The Company also manages entities focused on ground lease and net lease investments (refer to Note 7)8). The Company has invested approximatelyover $40 billion of capital over the past two decades and is structured as a real estate investment trust ("REIT") with a diversified portfolio focused on larger assets located in major metropolitan markets. The Company's primary reportable business segments are net lease, real estate finance, net lease, operating properties and land and development (refer to Note 17)18).


Organization—The Company began its business in 1993 through the management of private investment funds and became publicly traded in 1998. Since that time, the Company has grown through the origination of new investments and corporate acquisitions.


Note 2—Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation
Basis of Presentation—The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10-01 of Regulation S-X for interim financial statements. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("GAAP") for complete financial statements. These unaudited consolidated financial statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 20182019 (the "2018 Annual"Annual Report").
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
In the opinion of management, the accompanying consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods presented. Such operating results may not be indicative of the expected results for any other interim periods or the entire year. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified in the Company's consolidated financial statements and the related notes to conform to the current period presentation.
Principles of Consolidation—The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company, its wholly owned subsidiaries, controlled partnerships and VIEs for which the Company is the primary beneficiary. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company's involvement with VIEs affects its financial performance and cash flows primarily through amounts recorded in "Operating lease income," "Interest income," "Earnings from equity method investments," "Real estate expense" and "Interest expense" in the Company's consolidated statements of operations. The Company has provided no financial support to those VIEs that it was not previously contractually required to provide.

Unconsolidated VIEs—The Company has investments in VIEs where it is not the primary beneficiary and accordingly the VIEs have not been consolidated in the Company's consolidated financial statements. As of March 31, 2019,2020, the Company's maximum exposure to loss from these investments does not exceed the sum of the $70.4$123.8 million carrying value of the investments, which are classified in "Other investments" on the Company's consolidated balance sheets, and $30.8$14.7 million of related unfunded commitments.


Note 3—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies


The following paragraphs describeparagraph describes the impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements from the adoption of Accounting Standards Updates ("ASUs") on January 1, 2019.2020.


The Company adopted ASU 2016-02 and ASU 2018-11—Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2016-02, Leases2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments ("ASU 2016-02"2016-13") required, as amended, on January 1, 2020 using the recognition of right-of-use lease assets and lease liabilities bymodified retrospective approach method. Under the Company as lessee for those leases classified as operating or finance leases, both measured at the present value of the lease payments, on its consolidated balance sheets. For operating lease arrangements as of December 31, 2018 for which the Company was the lessee, primarily under leases of office space and certain ground leases, and a finance lease the Company entered into during the three months ended March 31, 2019,modified retrospective approach, the Company recorded operating lease right-of-use assetsa cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings by increasing its allowance for loan losses and recording an initial allowance for losses on net investment in leases. Periods presented that are prior to the adoption date of $31.6January 1, 2020 will not be adjusted. ASU 2016-13 replaced the incurred loss impairment methodology with a methodology that reflects a current expected credit loss ("Expected Loss"). ASU 2016-13 impacted all of the Company’s investments held at amortized cost, which included its loans (including unfunded loan commitments), financing receivables, net investment in leases and held-to-maturity debt securities.Upon adoption of ASU 2016-13 on January 1, 2020, the Company recorded an increase to its allowance for loan losses of $3.3 million and an initial allowance for losses on net investment in leases of $9.1 million, both of which were recorded as a finance lease right-of-use assetcumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings. Subsequent increases or decreases in the allowance for loan losses or the allowance for losses on net investment in leases will be charged to "Provision for (recovery of) loan losses" and "Provision for (recovery of) losses on net investment in leases," respectively, in the Company's consolidated statements of $68.1 million in "Deferred expenses and other assets, net" and operating lease liabilities of $31.6 million and a finance lease liability of $68.1 million in "Accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities"operations. Refer to "Significant Accounting Policies" below for more information on its consolidated balance sheets (refer to Significant Accounting Policies below). The accounting applied byhow the Company as a lessor is generally unchanged from that applied under previous GAAP.determines its allowance for loan losses and its allowance for losses on net investment in leases.


Management elected the practical expedient package that allowed the Company: (a) to not reassess whether any expired or existing contracts entered into prior to January 1, 2019 are or contain leases; (b) to not reassess the lease classification for any expired or existing leases entered into prior to January 1, 2019; and (c) to not reassess initial direct costs for any expired or existing leases entered into prior to January 1, 2019. In addition, the Company elected to not record on its consolidated balance sheets leases whose term is less than 12 months at lease inception.

Significant Accounting Policies

Allowance for Loan Losses and Net Investment in Leases— The Company performs quarterly a comprehensive analysis of its loan and sales-type lease portfolios and assigns risk ratings that incorporate management's current judgments about credit quality based on all known and relevant internal and external factors that may affect collectability. The Company considers, among other things, payment status, lien position, borrower or tenant financial resources and investment collateral, collateral type, project economics and geographical location as well as national and regional economic factors. This methodology results in loans and sales-type leases being risk rated, with ratings ranging from "1" to "5" with "1" representing the lowest risk of loss and "5" representing the highest risk of loss. The Company estimates loss rates based on historical realized losses experienced within its portfolio taking into account current economic conditions affecting the commercial real estate market when establishing appropriate time frames to evaluate loss experience.

Upon adoption of ASU 2018-11, Leases amended ASU 2016-02 so that:2016-13 on January 1, 2020, the Company estimates its Expected Loss on its loans (including unfunded loan commitments), held-to-maturity debt securities and net investment in leases based on relevant information including historical realized loss rates, current market conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability of its investments. The estimate of the Company's Expected Loss requires significant judgment and the Company analyzes its loan portfolio based upon its different categories of financial assets, which includes (i) entities could electloans and held-to-maturity debt securities; (ii) construction loans; and (iii) net investment in leases and financings that resulted from the acquisition of properties that did not qualify as a sale leaseback transaction and, as such, are accounted for as financing receivables (refer to Note 5).

For the Company's loans and held-to-maturity debt securities, the Company utilized a loan loss model developed by Trepp LLC ("Trepp") to estimate its Expected Loss allowance. The model is a loss forecasting tool that utilizes loan level data including each loans position in the capital structure, interest rates, maturity dates, unfunded commitments, debt service coverage ratios, etc. and also utilizes forward looking macroeconomic variables and pool-level mean loss rates to produce an Expected Loss over the life each loan. The Company utilized the model to estimate its Expected Loss for this category of loans after inputting its individual loan level data for this category of loans into the model.

For the Company's construction loans, the Company analyzed its historical realized loss experience on its construction loan portfolio to estimate its Expected Loss allowance. The Company also utilized third-party market data that included historical loss rates on commercial real estate loans and forecasted economic trends, including interest and unemployment rates. The Company utilized the third-party market data to support the Expected Loss the Company calculated using its historical realized loss experience.

For the Company's net investment in leases and financings that resulted from the acquisition of properties that did not recastqualify as sale leaseback transactions, the comparative periods presented when transitioning to ASC 842 by allowing entities to change their initial applicationCompany analyzed historical loss rates for lessors from tenants with a credit rating similar to the beginningCompany's tenant at these properties. The Company also utilized third-party market information as well as market data from Trepp which forecasted economic trends, including interest and unemployment rates, to assist in developing a probability of default and loss given default to calculate the Company's Expected Loss. The Company utilized the third-party market information to support the Expected Loss the Company calculated by analyzing the historical loss rates for lessors from tenants with a credit rating similar to the Company's tenant.
The Company considers a loan or sales-type lease to be non-performing and places it on non-accrual status at such time as: (1) it becomes 90 days delinquent; (2) it has a maturity default; or (3) management determines it is probable that it will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the periodloan or sales-type lease. Non-accrual loans or sales-type leases are returned to accrual status when they have become contractually current and management believes all amounts contractually owed will be received. The Company will record a specific allowance if the Company determines that the collateral fair value less costs to sell is less than the carrying value of adoption;a collateral-dependent asset. The specific allowance is increased (decreased) through "Provision for (recovery of) loan losses" or "Provision for losses on net investment in leases" in the Company's consolidated statements of operations and (ii) provided lessorsis decreased by charge-offs. During delinquency and the foreclosure process, there are typically numerous points of negotiation with the borrower or tenant as the Company works toward a settlement or other alternative resolution, which can impact the potential for repayment or receipt of collateral. The Company's policy is to charge off a loan when it determines, based on a variety of factors, that all commercially reasonable means of recovering the loan balance have been exhausted. This may occur at different times, including when the Company receives cash or other assets in a pre-foreclosure sale or takes control of the underlying collateral in full satisfaction of the loan upon foreclosure or deed-in-lieu, or when the Company has otherwise ceased significant collection efforts. The Company considers circumstances such as the foregoing to be indicators that the final steps in the loan collection process have occurred and that a loan is uncollectible. At this point, a loss is confirmed and the loan and related allowance will be charged off.

The Company made the accounting policy election to record accrued interest on its loan portfolio separate from its loans receivable and other lending investments and to exclude accrued interest from its amortized cost basis disclosures (refer to Note 7). As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, accrued interest was $4.8 million and $4.2 million, respectively, and is recorded in "Accrued interest and operating lease income receivable, net" on the Company's consolidated balance sheets. The Company places loans on non-accrual status once the loan becomes 90 days delinquent and reverses any accrued interest as a reduction to interest income at such time. As such, the Company elected the practical expedient to not separate non-lease components fromrecord an allowance against accrued interest receivable. During the associated lease component ofthree months ended March 31, 2020, the contractual payments if certain conditions are met. Management elected both of these provisions.

ASU 2018-16—ASU 2018-16, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Inclusion of the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") Overnight Index Swap ("OIS") Rate as a Benchmark Interest Rate for Hedge Accounting Purposes was issued in October 2018 and expands the list of U.S. benchmark interest rates permitted in the application of hedge accounting by adding the OIS rate based on SOFR as an eligible benchmark interest rate.

(1)Restricted cash represents amounts required to be maintained under certain of the Company's debt obligations, loans, leasing, land development, sale and derivative transactions.

Deferred expenses and other assets and accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities—Effective January 1, 2019 with the adoption of ASU 2016-02, the Company, as lessee, records right-of-use lease assets in "Deferred expenses and other assets" and lease liabilities in "Accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities" on its consolidated balance sheets for operating and finance leases, both measured at the present value of the lease payments. Some of the Company's lease agreements include extension options, which are not included in the lease payments unless the extensions are reasonably certain to be exercised.
For operating leases, the Company recognizes a single lease cost for office leases in "General and administrative" and a single lease cost for ground leases in "Real estate expense" in the consolidated statements of operations, calculated so that the cost of the lease is allocated generally on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease, and classifies all cash payments within operating activities in the consolidated statements of cash flows. For finance leases, the Company recognizes amortization of the right-of-use assets on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease in "Depreciation and amortization" and interest expense on the lease liability using the effective interest method in "Interest expense" in the consolidated statements of operations. Repayments of the principal portion of the finance lease liability are classified within financing activities in the consolidated statements of cash flows and payments of interest on a finance lease liability are classified within operating activities in the consolidated statement of cash flows.


For the remainder of the Company's significant accounting policies, refer to the Company's 2018 Annual Report.


New Accounting PronouncementsIn June 2016, March 2020, theFASB Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses: Measurement2020-04, Reference Rate Reform ("ASU 2020-04"). ASU 2020-04 contains practical expedients for reference rate reform related activities that impact debt, leases, derivatives and other contracts. The guidance in ASU 2020-04 is optional and may be elected over time as reference rate reform activities occur. In March 2020, the Company elected to apply the hedge accounting expedients related to probability and the assessments of Credit Losseseffectiveness for future LIBOR-indexed cash flows to assume that the index upon which future hedged transactions will be based matches the index on Financial Instruments ("ASU 2016-13"), which was issued to provide financial statement usersthe corresponding derivatives. Application of these expedients preserves the presentation of derivatives consistent with more decision-useful information about the expected credit losses on financial instruments held by a reporting entity. This amendment replaces the incurred loss impairment methodology in current GAAP with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates.past presentation. The Company currently records a general reserve that covers performing loanscontinues to evaluate the impact of the guidance and reserves for loan losses are recorded when: (i) available informationmay apply other elections as of each balance sheet date indicates that it is probable a loss has occurredapplicable as additional changes in the portfolio; and (ii) the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. The formula-based general reserve is derived from estimated principal default probabilities and loss severities applied to groups of loans based upon risk ratings assigned to loans with similar risk characteristics during our quarterly loan portfolio assessment. The Company estimates loss rates based on historical realized losses experiencedmarket occur.

ASU 2016-13 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018. Management is currently evaluating the impact from ASU 2016-13 on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

Net Lease Venture—In February 2014, the Company partnered with a sovereign wealth fund to form a venture to acquire and develop net lease assets (the "Net Lease Venture") and gave a right of first offer to the venture on all new net lease investments. The Company and its partner had joint decision making rights pertaining to the acquisition of new investments. Upon the expiration of the investment period on June 30, 2018, the Company obtained control of the venture through its unilateral rights of management and disposition of the assets. As a result, the expiration of the investment period resulted in a reconsideration event under GAAP and the Company determined that the Net Lease Venture is a VIE for which the Company is the primary beneficiary. Effective June 30, 2018, the Company consolidated the Net Lease Venture as an asset acquisition under ASC 810. The Net Lease Venture had previously been accounted for as an equity method investment. The Company has an equity interest in the Net Lease Venture of approximately 51.9%. The Company is responsible for sourcing new opportunities and managing the venture and its assets in exchange for a management fee and incentive fee. Several of the Company's senior executives whose time is substantially devoted to the Net Lease Venture own a total of 0.6% equity ownership in the venture via co-investment. These senior executives are also entitled to an amount equal to 50% of any incentive fee received based on the 47.5% partner's interest.
The Company earned $0.4 million and $0.4 million, respectively, of management fees after the effect of eliminations during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 with respect to services provided to other investors in the Net Lease Venture, which was recorded as a reduction to "Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests" in the Company's consolidated statements of operations.

Credit Characteristics—As part of the Company's process for monitoring the credit quality of its loans, it performs a quarterly loan portfolio assessment and assigns risk ratings to each of its performing loans. Risk ratings, which range from 1 (lower risk) to 5 (higher risk), are based on judgments, which are inherently uncertain, and there can be no assurance that actual performance will be similar to current expectation. The Company designates loans as non-performing at such time as: (1) the loan becomes 90 days delinquent; (2) the loan has a maturity default; or (3) management determines it is probable that we will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan. All non-performing loans are placed on non-accrual status and income is only recognized in certain cases upon actual cash receipt.

Debt Covenants


The Company's outstanding unsecured debt securities contain corporate level covenants that include a covenant to maintain a ratio of unencumbered assets to unsecured indebtedness, as such terms are defined in the indentures governing the debt securities, of at least 1.2x and a covenant not to incur additional indebtedness (except for incurrences of permitted debt), if on a pro forma basis the Company's consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio, determined in accordance with the indentures governing the Company's debt securities, is 1.5x or lower. If any of the Company's covenants are breached and not cured within applicable cure periods, the breach could result in acceleration of its debt securities unless a waiver or modification is agreed upon with the requisite percentage of the bondholders. If the Company's ability to incur additional indebtedness under the fixed charge coverage ratio is limited, the Company is permitted to incur indebtedness for the purpose of refinancing existing indebtedness and for other permitted purposes under the indentures.


The Company's 2016 Senior Term Loan and the 2015 Revolving Credit Facility contain certain covenants, including covenants relating to collateral coverage, restrictions on fundamental changes, transactions with affiliates, matters relating to the liens granted to the lenders and the delivery of information to the lenders. In particular, the 2016 Senior Term Loan requires the Company to maintain collateral coverage of at least 1.25x outstanding borrowings on the facility. The 2015 Revolving Credit Facility is secured by a borrowing base of assets and requires the Company to maintain both borrowing base asset value of at least 1.5x outstanding borrowings on the facility and a consolidated ratio of cash flow to fixed charges of at least 1.5x. The 2015 Revolving Credit Facility does not require that proceeds from the borrowing base be used to pay down outstanding borrowings provided the borrowing base asset value remains at least 1.5x outstanding borrowings on the facility. To satisfy this covenant, the Company has the option to pay down outstanding borrowings or substitute assets in the borrowing base. The Company may not pay common dividends if it ceases to qualify as a REIT. In June 2018,Under both the Company amended the terms of the 2016 Senior Term Loan and the 2015 Revolving Credit Facility to include the ability to pay common dividends with no restrictions so long as the Company is notpermitted to pay dividends provided that no material default (as defined in default on any ofthe relevant agreement) has occurred and is continuing or would result therefrom and the Company remains in compliance with its debt obligations.financial covenants after giving effect to the dividend.


The Company's 2016 Senior Term Loan and the 2015 Revolving Credit Facility contain cross default provisions that would allow the lenders to declare an event of default and accelerate the Company's indebtedness to them if the Company fails to pay amounts due in respect of its other recourse indebtedness in excess of specified thresholds or if the lenders under such other indebtedness are otherwise permitted to accelerate such indebtedness for any reason. The indentures governing the Company's unsecured public debt securities permit the bondholders to declare an event of default and accelerate the Company's indebtedness to them if the

The Company may have derivatives that are not designated as hedges because they do not meet the strict hedge accounting requirements. Although not designated as hedges, such derivatives are entered into to manage the Company's exposure to interest rate movements foreign exchange rate movements and other identified risks.

(1)Holders of shares of the Series D, G I and JI preferred stock are entitled to receive dividends, when and as declared by the Company's Board of Directors, out of funds legally available for the payment of dividends. Dividends are cumulative from the date of original issue and are payable quarterly in arrears on or before the 15th day of each March, June, September and December or, if not a business day, the next succeeding business day. Any dividend payable on the preferred stock for any partial dividend period will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. Dividends will be payable to holders of record as of the close of business on the first day of the calendar month in which the applicable dividend payment date falls or on another date designated by the Company's Board of Directors for the payment of dividends that is not more than 30 nor less than 10 days prior to the dividend payment date.
(2)The Company declared and paid dividends of $2.0 million, $1.5 million and $2.3 million on its Series D, G and I Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock during the three months ended March 31, 20192020 and 2018,2019, respectively. The Company declared and paid dividends of $2.3 million on its Series J Convertible Perpetual Preferred Stock during the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018. The Company redeemed all of its issued and outstanding Series E and F Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock in October 2017.2019. The character of the 20182019 dividends was 100% capital gain distribution, of which 26.02%34.01% represented unrecaptured section 1250 gain and 73.98% represented long term capital gain. There are no0 dividend arrearages on any of the preferred shares currently outstanding.
(3)The Company may, at its option, redeem the Series G and I Preferred Stock, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time, for cash at a redemption price equal to 100% of the liquidation preference of $25.00 per share, plus accrued and unpaid dividends, if any, to the redemption date.
(4)Each share of the Series J Preferred Stock is convertible at the holder's option at any time into shares of the Company's common stock. The Company may, at its option, redeem the Series J Preferred Stock, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time, for cash at a redemption price equal to 100% of the liquidation preference of $50.00 per share, plus accrued and unpaid dividends, if any, to the redemption date. The conversion rate as of March 31, 2019 was 4.0149 shares of the Company's common stock (equal to a conversion price of approximately $12.45 per share). The conversion rate is subject to adjustment from time to time for specified events.


Dividends—To maintain its qualification as a REIT, the Company must annually distribute, at a minimum, an amount equal to 90% of its taxable income, excluding net capital gains, and must distribute 100% of its taxable income (including net capital gains) to eliminate corporate federal income taxes payable by the REIT. The Company has recorded NOLs and may record NOLs in the future, which may reduce its taxable income in future periods and lower or eliminate entirely the Company's obligation to

pay dividends for such periods in order to maintain its REIT qualification. As of December 31, 2017,2018, the Company had $582.4$567.7 million of NOL carryforwards at the corporate REIT level that can generally be used to offset both ordinary taxable income and capital gain net income in future years. The NOL carryforwards will begin to expire in 20292031 and will fully expire in 2036 if unused. The amount of NOL carryforwards as of December 31, 2019 will be determined upon finalization of the Company's 2019 tax return. Because taxable income differs from cash flow from operations due to non-cash revenues and expenses (such as depreciation and certain asset impairments), in certain circumstances, the Company may generate operating cash flow in excess of its dividends, or alternatively, may need to make dividend payments in excess of operating cash flows. The 2016 Senior Term Loan and the 2015 Revolving Credit Facility permit the Company to pay common dividends with no restrictions so long as the Company is not in default on any of its debt obligations. The Company declared and paid common stock dividends of $7.8 million, or $0.10 per share, for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and $6.2 million, and $6.1 million, respectively, or $0.09 per share, for the three months ended March 31, 2019. The Company did not declare or pay any common stock dividends for the three months ended March 31, 2018.

The Company owns 100% of the class A units and the class B units were issued to employees as long-term compensation. Except for certain clawback provisions, participants can retain vested class B units upon their termination of employment with the Company. The class B units are entitled to distributions from the net cash realized from the investments in the plan after the Company, through its ownership of the class A units, has received a specified return on its invested capital and a return of its invested capital. Distributions on the class B units are also subject to reductions under a total shareholder return ("TSR") adjustment. The fair value of the class B units was determined using a model that forecasts the underlying cash flows from the investments within the entity to which the class B units have ownership rights. During the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company recorded $0.7 million and $0.4 million, respectively, of expense related to the 2019-2020 iPIP plan.

The Company will settle conversions of the 3.125% Convertible Notes (refer to Note 11) by paying the conversion value in cash up to the original principal amount of the notes being converted and shares of common stock to the extent of any conversion premium. The amount of cash and shares of common stock, if any, due upon conversion will be based on a daily conversion value calculated for each trading day in a 40 consecutive day observation period. Based upon the conversion price of the 3.125% Convertible Notes, no shares of common stock would have been issuable upon conversion of the 3.125% Convertible Notes for the three months ended March 31, 20192020 and 20182019 and therefore the 3.125% Convertible Notes had no effect on diluted EPS for such periods.

Note 16—17—Fair Values
Fair value represents the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The following fair value hierarchy prioritizes the inputs to be used in valuation techniques to measure fair value:
Level 1:    Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities;
Level 2:    Quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs which are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability; and
Level 3:    Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (i.e., supported by little or no market activity).

Certain of the Company's assets and liabilities are recorded at fair value either on a recurring or non-recurring basis. Assets required to be marked-to-market and reported at fair value every reporting period are classified as being valued on a recurring basis. Assets not required to be recorded at fair value every period may be recorded at fair value if a specific provision or other impairment is recorded within the period to mark the carrying value of the asset to market as of the reporting date. Such assets are classified as being valued on a non-recurring basis.

Note 19—Subsequent Events

The coronavirus ("COVID-19") pandemic outbreak has rapidly and dramatically impacted the United States and global economies. Many countries, including the United States, have instituted quarantines, mandated business and school closures and restricted travel. The United States financial markets have experienced disruption, with heightened stock market volatility and constrained credit conditions within most sectors, including real estate. Many experts predict that the outbreak will trigger a period of global economic slowdown or a global recession. At this time, the Company cannot predict the extent of the impacts of the COVID-19 crisis on its business. The ultimate impact of COVID-19 on the Company's business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows is dependent on future developments, including the duration of the pandemic and the extent of its impact on the global economy, which are uncertain and cannot be predicted at this time. See the Risk Factors section of this report for additional discussion of certain potential risks to the Company's business arising from the COVID-19 crisis.

Introduction
iStar Inc. ("iStar") finances, invests in and develops real estate and real estate related projects as part of its fully-integrated investment platform. We also manage entities focused on ground lease ("Ground Lease") and net lease investments. We have invested approximately $40 billion of capital over the past two decades and are structured as a real estate investment trust ("REIT") with a diversified portfolio focused on larger assets located in major metropolitan markets. Our primary business segments are real estate finance, net lease, operating properties and land and development.
Executive Overview


Capital remains cheapThe coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak has rapidly and plentiful in most traditional lending sectors ofdramatically impacted the commercial real estate markets,US and we expect that to continue forglobal economies. Many countries, including the remainder of 2019. In addition, interest ratesUnited States, have instituted quarantines, mandated business and the equityschool closures and restricted travel. The US financial markets have experienced some volatility.significant disruption, with heightened stock market volatility and highly constrained credit conditions within most sectors, including real estate. We have taken a cautious approach in these conditions, focusingare focused on providing capital to customers with whom we have a pre-existing relationship, originating fewer traditional loansensuring the health and aggressively seeking to monetize legacy assets.
Consistent with our historical approach of offering differentiated capital where we believe we can capture better risk-adjusted returns, we have invested, and intend to continue to invest, moresafety of our capitalpersonnel and resources in the Ground Lease business. In January 2019, we expanded our relationship withcontinuity of business activities at iStar and SAFE, through an additional $250.0 million equity investment and an amendment of our management agreement with SAFE that gives us greater protection against a terminationmonitoring the effects of the agreement,crisis on our and incentivizes us to grow SAFE's portfolio.customers, marshalling available liquidity at both companies, implementing appropriate cost containment measures and preparing for the eventual resumption of more normalized activities. At this time, we cannot predict the extent of the impacts of the COVID-19 crisis on our or SAFE's business. We have also pursued and will continue to pursue jointmonitor its effects on a daily basis and will adjust operations as necessary
The crisis began to materially affect our business in the latter part of the first quarter when we and most of our tenants and borrowers began working from home and normal business operations at companies throughout the United States ceased. There are no reliable forecasts as to how long these conditions will persist. While our financial results for the first quarter of 2020 were generally in line with our expectations, we may experience a material decline in rent and interest payments received in the second quarter and thereafter until more normalized business conditions resume. We increased our allowance for loan losses in the first quarter and expect that we will continue to do so in future quarters while the COVID-19 pandemic continues to materially affect the US economy.
In 2019, we took advantage of favorable interest rate and liquidity conditions to refinance and pay down outstanding debt through the issuance of an aggregate of $1.325 billion of unsecured notes. The refinancings reduced our interest costs and improved our debt maturity profile. We have no corporate debt maturities through September 2022. In addition, in the fourth quarter 2019 substantially all of our Series J preferred stock was converted by the holders thereof into approximately 16.5 million shares of our common stock, which increased our equity base. Subsequent to March 31, 2020, we repaid the Revolving Credit Facility in full and our liquidity position at the date of this report included approximately $85 million of unrestricted cash and $350 million of undrawn capacity on our Revolving Credit Facility (refer to Note 11).
The COVID-19 crisis may adversely affect our strategies of monetizing legacy assets and materially scaling SAFE's portfolio for the time being. Equity and debt financing for real estate transactions with SAFE,generally is constrained. In addition, the crisis has made it more difficult to execute transactions as people are unable to visit properties, local governmental offices are closed and third parties such as offering customers a SAFE Ground Leasesurvey, insurance, environmental and an iStar leasehold loan.
In July 2018, we entered into "Net Lease Venture II" with total capital commitmentssimilar services have more limited capacities. These conditions may adversely affect our strategy while they persist. See the Risk Factors section of $526 million and an investment strategy similar to the Net Lease Venture. We have an equity interest in the new venturethis report for additional discussion of approximately 51.9% and are responsible for managing the venture in exchange for management and incentive fees.
For the three months ended March 31, 2019, we recorded net loss allocable to common shareholders of $17.6 million, compared to net income of $26.8 million during the same period in the prior year. Adjusted income (loss) allocable to common shareholders for the three months ended March 31, 2019 was $(120.0) thousand, compared to $132.3 million during the same period in the prior year (see "Adjusted Income" for a reconciliation of adjusted income to net income).
We continue to work on monetizing, repositioning or redeveloping our legacy portfolio, which includes transitional operating properties and land and development assets, such as the Asbury Park assemblage and the Magnolia Green community (refercertain potential risks to our Annual Report on Form 10-K), in order to maximize their value.business arising from the COVID-19 crisis.

Portfolio Overview

As of March 31, 2019, we had $315.4 million of cash and $325.0 million of credit facility availability. We have no debt maturities for the remainder of 2019. We expect to use our unrestricted cash balance primarily to fund future investment activities, pay debt service, make distributions to shareholders and for general working capital needs.

Real Estate Finance

Our real estate finance business targets sophisticated and innovative owner/operators of real estate and real estate related projects by providing one-stop capabilities that encompass financing alternatives ranging from full envelope senior loans to mezzanine and preferred equity capital positions. As of March 31, 2019, our real estate finance portfolio, including securities, totaled $907.3 million, exclusive of general loan loss reserves. The portfolio, excluding securities, included $778.1 million of performing loans with a weighted average maturity of 1.8 years.

Non-Performing Loans—We designate loans as non-performing at such time as: (1) the loan becomes 90 days delinquent; (2) the loan has a maturity default; or (3) management determines it is probable that we will be unable to collect all amounts due

according to the contractual terms of the loan. All non-performing loans are placed on non-accrual status and income is only recognized in certain cases upon actual cash receipt. As of March 31, 2019, we had non-performing loans with an aggregate carrying value of $25.6 million compared to non-performing loans with an aggregate carrying value of $26.3 million as of December 31, 2018. We expect that our level of non-performing loans will fluctuate from period to period.

Reserve for Loan Losses—The reserve for loan losses was $53.3 million as of March 31, 2019, or 6.3% of total loans, compared to $53.4 million or 5.8% as of December 31, 2018. For the three months ended March 31, 2019, the recovery of loan losses included a decrease in the general reserve of $0.6 million offset by an increase in the specific reserve of $0.5 million. We expect that our level of reserve for loan losses will fluctuate from period to period. Due to the volatility of the commercial real estate market, the process of estimating collateral values and reserves requires the use of significant judgment. We currently believe there is adequate collateral and reserves to support the carrying values of the loans.

The reserve for loan losses includes an asset-specific component and a formula-based component. An asset-specific reserve is established for an impaired loan when the estimated fair value of the loan's collateral less costs to sell is lower than the carrying value of the loan. As of March 31, 2019, asset-specific reserves increased to $40.9 million compared to $40.4 million as of December 31, 2018.

The formula-based general reserve is derived from estimated principal default probabilities and loss severities applied to groups of performing loans based upon risk ratings assigned to loans with similar risk characteristics during our quarterly loan portfolio assessment. During this assessment, we perform a comprehensive analysis of our loan portfolio and assign risk ratings to loans that incorporate management's current judgments and future expectations about their credit quality based on all known and relevant factors that may affect collectability. We consider, among other things, payment status, lien position, borrower financial resources and investment in collateral, collateral type, project economics and geographical location as well as national and regional economic factors. This methodology results in loans being segmented by risk classification into risk rating categories that are associated with estimated probabilities of default and principal loss. We estimate loss rates based on historical realized losses experienced within our portfolio and take into account current economic conditions affecting the commercial real estate market when establishing appropriate time frames to evaluate loss experience.

The general reserve decreased to $12.4 million or 1.6% of performing loans as of March 31, 2019, compared to $13.0 million or 1.5% of performing loans as of December 31, 2018. The decrease was primarily attributable to an overall improvement in the risk ratings.


Net Lease


Our net lease business seeks to create stable cash flows through long-term net leases primarily to single tenants on our properties. We target mission-critical facilities leased on a long-term basis to tenants, offering structured solutions that combine our capabilities in underwriting, lease structuring, asset management and build-to-suit construction. Leases typically provide for expenses at the facility to be paid by the tenant on a triple net lease basis. Under a typical net lease agreement, the tenant agrees to pay a base monthly operating lease payment and most or all of the facility operating expenses (including taxes, utilities, maintenance and insurance). We generally intend to hold our net lease assets for long-term investment. However, we may dispose of assets if we deem the disposition to be in our best interests.



The net lease segment includes our Ground Lease investments made primarily through SAFE and our traditional net lease investments and our investment in SAFE.investments. As of March 31, 2019,2020, our consolidated net lease portfolio totaled $2.1 billion. Our net lease portfolio, including the carrying value of our equity method investments in SAFE and Net Lease Venture II, exclusive of accumulated depreciation, totaled $2.5$3.0 billion. The table below provides certain statistics for our net lease portfolio.

Net Lease Venture—In February 2014, the Company partnered with a sovereign wealth fund to form a venture to acquire and develop net lease assets and gave a right of first refusal to the venture on all new net lease investments that met specified investment criteria (refer to Note 74 in our consolidated financial statements for more information on our Net Lease Venture). The Net Lease Venture's investment period expired on June 30, 2018 and the remaining term of the venture extends through February 13, 2022, subject to two, one-year extension options at the discretion of us and our partner. We obtained control over the Net Lease Venture when the investment period expired on June 30, 2018 and consolidated the assets and liabilities of the venture, which had previously been accounted for as an equity method investment.
Net Lease Venture II—In July 2018, we entered into Net Lease Venture II with similar investment strategies as the Net Lease Venture (refer to Note 7)8). The Net Lease Venture II has a right of first offer on all new net lease investments (excluding Ground Leases) originated by us. We have an equity interest in the new venture of approximately 51.9%, which is accounted for as an equity method investment, and are responsible for managing the venture in exchange for a management fee and incentive fee.


SAFE—SAFE is a publicly-traded company that originates and acquires Ground Leases in order to generate attractive long-term risk-adjusted returns from its investments. We believe its business has characteristics comparable to a high-grade fixed income investment business, but with certain unique advantages. Relative to alternative fixed income investments generally, SAFE's Ground Leases typically benefit from built-in growth derived from contractual rent increases, and the opportunity to realize value from residual rights to acquire the buildings and other improvements on its land at no additional cost. We believe that these features offer us the opportunity through our ownership in SAFE to realize superior risk-adjusted total returns when compared to certain alternative highly-rated investments. As of March 31, 2020, we owned approximately 65.4% of SAFE's common stock outstanding.
We account for our investment in SAFE as an equity method investment (refer to Note 7)8). We areact as SAFE's external manager pursuant to a management agreement, and we have an exclusivity agreement with SAFE pursuant to which we agreed, subject to certain exceptions, that we will not acquire, originate, invest in, or provide financing for a third party’s acquisition of, a Ground Lease unless we have first offered that opportunity to SAFE and a majority of its independent directors has declined the opportunity.
Real Estate Finance

Our real estate finance business targets sophisticated and innovative owner/operators of real estate and real estate related projects by providing one-stop capabilities that encompass financing alternatives ranging from full envelope senior loans to mezzanine and preferred equity capital positions. Our real estate finance portfolio consists of senior mortgage loans that are secured by commercial and residential real estate assets where we are the first lien holder, subordinated mortgage loans that are secured by second lien or junior interests in commercial and residential real estate assets, leasehold loans to Ground Lease tenants, including tenants of SAFE, and corporate/partnership loans, which represent mezzanine or subordinated loans to entities for which we do not have a lien on the underlying asset, but may have a pledge of underlying equity ownership of such assets. Our real estate finance portfolio includes loans on stabilized and transitional properties, Ground Leases and ground-up construction projects. In addition, we have preferred equity investments and debt securities classified as other lending investments.

As of March 31, 2020, our real estate finance portfolio, including securities and other lending investments, totaled $862.4 million, exclusive of general loan loss allowance. The portfolio, excluding securities and other lending investments, included $692.1 million of performing loans with a weighted average maturity of 1.4 years.

Non-Performing Loans—We designate loans as non-performing at such time as: (1) the loan becomes 90 days delinquent; (2) the loan has a maturity default; or (3) management determines it is probable that we will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan. All non-performing loans are placed on non-accrual status and income is only recognized in certain cases upon actual cash receipt. As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, we owned approximately 42.4%had one non-performing loan with a carrying value of SAFE's common stock outstanding.$15.8 million and $16.1 million, respectively. We expect that our level of non-performing loans will fluctuate from period to period.
On January 2, 2019, we purchased 12,500,000 newly designated limited partnership units (the "Investor Units") in SAFE's operating partnership ("SAFE OP")
Allowance for Loan Losses—The allowance for loan losses was $33.3 million as of March 31, 2020, or 4.6% of total loans, compared to $28.6 million, or 4.1%, at a purchase priceas of $20.00 per unit,December 31, 2019. We expect that our level of allowance for a total purchase price of $250.0 million. The purposeloan losses will fluctuate from period to period. Due to the volatility of the investment wascommercial real estate market, the process of estimating collateral values and allowances requires the use of significant judgment. We currently believe there is adequate collateral and allowances to provide SAFE with capital to fund additional Ground Lease acquisitions and originations.support the carrying values of the loans.

The Investor Units haveallowance for loan losses includes an asset-specific component and a formula-based component. An asset-specific allowance is established for an impaired loan when the following features:estimated fair value of the loan's collateral less costs to sell is lower than the carrying value of the loan. As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, asset-specific allowances were $21.7 million.

The formula-based general allowance is derived from estimated principal default probabilities and loss severities applied to receive equivalent distributions per unitgroups of performing loans based upon risk ratings assigned to those paid on one shareloans with similar risk characteristics during our quarterly loan portfolio assessment. During this assessment, we perform a comprehensive analysis of SAFE common stock;

SAFE has agreed to seek stockholder approval to exchange the Investor Units for shares of SAFE common stock, on a one-for-one basis.
The Investor Units represent an approximate 40.6% fully diluted economic interest in SAFE. After giving effect to the issuance of the Investor Units, our aggregate fully diluted economic interest in SAFE (including the shares of SAFE common stockloans that incorporate management's current judgments and Investor Units owned by us) is approximately 65.8%; however, our voting power in SAFE will remain capped at 41.9%, as a result of the limitations described below.
In connection with our purchase of the Investor Units, we entered into a Stockholder's Agreement with SAFE on January 2, 2019. The Stockholder's Agreement:
limits our discretionary voting power to 41.9% of the outstanding voting power of SAFE's Common Stock until our aggregate ownership of SAFE common stock is less than 41.9%;
requires us to cast all of our voting power in favor of three director nominees to SAFE's board who are independent of each of us and SAFE for three years;
subjects us to certain standstill provisions for two years;
restricts our ability to transfer shares of SAFE common stock issued in exchange for Investor Units, or "Exchange Shares," for one year afterfuture expectations about their issuance;
prohibits us from transferring shares of SAFE common stock representing more than 20% of the outstanding SAFE common stock in one transaction or a series of related transactions to any person or group, other than pursuant to a widely distributed public offering, unless SAFE's other stockholders have participation rights in the transaction; and
provides us certain preemptive rights.

In connection with the new investment, SFTY Manager LLC (our wholly-owned subsidiary) and SAFE amended and restated the Management Agreement, dated as of June 27, 2017, between them, the "Amended and Restated Management Agreement". The Amended and Restated Management Agreement, dated January 2, 2019, generally provides for incremental increases in the base management fee payable to the manager from a minimum of 1.0% to a maximum of 1.5% of SAFE's Total Equity (as defined in the agreement) as it increases. The management fee will be payable in cash or SAFE common stock, at SAFE's election (as determined by SAFE's independent directors). SAFE common stock issued to pay the management fee will be valued at the greater of $20.00 or a recent volume weighted average market price.
The Amended and Restated Management Agreement has an initial term through June 30, 2022 during which the agreement is non-terminable, except for certain cause events. After the initial term, the agreement will be automatically renewed for additional one year terms, subject to certain rights of SAFE's independent directors to terminate the agreementcredit quality based on the manager's materially detrimental long-term performance or, beginning with the seventh annual renewal term after the initial term, unfair management feesall known and relevant factors that the manager declines to renegotiate. SAFE will be obligated to pay the manager a termination fee equal to three times the annual management fee paid in respect of the last completed fiscal year prior to the termination if, by the time of such termination, SAFE has raised Total Equity of at least $820.0 million since inception, including from us.
In connection with our purchase of the Investor Units, the parties also entered into an Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement, dated January 2, 2019, which requires SAFE to,may affect collectability. We consider, among other things, use commercially reasonable effortspayment status, lien position, borrower financial resources and investment in collateral, collateral type, project economics and geographical location as well as national and regional economic factors. This methodology results in loans being segmented by risk classification into risk rating categories that are associated with estimated probabilities of default and principal loss. We estimate loss rates based on historical realized losses experienced within our portfolio and take into account current economic conditions affecting the commercial real estate market when establishing appropriate time frames to fileevaluate loss experience.

The general allowance increased to $11.6 million or 1.7% of performing loans and other lending investments as of March 31, 2020, compared to $6.9 million or 1.0% of performing loans and other lending investments as of December 31, 2019. The increase was due to a shelf registration statement with$0.7 million general allowance recorded upon the Securitiesadoption of ASU 2016-13 on January 1, 2020 (refer to Note 3) and Exchange Commission providing for resalean increase in the general allowance of all shares of SAFE common stock held by us. The agreement also provides us with certain demand registration rights.$3.9 million during the three months ended March 31, 2020.

Interest income decreased $6.3$3.2 million, or 23.7%16%, to $20.4$17.2 million during the three months ended March 31, 20192020 from $26.7$20.4 million for the same period in 2018.2019. The decrease was due primarily to a decrease in the average balance of our performing loans and other lending investments, which was $0.91 billion$792 million for the three months ended March 31, 20192020 and $1.14 billion$910 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018.2019. The weighted average yield on our performing loans and other lending investments was 9.1%8.2% and 9.4%9.1%, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019.
On January 1, 2019, we adopted new accounting standards and 2018, respectively.classified certain of our leases in 2019 as sales-type leases. Under sales-type leases, we accrue interest income from sales-type leases under the effective interest method as opposed to recognition of operating lease income under the straight-line rent method for our leases that do not qualify as sales-type leases. Interest income from sales-type leases was $8.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020.
Other income decreased $0.5increased $5.6 million, or 3.3%38%, to $14.8$20.4 million during the three months ended March 31, 20192020 from $15.3$14.8 million for the same period in 2018.2019. Other income during the three months ended March 31, 2020 consisted primarily of a gain we recognized in connection with an equity security, income from our hotel properties, other ancillary income from our operating properties, land and development projects and loan portfolio and interest income on our cash. Other income during the three months ended March 31, 2019 consisted primarily of income from our hotel properties, other ancillary income from our operating properties and loan portfolioland and development projects and interest income on our cash. OtherThe increase in 2020 was due primarily to a $9.9 million gain we recognized in connection with an equity security, partially offset by a decrease in ancillary income duringfrom our land and development projects.

Landunits and recognized land development revenue andof $80.2 million which had associated cost of sales of $77.1 million. During the three months ended March 31, 2019, we sold residential lots and units and recognized land development revenue of $12.7 million which had associated cost of sales of $14.4 million. During the three months ended March 31, 2018, we sold land parcels and residential lots and units and recognized land development revenue of $276.4 million which had associated cost of sales of $223.4 million. The decreaseincrease in 20192020 was primarily the result of two bulk parcel sales during$36.0 million in land development revenue from the three months ended March 31, 2018.sale of a master planned community in California with a corresponding increase in cost of sales.
Costs and expenses—Interest expense increased $1.4decreased $3.2 million, or 3.1%7%, to $46.6$43.4 million during the three months ended March 31, 20192020 from $45.2$46.6 million for the same period in 20182019 due primarily to an increasea decrease in our weighted average cost of debt, which was 4.9% for the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to 5.5% for the three months ended March 31, 2019. The balance of our average outstanding debt, inclusive of loan participations and lease liabilities associated with finance-type leases, and debt classified within “Liabilities associated with properties held for sale” as of March 31, 2019, which increaseddecreased to $3.60$3.57 billion for the three months ended March 31, 20192020 from $3.47$3.60 billion for the same period in 2018. Our weighted average cost of debt for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 was 5.5% and 5.4%, respectively. The increase in debt was primarily attributable to our consolidation of the Net Lease Venture on June 30, 2018, of which we own a 51.9% equity interest, which increased our interest expense by $5.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019. This impact was offset by our repayment in full the 5.00% senior unsecured notes due July 2019.

Real estate expenses decreased $10.3$3.4 million, or 28.3%13%, to $25.9$22.5 million during the three months ended March 31, 20192020 from $36.2$25.9 million for the same period in 2018.2019. The following table summarizes our real estate expenses by segment ($ in millions).

Adjusted IncomeEarnings


In addition2019, we announced a new business strategy that would focus our management personnel and our investment resources primarily on scaling our Ground Lease platform. As part of this strategy, we accelerated the monetization of legacy assets, reducing our legacy portfolio to approximately 16% of our overall portfolio as of March 31, 2020, and deployed a substantial portion of the proceeds into additional investments in SAFE and new loan and net lease originations relating to the Ground Lease business. Management has determined that, effective for the quarter ended March 31, 2020, a modified non-GAAP earnings metric, designated "adjusted earnings," is the metric it uses to assess our execution of this strategy and the performance of our operations. Adjusted earnings reflects impairment charges and loan provisions in the same period in which they are recognized in net income (loss) prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("GAAP"), we use adjusted income,rather than in a non-GAAP financial measure,later period when the asset is sold. We believe this change is appropriate as legacy asset sales become less central to measure our operating performance. business, even though sales may be material to particular periods when they occur.

Adjusted incomeearnings is used internally as a supplemental performance measure adjusting for certain non-cash GAAP measuresitems to give management a view of income more directly derived from currentoperating activities in the period activity.in which they occur. Adjusted incomeearnings is calculated as net income (loss) allocable to common shareholders, prior to the effect of depreciation and amortization, provision for (recovery of) loan losses, impairmentincluding our proportionate share of assets,depreciation and amortization from equity method investments and excluding depreciation and amortization allocable to noncontrolling interests, stock-based compensation expense, the imputed non-cash interest expense recognized for the conversion feature of our senior convertible notes, the non-cash portion of gain (loss)loss on early extinguishment of debt and is adjusted for the effectliquidation preference recorded as a premium above book value on the redemption of gains or losses on charge-offs and dispositions on carrying value gross of loan loss reserves and impairmentspreferred stock ("Adjusted Income"Earnings"). Adjusted Income also includes the impact to retained earnings (income that wouldAll prior periods have been recognizedcalculated in prior periods had the accounting standards been effective during those prior periods) resulting from the adoption of new accounting standards on January 1, 2018.accordance with this definition.



Adjusted IncomeEarnings should be examined in conjunction with net income (loss) as shown in our consolidated statements of operations. Adjusted IncomeEarnings should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss) (determined in accordance with GAAP), or to cash flows from operating activities (determined in accordance with GAAP), as a measure of our liquidity, nor is Adjusted IncomeEarnings indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs or available for distribution to shareholders. Rather, Adjusted IncomeEarnings is an additional measure we use to analyze our business performance because it excludes the effects of certain non-cash charges that we believe are not necessarily indicative of our operating performance while including the effect of gains or losses on investments when realized.performance. It should be noted that our manner of calculating Adjusted IncomeEarnings may differ from the calculations of similarly-titled measures by other companies.

Liquidity and Capital Resources


During the three months ended March 31, 2019,2020, we invested $479.5$182.9 million into new investments, prior financing commitments and ongoing real estate development. This amount includes $65.6$42.5 million in lending and other investments, $40.5real estate finance, $15.6 million to develop our land and development assets, $366.9$124.0 million to invest in net lease assets inclusive of $105.5 million in SAFE, and $6.5$0.7 million of capital to reposition or redevelop our operating properties.properties and $0.1 million in other investments. Also during the three months ended March 31, 2019,2020, we generated $280.9$114.8 million of proceeds from loan repayments and asset sales within our portfolio, comprised of $163.8$18.2 million from real estate finance, $77.3$10.1 million from operating properties and net lease assets and $39.8$86.4 million from land and development assets.

As ofSubsequent to March 31, 2019,2020, we repaid the Revolving Credit Facility in full and as of the date of this report, we had unrestricted cash of $315.4 million.approximately $85.0 million and $350.0 million of borrowing capacity available under the Revolving Credit Facility. The COVID-19 crisis has for the time being adversely affected our strategies of monetizing legacy assets and materially scaling SAFE's portfolio as its Manager. These conditions may adversely affect our strategies while they persist. Our primary cash uses over the next 12 months are expected to be funding of investments, capital expenditures, distributions to shareholders and funding ongoing business operations. OverIn the next 12 months,near term we currently expectplan to fund inlimit cash expenditures to the range of approximately $75.0 million to $125.0 million of capital expenditures within our portfolio. The majority of these amounts relate to our land and development projects and operating properties, and include multifamily and residential development activities which are expected to include approximately $40.0 million in vertical construction.extent practicable. The amount we actually investedinvest will depend on the full impact of COVID-19 on our business and the pace of our development activities as well as the extent to which we strategically partner with others to complete these projects. As of March 31, 2019, weeconomic recovery. We also had approximately $428.1$284.4 million of maximum unfunded commitments associated with our investments of which we expect to fund the majority of over the next two years, assuming borrowers and tenants meet all milestones, performance hurdles and all other conditions to fundings (see "Unfunded Commitments" below). We also have $415.8$472.7 million principal amount of scheduled real estate finance maturities over the next 12 months, exclusive of any extension options that can be exercised by our borrowers. Our capital sources to meet cash uses through the next 12 months and beyond are expected to include cash on hand, income from our portfolio, loan repayments from borrowers and proceeds from asset sales.

We cannot predict with certainty the specific transactions we will undertake to generate sufficient liquidity to meet our obligations as they come due. We will adjust our plans as appropriate in response to changes in our expectations and changes in market conditions. While economic trends have stabilized, it is not possible for us to predict whether these trends will continue or to quantify the impact of these or other trends on our financial results.

Debt Covenants—Our outstanding unsecured debt securities contain corporate level covenants that include a covenant to maintain a ratio of unencumbered assets to unsecured indebtedness, as such terms are defined in the indentures governing the debt securities, of at least 1.2x and a covenant not to incur additional indebtedness (except for incurrences of permitted debt), if on a pro forma basis our consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio, determined in accordance with the indentures governing our debt securities, is 1.5x or lower. If any of our covenants are breached and not cured within applicable cure periods, the breach could result in acceleration of our debt securities unless a waiver or modification is agreed upon with the requisite percentage of the

bondholders. If our ability to incur additional indebtedness under the fixed charge coverage ratio is limited, we are permitted to incur indebtedness for the purpose of refinancing existing indebtedness and for other permitted purposes under the indentures.
The 2016 Senior Term Loan and the 2015 Revolving Credit Facility contain certain covenants, including covenants relating to collateral coverage, restrictions on fundamental changes, transactions with affiliates, matters relating to the liens granted to the lenders and the delivery of information to the lenders. In particular, the 2016 Senior Term Loan requires us to maintain collateral coverage of at least 1.25x outstanding borrowings on the facility. The 2015 Revolving Credit Facility is secured by a borrowing base of assets and requires us to maintain both borrowing base asset value of at least 1.5x outstanding borrowings on the facility and a consolidated ratio of cash flow to fixed charges of at least 1.5x. The 2015 Revolving Credit Facility does not require that proceeds from the borrowing base be used to pay down outstanding borrowings provided the borrowing base asset value remains at least 1.5x outstanding borrowings on the facility. To satisfy this covenant, we have the option to pay down outstanding borrowings or substitute assets in the borrowing base. We may not pay dividends if we cease to qualify as a REIT. In June 2018, we amendedUnder both the terms of the 2016 Senior Term Loan and the 2015 Revolving Credit Facility to include the abilitywe are permitted to pay common dividends provided that no material default (as defined in the relevant agreement) has occurred and is continuing or would result therefrom and we remain in compliance with no restrictions so long as we are not in default on any of our debt obligations.financial covenants after giving effect to the dividend. We declared and paid common stock dividends of $6.2$7.8 million, or $0.09$0.10 per share, for the three months ended March 31, 2019.2020.


Derivatives—Our use of derivative financial instruments is primarily limited to the utilization of interest rate swaps, interest rate caps or other instruments to manage interest rate risk exposure and foreign exchange contracts to manage our risk to changes in foreign currencies. Refer to Note 1213 to the consolidated financial statements.


Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements—We are not dependent on the use of any off-balance sheet financing arrangements for liquidity. We have made investments in various unconsolidated ventures. Refer to Note 78 to the consolidated financial statements for further details of our unconsolidated investments. Our maximum exposure to loss from these investments is limited to the carrying value of our investments and any unfunded commitments (see below).



Unfunded Commitments—We generally fund construction and development loans and build-outs of space in net lease assets over a period of time if and when the borrowers and tenants meet established milestones and other performance criteria. We refer to these arrangements as Performance-Based Commitments. In addition, we have committed to invest capital in several real estate funds and other ventures. These arrangements are referred to as Strategic Investments. As of March 31, 20192020, the maximum amount of fundings we may be obligated to make under each category, assuming all performance hurdles and milestones are met under the Performance-Based Commitments and assuming that 100% of our capital committed to Strategic Investments is drawn down, are as follows (in thousands):

Critical Accounting Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and judgments in certain circumstances that affect amounts reported as assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. We have established detailed policies and control procedures intended to ensure that valuation methods, including any judgments made as part of such methods, are well controlled, reviewed and applied consistently from period to period. We base our estimates on historical corporate and industry experience and various other assumptions that we believe to be appropriate under the circumstances. For all of these estimates, we caution that future events rarely develop exactly as forecasted, and, therefore, routinely require adjustment.
For a discussion of our critical accounting policies, refer to Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements and our 2017 Annual Report on Form 10-K.


New Accounting Pronouncements—For a discussion of the impact of new accounting pronouncements on our financial condition or results of operations, refer to Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements.

Item 3.    Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
Market Risks
Market risk is the exposure to loss resulting from changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices and equity prices. In pursuing our business plan, the primary market risk to which we are exposed is interest rate risk. Our operating results will depend in part on the difference between the interest and related income earned on our assets and the interest expense incurred in connection with our interest-bearing liabilities. Changes in the general level of interest rates prevailing in the financial markets will affect the spread between our floating rate assets and liabilities subject to the net amount of floating rate assets/liabilities and the impact of interest rate floors and caps. Any significant compression of the spreads between interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities could have a material adverse effect on us.
In the event of a significant rising interest rate environment or economic downturn, defaults could increase and cause us to incur additional credit losses which would adversely affect our liquidity and operating results. Such delinquencies or defaults would likely have a material adverse effect on the spreads between interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. In addition, an increase in interest rates could, among other things, reduce the value of our fixed-rate interest-bearing assets and our ability to realize gains from the sale of such assets.
Interest rates are highly sensitive to many factors, including governmental monetary and tax policies, domestic and international economic and political conditions, and other factors beyond our control. We monitor the spreads between our interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities and may implement hedging strategies to limit the effects of changes in interest rates on our operations, including engaging in interest rate swaps, interest rate caps and other interest rate-related derivative contracts. Such strategies are designed to reduce our exposure, on specific transactions or on a portfolio basis, to changes in cash flows as a result of interest rate movements in the market. We do not enter into derivative contracts for speculative purposes or as a hedge against changes in our credit risk or the credit risk of our borrowers.
While a REIT may utilize derivative instruments to hedge interest rate risk on its liabilities incurred to acquire or carry real estate assets without generating non-qualifying income, use of derivatives for other purposes will generate non-qualified income for REIT income test purposes. This includes hedging asset related risks such as credit and interest rate exposure on our loan assets. As a result our ability to hedge these types of risks is limited. There can be no assurance that our profitability will not be materially adversely affected during any period as a result of changing interest rates.
The following table quantifies the potential changes in annual net income, assuming no change in our interest earning assets or interest bearing liabilities, should interest rates increase or decrease by 10, 50 or 100 basis points or decrease by 10 or 50 basis points, assuming no change in the shape of the yield curve (i.e., relative interest rates). The base interest rate scenario assumes the one-month LIBOR rate of 2.49%0.99% as of March 31, 2019.2020. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimated in the table.

In addition, as of March 31, 2019, $447.62020, $425.2 million of our floating rate loans have a weighted average interest rate floor of 1.1%1.5% and $25.1$37.9 million of our floating rate debt obligations have a weighted average interest rate floor of 0.4%1.5%.


Item 4.    Controls and Procedures
The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Company's Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company's management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. The Company has formed a disclosure committee that is responsible for considering the

materiality of information and determining the disclosure obligations of the Company on a timely basis. The disclosure committee reports directly to the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer.
As of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the disclosure committee and other members of management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(b) or Rule 15d-15. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures are effective to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is: (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms; and (ii) accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure.
There have been no changes during the last fiscal quarter in the Company's internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, a control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that it will detect or uncover failures within the Company to disclose material information otherwise required to be set forth in the Company's periodic reports.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1.    Legal Proceedings
The Company and/or one or more of its subsidiaries is party to various pending litigation matters that are considered ordinary routine litigation incidental to the Company's business as a finance and investment company focused on the commercial real estate industry, including foreclosure-related proceedings. The Company believes it is not a party to, nor are any of its properties the subject of, any pending legal proceeding that would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.


Item 1a.    Risk Factors
In addition to the risk factors discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, you should consider carefully the following in evaluating an investment in the Company's securities. Any of these risks or the occurrence of any one or more of the uncertainties described below could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and market price of the Company's common stock.
The current novel coronavirus, or COVID-19, pandemic or the future outbreak of any other highly infectious or contagious diseases, could materially and adversely impact or cause disruption to our performance, financial condition, results of operations, stock price, cash flows and ability to pay distributions. Further, the pandemic has caused disruptions in the U.S. and global economies and financial markets and created widespread business continuity issues of an as yet unknown magnitude and duration.
The COVID-19 pandemic outbreak has rapidly and dramatically impacted the US and global economies. Many countries, including the United States, have instituted quarantines, mandated business and school closures and restricted travel. The US financial markets have experienced disruption, with heightened stock market volatility and constrained credit conditions within most sectors, including real estate. Many experts predict that the outbreak will trigger a period of global economic slowdown or a global recession. At this time, we cannot predict the extent of the impacts of the COVID-19 crisis on our business. We will continue to monitor its effects on a daily basis and will adjust our operations as necessary.
COVID-19 or another pandemic could have material and adverse effects on our ability to successfully operate due to, among other factors:
a complete or partial closure of, or other operational issues at, one or more of our operating properties resulting from government or tenant action;
the reduced economic activity impacts our tenants' and borrowers' businesses, financial condition and liquidity and may cause one or more of our tenants or borrowers to be unable to meet their obligations to us in full, or at all;
as of March 31, 2020, the entertainment/leisure and hotel sectors represented approximately 19.8% and 5.3%, respectively, of the gross book value of our investments. These sectors have been particularly stressed by the COVID-19 pandemic. One of our entertainment sector net lease tenants, representing approximately 0.7% of the gross book value of our investments as of March 31, 2020 and 0.4% of our revenues for the quarter, declared bankruptcy in April, which may result in the loss of all or a part of the future rent under this lease. There can be no assurance that additional tenant or borrower bankruptcies will not occur in these and other sectors;
the decline in real estate transaction activity and constrained credit conditions may adversely affect our strategies of monetizing legacy assets and scaling SAFE's portfolio as its Manager;
our earnings could be negatively impacted by increased allowances against potential future losses;
deteriorations in our financial condition may cause us to be unable to satisfy financial covenants in our debt obligations. If we are unable to meet our covenants, our lenders may declare us to be in default and require us to repay outstanding borrowings;
potential negative impact on the health of our employees, particularly if a significant number of them are impacted;
difficulty accessing debt and equity capital on attractive terms, or at all, and any disruption and instability in the global financial markets or deteriorations in credit and financing conditions may affect our or our tenants' and borrowers' access to capital necessary to fund business operations or address maturing liabilities on a timely basis and our tenants' or borrowers' ability to meet their obligations to us; and
a deterioration in our and our tenants' or borrowers' ability to operate in affected areas or delays in the supply of products or services to us and our tenants or borrowers from vendors that are needed for our and our tenants' and borrowers' efficient operations.


The rapid development and fluidity of this situation precludes any prediction as to the ultimate adverse impact of COVID-19. Nevertheless, COVID-19 presents material uncertainty and risk with respect to our performance, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
There were no other material changes from the risk factors previously disclosed in our 2018 Annual Report.
