(2) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The interim consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). The interim consolidated financial statements include the Company’s accounts, a consolidated variable interest entityentities for which the Company wasis the primary beneficiary, through August 23, 2017, and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (see Note 5 for details).subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. The Company believes it has made all necessary adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring items, so that the consolidated financial statements are presented fairly and that estimates made in preparing the consolidated financial statements are reasonable and prudent. The operating results presented for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any other interim period or for the entire year. These interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 24, 2021.

Risks and Uncertainties

The coronavirus pandemic (“COVID-19”) resulted in broad challenges globally, has contributed to significant volatility in financial markets and continues to adversely impact global commercial activity. The impact of the outbreak has evolved rapidly around the globe, with many countries taking drastic measures to limit the spread of the virus by instituting quarantines or lockdowns and imposing travel restrictions. Such actions have created significant disruptions to global supply chains, and adversely impacted several industries, including but not limited to, airlines, hospitality, retail and the broader real estate industry.

COVID-19 has had a continued and prolonged adverse impact on economic and market conditions and triggered a period of global economic slowdown which has and could continue to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results and financial condition. Many jurisdictions have re-opened with social distancing measures implemented to curtail the spread of COVID-19, and multiple vaccines have been approved for use in the United States. Although the Company has observed preliminary signs of economic recovery, the Company cannot predict the time required for a meaningful economic recovery to take place. Additional surges in new cases of COVID-19 and mutated strains of the virus have caused additional quarantines and lockdowns, which could delay any economic recovery. The nationwide vaccination program is ongoing and its effectiveness remains uncertain. These factors could further materially and adversely affect the Company’s results and financial condition.

The full impact of COVID-19 on the real estate industry, the credit markets and consequently on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations is uncertain and cannot be predicted currently since it depends on several factors beyond the control of the Company including, but not limited to (i) the uncertainty surrounding the severity and duration of the outbreak, including possible recurrences and differing economic and social impacts of the outbreak in various regions of the United States, (ii) the effectiveness of the United States public health response, (iii) the pandemic’s impact on the United States and global economies, (iv) the timing, scope and effectiveness of additional governmental responses to the pandemic, (v) the timing and speed of economic recovery, including the availability of a treatment and effectiveness of vaccines approved for COVID-19, (vi) changes in how certain


types of commercial property are used while maintaining social distancing and other techniques intended to control the impact of COVID-19, and (vii) the negative impact on the Company’s borrowers, real estate values and cost of capital.

Reclassifications

Certain amounts in the Company’s prior period consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the presentation of the Company’s current period consolidated financial statements. These reclassifications had no effect on the Company’s previously reported net income. Amounts related to Collateralized Loan Obligation Proceeds Held at Trustee were reclassified from Accounts Receivable from Servicer/Trustee balance in prior period balance sheet to conform to current period presentation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the interim consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires estimates of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the interim consolidated financial statements. Actual results could differ from management’s estimates, and such differences could be material. Significant estimates made in the interim consolidated financial statements include, but are not limited to: impairment;to, the adequacy of provisionsour allowance for loan losses;credit losses and the valuation inputs related thereto and the valuation of financial instruments. Actual amounts and values as of the balance sheet dates may be materially different than the amounts and values reported due to the inherent uncertainty in the estimation process and the limited availability of observable pricing inputs due to market dislocation resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. Also, future amounts and values could differ materially from those estimates due to changes in values and circumstances after the balance sheet date and the limited availability of observable prices.

Principles of Consolidation

Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 810—Consolidation (“ASC 810”) provides guidance on the identification of a VIE (a variable interest entity (“VIE”), for which control is achieved through means other than voting rights)rights, and the determination of which business enterprise, if any, should consolidate the VIE. An entity is considered a VIE if any of the following applies: (1) the equity investors (if any) lack one or more of the essential characteristics of a controlling financial interest; (2) the equity investment at risk is insufficient to finance that entity’s activities without additional subordinated financial support; or (3) the equity investors have voting rights that are not proportionate to their economic interests and the activities of the entity involve or are conducted on behalf of an investor with a disproportionately small voting interest. The Company consolidates VIEs in which itthe Company is considered to be the primary beneficiary. The primary beneficiary is defined as the entity having both of the following characteristics: (1) the power to direct the activities that, when taken together, most significantly impact the VIE’s performance; and (2) the obligation to absorb losses and right to receive the returns from the VIE that would be significant to the VIE. The Company determined that TRTX 2021-FL4, a collateralized loan obligation issued on March 31, 2021, is a VIE and is consolidated in accordance with GAAP. See Note 6 for details regarding issuance of TRTX 2021-FL4.

At each reporting date, the Company reconsiders its primary beneficiary conclusionconclusions for all its VIEs to determine if its obligation to absorb losses of, or its rights to receive benefits from, the VIE could potentially be more than insignificant, and will consolidate or not consolidate accordingly.in accordance with GAAP. See Note 6 for details.


Revenue Recognition

Interest income on loans is accrued using the interest method based on the contractual terms of the loan, adjusted for expected or realized credit impairment,losses, if any. The objective of the interest method is to arrive at periodic interest income, including recognition of fees and costs, at a constant effective yield. Premiums, discounts, origination fees and exitorigination fees are amortized or accreted into interest income over the lives of the loans using the interest method, or on a straight linestraight-line basis when it approximates the interest method. Extension and modification fees are amortizedaccreted into income on a straight-line basis, when it approximates the interest method, over the related extension periodor modification period. Exit fees are accreted into interest income on a straight-line basis, when it approximates the interest method, over the lives of the loans to which they relate using a straight line basis, which approximates the interest method, when the extension feeunless they can be waived by the Company or a co-lender in connection with theira loan refinancing, or if timely collection of the loan.principal and interest is doubtful. Prepayment penalties from borrowers are recognized as interest income when received. Certain of the Company’s loan investments have in the past, and may in the future, provide for additional interest based on the borrower’s operating cash flow or appreciation of the underlying collateral. Such amounts are considered contingent interest and are reflected as interest income only upon certainty of collection.

The Certain of the Company’s loan investments have in the past, and may in the future, provide for the accrual of interest (in part, or in whole) instead of its current payment in cash, with the accrued interest (“PIK interest”) added to the unpaid principal balance of the loan. Such PIK interest is recognized currently as interest income unless the Company considers a loan to be non-performing and placesconcludes eventual collection is unlikely, in which case the PIK interest is written off.


All interest accrued but not received for loans placed on non-accrual status is subtracted from interest income at suchthe time as: (1) management determines the borrower is incapable of, or has ceased efforts toward, curing the cause of a default; (2) the loan becomes 90 days delinquent; or (3) the loan has a maturity default. Whileis placed on non-accrual status, basedstatus. Based on the Company’s judgment as to the collectability of principal, loans area loan on non-accrual status is either accounted for on a cash basis, where interest income is recognized only upon receipt of cash for principal and interest payments, or on a cost-recovery basis, where all cash receipts reduce athe loan’s carrying value, and interest income is only recorded when such carrying value has been fully recovered.

Loans Held for Investment

Loans that the Company has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future, or until maturity or payoff,repayment, are reported at their outstanding principal balances net of anycumulative charge-offs, interest applied to principal (for loans accounted for using the cost recovery method), unamortized premiums, discounts, loan origination fees and an allowance for loan losses.costs. Loan origination fees and direct loan origination costs are deferred and recognized in interest income over the estimated life of the loans using the interest method, or on a straight linestraight-line basis when it approximates the interest method, adjusted for actual prepayments. Accrued but not yet collected interest is separately reported as accrued interest and fees receivable on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.

When loans are designated as held for investment, the Company’s intent is to hold the loans for the foreseeable future or until maturity or repayment. If subsequent changes in real estate or capital markets occur, the Company may change its intent or its assessment of its ability to hold these loans. Once a determination has been made to sell such loans, they are immediately transferred to loans held for sale and carried at the lower of cost or fair value in accordance with GAAP.

Non-Accrual Loans

Loans are placed on non-accrual status when the full and timely collection of principal and interest is doubtful, generally when: management determines that the borrower is incapable of, or has ceased efforts toward, curing the cause of a default; the loan becomes 90 days or more past due for principal and interest; or the loan experiences a maturity default. The Company considers an account past due when an obligor fails to pay substantially all (defined as 90%) of the scheduled contractual payments by the due date. In each case, the period of delinquency is based on the number of days payments are contractually past due. A loan may be returned to accrual status if all delinquent principal and interest payments are brought current, and collectability of the remaining principal and interest payments in accordance with the loan agreement is reasonably assured. Loans that in the judgment of the Company’s external manager, TPG RE Finance Trust Management, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the “Manager”), are adequately secured and in the process of collection are maintained on accrual status, even if they are 90 days or more past due.

Troubled Debt Restructurings

A loan is accounted for and reported as a troubled debt restructuring (“TDR”) when, for economic or legal reasons, the Company grants a concession to a borrower experiencing financial difficulty that the Company would not otherwise consider. The Company does not consider a restructuring that includes an insignificant delay in payment as a concession. A delay may be considered insignificant if the payments subject to the delay are insignificant relative to the unpaid principal balance of the loan or collateral value, and the contractual amount due, or the delay in timing of the restructured payment period, is insignificant relative to the frequency of payments, the debt’s original contractual maturity or original expected duration.

TDRs that are performing and on accrual status as of the date of the modification remain on accrual status. TDRs that are non-performing as of the date of modification usually remain on non-accrual status until the prospect of future payments in accordance with the modified loan agreement is reasonably assured, which is generally demonstrated when the borrower maintains compliance with the restructured terms for a predetermined period. TDRs with temporary below-market concessions remain designated as a TDR regardless of the accrual or performance status until the loan is paid off. However, if the TDR loan has been modified in a subsequent restructure with market terms and the borrower is not currently experiencing financial difficulty, then the loan may be de-designated as a TDR.

Credit Losses

Allowance for Credit Losses for Loans Held for Investment

On January 1, 2020, the Company adopted Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses, and subsequent amendments, which replaced the incurred loss methodology with an expected loss model known as the Current Expected Credit Loss ("CECL") model. The initial CECL reserve recorded on January 1, 2020 is reflected as a direct charge to retained earnings on the Company’s consolidated statements of changes in equity. Subsequent changes to the CECL reserve are recognized through net income on the Company’s consolidated statements of income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss). The


allowance for credit losses measured under the CECL accounting framework represents an estimate of current expected losses for the Company’s existing portfolio of loans held for investment, and is presented as a valuation reserve on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Expected credit losses inherent in non-cancelable unfunded loan commitments are accounted for as separate liabilities included in accrued expenses and other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. The allowance for credit losses for loans held for investment, as reported in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets, is adjusted by a credit loss benefit (expense), which is reported in earnings in the consolidated statements of income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss) and reduced by the charge-off of loan amounts, net of recoveries and additions related to purchased credit-deteriorated (“PCD”) assets, if relevant. The allowance for credit losses includes a modeled component and an individually-assessed component. The Company has elected to not measure an allowance for credit losses on accrued interest receivables related to all of its loans held for investment because it writes off uncollectable accrued interest receivable in a timely manner pursuant to its non-accrual policy, described above.

The Company evaluates each loan classified as a loan receivable held for investment for impairment on a quarterly basis. Impairment occurs when it is deemed probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan. If the loan is considered to be impaired, an allowance is recorded to reduce the carrying value of the loan to the present value of the expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s contractual effective rate, or the fair value of the collateral, less estimated costs to sell, if recovery of the Company’s investment is expected solely from the sale of the collateral. As part of the quarterly impairment review, we evaluate the risk of each loanconsiders key credit quality indicators in underwriting loans and assign a risk rating based on a variety of factors, grouped as follows to include (without limitation): (i) loan andestimating credit structure, including the as-is loan-to-value (“LTV”) and structural features; (ii) quality and stability of real estate value and operating cash flow, including debt yield, property type, dynamics of the geographic, property-type and local market, physical condition, stability of cash flow, leasing velocity and quality and diversity of tenancy; (iii) performance against underwritten business plan; and (iv) quality, experience and financial condition of sponsor, borrower and guarantor(s). Based on a 5-point scale, our loans are rated “1” through “5,” from least risk to greatest risk, respectively, which ratings are defined as follows:

1-

Outperform—Exceeds performance metrics (for example, technical milestones, occupancy, rents, net operating income) included in original or current credit underwriting and business plan;

2-

Meets or Exceeds Expectations—Collateral performance meets or exceeds substantially all performance metrics included in original or current underwriting / business plan;

3-

Satisfactory—Collateral performance meets or is on track to meet underwriting; business plan is met or can reasonably be achieved;

4-

Underperformance—Collateral performance falls short of original underwriting, and material differences exist from business plan; technical milestones have been missed; defaults may exist, or may soon occur absent material improvement; and

5-

Risk of Impairment/Default—Collateral performance is significantly worse than underwriting; major variance from business plan; loan covenants or technical milestones have been breached; timely exit from loan via sale or refinancing is questionable.

Since Inception, the Company has not recorded asset-specific loan loss reserves, nor has it recognized any impairments on its loan portfolio. Our determination of asset-specific loan loss reserves, should any such reserves be necessary, relies on material estimates regarding the fair value of any loan collateral. Such losses, could be caused by various factors, including but not limited to: the capitalization of borrowers and sponsors; the expertise of the borrowers and sponsors in a particular real estate sector and geographic market; collateral type; geographic region; use and occupancy of the property; property market value; loan-to-value (“LTV”) ratio; loan amount and lien position; debt service and coverage ratio; the Company’s risk rating for the same and similar loans; and prior experience with the borrower and sponsor. This information is used to unanticipated adverseassess the financial and operating capability, experience and profitability of the sponsor/borrower. Ultimate repayment of the Company’s loans is sensitive to interest rate changes, general economic conditions, liquidity, LTV ratio, existence of a liquid investment sales market for commercial properties, and availability of replacement short-term or long-term financing. The loans in the economy or events adversely affecting specific assets, borrowers, industriesCompany’s commercial mortgage loan portfolio are secured by collateral in which our borrowers operate or markets in which our borrowers or their properties are located. Significant judgment is required when evaluating loans for impairment.the following property types: office; multifamily; hotel; mixed-use; condominium; and retail.


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

Commercial Mortgage-Backed SecuritiesQuarterly, 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 LTV structural features; (ii) quality and stability of real estate value and operating cash flow, including debt yield, property type, dynamics of the geography, property type and local market, physical condition, stability of cash flow, leasing velocity and quality and diversity of tenancy; (iii) performance against underwritten business plan; and (iv) quality, experience and financial condition of sponsor, borrower and guarantor(s). Based on a 5-point scale, the Company’s loans are rated “1” through “5,” from least risk to greatest risk, respectively, which ratings are defined as follows:

1-

Outperform—Exceeds performance metrics (for example, technical milestones, occupancy, rents, net operating income) included in original or current credit underwriting and business plan;

2-

Meets or Exceeds Expectations—Collateral performance meets or exceeds substantially all performance metrics included in original or current underwriting / business plan;

3-

Satisfactory—Collateral performance meets or is on track to meet underwriting; business plan is met or can reasonably be achieved;

4-

Underperformance—Collateral performance 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—Collateral performance is significantly worse than underwriting; major variance from business plan; loan covenants or technical milestones have been breached; timely exit from loan via sale or refinancing is questionable; significant risk of principal loss.

The Company generally assigns a risk rating of “3” to all loan investments originated during the most recent quarter, except in the case of specific circumstances warranting an exception.


The Company’s CECL reserve reflects its estimation of the current and future economic conditions that impact the performance of the commercial real estate assets securing the Company’s loans. These estimations include unemployment rates, interest rates, price indices for commercial property, and other macroeconomic factors that may influence the likelihood and magnitude of potential credit losses for the Company’s loans during their anticipated term. The Company licenses certain macroeconomic financial forecasts to inform its view of the potential future impact that broader economic conditions may have on its loan portfolio’s performance. The forecasts are embedded in the licensed model that the Company uses to estimate its CECL reserve as discussed below. Selection of these economic forecasts requires significant judgment about future events that, while based on the information available to the Company as of the balance sheet date, are ultimately unknowable with certainty, and the actual economic conditions impacting the Company’s portfolio could vary significantly from the estimates the Company made for the periods presented.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the dislocation it has caused to the national economy, the commercial real estate markets, and the capital markets, the Company’s ability to estimate key inputs for estimating the allowance for credit losses has been materially and adversely impacted. Key inputs to the estimate include, but are not limited to, LTV, debt service coverage ratio, current and future operating cash flow and performance of collateral properties, the financial strength and liquidity of borrowers and sponsors, capitalization rates and discount rates used to value commercial real estate properties, and market liquidity based on market indices or observable transactions involving the sale or financing of commercial properties. Estimates made by management are necessarily subject to change due to the lack or sharply limited number of observable inputs and uncertainty regarding the duration of the COVID-19 pandemic and its aftereffects.

Credit Loss Measurement

The amount of allowance for credit losses is influenced by the size of the Company’s loan portfolio, loan asset quality, risk rating, delinquency status, historic loss experience and other conditions influencing loss expectations, such as reasonable and supportable forecasts of economic conditions. The Company employs two methods to estimate credit losses in its loan portfolio: a loss-given-default (“LGD”) model-based approach utilized for substantially all of its loans; and an individually-assessed approach for loans that the Company concludes are ill-suited for use in the model-based approach, or are individually-assessed based on accounting guidance contained in the CECL framework.

Once the expected credit loss amount is determined, an allowance for credit losses equal to the calculated expected credit loss is established. Consistent with ASC 326, a loan will be charged off through the allowance for credit losses when it is deemed non-recoverable upon a realization event. This is generally at the time the loan receivable is settled, transferred or exchanged, but non-recoverability may also be concluded by the Company if, in its determination, it is nearly certain that all amounts due will not be collected. This loss shall equal the difference between the cash received, or expected to be received, and the book value of the asset. Factors considered by management in determining if the expected credit loss is permanent or not recoverable include whether management judges the loan to be uncollectible; that is, repayment is deemed to be delayed beyond reasonable time frames, or the loss becomes evident due to the borrower’s lack of assets and liquidity, or the borrower’s sponsor is unwilling or unable to support the loan. This policy is reflective of the investor’s economics as it relates to the ultimate realization of the loan.

Allowance for Credit Losses for Loans Held for Investment – Model-Based Approach

The model-based approach to measure the allowance for credit losses relates to loans which are not individually-assessed.

The Company investslicenses from Trepp, LLC historical loss information, incorporating loan performance data for over 100,000 commercial real estate loans dating back to 1998, in CMBSan analytical model to compute statistical credit loss factors (i.e., probability-of-default and loss-given-default). These statistical credit loss factors are utilized together with individual loan information to estimate the allowance for credit losses. This methodology considers the unique characteristics of the Company’s commercial mortgage loan portfolio and individual assets within the portfolio by considering individual loan risk ratings, delinquency statuses and other credit trends and risk characteristics. Further, the Company incorporates its expectations about the impact of current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts on expected future credit losses in deriving its estimate. For the period beyond which the Company is able to make reasonable and supportable forecasts, the Company reverts to unadjusted historical loan loss information based on systematic methodology determined at the input level. Determining the appropriateness of the allowance is complex and requires judgment by management about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. In future periods, evaluations of the overall loan portfolio, in light of the factors and forecasts then prevailing, may result in significant changes in the allowance and credit loss expense.


Allowance for Credit Losses for Loans Held for Investment – Individually-Assessed Approach

In instances where the unique attributes of a loan investment render it ill-suited for the model-based approach because it no longer shares risk characteristics with other loans, or because the Company concludes repayment of the loan is entirely collateral-dependent, or when it is deemed probable that the Company will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan, the Company separately evaluates the amount of expected credit loss using other real estate valuation techniques, considering substantially the same credit factors as utilized in the model-dependent method. In these cases, expected credit loss is measured as the difference between the amortized cost basis of the loan and the fair value of the collateral, if repayment is expected solely from the collateral, as determined by management using valuation techniques, frequently discounted cash managementflow. The fair value of the collateral is adjusted for the estimated cost to sell if repayment or satisfaction of a loan is dependent on the sale (rather than the operation) of the collateral.

Unfunded Loan Commitments

The Company’s first mortgage loans often contain provisions for future funding conditioned upon the borrower’s execution of its business plan with respect to the underlying collateral property securing the loan. These deferred fundings are typically for base building work, tenant improvement costs and leasing commissions, and occasionally to fund forecasted operating deficits during lease-up, or for interest reserves. These deferred funding commitments may be for specific periods, often require satisfaction by the borrower of conditions precedent, and may contain termination clauses at the option of the borrower or, more rarely, at the Company’s option. The total amount of unfunded commitments does not necessarily represent actual amounts that may be funded in cash in the future, since commitments may expire without being drawn, may be cancelled if certain conditions are not satisfied by the borrower, or borrowers may elect not to borrow some or all of the unused commitment. The Company does not recognize these unfunded loan commitments in its consolidated financial statements.

The Company applies its expected credit loss estimates to all future funding commitments that cannot be contractually terminated at the Company’s option. The Company maintains a separate allowance for credit losses from unfunded loan commitments, which is included in accrued expenses and other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. The Company estimates the amount of expected losses by calculating a commitment usage factor over the contractual period for exposures that are not unconditionally cancellable by the Company and applies the loss factors used in the allowance for credit loss methodology described above to the results of the usage calculation to estimate the liability for credit losses related to unfunded commitments for each loan.

CRE Debt Securities

In the past, the Company acquired CRE debt securities for investment purposes. The Company designatesdesignated CRE debt securities as available-for-sale its CMBS investments(“AFS”) on the date of acquisition date. CRE debt securities that were classified as AFS were recorded at fair value through other comprehensive income or loss in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The Company recognized interest income on its CRE debt securities using the interest method, or on a straight-line basis when it approximated the effective interest method, with any premium or discount amortized or accreted into interest income based on the respective outstanding principal balance and corresponding contractual term of the investment. CMBS that areCRE debt security. Accrued but not classifiedyet collected interest was separately reported as held-to-maturity and which the Company does not hold for the purpose of selling in the near-term, but may dispose of prior to maturity, are also designated as available-for-sale and are carried at fair value. The Company’s recognition ofaccrued interest income from its CMBS, including its amortization of premium and discount, followsreceivable on the Company’s revenue recognition policy.consolidated balance sheets. The Company usesused a specific identification method when determining the cost of a CRE debt security sold and the amount of unrealized gain or loss reclassified out offrom accumulated other comprehensive income or loss into earnings. Unrealizedearnings on the trade date.

AFS debt securities in unrealized loss positions were evaluated for impairment related to credit losses on securities that,at least quarterly. For the purpose of identifying and measuring impairment, any applicable accrued interest was excluded from both the fair value and the amortized cost basis. The Company had elected to write off accrued interest by reversing interest income in the judgmentevent the accrued interest is deemed uncollectible, generally when the security became 90 days or more past due for principal and interest.

The Company first assessed whether it intended to sell the debt security or more likely than not was required to sell the debt security before recovery of management, are other than temporary areits amortized cost basis. If either criterion regarding intent or requirement to sell was met, the debt security’s amortized cost basis was written down to its fair value and the write down was charged against the allowance for credit losses, with any incremental impairment reported in earnings as a loss in the consolidated statements of income. Significant valuation inputs are Level IIincome (loss) and comprehensive income (loss).


Any AFS debt security in an unrealized loss position which the Company did not intend to sell or was not more likely than not required to sell before recovery of the amortized cost basis was assessed for expected credit losses. The performance indicators considered for CRE debt securities related to the underlying assets and included default rates, delinquency rates, percentage of nonperforming assets, debt-to-collateral ratios, third-party guarantees, current levels of subordination, vintage, geographic concentration, analyst reports and forecasts, credit ratings and other market data. In assessing whether a credit loss exists, the Company compared the present value of cash flows expected to be collected from the security with the amortized cost basis of the security. If the present value of cash flows expected to be collected was less than the amortized cost basis for the security, a credit loss existed and an allowance for credit losses was recorded, limited by the amount the fair value hierarchywas less than amortized cost basis.

Declines in fair value of AFS debt securities in an unrealized loss position that were not due to credit losses, such as described under “Fair Value Measurements”declines due to changes in market interest rates, were recorded through other comprehensive income. Any impairment that had not been recorded through an allowance for credit losses was recognized in other comprehensive income. Unrealized gains and losses on AFS debt securities presented in the consolidated statements of income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss) included the reversal of unrealized gains and losses at the time gains or losses were realized.

Real Estate Owned

Real estate acquired as a result of foreclosure or by deed-in-lieu of foreclosure is classified as real estate owned (REO) held for investment until the Company makes a determination to sell. The Company's cost basis in REO is equal to the estimated fair value of the collateral at the date of acquisition, less estimated costs to sell. The estimated fair value of the REO is determined using a discounted cash flow model using inputs that include the highest and best use for each asset, estimated future values based on extensive discussions with local brokers, investors and other market participants, the estimated holding period for the asset, and discount rates that reflect estimated investor return requirements for the risks associated with the expected use of each asset. If the fair value of the REO is lower than the carrying value of the loan, the difference, along with any previously recorded specific CECL reserve, is recorded as a realized loss in the consolidated statements of income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss). Thereafter, events or circumstances may occur that result in a material and sustained decrease in the cash flows generated from the assets, potentially leading to impairment. REO is not measured at fair value on an ongoing basis but subject to fair value adjustments only in certain circumstances, such as when there is evidence of impairment. Any impairment loss, revenue and expenses from operations of the properties and resulting gains or losses on sale are included within the consolidated statements of income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss) in Other Income, net.

Fair Value Measurements

The Company follows ASC 820-10, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820-10”), for its holdings of financial instruments. ASC 820-10 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with GAAP and expands disclosure of fair value measurements. ASC 820-10 determines fair value to be the price that would be received for a financial instrument in a current sale, which assumes an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The Company determines the estimated fair value of financial assets and liabilities using the three-tier fair value hierarchy established by GAAP, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. GAAP establishes market-based or observable inputs as the preferred source of values followed by valuation models using management assumptions in the absence of market inputs. The financial instruments recorded at fair value on a recurring basis in the Company’s consolidated financial statements are cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and available-for-sale CMBS investments. The three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value are as follows:

Level I—Valuations based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access.


Level II—Valuations based on quoted prices in markets that are not active or for which all significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly.

Level III—Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement.

For certain financial instruments, the various inputs that management uses to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, the determination of which category within the fair value hierarchy is appropriate for such financial instrument is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the financial instrument. The Company may use valuation techniques consistent with the market and income approaches to measure the fair value of its assets and liabilities. The market approach uses third-party valuations and information obtained from market transactions involving identical or similar assets or liabilities. The income approach uses projections of the future economic benefits of an instrument to determine its fair value, such as in the discounted cash flow methodology. The inputs or methodology used for valuing financial instruments are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in these financial instruments. Transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy are assumed to occur at the end of the reporting period.

Income Taxes

The Company qualifies and has elected to be taxed as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, commencing with its taxable year ended December 31, 2014. To the extent that it annually distributes at least 90% of its REIT taxable income to stockholders and complies with various other requirements as a REIT, the Company generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income taxes on its distributed REIT taxable income. If the Company fails to continue to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year and does not qualify for certain statutory relief provisions, the Company will be subject to U.S. federal and state income taxes at regular corporate rates (including any applicable alternative minimum tax) beginning with the year in which it fails to qualify and may be precluded from being able to elect to be treated as a REIT for the Company’s four subsequent taxable years. Even though the Company currently qualifies for taxation as a REIT, the Company may be subject to certain U.S. federal, state, local and foreign taxes on the Company’s income and property and to U.S. federal income and excise taxes on the Company’s undistributed REIT taxable income.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the periods in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the period in which the enactment date occurs. Under ASC Topic 740, Income Taxesvariable interest entities (“ASC 740”VIEs”), a valuation allowance is established when management believes it is more likely than not that a deferred tax asset will not of $3.5 billion and $2.9 billion, respectively. The Company’s consolidated Total Assets and Total Liabilities at December 31, 2020 include assets and liabilities of VIEs of $2.3 billion and $1.8 billion, respectively. These assets can be realized. The Company intendsused only to continue to operate in a manner consistent with, and to continue to meet the requirements to be treated as, a REIT for tax purposes and to distribute all of its taxable income. Accordingly, the Company does not expect to pay corporate level taxes.

Earnings per Common Share

The Company utilizes the two-class method when assessing participating securities to calculate earnings per common share. Basic and diluted earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income attributable to common stockholders (i.e., holders of common stock and Class A common stock), divided by the weighted-average number of common shares (both common stock and Class A common stock) outstanding during the period. The preferences, rights, voting powers, restrictions, limitations as to dividends and other distributions, qualifications and terms and conditions of redemptionsatisfy obligations of the Class A common stock are identical to the common stock, except (1) the Class A common stock is not a “margin security” as defined in Regulation UVIEs, and creditors of the Board of Governors of the U.S. Federal Reserve System (and rulingsVIEs have recourse only to these assets, and interpretations thereunder) and may not be listed on a national securities exchange or a national market system and (2) each share of Class A common stock is convertible at any time or from time to time, at the option of the holder, for one fully paid and non-assessable share of common stock. The Class A common stock votes together with the common stock as a single class. Shares of Class A common stock have been issued to, and are owned by, certain individuals or entities affiliated with the Company’s external manager, TPG RE Finance Trust, Management, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the “Manager”Inc.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

(1) Business and Organization

TPG RE Finance Trust, Inc. (together with its consolidated subsidiaries, “we,” “us,” “our” or the “Company”) is organized as a holding company and conducts its operations primarily through TPG RE Finance Trust Holdco, LLC (“Holdco”), a Delaware limited liability company that is wholly owned by the Company, and Holdco’s direct and indirect subsidiaries. The Company conducts its operations as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) for U.S. federal income tax purposes. The Company is generally not subject to U.S. federal income taxes on its REIT taxable income to the extent that it annually distributes all of its REIT taxable income to stockholders and maintain its qualification as a REIT. The Company also operates its business in a manner that permits it to maintain an exclusion from registration under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

The Company’s principal business activity is to directly originate and acquire a diversified portfolio of commercial real estate related assets, consisting primarily of first mortgage loans and senior participation interests in first mortgage loans secured by institutional-quality properties in primary and select secondary markets in the United States. The Company has in the past invested in commercial real estate debt securities (“CRE debt securities”), primarily investment-grade commercial mortgage-backed securities (“CMBS”) and commercial real estate collateralized loan obligation securities (“CRE CLOs”).

(2) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The interim consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). The interim consolidated financial statements include the Company’s accounts, consolidated variable interest entities for which the Company is the primary beneficiary, and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. The Company believes it has made all necessary adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring items, so that the consolidated financial statements are presented fairly and that estimates made in preparing the consolidated financial statements are reasonable and prudent. The operating results presented for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any other interim period or for the entire year. These interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 24, 2021.

Risks and Uncertainties

The coronavirus pandemic (“COVID-19”) resulted in broad challenges globally, has contributed to significant volatility in financial markets and continues to adversely impact global commercial activity. The impact of the outbreak has evolved rapidly around the globe, with many countries taking drastic measures to limit the spread of the virus by instituting quarantines or lockdowns and imposing travel restrictions. Such actions have created significant disruptions to global supply chains, and adversely impacted several industries, including but not limited to, airlines, hospitality, retail and the broader real estate industry.

COVID-19 has had a continued and prolonged adverse impact on economic and market conditions and triggered a period of global economic slowdown which has and could continue to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results and financial condition. Many jurisdictions have re-opened with social distancing measures implemented to curtail the spread of COVID-19, and multiple vaccines have been approved for use in the United States. Although the Company has observed preliminary signs of economic recovery, the Company cannot predict the time required for a meaningful economic recovery to take place. Additional surges in new cases of COVID-19 and mutated strains of the virus have caused additional quarantines and lockdowns, which could delay any economic recovery. The nationwide vaccination program is ongoing and its effectiveness remains uncertain. These factors could further materially and adversely affect the Company’s results and financial condition.

The full impact of COVID-19 on the real estate industry, the credit markets and consequently on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations is uncertain and cannot be predicted currently since it depends on several factors beyond the control of the Company including, but not limited to (i) the uncertainty surrounding the severity and duration of the outbreak, including possible recurrences and differing economic and social impacts of the outbreak in various regions of the United States, (ii) the effectiveness of the United States public health response, (iii) the pandemic’s impact on the United States and global economies, (iv) the timing, scope and effectiveness of additional governmental responses to the pandemic, (v) the timing and speed of economic recovery, including the availability of a treatment and effectiveness of vaccines approved for COVID-19, (vi) changes in how certain


types of commercial property are used while maintaining social distancing and other techniques intended to control the impact of COVID-19, and (vii) the negative impact on the Company’s borrowers, real estate values and cost of capital.

Reclassifications

Certain amounts in the Company’s prior period consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the presentation of the Company’s current period consolidated financial statements. These reclassifications had no effect on the Company’s previously reported net income. Amounts related to Collateralized Loan Obligation Proceeds Held at Trustee were reclassified from Accounts Receivable from Servicer/Trustee balance in prior period balance sheet to conform to current period presentation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the interim consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires estimates of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the interim consolidated financial statements. Actual results could differ from management’s estimates, and such differences could be material. Significant estimates made in the interim consolidated financial statements include, but are not limited to, the adequacy of our allowance for credit losses and the valuation inputs related thereto and the valuation of financial instruments. Actual amounts and values as of the balance sheet dates may be materially different than the amounts and values reported due to the inherent uncertainty in the estimation process and the limited availability of observable pricing inputs due to market dislocation resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. Also, future amounts and values could differ materially from those estimates due to changes in values and circumstances after the balance sheet date and the limited availability of observable prices.

Principles of Consolidation

Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 810—Consolidation (“ASC 810”) provides guidance on the identification of a variable interest entity (“VIE”), for which control is achieved through means other than voting rights, and the determination of which business enterprise, if any, should consolidate the VIE. An entity is considered a VIE if any of the following applies: (1) the equity investors (if any) lack one or more of the essential characteristics of a controlling financial interest; (2) the equity investment at risk is insufficient to finance that entity’s activities without additional subordinated financial support; or (3) the equity investors have voting rights that are not proportionate to their economic interests and the activities of the entity involve or are conducted on behalf of an investor with a disproportionately small voting interest. The Company consolidates VIEs in which the Company is considered to be the primary beneficiary. The primary beneficiary is defined as the entity having both of the following characteristics: (1) the power to direct the activities that, when taken together, most significantly impact the VIE’s performance; and (2) the obligation to absorb losses and right to receive the returns from the VIE that would be significant to the VIE. The Company determined that TRTX 2021-FL4, a collateralized loan obligation issued on March 31, 2021, is a VIE and is consolidated in accordance with GAAP. See Note 6 for details regarding issuance of TRTX 2021-FL4.

At each reporting date, the Company reconsiders its primary beneficiary conclusions for all its VIEs to determine if its obligation to absorb losses of, or its rights to receive benefits from, the VIE could potentially be more than insignificant, and will consolidate or not consolidate in accordance with GAAP. See Note 6 for details.

Revenue Recognition

Interest income on loans is accrued using the interest method based on the contractual terms of the loan, adjusted for expected or realized credit losses, if any. The objective of the interest method is to arrive at periodic interest income, including recognition of fees and costs, at a constant effective yield. Premiums, discounts, and origination fees are amortized or accreted into interest income over the lives of the loans using the interest method, or on a straight-line basis when it approximates the interest method. Extension and modification fees are accreted into income on a straight-line basis, when it approximates the interest method, over the related extension or modification period. Exit fees are accreted into interest income on a straight-line basis, when it approximates the interest method, over the lives of the loans to which they relate unless they can be waived by the Company or a co-lender in connection with a loan refinancing, or if timely collection of principal and interest is doubtful. Prepayment penalties from borrowers are recognized as interest income when received. Certain of the Company’s loan investments have in the past, and may in the future, provide for additional interest based on the borrower’s operating cash flow or appreciation of the underlying collateral. Such amounts are considered contingent interest and are reflected as interest income only upon certainty of collection. Certain of the Company’s loan investments have in the past, and may in the future, provide for the accrual of interest (in part, or in whole) instead of its current payment in cash, with the accrued interest (“PIK interest”) added to the unpaid principal balance of the loan. Such PIK interest is recognized currently as interest income unless the Company concludes eventual collection is unlikely, in which case the PIK interest is written off.


All interest accrued but not received for loans placed on non-accrual status is subtracted from interest income at the time the loan is placed on non-accrual status. Based on the Company’s judgment as to the collectability of principal, a loan on non-accrual status is either accounted for on a cash basis, where interest income is recognized only upon receipt of cash for interest payments, or on a cost-recovery basis, where all cash receipts reduce the loan’s carrying value, and interest income is only recorded when such carrying value has been fully recovered.

Loans Held for Investment

Loans that the Company has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future, or until maturity or repayment, are reported at their outstanding principal balances net of cumulative charge-offs, interest applied to principal (for loans accounted for using the cost recovery method), unamortized premiums, discounts, loan origination fees and costs. Loan origination fees and direct loan origination costs are deferred and recognized in interest income over the estimated life of the loans using the interest method, or on a straight-line basis when it approximates the interest method, adjusted for actual prepayments. Accrued but not yet collected interest is separately reported as accrued interest and fees receivable on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.

When loans are designated as held for investment, the Company’s intent is to hold the loans for the foreseeable future or until maturity or repayment. If subsequent changes in real estate or capital markets occur, the Company may change its intent or its assessment of its ability to hold these loans. Once a determination has been made to sell such loans, they are immediately transferred to loans held for sale and carried at the lower of cost or fair value in accordance with GAAP.

Non-Accrual Loans

Loans are placed on non-accrual status when the full and timely collection of principal and interest is doubtful, generally when: management determines that the borrower is incapable of, or has ceased efforts toward, curing the cause of a default; the loan becomes 90 days or more past due for principal and interest; or the loan experiences a maturity default. The Company considers an account past due when an obligor fails to pay substantially all (defined as 90%) of the scheduled contractual payments by the due date. In each case, the period of delinquency is based on the number of days payments are contractually past due. A loan may be returned to accrual status if all delinquent principal and interest payments are brought current, and collectability of the remaining principal and interest payments in accordance with the loan agreement is reasonably assured. Loans that in the judgment of the Company’s external manager, TPG RE Finance Trust Management, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the “Manager”), are adequately secured and in the process of collection are maintained on accrual status, even if they are 90 days or more past due.

Troubled Debt Restructurings

A loan is accounted for and reported as a troubled debt restructuring (“TDR”) when, for economic or legal reasons, the Company grants a concession to a borrower experiencing financial difficulty that the Company would not otherwise consider. The Company does not consider a restructuring that includes an insignificant delay in payment as a concession. A delay may be considered insignificant if the payments subject to the delay are insignificant relative to the unpaid principal balance of the loan or collateral value, and the contractual amount due, or the delay in timing of the restructured payment period, is insignificant relative to the frequency of payments, the debt’s original contractual maturity or original expected duration.

TDRs that are performing and on accrual status as of the date of the modification remain on accrual status. TDRs that are non-performing as of the date of modification usually remain on non-accrual status until the prospect of future payments in accordance with the modified loan agreement is reasonably assured, which is generally demonstrated when the borrower maintains compliance with the restructured terms for a predetermined period. TDRs with temporary below-market concessions remain designated as a TDR regardless of the accrual or performance status until the loan is paid off. However, if the TDR loan has been modified in a subsequent restructure with market terms and the borrower is not currently experiencing financial difficulty, then the loan may be de-designated as a TDR.

Credit Losses

Allowance for Credit Losses for Loans Held for Investment

On January 1, 2020, the Company adopted Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses, and subsequent amendments, which replaced the incurred loss methodology with an expected loss model known as the Current Expected Credit Loss ("CECL") model. The initial CECL reserve recorded on January 1, 2020 is reflected as a direct charge to retained earnings on the Company’s consolidated statements of changes in equity. Subsequent changes to the CECL reserve are recognized through net income on the Company’s consolidated statements of income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss). The


allowance for credit losses measured under the CECL accounting framework represents an estimate of current expected losses for the Company’s existing portfolio of loans held for investment, and is presented as a valuation reserve on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Expected credit losses inherent in non-cancelable unfunded loan commitments are accounted for as separate liabilities included in accrued expenses and other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. The allowance for credit losses for loans held for investment, as reported in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets, is adjusted by a credit loss benefit (expense), which is reported in earnings in the consolidated statements of income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss) and reduced by the charge-off of loan amounts, net of recoveries and additions related to purchased credit-deteriorated (“PCD”) assets, if relevant. The allowance for credit losses includes a modeled component and an individually-assessed component. The Company has elected to not measure an allowance for credit losses on accrued interest receivables related to all of its loans held for investment because it writes off uncollectable accrued interest receivable in a timely manner pursuant to its non-accrual policy, described above.

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

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

Quarterly, the Company evaluates the risk of all loans and assigns a risk rating based on a variety of factors, grouped as follows: (i) loan and credit structure, including the as-is LTV structural features; (ii) quality and stability of real estate value and operating cash flow, including debt yield, property type, dynamics of the geography, property type and local market, physical condition, stability of cash flow, leasing velocity and quality and diversity of tenancy; (iii) performance against underwritten business plan; and (iv) quality, experience and financial condition of sponsor, borrower and guarantor(s). Based on a 5-point scale, the Company’s loans are rated “1” through “5,” from least risk to greatest risk, respectively, which ratings are defined as follows:

1-

Outperform—Exceeds performance metrics (for example, technical milestones, occupancy, rents, net operating income) included in original or current credit underwriting and business plan;

2-

Meets or Exceeds Expectations—Collateral performance meets or exceeds substantially all performance metrics included in original or current underwriting / business plan;

3-

Satisfactory—Collateral performance meets or is on track to meet underwriting; business plan is met or can reasonably be achieved;

4-

Underperformance—Collateral performance 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—Collateral performance is significantly worse than underwriting; major variance from business plan; loan covenants or technical milestones have been breached; timely exit from loan via sale or conversion to common stock by investorsrefinancing is questionable; significant risk of such shares of Class A common stock is subject to certain restrictions. Diluted earnings per common share is calculated by including the effect of dilutive securities. The Company currently does not have any outstanding participating securities.principal loss.

Loan Origination Fees

The Company generally assigns a risk rating of “3” to all loan investments originated during the most recent quarter, except in the case of specific circumstances warranting an exception.


The Company’s CECL reserve reflects its estimation of the current and future economic conditions that impact the performance of the commercial real estate assets securing the Company’s loans. These estimations include unemployment rates, interest rates, price indices for commercial property, and other macroeconomic factors that may influence the likelihood and magnitude of potential credit losses for the Company’s loans during their anticipated term. The Company licenses certain macroeconomic financial forecasts to inform its view of the potential future impact that broader economic conditions may have on its loan portfolio’s performance. The forecasts are embedded in the licensed model that the Company uses to estimate its CECL reserve as discussed below. Selection of these economic forecasts requires significant judgment about future events that, while based on the information available to the Company as of the balance sheet date, are ultimately unknowable with certainty, and the actual economic conditions impacting the Company’s portfolio could vary significantly from the estimates the Company made for the periods presented.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the dislocation it has caused to the national economy, the commercial real estate markets, and the capital markets, the Company’s ability to estimate key inputs for estimating the allowance for credit losses has been materially and adversely impacted. Key inputs to the estimate include, but are not limited to, LTV, debt service coverage ratio, current and future operating cash flow and performance of collateral properties, the financial strength and liquidity of borrowers and sponsors, capitalization rates and discount rates used to value commercial real estate properties, and market liquidity based on market indices or observable transactions involving the sale or financing of commercial properties. Estimates made by management are necessarily subject to change due to the lack or sharply limited number of observable inputs and uncertainty regarding the duration of the COVID-19 pandemic and its aftereffects.

Credit Loss Measurement

The amount of allowance for credit losses is influenced by the size of the Company’s loan portfolio, loan asset quality, risk rating, delinquency status, historic loss experience and other conditions influencing loss expectations, such as reasonable and supportable forecasts of economic conditions. The Company employs two methods to estimate credit losses in its loan portfolio: a loss-given-default (“LGD”) model-based approach utilized for substantially all of its loans; and an individually-assessed approach for loans that the Company concludes are ill-suited for use in the model-based approach, or are individually-assessed based on accounting guidance contained in the CECL framework.

Once the expected credit loss amount is determined, an allowance for credit losses equal to the calculated expected credit loss is established. Consistent with ASC 326, a loan will be charged off through the allowance for credit losses when it is deemed non-recoverable upon a realization event. This is generally at the time the loan receivable is settled, transferred or exchanged, but non-recoverability may also be concluded by the Company if, in its determination, it is nearly certain that all amounts due will not be collected. This loss shall equal the difference between the cash received, or expected to be received, and the book value of the asset. Factors considered by management in determining if the expected credit loss is permanent or not recoverable include whether management judges the loan to be uncollectible; that is, repayment is deemed to be delayed beyond reasonable time frames, or the loss becomes evident due to the borrower’s lack of assets and liquidity, or the borrower’s sponsor is unwilling or unable to support the loan. This policy is reflective of the investor’s economics as it relates to the ultimate realization of the loan.

Allowance for Credit Losses for Loans Held for Investment – Model-Based Approach

The model-based approach to measure the allowance for credit losses relates to loans which are not individually-assessed.

The Company licenses from Trepp, LLC historical loss information, incorporating loan performance data for over 100,000 commercial real estate loans dating back to 1998, in an analytical model to compute statistical credit loss factors (i.e., probability-of-default and loss-given-default). These statistical credit loss factors are utilized together with individual loan information to estimate the allowance for credit losses. This methodology considers the unique characteristics of the Company’s commercial mortgage loan portfolio and individual assets within the portfolio by considering individual loan risk ratings, delinquency statuses and other credit trends and risk characteristics. Further, the Company incorporates its expectations about the impact of current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts on expected future credit losses in deriving its estimate. For the period beyond which the Company is able to make reasonable and supportable forecasts, the Company reverts to unadjusted historical loan loss information based on systematic methodology determined at the input level. Determining the appropriateness of the allowance is complex and requires judgment by management about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. In future periods, evaluations of the overall loan portfolio, in light of the factors and forecasts then prevailing, may result in significant changes in the allowance and credit loss expense.


Allowance for Credit Losses for Loans Held for Investment – Individually-Assessed Approach

In instances where the unique attributes of a loan investment render it ill-suited for the model-based approach because it no longer shares risk characteristics with other loans, or because the Company concludes repayment of the loan is entirely collateral-dependent, or when it is deemed probable that the Company will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan, the Company separately evaluates the amount of expected credit loss using other real estate valuation techniques, considering substantially the same credit factors as utilized in the model-dependent method. In these cases, expected credit loss is measured as the difference between the amortized cost basis of the loan and the fair value of the collateral, if repayment is expected solely from the collateral, as determined by management using valuation techniques, frequently discounted cash flow. The fair value of the collateral is adjusted for the estimated cost to sell if repayment or satisfaction of a loan is dependent on the sale (rather than the operation) of the collateral.

Unfunded Loan Commitments

The Company’s first mortgage loans often contain provisions for future funding conditioned upon the borrower’s execution of its business plan with respect to the underlying collateral property securing the loan. These deferred fundings are typically for base building work, tenant improvement costs and leasing commissions, and occasionally to fund forecasted operating deficits during lease-up, or for interest reserves. These deferred funding commitments may be for specific periods, often require satisfaction by the borrower of conditions precedent, and may contain termination clauses at the option of the borrower or, more rarely, at the Company’s option. The total amount of unfunded commitments does not necessarily represent actual amounts that may be funded in cash in the future, since commitments may expire without being drawn, may be cancelled if certain conditions are not satisfied by the borrower, or borrowers may elect not to borrow some or all of the unused commitment. The Company does not recognize these unfunded loan commitments in its consolidated financial statements.

The Company applies its expected credit loss estimates to all future funding commitments that cannot be contractually terminated at the Company’s option. The Company maintains a separate allowance for credit losses from unfunded loan commitments, which is included in accrued expenses and other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. The Company estimates the amount of expected losses by calculating a commitment usage factor over the contractual period for exposures that are not unconditionally cancellable by the Company and applies the loss factors used in the allowance for credit loss methodology described above to the results of the usage calculation to estimate the liability for credit losses related to unfunded commitments for each loan.

CRE Debt Securities

In the past, the Company acquired CRE debt securities for investment purposes. The Company designated CRE debt securities as available-for-sale (“AFS”) on the acquisition date. CRE debt securities that were classified as AFS were recorded at fair value through other comprehensive income or loss in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The Company recognized interest income on its CRE debt securities using the interest method, or on a straight-line basis when it approximated the effective interest method, with any premium or discount amortized or accreted into interest income based on the respective outstanding principal balance and corresponding contractual term of the CRE debt security. Accrued but not yet collected interest was separately reported as accrued interest receivable on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. The Company used a specific identification method when determining the cost of a CRE debt security sold and the amount of unrealized gain or loss reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income or loss into earnings on the trade date.

AFS debt securities in unrealized loss positions were evaluated for impairment related to credit losses at least quarterly. For the purpose of identifying and measuring impairment, any applicable accrued interest was excluded from both the fair value and the amortized cost basis. The Company had elected to write off accrued interest by reversing interest income in the event the accrued interest is deemed uncollectible, generally when the security became 90 days or more past due for principal and interest.

The Company first assessed whether it intended to sell the debt security or more likely than not was required to sell the debt security before recovery of its amortized cost basis. If either criterion regarding intent or requirement to sell was met, the debt security’s amortized cost basis was written down to its fair value and the write down was charged against the allowance for credit losses, with any incremental impairment reported in earnings as a loss in the consolidated statements of income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss).


Any AFS debt security in an unrealized loss position which the Company did not intend to sell or was not more likely than not required to sell before recovery of the amortized cost basis was assessed for expected credit losses. The performance indicators considered for CRE debt securities related to the underlying assets and included default rates, delinquency rates, percentage of nonperforming assets, debt-to-collateral ratios, third-party guarantees, current levels of subordination, vintage, geographic concentration, analyst reports and forecasts, credit ratings and other market data. In assessing whether a credit loss exists, the Company compared the present value of cash flows expected to be collected from the security with the amortized cost basis of the security. If the present value of cash flows expected to be collected was less than the amortized cost basis for the security, a credit loss existed and an allowance for credit losses was recorded, limited by the amount the fair value was less than amortized cost basis.

Declines in fair value of AFS debt securities in an unrealized loss position that were not due to credit losses, such as declines due to changes in market interest rates, were recorded through other comprehensive income. Any impairment that had not been recorded through an allowance for credit losses was recognized in other comprehensive income. Unrealized gains and losses on AFS debt securities presented in the consolidated statements of income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss) included the reversal of unrealized gains and losses at the time gains or losses were realized.

Real Estate Owned

Real estate acquired as a result of foreclosure or by deed-in-lieu of foreclosure is classified as real estate owned (REO) held for investment until the Company makes a determination to sell. The Company's cost basis in REO is equal to the estimated fair value of the collateral at the date of acquisition, less estimated costs to sell. The estimated fair value of the REO is determined using a discounted cash flow model using inputs that include the highest and best use for each asset, estimated future values based on extensive discussions with local brokers, investors and other market participants, the estimated holding period for the asset, and discount rates that reflect estimated investor return requirements for the risks associated with the expected use of each asset. If the fair value of the REO is lower than the carrying value of the loan, the difference, along with any previously recorded specific CECL reserve, is recorded as a realized loss in the consolidated statements of income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss). Thereafter, events or circumstances may occur that result in a material and sustained decrease in the cash flows generated from the assets, potentially leading to impairment. REO is not measured at fair value on an ongoing basis but subject to fair value adjustments only in certain circumstances, such as when there is evidence of impairment. Any impairment loss, revenue and expenses from operations of the properties and resulting gains or losses on sale are included within the consolidated statements of income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss) in Other Income, net.

Loan origination fees are reflected in loans held for investment on the consolidated balance sheets and include fees charged to borrowers. These fees are amortized into interest income over the life of the related loans held.


Deferred Financing Costs

Deferred financing costs are reflected net of the collateralized loan obligation and secured financing agreements on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. These costs are amortized in interest expense using the interest method or on a straight line basis which approximates the interest method over the life of the related obligations.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash held in banks or invested in money market funds with original maturities of less than 90 days. The Company deposits its cash and cash equivalents with high credit quality institutions to minimize credit risk exposure. The Company maintains cash accounts at several financial institutions, which are insured up to a maximum of $250,000 per account as of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016. The balances in these accounts may exceed the insured limits.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In November 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash (a consensusVIEs, and creditors of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force) (“ASU 2016-18”). The amendments in ASU 2016-18 require an entityVIEs have recourse only to reconcile and explain the period-over-period change in total cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash within its statements of cash flows. ASU 2016-18 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted. A reporting entity must apply the amendments in ASU 2016-18 using a full retrospective approach. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2016-18 to have a material impact on its consolidated statements of cash flows as the Company does not have material restricted cash activity.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“ASU 2016-13”). ASU 2016-13 significantly changes how entities will measure credit losses for most financialthese assets, and certain other instruments that are not measured at fair valueto TPG RE Finance Trust, Inc.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

(1) Business and Organization

TPG RE Finance Trust, Inc. (together with its consolidated subsidiaries, “we,” “us,” “our” or the “Company”) is organized as a holding company and conducts its operations primarily through TPG RE Finance Trust Holdco, LLC (“Holdco”), a Delaware limited liability company that is wholly owned by the Company, and Holdco’s direct and indirect subsidiaries. The Company conducts its operations as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) for U.S. federal income tax purposes. The Company is generally not subject to U.S. federal income taxes on its REIT taxable income to the extent that it annually distributes all of its REIT taxable income to stockholders and maintain its qualification as a REIT. The Company also operates its business in a manner that permits it to maintain an exclusion from registration under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

The Company’s principal business activity is to directly originate and acquire a diversified portfolio of commercial real estate related assets, consisting primarily of first mortgage loans and senior participation interests in first mortgage loans secured by institutional-quality properties in primary and select secondary markets in the United States. The Company has in the past invested in commercial real estate debt securities (“CRE debt securities”), primarily investment-grade commercial mortgage-backed securities (“CMBS”) and commercial real estate collateralized loan obligation securities (“CRE CLOs”).

(2) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The interim consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). The interim consolidated financial statements include the Company’s accounts, consolidated variable interest entities for which the Company is the primary beneficiary, and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. The Company believes it has made all necessary adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring items, so that the consolidated financial statements are presented fairly and that estimates made in preparing the consolidated financial statements are reasonable and prudent. The operating results presented for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any other interim period or for the entire year. These interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 24, 2021.

Risks and Uncertainties

The coronavirus pandemic (“COVID-19”) resulted in broad challenges globally, has contributed to significant volatility in financial markets and continues to adversely impact global commercial activity. The impact of the outbreak has evolved rapidly around the globe, with many countries taking drastic measures to limit the spread of the virus by instituting quarantines or lockdowns and imposing travel restrictions. Such actions have created significant disruptions to global supply chains, and adversely impacted several industries, including but not limited to, airlines, hospitality, retail and the broader real estate industry.

COVID-19 has had a continued and prolonged adverse impact on economic and market conditions and triggered a period of global economic slowdown which has and could continue to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results and financial condition. Many jurisdictions have re-opened with social distancing measures implemented to curtail the spread of COVID-19, and multiple vaccines have been approved for use in the United States. Although the Company has observed preliminary signs of economic recovery, the Company cannot predict the time required for a meaningful economic recovery to take place. Additional surges in new cases of COVID-19 and mutated strains of the virus have caused additional quarantines and lockdowns, which could delay any economic recovery. The nationwide vaccination program is ongoing and its effectiveness remains uncertain. These factors could further materially and adversely affect the Company’s results and financial condition.

The full impact of COVID-19 on the real estate industry, the credit markets and consequently on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations is uncertain and cannot be predicted currently since it depends on several factors beyond the control of the Company including, but not limited to (i) the uncertainty surrounding the severity and duration of the outbreak, including possible recurrences and differing economic and social impacts of the outbreak in various regions of the United States, (ii) the effectiveness of the United States public health response, (iii) the pandemic’s impact on the United States and global economies, (iv) the timing, scope and effectiveness of additional governmental responses to the pandemic, (v) the timing and speed of economic recovery, including the availability of a treatment and effectiveness of vaccines approved for COVID-19, (vi) changes in how certain


types of commercial property are used while maintaining social distancing and other techniques intended to control the impact of COVID-19, and (vii) the negative impact on the Company’s borrowers, real estate values and cost of capital.

Reclassifications

Certain amounts in the Company’s prior period consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the presentation of the Company’s current period consolidated financial statements. These reclassifications had no effect on the Company’s previously reported net income. Amounts related to Collateralized Loan Obligation Proceeds Held at Trustee were reclassified from Accounts Receivable from Servicer/Trustee balance in prior period balance sheet to conform to current period presentation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the interim consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires estimates of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the interim consolidated financial statements. Actual results could differ from management’s estimates, and such differences could be material. Significant estimates made in the interim consolidated financial statements include, but are not limited to, the adequacy of our allowance for credit losses and the valuation inputs related thereto and the valuation of financial instruments. Actual amounts and values as of the balance sheet dates may be materially different than the amounts and values reported due to the inherent uncertainty in the estimation process and the limited availability of observable pricing inputs due to market dislocation resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. Also, future amounts and values could differ materially from those estimates due to changes in values and circumstances after the balance sheet date and the limited availability of observable prices.

Principles of Consolidation

Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 810—Consolidation (“ASC 810”) provides guidance on the identification of a variable interest entity (“VIE”), for which control is achieved through means other than voting rights, and the determination of which business enterprise, if any, should consolidate the VIE. An entity is considered a VIE if any of the following applies: (1) the equity investors (if any) lack one or more of the essential characteristics of a controlling financial interest; (2) the equity investment at risk is insufficient to finance that entity’s activities without additional subordinated financial support; or (3) the equity investors have voting rights that are not proportionate to their economic interests and the activities of the entity involve or are conducted on behalf of an investor with a disproportionately small voting interest. The Company consolidates VIEs in which the Company is considered to be the primary beneficiary. The primary beneficiary is defined as the entity having both of the following characteristics: (1) the power to direct the activities that, when taken together, most significantly impact the VIE’s performance; and (2) the obligation to absorb losses and right to receive the returns from the VIE that would be significant to the VIE. The Company determined that TRTX 2021-FL4, a collateralized loan obligation issued on March 31, 2021, is a VIE and is consolidated in accordance with GAAP. See Note 6 for details regarding issuance of TRTX 2021-FL4.

At each reporting date, the Company reconsiders its primary beneficiary conclusions for all its VIEs to determine if its obligation to absorb losses of, or its rights to receive benefits from, the VIE could potentially be more than insignificant, and will consolidate or not consolidate in accordance with GAAP. See Note 6 for details.

Revenue Recognition

Interest income on loans is accrued using the interest method based on the contractual terms of the loan, adjusted for expected or realized credit losses, if any. The objective of the interest method is to arrive at periodic interest income, including recognition of fees and costs, at a constant effective yield. Premiums, discounts, and origination fees are amortized or accreted into interest income over the lives of the loans using the interest method, or on a straight-line basis when it approximates the interest method. Extension and modification fees are accreted into income on a straight-line basis, when it approximates the interest method, over the related extension or modification period. Exit fees are accreted into interest income on a straight-line basis, when it approximates the interest method, over the lives of the loans to which they relate unless they can be waived by the Company or a co-lender in connection with a loan refinancing, or if timely collection of principal and interest is doubtful. Prepayment penalties from borrowers are recognized as interest income when received. Certain of the Company’s loan investments have in the past, and may in the future, provide for additional interest based on the borrower’s operating cash flow or appreciation of the underlying collateral. Such amounts are considered contingent interest and are reflected as interest income only upon certainty of collection. Certain of the Company’s loan investments have in the past, and may in the future, provide for the accrual of interest (in part, or in whole) instead of its current payment in cash, with the accrued interest (“PIK interest”) added to the unpaid principal balance of the loan. Such PIK interest is recognized currently as interest income unless the Company concludes eventual collection is unlikely, in which case the PIK interest is written off.


All interest accrued but not received for loans placed on non-accrual status is subtracted from interest income at the time the loan is placed on non-accrual status. Based on the Company’s judgment as to the collectability of principal, a loan on non-accrual status is either accounted for on a cash basis, where interest income is recognized only upon receipt of cash for interest payments, or on a cost-recovery basis, where all cash receipts reduce the loan’s carrying value, and interest income is only recorded when such carrying value has been fully recovered.

Loans Held for Investment

Loans that the Company has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future, or until maturity or repayment, are reported at their outstanding principal balances net of cumulative charge-offs, interest applied to principal (for loans accounted for using the cost recovery method), unamortized premiums, discounts, loan origination fees and costs. Loan origination fees and direct loan origination costs are deferred and recognized in interest income over the estimated life of the loans using the interest method, or on a straight-line basis when it approximates the interest method, adjusted for actual prepayments. Accrued but not yet collected interest is separately reported as accrued interest and fees receivable on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.

When loans are designated as held for investment, the Company’s intent is to hold the loans for the foreseeable future or until maturity or repayment. If subsequent changes in real estate or capital markets occur, the Company may change its intent or its assessment of its ability to hold these loans. Once a determination has been made to sell such loans, they are immediately transferred to loans held for sale and carried at the lower of cost or fair value in accordance with GAAP.

Non-Accrual Loans

Loans are placed on non-accrual status when the full and timely collection of principal and interest is doubtful, generally when: management determines that the borrower is incapable of, or has ceased efforts toward, curing the cause of a default; the loan becomes 90 days or more past due for principal and interest; or the loan experiences a maturity default. The Company considers an account past due when an obligor fails to pay substantially all (defined as 90%) of the scheduled contractual payments by the due date. In each case, the period of delinquency is based on the number of days payments are contractually past due. A loan may be returned to accrual status if all delinquent principal and interest payments are brought current, and collectability of the remaining principal and interest payments in accordance with the loan agreement is reasonably assured. Loans that in the judgment of the Company’s external manager, TPG RE Finance Trust Management, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the “Manager”), are adequately secured and in the process of collection are maintained on accrual status, even if they are 90 days or more past due.

Troubled Debt Restructurings

A loan is accounted for and reported as a troubled debt restructuring (“TDR”) when, for economic or legal reasons, the Company grants a concession to a borrower experiencing financial difficulty that the Company would not otherwise consider. The Company does not consider a restructuring that includes an insignificant delay in payment as a concession. A delay may be considered insignificant if the payments subject to the delay are insignificant relative to the unpaid principal balance of the loan or collateral value, and the contractual amount due, or the delay in timing of the restructured payment period, is insignificant relative to the frequency of payments, the debt’s original contractual maturity or original expected duration.

TDRs that are performing and on accrual status as of the date of the modification remain on accrual status. TDRs that are non-performing as of the date of modification usually remain on non-accrual status until the prospect of future payments in accordance with the modified loan agreement is reasonably assured, which is generally demonstrated when the borrower maintains compliance with the restructured terms for a predetermined period. TDRs with temporary below-market concessions remain designated as a TDR regardless of the accrual or performance status until the loan is paid off. However, if the TDR loan has been modified in a subsequent restructure with market terms and the borrower is not currently experiencing financial difficulty, then the loan may be de-designated as a TDR.

Credit Losses

Allowance for Credit Losses for Loans Held for Investment

On January 1, 2020, the Company adopted Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses, and subsequent amendments, which replaced the incurred loss methodology with an expected loss model known as the Current Expected Credit Loss ("CECL") model. The initial CECL reserve recorded on January 1, 2020 is reflected as a direct charge to retained earnings on the Company’s consolidated statements of changes in equity. Subsequent changes to the CECL reserve are recognized through net income on the Company’s consolidated statements of income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss). The


allowance for credit losses measured under the CECL accounting framework represents an estimate of current expected losses for the Company’s existing portfolio of loans held for investment, and is presented as a valuation reserve on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Expected credit losses inherent in non-cancelable unfunded loan commitments are accounted for as separate liabilities included in accrued expenses and other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. The allowance for credit losses for loans held for investment, as reported in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets, is adjusted by a credit loss benefit (expense), which is reported in earnings in the consolidated statements of income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss) and reduced by the charge-off of loan amounts, net of recoveries and additions related to purchased credit-deteriorated (“PCD”) assets, if relevant. The allowance for credit losses includes a modeled component and an individually-assessed component. The Company has elected to not measure an allowance for credit losses on accrued interest receivables related to all of its loans held for investment because it writes off uncollectable accrued interest receivable in a timely manner pursuant to its non-accrual policy, described above.

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

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

Quarterly, the Company evaluates the risk of all loans and assigns a risk rating based on a variety of factors, grouped as follows: (i) loan and credit structure, including the as-is LTV structural features; (ii) quality and stability of real estate value and operating cash flow, including debt yield, property type, dynamics of the geography, property type and local market, physical condition, stability of cash flow, leasing velocity and quality and diversity of tenancy; (iii) performance against underwritten business plan; and (iv) quality, experience and financial condition of sponsor, borrower and guarantor(s). Based on a 5-point scale, the Company’s loans are rated “1” through “5,” from least risk to greatest risk, respectively, which ratings are defined as follows:

1-

Outperform—Exceeds performance metrics (for example, technical milestones, occupancy, rents, net income. ASU 2016-13 will replace the “incurred loss” model under existing guidance with an “expected loss” model for instruments measured at amortized cost,operating income) included in original or current credit underwriting and require entitiesbusiness plan;

2-

Meets or Exceeds Expectations—Collateral performance meets or exceeds substantially all performance metrics included in original or current underwriting / business plan;

3-

Satisfactory—Collateral performance meets or is on track to record allowances for available-for-sale debt securities rathermeet underwriting; business plan is met or can reasonably be achieved;

4-

Underperformance—Collateral performance 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—Collateral performance is significantly worse than reduceunderwriting; major variance from business plan; loan covenants or technical milestones have been breached; timely exit from loan via sale or refinancing is questionable; significant risk of principal loss.

The Company generally assigns a risk rating of “3” to all loan investments originated during the most recent quarter, except in the case of specific circumstances warranting an exception.


The Company’s CECL reserve reflects its estimation of the current and future economic conditions that impact the performance of the commercial real estate assets securing the Company’s loans. These estimations include unemployment rates, interest rates, price indices for commercial property, and other macroeconomic factors that may influence the likelihood and magnitude of potential credit losses for the Company’s loans during their anticipated term. The Company licenses certain macroeconomic financial forecasts to inform its view of the potential future impact that broader economic conditions may have on its loan portfolio’s performance. The forecasts are embedded in the licensed model that the Company uses to estimate its CECL reserve as discussed below. Selection of these economic forecasts requires significant judgment about future events that, while based on the information available to the Company as of the balance sheet date, are ultimately unknowable with certainty, and the actual economic conditions impacting the Company’s portfolio could vary significantly from the estimates the Company made for the periods presented.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the dislocation it has caused to the national economy, the commercial real estate markets, and the capital markets, the Company’s ability to estimate key inputs for estimating the allowance for credit losses has been materially and adversely impacted. Key inputs to the estimate include, but are not limited to, LTV, debt service coverage ratio, current and future operating cash flow and performance of collateral properties, the financial strength and liquidity of borrowers and sponsors, capitalization rates and discount rates used to value commercial real estate properties, and market liquidity based on market indices or observable transactions involving the sale or financing of commercial properties. Estimates made by management are necessarily subject to change due to the lack or sharply limited number of observable inputs and uncertainty regarding the duration of the COVID-19 pandemic and its aftereffects.

Credit Loss Measurement

The amount of allowance for credit losses is influenced by the size of the Company’s loan portfolio, loan asset quality, risk rating, delinquency status, historic loss experience and other conditions influencing loss expectations, such as reasonable and supportable forecasts of economic conditions. The Company employs two methods to estimate credit losses in its loan portfolio: a loss-given-default (“LGD”) model-based approach utilized for substantially all of its loans; and an individually-assessed approach for loans that the Company concludes are ill-suited for use in the model-based approach, or are individually-assessed based on accounting guidance contained in the CECL framework.

Once the expected credit loss amount is determined, an allowance for credit losses equal to the calculated expected credit loss is established. Consistent with ASC 326, a loan will be charged off through the allowance for credit losses when it is deemed non-recoverable upon a realization event. This is generally at the time the loan receivable is settled, transferred or exchanged, but non-recoverability may also be concluded by the Company if, in its determination, it is nearly certain that all amounts due will not be collected. This loss shall equal the difference between the cash received, or expected to be received, and the book value of the asset. Factors considered by management in determining if the expected credit loss is permanent or not recoverable include whether management judges the loan to be uncollectible; that is, repayment is deemed to be delayed beyond reasonable time frames, or the loss becomes evident due to the borrower’s lack of assets and liquidity, or the borrower’s sponsor is unwilling or unable to support the loan. This policy is reflective of the investor’s economics as it relates to the ultimate realization of the loan.

Allowance for Credit Losses for Loans Held for Investment – Model-Based Approach

The model-based approach to measure the allowance for credit losses relates to loans which are not individually-assessed.

The Company licenses from Trepp, LLC historical loss information, incorporating loan performance data for over 100,000 commercial real estate loans dating back to 1998, in an analytical model to compute statistical credit loss factors (i.e., probability-of-default and loss-given-default). These statistical credit loss factors are utilized together with individual loan information to estimate the allowance for credit losses. This methodology considers the unique characteristics of the Company’s commercial mortgage loan portfolio and individual assets within the portfolio by considering individual loan risk ratings, delinquency statuses and other credit trends and risk characteristics. Further, the Company incorporates its expectations about the impact of current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts on expected future credit losses in deriving its estimate. For the period beyond which the Company is able to make reasonable and supportable forecasts, the Company reverts to unadjusted historical loan loss information based on systematic methodology determined at the input level. Determining the appropriateness of the allowance is complex and requires judgment by management about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. In future periods, evaluations of the overall loan portfolio, in light of the factors and forecasts then prevailing, may result in significant changes in the allowance and credit loss expense.


Allowance for Credit Losses for Loans Held for Investment – Individually-Assessed Approach

In instances where the unique attributes of a loan investment render it ill-suited for the model-based approach because it no longer shares risk characteristics with other loans, or because the Company concludes repayment of the loan is entirely collateral-dependent, or when it is deemed probable that the Company will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan, the Company separately evaluates the amount of expected credit loss using other real estate valuation techniques, considering substantially the same credit factors as utilized in the model-dependent method. In these cases, expected credit loss is measured as the difference between the amortized cost basis of the loan and the fair value of the collateral, if repayment is expected solely from the collateral, as determined by management using valuation techniques, frequently discounted cash flow. The fair value of the collateral is adjusted for the estimated cost to sell if repayment or satisfaction of a loan is dependent on the sale (rather than the operation) of the collateral.

Unfunded Loan Commitments

The Company’s first mortgage loans often contain provisions for future funding conditioned upon the borrower’s execution of its business plan with respect to the underlying collateral property securing the loan. These deferred fundings are typically for base building work, tenant improvement costs and leasing commissions, and occasionally to fund forecasted operating deficits during lease-up, or for interest reserves. These deferred funding commitments may be for specific periods, often require satisfaction by the borrower of conditions precedent, and may contain termination clauses at the option of the borrower or, more rarely, at the Company’s option. The total amount of unfunded commitments does not necessarily represent actual amounts that may be funded in cash in the future, since commitments may expire without being drawn, may be cancelled if certain conditions are not satisfied by the borrower, or borrowers may elect not to borrow some or all of the unused commitment. The Company does not recognize these unfunded loan commitments in its consolidated financial statements.

The Company applies its expected credit loss estimates to all future funding commitments that cannot be contractually terminated at the Company’s option. The Company maintains a separate allowance for credit losses from unfunded loan commitments, which is included in accrued expenses and other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. The Company estimates the amount of expected losses by calculating a commitment usage factor over the contractual period for exposures that are not unconditionally cancellable by the Company and applies the loss factors used in the allowance for credit loss methodology described above to the results of the usage calculation to estimate the liability for credit losses related to unfunded commitments for each loan.

CRE Debt Securities

In the past, the Company acquired CRE debt securities for investment purposes. The Company designated CRE debt securities as available-for-sale (“AFS”) on the acquisition date. CRE debt securities that were classified as AFS were recorded at fair value through other comprehensive income or loss in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The Company recognized interest income on its CRE debt securities using the interest method, or on a straight-line basis when it approximated the effective interest method, with any premium or discount amortized or accreted into interest income based on the respective outstanding principal balance and corresponding contractual term of the CRE debt security. Accrued but not yet collected interest was separately reported as accrued interest receivable on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. The Company used a specific identification method when determining the cost of a CRE debt security sold and the amount of unrealized gain or loss reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income or loss into earnings on the trade date.

AFS debt securities in unrealized loss positions were evaluated for impairment related to credit losses at least quarterly. For the purpose of identifying and measuring impairment, any applicable accrued interest was excluded from both the fair value and the amortized cost basis. The Company had elected to write off accrued interest by reversing interest income in the event the accrued interest is deemed uncollectible, generally when the security became 90 days or more past due for principal and interest.

The Company first assessed whether it intended to sell the debt security or more likely than not was required to sell the debt security before recovery of its amortized cost basis. If either criterion regarding intent or requirement to sell was met, the debt security’s amortized cost basis was written down to its fair value and the write down was charged against the allowance for credit losses, with any incremental impairment reported in earnings as a loss in the consolidated statements of income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss).


Any AFS debt security in an unrealized loss position which the Company did not intend to sell or was not more likely than not required to sell before recovery of the amortized cost basis was assessed for expected credit losses. The performance indicators considered for CRE debt securities related to the underlying assets and included default rates, delinquency rates, percentage of nonperforming assets, debt-to-collateral ratios, third-party guarantees, current levels of subordination, vintage, geographic concentration, analyst reports and forecasts, credit ratings and other market data. In assessing whether a credit loss exists, the Company compared the present value of cash flows expected to be collected from the security with the amortized cost basis of the security. If the present value of cash flows expected to be collected was less than the amortized cost basis for the security, a credit loss existed and an allowance for credit losses was recorded, limited by the amount the fair value was less than amortized cost basis.

Declines in fair value of AFS debt securities in an unrealized loss position that were not due to credit losses, such as declines due to changes in market interest rates, were recorded through other comprehensive income. Any impairment that had not been recorded through an allowance for credit losses was recognized in other comprehensive income. Unrealized gains and losses on AFS debt securities presented in the consolidated statements of income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss) included the reversal of unrealized gains and losses at the time gains or losses were realized.

Real Estate Owned

Real estate acquired as a result of foreclosure or by deed-in-lieu of foreclosure is classified as real estate owned (REO) held for investment until the Company makes a determination to sell. The Company's cost basis in REO is equal to the estimated fair value of the collateral at the date of acquisition, less estimated costs to sell. The estimated fair value of the REO is determined using a discounted cash flow model using inputs that include the highest and best use for each asset, estimated future values based on extensive discussions with local brokers, investors and other market participants, the estimated holding period for the asset, and discount rates that reflect estimated investor return requirements for the risks associated with the expected use of each asset. If the fair value of the REO is lower than the carrying value of the loan, the difference, along with any previously recorded specific CECL reserve, is recorded as a realized loss in the consolidated statements of income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss). Thereafter, events or circumstances may occur that result in a material and sustained decrease in the cash flows generated from the assets, potentially leading to impairment. REO is not measured at fair value on an ongoing basis but subject to fair value adjustments only in certain circumstances, such as when there is evidence of impairment. Any impairment loss, revenue and expenses from operations of the properties and resulting gains or losses on sale are included within the consolidated statements of income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss) in Other Income, net.

Portfolio Financing Arrangements

The Company finances its portfolio of loans, or participation interests therein, and REO using secured credit agreements, including secured credit facilities, mortgage loans payable, and collateralized loan obligations. The related borrowings are recorded as separate liabilities on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Interest income earned on the investments and interest expense incurred on the related borrowings are reported separately on the Company’s consolidated statements of income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss).

In certain instances, the Company creates structural leverage through the co-origination or non-recourse syndication of a senior loan interest to a third party. For all such syndications the Company has completed through March 31, 2021, the Company transferred, on a non-recourse basis, 100% of the senior mortgage loan that the Company originated to a third-party lender, and retained as a loan investment a separate mezzanine loan investment secured by a pledge of the equity in the mortgage borrower. With respect to the senior mortgage loan so transferred, the Company retains: no control over the mortgage loan; no economic interest in the mortgage loan; and no recourse to the purchaser or the borrower. Consequently, based on these circumstances and because the Company does not have any continuing involvement with the transferred senior mortgage loan, these syndications are accounted for as sales under GAAP and are removed from the Company’s consolidated financial statements at the time of transfer. The Company’s consolidated balance sheets only include the separate mezzanine loan remaining after the transfer.

For more information regarding the Company’s portfolio financing arrangements, see Note 7.


Fair Value Measurements

The Company follows ASC 820-10, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820-10”), for its holdings of financial instruments. ASC 820-10 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with GAAP and expands disclosure of fair value measurements. ASC 820-10 determines fair value to be the price that would be received for a financial instrument in a current sale, which assumes an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The Company determines the estimated fair value of financial assets and liabilities using the three-tier fair value hierarchy established by GAAP, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. GAAP establishes market-based or observable inputs as the preferred source of values followed by valuation models using management assumptions in the absence of market inputs. The financial instruments recorded at fair value on a recurring basis in the Company’s consolidated financial statements are cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash. The three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value are as follows:

Level I—Valuations based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access.

Level II—Valuations based on quoted prices in markets that are not active or for which all significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly.

Level III—Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement.

For certain financial instruments, the various inputs that management uses to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, the determination of which category within the fair value hierarchy is appropriate for such financial instrument is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the financial instrument. The Company may use valuation techniques consistent with the market and income approaches to measure the fair value of its assets and liabilities. The market approach uses third-party valuations and information obtained from market transactions involving identical or similar assets or liabilities. The income approach uses projections of the future economic benefits of an instrument to determine its fair value, such as in the discounted cash flow methodology. The inputs or methodology used for valuing financial instruments are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in these financial instruments. Transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy are assumed to occur at the end of the reporting period.

The following methods and assumptions are used by our Manager to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate that value:

Cash and cash equivalents: the carrying amount as they do today under the other-than-temporary impairment model. It also simplifies the accounting modelof cash and cash equivalents approximates fair value.

Loans held for purchased credit-impaired debt securitiesinvestment, net: using a discounted cash flow methodology employing a discount rate for loans of comparable credit quality, structure, and loans. ASU 2016-13 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019LTV based upon appraisal information and is to be adopted through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings ascurrent estimates of the beginningvalue of collateral property performed by the Manager, and credit spreads for loans of comparable risk (as determined by the Manager based on the factors previously described) as corroborated by inquiry of other market participants.

Secured credit facilities and mortgage loan payable: based on the rate at which a similar secured credit facility or mortgage loan payable would currently be priced, as corroborated by inquiry of other market participants.

CRE Collateralized Loan Obligations, net: utilizing indications of value from dealers active in trading similar or substantially similar securities, observable quotes from market data services, reported prices and spreads for recent new issues, and Manager estimates of the first reporting period incredit spread on which the guidance is effective. The Company is currently evaluating the impact ASU 2016-13 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In May 2014, FASBsimilar bonds would be issued, ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) (“ASU 2014-09”). ASU 2014-09 is a comprehensive new revenue recognition model requiring a company to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to a customer at an amount reflecting the consideration it expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. In August 2015, the FASB issued an update (“ASU 2015-14”) to Topic 606, Deferral of the Effective Date, which defers the adoption of ASU 2014-09 to interim and annual reporting periods in fiscal years that begin after December 15, 2018. In March 2016, the FASB issued an update (“ASU 2016-08”) to Topic 606, Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net), which clarifies the implementation guidance on principal versus agent considerationstraded, in the new revenue recognition standard pursuantissue and secondary markets.

Other assets and liabilities subject to ASU 2014-09. fair value measurement, including receivables, payables and accrued liabilities have carrying values that approximate fair value due to their short-term nature.

As discussed above, market-based or observable inputs are generally the preferred source of values for purposes of measuring the fair value of the Company’s assets under GAAP. The commercial property investment sales and commercial mortgage loan markets have and continue to experience extreme volatility, sharply reduced transaction volume, reduced liquidity, and disruption as a result of COVID-19, which has made it more difficult to rely on market-based inputs in connection with the valuation of the Company’s assets under GAAP. Key valuation inputs include, but are not limited to, future operating cash flow and performance of collateral properties, the financial strength and liquidity of borrowers and sponsors, capitalization rates and discount rates used to value commercial real estate properties, and observable transactions involving the sale or financing of commercial properties. In the


absence of market inputs, GAAP permits the use of management assumptions to measure fair value. However, the considerable market volatility and disruption caused by COVID-19 and the considerable uncertainty regarding the ultimate impact and duration of the pandemic have made it more difficult for the Company’s management to formulate assumptions to measure the fair value of the Company’s assets.

Income Taxes

The Company qualifies and has elected to be taxed as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, commencing with its initial taxable year ended December 31, 2014. To the extent that it annually distributes at least 90% of its REIT taxable income to stockholders and complies with various other requirements as a REIT, the Company generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income taxes on its distributed REIT taxable income. In 2017, the Internal Revenue Service issued a revenue procedure permitting “publicly offered” REITs to make elective stock dividends (i.e. dividends paid in a mixture of stock and cash), with at least 20% of the total distribution being paid in cash, to satisfy their REIT distribution requirements. Pursuant to this revenue procedure, the Company may elect to make future distributions of its taxable income in a mixture of stock and cash. If the Company fails to continue to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year and does not qualify for certain statutory relief provisions, the Company will be subject to U.S. federal and state income taxes at regular corporate rates beginning with the year in which it fails to qualify and may be precluded from being able to elect to be treated as a REIT for the Company’s four subsequent taxable years. Even though the Company currently qualifies for taxation as a REIT, the Company may be subject to certain U.S. federal, state, local and foreign taxes on the Company’s income and property and to U.S. federal income and excise taxes on the Company’s undistributed REIT taxable income.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the periods in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the period in which the enactment date occurs. Under ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes (“ASC 740”), a valuation allowance is established when management believes it is more likely than not that a deferred tax asset will not be realized. The Company intends to continue to operate in a manner consistent with, and to continue to meet the requirements to be treated as, a REIT for tax purposes and to distribute all of its REIT taxable income. Accordingly, the Company does not expect to pay corporate level federal taxes.

Earnings per Common Share

The Company utilizes the two-class method when assessing participating securities to calculate earnings per common share. Basic earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income attributable to common stockholders (i.e., holders of common stock and, when it was outstanding, Class A common stock), by the weighted-average number of common shares (both common stock and, when it was outstanding, Class A common stock) outstanding during the period. The preferences, rights, voting powers, restrictions, limitations as to dividends and other distributions, qualifications and terms and conditions of redemption of the Class A common stock were identical to the common stock, except (1) the Class A common stock was not a “margin security” as defined in Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the U.S. Federal Reserve System (and rulings and interpretations thereunder) and could not be listed on a national securities exchange or a national market system and (2) each share of Class A common stock was convertible at any time or from time to time, at the option of the holder, for one fully paid and non-assessable share of common stock. See Note 13 for details regarding the conversion of Class A common stock.

Diluted earnings per share is computed under the more dilutive of the treasury stock method or the two-class method. The computation of diluted earnings per share is based on the weighted average number of participating securities outstanding plus the incremental shares that would be outstanding assuming exercise of warrants (the “Warrants”, see Note 13) issued in connection with the Company’s Series B Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock (“Series B Preferred”), which are exercisable only on a net-share settlement basis. The number of incremental shares is calculated utilizing the treasury stock method. The Company accounts for unvested share-based payment awards that contain non-forfeitable dividend rights or dividend equivalents (whether paid or unpaid) as participating securities, which are included in the computation of earnings per share pursuant to the two-class method. The Company excludes participating securities and warrants from the calculation of diluted weighted average shares outstanding in periods of net losses since their effect would be anti-dilutive.

Share-Based Compensation

Share-based compensation consists of awards issued by the Company to certain employees of affiliates of the Manager and certain members of the Company’s Board of Directors. These share-based awards generally vest in installments over a fixed period of time. Deferred stock units granted to the Company’s Board of Directors fully vest on the grant date and accrue dividends that are paid-


in kind through additional deferred stock units on a quarterly basis. Compensation expense is recognized in net income on a straight-line basis over the applicable award’s vesting period. Forfeitures of share-based awards are recognized as they occur.

Deferred Financing Costs

Deferred financing costs are reflected net of the collateralized loan obligations, secured credit arrangements, and mortgage loan payable on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. These costs are amortized in interest expense using the interest method, or on a straight-line basis when it approximates the interest method, as follows: (a) for secured credit arrangements other than our CRE CLOs, the initial term of the financing arrangement, or in case of costs directly associated with the loan, over the life of the facility or the loan, whichever is shorter; (b) for deferred financing costs related to mortgage loan payable, the initial maturities of the underlying loan(s) pledged to support the specific borrowing; and (c) for CRE CLOs issued by the Company’s subsidiaries, over the estimated life of the liabilities issued based on the initial maturity dates of the underlying loans currently held by each trust based upon the expected repayment behavior of the loans collateralizing the notes after giving effect to the reinvestment period, all as of the closing date.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash held in banks or invested in money market funds with original maturities of less than 90 days. The Company deposits its cash and cash equivalents with high credit quality institutions to minimize credit risk exposure. The Company maintains cash accounts at several financial institutions, which are insured up to a maximum of $250,000 per account as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2019. The balances in these accounts may exceed the insured limits.

Pursuant to financial covenants applicable to Holdco, which is the guarantor of the Company’s recourse indebtedness, the Company is required to maintain minimum cash equal to the greater of (i) $10 million or (ii) the product of 5% and the aggregate recourse indebtedness of the Company. To comply with this covenant, the Company held as part of its total cash balances $10.8 million and $19.1 million, respectively, at March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020.

Restricted Cash

Restricted cash primarily represents deposit proceeds from potential borrowers which may be returned to borrowers, after deducting transaction costs paid by the Company for the benefit of the borrowers, upon the closing of a loan transaction.

Collateralized Loan Obligation Proceeds Held at Trustee

Collateralized Loan Obligation Proceeds Held at Trustee represent the TRTX 2021-FL4 Ramp-Up Account in an amount of approximately $308.9 million available to purchase eligible collateral interests from the Company during a ramp-up period of approximately six months following the FL4 Closing Date. See Note 6 for details of the TRTX 2021-FL4 issuance. Also included is cash held by the Company’s CRE CLOs pending reinvestment in eligible collateral.

Accounts Receivable from Servicer/Trustee

Accounts receivable from Servicer/Trustee represents cash proceeds from loan activities that have not been remitted to the Company based on established servicing and borrowing procedures. Such amounts are generally held by the Servicer/Trustee for less than 30 days before being remitted to the Company.

Temporary Equity

Equity instruments that are redeemable for cash or other assets are classified as temporary equity if the instrument is redeemable, at the option of the holder, at a fixed or determinable price on a fixed or determinable date or upon the occurrence of an event that is not solely within the control of the issuer. Redeemable equity instruments are initially carried at the relative fair value of the equity instrument at the issuance date, which is subsequently adjusted at each balance sheet date if the instrument is currently redeemable or probable of becoming redeemable. The Series B Preferred Stock issued in connection with the Investment Agreement described in Note 13 is classified as temporary equity in the accompanying financial statements. The Company elected the accreted redemption value method under which it accretes changes in the redemption value over the period from the date of issuance of the Series B Preferred Stock to the earliest costless redemption date (the fourth anniversary) using the effective interest method, as described in Note 13. Such adjustments are included in Accretion of Discount on Series B Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock on the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Changes in Equity and treated similarly to a dividend on preferred stock for GAAP purposes.


Recently Issued Accounting Guidance

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting ("ASU 2020-04"). ASU 2020-04 provides optional expedients and exceptions to GAAP requirements for modifications to debt agreements, leases, derivatives, and other contracts, related to the expected market transition from LIBOR, and certain other floating rate benchmark indices, or collectively, IBORs, to alternative reference rates. ASU 2020-04 generally considers contract modifications related to reference rate reform to be an event that does not require contract remeasurement at the modification date nor a reassessment of a previous accounting determination. In January 2021, the FASB clarified the scope of that guidance with the issuance of ASU 2021-01, “Reference Rate Reform: Scope.” This ASU provides optional guidance for a limited period of time to ease the burden in accounting for (or recognizing the effects of) reference rate reform on financial reporting. This would apply to companies meeting certain criteria that have contracts, hedging relationships and other transactions that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. This standard is effective for the Company immediately and may be applied prospectively to contract modifications made and hedging relationships entered into or evaluated on or before December 31, 2022. The Company continues to evaluate the documentation and control processes associated with its assets and liabilities to manage the transition away from LIBOR to an alternative rate endorsed by the Alternative Reference Rates Committee of the Federal Reserve System, and continues to utilize required resources to revise its control and risk management systems to ensure there is no disruption to our day-to-day operations from the transition, when it does occur. The Company will continue to employ prudent risk management as it relates to the potential financial, operational and legal risks associated with the expected cessation of LIBOR, and to ensure that its assets and liabilities generally remain match-indexed following this event. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2020-04 on its consolidated financial statements.

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt – Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815 – 40) (“ASU 2020-06”). ASU 2020-06 simplifies the accounting for certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity, including convertible instruments and contracts on an entity’s own equity. The ASU is part of the FASB’s simplification initiative, which aims to reduce unnecessary complexity in GAAP. The ASU’s amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2020-06 on its consolidated financial statements.

In October 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-10, Codification Improvements, which updates various codification topics by clarifying or improving disclosure requirements to align with the SEC’s regulations. The ASU’s amendments are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2021. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2020-04 on its consolidated financial statements.

(3) Loans Held for Investment and the Allowance for Credit Losses

The Company originates and acquires first mortgage and mezzanine loans secured by commercial properties. The Company considers these loans to belong to a single portfolio of mortgage loans, and the Company has developed its systematic methodology to determine the allowance for credit losses based on a single portfolio. For purposes of certain disclosures herein, the Company disaggregates this portfolio segment into the following classes of finance receivables: Senior loans; and Subordinated and Mezzanine loans. These loans can potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk as measured by various metrics, including, without limitation, property type collateralizing the loan, loan size, loans to a single sponsor and loans in a single geographic area. The Company’s loans held for investment are accounted for at amortized cost. Interest accrued but not yet collected is separately reported as accrued interest and fees receivable on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Amounts within that caption relating to loans held for investment were $14.3 million and $14.0 million as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020.

During the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Company originated 1 mortgage loan, with a total commitment of $45.4 million, an initial unpaid principal balance of $37.5 million, and unfunded commitment at closing of $7.9 million.

(3) Loans Held for Investment

The Company currently originates and acquires first mortgage and mezzanine loans secured by commercial properties. These loans can potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk as measured by various metrics, including the property type collateralizing the loan, loan size, loans to a single sponsor and loans in a single geographic area, among others. The Company’s loans held for investment are accounted for at amortized cost.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, the Company’s subsidiaries originated or acquired 15 loans with a total commitment of approximately $1.5 billion, an unpaid principal balance of $1.1 billion, and unfunded commitments of $229.7 million. To fund these originations, the Company employed financing methods that included repurchase and secured financings, notes payable, and the non-recourse syndication of seniorCompany’s total loan interests to third parties that were recognized as sales. Total commitments related to non-recourse senior loan interest syndications for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 were $91.5 million.

Weighted Average Risk Rating calculated based on unpaid principal balance at period end.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, two loans were moved from the Company’s category four risk rating, one into its category two risk rating and the other into its category three risk rating, as a result of improved operating performance of the underlying loan collateral. Additionally, the Company moved four loans that were classified in its category three risk rating to category four, resulting from a decline in collateral performance. During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, two loans classified in its category four risk rating and three loans classified in its category one risk rating as of December 31, 2016 were repaid during the ordinary course of business. The weighted average risk rating at both September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 was 2.6.

At September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, there were no loans on non-accrual status or that were impaired; thus, the Company did not record a reserve for loan loss.

See Note 15 for details about the Company’s mortgage loan originations subsequent to September 30, 2017.

The weighted average risk ratings of the Company’s loans remain unchanged at 3.1 as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Company upgraded 1 loan from risk category “3” to “2” because the collateral property achieved lease occupancy at rents in excess of underwriting.


Allowance for Credit Losses

The Company’s reserve developed pursuant to ASC 326 reflects its current estimate of potential credit losses related to its loan portfolio as of March 31, 2021. As part of its allowance for credit losses, the Company maintains a separate allowance for credit losses related to unfunded loan commitments, and this amount is included in accrued expenses and other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. For further information on the policies that govern the estimation of the allowances for credit loss levels, see Note 2.

During the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Company recorded a decrease of $4.0 million in the allowance for credit losses, thus reducing the total CECL reserve to $58.8 million as of March 31, 2021. This decline was primarilydue to expectations of improving macroeconomic conditions and actual improvements in operating results for many collateral properties adversely affected by COVID-19. For the three months ended March 31, 2020, the allowance for credit losses increased to $83.0 million, comprised of $19.6 million in connection with the adoption of ASC 326 on January 1, 2020, and $63.3 million increase in provision due to changes in economic outlook resulting from the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. The average risk ratings of the Company’s loans remain unchanged at 3.1 as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020. The overall economic slowdown due to the COVID-19 pandemic has caused reduced investment sales and financing activity in most sectors of the commercial real estate capital markets, which may moderate the pace of loan repayments and likely impact commercial property values and valuation inputs. While the ultimate impact of these trends remains uncertain, the Company has made certain forward-looking adjustments to the inputs of its calculation of the allowance for credit losses to reflect uncertainty regarding the timing, strength and distribution of the economic recovery, and the post-COVID levels of economic activity that may result.  


NaN loan secured by a retail property was on non-accrual statusas of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 due to a default caused by non-payment of interest in December 2020. The amortized cost of the loan was $31.2 million and $31.1 million as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. In accordance with the Company’s revenue recognition policy on loans placed on non-accrual status, the Company suspended accrual of interest income on this first mortgage loan. At March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company determined that this first mortgage loan met the CECL framework’s criteria for individual assessment. Accordingly, the Company utilized the estimated fair value of the collateral on March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 to estimate a loan loss reserve of $10.0 million, which is included in the CECL reserve. The Company’s estimate of the collateral’s fair market value was determined using a discounted cash flow model and Level 3 inputs, which include estimates of property-specific cash flows over a specific holding period, a discount rate of 12.5%, and a terminal capitalization rate of 7.5%. These inputs are based on the location, type and nature of the property, current and anticipated market conditions, and management’s knowledge, experience, and judgment. With the passage of time and continuation of the COVID-19 pandemic, certain borrowers may fail to pay interest which may result in additional loans being placed on non-accrual status during later periods.

During the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Company executed 5 loan modifications with borrowers. As of March 31, 2021, these loans had an aggregate commitment amount of $397.7 million and an aggregate unpaid principal balance of $393.5 million. None of these loan modifications trigger the requirements for accounting as TDRs. The Company’s loan modifications typically temporarily reduce the amount of cash interest collected, permit the accrual of a portion (typically not more than 50%) of the interest due, to be repaid at a later date by the borrower, and/or permit the use of existing reserves to pay interest and other property-level expenses, as well as providing accommodations on conditions for extension, such as waiving debt yield tests, and/or modifying the conditions upon which the underlying borrower may extend the maturity date. In exchange, borrowers and sponsors have made partial principal repayments and/or provided additional cash for payment of interest, operating expenses, and replenishment of interest reserves or capital reserves in amounts and combinations acceptable to the Company. All of the modified loans are performing as of March 31, 2021. As of March 31, 2021, the aggregate number of modified loans outstanding was 11 with an unpaid principal balance of $943.5 million. Total PIK interest of $0.8 million on two loans was deferred and added to the outstanding loan principal during the three months ended March 31, 2021. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Company collected 99.4% of interest collections, including PIK interest of 1.2%, compared to 96.7% of interest collections, including PIK interest of 1.7% during the three months ended December 31, 2020. The Company collected 99.1% of interest collections during the three months ended March 31, 2020. The Company did 0t defer any PIK interest during the three months ended March 31, 2020. The following table presents the activity in the PIK balance during the three months ended March 31, 2021 (dollars in thousands):

At December 31, 2020, all loans were current.


(4) Real Estate Owned

In December 2020, the Company acquired 2 undeveloped commercially-zoned land parcels on the Las Vegas Strip comprising 27 acres (the “Property”) pursuant to a negotiated deed-in-lieu of foreclosure. At September 30, 2020, this property served as collateral for a first mortgage loan receivable held for investment with an unpaid principal balance of $112.0 million, an independently-assessed credit loss reserve of $12.8 million, and a net carrying value of $99.2 million. On October 9, 2020, the first mortgage loan reached final maturity without repayment or satisfaction of extension conditions, which triggered a maturity default. On December 31, 2020, the Company took ownership of the Property, extinguished the first mortgage loan receivable, and realized a loss of $12.8 million, equal to the previously recorded specific CECL reserve on the first mortgage loan. At March 31, 2021, the Company continued to hold the Property at its estimated fair value at the time of acquisition, net of estimated selling costs, of $99.2 million. The Company’s estimate of the Property’s fair value was determined using a discounted cash flow model and Level 3 inputs, which include estimates of parcel-specific cash flows over a specific holding period, at a discount rate that ranges between 8.0% - 17.5% based on the risk profile of estimated cash flows associated with each respective parcel, and an estimated capitalization rate of 6.25%, where applicable. These inputs are based on the highest and best use for each parcel, estimated future values for the parcels based on extensive discussions with local brokers, investors and other market participants, the estimated holding period for the parcels, and discount rates that reflect estimated investor return requirements for the risks associated with the expected use of each sub-parcel. The Company obtained from a third party a $50.0 million non-recourse first mortgage loan secured by the Property, which is classified as Mortgage Loan Payable on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. See Note 7 for details of the Mortgage Loan Payable.

For the three months ended March 31, 2021, operating revenues from the REO asset were sufficient to cover the operating expenses and were immaterial to the financial results of the Company.

(5) Available-for-Sale Debt Securities

As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company did 0t own any CRE debt securities. The Company did 0t acquire any CRE debt securities during the three months ended March 31, 2021.

During the three months ended March 31, 2020, the Company sold 11 of its CRE CLO investments for total net proceeds of $151.6 million, recognizing a loss on sale of $36.2 million in Securities Impairments on the consolidated statements of income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss).

During the quarter ended March 31, 2020, all but one of the Company’s CRE debt securities portfolio was pledged as collateral under daily mark-to-market secured credit facilities. Fluctuations in the value of the Company’s CRE debt securities portfolio resulted in the Company being required to post cash collateral with the Company’s lenders under these facilities. To mitigate the impact to the Company’s business from these developments, the Company decided to sell substantially all of the Company’s CRE debt securities portfolio. Accordingly, at March 31, 2020, the Company determined it no longer had the intent and ability to retain its investment portfolio of CRE debt securities, wrote down the entire portfolio to its estimated fair value (on securities where amortized cost basis exceeded fair value), and recorded an impairment charge of $167.3 million, which is recognized as expense in Securities Impairments on the consolidated statements of income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss). During the three months ended March 31, 2020, the Company recorded a total loss of $203.5 million recognized as expense in Securities Impairments on the consolidated statements of income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss), offset by a small realized gain.

(6) Variable Interest Entities and Collateralized Loan Obligations

Subsidiaries of the Company have outstanding at March 31, 2020 3 collateralized loan obligations to finance approximately $3.2 billion or 69.0% of the Company’s loan investment portfolio, measured by unpaid principal balance.

On March 31, 2021 (the “FL4 Closing Date”), TPG RE Finance Trust CLO Sub-REIT (“Sub-REIT”), a subsidiary of the Company, entered into a collateralized loan obligation (“TRTX 2021-FL4” or “FL4”) through its wholly-owned subsidiaries TRTX 2021-FL4 Issuer, Ltd., an exempted company incorporated in the Cayman Islands with limited liability, as issuer (the “FL4 Issuer”), and TRTX 2021-FL4 Co-Issuer, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, as co-issuer (the “FL4 Co-Issuer” and together with the FL4 Issuer, the “FL4 Issuers”). On the FL4 Closing Date, FL4 Issuer issued $1.25 billion principal amount of notes (the “FL4 Notes”). The FL4 Co-Issuer co-issued $1.04 billion principal amount of investment grade-rated notes which were purchased by third party investors. Concurrently with the issuance of the FL4 Notes, the FL4 Issuer also issued 112,500 preferred shares, par value $0.001 per share and with an aggregate liquidation preference and notional amount equal to $1,000 per share (the “FL4 Preferred Shares” and, together with the FL4 Notes, the “FL4 Securities”), to TRTX Master Retention Holder, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“FL4 Retention Holder”).


Proceeds from the issuance of the FL4 Securities were used to (i) purchase 1 commercial real estate whole loan (the “FL4 Closing Date Whole Loan”) and 17 pari passu participations in 17 separate commercial real estate whole loans (the “FL4 Closing Date Pari Passu Participations” and, together with the FL4 Closing Date Whole Loan, the “FL4 Closing Date Collateral Interests”), (ii) fund an account (the “FL4 Ramp-Up Account”) in an amount of approximately $308.9 million to be used to purchase eligible collateral interests during a ramp-up period of approximately six months following the Closing Date (the “FL4 Ramp-Up Collateral Interests,” and, together with the FL4 Whole Loans, the “FL4 Initial Collateral Interests”) and (iii) to distribute to the Company $104.8 million of cash for investment or other corporate uses. The FL4 Closing Date Collateral Interests were purchased by the FL4 Issuer from the FL4 Seller, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and an affiliate of the FL4 Issuers.

The FL4 Ramp-Up Account represents cash held at the trustee and is included in Collateralized Loan Obligation Proceeds Held at Trustee on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. The FL4 Ramp-Up Account is available to purchase eligible collateral interests from the Company during the six-month ramp-up period. In the event the FL4 Ramp-Up Account is not fully utilized within six months of the FL4 Closing Date, amounts up to and including $5.0 million shall be deposited into the FL4 reinvestment account. Any amounts in excess of $5.0 million shall be applied to retire FL4 bonds payable on the first payment date after the ramp-up period in accordance with the priority of payments.

TRTX 2021-FL4 permits the Company, during the 24 months after closing, to contribute eligible new loans or participation interests (the “FL4 Additional Interests”) in loans to TRTX 2021-FL4 in exchange for cash, which provides additional liquidity to the Company to originate new loan investments as underlying loans repay. FL4 Closing Date Collateral Interests represented 20.5% of the aggregate unpaid principal balance of the Company’s loan investment portfolio and had an aggregate principal balance of approximately $0.9 billion as of March 31, 2021, and $308.9 million in the FL4 Ramp-Up Account to be used for purchase of certain other collateral interests during the ramp-up period.

In connection with TRTX 2021-FL4, the Company incurred $8.3 million of issuance costs which are amortized on an effective yield basis over the expected life of the investment-grade notes issued based upon the expected repayment behavior of the loans collateralizing the notes after giving effect to the reinvestment period, both as of the FL4 Closing Date. As of March 31, 2021, the Company’s unamortized issuance costs related to TRTX 2021-FL4 were $8.3 million.

Interest expense on the outstanding FL4 Notes is payable monthly. For the three months ended March 31, 2021, interest expense on the outstanding FL4 Notes (excluding amortization of deferred financing costs) of $0.04 million is included in the Company’s consolidated statements of income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss).

On October 25, 2019 (the “FL3 Closing Date”), Sub-REIT entered into a collateralized loan obligation (“TRTX 2019-FL3” or “FL3”). TRTX 2019-FL3 provides for reinvestment, during the 24 months after closing of FL3, whereby eligible new loans or participation interests (the “FL3 Additional Interests”) in loans may be contributed to TRTX 2019-FL3 in exchange for cash, which provides liquidity to the Company to originate new loan investments as underlying loans repay.

For the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Company did not utilize the reinvestment feature. For the three months ended March 31, 2020, the Company utilized the reinvestment feature four times, contributing $157.3 million of new loans or participating interests in loans, and receiving $47.3 million of cash, after the repayment of $110.0 million of existing borrowings, including accrued interest.

As of March 31, 2021 FL3 Mortgage Assets represented 26.8% of the aggregate unpaid principal balance of the Company’s loan investment portfolio and had an aggregate principal balance of approximately $1.2 billion.

At March 31, 2021, TRTX 2019-FL3 had $1.2 million of cash available to acquire eligible assets which is included in Collateralized Loan Obligation Proceeds Held at Trustee on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.

In connection with TRTX 2019-FL3, the Company incurred $7.8 million of issuance costs which are amortized on an effective yield basis over the expected life of the investment-grade notes issued based upon the expected repayment behavior of the loans collateralizing the notes after giving effect to the reinvestment period, both as of the FL3 Closing Date. As of March 31, 2021, the Company’s unamortized issuance costs related to TRTX 2019-FL3 were $4.5 million.

Interest expense on the outstanding FL3 Notes is payable monthly. For the three months ended March 31, 2021, interest expense on the outstanding FL3 Notes (excluding amortization of deferred financing costs) of $3.8 millionis included in the Company’s consolidated statements of income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss).

On November 29, 2018 (the “FL2 Closing Date”), Sub-REIT entered into a collateralized loan obligation (“TRTX 2018-FL2” or “FL2”). TRTX 2018-FL2 provides for reinvestment, during the 24 months after closing of FL2, whereby eligible new loans or


participation interests in loans may be contributed to TRTX 2018-FL2 in exchange for cash, which provided additional liquidity to the Company to originate new loan investments as underlying loans repay. The reinvestment period for TRTX 2018-FL2 ended on December 11, 2020. At March 31, 2021, TRTX 2018-FL2 had 0 cash available to acquire eligible assets. For the three months ended March 31, 2020, the Company utilized the reinvestment feature three times, contributing $74.3 million of new loans or participation interests in loans, and receiving net cash proceeds of $45.1 million, after the repayment of $29.2 million of existing borrowings, including accrued interest.

As of March 31, 2021, FL2 Mortgage Assets represented 21.7% of the aggregate unpaid principal balance of the Company’s loan investment portfolio and had an aggregate principal balance of approximately $1.0 billion.

In connection with TRTX 2018-FL2, the Company incurred $8.7 million of issuance costs which are amortized on an effective yield basis over the expected life of the investment-grade notes (the “FL2 Notes”) issued based upon the expected repayment behavior of the loans collateralizing the notes and the reinvestment period, both as of the FL2 Closing Date. As of March 31, 2021, the Company’s unamortized issuance costs related to TRTX 2018-FL2 were $3.2 million.

Interest expense on the outstanding FL2 Notes is payable monthly. For the three months ended March 31, 2021, interest expense on the outstanding FL2 Notes (excluding amortization of deferred financing costs) of $3.1 million is included in the Company’s consolidated statements of income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss).

In accordance with ASC 810, the Company evaluated the key attributes of the issuers of the FL4 Notes (the “FL4 Issuers”), FL3 Notes (the “FL3 Issuers”) and the issuers of the FL2 Notes (the “FL2 Issuers”) to determine if they were VIEs and, if so, whether the Company was the primary beneficiary of their operating activities. This analysis caused the Company to conclude that the FL4 Issuers, FL3 Issuers and the FL2 Issuers were VIEs and that the Company was the primary beneficiary. The Company is the primary beneficiary because it has the ability to control the most significant activities of the FL4 Issuers, FL3 Issuers and the FL2 Issuers, the obligation to absorb losses to the extent of its equity investments, and the right to receive benefits, that could potentially be significant to these entities. Accordingly, the Company consolidates the FL4 Issuers, FL3 Issuers and the FL2 Issuers.

The Company’s total assets and total liabilities as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 included the following VIE assets and liabilities of TRTX 2021-FL4, TRTX 2019-FL3 and TRTX 2018-FL2 (dollars in thousands):

(5) Variable Interest Entities and Collateralized (2)

Loan Obligation

On December 18, 2014, the Company entered into a collateralized loan obligation through TPG RE Finance Trust CLO Issuer, L.P., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“CLO Issuer”) and on December 29, 2014, the Company acquired from German American Capital Corporation (“GACC”) a portfolio of 75% participation interests in certain loans secured primarily by first mortgages on commercial properties, with a face value of approximately $2.4 billion. To partially fund the investment, on December 18, 2014, the CLO Issuer issued a Class A Note securedterm represents weighted-average final maturity, assuming extension options are exercised by the Company’s 75% participation interests in the portfolioborrower. Repayments of loans acquired.CLO notes are dependent on timing of related collateral loan asset repayments post-reinvestment period. The Company evaluated in accordance with ASC 810, the key attributesterm of the CLO Issuer to determine if it was a VIE and, if so, whethernotes represents the Company was the primary beneficiary of the CLO Issuer’s operating activities. This analysis resulted in the Company concluding that the CLO Issuer was a VIE, that the Company was the primary beneficiary, and that it would consolidate the entity.rated final distribution date.

The CLO Issuer invested in real estate-related loans which were substantially financed by the issuance of debt securities. The  Manager was named collateral manager (“CLO Collateral Manager”) for all of the CLO Issuer’s collateral assets. The CLO Collateral Manager was responsible for the activities that most significantly impacted the performance of the underlying assets, including but not limited to monitoring, managing and disposing of collateral assets and managing the CLO Issuer’s compliance with provisions of the CLO indenture. The Company’s involvement with the CLO Issuer primarily affected its financial performance and operating cash flows through amounts recorded to interest income, interest expense and provision for loan losses.

The Company consolidated the CLO Issuer because ultimately it had the ability to control the activities that most significantly impacted the economic performance of the entity through its contractual rights with the affiliated CLO Collateral Manager. The CLO Collateral Manager had a contractual duty to the CLO Issuer, which in turn benefited the Company as the owner of 100% of the equity in the CLO Issuer. Additionally, the Company had exposure to the CLO Issuer’s losses to the extent of its equity interests and also had rights to waterfall payments in excess of required payments to the CLO Issuer’s Class A Note holder which would both be significant to the CLO Issuer. At each reporting date, the Company reconsidered its primary beneficiary conclusion to determine if its obligation to absorb losses of, or its rights to receive benefits from, the CLO Issuer could potentially be more than insignificant and if it should consolidate the CLO Issuer.

On August 16, 2017, the outstanding principal balance of the Class A Note issued by the CLO Issuer was approximately $118.0 million. On August 16, 2017, the CLO Issuer sold to GACC two first mortgage loan participation interests with an aggregate unpaid principal balance of $12.8 million that collateralized the Class A Note in part and recognized in Other income, net a $0.2 million loss on sale. The sales price of the two first mortgage loans was approximately par value. These loans were sold because they were determined to no longer be consistent with the Company’s current investment strategy.


On August 18, 2017, one of the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiaries purchased from the CLO Issuer seven first mortgage loan participation interests with an aggregate unpaid principal balance of $138.5 million that collateralized the remainder of the Class A Note issued by the CLO Issuer. The first mortgage loan participation interests were sold by the CLO Issuer for approximately par value. On August 23, 2017, proceeds from both transactions were used in combination with approximately $3.0 million of Company cash to retire all amounts outstanding under the Class A Note issued by the CLO Issuer, which totaled $118.0 million. The collateralized loan obligation was subsequently terminated.

The Company incurred approximately $13.2 million of issuance costs which were amortized on an effective yield basis over the shorter of the remaining life of the loans that collateralized the Class A Note, or the Class A Note. As a result of retiring all amounts outstanding under the Class A Note, the Company recognized an additional $0.9 million of issuance costs during the three months ended September 30, 2017. As of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Company’s unamortized issuance costs were $0.0 million and $2.5 million, respectively.

Interest on the Class A Note was payable monthly, beginning on December 18, 2014, and for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, interest expense (excluding amortization of deferred financing costs) of $9.3 million and $21.8 million, respectively, is included in the Company’s consolidated statements of income as interest expense.

(6) Notes Payable, Repurchase Agreements, Senior Secured Credit Facility and Subscription Secured Facility

At September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Company had notes payable and repurchase agreements for certain of the Company’s originated loans. In addition, at December 31, 2016, the Company had a subscription secured credit facility outstanding, which facility was terminated in July 2017. On September 29, 2017, the Company entered into a new senior secured credit facility agreement with Bank of America. These financing agreements bear interest at a rate equal to LIBOR plus a credit spread determined primarily by advance rate and property type, or in the case of the subscription secured facility before it was terminated, the creditworthiness of the irrevocable investor commitments that secured the facility. The agreements contain covenants that include certain financial requirements, including maintenance of minimum liquidity, minimum tangible net worth, maximum debt to net worth ratio, current ratio and limitations on capital expenditures, indebtedness, distributions, transactions with affiliates and maintenance of positive net income as defined in the agreements.


The following table presents certain information regarding the Company’s notes payable, repurchase agreements, senior secured credit facility, and subscription secured facility as of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively.

(7) Secured Credit Agreements and Mortgage Loan Payable

At March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company had secured credit facilities and a mortgage loan payable, all of which were used to finance certain of the Company’s loan investments. These financing arrangements bear interest at rates equal to LIBOR plus a credit spread negotiated between the Company and each lender, often a separate credit spread for each pledge of collateral, which is primarily based on property type and advance rate against the unpaid principal balance of the pledged loan. Except for the mortgage loan payable, these borrowing arrangements contain defined mark-to-market provisions that permit our lenders to issue margin calls to the Company in the event that the collateral properties underlying the Company’s loans pledged to the Company’s lenders experience a non-temporary decline in value (“credit marks”) due to reasons other than capital markets events that result in changing credit spreads for similar borrowing obligations. In connection with one of these borrowing arrangements, the lender is also permitted to issue margin calls to the Company in the event the lender determines capital markets events have caused credit spreads to change for similar borrowing obligations (“spread marks”).


The following table presents certain information regarding the Company’s secured credit agreements as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020. Except as otherwise noted, all agreements are on a partial recourse basis (dollars in thousands):

Notes Payable

As of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Company had seven and four note-on-note financing agreements, respectively, to finance certain of its lending activities. These loans allow for additional advances up to a specified cap and are secured by seven and four loans held for investment, respectively. The Company’s note-on-note agreements have the following guarantees:

(1)

Deutsche Bank and Bank of the Ozarks: Holdco has provided funding guarantees under which Holdco guarantees the funding obligations of the special purpose lending entity in limited circumstances. In addition, under the Deutsche Bank and Bank of the Ozarks asset-specific financings, Holdco has delivered limited non-recourse carve-out guarantees in favor of the lenders as additional credit support for the financings. These guarantees trigger recourse to Holdco as a result of certain “bad boy” defaults for actual losses incurred by such party, or the entire outstanding obligations of the financing borrower, depending on the nature of the “bad boy” default in question; and

(2)

BMO Harris: Holdco has delivered a payment guarantee in favor of the lender as additional credit support for the financing. The liability of Holdco under this guarantee is generally capped at 25% of the outstanding obligations of the special purpose subsidiary which is the primary obligor under the financing. In addition, Holdco has delivered a non-recourse carveout guarantee, which can trigger recourse to Holdco as a result of certain “bad boy” defaults for losses incurred by BMO Harris or the entire outstanding obligations of the financing borrower, depending on the nature of the “bad boy” default in question.


All loans at September 30, 2017 are guaranteed by Holdco, and the agreements include guarantor covenants regarding liquid assets and net worth requirements. The Company believes it is in compliance with all covenants as of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016. One of these loans at September 30, 2017 is 25% recourse to Holdco.

Repurchase Agreements

The Company frequently utilizes repurchase agreements to finance the direct origination or acquisition of commercial real estate mortgage loans and CMBS. Under these repurchase agreements, the Company transfers all of its rights, title and interest in the loans or CMBS to the repurchase counterparty in exchange for cash, and simultaneously agrees to reacquire the asset at a future date for an amount equal to the cash exchanged plus an interest factor. The repurchase counterparty collects all principal and interest on related loans or CMBS and remits to the Company only the net after collecting its interest and other fees.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and the year ended December 31, 2016, the Company entered into one and two additional repurchase agreements, respectively, to finance its lending activities. Credit spreads vary depending on property type and advance rate. Assets pledged are mortgage loans collateralized by commercial properties. These facilities are 25% recourse to Holdco.

On July 21, 2017, the Company closed an amendment to its existing secured revolving repurchase facility with Morgan Stanley Bank, N.A. to increase the maximum facility amount to $400 million from $250 million. Additionally, the Company has the right to further upsize the facility to $500 million from $400 million upon at least five days’ notice, subject to customary conditions. The facility was also amended to provide for an extended maturity in May 2020 and can be extended by the Company for additional successive one year periods, subject to approval by the lender. As was the case prior to the amendment, the number of extension options is not limited by the terms of this facility.

On August 18, 2017, and in connection with the repayment of the Class A Note and the termination of the collateralized loan obligation, the Company closed an amendment to its existing secured revolving repurchase facility with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. to increase the maximum facility amount by $103.5 million, to $417.3 million, and to include as pledged collateral under the facility the seven first mortgage loan participation interests purchased from the CLO Issuer by one of our wholly-owned subsidiaries on August 18, 2017. With respect only to the upsize amount, amounts borrowed may not be repaid and reborrowed. All other material terms of the credit facility remain unchanged.

At September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Company had two securities repurchase agreements to finance its CMBS investing activities. Credit spreads vary depending upon the CMBS and advance rate. Assets pledged at September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 consisted of three and three mortgage-backed securities, respectively. These facilities are 100% recourse to Holdco. The agreements include various covenants covering net worth, liquidity, recourse limitations, and debt coverage. The Company believes it is in compliance with all covenants as of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016.

The following table summarizes certain characteristics of the Company’s repurchase agreements secured by commercial mortgage loans, all of which are considered long-term borrowings, and comprise counterparty concentration risks, at September 30, 2017 (in thousands):

The current extended maturity of this facility is September 2022.

Subscription Secured Facility

On January 6, 2016, the Company entered into a subscription secured revolving credit facility with a commitment of $250 million. Borrowing ability is limited to the lesser of $250 million and 66.67% of unfunded commitments from included investors as defined in the agreement. The credit facility term is two years with a one year extension option at a rate of LIBOR plus 1.75%.

(8) Fair Value Measurements

The Company’s consolidated balance sheet includes Level I fair value measurements related to cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, and accounts payable and accrued liabilities. At September 30, 2017, the Company had $58.9 million invested in money market funds with original maturities of less than 90 days. The carrying values of these financial assets and liabilities are reasonable estimates of fair value because of the short-term maturities of these instruments. The consolidated balance sheet also includes Loans Held for Investment, a collateralized loan obligation, and secured financing arrangements that are considered Level III fair value measurements that are not measured at fair value on a recurring basis, but are subject to fair value adjustments utilizing the fair value of the underlying collateral when there is evidenceProperty at the time of impairment. The Company did not have any nonrecurring fair value itemsacquisition as of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016.

The following tables provide information about financial assets and liabilities not carried at fair value on a recurring basisdescribed in our consolidated balance sheet (dollars in thousands):Note 4.

The Company extended its existing secured facility with Morgan Stanley on May 3, 2021 to a new initial maturity date of May 4, 2022.

The Company’s secured credit facilities contain defined mark-to-market provisions that permit the lenders to issue margin calls in the event that the collateral properties underlying the Company’s loans pledged to its lenders experience a non-temporary decline in value or net cash flow (“credit marks”) due to reasons other than capital markets events that result in changing credit spreads for similar borrowing obligations. In connection with one of these borrowing arrangements, the lender is also permitted to issue margin calls to the Company in the event the lender determines capital markets events have caused credit spreads to change for similar borrowing obligations (“spread marks”). Furthermore, in connection with one of these borrowing arrangements, the lender has the right to re-margin the secured credit facility based solely on appraised loan-to-values in the third year of the facility. The following table presents the recourse and mark-to-market provisions for the Company’s secured credit agreements as of March 31, 2021:

The Company extended its existing secured credit facility with Morgan Stanley on May 3, 2021 to a new initial maturity date of May 4, 2022.

Secured Credit Facilities

At March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company had 7 secured credit facilities to finance its loan investing activities. Credit spreads vary depending upon the collateral type, advance rate and other factors. Assets pledged at March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 consisted of 37 and 55 mortgage loans, or participation interests therein, respectively. Under these secured credit agreements, the Company transfers all of its rights, title and interest in the loans to the repurchase counterparty in exchange for cash, and simultaneously agrees to reacquire the asset at a future date for an amount equal to the cash exchanged plus an interest factor. The repurchase counterparty (lender) collects all principal and interest on related loans and remits to the Company the net amount after the lender collects its interest and other fees. For the seventh credit facility, which is a mortgage warehouse facility, the lender receives a security interest (pledge) in the loans financed under the arrangement. The secured credit facilities used to finance loan investments are 25% recourse to Holdco.

Under each of the Company’s secured credit facilities, including the mortgage warehouse facility, the Company is required to post margin for changes in conditions to specific loans that serve as collateral for those secured credit facilities. The lender’s margin amount is in all but one instance limited to collateral-specific credit marks based on other-than-temporary declines in the value of the properties securing the underlying loan collateral. Market value determinations and redeterminations may be made by the repurchase lender in its sole discretion subject to certain specified parameters. In the case of assets that serve as collateral under the Company’s secured credit facilities secured by loans, these considerations include credit-based factors (which are generally based on factors other than those related to the capital markets). In only one instance do the considerations include changes in observable credit spreads in the market for these assets. These factors are described in the immediately preceding table.


The following table summarizes certain characteristics of the Company’s secured credit agreements secured by commercial mortgage loans, including counterparty concentration risks, at March 31, 2021 (dollars in thousands):

With respect to that portion of the period from and after the date of the pre-IPO Management Agreement that is used in any calculation of the incentive management fee or the management fee, all items in the foregoing sentence (other than clause (i) (B)) are calculated on a daily weighted average basis.

In addition, the Manager is entitled to an incentive management fee each calendar quarter in arrears in an amount, not less than zero, equal to the product of (i) 16% and (ii) the positive sum, if any, remaining after (A) Core Earnings of the Company for such calendar quarter are reduced by (B) the product of (1) the Company’s stockholders’ equity as of the end of such calendar quarter, and (2) 7% per annum; provided, however, that no incentive management fee is payable with respect to any calendar quarter unless Core Earnings for the 12 most recently completed calendar quarters is greater than zero.

For the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, the Company paid an aggregate of $1.1 million and $3.2 million, respectively, to the Manager for management fees and incentive management fees under the pre-IPO Management Agreement and collateral management fees under the collateral management agreement for the CLO. For the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, the Company paid an aggregate of $10.0 million and $9.9 million, respectively, to the Manager for management fees and incentive management fees under the pre-IPO Management Agreement and collateral management fees under the collateral management agreement for the CLO. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, the Company paid an aggregate of $3.4 million to the Manager for management fees and incentive management fees under the Management Agreement and collateral management fees under the collateral management agreement for the CLO.

Expenses incurred by the Manager and reimbursed by the Company, are reflected in the respective consolidated statements of income expense category or the consolidated balance sheets based on the nature of the item. For the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, $1.0 million and $0.1 million were incurred by the Manager and reimbursable by the Company, respectively.


Termination Fee

A termination fee will be payable to the Manager upon termination of the Management Agreement by the Company absent a cause event. The termination fee would also be payable to the Manager upon termination of the Management Agreement by the Manager if the Company materially breaches the Management Agreement. The termination fee is equal to three times the sum of (x) the average annual base management fee and (y) the average annual incentive compensation earned by the Manager, in each case during the 24-month period immediately preceding the most recently completed calendar quarter prior to the date of termination or, if such termination occurs prior to July 25, 2019, and such termination fee is payable, the base management fees and the incentive compensation will be annualized for such two-year period based on such fees actually received by the Manager during such period.

(10) Income Taxes

The Company indirectly owns 100% of the equity of multiple taxable REIT subsidiaries (collectively “TRSs”). TRSs are subject to applicable U.S. federal, state, local and foreign income tax on their taxable income. In addition, as a REIT, the Company also may be subject to a 100% excise tax on certain transactions between it and its TRSs that are not conducted on an arm’s-length basis. The Company files income tax returns in the United States federal jurisdiction as well as various state and local jurisdictions. The filings are subject to normal reviews by tax authorities until the related statute of limitations expires. The years open to examination generally range from 2017 to present.

ASC 740 also prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. ASC 740 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. The Company has analyzed its various federal and state filing positions and believes that its income tax filing positions and deductions are well documented and supported. As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, based on the Company’s evaluation, the Company did 0t have any material uncertain income tax positions.

The Company’s policy is to classify interest and penalties associated with underpayment of U.S. federal and state income taxes, if any, as a component of general and administrative expense on its consolidated statements of income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss). For the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Company did 0t have interest or penalties associated with the underpayment of any income taxes.

The Company owns, through a tax partnership (“Parent LLC”), 100% of the common equity in Sub-REIT, which qualifies as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes and is a separate taxpayer from both the Company and Parent LLC. Parent LLC is owned by the Company both directly and through a TRS. The Company, through Sub-REIT, issues CRE CLO liabilities (“CLOs”) to finance on a non-recourse, non-mark-to-market basis a large proportion of its loan investment portfolio. Due to unusually low LIBOR rates beginning in March 2020 coupled with the benefit of LIBOR floors relating to the various loans and participation interests pledged to Sub-REIT’s CLOs, certain of Sub-REIT‘s CLOs currently generate excess inclusion income (“EII”), which is treated as unrelated business taxable income (“UBTI”). Published IRS guidance requires that Sub-REIT allocate its EII in accordance with its dividends paid. Accordingly, EII generated by Sub-REIT‘s CLOs is allocated to Parent LLC. Pursuant to the Parent LLC operating agreement, any EII allocated from Sub-REIT to Parent LLC is allocated further to the TRS. Consequently, no EII is allocated to the Company and, as a result, the Company’s shareholders will not be allocated any EII or UBTI by the Company. The tax liability borne by the TRS on the EII is at the highest U.S. federal corporate tax rate (currently 21%). This tax liability is included in the consolidated statements of income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss) and balance sheets of the Company.


For the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company incurred 0 federal, state or local tax relating to its TRSs. For the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company recognized $0.9 million and $0.1 million, respectively, of federal, state and local tax expense. At March 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company’s effective tax rate was 2.8% and 0.5%, respectively.

As of December 31, 2020, 0 deferred income tax assets or liabilities were recorded for the operating activities of the Company’s TRSs.

From March 23, 2020 through April 2020, the Company sold all its CRE debt securities with an aggregate face value of $969.8 million, generating gross sales proceeds of $766.4 million. The Company recorded losses from these sales of $203.4 million recognized as expense in Securities Impairments on the consolidated statements of income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss), which are expected to be available to offset any capital gains of the Company in 2020 and, to the extent those capital losses exceed the Company’s capital gains for 2020, such losses would be available to be carried forward to offset capital gains in future years. The Company does not expect these losses to reduce the amount that the Company will be required to distribute under the requirement that the Company distribute to the Company’s stockholders at least 90% of the Company’s REIT taxable income (computed without regard to the deduction for dividends paid and excluding net capital gain) each year in order to continue to qualify as a REIT.

(11) Related Party Transactions

Management Agreement

The Company is externally managed and advised by the Manager pursuant to the terms of a management agreement between the Company and the Manager (as amended, the “Management Agreement”). Pursuant to the Management Agreement, the Company pays the Manager a base management fee equal to the greater of $250,000 per annum ($62,500 per quarter) or 1.50% per annum (0.375% per quarter) of the Company’s “Equity” as defined in the Management Agreement. Proceeds from the issuance of Series B Preferred Stock is included in the Company’s Equity for purposes of determining the base management fee. The base management fee is payable in cash, quarterly in arrears. The Manager is also entitled to incentive compensation which is calculated and payable in cash with respect to each calendar quarter in arrears in an amount, not less than zero, equal to the difference between: (1) the product of (a) 20% and (b) the difference between (i) the Company’s Core Earnings for the most recent 12-month period, including the calendar quarter (or part thereof) for which the calculation of incentive compensation is being made (the “applicable period”), and (ii) the product of (A) the Company’s Equity in the most recent 12-month period, including the applicable period, and (B) 7% per annum; and (2) the sum of any incentive compensation paid to the Manager with respect to the first three calendar quarters of the most recent 12-month period. No incentive compensation is payable to the Manager with respect to any calendar quarter unless Core Earnings for the 12 most recently completed calendar quarters is greater than zero. For purposes of calculating the Manager’s incentive compensation, the Management Agreement, as amended, specifies that equity securities of the Company or any of the Company’s subsidiaries that are entitled to a specified periodic distribution or have other debt characteristics will not constitute equity securities and will not be included in “Equity” for the purpose of calculating incentive compensation. Instead, the aggregate distribution amount that accrues to such equity securities during the calendar quarter of such calculation will be subtracted from Core Earnings, before incentive compensation for purposes of calculating incentive compensation, unless such distribution is otherwise excluded from Core Earnings.

Core Earnings, as defined in the Management Agreement, means the net income (loss) attributable to the holders of the Company’s common stock and Class A common stock and, without duplication, the holders of the Company’s subsidiaries’ equity securities (other than the Company or any of the Company’s subsidiaries), computed in accordance with GAAP, including realized gains and losses not otherwise included in net income (loss), and excluding (i) non-cash equity compensation expense, (ii) the incentive compensation, (iii) depreciation and amortization, (iv) any unrealized gains or losses, including an allowance for credit losses, or other similar non-cash items that are included in net income for the applicable period, regardless of whether such items are included in other comprehensive income or loss or in net income and (v) one-time events pursuant to changes in GAAP and certain material non-cash income or expense items, in each case after discussions between the Manager and the Company’s independent directors and approved by a majority of the Company’s independent directors.

For long as any shares of Series B Preferred Stock remain issued and outstanding, the Manager has agreed to reduce by 50% the base management fee attributable to the inclusion of the Series B Preferred Stock in the Company’s Equity, such that the base management fee rate applicable to the Series B Preferred Stock included in the equity base will equal 0.75% per annum, instead of 1.50% per annum as provided in the Management Agreement.

Termination Fee

A termination fee would be due to the Manager upon termination of the Management Agreement by the Company absent a cause event. The termination fee would also be payable to the Manager upon termination of the Management Agreement by the Manager if the Company materially breaches the Management Agreement. The termination fee is equal to three times the sum of (x) the average annual base management fee and (y) the average annual incentive compensation earned by the Manager, in each case during the 24-month period immediately preceding the most recently completed calendar quarter prior to the date of termination.

Other Related Party Transactions

The Manager or its affiliates is responsible for the expenses related to the personnel of the Manager and its affiliates who provide services to the Company. However, the Company does reimburse the Manager for agreed-upon amounts based upon the Company’s allocable share of the compensation (including, without limitation, annual base salary, bonus, any related withholding taxes and employee benefits) paid to (1) the Manager’s personnel serving as the Company’s chief financial officer based on the percentage of his or her time spent managing the Company’s affairs and (2) other corporate finance, tax, accounting, internal audit, legal risk management, operations, compliance and other non-investment personnel of the Manager or its affiliates who spend all or a portion of their time managing the Company’s affairs, based on the percentage of time devoted by such personnel to the Company’s and the Company’s subsidiaries’ affairs. For the three months ended March 31, 2021 and March 31, 2020, the Manager incurred $0.3 million and $0.3 million, respectively, of expenses that were subject to reimbursement by the Company for services rendered on its behalf by the Manager and its affiliates.

For as long as any shares of Series B Preferred Stock (hereafter defined) remain issued and outstanding, the Manager has agreed that it will not seek reimbursement for reimbursable expenses in excess of the greater of (x) $1.0 million per fiscal year and (y) twenty percent (20%) of the Company’s allocable share of such reimbursable expenses pursuant to the Management Agreement per fiscal year. For the quarter ended March 31, 2021, the Company reimbursed to the Manager $250,000 of reimbursable expenses, and the Manager elected not to seek reimbursement for reimbursable amounts in excess thereof. There can be no assurance that the Manager will not seek reimbursement of such expenses in future quarters. If the product of 20% multiplied by eligible reimbursable expenses is expected to exceed $1.0 million annually, the Manager is obligated to inform and review with the Company’s board of directors, the methodology and rationale for such an increase in advance of the delivery to the Company of a written request for reimbursement reflecting such increase. No such notice has been received by the Company as of March 31, 2021.

The Company is required to pay the Manager or its affiliates for documented costs and expenses incurred with third parties by the Manager or its affiliates on behalf of the Company, subject to the Company’s review and approval of such costs and expenses. The Company’s obligation to pay for costs and expenses incurred on its behalf is not subject to a dollar limitation.


As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, $0.0 million and $0.2 million, respectively, remained outstanding and payable to the Manager or its affiliates for third party expenses that were incurred on behalf of the Company.

All expenses due and payable to the Manager are reflected in the respective expense category of the consolidated statements of income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss) or consolidated balance sheets based on the nature of the item.

(12) Earnings per Share

The Company calculates its basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share using the two-class method for all periods presented, since the unvested restricted shares of its common stock granted to certain current and former employees and affiliates of the Manager qualify as participating securities. These restricted shares have the same rights as the Company’s other shares of common stock and Class A common stock (which Class A shares were converted to common shares in February 2020), including participating in any dividends, and therefore are included in the Company’s basic and diluted earnings per share calculation. For the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, $0.1 million and $0.3 million, respectively, of common stock dividends declared and undistributed net income attributable to common stockholders were allocated to unvested shares of our common stock pursuant to stock grants made under the Company’s Incentive Plan. See Note 14 for details.

In connection with the issuance of Series B Preferred Stock and the Warrants described in Note 13, the Company elected the accreted redemption value method whereby the discount created based on the relative fair value of the Warrants to the fair value of the Series B Preferred Stock and the related issuance costs will be accreted as a non-cash dividend on preferred stock over four years using the effective interest method. Such adjustments are included in Accretion of Discount on Series B Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock on our Consolidated Statements of Changes in Equity and treated similarly to a dividend on preferred stock for GAAP purposes. For the three months ended March 31, 2021, this adjustment totaled $1.5 million.

The computation of diluted earnings per share is based on the weighted average number of participating securities outstanding plus the incremental shares that would be outstanding assuming exercise of warrants issued pursuant to the Company’s issuance of Series B Preferred Stock. The number of incremental shares is calculated utilizing the treasury stock method. For the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Warrants are included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share because the average market price of the Company’s common stock during the three months ended March 31, 2021 was $10.95, which exceeds the strike price of $7.50 per common share for warrants currently outstanding.

The following table sets forth the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per common share based on the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the three months ended March 31, 2021 (in thousands, except share and per share data):

Initial Public Offering

On July 25, 2017, the Company completed an initial public offering of 11 million shares of common stock at a price of $20.00 per share for net proceeds of $200.1 million, after deducting underwriting discounts of $13.2 million and estimated offering expenses payable by us of $6.7 million. On August 17, 2017, the underwriters of the Company’s initial public offering partially exercised their option to purchase up to an additional 1,650,000 shares of common stock. On August 22, 2017, the Company issued and sold, and the underwriters purchased, 650,000 shares of common stock for net proceeds of $12.2 million, after deducting underwriting discounts of $0.8 million. The Company used the net proceeds from the offering to originate commercial mortgage loans consistent with its investment strategy and investment guidelines.

On July 28, 2017, the Company paid GACC $2.0 million related to its contractual deferred purchase price obligation due in the event the Company consummated an initial public offering on or before December 29, 2017.

Stock Dividend

On July 3, 2017, we declared a stock dividend that resulted in the issuance of 9,224,268 shares of our common stock and 230,815 shares of our Class A common stock upon the completion of our initial public offering. The stock dividend was paid on July 25, 2017 to holders of record of our common stock and Class A common stock as of July 3, 2017. All prior periods have been restated to give effect to the impact of these transactions on our common and Class A common stock issued, shares outstanding, per share calculations, and basic and diluted weighted average number of common shares outstanding.

10b5-1 Purchase Plan

The Company entered into an agreement (the “10b5-1 Purchase Plan”) with Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, pursuant to which Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, as our agent, will buy in the open market up to $35.0 million in shares of our common stock in the aggregate during the period beginning on or about August 21, 2017 and ending 12 months thereafter or, if sooner, the date on which all the capital committed to the 10b5-1 Purchase Plan has been exhausted. The 10b5-1 Purchase Plan requires Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC to purchase for us shares of our common stock when the market price per share is below the threshold price specified in the 10b5-1 Purchase Plan which is based on our book value per common share. During the three months ended September 30, 2017, the Company repurchased 0.3 million shares of common stock, at an average price of $19.59 per share, for total consideration (including commissions and related fees) of $6.6 million. At September 30, 2017, the Company’s remaining commitment under the 10b5-1 Purchase Plan is $28.4 million.


Subscriptions

Prior to the completion of the Company’s initial public offering on July 25, 2017, certain of the Company’s pre-IPO investors entered into subscription agreements for specified capital commitments. Unfunded capital commitments as of December 31, 2016 were $181.0 million. In connection with the completion of the Company’s initial public offering, the stockholders agreement between the Company and certain of the Company’s pre-IPO stockholders and all of the obligations of certain of the Company’s pre-IPO stockholders to purchase additional shares of the Company’s common stock and Class A common stock using the undrawn portion of their capital commitments were terminated.

Articles of Amendment and Restatement

On July 19, 2017, the Company filed Articles of Amendment and Restatement with the State Department of Assessments and Taxation of Maryland. The Articles of Amendment and Restatement increased the Company’s authorized common stock to 300,000,000 shares of common stock and 2,500,000 shares of Class A common stock with $0.001 par value per share. Additionally, the Articles of Amendment and Restatement increased our authorized preferred stock to 100,000,000 shares of preferred stock with a $0.001 par value per share. Class A common stock has been issued to, and is owned by, certain individuals or entities affiliated with the Manager, and the sale or conversion to common stock by holders of such Class A common stock is subject to certain restrictions.

As of September 30, 2017, the Company’s authorized common stock consisted of 300,000,000 shares of common stock and 2,500,000 shares of Class A common stock with $0.001 par value per share. As of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Company had total common stock and Class A common stock shares of 61,004,768 and 48,446,028 issued and outstanding, respectively.

Dividends

Prior to the completion of the Company’s initial public offering, dividends were accrued at the time of approval by the Special Actions Committee (the ”Committee”), a standing committee comprised of directors who are employed by TPG Global, LLC or an affiliate thereof. Subsequent to the completion of the Company’s initial public offering, dividends are accrued at the time of approval by the Company’s Board of Directors. Upon the approval of the Committee, or the Company’s Board of Directors, as applicable, dividends are paid first to the holders of the Company’s Series A preferred stock at the rate of 12.5% of the total $0.001 million liquidation preference per annum plus all accumulated and unpaid dividends thereon, and second to the holders of the Company’s common stock and Class A common stock. The Company intends to distribute each year substantially all of its taxable income to its stockholders to comply with the REIT provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

On September 26, 2017, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a dividend for the third quarter of 2017 in the amount of $0.33 per share of common stock and Class A common stock, or $20.1 million in the aggregate, which dividend was payable on October 25, 2017 to holders of record of our common stock and Class A common stock as of October 6, 2017. On September 29, 2016, we declared a dividend associated with the third quarter of 2016 in the amount of $0.41 per share of common stock and Class A common stock, or $17.0 million in the aggregate, which was paid on October 26, 2016.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, common and Class A common stock dividends in the amount of $61.9 million and $48.5 million, respectively, were approved. As of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, $20.1 million and $18.3 million, respectively, remain unpaid and are reflected in dividends payable on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.

Liquidation

Upon liquidation of the Company, subsequent to the redemption of preferred stock, the net assets attributable to all classes of common stock shall be distributed pro rata among the common shareholders in proportion to the number of shares of common stock, regardless of class, held by each such holder.

Other Comprehensive (Loss) Income

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 and September 30, 2016, other comprehensive (loss) income was $(2.6) million and $(1.3) million, respectively, and $1.5 million and $2.6 million, respectively. Other comprehensive (loss) income is a result of unrealized (losses) gains on CMBS available-for-sale.


2017 Equity Incentive Plan

The Company’s Board of Directors has adopted, and its stockholders have approved, the TPG RE Finance Trust, Inc. 2017 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Incentive Plan”). The Incentive Plan provides for the grant of equity-based awards to the Company’s, and its affiliates’, directors, officers, employees (if any) and consultants, and the members, officers, directors, employees and consultants of our Manager or its affiliates, as well as to our Manager and other entities that provide services to us and our affiliates and the employees of such entities. The total number of shares of common stock or long term incentive plan (“LTIP”) units that may be awarded under the Incentive Plan is 4,600,463, or 7.5% of the issued and outstanding shares of our common stock after completion of our common and Class A common stock dividend, initial public offering and the issuance of shares in connection with the partial exercise of the option to purchase additional shares related to the initial public offering. The Incentive Plan will automatically expire on the tenth anniversary of its effective date, unless terminated earlier by the Company’s Board of Directors. No equity grants were awarded in conjunction with the Company’s initial public offering or have otherwise been made under the Incentive Plan.

(13) Stockholders’ Equity

Series B Preferred Stock and Warrants to Purchase Shares of Common Stock

On May 28, 2020, the Company entered into an Investment Agreement (the “Investment Agreement”) with PE Holder L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company (the “Purchaser”), an affiliate of Starwood Capital Group Global II, L.P., under which the Company agreed to issue and sell to the Purchaser up to 13,000,000 shares of 11.0% Series B Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share (plus any additional such shares paid as dividends pursuant to the Articles Supplementary, the “Series B Preferred Stock”), and Warrants to purchase, in the aggregate, up to 15,000,000 shares (subject to adjustment) of the Company’s Common Stock, for an aggregate cash purchase price of up to $325,000,000. Such purchases may occur in up to three tranches. The Investment Agreement contains market standard provisions regarding board representation, voting agreements, rights to information, and a standstill agreement and registration rights agreement regarding common stock acquired via exercise of Warrants.


On May 28, 2020, the Purchaser acquired the initial tranche, consisting of 9,000,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock and Warrants to purchase up to 12,000,000 shares of Common Stock, for an aggregate price of $225.0 million. The Company retained an option to sell to the Purchaser the second and third tranches on or prior to December 31, 2020, provided notice of intent to sell is delivered to the Purchaser not later than December 11, 2020. Each of the second and third tranches consisted of 2,000,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock and Warrants to purchase up to 1,500,000 shares of Common Stock, for an aggregate purchase price of $50.0 million per tranche. The Company allowed the option to issue additional shares of Series B Preferred Stock to expire unused.

Series B Preferred Stock

The Company’s Series B Preferred Stock has a liquidation preference over all other classes of the Company’s equity other than Series A Preferred Stock, which has liquidation preference over the Series B Preferred Stock.

Series B Preferred Stock bears a dividend at 11% per annum, accrued daily and compounded semi-annually, which is payable quarterly in cash; provided that up to 2.0% per annum of the liquidation preference may be paid, at the option of the Company, in the form of additional shares of Series B Preferred Stock.

Warrants to Purchase Common Stock

The Warrants have an initial exercise price of $7.50 per share. The exercise price of the Warrants and shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants are subject to customary adjustments. The Warrants are exercisable on a net settlement basis and expire on May 28, 2025. The Warrants are classified as equity and were initially recorded at their estimated fair value of $14.4 million with no subsequent remeasurement. NaN of the Warrants have been exercised as of March 31, 2021.

On the issuance date, the Company retained third party valuation experts to assist with estimating the fair value of the Series B Preferred Stock and the Warrants using the binomial lattice model. Based on the Warrants’ relative fair value to the fair value of the Series B Preferred Stock, approximately $14.4 million of the $225.0 million proceeds was allocated to the Warrants, creating a corresponding preferred stock discount in the same amount. The Company elected the accreted redemption value method whereby this discount will be accreted over four years using the effective interest method, resulting in an increase in the carrying value of the Series B Preferred Stock. Additionally, $14.2 million of costs directly related to the issuance will be accreted using the effective interest method. Such adjustments are included in Accretion of Discount on Series B Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock on our Consolidated Statements of Changes in Equity and treated similarly to a dividend on preferred stock for GAAP purposes.

Loan commitments represent principal commitments made by the Company, and do not include capitalized interest resulting from certain loan modifications of $5.5 million and $4.7 million at March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.

Impact of COVID-19 on Concentration of Credit Risk

The potential negative impacts on the Company’s business caused by COVID-19 may be heightened by the fact that the Company is not required to observe specific diversification criteria, which means that the Company’s investments may be concentrated in certain property types, geographical areas or loan categories that are more adversely affected by COVID-19 than other property types, geographical areas or loan categories. For example, certain of the loans in the Company’s loan portfolio are secured by office buildings, hotels and retail properties. Federal and state mandates implemented to control the spread of COVID-19, including restrictions on freedom of movement and business operations such as travel bans, border closings, business closures, quarantines and shelter-in-place orders, have and are likely to continue to negatively impact the hotel and retail industries, which could adversely affect the Company’s investments in assets secured by properties that operate in these industries. Also, changes in how certain types of commercial properties are used while maintaining social distancing and other techniques intended to control the impact of COVID-19 (for example, office buildings may be adversely impacted by a possible reversal in the recent trend toward increased densification of office space, or a preference by office users for suburban properties less reliant on public transportation to safely deliver their employees to and from the workplace) have and are likely to impact our investments secured by these properties. Additional regional surges in infection rates due to COVID-19 variants, reversed re-openings, uncertainty regarding the effectiveness of vaccines approved for COVID-19, or high proportions of vaccine hesitancy in certain regions, could adversely affect the Company’s loan investments secured by properties in these regions so impacted.

(17) Subsequent Events

The following events occurred subsequent to September 30, 2017:March 31, 2021:

The Company closed 1 first mortgage loan with a total loan commitment amount of $47.0 million and initial funding of $45.9 million. This loan was financed in TRTX 2021-FL4, and together with the contribution in April 2021 of a $37.5 million loan, the Company has utilized $83.4 million of the FL4 Ramp-Up Account.

The Company is in the process of closing 7 first mortgage loans with a total loan commitment amount of $588.7 million and initial fundings of $464.5 million. The majority of these loans, measured by commitment amount, are expected to be financed in TRTX 2021-FL4.

Cash Dividend

On October 25, 2017, the Company paid a cash dividend on its common stock, to stockholders of record as of October 6, 2017, of $0.33 per share, or $20.1 million.

10b5-1 Purchase Plan

From September 30, 2017 through November 3, 2017, the Company repurchased 0.2 million shares of common stock under the 10b5-1 Purchase Plan, at an average price of $19.60 per share for total consideration (including commissions and related fees) of $3.4 million.

Senior Mortgage Loan Originations

From September 30, 2017 through November 6, 2017, the Company originated three first mortgage loans, representing loans closed and in the process of closing, with an aggregate commitment amount of $294 million. These loans were funded, or will be funded upon closing, with a combination of cash-on-hand and borrowings.  

The Company has evaluated subsequent events through November 6, 2017, the date which the consolidated financial statements were available to be issued.

Overview

We are a commercial real estate finance company externally managed by TPG RE Finance Trust Management, L.P. and sponsored by TPG. We directly originate, acquire and manage commercial mortgage loans and other commercial real estate-related debt instruments in North America for our balance sheet. Our objective is to provide attractive risk-adjusted returns to our stockholders over time through cash distributions and capital appreciation. To meet our objective, we focus primarily on directly originating and selectively acquiring floating rate first mortgage loans that are secured by high quality commercial real estate properties undergoing some form of transition and value creation, such as retenanting, refurbishment or other form of repositioning. The collateral underlying our loans is located in primary and select secondary markets in the U.S. that we believe have attractive economic conditions and commercial real estate fundamentals. As of September 30, 2017, approximately 67.7% ofWe operate our loans (measured by commitment) were secured by properties located in the ten largest U.S. metropolitan areas, and approximately 80.9% of our loans (measured by commitment) were secured by properties located in the 25 largest U.S. metropolitan areas.business as one segment.

As of September 30, 2017,March 31, 2021, our loan investment portfolio consisted of 5157 first mortgage loans (or interests therein) and one mezzanine loan with total loan commitments of $5.0 billion, an aggregate unpaid principal balance of $2.8$4.6 billion, and four mezzanine loans with an aggregate unpaid principal balance of $67.1 million, and collectively having a weighted average credit spread of 4.9%3.2%, a weighted average all-in yield of 6.4%5.2%, a weighted average term to extended maturity (assuming all extension options have been exercised by borrowers) of 3.52.9 years, and a weighted average LTV of 59.2%65.9%. As of September 30, 2017, 99.0%March 31, 2021, 100% of the loan commitments in our portfolio consisted of floating rate loans, and 97.8% of the loan commitments in our portfolio consisted ofwhich 99.3% were first mortgage loans (or interests therein). We alsoor, in one instance a first mortgage loan and contiguous mezzanine loan both owned by us, and 0.7% was a mezzanine loan. As of March 31, 2021, we had $581.6$401.7 million of unfunded loan commitments, as of September 30, 2017, our funding of which is subject to borrower satisfaction of borrowercertain milestones. In addition, as

As of September 30, 2017,March 31, 2021, we had $99.2 million of real estate owned comprising 27 acres across two undeveloped commercially-zoned land parcels on the Las Vegas Strip (the “Property”) acquired pursuant to a negotiated deed-in-lieu of foreclosure. This Property is held five CMBS investments, with an aggregate face amountfor investment and reflected on our consolidated balance sheets at its estimate of $85.9 million and a weighted average yield to final maturityfair value at the time of 3.2%.acquisition.

We operate our business as one segment which directly originates and acquires commercial mortgage loans and other commercial real estate-related debt instruments. We have made an election to be taxed as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes, commencing with our initial taxable year ended December 31, 2014. We believe we have been organized and have operated in conformity with the requirements for qualification and taxation as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and we believe that our organization and current organization and intended manner of operation will enable us to continue to meet the requirements for qualification and taxation as a REIT. As a REIT, we generally are not subject to U.S. federal income tax on our REIT taxable income that we distribute currently to our stockholders. We operate our business in a manner that permits us to maintain an exclusion or exemption from registration under the Investment Company Act.

During 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic caused significant disruptions to the U.S. and global economies. These disruptions contributed to significant and ongoing volatility, widening credit spreads and sharp declines in liquidity in the real estate securities and whole loan financing markets at points during 2020. The pace of recovery following this disruption remains uncertain, as do the longer-term economic effects and shifts in behavior. As a result of the impact of COVID-19, many commercial real estate finance and financial services industry participants, including us, reduced new investment activity until the capital markets became more stable, the macroeconomic outlook became clearer, market liquidity improved, and transaction volumes increased. For most of 2020, we focused on actively managing portfolio credit, generating and recycling liquidity from existing assets, extending the maturities and further reducing the mark-to-market exposure of our liabilities and controlling corporate overhead as a percentage of our total assets and total revenues. Although market conditions remain uncertain due to COVID-19, the credit performance of our portfolio, loan repayments that have allowed us to retire certain borrowings and increase our liquidity, extended maturity dates for many of our secured credit agreements, the introduction of a new secured credit agreement limiting mark-to-market risk relating to hotel loans in our portfolio, and the increase in non-mark-to-market liabilities to 84% of total borrowings have positioned us to resume the origination of first mortgage transitional loans in the first quarter of 2021. For more information regarding the impact that COVID-19 has had and may have on our business, see risk factors set forth in our Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 24, 2021.

Funded $30.4 million in future funding obligations associated with existing loans.

Received partial loan repayments of $5.3 million on four loans, and no repayments in full.

Financing Activity:

Closed TRTX 2021-FL4, a $1.25 billion collateralized loan obligation to finance 18 first mortgage loan investments comprised of 17 pari passu participation interests and purchase of one commercial real estate loan, and providing $308.9 million of cash capacity to finance new eligible loans, with a weighted average spread of 1.60% and an advance rate of 83.0%.

Increased non-mark-to-market, non-recourse financing to 83.6% of our total loan financing outstanding balances.

Repaid $615.0 million in secured financing in association with the closing of TRTX 2021-FL4.

Liquidity:

Available liquidity at March 31, 2021 of $632.9 million was comprised of:

Cash-on-hand of $301.6 million, of which $290.8 million was available for investment, net of $10.8 million held to satisfy a cash liquidity covenant under our secured credit agreements.

$308.9 million of cash in the TRTX 2021-FL4 Ramp-Up Account, and $1.2 million of cash in TRTX 2019-FL3, all available for investment dependent upon our ability to contribute eligible collateral.

Undrawn capacity (liquidity available to us without the need to pledge additional collateral to our lenders) of $21.2 million under secured agreements with seven lenders.  


Financing capacity for our secured credit agreements at March 31, 2021 was comprised of $3.2 billion of loan financing capacity under secured credit agreements provided by seven lenders. Our ability to draw on this capacity is dependent upon our lenders’ willingness to accept as collateral loan investments we pledge to them to secure additional borrowings. These financing arrangements have credit spreads based upon the LTV and other risk characteristics of collateral pledged, and provide stable financing with mark-to-market provisions generally limited to collateral-specific events and, in only one instance, to capital markets-specific events. As of March 31, 2021, borrowings under these financing arrangements had a weighted average credit spread of 2.4% and a weighted average term to extended maturity (assuming we have exercised all extension options and term-out provisions) of 2.8 years. These financing arrangements are generally 25% recourse to Holdco.

Key Financial Measures and Indicators

As a commercial real estate finance company, we believe the key financial measures and indicators for our business are earnings per share, dividends declared per common share, CoreDistributable Earnings, and book value per share. For the three months ended September 30, 2017,March 31, 2021, we recorded earnings per diluted common share of $0.35,$0.30, an increase of $0.21 per diluted common share from the three months ended December 31, 2020, primarily due to a reduction in credit loss expense of $4.0 million during the three months ended March 31, 2021, compared to a $16.3 million credit loss expense during the preceding quarter. Distributable Earnings per diluted common share was $0.27 for the three months ended March 31, 2021, an increase of $0.12 from the three months ended December 31, 2020, mainly due to an increase in our net income.

For the three months ended March 31, 2021, we declared a cash dividend of $0.33$0.20 per common share, and reported $0.35which was paid on April 23, 2021.

Our book value per common share as of Core Earnings. In addition,March 31, 2021 was $16.61, a $0.11 increase from our book value per common share as of September 30, 2017 was $19.80.December 31, 2020, primarily due to retained earnings in excess of the dividends declared on our Series A and Series B preferred stock and our common stock. As further described below, CoreDistributable Earnings is a measure that is not prepared in accordance with GAAP. We use CoreDistributable Earnings to evaluate our performance excluding the effects of certain transactions and GAAP adjustments that we believe are not necessarily indicative of our current loan activity and operations.

Earnings Per Common Share and Dividends Declared Per Common Share

The computation of diluted earnings per share is based on the weighted average number of participating securities outstanding plus the incremental shares that would be outstanding assuming exercise of warrants, which are exercisable on a net-settlement basis. The number of incremental shares is calculated by applying the treasury stock method. We exclude participating securities and warrants from the calculation of basic earnings (loss) per share in periods of net losses since their effect would be anti-dilutive. For the three months ended March 31, 2021, we present diluted earnings per share because the average market price of the Company’s common stock during the three months ended March 31, 2021 was $10.95, which exceeds the strike price of $7.50 per common share for warrants currently outstanding.

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

CoreDistributable Earnings

We use CoreDistributable Earnings to evaluate our performance excluding the effects of certain transactions and GAAP adjustments we believe are not necessarily indicative of our current loan activity and operations. CoreDistributable Earnings is a non-GAAP measure, which we define as GAAP net income (loss) attributable to our stockholders, including realized gains and losses not otherwise included in GAAP net income (loss), and excluding (i) non-cash equity compensation expense, (ii) depreciation and amortization, (iii) unrealized gains (losses), and (iv) certain non-cash items. CoreDistributable Earnings may also be adjusted from time to time to exclude one-time events pursuant to changes in GAAP and certain other non-cash charges as determined by our Manager, subject to approval by a majority of our independent directors. The exclusion of depreciation and amortization from the calculation of CoreDistributable Earnings only applies to debt investments related to real estate to the extent we foreclose upon the property or properties underlying such debt investments. Distributable Earnings is substantially the same as Core Earnings, as defined in our Management Agreement, for the three months ended March 31, 2021.

We believe that CoreDistributable Earnings provides meaningful information for our investors to consider in addition to our net income and cash flow from operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP. This adjusted measure helpsWe made an election to be taxed as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes, commencing with our initial taxable year ended December 31, 2014. We generally must distribute annually at least 90% of our net taxable income, subject to certain adjustments and excluding any net capital gain, in order for us to evaluate our performance excludingqualify as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes. To the effects of certain transactions and GAAP adjustmentsextent that we believe are not necessarily indicativesatisfy this distribution requirement but distribute less than 100% of our currentnet taxable income, we will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on our undistributed taxable income. Dividends are one of the principal reasons investors invest in our common stock and over time Distributable Earnings has been a useful indicator of our dividends per share. As such, Distributable Earnings is a measure considered by us in determining dividends.

In assessing the impact of the new credit loss accounting guidance on our Distributable Earnings, we determined that, consistent with our policy on credit loss measurement and our stakeholders’ view of realized loan portfolio and operations. Although pursuantlosses, the credit loss provision or reversal as computed under Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses, should be included within unrealized gains, losses or other non-cash items as referenced above, but only to the Management Agreement we calculateextent that it exceeds any realized credit losses during the incentive and base management fees dueperiod. See Note 2 to our Manager using Core Earnings before incentive fees expense, we report Core Earnings after incentive fee expense, because we believeConsolidated Financial Statements included in this Form 10-Q for details related to our accounting policy on credit loss measurement. Consistent with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 326, a loan will be charged off as a realized loss when it is deemed non-recoverable upon a more meaningful presentationrealization event. This is generally at the time the loan receivable is settled, transferred or exchanged, or in the case of foreclosure, when the underlying property is sold, but non-recoverability may also be concluded by us if, in our determination, it is nearly certain that all amounts due will not be collected. The realized loss shall equal the difference between the cash received, or expected to be received, and the book value of the economic performanceasset. This policy is reflective of our common and Class A common stock.economics as it relates to the ultimate realization of the loan.

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

For additional information on the fees we pay our Manager, see Note 10 to our Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Form 10-Q.

Third Quarter 2017 Highlights

Operating Results:

Generated net income of $20.8 million, an increase of $3.3 million, or 19.2%, as compared to the third quarter of 2016.

Declared dividends of $20.1 million, or $0.33 per share, representing an annualized dividend yield of 6.7% on a Book Value per Common Share of $19.80 as of September 30, 2017.

Reported Core Earnings of $20.8 million, or $0.35 per share, a 17.9% decrease from the quarter ended June 30, 2017.  

Investment Portfolio Activity:

Originated seven loans with a total commitment of approximately $775.2 million, an unpaid principal balance of $637.1 million, unfunded commitments of $138.1 million, and a weighted average credit spread of LIBOR plus 4.2%.

Funded $66.8 million in connection with existing loans having future funding obligations.

Received cash proceeds of $67.8 million, including $55.0 million from principal repayments and $12.8 million from loan sales.


Portfolio Financing:

At September 30, 2017, we had unrestricted cash available for investment of $64.8 million.

At September 30, 2017, we had undrawn capacity (liquidity available to us without the need to pledge more collateral to our lenders) of $281.4 million under secured revolving repurchase and senior secured credit facilities with seven lenders and asset-specific financings:

$147.0 million of undrawn capacity on account of our secured revolving repurchase and senior secured credit facilities, with a maximum facility commitment of $2.9 billion and a weighted average credit spread of LIBOR plus 2.2% as of September 30, 2017, providing stable financing, with mark-to-market provisions limited to asset and market specific events and a weighted average term to extended maturity (assuming we have exercised all extension options and term out provisions) of 2.6 years.

$134.4 million of undrawn capacity on account of asset-specific financings with a maximum commitment amount of $399.2 million at a weighted average credit spread of 3.8% and a weighted average term to extended maturity (assuming we have exercised all extension options and term out provisions) of 2.6 years.  

As of September 30, 2017, we had $1.4 billion of financing capacity under secured revolving repurchase and senior secured credit facilities provided by seven lenders. Our ability to draw on this capacity is dependent upon our lenders’ willingness to accept as collateral loans or CMBS we pledge to them to secure additional borrowings.

$1.2 billion of financing capacity is available under our secured revolving repurchase and senior secured credit facilities for loan originations and acquisitions, with a maximum facility commitment of $2.7 billion and credit spreads based upon the LTV and other risk characteristics of collateral pledged, which together provide stable financing with mark-to-market provisions generally limited to asset and market specific events, and a weighted average term to extended maturity (assuming we have exercised all extension options and term out provisions) of 2.7 years. These facilities are 25% recourse to the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, TPG RE Finance Trust Holdco, LLC (“Holdco”).

$156.6 million of financing capacity is available for CMBS investments, with a maximum facility commitment of $200 million, credit spreads based upon the haircut and other risk characteristics of the collateral pledged and a weighted average term to extended maturity (assuming we have exercised all extension options and term out provisions and have obtained the consent of our lenders) of 0.1 years. These facilities are 100% recourse to Holdco.

In certain instances, we originate our mezzanine loans through the use of non-consolidated senior interests—the contemporaneous issuance of a first mortgage loan to a third-party, lender or the non-recourse transfer of a first mortgage loan originated by us. In either case, the senior mortgage loan (i.e., the non-consolidated senior interest) is not included on our balance sheet. When we originate a loan in connection with the contemporaneous issuance or the non-recourse transfer of a non-consolidated senior interest, we retain on our balance sheet a mezzanine loan. Total loan commitment encompasses the entire loan portfolio we originated, acquired and financed, including $135.5 million of suchfinanced. At March 31, 2021, we had one non-consolidated senior interests sold or co-originated in three loans that are not included in our balance sheet portfolio. See “—Portfolio Financing—Non-Consolidated Senior Interests” for additional information.interest outstanding of $132.0 million.

Unpaid principal balance includes PIK interest of $5.5 million as of March 31, 2021.

(3)

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

(3)(4)

As of September 30, 2017,March 31, 2021, our floating rate loans were indexed to LIBOR. In addition to credit spread, all-in yield includes the amortization of deferred origination fees, purchase price premium and discount, loan origination costs and accrual of both extension and exit fees. Credit spread and all-in yield for the total portfolio assumes the applicable floating benchmark rate as of September 30, 2017March 31, 2021 for weighted average calculations.

(4)(5)

Extended maturity assumes all extension options are exercised by the borrower; provided, however, that our loans may be repaid prior to such date. As of September 30, 2017,March 31, 2021, based on the unpaid principal balance of our total loan exposure, 69.1%23.0% of our loans were subject to yield maintenance or other prepayment restrictions and 30.9%77.0% were open to repayment by the borrower without penalty.

Except for construction loans, LTV is calculated for loan originations and existing loans as the total outstanding principal balance of the loan or participation interest in a loan plus(plus any financing that is pari passu with or senior to such loan or participation interestinterest) as of September 30, 2017,March 31, 2021, divided by the applicable as-is real estateappraised value of our collateral at the time of origination or acquisition of such loan or participation interest in ainterest. For construction loans only, LTV is calculated as the total commitment amount of the loan divided by the as-stabilized value of the real estate securing the loan. The as-is real estateor as-stabilized (as applicable) value reflects our Manager’s estimates, at the time of origination or acquisition of athe loan or participation interest in a loan, of the real estate value underlying such loan or participation interest determined in accordance with our Manager’s underwriting standards and consistent with third-party appraisals obtained by our Manager.

CMBS Portfolio

We may invest in CMBS, or CMBS-related, assets as partFor information regarding the financing of our investment strategy, primarily asloan portfolio, see the section entitled “Investment Portfolio Financing.”

Real Estate Owned

In December 2020, we acquired the Property pursuant to a short-term cash management tool. Our current CMBS Portfolio consistsnegotiated deed-in-lieu of five, fixed rate securities whose underlying collateral is United States treasury bonds or first mortgage loans secured by multifamily or office properties. The underlying real estate collateral is located across the United States, primarily in Washington, Texas, and California, with no state representing more than 13% of an investment’s par value.foreclosure. At September 30, 2017, there were no floating2020, this property served as collateral for a first mortgage loan receivable held for investment with an unpaid principal balance of $112.0 million, an independently-assessed credit loss reserve of $12.8 million, and a net carrying value of $99.2 million. On October 9, 2020, the first mortgage loan reached final maturity without repayment or satisfaction of extension conditions, which triggered a maturity default. On December 31, 2020, we took ownership of the Property, extinguished the first mortgage loan receivable, and realized a loss of $12.8 million, equal to the previously recorded specific CECL reserve on the first mortgage loan. At March 31, 2021, we continued to hold the Property at its estimated fair value at the time of acquisition, net of estimated selling costs, of $99.2 million. Our estimate of the Property’s fair value was determined using a discounted cash flow model and Level 3 inputs, which include estimates of parcel-specific cash flows over a specific holding period, at a discount rate securitiesthat ranges between 8.0% - 17.5% based on the risk profile of estimated cash flows associated with each respective parcel, and an estimated capitalization rate of 6.25%, where applicable. These inputs are based on the highest and best use for each parcel, estimated future values for the parcels based on extensive discussions with local brokers, investors and other market participants, the estimated holding period for the parcels, and discount rates that reflect estimated investor return requirements for the risks associated with the expected use of each sub-parcel. We obtained from a third party a $50.0 million non-recourse first mortgage loan secured by the Property, which is classified as Mortgage Loan Payable on our consolidated balance sheets. See Note 7 to our Consolidated Financial Statements included in our CMBS Portfolio.

This three year structured finance investment is 100% collateralized by multifamily mortgage loans underwritten by the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“FHLMC”), which loans are slated for near term securitization by FHLMC. Upon the contractual maturity of the structured finance investment, FHLMC is required to purchase all of the performing mortgage loans at par. Currently, all of the underlying mortgage loans are performing. The four other CMBS investments are rated AA+ through AAA.

Asset Management

We proactivelyactively manage the assets in our portfolio from closing to final repayment. We are party to an agreement with Situs Asset Management, LLC (“Situs”SitusAMC”), one of the largest commercial mortgage loan servicers, pursuant to which SitusSitusAMC provides us with dedicated asset management employees for performing asset management services pursuant to our proprietary guidelines. Following the closing of an investment, this dedicated asset management team rigorously monitors the investment under our Manager’s oversight, with an emphasis on ongoing financial, legal and quantitative analyses. Through the final repayment of an investment, the asset management team maintains regular contact with borrowers, servicers and local market experts monitoring performance of the collateral, anticipating borrower, property and market issues, and enforcing our rights and remedies when appropriate.

Our Manager reviews our entire loan portfolio quarterly, undertakes an assessment of the performance of each loan, and assigns it a risk rating between “1” and “5,” from least risk to greatest risk, respectively. See NotesNote 2 and 3 to our Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Form 10-Q for a discussion regarding the risk rating system that we use in connection with our portfolio.

The weighted average risk rating of our total loan exposure was 2.6 as of both September 30, 2017based on amortized cost remains unchanged at 3.1 for the periods ended March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2016.2020. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, we upgraded one loan from risk category “3” to “2” because the collateral property achieved lease occupancy at rents in excess of underwriting.

Allowance for Credit Losses

During the three months ended March 31, 2021, we recorded a decrease of $4.0 million in the allowance for credit losses thus reducing the CECL reserve to $58.8 million as of March 31, 2021. This decline was due primarily to expectations of improving macroeconomic conditions, and actual improvements in operating results for many collateral properties adversely affected by COVID-19. The average risk ratings of our loans remain unchanged at 3.1 for the periods ended March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020. The ongoing economic slowdown due to the COVID-19 pandemic has caused reduced investment sales and financing activity in most sectors of the commercial real estate capital markets, which may moderate the pace of loan repayments and will likely impact commercial property values and valuation inputs. While the ultimate impact of these trends remains uncertain, we have made certain forward-looking adjustments to the inputs of our calculation of the allowance for credit losses to reflect uncertainty regarding the timing, strength, and distribution of the economic recovery, and the post-COVID levels of economic activity that may result.

The economic and market disruptions caused by COVID-19 have adversely impacted the financial condition of many of our borrowers. These impacts have and may differ in timing, duration and magnitude depending on factors such as property type and geography. We have experienced a small number of delinquencies and defaults, but we cannot be certain delinquencies and defaults will not increase in the future. Since March 31, 2020, we have entered into approximately 24 loan modification agreements that typically temporarily reduce the amount of cash interest collected, permit the accrual of a portion (typically not more than 50%) of the interest due to be repaid at a later date by the borrower, permit the use of existing reserves to pay interest and other property-level expenses, as well as providing accommodations on conditions for extension, such as waiving debt yield tests, and/or modifying the conditions upon which the underlying borrower may extend the maturity date. In exchange, borrowers and sponsors have made partial principal repayments and/or provided to us additional cash for payment of interest, operating expenses, and replenishment of interest reserves or capital reserves in amounts and combinations acceptable to us. At March 31, 2021, we had 11 loan modifications outstanding with an unpaid principal balance of $943.5 million.

During the three months ended March 31, 2021, we executed five loan modifications with borrowers. As of March 31, 2021, these loans had an aggregate commitment amount of $397.7 million and an aggregate unpaid principal balance of $393.5 million. None of these loan modifications trigger the requirements for accounting as TDRs. In connection with these modifications, borrowers made aggregate principal reduction payments of approximately $4.3 million and infused approximately $5.9 million to replenish reserves. All of the modified loans are performing as of March 31, 2021. Total PIK interest of $0.8 million on two loans was deferred and added to


the outstanding loan principal during the three months ended March 31, 2021. At March 31, 2021, the total amount of PIK interest in the portfolio was $5.5 million with respect to nine loans.

Loan modification activity from April 1, 2020 through March 31, 2021 is summarized in the following table (dollars in thousands):

Includes: (a) an amendment and simultaneous assignment of an existing first mortgage loan by a third-party purchaser of the property securing the loan. This transaction was treated as an extinguishment of the existing loan and origination of a new loan under GAAP; and (b) the sale, at no gain or loss, of a mezzanine loan related to a contiguous first mortgage loan held by the Company.

We continue to work with our borrowers to address the circumstances caused by COVID-19 while seeking to protect the credit attributes of our loans. However, we cannot assure you that these efforts will be successful, and we may experience payment delinquencies, defaults, foreclosures, or losses.

Even if extended, our lenders retain sole discretion to determine whether to accept pledged collateral, and the advance rate and credit spread applicable to each borrowing thereunder.

As of September 30, 2017, aggregate borrowings outstanding under our secured revolving repurchase facilities totaled $1.5 billion, with a weighted average credit spread of LIBOR plus 2.2% per annum, a weighted average all-in cost of credit, including associated fees and expenses, of LIBOR plus 2.7% per annum, and a weighted average effective advance rate of 65.2%. As of September 30, 2017, outstanding borrowings under these facilities had a weighted average term to extended maturity (assuming we have exercised all extension options and term out provisions) of 2.6 years. The Morgan Stanley secured revolving repurchase facility has an initial maturity date of May 4, 2019 and can be extended for additional successive one year periods, subject to approval by the lender. The number of extension options is not limited by the terms of this facility.

During the three months ended September 30 2017, we closed the following amendments to the Company’s existing secured revolving repurchase facilities:

1.

On July 21, 2017, the Company closed an amendment to its existing secured revolving repurchase facility with Morgan Stanley Bank, N.A. to increase the maximum facility amount to $400 million from $250 million. Additionally, the Company has the right to further upsize the facility to $500 million from $400 million upon at least five days’ notice, subject to customary conditions. The facility can be extended for additional successive one year periods, subject to approval by the lender. As was the case prior to the amendment, the number of extension options is not limited by the terms of this facility.

2.

On August 18, 2017, and in connection with the repayment of the Class A Note and the dissolution of the collateralized loan obligation (as discussed below under “Private Collateralized Loan Obligation”), the Company closed an amendment to its existing secured revolving repurchase facility with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. to increase the maximum facility amount by $103.5 million, to $417.3 million, and to include as pledged collateral under the facility the seven first mortgage loan participation interests purchased from the CLO Issuer by one of our wholly-owned subsidiaries on August 18, 2017. With respect only to the upsize amount, amounts borrowed may not be repaid and reborrowed. All other material terms of the credit facility remain unchanged.

Borrowings under our secured revolving repurchase facilities are subject to the initial approval of eligible collateral loans (or CMBS, depending on the facility) by the lender. The maximum advance rate and pricing rate of individual advances are determined with reference to the attributes of the respective collateral.


The maximum and average month end balances for our secured revolving repurchase facilities during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 are as follows (dollars in thousands):

The Maximum month end balance subtotal and total represents the maximum outstanding borrowings on all secured revolving purchase facilities at a month end during the nine months ended September 30, 2017.

In connection with each facility, Holdco executed a guarantee agreement in favor of the counterparty pursuant to which Holdco guarantees the obligations of our subsidiary that is the borrower under the facility for customary “bad-boy events.” Also in connection with each facility, Holdco executed an indemnity in favor of the counterparty pursuant to which Holdco indemnifies the counterparty against actual losses incurred as a result of “bad boy events” on the part of our subsidiary that is the borrower.

We conduct substantially all of our operations and own substantially all of our assets through our holding company subsidiary, Holdco. Holdco has guaranteed repayment of 25% of the principal amount borrowed and other payment obligations under each of our secured revolving repurchase facilities secured by loans and 100% of the principal amount borrowed and other payment obligations under each of our secured revolving repurchase facilities secured by CMBS.

We use secured revolving repurchase facilities to finance certain of our originations or acquisitions of our target assets, which may be accepted by a respective secured revolving repurchase facility lender as collateral. Once we identify an asset and the asset is approved by the secured revolving repurchase facility lender to serve as collateral (which lender’s approval is in its sole discretion), we and the lender may enter into a transaction whereby the lender advances to us a percentage of the value of the asset, which is referred to as the “advance rate,” as the purchase price for such transaction with an obligation of ours to repurchase the asset from the lender for an amount equal to the purchase price for the transaction plus a price differential, which is calculated based on an interest rate. For each transaction, we and the lender agree to a trade confirmation which sets forth, among other things, the purchase price, the maximum advance rate, the interest rate, the market value of the loan asset and any future funding obligations which are contemplated with respect to the specific transaction and/or the underlying loan asset. For loan assets which involve future funding obligations of ours, the repurchase transaction may provide for the repurchase lender to fund portions (for example, pro rata per the maximum advance rate of the related repurchase transaction) of such future funding obligations. Generally, our secured revolving repurchase facilities allow for revolving balances, which allow us to voluntarily repay balances and draw again on existing available credit. The primary obligor on each secured revolving repurchase facility is a separate special purpose subsidiary of ours which is restricted from conducting activity other than activity related to the utilization of its secured revolving repurchase facility. As additional credit support, our holding company subsidiary, Holdco, provides certain guarantees of the obligations of its subsidiaries. The liability of Holdco under the guarantees related to our secured revolving repurchase facilities secured by CMBS is in an amount equal to 100% of the outstanding obligations of the special purpose subsidiary which is the primary obligor under the related facility. The liability of Holdco under the guarantees related to our secured revolving repurchase facilities secured by loans is generally capped at 25% of the outstanding obligations of the special purpose subsidiary which is the primary obligor under the related facility. However, such liability cap under the guarantees related to our secured revolving repurchase facilities secured by loans does not apply in the event of certain “bad boy” defaults which can trigger recourse to Holdco for losses or the entire outstanding obligations of the borrower depending on the nature of the “bad boy” default in question. Examples of such “bad boy” defaults include, without limitation, fraud, intentional misrepresentation, willful misconduct, incurrence of additional debt in violation of financing documents, and the filing of a voluntary or collusive involuntary bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding of the special purpose entity subsidiary or the guarantor entity.

Each of the secured revolving repurchase facilities involves “margin maintenance” provisions, which are designed to allow the repurchase lender to maintain a certain margin of credit enhancement against the loan assets which serve as collateral. The lender’s margin amount is typically based on a percentage of the market value of the loan asset and/or mortgaged property collateral; however, certain secured revolving repurchase facilities may also involve margin maintenance based on maintenance of a minimum debt yield with respect to the cash flow from the underlying real estate collateral. Market value determinations and redeterminations may be made by the repurchase lender in its sole discretion subject to any specified parameters regarding the repurchase lender’s


determination, which may involve the limitation or enumeration of factors which the repurchase lender may consider when determining market value.

At September 30, 2017, the weighted average haircut (which is equal to one minus the advance rate percentage against collateral for our secured revolving repurchase facilities taken as a whole) was 34.8%, as compared to 30.3% at December 31, 2016.

Generally, when the repurchase lender’s margin amount has fallen below the outstanding purchase price for a transaction, a margin deficit exists and the repurchase lender may require that we prepay outstanding amounts on the secured revolving repurchase facility to eliminate such margin deficit. In certain secured revolving repurchase facilities, the repurchase lender’s ability to make a margin call is further limited by certain prerequisites, such as the existence of enumerated “credit events” or that the margin deficit exceed a specified minimum threshold.

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

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

The secured revolving repurchase facilities include customary affirmative and negative covenants for similar secured revolving repurchase facilities, including, but not limited to, reporting requirements, collateral diversity requirements and/or concentration limits, and certain operational restrictions. In addition, each secured revolving repurchase facility requires that the guarantor (Holdco) maintain compliance with financial covenants, including the following:

maintenance of minimum cash liquidity (which includes available borrowing capacity) of no less than $50 million;

maintenance of minimum unrestricted cash of no less than the greater of $12 million and 5.0% of the guarantor’s recourse indebtedness;

maintenance of minimum tangible net worth of at least 75% of the net cash proceeds of all prior equity issuances plus 75% of the net cash proceeds of all subsequent equity issuances;

maintenance of a debt to equity ratio not to exceed 3.0x to 1.0x; and

maintenance of a minimum interest coverage ratio (EBITDA to interest expense) of no less than 1.5x to 1.0x.

Private Collateralized Loan Obligation

In December 2014, we acquired a controlling interest in a portfolio of 55 commercial real estate loans representing $1.9 billion of unpaid principal balance from German American Capital Corporation (“GACC”), and financed it with a note issued by the CLO Issuer. The financing was structured as a non-recourse CLO. CLO Issuer issued a Class A note with an original principal balance of $1.4 billion due September 10, 2023 to Deutsche Bank A.G., New York branch, which is an affiliate of GACC. Our Manager served as the collateral manager for the CLO and was entitled to receive collateral management fees for such services.

On August 16, 2017, the outstanding principal balance of the Class A Note issued by the CLO Issuer was approximately $118.0 million. On August 16, 2017, the CLO Issuer sold to GACC two first mortgage loan participation interests with an aggregate unpaid principal balance of $12.8 million that collateralized in part the Class A Note issued by the CLO Issuer and recognized a $0.2 million loss on sale in Other Income, net. The sales price of the two first mortgage loans was approximately par value. These loans were sold because they were determined by our management to no longer be consistent with the Company’s current investment strategy.

On August 18, 2017, one of the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiaries purchased from the CLO Issuer seven first mortgage loan participation interests with an aggregate unpaid principal balance of $138.5 million that collateralized the remainder of the Class A Note issued by the CLO Issuer. The first mortgage loan participation interests were sold by the CLO Issuer for approximately par value. On August 23, 2017, proceeds from both transactions were used in combination with approximately $3.0 million of Company


cash to retire all amounts outstanding under the Class A Note issued by the CLO Issuer, which totaled $118.0 million. The collateralized loan obligation was subsequently terminated.

Asset-Specific Financings

At September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, we had outstanding seven and four loan investments financed with three and two separate counterparties as asset-specific financings, respectively. In those instances where we have multiple asset-specific financings with the same lender, the financings are not cross-collateralized.

In connection with the Deutsche Bank and Bank of the Ozarks asset-specific financings, Holdco has provided funding guarantees under which Holdco guarantees the funding obligations of the special purpose lending entity in limited circumstances. In addition, under the Deutsche Bank and Bank of the Ozarks asset-specific financings, Holdco has delivered limited non-recourse carve-out guarantees in favor of the lenders as additional credit support for the financings. These guarantees trigger recourse to Holdco as a result of certain “bad boy” defaults for actual losses incurred by such party or the entire outstanding obligations of the financing borrower depending on the nature of the “bad boy” default in question.

In connection with the BMO Harris asset-specific financing, Holdco has delivered a payment guarantee in favor of the lender as additional credit support for the financing. The liability of Holdco under this guarantee is generally capped at 25% of the outstanding obligations of the special purpose subsidiary which is the primary obligor under the financing. In addition, Holdco has delivered a non-recourse carveout guarantee, which can trigger recourse to Holdco as a result of certain “bad boy” defaults for losses incurred by BMO Harris or the entire outstanding obligations of the financing borrower, depending on the nature of the “bad boy” default in question.

Examples of “bad boy” defaults under the Deutsche Bank, Bank of the Ozarks and BMO Harris asset-specific financings include, without limitation, fraud, intentional misrepresentation, willful misconduct, incurrence of additional debt in violation of financing documents, and the filing of a voluntary or collusive involuntary bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding of the special purpose entity subsidiary or the guarantor entity.

The guarantee agreements for each of the asset-specific financings also contain financial covenants covering liquid assets and net worth requirements.

Senior Secured Credit Facility

On September 29, 2017 we entered into a senior secured credit facility agreement with Bank of America Merrill Lynch N.A. that has a maximum facility amount $250 million, which may increase from time to time, up to $500 million, at our request and agreement by the lender. We have not drawn on the facility. The current extended maturity of this facility is September 2022.

(1)

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

(2)

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

(3)

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

(4)

Our ability to extend our secured credit facilities to the dates shown above is subject to satisfaction of certain instances, we originateconditions. Even if extended, our mezzanine loans throughlenders retain sole discretion to determine whether to accept pledged collateral, and the useadvance rate and credit spread applicable to each borrowing thereunder.


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

For each transaction, we and the lender agree to a trade confirmation which sets forth, among other things, the purchase price if a repurchase facility, the maximum advance rate, the interest rate and the market value of the asset. For transactions under our secured credit agreements secured by our loan assets, the trade confirmation may also set forth any future funding obligations which are contemplated with respect to the specific transaction and/or the underlying loan asset. For loan assets which involve future funding obligations of ours, the transaction may provide for the lender to fund portions (for example, pro rata per the maximum advance rate of the related transaction) of such future funding obligations. The trade confirmation can also set forth loan-specific margin maintenance provisions, described below.

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

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

Our secured credit facilities contain defined mark-to-market provisions that permit the lenders to issue margin calls to us in the event that the collateral properties underlying our loans pledged to our lenders experience a non-temporary decline in value or net cash flow (“credit marks”) due to reasons other than capital markets events that result in changing credit spreads for similar borrowing obligations. In connection with one of these borrowing arrangements, the lender is also permitted to issue margin calls to us in the event the lender determines capital markets events have caused credit spreads to change for similar borrowing obligations (“spread marks”). Furthermore, in connection with one of these borrowing arrangements, the lender has the right to re-margin the secured credit facility based solely on appraised loan-to-values in the third year of the facility. On May 28, 2020, we made voluntary deleveraging payments totaling $157.7 million to our seven secured credit facility lenders in exchange for their agreement to suspend margin calls for defined periods, subject to certain conditions. When these payments were made, no margin deficits existed, and no margin calls have been issued to us since. The margin holiday agreements expired in December 2020. If market turbulence returns, we may be exposed to margin calls in connection with our secured credit agreements secured by our mortgage loan investments.

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

At March 31, 2021, the weighted average haircut (which is equal to one minus the advance rate percentage against collateral for our secured credit facilities taken as a whole) was 32.1% as compared to 30.7% at December 31, 2020 and 19.5% at March 31, 2020. The year-over-year increase in our weighted average haircut was due to the repayment in full and subsequent termination by the Company of all of its secured credit agreements for CRE debt securities, which generally had lower haircuts than our secured credit agreements for whole loans.


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

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

Collateralized Loan Obligations

At March 31, 2021, we had three collateralized loan obligations, TRTX 2021-FL4, TRTX 2019-FL3 and TRTX 2018-FL2, totaling $2.9 billion, financing 39 existing first mortgage loan investments totaling $3.2 billion, and holding $310.1 million of cash for investment in eligible loan collateral. Our CLOs provide low cost, non-mark-to-market, non-recourse financing for 74.3% of our loan portfolio borrowings. The collateralized loan obligations bear a weighted average interest rate of LIBOR plus 1.5%, have a weighted average advance rate of 82.6%, and include a reinvestment feature that allows us to contribute existing or newly originated loan investments in exchange for proceeds from loan repayments held in the collateralized loan obligations. At March 31, 2021, we had approximately $308.9 million in the FL4 Ramp-Up Account available to purchase eligible collateral interests during a ramp-up period of approximately six months following the FL4 Closing Date. See Note 6 to our Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Form 10-Q for details. The reinvestment period for TRTX 2018-FL2 ended on December 11, 2020. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, we did not utilize the reinvestment feature in TRTX 2019-FL3.

Mortgage Loan Payable

We are, through a special purpose entity subsidiary, a borrower under a $50.0 million mortgage loan secured by the Property. Refer to Note 4 to our Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Form 10-Q for additional information. The first mortgage loan was provided by an institutional lender, has an initial maturity date of December 15, 2021, and an option to extend the maturity for 12 months subject to the satisfaction of customary extension conditions, including (i) the purchase of a new interest rate cap for the extension term, (ii) replenishment of the interest reserve with an amount equal to 12 months of debt service, (iii) payment of a 0.25% extension fee on the outstanding principal balance, and (iv) no event of default. The first mortgage loan permits partial releases of collateral in exchange for payment of a minimum release price equal to the greater of 100% of net sales proceeds (after reasonable transaction expenses) or 115% of the allocated loan amount. The loan bears interest at a rate of LIBOR plus 4.50% subject to a LIBOR interest rate floor and cap of 0.50%. We posted cash of $2.4 million to pre-fund interest payments due under the note during its initial term. The remaining reserve balance at March 31,2021 was $2.0 million.

Non-Consolidated Senior Interests

In certain instances, we create structural leverage through the co-origination or non-recourse syndication of a senior loan interest to a third party. In either case, the senior mortgage loan (i.e., the non-consolidated senior interest) is not included on our balance sheet. When we create structural leverage through the co-origination or non-recourse syndication of a senior loan interest to a third party, we retain on our balance sheet a mezzanine loan. As of March 31, 2021, the Company retained a mezzanine loan investment with a total commitment of $35.0 million, an unpaid principal balance of $33.5 million and an interest rate of LIBOR plus 10.3%.

Financial Covenants for Outstanding Borrowings

Our financial covenants and guarantees for outstanding borrowings related to our secured credit agreements require Holdco to maintain compliance with the following financial covenants (among others), which were revised on May 28, 2020 as follows:

Financial Covenant

Current

Cash Liquidity

Minimum cash liquidity of no less than the contemporaneous issuancegreater of: $10.0 million; and 5.0% of a firstHoldco’s recourse indebtedness

Tangible Net Worth

$1.1 billion as of April 1, 2020, plus 75% of future equity issuances thereafter

Debt-to-Equity

Debt-to-Equity ratio not to exceed 3.5 to 1.0 with "equity" and "equity adjustment" as defined below

Interest Coverage

Minimum interest coverage ratio of no less than 1.5 to 1.0

The amendments as of May 28, 2020 revised the definition of tangible net worth such that the baseline amount for testing was reset as of April 1, 2020 to $1.1 billion plus 75% of future equity issuances after April 1, 2020. The definition of equity for purposes of calculating the debt-to-equity covenant was revised to include: common equity; preferred equity; and an adjustment equal to the sum of the Current Expected Credit Loss reserve, write-downs, impairments or realized losses recorded against the value of any assets of Holdco or its subsidiaries from and after April 1, 2020; provided, however, that the equity adjustment may not exceed the amount of (a) Holdco’s total equity less (b) the product of Holdco’s total indebtedness multiplied by 25%.

For so long as the Series B Preferred Stock is outstanding, we are required to maintain a debt-to-equity ratio not greater than 3.0 to 1.0. For the purpose of determining this ratio, the aggregate liquidation preference of the outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock is excluded from the calculation of total indebtedness of the Company and its subsidiaries, and is included in the calculation of total equity.

We were in compliance with all financial covenants for our secured credit agreements and mortgage loan payable to the extent of outstanding balances as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, and were in compliance with the financial covenant relating to the Series B Preferred Stock as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020.

If we fail to meet or satisfy any of the covenants in our financing arrangements and are unable to obtain a waiver or other suitable relief from the lenders, we would be in default under these agreements, which could result in a cross-default or cross-acceleration under other financing arrangements, and our lenders could elect to declare outstanding amounts due and payable (or such amounts may automatically become due and payable), terminate their commitments, require the posting of additional collateral and enforce their respective interests against existing collateral. A default also could significantly limit our financing alternatives, which could cause us to curtail our investment activities or dispose of assets when we otherwise would not choose to do so. Further, this could make it difficult for us to satisfy the requirements necessary to maintain our qualification as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes. There can be no assurance that we will remain in compliance with these covenants in the future. For more information regarding the impact that COVID-19 may have on our ability to comply with these covenants, see risk factors set forth in our Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 24, 2021.

Floating Rate Portfolio

Our business model seeks to minimize our exposure to changing interest rates by match-indexing our assets using the same, or similar, benchmark indices, typically one-month USD LIBOR, as well as durations. Accordingly, rising interest rates will generally increase our net income, while declining interest rates will generally decrease our net income. As of September 30, 2017, 98.8% of our loans by unpaid principal balance earned a floating rate of interest and were financed with liabilities that require interest payments based on floating rates, which resulted in approximately $1.0 billion of net floating rate exposure that is positively correlated to rising interest rates, subject to the impact of interest rate floors on certain of our floating rate loans. As of September 30, 2017, the remaining


1.2% of our loans by unpaid principal balance earned a fixed rate of interest, but were financed with liabilities that require interest payments based on floating rates, which results in a negative correlation to rising interest rates to the extent of our amount of fixed rate financing. Due to the short remaining term to maturity of these fixed rate loans and the small percentage of our loan portfolio represented by these fixed rate loans, we have elected not to employ interest rate derivatives (interest rate swaps, caps, collars or swaptions) to limit our exposure to increases in interest rates on such liabilities, but we may do so in the future.

Our liabilities are generally index-matched to each collateral asset, resulting in a net exposure to movements in benchmark rates that vary based on the relative proportion of floating rate assets and liabilities. The following table details our portfolio’s net floating rate exposure as of September 30, 2017 (dollars in thousands):

Floating Rate Portfolio

Our business model seeks to minimize our exposure to changing interest rates by match-indexing our assets using the same, or similar, benchmark indices, typically LIBOR. Accordingly, rising interest rates will generally increase our net interest income, while declining interest rates will generally decrease our net interest income, subject to the beneficial impact of LIBOR floors in our mortgage loan investment portfolio. As of March 31, 2021, 100.0% of our loans by unpaid principal balance earned a floating rate of interest and were financed with liabilities that require interest payments based on floating rates, which resulted in approximately $0.9 billion of net floating rate exposuresubject to the impact of interest rate floors on all our floating rate loans and 8.0% of our liabilities. We had no fixed rate loans outstanding as of March 31, 2021.

Our liabilities are generally index-matched to each loan investment asset, resulting in a net exposure to movements in benchmark rates that vary based on the relative proportion of floating rate assets and liabilities.

Floating rate mortgage loan assets and liabilities are indexed to LIBOR. The net exposure to the underlying benchmark interest rate is directly correlated to our assets indexed to the same rate.

(2)

Floating rate liabilities include secured credit facilities and collateralized loan obligations.

With the cessation of LIBOR expected to occur effective January 1, 2022, we continue to evaluate the documentation and control processes associated with our assets and liabilities to manage the transition away from LIBOR to an alternative rate endorsed by the Alternative Reference Rates Committee of the Federal Reserve System. Although recent statements from regulators indicate the possibility of a longer period of transition, perhaps through June 2023, we continue to utilize required resources to revise our control and risk management systems to ensure there is no disruption to our day-to-day operations from the transition, when it does occur. We will continue to employ prudent risk management as it relates to the potential financial, operational and legal risks associated with the expected cessation of LIBOR, and to ensure that our assets and liabilities generally remain match-indexed following this event.

Comparison of the Three Months Ended March 31, 2021 and March 31, 2020

Net Interest Income

Net interest income decreased to $37.9 million, during the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to $43.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020. The decrease was primarily due to the decrease in interest earning assets of $1.1 billion driven by the sale of the entire CRE debt securities portfolio in the second quarter of 2020, decrease in average LIBOR from 1.4% in the first quarter of 2020 to 0.11% in the first quarter of 2021, offset by the benefit of LIBOR floors with a weighted average strike price of 1.64%.

Other Revenue

Other revenue is comprised of net gain/loss on the sale of certain loans and CMBS investments, interest income earned on certain cash collection accounts, net operating income from REO held for investment and miscellaneous fee income. Other revenue increaseddecreased by $0.7$0.2 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017,March 31, 2021 compared to the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016. The changes in other revenue were partiallyMarch 31, 2020, primarily due to higher cash balances duringlower overnight interest earned for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017. Additionally, we recognized a gain on sale related to our CMBS investments of $0.3 million and a $0.1 million increase in miscellaneous fee income during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017,March 31, 2021 compared to the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016.March 31, 2020.


Other Expenses

Other expenses are comprised of professional fees, general and administrative expenses, servicing and asset management fees, management fees payable to our Manager, and collateral management fees. Due primarily to increased operating costs as a public company and increased fees payable to our Manager as a result of our initial public offering and the calculation of such fees in our new Management Agreement, we expect these expenses to continue to increase following the completion of our initial public offering. We expect our general and administrative expenses to continue to increase following our initial public offering as a result of investor relations, SEC reporting costs, increased accounting fees, NYSE registration costs, regulatory compliance, and other items required of a public company.

Other expenses increased by $1.5 million and $4.3decreased $0.4 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017March 31, 2021 compared to the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016. The increaseMarch 31, 2020, mainly due to a decrease of $0.6 million in other expensesprofessional fees (legal, accounting and advisory fees) incurred in connection with our response to COVID-19 during the three months ended March 31, 2020.

Credit Loss

Credit loss expense decreased by $67.4 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, wasMarch 31, 2021 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2020, primarily due to ana net increase in management feescredit loss expense of $63.3 million due to growthchanges in economic outlook resulting from the Company’s quarterlyimpact of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Securities Impairments

We had no securities impairment expense for the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to $203.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020. Securities impairment expense for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was due to losses on sales of CRE debt securities of $36.2 million, and an impairment charge of $167.3 million in connection with CRE debt securities owned at March 31, 2020 (which combined aggregate $203.5 million).

Dividends Declared Per Common Share

During the three months ended March 31, 2021, we declared cash dividends of $0.20 per common stockholder’s equity base and additional general and administrative expenses asshare, or $15.5 million. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, we declared cash dividends of $0.43 per common share, or $33.2 million.

Unrealized Gain (Loss) on CRE Debt Securities

Other comprehensive income (loss) decreased $1.0 million during the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to the same periodsthree months ended March 31, 2020. The decrease is primarily related to the reversal of unrealized gains upon the sale of certain CRE debt securities.

Income Tax Expense

Income tax expense increased $0.8 million during the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2020 primarily due to the excess inclusion income (“EII”) generated by certain of Sub-REIT‘s CLOs due to unusually low LIBOR rates beginning in March 2020 coupled with the prior year.

benefit of LIBOR floors relating to the various loans and participation interests pledged to Sub-REIT’s CLOs. Pursuant to the Parent LLC operating agreement, any EII allocated from Sub-REIT to Parent LLC is allocated further to the TRSs. Consequently, no EII is allocated to us and, as a result, our shareholders will not be allocated any EII or unrelated business taxable income by us. See Note 10 to our Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Form 10-Q for details regarding our Management Agreement and the revisions made in connection with the initial public offering.

Incentive Compensation

The incentive compensation earned by our Manager decreased by $0.4 million and increased by $0.9 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, respectively, compared to the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016. The changes in incentive compensation to our Manager were primarily a result of the Management Agreement revisions during the three months ended September 30, 2017 in connection with the completion of our initial public offering.

The increase of $0.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to September 30, 2016 were a result of Core Earnings growth and an increase to the Company’s quarterly common stockholder’s equity base.

See Note 10 to our Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Form 10-Q for details regarding our Management agreement and the revisions made in connection with the initial public offering.

Dividends Declared Per Share

For the three months ended September 30, 2017, we declared dividends of $0.33 per share, or $20.1 million. On September 29, 2016, we declared a dividend associated with the third quarter of 2016 in the amount of $0.41 per share of common stock and Class A common stock, or $17.0 million in the aggregate, which was paid on October 26, 2016.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, we declared dividends of $1.02 per share, or $61.9 million, and $1.18 per share, or $48.5 million, respectively.


Unrealized (Loss) Gain on CMBS

Other comprehensive (loss) income decreased $4.1 million and $3.8 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, respectively, compared to the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016. The decrease is primarily related to the sale of a CMBS investment during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 and changes in the composition of our CMBS investments from repayment and investment activities during the comparable periods in 2016.additional details.

Comprised mainly of FL4 Ramp-Up Account as described in Note 6 to our Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Form 10-Q.

Our existing loan portfolio also provides us with liquidity as loans are repaid or sold, in whole or in part, of which some proceeds may be included in accounts receivable from our servicers until released and the proceeds from such repayments become available for us to reinvest. Due to severe dislocation in the capital markets caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, the volume of loan repayments declined in comparison to prior years. For the three months ended March 31, 2021, loan repayments representing partial repayments on four loans, measured by principal amount repaid, totaled $5.3 million. Loan repayments, measured by principal amount repaid, were $300.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020.

At March 31, 2021, we had approximately $308.9 million in the FL4 Ramp-Up Account available to purchase eligible collateral interests during a ramp-up period of approximately six months following the FL4 Closing Date. See Note 6 to our Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Form 10-Q for details.

We continue to monitor the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on our borrowers, their tenants, our lenders, and the economy as a whole. The magnitude and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic, and its impact on our operations and liquidity, are uncertain and continue to evolve in the United States and globally. Additional regional surges in infection rates due to COVID-19 variants, reversed re-openings, uncertainty regarding the effectiveness of vaccines approved for COVID-19, or high proportions of vaccine hesitancy in certain regions may have a material impact on our operations and liquidity.

With respect to our debt obligations that are contractually obligated to be paid indue within the next fewfive years, we plan to employ several strategies to meet these obligations, including: (i) applying repayments from underlying loans to satisfy the debt obligations which they secure;exercising maturity date extension options that exist in our current financing arrangements; (ii) negotiating extensions of terms with our providers of credit; (iii) periodically accessing the public and private equity and debt capital markets to raise cash to fund new investments;investments or the repayment of indebtedness; (iv) exploring the issuance of aadditional structured finance vehicle,vehicles, such as a CLO,collateralized loan obligations similar to TRTX 2021-FL4, TRTX 2019-FL3 or TRTX 2018-FL2, as a method of financing; and/or (v) term loans with private lenders; (vi) selling loan assetsloans to generate cash to repay our debt obligations.obligations; and/or (vii) applying repayments from underlying loans to satisfy the debt obligations which they secure.

Critical Accounting Policies

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

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

For a discussion of our critical accounting policies, see Note 2 to our Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Form 10-Q.

Item 3. Quantitative and QualitativeQualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Interest Rate Risk

Our business model is such thatseeks to minimize our exposure to changing interest rates by matching duration of our assets and liabilities and match-indexing our assets using the same, or similar, benchmark indices, typically LIBOR. Accordingly, rising interest rates will generally increase our net interest income, while declining interest rates will generally decrease our net income.interest income, subject to the impact of interest rate floors embedded in substantially all of our loans. At March 31, 2021, the weighted average LIBOR floor for our loan portfolio was 1.64%. As of September 30, 2017, 98.8%March 31, 2021, 100% of our loans by unpaid principal balance earned a floating rate of interest and were financed with liabilities that require interest payments based on floating rates, which resulted in an amount of net equity that is positively correlated to rising interest rates. As of September 30, 2017, the remaining 1.2%Approximately 90.8% of our loans by unpaid principal balance earned a fixed rate of interest, but were financed with liabilities that require interest payments based on floating rates, which resulted in a negative correlation to rising interest rates to the extent of our amount of fixed rate financing.do not contain LIBOR floors greater than zero.

The following table illustrates the impact on our interest income and interest expense, for the twelve-month period following September 30, 2017, assumingMarch 31, 2021, of an immediate increase or decrease in the underlying benchmark interest rate of both 25, 50 and 5075 basis points in the applicable intereston our existing floating rate benchmarkmortgage loan portfolio and related liabilities (dollars in thousands):

BorrowingsFloating rate liabilities include secured revolving repurchasecredit facilities asset-specific financings, and non-consolidated senior interests sold or co-originated.collateralized loan obligations.

Credit Risk

Our loans and other investments are also subject to credit risk. The performance and value of our loans and other investments depend upon the sponsors’ ability to operate the properties that serve as our collateral so that they produce cash flows adequate to pay interest and principal due to us. To monitor this risk, the asset management team reviews our portfolio and maintains regular contact with borrowers, co-lenders and local market experts to monitor the performance of the underlying collateral, anticipate borrower, property and market issues and, to the extent necessary or appropriate, enforce our rights as the lender.

In addition, we are exposed to the risks generally associated with the commercial real estate market, including variances in occupancy rates, capitalization rates, absorption rates and other macroeconomic factors beyond our control. We seek to manage these risks through our underwriting and asset management processes.

Liquidity Risk

Liquidity is a measure of our ability to meet potential cash requirements, including ongoing commitments to repay borrowings including margin calls, fund and maintain investments, pay dividends to our stockholders and other general business needs. Our liquidity risk is principally associated with our financing of longer-maturity investments with shorter-term borrowings in the form of secured credit agreements. We are subject to “margin call” risk under our secured credit agreements. In the event that the value of our assets pledged as collateral suddenly decreases as a result of changes in credit spreads or interest rates, margin calls relating to our secured credit agreements could increase, causing an adverse change in our liquidity position. See “Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Our Results of Operations—Liquidity and Capital Resources—Liquidity Needs” in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 24, 2021 for information regarding margin calls that we funded during the quarter ended March 31, 2020 in connection with secured credit agreements used to finance our former investments in CRE debt securities. Additionally, if one or more of our secured credit agreement counterparties chooses not to provide ongoing funding, we may be unable to replace the financing through other lenders on favorable terms or at all. As such, we provide no assurance that we will be able to roll over or replace our secured credit agreements as they mature from time to time in the future. Prior to making our voluntary deleveraging payment during the second quarter of 2020, we satisfied one margin call aggregating $20.0 million in connection with our secured credit agreements financing our loan investments by pledging a previously unencumbered loan investment. On May 28, 2020, we made voluntary deleveraging payments totaling $157.7 million to our six secured credit facility lenders and one secured credit facility lender in exchange for their agreement to suspend margin calls for defined periods, subject to certain conditions. At the time these payments were made, no margin deficits existed, and no margin calls have been issued to us since. If market turbulence returns, we may be required to post cash collateral in


connection with our secured credit agreements secured by our mortgage loan investments upon or after the expiry of these agreements. We maintain frequent dialogue with the lenders under our secured credit agreements regarding our management of their collateral assets in light of the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. For more information regarding the impact that COVID-19 has had on our liquidity and may have on our future liquidity, see risk factors set forth in our Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 24, 2021.

In some situations, we have in the past, and may in the future, be forced to sell assets to maintain adequate liquidity. Market disruptions may lead to a significant decline in transaction activity in all or a significant portion of the asset classes in which we invest and may at the same time lead to a significant contraction in short-term and long-term debt and equity funding sources. A decline in market liquidity of real estate-related investments, as well as a lack of availability of observable transaction data and inputs, may make it more difficult to sell assets or determine their fair values. As a result, we may be unable to sell investments, or only be able to sell investments at a price that may be materially different from the fair values presented. Also, in such conditions, there is no guarantee that our borrowing arrangements or other arrangements for obtaining leverage will continue to be available or, if available, will be available on terms and conditions acceptable to us.

Prepayment Risk

Prepayment risk is the risk that principal will be repaid at a different rate than anticipated, causing the return on certain investments to be less than expected. As we receive prepayments of principal on our assets, any premiums paid on such assets are amortized against interest income. In general, an increase in prepayment rates accelerates the amortization of purchase premiums, thereby reducing the interest income earned on the assets. Conversely, discounts on such assets are accreted into interest income. In general, an increase in prepayment rates accelerates the accretion of purchase discounts, thereby increasing the interest income earned on the assets.

Extension Risk

Our Manager computes the projected weighted average life of our assets based on assumptions regarding the rate at which the borrowers will prepay the mortgages or extend. If prepayment rates decrease in a rising interest rate environment or extension options are exercised, the life of the fixed rate assetsour loan investments could extend beyond the term of the secured debt agreements. We expect that the economic and market disruptions caused by COVID-19 will lead to a decrease in prepayment rates and an increase in the number of our borrowers who exercise extension options. This could have a negative impact on our results of operations. In some situations, we may be forced to sell assets to maintain adequate liquidity, which could cause us to incur losses. For more information regarding the impact of COVID-19 on the financial condition of our borrowers, see risk factors set forth in our Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 24, 2021.


Capital Market RisksRisk

We are exposed to risks related to the equity capital markets and our related ability to raise capital through the issuance of our stock or other equity instruments. We are also exposed to risks related to the debt capital markets and our related ability to finance our business through borrowings under secured revolving repurchase facilitiescredit agreements, collateralized loan obligations, mortgage loan payable, term loans, or other debt instruments or facilities.arrangements. As a REIT, we are required to distribute a significant portion of our taxable income annually, which constrains our ability to accumulate operating cash flow and therefore requires us to utilize debt or equity capital to finance our business. We seek to mitigate these risks by monitoring the debt and equity capital markets to inform our decisions on the amount, timing and terms of capital we raise.

During 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic caused significant disruptions to the U.S. and global economies. These disruptions have contributed to significant and ongoing volatility, widening credit spreads and sharp declines in liquidity in the real estate securities markets. This capital markets environment has led to increased cost of funds and reduced availability of efficient debt capital, factors which have caused us to reduce our investment activity. We also anticipate that these conditions will adversely impact the ability of commercial property owners to service their debt and refinance their loans as they mature. For more information, see risk factors set forth in our Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 24, 2021.

Counterparty Risk

The nature of our business requires us to hold our cash and cash equivalents with, and obtain financing from, various financial institutions. This exposes us to the risk that these financial institutions may not fulfill their obligations to us under these various contractual arrangements. We mitigate this exposure by depositing our cash and cash equivalents and entering into financing agreements with high credit-quality institutions.


The nature of our loans and other investments also exposes us to the risk that our counterparties do not make required interest and principal payments on scheduled due dates. We seek to manage this risk through a comprehensive credit analysis prior to making an investment and rigorous monitoring of the underlying collateral.collateral during the term of our investments.

CurrencyNon-Performance Risk

In addition to the risks related to fluctuations in cash flows and asset values associated with movements in interest rates, there is also the risk of non-performance on floating rate assets. In the case of a significant increase in interest rates, the additional debt service payments due from our borrowers may strain the operating cash flows of the collateral real estate assets and, potentially, contribute to non-performance or, in severe cases, default. This risk is partially mitigated by various factors we consider during our underwriting and loan structuring process, including but not limited to, requiring substantially all of our borrowers to purchase an interest rate cap contract for the term of our loan.

Loan Portfolio Value

We may in the future hold assets denominated in foreign currencies, which would expose usoriginate loans that earn a fixed rate of interest on unpaid principal balance. The value of fixed rate loans is sensitive to foreign currency risk. As a result, a change in foreign currency exchange rates may have an adverse impact on the valuation of our assets, as well as our income and distributions. Any such changes in foreign currency exchange rates may impact the measurement of such assets or income for the purposes of our REIT tests and may affect the amounts available for payment of dividends on our common stock.

However, our currency hedging strategies may not eliminategenerally hold all of our currency risk dueloans to among other things, uncertainties in the timing and/maturity, and do not expect to realize gains or amount of payments receivedlosses on the related investments and/or unequal, inaccurate or unavailability of hedges to perfectly offset changes in future exchange rates.

Accordingly, the notional values and expiration dates of our foreign currency hedges would approximate the amounts and timing ofmovements in market interest rates during future payments we expect to receive on the related investments.periods.

Real Estate Risk

The market values of commercial mortgage assets are subject to volatility and may be adversely affected by a number of factors, including, but not limited to, national, regional and local economic conditions (which may be adversely affected by industry slowdowns and other factors); local real estate conditions; changes or continued weakness in specific industry segments; construction quality, age and design; demographic factors; and retroactive changes to building or similar codes. In addition, decreases in property values reduce the value of the collateral and the potential proceeds available to a borrower to repay the underlying loans, which could also cause us to suffer losses. For more information regarding the impact that COVID-19 has had on these risks, see risk factors set forth in our Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 24, 2021.

Currency Risk

We may in the future hold assets denominated in foreign currencies, which would expose us to foreign currency risk. As a result, a change in foreign currency exchange rates may have an adverse impact on the valuation of our assets, as well as our income and distributions. Any such changes in foreign currency exchange rates may impact the measurement of such assets or income for the purposes of our REIT tests and may affect the amounts available for payment of dividends on our common stock.

We intend to hedge any currency exposures in a prudent manner. However, our currency hedging strategies may not eliminate all of our currency risk due to, among other things, uncertainties in the timing and/or amount of payments received on the related investments and/or unequal, inaccurate or unavailability of hedges to perfectly offset changes in future exchange rates. Additionally, we may be required under certain circumstances to collateralize our currency hedges for the benefit of the hedge counterparty, which could adversely affect our liquidity.

We may hedge foreign currency exposure on certain investments in the future by entering into a series of forwards to fix the U.S. dollar amount of foreign currency denominated cash flows (interest income, rental income and principal payments) we expect to receive from any foreign currency denominated investments. Accordingly, the notional values and expiration dates of our foreign currency hedges would approximate the amounts and timing of future payments we expect to receive on the related investments.


Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures.We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive OfficerPresident (Principal Executive Officer) and Chief Financial Officer (Principal Financial Officer), to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

As required by Rules 13a-15(b) and 15d-15(b) ofunder the Exchange Act, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive OfficerPresident (Principal Executive Officer) and Chief Financial Officer (Principal Financial Officer), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2017.March 31, 2021. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive OfficerPresident (Principal Executive Officer) and Chief Financial Officer (Principal Financial Officer) concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level as of September 30, 2017.March 31, 2021.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the most recently completed fiscal quarter to which this report relates that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.


PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

From time to time, we may be involved in various claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. As of September 30, 2017,March 31, 2021, we were not involved in any material legal proceedings. See the “Litigation” section of Note 1315 to the consolidated financial statementsConsolidated Financial Statements included in this Form 10-Q for information regarding legal proceedings, which information is incorporated by reference in this Item 1.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

ForThe following risk factors should be read in conjunction with the risk factors set forth in our Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 24, 2021.

We may enter into hedging transactions that could expose us to contingent liabilities in the future and adversely impact our financial condition.

Subject to maintaining our qualification as a discussionREIT, we may enter into hedging transactions that could require us to fund cash payments in certain circumstances (e.g., the early termination of our potential risks and uncertainties, see the informationhedging instrument caused by an event of default or other early termination event, or the decision by a counterparty to request margin securities it is contractually owed under the heading “Risk Factors”terms of the hedging instrument). The amount due would be equal to the unrealized loss of the open swap positions with the respective counterparty and could also include other fees and charges. Any such economic losses will be reflected in the Prospectus. There have been no material changes to our principal risks that we believe are material to our business, results of operations, and our ability to fund these obligations will depend on the liquidity of our assets and access to capital at the time, and the need to fund these obligations could adversely impact our financial condition fromcondition.

In addition, certain of the risk factors previously disclosedhedging instruments that we may enter into could involve risks since they often are not traded on regulated exchanges, guaranteed by an exchange or its clearing house, or regulated by any U.S. or foreign governmental authorities. We cannot assure that a liquid secondary market will exist for hedging instruments that we may purchase or sell in the Prospectus,future, and we may be required to maintain a position until exercise or expiration, which could result in significant losses.

In addition, subject to maintaining our qualification as a REIT, we may pursue various hedging strategies to seek to reduce our exposure to adverse changes in interest rates. We may fail to recalculate, readjust and execute hedges in an efficient manner.

While we may enter into such transactions seeking to reduce interest rate risks, unanticipated changes in interest rates may result in poorer overall investment performance than if we had not engaged in any such hedging transactions. In addition, the degree of correlation between price movements of the instruments used in a hedging strategy and price movements in the portfolio positions or liabilities being hedged may vary materially. Moreover, for a variety of reasons, we may not seek to establish a perfect correlation between such hedging instruments and the portfolio positions or liabilities being hedged. Any such imperfect correlation may prevent us from achieving the intended hedge and expose us to risk of loss.

Furthermore, we intend to record any derivative and hedging transactions we enter into in accordance with GAAP. However, we may choose not to pursue, or fail to qualify for, hedge accounting treatment relating to such derivative instruments. As a result, our operating results may suffer because any losses on these derivative instruments may not be offset by a change in the fair value of the related hedged transaction or item.

Changes to, or the elimination of, LIBOR may adversely affect our interest income, interest expense, or both.

On March 5, 2021, the Financial Conduct Authority of the U.K. (the “FCA”), which regulates LIBOR, announced (the “FCA Announcement”) that all LIBOR tenors relevant to us will cease to be published or will no longer be representative after June 30, 2023. The FCA Announcement coincides with the March 5, 2021 announcement of LIBOR’s administrator, the ICE Benchmark Administration Limited (the “IBA”), indicating that, as a result of not having access to input data necessary to calculate LIBOR tenors relevant to us on a representative basis after June 30, 2023, the IBA would have to cease publication of such LIBOR tenors immediately after the last publication on June 30, 2023. These announcements mean that any of our assets or liabilities with interest rates tied to LIBOR that extend beyond June 30, 2023 will need to be converted to a replacement rate. In the United States, the Alternative Reference Rates Committee (the “ARRC”), a committee of private sector entities with ex-officio official sector members convened by the Federal Reserve Board and the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, has confirmed that, in its opinion, the March 5, 2021 announcements by the IBA and the FCA on future cessation and loss of representativeness of the LIBOR benchmarks constituted a “Benchmark Transition Event” with respect to all U.S. Dollar LIBOR settings and has recommended the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) plus a recommended spread adjustment as LIBOR’s replacement.


There are significant differences between LIBOR and SOFR, such as LIBOR being an unsecured lending rate while SOFR is accessiblea secured lending rate, and SOFR is an overnight rate while LIBOR reflects term rates at different maturities. If our LIBOR-based borrowings are converted to SOFR, the differences between LIBOR and SOFR, plus the recommended spread adjustment, could result in higher interest costs for us, which could have a material adverse effect on our operating results. Although SOFR is the SEC’s websiteARRC’s recommended replacement rate, it is also possible that lenders may instead choose alternative replacement rates that may differ from LIBOR in ways similar to SOFR or in other ways that would result in higher interest costs for us. In addition, the elimination of LIBOR and/or changes to another index could result in mismatches with the interest rate of investments that we are financing, and the overall financial markets may be disrupted as a result of the phase-out or replacement of LIBOR; however, we cannot reasonably estimate the impact of the transition at www.sec.gov.this time. The transition from LIBOR to SOFR or other alternative reference rates may also introduce operational risks in our accounting, financial reporting, loan servicing, liability management and other aspects of our business.

(b) Initial Public Offering

On July 25, 2017, we completed our initial public offering in which we sold 11,000,000 shares of our common stock at an initial public offering price of $20.00 per share. The shares offered and sold in the initial public offering were registered under the Securities Act pursuant to our Registration Statement on Form S-11 (File No. 333-217446), which was declared effective by the SEC on July 19, 2017. The aggregate offering price for the shares registered and sold by us was approximately $220 million. The initial public offering generated $200.1 million in net proceeds, after deducting underwriting discounts of $13.2 million and estimated offering expenses payable by us of $6.7 million. On August 17, 2017, the underwriters of the Company’s initial public offering partially exercised their option to purchase up to an additional 1,650,000 shares of common stock. On August 22, 2017, we issued and sold, and the underwriters purchased, 650,000 shares of common stock for net proceeds of approximately $12.2 million, after deducting underwriting discounts of $0.8 million. The underwriters of the offering were Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated, Citigroup Global Markets Inc., Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, Deutsche Bank Securities Inc., J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, Barclays Capital Inc., TPG Capital BD, LLC and JMP Securities LLC. TPG Capital BD, LLC, an underwriter in the offering, is an affiliate and received underwriting discounts of approximately $0.6 million. No other offering expenses were paid directly or indirectly to any of our directors or officers (or their associates), persons owning 10 percent or more of our common stock or any other affiliates.

We used the net proceeds from the offering to originate commercial mortgage loans consistent with our investment strategy and investment guidelines.
