The sole business of the Company is the ownership of real property interests, consistent with a wellestablished investment policy.

PROPERTY NET ASSET VALUES (NAV) AT COST COMPARED TO CURRENT MARKET VALUES

The Net Asset Value Table is intended to illustrate the change in value of properties since they were acquired, net of the face value of mortgages and non-property debt. The property cost is the contracted purchase price without adjustments for transaction costs, depreciation and amortization. These measures are not recognized measures under GAAP or IFRS but are intended to provide readers with guidance of the trend in the asset values of the properties and the net asset values after debt since acquisition on a simplified basis.

CAPITAL STRUCTURE, FINANCING

The Company’s objectives when managing capital of $38,919,212 (2018 - $43,563,143), which is share capital, contributed surplus, equity component of convertible debentures, accumulated other comprehensive income, deficit, notes payable, mortgages payable, due to related parties, convertible debentures and long-term debt, are to safeguard its ability to continue as a going concern, so that it can continue to provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders, and to provide an adequate return to shareholders by pricing products and services commensurately with the level of risk.

The Company sets the amount of capital in proportion to risk. The Company manages the capital structure and makes adjustments to it in light of changes in economic conditions and the risk characteristics of the underlying assets. In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Company may adjust the amount of dividends paid to shareholders, return capital to shareholders, issue new common shares, or sell assets to reduce debt.

The Company monitors capital from time-to-time using a variety of measures. Monitoring procedures are typically performed as a part of the overall management of the Company's operations. The Company's strategy during the period, which was unchanged from the prior period, was to maintain its ability to secure access to financing at a reasonable cost. The requirements and terms of sources of capital cannot be predicted and change in ways the Company cannot predict.

SECTION IV

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that effect the reported amounts in the financial statements. Management bases its judgments, estimates and assumptions on factors it believes to be reasonable in the circumstances, but which may be inherently uncertain and unpredictable. The uncertainty of these judgments, assumptions and estimates could results in actual results that differ from the estimates and outcomes that require a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets and liabilities in the future.

(a) Judgements:

The following are critical accounting judgments that have been made in applying the Company’s accounting policies:

(i) Business combinations:

The Company acquires interests in entities that own investment properties. At the time of acquisition, the Company considers whether the acquisition represents a business combination or acquisition of a group of assets and liabilities. The Company accounts for an acquisition as a business combination where an integrated set of activities is acquired in addition to the investment property. When the acquisition does not represent a business combination, it is accounted for as an acquisition of a group of assets and liabilities, and the acquisition cost is allocated to the assets and liabilities acquired based on their relative fair values at the acquisition date. The Company may elect to use the concentration test as permitted and defined in the amendment to IFRS 3 to assess if a transaction could be accounted for as an asset acquisition

(ii) Investment properties:

The Company’s accounting policy relating to investment properties is described in note 3(d) of the Financial Statements. In applying this policy, judgment is applied to determine the significant components of each property, including the useful lives over which the componentized assets are to be amortized.

(iii) Going concern:

The assessment of the Company's ability to continue on a going concern basis, to obtain sufficient funds to cover ongoing operating expenses and to meet its obligations for the coming year involves a large part of judgment based on past experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are considered reasonable in the circumstances.

(b) Estimates:

The significant areas of estimation include the following:

(i) Fair value of the investment properties:

The fair value of investment properties disclosed in note 5 of the Financial Statements is determined by management.

11

REALIA PROPERTIES INC. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2019

The determination of the fair value of investment property requires the use of estimates such as future cash flows from assets (i.e., tenant profiles, future revenue streams and overall repair and condition of the property), discount rates applicable to those assets’ cash flows and capitalization rates. These estimates are based on market conditions existing at the reporting date.

(ii) Convertible debentures:

For convertible debentures containing an equity component, the Company assesses the value of the debt component which is calculated at the estimated fair value of the future interest and principal payments due under the terms of the convertible debentures, using an estimated discount rate based on Management’s estimated cost of capital.

For convertible debentures which do not contain an equity component, the Company is required to estimate the fair value of the embedded derivative liability which is calculated based on using a model which considers inputs requiring significant judgement.

NEW ACCOUNTING POLICIES ADOPTED IN THE CURRENT PERIOD

IFRS 16 - Leases

IFRS 16 was issued in January 2016 and applies to annual financial reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2019. IFRS 16 sets out the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases. IFRS 16 replaces IAS 17, Leases, and related interpretations. IFRS 16 eliminates the classification of leases as either operating leases or finance leases as is required by IAS 17 and, instead, introduces a single lessee accounting model. All leases result in the lessee obtaining the right to use an asset at the start of the lease and incurring a financing obligation corresponding to the lease payments to be made over time.

The adoption of IFRS 16 did not have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019.

RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

General Business Risks

The Company will be subject to general business risks and to risks inherent in the commercial real estate industry, including the ownership of real property. These risks include general economic and market factors, health crisis factors, tenant credit risk, local real estate conditions, competition, changes in government regulation, interest rates, the availability of equity and debt financing, environmental and tax related matters, availability of specialized trades people and reliance on key personnel. Any one of, or a combination of, these factors may adversely affect the financial position of the Company.

Real Property Ownership

All real property investments are subject to elements of risk. Such investments are affected by general economic conditions, local real estate markets, the attractiveness of the properties to residents, supply and demand for space, and competition from other available space and various other factors.

The performance of the economy in the area in which Martin Downs Town Center, Metro Gateway Shopping Center, and 116[th] Street Center (collectively called the “Properties”) are located affects occupancy, market

12

REALIA PROPERTIES INC. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2019

rental rates and expenses. These factors consequently can have an impact on the future share of income/(loss) attributable to the Company from the Properties.

Other factors may further adversely affect the future value of the Properties. These factors include local conditions in the areas in which the Properties are located, such as an oversupply of commercial real estate properties or a reduction in the demand for commercial real estate properties, the attractiveness of the Properties to tenants, competition from other properties and the Company’s ability to provide adequate facilities, maintenance, services and amenities. Operating costs, including real estate taxes, insurance and maintenance costs, and mortgage payments, if any, do not, in general, decline when circumstances cause a reduction in income from a property. The Company could sustain a loss as a result of foreclosure on the Properties if they are mortgaged to secure payment of indebtedness and the Company or its wholly-owned subsidiaries, as applicable, were unable to meet their mortgage payments. In addition, applicable laws, including tax laws, interest rate levels and the availability of financing also affect revenues from properties and real estate values generally.

Asset and Development Strategy

It is intended that the Company’s business strategy will involve expansion through acquisitions that are in addition to the Properties. These activities require the Company to identify acquisition candidates or investment opportunities that meet its criteria and are compatible with its growth strategy. The Company may not be successful in identifying commercial real estate properties that meet its acquisition criteria or in completing acquisitions or investments on satisfactory terms. Failure to identify or complete acquisitions will slow the Company’s growth. The Company could also face significant competition for acquisitions opportunities. Some of the Company’s competitors have greater financial resources than the Company and, accordingly, have a greater ability to borrow funds to acquire and develop properties. These competitors may also be willing and/or able to accept more risk than the Company can prudently manage, including risks with respect to the geographic concentration of investments and the payment of higher prices. This competition for investments may reduce the number of suitable investment opportunities available to the Company and may increase acquisition costs in certain areas where the Company’s facilities are located or in areas targeted for growth and, as a result, may adversely affect the Company’s operating results.

Even if the Company were successful in identifying suitable acquisitions projects, newly acquired properties may fail to perform as expected and management of the Company may underestimate the costs associated with the integration of the acquired properties. In addition, any expansions the Company undertakes in the future are subject to a number of risks, including, but not limited to, construction delays or cost overruns that may increase project costs, financing risks, the failure to meet anticipated occupancy or rent levels, failure to receive required zoning, land use and other governmental permits and authorizations and changes in applicable zoning and land use laws. If any of these problems occur, expansion costs for a project will increase, and there may be significant costs incurred for projects that are not completed. In deciding whether to acquire or expand a particular property, the Company will make certain assumptions regarding the expected future performance of that property.

It is intended that the Company will invest in new developments which carry a certain risk that projected financial returns may not be achieved and that cost overruns, or start-up losses may require further equity injections. The Company manages this risk through detailed evaluation of each development separately and ensuring certain criteria have been met, including an extensive supply and demand analysis and establishing capital participants.

13

REALIA PROPERTIES INC. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2019

Joint Venture and Associate Investments

The Company no longer has any interests in joint venture and associate investments as at December 31, 2019. The Company may however enter into arrangements with respect to other properties in the future. In any such arrangement, the Company may not be in a position to exercise sole decision-making authority regarding the properties owned through these arrangements. Investments may, under certain circumstances, involve risks not present when a third party is not involved, including the possibility that investment partners might become bankrupt or fail to fund their share of required capital contributions. Investment partners may have business interests or goals that are inconsistent with the Company’s business interests or goals and may be in a position to take actions contrary to the Company’s policies or objectives. Such investments also have the potential risk of impasse on strategic decisions, such as a sale, because neither the Company nor the investment partner would have full control over the arrangement. Any disputes that may arise between the Company and its investment partners could result in litigation or arbitration that could increase the Company’s expenses and distract its officers and/or directors from focusing their time and effort on the Company’s business. In addition, the Company might in certain circumstances be liable for the actions of its investment partners.

Investment Concentration

The Company will be susceptible to adverse markets in Palm City, Florida, Phoenix, Arizona, and Indianapolis, Indiana, the markets in which it is operating, such as changing demographics and other factors. Presently, the Company’s depreciated book value interests in Martin Downs Town Center in Palm City, Florida account for 41% of the Company’s real property assets, the Company’s interest in Metro Gateway in Phoenix, Arizona account for 28% of the Company’s real property assets and the Company’s interest in 116[th] Street in Indianapolis, Indiana accounts for 31% of the Company’s real property assets. As a result of this concentration of assets, the Company will be particularly susceptible to adverse market conditions in these regions. Any adverse economic or real estate markets in the areas in which the Properties are located, or in the future in any of the other markets in which the Company operates, or any decrease in demand for commercial real estate resulting from the local economy or demographics could adversely affect the rental revenues . This effect could impair the ability of the assets to service their debt obligations and generate stable positive cash flow from operations to generate a return for the Company.

Illiquidity

Real property investments tend to be relatively illiquid, with the degree of liquidity generally fluctuating in relation to demand for and the perceived desirability of such investments.

Uninsured Losses

Martin Downs Town Center, Metro Gateway Shopping Center and 116[th] Street Center will carry comprehensive general liability, fire, flood, extended coverage and rental loss insurance with policy specifications, limits and deductibles customarily carried for properties similar to the Properties. There are, however, certain types of risks, generally of a catastrophic nature, such as wars or environmental contamination, which are either uninsurable or not insurable on an economically viable basis. Should an uninsured or under-insured loss occur, the Company could lose its investment in, and anticipated profits and cash flows from the Properties.

Environmental Risk

As an indirect owner of real property in the United States, the Company is subject to various federal, state

14

REALIA PROPERTIES INC. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2019

and municipal laws relating to environmental matters. Such laws provide that the Company could be liable for the costs of removal of certain hazardous substances and repair of certain hazardous locations. The failure to remove or remediate such substances or locations, if any, could adversely affect the Company’s ability to sell such real estate or to borrow using such real estate as collateral and could potentially also result in claims against the Company.

Management is not aware of any material non-compliance with environmental laws with respect to the Properties. The Company is also not aware of any pending or threatened investigations or actions by environmental regulatory authorities in connection with the Properties. However, the Company cannot guarantee that any material environmental conditions do not or will not otherwise exist with respect to the Properties.

Public Market Risk

It is not possible to predict the price at which the Shares will trade and there can be no assurance that an active trading market for the Shares will be sustained. The Shares will not necessarily trade at values determined solely by reference to the value of the underlying business of the Company or its assets. Accordingly, the Shares may trade at a premium or a discount to the value implied by the value of the Company’s assets. The market price for the Shares may be affected by changes in general market conditions, fluctuations in the markets for equity securities and numerous other factors beyond the control of the Company.

15

REALIA PROPERTIES INC. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2019

Debt Financing

The Company and its owned subsidiaries have incurred and may incur indebtedness in the future in connection with the acquisition or expansion of facilities and its business. The wholly owned subsidiaries may incur unsecured debt or mortgage debt by obtaining loans secured by some or all of their real estate properties or assets. The Company’s wholly owned subsidiaries’ debt may harm the Company’s business and operating results by:

  • requiring the wholly owned subsidiaries to use a substantial portion of their cash flow from operations to pay principal and interest, which will reduce the amount of cash available for generating a return to the Company, and thus, other purposes;

  • limiting the Company’s ability to borrow more money for operating or capital needs or to finance acquisitions in the future; and

  • making the Company more vulnerable to economic and industry downturns and reducing its flexibility in responding to changing business and economic conditions.

In addition to the risks discussed above and those normally associated with debt financing, including the risk that the Company’s and its wholly owned subsidiaries’ cash flow will be insufficient to meet required payments of principal and interest, the Company will also be subject to the risk that the wholly owned subsidiaries will not be able to refinance potential future indebtedness on their properties and that the terms of any refinancing they could obtain would not be as favourable as the terms of their existing indebtedness. In addition, the financing arrangements of the Company may contain covenants that will restrict its ability to operate its business in certain ways. If the Company fails to comply with the restrictions in its financing arrangements, its lenders may be able to accelerate related debt as well as any other debt to which a crossdefault or cross-acceleration provision applies. A default could also allow creditors to foreclose, sell or realize on the property securing such debt or exercise other remedies against the Company. Credit facilities also typically require repayment of funds or cash flow sweeps when certain coverage ratios are not met. In connection with its financing arrangements, the Company expects that it will grant security interests over substantially all of its assets. If the Company is not able to meet its debt service obligations, it risks the loss of some or all of its assets to foreclosure or sale.

Interest Fluctuations and Financing Risk

The Company may finance future acquisitions in part with debt borrowings, which could bear interest at fixed or variable rates. The interest expense on any variable rate indebtedness of the Company will increase when interest rates increase. Interest rates are currently low relative to historical levels and may increase significantly in the future. A significant increase in interest expense could adversely affect the Company’s results of operations.

Failure to Obtain Additional Financing

The Company may require additional financing in order to grow and expand its operations. It is possible that such financing will not be available or, if it is available, will not be available on favorable terms. Future financing may take many forms, including debt or equity financing, which could alter the debt-to-equity ratio of the Company or which could be dilutive to Shareholders.

16

REALIA PROPERTIES INC. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2019

Dilution

The number of Shares that the Company is authorized to issue is unlimited. The directors of the Company will have the discretion to issue additional Shares in order to raise additional capital or in connection with future acquisitions, which may have a dilutive effect on Shareholders.

Potential Volatility of Share Price

It is not possible to predict the price at which the Shares will trade and there can be no assurance that an active trading market for the Shares will be sustained. The market price of the Shares may be volatile and could be subject to wide fluctuations due to a number of factors, including but not limited to: (i) actual or anticipated fluctuations in the Company’s results of operations; (ii) changes in estimates of the Company’s future results of operations by management or securities analysts; and (iii) general industry changes. In addition, the financial markets have in the past experienced significant price and value fluctuations that have particularly affected the market prices of equity securities of many venture and real estate issuers and that sometimes have been unrelated to the operating performance of these companies. Broad market fluctuations, as well as economic conditions generally and in the real estate industry specifically, may adversely affect the market price of the Shares.

Limited Prior Public Market

The Shares have a limited record of trading publicly on the Exchange. The Company cannot predict at what price the Shares will trade and there can be no assurance that an active trading market will be maintained. A publicly traded real estate company will not necessarily trade at values determined solely by reference to the underlying value of its real estate assets. Accordingly, the Shares may trade at a premium or a discount to values implied by valuations.

Proposed Acquisitions

There can be no assurance that the Company will complete further acquisitions of real property interests. Acquisitions of properties by the Company are subject to normal commercial risks and satisfaction of closing conditions that may include, among other things, lender approval, receipt of estoppel certificates and obtaining title insurance. Such acquisitions may not be completed or, if completed, may not be on the terms that are exactly the same as initially negotiated. In the event that the Company does not complete an acquisition, it may have an adverse effect on the operations and results of the Company in the future. There can also be no assurance that the Company will be able to identify and acquire additional real property interests on competitive terms or at all.

Potential Conflicts of Interest

Situations may arise where the interests of directors and officers may conflict with the interests of the Company. Conflicts, if any, will be subject to the procedures and remedies provided by the Canadian Business Corporations Act .

17

REALIA PROPERTIES INC. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2019

Foreign Currency

The results of operations of the Company are reported in Canadian dollars. The Company’s operations are anticipated to be conducted almost exclusively in the United States. Any fluctuations in the value of the US dollar relative to the Canadian dollar may result in variations in the share of income/(loss) from wholly owned subsidiaries and joint ventures and associates and the net income of the Company. The Company does not plan on undertaking any hedging in order to mitigate its foreign currency risks.

As at December 31, 2019, the Canadian dollar equivalent of monetary assets and liabilities held by the Company that are denominated in U.S. dollars are as follows:

2019 2018
Cash $ 9,359 $ 162,698
Notes payable 1,299,000 1,302,000
Accounts payable 60,215 102,069

If the Canadian dollar had strengthened or weakened 5 percent against the U.S. dollar with all other variables held constant, the Company would have additional income from foreign exchange included in net income and equity for the year ended December 31, 2019 of approximately $62,455 (2018 – $68,146).

Foreign Political Risk

The Properties are located in the United States and, as such, a substantial portion of the Company’s business will be exposed to various degrees of political, economic and other risks and uncertainties. The Company’s operations and investments may be affected by local political and economic developments, including expropriation, nationalization, invalidation of governmental orders, permits or agreements pertaining to property rights, political unrest, labour disputes, limitations on repatriation of earnings, limitations on foreign ownership, inability to obtain or delays in obtaining necessary permits, opposition to property development from local, environmental or other non-governmental organizations, government participation, royalties, duties, rates of exchange, high rates of inflation, price controls, exchange controls, currency fluctuations, taxation and changes in laws, regulations or policies as well as by laws and policies of Canada affecting foreign trade, investment and taxation.

Inability to Resell Shares

There can be no assurance that an active and liquid market for the Shares will be developed and, if developed, will be maintained; and a holder of Shares may find it difficult to resell those Shares.

Transaction costs, end of year (53,533) (124,910)
Convertible debentures $ 4,375,450 $ 4,169,461

The Company entered into a trust indenture on July 31, 2013 with BNY Trust Company of Canada under which the Company could issue convertible debentures to a maximum principal amount of $11,500,000.

The convertible debentures are redeemable, unsecured, subordinated to senior indebtedness and were set to mature on September 30, 2018. Interest at the rate of 8.5% per annum is payable quarterly in arrears. The convertible debentures are convertible into common shares of the Company at $0.08125 per share at any time prior to the close of business on the earlier of: ( i ) the date that is five days immediately preceding the maturity date, and ( ii ) if called for redemption, on the business day immediately preceding the date specified by the Company for the redemption of the convertible debentures.

Upon a change in control, the Company is required to make a redemption offer to all debenture holders equal to the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest and has the option to redeem all remaining debentures if 90% or more of the aggregate principal amount outstanding have been tendered for purchase under the redemption offer.

On September 28, 2018, the Debenture holders approved an Extraordinary Resolution authorizing (i) the maturity extension of the Debentures from September 30, 2018 to September 30, 2020; (ii) a reduction in the conversion price at which the Debenture may be converted into common shares of the Corporation from $0.08125 to $0.06 per common share; and (iii) an increase of the interest rate payable on the Debentures from 8.5% per annum to 9.5% per annum, which took effect as of October 1, 2018.

This transaction was accounted for as a debt extinguishment due to substantial modifications made to the original debt. Therefore, convertible debentures of $4,542,000 as at September 28, 2018 were derecognized and a new liability of $4,263,350 and an equity component of convertible debentures of $278,649 were accounted for, resulting in a gain on debt extinguishment of $222,510 in the consolidated statement of income (loss) and comprehensive loss. The Company determined the fair value of the new liability based on the net present value of future cash flows using a discount rate of 13%.

For the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company incurred $431,490 (2018 - $398,187) of interest on the convertible debentures, which is included in finance costs.

22

REALIA PROPERTIES INC. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2019

As a condition of the convertible debentures, the Company is required to maintain a debt service coverage ratio. At the end of each fiscal quarter in 2019 and as of year-end 2019, the Company was in compliance with the covenant.

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Subsequent to year-end, an outbreak of a new strain of coronavirus (COVID-19) resulted in a major global health crisis which continues to have impacts on the global economy and the financial markets at the date of completion of the financial statements.

These events are likely to cause significant changes to the assets or liabilities in the coming year or to have a significant impact on future operations. As the Company owns retail strip centers, several of the tenants have been deemed non-essential and have been required to close. The Company is actively working with the lenders and loan servicers to determine what options are available to help defer mortgage payments or utilize reserve funds to make monthly payments. The Company is also working with tenants by offering rent deferrals on a case by case basis so as to ensure that the Company, lenders and tenants emerge from the crisis together. However, it is impossible to determine the financial implications of these events for the moment.
