Capital Trust Reports Second Quarter 2011 Results
NEW YORK, Aug. 3, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Capital Trust, Inc. (NYSE: CT) today reported results for the quarter ended June 30, 2011.
- Operating Results:
- Reported consolidated net loss of $1.8 million, or $(0.08) per share for the second quarter.
- Consolidated assets were $2.4 billion as of June 30, 2011, offset by consolidated liabilities of $2.5 billion, resulting in a shareholders’ deficit of $110.9 million.
- Consistent with last quarter, the Company reported adjusted earnings and adjusted balance sheets for Capital Trust, Inc. and its subsidiary, CT Legacy REIT. These adjusted presentations generally exclude consolidated securitization vehicles and loan participations sold from the Company’s operating results and financial position, as well as certain non-cash expenses related to hedging activities.
- The Company’s adjusted loss for the second quarter was $6.3 million, or $(0.28) per share.
- The Company’s adjusted results were primarily attributable to the loss it recognized from its investment in CT Legacy REIT. CT Legacy REIT lost $14.7 million for the quarter on an adjusted basis, of which the Company recognized $6.0 million. Absent this loss, the Company’s adjusted net loss was $297,000, driven by a $1.1 million income tax provision. The Company’s cash-basis net income was $1.5 million for the quarter.
- Adjusted assets were $108.1 million as of June 30, 2011, offset by adjusted liabilities of $16.1 million, resulting in adjusted shareholders’ equity of $91.9 million. Based on 24.7 million shares outstanding (fully diluted basis) at quarter end, adjusted book value per share was $3.73.
Capital Trust, Inc.
The Company, which has $28.4 million of unencumbered cash and no recourse debt obligations, has unencumbered ownership of 100% of: (i) its investment management platform, CT Investment Management Co., LLC, (ii) its co-investment in CT Opportunity Partners I, LP, (iii) its residual ownership interests in CT CDOs I, II, and IV, and (iv) its net operating loss carryforwards. Furthermore, the Company has a 52% equity interest in the common stock of CT Legacy REIT. The Company’s economic interest in CT Legacy REIT, however, is subject to its obligations under (i) the secured notes, (ii) the management incentive awards plan that provide for the participation in the recovery of CT Legacy REIT, and (iii) the subordinate class B common stock of CT Legacy REIT.
In addition to the Company’s interest in the common stock of CT Legacy REIT, it also owns 100% of CT Legacy REIT’s class A preferred stock. The class A preferred stock initially entitles the Company to cumulative preferred dividends of $7.5 million per annum, which dividends will be reduced in 2013 as the CT Legacy REIT portfolio assets repay or are sold.
- Assets:
- Cash of $28.4 million as of June 30, 2011.
- $10.5 million co-investment in CT Opportunity Partners I, LP ($25.0 million commitment, of which $14.5 million remains unfunded).
- Equity interest in the CT Legacy REIT portfolio of $65.6 million on an adjusted basis. During the quarter the Company purchased additional class B shares of CT Legacy REIT from its former lenders, resulting in a $708,000 increase to adjusted book value. Net of its obligations under the secured notes and management incentive awards plan described above, the Company’s equity interest in the CT Legacy REIT portfolio is $45.1 million on an adjusted basis.
- Liabilities:
- No recourse liabilities.
- $7.5 million face amount of notes (payoff amount of $11.1 million) secured solely by the Company’s initial equity interests in the common stock of CT Legacy REIT. The secured notes mature on March 31, 2016 and bear interest at a rate of 8.2%, which may be deferred until maturity.
CT Legacy REIT
In connection with its March 2011 restructuring, the Company transferred substantially all of its directly held interest earning assets to CT Legacy REIT. The transferred assets included: (i) all of the loans and securities which serve as collateral for the legacy repurchase obligations, except for subordinate interests in certain CT CDOs, (ii) the Company’s subordinate interests in CT CDO III, and (iii) 100% of the Company’s previously unencumbered loans and securities.
CT Legacy REIT, which is expected to be taxed as a REIT commencing in 2011, is owned 52% by the Company, 24% by an affiliate of the mezzanine loan lender, and 24% by the Company’s former lenders under its senior credit facility. In addition, CT Legacy REIT issued a subordinate class of common stock to the Company’s former junior subordinated noteholders. The Company manages CT Legacy REIT as a liquidating portfolio.
- Adjusted Operating Results:
- CT Legacy REIT’s adjusted net loss of $14.7 million for the quarter was primarily driven by (i) $9.4 million of provisions for loan losses, (ii) a $4.4 million non-cash charge to interest expense related to discount recognition on the partial repayment of its mezzanine loan, and (iii) $1.9 million of preferred dividends. CT Legacy REIT’s cash-basis net income was $1.2 million for the quarter.

Investment Management
All of the Company’s investment management activities are conducted through its wholly-owned, investment management subsidiary, CT Investment Management Co., LLC (“CTIMCO”). CTIMCO is headquartered in New York, employs all 29 of the Company’s employees, and is operated as a taxable subsidiary of the Company. Since its inception, CTIMCO has originated over $11.8 billion of commercial real estate debt and related investments and has raised over $3.5 billion of private equity capital, as well as over $10 billion of public and private debt capital. CTIMCO currently manages in excess of $5 billion of assets including its public company parent, CT Legacy REIT, five commercial real estate CDOs, three private equity funds and one separate account. In addition, CTIMCO is an approved special servicer by all three rating agencies and is the named special servicer on $2.6 billion of loans.
- CTIMCO is currently investing CT Opportunity Partners I, a fund with $540 million of total equity commitments of which $313 million remains undrawn.
- CTIMCO manages three other funds with total original equity commitments of $1.4 billion and total investments of $1.0 billion.
- During the quarter, CTIMCO originated four new investments, $180.7 million in the aggregate, for its investment management vehicles.
Adjusted Balance Sheet and Operating Results
The consolidated financial statements of the Company include 10 consolidated securitization vehicles which are all non-recourse, as well as assets and liabilities related to loan participations sold which did not qualify as sales under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). This has resulted in a presentation of gross assets and liabilities, provisions/impairments, and operations being recorded in excess of the Company’s economic interests in such entities.
The Company’s adjusted balance sheet and operating results (i) eliminate loan participations sold, and (ii) deconsolidate securitization vehicles which are presented gross in accordance with GAAP, and show instead the Company’s cash investment in these non-recourse entities, adjusted for losses expected or incurred, and the cash income earned thereon. Due to the non-recourse nature of these entities, the Company’s investment amount as well as its income from these entities cannot be less than zero on a cash basis. In addition, non-cash interest expense recognized due to interest rate swaps no longer designated as cash flow hedges is eliminated.
Also, the adjusted balance sheet and operating results separately show the Company’s financial position and operations from those of CT Legacy REIT.
The Company’s adjusted balance sheet is not an alternative or substitute for its consolidated balance sheet prepared in accordance with GAAP as a measure of its financial position, and the Company’s adjusted operating results are not an alternative or substitute for net income reported in accordance with GAAP as a measure of the Company’s performance. Rather, the Company believes that its adjusted balance sheet and operating results provide meaningful information to consider, in addition to its consolidated balance sheet and statement of operations prepared in accordance with GAAP, because these measures help the Company evaluate its financial position and performance without the effects of certain transactions and GAAP adjustments that are not necessarily indicative of the Company’s current investment portfolio, capitalization, or shareholders’ equity.
The Company’s adjusted balance sheet should not be viewed as an alternative measure of shareholders’ equity. Similarly, adjusted earnings should not be viewed as an alternative measure of either the Company’s operating liquidity or funds available for its cash needs. In addition, the Company may not prepare its adjusted balance sheet or adjusted earnings in the same manner as other companies that use similarly titled measures.
