Additionally, RAIT originated $65.2 million of fixed-rate conduit loans and sold $116.3 million CMBS loans during the quarter. Our CMBS loan sale business remained profitable despite the dramatic widening of bond spreads. We also sold RAIT properties which generated $6.3 million of CAD gains.

| Cash Available for Distribution per share(2)(3) | $0.27 | $0.00 | $0.83 | $0.45 | ||||||
| (1) | Cash available for distribution, or CAD, is a non-GAAP financial measure. We believe that CAD provides investors and management with a meaningful indicator of operating performance. Management also uses CAD, among other measures, to evaluate profitability and our board of trustees considers CAD in determining our quarterly cash dividends. We also believe that CAD is useful because it adjusts for a variety of noncash items (such as depreciation and amortization, equity-based compensation, realized gain (loss) on assets, provision for loan losses and non-cash interest income and expense items). Furthermore, CAD removes the effect of our previous consolidation of the legacy Taberna securitizations which we deconsolidated as part of our exit of the Taberna business in December 2014. | |
| We calculate CAD by subtracting from or adding to net income (loss) attributable to common shareholders the following items: depreciation and amortization items including, depreciation and amortization, straight-line rental income or expense, amortization of in place leases, amortization of deferred financing costs, amortization of discount on financings and equity-based compensation; changes in the fair value of our financial instruments, including such changes reflected in our such Taberna securitizations; net interest income from such Taberna securitizations; realized noncash gain (loss) on assets and other; provision for loan losses; impairment on depreciable property; acquisition gains or losses and transaction costs; certain fee income eliminated in consolidation that is attributable to third parties and one-time events pursuant to changes in U.S. GAAP and certain other non-recurring items. | ||
| CAD 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 CAD may differ from the methodologies used by other comparable companies, including other REITs, when calculating the same or similar supplemental financial measures and may not be comparable with these companies. In these Schedules, references to “we”, “us”, and “our” refer to RAIT Financial Trust and its subsidiaries. | ||

| Total adjustments | $ 413,433 | $ 4.55 | ||
| Adjusted book value | $ 584,327 | $ 6.43 | ||
| (1) | Management views adjusted book value as a useful and appropriate supplement to shareholders’ equity and book value per share. The measure serves as an additional measure of our value because it facilitates evaluation of us without the effects of various items that we are required to record in accordance with GAAP but which have limited economic impact on our business. Those adjustments primarily reflect accumulated depreciation and amortization, the valuation of long-term derivative instruments and a valuation of our recurring collateral and property management fees. Adjusted book value is a non-GAAP financial measurement, and does not purport to be an alternative to reported shareholders’ equity, determined in accordance with GAAP, as a measure of book value. Adjusted book value should be reviewed in connection with shareholders’ equity as set forth in our consolidated balance sheets, to help analyze our value to investors. Adjusted book value may be defined in various ways throughout the REIT industry. Investors should consider these differences when comparing our adjusted book value to that of other REITs. | |
| (2) | Based on 90,898,034 common shares outstanding as of September 30, 2015. | |
| (3) | Based on 5,306,084 Series A preferred shares, 2,340,969 Series B preferred shares, and 1,640,425 Series C preferred shares outstanding as of September 30, 2015, all of which have a liquidation preference of $25.00 per share. | |
| (4) | Includes the estimated value of the (1) property management fees to be received by RAIT as of September 30, 2015 from RAIT Residential and Urban Retail, the RAIT I and RAIT II securitizations, value ascribed to fixed-rate CMBS loan sale business and (2) advisory fees to be received by RAIT from IRT as of September 30, 2015. The other item included is the incremental market value of RAIT’s ownership of 7.3 million shares of IRT common stock over RAIT’s book value for these shares at September 30, 2015. We did not tax effect the valuation of these items as we have loss carryforwards that could absorb the potential gain. | |

| (1) | We believe that funds from operations, or FFO, which is a non-GAAP measure, is an additional appropriate measure of the operating performance of a REIT. We compute FFO in accordance with the standards established by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, or NAREIT, as net income or loss allocated to common shares (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding real estate-related depreciation and amortization expense, gains or losses on sales of real estate and the cumulative effect of changes in accounting principles. Our management utilizes FFO as a measure of our operating performance. FFO is not an equivalent to net income or cash generated from operating activities determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Furthermore, FFO does not represent amounts available for management’s discretionary use because of needed capital replacement or expansion, debt service obligations or other commitments or uncertainties. FFO should not be considered as an alternative to net income as an indicator of our operating performance or as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities as a measure of our liquidity. | |
