Colony Credit Real Estate, Inc. Announces

First Quarter 2021 Financial Results

NEW YORK, May 5, 2021 – Colony Credit Real Estate, Inc. (NYSE: CLNC) (“Colony Credit Real Estate” or the “Company”) today announced its financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2021 and certain updates. The Company reported first quarter 2021 GAAP net loss attributable to common stockholders of $(92.3) million, or $(0.71) per share, and Distributable Earnings of $13.8 million, or $0.10 per share. Excluding realized gains and losses on sales and fair value adjustments, Adjusted Distributable Earnings were $18.0 million, or $0.14 per share. The Company reported GAAP net book value of $11.98 per share and undepreciated book value of $12.84 per share as of March 31, 2021.

Michael J. Mazzei, Chief Executive Officer and President, commented, “The internalization closing caps off a productive period for the team focused on stabilizing the balance sheet, unwinding the legacy, non-strategic segment and improving the Company’s positioning and financial flexibility for the long haul. The internalization of management and operations provides an annual cost savings of $14 million to $16 million or 10 to 12 cents per share. This also streamlines governance and fully aligns CLNC employees and shareholders.”

Mr. Mazzei continued, “After reinstituting our dividend last quarter, I am pleased to announce that we have increased our second quarter dividend now by 40% to $0.14 per share as a result of the internalization and new origination activity. Since re-engaging on new transactions, we have closed or committed on $1 billion in senior loans.”

Supplemental Financial Report

A First Quarter 2021 Supplemental Financial Report is available on the Shareholders – Events and Presentations section of the Company’s website at www.clncredit.com. This information will be furnished to the SEC in a Current Report on Form 8-K.

IMPORTANT NOTE REGARDING NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES AND DEFINITIONS We present Distributable Earnings, which is a non-GAAP supplemental financial measure of our performance. We believe that Distributable Earnings provides meaningful information to consider in addition to our net income and cash flow from operating activities determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and this metric is a useful indicator for investors in evaluating and comparing our operating performance to our peers and our ability to pay dividends. We elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, beginning with our taxable year ended December 31, 2018. As a REIT, we are required to distribute substantially all of our taxable income and we believe that dividends are one of the principal reasons investors invest in credit or commercial mortgage REITs such as our company. Over time, Distributable Earnings has been a useful indicator of our dividends per share and we consider that measure in determining the dividend, if any, to be paid. This supplemental financial measure also helps us to evaluate our performance excluding the effects of certain transactions and U.S. GAAP adjustments that we believe are not necessarily indicative of our current portfolio and operations We define Distributable Earnings as U.S. GAAP net income (loss) attributable to our common stockholders (or, without duplication, the owners of the common equity of our direct subsidiaries, such as our operating quity compensation expense, (ii) the expenses incurred in connection with our formation or other strategic transactions, (iii) the incentive fee, (iv) acquisition costs from successful acquisitions, (v) gains or losses from sales of real estate property and impairment write-downs of depreciable real estate, including unconsolidated joint ventures and preferred equity investments, (vi) CECL gains or losses or other similar non-cash items that are included in net income for the current quarter, regardless of whether such items are included in other comprehensive income or loss, or in net income, (ix) one-time events pursuant to changes in U.S. GAAP and (x) certain material non- cash income or expense items that in the judgment of management should not be included in Distributable Earnings. For clauses (ix) and (x), such exclusions shall only be applied after approval by a majority of our independent directors. Distributable Earnings include provision for loan losses when realized. Loan losses are realized when such amounts are deemed nonrecoverable at the time the loan is repaid, or if the underlying asset is sold following foreclosure, or if we determine that it is probable that all amounts due will not be collected; realized loan losses to be included in Distributable Earnings is the difference between the cash received, or expected to be received, and the book value of the asset. Distributable Earnings does not represent net income or cash generated from operating activities and should not be considered as an alternative to U.S. GAAP net income or an indication of our cash flows from operating activities determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, a measure of our liquidity, or an indication of funds available to fund our cash needs. In addition, our methodology for calculating Distributable Earnings may differ from methodologies employed by other companies to calculate the same or similar non-GAAP supplemental financial measures, and accordingly, our reported Distributable Earnings may not be comparable to the Distributable Earnings reported by other companies. The Company calculates Distributable Earnings per share, which are non-GAAP supplemental financial measures, based on a weighted average number of common shares and operating partnership units (held by members other than the Company or its subsidiaries). re closely linked to the direct results of operations at the property level. NOI excludes historical cost depreciation and amortization, which are based on different useful life estimates depending on the age of the properties, as well as adjustments for the effects of real estate impairment and gains or losses on sales of depreciated properties, which eliminate differences arising from investment and disposition decisions. Additionally, by excluding corporate level expenses or benefits such as interest expense, any gain or loss on early extinguishment of debt and income taxes, which are incurred by the parent entity and are not directly linked to the ope thers, such as capital expenditures and leasing costs, which are s, and transaction costs and administrative costs, may limit the usefulness of NOI. NOI may fail to capture significant trends in these components of U.S. GAAP net income (loss) which further limits its usefulness. NOI should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss), determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, as an indicator of operating performance. In addition, our methodology for calculating NOI involves subjective judgment and discretion and may differ from the methodologies used by other companies, when calculating the same or similar supplemental financial measures and may not be comparable with other companies. 19 19IMPORTANT NOTE REGARDING NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES AND DEFINITIONS We present Distributable Earnings, which is a non-GAAP supplemental financial measure of our performance.

We present risk rankings, which is a supplemental financial disclosure, for loans and preferred equity investments. In addition to reviewing loans and preferred equity for impairments on a quarterly basis, the Company evaluates loans and preferred equity to determine if an allowance for loan loss should be established. In conjunction with this review, the Company assesses the risk factors of each loan and preferred equity investment and assigns a risk rating based on a variety of factors, including, without limitation, underlying real estate performance and asset value, values of comparable properties, durability and quality of property cash flows, sponsor experience and financial wherewithal, and the existence of a risk-mitigating loan structure. Additional key considerations include loan-to-value ratios, debt service coverage ratios, loan structure, real estate and credit market dynamics, and risk of default or pri origination or purchase, loans and preferred equity investmen 20 20IMPORTANT NOTE REGARDING NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES AND DEFINITIONS ce with GAAP.

NOTES REGARDING REPORTABLE SEGMENTS table segments below, which are based on how management reviews and manages its business. During the first quarter of 2021, the Company realigned the business and reportable segment information to reflect how the Chief Operating Decision Makers regularly review and manage the business. As a result, we present our business as one portfolio and through the below business segments. Prior to the realignment noted above, the Company had conducted business through two portfolios, the Core Portfolio and Legacy, Non-Strategic Portfolio, since the third quarter 2019. Since then, we have resolved 56 investments in our Legacy, Non-Strategic Portfolio with the remaining investments representing less than 1% of our total net book value at the end of 2020. As such, we have dissolved the separate segment reporting of Legacy, Non-Strategic Portfolio as of the beginning of the first quarter of 2021. Senior and Mezzanine Loans and Preferred Equity ( Loans & Preferred Equity Portfolio or Loan Portfolio ) The Loan Portfolio also includes acquisition, development and construction loan arrangements accounted for as equity method investments as well as loans and preferred equity interests held through joint ventures with an affiliate of Colony Capital, Inc., which were deconsolidated as a result of the merger and subsequently treated as equity method investments. • Senior mortgage loans may include junior participations in our originated senior mortgage loans for which we have syndicated the senior participations to other investors and retained the junior participations for our portfolio and contiguous mezzanine loans where we own both the senior and junior loan positions. We believe these investments are more similar to the senior mortgage loans we originate than other loan types given their credit quality and risk profile • Mezzanine loans include other subordinated loans • Preferred equity interests include related equity participation interests Net Leased Real Estate and Other Real Estate ( Net Lease and Other Real Estate ) ong-term leases to tenants on a net lease basis, where such tenants are generally responsible for property operating expenses such as insurance, utilities, maintenance capital expenditures and real estate taxes. Other Real Estate investments included direct ownership in commercial real estate, with an emphasis on properties with stable cash flow.

CRE Debt Securities Corporate As of March 31, 2021, the Corporate segment included corporate-level asset management and other fees including expenses related to our secured revolving credit facility, related party and general and administrative expenses. 21 21NOTES REGARDING REPORTABLE SEGMENTS table segments below, which are based on how management reviews and manages its business. During the first quarter of 2021, the Company realigned the business and reportable segment information to reflect how the Chief Operating Decision Makers regularly review and manage the business. As a result, we present our business as one portfolio and through the below business segments. Prior to the realignment noted above, the Company had conducted business through two portfolios, the Core Portfolio and Legacy, Non-Strategic Portfolio, since the third quarter 2019. Since then, we have resolved 56 investments in our Legacy, Non-Strategic Portfolio with the remaining investments representing less than 1% of our total net book value at the end of 2020. As such, we have dissolved the separate segment reporting of Legacy, Non-Strategic Portfolio as of the beginning of the first quarter of 2021. Senior and Mezzanine Loans and Preferred Equity ( Loans & Preferred Equity Portfolio or Loan Portfolio ) The Loan Portfolio also includes acquisition, development and construction loan arrangements accounted for as equity method investments as well as loans and preferred equity interests held through joint ventures with an affiliate of Colony Capital, Inc., which were deconsolidated as a result of the merger and subsequently treated as equity method investments. • Senior mortgage loans may include junior participations in our originated senior mortgage loans for which we have syndicated the senior participations to other investors and retained the junior participations for our portfolio and contiguous mezzanine loans where we own both the senior and junior loan positions. We believe these investments are more similar to the senior mortgage loans we originate than other loan types given their credit quality and risk profile • Mezzanine loans include other subordinated loans • Preferred equity interests include related equity participation interests Net Leased Real Estate and Other Real Estate ( Net Lease and Other Real Estate ) ong-term leases to tenants on a net lease basis, where such tenants are generally responsible for property operating expenses such as insurance, utilities, maintenance capital expenditures and real estate taxes.

APPENDIXAPPENDIX


Important Note Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Definitions We present Distributable Earnings, which is a non-GAAP supplemental financial measure of our performance. We believe that Distributable Earnings provides meaningful information to consider in addition to our net income and cash flow from operating activities determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and this metric is a useful indicator for investors in evaluating and comparing our operating performance to our peers and our ability to pay dividends. We elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, beginning with our taxable year ended December 31, 2018. As a REIT, we are required to distribute substantially all of our taxable income and we believe that dividends are one of the principal reasons investors invest in credit or commercial mortgage REITs such as our company. Over time, Distributable Earnings has been a useful indicator of our dividends per share and we consider that measure in determining the dividend, if any, to be paid. This supplemental financial measure also helps us to evaluate our performance excluding the effects of certain transactions and U.S. GAAP adjustments that we believe are not necessarily indicative of our current portfolio and operations. For information on the fees we paid the M ncial statements included in Form 10-Q to be filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange We define Distributable Earnings as U.S. GAAP net income (loss) attributable to our common stockholders (or, without duplication, the owners of the c excluding (i) non-cash equity compensation expense, (ii) the expenses incurred in connection with our formation or other strategic transactions, (iii) the incentive fee, (iv) acquisition costs from successful acquisitions, (v) gains or losses from sales of real estate property and impairment write-downs of depreciable real estate, including unconsolidated joint ventures and preferred equity investments, (vi) CECL reserves determined by probability of default / loss given default (or zed gains or losses or other similar non-cash items that are included in net income for the current quarter, regardless of whether such items are included in other comprehensive income or loss, or in net income, (ix) one-time events pursuant to changes in U.S. GAAP and (x) certain material non-cash income or expense items that in the judgment of management should not be included in Distributable Earnings. For clauses (ix) and (x), such exclusions shall only be applied after approval by a majority of our independent directors. Distributable Earnings include provision for loan losses when realized. Loan losses are realized when such amounts are deemed nonrecoverable at the time the loan is repaid, or if the underlying asset is sold following foreclosure, or if we determine that it is probable that all amounts due will not be collected; realized loan losses to be included in Distributable Earnings is the difference between the cash received, or expected to be received, and the book value of the asset. Distributable Earnings does not represent net income or cash generated from operating activities and should not be considered as an alternative to U.S. GAAP net income or an indication of our cash flows from operating activities determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, a measure of our liquidity, or an indication of funds available to fund our cash needs. In addition, our methodology for calculating Distributable Earnings may differ from methodologies employed by other companies to calculate the same or similar non-GAAP supplemental financial measures, and accordingly, our reported Distributable Earnings may not be comparable to the Distributable Earnings reported by other companies. The Company calculates Distributable Earnings per share, which are non-GAAP supplemental financial measures, based on a weighted average number of common shares and operating partnership units (held by members other than the Company or its subsidiaries). ormation, which is not, and is not intended to be, a presentation in accordance with GAAP. The Company computes pro rata financial information by applying its economic interest to each financial statement line item on an investment-b economic interest to each financial statement line item. The Company provides pro rata financial information because it may assist investors and analysts in estimating the Compan financial information as an analytical tool has limitations. Other companies may not calculate their pro rata information in the same methodology, a companies pro rata information. As such, the pro rata financial information should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for our financial statements as reported under GAAP, but may be used as a supplement to financial information as reported under GAAP. We present loan-to-value which reflects the initial loan amount divided by the as-is appraised value as of the date the loan was originated, or by the current principal amount divided by the appraisal value as of the date of the most recent as- is appraisal. For construction loans, loan-to-value reflects the total commitment amount of the loan divided by the as-completed appraised value, or the total commitment amount of the loan divided by the projected total cost basis. We present risk rankings, which is a supplemental financial disclosure, for loans and preferred equity investments. In addition to reviewing loans and preferred equity for impairments on a quarterly basis, the Company evaluates loans and preferred equity to determine if an allowance for loan loss should be established. In conjunction with this review, the Company assesses the risk factors of each loan and preferred equity investment and assigns a risk rating based on a variety of factors, including, without limitation, underlying real estate performance and asset value, values of comparable properties, durability and quality of property cash flows, sponsor experience and financial wherewithal, and the existence of a risk-mitigating loan structure. Additional key considerations include loan-to-value ratios, debt service coverage ratios, loan structure, real estate and credit market dynamics, and risk of default or principal loss. Based on a five-point scale, the from less risk to greater risk. At the time of origination or purchase, loa forward. 18Important Note Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Definitions We present Distributable Earnings, which is a non-GAAP supplemental financial measure of our performance.
