Note 1 - Organization

Franklin BSP Real Estate Debt BDC (the “Company”) is an externally managed, non-diversified, closed-end management investment company that elected to be regulated as a business development company (a “BDC”) under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”) on June 6, 2024 and has elected to be treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and intends to qualify annually thereafter, as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”). The Company was formed as a Delaware statutory trust on March 11, 2024 (date of inception). As a BDC, the Company must comply with certain regulatory requirements.

The Company is externally managed by Benefit Street Partners, L.L.C. (the “Advisor”). The Company’s Advisor is a limited liability company that is registered as an investment advisor with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended (the “Advisers Act”). The Advisor oversees the management of the Company’s activities and is responsible for making investment decisions with respect to the Company’s portfolio.

The Company’s investment objectives are to seek to provide high current income while maintaining downside protection. The Company seeks to invest in assets that will enable it to:

•provide current income in the form of regular, stable cash distributions to achieve an attractive distribution yield;

•preserve and protect invested capital, by primarily focusing on high-quality credit investments supported by current cash-flow and/or limited business plan risk in the underlying assets;

•reduce downside risk through loans with relatively low loan-to-value ratios, meaning we generally invest in less risky loans with low interest rates which are backed by high-quality real assets, with a focus on residential lending and with meaningful borrower equity; and

•provide an investment alternative for shareholders seeking to allocate a portion of their long-term investment portfolios to commercial real estate (“CRE”) debt with expected lower volatility than publicly traded securities and compelling risk-adjusted returns compared to fixed income alternatives.

The Company’s investment strategy is to originate, acquire, finance and manage a portfolio of primarily CRE investments, focused on senior secured, CRE loans across a wide range of geography. The Company focuses its investments in the middle market, with loans in the range of $25 - $100 million, across a mix of asset classes, but maintains a focus on multi-family lending. To a lesser extent, the Company may invest in, or originate, other real-estate related debt and equity investments, which may include subordinated debt, commercial mortgage-backed securities (“CMBS”) and collateralized loan obligations (“CLOs”).

The Company seeks to focus on a flexible mix of credit and other real estate investments associated with high-quality assets to generate current cash flow. The Company seeks to identify attractive risk-reward investment opportunities with a focus on financing middle market investments.

The Company is a fixed-term BDC, meaning it is an investment vehicle of defined duration. Following the initial closing, the Company has an investment period (the “Investment Period”) of 18 months during which it may invest capital commitments and reinvest proceeds in line with the Company’s investment strategy. The term of the Company shall not extend beyond the 4 year anniversary of the end of the Investment Period.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in these consolidated financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Principles of Consolidation

The Company will generally consolidate any wholly or substantially owned subsidiary when the design and purpose of the subsidiary is to act as an extension of the Company’s investment operations and to facilitate the execution of the Company’s investment strategy. Accordingly, the Company consolidated the results of its wholly or substantially wholly owned subsidiaries in its consolidated financial statements.

Note 3 - Related Party Transactions

Investment Advisory Agreement

The Company entered into an Investment Advisory Agreement with the Advisor in which the Advisor, subject to the overall supervision of the Company’s Board of Trustees, manages the day-to-day operations of, and provides investment advisory services to the Company. Pursuant to the Investment Advisory Agreement with the Advisor, the Company pays the Advisor a fee for investment advisory and management services consisting of two components—a base management fee (the “Management Fee”) and an incentive fee (the “Incentive Fee”).

Management Fee

The Management Fee is payable quarterly in arrears and is calculated at an annual rate of 0.50% based on the average value of the Company’s gross assets at the end of the two most recently completed quarters.

Incentive Fee

The Incentive Fee consists of two parts. The first part, referred to as the “Incentive Fee on Income,” is calculated and payable quarterly in arrears based on the Company’s “pre-incentive fee net investment income” (as defined below) for the immediately preceding quarter. The term “pre-incentive fee net investment income” means interest income, dividend income and any other income (including any other fees, such as commitment, origination, structuring, diligence and consulting fees or other fees that the Company receives from portfolio companies) accrued during the calendar quarter, minus the Company’s operating expenses for the quarter (including the Management Fee, expenses payable under the Administration Agreement and any interest expense and dividends paid on any issued and outstanding preferred share, but excluding the Incentive Fee). Pre-incentive fee net investment income includes, in the case of investments with a deferred interest feature (such as original issue discount debt instruments with payment-in-kind interest and zero coupon securities), accrued income that the Company has not yet received in cash. Pre-incentive fee net investment income does not include any realized capital gains, realized capital losses or unrealized capital appreciation or depreciation. For purposes of computing the Company’s pre-incentive fee net investment income, the calculation methodology will look through total return swaps (to the extent the Company invests in any, which it does not currently intend to) as if the Company owned the referenced assets directly.

The payment of the Incentive Fee on Income shall be subject to payment of a preferred return to investors each quarter, expressed as a quarterly rate of return on the value of the Company’s net assets at the end of the most recently completed calendar quarter, subject to a “catch up” feature (as described below). The calculation of the Incentive Fee on Income is as follows:

•No Incentive Fee on Income shall be payable to the Advisor in any calendar quarter in which the Company’s pre-incentive fee net investment income does not exceed the preferred return rate of 1.25% per quarter (or 5.00% annualized) (the “Preferred Return”) on net assets;

•100% of the dollar amount of the Company’s pre-incentive fee net investment income, if any, that exceeds the Preferred Return but is less than or equal to 1.429% in any calendar quarter (or 5.71% annualized) shall be payable to the Advisor. This portion of the Incentive Fee on Income is referred to as the “catch up” and is intended to provide the Advisor with an incentive fee of 12.5% on all of the Company’s pre-incentive fee net investment income when the Company’s pre-incentive fee net investment income reaches 1.429% (or 5.71% annualized) in any calendar quarter; and

FRANKLIN BSP REAL ESTATE DEBT BDC

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(in thousands, except share and per share amounts, percentages and as otherwise indicated)

For the period ended June 30, 2025

(Unaudited)

•For any quarter in which the Company’s pre-incentive fee net investment income exceeds 1.429% in any calendar quarter (or 5.71% annualized), the Incentive Fee on Income shall equal 12.5% of the dollar amount of the Company’s pre-incentive fee net investment income as the Preferred Return and catch up will have been achieved.

The second part of the incentive fee, referred to as the “Incentive Fee on Capital Gains During Operations,” shall be calculated based on the Company’s “Capital Gains During Operations” (as defined below) and payable in arrears as of the end of each calendar year (or upon termination of the Investment Advisory Agreement, if earlier).

“Capital Gains During Operations” means the Company’s cumulative realized capital gains from the date of the Company’s election to be regulated as a BDC through the end of such calendar year, computed net of all realized capital losses and unrealized capital depreciation on a cumulative basis. For the purpose of computing the Company’s Capital Gains During Operations, the calculation methodology will look through derivative financial instruments or swaps as if the Company owned the reference assets directly. Therefore, realized gains and realized losses on the disposition of any reference assets, as well as unrealized depreciation on reference assets retained in the derivative financial instrument or swap, will be included on a cumulative basis in the calculation of the Company’s Capital Gains During Operations.

The Incentive Fee on Capital Gains During Operations equals 12.5% of the Company’s Capital Gains During Operations, less the aggregate amount of any previously paid Incentive Fee on Capital Gains During Operations.

GAAP requires that the incentive fee accrual be calculated assuming a hypothetical liquidation of the Company based upon investments held at the end of each period. In such a calculation, in order to calculate the accrual for the Incentive Fee on Capital Gains During Operations in accordance with GAAP for a given period, the Company includes unrealized appreciation in calculating the accrual for the Incentive Fee on Capital Gains During Operations even though such unrealized appreciation is not included in calculating the capital gains incentive fee payable under the Investment Advisory Agreement. There can be no assurance that such unrealized appreciation will be realized in the future. Accordingly, the accrual for the Incentive Fee on Capital Gains During Operations, as calculated and accrued in accordance with GAAP, does not necessarily represent amounts that will be payable under the Investment Advisory Agreement.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company accrued $0.0 million and $0.2 million in Incentive Fee on Capital Gains During Operations on unrealized appreciation in accordance with GAAP, none of which was payable to the Advisor under the Investment Advisory Agreement.

On June 7, 2024 a Fee Waiver Agreement (“fee waiver”) was entered into between the Advisor and the Company. Under the terms of the fee waiver, (a) the Advisor shall waive its Management Fee indefinitely and (b) the Advisor shall waive its Incentive Fee for a period of 12 months after the initial closing of the Company’s private placement of Common Shares of beneficial interests.

Administration Agreement

The Company entered into an administration agreement with Benefit Street Partners (the “Administration Agreement”), pursuant to which Benefit Street Partners (in such capacity, the “Administrator”) provides the Company with office facilities and certain administrative services necessary for the Company to conduct its business. At the request of the Administrator, the Company may reimburse certain costs and expenses incurred in connection with this agreement.

Expense Limitation Agreement

The Company has entered into an Expense Limitation Agreement (the ‘Expense Limitation Agreement”) with the Advisor. Under the Expense Limitation Agreement, the Advisor agrees on a quarterly basis to reimburse the Company’s Specified Expenses (as defined below) to the extent that such annualized Specified Expenses in respect of the relevant quarter exceed 0.10% of the Company’s quarter-end net asset value (the “Expense Limitation”). Any reimbursement is not subject to recoupment. Specified Expenses shall mean the Company’s initial organizational and offering costs as well as its total operating expenses, inclusive of any fees the Company has agreed to bear pursuant to 4(b) of the Administration Agreement, but excluding (1) expenses directly related to the interest costs and structuring costs for borrowing and line(s) of credit, taxes, litigation or extraordinary expenses; (2) any tax, litigation and extraordinary expenses related to any structuring, litigation or other actions taken by the Advisor to preserve or enhance the value of investments for the Company’s shareholders; and (3) the incentive fees. The Expense Limitation Agreement shall be in effect during the term of the Company, unless and until the Board of Trustees approves its modification or termination.

Note 4 - Investments

Under the 1940 Act, the Company is required to separately identify non-controlled investments where it owns 5% or more of a portfolio company’s outstanding voting securities and/or had the power to exercise control over the management or policies of such portfolio company as investments in “affiliated” companies. In addition, under the 1940 Act, the Company is required to separately identify investments where it owns more than 25% of a portfolio company’s outstanding voting securities and/or had the power to exercise control over the management or policies of such portfolio company as investments in “controlled” companies. Under the 1940 Act, “non-affiliated investments” are defined as investments that are neither controlled investments nor affiliated investments. Detailed information with respect to the Company’s non-controlled, non-affiliated; non-controlled, affiliated; and controlled affiliated investments is contained in the consolidated financial statements, including the Consolidated Schedule of Investments.

Note 5 - Fair Value Measurement

In accordance with ASC Topic 820, fair value is defined as the price that the Company would receive to sell an asset or pay to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. ASC Topic 820 also establishes a framework for measuring fair value and a three-level hierarchy for fair value measurements based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability. Inputs may be observable or unobservable and refer broadly to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability as of the reporting date.

Observable inputs reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company. Unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances.

Each investment is assigned a level based upon the observability of the inputs which are significant to the overall valuation. The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized below:

•Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical investments.

•Level 2 – Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).

•Level 3 – Significant unobservable inputs (including the Company’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments at the reporting date).

The level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement is categorized in its entirety is determined on the basis of the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. For this purpose, the significance of an input is assessed against the fair value measurement in its entirety. If a fair value measurement uses observable inputs that require significant adjustment based on unobservable inputs, that measurement is a Level 3 measurement. If a fair value measurement uses price data vendors or observable market price quotations, that measurement may be a Level 1 or Level 2 measurement. Assessing the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and consideration of factors specific to the asset or liability.

The determination of what constitutes “observable” requires significant judgment by the Company. The Company considers observable data to be market data that is readily available, regularly distributed or updated, reliable and verifiable, not proprietary, and provided by independent sources that are actively involved in the relevant market.

Valuation of Investments

Investments are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Advisor, subject to the oversight of the Board, based on input from management and independent valuation firms that have been engaged to assist in the valuation of portfolio investments without readily available market quotations. This valuation process is conducted at the end of each fiscal quarter.

(in thousands, except share and per share amounts, percentages and as otherwise indicated)

For the period ended June 30, 2025

(Unaudited)

Investments for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith pursuant to Rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act and ASC Topic 820. As a general principle, the fair value of a security or other asset is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Pursuant to Rule 2a-5, the Board has designated the Advisor as the valuation designee (“Valuation Designee”) for the Company to perform the fair value determination relating to all Company investments. The Advisor may carry out its designated responsibilities as Valuation Designee through various teams and committees. The Valuation Designee’s policies and procedures govern the Valuation Designee’s selection and application of methodologies for determining and calculating the fair value of Company investments. The Valuation Designee may value Company portfolio securities for which market quotations are not readily available and other Company assets utilizing inputs from pricing sources, quotation reporting systems, valuation agents and other third-party sources (together, “Pricing Sources”).

The fair market value of the Company’s commercial real estate (“CRE”) loans and other real asset loan investments shall be determined by the Valuation Designee on a quarterly basis. Newly originated or acquired loan investments’ fair value in the month they are closed are valued by the Company’s independent valuation firm and will usually approximate the par value of the loan investment. For each quarter after the initial month in which a loan investment is closed, an independent third-party appointed by the Valuation Designee shall review and confirm the reasonableness of the Valuation Designee’s valuation of each of the Company’s CRE loan and other real asset loan investments. Updated valuations of CRE loan and other real asset loan investments will reflect changes in interest rates, spreads, collateral value, loan tests (including loan impairment testing) and metrics, risk ratings, and anticipated liquidation timing and proceeds, among other items. The fair values shall generally be determined by discounting the future contractual cash flows to the present value using a current market interest rate or spread. The market rate shall generally be determined through consideration of the interest rates for debt of comparable quality and maturity, and, where applicable, the value of the underlying real estate investment.

The fair values of loan investments based upon pricing data vendors or observable market price quotations are generally categorized as Level 1 or Level 2. Loan investments priced using internal models with significant unobservable inputs are categorized as Level 3.

The fair value of our real estate securities are determined using market-based inputs provided by external pricing vendors. The vendors utilize observable market data, including recent trades, benchmark indices, and market yield curves, to estimate valuations. The Company performs periodic reviews to ensure that the pricing sources and methodologies used are consistent. The real estate securities are generally categorized as Level 2.

The following table presents fair value measurements of investments, by investment type, as of June 30, 2025, according to the fair value hierarchy:

Overview

The Company is a non-diversified, externally managed closed-end management investment company focused on providing investors with access to a diversified portfolio comprised primarily of loans with equity upside investments in U.S. middle-market companies. We have elected to be regulated as a BDC under the 1940 Act. In addition, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, we have elected to be treated, and intend to comply with the requirements to qualify annually, as a REIT under Subchapter M of the Code. We were formed as a Delaware statutory trust on March 11, 2024. As a BDC and a REIT, we must comply with certain regulatory requirements.

We are externally managed by the Advisor. Our Advisor is a limited liability company that is registered as an investment advisor under the Advisers Act. Our Advisor oversees the management of our activities and is responsible for making investment decisions with respect to our portfolio.

The Company’s investment objectives are to seek to provide high current income while maintaining downside protection.

The Company seeks to invest in assets that will enable it to:

•provide current income in the form of regular, stable cash distributions to achieve an attractive distribution yield;

•preserve and protect invested capital, by primarily focusing on high-quality credit investments supported by current cash-flow and/or limited business plan risk in the underlying assets;

•provide an investment alternative for shareholders seeking to allocate a portion of their long-term investment portfolios to CRE debt with expected lower volatility than publicly traded securities and compelling risk-adjusted returns compared to fixed income alternatives.

The Company is a fixed-term BDC, meaning it is an investment vehicle of defined duration. Following the initial closing, the Company has an Investment Period of 18 months during which it may invest capital commitments and reinvest proceeds in line with the Company’s investment strategy. The term of the Company shall not extend beyond the 4 year anniversary of the end of the Investment Period.

We are conducting a private offering of our Common Shares in reliance on an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act to investors that are (i) accredited investors (as defined in Regulation D under the Securities Act) and (ii) in the case of Common Shares sold outside the United States, to persons that are not “U.S. persons” (as defined in Regulation S under the Securities Act). At the closing of any private placement, each investor will make a Capital Commitment to purchase Common Shares pursuant to a Subscription Agreement entered into with us. Investors will be required to fund drawdowns to purchase shares of Common Shares up to the amount of their respective Capital Commitments each time we deliver the Drawdown Notice to the investors.

We are not aware of any material trends or uncertainties, favorable or unfavorable, other than national economic conditions affecting real estate generally, that may be reasonably anticipated to have a material impact on either capital resources or the revenues or income to be derived from our real estate debt investments or real estate-related securities, other than those referred to in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Key Components of our Results of Operations

Investments

The Company’s investment strategy is to originate, acquire, finance and manage a portfolio of primarily CRE debt investments, focused on senior secured, CRE loans diversified across geography. The Company focuses its investments in the middle market across a diversified mix of asset classes, but maintains a focus on multifamily lending. It is expected that most of the borrowers will be eligible portfolio companies, as such term is defined in the 1940 Act. To a lesser extent, the Company may invest in, or originate, other real-estate related debt and equity investments, which may include subordinated debt, CMBS and CLOs. The Company believes its real estate-related debt and equity investments will help manage cash before investing subscription proceeds into investments while also seeking attractive current income.

The Company seeks to focus on a flexible mix of real estate investments, secured by high-quality assets to generate current cash flow. The Company seeks to identify attractive risk-reward investment opportunities by financing middle market investment companies. The Company expects to create synergies with Benefit Street Partner’s commercial real estate team’s existing debt sourcing capabilities by leveraging its significant scale and existing relationships to source high quality lending opportunities.

During periods in which the Advisor determines that economic or market conditions are unfavorable to shareholders and a defensive strategy would benefit the Company, the Company may temporarily depart from its investment strategy. During these periods, subject to compliance with the 1940 Act, the Company may expand or change its investment strategy and target assets, including by investing all or any portion of its assets in U.S. government securities, including bills, notes and bonds differing as to maturity and rates of interest that are either issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Treasury or by U.S. government agencies; non-U.S. government securities that have received the highest investment grade credit rating; certificates of deposit issued against funds deposited in a bank or a savings and loan association; commercial paper; bankers’ acceptances; fixed time deposits; shares of money market funds; credit-linked notes; repurchase agreements with respect to any of the foregoing; or any other fixed income securities that the Advisor considers consistent with this temporary strategy.

Senior secured loans generally are senior debt instruments that rank ahead of subordinated debt and equity in priority of payments and are generally secured by liens on the operating assets of a borrower which may include inventory, receivables, plant, property and equipment. Mezzanine debt is subordinated to senior loans and is generally unsecured.

Revenue

The Company generates revenue primarily in the form of interest income on debt investments it holds. In addition, the Company generates income from dividends or distributions on income on direct equity investments, capital gains on the sales of loans and equity securities and various loan origination and other fees. The Company’s debt investments generally have a stated term of two to five years and typically bear interest at a floating rate usually determined on the basis of a benchmark such as Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”). Interest on these debt investments is paid quarterly. In some instances, the Company receives payments on its debt investments based on scheduled amortization of the outstanding balances. In addition, the Company may receive repayments of some of its debt investments prior to their scheduled maturity date. The frequency or volume of these repayments is expected to fluctuate significantly from period to period. The Company’s portfolio activity also reflects the proceeds of sales of securities. The Company may also generate revenue in the form of commitment, origination, amendment, structuring, syndication or due diligence fees, fees for providing managerial assistance and consulting fees.

As part of the monitoring process, the Advisor has developed risk policies pursuant to which it regularly assesses the risk profile of each of our loan investments. The Advisor has developed a classification system to group investments into five categories. The investments are evaluated regularly and assigned a category based on certain credit metrics. The Advisor’s ratings do not constitute any rating of investments by a nationally recognized statistical rating organization or represent or reflect any third-party assessment of any of our investments. Please see below for a description of the four categories of the Advisor’s Internal Risk Rating system:

Category 1 – In the opinion of the Advisor, investments in Category 1 involve the least amount of risk relative to the Company’s initial cost basis at the time of origination or acquisition. Category 1 investments exceed fundamental performance expectations and/or capital gain expected. Trends and risk factors since time of investment are favorable.

Category 2 – In the opinion of the Advisor, investments in Category 2 involve a level of risk relative to the Company’s initial cost basis at the time of origination or acquisition. Category 2 investments are Performing consistent with expectations and a full return of principal and interest expected. Trends and risk factors are neutral to favorable. All new originated or acquired investments are initially included in Category 2.

Category 3 – In the opinion of the Advisor, investments in Category 3 indicate that Performing investments requiring closer monitoring. Trends and risk factors show some deterioration.

Category 4 – In the opinion of the Advisor, investments in Category 4 are underperforming investment with the potential of some interest loss but still expecting a positive return on investment. Trends and risk factors are negative.
