IMH Financial Corporation Third Quarter Results Adjusted EBITDA $4.7 million up 340% over 2013 First quarterly operating profit in 6 years, excluding one-time charges
SCOTTSDALE, Ariz., Nov. 25, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- IMH Financial Corporation ("IMH" or "the Company") announced today that it filed its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended September 30, 2014 with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 14, 2014. The Company reported its first quarterly adjusted EBITDA of $4.7 million or $0.31 per common share, excluding one-time charges, compared to $(2.0) million loss and $(0.12) loss per share for the same period in 2013.
Lawrence Bain, CEO and Chairman of IMH, said, "After adjustment for certain one-time charges resulting from our debt restructuring and management changes, we have achieved our third straight quarter of positive EBITDA as well as our first quarter of positive earnings in the past six years from operations, including sales of current assets. Changes in our capital structure that began this quarter and are expected to be completed late this year or early next year should position us well for future earnings. We believe our portfolio of assets is favorably positioned and as sold, or developed, will serve as a basis for our future investment activities." Mr. Bain continued, "Our improved financial performance is the result of recent changes at the Company and more favorable market conditions."
Following are financial and operational highlights for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2014:
Three-Month Summary Results
- Top line revenue (the sum of operating property revenue, investment and other income, and mortgage loan income) increased by 19%, to $8.0 million, for the three months ended September 30, 2014, as compared to $6.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2013. Top line revenue growth was primarily due to increases in mortgage income on the legacy loan portfolio.
- The Company recorded gains from the disposal of assets of $5.6 million during the three months ended September 30, 2014, as compared to gains from the disposal of assets of $0.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2013. During the quarter ended September 30, 2014, assets with a total basis of $13.8 million were sold at a 38.7% net return on basis.
- Adjusted EBITDA was $4.7 million, a $6.7 million improvement over the $2.0 million adjusted EBITDA loss for the same period in 2013, excluding a one-time debt termination charge of $21.7 million and other related one-time charges of $1.5 million related to management changes which are included in general and administrative expenses for the third quarter of 2014. Adjusted EBITDA per common share was $0.31 for the third quarter of 2014 compared to a $(0.12) loss for the same period in 2013. The increase in adjusted EBITDA is primarily due to the gain on the disposal of assets.
- Adjusted net earnings for the quarter ending September 30, 2014 was $0.5 million compared to $8.2 million loss for the same period in 2013, excluding the one-time debt termination charge of $21.7 million and other related charges of $1.5 million for the quarter. Adjusted net earnings per common share was $0.03 for the third quarter of 2014 and a $(0.49) loss for the same period in 2013. The increase in adjusted net earnings is due to the reasons explained above.
- Net loss attributable to common shareholders for the three months ended September 30, 2014 was $23.4 million compared to an $8.2 million loss attributable to common shareholders for the same period in 2013. Net loss per common share for the three months ended September 30, 2014 was $(1.53) compared to $(0.49) for the three months ended September 30, 2013. The net loss is primarily due to the restructuring and other one-time charges taken during the quarter ended September 30, 2014.
Nine-Month Summary Results
- For the nine months ended September 30, 2014, top line revenue was $23.5 million from $13.7 million for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2013, an increase of 72%, or $9.8 million. The increase in revenues is primarily due to improved results at the Company's hospitality operating assets. The Company acquired the Sedona Arizona hospitality operations effective May 15, 2013.
- During the nine months ended September 30, 2014, the Company recorded gains of $17.6 million from the disposal of assets compared to gains of $1.0 million on asset disposals for the same nine-month period last year. During the nine months ended September 30, 2014, assets with a basis of $49.9 million were sold at a 32.1% net return on basis.
- Adjusted EBITDA for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 was $11.9 million, an improvement of over twenty fold over $0.5 million for the corresponding period in 2013, excluding a one-time debt termination charge of $21.7 million and other related charges of $1.5 million. Adjusted EBITDA per common share was $0.74 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2014 and $0.03 for the same period in 2013. The increase in adjusted EBITDA is primarily due to improved results of the Company's operating assets and asset sales.
- Adjusted net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 was $4.0 million compared to a net loss of $15.5 million for the same period in 2013, excluding a one-time debt termination charge of $21.7 million and other related charges of $1.5 million. Adjusted net loss per common share was $(0.25) for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2014 and $(0.92) for the same period in 2013. The net loss for the nine months is primarily due to high interest costs.
- Net loss attributable to common shareholders for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 was $27.9 million, a 75% increase from the net loss of $15.5 million for the nine month period ended September 30, 2013. Net loss per common share was $(1.74) for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2014 and $(0.92) for the same period in 2013. The net loss was primarily driven by high interest costs and one-time charges.
- Total assets were $199.5 million as of September 30, 2014 compared to $237.4 million as of December 31, 2013.
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information
Adjusted EBIDTA and adjusted net earnings (loss) are considered "non-GAAP financial measures" under SEC guidelines. The Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide a more complete understanding of ongoing operations and enhance comparability of current results to prior periods. The Company also believes that providing investors with this non-GAAP financial information, in addition to the related GAAP measures, gives investors greater transparency to the information used by management in its financial and operational decision-making. However, because under SEC guidelines these non-GAAP financial measures are considered an incomplete measure of the Company's financial performance and involves differences from net earnings (loss) computed in accordance with GAAP, it should be considered along with, and not as an alternative to, the Company's net loss computed in accordance with GAAP as a measure of the Company's financial performance.
