Capstead Mortgage Corp. Research Report

On July 24, 2013, Capstead Mortgage Corp. (Capstead) reported its Q2 2013 financial results. The Company's net income was $29.9 million or $0.04 per diluted share, down compared to net income of $43.3 million or $0.40 per diluted share in Q2 2012. Andrew F. Jacobs, President and CEO of Capstead, said, "The second quarter was also notable for an abrupt shift in the market to significantly higher long-term interest rates in large part due to concerns regarding the timing of the Federal Reserve reducing and ultimately ending its bond buying program. While we are not immune to this volatility, pricing for our portfolio of short-duration and well-seasoned ARM securities has held up reasonably well compared to pricing for longer duration ARM or fixed-rate mortgage securities. Consequently, we experienced a relatively modest book value decline through quarter-end of 3.8%, or $0.52 per common share, related to our portfolio net of interest rate hedges and other operational factors."
