“We are pleased with Ladder’s second quarter results, as we generated strong returns with low leverage and a large cash position. We were also pleased with the execution of our seventh unsecured corporate bond issuance and the resulting positive actions received from all three rating agencies, moving Ladder one step closer to an investment grade credit rating. With our balance sheet further strengthened, we are well-positioned to capitalize on investment opportunities as they arise.” said Brian Harris, Ladder’s Chief Executive Officer.
