Overview

We are a commercial real estate finance company externally managed by TPG RE Finance Trust Management, L.P., an affiliate of our sponsor TPG. We directly originate, acquire and manage commercial mortgage loans and other commercial real estate-related debt instruments in North America for our balance sheet. Our objective is to provide attractive risk-adjusted returns to our stockholders over time through cash distributions and capital appreciation. To meet our objective, we focus primarily on directly originating and selectively acquiring floating rate first mortgage loans that are secured by high quality commercial real estate properties undergoing some form of transition and value creation, such as retenanting, refurbishment or other form of repositioning. The collateral underlying our loans is located in primary and select secondary markets in the U.S. that we believe have attractive economic conditions and commercial real estate fundamentals. We operate our business as one segment.

We made an election to be taxed as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes, commencing with our initial taxable year ended December 31, 2014. We believe we have been organized and have operated in conformity with the requirements for qualification and taxation as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code and we believe that our organization and current and intended manner of operation will enable us to continue to meet the requirements for qualification and taxation as a REIT. As a REIT, we generally are not subject to U.S. federal income tax on our REIT taxable income that we distribute currently to our stockholders. We operate our business in a manner that permits us to maintain an exclusion or exemption from registration under the Investment Company Act.

We continue to evaluate the effects of macroeconomic concerns, including, without limitation, a period of sustained high interest rates, inflation, stress to the commercial banking systems of the U.S. and Western Europe, geopolitical tensions, concerns of an economic recession in the near term, and changes to the way commercial tenants use real estate. Rising interest rates, stress to the commercial banking systems of the U.S. and Western Europe, increased volatility in debt and equity markets, declining commercial property values, and elevated geopolitical risk led us to continue to curtail our loan origination volume and maintain high levels of liquidity during 2023. From January 1, 2023 through December 31, 2023, we originated four first mortgage transitional loans, with total commitments of $229.4 million, an initial unpaid principal balance of $196.7 million, and unfunded commitments at closing of $32.7 million.

For more information regarding the impact that current macroeconomic concerns have had and may have on our business, see the risk factors set forth in this Form 10-K.

Our Manager

We are externally managed by our Manager, TPG RE Finance Trust Management, L.P., an affiliate of TPG.

Investment Portfolio Financing Activity and Liquidity:

•Utilized the reinvestment feature in TRTX 2021-FL4 16 times, recycling loan repayments of $384.4 million and in TRTX 2022-FL5 three times, recycling loan repayments of $80.1 million.

•Available near-term liquidity as of December 31, 2023 of $480.0 million was comprised of:

•$206.4 million of cash-on-hand, of which $191.4 million was available for investment, net of $15.0 million held to satisfy liquidity covenants under our secured financing agreements.

•$247.2 million of cash in our CRE CLOs available for investment in eligible collateral.

•Undrawn capacity (liquidity available to us without the need to pledge additional collateral to our lenders) of $24.8 million under secured credit agreements with five lenders, and $1.6 million under asset-specific financing arrangements.

We have financed our loan investments as of December 31, 2023 utilizing three CRE CLOs totaling $1.9 billion, one of which is open for reinvestment of eligible loan collateral at quarter end, $0.8 billion under secured credit agreements with total commitments of $2.2 billion provided by five lenders, $274.2 million under asset-specific financing arrangements, and $23.8 million under our $290.0 million secured revolving credit facility. As of December 31, 2023, 63.6% of our borrowings were pursuant to our CRE CLO vehicles, 27.3% were pursuant to our secured credit agreements and secured revolving credit facility and 9.1% were pursuant to our asset-specific financing arrangements. Non-mark-to-market financing comprised 73.5% of total loan portfolio borrowings as of December 31, 2023.

Our ability to draw on our secured credit agreements and secured revolving credit facility is dependent upon our lenders’ willingness to accept as collateral loan investments we pledge to them to secure additional borrowings. These financing arrangements have credit spreads based upon the LTV and other risk characteristics of collateral pledged, and provide financing with mark-to-market provisions limited to collateral-specific events (i.e., "credit" marks). Borrowings under our secured revolving credit agreement are permitted with respect to collateral that satisfies pre-determined eligibility standards, and have a pre-determined advance rate (generally, 75% of the unpaid principal balance pledged) and credit spread (Term SOFR plus 2.00%). As of December 31, 2023, borrowings under these secured credit agreements and secured revolving credit facility had a weighted average credit spread of 2.00% (2.00% for arrangements with mark-to-market provisions and 2.00% for one arrangement with no mark-to-market provisions), and a weighted average term to extended maturity assuming exercise of all extension options and term-out provisions of 1.3 years. These financing arrangements are generally 25% recourse to Holdco, with the exception of the secured revolving credit facility that is 100% recourse to Holdco.

Key Financial Measures and Indicators

As a commercial real estate finance company, we believe the key financial measures and indicators for our business are earnings per share, dividends declared per common share, Distributable Earnings, and book value per common share. As further described below, Distributable Earnings is a measure that is not prepared in accordance with GAAP. We use Distributable Earnings to evaluate our performance excluding the effects of certain transactions and GAAP adjustments that we believe are not necessarily indicative of our current investment activity and operations.

For the three months ended December 31, 2023, we recorded net income attributable to common stockholders of $0.03 per diluted common share, an increase of $0.86 per diluted common share from the three months ended September 30, 2023, of which $0.75 per diluted common share relates to a decrease in our credit loss expense during the fourth quarter of 2023, which totaled $17.3 million as compared to $75.8 million during the third quarter of 2023.

Distributable Earnings (loss) per diluted common share was ($2.05) for three months ended December 31, 2023, a decrease of $0.72 per diluted common share from the three months ended September 30, 2023. The decrease in Distributable Earnings (loss) per diluted common share was primarily due to an increase in realized losses on loan sales and REO conversions of $0.86 per diluted common share during the fourth quarter of 2023, partially offset by $0.09 per diluted common share attributable to gain on sale of real estate owned, net during the fourth quarter of 2023.

For the three months ended December 31, 2023, we declared a cash dividend of $0.24 per common share which was paid on January 25, 2024.

Our book value per common share as of December 31, 2023 was $11.86, a decrease of $2.62 per common share from our book value per common share as of December 31, 2022 of $14.48, primarily due to an increase in credit loss expense during the year ended December 31, 2023 of $189.9 million, or $2.44 per common share.

The following table sets forth the calculation of basic and diluted net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders per share and dividends declared per share (dollars in thousands, except share and per share data):

____________________________

(1)Includes preferred stock dividends declared and paid for Series A Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock shares outstanding for the three months ended December 31, 2023 and September 30, 2023 and the year ended December 31, 2023 and 2022.

(2)Basic and diluted earnings (loss) per common share are computed independently based on the weighted-average shares of common stock outstanding. Diluted earnings per common share also includes the impact of participating securities outstanding plus any incremental shares that would be outstanding assuming the exercise of the Warrants.

Distributable Earnings

Distributable Earnings is a non-GAAP measure, which we define as GAAP net income (loss) attributable to our common stockholders, including realized gains and losses from loan write-offs, loan sales and other loan resolutions (including conversions to REO), regardless of whether such items are included in other comprehensive income or loss, or in GAAP net income (loss), and excluding (i) non-cash stock compensation expense, (ii) depreciation and amortization expense, (iii) unrealized gains (losses) (including credit loss expense (benefit), net), and (iv) certain non-cash or income and expense items. The exclusion of depreciation and amortization expense from the calculation of Distributable Earnings only applies to debt investments related to real estate to the extent we foreclose upon the property or properties underlying such debt investments.

70

Table of Contents

We believe that Distributable Earnings provides meaningful information to consider in addition to our net income (loss) and cash flow from operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP. We generally must distribute at least 90% of our net taxable income annually, subject to certain adjustments and excluding any net capital gains, for us to continue to qualify as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes. We believe that one of the primary reasons investors purchase our common stock is to receive our dividends. Because of our investors’ continued focus on our ability to pay dividends, Distributable Earnings is an important measure for us to consider when determining our distribution policy and dividends per common share. Further, Distributable Earnings helps us to evaluate our performance excluding the effects of certain transactions and GAAP adjustments that we believe are not necessarily indicative of our current loan investment and operating activities.

Distributable Earnings excludes the impact of our credit loss provision or reversals of our credit loss provision, but only to the extent that our credit loss provision exceeds any realized credit losses during the applicable reporting period.

A loan will be written off as a realized loss when it is deemed non-recoverable or upon a realization event. Such a realized loss would generally be recognized at the time the loan receivable is settled, transferred or exchanged, or in the case of foreclosure, when the underlying property is foreclosed upon or sold. Non-recoverability may also be concluded by us if, in our determination, it is nearly certain that all amounts due will not be collected. A realized loss may equal the difference between the cash or consideration received or expected to be received, and the net book value of the loan, reflecting our economics as it relates to the ultimate realization of the asset.

Distributable Earnings does not represent net income (loss) or cash generated from operating activities and should not be considered as an alternative to GAAP net income (loss), an indication of our GAAP cash flows from operations, a measure of our liquidity, or an indication of funds available for our cash needs. In addition, our methodology for calculating Distributable Earnings may differ from the methodologies employed by other companies to calculate the same or similar supplemental performance measures, and accordingly, our reported Distributable Earnings may not be comparable to the Distributable Earnings reported by other companies.

The following table provides a reconciliation of GAAP net income attributable to common stockholders to Distributable Earnings (dollars in thousands, except share and per share data):

As of December 31, 2023, 100% of the loan commitments in our portfolio consisted of floating rate loans, of which 100.0% were first mortgage loans or, in one instance, a first mortgage loan and contiguous mezzanine loan both owned by us. As of December 31, 2023, we had $183.3 million of unfunded loan commitments, our funding of which is subject to borrower satisfaction of certain milestones.

We may hold REO as a result of taking title to a loan's collateral. As of December 31, 2023, we owned four office properties and one multifamily property with an aggregate carrying value of $199.8 million.

During the three months ended December 31, 2023, we funded $34.6 million of deferred future fundings related to previously originated loans. We received proceeds from one loan repayment in-full of $70.0 million, and principal amortization of $30.2 million across three loans, for total loan repayments of $100.2 million during the period. We received cost-recovery proceeds from three non-accrual loans of $2.9 million. Additionally, we sold two mortgage loans with an aggregate unpaid principal balance of $212.0 million for $127.7 million, resulting in a loss on sale of $78.2 million, including transaction costs of $2.8 million.

The following table details overall statistics for our loans held for investment portfolio as of December 31, 2023 (dollars in thousands):

_________________________________

(1)In certain instances, we create structural leverage through the co-origination or non-recourse syndication of a senior loan interest to a third-party. In either case, the senior mortgage loan (i.e., the non-consolidated senior interest) is not included on our balance sheet. When we create structural leverage through the co-origination or non-recourse syndication of a senior loan interest to a third-party, we retain on our balance sheet a mezzanine loan. Total loan exposure encompasses the entire loan portfolio we originated, acquired and financed. We did not have any non-consolidated senior interests as of December 31, 2023.

(2)Unpaid principal balance includes PIK interest of $1.2 million as of December 31, 2023.

(3)Unfunded loan commitments may be funded over the term of each loan, subject in certain cases to an expiration date or a force-funding date, primarily to finance property improvements or lease-related expenditures by our borrowers and to finance operating deficits during renovation and lease-up.

(4)As of December 31, 2023, all of our loans were indexed to Term SOFR. In addition to credit spread, all-in yield includes the amortization of deferred origination fees, purchase price premium and discount, and accrual of both extension and exit fees. All-in yield for the total portfolio assumes Term SOFR as of December 31, 2023 for weighted average calculations.

(5)Extended maturity assumes all extension options are exercised by the borrower; provided, however, that our loans may be repaid prior to such date. As of December 31, 2023, based on the unpaid principal balance of our total loan exposure, 8.4% of our loans were subject to yield maintenance or other prepayment restrictions and 91.6% were open to repayment without penalty.

(6)Except for construction loans, LTV is calculated for loan originations and existing loans as the total outstanding principal balance of the loan or participation interest in a loan (plus any financing that is pari passu with or senior to such loan or participation interest) as of December 31, 2023, divided by the as-is appraised value of our collateral at the time of origination or acquisition of such loan or participation interest. For construction loans only, LTV is calculated as the total commitment amount of the loan divided by the as-stabilized value of the real estate securing the loan. The as-is or as-stabilized (as applicable) value reflects our Manager’s estimates, at the time of origination or acquisition of the loan or participation interest in a loan, of the real estate value underlying such loan or participation interest determined in accordance with our Manager’s underwriting standards and consistent with third-party appraisals obtained by our Manager.

The following table details the interest rate floors for our loans held for investment portfolio as of December 31, 2023 (dollars in thousands):

During the three months ended December 31, 2023, as part of our quarterly risk rating process, we assigned an initial risk rating of "3" to a newly-originated multifamily loan. We downgraded one multifamily loan and one mixed-use loan from "2" to "3" due to decreases in occupancy at each of the underlying properties, and we downgraded one multifamily loan from "3" to "4" due to a decrease in operating performance. We received repayment in full of one loan with a unpaid principal balance of $70.0 million and a risk rating of "3" as of September 30, 2023. We converted to REO three office loans, each with a risk rating of "5" and one multifamily loan with a risk rating of "4".

We upgraded one hotel loan from risk category "4" to "3" due to continued improvement in property-level operating performance. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, we received repayment in full of three loans with a total unpaid principal balance of $144.4 million and a weighted average risk rating of 3.1 as of December 31, 2022.

The two new loan investments made during the three months ended March 31, 2023 were assigned an initial risk rating of "3".

Loan Modification Activity

Loan modifications and amendments are commonplace in the transitional lending business. We may amend or modify a loan depending on the loan’s specific facts and circumstances. These loan modifications typically include additional time for the borrower to refinance or sell the collateral property, adjustment or waiver of performance tests that are prerequisite to the extension of a loan maturity, modification of terms of interest rate cap agreements, and/or deferral of scheduled principal payments. In exchange for a modification, we often receive a partial repayment of principal, a short-term accrual of PIK interest for a portion of interest due, a cash infusion to replenish interest or capital improvement reserves, termination of all or a portion of the remaining unfunded loan commitment, additional call protection, and/or an increase in the loan coupon or additional loan fees. We continue to work with our borrowers to address issues as they arise while seeking to preserve the credit attributes of our loans. However, we cannot assure you that these efforts will be successful, and we may experience payment delinquencies, defaults, foreclosures, or losses.

Allowance for Credit Losses

Our allowance for credit losses is influenced by the size and weighted average maturity date of our loans, loan quality, risk rating, delinquency status, loan-to-value ratio, historical loss experience and other conditions influencing loss expectations, such as reasonable and supportable forecasts of economic conditions. During the year ended December 31, 2023, we recorded a decrease of $144.8 million in our allowance for credit losses resulting in an aggregate CECL reserve of $69.8 million at year-end. The decrease in our allowance for credit losses was primarily attributable to loan resolutions during the year, including loan sales and REO conversions. This decrease was partially offset by an increase in the general reserve which includes macroeconomic assumptions that reflect ongoing concerns about growing geopolitical tensions, the potential impact of market volatility, the possibility of an economic recession, limited liquidity in the capital markets, distress in the banking sector and a slowdown in investment sales, and loan specific property-level performance trends such as shifting office market fundamentals and inflationary pressures that may cause operating margins to narrow.

While the ultimate impact of the macroeconomic outlook and property performance trends remain uncertain, we selected our macroeconomic outlook to address this uncertainty, and made specific forward-looking adjustments to the inputs of our loan-level calculations to reflect collateral operating performance, credit structure features of loan documents, variability in an economic climate marked by sustained higher interest rates, and other impacts to the broader economy.

The following table presents the allowance for credit losses for loans held for investment (dollars in thousands):

Investment Portfolio Financing

We finance our investment portfolio using secured financing agreements, including secured credit agreements, secured revolving credit facilities, mortgage loans payable, asset-specific financing arrangements, and collateralized loan obligations. In certain instances, we may create structural leverage and obtain matched-term financing through the co-origination or non-recourse syndication of a senior loan interest to a third party (a “non-consolidated senior interest”). We generally seek to match-fund and match-index our investments by minimizing the differences between the durations and indices of our investments and those of our liabilities, while minimizing our exposure to mark-to-market risk.

The following table details our investment portfolio financing arrangements (dollars in thousands):

All of our investment portfolio financing arrangements are floating rate indexed to Term SOFR except a single fixed-rate mortgage loan secured by an REO property in Houston, TX.

Table of Contents

As of December 31, 2023, non-mark-to-market financing sources accounted for 73.5% of our total loan portfolio borrowings. The remaining 26.5% of our loan portfolio borrowings, comprised primarily of our five secured credit agreements, are subject to credit marks only. As of December 31, 2023, we did not have any non-consolidated senior interests.

Secured Credit Agreements

As of December 31, 2023, aggregate borrowings outstanding under our secured credit agreements totaled $0.8 billion. As of December 31, 2023, the overall weighted average interest rate was the benchmark interest rate plus 2.00% per annum and the overall weighted average advance rate was 77.7%. As of December 31, 2023, outstanding borrowings under these arrangements had a weighted average term to extended maturity of 1.3 years assuming the exercise of all extension options and term out provisions. These secured credit agreements are generally 25.0% recourse to Holdco.

The following table details our secured credit agreements as of December 31, 2023 (dollars in thousands):

________________________________

(1)Commitment amount represents the maximum amount of borrowings available under a given agreement once sufficient collateral assets have been approved by the lender and pledged by us.

(2)Undrawn capacity represents the positive difference between the borrowing amount approved by the lender against collateral assets pledged by us and the amount actually drawn against those collateral assets. The funding of such amounts is generally subject to the sole and absolute discretion of each lender.

(3)Represents the commitment amount less the approved borrowings, which amount is available to be borrowed provided we pledge, and the lender approves, additional collateral assets.

(4)Each secured credit agreement interest rate is subject to Term SOFR as its benchmark interest rate. The credit spread for each arrangement is added to Term SOFR to calculate the interest rate charged for each borrowing.

(5)Our ability to extend our secured credit agreements to the dates shown above is subject to satisfaction of certain conditions. Even if extended, our lenders retain sole discretion to determine whether to accept pledged collateral, and the advance rate and credit spread applicable to each borrowing thereunder.

(6)On January 31, 2024, we executed a two-year extension of the secured credit agreement through August 19, 2026. During the two-year extension period, new and revolving borrowings are permitted, after which the secured credit agreement automatically enters a two-year term-out period through August 19, 2028.

Once we identify an asset and the asset is approved by the secured credit agreement lender to serve as collateral (which lender’s approval is in its sole discretion), we and the lender may enter into a transaction whereby the lender advances to us a percentage of the value of the loan asset, which is referred to as the “advance rate.” In the case of borrowings under our secured credit agreements that are repurchase arrangements, this advance serves as the purchase price at which the lender acquires the loan asset from us with an obligation of ours to repurchase the asset from the lender for an amount equal to the purchase price for the transaction plus a price differential, which is calculated based on an interest rate. Advance rates are subject to negotiation between us and our secured credit agreement lenders.

For each transaction, we and the lender agree to a trade confirmation which sets forth, among other things, the asset purchase price, the maximum advance rate, the interest rate and the market value of the asset. For transactions under our secured credit agreements, the trade confirmation may also set forth any future funding obligations which are contemplated with respect to the specific transaction and/or the underlying loan asset and loan-specific margin maintenance provisions, described below.

Generally, our secured credit agreements allow for revolving balances, which allow us to voluntarily repay balances and draw again on existing available credit. The primary obligor on each secured credit agreement is a separate special purpose subsidiary of ours which is restricted from conducting activity other than activity related to the utilization of its secured credit agreement and the loans or loan interests that are originated or acquired by such subsidiary. As additional credit support, our holding company subsidiary, Holdco, provides certain guarantees of the obligations of its subsidiaries. Holdco’s liability is generally capped at 25% of the outstanding obligations of the special purpose subsidiary which is the primary obligor under the related agreement. However, this liability cap does not apply in the event of certain “bad boy” defaults which can trigger recourse to Holdco for losses or the entire outstanding obligations of the borrower depending on the nature of the “bad boy” default in question. Examples of such “bad boy” defaults include, without limitation, fraud, intentional misrepresentation, willful misconduct, incurrence of additional debt in violation of financing documents, and the filing of a voluntary or collusive involuntary bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding of the special purpose entity subsidiary or the guarantor entity.

Table of Contents

Each of the recourse secured credit agreements have “margin maintenance” provisions, which are designed to allow the lender to maintain a certain margin of credit enhancement against the assets which serve as collateral. The lender’s margin amount is typically based on a percentage of the market value of the asset and/or mortgaged property collateral; however, certain secured credit agreements may also involve margin maintenance based on maintenance of a minimum debt yield with respect to the cash flow from the underlying real estate collateral. In certain cases, margin maintenance provisions can relate to minimum debt yields for pledged collateral considered as a whole, or limits on concentration of loan exposure measured by property type or loan type.

Our secured credit agreements contain defined mark-to-market provisions that permit the lenders to issue margin calls to us in the event that the collateral properties underlying our loans pledged to our lenders experience a non-temporary decline in value or net cash flow (“credit marks”). In the event that we experience market turbulence, we may be exposed to margin calls in connection with our secured credit agreements.

The maturity dates for each of our secured credit agreements are set forth in tables that appear earlier in this section. Our secured credit agreements generally have terms of between one and three years, but may be extended if we satisfy certain performance-based conditions. In the normal course of business, we maintain discussions with our lenders to extend, amend or otherwise optimize any financing agreements related to our loans.

As of December 31, 2023, the weighted average haircut (which is equal to one minus the advance rate percentage against collateral for our secured credit agreements taken as a whole) was 22.3% compared to 21.9% as of December 31, 2022.

The secured credit agreements also include cash management features which generally require that income from collateral loan assets be deposited in a lender-controlled account for distribution in accordance with a specified waterfall of payments designed to keep facility-related obligations current before such income is disbursed for our own account. The cash management features generally require the trapping of cash in such controlled account if an uncured default under our borrowing arrangement remains outstanding. Furthermore, some secured credit agreements may require an accelerated principal amortization schedule if the secured credit agreement is in its final extended term.

Notwithstanding that a loan asset may be subject to a financing arrangement and serve as collateral under a secured credit agreement, we retain the right to administer and service the loan and interact directly with the underlying obligors and sponsors of our loan assets so long as there is no default under the secured credit agreement, and so long as we do not engage in certain material modifications (including amendments, waivers, exercises of remedies, or releases of obligors and collateral, among other things) of the loan assets without the lender’s prior consent.

Secured Revolving Credit Facility

On February 22, 2022, we closed a $250.0 million, secured revolving credit facility with a syndicate of 5 banks to provide interim funding of up to 180 days for newly-originated and existing loans. During the fourth quarter of 2022, an additional lender was added to the facility, increasing the borrowing capacity to $290.0 million. This facility has an initial term of three years, an interest rate of Term SOFR plus 2.00% that is payable monthly in arrears, and an unused fee of 15 or 20 basis points, depending upon whether utilization exceeds 50.0%. During the year ended December 31, 2023, the weighted average unused fee was 20 basis points. This facility is 100% recourse to Holdco. As of December 31, 2023, we pledged one loan investment with a collateral principal balance of $32.8 million and had outstanding Term SOFR-based borrowings of $23.8 million.

Asset-Specific Financing Arrangements

As of December 31, 2023, we had four separate asset-specific financing arrangements with four third-party lenders. On December 5, 2023, we closed a $90.6 million loan financing facility (the "HSBC Facility"). The HSBC Facility provides asset-specific financing on a non-mark-to-market basis with matched term. This facility is 20% recourse to Holdco. On November 17, 2022, we closed a $23.3 million asset-specific financing arrangement with Customers Bank. The arrangement provides non-mark-to-market matched term, non-recourse financing. On September 1, 2022, we closed a $397.9 million asset-specific financing arrangement with an Institutional Lender ("Institutional Lender 2"). The arrangement provides non-mark-to-market matched term, non-recourse financing. On June 30, 2022, we closed a $200.0 million loan financing facility (the "BMO Facility"). The BMO Facility provides asset-specific financing on a non-mark-to-market basis with matched term. This facility is 25% recourse to Holdco.

The following table details our asset-specific financing arrangements (dollars in thousands):

Collateralized Loan Obligations

As of December 31, 2023, we had three collateralized loan obligations, TRTX 2022-FL5, TRTX 2021-FL4, and TRTX 2019-FL3, totaling $1.9 billion, financing $2.5 billion, or 71.5%, of our loans held for investment portfolio, and holding $247.2 million of cash for investment in eligible loan collateral. As of December 31, 2023, our CRE CLOs provide low cost, non-mark-to-market, non-recourse financing for 63.6% of our loan portfolio borrowings. The collateralized loan obligations bear a weighted average interest rate of Term SOFR plus 1.95%, have a weighted average advance rate of 79.3%, and include a reinvestment feature that allows us to contribute existing or new loan investments in exchange for proceeds from loan repayments held by the CRE CLOs.

The following table details the loan collateral and borrowings under our CRE CLOs (dollars in thousands):

________________________________

(1)Includes loan amounts held in our CRE CLO investment structures and does not include other loans held for investment, net of $3.9 million held within the Sub-REIT structure.

(2)Weighted average spread excludes the amortization of loan fees and deferred financing costs.

(3)Loan term represents weighted-average final maturity, assuming extension options are exercised by the borrower. Repayments of CRE CLO notes are dependent on timing of underlying loan repayments post-reinvestment period. The term of the CRE CLO notes represents the rated final distribution date.

(4)On October 1, 2021, the benchmark index interest rate for borrowings under TRTX 2019-FL3 was converted from Compounded SOFR to Term SOFR by the designated transaction representative under the FL3 indenture. We exercised our right to convert the mortgage assets' benchmark interest rate from LIBOR to Term SOFR to eliminate the difference between benchmark rates used for the assets and liabilities of the CRE CLO. As of December 31, 2023, the TRTX 2019-FL3 mortgage assets are indexed to Term SOFR.

(5)On May 15, 2023, the benchmark index interest rate for borrowings under TRTX 2021-FL4 was converted from LIBOR to Term SOFR by the designated transaction representative under the FL4 indenture. We exercised our right to convert the mortgage assets' benchmark interest rate from LIBOR to Term SOFR to eliminate the difference between benchmark rates used for the assets and liabilities of the CRE CLO.

(6)We had the ability to convert the interest rate benchmark from Compounded SOFR to Term SOFR once 50% of the underlying mortgage loans were converted to Term SOFR. On September 12, 2023, the benchmark interest rate for borrowings under TRTX 2022-FL5 was converted from Compounded SOFR to Term SOFR. As of December 31, 2023, all of the TRTX 2022-FL5 mortgage assets are indexed to Term SOFR.

(7)Collateral loan investment assets of FL3, FL4 and FL5 represent 9.9%, 30.7% and 30.9% of the aggregate unpaid principal balance of our loans held for investment portfolio as of December 31, 2023.

(8)During the three months ended December 31, 2023, we recognized interest expense of $38.2 million, which includes $1.5 million of deferred financing cost amortization. During the year ended December 31, 2023, we recognized interest expense of $153.3 million, which includes $5.0 million of deferred financing cost amortization.

During the year ended December 31, 2023, we utilized our eligible reinvestment feature related to TRTX 2021-FL4 sixteen times, recycling repayment of loan principal received of $384.4 million. During the year ended December 31, 2023, we utilized our eligible reinvestment feature related to TRTX 2022-FL5 three times, recycling $80.1 million of principal repayments received. The reinvestment period for TRTX 2019-FL3 ended on October 11, 2021. The reinvestment period for TRTX 2021-FL4 ended on March 11, 2023. In accordance with the TRTX 2021-FL4 indenture, prior to the end of the reinvestment period on March 11, 2023, we committed to contribute certain assets and completed the contribution process by mid-May 2023.

See Note 5 to our Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Form 10-K for details about our CRE CLO reinvestment feature.

Mortgage Loan Payable

Through a wholly-owned, special purpose subsidiary, we are the borrower under a $31.2 million mortgage loan secured by a deed of trust against an REO asset. The first mortgage loan was provided by an institutional lender, has an interest-only five year term and bears interest at a rate of 7.7%. As of December 31, 2023, the carrying value of the loan was $30.6 million.

Non-Consolidated Senior Interests and Retained Mezzanine Loans

In certain instances, we create structural leverage through the co-origination or non-recourse syndication of a senior loan interest to a third party. In either case, the senior mortgage loan (i.e., the non-consolidated senior interest) is not included on our balance sheet. When we create structural leverage through the co-origination or non-recourse syndication of a senior loan interest to a third party, we retain on our balance sheet a mezzanine loan.

As of December 31, 2023, there are no non-consolidated senior interests or retained mezzanine loans outstanding.

Financial Covenants for Outstanding Borrowings

For a description of our financial covenants and guarantees for outstanding borrowings related to our secured financing agreements, see Note 6 to our Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Form 10-K.

We were in compliance with all financial covenants for our secured credit agreements and secured revolving credit facility to the extent of outstanding balances as of December 31, 2023. Effective September 30, 2023, we obtained from our lenders a waiver with respect to the minimum interest coverage ratio covenant. This waiver reduced the minimum interest coverage ratio to 1.30 to 1.0 from 1.40 to 1.0 for the quarters ended September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2023. The interest coverage ratio threshold will revert to 1.40 to 1.0 for the quarter ending March 31, 2024 and thereafter. We were in compliance with all financial covenants for our secured credit agreements and secured revolving credit facility to the extent of outstanding balances as of December 31, 2022.

If we fail to satisfy any of the covenants in our financing arrangements and are unable to obtain a waiver or other suitable relief from the lenders, we would be in default under these agreements, which could result in a cross-default or cross-acceleration under other financing arrangements, and our lenders could elect to declare outstanding amounts due and payable (or such amounts may automatically become due and payable), terminate their commitments, require the posting of additional collateral and enforce their respective interests against existing collateral. A default also could significantly limit our financing alternatives, which could cause us to curtail our investment activities or dispose of assets when we otherwise would not choose to do so. Further, this could make it difficult for us to satisfy the requirements necessary to maintain our qualification as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

Floating Rate Portfolio

Our business model seeks to minimize our exposure to changing interest rates by match-indexing our assets using the same, or similar, benchmark indices. Accordingly, rising interest rates will generally increase our net interest income, while declining interest rates will generally decrease our net interest income, subject to the impact of interest rate floors in our mortgage loan investment portfolio. As of December 31, 2023, 100.0% of our loan investments by unpaid principal balance earned a floating rate of interest and were financed with liabilities that require interest payments based on floating rates, which resulted in $0.5 billion of net floating rate exposure, subject to the impact of interest rate floors on all our floating rate loans and less than 1.2% of our liabilities. Subject to the specific footnote disclosures in the preceding tables describing our revolving credit facilities, secured financing arrangements, asset-specific financing arrangements and CRE CLOs, and the table that follows, our liabilities are generally index-matched to each loan investment asset, resulting in a net exposure to movements in floating benchmark interest rates that varies based on the relative proportion of floating rate assets and liabilities.

The following table details the net floating rate exposure of our loan portfolio by unpaid principal balance as of December 31, 2023 (dollars in thousands):

__________________________________

(1)As of December 31, 2023, all of our floating rate mortgage loan assets and all of our outstanding floating rate mortgage loan liabilities were subject to Term SOFR as the benchmark interest rate.

Net Interest Income

Net interest income increased by $1.7 million to $21.3 million during the three months ended December 31, 2023 compared to $19.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The increase was primarily due to repayments on our secured financing arrangements during the fourth quarter related to full loan repayments, loan sales and REO conversions.

87

Table of Contents

Other Revenue

Other revenue increased $2.8 million for the three months ended December 31, 2023 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2023 primarily due to revenue earned in connection with the sale of an in-the-money rate cap that was collaterally-assigned to us as part of a multifamily loan that was converted to REO and later sold, and an increase in interest rates earned on higher cash balances during the period.

Other Expenses

Other expenses increased $2.4 million for the three months ended December 31, 2023 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2023, primarily due to an increase in stock compensation expense and professional fees offset by a decrease in management fee expense.

Gain on Sale of Real Estate Owned, net

During the three months ended December 31, 2023, we sold a multifamily REO property for net cash proceeds of $75.4 million and recognized a gain on sale of real estate owned, net of $7.0 million. We did not sell any real estate owned during the three months ended September 30, 2023.

Credit Loss Expense

Credit loss expense decreased by $58.6 million for the three months ended December 31, 2023 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2023. The decrease to our credit loss expense was primarily due to the realized losses on loan sales and REO conversions of $184.1 million during the period as compared to $117.5 million during the prior quarter, which includes the reversal of previously recorded credit loss expense. This decrease was partially offset by an increase in our allowance for credit losses due to weakening credit indicators, rising interest rates, and an uncertain macroeconomic outlook. See Notes 3 and 15 to our Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Form 10-K for additional details regarding our allowance for credit losses, risk ratings, and property type concentration risk.

Preferred Stock Dividends and Participating Securities Share in Earnings

During each of the three month periods ended December 31, 2023 and September 30, 2023, we declared and paid a cash dividend of $3.1 million related to our Series C Preferred Stock.

Dividends Declared Per Common Share

During the three months ended December 31, 2023, we declared cash dividends of $0.24 per common share, or $19.2 million. During the three months ended September 30, 2023, we declared cash dividends of $0.24 per common share, or $18.9 million.

Net Interest Income

Net interest income decreased $53.4 million to $88.7 million during the year ended December 31, 2023 compared to $142.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. The decrease was primarily due to an increase in the number of loans placed on non-accrual, including those on cost-recovery, which totaled ten throughout the year ended December 31, 2023 compared to none during the comparable period. Our weighted average interest rate floors increased from 0.85% as of December 31, 2022 to 1.09% as of December 31, 2023.

Other Revenue

Other revenue increased $24.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2023 compared to the year ended December 31, 2022 primarily due to an increase in interest rates earned on our cash balances as well as revenue earned from real estate owned operations from an office property acquired through a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure during the second quarter of 2023.

Other Expenses

Other expenses increased $5.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2023 compared to the year ended December 31, 2022, primarily due to an increase in expenses from real estate owned operations of $7.5 million from an office property acquired through a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure during the second quarter of 2023 and an increase in stock compensation of $3.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022. This increase was partially offset by a decrease in incentive management fee expense of $5.2 million earned during the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to no incentive management fee expense for the same period in 2023.

Gain on Sale of Real Estate Owned, net

During the year ended December 31, 2023, we sold a multifamily REO property for net cash proceeds of $75.4 million and recognized a gain on sale of real estate owned, net of $7.0 million. During the year ended December 31, 2022, we sold a 10-acre parcel of REO property for net cash proceeds of $73.9 million and recognized a gain on sale of real estate owned, net of $13.3 million.

Credit Loss Expense

Credit loss expense increased by $16.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2023 compared to the year ended December 31, 2022, primarily due to a $189.9 million increase to our allowance for credit losses during the year ended December 31, 2023 compared to a $173.0 million increase recognized during the comparable period. The credit loss expense increase during the year ended December 31, 2023, was primarily due to an increase of $79.6 million related to realized losses on loan resolutions, partially offset by a decline in the general CECL reserve of $62.6 million resulting from changes in macroeconomic conditions and investment activity during the current year. See Note 3 to our Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Form 10-K for additional details regarding our allowance for credit losses and risk ratings.

Preferred Stock Dividends and Participating Securities Share in Earnings

During each of the year ended periods ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, we declared and paid cash dividends of $12.6 million related to our Series C Preferred Stock.

Dividends Declared Per Common Share

During the year ended December 31, 2023, we declared cash dividends of $0.96 per common share, or $76.0 million. During the year ended December 31, 2022, we declared cash dividends of $0.96 per common share, or $75.1 million.

Our existing loan portfolio may provide us with liquidity as loans are repaid or sold, in whole or in part, of which some proceeds may be included in accounts receivable from our servicers until released and the proceeds from such repayments become available for us to reinvest. For the year ended December 31, 2023, loan repayments (including $0.5 million of accrued PIK interest) totaled $891.1 million, and loan sales totaled $247.6 million. We held unencumbered loan investments with an aggregate unpaid principal balance of $97.8 million that are eligible to pledge under our existing financing arrangements. Additionally, proceeds from the sale of REO properties may provide us with liquidity. For the year ended December 31, 2023, proceeds from the sale of REO totaled $75.4 million.

Uses of Liquidity

In addition to our ongoing loan activity, our primary liquidity needs include interest and principal payments under our $3.0 billion of outstanding borrowings under secured credit agreements, a secured revolving credit facility, asset-specific financing arrangements, and collateralized loan obligations, the repurchase or deleveraging of loans, $183.3 million of unfunded loan commitments on our loans held for investment, dividend distributions to our preferred and common stockholders, and operating expenses.

Material Cash Requirements

Contractual Obligations and Commitments

Our contractual obligations and commitments as of December 31, 2023 were as follows (dollars in thousands):

________________________________________

(1)The allocation of our unfunded loan commitments for our loans held for investment portfolio is based on the earlier of the commitment expiration date and the loan maturity date.

(2)Collateralized loan obligation liabilities are based on the fully extended maturity of mortgage loan collateral, considering the reinvestment window of our collateralized loan obligation.

(3)The allocation of secured credit agreements and secured revolving credit facility is based on the extended maturity date for those secured financing agreements where extensions are at our option, subject to no default, or the current maturity date of those facilities where extension options are subject to counterparty approval.

(4)The allocation of asset-specific financing arrangements are based on the fully extended maturity date of the underlying mortgage loan collateral.

(5)Amounts include the related future interest payment obligations, which are estimated by assuming the amounts outstanding under our secured debt agreements, asset-specific financing arrangements and collateralized loan obligations and the interest rates in effect as of December 31, 2023 will remain constant into the future. This is only an estimate, as actual amounts borrowed and rates will vary over time. Our floating rate loans and our related liabilities are indexed to Term SOFR.

With respect to our debt obligations that are contractually due within the next five years, we plan to employ several strategies to meet these obligations, including: (i) exercising maturity date extension options that exist in our current financing arrangements; (ii) negotiating extensions of terms with our providers of credit; (iii) periodically accessing the private and public equity and debt capital markets to raise cash to fund new investments or the repayment of indebtedness; (iv) the issuance of additional structured finance vehicles, such as collateralized loan obligations similar to TRTX 2022-FL5, TRTX 2021-FL4, or TRTX 2019-FL3 as a method of financing; (v) term loans with private lenders; (vi) selling loans and REO to generate cash to repay our debt obligations; and/or (vii) applying repayments from underlying loans to satisfy the debt obligations which they secure. Although these avenues have been available to us in the past, we cannot offer any assurance that we will be able to access any or all of these alternatives in the future.

We are required to pay our Manager a base management fee, an incentive fee, and reimbursements for certain expenses pursuant to our Management Agreement. The table above does not include the amounts payable to our Manager under our Management Agreement as they are not fixed and determinable. During the year ended December 31, 2023, our Manager did not earn an incentive management fee. See Note 10 to our Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Form 10-K for additional terms and details of the fees payable under our Management Agreement.

As a REIT, we generally must distribute substantially all of our net taxable income to stockholders in the form of dividends to comply with the REIT provisions of the Internal Revenue Code. In 2017, the IRS issued a revenue procedure permitting “publicly offered” REITs to make elective stock dividends (i.e. dividends paid in a mixture of stock and cash), with at least 20% of the total distribution being paid in cash, to satisfy their REIT distribution requirements. Pursuant to this revenue procedure, we may elect to make future distributions of our taxable income in a mixture of stock and cash.

Our REIT taxable income does not necessarily equal our net income as calculated in accordance with GAAP or our Distributable Earnings as described above. See Note 9 to our Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Form 10-K for additional details.

Dividends

Upon the approval of our Board of Directors, we accrue dividends. We intend to distribute each year not less than 90% of our taxable income to our stockholders to comply with the REIT provisions of the Internal Revenue Code. The Board of Directors will determine whether to pay future dividends, entirely in cash, or in a combination of stock and cash based on facts and circumstances at the time such decisions are made.

On December 18, 2023, our Board of Directors declared and approved a cash dividend of $0.24 per share of common stock, or $19.2 million in the aggregate, for the fourth quarter of 2023. The common stock dividend was paid on January 25, 2024 to the holders of record of our common stock as of December 29, 2023.

On December 8, 2023, our Board of Directors declared a cash dividend of $0.3906 per share of Series C Preferred Stock, or $3.1 million in the aggregate, for the fourth quarter of 2023. The Series C Preferred Stock dividend was paid on December 29, 2023 to the preferred stockholders of record as of December 19, 2023.

On December 9, 2022, our Board of Directors declared and approved a cash dividend of $0.24 per share of common stock, or $19.0 million in the aggregate, for the fourth quarter of 2022. The common stock dividend was paid on January 25, 2023 to the holders of record of our common stock as of December 29, 2022.

On December 9, 2022, our Board of Directors declared a cash dividend of $0.3906 per share of Series C Preferred Stock, or $3.1 million in the aggregate, for the fourth quarter of 2022. The Series C Preferred Stock dividend was paid on December 30, 2022 to the preferred stockholders of record as of December 20, 2022.

For the year ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, common stock dividends in the amount of $76.0 million and $75.1 million, respectively, were declared and approved.

As of December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, common stock dividends of $19.2 million and $19.0 million, respectively, were unpaid and are reflected in dividends payable on our consolidated balance sheets.

Critical Accounting Estimates

The preparation of our consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires our management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, interest income and other revenue recognition, allowance for loan losses, expense recognition, tax liability, future impairment of our investments, valuation of our investment portfolio and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, among other items. Our management bases these estimates and judgments about current, and for some estimates, future economic and market conditions and their effects on available information, historical experience and other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. However, these estimates, judgments and assumptions are often subjective and may be impacted negatively based on changing circumstances or changes in our analyses.

If conditions change from those expected, it is possible that our judgments, estimates and assumptions could change, which may result in a change in our interest income and other revenue recognition, allowance for loan losses, expense recognition, tax liability, future write-offs of our investments, and valuation of our investment portfolio, among other effects. If actual amounts are ultimately different from those estimated, judged or assumed, revisions are included in the consolidated financial statements in the period in which the actual amounts become known. We believe our critical accounting estimates could potentially produce materially different results if we were to change underlying estimates, judgments or assumptions.

During 2023, our Manager reviewed and evaluated our critical accounting policies and believes them to be appropriate, but such belief is based on judgments, estimates and assumptions. The following is a summary of our significant accounting policies that we believe are the most affected by our Manager's judgments, estimates, and assumptions:

Real Estate Owned

Upon the acquisition of a property, we assess the fair value of the acquired tangible and intangible assets (including land, buildings, tenant improvements, above and below-market leases, acquired in-place leases, other identified intangible assets and assumed liabilities) and allocate the purchase price to the acquired assets and assumed liabilities, which are on a relative fair value basis. The most significant portion of the allocation is to building and land and requires the use of market based estimates and assumptions. We assess and consider fair value based on estimated cash flow projections that utilize appropriate discount and/or capitalization rates, as well as other available market information. Estimates of future cash flows are based on a number of factors including the historical operating results, known and anticipated trends, and market and economic conditions.

In determining the fair value of the tangible assets of an acquired property, we consider the value of the property as if it were vacant. We also consider an allocation of purchase price of other acquired intangibles, including acquired in-place leases that may have a customer relationship intangible value, including (but not limited to) the nature and extent of the existing relationship with the tenants, the tenants’ credit quality and expectations of lease renewals.

Acquired above and below-market leases are recorded at their fair values (using a discount rate which reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) equal to the difference between (i) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to each in-place lease and (ii) management’s estimate of fair market lease rates for each corresponding in-place lease, measured over a period equal to the remaining term of the lease for favorable leases and the initial term plus the term of any below-market fixed rate renewal options for unfavorable leases. Other intangible assets acquired include amounts for in-place lease values that are based on our evaluation of the specific characteristics of each tenant’s lease. Factors to be considered include estimates of carrying costs during hypothetical expected lease-up periods considering current market conditions, and costs to execute similar leases. In estimating carrying costs, we include real estate taxes, insurance and other operating expenses and estimates of lost rentals at market rates during the expected lease-up periods, depending on local market conditions. In estimating costs to execute similar leases, we consider leasing commissions, legal and other related expenses.

Allowance for Credit Losses

As discussed in Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Form 10-K, on January 1, 2020, we adopted Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses, and subsequent amendments, which replaced the incurred loss methodology with an expected loss model known as the Current Expected Credit Loss ("CECL") model. The initial CECL reserve recorded on January 1, 2020 is reflected as a direct charge to our retained earnings on the consolidated statements of changes in equity. Subsequent changes to the CECL reserve are recognized through net income on our consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. The allowance for credit losses measured under the CECL accounting framework represents an estimate of current expected losses for our existing portfolio of loans held for investment and is presented as a valuation reserve on our consolidated balance sheets. Expected credit losses related to non-cancelable unfunded loan commitments are accounted for as separate liabilities included in accrued expenses and other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. The allowance for credit losses for loans held for investment, as reported in our consolidated balance sheets, is adjusted by a credit loss (expense) benefit, which is reported in earnings in the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income and reduced by the write-off of loan amounts, net of recoveries and additions related to purchased credit-deteriorated (“PCD”) assets, if relevant. The allowance for credit losses includes a modeled component and an individually-assessed component. We have elected to not measure an allowance for credit losses on accrued interest receivables related to all of our loans held for investment because we write off uncollectible accrued interest receivable in a timely manner pursuant to our non-accrual policy.

We consider key credit quality indicators in underwriting loans and estimating credit losses, including but not limited to: the capitalization of borrowers and sponsors; the expertise of the borrowers and sponsors in a particular real estate sector and geographic market; collateral type; geographic region; use and occupancy of the property; property market value; loan-to-value (“LTV”) ratio; loan amount and lien position; debt service and coverage ratio; our risk rating for the same and similar loans; and prior experience with the borrower and sponsor. This information is used to assess the financial and operating capability, experience and profitability of the sponsor/borrower. Ultimate repayment of our loans is sensitive to interest rate changes, general economic conditions, liquidity, LTV ratio, existence of a liquid investment sales market for commercial properties, and availability of replacement short-term or long-term financing. The loans in our commercial mortgage loan portfolio are secured by collateral of the following property types: office; life science; multifamily; hotel; industrial; mixed-use; land for industrial and office use; and self storage.

Our loans are typically collateralized by real estate, or in the case of mezzanine loans, by a partnership interest or similar equity interest in the entity that owns the real estate securing our first mortgage loan. We regularly evaluate on a loan-by-loan basis, typically no less frequently than quarterly, the extent and impact of any credit deterioration associated with the performance and/or value of the underlying collateral property, and the financial and operating capability of the borrower/sponsor. We also evaluate the financial strength of loan guarantors, if any, and the borrower’s competency in managing and operating the property or properties. In addition, we consider the overall economic environment, real estate sector, and geographic sub-market in which the borrower operates. Such analyses are completed and reviewed by asset management personnel and evaluated by senior management, who utilize various data sources, including, to the extent available (i) periodic financial data such as property occupancy, tenant profile, rental rates, operating expenses, the borrower’s exit plan, and capitalization and discount rates, (ii) site inspections, (iii) sales and financing comparables, (iv) current credit spreads for refinancing and (v) other market data.

Quarterly, the Company evaluates the risk of all loans and assigns a risk rating based on a variety of factors, whereby no single factor on its own, whether quantitative or qualitative, is given more weight than others. The factors that the Company considers in connection with this evaluation are grouped as follows: (i) loan and credit structure, including the as-is LTV and structural features; (ii) quality and stability of real estate value and operating cash flow, including debt yield, property type, dynamics of the geography, property type and local market, physical condition, stability of cash flow, leasing velocity and quality and diversity of tenancy; (iii) performance against underwritten business plan; and (iv) quality, experience and financial condition of sponsor, borrower and guarantor(s). Based on a 5-point scale, our loans are rated “1” through “5,” from least risk to greatest risk, respectively:

1 -Very Low Risk

2 -Low Risk

3 -Medium Risk

4 -High Risk/Potential for Loss—A loan that has a risk of realizing a principal loss; and

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

We generally assign a risk rating of “3” to all loans originated or acquired during the most recent quarter, except when specific circumstances warrant an exception. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company simplified its risk rating definitions. The Company re-evaluated its risk ratings based on the simplified definitions and concluded that there was no impact to prior period risk ratings.

Table of Contents

Our CECL reserve also reflects estimates of the current and future economic conditions that impact the performance of the commercial real estate assets securing the loans. These estimates include unemployment rates, inflation rates, interest rates, price indices for commercial property, current and expected future availability of liquidity in the commercial property debt and equity capital markets, and other macroeconomic factors that may influence the likelihood and magnitude of potential credit losses for our loans during their anticipated term. We license certain macroeconomic financial forecasts to inform our view of the potential future impact that broader economic conditions may have on our loan portfolio’s performance. Selection of the economic forecast or forecasts used, in conjunction with loan level inputs, to determine the CECL reserve requires significant judgment about future events that, while based on the information available to us as of the balance sheet date, are ultimately unknowable with certainty. The actual economic conditions impacting our loan portfolio could vary significantly from the estimates made for the periods presented.

The commercial property investment sales and commercial mortgage loan markets have experienced uneven liquidity due to global macroeconomic conditions, including heightened inflation, changes to fiscal and monetary policy, increased interest rates, currency fluctuations, labor shortages and recent distress in the banking sector, which continue to make it more difficult to estimate key inputs for estimating the allowance for credit losses. The amount of allowance for credit losses is influenced by the size of our loan portfolio, loan asset quality, risk rating, delinquency status, historic loss experience and other conditions influencing loss expectations, such as reasonable and supportable forecasts of economic conditions. We employ two methods to estimate credit losses in our loan portfolio: (1) a model-based approach and (2) an individually-assessed approach for loans considered to be "collateral-dependent" as the repayment of the loan is expected to be provided substantially through the operation or sale of the underlying collateral and the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty or foreclosure is probable. Estimates made by us are necessarily subject to change due to the limited number of observable inputs and uncertainty regarding the global macroeconomic conditions described above. See Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in this Form 10-K for further discussion of our methodologies.

Significant judgment is required when estimating future credit losses and as a result actual losses over time could be materially different. During the year ended December 31, 2023, we recognized a decrease of $144.8 million to our allowance for credit losses. The credit loss allowance was $69.8 million as of December 31, 2023.

See Note 2 to our Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Form 10-K for a listing and description of our significant accounting policies.

Loan Portfolio Details

The following table provides details with respect to our loans held for investment portfolio on a loan-by-loan basis as of December 31, 2023 (dollars in millions, except loan per square foot/unit):

98

Table of Contents

_______________________________

*    Numbers presented may not foot due to rounding.

(1)First mortgage loans are whole mortgage loans unless otherwise noted.

(2)Date loan was originated or acquired by us. The origination or acquisition date is not updated for subsequent loan modifications.

(3)Represents unpaid principal balance net of unamortized costs.

(4)In addition to the interest rate, all-in yield includes the amortization of deferred origination fees, purchase price premium and discount, and accrual of both extension and exit fees. All-in yield for our loan assets and total loan portfolio excludes the applicable floating benchmark interest rate as of December 31, 2023 and excludes the impact of our interest rate floors and borrower interest rate caps.

(5)Extended maturity assumes all extension options are exercised by the borrower; provided, however, that our loans may be repaid prior to such date. As of December 31, 2023, based on unpaid principal balance, 8.4% of our loans were subject to yield maintenance or other prepayment restrictions and 91.6% were open to repayment by the borrower without penalty.

(6)Except for construction loans, LTV is calculated for loan originations and existing loans as the total outstanding principal balance of the loan or participation interest in a loan (plus any financing that is pari passu with or senior to such loan or participation interest) divided by the as-is appraised value of our collateral at the time of origination or acquisition of such loan or participation interest. For construction loans only, LTV is calculated as the total commitment amount of the loan divided by the as-stabilized value of the real estate securing the loan. The as-is or as-stabilized (as applicable) value reflects our Manager’s estimates, at the time of origination or acquisition of the loan or participation interest in a loan, of the real estate value underlying such loan or participation interest determined in accordance with our Manager’s underwriting standards and consistent with third-party appraisals obtained by our Manager.

(7)For a discussion of risk ratings, please see Notes 2 and 3 to our Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Form 10-K.

(8)Represents the weighted average of the credit spread as of December 31, 2023 for the loans, all of which are floating rate.

(9)Calculated as the ratio of unpaid principal balance as of December 31, 2023 to the as-is appraised value at origination, to reflect the sale by us in August 2020 of the contiguous mezzanine loan with an unpaid principal balance of $46.4 million and a commitment amount of $50.0 million as of sale date.

(10)This loan is comprised of a first mortgage loan of $81.0 million and a contiguous mezzanine loan of $82.0 million, of which we own both. Each loan carries the same interest rate.

(11)This loan represents a 41.2% pari passu participation interest in a first mortgage loan, that was originated by a third party on August 31, 2021 and acquired by us on September 1, 2022.

(12)This loan was originated by a third party on June 9, 2021 and acquired by us on September 1, 2022.
