NEW YORK, July 29, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Apollo Commercial Real Estate Finance, Inc. (the “Company” or “ARI”) (NYSE: ARI) today reported results for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2025. Net income attributable to common stockholders per diluted share of common stock was $0.12 for the quarter ended June 30, 2025. Distributable Earnings per diluted share of common stock (a non-GAAP financial measure defined below) was $0.26 for the quarter ended June 30, 2025. Commenting on second quarter 2025 performance, Stuart Rothstein, Chief Executive Officer and President of the Company, said: “We continue to execute on the business plan laid out for ARI. For the first six months of the year, ARI committed $2.0 billion to new loans as we redeploy capital from repayments and the capital generated from managing towards resolution on ARI’s focus assets.” ARI issued a detailed presentation of the Company’s quarter ended June 30, 2025 results, which can be viewed at www.apollocref.com.

Distributable Earnings“Distributable Earnings,” a non-GAAP financial measure, is defined as net income available to common stockholders, computed in accordance with GAAP, adjusted for (i) equity-based compensation expense (a portion of which may become cash-based upon final vesting and settlement of awards should the holder elect net share settlement to satisfy income tax withholding), (ii) any unrealized gains or losses or other non-cash items (including depreciation and amortization related to real estate owned) included in net income available to common stockholders, (iii) unrealized income from unconsolidated joint ventures, (iv) foreign currency gains (losses), other than (a) realized gains/(losses) related to interest income, and (b) forward point gains/(losses) realized on the Company’s foreign currency hedges, and (v) provision for current expected credit losses. As a REIT, U.S. federal income tax law generally requires the Company to distribute annually at least 90% of its REIT taxable income, without regard to the deduction for dividends paid and excluding net capital gains, and that the Company pay tax at regular corporate rates to the extent that it annually distributes less than 100% of its net taxable income. Given these requirements and the Company’s belief that dividends are generally one of the principal reasons shareholders invest in a REIT, the Company generally intends over time to pay dividends to its stockholders in an amount equal to its net taxable income, if and to the extent authorized by the Company’s board of directors. Distributable Earnings is a key factor considered by the Company’s board of directors in setting the dividend and as such the Company believes Distributable Earnings is useful to investors. The Company believes it is useful to its investors to also present Distributable Earnings prior to net realized loss on investments, in applicable periods, to reflect its operating results because (i) the Company’s operating results are primarily comprised of earning interest income on its investments net of borrowing and administrative costs, which comprise the Company’s ongoing operations and (ii) it has been a useful factor related to the Company’s dividend per share because it is one of the considerations when a dividend is determined. The Company believes that its investors use Distributable Earnings and Distributable Earnings prior to net realized loss on investments or a comparable supplemental performance measure, to evaluate and compare the performance of the Company and its peers. During the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company recorded no realized losses in the consolidated statement of operations. A significant limitation associated with Distributable Earnings as a measure of the Company’s financial performance over any period is that it excludes unrealized gains (losses) from investments. In addition, the Company’s presentation of Distributable Earnings may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies, that use different calculations. As a result, Distributable Earnings should not be considered as a substitute for the Company’s GAAP net income as a measure of its financial performance or any measure of its liquidity under GAAP. Distributable Earnings are reduced for realized losses on loans which include losses that management believes are near certain to be realized. A reconciliation of Distributable Earnings to GAAP net income (loss) available to common stockholders is included in the detailed presentation of the Company’s quarter ended June 30, 2025 results, which can be viewed at www.apollocref.com.
