Annaly Capital Management, Inc. · NLY · NYSE · Real Estate · REIT - Mortgage
Research dated 2026-09-13: Annaly Capital Management is a leveraged mortgage investor and lender, not a conventional landlord collecting rent from buildings. Its appeal and risk depend on whether income and gains from a broad mortgage portfolio can outrun funding costs, valuation changes, and the demands of its distribution policy. Recent profit and cash generation strengthened sharply, while leverage and uneven cash flow leave little room for a careless reading of headline earnings.

What is Annaly Capital Management (NLY), and what does it report?
Short answer · as of
Annaly allocates capital across Agency and non-Agency mortgage-backed securities, residential and commercial mortgage loans, mortgage servicing rights, credit-risk-transfer instruments, corporate debt, and other commercial real estate investments.
Research dated 2026-09-13.
Annaly allocates capital across Agency and non-Agency mortgage-backed securities, residential and commercial mortgage loans, mortgage servicing rights, credit-risk-transfer instruments, corporate debt, and other commercial real estate investments. It also lends to middle-market companies, making the business broader than a pure Agency mortgage portfolio.
Reported revenue and profit measure the performance of this financial asset base rather than sales from properties or tenants. The portfolio is financed with substantial debt, so asset income and valuation changes must be considered alongside financing obligations and the large investment balance.
Its REIT status shapes capital returns: Annaly can avoid federal corporate income tax when it distributes the required share of taxable earnings. That makes the dividend integral to the structure rather than an incidental use of excess cash.
What do the latest results show for Annaly Capital Management (NLY)?
Short answer · as of
The most recent reported quarter, Q2 FY2026, carried revenue of $2.23B.
Research dated 2026-09-13.
The latest period brought a strong rebound in revenue, net income, diluted earnings, and operating cash flow from the preceding period. The broader annual record also shows revenue expansion and a recovery in profit after an earlier loss, but quarterly results remain uneven enough that a smooth earnings trend would be misleading.
Earnings have repeatedly exceeded consensus, while reported revenue has alternated between sizable beats and misses. That divergence reinforces the need to judge Annaly through portfolio economics and cash generation rather than treating revenue estimates like those of an operating company.
Management said specified-pool valuations became more attractive after demand from government-sponsored enterprises weakened. New investment is therefore expected to be spread more evenly between forward Agency mortgage positions and specified pools; the valuation opportunity is management’s explanation, while the eventual earnings and cash effects remain to be demonstrated.

What are the financial strengths and risks for Annaly Capital Management (NLY)?
Short answer
Cash and short-term investments were $2.18B at the Sep 30, 2026 balance-sheet date. Operating cash flow was $1.62B for the quarter ended Jun 30, 2026, meaning operations generated cash. These figures do not establish a cash runway.
Research dated 2026-09-13.
Annaly has a vast investment portfolio and its cash position rose materially in the latest period, giving it more immediately available liquidity than in several recent periods. Operating cash flow also swung strongly positive after a sharp outflow.
The counterweight is a debt load that exceeds the investment balance, very low conventional liquidity ratios, and operating cash flow that has moved abruptly between inflows and outflows. Those features are central to a leveraged mortgage investor: weaker asset values, poorer financing economics, or renewed cash outflows could pressure distributable capacity even when accounting profit remains positive.
The latest declared distribution holds the recently increased payment level. Its durability is best assessed against recurring earnings, portfolio funding, and cash generation rather than the cash balance alone.
How much cash does the business generate or use?
Quarterly operating cash flow shows cash generated or used by operations.

What should you watch next at Annaly Capital Management (NLY)?
Short answer · as of
The next earnings report is expected on Jan 27, 2027.
Research dated 2026-09-13.
Watch the mix of new Agency investment between forward positions and specified pools. Management has identified more attractive pool valuations, so subsequent results should reveal whether that shift improves portfolio economics without adding disproportionate funding or valuation risk.
The next earnings release also needs to preserve the recent recovery in profit and positive operating cash flow. A renewed gap between earnings and cash generation would matter more than another headline earnings beat.
Cash, investments, debt, and the declared distribution should be read together. Rising liquidity alongside controlled leverage would strengthen the operating picture; shrinking liquidity or another large cash outflow would weaken it even if the dividend remains unchanged.

How does Annaly Capital Management compare with its peers?
Short answer
Annaly Capital Management's score ranks 4th of 9 in the bounded comparison shown, against 8 same-model peers. These are company scores, not expected investment returns. The set lists named competitors first, then companies in the same data-provider industry classification closest in market value; that classification is the provider's, not our judgment of business similarity.
Research dated 2026-09-13.
Compared with a narrowly focused Agency mortgage REIT, Annaly spreads capital across government-backed and privately issued mortgage securities, whole loans, servicing rights, credit-transfer instruments, corporate debt, and commercial real estate exposures. It also participates in middle-market lending.
That breadth creates more sources of return, but it also makes Annaly less reducible to a simple wager on Agency mortgage spreads. Credit performance, servicing-right values, commercial exposures, asset selection, financing conditions, and portfolio mix can all matter alongside the Agency book.
The company’s compact workforce relative to its asset base further marks it as a capital-management platform rather than a property operator. Comparisons are most useful against other leveraged mortgage investors with similar asset and funding mixes, not against rent-collecting equity REITs.

What Investors Ask About Annaly Capital Management (NLY) — Real Estate
Research dated 2026-09-13; the full attribution is under Sources. The last 2 questions are answered from this page's own dated data, not from the research.
What does Annaly own beyond Agency mortgage-backed securities?
Its portfolio extends to non-Agency mortgage securities, residential and commercial mortgage loans, mortgage servicing rights, credit-risk-transfer instruments, corporate debt, other commercial real estate investments, and middle-market lending. This breadth exposes results to more than Agency mortgage pricing and funding conditions.
How is Annaly changing its mix of forward Agency positions and specified pools?
Management expects new investment to be balanced more evenly across forward Agency mortgage positions and specified pools after pool valuations became more attractive as demand from government-sponsored enterprises weakened. Future portfolio results will show the financial effect of that allocation change.
Why is Annaly’s dividend tied closely to its REIT structure?
Annaly’s REIT tax treatment depends on distributing the required share of taxable earnings. The latest declaration maintains the recently increased payment level, although recurring earnings and cash generation remain more informative about durability than the declaration alone.
Can Annaly’s cash offset the risks of its mortgage portfolio funding?
Cash and short-term investments improved, but they remain small beside debt and total liabilities, while much of the broader liquid-looking balance is classified as long-term investments. The combination of leverage, low conventional liquidity ratios, and volatile operating cash flow means cash should be viewed as a buffer rather than an offset to funding risk.

| Business description | Annaly Capital Management, Inc. (NLY) operates as a multifaceted financial firm, specializing in managing capital across various sectors. Its core business encompasses mortgage-related investments and lending to middle-market corporations. NLY strategically deploys capital across a diverse range of assets, including government-sponsored (Agency) and privately-issued (non-Agency) mortgage-backed securities, residential and commercial mortgage loans, mortgage servicing rights, credit risk transfer instruments, corporate debt, and other commercial real estate investments. Operating as a Real Estate Investment Trust (REIT), Annaly benefits from a particular tax structure. This designation exempts it from federal corporate income tax, provided it distributes the majority of its taxable earnings to its investors.
