On February 20, 2025, Greystone Housing Impact Investors LP (NYSE:
GHI) (the “Partnership”) announced financial results for the three
months and year ended December 31, 2024.
Financial Highlights
The Partnership reported the following results
as of and for the three months ended December 31, 2024:
- Net income of $0.39 per Beneficial Unit Certificate (“BUC”),
basic and diluted
- Cash Available for Distribution (“CAD”) of $0.18 per BUC
- Total assets of $1.58 billion
- Total Mortgage Revenue Bond (“MRB”) and Governmental Issuer
Loan (“GIL”) investments of $1.25 billion
The difference between reported net income per
BUC and CAD per BUC is primarily due to the treatment of unrealized
gains on the Partnership’s interest rate derivative positions.
Unrealized gains of approximately $7.0 million are included in net
income for the three months ended December 31, 2024. Unrealized
gains are a result of the impact of increased market interest rates
on the calculated fair value of the Partnership’s interest rate
derivative positions. Unrealized gains and losses do not affect our
cash earnings and are added back to net income when calculating the
Partnership’s CAD. The Partnership received net cash from its
interest rate derivative positions totaling approximately $1.3
million during the fourth quarter.
The Partnership reported the following results
for the year ended December 31, 2024:
- Net income of $0.76 per BUC, basic and diluted
- CAD of $0.95 per BUC
In December 2024, the Partnership announced that
the Board of Managers of Greystone AF Manager LLC declared a
regular quarterly distribution to the Partnership's BUC holders of
$0.37 per BUC. The distribution was paid on January 31, 2025, to
BUC holders of record as of the close of trading on December 31,
2024.
Management Remarks
“2024 was a challenging year from a number of
different perspectives,” said Kenneth C. Rogozinski, the
Partnership’s Chief Executive Officer. “The conditions in the
multifamily markets, both higher interest rates and operating
expenses, presented challenges to our joint venture equity
investments. Interest rate volatility also impacted the efficiency
of some of our securitization transactions. However, we are
encouraged by the opportunities that we are starting to see in
2025. The dedicated pool of capital that we have from the new
BlackRock construction lending joint venture is a powerful new tool
for us to serve our affordable housing developer relationship
base.”
Recent Investment and Financing
Activity
The Partnership reported the following updates
for the fourth quarter of 2024:
- Advanced funds on MRB and taxable MRB investments totaling
$36.8 million.
- Advanced funds on GIL, taxable GIL and property loan
investments totaling $32.0 million.
- Advanced funds to joint venture equity investments totaling
$11.2 million.
- Received proceeds from the sale of an MRB totaling $11.5
million.
- Entered into the 2024 PFA Securitization Transaction
representing fixed rate, matched term, non-recourse and non-mark to
market debt financing totaling $75.4 million.
In January 2025, the Partnership received
proceeds from the sale of Vantage at Tomball located in Tomball,
Texas, totaling $14.2 million, inclusive of the Partnership’s
initial investment commitment made in August 2020. The Partnership
estimates it will not recognize any gain, loss, or CAD upon
sale.
Investment Portfolio
Updates
The Partnership announced the following updates
regarding its investment portfolio:
- All MRB and GIL investments are current on contractual
principal and interest payments and the Partnership has received no
requests for forbearance of contractual principal and interest
payments from borrowers as of December 31, 2024.
- The Partnership continues to execute its hedging strategy,
primarily through interest rate swaps, to reduce the impact of
changing market interest rates. The Partnership received net
payments under its interest rate swap portfolio of approximately
$1.3 million and $6.5 million during the three months and year
ended December 31, 2024, respectively. From January 1, 2023 through
December 31, 2024, the Partnership received net swap payments
totaling $12.3 million or approximately $0.53 per BUC.
- Six joint venture equity investment properties have completed
construction, with three properties having previously achieved 90%
occupancy. Four of the Partnership’s joint venture equity
investments are currently under construction or in development,
with none having experienced material supply chain disruptions for
either construction materials or labor to date.

About Greystone Housing Impact Investors
LP
Greystone Housing Impact Investors LP was formed
in 1998 under the Delaware Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Act
for the primary purpose of acquiring, holding, selling and
otherwise dealing with a portfolio of mortgage revenue bonds which
have been issued to provide construction and/or permanent financing
for affordable multifamily, seniors and student housing properties.
The Partnership is pursuing a business strategy of acquiring
additional mortgage revenue bonds and other investments on a
leveraged basis. The Partnership expects and believes the interest
earned on these mortgage revenue bonds is excludable from gross
income for federal income tax purposes. The Partnership seeks to
achieve its investment growth strategy by investing in additional
mortgage revenue bonds and other investments as permitted by its
Second Amended and Restated Limited Partnership Agreement, dated
December 5, 2022 (the “Partnership Agreement”), taking advantage of
attractive financing structures available in the securities market,
and entering into interest rate risk management instruments.

Safe Harbor Statement
Certain statements in this press release are
intended to be covered by the safe harbor for “forward-looking
statements” provided by the Private Securities Litigation Reform
Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements generally can be
identified by use of statements that include, but are not limited
to, phrases such as “believe,” “expect,” “future,” “anticipate,”
“intend,” “plan,” “foresee,” “may,” “should,” “will,” “estimates,”
“potential,” “continue,” or other similar words or phrases.
Similarly, statements that describe objectives, plans, or goals
also are forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking
statements involve inherent risks and uncertainties, many of which
are difficult to predict and are generally beyond the control of
the Partnership. The Partnership cautions readers that a number of
important factors could cause actual results to differ materially
from those expressed in, implied, or projected by such
forward-looking statements. Risks and uncertainties include, but
are not limited to: defaults on the mortgage loans securing our
mortgage revenue bonds and governmental issuer loans; the
competitive environment in which the Partnership operates; risks
associated with investing in multifamily, student, senior citizen
residential properties and commercial properties; general economic,
geopolitical, and financial conditions, including the current and
future impact of changing interest rates, inflation, and
international conflicts (including the Russia-Ukraine war and the
Israel-Hamas war) on business operations, employment, and financial
conditions; uncertain conditions within the domestic and
international macroeconomic environment, including monetary and
fiscal policy and conditions in the investment, credit, interest
rate, and derivatives markets; adverse reactions in U.S. financial
markets related to actions of foreign central banks or the economic
performance of foreign economies, including in particular China,
Japan, the European Union, and the United Kingdom; the general
condition of the real estate markets in the regions in which the
Partnership operates, which may be unfavorably impacted by
pressures in the commercial real estate sector, incrementally
higher unemployment rates, persistent elevated inflation levels,
and other factors; changes in interest rates and credit spreads, as
well as the success of any hedging strategies the Partnership may
undertake in relation to such changes, and the effect such changes
may have on the relative spreads between the yield on investments
and cost of financing; the aggregate effect of elevated inflation
levels over the past several years, spurred by multiple factors
including expansionary monetary and fiscal policy, higher commodity
prices, a tight labor market, and low residential vacancy rates,
which may result in continued elevated interest rate levels and
increased market volatility; the Partnership’s ability to access
debt and equity capital to finance its assets; current maturities
of the Partnership’s financing arrangements and the Partnership’s
ability to renew or refinance such financing arrangements; local,
regional, national and international economic and credit market
conditions; recapture of previously issued Low Income Housing Tax
Credits in accordance with Section 42 of the Internal Revenue Code;
geographic concentration of properties related to investments held
by the Partnership; changes in the U.S. corporate tax code and
other government regulations affecting the Partnership’s business;
and the other risks detailed in the Partnership’s SEC filings
(including but not limited to, the Partnership’s Annual Report on
Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, and Current Reports on
Form 8-K). Readers are urged to consider these factors carefully in
evaluating the forward-looking statements.
If any of these risks or uncertainties
materializes or if any of the assumptions underlying such
forward-looking statements proves to be incorrect, the developments
and future events concerning the Partnership set forth in this
press release may differ materially from those expressed or implied
by these forward-looking statements. You are cautioned not to place
undue reliance on these statements, which speak only as of the date
of this document. We anticipate that subsequent events and
developments will cause our expectations and beliefs to change. The
Partnership assumes no obligation to update such forward-looking
statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of
this document or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events,
unless obligated to do so under the federal securities laws.

Disclosure Regarding Non-GAAP Measures -
Cash Available for Distribution
The Partnership believes that CAD provides
relevant information about the Partnership’s operations and is
necessary, along with net income, for understanding its operating
results. To calculate CAD, the Partnership begins with net income
as computed in accordance with GAAP and adjusts for non-cash
expenses or income consisting of depreciation expense, amortization
expense related to deferred financing costs, amortization of
premiums and discounts, fair value adjustments to derivative
instruments, provisions for credit and loan losses, impairments on
MRBs, GILs, real estate assets and property loans, deferred income
tax expense (benefit), and restricted unit compensation expense.
The Partnership also adjusts net income for the Partnership’s share
of (earnings) losses of investments in unconsolidated entities as
such amounts are primarily depreciation expenses and development
costs that are expected to be recovered upon an exit event. The
Partnership also deducts Tier 2 income (see Note 23 to the
Partnership’s consolidated financial statements) distributable to
the General Partner as defined in the Partnership Agreement and
distributions and accretion for the Preferred Units. Net income is
the GAAP measure most comparable to CAD. There is no generally
accepted methodology for computing CAD, and the Partnership’s
computation of CAD may not be comparable to CAD reported by other
companies. Although the Partnership considers CAD to be a useful
measure of the Partnership’s operating performance, CAD is a
non-GAAP measure that should not be considered as an alternative to
net income calculated in accordance with GAAP, or any other
measures of financial performance presented in accordance with
GAAP.
The following table shows the calculation of CAD
(and a reconciliation of the Partnership’s net income, as
determined in accordance with GAAP, to CAD) for the three months
and years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 (all per BUC amounts are
presented giving effect to the BUCs Distributions described in Note
23 of the consolidated financial statements on a retroactive basis
for all periods presented):

The adjustments reflect the change in allowances for credit losses
which requires the Partnership to update estimates of expected
credit losses for its investment portfolio at each reporting date.
In connection with the final settlement of the bankruptcy estate of
the Provision Center 2014-1 MRB in July 2024, the Partnership
recovered approximately $169,000 of its previously recognized
allowance credit loss which is not included as an adjustment to net
income in the calculation of CAD. |
|
|
(2) |
The gain on sale of real estate assets from the sale of the Suites
on Paseo MF Property represented a recovery of prior depreciation
expense that was not reflected in the Partnership’s previously
reported CAD, so the gain on sale was deducted from net income in
determining CAD for 2023. |
|
|
(3) |
As described in Note 23 to the Partnership’s consolidated financial
statements, Net Interest Income representing contingent interest
and Net Residual Proceeds representing contingent interest (Tier 2
income) will be distributed 75% to the limited partners and BUC
holders, as a class, and 25% to the General Partner. This
adjustment represents 25% of Tier 2 income due to the General
Partner. |
|
|
|
For the year ended December 31, 2024, Tier 2 income allocable to
the General Partner consisted of approximately $310,000 related to
the gain on sale of the Arbors at Hickory Ridge MRB in November
2024. |
|
|
|
For the year ended December 31, 2023, Tier 2 income allocable to
the General Partner consisted of approximately $3.8 million related
to the gains on sale of Vantage at Stone Creek and Vantage at
Coventry in January 2023 and approximately $813,000 related to the
gain on sale of Vantage at Conroe in June 2023, offset by a $1.4
million Tier 2 loss allocable to the General Partner related to the
Provision Center 2014-1 MRB realized in January 2023 upon receipt
of the majority of expected bankruptcy liquidation proceeds. |

The Partnership determined there was a recovery of previously
recognized impairment recorded for the Live 929 Apartments Series
2022A MRB prior to January 1, 2023. The Partnership is accreting
the recovery of prior credit loss for this MRB into investment
income over the term of the MRB consistent with applicable
guidance. The accretion of recovery of value is presented as a
reduction to current CAD as the original provision for credit loss
was an addback for CAD calculation purposes in the period
recognized. |
