MMA Capital Holdings Announces 2020 First Quarter Results

BALTIMORE, May 11, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- MMA Capital Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: MMAC) ("MMA Capital" or the "Company") today reported financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2020, including common shareholders' equity ("Book Value") of $277.7 million, or $47.82 per share.  The Company filed its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2020 (the "Quarterly Report"), with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") today and will host an investor call at 4:30 p.m. ET tomorrow, Tuesday, May 12, 2020. 

Key results from the quarter include:

• Book Value decreased $3.5 million to $277.7 million
• Book Value per share decreased $0.61, or 1.3%, to $47.82 per share
• Adjusted Book Value* decreased $5.1 million to $218.3 million
• Adjusted Book Value* per share decreased $0.90, or 2.3%, to $37.59
• Comprehensive loss of $3.5 million was recognized, which consisted of $3.1 million of net loss and $0.4 million of other comprehensive loss
• Net loss from continuing operations before income taxes of $4.2 million, or $0.73 per share, was recognized, which was primarily driven by $5.7 million of net fair value losses related to the Company's derivative instruments and interests in loans held through our renewable energy joint ventures

Michael Falcone, MMA Capital's Chief Executive Officer stated, "The first quarter was challenging for the Company due to the general market disruptions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.  The primary impacts on the Company stemmed from widening credit spreads and decreases in benchmark interest rates, which resulted in unrealized mark-to-market losses on bond investments, derivative instruments and certain loans in which the Company has invested.  With that said, as of today, no loss of principal has occurred on loans at the solar ventures and we believe that, over time, those unrealized loan losses should reverse.  Given the current economic climate, the Company is focusing on managing its liquidity including at its joint venture entities.  We will continue to monitor how the COVID-19 disruptions are impacting the broader economy and how those broader economic impacts might affect us, but we cannot yet predict any impact beyond the near-term at this point."

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.
