2 Up

LOAN was up about 0.46% with light volume, while peers showed mixed action: some names like CHMI and GPMT appeared in momentum scans with 4–5% upside, and others in the broader peer list moved both up and down. This points to stock-specific dynamics rather than a unified REIT-mortgage sector move.

Pattern Detected

Recent news (dividends, buyback, earnings) has generally led to modest single-day moves, with earnings-related softness coinciding with small negative reactions and capital return announcements producing small positive or mixed moves.

Recent Company History

Over the past several months, Manhattan Bridge Capital highlighted capital return actions and softer operating trends. A Nov 20, 2025 share repurchase authorization and multiple dividend declarations underscored ongoing distributions to shareholders. However, the Q3 2025 report showed declining net income and revenues tied to slower loan originations. Today’s full-year 2025 results extend that narrative of lower income and revenue but continued balance sheet stability, connecting back to cautious growth and ongoing shareholder payouts.

Analysis

This announcement highlights that 2025 net income of about $5.11M and revenue of roughly $8.67M declined versus 2024 as loan balances and origination fees fell, partly offset by lower interest expense. Shareholders’ equity held near $43.1M, and a buyback program for up to 100,000 shares underscored ongoing capital return. Investors may watch loan receivable trends, origination activity, and credit conditions to assess whether earnings can stabilize after this more cautious year.

Key Terms

share repurchase program, origination fees, interest income, interest expense, +2 more

6 terms

share repurchase program financial

"approved a new share repurchase program authorizing the repurchase of up to 100,000 shares"

A share repurchase program is when a company buys back its own shares from the marketplace. This reduces the total number of shares available, which can increase the value of each remaining share and signal confidence in the company's prospects. For investors, it often suggests that the company believes its stock is undervalued or that it has extra cash to return to shareholders.

origination fees financial

"and lower origination fees, reflecting a slowdown in new loan originations."

Origination fees are one-time charges a lender or loan arranger collects for creating, evaluating and processing a loan or financing deal; they are usually a percentage of the loan amount and paid at closing or over time. For investors, these fees change the effective cost and proceeds of a financing, boost lender or arranger revenue, and can alter deal returns and cash flows—like a service charge that trims what a borrower receives and raises the lender’s income.

interest income financial

"This decrease was primarily due to lower interest income, partially offset by lower interest expense."

Interest income is the money a company or investor earns from lending funds or holding interest-bearing assets like bonds, savings, or loans—think of it as the ‘rent’ paid for using someone’s money. It matters to investors because it contributes to a firm’s profits and cash flow, and it can rise or fall with interest rates, revealing sensitivity to market conditions and affecting overall financial health.

interest expense financial

"primarily attributable to lower interest expense resulting from lower SOFR rates"

Interest expense is the cost a company pays for borrowing money, like rent on a loan or bond; it shows how much the company pays lenders over a period. Investors watch it because higher interest costs reduce reported profits and available cash, can signal heavier debt burden, and affect a company’s ability to invest or pay dividends — similar to how higher monthly rent leaves less money for other household needs.

SOFR financial

"primarily attributable to lower interest expense resulting from lower SOFR rates"

The Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) is a market benchmark that measures the cost of borrowing cash overnight using U.S. Treasury securities as collateral. Investors watch SOFR because it acts like a speedometer for short-term interest costs—affecting loan rates, bond yields and the pricing of interest-rate contracts—so movements change borrowing expenses, cash returns and the value of interest-sensitive investments.

weighted-average outstanding common shares financial

"based on approximately 11.4 million weighted-average outstanding common shares"

The weighted-average outstanding common shares is the average number of common shares a company had available during a reporting period, adjusted for changes such as stock issues, buybacks, or splits. Investors use it to calculate per-share measures like earnings per share, because it treats share-count changes like blending daily seat availability on a bus: more or fewer seats at different times affect the average passenger share, and thus the value assigned to each share.

GREAT NECK, N.Y., March 27, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Manhattan Bridge Capital, Inc. (Nasdaq: LOAN) (the “Company”) announced today that net income for the year ended December 31, 2025 was approximately $5,111,000, or $0.45 per share (based on approximately 11.4 million weighted-average outstanding common shares), versus approximately $5,591,000, or $0.49 per share (based on approximately 11.4 million weighted-average outstanding common shares) for the year ended December 31, 2024, a decrease of approximately $480,000, or 8.6%. This decrease was primarily due to lower interest income, partially offset by lower interest expense.

Total revenue for the year ended December 31, 2025, was approximately $8,666,000, compared to approximately $9,689,000 for the year ended December 31, 2024, a decrease of $1,023,000, or 10.6%. The decrease in revenue was primarily attributable to lower interest income, resulting from a period-over-period decrease in loans receivable, and lower origination fees, reflecting a slowdown in new loan originations. In 2025, approximately $7,175,000 of the Company’s revenue represented interest income on secured, real estate loans that the Company offers to real estate investors, compared to approximately $8,047,000 in 2024, and approximately $1,491,000 represented origination fees on such loans, compared to approximately $1,642,000 in 2024. The loans are principally secured by collateral consisting of real estate and accompanied by personal guarantees from the principals of the borrowers.

Total operating costs and expenses for the year ended December 31, 2025 were approximately $3,572,000, compared to approximately $4,115,000 for the year ended December 31, 2024, a decrease of $543,000, or 13.2%. The decrease was primarily attributable to lower interest expense resulting from lower SOFR rates and lower average borrowings under the Company’s credit facilities, partially offset by a slight increase in general and administrative expenses.

As of December 31, 2025, total shareholders' equity was approximately $43,100,000, compared to approximately $43,265,000 as of December 31, 2024.

On November 20, 2025, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a new share repurchase program authorizing the repurchase of up to 100,000 shares of its common stock over the following 12 months. As of December 31, 2025, the Company had repurchased 6,200 shares under the program for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $29,000.
Assaf Ran, Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, stated, “2025 was a year to be careful.  Factors like the material impact of the new young, socialist New York City mayor, the rising antisemitism due to massive waves of fake news and disinformation about Israel and Jews, and high interest rates, created concerns and a higher risk environment in the real estate markets.”

“As always, we took the conservative approach and screened loan opportunities on an even stricter basis until we felt the market was stabilizing and returning to a normal risk level in the first quarter of 2026. We would rather earn a little less, than step into uncomfortable areas,” added Mr. Ran.
