Key Developments:

Purchased approximately $370.7 million in residential loans and $28.8 million in non-Agency RMBS.

Funded multi-family preferred equity investments in the amount of approximately $42.6 million and multi-family joint venture investments for approximately $53.1 million.

Sold residential loans for proceeds of approximately $49.5 million, non-Agency RMBS for proceeds of approximately $43.6 million and CMBS for proceeds of approximately $89.5 million.

Issued 5,750,000 shares of 6.875% Series F Fixed-to-Floating-Rate Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock for total net proceeds to the Company of approximately $138.6 million after deduction of underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses. The Company used the net proceeds to fund the redemption of all outstanding shares of its 7.875% Series C Preferred Stock at an aggregate redemption price of approximately $104.9 million, which included accumulated and unpaid dividends up to, but not including, the redemption date of July 30, 2021.

Redeemed one of the Company's residential loan securitizations with an outstanding balance of $203.5 million at the time of redemption and completed a new securitization of certain performing, re-performing and non-performing residential loans resulting in approximately $254.9 million of net proceeds to the Company.

Management Overview

Steven Mumma, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, commented: "The Company continued to deliver solid results in the third quarter, generating GAAP earnings per share of $0.10 and comprehensive earnings per share of $0.08. The numbers for the quarter were negatively impacted by nonrecurring, one-time charges, including $3.4 million in expenses related to the early redemption of our 7.875% Series C preferred stock, which was refinanced into a 6.875% Series F preferred stock, lowering our cost of capital by 100 basis points. Additionally, in August, we called a 2020 residential securitization trust that resulted in the acceleration of $1.6 million of deferred debt issuance costs. The loan pool was refinanced into a new securitization issued in August, lowering our cost of debt by approximately 210 basis points. We expect to continue to reduce the Company's cost of funds with subsequent structured transactions. This trend will have a positive impact on earnings going forward."

Jason Serrano, President, commented: "We continue to be diligent with our portfolio growth by focusing on investments where higher asset returns are available due to operational complexities. With these competitive barriers, we can deploy the Company's substantial liquidity to build our portfolio with low utilization of leverage. In this approach, we believe this is an exceptional time for the Company to drive earnings while protecting book value."
