Read MoreHide Full Article
Key Takeaways
Annaly is set to report Q3 earnings after market close on Oct. 22, 2025.
Consensus sees NII at $447M and EPS of 72 cents per share, both up year over year.
Tighter MBS spreads and slower prepayments likely aided book value gains.
Annaly Capital Management Inc. (NLY - Free Report) is scheduled to report third-quarter 2025 results on Oct. 22, after market close. The company’s results are expected to reflect year-over-year increases in earnings and net interest income (NII) in the quarter to be reported.
In the last reported quarter, the mortgage real estate investment trust (mREIT) earnings available for distribution per share topped the Zacks Consensus Estimate. Improvements in the average yield on interest-earning assets supported results. However, the company registered a year-over-year decline in book value per share (BVPS).
Annaly has a decent earnings surprise history. Its earnings beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate in three of the trailing four quarters and missed once, the average surprise being 2.19%.

Factors to Shape NLY’s Q3 Performance
Despite interest rate cuts by the Federal Reserve in mid-September, mortgage rates did not come down meaningfully. In the third quarter, mortgage rates remained in a range-bound pattern. As such, refinancing activities and origination volumes witnessed decent growth.
Amid this, a significant portion of NLY’s MBS holdings is anticipated to have witnessed elevated levels of constant prepayment rate. This is expected to have positively impacted net premium amortization in the third quarter, thereby supporting growth in interest income and average asset yield.
Agency MBS spreads tightened sharply in the third quarter, given lower interest rate volatility. As such, Annaly is likely to have seen some improvement in its book value per share in the quarter to be reported.
Given slower prepayment speeds in the third quarter, the company’s mortgage servicing rights portfolio is likely to have been impacted positively to some extent. This is anticipated to have increased NLY's servicing fees in the quarter to be reported.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for net servicing income of $126 million indicates a year-over-year rise of 15.6%.

Our proven model does not show that an earnings beat is likely for NLY this time around. This is because the company does not have the right combination of the two key ingredients — a positive Earnings ESP and Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) or higher — for increasing the odds of an earnings beat.
