GC-Global Capital Corp. Announces its Financial Results for the Year Ended December 31, 2011

GC-Global Capital Corp. ("GC") (TSX VENTURE:GDE.A) is pleased to announce its
financial results for the year ended December 31, 2011.


GC is a merchant bank which provides bridge loan services (asset
back/collateralized financing), ranging from $300,000 to $3,000,000 to companies
across many industries such as oil & gas, mining, real estate, manufacturing,
retail, financial services, technology and biotechnology. GC takes a disciplined
and systematic approach to investment and is guided by four core principles:
Capital Preservation, Shareholder Value, Secure Generation of Income and Risk
Management. GC also invests in emerging North American companies across all
industries. GC's investments are made through equity financings and GC works
with management of operating companies in order to create value for businesses
in which GC assumes a position. These services can include additional equity
financing, developing mergers and acquisitions, providing operational management
support and structuring and negotiating debt and equity placements. 


The Company focuses on 3 main long-term, financial measurements:



1.  Long-term/profitable investments 
2.  Maintaining strong capital and liquidity 
3.  Managing the success of its equity and investment portfolios

GC has 4 business activities or investments:                                

1.  Structuring Deals/Bridge Loans ("Deals") 
2.  Market Investments ("Investments") 
3.  Equity stakes in private companies ("Private Companies") 
4.  Property/Land Investments ("Land")



Overall 2011 Performance

As noted above, GC's income is generated from 4 different business activities,
some active (Deals, Investments and Private Companies) and some passive (Land).
Correspondingly, revenues are presented to show the performance of each of these
activities. As is common for all businesses, the performance of each of these
business activities or investments will affect the Company's balance sheet and
income statements in different ways which include the impact of non-operating
activity, or adjusting the values to passive investments. As GC holds a
significant portfolio of passive and equity investments, the presentation of the
financial statements is greatly dependent on the valuation of these assets, due
to market conditions in 2011 regardless of whether these investments are being
held for the long term. With this in mind, it must be understood that the
balance sheet presentation is greatly affected by the performance of the passive
and equity investments and to a lesser extent the active investments. Going
forward, the Company will be identifying opportunities to help the management of
its equity investments improve the value of its active and equity investments
through discussions on how they can improve their net income and corresponding
asset value. As required for passive investments, they are valued according to
IFRS requirements and any change in the value of these passive investments is
recognized by adjustments to their value on the balance sheet and corresponding
income statement impacts from these non-operating activities. These financial
statements must be read with this perspective as accounting presentation does
not always allow the flexibility to present forward looking values for long term
equity and property investments. The Company anticipates that the valuation of
the equity and property investments will reflect improvements in their
respective sector opportunities and market conditions over the coming years.


As per the 2011 press releases, the Company is adjusting its equity investments
in Private Companies in conjunction with the changing business cycle. New equity
investments were added in 2011 which have no comparable in 2010. Business
activities and investment valuations reflect significant changes to the economic
climate of each market segment. To this end, the following discussion includes
additional information for the sole purpose of simplifying year over year
comparisons which may not be immediately evident when comparing the financial
activities and portfolio investments common to both years. 


As at December 31, 2011 GC's net assets were valued at $10.5 million or $0.58
per share compared to $15.6 million or $0.81 per share as at December 31, 2010.
The $5.1 million dollar change in net assets is a combination of $4.1mm in net
loss (mostly due to the valuation of equity and property investments and
unrealized losses on fair value through profit or loss investments), $0.6mm in
other comprehensive loss and $0.4mm in share buybacks through the Company's
Normal Course Issuer Bid ("NCIB"). 


The net loss for the year ended December 31, 2011 was $4,110,050 (2010 -
$46,751) and net comprehensive loss was $4,707,693 (2010 - $81,277). The bulk of
the loss from the following 6 non-cash, valuation related sources may not be
realized in the future: $1,338,569 due to unrealized losses on fair value
through profit or loss investments (2010 - gain of $217,870), $969,619 provision
for loan losses (2010 - $515,000), $745,176 loss on the valuation of investments
using the equity method (2010 - loss of $51,153), $521,494 on write down of
investment properties (2010 - $96,927), $450,976 for permanent impairment on
portfolio investments (2010 - $143,318) and $600,000 write-down of a deferred
income tax asset (2010 - $0). Net loss per share was $0.22 (2010 - $0.00).
Excluding the 6 income statement items noted above, the adjusted net profit
before tax per share was $0.03 (2010 - profit of $0.03) Also included in net
loss for the year ended 2011 is a non-recurring settlement of contingency in the
amount of $75,000 (2010 - $288,990). In 2012, the management team is focusing on
reversing the impact of non-cash, valuation sources where possible. Efforts to
reverse these non-cash expenses will focus on: 1) recovering capital from legacy
bridge loans which have been written down, 2) identifying opportunities to
reduce the provision for loan losses, 3) improving the valuation of equity
investments through working with management to drive net profit, 4) capturing
improvements in the United States real estate market. 


The majority of the losses for 2011 stem from write downs of legacy real estate
holdings and the bridge loan related to the museum exhibition called the Las
Vegas Mob Experience ("LVME"). Global Capital continues to pursue through the
courts, the assets of the LVME as part of its recovery process, which it expects
to be resolved in 2012. Regarding the state of the U.S. real estate recovery, we
continue to monitor the markets of North Carolina, New Mexico and Georgia where
the real estate holdings are located. We believe these markets are showing signs
of healing and expect relative improvement in these markets this year and next.
The combination of the sluggish U.S. real estate market along with the lengthy
legal process of the U.S. courts required the company to take conservative
measures and write down these assets with the goal of creating an asset base and
net asset value per share to now grow from.


In the second half of 2011 and leading into 2012, Global Capital made the
strategic decision to refocus its resources and management team to support its
repositioning as a merchant bank. Over the past few months, three new directors
joined the company's board enhancing the board's skills in securities law,
public reporting and finance. The company's governance has been enhanced with
modification to oversight committees. The recent appointment of Mr. Robert
Parent as Chief Operating Officer demonstrates Global Capital's commitment to
strengthening the management team by adding a focus on operations that is
consistent with the Company's recent investments in Marathon Mortgage
Corporation, Fletcher Business Park, Attorneys Title Guarantee Fund, Inc. and
Tanenbaum Landscape & Design Inc. These investments are expected to drive a
growing portion of Global Capital's value in the second half of 2012. In
addition the board and executive have made the strategic decision to co-locate
Global Capital's head office with the Marathon Mortgage Corporation's head
office to provide assistance as the business launches its operations. 


Strategic Investments;



1.  Marathon Mortgage Corporation 



In November, 2011, Global Capital announced that it had become one of the
founding shareholders of Marathon Mortgage Corporation ("MMC"), a residential
mortgage origination, sales and servicing business. Global Capital raised
$7,801,000 on MMC's behalf of which Global Capital subscribed for and purchased
2,750,000 Preferred Shares and 2,138,890 Common Shares of Marathon Mortgage
Corporation ("MMC") for a total subscription price of $2,750,213.89. In early
2012, MMC applied to CMHC for approval to commence CMHC insured mortgage
origination and servicing in 2012. MMC brings together the former management
team of First Marathon Mortgage Corp. which at the time of its sale in 2002 was
servicing approximately $4 Billion in mortgages. 


Through the MMC management team's alliances with major financial institutions
and mortgage brokerage firms, MMC's goal is to become one of the most reliable
residential and commercial mortgage lenders in Canada, providing mortgage
products with competitive rates, terms and features supported by reliable
service and quick approval turnaround to its borrowers and broker partners. MMC
will underwrite prime-insured and conventional residential and commercial
mortgages that will be sold to mortgage investors, such as banks or trust
companies, co-operatives, securities firms and insurance companies. MMC expects
to retain the majority of servicing for these mortgages. 


MMC's Board of Directors includes:



-Stuart Henry, Chairman                                                     
-Harold Kennedy, President and CEO                                          
-Michael MacKenzie                                                          
-Hank Cunningham                                                            
-Chris Kauffman                                                             



Global Capital's was the lead order of MMC Preferred and Common Shares in a
financing of MMC which raised $7,801,000. The Preferred Shares are expected to
yield a cumulative annual dividend equal to 8% of the issue price and the
Preferred Shares are also redeemable at a redemption price equal to the issue
price. It is expected that MMC will redeem all of the Preferred Shares within
four years. 


As consideration for being the lead order on the MMC financing, Global
negotiated and entered into a Put/Call arrangement pursuant to which Global may
purchase, or MMC may require Global to purchase, an additional 1.2 million
Preferred Shares and 933,333 Common Shares for an aggregate purchase price of
$1,200,093. The Put/Call shall remain available for exercise for a period of
five years; however, MMC cannot exercise their Put rights until after one year
from the date of closing of the MMC financing.


At the time of closing, Global Capital's CEO, Jason Ewart, commented "This
transaction represents a significant investment for Global Capital. Given the
track record of their previous company, First Marathon Mortgage Corp., we
believe that this management team can once again create a leading national
mortgage company."




2.  Tanenbaum Landscape & Design Inc.:



In 2011 closed a joint venture called TGC Acquisition Corp. ("TGC") with
Rossmore and Partners Investments Corp. ("Rossmore"), under which the parties
completed the acquisition of DDR Landscaping Contractors Ltd. ("DDR" and was
subsequently renamed Tanenbaum Landscape & Design ("TLD"). The principal of
Rossmore and Global Capital's partner in the deal, Susan Tanenbaum, has more
than 20 years of senior management experience with industrial companies and has
worked throughout the United States and Canada. Global Capital and Rossmore have
an equal interest in the joint venture. Of the $2.5 million purchase, GC
provided $1,000,000, Rossmore provided an additional $500,000 and the sellers
provided a $1-million vendor take back loan for the balance of the purchase
price. Based in Oakville, TLD is a commercial site contractor in the Ontario
region. TLD is showing growth in operating results in 2012, adding to its
pipeline of project contracts and expanding its business from its historical
focus of municipal contracts into the private sector commercial landscaping
industry.




3.  Fletcher Business Park, North Carolina:



Global Capital holds a 12.5% (thru a wholly owned U.S. subsidiary which has a
51% ownership interest in an LLC that owns a 25% ownership stake) in the
Fletcher Business Park, a 900,000 square foot commercial building located on a
46 acre parcel of land outside of Asheville, North Carolina. Vacancy rate is
currently two percent. In early 2012, the controlling shareholder of Fletcher
Business Park, Pulliam Properties Inc., informed Global Capital that they expect
to market the property for sale in 2012 at a price range beginning at
US$18,000,000. Net of the current bank mortgage on the property, the approximate
net proceeds to Global Capital would be US$1,500,000. 




4.  Attorney's Title Guarantee Fund ("ATGF"):



Based in Denver, Colorado, ATGF is a fifty-two year old full service underwriter
servicing independent title agents in the states of Colorado, Minnesota, Utah
and South Dakota. Title insurance is issued throughout a vast network of
licensed title agents in each state. Global Capital and its partner, Toronto
based Lawyer Done Deal ("LDD"), acquired control of the company in 2011 with an
investment of $1.2 million. Leveraging off of LDD's expertise in web-based
business applications within the real estate market, a new software platform is
being implemented into ATGF to enhance functionality and efficiency. Such
capabilities as funds handling, multiple underwriter capabilities and the
automation of ATGF's back-end operations are expected to increase the company's
efficiency, tracking of agent transactions and offer new revenue streams thereby
increasing ATGF's market share.
