“By accomplishing the restructuring of these facilities, we have created much greater stability in our balance sheet, extended the maturity date of our primary credit facilities and dramatically reduced our interest expense going forward,“ said Bill Dodson, President and CEO of Ministry Partners.

“This was a critical element in our return to profitability,” Dodson added. “We expect results in 2012 to show a turn around from the previous two years. If we can execute on our plan, which calls for
increased lending volume and loan participation sales, creating added funding capacity, and reducing credit losses, we expect that the Company will be able to report strong earnings for 2012.”
