A summary of Sutherland's operating results for the quarter ended June 30, 2017 is presented below. Sutherland reported U.S. GAAP net income for the three months ended June 30, 2017 of $11.2 million, or $0.34 per share of common stock, and Core Earnings (a non-GAAP financial measure) of $11.2 million, or $0.34 per share of common stock.
The Company issued a full detailed presentation of its second quarter 2017 results, which can be viewed in the investor relations section at www.sutherlandam.com.
Thomas Capasse, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer commented, "During the second quarter we made great strides as the team's efforts led to a 42% increase in small balance commercial loan originations and a 17% sequential increase in quarterly earnings. We continue to strategically pursue opportunities to grow the platform and drive shareholder value. With two securitizations completed during the past week and the positive results from the execution of a second tranche on our Term Note, Sutherland continues to move down the path necessary to expand ROE in future quarters while raising funds accretively."
Common Dividends
During the second quarter of 2017, the Company's Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.37 per share of common stock and operating partnership unit ("OP unit") in its operating partnership subsidiary for the quarter ended June 30, 2017 to common stockholders and OP unit holders of record as of June 30, 2017. The dividend was paid on July 31, 2017.
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information
In addition to the results presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("U.S. GAAP"), this press release includes Core Earnings which is a non-U.S. GAAP financial measure. The Company defines Core Earnings as net income adjusted for unrealized or realized gains (losses) related to mortgage backed securities, unrealized gains (losses) related to residential mortgage servicing rights, and one-time non-recurring gains or losses, such as gains or losses on discontinued operations, bargain purchase gains or merger related expenses.
The Company believes that providing investors with this non-U.S. GAAP financial information, in addition to the related U.S. GAAP measures, gives investors greater transparency into the information used by management in its financial and operational decision-making. However, because Core Earnings is an incomplete measure of the Company's financial performance and involves differences from net income computed in accordance with U.S. GAAP, it should be considered along with, but not as an alternative to, the Company's net income computed in accordance with U.S. GAAP as a measure of the Company's financial performance. In addition, because not all companies use identical calculations, the Company's presentation of Core Earnings may not be comparable to other similarly-titled measures of other companies.
The following table reconciles net income computed in accordance with U.S. GAAP to Core Earnings for the three months ended June 30, 2017:
