HORSHAM, Pa.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Capmark Financial Group Inc. (the "Company") today issued its Quarterly Report as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2013. The Company reported a net loss of $1.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and had consolidated total assets of $2.2 billion, consolidated total liabilities of $1.3 billion, and stockholders' equity of $0.9 billion as of March 31, 2013.

  • The Company achieved consolidated net gains on loans, investments and real estate of $12 million.

  • Capmark Bank made a distribution to Capmark Financial Group Inc. of $157 million.

  • The Company paid a cash distribution of $4.50 per share on March 22, 2013 to shareholders of record on March 15, 2013, bringing aggregate distributions to shareholders since emergence from bankruptcy to $19.00 per share.

  • The Company paid an additional $68 million to prepetition creditors including $21 million under the settlement agreement with Japanese lenders, $3 million under the settlement agreement with creditors of Crystal Ball Holdings of Bermuda Limited and $44 million from the disputed claims reserve.

  • The Company recorded an unrealized gain of $14 million on its shares in a collateralized debt obligation which was included in accumulated other comprehensive income on the consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2013. The Company received $14 million of cash proceeds when the shares were redeemed subsequent to the end of the first quarter.

  • The Company continued to reduce its staffing levels and office locations commensurate with the reduction in assets and operating activities. The Company reduced its staff from 90 employees at year end to 70 at March 31, 2013 and expects to have approximately 55 employees by the end of the second quarter. The Company also plans to reduce its five office locations at March 31, 2013 to three by the end of the second quarter.


Consolidated Balance Sheet

The Company had consolidated total assets of $2.2 billion and $2.9 billion as of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively, primarily comprised of a portfolio of loans, real estate, real estate-related assets and cash and cash equivalents. Assets totaling $1.1 billion and $1.4 billion were held at Capmark Bank and $171.1 million and $253.5 million of assets were associated with discontinued operations as of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively.

The Company had consolidated total liabilities of $1.3 billion and $1.5 billion as of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively. Capmark Bank had liabilities of $0.9 billion and $1.0 billion and liabilities of $84.0 million and $114.7 million were associated with discontinued operations as of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively. Capmark Bank's liabilities were primarily comprised of Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC")-insured deposit liabilities as of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012.

Total stockholders' equity was $0.9 billion as of March 31, 2013 as compared to $1.3 billion as of December 31, 2012. The reduction was primarily due to the $451.1 million of cash distributions to holders of the Company's common stock.

Consolidated Results of Operations

The Company had income from continuing operations before income taxes of $1.7 million in the three months ended March 31, 2013, primarily due to $12.3 million of interest income on loans held for sale and investment securities available for sale and $10.3 million of noninterest income substantially offset by $18.9 million of noninterest expense and $2.0 million of interest expense. Interest income in the three months ended March 31, 2013 included the recognition of $5.5 million of previously deferred interest on loans held for sale. Noninterest income of $10.3 million primarily included $12.1 million of realized gains on full or partial dispositions of loans held for sale partially offset by $1.1 million of net losses from the application of LOCOM to loans held for sale. Noninterest expense of $18.9 million included $8.8 million of compensation and benefits costs and $5.7 million of professional fees, of which $2.0 million was attributable to fees of restructuring and advisory professionals and $0.8 million was attributable to fees associated with the new markets tax credit ("NMTC") assets. Compensation and benefits costs in the three months ended March 31, 2013 included $1.8 million for severance costs and $1.5 million for long term incentive plans. Interest expense of $2.0 million primarily included $10.2 million of contractual interest expense from deposit liabilities at Capmark Bank offset by $8.4 million from the accretion of the fresh start accounting premium for the deposit liabilities.

Liquidity

As of March 31, 2013, the Company's continuing operations had $1.2 billion in total cash and cash equivalents (including restricted cash), of which $1.0 billion was held by Capmark Bank and $0.2 billion was held by its other subsidiaries.

Cash from consolidated variable interest entities ("VIEs") is from entities that are no longer owned by the Company but continue to be recognized on the Company's balance sheet because derecognition criteria under GAAP have not been met. The increase in the related restricted cash as of March 31, 2013 as compared to December 31, 2012 was due primarily to the monetization of an underlying asset in an NMTC-related VIE which resulted in cash at the VIE. In the second quarter of 2013, the Company received $40.5 million attributable to that restricted cash.

The Company's primary sources of liquidity are expected to be (1) proceeds from the sale of loans, including discounted payoffs received in connection with loan workout efforts, (2) proceeds from the sale of real estate, (3) principal and interest payments on loans, (4) distributions received from equity investments and (5) sales of other assets in its portfolio.

Capmark Bank has cash and cash equivalents in excess of all of its remaining deposit liabilities and other liabilities as well as its expected operating expenses over the next 12 months. On October 2, 2009, Capmark Bank consented to cease and desist orders (the "C&D Orders") with the FDIC and the Utah Department of Financial Institutions ("UDFI"). Capmark Bank is prohibited under the C&D Orders from declaring or paying dividends or making any other form of payment representing a reduction in capital to Capmark Financial Group Inc. without the prior written consent or non-objection of the FDIC and the UDFI.

The Company expects to generate sufficient liquidity to meet its needs for cash in its Non-Capmark Bank operations over the next 12 months, including paying its operating expenses. The Company also expects that Capmark Bank has sufficient liquidity to meet its needs for cash for the next 12 months, including paying its operating expenses and interest and principal due on maturing deposit liabilities and other liabilities.

The Company paid a cash distribution of $4.50 per share on March 22, 2013 to shareholders of record on March 15, 2013. For U.S. federal income tax purposes, any distribution by the Company to its shareholders will be characterized as a dividend to the extent of the Company's current or cumulative earnings and profits. Distributions made in excess of earnings and profits are next treated as a return of capital to the extent of the shareholders' basis.

The Company will consider making additional distributions to shareholders of cash in excess of working capital needs and expects to make a distribution in the second quarter of 2013; however the specific timing and amount of any distribution have not been determined.
