Economic return is calculated by taking the sum of: (i) the total dividends declared; and (ii) the change in book value during the period and dividing by the beginning book value. |

MANAGEMENT COMMENTARY
"I am very pleased to report that we delivered another quarter of strong economic return on book value of 4.8% for the second quarter, bringing our economic return for the first half of 2017 to 9.6%," said Jennifer Murphy, Chief Executive Officer of the Company. "In addition, core earnings plus drop income increased 28.0% from the first quarter, to $0.32 per share as the combination of our repositioned portfolio and our simplified hedge book enabled us to increase our net interest margin and lower our operating expenses. Our second quarter dividend remained stable at $0.31 per share for the fifth quarter in a row, which reflects our commitment to our long-term goal of generating a strong total return for our shareholders through attractive dividends derived from sustainable core earnings and potential appreciation in the value of our portfolio."
Anup Agarwal, Chief Investment Officer of the Company, commented, "Our solid performance for both the first and second quarters is a result of a shift in our asset composition and our ongoing focus on achieving operating efficiencies. Our second quarter performance was driven by contributions across our holdings and reflects the benefit of our strategy of investing in a diversified portfolio in a number of sub-sectors of the mortgage market. During the quarter, we continued to benefit from spread tightening on the credit portion of our portfolio, which helped support an increase in our book value to $10.64, or 1.8%, at June 30, 2017. Also, despite the expected fed funds rate increase, our effective borrowing costs declined, primarily due to lower hedging costs resulting from our reconfigured hedge book."
"Our current expectations are for a continuing moderate pace of economic growth and an improving global backdrop combined with a low inflation environment, both in the U.S. and abroad. We believe that a balanced portfolio consisting of Agency CMBS, Agency RMBS and credit-sensitive investments continues to be appropriate and in our opinion, positions us well to continue to generate attractive risk-adjusted total economic returns for our shareholders," Mr. Agarwal concluded.
