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."
Proposed Merger - Colony NorthStar, Inc. ("Colony NorthStar")
On June 2, 2016, NorthStar Realty, NorthStar Asset Management Group Inc. and Colony Capital, Inc. entered into a definitive agreement to create a world-class, internally-managed, diversified real estate and investment management platform.

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 maturity. For deconsolidated N-Star CDOs, N-Star CDO bond accretion is already included in net income attributable to common stockholders. |

(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 property types in our real estate segment for the three months ended September 30, 2016 (dollars in thousands):

The factors set forth in the Risk Factors section and otherwise described in our filings with the SEC could cause our actual results to differ significantly from those contained in any forward looking statement contained in this press release. There can be no assurance that the merger will in fact be consummated.
The foregoing list of factors is not exhaustive. Additional information about these and other factors can be found in each of the Company's, NSAM's and Colony's reports filed from time to time with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC").
