2 Earnings available
for distribution ("EAD") and cash available for distribution
("CAD") are non-GAAP measures. Beginning in the second quarter of
2024, EAD per diluted common share and CAD per diluted common share
are based on adjusted weighted average common shares outstanding -
diluted. Adjusted weighted average common shares outstanding -
diluted is a non-GAAP measure. For a discussion of why we consider
these non-GAAP measures useful and reconciliations of these
non-GAAP measures, see the "Reconciliations of Non-GAAP Financial
Measures" and "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" sections of this
release.

September 30, 2024; and excluding the common stock investments,
preferred stock investment, the Hudson Montford and Alexander at
the District multifamily properties. CMBS B-Pieces reflected on an
unconsolidated basis.

4 Loan to
value is generally based on the initial loan amount divided by the
as-is appraised value as of the date the loan was originated or by
the current principal amount as of the date of the most recent
as-is appraised value. For our CMBS B-Pieces, LTV is based on the
weighted-average LTV of the underlying loan pool.

attributable to common stockholders in 4Q 2024 is estimated to be
between $16.1MM and $18.4MM. See reconciliations below.

Forward-Looking Statements
This press release contains "forward-looking statements" within
the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995
that are based on management's current expectations, assumptions
and beliefs. Forward-looking statements can often be identified by
words such as "anticipate", "believe," "estimate", "expect,"
"intend," "may", "should" and similar expressions, and variations
or negatives of these words. These forward-looking statements
include, but are not limited to, statements regarding the Company's
business, strategy and industry in general, fourth quarter 2024
guidance, including net income, net income attributable to common
stockholders, EAD, CAD, EAD and CAD per diluted common share and
related coverage ratios, assumptions and estimates and the
Company's intent to not settle Series B Preferred redemptions in
shares of common stock when the Company's common stock price is
below book value. They are not guarantees of future results and
forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties and
assumptions that could cause actual results to differ materially
from those expressed in any forward-looking statement, including
those described in greater detail in our filings with the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), particularly those
described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K and Quarterly Reports
on Form 10-Q. Readers should not place undue reliance on any
forward-looking statements and are encouraged to review the
Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K and the Company's other
filings with the SEC for a more complete discussion of risks and
other factors that could affect any forward-looking statement. The
statements made herein speak only as of the date of this press
release and except as required by law, the Company does not
undertake any obligation to publicly update or revise any
forward-looking statements.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release contains non-GAAP financial measures. A
"non-GAAP financial measure" is defined as a numerical measure of a
company's financial performance that excludes or includes amounts
so as to be different than the most directly comparable measure
calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP in the statements
of income, balance sheets or statements of cash flows of the
Company. The non-GAAP financial measures used within this press
release are EAD, CAD, EAD and CAD per diluted common share and
adjusted weighted average common shares outstanding - diluted.
EAD is defined as net income (loss) attributable to our common
stockholders computed in accordance with GAAP, including realized
gains and losses not otherwise included in net income (loss),
excluding any unrealized gains or losses or other similar non-cash
items that are included in net income (loss) for the applicable
reporting period, regardless of whether such items are included in
other comprehensive income (loss), or in net income (loss) and
adding back amortization of stock-based compensation. Net income
(loss) attributable to common stockholders may also be adjusted for
the effects of certain GAAP adjustments and transactions that may
not be indicative of our current operations. In addition, EAD in
this press release includes the dilutive effect of non-controlling
interests. We use EAD to evaluate our performance and to assess our
long-term ability to pay distributions. We believe providing EAD as
a supplement to GAAP net income (loss) to our investors is helpful
to their assessment of our performance and our long-term ability to
pay distributions. We also use EAD as a component of the management
fee paid to our external manager. EAD does not represent net income
or cash flows from operating activities and should not be
considered as an alternative to GAAP net income, an indication of
our GAAP cash flows from operating activities, a measure of our
liquidity or an indication of funds available for our cash needs.
Our computation of EAD may not be comparable to EAD reported by
other REITs. Starting in the third quarter of 2023, the Company has
adjusted EAD to remove the income/(losses) from equity method
investments as they represent changes in the equity value of our
investment rather than distributable earnings. The Company will
include income from equity method investments to the extent that we
receive cash distributions and upon realizing gains and/or
losses.
We calculate CAD by adjusting EAD by adding back amortization of
premiums, depreciation and amortization of real estate investment
and amortization of deferred financing costs and by removing
accretion of discounts. We use CAD to evaluate our performance and
our current ability to pay distributions. We also believe that
providing CAD as a supplement to GAAP net income (loss) to our
investors is helpful to their assessment of our performance and our
current ability to pay distributions. CAD does not represent net
income or cash flows from operating activities and should not be
considered as an alternative to GAAP net income, an indication of
our GAAP cash flows from operating activities, a measure of our
liquidity or an indication of funds available for our cash needs.
Our computation of CAD may not be comparable to CAD reported by
other REITs.
Adjusted weighted average common shares outstanding - diluted is
calculating by subtracting the dilutive effect of potential
redemptions of Series B Preferred shares for shares of our common
stock from weighted average common shares outstanding - diluted. We
believe providing adjusted weighted average common shares
outstanding - diluted to our investors is helpful in their
assessment of our performance without the potential dilutive
effective of the Series B Preferred shares. We have the right to
redeem the Series B Preferred shares for cash or shares of our
common stock. Additionally, Series B Preferred redemptions are
capped at 2% of the outstanding Series B Preferred shares per
month, 5% per quarter and 20% per year. The Company maintains
sufficient liquidity to pay cash to cover any redemptions up to the
quarterly redemption cap. Further, it is the Company's intent to
not settle Series B Preferred redemptions in shares of common stock
when the Company's common stock price is below book value.
Adjusted weighted average common shares outstanding – diluted
should not be considered as an alternative to the GAAP measure. Our
computation of adjusted weighted average common shares outstanding
– diluted may not be comparable to adjusted weighted average common
shares outstanding - diluted reported by other companies.
