Management Remarks

“Our positive results for 2023 demonstrate continued strong returns from our investments. The sale of Suites on Paseo puts us in a position to redeploy the Partnership’s investment capital into our core multifamily and joint venture equity investment strategies,” said Kenneth C. Rogozinski, the Partnership’s Chief Executive Officer.

“The Partnership and the Board of Managers continue to demonstrate our focus on generating attractive returns on our investments that allow us to distribute value to our unitholders,” Rogozinski added.

The Partnership reported the following updates for the fourth quarter of 2023:

  • Advanced funds on Mortgage Revenue Bond (“MRB”) and taxable MRB investments totaling $24.6 million.
  • Advanced funds on Governmental Issuer Loan (“GIL”) and property loan investments totaling $25.3 million.
  • Advanced funds to joint venture equity investments totaling $16.1 million, which includes funds advanced to two new joint venture equity investments, Freestone Greenville and Freestone Ladera.
  • Sold the Suites on Paseo MF Property for gross proceeds of $40.7 million and a reported gain on sale of $10.4 million.
  • Freddie Mac executed the forward purchase of one GIL investment during the quarter. The Partnership’s GIL and property loan investments totaling $53.4 million associated with construction financing of an affordable multifamily project were settled in full at par plus accrued interest.
  • Completed a new secured financing transaction (the “TEBS Residual Financing”) secured by its residual interests in three Freddie Mac Tax Exempt Bond Securitization financings (“TEBS Financings”) for gross proceeds of $61.5 million with most of the funds used to pay down existing variable-rate corporate debt with a higher interest rate and a shorter maturity.
  • Received TOB trust financing proceeds totaling $34.0 million as leverage on various investment fundings.

The Partnership reported the following updates for the year ended December 31, 2023:

  • The Partnership realized investment income and gains on sale of joint venture equity investments totaling $25.0 million, resulting in approximately $0.95 of net income and CAD per BUC after related expenses and allocation of Tier 2 income to the Partnership’s general partner.

In addition, the Partnership has issued 2,250,000 Series B Preferred Units to date in 2024. The Partnership issued 1,750,000 Series B Preferred Units, with a stated value of $17.5 million, to a financial institution in exchange for 1,750,000 previously outstanding Series A Preferred Units. The Partnership also issued 500,000 Series B Preferred Units to a new institutional investor for gross proceeds of $5.0 million. The Series B Preferred Units are non-cumulative, non-convertible, and non-voting units of limited partnership interests in the Partnership with an annual distribution rate of 5.75%, which is an attractive cost of capital for the Partnership. The earliest potential redemption date for the newly issued Series B Preferred Units is early 2030, with certain exceptions.

Investment Portfolio Updates

The Partnership announced the following updates regarding its investment portfolio:

  • All affordable multifamily 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, 2023.
  • The Partnership continues to execute its hedging strategy, primarily through interest rate swaps, to reduce the impact of recently volatile market interest rates. The Partnership received net payments under its interest rate swap portfolio of approximately $1.9 million and $6.0 million during the three months and year ended December 31, 2023, respectively.
  • Two joint venture equity investment properties have stabilized operations and two additional properties have begun leasing activities as of December 31, 2023.

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.

On January 31, 2024, the Partnership completed a distribution in the form of additional BUCs at a ratio of 0.00415 BUCs for each BUC outstanding as of December 29, 2023 (the “Fourth Quarter 2023 BUCs Distribution”, collectively with the Second Quarter 2023 BUCs Distribution and the Third Quarter BUCs Distribution the “2023 BUCs Distributions”).

Disclosure Regarding Non-GAAP Measures - Cash Available for Distribution

This document refers to Cash Available for Distribution (“CAD”), which is identified as a non-GAAP financial measure. The Partnership believes 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 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, 2023 and 2022 (all per BUC amounts are presented giving effect to the 2022 BUCs Distributions and 2023 BUCs Distributions on a retroactive basis for all periods presented):

(1) The adjustment for the year ended December 31, 2023 reflects the change in allowances for credit losses under the CECL standard that was effective for the Partnership as of January 1, 2023 which requires the Partnership to update estimates of expected credit losses for our investments portfolio at each reporting date. The accounting for credit losses for the year ended December 31, 2022 was subject to previous accounting guidance that was generally applied incurred loss model rather than expected credit losses. There were no credit losses incurred using prior accounting guidance for the year ended December 31, 2022.

(2) This amount represents previous impairments recognized as adjustments to CAD in prior periods related to the Provision Center 2014-1 MRB. The property securing the MRB was sold in July 2022 with cash proceeds contributed to the bankruptcy estate. The borrower and the bankruptcy court are finalizing liquidation of the estate and the settlement of all remaining, receivables, payable and expenses such that the Partnership’s share of the proceeds can be distributed. Substantially all the assets of the borrower were liquidated in the third quarter of 2022 such that the Partnership’s loss was effectively realized.

(3) This amount represents previous impairments recognized as adjustments to CAD in prior periods related to the Cross Creek property loans. Such adjustments were reversed in the third quarter of 2022 upon the settlement of the outstanding balances.

(4) 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.

(5) As described in Note 3 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, 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.

For the year ended December 31, 2022, Tier 2 income allocable to the General Partner consisted of approximately $3.2 million related to the gain on sale of Vantage at Murfreesboro in March 2022.

(6) The Partnership determined there was a recovery of previously recognized impairment recorded for the Live 929 Apartments Series 2022A MRB prior to the adoption of the CECL standard effective 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.

(7) The Partnership declared three separate distributions during 2023 payable in the form of additional BUCs equal to $0.07 per BUC for outstanding BUCs as of the record dates of June 30, September 29, and December 29, 2023.

The Partnership declared two separate distributions during 2022 payable in the form of additional BUCs equal to $0.20 per BUC for outstanding BUCs as of the record dates of September 30 and December 30, 2022.
