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

Forward-Looking Statements
This press release contains "forward-looking statements" within
the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995
that are based on management's current expectations, assumptions
and beliefs. Forward-looking statements can often be identified by
words such as "anticipate", "estimate", "expect," "intend," "may",
"should" and similar expressions, and variations or negatives of
these words. These forward-looking statements include, but are not
limited to, statements regarding the Company's business and
industry in general and second quarter 2023 guidance, including net
income attributable to common stockholders, EAD and CAD and related
assumptions and estimates. They are not guarantees of future
results and forward-looking statements are subject to risks,
uncertainties and assumptions that could cause actual results to
differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking
statement, including those described in greater detail in our
filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, particularly
those described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K and Quarterly
Reports on Form 10-Q. Readers should not place undue reliance on
any forward-looking statements and are encouraged to review the
Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K and the Company's other
filings with the SEC for a more complete discussion of risks and
other factors that could affect any forward-looking statement. The
statements made herein speak only as of the date of this press
release and except as required by law, the Company does not
undertake any obligation to publicly update or revise any
forward-looking statements.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release contains non-GAAP financial measures. A
"non-GAAP financial measure" is defined as a numerical measure of a
company's financial performance that excludes or includes amounts
so as to be different than the most directly comparable measure
calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP in the statements
of income, balance sheets or statements of cash flows of the
Company. The non-GAAP financial measures used within this press
release are earnings available for distribution ("EAD") and cash
available for distribution ("CAD").
EAD is defined as net income (loss) attributable to our common
stockholders computed in accordance with GAAP, including realized
gains and losses not otherwise included in net income (loss),
excluding any unrealized gains or losses or other similar non-cash
items that are included in net income (loss) for the applicable
reporting period, regardless of whether such items are included in
other comprehensive income (loss), or in net income (loss) and
adding back amortization of stock-based compensation. Net income
(loss) attributable to common stockholders may also be adjusted for
the effects of certain GAAP adjustments and transactions that may
not be indicative of our current operations. In addition, EAD in
this press release includes the dilutive effect of non-controlling
interests. We use EAD to evaluate our performance and to assess our
long-term ability to pay distributions. We believe providing EAD as
a supplement to GAAP net income (loss) to our investors is helpful
to their assessment of our performance and our long-term ability to
pay distributions. We also use EAD as a component of the management
fee paid to our manager. EAD does not represent net income or cash
flows from operating activities and should not be considered as an
alternative to GAAP net income, an indication of our GAAP cash
flows from operating activities, a measure of our liquidity or an
indication of funds available for our cash needs. Our computation
of EAD may not be comparable to EAD reported by other REITs.
We calculate CAD by adjusting EAD by adding back amortization of
premiums, amortization and depreciation and amortization of
deferred financing costs and by removing accretion of discounts and
non-cash items, such as stock dividends. We use CAD to evaluate our
performance and our current ability to pay distributions. We also
believe that providing CAD as a supplement to GAAP net income
(loss) to our investors is helpful to their assessment of our
performance and our current ability to pay distributions. CAD does
not represent net income or cash flows from operating activities
and should not be considered as an alternative to GAAP net income,
an indication of our GAAP cash flows from operating activities, a
measure of our liquidity or an indication of funds available for
our cash needs. Our computation of CAD may not be comparable to CAD
reported by other REITs.
