Company Summary
Proven Strategy of
Efficiently Managing
a Leveraged
Portfolio
of
Short-Duration
Agency-Guaranteed
ARM Securities
Experienced
Management Team
Aligned with
Stockholders
Overview of Capstead Mortgage Corporation
Founded in 1985, Capstead is the oldest publicly-traded residential mortgage REIT.
Our sole
focus is on managing a leveraged portfolio of short-duration* agency-guaranteed (i.e. Fannie Mae, Freddie
Mac and Ginnie Mae) residential ARM securities that is appropriately hedged and can earn attractive risk-adjusted
returns over the long term, with little, if any, credit risk.
At December 31, 2016, our agency-guaranteed ARM securities portfolio stood at $13.32 billion, supported by $1.35
billion in long-term investment capital levered 9.02 times.
Our short-duration strategy differentiates us from our peers because the adjustable-rate mortgages underlying our
portfolio reset to more current interest rates within a relatively short period of time:
allowing us to benefit from future recoveries in financing spreads that typically contract during periods of
rising interest rates, and
resulting in smaller fluctuations in portfolio values from changes in interest rates compared to portfolios
containing a significant amount of longer-duration ARM or fixed-rate mortgage securities.
By virtue of being internally-managed and with our sole focus on agency-guaranteed securities, we are arguably the
most efficient mortgage REIT in the industry.
Our top three executive officers have a combined 75 years of mortgage finance industry experience.
We are internally-managed with low operating costs and a strong focus on performance-based compensation. 
This structure greatly enhances the alignment of management interests with those of our stockholders.
3
This singular and straight-forward investment strategy, together with our use of cash flow hedge accounting allows
for easily understood, transparent financial reporting, with limited use of non-GAAP financial measures.
Additional
transparency
is
evident
by
virtue
of
our
internally-managed
structure
our
compensation-related
decisions
and costs are fully disclosed and subject to annual say-on-pay approvals.
We make every effort to provide additional analysis in our earnings reports, SEC filings and analyst presentations
that tells our story in a complete and straight-forward fashion.

Capstead’s Economic Returns
5
(a) CMO economic returns exclude the effect of $(0.03) per share in separation of service charges associated with the July 2016 resignation of the Company’s former chief executive officer. 
Including
this
unusual
charge,
our
economic
returns
would
have
been
lower
by
26
basis
points
in
2016,
and
by
7
and
5
basis
points
for
the
4-
and
5-year
averages,
respectively.
(b) Excludes $(0.28) per share one-time effect of preferred capital redemption and issuance transactions on book value in 2013.  Including this unusual charge, our economic returns would
have
been
lower
by
52
and
41
basis
points
for
the
4-
and
5-year
averages,
respectively.
(c) Agency Peers: AGNC, AI, ANH, ARR, CYS, EARN, HTS, NLY, ORC.
(d) All Peers: Agency peers plus AMTG, CIM, DX, IVR, JMI, MFA, MITT, MTGE, NYMT, OAKS, RWT, TWO, WMC.
Our agency-only, short-duration ARM strategy typically leads to outperformance during periods of rising
interest rates and/or worsening credit conditions relative to other mortgage REITs.


Components of our Economic Returns
Quarterly Earnings, Dividends and Changes in Book Value
6
For presentation purposes, we adjusted our Q2 2013 diluted EPS and related change in book value to exclude certain one-time effects of preferred capital redemption and issuance
transactions totaling $(0.23) and $(0.28), respectively.  These transactions replaced higher-cost preferred equity to the benefit of future earnings.  See page 19 for further information 
and a reconciliation of diluted EPS to this presentation.
*
Our quarterly earnings are affected by the impact of changes in interest rates on mortgage refinancing activity and our borrowing costs.
Quarterly earnings can also fluctuate with seasonal factors, most notably higher mortgage prepayment levels typically experienced
during the summer house-selling season.  We reassess the common dividend periodically based largely on how these factors are
impacting expected future earnings.
Our book value per common share is directly impacted by changes in interest rates and other market conditions as our portfolio and our
hedge instruments are marked-to-market  through stockholders’ equity.  Book value has also been impacted to the extent common
dividends exceeded earnings resulting in returns of capital to our stockholders.

Our
portfolio
of
agency-guaranteed
ARM

have
little,
if
any,
credit

and
are
either
currently
resetting
to
more
current

annually
or
will
begin
doing
so
in

Our

reset
in
rate
in
less

18
months
and
our
Longer-to-Reset

reset
in

With
an
asset

approximately
11½

the

is
naturally
less

than
portfolios
containing
longer

This

us
more

stress.
We
have
long-term
relationships
with
a
variety
of
domestic
and

counterparties.
At
year-end
we
had
borrowings

We
routinely
borrow

and
extend

When
available
at

levels,
we
may
also
enter
into
longer-dated
secured

Together
with
our
portfolio-related
swap
agreements,
our
secured

had
a

Capstead’s Appropriate Use of Leverage

(a)
All interest-earning assets include residential mortgage investments, overnight investments and cash collateral receivable from interest rate swap counterparties.  All interest-paying liabilities
include unsecured borrowings and cash collateral payable to interest rate swap counterparties.
(b)
Cash yields are based on the cash component of interest income.  Investment premium amortization is determined using the interest method which incorporates actual and anticipated future
mortgage prepayments.  Both are expressed as a percentage calculated on average amortized cost basis for the indicated periods.
(c)
Unhedged borrowing rates represent average rates on secured borrowings, before consideration of interest rate swap agreements held for portfolio hedging purposes.  Hedged borrowing rates
represent the average fixed-rate payments made on these swaps adjusted for differences between LIBOR-based variable-rate payments received and unhedged borrowing rates, as well as the
effects of any hedge ineffectiveness.  Average fixed-rate swap payments were 0.80%, 0.75%, 0.73% and 0.69% for the fourth, third, second and first quarters of 2016, respectively, while
average variable-rate payment adjustments were 0.15%, 0.18%, 0.23% and 0.24% for the same periods, respectively.  During 2016 and 2015, fixed-rate swap payments averaged 0.74% and
0.57% while variable-rate payment adjustments averaged 0.20% and 0.24%, respectively.
Cash yields continue to benefit from higher coupon interest rates as mortgage loans underlying our current-reset ARM securities reset to higher
rates primarily due to increases in the underlying indices (principally 12-month LIBOR, six-month LIBOR and one-year CMT).
Mortgage prepayment levels directly impact our financing spreads because purchased investment premiums are amortized to earnings as portfolio
yield adjustments.  Mortgage prepayments are influenced by housing market conditions, including prevailing mortgage interest rates, as well as
seasonal factors, in particular the summer home selling season.  We experienced refinancing waves in both 2016 and 2015. 
Unhedged borrowing have trended higher largely because of market expectations for higher short-term interest rates culminating with the Federal
Reserve’s December 2016 and 2015 quarter point increases in the Federal Funds Rate.  Hedged borrowing rates have generally trended higher
as older, lower-rate swaps were replaced at higher rates, although beginning in the third quarter of 2016, these rates benefited from higher
variable-rate receipts due to higher LIBOR rates.  
2015


Changes in Interest Rates Affecting Capstead’s Earnings
10
The ten-year Treasury rate can be viewed as a proxy for mortgage interest rates.  After declining this spring and summer, the ten-year rate has
increased significantly, particularly post-election.  One-month LIBOR also has increased due to money market reform and anticipation of Federal
Reserve actions to increase the Federal Funds Rate.  
The primary indices underlying our residential ARM securities portfolio began increasing in 2015, in large part due to market expectations for
Federal Reserve action to increase the Federal Funds Rate.  Additionally, six- and 12-month LIBOR increased considerably during the latter part of
2016 in response to money market reform.  All three indices have continued increasing post year-end (indices presented through March 6, 2017).


Agency Mortgage Prepayment Speeds versus
Capstead Prepayment Speeds
Similar to what occurred in 2015, Capstead
experienced high prepayment levels during the summer months of 2016 reflecting
declines in prevailing interest rates and seasonal factors.  While the 2016 refinancing wave peaked in September, declines in
prepayment rates on ARM securities lagged declines in prepayment rates on fixed-rate mortgage securities during the fourth quarter
and in January 2017.  However, with the sharp increase in interest rates post-election, opportunities for homeowners to refinance at
lower rates have diminished and Agency ARM prepayment rates have dropped considerably in February and March.

NOTE:  Excludes $3 million legacy portfolio of fixed-rate investments.
The 2016 year-end Net WAC* on our current-reset ARMs was 25 basis points higher than at year-end 2015.  These securities’ Fully-
Indexed WAC* was 38 basis points higher.  This is primarily the result of increases in the underlying indices. These indices have
increased further since year-end.  With these higher rates, ARM loans underlying the current-reset component of our portfolio can be
expected to continue increasing in coupon in the coming quarters.

Capstead is a leader among our mortgage REIT peers in terms of operating cost efficiency.
We are internally-managed with low operating costs compared to our mortgage REIT peers.
Our executives’ pay structure is variable through compensation elements that focus on “pay for performance” as opposed to fees
paid to an external manager that are based solely on capital under management.
Additionally, our board of directors and our senior
executives hold a significant amount of Capstead stock.
As a result, we are incented to grow the Company by raising capital only when it is accretive to book value and earnings rather than
for the purpose of increasing compensation or external management fees.  Conversely, we are also not conflicted regarding whether
or not to repurchase shares when appropriate.

Management
remarks
from
our
January
25,
2017
earnings
press
release:
“Earnings
for
the
fourth
quarter
were
hampered
by
slower
than
anticipated
declines
in
mortgage
prepayment
levels.
As
a
result,
portfolio
yields
did
not
improve
as
much
as
expected.
While
the
2016
refinancing
wave
peaked
in
September,
declines
in
prepayment
rates
on
ARM
securities
have
lagged
declines
in
prepayment
rates
on
fixed-rate
mortgage
securities
during
the
fourth
quarter
and
in
January
2017.
However,
with
the
sharp
increase
in
interest
rates
post-election,
opportunities
for
homeowners
to
refinance
at
lower
rates
have
diminished
considerably.
This
is
expected
to
lead
to
lower
mortgage
prepayment
levels
in
the
coming
months,
benefiting
portfolio
yields
and
earnings.
“Additionally,
we
expect
cash
yields
to
continue
increasing
in
2017
as
coupon
interest
rates
on
mortgage
loans
underlying
our
portfolio
reset
to
higher
rates
based
on
higher
prevailing
six-
and
12-month
interest
rate
indices.
Our
borrowing
costs
are
also
currently
benefiting
from
higher
variable
rate
swap
receipts
due
to
higher
short-term
LIBOR
rates
relative
to
our
unhedged
borrowing
rates.
However,
future
actions
by
the
Federal
Reserve
to
increase
the
level
of
short-term
interest
rates
will
put
upward
pressure
on
unhedged
borrowing
rates
and
fixed-rate
swap
payment
requirements
on
new
swap
agreements.
Provided
the
Federal
Reserve
does
not
move
to
increase
short-term
interest
rates
at
a
considerably
faster
pace
than
the
financial
markets
currently
anticipate,
and
longer
term
interest
rates
remain
benign,
we
anticipate
reporting
improved
earnings
in
the
coming
quarters.
“During
the
fourth
quarter
of
2016,
longer-term
interest
rates
moved
significantly
higher,
as
illustrated
by
the
ten-year
Treasury
rate
increasing
85
basis
points
to
end
the
year
at
2.45%.
As
a
consequence,
longer
duration
mortgage-backed
securities
lost
considerable
value.
For
instance,
Fannie
Mae
30-year
fixed
3.0%
mortgage
securities
declined
in
price
by
approximately
4.75%
during
this
period.
In
contrast,
Capstead’s
ARM
securities
portfolio
performed
relatively
well,
experiencing
a
decline
in
overall
portfolio
pricing
of
just
0.49%.
“This
translated
into
a
fourth
quarter
book
value
decline
of
only
1.4%
due
to
changes
in
unrealized
gains
and
losses
on
the
portfolio
and
interest
rate
swaps
held
for
hedging
purposes.
As
a
result,
our
fourth
quarter
economic
return
(change
in
book
value
plus
dividends)
is
expected
to
significantly
outpace
the
performance
of
our
mortgage
REIT
peers
holding
longer
duration
portfolios
that
will
be
reporting
in
the
coming
weeks.
“We
remain
confident
in
our
strategy
of
cost-effectively
managing
a
leveraged
portfolio
of
agency-guaranteed
residential
ARM
securities
that
can
produce
attractive
risk-adjusted
returns
over
the
long
term
while
reducing,
but
not
eliminating,
sensitivity
to
changes
in
interest
rates.”

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
As of December 31, 2016 (unaudited)
19
Financing spreads on residential mortgage investments, a non-GAAP financial measure, differs from total financing spreads, an all-inclusive GAAP
measure, that is based on all interest-earning assets and all interest-paying liabilities.  We believe presenting financing spreads on residential mortgage
investments provides useful information for evaluating the performance of the Company’s portfolio.
Core earnings per diluted common share is a non-GAAP financial measure that differs from the related GAAP measure of net income per diluted
common share by excluding certain one-time effects of second quarter 2013 transactions to redeem then-outstanding high-cost convertible preferred
capital and issue our 7.50% Series E preferred shares.  We believe presenting this metric on a core earnings basis provides useful, comparative
information for evaluating the Company’s performance.
