CHICAGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Ares Commercial Real Estate Corporation (the “Company,” “ACRE,” “we,” or “our”) (NYSE:ACRE), a specialty finance company primarily engaged in principal lending and mortgage banking of commercial real estate investments, reported net income of $9.0 million or $0.31 per diluted common share for the quarter ended June 30, 2015. In addition, the Company announced that its Board of Directors declared a third quarter 2015 dividend of $0.25 per common share payable on October 15, 2015 to common stockholders of record on September 30, 2015.
“We are pleased to report that our second quarter earnings increased 35% compared to the same period a year ago, driven by growth in both our Principal Lending and Mortgage Banking segments,” said Todd Schuster, President and Chief Executive Officer of ACRE. “We continue to execute well against our goal of expanding earnings with our existing capital base and we have identified additional strategies to further enhance earnings going forward. Given our positive outlook and the breadth and strength of our business, we are significantly increasing our annual earnings guidance range for 2015.”
2015 GUIDANCE UPDATE
For the year ending December 31, 2015, the Company is increasing its estimated net income per diluted common share to be between $1.12 to $1.18.
The Company’s guidance is based upon management’s current expectations regarding (1) the timing and amount of, and returns on, originations in the Principal Lending and Mortgage Banking segments in the Company’s existing pipeline, (2) the timing and amount of repayments in the Principal Lending and Mortgage Banking segments, (3) the availability and cost, including advance rates, of additional debt capital to fund new investments and commitments on existing investments, refinance existing indebtedness and for general corporate working capital purposes, (4) interest rate volatility, (5) change in the fair value of mortgage servicing rights and derivatives held by the Company, (6) taxation associated with the Company’s taxable REIT subsidiaries (“TRS”), including most significantly the TRS that holds the Mortgage Banking segment, (7) changes in the Company’s operating costs and expenses, (8) impact of raising additional debt or equity capital and (9) material acquisitions or dispositions by the Company. The Company’s guidance is also based on current expectations of market conditions, including but not limited to the level of lending and borrowing spreads, commercial real estate loan volumes and government-sponsored enterprise activity and the judgment of the Company’s management team. There is no guarantee or assurance that such activities will occur as expected or at all. The Company’s earnings estimates are forward-looking statements and are subject to risks and other factors described elsewhere in this press release. The Company will discuss the earnings estimates on its July 30, 2015 conference call. Actual events or conditions may differ materially from these assumptions and therefore, actual results may vary significantly.
