In November 2020, the Company invested $300,000 in the preferred stock of JCAP in connection with the acquisition of JCAP by NexPoint. This investment consisted of 200,000 Series A Preferred Shares valued at a total of $200,000, and 100,000 Series B Preferred Shares valued at a total of $100,000. In December 2022, the Company completed a modification with Nexpoint Storage Partners (as successor in interest to JCAP) that exchanged the Series A and Series B Preferred Shares for 300,000 Series D Preferred Shares, valued at a total of $300,000. The Series D Preferred Shares are mandatorily redeemable after six years from the modification in December 2022, with two one-year extension options. NexPoint may redeem the Series D Preferred Shares at any time, subject to certain prepayment penalties. The Company accounts for the Series D Preferred Shares as a held to maturity debt security at amortized cost and evaluates whether the fair value is below the amortized cost basis at each reporting period. The Series D Preferred Shares have an initial dividend rate of 8.5%. If the investment is not retired after six years, the preferred dividends increase annually.
In July 2020, the Company purchased a senior mezzanine note receivable with a principal amount of $103,000. The note receivable bore interest at 5.5%, with a maturity in December 2023 and was collateralized through an equity interest in which it or its subsidiaries wholly own 62 storage facilities. The Company paid cash of $101,142 for the note receivable and accounted for the discount at amortized cost. The discount was being amortized over the term of the note receivable. In February 2022, a junior mezzanine lender exercised its right to buy the Company’s position for the full principal balance plus interest due, as a result of which the Company sold this note for a total of $103,315 in cash. The remaining unamortized discount was recognized in that quarter as interest income.
The Company offers bridge loan financing to certain of its third-party self-storage owners. These notes receivable consist of mortgage loans receivable, which are collateralized by self-storage properties that the Company manages, and mezzanine loans receivable, which are secured by equity interest pledges. As of December 31, 2024, 74% of the notes held are mortgage receivables. The Company may sell a portion of the mortgage receivables. These notes receivable typically have a term of three years with two one-year extensions and have variable interest rates. During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company sold a total principal amount of $183,632 of its mortgage bridge loans receivable to third parties for a total of $183,632 in cash, closed on $845,760 in initial loan draws, and recorded $54,545 of draws for interest payments.
The bridge loans typically have a loan to value ratio between 70% and 80% at origination. During the year ended December 31, 2024, one of the notes receivable entered nonaccrual status. Subsequent to year end, the Company purchased the property that collateralized the note, which was paid off at the time of close, with no gain or loss recognized. No other notes receivable are in past-due or nonaccrual status. The allowance for potential credit losses is immaterial.
