Dream Unlimited Corp. (TSX: DRM) (“Dream”, “the Company” or “we”) today announced its financial results for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2024 (“fourth quarter”).
“On many fronts, 2024 was a positive and significant year for our business with our core operating divisions performing very well,” said Michael Cooper, Chief Responsible Officer. “Western Canada land produced its highest level of profit since going public in 2013 and is on track for another successful year. We continue to see steady expansion across our asset management platform, whether through institutional partnerships or expansion of our existing mandates, and the trajectory of growth for our income properties is at a point where it can achieve real scale. The office and GTA development markets continue to be challenged, however, we have accomplished all our key objectives we set out for in 2024. With the increasing chaos across our political and economic environment, our focus on managing liquidity is proving to be increasingly valuable so we can weather unexpected disruptions that may arise, and we are comfortable with our overall position from the diversity of our asset profile.”
Dream has published a supplemental information package on our website concurrent with the release of our fourth quarter results.
Highlights: Recurring Income (comprised of Income & Recreational Properties and Asset Management)
Highlights: Development (comprised of development activity in the GTA, National Capital Region and Western Canada)

About Dream Unlimited Corp.
Dream has an established and successful asset management business, inclusive of $27 billion of assets under management(1) as at December 31, 2024 across four Toronto Stock Exchange ("TSX") listed trusts, our private asset management business and numerous partnerships. We are a leading developer of exceptional real estate assets across Canada and Europe, including income properties that will be held for the long term as they are completed. We also develop land for sale in Western Canada. Dream has a proven track record for being innovative and for our ability to source, structure and execute on compelling investment opportunities. A comprehensive overview of our holdings is included in the "Summary of Dream's Assets and Holdings" section of our MD&A for the fourth quarter of 2024.
Non-GAAP Measures and Other Disclosures
In addition to using financial measures determined in accordance with International Financial Reporting Accounting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IFRS Accounting Standards”), we believe that important measures of operating performance include certain financial measures that are not defined under IFRS Accounting Standards. Throughout this press release, there are references to certain non-GAAP financial measures and ratios and supplementary financial measures, including Dream standalone FFO per share, Dream consolidated FFO per share, Dream standalone FFO, Dream consolidated FFO, Dream Impact Trust and consolidation and fair value adjustments, available liquidity, net operating income, standalone figures by division, fee earning assets under management and portfolio of stabilized properties, 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 Accounting Standards, 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 year ended December 31, 2024, dated February 25, 2025 (the “MD&A for the fourth quarter of 2024”) and can be found under the section “Non-GAAP Ratios and Financial Measures”, subheadings “Dream standalone FFO” and “Dream consolidated FFO”, “Dream standalone FFO per share” and “Dream consolidated FFO per share”, “Net operating income” and “Dream Impact Trust and consolidation and fair value adjustments”. The composition of supplementary financial measures included in this press release has been incorporated by reference from the MD&A for the fourth quarter of 2024 and can be found under the section “Supplementary and Other Financial Measures”. The MD&A for the fourth quarter of 2024 is available on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.com under Dream’s profile and on Dream’s website at www.dream.ca under the Investors section.
Non-GAAP Ratios and Financial Measures
"Dream Impact Trust and consolidation and fair value adjustments" represent certain IFRS Accounting Standards adjustments required to reconcile Dream standalone and Dream Impact Trust results to the consolidated results as at December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 and for the year ended December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023. Management believes Dream Impact Trust and 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", “Adjusted Dream standalone FFO”, "Dream consolidated FFO" and “Adjusted Dream consolidated FFO”, are non-GAAP financial measures and are key measures of our financial performance. We use Dream standalone FFO and Dream consolidated FFO to assess operating results and the pre-tax performance of our businesses on a divisional basis.
Dream standalone FFO is calculated as the sum of FFO for all of our divisions, excluding Dream Impact Trust and consolidation adjustments, and Dream consolidated FFO is calculated as Dream standalone FFO plus Dream Impact Trust and consolidation adjustments. Adjusted Dream standalone FFO and Adjusted Dream consolidated FFO include the gain on sale of Arapahoe Basin. We use Dream standalone FFO and Dream consolidated FFO, to assess operating results and the performance of our businesses on a divisional basis. The most directly comparable measure to Dream standalone FFO and Dream consolidated FFO is net income.
The following table defines and illustrates how Dream standalone FFO is calculated by division:

(i) |
Asset management includes our asset and development management contracts with the Dream group of companies and management fees from our private asset management business, along with associated costs. Included in asset management for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2024 are asset management fees from Dream Impact Trust received in the form of units of $444 and $1,685, respectively (three and twelve months ended December 31, 2023 - $472 and $3,454, respectively). These fees have been received in the form of units since April 1, 2019. Had the asset management fees been paid in cash, rather than in units, the fees earned for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2024 would have been $3,761 and $15,243, respectively (three and twelve months ended December 31, 2023 - $3,618 and $13,980). |
|
(ii) |
Dream group unit holdings includes our proportionate share of funds from operations from our 31.3% effective interest in Dream Office REIT and 11.9% effective interest in Dream Residential REIT, along with distributions from our 36.8% interest in Dream Impact Trust. Included in Dream group unit holdings for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2024 are distributions from Dream Impact Trust received in the form of units of $nil and $653, respectively (three and twelve months ended December 31, 2023 - $947 and $4,386, respectively). |
|
(iii) |
Included within consolidation adjustments in the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2024 are losses of $664 and income of $4,294, respectively, attributable to non-controlling interest (three and twelve months ended December 31, 2023 - $116 and $495, respectively, in losses). |

“Dream standalone FFO per share”, “Adjusted Dream standalone FFO per share” and “Dream consolidated FFO per share” are non-GAAP ratios. Dream standalone FFO per share is calculated as Dream standalone FFO divided by the weighted average number of Dream shares outstanding. Adjusted Dream standalone FFO per share is calculated as Adjusted Dream standalone FFO divided by the weighted average number of Dream shares outstanding. Dream consolidated FFO per share is calculated as Dream consolidated FFO divided by weighted average number of Dream shares outstanding. We use these ratios to assess operating results and the pre-tax performance of our businesses on a per share basis.
Dream standalone FFO per share and Dream consolidated FFO per share for the year ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 are shown in the table included under the "Funds From Operations" section of the MD&A for the fourth quarter of 2024. Adjusted Dream standalone FFO per share is reconciled above.
“Net operating income" is a non-GAAP measure and represents revenue, less (i) direct operating costs and (ii) selling, marketing, depreciation and other indirect costs, but including: (iii) depreciation; and (iv) general and administrative expenses. The most directly comparable financial measure to net operating revenue is net margin. This non-GAAP measure is an important measure used by management to assess the profitability of the Company's recurring income segment. Net operating income for the recurring income segment for the year ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 is calculated and reconciled to net margin as follows:

“Standalone Figures by Division” is a non-GAAP measure and represents the results of Dream, excluding the impact of Dream Impact Trust's consolidated results and IFRS Accounting Standards adjustments to reflect Dream’s direct ownership of our partnerships. Direct ownership refers to Dream Unlimited Corp.’s interest in subsidiaries and partnerships and excludes any non-controlling interest in the noted entities based on units held as of the end of the reporting period. The most direct comparable financial measure to Dream standalone is consolidated Dream. This non-GAAP measure is an important measure used by the Company to evaluate earnings against historical periods, including results prior to the acquisition of control of Dream Impact Trust.
