MFA Financial, Inc. Announces Third Quarter
2024 Financial Results
NEW YORK - MFA Financial, Inc. (NYSE:MFA)
today provided its financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2024:
| • | MFA generated GAAP net income for
the third quarter of $40.0 million, or $0.38 per basic common share and $0.37 per diluted
common share. |
| • | Distributable earnings, a non-GAAP
financial measure, were $38.6 million, or $0.37 per basic common share. MFA paid a regular
cash dividend of $0.35 per common share on October 31, 2024. |
| • | GAAP book value at September 30,
2024 was $13.77 per common share. Economic book value, a non-GAAP financial measure, was
$14.46 per common share. |
| • | Total economic return was 3.3% for
the third quarter. |
| • | Net interest spread averaged 2.18%
and net interest margin was 3.00%. |
| • | MFA closed the quarter with unrestricted
cash of $305.6 million. |
“We are pleased to report strong results
for the third quarter,” stated Craig Knutson, MFA’s Chief Executive Officer. “We generated Distributable earnings of
$0.37 per share and our Economic book value rose approximately 1% to $14.46 per share from $14.34 at June 30. We purchased or originated
over $565.2 million of residential mortgage loans with an average coupon of 9.4%. We also added $294 million of Agency MBS at attractive
yields. We completed two loan securitizations during the quarter and two more subsequent to quarter-end.”
“With a 50 basis point rate cut at its
September meeting, the Federal Reserve began an easing cycle that should benefit mortgage REITs and other levered fixed income investors,”
Mr. Knutson added. “This is a welcome development after a challenging period of restrictive monetary policy and an inverted
yield curve. Although it remains to be seen how long this cycle lasts and how far the Fed ultimately cuts rates, a return to a more neutral
policy rate and the normalization of the yield curve should both serve as tailwinds for our business.”
“Finally, we were delighted to announce
in late August that Bryan Wulfsohn will serve as President of MFA and that Lori Samuels has been named Chief Loan Operations Officer.
Bryan and Lori are exceptionally talented leaders who have each been at MFA for nearly 15 years. We are proud to elevate them into new
roles,” concluded Mr. Knutson.

| (2) | Includes $305.6 million of cash
and cash equivalents, $197.3 million of restricted cash, $55.9 million of Other loans and
$16.8 million of capital contributions made to loan origination partners, as well as other
assets and other liabilities. |
| (3) | Total Debt/Net Equity ratio represents
the sum of borrowings under our financing agreements as a multiple of net equity allocated. |
| (4) | Yields reported on our interest
earning assets are calculated based on the interest income recorded and the average amortized
cost for the quarter of the respective asset. At September 30, 2024, the amortized cost
of our Securities, at fair value, was $1.1 billion. In addition, the yield for residential
whole loans was 6.73%, net of one basis point of servicing fee expense incurred during the
quarter. For GAAP reporting purposes, such expenses are included in Loan servicing and other
related operating expenses in our statement of operations. |
| (5) | Average cost of funds includes
interest on financing agreements, Convertible Senior Notes, 8.875% Senior Notes, 9.00% Senior
Notes, and securitized debt. Cost of funding also includes the impact of the net carry (the
difference between swap interest income received and swap interest expense paid) on our interest
rate swap agreements (or Swaps). While we have not elected hedge accounting treatment for
Swaps and accordingly net carry is not presented in interest expense in our consolidated
statement of operations, we believe it is appropriate to allocate net carry to the cost of
funding to reflect the economic impact of our Swaps on the funding costs shown in the table
above. For the quarter ended September 30, 2024, this decreased the overall funding
cost by 131 basis points for our overall portfolio, 131 basis points for our Residential
whole loans, 101 basis points for our Business purpose loans, 175 basis points for our Non-QM
loans, 56 basis points for our Legacy RPL/NPL loans and 171 basis points for our Securities,
at fair value. |

our residential mortgage asset portfolio for the three months ended September 30, 2024:

| (1) | Reflects annualized interest
income on Residential whole loans divided by average amortized cost of Residential whole
loans. Excludes servicing costs. |
| (2) | Reflects annualized interest
expense divided by average balance of agreements with mark-to-market collateral provisions
(repurchase agreements), agreements with non-mark-to-market collateral provisions, and securitized
debt. Cost of funding shown in the table above includes the impact of the net carry (the
difference between swap interest income received and swap interest expense paid) on our Swaps.
While we have not elected hedge accounting treatment for Swaps, and, accordingly, net carry
is not presented in interest expense in our consolidated statement of operations, we believe
it is appropriate to allocate net carry to the cost of funding to reflect the economic impact
of our Swaps on the funding costs shown in the table above. For the quarter ended September 30,
2024, this decreased the overall funding cost by 131 basis points for our Residential whole
loans, 101 basis points for our Business purpose loans, 175 basis points for our Non-QM loans,
and 56 basis points for our Legacy RPL/NPL loans. For the quarter ended June 30, 2024,
this decreased the overall funding cost by 128 basis points for our Residential whole loans,
92 basis points for our Business purpose loans, 163 basis points for our Non-QM loans, and
107 basis points for our Legacy RPL/NPL loans. For the quarter ended September 30, 2023,
this decreased the overall funding cost by 143 basis points for our Residential whole loans,
240 basis points for our Business purpose loans, 176 basis points for our Non-QM loans, and
254 basis points for our Legacy RPL/NPL loans. |

| (1) | Weighted average is calculated
based on the interest bearing principal balance of each loan within the related category.
For loans acquired with servicing rights released by the seller, interest rates included
in the calculation do not reflect loan servicing fees. For loans acquired with servicing
rights retained by the seller, interest rates included in the calculation are net of servicing
fees. |
| (2) | LTV represents the ratio of the
total unpaid principal balance of the loan to the estimated value of the collateral securing
the related loan as of the most recent date available, which may be the origination date.
Excluded from the calculation of weighted average LTV are certain low value loans secured
by vacant lots, for which the LTV ratio is not meaningful. 60+ LTV has been calculated on
a consistent basis. |
| (3) | Excludes loans for which no Fair
Isaac Corporation (“FICO”) score is available. |
| (4) | For Single-family and Multifamily
transitional loans, the LTV presented is the ratio of the maximum unpaid principal balance
of the loan, including unfunded commitments, to the estimated “after repaired”
value of the collateral securing the related loan, where available. At September 30,
2024, for certain Single-family and Multifamily Transitional loans totaling $459.2 million
and $568.3 million, respectively, an after repaired valuation was not available. For these
loans, the weighted average LTV is calculated based on the current unpaid principal balance
and the as-is value of the collateral securing the related loan. |
Table 7 - Shock Table
The information presented in the following “Shock
Table” projects the potential impact of sudden parallel changes in interest rates on the value of our portfolio, including the
impact of Swaps and securitized debt, based on the assets in our investment portfolio at September 30, 2024. Changes in portfolio
value are measured as the percentage change when comparing the projected portfolio value to the base interest rate scenario at September 30,
2024.

Reconciliation of GAAP Net Income to non-GAAP Distributable Earnings
“Distributable earnings”
is a non-GAAP financial measure of our operating performance, within the meaning of Regulation G and Item 10(e) of Regulation S-K,
as promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Distributable earnings is determined by adjusting GAAP net income/(loss) by
removing certain unrealized gains and losses, primarily on residential mortgage investments, associated debt, and hedges that are, in
each case, accounted for at fair value through earnings, certain realized gains and losses, as well as certain non-cash expenses and
securitization-related transaction costs. Realized gains and losses arising from loans sold to third-parties by Lima One shortly after
the origination of such loans are included in Distributable earnings. The transaction costs are primarily comprised of costs only incurred
at the time of execution of our securitizations and include costs such as underwriting fees, legal fees, diligence fees, bank fees and
other similar transaction related expenses. These costs are all incurred prior to or at the execution of our securitizations and do not
recur. Recurring expenses, such as servicing fees, custodial fees, trustee fees and other similar ongoing fees are not excluded from
distributable earnings. During the third quarter of 2024, the Company changed the determination of Distributable earnings to exclude
depreciation, for consistency with the reporting of similar non-cash expenses; this change has been reflected in all periods presented.
Management believes that the adjustments made to GAAP earnings result in the removal of (i) income or expenses that are not reflective
of the longer term performance of our investment portfolio, (ii) certain non-cash expenses, and (iii) expense items required
to be recognized solely due to the election of the fair value option on certain related residential mortgage assets and associated liabilities.
Distributable earnings is one of the factors that our Board of Directors considers when evaluating distributions to our shareholders.
Accordingly, we believe that the adjustments to compute Distributable earnings specified below provide investors and analysts with additional
information to evaluate our financial results.
Distributable earnings should
be used in conjunction with results presented in accordance with GAAP. Distributable earnings does not represent and should not be considered
as a substitute for net income or cash flows from operating activities, each as determined in accordance with GAAP, and our calculation
of this measure may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
The following table provides
a reconciliation of our GAAP net income/(loss) used in the calculation of basic EPS to our non-GAAP Distributable earnings for the quarterly
periods below:

Reconciliation of GAAP Book Value per Common Share to non-GAAP
Economic Book Value per Common Share
“Economic book value”
is a non-GAAP financial measure of our financial position. To calculate our Economic book value, our portfolios of Residential whole
loans and securitized debt held at carrying value are adjusted to their fair value, rather than the carrying value that is required to
be reported under the GAAP accounting model applied to these financial instruments. These adjustments are also reflected in the table
below in our end of period stockholders’ equity. Management considers that Economic book value provides investors with a useful
supplemental measure to evaluate our financial position as it reflects the impact of fair value changes for all of our investment activities,
irrespective of the accounting model applied for GAAP reporting purposes. Economic book value does not represent and should not be considered
as a substitute for Stockholders’ Equity, as determined in accordance with GAAP, and our calculation of this measure may not be
comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

and other assets, as well as changes in the value of MFA’s liabilities accounted for at fair value through earnings; the effectiveness
of hedging transactions; changes in the prepayment rates on residential mortgage assets, an increase of which could result in a reduction
of the yield on certain investments in its portfolio and could require MFA to reinvest the proceeds received by it as a result of such
prepayments in investments with lower coupons, while a decrease in which could result in an increase in the interest rate duration of
certain investments in MFA’s portfolio making their valuation more sensitive to changes in interest rates and could result in lower
forecasted cash flows; credit risks underlying MFA’s assets, including changes in the default rates and management’s assumptions
regarding default rates and loss severities on the mortgage loans in MFA’s residential whole loan portfolio; MFA’s ability
to borrow to finance its assets and the terms, including the cost, maturity and other terms, of any such borrowings; implementation of
or changes in government regulations or programs affecting MFA’s business; MFA’s estimates regarding taxable income, the
actual amount of which is dependent on a number of factors, including, but not limited to, changes in the amount of interest income and
financing costs, the method elected by MFA to accrete the market discount on residential whole loans and the extent of prepayments, realized
losses and changes in the composition of MFA’s residential whole loan portfolios that may occur during the applicable tax period,
including gain or loss on any MBS disposals or whole loan modifications, foreclosures and liquidations; the timing and amount of distributions
to stockholders, which are declared and paid at the discretion of MFA’s Board of Directors and will depend on, among other things,
MFA’s taxable income, its financial results and overall financial condition and liquidity, maintenance of its REIT qualification
and such other factors as MFA’s Board of Directors deems relevant; MFA’s ability to maintain its qualification as a REIT
for federal income tax purposes; MFA’s ability to maintain its exemption from registration under the Investment Company Act of
1940, as amended (or the “Investment Company Act”), including statements regarding the concept release issued by the Securities
and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) relating to interpretive issues under the Investment Company Act with respect to the status
under the Investment Company Act of certain companies that are engaged in the business of acquiring mortgages and mortgage-related interests;
MFA’s ability to continue growing its residential whole loan portfolio, which is dependent on, among other things, the supply of
loans offered for sale in the market; targeted or expected returns on our investments in recently-originated mortgage loans, the performance
of which is, similar to our other mortgage loan investments, subject to, among other things, differences in prepayment risk, credit risk
and financing costs associated with such investments; risks associated with the ongoing operation of Lima One Holdings, LLC (including,
without limitation, industry competition, unanticipated expenditures relating to or liabilities arising from its operation (including,
among other things, a failure to realize management’s assumptions regarding expected growth in business purpose loan (BPL) origination
volumes and credit risks underlying BPLs, including changes in the default rates and management’s assumptions regarding default
rates and loss severities on the BPLs originated by Lima One)); expected returns on MFA’s investments in nonperforming residential
whole loans (“NPLs”), which are affected by, among other things, the length of time required to foreclose upon, sell, liquidate
or otherwise reach a resolution of the property underlying the NPL, home price values, amounts advanced to carry the asset (e.g., taxes,
insurance, maintenance expenses, etc. on the underlying property) and the amount ultimately realized upon resolution of the asset;
risks associated with our investments in MSR-related assets, including servicing, regulatory and economic risks; risks associated with
our investments in loan originators; risks associated with investing in real estate assets generally, including changes in business conditions
and the general economy; and other risks, uncertainties and factors, including those described in the annual, quarterly and current reports
that we file with the SEC. These forward-looking statements are based on beliefs, assumptions and expectations of MFA’s future
performance, taking into account information currently available. Readers and listeners are cautioned not to place undue reliance on
these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date on which they are made. New risks and uncertainties arise over time
and it is not possible to predict those events or how they may affect MFA. Except as required by law, MFA is not obligated to, and does

23 Reconciliation of GAAP net income to non - GAAP Distributable earnings “Distributable earnings” is a non - GAAP financial measure of our operating performance, within the meaning of Regulation G and Item 10 (e) of Regulation S - K, as promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission . Distributable earnings is determined by adjusting GAAP net income/(loss) by removing certain unrealized gains and losses, primarily on residential mortgage investments, associated debt, and hedges that are, in each case, accounted for at fair value through earnings, certain realized gains and losses, as well as certain non - cash expenses and securitization - related transaction costs . Realized gains and losses arising from loans sold to third - parties by Lima One shortly after the origination of such loans are included in Distributable earnings . The transaction costs are primarily comprised of costs only incurred at the time of execution of our securitizations and include costs such as underwriting fees, legal fees, diligence fees, bank fees and other similar transaction related expenses . These costs are all incurred prior to or at the execution of our securitizations and do not recur . Recurring expenses, such as servicing fees, custodial fees, trustee fees and other similar ongoing fees are not excluded from distributable earnings . During the third quarter of 2024 , we changed the determination of Distributable earnings to exclude depreciation, for consistency with the reporting of similar non - cash expenses ; this change has been reflected in all periods presented . Management believes that the adjustments made to GAAP earnings result in the removal of ( i ) income or expenses that are not reflective of the longer term performance of our investment portfolio, (ii) certain non - cash expenses, and (iii) expense items required to be recognized solely due to the election of the fair value option on certain related residential mortgage assets and associated liabilities . Distributable earnings is one of the factors that our Board of Directors considers when evaluating distributions to our shareholders . Accordingly, we believe that the adjustments to compute Distributable earnings specified below provide investors and analysts with additional information to evaluate our financial results . The following table provides a reconciliation of GAAP net (loss)/income used in the calculation of basic EPS to our non - GAAP Distributable earnings for the quarterly periods presented .

24 Reconciliation of GAAP Book Value to Economic Book Value “Economic book value” is a non - GAAP financial measure of our financial position . To calculate our Economic book value, our portfolios of Residential whole loans and securitized debt held at carrying value are adjusted to their fair value, rather than the carrying value that is required to be reported under the GAAP accounting model applied to these financial instruments . These adjustments are also reflected in the table below in our end of period stockholders’ equity . Management considers that Economic book value provides investors with a useful supplemental measure to evaluate our financial position as it reflects the impact of fair value changes for all of our investment activities, irrespective of the accounting model applied for GAAP reporting purposes . Economic book value does not represent and should not be considered as a substitute for Stockholders’ Equity, as determined in accordance with GAAP, and our calculation of this measure may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies . The following table provides a reconciliation of GAAP book value per common share to our non - GAAP Economic book value per common share as of the end of each quarter since Q 3 2023 . 9/30 /2 3 12/31 /2 3 3/31/24 6/30/24 9/30/24 ($ i n millions, except per share amounts) $ 1,848.5 $ 1,899.9 $ 1,884.2 $ 1,883.2 $ 1,880.5 GAAP Total Stockholders’ Equity (475.0) (475.0) (475.0) (475.0) (475.0) Preferred Stock, liquidation preference $ 1,373.5 $ 1,424.9 $ 1,409.2 $ 1,408.2 $ 1,405.5 GAAP Stockholders’ Equity for book value per common share Adjustments: (85.3) (35.6) (35.4) (26.8) 6.7 Fair value adjustment to Residential whole loans, at carrying value 122.5 95.6 88.4 82.3 64.3 Fair value adjustment to Securitized debt, at carrying value $ 1,410.7 $ 1,484.9 $ 1,462.2 $ 1,463.7 $ 1,476.5 Stockholders’ Equity including fair value adjustments to Residential whole loans and Securitized debt held at carrying value (Economic book value ) $ 13.48 $ 13.98 $ 13.80 $ 13.80 $ 13.77 GAAP book value per common share $ 13.84 $ 14.57 $ 14.32 $ 14.34 $ 14.46 Economic book value per common share 101.9 101.9 102.1 102.1 102.1 Number of shares of common stock outstanding
