"Despite the ongoing challenges in the real estate market, Atrium continued to produce very strong results for shareholders. Earnings per share for the quarter were $0.26 and our year-to-date earnings per share of $0.79 represents our second best nine-month result reported in our history as a public company. Our conservative 85% dividend payout ratio bodes well for the prospect of another sizable special dividend at year-end. We have continued to maintain our disciplined underwriting with 97.3% of the portfolio composed of first mortgages and 90.3% with a loan-to-value of less than 75%. In Q3 and the early part of Q4, we made substantial progress on the repayment of several Stage 2 and 3 loans. Barring any unforeseen changes, we expect that Stage 2 and 3 loans, as a percentage of the total portfolio, to drop sharply when we release our year-end results. Based on improvements in our borrowing base and stabilizing market conditions, I am pleased to announce an increase in our monthly dividend from an annual rate of $0.90 to $0.93 per share. Shortly after the end of Q3, Atrium also completed a highly successful common share offering for total gross proceeds of $28.8 million to further support the growth and liquidity of our business. We were gratified by the overwhelming investor demand for this offering," said Rob Goodall, CEO of Atrium.
