Key Market Highlights 4 STRONG QUARTER FOR MBS PERFORMANCE AS INFLATION FEARS MODERATE • Interest rate expectations have leveled off; market anticipates Fed Funds Rate of approximately 5% in mid-2023 • Mortgage spreads remain volatile; in Q4-2022 nominal spreads tightened 30 basis points • Option-adjusted spreads (OAS) are less compelling having tightened to long-term averages as volatility remains high • Expect rate volatility to moderate in 2023, which could result in tighter spreads and a positive tailwind to book value I.

Portfolio Yields and Financing Costs 8 • Portfolio yield increased 31 bps to 4.92% primarily due to sales of lower coupon available-for-sale securities (AFS) with high unamortized premium, purchases of higher coupon AFS with lower unamortized premium, lower CPR experienced on AFS and higher proportion of total portfolio amortized cost invested in higher yielding assets • Net spread narrowed by 80 bps due to higher rates on financing ($ thousands) Q4-2022 Q3-2022 Portfolio Asset Type Average Amortized Cost Income(1) Average Yield Average Amortized Cost Income(1) Average Yield Available-for-sale securities $ 8,118,269 $ 83,712 4.12% $ 9,323,193 $ 88,472 3.80% Mortgage servicing rights(2) 1,921,462 53,222 11.08% 1,925,372 51,159 10.63% Agency derivatives(3) 21,463 74 1.38 % 26,096 153 2.35 % TBAs(4) 4,066,675 36,852 3.62 % 5,762,726 56,776 3.94 % Total portfolio $ 14,127,869 $ 173,860 4.92 % $ 17,037,387 $ 196,560 4.61 % Financing Collateral Type Average Outstanding Balance Expense(5) Average Cost Average Outstanding Balance Expense(5) Average Cost Available-for-sale securities $ 7,664,204 $ 68,627 3.58% $ 8,951,012 $ 51,769 2.31% Mortgage servicing rights and advances 1,917,069 36,938 7.71 % 1,718,842 26,579 6.19 % Agency derivatives(3) 14,618 155 4.24 % 21,601 125 2.31 % Other - unsecured(6) 282,363 4,892 6.93 % 281,961 4,877 6.92 % Interest rate swaps(7) — — % (178) — % U.S. Treasury futures(8) 6,408 0.18 % 16,643 0.40 % TBAs(4) 4,066,675 20,659 2.03 % 5,762,726 18,944 1.31 % Total financing $ 13,944,929 $ 137,679 3.95 % $ 16,736,142 $ 118,759 2.84 % Net Spread 0.97 % 1.77 %

EAD provides supplemental information to assist investors in analyzing the Company’s results of operations and helps facilitate comparisons to industry peers. EAD is one of several measures our board of directors considers to determine the amount of dividends to declare on our common stock and should not be considered an indication of our taxable income or as a proxy for the amount of dividends we may declare.

As defined, Income Excluding Market-Driven Value Changes includes the realization of portfolio cash flows which incorporates actual prepayments, changes in portfolio accrued interest, servicing income and servicing expenses, and price changes. Price changes are measured daily based on the assumption that spreads, interest rates and volatility factored into the previous day ending fair value are unchanged. This applies to RMBS, MSR and derivatives, as applicable, and is net of all recurring operating expenses and provision for income taxes associated with Income Excluding Market-Driven Value Changes. Income Excluding Market-Driven Value Changes provides supplemental information to assist investors in analyzing the company’s results of operations and helps facilitate comparisons to industry peers. Income Excluding Market-Driven Value Changes is one of several measures the company’s board of directors considers to determine the amount of dividends to declare on the company’s common stock and should not be considered an indication of taxable income or as a proxy for the amount of dividends the company may declare.

End Notes (continued) 29 PAGE 7 - Earnings Available for Distribution 1. MSR amortization refers to the portion of change in fair value of MSR primarily attributed to the realization of expected cash flows (runoff) of the portfolio, which is deemed a non-GAAP measure due to the company’s decision to account for MSR at fair value. 2. TBA dollar roll income is the economic equivalent to holding and financing Agency RMBS using short-term repurchase agreements. 3. U.S. Treasury futures income is the economic equivalent to holding and financing a relevant cheapest-to-deliver U.S. Treasury note or bond using short-term repurchase agreements. 4. Earnings Available for Distribution, or EAD, is a non-GAAP measure. Please see Appendix slide 20 for a definition of Earnings Available for Distribution and a reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial information. 5. Agency fixed-rate RMBS use the GAAP concept of amortized cost and yield-to-maturity determined at time of purchase. Net servicing income and MSR amortization is based on original pricing yield and does not include the benefit of increased float income and lower compensating interest. Financing costs are largely variable and short-term, responding more quickly to rising rates than our longer term assets. U.S. Treasury futures income represents the sum of the implied net cash and expected change in price of a financed U.S. Treasury security, but excludes unexpected price change. PAGE 8 - Portfolio Yields and Financing Costs 1. Includes interest income, net of premium amortization/discount accretion, on available-for-sale securities and Agency Derivatives, servicing income, net of estimated amortization and servicing expenses, on MSR, and the implied asset yield portion of dollar roll income on TBAs. Amortization on MSR refers to the portion of change in fair value of MSR primarily attributed to the realization of expected cash flows (runoff) of the portfolio, which is deemed a non-GAAP measure due to the company’s decision to account for MSR at fair value. TBA dollar roll income is the non-GAAP economic equivalent to holding and financing Agency RMBS using short-term repurchase agreements. 2. Amortized cost on MSR for a given period equals the net present value of the remaining future cash flows (obtained by applying original prepayment assumptions to the actual unpaid principal balance at the start of the period) using a discount rate equal to the original pricing yield. Original pricing yield is the discount rate which makes the net present value of the cash flows projected at purchase equal to the purchase price. MSR amortized cost is deemed a non-GAAP measure due to the company’s decision to account for MSR at fair value. 3. Represents inverse interest-only Agency RMBS which are accounted for as derivative instruments in accordance with GAAP. 4. Both the implied asset yield and implied financing benefit/cost of dollar roll income on TBAs are calculated using the average cost basis of TBAs as the denominator. TBA dollar roll income is the non-GAAP economic equivalent to holding and financing Agency RMBS using short-term repurchase agreements. TBAs are accounted for as derivative instruments in accordance with GAAP. 5. Includes interest expense and amortization of deferred debt issuance costs on borrowings under repurchase agreements (excluding those collateralized by U.S. Treasuries), revolving credit facilities, term notes payable and convertible senior notes, interest spread income/expense and amortization of upfront payments made or received upon entering into interest rate swap agreements, and the implied financing benefit/cost portion of dollar roll income on TBAs. TBA dollar roll income is the non-GAAP economic equivalent to holding and financing Agency RMBS using short-term repurchase agreements. PAGE 9 - Strong Balance Sheet and Liquidity Position 1. Source: Bloomberg. Represents the average spread between repurchase rates and the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) over trailing 3-month and 6- month periods between Q1 2019 and Q4 2022 (as of December 31, 2022). 2. Balance of 5-year MSR term notes excludes deferred debt issuance costs.

Net TBA position represents the bond equivalent value of the company’s TBA position. Bond equivalent value is defined as notional amount multiplied by market price. Accounted for as derivative instruments in accordance with GAAP. 5. Includes 428,549 Series A, 786,846 Series B and 1,742,555 Series C preferred shares. PAGE 11 - Specified Pools 1.

Prospective quarterly static return estimate per basic common share reflects portfolio performance expectations given current market conditions and represents the comprehensive income attributable to common stockholders (net of dividends on preferred stock). PAGE 15 - Effective Coupon Positioning 1. Represents UMBS TBA market prices as of December 30, 2022. 2. Specified pools include securities with implicit or explicit prepayment protection including lower loan balances (securities collateralized by loans less than or equal to $200K of initial principal balance), higher LTVs (securities collateralized by loans with greater than or equal to 80% LTV), certain geographic concentrations, loans secured by investor-owned properties, and lower FICO scores, as well as securities without such protection, including large bank- serviced and others. 3. MSR/Agency IO represents an internally calculated exposure of a synthetic TBA position and the current coupon equivalents of our MSR, including the effect of unsettled MSR, and Agency IO RMBS. PAGE 16 - Risk Positioning 1. MSR/Agency IO RMBS includes the effect of unsettled MSR. 2. Other includes all other derivative assets and liabilities and borrowings. Other excludes TBAs, which are included in the Agency P&I RMBS/TBA category. 3. Bull Steepener/Bear Flattener is a shift in short-term rates that represents estimated change in common book value for theoretical non-parallel shifts in the yield curve. Analysis uses a +/- 25 basis point shift in 2-year rates while holding long-term rates constant. 4. Bull Flattener/Bear Steepener is a shift in long-term rates that represents estimated change in common book value for theoretical non-parallel shifts in the yield curve. Analysis uses a +/- 25 basis point shift in 10-year rates while holding short-term rates constant. 5. Parallel shift represents estimated change in common book value for theoretical parallel shift in interest rates. 6. Book value exposure to current coupon represents estimated change in common book value for theoretical parallel shifts in spreads. PAGE 17 - Financial Performance 1. Economic return on book value is defined as the increase (decrease) in book value per common share from the beginning to the end of the given period, plus dividends declared in the period, divided by the book value as of the beginning of the period. 2. Historical dividends may not be indicative of future dividend distributions. The company ultimately distributes dividends based on its taxable income per common share, not GAAP earnings. The annualized dividend yield on the company’s common stock is calculated based on the closing price of the last trading day of the relevant quarter.

End Notes (continued) 32 PAGE 18 - Q4-2022 Operating Performance 1. Earnings Available for Distribution, or EAD, is a non-GAAP measure. Please see Appendix slide 20 for a definition of Earnings Available for Distribution and a reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial information. PAGE 19 - Q3-2022 Operating Performance 1. Earnings Available for Distribution, or EAD, is a non-GAAP measure. Please see Appendix slide 20 for a definition of Earnings Available for Distribution and a reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial information. PAGE 20 - GAAP to EAD Reconciliation 1. MSR amortization refers to the portion of change in fair value of MSR primarily attributed to the realization of expected cash flows (runoff) of the portfolio, which is deemed a non-GAAP measure due to the company’s decision to account for MSR at fair value. 2. TBA dollar roll income is the economic equivalent to holding and financing Agency RMBS using short-term repurchase agreements. 3. U.S. Treasury futures income is the economic equivalent to holding and financing a relevant cheapest-to-deliver U.S. Treasury note or bond using short- term repurchase agreements. PAGE 21 - GAAP to Income Excluding Market-Driven Value Changes Reconciliation 1. RMBS market-driven value changes refers to the sum of interest income, realized and unrealized gains and losses on RMBS, less the sum of the realization of RMBS cash flows which incorporates actual prepayments, changes in RMBS accrued interest, and price changes. Price changes are measured daily based on the assumption that spreads, interest rates and volatility factored into the previous day ending fair value are unchanged. RMBS includes inverse interest-only Agency RMBS which are accounted for as derivative instruments in accordance with GAAP. 2. MSR market-driven value changes refers to the sum of servicing income, servicing expenses, realized and unrealized gains and losses on MSR, less the sum of the realization of MSR cash flows which incorporates actual prepayments, servicing income and servicing expenses, and price changes. Price changes are measured daily based on the assumption that spreads, interest rates and volatility factored into the previous day ending fair value are unchanged. 3. TBA dollar roll income is the economic equivalent to holding and financing Agency RMBS using short-term repurchase agreements. 4. Futures income is the economic equivalent to holding and financing a relevant cheapest-to-deliver note or bond using short-term repurchase agreements.

End Notes (continued) 33 PAGE 22 - Agency RMBS Portfolio 1. Weighted average actual 1 month CPR released at the beginning of the following month based on RMBS held as of the preceding month-end. 2. Determination of the percentage of prepay protected 30-year fixed Agency RMBS includes securities with implicit or explicit prepayment protection including lower loan balances (securities collateralized by loans less than or equal to $200K of initial principal balance), higher LTVs (securities collateralized by loans with greater than or equal to 80% LTV), certain geographic concentrations, loans secured by investor-owned properties, and lower FICO scores. 3. Other P&I includes 15-year fixed, Hybrid ARMs, CMO and DUS pools. 4. IOs and IIOs represent market value of $15.2 million of Agency Derivatives and $36.1 million of IOs. 5. Bond equivalent value is defined as the notional amount multiplied by market price. Accounted for as derivative instruments in accordance with GAAP. 6. Three month prepayment speeds of delivered TBA contracts; average of J.P. Morgan, Credit Suisse, and Citi data. PAGE 23 - Mortgage Servicing Rights Portfolio 1. MSR portfolio excludes residential mortgage loans for which the company is the named servicing administrator. Portfolio metrics, other than fair value and UPB, represent averages weighted by UPB. 2. FICO represents a mortgage industry accepted credit score of a borrower. PAGE 25 - Financing 1. Outstanding borrowings have a weighted average of 20.9 months to maturity. 2. Repurchase agreements and revolving credit facilities secured by MSR and/or other assets may be over-collateralized due to operational considerations. 3. U.S. Treasury securities effectively borrowed under reverse repurchase agreements. PAGE 26 - Futures 1. Exchange-traded derivative instruments (futures and options on futures) require the posting of an “initial margin” amount determined by the clearing exchange, which is generally intended to be set at a level sufficient to protect the exchange from the derivative instrument’s maximum estimated single- day price movement. The company also exchanges “variation margin” based upon daily changes in fair value, as measured by the exchange. The exchange of variation margin is considered a settlement of the derivative instrument, as opposed to pledged collateral. Accordingly, the receipt or payment of variation margin is accounted for as a direct reduction to the carrying value of the exchange-traded derivative asset or liability.
