The earnings call highlighted several strategic moves, such as the Federal Reserve rate cut and investment in Shem Creek Capital, which could benefit Sachem in the long term. However, significant challenges remain, including decreased revenue, increased nonaccrual loans, and a net loss for the quarter. The proactive sale of nonaccrual loans could help alleviate some pressures, but the overall financial performance reflects ongoing struggles.
Company Guidance
During the third quarter 2024 earnings call for Sachem Capital Corp., executives provided detailed financial guidance amidst challenging market conditions. The company reported a revenue of approximately $14.8 million, a decrease from the previous year's $17.8 million, largely due to reduced loan originations. The firm is engaged in negotiations to sell mortgage loans worth about $78.8 million, anticipating a recovery of 70% of the unpaid principal balance. This strategic move aims to reduce nonaccrual loans and foreclosures, thereby lowering the cost of capital. Operating expenses rose to approximately $19.6 million, driven by a $8.1 million increase in CECL reserves and $2.3 million in general and administrative expenses. The quarter also saw a net loss of $6.1 million, or negative $0.13 per diluted share. On the balance sheet, total assets were $555.5 million with $324.7 million in total debt. Despite the current challenges, Sachem is optimistic about future opportunities, particularly in the workforce housing sector, as evidenced by their $2.5 million investment in Shem Creek Capital, with an additional $2.5 million due by September 2025.
Federal Reserve Rate Cut
The Federal Reserve reduced interest rates by 25 basis points following a 50-basis point decrease in September, which is positive for borrowers and lenders.
Strategic Investment in Shem Creek Capital
Sachem invested $2.5 million in Shem Creek Capital for a 20% membership interest, with an additional $2.5 million due by September 2025, to diversify cash flow and broaden the business model.

Reduced G&A Expenses
