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 three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2013
(the "Consolidated Financial Statements"). 


For the three month period ended September 30, 2013, the Company reported
earnings before income taxes of $636,122 on Revenues of $686,670 compared to a
loss on earnings before income taxes of $319,100 on operating revenues of
$864,745 for the corresponding period in 2012. Rental Revenue, Rental Expenses
and Administrative Costs for the three months ended September 30, 2013, include
adjustments of various estimates in accounts related to a 10% interest in a
portfolio of 10 residential projects consisting of 1,870 residential suites
located in Quebec City and Montreal (the "Quebec Properties") for the three
months ended June 30, 2013. 


For the three month period ended September 30, 2013, the Company reported a
Realized gain on the sale of marketable securities of $422,688 compared to a
gain of $58,496 for the corresponding period in 2012. Management believes that
the extent of the gain in the three month period ended September 30, 2013 is a
non-recurring event.


Net income decreased to $966,917 during the nine month period ended September
30, 2013 from $1,497,618 during the corresponding period in 2012. This decrease
is attributable to a fair value gain of $476,148 in 2012 from the sale of the
Company's 10% undivided interest in a 556 unit residential complex at 798 - 800
Richmond Street West, Toronto, Ontario (the "Richmond Property") in the 3rd
quarter of 2012.


Financing costs decreased during the three month period ended September 30, 2013
to $197,525 from $253,740 for the corresponding period ended September 30, 2012.
This decrease is due to adjustments of various estimates in accounts related to
the acquisition and operations of the Quebec Properties for the three months
ended June 30, 2013.

financial statements of the Company:

FFO increased during the nine month period ended September 30, 2013 to $796,336

During the three month period ended September 30, 2013, FFO increased to $72,578

FFO, or any other non-IFRS 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 IFRS.


FFO is a widely accepted supplemental measure of financial performance for real
estate entities; however, it does not represent amounts available for capital
programs, debt service obligations, commitments or uncertainties. FFO should not
be interpreted as an indicator of cash generated from operating activities and
is not indicative of cash available to fund operating expenditures, or for the
payment of cash distributions. FFO is simply one measure of operating
performance.


As of September 30, 2013, total assets were $43,071,143 compared to $35,880,153
as of December 31, 2012 and primarily a result of the acquisition of the Quebec

to $20,904,293 and again, due primarily to the acquisition of the Quebec
Properties.

date, reference should be made to: (i) the Company's consolidated financial
statements as at the period ended September 30, 2013 and the notes thereto; and
