stockholders for the third quarter 2016 of ($100.4) million, or ($0.56) per diluted share. NorthStar Realty

David T. Hamamoto, Chairman,
commented, "We continue to make great progress on our proposed
tri-party merger with NSAM and Colony Capital. We are working
diligently toward its successful completion in January 2017 and on integration plans to achieve
substantial merger synergies. More than ever, we are confident the
combination of these great companies, as an internally managed
REIT, will result in a world-class real estate and investment
management platform."
Jonathan A. Langer, Chief
Executive Officer, commented, "In addition to our efforts in
completing the tri-party merger, we have continued to remain
focused on asset monetization opportunities. In particular, we are
extremely pleased to partner with Taikang Insurance Group, one of
China's leading insurance
companies, in our overall healthcare real estate portfolio. Taikang
shares our vision regarding the long-term value proposition
represented by investing in a diversified U.S. healthcare real
estate portfolio and we look forward to a fruitful relationship
with them. When also factoring in the liquidity from the medical
office building portfolio sale, we have again dramatically enhanced
an already attractive liquidity profile which provides for
significant financial flexibility and future earnings potential. As
powerful as this liquidity position is, our currently un-invested
cash of over $1 billion has resulted
in a significant drag on this quarter's earnings. Additionally,
while the majority of our owned real estate again exhibited solid
performance in the third quarter, our hotels continued to be
impacted by displacement of room revenue resulting from planned
renovations and sluggish hospitality market conditions."

NorthStar")

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We use CAD and NOI, each a non-GAAP measure, to evaluate our
profitability.
Cash Available for Distribution
We believe that CAD provides investors and management with a
meaningful indicator of operating performance. We also
believe that CAD is useful because it adjusts for a variety of
items that are consistent with presenting a measure of operating
performance (such as transaction costs, N-Star CDO equity
interests, depreciation and amortization, equity-based
compensation, realized gain (loss) on investments, provision for
loan losses, asset impairment, non-recurring bad debt expense and
certain interest income and expense items). We adjust for
transaction costs because these costs are not a meaningful
indicator of our operating performance. For instance, these
transaction costs include costs such as professional fees
associated with new investments or restructuring of investments,
which are expenses related to specific transactions. We
adjust for N-Star CDO equity interests to represent the net
economic interest generated from the N-Star CDO equity interests.
This adjustment is a component of our ongoing return on such
investments, and therefore, is adjusted in CAD as it provides
investors and management with a meaningful indicator of our
operating performance. Furthermore, CAD adjusts N-Star CDO bond
discounts to record such investments on an effective yield basis
over the expected weighted average life of the investment.
N-Star CDO bond discounts relates to repurchased CDO bonds of
consolidated CDO financing transactions at a discount to par.
These CDO bonds typically have a low interest rate and the majority
of the return is generated from repurchasing the CDO bonds at a
discount to expected recovery value. Because the return
generated through the accretion of the discount is a meaningful
contributor to our operating performance, such accretion is
adjusted in CAD. The computation for the accretion of the
discount under U.S. GAAP and CAD is the same. However, for
CDO financing transactions that are consolidated under U.S. GAAP,
the CDO bonds are not presented as an investment but rather are
eliminated in our consolidated financial statements. In
addition, we adjust for distributions and adjustments to joint
venture partners, which represent the net return generated from our
investments allocated to our non-controlling interests. For
our owned hotels, our CAD calculation does not make an adjustment
for furniture, fixtures and equipment (FF&E) reserves. CAD may
fluctuate from period to period based upon a variety of factors,
including, but not limited to, the timing and amount of
investments, repayments and asset sales, capital raised, use of
leverage, changes in the expected yield of investments and the
overall conditions in commercial real estate and the economy
generally. Management also believes that quarterly
distributions are principally based on operating performance and
our board of directors includes CAD as one of several metrics it
reviews to determine quarterly distributions to stockholders.
We calculate CAD by subtracting from or adding to net income
(loss) attributable to common stockholders, non-controlling
interests and the following items: depreciation and amortization
items including straight-line rental income or expense,
amortization of above/below market leases, amortization of deferred
financing costs, amortization of discount on financings and other
and equity-based compensation; net economic interest generated from
N-Star CDO equity interests; accretion of consolidated N-Star CDO
bond discounts; net interest income in consolidated N-Star CDOs;
unrealized gain (loss) from the change in fair value; realized gain
(loss) on investments and other, excluding accelerated amortization
related to sales of CDO bonds or other investments; provision for
loan losses, net; impairment on depreciable property; non-recurring
bad debt expense; acquisition gains or losses; distributions and
adjustments related to joint venture partners; transaction costs;
foreign currency gains (losses); impairment on goodwill and other
intangible assets; 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) attributable to common stockholders, determined in
accordance with U.S. GAAP, as an indicator of operating
performance. In addition, our methodology for calculating CAD
involves subjective judgment and discretion and 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.
The following table presents a reconciliation of CAD to net
income (loss) attributable to common stockholders for the three
months ended September 30, 2016
(dollars in thousands):

For CAD, discounts
expected to be realized on N-Star CDO bonds for consolidated CDOs
are accreted on an effective yield basis based on expected

accretion is already included in net income attributable to common
stockholders.

of real estate investments, a $(0.4) million loss related to the
foreclosure of real estate, $(5.4) million non-cash loss related to
securities in our consolidated CDOs, $(1.3) million loss related to
the sale of manufactured homes, $0.5 million of other real estate
gains and includes a $3.1 million gain related to acceleration of
discount and fees.

|
(5)
|
CAD per share does
not take into account any potential dilution from our outstanding
exchangeable notes or restricted stock units subject to performance
metrics not currently achieved.
|
Net Operating Income (NOI)
We believe NOI is a useful metric of the operating performance
of our real estate portfolio in the aggregate. Portfolio
results and performance metrics represent 100% for all consolidated
investments and represent our ownership percentage for
unconsolidated joint ventures. Net operating income
represents total property and related revenues, adjusted for: (i)
amortization of above/below market rent; (ii) straight line rent;
(iii) other items such as adjustments related to joint ventures and
non-recurring bad debt expense; and (iv) less property operating
expenses. However, the usefulness of NOI is limited because
it excludes general and administrative costs, interest expense,
transaction costs, depreciation and amortization expense, realized
gains (losses) from the sale of properties and other items under
U.S. GAAP and capital expenditures and leasing costs necessary to
maintain the operating performance of properties, all of which may
be significant economic costs. 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 comparable companies,
including other REITs, when calculating the same or similar
supplemental financial measures and may not be comparable with
these companies.
The following table presents a reconciliation of NOI to property
and other related revenues less property operating expenses for our
