Timbercreek Financial Reports Third Quarter Results for 2025
Timbercreek Financial (TSX: TF) today announced its financial performance for the third quarter of 2025, showcasing their resilience in a challenging economic environment. Let's delve into the highlights that have defined their recent results.
Key Financial Highlights for Q3 2025
Robust Revenue Stream
In the latest quarter, Timbercreek Financial maintained a steady stream of income with a net investment income of $25.4 million, matching the performance from Q3 2024. This consistency is reflected in their net and comprehensive income, reported at $14.3 million before accounting for expected credit losses (ECL), affirming a basic earnings per share of $0.17.
Dividend Payout and Yield
For Q3 2025, the company declared total dividends of $14.3 million, or $0.17 per share. This reflects a payout ratio of 101.4%, slightly above the previous year's ratio of 95.3%. Notably, the current trading price of $7.24 translates into an attractive dividend yield of 9.5%, outperforming the 2-year Canadian bond yield.
Growth in Investment Portfolio
The net mortgage investment portfolio saw an increase to $1,054.5 million, a rise of 3.6% year-over-year, although it reflected a decrease from Q2 2025 due to a significant repayment totalling $82.9 million. Nevertheless, Timbercreek Financial's transaction pipeline for Q4 2025 appears robust, with over $200 million in funded and committed transactions so far.
Portfolio Resilience and Strategy
Maintaining Competitive Interest Rates
The company reported a decrease in their weighted average interest rate (WAIR) for the portfolio by 100 bps, which is significantly less than the drop in the Bank of Canada's prime rate, indicating a well-managed strategy in their loan portfolio. As of the end of Q3 2025, a majority of their variable rate loans had interest rate floors.
Dealing with Expected Credit Losses
As part of their regular evaluation, Timbercreek Financial recorded an ECL of $5.9 million. This included $3 million related to the revaluation of an office asset in Calgary currently in receivership proceedings, alongside $2.1 million from a redevelopment slated retail portfolio in Vancouver.
Strategic Focus on Resilient Real Estate Classes
In the face of ongoing economic challenges, the focus on the multi-family residential real estate sector remains steadfast, reflecting a strategic choice aimed at delivering stable income and capital preservation for investors. This particular asset class has shown itself to be resilient even amidst sector challenges, reinforcing Timbercreek's long-term investment strategy.
Strengthening Financial Backing
Renewed Credit Facilities
Timbercreek Financial recently enhanced its credit capacity by increasing its revolving credit facility to $600 million for a new two-year term, indicating strong financial backing for future growth. This improved financial infrastructure will support portfolio enhancements in the ensuing quarters.
CEO Insights on Market Position
CEO Blair Tamblyn remarked on the quarter: "Despite modest impacts from macroeconomic volatility causing transaction delays, we are witnessing sustainable strength in our investment pipeline with recalibrated commercial real estate valuations easing the path towards a new real estate cycle. Our originations remain strong as we anticipate closing the year on a positive note with portfolio growth resuming."
Looking Ahead
Future Growth and Stability
Timbercreek continues to uphold its commitment to delivering risk-adjusted returns, as demonstrated by an impressive 10-year internal rate of return exceeding 7.8%.
