third quarter 2024 is in Farmer Mac's
Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended
September 30, 2024, filed today with the SEC.
Use of Non-GAAP Measures
In the accompanying analysis of its financial information,
Farmer Mac uses "non-GAAP measures," which are measures of
financial performance that are not presented in accordance with
GAAP. Specifically, Farmer Mac uses the following non-GAAP
measures: "core earnings," "core earnings per share," and "net
effective spread." Farmer Mac uses these non-GAAP measures to
measure corporate economic performance and develop financial plans
because, in management's view, they are useful alternative measures
in understanding Farmer Mac's economic performance, transaction
economics, and business trends. The non-GAAP financial measures
that Farmer Mac uses may not be comparable to similarly labeled
non-GAAP financial measures disclosed by other companies. Farmer
Mac's disclosure of these non-GAAP measures is intended to be
supplemental in nature and is not meant to be considered in
isolation from, as a substitute for, or as more important than, the
related financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP.
Core Earnings and Core Earnings Per Share
The main difference between core earnings and core earnings per
share (non-GAAP measures) and net income attributable to common
stockholders and earnings per common share (GAAP measures) is that
those non-GAAP measures exclude the effects of fair value
fluctuations. These fluctuations are not expected to have a
cumulative net impact on Farmer Mac's financial condition or
results of operations reported in accordance with GAAP if the
related financial instruments are held to maturity, as is expected.
Another difference is that these two non-GAAP measures exclude
specified infrequent or unusual transactions that we believe are
not indicative of future operating results and that may not reflect
the trends and economic financial performance of Farmer Mac's core
business. For example, in third quarter 2024, we excluded the loss
on the retirement of the Series C Preferred Stock from core
earnings and core earnings per share.
Net Effective Spread
Farmer Mac uses net effective spread to measure the net spread
Farmer Mac earns between its interest-earning assets and the
related net funding costs of these assets. As further explained
below, net effective spread differs from net interest income and
net interest yield by excluding certain items from net interest
income and net interest yield and including certain other items
that net interest income and net interest yield do not contain.
Farmer Mac excludes from net effective spread the interest
income and interest expense associated with the consolidated trusts
and the average balance of the loans underlying these trusts to
reflect management's view that the net interest income Farmer Mac
earns on the related Farmer Mac Guaranteed Securities owned by
third parties is effectively a guarantee fee. Accordingly, the
excluded interest income and interest expense associated with
consolidated trusts is reclassified to guarantee and commitment
fees in determining Farmer Mac's core earnings. Farmer Mac also
excludes from net effective spread the fair value changes of
financial derivatives and the corresponding assets or liabilities
designated in fair value hedge accounting relationships because
they are not expected to have an economic effect on Farmer Mac's
financial performance, as we expect to hold the financial
derivatives and corresponding hedged items to maturity.
Net effective spread also differs from net interest income and
net interest yield because it includes the accrual of income and
expense related to the contractual amounts due on financial
derivatives that are not designated in hedge accounting
relationships ("undesignated financial derivatives"). Farmer Mac
uses interest rate swaps to manage its interest rate risk exposure
by synthetically modifying the interest rate reset or maturity
characteristics of certain assets and liabilities. The accrual of
the contractual amounts due on interest rate swaps designated in
hedge accounting relationships is included as an adjustment to the
yield or cost of the hedged item and is included in net interest
income. For undesignated financial derivatives, Farmer Mac records
the income or expense related to the accrual of the contractual
amounts due in "(Losses)/gains on financial derivatives" on the
consolidated statements of operations. However, the accrual of the
contractual amounts due for undesignated financial derivatives are
included in Farmer Mac's calculation of net effective spread.
Net effective spread also differs from net interest income and
net interest yield because it includes the net effects of
terminations or net settlements on financial derivatives, which
consist of: (1) the net effects of cash settlements on agency
forward contracts on the debt of other GSEs and U.S. Treasury
security futures that we use as short-term economic hedges on the
issuance of debt; and (2) the net effects of initial cash payments
that Farmer Mac receives upon the inception of certain swaps. The
inclusion of these items in net effective spread is intended to
reflect our view of the complete net spread between an asset and
all of its related funding, including any associated derivatives,
whether or not they are designated in a hedge accounting
relationship.
More information about Farmer Mac's use of non-GAAP measures is
available in "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations—Results of Operations" in
Farmer Mac's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 2023, filed February 23, 2024 with the SEC. For a
reconciliation of Farmer Mac's net income attributable to common
stockholders to core earnings and of earnings per common share to
core earnings per share, and net interest income and net interest
yield to net effective spread, see "Reconciliations" below.
Forward-Looking Statements
Management's expectations for Farmer Mac's future necessarily
involve assumptions, estimates, and the evaluation of risks and
uncertainties. Various factors or events, both known and unknown,
could cause Farmer Mac's actual results to differ materially from
the expectations as expressed or implied by the forward-looking
statements in this release, including uncertainties about:
- the availability to Farmer Mac of debt and equity financing
and, if available, the reasonableness of rates and terms;
- legislative or regulatory developments that could affect Farmer
Mac, its sources of business, or agricultural or rural
infrastructure industries;
- fluctuations in the fair value of assets held by Farmer Mac and
its subsidiaries;
- the level of lender interest in Farmer Mac's products and the
secondary market provided by Farmer Mac;
- the general rate of growth in agricultural mortgage and rural
infrastructure indebtedness;
- the effect of economic conditions stemming from disruptive
global events or otherwise on agricultural mortgage or rural
infrastructure lending, borrower repayment capacity, or collateral
values, including inflation, fluctuations in interest rates,
changes in U.S. trade policies, fluctuations in export demand for
U.S. agricultural products and foreign currency exchange rates,
supply chain disruptions, increases in input costs, labor
availability, and volatility in commodity prices;
- the degree to which Farmer Mac is exposed to interest rate risk
resulting from fluctuations in Farmer Mac's borrowing costs
relative to market indexes;
- developments in the financial markets, including possible
investor, analyst, and rating agency reactions to events involving
government-sponsored enterprises, including Farmer Mac;
- the effects of the Federal Reserve's efforts to achieve
monetary policy normalization to respond to inflation and
employment levels; and
- other factors that could hinder agricultural mortgage lending
or borrower repayment capacity, including the effects of severe
weather, flooding and drought, climate change, or fluctuations in
agricultural real estate values.
Other risk factors are discussed in "Risk Factors" in Part I,
Item 1A in Farmer Mac's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year
ended December 31, 2023, as filed
with the SEC on February 23, 2024.
Considering these potential risks and uncertainties, no undue
reliance should be placed on any forward-looking statements
expressed in this release. The forward-looking statements contained
in this release represent management's expectations as of the date
of this release. Farmer Mac undertakes no obligation to release
publicly the results of revisions to any forward-looking statements
included in this release to reflect new information or any future
events or circumstances, except as otherwise required by applicable
law. The information in this release is not necessarily indicative
of future results.

fair value, originally included in interest income, to reflect core
earnings amounts.
|
(2)

fee.
|
(3)
|
Includes the
reclassification of interest expense related to interest rate swaps
not designated as hedges, which are included in "(Losses)/gains on
financial derivatives" on the consolidated financial statements, to

Net adjustments to
reconcile to the corresponding income measures: core earnings
before income taxes reconciled to income before income taxes; core
earnings before preferred stock dividends reconciled to net income;
