Greystone Housing Impact Investors Reports Third Quarter 2024 Financial Results

OMAHA, Neb., Nov. 06, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- On November 6, 2024, Greystone Housing Impact Investors LP (NYSE:GHI) (the "Partnership") announced financial results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024.

Financial Highlights

The Partnership reported the following results as of and for the three months ended September 30, 2024:

Net loss of $0.23 per Beneficial Unit Certificate ("BUC"), basic and diluted

Cash Available for Distribution ("CAD") of $0.27 per BUC

Total assets of $1.55 billion

Total Mortgage Revenue Bond ("MRB") and Governmental Issuer Loan ("GIL") investments of $1.24 billion

The difference between reported net income per BUC and CAD per BUC is primarily due to the treatment of unrealized losses on the Partnership's interest rate derivative positions. Unrealized losses of approximately $9.7 million are included in net income for the three months ended September 30, 2024. Unrealized losses are a result of the impact of declining market interest rates on the calculated fair value of the Partnership's interest rate derivative positions. Unrealized losses do not affect our cash earnings and are added back to net income when calculating the Partnership's CAD. The Partnership received net cash from its interest rate derivative positions totaling approximately $1.8 million during the third quarter.

The Partnership reported the following results for the nine months ended September 30, 2024:

Net income of $0.38 per BUC, basic and diluted

CAD of $0.77 per BUC

The difference between reported net income per BUC and CAD per BUC is primarily due to the treatment of unrealized losses on the Partnership's interest rate derivative positions. Unrealized losses of approximately $4.9 million are included in net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. Unrealized losses are a result of the impact of declining market interest rates on the calculated fair value of the Partnership's interest rate derivative positions. The Partnership received net cash from its interest rate derivative positions totaling approximately $5.2 million during the first three quarters of 2024.

In September 2024, the Partnership announced that the Board of Managers of Greystone AF Manager LLC declared a regular quarterly distribution to the Partnership's BUC holders of $0.37 per BUC. The distribution was paid on October 31, 2024, to BUC holders of record as of the close of trading on September 30, 2024.

Management Remarks

"We saw steady performance from our investment portfolio during the third quarter," said Kenneth C. Rogozinski, the Partnership's Chief Executive Officer. "The volatility in the fixed income and multifamily capital markets continues to present both challenges and opportunities. We continue to focus on executing on our core investment strategy to provide consistent returns for our unitholders."

Recent Investment and Financing Activity

The Partnership reported the following updates for the third quarter of 2024:

Advanced funds on MRB and taxable MRB investments totaling $40.5 million.

Advanced funds on GIL, taxable GIL and property loan investments totaling $17.5 million.

Advanced funds to joint venture equity investments totaling $10.4 million.

Received redemption proceeds for various MRB, GIL, property loan and taxable MRB investments totaling $55.8 million, of which $36.9 million was used to paydown the Partnership's related debt financing.

Investment Portfolio Updates

The Partnership announced the following updates regarding its investment portfolio:

All MRB and GIL investments are current on contractual principal and interest payments and the Partnership has received no requests for forbearance of contractual principal and interest payments from borrowers as of September 30, 2024.

The Partnership continues to execute its hedging strategy, primarily through interest rate swaps, to reduce the impact of changing market interest rates. The Partnership received net payments under its interest rate swap portfolio of approximately $1.8 million and $5.2 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively.

Six joint venture equity investment properties have completed construction, with four properties having achieved 90% occupancy as of September 30, 2024. Five of the Partnership's joint venture equity investments are currently under construction or in development, with none having experienced material supply chain disruptions for either construction materials or labor to date.

Similarly, statements that describe objectives, plans, or goals also are forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements involve inherent risks and uncertainties, many of which are difficult to predict and are generally beyond the control of the Partnership. The Partnership cautions readers that a number of important factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in, implied, or projected by such forward-looking statements. Risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to: defaults on the mortgage loans securing our mortgage revenue bonds and governmental issuer loans; the competitive environment in which the Partnership operates; risks associated with investing in multifamily, student, senior citizen residential properties and commercial properties; general economic, geopolitical, and financial conditions, including the current and future impact of changing interest rates, inflation, and international conflicts (including the Russia-Ukraine war and the Israel-Hamas war) on business operations, employment, and financial conditions; uncertain conditions within the domestic and international macroeconomic environment, including monetary and fiscal policy and conditions in the investment, credit, interest rate, and derivatives markets; adverse reactions in U.S. financial markets related to actions of foreign central banks or the economic performance of foreign economies, including in particular China, Japan, the European Union, and the United Kingdom; the general condition of the real estate markets in the regions in which the Partnership operates, which may be unfavorably impacted by pressures in the commercial real estate sector, incrementally higher unemployment rates, persistent elevated inflation levels, and other factors; changes in interest rates and credit spreads, as well as the success of any hedging strategies the Partnership may undertake in relation to such changes, and the effect such changes may have on the relative spreads between the yield on investments and cost of financing; the aggregate effect of elevated inflation levels over the past several years, spurred by multiple factors including expansionary monetary and fiscal policy, higher commodity prices, a tight labor market, and low residential vacancy rates, which may result in continued elevated interest rate levels and increased market volatility; the Partnership's ability to access debt and equity capital to finance its assets; current maturities of the Partnership's financing arrangements and the Partnership's ability to renew or refinance such financing arrangements; local, regional, national and international economic and credit market conditions; recapture of previously issued Low Income Housing Tax Credits in accordance with Section 42 of the Internal Revenue Code; geographic concentration of properties related to investments held by the Partnership; changes in the U.S. corporate tax code and other government regulations affecting the Partnership's business; and the other risks detailed in the Partnership's SEC filings (including but not limited to, the Partnership's Annual Report on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, and Current Reports on Form 8-K).
