AI brief of an SEC Form 8-K · Adamas Trust (ADAM)

Adamas Trust posts $1.89 per share GAAP loss in Q3 as book value falls 21.9%

Mixed Impact 4 of 5 earnings

Adamas Trust reported a third-quarter 2026 GAAP net loss attributable to the company of $159.1 million, or $1.89 per basic share, as book value per share fell 21.9% to $7.93, which management said was primarily driven by lower valuations of Agency mortgage securities amid rising rates and volatility. Earnings available for distribution rose 25% year over year to $0.30 per share, and the company declared a $0.30 common dividend, up 11.1% from the prior quarter. The mixed results matter to shareholders because the GAAP loss and falling book value weigh against higher distributable earnings and a larger dividend.
