Commercial Real Estate Loans Held-for-Investment
The Company is the sole certificate holder of a trust entity that holds a commercial real estate loan. The underlying loan held by the trust, which is consolidated on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet, is classified as commercial real estate loans held-for-investment and carried at cost, net of any unamortized premiums or discounts, unless deemed impaired. See Note 3 - Variable Interest Entities for additional information regarding consolidation of the trust.
The following table presents the carrying value of the Company’s commercial real estate loans held-for-investment as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014:
As of June 30, 2015, the Company’s commercial real estate loans held-for-investment were comprised of one newly-issued senior mezzanine commercial real estate loan with a two-year interest-only term. The Company evaluates each loan for impairment at least quarterly as described in Note 2 - Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies. As of June 30, 2015, the properties collateralizing the Company’s one commercial real estate loan have continued to perform as originally underwritten, and as such, are considered to have very low risk. The Company has not recorded any allowances for losses as it is not deemed probable that the Company will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan. The Company did not hold any commercial real estate loans held-for-investment as of December 31, 2014. At June 30, 2015, the Company pledged commercial real estate loans held-for-investment with a carrying value of $45.6 million as collateral for repurchase agreements. See Note 16 - Repurchase Agreements.
