Current report

Net Change in Interest Expense for the Comparative three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023:

Current report

Includes amortization expense of $167,000 and $157,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Current report

Includes fee income of $3.2 million and $3.9 million on our floating-rate CRE whole loans for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Current report

Includes amortization expense of $331,000 and $311,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Current report

Aggregate operating expenses decreased by $2.3 million and $2.1 million for the comparative three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023. We attribute the change to the following:

Current report

Real estate expenses. The decrease of $756,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2024 was primarily attributable to the acquisition-date accrual of property taxes on a Chicago office property that we acquired through deed-in-lieu of foreclosure in June 2023.

Current report

Provision for credit losses. The provision for credit losses of $1.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and $6.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 were primarily driven by worsening macroeconomic factors due to higher interest rates longer than expected offset by a decrease in modeled credit risk for improved property-level performance and loan payoffs. Please refer to the "Financing Receivables" section for more information on our provision for credit losses.

Current report

Other Income. The increase of $1.2 million during each of the comparative three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 is primarily attributed to the reversal of warranty reserves and representations related to a discontinued residential lending business.

Current report

Includes a mezzanine loan of $2.1 million, at amortized cost, that has a fixed interest rate of 15.0% at June 30, 2024.

Current report

A multifamily loan in the Southeast region, with a principal balance of $9.3 million at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively, for which foreclosure was determined to be probable. This loan had an as-is appraised value in excess of its principal, and, as such, had no CECL allowance June 30, 2024.

Current report

At December 31, 2023, we individually evaluated two additional loans for which resolutions were reached in fiscal year 2024:

Current report

Includes three CRE whole loans, with total amortized costs of $88.5 million, that are past due on interest payments at June 30, 2024.

Current report

A multifamily loan with an amortized cost of $70.6 million, representing 4.1% of the total amortized cost of the portfolio, was modified to: (i) extend its maturity from January 2025 to January 2026 and (ii) provide for 2.00% per annum of the interest rate to be deferred until payoff. We also entered into a mezzanine loan with a total commitment of $6.0 million, of which $2.3 million was funded at June 30, 2024. The loan has a fixed rate of 15.00% that accrues and will be due at payoff in January 2026. In connection with the modification, the borrower renewed the interest rate cap.

Current report

These loans were performing in accordance with the modified contractual terms as of June 30, 2024. At June 30, 2024, these loans had a risk rating of "4." Loans with a risk rating of "4" are included in the determination of our general CECL reserves.

Current report

The increase of $772,000 in accrued interest receivable was primarily attributable to accrued deferred interest on modified loans offset by loan payoffs.

Current report

Total equity at June 30, 2024 was $444.4 million compared to total equity at December 31, 2023 of $446.2 million. The decrease in equity during the six months ended June 30, 2024 was primarily attributable to common stock and preferred stock repurchases offset by current earnings for the six months ended June 30, 2024.

Current report

For the three months ended June 30, 2024, there was no incentive compensation payable to the Manager.

Current report

Excludes accrued interest payable of $452,000 and deferred debt issuance costs of $1.6 million.
Removed paragraphs (15)

Previous report

We historically used derivative financial instruments, including interest rate swaps, to hedge a portion of the interest rate risk associated with our borrowings. In April 2020, we terminated all interest rate hedges in conjunction with the disposition of our financed commercial mortgage-backed securities (“CMBS”) portfolio. At March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we had unrealized losses in connection with the terminated hedges of $4.5 million and $5.0 million, respectively, which will be amortized into interest expense over the remaining life of the debt. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, we recognized amortization expense on these terminated contracts of $420,000.

Previous report

Includes amortization expense of $164,000 and $155,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Previous report

Aggregate operating expenses increased by $169,000 for the comparative three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023. We attribute the change to the following:

Previous report

Real estate expenses. The increase of $671,000 for the comparative three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 was primarily attributable to incremental real estate operating expenses from the acquisition of an office building through deed-in-lieu of foreclosure in June 2023. This was partially offset by the loss of expenses from the sale of a hotel property in February 2023.

Previous report

The total amortized cost of CRE loans excluded accrued interest receivable of $11.8 million at both March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

Previous report

The total amortized cost of CRE loans excluded accrued interest receivable of $11.8 million and at both March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

Previous report

The increase of $106,000 in accrued interest receivable was primarily attributable to rising benchmark rates.

Previous report

Total equity at March 31, 2024 was $443.2 million, comprising $224.0 million of preferred equity and $219.2 million of common equity, and gave effect to $4.4 million of net unrealized losses on our terminated cash flow hedges, shown as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss. Total equity at December 31, 2023 was $446.2 million, comprising $226.5 million of preferred equity and $219.7 million of common equity, and after giving effect to $4.8 million of net unrealized losses on our terminated cash flow hedges, shown as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss. The decrease in equity during the three months ended March 31, 2024 was primarily attributable to distributions on our preferred stock, repurchases of preferred stock and common stock repurchases. This is partially offset by net income prior to preferred distributions, contributions from non-controlling interests and non-cash amortization of terminated cash flow hedges.

Previous report

Excludes accrued interest payable of $544,000 and deferred debt issuance costs of $1.9 million.
Reworded paragraphs (103)

Previous wording

We originate transitional floating-rate CRE loans with a target size of between $10.0 million and $100.0 million. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, we did not originate new floating-rate CRE loans. Loan payoffs during the three months ended March 31, 2024 were $80.8 million, offset by net funded commitments of $11.4 million, producing a net decrease to the portfolio of $69.4 million. During the year ended December 31, 2023, we selectively originated three floating-rate CRE whole loans with total commitments of $68.2 million. Loan payoffs during the year ended December 31, 2023 were $293.1 million, offset by net funded commitments of $40.5 million, producing a net decrease to the portfolio of $184.4 million.

Previous wording

First mortgage loans, which we refer to as whole loans. These loans are typically secured by first liens on CRE property, including the following property types: multifamily, student housing, hospitality, office, self-storage and retail. All but two of our CRE whole loans were current on contractual payments at March 31, 2024.

Previous wording

In a business environment where benchmark rates are increasing significantly, cash flows of the CRE assets underlying our loans may not be sufficient to pay debt service on our loans, which could result in non-performance or default. We partially mitigate this risk by generally requiring our borrowers to purchase interest rate cap agreements with non-affiliated, well-capitalized third parties and by selectively requiring our borrowers to have and maintain debt service reserves. These interest rate caps generally mature prior to the maturity date of the loan and the borrowers are required to pay to extend them. In most cases the sponsors will need to fund additional equity into the properties to cover these costs as the property may not generate sufficient cash flow to pay these costs. At March 31, 2024, 77% of the par value of our CRE loan portfolio had interest rate caps in place with a weighted-average maturity of six months.

Previous wording

At March 31, 2024, our par-value $1.8 billion floating-rate CRE loan portfolio had a weighted average benchmark floor of 0.74%, while at December 31, 2023, this floor was 0.70%. With the trend of rising benchmark rates, we have seen the coupons on all of our floating-rate assets and debt rise accordingly. Because we have equity invested in each floating-rate loan, and because in all instances the benchmark interest rates are above our loan floors, the rise in interest rates resulted in an increase in our net interest income. See “Interest Rate Risk” in “Item 3: Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.”

Current wording

Previous wording

From time to time, we may acquire real estate property through direct equity investments or as a result of our lending activities. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, we acquired an office property located in the East North Central region via deed-in-lieu of foreclosure that, at acquisition, had a cost basis of $14.0 million and a fair value of $20.3 million. We recognized a $5.8 million gain upon converting the loan to real estate owned and immediately contributed the property into a joint venture with an unrelated third-party, seeking to maximize the property's value through a multifamily conversion. We reported this investment as an investment in an unconsolidated entity on our consolidated balance sheets.

The existence of net capital loss carryforwards available until December 31, 2025 allows for potential future capital gains on certain of these investments to be shielded from income taxes.

Current wording

At June 30, 2024, the net carrying value of our net real estate-related assets and liabilities was $161.1 million on six properties owned, four of which are included in investments in real estate and two of which are included in properties held for sale on our consolidated balance sheets.

Previous wording

Each of our CRE debt securitizations initially provided for a two-year reinvestment period that allowed us to reinvest CRE loan payoffs and principal paydown proceeds into the securitizations, pending certain eligibility criteria are met and rating agency approval is obtained. The reinvestment periods on both our securitizations ended in May 2023 and December 2023.

Previous wording

We reevaluate our current expected credit losses ("CECL") allowance quarterly, incorporating our current expectations of macroeconomic factors considered in the determination of our CECL reserves. At March 31, 2024, the CECL allowance on our CRE loan portfolio was $33.7 million, or 1.9% of our $1.8 billion loan portfolio. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, we recorded a provision for credit losses primarily attributable to worsening macroeconomic factors due to higher interest rates lasting longer than expected, compounded by an increase in modeled credit risk from the expected worsening of property-level performance.

Current wording

We reevaluate our current expected credit losses ("CECL") allowance quarterly, incorporating our current expectations of macroeconomic factors considered in the determination of our CECL reserves. At June 30, 2024, the CECL allowance on our CRE loan portfolio was $35.0 million, or 2.0% of our $1.7 billion loan portfolio. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, we recorded a provision for credit losses primarily attributable to worsening macroeconomic factors, including, but not limited to, higher interest rates lasting longer than expected pressuring CRE pricing, offset, in part, by a decrease in modeled credit risk resulting from payoffs and net improvements in property-level performance.

Additionally, the decline in our CECL reserves from our highest reserve balance at June 30, 2020 of $61.1 million, or 3.4% of the par balance of our CRE loan portfolio, to our current reserve balance at March 31, 2024 of $33.7 million, or 1.9% of the par balance of our CRE loan portfolio, has been due to the following: the successful resolution of our individually evaluated loans with specific reserves, the overall newer vintage of our CRE loan portfolio (with only 9.4% of the portfolio, at March 31, 2024, being originated prior to the fourth quarter of 2020) as well as the increased percentage allocation of our CRE loan portfolio to multifamily loans over time. Multifamily loans have historically had the lowest credit losses of any asset class, and our percentage allocation of our CRE loan portfolio to multifamily has grown from 58.4% at June 30, 2020 to 79.1% at March 31, 2024.
