Only residential mREIT to maintain and earn(b) its dividend payments through the pandemic-related disruption of the fixed income markets. Current low borrowing rates are contributing to improved portfolio returns at relatively low leverage levels. Company Summary Proven Strategy, Efficiently Executed Founded in 1985, Capstead is the oldest publicly-traded residential mortgage REIT. We manage a leveraged portfolio of adjustable-rate residential mortgage securities issued by Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, or Ginnie Mae that can earn attractive risk-adjusted returns. At June 30, 2020, our Agency ARM portfolio stood at $8.3 billion, supported by $1.0 billion in long-term investment capital levered 7.5 times. Our agency-focused, short-duration strategy(a) is designed to insulate investors from credit and, to a large degree, interest rate risk: Investors in agency securities have little, if any, credit risk associated with mortgagor defaults, ARM securities reset to more current interest rates within a relatively short period of time, resulting in smaller fluctuations in portfolio values from changes in interest rates, and Our portfolio duration was approximately 1.2 years at quarter-end, and after considering related borrowings and derivatives held for portfolio hedging purposes, we had a 0.4 year net duration gap. We routinely borrow for 30 to 90 days and extend the duration of our borrowings primarily using eighteen-month to three-year term, pay-fixed, receive three-month LIBOR or OIS, interest rate swap agreements. We have long-term relationships with a variety of domestic and foreign lending counterparties. At quarter-end we had borrowings outstanding with 19 counterparties. We are internally managed with low operating costs and a strong focus on performance-based compensation ensuring the alignment of management’s interests with those of our stockholders. For investors seeking levered returns with a comparably higher degree of safety from interest rate and credit risk, we believe Capstead represents a compelling opportunity that is difficult to find elsewhere in the market. (a) Duration is a measure of market price sensitivity to interest rate movements. A shorter duration indicates less interest rate risk. (b) On a core earnings basis.

We increased our common dividend by 88% from Q1 2019 to Q4 2019 and have maintained a constant dividend for the last three straight quarters. Recent Operating Results The yield curve flattened considerably in 2018 as the Fed increased the Fed Funds rate, hampering our earnings. Our earnings improved in 2019 with the Fed on pause and then reducing the Fed Funds rate the latter half of 2019.

At 14 months, our ARM portfolio has a considerably shorter duration than fixed rate portfolios and therefore considerably less inherent interest rate risk. The relatively modest contraction and extension risk (convexity) of ARM securities naturally mitigates the risk of over or under hedging the portfolio. Why a Short Duration Strategy? Generic fixed rate Fannie Mae 30-year 2.5% fixed-rate TBA 2.54 3.34 6.79 Indicative (contraction) extension (0.80) 3.45 Effects of Instantaneous Parallel Shifts in the Yield Curve on Duration (in years) Duration -100 bps Recent Duration Duration +100 bps Capstead’s portfolio Agency ARM securities 0.80 1.17 1.44 Indicative (contraction) extension (0.37) 0.27 Related borrowings and derivatives -0.73 -0.73 -0.73 Net duration 0.07 0.44 0.71 As a general rule, a one-year duration implies a 1.0% change in price with a 1.0% change in interest rates. For illustrative purposes, the table above assumes no changes in pricing relative to U.S. Treasuries, i.e. spread widening or tightening. Recent duration for Fannie Mae 30-year TBAs is based on August settlement. Capstead’s positions are as of June 30, 2020.

Slide 7

In recent years, we have typically operated with a net duration gap of three to six months with leverage between 8 and 10x. Given the low interest rate sensitivity of our short-duration strategy, our use of leverage is relatively conservative. As of June 30, 2020, our leverage stood at 7.5x, providing us future flexibility as opportunities present themselves. Short-Duration with Conservative Leverage

ARM Portfolio Characteristics 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 June 30, 2020. Net WAC is expressed as a percentage calculated on an annualized basis on the unpaid principal balances of the mortgage loans underlying these investments. As such, it is similar to the cash yield on the portfolio which is calculated using amortized cost basis. Fully-Indexed WAC represents the weighted average coupon upon one or more resets using interest rate indexes and net margins in effect as of June 30, 2020. Excludes $1 million in legacy portfolio of fixed-rate residential mortgage investments. Reductions in short-term interest rates benefit earnings immediately via lower borrowing rates, while cash yields decline over time. Lower projected WACs on current-reset ARMs reduce incentives to refinance.

Agency Mortgage Prepayment Speeds 89% increase 55% increase ARMs tend to prepay faster than fixed-rate MBS and are priced accordingly. The current low interest rate environment coupled with the typical summer selling season has led to increases in prepayment speeds across all mortgage investments. However, ARM speeds have not increased as fast as fixed-rate speeds in recent periods.

When analyzed in conjunction with our GAAP operating results, we believe our presentation of core earnings and core earnings per common share allows investors to more effectively evaluate our performance and provides investors management’s view of the Company’s economic performance. Non-GAAP Financial Measures On March 1, 2019, the Company discontinued its use of hedge accounting on its interest rate swaps related to secured borrowings and introduced these non-GAAP financial measures. 2020 2019 Q2 Q1 Q4 Q3 Q2 Amount Per Share Amount Per Share Amount Per Share Amount Per Share Amount Per Share Net income (loss) $22,704 $0.19 $-,204,653 $-2.21 $32,672 $0.28999999999999998 $3,196 $-0.02 $,-63,460 $-0.8 Unrealized loss (gain) on non-designated derivative instruments -2,229 -0.02 56,182 0.59 ,-51,017 -0.54 ,-16,952 -0.19 59,388 0.7 Realized loss on termination of non-designated derivative instruments 1,320 0.01 ,100,565 1.06 39,312 0.42 31,673 0.35 24,202 0.28000000000000003 Amortization of unrealized loss (gain) of derivative instruments held at the time of de-designation 122 0 -,103 0 -1,858 0.02 -3,119 -0.03 -6,715 -0.08 Realized loss on sale of investments – – 67,820 0.72 – – – – 1,365 0.02 Core earnings $21,917 $0.18 $19,811 $0.16 $19,109 $0.15 $14,798 $0.11 $14,780 $0.12 2020 2019 Year Ended Q2 Q1 Q4 Q3 Q2 2019 2018 2017 2016 2015 Total financing spreads 1.52E-2 6.6E-3 5.7000000000000002E-3 3.0999999999999999E-3 3.3999999999999998E-3 4.1000000000000003E-3 3.3E-3 5.4999999999999997E-3 6.4000000000000003E-3 8.0999999999999996E-3 Impact of yields on other interest-earning assets 0.04 0.02 0.01 0 0.01 0 0 7.7851161787011181E-3 0.02 0.03 Impact of borrowing rates on other interest-paying liabilities 0.09 4.7719269475736403E-2 4.7719269475736403E-2 4.7719269475736403E-2 4.7719269475736403E-2 0.05 0.05 5.1329860796100801E-2 0.06 5.1329860796100801E-2 Impact of amortization of unrealized gain, net of unrealized losses on de-designated derivative instruments 0.01 0 -7.0000000000000007E-2 -0.12 -0.24 -0.14000000000000001 – – – – Impact of net interest cash flows on non-designated derivative instruments -0.41 0.04 0.14000000000000001 0.21 0.31 0.21 – – – – Financing spreads on residential mortgage investments 1.25 0.77 0.7 0.45 0.47 0.53 0.38 0.61 0.72 0.89
