Discussion of Fourth Quarter Results
The Company's total economic return of $1.45 per common share for the fourth quarter of 2023 consisted of an increase in book value of $1.06 per common share and dividends declared of $0.39 per common share. The Company's investment portfolio benefited from spread tightening across all of its Agency MBS. The increase in book value was primarily the result of higher prices on Agency MBS relative to U.S. Treasury futures, which resulted in net gains of $381.6 million on the Company's investment portfolio outpacing net losses of $(287.0) million on its interest rate hedges.
The following table summarizes the changes in the Company's financial position during the fourth quarter of 2023:

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. |

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 December 31, 2023, the Company held short positions in 10-year U.S. Treasury futures with a notional amount of $4.2 billion and short positions in 30-year U.S. Treasury futures with a notional amount of $0.7 billion.
Comprehensive income included realized gains of $40.4 million from interest rate hedges for the fourth quarter of 2023 and $237.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. 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 $23.7 million, or $0.42 per average common share outstanding, for the fourth quarter of 2023 and $80.5 million, or $1.47 per average common share outstanding, for the year ended December 31, 2023. The Company's remaining estimated net deferred tax hedge gains from its interest rate hedging portfolio was $861.8 million as of December 31, 2023. These hedge gains will be part of the Company's 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 December 31, 2023; 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.

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 the following: EAD to common shareholders, adjusted net interest income and the related metric adjusted net interest spread. 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.
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 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.
