NexLiving Communities Comments on the Impact of New Brunswick’s Property Tax Relief Program

June 06 2022

HALIFAX, NS, June 6, 2022 /CNW/ (TSXV: NXLV) – NexLiving would like to clarify the impact of recent announcements by the Government of New Brunswick to provide a 10% cap on property tax assessments over the next two years, for most apartment and commercial buildings. In the quarter ended March 31, 2021, NexLiving had accrued a higher non-cash property tax expense than is now expected to be experienced in the 2022 fiscal year. The Company expects to reverse the higher expense in subsequent quarters, which will have a materially positive impact on the Company's net operating income going forward.

NexLiving continues to believe that New Brunswick is one of the best residential real estate markets to invest in Canada, given the growing economy combined with a low cost of living, which is leading to one of the highest population growth rates in Canada. The recently announced Property Tax Relief Program provides confidence that the municipal and provincial governments are supportive of the continued investment needed in new housing in the province.

Non-IFRS Financial Measures

The Company prepares and releases unaudited consolidated interim financial statements and audited consolidated annual financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS. In this and other earnings releases, as a complement to results provided in accordance with IFRS, NexLiving discloses financial measures not recognized under IFRS which do not have standard meanings prescribed by IFRS. These include Net operating income (NOI), funds from operations (FFO), FFO per common share and D/GBV (collectively, the "Non-IFRS Measures"). These Non-IFRS Measures are further defined and discussed in the MD&A released on April 18, 2022, which should be read in conjunction with this news release. Since these measures are not recognized under IFRS, they may not be comparable to similar measures reported by other issuers. The Company presents the Non-IFRS measures because management believes these Non-IFRS measures are relevant measures of the ability of NexLiving to earn revenue and to evaluate its performance and cash flows. A reconciliation of these Non-IFRS measures is included in the MD&A released on April 18, 2022. The Non-IFRS measures should not be construed as alternatives to net income (loss) or cash flows from operating activities determined in accordance with IFRS as indicators of the Company's performance.

Neither the TSX Venture Exchange nor its Regulation Services Provider (as that term is defined in the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange) accepts responsibility for the adequacy or accuracy of this press release.
