APOLLO RESIDENTIAL MORTGAGE, INC. REPORTS
THIRD QUARTER 2015 FINANCIAL RESULTS
New York, NY, November 5, 2015 Apollo Residential Mortgage, Inc. (the Company) (NYSE: AMTG) today reported financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2015.
Third Quarter 2015 Financial Summary
| Net loss allocable to common stock and participating securities of $25.2 million, or $(0.79) per basic and diluted share of common stock; |
| Operating earnings(1) of $17.4 million, or $0.54 per share of common stock; |
| Declared a $0.48 dividend per share of common stock for the quarter. |
Third Quarter 2015 Portfolio Summary
| Book value per share of common stock of $17.08 at September 30, 2015; |
| Repurchased 360,800 shares of common stock at a weighted average per share price of $13.86, representing approximately 1% of shares of common stock outstanding at quarter end; |
| $3.3 billion residential mortgage backed securities (RMBS) portfolio consisted of Agency RMBS with an estimated fair value of $2.0 billion and non-Agency RMBS with an estimated fair value of $1.3 billion; |
| RMBS, securitized mortgage loans and other credit investment portfolio had a 2.58% effective net interest rate spread at September 30, 2015(1); |
| Average leverage multiple of 4.1x for the quarter ended September 30, 2015; |
| $12.4 million of advances outstanding on warehouse line receivable, $25.0 million of legal title to real estate subject to bond-for-title contracts (BFT Contracts) and $7.4 million of mortgage loans outstanding associated with the Seller Financing Program(2) at September 30, 2015; |
| Increased net positions in Agency risk sharing securities, small-balance commercial mortgage backed securities (SBC-MBS) and Small Business Administration interest-only securities (SBA-IO) by $9.0 million, $1.0 million and $3.0 million, respectively. |
The global fixed income markets were extremely volatile in the third quarter, resulting in spread widening across the mortgage backed securities sector and, consequently, negatively impacting AMTGs book value per common share, said Michael Commaroto, Chief Executive Officer and President of the Company. While AMTGs book value declined, the Companys investment portfolio continued to produce solid operating earnings. We continue to focus on expanding AMTGs credit-related investment initiatives as we remain constructive on the overall housing market.
(1) | Reflects a non-GAAP financial measure (i.e., a measure that is not calculated in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles). See Reconciliations of Non-GAAP Financial Measures in this press release. |
(2) | The Seller Financing Program refers to the initiative whereby the Company provides funding through a warehouse line to a third-party to finance the acquisition and improvement of single-family homes. Once the homes are improved, they are marketed for sale, with the seller providing financing to the buyer in the form of a mortgage loan or a BFT Contract. The mortgage loans and BFT Contracts may be purchased by the Company or by an unrelated third party from the counterparty, at which time the associated balance on the warehouse line is repaid. |

Estimated Taxable Income
The Companys taxable income may vary significantly on a quarterly basis. Estimated taxable income for the quarter ended September 30, 2015 was $0.41 per share of common stock, or $0.13 lower than the Companys operating earnings per share of common stock. This difference primarily reflects estimated tax to GAAP timing differences associated with discount accretion on certain non-Agency RMBS. These fluctuations primarily are attributable to changes in cash flows on the Companys locked-out non-Agency RMBS, which impacts the timing of market discount accretion the Company recognizes for tax purposes on such securities. Certain locked-out bonds may move from being locked-out to current pay, and vice-versa, depending on the performance of the underlying collateral and the associated triggers specified in the securitization structure.
Book Value
The Companys book value per share of common stock at September 30, 2015 was $17.08 as compared to book value per share of common stock of $18.31 at June 30, 2015.

Reconciliations of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Included in this press release are disclosures about the Companys operating earnings, operating earnings per share of common stock, effective levered asset yield and effective net interest rate spread which measures constitute non-GAAP financial measures within the meaning of Regulation G promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company believes that the non-GAAP financial measures presented, when considered together with GAAP financial measures, provide information that is useful to investors in understanding the Companys operating results. An analysis of any non-GAAP financial measures should be made in conjunction with results presented in accordance with GAAP.
Operating earnings and operating earnings per share of common stock presented exclude, as applicable: (i) certain realized and unrealized gains and losses recognized through earnings; (ii) non-cash equity compensation; (iii) one-time events pursuant to changes in GAAP; and (iv) certain other non-cash charges. Operating earnings is a non-GAAP financial measure that is used by the Manager to assess the Companys business results.
While the Company has not elected hedge accounting under GAAP for its Swaps, such derivative instruments are viewed by the Company as an economic hedge against increases in future market interest rates. To present how the Company views its Swaps, the Company provides the effective cost of funds which is comprised of GAAP interest expense plus the interest expense component for Swaps. The interest expense component of the Companys Swaps reflects the net interest payments made or accrued on its Swaps. The Company believes that the presentation of effective cost of funds is useful for investors as it presents the Companys borrowing costs as viewed by management.
The Company believes that the non-GAAP measures presented provide investors and other readers of this press release with meaningful information to assess the performance of the Companys ongoing business and believes it is useful supplemental information for both management and investors in evaluating the Companys financial results. The primary limitation associated with operating earnings as a measure of the Companys financial performance over any period is that such measure excludes, except for the net interest component of Swaps, the effects of net realized and unrealized gains and losses from investments and realized and unrealized gains and losses from derivative instruments. In addition, the Companys presentation of operating earnings may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures of other companies, who may use different definitions or calculations for such term. As a result, operating earnings should not be considered as a substitute for GAAP net income as a measure of the Companys financial performance or the Companys liquidity under GAAP.
A reconciliation of the GAAP items discussed above to their non-GAAP measures for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2015 and the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2014, are presented in the tables below.
