Exhibit 99.4
UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL INFORMATION
On April 29, 2026, ACRES Commercial Realty Corp. (“ACR”) and ACRES Holdings Sub LLC, a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of ACR (“Merger Sub”), on the one hand, and ACRES Capital Corp., a Delaware corporation (“ACC”), and ACRES Capital, LLC, a New York limited liability company (“Manager”) and subsidiary of ACC, on the other hand, entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (“Agreement”). Pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Agreement, upon the closing on August 6, 2026, ACC merged with and into Merger Sub, with Merger Sub being the surviving entity (the “Internalization Merger”) and a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of ACR. At the time the Internalization Merger became effective (the “Effective Time”), (i) each outstanding share of ACC common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “ACC Common Stock”), was converted into 2.61882 shares of ACR common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “ACR Common Stock”), subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Agreement.
The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined consolidated financial information and explanatory notes (“the unaudited pro forma financial information”) have been prepared to illustrate the effects of the Internalization Merger under the acquisition method of accounting, with ACR treated as the accounting acquirer. The unaudited pro forma financial information has been prepared by ACR in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The unaudited pro forma financial information gives effect to the Internalization Merger as follows:
•The unaudited pro forma condensed combined consolidated balance sheet, as of June 30, 2026, combines the historical consolidated balance sheets of both ACR and ACC, giving effect to the Internalization Merger as if the transaction had occurred on June 30, 2026.
•The unaudited pro forma condensed combined consolidated statements of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2026, and for the year ended December 31, 2025, combines the historical operating results of ACR and ACC, giving effect to the Internalization Merger as if the transaction occurred on January 1, 2025. Certain reclassifications have been made to ACC’s historical financial information in order to conform to ACR’s presentation of financial information.
The unaudited pro forma financial information is presented for illustrative purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of the results of operations or financial condition had the Internalization Merger been completed on the dates described above, nor is it necessarily indicative of the results of operations in future periods or the future financial condition of the combined entities following the close of the Internalization Merger.
Acquisition accounting is dependent upon certain valuations and other studies that have yet to commence or progress to a state where there is sufficient information for the definitive measurement of such valuations and other studies. Accordingly, the unaudited pro forma financial information includes estimated adjustments, including adjustments to record assets and liabilities of ACC at their fair value, and represents the pro forma estimates by ACR, based on available fair value information. The unaudited pro forma financial information also does not reflect the benefits of expected cost savings or any potential impacts of potential revenue enhancements and, accordingly, does not attempt to predict or suggest future results.
The value of ACR common shares issued as consideration in the Internalization Merger is based on the closing price of ACR’s common shares at the Effective Time of the Internalization Merger. The Internalization Merger was completed on August 6, 2026.
The pro forma adjustments included in the unaudited pro forma financial information are subject to change depending on changes in the components of assets and liabilities, and as additional information becomes available and additional analyses are performed. The allocation of the purchase price for the Internalization Merger, which has not been finalized and is anticipated to occur during the third quarter of 2026, will be based on the actual valuations of the tangible and intangible assets and liabilities that exist as of the date of completion of the Internalization Merger. Differences between these preliminary estimates and adjustments and the final acquisition accounting will occur, and these differences could have a material impact on the unaudited pro forma financial information and ACR’s future results of operations and financial condition.
The unaudited pro forma financial information should be read in conjunction with (i) the accompanying notes to unaudited pro forma condensed combined consolidated financial information; (ii) ACR’s and ACC’s unaudited historical consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2026; and (iii) ACR’s and ACC’s audited historical consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes as of and for the year ended December 31, 2025.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL INFORMATION
(in thousands, except share data)
Note 1 - Description of Transaction
On April 29, 2026, ACR, ACC, Manager and the Merger Sub entered into a merger agreement that provides for the acquisition of ACC and the Manager by ACR. Subject to approval of ACR and ACC stockholders, which approval has been received, and the satisfaction or (to the extent permitted by law) waiver of certain other closing conditions which was completed on August 6, 2026, ACR acquired ACC through the merger of ACC with and into Merger Sub, with Merger Sub being the surviving entity and a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of ACR. Under the Agreement, each outstanding share of ACC common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “ACC Common Stock”), was converted into 2.61882 shares of ACR common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “ACR Common Stock”), subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Agreement. The existing management agreement between ACR, the Manager and ACC was terminated upon closing of the Internalization Merger and ACR is no longer externally managed.
Note 2 - Basis of Presentation
The unaudited pro forma financial information was prepared using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations, and was derived from ACR’s and ACC’s historical unaudited financial statements for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and ACR’s and ACC’s historical audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025. ACR has been determined to be the accounting acquirer in the Internalization Merger and has preliminarily estimated the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed from ACC. Applying the acquisition method includes recording the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their fair values, and recording goodwill for the excess of the purchase price over the aggregate fair value of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the Internalization Merger. Additionally, the accompanying unaudited pro forma financial information was prepared in accordance with Article 11 of the Regulation S-X.
Historical transactions between ACR and ACC during the periods presented in the unaudited pro forma financial information have been eliminated. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined consolidated financial statements do not necessarily reflect what the combined company’s financial condition or results of operations would have been had the Internalization Merger occurred on the dates indicated nor do they reflect the realization of any expected cost savings or other synergies from the acquisition of ACC and other planned cost saving initiatives following the completion of the Internalization Merger. They also may not be useful in predicting the future financial condition and results of operations of the combined company. ACR’s actual financial condition and results of operations may differ significantly from the pro forma amounts reflected herein due to a variety of factors.
At this time, ACR is not aware of any material differences in accounting policies and financial statement classifications that would have a material impact on the pro forma financial information. ACR is still in the process of performing its full review of ACC's accounting policies to determine whether there are material differences that require modification or reclassification of ACC’s revenues, expenses, assets or liabilities to conform to ACR’s accounting policies and classifications; and as a result of that review, ACR may identify differences between the accounting policies of ACR and ACC that when conformed, could have a material impact on the pro forma financial information.
Note 3 - Consideration Transferred and Preliminary Purchase Price Allocation
The Internalization Merger was approved by ACR’s shareholders at its annual meeting on June 22, 2026 and was completed on August 6, 2026. In connection with the Internalization Merger, ACR issued approximately 7.5 million shares of ACR’s common stock in exchange for all of the outstanding shares of ACC. In connection with the Internalization Merger, ACC also increased its borrowings in order to extinguish its pre-existing earnout liability and redeemable interest with a third-party investor. The upsized borrowing balance was assumed by ACR on the closing date of the Internalization Merger. ACC also settled its derivative liability with that same investor with ACR Common Stock received as consideration for the Internalization Merger. The final purchase price allocation will be determined when ACR completes the valuation analyses of the assets to be acquired and liabilities to be assumed in connection with the Internalization Merger and other necessary calculations.
The calculation of the estimated preliminary purchase price related to the Internalization Merger is as follows (in thousands, except share and per share data):

This preliminary purchase price allocation has been used to prepare pro forma adjustments in the pro forma condensed combined consolidated balance sheet and statement of operations. The final purchase price allocation will be determined once ACR has completed its valuation analyses and necessary calculations. The final allocation may include (1) changes in fair values of equity securities, investments in real estate debt, investments in equity method investees, and changes to the fair value of non-controlling interests, (2) changes in the fair value allocation to intangible assets and goodwill, (3) other changes to assets and liabilities and (4) changes to deferred tax assets and liabilities.
Note 4 - Pro Forma Adjustments – Unaudited Condensed Combined Consolidated Balance Sheet
(a) To eliminate the related-party promissory note between ACR and ACC, impacting “Loans receivable- due from Manager” and “Borrowings-related party.” The associated interest income and interest expense offset each other in “Other income/expense” line item on the Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Consolidated Statement of Operations.
(b)To retire the vested shares of ACR Common Stock granted to the Manager under the terms of the management agreement and the manager incentive plan for performance in its role as ACR’s Manager and are included in the consideration transferred noted above in Note 3. The total consideration, including the retirement of these shares, is recorded in ACR’s additional paid-in capital.
(c)To record the estimated goodwill based on the preliminary estimated fair values of ACC’s assets to be acquired and liabilities to be assumed and the related allocation of the purchase price, as described in Note 3 – Preliminary Purchase Price Allocation. Goodwill is calculated as the difference between the acquisition date fair value of the consideration expected to be transferred and the fair values assigned to the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed. Goodwill is not amortized.

Note 5 - Pro Forma Adjustments – Unaudited Condensed Combined Consolidated Statement of Operations
(a)To eliminate the revenue earned by ACC for management fees and reimbursable compensation, benefits and other miscellaneous expenses in accordance with the management agreement.
(b)To eliminate incentive compensation revenue recognized by ACC related to the vesting of ACR Common Stock granted under the manager incentive plan (See Note 5(e)). ACC recognizes share-based incentive compensation over the four-year vesting period on a straight-line basis. Any differences in the eliminations between the companies are due to differences in the recognition of revenue for ACC and the recognition of expense for ACR in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles or US GAAP.
(c)To eliminate reimbursable expenses ACR paid to ACC in accordance with the management agreement.
(d)To eliminate management fees ACR paid to ACC in accordance with the management agreement.
(e)To eliminate the amortization of equity compensation recognized by ACR for shares of ACR Common Stock issued to ACC under the manager incentive plan (See Note 5(b)). ACR recognizes the equity compensation expense for these grants over the four-year vesting period on a graded basis. Any differences in the eliminations between ACR and ACC are due to differences in the recognition of revenue for ACC and the recognition of expense for ACR in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles or US GAAP. The remaining equity compensation expense pertains to equity compensation expenses related to ACR’s directors and share-based compensation expense recognized at ACC that do not eliminate in consolidation.
(f)To recognize the estimated interest expense for the increase in the credit facility discussed in Note 4(g). ACC’s current interest rate of 8.625% was used to calculate the estimated interest expense.
(g)To recognize one-time transaction costs associated with the Internalization Merger which are estimated at approximately $39.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, comprised of additional post-combination compensation expense of $13.7 million associated with the fair value ACC’s stock options, payroll taxes of $23.8 million associated with the previously existing stock options to ACC executives and estimated transaction costs of $1.9 million that are not currently reflected in ACR’s historical consolidated financial statements. The pro forma adjustments related to ACC’s stock options and associated payroll taxes do not purport to be indicative of the expected change in compensation expense of the combined company in any future periods. These expenses are required to be treated as a post combination expense of ACR rather than as a part of the net assets acquired of ACC. It is assumed that these costs will not affect the combined statements of operations beyond six months after the closing date of the Internalization Merger.
(h)To eliminate unrealized gains recognized on vested shares of ACR Common Stock held by ACC that were granted under the terms of the management agreement and the management incentive plan.
(i)To eliminate the unrealized gains and losses AMF recognized for its investment in ACRES SPE 2025-1, LLC and the net income ACRES SPE 2025-1, LLC allocated to AMF for its investment (See Note 4(e)).
(j)To eliminate the income allocated to the third-party investor that holds a redeemable interest in ACC. As discussed in Note 3, this redeemable interest will be paid off prior to the close of the Internalization Merger.

(1)For the six months ended June 30, 2026, composed of 669,917 shares of ACR Common Stock vested prior to January 1, 2026 and the weighted average of 501,195 shares that vested during the six months ended June 30, 2026 that were previously granted to the Manager. For the year ended December 31, 2025, composed of 446,107 shares of ACR Common Stock vested prior to January 1, 2025 and the weighted average of the 223,810 shares that vested during the year-ended December 31, 2025 that were previously granted to the Manager.
(2)Excludes 23,666 and 27,087 weighted average shares of unvested restricted ACR Common Stock issued to ACR’s directors as they were anti-dilutive for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and year-ended December 31, 2025, respectively.
The historical earnings per share amounts are the amounts reported in ACR’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025. As the Internalization Merger is being reflected as if it had occurred on January 1, 2025, in the condensed combined consolidated statement of operations, the calculation of weighted average shares outstanding for basic and diluted earnings per share assumes that the shares of ACR Common Stock issuable in connection with the closing of the Internalization Merger have been outstanding and the vested shares previously issued to the Manager have been retired for the entire period presented.
Note 7 - ACR Refinancing Transaction
As noted in ACR’s Form 10-Q filed August 4, 2026, ACR’s existing $150.0 million 5.75% senior unsecured notes (“5.75% Notes”) mature on August 15, 2026. ACR refinanced the 5.75% Notes through the private issuance of $200.0 million 8.625% senior secured notes that mature in five years. This refinancing transaction closed on August 6, 2026. This refinance transaction is unrelated to the Internalization Merger and therefore, the impact is not reflected in the unaudited pro forma financial information.
