Management's Remarks

"We are very pleased to have generated a total economic return of 4.9% and increased core net operating income despite the somewhat volatile interest rate environment during the quarter," commented Mr. Byron L. Boston, President and Chief Executive Officer. "Prepayment speeds on our RMBS have increased quarter over quarter, negatively impacting effective yield, but the impact has been partially mitigated by higher yields on our CMBS and CMBS IO portfolios. Importantly, our net interest spread and adjusted net interest spread both increased for the first time since the end of 2017. Our net interest spread and adjusted net interest spread benefited from the decline in short-term interest rates following reductions in the targeted Federal Funds Rate, and the repositioning of hedges during the third quarter."

Mr. Boston added, "We continue to believe the most probable macroeconomic outcome is that structural issues within the global economy will keep the 10-year U.S.Treasury bond within a range of 1.5%-2.5%. We remain focused on managing for the long term and have structured the portfolio for flexibility in this environment."

Third Quarter 2019 Earnings Summary

Comprehensive income to common shareholders for the third quarter of 2019 of $15.3 million consisted of a net loss to common shareholders of $(39.9) million and other comprehensive income of $55.2 million compared to comprehensive loss to common shareholders for the second quarter of 2019 of $(11.1) million, which consisted of a net loss to common shareholders of $(122.2) million and other comprehensive income of $111.1 million. Comprehensive income to common shareholders improved versus the prior quarter as realized and unrealized gains from changes in fair value of MBS outpaced the net loss on derivatives by $9.1 million for the third quarter of 2019 compared to a net loss on derivatives exceeding the increase in fair value of MBS by $(16.8) million during the second quarter of 2019.

Net loss to common shareholders improved for the third quarter of 2019 compared to the second quarter of 2019 as a result of:

  • an increase in net interest income of $0.3 million due to an increase in the average balance of interest-earning assets financed at lower rates
  • a lower net loss on derivative instruments of $(50.7) million for the third quarter versus $(117.5) million in the prior quarter
  • a net gain on sale of investments of $4.6 million versus a net loss of $(10.4) million in the prior quarter
  • a decrease of $0.5 million in general and administrative expenses

Core net operating income to common shareholders, a non-GAAP measure, increased to $11.5 million, or $0.48 per common share, for the third quarter of 2019 versus $10.6 million, or $0.43 per common share, for the second quarter of 2019 due to:

  • the increase in net interest income and the decrease in general and administrative expenses noted above
  • an increase of $0.4 million in net periodic interest benefit as a result of a 20 basis point increase in net receive rate on interest rate swaps

Please refer to "Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures" below for additional important information about non-GAAP measures.

Book Value Per Common Share

Book value per common share increased $0.39 to $18.07 at September 30, 2019 from $17.68 at June 30, 2019, of which $0.24 was due to common stock repurchases of $25.0 million while the remaining $0.15 was due to the increase in fair value of the Company's MBS, net of the decline in fair value of derivative instruments. This increase of $0.39 per common share and the third quarter dividend of $0.48 per common share resulted in a quarterly total economic return on book value per common share of 4.9%.

Investments and Financing Details

The average balance of interest earning assets increased during the third quarter of 2019 due to our increased investment in Agency CMBS. The Company's investment portfolio including net TBA dollar roll positions declined 15% to $5.2 billion at September 30, 2019 compared to $6.1 billion at June 30, 2019 due primarily to sales of higher coupon fixed rate Agency RMBS in the second half of the quarter at a realized gain of $3.9 million. These higher coupon assets were sold because of their increased risk of prepayment in the current lower interest rate environment and were partially replaced by purchases of lower coupon fixed rate Agency RMBS. Prepayment speeds on Agency RMBS averaged 13.6% for the third quarter of 2019 versus 9.4% last quarter, reflecting the overall lower interest rate environment. Higher prepayment amortization on Agency RMBS was mostly offset by higher prepayment compensation on Agency CMBS and CMBS IO. The Company also sold the remainder of its portfolio of adjustable rate Agency RMBS, realizing a gain of $0.6 million.

The following table provides details on the performance of our investments and financing including interest rate hedges for the periods indicated:

CMBS IO includes Agency and non-Agency securities.

(2)

Interest-bearing liabilities consist primarily of repurchase agreement borrowings.

(3)

The impact of TBA drop income on adjusted net interest spread includes the implied average funding cost of TBA dollar roll transactions during the periods indicated. TBA drop income for the three months ended September 30, 2019 includes $0.5 million generated from net short TBA dollar roll positions which increased adjusted net interest spread by 3 basis points, offsetting a (3) basis point decline from net long TBA dollar roll positions.

(4)

Amount represents net periodic interest benefit of effective interest rate swaps outstanding during the period and excludes realized and unrealized gains and losses from changes in fair value of derivatives.

(5)

Represents a non-GAAP measure.

The Company's net interest spread and adjusted net interest spread increased 6 basis points and 11 basis points, respectively, for the third quarter of 2019 compared to the second quarter of 2019 as the decline of 20 basis points in financing costs outpaced the 14 basis point decline in effective yield on the investment portfolio. The effective yield on the investment portfolio declined to 3.29% primarily due to faster prepayment speeds on fixed-rate Agency RMBS as noted above, which was partially offset by increased yields on CMBS. Financing costs for the third quarter declined primarily due to the Federal Reserve's recent reduction in the U.S. Federal Funds Rate by an additional 25 basis points. Adjusted net interest spread increased an additional 4 basis points from the prior quarter due to the net impact of the Company's net TBA dollar roll positions. During the third quarter, the Company entered into net short TBA dollar roll positions to economically hedge the impact of changing interest rates on the fair value of its specified and non-specified pools of Agency RMBS as well as financing costs. The remaining one basis point increase in adjusted net interest spread resulted from the increase in net periodic interest benefit from interest rate swaps as a percentage of repurchase agreement borrowings outstanding during the third quarter.

Hedging Summary

The Company actively managed its hedge position during the quarter, terminating interest rate swaps with a notional balance of $2.2 billion at a realized loss of $(63.8) million and adding interest rate swaps with a notional balance of $2.6 billion. These adjustments had the impact of lowering the hedging portfolio's average pay-fixed rate by 50 basis points to 1.83% for the three months ended September 30, 2019. The following table provides information related to the Company's average borrowings outstanding and interest rate swaps effective for the periods indicated:

Company Description

Dynex Capital, Inc. is an internally managed real estate investment trust, or REIT, which invests in mortgage assets on a leveraged basis. The Company invests in Agency and non-Agency RMBS, CMBS, and CMBS IO. Additional information about Dynex Capital, Inc. is available at www.dynexcapital.com.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to the Company's operating results presented in accordance with GAAP, this release includes certain non-GAAP financial measures including core net operating income to common shareholders (including per common share), adjusted interest expense, adjusted net interest income and the related metrics adjusted cost of funds and adjusted net interest spread. Because these measures are used in the Company's internal analysis of financial and operating performance, management believes that they provide greater transparency to our investors of management's view of our economic performance. Management also believes the presentation of these measures, when analyzed in conjunction with the Company's GAAP operating results, allows investors to more effectively evaluate and compare the performance of the Company to that of its peers, although the Company's presentation of its non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to other similarly-titled measures of other companies. Schedules reconciling core net operating income to common shareholders, adjusted interest expense, and adjusted net interest income to GAAP financial measures are provided as a supplement to this release.

Management views core net operating income to common shareholders as an estimate of the Company's financial performance excluding changes in fair value of its investments and derivatives. In addition to the non-GAAP reconciliation set forth in the supplement to this release, which derives core net operating income to common shareholders from GAAP net income to common shareholders as the nearest GAAP equivalent measure, core net operating income to common shareholders can also be determined by adjusting net interest income to include interest rate swap periodic interest benefit (cost), drop income on TBA dollar roll transactions, general and administrative expenses, and preferred dividends. 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 core net operating income and in adjusted net interest income 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 expense, and in adjusted net interest income 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 measures do not provide a full perspective on our results of operations, and therefore, their usefulness is limited. For example, these non-GAAP measures do not include gains or losses from available-for-sale investments, changes in fair value of and costs of terminating interest rate swaps, as well as realized and unrealized gains or losses from any instrument used by management to economically hedge the impact of changing interest rates on its portfolio and book value per common share, such as Eurodollar futures. As a result, these non-GAAP measures should be considered as a supplement to, and not as a substitute for, the Company's GAAP results as reported on its consolidated statements of comprehensive income.
