(1)Weighted average interest rate is calculated using the outstanding face amount and stated interest rate of notes issued by the securitization and not owned by the Company.
(2)Certain of the Company's CDOs contain interest rate step-up features whereby the interest rate increases if the outstanding notes are not redeemed by expected redemption dates, as defined in the respective governing documents. As of September 30, 2026, CDOs with an aggregate outstanding face amount of $2.3 billion contain an interest rate step-up feature whereby the interest rate increases by either 1.00% or 3.00% on defined dates ranging between 30 months and 48 months after issuance, if the notes are not redeemed before such dates.
(3)Stated maturity dates for Consolidated SLST include the stated final distribution dates of the respective securitizations. The actual maturity of the Company's CDOs are primarily determined by the rate of principal prepayments on the assets of the issuing entity. The CDOs are also subject to redemption prior to the stated maturity according to the terms of the respective governing documents. As a result, the actual maturity of the CDOs may occur earlier than the stated maturity.
(4)The Company has elected the fair value option for CDOs issued by Consolidated SLST, residential loan securitizations completed after January 1, 2024 and non-Agency RMBS re-securitizations (see Note 16). See Note 7 for unrealized gains or losses recognized on CDOs issued by Consolidated SLST. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, the Company recognized $44.5 million and $67.4 million in net unrealized gains, respectively, on residential loan securitizations and non-Agency RMBS re-securitizations at fair value, which are included in unrealized gains (losses), net on the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company recognized $8.8 million and $20.9 million in net unrealized losses, respectively, on residential loan securitizations and non-Agency RMBS re-securitizations at fair value, which are included in unrealized gains (losses), net on the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations.
