DALLAS, Sept. 13, 2022 / — Crossroads Impact Corp (OTCQX: CRSS) (“Crossroads” or the “Company”), a holding company focused on investing in businesses that promote economic vitality and community development, reported financial results for its fiscal third quarter ended July 31, 2022.
During the quarter, Crossroads significantly expanded its balance sheet through two strategic equity investments of $180 million to be funded through Jan. 31, 2023. In addition, the company closed on its $150 million credit facility with Texas Capital Bank. This newly injected debt and equity capital will allow Crossroads to further extend its relationship and joint mission with Enhanced Capital Group to continue to make loans available across the core verticals of climate finance, impact real estate and small business lending to underserved businesses.
On the heels of an eventful second quarter 2022, Crossroads’ third quarter yielded more modest results as we built a strong capital platform to support the $500 million-plus pipeline of environmental and social loans. Total revenue from operations was $13.5 million for the quarter ended July 31, 2022, compared with $487 million for the prior fiscal year’s quarter ended July 31, 2021. This decrease can be attributed to one-time fees revenue from participating in the PPP in 2021.
During the quarter, the company recognized a noncash stock option compensation expense of $4.2 million related to the equity transactions, resulting in a net operating income before taxes and noncontrolling interest of $4,200, compared with $166 million the prior year. Adjusted net operating income after the one-time, noncash charge was $4.2 million. Net earnings per share from operations before taxes and after non-controlling interest for the quarter was a negative 2 cents, adjusted net earnings per share was $0.56 compared to $27.70 for the same period of 2021.
Management Commentary
As we mark the end of our fiscal third quarter in 2022, we celebrate the successful closing of our debt facility and capital raise and the impact loan pipeline. These strategic moves make it an exciting time at Crossroads, one that signals substantial growth of the business ahead. Since its inception just a year ago, as of the close of the third quarter, we have seen $121 million in impact loans and investments. In the third quarter alone, we added $68 million to our portfolio, maintaining our delinquency-free track record. The ripple effect of these loans can be felt deeply within the communities in which their businesses call home. The opportunity to support small businesses throughout a sustained volatile market is a privilege we covet tremendously.
Our mortgage portfolio reached $133 million with a 90-day delinquency rate of 1%. Our PPP loan portfolio balance was $1.2 billion, representing an 80% forgiveness rate with a net margin of 65 basis points and a net contribution of $2.6 million for the quarter. Our impact loan and investment portfolio reached $121.4 million generating interest income of $2.3 million in the quarter and no delinquencies to date.
