Description: TWO Two Harbors Investments November 15, 2025

Two Harbors Investment Corp. (NYSE:TWO) is a REIT that acquires, finances, and manages mortgage-servicing rights (MSRs) and agency residential mortgage-backed securities (RMBS) through its RoundPoint platform. Its asset universe spans fixed-rate, adjustable-rate, hybrid mortgages and related derivatives, as well as non-agency and non-hedging financial instruments. Because it is structured as a REIT, it must distribute at least 90 % of taxable income to shareholders each year.

Key metrics that investors watch include a FY 2023 dividend yield of roughly 10.2 % and a net asset value (NAV) of about $12.5 per share, reflecting a $15 billion MSR portfolio. The company’s earnings are highly sensitive to Federal Reserve policy: rising rates tend to boost MSR spreads but also increase prepayment risk, while a slowdown in the U.S. housing market can compress agency RMBS spreads and pressure cash flows. Additionally, the broader Mortgage REIT sector is currently driven by the widening spread between Treasury yields and agency MBS coupons, a factor that directly influences TWO’s net interest margin.
