10 Recent Accomplishments Have the Ability to Meaningfully Improve Run-Rate Earnings OVER THE LAST FEW QUARTERS WE HAVE CONTINUED TO EXECUTE ON OUR STRATEGIC PRIORITIES, WHICH HAVE REPOSITIONED OUR BALANCE SHEET WITH THE GOAL OF IMPROVING OUR RUN-RATE EARNINGS(1) AND DIVIDENDS OVER TIME(2) ✓Resolved three of four nonaccrual loans resulting in improved run-rate earnings and significantly reducing nonaccruals ratio to approximately 2.7%(3) of total loan portfolio. ✓Fully repaid $225 million of borrowings under the higher-cost senior secured term loan facilities, significantly improving our net interest margin and our debt capacity allowing for further portfolio growth in a rising rate environment. ✓Raised over $200 million of preferred equity capital to support growth and to reduce higher-cost corporate debt, while benefiting from improved operating leverage as an internally-managed REIT. ✓Released approximately $180 million of capital through refinancing two de-levered legacy funding vehicles(4), which resulted in lower cost of funds and provided liquidity to repay higher-cost corporate debt and additional portfolio growth. OUR ACCOMPLISHMENTS HAVE POSITIONED GRANITE POINT WELL TO OFFSET THE IMPACTS OF THE RISING INTEREST RATE ENVIRONMENT AND TO CONTINUE EXECUTING ON OUR PRIORITIES TO IMPROVE RUN-RATE EARNINGS

ACTIONS WE HAVE ALREADY TAKEN, WHEN FULLY-REFLECTED IN OUR FINANCIAL RESULTS, HAVE THE ABILITY TO MEANINGFULLY INCREASE OUR RUN-RATE PROFITABILITY* * Data in this slide is estimated as of May 10, 2022.

The timing and magnitude of any change in interest rates could result in materially different results. • Our recent actions, when fully-reflected in our financial results, have the ability to improve our quarterly run-rate net interest income by an estimated $0.05 – $0.06 per share.

13 Further Actions May Generate Additional Benefits KEY PRIORITIES AND GOALS(10) • Resolving the one remaining nonaccrual loan and redeploying the capital invested in it into earning-assets can generate incremental run-rate profitability. – We are actively working to resolve our one remaining nonaccrual loan on a retail property in Pasadena, CA. The loan has a $114 million UPB and approximately $100 million carrying value and is currently held unlevered. • We are actively pursuing additional opportunities to further rationalize our funding and increase total debt-to- equity leverage from 2.5x in Q1 2022 closer to our target range of 3.0x – 3.5x, which would afford additional portfolio growth opportunities and could incrementally improve our run-rate profitability. • Our strategy emphasizes increasing our run-rate earnings and dividends and to help close the gap between our stock price and book value. • Growing our business could potentially provide opportunities to realize additional operating leverage benefits as an internally-managed company. WE BELIEVE THAT OUR RECENT ACCOMPLISHMENTS, COMBINED WITH THE ADDITIONAL STEPS WE ARE ACTIVELY PURSUING, HAVE THE ABILITY TO GENERATE ATTRACTIVE TOTAL RETURNS TO OUR STOCKHOLDERS


 
ILLUSTRATIVE EXAMPLE WITH POTENTIAL TOTAL RETURN OF 68%(12) Potential Attractive Total Return (11) 14 • Our overall objective is to deliver attractive risk-adjusted total returns to our stockholders by generating an attractive dividend income stream while preserving our investors’ capital over time. • Our recent actions have been taken with the goals of improving our run-rate earnings and dividends and to help close the gap between our stock price and book value. • While we believe that our recent accomplishments have the ability to meaningfully improve our run-rate profitability, further actions may generate additional benefits. • Based on current market price, Granite Point’s stock may offer a potential attractive total return. May 6, 2022 Stock Price $10.17 Stock Price Appreciation to Adjusted Book Value of $5.98 Annual Cash Dividend $1.00 Adjusted Book Value Per Share of $16.15 Total Implied Value $17.15 per share

▪ Beginning with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, and for all subsequent reporting periods ending on or after December 31, 2021, we have elected to present Distributable Earnings, a measure that is not prepared in accordance with GAAP, as a supplemental method of evaluating our operating performance. Distributable Earnings replaces our prior presentation of Core Earnings with no changes to the definition. In order to maintain our status as a REIT, we are required to distribute at least 90% of our taxable income as dividends. Distributable Earnings is intended to serve as a general proxy for our taxable income, though it is not a perfect substitute for it, and, as such, is considered a key indicator of our ability to generate sufficient income to pay our common dividends and in determining the amount of such dividends, which is the primary focus of income-oriented investors who comprise a meaningful segment of our stockholder base. We believe providing Distributable Earnings on a supplemental basis to our net income (loss) and cash flow from operating activities, as determined in accordance with GAAP, is helpful to stockholders in assessing the overall performance of our business. ▪ We use Distributable Earnings to evaluate our performance, excluding the effects of certain transactions and GAAP adjustments we believe are not necessarily indicative of our current loan portfolio and operations. For reporting purposes, we define Distributable Earnings as net income (loss) attributable to our stockholders, computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding: (i) non-cash equity compensation expenses; (ii) depreciation and amortization; (iii) any unrealized gains (losses) or other similar non-cash items that are included in net income for the applicable reporting period (regardless of whether such items are included in other comprehensive income (loss) or in net income for such period); and (iv) certain non-cash items and one-time expenses. Distributable Earnings may also be adjusted from time to time for reporting purposes to exclude one-time events pursuant to changes in GAAP and certain other material non-cash income or expense items approved by a majority of our independent directors. The exclusion of depreciation and amortization from the calculation of Distributable Earnings only applies to debt investments related to real estate to the extent we foreclose upon the property or properties underlying such debt investments.

▪ While Distributable Earnings excludes the impact of the unrealized non-cash current provision for credit losses, we expect to only recognize such potential credit losses in Distributable Earnings if and when such amounts are deemed non-recoverable. This is generally at the time a loan is repaid, or in the case of foreclosure, when the underlying asset is sold, but nonrecoverability may also be concluded if, in our determination, it is nearly certain that all amounts due will not be collected. The realized loss amount reflected in Distributable Earnings will equal the difference between the cash received, or expected to be received, and the carrying value of the asset, and is reflective of our economic experience as it relates to the ultimate realization of the loan. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, we recorded a $(3.7) million provision for credit losses, which has been excluded from Distributable Earnings consistent with other unrealized gains (losses) and other non-cash items pursuant to our existing policy for reporting Distributable Earnings referenced above. Pursuant to our existing policy for reporting Distributable Earnings referenced above, during the three months ended March 31, 2022, we recorded a $(10.1) million write-off on loan sale, which we included in Distributable Earnings because we did not collect all amounts due at the time the loan was sold. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, we recorded a $(5.8) million loss on early extinguishment of debt, which has been excluded from Distributable Earnings consistent with certain one-time expenses pursuant to our existing policy for reporting Distributable Earnings as a helpful indicator in assessing the overall run-rate operating performance of our business. ▪ Distributable Earnings does not represent net income (loss) or cash flow from operating activities and should not be considered as an alternative to GAAP net income (loss), or an indication of our GAAP cash flows from operations, a measure of our liquidity, or an indication of funds available for our cash needs. In addition, our methodology for calculating Distributable Earnings may differ from the methodologies employed by other companies to calculate the same or similar supplemental performance measures, and, accordingly, our reported Distributable Earnings may not be comparable to the Distributable Earnings reported by other companies.
