What Is the Investigation About?

On February 11, 2026, FBRT released its fourth quarter and full year 2025 financial results, revealing, among other things, quarterly GAAP net income of $18.4 million, a significant decline from $30.2 million in the same quarter the prior year, and quarterly earnings per share of $0.13, a significant decline from $0.29 in the same quarter the prior year.

The Company further disclosed that “it has taken longer to resolve and sell the real estate than [it] originally planned. This has led to over-distributing capital to investors.” Thus, “[i]n order to stabilize [its] book value” the Company had “reset the quarterly dividend.”

On this news, FBRT’s stock price fell $1.44, or 14.2%, to close at $8.71 per share on February 12, 2026, thereby injuring investors.
