MANAGEMENT COMMENTARY
"I am very pleased to report that we delivered an economic return on book value was 5.4% during the first quarter, driven by core earnings of $0.32 per share and an increase in our book value of 2.4%," said Jennifer Murphy, Chief Executive Officer of the Company. "Our solid performance for the quarter is the result of the strength of our diversified portfolio and differentiated investment strategy and reflects our focus on generating consistent and sustainable core earnings that will support an attractive dividend, while maintaining the stability of the Company's book value. Our dividend has remained consistent at $0.31 per share for twelve consecutive quarters."
Sean Johnson, Deputy Chief Investment Officer of the Company, commented, "Our strong core earnings and positive performance for the first quarter of 2019 were driven by contributions across our diverse holdings in a number of subsectors of the mortgage market and reflect our efforts to increase our exposure to credit sensitive investments while also complementing these holdings with exposure to Agency CMBS. During the quarter, we acquired $460 million of target assets, including $436 million of credit sensitive investments, consisting primarily of Residential Whole and Commercial Whole Loans and Non-Agency CMBS, areas where we continue to see opportunities to achieve attractive risk-adjusted returns.
"Our current expectations are for continued, yet moderate, U.S. economic growth along with subdued inflation expectations and a more neutral Federal Reserve monetary policy. We believe that credit spread sectors will continue to perform well again in 2019 and we will continue to focus primarily on residential and commercial whole loans. We also believe that our Agency CMBS holdings provide a good balance to our credit-sensitive assets and have a convexity profile that is cost efficient to hedge. We remain constructive on both residential and commercial real estate. The U.S. housing market is entering a more normalized phase as home price appreciation is expected to remain modest. Commercial real estate fundamentals generally continue to be positive, driven by an ongoing economic expansion and job growth. As such, we believe that our strategy of holding a diverse investment portfolio, with our focus on risk management, positions us well to continue generating strong core earnings while preserving our book value, with the overriding goal of providing our shareholders favorable risk-adjusted returns," concluded Mr. Johnson.
