Timbercreek Financial Announces 2021 Third Quarter Results

TORONTO, Nov. 10, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Timbercreek Financial (TSX: TF) (the “Company”) announced today its financial results for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2021 (“Q3 2021”) and changes to its Board of Directors.

Q3 2021 Highlights

  • Funded $176.8 million on new and existing mortgages versus repayments of $235.6 million, ending the period with a portfolio size of net mortgage investments at $1,096.0 million. The transaction volume resulted in a Q3 turnover ratio of 17.1% versus 7.2% in Q2. The Q3 2021 results are reflective of high funding volumes, however these were offset with significant repayments late in the quarter. The Company was in a strong liquidity position entering what is expected to be an active Q4 2021 from a capital deployment perspective.

  • Delivered distributable income and adjusted distributable income of $13.5 million or $0.17 per share and declared $14.0 million in dividends to shareholders, representing a 103.7% payout ratio on both distributable income and adjusted distributable income for the quarter. The year-to-date 2021 adjusted payout ratio is 94.9% versus 97.9% for year-to-date 2020, within management's target pay out range of low to mid 90s for the full year.

  • Basic and diluted earnings per share was $0.13, and basic and diluted adjusted earnings per share was $0.17. Adjusted earnings per share payout ratio was 102.3%.

  • Maintained conservative portfolio risk position focused on income-producing commercial real estate
    • 69.6% weighted average loan-to-value
    • 90.2% of mortgage investment portfolio are first mortgages
    • 87.1% of mortgage investment portfolio is invested in cash-flowing properties
    • 7.1% quarterly weighted average interest rate on net mortgage investments

“In what is typically a slower period for new transaction activity our team drove high volumes of funding, offsett by a higher level of repayments which position us well to capitalize on a strong fourth quarter pipeline,” said Blair Tamblyn, CEO of Timbercreek Financial. “The portfolio delivered distributable income per share in our historical range while continuing to demonstrate the stability and durability that are hallmarks of our investment style. Looking ahead, we have an expanded capital base and the financial flexibility to achieve steady growth of the total portfolio.”

Non-IFRS Measures

The Company prepares and releases financial statements in accordance with IFRS.

These non-IFRS measures are further described in Management's Discussion and Analysis ("MD&A") available on SEDAR. 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.
