First Quarter 2026 Results

"Ellington Financial delivered an exceptionally strong first quarter, generating excellent results even as market volatility rose," said Laurence Penn, Chief Executive Officer and President. "Broad-based contributions across our diversified portfolio drove robust GAAP net income, an annualized economic return of 26%, and book value per share appreciation of 3% net of dividends. Adjusted distributable earnings continued to outpace dividends, supported by high yields and steady credit performance from our loan portfolios, as well as securitization gains at Longbridge. Our Longbridge segment had a tremendous quarter, contributing $0.47 per share to net income and $0.21 per share to ADE for the quarter.

"Our securitization platform continued to operate at an energetic pace during the quarter, as we participated in seven transactions totaling more than $2.8 billion, well above the volume in the comparable period of 2025. Our shift to larger deal sizes, without compromising speed to market, reflects the ongoing scaling of our origination platform. This has translated directly into improved execution economics, as fixed transaction costs are spread across larger pool balances, and as bigger transactions attract a broader and deeper institutional investor base. Greater market presence also enables us to lock in attractive, long-term, non-mark-to-market financing at even more attractive terms.

“At the end of January, we raised common equity on an accretive basis with a highly targeted use of proceeds, namely retiring our highest-cost preferred equity. We will monitor the preferred equity market with an eye toward potentially issuing additional preferred equity at a lower cost. Meanwhile, following the successful completion of our inaugural Moody’s- and Fitch-rated long-term debt deal in the fourth quarter of last year, we have meaningfully enhanced our ability to access the long-term institutional debt markets. Collectively, these actions have further strengthened our balance sheet and enhanced our financial flexibility, positioning us to act decisively, including capitalizing on the compelling investment opportunities emerging from the current environment.”

1 Represents $133.9 million of aggregate net income from the investment portfolio and Longbridge segments, less $38.4 million of preferred dividends accrued and certain corporate/other income and expense items not attributed to either the investment portfolio or Longbridge segments.

2 Adjusted Distributable Earnings is a non-GAAP financial measure. See "Reconciliation of Net Income (Loss) to Adjusted Distributable Earnings" below for an explanation regarding the calculation of Adjusted Distributable Earnings. Represents $96.3 million of aggregate Adjusted Distributable Earnings from the investment portfolio and Longbridge segments, less $29.8 million of certain corporate/other items not attributed to either the investment portfolio or Longbridge segments.

3 Excludes borrowings collateralized by U.S. Treasury securities.

4 Total unencumbered assets is calculated in accordance with the definition of "Consolidated Unencumbered Assets" set forth in the indenture governing our 7.375% Senior Notes due September 30, 2030.

Financial Results

Investment Portfolio Segment

The investment portfolio segment generated net income of $77.6 million in the first quarter, consisting of $75.8 million from the credit strategy and $1.7 million from the Agency strategy.

Credit

The total adjusted long credit portfolio5 increased by 4% sequentially to $4.27 billion as of March 31, 2026. The increase was driven by purchases of non-QM loans, Agency-eligible loans, and residential transition loans; and a larger portfolio of retained RMBS. These increases were partially offset by the impact of loans sold into securitizations.

Key Highlights6:

•Overall positive performance driven by higher net interest income in the credit portfolio, and net realized and unrealized gains on non-QM loans and retained tranches, closed-end second lien loans and retained tranches, and Agency-eligible loans; along with unrealized gains on commercial REO, and certain other investments.

•Partially offsetting higher net interest income were net realized and unrealized losses on CLOs, non-Agency RMBS, non-performing and re-performing residential mortgage loans, and residential REO.

•Strong credit performance across our loan businesses, including sequentially lower 90-day delinquency rates and continued low life-to-date realized credit losses in both our residential and commercial loan portfolios.

•Excellent overall results from equity investments in loan originators.

During the quarter, the net interest margin7 on our credit portfolio increased modestly to 3.46% from 3.38%8, as slightly higher asset yields were partially offset by a slightly higher cost of funds. We continued to benefit from positive carry on our interest rate swap hedges, where we overall receive a higher floating rate and pay a lower fixed rate.

Agency

The long Agency RMBS portfolio decreased by 3% sequentially to $197.3 million as of March 31, 2026.

Key Highlights6:

•Positive results driven by net interest income and net gains on interest rate hedges, due to the increase in interest rates quarter over quarter. These gains were partially offset by net losses on our Agency RMBS, with spreads on many Agency RMBS wider during the quarter.

•Pay-ups on our specified pools increased to 0.83% as of March 31, 2026, from 0.79% as of December 31, 2025.

The net interest margin7 on our Agency portfolio (excluding the Catch-up Amortization Adjustment) decreased to 1.47% as of March 31, 2026, from 1.90%8 as of December 31, 2025, driven by a higher cost of funds. We continued to benefit from positive carry on our interest rate swap hedges, where we overall receive a higher floating rate and pay a lower fixed rate, but that benefit declined during the quarter, contributing to the higher cost of funds.

Longbridge Segment

The Longbridge segment reported net income of $57.5 million for the first quarter. The Longbridge portfolio (excluding non-retained tranches of consolidated securitization trusts) increased by 13% sequentially to $695.1 million as of March 31, 2026, driven by continued strong proprietary reverse mortgage loan origination volumes, partially offset by the impact of a securitization of proprietary reverse mortgage loans completed during the quarter. Longbridge originated $515.4 million of new loans during the quarter, which was a 52% increase from the same period in 2025.

Key Highlights6:

•Strong contribution from originations, supported by continued robust origination volumes and margins, and net gains related to the proprietary reverse mortgage loan securitization completed during the quarter.

•Positive contribution from servicing, reflecting: (i) strong tail securitization executions; (ii) a net gain on the HMBS MSR, driven primarily by tighter HMBS yield spreads; and (iii) steady base servicing net income.

•Income related to the settlement of a lawsuit, pursuant to which Longbridge received a payment of $17.0 million.

•Net gains on interest rate hedges.

5 Excludes non-retained tranches of consolidated securitization trusts.

6 Sector-level results include associated financing costs and hedging gains/losses where applicable.

7 Net interest margin represents the weighted average asset yield less the weighted average secured financing cost of funds on such assets. It also includes the effect of actual and accrued periodic payments on interest rate swaps used to hedge the assets.

8 Conformed to current period presentation.

Corporate/Other Summary

Results for the quarter also reflect a significant unrealized gain on our unsecured debt, driven by credit spread widening during the quarter, partially offset by an incentive fee accrued during the first quarter.

Longbridge Portfolio

Longbridge originates reverse mortgage loans, including (i) home equity conversion mortgage loans, or "HECMs," which are insured by the FHA, and (ii) "proprietary reverse mortgage loans," which are not insured by the FHA. HECMs are eligible for inclusion in GNMA-guaranteed HECM-backed MBS, or "HMBS." Upon securitization, the HECMs remain on our balance sheet under GAAP. We have securitized some of the proprietary reverse mortgage loans originated by Longbridge, and we have retained certain of the securitization tranches in compliance with credit risk retention rules. Longbridge has typically retained the MSRs associated with the loans it has originated. Longbridge also originates home equity lines of credit, or "HELOCs," designed for homeowners aged 62 or older.

Reconciliation of Net Income (Loss) to Adjusted Distributable Earnings

We calculate Adjusted Distributable Earnings as U.S. GAAP net income (loss) as adjusted for: (i) realized and unrealized gain (loss) on securities and loans, REO, mortgage servicing rights, financial derivatives (excluding periodic settlements on interest rate swaps), any borrowings carried at fair value, and foreign currency transactions; (ii) incentive fee to affiliate; (iii) Catch-up Amortization Adjustment (as defined below); (iv) non-cash equity compensation expense; (v) provision for income taxes; (vi) certain non-capitalized transaction costs; and (vii) other income or loss items that are of a non-recurring nature. For certain investments in unconsolidated entities, we include the relevant components of net operating income in Adjusted Distributable Earnings. The Catch-up Amortization Adjustment is a quarterly adjustment to premium amortization or discount accretion triggered by changes in actual and projected prepayments on our Agency RMBS (accompanied by a corresponding offsetting adjustment to realized and unrealized gains and losses). The adjustment is calculated as of the beginning of each quarter based on our then-current assumptions about cashflows and prepayments, and can vary significantly from quarter to quarter. Non-capitalized transaction costs include expenses, generally professional fees, incurred in connection with the acquisition of an investment or issuance of long-term debt. We also include in Adjusted Distributable Earnings, for all loans that we originate through Longbridge, any realized and unrealized gains (losses) on such loans up to the point of loan sale or securitization, net of sale or securitization costs; and any realized and unrealized gains (losses) on HECM buyout loans and REO related to Longbridge's servicing activities.

Adjusted Distributable Earnings is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure. We believe that the presentation of Adjusted Distributable Earnings provides information useful to investors, because: (i) we believe that it is a useful indicator of both current and projected long-term financial performance, in that it excludes the impact of certain current-period earnings components that we believe are less useful in forecasting long-term performance and dividend-paying ability; (ii) we use it to evaluate the effective net yield provided (a) by our investment portfolio, after the effects of financial leverage, and (b) by Longbridge, to reflect the earnings from its reverse mortgage origination and servicing operations; and (iii) we believe that presenting Adjusted Distributable Earnings assists investors in measuring and evaluating our operating performance, and comparing our operating performance to that of our residential mortgage REIT and mortgage originator peers. Please note, however, that: (I) our calculation of Adjusted Distributable Earnings may differ from the calculation of similarly titled non-GAAP financial measures by our peers, with the result that these non-GAAP financial measures might not be directly comparable; and (II) Adjusted Distributable Earnings excludes certain items that may impact the amount of cash that is actually available for distribution.

In addition, because Adjusted Distributable Earnings is an incomplete measure of our financial results and differs from net income (loss) computed in accordance with U.S. GAAP, it should be considered supplementary to, and not as a substitute for, net income (loss) computed in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

Furthermore, Adjusted Distributable Earnings is different from REIT taxable income. As a result, the determination of whether we have met the requirement to distribute at least 90% of our annual REIT taxable income (subject to certain adjustments) to our stockholders, in order to maintain our qualification as a REIT, is not based on whether we distributed 90% of our Adjusted Distributable Earnings.

In setting our dividends, our Board of Directors considers our earnings, liquidity, financial condition, REIT distribution requirements, and financial covenants, along with other factors that the Board of Directors may deem relevant from time to time.

The following table reconciles, for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, our Adjusted Distributable Earnings to the line on our Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations entitled Net Income (Loss), which we believe is the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure:
