Commitments and Contingencies
As of December 31, 2025, our Commercial and Residential Lending Segment had future commercial loan funding commitments totaling $2.0 billion, of which we expect to fund $1.6 billion. These future funding commitments primarily relate to construction projects, capital improvements, tenant improvements and leasing commissions.
As of December 31, 2025, our Infrastructure Lending Segment had future infrastructure loan funding commitments totaling $418.5 million, including $253.9 million under revolvers and letters of credit (“LCs”) and $164.6 million under delayed draw term loans. Additionally, as of December 31, 2025, our Infrastructure Lending Segment had outstanding loan purchase commitments of $173.6 million.
As of December 31, 2025, our Property Segment had future construction funding commitments of $56.6 million related to development projects which have estimated rental revenue commencement dates between January 2026 and December 2027.
Generally, funding commitments are subject to certain conditions that must be met, such as customary construction draw certifications, minimum debt service coverage ratios or executions of new leases before advances are made to the borrower.
Management is not aware of any other contractual obligations, legal proceedings, or any other contingent obligations incurred in the normal course of business that would have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial statements.

About Commitments Disclosures

Commitments and contingencies disclosures catalog a company's off-balance-sheet obligations and legal exposures — purchase commitments, guarantee arrangements, pending litigation, and regulatory proceedings. These items represent potential future cash outflows that may not appear as liabilities on the balance sheet until they become probable and estimable.

Key signals: litigation reserves and disclosed loss ranges quantify management's estimate of legal exposure, but unquantified "reasonably possible" losses often represent the larger risk. Watch for changes in language around pending cases — shifts from "remote" to "reasonably possible" or increases in estimated loss ranges signal deteriorating outcomes. Unconditional purchase obligations and take-or-pay contracts create fixed cost structures that reduce operational flexibility. Guarantee arrangements for subsidiaries or joint ventures can create cascading obligations. Compare the total commitment schedule against projected free cash flow to assess whether the company can meet its obligations without additional financing.
