NexPoint (NREF) Q2 EAD Drops 37%
NexPoint Real Estate Finance (NYSE:NREF), a real estate finance company focused on originating and investing in real estate debt and equity, reported its second quarter 2025 results on July 31, 2025. The most critical news was that Non-GAAP earnings per diluted common share for Q2 2025 were $0.46, matching both the analyst consensus and the midpoint of its own non-GAAP guidance. Cash available for distribution (non-GAAP) also landed within guidance at $0.46 per diluted share. Despite these in-line results, Earnings available for distribution (non-GAAP) and cash available for distribution (non-GAAP) both posted sizable year-over-year declines, and Dividend coverage ratios (non-GAAP, based on EAD and CAD) remained just under full coverage. Taken together, the quarter reflected a stable but cautious operating environment, with continued portfolio discipline and prudent risk management but with pressure on distributable earnings.
