NORTH HAVEN NET REIT
NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
($ in thousands, except for share and per share data)
1.Organization and Business Purpose
North Haven Net REIT (“we,” “us,” “our,” and the “Company”) was formed on February 6, 2023 as a Maryland statutory trust and intends to qualify as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) for U.S. federal income tax purposes. The Company invests in net lease investments comprised of high-quality commercial real estate assets that are primarily long-term leased under net lease structures to tenants for whom the properties are mission critical, meaning essential to the continuance of their business operations. The Company seeks to create a portfolio diversified across asset class, tenant industry, lease expiration and geography to attempt to mitigate credit risk concentration and volatility resulting from market conditions. In addition, to a lesser extent, the Company also intends to invest on a tactical basis in commercial real estate debt-related assets, which may include first mortgage loans, subordinated mortgage loans, mezzanine loans, preferred equity, real estate-related corporate credit, and commercial mortgage-backed securities, as well as other real estate-related securities (such as common and preferred stock of publicly traded REITs and other real estate companies) and loans. The Company is externally managed by MSREF Real Estate Advisor, Inc. (the “Adviser”), a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Morgan Stanley (NYSE: MS) (“Morgan Stanley”).
The Company is the sole general partner of NH Net REIT Operating Partnership, LP, a Delaware limited partnership (the “Operating Partnership”). The Operating Partnership is consolidated by the Company and substantially all the Company's operations are conducted through the Operating Partnership. The Company owns 99.9% of the Operating Partnership and NH Net REIT Special Limited Partner LP, an affiliate of Morgan Stanley (the “Special Limited Partner”), owns a special limited partner interest in the Operating Partnership.
On January 11, 2024, the Company commenced a continuous, blind-pool private offering (the “Offering”), pursuant to which it offers and sells to a limited number of investors its common shares, including, but not limited to, common shares classified as Class S shares, Class I shares, Class F-S shares, Class F-I shares (Class F-S shares and Class F-I shares together with certain other share classes collectively referred to as “Founder Share Classes”) and Class E shares. The share classes have different upfront selling commissions, dealer manager fees and ongoing shareholder servicing fees, as well as different management fees and performance participation allocations.
The initial per share purchase price for the Company’s common shares in the initial closing of the Offering, which occurred on April 1, 2024, was $20.00 per share, plus applicable upfront selling commissions and dealer manager fees. Thereafter, the purchase price per share for each class of our common shares will vary and will generally equal the Company’s prior month’s net asset value (“NAV”) per share, as calculated monthly, plus applicable upfront selling commissions and dealer manager fees. The calculation of NAV may differ from a similar calculation under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).
As of June 30, 2024, the Company owned four net lease investments in the industrial sector. The Company currently operates in one reportable segment.

2.Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. The condensed consolidated financial statements, including the condensed notes thereto, are unaudited and exclude some of the disclosures required in audited financial statements. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet. Actual results could differ from those estimates. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
We have not presented condensed consolidated statements of operations and condensed consolidated statements of changes in shareholders' equity (deficit) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and a condensed consolidated statement of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2023 because the Company did not have any activity or operations during that period. The Company's results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year or any other future period.
Principles of Consolidation
The Company consolidates all entities in which it has a controlling financial interest through majority ownership or voting rights and variable interest entities whereby the Company is the primary beneficiary. In determining whether the Company has a controlling financial interest in a partially owned entity and the requirement to consolidate the accounts of that entity, the Company considers whether the entity is a variable interest entity (“VIE”) and whether it is the primary beneficiary. The Company is the primary beneficiary of a VIE when it has (i) the power to direct the most significant activities impacting the economic performance of the VIE and (ii) the obligation to absorb losses or receive benefits significant to the VIE.
The Operating Partnership is considered to be a VIE. The Company consolidates this entity as it has the ability to direct the most significant activities of the entity such as purchases, dispositions, financings, budgets, and overall operating plans. The Company meets the VIE disclosure exemption criteria, as the Company’s interest in Operating Partnership is considered a majority voting interest.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents represent cash held in banks, cash on hand, and liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less. The Company may have bank balances in excess of federally insured amounts; however, the Company deposits its cash and cash equivalents with high credit-quality institutions to minimize credit risk exposure. The Company did not hold cash equivalents as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. Income generated on our cash and cash equivalents is recorded in the period in which it is earned under other income in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.
9
Restricted Cash
Restricted cash consists of cash received for subscriptions prior to the date in which subscriptions are effective and shareholders are admitted into the Company. The Company’s restricted cash pertaining to subscriptions received in advance is $117,090 as of June 30, 2024 and is held in a bank account controlled by the Company’s transfer agent but in the name of the Company. There was no restricted cash as of December 31, 2023.
Investments in Real Estate
When acquiring a property, the Company determines whether the acquisition should be accounted for as a business combination or an asset acquisition in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) ASC 805 – “Business Combinations.” For both a business combination and an asset acquisition, the Company records the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the acquisition. For transactions that are business combinations, the Company evaluates the existence of goodwill or a gain from a bargain purchase and expenses acquisition-related costs as incurred. The Company capitalizes acquisition-related costs associated with asset acquisitions. As of June 30, 2024, the Company owned four properties and each acquisition was accounted for as an asset acquisition.
Upon acquisition of a property, the Company assesses the fair value of acquired tangible and intangible assets and assumed liabilities (including land, buildings, above- and below-market leases, in-place leases, and other identified intangible assets and liabilities) and then allocates the purchase price to these acquired assets and assumed liabilities based on respective fair values. The Company bases its fair value assessments on cash flow projections that utilize discount and/or capitalization rates that it deems appropriate, as well as other available market information. Estimates of future cash flows are based on several factors including the historical operating results, known and anticipated trends, and market and economic conditions.
The fair value of the tangible assets of an acquired property considers the value of the property as if it were vacant. Tangible assets include land and improvements, buildings, and site improvements. The Company records acquired above- and below-market leases at their fair values (using a discount rate which reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) equal to the difference between (1) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to each in-place lease and (2) the Company’s estimate of fair market lease rates for each corresponding in-place lease, measured over a period equal to the remaining term of the lease for above-market leases and the initial term plus the term of any below-market fixed rate renewal options for below-market leases. The Company records acquired in-place lease values based on the Company’s evaluation of the specific characteristics of each tenant’s lease. Factors to be considered include estimates of carrying costs during hypothetical expected lease-up periods considering current market conditions, and costs to execute similar leases. In estimating carrying costs, the Company includes real estate taxes, insurance and other operating expenses and estimates of lost rentals at market rates during the expected lease-up periods, depending on local market conditions. In estimating costs to execute similar leases, the Company considers leasing commissions, legal and other related expenses.
Intangible lease assets are recorded net of amortization on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. The amortization of acquired above- and below-market leases is recorded to rental revenue in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations. The amortization of leasing commissions and leases in-place are recorded in depreciation and amortization in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations.
The cost of buildings and improvements includes the purchase price of the Company’s properties and any acquisition-related costs, along with any subsequent improvements to such properties. The Company’s
10
investments in real estate are recorded at cost and are generally depreciated on a straight-line basis over the estimated remaining useful lives of the assets as follows:
Description | Depreciable Life | |||||||
Buildings | 30 - 40 years | |||||||
Building and site improvements | 7 - 15 years | |||||||
Lease intangibles and leasehold improvements | Over lease term |
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company recognized depreciation expense of $540 and $638, respectively, which was recorded as depreciation and amortization in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.
Significant improvements to properties are capitalized within investments in real estate on the Company's condensed consolidated balance sheets whereas repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred and recorded in rental property operating expense in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations.
Real estate investments are evaluated for impairment on a quarterly basis. The Company considers the following factors when performing its impairment analysis: (1) management, having the authority to approve the action, commits to a plan to sell the asset; (2) significant negative industry and economic outlook or trends; (3) expected material costs necessary to extend the life or operate the real estate asset; and (4) its ability to hold and dispose of the real estate asset in the ordinary course of business. A real estate investment is considered impaired when the sum of estimated future undiscounted cash flows to be generated by the real estate investment over the estimated remaining holding period is less than the carrying value of such investment. An impairment charge is recorded equal to the excess of the carrying value of the real estate investment over the fair value. When determining the fair value of a real estate investment, the Company makes certain assumptions including, but not limited to, consideration of projected operating cash flows, comparable selling prices and projected cash flows from the eventual disposition of the real estate asset based upon its estimate of a capitalization rate and discount rate. As of June 30, 2024, the Company has not recorded any impairments on its investments in real estate.
Redeemable Common Shares
We classify common shares held by an affiliate of the Company as redeemable common shares on our condensed consolidated balance sheets at redemption value. Redemption value is determined based on the Company's NAV per share of the applicable share class as of the reporting date. Changes in the value of redeemable common shares are recorded to additional paid-in capital.
Rental Revenue
The Company’s primary source of revenues is rental revenue, which is accounted for under ASC 842–“Leases.” Rental revenue primarily consists of fixed contractual base rent, and, to a lesser extent tenant reimbursements, arising from tenant leases at our properties under operating leases. Rent under leases where collection is deemed probable is recognized as revenue on a straight-line basis, including any determinable rent step-up or abatement provisions, over the non-cancelable term of the related leases. The Company begins to recognize revenue upon the acquisition of the related property or when a tenant takes possession of the leased space. Leases that are that are deemed uncollectible are recognized as a reduction to rental revenue through a reversal of deferred rent. Any future cash receipts on leases that are deemed uncollectible will be recorded as income on a cash basis. The Company evaluates the collectability of receivables related to rental revenue on an individual lease basis. The Company exercises judgment in
11
assessing collectability and considers the length of time a receivable has been outstanding, tenant creditworthiness, payment history, available information about the financial condition of the tenant, and current economic trends, among other factors. As of June 30, 2024, all rent collection was deemed probable.
Income Taxes
The Company intends to make an election to be taxed as a REIT under Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), commencing with its taxable year ending December 31, 2024. If the Company qualifies for taxation as a REIT, the Company generally will not be subject to federal corporate income tax to the extent it distributes 90% of its taxable income to its shareholders. REITs are subject to a number of other organizational and operational requirements. Even if the Company qualifies for taxation as a REIT, it may be subject to certain state and local taxes on its income and property, and federal income and excise taxes on its undistributed income.
Earnings per Share
Basic net income per share is computed by dividing net income for the period by the weighted average number of shares of common shares outstanding during the period. The Company does not have any dilutive securities outstanding that would cause the basic earnings per share and diluted earnings per share to differ.
Organization and Offering Expenses
The Adviser has agreed to advance certain organization, offering expenses and operating expenses on behalf of the Company through April 1, 2025, which is 12 months following the initial closing of the Offering. The Company will reimburse the Adviser for all such advanced expenses ratably over a 60-month period following April 1, 2025.
As of June 30, 2024, the Adviser and its affiliates have incurred organization and offering expenses on the Company’s behalf of approximately $2,158, which is recorded as a liability on the Company's condensed consolidated balance sheets. As of December 31, 2023, the Adviser and its affiliates had incurred organization and offering expenses on the Company’s behalf of approximately $1,800, however these organizational and offering expenses were not recorded in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements because such costs were not the Company’s liability until April 1, 2024, the date on which the Company commenced operations through the initial closing of the Offering and admittance of third-party shareholders.
Organizational expenses are expensed as incurred, and offering expenses are charged to equity. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company recorded organizational expenses of $1,920 in its condensed consolidated statements of operations.
Operating Expenses
The Adviser has agreed to advance certain operating expenses on behalf of the Company through April 1, 2025, which is 12 months following the initial closing of the Offering. The Company will reimburse the Adviser for all such advanced expenses ratably over a 60-month period following April 1, 2025.
As of June 30, 2024, the Adviser and its affiliates have incurred operating expenses on the Company’s behalf of approximately $1,666, which is recorded as a liability on the Company's condensed consolidated balance sheets. As of December 31, 2023, the Adviser and its affiliates has incurred operating expenses on the Company’s behalf of approximately $46, but these operating expenses were not recorded in the
12
accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements because such costs were not the Company’s liability until April 1, 2024, the date on which the Company commenced operations through the initial closing of the Offering and admittance of third-party shareholders.
Operating expenses are expensed in the period in which they are incurred. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company recorded operating expenses of $1,666 as a component of general and administrative expenses in its condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The Company considers the applicability and impact of all accounting standards and pronouncements issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB").
In November 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2023-07, "Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segments Disclosures" ("Topic 280"). Topic 280 enhances disclosures of significant segment expenses and other segment items regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker ("CODM"), extends certain annual disclosures to interim periods and permits more than one measure of segment profit (loss) to be reported under certain conditions. The amendments are effective in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Retrospective adoption to all periods presented is required, and early adoption of the amendments is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of adopting this new guidance on our financial statement disclosures.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, "Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures" ("Topic 740"). Topic 740 modifies the rules on income tax disclosures to require entities to disclose (i) specific categories in the rate reconciliation, (ii) the income (loss) from continuing operations before income tax expense or benefit (separated between domestic and foreign) and (iii) income tax expense or benefit from continuing operations (separated by federal, state and foreign). Topic 740 also requires entities to disclose their income tax payments to international, federal, state and local jurisdictions, among other changes. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted for annual financial statements that have not yet been issued or made available for issuance. This guidance should be applied on a prospective basis, but retrospective application is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of adopting this new guidance on our financial statement disclosures.

7. Redeemable Common Shares and Non-Controlling Interests
On April 1, 2024, MSREI Holding, Inc., an affiliate of the Adviser ("MSREI Holding") purchased 1,225,000 Class E shares of the Company and the Special Limited Partner purchased 25,000 Class E Operating Partnership units, in each case, at a price per share/unit equal to $20.00 (the "Morgan Stanley Equity Investment"). Each of the offers and sales of the shares/units described above was exempt from the registration provisions of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, by virtue of Section 4(a)(2) and/or Rule 506 of Regulation D thereunder.
MSREI Holding and the Special Limited Partner have agreed to hold the Class E shares/Operating Partnership units issued in respect of the Morgan Stanley Equity Investment until the earlier of (i) the first

Following such date, each quarter MSREI Holding and the Special Limited Partner may request, with respect to the Morgan Stanley Equity Investment, that the Company repurchase (each, a “MS Repurchase”), a number of Class E shares/ Operating Partnership units in an amount equal to the amount available under the Company's share repurchase plan’s 5% quarterly cap, but only after the Company first satisfy repurchase requests from all other common shareholders who have properly submitted a repurchase request for such quarter in accordance with the Company's share repurchase plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, for so long as Morgan Stanley or its affiliate acts as investment adviser to the Company, the Company will not effect any MS Repurchase during any quarter in which the full amount of all common shares requested to be repurchased by shareholders other than Morgan Stanley and its affiliates under the Company's share repurchase plan is not repurchased or when the Company's share repurchase plan has been suspended.
As of June 30, 2024, Class E shares held by MSREI Holding and Class E units held by the Special Limited Partner pursuant to the Morgan Stanley Equity Investment are classified in temporary equity because the Company is required to repurchase or redeem, as applicable, these Class E shares / units upon request by the holders, subject to certain limitations and terms set forth in the applicable subscription agreement if certain conditions outside of the control of the Company are met (as discussed above).

Overview
We are a Maryland statutory trust formed on February 6, 2023. Our investment strategy is focused primarily on originating, acquiring, financing and managing a portfolio of high-quality commercial real estate assets that are primarily long-term leased under net lease structures to tenants for whom the properties are mission critical, meaning essential to the continuance of their business operations. We will also prioritize investing in real estate sectors such as industrial (e-commerce), manufacturing (on-shoring and near-shoring) and healthcare (aging demographics). To a lesser extent, we may invest in commercial real estate debt-related assets, which may include first mortgage loans, subordinated mortgage loans, mezzanine loans, preferred equity, real estate-related corporate credit, and commercial mortgage-backed securities (“CMBS”), as well as other real estate-related securities (such as common and preferred stock of publicly traded REITs and other real estate companies) and loans (collectively referred to as, “CRE debt investments”).
We are an externally advised, perpetual-life REIT formed to pursue the following investment objectives:
•Preserve and protect invested capital;
•Provide attractive current income in the form of predictable, stable cash distributions;
•Realize appreciation in NAV from differentiated sourcing, investment selection, structuring and proactive asset management; and
•Provide an investment alternative for shareholders seeking to allocate a portion of their long-term investment portfolios to commercial real estate and private credit funds with the potential for additional upside through real estate tax advantages and appreciation potential, and with potentially lower volatility than publicly-traded real estate companies.
We may not achieve our investment objectives. See “Item 1A, Risk Factors” in our Registration Statement.
We are structured as a non-listed, perpetual-life real estate investment trust ("REIT"), and therefore our securities are not listed on a national securities exchange and, as of the date of this Form 10-Q, there is no plan to list our securities on a national securities exchange. We are organized as a holding company and plan to conduct our business primarily through our various subsidiaries. Commencing with our taxable year ending December 31, 2024, we intend to elect and qualify to be taxed as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code") for U.S. federal income tax purposes and generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income taxes on our taxable income to the extent we annually distribute all of our REIT taxable income to shareholders and maintain our qualification as a REIT.
Our board of trustees will at all times have ultimate oversight and policy-making authority over us, including responsibility for governance, financial controls, compliance and disclosure. Pursuant to an advisory agreement (the “Advisory Agreement”), by and among us, NH Net REIT Operating Partnership, LP, a Delaware limited partnership (the “Operating Partnership”), and MSREF Real Estate Advisor, Inc. (the “Adviser”), a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Morgan Stanley (NYSE: MS) (“Morgan Stanley”), however, we have delegated to the Adviser the authority to source, evaluate and
25
monitor our investment opportunities and make decisions related to the acquisition, management, financing and disposition of our assets, in accordance with our investment objectives, guidelines, policies and limitations, subject to oversight by our board of trustees.
On January 11, 2024, we commenced a continuous, blind pool private offering (the “Offering”) of an unlimited number of our common shares in reliance on an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), by virtue of Section 4(a)(2) and Rule 506 of Regulation D thereunder, to investors that are (i) accredited investors (as defined in Regulation D under the Securities Act) and (ii) in the case of common shares sold outside the United States, to persons that are not “U.S. persons” (as defined in Regulation S under the Securities Act). We intend to sell our common shares in the Offering on a monthly basis. We completed the initial closing of the Offering and our principal operations commenced on April 1, 2024.
We are not aware of any material trends or uncertainties, favorable or unfavorable, other than national economic conditions affecting real estate generally, that may be reasonably anticipated to have a material impact on either capital resources or the revenues or income to be derived from acquiring properties or real estate-related securities, other than those referred to in this Form 10-Q.

Rental Revenue
During the three months ended June 30, 2024, we recorded rental income of $1,250 from our tenants in connection with our four real estate investments. The increase of $873 from the three months ended March 31, 2024 is largely attributable to the Company's purchase of three additional real estate investments in June 2024.
Rental Property Operating
During the three months ended, June 30, 2024, operating expenses in connection with our real estate investments increased by $20. The increase results from an increased number of investments in real estate held during the three months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2024.
27
These expenses are reimbursable by our tenants and those reimbursements are recorded as a component of rental revenue.
Depreciation and Amortization
During the three months ended June 30, 2024, depreciation and amortization in connection with our real estate investments and related leases increased by $647. The increase results from an increased number of investments in real estate held during the three months ended June 30, 2024 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2024.
Management Fee
Certain affiliates of the Company, including the Adviser, will receive fees and compensation in connection with the Offering and ongoing management of the assets of the Company. The Adviser will be paid a management fee equal to (1) 0.50% of NAV for Founder Share Classes and (2) 1.25% of NAV for shares classes other than the Founder Share Classes except Class E shares, in each case, per annum payable monthly. Additionally, to the extent that the Operating Partnership issues Operating Partnership units to parties other than the Company, the Operating Partnership will pay the Adviser a management fee equal to (1) 0.50% of the NAV of the Operating Partnership attributable to Founder Share Class units not held by the Company and (2) 1.25% of NAV of the Operating Partnership attributable to units other than Founder Share Class units not held by the Company except Class E Operating Partnership units, in each case, per annum payable monthly. The management fee will be paid, at the Adviser’s election, in cash, Class E shares or Class E Operating Partnership units, or any combination thereof.
The Adviser has agreed to waive the management fee through April 1, 2025, which is the date that is 12-months following the initial closing of the Offering and as such the Company has not yet incurred a management fee.
Performance Participation Allocation
NH Net REIT Special Limited Partner LP, an affiliate of Morgan Stanley ("Special Limited Partner"), holds a performance participation interest in the Operating Partnership that entitles it to receive in the aggregate an allocation from the Operating Partnership equal to 12.5% of the Total Return with respect to all of the Operating Partnership units, except Class E Operating Partnership units, subject to a 5% Hurdle Amount and a High Water Mark with respect to such class of units, with a Catch-Up (each term as defined in the limited partnership agreement of the Operating Partnership). Such allocation is calculated annually, accrues monthly and paid quarterly. Distributions on the performance participation interest may be payable in cash or Class E Operating Partnership units, or any combination thereof, at the election of the Special Limited Partner.
The Special Limited Partner has agreed to waive distributions with respect to its performance participation interest through April 1, 2025 and as such the Company will not begin making monthly accruals until such date.
Organizational Costs and Operating Expenses
The Adviser has agreed to advance organizational costs and certain operating expenses on the behalf of the Company through April 1, 2025, which is 12 months following the initial closing of the Offering. As of June 30, 2024, the Adviser incurred $1,920 and $1,666 of organizational costs and operating expenses, respectively, and there were no such amounts recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2024 because the Company did not commence its principal operations until April 1, 2024.
28
In April 2024, the Company's board of trustees were granted $79 in aggregate compensation in the form of restricted Class E shares subject to a one year vesting period. During the three months ended June 30, 2024, the Company recognized $20 of compensation expense related to these grants recorded in general and administrative expense in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.
Other Income
During the three months ended June 30, 2024, the Company earned $4,071 in other income, which is primarily comprised of interest income generated on our cash and cash equivalents. We did not record income classified as other income during the three months ended March 31, 2024 because we did not commence our principal operations until April 1, 2024.
Interest Expense
Interest expense decreased by $47 for the three months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2024.
During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company, as borrower, and MSREI Holding, Inc., an affiliate of the Adviser ("MSREI Holding"), as lender, had an uncommitted, unsecured line of credit agreement (the “Warehouse Funding Facility”) in place. The Warehouse Funding Facility had an average outstanding balance of $28,750 of principal outstanding with an average all-in interest rate of 6.83%. The Warehouse Funding Facility was repaid and terminated on April 1, 2024.
During the three months ended June 30, 2024, the Company assumed two amortizing mortgage loans secured by two of its real estate investments with an aggregate principal balance of $61,668 at a fixed rate of 4.02%.

As of June 30, 2024, the Company has two amortizing mortgage loans secured by two of its real estate investments with an aggregate principal balance of $61,668, a fixed rate of 4.02% and maturity of April 1, 2028.
Cash Flows
Cash flows from operating activities were $5,746 for the six months ended June 30, 2024, primarily as a result of rental income generated on our investments in real estate and interest income generated on our cash and cash equivalents.
Cash flows used in investing activities were $89,883 for the six months ended June 30, 2024, relating to acquisition of our investments in real estate.
Cash flows from financing activities were $548,311 for the six months ended June 30, 2024, primarily relating to proceeds from the Offering and mortgage loans assumed in connection with acquiring two investments in real estate.
Critical Accounting Estimates
The preparation of the financial statements in accordance with GAAP involve significant judgments and assumptions and require estimates about matters that are inherently uncertain. These judgments will affect our reported amounts of assets and liabilities and our disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. With different estimates or assumptions, materially different amounts could be reported in our condensed consolidated financial statements. The following is a summary of our significant accounting policies that we believe are the most affected by our judgments, estimates, and assumptions. See “Note 2—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” to our condensed consolidated financial statements in this for further descriptions of the below accounting policies.
Investments in Real Estate
We expect that most of our acquisitions will qualify as asset acquisitions rather than business combinations pursuant to ASC 805–“Business Combinations.” Upon the acquisition of a property, we assess the fair value of the acquired tangible and intangible assets and assumed liabilities (including land, buildings, above- and below-market leases, acquired in-place leases, and other identified intangible assets and assumed liabilities) and we allocate the purchase price to them, on a relative fair value basis. The most significant portion of the allocation is generally to building and land and requires the use of market-based estimates and assumptions. We assess and consider fair value based on estimated cash flow projections that utilize appropriate discount and/or capitalization rates, as well as other available market information. Estimates of future cash flows are based on several factors including the historical operating results, known and anticipated trends, and market and economic conditions.
The fair value of the tangible assets of an acquired property considers the value of the property as if it were vacant. We also consider an allocation of purchase price of acquired intangible assets and liabilities.
Acquired in-place leases that may have a customer relationship intangible value, including (but not limited to) the nature and extent of the existing relationship with the tenants, the tenants’ credit quality and expectations of lease renewals.
Acquired above- and below-market leases are recorded at their fair values (using a discount rate which reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) equal to the difference between (1) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to each in-place lease and (2) management’s estimate of fair market lease rates
32
for each corresponding in-place lease, measured over a period equal to the remaining term of the lease for above-market leases and the initial term plus the term of any below-market fixed rate renewal options for below-market leases.
Other intangible assets acquired include amounts for in-place lease values that are based on our evaluation of the specific characteristics of each tenant’s lease. Factors to be considered include estimates of carrying costs during hypothetical expected lease-up periods considering current market conditions, and costs to execute similar leases. In estimating carrying costs, we include real estate taxes, insurance and other operating expenses and estimates of lost rentals at market rates during the expected lease-up periods, depending on local market conditions. In estimating costs to execute similar leases, we consider leasing commissions, legal and other related expenses.
Impairment of Investments in Real Estate
Once real estate assets have been recorded, they are subsequently evaluated for impairment on a quarterly basis. A real estate asset is considered impaired when the sum of estimated future undiscounted cash flows to be generated by the real estate asset over the estimated remaining holding period is less than the carrying value of such real estate asset. An impairment charge is recorded equal to the excess of the carrying value of the real estate asset over the fair value. When determining the fair value of a real estate asset for the purpose of assessing impairment, we make certain assumptions including, but not limited to: consideration of projected operating cash flows, intended holding period of the real estate, comparable selling prices and projected cash flows from the eventual disposition of the real estate based upon our estimate of a capitalization rate and discount rate. While we exercise significant judgment in generating our assumptions, the asset's fair value is subject to uncertainty, as actual operating cash flows and disposition proceeds could differ from those assumed in our valuations. Additionally, the output is sensitive to the assumptions used in calculating any potential impairment.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
See “Note 2—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” to our condensed consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for a discussion concerning recent accounting pronouncements.
ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
The primary components of our market risk are related to interest rates, credit spreads, credit market values, liquidity and foreign currency exchange rates. While we do not seek to avoid risk completely, we believe that risk can be quantified from historical experience, and we seek to actively manage that risk, to earn sufficient compensation to justify taking those risks and to maintain capital levels consistent with the risks we undertake.
Interest Rate Risk
Interest rate risk is highly sensitive to many factors, including governmental, monetary and tax policies, domestic and international economic and political considerations, and other factors beyond our control. Our net interest income is exposed to interest rate volatility primarily as a result of the floating rate nature of the investments we hold and the financing we place on them. Additionally, we may use company-level facilities featuring floating interest rates for liquidity and working capital purposes. Furthermore, we may make investments in fixed and floating rate debt securities; the value of our positions may increase or decrease depending on interest rate movements. Finally, interest rate changes may impact the demand for loans and the availability of financing needed to expand our investment portfolio.
33
A rise in the general level of interest rates can be expected to lead to higher debt service payment requirements relative to any variable rate investments we hold and to declines in the value of any fixed rate investments we may hold. Rising interest rates carry default risk to our borrowers, because cash flows from underlying properties may fall below the debt service payments due to us on the investments, triggering borrower liquidity covenants. Therefore, we expect to protect property cash flows by requiring borrowers to purchase interest rate caps, which provides a hedge against rising interest rates, whereby the borrower will receive excess cash if interest rates exceed predetermined strike prices. Furthermore, rising interest rates also cause our overall cost of borrowing to increase, partially or fully, offsetting any increase in elevated debt service payments received on our variable rate investments. In general, we will seek to match the interest rate characteristics of our investments with the interest rate characteristics of any related financing obligations. In instances where the interest rate characteristics of an investment and the related financing obligation are not matched, we may mitigate such interest rate risk through the utilization of interest rate derivatives of the same duration. Given our target leverage ratios, an increase in interest rates may result in an increase in our net investment income and the amount of the performance participation allocation payable to the Special Limited Partner.
A decline in interest rates can be expected to lead to lower debt service payments received from any variable rate investments we may hold, decreases in the interest income earned on any floating rate investments we hold, and increases in the value of any fixed rate investments we hold. To mitigate the impact of reduced earnings as a result of declining interest rates, we expect to structure interest rate floors into each loan where the borrower will be required to pay minimum interest payments should interest rates fall below a predetermined rate. Additionally, reduced interest rates also cause our overall cost of borrowings to decrease. Because our borrowings do not typically feature interest rate floors, but our variable rate investments feature minimum interest payments due to us, declining interest rates may result in an increase to the Company’s net interest income and an increase in the amount of the performance participation allocation payable to the Special Limited Partner.
Credit Spread Risk
Credit spread risk is the risk that interest rate spreads between two different financial instruments will change. In general, U.S. fixed-rate commercial mortgage loans and CMBS are priced based on a spread to U.S. Treasury securities or interest rate swaps. We will generally benefit if credit spreads narrow during the time that we hold a portfolio of mortgage loans, CMBS and/or collateralized loan obligations ("CLO") investments, and we may experience losses if credit spreads widen during the time that we hold a portfolio of mortgage loans, CMBS and/or CLO investments. We actively monitor our exposure to changes in credit spreads and we may enter into credit total return swaps or take positions in other credit-related derivative instruments to moderate our exposure to losses associated with a widening of credit spreads.
Credit Risk
We are exposed to credit risk in our investments with respect to a borrower’s ability to make required debt service payments to us and repay the unpaid principal balance in accordance to the terms of the loan agreement. We manage this risk by conducting a credit analysis prior to making an investment and by actively monitoring our portfolio and the underlying credit quality, including subordination and diversification, of our investments on an ongoing basis. In addition, we re-evaluate the credit risk inherent in our investments on a regular basis taking into consideration a number of fundamental macro-economic factors such as gross domestic product, unemployment, interest rates, capital markets activity, retail sales, store closing/openings, corporate earnings, housing inventory, affordability and regional home price trends.
34
We are exposed to credit risk with respect to the tenants that occupy properties that serve as collateral to our investments. To mitigate this risk, we seek to avoid large single tenant exposure and we undertake a credit evaluation of major tenants prior to making a loan. This analysis includes extensive due diligence of a potential tenant’s creditworthiness and business, as well as an assessment of the strategic importance of the property to the tenant’s core business operations.
Finally, we may be exposed to counterparty credit risk under the terms of a derivative contract. If the fair value of a derivative contract is positive, the counterparty will owe us, which creates credit risk for us. If the fair value of a derivative contract is negative, we will owe the counterparty and, therefore, do not have credit risk. We may seek to mitigate the credit risk associated with derivative instruments by entering into transactions with high-quality counterparties.
Market Value Risks
We may also be exposed to market value risk with respect to the fair value of our investments, including debt securities, and borrowings due to changes in market conditions, including credit spreads, interest rates, property cash flows, and commercial property values that serve as collateral. We seek to manage our exposure to market risk by originating or acquiring investments secured by different property types located in diverse, but liquid markets, with stable credit ratings. The fair value of our investments may fluctuate, therefore the amount we will realize upon any repayment, sale, or an alternative liquidation event is unknown.
Commercial property values are subject to volatility and may be adversely affected by a number of factors, including: national, regional and local economic conditions; local real estate conditions; changes or continued weakness in specific industry segments; construction quality, age and design; demographic factors; and retroactive changes to building or similar codes and/or tax and legal considerations. Changes in commercial property values are difficult to predict with accuracy. We model a range of valuation scenarios and the resulting impacts to our investments.
Liquidity Risk
Market disruptions may lead to a significant decline in transaction activity in all or a significant portion of the asset classes in which we intend to invest and may at the same time lead to a significant contraction in short-term and long-term debt and equity funding sources. A decline in liquidity of real estate and real estate-related investments, as well as a lack of availability of observable transaction data and inputs, may make it more difficult to sell our investments or determine their fair values. As a result, we may be unable to sell investments, or only be able to sell investments at a price that may be materially different from the fair values presented. Also, in such conditions, there is no guarantee that the Company’s borrowing arrangements or other arrangements for obtaining leverage will continue to be available or, if available, will be available on terms and conditions acceptable to us. In addition, a decline in market value of our assets may have particular adverse consequences in instances where we borrowed money based on the fair value of our assets. A decrease in the market value of the our assets may result in the lender requiring it to post additional collateral or otherwise sell assets at a time when it may not be in our best interest to do so.
Foreign Currency Risk
Should we acquire any loans and investments that are denominated in a foreign currency are also subject to risks related to fluctuations in exchange rates. We generally expect to mitigate this exposure by matching the currency of our foreign currency assets to the currency of the borrowings that finance those
35
assets. As a result, we expect to substantially reduce our exposure to changes in portfolio value related to changes in foreign exchange rates.
We intend to hedge our net currency exposures in a prudent manner. In doing so, we generally expect to structure our foreign currency hedges so that the notional values and expiration dates of our hedges approximate the amounts and timing of future payments we expect to receive on the related investments. However, our currency hedging strategies may not eliminate all of our currency risk due to, among other things, uncertainties in the timing and/or amounts of payments received on the related investments, and/or unequal, inaccurate, or unavailable hedges to perfectly offset changes in future exchange rates. Additionally, we may be required under certain circumstances to collateralize our currency hedges for the benefit of the hedge counterparty, which could adversely affect our liquidity.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
An evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our “disclosure controls and procedures” (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (as amended, the “Exchange Act”), as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q was made under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”) and Head of Capital Markets, and our Chief Accounting Officer (“CAO”) and Treasurer. Based upon this evaluation, our CFO and Head of Capital Markets, and our CAO and Treasurer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (a) are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the SEC rules and forms and (b) include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CFO and Head of Capital Markets, and our CAO and Treasurer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurances of achieving the desired control objectives.
Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in our “internal control over financial reporting” (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act) that occurred during our most recent quarter to which this report relates that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Share Repurchase Plan
Our board of trustees adopted a share repurchase plan (the “Share Repurchase Plan”), pursuant to which shareholders may request on a quarterly basis that the Company repurchase all or any portion of their common shares, subject to certain limitations as set forth therein. The aggregate NAV of total repurchases of Class T shares, Class S shares, Class D shares, Class I shares, Class F-T shares, Class F-S shares, Class F-D shares, Class F-I shares and Class E shares (including repurchases at certain non-U.S. investor access funds primarily created to hold shares of our shares) is limited to no more than 5% of our aggregate NAV per calendar quarter (measured using the average aggregate NAV as of the end of each of the immediately preceding three months). Shares or units issued to the Adviser and the Special Limited Partner pursuant to the Advisory Agreement or with respect to the performance participation allocation, respectively, are not subject to these repurchase limitations. We are not obligated to repurchase any shares and may choose to repurchase only some, or even none, of the shares that have been requested to be repurchased in any particular quarter in our discretion. In addition, our ability to fulfill repurchase requests is subject to a number of limitations. As a result, share repurchases may not be available each quarter. Under our share repurchase plan, to the extent we choose to repurchase shares in any particular quarter, we will only repurchase shares as of the opening of the last business day of that quarter (each such date, a “Repurchase Date”). Repurchases will be made at the transaction price in effect on the Repurchase Date, except that shares that have not been outstanding for at least one year will be repurchased at 98% of the
37
transaction price. The one-year holding period is measured as of the subscription closing date immediately following the prospective repurchase date.
