Management Commentary
Commenting on the second quarter results, Robert E. Cauley, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, said, “During the latter part of
the second quarter of 2022 inflation data drove a material change in Federal Reserve (“Fed”) policy, interest rates and the outlook for
the economy. Specifically, the consumer price index (“CPI”) data for May, released in June, increased far more than market
expectations. Survey measures of inflation expectations, released on the same day, surged to multi-decade highs. The June CPI
reading was released in July and was again well above market expectations. Equally troubling, elevated inflation readings were very
broad based, implying inflationary pressures have clearly spread from just those sectors most exposed to COVID-19 related supply
constraints. This was the catalyst for the Fed to pivot even more forcefully than they did during late 2021/early 2022, and the Fed
raised the Fed Funds rate by 200 basis points collectively at the May, June and July meetings. The market expects the Fed to
continuing raising the Fed Funds rate by another 100 basis points by year-end. Increases in the Fed Funds rate are likely to affect
economic activity, and the Fed has acknowledged their actions may lead to a recession. Sectors of the economy most sensitive to
interest rates – such as housing – have already started to slow and other economic indicators have shown evidence of slowing as well.
The manufacturing sector of the economy has clearly begun to slow, and the labor market also has been impacted, as evidenced by
initial claims for unemployment in July of 2022 rising by approximately 94,000 above the cycle low reading reported in early March of
2022.

August 4, 2022
“The Fed pivot that occurred in mid-June led to meaningful widening for Agency RMBS spreads in the days that followed the
release of the inflation data and were near the extremes seen in March of 2020. This was particularly true for lower coupon fixed rate
Agency RMBS where Orchid’s portfolio is concentrated. The poor performance of Agency RMBS and risk assets generally led to
negative returns across the markets and to book value erosion for Orchid. However, while we have recorded significant mark-to-
market losses on our portfolio during the second quarter of 2022 and over the last three quarters, most of these losses are unrealized
and approximately 81.1% of the pass-through portfolio as of June 30, 2022, was acquired prior to the start of the fourth quarter of 2021.
“It appears the inflation data is sufficiently strong that the Fed sees the need for a more aggressive response, and the market
expects the Fed to continue to raise the Fed Funds rate and tighten financial conditions until inflation appears to moderate sufficiently.
The chances such tightening of financial conditions does not cause the economy to contract appear remote and, as stated above, we
have already seen evidence this has begun to occur. This appears to be the market’s view as well, as evidenced by the inversion of
the U.S. Treasury yield curve. It is possible we have already seen the highest levels in long-term U.S. Treasury yields for this cycle.
“If, as we expect, the economy slows over the next several quarters, the lack of any credit risk in the Agency RMBS market should
lead to relative outperformance for the sector given the very wide spreads available currently. Further, Orchid’s existing portfolio of
discount securities retains very favorable convexity, particularly in a decreasing rate environment as the duration, or rate sensitivity, of
the securities should not decline materially if rates were to decrease. We believe these two factors leave Orchid well positioned as we
move into the second half of 2022 and beyond. In fact, Agency RMBS have performed very well so far in the third quarter and have
reversed most of the widening that occurred in June of 2022.”
Details of Second Quarter 2022 Results of Operations
The Company reported net loss of $60.1 million for the three month period ended June 30, 2022, compared with net loss of $16.9
million for the three month period ended June 30, 2021. The Company decreased its Agency RMBS portfolio over the course of the first
six months of 2022, from $6.5 billion at December 31, 2021 to $3.9 billion at June 30, 2022. Interest income on the portfolio in the
second quarter was down approximately $6.6 million from the first quarter of 2022. The yield on our average MBS increased from
3.02% in the first quarter of 2022 to 3.31% for the second of 2022, repurchase agreement borrowing costs increased from 0.20% for
the first quarter of 2022 to 0.80% for the second quarter of 2022, and our net interest spread decreased from 2.82% in the first quarter
of 2022 to 2.51% in the second quarter of 2022.
Book value decreased by $0.47 per share in the second quarter of 2022. The decrease in book value reflects our net loss of $0.34
per share and the dividend distribution of $0.135 per share. The Company recorded net realized and unrealized losses of $0.46 per
share on Agency RMBS assets and derivative instruments, including net interest expense on interest rate swaps.

(1)
Effective duration of 5.900 indicates that an interest rate increase of 1.0% would be expected to cause a 5.900% decrease in the value of the
RMBS in the Company’s investment portfolio at June 30, 2022. An effective duration of 3.390 indicates that an interest rate increase of 1.0%
would be expected to cause a 3.390% decrease in the value of the RMBS in the Company’s investment portfolio at December 31, 2021. These
figures include the structured securities in the portfolio, but do not include the effect of the Company’s funding cost hedges. Effective duration
quotes for individual investments are obtained from The Yield Book, Inc.
Financing, Leverage and Liquidity
As of June 30, 2022, the Company had outstanding repurchase obligations of approximately $3,759.0 million with a net weighted
average borrowing rate of 1.36%. These agreements were collateralized by RMBS with a fair value, including accrued interest, of
approximately $3,939.4 million and cash pledged to counterparties of approximately $51.1 million. The Company’s leverage ratio at June
30, 2022 was 7.8 to 1. At June 30, 2022, the Company’s liquidity was approximately $233.7 million, consisting of
cash and cash
equivalents and unpledged RMBS (not including unsettled securities purchases). To enhance our liquidity even further, we may pledge
more of our structured RMBS as part of a repurchase agreement funding, but retain the 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 our outstanding borrowings under repurchase obligations at June 30, 2022.

Hedging
In connection with its interest rate risk management strategy, the Company economically hedges a portion of the cost of its
repurchase agreement funding against a rise in interest rates by entering into derivative financial instrument contracts. The Company has
not elected hedging treatment under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) in order to align the accounting treatment of
its derivative instruments with the treatment of its portfolio assets under the fair value option election. As such, all gains or losses on these
instruments are reflected in earnings for all periods presented. At June 30, 2022, such instruments were comprised of Treasury note (“T-
Note”) futures contracts, interest rate swap agreements, interest rate swaption agreements, interest rate caps and contracts to buy and sell
TBA securities.

The Company allocates capital to two RMBS sub-portfolios, the pass-through RMBS portfolio, consisting of mortgage pass-through
certificates issued by Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac or Ginnie Mae (the “GSEs”) and collateralized mortgage obligations (“CMOs”) issued
by the GSEs (“PT RMBS”), and the structured RMBS portfolio, consisting of interest-only (“IO”) and inverse interest-only (“IIO”)
securities. As of March 31, 2022, approximately 62% of the Company’s investable capital (which consists of equity in pledged PT
RMBS, available cash and unencumbered assets) was deployed in the PT RMBS portfolio. At June 30, 2022, the allocation to the PT
RMBS portfolio remained approximately 62%.
The tables below present the allocation of capital between the respective portfolios at June 30, 2022 and March 31, 2022, and the
return on invested capital for each sub-portfolio for the three month period ended June 30, 2022.

At June 30, 2022, there were outstanding repurchase agreement balances of $144.9 million secured by IO securities and $0.8 million secured
by IIO securities. We entered into these arrangements to generate additional cash available to meet margin calls on PT RMBS; therefore, we
have not considered these balances to be allocated to the structured securities strategy
.
(2)
At March 31, 2022, there were outstanding repurchase agreement balances of $157.1 million secured by IO securities
and $1.4 million secured
by IIO securities. We entered into these arrangements to generate additional cash available to meet margin calls on PT RMBS; therefore, we
have not considered these balances to be allocated to the structured securities strategy.
The return on invested capital in the PT RMBS and structured RMBS portfolios was approximately (19.7)% and 5.3%, respectively,
for the second quarter of 2022. The combined portfolio generated a return on invested capital of approximately (10.1)%.

Stock Offerings
On October 29, 2021, we entered into an equity distribution agreement (the “October 2021 Equity Distribution Agreement”) with
four sales agents pursuant to which we may offer and sell, from time to time, up to an aggregate amount of $250,000,000 of shares of
our common stock in transactions that are deemed to be “at the market” offerings and privately negotiated transactions. Through June
30, 2022, we issued a total of 15,835,700 shares under the October 2021 Equity Distribution Agreement for aggregate gross proceeds
of approximately $78.3 million, and net proceeds of approximately $77.0 million, after commissions and fees. We did not issue any
shares under the October 2021 Equity Distribution Agreement during the six months ended June 30, 2022.
Stock Repurchase Program
On July 29, 2015, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to 2,000,000 shares of our common stock.
The timing, manner, price and amount of any repurchases is determined by the Company in its discretion and is subject to economic
and market conditions, stock price, applicable legal requirements and other factors. The authorization does not obligate the Company
to acquire any particular amount of common stock and the program may be suspended or discontinued at the Company’s discretion
without prior notice. On February 8, 2018, the Board of Directors approved an increase in the stock repurchase program for up to an
additional 4,522,822 shares of the Company’s common stock. Coupled with the 783,757 shares remaining from the original 2,000,000
share authorization, the increased authorization brought the total authorization to 5,306,579 shares, representing 10% of the
Company’s then outstanding share count. On December 9, 2021, the Board of Directors approved an increase in the number of shares
of the Company’s common stock available in the stock repurchase program for up to an additional 16,861,994 shares, bringing the
remaining authorization under the stock repurchase program to 17,699,305 shares, representing approximately 10% of the Company’s
then outstanding shares of common stock. This stock repurchase program has no termination date.
From the inception of the stock repurchase program through June 30, 2022, the Company repurchased a total of 6,561,810 shares
at an aggregate cost of approximately $42.6 million, including commissions and fees, for a weighted average price of $6.49 per share.
During the three months ended June 30, 2022, the Company repurchased a total of 876,299 shares at an aggregate cost of
approximately $2.2 million, including commissions and fees, for a weighted average price of $2.53 per share.
