Altisource Asset Management Corporation Reports First Quarter 2014 Results

FREDERIKSTED, U.S. Virgin Islands, April 29, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) - Altisource Asset Management Corporation (“AAMC” or the “Company”) (NYSE MKT: AAMC) announced today financial and operating results for the first quarter of 2014. Net income attributable to stockholders for the first quarter of 2014 totaled $6.8 million, or $2.39 per diluted share,1 compared to a net loss attributable to stockholders of $840,000, or $0.36 per share,2 for the first quarter of 2013.

First quarter business performance highlights:

Achieved first quarter of positive net income since inception.
Issued 250,000 shares of a new non-voting Series A Convertible Preferred Stock to institutional investors for aggregate net proceeds of $248.9 million. The preferred stock is convertible into AAMC’s common stock at a conversion price of $1,250 per share and does not entitle the holders to dividends.
Facilitated the resolution of 822 loans by Altisource Residential Corporation (“Residential”) in the first quarter of 2014 versus 288 loans in the fourth quarter of 2013.
Facilitated Residential’s agreement to purchase a portfolio with an aggregate of 915 mortgage loans and real estate owned (“REO”) properties having an aggregate market value of underlying properties of $180.0 million.
  
Chief Executive Officer Ashish Pandey stated, “We expect Residential’s improved loan resolution results will have a meaningful impact on the growth of Residential’s rental portfolio.”

“Under the management of AAMC, Residential has been able to pay an increased dividend for the second consecutive quarter,” said Chairman William Erbey.
