known and unknown risks, uncertainties, assumptions and
contingencies, many of which are beyond our control, and may cause
actual results to differ significantly from those expressed in any
forward-looking statement. Among others, the following
uncertainties and other factors could cause actual results to
differ from those set forth in the forward-looking statements:
operating costs and business disruption may be greater than
expected; uncertainties regarding the ongoing impact of the novel
coronavirus (COVID-19) and its adverse impact on the real estate
market, the economy and the Company’s investments, financial
condition and business operation; the Company's operating results
may differ materially from the information presented in the
Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended
December 31, 2022, as well as in the Company’s other filings with
the Securities and Exchange Commission; the fair value of the
Company's investments may be subject to uncertainties (including
impacts associated with accelerating inflationary trends, recent
and potential further interest rate increases, the volatility of
interest rates, credit spreads and the transition from LIBOR to
SOFR, increased market volatility affecting commercial real estate
businesses and public securities); the Company's use of leverage
and interest rate mismatches between the Company’s assets and
borrowings could hinder its ability to make distributions and may
significantly impact its liquidity position; the ability to
simplify the portfolio, realize substantial efficiencies as well as
anticipated strategic and financial benefits, including, but not
limited to expected cost savings through the internalization or
expected returns on equity and/or yields on investments; the timing
of and ability to generate additional liquidity and deploy
available liquidity, including in senior mortgage loans; whether
the Company will achieve its anticipated Distributable Earnings per
share (as adjusted), or maintain or produce higher Distributable
Earnings per share (as adjusted) in the near term or ever; the
Company’s ability to maintain or grow the dividend at all in the
future; defaults by borrowers in paying debt service on outstanding
indebtedness; borrowers’ abilities to manage and stabilize
properties; deterioration in the performance of the properties
securing our investments (including the impact of higher interest
expense, depletion of interest and other reserves or
payment-in-kind concessions in lieu of current interest payment
obligations, population shifts and migration, reduced demand for
office, multifamily, hospitality or retail space) that may cause
deterioration in the performance of our investments and,
potentially, principal losses to us; adverse impacts on the
Company's corporate revolver, including covenant compliance and
borrowing base capacity; adverse impacts on the Company's
liquidity, including available capacity under and margin calls on
master repurchase facilities; lease payment defaults or deferrals,
demands for protective advances and capital expenditures; the
ability of the Company to refinance certain mortgage debt on
similar terms to those currently existing or at all; the ability to
execute CRE CLO’s on a go forward basis, including at a reduced
cost of capital; the impact of legislative, regulatory, tax and
competitive changes, regime changes and the actions of government
authorities and in particular those affecting the commercial real
estate finance and mortgage industry or our business; and the
impact of the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, global trade
tensions, and the implementation and expansion of economic and
trade sanctions. The foregoing list of factors is not exhaustive.
Additional information about these and other factors can be found
in Part I, Item 1A of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for
the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, as well as in BrightSpire
Capital’s other filings with the Securities and Exchange
Commission. Moreover, each of the factors referenced above are
likely to also be impacted directly or indirectly by the ongoing
