MINISTRY PARTNERS INVESTMENT COMPANY, LLC
COMPLETES RESTRUCTURING OF $120.8 MILLION CREDIT FACILITIES

BREA, CA -   Ministry Partners Investment Company, LLC, a California based credit union service organization that specializes in church lending, today announced the restructuring of its two major credit facilities, which total $120.8 million, reducing the Company’s projected interest expense by over $1.4 million in the first year following the restructuring of the facilities.  The restructured facilities will mature in October 2018.

The two facilities were originally provided by Members United Corporate Federal Credit Union and by Western Corporate Federal Credit Union, both of which have been closed by the National Credit Union Administration (NCUA) and are being liquidated.  The new lender on each of the restructured facilities is the NCUA.

“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.”
