Summary of First Quarter 2026 Results

The Company's total economic return for the first quarter of 2026 of $(0.34) per common share was comprised of a decrease in book value of $(0.85) per common share offset by dividends declared of $0.51 per common share. The decrease in book value per common share for the first quarter of 2026 was largely driven by a net loss of $(140) million on the Company's investment portfolio, net of hedges, resulting from widening mortgage spreads late in the quarter. The Company grew its capital base by $442 million, using the proceeds to opportunistically add investments of $6 billion, net of sales. The Company's adjusted leverage increased to 8.6 times equity primarily due to its use of repurchase agreement borrowings to partially finance these purchases.

The Company's interest income continued to increase as a result of its deployment of capital into its Agency MBS purchases over the quarter. In addition, the Federal Reserve's rate cuts in 2025 continued to benefit the Company's repurchase agreement financing costs, which declined 33 basis points for the first quarter of 2026 compared to the prior quarter. Operating expenses for the first quarter of 2026 included an increase of $3.4 million in share-based compensation expense, largely due to accelerated vesting conditions of equity grants associated with the departure of the Company's former chief financial officer.

The following tables summarize the changes in the Company's financial position during the first quarter of 2026:

(1)Average balance for assets is calculated as a simple average of the daily amortized cost and excludes securities pending settlement if applicable.

(2)Average balance for liabilities is calculated as a simple average of the daily borrowings outstanding during the period.

(3)Effective yield is calculated by dividing annualized interest income by the average balance of asset type outstanding during the reporting period. Unscheduled adjustments to premium/discount amortization/accretion, such as for prepayment compensation, are not annualized in this calculation.

(4)Financing cost is calculated by dividing annualized interest expense by the total average balance of borrowings outstanding during the period with an assumption of 360 days in a year.

(5)CMBS IO ("Interest only") includes Agency and non-Agency issued securities.

(6)Represents a non-GAAP measure. See "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" below for a reconciliation to the most comparable GAAP financial measure.

These hedge gains are not included in the Company's current or future earnings available for distribution ("EAD"), a non-GAAP measure, but will be part of the Company's future distribution requirements. The table below provides the projected amortization of the Company's net deferred tax hedge gains that may be recognized as taxable income over the periods indicated, given conditions known as of March 31, 2026; however, uncertainty inherent in the forward interest rate curve makes future realized gains and losses difficult to estimate, and as such, these projections are subject to change for any given period.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to reporting the Company’s financial results determined in accordance with GAAP, management of the Company believes that investors’ understanding of our operating results may be enhanced by the use of non-GAAP financial measures, which are used by management internally, along with GAAP measures, to evaluate our performance. Our non-GAAP financial measures include earnings available for distribution (“EAD”) to common shareholders (including per common share) and economic net interest income and the related metric economic net interest spread. Management believes these non-GAAP financial measures may be useful to investors because they are viewed by management as additional measures of the investment portfolio’s return.

Drop income generated by TBA dollar roll positions, which is included in "gain (loss) on derivatives instruments, net" on the Company's consolidated statements of comprehensive income, is included in EAD because management views drop income as the economic equivalent of net interest income (interest income less implied financing cost) on the underlying Agency security from trade date to settlement date. However, drop income does not represent the total realized gain/loss from the Company’s investments in TBA securities.

Management also includes net periodic interest from its interest rate swaps, which is included in "gain (loss) on derivatives instruments, net," in EAD and economic net interest income because interest rate swaps are used by the Company to economically hedge the impact of changing interest rates on its borrowing costs from repurchase agreements, and including net periodic interest from interest rate swaps is a helpful indicator of the Company’s total financing cost in addition to GAAP interest expense.

Non-GAAP financial measures are not a substitute for GAAP measures and may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies. In addition, other companies, including in our industry, may calculate comparable measures differently, which reduces their usefulness as comparative measures. Investors should not rely on any single financial measure when evaluating our business. These non-GAAP measures should be considered as supplemental in nature and not as a substitute for our operating results in accordance with GAAP.

Reconciliations of each non-GAAP measure to certain GAAP financial measures are provided below.
