Terra Firma Capital Corporation Reports Second Quarter 2020 Financial Results
All amounts are stated in United States dollars unless otherwise indicated.TORONTO, Aug. 12, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Terra Firma Capital Corporation (TSX-V: TII) ("Terra Firma" or the “Company”), a real estate finance company, today released its financial results for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2020.Q2 2020 Financial Highlights: * Total Investments(1) of $116.9 million, compared to $125.8 million at June 30, 2019. * Book Value(2) per share of $7.12 (CAD$9.67(4)). * Paid CAD$0.05 in quarterly dividend. * Revenues decreased 5.5% to $3.7 million. * Adjusted net income and comprehensive income(3) decreased 15.4% to $687,000. * Adjusted basic and diluted earnings per share(3) decreased 14.3% to $0.12 (CAD$0.16(4)).Update on COVID-19 Response: * Enacted measures to protect the health and well-being of Terra Firma's employees. * Ceased all employee travel and new funding commitments. * Preserving strong balance sheet and ample liquidity with $8.5 million of cash and available line of credit.“We are pleased with our Q2 2020 financial position and results, especially given the difficulties that the COVID-19 pandemic presented the Company. Terra Firma has taken all the necessary steps to safeguard its employees and its capital in order to weather the storm. While this has meant no new originations during the quarter, the Company’s Adjusted Net Income remained healthy,” said Glenn Watchorn, CEO of Terra Firma Capital Corporation. “It seems somewhat counterintuitive, but the housing market in the U.S. has been very strong during the crisis with many of our borrowers reporting record sales over the months of May, June and July. We believe that this is largely due to record-low mortgage rates, low supply, pent-up demand and the overall health of the housing market prior to the crisis. Consequently, Terra Firma is now actively pursuing new originations. We are also currently working on several transactions that had previously been postponed, which are expected to close by the end of Q3. We do, however, remain cautious as it is yet to be seen what the economy and the housing market will look like after the government stimulus and subsidies end. As such, we will continue to take a defensive approach as it relates to the Company’s financial position and any new transactions.”For the three-month period ended June 30, 2020, revenues decreased 5.5% to $3.7 million, compared to $4.0 million during the same period in 2019. Interest and fee income decreased by 17.2% to $3.0 million compared to $3.6 million in 2019, primarily due to $1.7 million of loss of interest and fees revenue from loan and mortgage investments repaid after June 30, 2019. The decrease was partially offset by an increase in interest and fees of $934,000 from new loans funded subsequent to June 30, 2019 and $160,000 of additional interest earned from loans existed at June 30, 2019. Finance income increased by 119.9% to 737,000 from $335,000, due to an increase in investment in finance leases.For the six-month period ended June 30, 2020, revenues decreased 1.2% to $7.8 million, compared to $7.9 million during the same period in 2019. Interest and fee income decreased by 14.2% to $6.3 million compared to $7.4 million in 2019, primarily due to $3.2 million of loss of interest and fees revenue from loan and mortgage investments repaid after June 30, 2019. The decrease was partially offset by an increase in interest and fees of $1.8 million from new loans funded subsequent to June 30, 2019 and $352,000 of additional interest earned from loans existed at June 30, 2019. Finance income increased by 226.0% to $1.4 million from $420,000, due to an increase in investment in finance leases.Interest and financing expense for the three-month period ended June 30, 2020, remained relatively unchanged at $2.1 million compared to $2.0 million in the same period last year.Interest and financing expense for the six-month period ended June 30, 2020, remained unchanged at $4.4 million, compared to the same period last year.General and administrative expenses for the three-month period ended June 30, 2020, was $732,000 compared to $794,000 for the same period last year. The increase in general and administrative expenses was primarily due to the Company not incurring legal fees relating to loans that were in arrears. General and administrative expenses for the six-month period ended June 30, 2020, was $1,471,000 compared to $1,575,000 for the same period last year.During the three-month period ended June 30, 2020, the Company provided an allowance for uncollectible receivable of $161,000 compared to nil in the same period last year and an allowance for loan and mortgage investment loss of $811,000 compared to a recovery of $152,000 in the same period last year.During the six-month period ended June 30, 2020, the Company provided an allowance for uncollectible receivable of $161,000 compared to nil in the same period last year and an allowance for loan and mortgage investment loss of $917,000 compared to a recovery of $152,000 in the same period last year.The net income and comprehensive income for the three-month period ended June 30, 2020, was $324,000 or $0.06 per basic and diluted share compared to net income and comprehensive income of $867,000 or $0.15 per basic and diluted share for the same period last year.

The net income for the three and six months period was impacted primarily by an additional provision for loan investment and other receivable losses, along with the unrealized foreign exchange losses from the devaluation of the Canadian dollar and a resulting increase in provision for income for the purposes of Canadian taxes.The Company’s Total Investments(2) at June 30, 2020, was $116.9, compared to $125.8 million at June 30, 2019, a decrease of 7.1% or $8.9 million, primarily due to net repayments in loan and mortgage investments, which was partially offset by net fundings in investment in finance leases. The Company has ceased all origination activities due to COVID-19 pandemic.The principal balance of the Company’s loan and mortgage syndications from $69.2 million at June 30, 2019 to $73.8 million at June 30, 2020, an increase of $4.6 million or 6.6%.The Company’s Management’s Discussion & Analysis and Financial Statements as at and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 have been filed and are available under the Company’s profile on SEDAR (www.sedar.com).About Terra FirmaTerra Firma is a full service, publicly traded real estate finance company that provides real estate financings secured by investment properties and real estate developments in Canada and throughout the United States.
