Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
Organization | Organization Western Asset Mortgage Capital Corporation, a Delaware corporation, and its subsidiaries (the "Company") commenced operations in May 2012. The Company invests in, finances and manages a diversified portfolio of real estate related securities, Whole Loans and other financial assets. The Company's portfolio is comprised of Agency CMBS, Agency RMBS (including TBAs), Non-Agency RMBS, Non-Agency CMBS, Non-Qualified Residential Whole Loans ("Non-QM"), Conforming Residential Whole Loans, Residential Bridge Loans and Commercial Loans. In addition, and to a significantly lesser extent, the Company has invested in other securities including certain Agency obligations that are not technically MBS as well as certain Non U.S. CMBS and in asset-backed securities ("ABS") investments secured by a portfolio of private student loans. The Company's investment strategy is based on Western Asset Management Company, LLC's (the "Manager") perspective of which mix of portfolio assets it believes provides the Company with the best risk-reward opportunities at any given time. The Manager will vary the allocation among various asset classes subject to maintaining the Company's qualification as a REIT and maintaining its exemption from the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"). These restrictions limit the Company's ability to invest in non-qualifying MBS, non-real estate assets and/or assets which are not secured by real estate. Accordingly, the Company's portfolio will continue to be principally invested in qualifying MBS, Whole Loans and other real estate related assets. The Company is externally managed by the Manager, an investment advisor registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). The Manager is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Legg Mason, Inc ("Legg Mason"). The Company operates and has elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust or "REIT" commencing with its taxable year ended December 31, 2012. |

Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Presentation and Consolidation The accompanying financial statements and related notes have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("GAAP"). The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its wholly -owned subsidiaries and variable interest entities ("VIEs") in which it is considered the primary beneficiary. All intercompany amounts between the Company and its subsidiaries and consolidated VIEs have been eliminated in consolidation. Variable Interest Entities VIEs are defined as entities that by design either lack sufficient equity for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support or are unable to direct the entity’s activities or are not exposed to the entity’s losses or entitled to its residual returns. The Company evaluates all of its interests in VIEs for consolidation. When the interests are determined to be variable interests, the Company assesses whether it is deemed the primary beneficiary. The primary beneficiary of a VIE is determined to be the party that has both the power to direct the activities of a VIE that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits of the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE. To assess whether the Company has the power to direct the activities of a VIE that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance, it considers all facts and circumstances, including its role in establishing the VIE and its ongoing rights and responsibilities. This assessment includes: first, identifying the activities that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance; and second, identifying which party, if any, has power over those activities. In general, the parties that make the most significant decisions affecting the VIE or have the right to unilaterally remove those decision makers is deemed to have the power to direct the activities of a VIE. To assess whether the Company has the obligation to absorb losses of the VIE or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE, it considers all of its economic interests. This assessment requires the Company to apply judgment in determining whether these interests, in the aggregate, are considered potentially significant to the VIE. Factors considered in assessing significance include: the design of the VIE, including its capitalization structure; subordination of interests; payment priority; relative share of interests held across various classes within the VIE’s capital structure; and the reasons why the interests are held by the Company. In instances where the Company and its related parties have variable interests in a VIE, the Company considers whether there is a single party in the related party group that meets both the power and losses or benefits criteria on its own as though no related party relationship existed. If one party within the related party group meets both these criteria, such reporting entity is the primary beneficiary of the VIE and no further analysis is needed. If no party within the related party group on its own meets both the power and losses or benefits criteria, but the related party group as a whole meets these two criteria, the determination of primary beneficiary within the related party group requires significant judgment. The analysis is based upon qualitative as well as quantitative factors, such as the relationship of the VIE to each of the members of the related-party group, as well as the significance of the VIE's activities to those members, with the objective of determining which party is most closely associated with the VIE. Ongoing assessments of whether an enterprise is the primary beneficiary of a VIE are required. Use of Estimates The preparation of the consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Earnings (Loss) Per Share GAAP requires use of the two-class method in computing earnings per share for all periods presented for each class of common stock and participating securities as if all earnings for the period had been distributed. Under the two-class method, during periods of net income, the net income is first reduced for dividends declared on all classes of securities to arrive at undistributed earnings. During periods of net losses, the net loss is reduced for dividends declared on participating securities only if the security has the right to participate in the earnings of the entity and an objectively determinable contractual obligation to share in net losses of the entity. The Company’s participating securities are not allocated a share of the net loss, as the participating securities do not have a contractual obligation to share in the net losses of the Company. The remaining earnings are allocated to common stockholders and participating securities, to the extent that each security shares in earnings, as if all of the earnings for the period had been distributed. Each total is then divided by the applicable number of weighted average outstanding common shares to arrive at basic earnings per share. For the diluted earnings, the denominator includes the weighted average outstanding common shares and all potential common shares assumed issued if they are dilutive. The numerator is adjusted for any changes in income or loss that would result from the assumed conversion of these potential common shares. Offering Costs Offering costs borne by the Company in connection with common stock offerings and private placements are reflected as a reduction of additional paid-in-capital. Offering costs borne by the Company in connection with its shelf registration will be deferred and recorded in "Other assets" until such time the Company completes a common stock offering where all or a portion will be reclassified and reflected as a reduction of additional paid-in-capital. The deferred offering costs will be expensed upon the expiration of the shelf if the Company does not complete an equity offering. Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company considers all highly liquid short-term investments with original maturities of 90 days or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents are exposed to concentrations of credit risk. The Company places its cash and cash equivalents with what it believes to be high credit quality institutions. At times such investments may be in excess of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insurance limit. Restricted Cash Restricted cash represents cash held by the trustee or servicer for mortgage escrows in connection with the Company's securitized loan and commercial loan investments held in its consolidated VIEs. These escrows consist of principal and interest escrows, capital improvement reserves, repair reserves, real estate tax and insurance reserves and tenant reserves. The corresponding liability is recorded in "Other liabilities" in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The restricted cash is not available for general corporate use. Valuation of Financial Instruments The Company discloses the fair value of its financial instruments according to a fair value hierarchy (Levels I, II, and III, as defined below). ASC 820, "Fair Value Measurement and Disclosures" establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands financial statement disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. ASC 820 further specifies a hierarchy of valuation techniques, which is based on whether the inputs into the valuation technique are observable or unobservable. The hierarchy is as follows: Level I — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level II — Quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations whose inputs are observable or whose significant value drivers are observable. Level III — Prices are determined using significant unobservable inputs. In situations where quoted prices or observable inputs are unavailable, for example, when there is little or no market activity for an investment at the end of the period, unobservable inputs may be used. The level in the fair value hierarchy within which a fair value measurement in its entirety falls is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. Transfers between levels are determined by the Company at the end of the reporting period. Refer to Note 3 - "Fair Value of Financial Instruments." Mortgage-Backed Securities and Other Securities The Company's mortgage-backed securities and other securities portfolio primarily consists of Agency CMBS, Non-Agency CMBS, Agency RMBS, Non-Agency RMBS, ABS and other real estate related securities, these investments are recorded in accordance with ASC 320, “Investments - Debt and Equity Securities” and ASC 325-40, “Beneficial Interests in Securitized Financial Assets.” The Company has chosen to elect the fair value option pursuant to ASC 825, “Financial Instruments” for its mortgage-backed securities and other securities portfolio. Electing the fair value option allows the Company to record changes in fair value in the Consolidated Statements of Operations as a component of “Unrealized gain (loss), net.” If the Company purchases securities with evidence of credit deterioration, it will analyze to determine if the guidance found in ASC 310-30, “Loans and Debt Securities Acquired with Deteriorated Credit Quality” is applicable. The Company evaluates securities for other-than-temporary impairment (“OTTI”) on at least a quarterly basis. The determination of whether a security is other-than-temporarily impaired involves judgments, estimates and assumptions based on subjective and objective factors. As a result, the timing and amount of an OTTI constitutes an accounting estimate that may change materially over time. When the fair value of an investment security is less than its amortized cost at the balance sheet date, the security is considered impaired, and the impairment is designated as either “temporary” or “other-than-temporary.” When a security is impaired, an OTTI is considered to have occurred if (i) the Company intends to sell the security (i.e., a decision has been made as of the reporting date) or (ii) it is more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis. If the Company intends to sell the security or if it is more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the real estate security before recovery of its amortized cost basis, the entire amount of the impairment loss, if any, is recognized in earnings as OTTI and the cost basis of the security is adjusted to its fair value. Additionally, for securities accounted for under ASC 325-40 an OTTI is deemed to have occurred when there is an adverse change in the expected cash flows to be received and the fair value of the security is less than its carrying amount. In determining whether an adverse change in cash flows occurred, the present value of the remaining cash flows, as estimated at the initial transaction date (or the last date previously revised), is compared to the present value of the expected cash flows at the current reporting date. The estimated cash flows reflect those a “market participant” would use and are discounted at a rate equal to the current yield used to accrete interest income. Any resulting OTTI adjustments are reflected in the “Other than temporary impairment” in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Increases in interest income may be recognized on a security in which the Company previously recorded an OTTI charge if the cash flow of such security subsequently improves. In addition, unrealized losses on the Company's Agency securities, with explicit guarantee of principal and interest by the governmental sponsored entity ("GSE"), are not credit losses but rather were due to changes in interest rates and prepayment expectations. These securities would not be considered other than temporarily impaired provided the Company did not intend to sell the security. Residential Whole Loans Investments in Residential Whole Loans are recorded in accordance with ASC 310-20, "Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs." The Company has chosen to elect the fair value option pursuant to ASC 825 for our entire Residential Whole-Loan portfolio. Residential Whole Loans are recorded at fair value with periodic changes in fair market value being recorded in earnings as a component of "Unrealized gain (loss), net." All other costs incurred in connection with acquiring Residential Whole Loans or committing to purchase these loans are charged to expense as incurred. On a quarterly basis, the Company evaluates the collectability of both interest and principal of each loan, if circumstances warrant, to determine whether such loan is impaired. A loan is impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the existing contractual terms. When a loan is impaired, the Company does not record an allowance for loan loss as it has elected the fair value option. However, income recognition is suspended for loans at the earlier of the date at which payments become 90-days past due or when, in the opinion of management, a full recovery of income and principal becomes doubtful. When the ultimate collectability of the principal of an impaired loan is in doubt, all payments are applied to principal under the cost recovery method. When the ultimate collectability of the principal of an impaired loan is not in doubt, contractual interest is recorded as interest income when received, under the cash basis method until an accrual is resumed when the loan becomes contractually current and performance is demonstrated. Residential Bridge Loans For the Bridge Loans acquired prior to October 25, 2017, the Company did not elect the fair value option pursuant to ASC 825. These loans are recorded at their principal amount outstanding, net of any premium or discount. Commencing with purchases on October 25, 2017, the Company decided to elect the fair value option pursuant to ASC 825 to be consistent with the accounting of its' other investments, which are all carried at fair value. These loans are recorded at fair value with periodic changes in fair market value being recorded in earnings as a component of "Unrealized gain (loss), net." All other costs incurred in connection with acquiring the Residential Bridge Loans or committing to purchase these loans are charged to expense as incurred. A loan is impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the existing contractual terms. The Company evaluates each of its Residential Bridge Loans on a quarterly basis. These loans are individually specific as they relate to the borrower, collateral type, interest rate, LTV and term as well as geographic location. The Company evaluates the collectability of both principal and interest of each loan. When a loan is impaired, the impairment is then measured based on fair value of the collateral less cost to sell, since these loans are collateral dependent. For loans the Company did not elect the fair value option, upon measurement of impairment, the Company records an allowance to reduce the carrying value of the loan with a corresponding charge to earnings. Significant judgments are required in determining impairment, including assumptions regarding the value of the loan, the value of the underlying collateral and other provisions such as guarantees. The Company will not record an allowance for loan loss for the Residential Bridge Loans that it has elected the fair value option. Income recognition is suspended for loans at the earlier of the date at which payments become 90-days past due or when, in the opinion of management, a full recovery of income and principal becomes doubtful. When the ultimate collectability of the principal of an impaired loan is in doubt, all payments are applied to principal under the cost recovery method. When the ultimate collectability of the principal of an impaired loan is not in doubt, contractual interest is recorded as interest income when received, under the cash basis method until an accrual is resumed when the loan becomes contractually current and performance is demonstrated. Securitized Commercial Loans Securitized commercial loans are comprised of commercial loans of consolidated variable interest entities which were sponsored by third parties. These loans are recorded in accordance with ASC 310-20, "Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs." The Company has chosen to elect the fair value option pursuant to ASC 825. Accordingly, these loans are recorded at fair value with periodic changes in fair value being recorded in earnings as a component of "Unrealized gain (loss), net." The securitized commercial loans are typically collateralized by commercial real estate. As a result, the Company regularly evaluates the extent and impact of any credit migration associated with the performance and/or value of the underlying collateral property as well as the financial and operating capability of the borrower on a loan by loan basis. On a quarterly basis, the Company evaluates the collectability of both interest and principal of each loan, if circumstances warrant, to determine whether such loan is impaired. A loan is impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the existing contractual terms. When a loan is impaired, the Company does not record an allowance for loan loss as the Company has elected the fair value option. However, income recognition is suspended for loans at the earlier of the date at which payments become 90-days past due or when, in the opinion of management, a full recovery of income and principal becomes doubtful. When the ultimate collectability of the principal of an impaired loan is in doubt, all payments are applied to principal under the cost recovery method. When the ultimate collectability of the principal of an impaired loan is not in doubt, contractual interest is recorded as interest income when received, under the cash basis method until an accrual is resumed. Interest income accrual is resumed when the loan becomes contractually current and performance is demonstrated. Commercial Loans Investments in Commercial Loans, which are comprised of first lien commercial mortgage loans and commercial mezzanine loans, are recorded in accordance with ASC 310-20, "Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs." The Company has chosen to make the fair value election pursuant to ASC 825 for its Commercial Loan portfolio. Accordingly, these loans are recorded at fair value with periodic changes in fair value being recorded in earnings as a component of "Unrealized gain (loss), net." All other costs incurred in connection with acquiring the Commercial Loans or committing to purchase these loans are charged to expense as incurred. The Company’s loans are typically collateralized by commercial real estate. As a result, the Company regularly evaluates the extent and impact of any credit migration associated with the performance and or value of the underlying collateral property as well as the financial and operating capability of the borrower on a loan by loan basis. On a quarterly basis, the Company evaluates the collectability of both interest and principal of each loan, if circumstances warrant, to determine whether such loan is impaired. A loan is impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the existing contractual terms. When a loan is impaired, the Company does not record an allowance for loan loss as the Company has elected the fair value option. However, income recognition is suspended for loans at the earlier of the date at which payments become 90-days past due or when, in the opinion of management, a full recovery of income and principal becomes doubtful. When the ultimate collectability of the principal of an impaired loan is in doubt, all payments are applied to principal under the cost recovery method. When the ultimate collectability of the principal of an impaired loan is not in doubt, contractual interest is recorded as interest income when received, under the cash basis method until an accrual is resumed. Interest income accrual is resumed when the loan becomes contractually current and performance is demonstrated. Interest Income Recognition Agency MBS, Non-Agency MBS and other securities, excluding Interest-Only Strips, rated AA and higher at the time of purchase Interest income on mortgage-backed and other securities is accrued based on the respective outstanding principal balances and corresponding contractual terms. The Company records interest income in accordance with ASC subtopic 835-30 "Imputation of Interest," using the effective interest method. As such premiums and discounts associated with Agency MBS, Non-Agency MBS and other securities, excluding Interest-Only Strips, are amortized into interest income over the estimated life of such securities. Adjustments to premium and discount amortization are made for actual prepayment activity. The Company estimates prepayments at least quarterly for its securities and, as a result, if the projected prepayment speed increases, the Company will accelerate the rate of amortization on premiums or discounts and make a retrospective adjustment to historical amortization. Alternatively, if projected prepayment speeds decrease, the Company will reduce the rate of amortization on the premiums or discounts and make a retrospective adjustment to historical amortization. Non-Agency MBS and other securities that are rated below AA at the time of purchase and Interest-Only Strips that are not classified as derivatives Interest income on Non-Agency MBS and other securities that are rated below AA at the time of purchase and Interest-Only Strips that are not classified as derivatives are also recognized in accordance with ASC 835, using the effective yield method. The effective yield on these securities is based on the projected cash flows from each security, which is estimated based on the Company’s observation of the then current information and events, where applicable, and will 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 securities are affected by the contractual lives of the underlying collateral, periodic payments of scheduled principal, and prepayments of principal. Therefore, actual maturities of the securities will generally be shorter than stated contractual maturities. Based on the projected cash flow of such securities purchased at a discount to par value, the Company may designate a portion of such purchase discount as credit protection against future credit losses and, therefore, not accrete such amount 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. Loan Portfolio Interest income on the Company's residential loan portfolio and commercial loan portfolio is recorded using the effective interest method based on the contractual payment terms of the loan. Any premium amortization or discount accretion will be reflected as a component of "Interest income" in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Purchases and Sales of Investments The Company accounts for a contract for the purchase or sale of securities, or other securities that do not yet exist on a trade date basis, which it intends to take possession and thus recognizes the acquisition or disposition of the securities at the inception of the contract. Sales of investments are driven by the Company’s portfolio management process. The Company seeks to mitigate risks including those associated with prepayments and will opportunistically rotate the portfolio into securities and/or other investments the Company’s Manager believes have more favorable attributes. Strategies may also be employed to manage net capital gains, which need to be distributed for tax purposes. Realized gains or losses on sales of investments, including Agency Interest-Only Strips not characterized as derivatives, are a component of "Realized gain (loss) on sale of investments, net" in the Consolidated Statements of Operations, and are recorded at the time of disposition. Realized gains or losses on Interest-Only Strips which are characterized as derivatives are a component of "Gain (loss) on derivative instruments, net" in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Due From Counterparties / Due To Counterparties "Due from counterparties" represents cash posted by the Company with its counterparties as collateral for the Company’s interest rate and/or futures contracts, repurchase agreements, and TBAs. "Due to counterparties" represents cash posted with the Company by its counterparties as collateral under the Company’s interest rate and/or currency derivative financial instruments, repurchase agreements, and TBAs. Included in "Due from counterparties" and/or "Due to counterparties" are daily variation margin settlement amounts with counterparties which are based on the price movement of the Company’s futures contracts. Daily variation margin on only the Company's centrally cleared derivatives was treated as a settlement and classified as either "Derivative assets, at fair value" or "Derivative liability, at fair value" in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. In addition, as provided below, "Due to counterparties" may include non-cash collateral in which the Company has the obligation to return and which the Company has either sold or pledged. To the extent the Company receives collateral other than cash from its counterparties, such assets are not included in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company either rehypothecates such assets or pledges the assets as collateral pursuant to a repurchase agreement, the cash received and the corresponding liability are reflected in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Derivatives and Hedging Activities Subject to maintaining its qualification as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the Company as part of its hedging strategy, we may enter into interest rate swaps, including forward starting swaps, interest rate swaptions, U.S. Treasury options, Eurodollar, Volatility Index and U.S, Treasury futures, TBAs, total return swaps, credit default swaps and forwards to hedge the interest rate and currency risk associated with its portfolio and related borrowings. Derivatives, subject to REIT requirements, are used for hedging purposes rather than speculation. The Company has also entered into a total return swap, which transfers the total return of the referenced security to the Company. The Company determines the fair value of its derivative positions and obtains quotations from third parties, including the Chicago Mercantile Exchange or CME, to facilitate the process of determining such fair values. The Company does not necessarily seek to hedge all such risks. In addition, if the Company’s hedging activities do not achieve the desired results, reported earnings may be adversely affected. GAAP requires an entity to recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities on the balance sheet and to measure those instruments at fair value. The accounting for changes in the fair value of derivatives depends on the intended use of the derivative. The fair value adjustment will affect either other comprehensive income in stockholders’ equity until the hedged item is recognized in earnings or net income depending on whether the derivative instrument is designated and qualifies as a for hedge for accounting purposes and if so, the nature of the hedging activity. The Company elected not to apply hedge accounting for its derivative instruments. Accordingly, the Company records the change in fair value of its derivative instruments, which includes net interest rate swap payments/receipts (including accrued amounts) and net currency payments/receipts (including accrued amounts) related to interest rate swaps and currency swaps, respectively, in "Gain (loss) on derivative instruments, net" in its Consolidated Statements of Operations. In January 2017, the CME amended its rulebooks to legally characterize variation margin payments and receipts for over-the-counter derivatives they clear as settlements of the derivatives' exposure rather than collateral against exposure. As a result of the change in legal characterization, effective January 1, 2017, variation margin is no longer classified as collateral in the Consolidated Balance Sheets in either "Due from counterparties" or "Due to counterparties," but rather a component of the respective "Derivative asset, at fair value" or "Derivative liability, at fair value" in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The variation margin is now considered partial settlements of the derivative contract and will result in realized gains or losses which prior to January 1, 2017 were classified as unrealized gains or losses on derivatives. Prior to the CME rulebook change variation margin was included in financing activities in the Company's Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows in either "Due from counterparties, net" or "Due to counterparties, net." Commencing in January 2017, cash postings for variation margin are included in operating activities in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. In the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, premiums received or paid on termination of its interest rate swaps are included in cash flows from operating activities. Notwithstanding the foregoing, proceeds and payments on settlement of swaptions, futures contracts and TBAs are included in cash flows from investing activities. Proceeds and payments on settlement of forward contracts are reflected in cash flows from financing activities in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. For Agency and Non-Agency Interest-Only Strips accounted for as derivatives, the purchase, sale and recovery of basis activity is included with MBS and other securities under cash flows from investing activities in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. The Company evaluates the terms and conditions of its holdings of Agency and Non-Agency Interest-Only Strips, interest rate swaptions, currency forwards, futures contracts and TBAs to determine if these instruments have the characteristics of an investment or should be considered a derivative under GAAP. In determining the classification of its holdings of Interest-Only Strips, the Company evaluates the securities to determine if the nature of the cash flows have been altered from that of the underlying mortgage collateral. Interest-Only Strips, for which the underlying mortgage collateral has been included into a structured security that alters the cash flows from the underlying mortgage collateral, are accounted for as derivatives.

If quoted market prices are not available, the Company will use independent pricing services and if the independent pricing service cannot price a particular asset or liability, the Company will obtain third party broker quotes. The Manager's pricing group, which functions independently from its portfolio management personnel, reviews the third party broker quotes by comparing the broker quotes for reasonableness to alternate sources when available. If independent pricing services or third party broker quotes are not available, the Company determines the fair value of the securities using valuation techniques that use, when possible, current market-based or independently sourced market parameters, such as interest rates and when applicable, estimates of prepayments and credit losses. In instances when the Company is required to consolidate a VIE that is determined to be a qualifying collateralized financing entity ("CFE"), under GAAP and the Company has elected the fair value option for the securitized debt, the Company will measure both the financial assets and financial liabilities of the VIE using the fair value of either the VIE’s financial assets or financial liabilities, whichever is more observable. Mortgage-backed securities and other securities In determining the proper fair value hierarchy or level the Company considers the amount of available observable market data for each security. Agency RMBS and Agency CMBS, given the amount of available observable market data, generally are classified in Level II. For newly issued Agency CMBS securities that have not settled at period end and do not have a CUSIP yet, the Company utilizes a broker quote due to lack of observable market data, accordingly these securities are classified in Level III. For Agency IOs, Non-Agency RMBS, CMBS and other securities, to determine whether a security should be a Level II, the securities are grouped by security type and the Manager reviews the internal trade history, for the quarter, for each security type. If there is sufficient trade data above a predetermined threshold of a security type, the Manager determines it has sufficient observable market data and the security will be categorized as a Level II; otherwise, the security is classified as a Level III. Values for the Company's securities are based upon prices obtained from independent third party pricing services. The valuation methodology of the third party pricing services incorporates market information and commonly used market pricing methods, which include actual trades and quoted prices for similar or identical instruments, and are designed to produce a pricing process that is responsive to market conditions. Depending on the type of asset and the underlying collateral, the primary inputs to the model include yields for TBAs, Agency RMBS, the U.S. Treasury market and floating rate indices such as LIBOR, the Constant Maturity Treasury rate and the prime rate as a benchmark yield. In addition, the model may incorporate the current weighted average maturity and additional pool level information such as prepayment speeds, default frequencies and default severities, if applicable. When the third party pricing service cannot adequately price a particular security, the Company utilizes a broker's quote which is reviewed for reasonableness by the Manager's pricing group. Residential Whole Loans and Residential Bridge Loans Values for the Company's Non-QM Residential Whole Loans and Bridge Loans are based upon prices obtained from an independent third party pricing service that specializes in loan valuation, utilizing a discounted cash flow valuation model that is calibrated to recent loan trade execution. Their valuation methodology incorporates commonly used market pricing methods, which include the inputs considered most significant to the determination of fair value of the Company's Residential Whole Loans and Residential Bridge Loans. The key loan inputs include loan balance, interest rate, loan to value, delinquencies and fair value of the collateral for collateral dependent loans. The assumption made by the independent third party pricing service includes the market discount rate, yield, default assumption and loss severity. Other inputs and assumptions relevant to the pricing of Residential Whole Loans include FICO scores and prepayment speeds. Values for the Conforming Residential Whole Loan Portfolio, are based on a third party pricing service valuation model that assigns a loan value using TBA prices, adjusted for delivery to Fannie Mae using Fannie Mae's loan-level price adjustment matrix. In addition to pricing the underlying mortgages, the third party pricing service uses a service release premium valuation representing the sale of the right to service the mortgages. Together, the TBA price and service release premium price form the "All-In" price for these mortgages. The Company reviews the analysis provided by pricing service as well as the key assumptions made available to the company. Due to the inherent uncertainty of such valuation, the fair values established for residential loans held by the Company may differ from the fair values that would have been established if a readily available market existed for these loans. Accordingly, the Company's loans are classified as Level III. Commercial Loans Values for the Company's Commercial Loans are based upon prices obtained from an independent third party pricing service that specializes in loan valuation, utilizing a valuation model that is calibrated to recent loan trade execution. Their valuation methodology incorporates commonly used market pricing methods, which include the inputs considered most significant to the determination of fair value of the Company's Commercial Loans. The assumptions made by the independent third party pricing vendor include a market discount rate, default assumption and loss severity. The Company reviews the analysis provided by pricing service as well as the key assumptions. Due to the inherent uncertainty of such valuation, the fair values established for commercial loans held by the Company may differ from the fair values that would have been established if a readily available market existed for these loans. Accordingly, the Company's commercial loans are classified as a Level III. Securitized commercial loans Values for the Company’s securitized commercial loans are based on the CFE valuation methodology. Since there is an extremely limited market for the securitized commercial loans, the Company determined the securitized debt is more actively traded and therefore was more observable. Due to the inherent uncertainty of the securitized commercial loan's valuation, the Company classifies its securitized commercial loans as Level III. Securitized debt Values for the Company's securitized debt are based upon prices obtained from independent third party pricing services. The valuation methodology of the third party pricing services incorporates market information and commonly used market pricing methods, which include actual trades and quoted prices for similar or identical instruments. In determining the proper fair value hierarchy or level, the Company considers the amount of available observable market data for each security. Since the securitized debt represents traded debt securities, the Manager's pricing team reviews the trade activity during the quarter for each security to determine the appropriate level within the fair value hierarchy. If there is sufficient trade data above a predetermined volume threshold, the Manager determines it has sufficient observable market data and the debt security will be categorized as a Level II. If there is not sufficient observable market data the debt security will be categorized as a Level III. Derivatives Values for the Company's derivatives are based upon prices from third party pricing services, whose pricing is subject to review by the Manager's pricing committee. In valuing its over-the-counter interest rate derivatives, such as swaps and swaptions, its currency derivatives, such as swaps and forwards and credit derivatives such as total return swaps, the Company considers the creditworthiness of both the Company and its counterparties, along with collateral provisions contained in each derivative agreement, from the perspective of both the Company and its counterparties. No credit valuation adjustment was made in determining the fair value of interest rate and/or futures contracts for the years ended December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 . Third Party Pricing Data Review The Company performs quarterly reviews of the independent third party pricing data. These reviews may include a review of the valuation methodology used by third party valuation specialists and review of the daily change in the prices provided by the independent pricing vendor which exceed established tolerances or comparisons to executed transaction prices, utilizing the Manager's pricing group. The Manager's pricing group, which functions independently from its portfolio management personnel, reviews the price differences or changes in price by comparing the vendor price to alternate sources including other independent pricing services or broker quotations. If the price change or difference cannot be corroborated, the Manager's pricing group consults with the portfolio management team for market color in reviewing such pricing data as warranted. To the extent that the Manager has information, typically in the form of broker quotations that would indicate that a price received from the independent pricing service is outside of a tolerance range, the Manager generally challenges the independent pricing service price. The following tables present a summary of the available quantitative information about the significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of financial instruments for which the Company has utilized Level III inputs to determine fair value as of December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 (dollars in thousands).

As of December 31, 2019 , the TBA prices used for valuing the conforming loans range from $101.39 to $107.63 . The following tables present additional information about the Company's financial instruments which are measured at fair value on a recurring basis for which the Company has utilized Level III inputs to determine fair value: Year ended December 31, 2019 $ in thousands Agency MBS Non-Agency MBS Other Securities Residential Residential Bridge Loans Commercial Loans Securitized Commercial Loans Securitized Debt Beginning balance $ 19,837 $ 50,555 $ 8,951 $ 1,041,885 $ 211,999 $ 216,123 $ 1,013,511 $ 2,286 Transfers into Level III from Level II — — 8,386 — — — — — Transfers from Level III into Level II — — — — — — — — Purchases — — — 544,426 — 274,422 1,113,231 — Sales and settlements (401 ) — — — — — — 3,769 Transfers to REO — — — — (2,677 ) — — — Principal repayments — (965 ) (555 ) (228,163 ) (175,422 ) (121,245 ) (1,214,688 ) — Total net gains/losses included in net income Realized gains/(losses), net on assets — — — — (351 ) — — — Other than temporary impairment (222 ) (1,332 ) — — — — — — Unrealized gains/(losses), net on assets (1) 762 (229 ) 693 20,887 397 (122 ) (1,070 ) — Unrealized (gains)/losses, net on liabilities (2) — — — — — — — (2,373 ) Premium and discount amortization, net (4,061 ) (2,215 ) (279 ) (3,175 ) (677 ) 1,035 (1,944 ) (2,625 ) Ending balance $ 15,915 $ 45,814 $ 17,196 $ 1,375,860 $ 33,269 $ 370,213 $ 909,040 $ 1,057 Unrealized gains/(losses), net on assets held at the end of the period (1) $ 780 $ (229 ) $ 693 $ 21,768 $ (488 ) $ 128 $ (1,042 ) $ — Unrealized gains/(losses), net on liabilities held at the end of the period (2) $ — $ — $ — $ — $ — $ — $ — $ 375 Year ended December 31, 2018 $ in thousands Agency MBS Non-Agency MBS Other Securities Residential Residential Bridge Loans Commercial Loans Securitized Commercial Loans Securitized Debt Beginning balance $ 17,217 $ 8,735 $ 9,239 $ 237,423 $ 64,526 $ — $ 24,876 $ 10,945 Transfers into Level III from Level II 22,795 39,084 9,708 — — — — — Transfers from Level III into Level II (16,805 ) — (8,697 ) — — — — (10,899 ) Purchases 2,093 8,602 — 860,576 207,705 215,322 1,353,020 — Sales and settlements — (4,180 ) — — — — — 12 Principal repayments (53 ) (307 ) (604 ) (55,186 ) (57,528 ) — (361,782 ) (44 ) Total net gains / (losses) included in net income Realized gains/(losses), net on assets — 258 — — — — — — Other than temporary impairment (735 ) (918 ) (161 ) — — — — — Unrealized gains/(losses), net on assets (1) (630 ) 1,183 (532 ) (415 ) (1,806 ) 631 (16 ) — Unrealized (gains)/losses, net on liabilities (2) — — — — — — — 1,996 Premium and discount amortization, net (4,045 ) (1,902 ) (2 ) (513 ) (898 ) 170 (2,587 ) 276 Ending balance $ 19,837 $ 50,555 $ 8,951 $ 1,041,885 $ 211,999 $ 216,123 $ 1,013,511 $ 2,286 Unrealized gains/(losses), net on assets held at the end of the period (1) $ (272 ) $ 1,184 $ (464 ) $ 351 $ (1,370 ) $ 631 $ (16 ) $ — Unrealized gains/(losses), net on liabilities held at the end of the period (2) $ — $ — $ — $ — $ — $ — $ — $ (1,998 ) (1) Gains and losses are included in "Unrealized gain (loss), net" in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. (2) Gains and losses on securitized debt are included in "Unrealized gain (loss), net" in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Transfers between hierarchy levels for the years ended December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 were based on the availability of sufficient observable inputs. Movements from Level II to Level III was based on the back-testing of historical sales transactions performed by the Manager, which did not provide sufficient observable data to meet Level II versus Level III criteria, resulting in the movement from Level II to Level III. Movements from Level III to Level II was based on information received from a third party pricing service which, along with the back-testing of historical sales transactions performed by the Manager, which provided the sufficient observable data for the movement from Level III to Level II. The Company did not have transfers between either Level I and Level II or Level I and Level III for the years ended December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 . Other Fair Value Disclosures Certain Residential Bridge Loans, repurchase agreement borrowings, convertible senior unsecured notes and securitized debt are not carried at fair value in the consolidated financial statements. The following table presents the carrying value and estimated fair value of the Company’s financial instruments that are not carried at fair value, as of December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , in the consolidated financial statements (dollars in thousands): December 31, 2019 December 31, 2018 Carrying Value Estimated Fair Value Carrying Value Estimated Fair Value Assets Residential Bridge Loans $ 3,150 $ 3,148 $ 9,720 $ 9,603 Total $ 3,150 $ 3,148 $ 9,720 $ 9,603 Liabilities Borrowings under repurchase agreements $ 2,824,801 $ 2,829,093 $ 2,818,837 $ 2,823,615 Convertible senior unsecured notes 197,299 209,172 110,060 108,531 Securitized debt (1) 801,109 810,914 — — Total $ 3,823,209 $ 3,849,179 $ 2,928,897 $ 2,932,146 (1) Carrying value excludes $5.3 million of deferred financing costs "Due from counterparties" and "Due to counterparties" in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets are reflected at cost which approximates fair value. Residential Bridge Loans Values for the Company's Bridge Loans are based upon prices obtained from an independent third party pricing service that specializes in loan valuation, utilizing a discounted cash flow valuation model that is calibrated to recent loan trade execution. Their valuation methodology incorporates commonly used market pricing methods, which include the inputs considered most significant to the determination of fair value of the Residential Bridge Loans. The key loan inputs include loan balance, interest rate, loan to value, FICO score, debt to income ratio and delinquencies. The assumption made by the independent third party pricing service includes the market discount rate, prepayment, default assumption and loss severity. The Company reviews the analysis provided by pricing service as well as the key assumptions made available to the Company. Due to the inherent uncertainty of such valuation, the fair values established for residential bridge loans held by the Company may differ from the fair values that would have been established if a readily available market existed for these loans. Accordingly, the Company's loans are classified as Level III. Borrowings under repurchase agreements The fair values of the borrowings under repurchase agreements are based on a net present value technique. This method discounts future estimated cash flows using rates the Company determined best estimates current market interest rates that would be offered for loans with similar characteristics and credit quality. The use of different market assumptions or estimation methodologies could have a material effect on the fair value amounts. This fair value measurement is based on observable inputs, and as such, are classified as Level II. Convertible senior unsecured notes The fair value of the convertible senior unsecured notes is based on quoted market prices. Accordingly, the Company's convertible senior unsecured notes are classified as Level I. Securitized debt Values for the Company's securitized debt, related to the securitization of a portion of its Residential Whole Loans, are based upon prices obtained from independent third party pricing services. The valuation methodology of the third party pricing services incorporates market information and commonly used market pricing methods, which include actual trades and quoted prices for similar or identical instruments. In determining the proper fair value hierarchy or level, the Company considers the amount of available observable market data for each security. Since the securitized debt represents traded debt securities, the Manager's pricing team reviews the trade activity during the quarter for each security to determine the appropriate level within the fair value hierarchy. If there is sufficient trade data above a predetermined threshold, the Manager determines it has sufficient observable market data and the debt security will be categorized as a Level II. If there is not sufficient observable market data the debt security will be categorized as a Level III. At December 31, 2019 , there was not sufficient observable market data for the debt to be classified as a Level II, accordingly it was classified as a Level III. |

Generally, the Company records Other Than Temporary Impairment ("OTTI") when the credit quality of the underlying collateral deteriorates, and or the scheduled payments are faster than previously projected. The credit deterioration could be as a result of, but not limited to, increased projected realized losses, foreclosures, delinquencies and the likelihood of the borrower being able to make payments in the future. Generally, a prepayment occurs when a loan has a higher interest rate relative to current interest rates and lenders are willing to extend credit at the lower current interest rate or the underlying collateral for the loan is sold or transferred.

Generally, the Company records Other Than Temporary Impairment ("OTTI") when the credit quality of the underlying collateral deteriorates, and or the scheduled payments are faster than previously projected. The credit deterioration could be as a result of, but not limited to, increased projected realized losses, foreclosures, delinquencies and the likelihood of the borrower being able to make payments in the future. Generally, a prepayment occurs when a loan has a higher interest rate relative to current interest rates and lenders are willing to extend credit at the lower current interest rate or the underlying collateral for the loan is sold or transferred.

Financings | Financings Repurchase Agreements The Company primarily finances its investment acquisitions with repurchase agreements. The repurchase agreements bear interest at a contractually agreed-upon rate and typically have terms ranging from one month to three months. The Company’s repurchase agreement borrowings are accounted for as secured borrowings when the Company maintains effective control of the financed assets. Under the repurchase agreements, the respective counterparties retain the right to determine the fair value of the underlying collateral. A reduction in the value of pledged assets requires the Company to post additional securities as collateral, pay down borrowings or establish cash margin accounts with the counterparties in order to re-establish the agreed-upon collateral requirements, and is referred to as a margin call. The inability of the Company to post adequate collateral for a margin call by a counterparty, in a time frame as short as the close of the same business day, could result in a condition of default under the Company’s repurchase agreements, thereby enabling the counterparty to liquidate the collateral pledged by the Company, which may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows. Under the terms of the repurchase agreements the Company may rehypothecate pledged U.S. Treasury securities it receives from its repurchase agreement as incremental collateral in order to increase the Company’s cash position. At December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , the Company did not have any rehypothecated U.S. Treasury securities. Certain of the repurchase agreements provide the counterparty with the right to terminate the agreement if the Company does not maintain certain equity and leverage metrics, the most restrictive of which include a limit on leverage based on the composition of the Company’s portfolio. For all the repurchase agreements with outstanding borrowings, the Company was in compliance with the terms of such financial tests as of December 31, 2019 . As of December 31, 2019 , the Company had 34 master repurchase agreements with its counterparties and borrowings under 21 of the 34 counterparties.

These facilities automatically roll until such time as they are terminated or until certain conditions of default. The weighted average remaining maturity days was calculated using expected weighted life of the underlying collateral. At December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , repurchase agreements collateralized by investments had the following remaining maturities: (dollars in thousands) December 31, 2019 December 31, 2018 1 to 29 days $ 1,480,286 $ 1,867,957 30 to 59 days 552,786 144,778 60 to 89 days 255,814 555,695 Greater than or equal to 90 days 535,991 250,407 Total $ 2,824,877 $ 2,818,837 At December 31, 2019 , the following table reflects amounts of collateral at risk under its repurchase agreements greater than 10% of the Company's equity with any counterparty (dollars in thousands): December 31, 2019 Counterparty Amount of Collateral at Risk, at fair value Weighted Average Remaining Maturity (days) Percentage of Stockholders' Equity Credit Suisse AG, Cayman Islands Branch $ 132,306 1024 23.4 % Barclays Capital Inc. 73,203 38 13.0 % Collateral for Borrowings under Repurchase Agreements The following table summarizes the Company's collateral positions, with respect to its borrowings under repurchase agreements at December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 (dollars in thousands): December 31, 2019 December 31, 2018 Assets Pledged Accrued Interest Assets Pledged and Accrued Interest Assets Pledged Accrued Interest Assets Pledged and Accrued Interest Assets pledged for borrowings under repurchase agreements: Agency CMBS, at fair value $ 1,400,230 $ 3,916 $ 1,404,146 $ 1,486,142 $ 4,262 $ 1,490,404 Agency RMBS, at fair value 356,687 1,336 358,023 19,837 453 20,290 Non-Agency RMBS, at fair value 45,816 414 46,230 50,555 479 51,034 Non-Agency CMBS, at fair value 246,797 951 247,748 186,552 915 187,467 Residential Whole Loans, at fair value (1) 529,495 3,704 533,199 1,041,885 8,145 1,050,030 Residential Bridge Loans (1) 34,897 471 35,368 221,486 3,528 225,014 Commercial Loans, at fair value (1) 350,213 1,855 352,068 196,123 1,067 197,190 Securitized commercial loans, at fair value (1) 171,640 674 172,314 13,688 88 13,776 Other securities, at fair value 80,031 128 80,159 59,780 147 59,927 Cash (2) 43,499 — 43,499 1,226 — 1,226 Total $ 3,259,305 $ 13,449 $ 3,272,754 $ 3,277,274 $ 19,084 $ 3,296,358 (1) Loans owned through trust certificates are pledged as collateral. The trust certificates are eliminated upon consolidation. (2) Cash posted as collateral is included in "Due from counterparties" in the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets. A reduction in the value of pledged assets typically results in the repurchase agreement counterparties initiating a margin call. At December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , investments held by counterparties as security for repurchase agreements totaled approximately $3.2 billion and approximately $3.3 billion , respectively. Cash collateral held by repurchase agreement counterparties at December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 was approximately $43.5 million and $1.2 million , respectively. Cash posted by repurchase agreement counterparties at December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , was approximately $709 thousand and $17.8 million , respectively.

Interest rate swaps and interest rate swaptions The Company enters into interest rate swaps and interest rate swaptions to mitigate its exposure to higher short-term interest rates in connection with its repurchase agreements. Interest rate swaps generally involve the receipt of variable-rate amounts from a counterparty in exchange for the Company making fixed-rate payments over the life of the interest rate swap without exchange of the underlying notional amount. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in order to manage its hedge position with regard to its liabilities, the Company on occasion will enter into interest rate swaps which involve the receipt of fixed-rate amounts from a counterparty in exchange for the Company making variable-rate payments over the life of the interest rate swap without exchange of the underlying notional amount. The Company also enters into forward starting swaps and interest rate swaptions to help mitigate the effects of changes in interest rates on a portion of its borrowings under repurchase agreements. Interest rate swaptions provide the Company the option to enter into an interest rate swap agreement for a predetermined notional amount, stated term and pay and receive interest rates in the future. The Company generally enters into MAC (Market Agreed Coupon) interest rate swaps in which it may receive or make a payment at the time of entering such interest rate swap to compensate for the out of the market nature of such interest rate swap. At December 31, 2019 , the Company had made upfront cash collateral payments of $52.6 million , which is classified in "Due from counterparties" in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Similar to all other interest rate swaps, these interest rate swaps are also subject to margin requirements as previously described. The Company has not elected to account for its interest rate swaps as "hedges" under GAAP, accordingly the change in fair value of the interest rate swaps not designated in hedging relationships are recorded together with periodic net interest settlement amounts in "Gain (loss) on derivatives instruments, net" in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Interest Rate Swaps The following tables provide additional information on our fixed pay interest rate swaps and the variable pay interest rate swap as of December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 (dollars in thousands): December 31, 2019 Fixed Pay Interest Rate Swap Remaining Term Notional Amount Average Fixed Pay Rate Average Floating Receive Rate Average Maturity (Years) 1 year or less $ 200,000 1.8 % 1.9 % 0.4 Greater than 3 years and less than 5 years 622,400 2.6 % 1.9 % 4.1 Greater than 5 years 1,728,600 2.1 % 2.0 % 8.9 Total $ 2,551,000 2.2 % 2.0 % 7.1 December 31, 2019 Variable Pay Interest Rate Swap Remaining Term Notional Amount Average Variable Pay Rate Average Fixed Receive Rate Average Maturity (Years) Greater than 1 years and less than 3 years $ 810,000 2.0 % 2.0 % 1.6 Greater than 3 years and less than 5 years 550,000 1.9 % 1.6 % 5 Greater than 5 years 45,000 1.9 % 2.3 % 19.5 Total $ 1,405,000 2.0 % 1.9 % 3.5 December 31, 2018 Fixed Pay Interest Rate Swap Remaining Term Notional Amount Average Fixed Pay Rate Average Floating Receive Rate Average Maturity (Years) 1 year or less $ 400,000 1.5 % 2.8 % 0.5 Greater than 1 year and less than 3 years 200,000 1.8 % 2.6 % 1.4 Greater than 3 years and less than 5 years 1,104,700 2.3 % 2.5 % 3.8 Greater than 5 years 1,423,100 2.5 % 2.5 % 9.9 Total $ 3,127,800 2.3 % 2.6 % 6.0 December 31, 2018 Variable Pay Interest Rate Swap Remaining Term Notional Amount Average Variable Pay Rate Average Fixed Receive Rate Average Maturity (Years) Greater than 5 years $ 728,400 2.5 % 2.4 % 8.3 Total $ 728,400 2.5 % 2.4 % 8.3 As of December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , the Company had no variable pay or fixed pay forward starting swaps.

To-Be-Announced Securities The Company purchased or sold TBAs during the years ended December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 . There were no open TBA positions as of December 31, 2018 . The following is a summary of the Company's TBA positions as of December 31, 2019 , reported in "Derivative assets, at fair value" and "Derivative liability, at fair value" in the Consolidated Balance Sheets (dollars in thousands): December 31, 2019 Notional Amount Fair Value Purchase contracts, asset $ 1,000,000 $ 1,146 Purchase contracts, liability (1,000,000 ) (2,074 ) TBA securities, net $ — $ (928 ) The following tables present additional information about the Company's contracts to purchase and sell TBAs for the year ended December 31, 2019 (dollars in thousands): Notional Amount Settlement, Termination, Notional Amount December 31, 2018 Additions Expiration or Exercise December 31, 2019 Purchase of TBAs $ — $ 3,200,000 $ (2,200,000 ) $ 1,000,000 Sale of TBAs $ — $ 3,200,000 $ (2,200,000 ) $ 1,000,000 Interest-Only Strips The Company also invests in Interest-Only Strips. In determining the classification of its holdings of Interest-Only Strips, the Company evaluates the securities to determine if the nature of the cash flows has been altered from that of the underlying mortgage collateral. Generally, Interest-Only Strips for which the security represents a strip off of a mortgage pass through security will be considered a hybrid instrument classified as an MBS investment in the Consolidated Balance Sheets utilizing the fair value option. Alternatively, those Interest-Only Strips, for which the underlying mortgage collateral has been included into a structured security that alters the cash flows from the underlying mortgage collateral, are accounted for as derivatives at fair value with changes recognized in "Gain (loss) on derivative instruments, net" in the Consolidated Statements of Operations, along with any interest received. The carrying value of these Interest-Only Strips is included in "Agency mortgage-backed securities, at fair value" in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Credit Default Swaps |

Related Party Transactions [Abstract] | |
Related Party Transactions | Related Party Transactions Management Agreement In connection with the Company's initial public offering ("IPO") in May 2012, the Company entered into a management agreement (the "Management Agreement") with the Manager, which describes the services to be provided by the Manager and compensation for such services. The Manager is responsible for managing the Company's operations, including: (i) performing all of its day-to-day functions; (ii) determining investment criteria in conjunction with the Board of Directors; (iii) sourcing, analyzing and executing investments, asset sales and financings; (iv) performing asset management duties; and (v) performing financial and accounting management, subject to the direction and oversight of the Company's Board of Directors. Pursuant to the terms of the Management Agreement, the Manager is paid a management fee equal to 1.50% per annum of the Company's stockholders' equity (as defined in the Management Agreement), calculated and payable (in cash) quarterly in arrears. For purposes of calculating the management fee, "stockholders' equity" means the sum of the net proceeds from any 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 retained earnings, calculated in accordance with GAAP, at the end of the most recently completed fiscal quarter (without taking into account any non-cash equity compensation expense incurred in current or prior periods), less any amount paid for repurchases of the Company's shares of common stock, excluding any unrealized gains or losses on our investments and derivatives and other non-cash items, (excluding OTTI) that have impacted stockholders' equity as reported in the Company's consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP, regardless of whether such items are included in other comprehensive income or loss, or in net income, and excluding one-time events pursuant to changes in GAAP and certain other non-cash charges after discussions between the Manager and the Company's independent directors and after approval by a majority of the Company's independent directors. However, if the Company's stockholders' equity for any given quarter is negative based on the calculation described above, the Manager will not be entitled to receive any management fee for that quarter. On August 3, 2016, the Company and the Manager entered into an amendment to the Management Agreement that amended the definition of "Equity" in the Management Agreement. Under the new definition, for all periods beginning on January 1, 2016, OTTI will reduce the Company's "Equity" for any completed fiscal quarter that OTTI was recognized, which in turn will reduce the Company's management fee from what would have been payable before the amendment. In addition, the Company may be required to reimburse the Manager for certain expenses as described below, and shall reimburse the Manager for the compensation paid to the Company's chief financial officer, controller and their staff. Expense reimbursements to the Manager are made in cash on a regular basis. The Company's reimbursement obligation is not subject to any dollar limitation. Because the Manager's personnel perform certain legal, accounting, due diligence tasks and other services that outside professionals or outside consultants otherwise would perform, the Manager may be paid or reimbursed for the documented cost of performing such tasks, provided that such costs and reimbursements are in amounts which are no greater than those which would be payable to outside professionals or consultants engaged to perform such services pursuant to agreements negotiated on an arm's-length basis. The Management Agreement may be amended, supplemented or modified by agreement between the Company and the Manager. The Management Agreement expires on May 16, 2021 It is automatically renewed for one year terms on each May 15th unless previously terminated as described below. The Company's independent directors review the Manager's performance and any fees payable to the Manager annually and, the Management Agreement may be terminated annually upon the affirmative vote of at least two-thirds (2/3) of the Company's independent directors, based upon: (i) the Manager's unsatisfactory performance that is materially detrimental to the Company; or (ii) the Company's determination that any fees payable to the Manager are not fair, subject to the Manager's right to prevent such termination due to unfair fees by accepting a reduction of management fees agreed to by at least two-thirds (2/3) of the Company's independent directors. The Company will provide the Manager 180 days prior notice of any such termination. Unless terminated for cause, the Company will pay the Manager a termination fee equal to three times the average annual management fee earned by the Manager during the prior 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. The Company may also terminate the Management Agreement at any time, without the payment of any termination fee, with 30 days prior written notice from the Company's Board of Directors for cause, which will be determined by at least two-thirds (2/3) of the Company's independent directors, which is defined as: (i) the Manager's continued material breach of any provision of the Management Agreement (including the Manager's failure to comply with the Company's investment guidelines); (ii) the Manager's fraud, misappropriation of funds, or embezzlement against the Company; (iii) the Manager's gross negligence in the performance of its duties under the Management Agreement; (iv) the occurrence of certain events with respect to the bankruptcy or insolvency of the Manager, including an order for relief in an involuntary bankruptcy case or the Manager authorizing or filing a voluntary bankruptcy petition; (v) the Manager is convicted (including a plea of nolo contendere) of a felony; or (vi) the dissolution of the Manager. In September 2018, the Company completed a secondary public offering in which it sold 6,500,000 shares of its common stock for net proceeds of approximately $67.7 million after subtracting underwriting commissions and offering expenses. Refer to Note12- "Stockholders' Equity" for details on the secondary public offering. The Company's Manager did not earn a management fee on the issued equity through March 31, 2019, to reduce any impact on earnings as the Company fully deployed the capital into its target assets. For the years ended December 31, 2019 , December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 the Company incurred $7.4 million , $8.7 million and $8.1 million in management fees, respectively. In addition to the management fee, the Company is also responsible for reimbursing the Manager for certain expenses paid by the Manager on behalf of the Company, as defined in the Management Agreement. For the years ended December 31, 2019 , December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 , the Company recorded expenses included in general and administrative expenses totaling approximately $1.6 million , $1.5 million and $1.4 million , respectively, related to reimbursable employee costs. Any such expenses incurred by the Manager and reimbursed by the Company, including the employee compensation expense, are typically included in the Company's general and administrative expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. At December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , approximately $2.0 million and approximately $4.2 million , respectively, for management fees incurred but not yet paid was included in "Payable to affiliate" in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. In addition, at December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , approximately $181 thousand and approximately $379 thousand , respectively of reimbursable costs incurred but not yet paid was included in "Payable to affiliate" in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. |

Share-based Compensation [Abstract] | |
Share-Based Payments | Share-Based Payments In conjunction with the Company's IPO and concurrent private placement, the Company's Board of Directors approved the Western Asset Mortgage Capital Corporation Equity Plan (the "Equity Plan") and the Western Asset Manager Equity Plan (the "Manager Equity Plan" and collectively the "Equity Incentive Plans"). The Equity Incentive Plans include provisions for grants of restricted common stock and other equity-based awards to the Manager, its employees and employees of its affiliates and to the Company's directors, officers and employees. The Company can issue up to 3.0% of the total number of issued and outstanding shares of its common stock (on a fully diluted basis) at the time of each award (other than any shares previously issued or subject to awards made pursuant to one of the Company's Equity Incentive Plans) under these Equity Incentive Plans. Upon the completion of the Company's most recent secondary public offering, the number of shares of common stock available under the Equity Incentive Plans increased to 1,582,594 . Approximately 894,289 of shares have been issued under the Equity Plans with 688,305 shares available for issuance as of December 31, 2019 . Under the Equity Plan, the Company made the following grants during the years ended December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 : On June 7, 2018, the Company granted a total of 25,904 shares ( 6,476 each) of restricted common stock under the Equity Plan to the Company’s four independent directors. These restricted shares vested in full on June 1, 2019, the first anniversary of the grant date. Each of the independent directors has elected to defer the shares granted to him under the Company’s Director Deferred Fee Plan (the “Director Deferred Fee Plan”). The Director Deferred Fee Plan permits eligible members of the Company's board of directors to defer certain stock awards made under its director compensation programs. The Director Deferred Fee Plan allows directors to defer issuance of their stock awards and therefore defer payment of any tax liability until the deferral is terminated, pursuant to the election form executed each year by each eligible director. On March 28, 2019, the Company granted 108,000 shares of restricted common stock to the Manager under the Manager Equity Plan. One-third of the shares will vest on March 28, 2020, one-third will vest on March 28, 2021 and the remaining one-third will vest on March 28, 2022. On June 6, 2019, the Company granted a total of 28,780 shares ( 7,195 each) of restricted common stock under the Equity Plan to the Company’s four independent directors. These restricted shares will vest in full on June 6, 2020, the first anniversary of the grant date. Each of the independent directors has elected to defer the shares granted to him under the Company’s Director Deferred Fee Plan (the “Director Deferred Fee Plan”). The Director Deferred Fee Plan permits eligible members of the Company's board of directors to defer certain stock awards made under its director compensation programs. The Director Deferred Fee Plan allows directors to defer issuance of their stock awards and therefore defer payment of any tax liability until the deferral is terminated, pursuant to the election form executed each year by each eligible director. During the years ended December 31, 2019 , December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 , 29,200 , 84,203 and 152,630 restricted common shares vested, respectively, including shares whose issuance has been deferred under the Director Deferred Fee Plan. The Company recognized stock-based compensation expense of approximately $564 thousand , $265 thousand and $981 thousand for the years ended December 31, 2019 , December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 , respectively. In addition, the Company had unamortized compensation expense of $968 thousand and $117 thousand for equity awards at December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , respectively. All restricted common shares granted, other than those whose issuance has been deferred pursuant to the Director Deferred Fee Plan, possess all incidents of ownership, including the right to receive dividends and distributions currently, and the right to vote. Dividend equivalent payments otherwise allocable to restricted common shares under the Company's Director Deferred Fee Plan are deemed to purchase additional phantom shares of the Company's common stock that are credited to each participant's deferral account. The award agreements include restrictions whereby the restricted shares cannot be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise disposed of prior to the lapse of restrictions under the respective award agreement. The restrictions lapse on the unvested restricted shares awarded when vested, subject to the grantee's continuing to provide services to the Company as of the vesting date. Unvested restricted shares and rights to dividends thereon are forfeited upon termination of the grantee. The following is a summary of restricted common stock vesting dates as of December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , including shares whose issuance has been deferred under the Director Deferred Fee Plan: December 31, 2019 December 31, 2018 Vesting Date Shares Vesting Shares Vesting June 2019 — 27,476 March 2020 36,000 — June 2020 30,592 — March 2021 36,000 — March 2022 36,000 — 138,592 27,476 The following table presents information with respect to the Company's restricted stock for the years ended December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , including shares whose issuance has been deferred under the Director Deferred Fee Plan: December 31, 2019 December 31, 2018 Shares of Restricted Stock Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value (1) Shares of Restricted Stock Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value (1) Outstanding at beginning of period 753,973 $ 16.77 725,449 $ 17.00 Granted (2) 140,316 10.34 28,524 10.75 Outstanding at end of period 894,289 $ 15.76 753,973 $ 16.77 Unvested at end of period 138,592 $ 10.34 27,476 $ 10.78 (1) The grant date fair value of restricted stock awards is based on the closing market price of the Company's common stock at the grant date.

Income Taxes | Income Taxes As a REIT, the Company is not subject to federal income tax to the extent that it makes qualifying distributions to its stockholders and satisfies on a continuing basis, through actual investment and operating results, the REIT requirements including certain asset, income and stock ownership tests. Based on the Company's analysis of any potential uncertain income tax positions, the Company concluded that it does not have any uncertain tax positions that meet the recognition or measurement criteria as of December 31, 2019 . The Company files U.S. federal and state income tax returns. As of December 31, 2019 , U.S. federal tax returns filed by the Company for 2018, 2017 and 2016 and state tax returns filed for 2018, 2017, 2016 and 2015 are open for examination pursuant to relevant statutes of limitation. In the event that the Company incurs income tax related interest and penalties, the Company's policy is to classify them as a component of its provision for income taxes. Income Tax Provision Subject to the limitation under the REIT asset test rules, the Company is permitted to own up to 100% of the stock of one or more TRS. Currently, the Company owns one TRS that is taxable as a corporation and is subject to federal, state and local income tax on its net income at the applicable corporate rates. The TRS, which was formed in Delaware on July 28, 2014, is a limited liability company and a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. For the years ended December 31, 2019 , December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 , the Company recorded a federal and state tax provision of approximately $1.1 million , $709 thousand and $3.5 million , respectively. The following table summarizes the Company's income tax provision for the years ended December 31, 2019 , December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 (dollars in thousands): For the year ended December 31, 2019 For the year ended December 31, 2018 For the year ended December 31, 2017 Current Tax Provision (Benefit) Federal $ 860 $ 709 $ 4,076 State 197 — (267 ) Total Current Provision for Income Taxes, net 1,057 709 3,809 Deferred Provision (Benefit) for Income Taxes Federal — — 85 State — — (407 ) Total Deferred Benefit for Income Taxes, net — — (322 ) Total Income Tax Provision, net $ 1,057 $ 709 $ 3,487 Deferred Tax Asset and Deferred Tax Liability As of December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , the Company recorded a deferred tax asset of approximately $8.5 million and $6.0 million , respectively, relating to capital loss carryforward and temporary differences as a result of the timing of income recognition of certain investments held in the TRS. The capital loss carryforwards may only be recognized to the extent of capital gains. There is uncertainty as to the TRS ability to recognize capital gains in the future. As a result, the Company has concluded it is more likely than not the deferred tax asset will not be realized and has recorded a full valuation allowance. In addition, the REIT generated net operating losses ("NOL's") for the year ended December 31, 2017 related to its swap terminations and for the California return a portion of the NOL's is apportioned to the TRS. The Company recorded a deferred state tax asset of $6.0 million and $5.5 million in the REIT and $1.3 million and $993 thousand in the TRS as of December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , respectively. The TRS can carryback the NOL's to each of the two preceding years and receive a refund for taxes paid. As a result, the Company has concluded it is more likely than not the deferred tax asset will not be realized with the exception of the TRS carryback to 2015 and has recorded a combined valuation allowance of $6.9 million and $6.1 million as of December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , respectively. The Company also recorded a deferred federal tax liability of $85 thousand , as of December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , in anticipation of the receipt of the state tax refund as a result of the carryback of the California NOL. The following tables disclose the components of the Company's deferred tax asset and deferred tax liability at December 31, 2019 and 2018 (dollars in thousands): Deferred Tax Asset December 31, 2019 December 31, 2018 Net operating loss available for carry-back and carry-forward (1) $ 7,295 $ 6,503 Net capital loss carry-forward (1) 6,775 4,271 Investments 1,719 1,720 Deferred tax asset 15,789 12,494 Allowance (15,382 ) (12,087 ) Net deferred tax asset $ 407 $ 407 Deferred Tax Liability December 31, 2019 December 31, 2018 Net operating loss available for carry-back and carry-forward $ 85 $ 85 Net deferred tax liability $ 85 $ 85 ( 1) Net operating loss available for carry-forward begin to expire in 2037. Net capital loss available for carry-forward begin to expire in 2020. Reconciliation of Tax Rate to Effective Tax Rate T he Company's effective tax rate differs from its combined federal and state income tax rate primarily due to the deduction of dividends distributions to be paid under Code Section 857(a). The reconciliation of these rates are as follows: For the year ended December 31, 2019 For the year ended December 31, 2018 Federal statutory rate 21.0 % 21.0 % State statutory rate, net of federal benefit (1.0 )% 1.5 % Other 0.1 % (0.8 )% Change in valuation allowance 3.6 % (1.3 )% REIT earnings not subject to corporate taxes (22.2 )% (17.8 )% Effective Tax Rate 1.5 % 2.6 % Tax Cuts and Jobs Act |

Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Basis of Presentation and Consolidation | Basis of Presentation and Consolidation The accompanying financial statements and related notes have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("GAAP"). The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its wholly -owned subsidiaries and variable interest entities ("VIEs") in which it is considered the primary beneficiary. All intercompany amounts between the Company and its subsidiaries and consolidated VIEs have been eliminated in consolidation. |
Variable Interest Entity | Variable Interest Entities VIEs are defined as entities that by design either lack sufficient equity for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support or are unable to direct the entity’s activities or are not exposed to the entity’s losses or entitled to its residual returns. The Company evaluates all of its interests in VIEs for consolidation. When the interests are determined to be variable interests, the Company assesses whether it is deemed the primary beneficiary. The primary beneficiary of a VIE is determined to be the party that has both the power to direct the activities of a VIE that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits of the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE. To assess whether the Company has the power to direct the activities of a VIE that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance, it considers all facts and circumstances, including its role in establishing the VIE and its ongoing rights and responsibilities. This assessment includes: first, identifying the activities that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance; and second, identifying which party, if any, has power over those activities. In general, the parties that make the most significant decisions affecting the VIE or have the right to unilaterally remove those decision makers is deemed to have the power to direct the activities of a VIE. To assess whether the Company has the obligation to absorb losses of the VIE or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE, it considers all of its economic interests. This assessment requires the Company to apply judgment in determining whether these interests, in the aggregate, are considered potentially significant to the VIE. Factors considered in assessing significance include: the design of the VIE, including its capitalization structure; subordination of interests; payment priority; relative share of interests held across various classes within the VIE’s capital structure; and the reasons why the interests are held by the Company. In instances where the Company and its related parties have variable interests in a VIE, the Company considers whether there is a single party in the related party group that meets both the power and losses or benefits criteria on its own as though no related party relationship existed. If one party within the related party group meets both these criteria, such reporting entity is the primary beneficiary of the VIE and no further analysis is needed. If no party within the related party group on its own meets both the power and losses or benefits criteria, but the related party group as a whole meets these two criteria, the determination of primary beneficiary within the related party group requires significant judgment. The analysis is based upon qualitative as well as quantitative factors, such as the relationship of the VIE to each of the members of the related-party group, as well as the significance of the VIE's activities to those members, with the objective of determining which party is most closely associated with the VIE. Ongoing assessments of whether an enterprise is the primary beneficiary of a VIE are required. |
Use of Estimates | Use of Estimates The preparation of the consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates. |
Earnings (Loss) per share | Earnings (Loss) Per Share GAAP requires use of the two-class method in computing earnings per share for all periods presented for each class of common stock and participating securities as if all earnings for the period had been distributed. Under the two-class method, during periods of net income, the net income is first reduced for dividends declared on all classes of securities to arrive at undistributed earnings. During periods of net losses, the net loss is reduced for dividends declared on participating securities only if the security has the right to participate in the earnings of the entity and an objectively determinable contractual obligation to share in net losses of the entity. The Company’s participating securities are not allocated a share of the net loss, as the participating securities do not have a contractual obligation to share in the net losses of the Company. The remaining earnings are allocated to common stockholders and participating securities, to the extent that each security shares in earnings, as if all of the earnings for the period had been distributed. Each total is then divided by the applicable number of weighted average outstanding common shares to arrive at basic earnings per share. For the diluted earnings, the denominator includes the weighted average outstanding common shares and all potential common shares assumed issued if they are dilutive. The numerator is adjusted for any changes in income or loss that would result from the assumed conversion of these potential common shares. |
Offering Costs | Offering Costs |
Cash and Cash Equivalents | Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company considers all highly liquid short-term investments with original maturities of 90 days or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents are exposed to concentrations of credit risk. The Company places its cash and cash equivalents with what it believes to be high credit quality institutions. At times such investments may be in excess of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insurance limit. |
Valuation of financial instruments | Valuation of Financial Instruments The Company discloses the fair value of its financial instruments according to a fair value hierarchy (Levels I, II, and III, as defined below). ASC 820, "Fair Value Measurement and Disclosures" establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands financial statement disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. ASC 820 further specifies a hierarchy of valuation techniques, which is based on whether the inputs into the valuation technique are observable or unobservable. The hierarchy is as follows: Level I — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level II — Quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations whose inputs are observable or whose significant value drivers are observable. Level III — Prices are determined using significant unobservable inputs. In situations where quoted prices or observable inputs are unavailable, for example, when there is little or no market activity for an investment at the end of the period, unobservable inputs may be used. The level in the fair value hierarchy within which a fair value measurement in its entirety falls is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. Transfers between levels are determined by the Company at the end of the reporting period. Refer to Note 3 - "Fair Value of Financial Instruments." |
Mortgage-Backed Securities and Other Securities | Mortgage-Backed Securities and Other Securities The Company's mortgage-backed securities and other securities portfolio primarily consists of Agency CMBS, Non-Agency CMBS, Agency RMBS, Non-Agency RMBS, ABS and other real estate related securities, these investments are recorded in accordance with ASC 320, “Investments - Debt and Equity Securities” and ASC 325-40, “Beneficial Interests in Securitized Financial Assets.” The Company has chosen to elect the fair value option pursuant to ASC 825, “Financial Instruments” for its mortgage-backed securities and other securities portfolio. Electing the fair value option allows the Company to record changes in fair value in the Consolidated Statements of Operations as a component of “Unrealized gain (loss), net.” If the Company purchases securities with evidence of credit deterioration, it will analyze to determine if the guidance found in ASC 310-30, “Loans and Debt Securities Acquired with Deteriorated Credit Quality” is applicable. The Company evaluates securities for other-than-temporary impairment (“OTTI”) on at least a quarterly basis. The determination of whether a security is other-than-temporarily impaired involves judgments, estimates and assumptions based on subjective and objective factors. As a result, the timing and amount of an OTTI constitutes an accounting estimate that may change materially over time. When the fair value of an investment security is less than its amortized cost at the balance sheet date, the security is considered impaired, and the impairment is designated as either “temporary” or “other-than-temporary.” When a security is impaired, an OTTI is considered to have occurred if (i) the Company intends to sell the security (i.e., a decision has been made as of the reporting date) or (ii) it is more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis. If the Company intends to sell the security or if it is more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the real estate security before recovery of its amortized cost basis, the entire amount of the impairment loss, if any, is recognized in earnings as OTTI and the cost basis of the security is adjusted to its fair value. Additionally, for securities accounted for under ASC 325-40 an OTTI is deemed to have occurred when there is an adverse change in the expected cash flows to be received and the fair value of the security is less than its carrying amount. In determining whether an adverse change in cash flows occurred, the present value of the remaining cash flows, as estimated at the initial transaction date (or the last date previously revised), is compared to the present value of the expected cash flows at the current reporting date. The estimated cash flows reflect those a “market participant” would use and are discounted at a rate equal to the current yield used to accrete interest income. Any resulting OTTI adjustments are reflected in the “Other than temporary impairment” in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Increases in interest income may be recognized on a security in which the Company previously recorded an OTTI charge if the cash flow of such security subsequently improves. In addition, unrealized losses on the Company's Agency securities, with explicit guarantee of principal and interest by the governmental sponsored entity ("GSE"), are not credit losses but rather were due to changes in interest rates and prepayment expectations. These securities would not be considered other than temporarily impaired provided the Company did not intend to sell the security. |
Residential Whole-Loans / Residential Bridge Loans | Residential Whole Loans Investments in Residential Whole Loans are recorded in accordance with ASC 310-20, "Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs." The Company has chosen to elect the fair value option pursuant to ASC 825 for our entire Residential Whole-Loan portfolio. Residential Whole Loans are recorded at fair value with periodic changes in fair market value being recorded in earnings as a component of "Unrealized gain (loss), net." All other costs incurred in connection with acquiring Residential Whole Loans or committing to purchase these loans are charged to expense as incurred. On a quarterly basis, the Company evaluates the collectability of both interest and principal of each loan, if circumstances warrant, to determine whether such loan is impaired. A loan is impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the existing contractual terms. When a loan is impaired, the Company does not record an allowance for loan loss as it has elected the fair value option. However, income recognition is suspended for loans at the earlier of the date at which payments become 90-days past due or when, in the opinion of management, a full recovery of income and principal becomes doubtful. When the ultimate collectability of the principal of an impaired loan is in doubt, all payments are applied to principal under the cost recovery method. When the ultimate collectability of the principal of an impaired loan is not in doubt, contractual interest is recorded as interest income when received, under the cash basis method until an accrual is resumed when the loan becomes contractually current and performance is demonstrated. Residential Bridge Loans For the Bridge Loans acquired prior to October 25, 2017, the Company did not elect the fair value option pursuant to ASC 825. These loans are recorded at their principal amount outstanding, net of any premium or discount. Commencing with purchases on October 25, 2017, the Company decided to elect the fair value option pursuant to ASC 825 to be consistent with the accounting of its' other investments, which are all carried at fair value. These loans are recorded at fair value with periodic changes in fair market value being recorded in earnings as a component of "Unrealized gain (loss), net." All other costs incurred in connection with acquiring the Residential Bridge Loans or committing to purchase these loans are charged to expense as incurred. A loan is impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the existing contractual terms. The Company evaluates each of its Residential Bridge Loans on a quarterly basis. These loans are individually specific as they relate to the borrower, collateral type, interest rate, LTV and term as well as geographic location. The Company evaluates the collectability of both principal and interest of each loan. When a loan is impaired, the impairment is then measured based on fair value of the collateral less cost to sell, since these loans are collateral dependent. For loans the Company did not elect the fair value option, upon measurement of impairment, the Company records an allowance to reduce the carrying value of the loan with a corresponding charge to earnings. Significant judgments are required in determining impairment, including assumptions regarding the value of the loan, the value of the underlying collateral and other provisions such as guarantees. The Company will not record an allowance for loan loss for the Residential Bridge Loans that it has elected the fair value option. Income recognition is suspended for loans at the earlier of the date at which payments become 90-days past due or when, in the opinion of management, a full recovery of income and principal becomes doubtful. When the ultimate collectability of the principal of an impaired loan is in doubt, all payments are applied to principal under the cost recovery method. When the ultimate collectability of the principal of an impaired loan is not in doubt, contractual interest is recorded as interest income when received, under the cash basis method until an accrual is resumed when the loan becomes contractually current and performance is demonstrated. |
Interest income recognition | Interest Income Recognition Agency MBS, Non-Agency MBS and other securities, excluding Interest-Only Strips, rated AA and higher at the time of purchase Interest income on mortgage-backed and other securities is accrued based on the respective outstanding principal balances and corresponding contractual terms. The Company records interest income in accordance with ASC subtopic 835-30 "Imputation of Interest," using the effective interest method. As such premiums and discounts associated with Agency MBS, Non-Agency MBS and other securities, excluding Interest-Only Strips, are amortized into interest income over the estimated life of such securities. Adjustments to premium and discount amortization are made for actual prepayment activity. The Company estimates prepayments at least quarterly for its securities and, as a result, if the projected prepayment speed increases, the Company will accelerate the rate of amortization on premiums or discounts and make a retrospective adjustment to historical amortization. Alternatively, if projected prepayment speeds decrease, the Company will reduce the rate of amortization on the premiums or discounts and make a retrospective adjustment to historical amortization. Non-Agency MBS and other securities that are rated below AA at the time of purchase and Interest-Only Strips that are not classified as derivatives Interest income on Non-Agency MBS and other securities that are rated below AA at the time of purchase and Interest-Only Strips that are not classified as derivatives are also recognized in accordance with ASC 835, using the effective yield method. The effective yield on these securities is based on the projected cash flows from each security, which is estimated based on the Company’s observation of the then current information and events, where applicable, and will 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 securities are affected by the contractual lives of the underlying collateral, periodic payments of scheduled principal, and prepayments of principal. Therefore, actual maturities of the securities will generally be shorter than stated contractual maturities. Based on the projected cash flow of such securities purchased at a discount to par value, the Company may designate a portion of such purchase discount as credit protection against future credit losses and, therefore, not accrete such amount 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. Loan Portfolio Interest income on the Company's residential loan portfolio and commercial loan portfolio is recorded using the effective interest method based on the contractual payment terms of the loan. Any premium amortization or discount accretion will be reflected as a component of "Interest income" in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. |
Purchases and Sales of Investments | Purchases and Sales of Investments The Company accounts for a contract for the purchase or sale of securities, or other securities that do not yet exist on a trade date basis, which it intends to take possession and thus recognizes the acquisition or disposition of the securities at the inception of the contract. |
Due From Counterparties/Due To Counterparties | Due From Counterparties / Due To Counterparties "Due from counterparties" represents cash posted by the Company with its counterparties as collateral for the Company’s interest rate and/or futures contracts, repurchase agreements, and TBAs. "Due to counterparties" represents cash posted with the Company by its counterparties as collateral under the Company’s interest rate and/or currency derivative financial instruments, repurchase agreements, and TBAs. Included in "Due from counterparties" and/or "Due to counterparties" are daily variation margin settlement amounts with counterparties which are based on the price movement of the Company’s futures contracts. Daily variation margin on only the Company's centrally cleared derivatives was treated as a settlement and classified as either "Derivative assets, at fair value" or "Derivative liability, at fair value" in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. In addition, as provided below, "Due to counterparties" may include non-cash collateral in which the Company has the obligation to return and which the Company has either sold or pledged. To the extent the Company receives collateral other than cash from its counterparties, such assets are not included in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company either rehypothecates such assets or pledges the assets as collateral pursuant to a repurchase agreement, the cash received and the corresponding liability are reflected in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. |
Derivatives and Hedging Activities | Derivatives and Hedging Activities Subject to maintaining its qualification as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the Company as part of its hedging strategy, we may enter into interest rate swaps, including forward starting swaps, interest rate swaptions, U.S. Treasury options, Eurodollar, Volatility Index and U.S, Treasury futures, TBAs, total return swaps, credit default swaps and forwards to hedge the interest rate and currency risk associated with its portfolio and related borrowings. Derivatives, subject to REIT requirements, are used for hedging purposes rather than speculation. The Company has also entered into a total return swap, which transfers the total return of the referenced security to the Company. The Company determines the fair value of its derivative positions and obtains quotations from third parties, including the Chicago Mercantile Exchange or CME, to facilitate the process of determining such fair values. The Company does not necessarily seek to hedge all such risks. In addition, if the Company’s hedging activities do not achieve the desired results, reported earnings may be adversely affected. GAAP requires an entity to recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities on the balance sheet and to measure those instruments at fair value. The accounting for changes in the fair value of derivatives depends on the intended use of the derivative. The fair value adjustment will affect either other comprehensive income in stockholders’ equity until the hedged item is recognized in earnings or net income depending on whether the derivative instrument is designated and qualifies as a for hedge for accounting purposes and if so, the nature of the hedging activity. The Company elected not to apply hedge accounting for its derivative instruments. Accordingly, the Company records the change in fair value of its derivative instruments, which includes net interest rate swap payments/receipts (including accrued amounts) and net currency payments/receipts (including accrued amounts) related to interest rate swaps and currency swaps, respectively, in "Gain (loss) on derivative instruments, net" in its Consolidated Statements of Operations. In January 2017, the CME amended its rulebooks to legally characterize variation margin payments and receipts for over-the-counter derivatives they clear as settlements of the derivatives' exposure rather than collateral against exposure. As a result of the change in legal characterization, effective January 1, 2017, variation margin is no longer classified as collateral in the Consolidated Balance Sheets in either "Due from counterparties" or "Due to counterparties," but rather a component of the respective "Derivative asset, at fair value" or "Derivative liability, at fair value" in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The variation margin is now considered partial settlements of the derivative contract and will result in realized gains or losses which prior to January 1, 2017 were classified as unrealized gains or losses on derivatives. Prior to the CME rulebook change variation margin was included in financing activities in the Company's Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows in either "Due from counterparties, net" or "Due to counterparties, net." Commencing in January 2017, cash postings for variation margin are included in operating activities in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. In the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, premiums received or paid on termination of its interest rate swaps are included in cash flows from operating activities. Notwithstanding the foregoing, proceeds and payments on settlement of swaptions, futures contracts and TBAs are included in cash flows from investing activities. Proceeds and payments on settlement of forward contracts are reflected in cash flows from financing activities in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. For Agency and Non-Agency Interest-Only Strips accounted for as derivatives, the purchase, sale and recovery of basis activity is included with MBS and other securities under cash flows from investing activities in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. The Company evaluates the terms and conditions of its holdings of Agency and Non-Agency Interest-Only Strips, interest rate swaptions, currency forwards, futures contracts and TBAs to determine if these instruments have the characteristics of an investment or should be considered a derivative under GAAP. In determining the classification of its holdings of Interest-Only Strips, the Company evaluates the securities to determine if the nature of the cash flows have been altered from that of the underlying mortgage collateral. Interest-Only Strips, for which the underlying mortgage collateral has been included into a structured security that alters the cash flows from the underlying mortgage collateral, are accounted for as derivatives. The carrying value of the Agency and Non-Agency Interest-Only Strips, accounted for as derivatives, is included in "Mortgage-backed securities and other securities, at fair value" in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The carrying value of interest rate swaptions, currency forwards, futures contracts and TBAs is included in "Derivative assets, at fair value" or "Derivative liability, at fair value" in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Interest earned or paid along with the change in fair value of these instruments accounted for as derivatives is recorded in "Gain (loss) on derivative instruments, net" in its Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company evaluates all of its financial instruments to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives. An embedded derivative is separated from the host contact and accounted for separately when all of the guidance criteria are met. Hybrid instruments that are remeasured at fair value through earnings, including the fair value option are not bifurcated. Derivative instruments, including derivative instruments accounted for as liabilities, are recorded at fair value and are re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value together with interest earned or paid (including accrued amounts) reported in "Gain (loss) on derivative instruments, net" in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. |
Repurchase Agreements and Reverse Repurchase Agreements | Repurchase Agreements and Reverse Repurchase Agreements Investments sold under repurchase agreements are treated as collateralized financing transactions, unless they meet all the criteria for sales treatment. Securities financed through a repurchase agreement remain in the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets as assets and cash received from the lender is recorded in the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets as a liability. Interest payable in accordance with repurchase agreements is recorded as "Accrued interest payable" in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Interest paid (including accrued amounts) in accordance with repurchase agreements is recorded as interest expense. The Company may borrow securities under reverse repurchase agreements to deliver a security owned and sold by the Company but pledged to a different counterparty under a separate repurchase agreement when in the Manager’s view terminating the outstanding repurchase agreement is not in the Company’s best interest. Cash paid to the borrower is recorded in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets as an asset. Interest receivable in accordance with reverse repurchase agreements is recorded as accrued interest receivable in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company reflects all proceeds on reverse repurchase agreement and repayment of reverse repurchase agreement, on a net basis in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. Upon sale of a pledged security, the Company recognizes an obligation to return the borrowed security in the Consolidated Balance Sheet in "Due to counterparties." The Company establishes haircuts to ensure the market value of the underlying asset remains sufficient to protect the Company in the event of default by the counterparty. Realized gains and losses associated with the sale of the security are recognized in "Realized gain (loss) on sale of investments, net" in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. |
Securitized Debt | Convertible Senior Unsecured Notes Convertible senior unsecured notes include unsecured convertible debt that is carried at its unpaid principal balance, net of any unamortized deferred issuance costs, in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. Interest on the notes is payable semiannually until such time the notes mature or are converted into shares of the Company’s common stock. ASC 470-20 "Debt-Debt with Conversion and Other Options" requires that convertible debt instruments with cash settlement features, including partial cash settlement, account for the liability component and equity component (conversion feature) of the instrument separately. The initial value of the liability component will reflect the present value of the discounted cash flows using the nonconvertible debt borrowing rate at the time of issuance. The debt discount represents the difference between the proceeds received from the issuance and the initial carrying value of the liability component, which is accreted back to the notes principal amount through interest expense over the life of the notes. |
Share-based compensation | Share-based Compensation Compensation cost related to restricted common stock issued to the Company’s independent directors, including any restricted stock which is subject to a deferred compensation program, is measured at its fair value at the grant date and amortized into expense over the service period on a straight-line basis. Compensation cost related to restricted common stock issued to the Manager and to employees of the Manager, including officers and certain directors, of the Company who are employees of the Manager and its affiliates, is initially measured at fair value at the grant date, and amortized into expense over the vesting period on a straight-line basis. |
Income taxes | Income Taxes The Company operates and has elected to be taxed as a REIT commencing with its taxable year ended December 31, 2012. Accordingly, the Company will generally not be subject to corporate U.S. federal or state income tax to the extent that the Company makes qualifying distributions to stockholders, and provided that the Company satisfies, on a continuing basis, through actual investment and operating results, the REIT requirements including certain asset, income, distribution and stock ownership tests. If the Company fails to qualify as a REIT, and does not qualify for certain statutory relief provisions, the Company will be subject to U.S. federal, state and local income taxes and may be precluded from qualifying as a REIT for the subsequent four taxable years following the year in which the Company lost its REIT qualification. Accordingly, the failure to qualify as a REIT could have a material adverse impact in the Company’s results of operations and amounts available for distribution to stockholders. As a REIT, if the Company fails to distribute in any calendar year (subject to specific timing rules for certain dividends paid in January) at least the sum of (i) 85% of its ordinary income for such year, (ii) 95% of its capital gain net income for such year, and (iii) any undistributed taxable income from the prior year, the Company would be subject to a non-deductible 4% excise tax on the excess of such required distribution over the sum of (i) the amounts actually distributed and (ii) the amounts of income retained and on which the Company has paid corporate income tax. The dividends paid deduction for qualifying dividends paid to stockholders is computed using the Company’s taxable income as opposed to net income reported in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Taxable income, generally, will differ from net income reported in the Consolidated Statements of Operations because the determination of taxable income is based on tax regulations and not GAAP. From time to time the Company may create and elect to treat certain subsidiaries as Taxable REIT Subsidiaries ("TRS"). In general, a TRS may hold assets and engage in activities that the Company cannot hold or engage in directly and generally may engage in any real estate or non-real estate-related business. A domestic TRS is subject to U.S. federal, state and local corporate income taxes, and its value, along with all other TRS's, may not exceed 20% of the value of the Company. If the TRS generates net income it may declare dividends to the Company, which will be included in the Company’s taxable income and necessitate a distribution to its stockholders. Conversely, if the Company retains earnings at the TRS level, no distribution is required and it can increase book equity of the consolidated entity. As of December 31, 2019 , the Company has a single wholly-owned subsidiary which it has elected to treat as a domestic TRS. Current and deferred taxes are recorded on earnings (losses) recognized by the Company's TRS. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are calculated based upon temporary differences between the Company's U.S. GAAP consolidated financial statements and the federal and state basis of assets and liabilities as of the Consolidated Balance Sheet date. The Company evaluates the realizability of its deferred tax assets and recognizes a valuation allowance if, based on available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of its deferred tax assets will not be realized. In evaluating the realizability of the deferred tax asset, the Company will consider the expected future taxable income, existing and projected book to tax differences as well as tax planning strategies. This analysis is inherently subjective, as it is based on forecasted earning and business and economic activity. Changes in estimates of deferred tax asset realizability, if any, are included in "Income tax provision (benefit)" in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. |
Comprehensive Income (Loss) | Comprehensive Income (Loss) The Company has none of the components of comprehensive income (loss) and therefore comprehensive income (loss) is not presented. |
Recently adopted accounting pronouncements | Recently adopted accounting pronouncements Description Adoption Date Effect on Financial Statements In July 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-11, "Earnings Per Share (Topic 260), Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (Topic 480), Derivative and Hedges (Topic 815): Part I - Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Down Round Features and Part II - Replacement of the Indefinite Deferral for Mandatory Redeemable Financial Instruments of Certain Nonpublic Entities and Certain Mandatory Redeemable Noncontrolling Interest with a Scope Exception." Part I of this update changes the classification analysis of certain financial instruments (such as warrants and convertible instruments) with down round features. Down round features are features of certain equity-linked financial instruments (or embedded features) that result in the strike price being reduced on the basis of the pricing of future equity offerings. When determining whether certain financial instruments should be classified as liabilities or equity instruments, a down round feature no longer precludes equity classification when assessing whether the instrument is indexed to an entity’s own stock. Entities that present earnings per share are required to recognize the effect of the down round feature when it is triggered. The amendments in Part II of this update recharacterize the indefinite deferral of certain provisions of Topic 480 that now are presented as pending content in the Codification, to a scope exception. Those amendments do not have an accounting effect. First quarter 2019. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements. In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-07, "Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718), Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting." The amendments in this update expand the scope of Topic 718 to include share-based payment transactions for acquiring goods and services from nonemployees. First quarter 2019. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Copompany's consolidated financial statements. In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-09, "Codification Improvements." The amendments in this update affect a wide variety of Topics in the Codification including derivatives and hedging, stock compensation-income taxes, distinguishing liabilities from equity, debt modification and extinguishment, reporting comprehensive income, business combinations-income taxes, financial services and Plan accounting. First quarter 2019. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements. Recently issued accounting pronouncements Description Effective Date Effect on Financial Statements In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.” This standard significantly changes how an entity will measure credit losses for most financial assets and certain other instruments that aren't measured at fair value through the income statement. The standard will replace the current "incurred loss" approach with an "expected loss" model for instruments measured at amortized cost. For available for sale debt securities, entities will be required to record an allowance rather than reduce the carrying amount, as is currently done under the other than temporary impairment model. It also simplifies the accounting model for purchased credit impaired debt securities and loans. In November 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-19, "Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses." This update was issued related to ASU 2016-13 to increase the stakeholders' awareness of the amendments to scope and transition and effective date requirements and to expedite the improvements. In November 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-11, "Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses." The amendments in this update clarify or address stakeholders' specific issues about certain aspects of the amendments in Update 2016-13. First quarter 2020. The Company evaluated the impact this standard will have on its consolidated financial statements. However, since the Company elects the fair value option for its financial assets, the adoption of this guidance will not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements. In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, "Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820), Disclosure Framework-Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement." The amendments in this update modify the disclosure requirements on fair value measurements including the consideration of costs and benefits. First quarter 2020. The Company evaluated the impact this standard will have on its consolidated financial statements and the adoption will not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements. In April 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-04, "Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses, Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and Topic 825, Financial Instruments." The amendments in this update represent changes to clarify, correct errors in, or improve the Codification. The amendments should make the Codification easier to understand and easier to apply by eliminating inconsistencies and providing clarification. First quarter 2020. The Company evaluated the impact this standard will have on its consolidated financial statements and the adoption will not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements. In May 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-05, "Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326)." The amendments in this Update provide entities that have certain instruments within the scope of Subtopic 326-20 with an option to irrevocably elect the fair value option in the Subtopic 825-10, Financial Instruments-Overall, upon adoption of Topic 326. An entity that elects the fair value option should subsequently apply the guidance in Subtopic 820-10, Fair Value Measurement-Overall, and 825-10. First quarter 2020. The Company evaluated the impact this standard will have on its consolidated financial statements and the adoption will not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements. In January 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-01, “Investments-Equity Securities (Topic 321), Investment-Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323, and Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815).” The amendments in this Update clarify the interaction of the accounting for equity securities under Topic 321 and investments accounted for under the equity method of accounting in Topic 323 and the accounting for certain forward contracts and purchase options accounted for under Topic 815. First quarter 2021. The Company is evaluating the impact this standard may have on its consolidated financial statements. |

Schedule of New Accounting Pronouncements and Changes in Accounting Principles | Recently adopted accounting pronouncements Description Adoption Date Effect on Financial Statements In July 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-11, "Earnings Per Share (Topic 260), Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (Topic 480), Derivative and Hedges (Topic 815): Part I - Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Down Round Features and Part II - Replacement of the Indefinite Deferral for Mandatory Redeemable Financial Instruments of Certain Nonpublic Entities and Certain Mandatory Redeemable Noncontrolling Interest with a Scope Exception."

First quarter 2019. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements. Recently issued accounting pronouncements Description Effective Date Effect on Financial Statements In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.” This standard significantly changes how an entity will measure credit losses for most financial assets and certain other instruments that aren't measured at fair value through the income statement. The standard will replace the current "incurred loss" approach with an "expected loss" model for instruments measured at amortized cost.

In May 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-05, "Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326)." The amendments in this Update provide entities that have certain instruments within the scope of Subtopic 326-20 with an option to irrevocably elect the fair value option in the Subtopic 825-10, Financial Instruments-Overall, upon adoption of Topic 326. An entity that elects the fair value option should subsequently apply the guidance in Subtopic 820-10, Fair Value Measurement-Overall, and 825-10. First quarter 2020. The Company evaluated the impact this standard will have on its consolidated financial statements and the adoption will not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
