Granite Point Mortgage Trust Inc. Reports First Quarter 2021
Financial Results and Post Quarter-End Update
NEW YORK, May 6, 2021 – Granite Point Mortgage Trust Inc. (NYSE: GPMT) ("GPMT," "Granite Point" or the "Company") today announced its financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2021, and provided an update on its activities subsequent to quarter-end. A presentation containing first quarter 2021 financial highlights and activity post quarter-end can be viewed at www.gpmtreit.com.
First Quarter 2021 Activity
•GAAP net income of $28.0 million, or $0.51 per basic share, inclusive of $0.17 per basic share release of prior CECL reserves.
•Distributable Earnings(1) of $20.7 million, or $0.38 per basic share.
•Net interest income of $27.8 million.
•Book value of $17.22 per common share, inclusive of $(1.14) per share of allowance for credit losses.
•Declared and paid a cash dividend of $0.25 per common share for the first quarter of 2021.
•At March 31, 2021, carried an allowance for credit losses of $63.1 million (or 1.46% of total portfolio commitments).
•Received loan repayments and principal amortization of $101.6 million in UPB.
•Funded $37.3 million of principal balance on existing loan commitments.
•Portfolio 100% CRE loans with an outstanding principal balance of $3.9 billion and $4.3 billion in total commitments, comprised of 99% senior first mortgage loans and over 98% floating rate loans.
•Portfolio has a weighted average stabilized LTV of 63.3%(2), a weighted average yield at origination of LIBOR + 4.17%(3) and a weighted average LIBOR floor on the loans of 1.57%.
•Closed a $349 million non-mark-to-market and term-matched financing with Goldman Sachs Bank USA, which refinanced loans previously funded on the Goldman Sachs repurchase facility.
Post Quarter-End Update
•Current forward pipeline of senior CRE loans with total commitments of over $145 million and initial fundings of over $105 million, which have either closed or are in the closing process, subject to fallout.
•Current liquidity of approximately $228.9 million(4) in cash on hand; option to borrow an additional $75 million in proceeds under the senior term loan facilities through September 2021.
•Since quarter end, funded approximately $9.6 million of principal balance on existing loan commitments and realized approximately $120.7 million of loan repayments.(4)
•On May 5, 2021, priced GPMT 2021-FL3, a $824 million CRE CLO with an initial advance rate of 83.25% and a weighted average interest rate at issuance of LIBOR + 1.62%, before transaction costs. Upon closing, GPMT expects its percentage of credit non-mark-to-market financing to increase to approximately 70% of aggregate loan-level borrowings.
“Granite Point is off to a great start in 2021, generating strong financial results and successfully executing on our liabilities management strategy while restarting new loan originations,” stated Jack Taylor, Granite Point’s President, Chief Executive Officer and Director. “Continued strong performance of our investment portfolio helped generate solid earnings that were well in excess of our dividend and drove growth in our book value per share. Combined with our term financing facility closed in February, our recent $824 million CRE CLO further diversifies our sources of funding, lowers our cost of funds and increases our percentage of non-mark-to-market loan-level financing to approximately 70%, while releasing additional liquidity to support growth in new loan originations. Our company is well-positioned to continue the positive momentum and take advantage of attractive investment opportunities in the market.”
(1)Please see footnote (1) on page 6 for Distributable Earnings definition and a reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial information.
(2)Stabilized loan-to-value ratio (LTV) is calculated as the fully funded loan amount (plus any financing that is pari passu with or senior to such loan), including all contractually provided for future fundings, divided by the as stabilized value (as determined in conformance with USPAP) set forth in the original appraisal. As stabilized value may be based on certain assumptions, such as future construction completion, projected re-tenanting, payment of tenant improvement or leasing commissions allowances or free or abated rent periods, or increased tenant occupancy.
(3)Yield includes net origination fees and exit fees, but does not include future fundings, and is expressed as a monthly equivalent yield.
(4)As of May 5, 2021.

Forward-Looking Statements
This press release contains, or incorporates by reference, not only historical information, but also forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements involve numerous risks and uncertainties. Our actual results may differ from our beliefs, expectations, estimates and projections and, consequently, you should not rely on these forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. Forward-looking statements are not historical in nature and can be identified by words such as “anticipate,” “estimate,” “will,” “should,” “expect,” “target,” “believe,” “outlook,” “potential,” “continue,” “intend,” “seek,” “plan,” “goals,” “future,” “likely,” “may” and similar expressions or their negative forms, or by references to strategy, plans or intentions. By their nature, forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, are not statements of historical facts or guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks, uncertainties, assumptions or changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict or quantify, in particular those related to the COVID-19 pandemic, including the ultimate impact of COVID-19 on our business, financial performance and operating results. Our expectations, beliefs and estimates are expressed in good faith and we believe there is a reasonable basis for them. However, there can be no assurance that management's expectations, beliefs and estimates will prove to be correct or be achieved, and actual results may vary materially from what is expressed in or indicated by the forward-looking statements.
These forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties, including, among other things, those described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 and any subsequent Form 10-Q and Form 8-K filings made with the SEC, under the caption “Risk Factors.” These risks may also be further heightened by the continued and evolving impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and we undertake no obligation to update or revise any such forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
This press release is for informational purposes only and shall not constitute, or form a part of, an offer to sell or buy or the solicitation of an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to disclosing financial results calculated in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), this press release and the accompanying earnings presentation present non-GAAP financial measures, such as Distributable Earnings and Distributable Earnings per basic common share, that exclude certain items. Granite Point management believes that these non-GAAP measures enable it to perform meaningful comparisons of past, present and future results of the Company’s core business operations, and uses these measures to gain a comparative understanding of the Company’s operating performance and business trends. The non-GAAP financial measures presented by the Company represent supplemental information to assist investors in analyzing the results of its operations. However, because these measures are not calculated in accordance with GAAP, they should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, the financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. The Company’s GAAP financial results and the reconciliations from these results should be carefully evaluated. See the GAAP to non-GAAP reconciliation table on page 6 of this release.

(1)Beginning with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, and for all subsequent reporting periods ending on or after December 31, 2020, we have elected to present Distributable Earnings, a measure that is not prepared in accordance with GAAP, as a supplemental method of evaluating our operating performance. Distributable Earnings replace our prior presentation of Core Earnings with no changes to the definition. In order to maintain our status as a REIT, we are required to distribute at least 90% of our taxable income as dividends. Distributable Earnings is intended to serve as a general proxy for our taxable income, though it is not a perfect substitute for it, and, as such, is considered a key indicator of our ability to generate sufficient income to pay our common dividends and in determining the amount of such dividends, which is the primary focus of income-oriented investors who comprise a meaningful segment of our stockholder base. We believe providing Distributable Earnings on a supplemental basis to our net income (loss) and cash flow from operating activities, as determined in accordance with GAAP, is helpful to stockholders in assessing the overall performance of our business.
We use Distributable Earnings to evaluate our performance excluding the effects of certain transactions and GAAP adjustments we believe are not necessarily indicative of our current loan portfolio and operations. For reporting purposes, we define Distributable Earnings as net (loss) income attributable to our stockholders, computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding: (i) non-cash equity compensation expense; (ii) depreciation and amortization; (iii) any unrealized gains (losses) or other similar 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 for such period); and (iv) certain non-cash items and one-time expenses. Distributable Earnings may also be adjusted from time to time for reporting purposes to exclude one-time events pursuant to changes in GAAP and certain other material non-cash income or expense items approved by a majority of our independent directors. The exclusion of depreciation and amortization from the calculation of Distributable Earnings only applies to debt investments related to real estate to the extent we foreclose upon the property or properties underlying such debt investments.
While Distributable Earnings excludes the impact of the unrealized non-cash current provision for credit losses, we expect to only recognize such potential credit losses in Distributable Earnings if and when such amounts are deemed non-recoverable. This is generally at the time a loan is repaid, or in the case of foreclosure, when the underlying asset is sold, but nonrecoverability may also be concluded if, in our determination, it is nearly certain that all amounts due will not be collected. The realized loss amount reflected in Distributable Earnings will equal the difference between the cash received, or expected to be received, and the carrying value of the asset, and is reflective of our economic experience as it relates to the ultimate realization of the loan. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, we recorded a $9.1 million of provision for credit losses, which has been excluded from Distributable Earnings consistent with other unrealized gains (losses) and other non-cash items pursuant to our existing policy for reporting Distributable Earnings as referenced above.
Distributable Earnings does not represent net (loss) income or cash flow from operating activities and should not be considered as an alternative to GAAP net (loss) income, or an indication of our GAAP cash flows from operations, a measure of our liquidity, or an indication of funds available for our cash needs. In addition, our methodology for calculating Distributable Earnings may differ from the methodologies employed by other companies to calculate the same or similar supplemental performance measures, and, accordingly, our reported Distributable Earnings may not be comparable to the Distributable Earnings reported by other companies.

Q1 2021 Portfolio Developments 10 ASSET MANAGEMENT • We have been working closely with our borrowers to provide them with short-term relief to help manage through market dislocations and business interruptions at their properties. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, we modified 9 loans with an aggregate principal balance of $395.6 million. Most of these modifications were related to loans that had been previously amended. OTHER PORTFOLIO DEVELOPMENTS • During the three months ended December, 31 2020, a $67.3 million first mortgage loan collateralized by a hotel property located in the Midwest was downgraded to a risk rating of “5” from a risk rating of “4”. The collateral property’s cash flows have been adversely affected by market conditions driven by the pandemic and the related significant decline in business travel. Accordingly, this loan was assessed individually in accordance with ASU 2016-03. As of March 31, 2021, an allowance for credit loss of $8.3 million was recorded for this loan. The loan had been previously modified, including a deferral and capitalization of interest of approximately $2.8 million as of March 31, 2021. During the fourth quarter, we negotiated with the borrower a new short-term extension of the prior modification, which was accounted for as a TDR under GAAP. We continue to evaluate a variety of the potential options with respect to the resolution of this loan, which, among other things, may include a sale of the property or the loan, or a negotiated deed-in-lieu of foreclosure. This loan was current on its contractual interest payments as of March 31, 2021. • During the three months ended March, 31, 2021, a $22.3 million first mortgage loan collateralized by a mixed-use (retail and office) property located in the Northeast was on nonaccrual status due to the adverse impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. As of March 31, 2021, the carrying value of this loan was $19.3 million. The loan was assigned a risk rating of “4” at March 31, 2021, unchanged from the prior quarter. • On November 9, 2020, a $40.0 million first mortgage loan collateralized by a student housing property located in the Midwest reached its initial maturity without satisfaction of extension conditions. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, this loan was modified and its maturity was extended to November 9, 2021. The loan was assigned a risk rating of “4” at March 31, 2021, unchanged from the prior quarter.

▪ Beginning with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, and for all subsequent reporting periods ending on or after December 31, 2020, we have elected to present Distributable Earnings, a measure that is not prepared in accordance with GAAP, as a supplemental method of evaluating our operating performance. Distributable Earnings replaces our prior presentation of Core Earnings with no changes to the definition. In order to maintain our status as a REIT, we are required to distribute at least 90% of our taxable income as dividends. Distributable Earnings is intended to serve as a general proxy for our taxable income, though it is not a perfect substitute for it, and, as such, is considered a key indicator of our ability to generate sufficient income to pay our common dividends and in determining the amount of such dividends, which is the primary focus of income-oriented investors who comprise a meaningful segment of our stockholder base. We believe providing Distributable Earnings on a supplemental basis to our net income (loss) and cash flow from operating activities, as determined in accordance with GAAP, is helpful to stockholders in assessing the overall performance of our business. ▪ We use Distributable Earnings to evaluate our performance excluding the effects of certain transactions and GAAP adjustments we believe are not necessarily indicative of our current loan portfolio and operations. For reporting purposes, we define Distributable Earnings as net income (loss) attributable to our stockholders, computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding: (i) non-cash equity compensation expense; (ii) depreciation and amortization; (iii) any unrealized gains (losses) or other similar 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 for such period); and (iv) certain non-cash items and one-time expenses. Distributable Earnings may also be adjusted from time to time for reporting purposes to exclude one-time events pursuant to changes in GAAP and certain other material non-cash income or expense items approved by a majority of our independent directors. The exclusion of depreciation and amortization from the calculation of Distributable Earnings only applies to debt investments related to real estate to the extent we foreclose upon the property or properties underlying such debt investments. Distributable Earnings 20

▪ While Distributable Earnings excludes the impact of the unrealized non-cash current provision for credit losses, we expect to only recognize such potential credit losses in Distributable Earnings if and when such amounts are deemed non- recoverable. This is generally at the time a loan is repaid, or in the case of foreclosure, when the underlying asset is sold, but nonrecoverability may also be concluded if, in our determination, it is nearly certain that all amounts due will not be collected. The realized loss amount reflected in Distributable Earnings will equal the difference between the cash received, or expected to be received, and the carrying value of the asset, and is reflective of our economic experience as it relates to the ultimate realization of the loan. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, we recorded a $9.1 million benefit from provision for credit losses, which has been excluded from Distributable Earnings consistent with other unrealized gains (losses) and other non-cash items pursuant to our existing policy for reporting Distributable Earnings as referenced above. ▪ Distributable Earnings does not represent net income (loss) or cash flow from operating activities and should not be considered as an alternative to GAAP net income (loss), or an indication of our GAAP cash flows from operations, a measure of our liquidity, or an indication of funds available for our cash needs. In addition, our methodology for calculating Distributable Earnings may differ from the methodologies employed by other companies to calculate the same or similar supplemental performance measures, and, accordingly, our reported Distributable Earnings may not be comparable to the Distributable Earnings reported by other companies. Distributable Earnings (cont’d) 21

Other Definitions 22 All-in Yield at Origination ▪ Provided for illustrative purposes only. Calculations of all-in yield at origination are based on a number of assumptions (some or all of which may not occur) and are expressed as monthly equivalent yields that include net origination fees and exit fees and exclude future fundings and any potential or completed loan amendments or modifications. Calculations of all-in weighted average yield at origination exclude fixed rate loans. Cash Coupon ▪ Cash coupon does not include origination or exit fees. Future Fundings ▪ Fundings to borrowers of loan principal balances under existing commitments on our loan portfolio. Initial LTV ▪ The initial loan amount (plus any financing that is pari passu with or senior to such loan) divided by the as is appraised value (as determined in conformance with USPAP) as of the date the loan was originated set forth in the original appraisal. Net Income Attributable to Common Stockholders ▪ GAAP net income (loss) attributable to our common stockholders after deducting dividends attributable to our cumulative redeemable preferred stock. Original Term (Years) ▪ Original term (Years) is the initial maturity date at origination and does not include any extension options and has not been updated to reflect any subsequent extensions or modifications, if applicable. Recourse Leverage ▪ Borrowings outstanding on repurchase facilities, asset-specific financings, convertible senior notes and senior secured term loan facilities, less cash, divided by total stockholders’ equity. Senior Loans ▪ “Senior” means a loan primarily secured by a first priority lien on commercial real property and related personal property and also includes, when applicable, any companion subordinate loans. Stabilized LTV ▪ The fully funded loan amount (plus any financing that is pari passu with or senior to such loan), including all contractually provided for future fundings, divided by the as stabilized value (as determined in conformance with USPAP) set forth in the original appraisal. As stabilized value may be based on certain assumptions, such as future construction completion, projected re-tenanting, payment of tenant improvement or leasing commissions allowances or free or abated rent periods, or increased tenant occupancies. Total Leverage ▪ Borrowings outstanding on repurchase facilities, securitized debt obligations, asset-specific financings, convertible senior notes and senior secured term loan facilities, less cash, divided by total stockholders’ equity.
