Timbercreek Financial Announces 2022 Third Quarter Results

November 10, 2022 7:00 AM EST

TORONTO, Nov. 10, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Timbercreek Financial (TSX: TF) (the “Company”) announced today its financial results for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2022 (“Q3 2022”).

Q3 2022 Highlights1

  • Q3 2022 results reflect a healthy and stable portfolio with lower turnover. Net new mortgage fundings were $54.2 million and advances on existing mortgages were $34.6 million, offset by net mortgage repayments of $41.2 million and syndications of $26.9 million. As noted last quarter, Management anticipated lower origination volumes in Q3 2022, however, the increase in interest income more than replaced the historical level of lender fees.
  • At the end of the period, net mortgage investments were $1,255.4 million (versus $1,159.6 million at year-end 2021). The quarterly transaction volume resulted in a Q3 2022 turnover ratio of 3.3%.
  • Declared $14.5 million in dividends to shareholders, or $0.17 per share, and delivered distributable income and adjusted distributable income of $16.8 million, or $0.20 per share, representing a payout ratio of 86.2% on both distributable income and adjusted distributable income which is well within Management’s target payout range.
  • Net income and comprehensive income of $13.5 million. After adjusting for $0.4 million of fair value losses on mortgages and real estate properties measured at fair value through profit and loss, adjusted net income and comprehensive income was $13.9 million for the period, up from $13.7 million in the same period last year.
  • 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 104.3% (Q3 2021 – 102.3%) on an adjusted distributable income basis.
  • There were no new additions to either Stage II or Stage III loans in Q3 2022, however, allowance for credit losses increased to $3.73 million due to increased provisions on an existing Stage III loan comprised of condominium units in Edmonton that are currently for sale.
  • Maintained conservative portfolio risk position focused on income-producing commercial real estate
    • 69.4% weighted average loan-to-value     `          
    • 90.9% first mortgages in  mortgage investment portfolio
    • 89.3% of mortgage investment portfolio is invested in cash-flowing properties
    • 8.5% quarterly weighted average interest rate on net mortgage investments
  • In July, the Company partially exercised the accordion feature on its credit facility, increasing the facility size to $600.0 million (from $575.0 million).

“Our mortgage portfolio continued to perform well in the third quarter, demonstrating the durability through market cycles that has become a hallmark of our income-focused investment philosophy,” said Blair Tamblyn, CEO of Timbercreek Financial. “We generated strong distributable income in the quarter as our largely variable rate portfolio benefited from the rising rate environment, offsetting an anticipated reduction in repayments and origination volume. We anticipate a return to more typical transaction levels in the coming quarters, and we continue to be well positioned to act on these opportunities.”

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.

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.
