NOTES TO PRO FORMA CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
(in thousands of US dollars)


1.           Background and basis of presentation

On March 11, 2015, the Board of Directors of FirstService Corporation (“FirstService”) unanimously approved a proposal to split FirstService into two independent companies, being (i) a Commercial Real Estate Services company operating principally as Colliers International and (ii) a Residential Real Estate Services and Property Services company operating principally as FirstService Residential and several franchise brand companies including California Closets, Paul Davis Restoration and CertaPro Painters.

The proposed corporate reorganization (the “Arrangement”) received shareholder approval on April 21, 2015. The Arrangement would be implemented through a court approved plan of arrangement and remains subject to certain conditions. The reorganization would result in two publicly traded entities with the Residential Real Estate Services and Property Services company named FirstService Corporation (“New FSV”), and FirstService renamed as Colliers International Group Inc. (“Colliers”). FirstService shareholders would receive one New FSV Multiple Voting Share or Subordinate Voting Share for each FirstService Multiple Voting Share or Subordinate Voting Share held, respectively.

The unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2014 have been prepared from the FirstService audited Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2014, as well as the audited New FSV Carve-out Combined Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2014. The unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2015 have been prepared from the FirstService unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements for the three months ended March 31, 2015 as well as the unaudited New FSV Carve-out Combined Financial Statements for the three months ended March 31, 2015. The New FSV Carve-out Combined Financial Statements were derived from the accounting records of FirstService on a carve-out basis and therefore include allocated costs, which may not be representative of the costs that may be incurred in the future as an independent, publicly-traded company.

These unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the FirstService audited Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2014 and unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and related Management’s Discussion and Analysis, as well as the audited New FSV Carve-out Combined Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2014 and unaudited Carve-out Combined Financial Statements for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and related Management’s Discussion and Analysis.

These unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements are for illustrative and information purposes only and may not be indicative of the results that actually would have occurred if the Arrangement had been in effect on the dates indicated or of the results that may be obtained in the future. In addition to the pro forma adjustments to the historical carve-out combined financial statements, various other factors may have an effect on the financial condition and results of operations after the completion of the Arrangement.

The unaudited pro forma consolidated balance sheets give effect to the Arrangement as if it had taken place on December 31, 2014 and March 31, 2015. The unaudited pro forma consolidated statements of earnings give effect to the Arrangement as if it had taken place on January 1, 2014 and January 1, 2015, the beginning of the most recent fiscal periods for which New FSV Carve-out Combined Financial Statements are available. Note 2 outlines the pro forma assumptions and adjustments that have been made.

For the year ended December 31, 2014 New FSV was allocated corporate general and administrative expenses of $10,680 (three months ended March 31, 2015 - $2,101). Corporate general and administrative expenses include costs related to finance, legal, treasury, insurance, corporate development and costs associated with being a public company. Effective with the Arrangement, New FSV will assume responsibility for all of these functions and related costs.

Colliers expects that its annual corporate general and administrative expenses will increase approximately $1,300 in 2015 compared to 2014 on account of incremental costs required to function as an independent public company. No pro forma adjustments have been made to the statement of earnings to reflect the incremental expenses described in this paragraph.

2.           Pro forma assumptions and adjustments

A.  
Pro forma adjustment to income tax expense to reflect new legal and corporate structure after completion of the Arrangement.

B.  
Adjustments to increase accounts payable to accrue for the Colliers share of the estimated transaction costs to complete the Arrangement. This results from the pro forma consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2014 giving effect to the Arrangement as of December 31, 2014. The pro forma consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2015 gives effect to the Arrangement as of March 31, 2015.

C.  
Pro forma net basic and diluted earnings per common share is calculated using the same weighted average number of pre-arrangement FirstService basic and diluted common shares (Multiple Voting Shares and Subordinate Voting Shares) outstanding as at December 31, 2014 and March 31, 2015

D.  
The amount of the FirstService net investment in New FSV, which was recorded by New FSV as FirstService’s net investment in its Carve-out Combined Financial Statements, is reclassified to retained earnings. FirstService’s net investment in New FSV is subject to amendment in accordance with any adjustments arising from the transition agreement to achieve New FSV’s new capital structure post-split.

E.  
The long-term debt attributed to New FSV is subject to amendment at the time of the Arrangement in accordance with any adjustments arising from the transition agreement to achieve New FSV’s new capital structure post-split.
