NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Two Harbors Investment Corp. (NYSE: TWO), an MSR + Agency RMBS real estate investment trust (REIT), today announced its financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2024.
Quarterly Summary
- Reported book value of $15.64 per common share, and declared a first quarter common stock dividend of $0.45 per share, representing a 5.8% quarterly economic return on book value.(1)
- Generated Comprehensive Income of $89.4 million, or $0.85 per weighted average basic common share.
- Repurchased 485,609 shares of preferred stock, lowering the ratio of preferred stock to total equity.(2)
- Settled $3.1 billion unpaid principal balance (UPB) of MSR through a bulk purchase and flow-sale acquisitions.
"Stronger than expected economic data and sticky inflation readings pushed interest rates higher in the quarter, though the consensus view remains that a soft landing in 2024 is the most likely outcome," stated Bill Greenberg, Two Harbors' President and CEO. "Our portfolio of MSR, which represents more than 60% of our capital allocation, is positioned to benefit in an environment where rates are higher for longer. Our portfolio's prepayment sensitivity remains low, with less than 1% of loans having an economic incentive to refinance and over 85% of loans at least 250 basis points below current mortgage rates. We expect the low duration and low convexity characteristics of MSR to continue to generate attractive cashflows with low spread volatility."
"Though the market remains subject to periods of high realized rate volatility, nominal spreads for Agency RMBS are wide on a historical basis and provide attractive levered returns," stated Nick Letica, Two Harbors' Chief Investment Officer. "The likelihood of significant tightening of RMBS spreads seems remote absent a substantial dovish pivot by the Federal Reserve, which would also bring in bank buyers from the sidelines. We are content to let spreads sit at these levels - wider for longer - and are optimistic about the return potential of our portfolio going forward."

________________
| (1) | MSR amortization refers to the portion of change in fair value of MSR primarily attributed to the realization of expected cash flows (runoff) of the portfolio, which is deemed a non-GAAP measure due to the company's decision to account for MSR at fair value. |
| (2) | TBA dollar roll income is the economic equivalent to holding and financing Agency RMBS using short-term repurchase agreements. |
| (3) | U.S. Treasury futures income is the economic equivalent to holding and financing a relevant cheapest-to-deliver U.S. Treasury note or bond using short-term repurchase agreements. |
| (4) | Certain operating expenses predominantly consists of expenses incurred in connection with the company's ongoing litigation with PRCM Advisers LLC. It also includes certain transaction expenses incurred in connection with the company's acquisition of RoundPoint Mortgage Servicing LLC. |
| (5) | EAD is a non-GAAP measure that we define as comprehensive income attributable to common stockholders, excluding realized and unrealized gains and losses on the aggregate portfolio, gains and losses on repurchases of preferred stock, provision for (reversal of) credit losses, reserve expense for representation and warranty obligations on MSR, non-cash compensation expense related to restricted common stock and certain operating expenses. As defined, EAD includes net interest income, accrual and settlement of interest on derivatives, dollar roll income on TBAs, U.S. Treasury futures income, servicing income, net of estimated amortization on MSR and certain cash related operating expenses. EAD provides supplemental information to assist investors in analyzing the company's results of operations and helps facilitate comparisons to industry peers. EAD is one of several measures our board of directors considers to determine the amount of dividends to declare on our common stock and should not be considered an indication of our taxable income or as a proxy for the amount of dividends we may declare. |
