MANAGEMENT REMARKS
"The unanticipated outcome of the U.S. Presidential election triggered a major repricing in nearly every financial market," said Gary Kain, the Company's Chief Executive Officer, President and Chief Investment Officer. "U.S. equity prices increased to new highs as investors sought higher risk assets. Correspondingly, Treasury prices declined significantly, with the yield on the 10 year U.S. Treasury increasing by over 100 basis points at one point during the quarter."
"The dramatic increase in rates and volatility led to a meaningful widening in agency MBS spreads relative to swap and treasury rates. At the same time, favorable investor sentiment toward higher risk assets drove solid returns from our non-agency MBS and GSE credit risk transfer securities. Despite the strong performance of our non-agency portfolio, the combination of the rapid spike in interest rates and wider agency MBS spreads contributed to MTGE's economic loss of (4.8)% for the fourth quarter."
"Looking ahead, we believe our portfolio is well positioned to generate attractive risk-adjusted returns for our shareholders, as wider agency MBS spreads and favorable housing fundamentals will continue to benefit both our agency and non-agency investment portfolios. The healthcare and senior living sectors also continue to provide very attractive investment opportunities and, as such, will represent a greater share of our capital over time. We expect that our growth in this area, however, will be gradual as we maintain our disciplined approach with respect to these assets, which require significant pre-acquisition diligence."
"For the year, MTGE generated an economic return of 5.6% and a total stock return of 24.4% despite significant interest rate and spread volatility." said Peter Federico, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. "Moreover, we believe that MTGE's current price-to-book discount is inconsistent with the favorable earnings and investment outlook that we see for our portfolio. As such, we believe that MTGE provides a compelling return opportunity for investors."
NET BOOK VALUE
As of December 31, 2016, the Company's net book value per common share was $19.17, a decrease of $(1.38) per common share, or (6.8)% from its September 30, 2016 net book value per common share of $20.55. The decrease in the Company's net book value per common share was primarily due to unrealized losses on agency securities during the quarter.
INVESTMENT PORTFOLIO
As of December 31, 2016, the Company's investment portfolio included $2.8 billion of agency MBS, $0.9 billion of net long TBA positions, $1.1 billion of non-agency securities, $94 million of healthcare real estate investments and $50 million of MSR.
As of December 31, 2016, the Company's fixed rate agency investments were comprised of $0.5 billion 15 year MBS, $0.1 billion 20 year MBS, $2.1 billion 30 year MBS, $0.3 billion 15 year net long TBA securities and $0.6 billion 30 year net long TBA securities. As of December 31, 2016, 15 year fixed rate investments represented 21% of the Company's agency investment portfolio, an increase from 19% as of September 30, 2016, and 30 year fixed rate investments represented 72% of the Company's agency portfolio, a decrease from 74% as of September 30, 2016.
As of December 31, 2016, the Company's net long TBA mortgage portfolio had a fair value and cost basis of approximately $0.9 billion, with a net carrying value of $(18.5) million reported in derivative assets/(liabilities) on the Company's consolidated balance sheet. 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 December 31, 2016, the Company's agency fixed rate assets, inclusive of the net long TBA position, had a weighted average coupon of 3.47%, up from 3.41% at September 30, 2016, comprised of the following weighted average coupons:
- 3.07% for 15 year securities;
- 3.30% for 20 year securities; and
- 3.59% for 30 year securities.
As of December 31, 2016, the Company's $1.1 billion non-agency portfolio was comprised of approximately 30% Alt-A, 28% credit risk transfer, 16% prime, 16% option ARM, 8% subprime and 2% commercial mortgage backed securities ("CMBS").
CONSTANT PREPAYMENT RATES
The CPR for the Company's agency portfolio during the fourth quarter of 2016 was 12.8%, down from 13.0% during the third quarter. The weighted average projected CPR for the remaining life of the Company's agency securities held as of December 31, 2016 was 8.1%, compared to 10.1% as of September 30, 2016.
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 weighted average cost basis of the Company's agency securities was 104.9% of par and the unamortized agency net premium was $132.7 million as of December 31, 2016. The amortization of premiums (net of any accretion of discounts) on the agency portfolio for the quarter was $(1.1) million, which includes "catch-up" premium amortization benefit of $4.3 million due to changes in the Company's projected CPR estimates for securities acquired prior to the fourth quarter. This compares to net premium amortization cost for the prior quarter of $(6.9) million including a "catch-up" premium amortization expense of $(0.7) million.
NON-AGENCY ACCRETION INCOME
The weighted average cost basis of the Company's non-agency portfolio was 85.3% of par as of December 31, 2016. Accretion income on the non-agency portfolio for the quarter was $6.3 million. The total net discount remaining was $185.7 million as of December 31, 2016, with $97.3 million designated as credit reserves.
ASSET YIELDS, COST OF FUNDS AND NET INTEREST RATE SPREAD
The Company's average annualized net interest rate spread on its balance sheet and dollar roll funded securities for the fourth quarter was 2.47% compared to 2.06% in the third quarter. Excluding estimated "catch-up" premium amortization due to changes in projected CPR, the Company's average annualized net interest rate spread was 2.13% for the fourth quarter, compared to 2.12% in the third quarter.
The Company's average agency and non-agency securities asset yield excluding TBAs was 3.90% for the fourth quarter, compared to 3.30% for the third quarter. The Company's agency and non-agency securities asset yield excluding TBAs as of December 31, 2016 was 3.70%, up 23 bps from 3.47% as of September 30, 2016.
The Company's average cost of funds was 1.41% for the fourth quarter, compared to 1.30% for the third quarter. The Company's average cost of funds includes the cost of repurchase agreements, Federal Home Loan Bank ("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 FHLB advance balances outstanding. The Company's average cost of funds as of December 31, 2016 was 1.62%, compared to 1.30% as of September 30, 2016.
The Company recognized $0.50 per common share of net spread and dollar roll income excluding "catch-up" premium amortization (a non-GAAP financial measure) for the fourth quarter, compared to $0.48 for the prior quarter. Net spread and dollar roll income for the fourth quarter included $0.14 per common share of dollar roll income, compared to $0.09 for the prior quarter. A reconciliation of the Company's net interest income to net spread and dollar roll income and additional information regarding the Company's use of non-GAAP measures are included later in this release.
LEVERAGE
The Company uses repurchase agreements and FHLB advances to fund purchases of agency and non-agency securities. Including TBA securities, the Company's "at risk" leverage ratio for agency and non-agency securities was 4.8x as of December 31, 2016 and averaged 5.0x during the fourth quarter.
The $3.0 billion borrowed under repurchase agreements as of December 31, 2016 had remaining maturities consisting of:
- $1.3 billion of one month or less;
- $0.8 billion between one and two months;
- $0.5 billion between two and three months;
- $0.1 billion between three and twelve months; and
- $0.3 billion greater than twelve months.
As of December 31, 2016, the Company's agency and non-agency repurchase agreements had an average of 125 days remaining to maturity, down from 142 days as of September 30, 2016.
The Company's FHLB advances mature in February 2017, coinciding with the termination of the Company's captive insurance subsidiary's FHLB membership. As of December 31, 2016, the Company had $0.3 billion of FHLB advances with a weighted average interest rate of 0.67%.
HEDGING ACTIVITIES
As of December 31, 2016, 86% of the Company's combined funding and net TBA balance was hedged through a combination of interest rate swaps, interest rate swaptions and U.S. Treasury securities, up 28% from September 30, 2016.
The Company's interest rate swap positions as of December 31, 2016 totaled $3.0 billion in notional amount, with a weighted average fixed pay rate of 1.39%, a weighted average receive rate of 0.92% and a weighted average maturity of 3.3 years. Excluding forward starting swaps, the Company's interest rate swap portfolio had a notional balance of $2.8 billion, an average fixed pay rate of 1.35% and a weighted average receive rate of 0.92% as of December 31, 2016, compared to a notional balance of $2.0 billion, an average fixed pay rate of 1.15% and a weighted average receive rate of 0.79% as of September 30, 2016. 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 December 31, 2016, the Company held payer swaption contracts with a total notional amount of $150.0 million and a weighted average expiration of 0.7 years. These swaptions have an underlying weighted average interest rate swap term of 5.7 years and a weighted average pay rate of 3.14% as of December 31, 2016.
The Company held a $(0.5)billion net short position in U.S. Treasury securities as of both December 31, 2016 and September 30, 2016.
SERVICING
As of December 31, 2016, our servicing subsidiary Residential Credit Solutions ("RCS") owned a portfolio of MSR with a fair market value of $49.8 million, representing approximately 27 thousand residential mortgage loans and $5.3 billion in unpaid principal balances. During the fourth quarter, the Company recorded $3.6 million in servicing revenues and $(4.8) million in servicing expense, which included $(2.8) million in realization of cash flows on MSR.
During the fourth quarter, the Company recorded a $5.0 million 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 as a result of certain financial and economic factors, including anticipated MSR investment balances.
HEALTHCARE REAL ESTATE INVESTMENTS
The Company's wholly owned subsidiary, Capital Healthcare Investments, LLC ("CHI"), held real estate assets of $94 million, financed with $67 million of secured notes payable with a weighted average interest rate of 4.70% as of December 31, 2016. During the fourth quarter, CHI acquired $24 million in additional real estate assets and recorded revenues of $2.7 million and expenses of $(2.2) million.
The Company's real estate assets are accounted for at historical cost, net of accumulated depreciation, as applicable.
OTHER GAINS (LOSSES), NET
The Company has elected to record all agency and non-agency securities 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 fourth quarter, the Company recorded $(68.4) million in other gains (losses), net, or $(1.49) per common share. Other gains (losses), net, for the quarter are comprised of:
- $(2.0) million of net realized loss on agency and non-agency securities;
- $(84.5) million of net unrealized loss on agency securities;
- $2.6 million of net unrealized gain on non-agency securities;
- $(1.9) million of net realized loss on periodic settlements of interest rate swaps;
- $(9.9) million of net realized loss on other derivatives and securities;
- $30.4 million of net unrealized gain on other derivatives and securities;

- $(5.0) million impairment charge of RCS-related intangible assets.

FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
This press release contains forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are based on estimates, projections, beliefs and assumptions of management of the Company at the time of such statements and are not guarantees of future performance or results. Forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties in predicting future results and conditions. Actual results could differ materially from those projected in these forward-looking statements due to a variety of important factors, including, without limitation, changes in interest rates, changes in the yield curve, changes in prepayment rates, the availability and terms of financing, changes in the market value of the Company's assets, the receipt of regulatory approval or other closing conditions for a transaction, general economic conditions, market conditions, conditions in the market for agency and non-agency securities and mortgage related investments, and legislative and regulatory changes that could adversely affect the business of the Company. Certain important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements, are included in the Company's periodic reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). Copies are available on the SEC's website, www.sec.gov. The Company disclaims any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements based on the occurrence of future events, the receipt or new information, or otherwise.
USE OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL INFORMATION
In addition to the results presented in accordance with GAAP, the Company's results of operations discussed in this release include certain non-GAAP financial information, including "net spread and dollar roll income," "net spread and dollar roll income, excluding 'catch-up' premium amortization," "estimated taxable income" and the related per common share measures and certain financial metrics derived from such non-GAAP information, such as "cost of funds" and "net interest rate spread."
"Net spread and dollar roll income" is measured as (i) net interest income (GAAP measure) adjusted to include other interest rate swap periodic costs, TBA dollar roll income and dividends on REIT equity securities (referred to as "adjusted net interest and dollar roll income") less (ii) total operating expenses (GAAP measure) adjusted to exclude non-recurring transaction costs. "Net spread and dollar roll income, excluding "catch-up" premium amortization," further excludes retrospective "catch-up" adjustments to premium amortization cost or benefit due to changes in projected CPR estimates.
By providing users of the Company's financial information with such measures in addition to the related GAAP measures, the Company believes users will have greater transparency into the information used by the Company's management in its financial and operational decision-making. The Company also believes it is important for users to consider information related to its current financial performance without the effects of certain measures that are not necessarily indicative of its current or expected investment portfolio performance and operations.
Specifically, in the case of "adjusted net interest and dollar roll income," the Company believes the inclusion of TBA dollar roll income is meaningful as TBAs, which are accounted for under GAAP as derivative instruments with gains and losses recognized in other gain (loss) in the Company's statement of operations, are economically equivalent to holding and financing generic agency MBS using short-term repurchase agreements. Similarly, the Company believes that the inclusion of periodic interest rate swap settlements, which are recognized under GAAP in other gain (loss), is meaningful as interest rate swaps are the primary instrument used to economically hedge against fluctuations in the Company's borrowing costs and the inclusion of all periodic interest rate swap settlement costs is more indicative of the Company's total cost of funds than interest expense alone. In the case of "net spread and dollar roll income, excluding 'catch-up' premium amortization," the Company believes the exclusion of "catch-up" adjustments to premium amortization cost or benefit is meaningful as it excludes the cumulative effect from prior reporting periods due to current changes in future prepayment expectations and, therefore, exclusion of such cost or benefit is more indicative of the current and expected earnings potential of the Company's investment portfolio. The Company also believes the exclusion of non-recurring costs associated with the American Capital, Ltd. strategic review process and subsequent acquisition of the Company's external manager by AGNC Investment Corp. reported in general and administrative expense under GAAP is meaningful as they are not representative of ongoing operating costs. In the case of estimated taxable income, the Company believes it is meaningful information as it is directly related to the amount of dividends the Company is required to distribute in order to maintain its REIT qualification status.
However, because such measures are incomplete measures of the Company's 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, results computed in accordance with GAAP. In addition, because not all companies use identical calculations, the Company's 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 the Company's income tax returns, which occurs after the end of its fiscal year.
A reconciliation of GAAP net interest income to non-GAAP net spread and dollar roll income, excluding "catch-up" premium amortization and a reconciliation of GAAP net income to non-GAAP estimated taxable income is included in this release.
