Definitions
Core
Earnings
is
an
adjusted
measure
that
helps
BXMT
to
evaluate
its
performance
excluding
the
effects
of
certain
transactions
and
GAAP
adjustments
that
it
believes
are
not
necessarily
indicative
of
its
current
loan
origination
portfolio
and
operations.
BXMT
also
uses
Core
Earnings
to
calculate
the
incentive
and
base
management
fees
due
to
its
manager
under
its
management
agreement
and,
as
such,
BXMT
believes
that
the
disclosure
of
Core
Earnings
is useful to investors.
Core
Earnings
is
defined
as
GAAP
net
income
(loss),
including
realized
losses
not
otherwise
included
in
GAAP
net
income
(loss),
and
excluding
(i)
net
income
(loss)
attributable
to
CT
Legacy
Portfolio
segment,
(ii)
non-cash
equity
compensation
expense,
(iii)
incentive
management
fees,
(iv)
depreciation
and
amortization,
and
(v)
unrealized
gains
(losses)
or
similar
non-cash
items,
including
the
amortization
of
the
deemed
issue
discount
on
BXMT’s
convertible
notes
resulting
from
the
conversion
option
value
accounting
under
GAAP.
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 BXMT’s manager, subject to approval by a majority of its independent directors.
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
cash
flow
from
GAAP
operating
activities,
a
measure
of
BXMT’s
liquidity,
or
an
indication
of
funds
available
for
its
cash
needs.
In
addition,
BXMT’s
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,
its
reported
Core
Earnings
may
not
be
comparable to the Core Earnings reported by other companies.
Blackstone
Mortgage
Trust
discloses
the
following
financial
measures
that
are
calculated
and
presented
on
the
basis
of
methodologies
other
than
in
accordance
with
generally
accepted
accounting
principles
in
the
United
States
of
America (“GAAP”) in this presentation:
