Tricon Delivers Solid Q1 2023 Results and Reiterates Full-Year Guidance

Tricon Residential Inc. (NYSE: TCN, TSX: TCN) ("Tricon" or the "Company"), an owner and operator of single-family rental homes in the U.S. Sun Belt and multi- family rental apartments in Canada, announced today its consolidated financial results for the three months ended March 31, 2023.

All financial information is presented in U.S. dollars unless otherwise indicated.

The Company reported strong operational and financial results in the first quarter, including the following highlights:

• Net income from continuing operations was $29.4 million in Q1 2023; basic and diluted earnings per share from continuing operations were $0.10 and $0.08, respectively;

• Core funds from operations ("Core FFO") for the first quarter of 2023 was $42.2 million compared to $43.0 million in the first quarter of 2022 and Core FFO per share remained flat year-over-year at $0.14. The change in Core FFO was driven by strong Net Operating Income ("NOI") growth of 17.9% for the single-family rental portfolio that was largely offset by an increase in borrowing costs to support the expansion of the SFR portfolio and a loss of Core FFO contribution from the U.S. multi-family rental portfolio, which was sold in Q4 2022;¹

• Same home NOI growth for the single-family rental portfolio in Q1 2023 was 6.2% year-over- year and same home NOI margin increased by 0.9% to 69.5%. Same home operating metrics remained strong, including occupancy of 97.3%, annualized turnover of 16.8% and blended rent growth of 7.2% (comprised of new lease rent growth of 10.3% and renewal rent growth of 6.5%);¹

• The Company acquired 409 homes during the quarter at an average price of $318,000 per home (including up-front renovations) for a total acquisition cost of $130 million, of which Tricon's proportionate share was $40 million;

• Positive trends continued into the second quarter, with same home rent growth of 7.6% in April 2023, including 11.9% growth on new leases and 6.5% growth on renewals, while same home occupancy was stable at 97.2% and same home turnover remained low at 17.8%; and

• On March 10, 2023, SFR JV-HD entered into two new term loan facilities, each with a total commitment of $150 million, a term to maturity of five years, and a fixed interest rate of 5.96%. These facilities are secured by pools of 707 and 696 single-family rental properties. The loan proceeds were primarily used to pay down existing short-term floating rate debt and to fund the acquisition of new rental homes within SFR JV-HD.

"Tricon’s first quarter results represent a solid start to the year, underpinned by a continuation of supportive demand fundamentals. Housing in America has a math problem - demographics are driving demand for single-family homes from both buyers and renters; meanwhile the supply of new homes is not keeping pace,” said Gary Berman, President & CEO of Tricon. "Tricon fulfills a critical need in the market by providing working families with quality rental homes in good neighborhoods at an accessible price point, and it’s clear from our results that there is a real need for what we offer. We see this firsthand in our high volume of leasing inquiries quarter after quarter, resulting in nearly-full same home occupancy of 97.3% in Q1, consistently low annualized turnover of 16.8%, and our ability to steadily and responsibly increase rents. As we look ahead, we are cautiously optimistic that financing and acquisition conditions will become more favorable for our SFR business, enabling us to double our acquisition pace in Q2 while continuing to buy homes at blended cap rates at or above our cost of long-term financing. Although it’s still early days, we remain confident in our guidance for same home NOI growth, Core FFO and acquisitions for the year.”

Net income from continuing operations in the first quarter of 2023 was $29.4 million compared to $150.1 million in the first quarter of 2022, and included:

• Revenue from single-family rental properties of $188.5 million compared to $138.8 million in the first quarter of 2022, driven primarily by growth of 16.3% in the single-family rental portfolio to 36,104 homes, an 8.7% year-over-year increase in average effective monthly rent (from $1,625 to $1,767) and a 1.1% increase in total portfolio occupancy to 94.9%.

• Direct operating expenses of $62.1 million compared to $45.5 million in the first quarter of 2022, driven primarily by growth in the rental portfolio, and higher property tax expenses associated with increasing property value assessments, as well as general cost and labor market inflationary pressures.

• Revenue from strategic capital services (previously reported as Revenue from private funds and advisory services) of $15.1 million, compared to $12.4 million in the first quarter of 2022, reflecting higher Johnson development fees and performance fees from legacy for-sale housing projects. This was partially offset by lower asset management fees and property management fees following the sale of Tricon's remaining interest in the U.S. multi-family rental portfolio in Q4 2022.

• Fair value gain on rental properties of $11.9 million compared to $299.6 million in the first quarter of 2022, attributable to a moderation in home price appreciation within the single- family rental portfolio given the current climate of higher mortgage rates and rising economic uncertainty.

Core funds from operations ("Core FFO") for the first quarter of 2023 was $42.2 million compared to $43.0 million in the first quarter of 2022. The change was driven by strong NOI growth in the SFR business that was largely offset by an increase in borrowing costs incurred to support the expansion of the SFR portfolio and a loss of NOI and fee income from the disposition of the U.S. multi-family rental portfolio; the sale of this portfolio in October 2022 generated $319.3 million of gross proceeds used to pay down debt and strengthen Tricon's balance sheet for future growth.

Adjusted funds from operations ("AFFO") for the first quarter of 2023 was $33.0 million compared to $33.6 million in the same period in the prior year. This movement in AFFO was driven by the change in Core FFO discussed above, partially offset by lower recurring capital expenditures following the sale of Tricon's remaining interest in the U.S. multi-family rental portfolio.

Single-Family Rental Operating Highlights

The measures presented in the table below and throughout this press release are on a proportionate basis, reflecting only the portion attributable to Tricon's shareholders based on the Company's ownership percentage of the underlying entities and excludes the percentage associated with non-controlling and limited partners' interests, unless otherwise stated. A list of these measures, together with a description of the information each measure reflects and the reasons why management believes the measure to be useful or relevant in evaluating the underlying performance of the Company’s businesses, is set out in Section 6 of Tricon's MD&A.

Single-family rental NOI was $74.6 million for the first quarter of 2023, an increase of $11.3 million or 17.9% compared to the same period in 2022. The higher NOI was mainly driven by a $16.2 million or 18.0% increase in rental revenues as a result of an 8.7% increase in the average monthly rent ($1,767 in Q1 2023 vs. $1,625 in Q1 2022) and 5.6% portfolio growth (Tricon's proportionate share of rental homes was 21,380 in Q1 2023 compared to 20,253 in Q1 2022). This favorable change in rental revenue was partially offset by a $5.0 million or 16.0% increase in direct operating expenses reflecting incremental costs associated with a larger portfolio of homes, higher property taxes attributable to increased assessed property values, and growth in property management costs reflecting the portfolio expansion and a tighter labor market.

Single-family rental same home NOI growth was 6.2% in the first quarter of 2023, primarily attributable to revenue growth of 4.9%, driven by a 7.4% increase in average monthly rent ($1,706 in Q1 2023 compared to $1,589 in Q1 2022), partially offset by a 60 basis point decrease in occupancy to 97.3%. This favorable growth in rental revenue was partially offset by a reduction in other revenue and a 2.0% increase in operating expenses reflecting higher property taxes and Homeowners' Association ("HOA") costs, offset primarily by lower turnover, repairs and maintenance expenses through effective cost containment efforts.

Single-Family Rental Investment Activity

The Company expanded its single-family rental portfolio by acquiring 409 homes during the quarter, bringing its total managed portfolio to 36,525 homes. The homes were purchased at an average cost per home of $318,000, including up-front renovations, for a total acquisition cost of $130 million, of which Tricon's share was approximately $40 million.

Adjacent Residential Businesses Highlights

Quarterly highlights of the Company's adjacent residential businesses include:

• In the Canadian multi-family business, The Selby's occupancy remained stable at 97.4%, supported by strong demand fundamentals. Annualized turnover rate improved to 22.4% from 23.2% year-over-year. Blended rent growth moderated to 6.6% during the quarter, in part driven by a reduction in the number of leases being renewed that had low pandemic-era rents or lease incentives in place. Overall leasing activity remained steady and new-lease rent growth remained robust;

• In Tricon's Canadian residential development portfolio, The Taylor's occupancy continued to improve, with 64% of the building leased at an average monthly rent of C$4.55 per square foot. Construction at The Ivy and Maple House (West Don Lands - Block 8) continued to progress, with first occupancy anticipated in Q3 2023. Meanwhile, the Symington project commenced construction during the quarter. Although the portfolio experienced pressures on construction timelines and costs associated with the current inflationary environment, the Company leveraged its strong trade relationships to minimize construction delays and reduce the impact of cost increases; and

• Tricon's investments in U.S. residential developments generated $8.7 million of distributions to the Company in Q1 2023.

Change in Net Assets

Tricon's net assets were $3.8 billion at March 31, 2023, increasing by $5 million when compared to $3.8 billion as at December 31, 2022. Tricon's book value (net assets) per common share outstanding increased by a nominal 1% to $13.96 (C$18.89) as at March 31, 2023 compared to $13.89 (C$18.81) as at December 31, 2022.

Balance Sheet and Liquidity

Tricon's liquidity consists of a $500 million corporate credit facility with approximately $462 million of undrawn capacity as at March 31, 2023. The Company also had approximately $142 million of unrestricted cash on hand, resulting in total liquidity of $604 million.

As at March 31, 2023, Tricon’s pro-rata net debt (excluding exchangeable instruments) was $2.7 billion, reflecting a pro-rata net debt to assets ratio of 35.5%. For the three months ended March 31, 2023, Tricon's pro-rata net debt to Adjusted EBITDAre ratio was 8.2x.²

Non-IFRS Measures

The Company has included herein certain non-IFRS financial measures and non-IFRS ratios, including, but not limited to: "proportionate" metrics, net operating income ("NOI"), NOI margin, funds from operations ("FFO"), core funds from operations ("Core FFO"), adjusted funds from operations ("AFFO"), Core FFO per share, AFFO per share, Adjusted EBITDAre as well as certain key indicators of the performance of our businesses which are supplementary financial measures. These measures are commonly used by entities in the real estate industry as useful metrics for measuring performance. We utilize these measures in managing our business, including performance measurement and capital allocation. In addition, certain of these measures are used in measuring compliance with our debt covenants. We believe that providing these performance measures on a supplemental basis is helpful to investors and shareholders in assessing the overall performance of the Company’s business. However, these measures are not recognized under and do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS as issued by the IASB, and are not necessarily comparable to similar measures presented by other publicly traded entities. These measures should be considered as supplemental in nature and not as a substitute for related financial information prepared in accordance with IFRS. Because non-IFRS financial measures, non-IFRS ratios and supplementary financial measures do not have standardized meanings prescribed under IFRS, securities regulations require that such measures be clearly defined, identified, and reconciled to their nearest IFRS measure. The calculation and reconciliation of the non-IFRS financial measures and the requisite disclosure for non-IFRS ratios used herein are provided in Appendix A below. The definitions of the Company’s Non-IFRS measures are provided in the "Glossary and Defined Terms" section as well as Section 6 of Tricon's MD&A.

The non-IFRS financial measures, non-IFRS ratios and supplementary financial measures presented herein should not be construed as alternatives to net income (loss) or cash flow from the Company’s activities, determined in accordance with IFRS, as indicators of Tricon’s financial performance. Tricon’s method of calculating these measures may differ from other issuers’ methods and, accordingly, these measures may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other publicly-traded entities.

Glossary and Defined Terms

The non-IFRS financial measures, non-IFRS ratios, and KPI supplementary financial measures discussed throughout this press release for each of the Company’s business segments are calculated based on Tricon's proportionate share of each portfolio or business and are defined and discussed below and in Section 6 of the MD&A, which definitions and discussion are incorporated herein by reference. These measures are commonly used by entities in the real estate industry as useful metrics for measuring performance; however, they do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and are not necessarily comparable to similar measures presented by other publicly-traded entities. These measures should be considered as supplemental in nature and not as a substitute for the related financial information prepared in accordance with IFRS. See Appendix A for a reconciliation to IFRS financial measures where applicable.

Adjusted EBITDAre is a metric that management believes to be helpful in evaluating the Company’s operating performance across and within the real estate industry. Further, management considers it to be a more accurate reflection of the Company’s leverage ratio, especially as it adjusts for and negates non-recurring and non-cash items. The Company’s definition of EBITDAre reflects all adjustments that are specified by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”). In addition to the adjustments prescribed by NAREIT, Tricon excludes fair value gains that arise as a result of reporting under IFRS.

EBITDAre represents net income from continuing operations, excluding the impact of interest expense, income tax expense, amortization and depreciation expense, fair value changes on rental properties, fair value changes on derivative financial instruments and adjustments to reflect the entity’s share of EBITDAre of unconsolidated entities. Adjusted EBITDAre is a normalized figure and is defined as EBITDAre before stock-based compensation, unrealized and realized foreign exchange gains and losses, transaction costs and other non-recurring items, and reflects only Tricon’s share of results from consolidated entities (by removing non-controlling interests’ and limited partners’ share of reconciling items).

The Company also discloses its Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDAre ratio to assist investors in accounting for the Company’s unconsolidated joint ventures and equity-accounted investments, in both debt and Adjusted EBITDAre, by calculating pro-rata leverage on a look-through basis (excluding debt directly related to the Canadian development portfolio as well as warehouse and subscription facilities related to acquisitions of vacant single-family homes, which do not fully contribute to Adjusted EBITDAre).

Cost to maintain is defined as the annualized repairs and maintenance expense, turnover expense net of applicable resident recoveries and recurring capital expenditures per home in service. The metric provides insight into the costs needed to maintain a property's current condition and is indicative of a portfolio's operational efficiency.

Pro-rata net assets represents the Company's proportionate share of total consolidated assets as well as assets of non-consolidated entities on a look-through basis (which are shown as equity-accounted investments on its proportionate balance sheet), less its cash and restricted cash.

Pro-rata net debt represents the Company's total current and long-term debt per its consolidated financial statements, less its cash and restricted cash (excluding debt directly related to the Canadian development portfolio as well as warehouse and subscription facilities related to acquisitions of vacant single-family homes, which do not fully contribute to Adjusted EBITDAre).
