Manhattan Bridge Capital, Inc. Reports 21% Increase in Revenue


LONG ISLAND, N.Y., Aug. 6, 2012 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Manhattan Bridge Capital, Inc. (Nasdaq:LOAN) announced today that its total revenue for the three month period ended June 30, 2012 was approximately $415,000 compared to approximately $342,000 for the three month period ended June 30, 2011, an increase of $73,000 or 21.3%. For the three month period ended June 30, 2012, approximately $332,000 of the Company's revenue represents interest income on the secured, commercial loans that the Company offers to small businesses compared to approximately $276,000 for the same period in 2011, and approximately $82,000 represents origination fees on such loans compared to approximately $66,000 for the same period in 2011. The increase in revenue represents an increase in lending operations.

Income from operations for the three month period ended June 30, 2012 was approximately $158,000 compared to approximately $110,000 for the same period ended June 30, 2011, an increase of $48,000 or 43.6%. This increase in income from operations resulted mainly from an increase in revenue, offset by an increase in interest and amortization of debt service costs.

Net income for the three month period ended June 30, 2012 was $0.02 per basic and diluted share (based on 4.324 million shares and 4.331 million shares), or $80,000, versus net income of $0.03 per basic and diluted share (based on 3.324 million shares and 3.398 million shares) or $87,000 for the three month period ended June 30, 2011. This decrease in net income is mainly due to an increase in legal fees and in income tax expense, and a decrease in other income, offset by the increase in revenue.

Total revenue for the six month period ended June 30, 2012 was approximately $806,000 compared to approximately $680,000 for the six month period ended June 30, 2011, an increase of $126,000 or 18.5%. For the six month period ended June 30, 2012, approximately $640,000 of the Company's revenue represents interest income on the secured, commercial loans that the Company offers to small businesses compared to approximately $558,000 for the same period in 2011, and approximately $166,000 represents origination fees on such loans compared to approximately $122,000 for the same period in 2011. The increase in revenue represents an increase in lending operations.

Income from operations for the six month period ended June 30, 2012 was approximately $338,000 compared to approximately $245,000 for the same period ended June 30, 2011, an increase of $93,000 or 38%. This increase in income from operations resulted mainly from an increase in revenue, offset by an increase in interest and amortization of debt service costs.

Net income for the six month period ended June 30, 2012 was $0.05 per basic and diluted share (based on 4.324 million shares and 4.332 million shares), or $195,000, versus net income of $0.05 per basic and diluted share (based on 3.324 million shares and 3.397 million shares) or $168,000 for the same period in 2011, an increase of $27,000. This increase in net income is mainly due to an increase in income from operations, offset by an increase in income tax expense and a decrease in other income.

As of June 30, 2012 total shareholders' equity was approximately $8,291,000 compared to approximately $8,088,000 as of December 31, 2011, an increase of $203,000.

Assaf Ran, Chairman of the Board and CEO stated, "During the second quarter, we executed an extremely significant transaction, our first major line of credit. This $3.5 million line will help us continue our growth, both in revenue and in net income and is expected to be reflected in our financial results as soon as the third quarter of 2012. During the second quarter, we have paid a significant amount of money for legal fees in relation to the derivative lawsuit that was filed, dismissed, and filed again by a minority shareholder, Mr. Alan R. Kahn. We are insured to cover the legal fees but are required to pay the initial $75,000. We are preparing a motion to dismiss this amended complaint, which, subject to discussions with the minority shareholder's counsel and approval of the court, we expect to file this month."

"In the second quarter, we also experienced a significant increase in pay-off activity on existing loans and the demand for new loans. This activity represents some recovery in the markets in which we operate. Therefore, I am confident that we are on track for continuing growth," added Mr. Ran.
