These forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties, including, among other things, those described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, under the caption "*Risk Factors*." Other risks, uncertainties and factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected are described below and may be described from time to time in reports we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC, including our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Current Reports on Form 8-K. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and we undertake no obligation to update or revise any such forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Important factors that may affect our actual results include, among others:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the general political, economic and competitive conditions in the markets in which we invest and their impact on our investment portfolio, financial condition and business operations;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a prolonged economic slowdown, including as a result of current global trade tensions and/or tariffs, a lengthy or severe recession, severe public health events or declining real estate values, could impair our investments or harm our operations;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• inflationary trends which have led to higher interest rates and increased market volatility;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• reduced demand for office space, including as a result of hybrid work schedules which allow work from remote locations other than the employer's office premises;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• defaults by borrowers in paying debt service on outstanding indebtedness and borrowers' abilities to manage and stabilize properties;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• our ability to obtain or maintain financing arrangements on terms favorable to us or at all;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the level and volatility of prevailing interest rates and credit spreads;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• reductions in the yield on our investments and increases in the cost of our financing;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• general volatility of the securities markets in which we participate and the potential need to post additional collateral on our financing arrangements;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the return or impact of current or future investments;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• changes in our business, investment strategies or target investments;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• increased competition from entities investing in our target investments;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• effects of hedging instruments on our target investments;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• changes in governmental regulations, tax law and rates and similar matters;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• availability of desirable investment opportunities;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• threats to information security, including by way of cyber-attacks;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• availability of qualified personnel;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• operational failures by third-parties on whom we rely in the conduct of our business;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• estimates relating to our ability to make distributions to our stockholders in the future;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• natural disasters, such as hurricanes, earthquakes, wildfires and floods, including climate change-related risks; acts of war and/or terrorism; pandemics or outbreaks of infectious disease; civil disturbances and other events that may cause

unanticipated and uninsured performance declines and/or losses to us or the owners and operators of the real estate securing our investments, including as a result of a decrease in the availability of and/or increase in the cost of insurance;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• deterioration in the performance of the properties securing our investments that may cause deterioration in the performance of our investments, risks in collection of contractual interest payments and, potentially, principal losses to us, including the risk of credit loss charges and any impact on our ability to satisfy the covenants and conditions in our debt agreements; and

**GRANITE POINT MORTGAGE TRUST INC.**

**Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements**

**Note 1. Organization and Operations**

Granite Point Mortgage Trust Inc., or the Company, is an internally managed commercial real estate finance company that focuses primarily on directly originating, investing in and managing senior floating-rate commercial mortgage loans and other debt and debt-like commercial real estate investments. These investments are capitalized by accessing a variety of funding sources, including borrowing under the Company's bank credit facilities or other asset financings, issuing commercial real estate collateralized loan obligations, or CRE CLOs, and issuing other forms of secured and unsecured debt and equity securities, depending on market conditions and the Company's view of the most appropriate funding option available for the Company's investments. The Company is not in the business of buying or trading securities, and the only securities it owns are the retained interests from its CRE CLOs. The Company's investment objective is to preserve the Company's stockholders' capital while generating attractive risk-adjusted returns over the long term, primarily through dividends derived from current income produced by the Company's investment portfolio. The Company's common stock is listed on the NYSE under the symbol "GPMT." The Company's principal executive offices are located at 3 Bryant Park, 24th Floor, New York, New York 10036. The Company operates its business in a manner that is intended to permit it to maintain its exclusion from registration under the Investment Company Act. The Company operates its business as one segment. The Company was incorporated in Maryland on April 7, 2017, and commenced operations as a publicly traded company on June 28, 2017.

The Company has elected to be treated as a REIT, as defined under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the Code, for U.S. federal income tax purposes. As long as the Company continues to comply with a number of requirements under federal tax law and maintains its qualification as a REIT, the Company generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income taxes to the extent that the Company distributes its taxable income to its stockholders on an annual basis and does not engage in prohibited transactions. However, certain activities that the Company may perform may cause it to earn income which will not be qualifying income for REIT purposes. The Company has designated one of its subsidiaries as a taxable REIT subsidiary, or TRS, as defined in the Code, to engage in such activities.

**Note 2. Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies**

***Consolidation and Basis of Presentation***

The interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, have been condensed or omitted according to such SEC rules and regulations. However, management believes that the disclosures included in these interim condensed consolidated financial statements are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024. In the opinion of management, all normal and recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial condition of the Company at September 30, 2025, and results of operations for all periods presented have been made. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, should not be construed as indicative of the results to be expected for future periods or the full year.

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company include the accounts of all subsidiaries; inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

All entities in which the Company holds investments that are considered VIEs for financial reporting purposes were reviewed for consolidation under the applicable consolidation guidance. Whenever the Company has both the power to direct the activities of an entity that most significantly impact the entity's performance, and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits of the entity that could be significant, the Company consolidates the entity. See Note 5 - *Variable Interest Entities and Securitized Debt Obligations* to the Company's Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional details regarding consolidation of VIEs.

***Use of Estimates***

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make a number of significant estimates. These include estimates of amount and timing of allowances for credit losses, fair value of certain assets and liabilities including real estate owned and associated purchase price allocation of fair value, and other estimates that affect the reported amounts of certain assets and liabilities as of the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of certain revenues and expenses during the reported period. It is likely that changes in these estimates (e.g., valuation changes to the underlying collateral of loans due to changes in market interest and capitalization rates, leasing, creditworthiness of major tenants, occupancy rates, availability of financing, exit plan, loan sponsorship, actions of other

lenders, overall economic and capital markets conditions, the broader commercial real estate market, local geographic sub-markets or other factors) will occur in the near term.

The Company believes the estimates and assumptions underlying its condensed consolidated financial statements are reasonable and supportable based on the information available as of September 30, 2025. However, the Company's actual results could ultimately differ from its estimates and such differences may be material.

***Significant Accounting Policies***

Included in Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, is a summary of the Company's significant accounting policies. Provided below is a summary of additional accounting policies that are significant to the Company's condensed consolidated financial condition and results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025.

*Real Estate Owned, Net and Real Estate Held-for-Sale*

If the Company intends to hold, operate or develop the property, the asset is classified as real estate owned, net on its consolidated balance sheets. If the held-for-sale criteria prescribed by ASC 360, Property, Plant and Equipment, are met, the asset is classified as real estate owned held-for-sale and reflected at the lower of amortized cost and fair value less estimated transaction costs to sell on the consolidated balance sheets. Once classified as real estate owned held-for-sale, the Company ceases recognition of the related depreciation and amortization.

***Recently Issued and/or Adopted Accounting Standards***

*Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures*

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, *Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures*, or ASU 2023-09. The new guidance requires entities to disclose the amount of income taxes paid, net of refunds received, disaggregated by federal, state and foreign jurisdiction, with the intention of improving the transparency of income tax disclosures. ASU 2023-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, and is to be adopted on a prospective basis with the option to apply retrospectively. The Company has adopted ASU 2023-09, which did not have a material impact on the Company's financial condition, results of operations or financial statement disclosures.

 *Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses*

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, *Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses,* or ASU 2024-03. The new guidance requires a public business entity to provide disaggregated disclosures in the notes to the financial statements of certain categories of expenses that are included in expense line items on the face of the income statement. ASU 2024-03 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026. The guidance is applied prospectively and may be applied retrospectively. The Company is evaluating the impact of ASU 2024-03.

(1)The current expected credit loss, or CECL, reserve for unfunded commitments is included in "Other liabilities" on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

During the three months ended September 30, 2025, the Company recorded a net decrease of $(21.4) million in its total allowance for credit losses on its loan portfolio primarily due to $(19.8) million in write-offs and a $(1.6) million benefit from credit losses, resulting in a total allowance for credit losses of $133.6 million as of September 30, 2025. The decrease in the allowance was primarily related to a resolution of one loan that had been previously individually assessed, along with a decrease in the general CECL reserve due to improved macroeconomic forecast assumptions. The decreases were partially offset by additional specific reserves on loans that were individually assessed during the three months ended September 30, 2025.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company recorded a net decrease of $(67.4) million in its total allowance for credit losses on its loan portfolio primarily due to $(80.5) million in write-offs, partially offset by a $13.1 million provision for credit losses. The decrease in the allowance was primarily related to resolutions of five loans that had been previously individually assessed, along with a decrease in the general CECL reserve pool balance. The decreases were partially offset by additional specific reserves on loans that were assessed individually, and an increase due to worsening macroeconomic forecast assumptions employed in estimating the general CECL reserve during the nine months ended September 30, 2025.

During the three months ended September 30, 2025, the Company resolved a senior loan secured by a multifamily student housing property located in Louisville, KY, via a property sale. The loan was on nonaccrual status with an unpaid principal

balance of $50.0 million and a risk-rating of "5." As a result of the property sale, the Company recognized a write-off of approximately $(19.4) million, which had been reserved for through a previously recorded allowance for credit losses of $22.6 million, resulting in a benefit from credit losses of $3.2 million.

As of September 30, 2025, the Company had three collateral-dependent loans with an aggregate principal balance of $196.3 million, for which the Company recorded an allowance for credit losses of $86.5 million. These loans were individually assessed in accordance with the CECL framework and the allowance for credit losses was determined based on the estimates of the collateral properties' fair value. The performance of the collateral properties securing these loans, which include one office building, one retail property, and one hotel property, has been impacted by an uncertain commercial real estate market and macroeconomic outlook, which includes weakening in credit fundamentals, capital markets volatility and significantly reduced real estate transaction activity, especially for certain property types, such as office assets located in underperforming markets with reduced tenant demand, and a higher cost of capital driven by elevated interest rates. These macroeconomic and market factors have resulted in the slowing of business plan execution and reduced market liquidity, thereby impacting the borrowers' ability to either sell or refinance their properties to repay the Company's loans. See Note 8 - *Fair Value,* for further detail on the fair value measurement of these loans.

*Nonaccrual Loans*

The following table presents the changes in the carrying value of loans held-for-investment on nonaccrual status for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, and 2024:

| | | | | |

| **(in thousands)** | **2025** | **2024** | **2025** | **2024** |
| Nonaccrual loan carrying value at beginning of period | $125040 | $452797 | $298365 | $343683 |
| Addition of nonaccrual loan carrying value | 20178 | 58374 | 20178 | 253732 |
| Reduction of nonaccrual loan carrying value | (35485) | (102995) | (208810) | (189239) |
| Nonaccrual loan carrying value at end of period | $109733 | $408176 | $109733 | $408176 |

---

As of September 30, 2025, the Company had three senior loans with a total unpaid principal balance of $196.3 million and carrying value of $109.7 million that were held on nonaccrual status, compared to 11 senior loans with a total unpaid principal balance of $628.5 million and carrying value of $408.2 million that were held on nonaccrual status as of September 30, 2024. Additionally, the Company had one loan with a principal balance of $20.4 million that was in maturity default with a maturity date of June 9, 2025, and remained on accrual status due to the loan amount and interest being probable of collection as of September 30, 2025. All other loans were considered current with respect to principal and interest payments due as of September 30, 2025, and September 30, 2024.

*Loan Modifications*

As part of its asset and portfolio management strategy, the Company 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's maturity, and/or deferral of scheduled principal payments. In exchange for a modification, the Company may receive a partial repayment of principal, a short-term accrual of capitalized 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 fees, among other items.

During the twelve months ended September 30, 2025, the Company entered into two loan modifications that met the disclosure requirements pursuant to ASU 2022-02, *Troubled Debt Restructurings And Vintage Disclosures*.

During the three months ended September 30, 2025, the Company completed the modification of a senior loan secured by a hotel property located in Tempe, AZ. As of September 30, 2025, and December 31, 2024, the loan had a principal balance of $26.9 million and $25.2 million, respectively, and an amortized cost of $26.9 million and $25.1 million, respectively. The terms of the modification included, among other things, (i) a 2-month extension of the fully-extended maturity date to November 9, 2025, with one 6-month option to extend to May 9, 2026; and (ii) a $2.5 million upsizing of the total commitment of the loan, resulting in an aggregate $3.7 million upsizing of the total commitment when considering other modifications occurring during the twelve months ended September 30, 2025. Due to the uncertainty with respect to the collection of future principal and interest, the loan was deemed collateral dependent, assigned a risk rating of "5" and was placed on nonaccrual status. The senior loan was performing pursuant to its modified contractual terms as of September 30, 2025.

**Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements** 

During the twelve months ended September 30, 2025, the Company completed the modification of a senior loan secured by a hotel property located in Minneapolis, MN. As of September 30, 2025, and December 31, 2024, the loan had a principal balance of $37.5 million and $52.6 million, respectively, and an amortized cost of $37.5 million and $52.7 million, respectively. The terms of the modification included, among other things, (i) a 3-year extension of the fully-extended maturity date to May 9, 2028, with one 12-month option to extend to May 9, 2029; (ii) a restructuring of the loan into a $37.0 million senior note and a subordinate note that was immediately charged off; and (iii) an accrued pay spread. As a result of the modification, the Company recognized a write-off of approximately $(15.4) million, which had been reserved for through a previously recorded allowance for credit losses. The senior note was performing pursuant to its modified contractual terms as of September 30, 2025.

*Loan Risk Ratings*

The Company's primary credit quality indicators are its risk ratings. The Company evaluates the credit quality of each loan at least quarterly by assessing the risk factors of each loan and assigning a risk rating based on a variety of factors. Risk factors that are considered in the assessment include, but are not limited to, property type, geographic and local market dynamics, physical condition, leasing and tenant profile, projected cash flow, collateral performance, loan structure and exit plan, origination loan-to-value, or LTV, project sponsorship and other factors deemed necessary. The Company evaluates these factors with respect to each loan investment on a case-by-case basis taking into consideration such loan's facts and circumstances at the time. The risk factors may be given different weightings and consideration depending on each loan's situation. Loans are rated "1" (less risk) through "5" (greater risk), which ratings are defined as follows:

1 –Lower Risk

2 –Average Risk

3 –Acceptable Risk

4 –Higher Risk: A loan that has exhibited material deterioration in cash flows and/or other credit factors, which, if negative trends continue, could be indicative of probability of principal loss.

5 –Loss Likely: A loan that has a significantly increased probability of principal loss.

The following table presents the number of loans, unpaid principal balance and carrying value by risk rating for loans held-for-investment as of September 30, 2025, and December 31, 2024:

---

As of September 30, 2025, the weighted average risk rating of the Company's loan portfolio was 2.8, versus 3.1 as of December 31, 2024, weighted by unpaid principal balance. The change in portfolio risk rating as of September 30, 2025, versus December 31, 2024, is mainly a result of risk-rated "5" resolutions during the nine months ended September 30, 2025.

During the three months ended September 30, 2025, as part of its quarterly risk rating process, the Company downgraded one first mortgage loan with an aggregate outstanding principal balance of $26.9 million and secured by a hotel property to a risk rating of "5." The loan is considered collateral dependent and has been placed on nonaccrual status as of September 30, 2025.

As of September 30, 2025, the Company assigned a risk rating of "5" to three senior loans with an aggregate outstanding principal balance of $196.3 million. These loans were assigned a risk rating of "5" due to the borrowers' unwillingness to make further capital commitments to support the collateral properties resulting from a variety of factors including the challenging office leasing environment, local market fundamentals, uncertain and volatile capital market conditions resulting in limited liquidity for real estate transactions, further pressure on property values and other factors related to property specific operating performance.

**Note 4. Real Estate Owned, Net**

As of September 30, 2025, assets and liabilities related to REO consisted of two office properties, one located in each of Miami Beach, FL and Maynard, MA. The Company accounted for these as asset acquisitions. As of September 30, 2025, the carrying value of the Company's REO is $105.5 million, which includes $7.2 million in net other assets and other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company determined that one office property located in Phoenix, AZ met the held-for-sale criteria, and reclassified the asset to real estate owned held-for-sale. On the reclassification date, the real estate owned asset held-for-investment had a carrying value of $16.4 million, which was lower than the fair value less estimated transaction costs to sell of $16.7 million. On June 23, 2025, the real estate owned asset was sold for a net sales price of $16.7 million, which resulted in a $0.3 million gain on sale on the consolidated statements of comprehensive income. No real estate owned assets were sold during the three months ended September 30, 2025.

**Note 5. Variable Interest Entities and Securitized Debt Obligations**

*CRE CLOs*

The Company finances pools of its commercial real estate loans through CRE CLOs, which are considered VIEs for financial reporting purposes, and, thus, are reviewed for consolidation under the applicable consolidation guidance. The Company has both the power to direct the activities of the CRE CLOs that most significantly impact the entities' performance and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits of the entities that could be significant; therefore, the Company consolidates the CRE CLOs.

The following table presents a summary of the assets and liabilities of all VIEs consolidated on the Company's condensed consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2025, and December 31, 2024:

______________________

(1)Calculations of all-in yield on collateral assets at origination are based on a number of assumptions (some or all of which may not occur) and are expressed as monthly equivalent yields that include net origination fees and exit fees and exclude future fundings and any potential or completed loan amendments or modifications. Calculation of cost of funds is the weighted average coupon of the CRE CLO, exclusive of any CRE CLO issuance costs.

(2)No restricted cash is included as of September 30, 2025. $8.0 million in restricted cash is included as of December 31, 2024. Yield on collateral assets is exclusive of restricted cash.

(4)No restricted cash is included as of September 30, 2025. $8.0 million in restricted cash is included as of December 31, 2024. Yield on collateral assets is exclusive of restricted cash.

*Other Investments*

As of September 30, 2025, the Company held $4.0 million in non-controlling investment partnerships with the borrower entities of three loans held-for-investment by the Company. The Company may contribute up to an additional aggregate $1.9 million in the form of investments in these partnership entities.

The partnerships are considered VIEs and the Company's investments and loans to the partnerships are considered variable interests in the VIEs. The Company is not the primary beneficiary of the VIEs because it does not have the power to direct the activities of the entity that most significantly impact the entity's performance as all decisions are directed by the unaffiliated general partner of the partnerships. The unconsolidated investments are included in the Company's condensed consolidated balance sheets within Other Assets.

**Note 6. Secured Financing Agreements**

To finance its loans held-for-investment, the Company has a variety of secured financing arrangements with several counterparties, including repurchase facilities and a secured credit facility. The Company's repurchase facilities are typically collateralized by loans held-for-investment, loans held-for-sale, REO assets and certain cash balances. Although the transactions under the Company's existing repurchase facilities represent committed borrowings until maturity of each facility, the facility lenders retain the right to mark the underlying collateral to fair value. A reduction in the value of pledged assets due to collateral-specific credit events, or, with respect to a limited number of the Company's repurchase facilities, capital market events, would require the Company to fund margin calls. The Company does not typically retain similar rights for the Company to make margin calls on its underlying borrowers as a result of a determination by the Company and/or its financing counterparty that there has been a decrease in the market value of the underlying pledged collateral.

The Company's secured credit facility is typically collateralized by loans held-for-investment, loans held-for-sale, REO assets and certain cash balances and is non-mark-to-market.

*Financial Covenants*

The Company is subject to a variety of financial covenants under its secured financing arrangements. The following represent the most restrictive financial covenants to which the Company is subject across its secured financing arrangements:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Unrestricted cash cannot be less than the greater of $30.0 million and 5.0% of recourse indebtedness. As of September 30, 2025, the Company's unrestricted cash was $62.7 million, while 5.0% of the Company's recourse indebtedness was $6.9 million.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Tangible net worth must be greater than the sum of (i) $600.0 million and (ii) 75.0% of net cash proceeds of the Company's equity issuances after September 30, 2024. As the Company has not had any equity issuances after September 30, 2024, tangible net worth must be greater than $600.0 million. As of September 30, 2025, the Company's tangible net worth was $715.6 million.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Target asset leverage ratio cannot exceed 77.5% and total leverage ratio cannot exceed 80.0%. As of September 30, 2025, the Company's target asset leverage ratio was 69.5% and the Company's total leverage ratio was 63.0%.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Minimum interest coverage of no less than 1.2:1.0 until and including December 31, 2025. As of September 30, 2025, the Company's interest coverage ratio was 1.3:1.0.

As of September 30, 2025, and December 31, 2024, the Company was in compliance with its financial covenants.

**Note 7. Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash**

Cash and cash equivalents include cash held in bank accounts and cash held in money market funds on an overnight basis.

The Company is required to maintain certain cash balances in restricted accounts as collateral for the Company's repurchase facilities and with its lending counterparties to support investment activities. As of September 30, 2025, the Company held $11.2 million in restricted cash in connection with its non-CRE CLO financing activities, compared to $18.7 million as of December 31, 2024. From time to time, the Company may also hold restricted cash representing proceeds from principal repayments and paydowns of loans held in the CRE CLOs. As of September 30, 2025, the Company held no restricted cash related to the CRE CLOs, compared to $8.0 million in restricted cash related to the CRE CLOs as of December 31, 2024.

**Note 8. Fair Value**

***Fair Value Measurements***

ASC 820, *Fair Value Measurements*, or ASC 820, defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. ASC 820 clarifies that fair value should be based on the assumptions market participants would use when pricing an asset or liability and establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the information used to develop those assumptions. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices available in active markets (*i.e.*, market-based or observable inputs) and the lowest priority to data lacking transparency (*i.e.*, unobservable inputs) resulting in the use of management assumptions. Additionally, ASC 820 requires an entity to consider all aspects of non-performance risk, including the entity's own credit standing, when measuring fair value of a liability.

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#ie37ff5df5919453b98d6903e42ed7326_13)</u>

**GRANITE POINT MORTGAGE TRUST INC.**

**Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements** 

ASC 820 establishes a three-level hierarchy to be used when measuring and disclosing fair value. An instrument's categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of significant input to its valuation. Following is a description of the three levels:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**Level 1** | Inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the measurement date under current market conditions. Additionally, the entity must have the ability to access the active market and the quoted prices cannot be adjusted by the entity. |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**Level 2** | Inputs include quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in inactive markets for identical or similar assets or liabilities; or inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means for substantially the full-term of the assets or liabilities. |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**Level 3** | Unobservable inputs are supported by little or no market activity. The unobservable inputs represent the assumptions that market participants would use to price the assets and liabilities, including risk. Generally, Level 3 assets and liabilities are valued using pricing models, discounted cash flow models or similar techniques that require significant judgment or estimation. |

---

The following are descriptions of the valuation methodologies used to measure material assets and liabilities at fair value and details of the valuation models, key inputs to those models and significant assumptions utilized.

*Recurring Fair Value*

As of September 30, 2025, and December 31, 2024, the carrying values and fair values of cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash are measured at fair value on a recurring basis. No other assets or liabilities held by the Company are measured at fair value on a recurring basis.

*Nonrecurring Fair Value*

The Company may be required to measure certain assets or liabilities at fair value from time to time. These periodic fair value measures typically result from establishing the allowance for credit losses for collateral-dependent assets under GAAP. These items would constitute nonrecurring fair value measures. For collateral-dependent loans that are identified as impaired, the Company measures allowance for credit losses by comparing its estimation of the fair value of the underlying collateral, less costs to sell, to the carrying value of the respective loan. To estimate the fair value of the underlying collateral, the Company may (i) use certain valuation techniques which, among others, may include a discounted cash flow model, or (ii) obtain a third-party independent assessment of value such as an appraisal or other opinion of value. These valuations require significant judgments, which include assumptions regarding capitalization rates, discount rates, leasing, creditworthiness of major tenants, occupancy rates, availability and cost of financing, exit plan, loan sponsorship, actions of other lenders, and other factors deemed relevant.

As of September 30, 2025, the Company deemed three of its loans held-for-investment with an aggregate outstanding principal balance of $196.3 million to be collateral-dependent in accordance with its policy. Therefore, the allowance for credit losses associated with these loans was based on the estimates of the fair value of the loans' underlying property collateral, less costs to sell, if applicable, and the loans are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis using significant unobservable inputs and would be classified as Level 3 assets in the fair value hierarchy.

As of September 30, 2025, three of these loans, with an aggregate outstanding principal balance of $196.3 million, were valued using a discounted cash flow model. The significant unobservable inputs used to estimate the fair value on these loans as of September 30, 2025, include the exit capitalization rate, which ranged from 7.00% to 13.00%, and the discount rate, which ranged from 9.00% to 15.00%. As of September 30, 2025, the weighted average exit capitalization rate by the estimated collateral fair value and weighted average discount rate by the estimated collateral fair value were 9.19% and 11.31%, respectively.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company acquired legal title of an office property in Miami Beach, FL. The Company's fair market value estimate at the time of conversion from loan held-for-investment to REO was $71.0 million and was determined using a discounted cash flow model. The significant unobservable inputs used to estimate the fair value include a 7.25% exit capitalization rate and an 8.75% discount rate. Refer to Note 2 - *Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies*, Note 3 - *Loans Held-for-Investment, Net of Allowance for Credit Losses*, and Note 4 - *Real Estate Owned, Net* for further detail.

***Fair Value of Financial Instruments***

In accordance with ASC 820, the Company is required to disclose the fair value of financial instruments, both assets and liabilities recognized and not recognized in the condensed consolidated balance sheets, for which fair value can be estimated.

**GRANITE POINT MORTGAGE TRUST INC.**

**Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements** 

The following describes the Company's methods for estimating the fair value for financial instruments:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Loans held-for-investment are carried at cost, net of any unamortized acquisition premiums or discounts, loan fees, origination costs and allowance for credit losses, as applicable. The Company estimates the fair value of its loans held-for-investment by assessing any changes in market interest rates, credit spreads for loans of comparable risk as corroborated by inquiry of other market participants, shifts in credit profiles and actual operating results, taking into consideration such factors as underlying property type, property competitive position within its market, market and submarket fundamentals, tenant mix, nature of business plan, sponsorship, extent of leverage and other loan terms. The Company categorizes the fair value measurement of these assets as Level 3.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash have a carrying value which approximates fair value because of the short maturities of these instruments. The Company categorizes the fair value measurement of these assets as Level 1.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The carrying value of underlying loans in repurchase and secured credit facilities that mature in less than one year generally approximates fair value due to the short maturities. The Company's long-term repurchase and secured credit facilities have, and the Company's asset-specific facility had, floating rates based on an index plus a credit spread and the credit spread is typically consistent with those demanded in the market. Accordingly, the interest rates on these borrowings are at market and, thus, carrying value approximates fair value. The Company categorizes the fair value measurement of these liabilities as Level 2.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Securitized debt obligations are recorded at outstanding principal, net of any unamortized deferred debt issuance costs. In determining the fair value of its securitized debt obligations, management's judgment may be used to arrive at fair value that considers prices obtained from third-party pricing providers, broker quotes received and other applicable market data. If observable market prices are not available or insufficient to determine fair value due principally to illiquidity in the marketplace, then fair value is based upon internally developed models that are primarily based on observable market-based inputs but also include unobservable market data inputs (including prepayment speeds, delinquency levels and credit losses). The Company categorizes the fair value measurement of these liabilities as Level 2.

The following table presents the carrying values and estimated fair values of assets and liabilities that are required to be recorded or disclosed at fair value at September 30, 2025, and December 31, 2024:

**Note 9. Commitments and Contingencies** 

The following represent the material commitments and contingencies of the Company as of September 30, 2025:

*Legal and Regulatory*

From time to time, the Company may be subject to liability under laws and government regulations and various claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. Liabilities are established for legal claims when payments associated with the claims become probable and the costs can be reasonably estimated. The actual costs of resolving legal claims may be substantially higher or lower than the amounts established for those claims. Based on information currently available, management is not aware of any legal or regulatory claims that would have a material effect on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements and, therefore, no accrual is required as of September 30, 2025.

*Unfunded Commitments on Loans Held-for-Investment*

Certain of the Company's commercial real estate loan agreements contain provisions and obligations to its borrowers through its unfunded loan commitments over the contractual period of its loans. As of September 30, 2025, and December 31, 2024, the Company had unfunded loan commitments of $75.6 million and $90.6 million, respectively, on loans held-for-

**Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements** 

investment, which it expects to fund, subject to the satisfaction of any conditions precedent to such commitments, over the tenure of these loans. These commitments generally provide funding for lease-related or capital improvement expenditures, as well as interest and carry costs, all of which will vary depending on the progress of capital improvement projects, leasing and cash flows at the properties that serve as collateral for the Company's loans. Therefore, the exact timing and amounts of such loan balance future fundings are generally uncertain and will depend on the current and future performance of the collateral properties. The Company typically finances the funding of its loan commitments on terms generally consistent with its overall financing facilities; however, most of its financing facility counterparties are not obligated to fund their ratable portion of these loan commitments over time and have varying degrees of discretion over future loan funding obligations, including the advance rates on their fundings. The Company may be obligated to fund loan commitments with respect to a financed asset even if the applicable financing counterparty will not fund their ratable portion of the loan commitment and/or has made margin calls with respect to such financed asset.

As of September 30, 2025, the Company recognized $2.7 million in other liabilities related to the allowance for credit losses on unfunded loan commitments. See Note 3 - *Loans Held-for-Investment, Net of Allowance for Credit Losses* for further detail.

**Note 10. Preferred Stock** 

*Series A Preferred Stock*

Holders of the Series A Preferred Stock are entitled to receive, when, as and if authorized and declared by the Company's board of directors, cumulative cash dividends at a fixed rate of 7.00% per annum to, but excluding, January 15, 2027, and thereafter at a floating rate equal to the 3-month Term of Standard Overnight Financing Rate, or SOFR, plus a spread of 5.83% per annum; provided, however, in no event will the floating rate be lower than 7.00% per annum. During each of the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, and 2024, the Company declared dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock of $3.6 million and $10.8 million, respectively.

On and after November 30, 2026, the Company, at its option, upon not fewer than 30 days' nor more than 60 days' written notice, may redeem the Series A Preferred Stock, in whole, at any time, or in part, from time to time, for cash, at a redemption price of $25.00 per share, plus any accrued and unpaid dividends thereon to, but excluding, the date fixed for redemption.

Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control event (as defined in the Articles Supplementary designating the Series A Preferred Stock, or the Articles Supplementary), the Company may, at its option, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days' written notice, redeem the Series A Preferred Stock, in whole or in part, within 120 days on or after the first date on which such Change of Control occurred, for cash at a redemption price of $25.00 per share, plus any accumulated and unpaid dividends thereon to, but excluding, the redemption date, without interest.

Holders of Series A Preferred Stock do not have any voting rights except in limited circumstances as set forth in the Articles Supplementary.

*Issuance of Sub-REIT Preferred Stock*

In January 2021, a subsidiary of the Company issued 625 shares of preferred stock of which 500 shares were retained by the Company and 125 shares were sold to third-party investors for proceeds of $0.1 million. The 500 shares of preferred stock retained by the Company were eliminated in the Company's condensed consolidated statements of changes in equity and the 125 shares sold to third-party investors are shown in the Company's condensed consolidated statements of changes in equity as non-controlling interests.

*Share Repurchases*

On September 20, 2024, the Company announced that its board of directors had amended its share repurchase program to authorize the repurchase of an additional 3,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock, for a total cumulative share repurchase authorization of 12,000,000 shares of common stock, inclusive of amounts previously authorized. The Company's share repurchase program has no expiration date. The shares are expected to be repurchased from time to time through privately negotiated transactions or open market transactions, including pursuant to a trading plan in accordance with Rules 10b5-1 and 10b-18 under the Exchange Act, or by any combination of such methods. The manner, price, number and timing of share repurchases will be subject to a variety of factors, including market conditions and applicable SEC rules. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, under its share repurchase program, the Company repurchased 2,128,784 shares of its common stock for an aggregate cost, inclusive of commissions paid, of $5.7 million. No shares of common stock were repurchased during the three months ended September 30, 2025. As of September 30, 2025, there remained 2,636,461 shares authorized for repurchase under the Company's share repurchase program.

**Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements** 

**Note 12. Equity Incentive Plans** 

On June 2, 2022, the Company's stockholders approved the adoption of the Granite Point Mortgage Trust Inc. 2022 Omnibus Incentive Plan, or the 2022 Plan. With the adoption of the 2022 Plan, no new equity awards may be granted under the Granite Point Mortgage Trust Inc. 2017 Equity Incentive Plan, or the 2017 Plan, but previously granted restricted stock units, or RSUs, remain outstanding under the 2017 Plan.

On June 5, 2025, the Company's stockholders approved an amendment to the 2022 Plan, resulting in the Granite Point Mortgage Trust Inc. Amended and Restated 2022 Omnibus Incentive Plan, or the A&R 2022 Plan. The amendment increased the number of shares of common stock that had been available for issuance under the 2022 Plan by 10,000,000. The A&R 2022 Plan permits the granting of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, RSUs, and performance share units, or PSUs, dividend equivalent rights, other stock-based awards and other cash-based awards to employees, certain consultants of the Company and members of the board of directors. As of September 30, 2025, the Company had 15,106,140 shares of common stock available for future issuance under the A&R 2022 Plan, including shares subject to outstanding equity awards.

The following table summarizes the grants, vesting and forfeitures of RSUs and PSUs for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025:

| **Total** | 3882816 | 2262381 | 6145197 |

____________________

(1)The PSUs' vesting date is based on the performance criteria determination date and not the performance criteria service end date. The determination date will occur in the first quarter of the following year after the performance criteria service date has passed. The table above reflects the year of the determination date.

The Company's RSUs are subject to time-based vesting schedules. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company recognized $1.1 million and $5.4 million of compensation expense associated with these awards, respectively, compared to $2.0 million and $5.4 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively, within compensation and benefits expense on the condensed consolidated statements of income. As of September 30, 2025, $5.4 million of total unrecognized compensation cost for awards of RSUs is expected to be recognized over the grants' remaining weighted average vesting period of 1.7 years.

The number of PSUs that vest depends on the Company's performance over a three-year period with respect to metrics set in the applicable award agreements. Between 0% and 200% of the target number of units outstanding as of September 30, 2025, may vest at the end of their respective performance periods based (i) 25% against the predetermined internal Company performance goal "run-rate" ROAE, (ii) 25% against the Company's performance ranking for "run-rate" ROAE among a peer

group of commercial mortgage REIT companies, (iii) 25% against the predetermined internal Company performance goal for change in book value per share, and (iv) 25% against the Company's performance ranking for change in book value per share among a peer group of commercial mortgage REIT companies. The commercial mortgage REIT peer group used to measure relative "core" ROAE, "run-rate" ROAE and change in book value per share includes publicly traded commercial mortgage REITs, which the Company believes derive the majority of their revenues from commercial real estate balance sheet lending activities and meet certain market capitalization criteria.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company recognized $(0.2) million and $0.1 million of compensation expense associated with the PSUs, respectively, compared to $0.6 million and $0.8 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively, within compensation and benefits expenses on the condensed consolidated statements of income. As of September 30, 2025, $2.7 million of total unrecognized compensation cost for awards of PSUs is expected to be recognized over the grants' remaining weighted average vesting period of 1.9 years.

**Note 13. Income Taxes**

The Company has elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Code for U.S. federal income tax purposes. As long as the Company qualifies as a REIT, the Company generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income taxes on that portion of its income that it distributes to its stockholders if it annually distributes at least 90% of its REIT taxable income, without regard to the deduction for dividends paid and excluding net capital gains, and does not engage in prohibited transactions. The Company intends to distribute 100% of its REIT taxable income and to continue to comply with all requirements to qualify as a REIT. The majority of states also recognize the Company's REIT status. The Company's TRS files a separate federal tax return and is fully taxed as a standalone U.S. C-corporation. It is assumed that the Company will retain its REIT status and will incur no REIT-level taxation as it intends to comply with the REIT regulations and annual distribution requirements.

Based on the Company's evaluation, it has been concluded that there are no significant uncertain tax positions requiring recognition in the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements of a contingent tax liability for uncertain tax positions. Additionally, there were no amounts accrued for penalties or interest as of, or during, the periods presented in these condensed consolidated financial statements.

**Note 14. Earnings (Loss) Per Share**

The following table presents a reconciliation of the earnings and shares used in calculating basic and diluted earnings per share for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, and 2024:

| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Diluted | $(0.01) | $(0.69) | $(0.59) | (3.53) |

---

Diluted earnings per share is calculated under both the two-class method and treasury stock method, and the more dilutive amount is reported. The computation of diluted earnings per share is also based on the incremental shares that would be outstanding assuming the settlement of RSUs. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, 1,270,608 and 881,423 of weighted-average unvested RSUs, respectively, were excluded from the dilutive earnings per share denominator, as their inclusion would be antidilutive. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, 623,424 of weighted-average unvested RSUs were excluded from the dilutive earnings per share denominator, as their inclusion would be antidilutive. For the three months ended September 30, 2024, under both the two-class method and the treasury stock method no shares were included in the dilutive earnings per share denominator, as their inclusion would have been antidilutive.

outstanding assuming the settlement of PSUs. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, and 2024, under both the two-class method and treasury stock method no additional weighted-average unvested PSUs were included in the dilutive earnings per share denominator, as their inclusion would be antidilutive. As of September 30, 2025, and 2024, there were no incremental shares of unvested PSUs.

**Note 15. Segment Reporting**

The Company generally derives its revenues from directly originating, investing in and managing senior floating-rate commercial mortgage loans and other debt and debt-like commercial real estate investments, which largely includes interest income, net of premium amortization and discount accretion, from its investment portfolio of mortgage loans held-for-investment. The Company's investment portfolio is subject to market risks, primarily credit risk and changes in interest rates. The Company mitigates these risks by seeking to originate or acquire assets of higher quality at appropriate rates of return given anticipated and unanticipated losses, by employing a comprehensive review and selection process and by proactively monitoring its investment portfolio.

The Company's investment portfolio is managed as a whole, and resources are allocated, and financial performance is assessed by the Company's Chief Executive Officer, its chief operating decision maker, or the CODM, based on total assets reported on the consolidated balance sheet and net (loss) income reported on the consolidated statement of comprehensive (loss) income. The Company's CODM views consolidated expense information related to interest expense, provision for credit losses, compensation and benefits expense, servicing expenses and other operating expenses to be significant. Consolidated comprehensive (loss) income is also used by the CODM to monitor actual results and benchmarking to that of its peers. Investment decisions are assessed collectively by the CODM, based on the inputs discussed above. Accordingly, the Company consists of a single operating and reportable segment and the condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto are presented as a single reportable segment.

**Note 16. Subsequent Events**

Events subsequent to September 30, 2025, were evaluated through the date these condensed consolidated financial statements were issued and no other additional events were identified requiring further disclosure in these condensed consolidated financial statements.

**Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations**

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as well as our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.

**Our Company**

Granite Point Mortgage Trust Inc. is an internally-managed real estate finance company that focuses primarily on directly originating, investing in and managing senior floating-rate commercial mortgage loans and other debt and debt-like commercial real estate investments. Our common stock is listed on the New York Stock Exchange, or NYSE, under the symbol "GPMT." Our investment objective is to preserve our stockholders' capital while generating attractive risk-adjusted returns over the long term, primarily through dividends derived from current income produced by our investment portfolio. We operate as a REIT, as defined under the Code. We also operate our business in a manner intended to maintain our exclusion from registration under the Investment Company Act. We operate our business as one segment.

**<u>Recent Developments</u>**

***Macroeconomic Environment***

The past several quarters were characterized by continued volatility in the global securities markets. Volatility was likely driven by investor concerns over tariffs, inflation, elevated interest rates, escalating trade tensions, slowing economic growth, political and regulatory uncertainty and geopolitical conditions. During the year, financial institutions were affected by certain events which also contributed to global markets volatility, diminished liquidity and credit availability.

On September 17, 2025, the Federal Reserve reduced interest rates by 25 basis points, although the timing, direction and extent of any future interest rate changes remained uncertain and interest rates remained at an elevated level. Absent other factors, our business model is such that higher interest rates should generally correlate to higher net interest income. However, interest rates have remained elevated for an extended period of time, adversely affecting our existing borrowers and the cost of financing their properties. Continued higher interest rates may further impact our borrowers and lead to non-performance, as well as dampen consumer spending and slow corporate profit growth, which may negatively impact the collateral underlying certain of our loans. Higher interest rates have adversely impacted, and may continue to adversely impact, commercial real estate property values. It remains difficult to predict the full impact of recent events, interest rate fluctuation, and inflation on macroeconomic conditions and our business.

On April 2, 2025, the U.S. presidential administration initiated significant changes to U.S. tariff policy, with the specific policies changing multiple times since that date. The initial announcement and subsequent related announcements had and continue to have global repercussions, causing capital market uncertainty worldwide. The impact from these changes to U.S. trade policy on commercial real estate remains uncertain, and it is challenging to predict the impact on our business. Tariffs have had and could continue to have an inflationary effect, slow economic growth, result in rising interest rates, and increase unemployment, all of which could decrease demand for space, and the attractiveness of commercial real estate to investors.

***Office Property Market***

The office property market has experienced higher vacancies, slower leasing activity, and tenant reevaluation of space needs, largely due to remote and hybrid work arrangements. These factors coupled with tariffs, inflation, elevated interest rates and limited market liquidity have created a high level of uncertainty with respect to property values. These dynamics have stressed certain borrowers' ability and willingness to support their properties and perform in accordance with their loan terms. Given this uncertainty, it remains difficult to predict the effect these challenging conditions may have on the office property market, our borrowers, their performance under the terms of our loans secured by office properties and our financial results.

**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 presented on a GAAP basis, dividends declared on common stock, Distributable Earnings and book value per share of common stock. For the three months ended September 30, 2025, we recorded a GAAP net (loss) per basic common share of $(0.01), declared a cash dividend of $0.05 per share of common stock and reported Distributable (Loss) of $(0.40) per basic common share. Our book value as of September 30, 2025, was $7.94 per share of common stock, inclusive of $(2.82) per share of total CECL reserves.

As further described below, Distributable Earnings is a "non-GAAP financial measure." 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 loan portfolio and operations. In addition, Distributable Earnings is a performance metric we consider, along with other measures, when declaring our common stock dividends.

***Distributable Earnings (Loss)***

In order to maintain our status as a REIT, we are required to distribute at least 90% of our taxable income to stockholders, subject to certain distribution requirements. Distributable Earnings (Loss) is intended to over time serve as a general, though imperfect, proxy for our taxable income. As such, Distributable Earnings (Loss) is considered a key indicator of our ability to generate sufficient income to pay dividends on our common stock, which is the primary focus of income-oriented investors who comprise a meaningful segment of our stockholder base. We believe providing Distributable Earnings (Loss) on a supplemental basis to our net income (loss) and cash flow from operating activities, as determined in accordance with GAAP, is helpful to stockholders in assessing the overall operating performance of our business.

For reporting purposes, we define Distributable Earnings (Loss) as net income (loss) attributable to our stockholders, computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding: (i) non-cash equity compensation expenses; (ii) depreciation and amortization; (iii) any unrealized gains (losses) or other similar non-cash items that are included in net income (loss) for the applicable reporting period (regardless of whether such items are included in other comprehensive income or in net income (loss) for such period); and (iv) certain non-cash items and one-time expenses. Distributable Earnings (Loss) may also be adjusted from time to time for reporting purposes to exclude one-time events pursuant to changes in GAAP and certain other material non-cash income or expense items approved by a majority of our independent directors. The exclusion of depreciation and amortization from the calculation of Distributable Earnings (Loss) only applies to debt investments related to real estate to the extent we foreclose upon the property or properties underlying such debt investments.

While Distributable Earnings (Loss) excludes the impact of the unrealized non-cash current provision for credit losses, we expect to only recognize such potential credit losses in Distributable Earnings (Loss) if and when such amounts are deemed non-recoverable. This is generally at the time a loan is repaid, or in the case of foreclosure, when the underlying asset is sold, but non-recoverability may also be concluded if, in our determination, it is nearly certain that all amounts due will not be collected. The realized loss amount reflected in Distributable Earnings (Loss) will equal the difference between the cash received, or expected to be received, and the carrying value of the asset, and is reflective of our economic experience as it relates to the ultimate realization of the loan. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, we recorded a (benefit from) provision for credit losses of $(1.6) million and $13.1 million, respectively, which has been excluded from Distributable Earnings (Loss), consistent with other unrealized gains (losses) and other non-cash items pursuant to our existing policy for reporting Distributable Earnings (Loss) referenced above. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, we recorded $(2.2) million and $(5.7) million, respectively, in depreciation and amortization on REO and related intangibles, which has been excluded from Distributable Earnings (Loss) consistent with other unrealized gains (losses) and other non-cash items pursuant to our existing policy for reporting Distributable Earnings (Loss) referenced above.

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

We believe it is useful to our stockholders to present Distributable Earnings (Loss) Before Realized Gains and Losses, a non-GAAP measure, to reflect our run-rate operating results as (i) our operating results are mainly comprised of net interest income earned on our loan investments net of our operating expenses, which comprise our ongoing operations, (ii) it helps our stockholders in assessing the overall run-rate operating performance of our business, and (iii) it has been a useful reference related to our common dividend as it is one of the factors we and our Board of Directors consider when declaring the dividend. We believe that our stockholders use Distributable Earnings (Loss) and Distributable Earnings (Loss) Before Realized Gains

------

and Losses, or a comparable supplemental performance measure, to evaluate and compare the performance of our company and our peers.

**Loan Portfolio Overview**

Our business model is mainly focused on directly originating, investing in and managing senior floating-rate commercial mortgage loans and other debt and debt-like commercial real estate investments. As a result of this strategy, our operating

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#ie37ff5df5919453b98d6903e42ed7326_13)</u>

performance is subject to overall market demand for commercial real estate loan products and other debt and debt-like commercial real estate investments. We place emphasis on diversifying our investment portfolio across geographical regions and local markets, property types, borrowers and loan structures. We do not limit our loan originations by geographical area or property type so that we may develop a well-diversified investment portfolio.

Interest-earning assets include our 100% loan investment portfolio. At September 30, 2025, our loan portfolio was comprised of 44 investments, of which 43 were senior first mortgage loans totaling $1.8 billion of commitments with an unpaid principal balance of $1.7 billion, and one subordinate loan totaling $13.0 million in commitments and unpaid principal balance. At September 30, 2025, the weighted average risk rating of our loan portfolio was 2.8 as compared to 3.1 at December 31, 2024, weighted by total unpaid principal balance.

We may hold REO as a result of taking title to a loan's collateral. As of September 30, 2025, we held two REO office properties with an aggregate carrying value of $105.5 million, inclusive of $10.0 million of intangible assets included in other assets and $(0.2) million of unfavorable lease liabilities in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

During the three months ended September 30, 2025, we funded $12.7 million under existing loan commitments and loan upsizes. We realized $(109.7) million in aggregate reductions in portfolio unpaid principal balance from loan repayments, paydowns, amortization and resolutions. See Note 3 — *Loans Held-for-Investment, Net of Allowance for Credit Losses* to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for further detail.

(1)Cash coupon does not include origination or exit fees. Weighted average cash coupon excludes fixed rate loans and impact of loans placed on nonaccrual status.

(2)Yield includes net origination fees and exit fees, but does not include future fundings, and is expressed as a monthly equivalent. Weighted average yield excludes fixed rate loans and impact of loans on nonaccrual status.

(3)Stabilized loan-to-value ratio at origination, or stabilized LTV, is calculated as the fully funded loan amount (plus any financing that is *pari passu* with or senior to such loan), including all contractually provided for future fundings, divided by the as stabilized value (as determined in conformance with USPAP) set forth in the original appraisal. As stabilized value may be based on certain assumptions, such as future construction completion, projected re-tenanting, payment of tenant improvement or leasing commissions allowances or free or abated rent periods, or increased tenant occupancies.

(1)"Senior" means a loan primarily secured by a first priority lien on commercial real property and related personal property and also includes, when applicable, any companion subordinate loans.

(2)Cash coupon does not include origination or exit fees. Weighted average cash coupon excludes fixed rate loans and impact of loans placed on nonaccrual status.

(3)Yield includes net origination fees and exit fees, but does not include future fundings, and is expressed as a monthly equivalent. Weighted average yield excludes fixed rate loans and impact of loans placed on nonaccrual status.

(4)Original term (years) is the initial maturity date at origination and does not include any extension options and has not been updated to reflect any subsequent extensions or modifications, if applicable.

(5)Initial loan-to-value ratio, or initial LTV at origination, is calculated as the initial loan amount (plus any financing that is *pari passu* with or senior to such loan) divided by the as is appraised value (as determined in conformance with the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice, or USPAP) as of the date of the loan was originated set forth in the original appraisal.

(6)Stabilized LTV is calculated as the fully funded loan amount (plus any financing that is *pari passu* with or senior to such loan), including all contractually provided for future fundings, divided by the as stabilized value (as determined in conformance with USPAP) set forth in the original appraisal. As stabilized value may be based on certain assumptions, such as future construction completion, projected re-tenanting, payment of tenant improvement or leasing commissions allowances or free or abated rent periods, or increased tenant occupancies.

(7)Loan was held on nonaccrual status as of September 30, 2025.

(8)Completed a modification with an effective date of July 12, 2024, that included an adjustment in rate to a fixed rate coupon rate of 5.75%, adjusted from a floating rate coupon of S+3.40%.

(9)Includes a $1.7 million unsecured note advanced to an existing borrower.

(10)As of September 30, 2025, the loan was in maturity default.

Most of our loans are structured with an initial maturity term, typically three years, and one or more (typically two) one-year extension options, which can be exercised by the borrower subject to meeting various extension conditions in accordance with the terms of the loan agreement. As part of our overall asset management strategy, we have in the past entered into, and may in the future enter into, loan modifications with some of our borrowers. These amendments may include, among other things, modifying or waiving certain performance or extension conditions as part of the overall agreement.

The map and charts below, weighted by carrying value, illustrate the geographic distribution and types of properties securing our loan portfolio as of September 30, 2025:

***Portfolio Management and Credit Quality***

We actively manage each loan investment from closing and initial funding through final repayment and assess the risk of credit deterioration by quarterly evaluating the performance of the underlying collateral properties. We also evaluate the macroeconomic environment, prevailing real estate fundamentals and local property market dynamics. Typically, our loan documents allow us, among other things, to receive regular property, borrower and guarantor financial statements; approve annual budgets and major tenant leases; and enforce loan covenants and remedies. In addition, we work with a leading commercial real estate loan servicer, which provides us with a fully-dedicated and experienced team to increase efficiency and

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#ie37ff5df5919453b98d6903e42ed7326_13)</u>

leverage our internal resources in servicing and asset managing our loan investments. Our internal team retains authority on all asset management decisions.

We maintain strong relationships and an active asset management dialogue with our borrowers. We have leveraged those relationships along with our team's experience to maximize the performance of our portfolio, including during periods of real estate market and economic uncertainty and volatility. While we generally believe that the principal amount of our loans is sufficiently protected by the underlying collateral value, there is a risk that we will not realize the entire principal amount of certain of our loan investments.

In addition to ongoing asset management, we review our entire portfolio quarterly, assess the performance of each loan and assign it a risk rating on a scale between "1" and "5," from least risk to greatest risk, respectively. The risk ratings are based on many factors, which include, but are not limited to, property type, geographic and local market dynamics, physical condition, leasing and tenant profile, projected cash flow, collateral performance, loan structure and exit plan, origination LTV, project sponsorship and other factors deemed appropriate. We evaluate these factors with respect to each loan investment on a case-by-case basis taking into consideration such loan's facts and circumstances at the time. The risk factors may be given different weightings depending on the specifics of each loan. See Note 3 - *Loans Held-for-Investment, Net of Allowance for Credit Losses* to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for a discussion regarding the risk rating methodology we use for our portfolio.

The following table allocates the unpaid principal balance and the carrying value balances based on our internal risk ratings as of September 30, 2025, and December 31, 2024:

As of September 30, 2025, the weighted average risk rating of our loan portfolio was 2.8, versus 3.1 as of December 31, 2024, weighted by unpaid principal balance. The change in the weighted average portfolio risk rating versus December 31, 2024, is mainly a result of resolutions of two previously risk-rated "5" loans.

***Risk-Rated "5" Loans***

During the three months ended September 30, 2025, as part of our quarterly risk rating process, we downgraded one first mortgage loan with an aggregate outstanding principal balance of $26.9 million and secured by a hotel property to a risk rating of "5." The loan is considered collateral dependent and has been placed on nonaccrual status as of September 30, 2025.

As of September 30, 2025, we had three loans that had a risk rating of "5" with an aggregate principal balance of $196.3 million, for which we recorded an allowance for credit losses of $86.5 million. These three loans were on nonaccrual status as of September 30, 2025. The performance of these assets, which include one office building, one retail property, and one hotel property, has been adversely affected to varying degrees by many factors, such as slower pace in leasing activity for office properties and other submarket dynamics, combined with a significant rise in interest rates contributing to a meaningful reduction in real estate transaction activity, capital markets volatility and limited market liquidity affecting property values and these borrowers' ability to either sell or refinance their loans, and other property specific factors. These loans are considered collateral-dependent and have been placed on nonaccrual status as of September 30, 2025.

***Other Portfolio Developments***

During the three months ended September 30, 2025, we resolved a senior loan secured by a multifamily student housing property located in Louisville, KY, via a property sale. The loan was on nonaccrual status with an unpaid principal balance of $50.0 million and a risk-rating of "5." As a result of the property sale, we recognized a write-off of $(19.4) million, which had been reserved for through a previously recorded allowance for credit losses of $22.6 million, resulting in a benefit from credit losses of $3.2 million.

During the three months ended September 30, 2025, we recognized a $3.4 million partial paydown on a nonaccrual loan secured by an office and retail property in Chicago, IL. The office portion of the property was sold, and the net sale proceeds were applied to the outstanding principal balance of the loan, which is now secured by the retail portion of the property. As of September 30, 2025, as a result of the partial paydown, we have reclassified the loan from office to retail, and the loan remained on nonaccrual status with a risk-rating of "5" and an unpaid principal balance of $76.3 million.

*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 may 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's maturity date, and/or deferral of scheduled payments. In exchange for a modification, we often receive a partial repayment of principal, an accrual of deferral 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.

During the three months ended September 30, 2025, we completed the modification of a senior loan secured by a hotel property located in Tempe, AZ. As of September 30, 2025, and December 31, 2024, the loan had a principal balance of $26.9 million and $25.2 million, respectively, and an amortized cost of $26.9 million and $25.1 million, respectively. The terms of the modification included, among other things, (i) a 2-month extension of the fully-extended maturity date to November 9, 2025, with one 6-month option to extend to May 9, 2026; and (ii) a $2.5 million upsizing of the total commitment of the loan, resulting in an aggregate $3.7 million upsizing of the total commitment when considering other modifications occurring during the twelve months ended September 30, 2025. Due to the uncertainty with respect to the collection of future principal and interest, the loan was deemed collateral dependent, assigned a risk rating of "5" and was placed on nonaccrual status. The senior loan was performing pursuant to its modified contractual terms as of September 30, 2025.

During the twelve months ended September 30, 2025, we completed the modification of a senior loan secured by a hotel property located in Minneapolis, MN. As of September 30, 2025, and December 31, 2024, the loan had a principal balance of $37.5 million and $52.6 million, respectively, and an amortized cost of $37.5 million and $52.7 million, respectively. The terms of the modification included, among other things, (i) a 3-year extension of the fully-extended maturity date to May 9, 2028, with one 12-month option to extend to May 9, 2029; (ii) a restructuring of the loan into a $37.0 million senior note and a subordinate note that was immediately charged off; and (iii) an accrued pay spread. As a result of the modification, we recognized a write-off of approximately $(15.4) million, which had been reserved for through a previously recorded allowance for credit losses. The senior note was performing pursuant to its modified contractual terms as of September 30, 2025.

***Portfolio Financing***

As of September 30, 2025, our portfolio financing consisted of repurchase and secured credit facilities collateralized by loans held-for-investment and securitized debt obligations collateralized by pools of loans held-for-investment issued in CRE CLOs. Our non-mark-to-market financing sources accounted for approximately 63.3% of portfolio loan-level financing as of September 30, 2025.

*Secured Repurchase Agreements*

As of September 30, 2025, we had repurchase facilities in place with three counterparties with aggregate outstanding borrowings of $0.4 billion, which financed a portion of our loans held-for-investment and real estate owned. As of September 30, 2025, the weighted average borrowing rate on our repurchase facilities was 7.0%, the weighted average advance rate was 57.7%, and the term to maturity ranged from 60 days to approximately 1.0 year, with a weighted average remaining maturity of 0.8 years.

The table below details our secured repurchase facilities as of September 30, 2025:

(1)The facilities are set to mature on the stated maturity date, unless extended pursuant to their terms.

(2)Unused capacity is not committed as of September 30, 2025.

(3)Collateral value includes real estate owned with a carrying value of $70.7 million.

(4)Collateral value includes real estate owned with a carrying value of $34.8 million.

Under our existing repurchase facilities, our counterparties may make margin calls as a result of a perceived decline in the value of our assets collateralizing the given facility due to a credit event or, under a limited number of our repurchase facilities, due to market events. To cover a margin call, we may transfer cash or other collateral to such a counterparty. Should the value of our assets suddenly decrease, significant margin calls on our mark-to-market repurchase facilities could result, causing an adverse change in our liquidity position.

*Commercial Real Estate Collateralized Loan Obligations*

We have financed certain pools of our loans through the issuance of CRE CLOs. At September 30, 2025, we held two CRE CLOs outstanding: GPMT 2021-FL4 and GPMT 2021-FL3, totaling $0.7 billion of outstanding borrowings, financing 26 of our existing senior loan investments with an aggregate principal balance, inclusive of restricted cash, totaling $0.9 billion. As of September 30, 2025, our CRE CLOs financed 50.0% of our total loan portfolio principal balance on a term-matched, non-recourse and non-mark-to-market basis with attractive cost of funds.

***Financial Covenants***

We are subject to a variety of financial covenants under our secured financing arrangements. The following represent the most restrictive financial covenants to which we are subject across our secured finance arrangements:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| **<u>Financial Covenant</u>** | **<u>Description</u>** | **<u>Value as of September 30, 2025</u>** |
| Cash Liquidity | Unrestricted cash liquidity of no less than the greater of $30.0 million and 5.0% of recourse indebtedness, which was $6.9 million. | Unrestricted cash of $62.7 million |
| Tangible Net Worth | Tangible net worth greater than the sum of (i) $0.6 billion and (ii) 75.0% of net cash proceeds of equity issuances after September 30, 2024. As the Company has not had any equity issuances after September 30, 2024, tangible net worth must be greater than $0.6 billion. | Tangible net worth of $0.7 billion |
| Leverage Ratios | Target asset leverage ratio cannot exceed 77.5% and total leverage ratio cannot exceed 80.0%. | Target asset leverage ratio of 69.5%; Total leverage ratio of 63.0% |
| Interest Coverage | Minimum interest coverage of no less than 1.2:1.0 from April 1, 2025, until and including December 31, 2025, and 1.3:1.0 thereafter. | Interest coverage of 1.3:1.0 |

---

We were in compliance with these financial covenants as of September 30, 2025.

***Leverage Ratios***

As of September 30, 2025, the total debt-to-equity ratio with respect to our loans held-for-investment was 1.9:1.0, and our recourse leverage ratio was 0.8:1.0. The following table represents our recourse leverage ratio and total leverage ratio as of September 30, 2025, and December 31, 2024. The period-over-period decrease in our leverage ratios was mainly related to lower borrowings due to loan repayments and paydowns.

(2)The total debt-to-equity ratio with respect to our loans held-for-investment, defined as total debt, net of cash, divided by total equity.

***Floating Rate Portfolio***

Our business strategy seeks to minimize our exposure to changes in interest rates by matching benchmark indices on our assets with those on our asset level borrowings. Accordingly, our business model is such that, in general, rising interest rates will increase our net interest income, while declining interest rates will decrease our net interest income, subject to the impact of interest rate floors on our floating rate assets and certain liabilities. As of September 30, 2025, 97.3% of our loan investments by principal balance earned a floating rate of interest and were financed with liabilities that pay interest on a floating rate basis, which resulted in an amount of net floating rate exposure, subject to the impact of interest rate floors on certain of our floating rate loan investments, of $0.5 billion. As of September 30, 2025, 2.7% of our loan investments by principal balance earned a fixed rate of interest and were financed with liabilities that pay interest on a floating rate basis, which resulted in a negative correlation to elevated interest rates on that amount of our financing.

The following table details our loan portfolio's net floating rate exposure as of September 30, 2025:

**Factors Affecting Our Operating Results**

The results of our operations are affected by a number of factors and primarily depend on, among other things, the level of our net interest income, the availability and our cost of financing, the market value of our assets, the credit performance of our assets and the supply of, and demand for, commercial real estate loans, other commercial real estate debt instruments and other financial assets available for investment in the market and available as a source of refinancing of our assets. Our interest income, which reflects the amortization of origination fees and direct costs, is recognized based on the contractual rate and the outstanding principal balance of the loans we originate. The objective of the interest method is to arrive at a periodic interest income that yields a level rate of return over the loan term. Interest rates vary according to the type of loan or security, conditions in the financial markets, creditworthiness of our borrowers, competition and other factors, none of which can be predicted with any certainty. Our operating results may also be impacted by credit losses in excess of initial anticipations or unanticipated credit events experienced by our borrowers. We continue to monitor the effects on each of these factors in light of the continued volatility in global markets, driven by investor concerns over inflation, elevated interest rates and geopolitical uncertainty, and how they will affect our operating results.

***Loan Originations***

Our business model is mainly focused on directly originating, investing in and managing senior floating-rate commercial mortgage loans and other debt and debt-like commercial real estate investments. As a result of this strategy, our operating performance is subject to overall market demand for commercial real estate loan products and other debt and debt-like commercial real estate investments. We manage originations and acquisitions of our target investments by diversifying our investment portfolio across geographical regions, local markets, property types, borrower types and loan structures. We do not limit our investments to any number of geographical areas or property types for our originations so that we develop a well-diversified investment portfolio. Additionally, our team has extensive experience originating and acquiring commercial real estate loans and other debt and debt-like commercial real estate investments, through a network of long-standing relationships with borrowers, sponsors and industry brokers. Investor concerns over inflation, elevated interest rates and geopolitical uncertainty have resulted in significant disruptions and volatility in financial markets, uncertainty about the overall macroeconomic outlook and a dislocation in the commercial real estate sector, including reduced borrower demand, wider credit spreads, higher lending rates, increased capitalization rates on properties and significantly lower transaction volume. This dislocation in capital markets and decline in real estate sale transaction and refinancing activities have negatively impacted, and will likely continue to negatively impact, the volume of loan repayments and prepayments on select property types (which are a significant source of our overall liquidity) and the volume of our originations of new loan investments.

***Financing Availability***

We are subject to the availability and cost of financing to successfully execute on our business strategy and generate attractive risk-adjusted returns to our stockholders. Much of our financing is in the form of repurchase agreements or other types of credit facilities provided to us by our lender counterparties. We mitigate this counterparty risk by seeking to diversify our lending partners, focusing on establishing borrowing relationships with strong counterparties and continuously monitoring them through a thoughtful approach to counterparty risk oversight. Additionally, as part of our broader risk management strategy, and to the extent available in the market, we finance our business through other means, which may include, but are not to be limited to, securitizations, note sales and issuance of secured and unsecured debt and equity instruments. We continue to actively explore additional types of funding facilities in order to further diversify our financing sources. Investor concerns over inflation trends, elevated interest rates and geopolitical uncertainty have resulted in significant disruptions and volatility in financial markets and uncertainty about the overall macroeconomic and capital markets outlook. These conditions have negatively impacted, and may continue to negatively impact, real estate and real estate capital markets, which could make it more difficult for us to obtain or maintain financing.

We finance pools of our commercial real estate loans through CRE CLOs, retaining subordinate securities in our investment portfolio. Our CRE CLOs are accounted for as financings with the non-retained securitized debt obligations recognized on our condensed consolidated balance sheets.

***Credit Risk***

We are subject to varying degrees of credit risk in connection with our target investments. The performance and value of our investments depend upon sponsors' ability to operate the properties that serve as our collateral so that they produce cash flows adequate to pay interest and principal due to us. In addition, we are exposed to the risks generally associated with the commercial real estate market, including variances in occupancy rates, capitalization rates, absorption rates and other macroeconomic factors beyond our control such as the level of market interest rates. We try to mitigate these risks by seeking to originate or acquire assets of higher quality at appropriate rates of return given anticipated and unanticipated losses, by employing a comprehensive review and selection process and by proactively monitoring our investment portfolio. Nevertheless, unanticipated credit losses, including as a result of inflation, high interest rates, capital markets volatility and geopolitical uncertainty, could occur that could adversely impact our operating results. Volatility in market interest rates may result in fluctuations in cash flows and values of properties securing our loans. As a result, there may exist the risk of non-performance on our floating-rate loans, and in the case of a significant increase in interest rates, the cash flows of the collateral properties

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#ie37ff5df5919453b98d6903e42ed7326_13)</u>

may not sufficiently cover debt service due under our loans, which may contribute to loan non-performance or, in certain cases, loan default.

The environmental, social and governance, or ESG, factors associated with our potential collateral and borrowers could also pose credit risks to us. We try to mitigate these risks by incorporating diligence practices into our investment process to identify significant ESG concerns related to a given investment. The nature and scope of our ESG diligence will vary based on the investment but may include a review of, among other things, energy management, pollution and contamination, accounting standards, bribery and corruption.

We employ a long-term, fundamental value-oriented investment strategy and we aim to, on a loan-by-loan basis, construct an investment portfolio that is well-diversified across property types, geographies and sponsors.

***Operating Expenses***

Our operating expenses, such as compensation costs and expenses related to managing our investment portfolio, may vary over time and are subject to a variety of factors, including overall economic and market environment, competitive market forces driving employee-related costs and other related factors.

***Allowance for Credit Losses***

Our operating results are also impacted by the allowance for credit losses we record for loans held-for-investment using the CECL methodology pursuant to ASU 2016-13.

***Changes in the Fair Value of Our Investments***

We intend to hold our target investments for the long-term and, as such, they are carried at an amortized cost on our condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Although we intend to hold our target investments for the long-term, we may occasionally invest in debt securities and classify them as available-for-sale, or AFS. Investments classified as AFS are carried at their fair value, with changes in fair value recorded through accumulated other comprehensive income, a component of stockholders' equity, rather than through earnings. We do not intend to hold any of our investments for trading purposes.

***Changes in Market Interest Rates***

Our primary interest rate exposures relate to the yield on our loans and other investments and the financing cost of our borrowings. Changes in interest rates have affected, and may continue to affect, our net interest income from loans and other investments. Interest rate fluctuations resulting in our interest and related expense exceeding interest and related income would result in operating losses for us. For further discussion of the potential impacts of changes in interest rates, see "*Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk — Interest Rate Risk*" in Part I, Item 3 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

***U.S. Trade Policy***

Changes in U.S. trade policy may affect our financial performance due to capital market uncertainty, rising construction, operational, and borrowing costs and changes in tenant and investor demands. Certain changes to U.S. trade policy may result in higher inflation, which could cause the Federal Reserve to pause further interest rate cuts or even consider interest rate increases. Static or increasing interest rates may negatively impact our portfolio investments and the financing of our assets. As a result, under certain market disruption scenarios, we may earn lower net interest income and revenues from real estate owned, incur higher operating expenses, and the cash flows of the collateral properties may not sufficiently cover debt service due under our loans, which may contribute to loan non-performance or, in certain instances, loan defaults.

**Comparison of the Three Months Ended September 30, 2025, and June 30, 2025**

***Net Interest Income***

The following table presents the components of interest income and interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2025, and June 30, 2025:

---

The majority of our interest-earning assets and liabilities have floating rates based on an index (e.g., one-month SOFR) plus a credit spread. As a result, our asset yields and cost of funds are impacted by changes in benchmark market short-term interest rates and credit spreads on investments and borrowings, as well as changes in the mix of our investment portfolio credit spreads due to new originations, loan amendments, additional fundings, upsizing transactions, repayments and when certain loans are placed on nonaccrual status.

***Interest Income***

Interest income for the three months ended September 30, 2025, decreased to $33.7 million from $33.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, mainly due to a lower average balance of our interest-earning assets as a result of loan repayments.

***Interest Expense***

Interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2025, decreased to $23.4 million from $25.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, mainly due to a lower average balance of our interest-bearing liabilities as a result of loan repayments and nonaccrual loan resolutions.

***Benefit from (Provision for) Credit Losses***

The following table presents the components of benefit from (provision for) credit losses for the three months ended September 30, 2025, and June 30, 2025:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| **(in thousands)** | **Three Months Ended** | **Three Months Ended** |
| Benefit from (provision for) credit losses on: | **September 30, 2025** | **June 30, 2025** |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Loans held-for-investment | $1274 | $(10760) |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Other liabilities | 369 | (224) |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Total benefit from (provision for) credit losses | $1643 | $(10984) |

---

During the three months ended September 30, 2025, we recorded a benefit from credit losses of $1.6 million as compared to a provision for credit losses of $(11.0) million for the three months ended June 30, 2025. The decrease in the provision for credit losses was primarily driven by favorable changes to the macroeconomic assumptions employed in estimating the general CECL reserve.

| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Annualized total operating expenses, excluding non-cash equity compensation and expenses from real estate owned operations, as a percentage of average total equity, excluding non-controlling interest | 4.0% | 4.7% |

---

We incur compensation and benefits expenses, servicing expenses related to the servicing of commercial real estate loans, expenses from REO operations and other operating expenses. Compensation and benefits expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2025, decreased primarily due to lower non-cash equity compensation expense amortization as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2025. Servicing expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2025, modestly increased as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2025. Expenses from REO operations for the three months ended September 30, 2025, increased primarily due to a full quarter of operations on the REO assets held, as compared to the prior quarter. Other operating expenses decreased as compared to the prior quarter mainly due to lower diligence and legal fees. Our operating expense ratio, excluding REO, decreased during the three months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2025, mainly due to lower average equity and lower total operating expenses during the three months ended September 30, 2025.

Our GAAP net (loss) attributable to common stockholders was $(0.6) million (or $(0.01) per basic weighted average share) for the three months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to GAAP net (loss) attributable to common stockholders of $(17.0) million (or $(0.35) per basic weighted average share) for the three months ended June 30, 2025. The increase in GAAP results was primarily due to a benefit from credit losses of $1.6 million during the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared to a provision for credit losses of $(11.0) million during the three months ended June 30, 2025.

***Interest Income***

Interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, decreased to $102.7 million from $146.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, mainly due to a lower average balance of our interest-earning assets and a decline in short-term interest rates.

***Interest Expense***

Interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, decreased to $76.3 million from $118.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, mainly due to a lower average balance on portfolio level financing and a decline in short-term interest rates.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, we recorded a provision for credit losses of $(13.1) million as compared to $(164.2) million during the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The decrease in the provision for credit losses was primarily driven by lower balances on nonaccrual loans that were individually assessed in accordance with ASU 2016-13 during the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2024.

We incur compensation and benefits expenses, servicing expenses related to the servicing of commercial real estate loans, expenses from REO operations and other operating expenses. Compensation and benefits and servicing expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, decreased primarily due to lower non-cash equity compensation expense amortization as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2024. Servicing expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, decreased primarily due to a lower portfolio balance as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2024. Expenses from real estate owned operations increased due to a higher average balance of REO assets held during the nine months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2024. Other operating expenses decreased as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2024, mainly due to lower expenses related to diligence fees, professional services and legal fees. Our operating expense ratio, excluding REO, increased during the nine months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2024, mainly due to lower average equity.

**Liquidity and Capital Resources**

*Capitalization*

To date, we have capitalized our business primarily through the issuance and sale of shares of our common and preferred stock, borrowings under our senior secured term loan facilities, secured financing facilities, issuance of CRE CLOs and the issuance and sale of convertible notes. As of September 30, 2025, our capitalization included $1.2 billion of loan-level financing. Our loan-level financing as of September 30, 2025, is generally term-matched or matures in 2026, and includes $0.4 billion of secured repurchase agreements, $0.7 billion of CRE CLO securitizations, which are term-matched to the underlying assets, non-recourse and non-mark-to-market, and a $79.3 million term-matched and non-mark-to-market secured credit facility.

See Note 5 – *Variable Interest Entities and Securitized Debt Obligations* and Note 6 – *Secured Financing Agreements* to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional details regarding our securitized debt obligations and our secured financing facilities, respectively.

*Leverage* 

From December 31, 2024, to September 30, 2025, our debt-to-equity ratio, defined as total debt, net of cash, divided by total equity, decreased from 2.2:1.0 to 1.9:1.0 mainly due to a reduction in outstanding debt. As part of our investment strategy, we plan to finance our target assets with a moderate amount of leverage, the level of which may vary based upon the particular characteristics of our portfolio and market conditions. To that end, subject to maintaining our qualification as a REIT and our exclusion from registration under the Investment Company Act, we intend to use borrowings to fund the origination or acquisition of our target investments. Given our focus on senior floating-rate mortgage loans, we currently expect that such leverage will be, on a total debt-to-equity ratio basis, within a range of 3.0:1.0 and 3.5:1.0; however, our leverage may vary and differ from our expectations depending on market conditions and any steps we may take to strengthen our balance sheet and enhance our liquidity position. The amount of leverage we deploy for our target investments depends upon our assessment of a variety of factors, which may include the anticipated liquidity and any changes in value of the investments in our portfolio, the potential for losses in our portfolio, the gap between the maturities of our assets and liabilities, the availability and cost of financing our investments, our opinion of the creditworthiness of our financing counterparties, the health of the U.S. economy and commercial real estate financing markets, our outlook for the level and volatility of interest rates, the slope of the yield curve, the credit quality of our investments, the collateral underlying our investments and our outlook for investment credit spreads relative to SOFR.

*Sources of Liquidity*

Our primary sources of liquidity include cash and cash equivalents on our condensed consolidated balance sheets, any approved but unused borrowing capacity under our financing facilities, the net proceeds of future public and private equity and debt offerings, payments of principal, including loan repayments and prepayments, loan sales, interest we receive on our portfolio of assets and cash generated from our operating results.

The following table sets forth our immediately available sources of liquidity as of September 30, 2025:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **(in thousands)** | **September 30, 2025** |
| Cash and cash equivalents | $62690 |
| Approved but unused borrowing capacity on financing facilities |  |
| Total | $62690 |

---

We have access to liquidity through public offerings of debt and equity securities, subject to market and other conditions. To facilitate such offerings, in August 2024, we filed a shelf registration statement with the SEC that is effective for a term of three years and expires in August 2027. The amount of securities to be issued pursuant to this shelf registration statement was not specified when it was filed. The securities covered by this registration statement include: (i) common stock, (ii) preferred stock, (iii) depositary shares, (iv) debt securities, (v) purchase contracts, and (vi) purchase units. The specifics of any future offerings, along with the use of proceeds of any securities offered, will be described in detail in a prospectus supplement, or other offering materials, at the time of any offering. At any time, and from time to time, we may be evaluating or pursuing one or more liquidity enhancing transactions, but we cannot provide any assurance if or when we will consummate any such transaction, or the terms thereof.

Although we generally intend to hold our target investments as long-term investments, we have opportunistically sold, and may again in the future sell, certain of our assets in order to manage our liquidity needs, to meet other operating objectives and to adapt to market conditions. We cannot predict the timing and impact of future sales of our assets, if any. Since many of our assets are financed with secured financing facilities and/or CRE CLOs, a significant portion of the proceeds from sales of our assets, prepayments and scheduled amortization would be used to repay balances under these financing arrangements.

We remain focused on actively managing our balance sheet and liquidity to best position us for the market environment, to satisfy our loan future funding and financing obligations and to make new investments, which we expect will cause us to take, and in some instances has already caused us to take, some or all of the following actions: raise capital from offerings of equity

and/or debt securities, on a public or private basis; borrow additional capital; post additional collateral; sell assets; and/or change our dividend practices, which we will continue to evaluate in respect of future quarters based upon customary considerations, including market conditions and distribution requirements to maintain our REIT status. At any given time and from time to time we may be evaluating or pursuing one or more transactions, including, but not limited to, loan sales, capital markets activities and other sources of funding, to improve our liquidity or to refinance our debt or may otherwise seek transactions to reduce our interest expense or leverage and extend our debt maturities, which transactions, depending on market conditions and other factors, could result in actual losses and/or otherwise negatively impact our results of operations in one or more periods.

*Liquidity Needs*

In addition to our loan origination activities and general operating expenses, our primary liquidity needs include interest and principal payments under our $1.2 billion of outstanding borrowings under our repurchase facilities, CRE CLOs, and secured credit facility; $75.6 million of unfunded loan commitments; and dividend distributions to our preferred and common stockholders, which are at the discretion of our board of directors.

*Financing Availability*

We are subject to the availability and cost of financing to successfully execute on our business strategy and generate attractive risk-adjusted returns to our stockholders. Much of our financing is in the form of repurchase facilities or other types of credit facilities provided to us by our lender counterparties. We mitigate this counterparty risk by seeking to diversify our lending partners, focusing on establishing borrowing relationships with strong counterparties and continuously monitoring them through a thoughtful approach to counterparty risk oversight. Additionally, as part of our broader risk management strategy, and to the extent available in the market, we finance our business through other means which may include, but not be limited to, CRE CLOs, note sales and the issuance of unsecured debt and equity instruments. We continue to actively explore additional types of funding facilities in order to further diversify our financing sources. Investor concerns over inflation trends, elevated interest rates and geopolitical uncertainty have resulted in significant disruptions in financial markets and uncertainty about the overall macroeconomic and capital markets outlook. These conditions have negatively impacted, and may continue to negatively impact, real estate fundamentals and real estate capital markets, which could make it more difficult for us to obtain or maintain financing.

The following table provides the maturities of our repurchase facilities, secured credit facility and securitized debt obligations, as of September 30, 2025, and December 31, 2024:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| **(in thousands)** | **September 30,<br>2025** | **December 31,<br>2024** |
| Within one year | $1176651 | $1279702 |
| One to three years | 17828 | 156607 |
| Three to five years |  | 36652 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Total | $1194479 | $1472961 |

---

*Cash Flows*

For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, our restricted and unrestricted cash and cash equivalents balance decreased approximately $40.6 million, to $73.9 million. The cash movements can be summarized by the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• *Cash flows from operating activities.* For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, operating activities decreased our cash balances by approximately $0.5 million, primarily driven by net interest income and REO revenues, partially offset by operating expenses and REO expenses.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• *Cash flows from investing activities*. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, investing activities increased our cash balances by approximately $266.0 million, primarily driven by repayments of loans held-for-investment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• *Cash flows from financing activities.* For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, financing activities decreased our cash balances by approximately $306.1 million, primarily driven by principal payments on repurchase facilities and securitized debt obligations.

**Dividends**

We generally intend to distribute substantially all of our taxable income each year (which does not necessarily equal net income as calculated in accordance with GAAP) to our stockholders to comply with the REIT provisions of the Code. In addition, our dividend practices may change. All distributions will be made at the discretion of our board of directors and will depend upon, among other things, our actual results of operations and liquidity. These results, and our ability to pay distributions, will be affected by various factors, including our taxable income, our financial condition, our maintenance of REIT status, restrictions related to our financing facilities, applicable law and other factors that our board of directors deems relevant.

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#ie37ff5df5919453b98d6903e42ed7326_13)</u>

**Inflation**

Nearly all of our assets and liabilities are interest rate sensitive in nature. As a result, interest rates and other factors typically influence our performance more than inflation does. However, changes in interest rates may correlate with inflation rates or changes in inflation rates. In response to the inflationary pressures, in 2022 and 2023, the Federal Reserve increased its benchmark overnight interest rates. While the Federal Reserve reduced its benchmark overnight interest rates in the second half of 2024 and the third quarter of 2025, they remain at elevated levels. Our condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP and our distributions will be determined by our board of directors consistent with our obligation to distribute to our stockholders at least 90% of our REIT taxable income on an annual basis in order to maintain our REIT qualification; in each case, our activities and balance sheet are measured with reference to historical cost and/or fair market value without considering inflation.

**Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk**

We seek to manage our risks related to the credit quality of our investments, interest rates, liquidity and market value while, at the same time, seeking to generate attractive risk-adjusted returns to our stockholders. While we are exposed to certain types of market risk in our business, we seek to actively manage them using our risk management infrastructure and philosophy centered around quantifying and measuring various market risks on a continuous basis. We seek to be fairly compensated through the returns we earn on our investments for taking those risks and focus on maintaining liquidity and capital levels consistent with the risks to which we are exposed. However, many of those risks have been magnified by the continuing economic disruption and capital markets volatility resulting from inflation, elevated interest rates, geopolitical uncertainty, global tariff policies and escalating global trade tensions, which have disrupted supply chains and material costs and have contributed to significant market volatility.

***Recent Market Conditions***

Due to the macroeconomic challenges driven by inflation trends, elevated interest rates and geopolitical uncertainty, most of our borrowers, sponsors, their tenants, the properties serving as collateral for our loan investments and the economy as a whole have been, and will likely continue to be, adversely affected. See *"Macroeconomic Environment"* in Part I, Item 2 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for further discussion of current market conditions.

***Credit Risk***

We are subject to varying degrees of credit risk in connection with holding a portfolio of our target investments. The performance and value of our investments depend upon the sponsors' ability to operate the properties that serve as our collateral so that they produce cash flows adequate to pay interest and principal due to us. We seek to manage credit risk by performing deep fundamental credit analysis of our potential investments, as well as seeking to originate or acquire assets of higher quality at appropriate rates of return given anticipated and unanticipated losses, by employing a comprehensive review and selection process and by proactively monitoring our investments. Credit risk is also addressed through our ongoing review, and our investment portfolio is monitored for variance from underwritten and expected results on a monthly basis, with more intense analysis and oversight done on a quarterly basis. Nevertheless, unanticipated credit losses, including as a result of inflation, elevated interest rates and geopolitical uncertainty, could occur and could adversely impact our operating results.

We employ a long-term, fundamental value-oriented investment strategy and we aim to, on a loan-by-loan basis, construct an investment portfolio that is well-diversified across property types, geographies and sponsors.

We maintain an active dialogue and strong relationships with our borrowers as part of our overall asset management strategy to maximize the performance of our portfolio, including during periods of volatility. While we generally believe that the principal amount of our loans is typically sufficiently protected by the underlying collateral value, there is a risk that we will not realize the entire principal amount of certain of our loan investments.

***Interest Rate Risk***

Our primary strategy is to originate, invest in and manage a portfolio of senior floating-rate commercial mortgage loans. As a result, the composition of our investments in general is such that rising interest rates increase our net income, while declining interest rates will decrease our net income, subject to the impact of contractual interest rate floors. From time to time, we may originate, acquire or otherwise hold fixed-rate investments, which may expose our operating results to the risks posed by fluctuations in interest rates, which we may choose to hedge, if we deem it prudent.

In response to inflationary pressures, the Federal Reserve raised its benchmark overnight interest rates on multiple occasions in 2022 and 2023. While the Federal Reserve reduced its benchmark overnight interest rates in the second half of 2024 and the third quarter of 2025, they remain high and how long they will remain at elevated levels remains uncertain. These higher interest rates have increased our interest expense, which may not be fully offset by any increases in interest income. In addition, these higher benchmark interest rates have increased our borrowers' interest payments, adversely affected commercial real estate property values and, for certain of our borrowers have contributed, and may continue to contribute, to loan non-performance, modifications, defaults, foreclosures and/or property sales, which has resulted, and may continue to result, in us realizing losses on our investments.

As of September 30, 2025, approximately 97.3% of our portfolio by principal balance earned a floating rate of interest. The remaining approximately 2.7% of our portfolio earned a fixed rate of interest. If interest rates were to decline, the value of these fixed-rate investments may increase, and if interest rates were to increase, the value of these fixed-rate investments may fall; however, the interest income generated by these investments would not be affected by fluctuations in market interest rates. The interest rates we pay under our current secured financing facilities and CRE CLOs are primarily floating rate, which generally, and with limited exceptions, are not subject to contractual interest rate floors. Accordingly, our interest expense generally increases as interest rates increase and decreases as interest rates decrease.

Our analysis of risks is based on our experience, estimates and assumptions. Actual economic conditions or our implementation of decisions may produce results that differ significantly from the estimates and assumptions used in our analyses.

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#ie37ff5df5919453b98d6903e42ed7326_13)</u>

The information presented in the following interest rate sensitivity table projects the potential impact of sudden parallel changes in interest rates on our financial results and financial condition over the next 12 months, based on our interest sensitive financial instruments at September 30, 2025. All changes in value are measured as the change from our September 30, 2025, financial position. All projected changes in annualized net interest income are measured as the change from our projected annualized net interest income based off current performance returns. Actual results of changes in annualized net interest income may differ from the information presented in the sensitivity table below due to differences between the dates of actual interest rate resets in our loan investments and our floating rate interest-bearing liabilities, and the dates as of which the analysis was performed.

---

| | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| | **Changes in Interest Rates** | **Changes in Interest Rates** | **Changes in Interest Rates** | **Changes in Interest Rates** |
| **(in thousands)** | **-100 bps** | **-50 bps** | **+50 bps** | **+100 bps** |
| Change in value of financial position: |  |  |  |  |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Loans held-for-investment | $536 | $286 | $(297) | $(595) |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Repurchase facilities | (179) | (91) | 91 | 182 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Securitized debt obligations | (282) | (141) | 282 | 282 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Secured financing facility | (33) | (16) | 17 | 33 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Total net assets | $42 | $38 | $93 | $(98) |
|  | **-100 bps** | **-50 bps** | **+50 bps** | **+100 bps** |
| Change in annualized net interest income: | $(1388) | $(1102) | $1353 | $2706 |

---

The interest rate sensitivity table quantifies the potential changes in annualized net interest income and portfolio value, should interest rates immediately change. The interest rate sensitivity table presents the estimated impact of interest rates instantaneously rising 50 and 100 basis points, and falling 50 and 100 basis points. The cash flows associated with the portfolio for each rate change are calculated based on assumptions with respect to interest rates and size of the portfolio. Assumptions made on the interest rate sensitive liabilities include anticipated interest rates, collateral requirements as a percentage of borrowings and amount and term of borrowing.

Certain assumptions have been made in connection with the calculation of the information set forth in the foregoing interest rate sensitivity table and, as such, there can be no assurance that assumed events will occur or that other events will not occur that would affect the outcomes. The base interest rate scenario assumes interest rates at September 30, 2025. The analysis utilizes assumptions and estimates based on management's judgment and experience. Furthermore, while we generally expect to retain such assets and the associated interest rate risk to maturity, future originations, acquisitions and sales of assets could materially change our interest rate risk profile.

The information set forth in the interest rate sensitivity table above and all related disclosures constitutes forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimated in the foregoing interest rate sensitivity table.

***Market Value Risk***

We intend to hold our target investments for the long-term and, as such, they are carried at an amortized cost on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. However, we may occasionally classify some of our investments as AFS. Investments classified as AFS are carried at their fair value, with changes in fair value recorded through accumulated other comprehensive income, a component of stockholders' equity, rather than through earnings. The estimated fair value of such investments may fluctuate primarily due to changes in interest rates, overall market environment and liquidity and other factors. As market volatility increases or liquidity decreases, the market value of the investments may be adversely impacted. We do not intend to hold any of our investments for trading purposes.

***Borrower Performance***

In addition to the risks related to fluctuations in cash flows and investment values associated with movements in interest rates, there is also the risk of borrower non-performance on our floating-rate investments. If interest rates were to significantly rise, it is possible that the increased debt service costs may negatively impact operating cash flows on properties securing our commercial real estate loan investments, resulting in potential non-performance of our borrowers or, in severe cases, default. This risk is partially mitigated by various factors we consider during our rigorous underwriting and loan structuring process, which in certain cases include a requirement for our borrower to purchase an interest rate cap contract.

***Capital Markets Risk***

As a REIT, we are required to distribute a significant portion of our taxable income annually, which constrains our ability to accumulate significant operating cash flow and therefore requires us to utilize capital markets, both debt and equity, to finance our business. As a result, we are exposed to risks related to the equity capital markets and our related ability to raise capital

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#ie37ff5df5919453b98d6903e42ed7326_13)</u>

through the issuance of our common stock or other equity instruments. We are also exposed to risks related to the debt capital markets, and our related ability to finance our business through borrowings under credit facilities or other debt instruments, such as securitizations or unsecured debt. We seek to mitigate these risks by monitoring the debt and equity capital markets to inform our decisions on the amount, timing and terms of capital we raise.

Various factors, such as elevated interest rates, inflation, tariffs, geopolitical tensions and volatility in public equity and fixed income markets have led to increased cost and decreased availability of capital, which may adversely impact the ability of commercial property owners to service their debt obligations and refinance their loans as they mature and/or our ability to access capital markets.

***Real Estate Risk***

Our business strategy focuses on commercial real estate related debt investments. As a result, we will be exposed to the risks generally associated with the commercial real estate market, including occupancy rates, capitalization rates, absorption rates and other macroeconomic factors beyond our control.

Additionally, commercial real estate debt investments may be affected by a number of factors, including international, national, regional and local economic and real estate conditions, changes in business trends of specific industry segments, property construction characteristics, demographic factors and changes to laws and regulations, including additional restrictions or requirements on the development of commercial real estate intended to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and climate change. Any combination of these factors may affect the value of real estate collateral for investments within our investment portfolio and the potential proceeds available to a borrower to repay the underlying loans, which could cause us to suffer losses. We seek to manage these risks through our rigorous and fundamentally driven underwriting and investment management processes.

***Liquidity Risk***

Our liquidity risk is principally associated with our financing of longer-maturity investments with shorter-term borrowings, such as repurchase facilities. Should the value of our investments serving as collateral for our repurchase facilities significantly decrease, our lenders may exercise their margin call rights, causing an adverse change in our liquidity position. If we fail to resolve such margin calls when due, the lenders may exercise their rights under such repurchase facilities, including requiring payment by us of our aggregate outstanding financing obligations and/or taking ownership of the collateral securing such obligations, potentially on an unfinanced basis, thereby reducing our available liquidity. Additionally, if one or more of our financing counterparties should choose not to provide ongoing funding, including with respect to future funding obligations on existing loans financed with such counterparties, our ability to finance our investments and related future funding obligations would possibly decline or exist at less advantageous terms.

***Extension Risk***

We manage our assets based on a variety of assumptions and estimates, including among others, assumptions regarding the rate at which the borrowers will prepay our loans or extend. If prepayment rates decrease in a rising interest rate environment or extension options are exercised, the life of our loan investments could extend beyond the term of the secured financing arrangements. The current macroeconomic, commercial real estate and capital markets disruptions have resulted in, and will likely continue to result in, a decrease in prepayment rates and an increase in the number of our borrowers who exercise loan extension options. In addition, higher interest rates imposed by the Federal Reserve have led to, and may continue to lead to, a decrease in the pace of loan repayment and an increase in the number of our borrowers who exercise loan extension options. This could have a negative impact on our results of operations. In some situations, we may be forced to sell assets to maintain adequate liquidity, which could cause us to incur losses.

As part of our overall asset management strategy, we have in the past entered into, and may in the future enter into, loan modifications with some of our borrowers. These amendments may include, among other things, modifying or waiving certain performance or extension conditions as part of the overall agreement, which are often coupled with additional equity or other forms of credit support from the sponsor. We work closely with our lending counterparties when negotiating and entering into loan modifications with our borrowers to ensure we maintain financing on modified assets. There can be no assurance that going forward we will be able to maintain financing on modified loans.

***Risk Management***

To the extent consistent with maintaining our REIT qualification, we seek to manage risk exposure by closely monitoring our portfolio and actively managing the financing, interest rate, credit and other risks associated with holding a portfolio of our target investments. Generally, we:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• manage our portfolio with focus on diligent, investment-specific market review, enforcement of loan and security rights and timely execution of disposition strategies;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• actively employ portfolio-wide and investment-specific risk measurement and management processes in our daily operations, including utilizing risk management tools; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• seek to manage credit risk through our rigorous underwriting due diligence process prior to origination or acquisition of our target investments, and through the use of non-recourse financing when and where available and appropriate.

**Item 4. Controls and Procedures**

A review and evaluation was performed by our management, including our Chief Executive Officer, or CEO, and Chief Financial Officer, or CFO, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based on that review and evaluation, the CEO and CFO have concluded that our current disclosure controls and procedures, as designed and implemented, were effective as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Although our CEO and CFO have determined our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, a control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that it will detect or uncover failures within the Company to disclose material information otherwise required to be set forth in the reports we submit under the Exchange Act.

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended September 30, 2025, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
