Introduction
Blackstone Mortgage Trust is a real estate finance company that originates senior loans collateralized by commercial real estate in North America, Europe, and Australia. Our portfolio is composed primarily of loans secured by high-quality, institutional assets in major markets, sponsored by experienced, well-capitalized real estate investment owners and operators. These senior loans are capitalized by accessing a variety of financing options, including borrowing under our credit facilities, issuing CLOs or single-asset securitizations, and syndicating senior loan participations, depending on our view of the most prudent financing option available for each of our investments. We are not in the business of buying or trading securities, and the only securities we own are the retained interests from our securitization financing transactions, which we have not financed. We are externally managed by BXMT Advisors L.L.C., or our Manager, a subsidiary of Blackstone Inc., or Blackstone, and are a real estate investment trust, or REIT, traded on the New York Stock Exchange, or NYSE, under the symbol “BXMT.”
We benefit from the deep knowledge, experience and information advantages of our Manager, which is a part of Blackstone’s real estate platform. Blackstone has built the world's preeminent global real estate business, with a proven track record of successfully navigating market cycles and emerging stronger through periods of volatility. The market-leading real estate expertise derived from the strength of the Blackstone platform deeply informs our credit and underwriting process, and we believe gives us the tools to expertly manage the assets in our portfolio and work with our borrowers throughout periods of economic stress and uncertainty.
We conduct our operations as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes. We generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income taxes on our taxable income to the extent that we annually distribute all of our net taxable income to stockholders and maintain our qualification as a REIT. We also operate our business in a manner that permits us to maintain an exclusion from registration under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. We are organized as a holding company and conduct our business primarily through our various subsidiaries.
Recent Developments
Macroeconomic Environment
The six months ended June 30, 2023 have been characterized by continued volatility in global markets, driven by investor concerns over inflation, rising interest rates, slowing economic growth, political and regulatory uncertainty and geopolitical conditions. Recent events affecting financial institutions have also contributed to volatility in global markets and diminished liquidity and credit availability in the market broadly.
Continued inflation has prompted central banks to take monetary policy tightening actions, including raising interest rates, which has created further uncertainty for the economy and for our borrowers. Although our business model is such that rising interest rates will, all else equal, correlate to increases in our net income, increases in interest rates may adversely affect our existing borrowers and lead to nonperformance. Additionally, rising rates and increasing costs may dampen consumer spending and slow corporate profit growth, which may negatively impact the collateral underlying certain of our loans. It remains difficult to predict the full impact of recent events and any future changes in interest rates or inflation.
48
Reference Rate Reform
LIBOR and certain other floating rate benchmark indices have been the subject of national, international and regulatory guidance and proposals for reform or replacement. The Federal Reserve, in conjunction with the Alternative Reference Rates Committee, a steering committee composed of large U.S. financial institutions, identified SOFR, an index calculated using short-term repurchase agreements backed by U.S. Treasury securities, as its preferred alternative rate for USD LIBOR. As of June 30, 2023, one-month term SOFR is utilized as the floating benchmark rate on substantially all of our floating rate U.S. dollar loans and related financings. Additionally, market participants have continued to transition from GBP LIBOR to the Sterling Overnight Index Average, or SONIA, in line with guidance from the U.K. regulators. As of June 30, 2023, daily compounded SONIA is utilized as the floating benchmark rate for all of our floating rate British Pound Sterling loans and related financings. As of June 30, 2023, substantially all of our floating rate loans and related financings have transitioned to the applicable replacement benchmark rate, or reference a benchmark rate that is not expected to be replaced.
Refer to “Part I. Item 1A. Risk Factors—Risks Related to Our Lending and Investment Activities—The transition away from reference rates and use of alternative replacement reference rates may adversely affect net interest income related to our loans and investments or otherwise adversely affect our results of operations, cash flows and the market value of our investments” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 8, 2023.
I. Key Financial Measures and Indicators
As a real estate finance company, we believe the key financial measures and indicators for our business are earnings per share, dividends declared, Distributable Earnings, and book value per share. For the three months ended June 30, 2023, we recorded basic earnings per share of $0.59, declared a dividend of $0.62 per share, and reported $0.79 per share of Distributable Earnings. In addition, our book value as of June 30, 2023 was $26.30 per share, which is net of a $2.20 per share cumulative CECL reserve.
As further described below, Distributable Earnings is a measure that is not prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, or GAAP, which helps us to evaluate our performance excluding the effects of certain transactions and GAAP adjustments that we believe are not necessarily indicative of our current loan portfolio and operations. In addition, Distributable Earnings is a performance metric we consider when declaring our dividends.
Earnings Per Share and Dividends Declared
The following table sets forth the calculation of basic net income per share and dividends declared per share ($ in thousands, except per share data):

Per share amount, basic $ 0.59 $ 0.68
Dividends declared per share $ 0.62 $ 0.62
(1) Represents net income attributable to Blackstone Mortgage Trust. Refer to Note 13 to our consolidated financial statements for the calculation of diluted net income per share.
Distributable Earnings
Distributable Earnings is a non-GAAP measure, which we define as GAAP net income (loss), including realized gains and losses not otherwise recognized in current period GAAP net income (loss), and excluding (i) non-cash equity compensation expense, (ii) depreciation and amortization, (iii) unrealized gains (losses), and (iv) certain non-cash items. Distributable Earnings may also be adjusted from time to time to exclude one-time events pursuant to changes in GAAP and certain other non-cash charges as determined by our Manager, subject to approval by a majority of our independent directors.
49
Distributable Earnings mirrors the terms of our management agreement between our Manager and us, or our Management Agreement, for purposes of calculating our incentive fee expense.
Our CECL reserve has been excluded from Distributable Earnings consistent with other unrealized gains (losses) pursuant to our existing policy for reporting Distributable Earnings. We expect to only recognize such potential credit losses in Distributable Earnings if and when such amounts are deemed nonrecoverable upon a realization event. This is generally at the time a loan is repaid, or in the case of foreclosure, when the underlying asset is sold, but non-recoverability may also be concluded if, in our determination, it is nearly certain that all amounts due will not be collected. The realized loss amount reflected in Distributable Earnings will equal the difference between the cash received, or expected to be received, and the book value of the asset, and is reflective of our economic experience as it relates to the ultimate realization of the loan.
We believe that Distributable Earnings provides meaningful information to consider in addition to our net income (loss) and cash flow from operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP. We believe Distributable Earnings is a useful financial metric for existing and potential future holders of our class A common stock as historically, over time, Distributable Earnings has been a strong indicator of our dividends per share. As a REIT, we generally must distribute annually at least 90% of our net taxable income, subject to certain adjustments, and therefore we believe our dividends are one of the principal reasons stockholders may invest in our class A common stock. Refer to Note 15 to our consolidated financial statements for further discussion of our distribution requirements as a REIT. Further, Distributable Earnings helps us to evaluate our performance excluding the effects of certain transactions and GAAP adjustments that we believe are not necessarily indicative of our current loan portfolio and operations, and is a performance metric we consider when declaring our dividends.
Distributable Earnings does not represent net income (loss) or cash generated from operating activities and should not be considered as an alternative to GAAP net income (loss), or an indication of our GAAP cash flows from operations, a measure of our liquidity, or an indication of funds available for our cash needs. In addition, our methodology for calculating Distributable Earnings may differ from the methodologies employed by other companies to calculate the same or similar supplemental performance measures, and accordingly, our reported Distributable Earnings may not be comparable to the Distributable Earnings reported by other companies.
The following table provides a reconciliation of Distributable Earnings to GAAP net income ($ in thousands, except per share data):

(1) In certain instances, we have executed a sale of a non-recourse senior loan interest that is not included in our consolidated financial statements. Total loan exposure encompasses the entire loan we originated and sold, including $1.2 billion of such non-consolidated senior interests, as of June 30, 2023, that are not included in our balance sheet portfolio. We have retained an aggregate $294.0 million of subordinate mezzanine loans, as of June 30, 2023, related to these non-consolidated senior interests that are included in our balance sheet portfolio.
(2) Unfunded commitments will primarily be funded to finance our borrowers’ construction or development of real estate-related assets, capital improvements of existing assets, or lease-related expenditures. These commitments will generally be funded over the term of each loan, subject in certain cases to an expiration date. Excludes $504.3 million of unfunded loan commitments related to our non-consolidated senior interests, as these commitments will not require cash outlays from us.
(3) The weighted-average cash coupon and all-in yield are expressed as a spread over the relevant floating benchmark rates, which include SOFR, SONIA, EURIBOR, and other indices as applicable to each investment. As of June 30, 2023, substantially all of our loans by principal balance earned a floating rate of interest, primarily indexed to SOFR. Floating rate exposure includes an interest rate swap with a notional amount of $229.9 million that effectively converts our fixed rate loan exposure to floating rate exposure. In addition to cash coupon, all-in yield includes the amortization of deferred origination and extension fees, loan origination costs, and purchase discounts, as well as the accrual of exit fees. Excludes loans accounted for under the cost-recovery method.
(4) Maximum maturity assumes all extension options are exercised by the borrower, however our loans and other investments may be repaid prior to such date. As of June 30, 2023, 29% of our loans by total loan exposure were subject to yield maintenance or other prepayment restrictions and 71% were open to repayment by the borrower without penalty.
(5) Based on LTV as of the dates loans were originated or acquired by us.

______________
(1) Net loan exposure reflects the amount of each loan that is subject to risk of credit loss to us as of June 30, 2023, which is our total loan exposure net of (i) $1.2 billion of non-consolidated senior interests, (ii) $875.6 million of asset-specific debt, (iii) $236.3 million of loan participations sold, and (iv) our aggregate CECL reserve of $363.9 million. Our non-consolidated senior interests, asset-specific debt, and loan participations sold are structurally non-recourse and term-matched to the corresponding collateral loans.
Refer to section VI of this Item 2 for details of our loan portfolio, on a loan-by-loan basis.
Portfolio Management
During the three months ended June 30, 2023, we collected 100.0% of the contractual interest payments that were due under our loans, with virtually no interest deferrals. We believe this demonstrates the overall strength of our loan portfolio and the commitment and financial wherewithal of our borrowers generally, which are primarily affiliated with large real estate private equity funds and other strong, well-capitalized, experienced sponsors.
We maintain a robust asset management relationship with our borrowers and utilize these relationships to maximize the performance of our portfolio, including during periods of volatility. We believe that we benefit from these relationships and from our long-standing core business model of originating senior loans collateralized by large assets in major markets with experienced, well-capitalized institutional sponsors. Our loan portfolio’s low weighted-average origination LTV of 63.9% as of June 30, 2023 reflects significant equity value that we expect our sponsors will be motivated to protect through periods of cyclical disruption. While we believe the principal amounts of our loans are generally adequately protected by underlying collateral value, there is a risk that we will not realize the entire principal value of certain investments. As of June 30, 2023, we had an aggregate $214.4 million asset-specific CECL reserve related to seven of our loans receivable, with an aggregate amortized cost basis of $1.1 billion. This CECL reserve was recorded based on our estimation of the fair value of each of the loan's underlying collateral as of June 30, 2023.

Our portfolio monitoring and asset management operations benefit from the deep knowledge, experience, and information advantages derived from our position as part of Blackstone’s real estate platform. Blackstone has built the world's preeminent global real estate business, with a proven track record of successfully navigating market cycles and emerging stronger through periods of volatility. The market-leading real estate expertise derived from the strength of the Blackstone platform deeply informs our credit and underwriting process, and gives us the tools to expertly asset manage our portfolio and work with our borrowers throughout periods of economic stress and uncertainty.
As discussed in Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements, we perform a quarterly review of our loan portfolio, assesses the performance of each loan, and assigns it a risk rating between “1” and “5,” from less risk to greater risk. Our loan portfolio had a weighted-average risk rating of 2.9 as of both June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

(1) In certain instances, we have executed a sale of a non-recourse senior loan interest that is not included in our consolidated financial statements. See Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements for further discussion. Total loan exposure encompasses the entire loan we originated and sold, including $1.2 billion of such non-consolidated senior interests as of June 30, 2023.
(2) Net loan exposure reflects the amount of each loan that is subject to risk of credit loss to us as of June 30, 2023, which is our total loan exposure net of (i) $1.2 billion of non-consolidated senior interests, (ii) $875.6 million of asset-specific debt, (iii) $236.3 million of loan participations sold, and (iv) our aggregate CECL reserve of $363.9 million. Our non-consolidated senior interests, asset-specific debt, and loan participations sold are structurally non-recourse and term-matched to the corresponding collateral loans.
Current Expected Credit Loss Reserve
The CECL reserve required by GAAP reflects our current estimate of potential credit losses related to our loans included in our consolidated balance sheets. Other than a few narrow exceptions, GAAP requires that all financial instruments subject to the CECL model have some amount of loss reserve to reflect the principle underlying the CECL model that all loans and similar assets have some inherent risk of loss, regardless of credit quality, subordinate capital, or other mitigating factors.
During the three months ended June 30, 2023, we recorded an increase of $27.3 million in the CECL reserve against our loans receivable portfolio, bringing our total loans receivable CECL reserve to $363.9 million as of June 30, 2023. This CECL reserve reflects certain loans assessed for impairment in our portfolio, as well as macroeconomic conditions.
During the three months ended June 30, 2023, we recorded an aggregate net increase of $17.1 million in the asset-specific CECL reserve related to our impaired loans. The increase was primarily driven by one additional loan that was impaired during the three months ended June 30, 2023. As of June 30, 2023, the income accrual was suspended on this loan as recovery of income and principal was doubtful. During the three months ended June 30, 2023, we recorded $2.1 million of interest income on this loan.
As of June 30, 2023, we had an aggregate $214.4 million asset-specific CECL reserve related to seven of our loans receivable, with an aggregate amortized cost basis of $1.1 billion. This CECL reserve was recorded based on our estimation of the fair value of each of the loan's underlying collateral as of June 30, 2023. No income was recorded on each of our impaired loans subsequent to determining that they were impaired. As of June 30, 2023, all borrowers were compliant with all contractual terms of each respective loan, including payment of interest. During the three months ended
55
June 30, 2023, we received an aggregate $12.3 million of cash proceeds from such loans that were applied as a reduction to the principal balance of each respective loan. Refer to Note 2 for further discussion of our revenue recognition and CECL reserve policies.
Multifamily Joint Venture
As of June 30, 2023, our Multifamily Joint Venture held $798.6 million of loans, which are included in the loan disclosures above. Refer to Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements for additional discussion of our Multifamily Joint Venture.

Floating Rate Portfolio
Generally, our business model is such that rising interest rates will increase our net income, while declining interest rates will decrease net income. As of June 30, 2023, substantially all of our investments by total loan exposure earned a floating rate of interest and were financed with liabilities that pay interest at floating rates, which resulted in an amount of net equity that is positively correlated to rising interest rates, subject to the impact of interest rate floors on certain of our floating rate investments. In certain cases, we have financed fixed rate assets with floating rate liabilities, and have purchased interest rate swaps to effectively convert our net exposure to floating rate.
Our liabilities are generally currency and index-matched to each collateral asset, resulting in a net exposure to movements in benchmark rates that varies by currency silo based on the relative proportion of floating rate assets and liabilities.

Other expenses include management and incentive fees payable to our Manager and general and administrative expenses. Other expenses increased by $1.9 million during the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2023 primarily due to an increase of (i) $1.7 million of incentive fees payable to our Manager and (ii) $147,000 of general operating expenses.
Changes in current expected credit loss reserve
During the three months ended June 30, 2023, we recorded a $27.8 million increase in the CECL reserve, as compared to a $9.8 million increase during the three months ended March 31, 2023.

Income from loans and other investments, net
Income from loans and other investments, net increased $70.7 million during the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022. The increase was primarily due to (i) an increase in floating rate indices during the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022, and (ii) an increase in the weighted-average principal balance of our loan portfolio by $1.6 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022. This was offset by an increase in the weighted-average principal balance of our outstanding financing arrangements by $1.6 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022.
Other expenses
Other expenses increased by $14.4 million during the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022 due to an increase of (i) $12.4 million of incentive fees payable to our Manager, due to an increase in Distributable Earnings, (ii) $2.9 million of general operating expenses, and (iii) $917,000 of management fees payable to our Manager, primarily as a result of an increase in equity. This was offset by a reduction in non-cash restricted stock amortization of $1.7 million related to shares awarded under our long-term incentive plans.

IV. Liquidity and Capital Resources
Capitalization
We have capitalized our business to date primarily through the issuance and sale of shares of our class A common stock, corporate debt, and asset-level financings. As of June 30, 2023, our capitalization structure included $4.5 billion of common equity, $2.8 billion of corporate debt, and $17.0 billion of asset-level financings. Our $2.8 billion of corporate debt includes $2.1 billion of term loan borrowings, $400.0 million of senior secured notes, and $300.0 million of convertible notes. Our $17.0 billion of asset-level financings includes $13.5 billion of secured debt, $2.7 billion of securitizations, and $875.6 million of asset-specific debt, all of which are structured to produce term, currency, and index matched funding with no margin call provisions based upon capital markets events.
As of June 30, 2023, we have $1.8 billion of liquidity that can be used to satisfy our short-term cash requirements and as working capital for our business.
See Notes 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, and 11 to our co nsolidated financial statements for additional details regarding our secured debt, securitized debt obligations, asset-specific debt, loan participations sold, Term Loans, Senior Secured Notes, and Convertible Notes, respectively.

(1) Represents loan principal payments held by our third-party servicer as of the balance sheet date which were remitted to us during the subsequent remittance cycle, net of the related secured debt balance.
During the six months ended June 30, 2023, we generated cash flow from operating activities of $238.1 million and received $1.5 billion from loan principal collections and sales proceeds. Furthermore, we are able to generate incremental liquidity through the replenishment provisions of certain of our CLOs, which allow us to replace a repaid loan in the CLO by increasing the principal amount of existing CLO collateral assets to maintain the aggregate amount of collateral assets in the CLO, and the related financing outstanding.
We have access to further liquidity through public offerings of debt and equity securities. To facilitate such offerings, in July 2022, we filed a shelf registration statement with the SEC that is effective for a term of three years and expires in July 2025. The amount of securities to be issued pursuant to this shelf registration statement was not specified when it was filed and there is no specific dollar limit on the amount of securities we may issue. The securities covered by this registration statement include: (i) class A common stock; (ii) preferred stock; (iii) depositary shares representing preferred stock; (iv) debt securities; (v) warrants; (vi) subscription rights; (vii) purchase contracts; and (viii) units consisting of one or more of such securities or any combination of these securities. The specifics of any future offerings, along with the use of proceeds of any securities offered, will be described in detail in a prospectus supplement, or other offering materials, at the time of any offering.
We may also access liquidity through our dividend reinvestment plan and direct stock purchase plan, under which 9,977,935 shares of class A common stock were available for issuance as of June 30, 2023, and our at the market stock offering program, pursuant to which we may sell, from time to time, up to $480.9 million of additional shares of our class A common stock as of June 30, 2023. Refer to Note 13 to our consolidated financial statements for additional details.
Liquidity Needs
In addition to our loan origination and funding activity and general operating expenses, our primary liquidity needs include interest and principal payments under our $13.5 billion of outstanding borrowings under secured debt, our asset-specific debt, our Term Loans, our Senior Secured Notes, and our Convertible Notes. From time to time we may also repurchase our outstanding debt or shares of our class A common stock. Such repurchases, if any, will depend on prevailing market conditions, our liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions, and other factors. The amounts involved in any such purchase transactions, individually or in the aggregate, may be material.
As of June 30, 2023, we had unfunded commitments of $3.0 billion related to 105 loans receivable and $1.8 billion of committed or identified financing for those commitments resulting in net unfunded commitments of $1.2 billion. The unfunded loan commitments comprise funding for capital expenditures and construction, leasing costs, and interest and carry costs, and their fundability varies depending on the progress of capital projects, leasing, and cash flows at the properties securing our loans. Therefore, the exact timing and amounts of such future loan fundings are uncertain and will depend on the current and future performance of the underlying collateral assets. We expect to fund our loan commitments over the remaining term of the related loans, which have a weighted-average future funding period of 2.8 years .

(2) The allocation of our unfunded loan commitments is based on the earlier of the commitment expiration date or the final loan maturity date, however we may be obligated to fund these commitments earlier than such date.
(3) Our secured debt and asset-specific debt agreements are generally term-matched to their underlying collateral. Therefore, the allocation of both principal and interest payments under such agreements is generally allocated based on the maximum maturity date of the collateral loans, assuming all extension options are exercised by the borrower. In limited instances, the maturity date of the respective debt agreement is used.
(4) The Term Loans are partially amortizing, with an amount equal to 1.0% per annum of the initial principal balance due in quarterly installments. Refer to Note 9 for further details on our term loans.
(5) Reflects the outstanding principal balance of convertible notes, excluding any potential conversion premium. Refer to Note 11 to our consolidated financial statements for further details on our convertible notes.
(6) Represents interest payments on our secured debt, asset-specific debt, term loans, senior secured notes, and convertible notes. Future interest payment obligations are estimated assuming the interest rates in effect as of June 30, 2023 will remain constant into the future. This is only an estimate as actual amounts borrowed and interest rates will vary over time.
(7) Total does not include $2.7 billion of consolidated securitized debt obligations, $1.2 billion of non-consolidated senior interests, and $236.3 million of loan participations sold, as the satisfaction of these liabilities will not require cash outlays from us.
We are also required to settle our foreign exchange and interest rate derivatives with our derivative counterparties upon maturity which, depending on foreign currency exchange and interest rate movements, may result in cash received from or due to such counterparties. The table above does not include these amounts as they are not fixed and determinable. Refer to Note 12 to our consolidated financial statements for details regarding our derivative contracts.
We are required to pay our Manager a base management fee, an incentive fee, and reimbursements for certain expenses pursuant to our Management Agreement. The table above does not include the amounts payable to our Manager under our Management Agreement as they are not fixed and determinable. Refer to Note 14 to our consolidated financial statements for additional terms and details of the fees payable under our Management Agreement.
As a REIT, we generally must distribute substantially all of our net taxable income to stockholders in the form of dividends to comply with the REIT provisions of the Internal Revenue Code. Our taxable income does not necessarily equal our net income as calculated in accordance with GAAP, or our Distributable Earnings as described above.

V. Other Items
Income Taxes
We have elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code for U.S. federal income tax purposes. We generally must distribute annually at least 90% of our net taxable income, subject to certain adjustments and excluding any net capital gain, in order for U.S. federal income tax not to apply to our earnings. To the extent that we satisfy this distribution requirement, but distribute less than 100% of our net taxable income, we will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on our undistributed taxable income. In addition, we will be subject to a 4% nondeductible excise tax if the actual amount that we pay out to our stockholders in a calendar year is less than a minimum amount specified under U.S. federal tax laws.
Our qualification as a REIT also depends on our ability to meet various other requirements imposed by the Internal Revenue Code, which relate to organizational structure, diversity of stock ownership, and certain restrictions with regard to the nature of our assets and the sources of our income. Even if we qualify as a REIT, we may be subject to certain U.S. federal income and excise taxes and state and local taxes on our income and assets. If we fail to maintain our qualification as a REIT for any taxable year, we may be subject to material penalties as well as federal, state and local income tax on our taxable income at regular corporate rates and we would not be able to qualify as a REIT for the subsequent four full taxable years. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we were in compliance with all REIT requirements.
Furthermore, our taxable REIT subsidiaries are subject to federal, state, and local income tax on their net taxable income. Refer to Note 15 to our consolidated financial statements for additional discussion of our income taxes.
Critical Accounting Policies
Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. There have been no material changes to our Critical Accounting Policies described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 8, 2023.
Current Expected Credit Losses
The current expected credit loss, or CECL, reserve required under the FASB Accounting Standards Codification, or ASC, Topic 326 “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses,” or ASC 326, reflects our current estimate of potential credit losses related to our loans included in our consolidated balance sheets. We estimate our CECL reserve primarily using the Weighted Average Remaining Maturity, or WARM method, which has been identified as an acceptable loss-rate method
66
for estimating CECL reserves in the Financial Accounting Standards Board Staff Q&A Topic 326, No. 1. Estimating the CECL reserve requires judgment, including the following assumptions:
• Historical loan loss reference data: To estimate the historic loan losses relevant to our portfolio, we have augmented our historical loan performance with market loan loss data licensed from Trepp LLC. This database includes commercial mortgage-backed securities, or CMBS, issued since January 1, 1999 through May 31, 2023. Within this database, we focused our historical loss reference calculations on the most relevant subset of available CMBS data, which we determined based on loan metrics that are most comparable to our loan portfolio including asset type, geography, and origination loan-to-value, or LTV. We believe this CMBS data, which includes month-over-month loan and property performance, is the most relevant, available, and comparable dataset to our portfolio.
• Expected timing and amount of future loan fundings and repayments: Expected credit losses are estimated over the contractual term of each loan, adjusted for expected prepayments. As part of our quarterly review of our loan portfolio, we assess the expected repayment date of each loan, which is used to determine the contractual term for purposes of computing our CECL reserve. Additionally, the expected credit losses over the contractual period of our loans are subject to the obligation to extend credit through our unfunded loan commitments. The CECL reserve for unfunded loan commitments is adjusted quarterly, as we consider the expected timing of future funding obligations over the estimated life of the loan. The considerations in estimating our CECL reserve for unfunded loan commitments are similar to those used for the related outstanding loans receivable.
• Current credit quality of our portfolio: Our risk rating is our primary credit quality indicator in assessing our current expected credit loss reserve. We perform a quarterly risk review of our portfolio of loans, and assigns each loan a risk rating based on a variety of factors, including, without limitation, LTV, debt yield, property type, geographic and local market dynamics, physical condition, cash flow volatility, leasing and tenant profile, loan structure and exit plan, and project sponsorship.
• Expectations of performance and market conditions: Our CECL reserve is adjusted to reflect our estimation of the current and future economic conditions that impact the performance of the commercial real estate assets securing our loans. These estimations include unemployment rates, interest rates, inflation, and other macroeconomic factors impacting the likelihood and magnitude of potential credit losses for our loans during their anticipated term. In addition to the CMBS data we have licensed from Trepp LLC, we have also licensed certain macroeconomic financial forecasts to inform our view of the potential future impact that broader economic conditions may have on our loan portfolio’s performance. We may also incorporate information from other sources, including information and opinions available to our Manager, to further inform these estimations. This process requires significant judgments about future events that, while based on the information available to us as of the balance sheet date, are ultimately indeterminate and the actual economic condition impacting our portfolio could vary significantly from the estimates we made as of June 30, 2023.
• Impairment: impairment is indicated when it is deemed probable that we will not be able to collect all amounts due to us pursuant to the contractual terms of the loan. Determining that a loan is impaired requires significant judgment from management and is based on several factors including (i) the underlying collateral performance, (ii) discussions with the borrower, (iii) borrower events of default, and (iv) other facts that impact the borrower’s ability to pay the contractual amounts due under the terms of the loan. If a loan is determined to be impaired, we record the impairment as a component of our CECL reserve by applying the practical expedient for collateral dependent loans. The CECL reserve is assessed on an individual basis for these loans by comparing the estimated fair value of the underlying collateral, less costs to sell, to the book value of the respective loan. These valuations require significant judgments, which include assumptions regarding capitalization rates, discount rates, leasing, creditworthiness of major tenants, occupancy rates, availability and cost of financing, exit plan, loan sponsorship, actions of other lenders, and other factors deemed relevant by us. Actual losses, if any, could ultimately differ materially from these estimates. We only expect to charge-off the impairment losses if and when such amounts are deemed nonrecoverable. This is generally at the time a loan is repaid or foreclosed. However, non-recoverability may also be concluded if, in our determination, it is nearly certain that all amounts due will not be collected.
These assumptions vary from quarter to quarter as our loan portfolio changes and market and economic conditions evolve. The sensitivity of each assumption and its impact on the CECL reserve may change over time and from period to period. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, we recorded an aggregate $37.6 million increase in the CECL reserve related to our loans receivable and unfunded loan commitments, bringing our total reserve to $380.1 million as of June 30, 2023. See Notes 2 and 3 to our consolidated financial statements for further discussion of our CECL reserve.

Revenue Recognition
Interest income from our loans receivable portfolio is recognized over the life of each investment using the effective interest method and is recorded on the accrual basis. Recognition of fees, premiums, and discounts associated with these investments is deferred and recorded over the term of the loan as an adjustment to yield. Income accrual is generally suspended for loans at the earlier of the date at which payments become 90 days past due or when, in our opinion, recovery of income and principal becomes doubtful. Interest received is then recorded as income or as a reduction in the outstanding principal balance, based on the specific facts and circumstances, until accrual is resumed when the loan becomes contractually current and performance is demonstrated to be resumed. In addition, for loans we originate, the related origination expenses are deferred and recognized as a component of interest income, however expenses related to loans we acquire are included in general and administrative expenses as incurred.

(1) Senior loans include senior mortgages and similar credit quality loans, including related contiguous subordinate loans and pari passu participations in senior mortgage loans.
(2) Date loan was originated or acquired by us, and the LTV as of such date. Origination dates are subsequently updated to reflect material loan modifications.
(3) Total loan amount reflects outstanding principal balance as well as any related unfunded loan commitment.
(4) In certain instances, we have originated a senior loan and executed the sale of a non-recourse senior loan interest that is not included in our consolidated financial statements. As of June 30, 2023, six loans in our portfolio have been sold with an aggregate $1.2 billion of non-consolidated senior interest, which are included in the table above.
(5) The weighted-average cash coupon and all-in yield are expressed as a spread over the relevant floating benchmark rates, which include SOFR, SONIA, EURIBOR, and other indices as applicable to each loan. As of June 30, 2023, substantially all of our loans by total loan exposure earned a floating rate of interest, primarily indexed to SOFR. In addition to cash coupon, all-in yield includes the amortization of deferred origination and extension fees, loan origination costs, and purchase discounts, as well as the accrual of exit fees. Excludes loans accounted for under the cost-recovery method.
(6) Maximum maturity assumes all extension options are exercised, however our loans may be repaid prior to such date.
(7) This loan earns interest at a fixed rate. Cash coupon and all-in yield are expressed as a floating rate to include an interest rate swap that effectively converts the loan to a floating rate exposure.
