Current report
Preferred equity investments that are subordinate to first mortgage loans and mezzanine debt. These investments may be subject to more credit risk than subordinated debt but provide the potential for higher returns upon a liquidation of the underlying property and are typically structured to provide some credit enhancement differentiating it from the common equity in such investments. At December 31, 2025, we had one preferred equity investment included in CRE loans held for investment with a carrying value of $9.2 million. We also hold the first mortgage CRE whole loan on the underlying collateral for this investment. At December 31, 2024, we had no preferred equity investments included in CRE loans held for investment.

CRE - Term Reinvestment Financing Facility
Current report
In connection with the JPMorgan Chase 2025 Facility, we provided "bad act" guaranties pursuant to a guarantee agreement (the "2025 JPMorgan Chase Guarantee") where we are liable for 100% of the repurchase price of the purchase assets and JPMorgan Chase’s losses, costs and expenses only upon the occurrence of certain customary bad acts. The JPMorgan Chase 2025 Guarantee includes certain financial covenants required of us, including required liquidity, required capital, ratios of total indebtedness to equity and EBITDA requirements. The JPMorgan Chase 2025 Facility also includes minimum interest coverage requirements and maximum look through LTV requirements. Also, ACRES Realty Funding, Inc. ("ACRES RF"), the direct owner of the wholly-owned subsidiary borrower, executed a pledge agreement with JPMorgan Chase pursuant to which it pledged and granted to JPMorgan Chase a continuing security interest in any and all of its right, title and interest in and to the wholly-owned subsidiary, including all distributions, proceeds, payments, income and profits from its interests in the wholly-owned subsidiary.
Current report
The JPMorgan Chase 2025 Facility specifies events of default, subject to certain materiality thresholds and grace periods, customary for this type of financing arrangement, including but not limited to: payment defaults; bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings; a change of control of the ACRES SPE 2025-1, LLC, ("Seller SPE") or of us; breaches of covenants and/or certain representations and warranties; and a judgment in an amount greater than $250,000 against the Seller SPE or ACRES RF or $10.0 million against us. The remedies for such events of default are also customary for this type of financing arrangement and include the acceleration of the principal amount outstanding under the JPMorgan Chase 2025 Facility and the liquidation by JPMorgan Chase of purchased assets then subject to the JPMorgan Chase 2025 Facility. In October 2025, the JPMorgan Chase 2025 Facility was amended to allow ACRES Mortgage Fund Levered II, LLC ("AMF Levered II, LLC"), a wholly owned subsidiary of ACRES Mortgage Fund, Ltd., to purchase a non-controlling interest in the Seller SPE.

Previous report
At December 31, 2023, the CECL allowance on our CRE loan portfolio was $28.8 million or 1.5% of our $1.9 billion loan portfolio. During the year ended December 31, 2023, we recorded a provision for credit losses primarily attributable to the modeled increases in general portfolio credit risk compounded by ongoing uncertainty around the commercial real estate market’s current macroeconomic outlook, which affected our borrowers’ business plan execution and general market liquidity. In June 2023, we received the deed-in-lieu of foreclosure to a property formerly collateralizing an office loan in the East North Central region with a principal balance of $22.8 million, which resulted in a charge off of $948,000 against the allowance for credit losses.

Previous report
Current market conditions have resulted in, and may continue to result in, a dislocation in capital markets, declining real estate values of certain asset classes and increased delinquencies and defaults, resulting in increased loan modifications, increased allowances for credit losses and an increased risk to borrowers of foreclosure actions. We routinely employ rigorous risk management and underwriting practices to proactively evaluate and maintain the credit quality of our CRE loan portfolio and work closely with our borrowers to mitigate potential losses.
Previous report
During the year ended December 31, 2023, we recorded provisions for expected credit losses of $10.9 million, primarily driven by increased modeled portfolio credit risk compounded by ongoing macroeconomic uncertainty in the commercial real estate market. In June 2023, we received the deed-in-lieu of foreclosure on an office loan in the East North Central region with a principal balance of $22.8 million, which resulted in a charge off of $948,000 against the allowance for credit losses.
Previous report
At December 31, 2023, we individually evaluated three additional loans for which resolutions were reached in fiscal year 2024:
Previous report
One retail loan in the Northeast region, with a principal balance of $8.0 million at December 31, 2023, for which foreclosure was determined to be probable. The loan was modified in February 2021 to extend its maturity to December 2021. In December 2021, this loan entered payment default and was placed on nonaccrual status. The borrower filed for bankruptcy in 2023 and the property was sold to a third-party bidder at auction in February 2024. The sale closed in April 2024, at a purchase price of $8.3 million and the loan was paid off at par.
Previous report
An office loan in the East North Central region with a principal balance of $14.0 million at December 31, 2023. During the year ended December 31, 2023, the loan entered into payment default and was placed on nonaccrual status. The loan had an "as-is" appraised value in excess of its principal and interest balances, and, as such, had no allowance for CECL at December 31, 2023. In March 2024, we accepted the deed-in-lieu of foreclosure in full satisfaction of the loan and recognized a $5.8 million gain in the consolidated statement of operations upon conversion of the loan to real estate owned based on the property's fair value of $20.3 million as determined by a current appraisal. Upon receipt, the property was immediately contributed to a joint venture with an independent third party at its aforementioned fair value, and our investment in that joint venture is included in investments in unconsolidated entities on the consolidated balance sheet.
Previous report
An office loan in the Southwest region, with a principal balance of $19.1 million at December 31, 2023, for which foreclosure was determined to be probable. The loan had an initial maturity of March 2022 and was modified three times to extend its maturity to June 2022 and has since entered into payment default. However, in exchange for payments, comprising principal paydowns, interest payments and the reimbursement of certain legal fees, received between October 2022 and May 2024, we agreed to temporarily defer our right to foreclose on the property. In July 2024, we foreclosed on the loan. At the time of foreclosure, the loan had a principal balance of $14.4 million.
Previous report
We had one additional mezzanine loan that was included in assets held for sale, and that loan had no carrying value at December 31, 2024 and 2023.

We are a Maryland corporation and an externally managed REIT that is primarily focused on originating, holding and managing commercial real estate ("CRE") mortgage loans and equity investments in commercial real estate properties through direct ownership and joint ventures. Our manager is ACRES Capital, LLC (our “Manager”), a subsidiary of ACRES Capital Corp. (collectively, “ACRES”), a private commercial real estate lender exclusively dedicated to nationwide middle market CRE lending with a focus on multifamily, student housing, hospitality, office and industrial properties in top United States (“U.S.”) markets. Our Manager draws upon the management team of ACRES and its collective investment experience to provide its services. Our longer-term objective is to provide our stockholders with total returns over time, including quarterly distributions and capital appreciation, while seeking to manage the risks associated with our investment strategies as well as to maximize long-term stockholder value by maintaining stability through our available liquidity and diversified CRE loan portfolio. Our short-term strategy is to drive book value (“BV”) growth over the coming years by utilizing our NOL carryforwards and a portion of our net capital loss carryforwards. At our latest determination, which is as of our 2023 tax return filed in October 2024, we have NOL carryforwards of $32.1 million and net capital loss carryforwards of $121.9 million. By retaining future earnings, we can grow our investable base and selectively deploy the anticipated capital growth into new whole loan originations at attractive yields, which we expect will grow our earnings available for distribution.

Currently, markets are grappling with inflation and the prospect of having higher interest rates for longer than originally forecasted. These market pressures have caused continued disruption in many market segments, including the financial services, real estate and credit markets and these disruptions have affected the availability and the cost of capital. The increase in the cost of capital is expected to cause dislocations in various investment and financing markets in which we participate as we and other market participants adjust to the new financing environment.
Current wording
Currently, markets are grappling with trade tensions, geopolitical tensions, the risk of increased tariffs, inflation and labor volatility. These market pressures have caused continued disruption in many market segments, including the financial services, real estate and credit markets and these disruptions have affected the availability and the cost of capital. The increase in the cost of capital is expected to cause dislocations in various investment and financing markets in which we participate as we and other market participants adjust to the new financing environment.
Previous wording
The U.S. Federal Reserve raised the Federal Funds rate by 5.25% in 11 rate hikes between March 2022 and July 2023 to combat inflation. While the U.S Federal Reserve has lowered rates in September, November and December 2024, there is no certainty with respect to the timing and pace of potential future decreases or if such decreases will continue to occur. Interest rates may remain at or near recent highs, which creates further uncertainty for the economy and our borrowers. A rising interest rate environment generally correlates to increases in our net income. However, increases in interest rates may adversely affect our existing borrowers and could lead to nonperformance, i.e. the borrower’s inability to pay debt service. Lowering rates and decreasing costs may encourage consumer spending and accelerate corporate profit growth, which may positively impact the collateral underlying our loans and positively impact our borrowers' ability to sell or refinance in the current market.
Current wording
Since September 2024, the U.S. Federal Reserve lowered the Federal Funds rate by 1.75% in six rate cuts reaching its lowest levels since 2022. Lowering rates and decreasing costs may encourage consumer spending and accelerate corporate profit growth, which may positively impact the credit profile of the collateral underlying our loans and positively impact our borrowers' ability to sell or refinance in the current market; however, lower rates would also correlate to decreases in our net income. There is also no certainty with respect to the timing and pace of potential future decreases or if such decreases will continue to occur.

Additionally, the office property market continues to experience high vacancies, slower leasing activity and current tenants reevaluating their needs for physical office space due to remote-work trends across the country. These factors, coupled with inflation, historically higher interest rates and dislocations in market liquidity, have converged to create higher levels of uncertainty surrounding property values, which in turn, also negatively impact borrowers' ability and willingness to financially support and standby their investments in their office properties, their abilities to sell or refinance their positions in the current market and ultimately our financial results.
Current wording
The multifamily real estate market continues to be a competitive market, and as a result of investors' continued confidence in that asset class, the market for those assets continues to experience spread compression on newly originated deals. Furthermore, the office property market continues to experience high vacancies, slower leasing activity and current tenants reevaluating their needs for physical office space due to remote-work trends across the country. These factors, coupled with inflation, higher interest rates and dislocations in market liquidity, have converged to create higher levels of uncertainty surrounding property values, which in turn, also negatively impact borrowers' ability and willingness to financially support and standby their investments in their office properties, their abilities to sell or refinance their positions in the current market and ultimately our financial results.

While the CRE whole loans included in the CRE loan portfolio are substantially composed of floating-rate loans benchmarked to the one-month Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR"), asset yields are protected through the use of benchmark floors and minimum interest periods that typically range from 12 to 18 months at the time of a loan’s origination. Our benchmark floors provide asset yield protection when the benchmark rate falls below an in-place benchmark floor. Our net investment returns are enhanced by a decline in the cost of our floating-rate liabilities that do not have benchmark floors. Our net investment returns will be negatively impacted by the rising cost of our floating-rate liabilities that do not have floors until the benchmark rate is above the benchmark floor, at which point our floating-rate loans and floating-rate liabilities will be match funded, effectively locking in our net interest margin until the benchmark floor rate is activated again or the floating-rate loan is paid off or refinanced.

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. The sponsors may 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 December 31, 2024, 74.7% of the par value of our CRE loan portfolio had interest rate caps or funded debt service reserves in place with a weighted-average maturity of six months.

At December 31, 2024, our par-value $1.5 billion CRE loan portfolio had a weighted average benchmark floor of 0.97%. At December 31, 2023, our par-value $1.9 billion floating rate CRE loan portfolio, which included one whole loan without a benchmark floor, had a weighted average benchmark floor of 0.70%. With the historical 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 CRE loan, and because in all instances the benchmark 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 7A: Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk."

In the third quarter of 2024, we acquired a multifamily property in the Southwest region via foreclosure that, at acquisition, had a cost basis of $30.9 million. No gain or loss was recognized upon conversion of the CRE loan to real estate investment owned, and the property was immediately contributed to a joint venture with an unrelated third-party. Both of these investments are reported as investments in an unconsolidated entity on our consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2024.

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 December 31, 2025, the CECL allowance on our CRE loan portfolio was $20.4 million, or 1.1% of our $1.8 billion loan portfolio. During the year ended December 31, 2025, we recorded a reversal of credit losses primarily driven by net improvements in the modeled credit risk of our loan portfolio as well as loan payoffs. These reversals were offset by a general decline in projected macroeconomic factors. We also recorded a charge-off of $4.7 million for one mezzanine loan that was fully reserved for in 2022.

All of the notes issued mature in January 2037, although we have the right to call the notes beginning on the payment date in December 2023 and thereafter. As of December 31, 2024, we had not exercised this right. In March 2025, we exercised this right.

In March 2025, we exercised the optional redemption of both ACR 2021-FL1 and ACR 2021-FL2. We also entered into a master repurchase agreement with JPMorgan Chase to finance existing CRE loans as well as the origination of new CRE loans. In connection with the financing, we repaid (i) all of the outstanding senior notes at the ACR 2021-FL1 and ACR 2021-FL2 securitizations, (ii) all of the outstanding borrowings on the existing JPMorgan Chase facility and (iii) one borrowing from the Morgan Stanley facility, from the proceeds of the new financing facility. We expect to recognize a charge upon the redemption of the ACR 2021-FL1 and ACR 2021-FL2 securitizations from the recognition of unamortized deferred debt issuance costs associated with those securitizations. At December 31, 2024, there was $2.3 million of unamortized deferred debt issuance costs remaining.
