Management emphasizes operating from position of strength, competitive position never stronger, but acknowledges dynamic market conditions and timing mismatches.

### Demand visibility

Refinancing-driven demand in multifamily/industrial; $380M executed term sheets provide near-term deployment visibility.

Lending demand driven primarily by refinancing in multifamily and industrial sectors, supported by bank balance sheets and CRE CLO buyers. Executed term sheets of ~$380M give visibility. However, rate volatility suppresses transaction activity and extends term-sheet-to-close timelines.

New loans at 2.79% weighted avg credit spread; cost of funds 1.83%; financing transactions leverage and cost-of-funds neutral.

Q2 originations: 3 first mortgage loans, $466M commitments at 2.79% weighted avg credit spread. Liability structure: 85.2% non-mark-to-market across 11 sources, weighted avg cost of funds 1.83%. New Term Loan B at 2.75% spread, corporate revolver at 2.00% spread. $8M fees partially amortized over 5-7 years.

### Capital allocation

Share repurchases ($10.8M for 1.3M shares), portfolio growth, REO monetization to recycle capital, leverage target 3.5x-3.75x.

Repurchased 1.3M shares at $8.26 avg ($10.8M total), $9.3M remaining on repurchase plan. Net assets grew 15% YoY ($551M). REO monetization expected this year to recycle capital. Leverage increased to 3.32x from 3.1x due to investment activity; target range 3.5x-3.75x maintained.

### Fears / risks

- **Rate volatility**: Elevated rates and rate volatility suppress transaction activity and widen buyer-seller expectation gap
- **Refinancing risk**: Legacy pre-hike loans at risk if rates stay high; though TRTX has ~70% post-hike vintage
- **Repayment uncertainty**: Slower repayments due to call protection on newer loans and idiosyncratic closing delays
- **Office sector exposure**: Remaining 4.3% office exposure; selective approach but potential for new office deals
- **REO execution risk**: Monetization timeline uncertain; operating fundamentals improving but no firm dates
- **Fee drag from new financing**: $8M fees partially amortized in quarter over 5-7 year life
- **Leverage target**: Current 3.32x below 3.5x-3.75x target; growth dependent on investment pace
- **Earnings timing mismatch**: Distributable earnings impacted by timing of repayments vs. new originations

### Key quotes

> “we continue to believe the market is not fully recognizing the earnings power of our platform, including the strength of our balance sheet, the breadth of TPG's integrated real estate debt and equity investment platform and our unique”

> “our competitive position has never been stronger”

> “we're somewhat unique in that I think because we have newer vintage collateral, that is, you know, we've done $1.7 billion of new loans over the past year. We're going to have, I think, probably a more positive earnings outcome if rates do”

> “we opportunistically kind of accessed the corporate loan market, what we believe are historically attractive terms”

> “there were about $8 million or so of fees that got partially amortized in, and it's over the life of the instrument itself, so between 5 and 7 years, given the term loan and the corporate revolver maturity dates”
