Organization and Description of Business [Abstract]
ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS	1. ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS Chicago Atlantic Real Estate Finance, Inc., and its wholly owned consolidated subsidiary, Chicago Atlantic Lincoln LLC (“CAL”) (collectively the “Company”, “we”, or “our”), is a commercial mortgage real estate investment trust (“REIT”) incorporated in the state of Maryland on March 30, 2021. The Company has elected to be taxed as a REIT for United States federal income tax purposes under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), commencing with its taxable year ended December 31, 2021. The Company generally will not be subject to United States federal income taxes on its REIT taxable income if it annually distributes to stockholders at least 90 % of its REIT taxable income prior to the deduction for dividends paid and complies with various other requirements as a REIT. The Company operates as one operating segment and its primary investment objective is to provide attractive, risk-adjusted returns for stockholders over time, primarily through consistent current income (dividends and distributions) and secondarily, through capital appreciation. The Company intends to achieve this objective by originating, structuring, and investing in first mortgage loans and alternative structured financings secured by commercial real estate properties. The Company’s loan portfolio is primarily comprised of senior loans to state-licensed operators in the cannabis industry, secured by real estate, equipment, receivables, licenses, and/or other assets of the borrowers to the extent permitted by applicable laws and regulations governing such borrowers. We also lend to and invest in companies or properties that are not related to the cannabis industry if they provide return characteristics consistent with our investment objective. The Company is externally managed by Chicago Atlantic REIT Manager, LLC (the “Manager”), a Delaware limited liability company, pursuant to the terms of the management agreement dated May 1, 2021, as amended in October 2021, by and among the Company and the Manager (the "Management Agreement"). The Management Agreement had a three-year initial term that expired on April 30, 2024. After the initial term, the management agreement is automatically renewed for one-year periods unless the Company or the Manager elects not to renew in accordance with the terms of the Management Agreement. On April 30, 2024, the Management Agreement was automatically renewed. The Manager conducts substantially all of the Company’s operations and provides asset management services for its real estate investments. For its services, the Manager is entitled to earn management fees and incentive compensation, both defined in and in accordance with the terms of the Management Agreement (Note 7). All of the Company’s investment decisions are made by the investment committee of the Manager, subject to oversight by the Company’s board of directors (the “Board”). The Manager is wholly-owned by Chicago Atlantic Group, LP. (the “Sponsor”).

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies [Abstract]
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES	2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes of the Company have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting and in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information, the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Our consolidated financial statements present the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows of Chicago Atlantic Real Estate Finance, Inc., and its wholly owned consolidated subsidiary, Chicago Atlantic Lincoln, LLC. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Accordingly, these financial statements may not contain all disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles. Reference should be made to Note 2 of the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2023. In the opinion of the Company, all normal recurring adjustments have been made that are necessary to the fair statement of the results of operations and financial position as of and for the periods presented. Operating results for the three-month period ended March 31, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2024. Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company’s cash held with financial institutions may at times exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insured limits. The Company and the Manager seek to manage this credit risk relating to cash by monitoring the financial stability of the financial institutions and their ability to continue in business for the foreseeable future. Cash and cash equivalents include funds on deposit with financial institutions, including demand deposits with financial institutions. Cash and short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less when acquired are considered cash and cash equivalents for the purpose of the consolidated balance sheets and consolidated statements of cash flows, and represented $ 6.9 million and $ 7.9 million of total cash and cash equivalents as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 , respectively. Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Consolidated Financial Statements The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates include the provision for current expected credit losses. Revenue Recognition Interest income on debt securities designated as trading securities is recognized on an accrual basis and is reported as interest receivable until collected. Interest income is accrued based on the outstanding face amount and the contractual terms of the securities. Original issue discount (“OID”), market discounts or premiums, if any, are recorded as an adjustment to the amortized cost and accreted or amortized as an adjustment to interest income using a method that approximates the effective interest method. Realized gains or losses on debt securities are measured by the difference between the net proceeds from the disposition and the amortized and/or accreted cost basis of the investment using the specific identification method without regard to unrealized gains or losses previously recognized, and include loans charged off during the period, net of recoveries. Income Taxes The Company is a Maryland corporation and has elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Code, commencing with the taxable year ended December 31, 2021. The Company believes that it qualifies as a REIT and that its method of operations will enable it to continue to qualify as a REIT. However, no assurances can be given that the Company’s beliefs or expectations will be fulfilled, since qualification as a REIT depends on the Company satisfying numerous asset, income and distribution tests which depends, in part, on the Company’s operating results. To qualify as a REIT, the Company must meet a number of organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement that the Company distributes annually to its stockholders at least 90 % of the Company’s REIT taxable income prior to the deduction for dividends paid. To the extent that the Company distributes less than 100 % of its REIT taxable income in any tax year (taking into account any distributions made in a subsequent tax year under Sections 857(b)(9) or 858 of the Code), the Company will pay tax at regular corporate rates on that undistributed portion. Furthermore, if the Company distributes less than the sum of 1) 85 % of its ordinary income for the calendar year, 2) 95 % of its capital gain net income for the calendar year, and 3) any undistributed shortfall from its prior calendar year (the “Required Distribution”) to its stockholders during any calendar year (including any distributions declared by the last day of the calendar year but paid in the subsequent year), then it is required to pay a non-deductible excise tax equal to 4 % of any shortfall between the Required Distribution and the amount that was actually distributed. The 90 % distribution requirement does not require the distribution of net capital gains. However, if the Company elects to retain any of its net capital gain for any tax year, it must notify its stockholders and pay tax at regular corporate rates on the retained net capital gain. The stockholders must include their proportionate share of the retained net capital gain in their taxable income for the tax year, and they are deemed to have paid the REIT’s tax on their proportionate share of the retained capital gain and receive an income tax credit for such amount. Furthermore, such retained capital gain may be subject to the nondeductible 4 % excise tax. If it is determined that the Company’s estimated current year taxable income will be in excess of estimated dividend distributions (including capital gain dividend) for the current year from such income, the Company accrues excise tax on estimated excess taxable income as such taxable income is earned. The annual expense is calculated in accordance with applicable tax regulations. FASB ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes (“ASC 740”), prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the consolidated 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 documented and supported for the taxable years ended December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022. Based on the Company’s evaluation, there is no reserve for any uncertain income tax positions as of March 31, 2024. Accrued interest and penalties, if any, are included within accounts payable and other liabilities in the balance sheets. Recent Accounting Pronouncements In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. This guidance requires public entities to disclose significant expense categories and amounts for each reportable segment, along with information regarding the composition of "other segment items." Additionally, the guidance requires the disclosure of the title and position of the entity's Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”), an explanation of how the CODM utilizes reported profit or loss measures to assess segment performance, and certain segment-related disclosures on an interim basis, which were previously required only annually. ASU 2023-07 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023 and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements. The Company does not expect to early adopt and will add the necessary disclosures upon adoption. In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09—Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (“ASU 2023-09”). ASU 2023-09 improves the transparency of income tax disclosures related to rate reconciliation and income taxes. ASU 2023-09 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. For entities other than public business entities, the amendments are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2025. Early adoption is permitted for annual financial statements that have not yet been issued or made available for issuance. The amendments should be applied prospectively, however retrospective application is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the update on the Company’s future consolidated financial statements.

As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, our borrowers have operations in the jurisdictions in the table below: As of March 31, 2024 As of December 31, 2023 Jurisdiction Outstanding (1) Our Loan Jurisdiction Outstanding (1) Our Loan Michigan $ 57,058,369 15 % Michigan $ 56,466,635 16 % Maryland 54,209,643 14 % Maryland 53,907,352 15 % Florida 47,748,013 13 % Florida 48,815,066 14 % Ohio 32,495,778 9 % Ohio 27,902,362 8 % Illinois 26,502,449 7 % Illinois 25,599,133 7 % Missouri 32,781,166 9 % Missouri 25,191,575 7 % Arizona 25,262,329 7 % Arizona 24,466,609 7 % New York 24,834,254 7 % New York 22,611,938 6 % Pennsylvania 21,782,997 6 % Pennsylvania 21,674,160 6 % Nebraska 13,061,667 3 % Nebraska 13,061,667 4 % Massachusetts 11,107,621 3 % Massachusetts 12,308,310 3 % West Virginia 12,094,954 3 % West Virginia 11,706,059 3 % California 6,680,000 2 % California — 0 % Nevada 5,747,094 2 % Nevada 5,764,439 2 % Connecticut 5,450,000 1 % Connecticut 5,450,000 2 % Oregon 760,000 0 % Oregon 820,000 0 % Total $ 377,576,334 100 % Total $ 355,745,305 100 % (1) The principal balance of the loans not secured by real estate collateral are included in the jurisdiction representing the principal place of business. CECL Reserve The Company records an allowance for current expected credit losses for its loans held for investment. The allowances are deducted from the gross carrying amount of the assets to present the net carrying value of the amounts expected to be collected on such assets. The Company estimates its CECL Reserve using among other inputs, third-party valuations, and a third-party probability-weighted model that considers the likelihood of default and expected loss given default for each individual loan based on the risk profile for approximately three years after which we immediately revert to use of historical loss data. ASC 326 requires an entity to consider historical loss experience, current conditions, and a reasonable and supportable forecast of the macroeconomic environment. The Company considers multiple datapoints and methodologies that may include likelihood of default and expected loss given default for each individual loan, valuations derived from discount cash flows (“DCF”), and other inputs including the risk rating of the loan, how recently the loan was originated compared to the measurement date, and expected prepayment, if applicable. The measurement of expected credit losses under CECL is applicable to financial assets measured at amortized cost, and off-balance sheet credit exposures such as unfunded loan commitments. The Company evaluates its loans on a collective (pool) basis by aggregating on the basis of similar risk characteristics as explained above. We make the judgment that loans to cannabis-related borrowers that are fully collateralized by real estate exhibit similar risk characteristics and are evaluated as a pool. Further, loans that have no real estate collateral, but are secured by other forms of collateral, including equity pledges of the borrower, and otherwise have similar characteristics as those collateralized by real estate are evaluated as a pool. All other loans are analyzed individually, either because they operate in a different industry, may have a different risk profile, or maturities that extend beyond the forecast horizon for which we are able to derive reasonable and supportable forecasts. Estimating the CECL Reserve also requires significant judgment with respect to various factors, including (i) the appropriate historical loan loss reference data, (ii) the expected timing of loan repayments, (iii) calibration of the likelihood of default to reflect the risk characteristics of the Company’s loan portfolio, and (iv) the Company’s current and future view of the macroeconomic environment. From time to time, the Company may consider loan-specific qualitative factors on certain loans to estimate its CECL Reserve, which may include (i) whether cash from the borrower’s operations is sufficient to cover the debt service requirements currently and into the future, (ii) the ability of the borrower to refinance the loan, and (iii) the liquidation value of collateral. For loans where we have deemed the borrower/sponsor to be experiencing financial difficulty, we may elect to apply a practical expedient, in which the fair value of the underlying collateral is compared to the amortized cost of the loan in determining a CECL Reserve. To estimate the historic loan losses relevant to the Company’s portfolio, the Company evaluates its historical loan performance, which includes zero realized loan losses since the inception of its operations. Additionally, the Company analyzed its repayment history, noting it has limited “true” operating history, since the incorporation date of March 30, 2021. However, the Company’s Sponsor and its affiliates have had operations for the past four fiscal years and have made investments in similar loans that have similar characteristics including interest rate, collateral coverage, guarantees, and prepayment/make whole provisions, which fall into the pools identified above. Given the similarity of the structuring of the credit agreements for the loans in the Company’s portfolio to the loans originated by its Sponsor, management considered it appropriate to consider the past repayment history of loans originated by the Sponsor and its affiliates in determining the extent to which a CECL Reserve shall be recorded. In addition, the Company reviews each loan on a quarterly basis and evaluates the borrower’s ability to pay the monthly interest and principal, if required, as well as the loan-to-value (LTV) ratio. When evaluating qualitative factors that may indicate the need for a CECL Reserve, the Company forecasts losses considering a variety of factors. In considering the potential current expected credit loss, the Manager primarily considers significant inputs to the Company’s forecasting methods, which include (i) key loan-specific inputs such as the value of the real estate collateral, liens on equity (including the equity in the entity that holds the state-issued license to cultivate, process, distribute, or retail cannabis), presence of personal or corporate guarantees, among other credit enhancements, LTV ratio, rate type (fixed or floating) and IRR, loan-term, geographic location, and expected timing and amount of future loan fundings, (ii) performance against the underwritten business plan and the Company’s internal loan risk rating, and (iii) a macro-economic forecast. Estimating the enterprise value of our borrowers in order to calculate LTV ratios is often a significant estimate. The Manager utilizes a third-party valuation appraiser to assist with the Company’s valuation process primarily using comparable transactions to estimate enterprise value of its portfolio companies and supplement such analysis with a multiple-based approach to enterprise value to revenue multiples of publicly-traded comparable companies obtained from S&P Capital IQ as of March 31, 2024, to which the Manager may apply a private company discount based on the Company’s current borrower profile. During the three-month period ended March 31, 2024, the Company observed that valuation multiples of publicly traded companies in the industry improved as a result of macro-economic factors. Such factors include, but are not limited to, expectations surrounding future interest rate changes by the Federal Reserve and public announcements about proposed regulatory reform relating to a potential rescheduling of cannabis at the federal level. Management contemplates the impacts of these macro-economic factors during the forecast period when determining enterprise value and ultimately, the CECL reserve. Estimates may change in future periods based on available future macro-economic data and might result in a material change in the Company’s future estimates of expected credit losses for its loan portfolio. Regarding real estate collateral, the Company generally cannot take the position of mortgagee-in-possession as long as the property is used by a cannabis operator, but it can request that the court appoint a receiver to manage and operate the subject real property until the foreclosure proceedings are completed. Additionally, while the Company cannot foreclose under state Uniform Commercial Code (“UCC”) and take title or sell equity in a licensed cannabis business, a potential purchaser of a delinquent or defaulted loan could. In order to estimate the future expected loan losses relevant to the Company’s portfolio, the Company utilizes historical market loan loss data obtained from a third-party database for commercial real estate loans, which the Company believes is a reasonably comparable and available data set to use as an input for its type of loans. The Company believes this dataset to be representative for future credit losses whilst considering that the cannabis industry is maturing, and consumer adoption, demand for production, and retail capacity are increasing akin to commercial real estate over time. For periods beyond the reasonable and supportable forecast period, the Company reverts back to historical loss data. All of the above assumptions, although made with the most available information at the time of the estimate, are subjective and actual activity may not follow the estimated schedule. These assumptions impact the future balances that the loss rate will be applied to and as such impact the Company’s CECL Reserve. As the Company acquires new loans and the Manager monitors loan and borrower performance, these estimates will be revised each period. Activity related to the CECL Reserve for outstanding balances and unfunded commitments on the Company’s loans held at carrying value and loans receivable at carrying value as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 is presented in the table below. Outstanding Unfunded Total Balance at December 31, 2023 $ 4,972,647 $ 3,092 $ 4,975,739 Provision (reversal) for current expected credit losses 383,371 ( 3,092 ) 380,279 Balance at March 31, 2024 $ 5,356,018 $ - $ 5,356,018 Outstanding Unfunded Total Balance at December 31, 2022 $ 3,940,939 $ 94,415 $ 4,035,354 Provision (reversal) for current expected credit losses 110,995 ( 14,876 ) 96,119 Balance at March 31, 2023 $ 4,051,934 $ 79,539 $ 4,131,473 The Company has made an accounting policy election to exclude accrued interest receivable from the amortized cost basis of the related loans held for investment in determining the CECL Reserve, as any uncollectible accrued interest receivable is written off in a timely manner. To date, the Company has had zero write-offs related to uncollectible interest receivable, but will discontinue accrual of interest on loans if deemed to be uncollectible, with any previously accrued uncollected interest on the loan charged to interest income in the same period. For the two loans on non-accrual, the Company ceased accruing interest on the first date of delinquency, based on expectation of its ability to collect all amounts then due from the borrower. As a result, there was no accrued interest to write-off when the loan was placed on non-accrual status." id="sjs-B4">3.

Loan numbering in the table above is maintained from origination for purposes of comparability and may not be sequential due to maturities, payoffs, or refinancings. (2) Certain loans are subject to contractual extension options and may be subject to performance based on other conditions as stipulated in the loan agreement. Actual maturities may differ from contractual maturities stated herein and certain borrowers may have the right to prepay with or without a contractual prepayment penalty. The Company may also extend contractual maturities and amend other terms of the loans in connection with loan modifications. (3) Total Commitment excludes future amounts to be advanced at sole discretion of the lender . (4) "P" = prime rate and depicts floating rate loans that pay interest at the prime rate plus a specific percentage; "PIK" = paid-in-kind interest; subtotal represents weighted average interest rate. (5) P&I = principal and interest. I/O = interest only. P&I loans may include interest only periods for a portion of the loan term. (6) Estimated YTM, calculated on a weighted average principal basis, includes a variety of fees and features that affect the total yield, which may include, but is not limited to, OID, exit fees, prepayment fees, unused fees and contingent features. OID is recognized as a discount to the funded loan principal and is accreted to income over the term of the loan. The estimated YTM calculations require management to make estimates and assumptions, including, but not limited to, the timing and amounts of loan draws on delayed draw loans, the timing and collectability of exit fees, the probability and timing of prepayments and the probability of contingent features occurring. For example, certain credit agreements contain provisions pursuant to which certain PIK interest rates and fees earned by us under such credit agreements will decrease upon the satisfaction of certain specified criteria which we believe may improve the risk profile of the applicable borrower. To be conservative, we have not assumed any prepayment penalties or early payoffs in our estimated YTM calculation. Estimated YTM is based on current management estimates and assumptions, which may change. Actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions.

Loan #9 is included on the consolidated balance sheet as a loan held for investment – related party (Note 7). The following table presents aging analyses of past due loans by amortized cost, excluding the CECL reserve, as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, there was one loan with principal greater than 90 days past due. As of March 31, 2024 Current 31-60 61-90 90+ Days Total Total Non- Senior Term Loans $ 359,317,126 $ - $ - $ 16,527,188 $ 16,527,188 $ 375,844,314 $ 16,527,188 Total $ 359,317,126 $ - $ - $ 16,527,188 $ 16,527,188 $ 375,844,314 $ 16,527,188 (1) Loans 1-30 days past due are included in the current loans. (2) On May 1, 2023, Loan #9 was placed on non-accrual status. On June 20, 2023, the Administrative Agent to Loan #9 issued an acceleration notice requesting immediate payment of all amounts outstanding and therefore is greater than 90 days past due as of March 31, 2024 . As of December 31, 2023 Current 31-60 61-90 90+ Days Total Total Non- Senior Term Loans $ 337,238,122 $ - $ - $ 16,402,488 $ 16,402,488 $ 353,640,610 $ 20,666,374 Total $ 337,238,122 $ - $ - $ 16,402,488 $ 16,402,488 $ 353,640,610 $ 20,666,374 (1) Loans 1-30 days past due are included in the current loans. (2) On May 1, 2023, Loan #9 was placed on non-accrual status. On June 20, 2023, the Administrative Agent to Loan #9 issued an acceleration notice requesting immediate payment of all amounts outstanding and therefore is 90 days past due as of December 31, 2023 . Non-Accrual Loans As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 , there was one and two loans placed on non-accrual status, respectively. Loan #9 was placed on non-accrual status as of May 1, 2023 and has both an outstanding principal balance and carrying value of approximately $ 16.5 million and $ 16.4 million as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 , respectively, and carries a reserve for current expected credit losses of approximately $ 1.3 million as of March 31, 2024. The Company ceased accruing interest on the first date of delinquency, based on expectation of its ability to collect all amounts then due from the borrower. As a result, there was no accrued interest to write-off when the loan was placed on non-accrual. Loan #6 was placed on non-accrual status as of December 1, 2023 and has both an outstanding principal balance and carrying value of approximately $ 4.3 million as of December 31, 2023. In March 2024, the Company entered into an amendment to Loan #6, which extended the maturity date to April 15, 2024 . In connection with this amendment, Loan #6 was restored to accrual status. In April 2024, the loan maturity was further extended to May 31, 2024 . Credit Quality Indicators The Company assesses the risk factors of each loan, and assigns a risk rating based on a variety of factors, including, without limitation, payment history, real estate collateral coverage, property type, geographic and local market dynamics, financial performance, loan to enterprise value and fixed charge coverage ratios, loan structure and exit strategy, and project sponsorship. This review is performed quarterly. Based on a 5-point scale, the Company’s loans are rated “1” through “5,” from less risk to greater risk, which ratings are defined as follows: Rating Definition 1 Very low risk 2 Low risk 3 Moderate/average risk 4 High risk/potential for loss: a loan that has a risk of realizing a principal loss 5 Impaired/loss likely: a loan that has a high risk of realizing principal loss, has incurred principal loss or an impairment has been recorded The risk ratings are primarily based on historical data and current conditions specific to each portfolio company, as well as consideration of future economic conditions and each borrower’s estimated ability to meet debt service requirements. The risk ratings shown in the following table as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 consider borrower specific credit history and performance and reflect a quarterly re-evaluation of overall current macroeconomic conditions affecting the Company’s borrowers. As interest rates have increased due to rising rates from the Federal Reserve Board, it has impacted borrowers’ ability to service their debt obligations on a global scale. The changes in risk ratings had an effect on the level of the current expected credit loss reserve though, other than the one loan placed on non-accrual status, the loans continued to perform as expected. For approximately 65.7 % of the portfolio, the fair value of the underlying real estate collateral exceeded the amounts outstanding under the loans as of March 31, 2024 . The remaining approximately 34.3 % of the portfolio, while not fully collateralized by real estate, may be partially collateralized by real estate and was secured by other forms of collateral including equipment, receivables, licenses and/or other assets of the borrowers to the extent permitted by applicable laws and regulations governing such borrowers. The amounts above exclude any apportionment of real estate collateral permissible under the applicable income and asset tests for REIT eligibility. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the carrying value, excluding the current expected credit loss reserve (the “CECL Reserve”), of the Company’s loans within each risk rating category by year of origination is as follows: Risk As of March 31, 2024(1)(2) As of December 31, 2023(1)(2) Rating 2024 2023 2022 2021 Total 2023 2022 2021 2020 Total 1 $ - $ 760,000 $ 37,370,672 $ - $ 38,130,672 $ 820,000 $ 37,644,911 $ - $ - $ 38,464,911 2 973,078 61,901,509 76,437,863 46,368,517 185,680,968 51,320,161 107,007,422 46,792,941 - 205,120,524 3 6,680,000 2,466,705 39,106,565 59,092,743 107,346,013 2,466,705 5,296,308 58,829,717 - 66,592,730 4 - - - 44,686,661 44,686,661 - — 43,462,445 - 43,462,445 5 - - - - - - - - - - Total $ 7,653,078 $ 65,128,214 $ 152,915,100 $ 150,147,921 $ 375,844,314 $ 54,606,866 $ 149,948,641 $ 149,085,103 $ - $ 353,640,610 (1) Amounts are presented by loan origination year with subsequent advances shown in the original year of origination. (2) Loan #9 placed on non-accrual status is included in risk rating category “4” and has a reserve for current expected credit losses of approximately $ 1.3 million as of March 31, 2024 and $ 1.5 million as of December 31, 2023 . Real estate collateral coverage is also a significant credit quality indicator, and real estate collateral coverage, excluding the CECL Reserve, was as follows as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023: As of March 31, 2024 Real Estate Collateral Coverage(1) < 1.0x 1.0x – 1.25x 1.25x – 1.5x 1.50x – 1.75x 1.75x – 2.0x > 2.0x Total Fixed-rate $ 2,466,705 $ 17,716,484 $ 44,488,442 $ - $ 20,658,750 $ 2,010,090 $ 87,340,471 Floating-rate 126,010,679 38,866,605 69,642,441 - - 53,984,118 288,503,843 $ 128,477,384 $ 56,583,089 $ 114,130,883 $ - $ 20,658,750 $ 55,994,208 $ 375,844,314 As of December 31, 2023 Real Estate Collateral Coverage(1) < 1.0x 1.0x – 1.25x 1.25x – 1.5x 1.50x – 1.75x 1.75x – 2.0x > 2.0x Total Fixed-rate $ 2,466,706 $ - $ 49,041,867 $ 17,613,043 $ - $ — $ 69,121,616 Floating-rate 104,322,083 35,491,887 38,729,046 15,396,370 5,296,308 85,283,300 284,518,994 $ 106,788,789 $ 35,491,887 $ 87,770,913 $ 33,009,413 $ 5,296,308 $ 85,283,300 $ 353,640,610 (1) Real estate collateral coverage is calculated based upon most recent third-party appraised values. The Company generally obtains new appraisal of all material real estate collateral at least once annually. Geography concentration of our loans held for investment is also a significant credit quality indicator. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, our borrowers have operations in the jurisdictions in the table below: As of March 31, 2024 As of December 31, 2023 Jurisdiction Outstanding (1) Our Loan Jurisdiction Outstanding (1) Our Loan Michigan $ 57,058,369 15 % Michigan $ 56,466,635 16 % Maryland 54,209,643 14 % Maryland 53,907,352 15 % Florida 47,748,013 13 % Florida 48,815,066 14 % Ohio 32,495,778 9 % Ohio 27,902,362 8 % Illinois 26,502,449 7 % Illinois 25,599,133 7 % Missouri 32,781,166 9 % Missouri 25,191,575 7 % Arizona 25,262,329 7 % Arizona 24,466,609 7 % New York 24,834,254 7 % New York 22,611,938 6 % Pennsylvania 21,782,997 6 % Pennsylvania 21,674,160 6 % Nebraska 13,061,667 3 % Nebraska 13,061,667 4 % Massachusetts 11,107,621 3 % Massachusetts 12,308,310 3 % West Virginia 12,094,954 3 % West Virginia 11,706,059 3 % California 6,680,000 2 % California — 0 % Nevada 5,747,094 2 % Nevada 5,764,439 2 % Connecticut 5,450,000 1 % Connecticut 5,450,000 2 % Oregon 760,000 0 % Oregon 820,000 0 % Total $ 377,576,334 100 % Total $ 355,745,305 100 % (1) The principal balance of the loans not secured by real estate collateral are included in the jurisdiction representing the principal place of business. CECL Reserve The Company records an allowance for current expected credit losses for its loans held for investment. The allowances are deducted from the gross carrying amount of the assets to present the net carrying value of the amounts expected to be collected on such assets. The Company estimates its CECL Reserve using among other inputs, third-party valuations, and a third-party probability-weighted model that considers the likelihood of default and expected loss given default for each individual loan based on the risk profile for approximately three years after which we immediately revert to use of historical loss data. ASC 326 requires an entity to consider historical loss experience, current conditions, and a reasonable and supportable forecast of the macroeconomic environment. The Company considers multiple datapoints and methodologies that may include likelihood of default and expected loss given default for each individual loan, valuations derived from discount cash flows (“DCF”), and other inputs including the risk rating of the loan, how recently the loan was originated compared to the measurement date, and expected prepayment, if applicable. The measurement of expected credit losses under CECL is applicable to financial assets measured at amortized cost, and off-balance sheet credit exposures such as unfunded loan commitments. The Company evaluates its loans on a collective (pool) basis by aggregating on the basis of similar risk characteristics as explained above. We make the judgment that loans to cannabis-related borrowers that are fully collateralized by real estate exhibit similar risk characteristics and are evaluated as a pool. Further, loans that have no real estate collateral, but are secured by other forms of collateral, including equity pledges of the borrower, and otherwise have similar characteristics as those collateralized by real estate are evaluated as a pool. All other loans are analyzed individually, either because they operate in a different industry, may have a different risk profile, or maturities that extend beyond the forecast horizon for which we are able to derive reasonable and supportable forecasts. Estimating the CECL Reserve also requires significant judgment with respect to various factors, including (i) the appropriate historical loan loss reference data, (ii) the expected timing of loan repayments, (iii) calibration of the likelihood of default to reflect the risk characteristics of the Company’s loan portfolio, and (iv) the Company’s current and future view of the macroeconomic environment. From time to time, the Company may consider loan-specific qualitative factors on certain loans to estimate its CECL Reserve, which may include (i) whether cash from the borrower’s operations is sufficient to cover the debt service requirements currently and into the future, (ii) the ability of the borrower to refinance the loan, and (iii) the liquidation value of collateral. For loans where we have deemed the borrower/sponsor to be experiencing financial difficulty, we may elect to apply a practical expedient, in which the fair value of the underlying collateral is compared to the amortized cost of the loan in determining a CECL Reserve. To estimate the historic loan losses relevant to the Company’s portfolio, the Company evaluates its historical loan performance, which includes zero realized loan losses since the inception of its operations. Additionally, the Company analyzed its repayment history, noting it has limited “true” operating history, since the incorporation date of March 30, 2021. However, the Company’s Sponsor and its affiliates have had operations for the past four fiscal years and have made investments in similar loans that have similar characteristics including interest rate, collateral coverage, guarantees, and prepayment/make whole provisions, which fall into the pools identified above. Given the similarity of the structuring of the credit agreements for the loans in the Company’s portfolio to the loans originated by its Sponsor, management considered it appropriate to consider the past repayment history of loans originated by the Sponsor and its affiliates in determining the extent to which a CECL Reserve shall be recorded. In addition, the Company reviews each loan on a quarterly basis and evaluates the borrower’s ability to pay the monthly interest and principal, if required, as well as the loan-to-value (LTV) ratio. When evaluating qualitative factors that may indicate the need for a CECL Reserve, the Company forecasts losses considering a variety of factors. In considering the potential current expected credit loss, the Manager primarily considers significant inputs to the Company’s forecasting methods, which include (i) key loan-specific inputs such as the value of the real estate collateral, liens on equity (including the equity in the entity that holds the state-issued license to cultivate, process, distribute, or retail cannabis), presence of personal or corporate guarantees, among other credit enhancements, LTV ratio, rate type (fixed or floating) and IRR, loan-term, geographic location, and expected timing and amount of future loan fundings, (ii) performance against the underwritten business plan and the Company’s internal loan risk rating, and (iii) a macro-economic forecast. Estimating the enterprise value of our borrowers in order to calculate LTV ratios is often a significant estimate. The Manager utilizes a third-party valuation appraiser to assist with the Company’s valuation process primarily using comparable transactions to estimate enterprise value of its portfolio companies and supplement such analysis with a multiple-based approach to enterprise value to revenue multiples of publicly-traded comparable companies obtained from S&P Capital IQ as of March 31, 2024, to which the Manager may apply a private company discount based on the Company’s current borrower profile. During the three-month period ended March 31, 2024, the Company observed that valuation multiples of publicly traded companies in the industry improved as a result of macro-economic factors. Such factors include, but are not limited to, expectations surrounding future interest rate changes by the Federal Reserve and public announcements about proposed regulatory reform relating to a potential rescheduling of cannabis at the federal level. Management contemplates the impacts of these macro-economic factors during the forecast period when determining enterprise value and ultimately, the CECL reserve. Estimates may change in future periods based on available future macro-economic data and might result in a material change in the Company’s future estimates of expected credit losses for its loan portfolio. Regarding real estate collateral, the Company generally cannot take the position of mortgagee-in-possession as long as the property is used by a cannabis operator, but it can request that the court appoint a receiver to manage and operate the subject real property until the foreclosure proceedings are completed. Additionally, while the Company cannot foreclose under state Uniform Commercial Code (“UCC”) and take title or sell equity in a licensed cannabis business, a potential purchaser of a delinquent or defaulted loan could. In order to estimate the future expected loan losses relevant to the Company’s portfolio, the Company utilizes historical market loan loss data obtained from a third-party database for commercial real estate loans, which the Company believes is a reasonably comparable and available data set to use as an input for its type of loans. The Company believes this dataset to be representative for future credit losses whilst considering that the cannabis industry is maturing, and consumer adoption, demand for production, and retail capacity are increasing akin to commercial real estate over time. For periods beyond the reasonable and supportable forecast period, the Company reverts back to historical loss data. All of the above assumptions, although made with the most available information at the time of the estimate, are subjective and actual activity may not follow the estimated schedule. These assumptions impact the future balances that the loss rate will be applied to and as such impact the Company’s CECL Reserve. As the Company acquires new loans and the Manager monitors loan and borrower performance, these estimates will be revised each period. Activity related to the CECL Reserve for outstanding balances and unfunded commitments on the Company’s loans held at carrying value and loans receivable at carrying value as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 is presented in the table below. Outstanding Unfunded Total Balance at December 31, 2023 $ 4,972,647 $ 3,092 $ 4,975,739 Provision (reversal) for current expected credit losses 383,371 ( 3,092 ) 380,279 Balance at March 31, 2024 $ 5,356,018 $ - $ 5,356,018 Outstanding Unfunded Total Balance at December 31, 2022 $ 3,940,939 $ 94,415 $ 4,035,354 Provision (reversal) for current expected credit losses 110,995 ( 14,876 ) 96,119 Balance at March 31, 2023 $ 4,051,934 $ 79,539 $ 4,131,473 The Company has made an accounting policy election to exclude accrued interest receivable from the amortized cost basis of the related loans held for investment in determining the CECL Reserve, as any uncollectible accrued interest receivable is written off in a timely manner. To date, the Company has had zero write-offs related to uncollectible interest receivable, but will discontinue accrual of interest on loans if deemed to be uncollectible, with any previously accrued uncollected interest on the loan charged to interest income in the same period. For the two loans on non-accrual, the Company ceased accruing interest on the first date of delinquency, based on expectation of its ability to collect all amounts then due from the borrower. As a result, there was no accrued interest to write-off when the loan was placed on non-accrual status.

Debt [Abstract]
DEBT	6. DEBT The Company's revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Loan”) had an original aggregate borrowing base of up to $ 10,000,000 and bore interest, payable in cash in arrears, at a per annum rate equal to the greater of (x) Prime Rate plus 1.00 % and (y) 4.75 %. The Company incurred debt issuance costs of $ 100,000 related to the origination of the Revolving Loan, which were capitalized and are subsequently being amortized through maturity. The maturity date of the Revolving Loan was the earlier of (i) February 12, 2023 and (ii) the date on which the Revolving Loan is terminated pursuant to terms in the Revolving Loan Agreement. On February 27, 2023, CAL entered into an amendment to the Third Amendment and Restatement (the “Amendment”). The Amendment extended the contractual maturity date of the Revolving Loan until December 16, 2024 and the Company retained its option to extend the initial term for an additional one-year period, provided no events of default exist and the Company provides 365 days’ notice of the extension pursuant to the Amendment. No other material terms of the Revolving Loan were modified as a result of the execution of the Amendment. The Company incurred debt issuance costs of $ 2,988 related to the Amendment, which were capitalized and are subsequently amortized through maturity. On June 30, 2023, CAL entered into a Fourth Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement (the “Fourth Amendment and Restatement”). The Fourth Amendment and Restatement increased the loan commitment from $ 92.5 million to $ 100.0 million. No other material terms of the Revolving Loan were modified as a result of the execution of the Fourth Amendment. The Company incurred debt issuance costs of $ 109,291 related to the Amendment, which were capitalized and are subsequently amortized through maturity. On February 28, 2024, CAL entered into a Fifth Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement (the “Fifth Amendment and Restatement”). The Fifth Amendment and Restatement extended the contractual maturity date of the Revolving Loan until June 30, 2026 , and expanded the existing accordion feature to permit aggregate loan commitments of up to $ 150.0 million. No other material terms of the Revolving Loan were modified as a result of the execution of the Fifth Amendment and Restatement. The Company incurred debt issuance costs of approximately $ 0.1 million related to the Fifth Amendment and Restatement, which were capitalized and will subsequently be amortized through maturity. The Revolving Loan provides for certain affirmative covenants, including requiring us to deliver financial information and any notices of default, and conducting business in the normal course. Additionally, the Company must comply with certain financial covenants including: (1) maximum capital expenditures of $ 150,000 , (2) maintaining a debt service coverage ratio greater than 1.35 to 1, and (3) maintaining a leverage ratio less than 1.50 to 1. As of March 31, 2024 , the Company is in compliance with all financial covenants with respect to the Revolving Loan.

RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS	7. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS Management Agreement Pursuant to the Management Agreement, the Manager manages the loans and day-to-day operations of the Company, subject at all times to the further terms and conditions set forth in the Management Agreement and such further limitations or parameters as may be imposed from time to time by the Company’s Board. The initial term of our Management Agreement is for three years and shall continue until May 1, 2024. After the initial term, our Management Agreement shall automatically renew every year for an additional one-year period, unless we or our Manager elect not to renew. Our Management Agreement may be terminated by us or our Manager under certain specified circumstances. On April 30, 2024, the Management Agreement was automatically renewed. The Manager is entitled to receive base management fees (the “Base Management Fee”) that are calculated and payable quarterly in arrears, in an amount equal to 0.375% of the Company’s Equity, determined as of the last day of each such quarter; reduced by an amount equal to 50% of the pro rata amount of origination fees earned and paid to the Manager during the applicable quarter for loans that were originated on the Company’s behalf by the Manager or affiliates of the Manager (“Outside Fees”). For the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, the Base Management Fee payable was reduced by Outside Fees in the amount of $ 16,071 and $ 5,000 , respectively. In addition to the Base Management Fee, the Manager is entitled to receive incentive compensation (the “Incentive Compensation” or “Incentive Fees”) under the Management Agreement. Under the Management Agreement, the Company will pay Incentive Fees to the Manager based upon the Company’s achievement of targeted levels of Core Earnings. “Core Earnings” is defined in the Management Agreement as, for a given period, the net income (loss) for such period, computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding (i) non-cash equity compensation expense, (ii) the Incentive Compensation, (iii) depreciation and amortization, (iv) any unrealized gains or losses or other non-cash items that are included in net income for the applicable reporting 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 non-cash charges, in each case after discussions between the Manager and the members of the Compensation Committee of the Board, each of whom are Independent Directors, and approved by a majority of the members of the Compensation Committee. Incentive compensation for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 was $ 696,504 and $ 1,111,206 respectively. The Company shall pay all of its costs and expenses and shall reimburse the Manager or its affiliates for expenses of the Manager and its affiliates paid or incurred on behalf of the Company, excepting only those expenses that are specifically the responsibility of the Manager pursuant to the Management Agreement. We reimburse our Manager or its affiliates, as applicable, for the Company’s fair and equitable allocable share of the compensation, including annual base salary, bonus, any related withholding taxes and employee benefits, paid to (i) subject to review by the Compensation Committee of the Board, the Manager’s personnel serving as an officer of the Company, based on the percentage of his or her time spent devoted to the Company’s affairs and (ii) other corporate finance, tax, accounting, internal audit, legal, risk management, operations, compliance, and other non-investment personnel of the Manager and its affiliates who spend all or a portion of their time managing the Company’s affairs, with the allocable share of the compensation of such personnel described in this clause (ii) being as reasonably determined by the Manager to appropriately reflect the amount of time spent devoted by such personnel to our affairs. The following table summarizes the related party fees and expenses incurred by the Company and amounts payable to the Manager for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023. For the three months ended March 31, 2024 2023 Affiliate Payments Management fees earned $ 1,074,308 $ 1,031,799 Less: Outside Fees earned ( 16,071 ) ( 5,000 ) Base management fees, net 1,058,237 1,026,799 Incentive fees 696,504 1,111,206 Total management and incentive fees earned 1,754,741 2,138,005 General and administrative expenses reimbursable to Manager 1,237,790 1,176,376 Total $ 2,992,531 $ 3,314,381 General administrative expenses reimbursable to the Manager are included in the related party payable line item of the consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023. Total amounts payable to the Manager as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 were approximately $ 3.6 million and $ 5.3 million, respectively, which included bonuses accrued of $ 0.8 million and $ 1.2 million which are not reimbursed until paid in cash by the Manager. Co-Investment in Loans From time to time, the Company may co-invest with other investment vehicles managed by its affiliates, in accordance with the Manager’s co-investment allocation policies. The Company is not obligated to provide, nor has it provided, any financial support to the other managed investment vehicles. As such, the Company’s risk is limited to the carrying value of its investment in any such loan. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, 21 and 20 of the Company’s loans were co-invested by affiliates of the Company, respectively. Certain syndicated co-investments originated by affiliates of the Manager may include other consideration, generally in the form of warrants or other equity interests. Prior to, or concurrent with, the origination of the investment, the Company may elect to assign the right (the “Assigned Right”) to the equity consideration to an affiliate, in exchange for an additional upfront fee in an amount equal to the fair value of the equity consideration on a pro-rata basis. There were no sales of Assigned Rights for the three month periods ended March 31, 2024 and 2023. Loan transactions with related parties On January 24, 2023, the Company purchased a senior secured loan from an affiliate under common control with our Manager. The purchase price of approximately $ 19.3 million was approved by the audit committee of the Board. The fair value approximated the carrying value of the loan of $ 19.0 million, plus accrued and unpaid interest through the purchase date of $ 0.3 million. On March 31, 2023, the Company sold a senior secured loan to a syndicate of co-lenders, including a third party and two affiliates under common control with our Manager. The total selling price of approximately $ 14.2 million was approved by the audit committee of the Board. The fair value approximated the carrying value of the loan of $ 13.4 million plus accrued unpaid interest of $ 0.8 million through the sale date. Loan held for investment – related party As of May 1, 2023, Loan #9 was placed on non-accrual status for borrower's breach of certain non-financial covenants and obligations under the loan agreement. The borrower subsequently failed to make contractual principal and interest payments due for the months of May and June 2023. On June 20, 2023, the Administrative Agent to Loan #9 (the “Agent”, a related party) issued an acceleration notice notifying the borrower of the Agent’s intention to exercise all rights and remedies under the credit documents and requested immediate payment of all amounts outstanding thereunder on behalf of the lenders. The Agent subsequently pursued a Uniform Commercial Code (“UCC”) sale of the membership interests of the borrower’s subsidiaries which were pledged as collateral. On August 10, 2023, the Agent was the highest bidder in a public auction of the membership interests and took ownership of the membership interests. The Agent intends to sell the assets in satisfaction of the loan for the benefit of the lenders. As described in Note 3, Loan #9 remains on non-accrual status and the Company will continue to cease further recognition of income until such events of default are cured or obligations are repaid. As of March 31, 2024 , Loan #9 is held on the consolidated balance sheet as a loan held for investment – related party with a carrying value of approximately $ 16.5 million.

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES	8. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements Off-balance sheet commitments may consist of unfunded commitments on delayed draw term loans. The Company does not have any relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, such as entities often referred to as structured investment vehicles, special purpose entities, or variable interest entities, established to facilitate off-balance sheet arrangements or other contractually narrow or limited purposes. Further, the Company has not guaranteed any obligations of unconsolidated entities or entered into any commitment to provide additional funding to any such entities. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had the following unfunded commitments on existing loans.

As of March 31, 2024, the Company is not aware of any legal claims that could materially impact its business, financial condition, or results of operations. The Company’s ability to grow or maintain its business depends, in part, on state laws pertaining to the cannabis industry. New laws that are adverse to the Company’s portfolio companies may be enacted, and current favorable state or national laws or enforcement guidelines relating to cultivation, production, and distribution of cannabis may be modified or eliminated in the future, which would impede the Company’s ability to grow and could materially and adversely affect its business. Management’s plan to mitigate risks include monitoring the legal landscape as deemed appropriate. Also, should a loan default or otherwise be seized, the Company may be prohibited from owning cannabis assets and thus could not take possession of collateral, in which case the Company would look to sell the loan, provide consent to allow the borrower to sell the real estate to a third party, institute a foreclosure proceeding to have the real estate sold or evict the tenant, have the cannabis operations removed from the property and take title to the underlying real estate, each of which may result in the Company realizing a loss on the transaction.

Stockholders’ Equity [Abstract]
STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY	9. STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY Common Stock On February 15, 2023, the Company completed a registered direct offering of 395,779 shares of common stock at a price of $ 15.16 per share, raising net proceeds of approximately $ 6.0 million. The Company sold shares of common stock directly, without the use of underwriters or placement agents, to institutional investors registered pursuant to its effective shelf registration statement. Equity Incentive Plan The Company has established an equity incentive compensation plan (the “2021 Plan”). The Board authorized the adoption of the 2021 Plan and the Compensation Committee of the Board administers the 2021 Plan. The 2021 Plan authorizes stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, stock bonuses, stock units, and other forms of awards granted or denominated in the Company’s common stock. The 2021 Plan retains flexibility to offer competitive incentives and to tailor benefits to specific needs and circumstances. Any award may be structured to be paid or settled in cash. The Company has and currently intends to continue to grant restricted stock awards to participants in the 2021 Plan, but it may also grant any other type of award available under the 2021 Plan in the future. Persons eligible to receive awards under the 2021 Plan include the Company’s officers and employees of the Manager and its affiliates or officers and employees of the Company’s subsidiaries, if any, the members of the Board, and certain consultants and other service providers. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 , the maximum number of shares of the Company’s common stock that may be delivered pursuant to awards under the 2021 Plan (the “Share Limit”) equals 8.50 % of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock on a fully-diluted basis following the completion of the IPO. Shares that are subject to or underlie awards that expire or for any reason are cancelled or terminated, are forfeited, fail to vest, or for any other reason are not paid or delivered under the 2021 Plan will not be counted against the Share Limit and will again be available for subsequent awards under the 2021 Plan. There were 0 and 417 shares forfeited during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. As individual awards and options become fully vested, stock-based compensation expense is adjusted to recognize actual forfeitures. Shares that are exchanged by a participant or withheld by the Company as full or partial payment in connection with any award granted under the 2021 Plan, as well as any shares exchanged by a participant or withheld by the Company to satisfy tax withholding obligations related to any award granted under the 2021 Plan, will not be counted against the Share Limit and will again be available for subsequent awards under the 2021 Plan. To the extent that an award is settled in cash or a form other than shares, the shares that would have been delivered had there been no such cash or other settlement will not be counted against the Share Limit and will again be available for subsequent awards under the 2021 Plan. Based on the closing market price of our common stock on March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the aggregate intrinsic value of our restricted stock awards was as follows: As of March 31, 2024 As of December 31, 2023 Outstanding Vested Outstanding Vested Aggregate intrinsic value $ 5,677,200 $ 1,073,937 $ 5,525,370 $ 937,068 The following table summarizes the restricted stock activity for the Company’s directors and officers and employees of the Manager during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023. Three months ended Weighted Average Grant Date Balance at December 31, 2023 366,647 $ 14.86 Vested ( 6,647 ) $ 16.00 Unvested Balance at March 31, 2024 360,000 $ 14.84 Three months ended Weighted Average Grant Date Balance at December 31, 2022 80,984 $ 15.71 Vested ( 6,952 ) $ 16.00 Forfeited ( 417 ) $ 16.00 Unvested Balance at March 31, 2023 73,615 $ 15.68 Restricted stock compensation expense is based on the Company’s stock price at the date of the grant and is amortized over the vesting period. Forfeitures are recognized as they occur. The share-based compensation expense for the Company was $ 531,293 and $ 138,335 for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The unamortized share-based compensation expense for the Company was approximately $ 4.0 million and $ 1.1 million as of March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively, which the Company expects to recognize over the remaining weighted-average term of 1.9 years. At-the-Market Offering Program (“ATM Program”) On June 20, 2023, the Company entered into an At-the-Market Sales Agreement (the “Sales Agreement”) with BTIG, LLC, Compass Point Research & Trading, LLC and Oppenheimer & Co. Inc. (each a “Sales Agent” and together the “Sales Agents”) under which the Company may, from time to time, offer and sell shares of common stock, having an aggregate offering price of up to $ 75.0 million. Under the terms of the Sales Agreement, the Company has agreed to pay the Sales Agents a commission of up to 3.0 % of the gross proceeds from each sale of common stock sold through the Sales Agents. Sales of common stock, if any, may be made in transactions that are deemed to be “at-the-market” offerings, as defined in Rule 415(a)(4) promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). During the quarter ended March 31, 2024 , the Company sold an aggregate of 896,443 shares of the Company’s common stock under the Sales Agreement at a weighted average price of $ 15.93 per share, generating net proceeds of approximately $ 13.9 million. As of March 31, 2024 , the shares of common stock sold pursuant to the registered direct offering in February 2023 and under the ATM Program are the only offerings that have been initiated under the Shelf Registration Statement.

Income Tax [Abstract]
INCOME TAX	11. INCOME TAX To qualify as a REIT, we must meet a number of organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement that we distribute annually to our stockholders at least 90% of our REIT taxable income prior to the deduction for dividends paid. To the extent that we distribute less than 100% of our REIT taxable income in any tax year (taking into account any distributions made in a subsequent tax year under Sections 857(b)(9) or 858 of the Code), we will pay tax at regular corporate rates on that undistributed portion. Furthermore, if we distribute less than the sum of 1) 85% of our ordinary income for the calendar year, 2) 95% of our capital gain net income for the calendar year, and 3) any undistributed shortfall from our prior calendar year (the “Required Distribution”) to our stockholders during any calendar year (including any distributions declared by the last day of the calendar year but paid in the subsequent year), then we are required to pay a non-deductible excise tax equal to 4% of any shortfall between the Required Distribution and the amount that was actually distributed. The 90% distribution requirement does not require the distribution of net capital gains. However, if we elect to retain any of our net capital gain for any tax year, we must notify our stockholders and pay tax at regular corporate rates on the retained net capital gain. Our stockholders must include their proportionate share of the retained net capital gain in their taxable income for the tax year, and they are deemed to have paid the REIT’s tax on their proportionate share of the retained capital gain. Furthermore, such retained capital gain may be subject to the nondeductible 4% excise tax. If it is determined that our estimated current year taxable income will be in excess of estimated dividend distributions (including capital gain dividend) for the current year from such income, we will accrue excise tax on estimated excess taxable income as such taxable income is earned. The annual expense is calculated in accordance with applicable tax regulations. Excise tax expense, if any, is included in the line item, income tax expense. For the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, we did not incur excise tax expense. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 , the Company does not have any unrecognized tax benefits.

Fair Value Measurements

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]
FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS	12. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS GAAP requires disclosure of fair value information about financial and nonfinancial assets and liabilities, whether or not recognized in the financial statements, for which it is practical to estimate the value. In cases where quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based upon the application of discount rates to estimated future cash flows using market yields, or other valuation methodologies. Any changes to the valuation methodology will be reviewed by the Company’s management to ensure the changes are appropriate. The methods used may produce a fair value calculation that is not indicative of net realizable value or reflective of future fair values. Furthermore, while the Company anticipates that the valuation methods are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use of different methodologies, or assumptions, to determine the fair value of certain financial and nonfinancial assets and liabilities could result in a different estimate of fair value at the reporting date. The Company uses inputs that are current as of the measurement date, which may fall within periods of market dislocation, during which price transparency may be reduced. Recurring Fair Value Measurements There were no financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2024 . The following table summarizes the Company’s financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2023: As of December 31, 2023 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Financial assets: Debt securities, at fair value $ - $ 842,269 $ - $ 842,269 Financial Assets and Liabilities Not Measured at Fair Value As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the carrying values and fair values of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities recorded at amortized cost are as follows: As of As of 2024 2023 Level in Carrying Fair Value Carrying Fair Value Financial assets: Loans held for investment 3 $ 375,844,314 $ 373,256,778 $ 353,640,610 $ 351,952,876 Cash and cash equivalents 1 6,904,113 6,904,113 7,898,040 7,898,040 Interest receivable 2 926,852 926,852 1,004,140 1,004,140 Other receivables and assets, net 2 5,143,318 5,143,318 705,960 705,960 Related party receivables 2 192,354 192,354 107,225 107,225 Financial liabilities: Revolving loan 2 $ 81,250,000 $ 80,863,975 $ 66,000,000 $ 65,633,408 Accounts payable and other liabilities 2 1,342,872 1,342,872 1,135,355 1,135,355 Interest reserve 2 2,519,871 2,519,871 1,074,889 1,074,889 Management and incentive fees payable 2 1,819,428 1,819,428 3,243,775 3,243,775 Related party payables 2 1,754,741 1,754,741 2,051,531 2,051,531 Dividend payable 2 9,007,244 9,007,244 13,866,656 13,866,656 Our loans are held for investment and are substantially secured by real estate, equipment, licenses and other assets of the borrowers to the extent permitted by the applicable laws and the regulations governing such borrowers. The aggregate fair value of the Company’s loan portfolio was $ 373,256,778 and $ 351,952,876 , with gross unrecognized holding losses of $ 2,587,536 and $ 1,687,734 as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 , respectively. The fair values, which are classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy, are estimated using discounted cash flow models based on current market inputs for similar types of arrangements. The primary sensitivity in these models is based on the selection of appropriate discount rates. Fluctuations in these assumptions could result in different estimates of fair value.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation	Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes of the Company have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting and in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information, the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Our consolidated financial statements present the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows of Chicago Atlantic Real Estate Finance, Inc., and its wholly owned consolidated subsidiary, Chicago Atlantic Lincoln, LLC. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Accordingly, these financial statements may not contain all disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles. Reference should be made to Note 2 of the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2023. In the opinion of the Company, all normal recurring adjustments have been made that are necessary to the fair statement of the results of operations and financial position as of and for the periods presented. Operating results for the three-month period ended March 31, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2024.
Cash and Cash Equivalents	Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company’s cash held with financial institutions may at times exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insured limits. The Company and the Manager seek to manage this credit risk relating to cash by monitoring the financial stability of the financial institutions and their ability to continue in business for the foreseeable future. Cash and cash equivalents include funds on deposit with financial institutions, including demand deposits with financial institutions. Cash and short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less when acquired are considered cash and cash equivalents for the purpose of the consolidated balance sheets and consolidated statements of cash flows, and represented $ 6.9 million and $ 7.9 million of total cash and cash equivalents as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 , respectively.
Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Consolidated Financial Statements	Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Consolidated Financial Statements The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates include the provision for current expected credit losses.
Revenue Recognition	Revenue Recognition Interest income on debt securities designated as trading securities is recognized on an accrual basis and is reported as interest receivable until collected. Interest income is accrued based on the outstanding face amount and the contractual terms of the securities. Original issue discount (“OID”), market discounts or premiums, if any, are recorded as an adjustment to the amortized cost and accreted or amortized as an adjustment to interest income using a method that approximates the effective interest method. Realized gains or losses on debt securities are measured by the difference between the net proceeds from the disposition and the amortized and/or accreted cost basis of the investment using the specific identification method without regard to unrealized gains or losses previously recognized, and include loans charged off during the period, net of recoveries.
Income Taxes	Income Taxes The Company is a Maryland corporation and has elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Code, commencing with the taxable year ended December 31, 2021. The Company believes that it qualifies as a REIT and that its method of operations will enable it to continue to qualify as a REIT. However, no assurances can be given that the Company’s beliefs or expectations will be fulfilled, since qualification as a REIT depends on the Company satisfying numerous asset, income and distribution tests which depends, in part, on the Company’s operating results. To qualify as a REIT, the Company must meet a number of organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement that the Company distributes annually to its stockholders at least 90 % of the Company’s REIT taxable income prior to the deduction for dividends paid. To the extent that the Company distributes less than 100 % of its REIT taxable income in any tax year (taking into account any distributions made in a subsequent tax year under Sections 857(b)(9) or 858 of the Code), the Company will pay tax at regular corporate rates on that undistributed portion. Furthermore, if the Company distributes less than the sum of 1) 85 % of its ordinary income for the calendar year, 2) 95 % of its capital gain net income for the calendar year, and 3) any undistributed shortfall from its prior calendar year (the “Required Distribution”) to its stockholders during any calendar year (including any distributions declared by the last day of the calendar year but paid in the subsequent year), then it is required to pay a non-deductible excise tax equal to 4 % of any shortfall between the Required Distribution and the amount that was actually distributed. The 90 % distribution requirement does not require the distribution of net capital gains. However, if the Company elects to retain any of its net capital gain for any tax year, it must notify its stockholders and pay tax at regular corporate rates on the retained net capital gain. The stockholders must include their proportionate share of the retained net capital gain in their taxable income for the tax year, and they are deemed to have paid the REIT’s tax on their proportionate share of the retained capital gain and receive an income tax credit for such amount. Furthermore, such retained capital gain may be subject to the nondeductible 4 % excise tax. If it is determined that the Company’s estimated current year taxable income will be in excess of estimated dividend distributions (including capital gain dividend) for the current year from such income, the Company accrues excise tax on estimated excess taxable income as such taxable income is earned. The annual expense is calculated in accordance with applicable tax regulations. FASB ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes (“ASC 740”), prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the consolidated 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 documented and supported for the taxable years ended December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022. Based on the Company’s evaluation, there is no reserve for any uncertain income tax positions as of March 31, 2024. Accrued interest and penalties, if any, are included within accounts payable and other liabilities in the balance sheets.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements	Recent Accounting Pronouncements In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. This guidance requires public entities to disclose significant expense categories and amounts for each reportable segment, along with information regarding the composition of "other segment items." Additionally, the guidance requires the disclosure of the title and position of the entity's Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”), an explanation of how the CODM utilizes reported profit or loss measures to assess segment performance, and certain segment-related disclosures on an interim basis, which were previously required only annually. ASU 2023-07 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023 and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements. The Company does not expect to early adopt and will add the necessary disclosures upon adoption. In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09—Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (“ASU 2023-09”). ASU 2023-09 improves the transparency of income tax disclosures related to rate reconciliation and income taxes. ASU 2023-09 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. For entities other than public business entities, the amendments are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2025. Early adoption is permitted for annual financial statements that have not yet been issued or made available for issuance. The amendments should be applied prospectively, however retrospective application is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the update on the Company’s future consolidated financial statements.

Loan numbering in the table above is maintained from origination for purposes of comparability and may not be sequential due to maturities, payoffs, or refinancings. (2) Certain loans are subject to contractual extension options and may be subject to performance based on other conditions as stipulated in the loan agreement. Actual maturities may differ from contractual maturities stated herein and certain borrowers may have the right to prepay with or without a contractual prepayment penalty. The Company may also extend contractual maturities and amend other terms of the loans in connection with loan modifications. (3) Total Commitment excludes future amounts to be advanced at sole discretion of the lender . (4) "P" = prime rate and depicts floating rate loans that pay interest at the prime rate plus a specific percentage; "PIK" = paid-in-kind interest; subtotal represents weighted average interest rate. (5) P&I = principal and interest. I/O = interest only. P&I loans may include interest only periods for a portion of the loan term. (6) Estimated YTM, calculated on a weighted average principal basis, includes a variety of fees and features that affect the total yield, which may include, but is not limited to, OID, exit fees, prepayment fees, unused fees and contingent features. OID is recognized as a discount to the funded loan principal and is accreted to income over the term of the loan. The estimated YTM calculations require management to make estimates and assumptions, including, but not limited to, the timing and amounts of loan draws on delayed draw loans, the timing and collectability of exit fees, the probability and timing of prepayments and the probability of contingent features occurring. For example, certain credit agreements contain provisions pursuant to which certain PIK interest rates and fees earned by us under such credit agreements will decrease upon the satisfaction of certain specified criteria which we believe may improve the risk profile of the applicable borrower. To be conservative, we have not assumed any prepayment penalties or early payoffs in our estimated YTM calculation. Estimated YTM is based on current management estimates and assumptions, which may change. Actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions. (7) This Loan is subject to a prime rate floor of 3.25 % (8) This Loan is subject to a prime rate floor of 4.00 % (9) This Loan is subject to a prime rate floor of 4.75 % (10) This Loan is subject to a prime rate floor of 5.50 % (11) This Loan is subject to a prime rate floor of 6.25 % (12) This Loan is subject to a prime rate floor of 7.00 % (13) This Loan is subject to a prime rate floor of 7.50 % (14) This Loan is subject to a prime rate floor of 8.00 % (15) This Loan is subject to a prime rate floor of 8.25 % (16) This Loan is subject to a prime rate floor of 8.50 % (17) This Loan is subject to a prime rate cap of 5.85 % (18) The aggregate loan commitment to Loan #3 includes a $ 15.9 million initial commitment which has a base interest rate of 13.625 %, 2.75 % PIK and a second commitment of $ 4.2 million which has an interest rate of 15.00 %, 2.00 % PIK. The statistics presented reflect the weighted average of the terms under all advances for the total aggregate loan commitment.

[1] Total Commitment excludes future amounts to be advanced at sole discretion of the lender . Estimated YTM, calculated on a weighted average principal basis, includes a variety of fees and features that affect the total yield, which may include, but is not limited to, OID, exit fees, prepayment fees, unused fees and contingent features. OID is recognized as a discount to the funded loan principal and is accreted to income over the term of the loan. The estimated YTM calculations require management to make estimates and assumptions, including, but not limited to, the timing and amounts of loan draws on delayed draw loans, the timing and collectability of exit fees, the probability and timing of prepayments and the probability of contingent features occurring. For example, certain credit agreements contain provisions pursuant to which certain PIK interest rates and fees earned by us under such credit agreements will decrease upon the satisfaction of certain specified criteria which we believe may improve the risk profile of the applicable borrower. To be conservative, we have not assumed any prepayment penalties or early payoffs in our estimated YTM calculation. Estimated YTM is based on current management estimates and assumptions, which may change. Actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions. All loans originated prior to April 1, 2021 were purchased from affiliated entities at fair value plus accrued interest on or subsequent to April 1, 2021. Loan numbering in the table above is maintained from origination for purposes of comparability and may not be sequential due to maturities, payoffs, or refinancings. Certain loans are subject to contractual extension options and may be subject to performance based on other conditions as stipulated in the loan agreement. Actual maturities may differ from contractual maturities stated herein and certain borrowers may have the right to prepay with or without a contractual prepayment penalty. The Company may also extend contractual maturities and amend other terms of the loans in connection with loan modifications. "P" = prime rate and depicts floating rate loans that pay interest at the prime rate plus a specific percentage; "PIK" = paid-in-kind interest; subtotal represents weighted average interest rate. This Loan is subject to a prime rate floor of 6.25 % P&I = principal and interest. I/O = interest only. P&I loans may include interest only periods for a portion of the loan term. This Loan is subject to a prime rate cap of 5.85 % The aggregate loan commitment to Loan #3 includes a $ 15.9 million initial commitment which has a base interest rate of 13.625 %, 2.75 % PIK and a second commitment of $ 4.2 million which has an interest rate of 15.00 %, 2.00 % PIK.

Income Tax [Abstract]
Income tax, description	To qualify as a REIT, we must meet a number of organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement that we distribute annually to our stockholders at least 90% of our REIT taxable income prior to the deduction for dividends paid. To the extent that we distribute less than 100% of our REIT taxable income in any tax year (taking into account any distributions made in a subsequent tax year under Sections 857(b)(9) or 858 of the Code), we will pay tax at regular corporate rates on that undistributed portion. Furthermore, if we distribute less than the sum of 1) 85% of our ordinary income for the calendar year, 2) 95% of our capital gain net income for the calendar year, and 3) any undistributed shortfall from our prior calendar year (the “Required Distribution”) to our stockholders during any calendar year (including any distributions declared by the last day of the calendar year but paid in the subsequent year), then we are required to pay a non-deductible excise tax equal to 4% of any shortfall between the Required Distribution and the amount that was actually distributed. The 90% distribution requirement does not require the distribution of net capital gains. However, if we elect to retain any of our net capital gain for any tax year, we must notify our stockholders and pay tax at regular corporate rates on the retained net capital gain. Our stockholders must include their proportionate share of the retained net capital gain in their taxable income for the tax year, and they are deemed to have paid the REIT’s tax on their proportionate share of the retained capital gain. Furthermore, such retained capital gain may be subject to the nondeductible 4% excise tax.
