Note 2—Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

Basis of Presentation—The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10-01 of Regulation S-X for interim financial statements. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("GAAP") for complete financial statements. These unaudited consolidated financial statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 (the "Annual Report").

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

In the opinion of management, the accompanying consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods presented. Such operating results may not be indicative of the expected results for any other interim periods or the entire year. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified in the Company's consolidated financial statements and the related notes to conform to the current period presentation.

Principles of Consolidation—The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company, its wholly owned subsidiaries, controlled partnerships and VIEs for which the Company is the primary beneficiary. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company's involvement with VIEs affects its financial performance and cash flows primarily through amounts recorded in "Operating lease income," "Interest income," "Earnings from equity method investments," "Real estate expense" and "Interest expense" in the Company's consolidated statements of operations. The Company has provided no financial support to those VIEs that it was not previously contractually required to provide.

Note 3—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The following paragraph describes the impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements from the adoption of Accounting Standards Updates ("ASUs") on January 1, 2020.

The Company adopted ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments ("ASU 2016-13"), as amended, on January 1, 2020 using the modified retrospective approach method. Under the modified retrospective approach, the Company recorded a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings by increasing its allowance for loan losses and recording an initial allowance for losses on net investment in leases. Periods presented that are prior to the adoption date of January 1, 2020 will not be adjusted. ASU 2016-13 replaced the incurred loss impairment methodology with a methodology that reflects a current expected credit loss ("Expected Loss"). ASU 2016-13 impacted all of the Company’s investments held at amortized cost, which included its loans (including unfunded loan commitments), financing receivables, net investment in leases and held-to-maturity debt securities. Upon adoption of ASU 2016-13 on January 1, 2020, the Company recorded an increase to its allowance for loan losses of $3.3 million and an initial allowance for losses on net investment in leases of $9.1 million, both of which were recorded as a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings. Subsequent increases or decreases in the allowance for loan losses or the allowance for losses on net investment in leases will be charged to "Provision for (recovery of) loan losses" and "Provision for (recovery of) losses on net investment in leases," respectively, in the Company's consolidated statements of operations. Refer to "Significant Accounting Policies" below for more information on how the Company determines its allowance for loan losses and its allowance for losses on net investment in leases.

Significant Accounting Policies

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

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

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

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

For the Company's net investment in leases and financings that resulted from the acquisition of properties that did not qualify as sale leaseback transactions, the Company analyzed historical loss rates for lessors from tenants with a credit rating similar to the Company's tenant at these properties. The Company also utilized third-party market information as well as market data from Trepp which forecasted economic trends, including interest and unemployment rates, to assist in developing a probability of default and loss given default to calculate the Company's Expected Loss. The Company utilized the third-party market information to support the Expected Loss the Company calculated by analyzing the historical loss rates for lessors from tenants with a credit rating similar to the Company's tenant.

The Company considers a loan or sales-type lease to be non-performing and places it on non-accrual status at such time as: (1) it becomes 90 days delinquent; (2) it has a maturity default; or (3) management determines it is probable that it will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan or sales-type lease. Non-accrual loans or sales-type leases are returned to accrual status when they have become contractually current and management believes all amounts contractually owed will be received. The Company will record a specific allowance if the Company determines that the collateral fair value less costs to sell is less than the carrying value of a collateral-dependent asset. The specific allowance is increased (decreased) through "Provision for (recovery of) loan losses" or "Provision for losses on net investment in leases" in the Company's consolidated statements of operations and is decreased by charge-offs. During delinquency and the foreclosure process, there are typically numerous points of negotiation with the borrower or tenant as the Company works toward a settlement or other alternative resolution, which can impact the potential for repayment or receipt of collateral. The Company's policy is to charge off a loan when it determines, based on a variety of factors, that all commercially reasonable means of recovering the loan balance have been exhausted. This may occur at different times, including when the Company receives cash or other assets in a pre-foreclosure sale or takes control of the underlying collateral in full satisfaction of the loan upon foreclosure or deed-in-lieu, or when the Company has otherwise ceased significant collection efforts. The Company considers

circumstances such as the foregoing to be indicators that the final steps in the loan collection process have occurred and that a loan is uncollectible. At this point, a loss is confirmed and the loan and related allowance will be charged off.

The Company made the accounting policy election to record accrued interest on its loan portfolio separate from its loans receivable and other lending investments and to exclude accrued interest from its amortized cost basis disclosures (refer to Note 7). As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, accrued interest was $5.1 million and $4.2 million, respectively, and is recorded in "Accrued interest and operating lease income receivable, net" on the Company's consolidated balance sheets. The Company places loans on non-accrual status once the loan becomes 90 days delinquent and reverses any accrued interest as a reduction to interest income at such time. As such, the Company elected the practical expedient to not record an allowance against accrued interest receivable. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company did not reverse any accrued interest on its loan portfolio.

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

New Accounting Pronouncements—In March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform ("ASU 2020-04"). ASU 2020-04 contains practical expedients for reference rate reform related activities that impact debt, leases, derivatives and other contracts. The guidance in ASU 2020-04 is optional and may be elected over time as reference rate reform activities occur. In March 2020, the Company elected to apply the hedge accounting expedients related to probability and the assessments of effectiveness for future LIBOR-indexed cash flows to assume that the index upon which future hedged transactions will be based matches the index on the corresponding derivatives. Application of these expedients preserves the presentation of derivatives consistent with past presentation. The Company continues to evaluate the impact of the guidance and may apply other elections as applicable as additional changes in the market occur.

Note 5—Net Investment in Leases

In May 2019, the Company entered into a transaction with an operator of bowling entertainment venues, consisting of the purchase of nine bowling centers for $56.7 million, of which seven were acquired from the lessee for $44.1 million, and a commitment to invest up to $55.0 million in additional bowling centers over the next several years. The new centers were added to the Company's existing master leases with the tenant. In connection with this transaction, the maturities of the master leases were extended by 15 years to 2047.

(lower risk) to 5 (higher risk), are based on judgments, which are inherently uncertain, and there can be no assurance that actual performance will be similar to current expectation. The Company designates loans as non-performing at such time as: (1) the loan becomes 90 days delinquent; (2) the loan has a maturity default; or (3) management determines it is probable that we will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan. All non-performing loans are placed on non-accrual status and income is only recognized in certain cases upon actual cash receipt.

(2)During the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company identified an observable price change in an equity security held by the Company as evidenced by an orderly private issuance of similar securities by the same issuer. In accordance with ASC 321, the Company remeasured its equity investment at fair value and recognized a mark-to-market gain of $9.9 million in "Other income" in the Company's consolidated statements of operations.

Safehold Inc.—Safehold Inc. ("SAFE") is a publicly-traded company formed by the Company primarily to acquire, own, manage, finance and capitalize ground leases. Ground leases generally represent ownership of the land underlying commercial real estate projects that is net leased by the fee owner of the land to the owners/operators of the real estate projects built thereon ("Ground Leases"). As of June 30, 2020, the Company owned approximately 65.4% of SAFE's common stock outstanding.

In January 2019, the Company purchased 12.5 million newly designated limited partnership units (the "Investor Units") in SAFE's operating partnership ("SAFE OP"), at a purchase price of $20.00 per unit, for a total purchase price of $250.0 million. The purpose of the investment was to allow SAFE to fund additional Ground Lease acquisitions and originations. Each Investor Unit received distributions equivalent to distributions declared and paid on one share of SAFE's common stock. The Investor Units had no voting rights. They had limited protective consent rights over certain matters such as amendments to the terms of the Investor Units that would adversely affect the Investor Units. In May 2019, after the approval of SAFE's stockholders, the Investor Units were exchanged for shares of SAFE's common stock on a one-for-one basis. Following the exchange, the Investor Units were retired.

In connection with the Company's purchase of the Investor Units, it entered into a Stockholder's Agreement with SAFE on January 2, 2019. The Stockholder's Agreement:

•limits the Company's discretionary voting power to 41.9% of the outstanding voting power of SAFE's common stock until its aggregate ownership of SAFE common stock is less than 41.9%;

•requires the Company to cast all of its voting power in favor of three director nominees to SAFE's board who are independent of each of the Company and SAFE for three years;

•subjects the Company to certain standstill provisions for two years;

•restricts the Company's ability to transfer shares of SAFE common stock issued in exchange for Investor Units, or "Exchange Shares," for one year after their issuance;

•prohibits the Company from transferring shares of SAFE common stock representing more than 20% of the outstanding SAFE common stock in one transaction or a series of related transactions to any person or group, other than pursuant to a widely distributed public offering, unless SAFE's other stockholders have participation rights in the transaction; and

•provides the Company certain preemptive rights.

In March 2020, the Company acquired 1.7 million shares of SAFE's common stock in a private placement for $80.0 million.

A wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company is the external manager of SAFE and is entitled to a management fee. In addition, the Company is also the external manager of a venture in which SAFE is a member. Following are the key terms of the management agreement:

•The Company receives a fee equal to 1.0% of total SAFE equity (as defined in the management agreement) up to $1.5 billion; 1.25% of total SAFE equity (for incremental equity of $1.5 billion - $3.0 billion); 1.375% of total SAFE equity (for incremental equity of $3.0 billion - $5.0 billion); and 1.5% of total SAFE equity (for incremental equity over $5.0 billion);

•Fee to be paid in cash or in shares of SAFE common stock, at the discretion of SAFE's independent directors;

•The stock is locked up for two years, subject to certain restrictions;

•There is no additional performance or incentive fee;

•The management agreement is non-terminable by SAFE through June 30, 2023, except for cause; and

•Automatic annual renewals thereafter, subject to non-renewal upon certain findings by SAFE's independent directors and payment of termination fee equal to three times the prior year's management fee.

During the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company recorded $3.2 million and $1.5 million, respectively, of management fees pursuant to its management agreement with SAFE. During the six months ended June 30,

2020 and 2019, the Company recorded $6.0 million and $3.1 million, respectively, of management fees pursuant to its management agreement with SAFE.

The Company is also entitled to receive certain expense reimbursements, including for the allocable costs of its personnel that perform certain legal, accounting, due diligence tasks and other services that third-party professionals or outside consultants otherwise would perform. The Company has elected not to charge in full certain of the expense reimbursements while SAFE is growing its portfolio. During the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company recognized $1.3 million and $0.5 million, respectively, of expense reimbursements pursuant to its management agreement with SAFE. During the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company recognized $2.5 million and $1.1 million, respectively, of expense reimbursements pursuant to its management agreement with SAFE.

The Company has an exclusivity agreement with SAFE pursuant to which it agreed, subject to certain exceptions, that it will not acquire, originate, invest in, or provide financing for a third party’s acquisition of, a Ground Lease unless it has first offered that opportunity to SAFE and a majority of its independent directors has declined the opportunity.

Following is a list of investments that the Company has transacted with SAFE, all of which were approved by the Company's and SAFE's independent directors, for the periods presented:

In August 2017, the Company committed to provide a $24.0 million loan to the ground lessee of a Ground Lease originated at SAFE.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company recorded $0.5 million and $0.9 million, respectively, of interest income on the loan.

In October 2017, the Company closed on a 99-year Ground Lease and a $80.5 million construction financing commitment to support the ground-up development of a to-be-built luxury multi-family project in San Jose, CA. The transaction includes a combination of: (i) a newly created Ground Lease and a $7.2 million leasehold improvement allowance, which was fully funded as of June 30, 2020; and (ii) a $80.5 million leasehold first mortgage. As of June 30, 2020, $52.9 million of the leasehold first mortgage was funded.

The Company entered into a forward purchase contract with SAFE under which SAFE would acquire the Ground Lease in November 2020 for approximately $34.0 million.

In May 2018, the Company provided a $19.9 million leasehold mortgage loan to the ground lessee of a Ground Lease originated at SAFE. The loan was for the acquisition of two multi-tenant office buildings in Atlanta, GA. The loan was repaid in full in November 2019 and during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company recorded $0.5 million and$1.1 million, respectively, of interest income on the loan.

In January 2019, the Company committed to provide a $13.3 million loan to the ground lessee of a Ground Lease originated at SAFE.

The Net Lease Venture II has a right of first offer on all new net lease investments (excluding Ground Leases) originated by the Company. Net Lease Venture II's investment period ends in June 2021. Net Lease Venture II is a voting interest entity and the Company has an equity interest in the venture of approximately 51.9%. The Company does not have a controlling interest in Net Lease Venture II due to the substantive participating rights of its partner. The Company accounts for its investment in Net Lease Venture II as an equity method investment and is responsible for managing the venture in exchange for a management fee and incentive fee. During the three months ended June 30, 2020

(1)Intangible assets, net includes above market and in-place lease assets and lease incentives related to the acquisition of real estate assets. Accumulated amortization on intangible assets, net was $39.3 million and $33.4 million as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. The amortization of above market leases and lease incentive assets decreased operating lease income in the Company's consolidated statements of operations by $0.3 million and $0.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and $0.7 million and $1.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. These intangible lease assets are amortized over the remaining term of the lease. The amortization expense for in-place leases was $2.6 million and $2.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and $5.3 million and $4.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. These amounts are included in "Depreciation and amortization" in the Company's consolidated statements of operations. As of June 30, 2020, the weighted average amortization period for the Company's intangible assets was approximately 17.1 years.

(2)Right-of-use lease assets relate primarily to the Company's leases of office space and certain of its ground leases. Right-of use lease assets initially equal the lease liability. The lease liability (see table below) equals the present value of the minimum rental payments due under the lease discounted at the rate implicit in the lease or the Company's incremental secured borrowing rate for similar collateral. For operating leases, lease liabilities were discounted at the Company's weighted average incremental secured borrowing rate for similar collateral estimated to be 5.1% and the weighted average lease term is 8.8 years. For finance leases, lease liabilities were discounted at a weighted average rate implicit in the lease of 5.5% and the weighted average lease term is 97.5 years. Right-of-use assets for finance leases are amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease and are recorded in "Depreciation and amortization" in the Company's consolidated statements of operations. During the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company recognized $2.0 million and $1.0 million, respectively, in "Interest expense" and $0.4 million and $0.2 million, respectively, in "Depreciation and amortization" in its consolidated statement of operations relating to finance leases. During the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company recognized $4.1 million and $1.3 million, respectively, in "Interest expense" and $0.7 million and $0.2 million, respectively, in "Depreciation and amortization" in its consolidated statement of operations relating to finance leases. For operating leases, rent expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease and is recorded in "General and administrative" and "Real estate expense" in the Company's consolidated statements of operations (refer to Note 3). During the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company recognized $1.2 million and $0.9 million, respectively, in "General and administrative" and $0.9 million and $0.6 million, respectively, in "Real estate expense" in its consolidated statement of operations relating to operating leases. During the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company recognized $2.2 million and $1.8 million, respectively, in "General and administrative" and $1.7 million and $1.8 million, respectively, in "Real estate expense" in its consolidated statement of operations relating to operating leases.

(3)Other assets primarily includes prepaid expenses and deposits for certain real estate assets.

(4)Accumulated amortization of leasing costs was $2.4 million and $3.3 million as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.

(5)Accumulated depreciation on corporate furniture, fixtures and equipment was $13.7 million and $13.1 million as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.

Senior Term Loan—In June 2018, the Company amended its senior term loan (the "Senior Term Loan") to increase the amount of the loan to $650.0 million, reduce the interest rate to LIBOR plus 2.75% and extend its maturity to June 2023. The Senior Term Loan is secured by pledges of equity of certain subsidiaries that own a defined pool of assets. The Senior Term Loan permits substitution of collateral, subject to overall collateral pool coverage and concentration limits, over the life of the facility. The Company may make optional prepayments, subject to prepayment fees, and is required to repay 0.25% of the principal amount each quarter.

Revolving Credit Facility—In September 2019, the Company amended its secured revolving credit facility (the "Revolving Credit Facility") to increase the maximum capacity to $350.0 million, extend the maturity date to September 2022 and make certain other changes. Outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility are secured by a pledge of the equity interests in the Company's subsidiaries that own a defined pool of assets. Borrowings under this credit facility bear interest at a floating rate indexed to one of several base rates plus a margin which adjusts upward or downward based upon the Company's corporate credit rating, ranging from 1.0% to 1.5% in the case of base rate loans and from 2.0% to 2.5% in the case of LIBOR loans. In addition, there is an undrawn credit facility commitment fee that ranges from 0.25% to 0.45%, based on corporate credit ratings. At maturity, the Company may convert outstanding borrowings to a one year term loan which matures in quarterly installments through September 2023. As of June 30, 2020, based on the Company's borrowing base of assets, had the ability to draw $350.0 million without pledging any additional assets to the facility.

Unsecured Notes—In September 2019, the Company issued $675.0 million principal amount of 4.75% senior unsecured notes due October 2024. Proceeds from the offering, together with cash on hand, were used to repay in full the $400.0 million principal amount outstanding of the 4.625% senior unsecured notes due September 2020 and the $275.0 million principal amount outstanding of the 6.50% senior unsecured notes due July 2021. In November 2019, the Company issued an additional $100.0 million principal amount of 4.75% senior unsecured notes due October 2024 at 102% of par, representing a yield to maturity of 4.29%.

In December 2019, the Company issued $550.0 million principal amount of 4.25% senior unsecured notes due August 2025. Proceeds from the offering were used to redeem the $375.0 million principal amount outstanding ($110.5 million was redeemed in January 2020) of the 6.00% senior unsecured notes due April 2022, repay a portion of the borrowings outstanding under the Senior Term Loan and pay related premiums and expenses in connection with the transaction.

During the six months ended June 30, 2020, repayments of unsecured notes prior to maturity resulted in losses on early extinguishment of debt of $4.1 million.

Debt Covenants

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

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

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

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

Note 13—Derivatives

The Company's use of derivative financial instruments has historically been limited to the utilization of interest rate swaps, interest rate caps and foreign exchange contracts. The principal objective of such financial instruments is to minimize the risks and/or costs associated with the Company's operating and financial structure and to manage its exposure to interest rates and foreign exchange rates. The Company may have derivatives that are not designated as hedges because they do not meet the strict hedge accounting requirements. Although not designated as hedges, such derivatives are entered into to manage the Company's exposure to interest rate movements and other identified risks.

The total carrying value of the Series J Preferred Stock prior to redemption was $193.5 million, net of discounts and fees, and was recorded in "Additional paid-in-capital" and "Convertible Preferred Stock Series J, liquidation preference $50.00 per share" on the Company's consolidated balance sheet prior to the conversion.

The Company had the following series of Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock outstanding as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019:


				Cumulative Preferential Cash Dividends⁽¹⁾⁽²⁾
Series	Shares Issued and Outstanding (in thousands)	Par Value		Liquidation Preference⁽³⁾		Rate per Annum		Annual Dividend Per Share		Carrying Value (in thousands)

________________________________________

(1)Holders of shares of the Series D, G and I preferred stock are entitled to receive dividends, when and as declared by the Company's Board of Directors, out of funds legally available for the payment of dividends. Dividends are cumulative from the date of original issue and are payable quarterly in arrears on or before the 15th day of each March, June, September and December or, if not a business day, the next succeeding business day. Any dividend payable on the preferred stock for any partial dividend period will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. Dividends will be payable to holders of record as of the close of business on the first day of the calendar month in which the applicable dividend payment date falls or on another date designated by the Company's Board of Directors for the payment of dividends that is not more than 30 nor less than 10 days prior to the dividend payment date.

(2)The Company declared and paid dividends of $4.0 million, $3.1 million and $4.7 million on its Series D, G and I Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock during both the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019. The Company declared and paid dividends of $4.5 million on its Series J Convertible Perpetual Preferred Stock during the six months ended June 30, 2019. The character of the 2019 dividends was 100% capital gain distribution, of which 34.01% represented unrecaptured section 1250 gain. There are no dividend arrearages on any of the preferred shares currently outstanding.

(3)The Company may, at its option, redeem the Series G and I Preferred Stock, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time, for cash at a redemption price equal to 100% of the liquidation preference of $25.00 per share, plus accrued and unpaid dividends, if any, to the redemption date.

Dividends—To maintain its qualification as a REIT, the Company must annually distribute, at a minimum, an amount equal to 90% of its taxable income, excluding net capital gains, and must distribute 100% of its taxable income (including net capital gains) to eliminate corporate federal income taxes payable by the REIT. The Company has recorded NOLs and may record NOLs in the future, which may reduce its taxable income in future periods and lower or eliminate entirely the Company's obligation to pay dividends for such periods in order to maintain its REIT qualification. As of December 31, 2019, the Company had $460.6 million of NOL carryforwards at the corporate REIT level that can generally be used to offset both ordinary taxable income and capital gain net income in future years. The NOL carryforwards will begin to expire in 2031 and will fully expire in 2036 if unused. Because taxable income differs from cash flow from operations due to non-cash revenues and expenses (such as depreciation and certain asset impairments), in certain circumstances, the Company may generate operating cash flow in excess of its dividends, or alternatively, may need to make dividend payments in excess of operating cash flows. The Senior Term Loan and the Revolving Credit Facility permit the Company to pay common dividends with no restrictions so long as the Company is not in default on any of its debt obligations. The Company declared common stock dividends of $16.3 million, or $0.21 per share, for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and $12.7 million, or $0.19 per share, for the six months ended June 30, 2019.

Stock Repurchase Program—The Company may repurchase shares in negotiated transactions or open market transactions, including through one or more trading plans. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company repurchased 2.5 million shares of its outstanding common stock for $27.8 million, for an average cost of $10.98 per share. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company repurchased 6.2 million shares of its outstanding common stock for $58.3 million, for an average cost of $9.42 per share. As of June 30, 2020, the Company had remaining authorization to repurchase up to $6.4 million of common stock under its stock repurchase program. In August 2020, the Company's Board of Directors authorized an increase to the stock repurchase program to $50.0 million.

Note 15—Stock-Based Compensation Plans and Employee Benefits

Stock-Based Compensation—The Company recorded stock-based compensation expense, including the expense related to performance incentive plans (see below), of $4.7 million and $21.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively, and $9.7 million and $14.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, in "General and administrative" in the Company's consolidated statements of operations.

Performance Incentive Plans—The Company's Performance Incentive Plans ("iPIP") are designed to provide, primarily to senior executives and select professionals engaged in the Company's investment activities, long-term compensation which has a direct relationship to the realized returns on investments included in the plans. Awards vest over six years, with 40% being vested at the end of the second year and 15% each year thereafter.

2019-2020 iPIP Plan—The Company's 2019-2020 iPIP plan is an equity-classified award which is measured at the grant date fair value and recognized as compensation cost in "General and administrative" in the Company's consolidated statements of operations and "Noncontrolling interests" in the Company's consolidated statements of changes in equity over the requisite service period. Investments in the 2019-2020 iPIP plan will be held by a consolidated subsidiary of the Company that has two ownership classes, class A units and class B units. The Company owns 100% of the class A units and the class B units were issued to employees as long-term compensation. Except for certain clawback provisions, participants can retain vested class B units upon their termination of employment with the Company. The class B units are entitled to distributions from the net cash realized from the investments in the plan after the Company, through its ownership of the class A units, has received a specified return on its invested capital and a return of its invested capital. Distributions on the class B units are also subject to reductions under a total shareholder return ("TSR") adjustment. The fair value of the class B units was determined using a model that forecasts the underlying cash flows from the investments within the entity to which the class B units have ownership rights. During the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company recorded $1.6 million and $1.4 million, respectively, of expense related to the 2019-2020 iPIP plan. Distributions on the class B units will be 50% in cash and 50% in shares of the Company's common stock or in shares of SAFE's common stock owned by the Company.

2013-2018 iPIP Plans—The remainder of the Company's iPIP plans, as shown in the table below, are liability-classified awards and are remeasured each reporting period at fair value until the awards are settled. Certain employees will be granted awards that entitle employees to receive the residual cash flows from the investments in the plans after the Company has received a specified return on its invested capital and a return of its invested capital. Awards are also subject to reductions under a TSR adjustment. The fair value of awards is determined using a model that forecasts the Company's projected investment performance. Settlement of the awards will be 50% in cash and 50% in shares of the Company's common stock or in shares of SAFE's common stock owned by the Company.

The following is a summary of the status of the Company’s liability-classified iPIP plans and changes during the six months ended June 30, 2020.



	iPIP Investment Pool
	2013-2014	2015-2016	2017-2018
Points at beginning of period	81.17	73.28	77.27


Forfeited	(1.00)	(1.13)	(0.93)
Points at end of period	80.17	72.15	76.34

During the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company recorded $16.8 million and $9.8 million, respectively, of expense related to the 2013-2018 iPIP plans. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company made distributions to

The iPIP participants received total distributions in the amount of $1.5 million as compensation, comprised of cash and 54,245 shares of the Company's common stock with a fair value of $14.51 per share, which are fully-vested and issued under the 2009 LTIP (see below). After deducting statutory minimum tax withholdings, a total of 32,825 shares of the Company's common stock were issued.

During the six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company made distributions to participants in the 2013-2014 investment pool. The iPIP participants received total distributions in the amount of $7.4 million as compensation, comprised of cash and 389,545 shares of the Company's common stock, with a fair value of $9.21 per share, which are fully-vested and issued under the 2009 LTIP (see below). After deducting statutory minimum tax withholdings, a total of 209,118 shares of the Company's common stock were issued.

As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company had accrued compensation costs relating to iPIP of $57.3 million and $41.9 million, respectively, which are included in "Accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities" on the Company's consolidated balance sheets.

Long-Term Incentive Plan—The Company's 2009 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the "2009 LTIP") is designed to provide incentive compensation for officers, key employees, directors and advisors of the Company. The 2009 LTIP provides for awards of stock options, shares of restricted stock, phantom shares, restricted stock units, dividend equivalent rights and other share-based performance awards. All awards under the 2009 LTIP are made at the discretion of the Company's Board of Directors or a committee of the Board of Directors. The Company's shareholders approved the 2009 LTIP in 2009 and approved the performance-based provisions of the 2009 LTIP, as amended, in 2014. In May 2019, the Company's shareholders approved an increase in the number of shares available for issuance under the 2009 LTIP from a maximum of 8.0 million to 8.9 million and extended the expiration date of the 2009 LTIP from May 2019 to May 2029.

As of June 30, 2020, an aggregate of 2.4 million shares remain available for issuance pursuant to future awards under the Company's 2009 LTIP.

____________________________________________________________

(1)For the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, the effect of certain of the Company's restricted stock awards were anti-dilutive. The Company will settle conversions of the 3.125% Convertible Notes (refer to Note 11) by paying the conversion value in cash up to the original principal amount of the notes being converted and shares of common stock to the extent of any conversion premium. The amount of cash and shares of common stock, if any, due upon conversion will be based on a daily conversion value calculated for each trading day in a 40 consecutive day observation period. Based upon the conversion price of the 3.125% Convertible Notes, no shares of common stock would have been issuable upon conversion of the 3.125% Convertible Notes for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 and therefore the 3.125% Convertible Notes had no effect on diluted EPS for such period.

Note 17—Fair Values

Fair value represents the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The following fair value hierarchy prioritizes the inputs to be used in valuation techniques to measure fair value:

Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities;

Level 2: Quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs which are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability; and

Level 3: Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (i.e., supported by little or no market activity).

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

____________________________________________________________

(1)The fair value of the Company's derivatives are based upon widely accepted valuation techniques utilized by a third-party specialist using observable inputs such as interest rates and contractual cash flow and are classified as Level 2. The fair value of the Company's available-for-sale securities are based upon unadjusted third-party broker quotes and are classified as Level 3.

(2)The Company recorded an impairment of $3.0 million on a real estate asset held for sale based on expected sale proceeds.

(3)The Company recorded an impairment of $1.5 million on a land and development asset based on an executed purchase and sale agreement.

(4)The Company recorded aggregate impairments of $5.3 million on two land and development assets with an estimated aggregate fair value of $40.0 million. The estimated fair values are based on expected sales proceeds.

The following table summarizes changes in Level 3 available-for-sale securities reported at fair value on the Company's consolidated balance sheets for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 ($ in thousands):


	2020		2019
Beginning balance	$	23,896	$	21,661

Repayments	(460)		(46)
Unrealized gains recorded in other comprehensive income	1,175		1,709
Ending balance	$	24,611	$	23,324

Fair values of financial instruments—The Company's estimated fair values of its loans receivable and other lending investments and outstanding debt was $0.8 billion and $3.3 billion, respectively, as of June 30, 2020 and $0.9 billion and $3.6 billion, respectively, as of December 31, 2019. The Company determined that the significant inputs used to value its loans receivable and other lending investments and debt obligations fall within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. The carrying value of other financial instruments including cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and net investment in leases, approximate the fair values of the instruments. Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash values are considered Level 1 on the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of other financial instruments, including derivative assets and liabilities, are included in the fair value hierarchy table above.

Certain statements in this report, other than purely historical information, including estimates, projections, statements relating to our business plans, objectives and expected operating results, and the assumptions upon which those statements are based, are "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). Forward-looking statements are included with respect to, among other things, iStar Inc.'s (the "Company's") current business plan, business strategy, portfolio management, prospects and liquidity. These forward-looking statements generally are identified by the words "believe," "project," "expect," "anticipate," "estimate," "intend," "strategy," "plan," "may," "should," "will," "would," "will be," "will continue," "will likely result," and similar expressions. Forward-looking statements are based on current expectations and assumptions that are subject to risks and uncertainties which may cause actual results or outcomes to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements. We undertake no obligation to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. In assessing all forward-looking statements, readers are urged to read carefully all cautionary statements contained in this Form 10-Q and the uncertainties and risks described in Item 1A—"Risk Factors" in our Annual Report and in this Report, all of which could affect our future results of operations, financial condition and liquidity. For purposes of Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, the terms "we," "our" and "us" refer to iStar Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries, unless the context indicates otherwise.

The discussion below should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and related notes in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q and our Annual Report. These historical financial statements may not be indicative of our future performance. We have reclassified certain items in our consolidated financial statements of prior periods to conform to our current financial statements presentation.

Executive Overview

In 2019, we took advantage of favorable interest rate and liquidity conditions to refinance and pay down outstanding debt through the issuance of an aggregate of $1.325 billion of unsecured notes. The refinancings reduced our interest costs and improved our debt maturity profile. We have no corporate debt maturities through September 2022. In addition, in the fourth quarter 2019 substantially all of our Series J preferred stock was converted by the holders thereof into approximately 16.5 million shares of our common stock, which increased our equity base.

The coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak has rapidly and dramatically impacted the US and global economies. Many countries, including the United States, have instituted quarantines, mandated business and school closures and restricted travel. The US financial markets have experienced significant disruption, with heightened stock market volatility and highly constrained credit conditions within most sectors, including real estate. We are focused on ensuring the health and safety of our personnel and the continuity of business activities at iStar and SAFE, monitoring the effects of the crisis on our and SAFE's customers, marshalling available liquidity at both companies, implementing appropriate cost containment measures and preparing for the eventual resumption of more normalized activities. At this time, we cannot predict the full extent of the impacts of the COVID-19 crisis on our or SAFE's business. We will continue to monitor its effects on a daily basis and will adjust operations as necessary

The crisis began to materially affect our business in the latter part of the first quarter when we and most of our tenants and borrowers began working from home and normal business operations at companies throughout the United States ceased. There are no reliable forecasts as to how long these conditions will persist. Our portfolio is well diversified by business, property type and geography. SAFE reported that it received 100% of the ground rent due under its leases for the second quarter. Our portfolio includes investments in the entertainment/leisure (20.0% of gross book value) and hotel (5.5% of gross book value) sectors, which have been particularly stressed by the pandemic. During the quarter, we agreed with a tenant in the entertainment sector that we would apply $10 million of net proceeds that we received from recent sales of some of the tenant's facilities to the tenant's upcoming rent obligations to us. In exchange, our obligation under the lease to acquire an equal amount of new facilities for them or to reduce their rent in the future has been terminated. We collected 98% of the rent due from our other net lease tenants during the quarter, 94% of the interest payments due in our real estate finance portfolio and 80% of the rent due in our operating properties portfolio. We may continue to experience disruptions and collections of rent and interest payments until more normalized business conditions resume. We increased our allowance for loan losses and may continue to do so in future quarters while the COVID-19 pandemic continues to materially affect the US economy.

The COVID-19 crisis has adversely affected our strategies of monetizing legacy assets and materially scaling SAFE's portfolio for the time being. Equity and debt financing for real estate transactions generally is constrained. In addition, the crisis has made it more difficult to execute transactions as people are unable to visit properties, local governmental offices are closed and third parties such as survey, insurance, environmental and similar services have more limited capacities. These conditions

will adversely affect our strategy while they persist. See the Risk Factors section of this report for additional discussion of certain potential risks to our business arising from the COVID-19 crisis.

Net Lease

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

Table of Contents

The net lease segment includes our Ground Lease investments made primarily through SAFE and our traditional net lease investments. As of June 30, 2020, our consolidated net lease portfolio totaled $2.2 billion. Our net lease portfolio, including the carrying value of our equity method investments in SAFE and Net Lease Venture II, exclusive of accumulated depreciation, totaled $3.1 billion. The table below provides certain statistics for our net lease portfolio.

_______________________________________________________________________________

(1)We own 51.9% of the Net Lease Venture which is consolidated in our GAAP financial statements (refer to Note 4).

(2)Gross book value represents the acquisition cost of real estate and any additional capital invested into the property by us. Consolidated Real Estate includes amounts recorded as net investment in leases (refer to Note 5) and financing receivables in loans and other lending investments (refer to Note 7). SAFE includes its 54.8% pro rata share of its unconsolidated equity method investment.

(3)Weighted average lease term is calculated using GAAP rent and the initial maturity and does not include extension options. SAFE includes its 54.8% pro rata share of its unconsolidated equity method investment.

(4)Yield for SAFE is calculated over the trailing twelve months and excludes management fees earned by us.

Net Lease Venture—In February 2014, the Company partnered with a sovereign wealth fund to form a venture to acquire and develop net lease assets and gave a right of first refusal to the venture on all new net lease investments that met specified investment criteria (refer to Note 4 in our consolidated financial statements for more information on our Net Lease Venture). The Net Lease Venture's investment period expired on June 30, 2018 and the remaining term of the venture extends through February 13, 2022, subject to two, one-year extension options at the discretion of us and our partner. We obtained control over the Net Lease Venture when the investment period expired on June 30, 2018 and consolidated the assets and liabilities of the venture, which had previously been accounted for as an equity method investment.

Net Lease Venture II—In July 2018, we entered into Net Lease Venture II with similar investment strategies as the Net Lease Venture (refer to Note 8). The Net Lease Venture II has a right of first offer on all new net lease investments (excluding Ground Leases) originated by us. We have an equity interest in the new venture of approximately 51.9%, which is accounted for as an equity method investment, and are responsible for managing the venture in exchange for a management fee and incentive fee.

SAFE—SAFE is a publicly-traded company that originates and acquires Ground Leases in order to generate attractive long-term risk-adjusted returns from its investments. We believe its business has characteristics comparable to a high-grade fixed income investment business, but with certain unique advantages. Relative to alternative fixed income investments generally, SAFE's Ground Leases typically benefit from built-in growth derived from contractual rent increases, and the opportunity to realize value from residual rights to acquire the buildings and other improvements on its land at no additional cost. We believe that these features offer us the opportunity through our ownership in SAFE to realize superior risk-adjusted total returns when compared to certain alternative highly-rated investments. As of June 30, 2020, we owned approximately 65.4% of SAFE's common stock outstanding.

We account for our investment in SAFE as an equity method investment (refer to Note 8). We act as SAFE's external manager pursuant to a management agreement, and we have an exclusivity agreement with SAFE pursuant to which we agreed, subject to certain exceptions, that we will not acquire, originate, invest in, or provide financing for a third party’s acquisition of, a Ground Lease unless we have first offered that opportunity to SAFE and a majority of its independent directors has declined the opportunity.

Real Estate Finance

Our real estate finance business targets sophisticated and innovative owner/operators of real estate and real estate related projects by providing one-stop capabilities that encompass financing alternatives ranging from full envelope senior loans to mezzanine and preferred equity capital positions. Our real estate finance portfolio consists of senior mortgage loans that are secured by commercial and residential real estate assets where we are the first lien holder, subordinated mortgage loans that are secured by second lien or junior interests in commercial and residential real estate assets, leasehold loans to Ground Lease tenants, including tenants of SAFE, and corporate/partnership loans, which represent mezzanine or subordinated loans to

entities for which we do not have a lien on the underlying asset, but may have a pledge of underlying equity ownership of such assets. Our real estate finance portfolio includes loans on stabilized and transitional properties, Ground Leases and ground-up construction projects. In addition, we have preferred equity investments and debt securities classified as other lending investments.

As of June 30, 2020, our real estate finance portfolio, including securities and other lending investments, totaled $815.6 million, exclusive of general loan loss allowance. The portfolio, excluding securities and other lending investments, included $642.6 million of performing loans with a weighted average maturity of 1.4 years.

Non-Performing Loans—We designate loans as non-performing at such time as: (1) the loan becomes 90 days delinquent; (2) the loan has a maturity default; or (3) management determines it is probable that we will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan. All non-performing loans are placed on non-accrual status and income is only recognized in certain cases upon actual cash receipt. As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, we had one non-performing loan with a carrying value of $15.6 million and $16.1 million, respectively. We expect that our level of non-performing loans will fluctuate from period to period.

Allowance for Loan Losses—The allowance for loan losses was $35.6 million as of June 30, 2020, or 5.2% of total loans, compared to $28.6 million, or 4.1%, as of December 31, 2019. We expect that our level of allowance for loan losses will fluctuate from period to period. Due to the volatility of the commercial real estate market, the process of estimating collateral values and allowances requires the use of significant judgment. We currently believe there is adequate collateral and allowances to support the carrying values of the loans.

The allowance for loan losses includes an asset-specific component and a formula-based component. An asset-specific allowance is established for an impaired loan when the estimated fair value of the loan's collateral less costs to sell is lower than the carrying value of the loan. As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, asset-specific allowances were $21.7 million.

Table of Contents

We estimate the formula-based component based on historical realized losses experienced within our portfolio and take into account current economic conditions affecting the commercial real estate market. We estimate the formula-based component on our construction loan portfolio based on historical realized losses experienced within our portfolio and third-party market data that includes historical loss rates on commercial real estate loans and forecasted economic trends, including interest and unemployment rates. We estimate the formula-based component on our other loans using a loan loss forecasting tool developed by Trepp LLC that utilizes loan level data including each loans position in the capital structure, interest rates, maturity dates, unfunded commitments, debt service coverage ratios, etc. which also utilizes forward looking macroeconomic variables and pool-level mean loss rates to produce an expected loss over the life each loan.

The general allowance increased to $13.9 million or 2.2% of performing loans and other lending investments as of June 30, 2020, compared to $6.9 million or 1.0% of performing loans and other lending investments as of December 31, 2019. The increase was due to a $0.7 million general allowance recorded upon the adoption of ASU 2016-13 on January 1, 2020 (refer to Note 3) and an increase in the general allowance of $6.3 million during the six months ended June 30, 2020.

Operating Properties

Our operating properties represent a pool of assets across a broad range of geographies and property types including office, retail, hotel and residential properties. As of June 30, 2020, our operating property portfolio, including the carrying value of our equity method investments gross of accumulated depreciation, totaled $310.1 million.

Interest income decreased $4.9 million, or 24%, to $15.4 million during the three months ended June 30, 2020 from $20.3 million for the same period in 2019. The decrease was due primarily to a decrease in the average balance of our performing loans and other lending investments, which was $755 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and $883 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019. The weighted average yield on our performing loans and other lending investments was 7.8% and 9.1%, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019.

On January 1, 2019, we adopted new accounting standards and classified certain of our leases in 2019 as sales-type leases. Under sales-type leases, we accrue interest income from sales-type leases under the effective interest method as opposed to recognition of operating lease income under the straight-line rent method for our leases that do not qualify as sales-type leases. Interest income from sales-type leases increased to $8.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 from $3.8 million for the same period in 2019. The increase was due primarily to a full period of interest income for sales-type leases during the three months ended June 30, 2020 (refer to Note 5).

As a result of the modifications to the leases, we accounted for the leases as sales-type leases and recognized $180.4 million in "Selling profit from sales-type leases" as a result of the transaction.

Income tax expense—Income tax expense of $0.1 million was recorded during the six months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to an income tax expense of $0.2 million for the same period in 2019. The income tax expense for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 is related primarily to state margins taxes and other minimum state taxes.

Adjusted Earnings

In 2019, we announced a new business strategy that would focus our management personnel and our investment resources primarily on scaling our Ground Lease platform. As part of this strategy, we accelerated the monetization of legacy assets, reducing our legacy portfolio to approximately 17% of our overall portfolio as of June 30, 2020, and deployed a substantial portion of the proceeds into additional investments in SAFE and new loan and net lease originations relating to the Ground Lease business. Management has determined that, effective for the first quarter 2020, a modified non-GAAP earnings metric, designated "adjusted earnings," is the metric it uses to assess our execution of this strategy and the performance of our operations. Adjusted earnings reflects impairment charges and loan provisions in the same period in which they are recognized in net income (loss) prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("GAAP"), rather than in a later period when the asset is sold. We believe this change is appropriate as legacy asset sales become less central to our business, even though sales may be material to particular periods when they occur.

Adjusted earnings is used internally as a supplemental performance measure adjusting for certain items to give management a view of income more directly derived from operating activities in the period in which they occur. Adjusted earnings is calculated as net income (loss) allocable to common shareholders, prior to the effect of depreciation and amortization, including our proportionate share of depreciation and amortization from equity method investments and excluding depreciation and amortization allocable to noncontrolling interests, stock-based compensation expense, the non-cash portion of loss on early extinguishment of debt and the liquidation preference recorded as a premium above book value on the redemption of preferred stock ("Adjusted Earnings"). All prior periods have been calculated in accordance with this definition.

Table of Contents

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

Liquidity and Capital Resources

During the three months ended June 30, 2020, we invested $59.5 million into new investments, prior financing commitments and ongoing real estate development. This amount includes $24.9 million in real estate finance, $10.6 million to develop our land and development assets, $16.0 million to invest in net lease assets, and $2.2 million of capital to reposition or redevelop our operating properties and $5.8 million in other investments. Also during the three months ended June 30, 2020, we generated $99.5 million of proceeds from loan repayments and asset sales within our portfolio, comprised of $81.1 million from real estate finance, $3.1 million from operating properties and net lease assets and $15.3 million from land and development assets. These amounts are inclusive of fundings and proceeds from both consolidated investments and our pro rata share from equity method investments.

The following table outlines our capital expenditures on operating properties, net lease and land and development assets as reflected in our consolidated statements of cash flows, by segment ($ in thousands):

Table of Contents

As of June 30, 2020, we had unrestricted cash of approximately $80.7 million and $350.0 million of borrowing capacity available under the Revolving Credit Facility. The COVID-19 crisis has for the time being adversely affected our strategies of monetizing legacy assets and materially scaling SAFE's portfolio as its Manager. These conditions will adversely affect our strategies while they persist. Our primary cash uses over the next 12 months are expected to be funding of investments, capital expenditures, distributions to shareholders and funding ongoing business operations. In the near term we plan to limit non-investment cash expenditures to the extent practicable. The amount we actually invest will depend on the full impact of COVID-19 on our business and the pace of the economic recovery. We also had approximately $242.0 of maximum unfunded commitments associated with our investments of which we expect to fund the majority over the next two years, assuming borrowers and tenants meet all milestones, performance hurdles and all other conditions to fundings (see "Unfunded Commitments" below). We also have $598.8 million principal amount of scheduled real estate finance maturities over the next 12 months, exclusive of any extension options that can be exercised by our borrowers. Our capital sources to meet cash uses through the next 12 months and beyond are expected to include cash on hand, income from our portfolio, loan repayments from borrowers and proceeds from asset sales. We cannot predict with certainty the specific transactions we will undertake to generate sufficient liquidity to meet our obligations as they come due. We will adjust our plans as appropriate in response to changes in our expectations and changes in market conditions.

_______________________________________________________________________________

(1)The Senior Term Loan and the Revolving Credit Facility are secured only by pledges of equity of certain of our subsidiaries and not by pledges of the assets held by such subsidiaries. Such subsidiaries are subject to contractual restrictions under the terms of such credit facilities, including restrictions on incurring new debt (subject to certain exceptions). As of June 30, 2020, Collateral Assets includes $472.1 million carrying value of assets held by entities whose equity interests are pledged as collateral for the Revolving Credit Facility that is undrawn at June 30, 2020.

(2)As of June 30, 2020, the amount presented excludes a general allowance for net investment of leases of $10.9 million.

(3)As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the amounts presented exclude a general allowance for loan losses of $13.9 million and $6.9 million, respectively.

(4)As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the amounts presented exclude loan participations of $40.1 million and $35.6 million, respectively.

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

The Senior Term Loan and the Revolving Credit Facility contain certain covenants, including covenants relating to collateral coverage, restrictions on fundamental changes, transactions with affiliates, matters relating to the liens granted to the lenders and the delivery of information to the lenders. In particular, the Senior Term Loan requires us to maintain collateral coverage of at least 1.25x outstanding borrowings on the facility. The Revolving Credit Facility is secured by a borrowing base of assets and requires us to maintain both borrowing base asset value of at least 1.5x outstanding borrowings on the facility and a consolidated ratio of cash flow to fixed charges of at least 1.5x. The Revolving Credit Facility does not require that proceeds from the borrowing base be used to pay down outstanding borrowings provided the borrowing base asset value remains at least 1.5x outstanding borrowings on the facility. To satisfy this covenant, we have the option to pay down outstanding borrowings or substitute assets in the borrowing base. Under both the Senior Term Loan and the Revolving Credit Facility we are permitted to pay dividends provided that no material default (as defined in the relevant agreement) has occurred and is continuing or would result therefrom and we remain in compliance with our financial covenants after giving effect to the dividend. We declared common stock dividends of $16.3 million, or $0.21 per share, for the six months ended June 30, 2020.

Derivatives—Our use of derivative financial instruments is primarily limited to the utilization of interest rate swaps, interest rate caps or other instruments to manage interest rate risk exposure and foreign exchange contracts to manage our risk to changes in foreign currencies. Refer to Note 13 to the consolidated financial statements.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements—We are not dependent on the use of any off-balance sheet financing arrangements for liquidity. We have made investments in various unconsolidated ventures. Refer to Note 8 to the consolidated financial statements for further details of our unconsolidated investments. Our maximum exposure to loss from these investments is limited to the carrying value of our investments and any unfunded commitments (see below).

Table of Contents

Unfunded Commitments—We generally fund construction and development loans and build-outs of space in net lease assets over a period of time if and when the borrowers and tenants meet established milestones and other performance criteria. We refer to these arrangements as Performance-Based Commitments. In addition, we have committed to invest capital in several real estate funds and other ventures. These arrangements are referred to as Strategic Investments. As of June 30, 2020, the maximum amount of fundings we may be obligated to make under each category, assuming all performance hurdles and milestones are met under the Performance-Based Commitments and assuming that 100% of our capital committed to Strategic Investments is drawn down, are as follows (in thousands):

(1)Excludes $9.8 million of commitments on loan participations sold that are not our obligation.

(2)Includes a commitment to invest up to $55.0 million in additional bowling centers over the next several years (refer to Note 5).

Stock Repurchase Program—We may repurchase shares in negotiated transactions or open market transactions, including through one or more trading plans. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, we repurchased 2.5 million shares of our outstanding common stock for $27.8 million, for an average cost of $10.98 per share. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, we repurchased 6.2 million shares of our outstanding common stock for $58.3 million, for an average cost of $9.42 per share. As of June 30, 2020, we had remaining authorization to repurchase up to $6.4 million of common stock under our stock repurchase program. In August 2020, our board of directors authorized an increase to the stock repurchase program to $50.0 million.

Critical Accounting Estimates

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

For a discussion of our critical accounting policies, refer to Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements and our Annual Report on Form 10-K.

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

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Market Risks

Market risk is the exposure to loss resulting from changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices and equity prices. In pursuing our business plan, the primary market risk to which we are exposed is interest rate risk. Our operating results will depend in part on the difference between the interest and related income earned on our assets and the interest expense incurred in connection with our interest-bearing liabilities. Changes in the general level of interest rates prevailing in the financial markets will affect the spread between our floating rate assets and liabilities subject to the net amount of floating rate assets/liabilities and the impact of interest rate floors and caps. Any significant compression of the spreads between interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities could have a material adverse effect on us.

In the event of a significant rising interest rate environment or economic downturn, defaults could increase and cause us to incur additional credit losses which would adversely affect our liquidity and operating results. Such delinquencies or defaults would likely have a material adverse effect on the spreads between interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. In addition, an increase in interest rates could, among other things, reduce the value of our fixed-rate interest-bearing assets and our ability to realize gains from the sale of such assets.

Interest rates are highly sensitive to many factors, including governmental monetary and tax policies, domestic and international economic and political conditions, and other factors beyond our control. We monitor the spreads between our interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities and may implement hedging strategies to limit the effects of changes in interest rates on our operations, including engaging in interest rate swaps, interest rate caps and other interest rate-related derivative contracts. Such strategies are designed to reduce our exposure, on specific transactions or on a portfolio basis, to changes in cash flows as a result of interest rate movements in the market. We do not enter into derivative contracts for speculative purposes or as a hedge against changes in our credit risk or the credit risk of our borrowers.

While a REIT may utilize derivative instruments to hedge interest rate risk on its liabilities incurred to acquire or carry real estate assets without generating non-qualifying income, use of derivatives for other purposes will generate non-qualified income for REIT income test purposes. This includes hedging asset related risks such as credit and interest rate exposure on our loan assets. As a result our ability to hedge these types of risks is limited. There can be no assurance that our profitability will not be materially adversely affected during any period as a result of changing interest rates.

The following table quantifies the potential changes in annual net income, assuming no change in our interest earning assets or interest bearing liabilities, should interest rates increase by 10, 50 or 100 basis points or decrease by 10 basis points, assuming no change in the shape of the yield curve (i.e., relative interest rates). The base interest rate scenario assumes the one-month LIBOR rate of 0.16% as of June 30, 2020. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimated in the table.

(1)As of June 30, 2020, we have an overall net variable-rate asset position. In addition, as of June 30, 2020, $378.4 million of our floating rate loans have a weighted average interest rate floor of 1.6% and $40.2 million of our floating rate debt obligations have a weighted average interest rate floor of 1.5%.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

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

Table of Contents

As of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the disclosure committee and other members of management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(b) or Rule 15d-15. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures are effective to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is: (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms; and (ii) accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure.

There have been no changes during the last fiscal quarter in the Company's internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that it will detect or uncover failures within the Company to disclose material information otherwise required to be set forth in the Company's periodic reports.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

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

Item 1a. Risk Factors

In addition to the risk factors discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, you should consider carefully the following in evaluating an investment in the Company's securities. Any of these risks or the occurrence of any one or more of the uncertainties described below could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and market price of the Company's common stock.

The current novel coronavirus, or COVID-19, pandemic or the future outbreak of any other highly infectious or contagious diseases, could materially and adversely impact or cause disruption to our performance, financial condition, results of operations, stock price, cash flows and ability to pay distributions. Further, the pandemic has caused disruptions in the U.S. and global economies and financial markets and created widespread business continuity issues of an as yet unknown magnitude and duration.

The COVID-19 pandemic outbreak has rapidly and dramatically impacted the US and global economies. Many countries, including the United States, have instituted quarantines, mandated business and school closures and restricted travel. The US financial markets have experienced disruption, with heightened stock market volatility and constrained credit conditions within most sectors, including real estate. The outbreak has triggered a period of economic slowdown and experts are uncertain as to how long these conditions may last. At this time, we cannot predict the extent of the impacts of the COVID-19 crisis on our business. We will continue to monitor its effects on a daily basis and will adjust our operations as necessary.

COVID-19 or another pandemic could have material and adverse effects on our ability to successfully operate due to, among other factors:

•a complete or partial closure of, or other operational issues at, one or more of our operating properties resulting from government or tenant action;

•the impact of reduced economic activity on our tenants' and borrowers' businesses, financial condition and liquidity and may cause one or more of our tenants or borrowers to be unable to meet their obligations to us in full, or at all;

•as of June 30, 2020, the entertainment/leisure and hotel sectors represented approximately 20.0% and 5.5%, respectively, of the gross book value of our investments. These sectors have been particularly stressed by the COVID-19 pandemic. One of our entertainment sector net lease tenants, representing approximately 0.7% of the gross book value of our investments as of June 30, 2020 and 0.4% of our revenues for the first quarter (we did not record any revenues from this tenant in the second quarter), declared bankruptcy in April, and rejected our lease. There can be no assurance that additional tenant or borrower bankruptcies will not occur in these and other sectors;

•the decline in real estate transaction activity and constrained credit conditions may adversely affect our strategies of monetizing legacy assets and scaling SAFE's portfolio as its Manager;

•our earnings could be negatively impacted by increased allowances against potential future losses;

•deteriorations in our financial condition may cause us to be unable to satisfy financial covenants in our debt obligations. If we are unable to meet our covenants, our lenders may declare us to be in default and require us to repay outstanding borrowings;

•potential negative impact on the health of our employees, particularly if a significant number of them are impacted;

•difficulty accessing debt and equity capital on attractive terms, or at all, and any disruption and instability in the global financial markets or deteriorations in credit and financing conditions may affect our or our tenants' and borrowers' access to capital necessary to fund business operations or address maturing liabilities on a timely basis and our tenants' or borrowers' ability to meet their obligations to us; and

•a deterioration in our and our tenants' or borrowers' ability to operate in affected areas or delays in the supply of products or services to us and our tenants or borrowers from vendors that are needed for our and our tenants' and borrowers' efficient operations.

Table of Contents

The rapid development and fluidity of this situation precludes any prediction as to the ultimate adverse impact of COVID-19. Nevertheless, COVID-19 presents material uncertainty and risk with respect to our performance, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

There were no other material changes from the risk factors previously disclosed in our Annual Report.
