Stonegate Initiates Coverage on Creative Media & Trust Corp. (CMCT) Ready to Announce with Confidence?
Dallas, Texas--(Newsfile Corp. - June 1, 2026) - Initiates Coverage on Creative Media & Trust Corp. (NASDAQ: CMCT): Stonegate Capital Partners Initiates Coverage on Creative Media & Trust Corp. (NASDAQ: CMCT). CMCT's 1Q26 update shifts the story from balance sheet repair to FFO conversion. Reported results remained noisy given the late-quarter preferred redemption, but the Company has now redeemed $396.2M of preferred stock since September 2024, sold First Western, retired its recourse credit facility, and moved closer to its long-term target capital structure. The March redemption of $242.8M is expected to improve FFO by approximately $16.0M annually beginning in 2Q26, making the next several quarters a cleaner test of post-recapitalization earnings power. The key equity driver is now whether lower preferred dividends, improving multifamily occupancy, completed hotel renovations, and refinancing activity translate into visible FFO recovery.
