Mainstreet Announces Normal Course Issuer Bid (NCIB)
NOTICE OF CORRECTION TO NCIB DATES 2023-2024
CALGARY, Alberta–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Mainstreet Equity Corp. (“Mainstreet” or the “Corporation”) (TSX:MEQ) announced on May 31, 2023 that the Toronto Stock Exchange (“TSX”) has accepted its notice of intention to make a normal course issuer bid to purchase outstanding common shares of the Corporation (“Shares”) on the open market in accordance with the rules of the TSX. The May 31, 2023 news release incorrectly stated that the bid would commence on June 1, 2023 and terminate on May 31, 2024. The correct date for the commencement of the bid is June 3, 2023 and the bid will terminate on June 2, 2024. All other aspects of the May 31, 2023 release were correct. The information in the May 31, 2023 news release has been updated to correct these dates and is restated in the following paragraphs.
The Corporation is authorized to purchase up to 474,499 Shares under the normal course issuer bid, representing approximately 10% of its public float of issued and outstanding Shares, as of May 20, 2023. As of that date, there were 9,318,818 Shares issued and outstanding. The average daily trading volume of the Shares for the past six months ended April 30, 2023, calculated in accordance with the rules of the TSX, was 2,895 and Mainstreet is subject to a daily repurchase limit of 1,000 Shares. Mainstreet intends to commence the normal course issuer bid on June 3, 2023 and terminate the bid on June 2, 2024 or such earlier time as the bid is completed or terminated at the option of Mainstreet.
All shares purchased under this bid will be purchased in the open market through the facilities of the TSX and/or alternative Canadian trading systems at the prevailing market price at the time of such transaction. Shares acquired under the bid will be cancelled.
Mainstreet intends to acquire Common Shares from time to time in amounts and prices which its management believes are favourable and consistent with prudent economic and financial considerations. During the period between June 1, 2022 and the date hereof, Mainstreet repurchased 17,300 Shares under its previous normal course issuer bid, at an average weighted price of $114.81 per Share, with such repurchases being made through the facilities of the TSX and alternative Canadian trading systems. Mainstreet had approval from the TSX to acquire up to 477,109 Shares under such previous normal course issuer bid.
Mainstreet’s Board of Directors believes that, from time to time, the market price of its Shares may not reflect their underlying value. At such times, the Board of Directors believe that the purchase of Shares for cancellation pursuant to the normal course issuer bid is in the best interests of Mainstreet and its shareholders, as the cancellation of the Shares will increase the value of the remaining Shares.
Forward-Looking Information
Certain statements contained herein constitute “forward-looking statements” as such term is used in applicable Canadian securities laws. These statements relate to, among other things, Mainstreet’s intentions to acquire Shares pursuant to the normal course issuer bid, the timing of such bid and that the repurchase and cancellation of the Shares pursuant to the bid is in the best interests of the shareholders and that it will increase the value of the remaining Shares.

The Real Brokerage Opens For Business In South Dakota
TORONTO & NEW YORK–(BUSINESS WIRE)–$REAX #therealbrokerage–The Real Brokerage Inc. (TSX: REAX) (NASDAQ: REAX), the fastest-growing publicly traded real estate brokerage, today announced it has launched operations in South Dakota, expanding the company’s presence to 47 states and four Canadian provinces.
Josh Boschee, who serves as Real’s Principal Broker in North Dakota, also will assume responsibility for South Dakota. Real opens for business in South Dakota with the top-producing Christians Team Real Estate. The 16-member team, which is led by Jeff Christians, includes six agents who serve the Rapid City/Spearfish metropolitan area and two agents who are based in Phoenix.
“With relatively affordable housing and access to some of the best trails and lakes for year-round outdoor activities, South Dakota was one of the top 10 movers states in 20221. Real’s expansion into this growing housing market allows our agents to better serve their clients,” Real Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Tamir Poleg said. “We are thrilled to be launching our operations in South Dakota with an experienced broker like Josh as well as Jeff and his team, who not only know the market well, but who represent the region’s largest new home builders.”
Boschee said, “It’s exciting to be rounding out Real’s presence in America’s heartland. The company’s tech-powered platform and resources that are tailored to support the success of its agents will resonate in South Dakota, where the entrepreneurial spirit is alive and well.”
Ranked as one of the top teams serving the Northern Black Hills, Christians Team Real Estate has sold more than 1,400 homes over the past nine years. The team specializes in new construction, leveraging its relationships with the region’s leading developers to provide its clients with a seamless process that allows a buyer to move into their new home before closing on their old one. In 2022, Christians Team Real Estate sold 238 homes totaling $82 million.
“The move to Real made a lot of sense for our team. By leaning into technology and keeping overhead low, I believe Real is able to offer some of the most competitive compensation in the industry and still offer a robust platform for agents. In addition, through Real’s revenue sharing program, our agents have access to an additional source of income designed to build long-term wealth,” said Christians.
1According to United Van Lines 46th Annual National Movers Study.
