NOTE 2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The summary of significant accounting policies presented below is designed to assist in understanding the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. These accounting policies conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) in all material respects, and have been consistently applied in preparing the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.
Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation
The condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC regarding interim financial reporting, including the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X, and do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, the statements for the interim periods presented include all adjustments, which are of a normal and recurring nature, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for such periods. Results for these interim periods are not necessarily indicative of full year results. The information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2020,2021, and related notes thereto, set forth in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.2021. The condensed consolidated financial statements should also be read in conjunction with Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, and its wholly-owned subsidiaries.subsidiaries, and the Consolidated Joint Venture in which the Company has a controlling financial interest. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
In determining whether the Company has controlling interests in an entity and the requirement to consolidate the accounts in that entity, the Company analyzes its credit and real estate investments in accordance with standards set forth in GAAP to determine whether they are variable interest entities (“VIEs”), and if so, whether the Company is the primary beneficiary. The Company’s judgment with respect to its level of influence or control over an entity and whether the Company is the primary beneficiary of a VIE involves consideration of various factors, including the form of the Company’s ownership interest, the Company’s voting interest, the size of the Company’s investment (including loans), and the Company’s ability to participate in major policy-making decisions. The Company’s ability to correctly assess its influence or control over an entity affects the presentation of these credit and real estate investments on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. As of June 30, 2022, the Company has determined that the Consolidated Joint Venture is considered a VIE. Applying the consolidation requirements for VIEs, the Company determined that it is the primary beneficiary based on its power to direct activities through its role as servicer and its obligations to absorb losses and right to receive benefits and therefore met the requirements for consolidation.

Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management 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 condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Real Estate Assets
Real estate assets are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization. The Company considers the period of future benefit of each respective asset to determine the appropriate useful life. The estimated useful lives of the Company’s real estate assets by class are generally as follows:
Buildings40 years
Site improvements15 years
Tenant improvementsLesser of useful life or lease term
Intangible lease assetsLease term
Recoverability of Real Estate Assets
The Company continually monitors events and changes in circumstances that could indicate that the carrying amounts of its real estate assets may not be recoverable. Impairment indicators that the Company considers include, but are not limited to: bankruptcy or other credit concerns of a property’s major tenant, such as a history of late payments, lease concessions and other factors; a significant decrease in a property’s revenues due to lease terminations; vacancies; co-tenancy clauses; reduced lease rates; and changes in anticipated holding periods.periods; and significant increases to budgeted costs for units under development. When indicators of potential impairment are present, the Company assesses the recoverability of the assets by determining whether the carrying amount of the assets will be recovered through the undiscounted future cash flows expected from the use of the assets and their eventual disposition. In the event that such expected undiscounted future cash flows do not exceed the carrying amount, the Company will adjust the real estate assets to their respective fair values and recognize an impairment loss. Generally, fair value is determined using a discounted cash flow analysis and recent comparable sales transactions. During the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2021,2022, as part of the Company’s quarterly impairment review procedures, the Company recorded impairment charges of $5.3$11.3 million related to 1118 properties, all of which impairment at 7 properties was due to sales prices that were less than their respective carrying values. Additionally, during the six months ended June 30, 2022, certain condominium units were deemed

The Company’s impairment assessment as of SeptemberJune 30, 20212022 was based on the most current information available to the Company, including expected holding periods. If the Company’s expected holding periods for assets change, subsequent tests for impairment could result in additional impairment charges in the future. The Company cannot provide any assurance that additional material impairment charges with respect to the Company’s real estate assets will not occur during 20212022 or in future periods. During the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2020,2021, the Company recorded impairment charges of $16.0$4.4 million related to 105 properties, of which impairment at 3 properties was due to revised cash flow estimates as a result of market conditionssales prices that were less than their respective carrying values and 1 propertyimpairment at 2 properties was due to a tenant bankruptcy.vacancy. The assumptions and uncertainties utilized in the evaluation of the impairment of real estate assets are discussed in detail in Note 3 — Fair Value Measurements. See also Note 4 — Real Estate Assets for further discussion regarding real estate investment activity.
Assets Held for Sale
When a real estate asset is identified by the Company as held for sale, the Company will cease recording depreciation and amortization of the assets related to the property and estimate its fair value, net of selling costs. If, in management’s opinion, the fair value, net of selling costs, of the asset is less than the carrying amount of the asset, an adjustment to the carrying amount is then recorded to reflect the estimated fair value of the property, net of selling costs. As of SeptemberJune 30, 2021,2022, the Company identified 1 property4 properties with a faircarrying value of $1.3$76.6 million as held for sale, 1 of which is in connection with the Purchase and Sale Agreement (as defined in Note 4 — Real Estate Assets). The Company had a mortgage note payable of $42.8 million that was related to the held for sale property in connection with the Purchase and Sale Agreement, which was soldassumed by the buyer in connection with the disposition of the underlying held for sale property. The Company disposed of these properties subsequent to SeptemberJune 30, 2021 at a gain of $16,000.2022, as further discussed in Note 17 — Subsequent Events. As of December 31, 2020,2021, in connection with the Purchase and Sale Agreement, the Company identified 1 property81 properties with a faircarrying value of $3.5 million$1.3 billion as held for sale, of which was soldthe sale of 80 such properties closed during the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2021. No gain or loss was recognized on this disposition.2022.
DispositionDispositions of Real Estate Assets
Gains and losses from dispositions are recognized once the various criteria relating to the terms of sale and any subsequent involvement by the Company with the asset sold are met. A discontinued operation includes only the disposal of a component of an entity and represents a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on an entity’s financial results. The Company’s dispositions during the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20212022 and 20202021 did not qualify for discontinued operations

presentation and thus, the results of the properties and condominiums that were sold will remain in operating income, and any associated gains or losses from the dispositiondispositions are included in gain on disposition of real estate and condominium developments, net. See Note 4 — Real Estate Assets for a discussion of the disposition of individual properties and condominiums during the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2021.2022.
Allocation of Purchase Price of Real Estate Assets
Upon the acquisition of real properties, the Company allocates the purchase price to acquired tangible assets, consisting of land, buildings and improvements, and to identified intangible assets and liabilities, consisting of the value of above- and below-market leases and the value of in-place leases and other intangibles, based in each case on their relative fair values. The Company utilizes independent appraisals to assist in the determination of the fair values of the tangible assets of an acquired property (which includes land and buildings). The information in the appraisal, along with any additional information available to the Company’s management, is used in estimating the amount of the purchase price that is allocated to land. Other information in the appraisal, such as building value and market rents, may be used by the Company’s management in estimating the allocation of purchase price to the building and to intangible lease assets and liabilities. The appraisal firm has no involvement in management’s allocation decisions other than providing this market information.
The determination of the fair values of the real estate assets and liabilities acquired requires the use of significant assumptions with regard to the current market rental rates, rental growth rates, capitalization and discount rates, interest rates and other variables. The use of alternative estimates may result in a different allocation of the Company’s purchase price, which could materially impact the Company’s results of operations.
Certain acquisition-related expenses related to asset acquisitions are capitalized and allocated to tangible and intangible assets and liabilities, as described above. Acquisition-related manager expense reimbursements are expensed as incurred and are included in expense reimbursements to related parties in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations. Other acquisition-related expenses continue to be expensed as incurred and are included in transaction-related expenses in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations.

estimated fair value with unrealized gains and losses reported in other comprehensive (loss) income. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company invested $259.2 million in CMBS. As of June 30, 2022, the Company had investments in 10 CMBS with an estimated aggregate fair value of $227.4 million.
In addition, the Company had an investment in an equity security with an estimated aggregate fair value of $47.0 million as of June 30, 2022, which is comprised of RTL Common Stock (as defined in Note 4 — Real Estate Assets) received as consideration in connection with the Purchase and Sale Agreement. These investments are carried at their estimated fair value with unrealized gains and losses reported on the condensed consolidated statements of operations. Dividends received are recorded in interest income on the condensed consolidated statements of operations.
The Company monitors its available-for-sale securities for changes in fair value. An allowance for credit losses is recorded when the Company acquires CMBS, and any subsequent impairmentA loss is recognized when the Company determines that a decline in the estimated fair value of a security below its amortized cost has resulted from a credit loss or other factors. The Company records impairments related to credit losses through the allowance forcurrent expected credit losses. However, the allowance is limited by the amount that the fair value is less than the amortized cost basis. The Company considers many factors in determining whether a credit loss exists, including, but not limited to, the extent to which the fair value is less than the amortized cost basis, recent events specific to the security, industry or geographic area, the payment structure of the security, the failure of the issuer of the security to make scheduled interest or principal payments, and external credit ratings and recent changes in such ratings. The analysis of determining whether a credit loss exists requires significant judgments and assumptions. The use of alternative judgments and assumptions could result in a different conclusion.
During the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company invested $63.5 million in preferred unitsdid not record current expected credit losses related to a multi-family, office and retail building in Fort Lauderdale, Florida with a preferred dividend rate of 8.9% and a maturity date of June 1, 2022. As of September 30, 2021, the Company classified the investment as held-to-maturity as the Company has the intent and ability to hold the preferred units to maturity and included the investment in real estate-related securities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Investments classified as held-to-maturity are initially recognized at cost and are subsequently measured using amortized cost.CMBS.
The amortized cost of real estate-related securities is adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts to maturity computed under the effective interest method and is recorded in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations in interest income. Upon the sale of a security, the realized net gain or loss is computed on the specific identification method.
Interest earned is either received in cash or capitalized to real estate-related securities in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. Interest is capitalized when certain conditions are met as specified in each security agreement. During the three and ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2021,2022, the Company capitalized $703,000$274,000 and $546,000, respectively, of interest income to real estate-related securities. No such amounts were capitalized duringDuring the three and ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2020.2021, the Company capitalized $262,000 and $435,000, respectively, of interest income to real estate-related securities.
Loans Held-for-Investment
The Company has acquired, and may continue to acquire,Company’s loans held-for-investment include loans related to real estate assets. Additionally, the Company may acquire and originateassets, as well as credit investments, including commercial mortgage loans mezzanine loans, preferred equity, and other loans and securities related to commercial real estate assets, as well as corporate loan opportunities that are consistent with the Company’s investment strategy and objectives. The Company intends to hold the loans held-for-investment for the foreseeable future or until maturity. Loans held-for-investment are carried on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets at amortized cost, net of any allowance forcurrent expected credit losses. Discounts or premiums, origination fees and exit fees are amortized as a component of interest income using the effective interest method over the life of the respective loans, or on a straight-line basis when it approximates the effective interest method. Upon the sale of a loan, the realized net gain or loss is computed on the specific identification method.
Interest earned is either received in cash or capitalized to loans held-for-investment and related receivables, net in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. Interest is capitalized when certain conditions are met as specified in each loan agreement. During the three and ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2020,2022, the Company recorded $6.6 million and $19.4 million, respectively, incapitalized $62,000 of interest income on its credit investments, $539,000 of which was capitalized during the nine months ended September 30, 2020. No such amounts were capitalized during the three months ended September 30, 2020.to loans held-for-investment.
Accrual of interest income is suspended on nonaccrual loans. Loans that are past due 90 days or more as to principal or interest, or where reasonable doubt exists as to timely collection, are generally considered nonperforming and placed on nonaccrual status. Interest collected is recognized on a cash basis by crediting income when received. Loans may be restored to accrual status when all principal and interest are current and full repayment of the remaining contractual principal and interest are reasonably assured. As of SeptemberJune 30, 2021,2022, the Company did not have nonaccrual loans.
Allowance forCurrent Expected Credit Losses
The Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326) (“ASU 2016-13”), on January 1, 2020. The allowance forCurrent expected credit losses (“CECL”) required under ASU 2016-13 reflects the Company’s current estimate of potential credit losses related to the Company’s loans held-for-investment included in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The initial allowance for credit losses recorded on January 1, 2020 is reflected as a direct charge to retained earnings on the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of stockholders’ equity; however,

subsequent changescondensed consolidated balance sheets. Changes to the allowance forcurrent expected credit losses are recognized through net income on the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations. While ASU 2016-13 does not require any particular method for determining the allowance forcurrent expected credit losses, it does specify the allowancecurrent expected credit losses should be based on relevant information about past events, including historical loss experience, current portfolio and market conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts for the duration of each respective loan. In addition, other than a few narrow exceptions, ASU 2016-13 requires that all financial instruments subject to the credit loss model have some amount of loss reserve to reflect the GAAP principal underlying the credit loss model that all loans, debt securities, and similar assets have some inherent risk of loss, regardless of credit quality, subordinate capital, or other mitigating factors.
The Company estimates the current expected credit loss for its first mortgage loans primarily using the Weighted Average Remaining Maturity method, which has elected to use a discounted cash flow model to estimatebeen identified as an acceptable method for estimating CECL reserves in the allowance for credit losses.Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Staff Q&A Topic 326, No. 1. This modelmethod requires the Company to develop cash flows which project estimated credit lossesreference historic loan loss data across a comparable data set and apply such loss rate to each loan investment over its expected remaining term, taking into consideration expected economic conditions over the life of the loan and discount these cash flows at the asset’s effective interest rate. The Company then records an allowance for credit losses equal to the difference between the amortized cost basis of the asset and the present value of the expected cash flows.relevant timeframe. The Company considers loan investments that are both (i) expected to be substantially repaid through the operation or sale of the underlying collateral, and (ii) for which the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty, to be “collateral-dependent” loans. For such loans that the Company determines that foreclosure of the collateral is probable, the Company measures the expected losses based on the difference between the fair value of the collateral less costs to sell and the amortized cost basis of the loan as of the measurement date. For collateral-dependent loans that the Company determines foreclosure is not probable, the Company applies a practical expedient to estimate expected losses using the difference between the collateral’s fair value (less costs to sell the asset if repayment is expected through the sale of the collateral) and the amortized cost basis of the loan. For the Company’s broadly syndicatedliquid senior loans and corporate senior loans, the Company uses a probability of default and loss given default method using an underlying third-party CMBS/Commercial Real Estate (“CRE”) loan database with historical loan losses from 1998 to 2019.a comparable data set. The Company may use other acceptable alternative approaches in the future depending on, among other factors, the type of loan, underlying collateral, and availability of relevant historical market loan loss data.
The Company adopted ASU 2016-13 using the modified retrospective method for all financial assets measured at amortized cost. Prior to adoption, the Company had no allowance for credit losses on its condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Company recorded a cumulative-effective adjustment to the opening retained earnings in its condensed consolidated statement of stockholders’ equity as of January 1, 2020 of $2.0 million.
Quarterly, the Company evaluates the risk of all loans and assigns a risk rating based on a variety of factors, grouped as follows: (i) loan and credit structure, including the as-is loan-to-value (“LTV”) ratio and structural features; (ii) quality and stability of real estate value and operating cash flow, including debt yield, dynamics of the geography, property type and local market, physical condition, stability of cash flow, leasing velocity and quality and diversity of tenancy; (iii) performance against underwritten business plan; and (iv) quality, experience and financial condition of sponsor, borrower and guarantor(s).
Based on a 5-point scale, the Company’s loans are rated “1” through “5,” from least risk to greatest risk, respectively, which ratings are defined as follows:
1-Outperform — Most satisfactory asset quality and liquidity, good leverage capacity. A “1” rating maintains predictable and strong cash flows from operations. The trends and outlook for the credit's operations, balance sheet, and industry are neutral to favorable. Collateral, if appropriate, exceeds performance metrics;
2-Meets or Exceeds ExpectationsAcceptable asset quality, moderate excess liquidity, modest leverage capacity. A “2” rating could have some financial/non-financial weaknesses which are offset by strengths; however, the credit demonstrates an ample current cash flow from operations. The trends and outlook for the credit's operations, balance sheet, and industry are generally positive or neutral. Collateral performance, if appropriate, meets or exceeds substantially all performance metrics included in original or current underwriting / business plan;
3-SatisfactoryAcceptable asset quality, somewhat strained liquidity, minimal leverage capacity. A “3” rating is at times characterized by acceptable cash flows from operations. The trends and conditions of the credit's operations and balance sheet are neutral. Collateral performance, if appropriate, meets or is on track to meet underwriting; business plan can reasonably be achieved;
4-Underperformance — The debt investment possesses credit deficiencies or potential weaknesses which deserve management’s close and continued attention. The portfolio company’s operations and/or balance sheet have demonstrated an adverse trend or deterioration which, while serious, has not reached the point where the liquidation of debt is jeopardized. These weaknesses are generally considered correctable by the borrower in the

normal course of business but may weaken the asset or inadequately protect the Company’s credit position if not checked or corrected. Collateral performance, if appropriate, falls short of original underwriting, material differences exist from business plan, or both; technical milestones have been missed; defaults may exist, or may soon occur absent material improvement; and

5-Default/Possibility of Loss — The debt investment is protected inadequately by the current enterprise value or paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral, if any. The underlying company’s operations have well-defined weaknesses based upon objective evidence, such as recurring or significant decreases in revenues and cash flows. Major variance from business plan; loan covenants or technical milestones have been breached; timely exit from loan via sale or refinancing is questionable; risk of principal loss. Collateral performance, if appropriate, is significantly worse than underwriting.
The Company generally assigns a risk rating of “3” to all newly originated or acquired loans held-for-investment during a most recent quarter, except in the case of specific circumstances warranting an exception.
Leases
The Company has lease agreements with lease and non-lease components. The Company has elected to not separate non-lease components from lease components for all classes of underlying assets (primarily real estate assets) and will account for the combined components as rental and other property income. Non-lease components included in rental and other property income include certain tenant reimbursements for maintenance services (including common-area maintenance services or “CAM”), real estate taxes, insurance and utilities paid for by the lessor but consumed by the lessee. As a lessor, the Company has further determined that this policy will be effective only on a lease that has been classified as an operating lease and the revenue recognition pattern and timing is the same for both types of components. The Company is not a party to any material leases where it is the lessee.
Significant judgments and assumptions are inherent in not only determining if a contract contains a lease, but also the lease classification, terms, payments, and, if needed, discount rates. Judgments include the nature of any options, including if they will be exercised, evaluation of implicit discount rates and the assessment and consideration of “fixed” payments for straight-line rent revenue calculations.
The Company has an investment in a real estate property that is subject to a ground lease, for which a lease liability and right of use (“ROU”) asset of $2.3 million and $2.4 million was recorded as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. See Note 14 — Leases for a further discussion regarding this ground lease.
Lease costs represent the initial direct costs incurred in the origination, negotiation and processing of a lease agreement. Such costs include outside broker commissions and other independent third-party costs and are amortized over the life of the lease on a straight-line basis. Costs related to salaries and benefits, supervision, administration, unsuccessful origination efforts and other activities not directly related to completed lease agreements are expensed as incurred. Upon successful lease execution, leasing commissions are capitalized.
Development Activities
Project costs and expenses, including interest incurred, associated with the development, construction and lease-up of a real estate project are capitalized as construction in progress. During the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company capitalized $1.4$7.2 million and $4.5 million, respectively, of interest expenseexpenses associated with the development of condominiums acquired via foreclosure, which is included in condominium developments in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. There were no development projectsIncluded in the amounts capitalized during the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2020.2022 and 2021 was $711,000 and $1.8 million, respectively, of capitalized interest expense.
Revenue Recognition
Revenue from leasing activities
Rental and other property income is primarily derived from fixed contractual payments from operating leases, and therefore, is generally recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease, which typically begins the date the tenant takes control of the space. When the Company acquires a property, the terms of existing leases are considered to commence as of the acquisition date for the purpose of this calculation. Variable rental and other property income consists primarily of tenant reimbursements for recoverable real estate taxes and operating expenses which are included in rental and other property income in the period when such costs are incurred, with offsetting expenses in real estate taxes and property operating expenses,

respectively, within the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The Company defers the recognition of variable rental and other property income, such as percentage rents, until the specific target that triggers the contingent rental income is achieved.
The Company continually reviews whether collection of lease-related receivables, including any straight-line rent, and current and future operating expense reimbursements from tenants are probable. The determination of whether collectability is probable takes into consideration the tenant’s payment history, the financial condition of the tenant, business conditions in the industry in which the tenant operates and economic conditions in the area in which the property is located. Upon the

determination that the collectability of a receivable is not probable, the Company will record a reduction to rental and other property income for amounts previously recorded and a decrease in the outstanding receivable. Revenue from leases where collection is deemed to be not probable is recorded on a cash basis until collectability becomes probable. Management’s estimate of the collectability of lease-related receivables is based on the best information available at the time of estimate. The Company does not use a general reserve approach and lease-related receivables are adjusted and taken against rental and other property income only when collectability becomes not probable.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company identified certain tenants where collection was no longer probable. For these tenants, the Company made the determination to record revenue on a cash basis and wrote off a net total of outstanding receivables of $109,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. These write-offs reduced rental and other property income during the nine months ended September 30, 2021.
Revenue from lending activities
Interest income from the Company’s loans held-for-investment and real estate-related securities is comprised of interest earned on loans and the accretion and amortization of net loan origination fees and discounts. Interest income on loans is accrued as earned, with the accrual of interest suspended when the related loan becomes a nonaccrual loan. Interest income on the Company’s broadly syndicatedliquid senior loans is accrued as earned beginning on the settlement date.
Reportable Segments
During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company updated its reportableThe Company’s segment information to reflectreflects how the chief operating decision makers regularly review and manage the business and determined that itinformation for operational decision-making purposes. The Company has 2 reportable segments:
Credit — engages primarily in acquiring and originating loans, either directly or through co-investments in joint ventures, related to real estate assets. The Company may acquire first and second lien mortgage loans, mezzanine loans, bridge loans, wraparound mortgage loans, construction mortgage loans on real property and loans on leasehold interest mortgages. This segment also includes investments in CMBSreal estate-related securities, liquid senior loans and broadly syndicatedcorporate senior loans.
Real estate — engages primarily in acquiring and managing income-producing retail properties that are primarily single-tenant properties, or anchored shopping centers, which are leased to creditworthy tenants under long-term net leases. The commercial properties are geographically diversified throughout the United States and have similar economic characteristics.
See Note 1516 — Segment Reporting for a further discussion regarding these segments.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by various standard setting bodies that may have an impact on the Company’s accounting and reporting. Except as otherwise stated below, the Company is currently evaluating the effect that certain new accounting requirements may have on the Company’s accounting and related reporting and disclosures in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
In April 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued a question and answer document (the “Lease Modification Q&A”) focused on the application of lease accounting guidance to lease concessions provided as a result of the current novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) pandemic. Due to the business disruptions and challenges severely affecting the global economy caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, many lessors may be required to provide rent deferrals and other lease concessions to lessees. While the lease modification guidance in ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) (“ASC 842”) addresses routine changes to lease terms resulting from negotiations between the lessee and the lessor, this guidance did not contemplate concessions being so rapidly executed to address the sudden liquidity constraints of some lessees arising from COVID-19 related impacts. Under existing lease guidance, the Company would have to determine, on a lease by lease basis, if a lease concession was the result of a new arrangement reached with the tenant (treated within the lease modification accounting

framework) or if a lease concession was under the enforceable rights and obligations within the existing lease agreement (precluded from applying the lease modification accounting framework). The Lease Modification Q&A allows the Company, if certain criteria have been met, to bypass the lease by lease analysis, and instead elect to either apply the lease modification accounting framework or not, with such election applied consistently to leases with similar characteristics and similar circumstances. 
The Company has elected to apply this guidance to avoid performing a lease by lease analysis for the lease concessions that (1) were granted as relief due to COVID-19 related impacts and (2) result in the cash flows remaining substantially the same or less than the original contract and will account for these lease concessions as if no changes were made to the leases. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, the majority of the lease concessions provided by the Company were in the form of rental abatements, to certain tenants in response to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on those tenants.
As of November 8, 2021, the Company has collected approximately 99% of rental payments billed to tenants during the three months ended September 30, 2021. During the three months ended September 30, 2021, the Company granted an additional $104,000 in rent deferrals. As of November 8, 2021, the Company collected $6.4 million of deferred rent, representing approximately 97% of amounts due through September 30, 2021.
In January 2021, the FASB issued ASU No. 2021-01, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848) (“ASU 2021-01”). The amendments in ASU 2021-01 clarify that certain optional expedients and exceptions for contract modifications and hedge accounting apply to derivative instruments that use an interest rate for margining, discounting, or contract price alignment that is modified as a result of the discontinuation of the use of the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) as a benchmark interest rate due to reference rate reform. ASU 2021-01 is effective immediately for all entities with the option to apply retrospectively as of any date from the beginning of an interim period that includes or is subsequent to March 12, 2020, and can be applied prospectively to any new contract modifications made on or after January 7, 2021. The Company currently uses LIBOR as its benchmark interest rate for its derivative instruments, and has not entered into any new contracts on or after the effective date of ASU 2021-01. The Company has evaluated the impact of this ASU’s adoption, and does not believe this ASU will have a material impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements.
In June 2022, the FASB issued ASU No. 2022-03, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Fair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions. The amendments in this update clarify the guidance in Topic 820 when measuring the fair value of an equity security subject to contractual sale restrictions and introduce new disclosure requirements related to such equity securities. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance on its condensed consolidated financial statements.
NOTE 3 — FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
GAAP defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and requires disclosures about fair value measurements. GAAP emphasizes that fair value is intended to be a market-based measurement, as opposed to a transaction-specific measurement.

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date under current market conditions. Depending on the nature of the asset or liability, various techniques and assumptions can be used to estimate the fair value. Assets and liabilities are measured using inputs from three levels of the fair value hierarchy, as follows:
Level 1 — Inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date. An active market is defined as a market in which transactions for the assets or liabilities occur with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.
Level 2 — Inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active (markets with few transactions), inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (i.e., interest rates, yield curves, etc.), and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data correlation or other means (market corroborated inputs).
Level 3 — Unobservable inputs, which are only used to the extent that observable inputs are not available, reflect the Company’s assumptions about the pricing of an asset or liability.
The following describes the methods the Company uses to estimate the fair value of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities:
Real estate-related securities — The Company generally determines the fair value of its real estate-related securities by utilizing broker-dealer quotations, reported trades or valuation estimates from pricing models to determine the reported price. Pricing models for real estate-related securities are generally discounted cash flow models that usually consider the attributes applicable to a particular class of security (e.g., credit rating, seniority), current market data, and estimated cash flows for each class and incorporate deal collateral performance such as prepayment speeds and default rates, as available. Depending upon the
20

September 30, 2021 (Unaudited) – (Continued)

significance of the fair value inputs used in determining these fair values, these securities are valued using Level 1, Level 2 or Level 3 inputs. As of June 30, 2022, the Company concluded that $193.1 million of its CMBS fell under Level 2 and $34.4 million of its CMBS fell under Level 3.
The Company’s equity security investment is valued using Level 1 inputs. The estimated fair value of the Company’s equity security is based on quoted market prices that are readily and regularly available in an active market.
Credit facilities and notes payable — The fair value is estimated by discounting the expected cash flows based on estimated borrowing rates available to the Company as of the measurement date. Current and prior period liabilities’ carrying and fair values exclude net deferred financing costs. These financial instruments are valued using Level 2 inputs. As of SeptemberJune 30, 2021,2022, the estimated fair value of the Company’s debt was $2.74$4.11 billion, compared to a carrying value of $2.81$4.25 billion. The estimated fair value of the Company’s debt as of December 31, 20202021 was $2.14$4.11 billion, compared to a carrying value of $2.15$4.17 billion.
Derivative instruments — The Company’s derivative instruments are comprised of interest rate swaps and interest rate caps. All derivative instruments are carried at fair value and are valued using Level 2 inputs. The fair value of these instruments is determined using interest rate market pricing models. In addition, credit valuation adjustments are incorporated into the fair values to account for the Company’s potential nonperformance risk and the performance risk of the respective counterparties.
Although the Company has determined that the majority of the inputs used to value its derivatives fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the credit valuation adjustments associated with those derivatives utilize Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads, to evaluate the likelihood of default by the Company and its counterparties. However, as of SeptemberJune 30, 20212022 and December 31, 2020,2021, the Company assessed the significance of the impact of the credit valuation adjustments on the overall valuation of its derivative positions and determined that the credit valuation adjustments are not significant to the overall valuation of the Company’s derivatives. As a result, the Company has determined that its derivative valuations in their entirety are classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
Loans held-for-investment — The Company’s loans held-for-investment are recorded at cost upon origination and adjusted by net loan origination fees and discounts. The Company estimates the fair value of its loans held-for-investment by performing a present value analysis for the anticipated future cash flows using an appropriate market discount rate taking into consideration the credit risk. The Company has determined that its CREcommercial real estate (“CRE”) loans held-for-investment and corporate senior loans are classified in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. The Company’s broadly syndicatedliquid senior loans are classified as Level 2 or Level 3 depending on the number of market quotations or indicative prices from pricing services that are available, and whether the depth of the market is sufficient to transact at those prices in amounts approximating the Company’s investment position at

As of SeptemberJune 30, 2021, $474.92022, $491.3 million and $96.8$149.2 million of the Company’s broadly syndicatedliquid senior loans were classified in Level 2 and Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy, respectively.

As of December 31, 2020,2021, the estimated fair value of the Company’s loans held-for-investment was $907.8 million,$2.63 billion, compared to itstheir carrying value of $892.3 million.$2.61 billion.
Other financial instruments  The Company considers the carrying values of its cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, tenant receivables, accounts payable and accrued expenses, other liabilities, due to affiliates and distributions payable to approximate their fair values because of the short period of time between their origination and their expected realization as well as their highly-liquid nature. Due to the short-term maturities of these instruments, Level 1 inputs are utilized to estimate the fair value of these financial instruments.
Considerable judgment is necessary to develop estimated fair values of financial assets and liabilities. Accordingly, the estimates presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts the Company could realize, or be liable for, upon disposition of the financial assets and liabilities. As of September 30, 2021The Company evaluates its hierarchy disclosures each quarter and December 31, 2020, there have been no transfers of financial assetsdepending on various factors, it is possible that an asset or liabilitiesliability may be classified differently from quarter to quarter. The Company does not expect that changes in classifications between fair value hierarchy levels.

Items Measured at Fair Value on a Non-Recurring Basis (Including Impairment Charges)
Certain financial and nonfinancial assets and liabilities are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis and are subject to fair value adjustments in certain circumstances, such as when there is evidence of impairment. The Company’s process for identifying and recording impairment related to real estate assets and intangible assets is discussed in Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.

As discussed in Note 4 — Real Estate Assets, during the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2021,2022, real estate assets related to 1118 properties were deemed to be impaired and their carrying values were reduced to an estimated fair value of $43.1$110.5 million, resulting in impairment charges of $5.3$11.3 million. Additionally, during the six months ended June 30, 2022, certain condominium units were deemed to be impaired and their carrying values were reduced to their estimated fair value, resulting in impairment charges of $7.9 million. During the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2020,2021, real estate assets related to 115 properties were deemed to be impaired and their carrying values were reduced to an estimated fair value of $71.5$31.2 million, resulting in impairment charges of $16.0$4.4 million. The Company estimates fair values using Level 3 inputs and a combined income and market approach, specifically using discounted cash flow analysis and recent comparable sales transactions. The evaluation of real estate assets for potential impairment requires the Company’s management to exercise significant judgment and to make certain key assumptions, including, but not limited to, the following: (1) terminal capitalization rates; (2) discount rates; (3) the number of years the property will be held; (4) property operating expenses; and (5) re-leasing assumptions, including the number of months to re-lease, market rental income and required tenant improvements. There are inherent uncertainties in making these estimates such as market conditions and the future performance and sustainability of the Company’s tenants. The Company determined that the selling prices used to determine the fair values were Level 2 inputs.

Actual maturities of real estate-related securities can differ from contractual maturities because borrowers on certain corporate credit securities may have the right to prepay their respective debt obligations at any time. In addition, factors such as prepayments and interest rates may affect the yields on such securities.
In estimating credit losses related to real estate-related securities, management considers a variety of factors, including (1) whether the Company has the intent to sell the impaired security before the recovery of its amortized cost basis, (2) whether the Company expects to hold the investment for a period of time sufficient to allow for anticipated recovery in fair value, and (3) whether the Company expects to recover the entire amortized cost basis of the security. As of SeptemberJune 30, 2021,2022, the Company had no credit losses related to real estate-related securities.

Troubled Debt Restructuring
An individual financial instrument is classified as a troubled debt restructuring when there is a reasonable expectation that the financial instrument’s contractual terms will be modified in a manner that grants concessions to the borrower who is experiencing financial difficulties. Concessions could include term extensions, payment deferrals, interest rate reductions,

principal forgiveness, forbearance, or other actions designed to maximize the Company’s collection on the financial instrument. The allowance forCurrent expected credit losses for financial instruments that are troubletroubled debt restructurings are determined individually.
The Company also classifies a financial instrument as a troubled debt restructuring when receivables from third parties, real estate, or other assets are transferred from the debtor to the creditor in order to fully or partially satisfy a debt, such as in the event of a foreclosure or repossession. During the year ended December 31, 2019, the borrower on the Company’s 8 mezzanine loans became delinquent on certain required reserve payments. Throughout 2020, the borrower remained delinquent on the required reserve payments and became delinquent on principal and interest. As a result, the Company classified the loans as a troubled debt restructuring and commenced foreclosure proceedings during the year ended December 31, 2020. Upon completing foreclosure in January 2021, the Company took control of the assets which previously secured the loans, including 75 condominium units and 21 rental units across 4 buildings. As a result of the foreclosure, the Company recorded a $58.0 million decrease to its provision for credit losses related to its mezzanine loans during the three months ended March 31, 2021. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company recorded a $1.1 million net decrease to the provision for credit losses related to its senior loans and broadly syndicated loans to reflect the estimated fair value of such loans, bringing the total allowance for credit losses to $11.2 million as of September 30, 2021. The Company recorded a decrease in the provision for credit losses related to its senior loans and broadly syndicated loans during the three months ended September 30, 2021 due to the ongoing market recovery from COVID-19 and the resulting improvement in the performance of the collateral assets underlying the portfolio.
Risk Ratings
As further described in Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, the Company evaluates its loans held-for-investment portfolio on a quarterly basis. Each quarter, the Company assesses the risk factors of each loan, and assigns a risk rating based on several factors. Factors considered in the assessment include, but are not limited to, loan and credit structure, current LTV ratio, debt yield, collateral performance, and the quality and condition of the sponsor, borrower, and guarantor(s). Loans are rated “1” (less risk) through “5” (greater risk), which ratings are defined in Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.

(1)The interest rate consists of the underlying index swapped or capped to a fixed rate as of SeptemberJune 30, 2021.
(2)As of December 31, 2020, the Company had 5 interest rate swap agreements designated as hedging instruments in a liability position with an aggregate outstanding notional amount of $1.1 billion and an aggregate fair value balance of $12.3 million included in deferred rental income and other liabilities in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.2022.
Additional disclosures related to the fair value of the Company’s derivative instruments are included in Note 3 — Fair Value Measurements. The notional amount under the derivative instruments is an indication of the extent of the Company’s involvement in each instrument, but does not represent exposure to credit, interest rate or market risks.
Accounting for changes in the fair value of a derivative instrument depends on the intended use and designation of the derivative instrument. The Company hadhas interest rate caps that are used to manage exposure to interest rate movements, but do not meet the requirements to be designated as hedging instruments. The change in fair value of the derivative instruments that are not designated as hedges is recorded directly to earnings in interest expense and other, net on the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations. During the three and ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2021,2022, the Company had interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges in order to hedge the variability of the anticipated cash flows on its variable rate debt. The change in fair value of the derivative instruments designated as hedges is recorded in other comprehensive (loss) income, with a portion of the amount subsequently reclassified to interest expense as interest payments are made on the Company’s variable rate debt. For the three and six months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2021,2022, the amount of gainloss reclassified from other comprehensive (loss) income as a decreasean increase to interest expense was $170,000.$69,000 and $62,000, respectively. For the ninethree and six months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2021, the amount of loss reclassified from other comprehensive (loss) income as an increase to interest expense was $3.0 million. For the three$71,000 and nine months ended September 30, 2020, the amount of losses reclassified from other comprehensive (loss) income as an increase to interest expense was $4.0 million and $8.3$3.2 million, respectively. The total unrealized lossgain on interest rate swaps was $174,000 and $3.2of $2.5 million as of SeptemberJune 30, 20212022, and the total unrealized gain on interest rate swaps of $152,000 as of December 31, 2020,2021, respectively, which areis included in accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income in the accompanying condensed consolidated statementstatements of stockholders’ equity. During the next 12 months, the Company estimates that $203,000 will be reclassified from other comprehensive (loss) income as an increase to interest expense. The Company includes cash flows from interest rate swap agreements in net cash flows provided by operating activities on its condensed consolidated statements of cash flows, as the Company’s accounting policy is to present cash flows from hedging instruments in the same category in its condensed consolidated statements of cash flows as the category for cash flows from the hedged items.
The Company has agreements with each of its derivative counterparties that contain provisions whereby if the Company defaults on certain of its unsecured indebtedness, the Company could also be declared in default on its derivative obligations, resulting in an acceleration of payment. If the Company had breached any of these provisions, it could have been required to

In addition, the Company is exposed to credit risk in the event of non-performance by its derivative counterparties. The Company believes it mitigates its credit risk by entering into agreements with creditworthy counterparties. The Company records credit risk valuation adjustments on its interest rate capsderivative instruments based on the credit quality of the Company and the respective counterparty. There were no termination events or events of default related to the interest rate capsderivative instruments as of SeptemberJune 30, 2021.2022.

Certain risks may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from those expressed or implied by the following discussion. For a complete discussion of such risk factors, see Item 1A — Risk Factors of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.2021. Capitalized terms used herein, but not otherwise defined, shall have the meaning ascribed to those terms in “Part I — Financial Information” of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements contained therein, and the terms “we,” “us,” “our” and the “Company” refer to CIM Real Estate Finance Trust, Inc.
Forward-Looking Statements
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes “forward-looking statements” (within the meaning of the federal securities laws, Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) that reflect our expectations and projections about our future results, performance, prospects and opportunities. We have attempted to identify these forward-looking statements by the use of words such as “may,” “will,” “seek,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “targets,” “intends,” “should,” “estimates,” “could,” “continue,” “assume,” “projects,” “plans” or similar expressions. These forward-looking statements are based on information currently available to us and are subject to a number of known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. These factors include, among other things, those discussed below. In addition, these risks and uncertainties include those associated with (i) the scope, severity and duration of the current pandemic of COVID-19 and actions taken to contain the pandemic or mitigate its impact, (ii) the potential adverse effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on the financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and performance of the Company and its tenants, the real estate market and the global economy and financial markets, among others, and (iii) general economic, market and other conditions. We intend for all such forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act, as applicable by law. We do not undertake to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of changes in underlying assumptions or new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required to satisfy our obligations under federal securities law. The forward-looking statements should be read in light of the risk factors identified in Item 1A — Risk Factors of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.2021.
The following are some, but not all, of the assumptions, risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those presented in our forward-looking statements:
We may be unable to renew leases, lease vacant space or re-lease space as leases expire on favorable terms or at all.
We are subject to risks associated with tenant, geographic and industry concentrations with respect to our investments and properties.
Our properties, intangible assets and other assets, as well as the property securing our loans or other investments, may be subject to impairment charges.
We could be subject to unexpected costs or unexpected liabilities that may arise from dispositions.
We are subject to competition in the acquisition and disposition of properties and in the leasing of our properties and we may suffer delays or be unable to acquire, dispose of, or lease properties on advantageous terms.
We are subject to risks associated with bankruptcies or insolvencies of our borrowers and tenants and from borrower or from tenant defaults generally.
Our credit and real estate investments subject us to the political, economic, capital markets and other conditions in the United States, including with respect to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic and other events that impact the United States.
We are subject to fluctuations in interest rates which could reduce our ability to generate income on our credit investments.
We are subject to an increase in inflation that could increase our credit and real estate portfolio related costs at a higher rate than our rental income and other revenue and adversely impact demand for rental space and future extensions of our tenants’ leases.
We are subject to competition from entities engaged in lending which may impact the availability of origination and acquisition opportunities acceptable to us.

We may fail to remain qualified as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

We may be unable to achieve the cost synergies anticipated to result from the CCIT III and CCPT V Mergers and the CIM Income NAV Merger.
Definitions
We use certain defined terms throughout this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that have the following meanings:
The phrase “annualized rental income” refers to the straight-line rental revenue under our leases on operating properties owned as of the respective reporting date, which includes the effect of rent escalations and any tenant concessions, such as free rent, and excludes any contingent rent, such as percentage rent. Management uses annualized rental income as a basis for tenant, industry and geographic concentrations and other metrics within the portfolio. Annualized rental income is not indicative of future performance.
Under a “net lease,” the tenant occupying the leased property (usually as a single tenant) does so in much the same manner as if the tenant were the owner of the property. The tenant generally agrees that it will either have no ability or only limited ability to terminate the lease or abate rent prior to the expiration of the term of the lease as a result of real estate driven events such as casualty, condemnation or failure by the landlord to fulfill its obligations under the lease. There are various forms of net leases, most typically classified as either triple-net or double-net. Triple-net leases typically require the tenant to pay all expenses associated with the property (e.g., real estate taxes, insurance, maintenance and repairs, including roof, structure and parking lot). Double-net leases typically hold the landlord responsible for the capital expenditures for the roof and structure, while the tenant is responsible for all lease payments and remaining operating expenses associated with the property (e.g., real estate taxes, insurance and maintenance).
Overview
We were formedare primarily focused on July 27, 2010,originating, acquiring, financing and we elected to be taxed,managing shorter duration senior secured loans, other related credit investments and currently qualify, as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes commencing with our taxable year ended December 31, 2012. We commenced our principal operations on April 13, 2012, when we satisfied the conditions of our escrow agreement regarding the minimum offering and issued approximately 308,000 shares of our common stock. We have no paid employees and are externally managed by CMFT Management and, with respect to investments in securities, our Investment Advisor. CIM indirectly owns and/or controls CMFT Management; our dealer manager, CCO Capital; our property manager, CREI Advisors; and CCO Group.
We ceased issuing shares in our Offering on April 4, 2014 and in the Initial DRIP Offering effective as of June 30, 2016, but will continue to issue shares of common stock under the Secondary DRIP Offering until certain liquidity events occur, such as the listing of our shares on a national securities exchange or the sale of our company, or the Secondary DRIP Offering is otherwise terminated by our Board. We suspended issuing shares of common stock under our Secondary DRIP Offering on August 30, 2020 in connection with our entry into the merger agreements with CCIT III and CCPT V. On March 25, 2021, the Board approved reinstating the DRIP effective April 1, 2021.
We intend to continue to pursue a diversified investment strategy across the capital structure by balancing our existing portfolio of core commercial real estate assets with investments in commercial mortgage loans and other real estate-related credit investments in which our sponsor and its affiliates have expertise. We expectestate. Our investment strategy allows us to adapt our investment strategy over time in order to respond to evolving market conditions and to capitalize on investment opportunities that may arise at different points in the economic and real estate investment cycle. We are continuing our strategy as a credit focused REIT, balancing our existing core of necessity commercial real estate assets leased to creditworthy tenants under long-term net leases with a portfolio of commercial mortgage loans and other credit investments. Assuming the successful repositioning of our portfolio and subject to market conditions, we then expect to pursue a listing of our common stock on a national securities exchange, in 2022, though we can provide no assurances that a listing will happen on that timeframe or at all.
We were formed on July 27, 2010, and we elected to be taxed, and conduct our operations to qualify, as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes. We have no paid employees and are externally managed by CMFT Management and, with respect to investments in securities and certain other of our investments, our Investment Advisor, each of which is an affiliate of CIM, a community-focused real estate and infrastructure owner, operator, lender and developer.
As of June 30, 2022, we owned 402 properties, which consisted of 378 retail properties, 13 industrial properties, 10 office properties, and one anchored shopping center, representing 33 industry sectors and comprising 12.1 million rentable square feet of commercial space located in 45 states. As of June 30, 2022, we owned condominium developments with a net book value of $152.5 million.
As of June 30, 2022, our loan portfolio consisted of 341 loans with a net book value of $3.9 billion, and investments in real estate-related securities of $274.4 million.

entered into the Purchase and Sale Agreement to sell 79 shopping centers and two single-tenant properties, for which we were to receive, in the aggregate, approximately $1.32 billion in total consideration at closing. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the sale of 80 properties closed under the Purchase and Sale Agreement for total consideration of $1.3 billion, as further discussed in Note 4 — Real Estate Assets to the condensed consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The remaining property is classified as held for sale in the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2022 with a carrying value of $66.2 million. The sale of the final property closed for total consideration of $68.3 million subsequent to June 30, 2022, as further discussed in Note 17 — Subsequent Events to the condensed consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Our operating results and cash flows are primarily influenced by rental and other property income from our commercial properties, interest income from our credit investments, interest expense on our indebtedness and investment and operating expenses. As 94.2%99.2% of our rentable square feet was under lease, including any month-to-month agreements, as of SeptemberJune 30, 2021,2022, with a weighted average remaining lease term of 8.310.6 years, we believe our exposure to changes in commercial rental rates on our portfolio is substantially mitigated, except for vacancies caused by tenant bankruptcies or other factors.factors, including due to circumstances related to COVID-19. Our manager regularly monitors the creditworthiness of our tenants by reviewing each tenant’s financial results, any available credit rating agency reports on the tenant or guarantor, the operating history of the property with such tenant, the tenant’s market share and track record within its industry segment, the general health and outlook of the tenant’s industry segment and other information for changes and possible trends. If CMFT Management identifies significant changes or trends that may adversely affect the creditworthiness of a tenant, it will gather a more in-depth knowledge of the tenant’s financial condition and, if necessary, attempt to mitigate the tenant credit risk by evaluating the possible sale of the property or identifying a possible replacement tenant should the current tenant fail to perform on the lease. In addition, our manager reviews our investment portfolios and in certain instances is in regular contact with our borrowers, monitoring performance of the collateral and enforcing our rights as necessary.

COVID-19
We are closely monitoring the negative impacts that the COVID-19 pandemic and the efforts to mitigate its spread are having on the economy, our tenants and our business. The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic continues to impact our operations and those of our tenants will depend on future developments, including, among other factors, the duration, spread and resurgences of the virus, including certain variants thereof, along with related travel advisories and restrictions, the recovery time of the disrupted supply chains and industries, the impact of labor market interruptions, the impact of government interventions, the pace, scope and efficacy of vaccination programs, and general uncertainty as to the impact of COVID-19, including related variants, on the global economy.
DuringMacroeconomic Environment
The U.S. Federal Reserve’s recent actions to increase interest rates in order to control inflation have created further uncertainty for the threeeconomy and nine months ended September 30, 2021,for our borrowers and tenants. Although the majority of lease concessions provided wereour business model is such that rising interest rates will, all else being equal, correlate to increases in our net income, increases in interest rates may adversely affect our existing borrowers, tenants and owned property values. It is difficult to predict the form of rent abatements to certain tenants in response to thefull impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on those tenants.
As of November 8, 2021, we have collected approximately 99.3% of rental payments billed to tenants during the three months ended September 30, 2021,recent changes and as of November 8, 2021, we collected $6.4 million of deferred rent, representing approximately 97% of amounts due through September 30, 2021.

Results of Operations
Overview
We are not aware of any material trends or uncertainties, other than those listed in the risk factors set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 20202021 and this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, and national economic conditions affecting real estate in general that may reasonably be expected to have a material impact on our results from the acquisition, management and operation of properties. Currently, we are unable to predict the impact that the COVID-19 pandemic will have on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows in future periods due to numerous uncertainties.
Same Store Analysis
Our results of operations are influenced by the timing of acquisitions and the operating performance of our real estate assets. We review our stabilized operating results, measured by net operating income, from properties that we owned for the entirety of both the current and prior year reporting periods, referred to as “same store” properties, and we believe that the presentation of operating results for same store properties provides useful information to stockholders. Net operating income is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure of a real estate company’s operating performance. Net operating income is considered by management to be a helpful supplemental performance measure, as it enables management to evaluate the impact of occupancy, rents, leasing activity and other controllable property operating results at our real estate properties, and it provides a consistent method for the comparison of our properties. We define net operating income as operating revenues less operating expenses, which exclude (i) depreciation and amortization, (ii) interest expense and other non-property related revenue and expense items such as (a) general and administrative expenses, (b) expense reimbursements to related parties, (c) management fees, (d) transaction-related expenses, (e) real estate impairment, (f) increase in provision for credit losses, (g) gain on disposition of real estate and condominium developments, net, (h) merger-related expenses, net and (i) interest income.

net operating income may not be comparable to that of other REITs and should not be considered to be more relevant or accurate in evaluating our operating performance than the current GAAP methodology used in calculating net income (loss).income. In determining the same store property pool, we include all properties that were owned for the entirety of both the current and prior reporting periods, except for properties during the current or prior year that were under development or redevelopment.

No such write-offs occurred during the same period in 2021.
Management Fees
We pay CMFT Management a management fee pursuant to the Management Agreement, payable quarterly in arrears, equal to the greater of (a) $250,000 per annum ($62,500 per quarter) and (b) 1.50% per annum (0.375% per quarter) of the Company’s Equity (as defined in the Management Agreement). Furthermore, as discussed in Note 1112 — Related-Party Transactions and Arrangements to our condensed consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, pursuant to the Investment Advisory and Management Agreement, for management of investments in the Managed Assets (as defined in the Investment Advisory and Management Agreement), CMFT Securities pays the Investment Advisor the Investment Advisory Fee, payable quarterly in arrears, equal to 1.50% per annum (0.375% per quarter) of CMFT Securities’ Equity (as defined in the Investment Advisory and Management Agreement). Because the Managed Assets are excluded from the calculation of management fees payable by the Company to CMFT Management pursuant to the Management Agreement, the total management and advisory fees payable by the Company to its external advisors are not increased as a result of the Investment Advisory and Management Agreement. In addition, pursuant to the Sub-Advisory Agreement, in connection with providing investment management services with respect to the corporate credit-related securities held by CMFT Securities, on a quarterly basis, the Investment Advisor designates 50% of the sum of the Investment Advisory Fee payable to the Investment Advisor as sub-advisory fees.
The increase in management fees of $1.6 million during the three months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2021,2022, as compared to the same period in 2020,2021, was primarily due to increased equity from the issuance of common stock in connection with the CCIT III and CCPT V MergersCIM Income NAV Merger that closed in December 2020.2021.

This decrease was partially offset by increased expenses related to the CCIT III and CCPT V Mergers completed in December 2020 and the foreclosure completed in January 2021 to take control of the assets which previously secured the Company’s mezzanine loans, as discussed in Note 7 — Loans Held-For-Investment to our condensed consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

(Decrease ) Increase in Provision for Credit Losses
The decrease in provision for credit losses of $9.1 million during the three months ended September 30, 2021, as compared to the same period in 2020, was primarily due to the Company’s foreclosure of the assets which previously secured the Company’s mezzanine loans. During the three months ended September 30, 2020, the borrower on the Company’s eight mezzanine loans remained delinquent on the required reserve payments and became delinquent on principal and interest, resulting in the Company recording $3.6 million in credit losses related to the mezzanine loans. Upon completing foreclosure in January 2021, the Company took control of the assets which previously secured the loans, and as such, a provision for credit losses related to the mezzanine loans was not recorded for the three months ended September 30, 2021. During the three months ended September 30, 2021, a decrease in the provision for credit losses was recorded related to its senior loans and broadly syndicated loans due to the ongoing market recovery from COVID-19.
Interest Income

(4)In accordance with GAAP, certain real estate acquisition-related fees and expenses, such as expenses and fees incurred in connection with property acquisitions accounted for as business combinations, are expensed, and therefore reduce net cash flows from operating activities. Therefore, for consistency, proceeds from the issuance of common stock used as a source of distributions for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 include the amount by which real estate acquisition-related fees and expenses have reduced net cash flows from operating activities in those prior periods.was $292.2 million.
Share Redemptions
Our amended and restated share redemption program (the “Amended Share Redemption Program”) permits our stockholders to sell their shares of common stock back to us, subject to certain conditions and limitations. FundingWe will limit the number of shares redeemed pursuant to our share redemption program as follows: (1) we will not redeem in excess of 5% of the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the trailing 12 months prior to the end of the fiscal quarter for which the redemptions are being paid; and (2) funding for the redemption of shares will be limited, among other things, to the cumulative net proceeds we receive from the sale of shares under the Secondaryour DRIP, Offering, net of shares redeemed to date. In addition,an effort to accommodate redemption requests throughout the calendar year, we will generally limit quarterly redemptions to approximately 1.25% of the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the trailing 12-month period ending on the last day of the fiscal quarter for which the redemptions are being paid, and to the net proceeds we receive from the sale of shares in the respective quarter under the Secondary DRIP Offering. Any of the foregoing limits might prevent us from accommodating all redemption requests made in any fiscal quarter or in any 12-month period. We will determine whether we have sufficient funds and/or shares available as soon as practicable after the end of each fiscal quarter, but in any event prior to the applicable payment date. If we cannot purchase all shares presented for redemption in any fiscal quarter, based upon insufficient cash available from DRIP and/or the limit on the number of shares we may redeem during any quarter or year, we will give priority to the redemption of deceased stockholders’ shares. While deceased stockholders’ shares will be included in

calculating the maximum number of shares that may be redeemed in any annual or quarterly period, they will not be subject to the annual or quarterly percentage caps; therefore, if the volume of requests to redeem deceased stockholders’ shares in a particular quarter were large enough to cause the annual or quarterly percentage caps to be exceeded, even if no other redemption requests were processed, the redemptions of deceased stockholders’ shares would be completed in full, assuming sufficient proceeds from the sale of shares under our DRIP, net of shares redeemed to date, were available. If sufficient proceeds from the sale of shares under our DRIP, net of shares redeemed to date, were not available to pay all such redemptions in full, the requests to redeem deceased stockholders’ shares would be honored on a pro rata basis. We next will give priority to requests for full redemption of accounts with a balance of 250 shares or less at the time we receive the request, in order to reduce the expense of maintaining small accounts. Thereafter, we will honor the remaining redemption requests on a pro rata basis. Following such quarterly redemption period, if a stockholder would like to resubmit the unsatisfied portion of the prior request for redemption, such stockholder must submit a new request for redemption of such shares prior to the last day of the new quarter. Unfulfilled requests for redemption will not be carried over automatically to subsequent redemption periods. In addition, our management reserves the right, in its sole discretion at any time, and from time to time, to reject any request for redemption for any reason. Our Board may choose to amend the terms of, suspend or terminate our Amended Share Redemption Programshare redemption program at any time in its sole discretion if it believes that such action is in the best interest of us and our stockholders. Any material modifications or suspension of the Amended Share Redemption Programshare redemption program will be disclosed to our stockholders as promptly as practicable in our reports filed with the SEC and via our website. In connection with the CCIT III and CCPT V Mergers, our Board suspended our Amended Share Redemption Program on August 30, 2020, and therefore, no shares were redeemed from our stockholders after that date until March 25, 2021, when our Board reinstated the Amended Share Redemption Program, effective April 1, 2021. During the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2021,2022, we received valid redemption requests under our share redemption program totaling approximately 61.849.6 million shares, of which we redeemed approximately 1.71.4 million shares as of SeptemberJune 30, 20212022 for $12.0$10.0 million at(at an average redemption price of $7.20 per share,share) and approximately 1.3 million shares subsequent to SeptemberJune 30, 20212022 for $9.4 million (at a redemption price of $7.20 per share). The remaining redemption requests relating to approximately 58.846.9 million shares went unfulfilled. A valid redemption request is one that complies with the applicable requirements and guidelines of ourthe share redemption program then in effect. The share redemptions were funded with proceeds from the Secondary DRIP Offering and available borrowings.

Sources of credit investments.Liquidity
During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, and with the proceeds from the Mortgage Loan and the saleOur primary sources of the Class A Notes, the Company paid down the $1.11 billion outstanding balance under the Credit Facilities and terminated the Credit Facilities. As of September 30, 2021, we hadliquidity include cash and cash equivalents of $289.8 million, which included $87.4 million of unsettled broadly syndicated loan purchases.
As of September 30, 2021, the Credit and Security Agreement provided for borrowings in an aggregate principal amount up to $500.0 million under the Credit Securities Revolver, which may be increased from time to time pursuant to the Credit and Security Agreement. Borrowings under the Credit and Security Agreement are secured by substantially all of the assets held by CMFT Corporate Credit Securities, LLC, which shall primarily consist of broadly-syndicated senior secured loans subject to certain eligibility criteria under the Credit and Security Agreement. As of September 30, 2021, the amounts borrowed and outstanding under the Credit Securities Revolver totaled $406.5 million. Subsequent to September 30, 2021, the Company amended the Credit and Security Agreement by increasing available borrowings under our debt facilities, which are set forth in the following table:

As of September 30, 2021, we believe that we were in compliance with the financial covenants of the Mortgage Loan, the Class A Notes, and the Repurchase Agreements, as well as the financial covenants under our various fixed and variable rate debt agreements, as further discussed in Note 9 — Notes Payable, Repurchase Facilities and Credit Facilities to our condensed consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Short-term Liquidity and Capital Resources
On a short-term basis, ourOur principal demands for funds will be for the acquisition of real estate-related securities, real estate and real estate-related assets and the payment of tenant improvements, acquisition-related fees and expenses, operating expenses, distributions, redemptions and interest and principal on current and any future debt financings, including principal repayments of $98.5$504.2 million within the next 12 months.months, $228.3 million of which was paid down subsequent to June 30, 2022, as further discussed in Note 17 — Subsequent Events to our condensed consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Subsequent to June 30, 2022, we entered into a new credit agreement with JPMorgan Chase which provides for borrowings of $300.0 million, the proceeds of which were used to pay down the $212.5 million outstanding balance under the CIM Income NAV Credit Facility. We also exercised the Deutsche Bank Repurchase Facility’s first extension option which was set to mature on October 8, 2022, extending the date of maturity to October 8, 2023.
WeGenerally, we expect to meet our short-term liquidity requirements through cash proceeds from real estate asset dispositions, net cash provided by operations and proceeds from the Secondary DRIP Offering, as well as secured or unsecured borrowings from banks and other lenders to finance our future acquisitions and loan originations. We expect that substantially all net cash flows from operations will be used to pay distributions to our stockholders after certain capital expenditures, including tenant improvements and leasing commissions, are paid; however, we have used, and may continue to use, other sources to fund distributions, as necessary, including borrowings on our unencumbered assets. To the extent that cash flows from operations are lower, distributions paid to our stockholders may be lower. Operating cash flows are expected to increase as we complete future acquisitions. We expect that substantially all net cash flows from the Secondary DRIP Offering or debt financings will be used to fund acquisitions, loan originations, certain capital expenditures, repayments of outstanding debt or distributions and redemptions to our stockholders. We believe that the resources stated above will be sufficient to satisfy our operating requirements for the foreseeable future, and we do not anticipate a need to raise funds from sources other than those described above within the next 12 months. Management intends to use the proceeds from the disposition of properties to, among other things, acquire additional high-quality net-lease properties and credit investments in furtherance of our investment objectives and for other general corporate purposes.
Long-term Liquidity and Capital Resources
On a long-term basis, our principal demands for funds will be for the acquisition of real estate-related securities, real estate and real estate-related credit investments and the payment of tenant improvements, acquisition-related expenses, operating expenses, distributions and redemptions to stockholders and interest and principal on any current and future indebtedness. Generally, we expect to meet our long-term liquidity requirements through proceeds from cash flows from operations, proceeds from secured or unsecured borrowings from banks and other lenders, and proceeds raised pursuant to the Secondary DRIP Offering.
We expect that substantially all net cash flows from operations will be used to pay distributions to our stockholders after certain capital expenditures, including tenant improvements and leasing commissions, are paid; however, we have used, and may continue to use, other sources to fund distributions, as necessary, including borrowings on our unencumbered assets.

We expect to incur additional borrowings in the future to acquire additional properties and credit investments. There is no limitation on the amount we may borrow against any single improved property. As of SeptemberJune 30, 2021,2022, our ratio of debt to total gross assets net of gross intangible lease liabilities was 55.0%60.8% and our ratio of debt to the fair market value of our gross assets net of gross intangible lease liabilities was 57.1%60.5%. Fair market value of our first mortgage loans is based on the estimated market value as of June 30, 2022. Fair market value of the remaining credit investments is based on the market value as of June 30, 2022. Fair market value of our real estate assets is based on the estimated market value as of September 30, 2020March 31, 2021 that werewas used to determine our estimated per share NAV, and for those assets acquired from JulyApril 1, 20202021 through SeptemberJune 30, 20212022 is based on the purchase price.
Our management reviews net debt as part of its management of our overall liquidity, financial flexibility, capital structure and leverage, and we therefore believe that the presentation of net debt provides useful information to stockholders. Net debt is a non-GAAP measure used to show our outstanding principal debt balance, excluding certain GAAP adjustments, such as premiums or discounts, financing and issuance costs, and related accumulated amortization, less all cash and cash equivalents. As of September 30, 2021, our net debt leverage ratio, which is the ratio of net debt to total gross real estate and related assets net of gross intangible lease liabilities, was 49.3%.

Cash Flow Analysis
Operating Activities. Net cash provided by operating activities increaseddecreased by $25.8$4.1 million for the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2021,2022, as compared to the same period in 2020.2021. The increasedecrease was primarily due to the acquisitiondisposition of 146182 properties in connection with the CCIT III and CCPT V Mergers that closed in December 2020 along with increases in credit investments driving higher interest income, partiallysubsequent to June 30, 2021, offset by the dispositionacquisition of 124115 properties and one outparcel of land subsequent to September 30, 2020.through the CIM Income NAV Merger. See “— Results of Operations” for a more complete discussion of the factors impacting our operating performance.
Investing Activities. Net cash used in investing activities decreased $141.6increased $14.0 million for the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2021,2022, as compared to the same period in 2020.2021. The change was primarily due to a decrease in the net investment in broadly syndicated loans of $237.4 million, and an increase in proceeds from disposition of real estate assets of $265.0 million. The change was partially offset by an increase in the net investment in loans held-for-investment of $287.6$676.6 million and an increase in the net investment of real estate-related securities of $67.6$257.0 million, partially offset by an increase in proceeds from disposition of real estate assets of $900.8 million.
Financing Activities. Net cash provided by financing activities increased $323.1$62.6 million for the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2021,2022, as compared to the same period in 2020.2021. The change was primarily due to an increase in net proceeds on the credit facilities, notes payable and repurchase facilities of $346.2 million as a result of entering into and upsizing the Repurchase Facilities, the Mortgage Loan and the Class A Notes, coupled with a decrease in redemptions of common stock of $35.7 million as a result of the Board’s suspension of the Amended Share Redemption Program from August 30, 2020 through March 31, 2021. The change was offset by increased deferred financing costs paid as a result of entering into new debt agreements as described above.

Election as a REIT
We elected to be taxed, and currentlyoperate our business to qualify, as a REIT for federal income tax purposes commencing with our taxable year ended December 31, 2012. To maintain our qualification as a REIT, we must continue to meet certain requirements relating to our organization, sources of income, nature of assets, distributions of income to our stockholders and recordkeeping. As a REIT, we generally are not subject to federal income tax on taxable income that we distribute to our stockholders so long as we distribute at least 90% of our annual taxable income (computed without regard to the dividends paid deduction and excluding net capital gains).
If we fail to maintain our qualification as a REIT for any reason in a taxable year and applicable relief provisions do not apply, we will be subject to tax on our taxable income at regular corporate rates. We will not be able to deduct distributions paid to our stockholders in any year in which we fail to maintain our qualification as a REIT. We also will be disqualified for the four taxable years following the year during which qualification was lost, unless we are entitled to relief under specific statutory provisions. Such an event could materially adversely affect our net income and net cash available for distribution to stockholders. However, we believe that we are organized and operate in such a manner as to maintain our qualification as a REIT for federal income tax purposes. No provision for federal income taxes has been made in our accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. We are subject to certain state and local taxes related to the operations of properties in certain locations, which have been provided for in our accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.
Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Accounting Estimates
Our accounting policies have been established to conform with GAAP. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to use judgment in the application of accounting policies, including making estimates and assumptions. These judgments affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Management believes that we have made these estimates and assumptions in an appropriate manner and in a way that accurately reflects our financial condition. We continually test and evaluate these estimates and assumptions using our historical knowledge of the business, as well as other factors, to ensure that they are reasonable for reporting purposes. However, actual results may differ from these estimates and assumptions. If our judgment or interpretation of the facts and circumstances relating to various transactions had been different, it is possible that different accounting policies would have been applied, thus resulting in a different presentation of the financial statements. Additionally, other companies may utilize different estimates that may impact comparability of our results of operations to those of companies in similar businesses. We believe the following critical accounting policies govern the significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our financial statements, which should be read in conjunction with the more complete discussion of our accounting policies and procedures included in Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies to our audited consolidated financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.2021. We consider our critical accounting policies to be the following:
Recoverability of Real Estate Assets;
Allocation of Purchase Price of Real Estate Assets; and
Allowance forCurrent Expected Credit Losses.
A complete description of such policies and our considerations is contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.2021. The information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 20202021 and related notes thereto.
We continually monitor events and changes in circumstances that could indicate that the carrying amounts of our real estate assets may not be recoverable. Impairment indicators that we consider include, but are not limited to: bankruptcy or other credit concerns of a property’s major tenant, such as a history of late payments, lease concessions and other factors; a significant decrease in a property’s revenues due to lease terminations; vacancies; co-tenancy clauses; reduced lease rates; or changes in anticipated holding periods. We continue to evaluate our portfolio to determine if anticipated holding periods for certain properties may materially differ from the initial intended holding periods for such properties, which could result in an impairment charge in the future.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, we had no material off-balance sheet arrangements that had or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, results of operations, liquidity or capital resources.
Item 3.Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Market Risk
The market risk associated with financial instruments and derivative financial instruments is the risk of loss from adverse changes in market prices or interest rates. Our market risk arises primarily from interest rate risk relating to variable-rate borrowings. To meet our short and long-term liquidity requirements, we borrow funds at a combination of fixed and variable rates. Our interest rate risk management objectives are to limit the impact of interest rate changes on earnings and cash flows and to manage our overall borrowing costs. To achieve these objectives, from time to time, we may enter into interest rate hedge contracts such as swaps, collars and treasury lock agreements in order to mitigate our interest rate risk with respect to various debt instruments. We do not intend to hold or issue these derivative contracts for trading or speculative purposes. We do not have any foreign operations and thus we are not exposed to foreign currency fluctuations.
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 investments and the related financing obligations. In general, we seek to match the interest rate characteristics of our investments with the interest rate characteristics of any related financing obligations such as repurchase agreements, bank credit facilities, term loans, revolving facilities and securitizations.
As of SeptemberJune 30, 2021,2022, we had an aggregate of $1.6$3.2 billion of variable rate debt, excluding any debt subject to interest rate swap agreements and interest rate cap agreements, and therefore, we are exposed to interest rate changes in LIBOR.LIBOR and SOFR. As of SeptemberJune 30, 2021,2022, an increase or decrease of 50 basis points in interest rates would result in an increase or decrease in interest expense of $8.2$16.2 million per year.
As of SeptemberJune 30, 2021,2022, we had fivethree interest rate swap agreements and one interest rate cap agreementsagreement outstanding, which mature on varioushad maturity dates ranging from MayJuly 2022 through July 2023, with an aggregate notional amount of $752.6$805.8 million and an aggregate fair value of the net derivative asset of $51,000.$1.9 million. The fair value of these interest rate swap agreements and interest rate cap agreements is dependent upon existing market interest rates.rates and spreads. As of SeptemberJune 30, 2021,2022, an increase of 50 basis points in interest rates would result in a change of $166,000 to the fair value of the
62

Table of Contents

net derivative asset, resulting in a net derivative asset of $217,000. A decrease of 50 basis points in interest rates would result in a $45,000 change$1.6 million to the fair value of the net derivative asset, resulting in a net derivative asset of $6,000.$3.5 million. A decrease of 50 basis points in interest rates would result in a $1.1 million change to the fair value of the net derivative asset, resulting in a net derivative liability of $758,000. Subsequent to June 30, 2022, one of our interest rate swap agreements matured, as further discussed in Note 17 — Subsequent Events to our condensed consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
As the information presented above includes only those exposures that existed as of SeptemberJune 30, 2021,2022, it does not consider exposures or positions arising after that date. The information presented herein has limited predictive value. Future actual realized gains or losses with respect to interest rate fluctuations will depend on cumulative exposures, hedging strategies employed and the magnitude of the fluctuations.
These amounts were determined by considering the impact of hypothetical interest rate changes on our borrowing costs and assume no other changes in our capital structure.
In July 2017, the Financial Conduct Authority (“FCA”) that regulates LIBOR announced it intendsits intent to stop compelling banks to submit rates for the calculation of LIBOR after 2021. As a result, the Federal Reserve Board and the Federal Reserve
60

Table of Contents

Bank of New York organized the Alternative Reference Rates Committee which identified the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”)SOFR as its preferred alternative to U.S. dollar LIBOR in derivatives and other financial contracts. In MarchOn December 31, 2021, the FCA confirmed its intention to ceaseceased publishing one week and two-month LIBOR, after December 31, 2021 and the FCA intends to cease publishing all remaining LIBOR after June 30, 2023. This announcement has several implications, including setting the spread that may be used to automatically convert contracts from LIBOR to SOFR. Additionally, banking regulators are encouraging banks to discontinue new LIBOR debt issuances by December 31, 2021. The Company anticipates that LIBOR will continue to be available at least until June 30, 2023. Any changes adopted by FCA or other governing bodies in the method used for determining LIBOR may result in a sudden or prolonged increase or decrease in reported LIBOR. If that were to occur, our interest payments could change. In addition, uncertainty about the extent and manner of future changes may result in interest rates and/or payments that are higher or lower than if LIBOR were to remain available in its current form.
WeAs of June 30, 2022, we have interest rate swap agreements and interest rate cap agreements maturing on various dates from MayJuly 2022 through July 2023, as further discussed above, that are indexed to LIBOR. As such, we are monitoring and evaluating the related risks, which include interest on loans or amounts received and paid on derivative instruments. These risks arise in connection with transitioning contracts to a new alternative rate, including any resulting value transfer that may occur. The value of loans or derivative instruments tied to LIBOR could also be impacted if LIBOR is limited or discontinued. For some instruments, the method of transitioning to an alternative reference rate may be challenging, especially if we cannot agree with the respective counterparty about how to make the transition.
If a contract is not transitioned to an alternative rate and LIBOR is discontinued, the impact on our contracts is likely to vary by contract. If LIBOR is discontinued or if the methods of calculating LIBOR change from their current form, interest rates on our current or future indebtedness may be adversely affected.
While we expect LIBOR to be available in substantially its current form until at least the end of June 30, 2023, it is possible that LIBOR will become unavailable prior to that point. This could result, for example, if sufficient banks decline to make submissions to the LIBOR administrator. In that case, the risks associated with the transition to an alternative reference rate will be accelerated and magnified.
Alternative rates and other market changes related to the replacement of LIBOR, including the introduction of financial products and changes in market practices, may lead to risk modeling and valuation challenges, such as adjusting interest rate accrual calculations and building a term structure for an alternative rate.
The introduction of an alternative rate also may create additional basis risk and increased volatility as alternative rates are phased in and utilized in parallel with LIBOR.
Adjustments to systems and mathematical models to properly process and account for alternative rates will be required, which may strain the model risk management and information technology functions and result in substantial incremental costs for the Company.
Credit Risk
Concentrations of credit risk arise when a number of tenants are engaged in similar business activities, or activities in the same geographic region, or have similar economic features that would cause their ability to meet contractual obligations, including those to us, to be similarly affected by changes in economic conditions. We are subject to tenant, geographic and industry concentrations. Any downturn of the economic conditions in one or more of these tenants, states or industries could result in a material reduction of our cash flows or material losses to us.
The factors considered in determining the credit risk of our tenants include, but are not limited to: payment history; credit status and change in status, including the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic (credit ratings for public companies are used as a
63

Table of Contents

primary metric); change in tenant space needs (i.e., expansion/downsize); tenant financial performance; economic conditions in a specific geographic region; and industry specific credit considerations. We believe that the credit risk of our portfolio is reduced by the high quality of our existing tenant base, reviews of prospective tenants’ risk profiles prior to lease execution and consistent monitoring of our portfolio to identify potential problem tenants and mitigation options.
Our loans and investments are also subject to credit risk. The performance and value of our loans and investments depend upon the owners’ ability to operate the properties that serve as our collateral so that they produce cash flows adequate to pay interest and principal due to us. To monitor this risk, our manager reviews our investment portfolios and in certain instances is in regular contact with our borrowers, monitoring performance of the collateral and enforcing our rights as necessary.
Item 4.Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to us, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In

designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, we recognize that no controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide absolute assurance of achieving the desired control objectives.
As required by Rules 13a-15(b) and 15d-15(b) of the Exchange Act, an evaluation as of SeptemberJune 30, 20212022 was conducted under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Based on this evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures, as of SeptemberJune 30, 2021,2022, were effective at a reasonable assurance level.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
No change occurred in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during the three months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20212022 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1.Legal Proceedings
In the ordinary course of business, we may become subject to litigation or claims. We are not aware of any material pending legal proceedings, other than ordinary routine litigation incidental to our business, to which we or our subsidiaries are a party or to which our properties are the subject.
Item 1A.Risk Factors
Except as set forth below, thereThere have been no material changes from the risk factors set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.
Risks Related to Real Estate Assets
We have paid, and may continue to pay, some of our distributions from sources other than cash flows from operations, including borrowings and proceeds from asset sales, which may reduce the amount of capital we ultimately deploy in our real estate operations and may negatively impact the value of our common stock. Additionally, distributions at any point in time may not reflect the current performance of our properties or our current operating cash flows.
To the extent that cash flows from operations have been or are insufficient to fully cover our distributions to our stockholders, we have paid, and may continue to pay, some of our distributions from sources other than cash flows from operations. Such sources may include borrowings, proceeds from asset sales or the sale of our securities. We have no limits on the amounts we may use to pay distributions from sources other than cash flows from operations. The payment of distributions from sources other than cash provided by operating activities may reduce the amount of proceeds available for acquisitions and operations or cause us to incur additional interest expense as a result of borrowed funds, and may cause subsequent holders of our common stock to experience dilution. This may negatively impact the value of our common stock.
Because the amount we pay in distributions may exceed our earnings and our cash flows from operations, distributions may not reflect the current performance of our properties or our current operating cash flows. To the extent distributions exceed cash flows from operations, distributions may be treated as a return of our stockholders’ investment and could reduce their basis in our common stock. A reduction in a stockholder’s basis in our common stock could result in the stockholder recognizing more gain upon the disposition of his or her shares, which, in turn, could result in greater taxable income to such stockholder.
The following table presents distributions and the source of distributions for the periods indicated below (dollar amounts in thousands):

Risks Related to the CIM Income NAV Merger
Failure to complete the CIM Income NAV Merger could negatively impact our future business and financial results.
If the CIM Income NAV Merger is not completed, our ongoing business could be materially adversely affected and we will be subject to a variety of risks associated with the failure to complete the CIM Income NAV Merger, including the following:
CIM Income NAV may be unable to pay us the termination payment of either $6,720,000 or $14,780,000, depending upon the date of such termination and certain other factors, and may not be able to reimburse us for expenses incurred by us in connection with the CIM Income NAV Merger of up to $2,675,000;
We may have to bear certain costs incurred by us relating to the CIM Income NAV Merger, such as legal, accounting, financial advisor, filing, printing and mailing fees; and
the diversion of our management’s focus and resources from operational matters and other strategic opportunities while working to implement the CIM Income NAV Merger.
If the CIM Income NAV Merger is not completed, these risks could materially affect our business and financial results.
The pendency of the CIM Income NAV Merger, including as a result of the restrictions on the operation of our business and CIM Income NAV’s business during the period between signing the Merger Agreement and the completion of the CIM Income NAV Merger, as well as the suspension of CIM Income NAV’s public offering of securities, could adversely affect the business and operations of us, CIM Income NAV, or both.
In connection with the pending CIM Income NAV Merger, some business partners or vendors of each of us and CIM Income NAV may delay or defer decisions, which could negatively impact the revenues, earnings, cash flows and expenses of us and CIM Income NAV, regardless of whether the CIM Income NAV Merger is completed. In addition, due to operating covenants in the Merger Agreement, each of us and CIM Income NAV may be unable, during the pendency of the CIM Income NAV Merger, to pursue certain strategic transactions, undertake certain significant capital projects, undertake certain significant financing transactions and otherwise pursue other actions that are not in the ordinary course of business, even if such actions would prove beneficial. Furthermore, CIM Income NAV has suspended its public offering of securities in connection with the pending CIM Income NAV Merger, which may reduce the cash available to CIM Income NAV to fund its ongoing business and operations.
In certain circumstances, either we or CIM Income NAV may terminate the Merger Agreement.
Either we or CIM Income NAV may terminate the Merger Agreement if the CIM Income NAV Merger has not been consummated by the Outside Date. Also, the Merger Agreement may be terminated in certain circumstances if a final and non-appealable order is entered prohibiting the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, upon a material uncured breach by the other party that would cause the closing conditions not to be satisfied, or if CIM Income NAV stockholders fail to approve the CIM Income NAV Merger or the amendment to the CIM Income NAV charter that is required to consummate the CIM Income NAV Merger (the “Charter Amendment Proposal”). In addition, at any time prior to the time CIM Income NAV stockholders approve the CIM Income NAV Merger and the Charter Amendment Proposal, CIM Income NAV has the right to terminate the Merger Agreement in order to enter into an Alternative Acquisition Agreement with respect to a Superior Proposal (as such terms are defined in the Merger Agreement). Finally, at any time prior to the time CIM Income NAV stockholders approve the Merger Proposal and the Charter Amendment Proposal, we have the right to terminate the Merger Agreement upon an Adverse Recommendation Change, upon the commencement of a tender offer or exchange offer for any shares of CIM Income NAV Common Stock that constitutes an Acquisition Proposal if the CIM Income NAV board of directors fails to recommend against acceptance of such tender offer or exchange offer or to publicly reaffirm the CIM Income NAV board of directors recommendation after being requested to do so by us or if CIM Income NAV breaches or fails to comply in any material respect with certain of its obligations regarding the solicitation of and response to Acquisition Proposals.
We and CIM Income NAV each expect to incur substantial expenses related to the CIM Income NAV Merger.
We and CIM Income NAV each expect to incur substantial expenses in connection with completing the CIM Income NAV Merger and integrating the properties and operations of CIM Income NAV with ours. While we and CIM Income NAV each has assumed that a certain level of transaction expenses would be incurred, there are a number of factors beyond the control of each company that could affect the total amount or the timing of such expenses. Many of the expenses that will be incurred, by their nature, are difficult to estimate accurately at the present time. As a result, the transaction expenses associated with the CIM Income NAV Merger could, particularly in the near term, exceed the savings that we expect to achieve from the elimination of
66

Table of Contents

duplicative expenses and the realization of economies of scale and cost savings following the completion of the CIM Income NAV Merger.
The CIM Income NAV Merger may be dilutive to estimated net income for our stockholders.
The CIM Income NAV Merger may be dilutive to estimated net income for our stockholders, which would potentially decrease the amount of funds available to distribute to our stockholders as stockholders of the combined company following the CIM Income NAV Merger (the “Combined Company”). For instance, on a pro forma basis, assuming the CIM Income NAV Merger had been consummated on January 1, 2020, the net income per share of the Combined Company for the year ended December 31, 2020 and the six months ended June 30, 2021 would have been less than the actual net income per share of our common stock during the same periods.
In approving and recommending the CIM Income NAV Merger, our Board considered, among other things, the most recent estimated per share NAV of our common stock and CIM Income NAV Common Stock as determined by our Board and the CIM Income NAV board of directors, respectively, with the assistance of their respective third-party valuation experts. The estimated per share NAV of CIM Income NAV Common Stock may not be immediately determined following the consummation of the CIM Income NAV Merger. In the event that the Combined Company completes a liquidity event after consummation of the CIM Income NAV Merger, such as a listing of its shares on a national securities exchange, a merger in which stockholders of the Combined Company receive securities that are listed on a national securities exchange, or a sale of the Combined Company for cash, the market value of the shares of the Combined Company upon consummation of such liquidity event may be significantly lower than the current estimated value considered by our Board and the estimated per share NAV that may be reflected on the account statements of stockholders of the Combined Company after consummation of the CIM Income NAV Merger.
If the CIM Income NAV Merger does not qualify as a tax-free reorganization, there may be adverse tax consequences.
The CIM Income NAV Merger is intended to qualify as a tax-free reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1896, as amended (the “Code”). The closing of the CIM Income NAV Merger is conditioned on the receipt by each of us and CIM Income NAV of an opinion of counsel to the effect that the CIM Income NAV Merger will qualify as a tax-free reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code. However, these legal opinions will not be binding on the Internal Revenue Service or on the courts. If, for any reason, the CIM Income NAV Merger were to fail to qualify as a tax-free reorganization, then each stockholder generally would recognize gain or loss, as applicable, equal to the difference between (1) the merger consideration (i.e. the fair market value of the shares of our common stock) received by such stockholder in the CIM Income NAV Merger; and (2) such stockholder’s adjusted tax basis in our common stock.

Item 2.Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
Our Amended Share Redemption Programshare redemption program permits our stockholders to sell their shares of common stock back to us, subject to significantcertain conditions and limitations. FundingWe will limit the number of shares redeemed pursuant to our share redemption program as follows: (1) we will not redeem in excess of 5% of the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the trailing 12 months prior to the end of the fiscal quarter for which the redemptions are being paid; and (2) funding for the redemption of shares will be limited, among other things, to the cumulative net proceeds we receive from the sale of shares under the Secondaryour DRIP, Offering, net of shares redeemed to date. In addition, generallyan effort to accommodate redemption requests throughout the calendar year, we will generally limit quarterly redemptions to approximately 1.25% of the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the trailing 12-month period ending on the last day of the fiscal quarter for which the redemptions are being paid, and to the net proceeds we receive from the sale of shares in the respective quarter under the Secondary DRIP Offering. Any of the foregoing limits might prevent us from accommodating all redemption requests made in any fiscal quarter or in any 12-month period. In connection with the CCIT III and CCPT V Mergers, our Board suspended our Amended Share Redemption Program on August 30, 2020, and therefore, no shares were redeemed from our stockholders until our Board reinstated the Amended Share Redemption Program effective April 1, 2021. As of SeptemberJune 30, 2021,2022, the estimated per share NAV was $7.20, which was determined by the Board on May 25, 2021 using a valuation date of March 31, 2021. This estimated per share NAV serves as the most recent estimated value for purposes of the Amended Share Redemption Program, effective May 26, 2021, until such time as the Board determines a new estimated per share NAV.
In general, we redeem shares on a quarterly basis. Shares are redeemed with a trade date no later than the end of the month following the end of each fiscal quarter. Any redemption capacity that is not used as a result of the withdrawal or rejection of redemption requests may be used to satisfy the redemption requests of other stockholders received for that fiscal quarter, and such redemption payments may be made at a later time than when that quarter’s redemption payments are made. During the three months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2021,2022, we redeemed shares, including those redeemable due to death, as follows:
