    Ellington Credit Company (NYSE:EARN) ("we") today reported financial results for the quarter ended December 31, 2024.

    Fourth Quarter Highlights

    • Net income (loss) of $(2.0) million, or $(0.07) per share.
    • Adjusted Distributable Earnings1 of $7.8 million, or $0.27 per share.
    • Book value of $6.53 per share as of December 31, 2024, which includes the effects of dividends of $0.24 per share for the quarter.
    • Net interest margin2 of 8.54% on credit, 3.24% on Agency, and 5.07% overall.
    • CLO portfolio increased to $171.1 million at year end, compared to $144.5 million as of September 30, 2024.
    • Capital allocation3 to CLOs increased to 72% at year end, compared to 58% as of September 30, 2024.
    • Debt-to-equity ratio of 2.9:1 and net mortgage assets-to-equity ratio of 2.6:14 as of December 31, 2024.
    • Weighted average constant prepayment rate ("CPR") for the fixed-rate Agency specified pool portfolio of 9.55.
    • Cash and cash equivalents of $31.8 million at year end, in addition to other unencumbered assets of $79.2 million.
    • Dividend yield of 15.7% based on the March 11, 2025 closing stock price of $6.12, and monthly dividend of $0.08 per common share declared on March 7, 2025.
    • Subsequent to year end, shareholders approved conversion to a Delaware registered closed-end fund to be treated as a regulated investment company ("RIC") under the Internal Revenue Code, focused on corporate CLO investments (the "Conversion").
    • Expect to complete the Conversion on April 1, 2025.

    Fourth Quarter 2024 Results

    "We continue to expand our CLO portfolio in preparation for the upcoming Conversion, and in the fourth quarter, we grew that portfolio by another 18% sequentially to $171.1 million. Most of this growth came in CLO equity, where we currently see the most attractive opportunities. With CLO debt spreads tightening, the economics of both new and existing CLO equity investments are improving. Meanwhile, persistent pricing inefficiencies continue to create compelling relative value opportunities across the CLO market," said Laurence Penn, Chief Executive Officer and President.

    "Our results for the quarter reflect positive performance in our CLO portfolio, particularly CLO mezzanine debt. Net interest income in that portfolio rose, and we also generated net gains resulting from several opportunistic sales, tighter credit spreads, and redemptions of several of our discount seasoned CLO mezzanine tranches. However, intra-quarter interest rate and yield spread volatility drove underperformance in Agency MBS, which led to a small overall net loss for EARN for the quarter. The combination of portfolio growth and wide net interest margins on our CLOs continued to support our adjusted distributable earnings, which again covered our dividends for the quarter.

    "With shareholder approval now secured, we are working to finalize the Conversion and expect to operate as a RIC beginning April 1. This conversion marks a pivotal milestone for Ellington Credit, positioning us to drive strong earnings and unlock greater value for shareholders over the long term. We remain committed to executing our strategies with discipline and appreciate our shareholders' steadfast support throughout this process."

    Strategic Transformation Update

    On March 29, 2024, our Board of Trustees approved a strategic transformation of our investment strategy to focus on corporate CLOs, with an emphasis on mezzanine debt and equity tranches. As part of this transformation, we revoked our REIT tax election effective January 1, 2024 and rebranded as Ellington Credit Company. We remain listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol EARN.

    At a special meeting of shareholders on January 17, 2025, we received approval to complete the Conversion. Over 93% of shareholder votes cast supported the proposals related to the Conversion, and excluding abstentions, the approval rate exceeded 95%.

    We expect the Conversion to take effect on April 1, 2025, marking our full transition from an MBS-focused REIT to a CLO-focused closed-end fund. As part of this shift, we intend to sell our remaining liquid Agency MBS pools and, following the effectiveness of the RIC Conversion, operate in compliance with 1940 Act requirements.

    CLO Holdings

    Our CLO holdings grew by 18% to $171.1 million as of December 31, 2024, compared to $144.5 million as of September 30, 2024, while our capital allocation3 to CLOs increased to 72% from 58%. At year end, our CLO portfolio consisted of $99.1 million of equity tranches ($91.8 million dollar-denominated, $7.3 million non-dollar denominated) and $72.0 million of mezzanine debt tranches ($55.2 million dollar-denominated, $16.8 million non-dollar denominated). We aim to maintain a diversified portfolio of CLO equity and debt investments, with allocations between equity and debt adjusted based on market opportunities. While we plan to invest in both dollar- and non-dollar-denominated CLOs based on relative value, we expect that the majority of our CLO holdings will remain dollar-denominated.

    Agency RMBS and Non-Agency Holdings

    Our Agency RMBS holdings increased by 11% to $512.3 million as of December 31, 2024, from $462.1 million as of September 30, 2024. We added Agency RMBS to the portfolio to accommodate the larger CLO portfolio, in order to maintain our exclusion from registration as an investment company under the 1940 Act prior to completing our Conversion. Meanwhile, we sold effectively all of our remaining non-Agency RMBS and interest-only securities during the fourth quarter.

    Leverage and Hedging

    Our debt-to-equity ratio (adjusted for unsettled trades) increased to 2.9:1 as of December 31, 2024, compared to 2.5:1 at the end of the third quarter, driven by an increase in borrowings on our larger CLO and Agency RMBS portfolios, partially offset by higher shareholders' equity. Meanwhile, our net mortgage assets-to-equity ratio declined to 2.6:1 from 3.0:1, driven by the increase in shareholders' equity and a net short TBA position at the end of the fourth quarter in contrast to a net long TBA position at the end of the third quarter.

    We hedged our interest rate risk using interest rate swaps and short positions in TBAs, U.S. Treasury securities, and futures. We also maintained modest credit hedge and foreign currency hedge portfolios at quarter end.

    Net Interest Margin and Adjusted Distributable Earnings

    In the fourth quarter, the net interest margins on our credit and Agency portfolios decreased to 8.54% and 3.24%, respectively, as compared to 9.65% and 3.52% in the prior quarter. In our credit portfolio, average asset yields and cost of funds both declined, with asset yields declining by a greater amount; whereas in our Agency portfolio, average asset yields and cost of funds both increased, with cost of funds increasing by a greater amount. Our average cost of funds and net interest margin continued to benefit from positive carry on our interest rate swaps, where we receive a higher floating rate and pay a lower fixed rate. However, the extent of this benefit declined in the fourth quarter, and the benefit will continue to decline as we sell our remaining Agency pools and terminate the associated interest rate swap hedges.

    The decline in net interest margin also led to a small decrease in our adjusted distributable earnings per share to $0.27 from $0.28 in the prior quarter. Our adjusted distributable earnings again exceeded our dividends paid in the quarter.

    CLO Performance

    In the fourth quarter, the U.S. CLO market continued to benefit from robust demand for leveraged loans, improvements in fundamentals for corporate borrowers, and strong capital inflows, particularly into floating-rate leveraged loan funds in response to higher interest rates. Tightening credit spreads drove strong corporate loan issuance volumes in the fourth quarter, with gross issuance for 2024 reaching its highest annual level on record per PitchBook | LCD. However, as with the prior quarter, net CLO issuance remained low in the fourth quarter, due to elevated CLO refinancing volumes and seasoned CLO deals being called.

    In the U.S., benign default rates, combined with elevated interest rate volatility and demand for floating-rate assets, led to continued strong demand for CLO debt and equity tranches. Higher loan prepayment rates continued to drive deleveraging in seasoned CLOs, while increasing leveraged loan prices improved deal-level asset coverage tests for many CLOs, driving credit spreads tighter. However, investors remained cautious of lower-quality loans, leading to continued weakness in mezzanine tranches of CLOs with elevated exposures to these assets.

    In Europe, default rates and prepayment rates declined, which benefited European CLO equity relative to U.S. equity tranches. On the other hand, the slower prepayment rates led to less deal deleveraging relative to U.S. CLOs, limiting spread tightening for CLO debt.

    As with the prior two quarters, U.S. CLO equity performance was mixed during the fourth quarter. Tightening debt spreads allowed for some deals to continue to refinance or reset their liabilities, enhancing CLO equity returns for deals out of their non-call periods with stronger-performing portfolios and higher debt costs. However, the prevalence of fast prepayment speeds in the leveraged loan market led to both price declines for loans trading above par and compression in loan floating rate spreads, as large volumes of loans trading at premiums to par were refinanced at par and replaced with lower-spread loans. European CLO equity tranches were negatively affected by similar phenomena, though to a lesser degree.

    Our CLO strategy delivered positive results in the fourth quarter, driven by higher net interest income and net gains in U.S. and European debt portfolios, supported by several opportunistic sales, tighter credit spreads, and redemptions of several of our discount seasoned CLO mezzanine tranches. Performance from our CLO equity investments was positive overall, with net interest income slightly exceeding net unrealized losses.

    Agency and Non-Agency Performance

    In the fourth quarter, rising interest rates and intra-quarter volatility contributed to the underperformance of Agency RMBS relative to hedging instruments. Overall for the fourth quarter, the U.S. Agency MBS Index generated a negative excess return of (0.15)%. Against this backdrop, EARN's remaining Agency portfolio generated negative results for the quarter, with net losses on Agency MBS exceeding net gains on interest rate hedges.

    Average pay-ups on our specified pool portfolio decreased to 0.20% as of December 31, 2024, as compared to 0.25% as of September 30, 2024.

    Meanwhile, our non-Agency RMBS portfolio generated positive results for the fourth quarter, driven by net interest income and profitable sales. We sold effectively all of our remaining non-Agency RMBS and interest-only securities during the quarter.

    General and Administrative Expenses

    Quarterly expenses declined quarter over quarter due to lower professional fees, compensation expense, and other operating expenses.

    About Ellington Credit Company

    Ellington Credit Company (the "Company"), formerly known as Ellington Residential Mortgage REIT, was initially formed as a real estate investment trust ("REIT") that invested primarily in residential mortgage-backed securities ("MBS"). On March 29, 2024, the Company's Board of Trustees approved a strategic transformation of the Company's investment strategy to focus on corporate CLOs, with an emphasis on mezzanine debt and equity tranches. In connection with this transformation, the Company revoked its election to be taxed as a REIT effective January 1, 2024, and rebranded as Ellington Credit Company. At a special meeting on January 17, 2025, the Company's shareholders approved proposals related to the RIC Conversion. The Company expects the conversion to take effect on April 1, 2025.

    Derived from audited financial statements as of December 31, 2023.

    Following the special meeting of shareholders held on January 17, 2025, we fully redeemed the 1,000 Series A Preferred Shares in accordance with the terms of the previously announced Subscription and Investment Representation Agreement entered into on December 9, 2024.

    (3)

    Common shares issued and outstanding at December 31, 2024, includes 1,655,230 common shares issued under our at-the market common share offering program and 32,341 of restricted common shares issued under our 2023 Equity Incentive Plan during the fourth quarter.

    Reconciliation of Adjusted Distributable Earnings to Net Income (Loss)

    We calculate Adjusted Distributable Earnings as net income (loss) adjusted for: (i) net realized and change in net unrealized gains and (losses) on securities, financial derivatives, and foreign currency transactions; (ii) net realized and change in net unrealized gains (losses) associated with periodic settlements on interest rate swaps; (iii) other income or loss items that are of a non-recurring nature, if any (iv) Catch-up Amortization Adjustment (as defined below); and (v) provision for income taxes. The Catch-up Amortization Adjustment is a quarterly adjustment to premium amortization or discount accretion triggered by changes in actual and projected prepayments on our Agency RMBS (accompanied by a corresponding offsetting adjustment to realized and unrealized gains and losses). The adjustment is calculated as of the beginning of each quarter based on our then-current assumptions about cashflows and prepayments, and can vary significantly from quarter to quarter.

    Adjusted Distributable Earnings is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure. We believe that the presentation of Adjusted Distributable Earnings provides information useful to investors, because: (i) we believe that it is a useful indicator of both current and projected long-term financial performance, in that it excludes the impact of certain current-period earnings components that we believe are less useful in forecasting long-term performance and dividend-paying ability; (ii) we use it to evaluate the effective net yield provided by our portfolio, after the effects of financial leverage; and (iii), we believe that presenting Adjusted Distributable Earnings assists investors in measuring and evaluating our operating performance, and comparing our operating performance to that of our peers. Our calculation of Adjusted Distributable Earnings may differ from the calculation of similarly titled non-GAAP financial measures by our peers, with the result that these non-GAAP financial measures might not be directly comparable; adjusted Distributable Earnings excludes certain items, such as most realized and unrealized gains and losses, that may impact the amount of cash that is actually available for distribution.

    In addition, because Adjusted Distributable Earnings is an incomplete measure of our financial results and differs from net income (loss) computed in accordance with U.S. GAAP, it should be considered supplementary to, and not as a substitute for, net income (loss) computed in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

    In setting our dividends, our Board of Trustees considers our earnings, liquidity, financial condition, distribution requirements, and financial covenants, along with other factors that the Board of Trustees may deem relevant from time to time.

    The following table reconciles, for the three-month periods ended December 31, 2024 and September 30, 2024, our Adjusted Distributable Earnings to the line on our Consolidated Statement of Operations entitled Net Income (Loss), which we believe is the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure:

    Net interest margin of a group of assets represents the weighted average asset yield less the weighted average cost of borrowings secured by those assets (including the effect of net interest income (expense) related to U.S. Treasury securities and actual and accrued payments on interest rate swaps used to hedge such borrowings); net interest margin excludes the effect of the Catch-up Amortization Adjustment.

    We define our net mortgage assets-to-equity ratio as the net aggregate market value of our mortgage-backed securities (including the underlying market values of our long and short TBA positions) divided by total shareholder's equity. As of December 31, 2024 the market value of our mortgage-backed securities and our net short TBA position was $512.3 million and $(15.2) million, respectively, and total shareholders' equity was $193.7 million.
