  • Completed two securitizations with the tightest spreads in three years, ending the quarter with $240 million in liquidity and $662 million in available warehouse capacity.
  • Portfolio net interest margin improved to 366 basis points, up 10 basis points quarter-over-quarter, with a stable weighted average coupon of 9.7%.
Negative
  • GAAP net income and EPS dipped slightly year-over-year due to a higher effective tax rate, not operational weakness.
  • Total loan production declined to $672.6 million from $725 million a year ago, reflecting lower average loan sizes.

  • Combined REO activity net gain fell to $2.4 million from $5.7 million in Q2 2025, driven by a $3 million loss on existing REOs.
  • Total debt-to-equity ratio remains elevated at 9.7 times when including non-recourse securitizations, potentially limiting future leverage capacity.
