New York, New York–February 25, 2014– Annaly Capital Management, Inc. (NYSE: NLY) today announced financial results for the quarter ended December 31, 2013.

Financial Performance

GAAP net income for the quarter ended December 31, 2013 was $1.0 billion or $1.07 per average common share as compared to GAAP net income of $192.5 million or $0.18 per average common share for the quarter ended September 30, 2013, and GAAP net income of $700.5 million or $0.70 per average common share for the quarter ended December 31, 2012. The increase from both prior periods was largely attributable to higher unrealized gains on interest rate swaps, trading assets and interest-only Agency mortgage-backed securities. Core earnings for the quarter ended December 31, 2013 was $350.1 million or $0.35 per average common share as compared to $282.3 million or $0.28 per average common share for the quarter ended September 30, 2013, and $335.1 million or $0.32 per average common share for the quarter ended December 31, 2012. "Core earnings" represents a non-GAAP measure and is defined as net income (loss) excluding gains or losses on disposals of investments and termination of interest rate swaps, unrealized gains or losses on interest rate swaps and Agency interest-only mortgage-backed securities, net loss on extinguishment of the 4% Convertible Senior Notes due 2015, net gains and losses on trading assets, impairment losses and loss on previously held equity interest in CreXus Investment Corp.

GAAP net income for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively was $3.7 billion or $3.86 per average common share and $1.7 billion or $1.74 per average common share. Core earnings for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, was $1.2 billion or $1.21 per average common share and $1.5 billion or $1.54 per average common share, respectively.

For the quarter ended December 31, 2013, the annualized yield on average interest-earning assets was 3.50% and the annualized cost of funds on average interest-bearing liabilities, including the net interest payments on interest rate swaps, was 2.07%, which resulted in an average interest rate spread of 1.43%.  This was a 36 basis point increase from the 1.07% average interest rate spread for the quarter ended September 30, 2013, and a 49 basis point increase from the 0.94% average interest rate spread for the quarter ended December 31, 2012. Our annualized yield on average interest-earning assets increased for the quarter ended December 31, 2013 when compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2013 due to lower amortization expense on our Investment Securities, primarily driven by lower prepayment speeds experienced during the current quarter. Our annualized cost of funds on average interest-bearing liabilities increased for the quarter ended December 31, 2013 when compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2013 due to higher interest rate swap notional amounts and higher cost of interest rate swaps coupled with lower repurchase agreements balances during the current quarter.

Wellington J. Denahan, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Annaly, commented on the Company’s results. “We are encouraged by the reduced uncertainty in the fixed income markets with the introduction of monetary policy tapering.  Our commercial assets continue to build momentum, with commercial investments now representing 14% of our stockholders’ equity.  The lower leverage stance permits us to be opportunistic with capital deployment allowing us to strengthen earnings in future periods.”

Hedge Portfolio

At December 31, 2013, the Company had entered into interest rate swaps with a notional amount of $52.4 billion and interest rate swaptions with a net notional amount of $4.2 billion, or 92% of the Company’s repurchase agreements, compared to 85% of the Company’s repurchase agreements at September 30, 2013 and 46% of the Company’s repurchase agreements at December 31, 2012.  Changes in the unrealized gains or losses on the interest rate swaps are reflected in the Company’s consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss).  The purpose of the interest rate swaps is to mitigate the risk of rising interest rates that affect the Company’s cost of funds.  Since the Company pays a fixed rate and receives a floating rate on the notional amount of the swaps, the intended effect of the swaps is to lock in a cost of financing.  As of December 31, 2013, the swap portfolio had a weighted average pay rate of 2.14%, a weighted average receive rate of 0.20% and weighted average maturity of 5.26 years.

At December 31, 2013, the Company had entered into interest rate swaptions with a net notional amount of $4.2 billion. Changes in the unrealized gains or losses on the interest rate swaptions are reflected in the Company’s consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss).  The interest rate swaptions provide the Company with the option to enter into an interest rate swap agreement for a specified notional amount, duration, and pay and receive rates.  As of December 31, 2013, the long swaption portfolio had a weighted average pay rate of 3.07% and weighted average maturity of 4.26 months. As of December 31, 2013, the short swaption portfolio had a weighted average receive rate of 2.83% and weighted average maturity of 23.71 months.

Dividend Declarations
