*Non-GAAP Measures

InterRent prepares and releases unaudited quarterly and audited consolidated annual financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS (GAAP). In this and other earnings releases, as a complement to results provided in accordance with IFRS, InterRent also discloses and discusses certain non-GAAP financial measures, including NOI, FFO, AFFO, DI and weighted average units. These non-GAAP measures are further defined and discussed in the MD&A released on November 10, 2014, which should be read in conjunction with this press release. Since NOI, FFO, AFFO and weighted average units are not determined by IFRS, they may not be comparable to similar measures reported by other issuers. InterRent has presented such non-GAAP measures as Management believes these measures are relevant measures of the ability of InterRent to earn and distribute cash returns to Unitholders and to evaluate InterRent’s performance. These non-IFRS measures should not be construed as alternatives to net income (loss) or cash flow from operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP as an indicator of InterRent’s performance.
