MFA Financial reported Q2 2026 results on August 5, 2026. Earnings per share were $0.12, half the $0.24 of Q2 2025 and 51.10% below the $0.25 estimate. Revenue of $58.6 million missed the $65.8 million consensus by 11.04% and was about 4% lower than the $61.3 million of a year earlier.
Results in the table swing widely. MFA lost money in all four quarters of 2022, for a full-year loss of $2.56 per share, and again in Q2 and Q3 2023. Full-year EPS then went from $0.13 in 2023 to $1.55 in 2024 and $1.00 in 2025. The first half of 2026 totals $0.42, compared with $0.53 a year earlier. Q2 2026 was the smallest profit since MFA returned to positive EPS in Q4 2023. The company beat the EPS estimate in 6 of the last 20 quarters and in just 1 of the last 8, Q4 2025, by 0.52%.
MFA reported Q3 between November 3 and November 7 in each of the past five years. That points to early November 2026 for the next report. It will show whether EPS moves back toward the $0.20 to $0.30 range of the quarters before Q2 2026.
