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.

Macroeconomic Environment

The year ended December 31, 2022 has been characterized by steep declines and significant volatility in global markets, driven by investor concerns over inflation, rising interest rates, slowing economic growth and geopolitical uncertainty.

Inflation across many key economies reached generational highs, prompting central banks to take monetary policy tightening actions that are likely to create headwinds to economic growth.

The ongoing war between Russia and Ukraine is also contributing to economic and geopolitical uncertainty.

Inflation continues to rise and has caused the Federal Reserve to raise interest rates with indications of future increases, 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 being equal, correlate to increases in our net income, increases in interest rates may adversely affect our existing borrowers.

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.

While there is debate among economists as to whether such factors, coupled with recent periods of economic contraction in the U.S., indicate that the U.S.

has entered, or in the near term will enter, a recession, it remains difficult to predict the full impact of recent changes and any future changes in interest rates or inflation.

The year ended December 31, 2023 has 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.

Events affecting financial institutions during the year also contributed to volatility in global markets and diminished liquidity and credit availability.

During 2023, inflation began to moderate as a result of the monetary policy tightening actions taken by central banks, including raising interest rates.

While it is anticipated that central banks may begin to lower interest rates in 2024, interest rates may remain at or near recent highs, which creates further uncertainty for the economy and for our borrowers.

Although our business model is such that higher interest rates will, all else equal, correlate to higher net income, interest rates remaining elevated for an extended period of time may adversely affect our existing borrowers and lead to non-performance, as higher costs may dampen consumer spending and slow corporate profit growth, which may negatively impact the collateral underlying certain of our loans.

Additionally, higher interest rates could adversely affect commercial real estate property values.

It remains difficult to predict the full impact of recent events and any future changes in interest rates or inflation.

Reference Rate Reform

LIBOR and certain other floating rate benchmark indices to which our floating rate loans and other loan agreements are tied, including, without limitation, the Euro Interbank Offered Rate, or EURIBOR, the Stockholm Interbank Offered Rate, or STIBOR, the Australian Bank Bill Swap Reference Rate, or BBSY, the Canadian Dollar Offered Rate, or CDOR, the

Swiss Average Rate Overnight, or SARON, and the Copenhagen Interbank Offering Rate, or CIBOR, or collectively, IBORs, have been the subject of national, international and regulatory guidance and proposals for reform.

As of December 31, 2021, the ICE Benchmark Association, or IBA, ceased publication of most non-USD LIBOR settings.

IBA also previously announced its intention to cease publication of remaining U.S.

dollar LIBOR settings immediately after June 30, 2023;

however, in November 2022 the U.K.

Financial Conduct Authority, which regulates IBA, announced a public consultation regarding whether it should compel IBA to continue publishing “synthetic” USD LIBOR settings from June 2023 to the end of September 2024.

Further, on March 15, 2022, the Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2022, which includes the Adjustable Interest Rate (LIBOR) Act, or LIBOR Act, was signed into law in the U.S.

This legislation establishes a uniform benchmark replacement process for financial contracts maturing after June 30, 2023 that do not contain clearly defined or practicable fallback provisions.

Under the LIBOR Act, such contracts will automatically transition as a matter of law to a Secured Overnight Financing Rate, or SOFR, based replacement rate identified by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, or Federal Reserve.

The legislation also creates a safe harbor that shields lenders from litigation if they choose to utilize a replacement rate recommended by the Federal Reserve.

In July 2022, the Federal Reserve issued a notice of proposed rulemaking implementing the LIBOR Act.

As of December 31, 2022, no regulations have been promulgated.

The Federal Reserve, in conjunction with the Alternative Reference Rates Committee, or ARRC, a steering committee composed of large U.S.

financial institutions, identified SOFR, a new index calculated using short-term repurchase agreements backed by U.S.

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.

According to the ARRC, data from the cash and derivatives markets show continued momentum in the transition from LIBOR to SOFR, and SOFR is currently predominant across cash and derivatives markets.

As of December 31, 2022, one-month term SOFR is utilized as the floating benchmark rate on 76 of our loans, the financing provided on the 2020 FL3 and 2020 FL2 CLOs, one of our asset-specific financings, certain borrowings under twelve of our credit facilities, and our B-4 Term Loan.

As of December 31, 2022, one-month term SOFR was 4.36% and one-month USD LIBOR was 4.39%.

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.

As of December 31, 2022, 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 December 31, 2022, 63.5% of our aggregate loan principal balance has either transitioned to the applicable replacement benchmark rate, or its existing benchmark rate is not expected to be replaced, and we expect to transition the remaining 36.5% in 2023.

At this time, it is not possible to predict how markets will respond in the future to SOFR, SONIA, or other alternative reference rates as the transition away from USD LIBOR and GBP LIBOR proceeds.

Despite the LIBOR transition in other markets, benchmark rate methodologies in Europe, Australia, Canada, Switzerland and Denmark have been reformed and rates such as EURIBOR, STIBOR, BBSY, CDOR, SARON and CIBOR may persist as International Organization of Securities Commissions, or IOSCO, compliant reference rates moving forward.

However, multi-rate environments may persist in these markets as regulators and working groups have suggested market participants adopt alternative reference rates.

As of December 31, 2023, 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.

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 December 31, 2022, we recorded a net loss per share of $0.28, declared a dividend of $0.62 per share, and reported $0.87 per share of Distributable Earnings.

In addition, our book value as of December 31, 2022 was $26.26 per share, which is net of a $1.99 per share cumulative CECL reserve.

For the three months ended December 31, 2023, we recorded a basic net loss per share of $0.01, declared a dividend of $0.62 per share, and reported $0.69 per share of Distributable Earnings.

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.

Our CECL reserves have 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 realized and deemed non-recoverable 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 realization and non-recoverability may also be concluded if, in our determination, it is nearly certain that all amounts due will not be collected.

The timing of any such credit loss realization in our Distributable Earnings may differ materially from the timing of CECL reserves or charge-offs in our consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP.

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.

Portfolio Management

During the year ended December 31, 2022, we collected 100.0% of the contractual interest payments that were due under our loans, with no interest deferrals, which we believe 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.

As of December 31, 2023, 99.5% of borrowers, based on net loan exposure, were compliant with the contractual terms of each respective loan.

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, and experienced sponsors.

As of December 31, 2023, we had one loan with an amortized cost basis of $140.0 million past its current maturity date.

This loan was less than 30 days past due on its interest payments, and had a risk rating of “5” as of December 31, 2023.

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 will 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 December 31, 2022 reflects significant equity value that we expect our sponsors will be motivated to protect through periods of cyclical disruption.

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 December 31, 2022, 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.

As of December 31, 2023, 99% of our loans 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 loans.

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.

In addition to the risks related to fluctuations in cash flows and asset values associated with movements in interest rates, there is also the risk of non-performance on floating rate assets.

In the case of a significant increase in interest rates, the cash flows of the collateral real estate assets may not be sufficient to pay debt service due under our loans, which may contribute to non-performance or, in severe cases, default.

This risk is partially mitigated by our consideration of rising rate stress-testing during our underwriting process, which generally includes a requirement for our borrower to purchase an interest rate cap contract with an unaffiliated third party, provide an interest reserve deposit, and/or provide interest or other structural protections.

As of December 31, 2023, 97% of our performing loans have interest rate caps with a weighted-average strike price of 3.3% or interest guarantees.

During the year ended December 31, 2023, interest rate caps on $14.7 billion of loans, with a 3.1% weighted-average strike price, expired and 93% were replaced with new interest rate caps, with a weighted-average strike price of 3.7%, or interest guarantees.

Adjusted Debt-to-Equity Ratio and Adjusted Total Leverage Ratio

Our adjusted debt-to-equity and total leverage ratios are measures that are not prepared in accordance with GAAP, as they are calculated using Adjusted Equity, which we define as our total equity, excluding the aggregate CECL reserves on our loans receivable and unfunded loan commitments.

We believe that Adjusted Equity provides meaningful information to consider in addition to our total equity determined in accordance with GAAP in the context of assessing our debt-to-equity and total leverage ratios.

The adjusted debt-to-equity and total leverage ratios are metrics we use, in addition to our unadjusted debt-to-equity and total leverage ratios, when evaluating our capitalization structure, as Adjusted Equity excludes the unrealized impact of our CECL reserves, which may vary from quarter-to-quarter as our loan portfolio changes and market and economic conditions evolve.

We believe these ratios, and therefore our Adjusted Equity, are useful financial metrics for existing and potential future holders of our class A common stock to consider when evaluating how our business is capitalized and the relative amount of leverage in our business.

Adjusted Equity does not represent our total equity and should not be considered as an alternate to GAAP total equity.

In addition, our methodology for calculating Adjusted Equity may differ from methodologies employed by other companies to calculate the same or similar supplemental measures, and accordingly, our reported Adjusted Equity may not be comparable to the Adjusted Equity reported by other companies.

The following table provides a reconciliation of Adjusted Equity to our GAAP total equity ($ in thousands):

$ 4,387,504 $ 4,544,200

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.

If a loan is determined to be impaired, we record the impairment as a component of our CECL reserves by applying the practical expedient for collateral dependent loans.

The CECL reserves are 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 realize the impairment losses if and when such amounts are deemed nonrecoverable upon a realization event.

We only expect to charge-off the impairment losses in our consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP if and when such amounts are deemed non-recoverable.

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 year ended December 31, 2022, we recorded an aggregate $211.5 million increase in the CECL reserve related to our loans receivable, debt securities, and unfunded loan commitments, bringing our total reserve to $342.5 million as of December 31, 2022.

See Notes 2 and 3 to our consolidated financial statements for further discussion of our CECL reserve.

The sensitivity of each assumption and its impact on the CECL reserves may change over time and from period to period.

During the year ended December 31, 2023, we recorded an aggregate $249.8 million increase in the CECL reserve related to our loans receivable and unfunded loan commitments, bringing our total reserve to $592.3 million as of December 31, 2023.

Revenue Recognition

Interest income from our loans receivable portfolio and debt securities 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 or debt security as an adjustment to yield.

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 a reduction in the outstanding principal balance 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.

Interest received is then recorded as income or as a reduction in the amortized cost basis, 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 reduction to interest income, however expenses related to loans we acquire are included in general and administrative expenses as incurred.
