BrightSpire Capital, Inc.: Form 10-Q for the period ended Sep 30, 2026

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our unaudited consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes thereto, which are included in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report, as well as the information contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, which is accessible on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov (http://www.sec.gov).

Introduction

We are an internally-managed commercial real estate (“CRE”) credit real estate investment trust (“REIT”) focused on originating, acquiring, financing and managing a diversified portfolio consisting primarily of CRE debt investments. CRE debt investments primarily consist of senior mortgage loans, which is our primary investment strategy. Additionally, we may also selectively originate mezzanine loans and preferred equity investments, which may include profit participations. The mezzanine loans and preferred equity investments may be in conjunction with our origination of corresponding senior mortgages on the same properties.

We were organized in the state of Maryland on August 23, 2017 and maintain key offices in New York, New York and Los Angeles, California. We elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, beginning with our taxable year ended December 31, 2018. We conduct all our activities and hold substantially all our assets and liabilities through our operating subsidiary, BrightSpire Capital Operating Company, LLC (the “OP”).

Our Target Assets

Our investment strategy is to originate and selectively acquire our target assets, which consist of the following:

• Senior Loans. Our primary focus is originating and selectively acquiring senior loans that are backed by CRE assets. These loans are secured by a first mortgage lien on a commercial property and provide mortgage financing to a commercial property developer or owner. The loans may vary in duration, bear interest at a fixed or floating rate and amortize, if at all, over varying periods, often with a balloon payment of principal at maturity. Senior loans may include junior participations in our originated senior loans for which we have syndicated the senior participations to other investors and retained the junior participations for our portfolio. We believe these junior participations are more like the senior loans we originate than other loan types given their credit quality and risk profile.
• Mezzanine Loans. We may originate or acquire mezzanine loans, which are structurally subordinate to senior loans, but senior to the borrower’s equity position. Generally, we will originate or acquire these loans if we believe we have the ability to protect our position and fund the first mortgage, if necessary. Mezzanine loans may be structured such that our return accrues and is added to the principal amount rather than paid on a current basis. We may also pursue equity participation opportunities in instances when the risk-reward characteristics of the investment warrant additional upside participation in the possible appreciation in value of the underlying assets securing the investment.
• Preferred Equity. We may make investments that are subordinate to senior and mezzanine loans, but senior to the common equity in the mortgage borrower. Preferred equity investments may be structured such that our return accrues and is added to the principal amount rather than paid on a current basis. We also may pursue equity participation opportunities in preferred equity investments, like such participations in mezzanine loans.

Our operating and reportable segments are Senior and Mezzanine Loans and Preferred Equity, and Net Leased and Other Real Estate and Corporate and Other.

The allocation of our capital among our target assets will depend on prevailing market conditions at the time we invest and may change over time in response to different prevailing market conditions. In addition, in the future, we may invest in assets other than our target assets or change our target assets. With respect to all our investments, we invest so as to maintain our qualification as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes and our exclusion or exemption from regulation under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”).

We believe that events in the financial markets from time to time have created and will continue to create dislocation between price and intrinsic value in certain asset classes as well as a supply and demand imbalance of available credit to finance these assets. We believe that our in-depth understanding of CRE and real estate-related investments, in-house underwriting, asset management, special servicing and resolution capabilities, provides an extensive platform to regularly evaluate our investments and determine primary, secondary or alternative disposition strategies. This includes intermediate servicing and negotiating, restructuring of non-performing investments, foreclosure considerations, management or development of owned real estate, in each case to reposition and achieve optimal value realization for us and our stockholders. Depending on the nature of the underlying investment, we may pursue repositioning strategies through judicious capital investment in order to extract maximum value from the investment or recognize unanticipated losses to reinvest resulting liquidity in higher-yielding performing investments.

Our Business Segments

We present our business through three operating and reportable segments:

• Senior and Mezzanine Loans and Preferred Equity—CRE debt investments including senior and mezzanine loans, and preferred equity interests as well as participations in such loans.
• Net Leased and Other Real Estate—direct investments in commercial real estate with long-term leases to tenants on a net lease basis, where such tenants generally will be responsible for property operating expenses such as insurance, utilities, maintenance, capital expenditures and real estate taxes. It also includes other real estate, currently consisting of one investment with direct ownership in commercial real estate, four additional properties that we acquired through foreclosure or deed-in-lieu of foreclosure and one property that we consolidate as the primary beneficiary.
• Corporate and Other—includes corporate-level asset management and other fees including expenses related to our secured revolving credit facility (the “Bank Credit Facility”) and compensation and benefits. It also includes money market income on our cash balances and a sub-portfolio of private equity funds.

Significant Developments

During the three months ended September 30, 2026, and through October 27, 2026, significant developments affecting our business and results of operations of our portfolio included the following:

Capital Resources

• On October 16, 2026, we closed a $960.0 million securitization transaction, BRSP 2026-FL4. We placed $844.8 million of investment grade securities with institutional investors providing term financing on a non-mark-to-market, non-recourse basis. BRSP 2026-FL4 is collateralized by interests in 29 first-lien floating rate mortgages secured by 38 properties, with an 88.0% initial advance rate at a weighted average coupon at issuance of Term SOFR + 1.54%, before transaction costs;
• On October 19, 2026, we redeemed the outstanding securities under BRSP 2024-FL2, including the investment grade bonds, which totaled $537.8 million. The 26 senior loan investments, with an aggregate unpaid principal balance of $628.9 million, held by BRSP 2024-FL2 were refinanced by the issuance of securities under BRSP 2026-FL4 and with existing Master Repurchase Facilities;
• Declared and paid a third quarter dividend of $0.16 per share on October 14, 2026; and
• Under our Stock Repurchase Program, we have repurchased 2.1 million shares of our Class A common stock at an aggregate cost of $9.9 million.

Our Portfolio

• We originated eight senior mortgage loans for a total commitment of $315.5 million;
• We received loan repayment proceeds of $78.8 million from four loans;
• As of October 27, 2026, our watchlist (loans with a risk ranking of 4 or 5) consisted of the following (refer to “Our Portfolio” for further discussion):
• Five loans with a risk ranking of 4 and total carrying value of $187.0 million;
• Our general CECL reserve increased by $7.5 million from June 30, 2026 to September 30, 2026. At September 30, 2026, our general CECL reserve for our outstanding loans and future loan funding commitments is $107.2 million, which is 3.32% of the aggregate commitment amount of our loan portfolio;
• We recorded specific CECL reserves of $7.8 million related to one office loan that was also charged off during the three months ended September 30, 2026. At September 30, 2026, there were no specific CECL reserves on our consolidated balance sheets;
• Sold one industrial portfolio and one multifamily property for a total gross sales price of $325.1 million. In connection with the sales, we recognized a gain of $60.3 million on the industrial portfolio and recorded impairment of operating real estate of $1.8 million on the multifamily property;
• In October 2026, we sold one multifamily property with a carry value of $32.0 million and recorded impairment of operating real estate of $0.8 million during the three months ended September 30, 2026; and
• Deconsolidated the assets and liabilities of one retail property following the loss of control and recorded impairment of operating real estate of $3.4 million.

Financial Results

• Generated GAAP net income of $46.9 million, or $0.37 per basic and diluted share, Distributable Earnings of $10.3 million or $0.08 per share and Adjusted Distributable Earnings of $17.8 million or $0.14 per share for the three months ended September 30, 2026. Distributable Earnings and Adjusted Distributable Earnings are non-GAAP financial measures. A reconciliation of these measures to net income attributable to the Company’s common stockholders is in the section “Non-GAAP Supplemental Financial Measures” below.

Trends Affecting Our Business

Global Markets

Commercial real estate markets continue to be influenced by elevated interest rates, reduced transaction activity, uncertainty from the Administration’s tariff initiative and trade policy, ongoing geopolitical conflict in the Middle East, and persistent inflationary pressure, particularly in energy prices. In September 2026, the Federal Reserve raised the target range for the federal funds rate by 25 basis points to 3.75% - 4.00%, its first increase since 2023. Minutes of the September meeting indicate that most participants assessed that another increase would likely be appropriate by year-end, although future decisions are expected to depend on incoming information; it is uncertain as to if, when, in which direction, how many and by how much any subsequent changes in the federal funds rate will occur. Higher borrowing costs and conservative lending practices have pressured property valuations and refinancing activity, particularly for loans originated in prior low‑rate environments. 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.

Property fundamentals remain mixed by sector and geography. Multifamily and industrial assets have generally demonstrated more resilient performance, though rent growth has moderated in select markets. Other than in select cities such as Manhattan, NY, Dallas, TX and San Francisco, CA, office properties continue to face structural and demand‑related challenges, which may adversely affect occupancy, cash flows, and valuations, particularly for older or less competitive assets. Given the continuing 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.

While macroeconomic conditions continue to be challenged, we cannot predict whether they will in fact improve or even intensify. Due to the inherent uncertainty of these conditions, their impact on our business is difficult to predict and quantify.

Factors Impacting Our Operating Results

Our results of operations are affected by a number of factors and depend primarily on, among other things, the ability of the borrowers of our assets to service their debt as it is due and payable, the ability of our tenants to pay rent and other amounts due under their leases, our ability to actively and effectively service any sub-performing and non-performing loans and other assets we may have from time to time in our portfolio, the market value of our assets and the supply of, and demand for, CRE senior loans, mezzanine loans, preferred equity, net leased properties and our other assets, and the level of our net operating income (“NOI”). Our net interest income, which includes the amortization of origination and exit fees, varies primarily as a result of changes in market interest rates, prepayment rates and frequency on our CRE loans and the ability of our borrowers to make scheduled interest payments. Interest rates and prepayment rates vary according to the type of investment, conditions in the financial markets, creditworthiness of our borrowers, competition and other factors, none of which can be predicted with any certainty. Our net property operating income depends on our ability to maintain the historical occupancy rates of our real estate equity investments, lease currently available space and continue to attract new tenants.

Changes in fair value of our assets

We consider and treat our assets as long-term investments. As a result, we do not expect that changes in market value will impact our operating results. However, at least on a quarterly basis, we assess both our ability and intent to hold such assets for the long-term. As part of this process, we monitor our assets for impairment. In addition, we maintain an allowance for credit losses on our financial assets in accordance with the CECL methodology, which requires us to estimate expected credit losses over the life of our loans and recognize provisions for loan losses earlier in the lending cycle. A change in our ability and/or intent to continue to hold any of our assets, which includes the inability to modify, extend or refinance existing mortgage debt on our real estate portfolio, may result in our recognizing an impairment charge, an increase in our CECL reserves or realizing losses upon the sale of such investments.

Changes in market interest rates

With respect to our business operations, increases in interest rates, in general, may over time cause:

• the value of our fixed-rate investments to decrease;
• prepayments on certain assets in our portfolio to slow, thereby slowing the amortization of origination and exit fees;
• coupons on our floating and adjustable-rate mortgage loans to reset, although on a delayed basis, to higher interest rates;
• interest rate caps required by our borrowers to increase in cost;
• borrowers’ unwillingness to purchase new interest rate caps at loan maturity to qualify for an extension;
• financial hardship to our borrowers, whose ability to service their debt as it is due and payable and to pass maturity extension tests may be materially adversely impacted, resulting in foreclosures;
• to the extent we use leverage to finance our assets, the interest expense associated with our borrowings to increase; and
• to the extent we enter into interest rate swap agreements as part of our hedging strategy, the value of these agreements to increase.

Conversely, decreases in interest rates, in general, may over time cause:

• the value of the fixed-rate assets in our portfolio to increase;
• prepayments on certain assets in our portfolio to increase, thereby accelerating the amortization of origination and exit fees;
• to the extent we enter into interest rate swap agreements as part of our hedging strategy, the value of these agreements to decrease;
• coupons on our floating and adjustable-rate mortgage loans to reset, although on a delayed basis, to lower interest rates; and
• to the extent we use leverage to finance our assets, the interest expense associated with our borrowings to decrease.

Credit risk

We are subject to varying degrees of credit risk in connection with our target assets. We seek to mitigate this risk by seeking to acquire high quality assets, at appropriate prices given anticipated and unanticipated losses and by employing a comprehensive review and asset selection process and by careful ongoing monitoring of acquired assets. Nevertheless, unanticipated credit losses could occur, which could adversely impact our operating results.

Size of investment portfolio

The size of our portfolio, as measured by the aggregate principal balance of our commercial mortgage loans, other commercial real estate-related debt investments and the other assets we own, is also a key revenue driver. Generally, as the size of our portfolio grows, the amount of interest income we earn increases, but the amount of our expenses also increases to the extent that we incur additional interest expense to finance our assets.

Our Portfolio

As of September 30, 2026, our portfolio consisted of 123 investments representing approximately $3.5 billion in carrying value (based on our share of ownership and excluding cash, cash equivalents and certain other assets). Our senior and mezzanine loans and preferred equity consisted of 111 investments with a weighted average cash coupon of 3.3% and a weighted average all-in unlevered yield of 7.4%. Our net leased and other real estate consisted of approximately 1.7 million total square feet of space and total third quarter 2026 NOI of that portfolio was approximately $6.9 million. Refer to “Non-GAAP Supplemental Financial Measures” below for further information on NOI.

As of September 30, 2026, our portfolio consisted of the following investments (dollars in thousands):

(1) Count for net leased real estate and other real estate represents number of investments.

(2) Carrying value at our share represents the proportionate carrying value based on ownership by asset as of September 30, 2026.

(3) Net carrying value represents carrying value less any associated financing as of September 30, 2026.

(4) Net carrying value at our share represents the proportionate carrying value based on asset ownership less any associated financing based on ownership as of September 30, 2026.

Underwriting Process

We use an investment and underwriting process that has been developed by our senior management team leveraging their extensive commercial real estate expertise over many years and real estate cycles. The underwriting process focuses on some or all of the following factors designed to ensure each investment is evaluated appropriately: (i) macroeconomic conditions that may influence operating performance; (ii) fundamental analysis of underlying real estate, including tenant rosters, lease terms, zoning, necessary licensing, operating costs and the asset’s overall competitive position in its market; (iii) real estate market factors that may influence the economic performance of the investment, including leasing conditions and overall competition; (iv) the operating expertise and financial strength and reputation of a tenant, operator, partner or borrower; (v) the cash flow in place and projected to be in place over the term of the investment and potential return; (vi) the appropriateness of the business plan and estimated costs associated with tenant buildout, repositioning or capital improvements; (vii) an internal and third-party valuation of a property, investment basis relative to the competitive set and the ability to liquidate an investment through a sale or refinancing; (viii) review of third-party reports including appraisals, engineering and environmental reports; (ix) physical inspections of properties and markets; (x) the overall legal structure of the investment, contractual implications and the lenders’ rights; and (xi) the tax and accounting impact.

Loan Risk Rankings

In connection with developing the CECL reserve for our loans and preferred equity held for investment, we determine the risk ranking of each loan and preferred equity investment as a key credit quality indicator. The risk rankings are based on a variety of factors, including, without limitation, underlying real estate performance and asset value, values of comparable properties, durability and quality of property cash flows, borrower/sponsor experience and financial wherewithal, and the existence of a risk-mitigating loan structure. Additional key considerations include loan-to-value ratios, debt service coverage ratios, loan structure, real estate and credit market dynamics, and risk of default or principal loss. Based on a five-point scale, our loans and preferred equity held for investment are rated “1” through “5,” from less risk to greater risk, and the ratings are updated quarterly. At the time of origination or purchase, loans and preferred equity held for investment are ranked as a “3” and will move accordingly going forward based on the ratings which are defined as follows:

1. Very Low Risk

2. Low Risk

3. Medium Risk

4. *High Risk/Potential for Loss—*A loan that has a high risk of realizing a principal loss.

5. *Impaired/Loss Likely—*A loan that has a very high risk of realizing a principal loss or has otherwise incurred a principal loss.

At September 30, 2026, our weighted average risk ranking increased to 3.1 compared to 3.0 at June 30, 2026. During the third quarter of 2026, we had the following risk ranking activity for risk ranked 4 and 5 assets:

• One office loan with a risk ranking of 4 was repaid;
• Downgrades: Two office loans were downgraded to a risk ranking of 4 from a risk ranking of 3.

This represents an increase of $7.5 million from $99.7 million or 3.27% of the aggregate commitment amount of our loan portfolio at June 30, 2026. The increase in our general CECL reserves was primarily driven by macroeconomic conditions, originations activity and other model inputs.

Net Leased and Other Real Estate

We have five direct investments in CRE with long-term leases to tenants on a net lease basis, where such tenants generally will be responsible for property operating expenses such as insurance, utilities, maintenance, capital expenditures and real estate taxes. Additionally, we have one other real estate investment through a joint venture with one partner. We also own four properties included in other real estate that were acquired through deeds-in-lieu of foreclosure and foreclosure and consolidated one property after being deemed the primary beneficiary of the variable interest entity holding it.

Comparison of Three Months Ended September 30, 2026 and Three Months Ended June 30, 2026

Net Interest Income

Interest income

Interest income increased by $4.1 million to $56.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2026, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2026. The increase was primarily due to $4.6 million related to loan originations offset by $1.6 million related to loan repayments.

Interest expense

Interest expense increased by $3.1 million to $37.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2026, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2026. The increase was primarily due to $2.6 million related to the financing of newly originated loans and higher draws on the Bank Credit Facility of $1.0 million. This was partially offset by $0.9 million from paydowns on our Master Repurchase Facilities.

Property and other income

Property operating income

Property operating income increased by $0.4 million to $30.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2026, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2026. The increase was primarily driven by $1.3 million in one time termination fee income from an office property, offset by $1.0 million in lower income from the industrial portfolio sold during the third quarter of 2026.

Other income

Other income decreased by $0.7 million to $0.3 million during the three months ended September 30, 2026, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2026. The decrease was primarily due to lower miscellaneous refunds of $0.6 million related to resolved investments and lower interest income of $0.1 million on a one-time tax refund.

Expenses

Property operating expense

Property operating expense increased by $0.7 million to $19.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2026, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2026.

Interest expense on real estate

Interest expense on real estate decreased by $0.5 million to $4.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2026, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2026. The decrease was primarily driven by $0.6 million related to the industrial portfolio sold during the third quarter of 2026.

Depreciation and amortization

Depreciation and amortization expense decreased by $4.1 million to $4.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2026, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2026. The decrease was primarily driven by $2.6 million lower expense related to three assets classified as held for sale during the second and third quarters of 2026 and $1.4 million related to fully amortized intangible assets at a multifamily property.

Increase of current expected credit loss reserve

During the three months ended September 30, 2026, we recorded an increase in CECL reserves of $15.0 million. The increase was due to a net increase in general reserves of $7.5 million driven by macroeconomic conditions, originations activity and other model inputs. We also recorded $7.5 million of specific reserves primarily related to one office loan that was resolved in the third quarter of 2026 and the specific reserves were charged off during the three months ended September 30, 2026.

During the three months ended June 30, 2026, we recorded an increase in CECL reserves of $13.5 million. The increase was due to a net increase in general reserves of $12.5 million driven by macroeconomic conditions and other model inputs. We also recorded $1.0 million of specific reserves related to three multifamily loans that were resolved in the second quarter of 2026, all of which were charged off during the three months ended June 30, 2026.

Impairment of operating real estate

During the three months ended September 30, 2026, we recorded impairment of $6.0 million related to one retail property which was deconsolidated following the loss of control over the property and two multifamily properties.

During the three months ended June 30, 2026, we recorded impairment of $5.5 million related to two retail properties, one of which was deconsolidated following the loss of control over the property. We also recorded $3.8 million related to a multifamily property classified as real estate held for sale.

Compensation and benefits

Compensation and benefits increased by $0.2 million to $9.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2026, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2026 due to higher stock compensation expense.

Operating expense

Operating expense decreased by $0.1 million to $3.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2026, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2026 due to lower third-party costs incurred.

Other income

Other gain (loss), net

We recorded other gain, net of $60.3 million during the three months ended September 30, 2026 related to the sale of an industrial portfolio. We recorded a de minimis other loss, net during the three months ended June 30, 2026.

Equity in earnings (loss) of unconsolidated ventures

There was no equity in earnings (loss) recognized during the three months ended September 30, 2026. We recorded equity in earnings (loss) of $0.6 million during the three months ended June 30, 2026 related to the fair value loss on one investment held in an unconsolidated venture.

Net Interest Income

Interest income

Interest income increased by $12.1 million to $157.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2025. The increase was primarily due to $49.3 million in loan originations. This was partially offset by $26.5 million related to loan repayments, $6.5 million from loans now classified as real estate and $5.5 million due to lower interest rates.

Interest expense

Interest expense increased by $10.6 million to $106.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2025. The increase was primarily due to $13.6 million related to the net impact of the BRSP 2026-FL3 issuance and the unwinding of the BRSP 2021-FL1 securitization trust following the redemption of all outstanding securities thereunder, $10.5 million related to financing on new originations and $2.0 million relating to draws on the Bank Credit Facility. This was partially offset by $11.0 million related to repayments and $3.7 million related to lower interest rates.

Property and other income

Property operating income

Property operating income decreased by $1.1 million to $93.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2025. The decrease was primarily due to $16.9 million from four subsidiaries deconsolidated during 2025 and 2026 and $6.9 million from properties sold during 2025 and 2026, partially offset by $20.3 million from properties acquired during 2025 and 2026 and $2.4 million in higher income at two multifamily and one office property.

Other income

Other income decreased by $2.4 million to $4.4 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2026, as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2025. The decrease was primarily due to lower money market interest of $4.1 million and lower miscellaneous refunds of $0.7 million related to resolved investments, partially offset by $2.4 million of interest income on a one-time tax refund that was recognized in the first quarter of 2026.

Expenses

Property operating expense

Property operating expense increased by $11.5 million to $57.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2025. The increase was primarily due to $20.8 million from properties acquired during 2025 and 2026, partially offset by $4.5 million from four subsidiaries deconsolidated during 2025 and 2026 and $4.2 million from properties sold during 2025 and 2026.

Transaction, investment and servicing expense

Transaction, investment and servicing expense increased by $1.7 million to $3.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2025. The increase was primarily due to higher deal-level legal expenses of $1.3 million and higher loan service fees of $0.2 million.

Interest expense on real estate

Interest expense on real estate decreased by $3.6 million to $14.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2025. This decrease was primarily due to $4.0 million from two subsidiaries deconsolidated during 2025 and 2026 and $0.7 million from an industrial portfolio sold during the third quarter of 2026, partially offset by $1.0 million from one property acquired in 2025.

Depreciation and amortization

Depreciation and amortization expense decreased by $7.4 million to $20.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2025. The decrease was primarily due to $5.1 million from five subsidiaries deconsolidated during 2025 and 2026, $3.9 million from properties sold during 2025 and 2026, $3.6 million from fully amortized in-place leases at two multifamily properties and $0.9 million from fully depreciated improvements at two net lease properties, partially offset by $6.3 million from properties acquired during 2025 and the first quarter of 2026.

Increase of current expected credit loss reserve

During the nine months ended September 30, 2026, we recorded an increase in CECL reserves of $30.3 million. The increase was driven by a net increase in general reserves of $19.2 million and a net increase in specific CECL reserves of $11.1 million. The increase in general reserves was driven by macroeconomic conditions and other model inputs. The increase in specific reserves was related to three multifamily loans, two office loans and one industrial loan that were resolved during the nine months ended September 30, 2026. As a result, all specific reserves were charged off during the nine months ended September 30, 2026.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, we recorded a net increase in CECL reserves of $8.6 million. The increase was driven by a net increase in specific CECL reserves of $46.2 million partially offset by a net decrease in general reserves of $37.6 million. The increase in specific CECL reserves was attributable to two multifamily loans, one office loan and one hotel loan, all of which were charged off during the nine months ended September 30, 2025.

Impairment of operating real estate

During the nine months ended September 30, 2026, we recorded impairment of $8.8 million on three retail properties that were deconsolidated following the loss of control over the properties. We also recorded $6.4 million related to two multifamily properties that were sold or classified as held for sale during the nine months ended September 30, 2026.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, we recorded $53.6 million of impairment related to our Norwegian net lease office campus and our Pennsylvania office property. We deconsolidated the assets and liabilities of both properties during the nine months ended September 30, 2025.

Compensation and benefits

Compensation and benefits increased by $0.5 million to $27.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2025, primarily due to higher employee compensation and benefit expense.

Operating expense

Operating expense increased by $0.3 million to $9.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2025, primarily due to higher third-party costs incurred.

Other income (loss)

Other gain (loss), net

We recorded other gain, net of $60.3 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2026 related to the gain on the sale of an industrial portfolio in the third quarter of 2026. We recorded other loss, net of $3.1 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 related to the reclassification of $22.0 million of foreign currency translation loss offset by $18.6 million of designated hedge gains from accumulated other comprehensive income following the resolution of our Norwegian net lease office campus in the second quarter of 2025.

Equity in earnings (loss) of unconsolidated ventures

We recorded equity in earnings (loss) of $0.6 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2026 related to the fair value loss on one investment held in an unconsolidated venture. There was no equity in earnings (loss) recognized during the nine months ended September 30, 2025.

Income tax benefit (expense)

We recorded income tax expense of $0.1 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and we recorded an income tax benefit of $21.5 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2025. The tax benefit was primarily due to a $22.1 million deferred tax liability write-off when an investment subsidiary reached a maturity default on its bond financing collateralized by our Norwegian net lease office campus. Following the maturity default, the lenders exercised remedies and took control by equity pledge of the underlying investment subsidiary.

Non-GAAP Supplemental Financial Measures

Distributable Earnings

We present Distributable Earnings, which is a non-GAAP supplemental financial measure of our performance. We believe that Distributable Earnings provides meaningful information to consider in addition to our net income and cash flow from operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP, and this metric is a useful indicator for investors in evaluating and comparing our operating performance to our peers and our ability to pay dividends. We elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, beginning with our taxable year ended December 31, 2018. As a REIT, we are required to distribute substantially all of our taxable income, and we believe that dividends are one of the principal reasons investors invest in credit or commercial mortgage REITs such as our company. Over time, Distributable Earnings has been a useful indicator of our dividends per share and we consider that measure in determining the dividend, if any, to be paid. This supplemental financial measure also 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 portfolio and operations.

We define Distributable Earnings as GAAP net income (loss) attributable to our common stockholders (or, without duplication, the owners of the common equity of our direct subsidiaries, such as our OP) and excluding (i) non-cash equity compensation expense, (ii) the expenses incurred in connection with our formation or other strategic transactions, (iii) acquisition costs from successful acquisitions, (iv) gains or losses from sales of real estate property and impairment write-downs of depreciable real estate, including unconsolidated joint ventures and preferred equity investments, (v) general CECL reserves, (vi) depreciation and amortization, (vii) any unrealized gains or losses or other similar non-cash items that are included in net income for the current quarter, regardless of whether such items are included in other comprehensive income or loss, or in net income, (viii) one-time events pursuant to changes in GAAP and (ix) certain material non-cash income or expense items that in the judgment of management should not be included in Distributable Earnings. For clauses (viii) and (ix), such exclusions shall only be applied after approval by a majority of our independent directors. Distributable Earnings include specific CECL reserves.

Additionally, we define Adjusted Distributable Earnings as Distributable Earnings excluding (i) realized gains and losses on asset sales, (ii) fair value adjustments, which represent mark-to-market adjustments to investments in unconsolidated ventures based on an exit price, defined as the estimated price that would be received upon the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants, (iii) unrealized gains or losses, (iv) specific CECL reserves and (v) one-time gains or losses that in the judgement of management should not be included in Adjusted Distributable Earnings. We believe Adjusted Distributable Earnings is a useful indicator for investors to further evaluate and compare our operating performance to our peers and our ability to pay dividends, net of the impact of any gains or losses on assets sales or fair value adjustments, as described above.

Distributable Earnings and Adjusted Distributable Earnings do not represent net income or cash generated from operating activities and should not be considered as an alternative to GAAP net income or an indication of our cash flows from operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP, a measure of our liquidity, or an indication of funds available to fund our cash needs. In addition, our methodology for calculating Distributable Earnings and Adjusted Distributable Earnings may differ from methodologies employed by other companies to calculate the same or similar non-GAAP supplemental financial measures, and accordingly, our reported Distributable Earnings and Adjusted Distributable Earnings may not be comparable to the Distributable Earnings and Adjusted Distributable Earnings reported by other companies.

The following tables present a reconciliation of net income attributable to our common stockholders to Distributable Earnings and Adjusted Distributable Earnings attributable to our common stockholders (dollars and share amounts in thousands, except per share data) for the three months ended September 30, 2026, June 30, 2026 and March 31, 2026 and the three months ended September 30, 2025, June 30, 2025 and March 31, 2025:

(1) We calculate Distributable Earnings per share, and Adjusted Distributable Earnings per share, non-GAAP financial measures, based on a weighted-average number of common shares. The weighted average number of common shares includes unvested restricted stock.

Undepreciated Book Value Per Share

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 as it enhances the comparability to our peers who do not hold similar 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) and as of the quarter ended June 30, 2024, includes non-GAAP impairment of real estate and any related foreign currency translation. Non-GAAP impairment of real estate is a non-GAAP measure that reflects our share of a property’s carrying value on certain net leased and other real estate office properties whose non-recourse mortgages have matured or who have been placed in a cash flow sweep by their lender. 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 and have led to foreclosures. Cash flow sweeps restrict our ability to utilize earnings generated by a property. As such, we believe it is prudent to recognize impairments and exclude our share of the carrying value related to these properties.

The following table calculates our GAAP book value per share and Undepreciated Book Value per share ($ in thousands, except per share data):

(1) Per share data may differ due to rounding.

NOI

We believe NOI to be a useful measure of operating performance of our net leased and other real estate portfolios as they are more closely linked to the direct results of operations at the property level. NOI excludes historical cost depreciation and amortization, which are based on different useful life estimates depending on the age of the properties, as well as adjustments for the effects of real estate impairment and gains or losses on sales of depreciated properties, which eliminate differences arising from investment and disposition decisions. Additionally, by excluding corporate level expenses or benefits such as interest expense, any gain or loss on early extinguishment of debt and income taxes, which are incurred by the parent entity and are not directly linked to the operating performance of the Company’s properties, NOI provides a measure of operating performance independent of the Company’s capital structure and indebtedness. However, the exclusion of these items as well as others, such as capital expenditures and leasing costs, which are necessary to maintain the operating performance of the Company’s properties, and transaction costs and administrative costs, may limit the usefulness of NOI. NOI may fail to capture significant trends in these components of GAAP net income (loss) which further limits its usefulness.

NOI should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss), determined in accordance with GAAP, as an indicator of operating performance. In addition, our methodology for calculating NOI involves subjective judgment and discretion and may differ from the methodologies used by other companies, when calculating the same or similar supplemental financial measures and may not be comparable with other companies.

The following tables present a reconciliation of net income on our net leased and other real estate portfolios attributable to our common stockholders to NOI attributable to our common stockholders (dollars in thousands) for the three months ended September 30, 2026, June 30, 2026 and March 31, 2026 and the three months ended September 30, 2025, June 30, 2025 and March 31, 2025:

(1) Net income attributable to non-net leased and other real estate portfolios includes net (income) loss on our senior and mezzanine loans and preferred equity and corporate and other business segments.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Overview

Our material cash commitments include commitments to repay borrowings, finance our assets and operations, meet future funding obligations, make distributions to our stockholders and fund other general business needs. We use significant cash to make investments, meet commitments to existing investments, repay the principal of and interest on our borrowings and pay other financing costs, make distributions to our stockholders and fund our operations.

Our primary sources of liquidity include cash on hand, cash generated from our operating activities and cash generated from asset sales and investment maturities. However, subject to maintaining our qualification as a REIT and our Investment Company Act exclusion, we may use several sources to finance our business, including bank credit facilities (including term loans and revolving facilities), Master Repurchase Facilities and securitizations, as described below. In addition to our current sources of liquidity, there may be opportunities from time to time to access liquidity through public offerings of debt and equity securities. We have sufficient sources of liquidity to meet our material cash commitments for the next 12 months and the foreseeable future.

Financing Strategy

We have a multi-pronged financing strategy that includes an up to $120.0 million secured revolving credit facility, up to approximately $2.4 billion in secured revolving repurchase facilities, $1.4 billion in non-recourse securitization financing, $178.9 million in commercial mortgages and $33.3 million in other asset-level financing structures, in each case, as of September 30, 2026.

In addition, we may use other forms of financing, including warehouse facilities, public and private secured and unsecured debt issuances and equity or equity-related securities issuances by us or our subsidiaries. We may also finance a portion of our investments through the syndication of one or more interests in a whole loan. We will seek to match the nature and duration of the financing with the underlying asset’s cash flow, including using hedges, as appropriate.

Debt-to-Equity Ratio

The following table presents our debt-to-equity ratio:

(1) Represents (i) total consolidated outstanding secured debt less cash and cash equivalents of $63.6 million and $66.8 million at September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively to (ii) total equity, in each case, at period end.

(2) Excluding the impact of accumulated depreciation and amortization on real estate investments and including the impact of non-GAAP impairment of real estate, the debt-to-equity ratio was 2.6x and 2.3x at September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively.

Potential Sources of Liquidity

As discussed in greater detail above under “Trends Affecting our Business,” and “Factors Impacting Our Operating Results” overall market uncertainty coupled with rising inflation and high interest rates have tempered the loan financing markets recently. A high interest rate environment will result in increased interest expense on our variable rate debt that is not hedged and may result in disruptions to our borrowers’ and tenants’ ability to finance their activities, which would similarly adversely impact their ability to make their monthly mortgage payments and meet their loan obligations. Additionally, due to the current market conditions, warehouse lenders may take a more conservative stance by increasing funding costs, which may lead to margin calls.

Our primary sources of liquidity include borrowings available under our credit facilities, Master Repurchase Facilities and monthly mortgage payments from our borrowers.

Bank Credit Facilities

We use bank credit facilities (including term loans and revolving facilities) to finance our business. These financings may be collateralized or non-collateralized and may involve one or more lenders. Credit facilities typically have maturities ranging from two to five years and may accrue interest at either fixed or floating rates.

The OP (together with certain subsidiaries of the OP from time-to-time party thereto as borrowers, collectively, the “Borrowers”) is party to an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (as amended to date, the “Amended Credit Agreement”) with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent (the “Administrative Agent”), and the several lenders from time to time party thereto (the “Lenders”). The Amended Credit Agreement provides for a revolving credit facility in the aggregate principal amount of up to $120.0 million, of which up to $25.0 million is available as letters of credit.

Loans under the Amended Credit Agreement may be advanced in U.S. dollars and certain foreign currencies, including euros, pounds sterling and Swiss francs.

The Amended Credit Agreement also includes an option for the Borrowers to increase the maximum available principal amount to up to $180.0 million, subject to one or more new or existing Lenders agreeing to provide such additional loan commitments and satisfaction of other customary conditions.

Advances under the Amended Credit Agreement accrue interest at a per annum rate equal to, at the applicable Borrower’s election, either (x) a Term SOFR rate plus a margin of 2.25%, or (y) a base rate equal to the highest of (i) the Wall Street Journal’s prime rate, (ii) the federal funds rate plus 0.50% and (iii) the Term SOFR rate plus 1.00%, plus a margin of 1.25%. An unused commitment fee at a rate of 0.25% or 0.35%, per annum, depending on the amount of facility utilization, applies to unutilized borrowing capacity under the Amended Credit Agreement. Amounts owed under the Amended Credit Agreement may be prepaid at any time without premium or penalty, subject to customary breakage costs in the case of borrowings with respect to which a Term SOFR rate election is in effect.

The maximum amount available for borrowing at any time under the Amended Credit Agreement is limited to a borrowing base valuation of certain investment assets, with the valuation of such investment assets generally determined according to a percentage of adjusted net book value. As of September 30, 2026, the borrowing base valuation is sufficient to permit borrowings of up to the entire $120.0 million commitment. If any borrowing is outstanding for more than 180 days after its initial draw, the borrowing base valuation will be reduced by 50% until all outstanding borrowings are repaid in full. The ability to borrow new amounts under the Amended Credit Agreement terminates and any outstanding revolving loans will mature on December 8, 2028.

The obligations of the Borrowers under the Amended Credit Agreement are guaranteed pursuant to a Guarantee and Collateral Agreement by substantially all material wholly owned subsidiaries of the OP (the “Guarantors”) in favor of the Administrative Agent (the “Guarantee and Collateral Agreement”) and, subject to certain exceptions, secured by a pledge of substantially all equity interests owned by the Borrowers and the Guarantors, as well as by a security interest in deposit accounts of the

Borrowers and the Guarantors (as such terms are defined in the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement) in which the proceeds of investment asset distributions are maintained.

The Amended Credit Agreement contains various affirmative and negative covenants, including, among other things, the obligation of the Company to maintain REIT status and be listed on the New York Stock Exchange or any other U.S. national or international securities exchange, and limitations on debt, liens and restricted payments. In addition, the Amended Credit Agreement includes the following financial covenants applicable to the OP and its consolidated subsidiaries: (a) minimum consolidated tangible net worth of the OP to be greater than or equal to the sum of (i) $900,000,000 and (ii) 70% of the net cash proceeds received by the OP from any offering of its common equity after December 9, 2025 and of the net cash proceeds from any offering by the Company of its common equity to the extent such proceeds are contributed to the OP, excluding any such proceeds that are contributed to the OP within ninety (90) days of receipt and applied to acquire capital stock of the OP; (b) the OP’s EBITDA plus lease expenses to fixed charges for any period of four consecutive fiscal quarters not less than 1.40 to 1.00; (c) the OP’s minimum interest coverage ratio to be not less than 3.00 to 1.00; and (d) the OP’s ratio of consolidated total debt to consolidated total assets must not exceed 0.80 to 1.00. The Amended Credit Agreement also includes customary events of default, including, among other things, failure to make payments when due, breach of covenants or representations, cross default to material indebtedness, material judgment defaults, bankruptcy matters involving any Borrower or any Guarantor and certain change of control events. The occurrence of an event of default will limit the ability of the OP and its subsidiaries to make distributions and may result in the termination of the credit facility, acceleration of repayment obligations and the exercise of remedies by the Lenders with respect to the collateral.

As of September 30, 2026, the Company was in compliance with all of its financial covenants under the Amended Credit Agreement.

Master Repurchase Facilities

Currently, our primary sources of financing the origination of first mortgage loans and senior loan participations secured by senior loan investments are our repurchase agreements with multiple global financial institutions (each, a “Master Repurchase Facility” and collectively, the “Master Repurchase Facilities”). The Master Repurchase Facilities, effectively allow us to borrow against loans that we own in an amount generally equal to (i) the market value of such loans multiplied by (ii) the applicable advance rate. Under these agreements, we sell our loans to a counterparty and agree to repurchase the same loans from the counterparty at a price equal to the original sales price plus an interest factor. During the term of a repurchase agreement, we receive the principal and interest on the related loans and pay interest to the lender under the master repurchase agreement. We intend to maintain formal relationships with multiple counterparties to obtain master repurchase financing.

The following table presents a summary of our Master Repurchase Facilities and Bank Credit Facility as of September 30, 2026 (dollars in thousands):

(1) All facilities utilize Term SOFR at September 30, 2026.

The following table presents the quarterly average unpaid principal balance (“UPB”), end of period UPB and the maximum UPB at any month-end related to our Master Repurchase Facilities and Bank Credit Facility (dollars in thousands):

71

The increase in our end of period UPB from June 30, 2026 to September 30, 2026 was driven by financing draws.

Securitizations

We may seek to utilize non-recourse long-term securitizations of our investments in mortgage loans, especially loan originations, to the extent consistent with the maintenance of our REIT qualification and exclusion from the Investment Company Act in order to generate cash for funding new investments. This would involve conveying a pool of assets to a special purpose vehicle (or the issuing entity), which would issue one or more classes of non-recourse notes pursuant to the terms of an indenture. The notes would be secured by the pool of assets. In exchange for the transfer of assets to the issuing entity, we would receive the cash proceeds on the sale of non-recourse notes and a 100% interest in the equity of the issuing entity. The securitization of our portfolio investments might magnify our exposure to losses on those portfolio investments because any equity interest we retain in the issuing entity would be subordinate to the notes issued to investors and we would, therefore, absorb all of the losses sustained with respect to a securitized pool of assets before the owners of the notes experience any losses.

BRSP 2021-FL1

On February 19, 2026, we redeemed the outstanding securities under the securitization vehicle operated through wholly-owned subsidiaries, BRSP 2021-FL1, Ltd and BRSP 2021-FL1, LLC (collectively, “BRSP 2021-FL1”) including the investment grade notes issued thereunder, at a redemption price of $310.7 million. The 17 senior loan investments, with an aggregate unpaid principal balance of $440.8 million, held by BRSP 2021-FL1 were refinanced by the issuance of securities under BRSP 2026-FL3 and with existing Master Repurchase Facilities.

BRSP 2024-FL2

BRSP 2024-FL2 is a $675.0 million securitization vehicle operated through wholly-owned subsidiaries, BRSP 2024-FL2, Ltd. and BRSP 2024-FL2, LLC (collectively, “BRSP 2024-FL2”), which have issued $583.9 million of investment grade notes (the “2024-FL2 Notes”).

BRSP 2024-FL2 includes a two-year reinvestment feature that allows us to contribute existing or newly originated loan investments in exchange for proceeds from repayments of loans held in BRSP 2024-FL2, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions set forth in the indenture. At September 30, 2026, we had $628.9 million of unpaid principal balance of CRE debt investments and other assets financed with BRSP 2024-FL2. As of September 30, 2026, the securitization reflects an advance rate of 85.5% at a weighted average cost of funds of Term SOFR plus 2.51% (before transaction costs), and is collateralized by a pool of 26 senior loan investments.

Additionally, BRSP 2024-FL2 contains note protection tests that can be triggered as a result of contributed loan defaults, losses, and certain other events outlined in the indenture, beyond established thresholds. A note protection test failure that is not remedied can result in the redirection of interest proceeds from the below investment grade tranches to amortize the most senior outstanding tranche. We did not fail any note protection tests during the nine months ended September 30, 2026. While we continue to closely monitor all loan investments contributed to BRSP 2024-FL2, a deterioration in the performance of an underlying loan could negatively impact its liquidity position.

On October 19, 2026, we redeemed the outstanding securities under the BRSP 2024-FL2 securitization vehicle, including the investment grade notes issued thereunder, at a redemption price of $537.8 million.

BRSP 2026-FL3

In February 2026, we executed a $955.0 million securitization transaction through wholly-owned subsidiaries, BRSP 2026-FL3, Ltd. and BRSP 2026-FL3, LLC (collectively, “BRSP 2026-FL3”), which resulted in the sale of $833.2 million of investment grade notes (the “2026-FL3 Notes”).

BRSP 2026-FL3 includes a six-month ramp-up acquisition period that allows us to contribute existing or newly originated loan investments in exchange for $98.3 million in unused proceeds held in BRSP 2026-FL3, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions set forth in the indenture. At September 30, 2026, the unused proceeds have been fully utilized. BRSP 2026-FL3 also includes a 30-month reinvestment feature that allows us to contribute existing or newly originated loan investments in exchange for proceeds from repayments of loans held in BRSP 2026-FL3, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions set forth in the indenture.

At September 30, 2026, we had $955.0 million of unpaid principal balance of CRE debt investments financed with BRSP 2026-FL3. As of September 30, 2026, the securitization reflects an advance rate of 87.3% at a weighted average cost of funds of Term SOFR plus 1.69% (before transaction costs), and is collateralized by a pool of 32 senior loan investments.

Additionally, BRSP 2026-FL3 contains note protection tests that can be triggered as a result of contributed loan defaults, losses, and certain other events outlined in the indenture, beyond established thresholds. A note protection test failure that is not remedied can result in the redirection of interest proceeds from the below investment grade tranches to amortize the most senior outstanding tranche. We did not fail any note protection tests during the nine months ended September 30, 2026. While we continue to closely monitor all loan investments contributed to BRSP 2026-FL3, a deterioration in the performance of an underlying loan could negatively impact its liquidity position.

BRSP 2026-FL4

On October 16, 2026, we executed a $960.0 million securitization transaction through wholly-owned subsidiaries, BRSP 2026-FL4, Ltd. and BRSP 2026-FL4, LLC (collectively, “BRSP 2026-FL4”), which resulted in the sale of $844.8 million of investment grade notes (the “2026-FL4 Notes”). The securitization reflects an initial advance rate of 88.0% at a weighted average coupon at issuance of Term SOFR+1.54% (before transaction costs) and is collateralized by a pool of 29 first-lien floating-rate mortgages secured by 38 properties.

Other potential sources of financing

In the future, we may also use other sources of financing to fund the acquisition of our target assets, including secured and unsecured forms of borrowing and selective wind-down and dispositions of assets. We may also seek to raise equity capital or issue debt securities in order to fund our future investments.

Liquidity Needs

In addition to our loan origination activity and general operating expenses, our primary liquidity needs include interest and principal payments under our Bank Credit Facility, securitization bonds, and secured debt. Information concerning our contractual obligations and commitments to make future payments, including our commitments to repay borrowings, is included in the following table as of September 30, 2026. This table excludes our obligations that are not fixed and determinable (dollars in thousands):

(1) Future interest payments were estimated based on the applicable index at September 30, 2026 and unused commitment fee of 0.25% per annum, assuming principal is repaid on the current maturity date of January 2027.

(2) Amounts include minimum principal and interest obligations through the initial maturity date of the collateral assets. Interest on floating rate debt was determined based on Term SOFR at September 30, 2026.

(3) The timing of future principal payments was estimated based on expected future cash flows of underlying collateral loans. Repayments are estimated to be earlier than contractual maturity only if proceeds from underlying loans are repaid by the borrowers.

(4) The amounts represent minimum future base rent commitments through initial expiration dates of the respective noncancellable operating ground leases, excluding any contingent rent payments. Rents paid under ground leases are recoverable from tenants.

(5) Future lending commitments may be subject to certain conditions that borrowers must meet to qualify for such fundings. Commitment amount assumes future fundings meet the terms to qualify for such fundings.

Share Repurchases

In April 2026, our board of directors authorized a stock repurchase program (“Stock Repurchase Program”) under which we may repurchase up to $50.0 million of our outstanding Class A common stock until April 30, 2027. The Stock Repurchase Program replaced the prior stock repurchase program authorization which expired on April 30, 2026. Under the Stock

Repurchase Program, we may repurchase shares in open market purchases, in privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. We have a written trading plan as part of the Share Repurchase Program that provides for share repurchases in open market transactions that is intended to comply with Rule 10b-18 under the Exchange Act. The Stock Repurchase Program will be utilized at our discretion and in accordance with the requirements of the SEC. The timing and actual number of shares repurchased will depend on a variety of factors including price, corporate requirements and other conditions.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2026, we repurchased 5.6 million shares of Class A common stock at a weighted average price of $5.23 per share for an aggregate cost of $29.5 million. As of September 30, 2026, there was $20.5 million remaining available to make repurchases under the Stock Repurchase Program.

Cash Flows

The following presents a summary of our consolidated statements of cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025 (dollars in thousands):

Operating Activities

Cash inflows from operating activities are generated primarily through interest received from loans and preferred equity held for investment, and property operating income from our real estate portfolio. This is partially offset by payment of interest expenses for master repurchase and credit facilities and mortgages payable, and operating expenses supporting our various lines of business, including property management and operations, loan servicing and workout of loans in default, investment transaction costs, as well as general administrative costs.

Our operating activities provided net cash inflows of $57.0 million and $57.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. Net cash provided by operating activities decreased for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2025 primarily due to resolutions on net lease office properties offset by higher expenses on real estate acquisitions.

We believe cash flows from operations, available cash balances and our ability to generate cash through short and long-term borrowings are sufficient to fund our operating liquidity needs.

Investing Activities

Investing activities include cash outlays for disbursements on new and/or existing loans, which are partially offset by repayments of loans held for investment.

Investing activities used net cash of $311.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026. Net cash used in investing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2026 resulted primarily from origination and fundings on our loans and preferred equity held for investment, net of $835.0 million, partially offset by repayments on loans and preferred equity held for investment, net of $372.1 million and proceeds from the sale of real estate of $148.6 million.

Investing activities used net cash inflows of $88.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. Net cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 resulted primarily from origination and fundings on our loans and preferred equity held for investment, net of $356.6 million, partially offset by repayments on loans and preferred equity held for investment, net of $243.6 million and proceeds from the sale of real estate $39.6 million.

Financing Activities

We finance our investing activities largely through borrowings secured by our investments along with capital from third party investors. We also have the ability to raise capital in the public markets through issuances of common stock, as well as draws upon our corporate credit facility and master repurchase facilities, to finance our investing and operating activities. Accordingly, we incur cash outlays for payments on third party debt and dividends to our common stockholders.

Financing activities generated net cash of $258.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, which resulted primarily from borrowings from master repurchase and credit facilities of $1.2 billion and borrowings from securitization bonds of $833.2 million, partially offset by repayment of master repurchase and credit facilities of $1.3 billion, repayment of securitization bonds of $444.3 million and distributions paid on common stock of $63.0 million.

Financing activities used net cash of $198.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, which resulted primarily from repayment of master repurchase and credit facilities of $235.8 million, repayment of securitization bonds of $111.7 million and distributions paid on common stock of $62.4 million, partially offset by borrowings from master repurchase and credit facilities of $229.3 million.

Our Investment Strategy

Our objective is to generate consistent and attractive risk-adjusted returns to our stockholders. We seek to achieve this objective primarily through cash distributions and the preservation of invested capital. We believe our investment strategy provides flexibility through economic cycles to achieve attractive risk-adjusted returns. This approach is driven by a disciplined investment strategy, focused on:

• leveraging long standing relationships, our organizational structure and the experience of our team;
• the underlying real estate and market dynamics to identify investments with attractive risk-return profiles;
• primarily originating and structuring CRE senior loans and selective investments in mezzanine loans and preferred equity with attractive return profiles relative to the underlying value and financial operating performance of the real estate collateral, given the strength and quality of the sponsorship;
• structuring transactions with a prudent amount of leverage, if any, given the risk of the underlying asset’s cash flows, attempting to match the structure and duration of the financing with the underlying asset’s cash flows, including through the use of hedges, as appropriate; and
• operating our net leased real estate investments in an efficient and profitable manner, enhancing property value through proactive capital improvements and leasing strategies, and pursuing sale transactions to capture appreciation.

The period for which we intend to hold our investments will vary depending on the type of asset, interest rates, investment performance, micro and macro real estate environment, capital markets and credit availability, among other factors. We generally expect to hold debt investments until the stated maturity and equity investments in accordance with each investment’s proposed business plan. We may sell all or a partial ownership interest in an investment before the end of the expected holding period if we believe that market conditions have maximized its value to us, or the sale of the asset would otherwise be in the best interests of our stockholders.

Our investment strategy is flexible, enabling us to adapt to shifts in economic, real estate and capital market conditions and to exploit market inefficiencies. We may expand or change our investment strategy or target assets over time in response to opportunities available in different economic and capital market conditions. This flexibility in our investment strategy allows us to employ a customized, solutions-oriented approach, which we believe is attractive to borrowers and tenants. We believe that our diverse portfolio, our ability to originate, acquire and manage our target assets and the flexibility of our investment strategy positions us to capitalize on market inefficiencies and generate attractive long-term risk-adjusted returns for our stockholders through a variety of market conditions and economic cycles.

Underwriting, Asset and Risk Management

We closely monitor our portfolio and actively manage risks associated with, among other things, our assets and interest rates. Prior to investing in any particular asset, the underwriting team, in conjunction with third party providers, undertakes a rigorous asset-level due diligence process, involving intensive data collection and analysis, to ensure that we understand fully the state of the market and the risk-reward profile of the asset. Our investment and portfolio management and risk assessment practices diligence the sustainability and other standards of our business counterparties, including borrowers, sponsors and that of our investment assets and underlying collateral, which may include sustainability initiatives, recycling, energy efficiency and water management, volunteer and charitable efforts, anti-money laundering and know-your-client policies, and engagement and belonging practices in workforce leadership, composition and hiring practices. Prior to making a final investment decision, we focus on portfolio diversification to determine whether a target asset will cause our portfolio to be too heavily concentrated with, or cause too much risk exposure to, any one borrower, real estate sector, geographic region, source of cash flow for payment or other geopolitical issues. If we determine that a proposed acquisition presents excessive concentration risk, we may determine not to acquire an otherwise attractive asset.

For each asset that we acquire, our asset management team engages in active management of the asset, the intensity of which depends on the attendant risks. The asset manager works collaboratively with the underwriting team to formulate a strategic plan for the particular asset, which includes evaluating the underlying collateral and updating valuation assumptions to reflect changes in the real estate market and the general economy. This plan also generally outlines several strategies for the asset to extract the maximum amount of value from each asset under a variety of market conditions. Such strategies may vary depending on the type of asset, the availability of refinancing options, recourse and maturity, but may include, among others, the restructuring of non-performing or sub-performing loans, the negotiation of discounted payoffs or other modification of the terms governing a loan, and the foreclosure and management of assets underlying non-performing loans in order to reposition them for profitable disposition. We continuously track the progress of an asset against the original business plan to ensure that the attendant risks of continuing to own the asset do not outweigh the associated rewards. Under these circumstances, certain assets will require intensified asset management in order to achieve optimal value realization.

Our asset management team engages in a proactive and comprehensive on-going review of the credit quality of each asset it manages. In particular, for debt investments on at least an annual basis, the asset management team will evaluate the financial wherewithal of individual borrowers to meet contractual obligations as well as review the financial stability of the assets securing such debt investments. Further, there is ongoing review of borrower covenant compliance including the ability of borrowers to meet certain negotiated debt service coverage ratios and debt yield tests. For equity investments, the asset management team, with the assistance of third-party property managers, monitors and reviews key metrics such as occupancy, same-store sales, tenant payment rates, property budgets and capital expenditures. If through this analysis of credit quality, the asset management team encounters declines in credit quality not in accordance with the original business plan, the team evaluates the risks and determines what changes, if any, are required to the business plan to ensure that the attendant risks of continuing to hold the investment do not outweigh the associated rewards.

In addition, the audit committee of our board of directors, in consultation with management, periodically reviews our policies with respect to risk assessment and risk management, including key risks to which we are subject, including credit risk, liquidity risk and market risk, and the steps that management has taken to monitor and control such risks.

Inflation

Virtually all of our assets and liabilities are interest rate sensitive in nature. As a result, interest rates and other factors influence our performance significantly more than inflation does. A change in interest rates may correlate with the inflation rate. Substantially all of the leases at our multifamily properties allow for monthly or annual rent increases which provide us with the opportunity to achieve increases, where justified by the market, as each lease matures. Such types of leases generally minimize the risks of inflation on our multifamily properties.

Refer to Item 3, “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” for additional details.

Critical Accounting Estimates

Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, or U.S. GAAP, which requires the use of estimates and assumptions that involve the exercise of judgment and that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. There have been no material changes to our critical accounting estimates described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025.

Recent Accounting Updates

For recent accounting updates, refer to Note 2, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in our accompanying consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1, “Financial Statements.”

Our primary market risks are interest rate risk, prepayment risk, extension risk, credit risk, real estate market risk, capital market risk and foreign currency risk, either directly through the assets held or indirectly through investments in unconsolidated ventures.

Interest Rate Risk

Interest rate risk relates to the risk that the future cash flow of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. Interest rate risk is highly sensitive to many factors, including governmental, monetary and tax policies, domestic and international economic and political considerations, international conflicts, inflation and other factors beyond our control. Credit curve spread risk is highly sensitive to the dynamics of the markets for loans and securities we hold. Excessive supply of these assets combined with reduced demand will cause the market to require a higher yield. This demand for higher yield will cause the market to use a higher spread over the U.S. Treasury securities yield curve, or other benchmark interest rates, to value these assets.

As U.S. Treasury securities are priced to a higher yield and/or the spread to U.S. Treasuries used to price the assets increases, the price at which we could sell some of our fixed rate financial assets may decline. Conversely, as U.S. Treasury securities are priced to a lower yield and/or the spread to U.S. Treasuries used to price the assets decreases, the value of our fixed rate financial assets may increase. Fluctuations in SOFR may affect the amount of interest income we earn on our floating rate borrowings and interest expense we incur on borrowings indexed to SOFR, including under credit facilities and investment-level financing.

We have utilized, and in the future may utilize, a variety of financial instruments on some of our investments, including interest rate swaps, caps, floors and other interest rate exchange contracts, in order to limit the effects of fluctuations in interest rates on our operations. The use of these types of derivatives to hedge interest-earning assets and/or interest-bearing liabilities carries certain risks, including the risk that losses on a hedge position will reduce the funds available for distribution and that such losses may exceed the amount invested in such instruments. A hedge may not perform its intended purpose of offsetting losses of rising interest rates. Moreover, with respect to certain of the instruments used as hedges, there is exposure to the risk that the counterparties may cease making markets and quoting prices in such instruments, which may inhibit the ability to enter into an offsetting transaction with respect to an open position. Our profitability may be adversely affected during any period as a result of changing interest rates. At September 30, 2026, we held no derivative instruments.

As of September 30, 2026, a hypothetical 100 basis point increase or decrease in the applicable interest rate benchmark on our loan portfolio would increase interest income by $6.7 million or decrease interest income by $4.3 million annually, net of interest expense.

Refer to the “Factors Impacting Our Operating Results” section in “Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” for further discussion on interest rates.

Prepayment risk

Prepayment risk is the risk that principal will be repaid at a different rate than anticipated, resulting in a less than expected return on an investment. As prepayments of principal are received, any premiums paid on such assets are amortized against interest income, while any discounts on such assets are accreted into interest income. Therefore, an increase in prepayment rates has the following impact: (i) accelerates amortization of purchase premiums, which reduces interest income earned on the assets; and conversely, (ii) accelerates accretion of purchase discounts, which increases interest income earned on the assets.

Extension risk

The weighted average life of assets is projected based on assumptions regarding the rate at which borrowers will prepay or extend their mortgages. If prepayment rates decrease or extension options are exercised by borrowers at a rate that deviates significantly from projections, the life of fixed rate assets could extend beyond the term of the secured debt agreements. This in turn could negatively impact liquidity to the extent that assets may have to be sold and losses may be incurred as a result.

Credit risk

Investment in loans held for investment is subject to a high degree of credit risk through exposure to loss from loan defaults. Default rates are subject to a wide variety of factors, including, but not limited to, borrower financial condition, property performance, property management, supply/demand factors, construction trends, consumer behavior, regional economics, interest rates, the strength of the U.S. economy and other factors beyond our control. All loans are subject to a certain probability of default. We manage credit risk through the underwriting process, acquiring investments at the appropriate discount to face value, if any, and establishing loss assumptions. We carefully monitor performance of all loans, including those held through joint venture investments, as well as the external factors that may affect their value.

We are also subject to the credit risk of the tenants in our properties, including business closures, occupancy levels, meeting rent or other expense obligations, lease concessions, and sustainability standards and practices among other factors. We seek to undertake a rigorous credit evaluation of the tenants prior to acquiring properties. This analysis includes an extensive due diligence investigation of the tenants’ businesses, as well as an assessment of the strategic importance of the underlying real estate to the respective tenants’ core business operations. Where appropriate, we may seek to augment the tenants’ commitment to the properties by structuring various credit enhancement mechanisms into the underlying leases. These mechanisms could include security deposit requirements or guarantees from entities that are deemed credit worthy.

Our in-depth understanding of CRE and real estate-related investments, and in-house underwriting, asset management and resolution capabilities, provides us and management with a sophisticated full-service platform to regularly evaluate our investments and determine primary, secondary or alternative strategies to manage the credit risks described above. This includes intermediate servicing and complex and creative negotiating, restructuring of non-performing investments, foreclosure considerations, intense management or development of owned real estate, in each case to manage the risks faced to achieve value realization events in our interests and our stockholders. Solutions considered may include defensive loan or lease modifications, temporary interest or rent deferrals or forbearances, converting current interest payment obligations to payment-in-kind, repurposing reserves and/or covenant waivers. Depending on the nature of the underlying investment and credit risk, we may pursue repositioning strategies through judicious capital investment in order to extract value from the investment or limit losses.

There can be no assurance that the measures we take will be sufficient to address or mitigate the impact of credit risk on our future operating results, liquidity and financial condition.

Real estate market risk

We are exposed to the risks generally associated with the commercial real estate market. The market values of commercial real estate are subject to volatility and may be affected adversely by a number of factors, including, but not limited to, national, regional, and local economic conditions, as well as changes or weakness in specific industry segments, and other macroeconomic factors beyond our control which have and may continue to affect occupancy rates, capitalization rates and absorption rates. This in turn could impact the performance of tenants and borrowers. We seek to manage these risks through our underwriting due diligence and asset management processes and the solutions-oriented process described above.

Capital markets risk

We are exposed to risks related to the debt capital markets, specifically the ability to finance our business through borrowings under secured revolving repurchase facilities, secured and unsecured warehouse facilities or other debt instruments. We seek to mitigate these risks by monitoring the debt capital markets to inform our decisions on the amount, timing and terms of our borrowings.

Our Master Repurchase Facilities are partial recourse, and margin call provisions do not permit valuation adjustments based on capital markets events; rather they are limited to collateral-specific credit marks generally determined on a commercially reasonable basis. For the nine months ended September 30, 2026, and through October 27, 2026, we have not received any margin calls under our Master Repurchase Facilities.

We have amended our Bank Credit Facility and Master Repurchase Facilities to adjust certain covenants (such as the tangible net worth covenant), reduce advance rates on certain financed assets, obtain margin call holidays and permitted modification flexibilities, in an effort to mitigate the risk of future compliance issues, including margin calls, under our financing arrangements.

Foreign Currency Risk

We previously had foreign currency rate exposures related to our prior foreign currency-denominated investments held by our foreign subsidiaries. Changes in foreign currency rates could have adversely affected the fair values and earning of our non-U.S. holdings. We generally mitigated this foreign currency risk by utilizing currency instruments to hedge our prior net investments in our foreign subsidiaries. The type of hedging instruments that we employed on our foreign subsidiary investments were put options.

We had no foreign exchange contracts in place at September 30, 2026. The maturity dates of the prior instruments approximated the projected dates of related cash flows for specific investments. Termination or maturity of currency hedging instruments may have resulted in an obligation for payment to or from the counterparty to the hedging agreement. We were exposed to credit loss in the event of non-performance by counterparties for these contracts. To manage this risk, we selected major international banks and financial institutions as counterparties and performed a quarterly review of the financial health and stability of our trading counterparties. No counterparty defaulted on its obligations when we held foreign exchange contracts.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

As required by Rule 13a-15(b) under the Exchange Act, our management carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that as of September 30, 2026, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at providing reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of the information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the most recent fiscal quarter that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

An investment in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the risks included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 before deciding to purchase shares of our common stock. If any of the events, contingencies, circumstances or conditions described in the risks therein actually occurs, they could have a material adverse effect in our business, results of operations and financial conditions or cause our stock price to decline.
