EXPLANATORY NOTE

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q of Sunrise Realty Trust, Inc. (the “Company,” “SUNS,” “we,” “us,” and “our”) pertains to the quarterly period ended June 30, 2024. Prior to July 9, 2024, our sole shareholder was AFC Gamma, Inc. (“AFC Gamma”). On July 8, 2024, the Company entered into a Separation and Distribution Agreement with AFC Gamma, pursuant to which, among other things, AFC Gamma contributed to us its commercial real estate portfolio (the “Separation”). On July 9, 2024, following the Separation, AFC Gamma completed the spin-off of the Company (the “Spin-Off”) by distributing all the Company’s outstanding shares to the holders of AFC Gamma common stock (the “Distribution”) as of the close of business on July 8, 2024 (the “Record Date”). AFC Gamma’s shareholders of record as of the Record Date received one share of SUNS common stock for every three shares of AFC Gamma common stock held as of the Record Date. As a result of the Separation, Distribution and Spin-Off, the Company is now an independent, publicly traded company and our common stock is listed under the symbol “SUNS” on the Nasdaq Capital Market.

Effective July 2, 2024, we became subject to the informational requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) and will file annual, quarterly and current reports, proxy statements and other information with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q presents the financial information of the Company for the period ended June 30, 2024, which is prior to completion of the Spin-Off. Therefore, neither the discussion of the Company’s results of operations, cash flows and financial condition nor the financial statements set forth herein are necessarily indicative of the future results of operations, cash flows or financial condition of the Company as a publicly traded company operated independently of AFC Gamma following the completion of the Spin-Off.
