Residential Whole-Loan Trust
The consolidated financial statements include the consolidation of Revolving Mortgage Investment Trust 2015-1QR2 ("RMI 2015 Trust") since it met the definition of a VIE and the Company determined that it was the primary beneficiary of the trust because it was involved in the design of the trust, has oversight rights on defaulted assets and has other significant decision making powers. In addition, the Company has the obligation to absorb losses to the extent of its ownership interest and the right to receive benefits from the trust that could potentially be significant to the trust.  RMI 2015 Trust has issued a trust certificate that is wholly-owned by the Company and represents the entire beneficial interest in pools of Non-QM Residential Whole Loans held by the trust. As of December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company financed the trust certificate with $209.9 million and $618.7 million, respectively, on long-term financing facilities which automatically roll until such time as they are terminated or until certain conditions of default. The financing liability is held outside the trust. The Company classifies the underlying Residential Whole Loans owned by the trust in "Residential Whole Loans, at fair value" in the Consolidated Balance Sheets and has eliminated the intercompany trust certificate in consolidation.

In August 2018, the Company formed Revolving Mortgage Investment Trust 2018-RCR ("RCR Trust") to acquire Conforming Residential Whole Loans. The Company determined that RCR Trust was a VIE and that the Company was the primary beneficiary of the trust because it was involved in the design of the trust, has oversight rights on defaulted assets and has other significant decision making powers. In addition, the Company has the obligation to absorb losses to the extent of its ownership interest and the right to receive benefits from the trust that could potentially be significant to the trust. As of December 31, 2019, and December 31, 2018, the Company financed the trust certificate with $164.3 million and $250.4 million, respectively, of repurchase agreements, which is a liability held outside the trust. The Company classifies the underlying conforming mortgages owned by the trust in "Residential Whole Loans, at fair value" in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company has eliminated the intercompany trust certificate in consolidation.

In September 2018, the Company formed Revolving Mortgage Investment Trust 2018-RNR ("RNR Trust") to acquire Non-QM Residential Whole Loans. The Company determined that RNR Trust was a VIE and that the Company was the primary beneficiary because it was involved in the design of the trust, has oversight rights on defaulted assets and has other significant decision making powers. In addition, the Company has the obligation to absorb losses to the extent of its ownership interest and the right to receive benefits from the trust that could potentially be significant to the trust. As of December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company's trust certificate was financed with $8.1 million and $15.1 million, respectively, of repurchase agreements, which is a liability held outside the trust. The Company classifies the underlying Non-QM Residential Whole Loans in "Residential Whole Loans, at fair value" in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company has eliminated the intercompany trust certificate in consolidation.

In May 2019, the Company completed a residential mortgage-backed securitization comprised of a portion of its Residential Whole Loan portfolio. During the securitization, RMI 2015 Trust and RNR Trust collectively transferred $945.5 million of Non-QM Residential Whole Loans, to a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, Arroyo Mortgage Trust 2019-2 ("Arroyo Trust"). The Company issued $919.0 million of mortgage-backed notes and retained all the subordinate and residual debt securities ("Owner Certificates"), which includes the required the 5% eligible risk retention. Refer to Note 7 - "Financings" for details on the associated securitized debt. The Company determined that Arroyo Trust was a VIE and that the Company was also the primary beneficiary because the Manager was involved in the design of the trust and the Company has significant decision making powers. In addition, the Company has the obligation to absorb losses to the extent of its ownership interest and the right to receive benefits from the Arroyo Trust that could potentially be significant to the trust. The Company classifies the underlying Non-QM Residential Whole Loans in "Residential Whole Loans, at fair value" in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company has eliminated the intercompany Owner Certificates in consolidation.

In November 2019, the Company formed Revolving Mortgage Investment Trust 2019-RBR ("RBR Trust") to acquire Non-QM Residential Whole Loans. The Company determined that RBR Trust was a VIE and that the Company was the primary beneficiary because it was involved in the design of the trust, has oversight rights on defaulted assets and has other significant decision making powers. In addition, the Company has the obligation to absorb losses to the extent of its ownership interest and the right to receive benefits from the trust that could potentially be significant to the trust. As of December 31, 2019, the Company's trust certificate was financed with $91.7 million of repurchase agreements, which is a liability held outside the trust. The Company classifies the underlying Non-QM Residential Whole Loans in "Residential Whole Loans, at fair value" in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company has eliminated the intercompany trust certificate in consolidation.

Residential Bridge Loan Trust

In February 2017, the Company formed Revolving Mortgage Investment Trust 2017-BRQ1 ("RMI 2017 Trust") and acquired the trust certificate, which represents the entire beneficial interest in pools of Residential Bridge Loans and certain Residential Whole Loans held by the trust. Residential Bridge Loans are mortgage loans secured by residences, typically short-term. The Company determined that RMI Trust was a VIE and that the Company was the primary beneficiary because it was involved in the design of the trust, has oversight rights on defaulted assets and has other significant decision making powers. In addition, the Company has the obligation to absorb losses to the extent of its ownership interest and the right to receive benefits from the trust that could potentially be significant to the trust. As of December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company financed the trust certificate with $32.1 million and $207.5 million, respectively, of repurchase agreement borrowings, which is a liability held outside the trust. The Company classifies both the underlying Residential Bridge Loans carried at amortized cost and the Residential Bridge Loans that it elected the fair value option in "Residential Bridge Loans" and the Residential Whole Loans in "Residential Whole Loans, at fair value" in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company has eliminated the intercompany trust certificate in consolidation.

Consolidated Residential Whole-Loan and Residential Bridge Loan Trusts

The Company assesses modifications to VIEs on an ongoing basis to determine if a significant reconsideration event has occurred that would change the Company’s initial consolidation assessment.  The five consolidated Residential Whole-Loan trusts collectively hold 3,520 Residential Whole Loans and the consolidated Bridge Loan Trust holds 68 Residential Bridge Loans and 9 Residential Whole Loans as of December 31, 2019.

(1) Includes $3.1 million loans carried at amortize cost.

Residential Whole Loans

As of December 31, 2019, there were 12 Residential Whole Loans carried at fair value in non-accrual status with an unpaid principal balance of approximately $7.1 million and a fair value of approximately $6.7 million. These nonperforming loans represent approximately 0.5% of the total outstanding principal balance. No allowance or provision for credit losses was recorded as of and for the year ended December 31, 2019 since the valuation adjustment, if any, would be reflected in the fair value of these loans. The Company stopped accruing interest income for these loans when they became contractually 90 days delinquent. As of December 31, 2018, there were no Residential Whole-Loans in non-accrual status.

Residential Bridge Loans

As of December 31, 2019, there were 27 Residential Bridge Loans carried at fair value in non-accrual status with an unpaid principal balance of approximately $12.1 million and a fair value of $11.4 million. These nonperforming loans represent approximately 32.6% of the total outstanding Bridge Loans principal balance of $37.2 million. These loans are collateral dependent with a weighted average original LTV of 72.1%.

As of December 31, 2018, there were 3 Residential Bridge Loans carried at amortized cost in non-accrual status with an unpaid principal balance of approximately $1.1 million and 9 Residential Bridge Loans carried at fair value in non-accrual status with an unpaid principal balance of $4.0 million and a fair value of $3.8 million. These nonperforming loans represented approximately 2.3% of the total outstanding Bridge Loans principal balance of $222.3 million. These loans are collateral dependent with a weighted average original LTV of 70.0%.

The Company concluded that an allowance for loan loss was not necessary for loans carried at amortized costs as of and for the years ended December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 since the fair value of the collateral balance less the cost to sell was in excess of the outstanding principal and interest balances. For loans carried at fair value no loan loss was recorded as of and for the years ended December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 since the valuation adjustment, if any, would be reflected in the fair value of these loans. The Company stopped accruing interest income for these loans when they became contractually 90 days delinquent.

As of December 31, 2019, the Company had real estate owned ("REO") with an aggregate carrying value of $3.3 million related to foreclosed Bridge Loans. The REO properties are held for sale and accordingly carried at the lower of cost or fair value less cost to sell. The REO properties are classified in "Other assets" in the Consolidated Balance Sheet.
Commercial Loans

Securitized Commercial Loans

Securitized commercial loans is comprised of commercial loans from consolidated third party sponsored CMBS VIE's. At December 31, 2019, the Company had variable interests in three CMBS VIEs, CMSC Trust 2015 - Longhouse MZ, RETL 2019-RVP and MRCD 2019-PRKC Mortgage Trust, that it determined it was the primary beneficiary and was required to consolidate. The commercial loans that serve as collateral for the securitized debt issued by these VIEs can only be used to settle the securitized debt. Refer to Note 7 - "Financings" for details on the associated securitized debt. The Company assesses modifications to VIEs on an ongoing basis to determine if a significant reconsideration event has occurred that would change the Company’s initial consolidation assessment.

CMSC Trust 2015 - Longhouse MZ

In November 2015, the Company acquired a $14.0 million interest in the trust certificate issued by CMSC Trust 2015 - Longhouse MZ (“CMSC Trust”), with an outstanding balance of $13.5 million and a fair value of $13.5 million at December 31, 2019. The Company determined that CMSC Trust was a VIE and that the Company was the primary beneficiary because it was involved in certain aspects of the design of the trust, has certain oversight rights on defaulted assets and has other significant decision making powers. In addition, the Company has the obligation to absorb losses to the extent of its ownership interest and the right to receive benefits from the trust that the Company believes could potentially be significant to the trust. As the primary beneficiary, the Company was required to consolidate CMSC Trust and accordingly its $13.5 million investment in CMSC Trust was eliminated in consolidation. The CMSC Trust holds a $24.0 million mezzanine loan, which bears an interest rate of 9%, collateralized by interests in commercial real estate.  The mezzanine loan serves as collateral for the $24.0 million of trust certificates issued. Refer to Note 7 - "Financings" for details on the associated securitized debt.

RETL 2019-RVP and RETL 2018-RVP
 
In March 2018, the Company acquired a $67.8 million interest in the trust certificate issued by RETL 2018-RVP (“RETL 2018 Trust”), which represents the 5% eligible horizontal residual interest under the Credit Risk Retention Rules of Section 15G of the Exchange Act. Under the credit risk retention rules, the Company must retain its investment for five years and is limited in its ability to finance and hedge its investment. The trust certificate's pass-through rate is one month LIBOR plus 9.5%. The Company determined that RETL 2018 Trust was a VIE and that the Company was the primary beneficiary because the Manager was involved in certain aspects of the design of the trust and the Company together with other related party entities own more than 50% of the controlling class. The owner of 50% or more of the controlling class has certain oversight rights on defaulted assets and has other significant decision making powers. In addition, the Company has the obligation to absorb losses to the extent of its ownership interest from the trust that the Company believes could potentially be significant to the trust. As the primary beneficiary, the Company consolidated RETL 2018 and its investment in the trust certificates (HRR class) of RETL 2018 was eliminated in the consolidation. In March 2019, the securitized debt was refinanced and the outstanding principal balance issued by RETL 2018 Trust was paid in full.

RETL 2018 was refinanced with a new securitization RETL 2019-RVP ("RETL 2019 Trust") in March 2019. The Company acquired a $65.3 million interest in the trust certificates issued by the RETL 2019 Trust, including $45.3 million which represents the 5% eligible risk retention certificate. The Company determined that RETL 2019 Trust was a VIE and that the Company was also the primary beneficiary because the Manager was involved in certain aspects of the design of the trust and the Company together with other related party entities own more than 50% of the controlling class. As the primary beneficiary, the Company consolidated RETL 2019 Trust and its investment in the trust certificates (HRR class and a portion of the C class) of RETL 2019 Trust were eliminated in the consolidation. The RETL 2019 Trust holds a commercial loan collateralized by first mortgages, deeds of trusts and interests in commercial real estate. The outstanding principal balance on this commercial loan is $674.3 million as of December 31, 2019. The loan's stated maturity date is March 15, 2021 (subject to the borrower's option to extend the initial stated maturity date for two successive one-year terms) and bears an interest rate of one month LIBOR plus 2.30%.

MRCD 2019-PRKC Mortgage Trust

In December 2019, the Company acquired a $161.4 million interest in the trust certificates issued by the MRCD 2019-PRKC Mortgage Trust ("MRCD Trust"), including $10.5 million which represents the initial controlling class (HRR class). The Company determined that MRCD Trust was a VIE and that the Company was also the primary beneficiary because the Manager was involved in certain aspects of the design of the trust and the Company owns the controlling class. As the primary beneficiary, the Company consolidated MRCD Trust and its investment in the trust certificates (HRR class and a portion of the A class) of MRCD Trust were eliminated in the consolidation. The MRCD Trust holds two commercial loans, class A and class HRR, collateralized by first mortgages, deeds of trusts and interests in commercial real estate. The outstanding principal balance on class A commercial loan is $234.5 million as of December 31, 2019 and bears an interest rate of 4.27%. The outstanding principal
balance on class HRR commercial loan is $10.5 million as of December 31, 2019 and bears an interest rate of 12.02%. The loans' stated maturity date is December 9, 2024.

Commercial Loan Trust

In March 2018, the Company formed the Revolving Small Balance Commercial Trust 2018-1 ("RSBC Trust") to acquire commercial real estate mortgage loans. The Company determined that the wholly-owned RSBC Trust was a VIE and that the Company was the primary beneficiary because it was involved in the design of the trust and holds significant decision making powers. In addition, the Company has the obligation to absorb losses to the extent of its ownership interest and the right to receive benefits from the trust that could potentially be significant to the trust. As of December 31, 2019, the Company financed the trust certificate with $62.7 million of repurchase agreements, which is a liability held outside the trust.

The Company’s risk with respect to its investment in each commercial loan trust is limited to its direct ownership in the trust. The commercial loans held by the consolidated trusts are held solely to satisfy the liabilities of the trust, and creditors of the trust have no recourse to the general credit of the Company. The assets of a consolidated trust can only be used to satisfy the obligations of that trust. The Company is not contractually required and has not provided any additional financial support to the trusts for the years ended December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018
