MMA Capital Management Announces Second Quarter 2017 Financial Results and Investor Conference Call

BALTIMORE, Aug. 9, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- MMA Capital Management, LLC (NASDAQ: MMAC) ("MMA Capital" or "the Company") today reported financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2017, including common shareholders' equity of $127.5 million, or $21.69 per share of diluted common shareholders' equity ("Book Value").  The Company filed its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2017 (the "Second Quarter 2017 Report") with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") earlier today and will hold an investor call on Thursday, August 10, 2017 at 8:30 a.m. EDT.

Common shareholders' equity increased from $120.3 million at March 31, 2017 to $127.5 million at June 30, 2017.  This change was driven by $8.2 million in comprehensive income that is allocable to common shareholders that was partially offset by $1.0 million in other reductions in common shareholders' equity that were primarily driven by the repurchase of the Company's common shares.  Book Value per share increased to $21.69 at June 30, 2017, which represents an increase of $1.37 per share of Book Value compared to what we reported at March 31, 2017.  This increase was primarily attributable to net income from operations, which includes a $3.8 million extinguishment gain  from our discounted purchase of subordinated debt and $3.9 million of asset management fees from our tax credit investment venture. We recognized comprehensive income that is allocable to common shareholders of $8.2 million in the second quarter of 2017, which consisted of $7.4 million of net income that is allocable to common shareholders and $0.8 million of other comprehensive income that is allocable to common shareholders.  In comparison, we recognized $5.4 million of comprehensive income that is allocable to common shareholders in the second quarter of 2016, which consisted of $5.1 million of net income that is allocable to common shareholders and $0.3 million of other comprehensive income that is allocable to common shareholders.

Michael Falcone, MMA Capital's Chief Executive Officer stated, "We had a very active second quarter with a number of realization events in our LIHTC management and leveraged bond business lines. Our project-based solar lending business continues to be a source of growth and the impact of the loan loss realized in the prior two quarters has been offset by the progress across our business.  Our asset management efforts, combined with good market conditions, have contributed to our success so far this year, and we hope to see further success from our disposition efforts as the year unfolds.   

"We also executed on our capital allocation strategies, including our stock buyback plan and the retirement of debt at a substantial discount during the quarter. For the quarter, we bought back approximately 42,000 shares at an average price of $23.29 and retired approximately $20 million of debt resulting in a $3.8 million gain.  Lastly, as a function of the reported Book Value, the maximum price at which we may buy back stock will adjust to $24.94 and that price will remain in effect until our next quarterly filing."
