Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
ORGANIZATION	ORGANIZATION Advanced Flower Capital Inc. (the “Company” or “AFC”) is an institutional lender that was founded in July 2020 by a veteran team of investment professionals. The Company primarily originates, structures, underwrites, invests in and manages senior secured mortgage loans and other types of loans and debt securities, with a specialization in loans to cannabis industry operators in states that have legalized medical and/or adult-use cannabis. The Company is a Maryland corporation and completed its initial public offering (the “IPO”) in March 2021. The Company is externally managed by AFC Management, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Manager”), pursuant to the terms of the Amended and Restated Management Agreement, dated January 14, 2021, between the parties (as amended from time to time, the “Management Agreement”). The Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, AFCG TRS1, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“TRS1”), operates as a taxable real estate investment trust subsidiary (a “TRS”). TRS1 began operating in July 2021, and the financial statements of TRS1 are consolidated within the Company’s consolidated financial statements. On July 9, 2024, the Company completed the spin-off (the “Spin-Off”) of the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Sunrise Realty Trust, Inc. (“SUNS”), which held the Company’s commercial real estate (“CRE”) loan portfolio, into an independent, publicly traded REIT, SUNS. In connection with the Spin-Off, the operating results of the SUNS business through the date of the Spin-Off are reported in net income from discontinued operations, net of tax in the consolidated statements of operations for all periods presented. The related assets and liabilities are reported as assets and liabilities of discontinued operations on the consolidated balance sheets. Cash flows from the Company’s discontinued operations are presented as such in the consolidated statements of cash flows for all periods presented. Unless otherwise noted, all amounts and disclosures included in the notes to consolidated financial statements reflect only the Company’s continuing operations. For additional information, see Note 16, “Discontinued Operations.” During the reporting period, the Company operated in one operating segment. The Company focused on senior secured loans to cannabis industry operators in states where medical and/or adult-use cannabis is legal. These loans are generally held for investment and are typically secured, directly or indirectly, by real estate, equipment, cash flows and the value associated with licenses (where applicable) and/or other assets of borrowers depending on the applicable laws and regulations governing such borrowers. The Company has elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) for United States federal income tax purposes under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). The Company generally will not be subject to United States federal income taxes on its REIT taxable income as long as it annually distributes all of its REIT taxable income prior to the deduction for dividends paid to shareholders and complies with various other requirements as a REIT. At a meeting of the Board of Directors (the “Board”) on August 12, 2025 (the “August Meeting”), the Board approved the sixth amendment to the Company’s existing Management Agreement (the “Sixth Amendment”) to expand the Company’s investment strategy. Accordingly, under the Sixth Amendment, the Company expanded its investment strategy and intends to additionally originate, structure, underwrite, invest in and manage senior secured mortgage loans and other types of loans and debt securities to companies ancillary to the cannabis industry as well as companies outside of the cannabis industry. Businesses ancillary to the cannabis industry may include, but are not limited to, brand developers, business services providers, and equipment and consumables providers. The Company believes there are also attractive lending opportunities in companies ancillary to and outside of the cannabis industry that could generate attractive risk-adjusted returns. The investment team has over 30 years of experience in direct lending outside of the cannabis industry across $10 billion of transactions. By expanding the investment mandate, the Company expects to be able to diversify its exposure across industries and credit risk profiles while maintaining deal selectivity. The Company may make investments in accordance with this expanded investment strategy to the extent consistent with maintaining its eligibility to continue to qualify as a REIT under the Code and maintain our exemption from registration under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (“1940 Act”). At a meeting held on August 12, 2025, the Board, including a majority of the directors who are not “interested persons” of the Company (as that term is defined under the Investment Company Act of 1940), unanimously approved, subject to the approval of the Company’s shareholders, a new Investment Advisory Agreement between the Company and the Manager. If approved by the shareholders, the new Investment Advisory Agreement would enable the Company to operate as a BDC under the 1940 Act, as discussed further below in “Note 18—Subsequent Events”.
