Transcontinental Realty Investors, Inc. Reports Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2014 Results
DALLAS (March 30, 2015) — Transcontinental Realty Investors, Inc. (NYSE: TCI), a Dallas-based real estate investment company, today reported results of operations for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2014. For the three months ended December 31, 2014, the Company reported net income applicable to common shares of $36.8 million or $4.21 per share, as compared to net income applicable to common shares of $55.3 million or $6.57 per share for the same period ended 2013.
For the twelve months ended December 31, 2014, we reported net income applicable to common shares of $40.6 million or $4.74 per diluted earnings per share, as compared to net income applicable to common shares of $57.4 million or $6.83 per diluted earnings per share for the same period ended 2013.
The current year net income applicable to common shares of $40.6 million includes $17.4 million of depreciation expense and gains on the sale of real estate holdings of $62.4 million.
Management's efforts to enhance the value of our overall portfolio has resulted in the continuing improvement in the Company's results of operations. We continue to see growth in the multifamily market with increasing rents, stable operating expenses, and an occupancy rate over 94%. We are diligent in our mission to provide high-quality living opportunities to our tenants.
In our commercial portfolio, we are seeing the benefit of our efforts with new leases executed and increasing rents as first year concessions expire. We believe that we will continue to see growth in our commercial portfolio as the economic conditions improve and we capitalize on the influx of attractive prospects in the pipeline.
Our ability to take advantage of lower-interest rate mortgages available has reduced our monthly obligations and increased cash flow within our multifamily portfolio.
The positive results of operations has allowed the Company to invest in mortgage receivables in various multifamily projects not under the Company's ownership. We will continue to invest in the multifamily market, as conditions are optimal for achieving a high return on our investment.
In the current period, rental and other property revenues increased within the apartment portfolio by $2.4 million mainly due to increased rental rates and high occupancy. The commercial portfolio decreased by $3.8 million primarily due to a lease termination fee that was received in the prior year.
Property operating expenses were $39.5 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2014, representing an increase of $2.8 million as compared to the same period in the previous year. Operating expenses have remained consistent with prior periods due to labor efficiencies and improvements in preventative maintenance across the portfolio, with only an increase in real estate taxes as a result of the increase in the value of our portfolio and some non-recurring repair projects completed in the current year.
Litigation settlement expense was a credit of $3.6 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2014, representing a decrease of $23.9 million as compared to the same period in the previous year. The majority ofthe credit to the current year litigation expense was due to a settlement with the lender relating to one of the commercial properties in which the balance in the amount of $3.5 million was forgiven. Matters were settled in the prior year in order to avoid future litigation and legal expenses.
