Interest Rate Sensitivity
97% of loans are at floating rates, increasing exposure to market rate fluctuations.
Credit Risk Concerns
$84.9M asset-specific CECL reserve reflects potential credit defaults on loans.
Market Dependence
Performance is highly dependent on commercial real estate conditions, which can fluctuate.
