Forward-Looking Statements
The information contained in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q is not a complete description of our business or the risks associated with an investment in Arbor Realty Trust, Inc. We urge you to carefully review and consider the various disclosures made by us in this report.
This report contains certain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such forward-looking statements relate to, among other things, the operating performance of our investments and financing needs. We use words such as “anticipate,” “expect,” “believe,” “intend,” “should,” “will,” “may” and similar expressions to identify forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements include these words. Forward-looking statements are based on certain assumptions, discuss future expectations, describe future plans and strategies, contain projections of results of operations or of financial condition or state other forward-looking information. Our ability to predict results or the actual effect of future plans or strategies is inherently uncertain. These forward-looking statements involve risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results in future periods to differ materially from forecasted results. Factors that could have a material adverse effect on our operations and future prospects include, but are not limited to, changes in economic conditions generally and the real estate market specifically; adverse changes in our status with government-sponsored enterprises affecting our ability to originate loans through such programs; changes in interest rates; the quality and size of the investment pipeline and the rate at which we can invest our cash; impairments in the value of the collateral underlying our loans and investments; changes in federal and state laws and regulations, including changes in tax laws; the availability and cost of capital for future investments; and competition. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on any of these forward-looking statements, which reflect our views as of the date of this report. The factors noted above could cause our actual results to differ significantly from those contained in any forward-looking statement.
Additional information regarding these and other risks and uncertainties we face is contained in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 (the “2018 Annual Report”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on February 15, 2019 and in our other reports and filings with the SEC.
Although we believe the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements. We are under no duty to update any of the forward-looking statements after the date of this report to conform these statements to actual results.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
June 30, 2019
Note 1 — Description of Business
Arbor Realty Trust, Inc. (“we,” “us,” or “our”) is a Maryland corporation formed in 2003. We operate through two business segments: our Structured Loan Origination and Investment Business (“Structured Business”) and our Agency Loan Origination and Servicing Business (“Agency Business”). Through our Structured Business, we invest in a diversified portfolio of structured finance assets in the multifamily and commercial real estate markets, primarily consisting of bridge and mezzanine loans, including junior participating interests in first mortgages, preferred and direct equity. We may also directly acquire real property and invest in real estate-related notes and certain mortgage-related securities. Through our Agency Business, we originate, sell and service a range of multifamily finance products through the Federal National Mortgage Association (“Fannie Mae”) and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“Freddie Mac,” and together with Fannie Mae, the government-sponsored enterprises, or the “GSEs”), the Government National Mortgage Association (“Ginnie Mae”), Federal Housing Authority (“FHA”) and the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (together with Ginnie Mae and FHA, “HUD”) and conduit/commercial mortgage-backed securities (“CMBS”) programs. We retain the servicing rights and asset management responsibilities on substantially all loans we originate and sell under the GSE and HUD programs. We are an approved Fannie Mae Delegated Underwriting and Servicing (“DUS”) lender nationally, a Freddie Mac Multifamily Conventional Loan lender, seller/servicer, in New York, New Jersey and Connecticut, a Freddie Mac affordable, manufactured housing, senior housing and small balance loan (“SBL”) lender, seller/servicer, nationally and a HUD MAP and LEAN senior housing/healthcare lender nationally.
Substantially all of our operations are conducted through our operating partnership, Arbor Realty Limited Partnership (“ARLP”), for which we serve as the general partner, and ARLP’s subsidiaries. We are organized to qualify as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Certain of our assets that produce non-qualifying income, primarily within the Agency Business, are operated through taxable REIT subsidiaries (“TRS”), which is part of our TRS consolidated group (the “TRS Consolidated Group”) and is subject to U.S. federal, state and local income taxes. See Note 17 — Income Taxes for details.
Note 2 — Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
Our interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”), for interim financial statements and the instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the consolidated financial statements prepared under GAAP have been condensed or omitted. In our opinion, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of our financial position, results of operations and cash flows have been included and are of a normal and recurring nature. The operating results presented for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any other interim period or for the entire year. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and notes thereto included in our 2018 Annual Report.
Principles of Consolidation
These consolidated financial statements include our financial statements and the financial statements of our wholly owned subsidiaries, partnerships and other joint ventures in which we own a controlling interest, including variable interest entities (“VIEs”) of which we are the primary beneficiary. Entities in which we have a significant influence are accounted for under the equity method. See Note 15 — Variable Interest Entities for information about our VIEs. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that could materially affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Significant Accounting Policies
See Item 8 — Financial Statements and Supplementary Data in our 2018 Annual Report for a description of our significant accounting policies. Upon the adoption of Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) in the first quarter of 2019, we adopted the following significant accounting policy:
Leases. We determine if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term is recorded as operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease are recorded as lease liabilities. The operating lease ROU assets and lease liabilities are included in other assets and other liabilities, respectively, in our consolidated balance sheets. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. Our leases do not provide an implicit rate; therefore, we use our incremental borrowing rate in determining the present value of lease payments. Our lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. At the adoption date, we made an accounting policy election to exclude leases with an initial term of twelve months or less.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
|
Description |
|
Adoption Date |
|
Effect on Financial Statements |
|
In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). This ASU requires lessees to record most leases on their balance sheet through operating and finance lease liabilities and corresponding ROU assets, as well as adding additional footnote disclosures of key information about those arrangements. In July 2018, the FASB also issued ASU 2018-11, Leases (Topic 842) - Targeted Improvements, which provides transition relief on comparative period reporting through a cumulative-effect adjustment at the beginning of the period of adoption (“Effective Date Method”). |
|
First quarter of 2019 |
|
We adopted this guidance using the optional Effective Date Method and elected the group of optional practical expedients, therefore, comparative reporting periods have not been adjusted and are reported under the previous accounting guidance. Upon adoption, we recorded an operating lease ROU asset and corresponding lease liability of $20.1 million, which are included as other assets and other liabilities in our consolidated balance sheets. In addition, we added the required footnote disclosures in Note 14 - Commitments and Contingencies. |
|
In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-07, Compensation—Stock Compensation to expand the scope of ASC Topic 718, Compensation—Stock Compensation, to include share-based payment transactions for acquiring goods and services from nonemployees. |
|
First quarter of 2019 |
|
The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. |
|
In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-12, Derivatives and Hedging: Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities. This ASU better aligns risk management activities and financial reporting for hedging relationships through changes to both the designation and measurement guidance for qualifying hedging relationships and the presentation of hedge results. Among other amendments, the update allows entities to designate the variability in cash flows attributable to changes in a contractually specified component stated in the contract as the hedged risk in a cash flow hedge of a forecasted purchase or sale of a nonfinancial asset. |
|
First quarter of 2019 |
|
The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. We will apply this guidance to any future hedging activities. |

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
|
Description |
|
Effective Date |
|
Effect on Financial Statements |
|
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. This ASU requires the measurement of all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Entities will be required to use forward-looking information to better form their credit loss estimates. This ASU also requires enhanced disclosures to help financial statement users better understand significant estimates and judgments used in estimating credit losses. |
|
First quarter of 2020 with early adoption permitted beginning in the first quarter of 2019 |
|
We continue to evaluate the impact the adoption of this guidance will have on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures. As part of our evaluation process, we have established a task force that includes individuals from various functional areas to implement this new accounting standard. The standard applies to: (1) financial assets subject to credit losses and measured at amortized cost, and (2) certain off-balance sheet credit exposures. This currently includes our Structured Business loan and investment portfolio, held-to-maturity debt securities and loss-sharing obligations related to the Fannie Mae DUS program. Our preliminary evaluation indicates this standard is expected to impact our consolidated financial statements, in particular the level of credit losses. |

(1) “Weighted Average Pay Rate” is a weighted average, based on the unpaid principal balance (“UPB”) of each loan in our portfolio, of the interest rate that is required to be paid monthly as stated in the individual loan agreements. Certain loans and investments that require an additional rate of interest “Accrual Rate” to be paid at maturity are not included in the weighted average pay rate as shown in the table.
(2) The “First Dollar Loan-to-Value (“LTV”) Ratio” is calculated by comparing the total of our senior most dollar and all senior lien positions within the capital stack to the fair value of the underlying collateral to determine the point at which we will absorb a total loss of our position.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
June 30, 2019
(3) The “Last Dollar LTV Ratio” is calculated by comparing the total of the carrying value of our loan and all senior lien positions within the capital stack to the fair value of the underlying collateral to determine the point at which we will initially absorb a loss.
Concentration of Credit Risk
We are subject to concentration risk in that, at June 30, 2019, the UPB related to 34 loans with five different borrowers represented 19% of total assets. At December 31, 2018, the UPB related to 45 loans with five different borrowers represented 22% of total assets. During both the six months ended June 30, 2019 and the year ended December 31, 2018, no single loan or investment represented more than 10% of our total assets and no single investor group generated over 10% of our revenue. For details on our concentration of related party loans and investments, see Note 18 — Agreements and Transactions with Related Parties.
We assign a credit risk rating of pass, pass/watch, special mention, substandard or doubtful to each loan and investment, with a pass rating being the lowest risk and a doubtful rating being the highest risk. Each credit risk rating has benchmark guidelines that pertain to debt-service coverage ratios, LTV ratios, borrower strength, asset quality, and funded cash reserves. Other factors such as guarantees, market strength, and remaining loan term and borrower equity are also reviewed and factored into determining the credit risk rating assigned to each loan. This metric provides a helpful snapshot of portfolio quality and credit risk. All portfolio assets are subject to, at a minimum, a thorough quarterly financial evaluation in which historical operating performance and forward-looking projections are reviewed, however, we maintain a higher level of scrutiny and focus on loans that we consider “high risk” and that possess deteriorating credit quality.
Generally speaking, given our typical loan profile, risk ratings of pass, pass/watch and special mention suggest that we expect the loan to make both principal and interest payments according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement, and is not considered impaired. A risk rating of substandard indicates we anticipate the loan may require a modification of some kind. A risk rating of doubtful indicates we expect the loan to underperform over its term, and there could be loss of interest and/or principal. Further, while the above are the primary guidelines used in determining a certain risk rating, subjective items such as borrower strength, market strength or asset quality may result in a rating that is higher or lower than might be indicated by any risk rating matrix.
As a result of the loan review process, at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, we identified eight loans and investments that we consider higher-risk loans that had a carrying value, before loan loss reserves, of $128.2 million and $128.7 million, respectively, and a weighted average last dollar LTV ratio of 99% for both periods.
A summary of the loan portfolio’s weighted average internal risk ratings and LTV ratios by asset class is as follows ($ in thousands):

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, we determined that the fair value of the underlying collateral (land development project) securing six loans with a carrying value of $120.9 million was less than the net carrying value of the loans, which resulted in a provision for loan losses of $1.3 million and $1.7 million, respectively.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, we settled, for $31.6 million, a non-performing preferred equity investment in a hotel property with a net carrying value of $29.1 million, resulting in a reserve recovery of $2.5 million and a charge-off of $3.2 million. In addition, we received a payment and recorded a recovery of $0.9 million related to a written-off junior participation interest in an office building.
The ratios of net recoveries to the average loans and investments outstanding were de minimus for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018.
There were no loans for which the fair value of the collateral securing the loan was less than the carrying value of the loan for which we had not recorded a provision for loan loss as of June 30, 2019 and 2018.
We have six loans with a carrying value totaling $120.9 million at June 30, 2019 that are collateralized by a land development project that are scheduled to mature in September 2019. The loans do not carry a current pay rate of interest, however, five of the loans with a carrying value totaling $111.5 million entitle us to a weighted average

accrual rate of interest of 9.04%. In 2008, we suspended the recording of the accrual rate of interest on these loans, as they were impaired and we deemed the collection of this interest to be doubtful. At both June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, we had cumulative allowances for loan losses of $61.4 million related to these loans. The loans are subject to certain risks associated with a development project including, but not limited to, availability of construction financing, increases in projected construction costs, demand for the development’s outputs upon completion of the project, and litigation risk. Additionally, these loans were not classified as non-performing as the borrower is in compliance with all of the terms and conditions of the loans.

(2) Represents an average of the beginning and ending UPB of each asset class.
At both June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, two loans with an aggregate net carrying value of $0.8 million, net of related loan loss reserves of $1.7 million, were classified as non-performing. Income from non-performing loans is generally recognized on a cash basis when it is received. Full income recognition will resume when the loan becomes contractually current and performance has recommenced.

At both June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, there were no loans contractually past due 90 days or more that were still accruing interest.
There were no loan modifications, refinancing’s and/or extensions during both the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 that were considered troubled debt restructurings.
Given the transitional nature of some of our real estate loans, we may require funds to be placed into an interest reserve, based on contractual requirements, to cover debt service costs. At June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, we had total interest reserves of $61.4 million and $48.9 million, respectively, on 132 loans and 110 loans, respectively, with an aggregate UPB of $2.49 billion and $2.22 billion, respectively.

Note 5 — Capitalized Mortgage Servicing Rights
Our capitalized mortgage servicing rights (“MSRs”) reflect commercial real estate MSRs derived from loans sold in our Agency Business. The discount rates used to determine the present value of our MSRs throughout the periods presented for all MSRs were between 8% - 15% (representing a weighted average discount rate of 12%) based on our best estimate of market discount rates. The weighted average estimated life remaining of our MSRs was 7.7 years and 7.6 years at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.

At June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, our weighted average servicing fee was 43.6 basis points and 45.2 basis points, respectively. At June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, we held total escrow balances of $884.4 million and $824.1 million, respectively, which is not reflected in our consolidated balance sheets. Of the total escrow balances, we held $525.1 million and $521.2 million at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, related to loans we are servicing within our Agency Business. These escrows are maintained in separate accounts at several federally insured depository institutions, which may exceed FDIC insured limits. We earn interest income on the total escrow deposits, generally based on a market rate of interest negotiated with the financial institutions that hold the escrow deposits. Interest earned on total escrows, net of interest paid to the borrower, was $4.1 million and $8.1 million

Note 7 — Securities Held-to-Maturity
Agency B Piece Bonds. Freddie Mac may choose to hold, sell or securitize loans we sell to them under the Freddie Mac SBL program. As part of the securitizations under the SBL program, we have the option to purchase through a bidding process the bottom tranche bond, generally referred to as the “B Piece,” that represents the bottom 10%, or highest risk, of the securitization. As of June 30, 2019, we retained 49%, or $106.2 million initial face value, of seven B Piece bonds, which were purchased at a discount for $74.7 million, and sold the remaining 51% to a third-party at par. These securities are collateralized by a pool of multifamily mortgage loans, bear interest at an initial weighted average variable rate of 3.74% and have an estimated weighted average maturity of 5.7 years. The weighted average effective interest rate was 10.71% and 10.94% at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, including the accretion of discount. Approximately $16.6 million is estimated to mature within one year, $44.1 million is estimated to mature after one year through five years, $25.0 million is estimated to mature after five years through ten years and $15.1 million is estimated to mature after ten years.
Single Family Rental Bonds (“SFR bonds”). During the first quarter of 2019, we purchased $10.0 million initial face value of Class A2 securitized SFR bonds at par. The securities have a three-year maturity, bear interest at a fixed interest rate of 4.95% and are collateralized by a pool of single family rental properties. Approximately $8.6 million is estimated to mature within one year and $1.4 million is estimated to mature after one year through five years.

ARBOR REALTY TRUST, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
June 30, 2019
For the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, our hotel property had a weighted average occupancy rate of 62% and 58%, respectively, a weighted average daily rate of $111 and $116, respectively, and weighted average revenue per available room of $69 and $67, respectively. The operation of a hotel property is seasonal with the majority of revenues earned in the first two quarters of the calendar year. During the second quarter of 2019, based on discussions with market participants, we determined that the hotel property exhibited indicators of impairment and performed an impairment analysis. As a result of this analysis, we recorded an impairment loss of $1.0 million.
Our office building was fully occupied by a single tenant until April 2017 when the lease expired. The building is currently vacant. During the second quarter of 2018, based on discussions with market participants, we determined that the office building exhibited indicators of impairment and performed an impairment analysis. As a result of this analysis, we recorded an impairment loss of $2.0 million.
Our real estate owned assets had restricted cash balances totaling $0.6 million and $0.5 million at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, due to escrow requirements.

(1) Debt carrying value is net of $16.8 million and $16.0 million of deferred financing fees at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.
(2) At both June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the aggregate weighted average note rate for our CLOs, including certain fees and costs, was 4.37%.
(3) As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, there was no collateral at risk of default or deemed to be a “credit risk” as defined by the CLO indenture.
(4) Represents restricted cash held for principal repayments as well as for reinvestment in the CLOs. Does not include restricted cash related to interest payments, delayed fundings and expenses.
CLO XI — In June 2019, we completed a collateralized securitization vehicle (“CLO XI”), issuing eight tranches of CLO notes through two newly-formed wholly-owned subsidiaries totaling $602.1 million. Of the total CLO notes issued, $533.0 million were investment grade notes issued to third party investors and $69.1 million were below investment grade notes retained by us. As of the CLO closing date, the notes were secured by a portfolio of loan obligations with a face value of $520.4 million, consisting primarily of bridge loans that were contributed from our existing loan portfolio. The financing has a three-year replacement period that allows the principal proceeds and sale proceeds (if any) of the loan obligations to be reinvested in qualifying replacement loan obligations, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions set forth in the indenture. Thereafter, the outstanding debt balance will be reduced as loans are repaid. Initially, the proceeds of the issuance of the securities also included $129.6 million for the purpose of acquiring additional loan obligations for a period of up to 120 days from the CLO closing date. Subsequently, the issuer will own loan obligations with a face value of $650.0 million, representing leverage of 82%. We retained a residual interest in the portfolio with a notional amount of $117.0 million, including the $69.1 million below investment grade notes. The notes had an initial weighted average interest rate of 1.44% plus one-month LIBOR and interest payments on the notes are payable monthly.
CLO VI — In June 2019, we completed the unwind of CLO VI, redeeming $250.3 million of outstanding notes, which were repaid primarily from the refinancing of the remaining assets primarily within CLO XI, as well as with cash held by CLO VI, and expensed $1.2 million of deferred financing fees into interest expense on the consolidated statements of income.
Luxembourg Debt Fund
In 2017, we formed a $100.0 million Luxembourg commercial real estate debt fund (“Debt Fund”) and issued $70.0 million of floating rate notes to third-party investors which bear an initial interest rate of 4.15% over LIBOR. The notes mature in 2025 and we retained a $30.0 million equity interest in the Debt Fund. The Debt Fund is a VIE for which we are the primary beneficiary and is consolidated in our financial statements. The Debt Fund is secured by a
ARBOR REALTY TRUST, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

portfolio of loan obligations and cash with a face value of $100.0 million, which includes first mortgage bridge loans, senior and subordinate participation interests in first mortgage bridge loans and participation interests in mezzanine loans. The Debt Fund allows, for a period of three years, principal proceeds from portfolio assets to be reinvested in qualifying replacement assets, subject to certain conditions.

Senior Unsecured Notes
In March 2019, we issued $90.0 million aggregate principal amount of 5.75% senior unsecured notes due in April 2024 (the “5.75% Notes”) in a private placement. We received proceeds of $88.2 million from the issuances, after deducting the underwriting discount and other offering expenses. We used the net proceeds to make investments and for general corporate purposes. The 5.75% Notes are unsecured and can be redeemed by us at any time prior to April 1, 2024, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the aggregate principal amount, plus a “make-whole” premium and accrued and unpaid interest. We have the right to redeem the 5.75% Notes on or after April 1, 2024, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the aggregate principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest. The interest is paid semiannually in April and October starting in October 2019. At June 30, 2019, the debt carrying value of the 5.75% Notes was $88.2 million, which was net of $1.8 million of deferred financing fees. At June 30, 2019, the weighted average note rate was 6.11%, including certain fees and costs.
In March 2018, we issued $100.0 million aggregate principal amount of 5.625% senior unsecured notes due in May 2023 (the “Initial Notes”) in a private placement, and, in May 2018, we issued an additional $25.0 million (the “Reopened Notes” and, together with the Initial Notes, the “5.625% Notes,”) which brought the aggregate outstanding principal amount to $125.0 million. The Reopened Notes are fully fungible with, and rank equally in right of payment with the Initial Notes. We received total proceeds of $122.3 million from the issuances, after deducting the underwriting discount and other offering expenses. We used the net proceeds from the Initial Notes to fully redeem our 7.375% senior unsecured notes due in 2021 (the “7.375% Notes”) totaling $97.9 million and the net proceeds from the Reopened Notes to make investments and for general corporate purposes. The 5.625% Notes are unsecured and can be redeemed by us at any time prior to April 1, 2023, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the aggregate principal amount, plus a “make-whole” premium and accrued and unpaid interest. We have the right to redeem the 5.625% Notes on or after April 1, 2023, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the aggregate principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest. The interest is paid semiannually in May and November. At June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the debt carrying value of the 5.625% Notes was $122.8 million and $122.5 million, respectively, which was net of $2.2 million and $2.5 million, respectively, of deferred financing fees. At both June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the weighted average note rate was 6.08%, including certain fees and costs.
Convertible Senior Unsecured Notes
In July 2018, we issued $264.5 million in aggregate principal amount of 5.25% convertible senior notes (the “5.25% Convertible Notes”) through two separate private placement offerings, which included the exercised purchaser’s total over-allotment option of $34.5 million. The 5.25% Convertible Notes pay interest semiannually in arrears and

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

are scheduled to mature in July 2021, unless earlier converted or repurchased by the holders pursuant to their terms. The initial conversion rates of the two offerings ($115.0 million issued on July 3, 2018 and $149.5 million issued on July 20, 2018) were 86.9943 shares and 77.8331 shares of common stock per $1,000 of principal, respectively, representing a conversion price of $11.50 per share and $12.85 per share of common stock, respectively. At June 30, 2019, the conversion rates of the two offerings ($115.0 million and $149.5 million) were 88.7027 shares and 79.3616 shares of common stock per $1,000 of principal, respectively, representing a conversion price of $11.27 per share and $12.60 per share of common stock, respectively.
We received proceeds totaling $256.1 million from the offerings of our 5.25% Convertible Notes, net of the underwriter’s discount and fees, which is being amortized through interest expense over the life of such notes. We used the net proceeds from the issuance primarily for the initial exchange of $127.6 million of our 5.375% convertible senior unsecured notes (the “5.375% Convertible Notes”) and $99.8 million of our 6.50% convertible senior unsecured notes (the “6.50% Convertible Notes”) for a combination of $219.8 million in cash (which includes accrued interest) and 6,820,196 shares of our common stock. The remaining net proceeds were used for general corporate purposes.
At June 30, 2019, there were $1.2 million and $0.1 million aggregate principal amounts remaining of our 5.375% Convertible Notes and 6.50% Convertible Notes, respectively. The initial conversion rates of the 5.375% Convertible Notes and 6.50% Convertible Notes were 107.7122 shares and 119.3033 shares, respectively, of common stock per $1,000 of principal, which represented a conversion price of $9.28 per share and $8.38 per share of common stock, respectively. At June 30, 2019, the 5.375% Convertible Notes and 6.50% Convertible Notes had conversion rates of 112.9222 shares and 128.3616 shares, respectively, of common stock per $1,000 of principal, which represented a conversion price of $8.86 per share and $7.79 per share of common stock, respectively. The 5.375% Convertible Notes and 6.50% Convertible Notes pay interest semiannually in arrears and have scheduled maturity dates in November 2020 and October 2019, respectively, unless earlier converted or repurchased by the holders pursuant to their terms.
Since the closing stock price of our common stock on June 30, 2019 exceeded the conversion prices of certain of our convertible notes, the if-converted value of the convertible notes exceeded their principal amounts by $9.1 million at June 30, 2019.
Our convertible senior unsecured notes are not redeemable by us prior to their maturities and are convertible by the holder into, at our election, cash, shares of our common stock or a combination of both, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions and during specified periods. The conversion rates are subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of certain specified events and the holders may require us to repurchase all, or any portion, of their notes for cash equal to 100% of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if we undergo a fundamental change specified in the agreements. We intend to settle the principal balance of our convertible debt in cash and have not assumed share settlement of the principal balance for purposes of computing earnings per share (“EPS”). At the time of issuance, there was no precedent or policy that would indicate that we would settle the principal in shares or the conversion spread in cash.
Accounting guidance requires that convertible debt instruments with cash settlement features, including partial cash settlement, account for the liability component and equity component (conversion feature) of the instrument separately. The initial value of the liability component reflects the present value of the discounted cash flows using the nonconvertible debt borrowing rate at the time of the issuance. The debt discount represents the difference between the proceeds received from the issuance and the initial carrying value of the liability component, which is accreted back to the notes principal amount through interest expense over the term of the notes, which was 2.00 years and 2.49 years at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, on a weighted average basis.

During the three months ended June 30, 2019, we incurred interest expense on the notes totaling $4.9 million, of which $3.4 million, $0.7 million and $0.8 million related to the cash coupon, amortization of the deferred financing fees and of the debt discount, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, we incurred total interest expense on the notes of $10.2 million, of which $6.9 million, $1.5 million and $1.7 million related to the cash coupon, amortization of the deferred financing fees and of the debt discount, respectively. During the three months ended June 30, 2018, we incurred total interest expense on the notes of $6.1 million, of which $3.2 million, $2.3 million and $0.6 million related to the cash coupon, amortization of the deferred financing fees and of the debt discount, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2018, we incurred total interest expense on the notes of $11.0 million, of which $6.8 million, $3.0 million and $1.2 million related to the cash coupon, amortization of the deferred financing fees and of the debt discount, respectively. Including the amortization of the deferred financing fees and debt discount, our weighted average total cost of the notes was 7.45% per annum at both June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018.
Junior Subordinated Notes
The carrying value of borrowings under our junior subordinated notes were $140.6 million and $140.3 million at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, which is net of a deferred amount of $11.7 million and $12.0 million, respectively, (which is amortized into interest expense over the life of the notes) and deferred financing fees of $2.0 million and $2.1 million, respectively. These notes have maturities ranging from March 2034 through April 2037 and pay interest quarterly at a fixed or floating rate of interest based on LIBOR. The current weighted average note rate was 5.17% and 5.66% at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. Including certain fees and costs, the weighted average note rate was 5.25% and 5.75% at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.
Debt Covenants
Credit Facilities and Repurchase Agreements. The credit facilities and repurchase agreements contain various financial covenants, including, but not limited to, minimum liquidity requirements, minimum net worth requirements, as well as certain other debt service coverage ratios, debt to equity ratios and minimum servicing portfolio tests. We were in compliance with all financial covenants and restrictions at June 30, 2019.
CLOs. Our CLO vehicles contain interest coverage and asset overcollateralization covenants that must be met as of the waterfall distribution date in order for us to receive such payments. If we fail these covenants in any of our CLOs, all cash flows from the applicable CLO would be diverted to repay principal and interest on the outstanding CLO bonds and we would not receive any residual payments until that CLO regained compliance with such tests. Our CLOs were in compliance with all such covenants as of June 30, 2019, as well as on the most recent determination dates in July 2019. In the event of a breach of the CLO covenants that could not be cured in the near-term, we would be required to fund our non-CLO expenses, including employee costs, distributions required to maintain our REIT status, debt costs, and other expenses with (i) cash on hand, (ii) income from any CLO not in breach of a covenant test, (iii) income from real property and loan assets, (iv) sale of assets, or (v) accessing the equity or debt capital markets, if available. We have the right to cure covenant breaches which would resume normal

(1) The overcollateralization ratio divides the total principal balance of all collateral in the CLO by the total principal balance of the bonds associated with the applicable ratio. To the extent an asset is considered a defaulted security, the asset’s principal balance for purposes of the overcollateralization test is the lesser of the asset’s market value or the principal balance of the defaulted asset multiplied by the asset’s recovery rate which is determined by the rating agencies. Rating downgrades of CLO collateral will generally not have a direct impact on the principal balance of a CLO asset for purposes of calculating the CLO overcollateralization test unless the rating downgrade is below a significantly low threshold (e.g. CCC-) as defined in each CLO vehicle.
(2) The interest coverage ratio divides interest income by interest expense for the classes senior to those retained by us.
Our CLO overcollateralization ratios as of the determination dates subsequent to each quarter are as follows:

(1) The table above represents the quarterly trend of our overcollateralization ratio, however, the CLO determination dates are monthly and we were in compliance with this test for all periods presented.
The ratio will fluctuate based on the performance of the underlying assets, transfers of assets into the CLOs prior to the expiration of their respective replenishment dates, purchase or disposal of other investments, and loan payoffs. No payment due under the junior subordinated indentures may be paid if there is a default under any senior debt and the senior lender has sent notice to the trustee. The junior subordinated indentures are also cross-defaulted with each other.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
June 30, 2019
When we settle a loss under the DUS loss-sharing model, the net loss is charged-off against the previously recorded loss-sharing obligation. The settled loss is often net of any previously advanced principal and interest payments in accordance with the DUS program, which are reflected as reductions to the proceeds needed to settle losses. At June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, we had outstanding advances of $0.5 million and $0.1 million, respectively, which were netted against the allowance for loss-sharing obligations.
At June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, our allowance for loss-sharing obligations represented 0.24% and 0.25%, respectively, of the Fannie Mae servicing portfolio.
At June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the maximum quantifiable liability associated with our guarantees under the Fannie Mae DUS agreement was $2.59 billion and $2.46 billion, respectively. The maximum quantifiable liability is not representative of the actual loss we would incur. We would be liable for this amount only if all of the loans we service for Fannie Mae, for which we retain some risk of loss, were to default and all of the collateral underlying these loans was determined to be without value at the time of settlement.
Note 12 — Derivative Financial Instruments
We enter into derivative financial instruments to manage exposures that arise from business activities resulting in the receipt or payment of future known and uncertain cash amounts, the value of which are determined by interest rates. We do not use these derivatives for speculative purposes, but are instead using them to manage our exposure to interest rate risk.
Agency Rate Lock and Forward Sale Commitments. We enter into contractual commitments to originate and sell mortgage loans at fixed prices with fixed expiration dates. The commitments become effective when the borrower “rate locks” a specified interest rate within time frames established by us. All potential borrowers are evaluated for creditworthiness prior to the extension of the commitment. Market risk arises if interest rates move adversely between the time of the rate lock by the borrower and the sale date of the loan to an investor. To mitigate the effect of the interest rate risk inherent in providing rate lock commitments to borrowers, we enter into a forward sale commitment with the investor simultaneous with the rate lock commitment with the borrower. The forward sale contract locks in an interest rate and price for the sale of the loan. The terms of the contract with the investor and the rate lock with the borrower are matched in substantially all respects, with the objective of eliminating interest rate risk to the extent practical. Sale commitments with the investors have an expiration date that is longer than our related commitments to the borrower to allow, among other things, for closing of the loan and processing of paperwork to deliver the loan into the sale commitment.
These commitments meet the definition of a derivative and are recorded at fair value, including the effects of interest rate movements which are reflected as a component of other income, net in the consolidated statements of income. The estimated fair value of rate lock commitments also includes the fair value of the expected net cash flows associated with the servicing of the loan which is recorded as income from MSRs in the consolidated statements of income. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, we recorded a net gain of $1.1 million and a net loss of $1.4 million, respectively, from changes in the fair value of these derivatives in other income, net and $18.7 million and $32.9 million, respectively, of income from MSRs. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, we recorded a net loss of $0.6 million and a net gain of $2.1 million, respectively, from changes in the fair value of these derivatives in other income, net and $17.9 million and $37.6 million, respectively, of income from MSRs. See Note 13 — Fair Value for details.
Structured Interest Rate Swap Futures. During the second quarter of 2019, we entered into over-the-counter interest rate swap futures (“Swap Futures”) which do not meet the criteria for hedge accounting. Our Swap Futures typically have a three-month maturity and are tied to the five-year and ten-year swap rates which hedge our exposure to rising interest rates inherent in our SFR loans originated from the time the loans are originated until the time they can be financed with match term fixed rate debt. Our Swap Futures are cleared by a central clearing house and variation margin payments, made in cash, are treated as a legal settlement of the derivative itself as opposed to a pledge of collateral. During the second quarter of 2019, we recorded a realized loss of $0.3 million and an unrealized loss of $0.1 million in other income, net from our Swap Futures.

Assets and liabilities disclosed at fair value are categorized based upon the level of judgment associated with the inputs used to measure their fair value. Hierarchical levels directly related to the amount of subjectivity associated with the inputs to fair valuation of these assets and liabilities are as follows:
Level 1—Inputs are unadjusted and quoted prices exist in active markets for identical assets or liabilities, such as government, agency and equity securities.
Level 2—Inputs (other than quoted prices included in Level 1) are observable for the asset or liability through correlation with market data. Level 2 inputs may include quoted market prices for a similar asset or liability, interest rates and credit risk. Examples include non-government securities, certain mortgage and asset-backed securities, certain corporate debt and certain derivative instruments.
ARBOR REALTY TRUST, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
June 30, 2019
Level 3—Inputs reflect our best estimate of what market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability and are based on significant unobservable inputs that require a considerable amount of judgment and assumptions. Examples include certain mortgage and asset-backed securities, certain corporate debt and certain derivative instruments.
Determining which category an asset or liability falls within the hierarchy requires significant judgment and we evaluate our hierarchy disclosures each quarter.
The following is a description of the valuation techniques used to measure fair value and the general classification of these instruments pursuant to the fair value hierarchy.
Loans and investments, net. Fair values of loans and investments that are not impaired are estimated using Level 3 inputs based on direct capitalization rate and discounted cash flow methodologies using discount rates, which, in our opinion, best reflect current market interest rates that would be offered for loans with similar characteristics and credit quality. Fair values of impaired loans and investments are estimated using Level 3 inputs that require significant judgments, which include assumptions regarding discount rates, capitalization rates, creditworthiness of major tenants, occupancy rates, availability of financing, exit plans and other factors.
Loans held-for-sale, net. Consists of originated loans that are generally transferred or sold within 60 days of loan funding, and are valued using pricing models that incorporate observable inputs from current market assumptions or a hypothetical securitization model utilizing observable market data from recent securitization spreads and observable pricing of loans with similar characteristics (Level 2). Fair value includes the fair value allocated to the associated future MSRs and is calculated pursuant to the valuation techniques described below for capitalized mortgage servicing rights, net (Level 3).
Capitalized mortgage servicing rights, net. Fair values are estimated using Level 3 inputs based on discounted future net cash flow methodology. The fair value of MSRs carried at amortized cost are estimated using a process that involves the use of independent third-party valuation experts, supported by commercially available discounted cash flow models and analysis of current market data. The key inputs used in estimating fair value include the contractually specified servicing fees, prepayment speed of the underlying loans, discount rate, annual per loan cost to service loans, delinquency rates, late charges and other economic factors.
Securities held-to-maturity, net. Fair values are approximated using Level 3 inputs based on current market quotes received from financial sources that trade such securities and are based on prevailing market data and, in some cases, are derived from third-party proprietary models based on well recognized financial principles and reasonable estimates about relevant future market conditions.
Derivative financial instruments. The fair values of rate lock and forward sale commitments are estimated using valuation techniques, which include internally-developed models developed based on changes in the U.S. Treasury rate and other observable market data (Level 2). The fair value of rate lock commitments includes the fair value of the expected net cash flows associated with the servicing of the loans, see capitalized mortgage servicing rights, net above for details on the applicable valuation technique (Level 3). We also consider the impact of counterparty non-performance risk when measuring the fair value of these derivatives. Given the credit quality of our counterparties, the short duration of interest rate lock commitments and forward sale contracts, and our historical experience, the risk of nonperformance by our counterparties is not significant.
Credit facilities and repurchase agreements. Fair values for credit facilities and repurchase agreements of the Structured Business are estimated at Level 3 using discounted cash flow methodology, using discount rates, which, in our opinion, best reflect current market interest rates for financing with similar characteristics and credit quality. The majority of our credit facilities and repurchase agreement for the Agency Business bear interest at rates that are similar to those available in the market currently and the fair values are estimated using Level 2 inputs. For these facilities, the fair values approximate their carrying values.

Collateralized loan obligations, Debt Fund and junior subordinated notes. Fair values are estimated at Level 3 based on broker quotations, representing the discounted expected future cash flows at a yield that reflects current market interest rates and credit spreads.
Senior unsecured notes. Fair values are estimated at Level 1 when current market quotes received from active markets are available. If quotes from active markets are unavailable, then the fair values are estimated at Level 2 utilizing current market quotes received from inactive markets.
Convertible senior unsecured notes, net. Fair values are estimated at Level 2 based on current market quotes received from inactive markets.

(1) We had an allowance for loan losses of $71.1 million relating to five loans with an aggregate carrying value, before loan loss reserves, of $131.3 million at June 30, 2019.
(2) We recorded a $1.0 million impairment loss during the three months ended June 30, 2019 on the hotel property we own. See Note 9 — Real Estate Owned for details.
Loan impairment assessments. Loans held for investment are intended to be held to maturity and, accordingly, are carried at cost, net of unamortized loan origination costs and fees, loan purchase discounts, and net of the allowance for loan losses, when such loan or investment is deemed to be impaired. We consider a loan impaired when, based upon current information, it is probable that we will be unable to collect all amounts due for both principal and interest according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. We evaluate our loans to determine if the value of the underlying collateral securing the impaired loan is less than the net carrying value of the loan, which may result in an allowance and corresponding charge to the provision for loan losses. These valuations require significant judgments, which include assumptions regarding capitalization and discount rates, revenue growth rates,

creditworthiness of major tenants, occupancy rates, availability of financing, exit plan and other factors. The table above and below includes all impaired loans, regardless of the period in which the impairment was recognized.
Long-lived assets. We review our real estate owned assets when events or circumstances change, indicating that the carrying amount of an asset may not be partially or fully recoverable. In the evaluation of a real estate owned asset for impairment, many factors are considered, including broker quotes, estimated current and expected operating cash flows from the asset during the projected holding period, costs necessary to extend the life or improve the asset, expected capitalization rates, projected stabilized net operating income, selling costs, and the ability to hold and dispose of the asset in the ordinary course of business. We first compare the undiscounted cash flows to be generated by the asset to the carrying value of such asset. If the undiscounted cash flows are less than the carrying value, we recognize an impairment loss by comparing the carrying value of the asset to its fair value.

Note 14 — Commitments and Contingencies
Debt Obligations. Our debt obligations have maturities of $894.0 million for the remainder of 2019, $1.17 billion in 2020, $746.6 million in 2021, $683.8 million in 2022, $268.4 million in 2023, $139.2 million in 2024 and $324.8 million thereafter.
Agency Business Commitments. Our Agency Business is subject to supervision by certain regulatory agencies. Among other things, these agencies require us to meet certain minimum net worth, operational liquidity and restricted liquidity collateral requirements, and compliance with reporting requirements. Our adjusted net worth and liquidity required by the agencies for all periods presented exceeded these requirements.
As of June 30, 2019, we were required to maintain at least $13.9 million of liquid assets in one of our subsidiaries to meet our operational liquidity requirements for Fannie Mae and we had operational liquidity in excess of this requirement.
We are generally required to share the risk of any losses associated with loans sold under the Fannie Mae DUS program and are required to secure this obligation by assigning restricted cash balances and/or a letter of credit to Fannie Mae. The amount of collateral required by Fannie Mae is a formulaic calculation at the loan level by a Fannie Mae assigned tier which considers the loan balance, risk level of the loan, age of the loan and level of risk-sharing. Fannie Mae requires restricted liquidity for Tier 2 loans of 75 basis points, 15 basis points for Tier 3 loans
ARBOR REALTY TRUST, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
June 30, 2019
and 5 basis points for Tier 4 loans, which is funded over a 48-month period that begins upon delivery of the loan to Fannie Mae. A significant portion of our Fannie Mae DUS serviced loans for which we have risk sharing are Tier 2 loans. As of June 30, 2019, we met the restricted liquidity requirement with a $44.0 million letter of credit and $1.3 million of cash collateral.
As of June 30, 2019, reserve requirements for the Fannie Mae DUS loan portfolio will require us to fund $33.2 million in additional restricted liquidity over the next 48 months, assuming no further principal paydowns, prepayments, or defaults within our at-risk portfolio. Fannie Mae periodically reassesses these collateral requirements and may make changes to these requirements in the future. We generate sufficient cash flow from our operations to meet these capital standards and do not expect any changes to have a material impact on our future operations; however, future changes to collateral requirements may adversely impact our available cash.
We are subject to various capital requirements in connection with seller/servicer agreements that we have entered into with secondary market investors. Failure to maintain minimum capital requirements could result in our inability to originate and service loans for the respective investor and, therefore, could have a direct material effect on our consolidated financial statements. As of June 30, 2019, we met all of Fannie Mae’s quarterly capital requirements and our Fannie Mae adjusted net worth was in excess of the required net worth. We are not subject to capital requirements on a quarterly basis for Ginnie Mae or FHA, as such requirements for these investors are only required on an annual basis.
As an approved designated seller/servicer under Freddie Mac’s SBL program, we are required to post collateral to ensure that we are able to meet certain purchase and loss obligations required by this program. Under the SBL program, we are required to post collateral equal to $5.0 million, which is satisfied with a $5.0 million letter of credit.
We enter into contractual commitments with borrowers providing rate lock commitments while simultaneously entering into forward sale commitments with investors. These commitments are outstanding for short periods of time (generally less than 60 days) and are described in Note 12 — Derivative Financial Instruments.
Operating Leases. We have operating leases for office space and certain office equipment. Some of our leases include payment escalations throughout their lease terms. As of June 30, 2019, our leases had remaining lease terms of 0.2 — 7.7 years with a weighted average remaining lease term of 5.4 years and a weighted average discount rate of 5.0%. We recorded lease expense of $1.5 million and $2.9 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019.
The maturities of our operating lease liabilities at June 30, 2019 are as follows (in thousands):

Unfunded Commitments. In accordance with certain structured loans and investments, we have outstanding unfunded commitments of $145.0 million as of June 30, 2019 that we are obligated to fund as borrowers meet certain requirements. Specific requirements include, but are not limited to, property renovations, building construction and conversions based on criteria met by the borrower in accordance with the loan agreements.

Litigation. We are currently neither subject to any material litigation nor, to the best of our knowledge, threatened by any material litigation other than the following:
In June 2011, three related lawsuits were filed by the Extended Stay Litigation Trust (the “Trust”), a post-bankruptcy litigation trust alleged to have standing to pursue claims that previously had been held by Extended Stay, Inc. and the Homestead Village L.L.C. family of companies (together “ESI”) (formerly Chapter 11 debtors, together the “Debtors”) that have emerged from bankruptcy. Two of the lawsuits were filed in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York, and the third in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, New York County.
There were 73 defendants in the three lawsuits, including 55 corporate and partnership entities and 18 individuals. A subsidiary of ours and certain other entities that are affiliates of ours are included as defendants. The New York State Court action has been removed to the Bankruptcy Court. Our affiliates filed a motion to dismiss the three lawsuits.
The lawsuits all allege, as a factual basis and background certain facts surrounding the June 2007 leveraged buyout of ESI from affiliates of Blackstone Capital. Our subsidiary, Arbor ESH II, LLC, had a $115.0 million investment in the Series A1 Preferred Units of a holding company of Extended Stay, Inc. The New York State Court action and one of the two federal court actions name as defendants, Arbor ESH II, LLC, Arbor Commercial Mortgage, LLC (“ACM”) and ABT-ESI LLC, an entity in which we have a membership interest, among the broad group of defendants. These two actions were commenced by substantially identical complaints. The defendants are alleged in these complaints, among other things, to have breached fiduciary and contractual duties by causing or allowing the Debtors to pay illegal dividends or other improper distributions of value at a time when the Debtors were insolvent. These two complaints also allege that the defendants aided and abetted, induced, or participated in breaches of fiduciary duty, waste, and unjust enrichment (“Fiduciary Duty Claims”) and name a director of ours, and a former general counsel of ACM, each of whom had served on the Board of Directors of ESI for a period of time. We are defending these two defendants and paying the costs of such defense. On the basis of the foregoing allegations, the Trust has asserted claims under a number of common law theories, seeking the return of assets transferred by the Debtors prior to the Debtors’ bankruptcy filing.
In the third action, filed in Bankruptcy Court, the same plaintiff, the Trust, has named ACM and ABT-ESI LLC, together with a number of other defendants and asserts claims, including constructive and fraudulent conveyance claims under state and federal statutes, as well as a claim under the Federal Debt Collection Procedure Act.
In June 2013, the Trust filed a motion to amend the lawsuits, to, among other things, (i) consolidate the lawsuits into one lawsuit, (ii) remove 47 defendants, none of whom are related to us, from the lawsuits so that there are 26 remaining defendants, including 16 corporate and partnership entities and 10 individuals, and (iii) reduce the counts within the lawsuits from over 100 down to 17. The remaining counts in the amended complaint against our affiliates are principally state law claims for breach of fiduciary duties, waste, unlawful dividends and unjust enrichment, and claims under the Bankruptcy Code for avoidance and recovery actions, among others. The bankruptcy court granted the motion and the amended complaint has been filed. The amended complaint seeks approximately $139.0 million in the aggregate, plus interest from the date of the alleged unlawful transfers, from director designees, portions of which are also sought from our affiliates as well as from unaffiliated defendants. We have moved to dismiss the referenced actions and intend to vigorously defend against the claims asserted therein. During a status conference held in March 2014, the Court heard oral argument on the motion to dismiss and adjourned the case pending a ruling. Subsequent to that hearing, a new judge was assigned to the case and, in November 2016, the new judge entered an order directing the parties to file supplemental briefs addressing new cases decided since the last round of briefing. Oral arguments regarding the motion to dismiss were heard at a hearing held in January 2017. The Court reserved decision at that hearing.
We have not made a loss accrual for this litigation because we believe that it is not probable that a loss has been incurred and an amount cannot be reasonably estimated.
Due to Borrowers. Due to borrowers represents borrowers’ funds held by us to fund certain expenditures or to be released at our discretion upon the occurrence of certain pre-specified events, and to serve as additional collateral for
ARBOR REALTY TRUST, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
June 30, 2019
borrowers’ loans. While retained, these balances earn interest in accordance with the specific loan terms they are associated with.
Note 15 — Variable Interest Entities
Our involvement with VIEs primarily affects our financial performance and cash flows through amounts recorded in interest income, interest expense, provision for loan losses and through activity associated with our derivative instruments.
Consolidated VIEs. We have determined that our operating partnership, ARLP, and our CLO and Debt Fund entities, which we consolidate, are VIEs. ARLP is already consolidated in our financial statements, therefore, the identification of this entity as a VIE had no impact on our consolidated financial statements.
Our CLO and Debt Fund consolidated entities invest in real estate and real estate-related securities and are financed by the issuance of debt securities. We, or one of our affiliates, are named collateral manager, servicer, and special servicer for all collateral assets held in CLOs, which we believe gives us the power to direct the most significant economic activities of those entities. We also have exposure to losses to the extent of our equity interests and also have rights to waterfall payments in excess of required payments to bond investors. As a result of consolidation, equity interests have been eliminated, and the consolidated balance sheets reflect both the assets held and debt issued by the CLOs and Debt Fund to third parties. Our operating results and cash flows include the gross amounts related to CLO and Debt Fund assets and liabilities as opposed to our net economic interests in those entities.
The assets and liabilities related to these consolidated CLOs and Debt Fund are as follows (in thousands):

Assets held by the CLOs and Debt Fund are restricted and can only be used to settle obligations of the CLOs and Debt Fund, respectively. The liabilities of the CLOs and Debt Fund are non-recourse to us and can only be satisfied from each respective asset pool. See Note 10 — Debt Obligations for details. We are not obligated to provide, have not provided, and do not intend to provide financial support to any of the consolidated CLOs or Debt Fund.
Unconsolidated VIEs . We determined that we are not the primary beneficiary of 28 VIEs in which we have a variable interest as of June 30, 2019 because we do not have the ability to direct the activities of the VIEs that most significantly impact each entity’s economic performance.

(1) Represents the carrying amount of loans and investments before reserves. At June 30, 2019, $129.6 million of loans to VIEs had corresponding loan loss reserves of $69.4 million. See Note 3 — Loans and Investments for details. In addition, the maximum loss exposure as of June 30, 2019 would not exceed the carrying amount of our investment.
These unconsolidated VIEs have exposure to real estate debt of approximately $4.42 billion at June 30, 2019 .
Note 16 — Equity
Preferred Stock. The Series A, B and C preferred stock outstanding are redeemable by us.
Common Stock. In May 2019, we completed a public offering in which we sold 9,200,000 shares of our common stock (which includes the underwriter’s exercised over-allotment option of 1,200,000 shares) for $12.58 per share, and received net proceeds of $115.6 million after deducting the underwriter’s discount and other offering expenses. The proceeds were used to make investments related to our business and for general corporate purposes. We also used a portion of the net proceeds to purchase an aggregate of 920,000 shares of our common stock from our chief executive officer and ACM at the same price the underwriters paid to purchase the shares.
In December 2018, our Board of Directors declared a special dividend of $0.15 per common share, which was paid in January 2019 with a combination of $2.5 million of cash and 901,432 common shares.
During the six months ended June 30, 2019, we issued 210,466 shares in connection with the settlements of our 5.375% Convertible Notes.
During the six months ended June 30, 2018, we sold 952,700 shares for net proceeds of $8.1 million through an “At-The-Market” equity offering sales agreement we have with JMP Securities LLC.
As of June 30, 2019, we had $283.6 million available under our $500.0 million shelf registration statement that was declared effective by the SEC in June 2018.
N oncontrolling Interest. Noncontrolling interest relates to the operating partnership units (“OP Units”) issued to satisfy a portion of the purchase price in connection with the acquisition of the agency platform of ACM in the third quarter of 2016 (the “Acquisition”). Each of these OP Units are paired with one share of our special voting preferred shares having a par value of $0.01 per share and is entitled to one vote each on any matter submitted for stockholder approval. The OP Units are entitled to receive distributions if and when our Board of Directors authorizes and declares common stock distributions. The OP Units are also redeemable for cash, or at our option, for shares of our common stock on a one-for-one basis.
In the six months ended June 30, 2019, we redeemed 391,156 OP Units with a combination of cash totaling $1.7 million and 258,677 common shares. In addition, our Board of Directors declared a special dividend of $0.15 per common share in December 2018, which was paid to the OP Unit holders in a combination of $0.6 million of cash and 221,666 OP Units in January 2019.
At June 30, 2019, there were 20,484,094 OP Units outstanding, which represented 17.9% of the voting power of our outstanding stock.

Common Stock — On July 31, 2019, the Board of Directors declared a cash dividend of $0.29 per share of common stock. The dividend is payable on September 3, 2019 to common stockholders of record as of the close of business on August 15, 2019.
Preferred Stock — On July 31, 2019, the Board of Directors declared a cash dividend of $0.515625 per share of 8.25% Series A preferred stock; a cash dividend of $0.484375 per share of 7.75% Series B preferred stock; and a cash dividend of $0.53125 per share of 8.50% Series C preferred stock. These amounts reflect dividends from June 1, 2019 through August 31, 2019 and are payable on September 3, 2019 to preferred stockholders of record on August 15, 2019.
Deferred Compensation. In March 2019, we issued 326,192 shares of restricted common stock under the 2017 Amended Omnibus Stock Incentive Plan (the “2017 Plan”) to employees with a total grant date fair value of $4.1 million and recorded $1.4 million to employee compensation and benefits in our consolidated statements of income. One third of the shares vested as of the grant date, one third will vest in March 2020, and the remaining third will vest in March 2021. In March 2019, we also issued 55,244 shares of fully vested common stock to the independent members of the Board of Directors under the 2017 Plan and recorded $0.7 million to selling and administrative expense in our consolidated statements of income.
During the first quarter of 2019, we issued 58,738 shares of restricted common stock to our chief executive officer under his 2017 annual incentive agreement with a grant date fair value of $0.7 million and recorded $0.2 million to employee compensation and benefits in our consolidated statements of income. One quarter of the shares vested as of the grant date and one quarter will vest on each of the first, second and third anniversaries of the grant date. Our chief executive officer was also granted up to 352,427 performance-based restricted stock units that vest at the end of a four-year performance period based on our achievement of certain total stockholder return objectives. The restricted stock units had a grant date fair value of $1.7 million and we recorded less than $0.1 million to employee compensation and benefits in our consolidated statements of income. During the first quarter of 2019, 445,765 shares of previously granted performance-based restricted stock units fully vested, which were net settled for 203,492 common shares.
Earnings Per Share. Basic EPS is calculated by dividing net income attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during each period inclusive of unvested restricted stock with full dividend participation rights. Diluted EPS is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding plus the additional dilutive effect of common stock equivalents during each period using the treasury stock method. Our common stock equivalents include the weighted average dilutive effect of performance-based restricted stock units granted to our chief executive officer, OP Units and convertible senior unsecured notes.

Note 17 — Income Taxes
As a REIT, we are generally not subject to U.S. federal income tax to the extent of our distributions to stockholders and as long as certain asset, income, distribution, ownership and administrative tests are met. To maintain our qualification as a REIT, we must annually distribute at least 90% of our REIT taxable income to our stockholders and meet certain other requirements. We may also be subject to certain state, local and franchise taxes. Under certain circumstances, federal income and excise taxes may be due on our undistributed taxable income. If we were to fail to meet these requirements, we would be subject to U.S. federal income tax, which could have a material adverse impact on our results of operations and amounts available for distributions to our stockholders. We believe that all of the criteria to maintain our REIT qualification have been met for the applicable periods, but there can be no assurance that these criteria will continue to be met in subsequent periods.

The Agency Business is operated through our TRS Consolidated Group and is subject to U.S. federal, state and local income taxes. In general, our TRS entities may hold assets that the REIT cannot hold directly and may engage in real estate or non-real estate-related business.
In the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, we recorded a tax provision of $4.4 million and $4.3 million, respectively. In the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, we recorded a tax provision of $4.5 million and a tax benefit of $4.3 million, respectively. The tax provision recorded in the three months ended June 30, 2019 consisted of a current tax provision of $3.5 million and a deferred tax provision of $0.9 million. The tax provision recorded in the six months ended June 30, 2019 consisted of a current tax provision of $7.6 million and a deferred tax benefit of $3.3 million. The tax provision recorded in the three months ended June 30, 2018 consisted of a current tax provision of $4.3 million and a deferred tax provision of $0.2 million. The tax benefit recorded in the six months ended June 30, 2018 consisted of a current tax provision of $8.8 million and a deferred tax benefit of $13.1 million. The deferred tax benefit recorded in the six months ended June 30, 2018 was due primarily to our payoff in January 2018 of the $50.0 million preferred equity interest entered into with ACM to finance a portion of the Acquisition purchase price.
Current and deferred taxes are primarily recorded on the portion of earnings (losses) recognized by us with respect to our interest in the TRS’s. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are calculated based on temporary differences between our U.S. GAAP consolidated financial statements and the federal, state, local tax basis of assets and liabilities as of the consolidated balance sheets.
Note 18 — Agreements and Transactions with Related Parties
Shared Services Agreement. We have a shared services agreement with ACM where we provide limited support services to ACM and they reimburse us for the costs of performing such services, which are included in due from related party on the consolidated balance sheets. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, we incurred $0.5 million and $1.5 million, respectively, and, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, we incurred $0.3 million and $0.6 million, respectively, of costs for services provided to ACM.
Other Related Party Transactions.

In 2017, a consortium of investors (which includes, among other unaffiliated investors, our chief executive officer and ACM) invested $2.0 million for a 26.1% ownership interest in two portfolios of multifamily properties which has two bridge loans totaling $14.8 million originated by us in 2016. The loans had an interest rate of LIBOR plus 5.25% with a LIBOR floor of 0.5% and were scheduled to mature in November 2018.

Interest income recorded from these loans totaled $0.2 million and $0.3 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively.
In 2017, Ginkgo Investment Company LLC (“Ginkgo”), of which one of our directors is a 33% managing member, purchased a multifamily apartment complex which assumed an existing $8.3 million Fannie Mae loan that we service. Ginkgo subsequently sold the majority of its interest in this property and owned a 3.6% interest at June 30, 2019. We carry a maximum loss-sharing obligation with Fannie Mae on this loan of up to 20% of the original UPB. Upon the sale, we received a 1% loan assumption fee which was governed by existing loan agreements that were in place when the loan was originated in 2015, prior to such purchase. Servicing revenue recorded from this loan was less than $0.1 million for all periods presented.
In 2016, we originated $48.0 million of bridge loans on six multifamily properties owned in part by a consortium of investors (which includes, among other unaffiliated investors, certain of our officers and our chief executive officer) which owns interests ranging from 10.5% to 12.0% in the borrowing entities.

In 2015, we invested $9.6 million for 50% of ACM’s indirect interest in a joint venture with a third-party that was formed to invest in a residential mortgage banking business. As a result of this transaction, we had an initial indirect interest of 22.5% in this entity. Since the initial investment, we invested an additional $16.1 million through this joint venture in non-qualified residential mortgages purchased from the mortgage banking business’s origination platform and we received cash distributions totaling $16.9 million (that were classified as returns of capital) as a result of the joint venture selling most of its non-qualified mortgage assets. We recorded income from these investments of $2.7 million and $3.5 million in the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, and $0.7 million and $0.8 million in the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively. In connection with a litigation settlement related to this investment, we provided a guaranty of up to 50% of any amounts payable in connection with the settlement. ACM has also provided us with a guaranty to pay up to 50% of any amounts we may pay under this guaranty. As of June 30, 2019, our maximum exposure under this guaranty totaled $1.2 million. We have not accrued this amount as we do not believe that we will be required to make any nonrefundable payments under this guaranty. See Note 8 — Investments in Equity Affiliates for details.
In 2014, ACM purchased a property subject to two loans originated by us, a first mortgage of $14.6 million and a second mortgage of $5.1 million, both with maturity dates of April 2016 and an interest rate of LIBOR plus 4.8%. In 2016, the $5.1 million second mortgage was repaid in full and the $14.6 million first mortgage was extended to April 2018 and paid off at maturity. Interest income recorded from these loans totaled less than $0.1 million and $0.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively.
We, along with an executive officer of ours and a consortium of independent outside investors, hold equity investments in a portfolio of multifamily properties referred to as the “Lexford” portfolio, which is managed by an entity owned primarily by a consortium of affiliated investors, including our chief executive officer and an executive officer of ours. Based on the terms of the management contract, the management company is entitled to 4.75% of gross revenues of the underlying properties, along with the potential to share in the proceeds of a sale or restructuring of the debt. In June 2018, the owners of Lexford restructured part of its debt and we originated twelve bridge loans totaling $280.5 million, which were used to repay in full certain existing mortgage debt and to renovate 72 multifamily properties included in the portfolio. The loans, which we originated in June 2018, have interest rates of LIBOR plus 4.0% and mature in June 2021 (with 2 one-year extension options). During the six months ended June 30, 2019, the borrower made partial paydowns of principal totaling $109.8 million. In addition, the borrower made additional paydowns of principal totaling $140.3 million in July 2019. Interest income recorded from these loans totaled $3.5 million and $8.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, and $1.1 million in both the three and six months ended June 30, 2018. Further, as part of this June 2018 restructuring, $50.0 million in unsecured financing was provided by an unsecured lender to certain parent entities of the property owners. ACM owns slightly less than half of the unsecured lender entity and, therefore, provided slightly less than half of the unsecured lender financing. In addition, in connection with our equity investment, we received distributions totaling $0.6 million during both the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, and $1.9 million and $1.2 million during the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, which were recorded as income from equity affiliates. Separate from the loans we originated in June 2018, we provide limited (“bad boy”) guarantees for certain other debt controlled by Lexford. The bad boy guarantees may become a liability for us upon standard “bad” acts such as fraud or a material misrepresentation by Lexford or us. At June 30, 2019, this debt had an aggregate outstanding balance of $442.9 million and is scheduled to mature between 2019 and 2025.
Several of our executives, including our chief financial officer, general counsel and our chairman, chief executive officer and president, hold similar positions for ACM. Our chief executive officer and his affiliated entities (“the Kaufman Entities”) together beneficially own approximately 31% of the outstanding membership interests of ACM and certain of our employees and directors also hold an ownership interest in ACM. Furthermore, one of our directors serves as the trustee and co-trustee of two of the Kaufman Entities that hold membership interests in ACM. Upon the closing of the Acquisition in 2016, we issued OP Units, each paired with one share of our special voting preferred shares. At June 30, 2019, ACM holds 4,285,694 shares of our common stock and 14,772,918 OP Units, which represents 16.6% of the voting power of our outstanding stock. Our Board of Directors approved a resolution under our charter allowing our chief executive officer and ACM, (which our chief executive officer has a controlling equity interest in), to own more than the 5% ownership interest limit of our common stock as stated in our amended charter.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
You should read the following discussion in conjunction with the unaudited consolidated interim financial statements, and related notes and the section entitled “Forward-Looking Statements” included herein.
Overview
Through our Structured Business, we invest in a diversified portfolio of structured finance assets in the multifamily and commercial real estate markets, primarily consisting of bridge and mezzanine loans, including junior participating interests in first mortgages, preferred and direct equity. We may also directly acquire real property and invest in real estate-related notes and certain mortgage-related securities. Through our Agency Business, we originate, sell and service a range of multifamily finance products through GSE, HUD and CMBS programs. We retain the servicing rights and asset management responsibilities on substantially all loans we originate and sell under the GSE and HUD programs.
We conduct our operations to qualify as a REIT. A REIT is generally not subject to federal income tax on its REIT—taxable income that is distributed to its stockholders, provided that at least 90% of its REIT—taxable income is distributed and provided that certain other requirements are met.
Our operating performance is primarily driven by the following factors:
Net interest income earned on our investments . Net interest income represents the amount by which the interest income earned on our assets exceeds the interest expense incurred on our borrowings. If the yield on our assets increases or the cost or borrowings decreases, this will have a positive impact on earnings. However, if the yield earned on our assets decreases, or the cost of borrowings increases, this will have a negative impact on earnings. Net interest income is also directly impacted by the size and performance of our asset portfolio. We recognize the bulk of our net interest income from our Structured Business. Additionally, we recognize net interest income from loans originated through our Agency Business, which are generally sold within 60 days of origination.
Fees and other revenues recognized from originating, selling and servicing mortgage loans through the GSE and HUD programs . Revenue recognized from the origination and sale of mortgage loans consists of gains on sale of loans (net of any direct loan origination costs incurred), commitment fees, broker fees, loan assumption fees and loan origination fees. These gains and fees are collectively referred to as gain on sales, including fee-based services, net. We record income from MSRs at the time of commitment to the borrower, which represents the fair value of the expected net future cash flows associated with the rights to service mortgage loans that we originate, with the recognition of a corresponding asset upon sale. We also record servicing revenue which consists of fees received for servicing mortgage loans and earnings on escrows, net of amortization on the MSR assets recorded. These originations, selling and servicing fees and other revenues are included in our Agency Business results. Although we have long-established relationships with the GSE and HUD agencies, our operating performance would be negatively impacted if our business relationships with these agencies deteriorate.
Income earned from our structured transactions . Our structured transactions are primarily comprised of investments in equity affiliates, which represent unconsolidated joint venture investments formed to acquire, develop and/or sell real estate-related assets. Operating results from our unconsolidated equity investments can be difficult to predict and can vary significantly period-to-period. In addition, we periodically receive distributions from our equity investments. It is difficult to forecast the timing of such payments, which can be substantial in any given quarter. We account for structured transactions within our Structured Business.
Credit quality of our loans and investments, including our servicing portfolio . Effective portfolio management is essential to maximize the performance and value of our loan, investment and servicing portfolios. Maintaining the credit quality of the loans in our portfolios is of critical importance. Loans that do not perform in accordance with their terms may have a negative impact on earnings and liquidity.
Significant Developments During the Second Quarter of 2019
Capital Markets Activity. In May 2019, we completed a public offering and sold 9,200,000 shares of our common stock for $12.58 per share, receiving net proceeds of $115.6 million. See Note 16 — Equity for details.
Financing Activity.
· In June 2019, we closed our eleventh collateralized securitization vehicle (CLO XI) totaling $650.0 million of real estate related assets and cash, of which $533.0 million of investment grade notes were issued to third party investors and $69.1 million of below investment-grade notes and a $47.9 million equity interest in the portfolio were retained by us;
· We completed the unwind of CLO VI, redeeming $250.3 million of outstanding notes which were repaid primarily from refinancing the remaining assets within our existing financing facilities (including CLO XI), as well as with cash held by CLO VI, and expensed $1.2 million of deferred financing fees into interest expense; and
· We increased the capacity of our Structured financing facilities by over $375.0 million, including $300.0 million in increases to existing facilities and new facilities with capacity in excess of $75.0 million.
Agency Business Activity.
· Loan originations and sales totaled $1.29 billion and $923.0 million, respectively; and
· Our fee-based servicing portfolio grew 3% to $19.46 billion from $18.88 billion at March 31, 2019.
Structured Business Activity. Our Structured loan and investment portfolio grew 15% to $3.93 billion on loan originations totaling $1.01 billion, offset by loan runoff of $503.1 million.
Dividend. We raised our quarterly dividend to $0.29 per share, which represents a 4% increase from the dividend declared in the first quarter of 2019.
Current Market Conditions, Risks and Recent Trends
Our ability to execute our business strategy, particularly the growth of our Structured Business portfolio of loans and investments, depends on many factors, including our ability to access capital and financing on favorable terms. The past economic downturn had a significant negative impact on both us and our borrowers and limited our ability for growth. If similar economic conditions recur in the future, it may limit our options for raising capital and obtaining financing on favorable terms and may also adversely impact the creditworthiness of our borrowers which could result in their inability to repay their loans.
We rely on the capital markets to generate capital for financing the growth of our business. While we have been successful in generating capital through the debt and equity markets over the past several quarters, there can be no assurance that we will continue to have access to such markets. If we were to experience a prolonged downturn in the stock or credit markets, it could cause us to seek alternative sources of potentially less attractive financing, and may require us to adjust our business plan accordingly.
Although the Federal Reserve has been gradually increasing the federal funds rate since 2015, they have not raised rates during the first half of 2019. To date, we have not been significantly impacted by these increases and do not anticipate a significant decline in origination volume or profitability as interest rates remain at relatively low levels. However, we cannot be certain that such a trend will continue as the number, timing, and magnitude of additional increases by the Federal Reserve, combined with other macroeconomic and market factors, may have a different effect on the commercial real estate market and on us.
The Trump administration continues to focus on several issues that could impact interest rates and the U.S. economy. While there is uncertainty regarding the specifics and timing of any future policy changes, any such actions could impact our business.
We are a national originator with Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, and the GSEs remain the most significant providers of capital to the multifamily market. The Federal Housing Finance Agency’s (“FHFA”) GSE 2019 Scorecard (“2019 Scorecard”) established Fannie Mae’s and Freddie Mac’s loan origination caps (“2019 Caps”) at $35.0 billion each for the multifamily finance market, mirroring the 2018 loan origination caps. Affordable housing loans, loans to small multifamily properties, and manufactured housing rental community loans continue to be excluded from the 2019 Caps. The 2019 Scorecard continues to provide FHFA the flexibility to review the estimated size of the multifamily loan origination market quarterly and proactively adjust the 2019 Caps accordingly, however, the FHFA will not reduce the 2019 Caps in the event that the multifamily market is smaller than anticipated. The 2019 Scorecard also continues to provide exclusions for loans to properties in underserved markets and for loans to finance certain energy or water efficiency improvements, however, to qualify for this exclusion, multifamily loans that finance energy or water efficiency improvements must now project a minimum 30% reduction in whole property energy and water consumption and a minimum of 15% of the reduction must be in energy consumption. FHFA is also adding a data collection requirement for all excluded Green Rewards and Green Up/Green Up Plus loans, which requires engagement of a third-party data collection firm prior to closing. Our originations with the GSEs are highly profitable executions as they provide significant gains from the sale of our loans, non-cash gains related to MSRs and servicing revenues. Therefore, a decline in our GSE originations would negatively impact our financial results. We are unsure whether the FHFA will impose stricter limitations on GSE multifamily production volume in the future.
The commercial real estate markets remain strong, but uncertainty remains as a result of global market instability, the current political climate and other matters and their potential impact on the U.S. economy and commercial real estate markets. In addition, the growth in multifamily rental rates seen over the past few years are showing signs of stabilizing. If real estate values decline and/or rent growth subsides, it may limit our new mortgage loan originations since borrowers often use increases in the value of, and revenues produced from, their existing properties to support the purchase or investment in additional properties. Declining real estate values may also significantly increase the likelihood that we will incur losses on our loans in the event of default because the value of our collateral may be insufficient to cover our cost on the loan. Any sustained period of increased payment delinquencies, foreclosures or losses could adversely affect both our net interest income from loans as well as our ability to originate, sell and securitize loans, which would significantly impact our results of operations, financial condition, business prospects and our ability to make distributions to our stockholders.
The economic environment over the past few years has seen continued improvement in commercial real estate values, which has generally increased payoffs and reduced the credit exposure in our loan and investment portfolio. We have made, and continue to make, modifications and extensions to loans when it is economically feasible to do so. In some cases, a modification is a more viable alternative to foreclosure proceedings when a borrower cannot comply with loan terms. In doing so, lower borrower interest rates, combined with non-performing loans, would lower our net interest margins when comparing interest income to our costs of financing. However, over the past several years, the levels of modifications and delinquencies have generally declined as property values have increased and borrowers’ access to financing has improved. If the markets were to deteriorate and the U.S. experienced a prolonged economic downturn, we believe there could be additional loan modifications and delinquencies, which may result in reduced net interest margins and additional losses throughout our sector.
Changes in Financial Condition
Assets — Comparison of balances at June 30, 2019 to December 31, 2018:
Restricted cash increased $135.8 million, primarily due to payoffs on our CLO loans in excess of loans transferred into our CLO vehicles. Restricted cash is kept on deposit with the trustees for our CLOs and primarily represents proceeds received from loan payoffs and paydowns that have not yet been disbursed to bondholders or redeployed into new assets, as well as unfunded loan commitments and interest payments received from loans.
Our Structured loan and investment portfolio balance was $3.93 billion and $3.28 billion at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. This increase was primarily due to loan originations exceeding payoffs and other reductions by $647.8 million. See below for details.
Our portfolio had a weighted average current interest pay rate of 6.64% and 7.02% at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. Including certain fees earned and costs associated with the structured portfolio, the weighted average current interest rate was 7.34% and 7.66% at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. Advances on our financing facilities totaled $3.62 billion and $2.89 billion at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, with a weighted average funding cost of 4.45% and 4.66%, respectively, which excludes financing costs. Including financing costs, the weighted average funding rate was 4.96% and 5.24% at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.

Securities held-to-maturity increased $9.7 million due to the purchase of SFR bonds.
Investments in equity affiliates increased $9.6 million, primarily due to a $6.0 million investment in AMAC III, a multifamily-focused commercial real estate investment fund, and income from our investment in a residential mortgage banking business of $3.5 million . See Note 8 — Investments in Equity Affiliates for details.
Due from related party increased $15.7 million, primarily due to funds from payoffs to be remitted by our affiliated servicing operations related to real estate transactions closing at the end of the second quarter of 2019. These amounts were remitted to us in early July 2019.
Other assets increased $24.3 million, primarily due to the adoption of ASU 2016-02, which required us to record an operating lease ROU asset. See Note 2 — Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies for details.
Liabilities — Comparison of balances at June 30, 2019 to December 31, 2018:
Credit facilities and repurchase agreements increased $486.1 million, primarily due to funding of new structured loan activity and the financing of securities, along with an increase in financings on our loans held-for-sale as a result of loan originations exceeding loan sales in the first half of 2019.
Collateralized loan obligations increased $281.9 million, primarily due to the issuance of a new CLO, where we issued $533.0 million of notes to third party investors, partially offset by the unwind of a CLO totaling $250.3 million.
Senior unsecured notes increased $88.5 million due to our issuance of $90.0 million of our 5.75% Notes.
Due to borrowers increased $13.6 million, primarily due to an increase in funds held on loan originations.
Other liabilities decreased $7.8 million, primarily due to the payment of the special dividend declared in 2018 and incentive compensation related to 2018 performance during the first half of 2019, partially offset by the adoption of ASU 2016-02, which required us to record an operating lease liability.
Equity
We completed a public offering where we sold 9,200,000 shares of our common stock for $12.58 per share, and received net proceeds of $115.6 million. We used a portion of the net proceeds from this offering to purchase an aggregate of 920,000 shares of our common stock from our chief executive officer and ACM at the same price the underwriters paid to purchase the shares.

(1) Prepayments reflect loans repaid prior to six months from the loan’s maturity. The majority of our loan servicing portfolio has a prepayment protection term and therefore, we may collect a prepayment fee which is included as a component of servicing revenue, net.
(2) Delinquent loans reflect loans that are contractually 60 days or more past due. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, delinquent loans totaled $47.3 million and $35.6 million, respectively, of which $29.9 million and $35.6 million, respectively, were in the foreclosure process. For the periods presented, no loans collateralizing our servicing portfolio are currently in bankruptcy.
Our servicing portfolio represents commercial real estate loans originated in our Agency Business, which are generally transferred or sold within 60 days from the date the loan is funded. Primarily all of the loans in our servicing portfolio are collateralized by multifamily properties. In addition, we are generally required to share in the risk of any losses associated with loans sold under the Fannie Mae DUS program, see Note 11 — Allowance for Loss-Sharing Obligations.

(1) Based on UPB for loans, amortized cost for securities and principal amount of debt.
(2) Weighted average yield calculated based on annualized interest income or expense divided by average carrying value.
Net Interest Income
The increase in interest income was primarily due to an increase of $22.0 million, or 41%, from our Structured Business. The increase was primarily due to a 24% increase in our average core interest-earning assets, as a result of loan originations exceeding loan runoff, and an 11% increase in the average yield on core interest-earning assets, largely due to increases in the average LIBOR rate and acceleration fees from early runoff, in addition to default interest and fees on a loan that paid off during the second quarter of 2019.
The increase in interest expense is primarily due to an increase of $10.1 million, or 29%, from our Structured Business. The increase was primarily due to a 32% increase in the average balance of our interest-bearing liabilities, due to growth in our loan portfolio and the issuance of additional CLO and unsecured debt.
Agency Business Revenue
The decrease in gain on sales, including fee-based services, net was primarily due to a 9% decrease in loan sales volume.
The increase in income from MSRs was primarily due to a $222.6 million, or 21%, increase in loan commitment volume, as a result of an increase in Agency loan originations, partially offset by a 13% decrease in the MSR rate (income from MSRs as a percentage of loan commitment volume) from 1.66% to 1.44%. The decrease in the MSR rate was primarily due to an increase in CMBS volume which we do not service, as well as a portfolio of larger loans with lower servicing fees.
The increase in servicing revenue, net was primarily due to an increase in our servicing portfolio and an increase in earnings on escrows due to increases in average escrow balances and the average LIBOR rate. Our servicing portfolio increased 14% from $17.11 billion at June 30, 2018 to $19.46 billion at June 30, 2019. Our servicing revenue, net in both the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, included $12.3 million and $11.9 million, respectively, of amortization expense.
Other Income, Net
The increase in other income, net was due to changes in the fair value of rate lock commitments in our Agency Business. See Note 13 — Fair Value for details.
Other Expenses
The increase in employee compensation and benefits expense was primarily due to an increase of $2.1 million, or 11%, from our Agency Business. The increase was primarily due to increases in accrued compensation and headcount associated with portfolio growth.
The increase in selling and administrative expenses was primarily due to an increase of $1.8 million, or 52%, in our Structured Business, mainly from higher professional fees.
Impairment loss on real estate owned was $1.0 million and $2.0 million in the second quarter of 2019 and 2018. During these periods, we received market analysis which resulted in impairment losses on our real estate properties owned. See Note 9 — Real Estate Owned for details.
The recovery for loan losses in the second quarter of 2018 was due to a $31.6 million settlement of a preferred equity investment with a carrying value of $29.1 million resulting in a $2.5 million recovery and a $0.9 million payment received on a written-off junior participation interest in an office building. These recoveries were partially offset by a $1.3 million provision recorded on a bridge loan.
Income from Equity Affiliates
Income from equity affiliates in the second quarter of 2019 and 2018 was comprised primarily of income from our investment in a residential mortgage banking business of $2.7 million and $0.7 million, respectively, and distributions from an equity investment totaling $0.6 million for both periods and. See Note 8 — Investments in Equity Affiliates for details.
Provision for Income Taxes
In the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, we recorded a tax provision of $4.4 million and $4.5 million, respectively. The tax provision recorded in the three months ended June 30, 2019 consisted of a current tax provision of $3.5 million and a deferred tax provision of $0.9 million. The tax provision in the three months ended June 30, 2018 consisted of a current tax provision of $4.3 million and a deferred tax provision of $0.2 million.
Net Income Attributable to Noncontrolling Interest
The noncontrolling interest relates to the outstanding OP Units issued as part of the Acquisition. There were 20,484,094 OP Units and 21,230,769 OP Units outstanding as of June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, which represented 17.9% and 23.6% of our outstanding stock at June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

(1) Based on UPB for loans, amortized cost for securities and principal amount of debt.
(2) Weighted average yield calculated based on annualized interest income or expense divided by average carrying value.
Net Interest Income
The increase in interest income was primarily due to an increase of $40.5 million, or 40%, from our Structured Business. The increase was primarily due to a 24% increase in our average core interest-earning assets, as a result of loan originations exceeding loan runoff, and an 11% increase in the average yield on core interest-earning assets, largely due to increases in the average LIBOR rate and acceleration fees from early runoff, in addition to default interest and fees on a loan that paid off during the second quarter of 2019.
The increase in interest expense is primarily due to an increase of $18.2 million, or 28%, from our Structured Business. The increase was primarily due to a 30% increase in the average balance of our interest-bearing liabilities, due to growth in our loan portfolio and the issuance of additional CLO and unsecured debt.
Agency Business Revenue
The decrease in gain on sales, including fee-based services, net was primarily due to a 7% decrease in sales margin (gain on sales, including fee-based services, net as a percentage of loan sales volume) from 1.63% to 1.51% and a $55.9 million decrease in loan sales volume. The decrease in sales margin was primarily due to the product mix of loan sales.
The decrease in income from MSRs was primarily due to a 13% decrease in the MSR rate (income from MSRs as a percentage of loan commitment volume) from 1.77% to 1.53%, primarily due to an increase in CMBS volume which we do not service and a portfolio of larger loans with lower servicing fees.
The increase in servicing revenue, net was primarily due to an increase in our servicing portfolio and an increase in earnings on escrows due to increases in average escrow balances and the average LIBOR rate. Our servicing portfolio increased 14% from $17.11 billion at June 30, 2018 to $19.46 billion at June 30, 2019. Our servicing revenue, net in both the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, included $24.6 million and $23.8 million, respectively, of amortization expense.
Other Income, Net
The decrease in other income, net was due to changes in the fair value of rate lock commitments in our Agency Business. See Note 13 — Fair Value for details.
Other Expenses
The increase in employee compensation and benefits expense is comprised of $3.5 million from our Agency Business and $0.9 million from our Structured Business. The increase in both businesses is primarily due to increases in accrued compensation and headcount associated with each business’s portfolio growth.
The increase in selling and administrative expenses was primarily due to an increase of $2.7 million, or 39%, in our Structured Business, mainly from higher professional fees.
Impairment loss on real estate owned was $1.0 million and $2.0 million in the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. During these periods, we received market analysis which resulted in impairment losses on our real estate properties owned. See Note 9 — Real Estate Owned for details.
The recovery for loan losses for the six months ended June 30, 2018 was due to a $31.6 million settlement of a preferred equity investment with a carrying value of $29.1 million resulting in a $2.5 million recovery and a $0.9 million payment received on a written-off junior participation interest in an office building. These recoveries were partially offset by a $1.7 million provision recorded on a bridge loan.
Income from Equity Affiliates
Income from equity affiliates in the first half of 2019 and 2018 was comprised primarily of income from our investment in a residential mortgage banking business of $3.5 million and $0.8 million, respectively, and distributions from an equity investment totaling $1.9 million and $1.2 million, respectively. See Note 8 — Investments in Equity Affiliates for details.
(Provision for) Benefit from Income Taxes
In the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, we recorded a tax provision of $4.3 million and a tax benefit of $4.3 million, respectively. The tax provision recorded in the six months ended June 30, 2019 consisted of a current tax provision of $7.6 million and a deferred tax benefit of $3.3 million. The tax benefit in the six months ended June 30, 2018 consisted of a deferred tax benefit of $13.1 million and a current tax provision of $8.8 million. The deferred tax benefit in the six months ended June 30, 2018 was due primarily to our payoff in January 2018 of the $50.0 million preferred equity interest entered into with ACM to finance a portion of the Acquisition purchase price.
Net Income Attributable to Noncontrolling Interest
The noncontrolling interest relates to the outstanding OP Units issued as part of the Acquisition. There were 20,484,094 OP Units and 21,230,769 OP Units outstanding as of June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, which represented 17.9% and 23.6% of our outstanding stock at June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Sources of Liquidity. Liquidity is a measure of our ability to meet our potential cash requirements, including ongoing commitments to repay borrowings, satisfaction of collateral requirements under the Fannie Mae DUS risk-sharing agreement and, as an approved designated seller/servicer of Freddie Mac’s SBL program, operational liquidity requirements of the GSE agencies, fund new loans and investments, fund operating costs and distributions to our stockholders, as well as other general business needs. Our primary sources of funds for liquidity consist of proceeds from equity and debt offerings, debt facilities and cash flows from our operations. We closely monitor our liquidity position and believe our existing sources of funds and access to additional liquidity will be adequate to meet our liquidity needs.
While we have been successful in obtaining proceeds from debt and equity offerings, CLOs and certain financing facilities, current conditions in the capital and credit markets have and may continue to make certain forms of financing less attractive and, in certain cases, less available. Therefore, we will continue to rely, in part, on cash flows provided by operating and investing activities for working capital.
To maintain our status as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code, we must distribute annually at least 90% of our REIT-taxable income. These distribution requirements limit our ability to retain earnings and thereby replenish or increase capital for operations. However, we believe that our capital resources and access to financing will provide us with financial flexibility and market responsiveness at levels sufficient to meet current and anticipated capital requirements.
Cash Flows. Cash flows used in operating activities totaled $77.7 million during the six months ended June 30, 2019 and consisted primarily of net cash outflows of $124.4 million as a result of loan originations exceeding loan sales in our Agency Business and a $15.7 million period-over-period increase in due from related parties due to funds from payoffs to be remitted by our affiliated servicing operations, partially offset by net income of $67.4 million.
Cash flows used in investing activities totaled $628.4 million during the six months ended June 30, 2019. Loan and investment activity (originations and payoffs/paydowns) comprise the bulk of our investing activities. Loan originations from our Structured Business totaling $1.40 billion, net of payoffs and paydowns of $796.7 million, resulted in net cash outflows of $602.2 million. Cash outflows also included $10.0 million to purchase SFR bonds and a $6.0 million investment in a new equity investment.
Cash flows provided by financing activities totaled $880.8 million during the six months ended June 30, 2019, and consisted primarily of net cash inflows of $486.3 million from debt facility activities (funded loan originations were greater than facility paydowns), net proceeds of $282.8 million from CLO activity, $104.2 million of net proceeds from the issuances of common stock and $90.0 million of proceeds received from the issuance of senior unsecured notes. These cash inflows were partially offset by $64.8 million of distributions to our stockholders and OP Unit holders.
Agency Business Requirements. The Agency Business is subject to supervision by certain regulatory agencies. Among other things, these agencies require us to meet certain minimum net worth, operational liquidity and restricted liquidity collateral requirements, purchase and loss obligations and compliance with reporting requirements. Our adjusted net worth and operational liquidity exceeded the agencies’ requirements as of June 30, 2019. Our restricted liquidity and purchase and loss obligations were satisfied with letters of credit totaling $49.0 million and $1.3 million of cash collateral. See Note 14 — Commitments and Contingencies for details about our performance regarding these requirements.
We also enter into contractual commitments with borrowers providing rate lock commitments while simultaneously entering into forward sale commitments with investors. These commitments are outstanding for short periods of time (generally less than 60 days) and are described in Note 12 — Derivative Financial Instruments.
Debt Instruments. We maintain various forms of short-term and long-term financing arrangements. Borrowings underlying these arrangements are primarily secured by a significant amount of our loans and investments and substantially all of our loans held-for-sale.

Derivative Financial Instruments
We enter into derivative financial instruments in the normal course of business to manage the potential loss exposure caused by fluctuations of interest rates. See Note 12 — Derivative Financial Instruments for details.
Critical Accounting Policies
Please refer to Note 2 — Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2018 Annual Report for a discussion of our critical accounting policies. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, there were no material changes to these policies, except for the lease policy established in connection with the adoption of ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), See Note 2 — Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies for details.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Funds from Operations and Adjusted Funds from Operations. We present funds from operations (“FFO”) and adjusted funds from operations (“AFFO”) because we believe they are important supplemental measures of our operating performance in that they are frequently used by analysts, investors and other parties in the evaluation of REITs. The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, or NAREIT, defines FFO as net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains (losses) from sales of depreciated real properties, plus impairments of depreciated real properties and real estate related depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated ventures.
We define AFFO as funds from operations adjusted for accounting items such as non-cash stock-based compensation expense, income from MSRs, changes in fair value of certain derivatives that temporarily flow through earnings, amortization and write-offs of MSRs, deferred taxes and amortization of convertible senior notes conversion options. We also add back one-time charges such as acquisition costs and impairment losses on real estate and gains on sales of real estate. We are generally not in the business of operating real estate property and had obtained real estate by foreclosure or through partial or full settlement of mortgage debt related to our loans to maximize the value of the collateral and minimize our exposure. Therefore, we deem such impairment and gains on real estate as an extension of the asset management of our loans, thus a recovery of principal or additional loss on our initial investment.
FFO and AFFO are not intended to be an indication of our cash flow from operating activities (determined in accordance with GAAP) or a measure of our liquidity, nor is it entirely indicative of funding our cash needs, including our ability to make cash distributions. Our calculation of FFO and AFFO may be different from the calculations used by other companies and, therefore, comparability may be limited.
FFO and AFFO are as follows ($ in thousands, except share and per share data):

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
We disclosed a quantitative and qualitative analysis regarding market risk in the Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in our 2018 Annual Report. That information is supplemented by the information included above in Item 2 of this report. Other than the developments described thereunder, there have been no material changes in our quantitative and qualitative exposure to market risk since December 31, 2018.

(1) Represents the UPB of our loan portfolio and the principal balance of our debt.
Our Swap Futures are tied to the five-year and ten-year swap rates and hedge our exposure to rising interest rates inherent in our SFR loan portfolio from the time the loans are originated until the time they can be financed with match term fixed rate debt. A 100 basis point increase to the five-year and ten-year swap rates would have reduced our loss recorded in the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 by $0.8 million, while a 100 basis point decrease in the rates would have increased our loss by $0.8 million.
Our Agency Business originates, sells and services a range of multifamily finance products with Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac and HUD. Our loans held-for-sale to Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac and HUD are not currently exposed to interest rate risk during the loan commitment, closing and delivery process. The sale or placement of each loan to an investor is negotiated prior to closing on the loan with the borrower, and the sale or placement is generally effectuated within 60 days of closing. The coupon rate for the loan is set after we established the interest rate with the investor.
In addition, the fair value of our MSRs is subject to market risk since a significant driver of the fair value of these assets is the discount rates. A 100 basis point increase in the weighted average discount rate would decrease the fair value of our MSRs by $10.4 million as of June 30, 2019, while a 100 basis point decrease would increase the fair value by $11.0 million.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Management, with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures at June 30, 2019. Based on this evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2019.
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2019 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.
We are not involved in any material litigation nor, to our knowledge, is any material litigation threatened against us other than the litigation described in Note 14 — Commitments and Contingencies. We have not made a loss accrual
for any litigation because we believe that it is not probable that a loss has been incurred and an amount cannot be reasonably estimated.
There have been no material changes to the risk factors set forth in Item 1A of our 2018 Annual Report.
