SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES | |
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | Note 1— Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Organization MMA Capital Holdings, Inc. invests in debt associated with renewable energy infrastructure and real estate. Unless the context otherwise requires, and when used in these Notes, the “ Company ,” “ MMA ,” “ we ,” “ our ” or “ us ” refers to MMA Capital Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiaries. We were originally organized as a Delaware limited liability company in 1996 and converted to a Delaware corporation on January 1, 2019. We focus on investments with attractive risk-adjusted returns that generate positive environmental or social impacts, with an emphasis on renewable energy debt investments. Our assets and liabilities are organized into two portfolios: · Energy Capital – This portfolio includes indirect investments in loans that finance renewable energy projects and revolving debt that we utilize to leverage such investments; and · Other Assets and Liabilities (“ OA&L ”) – This portfolio includes our investments in bonds, certain loan receivables, cash, real estate-related investments, subordinated debt and the balance of the Company’s assets and liabilities (investments in bonds and related financings, which were previously identified as their own portfolio in each Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that was filed in 2018, were reallocated to the OA&L portfolio as of December 31, 2018). We are externally managed by Hunt Investment Management, LLC (our “ External Manager ”), an affiliate of Hunt Companies, Inc. (Hunt Companies, Inc. and its affiliates are hereinafter referred to as “ Hunt ”). We operate as a single reporting segment. Basis of Presentation The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“ GAAP ”). The Company evaluates subsequent events through the date of filing with the United States (“ U.S. ”) Securities and Exchange Commission (“ SEC ”). Changes in Presentation We have revised the presentation of our Consolidated Statements of Operations for all reporting periods presented by reclassifying “Equity in income from unconsolidated funds and ventures” and all net gains (losses) associated with the Company’s bonds, loans, derivatives, real estate, other investments and the extinguishment of debt obligations as a component of “Non-interest income.” Additionally, the Company reclassified for all reporting periods certain discontinued operations that occurred during the fourth quarter of 2018 as a result of the assignment and settlement of certain agreements completing the Company’s disposition of its LIHTC related assets. Furthermore, we made certain reclassifications to prior year financial statements in order to enhance their comparability with current year financial statements. Use of Estimates The preparation of the Company’s financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, commitments and contingencies, and revenues and expenses. Management made estimates in certain areas, including the determination of fair values for bonds and derivative instruments. Management also made estimates in the determination and measurement of impairment of investments in bonds and real estate. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates. Principles of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company as well as those entities in which the Company has a controlling financial interest, including wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. Equity investments in unconsolidated entities where the Company has the ability to exercise significant influence over the operations of the entity, but is not considered the primary beneficiary, are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. New Accounting Guidance Adoption of New Accounting Standards Accounting for Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets In February 2017, ASU No. 2017‑05, “ Other Income – Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets (Topic 610‑20): Clarifying the Scope of Asset Derecognition Guidance and Accounting for Partial Sales of Nonfinancial Assets ” was issued. This guidance clarifies that the derecognition of all businesses should be accounted for in accordance with the derecognition and deconsolidation guidance of Topic 810‑10 – Consolidations . In addition, this guidance eliminates the scope exception in authoritative literature that governs transfers of financial assets related to transfers of investments (including equity method investments) in real estate entities and supersedes guidance related to the exchange of a nonfinancial asset for a noncontrolling ownership interest as set forth in Topic 845 – Nonmonetary Transactions . The effective date of ASU 2017‑05 is aligned with Topic 606. We adopted ASU No. 2017‑05 in conjunction with our adoption of Topic 606 as of January 1, 2018 and we recognized a cumulative effect adjustment of $9.2 million to retained earnings on January 1, 2018. Accounting for Financial Instruments In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-01, “Financial Instruments – Overall (Subtopic 825‑10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities.” This guidance amends the classification and measurement of financial instruments, including equity investments not accounted for under the equity method of accounting. Although this ASU retains many current requirements, it significantly revised an entity’s accounting related to (i) the classification and measurement of investments in equity securities and (ii) the presentation of certain fair value changes for financial liabilities measured at fair value. Additionally, certain disclosure requirements associated with the fair value of financial instruments were amended. We adopted this new guidance on its effective date of January 1, 2018. Upon adoption of this guidance, the Company assessed that certain of our equity investments did not have a readily determinable fair value, resulting in the Company electing the measurement alternative. As such, during the first quarter of 2018, the Company recognized a $0.4 million impairment within our Consolidated Statements of Operations. In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-08, “Receivables – Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs (Subtopic 310-20): Premium Amortization on Purchased Callable Debt Securities.” This guidance amends the amortization period for certain callable debt securities held at a premium, shortening such period to the earliest call date. We adopted this new guidance on its effective date of January 1, 2019. Upon adoption of this guidance, the Company assessed that certain of our bond investments were being held at a premium resulting in a change to the amortization period. As such, during the first quarter of 2019, the Company recognized a cumulative effect adjustment of $0.3 million to retained earnings. Accounting for Income Taxes In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018‑02, “Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income.” This new guidance permits companies to reclassify stranded tax effects caused by the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (the “ Tax Act ”) from AOCI to retained earnings and also requires new disclosures. We adopted this new guidance on its effective date of January 1, 2019. The adoption of this guidance did not impact the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets, Consolidated Statements of Operations, Consolidated Statements of Equity or Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows as of the adoption date. Accounting for Stock Compensation In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018‑07 , “ Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting .” This guidance expands the scope of ASC Topic 718 to include all share-based payment arrangements related to the acquisition of goods and services from both nonemployees and employees. We adopted this new guidance on its effective date of January 1, 2019. The adoption of this guidance did not impact the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets, Consolidated Statements of Operations, Consolidated Statements of Equity or Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows as of the adoption date. Issued Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted Accounting for Financial Instruments – Credit Losses In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016‑13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments Improvements.” This guidance is intended to reduce the complexity of United States (“ U.S. ”) GAAP by decreasing the number of credit impairment models that entities use to account for debt instruments. This guidance establishes an impairment methodology that reflects lifetime expected credit losses rather than incurred losses. This guidance requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates. This new guidance is effective for us on January 1, 2020, with early adoption permitted. However, on October 16, 2019, the FASB voted to approve its proposal to delay the effective dates of this ASU to be effective on January 1, 2023 for smaller reporting companies. We are currently evaluating the potential impact of the new guidance on our consolidated financial statements. In April 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-04, “Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and Topic 825, Financial Instruments.” This guidance is intended to clarify aspects of accounting for credit losses, hedging activities, and financial instruments. This new guidance is effective for us on January 1, 2020, with early adoption permitted. However, on October 16, 2019, the FASB voted to approve its proposal to delay the effective dates of this ASU to be effective on January 1, 2023 for smaller reporting companies. We are currently evaluating the potential impact of the new guidance on our consolidated financial statements. In May 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-05, “ Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Targeted Transition Relief.” This guidance provides transition relief for entities adopting ASU 2016-13. This guidance allows entities to elect the fair value options on certain financial instruments. This new guidance is effective for us on January 1, 2020, with early adoption permitted. However, on October 16, 2019, the FASB voted to approve its proposal to delay the effective dates of this ASU to be effective on January 1, 2023 for smaller reporting companies. We are currently evaluating the potential impact of the new guidance on our consolidated financial statements. Accounting for Financial Instruments – Fair Value Measurement In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018‑13, “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework – Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement.” This guidance eliminates certain disclosure requirements for fair value measurements, requires public entities to disclose certain new information and modifies some disclosure requirements. This new guidance is effective for us on January 1, 2020, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the potential impact of the new guidance on our consolidated financial statements. |

INVESTMENTS IN DEBT SECURITIES [Abstract] | |
Investments in Debt Securities | Note 2—Investments in Debt Securities The Company’s investments in debt securities consist of two subordinate multifamily tax-exempt bonds and one other real estate-related bond investment. These investments are classified as available-for-sale for reporting purposes and are measured on a fair value basis in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. Multifamily tax-exempt bonds are issued by state and local governments or their agencies or authorities to finance affordable multifamily rental housing. Generally, the only source of security on these bonds is either a first mortgage or a subordinate mortgage on the underlying properties. The Company’s investment in other real estate-related bonds consists of a single tax-exempt bond at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, that financed the development of infrastructure for a mixed-use town center development and is secured by incremental tax revenues generated from the development and its landowners (this investment is hereinafter referred to as our “ Infrastructure Bond ”). The weighted-average pay rate on the Company’s bond investments was 6.3% and 6.2% at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. Weighted-average pay rate represents the cash interest payments collected on the bonds (excluding subordinated cash flow bonds) as a percentage of the bonds’ average unpaid principal balance (“ UPB ”) for the preceding 12 months for the population of bonds at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018. The following tables provide information about the UPB, amortized cost, gross unrealized gains and fair value (“ FV ”) associated with the Company’s investments in bonds that are classified as available-for-sale: At September 30, 2019 Gross Amortized Unrealized FV as a % (in thousands) UPB Cost (1) Gains FV of UPB Multifamily tax-exempt bonds $ 6,160 $ 576 $ 8,145 $ 8,721 Infrastructure Bond 27,170 21,038 4,362 25,400 Total $ 33,330 $ 21,614 $ 12,507 $ 34,121 At December 31, 2018 Gross Amortized Unrealized FV as a % (in thousands) UPB Cost (1) Gains FV of UPB Multifamily tax-exempt bonds $ 65,162 $ 38,653 $ 33,564 $ 72,217 Infrastructure Bond 27,170 20,912 4,061 24,973 Total $ 92,332 $ 59,565 $ 37,625 $ 97,190 (1) Amortized cost consists of the UPB, unamortized premiums, discounts and other cost basis adjustments, as well as net OTTI recognized in “Impairments” in our Consolidated Statements of Operations. See Note 8, “Fair Value,” which describes factors that contributed to the $63.1 million decrease in the reported fair value of the Company’s investments in debt securities for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. Maturity Principal payments on the Company’s investments in bonds are based on contractual terms that are set forth in the contractual documents governing such investments. If principal payments are not required to be made prior to the contractual maturity of a bond, its UPB is required to be paid in a lump sum payment at contractual maturity or at such earlier time as may be provided under the governing documents. At September 30, 2019, one of the Company’s remaining three bond investments amortizes on a scheduled basis and has a stated maturity date of December 2048. The Company’s remaining two bond investments are non-amortizing subordinated cash flow bonds with principal due in full on November 2044 and August 2048 (the total cost basis and fair value of these bonds were $0.6 million and $8.7 million, respectively, at September 30, 2019). Troubled Debt Restructurings The Company may periodically agree to modify the contractual terms of its investments in debt securities in the interest of attempting to obtain more cash or other value from a debtor than it otherwise would, or to increase the probability of receipt, by granting a concession to a borrower. If the Company makes an economic concession to a borrower that is experiencing financial difficulty, the Company will typically assess a modification or other form of concession to represent a troubled debt restructuring (“ TDR ”) for reporting purposes. On August 27, 2018, the Company agreed to extend the scheduled payment date associated with one of its infrastructure bonds from September 1, 2018 to November 1, 2018. This extension provided the debtor and the Company more time to negotiate a comprehensive restructuring of both of the Company’s infrastructure bond investments. There were no TDRs for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019. Nonaccrual Bonds On July 23, 2019, the Company’s two remaining non-performing multifamily bond investments were fully redeemed. Upon redemption, the Company reclassified gains of $1.9 million from AOCI into the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations. The fair value of the Company’s investments in bonds that were on nonaccrual status was $12.9 million at December 31, 2018. Interest income on bonds that was recognized on a cash basis for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2018 was $0.1 million and $0.3 million, respectively. Interest income not recognized on bonds that were on nonaccrual status for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 was $0.3 million and $0.8 million, respectively. Bond Sales and Redemptions The Company received cash proceeds in connection with the sale or redemption in full of investments in bonds of $2.4 million and $26.6 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively, and received cash proceeds of $0.5 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018. On November 6, 2019, one of the Company’s unencumbered tax-exempt multifamily bond investments, that had a UPB and fair value of $2.2 million and $2.8 million at September 30, 2019, respectively, was fully redeemed at its reported fair value. The following table provides information about gains or losses that were recognized in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations in connection with the Company’s investments in bonds: For the three months ended For the nine months ended September 30, September 30, (in thousands) 2019 2018 2019 2018 Gains recognized at time of sale or redemption $ 2,156 $ 5,080 $ 26,420 $ 5,080 OTTI losses recognized on bonds held at each period-end ─ ─ ─ (6) Total net gains on bonds $ 2,156 $ 5,080 $ 26,420 $ 5,074 |

Investment in Partnerships | Note 3—Investments in Partnerships The following table provides information about the carrying value of the Company’s investments in partnerships and ventures: At At September 30, December 31, (in thousands) 2019 2018 Investment in Solar Ventures $ 194,647 $ 126,339 Investments in U.S. real estate partnerships (includes $932 and $898 related VIEs ")) (1) 20,421 19,961 Investment in South Africa Workforce Housing Fund (" SAWHF ") 7,499 8,779 Total investments in partnerships $ 222,567 $ 155,079 (1) We do not consolidate any of the investees that were assessed to meet the definition of a VIE because the Company was deemed not to be the primary beneficiary. Investments Related to the Solar Ventures At September 30, 2019, the Company held 50%, 50%, 44.7% and 100% equity interests in Solar Construction Lending, LLC (“ SCL ”), Solar Permanent Lending, LLC (“ SPL ”), Solar Development Lending, LLC (“ SDL ”) and Renewable Energy Lending, LLC (“ REL ”), respectively (collectively referred to as the “ Solar Ventures ”). Additionally, the Company held a 5.1% equity interest in SDL at September 30, 2019, that was acquired in the second quarter of 2019 from Hunt through a transaction that was reported as a secured lending transaction. While cash paid to settle this purchase was recognized as a loan receivable and the acquired equity interest in SDL was deemed to be collateral that did not get financial statement recognition, the Company acquired all legal rights and obligations related to such 5.1% ownership interest. See Note 13, “Related Party Transactions and Transactions with Affiliates,” for more information about the Company’s acquisition of Hunt’s interest in SDL. At September 30, 2019, the carrying value of the Company’s equity investments in SCL, SPL and SDL was $101.5 million, $0.1 million and $93.0 million, respectively. None of these investees were assessed to constitute VIEs and the Company accounts for all of these investments using the equity method of accounting. At September 30, 2019, the Solar Ventures, of which the Company is a 50% member, had $446.8 million of unfunded loan commitments to borrowers, which were anticipated to be funded primarily by capital within the Solar Ventures through a combination of idle capital and existing loan redemptions. To the extent capital within the Solar Ventures is not sufficient to meet their funding obligations additional capital contributions by the members of the Solar Ventures in proportion to their interests would be required. During July 2019, the Company and its capital partner in SDL executed a non-pro rata funding agreement pursuant to which our capital partner contributed 98% of a $30.0 million capital call and the Company contributed the balance. However, on September 20, 2019, the Company contributed 100% of a $28.8 million capital call, which caused the non-pro rata funding agreement with our capital partner in SDL to terminate. Prior to the Company’s buyout of a prior investment partner’s ownership interest in REL, which was effective June 1, 2018, the Company had accounted for its equity investment in Renewable Energy Lending, LLC (“ REL ”) pursuant to the equity method of accounting. However, subsequent to the buyout, the Company became the sole owner of REL and consolidated this entity for reporting purposes in all subsequent reporting periods. As a result, the Company’s equity investment in REL was eliminated for reporting purposes at each subsequent reporting period and REL’s equity investments in SCL and SPL are reported as direct investments of the Company at each reporting date. The $5.1 million purchase price paid by the Company to our prior investment partner on June 1, 2018, was allocated to the net assets acquired based upon their relative fair values. Such allocation resulted in a cumulative basis adjustment of $4.5 million being allocated to the Company’s investments in SCL and SPL, an adjustment which represented the difference between the Company’s acquisition cost basis of its investments and the historical cost basis of the investments at the partnership level. This basis difference is amortized over the remaining investment period of each respective partnership. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, the amortization expense related to such basis difference was $0.2 million and $0.7 million, respectively. As of September 30, 2019, the unamortized balance of the Company’s basis difference was $3.3 million. The following table provides information about the carrying amount of total assets and liabilities of all investees in which the Company had an equity method investment: At At September 30, December 31, 2019 2018 (in thousands) Total assets $ 449,917 $ 279,960 Other liabilities 26,421 12,833 The following table provides information about the gross revenue, operating expenses and net income of all investees in which the Company had an equity method investment: For the three months ended For the nine months ended September 30, September 30, (in thousands) 2019 2018 2019 2018 Gross revenue $ 16,081 $ 6,118 $ 38,367 $ 18,639 Operating expenses 1,144 1,290 4,687 4,107 Net income and net income attributable to the entity 14,940 4,755 33,749 14,974 Investments in U.S. Real Estate Partnerships At September 30, 2019, $19.5 million of the reported carrying value of investments in U.S. real estate partnerships represented the Company’s 80% ownership interest in a joint venture that owns and operates a mixed-use town center and undeveloped land parcels. The Company has the right to a preferred return on its unreturned capital contributions, as well as the right to share in excess cash flows of the real estate venture. As of September 30, 2019, the Company held a 78.5% economic interest based upon the partnership’s distribution waterfall. This entity was determined not to be a VIE because decision-making rights are shared equally among its members. As such, the Company accounts for this investment using the equity method of accounting. At September 30, 2019, $0.9 million of the reported carrying value of investments in U.S. real estate partnerships related to three limited partner interests in three affordable housing partnerships in which our ownership interest ranged from 74.25% to 74.92%. While these entities were deemed to be VIEs, the Company was not deemed to be their primary beneficiary. Therefore, the Company did not consolidate these entities and accounts for these investments using the equity method of accounting. At September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, four of the U.S. real estate partnerships in which we have investments were determined to be VIEs. The carrying value of the equity investments in these partnerships was $0.9 million at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018. For one of the Company’s VIEs, because the underlying real estate was sold during the fourth quarter of 2017, the Company does not expect to make additional contributions to that investment. Because we are unable to quantify the maximum amount of additional capital contributions that we may be required to fund in the future associated with our proportionate share of these investments, we measure our maximum exposure to loss based upon the carrying value of these investments. At September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, our maximum exposure to loss due to our involvement with these VIEs was $0.9 million. The following table provides information about the total assets, debt and other liabilities of the U.S. real estate partnerships in which the Company held an equity investment: At At September 30, December 31, 2019 2018 (in thousands) Total assets $ 53,251 $ 56,238 Debt 6,287 6,530 Other liabilities 32,271 32,165 The following table provides information about the gross revenue, operating expenses and net loss of U.S. real estate partnerships in which the Company had an equity investment: For the three months ended For the nine months ended September 30, September 30, (in thousands) 2019 2018 2019 2018 Gross revenue $ 624 $ 543 $ 1,920 $ 1,722 Operating expenses 437 487 1,380 1,377 Net loss and net loss attributable to the entity (727) (582) (1,288) (1,300) Investment in SAWHF At September 30, 2019, the carrying value of the Company’s 11.85% equity investment in SAWHF was $7.5 million. As SAWHF was determined not to be a VIE, the Company accounts for this investment using the equity method of accounting. The following table provides information about the carrying value of total assets and other liabilities of SAWHF: At At September 30, December 31, 2019 2018 (in thousands) Total assets $ 63,592 $ 74,803 Other liabilities 93 496 The following table provides information about the gross revenue, operating expenses and net (loss) income of SAWHF: For the three months ended For the nine months ended September 30, September 30, (in thousands) 2019 2018 2019 2018 Gross revenue $ 1,321 $ 1,693 $ 4,090 $ 3,998 Operating expenses 236 376 722 1,927 Net (loss) income and net (loss) income attributable to the entity (1,092) (4,463) 1,690 (2,896) |

At September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the UPB of HFI loans that were placed on nonaccrual status was $1.1 million, while the carrying value of these loans was $0.3 million as of such reporting dates. At September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, no HFI loans that were 90 days or more past due in scheduled principal or interest payments were still accruing interest. On April 1, 2019, the Company acquired Hunt’s 5.4% ownership interest in SDL for $11.3 million. Such transaction did not qualify as a purchase for reporting purposes and, as a result, the Company recognized $11.3 million as a loan receivable that is secured by Hunt’s interest in SDL. At September 30, 2019, the UPB and carrying value for this loan receivable was $20.0 million and had an effective interest rate of 17.3%. Refer to Note 13, “Related Party Transactions and Transactions with Affiliates,” for additional information. Loans HFS We report the carrying value of HFS loans at the lower of cost or fair value. In this regard, if a loan’s amortized cost exceeds its fair value at a reporting date, the Company will establish a valuation allowance and recognize a related provision for loan loss in our Consolidated Statements of Operations as a component of “Net gains (losses) on loans.” Subsequent increases in the fair value of an HFS loan for which a valuation allowance was established will be recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Operations as an increase (reduction) of “Net gains (losses) on loans” up to the amount of previously recognized losses. At September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the cost basis and carrying value of the Company’s HFS loans were $6.0 million and zero, respectively, as of such reporting dates. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and September 30, 2018, the Company did not recognize any lower of cost or market adjustments associated with any HFS loans that were recognized in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Unfunded Loan Commitments The Company had no unfunded loan commitments at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018. |

Furniture and fixtures are depreciated over a period of six to seven years and land improvements are depreciated over a period of 15 years. The Company’s OA&L portfolio includes the Company’s REO, which consists of a parcel of land that is currently in the process of being developed. During the first quarter of 2019, the Company invested $4.4 million for land improvement. As a result of the development activity, no depreciation expense was recognized in connection with this land investment for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and September 30, 2018, nor were any impairment losses recognized by the Company during such reporting periods in connection with REO. Debt Issuance Costs On September 19, 2019, the Company incurred, but deferred in the Consolidated Balance Sheets, $2.2 million of debt issuance costs in connection with the execution by MMA Energy Holdings, LLC (“ MEH ” or “ Borrower ”), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, of a credit agreement with various lenders that initially provided for a $70.0 million revolving credit facility. On October 11, 2019, the committed amount of the revolving credit facility increased to $100.0 million upon the joinder of two additional lenders. See Note 6, “Debt,” for more information. Such debt issuance costs are amortized ratably over the three-year term of the revolving credit facility. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, the Company recognized a de minimis amount of interest expense in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations related to the amortization of debt issuance costs. At September 30, 2019, the unamortized balance of debt issuance costs was $2.2 million. Derivative Assets At September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company recognized $0.6 million and $5.8 million, respectively, of derivative assets.

(2) Included in notes payable and other debt – other debt were unamortized debt issue costs of $0.1 million and $0.2 million at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. (3) Included in notes payable and other debt – bond related debt were unamortized debt issuance costs. The balance at December 31, 2018 was de minimis. (4) Carrying value amounts and weighted-average interest rates reported in this table include the effects of any discounts, premiums and other cost basis adjustments. An effective interest rate represents an internal rate of return of a debt instrument that makes the net present value of all cash flows, inclusive of cash flows, that give rise to cost basis adjustments, equal zero and in the case of (i) fixed rate instruments, is measured as of an instrument’s issuance date and (ii) variable rate instruments, is measured as of each date that a reference interest rate resets. Covenant Compliance and Debt Maturities The following table provides information about scheduled principal payments associated with the Company’s debt agreements that were outstanding at September 30, 2019: Asset Related Debt (in thousands) and Other Debt 2019 $ 942 2020 8,824 2021 1,913 2022 46,879 2023 1,846 Thereafter 83,510 Net premium and debt issue costs 7,426 Total debt $ 151,340 At September 30, 2019, the Company was in compliance with all covenants under its debt obligations. Other Debt Other debt of the Company finances non-interest-bearing assets and other business activities of the Company. The interest expense associated with this debt is classified as “Interest expense” under “Other expenses” on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Subordinated Debt The table below provides information about the key terms of the subordinated debt that was issued by MMA Financial Holdings, Inc. (“ MFH ”), the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, and that was outstanding at September 30, 2019: (dollars in thousands) Net Premium Interim and Debt Principal Issuer Principal Issuance Costs Carrying Value Payments Maturity Date Coupon MFH $ 26,130 $ 2,299 $ 28,429 Amortizing March 30, 2035 3-month LIBOR plus 2.0% MFH 23,760 2,102 25,862 Amortizing April 30, 2035 3-month LIBOR plus 2.0% MFH 13,696 1,120 14,816 Amortizing July 30, 2035 3-month LIBOR plus 2.0% MFH 24,902 2,036 26,938 Amortizing July 30, 2035 3-month LIBOR plus 2.0% Total $ 88,488 $ 7,557 $ 96,045 Revolving Credit Facility Obligations On September 19, 2019, MEH entered into a credit agreement with various lenders that initially provided for a $70.0 million revolving credit facility, which may be increased up to $125.0 million (the “ Facility Amount ”) after the initial closing date upon the joinder of additional lenders. The Facility Amount may be expanded by up to an additional $50.0 million, subject to the agreement of the participating lenders and satisfaction of certain other customary conditions. On October 11, 2019, the committed amount of the revolving credit facility increased to $100.0 million upon the joinder of two additional lenders. Obligations associated with the revolving credit facility are guaranteed by the Company and are secured by specified assets of the Borrower and a pledge of all of the Company’s equity interest in the Borrower through pledge and security documentation. Availability and amounts advanced under the revolving credit facility are subject to compliance with a borrowing base comprised of assets that comply with certain eligibility criteria, and includes late-stage development, construction and permanent loans to finance renewable energy projects and cash. The revolving credit facility contains affirmative and negative covenants binding on the Borrower that are customary for credit facilities of this type. Additionally, the credit agreement includes the following financial covenants of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries: minimum debt service coverage ratio, maximum debt to net worth, minimum consolidated net worth and minimum consolidated net income. Borrowing under the revolving credit facility bears interest at the one-month London Interbank Offered Rate (“ LIBOR ”), adjusted for statutory reserve requirements (subject to a 1.5% floor), plus a fixed spread of 2.75% per annum. At September 30, 2019, the LIBOR base rate plus the fixed spread was 4.8%, while the weighted-average effective interest rate of the Company’s obligation was 6.9%. The Borrower has also agreed to pay certain fees and expenses and to provide certain indemnities, all of which are customary for such financings. In certain circumstances where the interest rate is unable to be determined, including in the event LIBOR ceases to be published, the administrative agent to the credit agreement will select a new rate in its reasonable judgment. The maturity date of the credit agreement is September 19, 2022, subject to a 12-month extension solely to allow refinancing or orderly repayment of the facility. At September 30, 2019, the UPB and carrying value of amounts borrowed from the revolving credit facility was $45.0 million while the Company recognized $0.1 million of related interest expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations during the three months ended September 30, 2019. As of November 1, 2019, the UPB and carrying value of the revolving credit facility was $53.5 million. Notes Payable and Other Debt At September 30, 2019, the UPB and carrying value of notes payable and other debt that was used to finance the Company’s 11.85% ownership interest in SAWHF was $6.4 million and $6.3 million, respectively. Such debt, which is denominated in South African rand, has a contractual maturity date of September 8, 2020, and requires the Company to pay its counterparty a rate equal to the Johannesburg Interbank Agreed Rate (“ JIBAR ”) plus a fixed spread of 5.15%. At September 30, 2019, the JIBAR base rate was 6.81%, while the weighted-average effective interest rate of the Company’s debt obligation that was used to finance its ownership in SAWHF was 14.71%. Asset Related Debt Asset related debt is debt that finances interest-bearing assets. The interest expense associated with this debt is included within “Net interest income” on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Bond Related Debt These debt obligations pertained to investments in bonds that were classified as available-for-sale and were recognized by the Company in connection with transfers of bond investments that did not qualify as sales for reporting purposes. In most of these cases, debt obligations were recognized when the Company sold bond investments for cash consideration and concurrently executed total return swap (“ TRS ”) agreements with the buyer, which enabled the Company to retain the economic risks and returns of such investments. In cases where a TRS agreement was involved in a conveyance that was not accounted for as a sale, the Company’s counterparty was required to pay the Company an amount equal to the interest payments received on the underlying bonds and the Company was required to pay the counterparty a rate that was based upon the Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association seven-day municipal swap rate (“ SIFMA ”) plus a spread. The Company used the pay rate on executed TRS agreements to accrue interest on its secured borrowing obligations to its counterparty. During the second quarter of 2019, the Company terminated the three remaining TRS agreements that financed the Company’s bond investments and derecognized $31.6 million of asset-related debt. Consequently, as of September 30, 2019, the Company had no asset-related debt outstanding that financed bond investments. Non-bond Related Debt This debt obligation bears interest at 5.0%, is payable quarterly in arrears and has a varying amortization schedule that fully amortizes the note by its maturity date of January 1, 2026. The UPB and carrying value of this debt obligation was $4.0 million at September 30, 2019. Letters of Credit The Company had no letters of credit outstanding at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018. |

DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS [Abstract] | |
Derivative Instruments | Note 7—Derivative Instruments The Company uses derivative instruments for various purposes. Pay-fixed interest rate swaps, interest rate basis swaps and interest rate caps are used to manage interest rate risk. Foreign currency forward exchange agreements are used to manage currency risk associated with the financing of our SAWHF equity investment. TRS agreements were used by the Company to obtain, or retain, the economic risks and rewards associated with tax exempt municipal bonds. During the second quarter of 2019, the Company terminated all remaining TRS agreements. Derivative instruments that are recognized in the Consolidated Balance Sheets are measured on a fair value basis. Because the Company does not designate any of its derivative instruments as fair value or cash flow hedges, changes in fair value of such instruments are recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Operations as a component of “Net (losses) gains on derivatives.” Derivative assets are presented in the Consolidated Balance Sheets as a component of “Other assets” and derivative liabilities are presented in the Consolidated Balance Sheets as a component of “Other liabilities.” The following table provides information about the carrying value of the Company’s derivative instruments: Fair Value At At September 30, 2019 December 31, 2018 (in thousands) Assets Liabilities Assets Liabilities Total return swaps $ ─ $ ─ $ 1,130 $ ─ Basis swaps 104 ─ 808 ─ Interest rate caps 201 ─ 998 ─ Interest rate swaps ─ 324 2,674 ─ Foreign currency forward exchange 269 ─ 187 ─ Total carrying value of derivative instruments $ 574 $ 324 $ 5,797 $ ─ The following table provides information about the notional amounts of the Company’s derivative instruments: Notional Amounts At At September 30, December 31, (in thousands) 2019 2018 Total return swaps $ ─ $ 18,278 Basis swaps 35,000 35,000 Interest rate caps 35,000 80,000 Interest rate swaps 35,000 65,000 Foreign currency forward exchange 4,343 4,331 Total notional amount of derivative instruments $ 109,343 $ 202,609 During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, the notional amount of interest rate derivative instruments and total return swaps significantly decreased.

Net cash received was $0.2 million and $1.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, and September 30, 2018, respectively. (2) The accrual of net interest payments that are made in connection with basis swaps is classified as a component of “Net (losses) gains on derivatives” on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The net cash received was $0.1 million and $0.2 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively, while the net cash paid was de minimis for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018. (3) The accrual of net interest payments that are made in connection with interest rate swaps is classified as a component of “Net (losses) gains on derivatives” on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Net cash received was de minimis for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and $0.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. Net cash received was $0.1 million and $0.3 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, the Company also received $0.3 million to amend two interest rate swaps and recorded $0.3 million through “Other assets” on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

FAIR VALUE [Abstract] | |
Fair Value | Note 8—Fair Value We use fair value measurements to record fair value adjustments to certain assets and liabilities and to determine fair value disclosures. Assets and liabilities recorded at fair value on a recurring basis are presented in the first table below in this Note. From time to time, we may be required to measure at fair value other assets on a nonrecurring basis such as certain loans held for investment or investments in partnerships. These nonrecurring fair value adjustments typically involve application of lower-of-cost-or-market accounting or write-downs of individual assets. Fair Value Hierarchy The Company measures the fair value of its assets and liabilities based upon their contractual terms and using relevant market information. A description of the methods used by the Company to measure fair value is provided below. Fair value measurements are subjective in nature, involve uncertainties and often require the Company to make significant judgments. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the Company’s measurement of fair value. GAAP establishes a three-level hierarchy that prioritizes inputs into the valuation techniques used to measure fair value. Fair value measurements associated with assets and liabilities are categorized into one of the following levels of the hierarchy based upon how observable the valuation inputs are that are used in such measurements. · Level 1: Valuation is based upon quoted prices in active markets for identical instruments. · Level 2: Valuation is based upon quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which significant inputs or significant value drivers are observable in active markets. · Level 3: Valuation is generated from techniques that use significant assumptions that are not observable in the market. These unobservable assumptions reflect estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Recurring Changes in Fair Value The following tables present the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis by instrument type and based upon the level of the fair value hierarchy within which fair value measurements of such assets and liabilities are categorized: At September 30, Fair Value Measurements (in thousands) 2019 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Assets: Investments in debt securities $ 34,121 $ ─ $ ─ $ 34,121 Derivative instruments 574 ─ 574 ─ Liabilities: Derivative instruments $ 324 $ ─ $ 324 $ ─ At December 31, Fair Value Measurements (in thousands) 2018 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Assets: Investments in debt securities $ 97,190 $ ─ $ ─ $ 97,190 Derivative instruments 5,797 ─ 4,667 1,130 Changes in Fair Value Levels We monitor the availability of observable market data to assess the appropriate classification of financial instruments within the fair value hierarchy and transfer between Level 1, Level 2, and Level 3 accordingly. Observable market data includes, but is not limited to, quoted prices and market transactions. Changes in economic conditions or market liquidity generally will drive changes in availability of observable market data. Changes in availability of observable market data, which also may result in changing the valuation technique used, are generally the cause of transfers between Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3. For the three months ended September 30, 2019, and September 30, 2018, there were no individually significant transfers between Levels 1 and 2, or between Levels 2 and 3. Changes in the fair value of assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis and that are categorized as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy are attributed in the following table to identified activities that occurred during the three months ended September 30, 2019: Investments in (in thousands) Debt Securities Balance, July 1, 2019 $ 35,236 Net change in AOCI (1) (890) Impact from sales or redemptions (264) Impact from settlements (2) 39 Balance, September 30, 2019 $ 34,121 (1) This amount includes the reclassification into the Consolidated Statements of Operations of $1.9 million of net fair value gains related to bonds that were sold or redeemed during this reporting period.

(2) Amounts are classified as “Net (losses) gains on derivatives” in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations. Fair Value Measurements of Instruments That Are Classified as Level 3 We use valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. For our Level 3 assets and liabilities, we generally use a discounted cash flow valuation technique to measure fair value. This type of valuation technique involves developing a projection of expected future cash flows of an instrument and then discounting such cash flows using discount factors that consider the relative risk of the cash flows and the time value of money. In applying this technique, the rate of return, or market yield, that is utilized for such purposes reflects specific characteristics of an instrument including, but not limited to the expected term of the instrument, its debt service coverage ratio or credit quality, geographic location, investment size and other attributes: · For performing multifamily bonds and TRS derivatives, the Company’s projection of expected future cash flows reflects cash flows that are contractually due over the life of an instrument. Such projected cash flows are discounted based upon the market yield of such instruments. For such instruments, the Company determines market yield by generally utilizing the AAA Municipal Market Data tax-exempt rate (“ MMD ”) for each instrument’s specific term and applies a market rate risk premium spread that reflects that instrument’s specific credit characteristics, such as size, debt service coverage, state or bond type. · For non-performing bonds and subordinate cash flow bonds, the Company’s projection of expected future cash flows reflects internally-generated projections over a 10‑year investment period of future net operating income (“ NOI ”) from the underlying properties that serve as collateral for our instruments. A terminal value, less estimated costs of sale, is then added to the projected discounted projection to reflect the remaining value that is expected to be generated at the end of the projection period. The Company utilizes geographic and sector specific discount rates that are published by an independent real estate research organization. For purposes of projecting expected future cash flows associated with non-performing bonds, the Company may also consider either quotes received from third parties or contract prices associated with a purchase and sale agreement related to underlying properties that serve as collateral for our instruments. In instances where the Company uses more than one valuation technique to measure the fair value of underlying properties, the results (respective indications of fair value) are evaluated and weighted, as appropriate, considering the reasonableness of the range indicated by those results. · For our infrastructure bond investment, the Company determines market yield by generally utilizing the AAA MMD tax-exempt rate for each infrastructure bond’s specific term and applies a market rate risk premium spread that reflects the instrument’s specific credit characteristics. Contractually due cash flows are discounted based upon the market yield of such instruments as of such reporting date. Significant unobservable inputs presented in the tables that follow are those we consider significant to the fair value of the Level 3 asset or liability. We consider unobservable inputs to be significant if, by their exclusion, the fair value of the Level 3 asset or liability would be impacted by a predetermined percentage change, or based on qualitative factors, such as nature of the instrument, type of valuation technique used and the significance of the unobservable inputs relative to other inputs used within the valuation. Following is a description of the significant unobservable inputs that are referenced in the tables below: · Market yield – is a market rate of return used to calculate the present value of future expected cash flows to arrive at the fair value of an instrument. The market yield typically consists of a benchmark rate component and a risk premium component. The benchmark rate component, for example, MMD or SIFMA, is generally observable within the market and is necessary to appropriately reflect the time value of money. The risk premium component reflects the amount of compensation market participants require due to the uncertainty inherent in the instrument’s cash flows resulting from risks such as credit and liquidity. A significant decrease in this input in isolation would result in a significantly higher fair value measurement. · Capitalization rate – is calculated as the ratio between the NOI produced by a commercial real estate property and the price for such asset. A significant decrease in this input in isolation would result in a significantly higher fair value measurement. · NOI annual growth rate – is the amount of future growth in NOI that the Company projects each property to generate on an annual basis over the 10‑year projection period. These annual growth estimates take into account the Company’s expectation about the future increases, or decreases, in rental rates, vacancy rates, bad debt expense, concessions and operating expenses for each property. Generally, an increase in NOI will result in an increase to the fair value of the property. · Valuation technique weighting factors – represent factors that, in the aggregate, sum to 100% and that are individually applied to two or more indications of fair value considering the reasonableness of the range indicated by those results. · Contract price – represents a third-party sale agreement executed in connection with the pending sale of an affordable housing property that secures one of the Company’s bond investments. Estimated proceeds from the sale of such property that are determined to be allocable to a bond investment are used to measure such investment’s fair value at a given reporting date. The tables that follow provide quantitative information about the valuation techniques and the range and weighted-average of significant unobservable inputs used in the valuation of substantially all of our Level 3 assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis for which we use an internal model to measure fair value. The significant unobservable inputs for Level 3 assets and liabilities that are valued using dealer pricing are not included in the tables, as the specific inputs applied are not provided by the dealer.

(2) Weighted-averages are calculated using outstanding UPB for cash instruments, such as loans and securities, and notional amounts for derivative instruments. Nonrecurring Changes in Fair Value During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, the Company recognized $0.4 million of impairment losses associated with certain equity investments based upon the fair value of such instruments. Fair value measurements of these instruments, which were categorized as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy, were completed using a discounted cash flow methodology. There were no nonrecurring fair value adjustments recorded for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. Additional Disclosures Related To The Fair Value of Financial Instruments That Are Not Carried On The Consolidated Balance Sheets at Fair Value The tables that follow provide information about the carrying amounts and fair values of those financial instruments of the Company for which fair value is not measured on a recurring basis and organizes such information based upon the level of the fair value hierarchy within which fair value measurements are categorized. Assets and liabilities that do not represent financial instruments ( e.g. , premises and equipment) are excluded from these disclosures. At September 30, 2019 Carrying Fair Value (in thousands) Amount Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Assets: Cash and cash equivalents $ 10,837 $ 10,837 $ ─ $ ─ Restricted cash 6,115 6,115 ─ ─ Loans held for investment 87,267 ─ ─ 88,279 Liabilities: Notes payable and other debt - non-bond related 10,295 ─ ─ 9,738 Subordinated debt issued by MFH 96,045 ─ ─ 44,238 Revolving credit facility obligations 45,000 ─ ─ 45,000 At December 31, 2018 Carrying Fair Value (in thousands) Amount Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Assets: Cash and cash equivalents $ 28,243 $ 28,243 $ ─ $ ─ Restricted cash 5,635 5,635 ─ ─ Loans held for investment 67,299 ─ ─ 66,339 Liabilities: Notes payable and other debt - bond related 39,255 ─ ─ 39,289 Notes payable and other debt - non-bond related 12,210 ─ ─ 11,479 Subordinated debt issued by MFH 97,722 ─ ─ 46,778 Valuation Techniques Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash – The carrying value of these assets approximated fair value due to the short-term nature and negligible credit risk inherent in them. Loans held for investment – Fair value is measured using a discounted cash flow methodology pursuant to which contractual payments are discounted based upon market yields for similar credit risks. Notes payable and other debt – Fair value is measured by discounting contractual cash flows using a market rate of interest or by estimating the fair value of the collateral supporting a debt arrangement, taking into account credit risk. Subordinated debt – Fair value is measured by discounting projected contractual payments of principal and interest using such instrument’s estimated market yield, which was 12.0% and 13.4% at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. As outlined in the table above, at September 30, 2019, the aggregate fair value was measured at $44.2 million. At September 30, 2019, the measured fair value of this debt would have been $53.3 million and $37.5 million had its market yield been 9.5% and 14.5%, respectively, as of such reporting date. The measured fair value of this debt is inherently judgmental and based on management’s assumption of market yields. There can be no assurance that the Company could repurchase the remaining subordinated debt at the measured fair values reflected in the table above or that the debt would trade at that price. Revolving credit facility obligations – Fair value of these debt obligations is measured by discounting projected contractual payments of interest and principal using an estimated market yield. |

Equity | Note 11—Equity Preferred Share Information On January 1, 2019, as part of the Company’s conversion to a corporation, the Company was authorized to issue 5,000,000 of preferred shares, in one or more series, with no par value. The Board of Directors has not authorized any of these shares to be issued and no rights have been established for any of these shares. Common Share Information The following table provides information about net income to common shareholders as well as provides information that pertains to weighted-average share counts that were used in per share calculations as presented on the Consolidated Statements of Operations: For the three months ended For the nine months ended September 30, September 30, (in thousands) 2019 2018 2019 2018 Net income from continuing operations $ 5,576 $ 8,348 $ 31,685 $ 7,754 Net income (loss) from discontinued operations ─ 276 (8) 21,972 Net income $ 5,576 $ 8,624 $ 31,677 $ 29,726 Basic weighted-average shares (1) 5,887 5,804 5,884 5,717 Common stock equivalents (2) ─ 283 ─ ─ Diluted weighted-average shares 5,887 6,087 5,884 5,717 (1) Includes common shares issued and outstanding, as well as deferred shares of non-employee directors that have vested but are not issued and outstanding. (2) At September 30, 2018, 222,000 stock options were exercisable and in-the-money. The weighted average potential dilutive shares outstanding, inclusive of the options exercised during the year based on the exercise date, had a potential dilutive share impact of 282,597 and 348,403 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2018, the adjustment to net income for the awards classified as liabilities caused the common stock equivalents to be anti-dilutive. All stock options were exercised as of December 31, 2018. Common Shares On September 12, 2019, the Board authorized a 2019 share repurchase program (“ 2019 Plan ”) for the repurchase of up to 100,000 common shares, at market prices up to the Company’s last reported diluted common shareholders’ equity per share, which was $36.46 as reported within the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2019. The Company then adopted a Rule 10b5-1 plan implementing the Board’s authorization, subject to volume limitations as defined by Rule 10b-18 under the Exchange Act. The 2019 Plan expires upon the earlier of the close of trading on December 31, 2019 or the repurchase of the authorized 100,000 common shares. Between October 1, 2019 and November 1, 2019, the Company repurchased 23,849 common shares at an average price of $31.06. On March 9, 2018, the Company issued 125,000 common shares to Hunt for $4.1 million, or $33.00 per share. On June 26, 2018, the Company issued an additional 125,000 shares to Hunt for $4.3 million, or $34.00 per share. Effective May 5, 2015, the Company adopted a Tax Benefits Rights Agreement (the “ Rights Plan ”) to help preserve the Company’s net operating losses (“ NOLs ”). In connection with adopting the Rights Plan, the Company declared a distribution of one right per common share to shareholders of record as of May 15, 2015. The rights do not trade apart from the current common shares until the distribution date, as defined in the Rights Plan. Under the Rights Plan, the acquisition by an investor (or group of related investors) of greater than a 4.9% stake in the Company, could result in all existing shareholders other than the new 4.9% holder having the right to acquire new shares for a nominal cost, thereby significantly diluting the ownership interest of the acquiring person. The Rights Plan will remain in effect for five years, until May 15, 2020, or until the Board determines the plan is no longer required, whichever comes first. The Board may also choose to adopt a new plan effective on or after the date the Rights Plan expires. On January 3, 2018, the Board approved a waiver of the 4.9% ownership limitation for Hunt, increasing such limitation to the acquisition of 9.9% of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares in any rolling 12‑month period without causing a triggering event. At September 30, 2019, the Company had three shareholders, including one of its executive officers, Michael L. Falcone, who held greater than a 4.9% interest in the Company. In order to facilitate satisfaction of share purchase obligations related to his 2017 bonus award and permitting his stock option awards to be exercised, the Board of Directors named Mr. Falcone an exempted person in accordance with the Rights Plan but only to the extent of settling such share purchase obligations and options. Mr. Falcone satisfied his share purchase obligations and exercised all of his share purchase option awards as of December 31, 2018, and, due to the aforementioned action of the Board of Directors, there was no triggering event for purposes of the Rights Plan. On November 6, 2019, the Board further named Mr. Falcone an exempted person in accordance with the Rights Plan to the extent of his proposed open-market share purchases of up to an additional 6,000 common shares with the Board reserving all its rights under the Rights Plan for any subsequent purchases. As a result of the Board’s action, there was no triggering event for purposes of the Rights Plan.

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION [Abstract] | |
Stock-Based Compensation | Note 12—Stock-Based Compensation On January 8, 2018, the Company engaged Hunt through the execution of a management agreement with the External Manager (the “ Management Agreement ”) to externally manage the Company’s operations. All employees of the Company were hired by the External Manager. The Company has stock-based compensation plans (“ Plans ”) for non-employee Directors (“ Non-employee Directors’ Stock-Based Compensation Plans ”) and stock-based incentive compensation plans for employees (“ Employees’ Stock-Based Compensation Plans ”). The following table provides information related to total compensation expense that was recorded for these Plans: For the three months ended For the nine months ended September 30, September 30, (in thousands) 2019 2018 2019 2018 Employees’ Stock-Based Compensation Plans $ ─ $ (34) $ ─ $ 930 Non-employee Directors’ Stock-Based Compensation Plans 133 163 461 491 Total $ 133 $ 129 $ 461 $ 1,421 Employees’ Stock-Based Compensation Plans At September 30, 2019, there were 571,066 share awards available to be issued under Employees’ Stock-Based Compensation Plans. While each existing Employees’ Stock-Based Compensation Plan has been approved by the Company’s Board of Directors, not all of the Plans have been approved by the Company’s shareholders. The Plans that have not been approved by the Company’s shareholders are currently restricted to the issuance of only stock options. As a result, of the 571,066 shares available under the plans, 73,556 are available to be issued in the form of either stock options or shares, while the remaining 497,510 shares available for issuance must be issued in the form of stock options. Employee Common Stock Options; The Company measures the fair value of unvested options with time-based vesting and all vested options (both time-based and performance based) using a lattice model for purposes of recognizing compensation expense. Because options granted with stock price targets contain a “market condition” under FASB’s Accounting Standards Codification Topic 718, a Monte Carlo simulation is used to simulate future stock price movements for the Company. The following table provides information related to option activity under the Employees’ Stock-Based Compensation Plans: Weighted-average Remaining Weighted-average Contractual Aggregate Number of Exercise Price Life per option Intrinsic Period End (in thousands, except per option data) Options per Option (in years) Value (2) Liability (3) Outstanding at January 1, 2018 410 $ 1.56 3.4 $ 9,322 $ 9,342 Exercised in 2018 (1) (410) 1.56 Outstanding at December 31, 2018 and September 30, 2019 ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ (1) When exercised, stock options were net share settled. For the year ended December 31, 2018, 410,000 stock options were exercised, which resulted in a $9.3 million reduction to the Company’s reported “Other liabilities” within its Consolidated Balance Sheets at December 31, 2018. Of the 410,000 stock options that were exercised, the Company issued 220,279 common shares for the year ended December 31, 2018, and 189,721 stock options were tendered to the Company by their holders for the payment of related withholding taxes and exercise price. (2) Intrinsic value is based on outstanding options. (3) Only options that were amortized based on a vesting schedule have a liability balance. There were 410,000 options at January 1, 2018, that fit this profile. Non-Employee Directors’ Stock-Based Compensation Plans The Non -employee Directors’ Stock-based Compensation Plans authorize a total of 1,130,000 shares for issuance, of which 386,281 were available to be issued at September 30, 2019. The Non-employee Directors’ Stock-based Compensation Plans provide for grants of non-qualified common stock options, common shares, restricted shares and deferred shares. The Non-employee Directors’ Stock-based Compensation Plans provide for directors to be paid $120,000 per year for their services. In addition, the Chairman receives an additional $20,000 per year, the Audit Committee Chair receives an additional $15,000 per year and the other committee chairs receive an additional $10,000 per year. Under this plan, 50% of such compensation is paid in cash and the remaining sum through common share-based grants. The table below summarizes non-employee director compensation, including cash, vested options and common and deferred shares, for services rendered for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and September 30, 2018. The directors are fully vested in the deferred shares at the grant date.

Related Party Transactions and Transactions with Affiliates | Note 13—Related Party Transactions and Transactions with Affiliates Transactions with Hunt External Management Fees and Expense Reimbursements On January 8, 2018, the Company sold certain businesses and assets (the “ Disposition ”) and entered into the Management Agreement. At the time of the Disposition, all employees of the Company were hired by the External Manager. In consideration for the management services being provided by the External Manager, the Company pays the External Manager a base management fee, which is payable quarterly in arrears in an amount equal to (i) 0.50% of the Company’s first $500 million of common shareholders’ equity determined in accordance with GAAP in the U.S. on a fully diluted basis, adjusted to exclude the effect of (a) the value of the Company’s net operating loss carryforwards, and (b) any gains or losses attributable to noncontrolling interests (“ GAAP Common Shareholders’ Equity ”); and (ii) 0.25% of the Company’s GAAP Common Shareholders’ Equity in excess of $500 million. Additionally, the Company agreed to pay the External Manager an incentive fee equal to 20% of the total annual return of diluted common shareholders’ equity per share in excess of 7%. The Company also agreed to reimburse the External Manager for certain allocable overhead costs including an allocable share of the costs of (i) noninvestment personnel of the External Manager and an affiliate thereof who spend all or a portion of their time managing the Company’s operations and reporting as a public company (based on their time spent on such matters) and (ii) the Chief Executive Officer (“ CEO ”) and Chief Financial Officer (“ CFO ”) based on the percentage of their time spent managing the Company. Reimbursement of compensation-related expenses is, however, subject to an annual cap of $2.5 million through 2019 and $3.5 million thereafter, until the Company’s GAAP common shareholders’ equity exceeds $500 million. The current term of the Management Agreement extends to December 31, 2022 and automatically renews thereafter for additional two-year terms. Either the Company or the External Manager may, upon written notice, decline to renew or terminate the Management Agreement without cause, effective at the end of the initial term or any renewal term. If the Company declines to renew or terminates the Management Agreement without cause or the External Manager terminates for cause, the Company is required to pay a termination fee to the External Manager equal to three times the sum of the average annual base and incentive management fees, plus one times the sum of the average Energy Capital business expense reimbursements and the employee cost reimbursement expense, in each case, during the prior two-year period. The Company may also terminate the Management Agreement for cause, including in the event of a payment default under the Hunt note which causes the Hunt note to become immediately due and payable. No termination fee is payable upon a termination by the Company for cause or upon a termination by the External Manager without cause. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and September 30, 2018, no incentive fee was earned by our External Manager. During the three months ended September 30, 2019 and September 30, 2018, the Company recognized $1.6 million and $1.1 million, respectively, and $6.0 million and $5.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and September 30, 2018, respectively, of management fees and Loans HFI As consideration for the Disposition, Hunt agreed to pay the Company $57.0 million and to assume certain liabilities of the Company. The Company provided seller financing through a $57.0 million note receivable from Hunt that had an initial term of seven years, is prepayable at any time and bears interest at the rate of 5% per annum. On October 4, 2018, the Company’s receivable from Hunt increased to $67.0 million as part of Hunt’s election to take assignment of the Company’s agreements to acquire (i) the LIHTC business of Morrison Grove Management (“ MGM ”) and (ii) certain assets pertaining to a specific LIHTC property from affiliates of MGM (these agreements are collectively referred hereinafter to as the “ MGM Agreements ”). The UPB on the note will amortize in 20 equal quarterly payments of $3.35 million beginning on March 31, 2020. During the three months ended September 30, 2019 and September 30, 2018, the Company recognized $0.8 million and $0.7 million, respectively, and $2.5 million and $2.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and September 30, 2018, respectively, of interest income associated with this note receivable in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. At September 30, 2019, $0.8 million of accrued interest remains payable by Hunt. There was no accrued interest payable by Hunt at December 31, 2018. On November 28, 2018, the Company, our investment partner and Hunt entered into an agreement whereby Hunt was admitted as a partner of SDL solely for the purpose of a 30% investment in a specific loan. The maximum principal amount of this loan was $58.8 million with Hunt and the Company obligated to contribute 30% and 20%, respectively, and our investment partner was obligated to contribute the remaining 50% of the funding commitment of such loan. On September 30, 2019, the maximum principal amount of this specific loan increased to $104.0 million. On April 1, 2019, the Company purchased Hunt’s 30% ownership interest for $11.3 million, which represents the price that was projected to cause the Company and Hunt to achieve the same internal rate of return (“ IRR ”) on the amount of capital each had invested in the loan for the period of time that each party was invested in the loan. In this regard, upon full repayment of the loan, a post-purchase true-up payment may be required to be made by one party to the other depending upon the actual IRR achieved on the investment. Such transfer did not qualify as a purchase for reporting purposes and, as a result, cash consideration paid by the Company was reported as a loan receivable that is secured by the interest in SDL that Hunt conveyed to the Company. At September 30, 2019, the carrying value of this loan receivable was $20.0 million and had an effective interest rate of 17.3%. Investment in Debt Securities On April 25, 2019, the Company received $13.1 million of net proceeds from the sale of an affordable housing property that secured one of the Company’s non-performing bond investments. Hunt, as bond servicing agent, waived $0.9 million of servicing fees that were otherwise due and payable in priority to the Company’s bond investment. As a result, the Company received $0.9 million of additional bond redemption proceeds that we otherwise would not have received. Common Shares In conjunction with the Disposition, the Company agreed to issue, and Hunt agreed to acquire, 250,000 of the Company’s common shares in a private placement at an average purchase price of $33.50 per share. On March 9, 2018, the Company issued 125,000 common shares to Hunt for $4.1 million, representing a price per share of $33.00. On June 26, 2018, the Company issued the remaining 125,000 shares to Hunt for $4.3 million, or $34.00 per share. |

Income Taxes | Note 14—Income Taxes We recognize deferred tax assets and liabilities for future tax consequences arising from differences between the carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities under GAAP and their respective tax bases, and for net operating loss carryforwards and tax credit carryforwards. We evaluate the recoverability of our deferred tax assets (“ DTAs ”) as of the end of each quarter, weighing all positive and negative evidence, and are required to establish or maintain a valuation allowance for these assets if we determine that it is more likely than not that some or all of the DTAs will not be realized. The weight given to the evidence is commensurate with the extent to which the evidence can be objectively verified. If negative evidence exists, positive evidence is necessary to support a conclusion that a valuation allowance is not required. Our framework for assessing the recoverability of DTAs requires us to weigh all available evidence, including: · The sustai nability of recent profitability required to realize our deferred tax assets; · The cumulative net income or losses in our Consolidated Statement of Operations in recent years; · Forecasts of future book and tax income; · Our access to capital; and · The carryforward periods for net operating losses, capital losses and tax credits. Our consideration of evidence requires significant judgment regarding estimates and assumptions that are inherently uncertain, particularly about our future business structure and financial results. Risks to our forward-looking estimates include, but are not limited to, changes in market rates of return, additional competitors entering the marketplace (which would reduce nominal rates of return from competition for new borrowers), limits on access to investible capital that would limit new investments that could be made by the Company, changes in the law and the Company’s dependence on a small, specialized team of the External Manager for underwriting activities. Refer to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018, for more information about the risks to our business. At September 30 , 2019, the Company maintained a full valuation allowance against all of its DTAs, including federal and state net operating loss carryforwards. This treatment reflects the Company’s assessment that, in considering all available evidence, it was not more likely than not at such reporting date that its DTAs would be realized. However, the Company believes there is more than a remote but less than likely chance that, within the next 12 months, the portion of DTAs for which a valuation allowance is maintained could materially change due to potential changes in the Company’s investment strategy and other factors. Should this occur, the release of a portion or all of the valuation allowance would result in the recognition of certain net DTAs and a decrease to income tax expense during the reporting period in which the release is recorded. However, the exact timing and amount of any potential valuation allowance release is based upon future circumstances, such as the level of profitability that the Company objectively expects to achieve, and therefore cannot be predicted at this time. |

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES | |
Basis of Presentation | Basis of Presentation The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“ GAAP ”). The Company evaluates subsequent events through the date of filing with the United States (“ U.S. ”) Securities and Exchange Commission (“ SEC ”). |
Changes in Presentation | Changes in Presentation We have revised the presentation of our Consolidated Statements of Operations for all reporting periods presented by reclassifying “Equity in income from unconsolidated funds and ventures” and all net gains (losses) associated with the Company’s bonds, loans, derivatives, real estate, other investments and the extinguishment of debt obligations as a component of “Non-interest income.” Additionally, the Company reclassified for all reporting periods certain discontinued operations that occurred during the fourth quarter of 2018 as a result of the assignment and settlement of certain agreements completing the Company’s disposition of its LIHTC related assets. Furthermore, we made certain reclassifications to prior year financial statements in order to enhance their comparability with current year financial statements. |
Use of Estimates | Use of Estimates The preparation of the Company’s financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, commitments and contingencies, and revenues and expenses. Management made estimates in certain areas, including the determination of fair values for bonds and derivative instruments. Management also made estimates in the determination and measurement of impairment of investments in bonds and real estate. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates. |
Principles of Consolidation | Principles of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company as well as those entities in which the Company has a controlling financial interest, including wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. Equity investments in unconsolidated entities where the Company has the ability to exercise significant influence over the operations of the entity, but is not considered the primary beneficiary, are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. |
New Accounting Guidance | New Accounting Guidance Adoption of New Accounting Standards Accounting for Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets In February 2017, ASU No. 2017‑05, “ Other Income – Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets (Topic 610‑20): Clarifying the Scope of Asset Derecognition Guidance and Accounting for Partial Sales of Nonfinancial Assets ” was issued. This guidance clarifies that the derecognition of all businesses should be accounted for in accordance with the derecognition and deconsolidation guidance of Topic 810‑10 – Consolidations . In addition, this guidance eliminates the scope exception in authoritative literature that governs transfers of financial assets related to transfers of investments (including equity method investments) in real estate entities and supersedes guidance related to the exchange of a nonfinancial asset for a noncontrolling ownership interest as set forth in Topic 845 – Nonmonetary Transactions . The effective date of ASU 2017‑05 is aligned with Topic 606. We adopted ASU No. 2017‑05 in conjunction with our adoption of Topic 606 as of January 1, 2018 and we recognized a cumulative effect adjustment of $9.2 million to retained earnings on January 1, 2018. Accounting for Financial Instruments In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-01, “Financial Instruments – Overall (Subtopic 825‑10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities.” This guidance amends the classification and measurement of financial instruments, including equity investments not accounted for under the equity method of accounting. Although this ASU retains many current requirements, it significantly revised an entity’s accounting related to (i) the classification and measurement of investments in equity securities and (ii) the presentation of certain fair value changes for financial liabilities measured at fair value. Additionally, certain disclosure requirements associated with the fair value of financial instruments were amended. We adopted this new guidance on its effective date of January 1, 2018. Upon adoption of this guidance, the Company assessed that certain of our equity investments did not have a readily determinable fair value, resulting in the Company electing the measurement alternative. As such, during the first quarter of 2018, the Company recognized a $0.4 million impairment within our Consolidated Statements of Operations. In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-08, “Receivables – Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs (Subtopic 310-20): Premium Amortization on Purchased Callable Debt Securities.” This guidance amends the amortization period for certain callable debt securities held at a premium, shortening such period to the earliest call date. We adopted this new guidance on its effective date of January 1, 2019. Upon adoption of this guidance, the Company assessed that certain of our bond investments were being held at a premium resulting in a change to the amortization period. As such, during the first quarter of 2019, the Company recognized a cumulative effect adjustment of $0.3 million to retained earnings. Accounting for Income Taxes In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018‑02, “Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income.” This new guidance permits companies to reclassify stranded tax effects caused by the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (the “ Tax Act ”) from AOCI to retained earnings and also requires new disclosures. We adopted this new guidance on its effective date of January 1, 2019. The adoption of this guidance did not impact the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets, Consolidated Statements of Operations, Consolidated Statements of Equity or Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows as of the adoption date. Accounting for Stock Compensation In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018‑07 , “ Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting .” This guidance expands the scope of ASC Topic 718 to include all share-based payment arrangements related to the acquisition of goods and services from both nonemployees and employees. We adopted this new guidance on its effective date of January 1, 2019. The adoption of this guidance did not impact the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets, Consolidated Statements of Operations, Consolidated Statements of Equity or Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows as of the adoption date. Issued Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted Accounting for Financial Instruments – Credit Losses In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016‑13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments Improvements.” This guidance is intended to reduce the complexity of United States (“ U.S. ”) GAAP by decreasing the number of credit impairment models that entities use to account for debt instruments. This guidance establishes an impairment methodology that reflects lifetime expected credit losses rather than incurred losses. This guidance requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates. This new guidance is effective for us on January 1, 2020, with early adoption permitted. However, on October 16, 2019, the FASB voted to approve its proposal to delay the effective dates of this ASU to be effective on January 1, 2023 for smaller reporting companies. We are currently evaluating the potential impact of the new guidance on our consolidated financial statements. In April 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-04, “Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and Topic 825, Financial Instruments.” This guidance is intended to clarify aspects of accounting for credit losses, hedging activities, and financial instruments. This new guidance is effective for us on January 1, 2020, with early adoption permitted. However, on October 16, 2019, the FASB voted to approve its proposal to delay the effective dates of this ASU to be effective on January 1, 2023 for smaller reporting companies. We are currently evaluating the potential impact of the new guidance on our consolidated financial statements. In May 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-05, “ Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Targeted Transition Relief.” This guidance provides transition relief for entities adopting ASU 2016-13. This guidance allows entities to elect the fair value options on certain financial instruments. This new guidance is effective for us on January 1, 2020, with early adoption permitted. However, on October 16, 2019, the FASB voted to approve its proposal to delay the effective dates of this ASU to be effective on January 1, 2023 for smaller reporting companies. We are currently evaluating the potential impact of the new guidance on our consolidated financial statements. Accounting for Financial Instruments – Fair Value Measurement In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018‑13, “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework – Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement.” This guidance eliminates certain disclosure requirements for fair value measurements, requires public entities to disclose certain new information and modifies some disclosure requirements. This new guidance is effective for us on January 1, 2020, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the potential impact of the new guidance on our consolidated financial statements. |
