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, 2013. For the three months ended
December 31, 2013, the Company reported net income applicable to common
shares of $55.3 million or $6.57 per share, as compared to a net loss
applicable to common shares of $6.4 million or $0.76 per share for the
same period ended 2012.
For the twelve months ended December 31, 2013, we reported net income
applicable to common shares of $57.4 million or $6.82 per diluted
earnings per share, as compared to a net loss applicable to common
shares of $9.4 million or $1.12 per diluted earnings per share for the
same period ended 2012.
The current year net income applicable to common shares of $57.4 million
includes $17.2 million of depreciation expense, $11.3 million of
provisions on the impairment of notes receivable and real estate assets,
$20.3 million of litigation settlement expense and gains on the sale of
real estate holdings of $96.3 million.
The Company’s commitment to first stabilizing, then enhancing value to
our real estate portfolios has proven successful evidenced by our
improved results of our operations. During the current year, we have
realized the benefits of streamlined operations and the completion of
several high-value asset sales thus improving cash flows on our existing
portfolio.
Our apartment portfolio continues to excel in the current economic
conditions with occupancies averaging over 95% and increasing rental
rates. We have been able to surpass expectations due to the high-quality
product offered, strength of our management team and our commitment to
our tenants.
Our commercial portfolio expects to continue to improve as the Company
has been diligent in our actions to re-lease vacant space and has been
successful in attracting high-quality tenants and expects to see the
benefits of those new leases over the next twelve months. We continue to
work aggressively to attract new tenants and strive for continuous
improvement of our properties in order to maintain our existing tenants.
In the current period, rental and other property revenues increased
within the apartment portfolio by $3.5 million due primarily to
increased rental rates and occupancy. Within the commercial portfolio
the same properties decreased by $3.9 million related to some larger
square-foot tenants down-sizing or moving out and first year lease
specials for new tenants. The Company expects the apartment and
commercial portfolios to continue to improve and expects future growth
in excess of the current period results.
Interest income was $13.8 million for the twelve months ended December
31, 2013 as compared to the prior period interest income of $11.7
million, due to an agreement made on January 1, 2013, whereby the
Company extended the maturity on the surplus cash flow notes receivable
from Unified Housing Foundation, Inc. for an additional term of five
years in exchange for an early termination of the preferred interest
rate.
Other income was $7.9 million for the twelve months ended December 31,
2013 due to the Mercer/Travelers land note payoff. Per the terms of the
agreement, the note was paid off at a discounted rate and $7.5 million
was recognized as a gain.
Mortgage and loan interest expense decreased by $4.6 million, as
compared to the prior year expense primarily due to interest rate
savings on refinances for our apartment portfolio. The current year
refinances resulted in annual interest rate savings of $3.7 million.
Litigation settlement expense relates to guarantor settlements on
various real estate assets that were foreclosed upon in prior years. In
order to avoid future litigation and legal expenses, we settled and are
making payment plans on the agreed upon deficiencies.
