Portfolio Details (YE – Dec 31st)

'
Exposure to first mortgages remained within the historic range of 90%-95%

Lending rates declined sharply due to lower market rates, and higher first mortgages

Lowered exposure to B.C., while raising exposure to ON, implying enhanced geographical diversification

Loan loss allowances were raised by 35% YTD to 0.6% of the portfolio

Financials
2024 revenue rose 23% YoY to $22.83M, driven by higher lending rates, nearly matching our estimate of $22.85M
Net income increased 37% YoY, beating our estimate by 2%
2025 (9M) net income rose 10% YoY, despite lower lending rates, supported by higher mortgage receivables

Note that the above figures may be slightly different from the figures reported by Three Point due to the difference in the method of calculation. We used the average of the opening balance, and year-end balance of the mortgages outstanding, and invested capital, to arrive at the above figures.
2024 yield was 9.68% (vs our estimate of 9.27%) vs 8.13% in 2023
2025 (9M) yield was 9.00%
FRC Projections and Rating
With rates expected to trend downward, we foresee yields declining in 2026
Source: FRC
Our estimate for the 2026 yield varies between 7.65% and 8.23%, as loan loss provisions and lending rates vary
We are reiterating our overall rating of 2, and risk rating of 2.
Given the Bank of Canada’s rate cuts, yields are expected to decline. However, we believe the risk of higher default rates is easing, and the mortgage origination market is likely to gain momentum in 2026. Three Point continues to demonstrate strong operational performance, supported by its high exposure to first mortgages, conservative LTV, and a lower proportion of stage three (impaired) loans relative to industry standards. Overall, we believe Three Point is well-positioned to navigate current macroeconomic challenges and continue delivering relatively stable returns to investors.
