1. ORGANIZATION
References herein to “Blackstone Mortgage Trust,” “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our” refer to Blackstone Mortgage Trust, Inc., a Maryland corporation, and its subsidiaries unless the context specifically requires otherwise.
Blackstone Mortgage Trust is a real estate finance company that originates senior loans collateralized by commercial real estate in North America, Europe, and Australia. Our portfolio is composed primarily of loans secured by high-quality, institutional assets in major markets, sponsored by experienced, well-capitalized real estate investment owners and operators. These senior loans are capitalized by accessing a variety of financing options, including borrowing under our credit facilities, issuing CLOs or single-asset securitizations, and corporate financing, depending on our view of the most prudent financing option available for each of our investments. We are not in the business of buying or trading securities, and the only securities we own are the retained interests from our securitization financing transactions, which we have not financed. We are externally managed by BXMT Advisors L.L.C., or our Manager, a subsidiary of Blackstone Inc., or Blackstone, and are a real estate investment trust, or REIT, traded on the New York Stock Exchange, or NYSE, under the symbol “BXMT.” Our principal executive offices are located at 345 Park Avenue, 24th Floor, New York, New York 10154.
We conduct our operations as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes. We generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income taxes on our taxable income to the extent that we annually distribute all of our net taxable income to stockholders and maintain our qualification as a REIT. We also operate our business in a manner that permits us to maintain an exclusion from registration under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. We are organized as a holding company and conduct our business primarily through our various subsidiaries.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, or GAAP, for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. The consolidated financial statements, including the notes thereto, are unaudited and exclude some of the disclosures required in audited financial statements. We believe we have made all necessary adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring items, so that the consolidated financial statements are presented fairly and that estimates made in preparing our consolidated financial statements are reasonable and prudent. The operating results presented for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any other interim period or for the entire year. The accompanying unaudited consolidated interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC.

Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include, on a consolidated basis, our accounts, the accounts of our wholly-owned subsidiaries, majority-owned subsidiaries, and variable interest entities, or VIEs, of which we are the primary beneficiary. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Certain reclassifications have been made in the presentation of the prior period statement of cash flows related to payment-in-kind interest and principal fundings of loans receivable and in new financings by spread in Note 6 to conform to the current period presentation.
Principles of Consolidation
We consolidate all entities that we control through either majority ownership or voting rights. In addition, we consolidate all VIEs of which we are considered the primary beneficiary. VIEs are defined as entities in which equity investors (i) do not have an interest with the characteristics of a controlling financial interest and/or (ii) do not have sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support from other parties. The entity that consolidates a VIE is known as its primary beneficiary and is generally the entity with (i) the power to direct the activities that most significantly affect the VIE’s economic performance and (ii) the right to receive benefits from the VIE or the obligation to absorb losses of the VIE that could be significant to the VIE.
In 2017, we entered into a joint venture, or our Multifamily Joint Venture, with Walker & Dunlop Inc. to originate, hold, and finance multifamily bridge loans. Pursuant to the terms of the agreements governing the joint venture, Walker &
9


Blackstone Mortgage Trust, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued) (Unaudited)
Dunlop contributed 15% of the venture’s equity capital and we contributed 85%. We consolidate the Multifamily Joint Venture as we have a controlling financial interest. The non-controlling interests included on our consolidated balance sheets represent the equity interests in our Multifamily Joint Venture that are owned by Walker & Dunlop. A portion of our Multifamily Joint Venture’s consolidated equity and results of operations are allocated to these non-controlling interests based on Walker & Dunlop’s pro rata ownership of our Multifamily Joint Venture.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results may ultimately differ materially from those estimates.
Revenue Recognition
Interest income from our loans receivable portfolio is recognized over the life of each investment using the effective interest method and is recorded on the accrual basis. Recognition of fees, premiums, and discounts associated with these investments is deferred and recorded over the term of the loan as an adjustment to yield. Income accrual is generally suspended for loans at the earlier of the date at which payments become 90 days past due or when, in our opinion, recovery of income and principal becomes doubtful. Interest received is then recorded as income or as a reduction in the amortized cost basis, based on the specific facts and circumstances, until accrual is resumed when the loan becomes contractually current and performance is demonstrated to be resumed. In addition, for loans we originate, the related origination expenses are deferred and recognized as a reduction to interest income, however expenses related to loans we acquire are included in general and administrative expenses as incurred.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents represent cash held in banks and liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less. We may have bank balances in excess of federally insured amounts; however, we deposit our cash and cash equivalents with high credit-quality institutions to minimize credit risk exposure. We have not experienced, and do not expect, any losses on our cash or cash equivalents. As of both March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we had no restricted cash on our consolidated balance sheets.
Through our subsidiaries, we have oversight of certain servicing accounts held with third-party servicers, or Servicing Accounts, which relate to borrower escrows and other cash balances aggregating $582.3 million and $640.6 million as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. This cash is maintained in segregated bank accounts, and these amounts are not included in the assets and liabilities presented in our consolidated balance sheets. Cash in these Servicing Accounts will be transferred by the respective third-party servicer to the borrower or us under the terms of the applicable loan agreement upon occurrence of certain future events. We do not generate any revenue or incur any expenses as a result of these Servicing Accounts.
Loans Receivable
We originate and purchase commercial real estate debt and related instruments generally to be held as long-term investments at amortized cost.
Current Expected Credit Losses Reserve
The current expected credit loss, or CECL, reserve required under the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, Accounting Standards Codification, or ASC, Topic 326 “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses,” or ASC 326, reflects our current estimate of potential credit losses related to our loans and notes receivable included in our consolidated balance sheets. Changes to the CECL reserves are recognized through net income on our consolidated statements of operations. While ASC 326 does not require any particular method for determining the CECL reserves, it does specify the reserves should be based on relevant information about past events, including historical loss experience, current portfolio and market conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts for the duration of each respective loan. In addition, other than a few narrow exceptions, ASC 326 requires that all financial instruments subject to the CECL model have some amount of loss reserve to reflect the principle underlying the CECL model that all loans and similar assets have some inherent risk of loss, regardless of credit quality, subordinate capital, or other mitigating factors.
10


Blackstone Mortgage Trust, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued) (Unaudited)
We estimate our CECL reserves primarily using the Weighted-Average Remaining Maturity, or WARM method, which has been identified as an acceptable loss-rate method for estimating CECL reserves in FASB Staff Q&A Topic 326, No. 1. The WARM method requires us to reference historic loan loss data across a comparable data set and apply such loss rate to each of our loans over their expected remaining term, taking into consideration expected economic conditions over the relevant timeframe. We apply the WARM method for the majority of our loan portfolio, which consists of loans that share similar risk characteristics. In certain instances, for loans with unique risk characteristics, we may instead use a probability-weighted model that considers the likelihood of default and expected loss given default for each such individual loan.
Application of the WARM method to estimate CECL reserves requires judgment, including (i) the appropriate historical loan loss reference data, (ii) the expected timing and amount of future loan fundings and repayments, and (iii) the current credit quality of our portfolio and our expectations of performance and market conditions over the relevant time period. To estimate the historic loan losses relevant to our portfolio, we have augmented our historical loan performance, with market loan loss data licensed from Trepp LLC. This database includes commercial mortgage-backed securities, or CMBS, issued since January 1, 1999 through February 29, 2024. Within this database, we focused our historical loss reference calculations on the most relevant subset of available CMBS data, which we determined based on loan metrics that are most comparable to our loan portfolio including asset type, geography, and origination loan-to-value, or LTV. We believe this CMBS data, which includes month-over-month loan and property performance, is the most relevant, available, and comparable dataset to our portfolio.
Our loans typically include commitments to fund incremental proceeds to our borrowers over the life of the loan. These future funding commitments are also subject to the CECL model. The CECL reserve related to future loan fundings is recorded as a component of other liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets. This CECL reserve is estimated using the same process outlined above for our outstanding loan balances, and changes in this component of the CECL reserve will similarly impact our consolidated net income. For both the funded and unfunded portions of our loans, we consider our internal risk rating of each loan as the primary credit quality indicator underlying our assessment.
The CECL reserves are measured on a collective basis wherever similar risk characteristics exist within a pool of similar assets. We have identified the following pools and measure the reserve for credit losses using the following methods:
U.S. Loans: WARM method that incorporates a subset of historical loss data, expected weighted-average remaining maturity of our loan pool, and an economic view.
Non-U.S. Loans: WARM method that incorporates a subset of historical loss data, expected weighted-average remaining maturity of our loan pool, and an economic view.
Unique Loans: a probability of default and loss given default model, assessed on an individual basis.
Impaired Loans: impairment is indicated when it is deemed probable that we will not be able to collect all amounts due to us pursuant to the contractual terms of the loan. Determining that a loan is impaired requires significant judgment from management and is based on several factors including (i) the underlying collateral performance, (ii) discussions with the borrower, (iii) borrower events of default, and (iv) other facts that impact the borrower’s ability to pay the contractual amounts due under the terms of the loan. If a loan is determined to be impaired, we record the impairment as a component of our CECL reserves by applying the practical expedient for collateral dependent loans. The CECL reserves are assessed on an individual basis for these loans by comparing the estimated fair value of the underlying collateral, less costs to sell, to the book value of the respective loan. These valuations require significant judgments, which include assumptions regarding capitalization rates, discount rates, leasing, creditworthiness of major tenants, occupancy rates, availability and cost of financing, exit plan, loan sponsorship, actions of other lenders, and other factors deemed relevant by us. Actual losses, if any, could ultimately differ materially from these estimates. We only expect to charge-off the impairment losses in our consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP if and when such amounts are deemed non-recoverable. This is generally at the time a loan is repaid or foreclosed. However, non-recoverability may also be concluded if, in our determination, it is nearly certain that all amounts due will not be collected.
Contractual Term and Unfunded Loan Commitments
Expected credit losses are estimated over the contractual term of each loan, adjusted for expected repayments. As part of our quarterly review of our loan portfolio, we assess the expected repayment date of each loan, which is used to determine the contractual term for purposes of computing our CECL reserves.
Additionally, the expected credit losses over the contractual period of our loans are subject to the obligation to extend credit through our unfunded loan commitments. The CECL reserve for unfunded loan commitments is adjusted quarterly,
11


Blackstone Mortgage Trust, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued) (Unaudited)
as we consider the expected timing of future funding obligations over the estimated life of the loan. The considerations in estimating our CECL reserve for unfunded loan commitments are similar to those used for the related outstanding loans receivable.
Credit Quality Indicator
Our risk rating is our primary credit quality indicator in assessing our current expected credit loss reserve. We perform a quarterly risk review of our portfolio of loans, and assign each loan a risk rating based on a variety of factors, including, without limitation, origination LTV, debt yield, property type, geographic and local market dynamics, physical condition, cash flow volatility, leasing and tenant profile, loan structure and exit plan, and project sponsorship. Based on a 5-point scale, our loans are rated “l” through “5,” from less risk to greater risk, relative to our loan portfolio in the aggregate, which ratings are defined as follows:
1 -Very Low Risk
2 -Low Risk
3 -Medium Risk
4 -High Risk/Potential for Loss: A loan that has a risk of realizing a principal loss.
5 -Impaired/Loss Likely: A loan that has a very high risk of realizing a principal loss or has otherwise incurred a principal loss.

Estimation of Economic Conditions
In addition to the WARM method computations and probability-weighted models described above, our CECL reserves are also adjusted to reflect our estimation of the current and future economic conditions that impact the performance of the commercial real estate assets securing our loans. These estimations include unemployment rates, interest rates, expectations of inflation and/or recession, and other macroeconomic factors impacting the likelihood and magnitude of potential credit losses for our loans during their anticipated term. In addition to the CMBS data we have licensed from Trepp LLC, we have also licensed certain macroeconomic financial forecasts to inform our view of the potential future impact that broader economic conditions may have on our loan portfolio’s performance. We generally also incorporate information from other sources, including information and opinions available to our Manager, to further inform these estimations. This process requires significant judgments about future events that, while based on the information available to us as of the balance sheet date, are ultimately indeterminate and the actual economic condition impacting our portfolio could vary significantly from the estimates we made as of March 31, 2024.
Real Estate Owned
We may assume legal title or physical possession of the collateral underlying a loan through a foreclosure or the execution of a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure. These real estate acquisitions are classified as real estate owned, or REO, on our consolidated balance sheet and are initially recognized at fair value on the acquisition date in accordance with the ASC Topic 805, “Business Combinations.”
Upon acquisition of REO, we assess the fair value of acquired tangible and intangible assets, which may include land, buildings, tenant improvements, “above-market” and “below-market” leases, acquired in-place leases, other identified intangible assets and assumed liabilities, as applicable, and allocate the fair value to the acquired assets and assumed liabilities. We assess and consider fair value based on estimated cash flow projections that utilize discount and/or capitalization rates that we deem appropriate, as well as other available market information. Estimates of future cash flows are based on a number of factors including the historical operating results, known and anticipated trends, and market and economic conditions. We capitalize acquisition-related costs associated with asset acquisitions.
Real estate assets held for investment, except for land, are depreciated using the straight-line method over the assets’ estimated useful lives of up to 40 years for buildings and 10 years for tenant improvements. Renovations and/or replacements that improve or extend the life of the asset are capitalized and depreciated over their estimated useful lives. The cost of ordinary repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred.
Real estate assets held for investment are assessed for impairment on a quarterly basis. If the depreciated cost basis of the asset exceeds the undiscounted cash flows, the asset is considered impaired and the depreciated cost basis is reduced to the fair value. The impairment loss is recognized based on the excess of the carrying amount of the asset over its fair value. The evaluation of anticipated future cash flows is highly subjective and is based in part on assumptions regarding future
12


Blackstone Mortgage Trust, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued) (Unaudited)
occupancy, rental rates, capital requirements and anticipated holding periods that could differ materially from actual results.
Real estate assets are classified as held for sale in the period when they meet the criteria under ASC Topic 360 “Property, Plant, and Equipment.” Once a real estate asset is classified as held for sale, depreciation is suspended and the asset is reported at the lower of its carrying value or fair value less cost to sell.
As of March 31, 2024, we had one REO asset which was vacant and classified as held for investment.
Derivative Financial Instruments
We classify all derivative financial instruments as either other assets or other liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets at fair value.
On the date we enter into a derivative contract, we designate each contract as (i) a hedge of a net investment in a foreign operation, or net investment hedge, (ii) a hedge of a forecasted transaction or of the variability of cash flows to be received or paid related to a recognized asset or liability, or cash flow hedge, (iii) a hedge of a recognized asset or liability, or fair value hedge, or (iv) a derivative instrument not to be designated as a hedging derivative, or non-designated hedge. For all derivatives other than those designated as non-designated hedges, we formally document our hedge relationships and designation at the contract’s inception. This documentation includes the identification of the hedging instruments and the hedged items, its risk management objectives, strategy for undertaking the hedge transaction and our evaluation of the effectiveness of its hedged transaction.
On a quarterly basis, we also formally assess whether the derivative we designated in each hedging relationship is expected to be, and has been, highly effective in offsetting changes in the value or cash flows of the hedged items. If it is determined that a derivative is not highly effective at hedging the designated exposure, hedge accounting is discontinued and the changes in fair value of the instrument are included in net income prospectively. Our net investment hedges are assessed using a method based on changes in spot exchange rates. Gains and losses, representing hedge components excluded from the assessment of effectiveness, are recognized in interest income on our consolidated statements of operations over the contractual term of our net investment hedges on a systematic and rational basis, as documented at hedge inception in accordance with our accounting policy election. All other changes in the fair value of our derivative instruments that qualify as hedges are reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) on our consolidated financial statements. Deferred gains and losses are reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and into net income in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings, and are presented in the same line item as the earnings effect of the hedged item. For cash flow hedges, this is typically when the periodic swap settlements are made, while for net investment hedges, this occurs when the hedged item is sold or substantially liquidated. To the extent a derivative does not qualify for hedge accounting and is deemed a non-designated hedge, the changes in its fair value are included in net income concurrently.
Proceeds or payments from periodic settlements of derivative instruments are classified on our consolidated statement of cash flows in the same section as the underlying hedged item.
Secured Debt and Asset-Specific Debt
We record investments financed with secured debt or asset-specific debt as separate assets and the related borrowings under any secured debt or asset-specific debt are recorded as separate liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets. Interest income earned on the investments and interest expense incurred on the secured debt or asset-specific debt are reported separately on our consolidated statements of operations.
Loan Participations Sold
In certain instances, we have executed a syndication of a non-recourse loan interest to a third-party. Depending on the particular structure of the syndication, the loan interest may remain on our GAAP balance sheet or, in other cases, the sale will be recognized and the loan interest will no longer be included in our consolidated financial statements. When these sales are not recognized under GAAP we reflect the transaction by recording a loan participation sold liability on our consolidated balance sheet, however this gross presentation does not impact stockholders’ equity or net income. When the sales are recognized, our balance sheet only includes our remaining loan interest, and excludes the interest in the loan that we sold.
13


Blackstone Mortgage Trust, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued) (Unaudited)
Term Loans
We record our term loans as liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets. Where applicable, any issue discount or transaction expenses are deferred and amortized through the maturity date of the term loans as additional non-cash interest expense.
Senior Secured Notes
We record our senior secured notes as liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets. Where applicable, any issue discount or transaction expenses are deferred and amortized through the maturity date of the senior secured notes as additional non-cash interest expense.
Convertible Notes
Convertible note proceeds, unless issued with a substantial premium or an embedded conversion feature, are classified as debt. Additionally, shares issuable under our convertible notes are included in diluted earnings per share in our consolidated financial statements, if the effect is dilutive, using the if-converted method, regardless of settlement intent. Where applicable, any issue discount or transaction expenses are deferred and amortized through the maturity date of the convertible notes as additional non-cash interest expense.
Deferred Financing Costs
The deferred financing costs that are included as a reduction in the net book value of the related liability on our consolidated balance sheets include issuance and other costs related to our debt obligations. These costs are amortized as interest expense using the effective interest method over the life of the related obligations.
Underwriting Commissions and Offering Costs
Underwriting commissions and offering costs incurred in connection with common stock offerings are reflected as a reduction of additional paid-in capital. Costs incurred that are not directly associated with the completion of a common stock offering are expensed when incurred.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” Topic of the FASB, or ASC 820, defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and requires certain disclosures about fair value measurements under GAAP. Specifically, this guidance defines fair value based on exit price, or the price that would be received upon the sale of an asset or the transfer of a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.
ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes and ranks the level of market price observability used in measuring financial instruments. Market price observability is affected by a number of factors, including the type of financial instrument, the characteristics specific to the financial instrument, and the state of the marketplace, including the existence and transparency of transactions between market participants. Financial instruments with readily available quoted prices in active markets generally will have a higher degree of market price observability and a lesser degree of judgment used in measuring fair value.
Financial instruments measured and reported at fair value are classified and disclosed based on the observability of inputs used in the determination, as follows:
Level 1: Generally includes only unadjusted quoted prices that are available in active markets for identical financial instruments as of the reporting date.
Level 2: Pricing inputs include quoted prices in active markets for similar instruments, quoted prices in less active or inactive markets for identical or similar instruments where multiple price quotes can be obtained, and other observable inputs, such as interest rates, yield curves, credit risks, and default rates.
Level 3: Pricing inputs are unobservable for the financial instruments and include situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the financial instrument. These inputs require significant judgment or estimation by management of third-parties when determining fair value and generally represent anything that does not meet the criteria of Levels 1 and 2.

Certain of our other assets are reported at fair value, as of quarter-end, either (i) on a recurring basis or (ii) on a nonrecurring basis, as a result of impairment or other events. Our assets that are recorded at fair value are discussed further in Note 18. We generally value our assets recorded at fair value by either (i) discounting expected cash flows based on assumptions regarding the collection of principal and interest and estimated market rates, or (ii) obtaining assessments from third-parties. For collateral-dependent loans that are identified as impaired, we measure impairment by comparing our estimation of the fair value of the underlying collateral, less costs to sell, to the book value of the respective loan. These valuations require significant judgments, which include assumptions regarding capitalization rates, discount rates, leasing, creditworthiness of major tenants, occupancy rates, availability and cost of financing, exit plan, loan sponsorship, actions of other lenders, and other factors.
As of March 31, 2024, we had an aggregate $602.6 million asset-specific CECL reserve related to 17 of our loans receivable with an aggregate amortized cost basis of $2.4 billion, net of cost-recovery proceeds. The CECL reserve was recorded based on our estimation of the fair value of the loans' aggregate underlying collateral as of March 31, 2024. These loans receivable are therefore measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis using significant unobservable inputs, and are classified as Level 3 assets in the fair value hierarchy. We estimated the fair value of these loans receivable by considering a variety of inputs including property performance, market data, and comparable sales, as applicable. The significant unobservable inputs used include the exit capitalization rate assumption used to forecast the future sale price of the underlying real estate collateral, which ranged from 6.00% to 8.55%, and the unlevered discount rate, which ranged from 7.28% to 11.00%.
On March 19, 2024, we acquired legal title to an office property located in Mountain View, CA through a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure. At the time of acquisition, we determined the fair value of the real estate assets to be $60.2 million based on a variety of inputs including, but not limited to, estimated cash flow projections, leasing assumptions, required capital expenditures, market data, and comparable sales. This REO asset is measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis using significant unobservable inputs and is classified as a Level 3 asset in the fair value hierarchy. The significant unobservable inputs used include the exit capitalization rate assumption used to forecast the future sale price of the asset of 7.00% and a discount rate of 9.50%.
We are also required by GAAP to disclose fair value information about financial instruments, which are not otherwise reported at fair value in our consolidated balance sheet, to the extent it is practicable to estimate a fair value for those instruments. These disclosure requirements exclude certain financial instruments and all non-financial instruments.
The following methods and assumptions are used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments, for which it is practicable to estimate that value:

Cash and cash equivalents: The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents approximates fair value.

Loans receivable, net: The fair values of these loans were estimated using a discounted cash flow methodology, taking into consideration various factors including capitalization rates, discount rates, leasing, credit worthiness of major tenants, occupancy rates, availability and cost of financing, exit plan, loan sponsorship, actions of other lenders, and other factors.

Derivative financial instruments: The fair value of our foreign currency and interest rate contracts was estimated using advice from a third-party derivative specialist, based on contractual cash flows and observable inputs comprising foreign currency rates and credit spreads.

Secured debt, net: The fair value of these instruments was estimated based on the rate at which a similar credit facility would currently be priced.

Securitized debt obligations, net: The fair value of these instruments was estimated by utilizing third-party pricing service providers. In determining the value of a particular investment, pricing service providers may use broker-dealer quotations, reported trades, or valuation estimates from their internal pricing models to determine the reported price.

Asset-specific debt, net: The fair value of these instruments was estimated based on the rate at which a similar agreement would currently be priced.

15


Blackstone Mortgage Trust, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued) (Unaudited)
Loan participations sold, net: The fair value of these instruments was estimated based on the value of the related loan receivable asset.

Term loans, net: The fair value of these instruments was estimated by utilizing third-party pricing service providers. In determining the value of a particular investment, pricing service providers may use broker-dealer quotations, reported trades, or valuation estimates from their internal pricing models to determine the reported price.

Senior secured notes, net: The fair value of these instruments was estimated by utilizing third-party pricing service providers. In determining the value of a particular investment, pricing service providers may use broker-dealer quotations, reported trades, or valuation estimates from their internal pricing models to determine the reported price.

Convertible notes, net: Each series of the convertible notes is actively traded and their fair values were obtained using quoted market prices.
Income Taxes
Our financial results generally do not reflect provisions for current or deferred income taxes on our REIT taxable income. We believe that we operate in a manner that will continue to allow us to be taxed as a REIT and, as a result, we generally do not expect to pay substantial corporate level taxes other than those payable by our taxable REIT subsidiaries. If we were to fail to meet these requirements, we may be subject to federal, state, and local income tax on current and past income, and penalties. Refer to Note 16 for additional information.
Stock-Based Compensation
Our stock-based compensation consists of awards issued to our Manager, certain individuals employed by an affiliate of our Manager, and certain members of our board of directors that vest over the life of the awards, as well as deferred stock units issued to certain members of our board of directors. Stock-based compensation expense is recognized for these awards in net income on a variable basis over the applicable vesting period of the awards, based on the value of our class A common stock. Refer to Note 17 for additional information.
Earnings per Share
Basic earnings per share, or Basic EPS, is computed in accordance with the two-class method and is based on (i) the net earnings allocable to our class A common stock, including restricted class A common stock and deferred stock units, divided by (ii) the weighted-average number of shares of our class A common stock, including restricted class A common stock and deferred stock units outstanding during the period. Our restricted class A common stock is considered a participating security, as defined by GAAP, and has been included in our Basic EPS under the two-class method as these restricted shares have the same rights as our other shares of class A common stock, including participating in any gains or losses.
Diluted earnings per share, or Diluted EPS, is determined using the if-converted method, and is based on (i) the net earnings, adjusted for interest expense incurred on our convertible notes during the relevant period, net of incentive fees, allocable to our class A common stock, including restricted class A common stock and deferred stock units, divided by (ii) the weighted-average number of shares of our class A common stock, including restricted class A common stock, deferred stock units, and shares of class A common stock issuable under our convertible notes. Refer to Note 14 for additional discussion of earnings per share.
Foreign Currency
In the normal course of business, we enter into transactions not denominated in United States, or U.S., dollars. Foreign exchange gains and losses arising on such transactions are recorded as a gain or loss in our consolidated statements of operations. In addition, we consolidate entities that have a non-U.S. dollar functional currency. Non-U.S. dollar denominated assets and liabilities are translated to U.S. dollars at the exchange rate prevailing at the reporting date and income, expenses, gains, and losses are translated at the average exchange rate over the applicable period. Cumulative translation adjustments arising from the translation of non-U.S. dollar denominated subsidiaries are recorded in other comprehensive income (loss).

(1)Unfunded commitments will primarily be funded to finance our borrowers’ construction or development of real estate-related assets, capital improvements of existing assets, or lease-related expenditures. These commitments will generally be funded over the term of each loan, subject in certain cases to an expiration date.
(2)The weighted-average cash coupon and all-in yield are expressed as a spread over the relevant floating benchmark rates, which include SOFR, SONIA, EURIBOR, and other indices, as applicable to each loan. As of both March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, substantially all of our loans by principal balance earned a floating rate of interest, primarily indexed to SOFR. Floating rate exposure as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 includes an interest rate swap we entered into with a notional amount of $229.9 million that effectively converts certain of our fixed rate loan exposure to floating rate exposure. In addition to cash coupon, all-in yield includes the amortization of deferred origination and extension fees, loan origination costs, and purchase discounts, as well as the accrual of exit fees. Excludes loans accounted for under the cost-recovery method.
(3)Maximum maturity assumes all extension options are exercised by the borrower, however our loans may be repaid prior to such date. As of March 31, 2024, 13% of our loans by principal balance were subject to yield maintenance or other prepayment restrictions and 87% were open to repayment by the borrower without penalty. As of December 31, 2023, 14% of our loans by principal balance were subject to yield maintenance or other prepayment restrictions and 86% were open to repayment by the borrower without penalty.

Loan Risk Ratings         
As further described in Note 2, we evaluate our loan portfolio on a quarterly basis. In conjunction with our quarterly loan portfolio review, we assess the risk factors of each loan, and assign a risk rating based on several factors. Factors considered in the assessment include, but are not limited to, risk of loss, origination LTV, debt yield, collateral performance, structure, exit plan, and sponsorship. Loans are rated “1” (less risk) through “5” (greater risk), which ratings are defined in Note 2.

During the three months ended March 31, 2024, we recorded an increase of $235.4 million in the CECL reserves against our loans receivable portfolio, primarily related to seven new impaired loans, offset by charge-offs of our CECL reserves of $61.0 million, bringing our total loans receivable CECL reserve to $751.4 million as of March 31, 2024. These charge-offs related to three previously impaired loans that were resolved during the three months ended March 31, 2024. The resolutions were the result of (i) a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure related to an office asset in Mountain View, CA, which is now included on our consolidated balance sheet as an REO asset, (ii) the sale of an office asset in Miami, FL to a new borrower, resulting in a repayment of $9.5 million and a reduction to the outstanding principal balance of the loan, and (iii) a repayment of a multifamily asset in New York, NY. As of March 31, 2024, the income accrual was suspended on the seven additional loans that were impaired as the recovery of income and principal was doubtful. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, we recorded $16.8 million of interest income on these seven loans.
As of March 31, 2024, we had an aggregate $602.6 million asset-specific CECL reserve related to 17 of our loans receivable, with an aggregate amortized cost basis of $2.4 billion, net of cost-recovery proceeds. This CECL reserve was recorded based on our estimation of the fair value of each of the loan's underlying collateral as of March 31, 2024. No income was recorded on our impaired loans subsequent to determining that they were impaired. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, we received an aggregate $16.8 million of cash proceeds from such loans that were applied as a reduction to the amortized cost basis of each respective loan.
As of March 31, 2024, one of our impaired loans with an amortized cost basis of $138.8 million was past its current maturity date. This loan was also more than 90 days past due on its interest payment and had a risk rating of “5.” Additionally, as of March 31, 2024, one other impaired loan with an amortized cost basis of $223.4 million was less than 30 days past due on its interest payment and had a risk rating of “5.” As of March 31, 2024, all other borrowers were compliant with the contractual terms of each respective loan, including any required payment of interest.

Loan Modifications Pursuant to ASC 326
During the twelve months ended March 31, 2024, we entered into seven loan modifications that require disclosure pursuant to ASC 326. Five of these loans were collateralized by office assets and two were collateralized by hospitality assets.
Four of the loan modifications included other-than-insignificant payment delays, specifically the option to pay interest in-kind. For one of the loans, the maximum maturity date was extended by one year, the borrower contributed $2.0 million of additional reserves, and the interest rate increased by 5.11%. The second modification included an additional 4.00% exit fee. The third modification included an additional 2.00% exit fee and the interest rate increased by 2.00%. The fourth modification included an additional 3.00% exit fee and the interest rate increased by 4.00%. As of March 31, 2024, the aggregate amortized cost basis of these loans was $634.2 million, or 2.7% of our aggregate loans receivable portfolio, with an aggregate $10.0 million of unfunded commitments. The loans were performing pursuant to their contractual terms as of March 31, 2024, had risk ratings of “5” as of March 31, 2024, and have asset-specific CECL reserves.
The other three loan modifications included a combination of changes to the contractual terms of the loans, including term extensions, other-than-insignificant payment delays, and/or interest rate reductions. The first loan modification included a term extension of 19 months, a rate reduction of 2.74% and conversion to fixed rate, with a portion of the interest paid in-kind. The borrower repaid $4.9 million of the loan at the time of modification, with an additional $2.5 million of repayment due during the initial maturity period. The second loan modification included a term extension of 4.5 years, a rate increase of 8.50% with interest paid in-kind, a borrower contribution of $2.0 million of additional reserves, and a $50.0 million increase in our total loan commitment. The third modification included a term extension of 2.5 years, and the loan was bifurcated into a separate senior loan and mezzanine loan. The senior loan is paying interest current while the mezzanine loan is paying interest in-kind. As of March 31, 2024, the aggregate amortized cost basis of these loans was $632.8 million, or 2.7% of our aggregate loans receivable portfolio, with an aggregate $39.3 million of unfunded commitments. The loans were performing pursuant to their contractual terms as of March 31, 2024. As of March 31, 2024, two of these loans had a risk rating of “4” and two loans had a risk rating of “5.”
Loans with a risk rating of “4” are included in the determination of our general CECL reserve and loans with a risk rating of “5” have an asset-specific CECL reserve. Loan modifications that allow the option to pay interest in-kind increase our potential economics and the size of our secured claim, as interest is capitalized and added to the outstanding principal balance for applicable loans. As of March 31, 2024, no income was recorded on our loans subsequent to determining that they were impaired and risk rated “5.”
Multifamily Joint Venture
As discussed in Note 2, we entered into a Multifamily Joint Venture in April 2017. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, our Multifamily Joint Venture held $614.4 million and $612.9 million of loans, respectively, which are included in the loan disclosures above. Refer to Note 2 for additional discussion of our Multifamily Joint Venture.
4. REAL ESTATE OWNED
On March 19, 2024, we acquired legal title to an office property located in Mountain View, CA through a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure transaction. The office property previously collateralized a senior mortgage loan with an amortized cost basis of $90.2 million that was risk rated a “5” with a CECL reserve of $29.1 million at the time of the transaction. The acquisition was accounted for as an asset acquisition under ASC Topic 805 “Business Combinations,” and upon acquisition we recognized the office property as an REO asset held for investment. The REO asset was recorded on our consolidated balance sheet at $60.2 million based on its estimated fair value at acquisition. This resulted in a CECL reserve charge-off of $29.1 million during the three months ended March 31, 2024. See Note 2 for additional information on REO.

The expected credit losses over the contractual period of our loans is impacted by our obligation to extend further credit through our unfunded loan commitments. See Note 2 for further discussion of the CECL reserves related to our unfunded loan commitments, and Note 21 for further discussion of our unfunded loan commitments. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, we recorded a decrease in the CECL reserves related to our unfunded loan commitments of $2.7 million, bringing our total unfunded loan commitments CECL reserve to $12.6 million as of March 31, 2024. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, we recorded a decrease in the CECL reserves related to our unfunded loan commitments of $631,000, bringing our total unfunded loan commitments CECL reserve to $15.7 million as of March 31, 2023.

Secured Credit Facilities

Our secured credit facilities are bilateral agreements we use to finance diversified pools of senior loan collateral with sufficient flexibility to accommodate our investment and asset management strategy. The facilities are uniformly structured to provide currency, index, and term-matched financing without capital markets based mark-to-market provisions. Our credit facilities are diversified across 15 counterparties, primarily consisting of top global financial institutions to minimize our counterparty risk exposure.

Acquisition Facility
As of March 31, 2024, we had a $100.0 million full recourse secured credit facility that was designed to finance eligible first mortgage originations for up to nine months as a bridge to term financing without obtaining discretionary lender approval. The cost of borrowing under the facility was variable, dependent on the type of loan collateral. This facility matured on April 3, 2024.
During the three months ended March 31, 2024, we had no borrowings under the acquisition facility and we recorded interest expense of $122,000, including $33,000 of amortization of deferred fees and expenses.

9. LOAN PARTICIPATIONS SOLD, NET
The sale of a non-recourse interest in a loan through a participation agreement generally does not qualify for sale accounting under GAAP. For such transactions, we therefore present the whole loan as an asset and the loan participation sold as a liability on our consolidated balance sheet until the loan is repaid. We generally have no obligation to pay principal and interest under these liabilities, and the gross presentation of loan participations sold does not impact our stockholders’ equity or net income.

13. DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The objective of our use of derivative financial instruments is to minimize the risks and/or costs associated with our investments and/or financing transactions. These derivatives may or may not qualify as net investment, cash flow, or fair value hedges under the hedge accounting requirements of ASC 815 – “Derivatives and Hedging.” Derivatives not designated as hedges are not speculative and are used to manage our exposure to interest rate movements and other identified risks. Refer to Note 2 for additional discussion of the accounting for designated and non-designated hedges.
The use of derivative financial instruments involves certain risks, including the risk that the counterparties to these contractual arrangements do not perform as agreed. To mitigate this risk, we only enter into derivative financial instruments with counterparties that have appropriate credit ratings and are major financial institutions with which we and our affiliates also have other financial relationships.
Net Investment Hedges of Foreign Currency Risk
Certain of our international investments expose us to fluctuations in foreign interest rates and currency exchange rates. These fluctuations may impact the value of our cash receipts and payments in terms of our functional currency, the U.S. dollar. We use foreign currency forward contracts to protect the value or fix the amount of certain investments or cash flows in terms of the U.S. dollar.

Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk
Certain of our financing transactions expose us to a fixed versus floating rate mismatch between our assets and liabilities. We use derivative financial instruments, which include interest rate swaps, and may also include interest rate caps, interest rate options, floors, and other interest rate derivative contracts, to hedge interest rate risk associated with our borrowings where there is potential for an index mismatch.

During the twelve months following March 31, 2024, we estimate that an additional $723,000 will be reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) as a decrease to interest expense.

Credit-Risk Related Contingent Features
We have entered into agreements with certain of our derivative counterparties that contain provisions where if we were to default on any of our indebtedness, including default where repayment of the indebtedness has not been accelerated by the lender, we may also be declared in default on our derivative obligations. In addition, certain of our agreements with our derivative counterparties require that we post collateral to secure net liability positions. As of March 31, 2024, we were in a net asset position with our counterparties. As of March 31, 2024, we had no collateral posted with our counterparties. As of December 31, 2023, we were in a net liability position with our counterparties. As of December 31, 2023, we had $103.5 million of collateral posted with our counterparties.

Subject to applicable NYSE listing requirements, our board of directors is authorized to cause us to issue additional shares of authorized stock without stockholder approval. In addition, to the extent not issued, currently authorized stock may be reclassified between class A common stock and preferred stock. We did not have any shares of preferred stock issued and outstanding as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023.
Class A Common Stock and Deferred Stock Units
Holders of shares of our class A common stock are entitled to vote on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders and are entitled to receive dividends authorized by our board of directors and declared by us, in all cases subject to the rights of the holders of shares of outstanding preferred stock, if any.
We also issue restricted class A common stock under our stock-based incentive plans. Refer to Note 17 for additional discussion of these long-term incentive plans. In addition to our class A common stock, we also issue deferred stock units to certain members of our board of directors for services rendered. These deferred stock units are non-voting, but carry the right to receive dividends in the form of additional deferred stock units in an amount equivalent to the cash dividends paid to holders of shares of class A common stock. Vested deferred stock units will be settled for shares of class A common stock when the recipient ceases to be a director.

Dividend Reinvestment and Direct Stock Purchase Plan
We have adopted a dividend reinvestment and direct stock purchase plan under which we registered and reserved for issuance, in the aggregate, 10,000,000 shares of class A common stock. Under the dividend reinvestment component of this plan, our class A common stockholders can designate all or a portion of their cash dividends to be reinvested in additional shares of class A common stock. The direct stock purchase component allows stockholders and new investors, subject to our approval, to purchase shares of class A common stock directly from us. During the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, we issued 1,436 shares and 1,377 shares, respectively, of class A common stock under the dividend reinvestment component of the plan. As of March 31, 2024, a total of 9,973,525 shares of class A common stock remained available for issuance under the dividend reinvestment and direct stock purchase plan.
At the Market Stock Offering Program
As of March 31, 2024, we are party to seven equity distribution agreements, or ATM Agreements, pursuant to which we may sell, from time to time, up to an aggregate sales price of $699.1 million of our class A common stock. Sales of class A common stock made pursuant to our ATM Agreements may be made in negotiated transactions or transactions that are deemed to be “at the market” offerings as defined in Rule 415 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Actual sales depend on a variety of factors including market conditions, the trading price of our class A common stock, our capital needs, and our determination of the appropriate sources of funding to meet such needs. During the three months ended March 31, 2024 or March 31, 2023, we did not issue any shares of our class A common stock under ATM Agreements. As of March 31, 2024, sales of our class A common stock with an aggregate sales price of $480.9 million remained available for issuance under our ATM Agreements.
Dividends
We generally intend to distribute substantially all of our taxable income, which does not necessarily equal net income as calculated in accordance with GAAP, to our stockholders each year to comply with the REIT provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the Internal Revenue Code. Our dividend policy remains subject to revision at the discretion of our board of directors. All distributions will be made at the discretion of our board of directors and will depend upon our taxable income, our financial condition, our maintenance of REIT status, applicable law, and other factors as our board of directors deems relevant.
On March 15, 2024, we declared a dividend of $0.62 per share, or $107.7 million in aggregate, that was paid on April 15, 2024 to stockholders of record as of March 28, 2024.

Earnings Per Share     
We calculate our basic and diluted earnings per share using the two-class method for all periods presented as the unvested shares of our restricted class A common stock qualify as participating securities, as defined by GAAP. These restricted shares have the same rights as our other shares of class A common stock, including participating in any dividends, and therefore have been included in our basic and diluted net income per share calculation. The shares issuable under our Convertible Notes are included in dilutive earnings per share using the if-converted method.
The following table sets forth the calculation of basic and diluted net income per share of class A common stock based on the weighted-average of both restricted and unrestricted class A common stock outstanding ($ in thousands, except per share data):

Other Balance Sheet Items
Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income
As of March 31, 2024, total accumulated other comprehensive income was $9.9 million, primarily representing $230.0 million of net realized and unrealized gains related to changes in the fair value of derivative instruments offset by $220.1 million of cumulative unrealized currency translation adjustments on assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies. As of December 31, 2023, total accumulated other comprehensive income was $9.5 million, primarily representing $183.9 million of net realized and unrealized gains related to changes in the fair value of derivative instruments offset by $174.4 million of cumulative unrealized currency translation adjustments on assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies.
Non-Controlling Interests
The non-controlling interests included on our consolidated balance sheets represent the equity interests in our Multifamily Joint Venture that are not owned by us. A portion of our Multifamily Joint Venture’s consolidated equity and results of operations are allocated to these non-controlling interests based on their pro rata ownership of our Multifamily Joint Venture. As of March 31, 2024, our Multifamily Joint Venture’s total equity was $132.2 million, of which $112.4 million was owned by us, and $19.8 million was allocated to non-controlling interests. As of December 31, 2023, our Multifamily Joint Venture’s total equity was $132.0 million, of which $112.2 million was owned by us, and $19.8 million was allocated to non-controlling interests.
15. OTHER EXPENSES
Our other expenses consist of the management and incentive fees we pay to our Manager and our general and administrative expenses.
Management and Incentive Fees
Pursuant to a management agreement between our Manager and us, or our Management Agreement, our Manager earns a base management fee in an amount equal to 1.50% per annum multiplied by our Equity, as defined in the Management Agreement. In addition, our Manager is entitled to an incentive fee in an amount equal to the product of (i) 20% and (ii) the excess of (a) our Core Earnings (as defined in our Management Agreement) for the previous 12-month period over (b) an amount equal to 7.00% per annum multiplied by our Equity, provided that our Core Earnings over the prior three-year period is greater than zero. Core Earnings, as defined in our Management Agreement, is generally equal to our GAAP net income (loss), including realized gains and losses not otherwise recognized in current period GAAP net income (loss), and excluding (i) non-cash equity compensation expense, (ii) depreciation and amortization, (iii) unrealized gains (losses), (iv) net income (loss) attributable to our legacy portfolio, (v) certain non-cash items, and (vi) incentive management fees.

During the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, we incurred $18.9 million and $18.6 million, respectively, of management fees payable to our manager. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, we did not incur incentive fees payable to our Manager. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, we incurred $12.5 million of incentive fees payable to our Manager.
As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 we had accrued management and incentive fees payable to our Manager of $18.9 million and $26.3 million, respectively.

16. INCOME TAXES
We have elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code for U.S. federal income tax purposes. We generally must distribute annually at least 90% of our net taxable income, subject to certain adjustments and excluding any net capital gain, in order for U.S. federal income tax not to apply to our earnings. To the extent that we satisfy this distribution requirement, but distribute less than 100% of our net taxable income, we will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on our undistributed taxable income. In addition, we will be subject to a 4% nondeductible excise tax if the actual amount that we pay out to our stockholders in a calendar year is less than a minimum amount specified under U.S. federal tax laws.
Our qualification as a REIT also depends on our ability to meet various other requirements imposed by the Internal Revenue Code, which relate to organizational structure, diversity of stock ownership, and certain restrictions with regard to the nature of our assets and the sources of our income. Even if we qualify as a REIT, we may be subject to certain U.S. federal income and excise taxes and state and local taxes on our income and assets. If we fail to maintain our qualification as a REIT for any taxable year, we may be subject to material penalties as well as federal, state, and local income tax on our taxable income at regular corporate rates and we would not be able to qualify as a REIT for the subsequent four full taxable years. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we were in compliance with all REIT requirements.
Securitization transactions could result in the creation of taxable mortgage pools for federal income tax purposes. As a REIT, so long as we own 100% of the equity interests in a taxable mortgage pool, we generally would not be adversely affected by the characterization of the securitization as a taxable mortgage pool. Certain categories of stockholders, however, such as foreign stockholders eligible for treaty or other benefits, stockholders with net operating losses, and certain tax-exempt stockholders that are subject to unrelated business income tax, or UBTI, could be subject to increased taxes on a portion of their dividend income from us that is attributable to the taxable mortgage pool. We have not made UBTI distributions to our common stockholders and do not intend to make such UBTI distributions in the future.
During the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, we recorded a current income tax provision of $1.0 million, and $1.9 million, respectively, primarily related to activities of our U.S. and foreign taxable subsidiaries and various state and local taxes. We did not have any deferred tax assets or liabilities as of March 31, 2024 or December 31, 2023.
We have net operating losses, or NOLs, generated by our predecessor business that may be carried forward and utilized in current or future periods. As a result of our issuance of 25,875,000 shares of class A common stock in May 2013, the availability of our NOLs is generally limited to $2.0 million per annum by change of control provisions promulgated by the Internal Revenue Service with respect to the ownership of Blackstone Mortgage Trust. As of March 31, 2024, we had estimated NOLs of $159.0 million that will expire in 2029, unless they are utilized by us prior to expiration. Previously, we recorded a full valuation allowance against such NOLs as we expected that they would expire unutilized. However, although uncertain, we may utilize a portion of NOLs prior to expiration. We do not expect the utilization of NOLs to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. We have recorded a full valuation allowance against such NOLs as it is probable that they will expire unutilized.

As of March 31, 2024, tax years 2020 through 2023 remain subject to examination by taxing authorities.
17. STOCK-BASED INCENTIVE PLANS
We are externally managed by our Manager and do not currently have any employees. However, as of March 31, 2024, our Manager, certain individuals employed by an affiliate of our Manager, and certain members of our board of directors were compensated, in part, through our issuance of stock-based instruments.
Under our two current stock incentive plans, a maximum of 10,400,000 shares of our class A common stock may be issued to our Manager, our directors and officers, and certain employees of affiliates of our Manager. As of March 31, 2024, there were 7,373,003 shares available under our current stock incentive plans. Prior to the adoption and shareholder approval of our new stock incentive plans in June 2022, we had stock-based incentive awards outstanding under nine stock incentive plans. In connection with the adoption of our new stock incentive plans, we consolidated all outstanding deferred stock units, or DSUs, under the new plans and retired the seven remaining historical plans. As such, no new awards may be issued under these expired plans, although our 2018 plans will continue to govern outstanding awards, other than DSUs, previously issued thereunder until such awards become vested or expire.
The following table details the movement in our outstanding shares of restricted class A common stock and the weighted-average grant date fair value per share:

These shares generally vest in installments over a period of three years, pursuant to the terms of the respective award agreements and the terms of our current benefit plans. The 2,345,996 shares of restricted class A common stock outstanding as of March 31, 2024 will vest as follows: 1,055,359 shares will vest in 2024; 848,837 shares will vest in 2025; and 441,800 shares will vest in 2026. As of March 31, 2024, total unrecognized compensation cost relating to unvested share-based compensation arrangements was $50.8 million based on the grant date fair value of shares granted. This cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.1 years from March 31, 2024.

19. VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES
We have financed a portion of our loans through the CLOs, all of which are VIEs. We are the primary beneficiary of, and therefore consolidate, the CLOs on our balance sheet as we (i) control the relevant interests of the CLOs that give us power to direct the activities that most significantly affect the CLOs, and (ii) have the right to receive benefits and obligation to absorb losses of the CLOs through the subordinate interests we own.

Assets held by these VIEs are restricted and can be used only to settle obligations of the VIEs, including the subordinate interests owned by us. The liabilities of these VIEs are non-recourse to us and can only be satisfied from the assets of the VIEs. The consolidation of these VIEs results in an increase in our gross assets, liabilities, interest income and interest expense, however it does not affect our stockholders’ equity or net income. We are not obligated to provide, have not provided, and do not intend to provide material financial support to these consolidated VIEs.

20. TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES
We are managed by our Manager pursuant to the Management Agreement, the current term of which expires on December 19, 2024, and will be automatically renewed for a one-year term upon such date and each anniversary thereafter unless earlier terminated.
As of March 31, 2024, our consolidated balance sheet included $18.9 million of accrued management fees payable to our Manager and no accrued incentive fees. As of December 31, 2023, our consolidated balance sheet included $26.3 million of accrued management and incentive fees payable to our Manager. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, we paid aggregate management and incentive fees of $26.3 million, compared to $33.8 million during the same period of 2023. In addition, during the three months ended March 31, 2024, we incurred expenses of $221,000 that were paid by our Manager and will be reimbursed by us, compared to $382,000 of such expenses during the same period of 2023.
As of March 31, 2024, our Manager held 1,207,623 shares of unvested restricted class A common stock, which had an aggregate grant date fair value of $29.3 million, and vest in installments over three years from the date of issuance. During the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, we recorded non-cash expenses related to shares held by our Manager of $4.3 million and $3.9 million, respectively. Refer to Note 17 for further details on our restricted class A common stock.
As of March 31, 2024, our Manager, its affiliates, Blackstone employees, and our directors held an aggregate 12,848,779 shares, or 7.4%, of our class A common stock, of which 7,582,044 shares, or 4.4%, were held by subsidiaries of Blackstone, including our Manager. Additionally, our directors held 370,173 of deferred stock units as of March 31, 2024.
CT Investment Management Co., LLC, or CTIMCO, an affiliate of our Manager, is the special servicer of the CLOs. CTIMCO did not earn any special servicing fees related to the CLOs during the during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023.
We have engaged EQ Management, LLC, a portfolio company owned by a Blackstone-advised investment vehicle, to provide management services and operational services, as well as a limited scope of corporate support services, to our REO asset. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, we did not incur any expenses for these services.
In the first quarter of 2024, in order to provide insurance for our REO asset, we became a member of Gryphon Mutual Property Americas IC, or Gryphon, a captive insurance company owned by us and other Blackstone-advised investment vehicles. A Blackstone affiliate provides oversight and advisory services to Gryphon and receives fees based on a percentage of premiums paid for such policies. The fees and expenses of Gryphon, including insurance premiums and fees paid to its manager, are paid annually and borne by us and the other Blackstone-advised investment vehicles that are members of Gryphon pro rata based on insurance premiums paid for each party’s respective properties.
During the three months ended March 31, 2024, we paid $109,000 to Gryphon for insurance costs, inclusive of premiums, capital surplus contributions, taxes, and our pro rata share of other expenses. This amount covers the period starting on the date we became a member of Gryphon and ending in July, when the annual payment for the upcoming policy period will be due for us and the other Blackstone-advised investment vehicles that are members of Gryphon. Of this amount, $2,000 was attributable to the fee paid to a Blackstone affiliate to provide oversight and management services to Gryphon.
We have engaged Revantage Corporate Services, LLC and Revantage Global Services Europe S.à r.l., portfolio companies owned by Blackstone-advised investment vehicles, to provide, as applicable, corporate support services, operational services, and management services. These services are provided on an allocated cost basis. During the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, we incurred $251,000 and $214,000, respectively, of expenses to this service provider.
Additionally, we have engaged an affiliate of our Manager to provide internal audit services. During both the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, we incurred $24,000 of expenses to this service provider.

Affiliates of our Manager own an interest in the controlling entity of BTIG, LLC, or BTIG. We utilized BTIG as a broker to engage third-parties to facilitate our repurchase of our Senior Secured Notes. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, we repurchased $26.2 million of our Senior Secured Notes utilizing BTIG as a broker. BTIG received aggregate fees of $40,000 in such capacity. The fees were on terms equivalent to those of other brokers under similar arrangements. BTIG did not act as a broker to engage third parties to repurchase our Senior Secured Notes during the three months ended March 31, 2023.

Blackstone Mortgage Trust, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued) (Unaudited)
In the first quarter of 2024, a Blackstone-advised investment vehicle originated a loan to one of our unaffiliated third-party borrowers, the proceeds of which repaid a $98.6 million performing senior loan owned by us. The transaction was initiated by the third-party borrower with the loan terms and pricing on market terms.
In the first quarter of 2019, we originated £240.1 million of a total £490.0 million senior loan to a borrower that is wholly owned by a Blackstone-advised investment vehicle. The loan terms were negotiated by our third-party co-lender, and we forgo all non-economic rights under the loan, including voting rights, so long as a Blackstone-advised investment vehicle controls the borrower. In the second quarter of 2023, the loan was modified to include, among other changes, an extension of the loan's maturity date, an additional borrower equity contribution and partial repayment, and an increase in the loan’s contractual interest rate (a portion of which is paid-in-kind). The terms of the modification were negotiated by our third-party co-lender, and we agreed to the modification on such terms.
21. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Unfunded Commitments Under Loans Receivable
As of March 31, 2024, we had aggregate unfunded commitments of $2.1 billion across 90 loans receivable, and $1.0 billion of committed or identified financings for those commitments, resulting in net unfunded commitments of $1.0 billion. The unfunded loan commitments comprise funding for capital expenditures and construction, leasing costs, and interest and carry costs. Loan funding commitments are generally subject to certain conditions, including, without limitation, the progress of capital projects, leasing, and cash flows at the properties securing our loans. Therefore, the exact timing and amounts of such future loan fundings are uncertain and will depend on the current and future performance of the underlying collateral assets. We expect to fund our loan commitments over the remaining term of the related loans, which have a weighted-average future funding period of 2.2 years.

(1)Our secured debt and asset-specific debt agreements are generally term-matched to their underlying collateral. Therefore, the allocation of payments under such agreements is generally allocated based on the maximum maturity date of the collateral loans, assuming all extension options are exercised by the borrower. In limited instances, the maturity date of the respective debt agreement is used.
(2)The Term Loans are partially amortizing, with an amount equal to 1.0% per annum of the initial principal balance due in quarterly installments. Refer to Note 10 for further details on our Term Loans.

Introduction
Blackstone Mortgage Trust is a real estate finance company that originates senior loans collateralized by commercial real estate in North America, Europe, and Australia. Our portfolio is composed primarily of loans secured by high-quality, institutional assets in major markets, sponsored by experienced, well-capitalized real estate investment owners and operators. These senior loans are capitalized by accessing a variety of financing options, including borrowing under our credit facilities, issuing CLOs or single-asset securitizations, and corporate financing, depending on our view of the most prudent financing option available for each of our investments. We are not in the business of buying or trading securities, and the only securities we own are the retained interests from our securitization financing transactions, which we have not financed. We are externally managed by BXMT Advisors L.L.C., or our Manager, a subsidiary of Blackstone Inc., or Blackstone, and are a real estate investment trust, or REIT, traded on the New York Stock Exchange, or NYSE, under the symbol “BXMT.”
We benefit from the deep knowledge, experience and information advantages of our Manager, which is a part of Blackstone’s real estate platform. Blackstone has built the world's preeminent global real estate business, with a proven track record of successfully navigating market cycles and emerging stronger through periods of volatility. The market-leading real estate expertise derived from the strength of the Blackstone platform deeply informs our credit and underwriting process, and we believe gives us the tools to expertly manage the assets in our portfolio and work with our borrowers throughout periods of economic stress and uncertainty.
We conduct our operations as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes. We generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income taxes on our taxable income to the extent that we annually distribute all of our net taxable income to stockholders and maintain our qualification as a REIT. We also operate our business in a manner that permits us to maintain an exclusion from registration under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. We are organized as a holding company and conduct our business primarily through our various subsidiaries.
Recent Developments

Macroeconomic Environment

The three months ended March 31, 2024 have shown a mix of positive and challenging developments leading to continued volatility in global markets. Investor concerns over inflation, interest rates, slowing economic growth, political and regulatory uncertainty and geopolitical conditions have persisted. If inflation and other economic indicators do not meet central banks’ relevant expectations, interest rates could remain higher for longer than expected by market participants and observers, which could create further uncertainty for the economy and our borrowers.
I. Key Financial Measures and Indicators
As a real estate finance company, we believe the key financial measures and indicators for our business are earnings per share, dividends declared, Distributable Earnings, and book value per share. For the three months ended March 31, 2024, we recorded a basic net loss per share of $0.71, declared a dividend of $0.62 per share, and reported $0.33 per share of
47


Distributable Earnings. In addition, our book value as of March 31, 2024 was $23.83 per share, which is net of cumulative CECL reserves of $4.40 per share.
As further described below, Distributable Earnings is a measure that is not prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, or GAAP. Distributable Earnings helps us to evaluate our performance excluding the effects of certain transactions and GAAP adjustments that we believe are not necessarily indicative of our current loan portfolio and operations. In addition, Distributable Earnings is a performance metric we consider when declaring our dividends.
Earnings Per Share and Dividends Declared
The following table sets forth the calculation of basic net loss per share and dividends declared per share ($ in thousands, except per share data):

Dividends declared per share$0.62 $0.62 
(1)Represents net loss attributable to Blackstone Mortgage Trust. Refer to Note 14 to our consolidated financial statements for the calculation of diluted net income per share.
Distributable Earnings
Distributable Earnings is a non-GAAP measure, which we define as GAAP net income (loss), including realized gains and losses not otherwise recognized in current period GAAP net income (loss), and excluding (i) non-cash equity compensation expense, (ii) depreciation and amortization, (iii) unrealized gains (losses), and (iv) certain non-cash items. Distributable Earnings may also be adjusted from time to time to exclude one-time events pursuant to changes in GAAP and certain other non-cash charges as determined by our Manager, subject to approval by a majority of our independent directors. Distributable Earnings mirrors the terms of our management agreement between our Manager and us, or our Management Agreement, for purposes of calculating our incentive fee expense.
Our CECL reserves have been excluded from Distributable Earnings consistent with other unrealized gains (losses) pursuant to our existing policy for reporting Distributable Earnings. We expect to only recognize such potential credit losses in Distributable Earnings if and when such amounts are realized and deemed non-recoverable upon a realization event. This is generally at the time a loan is repaid, or in the case of foreclosure, when the underlying asset is sold, but realization and non-recoverability may also be concluded if, in our determination, it is nearly certain that all amounts due will not be collected. The timing of any such credit loss realization in our Distributable Earnings may differ materially from the timing of CECL reserves or charge-offs in our consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. The realized loss amount reflected in Distributable Earnings will equal the difference between the cash received, or expected to be received, and the book value of the asset, and is reflective of our economic experience as it relates to the ultimate realization of the loan.
We believe that Distributable Earnings provides meaningful information to consider in addition to our net income (loss) and cash flow from operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP. We believe Distributable Earnings is a useful financial metric for existing and potential future holders of our class A common stock as historically, over time, Distributable Earnings has been a strong indicator of our dividends per share. As a REIT, we generally must distribute annually at least 90% of our net taxable income, subject to certain adjustments, and therefore we believe our dividends are one of the principal reasons stockholders may invest in our class A common stock. Refer to Note 16 to our consolidated financial statements for further discussion of our distribution requirements as a REIT. Further, Distributable Earnings helps 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, and is a performance metric we consider when declaring our dividends.
Furthermore, we believe it is useful to present Distributable Earnings prior to charge-offs of CECL reserves to reflect our direct operating results and help existing and potential future holders of our class A common stock assess the performance
48


of our business excluding such charge-offs. We utilize Distributable Earnings prior to charge-offs of CECL reserves as an additional performance metric to consider when declaring our dividends. Distributable Earnings mirrors the terms of our Management Agreement for purposes of calculating our incentive fee expense. Therefore, Distributable Earnings prior to charge-offs of CECL reserves is calculated net of the incentive fee expense that would have been recognized if such charge-offs had not occurred.
Distributable Earnings and Distributable Earnings prior to charge-offs of CECL reserves do not represent net income (loss) or cash generated from operating activities and should not be considered as alternatives to GAAP net income (loss), or indicators of our GAAP cash flows from operations, measures of our liquidity, or indicators of funds available for our cash needs. In addition, our methodology for calculating Distributable Earnings and Distributable Earnings prior to charge-offs of CECL reserves may differ from the methodologies employed by other companies to calculate the same or similar supplemental performance measures, and accordingly, our reported Distributable Earnings and Distributable Earnings prior to charge-offs of CECL reserves may not be comparable to similar metrics reported by other companies.

(1)Total loan exposure reflects our aggregate exposure to each loan investment. As of March 31, 2024, total loan exposure, includes (i) loans with an outstanding principal balance of $23.3 billion that are included in our consolidated financial statements, (ii) $742.6 million of non-consolidated senior interests in loans we have sold, which are not included in our consolidated financial statements, and excludes (iii) $100.5 million of junior loan interests that we have sold, but that remain included in our consolidated financial statements. We have retained an aggregate $185.3 million of subordinate mezzanine loans, as of March 31, 2024, related to non-consolidated senior interests that are included in our balance sheet portfolio.
(2)Unfunded commitments will primarily be funded to finance our borrowers’ construction or development of real estate-related assets, capital improvements of existing assets, or lease-related expenditures. These commitments will generally be funded over the term of each loan, subject in certain cases to an expiration date. Excludes $332.0 million of unfunded loan commitments related to our non-consolidated senior interests, as these commitments will not require cash outlays from us.
(3)The weighted-average cash coupon and all-in yield are expressed as a spread over the relevant floating benchmark rates, which include SOFR, SONIA, EURIBOR, and other indices as applicable to each investment. As of March 31, 2024, substantially all of our loans by total loan exposure earned a floating rate of interest, primarily indexed to SOFR. Floating rate exposure includes an interest rate swap we entered into with a notional amount of $229.9 million that effectively converts certain of our fixed rate loan exposure to floating rate exposure. In addition to cash coupon, all-in yield includes the amortization of deferred origination and extension fees, loan origination costs, and purchase discounts, as well as the accrual of exit fees. Excludes loans accounted for under the cost-recovery method.
(4)Maximum maturity assumes all extension options are exercised by the borrower, however our loans and other investments may be repaid prior to such date. As of March 31, 2024, 13% of our loans by total loan exposure were subject to yield maintenance or other prepayment restrictions and 87% were open to repayment by the borrower without penalty.
(5)Based on LTV as of the dates loans were originated or acquired by us, excluding any loans that are impaired and any junior participations sold.

(1)Net loan exposure reflects the amount of each loan that is subject to risk of credit loss to us as of March 31, 2024, which is our total loan exposure net of (i) $742.6 million of non-consolidated senior interests, (ii) $1.1 billion of asset-specific debt, (iii) $234.8 million of senior loan participations sold, (iv) $57.9 million of cost-recovery proceeds, and (v) our total loans receivable CECL reserve of $751.4 million. Our non-consolidated senior interests, asset-specific debt, and loan participations sold are structurally non-recourse and term-matched to the corresponding collateral loans.
(2)Assets with multiple components are proportioned into the relevant collateral types based on the allocated value of each collateral type.
Refer to section VI of this Item 2 for details of our loan portfolio, on a loan-by-loan basis.
Portfolio Management
As of March 31, 2024, 99.0% of borrowers, based on net loan exposure, were compliant with the contractual terms of each respective loan. We believe this demonstrates the overall strength of our loan portfolio and the commitment and financial wherewithal of our borrowers generally, which are primarily affiliated with large real estate private equity funds and other strong, well-capitalized, and experienced sponsors. As of March 31, 2024, one of our impaired loans with an amortized cost basis of $138.8 million was past its current maturity date. This loan was also more than 90 days past due on its interest payment and had a risk rating of “5.” Additionally, as of March 31, 2024, one other impaired loan with an amortized cost basis of $223.4 million was less than 30 days past due on its interest payment and had a risk rating of “5.”
We maintain a robust asset management relationship with our borrowers and utilize these relationships to maximize the performance of our portfolio, including during periods of volatility. We believe that we benefit from these relationships and from our long-standing core business model of originating senior loans collateralized by large assets in major markets with experienced, well-capitalized institutional sponsors. Our loan portfolio’s low weighted-average origination LTV is 63.4%,
54


excluding any loans that are impaired and any junior participations sold, as of March 31, 2024. While we believe the principal amounts of our loans are generally adequately protected by underlying collateral value, there is a risk that we will not realize the entire principal value of certain investments. As of March 31, 2024, we had an aggregate $602.6 million asset-specific CECL reserve related to 17 of our loans receivable, with an aggregate amortized cost basis of $2.4 billion, net of cost-recovery proceeds. This CECL reserve was recorded based on our estimation of the fair value of each of the loan's underlying collateral as of March 31, 2024.
Our portfolio monitoring and asset management operations benefit from the deep knowledge, experience, and information advantages derived from our position as part of Blackstone’s real estate platform. Blackstone has built the world's preeminent global real estate business, with a proven track record of successfully navigating market cycles and emerging stronger through periods of volatility. The market-leading real estate expertise derived from the strength of the Blackstone platform deeply informs our credit and underwriting process, and gives us the tools to expertly asset manage our portfolio and work with our borrowers throughout periods of economic stress and uncertainty.
As discussed in Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements, we perform a quarterly review of our loan portfolio, assesses the performance of each loan, and assigns it a risk rating between “1” and “5”, from less risk to greater risk. Our loan portfolio had a weighted-average risk rating of 3.0 as of both March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.

Our non-consolidated senior interests, asset-specific debt, and loan participations sold are structurally non-recourse and term-matched to the corresponding collateral loans.
Current Expected Credit Loss Reserve
The CECL reserves required by GAAP reflect our current estimate of potential credit losses related to our loans and notes receivable included in our consolidated balance sheets. Other than a few narrow exceptions, GAAP requires that all financial instruments subject to the CECL model have some amount of loss reserve to reflect the principle underlying the CECL model that all loans and similar assets have some inherent risk of loss, regardless of credit quality, subordinate capital, or other mitigating factors.
During the three months ended March 31, 2024, we recorded an increase of $235.4 million in the CECL reserves against our loans receivable portfolio, primarily related to seven new impaired loans, offset by charge-offs of our CECL reserves of $61.0 million, bringing our total loans receivable CECL reserve to $751.4 million as of March 31, 2024. These charge-offs related to three previously impaired loans that were resolved during the three months ended March 31, 2024. The

resolutions were the result of (i) a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure related to an office asset in Mountain View, CA, which is now included on our consolidated balance sheet as an REO asset, (ii) the sale of an office asset in Miami, FL to a new borrower, resulting in a repayment of $9.5 million and a reduction to the outstanding principal balance of the loan, and (iii) a repayment of a multifamily asset in New York, NY. As of March 31, 2024, the income accrual was suspended on the seven additional loans that were impaired as the recovery of income and principal was doubtful. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, we recorded $16.8 million of interest income on these seven loans.
As of March 31, 2024, we had an aggregate $602.6 million asset-specific CECL reserve related to 17 of our loans receivable, with an aggregate amortized cost basis of $2.4 billion, net of cost-recovery proceeds. This CECL reserve was recorded based on our estimation of the fair value of each of the loan's underlying collateral as of March 31, 2024. No income was recorded on our impaired loans subsequent to determining that they were impaired. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, we received an aggregate $16.8 million of cash proceeds from such loans that were applied as a reduction to the amortized cost basis of each respective loan.
As of March 31, 2024, one of our impaired loans with an amortized cost basis of $138.8 million was past its current maturity date. This loan was also more than 90 days past due on its interest payment and had a risk rating of “5.”. Additionally, as of March 31, 2024, one other impaired loan with an amortized cost basis of $223.4 million was less than 30 days past due on its interest payment and had a risk rating of “5.” As of March 31, 2024, all other borrowers were compliant with the contractual terms of each respective loan, including any required payment of interest. Refer to Note 2 for further discussion of our policies on revenue recognition and our CECL reserves.
Multifamily Joint Venture
As of March 31, 2024, our multifamily joint venture held $614.4 million of loans, which are included in the loan disclosures above. Refer to Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements for additional discussion of our multifamily joint venture.

The cumulative dividend threshold has not been exceeded as of March 31, 2024.
During the three months ended March 31, 2024, we repurchased an aggregate principal amount of $26.2 million of the Senior Secured Notes at a weighted-average price of 88%. This resulted in a gain on extinguishment of debt of $3.0 million during the three months ended March 31, 2024.
Refer to Note 2, Note 10, Note 11, and Note 12 to our consolidated financial statements for additional discussion of our Term Loans, Senior Secured Notes, and Convertible Notes.
Floating Rate Portfolio
Generally, our business model is such that rising interest rates will increase our net income, while declining interest rates will decrease net income. As of March 31, 2024, substantially all of our loans by total loan exposure earned a floating rate of interest and were financed with liabilities that pay interest at floating rates, which resulted in an amount of net equity that is positively correlated to rising interest rates, subject to the impact of interest rate floors on certain of our floating rate loans.
Our liabilities are generally currency and index-matched to each collateral asset, resulting in a net exposure to movements in benchmark rates that varies by currency silo based on the relative proportion of floating rate assets and liabilities.

(4)Excludes $2.4 billion of floating rate impaired loans.
(5)Excludes $742.6 million of non-consolidated senior interests and $335.3 million of loan participations sold, as of March 31, 2024. Our non-consolidated senior interests and loan participations sold are structurally non-recourse and term-matched to the corresponding loans, and have no impact on our net floating rate exposure.
(6)Our loan agreements generally require our borrowers to purchase interest rate caps, which mitigates our borrowers’ exposure to an increase in interest rates.
(7)Includes amounts outstanding under secured debt, securitizations, asset-specific debt, and Term Loans.
(8)Represents the U.S. dollar equivalent as of March 31, 2024.

In addition to the risks related to fluctuations in cash flows and asset values associated with movements in interest rates, there is also the risk of non-performance on floating rate assets. In the case of a significant increase in interest rates, the cash flows of the collateral real estate assets may not be sufficient to pay debt service due under our loans, which may contribute to non-performance or, in severe cases, default. This risk is partially mitigated by our consideration of rising rate stress-testing during our underwriting process, which generally includes a requirement for our borrower to purchase an interest rate cap contract with an unaffiliated third party, provide an interest reserve deposit, and/or provide interest guarantees or other structural protections. As of March 31, 2024, 95% of our performing loans have interest rate caps, with a weighted-average strike price of 3.4%, or interest guarantees. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, interest rate caps on $4.2 billion of loans, with a 3.3% weighted-average strike price, expired and 95% were replaced with new interest rate caps, with a weighted-average strike price of 4.2%, or interest guarantees.

Income from loans and other investments, net
Income from loans and other investments, net decreased $11.4 million during the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to the three months ended December 31, 2023. The decrease was primarily due to a decline in interest income related to additional loans accounted for under the cost-recovery method during the three months ended March 31, 2024. This was offset by a decrease in the weighted-average principal balance of our outstanding financing arrangements by $144.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to the three months ended December 31, 2023.
Other expenses
Other expenses include management and incentive fees payable to our Manager and general and administrative expenses. Other expenses decreased by $6.9 million during the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to the three months ended December 31, 2023 primarily due to a decrease of $7.5 million of incentive fees payable to our Manager, due to a decrease in Distributable Earnings, driven primarily by charge-offs of CECL reserves. This was offset by an increase of $353,000 of non-cash restricted stock amortization related to shares awarded under our long-term incentive plans.
Changes in current expected credit loss reserve
During the three months ended March 31, 2024, we recorded a $234.9 million increase in our CECL reserves, as compared to a $115.3 million increase during the three months ended December 31, 2023. These CECL reserves primarily reflect certain impaired loans in our portfolio.
62


Gain on extinguishment of debt
During the three months ended March 31, 2024, we recognized a gain on extinguishment of debt of $3.0 million related to the repurchase of an aggregate principal amount of $26.2 million of our Senior Secured Notes. During the three months ended December 31, 2023 we recognized a gain on extinguishment of $75,000 related to the repurchase of an aggregate principal amount of $500,000 of our Senior Secured Notes.
Income tax provision
The income tax provision increased by $304,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to the three months ended December 31, 2023 primarily due to an increase in the income tax provisions related to our taxable REIT subsidiaries.
Dividends per share
During the three months ended March 31, 2024, we declared dividends of $0.62 per share, or $107.7 million in aggregate. During the three months ended December 31, 2023, we declared dividends of $0.62 per share, or $107.4 million in aggregate.

Income from loans and other investments, net
Income from loans and other investments, net decreased $31.8 million during the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2023. The decrease was primarily due to (i) a decline in interest income related to additional loans accounted for under the cost-recovery method for the three months ended March 31, 2024, and
63


(ii) a decrease in the weighted-average principal balance of our loan portfolio by $1.6 billion for the three months ended March 31, 2024, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2023. This was offset by a decrease in the weighted-average principal balance of our outstanding financing arrangements by $1.7 billion for the three months ended March 31, 2024, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2023.
Other expenses
Other expenses include management and incentive fees payable to our Manager and general and administrative expenses. Other expenses decreased by $11.3 million during the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2023 due to a decrease of $12.5 million of incentive fees payable to our Manager, due to a decrease in Distributable Earnings, driven primarily by charge-offs of CECL reserves. This was offset by (i) an increase in non-cash restricted stock amortization of $419,000 related to shares awarded under our long-term incentive plans, (ii) a $406,000 increase of other operating expenses, and (iii) an increase of $374,000 of management fees payable to our Manager, primarily as a result of an increase in our Equity, as defined in our Management Agreement.
Changes in current expected credit loss reserve
During the three months ended March 31, 2024, we recorded a $234.9 million increase in our CECL reserves, as compared to a $9.8 million increase during the three months ended March 31, 2023. These CECL reserves primarily reflect certain impaired loans in our portfolio.
Gain on extinguishment of debt

There was no repurchase activity or gain on extinguishment of debt in the three months ended March 31, 2023.
Income tax provision
The income tax provision decreased by $891,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2024 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2023, due to decreased activity in our taxable REIT subsidiaries.
Dividends per share
During the three months ended March 31, 2024, we declared dividends of $0.62 per share, or $107.7 million in aggregate. During three months ended March 31, 2023, we declared dividends of 0.62 per share, or $106.8 million in aggregate.
IV. Liquidity and Capital Resources
Capitalization
We have capitalized our business to date primarily through the issuance and sale of shares of our class A common stock, corporate debt, and asset-level financings. As of March 31, 2024, our capitalization structure included $4.1 billion of common equity, $2.8 billion of corporate debt, and $15.8 billion of asset-level financings. Our $2.8 billion of corporate debt includes $2.1 billion of Term Loan borrowings, $339.9 million of Senior Secured Notes, and $300.0 million of Convertible Notes. Our $15.8 billion of asset-level financings includes $12.4 billion of secured debt, $2.3 billion of securitizations, and $1.1 billion of asset-specific debt, all of which are structured to produce term, currency, and index matched funding with no margin call provisions based upon capital markets events.
As of March 31, 2024, we have $1.7 billion of liquidity that can be used to satisfy our short-term cash requirements and as working capital for our business.
See Notes 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, and 12 to our consolidated financial statements for additional details regarding our secured debt, securitized debt obligations, asset-specific debt, loan participations sold, Term Loans, Senior Secured Notes, and Convertible Notes, respectively.

Refer to “Adjusted Debt-to-Equity Ratio and Adjusted Total Leverage Ratio” below for the definition of Adjusted Equity and a reconciliation to total equity.
Adjusted Debt-to-Equity Ratio and Adjusted Total Leverage Ratio
Our adjusted debt-to-equity and total leverage ratios are measures that are not prepared in accordance with GAAP, as they are calculated using Adjusted Equity, which we define as our total equity, excluding the aggregate CECL reserves on our loans receivable and unfunded loan commitments.
We believe that Adjusted Equity provides meaningful information to consider in addition to our total equity determined in accordance with GAAP in the context of assessing our debt-to-equity and total leverage ratios. The adjusted debt-to-equity and total leverage ratios are metrics we use, in addition to our unadjusted debt-to-equity and total leverage ratios, when evaluating our capitalization structure, as Adjusted Equity excludes the unrealized impact of our CECL reserves, which may vary from quarter-to-quarter as our loan portfolio changes and market and economic conditions evolve. We believe these ratios, and therefore our Adjusted Equity, are useful financial metrics for existing and potential future holders of our class A common stock to consider when evaluating how our business is capitalized and the relative amount of leverage in our business.
Adjusted Equity does not represent our total equity and should not be considered as an alternate to GAAP total equity. In addition, our methodology for calculating Adjusted Equity may differ from methodologies employed by other companies to calculate the same or similar supplemental measures, and accordingly, our reported Adjusted Equity may not be comparable to the Adjusted Equity reported by other companies.

(1)Represents loan principal payments held by our third-party servicer as of the balance sheet date which were remitted to us during the subsequent remittance cycle, net of the related secured debt balance.
During the three months ended March 31, 2024, we generated cash flow from operating activities of $94.6 million and received $637.2 million from loan principal collections, sales proceeds, and cost-recovery proceeds. Furthermore, we are able to generate incremental liquidity through the replenishment provisions of certain of our CLOs, which allow us to replace a repaid loan in the CLO by increasing the principal amount of existing CLO collateral assets to maintain the aggregate amount of collateral assets in the CLO, and the related financing outstanding.
We have access to further liquidity through public and private offerings of equity and debt securities, syndicated term loans, and similar transactions. To facilitate public offerings, in July 2022, we filed a shelf registration statement with the SEC that is effective for a term of three years and expires in July 2025. The amount of securities to be issued pursuant to this shelf registration statement was not specified when it was filed and there is no specific dollar limit on the amount of securities we may issue. The securities covered by this registration statement include: (i) class A common stock; (ii) preferred stock; (iii) depositary shares representing preferred stock; (iv) debt securities; (v) warrants; (vi) subscription rights; (vii) purchase contracts; and (viii) units consisting of one or more of such securities or any combination of these securities. The specifics of any future offerings, along with the use of proceeds of any securities offered, will be described in detail in a prospectus supplement, or other offering materials, at the time of any offering.
We may also access liquidity through our dividend reinvestment plan and direct stock purchase plan, under which 9,973,525 shares of class A common stock were available for issuance as of March 31, 2024, and our at the market stock offering program, pursuant to which we may sell, from time to time, up to $480.9 million of additional shares of our class A common stock as of March 31, 2024. Refer to Note 14 to our consolidated financial statements for additional details.
Liquidity Needs
In addition to our loan origination and funding activity and general operating expenses, our primary liquidity needs include interest and principal payments under our $12.4 billion of outstanding borrowings under secured debt, our asset-specific debt, our Term Loans, our Senior Secured Notes, and our Convertible Notes. From time to time we may also repurchase our outstanding debt or shares of our class A common stock. Such repurchases, if any, will depend on prevailing market conditions, our liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions, and other factors. The amounts involved in any such purchase transactions, individually or in the aggregate, may be material. During the three months ended March 31, 2024 we repurchased an aggregate principal amount of $26.2 million of the Senior Secured Notes at a weighted-average price of 88%. This resulted in a gain on extinguishment of debt of $3.0 million during the three months ended March 31, 2024.
As of March 31, 2024, we had unfunded commitments of $2.1 billion related to 90 loans receivable and $1.0 billion of committed or identified financing for those commitments resulting in net unfunded commitments of $1.0 billion. The unfunded loan commitments comprise funding for capital expenditures and construction, leasing costs, and interest and carry costs. Loan funding commitments are generally subject to certain conditions, including, without limitation, the progress of capital projects, leasing, and cash flows at the properties securing our loans. Therefore, the exact timing and amounts of such future loan fundings are uncertain and will depend on the current and future performance of the underlying collateral assets. We expect to fund our loan commitments over the remaining term of the related loans, which have a weighted-average future funding period of 2.2 years.

(1)Represents known and estimated short-term cash requirements related to our contractual obligations and commitments. Refer to the sources of liquidity section above for our sources of funds to satisfy our short-term cash requirements.
(2)The allocation of our unfunded loan commitments is based on the earlier of the commitment expiration date or the final loan maturity date, however we may be obligated to fund these commitments earlier than such date.
(3)Our secured debt and asset-specific debt agreements are generally term-matched to their underlying collateral. Therefore, the allocation of both principal and interest payments under such agreements is generally allocated based on the maximum maturity date of the collateral loans, assuming all extension options are exercised by the borrower. In limited instances, the maturity date of the respective debt agreement is used.
(4)The Term Loans are partially amortizing, with an amount equal to 1.0% per annum of the initial principal balance due in quarterly installments. Refer to Note 10 to our consolidated financial statements for further details on our Term Loans.
(5)Reflects the outstanding principal balance of convertible notes, excluding any potential conversion premium. Refer to Note 12 to our consolidated financial statements for further details on our convertible notes.
(6)Represents interest payments on our secured debt, asset-specific debt, Term Loans, Senior Secured Notes, and convertible notes. Future interest payment obligations are estimated assuming the interest rates in effect as of March 31, 2024 will remain constant into the future. This is only an estimate as actual amounts borrowed and interest rates will vary over time.
(7)Total does not include $2.3 billion of consolidated securitized debt obligations, $742.6 million of non-consolidated senior interests, and $335.3 million of loan participations sold, as the satisfaction of these liabilities will not require cash outlays from us.
We are also required to settle our foreign exchange and interest rate derivatives with our derivative counterparties upon maturity which, depending on foreign currency exchange and interest rate movements, may result in cash received from or due to such counterparties. The table above does not include these amounts as they are not fixed and determinable. Refer to Note 13 to our consolidated financial statements for details regarding our derivative contracts.
We are required to pay our Manager a base management fee, an incentive fee, and reimbursements for certain expenses pursuant to our Management Agreement. The table above does not include the amounts payable to our Manager under our Management Agreement as they are not fixed and determinable. Refer to Note 15 to our consolidated financial statements for additional terms and details of the fees payable under our Management Agreement.
As a REIT, we generally must distribute substantially all of our net taxable income to stockholders in the form of dividends to comply with the REIT provisions of the Internal Revenue Code. Our taxable income does not necessarily equal our net income as calculated in accordance with GAAP, or our Distributable Earnings as described above.

We experienced a net increase in cash and cash equivalents of $66.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, compared to a net increase of $223.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, we received $1.0 billion from loan principal collections and sales proceeds, of which $637.2 million is reflected in our consolidated statement of cash flows prepared in accordance with GAAP, excluding (i) $454.8 million of additional repayments or reduction of loan exposure under related non-consolidated senior interests and (ii) $114.2 million of loan portfolio payments held by servicer. Also, during the three months ended March 31, 2024, we (i) funded $301.7 million of loans, (ii) repaid $178.1 million of securitized debt obligations, (iii) repaid a net $141.9 million of secured debt borrowings, and (iv) paid $107.4 million of dividends on our class A common stock.
Refer to Note 3 to our consolidated financial statements for further discussion of our loan activity. Refer to Notes 6, 7, and 14 to our consolidated financial statements for additional discussion of our secured debt, securitized debt obligations, and equity, respectively.
V. Other Items
Income Taxes
We have elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code for U.S. federal income tax purposes. We generally must distribute annually at least 90% of our net taxable income, subject to certain adjustments and excluding any net capital gain, in order for U.S. federal income tax not to apply to our earnings. To the extent that we satisfy this distribution requirement, but distribute less than 100% of our net taxable income, we will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on our undistributed taxable income. In addition, we will be subject to a 4% nondeductible excise tax if the actual amount that we pay out to our stockholders in a calendar year is less than a minimum amount specified under U.S. federal tax laws.
Our qualification as a REIT also depends on our ability to meet various other requirements imposed by the Internal Revenue Code, which relate to organizational structure, diversity of stock ownership, and certain restrictions with regard to the nature of our assets and the sources of our income. Even if we qualify as a REIT, we may be subject to certain U.S. federal income and excise taxes and state and local taxes on our income and assets. If we fail to maintain our qualification as a REIT for any taxable year, we may be subject to material penalties as well as federal, state, and local income tax on our taxable income at regular corporate rates and we would not be able to qualify as a REIT for the subsequent four full taxable years. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we were in compliance with all REIT requirements.
Furthermore, our taxable REIT subsidiaries are subject to federal, state, and local income tax on their net taxable income. Refer to Note 16 to our consolidated financial statements for additional discussion of our income taxes.
Critical Accounting Policies
Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon our consolidated financial
statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. There have been no material changes to our Critical Accounting Policies described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 14, 2024, other than a supplement to the accounting policy for our real estate owned. Refer to Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements for additional discussion of the accounting policy for our real estate owned.

Current Expected Credit Losses
The current expected credit loss, or CECL, reserve required under the FASB Accounting Standards Codification, or ASC, Topic 326 “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses,” or ASC 326, reflects our current estimate of potential credit losses related to our portfolio. We estimate our CECL reserves primarily using the Weighted-Average Remaining Maturity, or WARM method, which has been identified as an acceptable loss-rate method for estimating CECL reserves in the Financial Accounting Standards Board Staff Q&A Topic 326, No. 1. Estimating the CECL reserve requires judgment, including the following assumptions:
Historical loan loss reference data: To estimate the historic loan losses relevant to our portfolio, we have augmented our historical loan performance with market loan loss data licensed from Trepp LLC. This database includes commercial mortgage-backed securities, or CMBS, issued since January 1, 1999 through February 29, 2024. Within this database, we focused our historical loss reference calculations on the most relevant subset of available CMBS data, which we determined based on loan metrics that are most comparable to our loan portfolio including asset type, geography, and origination loan-to-value, or LTV. We believe this CMBS data, which includes month-over-month loan and property performance, is the most relevant, available, and comparable dataset to our portfolio.
Expected timing and amount of future loan fundings and repayments: Expected credit losses are estimated over the contractual term of each loan, adjusted for expected repayments. As part of our quarterly review of our loan portfolio, we assess the expected repayment date of each loan, which is used to determine the contractual term for purposes of computing our CECL reserves. Additionally, the expected credit losses over the contractual period of our loans are subject to the obligation to extend credit through our unfunded loan commitments. The CECL reserve for unfunded loan commitments is adjusted quarterly, as we consider the expected timing of future funding obligations over the estimated life of the loan. The considerations in estimating our CECL reserve for unfunded loan commitments are similar to those used for the related outstanding loans receivable.
Current credit quality of our portfolio: Our risk rating is our primary credit quality indicator in assessing our CECL reserves. We perform a quarterly risk review of our portfolio of loans and assign each loan a risk rating based on a variety of factors, including, without limitation, origination LTV, debt yield, property type, geographic and local market dynamics, physical condition, cash flow volatility, leasing and tenant profile, loan structure and exit plan, and project sponsorship.
Expectations of performance and market conditions: Our CECL reserves are adjusted to reflect our estimation of the current and future economic conditions that impact the performance of the commercial real estate assets securing our loans. These estimations include unemployment rates, interest rates, expectations of inflation and/or recession, and other macroeconomic factors impacting the likelihood and magnitude of potential credit losses for our loans during their anticipated term. In addition to the CMBS data we have licensed from Trepp LLC, we have also licensed certain macroeconomic financial forecasts to inform our view of the potential future impact that broader economic conditions may have on our loan portfolio’s performance. We generally also incorporate information from other sources, including information and opinions available to our Manager, to further inform these estimations. This process requires significant judgments about future events that, while based on the information available to us as of the balance sheet date, are ultimately indeterminate and the actual economic condition impacting our portfolio could vary significantly from the estimates we made as of March 31, 2024.
Impairment: impairment is indicated when it is deemed probable that we will not be able to collect all amounts due to us pursuant to the contractual terms of the loan. Determining that a loan is impaired requires significant judgment from management and is based on several factors including (i) the underlying collateral performance, (ii) discussions with the borrower, (iii) borrower events of default, and (iv) other facts that impact the borrower’s ability to pay the contractual amounts due under the terms of the loan. If a loan is determined to be impaired, we record the impairment as a component of our CECL reserves by applying the practical expedient for collateral dependent loans. The CECL reserves are assessed on an individual basis for these loans by comparing the estimated fair value of the underlying collateral, less costs to sell, to the book value of the respective loan. These valuations require significant judgments, which include assumptions regarding capitalization rates, discount rates, leasing, creditworthiness of major tenants, occupancy rates, availability and cost of financing, exit plan, loan sponsorship, actions of other lenders, and other factors deemed relevant by us. Actual losses, if any, could ultimately differ materially from these estimates. We only expect to charge-off the impairment losses in our consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP if and when such amounts are deemed non-recoverable. This is generally at the time a loan is repaid or foreclosed. However, non-recoverability may also be concluded if, in our determination, it is nearly certain that all amounts due will not be collected.
These assumptions vary from quarter-to-quarter as our loan portfolio changes and market and economic conditions evolve. The sensitivity of each assumption and its impact on the CECL reserves may change over time and from period to period.
69


During the three months ended March 31, 2024, we recorded an aggregate $173.9 million increase in our CECL reserves, bringing our total reserves to $766.2 million as of March 31, 2024. See Notes 2 and 3 to our consolidated financial statements for further discussion of our CECL reserves.

Revenue Recognition
Interest income from our loans receivable portfolio is recognized over the life of each investment using the effective interest method and is recorded on the accrual basis. Recognition of fees, premiums, and discounts associated with these investments is deferred and recorded over the term of the loan as an adjustment to yield. Income accrual is generally suspended for loans at the earlier of the date at which payments become 90 days past due or when, in our opinion, recovery of income and principal becomes doubtful. Interest received is then recorded as income or as a reduction in the amortized cost basis, based on the specific facts and circumstances, until accrual is resumed when the loan becomes contractually current and performance is demonstrated to be resumed. In addition, for loans we originate, the related origination expenses are deferred and recognized as a reduction to interest income, however expenses related to loans we acquire are included in general and administrative expenses as incurred.

Real Estate Owned
We may assume legal title or physical possession of the collateral underlying a loan through a foreclosure or the execution of a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure. These real estate acquisitions are classified as real estate owned, or REO, on our consolidated balance sheet and are initially recognized at fair value on the acquisition date in accordance with the ASC Topic 805, “Business Combinations.”
Upon acquisition of REO, we assess the fair value of acquired tangible and intangible assets, which may include land, buildings, tenant improvements, “above-market” and “below-market” leases, acquired in-place leases, other identified intangible assets and assumed liabilities, as applicable, and allocate the fair value to the acquired assets and assumed liabilities. We assess and consider fair value based on estimated cash flow projections that utilize discount and/or capitalization rates that we deem appropriate, as well as other available market information. Estimates of future cash flows are based on a number of factors including the historical operating results, known and anticipated trends, and market and economic conditions. We capitalize acquisition-related costs associated with asset acquisitions.
Real estate assets held for investment, except for land, are depreciated using the straight-line method over the assets’ estimated useful lives of up to 40 years for buildings and 10 years for tenant improvements. Renovations and/or replacements that improve or extend the life of the asset are capitalized and depreciated over their estimated useful lives. The cost of ordinary repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred.
Real estate assets held for investment are assessed for impairment on a quarterly basis. If the depreciated cost basis of the asset exceeds the undiscounted cash flows, the asset is considered impaired and the depreciated cost basis is reduced to the fair value. The impairment loss is recognized based on the excess of the carrying amount of the asset over its fair value. The evaluation of anticipated future cash flows is highly subjective and is based in part on assumptions regarding future occupancy, rental rates, capital requirements and anticipated holding periods that could differ materially from actual results.
Real estate assets are classified as held for sale in the period when they meet the criteria under ASC Topic 360 “Property, Plant, and Equipment.” Once a real estate asset is classified as held for sale, depreciation is suspended and the asset is reported at the lower of its carrying value or fair value less cost to sell.
As of March 31, 2024, we had one REO asset which was vacant and classified as held for investment.

(1)Senior loans include senior mortgages and similar credit quality loans, including related contiguous subordinate loans and pari passu participations in senior mortgage loans.
(2)Date loan was originated or acquired by us, and the LTV as of such date, excluding any loans that are impaired and any junior participations sold. Origination dates are subsequently updated to reflect material loan modifications.
(3)Total loan amount reflects outstanding principal balance as well as any related unfunded loan commitment.
(4)Total loan exposure reflects our aggregate exposure to each loan investment. As of March 31, 2024, total loan exposure, includes (i) loans with an outstanding principal balance of $23.3 billion that are included in our consolidated financial statements, (ii) $742.6 million of non-consolidated senior interests in loans we have sold, which are not included in our consolidated financial statements, and excludes (iii) $100.5 million of junior loan interests that we have sold, but that remain included in our consolidated financial statements.
(5)The weighted-average cash coupon and all-in yield are expressed as a spread over the relevant floating benchmark rates, which include SOFR, SONIA, EURIBOR, and other indices as applicable to each loan. As of March 31, 2024, substantially all of our loans by total loan exposure earned a floating rate of interest, primarily indexed to SOFR. In addition to cash coupon, all-in yield includes the amortization of deferred origination and extension fees, loan origination costs, and purchase discounts, as well as the accrual of exit fees. Excludes loans accounted for under the cost-recovery method.
(6)Maximum maturity assumes all extension options are exercised, however our loans may be repaid prior to such date.
(7)This loan earns interest at a fixed rate. Cash coupon and all-in yield are expressed as a floating rate to include an interest rate swap we entered into that effectively converts the loan to a floating rate exposure.
(8)This loan has an interest rate of SOFR minus 1.30% with a SOFR floor of 3.50%, for an all-in rate of 4.03% as of March 31, 2024.
(9)Loan consists of one or more floating and fixed rate tranches. The fixed rate tranche is reflected as a spread over the relevant floating benchmark rate for both coupon and all-in yield.

Risk Factors—Risks Related to Our Lending and Investment Activities—The transition away from reference rates and the use of alternative replacement reference rates may adversely affect net interest income related to our loans and investments or otherwise adversely affect our results of operations, cash flows and the market value of our investments.” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 14, 2024.
Investment Portfolio Net Interest Income
Generally, our business model is such that rising interest rates will increase our net income, while declining interest rates will decrease net income. As of March 31, 2024, substantially all of our loans by total loan exposure earned a floating rate of interest and were financed with liabilities that pay interest at floating rates, which resulted in an amount of net equity that is positively correlated to rising interest rates, subject to the impact of interest rate floors on certain of our floating rate loans.
The following table projects the earnings impact on our interest income and expense, presented net of implied changes in incentive fees, for the twelve-month period following March 31, 2024, of an increase in the various floating-rate indices referenced by our portfolio, assuming no change in credit spreads, portfolio composition, or asset performance, relative to the average indices during the three months ended March 31, 2024 ($ in thousands):

(6)Excludes $742.6 million of non-consolidated senior interests and $335.3 million of loan participations sold, as of March 31, 2024. Our non-consolidated senior interests and loan participations sold are structurally non-recourse and term-matched to the corresponding loans, and have no impact on our net floating rate exposure.
(7)Our loan agreements generally require our borrowers to purchase interest rate caps, which mitigates our borrowers’ exposure to an increase in interest rates.
(8)Includes amounts outstanding under secured debt, securitizations, asset-specific debt, and Term Loans.
Investment Portfolio Value
As of March 31, 2024, substantially all of our portfolio earned a floating rate of interest, so the value of such investments is generally not impacted by changes in market interest rates. Additionally, we generally hold all of our loans to maturity and so do not expect to realize gains or losses resulting from any mark to market valuation adjustments on our loan portfolio.
Risk of Non-Performance
In addition to the risks related to fluctuations in cash flows and asset values associated with movements in interest rates, there is also the risk of non-performance on floating rate assets. In the case of a significant increase in interest rates, the cash flows of the collateral real estate assets may not be sufficient to pay debt service due under our loans, which may contribute to non-performance or, in severe cases, default. This risk is partially mitigated by our consideration of rising rate stress-testing during our underwriting process, which generally includes a requirement for our borrower to purchase an interest rate cap contract with an unaffiliated third party, provide an interest reserve deposit, and/or provide interest
77


guarantees or other structural protections. As of March 31, 2024, 95% of our performing loans have interest rate caps, with a weighted-average strike price of 3.4%, or interest guarantees. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, interest rate caps on $4.2 billion of loans, with a 3.3% weighted-average strike price, expired and 95% were replaced with new interest rate caps, with a weighted-average strike price of 4.2%, or interest guarantees.
Credit Risks
Our loans are also subject to credit risk, including the risk of default. The performance and value of our loans depend upon the sponsors’ ability to operate the properties that serve as our collateral so that they produce cash flows adequate to pay interest and principal due to us. To monitor this risk, our asset management team reviews our loan portfolios and, in certain instances, is in regular contact with our borrowers, monitoring performance of the collateral and enforcing our rights as necessary.
In addition, we are exposed to the risks generally associated with the commercial real estate market, including changes in occupancy rates, capitalization rates, absorption rates, and other macroeconomic factors beyond our control. We seek to manage these risks through our underwriting and asset management processes.
We maintain a robust asset management relationship with our borrowers and utilize these relationships to maximize the performance of our portfolio, including during periods of volatility. We believe that we benefit from these relationships and from our long-standing core business model of originating senior loans collateralized by large assets in major markets with experienced, well-capitalized institutional sponsors. Our loan portfolio’s low weighted-average origination LTV was 63.4%, excluding any loans that are impaired and any junior participations sold, as of March 31, 2024. While we believe the principal amounts of our loans are generally adequately protected by underlying collateral value, there is a risk that we will not realize the entire principal value of certain loans. As of March 31, 2024, we had an aggregate $602.6 million asset-specific CECL reserve related to 17 of our loans receivable, with an aggregate amortized cost basis of $2.4 billion, net of cost-recovery proceeds. This CECL reserve was recorded based on our estimation of the fair value of each of the loan’s underlying collateral as of March 31, 2024.
Our portfolio monitoring and asset management operations benefit from the deep knowledge, experience, and information advantages derived from our position as part of Blackstone’s real estate platform. Blackstone has built the world's preeminent global real estate business, with a proven track record of successfully navigating market cycles and emerging stronger through periods of volatility. The market-leading real estate expertise derived from the strength of the Blackstone platform deeply informs our credit and underwriting process, and we believe gives us the tools to expertly asset manage our portfolio and work with our borrowers throughout periods of economic stress and uncertainty.
The three months ended March 31, 2024 have shown a mix of positive and challenging developments leading to continued volatility in global markets. Investor concerns over inflation, interest rates, slowing economic growth, political and regulatory uncertainty and geopolitical conditions have persisted. If inflation and other economic indicators do not meet central banks’ relevant expectations, interest rates could remain higher for longer than expected by market participants and observers, which could create further uncertainty for the economy and our borrowers.
Capital Market Risks
We are exposed to risks related to the equity capital markets, and our related ability to raise capital through the issuance of our class A common stock or other equity instruments. We are also exposed to risks related to the debt capital markets, and our related ability to finance our business through borrowings under credit facilities or other debt instruments. As a REIT, we are required to distribute a significant portion of our taxable income annually, which constrains our ability to accumulate operating cash flow and therefore requires us to utilize debt or equity capital to finance our business. We seek to mitigate these risks by monitoring the debt and equity capital markets to inform our decisions on the amount, timing, and terms of capital we raise.
Margin call provisions under our credit facilities do not permit valuation adjustments based on capital markets events, and are limited to collateral-specific credit marks generally determined on a commercially reasonable basis.
Counterparty Risk
The nature of our business requires us to hold our cash and cash equivalents and obtain financing from various financial institutions. This exposes us to the risk that these financial institutions may not fulfill their obligations to us under these
78


various contractual arrangements. We mitigate this exposure by depositing our cash and cash equivalents and entering into financing agreements with high credit-quality institutions.
The nature of our loans also exposes us to the risk that our counterparties do not make required interest and principal payments on scheduled due dates. We seek to manage this risk through a comprehensive credit analysis prior to making a loan and active monitoring of the asset portfolios that serve as our collateral, as further discussed above.
Currency Risk
Our loans that are denominated in a foreign currency are also subject to risks related to fluctuations in currency rates. We generally mitigate this exposure by matching the currency of our assets to the currency of the financing for our assets. As a result, we substantially reduce our exposure to changes in portfolio value related to changes in foreign currency rates. In addition, substantially all of our net asset exposure to foreign currencies has been hedged with foreign currency forward contracts as of March 31, 2024.
