The company’s primary revenue drivers are interest income generated from its mortgage loan portfolio and securitization activities. Angel Oak Mortgage REIT is externally managed by an affiliate of Angel Oak Companies, a vertically integrated real estate and asset management platform. Its strategic positioning centers on leveraging proprietary loan sourcing, underwriting expertise, and securitization capabilities to access higher-yielding mortgage assets. Angel Oak Mortgage REIT, Inc. was formed in 2018 and completed its initial public offering in 2019, evolving alongside the growth of the non-QM mortgage market following post-financial-crisis regulatory changes.
