("Capstead"(together with its subsidiaries, “Capstead” or the"Company"“Company”) operates as a real estate investment trust("REIT"(“REIT”) earning income from investing in real estate-related assets on a leveraged basis and from other investment strategies. These investmentscurrently include,primarily consist of, but are not limited to,single-familyfinancial assets, specifically residential adjustable-rate mortgage("ARM"(“ARM”) securities issued by government-sponsored entities, either Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac or Ginnie Mae("(“AgencySecurities"Securities”). Capstead has also made limited investments in credit-sensitive commercial real estate-related assets, including the direct ownership of real estate. Management believes that such investments, when available at favorable prices and combined with the prudent use of leverage, can produce attractive risk-adjusted returns over the long term withlessrelatively low sensitivity to changes in interest rates.The earning capacity of Capstead’s financial asset portfolios is influenced by the overall size and composition of the portfolios, the relationship between short- and long-term interest rates
due largely(the “yield curve”) and the extent the Company continues to invest its liquidity in these portfolios. Although the Company has had success in recent quarters acquiring ARM securities at relatively attractive prices and runoff caused by mortgage prepayments has moderated considerably during the first quarter of 2004, runoff remains ahigher risk of default and reduced liquidity comparedchallenge tofixed-rate and medium-term Agency Securities. Capstead's investment portfolios declinedearnings generated by these portfolios. To thelast several years primarily because of high levelsextent the proceeds of mortgage prepayments anda lack of suitable investment opportunities at favorable prices. Consequently, in 2001 and again in January 2003 (with the payment of the fourth quarter 2002 common dividend), Capstead returned a significant portion of its equity capital to its common stockholders. To the extent proceeds of runoff or asset salesother maturities are not reinvested or cannot be reinvested at a rate of return on invested capital at least equal to therate previouslyreturn earned onthat capital, quarterlyprevious investments, earnings and common dividends maycontinue trending lower. The future size and composition of Capstead's investment portfolios will depend on market conditions, including levels of mortgage prepayments and the availability on a timely basis of suitable investments at favorable prices.decline.NOTE 2

--— NET INCOME PER COMMON SHAREBasic net income per common share is computed by dividing net income, after deducting preferred share dividends, by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted net income per common share is computed by dividing net income, after deducting preferred share dividends for antidilutive convertible preferred shares,
if any,by the weighted average number of common shares and common share equivalents outstanding, giving effect to dilutive stock options and dilutive convertible preferred shares.For dilutive net income per share purposes, the Series A and B preferred shares are considered dilutive whenever annualized basic net income per share exceeds each Series' annualized dividend divided by the conversion rate applicable for that period.The components of the computation of basic and diluted net income per share were as follows (in thousands, except per share data):

NOTE 4
--— MORTGAGE SECURITIES AND SIMILAR INVESTMENTSThe Company classifies its mortgage securities and similar investments by collateral type and interest rate characteristics. Agency Securities are AAA-rated and are considered to have limited credit risk. Non-agency securities consist of private mortgage pass-through securities originally formed prior to 1995 when the Company operated a mortgage conduit. These securities are backed
primarilybysingle-familyresidential mortgage loans whereby the related credit risk of the underlying loans is either borne by AAA-rated private mortgage insurers or by the Company("(“Non-agencySecurities"Securities”). Included inReceivables and other assetsas restricted cash at March 31, 2004 are $6.0 million in related special hazard (e.g. earthquake or mudslide-related losses) and bankruptcy reserve funds. Commercial mortgage securitizations generally have senior, mezzanine and subordinate classes of bonds with the lower bond classes providing credit enhancement to the more senior classes. Commercial mortgage-backed securities("CMBS"(“CMBS”) held by the Company as ofSeptember 30, 2003March 31, 2004 are mezzanine classes and therefore carry credit risk associated with the underlying pools of commercial mortgage loans that is mitigated by-7-subordinate bonds held by other investors. Commercial loans held by the Company as of September 30, 2003 consist of a loan to a joint venture that holds commercial real estate.The maturity of mortgage securities is directly affected by the rate of principal prepayments on the underlying loans.-7-
Fixed-rate investments have fixed rates of interest and initial expected weighted average lives of greater than five years. Adjustable-rate investments have interest rates that adjust at least annually to more current interest rates. For instance, mortgage loans underlying ARM securities either (i) adjust annually based on a specified margin over the one-year Constant Maturity U.S. Treasury Note Rate
("(“One-yearCMT"CMT”), (ii) adjust semiannually based on a specified margin over the six-month London Interbank Offered Rate("LIBOR"(“LIBOR”), or (iii) adjust monthly based on a specific margin over an index such as LIBOR or the Cost of Funds Index as published by the Eleventh District Federal Reserve Bank("COFI"(“COFI”). In addition, the terms of most ARM loans limit, subject to periodic and lifetime limits on the amount of such adjustments during any single interest rate adjustment period and over the life of the loan. CMBSand commercial loansheld as ofSeptember 30, 2003March 31, 2004 adjust monthly based on a specified margin over 30-day LIBOR.

Typically, principal payments on each series are made to each class in the order of their stated maturities so that no payment of principal is made on any class of bonds until all classes having an earlier stated maturity have been paid in full. The maturity of each CMO series is directly affected by the rate of principal prepayments on the related Pledged CMO Collateral. Each series is also subject to redemption provided that certain requirements specified in the related indenture have been met (referred to as
"Clean-up Calls"“Clean-up Calls”); therefore, the actual maturity of any series is likely to occur earlier than its stated maturity.

--— DISCLOSURES REGARDING FAIR VALUES OF DEBT SECURITIESEstimated fair values of debt securities
have beenwere determined using available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies; however, considerable judgment is required in interpreting market data to develop these estimates. In addition, fair values fluctuate on a daily basis. Accordingly, estimates presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that could be realized in a current market exchange. The use of different market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies may have a material effect on estimated fair values. The fair value of Agency Securities, Non-agency Securities and CMBS-11-
were estimated using either (i) quoted market prices when available, including quotes made by lenders in connection with designating collateral for repurchase arrangements, or (ii) offer prices for similar assets or market positions. The fair value of Pledged CMO Collateral was based on projected cash flows, after payment on the related CMOs, determined using market discount rates and prepayment assumptions. The maturity of mortgage assets is directly affected by the rate of principal payments on the underlying mortgage loans and, for Pledged CMO Collateral, Clean-up Calls of the remaining CMOs outstanding.

NOTE 13 -- COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES During 1998, twenty-four purported class action lawsuits were filed against Capstead and certain of its officers alleging, among other things, that the defendants violated federal securities laws by publicly issuing false and misleading statements and omitting disclosure of material adverse information regarding the Company's business. After these actions were consolidated and the court appointed a lead plaintiff group, an amended complaint was filed in October 2000. The amended complaint claims that as a result of alleged improper actions, the market prices of the Company's equity securities were artificially inflated during the period between April 17, 1997 and June 26, 1998 and seeks monetary damages in an undetermined amount. In February 2001, the Company and named officers responded to this amended complaint with motions to dismiss all allegations against the Company and the named officers. By order dated March 31, 2003, the court granted the Company and named officers' motions to dismiss and entered an order dismissing the amended complaint and denying the plaintiffs' request to further amend their complaint. In early November 2003, the plaintiff's opportunity to appeal this dismissal to the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals passed. With the dismissal of this case without appeal, the Company expects to recover from its insurance carrier a $500,000 deductible originally expensed in 1998 and 1999. This recovery will be recorded in Other Revenue when received.

MANAGEMENT'SMANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONSFINANCIAL CONDITION
OVERVIEWOverview
Capstead Mortgage Corporation
("Capstead"(“Capstead” or the"Company"“Company”) operates as a real estate investment trust("REIT"(“REIT”) earning income from investing in real estate-related assets on a leveraged basis and from other investment strategies. These investmentscurrently include,primarily consist of, but are not limited to,single-familyresidential adjustable-rate mortgage("ARM"(“ARM”) securities issued by government-sponsored entities, either Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac or Ginnie Mae("(“AgencySecurities"Securities”). The Company has also made limited investments in credit-sensitive commercial real estate-related assets, including the direct ownership of real estate. Management believes that such investments, when available at favorable prices and combined with the prudent use of leverage, can produce attractive risk-adjusted returns over the long term withlessrelatively low sensitivity to changes in interestrates due largely to a higher riskrates.The size and composition of
default and reduced liquidity compared to fixed-rate or medium-term Agency Securities. Capstead'sthe Company’s investment portfoliosdeclineddepend on thelastinvestment strategies being implemented by management and market conditions being experienced by the Company, including levels of mortgage prepayments and the availability of attractively priced investments. After several years of steadily declining mortgage securities portfolio balances, primarily because of high levels of mortgage prepayments and a lack ofsuitablecompelling investment opportunities, during the latter half of 2003 market conditions allowed for the acquisition of sufficient ARM securities atfavorable prices. Consequently,relatively attractive prices to more than offset portfolio runoff. This opportunity became available when long-term interest rates moved sharply higher in2001response to indications that the economy was recovering from a sustained period of economic weakness.Although this optimism proved premature and interest rates declined during the first quarter in response to weak job growth and other indications of economic weakness, the Company has been successful this quarter in acquiring sufficient ARM securities, again
in January 2003 (withat relatively attractive prices, to more than offset portfolio runoff. These acquisitions have allowed for thepaymentsequential growth of thefourth quarter 2002 common dividend), Capstead returned a significant portion of its equity capitalmortgage securities portfolio for the past three quarters and this trend is expected toits common stockholders. To the extent proceeds of runoff or asset sales are not reinvested, or cannot be reinvested, at a rate of returncontinue at leastequalthrough the second quarter of 2004. The Company intends to continue pursuing therate previouslyacquisition of attractively priced ARM securities, while also investigating other real estate-related opportunities.Subsequent to quarter-end, recent strong economic indicators have many believing the Federal Reserve could be forced to begin raising short-term interest rates later this year and long-term interest rates have moved higher in response. Although higher interest rates may create opportunities to acquire additional investments at attractive prices, higher short-term interest rates will increase the Company’s borrowing costs, thereby reducing financing spreads (the difference between the yields earned on
that capital, quarterlythese investments and the rates charged on related borrowings). Although rising borrowing costs can eventually be mitigated by ARM security yield increases, interest rates on the Company’s borrowings rise (and fall) almost immediately while ARM security yields change slowly by comparison because the underlying loans reset only once or twice a year and the amount of each reset can be limited or capped. Consequently, while the wide financing spreads Capstead has enjoyed in recent years have been the driving force behind the Company’s earnings andcommondividends, if short-term interest rates rise quickly, spreads willlikely continue trending lower. The future sizenarrow andcomposition of Capstead's investment portfoliosmargins earned on its ARM securities willdepend on market conditions, including levels of mortgage prepayments anddecline.-15-
Risk Factors

By July 2003, Fortress sold its investment in Capstead. Pursuant1940” are discussions of risk factors affecting Capstead’s financial condition and results of operations that are an integral part of this discussion and analysis. Readers are strongly urged toa management contract entered into in April 2000, Fortress provided the services of Mr. Wesley R. Edens as Capstead's chairmanconsider these factors while reading this document.Mortgage Securities and
chief executive and of other individuals as necessary to perform support services for Mr. Edens. On July 22, 2003 Mr. Edens resigned from his positions with Capstead and the management contract with Fortress was terminated. Robert I. Kauffman, an associate of Mr. Edens and a director since December 1999, also resigned effective July 22, 2003. Paul M. Low, one of Capstead's founders and a long-time member of the Board of Directors, succeeded Mr. Edens as Chairman. Andrew F. Jacobs, formerly Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, was promoted to Chief Executive Officer and President and elected to serve on the Board of Directors. Phillip A. Reinsch, Senior Vice President -- Control, was promoted to Chief Financial Officer. BOOK VALUE PER COMMON SHARESimilar InvestmentsAs of
September 30, 2003,March 31, 2004, theCompany's book value per common share was $7.05, a decline of $0.78 during the current quarter and $1.18 since December 31, 2002. Book value declined since year-end because of dividend payments in excess of quarterly net income (approximately $0.16 per share) and, more significantly, a reduction in the aggregate unrealized gain on the Company's investments (most of which are debt securities carried at fair value with changes in fair value reflected in stockholders' -16-equity) as a result of recent increases in interest rates and runoff caused by mortgage prepayments. This unrealized gain can be expected to continue to decline with runoff and to fluctuate with changes in interest rates and market liquidity, and such changes will largely be reflected in book value per common share. Book value will also be affected by other factors, including the level of dividend distributions and depreciation charges on net-leased real estate; however, temporary changes in fair values of investments not held in the form of debt or equity securities generally will not affect book value. MORTGAGE SECURITIES AND SIMILAR INVESTMENTS As of September 30, 2003,mortgage securities and similar investments portfolio consisted primarily of ARM AgencySecurities (see "NOTE 4" to the accompanying consolidated financial statements for discussion of how the Company classifies its mortgage securities and similar investments).Securities. Agency Securities are AAA-rated and are considered to have limited credit risk. Non-agency securities are private mortgage pass-through securities whereby the related credit risk of the underlying loans iseitherborne by AAA-rated private mortgage insurers or by the Company("(“Non-agencySecurities"Securities”).In connection with the formation of private mortgage pass-through securities prior to 1995, the Company was required to establish reserve funds available to pay special hazard (e.g. earthquake or mudslide-related losses) or certain bankruptcy costs. These securities were subsequently held as Non-agency Securities, CMO collateral or sold to third parties. Included in Receivables and other assets as restricted cash are $4.9 million in special hazard reserve funds and $1.2 million of bankruptcy reserve funds associated with $55 million and $57 million of related loans outstanding as of September 30, 2003, respectively.Commercial mortgage-backed securitizations generally have senior, mezzanine and subordinate classes of bonds with the lower classes providing credit enhancement to the more senior classes. Commercial mortgage-backed securities("CMBS"(“CMBS”) held by the Company atSeptember 30, 2003March 31, 2004 are mezzanine classes and therefore carry credit risk associated with the underlying pools of commercial mortgage loans that is mitigated by subordinate bonds held by other investors.Commercial loansMortgage securities held by
the Company at September 30, 2003 consist of a loan to a joint venture that holds commercial real estate (see "Risks Associated With Credit-Sensitive Investments"). Mortgage securitiesCapstead are financed under repurchase arrangements with investment banking firms pursuant to which specific securities are pledged as collateral.Capstead financed its commercial loan investment with a loan from a commercial bank.Should the Company acquireadditionalfinancial assets that are not mortgage-backed securities, similar financing arrangements with other parties, such as commercial banks, may be employed (see"Liquidity“Liquidity and CapitalResources"Resources”).The Company’s mortgage securities and similar investments portfolio rose during the first quarter of 2004 to $2.4 billion from $2.2 billion at December 31, 2003, representing the third straight quarter of portfolio growth after several years of declines. Acquisitions during the first quarter totaled $360 million, consisting almost exclusively of ARM Agency Securities. Runoff during the first quarter totaled $148 million, significantly less than the $225 million experienced during the fourth quarter of 2003, primarily reflecting lower levels of mortgage prepayments. Although mortgage prepayments moderated considerably during the first quarter of 2004, runoff caused by mortgage prepayments remains a
significantchallenge to earnings generated by theCompany'sCompany’s mortgage securities. The Company anticipates that runoff will be higher in the second quarter than in the first quarter due to lower prevailing mortgage rates in February and March before again declining to more moderate levels. The Company also securitized with Fannie Mae $53 million of its high coupon fixed-rate Non-Agency Securities in order to improve these securities’ financing spreads and liquidity.Although the Company has had continued success subsequent to quarter-end acquiring additional ARM securities
and similar investments. After experiencingsuch that it expects further portfoliodeclines to nearly $2.0 billion at June 30, 2003 from $2.4 billion at December 31, 2002,growth during thethirdsecond quarterthe Company had the opportunity to acquire $163 million inof 2004, there can be no assurance that attractively priced ARMAgency Securities at attractive prices after sharp increases in medium and long-term interest rates in July and August. In addition, during the third quarter Capstead transferred into this portfolio $121 million in fixed-rate collateral released from financed CMOs that the Company expectssecurities willearn improved financing spreads (the difference between yields earned on investments and the rates charged on related borrowings) than when financed by CMO bonds. Together, these additions more than offset third quarter runoff such that the portfolio ended the quarter at $2.1 billion. Prior to this third quarter activity, additions to this portfolio during 2003 were limited to $49 million of adjustable-rate collateral released from financed CMOs. Interest rates declined again in September and although management believes there maycontinue to beopportunities to acquire assets at attractive prices in the near future, such acquisitions may not be sufficient to replace runoff. That being said, runoff is expected to begin moderating in the fourth quarter as a higher interest rate environment has reduced, if not eliminated, the opportunity for homeowners to refinance their ARM loans into lower rate fixed-rate loans.available. To the extent the proceeds of mortgage-17-prepayments and other maturities are not reinvested or cannot be reinvested at a rate of return on invested capital at least equal to the return earned on previous investments, quarterlyearnings and common dividends maylikely continue trending lower.decline.

CMO
COLLATERAL AND INVESTMENTSCollateral and InvestmentsSince exiting the residential mortgage loan conduit business in 1995, Capstead has maintained finance subsidiaries with capacity to issue CMOs and other securitizations backed by
single-familyresidential mortgage loans.From time to time, the Company may purchase mortgage loans from originators or conduits, place these loans into private mortgage pass-through securities and issue CMOs or other securities backed by these securities.TheCompany may or may not retain a significant residual economic interest in these securitizations. Credit risk associated with pledgedlast CMOcollateral is borne by AAA-rated private mortgage insurers or by subordinated bonds usually sold to investors. With recent redemptions of previously-issued CMOs, the Company no longer has credit risk held in the form of subordinated bonds associated with outstanding pledged CMO collateral. Most of the Company's securitizations have been afforded financing accounting treatment with the related collateral recorded as pledged CMO collateral and the outstanding bonds recorded as CMO liabilities (referred to as "financed CMOs"). Other securitizationsissued by the Company was in19932000 andprior were treated as sales transactions (referred to as "sold CMOs").

Results of Capital Raising Activity
Between February 2 and March 30, 2004, the Company sold 791,900 common shares into the open market on a limited basis and such sales may resume during the second quarter. As of quarter-end, Capstead raised $13.4 million of new common equity under this program at an average price of $16.94 per share, after expenses. The proceeds from these issuances have been invested in attractively-priced ARM securities.
Book Value per Common Share
As of March 31, 2004, the Company’s book value per common share was $7.38, an increase of $0.70 since year-end. This increase is largely attributable to the issuance of new capital (approximately $0.55 per share), offset somewhat by dividend payments in excess of quarterly net income (approximately $0.04 per share). In addition, lower prevailing interest rates at quarter-end resulted in an increase in the aggregate unrealized gain on the Company’s investments (most of which are debt securities carried at fair value with
Owning Real Estate")changes in fair value reflected in stockholders’ equity).UTILIZATION OF CAPITAL AND POTENTIAL LIQUIDITYThis unrealized gain can be expected to fluctuate with changes in portfolio size and composition as well as changes in interest rates and market liquidity, and such changes will largely be reflected in book value per common share. Book value will also be affected by other factors, including capital stock transactions and the level of dividend distributions relative to quarterly net income; however, temporary changes in fair values of investments not carried at fair value on the Company’s balance sheet generally will not affect book value.Utilization of Capital and Potential Liquidity

The Company generally finances its mortgage securities and similar investments with well-established investment banking firms using repurchase arrangements and similar borrowings. Assuming potential liquidity is available, these borrowings can be increased or decreased on a daily basis to meet cash flow requirements and otherwise manage capital resources efficiently. CMO collateral is pledged to secure CMO bonds. Real estate held for lease is financed by long-term borrowings. Liquidity is affected by, among other things, changes in market value of assets pledged under
repurchase and similarborrowing arrangements, principal prepayments and general conditions in the investment banking, mortgage finance and real estate industries. Future levels of financial leverage will be dependent upon many factors, including the size and composition of theCompany'sCompany’s investment portfolios (see"Liquidity“Liquidity and CapitalResources" and "Effects of Interest Rate Changes"Resources”).-20-

The earning capacity of
Capstead'sCapstead’s financial asset portfolios is influenced by the overall size and composition of the portfolios, the relationship between short- and long-term interest rates (the"yield curve"“yield curve”) and the extent the Company continues to invest its liquidity in these portfolios. Net margins on financial assets and related financing spreads havedeclined steadily since peaking in early 2002 after havingbenefited significantly the past several years from actions taken by the Federal Reserve, particularly during 2001, toaggressivelylower short-term interest rates, which resulted in significantly lower interest rates on theCompany'sCompany’s borrowings. However, lower interest rates have also led to declining yields on theCompany'sCompany’s adjustable-rate assets-21-and more significantly,declining portfolio balances primarily caused by relatively high mortgage prepayment rates.Net margins andWhile financing spreadsmayare expected to continue declining as yields on theCompany'sCompany’s ARM securities continue resetting lower,particularlythe Company has had success recently in replacing runoff that, if it continues, should slow declines in net margins provided borrowing rates stay at current levels.

Capstead'sCapstead’s primary sources of funds are borrowings under repurchase arrangements and monthly principal and interest payments on mortgage securities and similar investments. Other sources of funds include proceeds from other borrowing arrangements, proceeds from asset sales, unrestricted payments received on real estate held for lease and
excess cash flows on CMO collateral and investments.proceeds from equity offerings. The Company generally uses its liquidity to pay down borrowings under repurchase arrangements to reduce borrowingcosts.costs and otherwise efficiently manage its capital. Because the level of these borrowings can be adjusted on a daily basis, the level of unrestricted cash and cash equivalents carried on the balance sheet is less important than the Company’s potential liquidity available under its borrowing arrangements. The table included under"Financial“Financial Condition--— Utilization of Capital and PotentialLiquidity"Liquidity” and accompanying discussion illustrates additional funds potentially available to the Company as ofSeptember 30, 2003.March 31, 2004, as adjusted for liquidity reserves. The Company currently believes that it has ample liquidity and capital resources available for the acquisition of additional investments, repayments on borrowings and the payment of cash dividends as required forCapstead'sCapstead’s continued qualification as a REIT. It is theCompany'sCompany’s policy to remain strongly capitalized and conservatively leveraged.Borrowings under repurchase arrangements secured by Agency Securities and Non-agency Securities generally have maturities of less than 31
days.days, although from time to time the Company may enter into longer-term arrangements. These borrowings totaledapproximately $1.9$2.1 billion atSeptember 30, 2003.March 31, 2004. Capstead has uncommitted repurchase facilities with investment banking firms to finance these investments, subject to certain conditions. Interest rates on these borrowings are generally based on 30-day London Interbank Offered Rate("LIBOR"(“LIBOR”)rates(or a corresponding benchmark rate for longer-term arrangements) and related terms and conditions are negotiated on a transaction-by-transaction basis. Amounts available to be borrowed under these arrangements are dependent upon the fair value of the securities pledged as collateral, which fluctuates with changes in interest rates, credit quality and liquidity conditions within the investment banking, mortgage finance and real estateindustries (see "Effects of Interest Rate Changes").industries.Borrowings under repurchase arrangements with investment banking firms secured by CMBS
and from commercial banks secured by investments in commercial loansmore closely match the interest rate adjustment features of these investments such that the Company anticipates it can earn more consistent financing spreads and, as a result, experience less interest rate volatility than experienced with investments in Agency Securities. These borrowings, which generally have longer initial maturities than borrowings secured by Agency Securities and may feature renewal options, totaledapproximately $95$69 million atSeptember 30, 2003.March 31, 2004.

adjustable-rate tax-exempt bonds. Under the terms of the Lease, changes in interest rates on this debt are the responsibility of the lessee and as such, have
noa limited effect on theCompany'sCompany’s liquidity.Beginning in February 2004 the Company began selling common shares into the open market on a limited basis and such sales may resume during the second quarter. The proceeds from future issuances, if any, together with Capstead’s existing liquidity,

INTEREST RATE SENSITIVITY ON OPERATING RESULTSInterest Rate Sensitivity on Operating Results
Capstead performs earnings sensitivity analysis using an income simulation model to estimate the effects that specific interest rate changes can reasonably be expected to have on future earnings. All financial assets and Derivatives held are included in this analysis. The sensitivity of components ofOther revenue (expense)to changes in interest rates is included as well, although no asset sales are assumed. Because under the terms of the Lease
Brookdalethe lessee is responsible for changes in related debt service requirements, earnings from theCompany'sCompany’s investment in net-leased real estate are generally not affected by changes in interest rates. The model incorporates management assumptions regarding the level of mortgage prepayments for a given interest rate change using market-based estimates of prepayment speeds for purposes of amortizing investment and liability premiums and discounts. These assumptions are developed through a combination of historical analysis and future expected pricing behavior.As of September 30, 2003,Capstead had the following estimated earnings sensitivity profile as of March 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003, respectively (dollars in thousands):

Note that the projected 12-month earnings change is predicated on acquisitions of similar assets sufficient to replace runoff. There can be no guarantee that suitable investments will be available for purchase at attractive prices or if investments made will behave in the same fashion as assets currently held.Income simulation modeling is the primary tool used to assess the direction and magnitude of changes in net margins on financial assets resulting from changes in interest rates. Key assumptions in the model include mortgage prepayment rates, changes in market conditions, and
management'smanagement’s financial capital plans. These assumptions are inherently uncertain and,as a result,therefore, the model cannot precisely estimate-24-net margins or precisely predict the impact of higher or lower interest rates on net margins. Actual results will differ from simulated results due to timing, magnitude and frequency of interest rate changes and other changes in market conditions, management strategies and other factors. GENERAL DISCUSSION OF EFFECTS OF INTEREST RATE CHANGES-24-
General Discussion of Effects of Interest Rate Changes
Changes in interest rates may affect
Capstead'sCapstead’s earnings in various ways. Earnings currently depend, in part, on the difference between the interest received on mortgage securities and similar investments, and the interest paid on related borrowings, which are generally based on 30-day LIBOR. The resulting financing spread may be reduced or even turn negative in a rising short-term interest rate environment. Because the mortgage securities and similar investments portfolio consists primarily of ARM securities, the risk of rising short-term interest rates is offset to some extent by increases in the rates of interest earned on the underlying ARM loans, which resetperiodicallyonce or twice a year based on underlying indices,(generally one-year CMT rates).subject to periodic and lifetime limits, referred to as caps. The Company’s ARM securities featured the following average coupon rate, and average periodic and lifetime caps as of March 31, 2004 (dollars in thousands):
Average Average Average ARM Type Basis * Coupon Rate Periodic Cap Lifetime Cap Agency Securities: Fannie Mae/Freddie Mac $ 1,295,186 3.56 % 1.744 % 11.239 % Ginnie Mae 839,714 4.17 1.000 10.373 Non-agency Securities 72,521 4.01 1.727 11.243
$ 2,207,421 3.81 1.460 10.910
* Basis represents the Company’s investment before unrealized gains and losses. Since only a portion of the ARM loans underlying these securities reset each month subject to periodic and
the terms of an ARM loan generally limit the amount of such increases during any single interest rate adjustment period and over the life of the loan,lifetime caps, interest rates on borrowings can rise to levels that may exceed the interest rates on the underlying loans, contributing to lower or even negative financing spreads. At other times, declines in these indices during periods of relatively low short-term interest rates will negatively effect yields on ARM securities as the underlying ARM loans reset at lower rates. If declines in these indices exceed declines in theCompany'sCompany’s borrowing rates, earningscouldwould be adversely affected. The Company may extend maturity dates on a portion of its short-term borrowings or invest in Derivatives from time to time as a hedge against rising interestrates on a portion of its short-term borrowings. At September 30, 2003,rates. Subsequent to quarter-end, the Companydidentered into several longer maturity repurchase arrangements totaling $200 million with maturities ranging from one and one-half to two years. As of April 30, 2004, the Company does not own any Derivatives for this purpose.Another effect of changes in interest rates is that as long-term interest rates decrease, the rate of principal prepayments on mortgage loans underlying mortgage securities and similar investments generally increases. During periods of relatively low interest rates, prolonged periods of high prepayments can significantly reduce the expected life of these investments; therefore, the actual yields realized can be lower due to faster amortization of premiums. Further, to the extent the proceeds of prepayments are not reinvested or cannot be reinvested at a rate of
interestreturn at least equal to the rate previously earned on that capital, earnings may be adversely affected. There can be no assurance that suitable investments at attractive pricing will be available on a timely basis to replace runoff as it occurs or that the current composition of investments (consisting primarily of ARM Agency Securities) will be maintained.A change in interest rates also impacts earnings recognized from CMO collateral and investments, which currently consist primarily of fixed-rate CMO residuals. During periods of relatively low mortgage interest rates, prepayments on the underlying mortgage loans generally will be higher, accelerating the amortization of collateral and bond premiums. Conversely, if mortgage interest rates rise significantly above interest rates on the collateral, principal prepayments will typically diminish, improving the overall return on an investment in a fixed-rate CMO residual because of an increase in time over which the Company receives positive net cash flows and can amortize remaining collateral and bond premiums.Capstead periodically sells assets, which may increase income volatility because of the recognition of transactional gains or losses. Such sales may become attractive as asset values fluctuate with changes in interest rates. At other times, asset sales may become prudent to shift the
Company'sCompany’s investment focus. During periods of rising interest rates or contracting market liquidity, asset values can decline, leading to increased margin calls and reducing theCompany'sCompany’s liquidity. A margin call means that a lender requires a borrower to pledge additional collateral to re-establish the agreed-upon ratio of the value of the collateral to the amount of the borrowing. If the Company is unable or unwilling to pledge additional collateral, lenders can liquidate the collateral under adverse market conditions, likely resulting in losses.-25-
RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH CREDIT-SENSITIVE INVESTMENTS
Commercial mortgage assets may be viewed as exposing an investor to greater risk of loss than residential mortgage assets since such assets are typically secured by larger loans to fewer obligors than residential mortgage assets. Commercial property values and related net operating income are often subject to volatility, and net operating income may be sufficient or insufficient to cover debt service on the related mortgage loan at any given time. The repayment of loans secured by income-producing properties is typically dependent upon the successful operation of the related real estate project and the ability of the applicable property to produce net operating income rather than upon the liquidation value of the underlying real estate. Even when the current net operating income is sufficient to cover debt service, there can be no assurance that this will continue to be the case in the future.
Additionally, commercial properties may not be readily convertible to alternative uses if such properties were to become unprofitable due to competition, age of improvements, decreased demand, regulatory changes or other factors. The conversion of commercial properties to alternate uses often requires substantial capital expenditures, which may or may not be available.
The availability of credit for commercial mortgage loans may be dependent upon economic conditions in the markets where such properties are located, as well as the willingness and ability of lenders to make such loans. The availability of funds in the credit markets fluctuates and there can be no assurance that the availability of such funds will increase above, or will not contract below current levels. In addition, the availability of similar commercial properties, and the competition for available credit, may affect the ability of potential purchasers to obtain financing for the acquisition of properties. This could effect the repayment of commercial mortgages.
Credit-sensitive residential mortgage assets differ from commercial mortgage assets in several important ways yet can still carry substantial credit risk. Residential mortgage securities typically are secured by smaller loans to more obligors than CMBS, thus spreading the risk of mortgagor default. However, most of the mortgages supporting credit-sensitive residential securities are made to homeowners that do not qualify for Agency loan programs for reasons including loan size, financial condition, or work or credit history that may be indicative of higher risk of default than loans qualifying for such programs. As with commercial mortgages, in instances of default the Company may incur losses if proceeds from sales of the underlying residential collateral are less than the unpaid principal balances of the residential mortgage loans and related foreclosure costs. However, with residential mortgages this risk may be mitigated by various forms of credit enhancements including, but not limited to, primary mortgage insurance.
Through the process of securitizing both commercial and residential mortgages, credit risk can be heightened or minimized. Senior classes in multi-class securitizations generally have first priority over cash flows from a pool of mortgages and, as a result, carry the least risk, highest investment ratings and the lowest yields. Typically, a securitization will also have mezzanine classes and subordinated classes. Mezzanine classes will generally have lower credit ratings, higher yields and may have average lives that are longer than the senior classes. Subordinate classes are junior in the right to receive cash flow from the underlying mortgages, thus providing credit enhancement to the senior and mezzanine classes. As a result, subordinated securities will have even lower credit ratings and higher yields because of the elevated risk of credit loss inherent in these securities.
The availability of capital from external sources to finance investments in credit-sensitive commercial and residential mortgage assets may be diminished during periods of mortgage finance market illiquidity. Additionally, if market conditions deteriorate resulting in substantial declines in value of these assets, sufficient capital may not be available to support the continued ownership of such investments, requiring these assets to be sold at a loss.

RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH OWNING REAL ESTATE
The direct ownership of commercial real estate involves a number of risks. With its first acquisition of real estate, Capstead has attempted to mitigate these risks by entering into a long-term
"net-lease"“net-lease” arrangement whereby the lessee is responsible for the ongoing operation and management of the properties and for paying all expenses associated with the operation of the properties. Although reduced by this net-lease arrangement, risks of ownership remain, including:o The risk that changes in economic conditions or real estate markets may adversely affect the value of the properties. o During inflationary periods, which are generally accompanied by rising interest rates, increases in operating costs and borrowing rates may be greater than increases in lessee revenues from operating properties. Over an extended period of time, this could result in lessee defaults. o The risk that a deterioration of local conditions could adversely affect the ability of a lessee to profitably operate a property. For instance, an oversupply of senior living properties could hamper the leasing of senior living units at favorable rates. This could ultimately affect the value of the properties. o Changes in tax, zoning or other laws could make properties less attractive or less profitable. o An owner cannot be assured that lessees will elect to renew their leases when the terms expire. If a lessee does not renew its lease or otherwise defaults on its lease obligations, there is no assurance the owner can obtain a substitute lessee on acceptable terms. If the owner cannot obtain another qualified operator to lease a property, the owner may be required to modify the property for a different use, which may involve significant capital expenditures and delays in re-leasing the property. o The risk that lessees will not perform under their leases, reducing the owner's income from the leases or requiring the owner to assume costs (such as real estate taxes, insurance, utilities and maintenance) that are the lessees'

In the case of special-purpose real estate such as senior living facilities, compliance with licensing requirements could complicate or delay the transfer of operational control of such properties. This could lead to a significant cash flow burden for the owner to service the debt and otherwise maintain the properties. o Net-leases generally require the lessee to carry comprehensive liability, casualty, workers' compensation and rental loss insurance. The required coverage is typical of the type, and amount, customarily obtained by an owner of similar properties. However, there are some types of losses, such as catastrophic acts of nature, for which insurance cannot be obtained at a commercially reasonable cost. If there is an uninsured loss or a loss in excess of insurance limits, the owner could lose both the revenues generated by the affected property and the capital invested in the property. The owner would, however, remain obligated to repay any mortgage indebtedness or other obligations related to the property. o Investments in real estate are subject to various federal, state and local regulatory requirements including the Americans with Disabilities Act (the "ADA"). The ADA requires that public accommodations reasonably accommodate individuals with disabilities and that new construction or alterations be made to commercial facilities to conform to accessibility guidelines. Failure to comply with the ADA can result in injunctions, fines, and damage awards to private parties and additional capital expenditures to remedy noncompliance.

with future requirements may involve significant unanticipated expenditures. Although typically these expenditures would be the responsibility of the lessee under the terms of net-leases, if lessees fail to perform these obligations, the owner may be required to do so. o Under federal, state and local environmental laws, the owner may be required to investigate and clean up any release of hazardous or toxic substances or petroleum products at its properties, regardless of its knowledge or actual responsibility, simply because of current or past ownership of the real estate. If unidentified environmental problems arise, the owner may have to make substantial payments, which could adversely affect cash flow and the ability to make distributions to stockholders. This is so because: 1. The owner may have to pay for property damage and for investigation and clean-up costs incurred in connection with the contamination. 2. The law may impose clean-up responsibility and liability regardless of whether the owner or operator knew of or caused the contamination. Even if more than one person is responsible for the contamination, each person who shares legal liability under environmental laws may be held responsible for all of the clean-up costs. 3. Governmental entities and third parties may sue the owner or operator of a contaminated site for damages and costs.

In investigating the acquisition of real estate, environmental studies are typically performed to establish the existence of any contamination. In addition, net-leases generally require lessees to operate properties in compliance with environmental laws and to indemnify the owner against environmental liability arising from the operation of such properties.
oAn owner may desire to sell a property in the future because of changes in market conditions or poor lessee performance or to avail itself of other opportunities. An owner may also be required to sell a property in the future to meet debt obligations or avoid a default. Unlike investments in mortgage securities, real estate cannot always be sold quickly, and there can be no assurance that the properties can be sold at a favorable price or that a prospective buyer will view existing lease or operating arrangements favorably. In addition, a property may require restoration or modification before it is sold.INVESTMENT COMPANY ACT OF 1940
The Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”), exempts entities that are primarily engaged in the business of purchasing or otherwise acquiring mortgages and other liens on, and interests in, real estate. Capstead intends to conduct its business so as not to become regulated as an investment company under the Investment Company Act. If the Company fails to qualify for this exemption, its ability to use leverage would be substantially reduced and it would be unable to conduct its business as described herein.
Under the current interpretation of the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), in order to qualify for this exemption a REIT must maintain at least 55% of its assets directly in qualifying real estate interests. Mortgage-backed securities that do not represent all of the certificates issued with respect to an underlying pool of mortgages (“Non-whole Pool Securities”) may be treated as separate from the underlying mortgage loans and, thus, may not qualify for purposes of the 55% requirement. Therefore, the provisions of the Investment Company Act limit ownership of these mortgage-backed securities.
-28-
In satisfying the 55% requirement under the Investment Company Act, a REIT may treat mortgage-backed securities issued with respect to an underlying pool to which it holds all issued certificates (“Whole Pool Securities”) as qualifying real estate interests. If the SEC or its staff adopts a contrary interpretation of such treatment, the REIT could be required to sell a substantial amount of Non-whole Pool Securities or other non-qualified assets under potentially adverse market conditions. Further, in order to ensure continued qualification for the exemption under the Investment Company Act, a REIT might be precluded from acquiring Non-whole Pool Securities even if their yield is higher than the yield of Whole Pool Securities. These factors may lower earnings.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
AND ESTIMATES Management'sManagement’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations is based upon
Capstead'sCapstead’s consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires the use of estimates and judgments that can affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities (including contingencies), revenues and expenses as well as related disclosures. These estimates are based on available internal and market information and appropriate valuation methodologies believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the expected useful lives and carrying values of assets and liabilities which can materially affect the determination of net income and book value per common share. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.Management believes the following are critical accounting policies in the preparation of
Capstead'sCapstead’s consolidated financial statements that involve the use of estimates requiring considerable judgment:o Amortization of Premiums and Discounts on Financial Assets and Borrowings -- Premiums and discounts on financial assets and borrowings are recognized in earnings as adjustments to interest income or interest expense by the interest method over the estimated lives of the related assets or -28-borrowings. For most of Capstead's financial assets, and for its CMO borrowings, estimates and judgments related to future levels of mortgage prepayments are critical to this determination (see "Effects of Interest Rate Changes"). o Fair Value and Impairment Accounting for Financial Assets -- Most of Capstead's mortgage securities and similar investments portfolio and a small portion of its CMO collateral and investments portfolio are classified as held available-for-sale and recorded at fair value on the balance sheet with unrealized gains and losses recorded in stockholders' equity as a component of Accumulated other comprehensive income. As such, these unrealized gains and losses enter into the calculation of book value per common share. Generally, gains or losses are recognized in earnings only if sold; however, if a decline in fair value of an individual asset below its amortized cost occurs that is determined to be other than temporary, the difference between amortized cost and fair value would be included in Other revenue (expense) as an impairment charge. Considerable judgment is required interpreting market data to develop estimated fair values, particularly in circumstances of deteriorating credit quality and market liquidity (see "NOTE 10" to the accompanying consolidated financial statements for discussion of how Capstead values its financial assets, "Risks of Interest Rate Changes" and "Risks Associated with Credit-Sensitive Investments"). o Depreciation and Impairment Accounting for Real Estate held for Lease -- Real estate is carried at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of buildings, equipment and fixtures. If a significant adverse event or change in circumstances occurs, management would assess if the values of the Company's real estate properties have become impaired. If estimated operating cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges) of a property over its remaining useful life are less than its net carrying value, the difference between net carrying value and fair value would be included in Other revenue (expense) as an impairment charge. Considerable judgment is required in determining useful lives of components of real estate properties and in estimating operating cash flows, particularly during periods of changing circumstances (see "Risks Associated with Owning Real Estate"
• Amortization of Premiums and Discounts on Financial Assets and Borrowings— Premiums and discounts on financial assets and borrowings are recognized in earnings as adjustments to interest income or interest expense by the interest method over the estimated lives of the related assets or borrowings.
