BRT REALTY TRUST
REPORTS FOURTH QUARTER AND
FULL YEAR 2011 RESULTS
GREAT NECK, New York – December 12, 2011 – BRT REALTY TRUST (NYSE:BRT) a real estate investment trust primarily engaged in the business of originating and holding for investment senior mortgage loans secured by commercial and multi-family real estate in the United States, today announced its results of operations for the quarter and year ended September 30, 2011.
Jeffrey A. Gould, President and Chief Executive Officer of BRT commented that: “During fiscal 2011, we resolved all our remaining problem loans, increased our loan origination activities and at fiscal year-end, all our loans are earning. As a result, we are reporting positive results for the year ended September 30, 2011, after reporting losses in each of the two prior fiscal years.”
Results for the Three Months Ended September 30, 2011:
Total revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2011 increased 133% to $4.4 million compared to total revenues of $1.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2010. Total revenues increased due to increased interest on real estate loans and loan fee income.
Total expenses for the current three months declined 5% to $3.1 million compared to total expenses of $3.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2010. Total expenses decreased primarily as a result of a decline in foreclosure related expenses due to the resolution of the remaining problem loans.
Net income attributable to common shareholders increased by $3.1 million to $1.9 million or $.13 per share from a net loss attributable to common shareholders of $1.2 million or $(.08) per share.
Full Year 2011 Operating Results:
For fiscal 2011, BRT’s total revenues rose to $17.9 million or 120% over fiscal 2010, due to increased interest on real estate loans, increased loan fee income and a recovery of previously provided allowances.
BRT’s total expenses decreased to $13.8 million or 30.3% from fiscal 2010 due to the inclusion in fiscal 2010 of a provision for loan loss and impairment charges in the aggregate amount of $5.8 million.
Net income attributable to common shareholders increased by $14.4 million, to $6.4 million or $0.45 per diluted share from a net loss attributable to common shareholders of $8 million or $(0.58) per diluted share.
