Apollo Commercial Real Estate Finance, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
Note 1 – Organization
Apollo Commercial Real Estate Finance, Inc. (together with its consolidated subsidiaries, is referred to throughout this report as the "Company," "ARI," "we," "us" and "our") is a corporation that has elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust ("REIT") for U.S. federal income tax purposes and primarily originates, acquires, invests in and manages performing commercial first mortgage loans, subordinate financings, and other commercial real estate related debt investments. These asset classes are referred to as our target assets.
We were formed in Maryland on June 29, 2009, commenced operations on September 29, 2009 and are externally managed and advised by ACREFI Management, LLC (the "Manager"), an indirect subsidiary of Apollo Global Management, Inc. (together with its subsidiaries, "Apollo").
We elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, commencing with the taxable year ended December 31, 2009. To maintain our tax qualification as a REIT, we are required to distribute at least 90% of our taxable income, excluding net capital gains, to stockholders and meet certain other asset, income, and ownership tests.
Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include our accounts and those of our consolidated subsidiaries. All intercompany amounts have been eliminated. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Our most significant estimates include current expected credit loss ("CECL") allowances. Actual results may differ from estimates.
These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 ("Annual Report"), as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly our financial position, results of operations and cash flows have been included. Our results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year or any other future period.
We currently operate in one reporting segment.
Risks and Uncertainties
Although more normalized activities have resumed and there has been improved global economic activity due to global and domestic vaccination efforts, there are still various uncertainties around the impact coronavirus ("COVID-19") and its variants had and will continue to have on our business and the economy as a whole, including longer-term macroeconomic effects on supply chains, inflation and labor shortages. For example, in response to recent inflationary pressure, the U.S. Federal Reserve and other global central banks have raised interest rates in 2022 and 2023 and have indicated the potential for further interest rate increases. We believe the estimates used in preparing our financial statements and related footnotes are reasonable and supportable based on the best information available to us as of June 30, 2023. The uncertainty over the ultimate impact of COVID-19 and its variants, supply chain disruptions and labor shortages, rising inflation and increases in interest rates on the global economy generally and our business in particular may materially impact the accuracy of the estimates and assumptions used in the financial statements and related footnotes and, as a result, actual results may vary significantly from estimates.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU 2020-04 "Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848) – Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting" ("ASU 2020-04"). ASU 2020-04 provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to debt instruments, derivatives, and other contracts that reference London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") or other reference rates expected to be discontinued as a result of reference rate reform. In December 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-06 "Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Deferral of Sunset Date of Topic 848 ("ASU 2022-06") which deferred the sunset date to December 31, 2024. As prescribed by the optional expedients within ASU 2020-04, we have accounted for applicable modified contracts that incorporate alternative benchmarks as if they are not substantially different. We will continue to apply such expedients or exceptions related to
9

modifications for certain of our commercial mortgage loans and debt agreements as a result of reference rate reform. The application of ASU 2020-04 has not had a material impact, nor is it expected to have a material impact, on our consolidated financial statements.
Note 3 – Fair Value Disclosure
GAAP establishes a hierarchy of valuation techniques based on the observability of the inputs utilized in measuring financial instruments at fair value. Market-based or observable inputs are the preferred source of values, followed by valuation models using management's assumptions in the absence of market-based or observable inputs. The three levels of the hierarchy as noted in Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 820, "Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures" are described below:
Level I — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level II — Prices are determined using other significant observable inputs. Observable inputs are inputs that other market participants would use in pricing a security. These may include quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk and others.
Level III — Prices are determined using significant unobservable inputs. In situations where quoted prices or observable inputs are unavailable (for example, when there is little or no market activity for an investment at the end of the period), unobservable inputs may be used.
While we anticipate that our valuation methods are appropriate and consistent with valuation methods used by other market participants, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different estimate of fair value at the reporting date. We use inputs that are current as of the measurement date, which may include periods of market dislocation, during which price transparency may be reduced.
The fair values of foreign exchange ("Fx") forwards are determined by comparing the contracted forward exchange rate to the current market exchange rate. The current market exchange rates are determined by using market spot rates, forward rates and interest rate curves for the underlying countries. Our Fx forwards are classified as Level II in the fair value hierarchy.
The fair value of our interest rate cap was determined by using the market standard methodology of discounting the future expected cash receipts that occur when variable interest rates rise above the strike rate of the interest rate cap. The variable interest rates used in the calculation of projected receipts on the interest rate cap were based on a third-party expert's expectation of future interest rates derived from observable market interest rate curves and volatility. Our interest rate cap was classified as Level II in the fair value hierarchy and expired on June 15, 2023.
The following table summarizes the levels in the fair value hierarchy into which our assets and liabilities with recurring fair value measurements were categorized as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 ($ in thousands):

| Fair Value as of June 30, 2023 |  | Fair Value as of December 31, 2022

Non-recurring Fair Value Measurements
We are required to record real estate owned, a nonfinancial asset, at fair value on a non-recurring basis in accordance with ASC 820. Under ASC 820, we may utilize the income, market or cost approach (or combination thereof) to determine the fair value of real estate owned. We deem the inputs used in these approaches to be significant unobservable inputs. Therefore, we classify the fair value of real estate owned within Level III of the fair value hierarchy.
On March 31, 2023, we acquired legal title of a hotel property in Atlanta, GA ("Atlanta Hotel") through a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure. At the time of acquisition, we determined the fair value of the net real estate assets to be $75.0 million, using a combination of market and income approach. We utilized a discount rate and capitalization rate of 10.5% and 9.5%, respectively. No impairments have been recorded as of June 30, 2023.
On August 3, 2022, we acquired legal title of a multifamily development property located in downtown Brooklyn, NY ("Brooklyn Development") through a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure. We determined the fair value of the real estate assumed to be
10

$270.1 million, based on the market value of the land at the time of acquisition. No impairments have been recorded as of June 30, 2023 or December 31, 2022.
On May 24, 2021, we acquired legal title to a full-service luxury hotel in Washington D.C. ("D.C. Hotel") through a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure, which is classified as real estate owned on our consolidated balance sheets. We assumed the D.C. Hotel's assets and liabilities, including a $110.0 million mortgage loan. We repaid the mortgage loan at par and hold the property unlevered. At the time of acquisition, we determined the fair value of the real estate assets to be $154.3 million. No impairments have been recorded as of June 30, 2023 or December 31, 2022.

Risk Rating
We assess the risk factors of each loan and assign a risk rating based on a variety of factors, including, without limitation, loan to value ("LTV") ratio, debt yield, property type, geographic and local market dynamics, physical condition, cash flow volatility, leasing and tenant profile, loan structure and exit plan, and project sponsorship. This review is performed quarterly. Based on a 5-point scale, our loans are rated "1" through "5," from less risk to greater risk, which ratings are defined as follows:
1. Very low risk
2. Low risk
3. Moderate/average risk
4. High risk/potential for loss: a loan that has a risk of realizing a principal loss
5. Impaired/loss likely: a loan that has a high risk of realizing principal loss, has incurred principal loss, or an impairment has been recorded

(1)$4.8 million and $4.3 million of the General CECL Allowance for 2023 and 2022, respectively, is excluded from this table because it relates to unfunded commitments and has been recorded as a liability under accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities in our condensed consolidated balance sheets.
CECL
In accordance with ASU 2016-13 "Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326) - Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments", which we refer to as the "CECL Standard," we record allowances for loans and held-to-maturity debt securities that are deducted from the carrying amount of the assets to present the net carrying value of the amounts expected to be collected on the assets. We record loan specific allowances as a practical expedient under the CECL Standard ("Specific CECL Allowance"), which we apply to assets that are collateral dependent and where the borrower or sponsor is experiencing financial difficulty. For the remainder of the portfolio, we record a general allowance ("General CECL Allowance", and together with the Specific CECL Allowance, "CECL Allowances") on a collective basis by assets with similar risk characteristics. We have elected to use the weighted average remaining maturity ("WARM") method in determining a General CECL Allowance for a majority of our portfolio. In the future, we may use other acceptable methods, such as a probability-of-default/loss-given-default method.
The following schedule illustrates changes in CECL Allowances f or the six months ended June 30, 2023 ($ in thousands):

(1)Loans evaluated for Specific CECL Allowance are excluded from General CECL Allowance pool.
(2)During the three months ended March 31, 2023, our General CECL Allowance increased by $4.4 million primarily due to an increase in our view of the remaining expected term of our loan portfolio. This increase was partially offset by the impact of portfolio seasoning and loan repayments and sales.
(3)During the three months ended June 30, 2023, our General CECL Allowance increased by $2.1 million primarily due to a more adverse macroeconomic outlook and an increase in our view of the remaining expected term of certain of our loans. This increase was partially offset by the impact of portfolio seasoning. Additionally, during the three months ended June 30, 2023, we recorded an increase of $141.5 million to our Specific CECL Allowance. The increase was related to two mezzanine loans secured by the same ultra-luxury property. Refer to discussion below.

(4)As of June 30, 2023, $82.0 million related to the most junior mezzanine loan secured by the ultra-luxury residential property was deemed unrecoverable. Accordingly, $82.0 million of previously recorded Specific CECL was written-off and recorded as a realized loss within net realized loss on investments in our June 30, 2023 condensed consolidated statement of operations. Refer to "Specific CECL Allowance" section below for further detail.

(1)Loans evaluated for Specific CECL Allowance are excluded from General CECL Allowance pool.
(2)During the three months ended March 31, 2022, a $30.0 million Specific CECL Allowance was recorded on a subordinate loan secured by an ultra luxury residential property in Manhattan, NY. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the General CECL Allowance decreased by $11.4 million primarily due to changes in expected loan repayment dates, as well as portfolio seasoning, which was partially offset by new loan originations.
(3)During the three months ended June 30, 2022, the $3.0 million net reversal of Specific CECL Allowance was comprised of (i) the reversal of $10.0 million of previously recorded allowance on a loan related to a multifamily development in Brooklyn, NY as a result of market rent growth and value created from development activities and (ii) a $7.0 million allowance recorded on a loan secured by a hotel in Atlanta, GA due to slower than expected recovery from COVID-19. General CECL Allowance increased by $2.1 million due to new loan originations and more adverse macroeconomic outlook, which was partially offset by portfolio seasoning.
General CECL Allowance
In determining the General CECL Allowance using the WARM method, an annual historical loss rate, adjusted for macroeconomic estimates, is applied to the amortized cost of an asset, or pool of assets, over each subsequent period for the assets' remaining expected life. We considered various factors including (i) historical loss experience in the commercial real estate lending market, (ii) timing of expected repayments and satisfactions, (iii) expected future funding, (iv) capital subordinate to us when we are the senior lender, (v) capital senior to us when we are the subordinate lender, and (vi) our current and future view of the macroeconomic environment for a reasonable and supportable forecast period. The CECL Standard requires the use of significant judgment to arrive at an estimated credit loss. There is significant uncertainty related to future macroeconomic conditions, including inflation, labor shortages and interest rates.
We derived an annual historical loss rate based on a commercial mortgage-backed securities ("CMBS") database with historical losses from 1998 through the second quarter of 2023 provided by a third party, Trepp LLC. We applied various filters to arrive at a CMBS dataset most analogous to our current portfolio from which to determine an appropriate historical loss rate. The annual historical loss rate was further adjusted to reflect our expectations of the macroeconomic environment for a reasonable and supportable forecast period. At the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, we adopted a shortened four quarter forecast period in response to heightened macroeconomic uncertainty brought by the pandemic. With the effects of the pandemic gradually easing in response to global and domestic vaccination efforts and other public safety measures, we reverted to a longer forecast period of six quarters effective December 31, 2022 and further extended to eight quarters effective March 31, 2023. In assessing the macroeconomic environment, we consider macroeconomic factors, including unemployment rate, commercial real estate prices, and market liquidity. We compared the historical data for each metric to historical commercial real estate losses in order to determine the correlation of the data. We used projections, obtained from third-party service providers, of each factor to approximate the impact the macroeconomic outlook may have on our loss rate.
The General CECL Allowance on subordinate loans is calculated by incorporating both the loan balance of the position(s) of the structurally senior third-party lender(s) and the balance of our subordinate loan(s). The subordinate loans, by virtue of being the first loss position, are required to absorb losses prior to the senior position(s) being impacted, resulting in a higher percentage allowance attributable to the subordinate loan. The General CECL Allowance on unfunded loan commitments is time-weighted based on our expected commitment to fund such obligations. The General CECL Allowance on unfunded commitments is recorded as a liability on our condensed consolidated balance sheets within accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities.
We have made an accounting policy election to exclude accrued interest receivable ($71.6 million and $65.4 million as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively), included in other assets on our condensed consolidated balance sheets,
15

from the amortized cost basis of the related commercial mortgage loans and subordinate loans and other lending assets in determining the General CECL Allowance, as any uncollectible accrued interest receivable is written off in a timely manner.
Although our secured debt obligations and senior secured term loan financing have a minimum tangible net worth maintenance covenant, the General CECL Allowance has no impact on these covenants as we are permitted to add back the General CECL Allowance for the computation of tangible net worth as defined in the respective agreements.
The following schedule sets forth our General CECL Allowance as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 ($ in thousands):

|  | June 30, 2023 |  | December 31, 2022
Commercial mortgage loans, net |  | $ | 30,793 |  |  | $ | 22,848 |
Subordinate loans and other lending assets, net |  | 1,483 |  |  | 3,376 |

(1)The General CECL Allowance on unfunded commitments is recorded as a liability on our condensed consolidated balance sheets within accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities.
Specific CECL Allowance
For collateral-dependent loans where we have deemed the borrower/sponsor to be experiencing financial difficulty, we have elected to apply a practical expedient in accordance with the CECL Standard in which the fair value of the underlying collateral is compared to the amortized cost of the loan in determining a Specific CECL Allowance. The Specific CECL Allowance is determined as the difference between the fair value of the underlying collateral and the carrying value of the loan (prior to the Specific CECL Allowance). When the repayment or satisfaction of a loan is dependent on a sale, rather than operations, of the collateral, the fair value is adjusted for the estimated cost to sell the collateral. Collateral-dependent loans evaluated for a Specific CECL Allowance are removed from the General CECL pool. The fair value of the underlying collateral is determined by using method(s) such as discounted cash flow, the market approach, or direct capitalization approach. The key unobservable inputs used to determine the fair value of the underlying collateral may vary depending on the information available to us and market conditions as of the valuation date.
We regularly evaluate the extent and impact of any credit migration associated with the performance and/or value of the underlying collateral property as well as the financial and operating capability of the borrower/sponsor on a loan-by-loan basis. The Specific CECL Allowance is evaluated on a quarterly basis. Specifically, a property’s operating results and any cash reserves are analyzed and used to assess (i) whether cash from operations is sufficient to cover the debt service requirements currently and into the future, (ii) the ability of the borrower to refinance the loan and/or (iii) the liquidation value of the underlying collateral. We also evaluate the financial wherewithal of any loan guarantors as well as the borrower’s competency in managing and operating the properties. In addition, we consider the overall economic environment, real estate sector and geographic sub-market in which the borrower operates. Such impairment analysis is completed and reviewed by asset management and finance personnel who utilize various data sources, including (i) periodic financial data such as debt service coverage ratio, property occupancy, tenant profile, rental rates, operating expenses, the borrower’s exit plan, and capitalization and discount rates, (ii) site inspections and (iii) current credit spreads and discussions with market participants.
The following table summarizes our risk rated 5 loans as of June 30, 2023, which were analyzed for Specific CECL Allowances ($ in thousands):

Type | Property type | Location | Amortized cost prior to Specific CECL Allowance | Specific CECL Allowance | Amortized cost | Interest recognition status/ as of date | Risk rating

(2)In September 2018, we entered a joint venture with Turner Consulting II, LLC ("Turner Consulting"), through an entity which owns the underlying property that secures our loan. Turner Consulting contributed 10% of the venture’s equity and we contributed 90%. The entity was deemed to be a Variable Interest Entity (a "VIE") and we determined that we are not the primary beneficiary of that VIE as we do not have the power to direct the entity's activities. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, $0.7 million and $1.3 million, respectively and $0.3 million and $0.6 million, respectively, of interest paid was applied towards reducing the carrying value of the loan. The related profit and loss from the joint venture was immaterial for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022. During the three months ended June 30, 2023, the loan's maturity was extended from September 2023 to September 2024.
(3)The fair value of the residential collateral was determined by making certain projections and assumptions with respect to future performance and a discount rate of 10%.
We cease accruing interest on loans if we deem the interest to be uncollectible with any previously accrued uncollected interest on the loan charged to interest income in the same period. The amortized cost basis for loans on non-accrual was $711.6 million an d $468.0 million as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. Under certain circumstances, we may apply the cost recovery method under which interest collected on a loan reduces the loan's amortized cost. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, we received $0.7 million and $1.3 million, respectively, in interest that reduced amortized cost under the cost recovery method compared to $0.3 million and $0.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively.
As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the amortized cost basis for loans with accrued interest past due 90 or more days was $268.1 million and $581.3 million, respectively. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there were no loans with accrued interest between 30 and 89 days past due, respectively.
During the third quarter of 2022, we refinanced three of our mezzanine loans (a senior mezzanine loan (“Senior Mezzanine Loan”) and two junior mezzanine loans (“Junior Mezzanine A Loan” and “Junior Mezzanine B Loan” collectively referred to as “Junior Mezzanine Loan”)), and originated a commercial mortgage loan (“Senior Loan”) as part of an overall recapitalization. All of the loans are secured by an ultra-luxury residential property in Manhattan, NY.
In refinancing the Senior Mezzanine Loan and Junior Mezzanine Loan, we modified the loan terms with the borrower by modifying the interest rates from LIBOR+15.7% to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR")+9.0% on the Senior Mezzanine Loan, from LIBOR+22.5% to SOFR+15.0% on the Junior Mezzanine A Loan, and from LIBOR+17.5% to SOFR+15.0% on the Junior Mezzanine B Loan. We also extended the term on all three loans from July 2022 to September 2024, including a one-year extension. Based on our analysis under ASC 310-20 “Receivables – Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs” (“ASC 310-20”), we have deemed this refinance to be a continuation of our existing loans. Additionally, we opted to cease accruing interest on the Junior Mezzanine A Loan and Junior Mezzanine B Loan as of July 1, 2021 based on a waterfall sharing arrangement with a subordinate capital provider, and have continued to not accrue interest on the Junior Mezzanine Loan following this refinancing.
In accordance with ASC 326, "Financial Instruments – Credit Losses" and adoption of ASU 2022-02 "Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326) – Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures", we have classified the refinancing of the Senior Mezzanine Loan and Junior Mezzanine Loan as an interest rate reduction and term extension. The modified loan terms as discussed above have been reflected in our calculation of CECL for the quarter ended June 30, 2023. R efer to "CECL" section above for additional information regarding our calculation of CECL Allowance.
As of June 30, 2023 the aggregate amortized cost of the Senior Mezzanine Loan and Junior Mezzanine A Loan totaled $373.0 million (net of $126.0 million Specific CECL Allowance and inclusive of $36.1 million of payment- in-kind interest), or 4.5% of our aggregate commercial mortgage loans and subordinate loans and other lending assets by amortized cost. The Junior Mezzanine B Loan was fully written off as of June 30, 2023, as discussed below.
As of March 31, 2022, sales velocity on the underlying property lagged behind the borrower's business plan and management's expectations. Based on this information as of March 31, 2022, we deemed the borrower to be experiencing financial difficulty and accordingly changed the risk rating to a 5 and recorded $30.0 million of Specific CECL Allowance on the Junior Mezzanine B Loan. During the three months ended December 31, 2022, we recorded an additional $36.5 million Specific CECL Allowance on the Junior Mezzanine B Loan, bringing the total loan Specific CECL Allowance to $66.5 million, due to a slower sales pace across the ultra-luxury residential segment at the end of 2022 in response to broader market uncertainty.
During the quarter ended June 30, 2023, property sales continued to trail behind the borrower's business plan. Accordingly, as of May 1, 2023, we ceased accruing interest on the Senior Loan and the Senior Mezzanine Loan. Additionally, during the quarter ended June 30, 2023, we recorded a $126.0 million Specific CECL Allowance on the Junior Mezzanine A Loan and downgraded its risk rating to a 5. We also increased the previously recorded Specific CECL Allowance on the Junior Mezzanine B Loan by $15.5 million during the three months ended June 30, 2023. As of June 30, 2023, we deemed the $82.0 million Junior Mezzanine B Loan to be unrecoverable. Accordingly, we wrote off the Junior Mezzanine B's total Specific CECL Allowance of $82.0 million and recorded a realized loss of $82.0 million within net realized loss on investments in our June 30, 2023 condensed consolidated statement of operations.

In March 2017, we originated a first mortgage secured by a hotel in Atlanta, GA. As of May 1, 2022, due to slower than expected recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, we deemed the borrower to be experiencing financial difficulty and ceased accruing interest. During the second quarter of 2022, we recorded a $7.0 million Specific CECL Allowance. Additionally, during 2022, we modified the loan to provide two short term extensions to the borrower. During the fourth quarter of 2022, the loan went into maturity default, at which time we were in discussions with the sponsor regarding consensual foreclosure. In anticipation of the foreclosure, we wrote off the previously recorded Specific CECL Allowance, and recorded a $7.0 million realized loss on the loan within realized gain (loss) on investments within our consolidated statement of operations during the first quarter of 2023. On March 31, 2023, we acquired legal title of the underlying hotel through a deed-in-lieu foreclosure and recognized an additional $4.8 million loss within net realized loss on investments on our condensed consolidated statement of operations. The realized loss represents the difference between the original loan's amortized cost and the fair value of the net real estate assets acquired at the time of foreclosure. Refer to "Note 5 - Real Estate Owned" for additional disclosure.
As of June 30, 2023 there were no unfunded commitments related to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty. As of December 31, 2022, there were $9.5 million of unfunded commitments related to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty.
Other Loan and Lending Assets Activity
We recognized no payment-in-kind interest for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and $4.5 million and $5.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively.
We recognized $0.2 million of pre-payment penalties and accelerated fees for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and $0.3 million and $2.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively.
As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, our portfolio included other lending assets, which are subordinate risk retention interests in securitization vehicles. The underlying mortgages related to our subordinate risk retention interest is secured by a portfolio of properties located throughout the United States. Our maximum exposure to loss from the subordinate risk retention interest is limited to the book value of such interests. The book value as of both June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 was $41.2 million and $51.1 million, consisting of one interest with a weighted average maturity of 1.0 years and 1.4 years, respectively. We are not obligated to provide, and do not intend to provide financial support to these subordinate risk retention interests. These interests are accounted for as held-to-maturity and recorded at carrying value on our condensed consolidated balance sheets.
During the first quarter of 2023, we received £72.2 million ($88.4 million assuming conversion into U.S. Dollars ("USD")) full repayment of one of our commercial mortgage loans secured by an office property in London, UK, including all default interest accrued to date, which was approximately $0.7 million. In conjunction with the repayment, we are no longer recording the previously sold subordinate interest as a secured borrowing on our consolidated balance sheet, which had an amortized cost basis of £20.8 million ($25.1 million assuming conversion into USD). Refer to "Note 12 – Participations Sold" for additional detail related to the subordinate interest.
Loan Sales
From time to time, we may enter into sale transactions with other parties. All sale transactions are evaluated in accordance with ASC 860, "Transfers and Servicing" ("ASC 860").
During the first quarter of 2023, we sold our entire interests in three commercial mortgage loans secured by various properties in Europe, with aggregate commitments of €205.7 million ($219.0 million assuming conversion into USD, of which €115.0 million or $122.4 million assuming conversion into USD, was funded at the time of sale). Additionally, we sold a partial interest of £15.0 million ($18.2 million assuming conversion into USD) in a commercial mortgage loan secured by a mixed-use property located in London, UK. These sales were made to entities managed by affiliates of the Manager. We evaluated the transaction under ASC 860 and determined the sale of our entire interests and the sale of the partial interest met the criteria for sale accounting. We recorded a net gain of approximately $0.2 million in connection with these sales during the first quarter of 2023 within net realized loss on investments in condensed consolidated statement of operations.
Note 5 – Real Estate Owned
Real Estate Owned, Held for Investment
As of June 30, 2023, assets and liabilities related to real estate owned, held for investment consisted of two properties: the D.C. Hotel, a full-service luxury hotel in Washington, D.C., and the Brooklyn Development, a multifamily development
18

property located in downtown Brooklyn, NY.
D.C. Hotel
In 2017, we originated a $20.0 million junior mezzanine loan which was subordinate to: (i) a $110.0 million mortgage loan, and (ii) a $24.5 million senior mezzanine loan, secured by the D.C. Hotel. During the first quarter of 2020, we recorded a $10.0 million Specific CECL Allowance and placed our junior mezzanine loan on non-accrual status.
On May 24, 2021, we purchased the $24.5 million senior mezzanine loan at par and acquired legal title to the hotel through a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure. We assumed the hotel’s as sets and liabilities (including the $110.0 million mortgage loan) and recorded an additional $10.0 million charge reflecting the difference between the fair value of the hotel’s net assets and the carrying amount of the loan. This $10.0 million loss on title assumption plus the previously recorded Specific CECL Allowance of $10.0 million resulted in a $20.0 million realized loss on investments included within realized gain (loss) on investments in our 2021 consolidated statement of operations.
On May 24, 2021, in accordance with ASC 805, "Business Combinations" ("ASC 805"), we allocated the fair value of the hotel’s acquired assets and assumed debt. The non-recurring fair value measurement was classified as Level III within the fair value hierarchy due to the use of significant unobservable inputs. On June 29, 2021, we repaid the $110.0 million mortgage loan against the property. As of March 1, 2022, the hotel assets, comprised of land, building, furniture fixtures, and equipment, and accumulated depreciation (collectively "REO Fixed Assets"), and liabilities met the criteria to be classified as held for sale under ASC Topic 360, "Property, Plant, and Equipment." Accordingly, as of March 1, 2022, we ceased recording depreciation on the building and furniture, fixtures, and equipment on the condensed consolidated statement of operations.
As of March 1, 2023, due to current market conditions, we have curtailed active marketing efforts, and reclassified the REO Fixed Assets and liabilities from real estate owned, held for sale to real estate owned, held for investment, net in accordance with ASC Topic 360.
The REO Fixed Assets were reclassified to their carrying value before classifying as held for sale in March of 2022 and $4.0 million in depreciation, representing the amount that would have been recorded had the asset remained as held for investment, was recognized. All other assets and liabilities were reclassified to the corresponding line items on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. No realized gain or loss was recorded in connection with this reclassification.
As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the value of net real estate assets related to the D.C. Hotel was $154.0 million and $155.9 million, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, we recorded net income from hotel operations of $5.7 million and $3.8 million, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, we recorded net income from hotel operations of $5.5 million and $4.2 million, respectively.
Brooklyn Development
In 2015, we originated a $122.2 million multifamily development commercial mortgage loan secured by an assemblage of properties in downtown Brooklyn, NY. In 2020, the loan went into default and we recorded a $30.0 million Specific CECL Allowance, due to the deterioration of market conditions attributable to COVID-19. As a result of improved market conditions we reversed $20 million of Specific CECL Allowance during the second quarter of 2021. In the second quarter of 2022, we reversed the remaining $10 million Specific CECL Allowance as a result of market rent growth and value created from development activities at the underlying property.
On August 3, 2022, we acquired legal title of the property through a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure and accounted for the asset acquisition in accordance with ASC 805. At that time, our amortized cost basis in the commercial mortgage loan was $226.5 million. We recorded the real estate assumed at a fair value of $270.1 million based on the market value of the land. We recognized a realized gain of $43.6 million, recorded within realized gain (loss) on investments on our consolidated statement of operations, which reflects the difference between the fair value of the property and the carrying value of the loan at the time of acquisition. The non-recurring fair value measurement was classified as Level III within the fair value hierarchy due to the use of significant unobservable inputs, including comparable sales of similar properties in the market. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, we capitalized construction and financing costs of $15.2 million and $29.1 million, respectively. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, our cost basis in the property was $331.8 million and $302.7 million, respectively.
Upon taking title, we concurrently contributed the property to a joint venture with a third-party real estate developer. The entity was deemed to be a VIE, of which we were determined to be the primary beneficiary. Through our wholly owned subsidiaries, we hold a 100% equity ownership interest in the joint venture and our partner is only entitled to profit upon achievement of certain returns under our joint venture agreement. Concurrently with taking title to the property, we obtained $164.8 million in construction financing on the property. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the carrying value of the construction financing included within debt related to real estate owned, held for investment, net on our condensed consolidated
19

balance sheets was $160.9 million, net of $3.9 million in deferred financing costs and $160.3 million, net of $4.5 million in deferred financing costs, respectively.
The construction financing includes a maximum commitment of $388.4 million, an interest rate of term one-month SOFR+2.55%, and current maturity of August 2026, with an option to extend for one year, contingent upon meeting certain conditions. The construction financing agreement contains covenants requiring our unencumbered liquidity be greater than $100.0 million and our net worth be greater than $600.0 million. Under these covenants, our General CECL Allowance is added back to our net worth calculation. As of both June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we were in compliance with these covenants.
Real Estate Owned, Held for Sale
Atlanta Hotel
In March 2017, we originated a first mortgage secured by the Atlanta Hotel. During the second quarter of 2022, due to slower than expected recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, we deemed the borrower to be experiencing financial difficulty. Accordingly, we ceased accruing interest on the loan and recorded a $7.0 million Specific CECL Allowance.
During the fourth quarter of 2022, we wrote off the $7.0 million previously recorded Specific CECL Allowance and reduced the principal balance of the loan which was recorded as a realized loss within net realized loss on investments in our December 31, 2022 consolidated statement of operations.
On March 31, 2023, we acquired legal title of the Atlanta Hotel through a deed-in-lieu foreclosure and determined the fair value of net real estate assets to be $75.0 million in accordance with ASC 820 "Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures." The fair value of the real estate owned is categorized within Level III of the fair value hierarchy set forth by ASC 820 and includes the use of significant unobservable inputs. See "Note 3 - Fair Value Disclosure" for discussion of our non-recurring fair value measurements. Additionally, we recognized a realized loss of $4.8 million, recorded within net realized loss on investments on our condensed consolidated statement of operations. The realized loss represents the difference between the original loan's amortized cost and the fair value of the net assets acquired.
During the three months ended June 30, 2023, we received an unsolicited offer from a third party to purchase the Atlanta Hotel. We expect the sale to occur in the second half of the year ending December 31, 2023, after a diligence period. As of June 30, 2023, the hotel's assets and liabilities met the criteria to be classified as held for sale under ASC Topic 360, "Property, Plant, and Equipment." As of June 30, 2023, we ceased recording depreciation on the building and furniture, fixtures, and equipment on the condensed consolidated statement of operations. In accordance with ASC Topic 360, "Property, Plant, and Equipment", we have reclassified assets and liabilities from their respective condensed consolidated balance sheet line items to Assets related to real estate owned, held for sale and Liabilities related to real estate owned, held for sale.
As of June 30, 2023, the value of net real estate assets related to the Atlanta Hotel was $77.6 million. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 we recorded net income from the hotel's operations of $1.4 million.

Revolving Credit Facility
On March 3, 2023, we entered into the Revolving Credit Facility administered by Bank of America, N.A. Revolving Credit Facility provides up to $170.0 million of borrowings secured by qualifying commercial mortgage loans and real property owned assets. The Revolving Credit Facility has a term of three years, maturing in March 2026. The Revolving Credit Facility enables us to borrow on qualifying commercial mortgage loans for up to two years and real property owned assets for up to six months. As of June 30, 2023 we had no borrowings outstanding on the Revolving Credit Facility. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, we recorded $85.9 thousand and $113.3 thousand, respectively in unused fees related to the Revolving Credit Facility.

Barclays Private Securitization
We are party to a private securitization with Barclays Bank plc (the "Barclays Private Securitization"). Commercial mortgage loans currently financed under the Barclays Securitization are denominated in GBP, EUR and SEK.
The Barclays Private Securitization does not include daily margining provisions and grants us significant discretion to modify certain terms of the underlying collateral including waiving certain loan-level covenant breaches and deferring or waiving of debt service payments for up to 18 months. The securitization includes loan-to-value based covenants with deleveraging requirements that are based on significant declines in the value of the collateral as determined by an annual third-party (engaged by us) appraisal process tied to the provisions of the underlying loan agreements. We believe this provides us with both cushion and predictability to avoid sudden unexpected outcomes and material repayment requirements.

Debt Covenants
The guarantees related to our secured debt arrangements contain the following financial covenants: (i) tangible net worth must be greater than $1.25 billion plus 75% of the net cash proceeds of any equity issuance after March 31, 2017; (ii) our ratio of total indebtedness to tangible net worth cannot be greater than 3.75:1; and (iii) our liquidity cannot be less than an amount equal to the greater of 5% of total recourse indebtedness or $30.0 million. Under these covenants, our General CECL Allowance is added back to our tangible net worth calculation. Additionally, in relation to our Revolving Credit Facility, we must maintain a minimum interest coverage ratio of 1.5:1.
We were in compliance with the covenants under each of our secured debt arrangements at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.
Note 8 – Senior Secured Term Loans, Net
In May 2019, we entered into a $500.0 million senior secured term loan (the "2026 Term Loan"), which matures in May 2026 and contains restrictions relating to liens, asset sales, indebtedness, and investments in non-wholly owned entities. The 2026 Term Loan was issued at a price of 99.5%. During the second quarter of 2023, the 2026 Term Loan transitioned from LIBOR to SOFR and currently bears interest at SOFR plus 2.86%.
In March 2021, we entered into an additional $300.0 million senior secured term loan, with substantially the same terms as the 2026 Term Loan, (the "2028 Term Loan" and, together with the 2026 Term Loan, the "Term Loans"), which matures in March 2028 and contains restrictions relating to liens, asset sales, indebtedness, and investments in non-wholly owned entities. The 2028 Term Loan was issued at a price of 99.0%. During the second quarter of 2023, the 2028 Term Loan transitioned from LIBOR to SOFR and currently bears interest at SOFR (with a floor of 0.50%) plus 3.61%.
The Term Loans are amortizing with repayments of 0.25% per quarter of the total committed principal. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, we repaid $1.3 million and $2.5 million, of principal respectively related to the 2026 Term Loan. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, we repaid $0.7 million and $1.5 million, of principal respectively related to the 2028 Term Loan.
The following table summarizes the terms of the Term Loans as of June 30, 2023 ($ in thousands):

| Principal Amount | Unamortized Issuance Discount(1) | Deferred Financing Costs(1) | Carrying Value | Rate | Maturity Date

(1) Unamortized issuance discount and deferred financing costs will be amortized to interest expense over remaining life of respective term loans.
Covenants
The financial covenants of the Term Loans include the requirements that we maintain: (i) a maximum ratio of total recourse debt to tangible net worth of 4:1; and (ii) a maximum ratio of total unencumbered assets to total pari-passu indebtedness of 2.50:1. We were in compliance with the covenants under the Term Loans at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.
Interest Rate Cap
During the second quarter of 2020, we entered into a three-year interest rate cap to cap LIBOR at 0.75%. This effectively limited the maximum all-in coupon on our 2026 Term Loan to 3.50%. In connection with the interest rate cap, we incurred upfront fees of $1.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2020, which we recorded as a deferred financing cost on our consolidated balance sheets. The deferred financing cost was being amortized over the duration of the interest rate cap with respective amortization recognized as part of interest expense in our condensed consolidated statement of operations. The interest rate cap matured on June 15, 2023 and the effective all-in coupon on our 2026 Term Loan increased to one month SOFR plus the spread of 2.86%.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, LIBOR exceeded the cap rate of 0.75%. As such, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, we realized a gain from the interest rate cap in the amount of $4.4 million and $9.1 million, respectively, which is included in gain (loss) on interest rate hedging instruments in our condensed consolidated statement of operations. The realized gain was a result of the increase in the current interest rate forward curve, partially offset by the nearing maturity of the cap.
Note 9 – Senior Secured Notes, Net
In June 2021, we issued $500.0 million of 4.625% Senior Secured Notes due 2029 (the "2029 Notes"), for which we received net proceeds of $495.0 million, after deducting initial purchasers' discounts and commissions. The 2029 Notes will mature on June 15, 2029, unless earlier repurchased or redeemed. The 2029 Notes are secured by a first-priority lien, and rank pari-passu in right of payment with all of our existing and future first lien obligations, including indebtedness under the Term Loans. The 2029 Notes were issued at par and contain covenants relating to liens, indebtedness, and investments in non-wholly owned entities. The 2029 Notes had a carrying value of $495.2 million and $494.8 million, net of deferred financing costs of $4.8 million and $5.2 million, as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.
Covenants
The 2029 Notes include certain covenants including a requirement that we maintain a ratio of total unencumbered assets to total pari-passu indebtedness of at least 1.20:1. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we were in compliance with all covenants.
Note 10 – Convertible Senior Notes, Net
In two separate offerings during 2017, we issued an aggregate principal amount of $345.0 million of 4.75% Convertible Senior Notes due 2022 (the "2022 Notes"), for which we received $337.5 million, after deducting the underwriting discount and offering expenses. During the third quarter of 2022, w e repaid the $345.0 million aggregate principal amount of the 2022 Notes in cash at par.
26

During the fourth quarter of 2018, we issued $230.0 million of 5.375% Convertible Senior Notes due 2023 (the "2023 Notes" and, together with the 2022 Notes, the "Convertible Notes"), for which we received $223.7 million after deducting the underwriting discount and offering expenses. At June 30, 2023, the 2023 Notes had a carrying value of $185.9 million and an unamortized discount of $0.2 million.
The following table summarizes the terms of the 2023 Notes as of June 30, 2023 ($ in thousands):

| Principal Amount | Coupon Rate | Effective Rate (1) | Conversion Rate (2) | Maturity Date | Remaining Period of Amortization

———————
(1)Effective rate includes the effect of the adjustment for the conversion option (See footnote (2) below), the value of which reduced the initial liability and was recorded in additional paid-in-capital. The effective rate as of both June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 reflects adoption of ASU 2020-06 "Debt – Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity's Own Equity" ("ASU 2020-06") and early extinguishment of debt.
(2)We have the option to settle any conversions in cash, shares of common stock or a combination thereof. The conversion rate represents the number of shares of common stock issuable per one thousand principal amount of the Convertible Notes converted and includes adjustments relating to cash dividend payments made by us to stockholders that have been deferred and carried-forward in accordance with, and are not yet required to be made pursuant to, the terms of the applicable supplemental indenture.
On January 1, 2022, we adopted ASU 2020-06, which no longer require the liability and equity components of convertible debt instruments that may be settled in cash upon conversion (including partial cash settlement) to be separately accounted for in a manner that reflects the issuer’s nonconvertible debt borrowing rate. Prior to the adoption of ASU 2020-06, we attributed $15.4 million of the proceeds to the equity component of the Convertible Notes ($11.0 million to the 2022 Notes and $4.4 million to the 2023 Notes), which represented the excess proceeds received over the fair value of the liability component of the Convertible Notes at the date of issuance. The equity component of the Convertible Notes had been reflected within additional paid-in capital on our consolidated balance sheets until January 1, 2022 when we adopted ASU 2020-06 through the modified retrospective approach. Upon adoption, we (i) reclassified $12.0 million of previously recorded amortization related to the equity component of the Convertible Notes from retained earnings to additional paid-in-capital and (ii) reclassified the remaining unamortized balance of $3.4 million to additional paid-in-capital, which increased the cost basis of convertible notes and decreased additional paid-in-capital on the consolidated balance sheets.
We may not redeem the 2023 Notes prior to maturity except in limited circumstances. During the first quarter of 2023, we repurchased $7.1 million aggregate principal amount of the 2023 Notes at a price of 97.0%. During the second quarter of 2023, we repurchased an additional $36.8 million aggregate principal amount of the 2023 Notes at a weighted average price of 99.3%. These transactions happened in the open market as a result of reverse inquiries from investors with no solicitation from us. As a result of these transactions, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, we recorded a gain of $0.3 million and $0.5 million, respectively, within realized gain on extinguishment of debt in our June 30, 2023 condensed consolidated statement of operations. The gain represents the difference between the repurchase price and the carrying amount of the 2023 Notes, net of the proportionate amount of unamortized debt issuance costs. The closing price of our common stock on June 30, 2023 of $11.32 was less than the per share conversion price of the 2023 Notes at such time.
The aggregate contractual interest expense was approximately $2.8 million and $5.8 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and $7.2 million and $14.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively. With respect to the amortization of the discount on the liability component of the Convertible Notes as well as the amortization of deferred financing costs, we reported additional non-cash interest expense of approximately $0.4 million and $0.8 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to $0.8 million and $1.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively.
Note 11 – Derivatives

We use forward currency contracts to economically hedge interest and principal payments due under our loans denominated in currencies other than USD.
We have entered into a series of forward contracts to sell an amount of foreign currency (GBP, EUR and SEK) for an agreed upon amount of USD at various dates through February 2027. These forward contracts were executed to economically fix the USD amounts of foreign denominated cash flows expected to be received by us related to foreign denominated loan investments.
The agreements with our derivative counterparties require that we post collateral to secure net liability positions. As of both June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we were in a net asset position with all of our derivative counterparties and did not have any collateral posted under these derivative contracts.

In June 2020, we entered into an interest rate cap for approximately $1.1 million, which matured on June 15, 2023. Our interest rate cap managed our exposure to variable cash flows on our borrowings under the senior secured term loan by effectively limiting LIBOR from exceeding 0.75%. This effectively limited the maximum all-in coupon on our senior secured term loan to 3.50%. The unrealized gain or loss related to the interest rate cap was recorded net under unrealized gain on interest rate hedging instruments in our consolidated statement of operations. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, LIBOR exceeded the cap rate of 0.75%. As such, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, we realized a gain from the interest rate cap in the amount of $4.4 million and $9.1 million, respectively, which is included in gain (loss) on interest rate hedging instruments in our condensed consolidated statement of operations. The realized gain was a result of the increase in current interest rates. There was no realized gain recorded during the six months ended June 30, 2022.

Note 12 – Participations Sold
Participations sold represents the subordinate interests in loans we originated and subsequently partially sold. We account for participations sold as secured borrowings on our condensed consolidated balance sheet with both assets and non-recourse liabilities because the participations do not qualify as a sale under ASC 860. The income earned on the participations sold is recorded as interest income and an identical amount is recorded as interest expense in our condensed consolidated statements of operations.
In December 2020, we sold a £6.7 million ($8.9 million assuming conversion into USD at time of transfer) interest, at par, in a first mortgage loan collateralized by an office building located in London, UK that was originated by us in December 2017. In connection with this sale, we transferred our remaining unfunded commitment of £19.1 million ($25.3 million assuming conversion into USD at time of transfer). The participation interest sold was subordinate to our first mortgage loan and was accounted for as a secured borrowing on our consolidated balance sheet. In January 2023, the first mortgage loan, including participations sold, was fully satisfied, including all contractual and default interest accrued to date.

Pursuant to the terms of the Management Agreement, the Manager is paid a base management fee equal to 1.5% per annum of our stockholders’ equity (as defined in the Management Agreement), calculated and payable (in cash) quarterly in arrears.
The term of the Management Agreement was automatically renewed for a successive one-year term on September 29, 2022 and will automatically renew on each anniversary thereafter. The Management Agreement may be terminated upon expiration of the one-year extension term only upon the affirmative vote of at least two-thirds of our independent directors, based upon (1) unsatisfactory performance by the Manager that is materially detrimental to ARI or (2) a determination that the management fee payable to the Manager is not fair, subject to the Manager’s right to prevent such a termination based on unfair fees by accepting a mutually acceptable reduction of management fees agreed to by at least two-thirds of our independent directors. The Manager must be provided with written notice of any such termination at least 180 days prior to the expiration of the then existing term and will be paid a termination fee equal to three times the sum of the average annual base management fee during the 24-month period immediately preceding the date of termination, calculated as of the end of the most recently completed fiscal quarter prior to the date of termination. Following a meeting of our independent directors in March 2023, which included a discussion of the Manager’s performance and the level of the management fees thereunder, we determined not to seek termination of the Management Agreement.
We incurred approximately $9.4 million and $18.9 million in base management fees under the Management Agreement for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, as compared to $9.6 million and $18.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively.
In addition to the base management fee, we are also responsible for reimbursing the Manager for certain expenses paid by the Manager on our behalf or for certain services provided by the Manager to us. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, we paid expenses totaling $1.4 million and $2.6 million, respectively, related to reimbursements for certain expenses paid by the Manager on our behalf under the Management Agreement as compared to $1.3 million and $2.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively. Expenses incurred by the Manager and reimbursed by us are reflected in the respective condensed consolidated statement of operations expense category or our condensed consolidated balance sheets based on the nature of the item.
Included in payable to related party on our condensed consolidated balance sheets at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 is approximately $9.4 million and $9.7 million, respectively, for base management fees incurred but not yet paid under the Management Agreement.
Loans receivable
We own three mezzanine loans and a commercial mortgage that are secured by the same ultra-luxury residential property
30

currently under construction in Manhattan, NY. During the third quarter of 2021, a vehicle managed by an affiliate of the Manager transferred its Junior Mezzanine B Loan position to the Company and in connection with this transfer, one of the property’s subordinate capital providers paid the vehicle a price representing the original principal balance on the Junior Mezzanine B Loan position with the vehicle agreeing to forego its accrued interest on the Junior Mezzanine B Loan. During the third quarter of 2022, we refinanced our mezzanine loans, and originated a commercial mortgage loan as part of an overall recapitalization. The mezzanine positions held by entities managed by affiliates of the Manager were repaid. Refer to "Note 4 - Commercial Mortgage Loans, Subordinate Loans and Other Lending Assets, Net" for additional information.
During the third quarter of 2022, we transferred £293.4 million ($327.7 million assuming conversion into USD) of unfunded commitments related to a mixed-use development property located in London, UK to entities managed by affiliates of the Manager.
During the first quarter of 2023, we transferred interests in, (i) three commercial mortgage loans secured by various properties in Europe, with aggregate commitments of €205.7 million (of which €115.0 million was funded at the time of sale), and (ii) a partial interest of £15.0 million in a commercial mortgage loan secured by a mixed-use property located in London, UK. These transfers were made to entities managed by affiliates of the Manager. Refer to "Note 4 – Commercial Mortgage Loans, Subordinate Loans and Other Lending Assets, Net" for additional disclosure.
Term Loan
In March 2021, Apollo Global Funding, LLC, an affiliate of the Manager, served as one of the eight arrangers for the issuance of our 2028 Term Loan and received $0.2 million of arrangement fees. In addition, funds managed by an affiliate of the Manager invested in $30.0 million of the 2028 Term Loan.
Senior Secured Notes
In June 2021, Apollo Global Securities, LLC, an affiliate of the Manager, served as one of the eight initial purchasers in the issuance of our 2029 Notes and received $0.4 million of initial purchasers' discounts and commissions.
Italian Direct Lending Structure
In the fourth quarter of 2021, we formed an Italian closed-end alternative investment fund (the "AIF"), managed by
Apollo Investment Management Europe (Luxembourg) S.A R.L, a regulated alternative investment fund manager (the
"AIFM"), an affiliate of the Manager. As of June 30, 2023, the AIF did not have a fee payable to AIFM. As of June 30, 2022, the AIF had a balance of $60.1 thousand in fees payable to the AIFM, which is recorded in payable to related party on our condensed consolidated balance sheet. The fees incurred during the six months ended June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022 were de minimis.
Atlas Facility
On February 8, 2023, in connection with the acquisition by certain subsidiaries of Atlas, which is a wholly-owned investment of a fund managed by an affiliate of the Manager, the Credit Suisse Facility was acquired by Atlas. In order to effect the assignment of the Credit Suisse Facility and related agreements, the Company and one of its subsidiaries, similar to the other sellers and guarantors party to the subject agreements in the Transaction, entered into an Omnibus Assignment, Assumption and Amendment Agreement as well as certain related agreements with Credit Suisse AG and Atlas. At the time of acquisition, we had $632.3 million of secured debt on the Credit Suisse Facility consisting of four commercial mortgage loans. During the three months ended June 30, 2023, one commercial mortgage loan was added to the Atlas Facility totaling $83 million in secured debt. Refer to "Note 7 – Secured Debt Arrangements, Net" " for additional discussion.
Note 15 – Share-Based Payments
On September 23, 2009, our board of directors approved the Apollo Commercial Real Estate Finance, Inc. 2009 Equity Incentive Plan ("2009 LTIP") and on April 16, 2019, our board of directors approved the Amended and Restated Apollo Commercial Real Estate Finance, Inc. 2019 Equity Incentive Plan ("2019 LTIP," and together with the 2009 LTIP, the "LTIPs"), which amended and restated the 2009 LTIP. Following the approval of the 2019 LTIP by our stockholders at our 2019 annual meeting of stockholders on June 12, 2019, no additional awards have been or will be granted under the 2009 LTIP and all outstanding awards granted under the 2009 LTIP remain in effect in accordance with the terms in the 2009 LTIP.
The 2019 LTIP provides for grants of restricted common stock, restricted stock units ("RSUs") and other equity-based awards up to an aggregate of 7,000,000 shares of our common stock. The LTIPs are administered by the compensation committee of our board of directors (the "Compensation Committee") and all grants under the LTIPs must be approved by the Compensation Committee.

We recognized stock-based compensation expense of $4.4 million and $8.7 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023. We recognized stock-based compensation expense of of $4.5 million and $9.2 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 respectively, related to restricted stock and RSU vesting.
The following table summarizes the grants, vesting and forfeitures of restricted common stock and RSUs during the six months ended June 30, 2023:

| Type |  | Restricted Stock |  | RSUs |  | Grant Date Fair Value ($ in millions)
Outstanding at December 31, 2022 |  | 56,102 |  |  | 2,865,154 |  |  |

Total |  | 82,422 |  |  | 2,828,555 |  |  | 2,910,977 |

At June 30, 2023, we had unrecognized compensation expense of approximately $0.6 million and $25.6 million related to the vesting of restricted stock awards and RSUs, respectively, noted in the table above. The unrecognized compensation expense related to the vesting of restricted awards and RSUs are expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.4 years.
RSU Deliveries
During the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 we delivered 671,428 and 647,349 shares of common stock for 1,236,071 and 1,136,525 vested RSUs, respectively. We allow RSU participants to settle their tax liabilities with a reduction of their share delivery from the originally granted and vested RSUs. The amount, when agreed to by the participant, results in a cash payment to the Manager related to this tax liability and a corresponding adjustment to additional paid in capital on our condensed consolidated statement of changes in stockholders' equity. The adjustment was $6.7 million and $7.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The adjustment is a reduction of capital related to our equity incentive plan and is presented net of increases of capital related to our equity incentive plan in our condensed consolidated statement of changes in stockholders' equity.

Note 17 – Commitments and Contingencies
Legal Proceedings. From time to time, we may be involved in various claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. On June 28, 2018, AmBase Corporation, 111 West 57th Street Manager Funding LLC and 111 West 57th Investment LLC commenced a now-dismissed action captioned AmBase Corporation et al v. ACREFI Mortgage Lending, LLC et al (No 653251/2018) in New York Supreme Court (the "Apollo Action"). The complaint named as defendants (i) a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (the "Subsidiary"), (ii) the Company, and (iii) certain funds managed by Apollo, who were co-lenders on a mezzanine loan against the development of a residential condominium building in Manhattan, New York. The plaintiffs alleged that the defendants tortiously interfered with the plaintiffs’ joint venture agreement with the developers of the project, and that the defendants aided and abetted breaches of fiduciary duty by the developers of the project. The plaintiffs alleged the loss of a $70.0 million investment plus punitive damages. The defendants' motion to dismiss was granted on October 23, 2019 and the Court entered judgment dismissing the complaint in its entirety on November 8, 2019. Plaintiffs appealed, the parties fully briefed the appeal, and then Plaintiffs dropped the appeal, and the case remains dismissed.
Plaintiffs amended the complaint in a separate action in 2021, 111 West 57th Investment LLC v. 111W57 Mezz Investor LLC (No. 655031/2017) also in New York Supreme Court (the "April 2021 Action") to name Apollo Global Management, Inc., the Subsidiary, the Company, and certain funds managed by Apollo as defendants. The April 2021 Action concerns overlapping claims and the same condominium development project that the Apollo Action concerned. The defendants filed a motion to dismiss, which was granted in part and denied in part on December 15, 2022. The Court dismissed the claim against Apollo Global Management, Inc. and the Company. Plaintiff has cross-appealed the dismissal to revive the claim against Apollo Global Management, Inc. The claim against the Apollo entities who were co-lenders on the mezzanine loan, including the Subsidiary, remains in the case. Apollo has appealed the decision with respect to the remaining claim. No reasonable estimate of possible loss, if any, can be made at this time. The Company believes the claims in this action are without merit.
Loan Commitments. As described in "Note 4 - Commercial Mortgage Loans, Subordinate Loans and Other Lending Assets, Net" at June 30, 2023, we had $780 million of unfunded commitments related to our commercial mortgage and subordinate loans. The timings and amounts of fundings are uncertain as these commitments relate to loans for construction costs, capital expenditures, leasing costs, interest and carry costs, among others. As such, the timings and amounts of future fundings depend on the progress and performance of the underlying assets of our loans. Certain of our lenders are contractually obligated to fund their ratable portion of these loan commitments over time, while other lenders have some degree of discretion over future loan funding obligations. The total unfunded commitment is expected to be funded over the remaining 3.4 years weighted average tenor of these loans.
Note 18 – Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The following table presents the carrying value and estimated fair value of our financial instruments not carried at fair value on our condensed consolidated balance sheets at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 ($ in thousands):

To determine estimated fair values of the financial instruments listed above, market rates of interest, which include credit assumptions, are used to discount contractual cash flows. The estimated fair values are not necessarily indicative of the amount we could realize on disposition of the financial instruments. The use of different market assumptions or estimation methodologies could have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts. Estimates of fair value for cash and cash equivalents, convertible senior notes, net, and Term Loans, net are measured using observable Level I inputs as defined in "Note 3 - Fair Value Disclosure." Estimates of fair value for all other financial instruments in the table above are measured
33

using significant estimates, or unobservable Level III inputs as defined in "Note 3 - Fair Value Disclosure."
Note 19 – Net Income (Loss) per Share
ASC 260, "Earnings per share" requires the use of the two-class method of computing earnings per share for all periods presented for each class of common stock and participating security as if all earnings for the period had been distributed. Under the two-class method, during periods of net income, the net income is first reduced for dividends declared on all classes of securities to arrive at undistributed earnings. During periods of net losses, the net loss is reduced for dividends declared on participating securities only if the security has the right to participate in the earnings of the entity and an objectively determinable contractual obligation to share in net losses of the entity.
The remaining earnings are allocated to common stockholders and participating securities to the extent that each security shares in earnings as if all of the earnings for the period had been distributed. Each total is then divided by the applicable number of shares to arrive at basic earnings per share. For the diluted earnings, the denominator includes all outstanding shares of common stock and all potential shares of common stock assumed issued if they are dilutive. The numerator is adjusted for any changes in income or loss that would result from the assumed conversion of these potential shares of common stock.
The table below presents the computation of basic and diluted net income (loss) per share of common stock for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 ($ in thousands except per share data):

| Three months ended June 30, |  | Six months ended June 30, |
| 2023 |  | 2022 |  | 2023 |  | 2022 |
Basic Earnings |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Net income (loss) | $ | (83,400) |  |  | $ | 70,951 |  |  | $ | (34,484) |  |  | $ | 86,189 |  |
Less: Preferred dividends | (3,068) |  |  | (3,068) |  |  | (6,136) |  |  | (6,136) |  |
Net income (loss) available to common stockholders | $ | (86,468) |  |  | $ | 67,883 |  |  | $ | (40,620) |  |  | $ | 80,053 |  |
Less: Dividends on participating securities | (997) |  |  | (901) |  |  | (2,000) |  |  | (1,800) |  |
Basic Earnings | $ | (87,465) |  |  | $ | 66,982 |  |  | $ | (42,620) |  |  | $ | 78,253 |  |
Diluted Earnings |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Basic Earnings | $ | (87,465) |  |  | $ | 66,982 |  |  | $ | (42,620) |  |  | $ | 78,253 |  |
Add: Dividends on participating securities | — |  |  | 901 |  |  | — |  |  | — |  |
Add: Interest expense on Convertible Notes | — |  |  | 7,464 |  |  | — |  |  | 14,924 |  |
Diluted Earnings | $ | (87,465) |  |  | $ | 75,347 |  |  | $ | (42,620) |  |  | $ | 93,177 |  |
Number of Shares: |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Basic weighted-average shares of common stock outstanding | 141,341,238 |  |  | 140,590,843 |  |  | 141,207,597 |  |  | 140,472,771 |  |
Diluted weighted-average shares of common stock outstanding | 141,341,238 |  |  | 171,698,185 |  |  | 141,207,597 |  |  | 169,006,042 |  |
Earnings (Loss) Per Share Attributable to Common Stockholders |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Basic | $ | (0.62) |  |  | $ | 0.48 |  |  | $ | (0.30) |  |  | $ | 0.56 |  |
Diluted | $ | (0.62) |  |  | $ | 0.44 |  |  | $ | (0.30) |  |  | $ | 0.55 |  |

The dilutive effect to earnings per share is determined using the "if-converted" method whereby interest expense on the outstanding Convertible Notes is added back to the diluted earnings per share numerator, and all of the potentially dilutive shares are included in the diluted earnings per share denominator. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, 10,485,087 and 10,835,571, respectively, weighted-average potentially issuable shares with respect to the Convertible Notes were excluded in the dilutive earnings per share denominator because the effect was anti-dilutive. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, 28,533,271 we ighted-average potentially issuable shares with respect to the Convertible Notes were included in the dilutive earnings per share denominator because the effect was dilutive. Refer to "Note 10 - Convertible Senior Notes, Net" for further discussion.
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, 2,849,286 and 3,034,394 weighted-average unvested RSUs were
34

excluded in the calculation of diluted net income per share because the effect was anti-dilutive. For the three months ended June 30, 2022, 2,574,071 weighted-average unvested RSUs, were included in the calculation of diluted net income per share because the effect was dilutive. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, 2,738,424 weighted-average unvested RSUs, were excluded in the calculation of diluted net income per share because the effect was anti-dilutive.
Note 20 – Subsequent Events
Subsequent to the quarter ended June 30, 2023, the following events took place:
Investment Activity: We funded approximately $31.7 million for previously closed loans and capitalized an additional $4.8 million of construction and financing costs related to our real estate owned, held for investment.
Loan Repayments: We received approximately $42.5 million from loan repayments, including a $20.0 million full repayment of one of our subordinate loans secured by our interest in a hotel property located in Las Vegas, NV.

Overview
We are a Maryland corporation and have elected to be taxed as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes. We primarily originate, acquire, invest in and manage performing commercial first mortgage loans, subordinate financings, and other commercial real estate-related debt investments. These asset classes are referred to as our target assets.
We are externally managed and advised by the Manager, an indirect subsidiary of Apollo, a global, high-growth alternative asset manager with assets under management of approximately $597.7 billion as of March 31, 2023.
The Manager is led by an experienced team of senior real estate professionals who have significant expertise in underwriting and structuring commercial real estate financing transactions. We benefit from Apollo’s global infrastructure and operating platform, through which we are able to source, evaluate and manage potential investments in our target assets.
Current Market Conditions
Certain external events such as public health issues, including the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, natural disasters and geopolitical events, including the ongoing conflict between Russia, Belarus and Ukraine, have adversely impacted the global economy and have contributed to significant volatility in financial markets. Due to various uncertainties caused by such external events and recent macroeconomic trends, including inflation and rising interest rates, further business risks could arise. Some of the factors that impacted us to date and may continue to affect us are outlined in Item 1A. "Risk Factors" in our most
36

recent Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Critical Accounting Policies and Use of Estimates
Our financial statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP, which requires the use of estimates and assumptions that involve the exercise of judgment and use of assumptions as to future uncertainties. The most critical accounting policies involve decisions and assessments that affect our reported assets and liabilities, as well as reported revenues and expenses. We believe that all of the decisions and assessments upon which these financial statements are based are reasonable based upon information currently available to us. The accounting policies and estimates that we consider to be most critical to an investor’s understanding of our financial results and condition and require complex management judgment are discussed below.
There have been no material changes to our Critical Accounting Policies described in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K under "Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Critical Accounting Policies and Use of Estimates."
For a complete listing and description of our significant accounting policies, refer to "Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" to our consolidated financial statements of our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Real Estate Owned (and Related Debt)
In order to maximize recovery against a defaulted loan, we may assume legal title or physical possession of the underlying collateral through foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure. Foreclosed properties are classified as real estate owned and recognized at fair value on our consolidated balance sheets in accordance with the acquisition method under ASC Topic 805, “Business Combinations.” Real estate assets acquired may include land, building, furniture, fixtures and equipment, and intangible assets. In accordance ASC 820, "Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures," we may utilize the income, market or cost approach (or combination thereof) to determine fair value.
When determining the fair value of a real estate asset under the income approach, we make certain assumptions including, but not limited to, consideration of projected operating cash flows, comparable selling prices and projected cash flows from the eventual disposition of the real estate asset based upon our estimate of a capitalization rate and discount rate.
When determining the fair value of real estate assets under the market or sales comparison approach, we compare the property to similar properties in the marketplace. Although we exercise significant judgment to identify similar properties, and may also consult independent third-party valuation experts to assist, our assessment of fair value is subject to uncertainty and sensitive to our selection of comparable properties.
When determining the fair value or real estate assets under the cost approach, we measure fair value as the replacement cost of these assets. This approach also requires significant judgment, and our estimate of replacement cost could vary from actual replacements costs.
At times we may classify real estate assets as held for sale in the period in which they meet the criteria under ASC Topic 360, "Property, Plant, and Equipment" as discussed in "Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" to our consolidated financial statements of our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K. Once a real estate asset is classified as held for sale, depreciation is no longer recorded, and the asset is reported at the lower of its carrying value or fair value less cost to sell. The fair value of real estate assets classified as held for sale is determined using the appropriate methodologies noted in the preceding paragraph and the real estate asset's fair value is subject to uncertainty, as the actual sales price of the real estate asset could differ from those assumed in our valuations.
Once real estate assets have been recorded at fair value, they are evaluated for impairment on a quarterly basis. A real estate asset is considered impaired when the sum of estimated future undiscounted cash flows to be generated by the real estate asset over the estimated remaining holding period is less than the carrying value of such real estate asset. An impairment charge is recorded equal to the excess of the carrying value of the real estate asset over the fair value. When determining the fair value of a real estate asset for the purpose of assessing impairment, we make certain assumptions including, but not limited to: consideration of projected operating cash flows, intended holding period of the real estate, comparable selling prices and projected cash flows from the eventual disposition of the real estate based upon our estimate of a capitalization rate and discount rate. While we exercise significant judgment in generating our assumptions, the asset’s fair value is subject to uncertainty, as actual operating cash flows and disposition proceeds could differ from those assumed in our valuations. Additionally, the output is sensitive to the assumptions used in calculating any potential impairment.
Please refer to "Note 3 – Fair Value Disclosure," and "Note 5 – Assets and Liabilities Related to Real Estate Owned” for more information regarding real estate owned and our valuation methodology as well as "Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" to our consolidated financial statements of our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Current Expected Credit Losses ("CECL")
We measure and record potential expected credit losses related to our loan portfolio in accordance with the CECL Standard. The CECL Standard requires an entity to consider historical loss experience, current conditions, and a reasonable and supportable forecast of the macroeconomic environment. We have adopted the WARM method to determine a General CECL Allowance for the majority of loans in our portfolio, applied on a collective basis by assets with similar risk characteristics. If we determine that a borrower or sponsor is experiencing financial difficulty, we will record loan-specific allowances (our Specific CECL Allowance) in accordance with a practical expedient prescribed by the CECL Standard.
General CECL Allowance
There are a number of significant assumptions required to estimate our General CECL Allowance which include deriving and applying an annual historical loss rate, estimating the impacts of current and future macroeconomic conditions and forecasting the timing of expected repayments, satisfactions and future fundings.
We derive an annual historical loss rate based on a CMBS database with historical losses from 1998 through the second quarter of 2023 provided by a third party, Trepp LLC. We apply various filters to arrive at a CMBS dataset most analogous to our current portfolio from which we determine an appropriate historical loss rate. This historical loss rate, and ultimately the General CECL Allowance we derive, is sensitive to the CMBS dataset we select.
We adjust our determined annual historical loss rate based on our outlook of the macroeconomic environment, for a reasonable and supportable forecast period. Selection of a forecast period is a matter of judgement and our General CECL Allowance is sensitive to this input.
We develop our expectations for the future macroeconomic environment and its potential impact on the performance of loans in our portfolio, by analyzing various market factors, such as unemployment rate, market liquidity and price indexes relevant to commercial real estate sector. This assessment requires the use of significant judgment in selecting relevant market factors and analyzing their correlation with historical loss rates. The future macroeconomic environment is subject to uncertainty as the actual future macroeconomic environment could vary from our expectations.
Additionally, there are assumptions provided to us by the Manager that represent their best estimate as to loan expected term, future fundings, and timing of loan repayments. These assumptions, although made with the most available information at the time of the estimate, are subjective and actual activity may not follow the estimated schedule. These assumptions impact the future balances that the loss rate will be applied to and as such impact our General CECL Allowance. As we acquire new loans and the Manager monitors loan and sponsor performance, these estimates may change each period. Refer to “Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” and “Note 4 - Commercial Mortgage Loans, Subordinate Loans and Other Lending Assets, Net” for further discussion regarding our General CECL Allowance.
Specific CECL Allowance
When we determine that a borrower or sponsor is experiencing financial difficulty, we evaluate the related loan for loan-specific allowances, under the practical expedient prescribed by the CECL Standard. Determining that a borrower or sponsor is experiencing financial difficulty requires the use of significant judgment and can be based on several factors subject to uncertainty. These factors can include, but are not limited to, whether cash from the borrower's operations are sufficient to cover current and future debt service requirements, the borrower’s ability to potentially refinance the loan, and other circumstances that can affect the borrower’s ability to satisfy their obligations in accordance the terms of the loan. When utilizing the practical expedient for collateral dependent loans, the current expected credit losses is determined as the difference between the fair value of the underlying collateral, adjusted for estimated costs to sell when applicable, and the carrying value of the loan (prior to the current expected credit losses), as repayment or satisfaction of a loan is dependent on a sale of the underlying collateral. Collateral-dependent loans evaluated for a Specific CECL Allowance are removed from the General CECL pool.
The fair value of the underlying collateral is determined by using method(s) such as discounted cash flow, the market approach, or direct capitalization approach. These methods require the use of key unobservable inputs, which are inherently uncertain and subjective. Our estimate of fair value is sensitive to both the valuation methodology selected and inputs used. Determining a suitable valuation method and selecting the appropriate key unobservable inputs and assumptions requires significant judgment and consideration of factors specific to the underlying collateral being assessed. Additionally, the key unobservable inputs and assumptions used may vary depending on the information available to us and market conditions as of the valuation date. As such, the fair value that we derive and use in calculating our Specific CECL Allowance, is subject to uncertainty and any actual losses, if incurred, could differ materially from our current expected credit losses. Refer to “Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” and “Note 4 - Commercial Mortgage Loans, Subordinate Loans and Other Lending Assets, Net” for further discussion regarding our Specific CECL Allowance.

Portfolio Management
40

Due to the impact of COVID-19, including longer-term macroeconomic effects on supply chains, inflation and labor shortages, some of our borrowers have experienced challenges which have prevented the execution of their business plans and in some cases, resulted in temporary closures. As a result, we have worked with borrowers to execute loan modifications which are typically coupled with additional equity contributions from borrowers. Loan modifications to date have included repurposing of reserves, temporary deferrals of interest or principal, and partial deferral of coupon interest as payment-in-kind interest.
Investment Activity
During the six months ended June 30, 2023, we committed $181.9 million of capital to loans ($181.0 million was funded at closing), including $174.0 million in connection with the refinancing of two floating rate first mortgages. In addition, during the six months ended June 30, 2023, we funded $244.9 million for loans closed prior to 2023 and received $0.7 billion in repayments, including $0.1 billion from loan sales.
Net Income (Loss) Available to Common Stockholders
For the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, our net income (loss) available to common stockholders was $(86.5) million, or $(0.62) per diluted share of common stock, and $67.9 million, or $0.44 per diluted share of common stock, respectively.
For the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, our net income (loss) available to common stockholders was $(40.6) million, or $(0.30) per diluted share of common stock, and $80.1 million, or $0.55 per diluted share of common stock, respectively.

Net Interest Income
Net interest income decreased by $8.0 million during the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2023. The decrease in net interest income was primarily attributable to placing a first mortgage loan and a mezzanine loan, collateralized by the same ultra-luxury residential-for-sale property in Manhattan, on non-accrual status during the three months ended June 30, 2023.
Operations Related to Real Estate
For the three months ended June 30, 2023 we recorded net income related to real estate owned of $7.0 million, compared to $1.9 million of net loss related to real estate owned for the three months ended March 31, 2023. This increase was due to a $4.6 million increase in net income from operations, prior to depreciation, related to the D.C Hotel, primarily driven by seasonally higher hotel occupancy, and $2.6 million in net income from operations, prior to depreciation, related to the Atlanta Hotel which we acquired on March 31, 2023 through a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure. Additionally, depreciation expense related to the D.C. Hotel decreased during the three months ended June 30, 2023 due to "catch-up" depreciation recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2023 for the period in which the D.C. Hotel was held for sale through the March 1, 2023 date of reclassification.
Refer to "Note 5 - Real Estate Owned" for full discussion of the reclassification and operations related to real estate owned.
General and administrative expenses
General and administrative expenses increased by $0.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2023. The increase was primarily driven by increased legal costs and reimbursements paid to the Manager during the three months ended June 30, 2023.
Management fees to related party
42

Management fee expense decreased by $0.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2023. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in stockholders' equity (as defined in the Management Agreement) during the three months ended June 30, 2023.
Other income
Other income increased by $1.6 million during the three months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2023 primarily due to an increase in bank interest earned on our cash balances and money market funds as a result of a higher interest rate environment.
Net realized loss on investments
During the three months ended June 30, 2023, we recorded $82.0 million net realized loss on investments, compared to a net realized loss of $4.6 million recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2023
During the three months ended March 31, 2023, we acquired legal title of the Atlanta Hotel that secured one of our first commercial mortgage loans through a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure. We recorded a realized loss of $4.8 million in connection with the acquisition. The realized loss was offset by a gain on investments of $0.2 million in connection with the sale of our entire interest in three commercial loans secured by properties in Europe and a partial interest in one commercial loan secured by property located in London, UK. Refer "Note 4 - Commercial Mortgage Loans, Subordinate Loans and Other Lending Assets, Net" for further discussion.
During the three months ended June 30, 2023, we recorded an $82.0 million realized loss on investments representing a write-off of previously recorded Specific CECL Allowance on one of our subordinate loans secured by an ultra-luxury residential property in Manhattan, NY. Refer to Note 4 - Commercial Mortgage Loans, Subordinate Loans and Other Lending Assets, Net" for additional detail.
Increase in Specific CECL Allowance, net
During the three months ended June 30, 2023, we recorded a $141.5 million increase to our Specific CECL Allowance, related to two mezzanine loans secured by the same ultra-luxury residential property in Manhattan, NY. As of June 30, 2023, $82.0 million related to the most junior mezzanine loan was deemed unrecoverable. Accordingly, $82.0 million of previously recorded Specific CECL was written-off and recorded as a realized loss within net realized loss on investments in our June 30, 2023 condensed consolidated statement of operations. Comparatively, during the three months ended March 31, 2023, there was no change to our Specific CECL Allowance.

Our General CECL Allowance increased by $2.1 million during the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to an increase of $4.4 million during the three months ended March 31, 2023. The increase in General CECL Allowance recorded during the three months ended June 30, 2023 was primarily driven by a more adverse macroeconomic outlook and an increase in our view of the remaining expected term of certain of our loans. This increase was partially offset by the impact of portfolio seasoning.
The $4.4 million increase in General CECL Allowance recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2023 was primarily driven by an increase in our view of the remaining expected term of our loan portfolio based on current macroeconomic outlook, partially offset by the effects of portfolio seasoning and loan repayments and sales.
Refer "Note 4 - Commercial Mortgage Loans, Subordinate Loans and Other Lending Assets, Net" for additional information related to our General CECL Allowance.
Realized Gain on Extinguishment of Debt
Realized gain on extinguishment of debt remained generally the same during the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2023. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, we repurchased $7.1 million aggregate principal amount of the 2023 Notes at a price of 97.0% and recorded a realized gain of $0.2 million. During the three months ended June 30, 2023, we repurchased an additional $36.8 million aggregate principal amount of the 2023 Notes at a weighted average price of 99.3%, and recorded a realized gain of $0.3 million.
Foreign currency gain and loss on derivative instruments
43

We use forward currency contracts to economically hedge interest and principal repayments under our loans denominated in currencies other than USD. Foreign currency gains and losses on derivative instruments are evaluated on a combined basis and the net impact for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and three months ended March 31, 2023 was a net gain of $4.4 million and $4.5 million, respectively.
During the three months ended June 30, 2023, foreign exchange rates continued to rise in relation to USD at a greater pace compared to the three months ended March 31, 2023. The greater increase in foreign exchange rates resulted in an increase in the loss on our foreign currency forward contracts and an increase in the gain related to foreign currency translation. Additionally, we recognized lower realized gains on foreign currency forward contracts during the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2023. The lower realized gains were attributable, along with other drivers, to the unwind of interest hedges associated with the sale of three commercial mortgage loans secured by various properties in Europe during the three months ended March 31, 2023 as discussed in "Note 4 - Commercial Mortgage Loans, Subordinate Loans and Other Lending Assets, Net."
Gain (loss) on interest rate hedges
In May 2019, we entered into the 2026 Term Loan. During the second quarter of 2020, we entered into a three-year interest rate cap to cap LIBOR at 0.75%. This interest rate cap effectively limited the maximum all-in coupon on the 2026 Term Loan to 3.50%. During the three months ended June 30, 2023 and three months ended March 31, 2023, the interest rate cap had a net gain of $0.1 million and a net loss of $0.1 million, inclusive of realized gains of $4.4 million and $4.7 million, respectively. The decrease in realized gain quarter over quarter is attributable to the maturity of the interest rate cap during the second quarter of 2023.

Net Interest Income
Net interest income increased by $21.4 million during the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022. The increase was primarily driven by an increase in interest income from commercial mortgage loans attributable to higher average index rates during the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022. This increase was partially offset by increased interest expense due to higher average index rates, and a decrease in interest income from placing a first mortgage loan and subordinate loan collateralized by the same ultra-luxury residential-for-sale property in Manhattan on non-accrual status.
Operations Related to Real Estate
Net income related to real estate owned increased by $1.0 million during the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022. The increase was primarily driven by improved operating results of the D.C. Hotel.
This increase was partially offset by a $5.5 million increase in depreciation expense for the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022, which was primarily related to the reclassification of our D.C. Hotel from held for sale to held for investment. As of March 1, 2022 we reclassified the hotel to held for sale and ceased recording depreciation from this date until March 1, 2023 when the asset was reclassified to held for investment. Accordingly, upon reclassification to held for investment, we recorded depreciation expense representing the amount that would have been recorded had the asset been consistently classified as held for investment for this period.
Refer to "Note 5 - Real Estate Owned" for full discussion of the reclassification and operations related to real estate owned.
General and administrative expenses
General and administrative expenses remained generally the same for the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022.
Management fees to related party
Management fee expense remained generally the same for the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022.
Other income
Other income increased by $3.0 million during the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022, primarily due to an increase in bank interest earned on our cash balances and money market funds as a result of a higher interest rate environment.
Net realized loss on investments
During the six months ended June 30, 2023, we recorded an $86.6 million net realized loss on investments primarily consisting of i) a $4.8 million realized loss related to the acquisition of our Atlanta Hotel through a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure and ii) a $82.0 million realized loss on investments representing a write-off of previously recorded Specific CECL Allowance on one of our subordinate loans secured by an ultra-luxury residential property in Manhattan, NY. These losses were partially offset by a $0.2 million gain on investments recorded in connection with the sale of our entire interest in three commercial loans secured by properties in Europe and a partial interest in one commercial loan secured by property located in London, UK.
We recorded no realized gains or losses on investments for the six months ended June 30, 2022.
Refer to Note 4 - Commercial Mortgage Loans, Subordinate Loans and Other Lending Assets, Net" and "Note 5 - Real Estate Owned" for additional detail.

Increase in Specific CECL Allowance, net
During the six months ended June 30, 2023, we recorded a net increase to our Specific CECL Allowance of $59.5 million compared to a net increase of $27.0 million recorded during the six months ended June 30, 2022.
During the six months ended June 30, 2023, we recorded a $141.5 million increase to our Specific CECL Allowance, related to two mezzanine loans secured by the same ultra-luxury residential property in Manhattan, NY. As of June 30, 2023, $82.0 million related to the most junior mezzanine loan was deemed unrecoverable. Accordingly, $82.0 million of previously recorded Specific CECL was written-off and recorded as a realized loss within net realized loss on investments in our June 30, 2023 condensed consolidated statement of operations.
During the six months ended June 30, 2022, we recorded a $27.0 million net increase to our Specific CECL Allowance which was comprised of i) a $30.0 million allowance on most junior mezzanine loan secured by the aforementioned ultra-luxury residential property in Manhattan, NY ii) a $7.0 million allowance on the loan previously secured by our Atlanta Hotel and iii) a $10.0 million reversal of previously recorded allowance related to the loan previously secured by our Brooklyn Development.
Decrease (increase) in General CECL Allowance, net
For the six months ended June 30, 2023, we recorded a net increase to our General CECL Allowance of $6.5 million compared to a net decrease of $9.3 million for six months ended June 30, 2022. The increase recorded during the six months ended June 30, 2023, was primarily driven by an increase in our view of the remaining expected term of certain of our loans and a more adverse macroeconomic outlook, which was partially offset by the effects of portfolio seasoning.
During the six months ended June 30, 2022 the net decrease to our to our General CECL Allowance was largely due to changes in expected loan repayment dates and portfolio seasoning, which were partially offset by new loan originations.
Realized Gain on Extinguishment of Debt
During the six months ended June 30, 2023, we repurchased $43.9 million aggregate principal of the 2023 Notes, and realized a $0.5 million gain on extinguishment of debt. There was no repurchase activity for the six months ended June 30, 2022.
Foreign currency gain and loss on derivative instruments
Foreign currency gains and losses on derivative instruments are evaluated on a combined basis and the net impact for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and six months ended June 30, 2022 was a net gain of $8.9 million and $10.6 million, respectively.
During the six months ended June 30, 2023, foreign exchange rates increased in relation to USD resulting in a loss on our foreign currency forward contracts compared to a larger decrease in foreign exchange rates in relation to USD and resulting gain during the six months ended June 30, 2022.
We recognized less realized gains on foreign currency forward contracts during the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022. The lower realized gains were attributable, along with other drivers, to the unwinding of interest hedges associated with the sale of three commercial mortgage loans secured by various properties in Europe during the six months ended June 30, 2023 as discussed in "Note 4 - Commercial Mortgage Loans, Subordinate Loans and Other Lending Assets, Net."
Gain (loss) on interest rate hedges
During the six months ended June 30, 2023, the interest rate cap had a net loss of $0.1 million, inclusive of realized gains of $9.1 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the interest rate cap had a net gain of $9.8 million, with no realized gains. The increase in realized gain is attributable to LIBOR rates rising above the interest rate cap rate of 0.75% during the latter half of the second quarter of 2022 and continuing to rise through the second quarter of 2023.
Subsequent Events
Refer to "Note 20 - Subsequent Events" to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for disclosure regarding significant transactions that occurred subsequent to June 30, 2023.

Contractual Obligations, Liquidity, and Capital Resources
Liquidity is a measure of our ability to meet potential cash requirements, including ongoing commitments to fund and maintain our assets and operations, repay borrowings, make distributions to our stockholders and other general business needs. We utilize various sources of cash in order to meet our liquidity needs in the next twelve months, which is considered the short-term, and the longer term.
Our current debt obligations consist of $1.5 billion, at face value, of corporate debt and $5.4 billion of asset specific financings. Our corporate debt includes $773.3 million of term loan borrowings, $500.0 million of senior secured notes, and $186.1 million of convertible notes, which mature in October 2023. Our asset specific financings are generally tied to the underlying loans and we anticipate repayments of $365.3 million of secured debt arrangements in the short term. Specifics about our secured debt arrangements and corporate debt maturities and obligations are discussed below.
In addition to our debt obligations, as of June 30, 2023, we had $780.0 million of unfunded loan commitments. We expect that approximately $453.3 million will be funded to existing borrowers in the short term.
We have various sources of liquidity that we are able to use in order to satisfy our short and long term obligations. As of June 30, 2023 we had $308.1 million of cash on hand. As of June 30, 2023 we also held approximately $625.7 million of unencumbered assets, consisting of $363.8 million of senior mortgages and $261.9 million of mezzanine loans. Depending on market conditions, we may utilize additional borrowings as a source of cash, which may also include additional secured debt arrangements as well as other borrowings or conduct additional public and private debt and equity offerings.
We maintain policies relating to our use of leverage. See "Leverage Policies" below. In the future, we may seek to raise further equity or debt capital or engage in other forms of borrowings in order to fund future investments or to refinance expiring indebtedness.
We generally intend to hold our assets for investment, although we may sell certain of our investments in order to manage our interest rate risk and liquidity needs, meet other operating objectives and adapt to market conditions.
To maintain our qualification as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code, we must distribute annually at least 90% of our REIT taxable income, determined without regard to the deduction for dividends paid and excluding net capital gain. These distribution requirements limit our ability to retain earnings and replenish or increase capital for operations.

Secured Credit Facilities
As of June 30, 2023, we had entered into secured credit facilities with nine secured credit counterparties through wholly-owned subsidiaries. Terms under various master repurchase agreements vary by secured credit facility. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, we entered into secured credit facilities with Banco Santander, S.A., New York Branch and Churchill MRA Funding I LLC. Additionally, during the six months ended June 30, 2023 we increased our borrowing capacity on the Atlas Facility.
47

On February 8, 2023, in connection with the acquisition by certain subsidiaries of Atlas, which is a wholly-owned investment of a fund managed by an affiliate of the Manager, the Credit Suisse Facility was acquired by Atlas. In order to effect the assignment of the Credit Suisse Facility and related agreements, the Company and one of its subsidiaries, similar to the other sellers and guarantors party to the subject agreements in the Transaction, entered into an Omnibus Assignment, Assumption and Amendment Agreement as well as certain related agreements with Credit Suisse AG and Atlas. Refer to "Note 7 - Secured Debt Arrangements, Net" and "Note 14 - Related Party Transactions" of our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion regarding the transaction.
Revolving Credit Facility
During the first quarter of 2023, we entered into the $170.0 million Revolving Credit Facility administered by Bank of America, N.A. that matures in March 2026.
Refer to "Note 7 - Secured Debt Arrangements, Net" of our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional disclosure regarding our secured credit facilities.
Barclays Private Securitization
We are party to a private securitization with the Barclays Private Securitization. Commercial mortgage loans currently financed under the Barclays Securitization are denominated in GBP, EUR, SEK. As of June 30, 2023, we had £936.5 million, €478.9 million, and kr2.1 billion ($1.9 billion assuming conversion into USD) of borrowings outstanding under the Barclays Private Securitization secured by certain of our commercial mortgage loans.
Refer to "Note 7 - Secured Debt Arrangements, Net" of our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional disclosure regarding our Barclays Private Securitization.
Term Loans
In May 2019, we entered into the $500.0 million 2026 Term Loan and in March 2021, we entered into the $300.0 million 2028 Term Loan. The outstanding Term Loans principal balance as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 was $773.3 million and $777.3 million, respectively.
Refer to "Note 8 - Senior Secured Term Loans, Net" of our Consolidated Financial Statements for additional disclosure regarding our 2026 Term Loan and 2028 Term Loan.
Senior Secured Notes
In June 2021, we issued $500.0 million of the 4.625% 2029 Notes, for which we received net proceeds of $495.0 million, after deducting initial purchasers' discounts and commissions. The 2029 Notes had a carrying value of $495.2 million and $494.8 million, net of deferred financing costs of $4.8 million and $5.2 million, as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.
Refer to "Note 9 - Senior Secured Notes, Net" of our Consolidated Financial Statements for additional disclosure regarding our 2029 Notes.
Convertible Senior Notes
During the fourth quarter of 2018, we issued $230.0 million of the 5.375% 2023 Notes, for which we received $223.7 million after deducting the underwriting discount and offering expenses. During the first quarter of 2023, we repurchased $7.1 million aggregate principal amount of the 2023 Notes at a price of 97.0%. During the second quarter of 2023, we repurchased an additional $36.8 million aggregate principal amount of the 2023 Notes at a weighted average price of 99.3%. These transactions occurred in the open market as a result of reverse inquiries from investors with no solicitation from the Company. As a result of these transactions, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, we recorded a gain of $0.3 million and $0.5 million, respectively, within realized gain on extinguishment of debt in our June 30, 2023 condensed consolidated statement of operations. At June 30, 2023, the 2023 Notes had a carrying value of $185.9 million and an unamortized discount of $0.2 million.
Debt-to-Equity Ratio
The following table presents our debt-to-equity ratio:

| June 30, 2023 |  | December 31, 2022
Debt to Equity Ratio (1) | 2.9 |  | 2.8

———————
(1)Represents total debt less cash and loan proceeds held by se rvicer (recorded with Other Assets, see "Note 6 - Other Assets" for more information) to total stockholders' equity.
Leverage Policies
We use leverage for the sole purpose of financing our portfolio and not for the purpose of speculating on changes in interest rates. In addition to our secured debt arrangements and senior secured term loan, we access additional sources of borrowings. Our charter and bylaws do not limit the amount of indebtedness we can incur; however, we are subject to and carefully monitor the limits placed on us by our credit providers and those that assign ratings on our company.
At June 30, 2023, our debt-to-equity ratio was 2.9 and our portfolio was comprised of $7.8 billion of commercial mortgage loans and $0.5 billion of subordinate loans and other lending assets. In order to achieve our return on equity, we generally finance our mortgage loans with 2.0 to 3.0 turns of leverage and generally do not finance our subordinate loan portfolio given built-in inherent structural leverage. Consequently, depending on our portfolio mix, our debt-to-equity ratio may exceed our previously disclosed thresholds.
Investment Guidelines
Our current investment guidelines, approved by our board of directors, are comprised of the following:
•no investment will be made that would cause us to fail to qualify as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes;
•no investment will be made that would cause us to register as an investment company under the 1940 Act;
•investments will be predominantly in our target assets;
•no more than 20% of our net equity (on a consolidated basis) will be invested in any single investment at the time of the investment; in determining compliance with the investment guidelines, the amount of the investment is the net equity in the investment (gross investment less amount of third-party financing) plus the amount of any recourse on the financing secured by the investment; and
•until appropriate investments can be identified, the Manager may invest the proceeds of any offering in interest bearing, short-term investments, including money market accounts and/or funds, that are consistent with our intention to qualify as a REIT.
The board of directors must approve any change in or waiver to these investment guidelines.
Dividends
We intend to continue to make regular quarterly distributions to holders of our common stock. U.S. federal income tax law generally requires that a REIT distribute annually at least 90% of our REIT taxable income, without regard to the deduction for dividends paid and excluding net capital gains, and that we pay tax at regular corporate rates to the extent that we annually distribute less than 100% of our net taxable income. We generally intend over time to pay dividends to our stockholders in an amount equal to our net taxable income, if and to the extent authorized by our board of directors. Any distributions we make are at the discretion of our board of directors and depend upon, among other things, our actual results of operations. These results and our ability to pay distributions are affected by various factors, including the net interest and other income from our portfolio, our operating expenses and any other expenditures. If our cash available for distribution is less than our net taxable income, we could be required to sell assets or borrow funds to make cash distributions or we may make a portion of the required distribution in the form of a taxable stock distribution or distribution of debt securities.
As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we had 6,770,393 shares of our 7.25% Series B-1 Cumulative Redeemable Perpetual Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share ("Series B-1 Preferred Stock") outstanding. The Series B-1 Preferred Stock pay cumulative cash dividends, which are payable quarterly in equal amounts in arrears on the 15th day of each January, April, July and October: at a rate of 7.25% per annum of the $25.00 per share liquidation preference. Except under certain limited circumstances, the Series B-1 Preferred Stock is generally not convertible into or exchangeable for any other property or any other of our securities at the election of the holders. On and after July 15, 2026, we may, at our option, redeem the shares at a redemption price of $25.00, plus any accrued unpaid dividends to, but not including, the date of the redemption.
The following table details our dividend activity:

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Distributable Earnings
Distributable Earnings is defined as net income available to common stockholders, computed in accordance with GAAP, adjusted for (i) equity-based compensation expense (a portion of which may become cash-based upon final vesting and settlement of awards should the holder elect net share settlement to satisfy income tax withholding), (ii) any unrealized gains or losses or other non-cash items (including depreciation and amortization related to real estate owned) included in net income available to common stockholder s, (iii) unrealized income from unconsolidated joint ventures, (iv) foreign currency gains (losses), other than (a) realized gains/(losses) related to interest income, and (b) forward point gains/(losses) realized on our foreign currency hedges, (v) the non-cash amortization expense related to the reclassification of a portion of the Convertible Notes to stockholders’ equity in accordance with GAAP, and (vi) provision for loan losses. Distributable Earnings may also be adjusted to exclude certain other non-cash items, as determined by the Manager and approved by a majority of our independent directors.
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, our Distributable Earnings wer e $(15.9) million, or $(0.11) per share, and $53.3 million, or $0.37 per share, respectively, as compared to $49.5 million, or $0.35 per share, and $99.0 million, or $0.69 per share, respectively, for the same period in the prior year.
The weighted-average diluted shares outstanding used for Distributable Earnings per weighted-average diluted share has been adjusted from weighted-average diluted shares under GAAP to exclude shares issued from a potential conversion of the Convertible Notes. Consistent with the treatment of other unrealized adjustments to Distributable Earnings, these potentially issuable shares are excluded until a conversion occurs, which we believe is a useful presentation for investors. We believe that excluding shares issued in connection with a potential conversion of the Convertible Notes from our computation of Distributable Earnings per weighted average diluted share is useful to investors for various reasons, including the following: (i) conversion of Convertible Notes to shares requires both the holder of a note to elect to convert the Convertible Note and for us to elect to settle the conversion in the form of shares; (ii) future conversion decisions by note holders will be based on our stock price in the future, which is presently not determinable; (iii) the exclusion of shares issued in connection with a potential conversion of the Convertible Notes from the computation of Distributable Earnings per weighted-average diluted share is consistent with how we treat other unrealized items in our computation of Distributable Earnings per weighted-average diluted share; and (iv) we believe that when evaluating our operating performance, investors and potential investors consider our Distributable Earnings relative to our actual distributions, which are based on shares outstanding and not shares that might be issued in the future.
The table below summarizes the reconciliation from weighted-average diluted shares under GAAP to the weighted-average diluted shares used for Distributable Earnings:

As a REIT, U.S. federal income tax law generally requires us to distribute annually at least 90% of our REIT taxable income, without regard to the deduction for dividends paid and excluding net capital gains, and that we pay tax at regular corporate rates to the extent that we annually distribute less than 100% of our net taxable income. Given these requirements and our belief that dividends are generally one of the principal reasons stockholders invest in a REIT, we generally intend over time to pay dividends to our stockholders in an amount equal to our net taxable income, if and to the extent authorized by our board of directors. Distributable Earnings is a key factor considered by the board of directors in setting the dividend and as such we believe Distributable Earnings is useful to investors.

During the three months ended March 31, 2023, we recorded a net realized loss of $4.6 million on investments consisting of a realized loss related to the acquisition of a hotel property through a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure which was partially offset by a realized gain on loan sales. Refer to "Note 4 - Commercial Mortgage Loans, Subordinate Loans and Other Lending Assets, Net," and "Note 5 – Real Estate Owned" for further detail. Additionally, during the three months ended March 31, 2023, we recorded a gain on extinguishment of debt of $0.2 million related to a partial repurchase of our 2023 Notes. See "Note 10 - Convertible Senior Notes, Net" for full discussion of this transaction.
During the three months ended June 30, 2023, we recorded an $82.0 million realized loss on investments representing a write-off of previously recorded Specific CECL Allowance on one of our subordinate loans secured by an ultra-luxury residential property in Manhattan, NY. Refer to Note 4 - Commercial Mortgage Loans, Subordinate Loans and Other Lending Assets, Net" for additional detail. Additionally, during the three months ended June 30, 2023, we recorded a gain on extinguishment of debt of $0.3 million related to a partial repurchase of our 2023 Notes. See "Note 10 - Convertible Senior Notes, Net" for full discussion of this transaction.
We believe it is useful to our investors t o present Distributable Earnings prior to net realized losses on investments and realized gain on extinguishment of debt to reflect our operating results because (i) our operating results are primarily comprised of earning interest income on our investments net of borrowing and administrative costs, which comprise our ongoing operations and (ii) it has been a useful factor related to our dividend per share because it is one of the considerations when a dividend is determined. We believe that our investors use Distributable Earnings and Distributable Earnings prior to net realized loss on investments and realized gain on extinguishment of debt, or a comparable supplemental performance measure, to evaluate and compare the performance of our company and our peers.
A significant limitation associated with Distributable Earnings as a measure of our financial performance over any period is that it excludes unrealized gains (losses) from investments. In addition, our presentation of Distributable Earnings may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures of other companies, that use different calculations. As a result, Distributable Earnings should not be considered as a substitute for our GAAP net income as a measure of our financial performance or any measure of our liquidity under GAAP. Distributable Earnings are reduced for realized losses on loans which include losses that management believes are near certain to be realized.

General CECL Allowance and depreciation and amortization | (0.33) |
Book value per share at June 30, 2023 | $ | 14.47 |

(1)Includes net unrealized loss on forward currency contracts and interest hedges, and realized gain on forward currency contracts related to principal outside impact of forward points.
We believe that presenting book value per share with sub-totals prior to the CECL Allowances and depreciation and amortization is useful for investors for various reasons, including, among other things, analyzing our compliance with financial covenants related to tangible net worth and debt-to-equity under our secured debt arrangements and senior secured term loan, which permit us to add the General CECL Allowance to our GAAP stockholders' equity. Given that our lenders consider book value per share prior to the General CECL Allowance as an important metric related to our debt covenants, we believe disclosing book value per share prior to the General CECL Allowance is important to investors such that they have the same visibility. We further believe that presenting book value before depreciation and amortization is useful to investors since it is a non-cash expense included in net income and is not representative of our core business and ongoing operations.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
We seek to manage our risks related to the credit quality of our assets, interest rates, liquidity, prepayment speeds, and market value, while, at the same time, seeking to provide an opportunity to stockholders to realize attractive risk-adjusted returns through ownership of our capital stock. While risks are inherent in any business enterprise, we seek to quantify and justify risks in light of available returns and to maintain capital levels consistent with the risks we undertake.
Credit Risk
One of our strategic focuses is acquiring assets that we believe to be of high credit quality. We believe this strategy will generally keep our credit losses and financing costs low. However, we are subject to varying degrees of credit risk in connection with our other target assets. We seek to mitigate this risk by seeking to acquire high quality assets, at appropriate prices given anticipated and unanticipated losses, and by deploying a value-driven approach to underwriting and diligence, consistent with the Manager’s historical investment strategy, with a focus on current cash flows and potential risks to cash flow. The Manager seeks to enhance its due diligence and underwriting efforts by accessing the Manager’s knowledge base and industry contacts. Nevertheless, unanticipated credit losses could occur, which could adversely impact our operating results.
Interest Rate Risk
Interest rates are highly sensitive to many factors, including fiscal and monetary policies, and domestic and international economic and political considerations, as well as other factors beyond our control. We are subject to interest rate risk in connection with our target assets and our related financing obligations.
To the extent consistent with maintaining our REIT qualification, we seek to manage risk exposure to protect our portfolio of financial assets against the effects of major interest rate changes. We generally seek to manage this risk by:
•attempting to structure our financing agreements to have a range of different maturities, terms, amortizations and interest rate adjustment periods;
•using hedging instruments and interest rate swaps, when we deem appropriate; and
•to the extent available and appropriate, using securitization financing to better match the maturity of our financing with the duration of our assets.
The following table estimates the hypothetical impact on our net interest income for the twelve-month period following June 30, 2023, assuming an immediate increase or decrease of 50 basis points in the applicable interest rate benchmark by currency ($ in thousands, except per share data):

———————
(1)Any such hypothetical impact on interest rates on our variable rate borrowings does not consider the effect of any change in overall economic activity that could occur in a rising or falling interest rate environment. Further, in the event of a change in interest rates of that magnitude, we may take actions to further mitigate our exposure to such a change. However, due to the uncertainty of the specific actions that would be taken and their possible effects, this analysis assumes no changes in our financial structure.
(2)Certain of our floating rate loans are subject to index floors.
Prepayment Risk
Prepayment risk is the risk that principal will be repaid at a different rate than anticipated, causing the return on an asset to be less than expected. In certain cases, we adapt to prepayment risk by stating prepayment penalties in loan agreements.
Market Risk
54

Commercial mortgage assets are subject to volatility and may be affected adversely by a number of factors, including, but not limited to, national, regional and local economic conditions (which may be adversely affected by industry slowdowns and other factors); local real estate conditions; changes or continued weakness in specific industry segments; construction quality, age and design; demographic factors; retroactive changes to building or similar codes; pandemics; natural disasters and other acts of god. In addition, decreases in property values reduce the value of the collateral and the potential proceeds available to a borrower to repay the underlying loans or loans, as the case may be, which could also cause us to suffer losses. Market volatility has been particularly heightened due to the COVID-19 pandemic. COVID-19 and its variants have disrupted economic activities and could have a continued significant adverse effect on economic and market conditions including rising inflation, increases in interest rates, limited lending from financial institutions, depressed asset values, and limited market liquidity.
Inflation
Virtually all of our assets and liabilities are interest rate sensitive in nature. As a result, interest rates and other factors influence our performance far more so than does inflation. Changes in interest rates do not necessarily correlate with inflation rates or changes in inflation rates. Our financial statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP and distributions are determined by our board of directors consistent with our obligation to distribute to our stockholders at least 90% of our REIT taxable income, excluding net capital gains and determined without regard to the dividends paid deduction, on an annual basis in order to maintain our REIT qualification. In each case, our activities and balance sheets are measured with reference to historical cost and/or fair market value without considering inflation.
Currency Risk
Some of our loans and secured debt arrangements are denominated in a foreign currency and subject to risks related to fluctuations in currency rates. We seek to mitigate this exposure through foreign currency forward contracts, which match the net principal and interest of our foreign currency loans and secured debt arrangements.
