Note 1 - Organization and Business Operations
Franklin BSP Realty Trust, Inc. (the "Company") is a real estate finance company that primarily originates, acquires and manages a diversified portfolio of commercial real estate debt investments secured by properties located within and outside the United States. The Company is a Maryland corporation and has made tax elections to be treated as a real estate investment trust (a "REIT") for U.S. federal income tax purposes since 2013.
The Company believes that it has qualified as a REIT and intends to continue to meet the requirements for qualification and taxation as a REIT. Substantially all of the Company's business is conducted through Benefit Street Partners Realty Operating Partnership, L.P. (the “OP”), a Delaware limited partnership. The Company is the sole general partner and directly or indirectly holds all of the units of limited partner interests in the OP. In addition, the Company, through one or more subsidiaries which are treated as a taxable REIT subsidiary (a “TRS”), is indirectly subject to U.S. federal, state and local income taxes.
The Company has no employees. Benefit Street Partners L.L.C. serves as the Company's advisor (the "Advisor") pursuant to an advisory agreement, as amended on August 18, 2021 (the "Advisory Agreement"). The Advisor, an investment adviser registered with the SEC, is a credit-focused alternative asset management firm.
Established in 2008, the Advisor's credit platform manages funds for institutions and high-net-worth investors across various credit funds and complementary strategies including high yield, levered loans, private/opportunistic debt, liquid credit, structured credit and commercial real estate debt. These strategies complement each other as they all leverage the sourcing, analytical, compliance, and operational capabilities that encompass the platform. The Advisor manages the Company's affairs on a day-to-day basis. The Advisor receives compensation fees and reimbursements for services related to the investment and management of the Company's assets and the operations of the Company. The advisor is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Franklin Resources, Inc., which together with its various subsidiaries operates as "Franklin Templeton”.
The Company invests in commercial real estate debt investments, which may include first mortgage loans, subordinated mortgage loans, mezzanine loans and participations in such loans. The Company also originates conduit loans which the Company intends to sell through its TRS into commercial mortgage-backed securities ("CMBS") securitization transactions. Historically this business has focused primarily on CMBS, unsecured REIT debt, collateralized debt obligations ("CDOs") and other securities. As a result of the October 2021 acquisition of Capstead Mortgage Corporation ("Capstead"), the Company acquired and continues to hold a significant portfolio of residential mortgage backed securities (“RMBS”) in the form of residential adjustable-rate mortgage pass-through securities ("ARM Agency Securities") issued and guaranteed by government-sponsored enterprises or by an agency of the federal government. The Company also owns real estate that was either acquired by the Company through foreclosure andor deed in lieu of foreclosure, andor that was purchased for investment, typically subject to triple net leases.
Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Accounting
The Company's unaudited consolidated financial statements and related footnotes have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") for interim financial statements and pursuant to the requirements for reporting on Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X, as appropriate. Accordingly, the consolidated financial statements may not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for annual consolidated financial statements.
These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto as of, and for the year ended December 31, 2021, which are included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on February 25, 2022.
Use of Estimates
GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reported periods. Changes in the economic environment, financial markets and any other parameters used in determining these estimates could cause actual results to differ materially. In the opinion of management, the interim data includes all adjustments, of a normal and recurring nature, necessary for a fair statement of the results for the periods presented. The current period’s results of operations will not necessarily be indicative of results that ultimately may be achieved for the entire year or any subsequent interim periods.

The global coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic has caused economic disruptions and changes to the real estate market. Certain jurisdictions, including those where our corporate headquarters and/or properties that secure our investments, or properties that the Company owns, are located, have at times imposed “stay-at-home” guidelines or orders or other restrictions to help prevent its spread. The effects of COVID-19 may negatively and materially impact significant estimates and assumptions used by the Company including, but not limited to estimates of expected credit losses, valuation of our equity investments and the fair value estimates of the Company's assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, the OP and its subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In determining whether the Company has a controlling financial interest in a joint venture and the requirement to consolidate the accounts of that entity, management considers factors such as ownership interest, authority to make decisions and contractual and substantive participating rights of the other partners or members, as well as whether the entity is a variable interest entity ("VIE") for which the Company is the primary beneficiary.
The Company has determined the OP is a VIE of which the Company is the primary beneficiary. Substantially all of the Company's assets and liabilities are held by the OP.
The Company consolidates all entities that it controls through either majority ownership or voting rights. In addition, the Company consolidates all VIEs of which the Company is considered the primary beneficiary. VIEs are entities in which equity investors (i) do not have 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 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. Non-controlling interest represents the equity of a consolidated joint venture that is not owned by the Company.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of collateralized loan obligations ("CLOs") issued and securitized by wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company. The Company has determined the CLOs are VIEs of which the Company's subsidiary is the primary beneficiary. The assets and liabilities of the CLOs are consolidated in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 810, Consolidation.
Acquisition Expenses
The Company capitalizes certain direct costs relating to loan origination activities. The cost is amortized over the life of the loan and recognized in interest income in the Company's consolidated statements of operations. Acquisition expenses paid on future funding amounts are expensed within the acquisition expenses line in the Company's consolidated statements of operations.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash consists of amounts deposited with high quality financial institutions. These deposits are guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Company up to an insurance limit. Cash equivalents include short-term, liquid investments in money market funds with original maturities of 90 days or less when purchased.
Restricted Cash
Restricted cash primarily consists of cash pledged as margin on repurchase agreements and derivative transactions. The duration of this restricted cash generally matches the duration of the related repurchase agreements or derivative transaction.
Commercial Mortgage Loans
Held for Investment - Commercial mortgage loans that are held for investment purposes and are anticipated to be held until maturity, are carried at cost, net of unamortized acquisition expenses, discounts or premiums and unfunded commitments. Commercial mortgage loans, held for investment purposes, are carried at amortized cost less allowance for credit losses. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis and related discounts, premiums and acquisition expenses on investments are amortized over the life of the investment using the effective interest method. Amortization is reflected as an adjustment to interest income in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. Guaranteed loan commitment fees payable by the borrower upon maturity are accreted over the life of the investment using the effective interest method. The accretion of guaranteed loan commitment fees is recognized in interest income in the Company's consolidated statements of operations.

Held for Sale - Commercial mortgage loans that are intended to be sold in the foreseeable future are reported as held for sale and are transferred at fair value and recorded at the lower of cost or fair value with changes recorded through the statements of operations. Unamortized loan origination costs for commercial mortgage loans held for sale that are carried at the lower of cost or fair value are capitalized as part of the carrying value of the loans and recognized upon the sale of such loans. Amortization of origination costs ceases upon transfer of commercial mortgage loans to held for sale.
Held for Sale, Accounted for Under the Fair Value Option - The fair value option provides an option to elect fair value as an alternative measurement for selected financial assets, financial liabilities, and written loan commitments. The Company has elected to measure commercial mortgage loans held for sale in the Company's TRS under the fair value option. These commercial mortgage loans are included in the Commercial mortgage loans, held for sale, measured at fair value in the consolidated balance sheets. Interest income received on commercial mortgage loans, held for sale, measured at fair value is recorded on the accrual basis of accounting and is included in interest income in the consolidated statements of operations. Costs to originate these investments are expensed when incurred.
Real estate owned
The Company classifies its real estate owned as long-lived assets held for investment or as long-lived assets held for sale. Held for investment assets are stated at cost, as adjusted for any impairment loss, less accumulated depreciation.
Real estate owned is classified as held for sale in the period in which the six criteria under ASC Topic 360, "Property, Plant, and Equipment" are met: (1) we commit to a plan and have the authority to sell the asset; (2) the asset is available for sale in its current condition; (3) we have initiated an active marketing plan to locate a buyer for the asset; (4) the sale of the asset is both probable and expected to qualify for full sales recognition within a period of 12 months; (5) the asset is being actively marketed for sale at a price that is reflective of its current fair value; and (6) we do not anticipate changes to our plan to sell the asset. Held for sale assets are carried at the lower of depreciated cost or estimated fair value, less estimated costs to sell.
Amounts capitalized to real estate owned consist of the cost of acquisition or construction, any tenant improvements or major improvements, betterments that extend the useful life of the related asset, and transaction costs associated with the acquisition of an individual asset that does not qualify as a business combination. All repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred. Additionally, the Company capitalizes interest while the development, or redevelopment, of a real estate owned asset is in progress. No development or redevelopments of real estate owned assets are in progress as of March 31,June 30, 2022.
The Company’s real estate owned assets are depreciated or amortized using the straight-line method over the following useful lives:
Buildings40 years
Furniture, fixtures, and equipment15 years
Site Improvements5 - 25 years
Intangible lease assetsLease term
The Company continually monitors events and changes in circumstances that could indicate that the carrying amounts of the real estate and related intangible assets of either operating properties or properties under construction in which the Company has an ownership interest, either directly or through investments in joint ventures, may not be recoverable. When indicators of potential impairment are present, management assesses whether the respective carrying values will be recovered from the undiscounted future operating cash flows expected from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition for assets held for use, or from the estimated fair values, less costs to sell, for assets held for sale. In the event that the expected undiscounted future cash flows for assets held for use or the estimated fair value, less costs to sell, for assets held for sale do not exceed the respective asset carrying value, management adjusts such assets to the respective estimated fair values and recognizes an impairment loss. Estimated fair values are calculated based on the following information, depending upon availability, in order of preference: (i) recently quoted market prices, (ii) market prices for comparable properties, or (iii) the present value of undiscounted cash flows, including estimated sales value (which is based on key assumptions such as estimated market rents, lease-up periods, estimated lease terms, and capitalization and discount rates) less estimated selling costs.
Real estate owned assets that are probable to be sold within one year are reported as held for sale. Real estate owned assets classified as held for sale are measured at the lower of its carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell. Real estate owned assets are not depreciated or amortized while they are classified as held for sale. Interest and other expenses attributable to the liabilities of a disposal group classified as held for sale continue to be accrued. Upon the disposition of a real estate owned asset, the Company calculates realized gains and losses as net proceeds received less the carrying value of the real estate owned asset. Net proceeds received are net of direct selling costs associated with the disposition of the real estate owned asset.

Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities of Acquired Properties
Upon the acquisition of real properties, the Company records the fair value of properties (plus any related acquisition costs) allocated based on relative fair value as tangible assets, consisting of land and building, and identified intangible assets and liabilities, consisting of the value of above-market and below-market leases and the value of in-place leases, based on their estimated fair values. Substantially all of the Company’s property acquisitions qualify as asset acquisitions under Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 805, Business Combinations.
The estimated fair values of the tangible assets of an acquired property are determined by valuing the property as if it were vacant, and the “as-if-vacant” value is then allocated to land and building based on management’s determination of the estimated fair value of these assets. Management relies on a sales comparison approach using closed land sales and listings in determining the land value, and determines the as-if-vacant estimated fair value of a property using methods similar to those used by independent appraisers. Factors considered by management in performing these analyses include an estimate of carrying costs during the expected lease-up periods considering current market conditions and costs to execute similar leases. In estimating carrying costs, management includes real estate taxes, insurance, and other operating expenses and estimates of lost rental revenue during the expected lease-up periods based on current market demand. Management also estimates the cost to execute similar leases including leasing commissions, legal, and other related costs.
The estimated fair values of above-market and below-market in-place leases are recorded based on the present value (using an interest rate which reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) of the difference between (i) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to the in-place leases and (ii) management’s estimate of market rates for the corresponding in-place leases, measured over a period equal to the remaining terms of the leases, taking into consideration the probability of renewals for any below-market leases. The capitalized above-market and below-market lease values are recorded as intangible lease assets or liabilities and amortized as an adjustment to rental revenues over the remaining terms of the respective leases.
The estimated fair values of in-place leases include an estimate of the direct costs associated with obtaining the acquired or "in place" tenant and estimates of opportunity costs associated with lost rentals that are avoided by acquiring an in-place lease. The amount capitalized as direct costs associated with obtaining a tenant include commissions, tenant improvements, and other direct costs and are estimated based on management’s consideration of current market costs to execute a similar lease. These direct lease origination costs are included in deferred lease costs in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and are amortized to expense over the remaining terms of the respective leases. The value of opportunity costs is calculated using the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to the in-place leases over a market absorption period for a similar lease. These lease intangibles are included in intangible lease assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and are amortized to expense over the remaining terms of the respective leases.
Credit Losses
The allowanceallowances for credit losses required under Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments Credit Losses, isare deducted from the respective loans’ amortized cost basis on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. The allowance for credit losses attributed to unfunded loan commitments is included in Accounts payable and accrued expenses on the consolidated balance sheets.
AllowanceGeneral allowance for credit losses
The general allowance for credit losses for the Company’s financial instruments carried at amortized cost and off-balance sheet credit exposures, such as loans held for investment and unfunded loan commitments represents a lifetime estimate of expected credit losses. Factors considered by the Company when determining the general allowance for credit losses reserve include loan-specific characteristics such as loan-to-value (“LTV”) ratio, vintage year, loan term, property type, occupancy and geographic location, financial performance of the borrower, expected payments of principal and interest, as well as internal or external information relating to past events, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts.
The general allowance for credit losses is measured on a collective (pool) basis when similar risk characteristics exist for multiple financial instruments. If similar risk characteristics do not exist, the Company measures the general allowance for credit losses on an individual instrument basis. The determination of whether a particular financial instrument should be included in a pool can change over time. If a financial asset’s risk characteristics change, the Company evaluates whether it is appropriate to continue to keep the financial instrument in its existing pool or evaluate it individually.

In measuring the general allowance for credit losses for financial instruments including our unfunded loan commitments that share similar risk characteristics, the Company primarily applies a probability of default (“PD”)/loss given default (“LGD”) model for instruments that are collectively assessed, whereby the allowance for credit losses is calculated as the product of PD, LGD and exposure at default (“EAD”). The Company’s model principally utilizes historical loss rates derived from a commercial mortgage backed securities database with historical losses from 1998 to 20212022 provided by a reputable third party, forecasting the loss parameters using a scenario-based statistical approach over a reasonable and supportable forecast period of twelve months, followed by an immediate reversion to average historical losses. For financial instruments assessed on an individual basis, including when it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect the full payment of principal and interest on the instrument, the Company applies a discounted cash flow (“DCF”) methodology.
Specific allowance for credit losses
For financial instruments where, the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty based on the Company’s assessment at the reporting date, and the repayment is expected to be provided substantially through the operation or sale of the collateral, the Company may elect to use as a practical expedient the fair value of the collateral atas of the reporting date when determining thea specific allowance for credit losses.
For financial instruments which the Company identifies reasonable doubt as to whether the collection of contractual components can be satisfied, a loan specific allowance analysis is performed. Determining whether a specific allowance for a loan is required entails 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 have a specific allowance, the specific allowance is recorded as a component of our Current Expected Credit Loss ("CECL") reserve by applying the practical expedient for collateral dependent loans. The CECL reserve is assessed on an individual basis for such 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 plans, loan sponsorship, actions of other lenders, and other factors deemed relevant by the Company. Actual losses, if any, could ultimately differ materially from these estimates. The Company only expects to write-off specific allowances if and when such amounts are deemed non-recoverable. Non-recoverability is generally determined at the time a loan is settled, or in the case of foreclosure, when the underlying asset is sold. Non-recoverability may also be concluded if, in the Company's determination, it is deemed certain that all amounts due will not be collected. If a loan is determined to be impaired based on the above considerations, management records a write-off through a charge to the "Specific allowance for credit losses" and the respective loan balance.
Risk Rating
In developing the allowanceallowances for credit losses for its loans held for investment, the Company performs a comprehensive analysis of its loan portfolio and assigns risk ratings to loans that incorporate management's current judgments about their credit quality based on all known and relevant internal and external factors that may affect collectability, using similar factors as those in developing the allowance for credit losses. 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. Risk rating categories range from "1" to "5" with "1" representing the lowest risk of loss and "5" representing the highest risk of loss with the ratings updated quarterly. At the time of origination or purchase, loans held for investment are ranked as a “2” and will move accordingly going forward based on the ratings which are defined as follows:
1.Very Low Risk- Investment exceeding fundamental performance expectations and/or capital gain expected. Trends and risk factors since time of investment are favorable.
2.Low Risk- Performing consistent with expectations and a full return of principal and interest expected. Trends and risk factors are neutral to favorable.
3.Average Risk- Performing investments requiring closer monitoring. Trends and risk factors show some deterioration.
4.High Risk/Delinquent/Potential for Loss- Underperforming investment with the potential of some interest loss but still expecting a positive return on investment. Trends and risk factors are negative.
5.Impaired/Defaulted/Loss Likely- Underperforming investment with expected loss of interest and some principal.
The Company also considers qualitative and environmental factors, including, but not limited to, economic and business conditions, nature and volume of the loan portfolio, lending terms, volume and severity of past due loans, concentration of credit and changes in the level of such concentrations in its determination of the allowance for credit losses.

Troubled Debt Restructuring (“TDR”)
The Company classifies an individual financial instrument as a TDR when it has a reasonable expectation that the financial instrument’s contractual terms will be modified in a manner that grants concession to the borrower who is experiencing financial difficulty. Concessions could include term extensions, payment deferrals, interest rate reductions, principal forgiveness, forbearance, or other actions designed to maximize the Company’s collection on the financial instrument. The Company determines the allowance for credit losses for financial instruments that are TDRs individually.
Real Estate Securities
Available For Sale
On the acquisition date, all of the Company’s commercial real estate securities were classified as available for sale ("AFS") and carried at fair value, and subsequently any unrealized gains or losses are recognized as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income or loss. The Company may elect the fair value option for its real estate securities, and as a result, any unrealized gains or losses on such real estate securities will be recorded in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. No such election was made as of March 31,June 30, 2022. Related discounts, premiums and acquisition expenses on investments are amortized over the life of the investment using the effective interest method. Amortization is reflected as an adjustment to interest income in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. The Company uses the specific identification method in determining the cost relief for real estate securities sold. Realized gains and losses from the sale of real estate securities are included in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations.
AFS real estate securities which have experienced a decline in the fair value below their amortized cost basis (i.e., impairment) are evaluated each reporting period to determine whether the decline in fair value is due to credit-related factors. Any impairment that is not credit-related is recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income, while credit-related impairment is recognized as an allowance on the consolidated balance sheets with a corresponding adjustment on the consolidated statements of operations. If the Company intends to sell an impaired real estate security or more likely than not will be required to sell such a security before recovering its amortized cost basis, the entire impairment amount is recognized in the consolidated statements of operations with a corresponding adjustment to the security’s amortized cost basis.
The Company analyzes the AFS security portfolio on a periodic basis for credit losses at the individual security level using the same criteria described above for those amortized cost financial assets subject to an allowance for credit losses including but not limited to; performance of the underlying assets in the security, borrower financial resources and investment in collateral, collateral type, credit ratings, project economics and geographic location as well as national and regional economic factors.
The non-credit loss component of the unrealized loss within the Company’s AFS portfolio is recognized as an adjustment to the individual security’s asset balance with an offsetting entry to accumulated other comprehensive income in the consolidated balance sheets.

Trading
In the merger with Capstead, the Company acquired a portfolio of residential mortgage pass-through securities consisting primarily of adjustable-rate mortgage ("ARM") securities issued and guaranteed by government-sponsored enterprises, either Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, or by an agency of the federal government, Ginnie Mae. Together these securities are referred to as "ARM Agency Securities" and are classified as "trading".
ARM Agency Securities are recorded at fair value on the balance sheet with trading gains and losses on the paydowns and sales of these securities recorded in the Company's consolidated statements of operations. Fair values fluctuate with current and projected changes in interest rates, prepayment expectations and other factors such as market liquidity conditions and the perceived credit quality of agency securities. Judgment is required to interpret market data and develop estimated fair values, particularly in circumstances of deteriorating credit quality and market liquidity.
Repurchase Agreements
Commercial mortgage loans and real estate securities sold under repurchase agreements have been treated as collateralized financing transactions because the Company maintains effective control over the transferred securities. Commercial mortgage loans and real estate securities financed through a repurchase agreement remain on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets as an asset and cash received from the purchaser is recorded as a liability. Interest paid in accordance with repurchase agreements is recorded in interest expense on the Company's consolidated statements of operations.

Deferred Financing Costs
The deferred financing costs related to the Company's various Master Repurchase Agreements as well as certain prepaid subscription costs are included in Prepaid expenses and other assets on the consolidated balance sheets. Deferred financing cost on the Company's collateralized loan obligations ("CLO") are netted against the Company's CLO payable in the Collateralized loan obligations on the consolidated balance sheets. Deferred financing costs are amortized over the terms of the respective financing agreement using the effective interest method and included in interest expense on the Company's consolidated statements of operations. Unamortized deferred financing costs are generally expensed when the associated debt is refinanced or repaid before maturity.
Share Repurchase Program
Until the merger with Capstead, the Company had a Share Repurchase Program (the "SRP") that enabled stockholders to sell their shares to the Company, subject to certain conditions. Under the SRP, when a stockholder requested a redemption and the redemption was approved by the board of directors, the Company reclassified such obligation from equity to a liability based on the settlement value of the obligation. Shares repurchased under the SRP have the status of authorized but unissued shares.
Offering and Related Costs
Since 2018, the Company has from time to time offered, and may in the future offer, shares of the Company’s common stock or one or more series of its preferred stock, including its Series C convertible preferred stock (the “Series C Preferred Stock,”) and, former Series D convertible preferred stock (the “Series D Preferred Stock”), and Series H convertible preferred stock (the “Series H Preferred Stock”) in private placements exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. In connection with these offerings, the Company incurs various offering costs. These offering costs include but are not limited to legal, accounting, printing, mailing and filing fees, and diligence expenses of broker-dealers. Offering costs for the common stock are recorded in the Company’s stockholders’ equity, while the offering costs for the Series C Preferred Stock and Series D Preferred Stock are included within Series C Preferred Stock and Series D Preferred Stock, respectively, on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Offering costs for the Series H Preferred Stock were expensed to the Company's consolidated statement of operations.

Equity Incentive Plan
The Company maintains the Franklin BSP Realty Trust, Inc. 2021 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2021 Incentive Plan”), pursuant to which the Company may, from time to time, grant equity awards to the Company’s directors, officers and employees (if it ever has employees), employees of the Advisor and its affiliates, or certain of the Company’s consultants, advisors or other service providers to the Company or an affiliate of the Company. The 2021 Incentive Plan, which is administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors, provides for the grant of awards of share options, share appreciation rights, restricted shares, restricted share units, deferred share units, unrestricted shares, dividend equivalent rights, performance shares and other performance-based awards, other equity-based awards, LTIP units and cash bonus awards.
In January 2022, the Company began issuingissued for the first time under the 2021 Incentive Plan awards of restricted stock units ("RSUs") to its officers and certain other personnel of the Advisor who provide services to the Company. These awards are service-based and vest in equal annual installments beginning on the anniversary of the date of grant over a period of three years, subject to continuing service. One share of the Company’s common stock will be issued for each unit that vests. These awards also grant non-forfeitable dividend equivalent rights equal to the cash dividend paid in the ordinary course on a common share to the Company's common shareholders. Upon termination for any reason, all unvested RSUs will be forfeited by the grantee, who will be given no further rights to such RSUs.
Restricted Share Plan
The Company also has an Amended and Restated Employee and Director Incentive Restricted Share Plan (the "RSP"), which provides the Company with the ability to grant awards of restricted shares to the Company’s directors, officers and employees (if the Company ever has employees), employees of the Advisor and its affiliates, employees of entities that provide services to the Company, directors of the Advisor or of entities that provide services to the Company, the Advisor and its affiliates. The total number of common shares granted under the RSP shall not exceed 5% of the Company’s authorized common shares, and in any event, will not exceed 4.0 million shares (as such number may be adjusted for stock splits, stock distributions, combinations and similar events). The RSP will expire on February 7, 2023.
Restricted share awards entitle the recipient to receive common shares from the Company under terms that provide for vesting over a specified period of time or upon attainment of pre-established performance objectives. Such awards would typically be forfeited with respect to the unvested shares upon the termination of the recipient’s employment or other relationship with the Company. Restricted shares may not, in general, be sold or otherwise transferred until restrictions are removed and the shares have vested. Holders of restricted shares may receive cash distributions prior to the time that the restrictions on the shares have lapsed. Any distributions payable in common shares shall be subject to the same restrictions as the underlying restricted shares. The fair value of the restricted share awards are expensed over the vesting period.

Distribution Reinvestment Plan
Pursuant to the terms of the Company's distribution reinvestment plan ("DRIP") in effect until December 17, 2021, stockholders had the option to elect to reinvest distributions by purchasing shares of common stock in lieu of receiving cash. No dealer manager fees or selling commissions were paid with respect to shares purchased pursuant to the DRIP. The purchase price for shares purchased through the DRIP was the lesser of (i) the Company’s most recent estimated per share NAV, and (ii) the Company’s GAAP book value per share. The Company had the right to amend any aspect of the DRIP or terminate the DRIP with ten days’ notice to participants. Shares issued under the DRIP were recorded to equity in the consolidated balance sheets in the period distributions are declared.
On December 17, 2021, the Company amended and restated the DRIP (the “Amended DRIP”) in recognition of the listing of the Company’s common stock on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”). Shares of common stock purchased through the Amended DRIP for dividend reinvestments are supplied either directly by the Company as newly issued shares or via purchases by the DRIP administrator of shares of common stock on the open market, at the Company’s option. If the shares are purchased in the open market, the purchase price will be the average price per share of shares purchased; if the shares are purchased directly from the Company, the purchase price will generally be the average of the daily high and low sales prices for a share of common stock reported by the NYSE on the dividend payment date authorized by the Company’s board of directors. The Company may suspend, modify or terminate the Amended DRIP at any time in its sole discretion.

Income Taxes
The Company has conducted its operations to qualify as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes beginning with its taxable year ended December 31, 2013. As a REIT, if the Company meets certain organizational and operational requirements and distributes at least 90% of its "REIT taxable income" (determined before the deduction of dividends paid and excluding net capital gains) to its stockholders in a year, it will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax to the extent of the income that it distributes. However, even if the Company qualifies for taxation as a REIT, it may be subject to certain state and local taxes on income in addition to U.S. federal income and excise taxes on its undistributed income. The Company, through its TRSs, is indirectly subject to U.S. federal, state and local income taxes. The Company’s TRSs are not consolidated for U.S. federal income tax purposes, but are instead taxed as C corporations. For financial reporting purposes, the TRSs are consolidated and a provision for current and deferred taxes is established for the portion of earnings recognized by the Company with respect to its interest in its TRSs. Total income tax provision/(benefit)/provision for the three months ended March 31,June 30, 2022 and March 31,June 30, 2021 was $(24) thousand$(0.1) million and $2.0$0.3 million, respectively.
The Company uses a more-likely-than-not threshold for recognition and derecognition of tax positions taken or to be taken in a tax return. The Company has assessed its tax positions for all open tax years beginning with December 31, 2017 and concluded that there were no uncertainties to be recognized. The Company’s accounting policy with respect to interest and penalties related to tax uncertainties is to classify these amounts as provision for income taxes.
The Company utilizes the TRSs to reduce the impact of the prohibited transaction tax and to avoid penalty for the holding of assets not qualifying as real estate assets for purposes of the REIT asset tests. Any income associated with a TRS is fully taxable because the TRS is subject to federal and state income taxes as a domestic C corporation based upon its net income.
Derivatives and Hedging Activities
In the normal course of business, the Company is exposed to the effect of interest rate changes and may undertake a strategy to limit these risks through the use of derivatives.  The Company uses derivatives primarily to economically hedge against interest rates, CMBS spreads and macro market risk in order to minimize volatility. The Company may use a variety of derivative instruments that are considered conventional, including but not limited to: Treasury note futures and credit derivatives on various indices including CMBX and CDX.
The Company recognizes all derivatives on the consolidated balance sheets at fair value.  The Company does not designate derivatives as hedges to qualify for hedge accounting for financial reporting purposes and therefore any net payments under, or fluctuations in the fair value of these derivatives have been recognized currently in unrealized (gain)/loss on derivative instruments in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. The Company records derivative asset and liability positions on a gross basis with any collateral posted with or received from counterparties recorded separately within Restricted cash on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Certain derivatives that the Company has entered into are subject to master netting agreements with its counterparties, allowing for netting of the same transaction, in the same currency, on the same date.

Per Share Data
The Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock (when it was outstanding), and Series FH Preferred Stock are each considered a participating security and the Company calculates basic earnings per share using the two-class method. The Company’s dilutive earnings per share calculation is computed using the more dilutive result of the treasury stock method, assuming the participating security is a potential common share, or the two-class method, assuming the participating security is not converted. The Company calculates basic earnings per share by dividing net income applicable to common stock for the period by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding for that period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur from shares outstanding if potential shares of common stock with a dilutive effect have been issued in connection with the restricted stock plan or upon conversion of the outstanding shares of Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock (when it was outstanding) and Series DH Preferred Stock, except when doing so would be anti-dilutive.

Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
In March 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-02 "Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures," or ASU 2022-02. ASU 2022-02 eliminates the accounting guidance for troubled debt restructurings and requires disclosure of current-period gross write-offs by year of loan origination. Additionally, ASU 2022-02 updates the accounting for credit losses under ASC 326 and adds enhanced disclosures with respect to loan refinancing and restructuring in the form of principal forgiveness, interest rate concessions, other-than-insignificant payment delays, or term extensions when the borrower is experiencing financial difficulties. ASU 2022-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, and early adoption is permitted. The amendments should be applied prospectively, however for the recognition and measurement of troubled debt restructurings, the entity has the option to apply a modified retrospective transition method, resulting in a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings in the period of adoption. We are currently evaluating what impact, if any ASU 2022-02 will have on our consolidated financial statements.

During the quarter ended June 30, 2022, the Company identified a commercial mortgage loan, held for investment secured by a portfolio of 24 retail properties, that was assigned a risk rating of “5” due to certain conditions that negatively impacted the underlying collateral property’s cash flows. Since the loan was considered a collateral-dependent asset under GAAP, a specific allowance for credit losses of $28.4 million was recorded based on the difference between the Company’s estimation of the fair value of the underlying collateral property, less costs to sell, and the loan’s amortized cost basis. As of June 30, 2022, the loan has a fully funded outstanding principal balance of $113.2 million, and an amortized cost of $82.2 million.

Non-performing loan carrying value at end of period$167,701 $57,075 
As of March 31,June 30, 2022, the Company had 2 loans with a total amortized cost basis of $167.7 million designated as non-performing status. One loan is for a hotel property located in New York, NY, which was placed on non-accrual status in 2019 and had an amortized cost basis of $57.1 million as of June 30, 2022. NaN specific allowance for credit losses has been recorded on the loan. The Company did 0t recognize any interest income on the non-accrual loan during the quarter ended June 30, 2022. In addition, during the quarter ended June 30, 2022, the Company originated a loan with a fully funded outstanding principal balance of $113.2 million collateralized by a portfolio of retail properties in various locations throughout the United States. The loan has been assigned a risk rating of “5” and concurrently, the Company elected to apply a practical expedient for collateral dependent assets in which the allowance for credit losses is calculated as the difference between the estimated fair value of the underlying collateral, less estimated cost to sell, and the amortized cost basis of the individual loan. At June 30, 2022, the Company recorded a specific allowance for credit losses of $28.4 million on the loan. Further, during the quarter ended June 30, 2022, the Company designated the loan as non-performing and placed the loan on cost recovery status by ceasing the recognition of interest income. Any contractual amounts received are accounted for under the cost-recovery method, until the loan qualifies for return to accrual status. During the quarter ended June 30, 2022, the Company received $1.2 million in interest on this loan which reduces the amortized cost of the loan.
As of December 31, 2021, the Company had 1 loan, the hotel property in New York City, with a total cost basiscarrying value of $57.1 million, on non-accrual status fordesignated as non-performing, which there was no relatedhad 0 specific allowance for credit losses.

1
Very Low Risk - Investment exceeding fundamental performance expectations and/or capital gain expected. Trends and risk factors since time of investment are favorable.
2
Low Risk - Performing consistent with expectations and a full return of principal and interest expected. Trends and risk factors are neutral to favorable.
3
Average Risk - Performing investments requiring closer monitoring. Trends and risk factors show some deterioration.
4
High Risk/Delinquent/Potential For Loss - Underperforming investment with the potential of some interest loss but still expecting a positive return on investment. Trends and risk factors are negative.
5
Impaired/Defaulted/Loss Likely - Underperforming investment with expected loss of interest and some principal.

The maturity of the Company's ARM Agency Securities is directly affected by prepayments of principal on the underlying mortgage loans. Consequently actual maturities willmay be significantly shorter than the portfolio’s June 30, 2022 weighted average contractual maturity of 278187 months.
The Company's ARM Agency Securities are backed by residential mortgage loans that have coupon interest rates that adjust at least annually to more current interest rates or begin doing so after an initial fixed-rate period. After the initial fixed-rate period, if applicable, mortgage loans underlying ARM securities typically either (i) adjust annually based on specified margins over the one-year London interbank offered rate (“LIBOR”) or the one-year Constant Maturity U.S. Treasury Note Rate (“CMT”), (ii) adjust semiannually based on specified margins over six-month LIBOR or the six-month Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”), or (iii) adjust monthly based on specified margins over indices such as one-month LIBOR, the Eleventh District Federal Reserve Bank Cost of Funds Index, or over a rolling twelve month average of the one-year CMT index, usually subject to periodic and lifetime limits, or caps, on the amount of such adjustments during any single interest rate adjustment period and over the contractual term of the underlying loans.

Repurchase Agreements - Real Estate Securities Classified As Trading
The Company pledges its real estate securities classified as trading as collateral for repurchase agreements with commercial banks and other financial institutions. Repurchase arrangements entered into by the Company involve the sale and a simultaneous agreement to repurchase the transferred assets at a future date and are accounted for as financings. The Company maintains the beneficial interest in the specific securities pledged during the term of each repurchase arrangement and receives the related principal and interest payments.
The terms and conditions of repurchase agreements are negotiated on a transaction-by-transaction basis when each such agreement is initiated or renewed. The amount borrowed is generally equal to the fair value of the securities pledged, as determined by the lending counterparty, less an agreed-upon discount, referred to as a “haircut.” Interest rates are generally fixed based on prevailing rates corresponding to the terms of the borrowings. Interest may be paid monthly or at the termination of an agreement at which time the Company may enter into a new agreement at prevailing haircuts and rates with the same lending counterparty or repay that counterparty and negotiate financing with a different lending counterparty. None of the Company’s lending counterparties are obligated to renew or otherwise enter into new agreements at the conclusion of existing agreements. In response to declines in fair value of pledged securities due to changes in market conditions or the publishing of monthly security pay-down factors, lending counterparties typically require the Company to post additional securities as collateral, pay down borrowings or fund cash margin accounts with the counterparties in order to re-establish the agreed-upon collateral requirements. These actions are referred to as margin calls. Conversely, in response to increases in fair value of pledged securities, the Company routinely margin calls its lending counterparties in order to have previously pledged collateral returned.
Repurchase agreements (and related pledged collateral, including accrued interest receivable), classified by collateral type and remaining maturities, and related weighted average borrowing rates as of the indicated dates were as follows (dollars in thousands):

Note 13 - Fair Value of Financial Instruments
GAAP establishes a hierarchy of valuation techniques based on the observability of inputs used in measuring financial instruments at fair values. GAAP establishes market-based or observable inputs as the preferred source of values, followed by valuation models using management assumptions in the absence of market inputs. The three levels of the hierarchy are described below:
Level I - Inputs are unadjusted, quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date.
Level II - Inputs (other than quoted prices included in Level I) are either directly or indirectly observable for the asset or liability through correlation with market data at the measurement date and for the duration of the instrument’s anticipated life.
Level III - Unobservable inputs that reflect the entity's own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in the pricing of the asset or liability and are consequently not based on market activity, but rather through particular valuation techniques.
The determination of where an asset or liability falls in the above hierarchy requires significant judgment and factors specific to the asset or liability. In instances where the determination of the fair value measurement is based on inputs from different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the entire fair value measurement falls is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The Company evaluates its hierarchy disclosures each quarter and depending on various factors, it is possible that an asset or liability may be classified differently from quarter to quarter.

The Company has implemented valuation control processes to validate the fair value of the Company's financial instruments measured at fair value including those derived from pricing models. These control processes are designed to assure that the values used for financial reporting are based on observable inputs wherever possible. In the event that observable inputs are not available, the control processes are designed to assure that the valuation approach utilized is appropriate and consistently applied and the assumptions are reasonable.
Financial Instruments Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis
Real estate securities classified as trading, RMBS, are measured at fair value by utilizing a third party pricing service to obtain a current estimated liquid price of the securities. The RMBS are classified in Level II of the fair value hierarchy.
Commercial mortgage loans, held for sale, measured at fair value in the Company's TRS are initially recorded at transaction proceeds, which are considered to be the best initial estimate of fair value. The Company engaged the services of a third party independent valuation firm to determine fair value of certain investments held by the Company. Fair value is determined using a discounted cash flow model that primarily considers changes in interest rates and credit spreads, weighted average life and current performance of the underlying collateral. Commercial mortgage loans, held for sale, measured at fair value that are originated in the last month of the reporting period are held and marked to the transaction proceeds. The Company classified the commercial mortgage loans, held for sale, measured at fair value as Level III.
Other real estate investments, measured at fair value on the consolidated balance sheets are valued using unobservable inputs. The Company engaged the services of a third party independent valuation firm to determine fair value of certain investments, including preferred equity investments, held by the Company. Fair value is determined using a discounted cash flow model that primarily considers changes in interest rates and credit spreads, weighted average life and current performance of the underlying collateral. The Company classified the other real estate investments, measured at fair value as Level III.
The fair value for Treasury note futures is derived using market prices. Treasury note futures trade on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (“CME”). The instruments are a variety of recently issued 10-year U.S. Treasury notes. The future contracts are liquid and are centrally cleared through the CME. Treasury note futures are generally categorized in Level II of the fair value hierarchy.
The fair value for credit default swaps and interest rate swaps contracts are derived using pricing models that are widely accepted by marketplace participants. Credit default swaps and interest rate swaps are traded in the OTC market. The pricing models take into account multiple inputs including specific contract terms, interest rate yield curves, interest rates, credit curves, recovery rates, and/or current credit spreads obtained from swap counterparties and other market participants. Most inputs into the models are not subjective as they are observable in the marketplace or set per the contract. Valuation is primarily determined by the difference between the contract spread and the current market spread. The contract spread (or rate) is generally fixed and the market spread is determined by the credit risk of the underlying debt or reference entity. If the underlying indices are liquid and the OTC market for the current spread is active, credit default swaps and interest rate swaps are categorized in Level II of the fair value hierarchy. If the underlying indices are illiquid and the OTC market for the current spread is not active, credit default swaps are categorized in Level III of the fair value hierarchy. The credit default swaps and interest rate swaps are generally categorized in Level II of the fair value hierarchy.
The fair value of exchange-traded swap agreements hedging RMBS repurchase agreements are calculated using the net discounted future fixed cash payments and the discounted future variable cash receipts which are based on expected future interest rates derived from observable market interest rate curves. The Company also incorporates both its own nonperformance risk and its counterparties’ nonperformance risk in determining fair value. In considering the effect of nonperformance risk, the Company considered the impact of netting and credit enhancements, such as collateral postings and guarantees, and has concluded that counterparty risk is not significant to the overall valuation. Interest rate swap agreements hedging the Company's RMBS repurchase agreements are measured at fair value on a recurring basis primarily using Level II inputs. The fair value of these derivatives are calculated including accrued interest and net of variation margin amounts received or paid through the exchange, resulting in separately presenting on the balance sheet a significantly reduced fair value amount representing the unsettled fair value of these derivatives.
A review of the fair value hierarchy classification is conducted on a quarterly basis. Changes in the type of inputs may result in a reclassification for certain assets or liabilities. The Company's policy with respect to transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy is to recognize transfers into and out of each level as of the beginning of the reporting period. There were no material transfers between levels within the fair value hierarchy for the period ended March 31,June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

The Company did not hold any unsecured-debt related swaps at quarter-end June 30, 2022.
The Company's portfolio of derivatives additionally hedges the variability of the underlying benchmark interest rate of current and forecasted 30- to 90-day repurchase agreements. The Company attempts to mitigate exposure to higher interest rates primarily by entering into pay-fixed, receive-variable, interest rate swap agreements for terms between eighteen months and three years. From an economic perspective, this hedge relationship establishes a relatively stable fixed rate on related debt because the variable-rate payments received on the swap agreements offset a significant portion of the interest accruing on the debt, leaving the fixed-rate swap payments as the Company’s effective borrowing rate. Additionally, changes in fair value of these derivatives tend to offset opposing changes in fair value of the Company’s residential mortgage investments that can occur in response to changes in market interest rates.
During the first quarter ofthree and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company entered into swap agreements with notional amounts totaling $1.1$200 million and $1.3 billion, respectively, requiring fixed-rate interest payments averaging 1.10%2.84% and 1.36%. No swaps had matured during this time. InDuring the first quarter ofthree and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company terminated $3.3$1.8 billion and $5.4 billion notional amount of swapsderivatives related to the ARM portfolio, respectively, requiring fixed-rate interest payments averaging 0.25%0.75% and 0.57%. Subsequent to March 31,At June 30, 2022, the Company terminated $0.8 billion notional amount of swaps requiring fixed-rate interest payments averaging 0.28%.

Interest0Interest rate swap agreements are measured at fair value on a recurring basis primarily using Level Two Inputs in accordance with ASU 2010-06, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820). In determining fair value estimates for swaps, The Company utilizes the standard methodology of netting the discounted future fixed cash payments and the discounted future variable cash receipts which are based on expected future interest rates derived from observable market interest rate curves. The Company also incorporates both its own nonperformance risk and its counterparties’ nonperformance risk in determining fair value. In considering the effect of nonperformance risk, the Company considered the impact of netting and credit enhancements, such as collateral postings and guarantees, and has concluded that counterparty risk is not significant to the overall valuation.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the accompanying financial statements of Franklin BSP Realty Trust, Inc. the notes thereto and other financial information included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as well as our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on February 25, 2022.
As used herein, the terms "the Company," "we," "our" and "us" refer to Franklin BSP Realty Trust, Inc., a Maryland corporation and, as required by context, to Benefit Street Partners Realty Operating Partnership, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, which we refer to as the "OP," and to its subsidiaries. We are externally managed by Benefit Street Partners L.L.C. (our "Advisor").
Certain statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are forward-looking statements. Those statements include statements regarding the intent, belief or current expectations of the Company and members of our management team, as well as the assumptions on which such statements are based, and generally are identified by the use of words such as "may," "will," "seeks," "anticipates," "believes," "estimates," "expects," "plans," "intends," "should" or similar expressions. Actual results may differ materially from those contemplated by such forward-looking statements. Further, forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and we undertake no obligation to update or revise forward-looking statements to reflect changed assumptions, the occurrence of unanticipated events or changes to future operating results over time, unless required by law.
Our forward-looking statements are subject to various risks and uncertainties. Accordingly, there are or will be important factors that could cause actual outcomes or results to differ materially from those indicated in these statements, and thus our investors should not place undue reliance on these statements. We believe these factors include but are not limited to those described under the section entitled “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, as such factors may be updated from time to time in our periodic filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), which are accessible on the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov. These factors include:
our business and investment strategy;
our ability to make investments in a timely manner or on acceptable terms;
the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic;
current credit market conditions and our ability to obtain long-term financing for our investments in a timely manner and on terms that are consistent with what we project when we invest;
the effect of general market, real estate market, economic and political conditions, including changing interest rate environments and inflation;
our ability to make scheduled payments on our debt obligations;
our ability to generate sufficient cash flows to make distributions to our stockholders;
our ability to generate sufficient debt and equity capital to fund additional investments;
our ability to refinance our existing financing arrangements;
our ability to recover unpaid principal on defaulted loans;
our ability to successfully and in a timely matter reinvest the dividend, interest, principal and sales proceeds from the assets acquired in the merger with Capstead Mortgage Corporation in a manner consistent with our investment strategies;
adverse changes in the value of the assets acquired in the merger with Capstead Mortgage Corporation prior to the time such assets are monetized and reinvested in in a manner consistent with our investment strategies;
the degree and nature of our competition;
the availability of qualified personnel;
our ability to recover or mitigate estimated losses on non-performing assets;
we may be deemed to be an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "Investment Company Act"), and thus subject to regulation under the Investment Company Act;
our ability to maintain our qualification as a real estate investment trust ("REIT"); and
other factors set forth under the caption "Risk Factors" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.
Currently, one of the most significant factors that could cause actual outcomes to differ materially from our forward-looking statements is the continuing adverse effect of the current pandemic of the novel coronavirus, or COVID-19, on the financial condition, operating results and cash flows of the Company, its borrowers, the real estate market, the global economy and the financial markets. The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic continues to impact us and our borrowers will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence, including the scope, severity and duration of the pandemic, including resurgences of the virus and its variants, the speed, effectiveness and adoption of vaccine (including boosters) and treatment developments and the direct and indirect economic effects of the pandemic and containment measures, among others.

Overview
The Company is a Maryland corporation and has made tax elections to be treated as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes since 2013. The Company, through one or more subsidiaries which are each treated as a taxable REIT subsidiary ("TRS"), is indirectly subject to U.S. federal, state and local income taxes. We commenced business in May 2013. We primarily originate, acquire and manage a diversified portfolio of commercial real estate debt investments secured by properties located within and outside of the United States. Commercial real estate debt investments may include first mortgage loans, subordinated mortgage loans, mezzanine loans and participations in such loans. Substantially all of our business is conducted through the OP, a Delaware limited partnership. We are the sole general partner and directly or indirectly hold all of the units of limited partner interests in the OP.
The Company has no employees. We are managed by our Advisor pursuant to an Advisory Agreement, as amended on August 18, 2021 (the "Advisory Agreement"). Our Advisor manages our affairs on a day-to-day basis. The Advisor receives compensation and fees for services related to the investment and management of our assets and our operations.
The Advisor, an SEC-registered investment adviser, is a credit-focused alternative asset management firm. The Advisor manages funds for institutions and high-net-worth investors across various credit funds and complementary strategies including high yield, levered loans, private / opportunistic debt, liquid credit, structured credit and commercial real estate debt. These strategies complement each other as they all leverage the sourcing, analytical, compliance, and operational capabilities that encompass the Advisor’s robust platform. The Advisor is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Franklin Resources, Inc., which together with its various subsidiaries operates as “Franklin Templeton.”
The Company invests in commercial real estate debt investments, which may include first mortgage loans, subordinated mortgage loans, mezzanine loans and participations in such loans. The Company also originates conduit loans which the Company intends to sell through its TRS into commercial mortgage-backed securities ("CMBS") securitization transactions at a profit. Historically this business has focused primarily on CMBS, unsecured REIT debt, collateralized debt obligations ("CDOs") and other securities. As a result of the October 2021 acquisition of Capstead Mortgage Corporation (“Capstead”), the Company acquired and continues to hold a significant portfolio of residential mortgage backed securities (“RMBS”) in the form of residential adjustable-rate mortgage pass-through securities (“ARM Agency Securities”) issued and guaranteed by government-sponsored enterprises or by an agency of the federal government. The Company also owns real estate which it acquires through foreclosure and deed in lieu of foreclosure, and which it purchases for investment, typically subject to triple net leases.

Critical Accounting Estimates
Our financial statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"), which requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Critical accounting estimates are those that require the application of management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgments on matters that are inherently uncertain and that may change in subsequent periods. In preparing the financial statements, management has made estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. In preparing the financial statements, management has utilized available information, including our past history, industry standards and the current economic environment, among other factors, in forming its estimates and judgments, giving due consideration to materiality. Actual results may differ from these estimates. In addition, other companies may utilize different estimates, which may impact the comparability of our results of operations to those of companies in similar businesses.
During the threesix months ended March 31,June 30, 2022, there were no material changes to our critical accounting estimates as compared to the critical accounting estimates disclosed in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contained in Part II, Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

(1) Our floating rate loan agreements contain the contractual obligation for the borrower to maintain an interest rate cap to protect against rising interest rates. In a simple interest rate cap, the borrower pays a premium for a notional principal amount based on a capped interest rate (the “cap rate”). When the floating rate exceeds the cap rate, the borrower receives a payment from the cap counterparty equal to the difference between the floating rate and the cap rate on the same notional principal amount for a specified period of time. When interest rates rise, the value of an interest rate cap will increase, thereby reducing the borrower's exposure to rising interest rates.
(2) Loan to value percentage is from metrics at origination. Predevelopment construction loans at origination will not have an LTV and therefore is nil.
(3) Loan was designated as non-performing and placed on cost recovery status during the second quarter of 2022. As such, the LTV at origination is not relevant.
(4) Total commitment on the loan was $41.0 million but was unfunded as of June 30, 2022.

Historically this business has focused primarily on CMBS, unsecured REIT debt, CDO notes and other securities. As a result of the October 2021 acquisition of Capstead, the Company acquired and continues to hold a significant portfolio of ARM Agency Securities. The Company intends to reinvesthas substantially sold down this portfolio and holds only $270.4 million of ARM Agency Securities as of June 30, 2022. The Company has been reinvesting the cash and proceeds from dividends, interest, repayments and sales of these assets into its other segments and does not intend to continue to invest in ARM Agency Securities or RMBS in general. As of March 31,June 30, 2022, all of the real estate securities in this segment were ARM Agency Securities acquired in the Capstead acquisition.

RealizedTrading Gain/Loss on Real Estate Securities Available for Sale
For the three months ended March 31,June 30, 2022 there was no realized gain/loss on our real estate securities, available for sale, measured at fair value. For the three months ended March 31, 2021 our real estate securities, available for sale, measured at fair valuewe had a realizedtrading loss of $1.1$22.5 million included within the consolidated statements of operations. TheDuring the three months ended June 30, 2022, the loss iswas attributable to 8$12.8 million of losses due to sales of the ARM Agency Securities, $7.6 million of losses due to change in market values of these securities and $2.1 million of losses due to mortgage prepayments. For the three months ended June 30, 2021, we had a trading loss of $0.3 million, attributable to one sale of a CMBS securitiessecurity.
Provision / Benefit for Credit losses - Current Expected Credit Loss ("CECL") allowance, net
Our CECL allowance increased by $32.5 million during the three months ended March 31,June 30, 2022 compared to a decrease of $1.5 million during three months ended June 30, 2021. The increase in CECL allowance recorded during 2022 was largely due to $28.4 million of specific reserve on one asset and $4.1 million of general reserve. The decrease in CECL allowance in 2021 was attributable to the reversal of general reserve.
For the three months ended June 30, 2022, the increase in general reserve is primarily due to an increase in our portfolio of a more pessimistic view of the macroeconomic scenario utilized for the CECL model. Comparatively, for quarter ended June 30, 2021, the decrease in general reserve was driven by new loan originations that were partially offset by portfolio seasoning and accelerated loan repayments.
As discussed in "Part II, Item 1. Legal Proceedings" of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, during the quarter ended June 30, 2022, the Company originated a loan for $113.2 million related to a portfolio of net lease retail properties located throughout the country. Subsequent to origination of the loan, the Company determined that the borrower had provided the Company numerous falsified and forged documents in connection with the underwriting of the loan, that significantly and fraudulently inflated the purported value of the collateral properties. Based on the new knowledge of the lease terms, the loan was assigned a risk rating of “5” and the loan was considered to be “collateral-dependent.” Accordingly, we elected to apply a practical expedient in which the specific allowance for credit losses is calculated as the difference between the fair value of the underlying collateral and the carrying value of the individual loan. At June 30, 2022, we recorded a specific allowance for credit losses of $28.4 million on the loan.

Realized Gain/Loss on Commercial Mortgage Loans Held for Sale
Realized gain on commercial mortgage loans, held for sale, measured at fair value for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was $0.1 million compared to a realized gain of $13.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The $13.1 million decrease in realized gain was due to the difference in proceeds received between the three sales of fixed-rate commercial real estate loans into the CMBS securitization market during the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the two sales during the six months ended June 30, 2021. Proceeds from sale were $238.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to $256.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021.
Trading Gain/Loss
For the six months ended June 30, 2022 we had a trading loss of $111 million included within the consolidated statements of operations. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the loss was attributable to $36.9 million of losses due to sales of the ARM Agency Securities, $62.2 million of losses due to change in market values of these securities and $11.9 million of losses due to mortgage prepayments. For the six months ended June 30, 2021 we had a trading loss of $1.4 million, attributable to nine sales of CMBS securities.
Provision / Benefit for Credit losses - CECL allowance, net
Our CECL allowance increased by $31.6 million during the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to a decrease of $3.8 million during six months ended June 30, 2021. The increase in CECL allowance recorded during 2022 was largely due to $28.4 million of specific reserve on one asset and $3.1 million of general reserve. The decrease in CECL allowance in 2021 was attributable to the reversal of general reserve.
For the six months ended June 30, 2022, the increase in general reserve is primarily due to an increase in our portfolio and election of a more pessimistic view of the macroeconomic scenario utilized for the CECL model. Comparatively, for the six months ended June 30, 2021, the decrease in general reserve was driven by new loan originations that were partially offset by portfolio seasoning and accelerated loan repayments.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Overview
Our expected material cash requirements over the next twelve months and thereafter are comprised of (i) contractually obligated expenditures, including payments of principal and interest and contractually-obligated fundings on our loans; (ii) other essential expenditures, including operating and administrative expenses and dividends paid in accordance with REIT distribution requirements; and (iii) opportunistic expenditures, including new loans.
Our contractually obligated expenditures primarily consist of payment obligations under the debt financing arrangements which are set forth below, including in the table under “Contractual Obligations and Commitments.”
We expect to use additional debt and equity financing as a source of capital. Our board of directors currently intends to operate at a leverage level of between one to three times book value of equity. However, our board of directors may change this target without shareholder approval. We believe that the recent listing of our common stock will improve our access to capital through public offerings of our securities. We anticipate that our debt and equity financing sources and our anticipated cash generated from operations will be adequate to fund our anticipated uses of capital.
In addition to our current mix of financing sources, we may also access additional forms of financings, including credit facilities, securitizations, public and private, secured and unsecured debt issuances by us or our subsidiaries, or through capital recycling initiatives whereby we sell certain assets in our portfolio and reinvest the proceeds in assets with more attractive risk-adjusted returns.

Repurchase Agreements, Commercial Mortgage Loans
As of March 31,June 30, 2022 we have repurchase facilities with JPMorgan Chase Bank, National Association (the "JPM Repo Facility"), Barclays Bank PLC (the "Barclays Revolver Facility" and the "Barclays Repo Facility"), Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (the "WF Repo Facility"), and Credit Suisse AG (the "CS Repo Facility" and together with JPM Repo Facility, WF Repo Facility, Barclays Revolver Facility and Barclays Repo Facility, the "Repo Facilities").
The Repo Facilities are financing sources through which we may pledge one or more mortgage loans to the financing entity in exchange for funds typically at an advance rate of between 65% to 80% of the principal amount of the mortgage loan being pledged.
We expect to use the advances from these Repo Facilities to finance the acquisition or origination of eligible loans, including first mortgage loans, subordinated mortgage loans, mezzanine loans and participation interests therein.

Table of Contents
The Repo Facilities generally provide that in the event of a decrease in the value of our collateral, the lenders can demand additional collateral. Should the value of our collateral decrease as a result of deteriorating credit quality, resulting margin calls may cause an adverse change in our liquidity position.

Repurchase Agreements - Real Estate Securities Classified As Trading
As a result of the Capstead merger which closed on October 19, 2021, the Company acquired a significant portfolio of ARM Agency Securities which the Company accounts for as real estate securities classified as trading. The Company pledges its real estate securities classified as trading as collateral for repurchase agreements with commercial banks and other financial institutions. Repurchase arrangements entered into by the Company involve the sale and a simultaneous agreement to repurchase the transferred assets at a future date and are accounted for as financings. The Company maintains the beneficial interest in the specific securities pledged during the term of each repurchase arrangement and receives the related principal and interest payments.
The terms and conditions of repurchase agreements are negotiated on a transaction-by-transaction basis when each such agreement is initiated or renewed. The amount borrowed is generally equal to the fair value of the securities pledged, as determined by the lending counterparty, less an agreed-upon discount, referred to as a “haircut.” Interest rates are generally fixed based on prevailing rates corresponding to the terms of the borrowings. Interest may be paid monthly or at the termination of an agreement at which time the Company may enter into a new agreement at prevailing haircuts and rates with the same lending counterparty or repay that counterparty and negotiate financing with a different lending counterparty. None of the Company’s lending counterparties are obligated to renew or otherwise enter into new agreements at the conclusion of existing agreements. In response to declines in fair value of pledged securities due to changes in market conditions or the publishing of monthly security pay-down factors, lending counterparties typically require the Company to post additional securities as collateral, pay down borrowings or fund cash margin accounts with the counterparties in order to re-establish the agreed-upon collateral requirements. These actions are referred to as margin calls. Conversely, in response to increases in fair value of pledged securities, the Company routinely margin calls its lending counterparties in order to have previously pledged collateral returned.

As of March 31,June 30, 2022, the Company’s repurchase agreements collateralized by RMBS totaled $1.66 billion$240 million with 92 counterparties at average rates of 0.39%1.63%, before the effects of currently-paying interest rate swap agreements. Average repurchase agreements outstanding were $3.06 billion$732 million in the firstsecond quarter of 2022. Average repurchase agreements outstanding differed from respective year-endperiod-end balances during the indicated periods primarily due to changes in portfolio levels and differences in the timing of portfolio acquisitions relative to portfolio runoff and asset sales. Interest paid on repurchase agreements, including related Derivative cash flows, totaled $1.26$5.2 million during the threesix months ended March 31,June 30, 2022.
The Company finances its residential mortgage investments primarily by borrowing under repurchase arrangements, the terms and conditions of which are negotiated on a transaction-by-transaction basis, when each such agreement is initiated or renewed.
Future agreements are dependent upon the willingness of lenders to participate in the financing of mortgage investments, lender collateral requirements and the lenders’ determination of the fair value of the investments pledged as collateral, which fluctuates with changes in interest rates and liquidity conditions within the commercial banking and mortgage finance industries. None of our repurchase agreement counterparties are obligated to renew or otherwise enter into new agreements at the conclusion of existing borrowings. Repurchase agreements averaged $3.06 billion during the first quarter of 2022 and ended the year at $1.66 billion, all maturing within 90 days. Average repurchase agreements can differ from period-end balances for a number of reasons including portfolio growth or contraction, as well as differences in the timing of portfolio acquisitions relative to portfolio runoff.
To help mitigate exposure to rising short-term interest rates, we economically hedge the portfolio of repurchase agreements using derivatives supplemented with longer-maturity repurchase agreements when available at attractive rates and terms. At March 31,June 30, 2022, the Company held $1.50 billion$100 million notional amount of portfolio financing-related interest rate swap agreements with contract expirations occurring at various dates through the FirstSecond quarter 2024 and a weighted average expiration of 10.623.9 months. At March 31,June 30, 2022, we expect to have no net cash obligations related to repurchase agreement-related interest rate swap agreements after considering the variable-rate payments owed to us under the agreements’ terms based on market interest rate expectations as of quarter-end.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Distributable Earnings and Run-Rate Distributable Earnings
Beginning in the third quarter of 2021 to more appropriately reflect the principal purpose of the measure, "modified funds from operations ("MFFO")" or "funds from operations ("FFO")" was relabeled "Distributable Earnings", a non-GAAP financial measure. Distributable Earnings is a non-GAAP measure, which we define as GAAP net income (loss), adjusted for (i) non-cash CLO amortization acceleration and amortization over our expected useful life of our CLOs, (ii) unrealized gains and losses on loans, derivatives and ARMs, including CECL reserves and impairments, (iii) non-cash equity compensation expense, (iv) depreciation and amortization, (v) non-cash incentive fee accruals, (vi) certain other non-cash items, and (vii) impairments of acquisition assets related to the Capstead merger. Further, Run-Rate Distributable Earnings, a non-GAAP measure, presents Distributable Earnings before trading and derivative gain/loss on residential adjustable-rate mortgage securities.
We believe that Distributable Earnings and Run-Rate Distributable Earnings providesprovide meaningful information to consider in addition to our GAAP results. We believe Distributable Earnings is a useful financial metric for existing and potential future holders of our common stock as historically, overtime, Distributable Earnings has been an 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 common stock. 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 one of the performance metrics we consider when declaring our dividends. We believe Run-Rate Distributable Earnings is a useful financial metric because it presents the Distributable Earnings of our core businesses, net of the impacts of the trading and derivative gain/loss on the residential adjustable-rate mortgage securities we acquired from Capstead that we are currently in the process of liquidating from our portfolio.
Distributable Earnings doesand Run-Rate Distributable Earnings do not represent net income (loss) and should not be considered as an alternative to GAAP net income (loss). Our methodology for calculating Distributable Earnings and Run-Rate Distributable Earnings may differ from the methodologies employed by other companies and thus may not be comparable to the Distributable Earnings reported by other companies.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.
Credit Risk
Our investments are subject to a high degree of credit risk. Credit risk is the exposure to loss from loan defaults. Default rates are subject to a wide variety of factors, including, but not limited to, borrower financial condition, property performance, property management, supply/demand factors, construction trends, consumer behavior, regional economics, interest rates, the strength of the U.S. economy, and other factors beyond our control. All loans are subject to a certain probability of default. We manage credit risk through the underwriting process, acquiring our investments at the appropriate discount to face value, if any, and establishing loss assumptions. We also carefully monitor the performance of the loans, as well as external factors that may affect their value.

Table of Contents
Capital Market Risk
We are exposed to risks related to the debt capital markets, and our related ability to finance our business through borrowings under repurchase obligations 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 capital markets to inform our decisions on the amount, timing and terms of capital we raise.

TableMarket uncertainty and volatility may cause fluctuation in market value of Contents
The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in extreme volatility in a variety of global markets, including the real estate-related debt markets.certain asset classes within our portfolio. We have and may continue to receive margin calls from our lenders as a result of the decline in the market value of the assets pledged by us to our lenders under our repurchase agreements and warehouse credit facilities, and if we fail to resolve such margin calls when due by payment of cash or delivery of additional collateral, the lenders may exercise remedies including demanding payment by us of our aggregate outstanding financing obligations and/or taking ownership of the loans or other assets securing the applicable obligations and liquidating them at inopportune prices.
Market Risk
As a result of the closing of the Capstead merger on October 19, 2021 we hold a significant amount of ARM Agency securities.Securities. Changes in the level of interest rates and spreads can significantly impact the value of these assets. We may utilize a variety of financial instruments in order to limit the adverse effects of interest rates on our results.
Interest Rate Risk
Our market risk arises primarily from interest rate risk relating to interest rate fluctuations. Many factors including governmental monetary and tax policies, domestic and international economic and political considerations and other factors that are beyond our control contribute to interest rate risk. To meet our short and long-term liquidity requirements, we may borrow funds at fixed and variable rates. Our interest rate risk management objectives are to limit the impact of interest rate changes in earnings and cash flows and to lower our overall borrowing costs. To achieve these objectives, from time to time, we may enter into interest rate hedge contracts such as swaps, collars and treasury lock agreements in order to mitigate our interest rate risk with respect to various debt instruments. While hedging activities may insulate us against adverse changes in interest rates, they may also limit our ability to participate in benefits of lower interest rates with respect to our portfolio of investments with fixed interest rates. We do not have any foreign denominated investments, and thus, we are not exposed to foreign currency fluctuations.
As of March 31,June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, our portfolio included 163171 and 161 variable rate investments, respectively, based on LIBOR and SOFR (or "indexing rates") for various terms. Borrowings under our repurchase agreements are also based on LIBOR. The following table quantifies the potential changes in interest income net of interest expense should interest rates increase by 50 or 100 basis points or decrease by 25 basis points, assuming that our current balance sheet was to remain constant and no actions were taken to alter our existing interest rate sensitivity. The changes in the portfolio for each basis points increase/decrease is a change from the base scenario.

Real Estate Risk
The market values of commercial mortgage assets are subject to volatility and may be affected adversely by a number of factors, including, but not limited to, the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, national, regional and local economic conditions (which may be adversely affected by industry slowdowns and other factors); local real estate conditions; changes or continued weakness in specific industry segments; and demographic factors. In addition, decreases in property values reduce the value of the collateral and the potential proceeds available to a borrower to repay the underlying loans, which could also cause us to suffer losses.

Loan Fraud Lawsuit
On July 26, 2022, the Company (through a subsidiary) filed a lawsuit in the District Court of Dallas County, Texas, against, among others, the borrower, the individual sponsor of the borrower, and the guarantors under a first priority mortgage loan that the Company, along with a separate fund affiliated with the Company's external manager, originated in April 2022. The original principal balance of the Company’s loan is $113.2 million. The loan is secured by a portfolio of twenty-four properties that are net leased to Walgreens (the “Collateral Properties”). As described in more detail in the complaint filed in Dallas County, in July 2022, the Company determined that the borrower had provided the Company with numerous falsified and forged documents in connection with the underwriting of the loan. Such documentation significantly and fraudulently inflated the purported value of the Collateral Properties by misrepresenting the rent rates and maturity dates of the Walgreens leases at the Collateral Properties, among other things. On July 27, 2022, the court issued a temporary restraining order freezing the assets of the borrower, the borrower’s sponsor and his parents, and any proceeds from our loan, pending the next scheduled legal proceeding in August 2022. The Company has also reported the fraud to criminal authorities and is assisting such authorities with their consideration of the matter. The Company intends to pursue all available legal remedies as set forth in the complaint against any party determined to have been involved in, or that improperly benefited from, the scheme.
