New York, NY, October 30, 2019 - KKR Real Estate Finance Trust Inc. (the “Company” or “KREF”) (NYSE: KREF) today reported its financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2019.

Reported net income attributable to common stockholders of $23.6 million, or $0.41 per basic and diluted share of common stock, for the three months ended September 30, 2019, compared to net income attributable to common stockholders of $17.4 million or $0.30 per basic and diluted share of common stock for the three months ended June 30, 2019.

Reported Net Core Earnings of $25.0 million, or $0.43 per basic and diluted share of common stock, for the three months ended September 30, 2019, compared to Net Core Earnings of $20.5 million, or $0.36 per basic and diluted share of common stock for the three months ended June 30, 2019.

Third Quarter 2019 Highlights

•
Committed and initially funded $484.0 million and $375.3 million, respectively, to four new floating-rate senior loans. Funded an additional $96.4 million for loans closed prior to the third quarter. Loan commitments over the last twelve months totaled $3,268.2 million.

•
Received approximately $193.5 million from the repayment of loans.

Current portfolio of $5.2 billion, the highest funded balance to date for the Company, is 100% performing and 99% floating-rate with a weighted average loan-to-value ratio ("LTV") of 67% as of September 30, 2019. Current portfolio increased 54% over the third quarter of 2018 and 5% since June 30, 2019.

•
Sold our remaining direct CMBS B-Piece investments for $9.8 million. This sale represents the full exit from our 2015 and 2016 vintage direct B-piece investments and results in a gross realized IRR of 18.8% for the entire direct B-piece portfolio over the investment period.

•
Book value was $1,122.0 million or $19.54 per share as of September 30, 2019, consistent with June 30, 2019.



Chris Lee and Matt Salem, Co-Chief Executive Officers of KREF, stated: “The second half of 2019 is off to a great start. The increase in our GAAP and Net Core Earnings on a gross and per share basis reflects our fully deployed earnings potential, the benefit of in the money LIBOR floors and our differentiated liability structure. Despite the competitive market environment, we continue to benefit from our strong competitive position, existing relationships and brand awareness. Our loan originations are consistent with the quality and risk profile of our existing portfolio. We believe we have built a defensive portfolio, focused on capital preservation with institutional quality real estate, owned by high-quality sponsors in the most liquid markets.”

Book Value

The Company’s book value per share of common stock was $19.54 at September 30, 2019, as compared to book value per share of common stock of $19.54 at June 30, 2019 and $19.66 at December 31, 2018.

Book value per share as of September 30, 2019 includes the year to date impact of a $0.7 million, or $0.01 per common share, non-cash redemption value adjustment to our redeemable Special Non-Voting Preferred Stock (“SNVPS”), resulting in a cumulative (since issuance of the SNVPS) decrease of $2.1 million to our book value (“SNVPS Cumulative Impact”) as of September 30, 2019. Upon redemption of the SNVPS, our book value will increase as a result of a one-time gain, thus substantially eliminating the SNVPS Cumulative Impact on our book value. See Note 9 - Equity, to our condensed consolidated financial statements within our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2019, for detailed discussion of the SNVPS.

During the fourth quarter of 2019, we expect to recognize a decrease of approximately $0.4 million to the redemption value of our SNVPS and a corresponding increase to our book value. This change is due to the fact that we did not incur incentive compensation during the three months ended September 30, 2019. The non-cash redemption value adjustment will increase our fourth quarter Net Income Attributable to Common Stockholders (in accordance with GAAP) and will be deducted for Core Earnings.

Definitions:

"Loan-to-value ratio": Generally based on the initial loan amount divided by the as-is appraised value as of the date the loan was originated or by the current principal amount as of the date of the most recent as-is appraised value. For our CMBS B-Pieces, LTV is based on the weighted average LTV of the underlying loan pool. 

"Internal Rate of Return": IRR is the annualized effective compounded return rate that accounts for the time-value of money and represents the rate of return on an investment over a holding period expressed as a percentage of the investment. It is the discount rate that makes the net present value of all cash outflows (the costs of investment) equal to the net present value of cash inflows (returns on investment). It is derived from the negative and positive cash flows resulting from or produced by each transaction (or for a transaction involving more than one investment, cash flows resulting from or produced by each of the investments), whether positive, such as investment returns, or negative, such as transaction expenses or other costs of investment, taking into account the dates on which such cash flows occurred or are expected to occur, and compounding interest accordingly. The weighted average underwritten IRR for the investments shown reflects the returns underwritten by our Manager taking into account certain assumptions around leverage up to no more than the maximum approved advance rate, and calculated on a weighted average basis assuming no dispositions, early prepayments or defaults but assuming that extension options are exercised and that the cost of borrowings remains constant over the remaining term. With respect to certain loans included in the weighted average underwritten IRR shown, the calculation assumes certain estimates with respect to the timing and magnitude of the initial and future fundings for the total loan commitment and associated loan repayments, and assumes no defaults. With respect to certain loans included in the weighted average underwritten IRR shown, the calculation assumes the one-month spot USD LIBOR as of the date the loan was originated. There can be no assurance that the actual weighted average IRRs will equal the weighted average underwritten IRRs shown.

"Core Earnings" and "Net Core Earnings": Used by the Company to evaluate the Company's performance excluding the effects of certain transactions and GAAP adjustments the Company believes are not necessarily indicative of the current loan activity and operations. The Company also uses Core Earnings to determine the management and incentive fees it pays to its Manager. Core Earnings and Net Core Earnings are measures that are not prepared in accordance with GAAP. The Company defines Core Earnings as net income (loss) attributable to stockholders or, without duplication, owners of the Company's subsidiaries, computed in accordance with GAAP, including realized losses not otherwise included in GAAP net income (loss) and excluding (i) non-cash

7


equity compensation expense, (ii) the incentive compensation payable to our Manager, (iii) depreciation and amortization, (iv) any unrealized gains or losses or other similar non-cash items that are included in net income for the applicable reporting period, regardless of whether such items are included in other comprehensive income or loss, or in net income, and (v) one-time events pursuant to changes in GAAP and certain material non-cash income or expense items after discussions between our Manager and board of directors (and after approval by a majority of the independent directors). The exclusion of depreciation and amortization from the calculation of Core Earnings only applies to debt investments related to real estate to the extent the Company forecloses upon the property or properties underlying such debt investments. Net Core Earnings is Core Earnings less incentive compensation payable to our Manager.

The Company believes that providing Core Earnings and Net Core Earnings on a supplemental basis to its net income as determined in accordance with GAAP is helpful to stockholders in assessing the overall performance of the Company’s business. Core Earnings and Net Core Earnings should not be considered as a substitute for GAAP net income. The Company cautions readers that its methodology for calculating Core Earnings and Net Core Earnings may differ from the methodologies employed by other REITs to calculate the same or similar supplemental performance measures, and as a result, the Company’s reported Core Earnings and Net Core Earnings may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other REITs.
