adjusted income from continuing operations attributable to common
shareholders, a non-GAAP measure, of $726,000, or $0.04 per common
share-diluted, for the second fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2012 as
compared to an adjusted loss from continuing operations attributable
to common shareholders of $1.7 million, or $0.09 per common share
diluted, for the second fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2011. A
reconciliation of the Company's reported GAAP loss from continuing

Jonathan Cohen, CEO and President, commented, "The recent completion
of our transaction creating CVC Credit Partners demonstrates the
quality and value of our asset management platforms. We will
recognize a gain of approximately $53 million, received gross
proceeds of $25 million in cash, retained the right to collect
substantial incentive fees and own 33% of a world-class global credit
management business that we think will grow and prosper. Our other
platforms are also advancing robustly. In real estate, both Resource
Opportunity REIT and Resource Capital Corp. are growing and
performing well. We end our second quarter very strong -- our
businesses are doing well, we are growing, our balance sheet is in
excellent condition and we are exploring opportunities to leverage
those strengths to enhance shareholder value."

========= =========
(1) Adjusted income (loss) from continuing operations attributable to
common shareholders presents the Company's operations without the
effect of its commercial finance operations and restructuring costs.
The Company believes that this provides useful information to investors
since it allows investors to evaluate the Company's progress in both
its real estate and financial fund management segments for the three
months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 separately from its commercial
finance operations. Adjusted income (loss) from continuing operations
attributable to common shareholders should not be considered as an
alternative to loss from continuing operations attributable to common
shareholders (computed in accordance with GAAP). Instead, adjusted
income (loss) from continuing operations attributable to common
shareholders should be reviewed in connection with loss from continuing
operations attributable to common shareholders in the Company's
consolidated financial statements, to help analyze how the Company's
business is performing.
(2) Loss from commercial finance operations consists of revenues and
expenses from commercial finance operations (including gains or losses
from the sale of leases and loans, provision for credit losses and
depreciation and amortization) net of applicable tax benefits and non-
controlling interests.
(3) Dilutive shares used in the calculation of adjusted income from
continuing operations attributable to common shareholders per common
share-diluted includes an additional 918,000 shares for the three
months ended March 31, 2012, which were antidilutive for the period
and, as such, were not used in the calculation of GAAP loss from
continuing operations attributable to common shareholders per common
share-diluted.
