Urbanfund Corp. Reports Financial Results for the Year Ended December 31, 2012

Mitchell Cohen, President and Chief Executive Officer of Urbanfund Corp. (TSX
VENTURE:UFC) (the "Company"), confirmed today that the Company has filed
financial results for the year ended December 31, 2012 (the "Consolidated
Financial Statements"). 


For the year ended December 31, 2012 the Company reported earnings before income
taxes of $3,287,926 on revenue of $3,414,495 compared to earnings before income
taxes of $4,400,968 on revenue of $3,642,924 for the corresponding year in 2011.
The decrease in earnings was primarily related to a loss on the disposal of the
Richmond Property in August 2012. 


Rental income decreased to $3,414,495 for the period ended December 31, 2012
from $3,642,924 for the corresponding period ended 2011. This was a result of
receiving only 10 months in revenue from the Richmond Property prior to its
sale. Although financing costs decreased, administrative costs for the year
ended December 31, 2012 was $623,519 as compared to $313,585 for the
corresponding period in 2011. This increase was directly related to payment of
the Company's share of on-site maintenance salaries at the Richmond Property,
which accumulated over a 2 year period and was required to be paid on closing of
the sale of the Richmond Property.


Loss on sale of $426,524 represents the Company's share of the closing costs
associated with the disposal of the Richmond Property. Of this amount, $330,169
represents a notional discharge fee of a mortgage which bore interest at 5.5%
and was due in 2016 (see Note 9 of the Consolidated Financial Statements).


Rental expenses for the year ended December 31, 2012 decreased to $1,218,799
compared with $1,333,962 for the corresponding period in 2011. The decrease was
attributed to the disposal of the Richmond Property in the third quarter of 2012
and a concentration on reducing general repairs and maintenance expenditures at
all properties. 


Funds from operations ("FFO") for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 are
as follows:

Funds From Operations (FFO)                   $600,807             $956,765 
----------------------------------------------------------------------------



For the year ended December 31, 2012, the Company reported a decrease in FFO to
$600,807 compared with $956,765 for the period ended December 31, 2011. This
decrease was caused primarily by increase in the unrealized gain on marketable
securities and the loss on sale of the Richmond Property.


FFO is a non-GAAP performance measure used by the Company to improve the
understanding of operating results for the investing public. FFO is not a
measure recognized under Canadian generally accepted accounting principles
("GAAP") and does not have a standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP. Therefore,
FFO may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers.
However, the Company presents its FFO in accordance with the Real Property
Association of Canada (REALpac) White Paper on Funds from Operations published
on November 30, 2004 and revised in February, 2007.


FFO, or any other non-GAAP performance measure, is not intended to represent
operating profits for the period or from a property. Furthermore, it should not
be viewed as an alternative to net income, cash flow from operating activities
or similar measures of financial performance calculated in accordance with GAAP.


As of December 31, 2012, the Company had cash on hand in the amount of
$3,763,406 ($920,972 as at December 31, 2011), marketable securities of
$1,053,111 ($682,650 as at December 31, 2011) and short term investments in the
amount of $3,617,951 ($3,582,032 as at December 31, 2011).


As at December 31, 2012, the Company had mortgages payable in the amount of
$14,133,905 which was comprised of: (i) $8,220,956 representing a mortgage
payable for the Don Mills Property; and (ii) $5,912,949 representing a mortgage
payable for the Belleville Property and London Property.
