Business and Organization

(1) Business and Organization

TPG RE Finance Trust, Inc. (together with its consolidated subsidiaries, “we,” “us,” “our” or the “Company”) is a Maryland corporation that was incorporated on October 24, 2014 and commenced operations on December 18, 2014 (“Inception”). We are organized as a holding company and conduct our operations primarily through TPG RE Finance Trust Holdco, LLC (“Holdco”), a Delaware limited liability company that is wholly owned by the Company, and Holdco’s direct and indirect subsidiaries. We conduct our operations as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) for U.S. federal income tax purposes. We generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income taxes on our REIT taxable income to the extent that we annually distribute all of our REIT taxable income to stockholders and maintain our qualification as a REIT. We also operate our business in a manner that permits us to maintain an exclusion from registration under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

The Company’s principal business activity is to directly originate and acquire a diversified portfolio of commercial real estate related assets, consisting primarily of first mortgage loans and senior participation interests in first mortgage loans secured by institutional-quality properties in primary and select secondary markets in the United States and commercial real estate debt securities, including commercial mortgage-backed securities (“CMBS”) and commercial real estate collateralized loan obligation securities (“CRE CLO”). As of June 30, 2019, and December 31, 2018, the Company conducted substantially all of its operations through a Delaware limited liability company, TPG RE Finance Trust Holdco, LLC (“Holdco”), and the Company’s other wholly-owned subsidiaries.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

(2) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The interim consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). The interim consolidated financial statements include the Company’s accounts, consolidated variable interest entities for which the Company is the primary beneficiary, and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the interim consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires estimates of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the interim consolidated financial statements. Actual results could differ from management’s estimates, and such differences could be material. Significant estimates made in the interim consolidated financial statements include, but are not limited to: impairment; adequacy of provisions for loan losses; and valuation of financial instruments.

Principles of Consolidation

Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 810—Consolidation (“ASC 810”) provides guidance on the identification of a VIE (a variable interest entity for which control is achieved through means other than voting rights) and the determination of which business enterprise, if any, should consolidate the VIE. An entity is considered a VIE if any of the following applies: (1) the equity investors (if any) lack one or more of the essential characteristics of a controlling financial interest; (2) the equity investment at risk is insufficient to finance that entity’s activities without additional subordinated financial support; or (3) the equity investors have voting rights that are not proportionate to their economic interests and the activities of the entity involve or are conducted on behalf of an investor with a disproportionately small voting interest. The Company consolidates VIEs in which it is considered to be the primary beneficiary. The primary beneficiary is defined as the entity having both of the following characteristics: (1) the power to direct the activities that, when taken together, most significantly impact the VIE’s performance; and (2) the obligation to absorb losses and right to receive the returns from the VIE that would be significant to the VIE.

At each reporting date, the Company reconsiders its primary beneficiary conclusion to determine if its obligation to absorb losses of, or its rights to receive benefits from, the VIE could potentially be more than insignificant, and will consolidate or not consolidate accordingly (see Note 5 for details).

Revenue Recognition

Interest income on loans is accrued using the interest method based on the contractual terms of the loan, adjusted for credit impairment, if any. The objective of the interest method is to arrive at periodic interest income including recognition of fees and costs at a constant effective yield. Premiums, discounts, and origination fees are amortized or accreted into interest income over the lives of the loans using the interest method, or on a straight line basis when it approximates the interest method. Extension and modification fees are accreted into income on a straight line basis, when it approximates the interest method, over the related extension or modification period. Exit fees are accreted into income on a straight line basis, when it approximates the interest method, over the lives of the loans to which they relate unless they can be waived by the Company or a co-lender in connection with a loan refinancing. Prepayment penalties from borrowers are recognized as interest income when received. Certain of the Company’s loan investments have in the past and may in the future provide for additional interest based on the borrower’s operating cash flow or appreciation of the underlying collateral. Such amounts are considered contingent interest and are reflected as interest income only upon certainty of collection.

The Company considers a loan to be non-performing and places the loan on non-accrual status when: (1) management determines the borrower is incapable of, or has ceased efforts toward, curing the cause of a default; (2) the loan becomes 90 days delinquent; or (3) the loan experiences a maturity default. Based on the Company’s judgment as to the collectability of principal, a loan on non-accrual status is either accounted for on a cash basis, where interest income is recognized only upon receipt of cash for principal and interest payments, or on a cost-recovery basis, where all cash receipts reduce the loan’s carrying value, and interest income is only recorded when such carrying value has been fully recovered.

During the six months ended June 30, 2019 and the year end December 31, 2018, no loans were placed on non-accrual status and no losses or impairments were recorded to our loan portfolio.

Loans Held for Investment

Loans that the Company has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future, or until maturity or repayment, are reported at their outstanding principal balances net of any premiums, discounts, loan origination fees and loan loss allowances, if any. Loan origination fees and direct loan origination costs are deferred and recognized in interest income over the estimated life of the loans using the interest method, or on a straight line basis when it approximates the interest method, adjusted for actual prepayments.

The Company evaluates each loan classified as a loan held for investment for impairment on a quarterly basis. Impairment occurs when it is deemed probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan. If the loan is considered to be impaired, a loan loss allowance is recorded to reduce the carrying value of the loan to the present value of the expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s contractual effective rate, or the fair value of the collateral securing the impaired loan, less estimated costs to sell such collateral, if recovery of the Company’s investment is expected solely from the sale of such collateral. As part of the quarterly impairment review, the Company evaluates the risk of each loan and assigns a risk rating based on a variety of factors, grouped as follows to include, among other factors: (i) loan and credit structure, including the as-is loan-to-value (“LTV”) ratio and structural features; (ii) quality and stability of real estate value and operating cash flow, including debt yield, property type, dynamics of the geographic, property-type and local market, physical condition, stability of cash flow, leasing velocity and quality and diversity of tenancy; (iii) performance against underwritten business plan; and (iv) quality, experience and financial condition of sponsor, borrower and guarantor(s). Based on a 5-point scale, the Company’s loans are rated “1” through “5,” from least risk to greatest risk, respectively, which ratings are defined as follows:

Outperform—Exceeds performance metrics (for example, technical milestones, occupancy, rents, net operating income) included in original or current credit underwriting and business plan;

2-

Meets or Exceeds Expectations—Collateral performance meets or exceeds substantially all performance metrics included in original or current underwriting / business plan;

3-

Satisfactory—Collateral performance meets or is on track to meet underwriting; business plan is met or can reasonably be achieved;

4-

Underperformance—Collateral performance falls short of original underwriting, material differences exist from business plan, or both; technical milestones have been missed; defaults may exist, or may soon occur absent material improvement; and

5-

Risk of Impairment/Default—Collateral performance is significantly worse than underwriting; major variance from business plan; loan covenants or technical milestones have been breached; timely exit from loan via sale or refinancing is questionable.

Since Inception, the Company has not recognized any impairments on its loan portfolio and has not recorded any loan loss allowances against any of the loans in its portfolio. The Company’s determination of asset-specific loan loss reserves, should any such reserves be necessary, relies on material estimates regarding the fair value of loan collateral. Such losses could be caused by various factors, including, but not limited to, unanticipated adverse changes in the economy or events adversely affecting specific assets, borrowers, industries in which our borrowers operate or markets in which our borrowers or their properties are located. Significant judgment is required when evaluating loans for impairment.

The Company’s loans are typically collateralized by real estate, or in the case of mezzanine loans, by a partnership or similar equity interest in an entity that owns real estate. As a result, the Company regularly evaluates on a loan-by-loan basis the extent and impact of any credit deterioration associated with the performance and/or value of the underlying collateral property as well as the financial and operating capability of the borrower/sponsor. The Company also evaluates the financial strength of loan guarantors, if any, and the borrower’s competency in managing and operating the property or properties. In addition, the Company considers the overall economic environment, real estate sector, and geographic sub-market in which the borrower operates. Such impairment analyses are completed and reviewed by asset management personnel and evaluated by senior management, who utilize various data sources, including (i) periodic financial data such as property occupancy, tenant profile, rental rates, operating expenses, the borrower’s exit plan, and capitalization and discount rates, (ii) site inspections, (iii) sales and financing comparables, (iv) current credit spreads for refinancing and (v) other market data.

Commercial Mortgage-Backed and Commercial Real Estate Collateralized Loan Obligation Securities

The Company acquires CMBS and CRE CLO investments primarily for cash management purposes, and also for investment purposes. The Company designates CMBS and CRE CLO investments as available-for-sale on the acquisition date. CMBS and CRE CLO investments that are classified as available-for-sale are recorded at fair value through other comprehensive income (loss) in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Additionally, CMBS and CRE CLO investments that are not classified as held-to-maturity and which the Company does not hold for the purpose of selling in the near-term, but may dispose of prior to maturity, are also designated as available-for-sale and are carried at fair value. The Company’s recognition of interest income from its CMBS and CRE CLO investments, including its amortization of premium and discount, follows the Company’s revenue recognition policy as described under “Revenue Recognition” above. The Company uses a specific identification method when determining the cost of a security sold and the amount of unrealized gain or loss reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) into earnings. Unrealized losses on securities that, in the judgment of management, are other than temporary are charged against earnings as a loss in the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. Significant valuation inputs are Level II in the fair value hierarchy as described below under “Fair Value Measurements”.

Portfolio Financing Arrangements

The Company finances certain loan and CMBS and CRE CLO investments using secured revolving repurchase agreements, asset-specific financing arrangements, senior secured and secured credit agreements, collateralized loan obligations, and a term loan facility. The related borrowings are recorded as separate liabilities on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Interest income earned on the investments and interest expense incurred on the related borrowings are reported separately on the Company’s consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income.

In certain instances, the Company creates structural leverage through the co-origination or non-recourse syndication of a senior loan interest to a third party. For all such syndications the Company has completed through June 30, 2019, the Company has transferred 100% of the senior mortgage loan that the Company originated on a non-recourse basis to a third-party lender and has retained as a loan investment a separate mezzanine loan investment secured by a pledge of the equity in the mortgage borrower. With respect to the senior mortgage loan transferred, the Company retains: no control over the mortgage loan; no economic interest in the mortgage loan; and no recourse to the purchaser or the borrower. Consequently, based on these circumstances and because the Company does not have any continuing involvement with the transferred senior mortgage loan, these syndications are accounted for as sales under GAAP and are removed from the Company’s consolidated financial statements at the time of transfer. The Company’s consolidated balance sheets only include the separate mezzanine loan remaining after the transfer, and not the non-consolidated senior loan interest sold or co-originated that the Company transferred.

As of December 31, 2018, the Company revised its “Note Payable” naming convention in its consolidated balance sheet to “Asset-Specific Financings”. No amounts reported in prior periods were reclassified between financial statement line items and there was no impact to the Company’s consolidated financial statements resulting from this naming convention change during the current fiscal year.

Fair Value Measurements

The Company follows ASC 820-10, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820-10”), for its holdings of financial instruments. ASC 820-10 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with GAAP and expands disclosure of fair value measurements. ASC 820-10 determines fair value to be the price that would be received for a financial instrument in a current sale, which assumes an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The Company determines the estimated fair value of financial assets and liabilities using the three-tier fair value hierarchy established by GAAP, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. GAAP establishes market-based or observable inputs as the preferred source of values followed by valuation models using management assumptions in the absence of market inputs. The financial instruments recorded at fair value on a recurring basis in the Company’s consolidated financial statements are cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and available-for-sale CMBS and CRE CLO investments. The three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value are as follows:

Level I—Valuations based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access.

Level II—Valuations based on quoted prices in markets that are not active or for which all significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly.

Level III—Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement.

For certain financial instruments, the various inputs that management uses to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, the determination of which category within the fair value hierarchy is appropriate for such financial instrument is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the financial instrument. The Company may use valuation techniques consistent with the market and income approaches to measure the fair value of its assets and liabilities. The market approach uses third-party valuations and information obtained from market transactions involving identical or similar assets or liabilities. The income approach uses projections of the future economic benefits of an instrument to determine its fair value, such as in the discounted cash flow methodology. The inputs or methodology used for valuing financial instruments are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in these financial instruments. Transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy are assumed to occur at the end of the reporting period.

Income Taxes

The Company qualifies and has elected to be taxed as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, commencing with its initial taxable year ended December 31, 2014. To the extent that it annually distributes at least 90% of its REIT taxable income to stockholders and complies with various other requirements as a REIT, the Company generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income taxes on its distributed REIT taxable income. If the Company fails to continue to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year and does not qualify for certain statutory relief provisions, the Company will be subject to U.S. federal and state income taxes at regular corporate rates beginning with the year in which it fails to qualify and may be precluded from being able to elect to be treated as a REIT for the Company’s four subsequent taxable years. Even though the Company currently qualifies for taxation as a REIT, the Company may be subject to certain U.S. federal, state, local and foreign taxes on the Company’s income and property and to U.S. federal income and excise taxes on the Company’s undistributed REIT taxable income.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the periods in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the period in which the enactment date occurs. Under ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes (“ASC 740”), a valuation allowance is established when management believes it is more likely than not that a deferred tax asset will not be realized. The Company intends to continue to operate in a manner consistent with, and to continue to meet the requirements to be treated as, a REIT for tax purposes and to distribute all of its REIT taxable income. Accordingly, the Company does not expect to pay corporate level federal taxes.

Earnings per Common Share

The Company utilizes the two-class method when assessing participating securities to calculate earnings per common share. Basic and diluted earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income attributable to common stockholders (i.e., holders of common stock and Class A common stock), by the weighted-average number of common shares (both common stock and Class A common stock) outstanding during the period. The preferences, rights, voting powers, restrictions, limitations as to dividends and other distributions, qualifications and terms and conditions of redemption of the Class A common stock are identical to the common stock, except (1) the Class A common stock is not a “margin security” as defined in Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the U.S. Federal Reserve System (and rulings and interpretations thereunder) and may not be listed on a national securities exchange or a national market system and (2) each share of Class A common stock is convertible at any time or from time to time, at the option of the holder, for one fully paid and non-assessable share of common stock. The Class A common stock votes together with the common stock as a single class. Shares of Class A common stock have been issued to, and are owned by, TPG RE Finance Trust Management, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the “Manager”), and certain individuals or entities who are or were affiliated with the Manager, and the sale or conversion to common stock by investors of such shares of Class A common stock is subject to certain restrictions.

Diluted earnings per common share is calculated by including the effect of dilutive securities. The Company accounts for unvested share-based payment awards that contain non-forfeitable dividend rights or dividend equivalents (whether paid or unpaid) as participating securities, which are included in the computation of earnings per share pursuant to the two-class method.

Share-Based Compensation

Share-based compensation consists of awards issued by the Company to certain employees of affiliates of our Manager and certain members of our Board of Directors. These share-based awards generally vest in installments over a fixed period of time. Compensation expense is recognized in net income on a straight-line basis over the applicable awards’ vesting period. Forfeitures of share-based awards are recognized as they occur.

Deferred Financing Costs

Deferred financing costs are reflected net of the collateralized loan obligations and secured financing arrangements on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. These costs are amortized in interest expense using the interest method, or on a straight line basis when it approximates the interest method, over the shorter of the initial maturity of the obligation or financing arrangement.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash held in banks or invested in money market funds with original maturities of less than 90 days. The Company deposits its cash and cash equivalents with high credit quality institutions to minimize credit risk exposure. The Company maintains cash accounts at several financial institutions, which are insured up to a maximum of $250,000 per account as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018. The balances in these accounts may exceed the insured limits.

Restricted Cash

Restricted cash primarily represents deposit proceeds from potential borrowers which may be returned to borrowers, after deducting transaction costs paid by the Company for the benefit of the borrowers, upon the closing of a loan transaction.

Accounts Receivable from Servicer/Trustee

Accounts receivable from Servicer/Trustee represents cash proceeds from loan and CMBS and CRE CLO investment activities that have not been remitted to the Company based on contractual procedures previously agreed upon. Amounts are generally held by the Servicer/Trustee for less than 60 days before being remitted to the Company.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“ASU 2016-13”). ASU 2016-13 significantly changes how entities will measure credit losses for most financial assets and certain other instruments that are not measured at fair value through net income. ASU 2016-13 will replace the “incurred loss” model under existing guidance with an “expected loss” model for instruments measured at amortized cost, and require entities to record allowances for available-for-sale debt securities rather than reduce the carrying amount, as they do today under the other-than-temporary impairment model. Upon adoption, and resulting from this change, the Company expects that it will be required to record a loan loss reserve at origination or acquisition of an individual loan or a loan portfolio. ASU 2016-13 also simplifies the accounting model for purchased credit-impaired debt securities and loans. ASU 2016-13 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 and is to be adopted through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is effective. The Company is currently evaluating the impact ASU 2016-13 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

Loans Held for Investment

(3) Loans Held for Investment

The Company currently originates and acquires first mortgage and mezzanine loans secured by commercial properties. These loans can potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk as measured by various metrics, including without limitation property type collateralizing the loan, loan size, loans to a single sponsor and loans in a single geographic area. The Company’s loans held for investment are accounted for at amortized cost.

During the three months ended June 30, 2019, the Company originated or acquired eight loans with a total commitment of approximately $755.0 million (including a non-consolidated senior interest of $132.0 million), an initial unpaid principal balance of $507.8 million, and unfunded commitments at closing of $115.2 million. For the six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company originated or acquired 19 loans with a total commitment of approximately $1.5 billion (including a non-consolidated senior interest of $132.0 million), initial unpaid principal balance of $1.1 billion, and unfunded commitments at closing of $195.7 million. The following tables present an overview of the loan investment portfolio as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 (dollars in thousands):

During the three months ended June 30, 2019, the Company co-originated a $167.0 million construction loan, of which $132.0 million is accounted for as a non-consolidated senior interest. At closing, the Company retained a mezzanine loan investment with a total loan commitment of $35.0 million, an initial unpaid principal balance of $5.0 million, and an interest rate of LIBOR plus 10.3%.

At June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, there was no unamortized loan discount or premium included in loans held for investment at amortized cost on the consolidated balance sheets.

The table below summarizes the carrying values and results of the Company’s internal risk rating review performed as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 (dollars in thousands):

(1)	Weighted Average Risk Rating calculated based on carrying value at period end.

The weighted average risk rating at June 30, 2019 was 2.8, which was unchanged from the weighted average risk rating at December 31, 2018. During the three months ended June 30, 2019, two loans were moved from the Company’s Category 3 risk rating into its Category 2 risk rating, resulting from recent improvements in the operating performance of the underlying collateral. Additionally, during the three months ended June 30, 2019, the Company moved one loan from its Category 2 risk rating into its Category 3 risk rating, and three loans from its Category 3 risk rating into its Category 4 risk rating, based in three instances on a decline in operating performance of the underlying collateral during the current period, and in one instance due to recently enacted changes in New York City rent regulation whose impact on collateral performance is currently uncertain.

At June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, there were no loans on non-accrual status or that were impaired; thus, the Company did not record any allowance for loan losses.

Available-for-Sale Debt Securities

(4) Available-for-Sale Debt Securities

During the three months ended June 30, 2019, the Company purchased for short-term cash management and investment purposes 17 CRE CLO investments for an aggregate purchase price of $368.2 million. The purchased CRE CLO investments consist of floating rate debt securities which, in the aggregate, had a weighted average coupon of LIBOR plus 1.9%. For the six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company purchased 27 CRE CLO investments for an aggregate purchase price of $602.4 million which, in the aggregate, have a weighted average coupon of LIBOR plus 2.0%. The CRE CLO investments purchased during the current year consist solely of floating rate investment grade debt securities.

As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company had 31 and four CMBS and CRE CLO investments, respectively, designated as available-for-sale debt securities. Details of the carrying and fair values of the Company’s CMBS and CRE CLO investment portfolio are as follows (dollars in thousands):

	June 30, 2019
	Face Amount		Unamortized Premium (Discount), net		Gross Unrealized Gain (Loss)		Estimated Fair Value
Investments, at Fair Value
CMBS and CRE CLO Investments	$	677,800	$	145	$	1,233	$	679,178

Investments, at Fair Value
CMBS and CRE CLO Investments	$	76,404	$	(38	)	$	(1,985	)	$	74,381

CMBS and CRE CLO investment fair values are considered Level II fair value measurements within the fair value hierarchy of ASC 820-10. The CMBS and CRE CLO investment fair values are based upon multiple market, broker, and counterparty or pricing services quotations, which provide valuation estimates, based upon reasonable market order indications. The Company reviews the fair value quotations, which are subject to significant variability based on market conditions such as interest rates, credit spreads and market liquidity, for reasonableness and consistency.

The Company’s CMBS and CRE CLO investments have a weighted average contractual maturity, based on estimated fair value, of 16.4 years. The amortized cost and estimated fair value of the Company’s available-for-sale CMBS and CRE CLO investments by contractual maturity are shown in the following table (dollars in thousands):

	June 30, 2019
	Amortized Cost		Estimated Fair Value

As of June 30, 2019, four of the Company’s CMBS and CLO investment holdings were in an unrealized loss position. During the six months ended June 30, 2019 and year ended December 31, 2018, these CMBS and CLO investments traded at, or near, their carrying values, and interest and principal payments are current. Additionally, as of June 30, 2019, substantially all of the unrealized loss position relates to CMBS investments issued by a government sponsored enterprise. Currently, all of the underlying mortgage loans are performing. No other-than-temporary impairments were recognized through income during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 or the year ended December 31, 2018.

Variable Interest Entities and Collateralized Loan Obligations

(5) Variable Interest Entities and Collateralized Loan Obligations

On November 29, 2018 (the “FL2 Closing Date”), TPG RE Finance Trust CLO Sub-REIT, a subsidiary of the Company (“Sub-REIT”), entered into a collateralized loan obligation (“TRTX 2018-FL2”) through its wholly-owned subsidiaries TRTX 2018-FL2 Issuer, Ltd., an exempted company incorporated in the Cayman Islands with limited liability, as issuer (the “FL2 Issuer”), and TRTX 2018-FL2 Co-Issuer, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, as co-issuer (the “FL2 Co-Issuer” and together with the FL2 Issuer, the “FL2 Issuers”). On the FL2 Closing Date, FL2 Issuer issued $872.6 million principal amount of notes (the “FL2 Notes”). The FL2 Co-Issuer co-issued $795.1 million principal amount of investment grade-rated notes which were purchased by third party investors. Concurrently with the issuance of the FL2 Notes, the FL2 Issuer also issued preferred shares, par value $0.001 per share and with an aggregate liquidation preference and notional amount equal to $1,000 per share (the “FL2 Preferred Shares” and, together with the FL2 Notes, the “FL2 Securities”), to TRTX 2018-FL2 Retention Holder, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Sub-REIT (“FL2 Retention Holder”). Through FL2 Retention Holder, the Sub-REIT retained ownership of $205.0 million of FL2 Notes issued and FL2 Preferred Shares. Additionally, the Company currently holds as an investment $19.7 million (principal amount) of FL2 Notes, all of which were purchased during the three months ended March 31, 2019.

Proceeds from the issuance of the FL2 Securities were used by the FL2 Issuers to purchase two commercial real estate whole loans (the “FL2 Whole Loans”) and 23 fully-funded pari passu participations (the “FL2 Pari Passu Participations,” and, together with the FL2 Whole Loans and the FL2 Additional Interests (as defined below), the “FL2 Mortgage Assets”) in certain commercial real estate mortgage loans. The FL2 Mortgage Assets were purchased by the FL2 Issuer from TRTX CLO Loan Seller 2, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and an affiliate of the FL2 Issuers. TRTX 2018-FL2 contains a reinvestment feature that, subject to certain eligibility criteria, allows the Company to contribute new loans or participation interests (the “FL2 Additional Interests”) in loans to TRTX 2018-FL2 in exchange for cash, which provides additional liquidity to the Company to originate new loan investments as underlying loans repay.

For the three months ended June 30, 2019, the Company utilized the reinvestment feature twice, contributing FL2 Additional Interests of $69.5 million, and receiving net cash proceeds of $17.1 million, after the repayment of $52.4 million of existing borrowings, including accrued interest, secured by the FL2 Additional Interests. For the six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company utilized the reinvestment feature four times, contributing FL2 Additional Interests of $101.3 million, and receiving net cash proceeds of $23.5 million, after the repayment of $77.8 million of existing borrowings, including accrued interest, secured by the FL2 Additional Interests.

The Company incurred approximately $8.7 million of issuance costs which are amortized on an effective yield basis over the shorter of the remaining life of the loans that collateralized the FL2 Notes, or the FL2 Notes. As of June 30, 2019, the Company’s unamortized issuance costs were $7.3 million.

Interest expense on the outstanding FL2 Notes is payable monthly. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, interest expense (excluding amortization of deferred financing costs) of $7.6 million and $15.3 million, respectively, is included in the Company’s consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income.

As of June 30, 2019, FL2 Mortgage Assets represented 18.4% of the aggregate unpaid principal balance of the Company’s loan investment portfolio and had an aggregate principal balance of approximately $892.3 million.

On February 14, 2018 (the “FL1 Closing Date”), the Sub-REIT entered into a collateralized loan obligation (“TRTX 2018-FL1”) through its wholly-owned subsidiaries TPG Real Estate Finance 2018-FL1 Issuer, Ltd., an exempted company incorporated in the Cayman Islands with limited liability, as issuer (the “FL1 Issuer”), and TPG RE Finance Trust 2018-FL1 Co-Issuer, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, as co-issuer (the “FL1 Co-Issuer” and together with the FL1 Issuer, the “FL1 Issuers”). On the FL1 Closing Date, FL1 Issuer issued $820.5 million principal amount of notes (the “FL1 Notes”). The FL1 Co-Issuer co-issued $745.9 million principal amount of investment grade-rated notes which were purchased by third party investors. Concurrently with the issuance of the FL1 Notes, the FL1 Issuer also issued preferred shares, par value $0.001 per share and with an aggregate liquidation preference and notional amount equal to $1,000 per share (the “FL1 Preferred Shares” and, together with the FL1 Notes, the “FL1 Securities”), to TPG RE Finance Trust 2018-FL1 Retention Holder, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Sub-REIT (“FL1 Retention Holder”). Through FL1 Retention Holder, the Sub-REIT retained ownership of $186.5 million of the FL1 Notes issued and FL1 Preferred Shares. Additionally, the Company currently holds as an investment $8.5 million (principal amount) of FL1 Notes, of which $9.9 million were purchased during the three months ended March 31, 2019.

Proceeds from the issuance of the FL1 Securities were used by the FL1 Issuers to purchase one commercial real estate whole loan (the “FL1 Whole Loan”) and 25 fully-funded pari passu participations (the “FL1 Pari Passu Participations,” and, together with the FL1 Whole Loan and the FL1 Contributed Companion Participation Interests (as defined below), the “FL1 Mortgage Assets”) in certain commercial real estate mortgage loans. The FL1 Mortgage Assets were purchased by the FL1 Issuer from TPG RE Finance Trust CLO Loan Seller, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and an affiliate of the FL1 Issuers. TRTX 2018-FL1 contains a replenishment feature that, subject to certain limitations, allowed the Company to contribute companion participation interests (“FL1 Contributed Companion Participation Interests”) in loans in which TRTX 2018-FL1 already owned an interest in exchange for cash, which provided additional liquidity to the Company to originate new loan investments as underlying loans repay. As of June 30, 2019, the replenishment feature was fully utilized. Approximately 66.2%, or $325.5 million, of TRTX 2018-FL1 Class A Notes have repaid since the FL1 Closing Date.

The Company incurred approximately $9.8 million of issuance costs which are amortized on an effective yield basis over the shorter of the remaining life of the loans that collateralized the FL1 Notes, or the FL1 Notes. As of June 30, 2019, the Company’s unamortized issuance costs were $0.6 million.

Interest expense on the outstanding FL1 Notes is payable monthly. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, interest expense (excluding amortization of deferred financing costs) of $4.5 million and $9.9 million, respectively, is included in the Company’s consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income.

As of June 30, 2019, FL1 Mortgage Assets represent 10.5% of the aggregate unpaid principal balance of the Company’s loan investment portfolio and had an aggregate principal balance of approximately $509.5 million.

In accordance with ASC 810, the Company evaluated the key attributes of the FL2 Issuers and the FL1 Issuers to determine if they were VIEs and, if so, whether the Company was the primary beneficiary of their operating activities. This analysis caused the Company to conclude that the FL2 Issuers and FL1 Issuers were VIEs and that the Company was the primary beneficiary. The Company is the primary beneficiary of the VIEs because it has the ability to control the most significant activities of the FL2 Issuers and the FL1 Issuers, the obligation to absorb losses, and the right to receive benefits, that could potentially be significant to these entities. As a result, the Company consolidates the FL2 Issuers and FL1 Issuers.

The Company’s total assets and total liabilities as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 included the following VIE assets and liabilities of TRTX 2018-FL2 and TRTX 2018-FL1 (dollars in thousands):

Asset-Specific Financings

As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company had two and one asset-specific financing arrangements, respectively, to finance certain of its lending activities.

On April 2, 2019, the Company entered into an asset-specific financing with an institutional lender that is secured by one loan held for investment. The asset-specific financing does not provide for additional advances.

The BMO Harris asset-specific financing allows for additional advances up to a specified cap and is secured by one loan held for investment. Holdco has delivered a payment guarantee in favor of BMO Harris, the lender, as additional credit support for the financing. The liability of Holdco under this guarantee is generally capped at 25% of the outstanding obligations of the special purpose subsidiary which is the primary obligor under the financing. In addition, Holdco has delivered a non-recourse carveout guarantee, which can trigger recourse to Holdco as a result of certain “bad boy” defaults for losses incurred by BMO Harris or the entire outstanding obligations of the financing borrower, depending on the nature of the “bad boy” default in question.

The BMO Harris asset-specific financing at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 is guaranteed by Holdco, and the agreement includes guarantor covenants regarding liquid assets and net worth requirements. The Company was in compliance with all covenants as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018.

Secured Revolving Repurchase Agreements

The Company frequently utilizes secured revolving repurchase agreements to finance the direct origination or acquisition of commercial real estate mortgage loans, and CMBS and CRE CLO investments. Under these secured revolving repurchase agreements, the Company transfers all of its rights, title and interest in the loans, CMBS and CRE CLO investments to the repurchase counterparty in exchange for cash, and simultaneously agrees to reacquire the asset at a future date for an amount equal to the cash exchanged plus an interest factor. The repurchase counterparty collects all principal and interest on related loans or CMBS and CRE CLO investments and remits to the Company only the net after collecting its interest and other fees. The loan and CMBS and CRE CLO investments related secured revolving repurchase agreements are 25% and 100% recourse to Holdco, respectively.

At June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company had five secured revolving repurchase agreements to finance its loan investing activities. Credit spreads vary depending upon the collateral type and advance rate. Assets pledged at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 consisted of 53 and 51 mortgage loans, or participation interests therein, respectively. The Company’s secured revolving repurchase agreements secured by commercial mortgage loans are considered long-term borrowings.

At June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company had four and two secured revolving repurchase agreements to finance its CMBS and CRE CLO investment activities, of which the commitment amounts are based on the assets pledged. Credit spreads also vary depending upon the collateral type and advance rate. CMBS and CRE CLO investments pledged consisted of 27 CRE CLO investments and two CMBS investments at June 30, 2019 and two CMBS investments at December 31, 2018. The Company’s secured revolving repurchase agreements secured by CMBS and CRE CLO investments are considered short-term borrowings.

The following table summarizes certain characteristics of the Company’s secured revolving repurchase agreements secured by commercial mortgage loans and CMBS and CRE CLO investments, including counterparty concentration risks, at June 30, 2019 (dollars in thousands):

(8) Fair Value Measurements

The Company’s consolidated balance sheet includes Level I fair value measurements related to cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, and accrued liabilities. At June 30, 2019, the Company had $36.8 million invested in money market funds with original maturities of less than 90 days. The carrying values of these financial assets and liabilities are reasonable estimates of fair value because of the short-term maturities of these instruments. The consolidated balance sheet also includes Loans Held for Investment, the assets and liabilities of TRTX 2018-FL1 and TRTX 2018-FL2 (collateralized loan obligations as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018), and secured financing arrangements that are considered Level III fair value measurements that are not measured at fair value on a recurring basis, but are subject to fair value adjustments utilizing the fair value of the underlying collateral when there is evidence of impairment. The Company did not have any non-recurring fair value items as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018.

Level III fair values were determined based on standardized valuation models and significant unobservable market inputs, including holding period, discount rates based on LTV ratio, property type and loan pricing expectations developed by the Manager that were corroborated with other institutional lenders to determine a market spread that was added to the one-month LIBOR forward curve. There were no transfers of financial assets or liabilities within the fair value hierarchy during the three months ended June 30, 2019 or December 31, 2018.

At June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the estimated fair value of Loans Held for Investment was $4.9 billion and $4.3 billion, respectively. The weighted average gross spread at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 was 3.8% and 3.9%, respectively. The weighted average years to maturity at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 was 3.8 years and 3.9 years, respectively, assuming full extension of all loans.

At June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the carrying value of the secured financing agreements approximates fair value as current borrowing spreads reflect market terms. At June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the carrying value of the assets and liabilities of TRTX 2018-FL1 and TRTX 2018-FL2 approximates fair value as current borrowing spreads reflect market terms.

Income Taxes

(9) Income Taxes

The Company indirectly owns 100% of the equity of multiple taxable REIT subsidiaries (collectively “TRSs”), including certain of its TRTX 2018-FL1 and TRTX 2018-FL2 subsidiaries. Taxable REIT subsidiaries are subject to applicable U.S. federal, state, local and foreign income tax on their taxable income. In addition, as a REIT, the Company also may be subject to a 100% excise tax on certain transactions between it and its TRSs that are not conducted on an arm’s-length basis. The Company files income tax returns in the United States federal jurisdiction as well as various state and local jurisdictions. The filings are subject to normal reviews by regulatory agencies until the related statute of limitations expires, with open tax years for all years since the Company’s initial capitalization in 2014. The years open to examination generally range from 2015 to present.

ASC 740 also prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. ASC 740 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. The Company has analyzed its various federal and state filing positions and believes that its income tax filing positions and deductions are well documented and supported. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, based on the Company’s evaluation, there is no reserve for any uncertain income tax positions.

The Company’s policy is to classify interest and penalties associated with underpayment of U.S. federal and state income taxes, if any, as a component of general and administrative expense on its consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively the Company did not have interest or penalties associated with the underpayment of any income taxes.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, the Company incurred no federal, state and local tax expense relating to its TRSs. For the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, the Company recognized $0.2 million and $0.0 million, respectively, of federal, state and local tax expense. For the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, the Company recognized $0.4 million and $0.2 million, respectively, of federal, state and local tax expense. At June 30, 2019 and 2018, the Company’s effective tax rate was 0.7% and 0.4%, respectively.

At June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company had no deferred tax assets or liabilities.

Management Agreement

The Company is externally managed and advised by the Manager pursuant to the terms of a management agreement, dated July 25, 2017, between the Company and the Manager (as amended, the “Management Agreement”). On May 2, 2018, the Company and the Manager amended the Management Agreement solely for the purpose of amending the definitions of “Equity,” “Core Earnings” and “Incentive Compensation” in the Management Agreement. The changes were effected to include equity issued by subsidiaries of the Company in the definition of Equity, and to exclude distributions on equity issued by subsidiaries from the calculation of the Manager’s Incentive Compensation.

Pursuant to the Management Agreement, the Company pays the Manager a base management fee equal to the greater of $250,000 per annum ($62,500 per quarter) and 1.50% per annum (0.375% per quarter) of the Company’s “Equity.” The base management fee is payable in cash, quarterly in arrears. As amended, “Equity” means (a) the sum of (1) the net proceeds received by the Company and, without duplication, the Company’s subsidiaries, from all issuances of the Company’s and the subsidiaries’ equity securities, including for the avoidance of doubt issuances of common stock and Class A common stock by the Company prior to the completion of the Company’s initial public offering (for purposes of calculating this amount, the net proceeds received by the Company from all issuances of the Company’s outstanding common stock and Class A common stock prior to the completion of the Company’s initial public offering equals approximately $1.0 billion), plus (2) the value of contributions, including, without limitation, contributions of assets or interests in assets in exchange for equity securities, made by persons other than the Company or a subsidiary of the Company, from time to time, to the capital of the Company or another subsidiary of the Company plus (3) the Company’s cumulative Core Earnings for the period commencing on the completion of the Company’s initial public offering to the end of the most recently completed calendar quarter, and (b) less (1) any distributions made by the Company to the holders of the Company’s equity securities and any distributions made by the Company’s subsidiaries to the holders of the subsidiaries’ equity securities (other than to the Company or another subsidiary of the Company) following the completion of the Company’s initial public offering, (2) any amount that the Company or any of the Company’s subsidiaries has paid to repurchase for cash the Company’s common stock or Class A common stock following the completion of the Company’s initial public offering and (3) any Incentive Compensation earned by the Manager following the completion of the Company’s initial public offering. With respect to that portion of the period from and after the completion of the Company’s initial public offering that is used in the calculation of Incentive Compensation or the base management fee, all items in the foregoing sentence (other than the Company’s cumulative Core Earnings) will be calculated on a daily weighted average basis.

The Manager is entitled to incentive compensation which is calculated and payable in cash with respect to each calendar quarter following the completion of the Company’s initial public offering (or part thereof that the Management Agreement is in effect) in arrears in an amount, not less than zero, equal to the difference between: (1) the product of (a) 20% and (b) the difference between (i) the Company’s Core Earnings for the most recent 12-month period (or such lesser number of completed calendar quarters, if applicable), including the calendar quarter (or part thereof) for which the calculation of incentive compensation is being made (the “applicable period”), and (ii) the product of (A) the Company’s Equity in the most recent 12-month period (or such lesser number of completed calendar quarters, if applicable), including the applicable period, and (B) 7% per annum; and (2) the sum of any incentive compensation paid to the Manager with respect to the first three calendar quarters of the most recent 12-month period (or such lesser number of completed calendar quarters preceding the applicable period, if applicable). No incentive compensation is payable to the Manager with respect to any calendar quarter unless Core Earnings for the 12 most recently completed calendar quarters (or such lesser number of completed calendar quarters following the completion of the Company’s initial public offering) is greater than zero. For purposes of calculating the Manager’s incentive compensation, the Management Agreement, as amended, specifies that equity securities of the Company or any of the Company’s subsidiaries that are entitled to a specified periodic distribution or have other debt characteristics will not constitute equity securities and will not be included in “Equity” for the purpose of calculating incentive compensation. Instead, the aggregate distribution amount that accrues to such equity securities during the calendar quarter of such calculation will be subtracted from Core Earnings, before incentive compensation for purposes of calculating incentive compensation, unless such distribution is otherwise excluded from Core Earnings.

As amended, “Core Earnings” means the net income (loss) attributable to the holders of the Company’s common stock and Class A common stock and, without duplication, the holders of the Company’s subsidiaries’ equity securities (other than the Company or any of the Company’s subsidiaries), computed in accordance with GAAP, including realized gains and losses not otherwise included in net income (loss), and excluding (i) non-cash equity compensation expense, (ii) the Incentive Compensation, (iii) depreciation and amortization, (iv) any unrealized gains or losses or other similar non-cash items that are included in net income for the applicable period, regardless of whether such items are included in other comprehensive income or loss or in net income and (v) one-time events pursuant to changes in GAAP and certain material non-cash income or expense items, in each case after discussions between the Manager and the Company’s independent directors and approved by a majority of the Company’s independent directors.

The Company is required to reimburse the Manager or its affiliates for documented costs and expenses incurred by it and its affiliates on the Company’s behalf except those specifically required to be borne by the Manager or its affiliates under the Management Agreement. The Company’s reimbursement obligation is not subject to any dollar limitation. The Manager or its affiliates is responsible for, and the Company will not reimburse the Manager or its affiliates for, the expenses related to the personnel of the Manager and its affiliates who provide services to the Company. However, the Company will reimburse the Manager for the Company’s allocable share of the compensation (including, without limitation, annual base salary, bonus, any related withholding taxes and employee benefits) paid to (1) the Manager’s personnel serving as the Company’s chief financial officer based on the percentage of his or her time spent managing the Company’s affairs and (2) other corporate finance, tax, accounting, internal audit, legal risk management, operations, compliance and other non-investment personnel of the Manager or its affiliates who spend all or a portion of their time managing the Company’s affairs, based on the percentage of time devoted by such personnel to the Company’s and the Company’s subsidiaries’ affairs.

Termination Fee

A termination fee will be payable to the Manager upon termination of the Management Agreement by the Company absent a cause event. The termination fee would also be payable to the Manager upon termination of the Management Agreement by the Manager if the Company materially breaches the Management Agreement. The termination fee is equal to three times the sum of (x) the average annual base management fee and (y) the average annual incentive compensation earned by the Manager, in each case during the 24-month period immediately preceding the most recently completed calendar quarter prior to the date of termination or, if such termination occurs prior to July 25, 2019, and such termination fee is payable, the base management fees and the incentive compensation will be annualized for the period from July 25, 2017 to July 25, 2019 based on such fees actually received by the Manager during such period.

(11) Earnings per Share

The Company calculates its basic and diluted earnings per share using the two-class method for all periods presented, as the unvested restricted shares of its common stock granted to certain current and former employees and affiliates of the Manager, qualify as participating securities. These restricted shares have the same rights as the Company’s other shares of common stock and Class A common stock, including participating in any dividends, and therefore have been included in the Company’s basic and diluted earnings per share calculation. For the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, $0.1 million and $0.0 million, respectively of common stock dividends declared and undistributed net income attributable to common stockholders were allocated to unvested shares of our common stock pursuant to stock grants made under the Company’s Incentive Plan (see Note 13 for details). For the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, $0.3 million and $0.1 million, respectively of common stock dividends declared and undistributed net income attributable to common stockholders were allocated to unvested shares of our common stock pursuant to stock grants made under the Company’s Incentive Plan.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Policies)

6 Months Ended

Jun. 30, 2019

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Basis of Presentation

The interim consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). The interim consolidated financial statements include the Company’s accounts, consolidated variable interest entities for which the Company is the primary beneficiary, and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the interim consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires estimates of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the interim consolidated financial statements. Actual results could differ from management’s estimates, and such differences could be material. Significant estimates made in the interim consolidated financial statements include, but are not limited to: impairment; adequacy of provisions for loan losses; and valuation of financial instruments.

Principles of Consolidation

Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 810—Consolidation (“ASC 810”) provides guidance on the identification of a VIE (a variable interest entity for which control is achieved through means other than voting rights) and the determination of which business enterprise, if any, should consolidate the VIE. An entity is considered a VIE if any of the following applies: (1) the equity investors (if any) lack one or more of the essential characteristics of a controlling financial interest; (2) the equity investment at risk is insufficient to finance that entity’s activities without additional subordinated financial support; or (3) the equity investors have voting rights that are not proportionate to their economic interests and the activities of the entity involve or are conducted on behalf of an investor with a disproportionately small voting interest. The Company consolidates VIEs in which it is considered to be the primary beneficiary. The primary beneficiary is defined as the entity having both of the following characteristics: (1) the power to direct the activities that, when taken together, most significantly impact the VIE’s performance; and (2) the obligation to absorb losses and right to receive the returns from the VIE that would be significant to the VIE.

At each reporting date, the Company reconsiders its primary beneficiary conclusion to determine if its obligation to absorb losses of, or its rights to receive benefits from, the VIE could potentially be more than insignificant, and will consolidate or not consolidate accordingly (see Note 5 for details).

Revenue Recognition

Interest income on loans is accrued using the interest method based on the contractual terms of the loan, adjusted for credit impairment, if any. The objective of the interest method is to arrive at periodic interest income including recognition of fees and costs at a constant effective yield. Premiums, discounts, and origination fees are amortized or accreted into interest income over the lives of the loans using the interest method, or on a straight line basis when it approximates the interest method. Extension and modification fees are accreted into income on a straight line basis, when it approximates the interest method, over the related extension or modification period. Exit fees are accreted into income on a straight line basis, when it approximates the interest method, over the lives of the loans to which they relate unless they can be waived by the Company or a co-lender in connection with a loan refinancing. Prepayment penalties from borrowers are recognized as interest income when received. Certain of the Company’s loan investments have in the past and may in the future provide for additional interest based on the borrower’s operating cash flow or appreciation of the underlying collateral. Such amounts are considered contingent interest and are reflected as interest income only upon certainty of collection.

The Company considers a loan to be non-performing and places the loan on non-accrual status when: (1) management determines the borrower is incapable of, or has ceased efforts toward, curing the cause of a default; (2) the loan becomes 90 days delinquent; or (3) the loan experiences a maturity default. Based on the Company’s judgment as to the collectability of principal, a loan on non-accrual status is either accounted for on a cash basis, where interest income is recognized only upon receipt of cash for principal and interest payments, or on a cost-recovery basis, where all cash receipts reduce the loan’s carrying value, and interest income is only recorded when such carrying value has been fully recovered.

During the six months ended June 30, 2019 and the year end December 31, 2018, no loans were placed on non-accrual status and no losses or impairments were recorded to our loan portfolio.

Loans Held for Investment

Loans that the Company has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future, or until maturity or repayment, are reported at their outstanding principal balances net of any premiums, discounts, loan origination fees and loan loss allowances, if any. Loan origination fees and direct loan origination costs are deferred and recognized in interest income over the estimated life of the loans using the interest method, or on a straight line basis when it approximates the interest method, adjusted for actual prepayments.

The Company evaluates each loan classified as a loan held for investment for impairment on a quarterly basis. Impairment occurs when it is deemed probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan. If the loan is considered to be impaired, a loan loss allowance is recorded to reduce the carrying value of the loan to the present value of the expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s contractual effective rate, or the fair value of the collateral securing the impaired loan, less estimated costs to sell such collateral, if recovery of the Company’s investment is expected solely from the sale of such collateral. As part of the quarterly impairment review, the Company evaluates the risk of each loan and assigns a risk rating based on a variety of factors, grouped as follows to include, among other factors: (i) loan and credit structure, including the as-is loan-to-value (“LTV”) ratio and structural features; (ii) quality and stability of real estate value and operating cash flow, including debt yield, property type, dynamics of the geographic, property-type and local market, physical condition, stability of cash flow, leasing velocity and quality and diversity of tenancy; (iii) performance against underwritten business plan; and (iv) quality, experience and financial condition of sponsor, borrower and guarantor(s). Based on a 5-point scale, the Company’s loans are rated “1” through “5,” from least risk to greatest risk, respectively, which ratings are defined as follows:

1-

Outperform—Exceeds performance metrics (for example, technical milestones, occupancy, rents, net operating income) included in original or current credit underwriting and business plan;

2-

Meets or Exceeds Expectations—Collateral performance meets or exceeds substantially all performance metrics included in original or current underwriting / business plan;

3-

Satisfactory—Collateral performance meets or is on track to meet underwriting; business plan is met or can reasonably be achieved;

4-

Underperformance—Collateral performance falls short of original underwriting, material differences exist from business plan, or both; technical milestones have been missed; defaults may exist, or may soon occur absent material improvement; and

5-

Risk of Impairment/Default—Collateral performance is significantly worse than underwriting; major variance from business plan; loan covenants or technical milestones have been breached; timely exit from loan via sale or refinancing is questionable.

Since Inception, the Company has not recognized any impairments on its loan portfolio and has not recorded any loan loss allowances against any of the loans in its portfolio. The Company’s determination of asset-specific loan loss reserves, should any such reserves be necessary, relies on material estimates regarding the fair value of loan collateral. Such losses could be caused by various factors, including, but not limited to, unanticipated adverse changes in the economy or events adversely affecting specific assets, borrowers, industries in which our borrowers operate or markets in which our borrowers or their properties are located. Significant judgment is required when evaluating loans for impairment.

The Company’s loans are typically collateralized by real estate, or in the case of mezzanine loans, by a partnership or similar equity interest in an entity that owns real estate. As a result, the Company regularly evaluates on a loan-by-loan basis the extent and impact of any credit deterioration associated with the performance and/or value of the underlying collateral property as well as the financial and operating capability of the borrower/sponsor. The Company also evaluates the financial strength of loan guarantors, if any, and the borrower’s competency in managing and operating the property or properties. In addition, the Company considers the overall economic environment, real estate sector, and geographic sub-market in which the borrower operates. Such impairment analyses are completed and reviewed by asset management personnel and evaluated by senior management, who utilize various data sources, including (i) periodic financial data such as property occupancy, tenant profile, rental rates, operating expenses, the borrower’s exit plan, and capitalization and discount rates, (ii) site inspections, (iii) sales and financing comparables, (iv) current credit spreads for refinancing and (v) other market data.

Commercial Mortgage-Backed and Commercial Real Estate Collateralized Loan Obligation Securities

The Company acquires CMBS and CRE CLO investments primarily for cash management purposes, and also for investment purposes. The Company designates CMBS and CRE CLO investments as available-for-sale on the acquisition date. CMBS and CRE CLO investments that are classified as available-for-sale are recorded at fair value through other comprehensive income (loss) in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Additionally, CMBS and CRE CLO investments that are not classified as held-to-maturity and which the Company does not hold for the purpose of selling in the near-term, but may dispose of prior to maturity, are also designated as available-for-sale and are carried at fair value. The Company’s recognition of interest income from its CMBS and CRE CLO investments, including its amortization of premium and discount, follows the Company’s revenue recognition policy as described under “Revenue Recognition” above. The Company uses a specific identification method when determining the cost of a security sold and the amount of unrealized gain or loss reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) into earnings. Unrealized losses on securities that, in the judgment of management, are other than temporary are charged against earnings as a loss in the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. Significant valuation inputs are Level II in the fair value hierarchy as described below under “Fair Value Measurements”.

Portfolio Financing Arrangements

The Company finances certain loan and CMBS and CRE CLO investments using secured revolving repurchase agreements, asset-specific financing arrangements, senior secured and secured credit agreements, collateralized loan obligations, and a term loan facility. The related borrowings are recorded as separate liabilities on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Interest income earned on the investments and interest expense incurred on the related borrowings are reported separately on the Company’s consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income.

In certain instances, the Company creates structural leverage through the co-origination or non-recourse syndication of a senior loan interest to a third party. For all such syndications the Company has completed through June 30, 2019, the Company has transferred 100% of the senior mortgage loan that the Company originated on a non-recourse basis to a third-party lender and has retained as a loan investment a separate mezzanine loan investment secured by a pledge of the equity in the mortgage borrower. With respect to the senior mortgage loan transferred, the Company retains: no control over the mortgage loan; no economic interest in the mortgage loan; and no recourse to the purchaser or the borrower. Consequently, based on these circumstances and because the Company does not have any continuing involvement with the transferred senior mortgage loan, these syndications are accounted for as sales under GAAP and are removed from the Company’s consolidated financial statements at the time of transfer. The Company’s consolidated balance sheets only include the separate mezzanine loan remaining after the transfer, and not the non-consolidated senior loan interest sold or co-originated that the Company transferred.

As of December 31, 2018, the Company revised its “Note Payable” naming convention in its consolidated balance sheet to “Asset-Specific Financings”. No amounts reported in prior periods were reclassified between financial statement line items and there was no impact to the Company’s consolidated financial statements resulting from this naming convention change during the current fiscal year.

Fair Value Measurements

The Company follows ASC 820-10, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820-10”), for its holdings of financial instruments. ASC 820-10 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with GAAP and expands disclosure of fair value measurements. ASC 820-10 determines fair value to be the price that would be received for a financial instrument in a current sale, which assumes an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The Company determines the estimated fair value of financial assets and liabilities using the three-tier fair value hierarchy established by GAAP, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. GAAP establishes market-based or observable inputs as the preferred source of values followed by valuation models using management assumptions in the absence of market inputs. The financial instruments recorded at fair value on a recurring basis in the Company’s consolidated financial statements are cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and available-for-sale CMBS and CRE CLO investments. The three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value are as follows:

Level I—Valuations based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access.

Level II—Valuations based on quoted prices in markets that are not active or for which all significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly.

Level III—Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement.

For certain financial instruments, the various inputs that management uses to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, the determination of which category within the fair value hierarchy is appropriate for such financial instrument is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the financial instrument. The Company may use valuation techniques consistent with the market and income approaches to measure the fair value of its assets and liabilities. The market approach uses third-party valuations and information obtained from market transactions involving identical or similar assets or liabilities. The income approach uses projections of the future economic benefits of an instrument to determine its fair value, such as in the discounted cash flow methodology. The inputs or methodology used for valuing financial instruments are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in these financial instruments. Transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy are assumed to occur at the end of the reporting period.

Income Taxes

The Company qualifies and has elected to be taxed as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, commencing with its initial taxable year ended December 31, 2014. To the extent that it annually distributes at least 90% of its REIT taxable income to stockholders and complies with various other requirements as a REIT, the Company generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income taxes on its distributed REIT taxable income. If the Company fails to continue to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year and does not qualify for certain statutory relief provisions, the Company will be subject to U.S. federal and state income taxes at regular corporate rates beginning with the year in which it fails to qualify and may be precluded from being able to elect to be treated as a REIT for the Company’s four subsequent taxable years. Even though the Company currently qualifies for taxation as a REIT, the Company may be subject to certain U.S. federal, state, local and foreign taxes on the Company’s income and property and to U.S. federal income and excise taxes on the Company’s undistributed REIT taxable income.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the periods in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the period in which the enactment date occurs. Under ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes (“ASC 740”), a valuation allowance is established when management believes it is more likely than not that a deferred tax asset will not be realized. The Company intends to continue to operate in a manner consistent with, and to continue to meet the requirements to be treated as, a REIT for tax purposes and to distribute all of its REIT taxable income. Accordingly, the Company does not expect to pay corporate level federal taxes.

Earnings per Common Share

The Company utilizes the two-class method when assessing participating securities to calculate earnings per common share. Basic and diluted earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income attributable to common stockholders (i.e., holders of common stock and Class A common stock), by the weighted-average number of common shares (both common stock and Class A common stock) outstanding during the period. The preferences, rights, voting powers, restrictions, limitations as to dividends and other distributions, qualifications and terms and conditions of redemption of the Class A common stock are identical to the common stock, except (1) the Class A common stock is not a “margin security” as defined in Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the U.S. Federal Reserve System (and rulings and interpretations thereunder) and may not be listed on a national securities exchange or a national market system and (2) each share of Class A common stock is convertible at any time or from time to time, at the option of the holder, for one fully paid and non-assessable share of common stock. The Class A common stock votes together with the common stock as a single class. Shares of Class A common stock have been issued to, and are owned by, TPG RE Finance Trust Management, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the “Manager”), and certain individuals or entities who are or were affiliated with the Manager, and the sale or conversion to common stock by investors of such shares of Class A common stock is subject to certain restrictions.

Diluted earnings per common share is calculated by including the effect of dilutive securities. The Company accounts for unvested share-based payment awards that contain non-forfeitable dividend rights or dividend equivalents (whether paid or unpaid) as participating securities, which are included in the computation of earnings per share pursuant to the two-class method.

Share-Based Compensation

Share-based compensation consists of awards issued by the Company to certain employees of affiliates of our Manager and certain members of our Board of Directors. These share-based awards generally vest in installments over a fixed period of time. Compensation expense is recognized in net income on a straight-line basis over the applicable awards’ vesting period. Forfeitures of share-based awards are recognized as they occur.

Deferred Financing Costs

Deferred financing costs are reflected net of the collateralized loan obligations and secured financing arrangements on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. These costs are amortized in interest expense using the interest method, or on a straight line basis when it approximates the interest method, over the shorter of the initial maturity of the obligation or financing arrangement.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash held in banks or invested in money market funds with original maturities of less than 90 days. The Company deposits its cash and cash equivalents with high credit quality institutions to minimize credit risk exposure. The Company maintains cash accounts at several financial institutions, which are insured up to a maximum of $250,000 per account as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018. The balances in these accounts may exceed the insured limits.

Restricted Cash

Restricted cash primarily represents deposit proceeds from potential borrowers which may be returned to borrowers, after deducting transaction costs paid by the Company for the benefit of the borrowers, upon the closing of a loan transaction.

Accounts Receivable from Servicer/Trustee

Accounts receivable from Servicer/Trustee represents cash proceeds from loan and CMBS and CRE CLO investment activities that have not been remitted to the Company based on contractual procedures previously agreed upon. Amounts are generally held by the Servicer/Trustee for less than 60 days before being remitted to the Company.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“ASU 2016-13”). ASU 2016-13 significantly changes how entities will measure credit losses for most financial assets and certain other instruments that are not measured at fair value through net income. ASU 2016-13 will replace the “incurred loss” model under existing guidance with an “expected loss” model for instruments measured at amortized cost, and require entities to record allowances for available-for-sale debt securities rather than reduce the carrying amount, as they do today under the other-than-temporary impairment model. Upon adoption, and resulting from this change, the Company expects that it will be required to record a loan loss reserve at origination or acquisition of an individual loan or a loan portfolio. ASU 2016-13 also simplifies the accounting model for purchased credit-impaired debt securities and loans. ASU 2016-13 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 and is to be adopted through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is effective. The Company is currently evaluating the impact ASU 2016-13 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

Termination fee, description

A termination fee will be payable to the Manager upon termination of the Management Agreement by the Company absent a cause event. The termination fee would also be payable to the Manager upon termination of the Management Agreement by the Manager if the Company materially breaches the Management Agreement. The termination fee is equal to three times the sum of (x) the average annual base management fee and (y) the average annual incentive compensation earned by the Manager, in each case during the 24-month period immediately preceding the most recently completed calendar quarter prior to the date of termination or, if such termination occurs prior to July 25, 2019, and such termination fee is payable, the base management fees and the incentive compensation will be annualized for the period from July 25, 2017 to July 25, 2019 based on such fees actually received by the Manager during such period

Incentive management fee, description

The Manager is entitled to incentive compensation which is calculated and payable in cash with respect to each calendar quarter following the completion of the Company’s initial public offering (or part thereof that the Management Agreement is in effect) in arrears in an amount, not less than zero, equal to the difference between: (1) the product of (a) 20% and (b) the difference between (i) the Company’s Core Earnings for the most recent 12-month period (or such lesser number of completed calendar quarters, if applicable), including the calendar quarter (or part thereof) for which the calculation of incentive compensation is being made (the “applicable period”), and (ii) the product of (A) the Company’s Equity in the most recent 12-month period (or such lesser number of completed calendar quarters, if applicable), including the applicable period, and (B) 7% per annum; and (2) the sum of any incentive compensation paid to the Manager with respect to the first three calendar quarters of the most recent 12-month period (or such lesser number of completed calendar quarters preceding the applicable period, if applicable). No incentive compensation is payable to the Manager with respect to any calendar quarter unless Core Earnings for the 12 most recently completed calendar quarters (or such lesser number of completed calendar quarters following the completion of the Company’s initial public offering) is greater than zero. For purposes of calculating the Manager’s incentive compensation, the Management Agreement, as amended, specifies that equity securities of the Company or any of the Company’s subsidiaries that are entitled to a specified periodic distribution or have other debt characteristics will not constitute equity securities and will not be included in “Equity” for the purpose of calculating incentive compensation. Instead, the aggregate distribution amount that accrues to such equity securities during the calendar quarter of such calculation will be subtracted from Core Earnings, before incentive compensation for purposes of calculating incentive compensation, unless such distribution is otherwise excluded from Core Earnings.
