MortgageBrokers.com Holdings, Inc. Announces 2009 Third Quarter Results

    
    Company Reports Another Quarter of Strong Growth Despite Slow Year in
    Mortgage Industry
    

TORONTO , Nov. 24 /CNW/ - MortgageBrokers.com Holdings, Inc. (OTCBB: MBKR, the 'Company'), one of North America's leading mortgage brokerage brands and consolidation firms, is pleased to announce its results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2009 .

"We are extremely pleased with our continued growth and performance despite the slow Canadian economy." said Alex Haditaghi, CEO of Mortgagebrokers.com, "with several economic indicators trending upwards and low interest rates available for home-buyers, we are very excited and optimistic about our future."

Financial highlights for the Company in the third quarter include:

    
    -   A net income of $741,630 for the third quarter ended September 30,
        2009 as compared to a net loss of $(562,510) for the third quarter
        2008.

    -   Gross revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2009 decreased
        by 7% to $5,024,799 from that of the three months ended September 30,
        2008. This is primarily associated with a material increase in the
        foreign exchange rate of approximately 15% in 2009 from that of 2008
        that Mortagebrokers.com was exposed to, as all of the Company's
        operations are currently in Canada. However, on a dollar-to-dollar
        basis using a Canadian dollar comparative, gross revenue in the third
        quarter 2009 actually increased by 6.5% from that of 2008 to CDN
        $5,878,010. This comparative increase was a direct result of the
        Company increasing the number of mortgage sales agents by 3% as well
        as an increase in the productivity of the existing sales force during
        the period. The management at Mortgagebrokers.com feels that this
        accomplishment is significant, as studies have shown that the
        national mortgage broker channel mortgage origination volume in
        Canada declined in 2009 by approximately 15% from that of the same
        nine month period in 2008.

    -   A net income for the nine months ending September 30, 2009 of
        $821,369 as compared to a net loss of $(186,100) for the nine months
        ended September 30, 2008.

    -   Gross revenue for the first nine months of 2009 showed an increase of
        1.4% from that of the same nine month period in 2008 to $12,022,101.
        These figures were also affected by the material increase in the
        foreign exchange rate between periods. However, on a dollar-to-dollar
        basis using a Canadian dollar comparative, gross revenue in the first
        nine months ending September 30, 2009 actually increased by 16.5%
        from the same period in 2008 to CDN $14,063,454. The Company's
        ability to attract successful and professional agents to its mortgage
        broker network and the Company's investment into tools and sales
        management to help improve agent productivity allowed for the
        impressive growth at a time when the overall industry was in a
        decline.
    

Mortgagebrokers.com had 426 licensed mortgage agents operating across Canada as of September 30, 2009 . The Company is committed to expanding its industry footprint through 2010 by adding strong and successful agents to its network.
