Generates 15% Revenue Growth, Achieves 89% Total Asset Increase Year Over Year for Six Months Ended June 30, 2022, and Provides Outlook for Full Year 2022 and Financial Targets for 2023-24
SAN DIEGO, Oct. 05, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Andrew Arroyo Real Estate Inc. (AARE), a mission-driven real estate and lending brokerage in the United States, announced today that revenue for the mid-year 2022 was $4.8 million, up 15% year-over-year. Total assets for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was $1.278 million, an increase of 89% from the year ending December 31, 2021. AARE’s capital raise and diversified service model contributed to year-over-year growth for the six months ended June 30, 2022.
Net loss was $98,827 for the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to a net gain of $82,825 for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The majority of the net losses in Q1/Q2 of 2022 were driven by the ongoing expenses related to the IPO (initial public offering) and costs related to hiring an executive management team to facilitate the nationwide growth.
The Company’s cash position remains solid, with $625,000 in cash and an unused $75,000 credit line and $150,000 credit revolver available to invest in the growth of the business.
2022 Milestones & Q1/Q2 2022 Operational Updates
New Profit Center – Lending Department
During the second quarter of 2022, AARE developed a lending department. The lending department is doing business as Ensure Lending, a wholly owned subsidiary of AARE. This department is now established in California and actively funding loans regulated by the California Department of Real Estate.
“Our goal is to expand the lending department to the other 24 states we currently operate our real estate business. We believe we can generate significant additional revenue and profit for the Company by providing lending services to our clients,” said Andrew Arroyo, founder, chairman, and CEO of AARE.
Derek Barksdale was appointed to lead the new department. Before joining AARE and Ensure Lending, Mr. Barksdale most recently served as Manager Partner for Aligned Mortgage of San Diego, which was a subsidiary branch for the retail lending institution, American Pacific Mortgage. During his three-year tenure with Aligned/American Pacific Mortgage, Mr. Barksdale commissioned and managed the production, operations and support services to fund of over 1,800 loans with a total volume of $917 million. Mr. Barksdale also has an extensive military background in operations as a 21-year retired naval officer, with an additional four years as a senior government executive, distinguished as a federal Chief of Police. Mr. Barksdale’s private-sector experience began in 2011, as the Founder of Military Mutual, a real estate brokerage focused on providing real estate services to veterans and their families. Military Mutual is now affiliated with AARE and doing its real estate business through our company. Mr. Barksdale was offered a full-time employee position with us to oversee our new lending department. Mr. Barksdale accepted the employment contract and is now directing our staff in that department.
Outlook
“We continue to achieve revenue and total asset growth despite the changing economic conditions and aggressive interest rate hikes by the Fed,” said Andrew Arroyo, founder, chairman, and CEO of AARE. “The Fed’s goal to curb inflation is beginning to take its toll on the real estate and lending industry as a whole. Over tightening too quickly could lead to collateral damage for both consumers and industry professionals. To that end, we have systems in place that helped us through previous rising interest rate environments, recessions, and unusual market conditions. Our salesforce is ready to navigate a change in the market or a potential recession.”
3Q-4Q 2022 and FY2022 Outlook:
- FY2022:
- FY2022 Revenue of $8.5 million to $10 million
- FY2022 Gross Profit of $1 million to $1.5 million
- 3Q-4Q 2022:
- 3Q-4Q 2022 Revenue of $3.5 million to $5 million
- 3Q-4Q 2022 Gross Profit of $500,000 to $750,000
2023-24 Targets:
- Continued revenue growth between 10-30%
- Continued gross profit and total asset growth between 10-30%
- Continued reinvestment of net income and free cash flow to fuel our growth
