Eugene W. Landy, President, stated, "The six-month results were satisfactory. The decline in net income was due mainly to decreased gains on securities transactions and decreased interest and dividend income. Management has decreased the securities portfolio in order to invest in real property. Monmouth Capital Corporation has significant funds to invest in real property acquisitions and our ability to grow earnings depends on our ability to add to our property portfolio. Management is seeking new real property acquisitions in a very competitive market."
Monmouth Capital Corporation is currently operating as a diversified real estate investment trust (REIT), investing in real estate equities, mortgages, mortgage-backed securities and other REIT securities. The Company's equity portfolio consists of eleven industrial properties in Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Minnesota, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Texas and Virginia.
MONM is part of a family of REITs including UMH Properties, Inc. , which invests in manufactured home communities, and Monmouth Real Estate Investment Corporation , which invests in net-leased industrial properties on long-term leases to investment grade tenants. MONM pursues any real estate opportunities other than the specialized areas of UMH Properties, Inc. and Monmouth Real Estate Investment Corporation.
