America First Multifamily Investors, L.P. Announces First Quarter 2022 Financial Results
Omaha, Nebraska – On May 5, 2022, America First Multifamily Investors, L.P. (NASDAQ: ATAX) (the “Partnership” or “ATAX”) announced its financial results for the three months ended March 31, 2022.
On April 1, 2022, the Partnership effected the previously announced one-for-three reverse unit split (“Reverse Unit Split”) of its outstanding Beneficial Unit Certificates (“BUCs”). As a result of the Reverse Unit Split, holders of BUCs received one BUC for every three BUCs owned at the close of business on April 1, 2022. The one-for-three Reverse Unit Split has been applied retroactively to all net income per BUC, distributions per BUC and similar per BUC disclosures for all periods presented in this release.
Financial Highlights
As of and for the three months ended March 31, 2022:
The Partnership reported the following notable transactions during the first quarter of 2022:
In April 2022, the Partnership committed to fund four MRB investments of up to $59.0 million and a taxable MRB of up to $13.0 million for a to-be-constructed affordable multifamily property in Hollywood, California. The Partnership initially advanced $16.5 million of its MRB commitment and $1.0 million of its taxable MRB commitment at closing, with the remaining commitments to be funded during construction.
In April 2022, the Partnership issued 2,000,000 of Series A-1 Preferred Units with an aggregate stated value of $20,000,000 in exchange for 2,000,000 outstanding Series A Preferred Units held by a financial institution. There were no net proceeds to the Partnership as a result of the exchange transaction. Except in certain limited circumstances, the newly issued Series A-1 Preferred Units will be eligible for redemption on the sixth anniversary of the date of the exchange in April 2028.
Investment Updates and Management Remarks
The Partnership announced the following updates regarding its investment portfolio:
“Despite recent volatility in interest rates, we continue to strategically invest in our affordable multifamily and joint venture equity asset classes where we believe we can earn attractive leveraged returns,” said Ken Rogozinski, the Partnership’s Chief Executive Officer. “The successful sale of Vantage at Murfreesboro continues the series of significant returns on our Vantage joint venture equity investments. The pace of stabilization of completed Vantage properties is very encouraging for this segment of our business.”
“We also opportunistically executed on new interest rate hedges to offset the risk associated with our floating rate financing costs. Finally, we believe the Reverse Unit Split, which had no monetary impact on our unitholders, will help the Partnership continue to grow and will be a net benefit to our unitholders by expanding the universe of potential investors and enhancing the ability of unitholders to purchase or hold BUCs through margin accounts,” said Rogozinski.
Disclosure Regarding Non-GAAP Measures
This report refers to Cash Available for Distribution (“CAD”), which is identified as a non-GAAP financial measure. We believe CAD provides relevant information about our operations and is necessary, along with net income, for understanding our operating results. Net income is the GAAP measure most comparable to CAD. There is no generally accepted methodology for computing CAD, and our computation of CAD may not be comparable to CAD reported by other companies. Although we consider CAD to be a useful measure of our operating performance, CAD is a non-GAAP measure and should not be considered as an alternative to net income that is calculated in accordance with GAAP, or any other measures of financial performance presented in accordance with GAAP. See the table at the end of this press release for a reconciliation of our net income as determined in accordance with GAAP and our CAD for the periods set forth.
Earnings Webcast & Conference Call
The Partnership will host a Webcast & Earnings Call for Unitholders on Thursday, May 5th at 4:30 p.m. Eastern Time to discuss the Partnership’s First Quarter 2022 results. Participants can access the First Quarter 2022 Earnings Conference Call in one of two ways:
Following completion of the earnings call, a recorded replay will be available on the Partnership’s Investor Relations website at www.ataxfund.com.
About America First Multifamily Investors, L.P.
America First Multifamily Investors, L.P. was formed on April 2, 1998 under the Delaware Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Act for the primary purpose of acquiring, holding, selling and otherwise dealing with a portfolio of mortgage revenue bonds which have been issued to provide construction and/or permanent financing for affordable multifamily, student housing and commercial properties.
