Detailed endnotes and a glossary of defined terms are included at the end of this presentation. Despite heightened policy uncertainty, U.S. economic data has remained resilient 6  The U.S. economy has slowed but continues to perform well considering the meaningful policy changes seen in 2025 thus far − GDP growth is tracking roughly half of its 2024 pace, but there are limited signs of an imminent, pronounced downturn  The U.S. labor market is at a point of supply and demand balance. Hiring has slowed relative to recent years, but reduced immigration trends suggest the unemployment rate can remain low as fewer workers need employment  Inflation surprised to the downside in the second quarter with slowing services sector inflation more than offsetting increases in some goods categories − However, the timing and impact of tariffs on inflation data remains to be seen  Interest rate markets saw meaningful volatility in April given the tariff announcements. Rates stabilized later in the quarter as the yield curve steepened given higher term premia and more Federal Reserve cuts priced for 2026  Following the sharp tightening in April, financial conditions have eased to some of the most supportive levels since 2022 Hiring is steady at a lower pace Slower services inflation offset uptick in goods Long-term interest rates continued to rise Financial conditions eased back to 2022 levels 5.0 3.9 3.0 3.5 4.0 4.5 5.0 5.5 07/01/24 11/01/24 03/01/25 07/01/25 30y 2y Treasury Yields, %(3) 97 98 99 100 101 2021 2022 2023 2024 GS U.S. Financial Conditions Index(4) Lower levels indicative of easier financial conditions 3.00 3.25 3.50 3.75 4.00 4.25 4.50 0 100 200 300 400 500 600 2022 2023 2024 2025 3m Job Gains (lhs) Hiring Rate (rhs) Job Gains, '000 (lhs) vs. JOLTS Hiring Rate, % (rhs)(1) 0.7% 3.3% -2 0 2 4 6 8 2019 2020 2021 2022 2023 2024 2025 Goods Services PCE Core Inflation, % yoy(2)

Agency Portfolio Detail Assets Hedges(1) Funding(2) Strategic Approach  Despite the decline in volatility and a steeper yield curve, Agency MBS has lagged behind the recovery exhibited in other risk assets − Spreads tightened considerably following tariff-related volatility in April, but remain ~5-10 basis points wide of Q1 2025 lows  While the supply outlook has modestly improved, demand continued to be dependent on money managers − Regulatory reform and easing in monetary policy should help spur demand from banks and overseas accounts  Prepayments remained muted given interest rate environment − Industry consolidation and technological advancements could have a negative impact on the convexity profile of the MBS sector Market Trends 0% 25% 50% 75% 100% 2022 2023 2024 '25 Within 30 30–120 days Over 120 Agency Funding Composition, % 0% 25% 50% 75% 100% 2022 2023 2024 '25 Swaps Swaptions Treasuries Agency Hedging Composition, % 0% 25% 50% 75% 100% 2022 2023 2024 '25 Pools TBA NLY Specified Pools and TBA Holdings, %

Appendix | Non-GAAP Reconciliations

Non-GAAP Reconciliations 20 Earnings Available for Distribution (“EAD”), a non-GAAP measure, is defined as the sum of (a) economic net interest income, (b) TBA dollar roll income, (c) net servicing income less realized amortization of MSR, (d) other income (loss) (excluding amortization of intangibles, non-EAD income allocated to equity method investments and other non-EAD components of other income (loss)), (e) general and administrative expenses (excluding transaction expenses and non-recurring items) and (f) income taxes (excluding the income tax effect of non-EAD income (loss) items) and excludes (g) the premium amortization adjustment ("PAA") representing the cumulative impact on prior periods, but not the current period, of quarter-over-quarter changes in estimated long-term prepayment speeds related to the Company’s Agency mortgage-backed securities. For additional definitions of non-GAAP measures, please refer to Annaly’s Second Quarter 2025 earnings release.
