Although global markets showed signs of stabilization and inflationary pressure may be moderating due to increased interest rates through the end of 2023, CRE value uncertainties, aftershock of the COVID-19 pandemic and geopolitical unrest continue to contribute to market volatility. Generationally high interest rates have continued to negatively impact transaction activity in the real estate market and correspondingly the loan financing and refinancing opportunities. While the Federal Reserve is expected to begin lowering interest rates in the second half of 2024, it is uncertain as to when and how many interest rate cuts will occur. To the extent certain of our borrowers are experiencing significant financial dislocation as a result of economic conditions, we have and may continue to use interest and other reserves and/or replenishment obligations of the borrower and/or guarantors to meet current interest payment obligations for a limited period. The market for office properties was particularly negatively impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic and continues to experience headwinds driven by the normalization of work from home and hybrid work arrangements and elevated costs to operate or reconfigure office properties. These factors have largely resulted in lower demand for office space and driven rising vacancy rates. Given the uncertainty in the office market, there is risk of future valuation impairment or investment loss on our loans secured by office properties. Similarly, these trends may impact our ability to manage debt covenant tests, maturity dates and/or seek suitable refinancing opportunities on certain of our office property equity investments, which may adversely impact valuation assessments and cash flow generated by such investments.

We believe that presenting undepreciated book value per share is a more useful and consistent measure of the value of our current portfolio and operations for our investors. It additionally enhances the comparability to our peers who do not hold real estate investments. Undepreciated book value per share excludes our share of accumulated depreciation and amortization on real estate investments (including related intangible assets and liabilities). It also excludes our share of the carrying value on certain net leased and other real estate office properties whose non-recourse mortgages mature within 12 months. Our ability to refinance at their maturity dates is burdened by the current interest rate environment, lenders’ aversion to finance or refinance office properties and/or associated improvements or paydowns potentially demanded at such properties. Loan maturity defaults can lead to foreclosures. Given this potential likelihood, we believe it is prudent to recognize impairments and exclude our share of the carrying value related to these properties.
