At September 30, 2026, the loan and investment portfolio’s unpaid principal balance ("UPB"), excluding loan loss reserves, was $12.00 billion, with a weighted average interest rate of 6.54%, compared to $12.11 billion and 6.50% at June 30, 2026. Including certain fees earned and costs associated with the loan and investment portfolio, the weighted average interest rate was 6.97% at September 30, 2026, compared to 6.95% at June 30, 2026.
The average balance of the Company’s loan and investment portfolio during the third quarter of 2026, excluding loan loss reserves, was $12.11 billion with a weighted average yield of 6.84%, compared to $12.08 billion and 7.21% for the second quarter of 2026. The decrease in the weighted average yield was primarily due to additional delinquencies and rate modifications in the third quarter of 2026.
During the third quarter of 2026, the Company recorded a $53.0 million net provision for loan losses associated with CECL. At September 30, 2026, the Company’s total allowance for loan losses was $210.1 million. The Company had thirty-two non-performing loans with a UPB of $647.6 million, before related loan loss reserves of $41.9 million, compared to nineteen non-performing loans with a UPB of $428.8 million, before loan loss reserves of $31.1 million at June 30, 2026.

Financing Activity
The balance of debt that finances the Company’s loan and investment portfolio at September 30, 2026 was $10.75 billion with a weighted average interest rate including fees of 6.69%, as compared to $10.48 billion and a rate of 6.38% at June 30, 2026.
The average balance of debt that finances the Company’s loan and investment portfolio for the third quarter of 2026 was $10.70 billion, as compared to $10.51 billion for the second quarter of 2026. The average cost of borrowings for the third quarter of 2026 was 6.66%, compared to 6.56% for the second quarter of 2026. The increase in average cost was primarily due to the convertible senior unsecured notes offering, as well as an increase in the average SOFR rate in the third quarter of 2026.
The Company completed an $825.0 million collateralized securitization secured initially by a portfolio of real estate related assets and cash. Investment grade-rated notes totaling $730.1 million were issued, and the Company retained subordinate interests in the issuing vehicle of $112.4 million, including $17.5 million of the investment grade notes. The facility has a two and a half year asset replenishment period and an initial weighted average interest rate of the notes issued to third parties of 1.70% plus term SOFR, excluding fees and transaction costs.

(1)Amounts are attributable to common stockholders and OP Unit holders. The OP Units are redeemable for cash, or at the Company's option for shares of the Company's common stock on a one-for-one basis.
The Company is presenting distributable earnings because management believes it is an important supplemental measure of the Company's operating performance and is useful to investors, analysts and other parties in the evaluation of REITs and their ability to provide dividends to stockholders. Dividends are one of the principal reasons investors invest in REITs. To maintain REIT status, REITs are required to distribute at least 90% of their REIT-taxable income. The Company considers distributable earnings in determining its quarterly dividend and believes that, over time, distributable earnings is a useful indicator of the Company's dividends per share.
The Company defines distributable earnings as net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders computed in accordance with GAAP, adjusted for accounting items such as depreciation and amortization (adjusted for unconsolidated joint ventures), non-cash stock-based compensation expense, income from MSRs, amortization and write-offs of MSRs, gains/losses on derivative instruments primarily associated with Private Label loans not yet sold and securitized, changes in fair value of GSE-related derivatives that temporarily flow through earnings, deferred tax provision (benefit), CECL provisions for credit losses (adjusted for realized losses as described below), gains/losses on the receipt of real estate from the settlement of loans and subsequent impairment losses on real estate owned prior to the sale of the real estate. The Company also adds back one-time charges such as acquisition costs and one-time gains/losses on the early extinguishment of debt and redemption of preferred stock.
The Company reduces distributable earnings for realized losses in the period management determines that a loan is deemed nonrecoverable in whole or in part. Loans are deemed nonrecoverable upon the earlier of: (1) when the loan receivable is repaid, or in the case of foreclosure, when the underlying asset is sold at which time any impairments and/or cumulative depreciation expense are realized; or (2) when management determines that it is nearly certain that all amounts due will not be collected. The realized loss amount is equal to the difference between the cash received, or expected to be received, and the book value of the asset.

Distributable earnings is not intended to be an indication of the Company's cash flows from operating activities (determined in accordance with GAAP) or a measure of its liquidity, nor is it entirely indicative of funding the Company's cash needs, including its ability to make cash distributions. The Company's calculation of distributable earnings may be different from the calculations used by other companies and, therefore, comparability may be limited.
