Angel Oak Mortgage, Inc. Reports Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2022 Financial Results

Angel Oak Mortgage, Inc. (NYSE: AOMR) (the “Company,” “we,” and “our”), a leading real estate finance company focused on acquiring and investing in first lien non-QM loans and other mortgage-related assets in the U.S. mortgage market, today reported financial results for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2022.

Please note that the Company’s name will change to Angel Oak Mortgage REIT, Inc., effective on or about March 10, 2023. The Company’s website, CUSIP, and New York Stock Exchange ticker symbol will remain unchanged. Additionally, we would like to announce the resignation of Dory Black as the Company’s Secretary and the appointment of David Gordon to the same role, effective March 8, 2023.

Fourth Quarter Highlights

  • Q4 2022 GAAP net loss of $8.8 million, or $(0.36) per diluted share of common stock.
  • Q4 2022 distributable earnings of $(61.5) million, or $(2.50) per diluted share of common stock.
  • Declared dividend of $0.32 per share of common stock, payable on March 31, 2023, to common stockholders of record as of March 22, 2023.

Full Year 2022 Highlights

  • Total GAAP net loss of $187.8 million, or $(7.65) per diluted share of common stock, for the full year ended December 31, 2022.
  • Distributable Earnings of $19.4 million, or $0.78 per diluted share of common stock, for the full year ended December 31, 2022.
  • GAAP book value of $9.49 per share of common stock as of December 31, 2022.
  • Economic book value of $13.11 per share of common stock as of December 31, 2022.

Since the end of Q3 2022, the Company has reduced its whole loan warehouse debt by 51 % and its mark to market percentage of total warehouse debt1 by 62% while releasing additional cash. These accomplishments have protected our capital structure to withstand volatility and will allow us to focus on growing the earning potential of its portfolio while continuing to prioritize sound risk and liquidity management.

Sreeni Prabhu, Chief Executive Officer and President of the Company, commented, “While 2022 was characterized by surging global inflation, extreme interest rate volatility, and wider credit spreads across various asset classes, we were able to gain positive momentum in the fourth quarter that has carried into 2023. We continue to make significant progress against our strategic plan to reposition our portfolio, improve liquidity, and reduce risk, all of which were demonstrated through the loan sales and non-mark to market financing conversion announced in Q4, as well as the AOMT 2023-1 securitization in January 2023. We plan to resume purchases of newly originated, higher-coupon loans and to methodically execute securitizations throughout 2023. I’m proud of our team and thank them for their hard work and contributions as we seek to build long term value for our shareholders.”

1 Mark-to-market percentage of total warehouse debt is calculated as the total unpaid balance of mark-to-market warehouse financing divided by the total unpaid balance of all warehouse financing.

Fourth Quarter Portfolio and Investment Activity

  • In November 2022, the Company sold certain non-QM and investor cash flow residential mortgage loans with a gross weighted average coupon of approximately 4.5%, and a cost basis of approximately $315.6 million and a prior month carrying value of $267.6 million. The purchase price for the mortgage loans was $252.7 million, and $221.2 million of warehouse debt was repaid as a result of the transaction.
  • Sold $7.0 million in commercial loans in order to concentrate on the core non-QM strategy of AOMR.
  • Subsequent to year end, in January 2023, the Company participated in AOMT 2023-1, an approximately $580.5 million scheduled principal balance securitization backed by a pool of residential mortgage loans. The Company contributed loans with a scheduled principal balance of $241.3 million. In addition to releasing capital, the Company retained its pro rata share of the rated bonds from the securitization.

Full Year Portfolio and Investment Activity

  • Purchased approximately $995.2 million of residential mortgage loans in 2022.
  • In 2022, the Company completed two residential non-QM securitizations, totaling $722.3 million in aggregate unpaid principal balance. The Company’s contribution to AOMT 2023-1 in January 2023 brings the total securitized unpaid principal balance since December 31, 2021 to approximately $1.0 billion.
  • Portfolio totaled $2.9 billion of residential mortgage loans and other target assets as of December 31, 2022, representing 28% growth since December 31, 2021.

Capital Markets Activity

  • In December 2022, the Company converted approximately $286 million of mark-to-market debt to non-mark-to-market financing for continually performing loans.
  • As of December 31, 2022, the Company was party to five financing lines which permit borrowings in an aggregate amount of up to $1.2 billion.
  • Our total financing capacity as of March 9, 2023 stands at $1.2 billion of which approximately $440 million is drawn, leaving capacity of approximately $767 million for new loan purchases.

Balance Sheet

  • Target assets totaled $2.87 billion as of December 31, 2022.
  • Held residential mortgage whole loans with fair value of $771.0 million as of December 31, 2022.
  • Recourse debt to equity ratio was 2.9x as of December 31, 2022.
  • During 2022, we repurchased approximately 429,333 shares of common stock at an average price of $15.86 per share, for a total of $6.9 million.

On March 9, 2023, the Company declared a dividend of $0.32 per share of common stock for the fourth quarter of 2022. The dividend is payable on March 31, 2023 to common stockholders of record as of March 22, 2023.

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 generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”), excluding (1) unrealized gains and losses on our aggregate portfolio, (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 among 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.

Distributable Earnings Return on Average Equity is a non-GAAP measure and is defined as annual or annualized Distributable Earnings divided by average total stockholders’ equity. We believe that the presentation of Distributable Earnings Return on Average Equity provides investors with a useful measure to facilitate comparisons of financial performance among our REIT peers, but has important limitations. Additionally, we believe Distributable Earnings Return on Average Equity provides investors with additional detail on the Distributable Earnings generated by our invested equity capital. We believe Distributable Earnings Return on Average Equity 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 Return on Average Equity 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 Return on Average Equity 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 Return on Average Equity may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other REITs.

Economic book value is a non-GAAP financial measure of our financial position. To calculate our economic book value, the portions of our non-recourse financing obligation held at amortized cost are adjusted to fair value. These adjustments are also reflected in our end of period common stockholders’ equity. Management considers economic book value to provide investors with a useful supplemental measure to evaluate our financial position as it reflects the impact of fair value changes for our legally held retained bonds, irrespective of the accounting model applied for GAAP reporting purposes. Economic book value does not represent and should not be considered as a substitute for book value per share of common stock or stockholders’ equity, as determined in accordance with GAAP, and our calculation of this measure may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
