North America Home Finance raises HYU dividend to $10.54 per unit

Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - August 19, 2026) - North America Home Finance Inc. (CSE: NAHF) (CSE: NAHF.PR.A) (" NAHF " or the " Company ") is pleased to provide notice that the directors have declared a dividend for the Series 1 Preferred Shares in the amount of $0.134 per share, which matches the distribution declared for the underlying Housing Yield Units. Important dates are as follows:

Ex-Dividend Date: August 31st, 2026

Record Date: August 31st, 2026

Payment Date: September 15th, 2026

North America Home Finance Inc. (" NAHF " or the " Company ") is also providing notice that the trustees of NAHF Real Estate Trust (the " Trust ") set the value per Housing Yield Unit (" HYU ") at $10.54, which is the price offered for unit subscriptions or redemptions beginning September 1 st , 2026.

This is relevant to holders of the Company's Series 1 Preferred Shares , known as Housing Shares (NAHF.PR.A), as they are backed by an equal number of HYUs of the Trust on a 1-to-1 basis.

Housing Shares are designed to provide investors with exposure to residential housing value creation through an ownership interest backed by an equal number of HYUs of the Trust. The Company believes this structure provides a unique way for investors to participate in the long-term performance of residential housing assets while benefiting from both housing market appreciation and mortgage principal reduction.

Growth Driven By Mortgage Principal Reduction

As stated in the Trust's announcement filed on SEDAR+ 1 , the increase in the Trust's deemed value of the HYUs during the quarter was driven entirely by mortgage principal repayment associated with the Trust's underlying residential housing assets, including the Saanich Ridge and Five Crossings rental home portfolios. 2

The result highlights one of the distinguishing characteristics of the Housing Share structure. Even during periods when housing markets are flat or experiencing modest declines, the reduction of mortgage debt can continue to increase underlying equity value and growth.

High-Water Mark Adjustment

The Trust also announced that the HYUs are within a high-water mark measurement period.

The benchmark for future housing price appreciation calculations will be based on the June 2025 Home Price Index levels applicable to the housing markets in which the Trust holds assets. As a result, future HYU price determinations are expected to be attributable by the Trust to housing market appreciation once market values exceed this benchmark level.
