Q1 2025 Highlights

• Q1 2025 same asset revenue has increased by 64.26% to $16.38 million compared to $9.97 million in Q1 2024, overall increase was primarily driven by the incline in US full-service hotels, especially due to the completion of the extensive renovations at the Autograph hotel (formerly Renaissance hotel). Total revenue from hotels and resorts was $16.9 million compared to $21.9 million in Q1 2024; the decrease is mainly due to the sale of 11 Courtyard hotels in September 2024 and Courtyard Tucson in January 2025.

• Q1 2025 same asset NOI¹ increased to $55 thousand compared to a loss of $1.06 million in Q1 2024. The increase over prior year is primarily driven by higher revenues at the Autograph, and partially offset by increases in operating expenses across the portfolio.

• Q1 2025 Adjusted EBITDA² was ($2.3) million compared to ($1.9) million in Q1 2024.

• Q1 2025 Funds from Operations ("FFO")¹ was negative $2.6 million (or negative $0.16) per share, compared to a negative Q1 2024 FFO of $5.96 million (or negative $0.36) per share.

• The book value per share of the shareholder equity is 26.79 NIS ($10.35), per share, which is 37% above the closing price of its shares at March 31, 2025.

INCOME STATEMENT HIGHLIGHTS

All amounts in millions of Canadian dollars unless otherwise stated

• Total revenue for Q1 2025 was $16.9, compared to $21.9 in Q1 2024. Revenue from hotels and resorts decreased by 22.9% to $16.9 driven by the sale of 11 Courtyard hotels in September 2024 and Courtyard Tucson in January 2025, partially offset by an increase in Autograph revenues after its rebranding and reopening in 2024. Same asset revenue increased by 64.3% relative to Q1 2024.

• Same asset NOI for Q1 2025 was $55 thousand, compared to ($1.06) in Q1 2024. The increase over prior year is mainly due to completion of hotel renovations.

• Adjusted EBITDA for Q1 2025 was ($2.3), compared to ($1.9) in Q1 2024.

• Net financial expense for Q1 2025 totalled $7.2, compared to $6.9 in Q1 2024, driven primarily by a provision for credit losses for Freed VTBs and Notes Receivable. This was partially offset by lower interest rates and a decrease in loans compared to prior year, including due to repayment of bonds.

• FFO for Q1 2025 was ($2.6) compared to ($5.96) in Q1 2024. There is an increase in FFO due to the hotel renovations, as discussed above, which negatively impacted earnings in prior periods, partially offset by an increase in provision for losses on Freed VTBs.

• Net income (loss) for Q1 2025 was ($11.3), compared to ($10.06) in Q1 2024. Excluding minority interests, the Company had net income (loss) of ($8.3) in Q1 2025, compared to net income (loss) of ($7.7) in Q1 2024.

• Total comprehensive income (loss) for Q1 2025 was ($9.02) compared to total comprehensive loss of ($14.9) in Q1 2024.

BALANCE SHEET HIGHLIGHTS

• Total assets as at March 31, 2025 were $425.5 compared to $458.8 as at December 31, 2024. The decrease was primarily driven by debt payments, and capital expenditure payments, partially offset by the additions to PP&E as a result of renovations at the Autograph.

• Cash and cash equivalents were $17.6 as at March 31, 2025 compared to $24.6 as at December 31, 2024. The decrease was driven mainly from capital expenditures, and net debt payments.

• Net debt as at March 31, 2025 totalled $166.7, an increase of $6.86 (or 4.3%) compared to net debt of $159.8 as at December 31, 2024. The increase was primarily driven by additional bank construction loan draw (US $1) for Autograph hotel, and additional draw in Ithaca renovation loan (US 0.12). This was partially offset by the loan payments made during the quarter.

• Total equity attributable to shareholders was $172.8 ($198.8 including non-controlling interest), representing 47% of total assets. Equity per share attributable to shareholders was 26.79 NIS ($10.35), compared to the closing share price on March 31, 2025 of 16.78 NIS ($6.48), a discount of 37%.

Non-IFRS Measures

The Company's consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS"). However, the following measures: NOI, FFO, FFO per share and Adjusted EBITDA are not measures recognized under IFRS and do not have standardized meanings prescribed by IFRS, and should not be compared to or construed as alternatives to profit/loss, cash flow from operating activities or other measures of financial performance determined in accordance with IFRS. NOI, FFO, FFO per share and Adjusted EBITDA as computed by the Company, may differ from similar measures as reported by other companies in similar or different industries. However, these non-IFRS measures are recognized supplemental measures of performance for real estate issuers widely used by the real estate industry, particularly by those publicly traded entities that own and operate income-producing properties, and the Company believes they provide useful supplemental information to both management and readers in measuring the financial performance of the Company. Skyline also uses certain supplementary financial measures as key performance indicators. Supplementary financial measures are financial measures that are intended to be disclosed on a periodic basis to depict the historical or expected future financial performance, financial position, or cash flow, that are not disclosed directly in the financial statements and are not non-IFRS measures. Same Asset NOI is a financial measure that is calculated using the same methodology as NOI, but only including NOI from properties owned for 2 full years prior to March 31, 2025.

Further details on non-IFRS measures and Supplementary Financial Measures are set out in the Company's Management's Discussion and Analysis for the period ended March 31, 2025 and available on the Company's profile on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.com or MAGNA at www.magna.isa.gov.il and are incorporated by reference in this news release.

The reconciliations for each non-IFRS measure included in this news release are outlined as follows:

NOI

Skyline defines NOI as property revenues less property operating expenses. Management believes that NOI is a useful key indicator of performance on an unlevered basis as it represents a measure over which Management of property operations has control. NOI is also a key input used by management in determining the value of the Properties. NOI is used by industry analysts, investors and Management to measure operating performance of Canadian companies. NOI represents revenue from cash generating properties less property operating expenses excluding depreciation as presented in the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income prepared in accordance with IFRS.

Given the seasonality of its hospitality operations, NOI for a fiscal year (or trailing four quarters) is considered by Management as a more accurate measure of the Company's performance.

Skyline calculates NOI as operating income before depreciation, valuation adjustments and other income, adjusted for:

1. Segmented results from Development Segment

2. Selling and Marketing expenses

3. Administrative and General expenses

Alternatively, the same result is arrived at by adding segmented results (per note 12 in the consolidated financial statements) of the Company's hotels and resorts. The following table sets out a reconciliation of NOI from hotels and resorts to operating income before depreciation, valuation adjustments and other income:

FFO

FFO is a non-IFRS financial measure of operating performance widely used by the real estate industry, particularly by those publicly traded entities that own and operate income-producing properties. FFO is not an alternative to net income determined in accordance with IFRS. Skyline calculates the financial measure in accordance with the guidelines of the Israel Security Authority. The use of FFO, combined with the data required under IFRS, has been included for the purpose of improving the understanding of the operating results of Skyline.

Management believes that FFO provides an operating performance measure that, when compared period-over- period, reflects the impact on operations of trends in occupancy, room rates, operating costs and realty taxes and interest costs, and provides a perspective of the Company's financial performance that is not immediately apparent from net income determined in accordance with IFRS. FFO excludes from net income items that do not arise from operating activities, such as fair value adjustments, purchase transaction costs, and deferred income taxes, if any. FFO, however, still includes non-cash revenues related to accounting for straight-line rent and makes no deduction for recurring capital expenditures necessary to sustain the Company's existing revenue stream. It should be emphasized that the method of calculation of this indicator by the Company may differ from the method of calculation applied by other companies. The following table sets out a reconciliation of FFO to net income:

Funds from Operations (FFO)

Adjusted EBITDA

The Company's operations include income producing assets and revenue from the sale of developed real estate. As such, Management believes Adjusted EBITDA (as defined below) is a useful supplemental measure of its operating performance for investors and debt holders.

EBITDA is defined as Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization. The Company calculates Adjusted EBITDA as follows:

• Income from hotels and resorts;

• Sale of residential real estate;

Less:

• Operating expenses from hotels and resorts;

• Cost of sales of residential real estate;

• Selling and marketing expenses;

• Administration and general expenses

Adjusted EBITDA does not include fair value gains, gains on sale or other expenses, and is presented in the Company's consolidated statement of profit and loss for year ended March 31, 2025 as operating income before depreciation, valuation adjustments and other income.
