Timbercreek Financial Announces 2022 First Quarter Results

Timbercreek Financial
Timbercreek Financial

TORONTO, May 10, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Timbercreek Financial (TSX: TF) (the “Company”) announced today its financial results for the three months ended March 31, 2022 (“Q1 2022”).

Q1 2022 Highlights1

  • Q1 2022 results reflect high funding volumes from a strong pipeline of opportunities. The Company executed on net new mortgage fundings of $210.5 million, and advances on existing mortgages of $16.1 million, offset by net mortgage repayments of $122.2 million. At the end of the period, net mortgage investments were $1,263.3 million (versus $1,159.6 at year-end 2021). The robust transaction volume resulted in a Q1 2022 turnover ratio of 11.4%.

  • Declared $14.3 million in dividends to shareholders, or $0.17 per share, and delivered distributable income and adjusted distributable income of $15.2 million, or $0.18 per share, representing a payout ratio of 93.9% on both distributable income and adjusted distributable income. The Q1 2022 adjusted distributable income payout ratio of 93.9% was within management's target payout range of low to mid-90s for the quarter and compares with 91.2% for Q1 2021.

  • Net income and comprehensive income of $12.9 million which includes $0.9 million of fair value losses on mortgages and investment properties measured at fair value through profit and loss. After adjusting for these losses, adjusted net income and comprehensive income was $13.8 million for the period.

  • Basic and diluted earnings per share were $0.16, and basic and diluted adjusted earnings per share were $0.17, reflecting a payout ratio of 93.9% (Q1 2021 – 91.2%) on an adjusted distributable income basis.

  • Maintained conservative portfolio risk position focused on income-producing commercial real estate

    • 71.3% weighted average loan-to-value

    • 92.5% first mortgages in mortgage investment portfolio

    • 90.3% of mortgage investment portfolio is invested in cash-flowing properties

    • 6.6% quarterly weighted average interest rate on net mortgage investments

  • Expanded the credit facility by $59 million in February, which provided greater ability to fund more loans accretively, resulting in an increased credit facility utilization rate of 92.0% as at Q1 2022 (Q1 2021 - 87.2%).

  • Subsequent to quarter-end, the Company completed the disposition of the Saskatchewan Portfolio for proceeds approximating carrying value as well as successfully aligned its interest in two FVTPL loans to an equity position in one of the assets that can now be positioned for sale

“Overall, it was a good start to 2022 as our team managed a particularly busy period on the funding front, reflecting improved market activity, our expanded capital base, and Timbercreek’s strong standing and reputation in the market nationally,” said Blair Tamblyn, CEO of Timbercreek Financial. “At the same time, we made meaningful progress to exit the remaining non-core assets, which will free up additional capital to put to work in core mortgages that will be accretive to distributable income. Looking ahead, our expectation is that interest rate increases will also have a positive impact on our distributable income as the majority of our loans are structured with floating rates. Given the short duration of our loans, we have considerable flexibility to react to changing real estate fundamentals in a rising rate environment.”

About the Company

Timbercreek Financial is a leading non-bank, commercial real estate lender providing shorter-duration, structured financing solutions to commercial real estate professionals. Our sophisticated, service-oriented approach allows us to meet the needs of borrowers, including faster execution and more flexible terms that are not typically provided by Canadian financial institutions. By employing thorough underwriting, active management and strong governance, we are able to meet these needs while generating strong risk-adjusted yields for investors. Further information is available on our website, www.timbercreekfinancial.com.

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.

Net Mortgage Investments

The Company’s exposure to the financial returns is related to the net mortgage investments as mortgage syndication liabilities are non-recourse mortgages with periodic variance having no impact on Company's financial performance. Reconciliation of gross and net mortgage investments balance is as follows:
