Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements include Broadmark Realty Capital Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) regarding interim financial reporting. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. Accordingly, these unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies described in the audited consolidated financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the accompanying notes included in Broadmark Realty Capital Inc.’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended, for the year ended December 31, 2022, which was filed with the SEC on March 1, 2023 and amended on April 21, 2023. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2022, included herein, was derived from the audited financial statements of Broadmark Realty Capital Inc. as of that date.

The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly our financial position as of March 31, 2023, our results of operations and stockholders’ equity for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, and our cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022. The results of the three months ended March 31, 2023 is not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2023 or for any interim period or for any other future year.

Principles of Consolidation

Broadmark Realty consolidates those entities in which it has control over significant operating, financial and investing decisions of the entity, as well as those entities deemed to be variable interest entities (“VIEs”), if any, in which Broadmark Realty is determined to be the primary beneficiary. Broadmark Realty is not the primary beneficiary of, and therefore does not consolidate, any VIEs in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Reclassifications

Certain amounts in our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2023 have been reclassified to conform to the presentation of our current period unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. These reclassifications had no effect on our previously reported net income or stockholders’ equity.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts and disclosures at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The most significant estimates relate to the expected credit losses on our loans, the fair value of financial instruments, exit prices for collateral dependent loans and the fair value of investments in real property. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.

For certain real properties, where a recent appraisal is either unavailable or not most representative of fair value, the fair value of the “as complete” property is based on a broker opinion of value including a capitalized income analysis and replacement cost analysis considering market rents, vacancy rates, capitalization rates, land cost comparisons, market trends and economic conditions. Depending on the stage of the underlying property, we also consider estimated costs to complete remaining construction and to lease up the finished property. The assessment of fair value of real property is subject to uncertainty and, in certain cases, sensitive to the selection of comparable properties.

Certain Significant Risks and Uncertainties

In the normal course of business, we encounter two primary types of economic risk in the form of credit and market risks. Credit risk is the risk of default on our investment in mortgage notes receivable resulting from a borrower's inability or unwillingness to make contractually required payments. Market risk is the risk of declining real estate values for the collateral underlying our loans which may make it more difficult for existing borrowers to remain current on their payment obligations, reduce the speed or ability for our loans to be repaid through the sale or refinance of the collateral and increase the likelihood that we will incur losses on our loans in the event of default as the value of collateral may be insufficient to cover our investment in the loan. We believe that the carrying values of our loans reasonably consider these risks.

In addition, we are subject to significant tax risks. If we were to fail to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, we would be subject to U.S. federal corporate income tax, which could be material.

We operate in a dynamic industry and, accordingly, can be affected by a variety of factors. For example, we believe that changes in any of the following areas could have a significant negative effect on us in terms of our future financial position, results of operations or cash flows: the economy in the areas we operate; the stability of the real estate market and the impact of interest rate changes; competition in our market; changes in government regulation affecting our business; public health crises, like the COVID-19 pandemic; natural disasters, catastrophic events and the physical effects of climate change; and our ability to attract and retain qualified employees and key personnel, among other things.

Reportable Segments

We operate the business as one reportable segment. Our principal business activities are related to the origination, underwriting and serving of loans secured by real estate as well the investment in real property held for sale and use.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In March 2022, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2022-02, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures, which eliminates the accounting guidance for troubled debt restructurings (“TDR”) for creditors that have adopted the current expected credit losses (“CECL”) standard and requires enhanced disclosures for loan modifications made to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty in the form of interest rate reductions, principal forgiveness, other-than-insignificant payment delays, or term extensions. In addition, the new guidance requires presentation in the vintage disclosures of current-period gross write-offs by year of origination. The Company adopted the ASU for modifications beginning in the first quarter of 2023. While the guidance resulted in expanded disclosures, the adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.
