Organization and Operations [Abstract] | |
Organization and Operations | Organization and Operations Two Harbors Investment Corp., or the Company, is a Maryland corporation investing in, financing and managing Agency residential mortgage-backed securities, or Agency RMBS, non-Agency securities, mortgage servicing rights, or MSR, and other financial assets. The Company’s Chief Investment Officer manages the investment portfolio as a whole and resources are allocated and financial performance is assessed on a consolidated basis. The Company is externally managed and advised by PRCM Advisers LLC, or PRCM Advisers, which is a subsidiary of Pine River Capital Management L.P., or Pine River. The Company’s common stock is listed on the NYSE under the symbol “TWO”. The Company was incorporated on May 21, 2009, and commenced operations as a publicly traded company on October 28, 2009, upon completion of a merger with Capitol Acquisition Corp., or Capitol, which became a wholly owned indirect subsidiary of the Company as a result of the merger. The Company has elected to be treated as a real estate investment trust, or REIT, as defined under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the Code, for U.S. federal income tax purposes. As long as the Company continues to comply with a number of requirements under federal tax law and maintains its qualification as a REIT, the Company generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income taxes to the extent that the Company distributes its taxable income to its stockholders on an annual basis and does not engage in prohibited transactions. However, certain activities that the Company may perform may cause it to earn income which will not be qualifying income for REIT purposes. The Company has designated certain of its subsidiaries as taxable REIT subsidiaries, or TRSs, as defined in the Code, to engage in such activities. On June 28, 2017, the Company completed the contribution of its portfolio of commercial real estate assets to Granite Point Mortgage Trust Inc., or Granite Point, a newly formed Maryland corporation intended to qualify as a REIT, externally managed and advised by Pine River, and focused on directly originating, investing in and managing senior floating-rate commercial mortgage loans and other debt and debt-like commercial real estate investments. The Company contributed its equity interests in its wholly owned subsidiary, TH Commercial Holdings LLC, to Granite Point and, in exchange for its contribution, received approximately 33.1 million shares of common stock of Granite Point, which represented approximately 76.5% of the outstanding stock of Granite Point upon completion of the initial public offering, or IPO, of its common stock on June 28, 2017. On November 1, 2017, the Company distributed, on a pro rata basis, the 33.1 million shares of Granite Point common stock that it acquired in connection with the contribution to stockholders holding shares of Two Harbors common stock outstanding as of the close of business on October 20, 2017. On April 26, 2018, the Company announced that it had entered into a definitive merger agreement pursuant to which the Company would acquire CYS Investments, Inc., or CYS, a Maryland corporation investing in primarily Agency RMBS and treated as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes. The transaction was approved by the stockholders of both the Company and CYS on July 27, 2018, and the merger was completed on July 31, 2018, at which time CYS became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. In exchange for all of the shares of CYS common stock outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the merger, the Company issued approximately 72.6 million new shares of common stock, as well as aggregate cash consideration of $15.0 million , to CYS common stockholders. In addition, the Company issued 3 million shares of newly classified Series D cumulative redeemable preferred stock and 8 million |

Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies | Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies Consolidation and Basis of Presentation The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of all subsidiaries; inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated. The accounting and reporting policies of the Company conform to U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or U.S. GAAP. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. All per share amounts, common shares outstanding and restricted shares for all prior periods presented have been adjusted on a retroactive basis to reflect the Company’s one-for-two reverse stock split effected on November 1, 2017 (refer to Note 16 - Stockholders’ Equity for additional information). Due to its controlling ownership interest in Granite Point through November 1, 2017, the Company consolidated Granite Point on its financial statements. Effective November 1, 2017 (the date the 33.1 million shares of Granite Point common stock were distributed to the Company’s common stockholders), the Company no longer had a controlling interest in Granite Point and, therefore, deconsolidated Granite Point and its subsidiaries from its financial statements and reclassified all of Granite Point’s prior period assets, liabilities and results of operations to discontinued operations. The Company retains debt securities and excess servicing rights purchased from securitization trusts sponsored by either third parties or the Company’s subsidiaries. The securitization trusts are considered variable interest entities, or VIEs, for financial reporting purposes and, thus, are reviewed for consolidation under the applicable consolidation guidance. Whenever the Company has both the power to direct the activities of a trust that most significantly impact the entities’ performance, and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits of the entities that could be significant, the Company consolidates the trust. During the majority of 2017, the Company retained the most subordinate security in each of the securitization trusts, which gave the Company the power to direct the activities of the trusts that most significantly impact the trusts’ performance and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits of the securitization trusts that could be significant. As a result, the Company consolidated all of the securitization trusts, including the underlying mortgage loans held by the trusts (residential mortgage loans held-for-investment) and the associated debt (collateralized borrowings), on its consolidated balance sheet. During the fourth quarter of 2017, the Company sold all of the retained subordinated securities thereby removing the Company’s power to direct the activities of the trusts and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits of the securitization trusts. As a result, the securitization trusts are no longer consolidated on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet and the remaining retained securities are included within non-Agency available-for-sale, or AFS, securities. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make a number of significant estimates. These include estimates of fair value of certain assets and liabilities, amount and timing of credit losses, prepayment rates, the period of time during which the Company anticipates an increase in the fair values of real estate securities sufficient to recover unrealized losses in those securities, and other estimates that affect the reported amounts of certain assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of certain revenues and expenses during the reported period. It is likely that changes in these estimates ( e.g. , valuation changes due to supply and demand, credit performance, prepayments, interest rates, or other reasons) will occur in the near term. The Company’s estimates are inherently subjective in nature and actual results could differ from its estimates and the differences may be material. Significant Accounting Policies Available-for-Sale Securities, at Fair Value The Company invests primarily in mortgage pass-through certificates, collateralized mortgage obligations and other residential mortgage-backed securities representing interests in or obligations backed by pools of mortgage loans (collectively “Agency RMBS”) issued by the Federal National Mortgage Association, or Fannie Mae, the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation, or Freddie Mac, and the Government National Mortgage Association, or Ginnie Mae, or collectively, the government sponsored entities, or GSEs. The Company also invests in securities that are not issued by the GSEs, or non-Agency securities, and, from time to time, U.S. Treasuries. The Company classifies its Agency RMBS and non-Agency securities, excluding inverse interest-only Agency securities classified as derivatives for purposes of U.S. GAAP, as AFS, investments. Although the Company generally intends to hold most of its investment securities until maturity, it may, from time to time, sell any of its investment securities as part of its overall management of its portfolio. Accordingly, the Company classifies all of its securities as AFS, including its interest-only strips, which represent the Company’s right to receive a specified portion of the contractual interest flows of specific Agency or non-Agency securities. All assets classified as AFS, excluding Agency interest-only mortgage-backed securities, are reported at estimated fair value with unrealized gains and losses, excluding other than temporary impairments, included in accumulated other comprehensive income, on an after-tax basis. On July 1, 2015, the Company elected the fair value option for Agency interest-only securities acquired on or after such date. All Agency interest-only securities acquired on or after July 1, 2015 are carried at estimated fair value with changes in fair value, excluding other than temporary impairments, recorded as a component of loss on investment securities in the consolidated statements of comprehensive (loss) income . Fair value is determined under the guidance of Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, or ASC 820. The Company determines the fair value of its RMBS that are issued or guaranteed as to principal and/or interest by a federally chartered corporation, such as Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac, or an agency of the U.S. government, such as Ginnie Mae (collectively, “Agency RMBS”), based upon prices obtained from third-party pricing providers or broker quotes received using the bid price, which are both deemed indicative of market activity. In determining the fair value of its non-Agency securities, management judgment is used to arrive at fair value that considers prices obtained from third-party pricing providers, broker quotes received and other applicable market data. If listed price data is not available or insufficient, then fair value is based upon internally developed models that are primarily based on observable market-based inputs but also include unobservable market data inputs. See Note 9 - Fair Value of these notes to the consolidated financial statements for details on fair value measurement. Investment securities transactions are recorded on the trade date. The cost basis for realized gains and losses on sales of investment securities are determined on the first-in, first-out, or FIFO, method. Interest income on securities is accrued based on the outstanding principal balance and their contractual terms. Premiums and discounts associated with Agency RMBS and non-Agency securities rated AA and higher at the time of purchase, are amortized into interest income over the life of such securities using the effective yield method. Adjustments to premium amortization are made for actual prepayment activity. The Company estimates prepayments for its Agency interest-only securities, which represent the Company’s right to receive a specified portion of the contractual interest flows of specific Agency securities. As a result, if prepayments increase (or are expected to increase), the Company will accelerate the rate of amortization on the premiums. Interest income on the non-Agency securities that were purchased at a discount to par value and were rated below AA at the time of purchase is recognized based on the security’s effective interest rate. The effective interest rate on these securities is based on the projected cash flows from each security, which are estimated based on the Company’s observation of current information and events and include assumptions related to interest rates, prepayment rates, and the timing and amount of credit losses. On at least a quarterly basis, the Company reviews and, if appropriate, makes adjustments to its cash flow projections based on input and analysis received from external sources, internal models, and its judgment about interest rates, prepayment rates, the timing and amount of credit losses, and other factors. Changes in cash flows from those originally projected, or from those estimated at the last evaluation, may result in a prospective change in the yield/interest income recognized on such securities. Actual maturities of the AFS securities are affected by the contractual lives of the associated mortgage collateral, periodic payments of principal, and prepayments of principal. Therefore actual maturities of AFS securities are generally shorter than stated contractual maturities. Stated contractual maturities are generally greater than ten years. Based on the projected cash flows from the Company’s non-Agency securities purchased at a discount to par value, a portion of the purchase discount may be designated as credit protection against future credit losses and, therefore, not accreted into interest income. The amount designated as credit discount may be adjusted over time, based on the actual performance of the security, its underlying collateral, actual and projected cash flow from such collateral, economic conditions, and other factors. If the performance of a security with a credit discount is more favorable than forecasted, a portion of the amount designated as credit discount may be accreted into interest income prospectively. Conversely, if the performance of a security with a credit discount is less favorable than forecasted, an impairment charge and write-down of such security to a new cost basis results. The Company evaluates its investment securities, on a quarterly basis, to assess whether a decline in the fair value of an AFS security below the Company’s amortized cost basis is an other-than-temporary impairment, or OTTI. The presence of OTTI is based upon a fair value decline below a security’s amortized cost basis and a corresponding adverse change in expected cash flows due to credit related factors as well as non-credit factors, such as changes in interest rates and market spreads. Impairment is considered other-than-temporary if an entity (i) intends to sell the security, (ii) will more likely than not be required to sell the security before it recovers in value, or (iii) does not expect to recover the security’s amortized cost basis, even if the entity does not intend to sell the security. Under these scenarios, the impairment is other-than-temporary and the full amount of impairment should be recognized currently in earnings and the cost basis of the investment security is adjusted. However, if an entity does not intend to sell the impaired debt security and it is more likely than not that it will not be required to sell before recovery, the OTTI is separated into (i) the estimated amount relating to credit loss, or credit component, and (ii) the amount relating to all other factors, or non-credit component. Only the estimated credit loss amount is recognized currently in earnings, with the remainder of the loss amount recognized in other comprehensive (loss) income . The difference between the new amortized cost basis and the cash flows expected to be collected is accreted as interest income in accordance with the effective interest method. Mortgage Servicing Rights, at Fair Value The Company’s MSR represent the right to service mortgage loans. The Company and its subsidiaries do not originate or directly service mortgage loans, and instead contract with appropriately licensed subservicers to handle substantially all servicing functions in the name of the subservicer for the loans underlying the Company’s MSR. However, as an owner and manager of MSR, the Company may be obligated to fund advances of principal and interest payments due to third-party owners of the loans, but not yet received from the individual borrowers. These advances are reported as servicing advances within the other assets line item on the consolidated balance sheets. MSR are reported at fair value on the consolidated balance sheets. Although MSR transactions are observable in the marketplace, the valuation includes unobservable market data inputs (prepayment speeds, delinquency levels and discount rates). Changes in the fair value of MSR as well as servicing fee income and servicing expenses are reported on the consolidated statements of comprehensive (loss) income . Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and cash equivalents include cash held in bank accounts and cash held in money market funds on an overnight basis. Restricted Cash Restricted cash represents the Company’s cash held by counterparties as collateral against the Company’s securities, certain derivative instruments and/or repurchase agreements. Also included is the cash balance held pursuant to a letter of credit on the New York office lease. Cash held by counterparties as collateral, which resides in non-interest bearing accounts, is not available to the Company for general corporate purposes, but may be applied against amounts due to security, derivative or repurchase counterparties or returned to the Company when the collateral requirements are exceeded or, at the maturity of the derivative or repurchase agreement. Accrued Interest Receivable Accrued interest receivable represents interest that is due and payable to the Company. Cash interest is generally received within 30 days of recording the receivable. Due from/to Counterparties, net Due from counterparties includes cash held by counterparties for payment of principal and interest as well as cash held by counterparties as collateral against certain of the Company’s derivatives and/or repurchase agreements but represents excess capacity and deemed unrestricted and a receivable from the counterparty as of the balance sheet date. Due from counterparties also includes cash receivable from counterparties for sales of MSR pending final transfer and settlement. Due to counterparties includes cash payable by the Company upon settlement of trade positions as well as cash deposited to and held by the Company as collateral against certain of the Company’s derivatives and/or repurchase agreements but represents a payable to the counterparty as of the balance sheet date. Due to counterparties also includes purchase price holdbacks on MSR acquisitions for early prepayment or default provisions, collateral exceptions and other contractual terms. Derivative Financial Instruments, at Fair Value In accordance with ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging, as amended and interpreted, or ASC 815, all derivative financial instruments, whether designated for hedging relationships or not, are recorded on the consolidated balance sheets as assets or liabilities and carried at fair value. At the inception of a derivative contract, the Company determines whether the instrument will be part of a qualifying hedge accounting relationship or whether the Company will account for the contract as a trading instrument. Due to the volatility of the credit markets and difficulty in effectively matching pricing or cash flows, the Company has elected to treat all current derivative contracts as trading instruments. Changes in fair value as well as the accrual and settlement of interest associated with derivatives accounted for as trading instruments are reported in the consolidated statements of comprehensive (loss) income as gain (loss) on interest rate swap, cap and swaption agreements or (loss) gain on other derivative instruments depending on the type of derivative instrument. The Company enters into interest rate derivative contracts for a variety of reasons, including minimizing fluctuations in earnings or market values on certain assets or liabilities that may be caused by changes in interest rates. The Company may, at times, enter into various forward contracts including short securities, Agency to-be-announced securities, or TBAs, options, futures, swaps, and caps. Due to the nature of these instruments, they may be in a receivable/asset position or a payable/liability position at the end of an accounting period. Amounts payable to and receivable from the same party under contracts may be offset as long as the following conditions are met: (a) each of the two parties owes the other determinable amounts; (b) the reporting party has the right to offset the amount owed with the amount owed by the other party; (c) the reporting party intends to offset; and (d) the right of offset is enforceable by law. If the aforementioned conditions are not met, amounts payable to and receivable from are presented by the Company on a gross basis in its consolidated balance sheets. The Company’s centrally cleared interest rate swaps require that the Company posts an “initial margin” amount determined by the clearing exchange, which is generally intended to be set at a level sufficient to protect the exchange from the interest rate swap’s maximum estimated single-day price movement. The Company also exchanges “variation margin” based upon daily changes in fair value, as measured by the exchange. As a result of amendments to rules governing certain central clearing activities, the exchange of variation margin is a settlement of the interest rate swap, as opposed to pledged collateral. Accordingly, beginning in the first quarter of 2018 and in subsequent periods, the Company accounts for the receipt or payment of variation margin on interest rate swaps as a direct reduction to the carrying value of the interest rate swap asset or liability. As of December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 , variation margin pledged or received is netted on a counterparty basis and classified within restricted cash, due from counterparties, or due to counterparties on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. The Company has provided specific disclosure regarding the location and amounts of derivative instruments in the consolidated financial statements and how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for. See Note 7 - Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities of these notes to the consolidated financial statements. Reverse Repurchase Agreements The Company may borrow U.S. Treasury securities through reverse repurchase transactions under its master repurchase agreements to cover short sales. The Company accounts for these reverse repurchase agreements as securities borrowing transactions and records them at amortized cost, which approximates fair value due to their short-term nature, on its consolidated balance sheets. Commercial Real Estate Assets (of Discontinued Operations) Due to the Company’s controlling ownership interest in Granite Point through November 1, 2017, its financial condition and results of operations through such date reflect Granite Point’s commercial strategy, which includes as target assets first mortgages, mezzanine loans, B-notes and preferred equity. These commercial real estate assets have been reclassified to assets of discontinued operations on the consolidated balance sheets. Interest income on commercial real estate assets has been reclassified to income from discontinued operations on the consolidated statements of comprehensive (loss) income . The Company’s commercial real estate assets were reported at cost, net of any unamortized acquisition premiums or discounts, loan fees and origination costs as applicable, unless the assets were deemed impaired. No impairments were recorded while these loans were held by the Company. Interest income on commercial real estate assets was recognized at the loan coupon rate. Any premiums or discounts, loan fees and origination costs were amortized or accreted into interest income over the lives of the loans using the effective interest method. Loans were considered past due when they are 30 days past their contractual due date. Interest income recognition was suspended when loans are placed on nonaccrual status. Generally, commercial real estate loans were placed on nonaccrual status when delinquent for more than 60 days or when determined not to be probable of full collection. Interest accrued, but not collected, at the date loans were placed on nonaccrual is reversed and subsequently recognized only to the extent it was received in cash or until it qualified for return to accrual status. However, where there was doubt regarding the ultimate collectability of loan principal, all cash received was applied to reduce the carrying value of such loans. Commercial real estate loans were restored to accrual status only when contractually current or the collection of future payments was reasonably assured. Repurchase Agreements The Company finances certain of its investment securities and MSR through the use of repurchase agreements. These repurchase agreements are generally short-term debt, which expire within one year. As of December 31, 2018 , certain of the Company’s repurchase agreements had contractual terms of greater than one year, and were considered long-term debt. Borrowings under repurchase agreements generally bear interest rates of a specified margin over one-month LIBOR and are generally uncommitted. The repurchase agreements are treated as collateralized financing transactions and are carried at their contractual amounts, as specified in the respective agreements. Federal Home Loan Bank of Des Moines Advances and Stock Holdings The Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, TH Insurance Holdings Company LLC, or TH Insurance, is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Des Moines, or the FHLB. As a member of the FHLB, TH Insurance has access to a variety of products and services offered by the FHLB, including secured advances. The Company’s secured advances from the FHLB may have both short-term and long-term maturities. The advances with less than five year terms generally bear interest rates of a spread over one- or three-month LIBOR and the advances with 20-year terms generally bear interest rates of or one- or three-month MOVR, or the FHLB member option variable-rate. FHLB advances are treated as secured financing transactions and are carried at their contractual amounts. As a condition to membership in the FHLB, the Company is required to purchase and hold a certain amount of FHLB stock, which is based, in part, upon the outstanding principal balance of advances from the FHLB. FHLB stock is considered a nonmarketable, long-term investment, is carried at cost and is subject to recoverability testing under applicable accounting standards. This stock can only be redeemed or sold at its par value, and only to the FHLB. Accordingly, when evaluating FHLB stock for impairment, the Company considers the ultimate recoverability of the par value rather than recognizing temporary declines in value. At its discretion, the FHLB may declare dividends on its stock. Revolving Credit Facilities To finance MSR, the Company enters into revolving credit facilities collateralized by pledged MSR. Borrowings under these revolving credit facilities that expire within one year are considered short-term debt. As of December 31, 2018 , the Company’s revolving credit facilities that had contractual terms of greater than one year were considered long-term debt. The Company’s revolving credit facilities generally bear interest rates of a specified margin over one-month LIBOR. Borrowings under revolving credit facilities are treated as collateralized financing transactions and are carried at contractual amounts, as specified in the respective agreements. Convertible Senior Notes Convertible senior notes include unsecured convertible debt that are carried at their unpaid principal balance, net of any unamortized deferred issuance costs, on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet. Interest on the notes is payable semiannually until such time the notes mature or are converted into shares of the Company’s common stock. Accrued Interest Payable Accrued interest payable represents interest that is due and payable to third parties. Interest is generally paid within 30 days to three months of recording the payable, based upon the Company’s remittance requirements. Deferred Tax Assets and Liabilities Income recognition for U.S. GAAP and tax differ in certain respects. These differences often reflect differing accounting treatments for tax and U.S. GAAP, such as accounting for discount and premium amortization, credit losses, asset impairments, recognition of certain operating expenses and certain valuation estimates. Some of these differences are temporary in nature and create timing mismatches between when taxable income is earned and the tax is paid versus when the earnings (losses) for U.S. GAAP purposes, or GAAP net (loss) income , are recognized and the tax provision is recorded. Some of these differences are permanent since certain income (or expense) may be recorded for tax purposes but not for U.S. GAAP purposes (or vice-versa). One such significant permanent difference is the Company’s ability as a REIT to deduct dividends paid to stockholders as an expense for tax purposes, but not for U.S. GAAP purposes. As a result of these temporary differences, the Company’s TRSs may recognize taxable income in periods prior or subsequent to when it recognizes income for U.S. GAAP purposes. When this occurs, the TRSs pay or defer the tax liability and establish deferred tax assets or deferred tax liabilities, respectively, for U.S. GAAP purposes. As the income is subsequently realized in future periods under U.S. GAAP, the deferred tax asset is recognized as an expense. Alternatively, as the TRSs realize the deferred taxable income, the deferred tax liability is recognized as a reduction to taxable income. The Company’s deferred tax assets and/or liabilities are generated solely by differences in GAAP net (loss) income and taxable income (loss) at our taxable subsidiaries. U.S. GAAP and tax differences in the REIT may create additional deferred tax assets and/or liabilities to the extent the Company does not distribute all of its taxable income. Income Taxes The Company has elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Code and the corresponding provisions of state law. To qualify as a REIT, the Company must distribute at least 90% of its annual REIT taxable income to stockholders (not including taxable income retained in its taxable subsidiaries) within the time frame set forth in the tax Code and the Company must also meet certain other requirements. In addition, because certain activities, if performed by the Company, may cause the Company to earn income which is not qualifying for the REIT gross income tests, the Company has formed TRSs, as defined in the Code, to engage in such activities. These TRSs’ activities are subject to income taxes as well as any REIT taxable income not distributed to stockholders. The Company assesses its tax positions for all open tax years and determines whether the Company has any material unrecognized liabilities in accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes . The Company records these liabilities to the extent the Company deems them more likely than not to be incurred. The Company classifies interest and penalties on material uncertain tax positions as interest expense and operating expense, respectively, in its consolidated statements of comprehensive (loss) income . The SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB 118”), which provides guidance on accounting for tax effects of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (“TCJA”), which was signed into law on December 22, 2017. SAB 118 provided a measurement period that should not extend beyond one year from the TCJA enactment date for companies to complete the accounting under ASC 740. In accordance with SAB 118, a company must reflect the income tax effects of those aspects of the Act for which the accounting under ASC 740 is complete. To the extent that a company’s accounting for certain income tax effects of the TCJA were incomplete but it was able to determine a reasonable estimate, it was required to record a provisional estimate to be included in the financial statements. . If a company could not determine a provisional estimate to be included in the financial statements, it continued to apply ASC 740 on the basis of the provision of the tax laws that were in effect immediately before the enactment of the TCJA. The TCJA significantly revised the U.S. corporate income tax by, among other things, lowering the federal income tax rate applicable to corporations from 35% to 21% and repealing the corporate alternative minimum tax. In addition, the deduction of net interest expense is limited for all businesses; provided that certain businesses, including real estate businesses, may elect not to be subject to such limitations and instead to depreciate their real property related assets over longer depreciable lives. This limitation could adversely affect our TRSs. The Company recorded a provisional tax provision of $17.5 million in the 2017 financial statements, which was included as a component of income tax expense from continuing operations. This amount represents the remeasurement of federal net deferred tax assets resulting from the permanent reduction in the U.S. statutory corporate tax rate from 35% to 21% . The provisional amount was finalized in 2018 without any changes and there is no additional impact to the 2018 financial statements. Technical corrections or other amendments to the TCJA or administrative guidance interpreting the TCJA may be forthcoming at any time. While the Company does not anticipate a material effect on its operations, the Company will continue to analyze and monitor the application of the TCJA to its businesses, its peers and the economic environment. Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) Current period net unrealized gains and losses on AFS securities, excluding Agency interest-only securities, are reported as components of accumulated other comprehensive income on the consolidated statements of stockholders’ equity and in the consolidated statements of comprehensive (loss) income . Net unrealized gains and losses on securities held by our taxable subsidiaries that are reported in accumulated other comprehensive income are adjusted for the effects of taxation and may create deferred tax assets or liabilities. Earnings Per Share Basic and diluted (loss) earnings per share are computed by dividing net (loss) income attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares and potential common shares outstanding during the period. For both basic and diluted per share calculations, potential common shares represents issued and unvested shares of restricted stock, which have full rights to the common stock dividend declarations of the Company. If the assumed conversion of convertible notes into common shares is dilutive, diluted (loss) earnings per share is adjusted by adding back the periodic interest expense (net of any tax effects) associated with dilutive convertible notes to net (loss) income attributable to common stockholders and adding the shares issued in an assumed conversion to the diluted weighted average share count. All per share amounts, common shares outstanding and restricted shares for all periods presented reflect the Company’s one-for-two reverse stock split effected on November 1, 2017 (refer to Note 16 - Stockholders’ Equity for additional information). Equity Incentive Plan The Company’s Second Restated 2009 Equity Incentive Plan, or the Plan, provides incentive compensation to attract and retain qualified directors, officers, advisors, consultants and other personnel, including PRCM Advisers and its affiliates. The Plan is administered by the compensation committee of the Company’s board of directors. |

Acquisition of CYS Investments, Inc. | Acquisition of CYS Investments, Inc. On July 31, 2018, the Company completed the acquisition of CYS, through a merger of CYS with and into a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, in exchange for approximately 72.6 million shares of Two Harbors common stock as well as aggregate cash consideration of $15.0 million . In accordance with the merger agreement, the number of shares of Two Harbors common stock issued was based on an exchange ratio of 0.4680 per share and the cash consideration received by CYS common stockholders was $0.0965 per share. In addition, the Company issued 3 million shares of newly classified Series D cumulative redeemable preferred stock and 8 million shares of newly classified Series E cumulative redeemable preferred stock in exchange for all shares of CYS’s Series A and Series B cumulative redeemable preferred stock outstanding prior to the effective time of the merger. The total purchase price for the merger of $1.4 billion consists primarily of Two Harbors common stock issued in exchange for shares of CYS common stock and was calculated based on the $15.50 closing price of Two Harbors common stock on July 31, 2018. (dollars in thousands, except per share prices) July 31, Common Stock Exchange: CYS common stock outstanding 155,102,543 Common exchange ratio 0.4680 Two Harbors common stock to be issued 72,587,990 Less: fractional shares 218 Two Harbors common stock issued 72,587,772 Two Harbors share price $ 15.50 $ 1,125,114 Cash in Lieu of Common Stock: Fractional shares 218 Cash in lieu rate $ 15.59 $ 3 Per Share Cash Consideration: CYS common stock outstanding 155,102,543 Per share cash consideration 0.0965 $ 14,967 Preferred Stock Exchange: Shares Series D preferred stock 3,000,000 $ 75,000 Series E preferred stock 8,000,000 $ 200,000 Total Purchase Price $ 1,415,084 As discussed in Note 2 - Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies , the merger was accounted for as an asset acquisition.

Available-for-Sale Securities, at Fair Value | Available-for-Sale Securities, at Fair Value The Company holds AFS investment securities which are carried at fair value on the consolidated balance sheets. The following table presents the Company’s AFS investment securities by collateral type as of December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 : (in thousands) December 31, December 31, Agency Federal National Mortgage Association $ 15,812,696 $ 13,920,721 Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation 4,930,963 3,616,967 Government National Mortgage Association 941,374 701,037 Non-Agency 3,867,571 2,982,094 Total available-for-sale securities $ 25,552,604 $ 21,220,819 At December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 , the Company pledged AFS securities with a carrying value of $25.2 billion and $21.0 billion , respectively, as collateral for repurchase agreements and advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Des Moines, or the FHLB. See Note 10 - Repurchase Agreements and Note 12 - Federal Home Loan Bank of Des Moines Advances . At December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 , the Company did not have any securities purchased from and financed with the same counterparty that did not meet the conditions of ASC 860, to be considered linked transactions and, therefore, classified as derivatives. The Company is not required to consolidate VIEs for which it has concluded it does not have both the power to direct the activities of the VIEs that most significantly impact the entities’ performance, and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits of the entities that could be significant. The Company’s investments in these unconsolidated VIEs include all non-Agency securities, which are classified within available-for-sale securities, at fair value on the consolidated balance sheets. As of December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 , the carrying value, which also represents the maximum exposure to loss, of all non-Agency securities in unconsolidated VIEs was $3.9 billion and $3.0 billion , respectively.

The Company may also record an other-than-temporary impairment, or OTTI, for a portion of its investment in the security to the extent the Company believes that the amortized cost will exceed the present value of expected future cash flows. The amount of principal that the Company does not amortize into income is designated as a credit reserve on the security, with unamortized net discounts or premiums amortized into income over time to the extent realizable. The following table presents the changes for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 of the net unamortized discount/premium and designated credit reserves on non-Agency AFS securities.

At December 31, 2018 , the Company held 1,550 AFS securities, of which 290 were in an unrealized loss position for less than twelve consecutive months and 489 were in an unrealized loss position for more than twelve consecutive months. At December 31, 2017 , the Company held 1,435 AFS securities, of which 253 were in an unrealized loss position for less than twelve consecutive months and 234 were in an unrealized loss position for more than twelve consecutive months. Of the $4.4 billion and $12.2 billion of AFS securities in an unrealized loss position for less than twelve consecutive months as of December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 , $3.1 billion , or 71.1% , and $12.0 billion , or 98.5% , respectively, were Agency AFS securities, whose principal and interest are guaranteed by the GSEs.

The Company compares the amortized cost of each security in an unrealized loss position against the present value of expected future cash flows of the security. The Company also considers whether there has been a significant adverse change in the regulatory and/or economic environment as part of this analysis. If the amortized cost of the security is greater than the present value of expected future cash flows using the original yield as the discount rate, an other-than-temporary credit impairment has occurred. If the Company does not intend to sell and will not be more likely than not required to sell the security, the credit loss is recognized in earnings and the balance of the unrealized loss is recognized in either other comprehensive (loss) income , net of tax, or loss on investment securities , depending on the accounting treatment. If the Company intends to sell the security or will be more likely than not required to sell the security, the full unrealized loss is recognized in earnings. During the years ended December 31, 2018 , 2017 and 2016 , the Company recorded $0.5 million , $0.8 million and $1.8 million in other-than-temporary credit impairments on a total of three , two and four non-Agency securities, respectively, where the future expected cash flows for each security were less than its amortized cost. As of December 31, 2018 , impaired securities with a carrying value of $135.5 million had actual weighted average cumulative losses of 8.8% , weighted average three-month prepayment speed of 5.8% , weighted average 60+ day delinquency of 18.6% of the pool balance, and weighted average FICO score of 667 . At December 31, 2018 , the Company did not intend to sell the securities and determined that it was not more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the securities; therefore, only the projected credit loss was recognized in earnings. The following table presents the changes in OTTI included in earnings for the years ended December 31, 2018 , 2017 and 2016 : Year Ended December 31, (in thousands) 2018 2017 2016 Cumulative credit loss at beginning of period $ (6,395 ) $ (5,606 ) $ (6,499 ) Additions: Other-than-temporary impairments not previously recognized (264 ) (429 ) (1,307 ) Increases related to other-than-temporary impairments on securities with previously recognized other-than-temporary impairments (206 ) (360 ) (515 ) Reductions: Decreases related to other-than-temporary impairments on securities paid down — — 1,387 Decreases related to other-than-temporary impairments on securities sold — — 1,328 Cumulative credit loss at end of period $ (6,865 ) $ (6,395 ) $ (5,606 ) Cumulative credit losses related to OTTI may be reduced for securities sold as well as for securities that mature, are paid down, or are prepaid such that the outstanding principal balance is reduced to zero. Additionally, increases in cash flows expected to be collected over the remaining life of the security cause a reduction in the cumulative credit loss. Gross Realized Gains and Losses Gains and losses from the sale of AFS securities are recorded as realized gains (losses) within loss on investment securities in the Company’s consolidated statements of comprehensive (loss) income . For the years ended December 31, 2018 , 2017 and 2016 , the Company sold AFS securities for $15.2 billion , $8.7 billion and $14.4 billion with an amortized cost of $15.6 billion , $8.7 billion and $14.5 billion for net realized losses of $349.6 million , $32.5 million and $126.2 million , respectively. The following table presents the gross realized gains and losses on sales of AFS securities for the years ended December 31, 2018 , 2017 and 2016 : Year Ended December 31, (in thousands) 2018 2017 2016 Gross realized gains $ 70,076 $ 67,764 $ 97,049 Gross realized losses (419,638 ) (100,255 ) (223,277 ) Total realized losses on sales, net $ (349,562 ) $ (32,491 ) $ (126,228 ) |

Servicing Activities | Servicing Activities Mortgage Servicing Rights, at Fair Value One of the Company’s wholly owned subsidiaries has approvals from Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac to own and manage MSR, which represent the right to control the servicing of mortgage loans. The Company and its subsidiaries do not originate or directly service mortgage loans, and instead contract with appropriately licensed subservicers to handle substantially all servicing functions in the name of the subservicer for the loans underlying the Company’s MSR. The following table summarizes activity related to MSR for the years ended December 31, 2018 , 2017 and 2016 . Year Ended December 31, (in thousands) 2018 2017 2016 Balance at beginning of period $ 1,086,717 $ 693,815 $ 493,688 Additions from purchases of mortgage servicing rights 988,283 499,866 312,580 Additions from sales of residential mortgage loans — 20 924 Subtractions from sales of mortgage servicing rights — (946 ) (61,511 ) Changes in fair value due to: Changes in valuation inputs or assumptions used in the valuation model 80,209 6,339 16,572 Other changes in fair value (1) (149,879 ) (96,781 ) (78,729 ) Other changes (2) (11,890 ) (15,596 ) 10,291 Balance at end of period $ 1,993,440 $ 1,086,717 $ 693,815 ____________________ (1) Other changes in fair value primarily represents changes due to the realization of expected cash flows. (2) Other changes includes purchase price adjustments, contractual prepayment protection, and changes due to the Company’s purchase of the underlying collateral. At December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 , the Company pledged MSR with a carrying value of $1.1 billion and $0.6 billion , respectively, as collateral for repurchase agreements and revolving credit facilities. See Note 10 - Repurchase Agreements and Note 13 - Revolving Credit Facilities . As of December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 , the key economic assumptions and sensitivity of the fair value of MSR to immediate 10% and 20% adverse changes in these assumptions were as follows: (dollars in thousands) December 31, December 31, Weighted average prepayment speed: 8.6 % 9.8 % Impact on fair value of 10% adverse change $ (67,245 ) $ (40,100 ) Impact on fair value of 20% adverse change $ (130,371 ) $ (77,483 ) Weighted average delinquency: 1.3 % 1.7 % Impact on fair value of 10% adverse change $ (6,911 ) $ (4,274 ) Impact on fair value of 20% adverse change $ (13,688 ) $ (8,875 ) Weighted average discount rate: 9.4 % 9.9 % Impact on fair value of 10% adverse change $ (62,528 ) $ (35,137 ) Impact on fair value of 20% adverse change $ (121,135 ) $ (68,246 ) These assumptions and sensitivities are hypothetical and should be considered with caution. Changes in fair value based on 10% and 20% variations in assumptions generally cannot be extrapolated because the relationship of the change in assumptions to the change in fair value may not be linear. Also, the effect of a variation in a particular assumption on the fair value of MSR is calculated without changing any other assumptions. In reality, changes in one factor may result in changes in another ( e.g. , increased market interest rates may result in lower prepayments and increased credit losses) that could magnify or counteract the sensitivities. Further, these sensitivities show only the change in the asset balances and do not show any expected change in the fair value of the instruments used to manage the interest rates and prepayment risks associated with these assets. Risk Mitigation Activities The primary risk associated with the Company’s MSR is interest rate risk and the resulting impact on prepayments. A significant decline in interest rates could lead to higher-than-expected prepayments that could reduce the value of the MSR. The Company economically hedges the impact of these risks with its Agency RMBS portfolio. Mortgage Servicing Income The following table presents the components of servicing income recorded on the Company’s consolidated statements of comprehensive (loss) income for the years ended December 31, 2018 , 2017 and 2016 : Year Ended December 31, (in thousands) 2018 2017 2016 Servicing fee income $ 312,100 $ 197,902 $ 138,430 Ancillary and other fee income 1,280 1,009 1,631 Float income 29,716 10,154 3,518 Total $ 343,096 $ 209,065 $ 143,579 Mortgage Servicing Advances In connection with the servicing of loans, the Company’s subservicers make certain payments for property taxes and insurance premiums, default and property maintenance payments, as well as advances of principal and interest payments before collecting them from individual borrowers. Servicing advances, including contractual interest, are priority cash flows in the event of a loan principal reduction or foreclosure and ultimate liquidation of the real estate-owned property, thus making their collection reasonably assured. These servicing advances, which are funded by the Company, totaled $39.7 million and $31.1 million and were included in other assets on the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 , respectively. Serviced Mortgage Assets The Company’s total serviced mortgage assets consist of residential mortgage loans underlying MSR, residential mortgage loans held in previous on-balance sheet securitization trusts for which the Company is the named servicing administrator and and other assets. The following table presents the number of loans and unpaid principal balance of the mortgage assets for which the Company manages the servicing as of December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 : December 31, 2018 December 31, 2017 (dollars in thousands) Number of Loans Unpaid Principal Balance Number of Loans Unpaid Principal Balance Mortgage servicing rights 717,167 $ 163,102,308 454,028 $ 101,344,054 Residential mortgage loans in securitization trusts 3,612 2,392,471 3,845 2,618,016 Other assets 220 34,374 260 40,222 Total serviced mortgage assets 720,999 $ 165,529,153 458,133 $ 104,002,292 |

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities | Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities The Company enters into a variety of derivative and non-derivative instruments in connection with its risk management activities. The primary objective for executing these derivative and non-derivative instruments is to mitigate the Company’s economic exposure to future events that are outside its control, principally market risk and cash flow volatility associated with interest rate risk (including associated prepayment risk). Specifically, the Company enters into derivative and non-derivative instruments to economically hedge interest rate risk or “duration mismatch (or gap)” by adjusting the duration of its floating-rate borrowings into fixed-rate borrowings to more closely match the duration of its assets. This particularly applies to floating-rate borrowing agreements with maturities or interest rate resets of less than six months. Typically, the interest receivable terms ( i.e. , LIBOR) of certain derivatives match the terms of the underlying debt, resulting in an effective conversion of the rate of the related borrowing agreement from floating to fixed. The objective is to manage the cash flows associated with current and anticipated interest payments on borrowings, as well as the ability to roll or refinance borrowings at the desired amount by adjusting the duration. To help manage the adverse impact of interest rate changes on the value of the Company’s portfolio as well as its cash flows, the Company may, at times, enter into various forward contracts, including short securities, Agency to-be-announced securities, or TBAs, options, futures, swaps, caps and total return swaps. In executing on the Company’s current risk management strategy, the Company has entered into interest rate swap, cap and swaption agreements, TBAs, put and call options for TBAs and total return swaps (based on the Markit IOS Index). The Company has also entered into a number of non-derivative instruments to manage interest rate risk, principally MSR and Agency interest-only securities (see discussion below). The following summarizes the Company’s significant asset and liability classes, the risk exposure for these classes, and the Company’s risk management activities used to mitigate these risks. The discussion includes both derivative and non-derivative instruments used as part of these risk management activities. Any of the Company’s derivative and non-derivative instruments may be entered into in conjunction with one another in order to mitigate risks. As a result, the following discussions of each type of instrument should be read as a collective representation of the Company’s risk mitigation efforts and should not be considered independent of one another. While the Company uses derivative and non-derivative instruments to achieve the Company’s risk management activities, it is possible that these instruments will not effectively mitigate all or a substantial portion of the Company’s market rate risk. In addition, the Company might elect, at times, not to enter into certain hedging arrangements in order to maintain compliance with REIT requirements. Balance Sheet Presentation In accordance with ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging , or ASC 815, the Company records derivative financial instruments on its consolidated balance sheets as assets or liabilities at fair value. Changes in fair value are accounted for depending on the use of the derivative instruments and whether they are designated or qualifying as hedge instruments. Due to the volatility of the credit markets and difficulty in effectively matching pricing or cash flows, the Company has not designated any current derivatives as hedging instruments. The following tables present the gross fair value and notional amounts of the Company’s derivative financial instruments treated as trading derivatives as of December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 .

Cash flow activity related to derivative instruments is reflected within the operating activities and investing activities sections of the consolidated statements of cash flows. Realized gains and losses and derivative fair value adjustments are reflected within the realized and unrealized losses (gains) on interest rate swaps, caps and swaptions and unrealized loss (gain) on other derivative instruments line items within the operating activities section of the consolidated statements of cash flows. The remaining cash flow activity related to derivative instruments is reflected within the (purchases) short sales of other derivative instruments, proceeds from sales (payments for termination) of other derivative instruments, net and increase (decrease) in due to counterparties, net line items within the investing activities section of the consolidated statements of cash flows. Interest Rate Sensitive Assets/Liabilities The Company’s Agency RMBS portfolio is generally subject to change in value when mortgage rates decline or increase, depending on the type of investment. Rising mortgage rates generally result in a slowing of refinancing activity, which slows prepayments and results in a decline in the value of the Company’s fixed-rate Agency pools. To mitigate the impact of this risk on the Company’s fixed-rate Agency pool portfolio, the Company maintains a portfolio of fixed-rate interest-only securities and MSR, which increase in value when interest rates increase. As of December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 , the Company had $147.6 million and $117.8 million , respectively, of interest-only securities, and $2.0 billion and $1.1 billion , respectively, of MSR in place to economically hedge its Agency RMBS. Interest-only securities are included in AFS securities, at fair value, in the consolidated balance sheets. The Company monitors its borrowings under repurchase agreements, FHLB advances and revolving credit facilities, which are generally floating-rate debt, in relation to the rate profile of its portfolio. In connection with its risk management activities, the Company enters into a variety of derivative and non-derivative instruments to economically hedge interest rate risk or “duration mismatch (or gap)” by adjusting the duration of its floating-rate borrowings into fixed-rate borrowings to more closely match the duration of its assets. This particularly applies to borrowing agreements with maturities or interest rate resets of less than six months. Typically, the interest receivable terms ( i.e. , LIBOR) of certain derivatives match the terms of the underlying debt, resulting in an effective conversion of the rate of the related borrowing agreement from floating to fixed. The objective is to manage the cash flows associated with current and anticipated interest payments on borrowings, as well as the ability to roll or refinance borrowings at the desired amount by adjusting the duration. To help manage the adverse impact of interest rate changes on the value of the Company’s portfolio as well as its cash flows, the Company may, at times, enter into various forward contracts, including short securities, TBAs, options, futures, swaps, caps, credit default swaps and total return swaps. In executing on the Company’s current interest rate risk management strategy, the Company has entered into TBAs, put and call options for TBAs, interest rate swap, cap and swaption agreements and Markit IOS total return swaps. TBAs. At times, the Company may use TBAs as a means of deploying capital until targeted investments are available or to take advantage of temporary displacements, funding advantages or valuation differentials in the marketplace. Additionally, the Company may use TBAs independently, or in conjunction with other derivative and non-derivative instruments, in order to mitigate risks. TBAs are forward contracts for the purchase (long notional positions) or sale (short notional positions) of Agency RMBS. The issuer, coupon and stated maturity of the Agency RMBS are predetermined as well as the trade price, face amount and future settle date (published each month by the Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association). However, the specific Agency RMBS to be delivered upon settlement is not known at the time of the TBA transaction. As a result, and because physical delivery of the Agency RMBS upon settlement cannot be assured, the Company accounts for TBAs as derivative instruments. The Company may hold both long and short notional TBA positions, which are disclosed on a gross basis according to the unrealized gain or loss position of each TBA contract regardless of long or short notional position. The following tables present the notional amount, cost basis, market value and carrying value (which approximates fair value) of the Company’s TBA positions as of December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 : December 31, 2018 Net Carrying Value (4) (in thousands) Notional Amount (1) Cost Basis (2) Market Value (3) Derivative Assets Derivative Liabilities Purchase contracts $ 6,484,000 $ 6,734,858 $ 6,756,460 $ 21,602 $ — Sale contracts — — — — — TBAs, net $ 6,484,000 $ 6,734,858 $ 6,756,460 $ 21,602 $ — December 31, 2017 Net Carrying Value (4) (in thousands) Notional Amount (1) Cost Basis (2) Market Value (3) Derivative Assets Derivative Liabilities Purchase contracts $ 733,000 $ 769,446 $ 770,359 $ 913 $ — Sale contracts (1,306,000 ) (1,316,368 ) (1,318,297 ) — (1,930 ) TBAs, net $ (573,000 ) $ (546,922 ) $ (547,938 ) $ 913 $ (1,930 ) ___________________ (1) Notional amount represents the face amount of the underlying Agency RMBS.

Short U.S. Treasuries. The Company may use short U.S. Treasury securities independently, or in conjunction with other derivative and non-derivative instruments, in order to mitigate risks. As of December 31, 2018 , the Company had short sold U.S. Treasuries with a notional amount of $800.0 million with a fair market value of $781.5 million included in derivative liabilities, at fair value, on the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2018 . The Company did not hold any short U.S. Treasuries as of December 31, 2017 . Put and Call Options for TBAs . The Company may use put and call options for TBAs independently, or in conjunction with other derivative and non-derivative instruments, in order to mitigate risks.

Markit IOS Total Return Swaps . The Company may use total return swaps (agreements whereby the Company receives or makes payments based on the total return of an underlying instrument or index, such as the Markit IOS Index, in exchange for fixed or floating rate interest payments) independently, or in conjunction with other derivative and non-derivative instruments, in order to mitigate risks. The Company enters into total return swaps to help mitigate the potential impact of larger increases or decreases in interest rates on the performance of our portfolio (referred to as “convexity risk”). Total return swaps based on the Markit IOS Index are intended to synthetically replicate the performance of interest-only securities. The Company had the following total return swap agreements in place at December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 : (notional and dollars in thousands) December 31, 2018 Maturity Date Current Notional Amount Fair Value Cost Basis Unrealized Gain (Loss) January 12, 2043 $ (21,395 ) $ (153 ) $ (30 ) $ (123 ) January 12, 2044 (26,870 ) (230 ) (29 ) (201 ) Total $ (48,265 ) $ (383 ) $ (59 ) $ (324 ) (notional and dollars in thousands) December 31, 2017 Maturity Date Current Notional Amount Fair Value Cost Basis Unrealized Gain (Loss) January 12, 2043 $ (24,362 ) $ (24 ) $ 201 $ (225 ) January 12, 2044 (39,145 ) (82 ) 366 (448 ) Total $ (63,507 ) $ (106 ) $ 567 $ (673 ) Credit Risk The Company’s exposure to credit losses on its Agency RMBS portfolio is limited due to implicit or explicit backing from the GSEs. The payment of principal and interest on the Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae mortgage-backed securities are guaranteed by those respective agencies, and the payment of principal and interest on the Ginnie Mae mortgage-backed securities are backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government. For non-Agency investment securities and residential mortgage loans, the Company may enter into credit default swaps to hedge credit risk. In future periods, the Company could enhance its credit risk protection, enter into further paired derivative positions, including both long and short credit default swaps, and/or seek opportunistic trades in the event of a market disruption (see discussion under “Non-Risk Management Activities” below). The Company also has processes and controls in place to monitor, analyze, manage and mitigate its credit risk with respect to non-Agency securities and residential mortgage loans. Derivative financial instruments contain an element of credit risk if counterparties are unable to meet the terms of the agreements. Credit risk associated with derivative financial instruments is measured as the net replacement cost should the counterparties that owe the Company under such contracts completely fail to perform under the terms of these contracts, assuming there are no recoveries of underlying collateral, as measured by the market value of the derivative financial instruments. As of December 31, 2018 , the fair value of derivative financial instruments as an asset and liability position was $320.0 million and $820.6 million , respectively. The Company attempts to mitigate its credit risk exposure on derivative financial instruments by limiting its counterparties to banks and financial institutions that meet established credit guidelines. The Company also seeks to spread its credit risk exposure across multiple counterparties in order to reduce its exposure to any single counterparty. Additionally, the Company reduces credit risk on the majority of its derivative instruments by entering into agreements that permit the closeout and netting of transactions with the same counterparty or clearing agency, in the case of centrally cleared interest rate swaps, upon the occurrence of certain events. To further mitigate the risk of counterparty default, the Company maintains collateral agreements with certain of its counterparties and clearing agencies, which require both parties to maintain cash deposits in the event the fair values of the derivative financial instruments exceed established thresholds. The Company’s centrally cleared interest rate swaps require that the Company posts an “initial margin” amount determined by the clearing exchange, which is generally intended to be set at a level sufficient to protect the exchange from the interest rate swap’s maximum estimated single-day price movement. The Company also exchanges “variation margin” based upon daily changes in fair value, as measured by the exchange. As a result of amendments to rules governing certain central clearing activities, the exchange of variation margin is considered a settlement of the interest rate swap, as opposed to pledged collateral. Accordingly, beginning in the first quarter of 2018 and in subsequent periods, the Company accounts for the receipt or payment of variation margin as a direct reduction to the carrying value of the interest rate swap asset or liability. As of December 31, 2017, variation margin pledged or received was netted on a counterparty basis and classified within restricted cash, due from counterparties, or due to counterparties on the Company’s consolidated |

Offsetting [Abstract] | |
Offsetting Assets and Liabilities | Offsetting Assets and Liabilities Certain of the Company’s repurchase agreements are governed by underlying agreements that provide for a right of setoff in the event of default by either party to the agreement. The Company also has netting arrangements in place with all derivative counterparties pursuant to standard documentation developed by the International Swap and Derivatives Association, or ISDA, or central clearing exchange agreements, in the case of centrally cleared interest rate swaps. The Company and the counterparty or clearing agency are required to post cash collateral based upon the net underlying market value of the Company’s open positions with the counterparty. Additionally, the Company’s centrally cleared interest rate swaps require that the Company posts an “initial margin” amount determined by the clearing exchange, which is generally intended to be set at a level sufficient to protect the exchange from the interest rate swap’s maximum estimated single-day price movement. The Company also exchanges “variation margin” based upon daily changes in fair value, as measured by the exchange. Under U.S. GAAP, if the Company has a valid right of setoff, it may offset the related asset and liability and report the net amount. As a result of amendments to rules governing certain central clearing activities, the exchange of variation margin is considered a settlement of the interest rate swap, as opposed to pledged collateral. Accordingly, beginning in the first quarter of 2018 and in subsequent periods, the Company accounts for the receipt or payment of variation margin on CME and LCH cleared positions as a direct reduction to the carrying value of the interest rate swap asset or liability. The receipt or payment of initial margin will continue to be accounted for separate from the interest rate swap asset or liability. As of December 31, 2017, variation margin pledged or received was netted on a counterparty basis and classified within restricted cash, due from counterparties, or due to counterparties on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. The Company presents repurchase agreements subject to master netting arrangements or similar agreements on a gross basis and derivative assets and liabilities (other than centrally cleared interest rate swaps) subject to such arrangements on a net basis, based on derivative type and counterparty, in its consolidated balance sheets. Separately, the Company presents cash collateral subject to such arrangements (other than variation margin on centrally cleared interest rate swaps) on a net basis, based on counterparty, in its consolidated balance sheets. However, the Company does not offset repurchase agreements or derivative assets and liabilities (other than centrally cleared interest rate swaps) with the associated cash collateral on its consolidated balance sheets. The following tables present information about the Company’s assets and liabilities that are subject to master netting arrangements or similar agreements and can potentially be offset on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 : December 31, 2018 Gross Amounts Not Offset with Financial Assets (Liabilities) in the Consolidated Balance Sheets (1) (in thousands) Gross Amounts of Recognized Assets (Liabilities) Gross Amounts Offset in the Consolidated Balance Sheets Net Amounts of Assets (Liabilities) Presented in the Consolidated Balance Sheets Financial Instruments Cash Collateral (Received) Pledged Net Amount Assets Derivative assets $ 599,573 $ (279,592 ) $ 319,981 $ (58,775 ) $ — $ 261,206 Reverse repurchase agreements 761,815 $ — $ 761,815 (761,815 ) $ — $ — Total Assets $ 1,361,388 $ (279,592 ) $ 1,081,796 $ (820,590 ) $ — $ 261,206 Liabilities Repurchase agreements $ (23,133,476 ) $ — $ (23,133,476 ) $ 23,133,476 $ — $ — Derivative liabilities (1,100,182 ) 279,592 (820,590 ) 820,590 — — Total Liabilities $ (24,233,658 ) $ 279,592 $ (23,954,066 ) $ 23,954,066 $ — $ — December 31, 2017 Gross Amounts Not Offset with Financial Assets (Liabilities) in the Consolidated Balance Sheets (1) (in thousands) Gross Amounts of Recognized Assets (Liabilities) Gross Amounts Offset in the Consolidated Balance Sheets Net Amounts of Assets (Liabilities) Presented in the Consolidated Balance Sheets Financial Instruments Cash Collateral (Received) Pledged Net Amount Assets Derivative assets $ 340,576 $ (30,658 ) $ 309,918 $ (31,903 ) $ — $ 278,015 Total Assets $ 340,576 $ (30,658 ) $ 309,918 $ (31,903 ) $ — $ 278,015 Liabilities Repurchase agreements $ (19,451,207 ) $ — $ (19,451,207 ) $ 19,451,207 $ — $ — Derivative liabilities (62,561 ) 30,658 (31,903 ) 31,903 — — Total Liabilities $ (19,513,768 ) $ 30,658 $ (19,483,110 ) $ 19,483,110 $ — $ — ____________________ (1) Amounts presented are limited in total to the net amount of assets or liabilities presented in the consolidated balance sheets by instrument.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] | |
Fair Value | Fair Value Fair Value Measurements ASC 820 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. ASC 820 clarifies that fair value should be based on the assumptions market participants would use when pricing an asset or liability and establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the information used to develop those assumptions. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices available in active markets ( i.e. , observable inputs) and the lowest priority to data lacking transparency ( i.e. , unobservable inputs). Additionally, ASC 820 requires an entity to consider all aspects of nonperformance risk, including the entity’s own credit standing, when measuring fair value of a liability. ASC 820 establishes a three-level hierarchy to be used when measuring and disclosing fair value. An instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of significant input to its valuation. Following is a description of the three levels: Level 1 Inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the measurement date under current market conditions. Additionally, the entity must have the ability to access the active market and the quoted prices cannot be adjusted by the entity. Level 2 Inputs include quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in inactive markets for identical or similar assets or liabilities; or inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means for substantially the full-term of the assets or liabilities. Level 3 Unobservable inputs are supported by little or no market activity. The unobservable inputs represent the assumptions that market participants would use to price the assets and liabilities, including risk. Generally, Level 3 assets and liabilities are valued using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques that require significant judgment or estimation. The following are descriptions of the valuation methodologies used to measure material assets and liabilities at fair value and details of the valuation models, key inputs to those models and significant assumptions utilized. Available-for-sale securities . The Company holds a portfolio of AFS securities that are carried at fair value in the consolidated balance sheets and primarily comprised of Agency RMBS and non-Agency securities. The Company determines the fair value of its Agency RMBS based upon prices obtained from third-party pricing providers received using bid price, which are deemed indicative of market activity. The third-party pricing providers use pricing models that generally incorporate such factors as coupons, primary and secondary mortgage rates, rate reset period, issuer, prepayment speeds, credit enhancements and expected life of the security. In determining the fair value of its non-Agency securities, management judgment may be used to arrive at fair value that considers prices obtained from third-party pricing providers and other applicable market data. If observable market prices are not available or insufficient to determine fair value due principally to illiquidity in the marketplace, then fair value is based upon internally developed models that are primarily based on observable market-based inputs but also include unobservable market data inputs (including prepayment speeds, delinquency levels, and credit losses). The Company classified 99.6% and 0.4% of its AFS securities as Level 2 and Level 3 fair value assets, respectively, at December 31, 2018 . AFS securities account for 91.7% of all assets reported at fair value at December 31, 2018 . Mortgage servicing rights . The Company holds a portfolio of MSR that are carried at fair value on the consolidated balance sheets. The Company determines fair value of its MSR based on prices obtained from third-party pricing providers. Although MSR transactions are observable in the marketplace, the valuation is based upon cash flow models that include unobservable market data inputs (including prepayment speeds, delinquency levels and discount rates). As a result, the Company classified 100% of its MSR as Level 3 fair value assets at December 31, 2018 . Derivative instruments . The Company may enter into a variety of derivative financial instruments as part of its hedging strategies. The Company principally executes over-the-counter, or OTC, derivative contracts, such as interest rate swaps, caps, swaptions, put and call options for TBAs and Markit IOS total return swaps. The Company utilizes third-party pricing providers to value its financial derivative instruments. The Company classified 100% of the interest rate swaps, caps, swaptions, put and call options for TBAs and Markit IOS total return swaps reported at fair value as Level 2 at December 31, 2018 . The Company may also enter into certain other derivative financial instruments, such as TBAs, short U.S. Treasuries and inverse interest-only securities. These instruments are similar in form to the Company’s AFS securities and the Company utilizes a pricing service to value TBAs, short U.S. Treasuries and inverse interest-only securities. The Company classified 100% of its short U.S. Treasuries and inverse interest-only securities at fair value as Level 2 at December 31, 2018 . The Company reported 100% of its TBAs as Level 1 as of December 31, 2018 . The Company’s risk management committee governs trading activity relating to derivative instruments. The Company’s policy is to minimize credit exposure related to financial derivatives used for hedging by limiting the hedge counterparties to major banks, financial institutions, exchanges, and private investors who meet established capital and credit guidelines as well as by limiting the amount of exposure to any individual counterparty. The Company has netting arrangements in place with all derivative counterparties pursuant to standard documentation developed by ISDA, or central clearing exchange agreements, in the case of centrally cleared interest rate swaps. Additionally, both the Company and the counterparty or clearing agency are required to post cash collateral based upon the net underlying market value of the Company’s open positions with the counterparty. Posting of cash collateral typically occurs daily, subject to certain dollar thresholds. Due to the existence of netting arrangements, as well as frequent cash collateral posting at low posting thresholds, credit exposure to the Company and/or to the counterparty or clearing agency is considered materially mitigated. Based on the Company’s assessment, there is no requirement for any additional adjustment to derivative valuations specifically for credit. Equity securities. The Company’s equity securities are carried at fair value and reported in other assets on the consolidated balance sheets. Changes in fair value are recorded as a component of loss on investment securities in the consolidated statements of comprehensive (loss) income . The Company determines fair value of its equity securities based on the closing market price of the securities at period end. The Company did not hold any equity securities at December 31, 2018 . The following tables display the Company’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis. The Company often economically hedges the fair value change of its assets or liabilities with derivatives and other financial instruments. The tables below display the hedges separately from the hedged items, and therefore do not directly display the impact of the Company’s risk management activities.

These periodic fair value measures typically result from application of certain impairment measures under U.S. GAAP. These items would constitute nonrecurring fair value measures under ASC 820. As of December 31, 2018 , the Company did not have any assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis in the periods presented. The valuation of Level 3 instruments requires significant judgment by the third-party pricing providers and/or management. The third-party pricing providers and/or management rely on inputs such as market price quotations from market makers (either market or indicative levels), original transaction price, recent transactions in the same or similar instruments, and changes in financial ratios or cash flows to determine fair value. Level 3 instruments may also be discounted to reflect illiquidity and/or non-transferability, with the amount of such discount estimated by the third-party pricing providers in the absence of market information. Assumptions used by the third-party pricing providers due to lack of observable inputs may significantly impact the resulting fair value and therefore the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The Company’s valuation committee reviews all valuations that are based on pricing information received from third-party pricing providers. As part of this review, prices are compared against other pricing or input data points in the marketplace, along with internal valuation expertise, to ensure the pricing is reasonable. In addition, the Company performs back-testing of pricing information to validate price information and identify any pricing trends of a third-party price provider. In determining fair value, third-party pricing providers use various valuation approaches, including market and income approaches. Inputs that are used in determining fair value of an instrument may include pricing information, credit data, volatility statistics, and other factors. In addition, inputs can be either observable or unobservable. The availability of observable inputs can vary by instrument and is affected by a wide variety of factors, including the type of instrument, whether the instrument is new and not yet established in the marketplace and other characteristics particular to the instrument. The third-party pricing provider uses prices and inputs that are current as of the measurement date, including during periods of market dislocations. In periods of market dislocation, the availability of prices and inputs may be reduced for many instruments. This condition could cause an instrument to be reclassified to or from various levels within the fair value hierarchy. Securities for which market quotations are readily available are valued at the bid price (in the case of long positions) or the ask price (in the case of short positions) at the close of trading on the date as of which value is determined. Exchange-traded securities for which no bid or ask price is available are valued at the last traded price. OTC derivative contracts, including interest rate swaps, caps and swaption agreements, put and call options for TBAs and U.S. Treasuries, constant maturity swaps, credit default swaps and Markit IOS total return swaps, are valued by the Company using observable inputs, specifically quotations received from third-party pricing providers, and are therefore classified within Level 2.

(2) The change in unrealized gains or losses on MSR that were held at the end of the reporting period was recorded in loss on servicing asset on the consolidated statements of comprehensive (loss) income . The Company transferred certain AFS from Level 2 to Level 3 based the observability of inputs during the year ended December 31, 2018 . No additional AFS transfers between Level 1, Level 2 or Level 3 were made during the year ended December 31, 2018 . The Company did not transfer AFS between Level 1, Level 2 or Level 3 during the year ended December 31, 2017 . Transfers between Levels are deemed to take place on the first day of the reporting period in which the transfer has taken place. The Company used third-party pricing providers in the fair value measurement of its Level 3 available-for-sale securities. The significant unobservable inputs used by the third-party pricing provider included expected default, severity and discount rate. Significant increases (decreases) in any of the inputs in isolation may result in significantly lower (higher) fair value measurement. The Company also used multiple third-party pricing providers in the fair value measurement of its Level 3 MSR. The table below presents information about the significant unobservable inputs used by the third-party pricing providers in the fair value measurement of the Company’s MSR classified as Level 3 fair value assets at December 31, 2018 : December 31, 2018 Valuation Technique Unobservable Input (1) Range Weighted Average (2) Discounted cash flow Constant prepayment speed 7.6 - 9.6 % 8.6% Delinquency 1.0 - 1.5 % 1.3% Discount rate 8.2 - 10.7 % 9.4% December 31, 2017 Valuation Technique Unobservable Input (1) Range Weighted Average (2) Discounted cash flow Constant prepayment speed 8.2 - 11.2 % 9.8% Delinquency 1.3 - 2.0 % 1.7% Discount rate 8.3 - 11.2 % 9.9% ___________________ (1) Significant increases (decreases) in any of the inputs in isolation may result in significantly lower (higher) fair value measurement. A change in the assumption used for discount rates may be accompanied by a directionally similar change in the assumption used for the probability of delinquency and a directionally opposite change in the assumption used for prepayment rates. (2) Calculated by averaging the weighted average significant unobservable inputs used by the multiple third-party pricing providers in the fair value measurement of MSR. Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities The Company elected the fair value option for its previously held residential mortgage loans held-for-investment in securitization trusts and the collateralized borrowings in securitization trusts. The fair value option was elected to better reflect the economics of the Company’s retained interests. The Company’s policy was to separately record interest income on the fair value elected loans and interest expense on the fair value elected borrowings. Upfront fees and costs were not deferred or capitalized. Fair value adjustments were reported in other income on the consolidated statements of comprehensive (loss) income . During the fourth quarter of 2017, the Company sold all of these retained subordinated securities thereby causing the deconsolidation of the securitization trusts from the Company’s consolidated balance sheet. The remaining retained securities are included within non-Agency AFS securities. The following tables summarize the fair value option elections and information regarding the line items and amounts recognized in the consolidated statements of comprehensive (loss) income for each fair value option-elected item. Year Ended December 31, 2017 (in thousands) Interest income (expense) Other income Total included in net (loss) income Change in fair value due to credit risk Assets Residential mortgage loans held-for-investment in securitization trusts 102,886 (1) 45,275 148,161 $ — (2) Liabilities Collateralized borrowings in securitization trusts (82,573 ) (22,592 ) (105,165 ) — (2) Total $ 20,313 $ 22,683 $ 42,996 $ — Year Ended December 31, 2016 (in thousands) Interest income (expense) Other income Total included in net (loss) income Change in fair value due to credit risk Assets Residential mortgage loans held-for-investment in securitization trusts 133,993 (1) (19,741 ) 114,252 — (2) Liabilities Collateralized borrowings in securitization trusts (97,729 ) 7,907 (89,822 ) — (2) Total $ 36,264 $ (11,834 ) $ 24,430 $ — ____________________ (1) Interest income on residential mortgage loans held-for-investment in securitization trusts is measured by multiplying the unpaid principal balance on the loans by the coupon rate and the number of days of interest due. (2) The change in fair value on residential mortgage loans held-for-investment in securitization trusts and collateralized borrowings in securitization trusts was due entirely to changes in market interest rates. Fair Value of Financial Instruments In accordance with ASC 820, the Company is required to disclose the fair value of financial instruments, both assets and liabilities recognized and not recognized in the consolidated balance sheets, for which fair value can be estimated. The following describes the Company’s methods for estimating the fair value for financial instruments. • AFS securities, MSR, and derivative assets and liabilities are recurring fair value measurements; carrying value equals fair value. See discussion of valuation methods and assumptions within the Fair Value Measurements section of this Note 9 . • Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash have a carrying value which approximates fair value because of the short maturities of these instruments. The Company categorizes the fair value measurement of these assets as Level 1. • Reverse repurchase agreements have a carrying value which approximates fair value due to their short-term nature. The Company categorizes the fair value measurement of these assets as Level 2. • The carrying value of repurchase agreements, FHLB advances and revolving credit facilities that mature in less than one year generally approximates fair value due to the short maturities. As of December 31, 2018 , the Company held $300.0 million of repurchase agreements, $50.0 million of FHLB advances and $290.0 million of revolving credit facilities that are considered long-term. The Company’s long-term repurchase agreements, FHLB advances and revolving credit facilities have floating rates based on an index plus a spread and, for members of the FHLB, the credit spread is typically consistent with those demanded in the market. Accordingly, the interest rates on these borrowings are at market and thus carrying value approximates fair value. The Company categorizes the fair value measurement of these liabilities as Level 2. • Convertible senior notes are carried at their unpaid principal balance, net of any unamortized deferred issuance costs. The Company estimates the fair value of its convertible senior notes using the market transaction price nearest to December 31, 2018 . The Company categorizes the fair value measurement of these assets as Level 2. The following table presents the carrying values and estimated fair values of assets and liabilities that are required to be recorded or disclosed at fair value at December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 .

Advances from Federal Home Loan Banks [Abstract] | |
Federal Home Loan Bank of Des Moines Advances | Federal Home Loan Bank of Des Moines Advances The Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, TH Insurance Holdings Company LLC, or TH Insurance, is a member of the FHLB. As a member of the FHLB, TH Insurance has access to a variety of products and services offered by the FHLB, including secured advances. As of December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 , TH Insurance had $0.9 billion and $1.2 billion in outstanding secured advances with a weighted average borrowing rate of 2.79% and 1.79% , respectively. As of December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 , TH Insurance had an additional $2.7 billion and $2.2 billion of available uncommitted capacity for borrowings, respectively, insofar as TH Insurance holds adequate total assets to support a new advance. To the extent TH Insurance has uncommitted capacity, it may be adjusted at the sole discretion of the FHLB. The ability to borrow from the FHLB is subject to the Company’s continued creditworthiness, pledging of sufficient eligible collateral to secure advances, and compliance with certain agreements with the FHLB. Each advance requires approval by the FHLB and is secured by collateral in accordance with the FHLB’s credit and collateral guidelines, as may be revised from time to time by the FHLB. Eligible collateral may include conventional 1-4 family residential mortgage loans, Agency RMBS and certain non-Agency securities with a rating of A and above. On January 11, 2016, the Federal Housing Finance Agency, or FHFA, released a final rule regarding membership in the Federal Home Loan Bank system. Among other effects, the final rule excludes captive insurers from membership eligibility, including the Company’s subsidiary member, TH Insurance. Since TH Insurance was admitted as a member in 2013, it is eligible for a membership grace period that runs through February 19, 2021, during which new advances or renewals that mature beyond the grace period will be prohibited; however, any existing advances that mature beyond this grace period will be permitted to remain in place subject to their terms insofar as the Company maintains good standing with the FHLB. If any new advances or renewals occur, TH Insurance’s outstanding advances will be limited to 40% of its total assets. At December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 , FHLB advances had the following remaining maturities: (in thousands) December 31, December 31, ≤ 1 year $ 815,024 $ — > 1 and ≤ 3 years — 815,024 > 3 and ≤ 5 years — — > 5 and ≤ 10 years — — > 10 years 50,000 400,000 Total $ 865,024 $ 1,215,024 The following table summarizes assets at carrying values that are pledged or restricted as collateral for the future payment obligations of FHLB advances: (in thousands) December 31, December 31, Available-for-sale securities, at fair value $ 917,492 $ 1,210,715 Due from counterparties — 62,959 Total $ 917,492 $ 1,273,674 The FHLB retains the right to mark the underlying collateral for FHLB advances to fair value. A reduction in the value of pledged assets would require the Company to provide additional collateral. In addition, as a condition to membership in the FHLB, the Company is required to purchase and hold a certain amount of FHLB stock, which is based, in part, upon the outstanding principal balance of advances from the FHLB. At December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 , the Company had stock in the FHLB totaling $40.8 million and $53.8 million , respectively, which is included in other assets on the consolidated balance sheets. FHLB stock is considered a non-marketable, long-term investment, is carried at cost and is subject to recoverability testing under applicable accounting standards. This stock can only be redeemed or sold at its par value, and only to the FHLB. Accordingly, when evaluating FHLB stock for impairment, the Company considers the ultimate recoverability of the par value rather than recognizing temporary declines in value.

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure | Commitments and Contingencies The following represent the material commitments and contingencies of the Company as of December 31, 2018 : Management agreement. The Company pays PRCM Advisers a management fee equal to 1.5% per annum, calculated and payable quarterly in arrears, of the Company’s stockholders’ equity. For purposes of calculating the management fee, the Company’s stockholders’ equity means the sum of the net proceeds from all issuances of the Company’s equity securities since inception (allocated on a pro rata daily basis for such issuances during the fiscal quarter of any such issuance), plus the Company’s retained earnings at the end of the most recently completed calendar quarter (without taking into account any non-cash equity compensation expense incurred in current or prior periods), less the consolidated stockholders’ equity of Granite Point and its subsidiaries during the time Granite Point was consolidated on the Company’s balance sheet, the weighted average cost basis of Granite Point common stock purchased, the outstanding principal balance of the promissory note due from the sale of Granite Point preferred stock and any amount that the Company has paid for repurchases of its common stock since inception, and excluding any unrealized gains, losses or other items that do not affect realized net income (regardless of whether such items are included in other comprehensive income or loss, or in net income). In connection with the acquisition of CYS, the Management Agreement was amended to (i) reduce PRCM Advisers’ base management fee with respect to the additional equity under management resulting from the merger to 0.75% from the effective time through the first anniversary of the effective time and (ii) for the fiscal quarter in which closing of the merger occured, to make a one-time downward adjustment of Pine River’s management fees payable by Two Harbors for such quarter by $15.0 million to offset the cash consideration payable to stockholders of CYS, plus an additional downward adjustment of up to $3.3 million for certain transaction-related expenses. This amount will be adjusted to exclude one-time events pursuant to changes in U.S. GAAP, and certain non-cash items after discussions between PRCM Advisers and the Company’s independent directors and approval by a majority of the Company’s independent directors. To the extent asset impairment reduces the Company’s retained earnings at the end of any completed calendar quarter; it will reduce the management fee for such quarter. The Company’s stockholders’ equity for the purposes of calculating the management fee could be greater than the amount of stockholders’ equity shown on the consolidated financial statements. The current term of the management agreement expires on October 28, 2019 , and automatically renews for successive one-year terms annually until terminated in accordance with the terms of the agreement. The Company reimburses PRCM Advisers for (i) the Company’s allocable share of the compensation paid by PRCM Advisers to its personnel serving as the Company’s principal financial officer and general counsel and personnel employed by PRCM Advisers as in-house legal, tax, accounting, consulting, auditing, administrative, information technology, valuation, computer programming and development and back-office resources to the Company, and (ii) any amounts for personnel of PRCM Adviser’s affiliates arising under a shared facilities and services agreement. Upon termination of the management agreement by the Company without cause or by PRCM Advisers due to the Company’s material breach of the management agreement, the Company is required to pay a termination fee equal to three times the sum of the average annual base management fee earned by PRCM Advisers during the 24-month period immediately preceding the date of termination, calculated as of the end of the most recently completed fiscal quarter prior to the date of termination. Employment contracts. The Company does not directly employ any personnel. Instead, the Company relies on the resources of PRCM Advisers to conduct the Company’s operations. Expense reimbursements to PRCM Advisers are made in cash on a quarterly basis following the end of each quarter. Legal and regulatory. From time to time, the Company may be subject to liability under laws and government regulations and various claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. Liabilities are established for legal claims when payments associated with the claims become probable and the costs can be reasonably estimated. The actual costs of resolving legal claims may be substantially higher or lower than the amounts established for those claims. Based on information currently available, management is not aware of any legal or regulatory claims that would have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and therefore no accrual is required as of December 31, 2018 |

Effective November 1, 2017 (the date the 33.1 million shares of Granite Point common stock were distributed to the Company’s common stockholders), the Company no longer had a controlling interest in Granite Point and, therefore, deconsolidated Granite Point and its subsidiaries from its financial statements and reclassified all of Granite Point’s prior period assets, liabilities and results of operations to discontinued operations. Dividend Reinvestment and Direct Stock Purchase Plan The Company sponsors a dividend reinvestment and direct stock purchase plan through which stockholders may purchase additional shares of the Company’s common stock by reinvesting some or all of the cash dividends received on shares of the Company’s common stock. Stockholders may also make optional cash purchases of shares of the Company’s common stock subject to certain limitations detailed in the plan prospectus. The plan allows for the issuance of up to an aggregate of 3,750,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. As of December 31, 2018 , 227,852 shares have been issued under the plan for total proceeds of approximately $4.4 million , of which 28,711 , 27,194 and 30,301 shares were issued for total proceeds of $0.4 million , $0.5 million and $0.5 million during the years ended December 31, 2018 , 2017 and 2016 , respectively. Share Repurchase Program The Company’s share repurchase program allows for the repurchase of up to an aggregate of 37,500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. Shares may be repurchased from time to time through privately negotiated transactions or open market transactions, pursuant to a trading plan in accordance with Rules 10b5-1 and 10b-18 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, or by any combination of such methods. The manner, price, number and timing of share repurchases are subject to a variety of factors, including market conditions and applicable SEC rules. The share repurchase program does not require the purchase of any minimum number of shares, and, subject to SEC rules, purchases may be commenced or suspended at any time without prior notice. The share repurchase program does not have an expiration date. As of December 31, 2018 , a total of 12,067,500 shares had been repurchased by the Company under the program for an aggregate cost of $200.4 million ; of these, 4,010,000 shares were repurchased for a total cost of $61.3 million during the year ended December 31, 2016 . No shares were repurchased during the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 . At-the-Market Offering As of December 31, 2018, the Company was party to an equity distribution agreement under which the Company was authorized to sell up to an aggregate of 10,000,000 shares of its common stock from time to time in any method permitted by law deemed to be an “at the market” offering as defined in Rule 415 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act. As of December 31, 2018 , 3,792,935 shares of common stock had been sold under the equity distribution agreement for total accumulated net proceeds of approximately $77.6 million . No shares were sold during the years ended December 31, 2018 , 2017 and 2016 . Subsequent to year-end, the Company terminated its prior equity distribution agreement and entered into a new equity distribution agreement with a total of 35,000,000 shares authorized for issuance.

Equity Incentive Plan | Equity Incentive Plan The Company’s Plan provides incentive compensation to attract and retain qualified directors, officers, advisors, consultants and other personnel, including PRCM Advisers and affiliates and employees of PRCM Advisers and its affiliates, and any joint venture affiliates of the Company. The Plan is administered by the compensation committee of the Company’s board of directors. The compensation committee has the full authority to administer and interpret the Plan, to authorize the granting of awards, to determine the eligibility of directors, officers, advisors, consultants and other personnel, including PRCM Advisers and affiliates and personnel of PRCM Advisers and its affiliates, and any joint venture affiliates of the Company, to receive an award, to determine the number of shares of common stock to be covered by each award (subject to the individual participant limitations provided in the Plan), to determine the terms, provisions and conditions of each award (which may not be inconsistent with the terms of the Plan), to prescribe the form of instruments evidencing awards and to take any other actions and make all other determinations that it deems necessary or appropriate in connection with the Plan or the administration or interpretation thereof. In connection with this authority, the compensation committee may, among other things, establish performance goals that must be met in order for awards to be granted or to vest, or for the restrictions on any such awards to lapse. The Company’s Plan provides for grants of restricted common stock, phantom shares, dividend equivalent rights and other equity-based awards, subject to a ceiling of 6,500,000 shares available for issuance under the Plan. The Plan allows for the Company’s board of directors to expand the types of awards available under the Plan to include long-term incentive plan units in the future. If an award granted under the Plan expires or terminates, the shares subject to any portion of the award that expires or terminates without having been exercised or paid, as the case may be, will again become available for the issuance of additional awards. Unless earlier terminated by the Company’s board of directors, no new award may be granted under the Plan after the tenth anniversary of the date that such Plan was initially approved by the Company’s board of directors. No award may be granted under the Plan to any person who, assuming payment of all awards held by such person, would own or be deemed to own more than 9.8% of the outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock. All per share amounts, common shares outstanding and restricted shares for all periods presented reflect the Company’s one-for-two reverse stock split effected on November 1, 2017 (refer to Note 16 - Stockholders’ Equity for additional information). During the years ended December 31, 2018 , 2017 and 2016 , the Company granted 55,553 , 34,559 and 40,869 shares of common stock, respectively, to its independent directors pursuant to the Plan. The estimated fair value of these awards was $15.48 , $19.82 and $16.86 per share on grant date, based on the adjusted closing price of the Company’s common stock on the NYSE on such date. The grants vested immediately. Additionally, during the years ended December 31, 2018 , 2017 and 2016 , the Company granted 941,371 , 637,286 and 968,761 shares of restricted common stock, respectively, to key employees of PRCM Advisers pursuant to the terms of the Plan and the associated award agreements. The estimated fair value of these awards was $15.12 , $17.48 and $15.04 per share on grant date, based on the adjusted closing market price of the Company’s common stock on the NYSE on such date. The shares underlying the grants vest in three equal annual installments commencing on the first anniversary of the grant date, as long as such grantee complies with the terms and conditions of his or her applicable restricted stock award agreement. During the year ended December 31, 2016, in connection with the restructuring activities, certain agreements were forfeited and re-granted with accelerated vesting terms, in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation - Stock Compensation .

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Income Taxes | Income Taxes For the years ended December 31, 2018 , 2017 and 2016 , the Company qualified to be taxed as a REIT under the Code for U.S. federal income tax purposes. As long as the Company qualifies as a REIT, the Company generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income taxes on its taxable income to the extent it annually distributes its net taxable income to stockholders, and does not engage in prohibited transactions. The Company intends to distribute 100% of its REIT taxable income and comply with all requirements to continue to qualify as a REIT. The majority of states also recognize the Company’s REIT status. The Company’s TRSs file separate tax returns and are fully taxed as standalone U.S. C-corporations. The tables below reflect the net taxes accrued at the TRS level and the tax attributes included in the consolidated financial statements. It is assumed that the Company will retain its REIT status and will incur no REIT level taxation as it intends to comply with the REIT regulations and annual distribution requirements. Certain activities the Company performs may produce income that will not be qualifying income for REIT purposes. These activities include the designated portion of MSR treated as normal mortgage servicing, residential mortgage loans, certain derivative financial instruments and other risk-management instruments. The Company has designated its TRSs to engage in these activities. The following table summarizes the tax (benefit) provision from continuing operations recorded at the taxable subsidiary level for the years ended December 31, 2018 , 2017 and 2016 : Year Ended December 31, (in thousands) 2018 2017 2016 Current tax (benefit) provision: Federal $ 52 $ 492 $ (1,616 ) State 1 57 164 Total current tax (benefit) provision 53 549 (1,452 ) Deferred tax (benefit) provision 41,770 (11,031 ) 13,766 Total (benefit from) provision for income taxes $ 41,823 $ (10,482 ) $ 12,314 During the year ended December 31, 2018 , the Company’s TRSs recognized a provision for income taxes of $41.8 million , which was primarily due to realized gains on sales of AFS securities and gains recognized on MSR held in the TRSs as well as the write-down of net deferred tax assets resulting from the deemed liquidation of one of the Company’s TRSs due to its TRS election revocation, offset by net losses incurred on derivative instruments held in the TRS. During the year ended December 31, 2017 , the Company’s TRSs recognized a benefit from income taxes of $10.5 million , which was primarily due to the remeasurement of federal net deferred tax assets resulting from the permanent reduction in the U.S. statutory corporate tax rate from 35% to 21% , realized losses on sales of AFS securities and net losses incurred on derivative instruments held in the Company’s TRSs. The Company’s taxable income before dividend distributions differs from its pre-tax net income for U.S. GAAP purposes primarily due to unrealized gains and losses, the recognition of credit losses for U.S. GAAP purposes but not tax purposes, differences in timing of income recognition due to market discount, and original issue discount and the calculations surrounding each. These book to tax differences in the REIT are not reflected in the consolidated financial statements as the Company intends to retain its REIT status. The following is a reconciliation of the statutory federal and state rates to the effective rates, for the years ended December 31, 2018 , 2017 and 2016 : Year Ended December 31, 2018 2017 2016 (dollars in thousands) Amount Percent Amount Percent Amount Percent Computed income tax expense at federal rate $ (518 ) 21 % $ 104,215 35 % $ 127,957 35 % State taxes, net of federal benefit, if applicable 1 — % 37 — % 106 — % Permanent differences in taxable income from GAAP net income (1) 28,414 (1,152 )% 1,208 — % 401 — % Dividends paid deduction 13,926 (565 )% (115,942 ) (39 )% (116,150 ) (32 )% (Benefit from) provision for income taxes/ Effective Tax Rate (2) $ 41,823 (1,696 )% $ (10,482 ) (4 )% $ 12,314 3 % ____________________ (1) For the year ended December 31, 2018 , permanent differences include a provision of 17.8 million related to the write-down of the net deferred tax assets resulting from the deemed liquidation of three of the Company’s TRSs due to their election revocation, offset by the reversal of the valuation allowance upon TRS revocation. For the year ended December 31, 2017 , permanent differences include a provision of $17.5 million related to the effect of the federal tax reform statutory rate change from 35% to 21% . (2) The provision for (benefit from) income taxes is recorded at the taxable subsidiary level. The Company’s permanent differences in taxable income from GAAP net (loss) income in the year ended December 31, 2018 was primarily due to the intercompany sale of RMBS between the Company’s TRS and the REIT, as well as the write-down of net deferred tax assets resulting from the deemed liquidation of three of the Company’s TRSs due to their TRS election revocation, offset by the reversal of the valuation allowance upon TRS revocation. Additionally, the Company’s recurring permanent differences in taxable income from GAAP net (loss) income in the years ended December 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016 were due to a difference in the dividends paid deduction for tax, compensation expense related to restricted stock dividends and, for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, net losses incurred by consolidated securitization trusts that are not subject to federal taxes. The Company’s consolidated balance sheets, as of December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 contain the following current and deferred tax liabilities and assets, which are included in other assets, and are recorded at the taxable subsidiary level: (in thousands) December 31, December 31, Income taxes receivable Federal income taxes receivable $ 690 $ 130 State and local income taxes receivable — — Income taxes receivable, net 690 130 Deferred tax assets (liabilities) Deferred tax asset 17,196 50,419 Deferred tax liability (18,333 ) (24,463 ) Total net deferred tax (liabilities) assets (1,137 ) 25,956 Total tax assets (liabilities), net $ (447 ) $ 26,086 Deferred Tax Assets and Liabilities Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effect of temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities for financial reporting and tax purposes at the TRS level. Components of the Company’s deferred tax liabilities and assets as of December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 were as follows: (in thousands) December 31, December 31, Available-for-sale securities $ 19 $ (11,917 ) Mortgage servicing rights (18,333 ) (9,054 ) Derivative assets and liabilities 33 4,870 Other assets 9 139 Other liabilities 652 545 Intangibles 101 108 Alternative minimum tax credit — 2,386 Net operating loss carryforward 16,354 21,853 Capital loss carryforward 28 19,766 Total deferred tax (liabilities) assets (1,137 ) 28,696 Valuation allowance — (2,740 ) Total net deferred tax (liabilities) assets $ (1,137 ) $ 25,956 As of December 31, 2018 , the Company has not recorded a valuation allowance for any portion of its deferred tax assets as it does not believe, at a more likely than not level, that any portion of its deferred tax assets will not be realized. At December 31, 2017 , a $2.7 million valuation allowance was recorded because the Company determined that it was more likely than not that the associated deferred tax assets would not be realized. Of the TRS net operating loss deferred tax asset carryforward of $16.4 million , $2.4 million is scheduled to expire December 31, 2035, $12.3 million is scheduled to expire December 31, 2036, $1.7 million is scheduled to expire December 31, 2037. Based on the Company’s evaluation, it has been concluded that there are no significant uncertain tax positions requiring recognition in the Company’s consolidated financial statements of a contingent tax liability for uncertain tax positions. Additionally, there were no amounts accrued for penalties or interest as of or during the periods presented in these consolidated |

Related Party Transactions | Related Party Transactions The following summary provides disclosure of the material transactions with affiliates of the Company. In accordance with the Management Agreement between the Company and PRCM Advisers dated as of October 28, 2009 and subsequently amended, the Company incurred $47.8 million , $40.5 million and $39.3 million as a management fee to PRCM Advisers for the years ended December 31, 2018 , 2017 and 2016 , which represents approximately 1.5% of stockholders’ equity on an annualized basis as defined by the Management Agreement.

In connection with the acquisition of CYS, the Management Agreement was amended to (i) reduce PRCM Advisers’ base management fee with respect to the additional equity under management resulting from the merger to 0.75% from the effective time through the first anniversary of the effective time and (ii) for the fiscal quarter in which closing of the merger occurred, to make a one-time downward adjustment of Pine River’s management fees payable by Two Harbors for such quarter by $15.0 million to offset the cash consideration payable to stockholders of CYS, plus an additional downward adjustment of up to $3.3 million for certain transaction-related expenses. For the year ended December 31, 2018, the total downward adjustment to management fees was $17.5 million . The Company does not anticipate any further downward adjustments to management fees for transaction-related expenses.

Consolidation and Basis of Presentation | Consolidation and Basis of Presentation The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of all subsidiaries; inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated. The accounting and reporting policies of the Company conform to U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or U.S. GAAP. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. All per share amounts, common shares outstanding and restricted shares for all prior periods presented have been adjusted on a retroactive basis to reflect the Company’s one-for-two reverse stock split effected on November 1, 2017 (refer to Note 16 - Stockholders’ Equity for additional information). Due to its controlling ownership interest in Granite Point through November 1, 2017, the Company consolidated Granite Point on its financial statements. Effective November 1, 2017 (the date the 33.1 million shares of Granite Point common stock were distributed to the Company’s common stockholders), the Company no longer had a controlling interest in Granite Point and, therefore, deconsolidated Granite Point and its subsidiaries from its financial statements and reclassified all of Granite Point’s prior period assets, liabilities and results of operations to discontinued operations. The Company retains debt securities and excess servicing rights purchased from securitization trusts sponsored by either third parties or the Company’s subsidiaries. The securitization trusts are considered variable interest entities, or VIEs, for financial reporting purposes and, thus, are reviewed for consolidation under the applicable consolidation guidance. Whenever the Company has both the power to direct the activities of a trust that most significantly impact the entities’ performance, and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits of the entities that could be significant, the Company consolidates the trust. During the majority of 2017, the Company retained the most subordinate security in each of the securitization trusts, which gave the Company the power to direct the activities of the trusts that most significantly impact the trusts’ performance and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits of the securitization trusts that could be significant. As a result, the Company consolidated all of the securitization trusts, including the underlying mortgage loans held by the trusts (residential mortgage loans held-for-investment) and the associated debt (collateralized borrowings), on its consolidated balance sheet. During the fourth quarter of 2017, the Company sold all of the retained subordinated securities thereby removing the Company’s power to direct the activities of the trusts and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits of the securitization trusts. As a result, the securitization trusts are no longer consolidated on the Company’s consolidated |
Use of Estimates | Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make a number of significant estimates. These include estimates of fair value of certain assets and liabilities, amount and timing of credit losses, prepayment rates, the period of time during which the Company anticipates an increase in the fair values of real estate securities sufficient to recover unrealized losses in those securities, and other estimates that affect the reported amounts of certain assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of certain revenues and expenses during the reported period. It is likely that changes in these estimates ( e.g. |
Available-for-Sale Securities, at Fair Value | Available-for-Sale Securities, at Fair Value The Company invests primarily in mortgage pass-through certificates, collateralized mortgage obligations and other residential mortgage-backed securities representing interests in or obligations backed by pools of mortgage loans (collectively “Agency RMBS”) issued by the Federal National Mortgage Association, or Fannie Mae, the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation, or Freddie Mac, and the Government National Mortgage Association, or Ginnie Mae, or collectively, the government sponsored entities, or GSEs. The Company also invests in securities that are not issued by the GSEs, or non-Agency securities, and, from time to time, U.S. Treasuries. The Company classifies its Agency RMBS and non-Agency securities, excluding inverse interest-only Agency securities classified as derivatives for purposes of U.S. GAAP, as AFS, investments. Although the Company generally intends to hold most of its investment securities until maturity, it may, from time to time, sell any of its investment securities as part of its overall management of its portfolio. Accordingly, the Company classifies all of its securities as AFS, including its interest-only strips, which represent the Company’s right to receive a specified portion of the contractual interest flows of specific Agency or non-Agency securities. All assets classified as AFS, excluding Agency interest-only mortgage-backed securities, are reported at estimated fair value with unrealized gains and losses, excluding other than temporary impairments, included in accumulated other comprehensive income, on an after-tax basis. On July 1, 2015, the Company elected the fair value option for Agency interest-only securities acquired on or after such date. All Agency interest-only securities acquired on or after July 1, 2015 are carried at estimated fair value with changes in fair value, excluding other than temporary impairments, recorded as a component of loss on investment securities in the consolidated statements of comprehensive (loss) income . Fair value is determined under the guidance of Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, or ASC 820. The Company determines the fair value of its RMBS that are issued or guaranteed as to principal and/or interest by a federally chartered corporation, such as Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac, or an agency of the U.S. government, such as Ginnie Mae (collectively, “Agency RMBS”), based upon prices obtained from third-party pricing providers or broker quotes received using the bid price, which are both deemed indicative of market activity. In determining the fair value of its non-Agency securities, management judgment is used to arrive at fair value that considers prices obtained from third-party pricing providers, broker quotes received and other applicable market data. If listed price data is not available or insufficient, then fair value is based upon internally developed models that are primarily based on observable market-based inputs but also include unobservable market data inputs. See Note 9 - Fair Value of these notes to the consolidated financial statements for details on fair value measurement. Investment securities transactions are recorded on the trade date. The cost basis for realized gains and losses on sales of investment securities are determined on the first-in, first-out, or FIFO, method. Interest income on securities is accrued based on the outstanding principal balance and their contractual terms. Premiums and discounts associated with Agency RMBS and non-Agency securities rated AA and higher at the time of purchase, are amortized into interest income over the life of such securities using the effective yield method. Adjustments to premium amortization are made for actual prepayment activity. The Company estimates prepayments for its Agency interest-only securities, which represent the Company’s right to receive a specified portion of the contractual interest flows of specific Agency securities. As a result, if prepayments increase (or are expected to increase), the Company will accelerate the rate of amortization on the premiums. Interest income on the non-Agency securities that were purchased at a discount to par value and were rated below AA at the time of purchase is recognized based on the security’s effective interest rate. The effective interest rate on these securities is based on the projected cash flows from each security, which are estimated based on the Company’s observation of current information and events and include assumptions related to interest rates, prepayment rates, and the timing and amount of credit losses. On at least a quarterly basis, the Company reviews and, if appropriate, makes adjustments to its cash flow projections based on input and analysis received from external sources, internal models, and its judgment about interest rates, prepayment rates, the timing and amount of credit losses, and other factors. Changes in cash flows from those originally projected, or from those estimated at the last evaluation, may result in a prospective change in the yield/interest income recognized on such securities. Actual maturities of the AFS securities are affected by the contractual lives of the associated mortgage collateral, periodic payments of principal, and prepayments of principal. Therefore actual maturities of AFS securities are generally shorter than stated contractual maturities. Stated contractual maturities are generally greater than ten years. Based on the projected cash flows from the Company’s non-Agency securities purchased at a discount to par value, a portion of the purchase discount may be designated as credit protection against future credit losses and, therefore, not accreted into interest income. The amount designated as credit discount may be adjusted over time, based on the actual performance of the security, its underlying collateral, actual and projected cash flow from such collateral, economic conditions, and other factors. If the performance of a security with a credit discount is more favorable than forecasted, a portion of the amount designated as credit discount may be accreted into interest income prospectively. Conversely, if the performance of a security with a credit discount is less favorable than forecasted, an impairment charge and write-down of such security to a new cost basis results. The Company evaluates its investment securities, on a quarterly basis, to assess whether a decline in the fair value of an AFS security below the Company’s amortized cost basis is an other-than-temporary impairment, or OTTI. The presence of OTTI is based upon a fair value decline below a security’s amortized cost basis and a corresponding adverse change in expected cash flows due to credit related factors as well as non-credit factors, such as changes in interest rates and market spreads. Impairment is considered other-than-temporary if an entity (i) intends to sell the security, (ii) will more likely than not be required to sell the security before it recovers in value, or (iii) does not expect to recover the security’s amortized cost basis, even if the entity does not intend to sell the security. Under these scenarios, the impairment is other-than-temporary and the full amount of impairment should be recognized currently in earnings and the cost basis of the investment security is adjusted. However, if an entity does not intend to sell the impaired debt security and it is more likely than not that it will not be required to sell before recovery, the OTTI is separated into (i) the estimated amount relating to credit loss, or credit component, and (ii) the amount relating to all other factors, or non-credit component. Only the estimated credit loss amount is recognized currently in earnings, with the remainder of the loss amount recognized in other comprehensive (loss) income |
Mortgage Servicing Rights, at Fair Value | Mortgage Servicing Rights, at Fair Value The Company’s MSR represent the right to service mortgage loans. The Company and its subsidiaries do not originate or directly service mortgage loans, and instead contract with appropriately licensed subservicers to handle substantially all servicing functions in the name of the subservicer for the loans underlying the Company’s MSR. However, as an owner and manager of MSR, the Company may be obligated to fund advances of principal and interest payments due to third-party owners of the loans, but not yet received from the individual borrowers. These advances are reported as servicing advances within the other assets line item on the consolidated balance sheets. MSR are reported at fair value on the consolidated balance sheets. Although MSR transactions are observable in the marketplace, the valuation includes unobservable market data inputs (prepayment speeds, delinquency levels and discount rates). Changes in the fair value of MSR as well as servicing fee income and servicing expenses are reported on the consolidated statements of comprehensive (loss) income |
Cash and Cash Equivalents | Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and cash equivalents include cash held in bank accounts and cash held in money market funds on an overnight basis. |
Restricted Cash | Restricted Cash Restricted cash represents the Company’s cash held by counterparties as collateral against the Company’s securities, certain derivative instruments and/or repurchase agreements. Also included is the cash balance held pursuant to a letter of credit on the New York office lease. Cash held by counterparties as collateral, which resides in non-interest bearing accounts, is not available to the Company for general corporate purposes, but may be applied against amounts due to security, derivative or repurchase counterparties or returned to the Company when the collateral requirements are exceeded or, at the maturity of the derivative or repurchase agreement. |
Accrued Interest Receivable | Accrued Interest Receivable Accrued interest receivable represents interest that is due and payable to the Company. Cash interest is generally received within 30 days of recording the receivable. |
Due from/to Counterparties, net | Due from/to Counterparties, net Due from counterparties includes cash held by counterparties for payment of principal and interest as well as cash held by counterparties as collateral against certain of the Company’s derivatives and/or repurchase agreements but represents excess capacity and deemed unrestricted and a receivable from the counterparty as of the balance sheet date. Due from counterparties also includes cash receivable from counterparties for sales of MSR pending final transfer and settlement. Due to counterparties includes cash payable by the Company upon settlement of trade positions as well as cash deposited to and held by the Company as collateral against certain of the Company’s derivatives and/or repurchase agreements but represents a payable to the counterparty as of the balance sheet date. Due to counterparties also includes purchase price holdbacks on MSR acquisitions for early prepayment or default provisions, collateral exceptions and other contractual terms. |
Derivative Financial Instruments, at Fair Value | Derivative Financial Instruments, at Fair Value In accordance with ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging, as amended and interpreted, or ASC 815, all derivative financial instruments, whether designated for hedging relationships or not, are recorded on the consolidated balance sheets as assets or liabilities and carried at fair value. At the inception of a derivative contract, the Company determines whether the instrument will be part of a qualifying hedge accounting relationship or whether the Company will account for the contract as a trading instrument. Due to the volatility of the credit markets and difficulty in effectively matching pricing or cash flows, the Company has elected to treat all current derivative contracts as trading instruments. Changes in fair value as well as the accrual and settlement of interest associated with derivatives accounted for as trading instruments are reported in the consolidated statements of comprehensive (loss) income as gain (loss) on interest rate swap, cap and swaption agreements or (loss) gain on other derivative instruments depending on the type of derivative instrument. The Company enters into interest rate derivative contracts for a variety of reasons, including minimizing fluctuations in earnings or market values on certain assets or liabilities that may be caused by changes in interest rates. The Company may, at times, enter into various forward contracts including short securities, Agency to-be-announced securities, or TBAs, options, futures, swaps, and caps. Due to the nature of these instruments, they may be in a receivable/asset position or a payable/liability position at the end of an accounting period. Amounts payable to and receivable from the same party under contracts may be offset as long as the following conditions are met: (a) each of the two parties owes the other determinable amounts; (b) the reporting party has the right to offset the amount owed with the amount owed by the other party; (c) the reporting party intends to offset; and (d) the right of offset is enforceable by law. If the aforementioned conditions are not met, amounts payable to and receivable from are presented by the Company on a gross basis in its consolidated balance sheets. The Company’s centrally cleared interest rate swaps require that the Company posts an “initial margin” amount determined by the clearing exchange, which is generally intended to be set at a level sufficient to protect the exchange from the interest rate swap’s maximum estimated single-day price movement. The Company also exchanges “variation margin” based upon daily changes in fair value, as measured by the exchange. As a result of amendments to rules governing certain central clearing activities, the exchange of variation margin is a settlement of the interest rate swap, as opposed to pledged collateral. Accordingly, beginning in the first quarter of 2018 and in subsequent periods, the Company accounts for the receipt or payment of variation margin on interest rate swaps as a direct reduction to the carrying value of the interest rate swap asset or liability. As of December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 , variation margin pledged or received is netted on a counterparty basis and classified within restricted cash, due from counterparties, or due to counterparties on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. The Company has provided specific disclosure regarding the location and amounts of derivative instruments in the consolidated financial statements and how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for. See Note 7 - Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities |
Repurchase Agreements and Reverse Repurchase Agreements | Repurchase Agreements The Company finances certain of its investment securities and MSR through the use of repurchase agreements. These repurchase agreements are generally short-term debt, which expire within one year. As of December 31, 2018 The Company may borrow U.S. Treasury securities through reverse repurchase transactions under its master repurchase agreements to cover short sales. The Company accounts for these reverse repurchase agreements as securities borrowing transactions and records them at amortized cost, which approximates fair value due to their short-term nature, on its consolidated |
Commercial Real Estate Assets (of Discontinued Operations) | Commercial Real Estate Assets (of Discontinued Operations) Due to the Company’s controlling ownership interest in Granite Point through November 1, 2017, its financial condition and results of operations through such date reflect Granite Point’s commercial strategy, which includes as target assets first mortgages, mezzanine loans, B-notes and preferred equity. These commercial real estate assets have been reclassified to assets of discontinued operations on the consolidated balance sheets. Interest income on commercial real estate assets has been reclassified to income from discontinued operations on the consolidated statements of comprehensive (loss) income . The Company’s commercial real estate assets were reported at cost, net of any unamortized acquisition premiums or discounts, loan fees and origination costs as applicable, unless the assets were deemed impaired. No impairments were recorded while these loans were held by the Company. |
Federal Home Loan Bank of Des Moines Advances and Stock Holdings | Federal Home Loan Bank of Des Moines Advances and Stock Holdings The Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, TH Insurance Holdings Company LLC, or TH Insurance, is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Des Moines, or the FHLB. As a member of the FHLB, TH Insurance has access to a variety of products and services offered by the FHLB, including secured advances. The Company’s secured advances from the FHLB may have both short-term and long-term maturities. The advances with less than five year terms generally bear interest rates of a spread over one- or three-month LIBOR and the advances with 20-year terms generally bear interest rates of or one- or three-month MOVR, or the FHLB member option variable-rate. FHLB advances are treated as secured financing transactions and are carried at their contractual amounts. |
Revolving Credit Facilities | Revolving Credit Facilities To finance MSR, the Company enters into revolving credit facilities collateralized by pledged MSR. Borrowings under these revolving credit facilities that expire within one year are considered short-term debt. As of December 31, 2018 |
Convertible Senior Notes | Convertible Senior Notes Convertible senior notes include unsecured convertible debt that are carried at their unpaid principal balance, net of any unamortized deferred issuance costs, on the Company’s consolidated |
Accrued Interest Payable | Accrued Interest Payable Accrued interest payable represents interest that is due and payable to third parties. Interest is generally paid within 30 days to three months of recording the payable, based upon the Company’s remittance requirements. |
Deferred Tax Assets and Liabilities and Income Taxes | Deferred Tax Assets and Liabilities Income recognition for U.S. GAAP and tax differ in certain respects. These differences often reflect differing accounting treatments for tax and U.S. GAAP, such as accounting for discount and premium amortization, credit losses, asset impairments, recognition of certain operating expenses and certain valuation estimates. Some of these differences are temporary in nature and create timing mismatches between when taxable income is earned and the tax is paid versus when the earnings (losses) for U.S. GAAP purposes, or GAAP net (loss) income , are recognized and the tax provision is recorded. Some of these differences are permanent since certain income (or expense) may be recorded for tax purposes but not for U.S. GAAP purposes (or vice-versa). One such significant permanent difference is the Company’s ability as a REIT to deduct dividends paid to stockholders as an expense for tax purposes, but not for U.S. GAAP purposes. As a result of these temporary differences, the Company’s TRSs may recognize taxable income in periods prior or subsequent to when it recognizes income for U.S. GAAP purposes. When this occurs, the TRSs pay or defer the tax liability and establish deferred tax assets or deferred tax liabilities, respectively, for U.S. GAAP purposes. As the income is subsequently realized in future periods under U.S. GAAP, the deferred tax asset is recognized as an expense. Alternatively, as the TRSs realize the deferred taxable income, the deferred tax liability is recognized as a reduction to taxable income. The Company’s deferred tax assets and/or liabilities are generated solely by differences in GAAP net (loss) income and taxable income (loss) at our taxable subsidiaries. U.S. GAAP and tax differences in the REIT may create additional deferred tax assets and/or liabilities to the extent the Company does not distribute all of its taxable income. Income Taxes The Company has elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Code and the corresponding provisions of state law. To qualify as a REIT, the Company must distribute at least 90% of its annual REIT taxable income to stockholders (not including taxable income retained in its taxable subsidiaries) within the time frame set forth in the tax Code and the Company must also meet certain other requirements. In addition, because certain activities, if performed by the Company, may cause the Company to earn income which is not qualifying for the REIT gross income tests, the Company has formed TRSs, as defined in the Code, to engage in such activities. These TRSs’ activities are subject to income taxes as well as any REIT taxable income not distributed to stockholders. The Company assesses its tax positions for all open tax years and determines whether the Company has any material unrecognized liabilities in accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes . The Company records these liabilities to the extent the Company deems them more likely than not to be incurred. The Company classifies interest and penalties on material uncertain tax positions as interest expense and operating expense, respectively, in its consolidated statements of comprehensive (loss) income . The SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB 118”), which provides guidance on accounting for tax effects of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (“TCJA”), which was signed into law on December 22, 2017. SAB 118 provided a measurement period that should not extend beyond one year from the TCJA enactment date for companies to complete the accounting under ASC 740. In accordance with SAB 118, a company must reflect the income tax effects of those aspects of the Act for which the accounting under ASC 740 is complete. To the extent that a company’s accounting for certain income tax effects of the TCJA were incomplete but it was able to determine a reasonable estimate, it was required to record a provisional estimate to be included in the financial statements. . If a company could not determine a provisional estimate to be included in the financial statements, it continued to apply ASC 740 on the basis of the provision of the tax laws that were in effect immediately before the enactment of the TCJA. The TCJA significantly revised the U.S. corporate income tax by, among other things, lowering the federal income tax rate applicable to corporations from 35% to 21% and repealing the corporate alternative minimum tax. In addition, the deduction of net interest expense is limited for all businesses; provided that certain businesses, including real estate businesses, may elect not to be subject to such limitations and instead to depreciate their real property related assets over longer depreciable lives. This limitation could adversely affect our TRSs. The Company recorded a provisional tax provision of $17.5 million in the 2017 financial statements, which was included as a component of income tax expense from continuing operations. This amount represents the remeasurement of federal net deferred tax assets resulting from the permanent reduction in the U.S. statutory corporate tax rate from 35% to 21% |
Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) | Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) Current period net unrealized gains and losses on AFS securities, excluding Agency interest-only securities, are reported as components of accumulated other comprehensive income on the consolidated statements of stockholders’ equity and in the consolidated statements of comprehensive (loss) income |
Earnings Per Share | Earnings Per Share Basic and diluted (loss) earnings per share are computed by dividing net (loss) income attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares and potential common shares outstanding during the period. For both basic and diluted per share calculations, potential common shares represents issued and unvested shares of restricted stock, which have full rights to the common stock dividend declarations of the Company. If the assumed conversion of convertible notes into common shares is dilutive, diluted (loss) earnings per share is adjusted by adding back the periodic interest expense (net of any tax effects) associated with dilutive convertible notes to net (loss) income attributable to common stockholders and adding the shares issued in an assumed conversion to the diluted weighted average share count. All per share amounts, common shares outstanding and restricted shares for all periods presented reflect the Company’s one-for-two reverse stock split effected on November 1, 2017 (refer to Note 16 - Stockholders’ Equity |
Equity Incentive Plan | Equity Incentive Plan The Company’s Second Restated 2009 Equity Incentive Plan, or the Plan, provides incentive compensation to attract and retain qualified directors, officers, advisors, consultants and other personnel, including PRCM Advisers and its affiliates. The Plan is administered by the compensation committee of the Company’s board of directors. The Plan permits the granting of restricted shares of common stock, phantom shares, dividend equivalent rights and other equity-based awards. See Note 17 - Equity Incentive Plan for further details regarding the Plan. |
Asset Acquisition | Asset Acquisition In accordance with U.S. GAAP, the acquirer in a merger transaction is to evaluate whether substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or a group of similar identifiable assets. If that threshold is met, the set of acquired assets and associated activities is not deemed a business and is required to be accounted for as an asset acquisition. Upon completion of the merger with CYS on July 31, 2018, approximately 89% of the CYS assets acquired were Agency RMBS. The Company concluded that they were similar identifiable assets to be grouped to evaluate whether the “substantially all” threshold was met as the Agency RMBS are financial assets with similar risk characteristics associated with managing these assets. Given the concentration of the fair value of the Agency RMBS of the gross assets acquired, the Company concluded that the fair value of the gross assets acquired was concentrated in a group of similar identifiable assets and, therefore, the merger was accounted for as an asset acquisition. The financial results of CYS since the closing date of the acquisition have been included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Asset acquisitions are generally accounted for by allocating the cost of the acquisition plus direct transaction costs to the individual assets acquired, including identified intangible assets, and liabilities assumed on a relative fair value basis. This allocation may cause identified assets to be recognized at amounts that are greater than their fair values. However, “non-qualifying” assets, which include financial assets and other current assets, should not be assigned an amount greater than their fair value. The gross assets acquired in the merger consisted most significantly of financial assets and other current assets. The cost of the acquisition of CYS plus direct transaction costs exceeded gross assets acquired less liabilities assumed in the merger. As there were no meaningful nonfinancial assets and non-current assets in this transaction and no identified intangible assets to assign value, the excess consideration and transaction costs were recognized in the consolidated statements of comprehensive (loss) income |
Recently Issued and/or Adopted Accounting Standards | Recently Issued and/or Adopted Accounting Standards Revenue from Contracts with Customers In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, issued ASU No. 2014-09, which is a comprehensive revenue recognition standard that supersedes virtually all existing revenue guidance under U.S. GAAP. The standard’s core principle is that an entity will recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods and services. As a result of the issuance of ASU No. 2015-14 in August 2015 deferring the effective date of ASU No. 2014-09 by one year, the ASU is effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning on or after December 15, 2017, with early adoption prohibited. The Company has evaluated the new guidance and determined that interest income, gains and losses on financial instruments and income from servicing residential mortgage loans are outside the scope of ASC 606, Revenues from Contracts with Customers , or ASC 606. For income from servicing residential mortgage loans, the Company considered that the FASB Transition Resource Group members generally agreed that an entity should look to ASC 860, Transfers and Servicing , to determine the appropriate accounting for these fees and ASC 606 contains a scope exception for contracts that fall under ASC 860. As a result, the adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or financial statement disclosures. Lease Classification and Accounting In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, which requires lessees to recognize on their balance sheets both a lease liability for the obligation to make lease payments and a right-of-use asset for the right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. The ASU is effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning on or after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. The Company has determined this ASU will not have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or financial statement disclosures. Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, which changes the impairment model for most financial assets and certain other instruments. Valuation allowances for credit losses on AFS debt securities will be recognized, rather than direct reductions in the amortized cost of the investments, regardless of whether the impairment is considered to be other-than-temporary. The new model also requires the estimation of lifetime expected credit losses and corresponding recognition of allowance for losses on trade and other receivables, held-to-maturity debt securities, loans, and other instruments held at amortized cost. The ASU requires certain recurring disclosures and is effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning on or after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning on or after December 15, 2018. The Company is evaluating the adoption of this ASU to determine the impact it may have on its consolidated financial statements, which at the date of adoption, will establish an allowance for credit losses on AFS securities which will be derived from the current designated credit reserve with a resulting increase to amortized cost on the securities. The Company also expects adoption of this ASU to impact the recording for the purchase of certain non-Agency securities with purchased credit deterioration by recording an allowance for credit losses with an increase in amortized cost above the purchase price of the same amount. Subsequent changes in expected credit losses will be recognized immediately in earnings as a provision for credit losses until the allowance is reduced to zero. Further favorable changes will result in prospective yield adjustments. Clarifying the Definition of a Business In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-01, which changes the definition of a business to assist entities with evaluating when a set of transferred assets and activities is a business. The ASU requires an entity to evaluate if substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or a group of similar identifiable assets; if so, the set of transferred assets and activities is not a business. The guidance also requires a business to include at least one substantive process and narrows the definition of outputs by more closely aligning it with how outputs are described in ASC 606. The ASU is effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning on or after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted. The Company’s adoption of this ASU impacted how the Company accounted for the acquisition of CYS (see discussion above). Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-02, which permits entities to reclassify tax effects stranded in accumulated other comprehensive income as a result of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, or TCJA, to retained earnings and requires entities to disclose whether or not they elected to reclassify the tax effects related to the TCJA as well as their policy for releasing income tax effects from accumulated other comprehensive income. The ASU is effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning on or after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. Early adoption of this ASU was elected and applied by recording a cumulative-effect adjustment of $9.9 million to retained earnings, with the offsetting impact to accumulated other comprehensive income as of January 1, 2018. Accounting for Share-Based Payments to Nonemployees In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-07 to simplify the accounting for share-based payments to nonemployees by aligning it with the accounting for share-based payments to employees, with certain exceptions. Under the guidance, equity-classified nonemployee awards will be measured on and fixed at the grant date, rather than measured at fair value at each reporting date until the date at which the nonemployee’s performance is complete. The ASU is effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning on or after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. Early adoption of this ASU was elected on July 1, 2018 and applied by recording a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of January 1, 2018, which did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or financial statement disclosures. Fair Value Measurement Disclosure Requirements In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, which eliminates, adds and modifies certain disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. Under the guidance, entities are no longer required to disclose the amount of and reasons for transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, but public companies are required to disclose (1) the changes in unrealized gains and losses for the period included in other comprehensive income for recurring Level 3 fair value measurements of instruments held at the end of the reporting period and (2) the range and weighted average used to develop significant unobservable inputs for Level 3 fair value measurements. The ASU is effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning on or after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted. Early adoption of this ASU did not have an impact on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations but resulted in some modified financial statement disclosures.
