Bimini Capital Management Announces Fourth Quarter 2023 Results

Bimini Capital Management, Inc. (OTCQB: BMNM), (“Bimini Capital,” “Bimini,” or the “Company”), today announced results of operations for the three-month period ended December 31, 2023.

Fourth Quarter 2023 Highlights

  • Net loss of $4.9 million, or $0.48 per common share
  • Book value per share of $0.81
  • Company to discuss results on Friday, March 8, 2024, at 10:00 AM ET

Management Commentary

Commenting on the fourth quarter results, Robert E. Cauley, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, said, “The fourth quarter of 2023 appeared to be the turning point in the current interest rate cycle, and may still prove to be so. As the quarter began in October, every sign pointed to progressively higher interest rates and Federal Reserve monetary policy remaining higher for longer. Not only did incoming economic data consistently exceed expectations – especially readings on the labor market and inflation – but projected Federal governments deficits and related borrowing needs were increased materially, fueling fears of even higher rates as the market was forced to cope with an increased supply of treasuries going forward. Third quarter GDP growth was initially reported at 4.9%, well above the level needed to bring supply/demand imbalances back into alignment and quell inflation. Market sentiment was very poor and risk assets all performed badly. This changed dramatically as we moved into November. The primary reason was the inflation data. While inflation readings were still above economists’ forecasts, they were none-the-less less falling and the 3 and 6-month annualized rates for both headline and core inflation dropped below 3% - and appeared headed towards 2%, the Fed’s announced target. Fed governor Waller stated that if the inflation data trend continued the Fed would likely lower rates soon. Finally at the December FOMC meeting the Chairman, at his post meeting news conference, strongly hinted the Fed was done raising rates and the focus of their discussions had turned to removing restrictive monetary policy. The incoming economic data showed evidence of softness as well. The market reaction to these developments was dramatic. Interest rates declined – by over 100 basis points in the case of maturities of five-years or more, and market pricing reflected approximately six 25 basis point cuts by the Fed by the end of 2024. Risk assets rallied strongly, and several sectors of the fixed income markets reversed year-to-date losses as of November 1, 2023, and ended the year with strong positive returns. As we enter 2024 the market has once again reversed and the data, along with the Fed, has led the market to expect three cuts at most in 2024, and those are much later in the year versus expectations back in December.

“Orchid Island Capital ("Orchid") reported fourth quarter 2023 net income of $27.1 million, and its shareholders equity increased slightly from $466.8 million to $469.9 million. The market conditions in the last two months of the fourth quarter described above led Orchid to report mark-to-market gains on its MBS assets of $205.6 million, exceeding realized losses on its MBS assets of $22.6 million and mark-to-market losses of $149.0 million on derivative hedge instruments. Bimini 's advisory services revenue for the quarter was approximately $3.1 million, a 6% decrease from the comparable quarter in 2022. Orchid is also obligated to reimburse us for direct expenses paid on its behalf and to pay to us Orchid’s pro rata share of overhead as defined in the management agreement.

“With respect to the MBS portfolio at Royal Palm, we added to the MBS portfolio during the third quarter of 2023, increasing the market value from $84.9 million at September 30, 2023 to $92.7 million at December 31, 2023. In response to evolving market conditions during the quarter described above we repositioned the pass-through portfolio by selling lower quality spec pools with 4.0% coupons and redeploying the proceeds into similar quality spec pools with 7.0% coupons, albeit in larger size, thus leading to the increase in the portfolio for the quarter. While the portfolio was increased during the quarter, and the combination of portfolio interest and dividend income from our shares of Orchid Island increased 96% over the comparable quarter of 2022, interest expense on our repurchase obligations continued to rise and increased significantly from $402 thousand for the fourth quarter of 2022 to $1.178 million for the fourth quarter of 2023. As a result, net interest and dividend income for the quarter of $376 thousand was down slightly from $390 thousand for the same quarter of 2022.

“Mark to market gains and losses on our MBS portfolio, hedge positions and shares of Orchid netted to a net gain of $0.6 million, and we recorded a net loss before taxes for the quarter of $404 thousand versus net income before taxes of $1.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2022. We updated our projected utilization of our deferred tax asset and increased the valuation allowance, resulting in a tax provision of $4.5 million and a net loss for the quarter of $4.9 million.

“Market conditions so far in the first quarter of 2024 are less volatile than what we experienced through most of 2023, and 2022 for that matter. However, incoming economic data remains solid and public comments from various Fed officials consistently point to the need for continued diligence on the inflation front and we suspect we will not see interest rate cuts from the Fed in the near term. That being said, a continuation of current market conditions is desirable as it allows us to accumulate cash owing to our NOL’s and continue to grow our RMBS portfolio slowly over time.”

Details of Fourth Quarter 2023 Results of Operations

The Company reported net loss of $4.9 million for the three-month period ended December 31, 2023. Advisory service revenue for the quarter was $3.1 million. We recorded interest and dividend income of $1.6 million and interest expense on repurchase agreements of $1.2 million and long-term debt of $0.6 million. We recorded a $0.1 million mark to market loss on our shares of Orchid common stock and unrealized gains of $2.6 million on our MBS portfolio. The results for the quarter also included operating expenses of $3.8 million and an income tax provision of $4.5 million.

The tables below present the allocation of capital between the respective portfolios at December 31, 2023 and September 30, 2023, and the return on invested capital for each sub-portfolio for the three-month period ended December 31, 2023. Capital allocation is defined as the sum of the market value of securities held, less associated repurchase agreement borrowings, plus cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash associated with repurchase agreements. Capital allocated to non-portfolio assets is not included in the calculation.

The returns on invested capital in the PT MBS and structured MBS portfolios were approximately 11.3% and 5.0%, respectively, for the fourth quarter of 2023. The combined portfolio generated a return on invested capital of approximately 9.4%.

Effective duration is the approximate percentage change in price for a 100 basis point change in rates. An effective duration of 2.508 indicates that an interest rate increase of 1.0% would be expected to cause a 2.508% decrease in the value of the MBS in the Company’s investment portfolio at December 31, 2023. An effective duration of 4.323 indicates that an interest rate increase of 1.0% would be expected to cause a 4.323% decrease in the value of the MBS in the Company’s investment portfolio at December 31, 2022. These figures include the structured securities in the portfolio but not the effect of the Company’s hedges. Effective duration quotes for individual investments are obtained from The Yield Book, Inc.

Financing and Liquidity

As of December 31, 2023, the Company had outstanding repurchase obligations of approximately $86.9 million with a net weighted average borrowing rate of 5.56%. These agreements were collateralized by MBS with a fair value, including accrued interest, of approximately $93.1 million. At December 31, 2023, the Company’s liquidity was approximately $3.9 million, consisting of unpledged MBS and cash and cash equivalents.

We may pledge more of our structured MBS as part of a repurchase agreement funding, but retain cash in lieu of acquiring additional assets. In this way, we can, at a modest cost, retain higher levels of cash on hand and decrease the likelihood we will have to sell assets in a distressed market in order to raise cash. Below is a list of outstanding borrowings under repurchase obligations at December 31, 2023.
