Good morning, and thank you for joining the call. The broader economic backdrop during the first quarter of the year continued to provide an encouraging environment for investment activity within the real estate sector. While concern over private credit and broader geopolitical tensions have permeated the market, real estate credit has been relatively stable. As we survey market opportunities, we are closely monitoring capital flows in both real estate and credit, which will allow us to identify real-time trends that will drive the investment landscape. These insights are further augmented by the depth and breadth of TPG's global alternative investment platform. While real estate values have reset and our lending pipeline is robust, the recent steepening of the yield curve has put modest pressure on new acquisition activity. That being said, many of the key themes we've previously described continue to remain in place, including heavy refinance volume driven by broken capital structures and reset values, which have been further exacerbated by sustained elevated interest rates and supported by a consistent supply of back leverage for bank balance sheets. Building on the momentum of 2025, a year where TRTX closed $1.9 billion of new investments and achieved 25% year-over-year growth in earning assets, we are pleased to report a strong start to 2026. For the first quarter, our performance reflects our disciplined approach to risk management as we maintain stable risk ratings and the 100% performing loan portfolio at quarter end. We saw no negative credit migration in the quarter, with risk ratings unchanged at 3.0, and Cecil Reserve's essentially flat quarter over quarter. In April, TRTX received the full payment of 575 Fifth Avenue, which was our largest office exposure, and the material partial repayment on another office loan. And as a result, our office exposure is now less than 5% of our current balance sheet. As a natural consequence, the vintage of our balance sheet continues to compare favorably to our competitive set, with 67% of our balance sheet comprised of 2023 and newer loan originations. This is a direct result of the proactive risk management we've been consistent with over the past few years, combined with our strategic and measured approach to making new investments. As I look at our origination and repayment pace for this year, I expect we will finish 2026 with a substantial majority of the balance sheet comprised of 2023 and newer loan origination dates, which will provide shareholders with a new vintage portfolio and attractive credit profile. Of note, we've been able to achieve this balance sheet transformation while generating steady earnings and remaining under-levered relative to our peers. From an investment perspective, thus far this year, we've closed $324 million of loans and have another $535 million of executed term sheets, the majority of which are multifamily and industrial collapse, sectors we continue to target given their strong downside protection and solid long-term fund developmentals. Since the start of Q4 2025, we originated 12 loans with total commitments of $1.25 billion, with more than 90% of these from repeat borrowers underscoring the deep relationships we've cultivated within the real estate ecosystem, further amplified by the breadth of PPD's Integrated Real Estate Debt and Equity Investment Platform. Furthermore, within the $535 million of executed term sheets that we have this quarter, the majority of those new investments are collateralized by multifamily and industrial exposure and are sponsored by high-quality borrowers across the U.S. From a liability perspective, we continue to expand our lender relationships and optimize the durability of our capital structure. Building on the two series CLOs issued in 2025, which provide ample reinvestment capacity at an attractive cost of funds, we ended Q1-2026 with $173 million of liquidity, 78% non-mark-to-market financing, and a debt-to-equity ratio of 3.1 times. This positioning affords TRTX flexibility to pursue accretive investment opportunities while maintaining balance sheet discipline. Our company is in an advantageous position from a capital allocation standpoint. Given our strong liquidity position, we are able to both increase net earning assets while also repurchasing shares that we believe are undervalued. Since the year began through April 27th, we repurchased over 1 million shares of common stock for a total consideration of $8.7 million at an average price of $8.07 per share. While we were proud of the foundation late in 2025 and the strong start in Q1 2026, we remained focused on building on the success throughout the year. Our objective remains to continue to grow net assets and the earnings power of our company. With the insights and reach of TPG's real estate investment platform, a stable balance sheet, and an attractive opportunity set, we are confident in our ability to deliver continued strong performance. Despite the strength of our balance sheet and our growing earnings power, our stock trades at a valuation that we believe significantly undervalues our position relative to competitors and offers compelling value on an outright basis as well. Simply put, our balance sheet looks remarkably different from our peers with a newer vintage loan portfolio that provides steady earnings and credit stability. Relative to our peers, we continue to distinguish ourselves, particularly when you look at a number of important metrics, including loan vintage as a percentage of the portfolio, multifamily and industrial exposure, office exposure, unfunded loan commitments, REO as percentage of assets, and total debt-to-equity ratio. The offensive posture we've embraced, rooted in the strategic approach we laid out years ago, positions us well to sustain our momentum. Our performance in 2025 set a high bar, and we entered the remainder of 2026 with the capital, the team, and the drive to continue creating value for our shareholders. With that, I will turn the call over to Brandon to discuss our financial results in more detail.

Thank you, Doug, and good morning. For the first quarter of 2026, TRTX reported gap net income of $15.2 million. Distributable earnings for the quarter was $19.5 million, or $0.25 per common share, a 1.04 times coverage ratio of our first quarter common stock dividend of $0.24 per share. During the quarter, we repurchased 557,000 shares of common stock at a weighted average price of $8.06 per share. for total consideration of $4.5 million, which increased book value by $0.02 per share. As of March 31st, book value per share was $11.06. During the first quarter, we originated two loans with total commitments of $148.4 million at a weighted average credit spread of 2.73% and received loan repayments of $123.6 million, including two full loan repayments of $92.7 million where the underlying collateral was 40% multifamily, 35% hotel, and 25% industrial. Subsequent to quarter end, we originated a hotel loan with a total loan commitment and unpaid principal balance of $175.4 million at a weighted average credit spread of 3.0% and received two office loan repayments totaling $262.3 million, reducing our office loan exposure on a pro forma basis to less than 5%. Quarter over quarter, net assets remained flat at $4.1 billion. Year over year, our net assets have grown 26% or $868.0 million. At quarter end, our loan portfolio was 100% performing. During the quarter, we did not have any credit migration in our loan portfolio. Our weighted average risk rating for the loan portfolio is unchanged at 3.0. Our CISO reserve decreased slightly quarter over quarter to 179 basis points compared to 180 basis points at December 31, 2025. We ended the quarter with near-term liquidity of $172.8 million, consisting of $77 million of cash on hand available for investment, net of $15 million held to satisfy liquidity covenants, undrawn capacity under secured financing arrangements of $39.7 million, and CRE-CLO reinvestment proceeds of $41.2 million. Additionally, we held unencumbered loan investments with unpaid principal balance, of $106.8 million that are eligible to be pledged under our existing financing arrangements. The company's liability structure is 78% non-marked market across 10 financing sources and carries a weighted average cost of funds of 1.80%. Total leverage increased slightly quarter over quarter to 3.1 times from 3.02 times. At quarter end, we have $1.5 billion of financing capacity available to support loan investment activity, and we're in compliance with all of our financial covenants. With that, we welcome your questions. Operator? Thank you. We

You may press star 2 if you would like to remove your question from the queue. and for participants using speaker equipment, it may be necessary to pick up your handset before pressing the star keys. One moment while we pull for questions. Our first question is from John Nicodemus with BTIG. Please proceed.

Hello, and good morning, everyone. Thanks for taking the question. Doug and Brandon, you both provided some great color about sort of what you're seeing for originations looking ahead. Doug, I know you mentioned the $535 million of executed term sheets. With the portfolio kind of flat quarter over quarter, but obviously up year over year, we'd love to hear just some more thoughts on how we could see portfolio growth trending throughout 2026, particularly with those term sheets in mind, but also the large repayment that's already come

in in the second quarter. Thanks. Yeah, sure. So look, I think that from a quarter to quarter perspective, obviously we had a pretty substantial Q4 and then Q1, I think probably a touch of seasonality mixed in there resulted in perhaps a lighter number relative to Q4. But I really think that the sort of big story is the trend, right? I mean, the trend is growth. The trend remains that we have. Even having $535 million of term sheets executed at this point, that also doesn't reflect the pipeline that we have beyond that. So, you know, when we think about earnings growth and our ability to, you know, to really grow the company, our, you know, the stability of our balance sheet, the durability of our liability structure puts us in a great place. And when you combine that with the sourcing and resources of TPG's broader platform, you know, we feel really excited about our ability to kind of continue on our path.

Great. Really appreciate that, Doug. And then just one more from me. I believe on the last call, you mentioned that we should see some further progress on the REO portfolio this year. I know it's nothing huge, five assets, but I was just curious if there are any assets, like one or two in particular, of those five that we could expect to see come off sooner rather than later in 2026. Thanks.

Hi, this is Ryan, and I'll take that one. Thanks for the question. You know, as we demonstrated last year, we sold two office assets, and I think our plan this year kind of remains the same as Doug, you know, iterated last quarter, which is our plan is to sell some assets this year as well. The majority of our REO is focused in multifamily, which, you know, there is some seasonality to leasing and some other things that we're kind of, you know, nearing the corner on. So we'll look to kind of update everyone with some progress there. But, again, remains the plan to sell some REO this year. Thank you for the time.

That's all for me.

As a reminder, just star one on your telephone keypad if you would like to ask a question. Our next question comes from Chris Muller with Citizens Capital Markets.

please proceed. Hey, guys. Thanks for taking the question. And congrats on a really solid quarter here. So looking at the subsequent origination at $175 million, that's, I guess, above what your portfolio average is at about $80 million. But you guys do have other loans in that size range. So I guess the question is, are you guys starting to push into that larger loan space

or is this more of a one-off deal? Yeah. So look, I think from a loan size perspective, You know, we've kind of generally averaged somewhere in the sort of $85 to $90 million range historically. So I think that really, when I think about going forward, it'll just be a mix. You know, we're still looking at loans that are $30, $40, $50, $60 million. But if we see a really compelling, you know, high-quality asset or portfolio that, you know, is between $100 and $200 million, we're also happy to pursue that. So I'd say in short, it basically has been a mix in the past and will continue to, frankly, remain a mix of, again, that sort of $30 to $60 million range combined with some assets that, again, just sort of warrant larger exposure based on borrower quality, asset quality, and sort of how it fits into work.

Got it. And it looks like multifamily and industrial have been the bulk of the recent activity, I guess, aside from that 2Q origination. How is competition for these assets these days? And are there other asset types that you guys find attractive right now?

Sure. Yeah. So I think first on the competitive front, I think multifamily and industrial does have some competition. But that being said, I think we have a pretty tremendous sourcing edge here at TPG. And also, I think where we've probably been able to find some incremental value recently has been in the industrial space. I think that is a marginally less trafficked part of the market that I think people have a little bit less understanding of. We benefit from a fully integrated debt and equity platform that's both an owner of industrial and also a lender on industrial. So we feel like we have particular edge there. So I would say that multifamily, I'd say it's sort of been pretty steady in terms of the competitive dynamic there. I think industrial is a little bit spottier and that's where we found probably on the margin a little bit more value. Outside of multifamily and industrial, I think a lot of what we've done in the past, you know, we will continue to do so, which is, you know, right now with the funding of this recent hotel loan, that gets our pro forma hotel exposure to about 9%. You know, we've generally kind of tended to keep that, you know, sort of below 10 to 15% as a target. So we will look at other sectors. We're very selective. But I think at the core of, you know, where we're focusing our energies is, you know, finding assets that have substantial downside protection in particularly two asset classes that we do

feel like have strong long-term fundamentals. Got it. And if I could just squeeze a quick housekeeping one in, probably for Brandon, do you have the earnings contribution from the REO

assets, Andy? Thanks, Chris, for the question. We do have the incremental distributed earnings contribution for the REO assets. On a quarterly basis, it is positive. I would say that you can probably expect depending on seasonality to Ryan's point between two and three cents per quarter

as a good run rate. Well and congrats on a solid quarter again. Thank you. All right thanks a lot

really appreciate it. As a reminder to star one on your telephone keypad if you would like to ask a question we will pause for a brief moment to pull for any final questions. I just want to thank

everyone for joining the call this morning and we look forward to updating you on our further

progress. Thank you very much. Thank you. This will conclude today's conference. You may disconnect at this time, and thank you for your participation.
