Tribe also announced it had begun the expansion of DMS's service offerings to Tribe's current customer base of Strata and Condo Corporations, Investor-Owners and Property Developers, expanding its comprehensive service offerings across Canada.
Outlook:
Tribe continues to outperform the general real estate conditions due to the Company's aggressive M&A strategy, strong business development pipeline, healthy base of recurring revenue and its diversified revenue streams. In addition, Tribe has augmented its organic growth by selling more services to existing customers, leading to a marked increase in the Company's revenue per home metric.
Management remains optimistic that 2024 will be a strong year for the Company, with improved revenue growth, profitability and expanding margins. The Company is pleased to reiterate its key goals for 2024:
- Increase monthly recurring revenue. Organic growth will be fueled by landing new property management agreements, onboarding more communities onto the Tribe platform, winning new software licensing agreements and increasing digital services revenue.
- Make additional acquisitions. The company expects to continue executing on its aggressive M&A strategy. Tribe closed the recent acquisition of DMSI in June 2024 and continues to have several additional acquisition targets in its M&A pipeline.
- Improve profitability. The Company expects to continue to drive efficiencies in the business resulting in improved gross margins and enhancing Tribe's EBITDA profile. The acquisition of DMSI also further accelerates the Company's goal of achieving profitability.
- Continue to innovate. Tribe is committed to investing in its proprietary software platform and adding functionality to its suite of products in order to maintain its industry leadership position.
Tribe has a robust pipeline of new opportunities bolstered by the onboarding of existing buildings that are looking for new management, as well as brand new buildings nearing completion.
The persistent housing shortage across North America is a significant long-term trend that is expected to drive increased construction activity and further enhance demand for Tribe's services for the foreseeable future. The cornerstone of Tribe's sustained success is the exceptional quality of its property management technology solutions and superior services, coupled with the Company's expansive national footprint.

Adjusted EBITDA is a non-IFRS measure that does not have a standardized meaning and may not be comparable to a similar measure disclosed by other issuers. 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. 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 is provided as a proxy for the cash earnings (loss) from the operations of the business as operating income (loss) for the Company includes non-cash amortization and depreciation expense and stock-based compensation. 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.
