Management Commentary

Commenting on the fourth quarter and full year results, Robert E. Cauley, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, said, “Orchid Island Capital generated another quarter of strong returns for stockholders. For the fourth quarter, Orchid generated a 4.0% return based on a $0.02 per share increase in book value and $0.195 per share of dividends. This marks the third consecutive quarter of positive returns since the market turbulence of the first quarter – a product of the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on the economy and financial markets. Orchid’s strategy of focusing exclusively on Agency RMBS assets since inception with no credit exposure of any kind in any of our assets enabled Orchid to avoid the pitfalls so many around us suffered, in many cases leading to severe financial distress that many have yet to fully recover from. Managing our portfolio was never more challenging than what we experienced last March. Our asset selection acumen and disciplined investment style were put to the test, as was our liquidity management skills. During such periods, relationships with our credit counterparties and their confidence in us were critical. These relationships have been developed over nearly two decades and continue to pay dividends, especially in times of severe market stress like 2020. Since our difficulties last March were very temporary, we were able to quickly recover and capitalize on the many opportunities available in the market place over the balance of the year. In fact, in spite of the market disruptions of the first quarter, Orchid generated a positive 2.7% return for stockholders for the year based on a $0.63 per share decline in Orchid’s share price since December 31, 2019, offset entirely by $0.79 per share of dividends.

“During the fourth quarter of 2020 we focused on maximizing returns on the portfolio by reducing the income draining effects of prepayments on our premium RMBS. We shifted the portfolio into lower coupon securities and in some cases shorter maturity securities as well. Our prepayment rate in the fourth quarter was 16.7 CPR, a 2.4 CPR increase over the third quarter of 2020. During the fourth quarter, the spread between mortgage rates available to borrowers and rates on an interpolated par priced mortgage backed security, or the primary/secondary spread, continued to compress and rates available to borrowers were the lowest ever experienced. As a result, we were quite happy with the prepayment performance of the portfolio. We were also able to enhance our returns for the fourth quarter by taking advantage of the TBA dollar roll market. With the Federal Reserve continuing their asset purchases at a rate of $40 billion of Agency RMBS per month, concentrated in production coupons, we continued to modestly expand our use of the very attractive financing offered by the TBA dollar roll market. Coupled with continued low financing in the traditional repo markets and our low prepayment rates, we were able to continue to generate attractive net interest margins for our stockholders in support of the dividend. During the fourth quarter, we were also able to raise approximately $36.1 million of additional capital from our at-the-market program at attractive prices relative to our book value while also accretive to earnings.”

Details of Fourth Quarter 2020 Results of Operations

The Company reported net income of $16.5 million for the three month period ended December 31, 2020, compared with net income of $18.6 million for the three month period ended December 31, 2019. The portfolio remains concentrated in specified, fixed rate pools with favorable prepayment characteristics and, to a lesser extent, lower coupon TBAs. With very high refinancing incentives to borrowers as the primary/secondary interest rate spread continued to compress, the Company sold higher coupon fixed rate securities in favor of lower coupon fixed rate bonds and/or shorter maturity securities, again with lower coupons. Secondly, the Company increased its Agency RMBS portfolio over the course of the fourth quarter through capital raised through the at-the-market program. Interest income on the portfolio of specified pools was down slightly from the third quarter of 2020. The yield on our average MBS declined from 3.18% in the third quarter to 2.85% for the fourth quarter, repurchase agreement borrowing costs declined from 0.25% for the third quarter to 0.23% for the fourth quarter, and our net interest spread declined from 2.93% to 2.62% in the fourth quarter. The decline in net interest income from the MBS portfolio was offset by gains on long TBA positions of approximately $5.5 million.

Book value increased by $0.02 per share as net income of $0.23 per share exceeded the dividend distribution of $0.195 per share, offset by the slightly dilutive effect of shares sold under the Company’s at-the-market program of approximately $0.01 per share. The proceeds of the shares issued were deployed into our Agency RMBS portfolio, which benefited from tightening asset spreads and attractive returns available in the market. As a result, the new capital was accretive to earnings. The Company recorded net realized and unrealized losses of $0.07 per share on Agency RMBS assets and derivative instruments, including net interest expense on interest rate swaps. As interest rates increased over the course of the fourth quarter, mark to market gains on our hedging instruments were offset by mark to market losses on our Agency RMBS assets. Absent mark to market losses related to premium lost from paydowns, the RMBS portfolio would have had a slightly positive mark to market gain as spreads on Agency RMBS tightened during the quarter. Expenses of $2.80 million in the fourth quarter decreased slightly from $2.85 million in the third quarter.

Details of Full Year 2020 Results of Operations

Orchid generated net income per share of $0.03 during 2020. The severe market dislocations in the first quarter required the Company to sell assets and unwind hedge positions to maintain adequate liquidity. The Company recorded $79.1 million of losses on derivative instruments and $25.0 million of realized losses on our Agency RMBS securities for the year, the overwhelming majority of which occurred in the first quarter. The Company was able to maintain adequate liquidity to survive the turmoil and was well positioned to benefit from the recovery in asset prices that occurred once the Federal Reserve intervened to stabilize the market. The Company’s book value increased from $4.65 per share on March 31, 2020 to $5.46 per share on December 31, 2020 as spreads on our portfolio of specified Agency RMBS and lower coupon TBA securities tightened. The Company’s stock price recovered as well, and we were able to raise additional capital at very modest discounts to book value and deploy the proceeds with very attractive investment opportunities and tightening asset spreads, and thus accretive to earnings. Our average RMBS holdings declined slightly in 2020 from 2019 and with available yields in the market declining as interest rates fell to all-time low levels, our yield on average MBS declined from 4.14% in 2019 to 3.45% for 2020. However, because our average cost of funding declined from 2.53% in 2019 to 0.78% for 2020, our net interest spread increased from 1.61% in 2019 to 2.67% for 2020. For the year we recorded $25.8 million of unrealized gains on Agency RMBS assets. The Company has also increased its use of TBA securities as they offer more attractive funding than the repurchase agreement funding we use for specified pools and do not require us to post collateral to our repo counterparties as a result of prepayments every month. The Company has transitioned our hedge positions away from a concentration in interest rate swaps to a more balanced blend of swaps and option based instruments, such as swaptions and/or swaption strategies involving long/short positions. The active management of these strategies enhances our liquidity management while also providing better protection for adverse rate movements. General and administrative expenses, inclusive of our management fee, increased slightly from $10.39 million in 2019 to $10.54 million in 2020.

Prepayments

For the quarter ended December 31, 2020, Orchid received $139.4 million in scheduled and unscheduled principal repayments and prepayments, which equated to a 3-month constant prepayment rate (“CPR”) of approximately 20.1%. Prepayment rates on the two RMBS sub-portfolios were as follows (in CPR):

Effective duration is the approximate percentage change in price for a 100 bps change in rates. An effective duration of 2.360 indicates that an interest rate increase of 1.0% would be expected to cause a 2.360% decrease in the value of the RMBS in the Company’s investment portfolio at December 31, 2020. An effective duration of 2.780 indicates that an interest rate increase of 1.0% would be expected to cause a 2.780% decrease in the value of the RMBS in the Company’s investment portfolio at December 31, 2019. These figures include the structured securities in the portfolio, but do not include the effect of the Company’s funding cost hedges. Effective duration quotes for individual investments are obtained from The Yield Book, Inc.

 

Financing, Leverage and Liquidity

As of December 31, 2020, the Company had outstanding repurchase obligations of approximately $3,595.6 million with a net weighted average borrowing rate of 0.23%. These agreements were collateralized by RMBS with a fair value, including accrued interest, of approximately $3,729.5 million and cash pledged to counterparties of approximately $58.8 million. The Company’s leverage ratio at December 31, 2020 was 8.8 to 1. At December 31, 2020, the Company’s liquidity was approximately $227.1 million, consisting of unpledged RMBS and unrestricted cash and cash equivalents. To enhance our liquidity even further, we may pledge more of our structured RMBS as part of a repurchase agreement funding, but retain the 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 our outstanding borrowings under repurchase obligations at December 31, 2020.

Hedging

In connection with its interest rate risk management strategy, the Company economically hedges a portion of the cost of its repurchase agreement funding against a rise in interest rates by entering into derivative financial instrument contracts. The Company has not elected hedging treatment under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) in order to align the accounting treatment of its derivative and other hedging instruments with the treatment of its portfolio assets under the fair value option election. As such, all gains or losses on these instruments are reflected in earnings for all periods presented. At December 31, 2020, such instruments were comprised of U.S. Treasury note (“T-Note”) and Eurodollar futures contracts, interest rate swap agreements, interest rate swaption agreements and “to-be-announced” (“TBA”) securities transactions.

The table below presents information related to the Company’s Eurodollar and T-Note futures contracts at December 31, 2020.
