NEW YORK, May 9, 2017
NEW YORK, May 9, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Sutherland Asset Management Corporation ("Sutherland" or the "Company") (NYSE: SLD) today reported financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2017.
First Quarter Highlights:
Highlight Subsequent to Quarter End
A summary of Sutherland's operating results for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 is presented below. Sutherland reported U.S. GAAP net income for the three months ended March 31, 2017 of $9.6 million, or $0.29 per share of common stock, and Core Earnings (a non-GAAP financial measure) of $10.9 million, or $0.33 per share of common stock.
The Company issued a full detailed presentation of its first quarter 2017 results, which can be viewed in the investor relations section at www.sutherlandam.com.
Thomas Capasse, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer commented, "Sutherland continues its efforts to accelerate its pace of originations reaching approximately $640 million in our first quarter. While we would have preferred to produce stronger results in the quarter, we are still overcoming the drag on the cash on our balance sheet, which should dissipate in the coming quarters. With a robust pipeline across our core businesses, SBA, SBC and Residential, along with our proven securitization capabilities, Sutherland is positioned to build on our history of success and to grow our platform in efforts to build value for our shareholders."
Common Dividends
During the first 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 March 31, 2017 to common stockholders and OP unit holders of record as of March 31, 2017. The dividend was paid on April 13, 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, losses on discontinued operations and non-recurring 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 March 31, 2017:
