Timbercreek Financial Announces 2024 Third Quarter Results

TORONTO, Oct. 30, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Timbercreek Financial (TSX: TF) (the “Company”) announced today its financial results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 (“Q3 2024”).

Q3 2024 Highlights1

  • The net mortgage investment portfolio increased by $14.1 million to $1,017.6 million at the end of Q3 2024 from $1,003.4 million at the end of Q2 2024 (Q3 2023 – $1,068.6 million).
  • Net investment income of $25.4 million compared to $30.3 million in Q3 2023.
  • Net income and comprehensive income of $14.1 million (Q3 2023 – $16.5 million) or basic earnings per share of $0.17 (Q3 2023 – $0.20).
  • Distributable income of $15.0 million (Q3 2023 – $16.8 million) or distributable income per share of $0.18 (Q3 2023 – $0.20 per share).
  • Declared a total of $14.3 million in dividends to shareholders, or $0.17 per share, reflecting a distributable income payout ratio of 95.3% (Q2 2023 – 85.6%).
  • The quarterly weighted average interest rate on net mortgage investments was 9.3% in Q3 2024, compared to 9.8% in Q2 2024 (Q3 2023 – 9.9%). Interest rate exposure in the net mortgage investment portfolio was well protected at the end of Q3 2024, with floating rate loans with rate floors representing 77.9% (Q3 2023 – 87.5%) of the net mortgage investment portfolio.
  • Maintained conservative portfolio risk composition focused on income-producing commercial real estate:
    • 63.8% weighted average loan-to-value ("LTV"); and        
    • 87.1% first mortgages in mortgage investment portfolio.
  • The Company's management team continues to focus on growing the portfolio and redeploying capital into loans at today's values in our core asset types, generating attractive returns relative to the portfolio today.

“The portfolio increased modestly in the quarter and we delivered solid financial results generating stable cash flows and dividends, even during a period of reduced transaction volume due to volatility in the commercial real estate markets," said Blair Tamblyn, CEO of Timbercreek Financial. “The commercial real estate environment is stabilizing and showing signs of steady improvement and we remain optimistic that additional rate cuts will strengthen market conditions and drive increased financing opportunities for Timbercreek. We are well positioned to deploy capital in this environment and expand the portfolio back to – or above – historical levels. At the same time, our team is effectively managing the remaining exposure to staged loans. The improved environment will add a tailwind as we work to resolve these situations and redeploy this capital into productive loans in our core asset types, such as multi-residential and industrial, where we see positive long-term market drivers.”

Mr. Tamblyn added: “In a decreasing rate environment, our monthly dividend provides shareholders with an increasing spread versus instruments such as high interest savings accounts and GICs."

Non-IFRS Measures

The Company prepares and releases financial statements in accordance with IFRS. As a complement to results provided in accordance with IFRS, the Company discloses certain financial measures not recognized under IFRS and that do not have standard meanings prescribed by IFRS (collectively the "non-IFRS measures"). These non-IFRS measures are further described in Management's Discussion and Analysis ("MD&A") available on SEDAR+. Certain non-IFRS measures relating to net mortgages, adjusted net income and comprehensive income and adjusted distributable income have been shown below. The Company has presented such non-IFRS measures because the Manager believes they are relevant measures of the Company’s ability to earn and distribute cash dividends to shareholders and to evaluate its performance. The following non-IFRS financial measures should not be construed as alternatives to total net income and comprehensive income or cash flows from operating activities as determined in accordance with IFRS as indicators of the Company’s performance.

Certain statements contained in this news release may contain projections and "forward looking statements" within the meaning of that phrase under Canadian securities laws. When used in this news release, the words "may", "would", "should", "could", "will", "intend", "plan", "anticipate", "believe", "estimate", "expect", "objective" and similar expressions may be used to identify forward looking statements. By their nature, forward looking statements reflect the Company's current views, beliefs, assumptions and intentions and are subject to certain risks and uncertainties, known and unknown, including, without limitation, those risks disclosed in the Company's public filings. Many factors could cause actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements that may be expressed or implied by these forward looking statements. The Company does not intend to nor assumes any obligation to update these forward looking statements whether as a result of new information, plans, events or otherwise, unless required by law.
