Composition
Interest
Rates
$6.7 billion in assets, including $3.4 billion (50% of total) in loans, $1.7 billion (26%) in CMBS & other securities, and
$1.0 billion (16%) in real estate equity
79% of assets are senior secured and/or investment grade-rated
Loans
Originated $858 million of loans in Q4 2019 and $2.5 billion of loans in FY 2019
Sold $456 million of loans, generating $15 million of Core gains in Q4 2019; sold $1.0 billion of loans, generating
$39 million of Core gains in FY 2019
Real Estate (Equity)
Acquired $6 million of net leased commercial real estate properties in Q4 2019 and $20 million in FY 2019
Received net proceeds from real estate sales of $24 million in FY 2019
Core Earnings of $48.6 million and Core EPS of $0.40 in Q4 2019; Core Earnings of $190.6 million and Core EPS of
$1.60 in FY 2019
After-Tax Core Return on Average Equity (Core ROAE) of 11.5% for Q4 2019 and 11.6% for FY 2019
Declared Q4 2019 cash dividend of $0.34/share, which represents a 8.4% annual dividend yield(2)
and an
85% cash dividend/Core EPS payout ratio (full-year 2019 payout ratio was also 85%)
Adjusted Leverage Ratio of 3.0x, or 1.9x excluding investment grade-rated securities portfolio(3)
Over $2.5 billion of undrawn committed financing capacity
74% of Ladder’s loans are floating-rate
Core Earnings are positively correlated to rising rates – a 1.0% increase in U.S. LIBOR would increase net interest
income by approximately $0.03 per share per quarter, whereas a 1.0% decrease in U.S. LIBOR would reduce net
interest income by less than a penny per share per quarter
