NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

Note 1 – Organization and Business Operations

Invesco Mortgage Capital Inc. (the “Company” or “we”) is a Maryland corporation primarily focused on investing in, financing and managing mortgage-backed securities (“MBS”) and other mortgage-related assets.

As of March 31, 2025, we were invested in:

•residential mortgage-backed securities (“RMBS”) that are guaranteed by a U.S. government agency such as the Government National Mortgage Association (“Ginnie Mae”), or a federally chartered corporation such as the Federal National Mortgage Association (“Fannie Mae”) or the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“Freddie Mac”) (collectively “Agency RMBS”);

•commercial mortgage-backed securities (“CMBS”) that are guaranteed by a U.S. government agency such as Ginnie Mae or a federally chartered corporation such as Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac (collectively “Agency CMBS”); and

•RMBS that are not guaranteed by a U.S. government agency or a federally chartered corporation (“non-Agency RMBS”).

During the periods presented in these condensed consolidated financial statements, we also invested in CMBS that are not guaranteed by a U.S. government agency or a federally chartered corporation (“non-Agency CMBS”), U.S. Treasury securities and a real estate-related financing arrangement in the form of an unconsolidated venture.

We conduct our business through IAS Operating Partnership L.P. (the “Operating Partnership”) and have one operating segment. Refer to Note 13 - “Segment Information” of our consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 for additional information on our operating segment.

We are externally managed and advised by Invesco Advisers, Inc. (our “Manager”), a registered investment adviser and an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of Invesco Ltd. (“Invesco”), a leading independent global investment management firm.

We elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) for U.S. federal income tax purposes under the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986. To maintain our REIT qualification, we are generally required to distribute at least 90% of our REIT taxable income to our stockholders annually. We operate our business in a manner that permits our exclusion from the “Investment Company” definition under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”).

Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation and Consolidation

Certain disclosures included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K are not required to be included on an interim basis in our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q. We have condensed or omitted these disclosures. Therefore, this Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.

Our condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and consolidate the financial statements of the Company and its controlled subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions, balances, revenues and expenses are eliminated upon consolidation. Certain reclassifications have been made to prior period amounts to conform to the current period presentation.

In the opinion of management, the condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, which are necessary for a fair statement of our financial condition and results of operations for the periods presented.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in our condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Examples of estimates include, but are not limited to, estimates of the fair values of financial instruments, interest income on mortgage-backed securities and allowances for credit losses. Actual results may differ from those estimates.

Significant Accounting Policies

There have been no changes to our accounting policies included in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.

Note 4 – Borrowings

We finance the majority of our investment portfolio through repurchase agreements. Our repurchase agreements bear interest at a contractually agreed upon rate and generally have maturities ranging from one to six months. We account for our repurchase agreements as secured borrowings since we maintain effective control of the financed assets. Our repurchase agreements are subject to certain financial covenants. We were in compliance with all of these covenants as of March 31, 2025.

The following tables summarize certain characteristics of our borrowings as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024. Refer to Note 5 - "Collateral Positions" for collateral pledged and held under our repurchase agreements.

Note 5 - Collateral Positions

The following table summarizes the fair value of collateral that we pledged and held under our repurchase agreements and derivative instruments as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024. Refer to Note 2 - “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies - Fair Value Measurements” of our consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 for a description of how we determine fair value. Agency RMBS and Agency CMBS collateral pledged is included in mortgage-backed securities on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. Cash collateral pledged on centrally cleared interest rate swaps and futures contracts is classified as restricted cash on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. Cash collateral pledged on to-be-announced securities forward contracts (“TBAs”) accounted for as derivatives is classified as due from counterparties on our condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Cash collateral held that is not restricted for use is included in cash and cash equivalents on our condensed consolidated balance sheets and the liability to return the collateral is included in collateral held payable. Non-cash collateral held is only recognized if the counterparty defaults or if we sell the pledged collateral. As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, we did not recognize any non-cash collateral held on our condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Repurchase Agreements

Collateral pledged with our repurchase agreement counterparties is segregated in our books and records. The repurchase agreement counterparties have the right to resell and repledge the collateral posted but have the obligation to return the pledged collateral, or substantially the same collateral if agreed to by us, upon maturity of the repurchase agreement. Under the repurchase agreements, the respective lender retains the contractual right to mark the underlying collateral to fair value. We would be required to provide additional collateral to fund margin calls if the value of pledged assets declined. We intend to maintain a level of liquidity that will enable us to meet any reasonably anticipated margin calls.

The ratio of our total repurchase agreements collateral pledged to our total repurchase agreements outstanding was 105% as of March 31, 2025 (December 31, 2024: 105%) based on the fair value of the securities as reported in our condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Interest Rate Swaps

As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, all of our interest rate swaps were centrally cleared by a registered clearing organization such as the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (“CME”) through a Futures Commission Merchant (“FCM”). We are required to pledge initial margin and daily variation margin for our centrally cleared interest rate swaps that is based on the fair value of our contracts as determined by our FCM. Collateral pledged with our FCM is segregated in our books and records and can be in the form of cash or securities. Daily variation margin for centrally cleared interest rate swaps is characterized as settlement of the derivative itself rather than collateral and is recorded as gain (loss) on derivative instruments, net in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. Certain of our FCM agreements include cross default provisions.

Futures Contracts

We are required to pledge initial margin and daily variation margin for our futures contracts that is based on the fair value of our contracts as determined by our FCM. The daily variation margin payment for our futures contracts is characterized as settlement of the futures contract itself rather than collateral and is recorded as gain (loss) on derivative instruments, net in our condensed consolidated statement of operations.

TBAs

Our TBAs provide for bilateral collateral pledging based on market value as determined by our counterparties. Collateral pledged with our TBA counterparties is segregated in our books and records and can be in the form of cash or securities. Our counterparties have the right to repledge the collateral posted and have the obligation to return the pledged collateral, or substantially the same collateral, if agreed to by us, as the market value of the contracts changes.

Refer to Note 5 - "Collateral Positions" for further information regarding our collateral pledged to and received from our derivative counterparties.

Interest Rate Swaps

At each settlement date, we typically refinance each repurchase agreement at the market interest rate at that time. Our objectives in using interest rate derivatives are to add stability to interest expense and to manage our exposures to interest rate movements. To accomplish these objectives, we primarily use interest rate swaps, as well as futures contracts, as part of our interest rate risk management strategy. Under the terms of our interest rate swap contracts, we make fixed-rate payments to a counterparty in exchange for the receipt of floating-rate amounts over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount.

Table of Contents

As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, we had interest rate swaps whereby we pay interest at a fixed rate and receive floating interest based on the secured overnight financing rate (“SOFR”) with the following maturities outstanding.

Note 7 – Offsetting Assets and Liabilities

Certain of our repurchase agreements and derivative transactions are governed by underlying agreements that generally provide for a right of offset under master netting arrangements (or similar agreements) in the event of default or in the event of bankruptcy of either party to the transactions. Assets and liabilities subject to such arrangements are presented on a gross basis in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Table of Contents

The following tables present information about the assets and liabilities that are subject to master netting arrangements (or similar agreements) and can potentially be offset on our condensed consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024. The daily variation margin payments for centrally cleared interest rate swaps and futures contracts are characterized as settlement of the derivative itself rather than collateral. Our derivative asset of $2.1 million related to centrally cleared interest rate swaps and derivative liability of $710,000 related to futures contracts as of March 31, 2025 (December 31, 2024: assets of $1.5 million and $3.5 million related to centrally cleared interest rate swaps and futures contracts, respectively) are not included in the table below as a result of this characterization of daily variation margin.

(1)Amounts represent derivative assets and derivative liabilities which could potentially be offset against other derivative assets, derivative liabilities and cash collateral pledged or received.

(2)Cash collateral pledged by us on our derivatives was $138.9 million as of March 31, 2025 (December 31, 2024: $138.1 million) of which $138.6 million relates to initial margin pledged on centrally cleared interest rate swaps and futures contracts (December 31, 2024: $137.5 million). Centrally cleared interest rate swaps and futures contracts are excluded from the tables above. We held $196,000 of cash collateral on our derivatives as of March 31, 2025 (December 31, 2024: none).

(3)The fair value of securities pledged against our borrowings under repurchase agreements was $5.6 billion as of March 31, 2025 (December 31, 2024: $5.1 billion). We held $1.3 million of cash collateral under repurchase agreements as of March 31, 2025 (December 31, 2024: none). Gross amounts not offset are limited to the net amount of repurchase agreement liabilities presented sufficient to reduce the net amount to zero for each counterparty. Accordingly, cash collateral held under repurchase agreements is not shown in the table above, but the obligation to return the cash collateral is separately reported within collateral held payable on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Note 8 – Fair Value of Financial Instruments

A three-level valuation hierarchy exists for disclosure of fair value measurements based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date. Observable inputs reflect readily obtainable data from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect our market assumptions. The three levels are defined as follows:

•Level 1 Inputs – Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.

•Level 2 Inputs – Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations whose inputs are observable or whose significant value drivers are observable.

•Level 3 Inputs – Instruments with primarily unobservable value drivers.

The following tables present our assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis.

Note 9 – Related Party Transactions

Our Manager is at all times subject to the supervision and oversight of our board of directors and has only such functions and authority as we delegate to it. Under the terms of our management agreement, our Manager and its affiliates provide us with our management team, including our officers and appropriate support personnel. Each of our officers is an employee of our Manager or one of its affiliates. We do not have any employees. Our Manager is not obligated to dedicate any of its employees exclusively to us, nor is our Manager obligated to dedicate any specific portion of time to our business. The costs of support personnel provided by our Manager for the three months ended March 31, 2025 reimbursed or reimbursable by us were $293,000 (March 31, 2024: $231,000).

Management Fee

We pay our Manager a fee equal to 1.50% of our stockholders' equity per annum. For purposes of calculating the management fee, stockholders' equity is calculated as average month-end stockholders' equity for the prior calendar quarter as determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Stockholders' equity may exclude one-time events due to changes in U.S. GAAP and certain non-cash items upon approval by a majority of our independent directors.

During the periods presented in these condensed consolidated financial statements, we did not pay any management fees on our investments in unconsolidated ventures that are managed by an affiliate of our Manager.

Expense Reimbursement

We are required to reimburse our Manager for operating expenses incurred on our behalf, including directors and officers insurance, accounting services, auditing and tax services, legal services, filing fees, and miscellaneous general and administrative costs. Our reimbursement obligation is not subject to any dollar limitation.

The following table summarizes the costs incurred on our behalf by our Manager during the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

In this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, or this "Quarterly Report," we refer to Invesco Mortgage Capital Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries as "we," "us," "our Company," or "our," unless we specifically state otherwise or the context indicates otherwise. We refer to our external manager, Invesco Advisers, Inc., as our "Manager," and we refer to the indirect parent company of our Manager, Invesco Ltd. together with its consolidated subsidiaries (which does not include us), as "Invesco."

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes to our condensed consolidated financial statements, which are included in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report, as well as the information contained in our most recent Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

Forward-Looking Statements

We make forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report and other filings we make with the SEC within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and such statements are intended to be covered by the safe harbor provided by the same. Forward-looking statements are subject to substantial risks and uncertainties, many of which are difficult to predict and are generally beyond our control. These forward-looking statements include information about possible or assumed future results of our business, investment strategies, financial condition, liquidity, results of operations, plans, objectives and our views on domestic and global market conditions (including the Agency RMBS, Agency CMBS and residential and commercial real estate markets). When we use the words “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “plan,” “intend,” “project,” “forecast” or similar expressions and future or conditional verbs such as “will,” “may,” “could,” “should,” and “would,” and any other statement that necessarily depends on future events, we intend to identify forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements may contain such words.

The forward-looking statements are based on our beliefs, assumptions and expectations of our future performance, taking into account all information currently available to us. You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. These beliefs, assumptions and expectations can change as a result of many possible events or factors, not all of which are known to us. We caution you not to rely unduly on any forward-looking statements and urge you to carefully consider the factors described under the headings "Risk Factors" and "Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" and elsewhere in this Report and our Annual Report on Form 10-K. If a change occurs, our business, financial condition, liquidity and results of operations may vary materially from those expressed in our forward-looking statements. Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which it is made. New risks and uncertainties arise over time, and it is not possible for us to predict those events or how they may affect us. Except as required by law, we are not obligated to, and do not intend to, update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Executive Summary

We are a Maryland corporation primarily focused on investing in, financing and managing mortgage-backed securities (“MBS”) and other mortgage-related assets. Our objective is to provide attractive risk-adjusted returns to our stockholders, primarily through dividends and secondarily through capital appreciation.

As of March 31, 2025, we were invested in:

•residential mortgage-backed securities (“RMBS”) that are guaranteed by a U.S. government agency such as the Government National Mortgage Association (“Ginnie Mae”), or a federally chartered corporation such as the Federal National Mortgage Association (“Fannie Mae” or “FNMA”) or the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“Freddie Mac” or “FHLMC”) (collectively “Agency RMBS”);

•commercial mortgage-backed securities (“CMBS”) that are guaranteed by a U.S. government agency such as Ginnie Mae or a federally chartered corporation such as Freddie Mac or Fannie Mae (collectively “Agency CMBS”); and

•RMBS that are not guaranteed by a U.S. government agency or a federally chartered corporation (“non-Agency RMBS”).

During the periods presented in this Quarterly Report, we also invested in:

•CMBS that are not guaranteed by a U.S. government agency or a federally chartered corporation (“non-Agency CMBS”);

•to-be-announced securities forward contracts (“TBAs”) to purchase Agency RMBS;

•U.S. Treasury securities; and

•a real estate-related financing arrangement in the form of an unconsolidated venture.

We continuously evaluate new investment opportunities to complement our current investment portfolio by expanding our target assets and portfolio diversification.

We conduct our business through our wholly-owned subsidiary, IAS Operating Partnership L.P. (the “Operating Partnership”). We are externally managed and advised by our Manager, an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Invesco.

We have elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) for U.S. federal income tax purposes under the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986. To maintain our REIT qualification, we are generally required to distribute at least 90% of our REIT taxable income to our stockholders annually. We operate our business in a manner that permits our exclusion from the definition of “Investment Company” under the 1940 Act.

Market Conditions and Impacts

Macroeconomic factors that affect our business include inflation, economic growth, employment conditions, interest rates, interest rate volatility, fiscal and monetary policy, public policy, financial conditions, spread premiums, residential and commercial real estate prices, credit availability, the health of the banking system, consumer personal income and spending and corporate earnings. Of these macroeconomic factors, financial conditions, inflation, employment conditions, monetary policy, public policy, interest rates and interest rate volatility had the most direct impacts on our performance and financial condition during the first quarter of 2025.

Financial conditions tightened during the first quarter, shifting from a largely accommodative position to more balanced as equity markets, credit spreads and volatility measures all reacted negatively to the potential impacts of significant changes to U.S. fiscal and trade policies. Equity markets repriced lower during the first quarter, with the S&P 500 declining 4.6% while the NASDAQ fell 10.4%. The CBOE SPX Volatility Index (“VIX”) reflected the uncertainty brought on by these policy changes, increasing by over 28% during the quarter. Credit spreads reacted similarly, with investment grade credit, high yield and emerging markets spreads all materially wider.

While inflation readings trended lower during the quarter, they remained above the Federal Reserve’s 2% inflation target. The headline consumer price index (“CPI”) ended the quarter 2.4% higher on a year-over-year basis, down from a rate of 2.9% at year end, while the year-over-year change in CPI (excluding food and energy) fell to 2.8% from 3.2%. Despite the improvement in CPI reports, investors increased expectations for future inflation given concerns about the potential impact of shifting trade policy. Treasury inflation-protected securities breakeven rates increased during the quarter, with the two-year breakeven ending the quarter at 3.3% (up from 2.5% at year-end) and the five-year breakeven ending at 2.6% (up from 2.4%). Meanwhile, employment data released during the quarter reflected a slowing labor market, as the economy added an average of 152,000 jobs per month during the first quarter after adding an average of 209,000 jobs during the fourth quarter.

Even as inflation expectations were increasing, softer employment data and fears that the combination of potential trade wars and fiscal austerity would contribute to an economic slowdown led to a re-pricing of the market’s expectations of future monetary policy. Federal Funds futures market expectations as of March 31, 2025 reflected a further 75 basis point reduction of the target rate through the end of the year. Quantitative tightening continued in the first quarter of 2025, as the Federal Reserve passively reduced the size of its balance sheet through maturities of U.S. Treasuries and paydowns of Agency RMBS. At their March meeting, the Federal Reserve announced that they would begin slowing the pace of quantitative tightening by lowering the cap on the amount of Treasuries allowed to mature per month without being reinvested to $5 billion from $25 billion, while leaving the cap on mortgage-backed securities unchanged at $35 billion per month.

Interest rates dropped across the maturity spectrum during the first quarter. The yield on the two-year Treasury decreased 34 basis points to 3.91%, the yield on the five-year Treasury decreased 41 basis points to 3.98% and the yield on the ten-year Treasury decreased 34 basis points to 4.24%. Short-dated interest rate volatility increased over the quarter, reflecting the market’s shifting expectations of monetary and trade policy, while longer-dated volatility declined modestly.

Against this macroeconomic backdrop, Agency RMBS performance was relatively consistent with Treasuries during the first quarter, with higher coupons modestly outperforming. Supply and demand technicals for higher coupon Agency RMBS were supportive as originations remained subdued given slower housing seasonals and elevated mortgage rates, while banks, money managers and mortgage REITs net added exposure during the quarter. Prepayment speeds remained at low levels given limited purchase and refinancing activity. However, a notable decline in mortgage rates in the latter half of the quarter should result in faster prepayment speeds in the coming months, as the decline coincided with the seasonal increase in housing activity. Premiums on specified pool collateral were largely unchanged during the quarter as the move lower in mortgage rates led to support for prepayment protection. Additionally, Agency CMBS risk premiums increased during the first quarter, reflecting weakness in broader fixed income markets.

Outlook

Recently proposed changes to U.S. fiscal and trade policy have negatively impacted financial markets and could result in slower economic growth, higher inflation and further market volatility. As such, we remain cautious on the near-term outlook for Agency RMBS. However, our long-term outlook for Agency RMBS is favorable, as we expect demand to improve in higher coupons given attractive valuations, an eventual decline in interest rate volatility and a steeper yield curve. Lastly, while Agency CMBS risk premiums may remain elevated until sentiment in the broader fixed income market improves, limited issuance, strong fundamental performance and stable cash flow profiles should provide favorable support for this sector.

Table of Contents

Our purchases of Agency RMBS have been primarily focused on specified pools with attractive prepayment profiles. We seek to capitalize on the impact of prepayments on our investment portfolio by purchasing specified pools with characteristics that optimize borrower incentive to prepay for both our premium and discount priced investments. The table below shows the specified pool characteristics of our 30 year fixed-rate Agency RMBS holdings as of March 31, 2025, December 31, 2024 and March 31, 2024.

As of March 31, 2025, our holdings of Agency CMBS represented approximately 15% of our total investment portfolio versus 15% as of December 31, 2024 and 5% as of March 31, 2024. Our Agency CMBS benefit from prepayment protection characteristics and have an attractive return profile. Further, the hedging costs related to these holdings are economical as they are less sensitive to interest rate risk given prepayment protection and scheduled balloon maturity payments. As of March 31, 2025, approximately 81% of our Agency CMBS were Fannie Mae DUS and 19% were Freddie Mac Multifamily Participation Certificates.

As of March 31, 2025, December 31, 2024 and March 31, 2024, our holdings of non-Agency securities represented less than 1% of our total investment portfolio. In the first quarter of 2025, we sold our remaining non-Agency CMBS investment.

Financing and Other Liabilities

We finance the majority of our investment portfolio through repurchase agreements. Repurchase agreements are generally settled on a short-term basis, usually from one to six months, and bear interest at rates that are expected to move in close relationship to the secured overnight financing rate (“SOFR”).

The following table presents the amount of collateralized borrowings outstanding under repurchase agreements as of the end of each quarter, the average amount outstanding during the quarter and the maximum balance outstanding during the quarter.

(1)Average quarterly balance for each period is based on month-end balances.

(2)Amount represents the maximum borrowings at month-end during each of the respective periods.

Hedging Instruments

We enter into interest rate swap agreements that are designed to mitigate the effects of changes in interest rates for a portion of our borrowings. Under these swap agreements, we generally pay fixed interest rates and receive floating interest rates indexed to SOFR.

We actively manage our interest rate swap portfolio as the size and composition of our investment portfolio changes. During the three months ended March 31, 2025, we entered into interest rate swaps with a notional amount of $725.0 million and terminated existing interest rate swaps with a notional amount of $350.0 million.

Table of Contents

We also use futures contracts as an alternative way to help mitigate the potential impact of changes in interest rates on our performance. During the three months ended March 31, 2025, we entered into futures contracts with a notional amount of $1.4 billion and terminated existing futures contracts with a notional amount of $1.9 billion.

Daily variation margin for interest rate swaps and futures contracts is characterized as settlement of the derivative itself rather than collateral and is recorded as a realized gain or loss in our condensed consolidated statement of operations.

Interest Income and Average Earning Asset Yields

The table below presents information related to our average earning assets and earning asset yields for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024.


	Three Months Ended March 31,
$ in thousands	2025		2024
Average earning assets (1)	5,422,552		4,972,242
Average earning asset yields (2)	5.45	%	5.52	%

(1)Average balances for each period are based on weighted month-end balances.

(2)Average earning asset yields for the period were calculated by dividing interest income, including amortization of premiums and discounts, by average earning assets based on the amortized cost of the investments. All yields are annualized.

Total average earning assets increased $450.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to the same period in 2024. Changes in our average earning assets are a factor of our total stockholders' equity and our desired leverage levels.

Average earning asset yields decreased 7 basis points for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to the same period in 2024. Changes in our average earning asset yields are driven by the composition of our investments, amortized cost of our securities and prepayment rates.

Our interest income includes coupon interest and net (premium amortization) discount accretion as shown in the table below.


	Three Months Ended March 31,
$ in thousands	2025	2024
Interest Income
Coupon interest	73,636	67,442
Net (premium amortization) discount accretion	210	1,141
Total interest income	73,846	68,583

Our interest income increased for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to the same period in 2024 due to an increase in average earning assets.

Prepayment Speeds

Our RMBS portfolio is subject to inherent prepayment risk primarily driven by changes in interest rates, which impacts the amount of premium and discount on the purchase of these securities that is recognized into interest income. Generally, in an environment of falling interest rates, prepayment speeds will increase as homeowners are more likely to prepay their existing mortgage and refinance into a lower borrowing rate. In an environment of rising interest rates, prepayment speeds will generally decrease as homeowners are not as incentivized to refinance. For Agency RMBS where we do not estimate prepayments, premium amortization and discount accretion are not impacted by prepayments until actual prepayments occur. For those securities on which we do estimate prepayments, expected future prepayment speeds are estimated on at least a quarterly basis. If the actual prepayment speed during the period is faster than estimated, the amortization on securities purchased at a premium to par value will be accelerated, resulting in lower interest income recognized. Conversely, for securities purchased at a discount to par value, interest income will be reduced in periods where prepayment speeds were slower than expected.

Table of Contents

The following table presents net (premium amortization) discount accretion recognized for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024.

Non-Agency CMBS	—	127
Non-Agency RMBS	(64)	(126)
U.S. Treasury Securities	—	(1)
Net (premium amortization) discount accretion	210	1,141

Net discount accretion decreased for three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to the same period in 2024 as we have repositioned a portion of our investment portfolio into higher coupon securities that have higher amortized costs relative to principal value.

Our interest income is subject to interest rate risk. Refer to Item 3. "Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk" for more information relating to interest rate risk and its impact on our operating results.

Interest Expense and Cost of Funds

The table below presents information related to our borrowings and cost of funds for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024.


	Three Months Ended March 31,
$ in thousands	2025		2024
Total average borrowings (1)	4,930,237		4,419,757
Maximum borrowings during the period (2)	5,354,561		4,531,261
Cost of funds (3)	4.46	%	5.57	%

(1)Average borrowings for each period are based on weighted month-end balances.

(2)Amount represents the maximum borrowings at month-end during each of the respective periods.

(3)Average cost of funds is calculated by dividing annualized interest expense by our average borrowings.

Total average borrowings increased $510.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to the same period in 2024. Changes in our average borrowings are a factor of our total stockholders' equity and our desired leverage levels.

Our average cost of funds decreased 111 basis points for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to the same period in 2024. Changes in our costs of funds are substantially driven by the Federal Funds target rate, which the FOMC lowered from a range of 5.25% to 5.50% as of January 1, 2024 to 4.25% to 4.50% as of March 31, 2025.

The table below presents the components of interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024.


	Three Months Ended March 31,
$ in thousands	2025	2024
Interest Expense
Interest expense on repurchase agreement borrowings	55,025	61,580
Total interest expense	55,025	61,580

Our interest expense decreased for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to the same period in 2024 due to a lower cost of funds, which was partially offset by an increase in average borrowings.

Net Interest Income

The table below presents the components of net interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024.


	Three Months Ended March 31,
$ in thousands	2025		2024

Interest income	73,846		68,583
Interest expense	55,025		61,580
Net interest income	18,821		7,003
Net interest rate margin	0.99	%	(0.05)	%

Our net interest income, which equals total interest income less total interest expense, and our net interest rate margin, which equals the yield on our average earning assets for the period less the average cost of funds, increased for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to the same period in 2024 due to a lower cost of funds. Our cost of funds is generally more sensitive to changes in interest rates than the yield on our investment portfolio, which is largely comprised of 30 year fixed-rate Agency RMBS.

Gain (Loss) on Investments, net

The table below summarizes the components of gain (loss) on investments, net for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024.


	Three Months Ended March 31,
$ in thousands	2025	2024
Net realized gains (losses) on sale of MBS	(5,466)	(3,222)
Net unrealized gains (losses) on MBS accounted for under the fair value option	87,624	(62,473)
Net unrealized gains (losses) on U.S. Treasury securities	—	(372)
Net realized gains (losses) on U.S. Treasury securities	—	(86)
Total gain (loss) on investments, net	82,158	(66,153)

During the three months ended March 31, 2025, we sold MBS and realized net losses of $5.5 million (March 31, 2024: $3.2 million). Net realized losses during the three months ended March 31, 2025 reflect sales of 4.0% coupon Agency RMBS. Net realized losses during the three months ended March 31, 2024 reflect sales of lower coupon Agency RMBS with a portion of the proceeds being used to purchase Agency CMBS.

We have elected the fair value option for all of our MBS purchased on or after September 1, 2016. Before September 1, 2016, we had also elected the fair value option for our non-Agency RMBS interest-only securities. Under the fair value option, changes in fair value are recognized in income in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. As of March 31, 2025, $5.9 billion (December 31, 2024: $5.4 billion) or 99.9% (December 31, 2024: 99.7%) of our MBS were accounted for under the fair value option.

We recorded net unrealized gains on our MBS portfolio accounted for under the fair value option of $87.6 million in the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to net unrealized losses of $62.5 million in the three months ended March 31, 2024. Net unrealized gains in the three months ended March 31, 2025 resulted from a sharp decline in interest rates during the quarter, as valuations on fixed-rate securities increased as interest rates fell. Net unrealized losses in the three months ended March 31, 2024 resulted from higher interest rates during the quarter, as valuations on fixed-rate securities declined as interest rates rose.

We recorded net realized and unrealized losses of $458,000 on U.S. Treasury securities in the three months ended March 31, 2024. We did not hold any U.S. Treasury securities during the three months ended March 31, 2025.

(Increase) Decrease in Provision for Credit Losses

As of March 31, 2025, $5.1 million of our MBS are classified as available-for-sale and subject to evaluation for credit losses (December 31, 2024: $15.0 million). During the three months ended March 31, 2025, we sold the only security for which we had recorded an allowance for credit losses. We recorded a $39,000 increase in the provision for credit losses during the three months ended March 31, 2024 on the same security based on a comparison of the security's amortized cost basis to discounted expected cash flows.

Equity in Earnings (Losses) of Unconsolidated Ventures

For the three months ended March 31, 2024, we recorded equity in losses of $193,000. We received a final distribution from our sole remaining unconsolidated venture during the first quarter of 2024, and the venture was dissolved in April 2024.

Gain (Loss) on Derivative Instruments, net

We record all derivatives on our condensed consolidated balance sheets at fair value. Changes in the fair value of our derivatives are recorded in gain (loss) on derivative instruments, net in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. Net interest paid or received under our interest rate swaps is also recognized in gain (loss) on derivative instruments, net in our condensed consolidated statements of operations.

The tables below summarize our realized and unrealized gain (loss) on derivative instruments, net for the following periods.

During the three months ended March 31, 2025, we entered into interest rate swaps with a notional amount of $725.0 million and terminated existing interest rate swaps with a notional amount of $350.0 million. We recorded net losses of $47.6 million on interest rate swaps for the three months ended March 31, 2025 (March 31, 2024: net gains of $93.2 million) primarily due to changes in interest rate expectations.

As of March 31, 2025, we had $5.4 billion of repurchase agreement borrowings with a weighted average remaining maturity of 25 days. We typically refinance each repurchase agreement at market interest rates upon maturity. We use interest rate swaps to manage our exposure to changing interest rates and add stability to interest rate expense.

30 year U.S. Treasury futures	187,500	209,000
Total	902,500	1,402,000

We use futures contracts as an alternative way to help mitigate the potential impact of changes in interest rates on our performance. During the three months ended March 31, 2025, we entered into futures contracts with a notional amount of $1.4 billion and terminated existing futures contracts with a notional amount of $1.9 billion. We recognized net losses of $32.9 million on futures contracts during the three months ended March 31, 2025 due to changes in interest rate expectations. We did not hold any futures contracts during the three months ended March 31, 2024.

We primarily use TBAs that we do not intend to physically settle on the contractual settlement date as an alternative means of investing in and financing Agency RMBS. We recorded net gains of $3.8 million on TBAs during the three months ended March 31, 2025 due to a sharp decline in interest rates. We did not hold any TBAs during the three months ended March 31, 2024.

Expenses

We incurred management fees of $3.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 (March 31, 2024: $2.9 million). Management fees increased for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to the same period in 2024 due to higher average stockholders' equity. Refer to Note 9 – "Related Party Transactions" of our condensed consolidated financial statements for a discussion of our relationship with our Manager and a description of how our fees are calculated.

Our general and administrative expenses not covered under our management agreement amounted to $1.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 (March 31, 2024: $1.8 million). General and administrative expenses not covered under our management agreement primarily consist of directors and officers insurance, legal costs, accounting, auditing and tax services, filing fees and miscellaneous general and administrative costs.

Gain (Loss) on Repurchase and Retirement of Preferred Stock

In May 2022, our board of directors approved a share repurchase program for our Series B and Series C Preferred Stock. During the three months ended March 31, 2025, we repurchased and retired 90,146 shares of Series C Preferred Stock. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, we repurchased and retired 93,347 shares of Series B Preferred Stock and 95,917 shares of Series C Preferred Stock. Gains and losses on repurchases and retirements of preferred stock represent the difference between the consideration transferred and the carrying value of the preferred stock.

Net Income (Loss) Attributable to Common Stockholders

For the three months ended March 31, 2025, our net income attributable to common stockholders was $16.3 million (March 31, 2024: $23.7 million) or $0.26 basic and diluted net income per average share available to common stockholders (March 31, 2024: $0.49). The change in net income attributable to common stockholders was primarily due to (i) net gains on investments of $82.2 million in the 2025 period compared to net losses on investments of $66.2 million in the 2024 period; (ii) net losses on derivative instruments of $76.7 million in the 2025 period compared to net gains on derivatives of $93.2 million in the 2024 period; and (iii) an $11.8 million increase in net interest income.

For further information on the changes in net gain (loss) on investments, net gain (loss) on derivative instruments and changes in net interest income, see preceding discussion under “Gain (Loss) on Investments, net”, “Gain (Loss) on Derivative Instruments, net” and “Net Interest Income”.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The table below shows the non-GAAP financial measures we use to analyze our operating results and the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measures. We believe these non-GAAP measures are useful to investors in assessing our performance as discussed further below.


Non-GAAP Financial Measure						Most Directly Comparable U.S. GAAP Measure
Earnings available for distribution (and by calculation, earnings available for distribution per common share)						Net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders (and by calculation, basic earnings (loss) per common share)
Effective interest expense (and by calculation, effective cost of funds)						Total interest expense (and by calculation, cost of funds)
Effective net interest income (and by calculation, effective interest rate margin)						Net interest income (and by calculation, net interest rate margin)
Economic debt-to-equity ratio						Debt-to-equity ratio

The non-GAAP financial measures used by management should be analyzed in conjunction with U.S. GAAP financial measures and should not be considered substitutes for U.S. GAAP financial measures. In addition, the non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled non-GAAP financial measures of our peer companies.

Earnings Available for Distribution

Our business objective is to provide attractive risk-adjusted returns to our stockholders, primarily through dividends and secondarily through capital appreciation. We use earnings available for distribution as a measure of our investment portfolio’s ability to generate income for distribution to common stockholders and to evaluate our progress toward meeting this objective. We calculate earnings available for distribution as U.S. GAAP net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders adjusted for (gain) loss on investments, net; realized (gain) loss on derivative instruments, net; unrealized (gain) loss on derivative instruments, net; TBA dollar roll income; (gain) loss on repurchase and retirement of preferred stock and foreign currency (gains) losses, net.

By excluding the gains and losses discussed above, we believe the presentation of earnings available for distribution provides a consistent measure of operating performance that investors can use to evaluate our results over multiple reporting periods and, to a certain extent, compare to our peer companies. However, because not all of our peer companies use identical operating performance measures, our presentation of earnings available for distribution may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures used by our peer companies. We exclude the impact of gains and losses when calculating earnings available for distribution because (i) when analyzed in conjunction with our U.S. GAAP results, earnings available for distribution provides additional detail of our investment portfolio’s earnings capacity and (ii) gains and losses are not accounted for consistently under U.S. GAAP. Under U.S. GAAP, certain gains and losses are reflected in net income whereas other gains and losses are reflected in other comprehensive income. For example, a portion of our mortgage-backed securities are classified as available-for-sale securities, and we record changes in the valuation of these securities in other comprehensive income on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. We elected the fair value option for our mortgage-backed securities purchased on or after September 1, 2016, and changes in the valuation of these securities are recorded in other income (loss) in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. In addition, certain gains and losses represent one-time events. We may add and have added additional reconciling items to our earnings available for distribution calculation as appropriate.

To maintain our qualification as a REIT, U.S. federal income tax law generally requires that we distribute at least 90% of our REIT taxable income annually, determined without regard to the deduction for dividends paid and excluding net capital gains. We have historically distributed at least 100% of our REIT taxable income. Because we view earnings available for distribution as a consistent measure of our investment portfolio's ability to generate income for distribution to common stockholders, earnings available for distribution is one metric, but not the exclusive metric, that our board of directors uses to determine the amount, if any, and the payment date of dividends on our common stock. However, earnings available for distribution should not be considered as an indication of our taxable income, a guaranty of our ability to pay dividends or as a proxy for the amount of dividends we may pay, as earnings available for distribution excludes certain items that impact our cash needs.

Earnings available for distribution is an incomplete measure of our financial performance and there are other factors that impact the achievement of our business objective. We caution that earnings available for distribution should not be considered as an alternative to net income (determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP) or as an indication of our cash flow from operating activities (determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP), a measure of our liquidity or as an indication of amounts available to fund our cash needs.

(2)A TBA dollar roll is a series of derivative transactions where TBAs with the same specified issuer, term and coupon but different settlement dates are simultaneously bought and sold. The TBA settling in the later month typically prices at a discount to the TBA settling in the earlier month. TBA dollar roll income represents the price differential between the TBA price for current month settlement versus the TBA price for forward month settlement. We include TBA dollar roll income in earnings available for distribution because it is the economic equivalent of interest income on the underlying Agency RMBS, less an implied financing cost, over the forward settlement period. TBA dollar roll income is a component of gain (loss) on derivative instruments, net on our condensed consolidated statements of operations.

(3)Earnings available for distribution per common share is equal to earnings available for distribution divided by the basic weighted average number of common shares outstanding.

lower preferred dividends due to the redemption of our Series B Preferred Stock in December 2024. See below for details on the change in effective net interest income.

Effective Interest Expense / Effective Cost of Funds / Effective Net Interest Income / Effective Interest Rate Margin

We calculate effective interest expense (and by calculation, effective cost of funds) as U.S. GAAP total interest expense adjusted for contractual net interest income (expense) on our interest rate swaps that is recorded as gain (loss) on derivative instruments. We view our interest rate swaps as an economic hedge against increases in future market interest rates on our borrowings. We add back the net payments or receipts on our interest rate swap agreements to our total U.S. GAAP interest expense because we use interest rate swaps to add stability to interest expense.

We calculate effective net interest income (and by calculation, effective interest rate margin) as U.S. GAAP net interest income adjusted for contractual net interest income (expense) on our interest rate swaps that is recorded as gain (loss) on derivative instruments, net.

We believe the presentation of effective interest expense, effective cost of funds, effective net interest income and effective interest rate margin measures, when considered together with U.S. GAAP financial measures, provides information that is useful to investors in understanding our borrowing costs and operating performance.

Our effective interest expense increased in the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to the same period in 2024 due to a decrease in contractual net interest income on interest rate swaps and higher average borrowings, which were partially offset by a lower Federal Funds target rate.

Our effective cost of funds increased in the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to the same period in 2024 due to a decrease in contractual net interest income on interest rate swaps, which was partially offset by a lower Federal Funds target rate.

In addition to changes caused by the underlying floating rate index, the amount of contractual net interest income or expense on interest rate swaps that we recognize has changed based on changes in the size and composition of our interest rate swap portfolio. During the third quarter of 2024, we also began using futures contracts, which do not earn or incur contractual interest, in lieu of certain interest rate swaps as an alternative way to help mitigate the potential impact of changing interest rates on our performance. See preceding discussion under “Gain (Loss) on Derivative Instruments, net” for details of our interest rate swap portfolio as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

Our effective net interest income and effective net interest rate margin decreased in the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to the same period in 2024 due to a decrease in contractual net interest income on interest rate swaps, which was partially offset by a lower Federal Funds target rate.

Economic Debt-to-Equity Ratio

The table below shows our debt-to-equity ratio and our economic debt-to-equity ratio as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024. Our debt-to-equity ratio is calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP and is the ratio of total debt to total stockholders' equity.

We present an economic debt-to-equity ratio, a non-GAAP financial measure of leverage that considers the impact of the off-balance sheet financing of our investments in TBAs that are accounted for as derivative instruments under U.S. GAAP. We include our TBAs at implied cost basis in our measure of leverage because a forward contract to acquire Agency RMBS in the TBA market carries similar risks to Agency RMBS purchased in the cash market and funded with on-balance sheet liabilities. Similarly, a contract for the forward sale of Agency RMBS has substantially the same effect as selling the underlying Agency RMBS and reducing our on-balance sheet funding commitments. We believe that presenting our economic debt-to-equity ratio, when considered together with our U.S. GAAP financial measure of debt-to-equity ratio, provides information that is useful to investors in understanding how management evaluates our at-risk leverage and gives investors a comparable statistic to those of other mortgage REITs who also invest in TBAs and present a similar non-GAAP measure of leverage.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity is a measure of our ability to meet potential cash requirements, including ongoing commitments to pay dividends, fund investments, repay borrowings and fund other general business needs. Our primary sources of funds for liquidity consist of the net proceeds from our common equity offerings, net cash provided by operating activities, proceeds from repurchase agreements and other financing arrangements and future issuances of equity and/or debt securities.

We currently believe that we have sufficient liquidity and capital resources available for the acquisition of additional investments, repayments on borrowings, margin requirements and the payment of cash dividends as required for continued qualification as a REIT. We generally maintain liquidity to pay down borrowings under repurchase arrangements to reduce borrowing costs and otherwise efficiently manage our long-term investment capital. Because the level of these borrowings can be adjusted on a daily basis, the level of cash and cash equivalents carried on our condensed consolidated balance sheets is

Table of Contents

significantly less important than our potential liquidity available under borrowing arrangements or through the sale of liquid investments. However, there can be no assurance that we will maintain sufficient levels of liquidity to meet any margin calls.

We held cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash of $181.5 million as of March 31, 2025 (March 31, 2024: $200.5 million). Our cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash change due to normal fluctuations in cash balances related to the timing of principal and interest payments, repayments of debt, and asset purchases and sales. Our operating activities provided net cash of approximately $19.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 (March 31, 2024: $57.5 million).

Our investing activities used net cash of $516.5 million in the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to net cash provided by investing activities of $37.1 million in the three months ended March 31, 2024. We used cash of $884.4 million to purchase MBS during the three months ended March 31, 2025 (March 31, 2024: $390.4 million). Our primary source of cash from investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2025 was proceeds from sales of MBS of $373.6 million (March 31, 2024: $296.5 million from the sales of MBS and $10.8 million from the sale of U.S. Treasury securities). We also generated $95.3 million from principal payments of MBS during the three months ended March 31, 2025 (March 31, 2024: $71.2 million) and used cash of $101.5 million to settle derivative contracts in the three months ended March 31, 2025 (March 31, 2024: net cash received of $48.7 million).

Our financing activities provided net cash of $467.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to net cash used by financing activities of $92.7 million in the three months ended March 31, 2024. During the three months ended March 31, 2025, we received net cash from proceeds on our repurchase agreements of $460.6 million (March 31, 2024: $64.4 million cash used for net repayments). We used cash of $28.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 to pay dividends (March 31, 2024: $25.0 million). Proceeds from issuance of common stock provided $36.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 (March 31, 2024: $3.3 million).

As of March 31, 2025, the average margin requirement (weighted by borrowing amount), or the haircut, under our repurchase agreements was 4.5% for Agency RMBS and 4.8% for Agency CMBS. The haircuts ranged from a low of 3% to a high of 5% for Agency RMBS and Agency CMBS. Declines in the value of our securities portfolio can trigger margin calls by our lenders under our repurchase agreements. An event of default or termination event may give our counterparties the option to terminate all repurchase transactions outstanding with us and require any amount due from us to the counterparties to be payable immediately.

Effects of Margin Requirements, Leverage and Spreads

Our securities have values that fluctuate according to market conditions and the market value of our securities will decrease as prevailing interest rates or spreads increase. When the value of the securities pledged to secure a repurchase loan decreases to the point where the positive difference between the collateral value and the loan amount is less than the haircut, our lenders may issue a “margin call”, which means that the lender will require us to pay cash or pledge additional collateral. Under our repurchase facilities, our lenders have full discretion to determine the value of the securities we pledge to them. Most of our lenders will value securities based on recent trades in the market. Lenders also issue margin calls as the published current principal balance factors change on the pool of mortgages underlying the securities pledged as collateral when scheduled and unscheduled paydowns are announced monthly.

We experience margin calls and increased collateral requirements in the ordinary course of our business. In seeking to effectively manage the margin requirements established by our lenders, we maintain a position of cash and unpledged securities. We refer to this position as our liquidity. The level of liquidity we have available to meet margin calls is directly affected by our leverage levels, our haircuts and the price changes on our securities. If interest rates increase or if spreads widen, then the prices of our collateral (and our unpledged assets that constitute our liquidity) will decline, we will experience margin calls, and we will seek to use our liquidity to meet the margin calls. There can be no assurance that we will maintain sufficient levels of liquidity to meet any margin calls or increased collateral requirements. If our haircuts increase, our liquidity will proportionately decrease. In addition, if we increase our borrowings, our liquidity will decrease by the amount of additional haircut on the increased level of indebtedness.

Our interest rate swaps and futures contracts require us to post initial margin and daily variation margin based on subsequent changes in their fair value. Daily variation margin requirements also entitle us to receive collateral from our counterparties if the value of amounts owed to us under the derivative agreement exceeds the minimum margin requirement.

We intend to maintain a level of liquidity in relation to our assets that enables us to meet reasonably anticipated margin calls and increased collateral requirements but that also allows us to be substantially invested in securities. We may misjudge the appropriate amount of our liquidity by maintaining excessive liquidity, which would lower our investment returns, or by maintaining insufficient liquidity, which would force us to liquidate assets into unfavorable market conditions and harm our results of operations and financial condition.

Table of Contents

We are subject to financial covenants in connection with our lending, derivatives and other agreements we enter into in the normal course of our business. We intend to operate in a manner which complies with all of our financial covenants. Our lending and derivative agreements provide that we may be declared in default of our obligations if our leverage ratio exceeds certain thresholds and we fail to maintain stockholders’ equity or market value above certain thresholds over specified time periods.

Forward-Looking Statements Regarding Liquidity

As of March 31, 2025, we held $5.6 billion of Agency securities that are financed by repurchase agreements. We also had approximately $328.9 million of unencumbered investments and unrestricted cash of $42.9 million as of March 31, 2025. As of March 31, 2025, our known contractual obligations primarily consisted of $5.4 billion of repurchase agreement borrowings with a weighted average remaining maturity of 25 days. We generally intend to refinance the majority of our repurchase agreement borrowings at market rates upon maturity. Repurchase agreement borrowings that are not refinanced upon maturity are typically repaid through the use of cash on hand or proceeds from sales of securities.

Based upon our current portfolio and existing borrowing arrangements, we believe that cash flow from operations and available borrowing capacity will be sufficient to enable us to meet anticipated short-term (one year or less) liquidity requirements to fund our investment activities, pay fees under our management agreement, fund our required distributions to stockholders and fund other general corporate expenses.

Our ability to meet our long-term (greater than one year) liquidity and capital resource requirements will be subject to obtaining additional debt financing. We may increase our capital resources by obtaining long-term credit facilities or through public or private offerings of equity or debt securities, possibly including classes of preferred stock, common stock, senior or subordinated notes and convertible notes. Such financing will depend on market conditions for capital raises and our ability to invest such offering proceeds. If we are unable to renew, replace or expand our sources of financing on substantially similar terms, it may have an adverse effect on our business and results of operations.

Exposure to Financial Counterparties

We finance a substantial portion of our investment portfolio through repurchase agreements. Under these agreements, we pledge assets from our investment portfolio as collateral. Additionally, certain counterparties may require us to provide cash collateral in the event the market value of the assets declines to maintain a contractual repurchase agreement collateral ratio. If a counterparty were to default on its obligations, we would be exposed to potential losses to the extent the fair value of collateral pledged by us to the counterparty including any accrued interest receivable on such collateral exceeded the amount loaned to us by the counterparty plus interest due to the counterparty.

As of March 31, 2025, one counterparty held collateral that exceeded the amounts borrowed under the related repurchase agreements by more than $38.0 million, or 5% of our stockholders' equity. The following table summarizes our exposure to counterparties by geographic concentration as of March 31, 2025. The information is based on the geographic headquarters of the counterparty or counterparty's parent company. However, our repurchase agreements are denominated in U.S. dollars.

Dividends

To maintain our qualification as a REIT, U.S. federal income tax law generally requires that we distribute at least 90% of our REIT taxable income annually, determined without regard to the deduction for dividends paid and excluding net capital gains. We must pay tax at regular corporate rates to the extent that we annually distribute less than 100% of our REIT taxable income. Before we pay any dividend, whether for U.S. federal income tax purposes or otherwise, we must first meet both our operating requirements and debt service on our repurchase agreements and other debt payable. If our cash available for distribution is less than our REIT taxable income, we could be required to sell assets or borrow funds to make cash distributions, or we may make a portion of the required distribution in the form of a taxable stock distribution or distribution of debt securities.

As discussed above, our distribution requirements are based on REIT taxable income rather than U.S. GAAP net income. The primary differences between our REIT taxable income and U.S. GAAP net income are: (i) unrealized gains and losses on investments that we have elected the fair value option for that are included in current U.S. GAAP income but are excluded from REIT taxable income until realized or settled; (ii) gains and losses on derivative instruments that are included in current U.S. GAAP net income but are excluded from REIT taxable income until realized; and (iii) temporary differences related to amortization of premiums and discounts on investments. For additional information regarding the characteristics of our dividends, refer to Note 11 – "Stockholders' Equity" of our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.

Unrelated Business Taxable Income

We have not engaged in transactions that would result in a portion of our income being treated as unrelated business taxable income.

Other Matters

We believe that we satisfied each of the asset tests in Section 856(c)(4) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code") for the period ended March 31, 2025, and that our proposed method of operation will permit us to satisfy the asset tests, gross income tests, and distribution and stock ownership requirements for our taxable year that will end on December 31, 2025.

At all times, we intend to conduct our business so that neither we nor our Operating Partnership nor the subsidiaries of our Operating Partnership are required to register as an investment company under the 1940 Act. If we were required to register as an investment company, then our use of leverage would be substantially reduced. Because we are a holding company that conducts our business through our Operating Partnership and the Operating Partnership’s wholly-owned or majority-owned subsidiaries, the securities issued by these subsidiaries that are excepted from the definition of "investment company" under Section 3(c)(1) or Section 3(c)(7) of the 1940 Act, together with any other investment securities the Operating Partnership may own, may not have a combined value in excess of 40% of the value of the Operating Partnership’s total assets (exclusive of U.S. government securities and cash items) on an unconsolidated basis, which we refer to as the 40% test. This requirement limits the types of businesses in which we are permitted to engage in through our subsidiaries. In addition, we believe neither we nor the Operating Partnership are considered an investment company under Section 3(a)(1)(A) of the 1940 Act because they do not engage primarily or hold themselves out as being engaged primarily in the business of investing, reinvesting or trading in securities. Rather, through the Operating Partnership’s wholly-owned or majority-owned subsidiaries, we and the Operating Partnership are primarily engaged in the non-investment company businesses of these subsidiaries. IAS Asset I LLC and certain of the Operating Partnership’s other subsidiaries that we may form in the future rely upon the exclusion from the definition of "investment company" under the 1940 Act provided by Section 3(c)(5)(C) of the 1940 Act, which is available for entities "primarily engaged in the business of purchasing or otherwise acquiring mortgages and other liens on and interests in real estate." This exclusion generally requires that at least 55% of each subsidiary’s portfolio be comprised of qualifying assets and at least 80% be comprised of qualifying assets and real estate-related assets (and no more than 20% comprised of miscellaneous assets). We calculate that as of March 31, 2025, we conducted our business so as not to be regulated as an investment company under the 1940 Act.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

The primary components of our market risk are related to interest rate, principal prepayment and market value. While we do not seek to avoid risk completely, we believe the risk can be quantified from historical experience and we seek to actively manage that risk, to earn sufficient compensation to justify taking those risks and to maintain capital levels consistent with the risks we undertake.

For additional discussion of market risk, see Part I. Item 1 - Risk Factors of our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.

Interest Rate Risk

Interest rate risk is highly sensitive to many factors, including governmental, monetary and tax policies, domestic and international economic and political considerations, and other factors beyond our control. We are subject to interest rate risk in connection with our investments and our repurchase agreements. Our repurchase agreements are typically short-term in nature and are periodically refinanced at current market rates. We typically mitigate this interest rate risk by utilizing derivative contracts, primarily interest rate swap agreements and futures contracts.

Interest Rate Effect on Net Interest Income

Our operating results depend in large part upon differences between the yields earned on our investments and our cost of borrowing and interest rate hedging activities. During periods of rising interest rates, the borrowing costs associated with our investments tend to increase while the income earned on our fixed interest rate investments may remain substantially unchanged. This increase in borrowing costs results in the narrowing of the net interest spread between the related assets and borrowings and may even result in losses. Further, defaults could increase and result in credit losses to us, which could adversely affect our liquidity and operating results. Such delinquencies or defaults could also have an adverse effect on the spread between interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities.

Hedging techniques are partly based on assumed levels of prepayments of our RMBS. If prepayments are slower or faster than assumed, the life of the RMBS will be longer or shorter, which would reduce the effectiveness of any hedging strategies we may use and may cause losses on such transactions. Hedging strategies involving the use of derivative securities are highly complex and may produce volatile returns.

Interest Rate Effects on Fair Value

Another component of interest rate risk is the effect that changes in interest rates will have on the market value of the assets that we acquire. We face the risk that the market value of our assets will increase or decrease at different rates than those of our liabilities, including our hedging instruments.

We primarily assess our interest rate risk by estimating the duration of our assets and the duration of our liabilities. Duration measures the market price volatility of financial instruments as interest rates change. We generally calculate duration using various financial models and empirical data. Different models and methodologies can produce different duration values for the same securities.

The impact of changing interest rates on fair value can change significantly when interest rates change materially. Therefore, the volatility in the fair value of our assets could increase significantly in the event interest rates change materially. In addition, other factors impact the fair value of our interest rate-sensitive investments and hedging instruments, such as the shape of the yield curve, market expectations as to future interest rate changes and other market conditions. Accordingly, changes in actual interest rates may have a material adverse effect on us.

Spread Risk

We refer to the difference between interest rates on our investments and interest rates on risk free instruments as spreads. We employ a variety of spread risk management techniques that seek to mitigate the influences of spread changes on our book value and our liquidity to help us achieve our investment objectives. The yield on our investments changes over time due to the level of risk free interest rates, the creditworthiness of the security, and the price of the perceived risk. The change in the market yield of our interest rate hedges also changes primarily with the level of risk free interest rates. We manage spread risk through careful asset selection, sector allocation, regulating our portfolio value-at-risk, and seeking to maintain adequate liquidity. Changes in spreads impact our book value and our liquidity and could cause us to sell assets and to change our investment strategy to maintain liquidity and preserve book value. Inflation, financial conditions, monetary policy initiatives, interest rates and interest rate volatility may have an impact on spreads.

Table of Contents

Prepayment Risk

As we receive prepayments of principal on our investments, premiums or discounts on these investments are amortized against interest income. In general, an increase in prepayment rates will accelerate the amortization of purchase premiums, thereby reducing the interest income earned on the investments. Conversely, discounts on such investments are accreted into interest income. In general, an increase in prepayment rates will accelerate the accretion of purchase discounts, thereby increasing the interest income earned on the investments.

Uncertainty regarding the rate of inflation, fiscal and monetary policy initiatives, elevated interest rate volatility and other factors have made it more difficult to predict prepayment levels for the securities in our portfolio. As a result, it is possible that realized prepayment behavior will be materially different from our expectations.

Extension Risk

We compute the projected weighted average life of our investments based upon assumptions regarding the rate at which the borrowers will prepay the underlying mortgages. In general, when a fixed-rate or hybrid adjustable-rate security is acquired with borrowings, we may, but are not required to, enter into an interest rate swap agreement or other hedging instrument that effectively fixes our borrowing costs for a period close to the anticipated average life of the fixed-rate portion of the related assets. This strategy is designed to protect us from rising interest rates, because the borrowing costs are fixed for the duration of the fixed-rate portion of the related target asset.

However, if prepayment rates decrease in a rising interest rate environment, then the life of the fixed-rate portion of the related assets could extend beyond the term of the swap agreement or other hedging instrument. This could have a negative impact on our results from operations, as borrowing costs would no longer be fixed after the end of the hedging instrument, while the income earned on the hybrid adjustable-rate assets would remain fixed. This situation may also cause the market value of our hybrid adjustable-rate assets to decline, with little or no offsetting gain from the related hedging transactions. In extreme situations, we may be forced to sell assets to maintain adequate liquidity, which could cause us to incur losses.

Market Risk

Market Value Risk

Our available-for-sale securities are reflected at their estimated fair value with unrealized gains and losses excluded from earnings and reported in other comprehensive income under ASC Topic 320. The estimated fair value of these securities fluctuates primarily due to changes in interest rates and other factors. Generally, in a rising interest rate environment, the estimated fair value of these securities would be expected to decrease; conversely, in a falling interest rate environment, the estimated fair value of these securities would be expected to increase.

Pandemics and other widespread crises, including any related fiscal or monetary policy responses, may cause extreme volatility and illiquidity in fixed income markets. The amount of financing we receive under our repurchase agreements is directly related to our counterparties’ valuation of our assets that collateralize the outstanding repurchase agreement financing. When these or similar market conditions are present, margin call risk is elevated and our operating results and financial condition may be materially impacted.

The sensitivity analysis table presented below shows the estimated impact of an instantaneous parallel shift in the yield curve, up and down 50 and 100 basis points, on the market value of our interest rate-sensitive investments and net interest income, including net interest paid or received under interest rate swaps, as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, assuming a static portfolio and constant financing and asset spreads. When evaluating the impact of changes in interest rates, prepayment assumptions and principal reinvestment rates are adjusted based on our Manager’s expectations. The analysis presented utilized assumptions, models and estimates of our Manager based on our Manager’s judgment and experience.


	As of March 31, 2025				As of December 31, 2024
Change in Interest Rates	Percentage Change in Projected Net Interest Income		Percentage Change in Projected Portfolio Value		Percentage Change in Projected Net Interest Income		Percentage Change in Projected Portfolio Value

Certain assumptions have been made in connection with the calculation of the information set forth in the foregoing interest rate sensitivity table and, as such, there can be no assurance that assumed events will occur or that other events will not occur that would affect the outcomes. The interest rate scenarios assume interest rates as of March 31, 2025 and December 31,

Table of Contents

2024. Furthermore, while the analysis reflects the estimated impact of interest rate increases and decreases on a static portfolio, we actively manage the size and composition of our investment and swap portfolios, which can result in material changes to our interest rate risk profile. When applicable, our scenario analysis assumes a floor of 0% for U.S. Treasury yields and, to be consistent, we also apply a floor of 0% for all related funding costs.

The information set forth in the interest rate sensitivity table above and all related disclosures constitutes forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimated in the foregoing interest rate sensitivity table.

Real Estate Risk

Residential and commercial property values are subject to volatility and may be adversely affected by a number of factors, including, but not limited to: national, regional and local economic conditions (which may be adversely affected by industry slowdowns and other factors); local real estate conditions (such as the supply of housing stock or other property sectors); changes or continued weakness in specific industry segments; construction quality, age and design; demographic factors; and retroactive changes to building or similar codes. In addition, decreases in property values reduce the value of the collateral and the potential proceeds available to a borrower to repay their loans, which could also cause us to suffer losses.

Credit Risk

We retain the risk of potential credit losses on all of our residential mortgage investments. We seek to manage this risk through our pre-acquisition due diligence process. In addition, we re-evaluate the credit risk inherent in our investments on a regular basis pursuant to fundamental considerations such as GDP, unemployment, interest rates, retail sales, store closings/openings, corporate earnings, housing inventory, affordability and regional home price trends. We also review key loan credit metrics including, but not limited to, payment status, current loan-to-value ratios, current borrower credit scores and debt yields. These characteristics assist in determining the likelihood and severity of loan loss as well as prepayment and extension expectations. We then perform structural analysis under multiple scenarios to establish likely cash flow profiles and credit enhancement levels relative to collateral performance projections. This analysis allows us to quantify our opinions of credit quality and fundamental value, which are key drivers of portfolio management decisions.

Deteriorating fundamentals and tightening lending conditions may cause borrowers to experience difficulties meeting their obligations and refinancing loans upon scheduled maturities. Loans may experience increasing delinquency levels and eventual defaults, which could impact the performance of our mortgage-backed securities. Rating agencies periodically reassess transactions negatively impacted by these adverse changes, which may result in our investments being downgraded.

Risk Management

To the extent consistent with maintaining our REIT qualification, we seek to manage risk exposure to protect our investment portfolio against the effects of major interest rate changes. We generally seek to manage this risk by:

•monitoring and adjusting, if necessary, the reset index and interest rate related to our target assets and our financings;

•attempting to structure our financing agreements to have a range of different maturities, terms, amortizations and interest rate adjustment periods;

•exploring options to obtain financing arrangements that are not marked to market;

•using hedging instruments, primarily interest rate swap agreements but also financial futures, options, interest rate cap agreements, floors and forward sales to adjust the interest rate sensitivity of our target assets and our borrowings; and

•actively managing, on an aggregate basis, the interest rate indices, interest rate adjustment periods, and gross reset margins of our target assets and the interest rate indices and adjustment periods of our financings.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act.

We have evaluated, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2025. Based upon our evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the applicable rules and forms, and that it is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Table of Contents

There are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any system of disclosure controls and procedures, including the possibility of human error and the circumvention or overriding of the controls and procedures. Accordingly, even effective disclosure controls and procedures can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended March 31, 2025 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
