OLD GREENWICH, Conn.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Ellington Financial Inc. (NYSE:EFC) (the “Company”) today reported financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2019.
Highlights
Third Quarter 2019 Results
“Ellington Financial had another strong quarter, led by our proprietary loan businesses, most notably non-QM loans, small-balance commercial mortgage loans, and residential transition mortgage loans,” said Laurence Penn, Chief Executive Officer and President. “We deployed the capital from our July common equity raise opportunistically, without interrupting the growth of our net income or Core Earnings, both of which increased sequentially. Excluding the modest dilution from the equity raise, our annualized economic return for the quarter was right around 11%, keeping us on pace with our strong performance during the first half of the year.
“Our common equity raise in July was well timed, as it provided us with dry powder to capitalize on some great buying opportunities that emerged from the market volatility in August, in addition to providing capital for our ongoing high-yielding loan pipelines.
“In October, after we had fully deployed the capital from our July common equity raise, we raised additional capital through our inaugural preferred equity raise, which earned an investment-grade rating and saw strong participation from both institutional and retail investors. We were pleased with the execution and believe that it rightly reflected Ellington Financial’s long track record of book value stability, disciplined and dynamic hedging, effective risk management, and prudent leverage. The preferred equity raise further diversified our funding sources, and we expect that it will be highly accretive to earnings, as it should enable us to continue to capitalize on the attractive investment opportunities that we are seeing across our diversified portfolio, with projected returns on equity well in excess of our preferred dividend rate.
“For the remainder of the year, we are focused on continuing to grow and diversify our portfolio, including through deployment of the capital that we just raised in our preferred equity offering, so as to continue to generate a consistent earnings stream for shareholders. As always, disciplined hedging and liquidity management will be essential in protecting and preserving book value should we encounter significant year-end-related volatility.”
Financial Results
The size of both the Company’s credit and Agency portfolios increased during the quarter as it deployed the proceeds from its follow-on equity offering, which closed in July. The Company’s total long credit portfolio3 increased by 13.9%, to $1.218 billion as of September 30, 2019, from $1.069 billion as of June 30, 2019. Most of the growth of the Company’s credit portfolio occurred in the non-QM and residential transition loan portfolios. The Company’s total long Agency RMBS portfolio increased by 16.9%, to $1.565 billion as of September 30, 2019, from $1.339 billion as of June 30, 2019.
The Company’s debt-to-equity ratio was 4.0:1 as of both September 30, 2019 and June 30, 2019. Although the Company added financing during the quarter to accommodate its larger credit and Agency portfolios, its equity also increased over the course of the quarter as a result of the follow-on equity offering, and the debt-to-equity ratio was essentially unchanged. The Company’s recourse debt-to-equity ratio increased slightly over the course of the quarter, to 2.9:12 from 2.8:12.
During the third quarter, the Company’s credit strategy generated total gross income of $18.6 million, or $0.55 per share, and its Agency strategy generated total gross income of $4.1 million, or $0.12 per share.
Strong net interest income from the Company’s credit portfolio continued to be the primary driver of earnings during the third quarter. The Company’s credit strategy generated net interest income4 of $19.8 million, net realized and unrealized gains on the long investment portfolio of $0.9 million, net realized and unrealized losses on interest rate hedges of $(0.5) million, net realized and unrealized losses of $(1.0) million on credit hedges and other activities, and other investment related expenses of $3.3 million. The Company also had $2.8 million in earnings from investments in unconsolidated entities.
The Company’s best-performing credit strategies for the quarter included non-QM loans, residential transition mortgage loans, small-balance commercial mortgage loans, non-Agency RMBS, secondary CLOs, CMBS, and investments in mortgage originators. Investments in retained tranches in Ellington-sponsored CLOs underperformed during the quarter.
The Company also benefited from strong performance in its Agency portfolio during the quarter. The Agency strategy generated net interest income5 of $1.4 million, and net realized and unrealized gains of $11.2 million, as interest rates declined and pay-ups on the Company’s specified pools increased. Pay-ups are price premiums for specified pools relative to their TBA counterparts. Similar to previous quarters, the decline in mortgage rates and associated increase in actual and projected prepayments drove the expansion of pay-ups. Average pay-ups on the Company’s specified pools increased to 1.43% as of September 30, 2019, from 1.37% as of June 30, 2019. Finally, declining interest rates generated net losses on interest rate hedges of $(8.5) million, which offset a portion of the gains in the Agency portfolio.
