1. ORGANIZATION

References herein to “Blackstone Mortgage Trust,” “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our” refer to Blackstone Mortgage Trust, Inc. and its subsidiaries unless the context specifically requires otherwise.

Blackstone Mortgage Trust is a real estate finance company that originates senior loans collateralized by commercial real estate in North America, Europe, and Australia. Our investment objective is to preserve and protect shareholder capital while producing attractive risk-adjusted returns primarily through dividends generated from current income from our loan portfolio. We are externally managed by BXMT Advisors L.L.C., or our Manager, a subsidiary of The Blackstone Group Inc., or Blackstone, and are a real estate investment trust, or REIT, traded on the New York Stock Exchange, or NYSE, under the symbol “BXMT.” Our principal executive offices are located at 345 Park Avenue, 42

Floor, New York, New York 10154. We were incorporated in Maryland in 1998, when we reorganized from a California common law business trust into a Maryland corporation.

We conduct our operations as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes. We generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income taxes on our taxable income to the extent that we annually distribute all of our net taxable income to stockholders and maintain our qualification as a REIT. We also operate our business in a manner that permits us to maintain an exclusion from registration under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. We are organized as a holding company and conduct our business primarily through our various subsidiaries.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, or GAAP, for interim financial information and the instructions to Form

10-Q

and Rule

10-01

of Regulation

S-X.

The consolidated financial statements, including the notes thereto, are unaudited and exclude some of the disclosures required in audited financial statements. We believe we have made all necessary adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring items, so that the consolidated financial statements are presented fairly and that estimates made in preparing our consolidated financial statements are reasonable and prudent. 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. The accompanying unaudited consolidated interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form

10-K

for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include, on a consolidated basis, our accounts, the accounts of our wholly-owned subsidiaries, majority-owned subsidiaries, and variable interest entities, or VIEs, of which we are the primary beneficiary. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Certain reclassifications have been made in the presentation of the prior period secured debt agreements in Note 5 to conform to the current period presentation.

Principles of Consolidation

We consolidate all entities that we control through either majority ownership or voting rights. In addition, we consolidate all VIEs of which we are considered the primary beneficiary. VIEs are defined as entities in which equity investors (i) do not have the characteristics of a controlling financial interest and/or (ii) do not have sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support from other parties. The entity that consolidates a VIE is known as its primary beneficiary and is generally the entity with (i) the power to direct the activities that most significantly affect the VIE’s economic performance and (ii) the right to receive benefits from the VIE or the obligation to absorb losses of the VIE that could be significant to the VIE.

In the third quarter of 2018, we contributed a loan to a single asset securitization vehicle, or the 2018 Single Asset Securitization, which is a VIE, and invested in the related subordinate risk retention position. We are not the primary beneficiary of the VIE because we do not have the power to direct the activities that most significantly affect the VIE’s economic performance and, therefore, do not consolidate the 2018 Single Asset Securitization on our balance sheet. We have classified the subordinate risk retention position as a

held-to-maturity

debt security that is included in other assets on our consolidated balance sheets. Refer to Note 16 for additional discussion of our VIEs.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)

(Unaudited)

In April 2017, we entered into a joint venture, or our Multifamily Joint Venture, with Walker & Dunlop Inc. to originate, hold, and finance multifamily bridge loans. Pursuant to the terms of the agreements governing the joint venture, Walker & Dunlop contributed 15% of the venture’s equity capital and we contributed 85%. We consolidate the Multifamily Joint Venture as we have a controlling financial interest. The

non-controlling

interests included on our consolidated balance sheets represent the equity interests in our Multifamily Joint Venture that are owned by Walker & Dunlop. A portion of our Multifamily Joint Venture’s consolidated equity and results of operations are allocated to these

non-controlling

interests based on Walker & Dunlop’s pro rata ownership of our Multifamily Joint Venture.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results may ultimately differ from those estimates.

Revenue Recognition

Interest income from our loans receivable portfolio and debt securities is recognized over the life of each investment using the effective interest method and is recorded on the accrual basis. Recognition of fees, premiums, and discounts associated with these investments is deferred and recorded over the term of the loan or debt security as an adjustment to yield.

Income accrual is generally suspended for loans at the earlier of the date at which payments become 90 days past due or when, in the opinion of our Manager, recovery of income and principal becomes doubtful.

Income is then recorded on the basis of cash received until accrual is resumed when the loan becomes contractually current and performance is demonstrated to be resumed. In addition, for loans we originate, the related origination expenses are deferred and recognized as a component of interest income, however expenses related to loans we acquire are included in general and administrative expenses as incurred.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents represent cash held in banks and liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less.

We may have bank balances in excess of federally insured amounts; however, we deposit our cash and cash equivalents with high credit-quality institutions to minimize credit risk exposure. We have not experienced, and do not expect, any losses on our cash or cash equivalents.

During the second quarter of 2018, the letter of credit related to our restricted cash balance was cancelled and the cash was transferred out of our segregated bank account. As of both June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, we had

restricted cash on our consolidated balance sheets.

Through

our subsidiaries, we have oversight of certain servicing accounts held with third-party servicers, or Servicing Accounts, which relate to borrower escrows and other cash balances aggregating $

360.1

million and $

320.0

million as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. This cash is maintained in segregated bank accounts, and these amounts are not included in the assets and liabilities presented in our consolidated balance sheets. Cash in these Servicing Accounts will be transferred by the respective third-party servicer to the borrower or us under the terms of the applicable loan agreement upon occurrence of certain future events. We do not generate any revenue or incur any expenses as a result of these Servicing Accounts.

Loans Receivable and Provision for Loan Losses

We originate and purchase commercial real estate debt and related instruments generally to be held as long-term investments at amortized cost. We are required to periodically evaluate each of these loans for possible impairment. Impairment is indicated when it is deemed probable that we will not be able to collect all amounts due to us pursuant to the contractual terms of the loan. If a loan is determined to be impaired, we write down the loan through a charge to the provision for loan losses. Impairment of these loans, which are collateral dependent, is measured by comparing the estimated fair value of the underlying collateral, less costs to sell, to the book value of the respective loan. These valuations require significant judgments, which include assumptions regarding capitalization rates, leasing, creditworthiness of major tenants, occupancy rates, availability of financing, exit plan, loan sponsorship, actions of other lenders, and other factors deemed necessary by our Manager. Actual losses, if any, could ultimately differ from these estimates.

Our Manager performs a quarterly review of our portfolio of loans. In conjunction with this review, our Manager assesses the risk factors of each loan, and assigns it a risk rating based on a variety of factors, including, without limitation, loan-to-value ratio, or LTV, debt yield, property type, geographic and local market dynamics, physical condition, cash flow volatility, leasing and tenant profile, loan structure and exit plan, and project sponsorship. Based on a 5-point scale, our loans are rated “1” through “5,” from less risk to greater risk, which ratings are defined as follows:

		1 -	Very Low Risk

		2 -	Low Risk

		3 -	Medium Risk

		4 -	High Risk/Potential for Loss: A loan that has a risk of realizing a principal loss.

		5 -	Impaired/Loss Likely: A loan that has a very high risk of realizing a principal loss or has otherwise incurred a principal loss.

Debt Securities

Held-to-Maturity

We classify our debt securities as

held-to-maturity,

as we have the intent and ability to hold these securities until maturity. We include our debt securities in other assets on our consolidated balance sheets at amortized cost.

If, based on current information and events, there is an adverse change in cash flows expected to be collected from the cash flows previously projected for one of our debt securities, an other-than-temporary impairment is deemed to have occurred. A change in expected cash flows is considered adverse if the present value of the revised cash flows (taking into consideration both the timing and amount of cash flows expected to be collected), discounted using the debt security’s current yield, is less than the present value of the previously estimated remaining cash flows. If an other-than-temporary impairment is considered to have occurred, the debt security is written down to fair value. The total other-than-temporary impairment is bifurcated into (i) the amount related to expected credit losses, and (ii) the amount related to fair value adjustments in excess of expected credit losses. The other-than-temporary impairment related to expected credit losses is calculated by comparing the amortized cost basis of the security to the present value of cash flows expected to be collected, discounted at the security’s current yield, and is recognized in earnings in the consolidated statement of operations. The remaining other-than-temporary impairment that is

related to expected credit losses is recognized in other comprehensive income (loss). A portion of other-than-temporary impairments recognized through earnings is accreted back to the amortized cost basis of the security through interest income, while amounts recognized through other comprehensive income (loss) are amortized over the life of the security with no impact on earnings.

Derivative Financial Instruments

We classify all derivative financial instruments as either other assets or other liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets at fair value.

On the date we enter into a derivative contract, we designate each contract as (i) a hedge of a net investment in a foreign operation, or net investment hedge, (ii) a hedge of a forecasted transaction or of the variability of cash flows to be received or paid related to a recognized asset or liability, or cash flow hedge, (iii) a hedge of a recognized asset or liability, or fair value hedge, or (iv) a derivative instrument not to be designated as a hedging derivative, or

non-designated

hedge. For all derivatives other than those designated as

non-designated

hedges, we formally document our hedge relationships and designation at the contract’s inception. This documentation includes the identification of the hedging instruments and the hedged items, its risk management objectives, strategy for undertaking the hedge transaction and our evaluation of the effectiveness of its hedged transaction.

On a quarterly basis, we also formally assess whether the derivative we designated in each hedging relationship is expected to be, and has been, highly effective in offsetting changes in the value or cash flows of the hedged items. If it is determined that a derivative is not highly effective at hedging the designated exposure, hedge accounting is discontinued and the changes in fair value of the instrument are included in net income prospectively. Changes in the fair value of our derivative instruments that qualify as hedges are reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) on our consolidated financial statements. Deferred gains and losses are reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and into net income in the same period or periods during which

(Unaudited)

the hedged transaction affects earnings, and are presented in the same line item as the earnings effect of the hedged item. For cash flow hedges, this is typically when the periodic swap settlements are made, while for net investment hedges, this occurs when the hedged item is sold or substantially liquidated. To the extent a derivative does not qualify for hedge accounting and is deemed a non-designated hedge, the changes in its fair value are included in net income concurrently.

Secured Debt Agreements

Where applicable, we record investments financed with repurchase agreements as separate assets and the related borrowings under any repurchase agreements are recorded as separate liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets. Interest income earned on the investments and interest expense incurred on the repurchase agreements are reported separately on our consolidated statements of operations.

Senior Loan Participations

In certain instances, we finance our loans through the

non-recourse

syndication of a senior loan interest to a third-party. Depending on the particular structure of the syndication, the senior loan interest may remain on our GAAP balance sheet or, in other cases, the sale will be recognized and the senior loan interest will no longer be included in our consolidated financial statements. When these sales are not recognized under GAAP we reflect the transaction by recording a loan participations sold liability on our consolidated balance sheet, however this gross presentation does not impact stockholders’ equity or net income. When the sales are recognized, our balance sheet only includes our remaining subordinate loan and not the

non-consolidated

senior interest we sold.

Secured Term Loan

We record our secured term loans as liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets. Where applicable, any issue discount or transaction expenses are deferred and amortized through the maturity date of the secured term loan as additional non-cash interest expense.

Convertible Notes

The “Debt with Conversion and Other Options” Topic of the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, Accounting Standards Codification, or ASC, requires the liability and equity components of convertible debt instruments that may be settled in cash upon conversion, including partial cash settlement, to be separately accounted for in a manner that reflects the issuer’s nonconvertible debt borrowing rate. The initial proceeds from the sale of convertible notes are allocated between a liability component and an equity component in a manner that reflects interest expense at the rate of similar nonconvertible debt that could have been issued at such time. The equity component represents the excess initial proceeds received over the fair value of the liability component of the notes as of the date of issuance. We measured the estimated fair value of the debt component of our convertible notes as of the respective issuance dates based on our nonconvertible debt borrowing rate. The equity component of each series of our convertible notes is reflected within additional

paid-in

capital on our consolidated balance sheet, and the resulting issue discount is amortized over the period during which such convertible notes are expected to be outstanding (through the maturity date) as additional

non-cash

interest expense. The additional

non-cash

interest expense attributable to such convertible notes will increase in subsequent periods through the maturity date as the notes accrete to their par value over the same period.

Deferred Financing Costs

The deferred financing costs that are included as a reduction in the net book value of the related liability on our consolidated balance sheets include issuance and other costs related to our debt obligations. These costs are amortized as interest expense using the effective interest method over the life of the related obligations.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” Topic of the FASB, or ASC 820, defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and requires certain disclosures about fair value measurements under GAAP. Specifically, this guidance defines fair value based on exit price, or the price that would be received upon the sale of an asset or the transfer of a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.

ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes and ranks the level of market price observability used in measuring financial instruments. Market price observability is affected by a number of factors, including the type

Table of Contents

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)

(Unaudited)

of financial instrument, the characteristics specific to the financial instrument, and the state of the marketplace, including the existence and transparency of transactions between market participants. Financial instruments with readily available quoted prices in active markets generally will have a higher degree of market price observability and a lesser degree of judgment used in measuring fair value.

Financial instruments measured and reported at fair value are classified and disclosed based on the observability of inputs used in the determination, as follows:


•		Level 1: Generally includes only unadjusted quoted prices that are available in active markets for identical financial instruments as of the reporting date.

•		Level 2: Pricing inputs include quoted prices in active markets for similar instruments, quoted prices in less active or inactive markets for identical or similar instruments where multiple price quotes can be obtained, and other observable inputs, such as interest rates, yield curves, credit risks, and default rates.

•		Level 3: Pricing inputs are unobservable for the financial instruments and include situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the financial instrument. These inputs require significant judgment or estimation by management of third-parties when determining fair value and generally represent anything that does not meet the criteria of Levels 1 and 2.

The estimated value of each asset reported at fair value using Level 3 inputs is determined by an internal committee composed of members of senior management of our Manager, including our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, and other senior officers.

Certain of our other assets are reported at fair value either (i) on a recurring basis, as of each

quarter-end,

or (ii) on a nonrecurring basis, as a result of impairment or other events. Our assets that are recorded at fair value are discussed further in Note 15. We generally value our assets recorded at fair value by either (i) discounting expected cash flows based on assumptions regarding the collection of principal and interest and estimated market rates, or (ii) obtaining assessments from third-party dealers. For collateral-dependent loans that are identified as impaired, we measure impairment by comparing our Manager’s estimation of the fair value of the underlying collateral, less costs to sell, to the book value of the respective loan. These valuations may require significant judgments, which include assumptions regarding capitalization rates, leasing, creditworthiness of major tenants, occupancy rates, availability of financing, exit plan, loan sponsorship, actions of other lenders, and other factors deemed necessary by our Manager.

We are also required by GAAP to disclose fair value information about financial instruments, which are not otherwise reported at fair value in our consolidated balance sheet, to the extent it is practicable to estimate a fair value for those instruments. These disclosure requirements exclude certain financial instruments and all

non-financial

instruments.

The following methods and assumptions are used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments, for which it is practicable to estimate that value:


•		Cash and cash equivalents: The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents approximates fair value.

•		Loans receivable, net: The fair values of these loans were estimated by our Manager based on a discounted cash flow methodology, taking into consideration various factors including capitalization rates, discount rates, leasing, occupancy rates, availability and cost of financing, exit plan, sponsorship, actions of other lenders, and indications of market value from other market participants.

•		Debt securities held-to-maturity: The fair value of these instruments was estimated by utilizing third-party pricing service providers. In determining the value of a particular investment, pricing service providers may use broker-dealer quotations, reported trades, or valuation estimates from their internal pricing models to determine the reported price.

•		Derivative financial instruments: The fair value of our foreign currency and interest rate contracts was estimated using advice from a third-party derivative specialist, based on contractual cash flows and observable inputs comprising foreign currency rates and credit spreads.

•		Secured debt agreements, net: The fair value of these instruments was estimated based on the rate at which a similar credit facility would currently be priced.

Table of Contents

•		Loan participations sold, net: The fair value of these instruments was estimated based on the value of the related loan receivable asset.

•		Securitized debt obligations, net: The fair value of these instruments was estimated by utilizing third-party pricing service providers. In determining the value of a particular investment, pricing service providers may use broker-dealer quotations, reported trades, or valuation estimates from their internal pricing models to determine the reported price.

•		Secured term loan, net: The fair value of these instruments was estimated by utilizing third-party pricing service providers. In determining the value of a particular investment, pricing service providers may use broker-dealer quotations, reported trades, or valuation estimates from their internal pricing models to determine the reported price.

•		Convertible notes, net: Each series of the convertible notes is actively traded and their fair values were obtained using quoted market prices.

Income Taxes

Our financial results generally do not reflect provisions for current or deferred income taxes on our REIT taxable income. We believe that we operate in a manner that will continue to allow us to be taxed as a REIT and, as a result, we generally do not expect to pay substantial corporate level taxes other than those payable by our taxable REIT subsidiaries. If we were to fail to meet these requirements, we may be subject to federal, state, and local income tax on current and past income, and penalties. Refer to Note 13 for additional information.

Stock-Based Compensation

Our stock-based compensation consists of awards issued to our Manager and certain individuals employed by an affiliate of our Manager that vest over the life of the awards, as well as deferred stock units issued to certain members of our board of directors. Stock-based compensation expense is recognized for these awards in net income on a variable basis over the applicable vesting period of the awards, based on the value of our class A common stock. Refer to Note 14 for additional information.

Earnings per Share

Basic earnings per share, or Basic EPS, is computed in accordance with the

two-class

method and is based on the net earnings allocable to our class A common stock, including restricted class A common stock and deferred stock units, divided by the weighted-average number of shares of our class A common stock, including restricted class A common stock and deferred stock units outstanding during the period. Our restricted class A common stock is considered a participating security, as defined by GAAP, and has been included in our Basic EPS under the

two-class

method as these restricted shares have the same rights as our other shares of class A common stock, including participating in any gains or losses.

Diluted earnings per share, or Diluted EPS, is determined using the treasury stock method, and is based on the net earnings allocable to our class A common stock, including restricted class A common stock and deferred stock units, divided by the weighted-average number of shares of our class A common stock, including restricted class A common stock and deferred stock units. Refer to Note 11 for additional discussion of earnings per share.

Foreign Currency

In the normal course of business, we enter into transactions not denominated in United States, or U.S., dollars. Foreign exchange gains and losses arising on such transactions are recorded as a gain or loss in our consolidated statements of operations. In addition, we consolidate entities that have a

non-U.S.

dollar functional currency.

Non-U.S.

dollar denominated assets and liabilities are translated to U.S. dollars at the exchange rate prevailing at the reporting date and income, expenses, gains, and losses are translated at the average exchange rate over the applicable period. Cumulative translation adjustments arising from the translation of

non-U.S.

dollar denominated subsidiaries are recorded in other comprehensive income (loss).

Underwriting Commissions and Offering Costs

Underwriting commissions and offering costs incurred in connection with common stock offerings are reflected as a reduction of additional

paid-in

capital. Costs incurred that are not directly associated with the completion of a common stock offering are expensed when incurred.

that relate to ASU

2016-13

clarify specific issues related to the implementation of the current expected credit loss model, which are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 and are to be adopted through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of January 1, 2020. The amendments in ASU

2019-04

that relate to ASU

2017-12

primarily update guidance related to fair value hedges and do not have an impact on our consolidated financial statements. The amendments in ASU

2019-04

that relate to ASU

2016-01

primarily update guidance related to equity securities and do not have an impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU

2016-13.

ASU

2016-13

significantly changes how entities will measure credit losses for most financial assets and certain other instruments that are not measured at fair value through net income. ASU

2016-13

will replace the “incurred loss” model under existing guidance with an “expected loss” model for instruments measured at amortized cost, and require entities to record allowances for

available-for-sale

debt securities rather than reduce the carrying amount, as they do today under the other-than-temporary impairment model. It also simplifies the accounting model for purchased credit-impaired debt securities and loans. ASU

2016-13

is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 and is to be adopted through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of January 1, 2020. While we are currently evaluating the impact ASU

2016-13

will have on our consolidated financial statements, we expect that the adoption will result in an increased amount of provisions for potential loan losses as well as the recognition of such provisions earlier in the lending cycle. We currently do

t have any provision for loan losses in our consolidated financial statements.

Loan Risk Ratings

As further described in Note 2, our Manager evaluates our loan portfolio on a quarterly basis. In conjunction with our quarterly loan portfolio review, our Manager assesses the risk factors of each loan, and assigns a risk rating based on several factors. Factors considered in the assessment include, but are not limited to, risk of loss, current LTV, debt yield, collateral performance, structure, exit plan, and sponsorship. Loans are rated “1” (less risk) through “5” (greater risk), which ratings are defined in Note 2.

(1)		These floating rate loans and related liabilities are indexed to the various benchmark rates relevant in each arrangement in terms of currency and payment frequency. Therefore the net exposure to each benchmark rate is in direct proportion to our net assets indexed to that rate. In addition to cash coupon, yield/cost includes the amortization of deferred origination fees / financing costs.
(2)		Other than amounts guaranteed on an asset-by-asset basis, borrowings under our asset-specific financings are non-recourse to us.
(3)		The weighted-average term is determined based on the maximum maturity of the corresponding loans, assuming all extension options are exercised by the borrower. Each of our asset-specific financings is term-matched to the corresponding collateral loans.

The weighted-average outstanding balance of our asset-specific financings was $106.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and $50.4 million for the six months ended December 31, 2018.

Revolving Credit Agreement

We have a $250.0 million full recourse secured revolving credit agreement with Barclays that is designed to finance first mortgage originations for up to nine months as a bridge to term financing or syndication. Advances under the agreement are subject to availability under a specified borrowing base and accrue interest at a per annum pricing rate equal to the sum of (i) an applicable base rate or Eurodollar rate and (ii) an applicable margin, in each case, dependent on the applicable type of loan collateral. The maturity date of the facility is April 4, 2020.

During the six months ended June 30, 2019, the weighted-average outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit agreement was $28.8 million and we recorded interest expense of $1.6 million, including $522,000 of amortization of deferred fees and expenses. As of June 30, 2019, we had

outstanding borrowings under the agreement.

During the six months ended December 31, 2018, the weighted-average outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit agreement was $31.7 million and we recorded interest expense of $1.7 million, including $551,000 of amortization of deferred fees and expenses. As of December 31, 2018, we had $43.8 million of borrowings outstanding under the agreement.

Debt Covenants

Each of the guarantees related to our secured debt agreements contain the following uniform financial covenants: (i) our ratio of earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization, or EBITDA, to fixed charges, as defined in the agreements, shall be not less than

1.4

1.0

; (ii) our tangible net worth, as defined in the agreements, shall not be less than $2.8 billion as of each measurement date plus 75% of the net cash proceeds of future equity issuances subsequent to June 30, 2019; (iii) cash liquidity shall not be less than the greater of (x) $10.0 million or (y) 5% of our recourse indebtedness; and (iv) our indebtedness shall not exceed 83.33% of our total assets. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, we were in compliance with these covenants.

Refer to Note 8 for information regarding financial covenants contained in the agreements governing our senior secured term loan facility.

6. LOAN PARTICIPATIONS SOLD, NET

The financing of a loan by the

non-recourse

sale of a senior interest in the loan through a participation agreement generally does not qualify as a sale under GAAP. Therefore, in the instance of such sales, we present the whole loan as an asset and the loan participation sold as a liability on our consolidated balance sheet until the loan is repaid. The obligation to pay principal and interest on these liabilities is generally based on the performance of the related loan obligation. The gross presentation of loan participations sold does not impact stockholders’ equity or net income.

We did not have any loan participations sold as of June 30, 2019. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, we recorded $1.6 million and $3.2 million, respectively, of interest expense related to our loan participations sold. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, we recorded $2.0 million and $3.5 million, respectively, of interest expense related to our loan participations sold.

We may not redeem the Convertible Notes prior to maturity. The last reported sale price of our class A common stock of $35.58 on June 28, 2019, the last trading day in the quarter ended June 30, 2019, was less than the per share conversion price of the May 2017 and March 2018 convertible notes. We have the intent and ability to settle each series of the Convertible Notes in cash and, as a result, the Convertible Notes did not have any impact on our diluted earnings per share.

Upon our issuance of the May 2017 convertible notes, we recorded a $979,000 discount based on the implied value of the conversion option and an assumed effective interest rate of 4.57%, as well as $8.4 million of issue discount and issuance costs. Including the amortization of the discount and issuance costs, our total cost of the May 2017 convertible notes issuance is 4.91% per annum.

Upon our issuance of the March 2018 convertible notes, we recorded a $1.5 million discount based on the implied value of the conversion option and an assumed effective interest rate of 5.25%, as well as $5.2 million of issue discount and issuance costs. Including the amortization of the discount and issuance costs, our total cost of the March 2018 convertible notes issuance is 5.49% per annum.

10. DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The sole objective of our use of derivative financial instruments is to minimize the risks and/or costs associated with our investments and/or financing transactions. These derivatives may or may not qualify as net investment, cash flow, or fair value hedges under the hedge accounting requirements of ASC 815 – “Derivatives and Hedging.” Derivatives not designated as hedges are not speculative and are used to manage our exposure to interest rate movements and other identified risks. Refer to Note 2 for additional discussion of the accounting for designated and non-designated hedges.

The use of derivative financial instruments involves certain risks, including the risk that the counterparties to these contractual arrangements do not perform as agreed. To mitigate this risk, we only enter into derivative financial instruments with counterparties that have appropriate credit ratings and are major financial institutions with which we and our affiliates may also have other financial relationships.

Net Investment Hedges of Foreign Currency Risk

Certain of our international investments expose us to fluctuations in foreign interest rates and currency exchange rates. These fluctuations may impact the value of our cash receipts and payments in terms of our functional currency, the U.S. dollar. We use foreign currency forward contracts to protect the value or fix the amount of certain investments or cash flows in terms of the U.S. dollar.

Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk

Certain of our transactions expose us to interest rate risks, which include a fixed versus floating rate mismatch between our assets and liabilities. We use derivative financial instruments, which include interest rate caps and swaps, and may also include interest rate options, floors, and other interest rate derivative contracts, to hedge interest rate risk.

The following tables detail our outstanding interest rate derivatives that were designated as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk (notional amount in thousands):

Amounts reported in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) related to derivatives will be reclassified to interest expense as interest payments are made on our floating rate debt. During the twelve months following June 30, 2019, we estimate that an additional $82,000 will be reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) as an increase to interest income.

Non-designated

Hedges

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, we recorded losses of $516,000 and gains of $144,000, respectively, related to

non-designated

hedges that were reported as a component of interest expense in our consolidated financial statements. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, we recorded losses of $69,000 and gains of $146,000, respectively, related to such non-designated hedges.

Credit-Risk Related Contingent Features

We have entered into agreements with certain of our derivative counterparties that contain provisions where if we were to default on any of our indebtedness, including default where repayment of the indebtedness has not been accelerated by the lender, we may also be declared in default on our derivative obligations. In addition, certain of our agreements with our derivative counterparties require that we post collateral to secure net liability positions. As of June 30, 2019, we were in a net asset position with one of our derivative counterparties and in a net liability position with our other derivative counterparty and did not have any collateral posted under these derivative contracts. As of December 31, 2018, we were in a net asset position with each such derivative counterparty and did not have any collateral posted under these derivative contracts.

11. EQUITY

Stock and Stock Equivalents

Authorized Capital

As of June 30, 2019, we had the authority to issue up to 300,000,000 shares of stock, consisting of 200,000,000 shares of class A common stock and 100,000,000 shares of preferred stock. Subject to applicable NYSE listing requirements, our board of directors is authorized to cause us to issue additional shares of authorized stock without stockholder approval. In addition, to the extent not issued, currently authorized stock may be reclassified between class A common stock and preferred stock. We did not have any shares of preferred stock issued and outstanding as of June 30, 2019.

Class A Common Stock and Deferred Stock Units

Holders of shares of our class A common stock are entitled to vote on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders and are entitled to receive such dividends as may be authorized by our board of directors and declared by us, in all cases subject to the rights of the holders of shares of outstanding preferred stock, if any.

Dividend Reinvestment and Direct Stock Purchase Plan

March 25, 2014

, we adopted a dividend reinvestment and direct stock purchase plan, under which we registered and reserved for issuance, in the aggregate, 10,000,000 shares of class A common stock. Under the dividend reinvestment component of this plan, our class A common stockholders can designate all or a portion of their cash dividends to be reinvested in additional shares of class A common stock. The direct stock purchase component allows stockholders and new investors, subject to our approval, to purchase shares of class A common stock directly from us. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, we issued 272 shares and 553 shares, respectively, of class A common stock under the dividend reinvestment component of the plan compared to 421 shares and 876 shares

, respectively,

for the same periods in 2018. As of June 30, 2019, a total of

9,994,685

shares of class A common stock remained available for issuance under the dividend reinvestment and direct stock purchase plan.

At the Market Stock Offering Program

On November 14, 2018, we entered into six equity distribution agreements, or ATM Agreements, pursuant to which we may sell, from time to time, up to an aggregate sales price of $500.0 million of our class A common stock. Sales of class A common stock made pursuant to our ATM Agreements may be made in negotiated transactions or transactions that are deemed to be “at the market” offerings as defined in Rule 415 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Actual sales will depend on a variety of factors including market conditions, the trading price of our class A common stock, our capital needs, and our determination of the appropriate sources of funding to meet such

(Unaudited)

needs. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, we issued and sold 1,909,628 shares of class A common stock under ATM Agreements, generating net proceeds totaling $65.4 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2018, we issued and sold 3,251,449 shares of class A common stock under ATM Agreements, with net proceeds totaling $102.5 million. As of June 30, 2019, shares of our class A common stock with an aggregate sales price of $363.8 million remained available for issuance under our ATM Agreements.

Dividends

We generally intend to distribute substantially all of our taxable income, which does not necessarily equal net income as calculated in accordance with GAAP, to our stockholders each year to comply with the REIT provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the Internal Revenue Code. Our

dividend policy remains subject to revision at the discretion of our board of directors. All distributions will be made at the discretion of our board of directors and will depend upon our taxable income, our financial condition, our maintenance of REIT status, applicable law, and other factors as our board of directors deems relevant.

June 14, 2019

, we declared a dividend of $

0.62

per share, or $83.3 million, that was paid on

July 15, 2019

, to stockholders of record as of

June 28, 2019

Earnings Per Share

We calculate our basic and diluted earnings per share using the

two-class

method for all periods presented as the unvested shares of our restricted class A common stock qualify as participating securities, as defined by GAAP. These restricted shares have the same rights as our other shares of class A common stock, including participating in any dividends, and therefore have been included in our basic and diluted net income per share calculation. Our Convertible Notes are excluded from dilutive earnings per share as we have the intent and ability to settle these instruments in cash.

The following table sets forth the calculation of basic and diluted net income per share of class A common stock based on the weighted-average of both restricted and unrestricted class A common stock outstanding ($ in thousands, except per share data):

Non-Controlling

Interests

The

non-controlling

interests included on our consolidated balance sheets represent the equity interests in our Multifamily Joint Venture that are not owned by us. A portion of our Multifamily Joint Venture’s consolidated equity and results of operations are allocated to these

non-controlling

interests based on their pro rata ownership of our Multifamily Joint Venture. As of June 30, 2019, our Multifamily Joint Venture’s total equity was $193.7 million, of which $164.6 million was owned by us, and $29.1 million was allocated to

non-controlling

interests. As of December 31, 2018, our Multifamily Joint Venture’s total equity was $69.9 million, of which $59.4 million was owned by us, and $10.5 million was allocated to

non-controlling

interests.

12. OTHER EXPENSES

Our other expenses consist of the management and incentive fees we pay to our Manager and our general and administrative expenses.

Management and Incentive Fees

Pursuant to a management agreement between our Manager and us, or our Management Agreement, our Manager earns a base management fee in an amount equal to 1.50% per annum multiplied by our outstanding equity balance, as defined in the Management

greement. In addition, our

Manager is entitled to an incentive fee in an amount equal to the product of (i) 20% and (ii) the excess of (a) our Core Earnings (as defined in our Management

Agreement) for the previous

12-month

period over (b) an amount equal to 7.00% per annum multiplied by our outstanding Equity, provided that our Core Earnings over the prior three-year period is greater than zero. Core Earnings, as defined in our Management Agreement, is generally equal to our net income (loss) prepared in accordance with GAAP, excluding (i) certain

non-cash

items (ii) the net income (loss) related to our legacy portfolio and (iii) incentive management fees.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, we incurred $13.3 million and $26.4 million, respectively, of management fees payable to our Manager, compared to $11.1 million and $22.2 million during the same periods in 2018. In addition, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, we incurred $7.7 million and $14.4 million, respectively, of incentive fees payable to our Manager, compared to $11.3 million and $15.7 million during the same periods in 2018.

As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 we had accrued management and incentive fees payable to our Manager of $21.0 million and $18.6 million, respectively.

(1)			During the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, we recognized an aggregate $164,000 and $333,000, respectively, of expenses related to our Multifamily Joint Venture. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, we recognized an aggregate $124,000 and $225,000, respectively, of expenses related to our Multifamily Joint Venture.

13. INCOME TAXES

We have elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code for U.S. federal income tax purposes. We generally must distribute annually at least 90% of our net taxable income, subject to certain adjustments and excluding any net capital gain, in order for U.S. federal income tax not to apply to our earnings that we distribute. To the extent that we satisfy this distribution requirement, but distribute less than 100% of our net taxable income, we will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on our undistributed taxable income. In addition, we will be subject to a 4% nondeductible excise tax if the actual amount that we pay out to our stockholders in a calendar year is less than a minimum amount specified under U.S. federal tax laws.

Our qualification as a REIT also depends on our ability to meet various other requirements imposed by the Internal Revenue Code, which relate to organizational structure, diversity of stock ownership, and certain restrictions with regard to the nature of our assets and the sources of our income. Even if we qualify as a REIT, we may be subject to certain U.S. federal income and excise taxes and state and local taxes on our income and assets. If we fail to maintain our qualification as a REIT for any taxable year, we may be subject to material penalties as well as federal, state, and local income tax on our taxable income at regular corporate rates and we would not be able to qualify as a REIT for the subsequent four full taxable years. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, we were in compliance with all REIT requirements.

Securitization transactions could result in the creation of taxable mortgage pools for federal income tax purposes. As a REIT, so long as we own 100% of the equity interests in a taxable mortgage pool, we generally would not be adversely affected by the characterization of the securitization as a taxable mortgage pool. Certain categories of stockholders, however, such as foreign stockholders eligible for treaty or other benefits, stockholders with net operating losses, and certain

tax-exempt

stockholders that are subject to unrelated business income tax, or UBTI, could be subject to increased taxes on a portion of their dividend income from us that is attributable to the taxable mortgage pool. We currently own no UBTI producing assets and we do not intend to purchase or generate assets that produce UBTI distributions in the future.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, we recorded a current income tax provision of $46,000 and $147,000, respectively, primarily related to activities of our taxable REIT subsidiaries and various state and local taxes. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, we recorded a current income tax provision of $104,000 and $224,000, respectively. We did not have any deferred tax assets or liabilities as of June 30, 2019 or December 31, 2018.

Effective January 1, 2018, under legislation from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017, the maximum U.S. federal corporate income tax rate was reduced from 35% to 21%. Accordingly, to the extent that the activities of our taxable REIT subsidiaries generate taxable income in future periods, they may be subject to lower U.S. federal income tax rates.

We have net operating losses, or NOLs, generated by our predecessor business that may be carried forward and utilized in current or future periods. As a result of our issuance of 25,875,000 shares of class A common stock in May 2013, the availability of our NOLs is generally limited to $

2.0

million per annum by change of control provisions promulgated by the Internal Revenue Service with respect to the ownership of Blackstone Mortgage Trust. As of December 31, 2018, we had estimated NOLs of $159.0 million that will expire in 2029, unless they are utilized by us prior to expiration.

As of June 30, 2019, tax years 2015 through 2018 remain subject to examination by taxing authorities.

14. STOCK-BASED INCENTIVE PLANS

We are externally managed by our Manager and do not currently have any employees. However, as of June 30, 2019, our Manager, certain individuals employed by an affiliate of our Manager, and certain members of our board of directors were compensated, in part, through our issuance of stock-based instruments.

We had stock-based incentive awards outstanding under nine benefit plans as of June 30, 2019. Seven of such benefit plans have expired and

new awards may be issued under them. Under our two current benefit plans, a maximum of 5,000,000 shares of our class A common stock may be issued to our Manager, our directors and officers, and certain employees of affiliates of our Manager. As of June 30, 2019, there were

3,973,619

shares available under our current benefit plans.

The following table details the movement in our outstanding shares of restricted class A common stock and the weighted-average grant date fair value per share:


	Restricted Class A Common Stock			Weighted-Average Grant Date Fair Value Per Share
Balance as of December 31, 2018		1,614,907		$	32.94
Granted		334,904			31.54
Vested		(420,780	)		32.15
Forfeited		(17,565	)		31.55

Balance as of June 30, 2019		1,511,466		$	32.87

These shares generally vest in installments over a three-year period, pursuant to the terms of the respective award agreements and the terms of our current benefit plans. The 1,511,466 shares of restricted class A common stock outstanding as of June 30, 2019 will vest as follows: 527,627 shares will vest in 2019; 649,043 shares will vest in 2020; and 334,796 shares will vest in 2021. As of June 30, 2019, total unrecognized compensation cost relating to unvested share-based compensation arrangements was $44.9 million based on the grant date fair value of shares granted subsequent to July 1, 2018. The compensation cost of our share based compensation arrangements for awards granted before July 1, 2018 is based on $31.43, the closing price of our class A common stock on the last trading day prior to July 1, 2018. This cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.1 years from June 30, 2019.

16. VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES

Consolidated Variable Interest Entities

We have financed a portion of our loans through the CLO and the 2017 Single Asset Securitization, both of which are VIEs. We are the primary beneficiary of, and therefore consolidate, the CLO and the 2017 Single Asset Securitization on our balance sheet as we (i) control the relevant interests of the CLO and the 2017 Single Asset Securitization that give us power to direct the activities that most significantly affect the CLO and the 2017 Single Asset Securitization, and (ii) have the right to receive benefits and obligation to absorb losses of the CLO and the 2017 Single Asset Securitization through the subordinate interests we own.

The following table details the assets and liabilities of our consolidated CLO and 2017 Single Asset Securitization VIEs ($ in thousands):


	June 30, 2019		December 31, 2018
Assets:
Loans receivable, net	$	1,467,626	$	1,500,000
Other assets		37,043		5,440

Total assets	$	1,504,669	$	1,505,440

Other liabilities		1,997		2,155

Total liabilities	$	1,289,361	$	1,287,626

Assets held by these VIEs are restricted and can be used only to settle obligations of the VIEs, including the subordinate interests owned by us. The liabilities of these VIEs are

non-recourse

to us and can only be satisfied from the assets of the VIEs. The consolidation of these VIEs results in an increase in our gross assets, liabilities, interest income and interest expense, however it does not affect our stockholders’ equity or net income.

Non-Consolidated

Variable Interest Entities

In the third quarter of 2018, we contributed a $517.5 million loan to the $1.0 billion 2018 Single Asset Securitization, which is a VIE, and invested in the related $99.0 million subordinate risk retention position. We are not the primary beneficiary of the VIE because we do not have the power to direct the activities that most significantly affect the VIE’s economic performance and, therefore, do not consolidate the 2018 Single Asset Securitization on our balance sheet. We have classified the subordinate risk retention position as a held-to-maturity debt security that is included in other assets on our consolidated balance sheets. Our maximum exposure to loss from the 2018 Single Asset Securitization is limited to our book value of $94.6 million as of June 30, 2019. Refer to Note 17 for further details of this transaction.

We are not obligated to provide, have not provided, and do not intend to provide financial support to these consolidated and

non-consolidated

VIEs.

17. TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES

We are managed by our Manager pursuant to the Management Agreement, the current term of which expires on

December 19, 2019

, and will be automatically renewed for a

one-year

term upon such date and each anniversary thereafter unless earlier terminated.

As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, our consolidated balance sheets included $21.0 million and $18.6 million of accrued management and incentive fees payable to our Manager, respectively. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, we paid management and incentive fees of $19.8 million and $38.4 million, respectively, to our Manager, compared to $15.5 million and $29.8 million during the same periods of 2018. In addition, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, we reimbursed our Manager for expenses incurred on our behalf of $242,000 and $430,000, respectively, compared to $215,000 and $405,000 during the same periods of 2018.

As of June 30, 2019, our Manager held 723,542 shares of unvested restricted class A common stock, which had an aggregate grant date fair value of $22.9 million, and vest in installments over three years from the date of issuance. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, we recorded

non-cash

expenses related to shares held by our Manager of $3.9 million and $7.7 million, respectively, compared to $3.2 million and $6.4 million during the same periods of 2018. Refer to Note 14 for further details on our restricted class A common stock.

An affiliate of our Manager is the special servicer of the CLO. This affiliate did not earn any special servicing fees related to the CLO during the six months ended June 30, 2019 or 2018.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, we incurred $90,000 and $176,000, respectively, of expenses for various administrative, compliance, and capital market data services to third-party service providers that are affiliates of our Manager, compared to $153,000 and $293,000 during the same periods of 2018.

In the second quarter of 2019, certain Blackstone-advised investment vehicles acquired an aggregate $55.0 million participation, or 11% of the total Secured Term Loan as a part of a broad syndication

lead-arranged

by JP Morgan. Blackstone Advisory Partners L.P., an affiliate of our Manager, was engaged as a book-runner for the transaction and received a fee of $500,000 in such capacity. Both of these transactions were on terms equivalent to those of unaffiliated parties.

In the second quarter of 2019, we originated

€

191.8 million of a total

€

391.3 million senior loan to a borrower that is wholly owned by a Blackstone-advised investment vehicle. We will forgo all

non-economic

rights under the loan, including voting rights, so long as the Blackstone-advised investment vehicle controls the borrower. The senior loan terms were negotiated by a third-party without our involvement and our 49% interest in the senior loan was made on such market terms.

In the first quarter of 2019, we originated £240.1 million of a total £490.0 million senior loan to a borrower that is wholly owned by a Blackstone-advised investment vehicle. We will forgo all

non-economic

During the six months ended June 30, 2018, we originated two loans whereby each respective borrower engaged an affiliate of our Manager to act as title insurance agent in connection with each transaction. We did not incur any expenses or receive any revenues as a result of these transactions. We did not have any similar transactions during the six months ended June 30, 2019.

In the second quarter of 2018, we acquired from an unaffiliated third-party a 50% interest in a $1.0 billion senior loan to a borrower that is partially owned by a Blackstone-advised investment vehicle. In the third quarter of 2018, we contributed this loan to the 2018 Single Asset Securitization and invested in the related subordinate risk retention position. We will forgo all

non-economic

rights under the loan, including voting rights, so long as Blackstone-advised investment vehicles own the borrower above a certain threshold. Refer to Note 16 for further details on this transaction.

In the first quarter of 2018, we originated

€

1.0 billion of a total

€

7.3 billion senior term facility, or the Senior Term Facility, for the acquisition of a portfolio of Spanish real estate assets and a Spanish real estate management and loan servicing company by a joint venture between Banco Santander S.A. and certain Blackstone-advised investment vehicles. These investment vehicles own 51% of the joint venture, and we will forgo all

non-economic

rights under the Senior Term Facility, including voting rights, so long as Blackstone-advised investment vehicles control the joint venture. The Senior Term Facility was negotiated by the joint venture with third-party investment banks without our involvement, and our 14% interest in the Senior Term Facility was made on such market terms.

In the first quarter of 2018, we originated a $330.0 million senior loan, the proceeds of which were used by the borrower to repay an existing loan owned by a Blackstone-advised investment vehicle.

18. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Unfunded Commitments Under Loans Receivable

As of June 30, 2019, we had unfunded commitments of $3.2 billion related to 91 loans receivable, which amounts will generally be funded to finance our borrowers’ construction or development of real estate-related assets, capital improvements of existing assets, or lease-related expenditures. These commitments will generally be funded over the term of each loan, subject in certain cases to an expiration date.

Introduction

I. Key Financial Measures and Indicators

As a real estate finance company, we believe the key financial measures and indicators for our business are earnings per share, dividends declared, Core Earnings, and book value per share. For the three months ended June 30, 2019 we recorded earnings per share of $0.59, declared a dividend of $0.62 per share, and reported $0.68 per share of Core Earnings. In addition, our book value per share as of June 30, 2019 was $27.85. As further described below, Core Earnings is a measure that is not prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, or GAAP. We use Core Earnings to evaluate our performance excluding the effects of certain transactions and GAAP adjustments that we believe are not necessarily indicative of our current loan activity and operations.

Earnings Per Share and Dividends Declared

The following table sets forth the calculation of basic and diluted net income per share and dividends declared per share ($ in thousands, except per share data):


	Three Months Ended
	June 30, 2019		March 31, 2019

Dividends declared per share	$	0.62	$	0.62

____________

(1)

Represents net income attributable to Blackstone Mortgage Trust, Inc.

Table of Contents

Core Earnings

Core Earnings is a

non-GAAP

measure, which we define as GAAP net income (loss), including realized gains and losses not otherwise included in GAAP net income (loss), and excluding (i) net income (loss) attributable to our CT Legacy Portfolio, (ii)

non-cash

equity compensation expense, (iii) depreciation and amortization, (iv) unrealized gains (losses), and (v) certain

non-cash

items. Core Earnings may also be adjusted from time to time to exclude

one-time

events pursuant to changes in GAAP and certain other

non-cash

charges as determined by our Manager, subject to approval by a majority of our independent directors.

We believe that Core Earnings provides meaningful information to consider in addition to our net income and cash flow from operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP. This adjusted measure helps us to evaluate our performance excluding the effects of certain transactions and GAAP adjustments that we believe are not necessarily indicative of our current loan portfolio and operations. Although, according to the management agreement between our Manager and us, or our Management Agreement, we calculate the incentive and base management fees due to our Manager using Core Earnings before our incentive fee expense, we report Core Earnings after incentive fee expense, as we believe this is a more meaningful presentation of the economic performance of our class A common stock.

Core Earnings does not represent net income or cash generated from operating activities and should not be considered as an alternative to GAAP net income, or an indication of our GAAP cash flows from operations, a measure of our liquidity, or an indication of funds available for our cash needs. In addition, our methodology for calculating Core Earnings may differ from the methodologies employed by other companies to calculate the same or similar supplemental performance measures, and accordingly, our reported Core Earnings may not be comparable to the Core Earnings reported by other companies.

The following table provides a reconciliation of Core Earnings to GAAP net income ($ in thousands, except per share data):


	Three Months Ended
	June 30, 2019		March 31, 2019

	(1)			Represents net income attributable to Blackstone Mortgage Trust.
	(2)			Primarily represents the forward points earned on our foreign currency forward contracts, which reflect the interest rate differentials between the applicable base rate for our foreign currency investments and USD LIBOR. These forward contracts effectively convert the rate exposure to USD LIBOR, resulting in additional interest income earned in U.S. dollar terms. These amounts are not included in GAAP net income, but rather as a component of Other Comprehensive Income in our consolidated financial statements.

Total loan exposure encompasses the entire loan we originated and financed, including $406.3 million of such non-consolidated senior interests that are not included in our balance sheet portfolio.
(3)		Includes investment exposure to the $1.0 billion 2018 Single Asset Securitization. We do not consolidate the 2018 Single Asset Securitization on our consolidated financial statements, and instead reflect our $97.2 million subordinate risk retention investment as a component of other assets on our consolidated balance sheet. Refer to Notes 4 and 16 to our consolidated financial statements for further discussion of the 2018 Single Asset Securitization.

These commitments will generally be funded over the term of each loan, subject in certain cases to an expiration date.
(5)		As of June 30, 2019, 97% of our loans by total loan exposure earned a floating rate of interest, primarily indexed to USD LIBOR, and 3% earned a fixed rate of interest. The weighted-average cash coupon and all-in yield are expressed in terms excluding the relevant floating benchmark rates as of June 30, 2019. In addition to cash coupon, all-in yield includes the amortization of deferred origination and extension fees, loan origination costs, and purchase discounts, as well as the accrual of exit fees.
(6)		Maximum maturity assumes all extension options are exercised by the borrower, however our loans and other investments may be repaid prior to such date.

Floating Rate Portfolio

Generally, our business model is such that rising interest rates will increase our net income, while declining interest rates will decrease net income. As of June 30, 2019, 97% of our loans by total loan exposure earned a floating rate of interest and were financed with liabilities that pay interest at floating rates, which resulted in an amount of net equity that is positively correlated to rising interest rates, subject to the impact of interest rate floors on certain of our floating rate loans. As of June 30, 2019, the remaining 3% of our loans by total loan exposure earned a fixed rate of interest, but are financed with liabilities that pay interest at floating rates, which resulted in a negative correlation to rising interest rates to the extent of our financing. In certain instances where we have financed fixed rate assets with floating rate liabilities, we have purchased interest rate swaps or caps to limit our exposure to increases in interest rates on such liabilities.

Our liabilities are generally currency and index-matched to each collateral asset, resulting in a net exposure to movements in benchmark rates that varies by currency silo based on the relative proportion of floating rate assets and liabilities. The following table details our loan portfolio’s net exposure to interest rates by currency as of June 30, 2019 ($/

Income from loans and other investments, net

Income from loans and other investments, net increased $2.7 million and $23.4 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, as compared to the corresponding periods in 2018. The increases in both periods were primarily due to (i) an increase in the

weighted-average

principal balance of our loan portfolio by $2.3 billion and $3.4 billion during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, as compared to the corresponding periods in 2018, and (ii) an increase in LIBOR. This was offset by the increase in the

weighted-average

principal balance of our outstanding financing arrangements, which increased by $1.9 billion and $2.9 billion during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, as compared to the corresponding periods in 2018.

Other expenses

Other expenses are composed of management and incentive fees payable to our Manager and our general and administrative expenses. Other expenses decreased by $254,000 during the three months ended June 30, 2019 compared to the corresponding period in 2018 due to a decrease of $3.6 million of incentive fees payable to our Manager. This was partially offset by (i) an increase of $2.2 million of management fees payable to our Manager, primarily as a result of net proceeds received from the sale of shares of our class A common stock during 2018 and 2019, (ii) $1.0 million of additional

non-cash

restricted stock amortization related to shares awarded under our long-term incentive plans, and (iii) an increase of $173,000 of general operating expenses.

Other expenses increased by $4.7 million during the six months ended June 30, 2019 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2018 due to (i) an increase of $4.2 million of management fees payable to our Manager, primarily as a result of net proceeds received from the sale of shares of our class A common stock during 2018 and 2019, and (ii) $1.8 million of additional

non-cash

restricted stock amortization related to shares awarded under our long-term incentive plans. This was partially offset by (i) a decrease of $1.3 million of incentive fees payable to our Manager, and (ii) a decrease of $13,000 of general operating expenses.

Table of Contents

In addition to our current sources of liquidity, we have access to liquidity through public offerings of debt and equity securities. To facilitate such offerings, in July 2016, we filed a shelf registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC, that is effective for a term of three years and expires at the end of July 2019. The amount of securities to be issued pursuant to this shelf registration statement was not specified when it was filed and there is no specific dollar limit on the amount of securities we may issue. The securities covered by this registration statement include: (i) class A common stock; (ii) preferred stock; (iii) debt securities; (iv) depositary shares representing preferred stock; (v) warrants; (vi) subscription rights; (vii) purchase contracts; and (viii) units consisting of one or more of such securities or any combination of these securities. The specifics of any future offerings, along with the use of proceeds of any securities offered, will be described in detail in a prospectus supplement, or other offering materials, at the time of any offering.

We may also access liquidity through a dividend reinvestment plan and direct stock purchase plan, under which 9,994,685 shares of class A common stock were available for issuance as of June 30, 2019, and our

at-the-market

stock offering program, pursuant to which we may sell, from time to time, up to $363.8 million of additional shares of our class A common stock as of June 30, 2019. Refer to Note 11 to our consolidated financial statements for additional details.

Our existing loan portfolio also provides us with liquidity as loans are repaid or sold, in whole or in part, and the proceeds from such repayments become available for us to reinvest.

Liquidity Needs

In addition to our ongoing loan origination activity, our primary liquidity needs include interest and principal payments under our $8.3 billion of outstanding borrowings under secured debt agreements, our Secured Term Loan, our Convertible Notes, our unfunded loan commitments, dividend distributions to our stockholders, and operating expenses.

This is only an estimate as actual amounts borrowed and interest rates will vary over time.
(6)		Total does not include $406.3 million of non-consolidated senior interests and $1.3 billion of securitized debt obligations, as the satisfaction of these liabilities will not require cash outlays from us.

We are also required to settle our foreign currency forward contracts and interest rate swaps with our derivative counterparties upon maturity which, depending on foreign exchange and interest rate movements, may result in cash received from or due to the respective counterparty. The table above does not include these amounts as they are not fixed and determinable. Refer to Note 10 to our consolidated financial statements for details regarding our derivative contracts.

We are required to pay our Manager a base management fee, an incentive fee, and reimbursements for certain expenses pursuant to our Management Agreement. The table above does not include the amounts payable to our Manager under our Management Agreement as they are not fixed and determinable. Refer to Note 12 to our consolidated financial statements for additional terms and details of the fees payable under our Management Agreement.

As a REIT, we generally must distribute substantially all of our net taxable income to stockholders in the form of dividends to comply with the REIT provisions of the Internal Revenue Code.

V. Other Items

Income Taxes

Our qualification as a REIT also depends on our ability to meet various other requirements imposed by the Internal Revenue Code, which relate to organizational structure, diversity of stock ownership, and certain restrictions with regard to the nature of our assets and the sources of our income. Even if we qualify as a REIT, we may be subject to certain U.S. federal income and excise taxes and state and local taxes on our income and assets. If we fail to maintain our qualification as a REIT for any taxable year, we may be subject to material penalties as well as federal, state and local income tax on our taxable income at regular corporate rates and we would not be able to qualify as a REIT for the subsequent four full taxable years. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, we were in compliance with all REIT requirements.

Refer to Note 13 to our consolidated financial statements for additional discussion of our income taxes.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires our Manager to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ from these estimates. There have been no material changes to our Critical Accounting Policies described in our annual report on Form

10-K

filed with the SEC on February 12, 2019.

____________


(1)		Our floating rate loans and related liabilities are indexed to the various benchmark rates relevant in each case in terms of currency and payment frequency. Therefore the net exposure to each benchmark rate is in direct proportion to our net assets indexed to that rate. Increases (decreases) in interest income and expense are presented net of incentive fees. Refer to Note 12 to our consolidated financial statements for additional details of our incentive fee calculation.
(2)		Includes borrowings under secured debt agreements, non-consolidated senior interests, securitized debt obligations, and secured term loans.
(3)		Liabilities balance includes two interest rate swaps totaling C$17.3 million ($13.2 million as of June 30, 2019) that are used to hedge a portion of our fixed rate debt.

Loan Portfolio Value

As of June 30, 2019, 3% of our loans by total loan exposure earned a fixed rate of interest and as such, the values of such loans are sensitive to changes in interest rates. We generally hold all of our loans to maturity and so do not expect to realize gains or losses on our fixed rate loan portfolio as a result of movements in market interest rates.

Risk of

Non-Performance

In addition to the risks related to fluctuations in cash flows and asset values associated with movements in interest rates, there is also the risk of

non-performance

on floating rate assets. In the case of a significant increase in interest rates, the additional debt service payments due from our borrowers may strain the operating cash flows of the collateral real estate assets and, potentially, contribute to

non-performance

or, in severe cases, default. This risk is partially mitigated by various facts we consider during our underwriting process, which in certain cases include a requirement for our borrower to purchase an interest rate cap contract.

Credit Risks

Our loans and investments are also subject to credit risk. The performance and value of our loans and investments depend upon the sponsors’ ability to operate the properties that serve as our collateral so that they produce cash

Table of Contents

flows adequate to pay interest and principal due to us. To monitor this risk, our Manager’s asset management team reviews our investment portfolios and in certain instances is in regular contact with our borrowers, monitoring performance of the collateral and enforcing our rights as necessary.

In addition, we are exposed to the risks generally associated with the commercial real estate market, including variances in occupancy rates, capitalization rates, absorption rates, and other macroeconomic factors beyond our control. We seek to manage these risks through our underwriting and asset management processes.

Capital Market Risks

We are exposed to risks related to the equity capital markets, and our related ability to raise capital through the issuance of our class A common stock or other equity instruments. We are also exposed to risks related to the debt capital markets, and our related ability to finance our business through borrowings under credit facilities or other debt instruments. As a REIT, we are required to distribute a significant portion of our taxable income annually, which constrains our ability to accumulate operating cash flow and therefore requires us to utilize debt or equity capital to finance our business. We seek to mitigate these risks by monitoring the debt and equity capital markets to inform our decisions on the amount, timing, and terms of capital we raise.

Counterparty Risk

The nature of our business requires us to hold our cash and cash equivalents and obtain financing from various financial institutions. This exposes us to the risk that these financial institutions may not fulfill their obligations to us under these various contractual arrangements. We mitigate this exposure by depositing our cash and cash equivalents and entering into financing agreements with high credit-quality institutions.

The nature of our loans and investments also exposes us to the risk that our counterparties do not make required interest and principal payments on scheduled due dates. We seek to manage this risk through a comprehensive credit analysis prior to making an investment and active monitoring of the asset portfolios that serve as our collateral.

Currency Risk

Our loans and investments that are denominated in a foreign currency are also subject to risks related to fluctuations in currency rates. We mitigate this exposure by matching the currency of our foreign currency assets to the currency of the borrowings that finance those assets. As a result, we substantially reduce our exposure to changes in portfolio value related to changes in foreign currency rates. In certain circumstances, we may also enter into foreign currency derivative contracts to further mitigate this exposure.

The following table outlines our assets and liabilities that are denominated in a foreign currency (£/

€

/A$/C$ in thousands):


	June 30, 2019
Foreign currency assets (1)	£	1,328,501		€	1,162,363		A$	498,907		C$	201,396

____________


(1)		Balances include non-consolidated senior interests of £302.0 million.

We estimate that a 10% appreciation of the United States dollar relative to the British Pound Sterling and the Euro would result in a decline in our net assets in U.S. dollar terms of $58.0 million and $47.5 million, respectively, as of June 30, 2019. Substantially all of our net asset exposure to the Canadian and Australian dollar has been hedged with foreign currency forward contracts.
