KBS Strategic Opportunity REIT Valuation and Portfolio Update December 14, 2017 Exhibit 99.1


 
Forward-Looking Statements The information contained herein should be read in conjunction with, and is qualified by, the information in the KBS Strategic Opportunity REIT, Inc. (“KBS Strategic Opportunity REIT”) Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016, filed with the Securities and Commission Exchange (the “SEC”) on March 10, 2017 (the “Annual Report”), and in KBS Strategic Opportunity REIT’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended September 30, 2017, filed with the SEC on November 14, 2017, including the “Risk Factors” contained therein. For a full description of the limitations, methodologies and assumptions used to value KBS Strategic Opportunity REIT’s assets and liabilities in connection with the calculation of KBS Strategic Opportunity REIT’s estimated value per share, see KBS Strategic Opportunity REIT’s Current Report on Form 8-K, filed with the SEC on December 13, 2017. Forward-Looking Statements Certain statements contained herein may be deemed to be forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Federal Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. KBS Strategic Opportunity REIT intends that such forward-looking statements be subject to the safe harbors created by Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. These statements include statements regarding the intent, belief or current expectations of KBS Strategic Opportunity REIT and members of its management team, as well as the assumptions on which such statements are based, and generally are identified by the use of words such as “may,” “will,” “seeks,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “expects,” “plans,” “intends,” “should” or similar expressions. Further, forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and KBS Strategic Opportunity REIT undertakes no obligation to update or revise forward-looking statements to reflect changed assumptions, the occurrence of unanticipated events or changes to future operating results over time, unless required by law. Actual results may differ materially from those contemplated by such forward-looking statements. The valuation methodology for certain of KBS Strategic Opportunity REIT’s real estate investments assumes that its properties realize the projected cash flows and exit cap rates and that investors would be willing to invest in such properties at cap rates equal to the cap rates used in the valuation. Though the appraisals and valuation estimates used in calculating the estimated value per share are Duff & Phelps and Newmark Knight Frank Valuation & Advisory, LLC’s best estimates as of September 30, 2017, and/or KBS Strategic Opportunity REIT’s and KBS Capital Advisors LLC’s (“the Advisor”) best estimates as of December 7, 2017, KBS Strategic Opportunity REIT can give no assurance that these estimated values will be realized by KBS Strategic Opportunity REIT. These statements also depend on factors such as future economic, competitive and market conditions, KBS Strategic Opportunity REIT’s ability to maintain occupancy levels and rental rates at its properties, and other risks identified in Part I, Item IA of KBS Strategic Opportunity REIT’s Annual Report on form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016, and its subsequent quarterly reports. Actual events may cause the value and returns on KBS Strategic Opportunity REIT’s investments to be less than that used for purposes of KBS Strategic Opportunity REIT’s estimated value per share. 2

 Estimated value per share2 calculated using information as of September 30, 2017 • Net asset value; no enterprise (portfolio) premium or discount applied • Considered potential participation fee that would be due to the advisor in a hypothetical liquidation if the required shareholder return thresholds are met. – Adjusted for the impact of the self-tender offer completed in October 2017 – Adjusted for a special dividend of $3.61 to shareholders of record on December 7, 2017 • KBS Strategic Opportunity REIT followed the IPA Valuation Guidelines, which included independent third-party appraisals for all of its consolidated properties and two of its unconsolidated joint venture investments in real estate properties. Duff & Phelps and Newmark Knight Frank Valuation & Advisory, LLC (“NKF”) were engaged to provide appraisals of the estimated market values of real estate assets. Duff & Phelps provided appraisals of all investments in consolidated real estate properties (excluding undeveloped land and 11 properties sold to a Singapore REIT3), 110 William Street and 353 Sacramento, and NKF provided appraisals of all investments in undeveloped land. The appraisals were performed in accordance with the Code of Professional Ethics and Standards of Profession Practice set forth by the Appraisal Institute and the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP). • The valuation of the Company’s real estate properties were based on appraisals of such investments performed by third-party valuation firms.  Non-controlling interest liability due to our joint venture partners calculated by assuming a hypothetical liquidation of the underlying real estate properties at their current appraised values and the payoff of any related debt at its fair value, based on the profit participation thresholds contained in the joint venture agreements. 1For more information, see KBS Strategic Opportunity REIT’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on December 13, 2017. 2The estimated value of the REIT’s assets less the estimated value of the REIT’s liabilities, divided by the number of shares outstanding, all as of September 30, 2017. 3 Value of these 11 properties were based on sales price less disposition costs and fees.

Valuation1 On December 7, 2017, KBS Strategic Opportunity REIT’s Board approved an estimated value per share as follows:1 6 1 Based on the estimated value of KBS Strategic Opportunity REIT’s assets less the estimated value of its liabilities, divided by the number of shares outstanding, all as of September 30, 2017, with the exception of an adjustment to the REIT’s net asset value to give effect to the October 2017 self-tender. The estimated value per share is $15.11 before the December 2017 special dividend, and $11.50 after the December 2017 special dividend. 2 Operating cash flow is equal to Adjusted MFFO, which is MFFO less capitalized interest, real estate taxes, and insurance. 3 Includes $15.0 million, or $0.26 per share, of disposition costs for the Singapore REIT (“SREIT”) sale on November 8, 2017. 4 Change is primarily due to the Israeli bond being valued based on its market price, which was 105.2% of par as of Sept. 30, 2017. This compares to a market price of 96.6% of par as of Sept. 30, 2016. Change in Estimated Value Per Share December 2016 estimated value per share $14.81 Investments Real Estate Held as of Sept. 30, 2017 1.30 Investments in Unconsolidated JVs 0.42 Investments in Real Estate Debt and Equity Securities 0.07 Capital Expenditures on Real Estate (0.81) Subtotal – Investments 0.98 Operating Cash Flows in Excess of Distributions Declared2 0.19 Foreign Currency Loss (0.17) Disposition, Acquisition and Financing Costs3 (0.39) Series A Debentures4 (0.41) Tender Offer Price Discount 0.09 Other 0.01 Total Change (before Dec. 2017 Special Dividend) 0.30 Dec. 2017 Estimated Share Value (before Dec. 2017 Special Dividend) $15.11 Dec. 2017 Special Distribution ($3.61) Dec. 2017 Estimated Share Value (after Dec. 2017 Special Dividend) $11.50


 
Special Dividend 7 The special dividend is being made primarily as a consequence of the REIT’s sale on November 8, 2017, of 11 of its properties to a newly formed Singapore real estate investment trust (the “SREIT”). As a result of the taxable income generated from this sale, the REIT must make a special dividend to stockholders to continue to maintain its status as a REIT. • Special dividend of $3.61 per share payable to stockholders of record as of December 7, 2017 • Payment of the special dividend will be made in mid-January 2018 • Stockholders can elect 100% Stock or 100% Cash; the Default election will be 100% Cash • Because the aggregate amount of cash to be distributed by the REIT cannot exceed 20% of the total special dividend, the likely result of a cash election or default election is the receipt of approximately 20% cash and 80% shares of common stock, unless a significant number of stockholders elect to receive 100% stock. • Stockholders will receive election forms in mid-December and must return them to the REIT’s transfer agent by midnight CST on December 29, 2017, if they elect for a 100% stock distribution. • The special dividend is ineligible for reinvestment through the Dividend Reinvestment Plan. • Elections for 100% stock for custodial held accounts require the custodian’s approval • The special dividend payment, including both cash & stock, will generally be taxed as a capital gain distribution. The tax due may exceed the amount of cash, if any, distributed to each stockholder as part of the special dividend. Stockholders are advised to consult their tax advisors regarding the tax consequences of the special dividend.


 
Special Dividend 8 1 Assumes the shareholder receives 20% of the special dividend in cash and 80% in stock. If a significant number of investors elect al l stock, a cash electing investor may receive more than 20% of the special dividend in cash. 2 Equal to 0.2509 shares received in the special stock dividend multiplied times $11.50 share value after the special dividend. Client account statements will reflect a value of $15.11 as of December 31, 2017, which is comprised of the December 2017 NAV per share of $11.50 plus the December 2017 special dividend of $3.61 per share. Statements will reflect a share value of $11.50 beginning with January 2018 statements after the special dividend is paid. Only the cash portion of the special dividend will impact the value of shares held by a client. The following illustrates the approximate pre- and post- special dividend value of an account holding 1,000 shares for which a cash election is made for the special dividend.1 Per Share Total Shares Account Value Before December 2017 Special Dividend: Share Value $15.11 1,000 $15,110 After December 2017 Special Dividend: December 2017 Special Dividend (1) Cash Dividend ($0.72) 1,000 $720 Stock Dividend Value (2) ($2.89) 251 $0 Share Value after Special Dividend $11.50 1,251 $14,390 Total of Share Value + Special Dividend $15,110


 
Series A Debentures 9 The REIT’s Series A Debentures (the “bonds”) are publicly traded on the Tel-Aviv Stock Exchange. Beginning in early 2017, the bonds have been trading at a premium to their face value. The bonds were trading at approximately 105.2% of face value as of September 30, 2017 vs. 96.6% as of September 30, 2016. Since the valuation of the bonds is based on the quoted bond price on the Tel-Aviv Stock Exchange and then adjusted for the foreign currency exchange rate, the value of the bonds has significantly increased as of September 30, 2017 vs. September 30, 2016. Consequently, the estimated value per share declined by $0.41 per share due solely to the change in the quoted bond price (excluding any impact related to changes in exchange rates). The REIT does not intend to pay off the bonds early and thus we will likely never incur the cost of the premium being priced into the bonds. The ultimate maturity date is March 2023 with required annual principal installment payments equal to 20% of the face value of the bonds beginning in March 2019. As a result, the REIT anticipates that the premium on the bonds reflected in the estimated value per share will be recaptured over time as the ultimate maturity of the bonds nears and they are paid off at face value. Sept. 2017 Fair Value Sept. 2016 Fair Value Sept. 2017 Face Value Sept. 2016 Face Value Change in Fair Value, Sept. 2017 vs. Sept. 2016 Change Due to Foreign Currency Rates Change Due to Quoted Bond Price1 Series A Debentures $288,816,866 $250,222,434 $274,540,747 $258,975,817 $38,594,432 $15,564,930 $23,029,501 Estimated Share Value Decrease $0.17 (2) $0.41 1 Equal to change in fair value at Sept. 2017 vs. Sept. 2016, minus the change in face value that's attributed to foreign currency rates. This resulted in a decrease to the estimated share value in Dec. 2017 vs. Dec. 2016. 2 Equal to a change in face value at Sept. 2017 vs. Sept. 2016, with such change causing a decrease to the estimated share value from Dec. 2016 to Dec. 2017 of $0.27 before hedging and $0.17 after hedging gains.

Stockholder Performance KBS Strategic Opportunity REIT is providing this estimated value per share to assist broker dealers that participated in its initial public offering in meeting their customer account statement reporting obligations. As with any valuation methodology, the methodologies used are based upon a number of estimates and assumptions that may not be accurate or complete. Different parties with different assumptions and estimates could derive a different estimated value per share. KBS Strategic Opportunity REIT can give no assurance that:  a stockholder would be able to resell his or her shares at this estimated value per share;  a stockholder would ultimately realize distributions per share equal to KBS Strategic Opportunity REIT's estimated value per share upon liquidation or sale of KBS Strategic Opportunity REIT;  KBS Strategic Opportunity REIT's shares of common stock would trade at the estimated value per share on a national securities exchange;  an independent third-party appraiser or other third-party valuation firm would agree with KBS Strategic Opportunity REIT's estimated value per share; or  the methodology used to estimate KBS Strategic Opportunity REIT's value per share would be acceptable to FINRA or for compliance with ERISA reporting requirements. Further, the estimated value per share as of December 7, 2017 is based on the estimated value of KBS Strategic Opportunity REIT's assets less the estimated value of KBS Strategic Opportunity REIT's liabilities, or net asset value, divided by the number of shares outstanding as of September 30, 2017, with the exception of an adjustment to the REIT’s net asset value to give effect to the October 2017 self-tender. The estimated value per share is $11.50 per share after adjusting for the December 2017 special dividend of $3.61 per share, for a total value of $15.11 per share. 25
