REPORTS SECOND QUARTER 2023 RESULTS

New York, NY, July 31, 2023 – Apollo Commercial Real Estate Finance, Inc. (the “Company” or “ARI”) (NYSE:ARI) today reported results for the three and six-month period ended June 30, 2023.

Net loss attributable to common stockholders per diluted share of common stock was ($0.62) for the quarter ended June 30, 2023. Distributable Earnings (a non-GAAP financial measure defined below) and Distributable Earnings prior to net realized loss on investments and realized gain on extinguishment of debt per share of common stock was ($0.11) and $0.46 for the quarter ended June 30, 2023, respectively.

“ARI’s floating rate portfolio continues to benefit from the higher interest rate environment, as the Company had another consistent quarter of distributable earnings, prior to net realized losses on investments, in excess of the common stock dividend,” said Stuart Rothstein, Chief Executive Officer and President of ARI.

ARI issued a detailed presentation of the Company’s quarter and six-month period ended June 30, 2023 results, which can be viewed at www.apollocref.com.

Distributable Earnings

“Distributable Earnings”, a non-GAAP financial measure, is defined as net income available to common stockholders, computed in accordance with GAAP, adjusted for (i) equity-based compensation expense (a portion of which may become cash-based upon final vesting and settlement of awards should the holder elect net share settlement to satisfy income tax withholding), (ii) any unrealized gains or losses or other non-cash items (including depreciation and amortization related to real estate owned) included in net income available to common stockholders, (iii) unrealized income from unconsolidated joint ventures, (iv) foreign currency gains (losses), other than (a) realized gains/(losses) related to interest income, and (b) forward point gains/(losses) realized on the Company’s foreign currency hedges, (v) the non-cash amortization expense related to the reclassification of a portion of the Company’s convertible senior notes (the “Notes”) to stockholders’ equity in accordance with GAAP, and (vi) provision for loan losses.

The weighted-average diluted shares outstanding used for Distributable Earnings per weighted-average diluted share has been adjusted from weighted-average diluted shares under GAAP to exclude shares issued from a potential conversion of the Notes. Consistent with the treatment of other unrealized adjustments to Distributable Earnings, these potentially issuable shares are excluded until a conversion occurs, which the Company believes is a useful presentation for investors.


The Company believes that excluding shares issued in connection with a potential conversion of the Notes from its computation of Distributable Earnings per weighted-average diluted share is useful to investors for various reasons, including the following: (i) conversion of Notes to shares requires both the holder of a Note to elect to convert the Note and for the Company to elect to settle the conversion in the form of shares; (ii) future conversion decisions by Note holders will be based on the Company’s stock price in the future, which is presently not determinable; (iii) the exclusion of shares issued in connection with a potential conversion of the Notes from the computation of Distributable Earnings per weighted-average diluted share is consistent with how the Company treats other unrealized items in its computation of Distributable Earnings per weighted-average diluted share; and (iv) the Company believes that when evaluating its operating performance, investors and potential investors consider the Company’s Distributable Earnings relative to its actual distributions, which are based on shares outstanding and not shares that might be issued in the future.

As a REIT, U.S. federal income tax law generally requires the Company to distribute annually at least 90% of its REIT taxable income, without regard to the deduction for dividends paid and excluding net capital gains, and that the Company pay tax at regular corporate rates to the extent that it annually distributes less than 100% of its net taxable income. Given these requirements and the Company’s belief that dividends are generally one of the principal reasons shareholders invest in a REIT, the Company generally intends over time to pay dividends to its stockholders in an amount equal to its net taxable income, if and to the extent authorized by the Company’s board of directors. Distributable Earnings is a key factor considered by the Company’s board of directors in setting the dividend and as such the Company believes Distributable Earnings is useful to investors.

During the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company recorded in the condensed consolidated statement of operations a realized loss on a subordinate loan secured by an ultra-luxury residential property and a realized loss related to the acquisition of a hotel property through a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure. The realized losses were partially offset by realized gains on extinguishment of debt related to our convertible notes.

The Company believes it is useful to its investors to also present Distributable Earnings prior to realized gains (losses) and impairments on real estate owned and investments to reflect its operating results because (i) the Company’s operating results are primarily comprised of earning interest income on its investments net of borrowing and administrative costs, which comprise the Company’s ongoing operations and (ii) it has been a useful factor related to the Company’s dividend per share because it is one of the considerations when a dividend is determined. The Company believes that its investors use Distributable Earnings and Distributable Earnings prior to realized gains (losses) and impairments on real estate owned and investments, or a comparable supplemental performance measure, to evaluate and compare the performance of the Company and its peers.

A significant limitation associated with Distributable Earnings as a measure of the Company’s financial performance over any period is that it excludes unrealized gains (losses) from investments. In addition, the Company’s presentation of Distributable Earnings may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures of other companies, that use different calculations. As a result, Distributable Earnings should not be considered as a substitute for the Company’s GAAP net income as a measure of its financial performance or any measure of its liquidity under GAAP. Distributable Earnings are reduced for realized losses on loans which include losses that management believes are near certain to be realized.

A reconciliation of Distributable Earnings, and Distributable Earnings prior to realized gains (losses) and impairments on real estate owned and investments, to GAAP net income (loss) available to common stockholders is included in the detailed presentation of the Company’s three and six months ended June 30, 2023 results, which can be viewed at www.apollocref.com.

Footnotes 1. Distributable Earnings is a non-GAAP financial measure that we define as net income available to common stockholders, computed in accordance with GAAP, adjusted for (i) equity-based compensation expense (a portion of which may become cash-based upon final vesting and settlement of awards should the holder elect net share settlement to satisfy income tax withholding), (ii) any unrealized gains or losses or other non-cash items (including depreciation and amortization on real estate owned) included in net income available to common stockholders, (iii) unrealized income from unconsolidated joint ventures, (iv) foreign currency gains (losses), other than (a) realized gains/(losses) related to interest income, and (b) forward point gains/(losses) realized on our foreign currency hedges, (v) the non-cash amortization expense related to the reclassification of a portion of our convertible senior notes to stockholders’ equity in accordance with GAAP, and (vi) provision for loan losses and impairments. Please see page 20 for a reconciliation of GAAP net income to Distributable Earnings. 2. Distributable Earnings prior to net realized loss on investments and realized gain on extinguishment of debt per share to dividend per share for the quarter ended June 30, 2023. We believe it is useful to our investors to present Distributable Earnings prior to net realized losses on investments and realized gain on extinguishment of debt to reflect our operating results because (i) our operating results are primarily comprised of earning interest income on our investments net of borrowing and administrative costs, which comprise our ongoing operations and (ii) it has been a useful factor related to our dividend per share because it is one of the considerations when a dividend is determined. We believe that our investors use Distributable Earnings and Distributable Earnings prior to net realized loss on investments and realized gain on extinguishment of debt, or a comparable supplemental performance measure, to evaluate and compare the performance of our company and our peers. 3. Represents loan and real estate owned assets with no asset-specific financing. Pursuant to our Term Loan B agreement, we are required to maintain a ratio of total unencumbered assets to total pari-passu indebtedness of at least 2.50:1. Unencumbered assets are comprised of unencumbered loan assets, cash, other assets and residual equity interests in entities where we hold assets financed under repurchase obligations. 4. Reflects closing share price on July 28, 2023. 5. Quarterly add-on fundings represent fundings committed prior to the quarter ended June 30, 2023. 6. Weighted Average Unlevered All-in Yield on the loan portfolio is based on the applicable benchmark rates as of period end on the floating rate loans and includes accrual of origination, extension, and exit fees. For non-US deals, yield excludes incremental forward points impact from currency hedging. 7. Other includes changes in General CECL Allowance, cost recovery interests, and the accretion of loan costs and fees. 8. Amounts and percentages may not foot due to rounding. 9. Book value per share of common stock is common stockholders’ equity divided by shares of common stock outstanding. 10. Represents total debt, less cash and loan proceeds held by servicer divided by total stockholders' equity, adjusted to add back the General CECL Allowance in line with our covenants. 11. Fixed charge coverage is EBITDA divided by interest expense and preferred stock dividends. 12. Based on loan amortized cost. 13. Includes one subordinate risk retention interest in a securitization vehicle. 14. Gross of $32 million of General CECL Allowance. 15. Assumes exercise of all extension options. There is no assurance that all or any extension options will be exercised. 16. Future funding dates and amounts are based upon the Manager’s estimates, which are derived from the best information available to the Manager at the time. There is no assurance that the payments will occur in accordance with these estimates or at all, which could affect our operating results. 17. Excludes risk-rated 5 loans. 18. Any such hypothetical impact on interest rates on our variable rate borrowings does not consider the effect of any change in overall economic activity that could occur in a rising interest rate environment. Further, in the event of a change in interest rates of that magnitude, we may take actions to further mitigate our exposure to such a change. However, due to the uncertainty of the specific actions that would be taken and their possible effects, this analysis assumes no changes in our financial structure. There is no assurance that there will be no changes in our financial structure. The analysis incorporates movements in USD and GBP benchmark rates only. 19. Amortized cost for these loans is net of the recorded Specific CECL Allowances. 20. Loans are secured by the same property. Private and Confidential 21
