Management Commentary

Operating trends continue to improve across the multifamily portfolio, the Los Angeles and Austin office assets and the Company's one hotel, and we continue to evaluate the potential sale of one or more of our real estate assets.

Total segment net operating income decreased (5.2)% to $9.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $9.8 million for the same period in 2025. However, total segment net operating income, exclusive of loss from unconsolidated entities ("NOI, exclusive of loss from unconsolidated entities")(11)1, increased 22.2% to $12.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $10.3 million for the same period in 2025, as this measure excludes the impact of real estate valuation adjustments recognized by the Company's unconsolidated entities during the period.

Operating Trends

Multifamily

78% of CMCT's multifamily portfolio (based on the number of units) is in the Bay Area, where the residential market is rapidly improving.

CMCT's same-store multifamily occupancy was 95.3% as of June 30, 2026, representing a 1,190 basis point improvement from the second quarter of 2025.

In-place rents at CMCT's Bay Area multifamily assets are approximately 12% below current asking rents, providing an opportunity to grow net operating income as new leases are increased to market.

Office

In the office segment, excluding the Oakland Office Building, the leased percentage was 84.4% as of June 30, 2026, representing a 470 basis point improvement from the second quarter of 2025.

At 11600 Wilshire Boulevard, the Company recently completed its renovation program, which is anticipated to improve leasing activity. The Company is also seeing steady leasing interest at its Culver City and Austin creative office assets.

The Company owns one office asset in Oakland, where demand continues to be challenging. The non-recourse mortgage on the Oakland Office Building matured in the third quarter of 2026. The Company elected not to invest the additional capital in the asset that would have been required to refinance the mortgage and continues to engage with the servicer on a long-term resolution.

Hotel

In the hotel segment, the Company has substantially completed the renovation of the public space, following the renovation of all 505 rooms, setting the property up well for 2026 and beyond. The renovation was the first large scale renovation of the property since it was acquired in 2008. The Company is also exploring an opportunity to convert underutilized space into eight additional rooms.

Improved Financial Strength

The Company has made significant progress on its plan to accelerate its focus towards premier multifamily assets, strengthen the balance sheet and improve liquidity.

Since announcing this plan in September 2024, the Company has completed financings on nine assets, fully retired its recourse credit facility, sold its lending business and redeemed approximately $397.7 million of preferred stock of the Company ("Preferred Stock") in exchange for shares of Common Stock.

In addition, the Company continues to evaluate the potential sale of one or more of our real estate assets.

Given the Company's improved financial position, the Company does not currently intend to redeem, at the Company's election, additional Preferred Stock in shares of Common Stock. However, the Company will evaluate redemption requests submitted by holders of Preferred Stock at the time it receives such requests and may elect to redeem those Preferred Shares in Common Stock or cash, at the Company's discretion.

Second Quarter 2026 Results

Real Estate Portfolio

As of June 30, 2026, our real estate portfolio consisted of 27 assets, all of which were fee-simple properties and five of which we own through investments in unconsolidated joint ventures. Our unconsolidated joint ventures contain one office property, three multifamily properties (one of which has been partially converted from office into multifamily units and is now classified as a multifamily property) and one commercial development site. As of June 30, 2026, our 12 office properties, totaling approximately 1.3 million rentable square feet, were 71.9% occupied; our one hotel with an ancillary parking garage, which has a total of 505 rooms, had RevPAR of $180.47 for the three months ended June 30, 2026, and our five multifamily properties were 93.6% occupied. Additionally, as of June 30, 2026, we had eight development sites (two of which were being used as parking lots).

Financial Results

Net loss attributable to common stockholders was $(11.0) million, or $(4.03) per diluted share of Common Stock, for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to a net loss attributable to common stockholders of $(14.3) million, or $(1,784.88) per diluted share of Common Stock, for the same period in 2025. The decrease in net loss attributable to common stockholders was primarily driven by a decrease in redeemable preferred stock dividends of $4.3 million, partially offset by a decrease in segment net operating income of $510,000.

FFO(3)2 was $(3.5) million, or $(1.28) per diluted share of Common Stock, for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $(7.9) million, or $(981.63) per diluted share of Common Stock, for the same period in 2025. The increase in FFO2 was primarily attributable to a decrease in redeemable preferred stock dividends of $4.3 million, and a decrease in transaction-related costs of $786,000, partially offset by a decrease in segment net operating income of $510,000.

Core FFO(4)2 was $(3.4) million, or $(1.25) per diluted share of Common Stock, for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $(7.0) million, or $(870.25) per diluted share of Common Stock, for the same period in 2025. The increase in Core FFO2 is primarily attributable to the aforementioned changes in FFO2. Unlike FFO2, Core FFO2 was not impacted by the aforementioned decrease in transaction-related costs, as these are excluded from our Core FFO2 calculation.

Segment Information

Our reportable segments during the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 consisted of three types of commercial real estate properties, namely, office, hotel and multifamily. Total segment net operating income ("NOI")(5) was $9.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $9.8 million for the same period in 2025.

Office

Same-Store

Same-store(2) office segment NOI(5) was $4.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 compared to $5.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, while same-store(1) office Cash NOI(6)3 was $4.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026, a decrease from $5.8 million in the same period in 2025. The change in same-store(2) office segment NOI(5) and same-store(1) office Cash NOI(6)3 was primarily driven by fair value adjustments to real estate at two of our unconsolidated office entities during the three months ended June 30, 2026. The change was partially offset by an increase in rental revenue and tenant reimbursement revenue, together with a decrease in real estate taxes and administrative costs at office properties in Los Angeles, California, as well as an increase in tenant reimbursement revenue at the Oakland Office Building and a decrease in administrative costs at an office property in Austin, Texas during the three months ended June 30, 2026 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2025.

At June 30, 2026, the Company's same-store(2) office portfolio was 71.9% occupied, an increase of 380 basis points year-over-year on a same-store(2) basis, and 72.3% leased, an increase of 220 basis points year-over-year on a same-store(2) basis. The annualized rent per occupied square foot(7) on a same-store(2) basis was $58.69 at June 30, 2026, compared to $60.96 at June 30, 2025. During the three months ended June 30, 2026, the Company executed 16,176 square feet of leases with terms longer than 12 months at our same-store(2) office portfolio.

Total

Office Segment NOI(5) was $4.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 compared to $5.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, driven by the aforementioned offsetting activity impacting the same-store(2) office Segment NOI(5).

Hotel

Hotel Segment NOI(5) was $4.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026, as compared to $4.2 million for the same period in 2025. The increase was attributable to increases in room revenue and food and beverage revenues, partially offset by increases in food and beverage expenses and room expenses, as a result of increased occupancy for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2025, in addition to an increase in general and administrative expenses compared to the prior year period.

Multifamily

Our Multifamily Segment consists of two multifamily buildings located in Oakland, California as well as three investments in multifamily buildings in Los Angeles, California owned through unconsolidated joint ventures. Our multifamily segment NOI(5) increased to $638,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $189,000 for the same period in 2025. As of June 30, 2026, our Multifamily Segment was 93.6% occupied, monthly rent per occupied unit(8) was $2,560 and net monthly rent per occupied unit(9) was $2,286, compared to 83.4%, $2,458, and $2,284, respectively, as of June 30, 2025.

Debt and Equity

During the three months ended June 30, 2026, the Company redeemed 22,035 shares of Series A1 Preferred Stock and 39,266 shares of Series A Preferred Stock (all shares of which were redeemed in shares of Common Stock). These redemptions resulted in the collective issuance of 308,679 shares of Common Stock during the three months ended June 30, 2026.

As of June 30, 2026, the non-recourse mortgage on the Company's Oakland Office Building had an outstanding balance of $97.1 million. The mortgage matured in the third quarter of 2026. The Company elected not to invest additional capital in the asset that would have been required to refinance the mortgage. The Company continues to engage with the special servicer on a long-term resolution.

We are in discussions with a lender related to the Sheraton Hotel to refinance the asset, which we expect to result in an upsized loan and a reduced interest rate.

Dividends

We declared preferred stock dividends on our Series A, Series A1 and Series D Preferred Stock for the second quarter of 2026. The dividends were payable on July 15, 2026 to holders of record at the close of business on July 5, 2026.

The dividend amounts are as follows:

			Quarterly Dividend Amount
Series A Preferred Stock			$0.34375 per share
Series A1 Preferred Stock			$0.38375 per share*
Series D Preferred Stock			$0.353125 per share

*The quarterly cash dividend of $0.38375 per share represents an annualized dividend rate of 6.14% (2.5% plus the federal funds rate of 3.64% on the applicable determination date). The terms of the Series A1 Preferred Stock provide for cumulative cash dividends (if, as and when authorized by the Board of Directors) on each share of Series A1 Preferred Stock at a quarterly rate of the greater of (i) 6.00% of the Series A1 Stated Value, divided by four (4) and (ii) the Federal Funds (Effective) Rate on the applicable determination date, plus 2.50%, of the Series A1 Stated Value, divided by four (4), up to a maximum of 2.50% of the Series A1 Stated Value per quarter.

About the Data

Descriptions of certain performance measures, including Segment NOI, Cash NOI, FFO attributable to common stockholders, Core FFO attributable to common stockholders, undepreciated common book value, and NOI, exclusive of income (loss) from unconsolidated entities are provided below. Certain of these performance measures-Cash NOI, FFO attributable to common stockholders, Core FFO attributable to common stockholders, undepreciated common book value, and NOI, exclusive of income (loss) from unconsolidated entities -are non-GAAP financial measures. Refer to the subsequent tables for reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure.

(1)Stabilized office portfolio: represents office properties where occupancy was not impacted by a redevelopment or repositioning during the period.

(2)Same-store properties: are properties that we have owned and operated in a consistent manner and reported in our consolidated results during the entire span of the periods being reported. We excluded from our same-store property set this quarter any properties (i) acquired on or after April 1, 2025; (ii) sold or otherwise removed from our consolidated financial statements on or before June 30, 2026; or (iii) that underwent a major repositioning project we believed significantly affected its results at any point during the period commencing on April 1, 2025 and ending on June 30, 2026.

(3)FFO attributable to common stockholders ("FFO"): represents net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders, computed in accordance with GAAP, which reflects the deduction of redeemable preferred stock dividends accumulated, excluding gain (or loss) from sales of real estate, impairment of real estate, casualty losses, net, and real estate depreciation and amortization. We calculate FFO in accordance with the standards established by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (the "NAREIT"). See 'Core FFO' definition below for discussion of the benefits and limitations of FFO as a supplemental measure of operating performance.

(4)Core FFO attributable to common stockholders ("Core FFO"): represents FFO attributable to common stockholders (computed as described above), excluding gain (loss) on early extinguishment of debt, redeemable preferred stock deemed dividends, redeemable preferred stock redemptions, gain (loss) on termination of interest rate swaps, and transaction costs.

We believe that FFO is a widely recognized and appropriate measure of the performance of a REIT and that it is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of REITs, many of which present FFO

when reporting their results. In addition, we believe that Core FFO is a useful metric for securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of our Company as it excludes from FFO the effect of certain amounts that we believe are non-recurring, are non-operating in nature as they relate to the manner in which we finance our operations, or transactions outside of the ordinary course of business.

Like any metric, FFO and Core FFO should not be used as the only measure of our performance because it excludes depreciation and amortization and captures neither the changes in the value of our real estate properties that result from use or market conditions nor the level of capital expenditures and leasing commissions necessary to maintain the operating performance of our properties, and Core FFO excludes amounts incurred in connection with non-recurring special projects, prepaying or defeasing our debt, repurchasing our preferred stock, and adjusting the carrying value of our preferred stock classified in temporary equity to its redemption value, all of which have real economic effect and could materially impact our operating results. Other REITs may not calculate FFO and Core FFO in the same manner as we do, or at all; accordingly, our FFO and Core FFO may not be comparable to the FFOs and Core FFOs of other REITs. Therefore, FFO and Core FFO should be considered only as a supplement to net income (loss) as a measure of our performance and should not be used as a supplement to or substitute measure for cash flows from operating activities computed in accordance with GAAP. FFO and Core FFO should not be used as a measure of our liquidity, nor is it indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs, including our ability to pay dividends. FFO and Core FFO per share for the year-to-date period may differ from the sum of quarterly FFO and Core FFO per share amounts due to the required method for computing per share amounts for the respective periods. In addition, FFO and Core FFO per share is calculated independently for each component and may not be additive due to rounding.

(5)Segment NOI: for our real estate segments represents rental and other property income and expense reimbursements less property related expenses and excludes non-property income and expenses, interest expense, depreciation and amortization, corporate related general and administrative expenses, gain (loss) on sale of real estate, gain (loss) on early extinguishment of debt, impairment of real estate, transaction costs, and benefit (provision) for income taxes. For our lending segment, Segment NOI represents interest income net of interest expense and general overhead expenses. See 'Cash NOI' definition below for discussion of the benefits and limitations of Segment NOI as a supplemental measure of operating performance.

(6)Cash NOI: for our real estate segments, represents Segment NOI adjusted to exclude the effect of the straight lining of rents, acquired above/below market lease amortization and other adjustments required by generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). For our lending segment, there is no distinction between Cash NOI and Segment NOI.

Segment NOI and Cash NOI are not measures of operating results or cash flows from operating activities as measured by GAAP and should not be considered alternatives to income from continuing operations, or to cash flows as a measure of liquidity, or as an indication of our performance or of our ability to pay dividends. Companies may not calculate Segment NOI or Cash NOI in the same manner. We consider Segment NOI and Cash NOI to be useful performance measures to investors and management because, when compared across periods, they reflect the revenues and expenses directly associated with owning and operating our properties and the impact to operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates and operating costs, providing a perspective not immediately apparent from income from continuing operations. Additionally, we believe that Cash NOI is helpful to investors because it eliminates straight line rent and other non-cash adjustments to revenue and expenses.

(7)Annualized rent per occupied square foot: represents gross monthly base rent under leases commenced as of the specified periods, multiplied by twelve. This amount reflects total cash rent before abatements. Where applicable, annualized rent has been grossed up by adding annualized expense reimbursements to base rent. Annualized rent for certain office properties includes contractual rent under retail leases.

(8)Monthly rent per occupied unit: Represents gross monthly base rent under leases commenced as of the specified period, divided by occupied units. This amount reflects total cash rent before concessions.

(9)Net monthly rent per occupied unit: Represents gross monthly base rent under leases commenced as of the specified period less rent concessions granted during the specified period, divided by occupied units.

(10)Undepreciated common book value: Represents total stockholders' equity, computed in accordance with GAAP, adjusted to exclude accumulated depreciation and preferred stock. We believe that undepreciated common book value is a useful metric for securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of our Company as it excludes from common stockholder's equity the effect of depreciation, which is a non-cash expense.

(11)NOI, exclusive of income (loss) from unconsolidated entities: Represents Segment NOI, as defined above, adjusted to exclude our share of income (loss) from unconsolidated entities. We believe this measure is useful for the current period because it reflects the operating performance of our consolidated real estate portfolio without the impact of one-time real estate valuation adjustments recognized by unconsolidated entities during the period.
