(TSXV: TRBE) (OTCQB US: TRPTF))  ("Tribe" or the "Company") a leading provider of technology-enabled property management solutions, today announced its financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2021. All amounts are stated in Canadian dollars on an as reported basis under IFRS (international financial reporting standards) unless otherwise indicated.

"This was a transformational year for Tribe, and we capped it off with consistently strong results in Q4, achieving record annual revenue and gross margin for the full year," said Joseph Nakhla, Chief Executive Officer of Tribe. "We began the year with the acquisition of a large national property management company, became a public company, and continued our acquisition strategy completing three transactions in 2021. We formally launched our digital partnership program in the third quarter and continue to add partners to grow the offerings for residents of our Tribe communities."

"With a record-setting 2021 now in the rear-view mirror, we have continued to execute on our growth strategy. On January 14 of this year, we closed on a $21 million private placement to fund our future growth initiatives, welcoming to our capital structure one of Canada's leading technology investors, Round 13 Capital, and also welcoming to our Board at our recent annual and special meeting, Mr. Sanjiv Samant."

• Annual revenue was $15.8 million, an increase of 247% compared to $4.6 million for the comparable period in the previous year ¹;
• We completed our national amalgamation and integration of Gateway Property Management;
• Gross profit² in 2021 was $7.5 million (47.4%). The increase in gross profit² was a result of the addition of service contracts associated with acquisitions and organic growth, and the increase in gross profit percentage² was driven by economies of scale and digitization of a larger national footprint;
• We assembled an M&A Opportunities team to gather market intelligence and identify potential acquisition opportunities;
• We built an M&A Integration Team to expedite the full integration and digitization of acquired businesses;
• We launched our enterprise software nationally as "Tribe Home";
• We announced and closed the acquisition of assets in three separate transactions;
• We launched our revenue-generating strategic Digital Partnership Program and announced numerous signed partnership agreements.

Tribe seeks to acquire highly accretive targets in the fragmented North American property management industry and transform these businesses through streamlining and digitization of operations. Tribe's platform decreases customer acquisition costs, increases retention, and allows for the addition of value-added products and services through the platform.

¹ In March of 2021, the Company announced a change in its financial year-end from April 30 to December 31.  As a result of the change in year-end, the Company filed audited consolidated financial statements for the eight-month period ended December 31, 2020 and audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021. The information contained in this press release for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2020 are considered estimates and are unaudited due to the change in year.

² Non-IFRS measure that does not have a standardized meaning and may not be comparable to a similar measure disclosed by other issuers. Adjusted EBITDA is also not a measure recognized in accordance with IFRS and does not have a prescribed or standardized meaning by IFRS. The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as net income or loss excluding depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, interest expense, income tax expense, impairment charges and other expenses. It should be noted that Adjusted EBITDA is not defined under IFRS and may not be comparable to similar measures used by other entities. The Company believes Adjusted EBITDA is a useful measure as it provides important and relevant information to management about the operating and financial performance of the Company. Adjusted EBITDA also enables management to assess its ability to generate operating cash flow to fund future working capital needs, and to support future growth. Excluding these items does not imply that they are non-recurring or not useful to investors. Investors should be cautioned that Adjusted EBITDA attributable to shareholders should not be construed as an alternative to net income (loss) or cash flows as determined under IFRS.

³ Non-IFRS measure that does not have a standard meaning and may not be comparable to a similar measure disclosed by other issuers. Gross profit and gross profit percentage do not have a standardized meaning under IFRS, and therefore may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. The Company defines gross profit as revenue less cost of software and services and software licensing fees, and gross profit percentage as gross profit calculated as a percentage of revenue. Gross profit and gross profit percentage should not be construed as an alternative for revenue or net loss in accordance with IFRS. The Company believes that gross profit and gross profit percentage are meaningful metrics in assessing the Company's financial performance and operational efficiency.
