Angel Oak Mortgage REIT, Inc. Reports Second Quarter 2025 Financial Results
ATLANTA--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Angel Oak Mortgage REIT, Inc. (NYSE: AOMR) (the 'Company,' 'we,' and 'our'), a leading real estate finance company focused on acquiring and investing in first lien non-QM loans and other mortgage-related assets in the U.S. mortgage market, today reported financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2025. Second Quarter 2025 and Year-to-Date Highlights Q2 2025 GAAP net income of $0.8 million, or $0.03 per diluted share of common stock. Q2 2025 net interest income of $9.9 million demonstrates an increase of 5.0% versus Q2 2024 net interest income of $9.5 million and a slight decrease of 1.5% compared to Q1 2025 net interest income of $10.1 million. Net interest income of $20.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, an increase of 11% compared to the six months ended June 30, 2024. GAAP book value of $10.37 per share of common stock and economic book value of $12.97 per share of common stock as of June 30, 2025, decreases of 3.1% and 3.3%, respectively, from March 31, 2025. Q2 2025 Distributable Earnings of $2.6 million, or $0.11 per diluted share of common stock. Declared a dividend of $0.32 per share of common stock, which will be paid on August 29, 2025, to common stockholders of record as of August 22, 2025. Sreeni Prabhu, Chief Executive Officer and President of Angel Oak Mortgage REIT, Inc., said "The second quarter of 2025 was an active one for AOMR, as we completed two securitizations in addition to issuing $42.5 million of senior unsecured notes in May. These transactions are designed to support our strategic goal of earnings growth through accretive capital markets participation and diligent capital deployment. We quickly deployed the capital from this quarter's senior unsecured notes issuance into high-quality, current market coupon non-QM loans and other target assets." He continued, "As such, we expect to resume our quarterly sequential net interest income growth in the next quarter, as demonstrated with 2024's senior unsecured notes issuance. As always, we will remain committed to growing long-term shareholder value through disciplined risk management, securitization execution, and strategic capital deployment.' Portfolio and Investment Activity In April 2025, the Company issued AOMT 2025-4, a $284.3 million scheduled unpaid principal balance securitization backed by a pool of residential mortgage loans. We issued AOMT 2025-4 as the sole participant in the securitization. We used the proceeds to repay outstanding debt of approximately $242.4 million, and the $24.7 million of cash released was used for new loan purchases and operational purposes. In May 2025, we participated in AOMT 2025-6, an approximately $349.7 million scheduled unpaid principal balance securitization backed by a pool of residential mortgage loans, to which we contributed loans with a scheduled principal balance of $87.2 million. We used the proceeds of the securitization to repay outstanding debt of approximately $73.1 million, and retained bonds of $8.1 million. The securitization released $9.2 million of cash, which was used for operational purposes. We participated in this securitization alongside other Angel Oak entities. During the quarter ended June 30, 2025, the Company purchased $146.6 million of newly-originated, current market coupon non-QM residential mortgage loans and home equity lines of credit ("HELOC"), with a weighted average coupon of 8.68%, a weighted average combined loan-to-value ratio (or 'CLTV', calculated as the primary or first lien mortgage loan amount plus any additional borrowings secured by the property, such as a HELOC, divided by the estimated value of the property) of 68.4% and a weighted average credit score of 757. As of June 30, 2025, the weighted average coupon of our residential whole loans portfolio was 8.37%, marking a 66 basis point increase compared to June 30, 2024. Capital Markets Activity In May 2025, we closed an underwritten public offering and sale of, and issued, $42.5 million in aggregate principal amount of our 9.750% Senior Notes due 2030 (the '2030 Notes'). The 2030 Notes bear interest at a rate of 9.750% per annum. After deducting the underwriting discount and other debt issuance costs, we received net proceeds of approximately $40.6 million. We used the majority of the net proceeds from the offering for general corporate purposes, which included the acquisition of non-QM loans and other target assets in a manner consistent with our strategy and investment guidelines. As of June 30, 2025, the Company was a party to three loan financing lines which permit borrowings in an aggregate amount of up to $1.1 billion, of which approximately $118.6 million is drawn, leaving capacity of approximately $931.4 million for new loan purchases. Balance Sheet Target assets totaled $2.5 billion as of June 30, 2025. The Company held residential mortgage whole loans with fair value of $200.7 million as of June 30, 2025. As of June 30, 2025, the Company's recourse debt to equity ratio was approximately 1.1x. Dividend On August 5, 2025, the Company declared a dividend of $0.32 per share of common stock, which will be paid on August 29, 2025, to common stockholders of record as of August 22, 2025. Conference Call and Webcast Information The Company will host a live conference call and webcast today, August 5, 2025 at 8:30 a.m. Eastern time. To listen to the live webcast, go to the Investors section of the Company's website at at least 15 minutes prior to the scheduled start time in order to register and install any necessary audio software. To Participate in the Telephone Conference Call: Dial in at least 15 minutes prior to start time. Domestic: 1-844-826-3033 International: 1-412-317-5185 For the conference call playback (which can be accessed through August 19, 2025), dial one of the following numbers: Domestic: 1-844-512-2921 International: 1-412-317-6671 Pass code: 10200567 Non-GAAP Metrics Distributable Earnings is a non‑GAAP measure and is defined as net income (loss) allocable to common stockholders as calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ('GAAP'), excluding (1) unrealized gains and losses on our aggregate portfolio, (2) impairment losses, (3) extinguishment of debt, (4) non-cash equity compensation expense, (5) the incentive fee earned by Falcons I, LLC, our external manager (our 'Manager'), (6) realized gains or losses on swap terminations and (7) certain other nonrecurring gains or losses. We believe that the presentation of Distributable Earnings provides investors with a useful measure to facilitate comparisons of financial performance among our real estate investment trust ('REIT') peers, but has important limitations. We believe Distributable Earnings as described above helps evaluate our financial performance without the impact of certain transactions but is of limited usefulness as an analytical tool. Therefore, Distributable Earnings should not be viewed in isolation and is not a substitute for net income computed in accordance with GAAP. Our methodology for calculating Distributable Earnings may differ from the methodologies employed by other REITs to calculate the same or similar supplemental performance measures, and as a result, our Distributable Earnings may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other REITs. Distributable Earnings Return on Average Equity is a non-GAAP measure and is defined as annual or annualized Distributable Earnings divided by average total stockholders' equity. We believe that the presentation of Distributable Earnings Return on Average Equity provides investors with a useful measure to facilitate comparisons of financial performance among our REIT peers, but has important limitations. Additionally, we believe Distributable Earnings Return on Average Equity provides investors with additional detail on the Distributable Earnings generated by our invested equity capital. We believe Distributable Earnings Return on Average Equity as described above helps evaluate our financial performance without the impact of certain transactions but is of limited usefulness as an analytical tool. Therefore, Distributable Earnings Return on Average Equity should not be viewed in isolation and is not a substitute for net income computed in accordance with GAAP. Our methodology for calculating Distributable Earnings Return on Average Equity may differ from the methodologies employed by other REITs to calculate the same or similar supplemental performance measures, and as a result, our Distributable Earnings Return on Average Equity may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other REITs. Economic book value is a non-GAAP financial measure of our financial position. To calculate our economic book value, the portions of our non-recourse financing obligation held at amortized cost are adjusted to fair value. These adjustments are also reflected in our end of period total stockholders' equity. Management considers economic book value to provide investors with a useful supplemental measure to evaluate our financial position as it reflects the impact of fair value changes for our legally held retained bonds, irrespective of the accounting model applied for GAAP reporting purposes. Economic book value does not represent and should not be considered as a substitute for book value per share of common stock or stockholders' equity, as determined in accordance with GAAP, and our calculation of this measure may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

Coinbase Announces Proposed Private Offering of $2.0 Billion of Convertible Senior Notes
Remote-First-Company/PHOENIX--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Coinbase Global, Inc. ('Coinbase') (Nasdaq: COIN) today announced its intention to offer, subject to market conditions and other factors, $1.0 billion aggregate principal amount of Convertible Senior Notes due 2029 (the '2029 notes') and $1.0 billion aggregate principal amount of Convertible Senior Notes due 2032 (the '2032 notes' and, together with the 2029 notes, the 'notes') in a private offering (the 'offering') to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the 'Securities Act'). Coinbase also expects to grant the initial purchasers of each series of notes options to purchase, for settlement within a period of 13 days from, and including, the date the notes are first issued, up to an additional $150.0 million principal amount of the 2029 notes and $150.0 million principal amount of the 2032 notes. The notes will be senior, unsecured obligations of Coinbase and will accrue interest payable semi-annually in arrears. The 2029 notes will mature on October 1, 2029 and the 2032 notes will mature on October 1, 2032, unless earlier repurchased, converted or, in the case of the 2032 notes, redeemed. The notes will be convertible into cash, shares of Coinbase's Class A common stock, or a combination thereof, at Coinbase's election. The interest rate, initial conversion rate, and other terms of each series of notes are to be determined upon pricing of the offering. In connection with the pricing of the notes, Coinbase expects to enter into privately negotiated capped call transactions relating to each series of notes with one or more of the initial purchasers or their affiliates and/or other financial institutions (the 'option counterparties'). The capped call transactions relating to the 2029 notes will cover, subject to customary adjustments, the number of shares of Coinbase's Class A common stock that will initially underlie the 2029 notes, and the capped call transactions relating to the 2032 notes will cover, subject to customary adjustments, the number of shares of Coinbase's Class A common stock that will initially underlie the 2032 notes. The capped call transactions relating to each series of notes are expected generally to reduce the potential dilution to Coinbase's Class A common stock upon any conversion of the relevant series of notes and/or offset any potential cash payments Coinbase is required to make in excess of the principal amount of converted notes of such series, as the case may be, with such reduction and/or offset subject to a cap. Coinbase has been advised that, in connection with establishing their initial hedges of the capped call transactions, the option counterparties or their respective affiliates expect to enter into various derivative transactions with respect to Coinbase's Class A common stock and/or purchase shares of Coinbase's Class A common stock concurrently with or shortly after the pricing of the notes. This activity could increase (or reduce the size of any decrease in) the market price of Coinbase's Class A common stock or the notes at that time. In addition, Coinbase has been advised that the option counterparties or their respective affiliates may modify their hedge positions by entering into or unwinding various derivatives with respect to Coinbase's Class A common stock and/or purchasing or selling Coinbase's Class A common stock or other securities of Coinbase in secondary market transactions following the pricing of the notes and from time to time prior to the maturity of each series of notes (and are likely to do so during the relevant valuation periods under the capped call transactions or following any early conversion of the notes, any repurchase of the notes by Coinbase on any fundamental change repurchase date, any redemption date (with respect to the 2032 notes) or any other date on which the notes are retired by Coinbase, in each case if Coinbase exercises its option to terminate the relevant portion of the capped call transactions). This activity could also cause or avoid an increase or a decrease in the market price of Coinbase's Class A common stock or the notes, which could affect the ability of noteholders to convert the notes and, to the extent the activity occurs during any observation period related to a conversion of a series of notes, it could affect the number of shares of Class A common stock, if any, and value of the consideration that noteholders will receive upon conversion of the applicable notes. Coinbase intends to use a portion of the net proceeds from the offering to pay the cost of the capped call transactions relating to each series of notes. If the initial purchasers exercise their options to purchase additional 2029 notes and/or 2032 notes, Coinbase expects to use a portion of the net proceeds from the sale of such additional notes to enter into additional capped call transactions with the option counterparties with respect to the relevant series of notes as to which the option was exercised. Coinbase intends to use the remainder of the net proceeds from the offering for general corporate purposes, which may include working capital, capital expenditures and investments in and acquisitions of other companies, products or technologies that Coinbase may identify from time to time, as well as to repurchase, repay at maturity, or repurchase or redeem prior to maturity, as applicable, from time to time and subject to market conditions, shares of its Class A common stock and/or its outstanding 0.50% Convertible Senior Notes due 2026, 3.375% Senior Notes due 2028, 3.625% Senior Notes due 2031 and 0.25% Convertible Senior Notes due 2030. The notes will only be offered and sold to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A promulgated under the Securities Act by means of a private offering memorandum. Neither the notes nor the shares of Coinbase's Class A common stock potentially issuable upon conversion of the notes, if any, have been, or will be, registered under the Securities Act or the securities laws of any other jurisdiction, and unless so registered, may not be offered or sold in the United States, except pursuant to an applicable exemption from such registration requirements. This announcement is neither an offer to sell nor a solicitation of an offer to buy any of the notes or any shares of Class A common stock potentially issuable upon conversion of the notes and shall not constitute an offer, solicitation, or sale in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation, or sale is unlawful.

The foregoing list of risks and uncertainties is illustrative, but is not exhaustive. For information about other potential factors that could affect Coinbase's business and financial results, please review the 'Risk Factors' described in Coinbase's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 and in Coinbase's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2025, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the 'SEC') and in Coinbase's other filings with the SEC.

GMO GlobalSign SAN Licensing Supports Businesses Preparing for Shorter SSL/TLS Certificate Lifecycles
BOSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--As businesses worldwide prepare for the shift to shorter certificate lifecycles — culminating in 47-days by 2029 — GMO GlobalSign, Inc., a global Certificate Authority (CA), today announced enhancements to its Subject Alternative Names (SAN) Licensing solution. Designed to support enterprises at every scale, SAN Licensing offers a fixed-price model that simplifies certificate management and reduces waste as organizations adapt to increasingly higher certificate issuance volumes. Learn how SAN licensing from GMO GlobalSign can help your organization ease into 47-day TLS and SSL certificates. Share Available through GMO GlobalSign's Managed SSL and Atlas (a Digital Identity Platform), SAN Licensing allows companies to set a maximum number of unique SANs or Fully Qualified Domain Names (FQDNs) across all SSL/TLS certificates. This approach ensures flexibility while enabling organizations to optimize costs by avoiding duplicate charges for the same SANs used across multiple certificates. Depending on the GMO GlobalSign platform customers utilize, a SAN certificate — also known as a Multi-Domain certificate — secures up to either 100 or 999 domain names, subdomains, or public IP addresses with a single certificate and IP address. This model has become a standard for businesses seeking efficiency and simplicity in securing multiple hostnames. With the CA/B Forum vote in April setting the stage for 47-day certificate validity by March 2029, many IT and security teams are focused on mitigating the operational impact of increased certificate turnover. SAN Licensing can ease this transition by supporting automated issuance workflows and reducing overall certificate management complexity. While 47-day certificates increase the quantity required, SAN licensing removes the need to count certificates, allowing users to focus on the domains they need to secure. GMO GlobalSign's SAN Licensing enables customers to reissue certificates under a SAN license without incurring the cost of each certificate - ideal for the regular reissue of certificates under the gradual reduction of certificate life spans. Other benefits include: Licenses can be reallocated when certificates are no longer needed, minimizing waste and reducing spend. GMO GlobalSign's SAN Licensing is enabled for all TLS certificate types and optimized for automated issuance and renewal through the ACME protocol. Organizations can issue unique certificates per server, enhancing security without the need to reuse keys. 'Whether managing five domains or 5,000, GMO GlobalSign's SAN Licensing provides consistent and predictable pricing while supporting rapid certificate rotation,' said Gregory Tomko, Director of Product Management, GMO GlobalSign. 'This offering addresses the growing need for efficient, automated certificate management in an era of shortened lifecycles.' Since its introduction in 2017, SAN Licensing has been adopted across industries and is particularly beneficial for: Temporary environments for product demonstrations, testing, or promotions. DevOps teams managing ephemeral environments. Large enterprises with redundant, highly available infrastructure. Service providers dynamically scaling their infrastructure to match demand.
