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 month period ended March 31, 2012. 


For the three month period ended March 31, 2012 the Company reported earnings
before income taxes of $536,716 on revenue of $820,219 compared to earnings
before income taxes of $3,764,819 on revenue of $900,106 for the corresponding
period in 2011. The majority of this decrease is attributable to a fair value
gain on the Company's real estate of $3,484,794 in 2011 in accordance with the
transition to IFRS. Revenue was lower for the period ended March 31, 2012 due to
a reduction in common area and maintenance charges recovered due to an
overpayment by certain tenants in 2011. 


Rental expenses for the three month period ended March 31, 2012 decreased to
$262,210 compared to $307,193 for the corresponding period in 2011. The slight
decrease is a result of a general repairs and maintenance expenditures being
lower at all properties but primarily because of a one-time refund of an
overcharged utility bill. 


Financing costs decreased slightly during the three month period ended March 31,
2012 to $238,286 from $262,065 for the corresponding period ended in 2011.
Administrative costs during the period ended March 31, 2012 decreased to $56,389
from $63,010 for the corresponding period in 2011. 


As of March 31, 2012, total assets were $37,552,644 compared to $37,195,521 as
of March 31, 2011. The increase of $357,123 in total assets as at March 31, 2012
is primarily due to the increase in marketable securities.
