Current report
Technological developments in artificial intelligence, including machine learning, generative artificial intelligence and similar technologies that collect, aggregate, analyze or generate data or other materials (collectively “AI”), and their current and potential future applications including in the real estate, capital and financial markets, as well as the legal and regulatory frameworks within which they operate, are rapidly evolving. While we and our Advisor have not directly integrated the use of AI in our and its business currently, our Advisor or Sub-Advisor could integrate AI into their business in the future. We and our Advisor or Sub-Advisor may also be exposed to the risks of AI if third-party service providers or any counterparties, whether or not known to us, also use AI in their business activities. We and our Advisor or Sub-Advisor may not be in a position to control the use of AI technology in third-party products or services. Use of AI could include the input of confidential information in contravention of applicable policies, contractual or other obligations or restrictions, resulting in such confidential information becoming accessible by other third-party AI applications and users. The use of AI could also exacerbate or create new and unpredictable risks to our business and the business of our Advisor and Sub-Advisor, including by potentially significantly disrupting the markets in which we operate or subjecting us and our Advisor or Sub-Advisor to increased competition and regulation, which could materially and adversely affect the business, financial condition or results of operations of us and our Advisor or Sub-Advisor. The use of AI by bad actors could heighten the sophistication and effectiveness of cybersecurity attacks experienced by us and our Advisor or Sub-Advisor. Further, AI technology is generally highly reliant on the collection and analysis of large amounts of data, and it is not possible or practicable to incorporate all relevant data into the model that AI technology utilizes to operate. Certain data in such models will inevitably contain a degree of inaccuracy and error. As AI technology and its applications continue to develop rapidly, it is impossible to predict the future risks that may arise from such developments to our industry or business.
Current report
September 2024 as inflation concerns lessened. During 2025, the U.S. Federal Reserve made three additional interest rate reductions and has not made any projections of further rate changes for 2026; however, the forward yield curve indicates that further reductions are expected.
Current report
We may incur mortgage indebtedness and other borrowings, which could increase our financial risks, could hinder our ability to make distributions and could decrease the value of our stockholders’ investments.
Current report
The Company’s REO assets have been and may continue to be financed in substantial part by borrowing, which increases our exposure to loss. The use of leverage involves a high degree of financial risk and will increase the exposure of the investments to adverse economic factors such as rising interest rates, downturns in the economy or deteriorations in the condition of the REO assets. Principal and interest payments on indebtedness (including mortgages having “balloon” payments) will have to be made regardless of the sufficiency of our cash flow. If mortgage payments are not made when due, one or more of the REO assets may be lost (and our investment therein rendered valueless) as a result of foreclosure by the mortgage. A foreclosure of the REO assets may also have substantial adverse tax consequences for us.
Current report
Effective internal control over financial reporting and disclosure controls are necessary for us to provide reliable financial reports, effectively prevent fraud, and to operate successfully as a public company. If we cannot provide reliable financial reports or prevent fraud, our reputation and operating results could be harmed. We are currently required to perform system and process evaluation and testing of our internal control over financial reporting to allow management to report on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, and, in the future, if we were to become an accelerated filer or large accelerated filer, we may be required to have our independent registered public accounting firm attest to the same, as required by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. If a material weakness or significant deficiency was to be identified in our internal control over financial reporting, we may also identify deficiencies in some of our disclosure controls and procedures that we believe require remediation. If we or our independent registered public accounting firm discover deficiencies or weaknesses, we will make efforts to improve our internal controls over financial reporting and disclosure controls. However, there is no assurance that we will be successful. Any failure to maintain effective controls or timely effect any necessary improvement of our internal controls over financial reporting and disclosure controls could harm operating results or cause us to fail to meet our reporting obligations. Ineffective internal control over financial reporting and disclosure controls could also cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information.
Current report
There have been significant changes, and continue to be ongoing discussion and commentary regarding potential significant changes to U.S. trade policies, treaties and tariffs, creating significant uncertainty about the future relationship between the United States and other countries with respect to trade policies, treaties and tariffs. These developments, or the perception that any of them could occur, may have a material adverse effect on global economic conditions and the stability of global financial markets, and may significantly reduce global trade and, in particular, trade between the impacted nations and the United States. Any of these factors could depress economic activity and have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Previous report
Compliance with the SEC’s Regulation Best Interest by participating broker-dealers may negatively impact our ability to raise capital in the future, which would harm our ability to achieve our investment objectives.
Previous report
Broker-dealers must comply with Regulation Best Interest, which, among other requirements, establishes a new standard of conduct for broker-dealers and natural persons who are associated persons of a broker-dealer when making a recommendation of any securities transaction or investment strategy involving securities to a retail customer. The full impact of Regulation Best Interest on participating broker-dealers cannot be determined at this time, and it may reduce our ability to raise capital in the future, which would harm our ability to create a diversified portfolio of investments and ability to achieve our investment objectives.
Previous report
Changes in the level of interest rates and credit spreads also may affect our ability to make loans or investments, the value of our loans and investments and our ability to realize gains from the disposition of assets. Increases in interest rates and credit spreads may also negatively affect demand for loans and could result in higher borrower default rates. In light of elevated inflation, the U.S. Federal Reserve increased interest rates numerous times in recent years, which increased, and could continue to increase, our borrowers’ interest payments. Although decelerating, inflation remains above the U.S. Federal Reserve’s target levels. Despite multiple federal fund rate decreases over the course of 2024, interest rates have remained elevated, with the U.S. Federal Reserve indicating in early 2025 an expectation of slower rate decreases moving forward. A slower-than-expected decrease, or a further increase, in interest rates would continue to present a challenge to real estate valuations. Such factors are even more challenging in the traditional office market, where more troubled assets are likely to emerge, as well as other properties with long-term leases that do not provide for short-term rent increases. Interest rate increases also have had and may in the future have adverse effects on commercial real estate property values, and, for certain of our borrowers have contributed, and may continue to contribute, to loan non-performance, modifications, defaults, foreclosures, and/or property sales, which could result in us realizing losses on our investments.
Previous report
We may obtain only limited warranties when we purchase a property, which will increase the risk that we may lose some or all of our invested capital in the property or rental income from the property which, in turn, could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results from operations and our ability to pay distributions to our stockholders.
Previous report
The seller of a property often sells such property in an “as is” condition on a “where is” basis and “with all faults,” without any warranties of merchantability or fitness for a particular use or purpose. In addition, the related real estate purchase and sale agreements may contain only limited warranties, representations and indemnifications that will only survive for a limited period after the closing. Despite our efforts, we, the Advisor and the Sub-Advisor may fail to uncover all material risks during our diligence process. The purchase of properties with limited warranties increases the risk that we may lose some or all of our invested capital in the property, as well as the loss of rental income from that property if an issue should arise that decreases the value of that property and is not covered by the limited warranties. If any of these results occur, it may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations and our ability to pay distributions to our stockholders.
Previous report
If we acquire single-tenant net leased properties, we may have difficulty selling or re-leasing those properties, and this lack of liquidity may limit our ability to quickly change our portfolio in response to changes in economic or other conditions.
Previous report
Real estate investments generally have less liquidity compared to other financial assets, and this lack of liquidity may limit our ability to quickly change our portfolio in response to changes in economic or other conditions. The leases we may enter into or acquire may be for properties that are especially suited to the particular needs of our tenant. With these properties, if the current lease is terminated or not renewed, we may be required to renovate the property or to make rent concessions in order to lease the property to another tenant. In addition, if we are forced to sell the property, we may have difficulty selling it to a party other than the tenant due to the special purpose for which the property may have been designed. These and other limitations may affect our ability to sell properties without adversely affecting returns to our stockholders.
Previous report
Our ability to fully control the management of our single-tenant, net leased properties may be limited.
Previous report
The tenants or managers of single-tenant, net leased properties are responsible for maintenance and other day-to-day management of the properties. If a property is not adequately maintained in accordance with the terms of the applicable lease, we may incur expenses for deferred maintenance expenditures or other liabilities once the property becomes free of the lease. While our leases will generally provide for recourse against the tenant in these instances, a bankrupt or financially-troubled tenant may be more likely to defer maintenance and it may be more difficult to enforce remedies against such a tenant. In addition, to the extent tenants are unable to successfully conduct their operations, their ability to pay rent may be adversely affected. Although we endeavor to monitor, on an ongoing basis, compliance by tenants with their lease obligations and other factors that could affect the financial performance of our properties, such monitoring may not always ascertain or forestall deterioration either in the condition of a property or the financial circumstances of a tenant.
Previous report
On March 24, 2020, our Board suspended the payment of distributions to our stockholders after considering various factors, including the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the economy and the inability to accurately calculate our NAV. On July 30, 2020, our Board began authorizing monthly distributions again consistent with its practice prior to the pandemic, but our Board may determine to formally suspend, reduce or modify our distributions in the future.
Previous report
We are not required to comply with certain reporting requirements, including those relating to auditor’s attestation reports on the effectiveness of our system of internal control over financial reporting, accounting standards and disclosure about our executive compensation, that apply to certain other public companies.
Previous report
The Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act (the “JOBS Act”) contains provisions that, among other things, relax certain reporting requirements for emerging growth companies, including certain requirements relating to accounting standards and compensation disclosure. We are classified as an emerging growth company. For as long as we are an emerging growth company, which may be up to five full fiscal years, unlike other public companies, we are not required to (1) provide an auditor’s attestation report on the effectiveness of our system of internal control over financial reporting pursuant to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, (2) comply with any new or revised financial accounting standards applicable to public companies until such standards are also applicable to private companies under Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act, (3) comply with any new requirements adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (“PCAOB”) requiring mandatory audit firm rotation or a supplement to the auditor’s report in which the auditor would be required to provide additional information about the audit and the financial statements of the issuer, (4) comply with any new audit rules adopted by the PCAOB after April 5, 2012 unless the SEC determines otherwise, (5) provide certain disclosure regarding executive compensation required of larger public companies or (6) hold stockholder advisory votes on executive compensation.
Previous report
Once we are no longer an emerging growth company, so long as our shares of common stock are not traded on a securities exchange, we will be deemed to be a “non-accelerated filer” under the Exchange Act, and as a non-accelerated filer, we will be exempt from compliance with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. In addition, so long as we are externally managed by the Advisor and we do not directly compensate our executive officers, or reimburse the Advisor or its affiliates for salaries, bonuses, benefits and severance payments for persons who also serve as one of our executive officers or as an executive officer of the Advisor, we do not have any executive compensation, making the exemptions listed in (5) and (6) above generally inapplicable.
Previous report
We cannot predict if investors will find our common stock less attractive because we choose to rely on any of the exemptions discussed above.
Previous report
As noted above, under the JOBS Act, emerging growth companies can delay adopting new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until such time as those standards apply to private companies. We have elected to opt out of this transition period, and will therefore comply with new or revised accounting standards on the applicable dates on which the adoption of these standards is required for non-emerging growth companies. This election is irrevocable.

Previous wording
Our accumulated deficit as of December 31, 2024 and 2023 was $95.0 million and $89.0 million, respectively. We may continue to have an accumulated deficit in the future.
Current wording
Our accumulated deficit as of December 31, 2025 and 2024 was $115.1 million and $95.0 million, respectively. We may continue to have an accumulated deficit in the future.
Previous wording
As a result, we may not be able to pay distributions to our stockholders at any given time in the future, and the level of any distributions we do make to our common stockholders may not increase or even be maintained over time, any of which could materially and adversely affect the value of our common stockholders’ investments. Though we paid distributions to our common stockholders on a monthly basis from December 5, 2016 to March 24, 2020, our Board suspended distributions from March 24, 2020 to July 30, 2020 as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and may do so again in the future.
Current wording

Previous wording
We may not generate sufficient earnings and cash flow from operations to fully fund distributions to stockholders. Therefore, we have and may again choose to use cash flows from financing activities, which include borrowings (including borrowings secured by our assets), net proceeds of the Public Offerings, or other sources to fund distributions to our stockholders. We may be required to continue to fund our regular distributions from a combination of some of these sources if our investments fail to perform as anticipated, if expenses are greater than expected and due to numerous other factors. We have not established a limit on the amount of our distributions that may be paid from any of these sources. We have funded distributions, in part, using offering proceeds and, in the future, we may again pay distributions from sources other than earnings and cash flow from operations. During the year ended December 31, 2024, we did not use offering proceeds to pay distributions.

Previous wording
The Advisor seeks to determine the fair value of our investments as of the last day of each month. Within the parameters of our valuation guidelines, the valuation methodologies used to value our assets involve subjective judgments. In general, the loan portfolio is valued at amortized cost, subject to impairment testing. Impairment testing is subjective in nature as it partially relies on the Advisor’s judgment on whether a borrower can repay the loan. Valuation methodologies also involve assumptions and opinions about future events, which may or may not turn out to be correct. Valuations and appraisals of our investments are only estimates of fair value. Ultimate realization of the value of an asset depends to a great extent on economic and other conditions beyond our control and the control of the Advisor. Further, valuations do not necessarily represent the price at which an asset would sell, since market prices of assets can only be determined by negotiation between a willing buyer and seller. Therefore, the valuations of our investments may not correspond to the timely realizable value upon a sale of those assets. There will be no retroactive adjustment in the valuation of such assets, the price of our shares of common stock, the price we paid to repurchase shares of our common stock or fees we paid to the Advisor and the Dealer Manager to the extent such valuations prove to not accurately reflect the true estimate of value and are not a precise measure of realizable value. Because the price at which shares may be repurchased by us pursuant to our share repurchase plan is based on our estimated NAV per share, stockholders may receive less than realizable value for their investment.

Previous wording
The Advisor’s determination of our monthly NAV per share for each class of our common stock is based in part on estimates of the values of our illiquid assets in accordance with valuation guidelines approved by our Board. As a result, our most recently published NAV per share may not fully reflect any or all changes in value that may have occurred since the most recent valuation. We suspended the calculation of our NAV from March 24, 2020 to July 20, 2020 as a result of uncertainty caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, and we may do so again in the future. The Advisor reviews our CRE debt and CRE securities investments for the occurrence of any asset-specific or market-driven event it believes may cause a material valuation change in the asset valuation, but it may be difficult to reflect fully and accurately rapidly changing market conditions or material events that may impact the value of our illiquid assets or liabilities between valuations, or to obtain quickly complete information regarding any such events. As a result, the NAV per share may not reflect a material event until such time as sufficient information is available and analyzed, and the financial impact is fully evaluated, such that our NAV may be appropriately adjusted in accordance with our valuation guidelines. Depending on the circumstances, the resulting potential disparity in our NAV may negatively affect stockholders who have their shares repurchased, or stockholders who buy new shares, or our existing stockholders.

Previous wording
Our Second Public Offering was being made on a “best efforts” basis, meaning that the Dealer Manager and broker-dealers participating in the distribution of shares in our Second Public Offering (“participating broker-dealers”) were only required to use their best efforts to sell our shares and had no firm commitment or obligation to purchase any shares of our common stock in our Public Offerings. Our Second Public Offering is currently suspended. As of March 13, 2025, we had received and accepted investors’ subscriptions for and issued 794,715 Class A shares, 464,881 Class T shares, 53,815 Class D shares and 489,069 Class I shares in the IPO and Second Public Offering, resulting in gross proceeds of $44.9 million, including proceeds from the DRP. If we are unable to raise future equity capital, we will make fewer investments resulting in less diversification in terms of the type, number and size of investments that we make. Moreover, the potential impact of any single asset’s performance on the overall performance of our portfolio increases. Further, we have certain fixed operating expenses, including certain expenses as a public reporting company, regardless of whether we were able to raise substantial funds in our Second Public Offering. Our inability to raise future equity capital would increase our fixed operating expenses as a percentage of gross income, reducing our net income and limiting our ability to pay distributions to our stockholders.

The method for calculating our NAV, including the components that will be used in calculating our NAV, is not prescribed by rules of the SEC or any other regulatory agency. Further, there are no accounting rules or standards that prescribe which components should be used in calculating NAV, and our NAV will not be audited by our independent registered public accounting firm. We calculate and publish our monthly NAV solely for purposes of establishing the price at which we sell and repurchase shares of our common stock, and stockholders should not view our NAV as a measure of our historical or future financial condition or performance. The components and methodology that is used in calculating our NAV may differ from those used by other companies now or in the future.

We rely upon the Sub-Advisor to identify suitable investments. The investment professionals of the Sub-Advisor must determine which investment opportunities to recommend to us and to existing and future investment vehicles which are affiliated with Sound Point CRE, the parent of the Sub-Advisor. The Sub-Advisor may not be successful in locating suitable investments on financially attractive terms, and we may not achieve our investment objectives. If we, through the Sub-Advisor, are unable to find suitable investments promptly, we may hold cash from any source, such as payoffs of our mortgage loans, in an interest-bearing account or invest the proceeds in short-term assets. We expect that the income we earn on these temporary investments will not be substantial. Further, we may use the principal amount of these investments, and any returns generated on these investments, to pay fees and expenses in connection with the Public Offerings and distributions. Therefore, delays in investing proceeds we raise from the Public Offerings or other large amounts of cash received could impact our ability to generate cash flow for distributions or to achieve our investment objectives.

Previous wording
The foreclosure process may be lengthy and expensive. When we foreclose on an asset, we take title to the property securing that asset, and then own and operate such property as “real estate owned.” Owning and operating real property involves risks that are different (and in many ways more significant) than the risks faced in owning a loan secured by that property. The costs associated with operating and redeveloping a property, including any operating shortfalls and significant capital expenditures, could materially and adversely affect our results of operations, financial conditions and liquidity. In addition, we may end up owning a property that we would not otherwise have decided to acquire directly at the price of our original investment or at all, and the liquidation proceeds upon sale of the underlying real estate may not be sufficient to recover our cost basis in the loan, resulting in a loss to us. Whether or not we have participated in the negotiation of the terms of any such loans, there can be no assurance as to the adequacy of the protection of the terms of the applicable loan, including the validity or enforceability of the loan and the maintenance of the anticipated priority and perfection of the applicable security interests. Furthermore, claims may be asserted by lenders or borrowers that might interfere with enforcement of our rights. Borrowers may resist foreclosure actions by asserting numerous claims, counterclaims and defenses against us, including, without limitation, lender liability claims and defenses, even when the assertions may have no basis in fact, in an effort to prolong the foreclosure action and seek to force the lender into a modification of the loan or a favorable buy-out of the borrower’s position in the loan. Foreclosure actions in some U.S. states can take several years or more to litigate and may also be time consuming and expensive to complete in other U.S. states and foreign jurisdictions in which we do business. At any time prior to or during the foreclosure proceedings, the borrower may file for bankruptcy, which would have the effect of staying the foreclosure actions and further delaying or even preventing the foreclosure process, and could potentially result in a reduction or discharge of a borrower’s debt. Foreclosure may create a negative public perception of the related property, resulting in a diminution of its value. Even if we are successful in foreclosing on a loan, the liquidation proceeds upon sale of the underlying real estate may not be sufficient to recover our cost basis in the loan, resulting in a loss to us. Furthermore, any costs or delays involved in the foreclosure of the loan or a liquidation of the underlying property will further reduce the net sale proceeds and, therefore, increase any such losses to us.

We are subject to the risks inherent in the ownership and operation of real estate and real estate-related businesses and assets. Such investments are subject to the potential for deterioration of real estate fundamentals and the risk of adverse changes in local market and economic conditions, which may include changes in supply of and demand for competing properties in an area, changes in interest rates and related increases in borrowing costs, fluctuations in the average occupancy and room rates for hotel properties, changes in demand for commercial office properties (including as a result of an increased prevalence of remote work), changes in the financial resources of tenants, defaults by borrowers or tenants and the lack of availability of mortgage funds, which may render the sale or refinancing of properties difficult or impracticable. In addition, investments in real estate and real estate-related businesses and assets may be subject to the risk of environmental liabilities, contingent liabilities upon disposition of assets, casualty or condemnations losses, energy supply shortages, natural disasters, climate-related risks (including transition risks and acute and chronic physical risks), acts of God, terrorist attacks, war, pandemics or other public health events (such as COVID-19), and other events that are beyond our control, and various uninsured or uninsurable risks. Because landlord claims for future rent are capped under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, tenants in our properties may be incentivized to enter bankruptcy proceedings for the purpose of rejecting leases at our properties and reducing liability thereunder. Further, investments in real estate and real estate-related businesses and assets are subject to changes in law and regulation, including in respect of building, environmental and zoning laws, rent control and other regulations impacting residential real estate investments and changes to tax laws and regulations, including real property and income tax rates and the taxation of business entities and the deductibility of corporate interest expense. In addition, if we acquire direct or indirect interests in undeveloped land or underdeveloped real property, which may often be non-income producing, we will be subject to the risks normally associated with such assets and development activities, including risks relating to the availability and timely receipt of zoning and other regulatory or environmental approvals, the cost and timely completion of construction (including risks beyond our control, such as weather or labor conditions or material shortages) and the availability of both construction and permanent financing on favorable terms.

As such, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected if our tenants default on their rental payments or other lease obligations. Rental payment defaults, including those caused by the current economic climate or tenant liquidity limitations resulting from adverse developments affecting our tenants, could have an impact on our results of operations.

Previous wording
Our real estate portfolio includes two office assets we recently acquired through foreclosure, which have generally experienced a decrease in occupancy and value. Current economic conditions could lead our office tenants electing not to renew their leases, or to renew their leases for less space than they currently occupy, which could further increase vacancy rates and decrease rental income. Remote and hybrid work practices are likely to continue in a post-pandemic environment. As a result of the increased bargaining power of tenants, we may be required to spend increased amounts for property improvements. Additionally, if substantial office space reconfiguration is required, it may be more attractive for our tenants to pursue relocating to other office space than renewing their leases and renovating their existing space, which could have a material adverse effect on us.

Previous wording
Our real estate portfolio includes one multifamily asset we recently acquired through foreclosure. Accordingly, we are subject to risks inherent in investments in the multifamily industry. A decrease in the demand for multifamily housing would likely have an adverse effect on our rental revenues. Demand for multifamily housing has been and could be adversely affected by weakness in the national, regional, and local economies and changes in supply of or demand for similar or competing multifamily housing properties in an area. To the extent that any of these conditions occur, they are likely to affect demand and market rents for multifamily housing, which could cause a decrease in our rental revenue. Further, the underlying value of our multifamily asset depends upon the ability of the residents of such property to generate enough income to pay their rents in a timely manner, and the success of our investment will depend upon the occupancy levels, rental income, and operating expenses of such property. Residents’ inability to timely pay their rents may be impacted by employment and other constraints on their personal finances, including debts, purchases, and other factors. These and other changes beyond our control may adversely affect our residents’ ability to make rental payments. In the event of a resident default or bankruptcy, we may experience delays in enforcing our rights as landlord and may incur costs in protecting our investment.

The Advisor is paid a management fee and a performance fee for its services that are based on the value of our investment portfolio as determined in connection with our determination of NAV, which is calculated by the Advisor in accordance with our valuation guidelines. The calculation of our NAV includes certain subjective judgments with respect to estimating, for example, our accrued expenses, net portfolio income and liabilities, and therefore, our NAV may not correspond to realizable value upon a sale of those assets. The Advisor may benefit by us retaining ownership of our assets at times when our stockholders may be better served by the sale or disposition of our assets in order to avoid a reduction in our NAV. If our NAV is calculated in a way that is not reflective of our actual net asset value, then the then-current transaction price of shares of our common stock on a given date may not accurately reflect the value of our portfolio, and our stockholders’ shares may be worth less than the then-current transaction price.

In recent years, numerous legislative, judicial and administrative changes have been made in the provisions of U.S. federal income tax laws applicable to investments similar to an investment in shares of our common stock. The 2017 tax legislation commonly referred to as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act resulted in fundamental changes to the Code, with many of the changes applicable to individuals applying only through December 31, 2025. Further changes to the tax laws are possible. In particular, the federal income taxation of REITs may be modified, possibly with retroactive effect, by legislative, administrative or judicial action at any time.

Rules enacted by the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act may limit our ability (and the ability of entities that are not treated as disregarded entities for U.S. federal income tax purposes and in which we hold an interest) to deduct interest expense. Under amended Section 163(j) of the Code, the deduction for business interest expense may be limited to the amount of the taxpayer’s business interest income plus 30% of the taxpayer’s “adjusted taxable income” unless the taxpayer’s gross receipts do not exceed $25 million per year during the applicable testing period or the taxpayer qualifies to elect and elects to be treated as an “electing real property trade or business.” A taxpayer’s adjusted taxable income will start with its taxable income and add back items of non-business income and expense, business interest income and business interest expense, net operating losses, any deductions for “qualified business income,” and, in taxable years beginning before January 1, 2022, any deductions for depreciation, amortization or depletion. A taxpayer that is exempt from the interest expense limitations as an electing real property trade or business is ineligible for certain expensing benefits and is subject to less favorable depreciation rules for real property. The rules for business interest expense will apply to us and at the level of each entity in which or through which we invest that is not a disregarded entity for U.S. federal income tax purposes. To the extent that our interest expense is not deductible, our taxable income will be increased, as will our REIT distribution requirement and the amounts we need to distribute to avoid incurring income and excise taxes.

The Advisor seeks to determine the fair value of our investments as of the last day of each month. Within the parameters of our valuation guidelines, the valuation methodologies used to value our assets involve subjective judgments. In general, the loan portfolio is valued at amortized cost, subject to impairment testing. Impairment testing is subjective in nature as it partially relies on the Advisor’s judgment on whether a borrower can repay the loan. Valuation methodologies also involve assumptions and opinions about future events, which may or may not turn out to be correct. Valuations and appraisals of our investments are only estimates of fair value. Ultimate realization of the value of an asset depends to a great extent on economic and other conditions beyond our control and the control of the Advisor.
