BETHESDA, Md., Oct. 28, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- American Capital Agency Corp. ("AGNC" or the "Company") (Nasdaq: AGNC) today reported comprehensive income for the third quarter of 2013 of $179 million, or $0.45 per common share, and net book value of $25.27 per common share. Economic return for the period, defined as dividends on common shares plus the change in net book value per common share, was a gain of $0.56 per common share, 2.2% for the quarter, or 8.7% on an annualized basis.
THIRD QUARTER 2013 FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS
OTHER THIRD QUARTER HIGHLIGHTS
Commenting on the third quarter, Gary Kain, President and Chief Investment Officer, said, "During the third quarter, we continued to see substantial volatility in both interest rates and mortgage spreads. Consistent with what we said during our last earnings call in late July, we remained disciplined in our approach to risk management and prioritized book value preservation over short term earnings. To this point, we continued to migrate the portfolio into shorter maturity securities, lowered leverage somewhat, and maintained relatively high hedge ratios. Given the changes we have made to our portfolio and the significant reduction in risk positions across the entire fixed-income landscape, we have gradually been increasing our duration gap and begun to transition in the direction of a more normal balance between risk and return. That said, we remain acutely aware of the idiosyncratic risk associated with the markets today given the fixation on the actions of both the Federal Reserve and fiscal debate in Washington."
Malon Wilkus, Chair and Chief Executive Officer, commented, "Given AGNC's stock price relative to estimated book value at various times during the third quarter, we repurchased 11.9 million shares of our common stock at approximately a 13% discount to our net book value per common share as of June 30, 2013. Furthermore, during the third quarter, the Board of Directors increased the existing share repurchase authorization from $500 million to $1 billion and extended the date of the authorization through to December 31, 2014. As a management team, we remain committed to share repurchases, when conditions are appropriate, as a means of enhancing book value for our fellow shareholders."
NET BOOK VALUE
As of September 30, 2013, the Company's net book value per common share was $25.27, or $(0.24) lower than the June 30, 2013 net book value per common share of $25.51.
INVESTMENT PORTFOLIO
As of September 30, 2013, the Company's investment portfolio totaled $77.8 billion of agency securities, including $(7.3) billion of net short TBA mortgage positions, at fair value.
The Company accounts for TBA dollar roll positions as derivative instruments and recognizes dollar roll income/loss in other income (loss), net on the Company's financial statements. As of September 30, 2013, the Company's net TBA mortgage portfolio had a fair value and cost basis of approximately $(7.3) billion and $(7.1) billion, respectively, and a net carrying value of $(196) million reported in derivative assets/(liabilities) on the Company's balance sheet.
As of September 30, 2013, the Company's investment portfolio was comprised of $75.1 billion of fixed-rate securities, inclusive of the net short TBA position; $1.0 billion of adjustable-rate securities; and $1.7 billion of collateralized mortgage obligations ("CMOs"), including principal and interest-only strips.
As of September 30, 2013, the Company's fixed-rate mortgage assets were comprised of $42.1 billion less than or equal to 15-year securities, $1.4 billion 20-year fixed-rate securities, $38.8 billion 30-year fixed-rate securities, $(2.0) billion less than or equal to 15-year net short TBA securities and $(5.2) billion 30-year net short TBA securities, at fair value. As of September 30, 2013, less than or equal to 15-year fixed rate securities, inclusive of the net TBA position, represented 52% of the Company's investment portfolio, an increase from 42% as of June 30, 2013, and 30-year fixed rate securities, inclusive of the net TBA position, represented 43% of the Company's investment portfolio, a decrease from 56% as of June 30, 2013.
As of September 30, 2013, the Company's fixed-rate mortgage assets, inclusive of the net TBA position, had a weighted average coupon of 3.52%, comprised of a weighted average coupon of 3.22% for less than or equal to 15-year fixed rate securities, 3.50% for 20-year fixed-rate securities and 3.88% for 30-year fixed-rate securities.
As of September 30, 2013, 65% of the Company's fixed-rate securities, excluding the net TBA position, were comprised of securities backed by lower loan balance mortgages and loans originated under the U.S. Government sponsored Home Affordable Refinance Program ("HARP"), which typically have a lower risk of prepayment in a low or declining interest rate environment relative to generic agency securities. The Company defines lower loan balance securities as pools backed by original loan balances of up to $150,000 and HARP securities as pools backed by 100% refinance loans with original loan-to-values of ≥ 80%. As of September 30, 2013, the weighted average "pay-up" measured across the Company's fixed-rate mortgage asset portfolio was approximately 0.16% over the corresponding generic TBA price.
CONSTANT PREPAYMENT RATES
The actual CPR for the Company's investment portfolio during the third quarter was 10%, slightly lower than the prior quarter of 11%. The most recent CPR published in October 2013 for the Company's portfolio held as of September 30, 2013 was 8%. The weighted average projected CPR for the remaining life of all of the Company's agency securities held as of September 30, 2013 was 8%, an increase from 7% as of June 30, 2013. The Company's net TBA dollar roll position is not included in the CPR calculations above.
The Company amortizes or accretes premiums and discounts associated with purchases of agency securities into interest income using the effective yield method over the estimated life of such securities, incorporating both actual repayments to date and projected CPRs over the remaining life of the security. The weighted average cost basis of the Company's investment portfolio was 104.6% of par value as of September 30, 2013; therefore, faster actual or projected prepayments can have a meaningful negative impact, while slower actual or projected prepayments can have a meaningful positive impact, on the Company's asset yields.
Net premium amortization on the Company's investment portfolio for the third quarter was $(168) million, or $(0.43) per common share, compared to $(98) million, or $(0.25) per common share, for the second quarter. The change in the Company's weighted average projected CPR estimate resulted in recognition of approximately $(12) million, or $(0.03) per common share, of "catch-up" premium amortization cost during the third quarter, compared to approximately $55 million, or $0.14 per common share, of "catch-up" premium amortization benefit during the second quarter. The unamortized net premium balance as of September 30, 2013 was $3.8 billion.
ASSET YIELDS, COST OF FUNDS AND NET INTEREST RATE SPREAD
The Company's average asset yield on its agency security portfolio for the third quarter was 2.59%, compared to 2.92% for the second quarter. Excluding the impact of "catch-up" premium amortization cost/benefit recognized during the current and prior quarter due to changes in projected CPR estimates, the annualized weighted average yield on the Company's agency security portfolio was 2.64% for the current quarter, compared to 2.63% for the prior quarter. The Company's average asset yield reported as of September 30, 2013 was 2.70%, largely unchanged from 2.71% as of June 30, 2013.
The Company's average cost of funds (derived from the cost of repurchase agreements, other debt and interest rate swaps) for the third quarter decreased 4 bps to 1.39% from 1.43% for the second quarter. The Company's average cost of funds as of September 30, 2013 decreased 14 bps to 1.33% from 1.47% as of June 30, 2013. The decline in cost of funds was primarily due to lower average swap costs associated with a smaller hedge portfolio.
The Company's average net interest rate spread for the third quarter was 1.20%, a decrease of 29 bps from the second quarter of 1.49%. Including estimated TBA dollar roll income/loss, the Company's average net interest rate spread for the third quarter was 1.14%, a decrease of 72 bps from 1.86% during the second quarter. The Company's average net spread income for the third quarter includes -6 bps of "catch-up" premium amortization cost due to changes in projected CPR estimates, compared to 29 bps of "catch-up" premium amortization benefit during the second quarter. As of September 30, 2013, the Company's average net interest rate spread was 1.37%, compared to 1.24%, as of June 30, 2013.
LEVERAGE
As of September 30, 2013, $78.4 billion of the Company's repurchase agreements were used to fund acquisitions of agency securities ("agency repo"), while the remainder, or $4.1 billion, was used to fund purchases of U.S. Treasury securities and is not included in the Company's leverage measurements. The Company's leverage ratio as of September 30, 2013 was 7.9x. Inclusive of the net TBA position, the Company's "at risk" leverage ratio as of September 30, 2013 was 7.2x. The Company's average leverage ratio and average "at risk" leverage ratio for the third quarter was 7.8x.
As of September 30, 2013, the Company's agency repo agreements had a weighted average interest rate of 0.44%, largely unchanged from 0.45% as of June 30, 2013. As of September 30, 2013, the Company's agency repo agreements had remaining maturities consisting of:
As of September 30, 2013, the Company's agency repo agreements had a weighted average remaining days to maturity of 112 days, compared to 119 days as of June 30, 2013.
HEDGING ACTIVITIES
As of September 30, 2013, 91% of the Company's outstanding balance of repurchase agreements, other debt and net TBA position was hedged through interest rate swaps, swaptions and net Treasury positions, compared to 101% as of June 30, 2013.
The Company's interest rate swap positions as of September 30, 2013 totaled $50.2 billion in notional amount and had an average fixed pay rate of 1.65%, a weighted average receive rate of 0.24% and a weighted average maturity of 5.2 years. During the quarter, the Company terminated $6.3 billion of swaps and entered into new swap agreements totaling $0.9 billion. The new swap agreements entered into during the quarter have an average maturity of approximately 10 years and a weighted average fixed pay rate of 2.95%. The Company enters into swaps with longer maturities with the intention of protecting its net book value and longer term earnings potential against the impact of rising interest rates.
The Company utilizes interest rate swaptions to mitigate exposure to larger, more rapid increases in interest rates. During the quarter, the Company added $9.5 billion in notional amount of payer swaptions at a cost of $233 million, while $13.0 billion of payer swaptions from previous quarters expired or were terminated resulting in net realized gains of $277 million. As of September 30, 2013, the Company had $20.2 billion of notional value in payer swaptions outstanding at a market value of $374 million and a cost basis of $425 million, with an average option term of 1.0 year and an average underlying interest rate swap term of 7.0 years.
The Company also utilizes long and short positions in U.S. Treasury securities and U.S. Treasury futures to mitigate exposure to increases in interest rates. As of September 30, 2013, the Company had a net long position of $3.0 billion (market value) in U.S. Treasury securities and short position of $2.2 billion (market value) in U.S. Treasury futures.
OTHER INCOME (LOSS), NET
During the third quarter, the Company recorded a net loss of $(1.1) billion in other income (loss), net, or $(2.74) per common share, compared to a net gain of $1.5 billion, or $3.69 per common share for the prior quarter. Other income (loss), net for the third quarter was comprised of:
OTHER COMPREHENSIVE INCOME (LOSS)
During the third quarter, the Company recorded other comprehensive income of $0.9 billion, or $2.25 per common share, primarily due to the reclassification of unrealized losses from accumulated OCI to realized losses on sales of agency securities, net during the quarter as the Company repositioned its investment portfolio.
ESTIMATED TAXABLE INCOME
Estimated taxable income for the third quarter was $0.29 per common share, or $2.09 higher than GAAP net loss per common share.
The primary differences between tax and GAAP net income are (i) unrealized gains and losses associated with interest rate swaps and other derivatives and securities marked-to-market in current income for GAAP purposes, but excluded from taxable income until realized or settled, (ii) temporary differences related to the amortization of premiums paid on investments and (iii) timing differences in the recognition of certain realized gains and losses.
The Company's estimated taxable income for the third quarter excludes $(2.17) of estimated net capital losses, which are not deductible from the Company's ordinary taxable income, and $0.57 of estimated net deferred ordinary gains from terminated or expired swaptions.
THIRD QUARTER 2013 DIVIDEND DECLARATIONS
On September 19, 2013, the Board of Directors of the Company declared a third quarter dividend on its common stock of $0.80 per share, compared to $1.05 per share declared in the prior quarter, which was paid on October 28, 2013 to common stockholders of record as of September 30, 2013. Since its May 2008 initial public offering, the Company has paid a total of $4.0 billion in common dividends, or $26.96 per common share.
On September 19, 2013, the Board of Directors of the Company declared a third quarter dividend on its 8.000% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock ("Series A Preferred Stock") of $0.50 per share. The dividend was paid on October 15, 2013 to preferred stockholders of record as of October 1, 2013.
As of September 30, 2013, the Company had approximately $219 million of estimated undistributed taxable income ("UTI"), or $0.57 per common share, net of dividends declared. UTI excludes the Company's non-deductible net capital losses and net deferred gains from terminated or expired swaptions. As of September 30, 2013, the Company had estimated cumulative non-deductible net capital losses of $(849) million, or $(2.21) per common share, which may be carried forward and applied against future net capital gains for up to five years, and the Company had estimated net deferred gains from terminated or expired swaptions of $222 million, or $0.58 per common share, which will be amortized into future ordinary taxable income over the remaining terms of the underlying swaps.
STOCK REPURCHASE PROGRAM
During the third quarter, the Company made open market purchases of approximately 11.9 million shares of its common stock, or 3% of the Company's outstanding shares as of June 30, 2013. The shares were purchased at an average price of $22.16 per share, including expenses, totaling approximately $263 million. Since commencing a stock repurchase program in the fourth quarter of 2012, the Company has purchased approximately 14.8 million shares of its common stock for total consideration of approximately $347 million, including expenses.
The Company also announced that its Board of Directors has increased the Company's existing stock repurchase authorization from $500 million to up to $1 billion of its outstanding shares of common stock and extended it through December 31, 2014. The Company intends to only repurchase shares when the repurchase price is less than its estimate of the current net book value per common share.

FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
This press release contains forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are based on estimates, projections, beliefs and assumptions of management of the Company at the time of such statements and are not guarantees of future performance. Forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties in predicting future results and conditions. Actual results could differ materially from those projected in these forward-looking statements due to a variety of important factors, including, without limitation, changes in interest rates, changes in the yield curve, changes in prepayment rates, the availability and terms of financing, changes in the market value of the Company's assets, general economic conditions, market conditions, conditions in the market for agency securities, and legislative and regulatory changes that could adversely affect the business of the Company. Certain factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements, are included in the Company's periodic reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). Copies are available on the SEC's website, www.sec.gov. The Company disclaims any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements based on the occurrence of future events, the receipt or new information, or otherwise.
USE OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL INFORMATION
In addition to the results presented in accordance with GAAP, this release includes certain non-GAAP financial information, including net spread income, estimated taxable income and certain financial metrics derived from non-GAAP information, such as estimated undistributed taxable income, which the Company's management uses in its internal analysis of results, and believes may be informative to investors.
Net spread income consists of adjusted net interest income, less total operating expenses. Adjusted net interest income is interest income less interest expense (or "GAAP net interest income"), less other periodic interest rate swap interest costs reported in other income (loss), net.
Estimated taxable income is pre-tax income calculated in accordance with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code rather than GAAP. Estimated taxable income differs from GAAP income because of both temporary and permanent differences in income and expense recognition. Examples include (i) unrealized gains and losses associated with interest rate swaps and other derivatives and securities marked-to-market in current income for GAAP purposes, but excluded from estimated taxable income until realized or settled, (ii) temporary differences related to the amortization of premiums paid on investments and (iii) timing differences in the recognition of certain realized gains and losses. Furthermore, estimated taxable income can include certain information that is subject to potential adjustments up to the time of filing of the appropriate tax returns, which occurs after the end of the calendar year of the Company.
The Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide information useful to investors because net spread income is a financial metric used by management and investors and estimated taxable income is directly related to the amount of dividends the Company is required to distribute in order to maintain its REIT tax qualification status. The Company also believes that providing investors with net spread income, estimated taxable income and certain financial metrics derived based on such estimated taxable income, in addition to the related GAAP measures, gives investors greater transparency to the information used by management in its financial and operational decision-making. However, because net spread income and estimated taxable income are an incomplete measure of the Company's financial performance and involve differences from net income computed in accordance with GAAP, net spread income and estimated taxable income should be considered as supplementary to, and not as a substitute for, the Company's net income computed in accordance with GAAP as a measure of the Company's financial performance. In addition, because not all companies use identical calculations, the Company's presentation of net spread income and estimated taxable income may not be comparable to other similarly-titled measures of other companies.
