Exhibit 99.1
CreXus Investment Corp. Reports GAAP EPS for the 2nd Quarter 2011 of $0.29 as Compared to $0.13 for the 2nd Quarter 2010
NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--August 1, 2011--CreXus Investment Corp. (NYSE: CXS), today reported GAAP net income for the quarter ended June 30, 2011, of $22.1 million or $0.29 per average share as compared to $2.4 million or $0.13 per average share for the quarter ended June 30, 2010 and $4.6 million or $0.23 per average share for the quarter ended March 31, 2011.
During the quarter ended June 30, 2011, the Company sold commercial mortgage-backed securities (“CMBS”) with a carrying value of $200.8 million resulting in realized gains of $13.9 million. The Company did not sell CMBS during the quarters ended June 30, 2010 and March 31, 2011.
The Company declared common stock dividends for the quarter ended June 30, 2011, of $0.25 per share as compared to a dividend of $0.12 per share for the quarter ended June 30, 2010 and $0.23 per share for the quarter ended March 31, 2011. The Company distributes dividends based on its current estimate of taxable earnings per common share, not GAAP earnings. Taxable and GAAP earnings will typically differ due to items such as differences in premium amortization and discount accretion, non-taxable unrealized and realized gains and losses, credit loss recognition, and non-deductible general and administrative expenses. The annualized dividend yield on the Company’s common stock for the quarter ended June 30, 2011, based on the June 30, 2011 closing price of $11.11, was 9.00%.
On a GAAP basis the Company provided an annualized return on average equity of 10.04% for the quarter ended June 30, 2011, as compared to 3.68% for the quarter ended June 30, 2010 and 6.80% for the quarter ended March 31, 2011.
As previously disclosed, the proceeds of the common stock sold by the Company at the end of the first quarter were used to acquire a portfolio of commercial real estate assets from Barclays Capital Real Estate Inc. and Barclays Capital Real Estate Finance, Inc. This acquisition closed at the beginning of the second quarter.
Kevin Riordan, Chief Executive Officer and President of CreXus, commented on the quarter’s results. “The second quarter was active and productive for CreXus. We deployed the proceeds of our stock offerings to acquire the Barclays portfolio and are actively managing those assets. We also entered into the exclusive strategic loan production alliance with Bedrock Capital. We immediately integrated the triple-net lease team of our investment manager, FIDAC, led by Gordon DuGan. These activities and others have served to not only expand the pipeline of opportunities available to us but also increase the resources to take advantage of those opportunities. We look forward to delivering the results of these and other efforts to our shareholders in the quarters and years ahead.”
At June 30, 2011, the weighted average yield on interest earning assets was 4.72% and the weighted average cost of funds on financing agreements was 0.20%. At June 30, 2010, the weighted average yield on interest earning assets was 6.74% and the weighted average cost of funds on secured financing agreements was 3.61%. At March 31, 2011, the weighted average yield on interest earning assets was 6.47% and the weighted average cost of funds on secured financing agreements was 3.60%. Leverage at June 30, 2011 was 0.1:1, compared to 0.7:1 and 0.2:1 at June 30, 2010 and March 31, 2011, respectively.
