TORONTO, ONTARIO–(Marketwired – June 08, 2016) – Altus Group Limited (“Altus Group”) (TSX: AIF) a leading provider of independent advisory services, software and data solutions to the global commercial real estate (“CRE”) industry, announces the launch of ARGUS Developer 7.5 (“Developer 7.5”). The newly incorporated finance and accounting enhancements of Developer 7.5 provide powerful flexibility to manage project accounting costs, cash flows and actual-to-budget variances across multiple development phases and between systems for greater transparency and control.

“Developer 7.5 represents the most advanced, best-in-class solution in the industry to manage the entire development lifecycle in one intuitive and user-friendly platform. It provides clients the visibility and confidence they require to make strategic and informed decisions allowing them to maintain control over the risks and returns of their development projects,” said Robert Courteau, Chief Executive Officer, Altus Group.

As a universal platform to support CRE participants from inception through delivery on development projects, Developer 7.5 includes a number of enhancements to improve user experience including:

--  Flexible Accounting & Finance - Project costs can now be apportioned
    across multiple development phases using a fixed or percentage basis,
    and closed accounting periods may be re-opened in order to make
    adjustments and corrections. In addition, specific costs and revenues
    may be separately accounted for through the introduction of line-item
    finance.

--  Released Budgets - Additional budgets may be released for any amount or
    proportion of the total development budget at any stage of the project.
    This provides the ability to better track actuals, create variance
    reports and enables clients to understand risk exposure at any stage of
    project.

--  File-based Storage - Project files may be saved and stored without the
    use of a database and access to, and transfer between, existing database
    and file-based storage systems is now included for distribution of
    project files to clients.

--  English Stamp Duty - Handles tax on site acquisition costs and
    purchaser's costs related to recent changes to Stamp Duty legislation,
    made by the UK Government.

“ARGUS Developer enables us to effectively analyse and forecast a variety of acquisition and new development projects, resulting in more strategic and informed decisions on project viability across our portfolio,” said Joe Wright, Business Analyst at Barwood, a leading real estate development and investment management company in the UK.
