- Wednesday, October 3, 2012, 9:05 AM Javelin Mortgage (JMI) bumps the size of its IPO to 7.25M shares (from 6.25M) through a private placement to 2 directors. The newly formed mREIT - externally managed by ARMOUR Residential (ARR) - raised $145M. (previous) Comment! [Financials]
- Tuesday, September 25, 2012, 12:57 PM The hot mortgage REIT sector gets a bit frothier as Javelin Mortgage (JMI) files to raise $125M in an IPO. The recently formed business, managed by ARMOUR Residential (ARR), will - what else - borrow short, lever up, and buy MBS. (S-11) 16 Comments [Financials]
- Friday, September 21, 2012, 10:04 AM The mortgage REIT sector is lit up green following Western Asset Mortgage's (WMC +7.3%) big dividend increase last night and the upping of its book value by 12% since June 30. That jump in book value could have investors wondering what other mREITs might be harboring such good news. 26 Comments [Financials]
- Friday, September 14, 2012, 8:19 AM ARMOUR Residential REIT (ARR) declares $0.09/share monthly dividend for the month of Oct, Nov. and Dec, 10% decrease from prior dividend of $0.10. Forward yield 14.3%. Shares -0.4% premarket. (PR) 9 Comments [Dividends]
- Friday, September 14, 2012, 7:58 AM The good times should stay rolling for the mortgage REIT industry, says Barron's, as QE3 will continue to make the business of borrowing short to lend long a good one. Two perhaps less-followed mREITs mentioned are AG Mortgage (MITT) and MFA Financial (MFA). ETFs: MORT, REM. AGNC +0.5%, NLY +0.4% premarket. 22 Comments [Financials, Quick Ideas]
- Thursday, September 13, 2012, 1:04 PM The mortgage REIT sector as a whole gains following the QE3 announcement of $40B/month in MBS purchases (though some remain red for the session). Agency REITs are in a tricky spot as the resulting higher MBS prices will help book values, but lower rates should heighten prepayment risk. A couple of selections: AGNC +0.6% after being flat, NLY -0.6% after being off 1.3%. 20 Comments [Financials]
- Tuesday, September 11, 2012, 12:29 PM The success of the mortgage REIT industry (both in garnering AUM and providing shareholder returns) is swell, writes Sober Look, but will end as another chapter in the story of leverage. Borrowing short and lending long, the companies are exposed to rising rates and the chance of financing being cut off - threatening not just shareholders, but U.S. mortgage markets. 50 Comments [Financials]
- Wednesday, August 22, 2012, 11:01 AM Last week's big decline in mortgage applications was all about refinancing as the hiccup in interest rates slowed business. The overall decline of 7.9% was led by a 9% drop in the refi index, which fell to its lowest level since early July. Strangely, the mortgage REITs are lit up bright red today. Aren't prepayments a key leg of the bear case against them? 18 Comments [U.S. Economy]
- Monday, August 6, 2012, 4:20 PM ARMOUR Residential (ARR) announces the replacement of Jeffrey Zimmer as CFO with James Mountain, who comes over from Deloitte & Touche. Zimmer will continue on as Co-CEO and Co-Vice Chairman. (PR) 5 Comments [Financials, Breaking News]
- Friday, August 3, 2012, 9:37 AM ARMOUR Residential (ARR -3%) tumbles after last night's earnings report was accompanied by a secondary offering of 55M shares that had to be coming given the shares' premium to book value (8.6% before the offering). It's the 2nd offering in a month and 4th in the last 8 months. 20 Comments [Financials, On the Move]
- Tuesday, July 31, 2012, 12:27 PM ARMOUR Residential (ARR -2.1%) gets hit with a huge sell order (check out the volume here). Fresh off a July 9 secondary (it's 3rd in 8 months!), the stock has flown right past that decline to new 52-week highs. Look for another "huge" secondary, says Dividend Master, estimating the stock trades at a 14% premium to book value. Shares +9% YTD with a 15.6% annualized dividend. 17 Comments [Financials, On the Move]
- Monday, July 30, 2012, 10:54 AM Newcastle Investment (NCT +2.9%) regains all and more of its big decline following last Wednesday's secondary offering. The company is the latest in a series (I, II, III, to name a few) of mortgage REITs issuing shares at prices well above book value. The firms take these proceeds and invest them in higher-yielding assets - the result being increased book value. 1 Comment [Financials, On the Move]
- Thursday, July 19, 2012, 12:03 PM "Our biggest competitor for assets is the Fed," says CYS Investments (CYS) CEO Kevin Grant on the earnings conference call, describing what may be becoming a frothy mREIT sector as yield-starved investors elbow out not only each other, but the central bank. 22 Comments [Earnings, Financials]
- Monday, July 9, 2012, 4:58 PM ARMOUR Residential (ARR) takes advantage of a recent move higher in its stock price, launching a secondary offering of 40M shares, with an option for underwriters to purchase another 6M. The company should raise about $300M with which to buy more MBS. Shares -2.3% AH. (PR) 6 Comments [Financials]
- Friday, July 6, 2012, 2:48 PM Looking for a sector in the green today? Nearly all of the largest mREITs (over $1B market cap) are up. The yield curve isn't super-steep and government mortgage refinance efforts may pose prepayment risk to holders of MBS, but the date of a potential Fed rate hike keeps getting pushed off - the carry trade lives. 21 Comments [Financials]
- Wednesday, June 20, 2012, 12:59 PM The mortgage REIT sector ticks down on news the Fed is reloading to flatten the yield curve even more. The mREITs make their living off of a steep curve, levering up to borrow short and lend long. Two popular ones: AGNC -1.1%, NLY flat (but both lower than before the announcement). 15 Comments [Financials]

Shame on $ARR for doing a secondary while shares are trading under book value. What a way to destroy shareholder wealth. - View all 8 replies

jrbuettner: I agree with Alfonso, this is over dilution. They better make good use with this new capital and increase their BV asap -
jrbuettner: seems to me they are hitting below the belt with this quick offering, I haven't heard much warning.

Lucas Krupinski: and values go down. It's a balancing act. But SPOing now just lets them buy more at what will likely be the highest prices -
Lucas Krupinski: Even so, price recovers post SPO generally, so i won't fret, just hold through a few distribution cycles.
