“Our first quarter as a public company was marked by strong acceptance by self-storage developers of our loan products, as evidenced by our exceptional loan pipeline growth,” said Dean Jernigan, chairman and CEO. “At quarter-end, we had committed approximately 67 percent of our IPO net proceeds, with approximately 92 percent of that capital committed to development loans that include 49.9 percent profit participations. Our loan pipeline is currently over 300 percent greater than at the time of our IPO and growing every day.”
