2Q15 Financial Overview Unaudited Income Statement Balance Sheet Portfolio (1) "Core earnings" represents a non-GAAP measure and is defined as net income (loss) excluding gains or losses on disposals of investments and termination of interest rate swaps, unrealized gains or losses on interest rate swaps and Agency interest-only mortgage-backed securities, net gains and losses on trading assets, impairment losses, net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interest, and certain other nonrecurring gains or losses and inclusive of dollar roll income (a component of net gains and losses on trading assets). (2) For purposes of calculating the Company’s leverage ratio, debt consists of repurchase agreements, other secured financing, Convertible Senior Notes, securitized debt, participation sold and mortgages payable. Securitized debt, participation sold and mortgages payable are non-recourse to the Company. (3) Computed as the sum of debt, TBA derivative notional outstanding and net forward purchases of Investment Securities divided by total equity. (4) Total stockholders’ equity divided by total assets inclusive of outstanding market value of TBA positions. (5) Consists of Investment Securities, U.S. Treasury Securities, securities borrowed, commercial real estate debt and preferred equity, corporate debt, reverse repurchase agreements and cash and cash equivalents. Interest earning assets reflects the average amortized cost of our investments during the period. (6) Represents the sum of the Company’s annualized economic net interest income, inclusive of interest expense on interest rate swaps used to hedge cost of funds, plus dollar roll income less interest expense on swaps used to hedge dollar roll transactions divided by the sum of its average interest-earning assets plus average outstanding TBA derivative balances. (7) Investment Securities consist of Agency mortgage-backed securities, Agency debentures and Agency CRT securities. GAAP net income of $900.1 million, or $0.93 earnings per average common share, resulting in an annualized GAAP return on average equity of 28.00% Core earnings(1) of $411.1 million, or $0.41 per average common share, generating an annualized core return on average equity of 12.79% Declared a $0.30 dividend per common share Common stock book value per share of $12.32 End of period total debt to equity of 4.8x(2); economic leverage ratio of 5.9x(3) End of period capital ratio of 14.2%(4) Weighted average days to maturity on repurchase agreements of 149 days Average yield on interest earning assets(5) of 3.23% and net interest spread of 1.64% during the quarter; net interest margin(6) of 2.01% End of period Investment Securities(7) of $68.2 billion End of period commercial real estate portfolio value of approximately $1.8 billion with a net economic equity investment of $1.3 billion, producing a levered yield of 9.92% 2

Strategy Overview Unaudited Portfolio Positioning Market Opportunities Liability and Interest Rate Management Federal Reserve is likely to raise rates before the end of 2015, although we expect a shallow tightening path going forward and continued portfolio reinvestments well into 2016 to be generally supportive of the Agency mortgage-backed securities (“Agency MBS”) market During the second quarter of 2015, economic leverage was up modestly. We purchased $4.2 billion and disposed of $2.5 billion of Investment Securities, with the increase in purchases largely reflecting reinvestment of runoff Commercial assets remain at 13% of stockholders’ equity Expected levered return on equity of 9% to 11% on purchase of Agency MBS in current market environment Specified pool pay-ups declined during the quarter as investors demanded less call protection in a modestly higher rate environment. Despite the lower pay-up levels, TBAs remain attractive given favorable financing conditions In addition to Agency MBS and commercial real estate, we see opportunities across a broader spectrum of residential credit assets, which is in line with our philosophy of diversifying across business strategies that offer attractive returns and help us better manage interest rate cycles Expected unlevered return of 3.0% to 4.5% for commercial first mortgages pre-securitization with opportunity to hold subordinated tranches yielding 8% to 10% post-securitization, and 7% to 9% unlevered return on equity through commercial mezzanine investments Expected unlevered stabilized return on commercial real estate property investments of 6% to 7% with opportunity to attractively finance with debt that increases cash-on-cash return to 9%+, not including the potential for asset price appreciation Maintain current relatively conservative portfolio leverage in anticipation of taking advantage of future market opportunities that may arise Continue to maintain focus on longer term funding agreements to manage short term interest rate uncertainty Selectively utilize derivatives to hedge against higher interest rates and spikes in volatility 3

Interest Rate Market Performance Following significant rate declines earlier this year, longer-dated interest rates rose and the yield curve steepened in Q2 Rising rates were driven by moderate increases in inflation expectations and term premium Risk events around Greek debt and concerns around global growth prospects resulted in elevated volatility during the quarter Central bank actions, including prospects of the Fed raising rates later this year amid continued improvement in the U.S. labor market, should continue to drive interest rates We expect that the Federal Reserve will raise rates in the second half of 2015; pace of tightening beyond lift-off is far more important than the timing of the first hike We anticipate that the pace of Fed tightening will be gradual given the current growth and inflation outlook Treasury Yield Changes Change Over Q2'15 Change 3/31/15 to date (Through 07/28/2015) U.S. vs. German 10-year Yields Percent bps Source: Bloomberg 4

MBS Market Performance MBS basis underperformed in Q2 2015 driven by higher rates and elevated volatility Underperformance was led by lower coupons; 15-year sector generally performed in line with 30-year securities Prepayment speeds peaked in the early spring and have declined since Given higher rates and lower projected prepayment speeds, specified pool pay-ups declined as demand for prepayment protection moderated Dollar rolls continue to exhibit pockets of specialness, particularly close to TBA settlement dates Fed reinvestment purchases continue to provide support to dollar roll valuations as Fed continues to take out a large portion of cheapest-to-deliver MBS with worst prepayment characteristics MBS Hedge-Adjusted Price Performance 2015 Q2 to Date Specified Pool Payups Source: Credit Suisse, Citigroup (payups data), Annaly calculations. * MBS relative performance vs. swaps reflects cumulative price performance of an MBS position hedged with a combination of 2-yr, 5-yr and 10-yr interest rate swaps on March 31, 2015. Calculations are based on Credit Suisse’ model MBS partial duration profile. Cumulative performance does not include net coupon earnings and assumes no rebalancing of swap hedges. Cumulative performance is through July 28, 2015. 5
