Current report

During the quarter ended June 30, 2026, one borrower with an aggregate outstanding principal balance of approximately $935,000 secured by two properties located in Florida became delinquent on its interest payment obligations. We delivered a notice of default and, after the borrower failed to cure the default, retained Florida foreclosure counsel to pursue available remedies, including foreclosure, if necessary. Based on management’s evaluation of the estimated value of the underlying collateral, which management believes substantially exceeds the outstanding principal balance, we concluded that no allowance for credit losses was required as of June 30, 2026. We will continue to monitor the loan, the foreclosure process, if commenced, and the value of the underlying collateral each reporting period.

Current report

General and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2026 were approximately $495,000, compared to approximately $438,000 for the same period in 2025, representing an increase of approximately $57,000, or 13.0%. The increase was primarily attributable to increases in payroll, legal, bank, appraisal, and travel expenses.

Current report

Six Months Ended June 30, 2026 Compared to the Six Months Ended June 30, 2025

Current report

Total revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2026 was approximately $4,113,000 compared to approximately $4,629,000 for the same period in 2025, a decrease of approximately $516,000, or 11.1%. The decrease occurred despite increases in both the number of loans originated and the amount of capital deployed and was primarily attributable to lower interest rates and origination fees charged to borrowers as a result of increased competition in the marketplace. In addition, the Company granted approximately $91,000 of discretionary payoff and refinancing credits to certain borrowers during the six months. These credits were provided in connection with negotiated loan payoffs and other borrower-specific business matters. For the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, revenues of approximately $3,437,000 and $3,733,000, respectively, were attributable to interest income on secured commercial loans that we offer to real estate investors, and approximately $675,000 and $896,000, respectively, were attributable to origination fees on such loans. The loans are principally secured by collateral consisting of real estate and accompanied by personal guarantees from the principals of the borrowers.

Current report

Interest and amortization of deferred financing costs for the six months ended June 30, 2026 were approximately $762,000 compared to approximately $958,000 for the same period in 2025, representing a decrease of approximately $196,000, or 20.5%. The decrease was primarily attributable to lower interest expense resulting from lower average borrowings and lower SOFR rates (see Note 5 to the condensed consolidated financial statements).

Current report

Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2026 was approximately $2,427,000 compared to approximately $2,786,000 for the same period in 2025, representing a decrease of approximately $359,000, or 12.9%. The decrease was primarily attributable to lower revenue, partially offset by reduced interest expense.

Reworded paragraphs (18)

Previous wording

The properties securing the loans are generally classified as residential or commercial real estate and, typically, are not income producing. All loans, except for one loan with a current outstanding principal balance of approximately $20,000, are secured by a first mortgage lien on real estate. In addition, each loan is personally guaranteed by the principal(s) of the borrower, which guarantee may be collaterally secured by a pledge of the guarantor’s interest in the borrower. The face amount of the loans we originated in the past seven years ranged from $40,000 to a maximum of $3.6 million. Our lending policy limits the maximum amount of any loan to the lower of (i) 9.9% of the aggregate amount of our loan portfolio (not including the loan under consideration) and (ii) $4 million. Our loans typically have a maximum initial term of 12 months bearing interest at a fixed rate of 9% to 12.5% per year, except for one loan issued in June 2024, which initially bore interest at 11.5% per annum and, effective January 2, 2025, was modified to bear interest at 7.25% per annum for an extension term of up to one year, which term was subsequently extended for an additional year. In addition, we usually receive origination fees or “points” ranging from 0% to 2% of the original principal amount of the loan as well as other fees relating to underwriting and funding the loan. Interest is always payable monthly, in arrears. In the case of acquisition financing, the principal amount of the loan usually does not exceed 75% of the value of the property (as determined by an independent appraiser) and in the case of construction financing, it is typically up to 80% of construction costs.

Previous wording

Since commencing our business in 2007, except as set forth below, we have never foreclosed on a property, although sometimes we have renewed or extended the term of a loan to enable the borrower to avoid premature sale or refinancing of the property. When we renew or extend a loan, we generally receive additional “points” and other fees. In June 2023, we filed a foreclosure lawsuit relating to one property, as a result of a deed transfer from the borrower to a buyer without our consent. In that instance, the buyer of the property on which we had a valid mortgage suffered a data breach which resulted in the failure of the buyer to remit the funds needed for the loan payoff. In October 2023, we received the entire payoff amount for the loan receivable, including all unpaid fees, to rectify the situation.

Current wording

Since commencing our business in 2007, except as set forth below, we have not completed a foreclosure or taken title to any collateral property, although from time to time we have renewed or extended the term of a loan to enable the borrower to avoid premature sale or refinancing of the property. When we renew or extend a loan, we generally receive additional “points” and other fees.

Previous wording

Our primary business objective is to grow our loan portfolio while protecting and preserving capital in a manner that provides for attractive risk-adjusted returns to our shareholders over the long term through dividends. We intend to achieve this objective by continuing to selectively originate, fund loans secured by first mortgages on residential and commercial real estate held for investment located in the New York metropolitan area, including New Jersey and Connecticut, and in Florida, and to carefully manage and service our portfolio in a manner designed to generate attractive risk-adjusted returns across a variety of market conditions and economic cycles. We believe that current market dynamics specifically the demand/supply imbalance for relatively small real estate loans, presents opportunities for us to selectively originate high-quality first mortgage loans and we believe that these market conditions should persist for a number of years. We have built our business on a foundation of intimate knowledge of the New York metropolitan area real estate market combined with a disciplined credit and due diligence culture that is designed to protect and preserve capital. We believe that our flexibility and ability to structure loans that address the needs of our borrowers without compromising our standards on credit risk, our expertise, our intimate knowledge of the New York metropolitan area real estate market and our focus on newly originated first mortgage loans, has defined our success until now and should enable us to continue to achieve our objectives.
