PHILADELPHIA, PA--(Marketwire - May 4, 2011) - Resource America, Inc. (NASDAQ: REXI) (the "Company") reported an adjusted loss from continuing operations attributable to common shareholders, a non-GAAP measure, of $675,000, or $0.03 per common share-diluted, and $1.0 million, or $0.05 per common share-diluted, for the second fiscal quarter and six months ended March 31, 2011, respectively, as compared to an adjusted loss from continuing operations attributable to common shareholders of $880,000, or $0.05 per common share-diluted, and $752,000, or $0.04 per common share-diluted, for the second fiscal quarter and six months ended March 31, 2010, respectively. A reconciliation of the Company's reported GAAP loss from continuing operations attributable to common shareholders to adjusted loss from continuing operations attributable to common shareholders, a non-GAAP measure, is included as Schedule I to this release.
For the second fiscal quarter and six months ended March 31, 2011, the Company reported a GAAP net loss attributable to common shareholders of $4.3 million, or $0.22 per common share-diluted, and $4.8 million, or $0.25 per common share-diluted, respectively, as compared to $1.2 million, or $0.06 per common share-diluted, and $261,000, or $0.01 per common share-diluted, for the second fiscal quarter and six months ended March 31, 2010, respectively. Included in GAAP net loss attributable to common shareholders for the second fiscal quarter and six months ended March 31, 2011 was a $2.2 million charge, net of tax, to discontinued operations related to a previously sold real estate asset.
Jonathan Cohen, CEO and President, commented, "During our second quarter ended March 31, 2011, the Company continues to make progress and has now begun to grow again. Assets under management increased over $600 million from a year ago and revenues increased substantially from last quarter, and growth prospects appear to have been revived in REIT and CLO offerings which have been a key driver to our company's asset growth. Our balance sheet is in good shape with approximately $16.5 million in cash and after the closing of our non-core real estate sale in June (under contract now) we expect to book a gain of $8.5 million and take in approximately $17 million of additional cash after taxes."

made the acquisition described below during the second fiscal quarter
ended March 31, 2011.
-- Acquisition: In March 2011, RRE purchased a $3.1 million portfolio
consisting of four loans on behalf of RRE Opportunity REIT, each of
which is secured by a first priority mortgage on a multifamily
residential apartment community. In connection with this purchase, the
Company received a $64,000 acquisition fee and will receive management
fees and debt servicing fees on two of the loans in the future.
-- Resolution of Equity Interest: In March 2011, RRE, along with an
existing joint venture partner, sold its interest in an apartment
building in Lafayette, IN and received proceeds of $282,000.
-- Property Management: Resource Real Estate Management, Inc., the
Company's property management subsidiary, increased the apartment units
it manages to 14,913 units at 52 properties as of March 31, 2011 from
14,456 units at 54 properties as of March 31, 2010.
FINANCIAL FUND MANAGEMENT:
-- CLO Award Nomination: Apidos Capital Management, LLC ("Apidos"), the
Company's leveraged loan manager, has been selected as a finalist for
several Creditflux CLO manager awards. Apidos is a finalist in the

It is the only finalist that has been nominated in all three of these

-- New Management Agreement: In February 2011, in connection with the
acquisition by Resource Capital Corp. ("RSO") of Churchill Pacific
Asset Management LLC, which was renamed Resource Capital Asset
Management, LLC ("RCAM"), Apidos was appointed sub-advisor and agent to
advise RCAM in connection with its collateral management and collateral
administration duties under five collateral management agreements. In
connection with the services provided, Apidos will receive 10% of all
base and additional collateral management fees and 50% of incentive
management fees collected by RCAM.
COMMERCIAL FINANCE:
-- In January 2011, LEAF Financial Corporation ("LEAF"), the Company's
commercial finance operating segment, raised or obtained
commitments for up to approximately $236 million of equity and debt
capital to expand its leasing platform through its new lease
origination and servicing subsidiary, LEAF Commercial Capital, Inc.
("LEAF Commercial"). LEAF Commercial is a joint venture among LEAF,
Resource Capital Corp. ("RSO") and Guggenheim Securities, LLC
("Guggenheim"). RSO and Guggenheim committed to investing up to
$44 million of capital in the form of preferred stock and subordinated
debt into LEAF Commercial. In addition, Guggenheim has arranged a new
financing facility for LEAF Commercial of up to $192 million in
revolving senior debt to fund new originations.
-- Lease Origination/Platform Expansion: LEAF Commercial continues to
focus its origination efforts to better serve its equipment vendor
customers, support its independent equipment dealers and enhance its
manufacturer branch networks through its full service processing center
in Moberly, MO. In addition, through its Philadelphia, PA processing
center, LEAF Commercial will support the captive finance arms of its
manufacturer clients, as well as bank outsourcing and direct marketing
to end users in select vertical markets.
-- Increased Key Metrics: As a result of the capital raise announced in
January 2011 and the refocusing of resources on the expansion of the
platform, our commercial finance operation has shown significant
increases in key business metrics for the second fiscal quarter ended
March 31, 2011 as compared to the first fiscal quarter ended
December 31, 2010:
-- Credit Applications - up 31%
-- Lease Originations - up 73%
-- Approved Backlog - up 79%
-- Expanded Credit: In April 2011, Wells Fargo Lender Finance ("Wells")
joined as a participant in LEAF Commercial's revolving senior debt
facility arranged and managed by Guggenheim. This additional $60
million commitment from Wells will be used by LEAF Commercial to fund
new lease originations.
-- Securitizations: Since May 2010, LEAF has completed five securitization
transactions totaling $700 million on behalf of affiliates for which it
manages leasing portfolios. These transactions have been term funded
through the issuance of contract-backed notes and LEAF will continue to
service these securitization pools.
CORPORATE/OTHER:

Company is the external manager and a shareholder, completed a public
common stock follow-on offering of 6.9 million shares of its common

underwriting discounts and expenses, of $46.6 million. The Company is
paid a base management fee of 1.5% based on RSO's equity.
-- New Credit Facility: In February 2011, the Company entered into a new
$3.5 million secured line of credit with Republic First Bank
("Republic"). The Republic facility bears interest at a rate of prime
plus 100 basis points with a floor of 4.5% and matures on September 28,

over the prime rate (with a 7.00% floor);

over the prime rate (with a 6% floor) from 450 basis points over
the prime rate (with a 7.50% floor); and
-- Modification to apply asset sale prepayments to only reduce the
term loan.
-- Dividends: The Company's Board of Directors authorized the payment on
April 29, 2011 of a $0.03 cash dividend per share on the Company's

(1) For comparability purposes, the Company is presenting adjusted loss
from continuing operations attributable to common shareholders because
it facilitates the evaluation of the Company's underlying operating
performance without the effect of adjustments that do not directly
relate to that performance. Adjusted loss from continuing operations
attributable to common shareholders should not be considered as an
alternative to loss from continuing operations attributable to common
shareholders (computed in accordance with GAAP). Instead, adjusted
loss from continuing operations attributable to common shareholders
should be reviewed in connection with loss from continuing operations
attributable to common shareholders in the Company's consolidated
financial statements, to help analyze how the Company's business is
performing.
(2) Loss from commercial finance operations consists of revenues and
expenses from commercial finance operations (including gains or losses
from the sale of leases and loans, gain on extinguishment of
servicing and repurchase liabilities, provision for credit losses and
depreciation and amortization) net of applicable tax benefits and
noncontrolling interests.
