Forward-Looking Statements and Other Matters

This presentation contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E

  • f the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, which reflect Blackstone Mortgage Trust, Inc. (“BXMT”) current views with respect to, among
  • ther things, BXMT’s operations and financial performance. You can identify these forward-looking statements by the use of words such as “outlook,”

“indicator,” “believes,” “expects,” “potential,” “continues,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “seeks,” “approximately,” “predicts,” “intends,” “plans,” “estimates,” “anticipates” or the negative version of these words or other comparable words. Such forward-looking statements are subject to various risks and uncertainties. Accordingly, there are or will be important factors that could cause actual outcomes or results to differ materially from those indicated in these statements. BXMT believes these factors include but are not limited to those described under the section entitled “Risk Factors” in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017, as such factors may be updated from time to time in its periodic filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) which are accessible on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. These factors should not be construed as exhaustive and should be read in conjunction with the other cautionary statements that are included in this presentation and in the

  • filings. BXMT assumes no obligation to update or supplement forward‐looking statements that become untrue because of subsequent events or

circumstances. Slide 22 of this presentation references numerical data relating to Blackstone that includes activities of Blackstone Real Estate’s public and private portfolio companies unless otherwise noted. Slide 30 of this presentation includes a reference to imputed core return on equity (“Imputed Core ROE”) and other economic terms relating to an illustrative BXMT loan transaction that are presented solely for purposes of illustrating the impact of using floating rate financing to finance the

  • rigination of a floating rate loan and should not be viewed as indicative of the results that will be achieved for any particular loan in BXMT’s

portfolio or of BXMT’s results as a whole. The loan economics presented are hypothetical and based upon a number of assumptions, including no defaults on the loan, and are subject to various risks and uncertainties. Accordingly, there are or will be important factors, including those referred to above, that could cause the actual economics that are achieved on any loan in BXMT’s loan portfolio to differ materially from those indicated in this

  • illustration. In particular, it should be noted that as a result of such factors the net spread between whole loan yields and the cost of related leverage,

the leverage multiple applicable to any particular loan and allocable overhead may vary materially from period to period and across BXMT’s loan

  • portfolio. Imputed Core ROE also excludes potential incentive management fees and is presented before any tax effects.

Information included in this presentation is as of or for the period ended December 31, 2017, unless otherwise indicated.

Definitions

Core Earnings: Blackstone Mortgage Trust, Inc. (“BXMT”) discloses Core Earnings in this presentation. Core Earnings is a financial measure that is calculated and presented on the basis of methodologies other than in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”). Core Earnings is an adjusted measure that helps BXMT evaluate its performance excluding the effects of certain transactions and GAAP adjustments that it believes are not necessarily indicative of its current loan origination portfolio and operations. Although according to its management agreement BXMT calculates the incentive and base management fees due to its Manager using Core Earnings before incentive fees expense, BXMT reports Core Earnings after incentive fees expense, as BXMT believes this is a more meaningful presentation of the economic performance of its class A common stock. Core Earnings is defined as GAAP net income (loss), including realized gains and losses not otherwise included in GAAP net income (loss), and excluding (i) net income (loss) attributable to the CT Legacy Portfolio, (ii) non-cash equity compensation expense, (iii) depreciation and amortization, (iv) unrealized gains (losses), and (v) certain non-cash items. Core Earnings may also be adjusted from time to time to exclude one-time events pursuant to changes in GAAP and certain other non-cash charges as determined by BXMT’s manager, subject to approval by a majority of its independent directors. Core Earnings does not represent net income or cash generated from operating activities and should not be considered as an alternative to GAAP net income, or an indication of BXMT’s GAAP cash flows from operations, a measure of BXMT’s liquidity, or an indication of funds available for its cash needs. In addition, BXMT’s methodology for calculating Core Earnings may differ from the methodologies employed by other companies to calculate the same or similar supplemental performance measures, and accordingly, its reported Core Earnings may not be comparable to the Core Earnings reported by other companies. Non-Consolidated Senior Interests: Senior interests in loans originated and syndicated to third parties. These non-recourse loan participations, which are excluded from the GAAP balance sheet, constitute additional financing capacity and are included in discussions of the loan portfolio. Net Interest Income Sensitivity to LIBOR: Reflects the impact on net interest income, assuming no changes in credit spreads, portfolio composition, or asset performance. Excludes other components of net income, such as management and incentive fees, which ultimately impact earnings and dividends per share.
