Atrium Mortgage Investment Corporation Announces Second Quarter Results

Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - July 29, 2020) - Atrium Mortgage Investment Corporation (TSX: AI) (TSX:AI.DB.B) (TSX: AI.DB.C) (TSX: AI.DB.D) (TSX: AI.DB.E) today released its financial results for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2020.

Highlights

  • Quarterly revenues of $16.2 million, down 2.0% from the second quarter of the prior year

  • Quarterly net income of $9.8 million, up 1.6% from the second quarter of the prior year

  • $0.23 basic and diluted earnings per share for the quarter

  • $0.47 basic and diluted earnings per share year-to-date

  • Mortgage portfolio of $679.96 million, 6.8% decrease from December 31, 2019

  • High quality mortgage portfolio

    • 85.4% of portfolio in first mortgages

    • 93.9% of portfolio is less than 75% loan to value

    • average loan-to-value is 59.0%

"We are pleased with the second quarter results which exceeded our quarterly dividend, even after taking another $1.0 million loan loss provision. Atrium now has an aggregate loan loss provision exceeding 1.0% of our mortgage portfolio which will help protect our balance sheet from the impact of COVID 19. The increase in our loan loss provision is consistent with the actions of the major Canadian and US banks.

In Q2, we also executed on our strategy to scale back lending in order to increase our liquidity and be in a position to cautiously resume lending as the real estate market emerges from the downturn. As a result, we expect that Q3 will be a more active quarter for new mortgages," said Rob Goodall, CEO of Atrium.

Interested parties are invited to participate in a conference call with management Friday, July 30, 2020 at 4:00 p.m. ET to discuss the results.
