(1)The Company recognized a net $57.7 million deferred tax asset (“DTA”) in the fourth quarter of 2019 that was driven by an increase in the amount of net operating loss carryforwards (“NOLs”) that, at December 31, 2019, the Company assessed were more likely than not to be utilized prior to their expiration.

(2)Book Value excluding deferred tax assets (“Adjusted Book Value”) and Adjusted Book Value per share are financial measures that are determined other than in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”). These non-GAAP financial measures are used to show the amount of our net worth in the aggregate and on a per-share basis, without giving effect to changes in Book Value due to the partial release of our deferred tax asset valuation allowance as of June 30, 2020, March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019. Refer to “Use of Non-GAAP Measures” for more information, including a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable historical measures determined under GAAP.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

INTRODUCTION

Overview

MMA Capital Holdings, Inc. focuses on infrastructure-related investments that generate positive environmental and social impacts and deliver attractive risk-adjusted total returns to our shareholders, with an emphasis on debt associated with infrastructure including renewable energy projects. Unless the context otherwise requires, and when used in this Report, the “Company,” “MMA,” “we,” “our” or “us” refers to MMA Capital Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiaries. We were originally organized as a Delaware limited liability company in 1996, converted to a Delaware corporation on January 1, 2019 and are externally managed by Hunt Investment Management, LLC (our “External Manager”), an affiliate of Hunt Companies, Inc. (Hunt Companies, Inc. and its affiliates are hereinafter referred to as “Hunt”).

Our current objective is to produce attractive risk-adjusted returns by investing in the large, growing and fragmented renewable energy market in the United States (“U.S.”). We believe that we are well positioned to take advantage of these and other investment opportunities because of our External Manager’s origination network built off of extensive relationships and credit expertise gathered through years of experience. We also seek to increase the Company’s return on equity by prudently deploying debt and recycling equity out of lower yielding investments that are unrelated to renewable energy and other infrastructure projects.

In addition to renewable energy investments, we continue to own a limited number of bond investments and real estate-related investments, as well as have subordinated debt with beneficial economic terms. Further, we have significant net operating loss carryforwards (“NOLs”) that may be used to offset future federal income tax obligations, a portion of which were reported as deferred tax assets (“DTAs”) in our Consolidated Balance Sheets at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019. Effective December 31, 2019, we no longer organize our assets and liabilities into discrete portfolios (in each Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that was filed in 2019, assets and liabilities of the Company were allocated to one of two portfolios, “Energy Capital” and “Other Assets and Liabilities”).

We operate as a single reporting segment.

COVID-19 and Related Business Impacts

General

In December 2019, a novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) was reported to have surfaced in Wuhan, China. Following its spread to over 100 countries, including the U.S., the World Health Organization declared a global pandemic on March 11, 2020. On March 13, 2020, the U.S. declared a national emergency with respect to COVID-19.

In many countries, including the U.S., the outbreak of COVID-19 has adversely impacted overall economic activity and contributed to significant volatility and negative pressure in financial markets. The global impact of the outbreak continues to evolve as many countries, including the U.S., continue to institute quarantines, business closures, governmental agency closures and restrictions on travel to contain COVID-19.

The long-term impact of COVID-19 on our operational and financial performance will depend on future developments, including the duration, spread and intensity of COVID-19, all of which are uncertain and difficult to predict. While we are not able to estimate the long-term effects of these factors on our business at this time, the adverse impact on our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows could be material. Refer to Part II, Item 1A. “Risk Factors” of this Report for additional information about risks to our business that are posed by COVID-19.

Table of Contents

Business Operations

We are managed by our External Manager. We also rely upon other third-party vendors to conduct business operations, including vendors that provide information technology services, legal and accounting services or other support services.

As of June 30, 2020, there were no disruptions to the services provided by the External Manager and support provided by other third parties in connection with our business operations.

Renewable Energy Investments

As of June 30, 2020, the construction and development of renewable energy projects that have been financed through loans made by the Solar Ventures (as defined below) were generally on schedule as the development and construction of such projects qualified as critical infrastructure or essential services. Furthermore, most of the unpaid principal balances associated with the Solar Ventures’ loans related to projects that are located in rural and less populated areas allowing for required social distancing and financed projects did not experience any significant supply chain issues during the second quarter of 2020.

All loans made by the Solar Ventures were assessed to be adequately secured and were expected at June 30, 2020 to be repaid in full. In most cases, the repayment of the Solar Venture loans, or their “take-out,” is dependent upon the refinancing of a given loan or the sale of an underlying renewable energy project to third-parties, both of which typically require some combination of tax credit equity, sponsor equity and construction or permanent debt financing. Given deteriorating macro-economic conditions, uncertainty in the financial markets and our dependence on a functioning renewable energy finance market, we will continue to closely monitor loan performance and expected sources of repayment.

Origination volume at the Solar Ventures during the second quarter of 2020 was generally comparable to the amount of loans originated during the second quarter of 2019, while origination volume during the first six months of 2020 exceeded loan originations made during the first six months of 2019.

During the second quarter of 2020, market yields associated with certain funded loans at the Solar Ventures, particularly those that had longer remaining terms than average and were without take-out financing commitments, decreased. Consequently, the overall fair value of the loan portfolio of the Solar Ventures increased and the Company recognized its allocable share of related unrealized gains, or $3.9 million, during the second quarter of 2020. Net fair value gains recognized by the Solar Ventures in the second quarter of 2020 nearly offset the amount of unrealized loan losses, including the Company’s share thereof, that were recognized during the first quarter of 2020.

Other Investments and Hedging Instruments

Market yields associated with the Company’s bond investments generally decreased in the second quarter of 2020. Consequently, the Company recognized $0.5 million of net unrealized fair value gains in the second quarter associated with such investments. Changes in the fair value of these investments are expected to remain volatile until market conditions moderate.  

Given decreases in benchmark interest rates that generally stemmed from actions taken by central banks to stem the tide of the economic downturn, the fair value of interest rate hedge positions of the Company decreased in the second quarter of 2020 by $0.3 million. Additionally, the Company’s foreign currency forward exchange hedge position decreased by $0.2 million as the rand appreciated modestly against the U.S. dollar during the second quarter of 2020. While these positions are effective at mitigating the Company’s exposure to certain interest rate and foreign currency risks, changes in the fair value of these instruments are expected to remain volatile until market conditions moderate.

The Company’s real estate-related investments are accounted for at cost, in the case of our one land investment, or follow the equity method of accounting, in the case of our equity investments in unconsolidated funds or ventures. The Company’s 80% ownership interest in a joint venture, which owns a mixed-use town center development that consists of hotel tenants, retail tenants and undeveloped land parcels and whose incremental tax revenues secure our tax-exempt municipal bond

Table of Contents

(“Infrastructure Bond”) (hereinafter, the “SF Venture”), was determined to be other-than-temporarily impaired during the preparation of our second quarter financial statements as of June 30, 2020, given the impacts of the downturn in the economy stemming from COVID-19. As such, this investment was written down to its fair value at June 30, 2020, using valuation inputs that were sourced from a third-party specialist. Consequently, the Company recognized a related $9.0 million impairment loss in its Consolidated Statements of Operations in the second quarter of 2020. The balance of the Company’s real estate-related investments was not assessed to be other-than-temporarily impaired at June 30, 2020.

We are monitoring the economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the performance of our investments and underlying real estate values. Although we have not recognized impairment charges other than that for the SF Venture discussed above, we believe it is reasonably possible that we may be required to recognize one or more material impairment charges over the next 12 months, particularly if underlying economic conditions continue to deteriorate. Because any such impairment charge will be based on future circumstances, we cannot predict at this time whether we will be required to recognize any further impairment charges and, if required, the timing or amount of any impairment charge.

DTAs

The Company’s assessment of the likelihood of realizing tax benefits related to DTAs recognized in the fourth quarter of 2019 did not change at June 30, 2020. That is, while COVID-19 caused a sharp deterioration in macro-economic conditions, the potential amount and permanence of long-term impacts of those conditions on the Company’s business was uncertain at June 30, 2020. Consequently, the Company did not make an adjustment in the second quarter of 2020 to the carrying value of DTAs that were recognized at December 31, 2019. However, given such uncertainty and other factors, we believe it is reasonably possible that, within the next 12 months, a reduction to the net carrying value of DTAs that is material to the Company’s financial statements could be recognized. However, whether we recognize such a loss and the exact timing and amount of loss recognition depends upon future circumstances and, therefore, cannot be predicted at this time.

In the second quarter of 2020, the Company recognized a $2.1 million decrease in the net carrying value of DTAs. This decrease was primarily attributable to deferred income tax expense that was recognized in the second quarter of 2020 to establish a valuation allowance against deferred tax benefits stemming from the $9.0 million impairment loss associated with the Company’s equity investment in the SF Venture. The corresponding DTA was assessed to not be realizable because the decline in fair value of our investment was determined to be other-than-temporary.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company is committed to make additional capital contributions to certain of its investments in partnerships and ventures. Through June 30, 2020, the Company has honored all such commitments and we believe that we will continue to do so as these commitments arise.

Through June 30, 2020, the Company was in compliance with all its debt covenants and, as further discussed below, the Company closed two additional financing transactions in the second quarter of 2020.  

Renewable Energy Investments

We invest in loans that finance renewable energy projects to enable developers, design and build contractors and system owners to develop, build and operate renewable energy systems throughout the U.S. Renewable energy debt in which we invest is primarily structured as senior secured fixed rate loans that are made through joint ventures or directly on our balance sheet. These loans, which are generally short term in nature, are typically made to borrowers when they are in the late stages of development or in construction of their commercial, utility and community solar scale photovoltaic (“PV”) facilities that are located across different states and benefit from various state and federal regulatory programs. The short duration of loans in which we invest also helps us to efficiently manage interest rate risk, mitigate long-term risks such as credit exposure to off-take counterparties and provide us flexibility to target investments.

We generally invest in renewable energy investments through the following joint ventures: Solar Construction Lending, LLC (“SCL”); Solar Permanent Lending, LLC (“SPL”); Solar Development Lending, LLC (“SDL”); these joint ventures

Table of Contents

together with our wholly owned subsidiary, Renewable Energy Lending, LLC (“REL”), are hereinafter referred to as the “Solar Ventures.” We are a 50% investor member in the renewable energy joint ventures in which we invest though we may periodically have a minority economic interest as a result of non-pro rata capital contributions made by our capital partner pursuant to non-pro rata funding agreements between our capital partner and us. Distributions from such ventures are generally made in proportion to the members’ respective economic interests but may be made disproportionately to our capital partner, when our capital partner has made non-pro rata capital contributions, until such time that the amount of equity invested by the Company and its capital partner have come back into equal balance. At June 30, 2020, we had a minority economic interest in SCL and SDL of 44.2% and 43.6%, respectively.

Lending Activities of the Solar Ventures

The Solar Ventures typically lend on a senior secured basis collateralized by solar projects, but may also invest in subordinated loans and revolving loans and may finance non-solar renewable technologies such as wind and battery storage, or provide equipment financing and other customized debt solutions for borrowers. The Solar Ventures have historically targeted loans that are underwritten to generate internal rates of return (“IRR”) ranging from 10% to 15%, before expenses, with origination fees that range from 1.0% to 3.0% on committed capital and fixed-rate coupons that range from 7.0% to 14.0%. These loans generally range in size from $2 million to over $50 million.

Since their inception in 2015, the Solar Ventures have invested in more than 190 project-based loans that total $2.8 billion of debt commitments for the development and construction of over 760 renewable energy project sites. When completed, these projects will contribute to the generation of over 6.3 gigawatts of renewable energy, thereby eliminating approximately 181.3 million metric tons of carbon emissions over their project lives. The Solar Ventures closed $247.5 million of commitments across 12 loans during the second quarter of 2020 as compared to $287.1 million across 11 loans during the first quarter of 2020.

Through June 30, 2020, $1.6 billion of commitments across 132 project-based loans had been repaid with no loss of principal, resulting in a weighted-average IRR (“WAIRR”) of 16.7% that was on average higher than originally underwritten loan IRRs. For the three months ended June 30, 2020, 11 loans totaling $133.3 million of commitments had been repaid, resulting in a WAIRR of 12.9%. WAIRR is measured as the total return in dollars of all repaid loans divided by the total commitment amount associated with such loans, where (i) the total return for each repaid loan was calculated as the product of each loan’s IRR and its commitment amount and (ii) IRR for each repaid loan was established by solving for a discount rate that made the net present value of all loan cash flows equal zero. WAIRR has been higher than the net return on the Company's investments in the Solar Ventures because it is a measure of gross returns earned by the Solar Ventures on repaid loans and does not include the impact of certain items, including: (i) operating expenses of the Solar Ventures; (ii) the amortization of the purchase premium paid by the Company in the second quarter of 2018 to buyout our former investment partner’s interest in REL; and (iii) the opportunity cost of idle capital. 

At June 30, 2020, loans funded through the Solar Ventures had an aggregate unpaid principal balance (“UPB”) and total fair value (“FV”) of $758.5 million, a weighted-average remaining maturity of seven months and a weighted-average coupon of 9.5%. At December 31, 2019, loans funded through the Solar Ventures had an aggregate UPB and total fair value of $654.4 million, a weighted-average maturity of 10 months and a weighted-average coupon of 10.8%.

The Solar Ventures had $427.4 million of unfunded loan commitments that required borrowers to meet various conditions set forth in governing loan agreements in order for funding to occur. At June 30, 2020, $214.1 million of such commitments were attributable to the Company based upon its interest in these ventures. Unfunded loan commitments that qualify for funding are anticipated to be funded primarily by capital within the Solar Ventures through a combination of existing loan redemptions and idle capital. To the extent capital within the Solar Ventures is not sufficient to meet their funding obligations, additional capital contributions by the members of the Solar Ventures would be required.

Investment Interests and Related Carrying Values

At June 30, 2020, through MMA Energy Holdings, LLC, the Company was a 50% investor member but held economic interests of 44.2%, 50.0% and 43.6% in SCL, SPL and SDL, respectively, and was the sole member in REL. The carrying value and income-related information related to investments that we have made in, or related to, the Solar Ventures are further discussed below. During the second quarter of 2020, the Company and its capital partner in SCL and SDL funded various non-pro rata capital calls pursuant to which our capital partner contributed $63.5 million of $72.9 million in SCL capital calls and $4.5 million of $4.5 million in SDL capital calls, while the Company contributed the balance. In addition, in accordance with a non-pro rata funding agreement between the Company and our capital partner, our capital partner in SCL and SDL received distributions of $45.0 million and $10.6 million, respectively, while the Company received $9.4 million of distributions from SDL. As a consequence of these non-pro rata capital contributions and distributions during the second quarter of 2020, our economic interest in SCL and SDL decreased in percentage terms from 44.5% and 44.5% in SCL and SDL, respectively, at March 31, 2020.

In addition to investments in the Solar Ventures, in the fourth quarter of 2019, the Company invested in a loan originated by our External Manager with a $2.1 million commitment made to a special purpose entity that is secured by land, which is subject to a 25-year ground lease to a community solar project, and by the equity interests in the borrower. The UPB and fair value of this loan, which bears interest at a fixed rate of 8.0% and matures in December 2022, was $1.3 million at June 30, 2020.

The carrying value of the Company’s equity investments in the Solar Ventures increased $73.9 million during the six months ended June 30, 2020 as a result of $55.6 million of net capital contributions made, which were sourced primarily from the $53.6 million repayment of the secured loan receivable from Hunt, amounts drawn on our revolving credit facility and proceeds received in the second quarter of 2020 from financing transactions involving the Infrastructure Bond and the Company’s direct investment in real estate that is in process of development. Such increase was also driven in part by $18.3 million of equity in income in the Solar Ventures that was recognized during the six months ended June 30, 2020.

Investment Income and Return on Investment

The Company applies the equity method of accounting to its equity investments in the Solar Ventures, which are not consolidated by the Company for reporting purposes. Accordingly, the Company recognizes its allocable share of the Solar Ventures’ net income based on the Company’s weighted-average percentage ownership during each reporting period. Separately, the Company recognizes interest income associated with the aforementioned loan using the interest method.

Table 3 summarizes income recognized by the Company in connection with our renewable energy investments for the periods presented.

Equity in income from the Solar Ventures recognized by the Company in the second quarter of 2020 included its allocable share, or $3.9 million, of $8.9 million of net fair value gains that were recognized by the Solar Ventures related to its loan portfolio (the recognition of these net fair value gains reversed nearly in full the Company’s allocable share of net fair value losses recognized by the Solar Ventures in the first quarter of 2020). The Company generated an unlevered net return on investment from our renewable energy investments, as measured on an annualized twelve-month trailing basis, of 11.8% and 10.7% for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and June 30, 2019, respectively. These returns were measured by dividing total investment income from renewable energy investments by the average carrying value of renewable energy investments on a trailing four quarter basis.

Refer to the comparative discussion of our Consolidated Results of Operations for more information about income that was recognized in connection with the Company’s renewable energy investments.

Leveraging our Renewable Energy Investments

On September 19, 2019, MMA Energy Holdings, LLC (“MEH” or “Borrower”), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into a $125.0 million (the “Facility Amount”) revolving credit agreement with various lenders. During the first quarter of 2020, the maximum Facility Amount was increased to $175.0 million and the committed amount of the revolving credit facility increased from $100.0 million to $120.0 million upon the joinder of an additional lender and an increase in commitment by one of the existing lenders.

Obligations associated with the revolving credit facility are guaranteed by the Company and are secured by specified assets of the Borrower and a pledge of all of the Company’s equity interest in the Borrower through pledge and security documentation. Availability and amounts advanced under the revolving credit facility, which may be used for various business purposes, are subject to compliance with a borrowing base comprised of assets that comply with certain eligibility criteria, and includes late-stage development, construction and permanent loans to finance renewable energy projects and cash.

Table of Contents

Borrowing on the revolving credit facility bears interest at the one-month London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”), adjusted for statutory reserve requirements (subject to a 1.5% floor), plus a fixed spread of 2.75% per annum. The Borrower has also agreed to pay certain customary fees and expenses and to provide certain indemnities. In certain circumstances where the interest rate is unable to be determined, including in the event LIBOR ceases to be published, the administrative agent to the credit agreement will select a new rate in its reasonable judgment, including any adjustment to the replacement rate to reflect a different credit spread. The maturity date of the credit agreement is September 19, 2022, subject to a 12-month extension solely to allow refinancing or orderly repayment of the facility.  

At June 30, 2020, the UPB and carrying value of amounts borrowed under the revolving credit facility was $110.0 million and the Company recognized $2.9 million of related interest expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations during the six months ended June 30, 2020.

The liquidity accessed by the Company through the revolving credit facility has increased the amount of capital invested in the Solar Ventures.

Deferred Tax Assets

Deferred taxes arise from differences between assets and liabilities measured for financial reporting versus income tax return purposes. DTAs are recognized if we assess that it is more likely than not that tax benefits, including NOLs and other tax attributes, will be realized prior to their expiration.

At June 30, 2020, the reported carrying value of the Company’s net DTA was $57.3 million. A valuation allowance was also maintained at such reporting date against the portion of our DTAs that correspond to federal and state NOL carryforwards that we expected will expire prior to utilization based upon our forecast of pretax book income.

Investments in Bonds

The Company has one tax-exempt municipal bond that financed the development of infrastructure for a mixed-use town center development in Spanish Fort, Alabama and is secured by incremental tax revenues generated from the development. At June 30, 2020, the Infrastructure Bond had a stated fixed interest rate of 6.3% and had a UPB and fair value of $26.7 million and $23.9 million, respectively. As further discussed below, the Company closed in the second quarter of 2020 a financing transaction that involved the sale of this bond investment to a third party with which the Company contemporaneously-executed a total return swap (“TRS”) agreement that also referenced such bond investment. Given the economic interest retained in such bond investment through the TRS agreement, the Company reported the conveyance of such investment as a secured borrowing and, therefore, continued to recognize the Infrastructure Bond on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets.        

At June 30, 2020, we also held one subordinated unencumbered tax-exempt multifamily bond investment with a UPB and fair value of $4.0 million and $6.1 million, respectively.

Real Estate-Related Investments

At June 30, 2020, we maintained an interest in a real estate-related investment through our 80% ownership interest in the SF Venture. The carrying value of this investment was $10.1 million at June 30, 2020.

At June 30, 2020, the Company maintained an 11.85% ownership interest in the South Africa Workforce Housing Fund (“SAWHF”). SAWHF is a multi-investor fund whose term matured in April 2020. However, the fund does not anticipate fully exiting all its remaining investments until December 31, 2021. On May 22, 2020, the Company received a pro-rata distribution from SAWHF of 7.2 million common shares of a residential real estate investment trust (“REIT”) that is listed on the Johannesburg Stock Exchange. These REIT shares are reported at their fair value and are denominated in South African rand. The carrying values of the Company’s equity investments in SAWHF and the REIT were $2.0 million and $2.7 million, respectively, at June 30, 2020.

Table of Contents

At June 30, 2020, we also owned one direct investment in real estate consisting of a parcel of land that is currently in the process of development. This real estate is located just outside the city of Winchester in Frederick County, Virginia. During the first six months of 2020, the Company invested $6.1 million in additional land improvements that were capitalized, increasing the carrying value of our investment. As of June 30, 2020, the carrying value of this investment was $14.5 million.

Other Debt Obligations

At June 30, 2020, the Company had other debt obligations that included subordinated debt, notes payable and other debt used to finance certain non-interest bearing investments and asset related debt that was used to finance interest bearing investments. As further discussed below, in the second quarter of 2020, the Company closed a $10.0 million lending arrangement that is secured by our direct investment in real estate that is in process of development and a $23.5 million financing arrangement associated with its Infrastructure Bond investment. The carrying value and weighted-average yield of the Company’s other debt obligations was $135.5 million and 3.0%, respectively, at June 30, 2020. Refer to Table 9, “Debt,” for more information.

SUMMARY OF FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE

Net Worth

Common shareholders’ equity (“Book Value”) decreased $3.2 million in the second quarter of 2020 to $274.5 million at June 30, 2020. This change was driven by $3.3 million of comprehensive loss and $0.1 million of other increases in common shareholders’ equity.

Book Value per share decreased $0.58, or 1.2%, in the second quarter of 2020 to $47.24 at June 30, 2020.

Book Value adjusted to exclude the carrying value of our net DTAs (“Adjusted Book Value”) decreased $1.1 million in the second quarter of 2020 to $217.2 million at June 30, 2020. This change was driven by $1.5 million of “Net loss from continuing operations before income taxes” and $0.4 million of other decreases in Book Value.

Adjusted Book Value per share decreased $0.22, or 0.6%, in the second quarter of 2020 to $37.37 at June 30, 2020.

Refer to “Use of Non-GAAP Measures” for more information regarding the reconciliation of Adjusted Book Value and Adjusted Book Value per share to our most comparable GAAP measures.

Comprehensive Loss

We recognized a comprehensive loss of $3.3 million during the second quarter of 2020, which consisted of $3.5 million of net loss and $0.2 million of other comprehensive income. In comparison, we recognized $2.1 million of comprehensive income in the quarter ended June 30, 2019, which consisted of $23.2 million of net income and $21.1 million of other comprehensive loss.

The $3.5 million net loss recognized in the second quarter of 2020 was primarily driven by a $9.0 million impairment charge recognized on our equity investment in the SF Venture, as described above, other interest expense, operating expenses and income tax expense, the net effect of which was largely offset by the impact of strong returns on renewable energy investments and net interest income. Refer to “Consolidated Results of Operations,” for more information.

Net loss from continuing operations before income taxes in the second quarter of 2020 was $1.5 million, or $0.27 per share, as compared to $23.3 million net income in the second quarter of 2019.

Other comprehensive gain of $0.2 million that we reported in the second quarter of 2020 was primarily attributable to net fair value gains that we recognized in connection with our bond investments.

Table of Contents

Cash and cash equivalents increased primarily due to proceeds received in connection with financing transactions that closed in the second quarter of 2020 involving the Company’s Infrastructure Bond investment and our direct investment in real estate.  

Restricted cash increased primarily as a result of cash collateral to our counterparty in connection with the aforementioned financing transaction involving the Company’s Infrastructure Bond investment.

Investments in debt securities decreased primarily due to the recognition of net fair value losses in the first six months of 2020 that were attributable to increases in the market yields of such investments.

Investments in partnerships increased primarily as a result of net capital contributions of $55.6 million that we made to the Solar Ventures and the recognition of $18.3 million of equity in income of our investees. The impact of these items was partially offset by the effects of both a $9.0 million impairment charge recognized in the second quarter of 2020 related to our equity investment in the SF Venture and a $2.9 million distribution from SAWHF of 7.2 million common shares of a listed residential REIT.

Deferred tax assets, net decreased $0.4 million primarily due to deferred income tax expense that was recognized in the first six months of 2020 to establish a valuation allowance against deferred tax benefits stemming from the $9.0 million impairment charge associated with the Company’s equity investment in the SF Venture.

Loans held for investment decreased primarily as a result of the repayment of the Company’s $53.6 million loan receivable from Hunt (the “Hunt Note”) on January 3, 2020.

Other Assets increased primarily as a result of $6.1 million of land improvement costs that were capitalized in connection with a real estate investment that is in process of development and the aforementioned distribution from SAWHF of REIT common shares.

Debt increased primarily as a result of proceeds received in the second quarter of 2020 related to the aforementioned financing transactions involving the Company’s Infrastructure Bond investment and direct investment in real estate that is in process of development.

Net Interest Income

Net interest income represents interest income earned on our investments in bonds, loans and other interest-earning assets less our cost of funding associated with the debt that we use to finance these assets.

Net interest income for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2020, declined compared to that reported for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2019, primarily due to the full repayment of the Hunt Note and the disposition and redemption of various bond-related investments throughout 2019.

Equity in Income from Unconsolidated Funds and Ventures

Equity in income from unconsolidated funds and ventures includes our allocable share of the earnings or losses from the funds and ventures in which we have an equity interest.

Equity in income from the Solar Ventures for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2020, increased compared to that reported for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2019, primarily as a result of a significant period-over-period increase in the amount of capital invested and the volume of loans originated by the Solar Ventures, which drove net income of the Solar Ventures and the Company’s share thereof higher. Such returns included the Company’s allocable share of net fair value gains (losses) recognized by the Solar Ventures in connection with the funded portion of loan commitments. The Company’s allocable share of such net fair value gains (losses) was $3.9 million and $(0.1) million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively.

Equity in income from U.S. real estate partnerships for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2020, decreased compared to that reported for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2019, primarily as a result of (i) a reduction in 2020 of nonrecurring gains associated with the sale of investment properties by real estate partnerships in which the Company maintained an ownership interest and (ii) an increase in net losses attributable to the Company from the SF Venture largely driven by a decline in rental income associated with the effects of COVID-19 and an increase in undeveloped land license fee expense. We anticipate that we will continue to recognize equity in losses from the SF Venture for the foreseeable future.  

Net (Losses) Gains

Net (losses) gains may include net realized and unrealized gains or losses relating to bonds, loans, derivatives, other assets, real estate and other investments as well as gains or losses realized by the Company in connection with the extinguishment of debt obligations.

The Company recognized net losses for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2020, compared to net gains reported for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2019, primarily due to nonrecurring gains of $20.7 million and $24.3 million that were recognized in the second quarter of 2019 and the first six months of 2019, respectively, in connection with the sale or redemption of bond investments. The impact of these items was partially offset by decreases in net fair value losses of $1.3 million and $1.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively, related to derivative instruments that stemmed from changes in reference interest and foreign exchange rates.

Other Interest Expense

Other interest expense for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2020, increased compared to that reported for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2019, primarily due to advances on the Company’s revolving credit facility.

Impairment Losses

Impairment losses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, were attributable to the Company’s equity investment in the SF Venture, which was determined to be other-than-temporarily impaired at June 30, 2020.

Operating expenses for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2020, increased compared to that reported for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2019, primarily due to (i) an increase in the amount of compensation-related expense reimbursements that were payable to the External Manager and (ii) $1.0 million of losses recognized in the first six months of 2020 in connection with the remeasurement of foreign currency-denominated assets into U.S. dollars for reporting purposes as the rand weakened against the U.S. dollar during such reporting period.

Income Tax Expense

The net income tax expense recognized during the three months and six months ended June 30, 2020, increased compared to that reported for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2019, primarily due to the recognition of deferred income tax expense to establish a valuation allowance against deferred tax benefits stemming from the $9.0 million impairment loss associated with the Company’s equity investment in the SF Venture. The corresponding DTA was assessed to not be realizable because the decline in fair value of our equity investment was determined to be other-than-temporary.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Liquidity

Liquidity is a measure of our ability to meet potential short-term (within one year) and long-term cash requirements, including ongoing commitments to repay borrowings, fund and maintain our current and future assets and other general business needs. Our sources of liquidity include: (i) cash and cash equivalents; (ii) cash flows from operating activities; (iii) cash flows from investing activities; and (iv) cash flows from financing activities.

Summary of Cash Flows

Table 8 provides a consolidated view of the change in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash of the Company for the periods presented. At June 30, 2020 and June 30, 2019, $17.3 million and $2.5 million, respectively, of amounts presented below represented restricted cash.

Operating Activities

Cash flows from operating activities include, but are not limited to, interest income on our investments, and income distributions from our investments in unconsolidated funds and ventures.

Net cash flows provided by operating activities during the six months ended June 30, 2020 increased $1.8 million compared to such net cash flows during the six months ended June 30, 2019. This net increase was primarily driven by a $7.4 million increase in distributions received from the Company’s investment in the Solar Ventures. The impact of this increase was partially offset by (i) a $3.9 million decline in net cash flows from bond-related investments given the disposition and redemption of various bond investments and termination of TRS agreements in 2019 and (ii) a $1.3 million increase in interest expense that was primarily attributable to the Company’s revolving credit facility.

Table of Contents

Investing Activities

Net cash flows associated with investing activities include, but are not limited to, principal payments; capital contributions and distributions; advance of loans held for investment; and sales proceeds from the sale of bonds, loans and real estate and other investments.

Net cash flows used in investing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2020 increased $0.3 million compared to such net cash flows during the six months ended June 30, 2019. The net impacts of an $18.7 million increase in capital contributions made to the Solar Ventures and a $21.7 million decrease in capital distributions received from the Company’s investments in partnerships (primarily related to its investments in the Solar Ventures) were largely offset by a $29.6 million increase in net principal payments and bond-related sales proceeds received on bonds and loans held for investment, which was primarily due to the full repayment of the $53.6 million Hunt Note during the first quarter of 2020, and a $10.6 million decrease in cash used for advances on and originations of loans held for investment.

Financing Activities

Net cash flows provided by financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2020 increased $48.3 million compared to such net cash flows during the six months ended June 30, 2019. This increase was primarily attributable to net advances from the revolving credit facility and advances during the second quarter of 2020 from financing transactions associated with the Company’s Infrastructure Bond investment and direct investment in real estate that is in process of being developed. The impact of this increase was partially offset by $0.7 million of debt issuance costs that were incurred in connection with (i) an increase in the first quarter of 2020 in the capacity of the revolving credit facility and (ii) financing transactions that were closed during the second quarter of 2020 associated with the aforementioned financing transactions.

Capital Resources

Our debt obligations include liabilities that we recognized in connection with our subordinated debt, revolving credit facility debt and other notes payable. The major types of debt obligations of the Company are further discussed below. We use the revolving credit facility to finance our investments in the Solar Ventures. See Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements – Note 6, “Debt,” for more information.

Table 9 summarizes the carrying values and weighted-average effective interest rates of the Company’s debt obligations that were outstanding at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

(1)Carrying value amounts and weighted-average interest rates reported in this table include the effects of any discounts, premiums and other cost basis adjustments. An effective interest rate represents an internal rate of return of a debt instrument that makes the net present value of all cash flows, inclusive of cash flows that give rise to cost basis adjustments, equal zero and in the case of (i) fixed rate instruments, is measured as of an instrument’s issuance date and (ii) variable rate instruments, is measured as of each date that a reference interest rate resets.

Table of Contents

Subordinated Debt

At June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company had subordinated debt obligations that had a total UPB of $87.2 million and $88.0 million, respectively. This debt included four tranches that amortize 2.0% per annum over their contractual lives, are due to mature with balloon payments between March 2035 and July 2035 and require the Company to pay interest based upon three-month LIBOR plus a fixed spread of 2.0%. At June 30, 2020 the weighted average interest pay rate on the outstanding debt was 2.9%.

Revolving Credit Facility Debt Obligations

At June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, MEH, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company had borrowed $110.0 million and $94.5 million, respectively, from the revolving credit facility. This debt obligation, which is guaranteed by the Company and secured by (i) specific assets of the Borrower and (ii) a pledge of all of the Company’s equity interest in the Borrower, which in turn owns our equity investments in the Solar Ventures, matures on September 19, 2022, and is subject to a 12-month extension solely to allow refinancing or orderly repayment of the debt obligation. This debt obligation bears interest equal to one-month LIBOR (subject to a 1.5% floor) plus a fixed spread of 2.75%, which, at June 30, 2020 was 4.25%.

Notes Payable and Other Debt

At June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company had notes payable and other debt with a UPB of $18.1 million and $8.4 million, respectively.

At June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, $4.3 million and $6.8 million, respectively, of this debt relates to financing that was obtained to complete the purchase of the Company’s 11.85% ownership interest in SAWHF. This debt, which is denominated in South African rand, amortizes over its contractual life, is due to mature on September 8, 2020, and requires the Company to pay interest based upon the Johannesburg Interbank Agreed Rate (“JIBAR”) plus a fixed spread of 5.15%, which at June 30, 2020 was 9.1%.

At June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, $4.5 million and $1.5 million, respectively, of the notes payable and other debt relates to debt obligations to the Morrison Grove Management, LLC principals (“MGM Principals”). This debt bears interest at 5.0%. The $3.0 million debt obligation amortizes over its contractual life and is due to mature on January 1, 2026. The $1.5 million debt obligation is interest only until March 31, 2026 and then amortizes in three equal installments until its maturity date of January 1, 2027.

On June 1, 2020, the Company entered into a $10.0 million construction loan that is secured by our direct investment in real estate that is in the process of development. The initial advance from this debt was $9.3 million and $0.5 million of capacity has been reserved for interest payments. The total amount advanced by the lender will not exceed 65% of the value of the pledged real estate plus 75% of the total development allowable hard costs incurred by the borrower. The loan is prepayable at any time without penalty, with all net proceeds realized from the sale of any portion of the real property required to be used to repay the outstanding UPB of the loan. Construction draws may not exceed a total principal sum of $11.1 million over the life of the facility, with the maximum outstanding UPB at any point in time not to exceed $10.0 million. The contractual maturity date of this facility is June 1, 2023, although the facility is subject to three extension options (at the discretion of the borrower and lender): (i) the first extension term would expire on November 1, 2023; (ii) the second extension term would expire on May 1, 2024 and (iii) the final amortized term would expire three years after the initial term, first extension term and second extension term, as applicable. Amounts drawn from this debt facility are repayable on an interest only basis at a rate of 4.85% with all outstanding principal due at maturity during the initial term, first extension term and second extension term. However, during the final extension term the debt bears interest at a rate of three-month LIBOR plus 3.0% per annum, subject to a 5.0% floor with principal amortization required monthly over the three year extension term. Obligations associated with this debt are guaranteed by the Company. At June 30, 2020, this debt obligation had a UPB of $9.3 million.

Asset Related Debt

Asset related debt is debt that finances interest-bearing assets of the Company. The interest expense associated with this debt is included within “Net interest income” on the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Bond Related Debt

On June 5, 2020, the Company entered into a TRS agreement involving our Infrastructure Bond, which was sold concurrently to our TRS counterparty. Proceeds received in connection with the conveyance of such bond investment were reported as a secured borrowing. The TRS did not receive financial statement recognition because it caused the transfer of such bond investment not to qualify as a sale for reporting purposes. The TRS agreement has a maturity date of June 6, 2022, and requires the Company to pay interest based upon the Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association index rate, subject to a 0.5% floor, plus a spread of 2.0%, which at June 30, 2020, was 2.5%. These payment terms are used to accrue interest related to the secured borrowing that was recognized upon conveyance of the Company’s bond investment. Additionally, as required under the terms of the TRS agreement, the Company pledged cash collateral of $10.0 million representing 37.5% of the referenced bond’s UPB. At June 30, 2020, this debt obligation had a UPB of $23.5 million. Additionally, under the terms of the TRS, the Company’s TRS counterparty is entitled to share in 10% of the increase in fair value, if any, of the Infrastructure Bond between the trade and termination dates of the TRS agreement. For reporting purposes, this provision is treated as a freestanding derivative instrument that is reported on a fair value basis.

Non-bond Related Debt

At December 31, 2019, the Company had a debt obligation to MGM Principals with a UPB of $3.5 million. Upon the full redemption of the Hunt Note on January 3, 2020, this asset related debt obligation to the MGM Principals was reclassified to notes payable and other debt.

Covenant Compliance

At June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company was in compliance with all covenants under its debt arrangements.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

At June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company had no off-balance sheet arrangements.

Other Contractual Commitments

The Company is committed to make additional capital contributions to certain of its investments in partnerships and ventures. Refer to Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements - Note 3, “Investments in Partnerships,” for more information.

At June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary REL had unfunded loan commitments of $0.8 million and $1.6 million, respectively. Refer to Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements - Note 4, “Loans Held for Investment (“HFI”)” for more information.

The Company uses derivative instruments to hedge interest rate and foreign currency risks. Depending upon movements in reference interest and foreign exchange rates, the Company may be required to make payments to the counterparties to these agreements. Refer to Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements – Note 7, “Derivative Instruments,” for more information about these instruments.

Common Shares

At June 30, 2020, the Company did not have an active share buyback plan in place.

Dividend Policy

The Board makes the final determination regarding dividends based on our External Manager’s recommendation, which is based on an evaluation of a number of factors, including our financial condition, business prospects, the predictability of recurring cash flows from operations, available cash and other factors the Board may deem relevant. The Board does not believe paying a dividend is appropriate at the current time.

Tax Benefits Rights Agreement

Effective May 5, 2015, the Company adopted a Rights Plan designed to help preserve the Company’s NOLs. In connection with adopting the Rights Plan, the Company declared a distribution of one right per common share to shareholders of record as of May 15, 2015. The rights do not trade apart from the current common shares until the distribution date, as defined in the Rights Plan. Under the Rights Plan, the acquisition by an investor (or group of related investors) of greater than a 4.9% stake in the Company, could result in all existing shareholders other than the new 4.9% holder having the right to acquire new shares for a nominal cost, thereby significantly diluting the ownership interest of the acquiring person. On March 11, 2020, the Board approved an extension of the original five-year term of the Rights Plan until May 5, 2023, or until the Board determines that the plan is no longer needed, whichever comes first. Subsequently, shareholders ratified the Board’s decision to extend the Rights Plan at the Company’s 2020 annual meeting of shareholders.

On January 3, 2018, the Board approved a waiver of the 4.9% ownership limitation with respect to Hunt, increasing the limitation to 9.9% of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares in any rolling 12-month period without causing a triggering event.

At June 30, 2020, the Company had two shareholders, including one of its executive officers, Michael L. Falcone, who held greater than a 4.9% interest in the Company. On March 11, 2020, the Board named Mr. Falcone an exempted person in accordance with the Rights Plan for open-market share purchases of up to an additional 7,500 common shares, to be completed by December 31, 2020, with the Board reserving all its rights under the Rights Plan for any subsequent purchase. As a result of the Board’s action, purchases made by Mr. Falcone up to the authorized 7,500 common shares would not be a triggering event for purposes of the Rights Plan if purchased prior to December 31, 2020.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

The preparation of our consolidated financial statements is based on the application of GAAP, which requires us to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and classification of the amounts in our consolidated financial statements. These estimates and assumptions require us to make difficult, complex and subjective judgments involving matters that are inherently uncertain. We base our accounting estimates and assumptions on historical experience and on judgments that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances known to us at the time. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates. We applied our critical accounting policies and estimation methods consistently in all material respects and for all periods presented and have discussed those policies with our Audit Committee.

We evaluate our critical accounting estimates and judgments required by our policies on an ongoing basis and update them as necessary based on changing conditions. Management has discussed any significant changes in judgments and assumptions in applying our critical accounting policies with the Audit Committee of our Board. See Part I, Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in our 2019 Annual Report for a discussion of the risks associated with the need for management to make judgments and estimates in applying our accounting policies and methods. We have identified three of our accounting policies as critical because they involve significant judgments and assumptions about highly complex and inherently uncertain matters, and the use of reasonably different estimates and assumptions could have a material impact on our reported results of operations or financial condition. These policies govern:

Income taxes;
fair value measurement of financial instruments; and
consolidation.

See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations-Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates” in our 2019 Annual Report for a discussion of these critical accounting policies and estimates.

USE OF NON-GAAP MEASURES

We present certain non-GAAP financial measures that supplement the financial measures we disclose that are calculated under GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures are those that include or exclude certain items that are otherwise excluded or included, respectively, from the most directly comparable measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. The non-GAAP financial measures that we disclose are not intended as a substitute for GAAP financial measures and may not be defined or calculated the same way as similar non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies.  

Adjusted Book Value represents Book Value reduced by the carrying value of the Company’s DTAs. We believe this measure is useful to investors in assessing the Company’s underlying fundamental performance and trends in our business because it eliminates potential volatility in results brought on by tax considerations in a given year. As a result, reporting upon, and measuring changes in, Adjusted Book Value enables for a better comparison of period-to-period operating performance.

Adjusted Book Value per common share represents Adjusted Book Value at the period end divided by the common shares outstanding at the period end.  

Management intends to continually evaluate the usefulness, relevance, limitations and calculations of our reported non-GAAP performance measures to determine how best to provide relevant information to the public.

Table 10 provides reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures that are included in this Report to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

Note 1— Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Organization

MMA Capital Holdings, Inc. focuses on infrastructure-related investments that generate positive environmental and social impacts and deliver attractive risk-adjusted total returns to our shareholders, with an emphasis on debt associated with infrastructure including renewable energy projects. Unless the context otherwise requires, and when used in these Notes, the “Company,” “MMA,” “we,” “our” or “us” refers to MMA Capital Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiaries. We were originally organized as a Delaware limited liability company in 1996, converted to a Delaware corporation on January 1, 2019, and are externally managed by Hunt Investment Management, LLC (our “External Manager”), an affiliate of Hunt Companies, Inc. (Hunt Companies, Inc. and its affiliates are hereinafter referred to as “Hunt”).

Our current objective is to produce attractive risk adjusted returns by investing in the large, growing and fragmented renewable energy market in the United States (“U.S”). We believe that we are well positioned to take advantage of these and other investment opportunities because of our External Manager’s origination network built off of extensive relationships and credit expertise gathered through years of experience. We also seek to increase the Company’s return on equity by prudently deploying debt and recycling equity out of lower yielding investments that are unrelated to renewable energy and other infrastructure projects.

In addition to renewable energy investments, we continue to own a limited number of bond investments and real estate-related investments, as well as have subordinated debt with beneficial economic terms. Further, we have significant net operating loss carryforwards (“NOLs”) that may be used to offset future federal income tax obligations, a portion of which were reported as deferred tax assets (“DTAs”) in our Consolidated Balance Sheets at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019. Effective December 31, 2019, we no longer organize our assets and liabilities into discrete portfolios (in each Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that was filed in 2019, assets and liabilities of the Company were allocated to one of two portfolios, “Energy Capital” and “Other Assets and Liabilities”).  

We operate as a single reporting segment.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”).

The Company evaluates subsequent events through the date of filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

Changes in Presentation

We have made certain reclassifications to prior year financial statements in order to enhance their comparability with current year financial statements.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the Company’s financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, commitments and contingencies, and revenues and expenses. Management made estimates in certain areas, including the determination of the Company’s valuation allowance established against its DTAs as well as in the fair value measurement of bonds and derivative instruments. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates.

Table of Contents

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company as well as those entities in which the Company has a controlling financial interest, including wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. Equity investments in unconsolidated entities where the Company has the ability to exercise significant influence over the operations of the entity, but is not considered the primary beneficiary, are accounted for using the equity method of accounting.

Accounting Guidance

Adoption of Accounting Standards

Accounting for Financial Instruments

In March 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2017-08, “Receivables – Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs (Subtopic 310-20): Premium Amortization on Purchased Callable Debt Securities.” This guidance amends the amortization period for certain callable debt securities held at a premium, shortening the period to the earliest call date. We adopted this new guidance on its effective date of January 1, 2019. Upon adoption of this guidance, the Company assessed that certain of our bond investments were being held at a premium resulting in a reduction in amortization periods used for interest income recognition. Accordingly, during the first quarter of 2019, the Company recognized a cumulative effect adjustment of $0.3 million charge to retained earnings.

Accounting for Income Taxes

In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-02, “Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income.” This guidance permits companies to reclassify stranded tax effects caused by the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (the “Tax Act”) from AOCI to retained earnings and also requires new disclosures. We adopted this guidance on its effective date of January 1, 2019. The adoption of this guidance did not impact the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets, Consolidated Statements of Operations, Consolidated Statements of Equity or Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows as of the adoption date.

Accounting for Stock Compensation

In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-07, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting.” This guidance expands the scope of ASC Topic 718 to include all share-based payment arrangements related to the acquisition of goods and services from both nonemployees and employees. We adopted this new guidance on its effective date of January 1, 2019. The adoption of this guidance did not impact the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets, Consolidated Statements of Operations, Consolidated Statements of Equity or Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows as of the adoption date.

Accounting for Financial Instruments – Fair Value Measurement

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework – Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement.” This guidance eliminates certain disclosure requirements for fair value measurements, requires public entities to disclose certain new information and modifies some disclosure requirements. We adopted this guidance on its effective date of January 1, 2020. The adoption of this guidance did not impact the Company’s Balance Sheets, Consolidated Statements of Operations, Consolidated Statements of Equity or Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows as of the adoption date.

Accounting for Financial Instruments – Rate Reform

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-04, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting.” This guidance is elective and is provided for contract modifications that meet certain Codification topics and subtopics. The optional amendment of this new guidance is effective March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. We did not make any elections provided by this new guidance and, therefore, the

35

Table of Contents

adoption of these accounting principles did not impact the Company’s Balance Sheets, Consolidated Statements of Operations, Consolidated Statements of Equity or Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows as of the adoption date.

Issued Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted

Accounting for Financial Instruments – Credit Losses

In November 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-10, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326), Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815) and Leases (Topic 842): Effective Dates.” This guidance gives private companies, not-for-profit organizations, and certain smaller reporting companies additional time to implement FASB standards on credit losses, leases, derivatives and hedging and intangible-goodwill and other (ASC 350). Because the Company is a smaller reporting company the following “credit loss” ASUs will become effective for the Company on January 1, 2023. We are currently evaluating the potential impact of the new guidance on our consolidated financial statements.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments Improvements.” This guidance is intended to reduce the complexity of U.S. GAAP by decreasing the number of credit impairment models that entities use to account for debt instruments. This guidance establishes an impairment methodology that reflects lifetime expected credit losses rather than incurred losses. This guidance requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates. This new guidance is effective on January 1, 2023, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the potential impact of the new guidance on our consolidated financial statements.

In April 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-04, “Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and Topic 825, Financial Instruments.” This guidance is intended to clarify aspects of accounting for credit losses, hedging activities, and financial instruments. This new guidance is effective on January 1, 2023, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the potential impact of the new guidance on our consolidated financial statements.

In May 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-05, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Targeted Transition Relief.” This guidance provides transition relief for entities adopting ASU 2016-13. This guidance allows entities to elect the fair value options on certain financial instruments. This new guidance is effective on January 1, 2023, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the potential impact of the new guidance on our consolidated financial statements.

In November 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-11, “Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses.” This guidance amends certain aspects of the FASB’s new credit losses standard, including an amendment requiring entities to include certain expected recoveries in the amortized cost basis in the allowance for credit losses for purchased credit deteriorated assets. This new guidance is effective on January 1, 2023, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the potential impact of the new guidance on our consolidated financial statements.

In February 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-02, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326) and Leases (Topic 842): Amendments to SEC Paragraphs Pursuant to SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 119 and Update to SEC Section on Effective Date Related to Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) (SEC Update).” This guidance updates certain SEC guidance in the Codification for the issuance of SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin 119 and effective date related to the leases standard. This new guidance is effective upon issuance on February 6, 2020. However, because the Company is a smaller reporting company the ASU will become effective for the Company on January 1, 2023. We are currently evaluating the potential impact of this new guidance on our consolidated financial statements.

Accounting for Financial Instruments – General

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-03, “Codification Improvements to Financial Instruments.” This guidance amends certain topics including fair value option disclosures and credit losses. This guidance is effective upon issuance on March 9, 2020 for some topics and on January 1, 2023 for topics relating to credit loss. The adoption of this guidance that is effective upon issuance did not impact the Company’s Balance Sheets, Consolidated Statements of Operations, Consolidated Statements of Equity or Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. For those aspects of the new guidance that

36

Table of Contents

are not effective until January 1, 2023, we are evaluating the potential impact of the new guidance on our consolidated financial statements.

Accounting for Income Taxes

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes.” This guidance eliminates certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740. This new guidance is effective for us on January 1, 2021, with early adoption permitted. We are evaluating the potential impact of the new guidance on our consolidated financial statements.

Note 2—Investments in Debt Securities

At June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company’s investments in debt securities consist of one subordinated multifamily tax-exempt mortgage revenue bond and one tax-exempt infrastructure bond. These investments are classified as available-for-sale for reporting purposes and are measured on a fair value basis in our Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Multifamily tax-exempt bonds are issued by state and local governments or their agencies or authorities to finance affordable multifamily rental housing. Generally, the only source of security on these bonds is a mortgage on the underlying property. The Company’s non-amortizing subordinated cash flow bond principal is due in full in November 2044.

The Company’s infrastructure bond financed the development of infrastructure for a mixed-use town center development in Spanish Fort, Alabama and is secured by incremental tax revenues generated from the development and its landowners (this investment is hereinafter referred to as our “Infrastructure Bond”). At June 30, 2020, the Company’s Infrastructure Bond amortizes on a scheduled basis and has a stated maturity date of December 2048.

The following tables provide information about the unpaid principal balance (“UPB”), amortized cost, gross unrealized gains and fair value (“FV”) associated with the Company’s investments in bonds that are classified as available-for-sale:

Investments Related to the Solar Ventures

At June 30, 2020, we were a 50% investor member in the renewable joint ventures in which we invest though we may periodically have a minority economic interest as a result of non-pro rata capital contributions made by our capital partner pursuant to a non-pro-rata funding agreement between the Company and our capital partner. Distributions from such ventures are generally made in proportion to the members’ respective economic interests but may be made disproportionately to our capital partner, when our capital partner has made non-pro rata capital contributions, until such time that the amount of equity invested by the Company and its capital partner have come back into equal balance. At June 30, 2020, the Company held 44.2%, 50.0% and 43.6% in Solar Construction Lending, LLC (“SCL”), Solar Permanent Lending, LLC (“SPL”), Solar Development Lending, LLC (“SDL”), respectively, and was the sole member in Renewable Energy Lending, LLC (“REL”), respectively (collectively referred to as the “Solar Ventures”).

At June 30, 2020, the carrying value of the Company’s equity investments in SCL, SPL and SDL was $255.2 million, $0 and $107.8 million, respectively. None of these investees were assessed to constitute a Variable Interest Entity (“VIE”) and the Company accounts for all of these investments using the equity method of accounting. At June 30, 2020, these joint ventures had $426.7 million of unfunded loan commitments that required borrowers to meet various conditions set forth in governing loan agreements in order for funding to occur. The unfunded loan commitments that qualified for funding, were anticipated to be funded primarily by capital within the joint ventures through a combination of existing loan redemptions and idle capital. To the extent capital within the joint ventures is not sufficient to meet their funding obligations additional capital contributions by the members would be required.

38

Table of Contents

During the second quarter of 2020, the Company and its capital partner in SCL and SDL funded various non-pro rata capital calls pursuant to which our capital partner contributed $63.5 million of $72.9 million in SCL capital calls and $4.5 million of $4.5 million in SDL capital calls, while the Company contributed the balance. In addition, in accordance with a non-pro rata funding agreement between the Company and our capital partner, our capital partner in SCL and SDL received distributions of $45.0 million and $10.6 million, respectively, while the Company received $9.4 million of distributions from SDL. As a consequence of these non-pro rata capital contributions and distributions during the second quarter of 2020, our economic interest in SCL and SDL decreased in percentage terms from 44.5% and 44.5% in SCL and SDL, respectively, at March 31, 2020.

The Company paid $5.1 million for the buyout of our prior investment partner’s ownership interest in REL, on June 1, 2018, which was allocated to the net assets acquired based upon their relative fair values. This allocation resulted in a cumulative basis adjustment of $4.5 million to the Company’s investments that is amortized over the remaining investment period of SCL. For the three months ended June 30, 2020 and June 30, 2019, the amortization expense related to the Company’s basis difference was $0.2 million and $0.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and June 30, 2019, respectively. At June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the unamortized balance of the Company’s basis difference was $2.7 million and $3.1 million, respectively.

Net fair value gains and net fair value losses related to funded loans that were recognized during the six months ended June 30, 2020 and June 30, 2019, respectively, were immaterial.

Investments in U.S. Real Estate Partnerships

At June 30, 2020, the $10.1 million reported carrying value of investments in U.S. real estate partnerships represented the Company’s 80% ownership interest in a joint venture that owns and operates a mixed-use town center and undeveloped land parcels in Spanish Fort, Alabama (“SF Venture”). Based upon the venture’s operating agreement, the Company has the right to a preferred return on its unreturned capital contributions with the exception of such contributions that have been contributed for the payment of undeveloped land license fees, which have a lower priority of repayment; as well as the right to share in excess cash flows of the real estate venture. As of June 30, 2020, the Company held an 80% economic interest based upon the partnership’s distribution waterfall. This entity was determined not to be a VIE because decision-

39

Table of Contents

making rights are shared equally among its members. Accordingly, the Company accounts for this investment using the equity method of accounting.

At June 30, 2020, our equity investment in the SF Venture was determined to be other-than-temporarily impaired due to the downturn in the economy that stemmed from the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) pandemic. In this regard, the Company adjusted the carrying value of such investment to its fair value as of such reporting date and recognized a $9.0 million impairment loss in our Consolidated Statements of Operations during the second quarter of 2020.

Investment in SAWHF

SAWHF was determined not to be a VIE, and therefore, the Company accounts for this investment using the equity method of accounting. At June 30, 2020, the carrying value of the Company’s 11.85% equity investment in SAWHF was $2.0 million, which reflects a $5.7 million decline from December 31, 2019, due to: (i) a distribution from SAWHF of 7.2 million shares of a residential real estate investment trust (“REIT”) listed on the Johannesburg Stock Exchange (“JSE”) and whose carrying value is classified within “Other Assets” in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets; (ii) investment dispositions; and (iii) foreign currency translation losses that were attributable to the weakening of the rand against the U.S. dollar during the first six months of 2020. See Note 5, “Other Assets,” for more information regarding the distributed REIT shares held by the Company.

The Company’s investments include the Company’s REO, which consists of a parcel of land that is currently in the process of being developed. During the first six months of 2020, the Company invested $6.1 million in additional land improvements that were capitalized as part of the carrying value of such investment. Since REO has not been placed in service, no depreciation expense was recognized in connection with this land investment for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2020 and June 30, 2019, nor were any impairment losses recognized by the Company during these periods in connection with REO.

Debt Issuance Costs

During the first quarter of 2020, the Company incurred, but deferred in the Consolidated Balance Sheets, $0.5 million of additional debt issuance costs in connection with the execution by MMA Energy Holdings, LLC (“MEH” or “Borrower”), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, of a credit agreement for a revolving credit facility with various lenders. These additional costs were due to the joinder of an additional lender and an increase in commitment by one of the existing lenders. These costs are being amortized ratably over the three-year term of the revolving credit facility. During the three months and six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company recognized $0.3 million and $0.5 million of interest expense in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations related to the amortization of debt issuance costs for the revolving credit facility. At June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the unamortized balance of debt issuance costs was $2.6 million and $2.7 million, respectively. See Note 6, “Debt,” for more information.

Revolving Credit Facility Debt Obligations

On September 19, 2019, MEH entered into a $125.0 million (the “Facility Amount”) revolving credit agreement with various lenders. During the first quarter of 2020, the maximum Facility Amount increased to $175.0 million and the committed amount of the revolving credit facility increased from $100.0 million to $120.0 million upon the joinder of an additional lender and an increase in commitment by one of the existing lenders.

Obligations associated with the revolving credit facility are guaranteed by the Company and are secured by specified assets of the Borrower and a pledge of all of the Company’s equity interest in the Borrower, which holds the equity interests in the Solar Ventures, through pledge and security documentation. Availability and amounts advanced under the revolving credit facility are subject to compliance with a borrowing base comprised of assets that comply with certain eligibility criteria, and includes late-stage development, construction and permanent loans to finance renewable energy projects and cash.

The revolving credit facility contains affirmative and negative covenants binding on the Borrower that are customary for credit facilities of this type. Additionally, the credit agreement includes collateral performance tests and the following financial covenants of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries: minimum debt service coverage ratio, maximum debt to net worth, minimum consolidated net worth and minimum consolidated net income.

Borrowing under the revolving credit facility bears interest at the one-month London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”), adjusted for statutory reserve requirements (subject to a 1.5% floor), plus a fixed spread of 2.75% per annum. At June 30, 2020, the LIBOR base rate plus the fixed spread was 4.25%. At June 30, 2020, the weighted-average effective interest rate of the Company’s obligation was 5.5%. The Borrower has also agreed to pay certain customary fees and expenses and to provide certain indemnities. In certain circumstances where the interest rate is unable to be determined, including in the event LIBOR ceases to be published, the administrative agent to the credit agreement will select a new rate in its reasonable judgment, including any adjustment to the replacement rate to reflect a different credit spread. The maturity date of the credit agreement is September 19, 2022, subject to a 12-month extension solely to allow refinancing or orderly repayment of the facility.  

At June 30, 2020, the UPB and carrying value of amounts borrowed from the revolving credit facility was $110.0 million. The Company recognized $1.6 million and $2.9 million of related interest expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively.

Notes Payable and Other Debt

At June 30, 2020, the UPB and carrying value of notes payable and other debt that was used to finance the Company’s 11.85% ownership interest in SAWHF was $4.3 million and $4.2 million, respectively. This debt, which is denominated in South African rand, has a contractual maturity date of September 8, 2020, and requires the Company to pay its counterparty a rate equal to the Johannesburg Interbank Agreed Rate (“JIBAR”) plus a fixed spread of 5.15%. At June 30, 2020, the JIBAR base rate was 3.9% and this debt obligation’s weighted-average effective interest rate, which is recalculated over the life of the debt instrument when JIBAR resets and incorporates the impact of the unamortized balance of debt issuance costs into its derivation, was 14.6%.

At June 30, 2020, the UPB and carrying value of notes payable and other debt obligations to the Morrison Grove Management, LLC principals (“MGM Principals”) was $4.5 million. This debt bears interest at 5.0%. The $3.0 million debt obligation amortizes over its contractual life and is due to mature on January 1, 2026. The $1.5 million debt obligation pays interest only until March 31, 2026 and then amortizes in three equal installments until its maturity date of January 1, 2027.

On June 1, 2020, the Company entered into a $10.0 million construction loan that is secured by our direct investment in real estate that is in the process of development. The initial advance from this debt was $9.3 million and $0.5 million of capacity that has been reserved for interest payments. The total amount advanced by the lender shall not exceed 65% of the value of pledged real estate and 75% of the development allowable hard costs incurred by borrower. The loan is prepayable at any time without penalty, with all net proceeds realized from the sale of any portion of the real property required to be used to repay the outstanding UPB of the loan. Construction draws may not exceed a total principal sum of $11.1 million over the life of the facility, with the maximum outstanding UPB at any point in time not to exceed $10.0

million. The contractual maturity date of this facility is June 1, 2023, although the facility is subject to three extension options (at the discretion of the borrower and lender): (i) the first extension term would expire on November 1, 2023; (ii) the second extension term would expire on May 1, 2024 and (iii) the final amortized term would expire three years after the initial term, first extension term and second extension term, as applicable. Amounts drawn from this debt facility are repayable on an interest only basis at a rate of 4.85% with all outstanding principal due at maturity during the initial term, first extension term and second extension term. However, during the final extension term the debt bears interest at a rate of three-month LIBOR plus 3.0% per annum, subject to a 5.0% floor with principal amortization required monthly over the three year extension term. Obligations associated with this debt are guaranteed by the Company. At June 30, 2020, the UPB and carrying value of this debt obligation was $9.3 million and $9.1 million, respectively.    

Asset Related Debt

Asset related debt is debt that finances interest-bearing assets of the Company. The interest expense associated with this debt is included within “Net interest income” on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Bond Related Debt

On June 5, 2020, the Company entered into a total return swap (“TRS”) agreement related to our Infrastructure Bond. The Company conveyed its interest in such bond investment to a counterparty in exchange for cash consideration while simultaneously executing a TRS agreement with the same counterparty for purposes of retaining the economic risks and returns of such investments. The conveyance of the Company’s interest in such bond was treated for reporting purposes as a secured borrowing while the TRS agreement that was executed simultaneously with such conveyance did not receive financial statement recognition since such derivative instrument caused the conveyance of the Company’s interest in this bond not to qualify as a sale for reporting purposes.

At June 30, 2020, under the terms of this TRS agreement, which has a maturity date of June 6, 2022, the counterparty is required to pay the Company an amount equal to the interest payments received on the underlying bond (UPB of $26.7 million with a pay rate of 6.3% at June 30, 2020). The Company is required to pay the counterparty a rate that is based upon the Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association (“SIFMA”) index rate, subject to a 0.5% floor, plus a spread of 2.0% (notional amount of $23.5 million with an average pay rate of 2.5% at June 30, 2020). Additionally, as required by the TRS agreement, the Company pledged cash collateral of $10.0 million representing 37.5% of the referenced bond’s UPB. Furthermore, under the terms of the TRS, the Company’s TRS counterparty is entitled to share in 10% of the increase in fair value, if any, of the conveyed Infrastructure Bond between the trade and termination dates of the TRS agreement. For reporting purposes, this provision is treated as a freestanding derivative instrument that is reported on a fair value basis.

Non-bond Related Debt

During the first quarter of 2020, the $3.5 million debt obligation to MGM Principals was reclassified to Other Debt upon the full repayment of the Hunt Note.

Letters of Credit

The Company had no letters of credit outstanding at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

Note 7—Derivative Instruments

The Company uses derivative instruments for various purposes. Pay-fixed interest rate swaps, interest rate basis swaps and interest rate caps are used to manage interest rate risk. Foreign currency forward exchange agreements are used to manage currency risk associated with the financing of our SAWHF equity investment.

Derivative instruments that are recognized in the Consolidated Balance Sheets are measured on a fair value basis. Because the Company does not designate any of its derivative instruments as fair value or cash flow hedges, changes in fair value of these instruments are recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Operations as a component of “Net losses on derivatives.” Derivative assets are presented in the Consolidated Balance Sheets as a component of “Other assets” and derivative liabilities are presented in the Consolidated Balance Sheets as a component of “Other liabilities.”

Note 8—Fair Value

We use fair value measurements to record fair value adjustments to certain assets and liabilities and to determine fair value disclosures. Assets and liabilities recorded at fair value on a recurring basis are presented in the first table below in this Note. From time to time, we may be required to measure at fair value other assets on a nonrecurring basis such as certain loans held for investment or investments in partnerships. These nonrecurring fair value adjustments typically involve application of lower-of-cost-or-market accounting or write-downs of individual assets.

Fair Value Hierarchy

The Company measures the fair value of its assets and liabilities based upon their contractual terms and using relevant market information. A description of the methods used by the Company to measure fair value is provided below. Fair value measurements are subjective in nature, involve uncertainties and often require the Company to make significant judgments. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the Company’s measurement of fair value.

GAAP establishes a three-level hierarchy that prioritizes inputs into the valuation techniques used to measure fair value. Fair value measurements associated with assets and liabilities are categorized into one of the following levels of the hierarchy based upon how observable the valuation inputs are that are used in the fair value measurements.

Level 1:  Valuation is based upon quoted prices in active markets for identical instruments.
Level 2:  Valuation is based upon quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which significant inputs or significant value drivers are observable in active markets.
Level 3:  Valuation is generated from techniques that use significant assumptions that are not observable in the market. These unobservable assumptions reflect estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

Recurring Changes in Fair Value

The following tables present the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis by instrument type and based upon the level of the fair value hierarchy within which fair value measurements of our assets and liabilities are categorized:

Fair Value Measurements of Instruments That Are Classified as Level 3

Significant unobservable inputs presented in the tables that follow are those we consider significant to the fair value of the Level 3 asset or liability. We consider unobservable inputs to be significant if, by their exclusion, the fair value of the Level 3 asset or liability would be impacted by a predetermined percentage change, or based on qualitative factors, such as nature of the instrument, type of valuation technique used and the significance of the unobservable inputs relative to other inputs used within the valuation. Following is a description of the significant unobservable inputs that are referenced in the tables below:

Market yield – is a market rate of return used to calculate the present value of future expected cash flows to arrive at the fair value of an instrument. The market yield typically consists of a benchmark rate component and a risk premium component. The benchmark rate component, for example, Municipal Market Data or SIFMA index rates, is generally observable within the market and is necessary to appropriately reflect the time value of money. The risk premium component reflects the amount of compensation market participants require due to the uncertainty inherent in the instrument’s cash flows resulting from risks such as credit and liquidity. A significant decrease in this input in isolation would result in a significantly higher fair value measurement.
Capitalization rate – is calculated as the ratio between the NOI produced by a commercial real estate property and the price for the asset. A significant decrease in this input in isolation would result in a significantly higher fair value measurement.
NOI annual growth rate – is the amount of future growth in NOI that the Company projects each property to generate on an annual basis over the 10-year projection period. These annual growth estimates take into account the Company’s expectation about the future increases, or decreases, in rental rates, vacancy rates, bad debt expense, concessions and operating expenses for each property. Generally, an increase in NOI will result in an increase to the fair value of the property.
Valuation technique weighting factors – represent factors that, in the aggregate, sum to 100% and that are individually applied to two or more indications of fair value considering the reasonableness of the range indicated by those results.
Contract or bid prices – represents a third-party sale agreement or purchase offer executed in connection with the pending sale of an affordable housing property that secures one of the Company’s bond investments. In instances where multiple purchase offers have been received an average of the offers received is utilized. Estimated

Table of Contents

proceeds from the sale, or average offers, of such property that are determined to be allocable to a bond investment are used to measure the investment’s fair value at a given reporting date.

The tables that follow provide quantitative information about the valuation techniques and the range and weighted-average of significant unobservable inputs used in the valuation of substantially all of our Level 3 assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis for which we use an internal model to measure fair value. The significant unobservable inputs for Level 3 assets and liabilities that are valued using dealer pricing are not included in the tables, as the specific inputs applied are not provided by the dealer.

Nonrecurring Changes in Fair Value

At June 30, 2020, the Company’s equity investment in the SF Venture was assessed to be other-than-temporarily impaired. Consequently, the Company adjusted the carrying value of such investment to its fair value as of such reporting date, which was estimated by determining the Company’s share of the net asset value (“NAV”) of the SF Venture at June 30, 2020, where the assets and liabilities of the SF Venture were adjusted to their fair values as of such reporting date and a discount for lack of marketability was then applied to the Company’s share of the measured NAV of the SF Venture. The Company recognized a $9.0 million impairment loss in adjusting this investment’s carrying value to its measured fair value. Because of the limited observability of certain valuation inputs that were used to measure the fair value of this equity investment, it was classified as level 3 in the fair value hierarchy at June 30, 2020. There were no nonrecurring fair value adjustments recognized by the Company during the three months and six months ended June 30, 2019.

Additional Disclosures Related To The Fair Value of Financial Instruments That Are Not Carried On The Consolidated Balance Sheets at Fair Value

Valuation Techniques

Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash – The carrying value of these assets approximated fair value due to the short-term nature and negligible credit risk inherent in them.

Loans held for investment – Fair value is measured using a discounted cash flow methodology pursuant to which contractual payments are discounted based upon market yields for similar credit risks.

53

Table of Contents

Notes payable and other debt – Fair value is measured by discounting contractual cash flows using a market rate of interest or by estimating the fair value of the collateral supporting a debt arrangement, taking into account credit risk.

Subordinated debt – Fair value is measured by discounting projected contractual payments of principal and interest using the instrument’s estimated market yield, which was 12.5% and 11.7% at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. As outlined in the table above, at June 30, 2020, the aggregate fair value was measured at $37.3 million. At June 30, 2020, the measured fair value of this debt would have been $49.1 million and $29.5 million had its market yield been 9.0% and 16.0%, respectively. The measured fair value of this debt is inherently judgmental and based on management’s assumption of market yields. There can be no assurance that the Company could repurchase the remaining subordinated debt at the measured fair values reflected in the table above or that the debt would trade at that price.

Revolving credit facility debt obligations – Fair value of these debt obligations is measured by discounting projected contractual payments of interest and principal using an estimated market yield.

Note 9—Guarantees and Collateral

Guarantees

The Company has guaranteed the performance of payment obligations of certain of its subsidiaries under various debt agreements to third parties. The Company has guaranteed all MFH payment obligations and performance under the terms of the Company’s subordinated debt. However, the Company’s guarantee of the subordinated debt is subordinated to repayment of any senior debt of the Company. Additionally, contemporaneously with the execution of the revolving credit facility, the Company agreed to guarantee all payment and performance obligations of MEH under the credit agreement to the lenders. Furthermore, the Company agreed to guarantee all payment and performance obligations of the borrower associated with financing obtained in the second quarter of 2020 related to our direct investment in real estate that is in process of development. Currently, the Company expects that it will not need to make any payments under these guarantees.

Note 10—Commitments and Contingencies

Operating Leases

The Company had no future rental commitments at June 30, 2020.

Litigation and Other Legal Matters

In the ordinary course of business, the Company and its subsidiaries are named from time to time as defendants in various litigation matters or may have other claims made against them. These legal proceedings may include claims for substantial or indeterminate compensatory, consequential or punitive damages, or for injunctive or declaratory relief.

The Company establishes reserves for litigation matters or other loss contingencies when a loss is probable and can be reasonably estimated. Once established, reserves may be adjusted when new information is obtained. At June 30, 2020, we had no significant litigation matters and we were not aware of any other claims that we believe would have a material adverse impact on our financial condition or results of operations.

Other Risks and Uncertainties

We are monitoring the economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the performance of our investments and underlying real estate values. Although we have not recognized impairment charges other than that for the SF Venture discussed above, we believe it is reasonably possible that we may be required to recognize one or more material impairment charges over the next 12 months, particularly if underlying economic conditions continue to deteriorate. Because any such impairment charge will be based on future circumstances, we cannot predict at this time whether we will be required to recognize any further impairment charges and, if required, the timing or amount of any impairment charge.

With respect to recognized DTA, the Company’s assessment of the likelihood of realizing tax benefits related to DTAs recognized in the fourth quarter of 2019 did not change in the second quarter of 2020. That is, while COVID-19 caused a sharp deterioration in macro-economic conditions, the potential amount and permanence of long-term impacts of those conditions on the Company’s business was uncertain at June 30, 2020. Consequently, the Company did not make an adjustment in the second quarter of 2020 to the carrying value of DTAs that were recognized at December 31, 2019. Nonetheless, given such uncertainty and other factors, we believe it is reasonably possible that, within the next 12 months, a change to the carrying value of recognized DTAs that is material to the Company’s financial statements could be recognized. However, the exact timing and amount of loss recognition depends upon future circumstances and, therefore, cannot be predicted at this time.

Common Shares

Effective May 5, 2015, the Company adopted a Tax Benefits Rights Agreement (the “Rights Plan”) to help preserve the Company’s net operating losses (“NOLs”). In connection with adopting the Rights Plan, the Company declared a distribution of one right per common share to shareholders of record as of May 15, 2015. The rights do not trade apart from the current common shares until the distribution date, as defined in the Rights Plan. Under the Rights Plan, the acquisition by an investor (or group of related investors) of greater than a 4.9% stake in the Company, could result in all existing shareholders other than the new 4.9% holder having the right to acquire new shares for a nominal cost, thereby significantly diluting the ownership interest of the acquiring person. On March 11, 2020, the Board approved an extension of the original five-year term of the Rights Plan until May 5, 2023, or until the Board determines the plan is no longer required, whichever comes first. Subsequently, shareholders ratified the Board’s decision to extend the Rights Plan at the Company’s 2020 annual meeting of shareholders.

On January 3, 2018, the Board approved a waiver of the 4.9% ownership limitation for Hunt, increasing this limitation to the acquisition of 9.9% of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares in any rolling 12-month period without causing a triggering event.

At June 30, 2020, the Company had two shareholders, including one of its executive officers, Michael L. Falcone, who held greater than a 4.9% interest in the Company. On March 11, 2020, the Board named Mr. Falcone an exempted person in accordance with the Rights Plan for open-market share purchases of up to an additional 7,500 common shares, to be completed by December 31, 2020, with the Board reserving all its rights under the Rights Plan for any subsequent purchases. As a result of the Board’s action, purchases made by Mr. Falcone up to the authorized 7,500 common shares would not be a triggering event for purposes of the Rights Plan if purchased prior to December 31, 2020.

Employees’ Stock-Based Compensation Plans

At June 30, 2020, there were 571,066 share awards available to be issued under Employees’ Stock-Based Compensation Plans. While each existing Employees’ Stock-Based Compensation Plan has been approved by the Board, not all of the Plans have been approved by the Company’s shareholders. The Plans that have not been approved by the Company’s shareholders are currently restricted to the issuance of only stock options. As a result, of the 571,066 shares available under the plans, 73,556 are available to be issued in the form of either stock options or shares, while the remaining 497,510 shares available for issuance must be issued in the form of stock options. Since the Company has no employees, the Company does not expect to issue any of these shares or options.

Non-Employee Directors’ Stock-Based Compensation Plans

The Non-employee Directors’ Stock-based Compensation Plans authorize a total of 1,130,000 shares for issuance, of which 376,679 were available to be issued at June 30, 2020. The Non-employee Directors’ Stock-based Compensation Plans provide for grants of non-qualified common stock options, common shares, restricted shares and deferred shares.

The Non-employee Directors’ Stock-based Compensation Plans provide for directors to be paid $120,000 per year for their services. In addition, the Chairman receives an additional $20,000 per year, the Audit Committee Chair receives an additional $15,000 per year and the other committee chairs receive an additional $10,000 per year. Under this plan, 50% of such compensation is paid in cash and the remaining sum through common share-based grants.

The table below summarizes non-employee director compensation, including cash, vested options and common and deferred shares, for services rendered for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and June 30, 2019. The directors are fully vested in the deferred shares at the grant date.

External Management Fees and Expense Reimbursements

On January 8, 2018, the Company sold certain businesses and assets (the “Disposition”) and entered into the Management Agreement. At the time of the Disposition, all employees of the Company were hired by the External Manager. In consideration for the management services being provided by the External Manager, the Company pays the External Manager a base management fee, which is payable quarterly in arrears in an amount equal to (i) 0.50% of the Company’s first $500 million of common shareholders’ equity determined in accordance with GAAP in the U.S. on a fully diluted basis, adjusted to exclude the effect of (a) the carrying value of the Company’s DTAs, and (b) any gains or losses attributable to noncontrolling interests (“GAAP Common Shareholders’ Equity”); and (ii) 0.25% of the Company’s GAAP Common Shareholders’ Equity in excess of $500 million. Additionally, the Company agreed to pay the External Manager an incentive fee equal to 20% of the total annual return of diluted common shareholders’ equity per share in excess of 7%, which excludes the effects of the Company’s DTAs. The Company also agreed to reimburse the External Manager for certain allocable overhead costs including an allocable share of the costs of (i) noninvestment personnel of the External Manager and an affiliate thereof who spend all or a portion of their time managing the Company’s operations and reporting as a public company (based on their time spent on these matters) and (ii) the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”) based on the percentage of their time spent managing the Company. Reimbursement of compensation-related expenses is, however, subject to an annual cap of $2.5 million through 2019 and $3.5 million thereafter, until the Company’s GAAP common shareholders’ equity exceeds $500 million.

The current term of the Management Agreement extends to December 31, 2022 and automatically renews thereafter for additional two-year terms. Either the Company or the External Manager may, upon written notice, decline to renew or terminate the Management Agreement without cause, effective at the end of the initial term or any renewal term. If the Company declines to renew or terminates the Management Agreement without cause or the External Manager terminates for cause, the Company is required to pay a termination fee to the External Manager equal to three times the sum of the average annual base and incentive management fees, plus one times the sum of the average renewable energy business expense reimbursements and the employee cost reimbursement expense, in each case, during the prior two-year period. The Company may also terminate the Management Agreement for cause. No termination fee is payable upon a termination by the Company for cause or upon a termination by the External Manager without cause.

For the three months and six months ended June 30, 2020 and June 30, 2019, no incentive fee was earned by our External Manager. During the three months ended June 30, 2020 and June 30, 2019, the Company recognized $2.4 million and $2.1 million, respectively, and $5.2 million and $4.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and June 30, 2019, respectively, of management fees and expense reimbursements payable to our External Manager in its Consolidated Statements of Operations. At June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, $2.4 million and $1.2 million, respectively, of management fees and expense reimbursements was payable to the External Manager.

Loans HFI and Investment in Partnerships

As consideration for the Disposition, Hunt agreed to pay the Company $57.0 million and to assume certain liabilities of the Company. The Company provided seller financing through a $57.0 million note receivable from Hunt that had an initial term of seven years, prepayable at any time and bearing interest at the rate of 5% per annum. On October 4, 2018, the Company’s receivable from Hunt increased to $67.0 million as part of Hunt’s election to take assignment of the Company’s agreements to acquire (i) the LIHTC business of Morrison Grove Management and (ii) certain assets pertaining to a specific LIHTC property from affiliates of Morrison Grove Management, LLC (these agreements are collectively referred hereinafter to as the “MGM Agreements”). On December 20, 2019, Hunt prepaid $13.4 million of the note receivable and as a result, the UPB of the note was $53.6 million at December 31, 2019. During the three months and six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company recognized $0.8 million and $1.7 million, respectively, of interest income associated with this note receivable in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. At December 31, 2019, $0.7 million of accrued interest was payable by Hunt. On January 3, 2020, the note receivable was fully repaid.

On April 1, 2019, the Company purchased Hunt’s 30% ownership interest in SDL that pertained to an investment in a specific loan for $11.3 million, which represents the price that was projected to cause the Company and Hunt to achieve the same internal rate of return (“IRR”) on the amount of capital each had invested in the loan for the period of time that each party was invested in the loan. In this regard, upon full repayment of the loan, a post-purchase true-up payment may have been required to be made by one party to the other depending upon the actual IRR achieved by each party on the investment. Due to continuing involvement by Hunt as the transferor, the transfer did not qualify as a purchase for reporting purposes and, as a result, cash consideration paid by the Company was reported as a loan receivable that is secured by the interest in SDL that Hunt conveyed to the Company. On December 20, 2019, the Company and Hunt terminated all obligations relating to the post-purchase true-up payment and, as a result, the Company derecognized this loan receivable and increased its investment in partnership in SDL.  

On December 20, 2019, the Company sold to Hunt a loan and three limited partner interests in partnerships that own affordable housing and in which our ownership interest ranged from 74.25% to 74.92%. This loan had a UPB and carrying value of $1.1 million and $0.3 million, respectively, while the three limited partner interests had a carrying value of $0.9 million at the time of sale. The Company received $3.1 million in sales proceed and recognized $1.9 million of gains in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Investment in Debt Securities

On April 25, 2019, the Company received $13.1 million of net proceeds from the sale of an affordable housing property that secured one of the Company’s non-performing bond investments. Hunt, as bond servicing agent, waived $0.9 million of servicing fees that were otherwise due and payable in priority to the Company’s bond investment. As a result, the Company received $0.9 million of additional bond redemption proceeds that we otherwise would not have received.

Note 14—Segment Information

For a discussion of legal proceedings see Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements – Note 10, “Commitments and Contingencies,” which is incorporated herein by reference.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

In the first quarter of 2020, we supplemented the risk factors described under Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” in the 2019 Annual Report with the additional risk factor set forth below.    

The novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) and actions taken to mitigate its spread and economic impact, or other outbreak of disease or similar public health threat, could adversely impact or cause disruption of our financial condition and results of operations.

The potential impact and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic and actions taken by governmental and public health authorities to mitigate its spread, such as instituting quarantines, travel restrictions and “shelter in place” orders, have led to significant volatility and negative pressure in financial markets, increases in unemployment and reductions in consumer and business spending.

We believe that our ability to operate and our level of business activity has been and is likely to continue to be impacted by the effects of COVID-19 and could in the future be impacted by another pandemic, and that such impacts could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Factors that may adversely impact our financial condition and results of operations related to COVID-19, or potentially another pandemic, include the following:

the availability of permanent loans, tax credit equity and other monetization events that are the primary sources of repayment of loans made by the Solar Ventures may be limited, which could lead to impairment of loans made by the Solar Ventures and we may lose some or all of our investment;
the value of renewable energy infrastructure projects that secure loans made by the Solar Ventures could decline, which would negatively impact the value of loans made by the Solar Ventures, potentially permanently and materially;
the disruption in the credit markets could cause a lack of opportunity for future loans through a reduced pipeline of loans for investment by the Solar Ventures as well as a reduced availability of other infrastructure investments. Additionally, if the Company is unable to fund its share of capital contributions to the Solar Ventures as a result of an inability to access the debt and equity capital markets, or our capital partner becomes unwilling or unable to continue to contribute its share of capital to the Solar Ventures, which could cause the Solar Ventures to default on their lending commitments to their borrowers, which would adversely affect our business, cash flows and financial condition and result in damage to our and our External Manager’s reputation;
if we are unable to access the debt or equity capital markets in order to satisfy financial obligations to our capital partner under various non-pro rata funding agreements, our capital partner may have the right to either (i) cause the Solar Ventures to make special distributions disproportionately to it (without distribution to us) of net cash flow from any capital transactions (subject to limitations provided in such non-pro rata funding agreements) or (ii) enter into a mutually agreeable definitive amendment (to be negotiated in good faith) to the relevant operating agreements of the Solar Ventures reflecting the majority funding position of the Company’s capital partner;  
construction or development of renewable energy or other infrastructure projects that are being or could be financed through loans made by the Company or Solar Ventures may be unable to proceed on a timely basis or at all due to, among other things, government mandated restrictions or moratoriums on construction or the inability to source the necessary construction personnel, equipment or parts;

significant uncertainty and volatility with respect to the current and future values of real estate-related assets as COVID-19 is expected to continue to have a significant impact on local, national and global economies and has resulted in a world-wide economic slowdown. The impact of COVID-19 on our investments is uncertain; however, it is expected to have a negative impact on the overall real estate market. In addition, lower transaction volume may result in less data for assessing real estate values. This increases the risk that our asset values may not reflect the actual realizable value of our underlying properties at any given time, as valuations and appraisals of our properties and real estate-related assets are only estimates of market value as of the end of the period and may not reflect the changes in values resulting from COVID-19. In addition, this impact is occurring rapidly and is not immediately quantifiable. To the extent real estate or other asset values decline after the date we disclose our asset values, whether related to COVID-19 or otherwise, new investors may overpay for their investment in our common stock, which would heighten their risk of loss;
restrictions on business operations and re-openings or an economic downturn is likely to negatively impact the development activity related to our equity investment in the SF Venture. Moreover, revenues generated by tenants of the SF Venture may be reduced or the SF Venture may have to grant concessions to tenants both of which could cause losses related to our equity investment in the SF Venture. These factors led to the impairment of our investment in the SF Venture at June 30, 2020;
should economic conditions further deteriorate and cause declines in the value of our investments that would be assessed to be other-than-temporary in nature, we would recognize additional impairment losses related to such investments;
personnel of our External Manager, including our executive officers and other employees of the External Manager that support our operations may become ill and unavailable; and
third-party vendors we rely on to conduct our business, including vendors that provide IT services, legal and accounting services, or other operational support services may become unable to deliver services or support to the Company.

The rapid development and fluidity of the circumstances resulting from COVID-19 preclude any prediction as to the duration and extent of its adverse impact and makes it more difficult to determine the fair value of investments, especially those that rely on estimates and are inherently judgmental. Nevertheless, COVID-19 and the current financial, economic and capital markets environment, and future developments in these and other areas present material uncertainty and risk with respect to our performance, financial condition, volume of business, results of operations and cash flows.

To the extent COVID-19 adversely affects our business and financial results, it may also have the effect of heightening many of the risk factors included in the 2019 Annual Report, including, but not limited to, those relating to our revolving credit facility, our exposure to changes in interest rates, our exposure to collateral calls associated with agreements we used to hedge interest rate risk, our investments in bonds and real estate and the lack of liquidity related to our non-cash assets.
