Gary Mentesana, MMA Capital's Interim Chief Executive Officer stated, "The third quarter was substantially focused on our renewable energy investment portfolio.  In that regard, we were able to largely execute our plan and realized an unlevered net return on investment from our renewable energy investments, as measured on a twelve-month trailing basis, of 11.1% through September 30, 2020.  Given the impact of COVID-19, we are pleased with these results and the relatively clean reporting quarter they represent.  Still, due to the current economic climate we continue to assess and manage the impact the pandemic has had and may have on our business.  As a result, we continue to focus on managing liquidity and utilizing a more conservative approach to portfolio management in these uncertain times."

Chief Executive Officer Update

The Company's external manager is engaged in the process of selecting a permanent Chief Executive Officer for the Board's consideration and approval. We expect this process to conclude in the near future and to make an announcement at the appropriate time. We believe that we have appropriate management and leadership in place at this time given the external manager's resources and with Gary Mentesana as Interim Chief Executive Officer.

Audit Committee Chair

The Board is pleased to announce that Lisa Kay, a board member for the past 3 years and previously to that the Chief Financial Officer of the Company, has been elected to chair the Company's Audit Committee, effective with the filing of the Quarterly Report.  The Board has determined Ms. Kay meets all of the independence requirements of both Nasdaq and the Company's guidelines and therefore will join each of the committees of the Board, in addition to Chair of the Audit Committee.  Francis Gallagher, Jr., Chairperson of the MMA Capital Board, stated "Lisa has been an invaluable resource for the Company for many years and with her strong background in audit matters and deep knowledge of the Company, she will bring that talent and presence to lead our Audit Committee.  We also want to thank outgoing Chairperson Fred Puddester for his continuing efforts with the Board and the strong leadership he brought to the committee following Steven Bloom's retirement."  Mr. Puddester will continue to be a member of the Audit Committee, as well as remaining Chairperson of the Compensation Committee.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In this press release, the Company presents its financial condition and results of operations in the way it believes will be most meaningful and representative of its business results. Some of the measurements the Company uses are "non-GAAP financial measures" under Securities and Exchange Commission rules and regulations. We present certain non-GAAP financial measures that supplement the financial measures we disclose that are calculated under GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures are those that include or exclude certain items that are otherwise excluded or included, respectively, from the most directly comparable measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. The non-GAAP financial measures that we disclose are not intended as a substitute for GAAP financial measures and may not be defined or calculated the same way as similar non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies.  The reconciliations of such measures to the most comparable GAAP measures in accordance with Regulation G are included in Table 1 below.

Adjusted Book Value represents Book Value reduced by the carrying value of the Company's DTAs. We believe this measure is useful to investors in assessing the Company's underlying fundamental performance and trends in our business because it eliminates potential volatility in results brought on by tax considerations in a given year. As a result, reporting upon, and measuring changes in, Adjusted Book Value enables for a better comparison of period-to-period operating performance.

Adjusted Book Value per common share represents Adjusted Book Value at the period end divided by the common shares outstanding at the period end.

Management intends to continually evaluate the usefulness, relevance, limitations and calculations of our reported non-GAAP performance measures to determine how best to provide relevant information to the public.

Table 1 provides reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures that are included in this press release to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.

Table 1:  Non-GAAP Reconciliations

* The Company defines Adjusted Book Value as Book Value excluding the carrying value of the Company's deferred tax assets ("DTAs").  Adjusted Book Value is a financial measure not calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("non-GAAP"); reconciliations to their closest GAAP measures and the rationale for their use in analyzing our financial results can be found in this press release under the heading "Non-GAAP Financial Measures."
