23 4Q'25 Portfolio Details (1) Our total portfolio represents the current principal amount or investment amount on senior and mezzanine loans, real estate assets, CMBS investments and other investments. Excludes loans that were fully written off. For Senior Loan 6, the total whole loan is on non-accrual and has an outstanding principal balance of $194.4 million, including (i) a fully funded senior mortgage loan of $120.0 million, at an interest rate of S+2.25% and (ii) a mezzanine note with a commitment of $79.4 million, of which $74.4 million was funded as of December 31, 2025, at a fixed interest rate of 4.5% PIK. (2) Total Whole Loan represents the total commitment of the entire loan originated, including participations by KKR affiliated entities. (3) Net equity reflects (i) the amortized cost basis of our loans, net of borrowings; (ii) real estate assets, net of borrowings and noncontrolling interests, and (iii) the investment amount of equity method investments, net of borrowings. (4) Weighted average is weighted by the current principal amount of our loans and the investment amount of CMBS investments. Weighted average LTV excludes risk-rated 5 loans and weighted average coupon excludes loans on nonaccrual status. (5) Coupon expressed as spread over Term SOFR, SONIA or EURIBOR. (6) Maximum remaining term (years) assumes all extension options are exercised, if applicable. (7) Loan Per SF / Unit / Key is based on the current principal amount divided by the current SF / Unit / Key. For Senior Loans 1, 2, 4, 10, 16 and 39, Loan Per SF / Unit / Key is calculated as the total commitment amount of the loan divided by the proposed SF / Unit / Key. (8) For senior loans, LTV is generally based on the initial loan amount divided by the as-is appraised value as of the date the loan was originated; for mezzanine loans, LTV is based on the initial balance of the whole loan divided by the as-is appraised value as of the date the loan was originated; for CMBS investments, LTV is based on the weighted average LTV of the underlying loan pool at issuance. Weighted Average LTV excludes risk-rated 5 loans. For Senior Loans 1, 2, 4, 10, 16 and 39, LTV is calculated as the total commitment amount of the loan divided by the as-stabilized value as of the date the loan was originated. (9) Represents real estate assets held through a Tenant-in-Common ("TIC") agreement between us and a KKR affiliate. We hold a 74.6% economic interest in the real estate assets and share decision- making with the KKR affiliate under the TIC agreement. (10) Represents our investment in an aggregator vehicle that invests in CMBS B-Pieces. Committed principal represents our total commitment to the aggregator vehicle whereas current principal represents the current funded amount. (11) Represents our 50% economic interest in an affiliated company, which is invested in a senior mortgage loan that is collateralized by industrial properties located in France. The underlying senior mortgage loan with an outstanding principal balance of €65.2 million, has a coupon of 2.8%, term to maturity of 2.8 years and LTV of 69%. The affiliated company's investment in the underlying senior mortgage loan is 80% financed with a funding cost of EURIBOR + 1.6%. KREF does not have unilateral authority to direct the activities that most significantly impact the affiliated company's economic performance.

31 Key Definitions “Distributable Earnings (Loss)": The Company defines Distributable Earnings as net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders or, without duplication, owners of the Company's subsidiaries, computed in accordance with GAAP, including realized losses not otherwise included in GAAP net income (loss) and excluding (i) non-cash equity compensation expense, (ii) depreciation and amortization, (iii) any unrealized gains or losses or other similar non-cash items that are included in net income for the applicable reporting period, regardless of whether such items are included in other comprehensive income or loss, or in net income, and (iv) one-time events pursuant to changes in GAAP and certain material non-cash income or expense items agreed upon after discussions between the Company’s Manager and board of directors and after approval by a majority of the independent directors. The exclusion of depreciation and amortization from the calculation of Distributable Earnings only applies to debt investments related to real estate to the extent the Company forecloses upon the property or properties underlying such debt investments. Distributable Earnings should not be considered as a substitute for GAAP net income or taxable income. The Company cautions readers that its methodology for calculating Distributable Earnings may differ from the methodologies employed by other REITs to calculate the same or similar supplemental performance measures, and as a result, the Company’s reported Distributable Earnings may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other REITs.
