Management Commentary

Commenting on the third quarter results, Robert E. Cauley, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, said, “The third quarter of 2023 did not play out as market participants expected. As the Federal Reserve (the “Fed”) and central banks across the globe have continued with their tightening campaigns, the economy in the U.S. has remained remarkably resilient. In fact, the advanced reading on gross domestic product (“GDP”) for the third quarter of 2023, released on October 26 was 4.9%. Conversely the inflation data has trended down towards the Fed’s 2% target at a stubbornly slow pace. While there are clear signs that the tightening conducted by the Fed since its campaign began in March of 2022 has slowed the economy, they are not pervasive and signs of strength in economic growth remain. Interest rate movements during the third quarter of 2023 were driven by two significant developments. At the end of July Fitch Ratings downgraded the credit rating of the United States and Moody’s Investor Services announced the credit rating of the U.S. was under review for a potential down-grade later in the quarter. Shortly thereafter, the U.S. Treasury announced a revision to its debt issuance levels for the balance of the third quarter of 2023. The revision amounted to an approximate 35% increase compared to previous estimates. Fitch and Moody’s cited the rapidly expanding deficits as the primary cause of the downgrades but also cited the continued government dysfunction owing to rampant partisanship, which may impair the government's ability to effectively manage deficits going forward. From mid-July through late October, the yield on the 10-year U.S. Treasury note increased by over 100 basis points. A second development during the quarter occurred at the Fed’s September Federal Open Market Committee ("FOMC") meeting when the Fed released its “dot” plot, a summary of FOMC members' anticipated level of the Fed Funds rate for the next several years. The dot plot released reflected a funds rate 50 basis points higher at the end of 2024 than the last dot plot issued at the conclusion of the FOMC meeting in June 2023. The increase reflected expectations for a minimal reduction in the funds rate prior to the end of 2024. On July 3, 2023, the spread between the 2-year U.S. Treasury note and the 10-year U.S. Treasury note reached a peak for the current cycle at -108.04 basis points. At the end of the third quarter, the inversion was only -47.35 basis points and approached -12.0 in late October. These developments in the rates market had a meaningful impact on the Agency MBS market, especially the Fed meeting in September. As risk sentiment across markets collapsed and volatility across the equity and rates markets increased market participants largely remained on the sidelines as the events unfolded and most asset classes performed very poorly. This was the case with the Agency MBS market as well. Spreads on Agency MBS to comparable duration U.S. Treasuries or swaps increased markedly, and in the case of the current coupon 30-year conventional security with a coupon of approximately 6.5%, the spread to the 5-year U.S. Treasury increased by approximately 30 basis points from September 15, 2023, through October 3, 2023. This spread peaked at just over 186 basis points on October 3, 2023. By comparison, the same spread was 143.4 basis points in mid-June of 2023.

“Orchid Island Capital ("Orchid") reported a third quarter 2023 net loss of $80.1 million, and its shareholders equity decreased from $490.1 million to $466.8 million. The difficult conditions described above led to Orchid reporting mark to market losses on its MBS assets of $208.9 million, exceeding mark to market gains of $142.0 million on derivative hedge instruments. Orchid raised additional equity capital of approximately $80.4 million during the third quarter of 2023. Bimini 's advisory services revenue for the quarter was approximately $3.6 million, a 9.0% increase over the comparable quarter in 2022, reflecting Orchid's increased equity. Orchid is also obligated to reimburse us for direct expenses paid on its behalf and to pay to us Orchid’s pro rata share of overhead as defined in the management agreement.

“With respect to the MBS portfolio at Royal Palm, we added to the MBS portfolio during the third quarter of 2023, increasing the market value from $63.8 million at June 30, 2023 to $84.9 million at September 30, 2023. While the portfolio was increased during the quarter, and the combination of portfolio interest and dividend income from our shares of Orchid Island increased 53% over the comparable quarter of 2022, interest expense on our repurchase obligations continues to rise and increased significantly from $210 thousand for the third quarter of 2022 to $831 thousand for the third quarter of 2023. Net interest and dividend income for the quarter of $281 thousand was down from $518 thousand for the same quarter of 2022.

“Mark to market gains and losses on our MBS portfolio, hedge positions and shares of Orchid netted to a net loss of $2.36 million, and we recorded a net loss for the quarter of $419 thousand versus a loss of $3.2 million for the third quarter of 2022. Market conditions continue to be even more volatile so far in the fourth quarter and we may not be able to continue to build our MBS portfolio in order to retain ample cash balances.”

Details of Third Quarter 2023 Results of Operations

The Company reported a net loss of $0.4 million for the three-month period ended September 30, 2023. Advisory service revenue for the quarter was $3.6 million. We recorded interest and dividend income of $1.1 million and interest expense on repurchase agreements of $0.8 million and on long-term debt of $0.6 million. We recorded an unrealized $1.1 million mark to market loss on our shares of Orchid common stock and unrealized mark to market losses of $2.5 million on our MBS portfolio. These losses were partially offset by mark to market gains of $1.2 million on our derivative hedge positions. The results for the quarter also included operating expenses of $2.1 million and an income tax provision of $(0.8) million.

Effective duration is the approximate percentage change in price for a 100 basis point change in rates. An effective duration of 3.981 indicates that an interest rate increase of 1.0% would be expected to cause a 3.981% decrease in the value of the MBS in the Company’s investment portfolio at September 30, 2023. An effective duration of 4.323 indicates that an interest rate increase of 1.0% would be expected to cause a 4.323% decrease in the value of the MBS in the Company’s investment portfolio at December 31, 2022. These figures include the structured securities in the portfolio but not the effect of the Company’s hedges. Effective duration quotes for individual investments are obtained from The Yield Book, Inc.

Financing and Liquidity

As of September 30, 2023, the Company had outstanding repurchase obligations of approximately $81.4 million with a net weighted average borrowing rate of 5.50%. These agreements were collateralized by MBS with a fair value, including accrued interest, of approximately $85.1 million. At September 30, 2023, the Company’s liquidity was approximately $4.0 million, consisting of unpledged MBS and cash and cash equivalents.

We may pledge more of our structured MBS as part of a repurchase agreement funding but retain cash in lieu of acquiring additional assets. In this way, we can, at a modest cost, retain higher levels of cash on hand and decrease the likelihood we will have to sell assets in a distressed market in order to raise cash. Below is a list of outstanding borrowings under repurchase obligations at September 30, 2023.
