Change in Segments
Current report
During the first quarter of fiscal 2026, the Company realigned the information that the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) regularly reviews to evaluate performance for operating decision-making purposes, including performance assessment and allocation of resources. As a result of this change in segment reporting, the Company retrospectively recast prior period results, by segment, to conform to the current period presentation. This structure includes two reportable segments: Alternative Credit and Real Estate. The structure is based on the Company’s various investment strategies.
Current report
As a result of the change noted above, effective for the quarter ended September 30, 2025, the Company began reporting the following business segments:
Current report
Alternative Credit - focused on income generation and capital preservation through investment in debt and income-generating securities, direct lending, CLOs, and specialty finance businesses including Factoring, Asset Based Lending and Healthcare
Current report
The Company has a corporate office that is included in “Corporate & Other”. The corporate office supports the segments by providing infrastructure and administrative support in the areas of accounting/finance, operations, information technology, legal, compliance and human resources.
Current report
Revenues and cost of revenues for the year ended June 30, 2026 increased $11.5 million and $12.2 million, respectively, as compared to the year ended June 30, 2025, primarily due to an increase in Real Estate property sales revenues and related cost of revenues due to September 2025 and June 2026 property sales. The increase in revenues were partially offset by a reduction in incentive fees of $4.1 million and an increase in project management fees of $1.3 million compared to the prior year period.
Current report
Compensation and benefits expenses for the year ended June 30, 2026 increased $4.1 million as compared to the corresponding prior year period primarily driven by increased personnel due to the Greenfield Acquisition. Selling, general and administrative expenses for the year ended June 30, 2026 increased $1.0 million as compared to the corresponding prior year period, which was mainly attributable to an increase in accounting and tax consulting fees, along with an increase in selling, general and administrative expenses due to the Greenfield Acquisition.

For the year ended June 30, 2026, interest income decreased $0.6 million as compared to the corresponding prior year period, due to changes in the investment portfolio shifting away from interest earning marketable securities into other strategic private investments.

Net cash from operating activities increased $24.7 million, from net cash used of $9.0 million for the year ended June 30, 2025 to net cash provided of $15.7 million for the year ended June 30, 2026, driven by proceeds from sale of real estate in September 2025 and June 2026 and changes in operating assets and liabilities period-over-period.

Continuing Operations
Previous report
Revenues and cost of revenues for the year ended June 30, 2025 decreased $1.5 million and $4.4 million, respectively, as compared to the prior year. The decreases were primarily due to a decrease in real estate property sales and related cost of revenue from those sales, as there was only $1.2 million of real estate property sales in the current year, offset by $1.1 million of related costs of revenue, compared to $6.6 million of real estate sales and $5.5 million of related cost of revenues in the prior year, due to the majority of revenue being earned on MBTS' June 2024 asset sale in the prior year and a similar transaction not occurring in the current year. The decrease in revenue was offset by a $2.6 million increase in management and incentive fees from GECC as a result of increases in assets under management from the prior year period. Additionally, $0.9 million of project management fee revenue was recognized from our newly acquired construction business in the current year period, whereas the business was not around in the prior year period.
Previous report
Operating costs and expenses for the year ended June 30, 2025 increased $3.1 million, as compared to the prior year. Investment management expenses increased $3.4 million, primarily driven by increased personnel costs due to the Greenfield Acquisition, along with changes to our personnel cost allocations by entity related to increased activity at certain entities which caused increased personnel allocation to investment management entities as opposed to other selling, general and administrative expense entities. Additionally, a $0.5 million reduction in expense related to contingent consideration was recognized in the prior year period which is not applicable in the current year period investment management expenses. Non-cash compensation increased $0.3 million, as compared to the prior year, primarily due to a large amount of shares awarded and vested in the current year compared to prior year. Depreciation and amortization increased $0.1 million, as compared to the prior year, primarily due to depreciation related to construction completion and a related lease commencing on a building during the current year which was still construction in process in the prior year, along with increased depreciation on office furniture due to acquiring a new office space during the current year. Other selling, general and administrative expenses decreased $0.7 million, which was mainly attributable to a decrease in personnel costs allocated to the business entities related to other selling, general and administrative, as mentioned previously, along with a decrease in tax consulting expense, primarily driven by prior year including expenses related to previous years and entities which are no longer around in the current year.

Discontinued Operations
Previous report
During the year ended June 30, 2023, the Company sold its DME business and the related activity qualified for presentation as discontinued operations. There was no activity related to discontinued operations during the year ended June 30, 2025. There was $0.02 million of net income related to discontinued operations during the year ended June 30, 2024.
Previous report
Cash flows used in operating activities of our continuing operations for the year ended June 30, 2025 were $9.0 million. The adjustments to reconcile our net income from continuing operations of $15.6 million to net cash used in operating activities included various non-cash charges, such as $2.0 million of stock-based compensation expense, $2.2 million of non-cash interest and amortization of capitalized issuance costs, and $1.2 million of depreciation and amortization, which all remained substantially consistent with prior year inflows. These were offset by a $16.0 million unrealized gain on investments which was primarily driven by a $11.5 million gain on our investment in a private fund as its announcement of a public offering drove up the price significantly, and an additional $4.7 million of gains in our special purpose vehicles due to a change in valuation technique during the year. Additionally, the cash inflows were offset by a net negative change in our operating assets and liabilities of $14.5 million, which was driven by an increase in receivables from managed funds due to additional receivables related to our newly acquired business which was not present in the prior year, along with different timing of reimbursements in the current year compared to the prior year. Offsetting this was a decrease in purchases of investments by our consolidated fund compared to prior year due to heightened purchasing activity in the prior year by the consolidated fund, which was established during fiscal year 2024 and ramped up activity throughout the year. The consolidated fund had increased cash flows from principal payments in the current year compared to prior year due to it now being an established fund.
Previous report
Cash flows used in operating activities of our continuing operations for the year ended June 30, 2024 were $15.6 million. The adjustments to reconcile our net loss from continuing operations of $0.9 million to net cash used in operating activities included add-backs for net proceeds from sale of real estate of $6.2 million and for various non-cash charges, such as $2.4 million of stock-based compensation expense, $2.4 million of non-cash interest and amortization of capitalized issuance costs, and $1.1 million of depreciation and amortization, which was partially offset by a $0.5 million of change in fair value of contingent consideration payable to ICAM, $2.3 million of realized gain on redemption of Convertible Notes, $12.0 million of purchases of investments and the net negative change in our operating assets and liabilities of $11.2 million.
Previous report
Cash flows used in investing activities of our continuing operations for the year ended June 30, 2025 were $1.3 million, which includes related party loan receivable of $8.0 million which we did not have in the prior year but which reaches maturity in January 2026. Cash flows used in investing activities also includes purchases of investments in held-to-maturity securities of $7.4 million, offset by proceeds from settlement of held-to-maturity investments of $17.5 million, which each differed from prior year due to changes in the investment portfolio shifting away from interest earning marketable securities to other strategic private investments. Further, investments in portfolio funds of $4.5 million for the year ended June 30, 2025 were driven by an investment in an additional special purpose vehicle during the year, which decreased from prior year due to investment in two special purpose vehicles in the prior year. Additionally, cash flows used in investing activity included the acquisition of Greenfield of $2.5 million and redemption of investments of $3.9 million.
Previous report
Cash flows provided by investing activities of our continuing operations for the year ended June 30, 2024 were $3.2 million which is attributed to the proceeds from settlement of held-to-maturity securities of $65.1 million and sales of investments of $6.8 million, partially offset by purchases of investments of $19.6 million and purchases of investments in held-to-maturity securities of $49.0 million. Cash flows used in investing activities of our discontinued operations for the year ended June 30, 2024 of $0.9 million were attributed to investing activities of our DME business.
Previous report
Cash flows used in financing activities of our continuing operations for the year ended June 30, 2025 were $8.8 million primarily due to a large increase in stock repurchases and the repurchase of Convertible Notes.
