COMMENTARY ON QUARTER
"During the second quarter, the fixed income market had its largest quarterly selloff since 2013, driven by improving U.S. economic data, a rebound in German government bond yields from near zero levels and concern that the Federal Reserve would begin to increase interest rates earlier than expected," said Gavin James, Chief Executive Officer of Western Asset Mortgage Capital Corporation. "While our portfolio wasn't immune to the overall volatility in the fixed income and, in particular, the mortgage markets, our diversification and proactive approach to portfolio management enabled us to deliver a break-even economic return for the quarter."
Anup Agarwal, Chief Investment Officer of Western Asset Mortgage Capital Corporation, commented, "For the quarter, we continued to shift our portfolio to include a higher proportion of credit sensitive investments, increasing our credit exposure from approximately 28% of the portfolio at the beginning of the year to just over 32% of the portfolio at June 30, 2015. We believe that these securities offer attractive relative value and are a good complement to our Agency MBS holdings. Specifically, we increased our holdings in CMBS, GSE credit risk sharing securities and Residential Whole-Loans. We believe that our disciplined approach to security selection combined with our hedging strategies have and will continue to position us to manage through the current highly volatile interest rate environment. While of course there can never be any guarantees we expect that our active management style will continue to serve us well in 2015."
SECOND QUARTER 2015 RESULTS
For the second quarter ended June 30, 2015, the Company recorded a GAAP net loss of $1.7 million, or $0.05 per basic and diluted share. This compares to net income of $14.1 million, or $0.34 per basic and diluted share for the first quarter ended March 31, 2015. During the second quarter of 2015, the Company generated core earnings plus drop income of $31.7 million, or $0.76 per basic and diluted share. This compares to core earnings plus drop income of $34.4 million, or $0.82 per basic and diluted share for the first quarter ended March 31, 2015. Core earnings represents a non-GAAP financial measure and is defined as net income (loss) excluding: (i) net realized gain (loss) on investments and derivative contracts; (ii) net unrealized gain (loss) on investments; (iii) gain (loss) resulting from mark-to-market adjustments on derivative contracts; (iv) other loss on MBS and other securities; (v) non-cash stock-based compensation expense; and (vi) certain other non-cash charges. Drop income represents a non-GAAP financial measure and is derived from the use of "to-be-announced" forward contract ("TBA") dollar roll transactions and is defined as the difference between the spot price and the forward settlement price for a comparable security on the trade date.
For the quarter ended June 30, 2015, average amortized cost of MBS, other securities and Whole-Loans held, including Agency and Non-Agency IO Strips accounted for as derivatives, was $4.31 billion, as compared to $4.32 billion for the quarter ended March 31, 2015.
For the quarter ended June 30, 2015, the Company's weighted average yield on its portfolio was 3.98%, including Agency and Non-Agency MBS, other securities and Whole-Loans, and interest from Interest-Only securities accounted for as derivatives. The Company's effective cost of funds on its financing of its Agency and Non-Agency MBS, other securities and Whole-Loans, and from its Interest-Only securities accounted for as derivatives (including the cost of interest rate swaps) was 1.19%. The annualized net interest spread on its portfolio was 2.79%, including Agency and Non-Agency MBS, other securities and Whole-Loans, interest from Interest-Only securities accounted for as derivatives, and taking into account the cost of the interest rate swaps. This compares with a weighted average yield of 3.97%, an effective cost of funds of 0.81%, and an annualized net interest spread of 3.16% for the quarter ended March 31, 2015.
The actual constant prepayment rate ("CPR") for the Company's Agency RMBS portfolio during the second quarter was 9.8% on an annualized basis, as compared to 7.6% for the first quarter of 2015.
