This is a new and fresh investment opportunity and provides access to a best-in-class mortgage originator that has been built over the past 12 years. The Angel Oak platform that supports our efforts continues to produce high quality originations, and in the second quarter, we acquired $395.5 million of new loans, with steady yields even as interest rates have shifted. Finally, we were also very pleased to have completed our IPO in June, in which we raised $176.8 million of capital to fuel further growth in the coming quarters, and we thank our investors and capital markets partners for their support.”

  • Purchased $395.5 million of residential mortgage loans in the second quarter, and an additional $186.0 million through August 12, 2021
  • Purchased $500.7 million of other RMBS subsequent to the IPO to quickly deploy the IPO capital into earning assets
  • The Company did not complete any securitizations in the second quarter
  • Portfolio totaled $1.3 billion of residential mortgage loans and other target assets as of June 30, 2021

Capital Markets Activity

On June 21, 2021, the Company completed its IPO and issued 7,200,000 shares of common stock at $19.00 per share for gross proceeds of $136.8 million. Concurrent with the IPO, the Company also completed a private placement of 2,105,263 shares of common stock at $19.00 per share for gross proceeds of $40.0 million.

Non-GAAP metrics

Distributable Earnings is a non-GAAP measure and is defined as net income (loss) allocable to common stockholders as calculated in accordance with GAAP, excluding (1) unrealized gains and losses on our aggregate portfolio, and realized gains (losses) on derivatives, (2) impairment losses, (3) extinguishment of debt, (4) non-cash equity compensation expense, (5) the incentive fee earned by our Manager, (6) realized gains or losses on swap terminations and (7) certain other nonrecurring gains or losses. We believe that the presentation of Distributable Earnings provides investors with a useful measure to facilitate comparisons of financial performance between our REIT peers, but has important limitations. We believe Distributable Earnings as described above helps evaluate our financial performance without the impact of certain transactions but is of limited usefulness as an analytical tool. Therefore, Distributable Earnings should not be viewed in isolation and is not a substitute for net income computed in accordance with GAAP. Our methodology for calculating Distributable Earnings may differ from the methodologies employed by other REITs to calculate the same or similar supplemental performance measures, and as a result, our Distributable Earnings may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other REITs.
