NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(dollars in thousands, except per share data)
Note 1. Basis of Presentation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited. Certain information and disclosures required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, for complete financial statements have been condensed or omitted. We believe the disclosures made are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. However, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, or our 2024 Annual Report. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair statement of results for the interim periods have been included. All intercompany transactions and balances with or among our consolidated subsidiaries have been eliminated. Operating results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the allowance for credit losses, the valuation of real estate owned and the fair value of financial instruments.
Note 2. Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In November 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update, or ASU, No. 2024-03, Income Statement (Topic 220): Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures, or ASU No. 2024-03, which requires public entities to provide disaggregated disclosure of certain income statement expense captions within the footnotes to the financial statements. ASU No. 2024-03 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027. We are currently evaluating the impact ASU No. 2024-03 will have on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures.
Note 3. Loans Held for Investment, net
We originate first mortgage loans secured by middle market transitional commercial real estate, or CRE, which are generally to be held as long term investments. We fund our loan portfolio using cash on hand and advancements under our Secured Financing Facilities, as defined in Note 5. See Note 5 for further information regarding our secured financing agreements.
The table below provides overall statistics for our loan portfolio as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024:

Credit Quality Information and Allowance for Credit Losses
We evaluate the credit quality of each of our loans at least quarterly by assessing a variety of risk factors in relation to each loan and assigning a risk rating to each loan based on those factors. The higher the number, the greater the risk level. See our 2024 Annual Report for more information regarding our loan risk ratings.
As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the amortized cost of our loan portfolio within each internal risk rating by year of origination was as follows:

Allowance for credit losses
We measure our allowance for credit losses using the current expected credit loss, or CECL, model, which is based upon historical experience, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts incorporating forward-looking information that affect the collectability of the reported amount.
The allowance for credit losses is a valuation account that is deducted from the related loans’ amortized cost basis in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. Our loans typically include commitments to fund incremental proceeds to borrowers over the life of the loan; these future funding commitments are also subject to the CECL model. The allowance for credit losses related to unfunded loan commitments is included in accounts payable, accrued liabilities and other liabilities in our condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Given the lack of historical loss data related to our loan portfolio, we estimate our expected losses using an analytical model that considers the likelihood of default and loss given default for each individual loan. This analytical model incorporates data from a third party database with historical loan loss information for commercial mortgage-backed securities, or CMBS, and CRE loans since 1998. We estimate the allowance for credit losses for our portfolio, including unfunded loan commitments, at the individual loan level. Significant inputs to the model include certain loan specific data, such as loan to value, or LTV, property type, geographic location, occupancy, vintage year, remaining loan term, net operating income, expected timing and amounts of future loan fundings and macroeconomic forecast assumptions, including the performance of CRE assets, unemployment rates, interest rates and other factors. We utilize the model to estimate credit losses over a reasonable and supportable economic forecast period of 12 months, followed by a straight-line reversion period of 12 months to average historical losses. Average historical losses are established using a population of third party historical loss data that approximates our portfolio as of the measurement date. We evaluate the estimated allowance for each of our loans individually and we consider our internal loan risk rating as the primary credit quality indicator underlying our assessment.
We have elected to exclude accrued interest receivable from amortized cost and not to measure an allowance for credit losses on accrued interest receivable. Accrued interest receivables are generally written off when payments are 120 days past due. Such amounts are reversed against interest income and no further interest will be recorded until it is collected.
If a loan is determined to be collateral dependent (because the repayment of the loan is expected to be provided substantially through the operation or sale of the underlying collateral property) and the borrower is experiencing financial difficulties, but foreclosure is not probable, we may elect to apply a practical expedient to determine the loan's allowance for credit losses by comparing the collateral's fair value to the amortized cost basis of the loan. For collateral-dependent loans for which foreclosure is probable, the related allowance for credit losses is determined using the fair value of the collateral compared to the loan's amortized cost.
See Note 2 to our Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part IV, Item 15 of our 2024 Annual Report for further information regarding our measurement of our allowance for credit losses.

The increase in the allowance for credit losses during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 was primarily attributable to unfavorable CRE pricing forecasts used in our CECL model and extensions for certain of our loans, partially offset by loan repayments.
We may enter into loan modifications that include, among other changes, extensions of maturity dates, repurposing or required replenishment of reserves, increases or decreases in loan commitments and required pay downs of principal amounts outstanding. Loan modifications are evaluated to determine whether a modification results in a new loan or a continuation of an existing loan under ASC 310.
In August 2024, we amended the agreement governing our loan secured by an office property in Dallas, TX. As part of this amendment, the loan commitment was reduced by $3,189 , the borrower was required to contribute $2,900 to cash reserves and the maturity date was extended by two years to August 25, 2026. As of June 30, 2025, this loan had an amortized cost of $43,511 and a risk rating of 4.
In August 2024, we amended the agreement governing our loan secured by an office property in Plano, TX. As part of this amendment, the coupon rate was reduced from the Secured Overnight Financing Rate, or SOFR, + 4.75 % to SOFR + 3.75 % and the maturity date was extended by two years to July 1, 2026. As of June 30, 2025, this loan had an amortized cost of $26,636 and a risk rating of 4.
In November 2024, we amended the agreement governing our loan secured by an office property in Carlsbad, CA. As part of this amendment, the borrower was required to contribute $1,100 to cash reserves and the maturity date was extended by two years to October 27, 2026. As of June 30, 2025, this loan had an amortized cost of $24,414 and a risk rating of 4.

In April 2025, we amended the agreement governing our loan secured by an office property in Bellevue, WA. As part of this amendment, the borrower was required to contribute $1,625 to cash reserves, the coupon rate was reduced from SOFR + 3.85 % to SOFR + 2.85 % and the maturity date was extended by three years to April 7, 2028. As of June 30, 2025, this loan had an amortized cost of $19,999 and a risk rating of 4.
In May 2025, we amended the agreement governing our loan secured by an office property in Downers Grove, IL. As part of this amendment, the borrower repaid $3,000 of the outstanding principal balance and the maturity date was extended by one year to May 22, 2026. As of June 30, 2025, this loan had an amortized cost of $26,620 and a risk rating of 4.
We did not have any outstanding past due loans or nonaccrual loans as of June 30, 2025 or December 31, 2024. As of June 30, 2025 and July 24, 2025, all of our borrowers had paid their debt service obligations owed and due to us. See our 2024 Annual Report for more information regarding our nonaccrual policy.
Note 4. Real Estate Owned
Real estate owned is property acquired in full or partial settlement of loan obligations, generally through foreclosure or by deed in lieu of foreclosure. Upon acquisition, we allocate the fair value of the real estate owned in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations. Subsequent to acquisition, costs incurred related to improvements to the property are capitalized and depreciated over their estimated useful lives and costs related to the operation of the property are expensed as incurred.
In June 2023, we assumed legal title to an office property located in Yardley, PA through a deed in lieu of foreclosure. The table below presents the assets and liabilities of real estate owned in our condensed consolidated balance sheets:

Total assets | $ | $ | ||||||||||||
| Accounts payable, accrued liabilities and other liabilities | $ | $ | ||||||||||||
Total liabilities | $ | $ | ||||||||||||
Revenue from real estate owned represents rental income from operating leases with tenants and is recognized on a straight line basis over the lease term. We increased revenue from real estate owned to record revenue on a straight line basis by $15 and $31 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively, and $107 and $385 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively. Expenses from real estate owned represents costs to operate the property and depreciation and amortization expense.
We regularly evaluate real estate owned for indicators of impairment. Impairment indicators may include declining tenant occupancy, lack of progress leasing vacant space, tenant bankruptcies, low long term prospects for improvement in property performance, weak or declining tenant profitability, cash flow or liquidity, our decision to dispose of an asset before the end of its estimated useful life and legislative, market or industry changes that could permanently reduce the value of a property. If there is an indication that the carrying value of an asset is not recoverable, we estimate the projected undiscounted cash flows to determine if an impairment loss should be recognized. The future net undiscounted cash flows are subjective and are based in part on assumptions regarding hold periods, market rents and terminal capitalization rates. We determine the amount of any impairment loss by comparing the carrying value to estimated fair value. We estimate fair value through an evaluation of recent financial performance and projected discounted cash flows using standard industry valuation methods.

(1)The weighted average coupon rate is determined using SOFR plus a spread ranging from 1.83 % to 2.95 %, as applicable, for the respective borrowings under our Secured Financing Facilities as of the applicable date.
(2)The weighted average remaining maturity of our Master Repurchase Facilities is determined using the earlier of the underlying loan investment maturity date and the respective repurchase agreement maturity date. The weighted average remaining maturity of the BMO Facility is determined using the underlying loan investment maturity date.
As of June 30, 2025, we were in compliance with the covenants and other terms of the agreements that govern our Secured Financing Facilities.
As of June 30, 2025, our outstanding borrowings under our Secured Financing Facilities had the following remaining maturities:

Based upon the performance and payment history of our commercial mortgage loans, along with our ability to obtain financing under repurchase agreements and success in extending certain of our existing Master Repurchase Agreements, we believe it is probable that we will extend our Master Repurchase Facilities prior to their maturities.
Note 6. Fair Value Measurements
We determine the estimated fair value of financial assets and liabilities using the three-tier value hierarchy established by GAAP. As of June 30, 2025, the carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, accrued interest receivable and accounts payable approximate their fair values due to the short term nature of these financial instruments.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in our 2024 Annual Report.
OVERVIEW (dollars in thousands, except share data)
We are a Maryland REIT. Our business strategy is focused on originating and investing in floating rate first mortgage loans that range from $15,000 to $75,000, secured by middle market transitional CRE properties that have values up to $100,000. We define transitional CRE as commercial properties subject to redevelopment or repositioning activities that are expected to increase the value of the properties.
Tremont is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, as an investment adviser under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended. We believe that Tremont provides us with significant experience and expertise in investing in middle market transitional CRE.
We operate our business in a manner that is consistent with our qualification for taxation as a REIT under the IRC. As such, we generally are not subject to U.S. federal income tax, provided that we meet certain distribution and other requirements. We also operate our business in a manner that permits us to maintain our exemption from registration under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, or the 1940 Act.
Factors Affecting Operating Results
Our results of operations are impacted by a number of factors and primarily depend on the interest income from our investments and the financing and other costs associated with our business. Our operating results are also impacted by general CRE market conditions and unanticipated defaults by our borrowers. For further information regarding the risks associated with our loan portfolio, see Note 3 to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 and elsewhere in this Management Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and Part I, Item 1A, "Risk Factors" of our 2024 Annual Report.
Credit Risk. We are subject to the credit risk of our borrowers in connection with our investments. We seek to mitigate this risk by utilizing a comprehensive underwriting, diligence and investment selection process and by ongoing monitoring of our investments. Nevertheless, unanticipated credit losses could occur that may adversely impact our operating results.
Changes in Fair Value of our Assets. We generally intend to hold our investments for their contractual terms, unless repaid earlier by the borrowers. We evaluate the credit quality of each of our loans at least quarterly. If a loan is determined to be collateral dependent (because the repayment of the loan is expected to be provided substantially through the operation or sale of the underlying collateral property) and the borrower is experiencing financial difficulties, but foreclosure is not probable, we may record an allowance for credit losses by comparing the collateral's fair value to the amortized cost basis of the loan. For collateral-dependent loans for which foreclosure is probable, the related allowance for credit losses is determined using the fair value of the collateral compared to the loan's amortized cost.
Availability of Leverage and Equity. We use leverage to make additional investments that may increase our returns. We may not be able to obtain the expected amount of leverage we desire or its cost may exceed our expectation and, consequently, the returns generated from our investments may be reduced. Our ability to further grow our loan portfolio over time will depend, to a significant degree, upon our ability to obtain additional capital. However, our access to additional capital depends on many factors including the price at which our common shares trade relative to their book value and market lending conditions. See "—Market Conditions" below.
Market Conditions. U.S. trade and fiscal policy, coupled with ongoing geopolitical tensions, has caused uncertainty in financial markets. As a result, we believe many CRE investors continue to remain on the sidelines, waiting until they have greater clarity on the outcomes of negotiations with U.S. trade partners, new tariff announcements, domestic fiscal policy initiatives and the path of interest rates to make buy and sell decisions. However, the Federal Open Market Committee, or FOMC, has indicated that the U.S. economy is on solid footing, allowing it to be patient and wait to measure the impact of tariff driven price increases before determining the future path of interest rates.
15
Despite the current macroeconomic uncertainty, CRE debt markets continue to function well. The relative risk versus reward in CRE debt investments has led to healthy loan demand from various types of lenders, including banks, securitized lenders, life insurance companies, private debt funds and mortgage REITs. With fewer sale transactions to finance and strong debt capital market liquidity, borrowers with well-performing collateral properties are benefiting from increased competition amongst lenders, which has driven credit spreads and whole loan rates downward.
Changes in Interest Rates. With respect to our business operations, increases in interest rates, in general, may cause: (a) the coupon rates on our variable rate investments to reset, perhaps on a delayed basis, to higher rates; (b) it to become more difficult and costly for our borrowers, which may negatively impact their ability to repay our investments; and (c) the interest expense associated with our variable rate borrowings to increase.
Conversely, decreases in interest rates, in general, may cause: (a) the coupon rates on our variable rate investments to reset, perhaps on a delayed basis, to lower rates; (b) it to become easier and more affordable for our borrowers to refinance, and as a result, repay our loans, but may negatively impact our future returns if any such repayment proceeds were to be reinvested in lower yielding investments; and (c) the interest expense associated with our variable rate borrowings to decrease.
The interest income on our loans and interest expense on our borrowings float with benchmark rates, such as SOFR. Because we generally intend to leverage up to 80% of the amount of our investments, as benchmark rates increase above the floors of our loans, our income from investments, net of interest and related expenses, will increase. Decreases in benchmark rates are mitigated by interest rate floor provisions in all but one of our loan agreements with borrowers, ranging from 0.25% to 5.20%; therefore, changes to income from investments, net, may not move proportionately with the increase or decrease in benchmark rates. As of June 30, 2025, SOFR was 4.32%, and as a result, one of our loan investments had an active interest rate floor.
Size of Portfolio. The size of our loan portfolio, as measured both by the aggregate principal balance and the number of our CRE loans and our other investments, is also an important factor in determining our operating results. Generally, if the size of our loan portfolio grows, the amount of interest income we receive would increase and we may achieve certain economies of scale and diversify risk within our loan portfolio. A larger portfolio, however, may result in increased expenses; for example, we may incur additional interest expense or other costs to finance our investments. Also, if the aggregate principal balance of our loan portfolio grows but the number of our loans or the number of our borrowers does not grow, we could face increased risk by reason of the concentration of our investments.
Prepayment Risk. We are subject to risk that our loan investments will be repaid at an earlier date than anticipated, which may reduce the returns realized on those loans as less interest income may be received over time. Additionally, we may not be able to reinvest the principal repaid timely and/or at a similar or higher yield of the original loan investment. We seek to limit this risk by structuring our loan agreements with fees required to be paid to us upon prepayment of a loan within a specified period of time before the loan’s maturity; however, unanticipated prepayments could negatively impact our operating results.

All of the loans in our portfolio are structured with risk mitigation mechanisms, such as cash flow sweeps or interest reserves, to help protect us against investment losses. In addition, we actively engage with our borrowers regarding their execution of the business plans for the underlying collateral, among other things.
As of June 30, 2025 and July 24, 2025, all of our borrowers had paid their debt service obligations owed and due to us.
We did not have any outstanding past due loans or nonaccrual loans as of June 30, 2025. However, our borrowers' businesses, operations and liquidity may be materially adversely impacted by current inflationary pressures, interest rate fluctuations, supply chain issues or a prolonged economic slowdown or recession could amplify those negative impacts. As a result, they may become unable to pay their debt service obligations owed and due to us, which may result in an increased allowance for credit losses and/or recognition of income on a nonaccrual basis. For further information regarding our loan portfolio and risk rating policy, see Note 3 to our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1, "—Factors Affecting our Operating Results" and "Warning Concerning Forward-Looking Statements" elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the risk factors identified in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors”, of our 2024 Annual Report.

Interest and related income. The increase in interest and related income was primarily due to higher deferred fee amortization, partially offset by a decrease in the weighted average coupon rates during the three months ended June 30, 2025. The weighted average coupon rate was 8.03% as of June 30, 2025 compared to 8.07% as of March 31, 2025.
Interest and related expenses. The increase in interest and related expenses was primarily the result of a higher average principal balance outstanding under our Secured Financing Facilities and higher deferred fee amortization, partially offset by a decrease in the weighted average coupon rates during the three months ended June 30, 2025. The weighted average principal balance was approximately $433,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2025 compared to approximately $432,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The weighted average coupon rate was 6.51% as of June 30, 2025 compared to 6.52% as of March 31, 2025.
Revenue from real estate owned. Revenue from real estate owned represents revenue from the operations of an office property located in Yardley, PA that was transferred to real estate owned through a deed in lieu of foreclosure in June 2023. The decrease in revenue from real estate owned was primarily due to lower operating expense reimbursements during the three months ended June 30, 2025 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025.
Incentive fees. We recognize management incentive fees payable to Tremont in accordance with our management agreement. The increase in management incentive fees was due to the incentive fee for the 12 month period ended June 30, 2025 exceeding the fee paid for the previous three calendar quarters by a higher margin, as compared to the fee for the 12 month period ended March 31, 2025.
21
General and administrative expenses. The increase in general and administrative expenses was primarily due to an increase in share based compensation resulting from shares awarded to our trustees during the three months ended June 30, 2025.
Reimbursement of shared services expenses. Reimbursement of shared services expenses represents reimbursement of the costs for the services that Tremont arranges on our behalf from RMR.
Provision for (reversal of) credit losses. The provision for (reversal of) credit losses represents the change in the allowance for credit losses on our loan portfolio and unfunded commitments. The increase in the allowance for credit losses during the three months ended June 30, 2025 was primarily attributable to unfavorable CRE pricing forecasts used in our CECL model and extensions for certain of our loans, partially offset by loan repayments.
Expenses from real estate owned. Expenses from real estate owned represent expenses from the operations of an office property located in Yardley, PA that was transferred to real estate owned through a deed in lieu of foreclosure in June 2023. The decrease in expenses from real estate owned was primarily due to lower utility expenses during the three months ended June 30, 2025 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025.
Income tax benefit (expense). Income tax expense represents income taxes paid or payable by us in certain jurisdictions where we are subject to state income taxes.
Net income. The decrease in net income was due to the changes noted above.

Interest and related income. The decrease in interest and related income was primarily the result of lower weighted average coupon rates under our loan investment portfolio, partially offset by higher outstanding principal balances during the six months ended June 30, 2025. The weighted average coupon rate was 8.03% as of June 30, 2025 compared to 9.11% as of June 30, 2024. The weighted average principal balance was approximately $642,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to approximately $607,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2024.
Purchase discount accretion. The decrease in purchase discount accretion was due to the purchase discount recorded as part of our merger with Tremont Mortgage Trust, or the Merger, becoming fully accreted during 2024.
Interest and related expenses. The decrease in interest and related expenses was primarily the result of lower weighted average coupon rates under our Secured Financing Facilities, partially offset by higher outstanding principal balances during the six months ended June 30, 2025. The weighted average coupon rate was 6.51% as of June 30, 2025 compared to 7.48% as of June 30, 2024. The weighted average principal balance was approximately $432,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to approximately $431,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2024.
Revenue from real estate owned. Revenue from real estate owned represents revenue from the operations of an office property located in Yardley, PA that was transferred to real estate owned through a deed in lieu of foreclosure in June 2023. The increase in revenue from real estate owned was primarily due to higher operating expense reimbursements during the six months ended June 30, 2025 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2024.
23
Incentive fees. We recognize management incentive fees payable to Tremont in accordance with our management agreement. The decrease in management incentive fees was due to lower “core earnings”, as defined in our management agreement, during the six months ended June 30, 2025 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2024.
General and administrative expenses. The increase in general and administrative expenses was primarily due to an increase in share based compensation resulting from shares awarded to our trustees during the six months ended June 30, 2025.
Reimbursement of shared services expenses. Reimbursement of shared services expenses represents reimbursement of the costs for the services that Tremont arranges on our behalf from RMR. The decrease in reimbursement of shared services expenses was primarily the result of lower usage of shared services from RMR during the six months ended June 30, 2025 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2024.
Provision for credit losses. The provision for credit losses represents the change in the allowance for credit losses on our loan portfolio and unfunded commitments. The decrease in the provision for credit losses during the six months ended June 30, 2025 was primarily attributable to improved performance at certain of the collateral properties underlying our loans, partially offset by higher total loan commitments during the six months ended June 30, 2025 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2024.
Expenses from real estate owned. Expenses from real estate owned represent expenses from the operations of an office property located in Yardley, PA that was transferred to real estate owned through a deed in lieu of foreclosure in June 2023. The decrease in expenses from real estate owned was primarily due to decreases in maintenance expenses, partially offset by higher utility expenses during the six months ended June 30, 2025 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2024.
Income tax expense. Income tax expense represents income taxes paid or payable by us in certain jurisdictions where we are subject to state income taxes.
Net income. The decrease in net income was due to the changes noted above.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We present Adjusted Book Value per common share, Distributable Earnings and Distributable Earnings per common share, which are considered “non-GAAP financial measures” within the meaning of the applicable SEC rules. These non-GAAP financial measures do not represent book value per common share, net income, net income per common share or cash generated from operating activities and should not be considered as alternatives to book value per common share, net income or net income per common share determined in accordance with GAAP or as an indication of our cash flows from operations determined in accordance with GAAP, a measure of our liquidity or operating performance or an indication of funds available for our cash needs. In addition, our methodologies for calculating these non-GAAP financial measures may differ from the methodologies employed by other companies to calculate the same or similar supplemental performance measures; therefore, our reported Adjusted Book Value per common share, Distributable Earnings and Distributable Earnings per common share may not be comparable to adjusted book value per common share, distributable earnings and distributable earnings per common share as reported by other companies.
Adjusted Book Value per Common Share
We believe that Adjusted Book Value per common share is a meaningful measure of our capital adequacy because it excludes the impact of certain non-cash estimates or adjustments, including the unaccreted purchase discount resulting from the excess of the fair value of the loans Tremont Mortgage Trust then held for investment and that we acquired as a result of the Merger, over the consideration we paid in the Merger and our allowance for credit losses for our loan portfolio and unfunded loan commitments. Adjusted Book Value per common share does not represent book value per common share or alternative measures determined in accordance with GAAP. Our methodology for calculating Adjusted Book Value per common share may differ from the methodologies employed by other companies to calculate the same or similar supplemental capital adequacy measures; therefore, our Adjusted Book Value per common share may not be comparable to the adjusted book value per common share reported by other companies.
24
The table below calculates our book value per common share and Adjusted Book Value per common share, which is a non-GAAP financial measure:
| June 30, 2025 | December 31, 2024 | ||||||||||
| Shareholders' equity | $ | 267,020 | $ | 269,278 | |||||||
| Total outstanding common shares | 14,944 | 14,903 | |||||||||
| Book value per common share | 17.87 | 18.07 | |||||||||
Allowance for credit losses per common share (1) | 0.64 | 0.60 | |||||||||
| Adjusted Book Value per common share | $ | 18.51 | $ | 18.67 | |||||||
(1)Excludes the impact of our allowance for credit losses. As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, our allowance for credit losses for our loan portfolio and unfunded loan commitments was $9,667 and $8,908, respectively.
Distributable Earnings
In order to maintain our qualification for taxation as a REIT, we are generally required to distribute substantially all of our taxable income, subject to certain adjustments, to our shareholders. We believe that one of the factors that investors consider important in deciding whether to buy or sell securities of a REIT is its distribution rate. Over time, Distributable Earnings and Distributable Earnings per common share may be useful indicators of distributions to our shareholders and are measures that are considered by our Board of Trustees when determining the amount of distributions. We believe that Distributable Earnings and Distributable Earnings per common share provide meaningful information to consider in addition to net income, net income per common share and cash flows from operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP. These measures help us to evaluate our performance excluding the effects of certain transactions and GAAP adjustments that we believe are not necessarily indicative of our current loan portfolio and operations. In addition, Distributable Earnings, excluding incentive fees, is used in determining the amount of base management and management incentive fees payable by us to Tremont under our management agreement.
We calculate Distributable Earnings and Distributable Earnings per common share as net income and net income per common share, respectively, computed in accordance with GAAP, including realized losses not otherwise included in net income determined in accordance with GAAP, and excluding: (a) depreciation and amortization of real estate owned and related intangible assets, if any; (b) non-cash equity compensation expense; (c) unrealized gains, losses and other similar non-cash items that are included in net income for the period of the calculation (regardless of whether such items are included in or deducted from net income or in other comprehensive income under GAAP), if any; and (d) one-time events pursuant to changes in GAAP and certain non-cash items, if any. Distributable Earnings are reduced for realized losses on loan investments when amounts are deemed uncollectable. This is generally at the time a loan is repaid, or in the case of foreclosure, when the underlying asset is sold, but may also be when, 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 loan.
25
The table below demonstrates how we calculate Distributable Earnings and Distributable Earnings per common share, which are non-GAAP financial measures, and provides a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to net income:

| Distributable Earnings per common share - basic and diluted | $ | 0.31 | $ | 0.34 | $ | 0.65 | $ | 0.76 | ||||||||||||||||||
(1)Exit fees collected on loans acquired in the Merger represent fees collected upon repayment of loans for which no income has previously been recognized in Distributable Earnings. In accordance with GAAP, exit fees payable with respect to loans acquired in the Merger were accreted as a component of the purchase discount and were excluded from Distributable Earnings as a non-cash item. Accordingly, these exit fees have been recognized in Distributable Earnings upon collection.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES (dollars in thousands, except per share data)
Liquidity is a measure of our ability to meet potential cash requirements, including ongoing commitments to fund our lending commitments, repay or meet margin calls resulting from our borrowings, if any, fund and maintain our assets and operations, make distributions to our shareholders and fund other business operating requirements. Our sources of cash flows include cash on hand, payments of principal, interest and fees we receive on our investments, other cash we may generate from our business and operations, any unused borrowing capacity, including under our Secured Financing Facilities or other repurchase agreements or financing arrangements we may obtain, which may also include bank loans or public or private issuances of debt or equity securities, and proceeds from any sale of real estate owned. We believe that these sources of funds will be sufficient to meet our operating and capital expenses, pay our debt service obligations owed and make any distributions to our shareholders for the next 12 months and for the foreseeable future. For further information regarding the risks associated with our loan portfolio, see Note 3 to our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 and elsewhere in this Management Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and Part I, Item 1A, "Risk Factors" of our 2024 Annual Report.
Pursuant to the terms of our Citibank Master Repurchase Facility, our UBS Master Repurchase Facility and our Wells Fargo Master Repurchase Facility, we may sell to, and later repurchase from, Citibank, UBS and Wells Fargo, the purchased assets related to the applicable facility. The initial purchase price paid by Citibank of each purchased asset is up to 75% of the lesser of the market value of the purchased asset or the unpaid principal balance of such purchased asset, subject to Citibank's approval. The initial purchase price paid by UBS of each purchased asset is up to 80% of the lesser of the market value of the purchased asset or the unpaid principal balance of such purchased asset, subject to UBS's approval. The initial purchase price paid by Wells Fargo for each purchased asset is up to 75% or 80%, depending on the property type of the purchased asset’s real estate collateral, of the lesser of the market value of the purchased asset or the unpaid principal balance of such purchased asset, and subject to Wells Fargo’s approval. Upon the repurchase of a purchased asset, we are required to pay Citibank, UBS or Wells Fargo, as applicable, the outstanding purchase price of the purchased asset, accrued interest and all accrued and unpaid expenses of Citibank, UBS or Wells Fargo, as applicable, relating to such purchased asset.
The interest rates related to our Citibank, UBS and Wells Fargo purchased assets are calculated at SOFR plus a premium within a fixed range, determined by the debt yield and property type of the purchased asset’s real estate collateral. Citibank has the discretion to make advancements at margins higher than 75%, and UBS and Wells Fargo each has the discretion to make advancements at margins higher than 80%.
26
Loans issued under the BMO Facility are coterminous with the corresponding pledged mortgage loan investments, are not subject to margin calls and allow for up to an 80% advance rate, subject to certain loan to cost and LTV limits. Interest on advancements under the BMO Facility are calculated at SOFR plus a premium. Loans issued under the BMO Facility are secured by a security interest and collateral assignment of the underlying loans to our borrowers which are secured by real property underlying such loans. We are required to pay an upfront fee equal to a percentage of the aggregate amount of the facility loan, such percentage to be determined at the time of approval of the separate facility loan agreements with BMO, or the BMO Facility Loan Agreements.
For further information regarding our Secured Financing Facilities, see Note 5 to our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1, of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
The table below is a summary of our sources and uses of cash flows for the periods presented:
| Six Months Ended June 30, | ||||||||||||||
| 2025 | 2024 | |||||||||||||
| Cash and cash equivalents at beginning of period | $ | 70,750 | $ | 87,855 | ||||||||||

| Financing activities | (13,041) | (47,636) | ||||||||||||
| Cash and cash equivalents at end of period | $ | 45,951 | $ | 69,603 | ||||||||||
The decrease in cash provided by operating activities for the 2025 period compared to the 2024 period was primarily due to lower net interest income resulting from lower weighted average interest rates under our loan investment portfolio. The change from cash provided by to cash used in investing activities was primarily due to increased loan originations in the 2025 period. The decrease in cash used in financing activities was primarily due to increased proceeds from our Secured Financing Facilities in the 2025 period.
Distributions
During the six months ended June 30, 2025, we declared and paid regular quarterly distributions to our common shareholders totaling $10,433, or $0.70 per common share, using cash on hand.
On July 10, 2025, we declared a reduced regular quarterly distribution of $0.28 per common share, or $4,184, to shareholders of record on July 21, 2025. The reduced quarterly distribution reflects a sustainable rate with expectations that loan repayment proceeds will be redeployed at lower net interest margins and a declining SOFR index rate curve. We expect to pay this distribution to our common shareholders on or about August 14, 2025 using cash on hand.
For further information regarding distributions, see Note 7 to our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

(2)The allocation of outstanding advancements under our Secured Financing Facilities is based on the earlier of the current maturity date of each loan investment with respect to which the individual borrowing relates or the maturity date of the respective Secured Financing Facilities.
(3)Projected interest payments are attributable only to our debt service obligations at existing rates as of June 30, 2025 and are not intended to estimate future interest costs which may result from debt prepayments, additional borrowings, new debt issuances or changes in interest rates.
(4)Lease related costs include capital expenditures used to improve tenants' spaces pursuant to lease agreements or leasing related costs, such as brokerage commissions, related to real estate owned.
Debt Covenants
Our principal debt obligations as of June 30, 2025 were the outstanding balances under our Secured Financing Facilities. The agreements governing our Master Repurchase Facilities, or our Master Repurchase Agreements, provide for acceleration of the date of repurchase of any then purchased assets and the liquidation of the purchased assets by UBS, Citibank or Wells Fargo, as applicable, upon the occurrence and continuation of certain events of default, including a change of control of us, which includes Tremont ceasing to act as our sole manager or to be a wholly owned subsidiary of RMR. Our Master Repurchase Agreements also provide that upon the repurchase of any then purchased asset, we are required to pay UBS, Citibank or Wells Fargo the outstanding purchase price of such purchased asset and accrued interest and any and all accrued and unpaid expenses of UBS, Citibank or Wells Fargo, as applicable, relating to such purchased asset.
In connection with our Master Repurchase Agreements, we entered into our guarantees, or the Master Repurchase Guarantees, which require us to guarantee 25% of the aggregate repurchase price and 100% of losses in the event of certain bad acts, as well as any costs and expenses of UBS, Citibank and Wells Fargo, as applicable, related to our Master Repurchase Agreements. The Master Repurchase Guarantees contain financial covenants, which require us to maintain a minimum tangible net worth, a minimum liquidity and a minimum interest coverage ratio and to satisfy a total indebtedness to stockholders' equity ratio.
In connection with our facility loan program agreement and the security agreement with BMO, or the BMO Loan Program Agreement, we have agreed to guarantee certain of the obligations under the BMO Loan Program Agreement and the BMO Facility Loan Agreements pursuant to a limited guaranty from us to and for the benefit of the administrative agent for itself and such other lenders, or the BMO Guaranty. Specifically, the BMO Guaranty requires us to guarantee 25% of the then current outstanding principal balance of the facility loans and 100% of losses or the entire indebtedness in the event of certain bad acts as well as any costs and expenses of the administrative agent or lenders related to the BMO Loan Program Agreement. In addition, the BMO Guaranty contains financial covenants that require us to maintain a minimum tangible net worth and a minimum liquidity and to satisfy a total indebtedness to stockholders’ equity ratio. Our BMO Loan Program Agreement provides for acceleration of all payment obligations due under the BMO Facility Loan Agreements upon the occurrence and continuation of certain events of default, including a change of control of us, which includes Tremont ceasing to act as our sole manager or to be a wholly owned subsidiary of RMR.
As of June 30, 2025, we had a $345,010 aggregate outstanding principal balance under our Master Repurchase Facilities. Our Master Repurchase Agreements are structured with risk mitigation mechanisms, including a cash flow sweep, which would allow UBS, Citibank and Wells Fargo, as applicable, to control interest payments from our borrowers under our loans that are financed under our respective Master Repurchase Facilities, and the ability to accelerate dates of repurchase and institute margin calls, which may require us to pay down balances associated with one or more of our loans that are financed under our Master Repurchase Facilities.
28
As of June 30, 2025, we had a $72,205 aggregate outstanding principal balance under the BMO Facility.
As of June 30, 2025, we were in compliance with all covenants and other terms under our Secured Financing Facilities.
Related Person Transactions
We have relationships and historical and continuing transactions with Tremont, RMR, RMR Inc. and others related to them. For further information about these and other such relationships and related person transactions, see Notes 8 and 9 to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, our 2024 Annual Report, our definitive Proxy Statement for our 2025 Annual Meeting of Shareholders and our other filings with the SEC. In addition, see the section captioned “Risk Factors” of our 2024 Annual Report for a description of risks that may arise as a result of these and other related person transactions and relationships. We may engage in additional transactions with related persons, including businesses to which RMR, Tremont or their respective subsidiaries provide management services.
Critical Accounting Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect reporting amounts. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates in our condensed consolidated financial statements include revenue recognition, loans held for investment, allowance for credit losses and real estate owned.
A discussion of our critical accounting estimates is included in our 2024 Annual Report. There have been no significant changes in our critical accounting estimates since the year ended December 31, 2024.
