About The Corporation
Where Mortgage Deals Get Done®
The Corporation, through its mortgage banker, Firm Capital Corporation, is a non-bank lender providing residential and
commercial short-term bridge and conventional real estate financing, including construction, mezzanine and equity investments. The
Corporation's investment objective is the preservation of shareholders' equity, while providing shareholders with a stable stream
of monthly dividends from investments. The Corporation achieves its investment objectives through investments in selected niche
markets that are under-serviced by large lending institutions. Lending activities to date continue to develop a diversified
mortgage portfolio, producing a stable return to shareholders. The Corporation is a Mortgage Investment Corporation (MIC) as
defined in the Income Tax Act (Canada). Accordingly, The Corporation is not taxed on income
provided that its taxable income is paid to its shareholders in the form of dividends within 90 days after December 31 each year. Such dividends are generally treated by shareholders as interest income, so that each
shareholder is in the same position as if the mortgage investments made by the company had been made directly by the shareholder.
Full reports of the financial results of the Corporation for the year are outlined in the audited financial statements and the
