Key Takeaways

  • Positive Sentiment: Fully repaid and delisted the SCCC 7.75% unsecured notes using proceeds from a senior‑secured private placement, revolver availability, and loan repayments, which extended debt duration and preserved liquidity for growth.
  • Negative Sentiment: Non‑performing loans remain elevated at approximately $104.1M gross ($93M net), with the Naples exposure (~$50.4M, ~13% of portfolio) still non‑accrual and weighing on monthly earnings by roughly $450k; a Nov. 7 mediation is a key near‑term catalyst for resolution.
  • Positive Sentiment: Sequential revenue improved to $12.0M in Q3 (up 11.4% QoQ), performing loan yields are about 12.4%, and Shem Creek investments generated $1.1M this quarter, providing attractive double‑digit returns and supporting origination economics.
  • Negative Sentiment: Book value per common share fell to $2.47 (down 2.8% QoQ) and, after $1.1M of Series A preferred dividends and common dividends paid, GAAP net income of $1.0M translated into a small net loss to common, pressuring equity metrics.
  • Neutral Sentiment: Management is converting legacy problem loans into REO (converted ~$10.9M to REO this quarter; REO $18.9M total) and pursuing development via Urbane (Westport, Coconut Grove) to monetize assets, but timing and ultimate recovery remain uncertain.

Armen Kassabian
Armen Kassabian
IR Senior Associate at Sachem Capital Corp

Good morning, and thank you for joining Sachem Capital's Third Quarter 2025 Earnings Conference Call. On the call from Sachem Capital today is Chief Executive Officer John Villano, CPA, and Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer Jeff Walraven. This morning, the company announced its operating and financial results for the quarter ended September 30th, 2025. The press release is posted on the company's website, www.sachemcapital.com. In addition, the company filed its Form 10-Q today, which can be accessed on the company's website as well as the SEC's website at www.sec.gov. As a reminder, remarks made on today's conference call may include forward-looking statements.

These include the risks detailed in our annual Form 10-K and this Form 10-Q, such as those related to non-performing loans, credit losses, and market conditions. We do not undertake any obligation to update our forward-looking statements in light of new information or future events. For a more detailed discussion of the factors that may affect the company's results, please refer to our earnings release for this quarter and to our most recent SEC filings. During this call, the company will be discussing certain non-GAAP financial measures. More information about these non-GAAP financial measures and reconciliations to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are contained in our SEC filings. With that, I'll now turn the call over to John.

John Villano
John Villano
CEO at Sachem Capital Corp

Thank you, and thanks to everyone for joining us today. I will begin by reviewing our operating and portfolio activities for the 3rd quarter and provide an update on our strategic progress. I will then turn the call over to Jeff to discuss our financial results and balance sheet. We will open the call to questions from our analysts. During the quarter, we continued working towards growing our lending platform while taking further steps to strengthen our financial position. Our efforts over the past year to protect our balance sheet have had a meaningful impact on stabilizing our portfolio while avoiding potentially dilutive financings. We are now well-positioned for growth as opportunities arise. Building on the progress made in the 1st half of the year, in the 3rd quarter, we remained focused on strengthening Sachem's balance sheet and improving liquidity.

John Villano
John Villano
CEO at Sachem Capital Corp

During the quarter, we fully repaid and delisted our SCCC 7.75% unsecured unsubordinated notes due September 30, 2025, utilizing proceeds from our recent senior-secured private placement, availability on our revolving credit facility, and loan repayments. The timely repayment of these notes reflects the strength of our balance sheet and underlying portfolio and enhanced our financial flexibility. During the 3rd quarter, our portfolio continued to perform in line with expectations. We still have approximately $104.1 million gross unpaid principal balance of non-performing loans, included in loans held for investment, or $93 million net, down $15.5 million gross, $9 million net from the $119.6 million gross and $102 million net as of June 30, 2025. Our REO net increased nominally by $300,000 or 1.5% over the June 30 quarter.

John Villano
John Villano
CEO at Sachem Capital Corp

The quarter-over-quarter activity included our urbane operations intentionally converting two land assets totaling $4.3 million into investment in Developmental Real Estate entitled for multifamily development to be contributed to a significant development partner for an equity stake in the project. This was offset by $4.7 million of additions to REO, representing the culmination of lengthy foreclosure processes where we can now position the assets for sale. Resolving our NPLs and REO can be a difficult and lengthy process. Our team's focus continues to make meaningful progress working through these legacy assets, which we believe is a critical step to facilitating further capital sourcing and ultimately future portfolio and dividend growth. Interest charges and late fees collected on NPLs during our workout process total $2.35 million, consisting of $1.95 million of interest income and $396,000 of borrower charges and late fees.

John Villano
John Villano
CEO at Sachem Capital Corp

Our REO balance will continue to ebb and flow as NPLs are added and properties are sold. Subsequent to quarter end, reductions in REO are comprised of two building lots sold at par plus accrued interest, totaling $226,000, a building lot under contract for $115,000 representing par plus accrued interest, and a commercial office building under contract for $3.72 million, with an expected closing in December of 2025. As of September 30, 2025, our book value was $2.47 per share, representing just a 2.8% decrease from June 30, 2025. Turning to Naples, we continue to actively manage our significant single borrower exposure in Southwest Florida. These are two cross-collateralized loans totaling approximately $50.4 million as of September 30, 2025, representing 13.4% of our outstanding mortgage loan portfolio. For reference, this compares to $55 million, or 14%, at year-end 2024.

John Villano
John Villano
CEO at Sachem Capital Corp

These loans remain in our non-performing loan portfolio and are non-accrual, which continues to weigh on monthly earnings by roughly $450,000, consistent with prior disclosures. As we've discussed on prior calls, this legacy 2021 investment has been challenged by permitting delays, the impact of two separate hurricanes, contractor and borrower performance issues, and legal disputes involving the City of Naples and former capital partners. The mediation event that we indicated on last quarter's conference call with the former capital partner holding the second lien position, a claim set aside multiple times in bankruptcy court but kept alive through repeated appeals, was postponed and is now scheduled for Friday, November 7. A constructive outcome at mediation would clear the path to resolution. First, the sale of the remaining completed condominium units. Second, the completion of an additional four-unit condominium building on one site.

John Villano
John Villano
CEO at Sachem Capital Corp

Third, the development or sale of the other site. Based on our current assessment, we continue to believe the consolidated cross-collateralized value of the assets exceeds our carrying value on these loans. We cannot control the weather or the court and mediation calendar, but we can control our discipline. Our priorities remain the same: protect principal first, then monetize value. We will keep you apprised as we reach milestones, and following the November 7 mediation, we will evaluate the fastest, most economical path to resolution. As previously disclosed, we have four development initiatives managed by Urbane, our in-house construction and development platform. Our Westport, Connecticut office asset with an approved residential component and three single-family residences in Coconut Grove, Florida. Execution remained on plan this quarter. In Westport, we continue to advance leasing discussions to increase occupancy.

John Villano
John Villano
CEO at Sachem Capital Corp

On a GAAP basis, the office assets are generating approximately $1.3 million of annual rental income. The residential component, 10 homes including two affordable units, remains fully entitled and is progressing through the development planning phase. In Coconut Grove, construction is proceeding as scheduled. One residence is expected to reach substantial completion in the mid-fourth quarter of 2025, with the remaining two scheduled for completion in the 1st half of 2026. In addition to these developments, Urbane is actively working across our REO portfolio to identify and convert selected assets into higher-value development opportunities. Including pursuing incremental entitlements and, where appropriate, continuing or initiating construction to enhance value. Additionally, at quarter end, we had invested an aggregate of $33.7 million in projects managed by Shem Creek Capital through six investment funds, excluding our $5 million in the Shem Creek Capital Manager.

John Villano
John Villano
CEO at Sachem Capital Corp

As a reminder, Shem Creek Capital is a commercial real estate finance platform that provides debt capital solutions to multifamily properties and allows us to participate in multifamily finance with strong borrower sponsorship. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, these funds and manager investments generated approximately $4.1 million in revenue, of which $1.1 million was for the current quarter ended September 30, representing an attractive low-risk double-digit yield. Turning to the macro environment, our industry continues to navigate a mix of cautious sentiment and persistent challenges. The Federal Reserve has recently implemented its second rate cut this year, lowering the target range to 3.75%-4%, and market expectations incorporate another quarter-point cut before year-end. While this provides some relief to borrowing costs, medium and longer-term rates remain elevated, keeping affordability stretched and existing home sales well below historical averages.

John Villano
John Villano
CEO at Sachem Capital Corp

Renting continues to offer a meaningful cost advantage over homeownership as new construction continues to face headwinds from higher costs, tighter credit conditions, and ongoing permitting hurdles. While these conditions have weighed on origination activity and contributed to ongoing elevated NPLs and REO, they also continue to create opportunities for experienced lenders like Sachem to provide flexible capital solutions in areas where traditional financing remains limited. Our pipeline of new opportunities remains strong, and we are well-positioned to capitalize on them as the market adjusts to this evolving environment. We remain committed to our disciplined approach in evaluating new loans, maintaining our focus on single-family and multifamily residential assets in markets with strong underlying fundamentals. Our underwriting standards continue to emphasize highly experienced and creditworthy sponsors. Our post-COVID era loan originations continue to perform exceptionally well.

John Villano
John Villano
CEO at Sachem Capital Corp

As we move into the end of 2025, we remain confident in our strategic direction and our ability to capitalize on the opportunities ahead. We will continue to focus on working through our legacy REO and NPL assets while pursuing accretive growth opportunities that align with our risk management principles. We are very excited about the opportunities ahead. With that, I will now turn the call over to Jeff.

Jeff Walraven
Jeff Walraven
EVP and CFO at Sachem Capital Corp

Thank you, John. I'll now walk you through Sachem Capital's financial highlights for the quarter and year-to-date. I'll start with three takeaways up front. First, sequential quarterly revenue improved. Second, credit costs moderated as reserves stepped down. Third, we efficiently repaid the September bond maturity while extending duration and keeping liquidity intact. As to our results and revenue mix, total revenue for the quarter was $12 million versus $14.8 million in the 3rd quarter of 2024, and up 11.4% from $10.8 million in the 2nd quarter of 2025. The revenue mix this quarter was $8.3 million of interest income on loans, $2 million of loan fees, $1.1 million from LLC investments, $0.1 million from other investment income, and $0.5 million of other income. The year-over-year decline reflects a smaller performing loan portfolio and a higher non-accrual mix.

Jeff Walraven
Jeff Walraven
EVP and CFO at Sachem Capital Corp

The sequential quarter lift alternatively reflects modest growth in average loan performing balances and steady fee generation. Lastly, gains on equity securities of $1.36 million sit below operating income. Two quick pieces of color on the above. Our loan yield on average performing loan balance of roughly $268 million for the quarter, our effective interest rate was approximately 12.4%. Which is consistent with the performing loan return profile in this rate environment. Inside the $2 million of loan fees, we recognized $0.84 million of origination modification fees, $0.19 million of extensions, and $0.48 million of late and other fees. Now speaking to expenses in the bottom line. Quarterly operating expenses were $12.4 million, down from $19.6 million a year ago. The big swing factor was the provision for credit losses, which fell to $0.8 million from $8.1 million as last year's reserve build gave way to a steadier credit cadence.

Jeff Walraven
Jeff Walraven
EVP and CFO at Sachem Capital Corp

Interest expense was $6.6 million. Compensation and benefits were $2.3 million, reflecting team rebuild costs and one-time bonuses of about $0.4 million, noted in the filing. We delivered GAAP net income of $1 million, but after the $1.1 million of Series A preferred dividends, net loss to common shares was $0.12 million, or $0 per share, a sharp improvement from the $0.13 loss per share in the prior year quarter. Sequentially versus the 2nd quarter, revenue rose 11.4%. Interest expense increased as we shifted the funding mix around the September maturity. Compensation and benefit impacts were the same as previously noted. G&A was up due to increased spend on the cost of maintaining REO properties. All other expenses normalized after adjusting for the 2nd quarter benefit in the loans held for sale valuation line.

Jeff Walraven
Jeff Walraven
EVP and CFO at Sachem Capital Corp

On a net-net basis, it was a noisier expense quarter, but a cleaner revenue base. Now taking a look at credit portfolio mix and other activity, we ended the quarter with 119 first lien loans, $375.2 million gross principal, and $361.7 million net after $11.1 million of allowance and net of deferred fees. The weighted average contractual rate, including the default rate, was 13.21%, and the weighted average remaining term is six months. Our property mix was 54% residential, 30% commercial, 12% mixed use, and 4% land. Geography remains diversified with the concentrations in Connecticut and Florida of 31% and 26%, respectively, of outstanding principal. Principal on our non-accrual loans was $104.1 million, down from $119.6 million at June 30 as cash resolutions and migrations to REO outpaced additions.

Jeff Walraven
Jeff Walraven
EVP and CFO at Sachem Capital Corp

Our allowance for credit losses on loans ended at $11.1 million, or approximately 3% of unpaid principal, down from the $17.6 million at second quarter, chiefly due to charge-offs on assets moving into REO and reserve right-sizing as individual loan files progressed. REO totaled $18.9 million across 19 properties. Loans held for sale were $8.8 million net. That ebb and flow is intentional as we utilize every traditional strategy to protect principal and monetize value. In the 3rd quarter, we dispersed $44.7 million, collected $40.7 million, and converted $10.9 million of principal to REO through foreclosure. Blocking and tackling as we worked these legacy files while underwriting and funding new disciplined business. Additionally, during the 3rd quarter, we extended terms, a weighted average of 10 months, on $29 million of loans, generally to bridge permit, lease-up, and construction timing.

Jeff Walraven
Jeff Walraven
EVP and CFO at Sachem Capital Corp

These extensions were done to safeguard collateral when repayment visibility is intact. Our Shem Creek Capital funds and manager investments contributed $1.1 million of income in the quarter on carrying value of $38.6 million at quarter end. These positions continue to generate attractive double-digit returns for Sachem. Looking at our balance sheet, capital, funding, and liquidity, our balance sheet is straightforward with total assets at $484.4 million, liabilities at $308.8 million, resulting in asset-to-liability coverage of approximately 1.57 times. Cash at quarter end was $11.2 million. In September, we retired in full the 7.75% SCCC notes at stated maturity of $56.3 million. We opportunistically repurchased $0.6 million of other unsecured notes during the quarter, recording a small gain on the extinguishment. To fund the SCCC notes maturity without stressing originations, we drew an additional $40 million on our 9.875% Senior Secured Notes due 2030.

Jeff Walraven
Jeff Walraven
EVP and CFO at Sachem Capital Corp

$10 million remains undrawn and available through May 15, 2026. As a result, quarter-over-quarter, unsecured notes decreased by $56.5 million. Senior secured notes increased by $40 million. Repurchase agreement spell $6.6 million, and the Needham line rose $6.5 million. Further on our credit facilities and related covenants. On our Needham revolver, we have $32.7 million outstanding at prime minus 25 basis points, 7.0% at 9:30, secured by pledged and assigned assets of $90.6 million, with customary covenants including 150% average asset coverage test. On our senior secured notes due 2030, we have $90 million outstanding at 9.875% fixed, secured by pledged and assigned assets of $183.4 million gross value, or $153.2 million net after note agreement required valuation limits and haircuts. With standard leverage liquidity covenants and a 1% commitment fee on the undrawn $10 million.

Jeff Walraven
Jeff Walraven
EVP and CFO at Sachem Capital Corp

On our Churchill repo, we had a $7.8 million outstanding balance at an effective rate of 8.33%. Secured by pledged and assigned assets of $30.7 million gross value. Subsequent to the quarter end, we have fully paid off our Churchill repo line, and the pledged and assigned assets are being released. On all of our facilities, we were in compliance with covenants as of and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025. Discussing our capital, our book value per common share was $2.47 at quarter end, down from $2.54 at June 30. The driver was simple. Preferred and common share aggregate dividends of approximately $3.5 million exceeded the quarter's GAAP break-even net income. These dividends were declared by the board and paid in September. They were $0.05 per common share and $48.4375 per share on the 7.75% Series A preferred.

Jeff Walraven
Jeff Walraven
EVP and CFO at Sachem Capital Corp

For a reminder, the company's board will address the fourth quarter dividend declaration and payment consideration the 1st week of December 2025. This is consistent with the company's prior communication that the intended normal dividend cadence for both preferred and common will be addressed in March, June, September, and December each year. Wrapping up this quarter's commentary, our management team remains focused on three levers. First, reduce our non-performing loans and monetize REO. Two, fund sound high-return loans against strong collateral. Third, manage our liquidity, leverage, and debt maturities. This is how our business model works and how we intend to continue to restore faith in our book value and support the dividend framework going forward. I'll now turn the call back to John for closing comments.

John Villano
John Villano
CEO at Sachem Capital Corp

Thanks, Jeff. We continue to believe Sachem is well-positioned as a leader in small balance real estate finance. Our key priorities are resolving our remaining REO and NPLs, further enhancing liquidity with the goal of capitalizing on our robust pipeline of opportunities to originate new loans that meet our underwriting standards. As markets normalize over time, we believe our disciplined approach will drive book value stability, support our dividend, and deliver long-term value for our shareholders. Thank you, and we will now open the call to questions from our analysts.

Thank you. We will now be conducting a question-and-answer session. If you would like to ask a question, please press Star one on your telephone keypad. A confirmation tone will indicate that your line is in the question queue. You may press Star two if you would like to remove your question from the queue. For participants using speaker equipment, it may be necessary to pick up your handset before pressing the Star keys. One moment, please, while we poll for questions. Our first question comes from Christopher Nolan with Ladenburg Thalmann. Please proceed with your question.

Christopher Nolan
Christopher Nolan
Senior VP of Equity Research at Ladenburg Thalmann

Hey, guys. On the Naples property, what amount of the non-accruals does that account for? If the mediation on Friday is favorable, could that impact the allowance?

John Villano
John Villano
CEO at Sachem Capital Corp

Good morning, Chris. The Naples Project, obviously, it's $50 million. It's approximately 14% of total loans and a very significant portion of our NPLs, probably just under half. With respect to the mediation, our goal with the mediation is to secure the asset, right? We've done our best to protect asset value. Our borrower has kind of fallen off track. There's still some ongoing issues with the 2nd mortgage, which comprised the former capital partners of our borrower. This mediation, it's this Friday. It could be very significant to having Sachem take control of the asset. Perhaps use the Urbain personnel to effectively manage and work through the sales process in Naples. We are considering, if mediation goes well, a construction of what we call the South Building, which we feel has strong marketability. It is a demand.

John Villano
John Villano
CEO at Sachem Capital Corp

Its price points are in line with the area, somewhat below what's going on in the area nowadays. Again, a lot depends on what happens on Friday. I want to be clear. When we come out of that meeting on Friday, we will have a hard and fast route to resolving this issue.

Christopher Nolan
Christopher Nolan
Senior VP of Equity Research at Ladenburg Thalmann

Great. There's a follow-up question for Jeff. Jeff, in your comments, did you mention that the net charge-off in the quarter was due to loans heading into real estate owned?

Jeff Walraven
Jeff Walraven
EVP and CFO at Sachem Capital Corp

Yes, there was movement down into Real Estate owned. There is a schedule that is in the footnotes to, it is in footnote six in REO in the Q. And you can see there, from a year-to-date perspective, on charge-offs that went into REO was $8.3 million. For specifically, I guess, the quarter.

Christopher Nolan
Christopher Nolan
Senior VP of Equity Research at Ladenburg Thalmann

I think it's $700 million.

Jeff Walraven
Jeff Walraven
EVP and CFO at Sachem Capital Corp

A good portion of that was in the quarter. There was a group of real estate that had moved into there, plus. Which monetizes or crystallizes, actually, the charge-offs that were previously in the CECL allowance.

Christopher Nolan
Christopher Nolan
Senior VP of Equity Research at Ladenburg Thalmann

Got it. Okay.

Jeff Walraven
Jeff Walraven

As a reminder, if you would like to ask a question, please press Star one on your telephone keypad. Our next question comes from Gaurav Mehta with Alliance Global Partners. Please proceed with your question.

Gaurav Mehta
Gaurav Mehta
Managing Director, Senior Equity Research Analyst, Real Estate, and Financials at Alliance Global Partners

Thank you. Good morning. I wanted to ask you on the loan disbursements and the prepared remarks. You gave a number for the loan disbursed during the quarter. I wanted to get some details on that number. Was that for unfunded loan commitments, or were there any new loan originations this quarter?

John Villano
John Villano
CEO at Sachem Capital Corp

There would be both in there, Gaurav.

Gaurav Mehta
Gaurav Mehta
Managing Director, Senior Equity Research Analyst, Real Estate, and Financials at Alliance Global Partners

Okay. As far as the remaining unfunded commitments in your portfolio of around $47 million, what's the timing of that?

Jeff Walraven
Jeff Walraven
EVP and CFO at Sachem Capital Corp

Oh, it would stretch out. Legitimately on that. I mean, the number of unfunded commitments ranging between, call it, mid-$45 million and mid-$55 million is kind of consistent quarter over quarter as we continue to turn over the portfolio. So that $47 million is legitimately spread over the next 12-18 months.

Gaurav Mehta
Gaurav Mehta
Managing Director, Senior Equity Research Analyst, Real Estate, and Financials at Alliance Global Partners

Okay. Lastly, on the new loan originations, can you provide some detail on where the yields are for the loans that you're looking at in the market?

John Villano
John Villano
CEO at Sachem Capital Corp

Gaurav, our yields are—hang on. Our pricing of debt right now. We have not dropped yields with other market competitors. We are still able to earn our 12 and two, perhaps maybe a little bit more. We do not feel the need that we need to discount. So our pricing is firm, and we will need to stay firm, right? Our cost of debt has increased a bit, and we are not in the position where we can sit and discount our financing costs.

Gaurav Mehta
Gaurav Mehta
Managing Director, Senior Equity Research Analyst, Real Estate, and Financials at Alliance Global Partners

Okay. Thank you. That's all I had.

Our next question comes from Craig Kucera with Lucid Capital Markets. Please proceed with your question.

Craig Kucera
Managing Director of Equity Research at Lucid Capital Markets

Hey, good morning, guys. Jeff, I think you mentioned that some of your G&A items increased this quarter because you had to take on some additional expenses related to REO and managing that. Is it fair to assume that that will be recurring?

Jeff Walraven
Jeff Walraven
EVP and CFO at Sachem Capital Corp

It really depends on the nature of the asset that has gone into REO. Yes, to the extent while REO balance stays where it is, we are actively continuing to resolve that. We have a number of resolutions that are coming to a near end. When it is in REO, we have property taxes. We may have other preservation maintenance, depending on where the property sits, how far along it was developed, to make sure that there is no degradation of value.

Craig Kucera
Managing Director of Equity Research at Lucid Capital Markets

Okay.

John Villano
John Villano
CEO at Sachem Capital Corp

I'd like to add one thing to Jeff's comment. Go ahead. Correct. Excuse me. I'd like to add one thing to Jeff's comment. While the movement to REO increased, we, company-wide, looked at it as positive. It's the culmination of a long-term battle with our borrowers to get control of our assets. While the markets look at REO as being absolutely terrible, right, it really is the light at the end of the tunnel for us because we can now work on those projects. We're situated in a great place with our Urbain unit to work through these. We touched on a few of them during the call. It's the only way—the only way and the quickest way of unlocking our capital is really to dump it into the REO. We're quite excited that we have now clarity on a large chunk of those NPLs.

Craig Kucera
Managing Director of Equity Research at Lucid Capital Markets

Got it. Sort of excluding what could possibly happen with the Naples properties and the mediation event here this Friday, what are your expectations for kind of working out some NPLs here over the next, call it, three to six months?

John Villano
John Villano
CEO at Sachem Capital Corp

The process is ongoing. In a perfect sense, these things are resolved on the courthouse steps, right, and they do not come back. The NPL shows up as a cash infusion, whether there is a gain or a loss on the final tally. That is our best. We would like to see that first. The next best outcome is to gain control, like I mentioned. It is ongoing. There is a lot of activity in the pipeline. We will continue to see great improvement in the reduction of the NPLs. I just want to be very clear. Our post-COVID originations are not adding to these totals.

John Villano
John Villano
CEO at Sachem Capital Corp

This is a finite number of issues that are going away, and there's really no new additions to the overall total. Okay. Thanks. That's it for me.
