Discussion of Second Quarter Results

The Company's total economic loss of $(0.31) per common share for the second quarter of 2024 consisted of a decline in book value of $(0.70) per common share offset by dividends declared of $0.39 per common share. The decline in book value is primarily related to the widening of Agency RMBS spreads to U.S. Treasuries during the second quarter. Though the 10-year U.S. Treasury rate increased during the second quarter of 2024, the impact on the Company's investments was largely offset by gains on the Company's interest rate hedges. Book value was also impacted by $124.7 million of equity raised during the second quarter. The following table summarizes the changes in the Company's financial position during the second quarter of 2024:

($s in thousands except per share data)	Net Changes in Fair Value	Components of Comprehensive Income	Common Book Value Rollforward	Per Common Share (1)
Balance as of March 31, 2024 (1)	$	847,032	$	13.20
Net interest income	$	1,287
Operating expenses	(7,243)
Preferred stock dividends	(1,923)
Changes in fair value:
MBS and loans	$	(45,269)
TBAs	(22,985)
U.S. Treasury futures	64,210
Interest rate swaps	(90)
Total net change in fair value	(4,134)
Comprehensive loss to common shareholders	(12,013)
Capital transactions:
Net proceeds from stock issuance (2)	125,568
Common dividends declared	(26,824)
Balance as of June 30, 2024 (1)	$	933,763	$	12.50

(1)Amounts represent total shareholders' equity less the aggregate liquidation preference of the Company's preferred stock of $111,500.

(2)Net proceeds from common stock issuances includes $124.7 million from ATM issuances and one public offering, and $0.9 million from amortization of share-based compensation, net of grants.

During the second quarter of 2024, the Company added $551.1 million in specified pools of Agency RMBS with coupons of 5.5% or higher, which is expected to drive net interest income higher in the coming months, especially if coupled with a reduction in the Federal Funds rate set by the Federal Reserve. The following table provides detail on the Company's MBS investments, including TBA securities as of June 30, 2024:

(1)Average balance for assets is calculated as a simple average of the daily amortized cost and excludes securities pending settlement if applicable.

(2)Average balance for liabilities is calculated as a simple average of the daily borrowings outstanding during the period.

(3)Effective yield is calculated by dividing interest income by the average balance of asset type outstanding during the reporting period. Unscheduled adjustments to premium/discount amortization/accretion, such as for prepayment compensation, are not annualized in this calculation.

(4)Cost of funds is calculated by dividing annualized interest expense by the total average balance of borrowings outstanding during the period with an assumption of 360 days in a year.

(5)CMBS IO ("Interest only") includes Agency and non-Agency issued securities.

Hedging Portfolio

The Company uses derivative instruments to hedge exposure to interest rate risk arising from its investment and financing portfolio, and some of these derivatives are designated as hedges for tax purposes. As of June 30, 2024, the Company held short positions in 10-year U.S. Treasury futures with a notional amount of $4.6 billion, short positions in 30-year U.S. Treasury futures with a notional amount of $825.0 million, and interest rate swaps with a notional amount of $10.0 million.

Realized gains and losses on interest rate hedges are recognized in GAAP net income in the same reporting period in which the derivative instrument matures or is terminated by the Company, but are not included in the Company's earnings available for distribution ("EAD"), a non-GAAP measure, during any reporting period. On a tax basis, realized gains and losses on derivative instruments designated as hedges for tax purposes are amortized into the Company's REIT taxable income over the original periods hedged by those derivatives. The benefit expected to be recognized in taxable income is estimated to be $25.5 million, or $0.38 per average common share outstanding, for the second quarter of 2024. The Company's remaining estimated net deferred tax hedge gains from its interest rate hedging portfolio was $848.8 million as of June 30, 2024. These hedge gains will be part of the Company's

6

future distribution requirements along with net interest income and other ordinary gains and losses in future periods.

The table below provides the projected amortization of the Company's net deferred tax hedge gains that may be recognized as taxable income over the periods indicated given conditions known as of June 30, 2024; however, uncertainty inherent in the forward interest rate curve makes future realized gains and losses difficult to estimate, and as such, these projections are subject to change for any given period.

Projected Period of Recognition for Remaining Hedge Gains, Net	June 30, 2024
($ in thousands)
Third quarter 2024	$	26,687
Fourth quarter 2024	26,784
Fiscal year 2025	107,939
Fiscal year 2026 and thereafter	687,428

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In evaluating the Company's financial and operating performance, management considers book value per common share, total economic return to common shareholders, and other operating results presented in accordance with GAAP as well as certain non-GAAP financial measures, which include EAD to common shareholders (including per common share) and adjusted net interest income/expense. Management believes these non-GAAP financial measures may be useful to investors because they are viewed by management as a measure of the investment portfolio's return based on the effective yield of its investments, net of financing costs and, with respect to EAD, net of other normal recurring operating income and expenses. Drop income generated by TBA dollar roll positions, which is included in "gain (loss) on derivatives instruments, net" on the Company's consolidated statements of comprehensive income, is included in these non-GAAP financial measures because management views drop income as the economic equivalent of net interest income (interest income less implied financing cost) on the underlying Agency security from trade date to settlement date. Management also includes periodic interest benefit/cost from its interest rate swaps, which are also included in "gain (loss) on derivatives instruments, net", in adjusted net interest income/expense because interest rate swaps are used by the Company to economically hedge the impact of changing interest rates on its borrowing costs from repurchase agreements, and including periodic interest benefit/cost from interest rate swaps is a helpful indicator of the Company's total cost of financing in addition to GAAP interest expense. However, these non-GAAP financial measures are not a substitute for GAAP earnings and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other REITs because they may not be calculated in the same manner. Furthermore, though EAD is one of several factors management considers in determining the appropriate level of distributions to common shareholders, it should not be utilized in isolation, and it is not an

7

accurate indication of the Company's REIT taxable income nor its distribution requirements in accordance with the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

Reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures used in this earnings release to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are presented below.
