MANAGEMENT REMARKS
"Global fixed income and equity markets were volatile in the third quarter as investors struggled to weigh the impact of significant strains in emerging market economies and commodity price declines on U.S. economic growth and the Federal Reserve’s stance on monetary policy," commented Gary Kain, President and Chief Investment Officer. "Against this backdrop, spreads on agency and non-agency MBS, investment grade corporate debt, CMBS, high-yield bonds and emerging market debt widened during the quarter. This spread widening was the primary driver of the decline in MTGE’s book value during the quarter."
"Importantly, while spread widening negatively impacts near term book value, it also improves our earnings outlook as investment returns on both agency and non-agency assets increase," continued Mr. Kain. "In addition, the performance and return on our credit sensitive assets will be further supported by the continued strength in housing fundamentals, with house prices, delinquency rates and household formation all showing improvement."
"During the third quarter, we bought back 1.2 million shares of our common stock, or approximately 2.3% of shares outstanding as of June 30, 2015, for $18.1 million," commented Malon Wilkus, Chair and Chief Executive Officer. "We believe the accretion from share repurchases is an important element in maximizing long term shareholder value. Looking ahead, we will continue to evaluate common stock repurchases against a number of variables, including our price-to-book ratio, current market conditions and other investment opportunities."

As of September 30, 2015, the Company's investment portfolio included $3.4 billion of agency MBS, $0.5 billion of net long TBA securities, $1.5 billion of non-agency securities and $0.1 billion of MSR.
As of September 30, 2015, the Company's agency investment portfolio, inclusive of net long TBA, was comprised of $3.8 billion of fixed rate and $0.1 billion of adjustable rate securities.

As of September 30, 2015, the Company's fixed rate agency investments were comprised of $1.0 billion 15 year securities, $0.2 billion 20 year securities, $2.0 billion 30 year securities, $(0.3) billion 15 year net short TBA securities and $0.8 billion 30 year net long TBA securities. As of September 30, 2015, 15 year fixed rate investments represented 19% of the Company's agency investment portfolio, a decrease from 25% as of June 30, 2015, and 30 year fixed rate investments represented 72% of the Company's agency investment portfolio, an increase from 66% as of June 30, 2015.
As of September 30, 2015, the Company's agency fixed rate mortgage assets, inclusive of the net TBA position, had a weighted average coupon of 3.54%, compared to 3.51% as of June 30, 2015, comprised of the following weighted average coupons:
• | 3.35% for 15 year securities; |
• | 3.32% for 20 year securities; and |
• | 3.62% for 30 year securities. |
As of September 30, 2015, the Company's $1.5 billion non-agency portfolio was comprised of approximately 30% Alt-A, 30% prime, 15% subprime, 14% credit risk transfer and 11% option ARM securities.
The Company accounts for TBA securities as derivative instruments and recognizes dollar roll income and other realized and unrealized gains and losses on TBA securities in other gains (losses), net on the Company's consolidated statements of operations. As of September 30, 2015, the Company's net long TBA mortgage portfolio had a fair value and cost basis of approximately $0.5 billion, with a net carrying value of $10.4 million reported in derivative assets/(liabilities) on the Company's consolidated balance sheets.
AGENCY CONSTANT PREPAYMENT RATES
The actual CPR for the Company's agency portfolio during the third quarter of 2015 was 11.0%, up from 10.2% during the second quarter. The CPR published in October 2015 for the Company's agency portfolio held as of September 30, 2015 was 9.6%, and the weighted average projected CPR for the remaining life of the Company's agency securities held as of September 30, 2015 was 8.6%, compared to 8.1% as of June 30, 2015.
The Company amortizes and accretes premiums and discounts associated with purchases of agency securities into interest income over the estimated life of such securities based on actual and projected CPRs using the effective yield method. As such, slower actual and projected prepayments can have a meaningful positive impact, while faster actual or projected prepayments can have a meaningful negative impact on the Company's agency asset yields.
The amortization of premiums (net of any accretion of discounts) on the agency portfolio for the quarter was $(8.2) million, or $(0.16) per common share. The Company recognized approximately $(1.6) million, or $(0.03) per common share, of "catch-up" premium amortization expense during the quarter, as projected CPR estimates rose for the Company's existing agency securities during the quarter. The weighted average cost basis of the Company's agency securities was 104.9% of par and the unamortized agency net premium was $156.0 million as of September 30, 2015.

The Company's average annualized net interest rate spread and dollar roll income for the third quarter was 2.27%, down from 2.48% in the second quarter. Excluding dollar rolls, the Company's average net interest rate spread was 2.22% for the third quarter, down from 2.36% for the second quarter.
The Company's average asset yield for the third quarter was 3.31%, compared to 3.39% for the second quarter. Excluding the impact of "catch-up" premium amortization benefit (expense) recognized due to changes in projected CPR estimates, the Company's annualized weighted average yield was 3.44% for the third quarter, compared to 3.27% for the second quarter. The Company's asset yield as of September 30, 2015 was 3.45%, down 2 bps from 3.47% as of June 30, 2015.
The Company's average cost of funds was 1.09% for the third quarter, compared to 1.03% for the second quarter. The Company's average cost of funds includes the cost of repurchase agreements, FHLB advances and effective interest rate swaps (including those used to hedge the Company's dollar roll funded assets) measured against the Company's daily weighted average repurchase agreement and Federal Home Loan Bank advances balances outstanding. The Company's average cost of funds of 1.16% as of September 30, 2015 was up 11 bps from 1.05% at June 30, 2015.
LEVERAGE AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES
As of September 30, 2015, $3.6 billion of the Company's repurchase agreements and $0.5 billion of Federal Home Loan Bank advances were used to fund purchases of agency and non-agency securities, while the remaining $0.2 billion of borrowings under repurchase agreements were used to fund purchases of U.S. Treasury securities and are not included in the Company's measurements of leverage. Including TBA securities, the Company's "at risk" leverage ratio was 4.7x as of September 30, 2015 and averaged 4.4x during the third quarter.
The $3.6 billion borrowed under agency and non-agency repurchase agreements as of September 30, 2015 had remaining maturities consisting of:
• | $2.0 billion of one month or less; |
• | $0.3 billion between one and two months; |
• | $0.3 billion between two and three months; |
• | $0.3 billion between three and six months; |
• | $0.1 billion between nine and twelve months; and |

As of September 30, 2015, the Company had repurchase agreements with 32 financial institutions and less than 5% of the Company's equity was at risk with any one counterparty, with the top five counterparties representing less than 23% of the Company's equity at risk.
The Company's interest rate swap positions as of September 30, 2015 totaled $2.3 billion in notional amount, with a weighted average fixed pay rate of 1.98%, a weighted average receive rate of 0.32% and a weighted average maturity of 4.2 years. Excluding forward starting swaps, the Company's interest rate swap portfolio had a notional balance of $1.6 billion and an average fixed pay rate of 1.36% as of September 30, 2015. The Company enters into interest rate swaps with longer maturities with the intention of protecting its net book value and longer term earnings potential.
The Company utilizes interest rate swaptions to mitigate the Company's exposure to larger, more rapid increases in interest rates. As of September 30, 2015, the Company held payer swaption contracts with a total notional amount of $0.4 billion and a weighted average expiration of 0.8 years. These swaptions have an underlying weighted average interest rate swap term of 7.8 years and a weighted average pay rate of 3.40% as of September 30, 2015.
In addition to its interest rate swaps and swaptions, the Company held a $(0.6) billion net short position in U.S. Treasury securities and futures as of September 30, 2015.
As of September 30, 2015, 72% of the Company's combined funding and TBA balance was hedged through a combination of interest rate swaps, interest rate swaptions, U.S. Treasury securities and futures and interest only swaps.
SERVICING
As of September 30, 2015, RCS managed a servicing portfolio of approximately 64,000 residential mortgage loans, representing approximately $13.0 billion in unpaid principal balances. During the third quarter, the Company recorded $11.6 million in servicing income and $(15.6) million in servicing expense, which included $(2.6) million in realization of cash flows on MSR.
OTHER GAINS (LOSSES), NET
The Company has elected to record all investments at fair value with all changes in fair value recorded in current GAAP earnings as other gains (losses). In addition, the Company has not designated any derivatives as hedges for GAAP accounting purposes and therefore all changes in the fair value of derivatives are recorded in current GAAP earnings as other gains (losses).
During the third quarter, the Company recorded $(45.8) million in other gains (losses), net, or $(0.90) per common share. Other gains (losses), net, for the quarter are comprised of:
• | $0.2 million of net realized gain on agency and non-agency securities; |
• | $32.6 million of net unrealized gain on agency securities; |
• | $(13.1) million of net unrealized loss on non-agency securities; |
• | $(3.8) million of net realized loss on periodic settlements of interest rate swaps; |
• | $(27.7) million of net realized loss on other derivatives and securities; |
• | $(18.7) million of net unrealized loss on other derivatives and securities; |
• | $(5.3) million of unrealized loss on mortgage servicing rights; and |
• | $(10.0) million impairment charge on RCS-related intangible asset. |
Realized and unrealized net losses on other derivatives and securities during the third quarter primarily include $(46.2) million of net loss on interest rate swaps and swaptions and $(17.8) million of net loss on U.S. Treasury

securities and futures, offset in part by $15.0 million of net gain on TBA mortgage positions (including $3.2 million of dollar roll income).
During the third quarter, the Company recorded a $(0.20) per common share impairment charge on intangible assets based on a revised estimated fair value of RCS’ servicing licenses and approvals. The Company reduced its estimate of the intangible asset’s fair value during the third quarter as a result of certain financial and economic factors, including anticipated acquisitions of mortgage servicing rights.
ESTIMATED TAXABLE INCOME
REIT taxable income for the third quarter is estimated at $0.38 per common share, or $0.87 higher than GAAP net loss of $(0.49) per common share.
The primary differences between GAAP net income and estimated REIT taxable net income are (i) unrealized gains and losses associated with investment securities, interest rate swaps and other derivatives and securities marked-to-market in current income for GAAP purposes, but excluded from taxable income until realized or settled, (ii) timing differences, both temporary and potentially permanent, in the recognition of certain realized gains and losses, (iii) losses or undistributed income of taxable REIT subsidiaries and (iv) timing differences related to the amortization and accretion of net premiums and discounts paid on investments.
The Company's estimated taxable income for the third quarter excludes $(0.04) per common share of estimated net capital losses, which will be added to the Company's net capital loss carryforwards from prior periods.
As of September 30, 2015, the Company had approximately $2.6 million of estimated undistributed taxable income ("UTI"), or $0.05 per common share. UTI excludes the Company's remaining unutilized net capital loss carryforwards and net deferred gains from terminated or expired swaps and swaptions. As of September 30, 2015, the Company had estimated remaining unutilized net capital losses of $(2.65) per common share compared to $(2.55) per common share as of June 30, 2015, which may be carried forward and applied against future net capital gains through 2018. Additionally, as of September 30, 2015, the Company had estimated net deferred gains from terminated swaps and swaptions of $0.17 per common share compared to $0.63 per common share as of June 30, 2015, which will be amortized into future ordinary taxable income over the remaining terms of the underlying swaps.
STOCK REPURCHASE PROGRAM
During the third quarter, the Company made open market purchases of 1.2 million shares of its common stock, or 2.3% of the Company's outstanding shares as of June 30, 2015. The shares were purchased at an average net repurchase price of $15.29 per share, including expenses, totaling $18.1 million.
As of September 30, 2015, the Company had $116.9 million available under current board authorization for repurchases of its common stock. The Company also announced that its Board of Directors has extended its current share repurchase authorization through December 31, 2016.

USE OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL INFORMATION
In addition to the results presented in accordance with GAAP, our results of operations discussed herein include certain non-GAAP financial information, including “adjusted net interest income” (including the periodic interest rate costs of our interest rate swaps reported in gain (loss) on derivatives and other securities, net in our consolidated statements of operations and dividends from REIT equity securities) and “estimated taxable income” and certain financial metrics derived from non-GAAP information, such as “cost of funds” and “estimated undistributed taxable income.” By providing users of our financial information with such measures in addition to the related GAAP measures, we believe it gives users greater transparency into the information used by our management in its financial and operational decision-making and that it is meaningful information to consider related to: (i) the economic costs of financing our investment portfolio inclusive of interest rate swaps used to economically hedge against fluctuations in our borrowing costs, (ii) in the case of net spread income, our current financial performance without the effects of certain transactions that are not necessarily indicative of our current investment portfolio and operations, and (iii) in the case of estimated taxable income and estimated undistributed taxable income, information that is directly related to the amount of dividends we are required to distribute in order to maintain our REIT qualification status. However, because such measures are incomplete measures of our financial performance and involve differences from results computed in accordance with GAAP, they should be considered as supplementary to, and not as a substitute for, our results computed in accordance with GAAP. In addition, because not all companies use identical calculations, our presentation of such non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to other similarly-titled measures of other companies. Furthermore, estimated taxable income can include certain information that is subject to potential adjustments up to the time of filing our income tax returns, which occurs after the end of our fiscal year.
A reconciliation of GAAP net interest income to non-GAAP net spread and dollar roll income and a reconciliation of GAAP net income to non-GAAP estimated taxable income is included in this release.
