Description of Business | |
Description of Business | Note 1 — Description of Business Arbor Realty Trust, Inc. (“we,” “us,” or “our”) is a Maryland corporation formed in 2003. We operate through two business segments: our Structured Loan Origination and Investment Business ("Structured Business”) and our Agency Loan Origination and Servicing Business ("Agency Business”). Through our Structured Business, we invest in a diversified portfolio of structured finance assets in the multifamily and commercial real estate markets, primarily consisting of bridge and mezzanine loans, including junior participating interests in first mortgages, preferred and direct equity. We may also directly acquire real property and invest in real estate-related notes and certain mortgage-related securities. Through our Agency Business, we originate, sell and service a range of multifamily finance products through the Federal National Mortgage Association ("Fannie Mae") and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation ("Freddie Mac," and together with Fannie Mae, the government-sponsored enterprises, or the "GSEs"), the Government National Mortgage Association ("Ginnie Mae"), Federal Housing Authority ("FHA") and the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (together with Ginnie Mae and FHA, "HUD") and conduit/commercial mortgage-backed securities ("CMBS") programs. We retain the servicing rights and asset management responsibilities on substantially all loans we originate and sell under the GSE and HUD programs. We are an approved Fannie Mae Delegated Underwriting and Servicing ("DUS") lender nationally, a Freddie Mac Multifamily Conventional Loan lender, seller/servicer, in New York, New Jersey and Connecticut, a Freddie Mac affordable, manufactured housing, senior housing and small balance loan ("SBL") lender, seller/servicer, nationally and a HUD MAP and LEAN senior housing/healthcare lender nationally. Substantially all of our operations are conducted through our operating partnership, Arbor Realty Limited Partnership (“ARLP”), for which we serve as the general partner, and ARLP’s subsidiaries. We are organized to qualify as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Certain of our assets that produce non-qualifying income, primarily within the Agency Business, are operated through taxable REIT subsidiaries (“TRS”), which is part of our TRS consolidated group (the “TRS Consolidated Group”) and is subject to U.S. federal, state and local income taxes. See Note 17 – Income Taxes for details. |

Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies | |
Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies | Note 2 — Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Presentation Our interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”), for interim financial statements and the instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the consolidated financial statements prepared under GAAP have been condensed or omitted. In our opinion, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of our financial position, results of operations and cash flows have been included and are of a normal and recurring nature. 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 financial statements should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and notes thereto included in our 2018 Annual Report. Principles of Consolidation These consolidated financial statements include our financial statements and the financial statements of our wholly owned subsidiaries, partnerships and other joint ventures in which we own a controlling interest, including variable interest entities (“VIEs”) of which we are the primary beneficiary. Entities in which we have a significant influence are accounted for under the equity method. See Note 15 – Variable Interest Entities for information about our VIEs. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that could materially affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant Accounting Policies See Item 8 — Financial Statements and Supplementary Data in our 2018 Annual Report for a description of our significant accounting policies. Upon the adoption of Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) in the first quarter of 2019, we adopted the following significant accounting policy: Leases. We determine if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term is recorded as operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease are recorded as lease liabilities. The operating lease ROU assets and lease liabilities are included in other assets and other liabilities, respectively, in our consolidated balance sheets. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. Our leases do not provide an implicit rate; therefore, we use our incremental borrowing rate in determining the present value of lease payments. Our lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. At the adoption date, we made an accounting policy election to exclude leases with an initial term of twelve months or less. Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements Description Adoption Date Effect on Financial Statements In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). This ASU requires lessees to record most leases on their balance sheet through operating and finance lease liabilities and corresponding ROU assets, as well as adding additional footnote disclosures of key information about those arrangements. In July 2018, the FASB also issued ASU 2018-11, Leases (Topic 842) - Targeted Improvements, which provides transition relief on comparative period reporting through a cumulative-effect adjustment at the beginning of the period of adoption ("Effective Date Method"). First quarter of 2019 We adopted this guidance using the optional Effective Date Method and elected the group of optional practical expedients, therefore, comparative reporting periods have not been adjusted and are reported under the previous accounting guidance. Upon adoption, we recorded an operating lease ROU asset and corresponding lease liability of $20.1 million, which are included as other assets and other liabilities in our consolidated balance sheets. In addition, we added the required footnote disclosures in Note 14 - Commitments and Contingencies. In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-07, Compensation—Stock Compensation to expand the scope of ASC Topic 718, Compensation—Stock Compensation, to include share-based payment transactions for acquiring goods and services from nonemployees. First quarter of 2019 The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-12, Derivatives and Hedging: Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities. This ASU better aligns risk management activities and financial reporting for hedging relationships through changes to both the designation and measurement guidance for qualifying hedging relationships and the presentation of hedge results. Among other amendments, the update allows entities to designate the variability in cash flows attributable to changes in a contractually specified component stated in the contract as the hedged risk in a cash flow hedge of a forecasted purchase or sale of a nonfinancial asset. First quarter of 2019 The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. We will apply this guidance to any future hedging activities. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. This ASU requires the measurement of all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Entities will be required to use forward-looking information to better form their credit loss estimates. This ASU also requires enhanced disclosures to help financial statement users better understand significant estimates and judgments used in estimating credit losses. First quarter of 2020 with early adoption permitted beginning in the first quarter of 2019 We are evaluating the impact this guidance may have on our consolidated financial statements and we do not expect to early adopt. However, this guidance will impact our credit losses on loans and debt secutities, including loans sold to certain GSEs. |

Certain loans and investments that require an additional rate of interest “Accrual Rate” to be paid at maturity are not included in the weighted average pay rate as shown in the table. (2) The “First Dollar Loan-to-Value (“LTV”) Ratio” is calculated by comparing the total of our senior most dollar and all senior lien positions within the capital stack to the fair value of the underlying collateral to determine the point at which we will absorb a total loss of our position. (3) The “Last Dollar LTV Ratio” is calculated by comparing the total of the carrying value of our loan and all senior lien positions within the capital stack to the fair value of the underlying collateral to determine the point at which we will initially absorb a loss. Concentration of Credit Risk We are subject to concentration risk in that, at March 31, 2019, the UPB related to 29 loans with five different borrowers represented 19% of total assets. At December 31, 2018, the UPB related to 45 loans with five different borrowers represented 22% of total assets. During both the three months ended March 31, 2019 and the year ended December 31, 2018, no single loan or investment represented more than 10% of our total assets and no single investor group generated over 10% of our revenue. For details on our concentration of related party loans and investments, see Note 18—Agreements and Transactions with Related Parties. We assign a credit risk rating of pass, pass/watch, special mention, substandard or doubtful to each loan and investment, with a pass rating being the lowest risk and a doubtful rating being the highest risk. Each credit risk rating has benchmark guidelines that pertain to debt-service coverage ratios, LTV ratios, borrower strength, asset quality, and funded cash reserves. Other factors such as guarantees, market strength, and remaining loan term and borrower equity are also reviewed and factored into determining the credit risk rating assigned to each loan. This metric provides a helpful snapshot of portfolio quality and credit risk. All portfolio assets are subject to, at a minimum, a thorough quarterly financial evaluation in which historical operating performance and forward-looking projections are reviewed, however, we maintain a higher level of scrutiny and focus on loans that we consider “high risk” and that possess deteriorating credit quality. Generally speaking, given our typical loan profile, risk ratings of pass, pass/watch and special mention suggest that we expect the loan to make both principal and interest payments according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement, and is not considered impaired. A risk rating of substandard indicates we anticipate the loan may require a modification of some kind. A risk rating of doubtful indicates we expect the loan to underperform over its term, and there could be loss of interest and/or principal. Further, while the above are the primary guidelines used in determining a certain risk rating, subjective items such as borrower strength, market strength or asset quality may result in a rating that is higher or lower than might be indicated by any risk rating matrix. As a result of the loan review process, at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, we identified eight loans and investments that we consider higher-risk loans that had a carrying value, before loan loss reserves, of $128.3 million and $128.7 million, respectively, and a weighted average last dollar LTV ratio of 99% for both periods.

No other states represented 10% or more of the total loan and investment portfolio. Impaired Loans and Allowance for Loan Losses A summary of the changes in the allowance for loan losses is as follows (in thousands): Three Months Ended March 31, 2019 2018 Allowance at beginning of period $ 71,069 $ 62,783 Provision for loan losses — 325 Allowance at end of period $ 71,069 $ 63,108 The ratio of net recoveries to the average loans and investments outstanding was de minimus for the three months ended March 31, 2018. There were no loans for which the fair value of the collateral securing the loan was less than the carrying value of the loan for which we had not recorded a provision for loan loss as of March 31, 2019 and 2018. We have six loans with a carrying value totaling $120.9 million at March 31, 2019 that are collateralized by a land development project that are scheduled to mature in September 2019. The loans do not carry a current pay rate of interest, but five of the loans with a carrying value totaling $111.5 million entitle us to a weighted average accrual rate of interest of 9.08%. In 2008, we suspended the recording of the accrual rate of interest on these loans, as they were impaired and we deemed the collection of this interest to be doubtful. At both March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, we had cumulative allowances for loan losses of $61.4 million related to these loans. The loans are subject to certain risks associated with a development project including, but not limited to, availability of construction financing, increases in projected construction costs, demand for the development's outputs upon completion of the project, and litigation risk. Additionally, these loans were not classified as non-performing as the borrower is in compliance with all of the terms and conditions of the loans.

At both March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, two loans with an aggregate net carrying value of $0.8 million, net of related loan loss reserves of $1.7 million, were classified as non-performing. Income from non-performing loans is generally recognized on a cash basis when it is received. Full income recognition will resume when the loan becomes contractually current and performance has recommenced. A summary of our non-performing loans by asset class is as follows (in thousands): March 31, 2019 December 31, 2018 Greater Than Greater Than Carrying Less Than 90 90 Days Past Carrying Less Than 90 90 Days Past Asset Class Value Days Past Due Due Value Days Past Due Due Commercial $ 1,700 $ — $ 1,700 $ 1,700 $ — $ 1,700 Office 832 — 832 832 — 832 Total $ 2,532 $ — $ 2,532 $ 2,532 $ — $ 2,532 At both March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, there were no loans contractually past due 90 days or more that were still accruing interest. There were no loan modifications, refinancing's and/or extensions during both the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 that were considered troubled debt restructurings. Given the transitional nature of some of our real estate loans, we may require funds to be placed into an interest reserve, based on contractual requirements, to cover debt service costs. At March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, we had total interest reserves of $50.7 million and $48.9 million, respectively, on 122 loans and 110 loans, respectively, with an aggregate UPB of $2.22 billion for both periods. |

The debt carrying value for the Agency Business at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 was net of unamortized deferred finance costs of $0.2 million and $0.1 million, respectively. (2) As of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, this facility was collateralized by CLO bonds retained by us with a principal balance for both periods of $114.2 million, B Piece bonds with a carrying value of $76.0 million and $76.4 million, respectively , and SFR bonds with a carrying value of $10.0 million at March 31, 2019.

(4) This facility includes an accordion feature to increase the committed amount to $750.0 million, which is available through the maturity date. (5) The committed amount under the facility was temporarily increased $150.0 million to $250.0 million, which expired in January 2019. Structured Business At March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the weighted average interest rate for the credit facilities and repurchase agreements of our Structured Business, including certain fees and costs, such as structuring, commitment, non-use and warehousing fees, was 4.95% and 5.07%, respectively. The leverage on our loan and investment portfolio financed through our credit facilities and repurchase agreements, excluding the securities repurchase facilities, working capital facility and the master security agreements used to finance leasehold and capital expenditure improvements at our corporate office, was 70% at both March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018. In March 2019, we amended our $300.0 million repurchase agreement permanently increasing the committed amount by $100.0 million to $400.0 million. In March 2019, we entered into a $150.0 million repurchase agreement that bears interest at a rate of 195 basis points over LIBOR and matures in March 2020, with three one-year extension options, which is used to finance loans. In April 2019, we amended our $50.0 million credit facility extending the maturity date to April 2020, with two one-year extensions, subject to certain conditions. Agency Business In January 2019, we amended our $150.0 million credit facility reducing the interest rate 10 basis points to 120 basis points over LIBOR and extending the maturity to January 2020. Collateralized Loan Obligations (“CLOs”) We account for CLO transactions on our consolidated balance sheet as financing facilities. Our CLOs are VIEs for which we are the primary beneficiary and are consolidated in our financial statements. The investment grade tranches are treated as secured financings, and are non-recourse to us.

(4) Represents restricted cash held for principal repayments as well as for reinvestment in the CLOs. Does not include restricted cash related to interest payments, delayed fundings and expenses. Luxembourg Debt Fund In 2017, we formed a $100.0 million Luxembourg commercial real estate debt fund ("Debt Fund") and issued $70.0 million of floating rate notes to third-party investors which bear an initial interest rate of 4.15% over LIBOR. The notes mature in 2025 and we retained a $30.0 million equity interest in the Debt Fund. The Debt Fund is a VIE for which we are the primary beneficiary and is consolidated in our financial statements. The Debt Fund is secured by a portfolio of loan obligations and cash with a face value of $100.0 million, which includes first mortgage bridge loans, senior and subordinate participation interests in first mortgage bridge loans and participation interests in mezzanine loans. The Debt Fund allows, for a period of three years, principal proceeds from portfolio assets to be reinvested in qualifying replacement assets, subject to certain conditions.

Excludes restricted cash related to interest payments, delayed fundings and expenses. Senior Unsecured Notes In March 2019, we issued $90.0 million aggregate principal amount of 5.75% senior unsecured notes due in April 2024 (the "5.75% Notes") in a private placement. We received proceeds of $88.2 million from the issuances, after deducting the underwriting discount and other offering expenses. We used the net proceeds to make investments and for general corporate purposes. The 5.75% Notes are unsecured and can be redeemed by us at any time prior to April 1, 2024, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the aggregate principal amount, plus a "make-whole" premium and accrued and unpaid interest. We have the right to redeem the 5.75% Notes on or after April 1, 2024, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the aggregate principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest. The interest is paid semiannually in April and October starting in October 2019. At March 31, 2019, the debt carrying value of the 5.75% Notes was $88.4 million, which was net of $1.6 million of deferred financing fees. At March 31, 2019, the weighted average note rate was 6.11%, including certain fees and costs. In March 2018, we issued $100.0 million aggregate principal amount of 5.625% senior unsecured notes due in May 2023 (the "Initial Notes") in a private placement, and, in May 2018, we issued an additional $25.0 million (the "Reopened Notes" and, together with the Initial Notes, the "5.625% Notes,") which brought the aggregate outstanding principal amount to $125.0 million. The Reopened Notes are fully fungible with, and rank equally in right of payment with the Initial Notes. We received total proceeds of $122.3 million from the issuances, after deducting the underwriting discount and other offering expenses. We used the net proceeds from the Initial Notes to fully redeem our 7.375% senior unsecured notes due in 2021 (the “7.375% Notes") totaling $97.9 million and the net proceeds from the Reopened Notes to make investments and for general corporate purposes. The 5.625% Notes are unsecured and can be redeemed by us at any time prior to April 1, 2023, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the aggregate principal amount, plus a "make-whole" premium and accrued and unpaid interest. We have the right to redeem the 5.625% Notes on or after April 1, 2023, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the aggregate principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest. The interest is paid semiannually in May and November. At March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the debt carrying value of the 5.625% Notes was $122.6 million and $122.5 million, respectively, which was net of $2.4 million and $2.5 million, respectively, of deferred financing fees. At both March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the weighted average note rate was 6.08 %, including certain fees and costs. Convertible Senior Unsecured Notes In July 2018, we issued $264.5 million in aggregate principal amount of 5.25% convertible senior notes (the "5.25% Convertible Notes”) through two separate private placement offerings, which included the exercised purchaser’s total over-allotment option of $34.5 million. The 5.25% Convertible Notes pay interest semiannually in arrears and are scheduled to mature in July 2021, unless earlier converted or repurchased by the holders pursuant to their terms. The initial conversion rates of the two offerings ($115.0 million issued on July 3, 2018 and $149.5 million issued on July 20, 2018) were 86.9943 shares and 77.8331 shares of common stock per $1,000 of principal, respectively, representing a conversion price of $11.50 per share and $12.85 per share of common stock, respectively. At March 31, 2019, the conversion rates of the two offerings ($115.0 million and $149.5 million) were 88.5037 shares and 79.1835 shares of common stock per $1,000 of principal, respectively, representing a conversion price of $11.30 per share and $12.63 per share of common stock, respectively. We received proceeds totaling $256.1 million from the offerings of our 5.25% Convertible Notes, net of the underwriter’s discount and fees, which is being amortized through interest expense over the life of such notes. We used the net proceeds from the issuance primarily for the initial exchange of $127.6 million of our 5.375% convertible senior unsecured notes (the “5.375% Convertible Notes”) and $99.8 million of our 6.50% convertible senior unsecured notes (the “6.50% Convertible Notes”) for a combination of $219.8 million in cash (which includes accrued interest) and 6,820,196 shares of our common stock. The remaining net proceeds were used for general corporate purposes. At March 31, 2019, there were $1.2 million and $0.1 million aggregate principal amounts remaining of our 5.375% Convertible Notes and 6.50% Convertible Notes, respectively. The initial conversion rates of the 5.375% Convertible Notes and 6.50% Convertible Notes were 107.7122 shares and 119.3033 shares, respectively, of common stock per $1,000 of principal, which represented a conversion price of $9.28 per share and $8.38 per share of common stock, respectively. At March 31, 2019, the 5.375% Convertible Notes and 6.50% Convertible Notes had conversion rates of 112.1621 shares and 127.2095 shares, respectively, of common stock per $1,000 of principal, which represented a conversion price of $8.92 per share and $7.86 per share of common stock, respectively. The 5.375% Convertible Notes and 6.50% Convertible Notes pay interest semiannually in arrears and have scheduled maturity dates in November 2020 and October 2019, respectively, unless earlier converted or repurchased by the holders pursuant to their terms. Since the closing stock price of our common stock on March 31, 2019 exceeded the conversion prices of our convertible notes, the if-converted value of the convertible notes exceeded their principal amounts by $21.7 million at March 31, 2019. Our convertible senior unsecured notes are not redeemable by us prior to their maturities and are convertible by the holder into, at our election, cash, shares of our common stock or a combination of both, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions and during specified periods. The conversion rates are subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of certain specified events and the holders may require us to repurchase all, or any portion, of their notes for cash equal to 100% of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if we undergo a fundamental change specified in the agreements. We intend to settle the principal balance of our convertible debt in cash and have not assumed share settlement of the principal balance for purposes of computing EPS. At the time of issuance, there was no precedent or policy that would indicate that we would settle the principal in shares or the conversion spread in cash. Accounting guidance requires that convertible debt instruments with cash settlement features, including partial cash settlement, account for the liability component and equity component (conversion feature) of the instrument separately. The initial value of the liability component reflects the present value of the discounted cash flows using the nonconvertible debt borrowing rate at the time of the issuance. The debt discount represents the difference between the proceeds received from the issuance and the initial carrying value of the liability component, which is accreted back to the notes principal amount through interest expense over the term of the notes, which was 2.25 years and 2.49 years at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, on a weighted average basis. The UPB, unamortized discount and net carrying amount of the liability and equity components of our convertible notes were as follows (in thousands): Liability Equity Component Component Unamortized Debt Unamortized Deferred Net Carrying Net Carrying Period UPB Discount Financing Fees Value Value March 31, 2019 $ 265,829 $ 7,328 $ 6,272 $ 252,229 $ 9,436 December 31, 2018 $ 270,057 $ 8,229 $ 7,060 $ 254,768 $ 9,436 During the three months ended March 31, 2019, we incurred interest expense on the notes totaling $5.2 million, of which $3.5 million, $0.8 million and $0.9 million related to the cash coupon, amortization of the deferred financing fees and of the debt discount, respectively. During the three months ended March 31, 2018, we incurred total interest expense on the notes of $4.9 million, of which $3.6 million, $0.7 million and $0.6 million related to the cash coupon, amortization of the deferred financing fees and of the debt discount, respectively. Including the amortization of the deferred financing fees and debt discount, our weighted average total cost of the notes was 7.45% per annum at both March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018. Junior Subordinated Notes The carrying value of borrowings under our junior subordinated notes were $140.4 million and $140.3 million at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, which is net of a deferred amount of $11.9 million and $12.0 million, respectively, (which is amortized into interest expense over the life of the notes) and deferred financing fees of $2.0 million and $2.1 million, respectively. These notes have maturities ranging from March 2034 through April 2037 and pay interest quarterly at a fixed or floating rate of interest based on LIBOR. The current weighted average note rate was 5.45% and 5.66% at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. Including certain fees and costs, the weighted average note rate was 5.54% and 5.75% at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. Debt Covenants Credit Facilities and Repurchase Agreements. The credit facilities and repurchase agreements contain various financial covenants, including, but not limited to, minimum liquidity requirements, minimum net worth requirements, as well as certain other debt service coverage ratios, debt to equity ratios and minimum servicing portfolio tests. We were in compliance with all financial covenants and restrictions at March 31, 2019. CLOs. Our CLO vehicles contain interest coverage and asset overcollateralization covenants that must be met as of the waterfall distribution date in order for us to receive such payments. If we fail these covenants in any of our CLOs, all cash flows from the applicable CLO would be diverted to repay principal and interest on the outstanding CLO bonds and we would not receive any residual payments until that CLO regained compliance with such tests. Our CLOs were in compliance with all such covenants as of March 31, 2019, as well as on the most recent determination dates in April 2019. In the event of a breach of the CLO covenants that could not be cured in the near-term, we would be required to fund our non-CLO expenses, including employee costs, distributions required to maintain our REIT status, debt costs, and other expenses with (i) cash on hand, (ii) income from any CLO not in breach of a covenant test, (iii) income from real property and loan assets, (iv) sale of assets, or (v) accessing the equity or debt capital markets, if available. We have the right to cure covenant breaches which would resume normal residual payments to us by purchasing non-performing loans out of the CLOs. However, we may not have sufficient liquidity available to do so at such time. A summary of our CLO compliance tests as of the most recent determination dates in April 2019 is as follows: Cash Flow Triggers CLO VI CLO VII CLO VIII CLO IX CLO X Overcollateralization (1) Current 129.87 % 129.03 % 129.03 % 134.68 % 126.98 % Limit 128.87 % 128.03 % 128.03 % 133.68 % 125.98 % Pass / Fail Pass Pass Pass Pass Pass Interest Coverage (2) Current 169.56 % 197.42 % 246.73 % 243.99 % 196.57 % Limit 120.00 % 120.00 % 120.00 % 120.00 % 120.00 % Pass / Fail Pass Pass Pass Pass Pass (1) The overcollateralization ratio divides the total principal balance of all collateral in the CLO by the total principal balance of the bonds associated with the applicable ratio. To the extent an asset is considered a defaulted security, the asset’s principal balance for purposes of the overcollateralization test is the lesser of the asset’s market value or the principal balance of the defaulted asset multiplied by the asset’s recovery rate which is determined by the rating agencies. Rating downgrades of CLO collateral will generally not have a direct impact on the principal balance of a CLO asset for purposes of calculating the CLO overcollateralization test unless the rating downgrade is below a significantly low threshold (e.g. CCC-) as defined in each CLO vehicle. (2) The interest coverage ratio divides interest income by interest expense for the classes senior to those retained by us. Our CLO overcollateralization ratios as of the determination dates subsequent to each quarter are as follows: Determination (1) CLO VI CLO VII CLO VIII CLO IX CLO X April 2019 129.87 % 129.03 % 129.03 % 134.68 % 126.98 % January 2019 129.87 % 129.03 % 129.03 % 134.68 % 126.98 % October 2018 129.87 % 129.03 % 129.03 % 134.68 % 126.98 % July 2018 129.87 % 129.03 % 129.03 % 134.68 % 126.98 % April 2018 129.87 % 129.03 % 129.03 % 134.69 % — (1) The table above represents the quarterly trend of our overcollateralization ratio, however, the CLO determination dates are monthly and we were in compliance with this test for all periods presented. The ratio will fluctuate based on the performance of the underlying assets, transfers of assets into the CLOs prior to the expiration of their respective replenishment dates, purchase or disposal of other investments, and loan payoffs. No payment due under the junior subordinated indentures may be paid if there is a default under any senior debt and the senior lender has sent notice to the trustee. The junior subordinated indentures are also cross-defaulted with each other. |

Allowance for Loss-Sharing Obligations | Note 11 — Allowance for Loss-Sharing Obligations Our allowance for loss-sharing obligations related to the Fannie Mae DUS program is as follows (in thousands): Three Months Ended March 31, 2019 2018 Beginning balance $ 34,298 $ 30,511 Provisions for loss sharing 879 1,205 Provisions reversal for loan repayments (425) (732) (Charge-offs) recoveries, net (234) 113 Ending balance $ 34,518 $ 31,097 When we settle a loss under the DUS loss-sharing model, the net loss is charged-off against the previously recorded loss-sharing obligation. The settled loss is often net of any previously advanced principal and interest payments in accordance with the DUS program, which are reflected as reductions to the proceeds needed to settle losses. At both March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, we had outstanding advances of $0.1 million, which were netted against the allowance for loss-sharing obligations. At both March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, our allowance for loss-sharing obligations represented 0.25% of the Fannie Mae servicing portfolio. At March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the maximum quantifiable liability associated with our guarantees under the Fannie Mae DUS agreement was $2.49 billion and $2.46 billion, respectively. The maximum quantifiable liability is not representative of the actual loss we would incur. We would be liable for this amount only if all of the loans we service for Fannie Mae, for which we retain some risk of loss, were to default and all of the collateral underlying these loans was determined to be without value at the time of settlement. |

Derivative Financial Instruments | Note 12 — Derivative Financial Instruments A summary of our non-qualifying derivative financial instruments held by our Agency Business is as follows ($ in thousands): March 31, 2019 Fair Value Notional Balance Sheet Derivative Derivative Derivative Count Value Location Assets Liabilities Rate Lock Commitments 4 $ 19,211 Other Assets/Other Liabilities $ 400 $ (6) Forward Sale Commitments 50 242,134 Other Assets/Other Liabilities 2,668 (70) $ 261,345 $ 3,068 $ (76) December 31, 2018 Rate Lock Commitments 4 $ 18,161 Other Assets/Other Liabilities $ 324 $ (95) Forward Sale Commitments 90 491,125 Other Assets/Other Liabilities 5,789 (637) $ 509,286 $ 6,113 $ (732) We enter into contractual commitments to originate and sell mortgage loans at fixed prices with fixed expiration dates. The commitments become effective when the borrower “rate locks” a specified interest rate within time frames established by us. All potential borrowers are evaluated for creditworthiness prior to the extension of the commitment. Market risk arises if interest rates move adversely between the time of the rate lock by the borrower and the sale date of the loan to an investor. To mitigate the effect of the interest rate risk inherent in providing rate lock commitments to borrowers, we enter into a forward sale commitment with the investor simultaneous with the rate lock commitment with the borrower. The forward sale contract locks in an interest rate and price for the sale of the loan. The terms of the contract with the investor and the rate lock with the borrower are matched in substantially all respects, with the objective of eliminating interest rate risk to the extent practical. Sale commitments with the investors have an expiration date that is longer than our related commitments to the borrower to allow, among other things, for closing of the loan and processing of paperwork to deliver the loan into the sale commitment. These commitments meet the definition of a derivative and are recorded at fair value, including the effects of interest rate movements which are reflected as a component of other income, net in the consolidated statements of income. The estimated fair value of rate lock commitments also includes the fair value of the expected net cash flows associated with the servicing of the loan which is recorded as income from MSRs in the consolidated statements of income. During the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, we recorded a net loss of $2.5 million and net gains of $2.6 million, respectively, from changes in the fair value of these derivatives in other income, net and $14.2 million and $19.6 million, respectively, of income from MSRs. |

Fair Value | Note 13 — Fair Value Fair value estimates are dependent upon subjective assumptions and involve significant uncertainties resulting in variability in estimates with changes in assumptions. The following table summarizes the principal amounts, carrying values and the estimated fair values of our financial instruments (in thousands): March 31, 2019 December 31, 2018 Principal / Carrying Estimated Principal / Carrying Estimated Notional Amount Value Fair Value Notional Amount Value Fair Value Financial assets: Loans and investments, net $ 3,406,776 $ 3,323,778 $ 3,356,603 $ 3,283,342 $ 3,200,145 $ 3,249,499 Loans held-for-sale, net 222,923 225,878 229,947 472,964 481,664 489,546 Capitalized mortgage servicing rights, net n/a 277,639 327,793 n/a 273,770 322,463 Securities held-to-maturity, net 111,994 86,036 89,837 103,515 76,363 79,097 Derivative financial instruments 205,495 3,068 3,068 400,661 6,113 6,113 Financial liabilities: Credit and repurchase facilities $ 1,034,934 $ 1,032,495 $ 1,032,111 $ 1,138,135 $ 1,135,627 $ 1,135,774 Collateralized loan obligations 1,609,524 1,594,970 1,607,481 1,609,524 1,593,548 1,588,989 Debt fund 70,000 68,304 70,155 70,000 68,183 70,154 Senior unsecured notes 215,000 211,001 214,438 125,000 122,484 123,750 Convertible senior unsecured notes, net 265,829 252,229 289,382 270,057 254,768 267,324 Junior subordinated notes 154,336 140,434 96,328 154,336 140,259 95,873 Derivative financial instruments 55,850 76 76 108,625 732 732 Assets and liabilities disclosed at fair value are categorized based upon the level of judgment associated with the inputs used to measure their fair value. Hierarchical levels directly related to the amount of subjectivity associated with the inputs to fair valuation of these assets and liabilities are as follows: Level 1—Inputs are unadjusted and quoted prices exist in active markets for identical assets or liabilities, such as government, agency and equity securities. Level 2—Inputs (other than quoted prices included in Level 1) are observable for the asset or liability through correlation with market data. Level 2 inputs may include quoted market prices for a similar asset or liability, interest rates and credit risk. Examples include non-government securities, certain mortgage and asset-backed securities, certain corporate debt and certain derivative instruments. Level 3—Inputs reflect our best estimate of what market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability and are based on significant unobservable inputs that require a considerable amount of judgment and assumptions. Examples include certain mortgage and asset-backed securities, certain corporate debt and certain derivative instruments. Determining which category an asset or liability falls within the hierarchy requires significant judgment and we evaluate our hierarchy disclosures each quarter. The following is a description of the valuation techniques used to measure fair value and the general classification of these instruments pursuant to the fair value hierarchy. Loans and investments, net. Fair values of loans and investments that are not impaired are estimated using Level 3 inputs based on direct capitalization rate and discounted cash flow methodologies using discount rates, which, in our opinion, best reflect current market interest rates that would be offered for loans with similar characteristics and credit quality. Fair values of impaired loans and investments are estimated using Level 3 inputs that require significant judgments, which include assumptions regarding discount rates, capitalization rates, creditworthiness of major tenants, occupancy rates, availability of financing, exit plans and other factors. Loans held-for-sale, net. Consists of originated loans that are generally transferred or sold within 60 days of loan funding, and are valued using pricing models that incorporate observable inputs from current market assumptions or a hypothetical securitization model utilizing observable market data from recent securitization spreads and observable pricing of loans with similar characteristics (Level 2). Fair value includes the fair value allocated to the associated future MSRs and is calculated pursuant to the valuation techniques described below for capitalized mortgage servicing rights, net (Level 3). Capitalized mortgage servicing rights, net. Fair values are estimated using Level 3 inputs based on discounted future net cash flow methodology. The fair value of MSRs carried at amortized cost are estimated using a process that involves the use of independent third-party valuation experts, supported by commercially available discounted cash flow models and analysis of current market data. The key inputs used in estimating fair value include the contractually specified servicing fees, prepayment speed of the underlying loans, discount rate, annual per loan cost to service loans, delinquency rates, late charges and other economic factors. Securities held-to-maturity, net. Fair values are approximated using Level 3 inputs based on current market quotes received from financial sources that trade such securities and are based on prevailing market data and, in some cases, are derived from third - party proprietary models based on well recognized financial principles and reasonable estimates about relevant future market conditions. Derivative financial instruments. The fair values of rate lock and forward sale commitments are estimated using valuation techniques, which include internally-developed models developed based on changes in the U.S. Treasury rate and other observable market data (Level 2). The fair value of rate lock commitments includes the fair value of the expected net cash flows associated with the servicing of the loans, see capitalized mortgage servicing rights, net above for details on the applicable valuation technique (Level 3). We also consider the impact of counterparty non-performance risk when measuring the fair value of these derivatives. Given the credit quality of our counterparties, the short duration of interest rate lock commitments and forward sale contracts, and our historical experience, the risk of nonperformance by our counterparties is not significant. Credit facilities and repurchase agreements. Fair values for credit facilities and repurchase agreements of the Structured Business are estimated at Level 3 using discounted cash flow methodology, using discount rates, which, in our opinion, best reflect current market interest rates for financing with similar characteristics and credit quality. The majority of our credit facilities and repurchase agreement for the Agency Business bear interest at rates that are similar to those available in the market currently and the fair values are estimated using Level 2 inputs. For these facilities, the fair values approximate their carrying values. Collateralized loan obligations, Debt Fund and junior subordinated notes. Fair values are estimated at Level 3 based on broker quotations, representing the discounted expected future cash flows at a yield that reflects current market interest rates and credit spreads. Senior unsecured notes. Fair values are estimated at Level 1 when current market quotes received from active markets are available. If quotes from active markets are unavailable, then the fair values are estimated at Level 2 utilizing current market quotes received from inactive markets. Convertible senior unsecured notes, net. Fair values are estimated at Level 2 based on current market quotes received from inactive markets. We measure certain financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value on a recurring basis. The fair values of these financial assets and liabilities were determined using the following input levels as of March 31, 2019 (in thousands): Fair Value Measurements Using Fair Carrying Value Hierarchy Value Fair Value Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Financial assets: Derivative financial instruments $ 3,068 $ 3,068 $ — $ 2,668 $ 400 Financial liabilities: Derivative financial instruments $ 76 $ 76 $ — $ 76 $ — We measure certain financial and non-financial assets at fair value on a nonrecurring basis.

Loan impairment assessments. Loans held for investment are intended to be held to maturity and, accordingly, are carried at cost, net of unamortized loan origination costs and fees, loan purchase discounts, and net of the allowance for loan losses, when such loan or investment is deemed to be impaired. We consider a loan impaired when, based upon current information, it is probable that we will be unable to collect all amounts due for both principal and interest according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. We evaluate our loans to determine if the value of the underlying collateral securing the impaired loan is less than the net carrying value of the loan, which may result in an allowance and corresponding charge to the provision for loan losses. These valuations require significant judgments, which include assumptions regarding capitalization and discount rates, revenue growth rates, creditworthiness of major tenants, occupancy rates, availability of financing, exit plan and other factors. The table above and below includes all impaired loans, regardless of the period in which the impairment was recognized.

Commitments and Contingencies | Note 14 — Commitments and Contingencies Debt Obligations. Our debt obligations have maturities of $608.0 million for the remainder of 2019, $1.12 billion in 2020, $861.9 million in 2021, $259.0 million in 2022, $135.7 million in 2023, $90.0 million in 2024 and $278.3 million thereafter. Agency Business Commitments. Our Agency Business is subject to supervision by certain regulatory agencies. Among other things, these agencies require us to meet certain minimum net worth, operational liquidity and restricted liquidity collateral requirements, and compliance with reporting requirements. Our adjusted net worth and liquidity required by the agencies for all periods presented exceeded these requirements. As of March 31, 2019, we were required to maintain at least $13.6 million of liquid assets in one of our subsidiaries to meet our operational liquidity requirements for Fannie Mae and we had operational liquidity in excess of this requirement. We are generally required to share the risk of any losses associated with loans sold under the Fannie Mae DUS program and are required to secure this obligation by assigning restricted cash balances and/or a letter of credit to Fannie Mae. The amount of collateral required by Fannie Mae is a formulaic calculation at the loan level by a Fannie Mae assigned tier which considers the loan balance, risk level of the loan, age of the loan and level of risk-sharing. Fannie Mae requires restricted liquidity for Tier 2 loans of 75 basis points, 15 basis points for Tier 3 loans and 5 basis points for Tier 4 loans, which is funded over a 48-month period that begins upon delivery of the loan to Fannie Mae. A significant portion of our Fannie Mae DUS serviced loans for which we have risk sharing are Tier 2 loans. As of March 31, 2019, we met the restricted liquidity requirement with a $44.0 million letter of credit. As of March 31, 2019, reserve requirements for the Fannie Mae DUS loan portfolio will require us to fund $33.2 million in additional restricted liquidity over the next 48 months, assuming no further principal paydowns, prepayments, or defaults within our at-risk portfolio. Fannie Mae periodically reassesses these collateral requirements and may make changes to these requirements in the future. We generate sufficient cash flow from our operations to meet these capital standards and do not expect any changes to have a material impact on our future operations; however, future changes to collateral requirements may adversely impact our available cash. We are subject to various capital requirements in connection with seller/servicer agreements that we have entered into with secondary market investors. Failure to maintain minimum capital requirements could result in our inability to originate and service loans for the respective investor and, therefore, could have a direct material effect on our consolidated financial statements. As of March 31, 2019, we met all of Fannie Mae’s quarterly capital requirements and our Fannie Mae adjusted net worth was in excess of the required net worth. We are not subject to capital requirements on a quarterly basis for Ginnie Mae or FHA, as such requirements for these investors are only required on an annual basis. As an approved designated seller/servicer under Freddie Mac's SBL program, we are required to post collateral to ensure that we are able to meet certain purchase and loss obligations required by this program. Under the SBL program, we are required to post collateral equal to $5.0 million, which is satisfied with a $5.0 million letter of credit. We enter into contractual commitments with borrowers providing rate lock commitments while simultaneously entering into forward sale commitments with investors. These commitments are outstanding for short periods of time (generally less than 60 days) and are described in Note 12 -- Derivative Financial Instruments. Operating Leases . We have operating leases for office space and certain office equipment. Some of our leases include payment escalations throughout their lease terms. As of March 31, 2019, our leases had remaining lease terms of 0.3 -- 7.9 years with a weighted average remaining lease term of 5.5 years and a weighted average discount rate of 5.0%. We recorded lease expense of $1.5 million during the three months ended March 31, 2019. The maturities of our operating lease liabilities at March 31, 2019 are as follows (in thousands): Year 2019 (nine months ending December 31, 2019) $ 2020 2021 2022 2023 2024 Thereafter Total $ Unfunded Commitments. In accordance with certain structured loans and investments, we have outstanding unfunded commitments of $143.0 million as of March 31, 2019 that we are obligated to fund as borrowers meet certain requirements. Specific requirements include, but are not limited to, property renovations, building construction and conversions based on criteria met by the borrower in accordance with the loan agreements. Litigation. We are currently neither subject to any material litigation nor, to the best of our knowledge, threatened by any material litigation other than the following: In June 2011, three related lawsuits were filed by the Extended Stay Litigation Trust (the “Trust”), a post-bankruptcy litigation trust alleged to have standing to pursue claims that previously had been held by Extended Stay, Inc. and the Homestead Village L.L.C. family of companies (together “ESI”) (formerly Chapter 11 debtors, together the "Debtors") that have emerged from bankruptcy. Two of the lawsuits were filed in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York, and the third in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, New York County. There were 73 defendants in the three lawsuits, including 55 corporate and partnership entities and 18 individuals. A subsidiary of ours and certain other entities that are affiliates of ours are included as defendants. The New York State Court action has been removed to the Bankruptcy Court. Our affiliates filed a motion to dismiss the three lawsuits. The lawsuits all allege, as a factual basis and background certain facts surrounding the June 2007 leveraged buyout of ESI from affiliates of Blackstone Capital. Our subsidiary, Arbor ESH II, LLC, had a $115.0 million investment in the Series A1 Preferred Units of a holding company of Extended Stay, Inc. The New York State Court action and one of the two federal court actions name as defendants, Arbor ESH II, LLC, Arbor Commercial Mortgage, LLC ("ACM ") and ABT-ESI LLC, an entity in which we have a membership interest, among the broad group of defendants. These two actions were commenced by substantially identical complaints. The defendants are alleged in these complaints, among other things, to have breached fiduciary and contractual duties by causing or allowing the Debtors to pay illegal dividends or other improper distributions of value at a time when the Debtors were insolvent. These two complaints also allege that the defendants aided and abetted, induced, or participated in breaches of fiduciary duty, waste, and unjust enrichment (“Fiduciary Duty Claims”) and name a director of ours, and a former general counsel of ACM, each of whom had served on the Board of Directors of ESI for a period of time. We are defending these two defendants and paying the costs of such defense. On the basis of the foregoing allegations, the Trust has asserted claims under a number of common law theories, seeking the return of assets transferred by the Debtors prior to the Debtors' bankruptcy filing. In the third action, filed in Bankruptcy Court, the same plaintiff, the Trust, has named ACM and ABT-ESI LLC, together with a number of other defendants and asserts claims, including constructive and fraudulent conveyance claims under state and federal statutes, as well as a claim under the Federal Debt Collection Procedure Act. In June 2013, the Trust filed a motion to amend the lawsuits, to, among other things, (i) consolidate the lawsuits into one lawsuit, (ii) remove 47 defendants, none of whom are related to us, from the lawsuits so that there are 26 remaining defendants, including 16 corporate and partnership entities and 10 individuals, and (iii) reduce the counts within the lawsuits from over 100 down to 17. The remaining counts in the amended complaint against our affiliates are principally state law claims for breach of fiduciary duties, waste, unlawful dividends and unjust enrichment, and claims under the Bankruptcy Code for avoidance and recovery actions, among others. The bankruptcy court granted the motion and the amended complaint has been filed. The amended complaint seeks approximately $139.0 million in the aggregate, plus interest from the date of the alleged unlawful transfers, from director designees, portions of which are also sought from our affiliates as well as from unaffiliated defendants. We have moved to dismiss the referenced actions and intend to vigorously defend against the claims asserted therein. During a status conference held in March 2014, the Court heard oral argument on the motion to dismiss and adjourned the case pending a ruling. Subsequent to that hearing, a new judge was assigned to the case and, in November 2016, the new judge entered an order directing the parties to file supplemental briefs addressing new cases decided since the last round of briefing. Oral arguments regarding the motion to dismiss were heard at a hearing held in January 2017. The Court reserved decision at that hearing. We have not made a loss accrual for this litigation because we believe that it is not probable that a loss has been incurred and an amount cannot be reasonably estimated. Due to Borrowers. Due to borrowers represents borrowers’ funds held by us to fund certain expenditures or to be released at our discretion upon the occurrence of certain pre-specified events, and to serve as additional collateral for borrowers’ loans. While retained, these balances earn interest in accordance with the specific loan terms they are associated with. |

Variable Interest Entities | |
Variable Interest Entities | Note 15 — Variable Interest Entities Our involvement with VIEs primarily affects our financial performance and cash flows through amounts recorded in interest income, interest expense, provision for loan losses and through activity associated with our derivative instruments. Consolidated VIEs. We have determined that our operating partnership, ARLP, and our CLO and Debt Fund entities, which we consolidate, are VIEs. ARLP is already consolidated in our financial statements, therefore, the identification of this entity as a VIE had no impact on our consolidated financial statements. Our CLO and Debt Fund consolidated entities invest in real estate and real estate-related securities and are financed by the issuance of debt securities. We, or one of our affiliates, are named collateral manager, servicer, and special servicer for all collateral assets held in CLOs, which we believe gives us the power to direct the most significant economic activities of those entities. We also have exposure to losses to the extent of our equity interests and also have rights to waterfall payments in excess of required payments to bond investors. As a result of consolidation, equity interests have been eliminated, and the consolidated balance sheets reflect both the assets held and debt issued by the CLOs and Debt Fund to third parties. Our operating results and cash flows include the gross amounts related to CLO and Debt Fund assets and liabilities as opposed to our net economic interests in those entities. The assets and liabilities related to these consolidated CLOs and Debt Fund are as follows (in thousands): March 31, 2019 December 31, 2018 Assets: Restricted cash $ 291,574 $ 179,855 Loans and investments, net 1,893,585 2,001,617 Other assets 16,979 16,624 Total assets $ 2,202,138 $ 2,198,096 Liabilities: Collateralized loan obligations $ 1,594,970 $ 1,593,548 Debt fund 68,304 68,183 Other liabilities 3,992 3,408 Total liabilities $ 1,667,266 $ 1,665,139 Assets held by the CLOs and Debt Fund are restricted and can only be used to settle obligations of the CLOs and Debt Fund, respectively. The liabilities of the CLOs and Debt Fund are non-recourse to us and can only be satisfied from each respective asset pool. See Note 10—Debt Obligations for details. We are not obligated to provide, have not provided, and do not intend to provide financial support to any of the consolidated CLOs or Debt Fund. Unconsolidated VIEs. We determined that we are not the primary beneficiary of 29 VIEs in which we have a variable interest as of March 31, 2019 because we do not have the ability to direct the activities of the VIEs that most significantly impact each entity’s economic performance. A summary of our variable interests in identified VIEs, of which we are not the primary beneficiary, as of March 31, 2019 is as follows (in thousands): Type Carrying Amount (1) Loans $ 444,831 B Piece and SFR bonds 86,036 Equity investments 6,000 Agency interest only strips 3,145 Total $ 540,012 (1) Represents the carrying amount of loans and investments before reserves. At March 31, 2019, $129.6 million of loans to VIEs had corresponding loan loss reserves of $69.4 million. See Note 3 -- Loans and Investments for details. In addition, the maximum loss exposure as of March 31, 2019 would not exceed the carrying amount of our investment. These unconsolidated VIEs have exposure to real estate debt of approximately $4.30 billion at March 31, 2019. |

Equity | Note 16 — Equity Preferred Stock. As of March 31, 2019, the Series A, B and C preferred stock are redeemable by us. Common Stock. In December 2018, our Board of Directors declared a special dividend of $0.15 per common share, which was paid in a combination of $2.5 million of cash and 901,432 common shares in January 2019. During the three months ended March 31, 2019, we issued 210,466 shares in connection with the settlements of our 5.375% Convertible Notes. We have an “At-The-Market” equity offering sales agreement with JMP Securities LLC (“JMP,”) which entitles us to issue and sell up to 7,500,000 shares of our common stock through JMP. Sales of the shares are made by means of ordinary brokers’ transactions or otherwise at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, or at negotiated prices. During the first quarter of 2018, we sold 360,000 shares for net proceeds of $3.0 million. As of March 31, 2019, we had approximately 6,500,000 shares available under this agreement. As of March 31, 2019, we had $399.3 million available under our $500.0 million shelf registration statement that was declared effective by the SEC in June 2018. Noncontrolling Interest. Noncontrolling interest relates to the operating partnership units (“OP Units”) issued to satisfy a portion of the purchase price in connection with the acquisition of the agency platform of ACM in the third quarter of 2016 (the "Acquisition"). Each of these OP Units are paired with one share of our special voting preferred shares having a par value of $0.01 per share and is entitled to one vote each on any matter submitted for stockholder approval. The OP Units are entitled to receive distributions if and when our Board of Directors authorizes and declares common stock distributions. The OP Units are also redeemable for cash, or at our option, for shares of our common stock on a one-for-one basis. In the three months ended March 31, 2019, we redeemed 387,706 OP Units with a combination of cash totaling $1.6 million and 258,677 common shares. In addition, our Board of Directors declared a special dividend of $0.15 per common share in December 2018, which was paid to the OP Unit holders in a combination of $0.6 million of cash and 221,666 OP Units in January 2019. At March 31, 2019, there were 20,487,544 OP Units outstanding, which represented 19.2% of the voting power of our outstanding stock. Distributions. Dividends declared (on a per share basis) during the three months ended March 31, 2019 were as follows: Common Stock Preferred Stock Dividend (1) Declaration Date Dividend Declaration Date Series A Series B Series C February 13, 2019 $ 0.27 February 1, 2019 $ 0.515625 $ 0.484375 $ 0.53125 (1) The dividend declared on February 1, 2019 was for December 1, 2018 through February 28, 2019.

These amounts reflect dividends from March 1, 2019 through May 31, 2019 and are payable on May 31, 2019 to preferred stockholders of record on May 15, 2019. Deferred Compensation. In March 2019, we issued 326,192 shares of restricted common stock under the 2017 Amended Omnibus Stock Incentive Plan (the “2017 Plan”) to employees with a total grant date fair value of $4.1 million and recorded $1.4 million to employee compensation and benefits in our consolidated statements of income. One third of the shares vested as of the grant date, one third will vest in March 2020, and the remaining third will vest in March 2021. In March 2019, we also issued 55,244 shares of fully vested common stock to the independent members of the Board of Directors under the 2017 Plan and recorded $0.7 million to selling and administrative expense in our consolidated statements of income. During the first quarter of 2019, we issued 58,738 shares of restricted common stock to our chief executive officer under his 2017 annual incentive agreement with a grant date fair value of $0.7 million and recorded $0.2 million to employee compensation and benefits in our consolidated statements of income. One quarter of the shares vested as of the grant date and one quarter will vest on each of the first, second and third anniversaries of the grant date. Our chief executive officer was also granted up to 352,427 performance-based restricted stock units that vest at the end of a four-year performance period based on our achievement of certain total stockholder return objectives. The restricted stock units had a grant date fair value of $1.7 million and we recorded less than $0.1 million to employee compensation and benefits in our consolidated statements of income. During the three months ended March 31, 2019, 445,765 shares of previously granted performance-based restricted stock units fully vested, which were net settled for 203,492 common shares. Earnings Per Share (“EPS”). Basic EPS is calculated by dividing net income attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during each period inclusive of unvested restricted stock with full dividend participation rights. Diluted EPS is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding plus the additional dilutive effect of common stock equivalents during each period using the treasury stock method. Our common stock equivalents include the weighted average dilutive effect of performance-based restricted stock units granted to our chief executive officer, OP Units and convertible senior unsecured notes. A reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of our basic and diluted EPS computations ($ in thousands, except share and per share data) is as follows: Three Months Ended March 31, 2019 2018 Basic Diluted Basic Diluted Net income attributable to common stockholders (1) $ 22,650 $ 22,650 $ 26,189 $ 26,189 Net income attributable to noncontrolling interest (2) — 5,468 — 8,991 Net income attributable to common stockholders and noncontrolling interest $ 22,650 $ 28,118 $ 26,189 $ 35,180 Weighted average shares outstanding 85,151,878 85,151,878 61,842,336 61,842,336 Dilutive effect of OP Units (2) — 20,554,434 — 21,230,769 Dilutive effect of restricted stock units (3) — 1,376,514 — 1,261,382 Dilutive effect of convertible notes (4) — 786,685 — 365,248 Weighted average shares outstanding 85,151,878 107,869,511 61,842,336 84,699,735 Net income per common share (1) $ 0.27 $ 0.26 $ 0.42 $ 0.42 (1) Net of preferred stock dividends. (2) We consider OP Units to be common stock equivalents as the holders have voting rights, the right to distributions and the right to redeem the OP Units for the cash value of a corresponding number of shares of common stock or a corresponding number of shares of common stock, at our election. (3) Mr. Kaufman is granted restricted stock units annually, which vest at the end of a four-year performance period based upon our achievement of total stockholder return objectives. (4) The convertible senior unsecured notes impact diluted earnings per share if the average price of our common stock exceeds the conversion price, as calculated in accordance with the terms of the indenture. |

Income Taxes | Note 17 — Income Taxes As a REIT, we are generally not subject to U.S. federal income tax to the extent of our distributions to stockholders and as long as certain asset, income, distribution, ownership and administrative tests are met. To maintain our qualification as a REIT, we must annually distribute at least 90% of our REIT taxable income to our stockholders and meet certain other requirements. We may also be subject to certain state, local and franchise taxes. Under certain circumstances, federal income and excise taxes may be due on our undistributed taxable income. If we were to fail to meet these requirements, we would be subject to U.S. federal income tax, which could have a material adverse impact on our results of operations and amounts available for distributions to our stockholders. We believe that all of the criteria to maintain our REIT qualification have been met for the applicable periods, but there can be no assurance that these criteria will continue to be met in subsequent periods. The Agency Business is operated through our TRS Consolidated Group and is subject to U.S. federal, state and local income taxes. In general, our TRS entities may hold assets that the REIT cannot hold directly and may engage in real estate or non-real estate-related business. In the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, we recorded a tax benefit of less than $0.1 million and $8.8 million , respectively. The provision for income taxes recorded in the three months ended March 31, 2019 consisted of a deferred tax benefit of $4.2 million and a current tax provision of $4.2 million. The benefit from income taxes recorded in the three months ended March 31, 2018 consisted of a deferred tax benefit of $13.3 million and a current tax provision of $4.5 million. The deferred tax benefit in the three months ended March 31, 2018 was due primarily to our payoff in January 2018 of the $50.0 million preferred equity interest entered into with ACM to finance a portion of the Acquisition purchase price. Current and deferred taxes are primarily recorded on the portion of earnings (losses) recognized by us with respect to our interest in the TRS’s. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are calculated based on temporary differences between our U.S. GAAP consolidated financial statements and the federal, state, local tax basis of assets and liabilities as of the consolidated balance sheets. |

Agreements and Transactions with Related Parties | Note 18 — Agreements and Transactions with Related Parties Shared Services Agreement. We have a shared services agreement with ACM where we provide limited support services to ACM and they reimburse us for the costs of performing such services. During the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, we incurred $0.9 million and $0.3 million , respectively, of costs for services provided to ACM, which are included in due from related party on the consolidated balance sheets.

Interest income recorded from this loan totaled $0.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019. In January 2018, we paid $50.0 million in full satisfaction of the related party financing we entered into with ACM to finance a portion of the Acquisition purchase price. We incurred interest expense related to this financing of $0.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018. In 2017, we acquired a $32.8 million bridge loan originated by ACM. The loan was used to purchase several multifamily properties by a consortium of investors (which includes, among other unaffiliated investors, certain of our officers and our chief executive officer) which owns 90% of the borrowing entity.

We carry a maximum loss-sharing obligation with Fannie Mae on this loan of up to 5% of the original UPB. Servicing revenue recorded from this loan was less than $0.1 million for both the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018. In 2017, a consortium of investors (which includes, among other unaffiliated investors, our chief executive officer and ACM) invested $2.0 million for a 26.1% ownership interest in two portfolios of multifamily properties which has two bridge loans totaling $14.8 million originated by us in 2016.

In 2017, Ginkgo Investment Company LLC (“Ginkgo”), of which one of our directors is a 33% managing member, purchased a multifamily apartment complex which assumed an existing $8.3 million Fannie Mae loan that we service. Ginkgo subsequently sold the majority of its interest in this property and owned a 3.6% interest at March 31, 2019. We carry a maximum loss-sharing obligation with Fannie Mae on this loan of up to 20% of the original UPB. Upon the sale, we received a 1% loan assumption fee which was governed by existing loan agreements that were in place when the loan was originated in 2015, prior to such purchase. Servicing revenue recorded from this loan was less than $0.1 million for both the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018. In 2016, we originated $48.0 million of bridge loans on six multifamily properties owned in part by a consortium of investors (which includes, among other unaffiliated investors, certain of our officers and our chief executive officer) which owns interests ranging from 10.5% to 12.0% in the borrowing entities.

The loans have an interest rate of LIBOR plus 5% with a LIBOR floor of 0.25% and were scheduled to mature in October 2018. These loans both paid off in full during the third and four quarters of 2018. Interest income recorded from these loans totaled $0.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018. In 2015, we originated a $3.0 million mezzanine loan on a multifamily property that had a $47.0 million first mortgage initially originated by ACM. The loan bore interest at a fixed rate of 12.5% and was scheduled to mature in April 2025. In January 2018, this loan paid off in full. Interest income recorded from this loan totaled $0.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018. In 2015, we invested $9.6 million for 50% of ACM's indirect interest in a joint venture with a third-party that was formed to invest in a residential mortgage banking business. As a result of this transaction, we had an initial indirect interest of 22.5% in this entity. Since the initial investment, we invested an additional $16.1 million through this joint venture in non-qualified residential mortgages purchased from the mortgage banking business’s origination platform and we received cash distributions totaling $16.9 million (that were classified as returns of capital) as a result of the joint venture selling most of its non-qualified mortgage assets. We recorded income from these investments of $0.8 million and $0.1 million in the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively . In connection with a litigation settlement related to this investment, we provided a guaranty of up to 50% of any amounts payable in connection with the settlement. ACM has also provided us with a guaranty to pay up to 50% of any amounts we may pay under this guaranty. As of March 31, 2019, our maximum exposure under this guaranty totaled $1.6 million. We have not accrued this amount as we do not believe that we will be required to make any nonrefundable payments under this guaranty. See Note 8 – Investments in Equity Affiliates for details. In 2014, ACM purchased a property subject to two loans originated by us, a first mortgage of $14.6 million and a second mortgage of $5.1 million, both with maturity dates of April 2016 and an interest rate of LIBOR plus 4.8%. In 2016, the $5.1 million second mortgage was repaid in full and the $14.6 million first mortgage was extended to April 2018 and paid off at maturity. Interest income recorded from the first mortgage totaled $0.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018. We, along with an executive officer of ours and a consortium of independent outside investors, hold equity investments in a portfolio of multifamily properties referred to as the “Lexford” portfolio, which is managed by an entity owned primarily by a consortium of affiliated investors, including our chief executive officer and an executive officer of ours. Based on the terms of the management contract, the management company is entitled to 4.75% of gross revenues of the underlying properties, along with the potential to share in the proceeds of a sale or restructuring of the debt. In June 2018, the owners of Lexford restructured part of its debt and we originated twelve bridge loans totaling $280.5 million, which were used to repay in full certain existing mortgage debt and to renovate 72 multifamily properties included in the portfolio. The loans, which we originated in June 2018, have interest rates of LIBOR plus 4.0% and mature in June 2021 (with 2 one-year extension options). During the first quarter of 2019, the borrower made partial paydowns of principal totaling $54.6 million. Interest income recorded from these loans totaled $4.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019. Further, as part of this June 2018 restructuring, $50.0 million in unsecured financing was provided by an unsecured lender to certain parent entities of the property owners. ACM owns slightly less than half of the unsecured lender entity and, therefore, provided slightly less than half of the unsecured lender financing. In addition, in connection with our equity investment, we received distributions totaling $1.3 million and $0.6 million during the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively, which were recorded as income from equity affiliates. Separate from the loans we originated in June 2018, we provide limited ("bad boy") guarantees for certain other debt controlled by Lexford. The bad boy guarantees may become a liability for us upon standard "bad" acts such as fraud or a material misrepresentation by Lexford or us. At March 31, 2019, this debt had an aggregate outstanding balance of $379.8 million and is scheduled to mature between 2019 and 2025. Several of our executives, including our chief financial officer, general counsel and our chairman, chief executive officer and president, hold similar positions for ACM. Our chief executive officer and his affiliated entities (“the Kaufman Entities”) together beneficially own approximately 33% of the outstanding membership interests of ACM and certain of our employees and directors also hold an ownership interest in ACM. Furthermore, one of our directors serves as the trustee and co-trustee of two of the Kaufman Entities that hold membership interests in ACM. Upon the closing of the Acquisition in 2016, we issued OP Units, each paired with one share of our special voting preferred shares. At March 31, 2019, ACM holds 4,994,736 shares of our common stock and 14,772,918 OP Units, which represents 18.6% of the voting power of our outstanding stock. Our Board of Directors approved a resolution under our charter allowing our chief executive officer and ACM, (which our chief executive officer has a controlling equity interest in), to own more than the 5% ownership interest limit of our common stock as stated in our amended charter. |

Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies | |
Basis of Presentation | Basis of Presentation Our interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”), for interim financial statements and the instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the consolidated financial statements prepared under GAAP have been condensed or omitted. In our opinion, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of our financial position, results of operations and cash flows have been included and are of a normal and recurring nature. 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 financial statements should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and notes thereto included in our 2018 Annual Report. |
Principles of Consolidation | Principles of Consolidation These consolidated financial statements include our financial statements and the financial statements of our wholly owned subsidiaries, partnerships and other joint ventures in which we own a controlling interest, including variable interest entities (“VIEs”) of which we are the primary beneficiary. Entities in which we have a significant influence are accounted for under the equity method. See Note 15 – Variable Interest Entities for information about our VIEs. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. |
Use of Estimates | Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that could materially affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. |
Leases | Leases. We determine if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term is recorded as operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease are recorded as lease liabilities. The operating lease ROU assets and lease liabilities are included in other assets and other liabilities, respectively, in our consolidated balance sheets. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. Our leases do not provide an implicit rate; therefore, we use our incremental borrowing rate in determining the present value of lease payments. Our lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. At the adoption date, we made an accounting policy election to exclude leases with an initial term of twelve months or less. |
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements | Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements Description Adoption Date Effect on Financial Statements In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). This ASU requires lessees to record most leases on their balance sheet through operating and finance lease liabilities and corresponding ROU assets, as well as adding additional footnote disclosures of key information about those arrangements. In July 2018, the FASB also issued ASU 2018-11, Leases (Topic 842) - Targeted Improvements, which provides transition relief on comparative period reporting through a cumulative-effect adjustment at the beginning of the period of adoption ("Effective Date Method"). First quarter of 2019 We adopted this guidance using the optional Effective Date Method and elected the group of optional practical expedients, therefore, comparative reporting periods have not been adjusted and are reported under the previous accounting guidance. Upon adoption, we recorded an operating lease ROU asset and corresponding lease liability of $20.1 million, which are included as other assets and other liabilities in our consolidated balance sheets. In addition, we added the required footnote disclosures in Note 14 - Commitments and Contingencies. In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-07, Compensation—Stock Compensation to expand the scope of ASC Topic 718, Compensation—Stock Compensation, to include share-based payment transactions for acquiring goods and services from nonemployees. First quarter of 2019 The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-12, Derivatives and Hedging: Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities. This ASU better aligns risk management activities and financial reporting for hedging relationships through changes to both the designation and measurement guidance for qualifying hedging relationships and the presentation of hedge results. Among other amendments, the update allows entities to designate the variability in cash flows attributable to changes in a contractually specified component stated in the contract as the hedged risk in a cash flow hedge of a forecasted purchase or sale of a nonfinancial asset. First quarter of 2019 The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. We will apply this guidance to any future hedging activities. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. This ASU requires the measurement of all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Entities will be required to use forward-looking information to better form their credit loss estimates. This ASU also requires enhanced disclosures to help financial statement users better understand significant estimates and judgments used in estimating credit losses. First quarter of 2020 with early adoption permitted beginning in the first quarter of 2019 We are evaluating the impact this guidance may have on our consolidated financial statements and we do not expect to early adopt. However, this guidance will impact our credit losses on loans and debt secutities, including loans sold to certain GSEs. |

Summary of the company's CLO compliance tests as of the most recent determination dates | A summary of our CLO compliance tests as of the most recent determination dates in April 2019 is as follows: Cash Flow Triggers CLO VI CLO VII CLO VIII CLO IX CLO X Overcollateralization (1) Current 129.87 % 129.03 % 129.03 % 134.68 % 126.98 % Limit 128.87 % 128.03 % 128.03 % 133.68 % 125.98 % Pass / Fail Pass Pass Pass Pass Pass Interest Coverage (2) Current 169.56 % 197.42 % 246.73 % 243.99 % 196.57 % Limit 120.00 % 120.00 % 120.00 % 120.00 % 120.00 % Pass / Fail Pass Pass Pass Pass Pass (1) The overcollateralization ratio divides the total principal balance of all collateral in the CLO by the total principal balance of the bonds associated with the applicable ratio. To the extent an asset is considered a defaulted security, the asset’s principal balance for purposes of the overcollateralization test is the lesser of the asset’s market value or the principal balance of the defaulted asset multiplied by the asset’s recovery rate which is determined by the rating agencies. Rating downgrades of CLO collateral will generally not have a direct impact on the principal balance of a CLO asset for purposes of calculating the CLO overcollateralization test unless the rating downgrade is below a significantly low threshold (e.g. CCC-) as defined in each CLO vehicle. (2) The interest coverage ratio divides interest income by interest expense for the classes senior to those retained by us. |
