Management Overview
Jason Serrano, Chief Executive Officer and President, commented: “In a challenging quarter with the Fed attempting to regain control of inflation, markets experienced heightened volatility, particularly with respect to interest rates. The volatility combined with a rapidly rising interest rate environment caused the fixed income market to underperform, driving the Company’s undepreciated book value down by 6%. Although the value of many mortgage-related assets fell during the quarter, we were able to strengthen our balance sheet by completing multiple loan securitizations, further protecting the Company against abrupt changes in financing availability while lowering the Company’s cost of funds.
During the quarter, we continued to execute on our strategic plan to generate high portfolio turnover by increasing our allocation to high coupon, short duration residential investor loans that we believe are supported by solid underlying fundamentals. Through our strong proprietary pipelines in this sector, we nearly doubled net investment activity with cash raised organically through a combination of maturity paydowns and financing activity of unencumbered loans. These investments helped push our portfolio yield to the highest level in nearly 10 years. We believe our focus on short duration residential loans and our strong cash position will better enable us to rapidly reposition our portfolio in a higher rate environment and patiently seize on superior market opportunities.”

Reconciliation of Financial Information
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to the results presented in accordance with GAAP, this press release includes certain non-GAAP financial measures, including undepreciated earnings and undepreciated book value per common share. Our management team believes that these non-GAAP financial measures, when considered with our GAAP financial statements, provide supplemental information useful for investors as it enables them to evaluate our current performance using the same metrics that management uses to operate the business. Our presentation of non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures of other companies, who may use different calculations. Because these measures are not calculated in accordance with GAAP, they should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, the financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. Our GAAP financial results and the reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures included in this press release to the most directly comparable financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP should be carefully evaluated.
Undepreciated (Loss) Earnings
Undepreciated (loss) earnings is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure defined as GAAP net (loss) income attributable to Company's common stockholders excluding the Company's share in depreciation expense and lease intangible amortization expense related to operating real estate, net. By excluding these non-cash adjustments from our operating results, we believe that the presentation of undepreciated (loss) earnings provides a consistent measure of our operating performance and useful information to investors to evaluate the effective net return on our portfolio. In addition, we believe that presenting undepreciated (loss) earnings enables our investors to measure, evaluate, and compare our operating performance to that of our peers.

Undepreciated Book Value Per Common Share
Undepreciated book value per common share is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure defined as GAAP book value excluding the Company's share of cumulative depreciation and lease intangible amortization expenses related to operating real estate, net held at the end of the period. By excluding these non-cash adjustments, undepreciated book value reflects the value of the Company’s rental property portfolio at its undepreciated basis.
