Management Update "The March 2024 U.S. GDP report surprised the market with a lower-than-expected growth rate of 1.6%, signaling potential late-stage cycle conditions in the U.S. economy. Without further depletion of U.S. consumer savings in the first quarter, GDP could have been 100 bps lower. We expect slow-to-moderate growth for the rest of the year with an increasing risk of recession. In response, we continue to take a balanced approach to opportunities by intentionally lowering credit exposure or by avoiding identifiable risks. We believe that fixed income investments, particularly short-duration mortgage credit and Agency RMBS, continue to provide compelling returns in this economic backdrop. In the first quarter, we continued to reduce our exposure to multi-family joint venture equity investments (“JV Equity”), which represents less than 5% of the Company’s capital allocation at the end of the quarter. Divestment of the JV Equity portfolio has been a challenge in a higher rate environment alongside unfavorable market conditions, which has negatively impacted valuations. The impairments in the JV Equity book are the primary driver of the -9.08% decline of Adjusted Book Value in the first quarter. However, as our exposure to JV Equity approaches zero and our allocations to Agency RMBS increase, we expect book value volatility to subside. With the Company’s current liquidity, we are excited to prudently grow the Company’s balance sheet for income growth in the year." — Jason Serrano, Chief Executive Officer To Our Stockholders 3

Market Update 8 See Glossary and End Notes in the Appendix. U.S. Economy Showing Signs of Late Cycle Conditions GDP • In Q4 2023, U.S. GDP slowed to 3.4% from the 4.9% pace in the prior quarter. • In early 2024, U.S. GDP surprised to the downside at 1.60% versus economist projections of 2.50%. • Without further drawdown on the personal savings rate by 0.40%, Q1 U.S. GDP would have been approximately 0.50%. • Recession risk remains elevated. 3.40% 2.50% 1.60% Last (Q4 '23) Expected (Q1 '24) Actual (Q1 '24) Source: U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis Source: Federal Reserve (Funds Rate and Target); Bureau of Labor Statistics (CPI); Bureau of Economic Analysis (PCE); inflation rates are annual Rates and InflationQ1 Real GDP 20212020 2022 2023 2024 Inflation • The BEA released the Fed’s preferred inflation measure, Core PCE, for March which was 2.8% year-over-year. • Higher inflation was primarily driven by the services industry. • Durable goods showed negative price growth in March. • While inflation measures are sharply lower from peak rates, the final 80 bps to meet the Fed’s inflation target of 2% is proving difficult to achieve.

Single-Family Agency RMBS Market Agency Market • In the quarter, current coupon mortgage spreads remained range-bound and ended effectively unchanged from Q4 2023, despite interest rates drifting higher. • The pace of Agency RMBS acquisitions slowed given the resiliency of mortgage spreads in the face of a higher interest rate environment. NYMT continues to actively monitor the market for more attractive entry points to continue growing the portfolio.

2024 Focus Utilize a Strong and Flexible Balance Sheet to Capture Long-Term Value: • Maximize liquidity with low-cost operating structure to afford a patient investment approach. • Continue with increased exposure to principal- protected, highly liquid assets to offset credit portfolio run-off and to capture opportunities if the economy slows. • Invest through the strength of our asset management platform to unlock value. The Company is focused on opportunities in a market undergoing a structural landscape change. Balance sheet growth is expected to continue with Agency securities, short-term bridge loans, and structured derivatives. In this new environment, success may be achieved through organic creation of liquidity, tactical asset management, and prudent liability management. 23

Yields By Strategy Quarter over Quarter Comparison Net Interest Spread (1Q’24 vs 4Q’23) Net Interest Spread increased 29 bps from the prior quarter, primarily as a result of: • Increase in yield on average interest earning assets of 17 bps due to an increase in the average coupon rate of business purpose loans acquired during the quarter • Decrease in average financing cost of 12 bps due to the securitization of residential loans previously financed through repurchase agreements with higher financing costs and the benefit of our in-the-money interest rate swaps See Glossary and End Notes in the Appendix. *Represents a non-GAAP financial measure.

Appendix 36

Non-GAAP Financial Measures Adjusted Net Interest Income and Net Interest Spread In addition to the results presented in accordance with GAAP, this supplemental presentation includes certain non-GAAP financial measures, including adjusted interest income, adjusted interest expense, adjusted net interest income, yield on average interest earning assets, average financing cost, net interest spread, undepreciated (loss) earnings and adjusted book value per common share. Our management team believes that these non-GAAP financial measures, when considered with our GAAP financial statements, provide supplemental information useful for investors as it enables them to evaluate our current performance and trends using the metrics that management uses to operate our business. Our presentation of non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures of other companies, who may use different calculations. Because these measures are not calculated in accordance with GAAP, they should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, the financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. Our GAAP financial results and the reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures included in this supplemental presentation to the most directly comparable financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP should be carefully evaluated. Financial results for the Company during a given period include the net interest income earned on our investment portfolio of residential loans, RMBS, CMBS, ABS and preferred equity investments and mezzanine loans, where the risks and payment characteristics are equivalent to and accounted for as loans (collectively, our “interest earning assets”). Adjusted net interest income and net interest spread (both supplemental non-GAAP financial measures) are impacted by factors such as our cost of financing, including our hedging costs, and the interest rate that our investments bear. Furthermore, the amount of premium or discount paid on purchased investments and the prepayment rates on investments will impact adjusted net interest income as such factors will be amortized over the expected term of such investments. We provide the following non-GAAP financial measures, in total and by investment category, for the respective periods: • Adjusted Interest Income – calculated as our GAAP interest income reduced by the interest expense recognized on Consolidated SLST CDOs, • Adjusted Interest Expense – calculated as our GAAP interest expense reduced by the interest expense recognized on Consolidated SLST CDOs and adjusted to include the net interest component of interest rate swaps, • Adjusted Net Interest Income – calculated by subtracting Adjusted Interest Expense from Adjusted Interest Income, • Yield on Average Interest Earning Assets – calculated as the quotient of our Adjusted Interest Income and our average interest earning assets and excludes all Consolidated SLST assets other than those securities owned by the Company, • Average Financing Cost – calculated as the quotient of our Adjusted Interest Expense and the average outstanding balance of our interest bearing liabilities, excluding Consolidated SLST CDOs and mortgages payable on real estate, and • Net Interest Spread – calculated as the difference between our Yield on Average Interest Earning Assets and our Average Financing Cost. These measures remove the impact of Consolidated SLST that we consolidate in accordance with GAAP and include the net interest component of interest rate swaps utilized to hedge the variable cash flows associated with our variable-rate borrowings, which is included in gains (losses) on derivative instruments, net in the Company's condensed consolidated statements of operations. With respect to Consolidated SLST, we only include the interest income earned by the Consolidated SLST securities that are actually owned by the Company as the Company only receives income or absorbs losses related to the Consolidated SLST securities actually owned by the Company. We include the net interest component of interest rate swaps in these measures to more fully represent the cost of our financing strategy. We provide the non-GAAP financial measures listed above because we believe these non-GAAP financial measures provide investors and management with additional detail and enhance their understanding of our interest earning asset yields, in total and by investment category, relative to the cost of our financing and the underlying trends within our portfolio of interest earning assets. In addition to the foregoing, our management team uses these measures to assess, among other things, the performance of our interest earning assets in total and by asset, possible cash flows from our interest earning assets in total and by asset, our ability to finance or borrow against the asset and the terms of such financing and the composition of our portfolio of interest earning assets, including acquisition and disposition determinations. The following slides present reconciliations of GAAP interest income to Adjusted Interest Income, GAAP interest expense to Adjusted Interest Expense and GAAP net interest income to Adjusted Net Interest Income for our single-family and corporate/other portfolios and the Company for the periods indicated.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures Undepreciated (Loss) Earnings Undepreciated (Loss) Earnings is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure defined as GAAP net (loss) income attributable to Company's common stockholders excluding the Company's share in depreciation expense and lease intangible amortization expense, if any, related to operating real estate, net, for which an impairment has not been recognized. By excluding these non-cash adjustments from our operating results, we believe that the presentation of Undepreciated (Loss) Earnings provides a consistent measure of our operating performance and useful information to investors to evaluate the effective net return on our portfolio. In addition, we believe that presenting Undepreciated (Loss) Earnings enables our investors to measure, evaluate, and compare our operating performance to that of our peers. A reconciliation of net (loss) income attributable to Company's common stockholders to Undepreciated (Loss) Earnings for the periods indicated is presented below: Dollar Amounts in Thousands (except per share data) 1Q'24 4Q'23 3Q'23 2Q'23 1Q'23 Net (loss) income attributable to Company's common stockholders $ (68,340) $ 31,465 $ (94,819) $ (37,202) $ 10,521 Add: Depreciation expense on operating real estate 6,326 2,232 2,182 2,180 2,120 Undepreciated (Loss) Earnings $ (62,014) $ 33,697 $ (92,637) $ (35,022) $ 12,641 Weighted average shares outstanding - basic 91,117 90,683 90,984 91,193 91,314 Undepreciated (Loss) Earnings per common share $ (0.68) $ 0.37 $ (1.02) $ (0.38) $ 0.14 See Glossary and End Notes in the Appendix. 41

Non-GAAP Financial Measures Adjusted Book Value Per Common Share Adjusted book value per common share is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure calculated by making the following adjustments to GAAP book value: (i) exclude the Company's share of cumulative depreciation and lease intangible amortization expenses related to real estate held at the end of the period for which an impairment has not been recognized, (ii) exclude the cumulative adjustment of redeemable non-controlling interests to estimated redemption value and (iii) adjust our amortized cost liabilities that finance our investment portfolio to fair value. Our rental property portfolio includes fee simple interests in single-family rental homes and joint venture equity interests in multi-family properties owned by Consolidated Real Estate VIEs. By excluding our share of cumulative non-cash depreciation and amortization expenses related to real estate held at the end of the period for which an impairment has not been recognized, adjusted book value reflects the value, at their undepreciated basis, of our single-family rental properties and joint venture equity investments that the Company has determined to be recoverable at the end of the period. Additionally, in connection with third party ownership of certain of the non-controlling interests in certain of the Consolidated Real Estate VIEs, we record redeemable non-controlling interests as mezzanine equity on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. The holders of the redeemable non-controlling interests may elect to sell their ownership interests to us at fair value once a year, subject to annual minimum and maximum amount limitations, resulting in an adjustment of the redeemable non-controlling interests to fair value that is accounted for by us as an equity transaction in accordance with GAAP. A key component of the estimation of fair value of the redeemable non-controlling interests is the estimated fair value of the multi-family apartment properties held by the applicable Consolidated Real Estate VIEs. However, because the corresponding real estate assets are not reported at fair value and thus not adjusted to reflect unrealized gains or losses in our condensed consolidated financial statements, the cumulative adjustment of the redeemable non-controlling interests to fair value directly affects our GAAP book value. By excluding the cumulative adjustment of redeemable non-controlling interests to estimated redemption value, Adjusted Book Value more closely aligns the accounting treatment applied to these real estate assets and reflects our joint venture equity investment at its undepreciated basis. The substantial majority of our remaining assets are financial or similar instruments that are carried at fair value in accordance with the fair value option in our condensed consolidated financial statements. However, unlike our use of the fair value option for the assets in our investment portfolio, certain CDOs issued by our residential loan securitizations, senior unsecured notes and subordinated debentures that finance our investment portfolio assets are carried at amortized cost in our condensed consolidated financial statements. By adjusting these financing instruments to fair value, Adjusted Book Value reflects the Company's net equity in investments on a comparable fair value basis. We believe that the presentation of Adjusted Book Value per common share provides a useful measure for investors and us as it provides a consistent measure of our value, allows management to effectively consider our financial position and facilitates the comparison of our financial performance to that of our peers. The following slide presents a reconciliation of GAAP book value to Adjusted Book Value and calculation of Adjusted Book Value per common share as of the dates indicated.
