In Q3 2024, DIV generated $16.1 million of revenue compared to $13.6 million in Q3 2023. After taking into account the DIV Royalty Entitlement1 (defined below) related to DIV's royalty arrangements with Nurse Next Door, DIV's adjusted revenue was $17.4 million in Q3 2024, compared to $14.9 million in Q3 2023. Adjusted revenue increased primarily due to incremental revenue received through the acquisition of the BarBurrito rights on October 4, 2023, positive SSSG1 (defined below) at Mr. Lube + Tires and Oxford, the annual contractual royalty increases at Stratus, Nurse Next Door and Sutton, partially offset by negative SSSG from Mr. Mikes and lower royalty income from AIR MILES®, all as discussed in further detail below.
1. Adjusted revenue, distributable cash and DIV Royalty Entitlement are non-IFRS financial measures, payout ratio is a non-IFRS ratio and weighted average organic royalty growth and SSSG are supplementary financial measures - see "Non-IFRS Measures" below.
Royalty Partner Business Updates
Mr. Lube + Tires: Mr. Lube Canada Limited Partnership ("Mr. Lube + Tires") generated SSSG2 of 7.7% for the Mr. Lube + Tires stores in the royalty pool for Q3 2024, compared to SSSG of 16.4% in Q3 2023.
2. Same-store-sales growth or SSSG is a supplementary financial measure - see "Non-IFRS Measures" below.
Stratus: Royalty income from SBS Franchising LLC ("Stratus") was $2.2 million (US$1.6 million translated at an average foreign exchange rate of $1.3634 to US$1.00) for Q3 2024. The fixed royalty payable by Stratus increases each November at a rate of 5% until and including November 2026 and 4% each November thereafter during the term of the license, with the most recent increase effective November 15, 2023.
Nurse Next Door: The royalty entitlement to DIV (the "DIV Royalty Entitlement3") from Nurse Next Door Professional Homecare Services Inc. ("Nurse Next Door") was $1.3 million in Q3 2024. The DIV Royalty Entitlement from Nurse Next Door grows at a fixed rate of 2.0% per annum during the term of the license, with the most recent increase effective October 1, 2024.
3. DIV Royalty Entitlement is a non-IFRS measure - see "Non-IFRS Measures" below.
Mr. Mikes: SSSG4 for the Mr. Mikes Restaurants Corporation ("Mr. Mikes") restaurants in the Mr. Mikes royalty pool was -3.1% in Q3 2024, compared to SSSG of 3.6% in Q3 2023. The lower SSSG percentage in the current period is due to lower restaurant guest traffic.
Royalty income and management fees of $1.1 million were generated from Mr. Mikes in Q3 2024, compared to $1.2 million in Q3 2023.
4. Same-store-sales growth or SSSG is a supplementary financial measure - see "Non-IFRS Measures" below.
Oxford: The Oxford Learning Centres, Inc. ("Oxford") locations in the Oxford royalty pool generated SSSG5 (on a constant currency basis) of 1.8% in Q3 2024, compared to SSSG of -0.9% in Q3 2023. Oxford's SSSG has returned to being positive after lapping the completion of the Ontario Government funding of student learning support, which included private tutoring, which funding completed in the first half of 2023.
5. Same-store-sales growth or SSSG is a supplementary financial measure - see "Non-IFRS Measures" below.
AIR MILES®: In Q3 2024, royalty income of $0.9 million was generated from the AIR MILES® Licenses compared to $1.1 million generated in Q3 2023, a decrease of 13.7% from the comparable quarter. The decrease is largely due to continued softness in the AIR MILES® Rewards Program.
Sutton: In Q3 2024, royalty income of $1.1 million was generated from Sutton. The fixed royalty payable by Sutton increases at a rate of 2% per year, with the most recent increase effective July 1, 2024.
BarBurrito: Royalty income from BarBurrito Restaurants Inc. ("BarBurrito") was $2.1 million for Q3 2024. The royalty payable by BarBurrito initially grows at a fixed rate of 4% per annum for the first seven years and, commencing on January 1, 2031, will fluctuate based on the gross sales of the BarBurrito locations in the royalty pool.
Third Quarter Commentary
Sean Morrison, President and Chief Executive Officer of DIV stated, "DIV is pleased with how its royalty partners performed in the third quarter of 2024. Mr. Lube, our largest royalty partner, continued to see growth, generating SSSG6 of 7.7% for the three-month period ended September 30, 2024. Oxford returned to positive SSSG of 1.8% in the third quarter after two quarters of mildly negative SSSG, while Mr. Mikes continued to show a slight decline similar to its Q1 and Q2 2024 performance. However, Mr. Mikes' management remains optimistic about its future opportunities for the business, including incremental location growth. Royalty partners Nurse Next Door, Sutton, Stratus and BarBurrito made their fixed royalty payments. DIV continues to see a decrease in royalty income from AIR MILES as a result of softness in the AIR MILES® Rewards Program. However, DIV management recently met with the President of AIR MILES and he highlighted their substantial commitment and continued investment in AIR MILES Rewards Program under BMO's ownership."
6. Same-store-sales growth or SSSG is a supplementary financial measure - see "Non-IFRS Measures" below.
Distributable Cash and Dividends Declared
In Q3 2024, distributable cash7 increased to $11.0 million ($0.0665 per share), compared to $9.1 million ($0.0638 per share) in Q3 2023. The increase in distributable cash7 for the quarter was primarily due to higher adjusted revenue7, and lower professional fees and general and administrative expenses, partially offset by higher interest expense, and salaries and benefits. The increase in distributable cash per share7 for the quarter was primarily due to an increase in distributable cash, partially offset by a higher weighted average number of common shares outstanding.
In Q3 2024, the payout ratio7 was 94.1% on dividends of $0.0625 per share, compared to the payout ratio of 94.4% on dividends of $0.0600 per share for the same respective period in 2023. The decrease was primarily due to higher distributable cash per share, partially offset by higher dividends declared per share 7.
7. Adjusted revenue and distributable cash are non-IFRS financial measures and distributable cash per share and payout ratio are non-IFRS ratios - see "Non-IFRS Measures" below.
Net Income
Net income for Q3 2024 was $6.9 million compared to net income of $6.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The increase in net income in Q3 2024 was primarily due to higher adjusted revenue8, lower professional fees and general and administrative expenses, partially offset by higher share-based compensation expenses, interest expense on credit facilities, and income tax expense.
8. Adjusted revenue is a non-IFRS financial measure - see "Non-IFRS Measures" below.
Diversified Royalty Corp. 10-Year Anniversary
DIV is proud to celebrate the 10-year anniversary of its first royalty transaction. On September 26, 2014, the Company completed its first royalty transaction and was renamed Diversified Royalty Corp. In conjunction with this, the Company began trading on the TSX under the stock symbol "DIV". Subsequently, DIV has completed 8 further royalty transactions with a diversified group of royalty partners. Since November 2014, DIV has paid a monthly dividend every month, without exception. These cumulative dividends total over $2.21 per share as of November 5, 2024. The combination of these dividends and share price appreciation equates to approximately a 15.9% annualized IRR9 since December 2013. With a diversified portfolio of royalty partners and proven business model, DIV is optimistic about its prospects over the next 10 years.
9. IRR is a supplementary financial measure - see "Non-IFRS Measures" below.

Non-IFRS Measures
Management believes that disclosing certain non-IFRS financial measures, non-IFRS ratios and supplementary financial measures provides readers with important information regarding the Corporation's financial performance and its ability to pay dividends and the performance of its royalty partners. By considering these measures in combination with the most closely comparable IFRS measure, management believes that investors are provided with additional and more useful information about the Corporation and its royalty partners than investors would have if they simply considered IFRS measures alone. The non-IFRS financial measures, non-IFRS ratios and supplementary financial measures do not have standardized meanings prescribed by IFRS and therefore are unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. Investors are cautioned that non-IFRS measures should not be construed as a substitute or an alternative to net income or cash flows from operating activities as determined in accordance with IFRS.
"Adjusted revenue", "adjusted royalty income", "DIV Royalty Entitlement" and "distributable cash" are used as non-IFRS financial measures in this news release.
Adjusted revenue is calculated as royalty income plus DIV Royalty Entitlement and management fees. The following table reconciles adjusted revenue and adjusted royalty income to royalty income, the most directly comparable IFRS measure disclosed in the financial statements:

The most closely comparable IFRS measure to DIV Royalty Entitlement is "distributions received from NND LP". DIV Royalty Entitlement is calculated as distributions received from NND LP, before any deduction for expenses incurred by NND Holdings Limited Partnership ("NND LP"), which expenses include legal, audit, tax and advisory services. Note that distributions received from NND LP is derived from the royalty paid by Nurse Next Door to NND LP.

For further details with respect to distributable cash, refer to the subsection "Non-IFRS Financial Measures" under "Description of Non-IFRS Financial Measures, Non-IFRS Ratios and Supplementary Financial Measures" in the Corporation's management's discussion and analysis for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, a copy of which is available on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.com.
"Distributable cash per share" and "payout ratio" are non-IFRS ratios that do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS, and therefore may not be comparable to similar ratios presented by other issuers. Distributable cash per share is defined as distributable cash, a non-IFRS measure, divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. The payout ratio is calculated by dividing the dividends per share during the period by the distributable cash per share, a non-IFRS measure, generated in that period. For further details, refer to the subsection entitled "Non-IFRS Ratios" under "Description of Non-IFRS Financial Measures, Non-IFRS Ratios and Supplementary Financial Measures" in the Corporation's management's discussion and analysis for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, a copy of which is available on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.com.
"Weighted average organic royalty growth" is the average same store sales growth percentage related to Mr. Lube + Tires, Oxford and Mr. Mikes (excluding the collection of Mr. Mikes deferred royalty management fees) plus the average increase in adjusted royalty income from AIR MILES®, Sutton, Nurse Next Door and Stratus over the prior comparable period taking into account the percentage weighting of each royalty partner's adjusted royalty income in proportion of the total adjusted royalty income for the period, excluding BarBurrito as there was no adjusted royalty income generated from BarBurrito in the prior period. Weighted average organic royalty growth is a supplementary financial measure and does not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS. However, the Corporation believes that weighted average organic royalty growth is a useful measure as it provides investors with an indication of the change in year-over-year growth of each royalty partner, taking into account the percentage weighting of royalty partner's growth in proportion of total growth, as applicable. The Corporation's method of calculating weighted average organic royalty growth may differ from those of other issuers or companies and, accordingly, weighted average organic royalty growth may not be comparable to similar measures used by other issuers or companies.
"Same store sales growth" or "SSSG" and "system sales" are supplementary financial measures and do not have standardized meanings prescribed by IFRS and therefore may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. SSSG and system sales figures are reported to DIV by its Royalty Partners - see "Third Party Information". For further details, refer to the subsection entitled "Supplementary Financial Measures" under "Description of Non-IFRS Financial Measures, Non-IFRS Ratios and Supplementary Financial Measures" in the Corporation's management's discussion and analysis for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, a copy of which is available on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.com.
"IRR" or Internal Rate of Return, is the compound annual rate of return that would have been generated on an investment in shares of DIV, calculated using the annual rate of return from all monthly dividends per share paid by DIV, plus the DIV share price appreciation per share over the relevant period. IRR is a supplementary financial measure and does not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and therefore may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers.
