The consolidated operations of Real include the wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Real Brokerage Inc., including those wholly-owned subsidiaries involved in the brokerage, title and mortgage business operations. The Company also has investments in Joint Ventures which are accounted for using the equity method.
On May 17, 2021, the TSX Venture Exchange (the “TSXV”) accepted the Company’s Notice of Intention to implement a normal course issuer bid (“NCIB”). On May 19, 2022, the Company announced that it renewed its NCIB to be transacted through the facilities of the NASDAQ Capital Market (“NASDAQ”) and other stock exchanges and/or alternative trading systems in the United States and/or Canada. Pursuant to the NCIB, Real may purchase up to 8.9 common shares of the Company (“Common Shares”), representing approximately 5% of the total 178.3 million Common Shares issued and outstanding as of May 19, 2022. Purchases will be made at prevailing market prices and will terminate no later than May 20, 2023.
The NCIB is being conducted to acquire Common Shares for the purposes of satisfying restricted share unit (each, an “RSU”) obligations. The Company appointed CWB Trust Services (the “Trustee”) as the trustee for the purposes of arranging the acquisition of Common Shares and to hold the Common Shares in trust for the purposes of satisfying RSU payments as well as deal with other administration matters. Through the Trustee, RBC Capital Markets was engaged to undertake purchases under the NCIB.
During the 3-month period ended March 31, 2023, the Company repurchased 462 thousand Common Shares in the amount of $601 thousand.
On July 26, 2022, the Company’s Common Shares commenced trading on the Toronto Stock Exchange (the “TSX”) under the symbol “REAX”. Concurrent to the graduation to the TSX, the Common Shares were voluntarily delisted from the TSXV. Trading of the Common Shares continues on the NASDAQ under the same symbol, “REAX”.
2. | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies |

UNAUDITED
The significant judgments, estimates and assumptions in the preparation of the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements are consistent with those followed in the preparation of the Company’s annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022.
On January 20, 2022, the Company completed the acquisition of 100% of the issued and outstanding equity interests of Expetitle, Inc. (“Expetitle”) pursuant to a stock purchase agreement (the “Expetitle Transaction”). Expetitle had developed technology that simplifies the paper-intensive and time-intensive title and eEscrow process, reducing errors and saving time. Agents and homebuyers can navigate the entire closing experience in a few clicks using Expetitle’s mobile app. As part of the Expetitle Transaction, the Company also acquired 51% ownership of five subsidiaries of Expetitle Inc. The noncontrolling ownership interest in these five subsidiaries of Expetitle recognized at the acquisition date was measured by reference to the fair value of the non-controlling interest and amounted to $21 thousand. The aggregate purchase price for 100% of the issued and outstanding equity interests of Expetitle was comprised of cash consideration of $7.4 million payable at the closing of the Expetitle Transaction and contingent consideration of $800 thousand in cash subject to escrow, that would be released after twelve (12) months upon the satisfaction or waiver of the following terms and conditions: (i) the key employees remain at their current position with the Company for at least twelve (12) months after the closing of the Expetitle Transaction and (ii) Expetitle will become licenced to operate in at least fifteen states, including the then current states of operation, Florida, Georgia, and Texas. The contingent terms were met and the $800,000 that was in escrow was released on January 23, 2023.
As part of the Expetitle Transaction, Real granted an aggregate of 700 thousand incentive stock options (“Options”) and an aggregate of 1.1 million RSUs to shareholders and members of the Expetitle team. The fair value of those Options was $4.8 million from which $4.3 million was determined to be part of the consideration and $451 thousand that was recorded immediately to the statement of loss and comprehensive loss as post transaction employee compensation which vests immediately. The Options are exercisable for a period of 3 years at $3.60 per Common Share. In addition, and as part of the transaction, the Company provided cash grants to the Expetitle employees in the amount of $168 thousand.
We have completed the valuation of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities and have assigned $3.4 million as the fair value of the Company’s developed technology and $8.4 million as the residual goodwill. Goodwill represents expected synergies, future income and growth potential, and other intangibles that do not qualify for separate recognition. None of the goodwill arising from this acquisition is expected to be deductible for tax purposes.

On November 3, 2022, the Company acquired, through a wholly owned subsidiary, all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Redline Real Estate Group (BC) Inc. (“Redline BC”) pursuant to a share purchase agreement between the Company, Redline BC and Redline Realty Investments Inc. (“Redline Realty”). The acquisition, which includes Redline’s real estate license to operate in British Columbia, fueled the Company’s expansion into Canada’s third largest province. The transaction was settled in nominal cash consideration for an aggregate purchase price of one Canadian dollar. The Company has determined that the Redline Transaction meets the definition of business combinations within the scope of IFRS 3, Business Combination and has 12 months from the date of purchase to determine the purchase price allocation among the assets purchased and any amounts attributable to goodwill.

On December 9, 2022, pursuant to the terms of a share purchase agreement dated September 23, 2022 between the Company, LemonBrew Lending Corp. (“LemonBrew Lending”) and LemonBrew Technologies Corp. (“LemonBrew Technologies”), the Company acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding equity interests of LemonBrew Lending from the seller for an aggregate purchase price of $1.25 million (the “LemonBrew Transaction”). The purchase price was satisfied by (i) cash in the amount of $800 thousand and (ii) the issuance of 351,837 Common Shares (the “Consideration Shares”) at a deemed issued price of $1.279 per share. The issued price of the Consideration Shares is equal to the product of $450,000 divided by the 5-day volume weighted average trading price of the Common Shares on the NASDAQ immediately prior to the closing of the LemonBrew Transaction.

In connection with the closing of the LemonBrew Transaction, the Company entered into agreements with management and key employees of LemonBrew Lending (the “LemonBrew Key Employee Agreements”). The LemonBrew Key Employment Agreements provide for performance-based milestone payments of $2.5 million payable over 36 months following closing of the LemonBrew Transaction, of which $2 million with be payable in cash and $500 thousand will be payable in restricted share units of the Company. The performance-based milestones are:
| ● | LemonBrew achieving at least $500 thousand in EBITDA for the first 12-month period following closing, $1 million in EBITDA for the second 12-month period following closing, and $2 million in EBITDA for the third 12-month period following closing |
| | |
| ● | Certain employees remaining in their roles to be established with Real during the transaction |
These payments are considered separate from the aggregate purchase price. Management believes that there is no likelihood of achieving the performance-based milestones and has not recognized any expenses related to the performance-based milestone payment.
The Company has determined that the LemonBrew Transaction meets the definition of business combinations within the scope of IFRS 3, Business Combination and has 12 months from the date of purchase to determine the purchase price allocation among the assets purchased and any amounts attributable to goodwill.
The following table summarizes the recognized amounts of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, total consideration, and cash flow related to the LemonBrew Transaction (in thousands).

Stock option plan (equity-settled)
On January 20, 2016, the Company established (the “Stock Option Plan”) that entitles key management personnel and employees to purchase shares in the Company. Under the Stock Option Plan, holders of vested Options are entitled to purchase Common Shares for the exercise price as determined at the grant date.
On February 26, 2022, the Company established an omnibus incentive plan providing for up to 20% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares as of the date thereof (being 35.6 million Common Shares, less RSUs and Options outstanding under other equity inventive plans) to be issued as RSUs or Options to directors, officers, employees, and consultants of the Company (the “Omnibus Incentive Plan”). The Omnibus Incentive was approved by shareholders of the Company on June 13, 2022.

In connection with the graduation to the TSX, the Company amended its Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “A&R Plan”) on July 13, 2022. Pursuant to the A&R Plan, the maximum number of Common Shares issuable pursuant to outstanding Options at anytime shall be limited to 15% of the aggregate number of issued and outstanding Common Shares as of the applicable award date less the number of Common Shares issuable pursuant to Options under the A&R Plan or any other security based compensation arrangement of the Company. In addition, the Company is authorized to grant up to 70,000,000 RSUs pursuant to the A&R Plan. The RSU limit is separate and distinct from the maximum number of Common Shares reserved for issuance pursuant to Options under the A&R Plan.

The fair value of the Options has been measured using the Black-Scholes formula which was also used to determine the Company’s share value. Service and non-market performance conditions attached to the arrangements were not considered in measuring fair value. The inputs used in the measurement of the fair value at the grant and measurement date were as follows:
| | March 31, 2023 | | | December 31, 2022 | |
Share price | | $ | 1.21 | | | $ | 1.05 | |
Exercise price | | $ | 1.25 | | | | $1.35 to $2.45 | |
Expected volatility (weighted-average) | | | 108.0 | % | | | 108.0 | % |
Expected life (weighted-average) | | | 10 years | | | | 10 years | |
Expected dividends | | | - | % | | | - | % |
Risk-free interest rate (based on US government bonds) | | | 3.65 | % | | | 1.95 – 2.89% | |
Expected volatility has been based on an evaluation of historical volatility of the company’s share price.

D. | Restricted share unit plan |
Restricted share unit plan
Under the Company’s agent performance grant program, the Company issues RSUs to agents based on an agent meeting certain performance metrics, and successfully attracting other performing agents to the Company. Each RSU entitles the holder to one Common Share or cash payment in lieu of a Common Share. The RSUs have a three-year vesting term and are subject to forfeiture in certain circumstances. The Company recognizes expense from the issuance of these RSUs during the applicable vesting period based upon the best available estimate of the number RSUs expected to vest with a corresponding increase in stock-based compensation reserve. The expense recognized from the issuance of RSU awards for the quarter ended March 31, 2023 was $1.5 million, and was classified as marketing expense.
Under the Company’s agent stock purchase program, agents purchase RSUs, which vest after a year, using a percentage of the agent’s commission that is withheld by the Company. Each RSU entitles the holder to one Common Share or cash payment in lieu of a Common Share. The RSUs are expensed in the period in which they are issued with a corresponding increase in equity. Each agent pays the Company 15% of commissions until the commission paid to the Company totals that agent’s cap (the “Cap”). As an incentive to participate in the program, the Company issues additional RSUs (“Bonus RSUs”) with a value of (i) 15% of the commission withheld (the percentage was 30% prior to June 16, 2022) if an agent has not met the Cap and (ii) 30% of the commission withheld (the percentage was 50% prior to June 16, 2022) if an agent has met the Cap. The Bonus RSUs have a one-year vesting term and are subject to forfeiture in certain circumstances. The RSUs purchased under the program and the Bonus RSUs are expensed when they are issued with a corresponding increase in stock-based compensation reserve.
Stock compensation awards granted to full time employees (“FTEs”) are classified as a General and Administrative, R&D, or Marketing expense based on the appropriate department within the interim Condensed Consolidated Statements of Loss and Other Comprehensive Loss.

On May 19, 2022, the Company announced that it renewed the NCIB. Pursuant to the renewed NCIB, Real may purchase up to 8.9 million Common Shares, representing approximately 5% of the total 178.3 million Common Shares issued and outstanding as of May 19, 2022. The purpose of the purchase of Common Shares under the NCIB is to enable the Company to acquire shares to satisfy its RSU grants for shares. The NCIB shall terminate on the earlier of May 20, 2023 and the date on which the maximum number of Common Shares purchasable under the NCIB is acquired by the Company. Between May 20, 2021 and March 31, 2023, there were 9.1 million Common Shares purchased in the amount of $21.3 million .
The Company appointed the Trustee for the purposes of arranging for the acquisition of the Common Shares and to hold the Common Shares in trust for the purposes of satisfying restricted share unit payments as well as deal with other administration matters. Through the Trustee, RBC Capital Markets was engaged to undertake purchases under the NCIB for the purposes of the RSU Plan, the Omnibus Incentive Plan, and the A&R Plan.
10. | CasH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS |
In the statement of financial position, cash and bank balances comprise cash (i.e. cash on hand and demand deposits) and cash equivalents. Cash equivalents are short-term (generally with original maturity of three months or less), highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. Cash equivalents are held for the purpose of meeting short-term cash commitments rather than for investment or other purposes.
Bank balances for which use by the Company is subject to third party contractual restrictions are included as part of cash unless the restrictions result in a bank balance no longer meeting the definition of cash. Restricted cash consists of cash held in escrow by the Company’s brokers and agents on behalf of real estate buyers. The Company recognizes a corresponding customer deposit liability until the funds are released. Once the cash is transferred from escrow, the Company reduces the respective customers’ deposit liability.

Real defines capital as its equity. It is comprised of Common Shares, contributed capital, retained deficit and accumulated other comprehensive loss. The Company’s capital management framework is designed to maintain a level of capital that funds the operations and business strategies and builds long-term shareholder value.
The Company’s objective is to manage its capital structure in such a way as to diversify its funding sources, while minimizing its funding costs and risks. The Company sets the amount of capital in proportion to the risk and adjusts considering changes in economic conditions and the characteristic risk of underlying assets. To maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Company may repurchase shares, return capital to shareholders, issue new shares or sell assets to reduce debt.
Real’s objective is met by retaining adequate liquidity to provide the possibility that cash flows from its assets will not be sufficient to meet operational, investing and financing requirements. There have been no changes to the Company’s capital management policies during the periods ended March 31, 2023, and December 31, 2022.

A. | Transfers between levels |
During the periods ended March 31, 2023, and December 31, 2022, there have been no transfers between Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3.
B. | Financial risk management |
The Company has exposure to the following risks arising from financial instruments:
‒ | liquidity risk (see (iii)); |
‒ | market risk (see (iv)); and |
‒ | investment risk (see (v)). |
i. | Risk management framework |
The Company’s activity exposes it to a variety of financial risks, including credit risk, liquidity risk, market risk and investment risk. These financial risks are managed by the Company under policies approved by the Board of Directors. The principal financial risks are actively managed by the Company’s finance department, within the policies and guidelines.
On an ongoing basis, the finance department actively monitors the market conditions, with a view of minimizing exposure of the Company to changing market factors, while at the same time limiting the funding costs of the Company.
The Company’s Audit Committee oversees how management monitors compliance with the Company’s risk management policies and procedures and reviews the adequacy of the risk management framework in relation to the risks faced by the Company.
Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations and arises principally from the Company’s receivables from customers. The receivables are processed through an intermediary trustee, as part of the structure of every deal, which ensures collection on the close of a successful transaction. In order to mitigate the residual risk, the Company contracts exclusively with reputable and credit-worthy partners.
The carrying amount of financial assets and contract assets represents the maximum credit exposure.
Trade receivables
The Company’s exposure to credit risk is influenced mainly by the individual characteristics of each customer. However, management also considers other factors may influence the credit risk of the customer base, including the default risk associated with the industry and the country in which the customers operate.
The Company does not require collateral in respect to trade and other receivables. The Company does not have trade receivable and contract assets for which no loss allowance is recognized because of collateral.

Loss rates are calculated using a ‘roll rate’ method based on the probability of a receivable progressing through successive stages of delinquency to write-off. Roll rates are calculated separately for exposures in different CGUs based on the following common credit risk characteristics – geographic region, credit information about the customer and the type of home purchased.
Loss rates are based on actual credit loss experience. These rates are multiplied by scalar factors to reflect differences between economic conditions during the period over which the historical data has been collected, compared to current conditions of the Company’s view of economic conditions over the expected lives of the receivables.
As of March 31, 2023, the exposure to credit risk for trade receivables and contract asset (in thousands) by geographic region was as follows:
| | March 31, 2023 | | | December 31, 2022 | |
US | | | 1,245 | | | | 1,105 | |
Other Regions | | | 154 | | | | 442 | |
Trade Receivables | | | 1,399 | | | | 1,547 | |
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will encounter difficulty in meeting the obligations associated with its financial liabilities that are settled by delivering cash or another financial asset. The Company’s approach to maintaining liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that it will have sufficient cash and cash equivalents and other liquid assets to meet its liabilities when they are due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the Company’s reputation.
Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices – e.g. foreign exchange rates, interest rates and equity prices – will affect the Company’s income or the value of its holdings of financial instruments. The objective of market risk management is to manage and control market risk exposures within acceptable parameters, while optimizing the return.
Currency risk
The Company is exposed to transactional foreign currency risk to the extent there is a mismatch between currencies in which purchases and receivables are denominated and the respective functional currencies of the Company. The currencies in which transactions are primarily denominated are US dollars, Israeli shekel and Canadian dollar.
Sensitivity analysis
A reasonably possible strengthening (weakening) of the U.S. dollar (USD), Israeli shekel (ILS), or Canadian Dollar (CAD) against all other currencies in which the Company operates as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 would have affected the measurement of financial instruments denominated in a foreign currency and affected equity and profit or loss by the amounts shown below. This analysis assumes that all other variables, in particular interest rates, remain constant and ignores any impact of forecast sales and purchases. The following table is presented in thousands:
| | Average Rate | | | Period-end Spot Rate | |
| | Strengthening | | | Weakening | | | Strengthening | | | Weakening | |
Balance at, March 31, 2023 | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
CAD (-5% movement) | | | 103 | | | | (103 | ) | | | 140 | | | | (140 | ) |
ILS (-5% movement) | | | 1 | | | | (1 | ) | | | 2 | | | | (2 | ) |
Balance at, December 31, 2022 | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
CAD (-5% movement) | | | 355 | | | | (355 | ) | | | 456 | | | | (456 | ) |

Foreign Currency Risk Management
The Company undertakes transactions denominated in foreign currencies; consequently, exposures to exchange rate fluctuations arise. Exchange rate exposures are managed within approved policy parameters utilizing forward foreign exchange contracts.
The carrying amounts of the Company’s foreign currency denominated monetary assets and monetary liabilities (in thousands) at the reporting date are as follows:
| | Liabilities | | | Assets | |
| | March 31, 2023 | | | December 31,2022 | | | March 31, 2023 | | | December 31, 2022 | |

ILS | | | (24 | ) | | | (82 | ) | | | 7,660 | | | | 7,724 | |
Total Exposure | | | (13,908 | ) | | | (7,140 | ) | | | 16,930 | | | | 11,198 | |
The Company invested funds from the Insight Partners financing transaction into a managed investment portfolio, exposing it to risk of losses based on market fluctuations. Securities are purchased on behalf of the Company and are actively managed through multiple investment accounts. Funds apportioned for investment are allocated accordingly to the investment guidelines set forth by Management. Investments are made in U.S. currency.
The Company follows a conservative investment approach with limited risk for investment activities and has allocated the funds in Level 1 assets to reduce market risk exposure.
Information about the Company’s investment activity is included in Note 11.
19. | COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES |
The Company may have various other contractual obligations in the normal course of operations. The Company is not materially contingently liable with respect to litigation, claims and environmental matters, including those that could result in material mandatory damages or other relief. Any expected settlement of claims in excess of amounts recorded will be charged to profit or loss as and when such determination is made.
20. | RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS |
Balances and transactions between the company and its subsidiaries, which are related parties, have been eliminated on consolidation and are not disclosed in this note. The Company’s key management personnel are comprised of its Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, the Chief Technology Officer, and Chief Marketing Officer, and other members of the executive team.
