TORONTO -- (Business Wire)
Dream Unlimited Corp. (TSX: DRM) (“Dream”, “the Company” or “we”) today announced its financial results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 (“third quarter”).
“We continued to see the positive impact of our efforts to improve the safety and value of our business,” said Michael Cooper, Chief Responsible Officer. “Our western Canada development business is performing well in the current period and generating commitments for 2024 and 2025. We believe that this division will continue to perform well but will also increase its activity and profits over the next few years. Our multi-family rental portfolio continues to grow with residents moving in to Maple House at Canary Landing and Aalto II at Zibi. We expect to commence occupancy of another property in Zibi and Saskatoon before the year is out. Over the next three years, we expect to add over 2,300 units to our portfolio realizing on the years of work creating a purpose-built rental business. The division will add to development profits and recurring income. Together with the strong performance of our asset management business and our other stabilized assets, including Arapahoe Basin, the Company is well positioned for near and long term growth.”
For the first time, Dream has published a supplemental information package on our website concurrent with the release of our third quarter results. The package is aligned with our recent investor day presentation and provides shareholders a clearer view of our standalone results and provides information on how we evaluate our various divisions.
Highlights: Recurring Income
-
Revenue and net operating income(1) for the three months ended September 30, 2023 were $43.8 million and $13.0 million, respectively, up from $34.4 million and $9.9 million in 2022. The increases are primarily attributable to higher occupancy across our portfolio and growth in our fee-earning asset base. Similarly, revenue and net operating income(1) were $30.1 million and $9.9 million higher than the comparative nine-month period. We continue to focus on increasing our recurring income through growing our asset management business and completing purpose-built rentals within our development pipeline.
-
Revenue for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 includes $15.9 million and $47.3 million, respectively, in asset management fee revenue, compared to $10.1 million and $36.2 million in the comparative period. Earnings were driven by the more highly valued recurring income base fees in addition to higher development fees on our industrial portfolio. As of September 30, 2023, assets under management totaled $24 billion, an increase of 38% over year-end, and fee earning assets under management totaled $17 billion.
-
We continue to execute on our robust industrial development pipeline through Dream Industrial REIT and the private Dream Summit joint venture. As of September 30, 2023, we have a total of 2.8 million sf of development projects that are either currently underway or in planning stages with an expected yield on cost of approximately 6.4% upon completion.
-
In the nine months ended September 30, 2023, our portfolio of stabilized properties generated revenue and net operating income(1) of $93.9 million and $34.3 million, an increase of $14.2 million and $1.9 million, respectively over the prior period, largely driven by the growth in our multi-family portfolio in the GTA, National Capital Region and Western Canada. As of September 30, 2023, our portfolio comprises 1,800 apartment units (at project level) and is 97.6% occupied. We expect to add an additional 1,245 units to our portfolio in the remainder of the year that we expect to contribute to higher revenue and net operating income in the future.
-
On October 29, 2023, Arapahoe Basin opened for the 2023/2024 season, making it one of the first hills to open in North America this season. As of today, our season passes are 83% sold out.
-
Across the Dream group platform, which includes assets held through the Company, Dream Impact Trust, Dream Impact Fund, Dream Office REIT and Dream Residential REIT, we have a growing portfolio of 8,100 apartment units and 13.8 million sf of gross leasable area (“GLA”) in stabilized rental, retail and commercial properties, in addition to our recreational properties. Over the next four years, an additional 3,244 apartment units comprising 2.7 million sf of residential GFA is expected to be added to our recurring income portfolio (at project level) primarily relating to Canary Landing, Zibi, LeBreton Flats and Western Canada.
Highlights: Development
-
In the three months ended September 30, 2023, our development business generated $88.7 million in revenue and $16.2 million in net margin, an increase of $68.0 million and $18.0 million, respectively from the comparative period, primarily driven by the timing of sales in various communities in Western Canada.
-
In the third quarter of 2023, we achieved 400 lot sales and 28 housing occupancies primarily across our Alpine Park, Eastbrook, Maple, Elan and Vista Crossing communities in Regina, Edmonton and Calgary. As of November 14, 2023, we have secured commitments for an additional 66 lots and 5 acres across our Western Canada communities that we expect to contribute to earnings in the fourth quarter, along with 231 lots and 71 acres already secured for 2024 and 2025.
-
This quarter, we commenced occupancies at Brightwater I, our first completed condominium building at our 72-acre waterfront community in Mississauga’s Port Credit area. Brightwater II is expected to commence residential occupancy in early 2024 along with first commercial tenant possession of the combined 98,000 sf of commercial/retail GLA expected by the end of the year. Dream’s 31% interest in the Brightwater development is split 25%/75% between the Company and Dream Impact Trust.
-
In September, we welcomed the first residents at Maple House at Canary Landing, our 770-unit purpose-built rental building adjacent to our Canary and Distillery District neighbourhoods in Toronto. Maple House includes 231 units designated as affordable housing and offers nearly 40,000 sf in amenities, including over 17,000 sf of outdoor terraces, a state-of-art fitness centre and a co-working space. In addition to Maple House, we have another 1,093 rental units currently under construction at Canary Landing, inclusive of an additional 257 affordable units.
-
We also welcomed our first residents at Aalto II at Zibi this quarter, a 148-unit purpose-built rental building in Gatineau, Quebec and expect to commence occupancies at Common at Zibi, a 207-unit purpose-built rental inclusive of 48 co-living suites, by the end of the year.

-
Adjusted earnings before income taxes(1) for the three months ended September 30, 2023 was $3.7 million, down from $16.3 million in the comparative period. The decrease in earnings is primarily attributable to lower fair value gains on Dream Impact Trust units held by other unitholders and fair value losses on our investment property portfolio, partially offset by strong lot sales activity in western Canada and growth of our asset management platform.
-
Adjusted earnings before income taxes(1) for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was $66.2 million, down from earnings before taxes of $133.1 million in the comparative period due to fair value losses on investment properties, higher interest expense on our variable rate debt and $36.9 million in income related to condominium occupancies at Canary Commons in 2022 with limited activity in 2023. This was partially offset by the timing of lot sales in several of our communities in western Canada. Earnings from development can vary significantly quarter to quarter given seasonality and the timing of occupancy.
-
Adjusted Dream standalone funds from operations(1) (“FFO”) for the three months ended September 30, 2023 was $0.42 per share on a pre-tax basis, up from $0.08 per share in the comparative period, primarily due to stronger results from recurring income assets and development profits in western Canada. Adjusted Dream standalone FFO for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was $0.81 per share on a pre-tax basis, down from $1.63 per share in the comparative period, which included occupancies at Canary Commons.
-
As of September 30, 2023 the Company has available liquidity(2) of $305.3 million, in line with $302.6 million as of December 31, 2022.
-
In the nine months ended September 30, 2023, 0.2 million Subordinate Voting Shares were purchased for cancellation by the Company at an average price of $20.57 under a normal course issuer bid (“NCIB”) for total proceeds of $3.3 million (year ended December 31, 2022 - 0.4 million Subordinate Voting Shares at an average price of $39.53).
-
Dividends of $5.3 million and $16.0 million were declared and paid on our Subordinate Voting Shares and Class B Shares in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 (three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 - $4.3 million and $12.8 million, respectively).

A comprehensive overview of our holdings is included in the "Summary of Dream's Assets and Holdings" section of our MD&A.
Non-GAAP Measures and Other Disclosures
In addition to using financial measures determined in accordance with IFRS, we believe that important measures of operating performance include certain financial measures that are not defined under IFRS. Throughout this press release, there are references to certain non-GAAP financial measures and ratios including Dream standalone FFO per share, Dream consolidated FFO per share, Adjusted Dream consolidated FFO per share, Dream standalone FFO, Dream consolidated FFO, Adjusted Dream consolidated FFO net operating income, Dream Impact Trust, consolidation and fair value adjustments, and earnings before income taxes adjusted for Dream Office REIT, which management believes are relevant in assessing the economics of the business of Dream. These performance and other measures are not financial measures under IFRS, and may not be comparable to similar measures disclosed by other issuers. However, we believe that they are informative and provide further insight as supplementary measures of financial performance, financial position or cash flow, or our objectives and policies, as applicable. Certain additional disclosures such as the composition, usefulness and changes, as applicable, of the non-GAAP financial measures and ratios included in this press release have been incorporated by reference from the management’s discussion and analysis of Dream for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, dated November 14, 2023 (the “MD&A for the third quarter of 2023”) and can be found under the section “Non-GAAP Ratios and Financial Measures”, subheadings “Dream standalone FFO”, “Dream consolidated FFO” and “Adjusted Dream consolidated FFO”, “Dream standalone FFO per share”, “Dream consolidated FFO per share” and “Adjusted Dream consolidated FFO per share”, “Net operating income”, “Dream Impact Trust & Consolidation and fair value adjustments”, and “Earnings before income taxes adjusted for Dream Office REIT”. The composition of supplementary financial measures included in this press release has been incorporated by reference from the MD&A for the third quarter of 2023 and can be found under the section “Supplementary and Other Financial Measures”. The MD&A for the third quarter of 2023 is available on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca under Dream’s profile and on Dream’s website at www.dream.ca under the Investors section.
Non-GAAP Ratios and Financial Measures
“Adjusted earnings before income taxes” represents pre-tax earnings excluding earnings (loss) from equity accounted investments attributable to Dream Office REIT per Note 10 and net gain on land settlement per Note 19 of the condensed consolidated financial statements. The most directly comparable measure to adjusted earnings before income taxes is earnings (loss) before income taxes. This non-GAAP financial measure is an important measure used to assess the Company’s pre-tax earnings excluding non-cash and/or one-time transactional amounts.
"Dream Impact Trust & Consolidation and fair value adjustments" represent certain IFRS adjustments required to reconcile Dream standalone and Dream Impact Trust results to the consolidated results as at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022. Management believes Dream Impact Trust & Consolidation and fair value adjustments provides investors useful information in order to reconcile it to the Dream Impact Trust financial statements.
Consolidation and fair value adjustments relate to business combination adjustments on acquisition of Dream Impact Trust on January 1, 2018 and related amortization, elimination of intercompany balances including the investment in Dream Impact Trust units, adjustments for co-owned projects, fair value adjustments to the Dream Impact Trust units held by other unitholders, and deferred income taxes.
"Dream standalone FFO", "Dream consolidated FFO", “Adjusted Dream standalone FFO” and “Adjusted Dream consolidated FFO” are key measures of our financial performance. We use Dream standalone FFO, Dream consolidated FFO, Adjusted Dream standalone FFO and Adjusted Dream consolidated FFO to assess operating results and the pre-tax performance of our businesses on a divisional basis. The sum of FFO for all our divisions, or Dream consolidated FFO, is a non-IFRS measure. Refer to the "Non-GAAP Measures and Other Disclosures" section of the MD&A for further details.
The following table defines and illustrates how Dream standalone FFO is calculated by division:
