Rhea-AI Filing Summary

ACRES Commercial Realty Corp. completed the previously announced merger with ACRES Capital Corp, acquiring its external manager and becoming internally managed. Each ACC share converted into 2.61882 ACR common shares, resulting in 7,478,462 new shares issued and 13,452,489 ACR shares outstanding at the Merger Effective Time. The existing management agreement was terminated for no additional consideration, and new three‑year employment agreements were put in place for key executives with base salaries of $600,000 or $300,000, bonus targets of at least 50% of salary, and change‑in‑control‑enhanced severance.

Concurrently, the company amended its loan and servicing agreement to provide a term loan Facility of $185,000,000, all funded, bearing fixed interest of 8.749% and maturing on July 25, 2033, with four scheduled principal payments of $46,250,000 each from 2030 through maturity. It also privately placed $200 million of 8.625% Senior Secured Notes due July 31, 2031, rated investment grade by Kroll and secured by subsidiary equity and other CRE assets. The company intends to use part of the Notes proceeds to repay its $150 million 5.75% Senior Unsecured Notes at their August 2026 maturity, with the balance for general corporate purposes. The Notes and related covenants require minimum liquidity of $20,000,000, net debt‑to‑equity not exceeding 5.0x, a collateral coverage ratio of at least 200%, and provide a 1.00% interest step‑up upon loss of an investment‑grade rating and a 101% change‑of‑control repurchase right.

Internalization financial
"the Company became internally managed (the "Internalization")"
Internalization is when a broker or trading firm fills a client’s buy or sell order using its own inventory or by matching it with another client, instead of sending the order out to public exchanges. For investors this matters because it can make trades faster or cheaper but may reduce price transparency and raise potential conflicts, like getting a different price than would be available in the open market — similar to a shopkeeper selling from their own shelf rather than checking the wider market for the best deal.
Senior Secured Notes financial
"private placement of $200 million of 8.625% Senior Secured Notes due 2031"
Senior secured notes are loans a company sells to investors that are backed by specific assets and given first priority for repayment if the company defaults. Because they have a claim on collateral and are paid before other debts, they usually offer lower risk and correspondingly lower interest than unsecured debt; investors use them to judge how safe repayment and recovery of principal might be, like holding a mortgage instead of an unsecured credit card balance.
collateral coverage ratio financial
"a collateral coverage ratio of at least 200% as of the last day"
Collateral coverage ratio measures how much value of pledged assets (collateral) exists relative to the outstanding debt they secure, usually expressed as a multiple or percentage (collateral value ÷ loan amount). It matters to investors because it signals how protected a lender or creditor is if a borrower defaults — like seeing whether the house fully covers a mortgage — and influences credit risk, loan terms, margin calls and recovery prospects.
variable interest entity financial
"ACRES Holdings, LLC, a consolidated variable interest entity"
A variable interest entity (VIE) is a company structure where one party controls another company’s operations and economic outcomes through contracts or special arrangements instead of owning a majority of its voting shares. For investors, VIEs matter because the controlling party’s financial results, debts and risks can appear in the controller’s reports even though ownership looks separate, so understanding VIEs helps assess true exposure, governance limits and transparency—like spotting a puppet controlled by strings rather than direct ownership.
non-controlling interests financial
"economic ownership interests of the third-party investors ... as non-controlling interests"
An ownership stake in a subsidiary held by outside shareholders rather than the parent company, representing the portion of that subsidiary’s assets and profits the parent does not control. For investors, it shows what part of consolidated earnings and equity belongs to others — like a roommate who owns part of a house — which affects how much value and profit per share are truly attributable to the parent company’s shareholders.
make-whole premium financial
"redeemable at 100% of the principal amount plus a "make-whole" premium"
A make-whole premium is an extra payment a borrower must give bondholders when repaying debt early to compensate them for lost future interest; think of it as a lump-sum “catch-up” to leave lenders financially where they would have been if the loan had run its full term. It matters to investors because it affects how much they receive on early redemption and influences a company’s decision to refinance or repay debt, altering bond value and expected returns.

Assumption of Credit Facility

On August 6, 2026, immediately prior to the Merger Effective Time (as defined below) (the "Facility Effective Time"), ACRES Holdings, LLC, ACRES Capital, LLC and ACRES Insurance Agency, LLC, each an indirectly wholly owned subsidiary of ACRES Commercial Realty Corp.

The First Amendment amends and restates the existing loan and servicing agreement (as amended by the First Amendment, the "Loan Agreement") entered into on July 23, 2025 (the "Original Closing Date") and provides for term loan advances in an aggregate principal amount of $185,000,000 (the "Facility"), composed of (i) $130,000,000 in commitments funded on the Original Closing Date and (ii) $55,000,000 in additional commitments funded at the Facility Effective Time. As of the Facility Effective Time, an aggregate $185,000,000 in advances have been funded under the Facility.

The Facility matures on July 25, 2033 (the "Stated Maturity Date"). Scheduled principal payments of $46,250,000 are required on each of July 23, 2030, July 23, 2031, July 23, 2032, and the Stated Maturity Date.

Advances under the Facility bear interest at a fixed rate per annum of 8.749%.

The Borrowers’ obligations under the Loan Agreement are unconditionally guaranteed on a joint and several basis by the Guarantors and each of the other guarantors that may become party to the Loan Agreement from time to time.

The Loan Agreement contains customary financial maintenance covenants, including minimum asset value, maximum loan-to-value, interest coverage, minimum gross revenue, and minimum fund share value requirements.

The Notes will bear interest at a rate of 8.625% per annum, payable semi-annually on each January 31 and July 31, commencing January 31, 2027.

Optional Redemption

 

Prior to July 31, 2028, the Notes will be redeemable at 100% of the principal amount plus a "make-whole" premium, plus any accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount being redeemed, fees, expenses, indemnities and other amounts to, but excluding, the

Report of Independent Auditors

The Shareholders of

ACRES Capital Corp.

 

Opinion

 

We have audited the consolidated financial statements of ACRES Capital Corp. (the Company), which comprise the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the related consolidated statements of income, changes in equity and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”).

 

In our opinion, the accompanying financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company at December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

Basis for Opinion

 

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAS). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are required to be independent of the Company and to meet our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the relevant ethical requirements relating to our audits. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

 

Responsibilities of Management for the Financial Statements

 

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and for the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free of material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

 

In preparing the financial statements, management is required to evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for one year after the date that the financial statements are available to be issued.

 

Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements

 

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free of material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not absolute assurance and therefore is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with GAAS will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. Misstatements are considered material if there is a substantial likelihood that, individually or in the aggregate, they would influence the judgment made by a reasonable user based on the financial statements.

 

In performing an audit in accordance with GAAS, we:

Exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit.
Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, and design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks. Such procedures include examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.
Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control. Accordingly, no such opinion is expressed.

F-2


Table of Contents

Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluate the overall presentation of the financial statements.
Conclude whether, in our judgment, there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time.

 

We are required to communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit, significant audit findings, and certain internal control-related matters that we identified during the audit.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION

 

ACRES Capital Corp., a Delaware corporation, along with its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”), is a private lender dedicated to nationwide middle-market commercial real estate (“CRE”) lending in the United States (“U.S.”). The Company conducts its operations through the use of subsidiaries that it consolidates into its financial statements. Substantially all of the Company’s operations are conducted through ACRES Capital LLC (the “Operating Subsidiary”), a wholly owned subsidiary that is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission as an investment adviser. The Operating Subsidiary serves as the investment manager of ACRES Mortgage Fund, Ltd. (“AMF”), an exempted company under the laws of the Cayman Islands formed for the purpose of investing in CRE mortgage loans. The Operating Subsidiary also serves as the manager of ACRES Commercial Realty Corp. (“ACR”), a Maryland corporation. ACR is a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) that is primarily focused on originating, holding, and managing CRE mortgage loans and other commercial real estate related debt investments.

 

On July 23, 2025, the Company contributed substantially all of its assets, including its interests in the Operating Subsidiary, and liabilities to ACRES Holdings, LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary, in exchange for membership interests in ACRES Holdings, LLC. Contemporaneously with this contribution, ACRES Holdings, LLC issued preferred equity securities to a third party. As a result, the Company holds substantially all of its assets and liabilities through ACRES Holdings, LLC, a consolidated variable interest entity. See Note 3.

 

The Company consolidates AMF in the accompanying financial statements (the “Consolidated Fund”) (the Company, excluding the Consolidated Fund, the “Consolidated Company Entities”). Including the results of the Consolidated Fund significantly increases the reported amounts of the assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and cash flows within the accompanying consolidated financial statements; however, the Consolidated Fund results included herein have no direct effect on the net income attributable to ACRES Capital Corp. or to its stockholders’ deficit. Instead, economic ownership interests of the third-party investors in the Consolidated Fund are reflected as non-controlling interests in the Consolidated Fund. Further, cash flows allocable to non-controlling interests in Consolidated Fund are specifically identifiable within the consolidated statements of cash flows.

 

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“GAAP”). The Company’s Consolidated Fund is an investment company under GAAP based on the following characteristics: the Consolidated Fund obtains funds from one or more investors and the Consolidated Fund’s business purpose and substantive activities are investing funds for returns from investment income. Therefore, investments of the Consolidated Fund are recorded at fair value and the unrealized gain (loss) in an investment’s fair value is recognized on a current basis within the consolidated statements of income. In the preparation of these consolidated financial statements, the Company has retained the investment company accounting for the Consolidated Fund under GAAP.

 

All of the investments held by the Consolidated Fund are presented at their estimated fair values within the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Net income attributable to the economic ownership interest of the third-party investors in the Consolidated Fund are presented within net income attributable to non-controlling interest in Consolidated Fund within the consolidated statements of income.

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, majority-owned or controlled subsidiaries and variable interest entities (“VIEs”) for which the Company is considered the primary beneficiary. All inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

ACRES CAPITAL CORP.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

Variable Interest Entities

 

A VIE is defined as an entity in which equity investors (i) do not have 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. A VIE is required to be consolidated by its primary beneficiary, which is defined as the party that (a) has the power to control the activities that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance and (b) has the obligation to absorb losses of the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE.

 

The Company considers the following criteria in determining whether an entity is a VIE:

 

1.
The equity investment at risk is not sufficient to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support provided by any parties, including the equity holders; or

 

2.
The equity investors lack one or more of the following essential characteristics of a controlling financial interest:

 

a.
The direct ability to make decisions about the entity’s activities through voting rights or similar rights;

 

b.
The obligation to absorb the expected losses of the entity; or

 

c.
The right to receive the expected residual returns of the entity. The equity investors have voting rights that are not proportionate to their economic interests, and the activities of the entity involve or are conducted on behalf of an investor with a disproportionately small voting interest.

 

In determining whether the Company is the primary beneficiary of a VIE, the Company reviews governing contracts, formation documents and any other contractual arrangements to determine the activities that have the most significant impact on the VIE and which entity has the power to direct those activities. The Company also looks for kick-out rights, protective rights, and participating rights as well as any financial or other support provided to the VIE and the reason for that support, and the terms of any explicit or implicit arrangements that may require the Company to provide future support. The Company then makes a determination based on its power to direct the most significant activities of the VIE and/or a financial interest that is potentially significant. In instances when a VIE is owned by both the Company and related parties, the Company considers whether there is a single party in the related party group that meets both the power and losses or benefits criteria on its own as though no related party relationship existed. If one party within the related party group meets both these criteria, such reporting entity is the primary beneficiary of the VIE. If no party within the related party group on its own meets both the power and losses or benefits criteria, but the related party group as a whole meets these two criteria, the determination of primary beneficiary within the related party group is based upon an analysis of the facts and circumstances with the objective of determining which party is most closely associated with the VIE. Determining the primary beneficiary requires significant judgment. The Company continuously analyzes entities in which it holds variable interests to identify reconsideration events and determine whether such entities are VIEs and whether such potential VIEs should be consolidated or deconsolidated.

 

Voting Interest Entities

 

A voting interest entity is an entity in which the total equity investment at risk is sufficient to enable it to finance its activities independently and the equity holders have the power to direct the activities of the entity that most significantly impact its economic performance, the obligation to absorb the losses of the entity and the right to receive the residual returns of the entity. The usual condition for a controlling financial interest in a voting interest entity is ownership of a majority voting interest. If the Company has a majority voting interest in a voting interest entity, the entity will generally be consolidated.

 

F-10


Table of Contents

ACRES CAPITAL CORP.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

The Company performs on-going reassessments of whether entities previously evaluated under the voting interest framework have become VIEs, based on certain events, and therefore subject to the VIE consolidation framework.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and within the period of financial results. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase. Cash and cash equivalents held at the Consolidated Fund represents cash that, although not legally restricted, is not available to support the general liquidity needs of the Company, as the use of such amounts is generally limited to the activities of the Consolidated Fund.

 

As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company had cash balances with financial institutions in excess of Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insured limits. The Company monitors the credit standing of these financial institutions.

 

Restricted Cash

 

Restricted cash consists of deposits received from potential new borrowers. The Company maintains loan expense deposits collected from prospective borrowers used to offset underwriting expenses associated with originating loans.

 

Redeemable Interest

 

Redeemable interest in the Company represents preferred equity securities issued by a subsidiary of the Company to a third party. Income (loss) is allocated based on the preferred return attributable to the redeemable interest. At each balance sheet date, the carrying value of the redeemable interest is presented at the redemption amount, to the extent that the redemption amount exceeds the initial measurement on the date of issuance. The Company recognizes changes in the redemption amount with corresponding adjustments against retained earnings, or additional paid-in-capital in the absence of retained earnings, within stockholders’ deficit within the consolidated balance sheets.

 

Derivative Instruments

Derivative financial instruments are recorded in the accompanying balance sheets at fair value in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 815. When the Company enters into a financial instrument such as a debt or equity agreement (the “host contract”), the Company assesses whether the economic characteristics of any embedded features are clearly and closely related to the primary economic characteristics of the remainder of the host contract. When it is determined that (i) an embedded feature possesses economic characteristics that are not clearly and closely related to the primary economic characteristics of the host contract, and (ii) a separate, stand-alone instrument with the same terms would meet the definition of a financial derivative instrument, then the embedded feature is bifurcated from the host contract and accounted for as a derivative instrument. The estimated fair value of the derivative feature is recorded in the accompanying balance sheets separately from the carrying value of the host contract. Subsequent changes in the estimated fair value of derivatives are recorded as a gain or loss in the Company’s statements of income.

 

The Company concluded the redeemable interest preferred equity securities host contract contained features that required bifurcation and separate accounting under ASC 815.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

Warrants

 

The Company accounts for warrants as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the warrant’s specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance in ASC 480 and ASC 815. The assessment considers whether the warrants are freestanding financial instruments pursuant to ASC 480, meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480, and whether the warrants meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815, including whether the warrants are indexed to the Company’s own common stock, among other conditions for equity classification. This assessment, which requires the use of professional judgment, is conducted at the time of warrant issuance and as of each subsequent quarterly period end date while the warrants are outstanding.

 

For issued or modified warrants that meet all of the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be recorded as a component of additional paid-in capital at the time of issuance. For issued or modified warrants that do not meet all the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be recorded at their initial fair value on the date of issuance, and each consolidated balance sheet date thereafter. Changes in the estimated fair value of the warrants are recognized as a gain or loss on the consolidated statements of income.

 

The Company determined that upon further review of the warrant agreements, the Company concluded that its warrants qualify for liability accounting treatment.

 

Issuance Costs Related to Equity and Debt

 

The Company allocates issuance costs between the individual freestanding instruments identified on the same basis as proceeds were allocated. Issuance costs associated with the issuance of redeemable interests (i.e., temporary equity-classified stock) are recorded as a charge against the gross proceeds of the offering and amortized over the earliest estimable redemption date. Any issuance costs associated with the issuance of liability-classified warrants are expensed as incurred. Issuance costs associated with the issuance of debt are recorded as a direct reduction of the carrying amount of the debt liability. The Company accounts for debt as liabilities measured at amortized cost and amortizes the resulting debt discount to interest expense using the effective interest method over the expected term of the notes pursuant to ASC 835.

 

Non-Controlling Interests

 

The non-controlling interests in Consolidated Fund represents a component of equity and net income attributable to ownership interests that third-party investors hold in the Consolidated Fund.

 

Troubled Debt Restructuring

When the Company modifies or extinguishes debt, it first evaluates whether the modification qualifies as a troubled debt restructuring (“TDR”) under ASC 470-60. As per ASC 470-60, a TDR refers to a situation where the creditor grants concessions to a borrower experiencing financial difficulties. A lender is deemed to have granted a concession if the borrower’s effective interest rate on the restructured debt is less than the effective interest rate of the old debt immediately before the restructuring. Such restructuring is done with the intent to provide relief to the borrower and to maximize the potential for payable recovery by the lender.

 

In accordance with ASC 470-60, when the total future cash payments under the new terms are less than the carrying amount of the payable at the date of restructuring, the difference between the carrying amount and the total future cash payments is recognized as a gain on extinguishment of debt in the consolidated financial statements. This gain is recorded immediately in the period the restructuring occurs. If the total future cash payments under the new terms exceed the carrying amount of the debt at the date of restructuring, no adjustment to the carrying amount of the debt is made. Instead, the Company calculates a new effective interest rate (“EIR”) based on the revised terms of the restructured debt. The debt is then amortized over the remaining term of the debt using the new EIR, with interest expense recognized based on such rate in future periods.

 

F-12


Table of Contents

ACRES CAPITAL CORP.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

If a TDR is determined not to have occurred, the Company evaluates the modification in accordance with ASC 470-50-40, which requires modification to debt instruments to be evaluated to assess whether the modifications are considered “substantial modifications”. A substantial modification of terms is accounted for like an extinguishment.

 

Income Earned from Fee-Based Services

 

Income from fee-based services includes asset management fees, development fees, ACR management fees, servicing fees, and incentive fees. Asset management fees, development fees, and servicing fees are included in management and servicing fees, net on the consolidated statements of income. ACR management fees are included in management and servicing fees, net – related party on the consolidated statements of income. Incentive fees are included in incentive fees on the consolidated statements of income. Incentive fees are earned when specified financial hurdles are met for certain separately managed accounts and ACR. Revenues from fee-based services that the Company provides are recognized as earned over time in accordance with contractual agreements. The services the Company provides represent performance obligations that are satisfied over time.

 

ACR management fees

 

The Company earns a monthly base management fee equal to 1/12th of the amount of ACR’s equity (as defined in the management agreement) multiplied by 1.50%. Such base management fees are included in management and servicing fees, net - related party on the consolidated statements of income.

 

The Company may terminate the management agreement at its option: (A) in the event that ACR defaults in the performance or observance of any material term, condition or covenant contained in the management agreement and such default continues for a period of 30 days after written notice thereof, or (B) without payment of a termination fee by ACR, if ACR becomes regulated as an investment company under the Investment Company Act, with such termination deemed to occur immediately before such event.

The ACR management agreement’s current contract term ends on July 31, 2026, and the agreement provides for automatic one-year renewals on such date and on each July 31 thereafter until terminated. The management agreement may be terminated upon the affirmative vote of at least two-thirds of ACR’s independent directors, or by the affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the outstanding shares of ACR’s common stock, based upon unsatisfactory performance that is materially detrimental to ACR or a determination by ACR’s independent directors that the management fees payable to the Company are not fair, subject to the Company’s right to prevent such a compensation termination by accepting a mutually acceptable reduction of management fees. ACR’s Board must provide 180 days’ prior notice of any such termination. If ACR terminates the management agreement, the Company is entitled to a termination fee equal to four times the sum of the average annual base management fee and the average annual incentive compensation earned by the Company during the two 12-month periods immediately preceding the date of termination, calculated as of the end of the most recently completed fiscal quarter before the date of termination. ACR may also terminate the management agreement for cause with 30 days’ prior written notice from ACR’s Board. No termination fee is payable in the event of a termination for cause (as defined in the management agreement).

 

ACR incentive fees (management agreement)

 

The Company earns an incentive fee calculated and payable in arrears in an amount, not less than zero, equal to the excess of (1) the product of (a) 20% and (b) the excess of (i) Earnings Available for Distribution (“EAD”) (as defined in the management agreement) of ACR for the previous 12-month period, over (ii) the product of (A) ACR’s book value equity in the previous 12-month period, and (B) 7% per annum, over (2) the sum of any incentive compensation paid to the Company with respect to the first three calendar quarters of such previous 12-month period; provided, however, that no incentive compensation shall be payable with respect to any calendar quarter unless EAD for the 12 most recently completed calendar quarters (or such lesser number of completed calendar quarters from September 30, 2022) in the aggregate is greater than zero.

 

F-13


Table of Contents

ACRES CAPITAL CORP.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

Incentive compensation is calculated and payable quarterly to the Company to the extent it is earned. Up to 75% of the incentive compensation is payable in cash and at least 25% is payable in the form of an award of common stock of ACR. The Company may elect to receive more than 25% of its incentive compensation in common stock. All shares are fully vested upon issuance; however, the Company may not sell such shares for one year after the incentive compensation becomes due and payable unless the management agreement is terminated.

 

ACR incentive fees (Manager Incentive Plan)

 

In June 2021, the shareholders of ACR approved the ACR Manager Incentive Plan (“MIP”). The MIP provides for the issuance of ACR equity-based awards to the Company when certain ACR book value targets are met. Such awards vest over four years. The Company initially measures such grants at fair value on the grant date and recognizes income monthly on a straight-line basis over the service period to Incentive fees – related party on the consolidated statements of income.

 

Reimbursable Compensation and Benefits

 

Reimbursable compensation and benefits include reimbursements, at cost, which arise primarily from the services employees of the Company provide pursuant to the ACR management agreement that are charged to ACR. The Company recognizes the revenue for reimbursements when the Company incurs the related reimbursable compensation and benefits and other costs on behalf of ACR.

 

Other Reimbursable Expenses

 

Other reimbursable expenses include reimbursements that arise from out-of-pocket expenses and certain other costs incurred by the Company that related directly to ACR’s operations or other reimbursable activity. The Company has determined that it controls the services provided by third parties for ACR and therefore the Company accounts for the cost of these services and the related reimbursement revenue on a gross basis.

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company accounts for its income taxes under the asset and liability method, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined on the basis of the differences between the financial statements and tax basis of assets and liabilities by using the enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which differences are expected to reverse. The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

 

The Company recognizes deferred tax assets to the extent that it believes that these assets are more likely than not to be realized. In making such a determination, the Company considers material positive and negative evidence, including results of recent operations, income in the carryback period, future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, tax-planning strategies, and projected future taxable income. A valuation allowance is recorded to the extent the more-likely-than-not threshold is not met. If a valuation allowance is recorded and it is subsequently determined that the Company would be able to realize any portion of its deferred tax assets in the future in excess of their net recorded amount, an adjustment would be made to the deferred tax asset valuation allowance, which would reduce the provision for income taxes. Uncertain tax positions are recorded in accordance with ASC 740 on the basis of a two-step process in which (1) it is determined whether it is more likely than not that the tax positions will be sustained on the basis of the technical merits of the position and (2) for those tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold, the largest amount of tax benefit.

 

Investments in Equity Affiliate

 

The Company utilizes the equity method to account for investments when it possesses the ability to exercise significant influence, but not control, over the operating and financial policies of the investee. The ability to exercise significant influence is presumed when the investor possesses more than 20% of the voting interests of the investee. This presumption may be overcome based on specific facts and circumstances that demonstrate that the ability to

F-14


Table of Contents

ACRES CAPITAL CORP.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

exercise significant influence is restricted. The Company elected the fair value option for its equity method investment and determines fair value using the closing price of common shares as of the end of the period. The Company recognizes the unrealized and realized gains and losses on equity investments on the consolidated statements of income as income from investments in equity affiliate - related party.

 

Goodwill

 

Goodwill represents the costs of business acquisitions in excess of the fair value of identifiable net assets acquired. The Company evaluates the recoverability of goodwill annually on the first day of the Company’s fiscal fourth quarter of each fiscal year, or more frequently, if events or changes in circumstances indicate that goodwill might be impaired. If the Company’s review indicates that the carrying amount of goodwill exceeds its fair value, the Company will reduce the carrying amount of goodwill to fair value. Based on the impairment tests performed as of October 1, 2025, there were no indications that goodwill was impaired and nor were there events or changes in circumstances indicating impairment at December 31, 2025.

 

Leases

 

Arrangements are evaluated to identify leases at inception. The right to use an underlying asset for the lease term is recorded as operating lease right-of-use ("ROU") assets and obligations to make lease payments arising from the lease are recorded as lease liabilities. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. Lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. At the adoption date, the Company made an accounting policy election to exclude leases with an initial term of twelve months or less.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

Issuances of options to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock are initially measured at fair value on the grant date and expensed monthly on a straight-line basis over the service period to equity compensation expense on the consolidated statements of income, with a corresponding entry to additional paid-in capital on the consolidated balance sheets. In accordance with GAAP, the fair value of all unvested issuances of restricted stock and options is not remeasured after the initial grant date. The Company accounts for forfeitures of employee awards as they occur. As a result, the Company records compensation cost assuming all option holders will complete the requisite service period. If an employee forfeits an award because they fail to complete the requisite service period, the Company will reverse compensation cost previously recognized in the period the award is forfeited.

 

Reclassifications

 

Certain reclassifications have been made to prior year’s financial information to conform to the December 31, 2025 presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on net loss or total equity.

 

Recent accounting pronouncements

 

Accounting Standards Adopted in 2025

 

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures ("ASU 2023-09"). ASU 2023-09 requires enhanced disclosures in connection with an entity's effective tax rate reconciliation and additional disclosures about income taxes paid. ASU 2023-09 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2025. The Company has adopted this guidance prospectively which did not have a material impact to its consolidated financial statements or financial statement disclosures. See Note 13 - Income Taxes for further information.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

NOTE 3 - CONSOLIDATION

 

The Company has evaluated its loans, investments in unconsolidated entities, guarantees and other financial contracts in order to determine if they are variable interests in VIEs. The Company regularly monitors these legal interests and contracts and, to the extent it has determined that it has a variable interest, analyzes the related entity for potential consolidation.

 

Investments in Consolidated Variable Interest Entities

 

The Company consolidates entities in which the Company has a variable interest and, as the investment manager, has both the power to direct the most significant activities and a potentially significant economic interest. Investments in the consolidated VIEs are reported at fair value and represent the Company’s maximum exposure to loss.

 

ACRES Holdings, LLC is considered and treated as a VIE because the Company directs the significant activities of the entity and not the holders of equity at risk. The Company concluded its interest in ACRES Holdings, LLC represented a potentially significant economic interest and the Company represented the primary beneficiary of ACRES Holdings, LLC. As a result, the Company consolidated ACRES Holdings, LLC as of July 23, 2025 and continues to be consolidated as of December 31, 2025.

 

AMF is considered and treated as a VIE because the investors of AMF, who are unaffiliated with the Company, do not have substantive rights to impact the ongoing governance and operating activities of AMF, including the ability to remove the Company as the investment manager without cause. The Company concluded its interest in AMF represented a potentially significant economic interest and the Company represented the primary beneficiary of AMF. As a result, the Company consolidated AMF as of and for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024.

 

Investments in Non-Consolidated Variable Interest Entities (the Company is not the primary beneficiary, but has a variable interest)

 

Based on management’s analysis, the Company is not the primary beneficiary of the VIEs discussed below since it does not have both (i) the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the VIEs’ economic performance and (ii) the obligation to absorb the losses of the VIEs or the right to receive the benefits from the VIEs, which could be significant to the VIEs. Accordingly, the following VIEs are not consolidated in the Company’s financial statements at December 31, 2025. The Company continuously reassesses whether it is deemed to be the primary beneficiary of its unconsolidated VIEs.

 

The Company completed a qualitative analysis to determine whether it is the primary beneficiary of ACRES SPV LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, and determined that it was not the primary beneficiary as of December 31, 2025 and 2024.

NOTE 5 – RESTRICTED CASH

 

The Company maintains loan expense deposits collected from prospective borrowers used to offset underwriting expenses associated with originating loans. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, loan expense deposits amounted to $1.3 million and $0.8 million, respectively. Loan escrow and expense deposits are segregated in bank accounts held outside of corporate assets and are reflected as restricted cash on the consolidated balance sheets.

 

The Company is required to maintain certain deposits in escrow for, among other purposes, interest, taxes, insurance, and construction reserves under the underlying mortgage loan agreements serviced by the Company. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company held total escrow balances of approximately $35.8 million and $15.0 million, respectively, which are not included on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. These escrows are maintained in separate accounts at federally insured depository institutions, which may exceed FDIC insured limits.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

 

The aggregate market value of the Company’s investment in ACR as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, based on quoted market prices, was $14.3 million and $7.2 million respectively. The Company possesses the ability to exercise significant influence, but not control, over the operating and financial policies of ACR and, therefore, accounts for its investment in ACR using the equity method of accounting. The Company elected the fair value option for its equity method investment in ACR and determines the fair value of its equity investment using the closing price of ACR’s common shares as of the end of the period, which was a Level 1 fair value input, and recorded changes in fair value in earnings on the Company’s consolidated statement of income. The unrealized gains on the Company’s consolidated statements of income related to the Company’s investment in ACR was $3.5 million and $2.4 million for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. During the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 the Company received no distributions from ACR.

NOTE 8 - LEASES

 

The Company has operating leases for office space and office equipment. The leases have terms that expire between December 2027 and June 2032. The leases on the office space and office equipment contain options for early termination granted to the Company and the lessor. Lease payments are determined as follows:

 

Office space: payments are made on a fixed schedule, escalating annually, and include the Company’s responsibility for a percentage of increases in the building’s property taxes and operating expenses over the base year.

 

Office equipment: payments are made on a fixed schedule.

NOTE 9 - FAIR VALUE

 

The Company uses valuation techniques that are consistent with the market approach, the income approach and/or the cost approach to measure assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value. Inputs to valuation techniques refer to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Inputs may be observable, meaning those that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from independent sources, or unobservable, meaning those that reflect the reporting entity's own assumptions about the inputs market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. In that regard, accounting standards establish a fair value hierarchy for valuation inputs that gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs.

The fair value hierarchy is as follows:

 

Level 1 - Assets and liabilities whose values are based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities that the Company has the ability to access.
Level 2 - Assets and liabilities whose values are based on inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These might include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (such as interest rates, volatilities, prepayment speeds, credit risks, etc.) or inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by market data by correlation or other means.
Level 3 - Assets and liabilities whose values are based on inputs that are both unobservable and significant to the overall valuation.

 

F-27


Table of Contents

ACRES CAPITAL CORP.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

 

In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, the Company categorizes such financial asset or liability based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability that a market participant would use.

 

The following is a description of the valuation methodologies used to measure fair value, as well as the general classification of such instruments pursuant to the fair value hierarchy:

 

Investments in equity affiliate related to ACR. Investments in equity affiliate, at fair value – related party includes ACR common shares held by the Company that are estimated using the closing price of ACR common shares, a Level 1 fair value input, as of the reporting period end date. The Company’s equity method investment in ACR is classified within Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy.

 

Derivative liabilities. Derivative liabilities are recorded at fair value and classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of derivative liabilities are comprised of the fair value of common stock warrant liabilities and the fair value of embedded derivatives. The fair value of common stock warrant liabilities and embedded derivatives are determined using valuations obtained from a third party that specializes in providing valuations of such financial liabilities. The third party utilized the Black-Scholes-Merton multiple option approach to determine the fair value of the common stock warrant liabilities and the discounted cash flow approach to determine the fair value of the embedded derivatives.

 

The fair values of the Company’s short-term financial instruments, such as (i) cash and cash equivalents, (ii) restricted cash, (iii) accrued interest, servicing receivables and other assets, (iv) due from related parties, (v) accrued interest, accounts payable and other liabilities, and (vi) due to related parties approximate their carrying values on the consolidated balance sheet due to their terms, liquidity, or short-term nature.

the maximum borrowings to $163.0 million. As of December 31, 2024, advances on the facility aggregated $163.0 million. During the period of January 1, 2025 to July 23, 2025 and the year ended December 31, 2024, interest was paid on a quarterly basis on the outstanding principal amount of the advances at a rate per annum equal to a cash interest rate ranging from 8.00% to 10.00% depending on certain covenant requirements. The capitalized (paid-in-kind) interest rate ranged from 4.25% to 4.75% depending on certain covenant requirements. At December 31, 2024, the cash and capitalized (paid-in-kind) interest rate was 8.00% and 4.25%. For the period of January 1, 2025 to July 23, 2025 and the year ended December 31, 2024, total cash interest incurred on advances amounted to $8.3 million and $14.1 million, respectively, of which $3.3 million is payable to the Lenders and recorded as accrued interest, accounts payable and other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2024. No such amounts were payable as of December 31, 2025. As of December 31, 2024, total capitalized interest of $7.9 million was added to the outstanding debt balance. The lenders on the facility were entitled to receive warrants to purchase common stock of the Company as advances were issued under the facility or under anti-dilution protection provisions. As of December 31, 2024, warrants to purchase 190,801 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.01 per share and 177,120 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $15.80 per share were outstanding. The credit facility matured on June 26, 2025. On July 23, 2025, the Company entered into the following transactions:

 

A subsidiary of the Company issued $33.0 million of preferred equity securities to a third party. The preferred equity securities contained certain embedded features that are not clearly and closely related to the host instrument and accounted for as a derivative liability (see Note 15 and 16). In connection with the subsidiary’s issuance of preferred equity securities, the Company issued warrants to purchase 312,524 shares of common stock of the Company at an exercise price of $0.01 to the third party. The Company accounted for the issuance of preferred equity securities as a redeemable interest with embedded derivatives accounted for as a derivative liability with an initial fair value of $1.4 million as of July 23, 2025. The Company accounted for the issuance of warrants as a derivative liability with an initial fair value of $10.9 million as of July 23, 2025. See Note 15 and 16.

 

The Company entered into a credit agreement with an insurance company to provide a $130.0 million credit facility. The Company drew upon the full credit facility and received $130.0 million of proceeds on July 23, 2025.

 

The proceeds of the $33.0 million preferred equity issuance and $130.0 million credit facility were utilized to partially paydown the $163.0 million credit facility. At July 23, 2025, prior to the partial paydown, the $163.0 million credit facility had an outstanding principal balance of $183.0 million inclusive of capitalized interest and an interest payable balance of $5.0 million. In connection with the paydown, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company entered into an earnout agreement with the existing lenders on the $163.0 million credit facility whereby the remaining outstanding balance of the $163.0 million credit facility and all warrants to purchase common stock of the Company held by the existing lenders, which were initially accounted for within the Company’s equity, were discharged/forfeited in exchange for the subsidiary’s agreement to pay the existing lenders an aggregate amount equal to $26.0 million, the earnout liability. The Company has accounted for this transaction as a troubled debt restructuring under ASC 470-60 and Company recorded a $3.6 million net gain on extinguishment of debt in the consolidated statements of income for the year ended December 31, 2025.

 

As of December 31, 2025, the Company has drawn $130.0 million on the $130.0 million credit facility. During 2025, interest was paid on a quarterly basis on the outstanding principal amount of the advances at the interest rate of 8.625%. For the year ended December 31, 2025, interest incurred on advances amounted to $5.0 million. No interest was payable as of December 31, 2025.

 

As of December 31, 2025, the earnout liability had an outstanding balance of $23.8 million and is recorded as borrowings on the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2025. The earnout liability does not accrue interest and has no set maturity date.

 

On June 18, 2020, the Company also received a $159,900 Economic Injury Disaster (EIDL) loan from the SBA. The annual interest rate is 3.75%, The payment term is 30 years, and the monthly payment of principal and interest is $731 starting December 18, 2022.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

 

As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, total gross deferred tax assets, net of deferred tax liabilities and prior to valuation allowances amounted to $13.8 million and $11.8 million, respectively, and primarily related to tax timing differences associated with basis differences in equity investment assets, net operating loss carryforward, and interest expenses disallowed under Section 163(j).

 

At December 31, 2025, the Company had $27.8 million of total gross federal and $0.5 million of total gross state and local net operating and capital tax loss carryforwards. At December 31, 2024, the Company had $35.6 million of total gross federal and $0.4 million of total gross state and local net operating tax loss carryforwards. Federal net operating tax loss carryforwards have an indefinite expiration date.

 

The Company assessed all available evidence, both positive and negative, to determine whether, based on the weight of that evidence, a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets is needed. On the basis of this evaluation, a valuation allowance of $14.7 million and $12.9 million has been recorded against the deferred tax assets at December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, as it is not more likely than not that these assets would be realized. Management will continue to assess the realization of the amount of deferred tax assets and related valuation allowance based on all available information.

 

The Company is subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service for calendar years including and subsequent to 2022 and is subject to examination by state and local jurisdictions for calendar years including and subsequent to 2022.

 

The Company evaluates its tax positions to evaluate whether it is more likely than not that such positions would be sustained upon examination upon by a tax authority for all open tax years, as defined by the statute of limitations, based on their technical merits. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company has not established a liability for uncertain tax positions.

NOTE 16 - DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS

 

The Company recognizes derivative instruments as either assets or liabilities on the balance sheet and measures them at fair value in accordance with applicable accounting guidance. The Company evaluates its financing arrangements to determine whether certain arrangements contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives requiring bifurcation in accordance with ASC 815. Embedded derivatives that are required to be bifurcated from the host instrument or arrangement are accounted for and valued as separate financial instruments.

 

The Company’s derivative liabilities consists of freestanding warrants and certain embedded features that are not clearly and closely related to the host instrument to be bifurcated and recorded at the fair value as derivative liabilities.

The fair value of derivative liabilities are measured at each reporting date, with changes in fair value recorded in the consolidated statements of income as a derivative gain (loss). The Company engaged an independent financial advisory firm to estimate the fair value of derivative liabilities using valuation methodologies that incorporate both observable and unobservable inputs.

 

As of December 31, 2025, the fair value of derivative liabilities are $9.2 million as compared to $12.3 million as of July 23, 2025 (initial date of recognition). For the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company recognized a gain of $3.1 million related to the change in fair value of derivative liabilities.

ACRES CAPITAL CORP.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

June 30, 2026

(unaudited)

 

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION

 

ACRES Capital Corp., a Delaware corporation, along with its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”), is a private lender dedicated to nationwide middle-market commercial real estate (“CRE”) lending in the United States (“U.S.”). The Company conducts its operations through the use of subsidiaries that it consolidates into its financial statements. Substantially all of the Company’s operations are conducted through ACRES Capital LLC (the “Operating Subsidiary”), a wholly owned subsidiary that is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission as an investment adviser. The Operating Subsidiary serves as the investment manager of ACRES Mortgage Fund, Ltd. (“AMF”), an exempted company under the laws of the Cayman Islands formed for the purpose of investing in CRE mortgage loans. The Operating Subsidiary also serves as the manager of ACRES Commercial Realty Corp. (“ACR”), a Maryland corporation. ACR is a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) that is primarily focused on originating, holding, and managing CRE mortgage loans and other commercial real estate related debt investments.

 

On July 23, 2025, the Company contributed substantially all of its assets, including its interests in the Operating Subsidiary, and liabilities to ACRES Holdings, LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary, in exchange for membership interests in ACRES Holdings, LLC. Contemporaneously with this contribution, ACRES Holdings, LLC issued preferred equity securities to a third party. As a result, the Company holds substantially all of its assets and liabilities through ACRES Holdings, LLC, a consolidated variable interest entity. See Note 3.

 

The Company consolidates AMF in the accompanying financial statements (the “Consolidated Fund”) (the Company, excluding the Consolidated Fund, the “Consolidated Company Entities”). Including the results of the Consolidated Fund significantly increases the reported amounts of the assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and cash flows within the accompanying consolidated financial statements; however, the Consolidated Fund results included herein have no direct effect on the net income attributable to ACRES Capital Corp. or to its stockholders’ deficit. Instead, economic ownership interests of the third-party investors in the Consolidated Fund are reflected as non-controlling interests in the Consolidated Fund. Further, cash flows allocable to non-controlling interests in Consolidated Fund are specifically identifiable within the consolidated statements of cash flows.

 

On April 29, 2026, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with ACRES Holdings Sub LLC (“Merger Sub”), a subsidiary of ACR, pursuant to which the Company will be merged with and into Merger Sub, with Merger Sub surviving as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Merger”). As a result of the Merger, among other things, (i) ACR will acquire the Company, (ii) the Company will cease to perform any outside management services for ACR, (iii) the Company and ACR will terminate the existing management agreement between the parties (the acquisition of the management agreement in 2020 resulted in the initial recognition of the Company's goodwill asset), and (iv) ACR will become internally managed (the “Internalization”).

 

The closing of the Merger (the “Closing”) was approved by ACR’s shareholders at its annual meeting on June 22, 2026 and is expected to be completed in the third quarter 2026. In connection with the approval, and in accordance with the Merger Agreement, the unvested ACR equity-based awards were fully vested on June 22, 2026.

 

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, at Closing, (i) each outstanding share of common stock, $0.0001 par value per share, of the Company (“ACC Common Stock”) will be converted into the right to receive 2.61882 shares of common stock, $0.001 par value per share, of ACR (the “ACR Common Stock”) and (ii) the Fourth Amended and Restated Management Agreement, dated as of July 31, 2020, as amended, by and among the Company and ACR will terminate for no additional consideration. ACR expects to issue a maximum of approximately 7.487 million shares of ACR Common Stock at Closing (the “Stock Issuance”), the exact number of which will be determined based on the number of outstanding shares of ACC Common Stock immediately prior to the Closing.

 

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“GAAP”). The Company’s Consolidated Fund is an investment company under GAAP based on the following characteristics: the Consolidated Fund obtains funds from one or more investors and the Consolidated Fund’s business purpose and substantive activities are investing funds for returns from investment income. Therefore, investments of the Consolidated Fund are recorded at fair value and the unrealized gain (loss) in an investment’s fair value is recognized on a current basis within the consolidated statements of operations. In the preparation of these consolidated financial statements, the Company has retained the investment company accounting for the Consolidated Fund under GAAP.

G-7


ACRES CAPITAL CORP.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

June 30, 2026

(unaudited)

 

 

All of the investments held by the Consolidated Fund are presented at their estimated fair values within the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Net income attributable to the economic ownership interest of the third-party investors in the Consolidated Fund are presented within net income attributable to non-controlling interest in Consolidated Fund within the consolidated statements of operations.

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, majority-owned or controlled subsidiaries and variable interest entities (“VIEs”) for which the Company is considered the primary beneficiary. All inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Variable Interest Entities

 

A VIE is defined as an entity in which equity investors (i) do not have 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. A VIE is required to be consolidated by its primary beneficiary, which is defined as the party that (a) has the power to control the activities that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance and (b) has the obligation to absorb losses of the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE.

 

The Company considers the following criteria in determining whether an entity is a VIE:

 

1.
The equity investment at risk is not sufficient to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support provided by any parties, including the equity holders; or

 

2.
The equity investors lack one or more of the following essential characteristics of a controlling financial interest:

 

a.
The direct ability to make decisions about the entity’s activities through voting rights or similar rights;

 

b.
The obligation to absorb the expected losses of the entity; or

 

c.
The right to receive the expected residual returns of the entity. The equity investors have voting rights that are not proportionate to their economic interests, and the activities of the entity involve or are conducted on behalf of an investor with a disproportionately small voting interest.

 

In determining whether the Company is the primary beneficiary of a VIE, the Company reviews governing contracts, formation documents and any other contractual arrangements to determine the activities that have the most significant impact on the VIE and which entity has the power to direct those activities. The Company also looks for kick-out rights, protective rights, and participating rights as well as any financial or other support provided to the VIE and the reason for that support, and the terms of any explicit or implicit arrangements that may require the Company to provide future support. The Company then makes a determination based on its power to direct the most significant activities of the VIE and/or a financial interest that is potentially significant. In instances when a VIE is owned by both the Company and related parties, the Company considers whether there is a single party in the related party group that meets both the power and losses or benefits criteria on its own as though no related party relationship existed. If one party within the related party group meets both these criteria, such reporting entity is the primary beneficiary of the VIE. If no party within the related party group on its own meets both the power and losses or benefits criteria, but the related party group as a whole meets these two criteria, the determination of primary beneficiary within the related party group is based upon an analysis of the facts and circumstances with the objective of determining which party is most closely associated with the VIE. Determining the primary beneficiary requires significant judgment. The Company continuously analyzes entities in which it holds variable interests to identify reconsideration events and determine whether such entities are VIEs and whether such potential VIEs should be consolidated or deconsolidated.

 

Voting Interest Entities

 

A voting interest entity is an entity in which the total equity investment at risk is sufficient to enable it to finance its activities independently and the equity holders have the power to direct the activities of the entity that most significantly impact its economic

G-8


ACRES CAPITAL CORP.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

June 30, 2026

(unaudited)

 

performance, the obligation to absorb the losses of the entity and the right to receive the residual returns of the entity. The usual condition for a controlling financial interest in a voting interest entity is ownership of a majority voting interest. If the Company has a majority voting interest in a voting interest entity, the entity will generally be consolidated.

 

The Company performs on-going reassessments of whether entities previously evaluated under the voting interest framework have become VIEs, based on certain events, and therefore subject to the VIE consolidation framework.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and within the period of financial results. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase. Cash and cash equivalents held at the Consolidated Fund represents cash that, although not legally restricted, is not available to support the general liquidity needs of the Company, as the use of such amounts is generally limited to the activities of the Consolidated Fund.

 

As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company had cash balances with financial institutions in excess of Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insured limits. The Company monitors the credit standing of these financial institutions.

 

Restricted Cash

 

Restricted cash of the Consolidated Company Entities consists of deposits received from potential new borrowers. The Company maintains loan expense deposits collected from prospective borrowers used to offset underwriting expenses associated with originating loans. Restricted cash of the Consolidated Fund consists of amounts that are held by commercial real estate debt securitizations.

 

Redeemable Interest

 

Redeemable interest in the Company represents preferred equity securities issued by a subsidiary of the Company to a third party. Income (loss) is allocated based on the preferred return attributable to the redeemable interest. At each balance sheet date, the carrying value of the redeemable interest is presented at the redemption amount, to the extent that the redemption amount exceeds the initial measurement on the date of issuance. The Company recognizes changes in the redemption amount with corresponding adjustments against retained earnings, or additional paid-in-capital in the absence of retained earnings, within stockholders’ deficit within the consolidated balance sheets.

 

Derivative Instruments

Derivative financial instruments are recorded in the accompanying balance sheets at fair value in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 815. When the Company enters into a financial instrument such as a debt or equity agreement (the “host contract”), the Company assesses whether the economic characteristics of any embedded features are clearly and closely related to the primary economic characteristics of the remainder of the host contract. When it is determined that (i) an embedded feature possesses economic characteristics that are not clearly and closely related to the primary economic characteristics of the host contract, and (ii) a separate, stand-alone instrument with the same terms would meet the definition of a financial derivative instrument, then the embedded feature is bifurcated from the host contract and accounted for as a derivative instrument. The estimated fair value of the derivative feature is recorded in the accompanying balance sheets separately from the carrying value of the host contract. Subsequent changes in the estimated fair value of derivatives are recorded as a gain or loss in the Company’s statements of operations.

 

The Company concluded the redeemable interest preferred equity securities host contract contained features that required bifurcation and separate accounting under ASC 815. See Note 16.

 

Warrants

G-9


ACRES CAPITAL CORP.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

June 30, 2026

(unaudited)

 

 

The Company accounts for warrants as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the warrant’s specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance in ASC 480 and ASC 815. The assessment considers whether the warrants are freestanding financial instruments pursuant to ASC 480, meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480, and whether the warrants meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815, including whether the warrants are indexed to the Company’s own common stock, among other conditions for equity classification. This assessment, which requires the use of professional judgment, is conducted at the time of warrant issuance and as of each subsequent quarterly period end date while the warrants are outstanding.

 

For issued or modified warrants that meet all of the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be recorded as a component of additional paid-in capital at the time of issuance. For issued or modified warrants that do not meet all the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be recorded at their initial fair value on the date of issuance, and each consolidated balance sheet date thereafter. Changes in the estimated fair value of the warrants are recognized as a gain or loss on the consolidated statements of operations.

 

The Company determined that upon further review of the warrant agreements, the Company concluded that its warrants qualify for liability accounting treatment.

 

Issuance Costs Related to Equity and Debt

 

The Company allocates issuance costs between the individual freestanding instruments identified on the same basis as proceeds were allocated. Issuance costs associated with the issuance of redeemable interests (i.e., temporary equity-classified stock) are recorded as a charge against the gross proceeds of the offering and amortized over the earliest estimable redemption date. Any issuance costs associated with the issuance of liability-classified warrants are expensed as incurred. Issuance costs associated with the issuance of debt are recorded as a direct reduction of the carrying amount of the debt liability. The Company accounts for debt as liabilities measured at amortized cost and amortizes the resulting debt discount to interest expense using the effective interest method over the expected term of the notes pursuant to ASC 835.

 

Non-Controlling Interests

 

The non-controlling interests in Consolidated Fund represents a component of equity and net income attributable to ownership interests that third-party investors hold in the Consolidated Fund.

 

Troubled Debt Restructuring

When the Company modifies or extinguishes debt, it first evaluates whether the modification qualifies as a troubled debt restructuring (“TDR”) under ASC 470-60. As per ASC 470-60, a TDR refers to a situation where the creditor grants concessions to a borrower experiencing financial difficulties. A lender is deemed to have granted a concession if the borrower’s effective interest rate on the restructured debt is less than the effective interest rate of the old debt immediately before the restructuring. Such restructuring is done with the intent to provide relief to the borrower and to maximize the potential for payable recovery by the lender.

 

In accordance with ASC 470-60, when the total future cash payments under the new terms are less than the carrying amount of the payable at the date of restructuring, the difference between the carrying amount and the total future cash payments is recognized as a gain on extinguishment of debt in the consolidated financial statements. This gain is recorded immediately in the period the restructuring occurs. If the total future cash payments under the new terms exceed the carrying amount of the debt at the date of restructuring, no adjustment to the carrying amount of the debt is made. Instead, the Company calculates a new effective interest rate (“EIR”) based on the revised terms of the restructured debt. The debt is then amortized over the remaining term of the debt using the new EIR, with interest expense recognized based on such rate in future periods.

 

If a TDR is determined not to have occurred, the Company evaluates the modification in accordance with ASC 470-50-40, which requires modification to debt instruments to be evaluated to assess whether the modifications are considered “substantial modifications”. A substantial modification of terms is accounted for like an extinguishment.

 

Income Earned from Fee-Based Services

 

G-10


ACRES CAPITAL CORP.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

June 30, 2026

(unaudited)

 

Income from fee-based services includes asset management fees, development fees, ACR management fees, servicing fees, and incentive fees. Asset management fees, development fees, and servicing fees are included in management and servicing fees, net on the consolidated statements of operations. ACR management fees are included in management and servicing fees, net – related party on the consolidated statements of operations. Incentive fees are included in incentive fees on the consolidated statements of operations. Incentive fees are earned when specified financial hurdles are met for certain separately managed accounts and ACR. Revenues from fee-based services that the Company provides are recognized as earned over time in accordance with contractual agreements. The services the Company provides represent performance obligations that are satisfied over time.

 

ACR management fees

 

The Company earns a monthly base management fee equal to 1/12th of the amount of ACR’s equity (as defined in the management agreement) multiplied by 1.50%. Such base management fees are included in management and servicing fees, net - related party on the consolidated statements of operations.

 

The Company may terminate the management agreement at its option: (A) in the event that ACR defaults in the performance or observance of any material term, condition or covenant contained in the management agreement and such default continues for a period of 30 days after written notice thereof, or (B) without payment of a termination fee by ACR, if ACR becomes regulated as an investment company under the Investment Company Act, with such termination deemed to occur immediately before such event.

The ACR management agreement’s current contract term ends on July 31, 2026, and the agreement provides for automatic one-year renewals on such date and on each July 31 thereafter until terminated. The management agreement may be terminated upon the affirmative vote of at least two-thirds of ACR’s independent directors, or by the affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the outstanding shares of ACR’s common stock, based upon unsatisfactory performance that is materially detrimental to ACR or a determination by ACR’s independent directors that the management fees payable to the Company are not fair, subject to the Company’s right to prevent such a compensation termination by accepting a mutually acceptable reduction of management fees. ACR’s Board must provide 180 days’ prior notice of any such termination. If ACR terminates the management agreement, the Company is entitled to a termination fee equal to four times the sum of the average annual base management fee and the average annual incentive compensation earned by the Company during the two 12-month periods immediately preceding the date of termination, calculated as of the end of the most recently completed fiscal quarter before the date of termination. ACR may also terminate the management agreement for cause with 30 days’ prior written notice from ACR’s Board. No termination fee is payable in the event of a termination for cause (as defined in the management agreement).

 

ACR incentive fees (management agreement)

 

The Company earns an incentive fee calculated and payable in arrears in an amount, not less than zero, equal to the excess of (1) the product of (a) 20% and (b) the excess of (i) Earnings Available for Distribution (“EAD”) (as defined in the management agreement) of ACR for the previous 12-month period, over (ii) the product of (A) ACR’s book value equity in the previous 12-month period, and (B) 7% per annum, over (2) the sum of any incentive compensation paid to the Company with respect to the first three calendar quarters of such previous 12-month period; provided, however, that no incentive compensation shall be payable with respect to any calendar quarter unless EAD for the 12 most recently completed calendar quarters (or such lesser number of completed calendar quarters from September 30, 2022) in the aggregate is greater than zero.

 

Incentive compensation is calculated and payable quarterly to the Company to the extent it is earned. Up to 75% of the incentive compensation is payable in cash and at least 25% is payable in the form of an award of common stock of ACR. The Company may elect to receive more than 25% of its incentive compensation in common stock. All shares are fully vested upon issuance; however, the Company may not sell such shares for one year after the incentive compensation becomes due and payable unless the management agreement is terminated.

 

ACR incentive fees (Manager Incentive Plan)

 

In June 2021, the shareholders of ACR approved the ACR Manager Incentive Plan (“MIP”). The MIP provides for the issuance of ACR equity-based awards to the Company when certain ACR book value targets are met. Such awards vest over four years. The Company initially measures such grants at fair value on the grant date and recognizes income monthly on a straight-line basis over the service period to Incentive fees – related party on the consolidated statements of operations.

 

Reimbursable Compensation and Benefits

G-11


ACRES CAPITAL CORP.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

June 30, 2026

(unaudited)

 

 

Reimbursable compensation and benefits include reimbursements, at cost, which arise primarily from the services employees of the Company provide pursuant to the ACR management agreement that are charged to ACR. The Company recognizes the revenue for reimbursements when the Company incurs the related reimbursable compensation and benefits and other costs on behalf of ACR.

 

Other Reimbursable Expenses

 

Other reimbursable expenses include reimbursements that arise from out-of-pocket expenses and certain other costs incurred by the Company that related directly to ACR’s operations or other reimbursable activity. The Company has determined that it controls the services provided by third parties for ACR and therefore the Company accounts for the cost of these services and the related reimbursement revenue on a gross basis.

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company accounts for its income taxes under the asset and liability method, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined on the basis of the differences between the financial statements and tax basis of assets and liabilities by using the enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which differences are expected to reverse. The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

 

The Company recognizes deferred tax assets to the extent that it believes that these assets are more likely than not to be realized. In making such a determination, the Company considers material positive and negative evidence, including results of recent operations, income in the carryback period, future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, tax-planning strategies, and projected future taxable income. A valuation allowance is recorded to the extent the more-likely-than-not threshold is not met. If a valuation allowance is recorded and it is subsequently determined that the Company would be able to realize any portion of its deferred tax assets in the future in excess of their net recorded amount, an adjustment would be made to the deferred tax asset valuation allowance, which would reduce the provision for income taxes. Uncertain tax positions are recorded in accordance with ASC 740 on the basis of a two-step process in which (1) it is determined whether it is more likely than not that the tax positions will be sustained on the basis of the technical merits of the position and (2) for those tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold, the largest amount of tax benefit.

 

Investments in Equity Affiliate

 

The Company utilizes the equity method to account for investments when it possesses the ability to exercise significant influence, but not control, over the operating and financial policies of the investee. The ability to exercise significant influence is presumed when the investor possesses more than 20% of the voting interests of the investee. This presumption may be overcome based on specific facts and circumstances that demonstrate that the ability to exercise significant influence is restricted. The Company elected the fair value option for its equity method investment and determines fair value using the closing price of common shares as of the end of the period. The Company recognizes the unrealized and realized gains and losses on equity investments on the consolidated statements of operations as income from investments in equity affiliate - related party.

 

Goodwill

 

Goodwill represents the costs of business acquisitions in excess of the fair value of identifiable net assets acquired. The Company evaluates the recoverability of goodwill annually on the first day of the Company’s fiscal fourth quarter of each fiscal year, or more frequently, if events or changes in circumstances indicate that goodwill might be impaired. If the Company’s review indicates that the carrying amount of goodwill exceeds its fair value, the Company will reduce the carrying amount of goodwill to fair value. Based on the impairment tests performed as of October 1, 2025, there were no indications that goodwill was impaired and nor were there events or changes in circumstances indicating impairment at June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025.

 

Leases

 

Arrangements are evaluated to identify leases at inception. The right to use an underlying asset for the lease term is recorded as operating lease right-of-use ("ROU") assets and obligations to make lease payments arising from the lease are recorded as lease liabilities. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. Lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company

will exercise that option. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. At the adoption date, the Company made an accounting policy election to exclude leases with an initial term of twelve months or less.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

Issuances of options to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock are initially measured at fair value on the grant date and expensed monthly on a straight-line basis over the service period to equity compensation expense on the consolidated statements of operations, with a corresponding entry to additional paid-in capital on the consolidated balance sheets. In accordance with GAAP, the fair value of all unvested issuances of restricted stock and options is not remeasured after the initial grant date. The Company accounts for forfeitures of employee awards as they occur. As a result, the Company records compensation cost assuming all option holders will complete the requisite service period. If an employee forfeits an award because they fail to complete the requisite service period, the Company will reverse compensation cost previously recognized in the period the award is forfeited.

 

Reclassifications

 

Certain reclassifications have been made to prior year’s financial information to conform to the June 30, 2026 presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on net loss or total equity.

 

NOTE 3 - CONSOLIDATION

 

The Company has evaluated its loans, investments in unconsolidated entities, guarantees and other financial contracts in order to determine if they are variable interests in VIEs. The Company regularly monitors these legal interests and contracts and, to the extent it has determined that it has a variable interest, analyzes the related entity for potential consolidation.

 

Investments in Consolidated Variable Interest Entities

 

The Company consolidates entities in which the Company has a variable interest and, as the investment manager, has both the power to direct the most significant activities and a potentially significant economic interest. Investments in the consolidated VIEs are reported at fair value and represent the Company’s maximum exposure to loss.

 

ACRES Holdings, LLC is considered and treated as a VIE because the Company directs the significant activities of the entity and not the holders of equity at risk. The Company concluded its interest in ACRES Holdings, LLC represented a potentially significant economic interest and the Company represented the primary beneficiary of ACRES Holdings, LLC. As a result, the Company consolidated ACRES Holdings, LLC as of July 23, 2025 and it continues to be consolidated as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025.

 

AMF is considered and treated as a VIE because the investors of AMF, who are unaffiliated with the Company, do not have substantive rights to impact the ongoing governance and operating activities of AMF, including the ability to remove the Company as the investment manager without cause. The Company concluded its interest in AMF represented a potentially significant economic interest and the Company represented the primary beneficiary of AMF. As a result, the Company consolidated AMF as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025.

 

Investments in Non-Consolidated Variable Interest Entities (the Company is not the primary beneficiary, but has a variable interest)

 

Based on management’s analysis, the Company is not the primary beneficiary of the VIEs discussed below since it does not have both (i) the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the VIEs’ economic performance and (ii) the obligation to absorb the losses of the VIEs or the right to receive the benefits from the VIEs, which could be significant to the VIEs. Accordingly, the following VIEs are not consolidated in the Company’s financial statements at June 30, 2026. The Company continuously reassesses whether it is deemed to be the primary beneficiary of its unconsolidated VIEs.

 

The Company completed a qualitative analysis to determine whether it is the primary beneficiary of ACRES SPV LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, and determined that it was not the primary beneficiary as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025. ACRES SPV LLC is considered and treated as a VIE due to a lack of sufficient equity. The Company (including related parties) are not deemed to be the primary beneficiary of the VIE as the Company does not have the power to direct the activities most significant to ACRES SPV LLC which include the management of current investments and operating activity. Accordingly, ACRES SPV LLC is not consolidated into the Company’s consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025. The Company has no investment at risk as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025.

NOTE 5 – RESTRICTED CASH

 

The Company maintains loan expense deposits collected from prospective borrowers used to offset underwriting expenses associated with originating loans. As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, loan expense deposits amounted to $0.8 million and $1.3 million, respectively. Loan escrow and expense deposits are segregated in bank accounts held outside of corporate assets and are reflected as restricted cash on the consolidated balance sheets.

 

The Company is required to maintain certain deposits in escrow for, among other purposes, interest, taxes, insurance, and construction reserves under the underlying mortgage loan agreements serviced by the Company. As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company held total escrow balances of approximately $0.6 million and $35.8 million, respectively, which are not included on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. These escrows are maintained in separate accounts at federally insured depository institutions, which may exceed FDIC insured limits.

Such grants are subject to a four-year vesting period. On June 14, 2021 and May 6, 2022, the $21.00 and $24.00 book value targets, respectively, were met and ACRES Share Holdings, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, was granted 299,999 shares for each of the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, which vest 25% for four years, on each anniversary of the issuance date. On May 7, 2024, the $27.00 book value target was met and ACRES Share Holdings, LLC was granted 295,237 shares for the year ended December 31, 2024, which will vest 25% for four years, on each anniversary of the issuance date. On March 5, 2026, the $30.00 book value target was met and ACRES Share Holdings, LLC was granted 204,765 shares for the six months ended June 30, 2026, which will vest 25% for four years, on each anniversary of the issuance date. For each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, 501,195 shares and 223,810 shares, respectively, of ACR were vested.

The aggregate market value of the Company’s investment in ACR as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, based on quoted market prices, was $20.8 million and $14.3 million, respectively. The Company possesses the ability to exercise significant influence, but not control, over the operating and financial policies of ACR and, therefore, accounts for its investment in ACR using the equity method of accounting. The Company elected the fair value option for its equity method investment in ACR and determines the fair value of its equity investment using the closing price of ACR’s common shares as of the end of the period, which was a Level 1 fair value input, and recorded changes in fair value in earnings on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. The unrealized gains (losses) on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations related to the Company’s investment in ACR was ($0.3) million and ($1.3) million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively and ($1.6) million and $1.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company received no distributions from ACR.

NOTE 9 - FAIR VALUE

 

The Company uses valuation techniques that are consistent with the market approach, the income approach and/or the cost approach to measure assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value. Inputs to valuation techniques refer to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Inputs may be observable, meaning those that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from independent sources, or unobservable, meaning those that reflect the reporting entity's own assumptions about the inputs market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. In that regard, accounting standards establish a fair value hierarchy for valuation inputs that gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs.

The fair value hierarchy is as follows:

 

Level 1 - Assets and liabilities whose values are based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and

G-25


ACRES CAPITAL CORP.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

June 30, 2026

(unaudited)

 

liabilities that the Company has the ability to access.
Level 2 - Assets and liabilities whose values are based on inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These might include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (such as interest rates, volatilities, prepayment speeds, credit risks, etc.) or inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by market data by correlation or other means.
Level 3 - Assets and liabilities whose values are based on inputs that are both unobservable and significant to the overall valuation.

 

In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, the Company categorizes such financial asset or liability based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability that a market participant would use.

 

The following is a description of the valuation methodologies used to measure fair value, as well as the general classification of such instruments pursuant to the fair value hierarchy:

 

Investments, at fair value. Investments, at fair value, are recorded at fair value and classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of investments, at fair value, are determined using valuations obtained from a third party that specializes in providing valuations of such financial assets.

 

Investments in equity affiliate related to ACR. Investments in equity affiliate, at fair value – related party includes ACR common shares held by the Company that are estimated using the closing price of ACR common shares, a Level 1 fair value input, as of the reporting period end date. The Company’s equity method investment in ACR is classified within Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy.

 

Derivative liabilities. Derivative liabilities are recorded at fair value and classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of derivative liabilities are comprised of the fair value of common stock warrant liabilities and the fair value of embedded derivatives. The fair value of common stock warrant liabilities and embedded derivatives are determined using valuations obtained from a third party that specializes in providing valuations of such financial liabilities. The third party utilized the Black-Scholes-Merton multiple option approach to determine the fair value of the common stock warrant liabilities and the discounted cash flow approach to determine the fair value of the embedded derivatives.

 

The fair values of the Company’s short-term financial instruments, such as (i) cash and cash equivalents, (ii) restricted cash, (iii) accrued interest, servicing receivables and other assets, (iv) due from related parties, (v) accrued interest, accounts payable and other liabilities, and (vi) due to related parties approximate their carrying values on the consolidated balance sheet due to their terms, liquidity, or short-term nature.

The Company entered into a credit agreement, dated June 26, 2018, with several investment management firms to provide a maximum credit facility of $140.0 million. On July 1, 2020, this facility was amended to increase the maximum borrowings to $163.0 million. During the period of January 1, 2025 to July 23, 2025, interest was paid on a quarterly basis on the outstanding principal amount of the advances at a rate per annum equal to a cash interest rate ranging from 8.00% to 10.00% depending on certain covenant requirements. The capitalized (paid-in-kind) interest rate ranged from 4.25% to 4.75% depending on certain covenant requirements. For the period of January 1, 2025 to July 23, 2025, total cash interest incurred on advances amounted to $8.3 million. The lenders on the facility were entitled to receive warrants to purchase common stock of the Company as advances were issued under the facility or under anti-dilution protection provisions. As of July 23, 2025, warrants to purchase 190,801 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.01 per share and 177,120 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $15.80 per share were outstanding. The credit facility matured on June 26, 2025. On July 23, 2025, the Company entered into the following transactions:

 

A subsidiary of the Company issued $33.0 million of preferred equity securities to a third party. The preferred equity securities contained certain embedded features that are not clearly and closely related to the host instrument and accounted for as a derivative liability (see Note 15 and 16). In connection with the subsidiary’s issuance of preferred equity securities, the Company issued warrants to purchase 312,524 shares of common stock of the Company at an exercise price of $0.01 to the third party.

The proceeds of the $33.0 million preferred equity issuance and $130.0 million credit facility were utilized to partially paydown the $163.0 million credit facility.

NOTE 11 - EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS

 

401k Plan

 

The Company’s employees participate in the 401(k)-plan sponsored by ACRES Capital LLC. All eligible employees may elect to contribute to the plan. Participants are entitled, upon termination or retirement, to their vested portions of the assets held by a trustee. The Company matches a portion of the employees’ 401(k)-plan contributions, which vests immediately. For each of the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, the plan expense for the Company was $0.1 million and is recorded in compensation and benefits on the consolidated statements of operations. For each of the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, the plan expense for the Company was $0.1 million and $0.2 million, respectively, and is recorded in compensation and benefits on the consolidated statements of operations.

 

Equity Compensation Plan

 

In June 2018, the Company’s shareholders approved the ACRES Capital Corp. 2018 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), an equity compensation plan that provides for the issuance of options to purchase shares of common stock of the Company. The options vest on the fourth anniversary and expire on the tenth anniversary of the grant date. In December 2023, the Company’s shareholders approved an amendment to the Plan to increase the number of shares of common stock authorized for issuance by an additional 100,000 shares. In July 2025, as a result of unanimous written consent of the Board of Directors of the Company, the Company increased the number of shares of common stock authorized for issuance by an additional 388,609 shares. The maximum number of shares that may be subject to awards granted under the Plan will be 991,745 shares of common stock.

 

On March 4, 2026, non-vesting options to purchase 250,000 shares of common stock of the Company were issued at a strike price of $15.00. The Company also modified existing options to purchase 479,750 shares of common stock of the Company to revise the strike price to $15.00 and designate the options as immediately exercisable.

 

On March 4, 2026, options to purchase 843,750 shares of common stock of the Company were exercised resulting in the issuance of 843,750 shares of common stock of the Company to option holders. In connection with the exercise of the options, the Company provided loans of $11.2 million to existing shareholders and certain members of management of the Company to finance the acquisition of common stock of the Company under option agreements. Such loans were accounted for as stock options. The transactions resulted in the Company recognizing additional equity compensation expense of $7.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026. No such loans were provided or transactions occurred for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025.

 

The Company recognized stock-based compensation expense of $0.5 million during the three months ended June 30, 2025. The Company did not recognize stock-based compensation expense during the three months ended June 30, 2026. The Company recognized stock-based compensation expense of $7.2 million and $0.9 million during the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively, related to stock options.

NOTE 16 - DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS

 

The Company recognizes derivative instruments as either assets or liabilities on the balance sheet and measures them at fair value in accordance with applicable accounting guidance. The Company evaluates its financing arrangements to determine whether certain arrangements contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives requiring bifurcation in accordance with ASC 815. Embedded derivatives that are required to be bifurcated from the host instrument or arrangement are accounted for and valued as separate financial instruments.

 

The Company’s derivative liabilities consists of freestanding warrants and certain embedded features that are not clearly and closely related to the host instrument to be bifurcated and recorded at the fair value as derivative liabilities.

The fair value of derivative liabilities are measured at each reporting date, with changes in fair value recorded in the consolidated statements of operations as a derivative gain (loss).

ACRES COMMERCIAL REALTY CORP.

ANNOUNCES COMPLETION OF MERGER, INTERNALIZATION AND PRIVATE NOTES OFFERING

 

Completion of Merger and Internalization

Uniondale, NY, August 6, 2026 -- ACRES Commercial Realty Corp. (NYSE: ACR) (the “ACR” or “Company”) announced today that it has completed its previously disclosed acquisition of ACRES Capital Corp. (“ACC”) in an all-stock transaction (the “Merger”) and transitioned from an externally-managed REIT to an internally-managed REIT (the “Internalization”). Upon closing of the Merger and Internalization, the Company issued approximately 7.5 million shares of ACR common stock to ACC stockholders as merger consideration and terminated the existing Management Agreement. The net increase in ACR common shares outstanding is approximately 6.3 million shares after giving effect to the elimination of ACR shares held by ACC in consolidation.

"The entire ACRES team is excited to have completed this transaction. Collectively, we will own over forty percent of ACR common shares and are highly motivated to drive value for all stakeholders. We believe this combination will enable the company to continue to meet the needs of our customers as they turn to ACRES for capital and service. We look forward to the next phase of growth for the company." said Andrew Fentress Chairman of the Board and Mark Fogel President of ACRES Commercial Realty Corp.

Private Offering of Senior Secured Notes

The Company also announced today that it has completed a private placement of $200 million of 8.625% Senior Secured Notes due 2031 (the “Notes”), pursuant to a Note Purchase Agreement between the Company, the Purchasers party thereto and UMB Bank, N.A. (the “Collateral Agent”). The Company intends to use a portion of the proceeds from the sale of the Notes to repay in full its $150 million of 5.75% Senior Unsecured Notes upon their maturity in August 2026, with the remaining portion used for general corporate purposes.

The Notes will mature on July 31, 2031 and will be secured on a first lien basis by the pledge of certain capital stock in its subsidiaries, residual equity interests in securitized financing vehicles and certain other CRE assets (the “Collateral”), and guaranteed by certain subsidiaries of the Company that granted security interests in the Collateral in favor of the Collateral Agent.

"We are pleased to announce the successful completion of this refinancing with Raymond James who has been a trusted advisor and partner since our acquisition of the ACR contract six years ago." said Andrew Fentress Chairman of the Board and Mark Fogel President of ACRES Commercial Realty Corp.
