The Company generally derives its revenues from its investment portfolio of MSR and Agency RMBS, which includes servicing fee income, float income, ancillary and other fee income, and interest income, net of premium amortization and discount accretion. The Company’s investment portfolio is subject to market risks, primarily interest rate risk, basis risk and prepayment risk. Management seeks to offset a portion of its Agency pool market value exposure through its investment in MSR and interest-only Agency RMBS. The Company’s strategy of pairing Agency RMBS with MSR, with a focus on managing various associated risks, including interest rate, basis, prepayment, and credit and financing risk, is intended to generate more stable performance relative to an investment portfolio of RMBS without MSR, across changing market environments.
The Company’s investment portfolio is managed as a whole and resources are allocated and financial performance is assessed by the Company’s chief operating decision maker, or the CODM, based on total assets reported on the consolidated balance sheet and comprehensive income (loss) reported on the consolidated statement of comprehensive income (loss). The Company’s CODM views consolidated expense information related to interest expenses, compensation and benefits, other operating expenses and tax expenses to be significant. Consolidated comprehensive income (loss) is also used by the CODM to monitor actual results and benchmarking to that of its peers, the results of which are used to establish management’s compensation. Investment and hedging decisions are assessed collectively by the CODM, based on the inputs discussed above. Accordingly, the Company consists of a single operating and reportable segment and the condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto are presented as a single reportable segment.
