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.
