Broadmark Realty Capital Announces First Quarter 2022 Results

- Completes New Originations and Amendments of $189.6 Million -

- Total Active Loan Portfolio of $1.6 Billion Across 20 States -

Broadmark Realty Capital Inc. (NYSE: BRMK) (the “Company”), an internally managed secured real estate finance company, today announced operating results for the quarter ended March 31, 2022.

Brian Ward, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, commented, “In the first quarter, we completed total originations that approached $190 million, at an average unlevered yield in excess of 10.0%. While the broader commercial real estate lending markets remain fiercely competitive, we continue to be selective with our investments as global, macro-economic risks escalate. Specifically, we are pursuing prudent, high-yield investments in the smaller- to middle-market space that we expect will generate strong returns for our shareholders as we move ahead. We also remain well-positioned with our balance sheet at an enterprise leverage ratio of roughly 8%, which allows us to take advantage of future opportunities that may arise. As such, rising rates do not materially impact our balance sheet, and our shorter-duration loans operate as a natural hedge against rapid rate movements. Our fortress balance sheet offers a material difference and our balanced approach to risk and return, together with significant financial capacity, puts us in an ideal position for future growth through all parts of the cycle.”

First Quarter 2022 Financial and Loan Portfolio Highlights

  • Total revenue of $29.9 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2022, comprised of interest income of $24.1 million and fee income of $5.8 million.
  • Net income attributable to common stockholders of $18.1 million, or $0.14 per diluted common share.
  • Distributable earnings prior to realized loss on investments, a non-GAAP financial measure, of $22.1 million, or $0.17 per diluted common share.
  • New originations and amendments of $189.6 million, at a weighted average loan-to-value of 61.8%.

Balance Sheet Activity and Liquidity

At March 31, 2022, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $97.4 million and a fully undrawn $135.0 million credit facility, or $232.4 million in total liquidity, with $591.9 million of unfunded loan commitments on balance sheet.

  • increased competition from entities engaged in construction lending activities;
  • availability of origination and acquisition opportunities acceptable to the Company;
  • potential mismatches in the timing of asset repayments and the maturity of the associated financing agreements;
  • disruptions in the Company's business operations, including construction lending activity, relating to the COVID-19 pandemic;
  • the current and future health and stability of the economy and residential housing market, including potential impacts on the real estate markets as a result of COVID-19;
  • general economic uncertainty and the effect of general economic conditions on the real estate and real estate capital markets in particular;
  • general and local commercial and residential real estate property conditions;
  • changes in U.S. federal government policies;

  • changes in personnel and availability of qualified personnel; and
  • other factors set forth in the Company's periodic filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should any of the assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary in material respects from those projected in these forward-looking statements.

BROADMARK REALTY CAPITAL INC.

RECONCILIATION OF NET INCOME TO DISTRIBUTABLE EARNINGS

(in thousands, except for per share amounts, unaudited)

Definition of Distributable Earnings

The Company has elected to present “distributable earnings” and “distributable earnings prior to realized loss on investments”, supplemental non-GAAP financial measures used by management to evaluate the Company’s operating performance. The Company defines distributable earnings as net income attributable to common stockholders adjusted for: (i) impairment recorded on the Company’s investments; (ii) unrealized gains or losses on the Company’s investments (including provision for credit losses) and warrant liabilities; (iii) new public company transition expenses; (iv) non-capitalized transaction-related and other one-time expenses; (v) non-cash stock-based compensation; (vi) depreciation and amortization including amortization of the Company’s intangible assets; and (vii) deferred taxes, which are subject to variability and generally not indicative of future economic performance or representative of current operations.

During the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, provision for credit losses, net was $1.7 and $2.7 million, respectively, which has been excluded from distributable earnings consistent with other unrealized gains (losses) pursuant to the Company’s policy for reporting distributable earnings. The Company expects to recognize such potential credit losses in distributable earnings if and when such amounts are deemed nonrecoverable upon a realization event. This is generally upon charge-off of principal at the time of loan repayment or upon sale of real property owned by the Company and the amount of proceeds is less than the principal outstanding at the time of foreclosure.

Management believes that the adjustments to compute “distributable earnings” specified above allow investors and analysts to readily identify and track the operating performance of the Company’s assets, assist in comparing the operating results between periods, and enable investors to evaluate the Company’s current performance using the same measure that management uses to operate the business. Distributable earnings excludes certain recurring items, such as unrealized gains and losses (including provision for credit losses) and non-capitalized transaction-related expenses, because they are not considered by management to be part of the Company’s primary operations for the reasons described herein. However, management has elected to also present distributable earnings prior to realized loss on investments because it believes the Company’s investors use such measure to evaluate and compare the performance of the Company and its peers. As such, distributable earnings and distributable earnings prior to realized loss on investments are not intended to reflect all of the Company’s activity and should be considered as only one of the factors used by management in assessing the Company’s performance, along with GAAP net income which is inclusive of all of the Company’s activities.

As a REIT, the Company is required to distribute at least 90% of its annual REIT taxable income and to pay tax at regular corporate rates to the extent that it annually distributes less than 100% of such taxable income. Given these requirements and its belief that dividends are generally one of the principal reasons stockholders invest in its common stock, the Company generally intends to attempt to pay dividends to its stockholders in an amount equal to its net taxable income, if and to the extent authorized by the Company’s board of directors. Distributable earnings and distributable earnings prior to realized loss on investments are one of many factors considered by the Company’s board of directors in declaring dividends and, while not direct measures of taxable income, over time, the measures can be considered useful indicators of the Company’s dividends.

Distributable earnings and distributable earnings prior to realized loss on investments do not represent, and should not be considered as a substitute for, or superior to, net income or as a substitute for, or superior to, cash flows from operating activities, each as determined in accordance with GAAP, and the Company’s calculation of these measures may not be comparable to similarly entitled measures reported by other companies.

The table below is a reconciliation of distributable earnings to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure:
