Twin Cities-Metro Certified Development Company: SBA Lending Record

What SBA's own loan files show about Twin Cities-Metro Certified Development Company as an SBA lender, and how a lender's record bears on a feasibility study.

A development company in Minnesota

Twin Cities-Metro Certified Development Company, filed under MN, has 649 loans listed in SBA's data for FY2017 to FY2026, worth $617.5 million of gross dollars approved. Every loan is SBA 504, and there are no 7(a) loans. For 504 loans SBA names Twin Cities-Metro Certified Development Company as lender of record and carries the third-party first-lien lender as free text, uncredited. The guarantee belongs to SBA, and the page describes holdings, not practices.

Minnesota only

The state table has one line: Minnesota, 622 loans. Of the 649, 403 have no named class. The named classes begin with full-service restaurants, at 41 loans, dental offices have 30, child care 28, automotive repair 24 and the fitness center 19.

Cancellation and loss floors

Cancelled share, FY2017 to FY2024 approvals: 5.4% minimum. 6.5% maximum, with undisbursed loans counted as cancelled. The cohort charge-off rate is withheld by Loan Analytics' own rule, as the cohort has fewer than 30 loans; it is not a zero.

What 504 asks of a study

A 504 deal includes a first-lien loan alongside Twin Cities-Metro Certified Development Company's portion, so the study must set out the entire capital stack, the equity, and the cash flow serving both layers. For a dental office, the second class by weight at 30 loans, test how many operatories there are, how many patients they see and what the practice or fit-out costs. For child care, 28 loans, test licensed capacity, staffing ratios and how long rooms take to fill. For a restaurant, compare sales per seat against occupancy cost. With 403 loans without a named class, unusual property types must supply their own evidence. Because the whole file sits in Minnesota, a project elsewhere should say why it belongs here, and every project needs an appraisal that supports the cost.

Limits of a single-state file

With 622 loans in Minnesota and 403 unclassified, the file describes one state and a minority of named classes. The cancellation range of 5.4% to 6.5% is the one outcome measure, since the charge-off rate is suppressed. Treat the page as a snapshot of this development company's holdings. A Minnesota project is near the centre of the record, and a project elsewhere has to make its own case.

SBA loans held by Twin Cities-Metro Certified Development Company

SBA guarantees these loans; the lender does not. The lender's name and every figure come from the U.S. Small Business Administration's public 7(a) and 504 FOIA file (data.sba.gov).

7(a) lender is the bank or lender the loan is currently assigned to (or last held it), as SBA records it; 504 lender is the Certified Development Company (CDC). 504 third-party (first-lien) lenders are free text with no identifier and are not credited.

Cancellation and charge-off

Cancelled after approval, FY2017 to FY2024 approvals (a floor)5.4%
The same, counting loans still undisbursed as cancelled (a ceiling)6.5%
Charged off to date, FY2017 to FY2021 disbursed loans (a floor)withheld

Both rates are floors. SBA withholds the status of open loans, so a loan counts as charged off only once SBA reports it; a rate needs at least 30 loans in its cohort and is otherwise not reported.
