Company Summary
Proven Strategy
Experienced
Management Team
Aligned with
Stockholders
Overview of Capstead Mortgage Corporation
Founded in 1985, Capstead is the oldest publicly-traded Agency mortgage REIT.
At December 31, 2012, we had a residential ARM securities portfolio of $13.85 billion, supported
by long-term investment capital of $1.60 billion levered 8.00 times.*
Our five-year compound annual total return of 12.4% exceeded the Russell 2000 Index and the
NAREIT Mortgage REIT Index.**
We invest exclusively in residential adjustable-rate mortgage (ARM) securities issued and
guaranteed by Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac or Ginnie Mae.  Agency-guaranteed mortgage securities
are considered to have little, if any, credit risk.
Our
focus
on
short-duration
ARM
securities
augmented
with
2-year
interest
rate
swap
agreements
differentiates
us
from
our
peers
because
ARM
securities
reset
to
more
current
interest
rates
within
a
relatively
short
period
of
time.
This
allows
for
the
recovery
of
financing
spreads
diminished
during
periods
of
rising
interest
rates
and
smaller
fluctuations
in
portfolio
values
from
changes
in
interest
rates
compared
to
fixed-rate
mortgage
securities.
With
this
strategy,
Capstead
is
recognized
as
the
most
defensively-positioned
Agency
mortgage
REIT
from
an
interest
rate
risk
perspective.
Our prudently leveraged portfolio provides financial flexibility
to manage changing market
conditions.
Our top four executive officers have over 85 years of combined mortgage finance industry
experience, including over 80 years at Capstead.
We
are
self-managed
with
low
operating
costs
and
a
focus
on
performance-based
compensation
for
our
executive
officers.
This
structure
greatly
enhances
the
alignment
of
management
interests
with
those
of
our
stockholders.

Capstead’s Prudent Use of Leverage
5
**
Borrowings under repurchase arrangements divided by long-term investment capital.
Portfolio leverage remained stable throughout 2012 at approximately eight times long-term investment capital.  In our view,
borrowing at current levels represents an appropriate and prudent use of leverage for an agency-guaranteed ARM securities
portfolio in today’s market conditions. 
Through September 2012, we raised $142 million in new common equity capital using our at-the-market continuous offering
program.  This program was suspended with the October 30, 2012 announcement of a $100 million common stock buy back
program.  As of December 31, 2012, we repurchased $35 million in
common shares under this authorization and an
additional $7 million in early January 2013.

As of December 31, 2012
As of December 31, 2012
Low risk agency-guaranteed residential ARM securities financed primarily with 30-90 day “repo”
borrowings, augmented with two-year interest rate swap agreements for hedging purposes.
Residential ARM Securities Portfolio
Repurchase Arrangements & Similar Borrowings
Total: $12.78 billion
*    Based on fair market value as of the indicated balance sheet date. 
Total: $13.85 billion*
Most of our securities are backed by well-seasoned mortgage
loans with coupon interest rates that reset at least annually or
begin doing so after an initial fixed-rate period of five years or
less.
We have long-term relationships with numerous lending
counterparties.  As of December 31, 2012, we had borrowings
outstanding with 23 counterparties.
Fourth quarter 2012 unhedged borrowing rates averaged 45
basis points, up from 41 basis points during the third quarter
(0.63% after considering currently-paying interest rate swaps).
At December 31, 2012 we held $4.20 billion notional amount of 
currently-paying two-year interest rate swaps requiring fixed
rate payments averaging 0.75% with average maturities of nine
months.
An
additional
$2.40
billion
notional
amount
of
two-year
forward-starting swaps were held at year-end that will begin
requiring fixed rate payments averaging 0.47% for two-year
periods beginning on various dates between January 2013 and
December 2013.
The duration of our investment portfolio and related ‘repo’
borrowings
was
approximately
10
months
and
months,
respectively, at December 31, 2012.  This  resulted in a net
duration
gap
of
approximately
months.
Duration
is
a
measure of market price sensitivity to interest rate movements.

on
a
multiple of each executive’s base salary. As of  February 25, 2013 our directors and executive officers
beneficially owned 1.8% of our common shares.
Pay structure is variable through compensation elements that focus on “pay for performance.”
Management is incented to grow the Company by issuing common equity capital when it is accretive to
book
value
and
earnings
as
opposed
to
increasing
compensation
or
external
management
fees.
Bottom line: our management prospers when our stockholders prosper.

Net WAC, or weighted average coupon, is the weighted average interest rate of the mortgage loans underlying the indicated investments, net of servicing and other fees, as of December 31,
2012.  Net WAC is expressed as a percentage calculated on an annualized basis on the unpaid principal balance of the mortgage loans underlying these investments.  Fully indexed WAC
represents the weighted average coupon upon one or more resets using interest rate indexes and net margins, as of December 31, 2012. Gross WAC is the weighted average interest rate of
the mortgage loans underlying the indicated investments, including servicing and other fees paid by borrowers, as of December 31, 2012.

Capstead’s Fourth Quarter 2012 Highlights
Earnings of $35.1 million or $0.31
per diluted common share
Financing spreads on residential mortgage investments declined 17 basis points to 1.13%
Book value
decreased $0.30 to $13.58 per common share
Repurchased $42 million in common shares through early January 2013
Portfolio leverage maintained at eight times long-term investment capital
Operating costs as a percentage of average long-term investment capital decreased 9 basis points to 0.79%
Comments from our January 30, 2013 earnings press release:
“During
the
fourth
quarter
yields
on
our
portfolio
were
pressured
by
moderately
higher
mortgage
prepayments
as
well
as
lower
coupon
resets
reflecting
declines
in
recent
quarters
in
the
six-
and
twelve-month
LIBOR
indexes.
Meanwhile,
our
borrowing
costs
were higher, in part reflecting higher market rates over year-end as well as an increase in our currently-paying swap position. 
Together, these factors contributed to a 17 basis point decline in our financing spreads to 1.13%, and a $0.04 reduction in our
earnings to $0.31 per diluted common share.
“Although results have trended lower in recent quarters, we expect 2013 results will be more stable.  This belief reflects our
confidence in our investment strategy of investing solely in short-duration ARM securities.  Approximately 93% of the mortgages
underlying our current-reset ARM securities were originated prior to 2008 and carry coupon interest rates at or below prevailing
fixed
mortgage
rates
diminishing
the
economic
advantage,
if
any,
of
refinancing.
Additionally,
refinancing
for
many
of
these
homeowners continues to be hampered by low housing prices and credit problems.  Newer originations, primarily held in our longer-
to-reset portfolio, remain more susceptible to refinancing because it is easier for many of these borrowers to qualify for new
mortgages
and
it
may
be
more
attractive
to
do
so
from
a
rate
perspective
in
the
current
low
mortgage
interest
rate
environment.
On
an
overall
basis,
we
expect
mortgage
prepayment
levels
to
remain
manageable
in
the
coming
quarters
absent
additional
government intervention to lower mortgage interest rates beyond the Federal Reserve's current bond buying program.  This should
help
contain
investment
premium
amortization
costs,
which
increased
$2.2
million
this
quarter
to
$29.3
million.
Also,
further
declines in weighted average coupons should be muted given that an increasing number of mortgage loans underlying our current-
reset
ARM
securities
are
at
or
near
fully-indexed
levels,
which
now
reflect
six-
and
twelve-month
indices
that
have
largely
returned
to the lower levels prevailing in late 2010.  With respect to our borrowing costs, we have experienced lower market rates
subsequent
to
year-end.
Additionally,
$2.90
billion
of
our
currently-paying
interest
rate
swaps
with
average
fixed
rates
of
0.85%
will
mature during 2013 and have already been largely replaced at significantly lower rates. 
“We
remain
confident
in
and
focused
on
our
investment
strategy
of
managing
a
conservatively
leveraged
portfolio
of
agency-
guaranteed residential ARM securities that can produce attractive risk-adjusted returns over the long term while reducing, but not
eliminating, sensitivity to changes in interest rates.”
