| Loans | Loans Our loans held-for-investment are accounted for at amortized cost and our loans held-for-sale are accounted for at the lower of cost or fair value, unless we have elected the fair value option for either. The following tables summarize our investments in mortgages and loans as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025 (dollars in thousands):
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ (1)Calculated using applicable index rates as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025 for variable rate loans and excludes loans for which interest income is not recognized. (2)Represents the WAL of each respective group of loans, excluding loans for which interest income is not recognized, as of the respective balance sheet date. For commercial loans held-for-investment, the WAL is calculated assuming all extension options are exercised by the borrower, although our loans may be repaid prior to such date. For infrastructure loans, the WAL is calculated using the amounts and timing of future principal payments, as projected at origination or acquisition of each loan. (3)First mortgages include first mortgage loans and any contiguous mezzanine loan components because as a whole, the expected credit quality of these loans is more similar to that of a first mortgage loan. The application of this methodology resulted in mezzanine loans with carrying values of $1.4 billion and $1.3 billion being classified as first mortgages as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. (4)Subordinated mortgages include B-Notes and junior participation in first mortgages where we do not own the senior A-Note or senior participation. If we own both the A-Note and B-Note, we categorize the loan as a first mortgage loan. (5)Residential loans have a weighted average remaining contractual life of 25.6 years and 25.8 years as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. As of March 31, 2026, our variable rate loans held-for-investment, excluding loans for which interest income is not recognized, were as follows (dollars in thousands):
Credit Loss Allowances As discussed in Note 2, we do not have a history of realized credit losses on our HFI loans and HTM securities, so we have subscribed to third party database services to provide us with industry losses for both commercial real estate and infrastructure loans. Using these losses as a benchmark, we determine expected credit losses for our loans and securities on a collective basis within our commercial real estate and infrastructure portfolios. For our commercial loans, we utilize a loan loss model that is widely used among banks and commercial mortgage REITs and is marketed by a leading CMBS data analytics provider. It employs logistic regression to forecast expected losses at the loan level based on a commercial real estate loan securitization database that contains activity dating back to 1998. We provide specific loan-level inputs which include loan-to-stabilized-value (“LTV”) and debt service coverage ratio (DSCR) metrics, as well as principal balances, property type, location, coupon, origination year, term, subordination, expected repayment dates and future fundings. We also select from a group of independent five-year macroeconomic forecasts included in the model that are updated regularly based on current economic trends. We categorize the results by LTV range, which we consider the most significant indicator of credit quality for our commercial loans, as set forth in the credit quality indicator table below. A lower LTV ratio typically indicates a lower credit loss risk. The macroeconomic forecasts do not differentiate among property types or asset classes. Instead, these forecasts reference general macroeconomic conditions (i.e. Gross Domestic Product, employment and interest rates) which apply broadly across all assets. For instance, the office sector has been adversely affected by the increase in remote working arrangements, the retail sector has been adversely affected by electronic commerce and the multifamily sector has been strained by sustained higher interest rates. The broad macroeconomic forecasts do not account for such differentiation. Accordingly, we have selected more adverse macroeconomic recovery forecasts for these property types than others in determining our credit loss allowance. For our infrastructure loans, we utilize a database of historical infrastructure loan performance that is shared among a consortium of banks and other lenders and compiled by a major bond credit rating agency. The database is representative of industry-wide project finance activity dating back to 1983. We derive historical loss rates from the database filtered by industry, sub-industry, term and construction status for each of our infrastructure loans. Those historical loss rates reflect global economic cycles over a long period of time as well as average recovery rates. We categorize the results principally between the power and oil and gas industries, which we consider the most significant indicator of credit quality for our infrastructure loans, as set forth in the credit quality indicator table below. As discussed in Note 2, we use a discounted cash flow or collateral value approach, rather than the collective pool approach described above, to determine credit loss allowances for any credit deteriorated loans. The significant credit quality indicators for our loans measured at amortized cost, which excludes loans held-for-sale, were as follows as of March 31, 2026 (dollars in thousands):
Non-Credit Deteriorated Loans As of March 31, 2026, we had three commercial loans with a combined amortized cost basis of $641.4 million along with $74.3 million of residential loans that were 90 days or greater past due. All of these loans were on nonaccrual as of March 31, 2026, except for a commercial loan with an amortized cost basis of $270.7 million, for which we acquired the additional remaining senior mortgage interest of $143.8 million from a third party lender during the quarter in order to preserve our rights as the mezzanine lender. We also had four commercial loans with a combined amortized cost basis of $433.0 million on nonaccrual that were not 90 days or greater past due as of March 31, 2026. None of these loans were considered credit deteriorated. As of December 31, 2025, we had a total of $967.7 million of non-credit deteriorated loans on nonaccrual. During the quarter, no additional non-credit deteriorated commercial loans were placed on nonaccrual, and a $242.4 million commercial loan was resolved through foreclosure (see related discussion below). Credit Deteriorated Loans As of March 31, 2026, we had two loans with a combined amortized cost basis of $40.8 million which were deemed credit deteriorated and are on nonaccrual under the cost recovery method: (i) a $35.9 million commercial mezzanine loan on an office portfolio in Ireland placed on nonaccrual during 2025, for which we assigned a $27.2 million specific credit loss allowance in late 2025, based on a third party purchase of a portion of the mezzanine loan. The loan was deemed credit deteriorated based on the terms of a modification whereby the sponsor will not fund future debt service shortfalls or capital expenditures; and (ii) a $4.9 million commercial subordinated loan secured by a department store in Chicago which was deemed credit deteriorated and was fully reserved in prior years. During the quarter, a $90.7 million credit deteriorated commercial loan previously placed on nonaccrual with a $19.7 million specific reserve was resolved through foreclosure (see related discussion below). Foreclosure and Equity Control During the three months ended March 31, 2026, we foreclosed on or otherwise obtained control over the following loan collateral and recorded properties and associated assets and liabilities in accordance with the asset acquisition provisions of ASC 805: In March 2026, we foreclosed on a first mortgage loan on a multifamily property in Dallas, Texas. The net carrying value of our loan related to this property (including previously accrued interest) totaled $28.4 million, net of a specific credit loss allowance of $5.3 million provided during the three months ended March 31, 2026 based on a third party appraisal. In connection with the foreclosure, we recorded properties of $28.6 million and net liabilities of $0.2 million. In February 2026, we foreclosed on a first mortgage loan on a mixed use property in Dallas, Texas, split evenly between multifamily and hospitality. The net carrying value of our loan related to this property (including previously accrued interest) totaled $247.9 million. In connection with the foreclosure, we recorded properties of $247.9 million. This loan was previously placed on nonaccrual in 2024. In January 2026, we foreclosed on a first mortgage loan on a multifamily property in Phoenix, Arizona. The net carrying value of our loan related to this property totaled $71.0 million, net of a specific credit loss allowance of $19.7 million provided during the year ended December 31, 2025 based on a third party appraisal. In connection with the foreclosure, we recorded properties of $71.0 million. This loan was previously placed on nonaccrual in 2025. Loan Modifications We may amend or modify a loan based on its specific facts and circumstances. The modified terms and subsequent performance of the modified loans are considered in the determination of our general and specific CECL reserves. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, we made modifications to one commercial loan disclosable under ASU 2022-02, Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, we entered into a modification of a commercial loan that required disclosure pursuant to ASU 2022-02. The loan had an amortized cost basis of $88.5 million, representing 0.53% of our commercial loans as of March 31, 2026. We granted an other-than-insignificant payment delay in the form of an initial maturity term extension from January 2026 to October 2028, reduced the interest rate by 95 bps and included minimum required paydowns. The interest rate reduction is fully recovered in a new exit fee. Performance of Previously Modified Loans: Loans with modifications disclosed in the previous twelve months under ASU 2022-02 are performing in accordance with their modified terms through March 31, 2026. Other Modifications: While not required to be disclosed pursuant to ASU 2022-02 because the financial difficulty criteria is not met, we modified three loans and a portfolio of four cross collateralized loans during the three months ended March 31, 2026 by reducing the interest rate spread on the loans, with such reductions partially or fully recoverable by new exit fees. The amortized cost basis of these loans totaled $595.8 million. In each case, the borrowers contributed additional equity in order to receive the modifications. There were no such modifications made during the three months ended March 31, 2025.
