TORONTO–(BUSINESS WIRE)–DREAM UNLIMITED CORP. (TSX:DRM) (“Dream” or the “Company”) today announced the closing of its previously-announced sale of Arapahoe Basin (“Arapahoe Basin” or the “Resort”), our ski area in Colorado, to Alterra Mountain Company (“Alterra”). Based on today’s exchange rate and internal estimates of taxes payable, management believes this results in after-tax profit of approximately $115 million after closing costs and adjustments.

“Arapahoe Basin has been a great investment for Dream and one that we are very proud of,” said Michael Cooper, Chief Responsible Officer of Dream. “We have had the honour of taking care of this Resort over the last quarter century, with a constant commitment to the visitor experience. We are thrilled that Alterra recognizes and shares the same values and will continue to foster its unique and incredible culture. The closing of this transaction greatly improves our financial flexibility and allows us to significantly reduce our debt load while rewarding our shareholders through a special dividend for making the choice to continue to hold our stock.”

Dream acquired Arapahoe Basin in 1997, at a time when the Resort only had 490 skiable acres. Over the last 27 years, together with the Arapahoe Basin management team, Dream expanded the ski area to 1,428 acres, replaced all of the lifts and most of the buildings and opened the two highest elevation restaurants in North America, Il Rifugio and Steilhang Hut.

The management team, including Alan Henceroth, Chief Operating Officer of Arapahoe Basin, will continue to lead the ski area into the future and maintain the values and brand that we are so proud to have been a part of. Alterra, a world class ski resort operator with a proven track record of investing in its resorts while maintaining their distinctive cultures, is in a strong position to continue to grow the customer experience, increase the Resort’s offerings, and build on the culture of the ski area.

The proceeds will be partially directed at repaying over $100 million of debt and maintaining financial flexibility, while a portion will be returned to shareholders through a special dividend of $1.00 per Class A Subordinate Voting Share and Class B Common Share, payable on December 31, 2024 to shareholders of record on December 13, 2024.

The dividends are designated as eligible dividends for the purposes of section 89 of the Income Tax Act (Canada).

Adjusted EBITDA is a non-International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) measure used by management that is not defined by IFRS. Adjusted EBITDA does not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and therefore may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. Management believes that Adjusted EBITDA provides meaningful and useful financial information as these measures demonstrate the operating performance of the business excluding non-cash charges.

“Adjusted EBITDA” is calculated as net income or loss before interest, income taxes, amortization, and depreciation, share based compensation, acquisition related expenses, listing expense, gain or loss on sale of assets, and impairment of assets.

Readers are cautioned that Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an alternative to net income as determined under IFRS; nor as an indicator of financial performance as determined by IFRS; nor a calculation of cash flow from operating activities as determined under IFRS; nor as a measure of liquidity and cash flow under IFRS. The Company’s method of calculating Adjusted EBITDA may differ from methods used by other companies and, accordingly, the Company’s Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similar measures used by any other company.

Making use of Ontario government changes and local municipal willingness, Marshall Homes cuts approval times, triples density, and passes down $20,000 in savings for future homebuyers in the Durham Region.

TORONTO–(BUSINESS WIRE)–In response to Ontario’s housing crisis, Marshall Homes has secured quick government collaboration to approve its new community of urban townhomes, “Time” in just five weeks — expediting conventional approval timelines. This groundbreaking acceleration of approving an Official Plan Amendment and Zoning Bylaw comes at a crucial moment when the province faces a dire shortage of affordable housing.

In addition to the speedy approval process, the original project proposal for “Time” was expanded from 27 homes to 81 homes, creating a 300% increase in much-needed homes within Durham Region. By reducing the approval process by 93% and completing the development proposal in just five weeks — compared to the typical 18-24 month timeframe — Marshall Homes is poised to make homeownership more attainable, with prices starting in the low $600,000s—far below the average attached housing price of $851,733 in the area. The accelerated approvals process and increased number of homes from the original proposal passes down $20,000 in interest and consultation savings for future homebuyers, making it one of the most affordable townhome options available in the region.

“I want to express my heartfelt gratitude to Mayor Collier, Premier Ford, Ajax Tarion, TRCA, and HCRA teams for their incredible support. Their response to progressive legislation truly makes a difference in improving affordability,” says Craig Marshall, Founder and President of Marshall Homes. “Their willingness to collaborate has allowed us to bring much-needed homes to market, mitigating the usual delays and extra costs that come with lengthy approval processes, which in turn allows us to pass savings down to homeowners. The urgency of more homes is getting through to all levels of governmental authority and more importantly to the people that work there. It is infectious.”

“Through initiatives like the “Time” project, we are demonstrating how effective collaboration between government and private developers can lead to innovative solutions for housing shortages,” said Shaun Collier, Mayor of the Town of Ajax. “We remain committed to supporting projects that not only provide homes but also contribute to the overall well-being of our communities.”

The architectural firm, Hunt Design Associates, designed the “Time” project. It features thoughtfully crafted urban bungalows and two-level townhomes. The designs prioritize accessibility and long-term livability, some with stair-free layouts that enhance residents’ comfort and functionality. The contemporary architecture features large windows that flood spaces with natural light. This serves to improve the quality of life and health for the homeowners.

• Leading manufacturers representatives focused on servicing the municipal water and wastewater treatment markets
• Leading vacuum pump sales, repair, and maintenance provider servicing the electronics, food & beverage, and biomedical markets
• Enhances DXP’s geographic reach and capabilities
• Continues to accelerate DXP’s end market diversification
• Attractive margins and cash flow

HOUSTON–(BUSINESS WIRE)–#DXPE—DXP Enterprises, Inc. (NASDAQ: DXPE) today announced that is has completed the acquisitions of Burt Gurney & Associates (“BGA”) and MaxVac Inc. (“MaxVac”). DXP funded the acquisitions with cash on the balance sheet.

BGA is a leading manufacturers representative in the municipal water and wastewater treatment headquartered in Omaha, Nebraska. MaxVac is a leading vacuum pump sales, repair and maintenance provider servicing the Central Valley and San Francisco, California markets focused on customers in the electronics, semiconductor, food & beverage, pharmaceutical and biomedical markets.

David R. Little, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer remarked, “We are pleased to welcome the Burt Gurney and MaxVac employees to the DXP team. Both are well-run businesses focused on providing value-added products and services to the water and vacuum pump markets. BGA will provide DXP’s Water division with new geographic territory and MaxVac will provide enhanced product and reach for DXP’s vacuum pump capabilities. BGA and MaxVac are great companies with key differentiators and provides us with high caliber people.”

Signing of the definitive agreements occurred on November 1, 2024. Sales and adjusted EBITDA for BGA and MaxVac for the last twelve months ending September 30, 2024, were approximately $11.7 million and $1.6 million, respectively. Adjusted EBITDA was calculated as income before tax, plus interest, depreciation and amortization, plus non-recurring items that will not continue after the acquisition.

Kent Yee, Chief Financial Officer added, “We are excited to welcome the talented and hardworking employees of Burt Gurney and MaxVac to the DXP team. The addition of BGA furthers us in our mission to build DXP Water into a full-line products and service focused platform servicing the municipal and industrial water and wastewater treatment markets. MaxVac provides us with a new platform to continue to scale and build vacuum pump, repair, and maintenance capabilities. We look forward to continuing on this path in 2025 as we scale DXP.”

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

DXP supplements reporting of net income with non-GAAP measurements, including EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow. This supplemental information should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the unaudited GAAP measurements. Additional information regarding EBITDA referred to in this press release is included below under “–Unaudited Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Information.”

The Company believes EBITDA provides additional information about: (i) operating performance, because it assists in comparing the operating performance of the business, as it removes the impact of non-cash depreciation and amortization expense as well as items not directly resulting from core operations such as interest expense and income taxes and (ii) the performance and the effectiveness of operational strategies. Additionally, EBITDA performance is a component of a measure of the Company’s financial covenants under its credit facility. Furthermore, some investors use EBITDA as a supplemental measure to evaluate the overall operating performance of companies in the industry. Management believes that some investors’ understanding of performance is enhanced by including this non-GAAP financial measure as a reasonable basis for comparing ongoing results of operations. By providing this non-GAAP financial measure, together with a reconciliation from net income, the Company believes it is enhancing investors’ understanding of the business and results of operations, as well as assisting investors in evaluating how well the Company is executing strategic initiatives.

DREAM IMPACT TRUST (TSX: MPCT.UN) (“Dream Impact”, “we”, “our” or the “Trust”) today reported its financial results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 (“third quarter”).

During the third quarter, the Trust closed on the sale of two office buildings, 10 Lower Spadina and 349 Carlaw, for net proceeds of $30.1 million. Funds were immediately used to repay the Trust’s credit facility balance, with the remaining proceeds slated for operating costs and capital spend. Completing these asset sales was important to the Trust’s liquidity goals, as we make further advancements on stabilizing our multi-family portfolio.

During the third quarter, CMHC announced a new program, the Frequent Builder Framework, to accelerate the construction of affordable rentals by expediting the application process for established housing providers. As part of the Dream group of companies, the Trust has been identified as eligible for the program. The Trust will continue to pursue financing opportunities with CMHC for the development of our existing and future pipeline of multi-family rental assets.

As previously reported, the Trust has a wholly owned 88,000 square foot (“sf”) property in downtown Toronto, referred to as 49 Ontario. The asset, including the adjacent land assembly, is slated for re-development with re-zoning that allows for 800,000 sf of residential density or approximately 1,200 rental units. Over the course of the year, the Trust has been working closely with various levels of government to better position the site for construction commencement and to bring in a partner for re-development. In light of policy changes, interest rate adjustments and favourable financing terms, the project could start construction within the next 12 months. We are continuing to evaluate opportunities to bring in a partner for the $700 million redevelopment and best position the Trust to unlock value from the asset while supporting our liquidity needs. Further updates will be provided as milestones progress.

“Over the last year we have made significant progress leasing up the completed apartment buildings, raising capital from asset sales and paying off our revolving credit facility,” said Michael Cooper, Portfolio Manager. “We are pleased with our progress on raising capital from asset sales and completing loan renewals. We have also made progress on the pre-development of Quayside and 49 Ontario. While the environment for residential development in Toronto is very challenging, we continue to make progress and are working towards commencement of these two large developments over the next 18 months.”

Selected financial and operating metrics for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 are summarized below:

	Three months ended September 30,					Nine months ended September 30,
(in thousands of dollars, except per Unit amounts)	2024		2023			2024		2023
Condensed consolidated results of operations
Net loss	$	(7,550)	$	(12,418)		$	(17,728)	$	(24,438)
Net operating income (“NOI”) – recurring income (“NOI-recurring income”)(1)		4,213		4,191			14,412		12,866
Net income (loss) per unit(1)		(0.42)		(0.72)			(0.99)		(1.43)
Units outstanding – end of period		18,110,940		17,287,196			18,110,940		17,287,196
Units outstanding – weighted average		18,106,406		17,260,369			17,891,403		17,074,952

As at	September 30, 2024		December 31, 2023
Condensed consolidated financial position
Total assets	$	691,074	$	707,426
Total liabilities		282,554		278,769
Total unitholders’ equity		408,520		428,657
Total unitholders’ equity per unit(1)		22.56		24.39

In the third quarter, the Trust reported a net loss of $7.6 million compared to $12.4 million in the prior year. The improvement in earnings was driven by the magnitude and composition of fair value adjustments in each period ($7.7 million), partially offset by normal course transaction costs related to the sale of 10 Lower Spadina and 349 Carlaw ($0.9 million), fluctuation in the deferred income tax recovery ($1.3 million) and interest expense recognized on multi-family assets in the lease-up phase which were previously capitalized ($0.5 million). Per the Trust’s accounting policy, interest is no longer capitalized once development assets are substantially complete.

Liquidity Update

As at September 30, 2024, the Trust had total cash-on-hand of $23.8 million and a debt-to-asset value⁽²⁾ of 39.7%, which was consistent with prior quarter due to offsetting movements.

As of period end, the Trust’s debt profile included $271.9 million of consolidated debt and its proportionate share of debt from equity accounted investments of $866.3 million. Of these amounts, $25.7 million matures in 2024 relating to two passive investments. Extensions for both facilities are in progress. A further $320.7 million of debt will mature in 2025, down significantly from the prior quarter as $122.3 million of refinancing activity was completed in the period. As of November 1, 2024, the Trust is in active discussions for extensions planned for $195.0 million of 2025 debt maturities.

For further details refer to the “Capital Resources and Liquidity” section of the Trust’s management’s discussion and analysis (“MD&A”) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024.

Recurring Income

During the third quarter, the Trust’s recurring income segment generated a net loss of $7.0 million compared to $17.1 million in the prior year. Net fair value losses of $4.9 million were recognized in the period, driven by discount and cap rate expansion on a commercial property in Ottawa, partially offset by gains at Aalto Suites, Aalto II and Maple House at Canary Landing due to leasing progress. In addition, earnings for the third quarter included $0.9 million in transaction costs related to the sale of 10 Lower Spadina and 349 Carlaw. Fair value adjustments were not directly comparable to prior year.

Multi-family rental properties

In the third quarter, same property NOI⁽¹⁾ was $1.7 million compared to $1.4 million in the prior year driven by higher monthly rents, lower operating expenses and a reversal of bad debt expense provided for earlier in the year.

Leasing continues to steadily progress at Aalto II and Maple House at Canary Landing which generated NOI⁽¹⁾ of $0.3 million for the Trust in the third quarter. As at September 30, 2024, in-place and committed occupancy was 76.4% at Aalto II and 74.4% at Maple House at Canary Landing. NOI⁽¹⁾ contribution from these assets will continue to increase as the assets achieve stabilization, anticipated by the end of 2025. In addition, Zibi Block 206 is in lease-up and is 50% leased as at September 30, 2024. The asset is expected to be transferred to the Trust’s recurring income segment in early 2025.

Over the course of the third quarter, construction continued to progress well at Birch House (238 multi-family units) and Cherry House (855 multi-family units) at Canary Landing in downtown Toronto. Leasing of units at Birch House launched in September and first occupancies are anticipated in the fourth quarter of 2024. Based on current construction timelines, we anticipate leasing at Cherry House to launch by the second half of 2025. The Trust has a 25% interest in the Canary Landing rental buildings.

Debt from the Trust’s multi-family portfolio carries a weighted average term of 4.9 years at a weighted average interest rate of 2.7%.

Commercial

In the third quarter, NOI⁽¹⁾ from commercial properties was $2.2 million compared to $2.7 million in the prior year. The decrease in NOI⁽¹⁾ was driven by lease terminations in specific office properties, in addition to the sale of 10 Lower Spadina and 349 Carlaw which closed mid-quarter. Partially offsetting this was NOI⁽¹⁾ contribution from the occupancy of the anchor tenant at 68-70 Claremont earlier in the year.

Development

In the third quarter, the development segment reported a nominal net loss compared to income of $3.1 million in the prior year. Prior year results included a fair value gain on Maple House at Canary Landing as the building achieved leasing milestones in the latter half of 2023 prior to its transfer to the recurring income segment.

In October 2024, the construction loan for Brightwater I and II was repaid using closing proceeds from units occupied. Subsequent to quarter end, occupancies at Brightwater Towns (106 units) commenced. The building is 98% sold and expected to close by mid 2025. Construction continues at the Mason (158 units) which is expected to occupy in the first half of 2025.

In the third quarter, the Trust transferred 98,000 sf of retail from Brightwater Phase I into the recurring income segment. As of November 1, 2024, approximately 52,000 sf of retail and commercial tenants have occupied at Brightwater, including LCBO, Farm Boy, Rexall, and BMO, with a further 3,000 sf expected to take possession by mid-2025.

During the third quarter, the Trust, alongside Dream Unlimited (“Dream”), launched the marketing of 3.27 acres of land at the 34-acre Zibi development, referred to as the Capital View Lands. The land, which has construction potential for approximately one million sf of space, is expected to be near the planned future Ottawa Senators arena site. The Capital View Lands are located in Gatineau, Quebec, adjacent to the Ottawa River. By bringing in a partner for the marketed site, we are able to accelerate the development pace for Zibi and reduce the in-place land loan for the project. The Trust has a 50% ownership interest in the Zibi development.

Income from this segment will fluctuate period to period and not contribute meaningfully to earnings until development milestones are achieved and/or project inventory is available for occupancy. While mindful of our capital spend and liquidity needs, on a strategic basis we continue to make advancements for select assets in the pre-development stage.

Other

In the third quarter, the other segment recognized a net loss of $0.5 million compared to net income of $1.5 million in the prior year. The fluctuation was driven by the income tax recovery due to the earnings composition in the period.
