TCI Transcontinental Realty Investment Inc

Transcontinental Realty Investors, Inc. (NYSE:TCI) is reporting its results of operations for the quarter ended December 31, 2021. For the three months ended December 31, 2021, we reported net loss attributable to common shares of $8.7 million or $1.01 per diluted share, compared to $1.5 million or $0.17 per diluted share for the same period in 2020.

Financial Highlights

• We collected approximately 97% of our rents for the three months ended December 31, 2021, comprised of approximately 96% from multifamily tenants and approximately 99% from office tenants.

• Total occupancy was 91% at December 31, 2021, which includes 95% at our multifamily properties and 70% at our commercial properties.

• On November 17, 2021, we entered into a Major Decision with Macquarie to engage a broker and initiate a sale of all the properties held by the VAA joint venture. In connection with the sale, VAA will distribute seven of its existing properties to us, and we in turn, will contribute one of our properties into the VAA Portfolio. The remaining forty-five properties will be sold to third party. The Major Decision agreement will expire on August 1, 2022, if the VAA Portfolio has not been sold.

• On January 14, 2022, we sold Toulon, a 240 unit multifamily property in Gautier, Mississippi, for $26.8 million. The proceeds were used to pay off the mortgage note payable on the property and for general corporate purposes.

• On March 3, 2022, we extended our $39.0 million loan on Stanford Center to February 26, 2023.

Financial Results

Rental revenues decreased $9.8 million from $17.4 million for the three months ended December 31, 2020 to $7.6 million for the three months ended December 31, 2021. The decrease in rental revenue is primarily due to the receipts of a $5.9 million lease termination payment at Browning Place in 2020 and a decline in occupancy in our commercial properties.

Net operating loss increased $8.2 million from net operating income of $4.0 million for three months ended December 31, 2020 to net operating loss of $4.2 million for the three months ended December 31, 2021. The increase in net operating loss is primarily due to the lease termination payment at Browning Place in 2020 and an increase in legal fees in 2021.

Net loss attributable to common shares increased $7.3 million from $1.5 million for the three months ended December 31, 2020 to $8.7 million for the three months ended December 31, 2021. The increase in net loss is primarily attributed to the lease termination payment at Browning Place in 2020, an increase in legal fees in 2021 and a decrease in gain on sale of assets offset in part by a decrease in loss on foreign currency transactions in 2021.
