Second Quarter 2018 Review:
On a consolidated basis, second quarter revenues increased 5.0% to $134.2 million and Adjusted EBITDA decreased
by 1.0% to $23.8 million. Exchange rate movements against the Canadian dollar impacted consolidated revenues by (1.5%) and Adjusted
EBITDA by (3.0%).
Consolidated profit (loss) during the second quarter, in accordance with IFRS, was $0.3 million or $0.01 per
share on a basic and diluted basis, compared to $104.9 million or $2.75 per share, basic, and $2.72 per share, diluted, during the
same period in 2017, due to an accounting gain on the partial deemed disposition and re-measurement of retained interest in the
Company’s investment in Real Matters Inc. during the second quarter of 2017.
Adjusted EPS was $0.40 in the second quarter, unchanged when compared to the second quarter of 2017.
Altus Analytics revenues increased by 1.0% to $47.0 million. Revenue growth would have been
3.9% if the impact from foreign exchange movements was excluded. ARGUS product software revenues were flat for the quarter as
compared to the second quarter of 2017, during which we saw historical high sales of AE, significantly impacted by conversions due
to the end of DCF support. Due diligence assignments were lower in the quarter impacting revenues. Recurring revenues were $32.6
million, up 6.1% from the same period in 2017. Movements in the exchange rate against the Canadian dollar impacted revenues by
(2.9%).
Adjusted EBITDA was $12.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018, down 16.9% or $2.6 million from
$15.5 million in the same period in 2017. Changes in foreign exchange impacted Adjusted EBITDA by (3.9%). Adjusted EBITDA decreased
because of higher expenses related to the significant incremental investments for ARGUS product development activities.
The CRE Consulting revenues increased 10.4% to $77.1 million. Property Tax revenues increased
by 13.4%, primarily due to strong organic and acquisitive growth from the U.K. Property Tax practice. In Ontario, the Company has a
strong pipeline of work, however, new scheduling processes put in place by the assessment authorities is causing deferral of
appeals settlements. Exchange rate fluctuations impacted Property Tax revenues by (0.8%). Valuation and Cost Advisory revenues
increased by 5.1% on stronger performance from the global Cost practice, which experienced growth in both Canada and Australia.
Changes in exchange rates impacted CRE Consulting revenues by (0.7%). Adjusted EBITDA was $19.1 million for the quarter ended June
30, 2018, up 4.0% from the same period in 2017, largely driven by an increase in earnings from the Valuation and Cost Advisory
business. Changes in exchange rates impacted CRE Consulting Adjusted EBITDA by (0.6%).
Geomatics’ revenues were lower by 12.0% at $10.4 million, while Adjusted EBITDA increased 18.3%
to $0.9 million. Earnings improved on headcount reductions.
Corporate costs (recovery) were $9.1 million in the second quarter, compared to $10.6 million
in the same period in 2017. During the quarter, corporate costs decreased on lower technology related spend and lower variable
compensation.
At the end of the second quarter, Altus Group’s balance sheet remained strong, giving the Company the financial
flexibility to pursue its growth strategy. The Company’s bank debt was $189.2 million, representing a funded debt to EBITDA
leverage ratio of 2.28 times, compared to 1.84 times at December 31, 2017. Also, the Company’s cash and cash equivalents stood at
$48.0 million at the end of the second quarter.

Non-IFRS Measures
Altus Group uses certain non-IFRS measures as indicators of financial performance. Readers are cautioned
that they are not defined performance measures, and do not have any standardized meaning, under IFRS and may differ from similar
computations as reported by other similar entities and, accordingly, may not be comparable to financial measures as reported by
those entities. We believe that these measures are useful supplemental measures that may assist investors in assessing an
investment in our shares and provide more insight into our performance.
Adjusted Earnings before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization, (“Adjusted EBITDA”),

profit (loss) of associates, unrealized foreign exchange gains (losses), gains (losses) on disposal of property, plant and
equipment, gains (losses) on investments, impairment charges, non-cash Executive Compensation Plan costs, gains (losses) on hedging
transactions, gains (losses) on equity derivatives net of mark-to-market adjustments on related restricted share units (“RSUs”) and
deferred share units (“DSUs”) being hedged and other costs or income of a non-operating and/or non-recurring nature. Adjusted
EBITDA margin is Adjusted EBITDA divided by revenues.
Adjusted Earnings (Loss) per Share, (“Adjusted EPS”), represents basic earnings (loss) per share
adjusted for the effects of amortization of intangibles acquired as part of business acquisitions, non-cash finance costs
(income) related to the revaluation of amounts payable to U.K. unitholders, net of changes in fair value of related equity
derivatives, acquisition and related transition costs (income), restructuring costs, share of profit (loss) of associates,

investments, interest accretion on contingent consideration payables, impairment charges, non-cash Executive Compensation Plan
