Saxon Capital, Inc. ("Saxon" or the "Company") (NYSE: SAX), a
residential mortgage lending and servicing real estate investment
trust (REIT), today announced its financial results for the first
quarter of 2006. Financial and Operational Highlights: -- First
quarter 2006 net income of $26.4 million, or $0.52 per share
diluted. -- Net mortgage loan portfolio at March 31, 2006 was $6.5
billion, an increase of 7% from March 31, 2005 and an increase of
2% from December 31, 2005. -- First quarter 2006 mortgage loan
production was $746.3 million, a decrease of 7% from the first
quarter of 2005 and a decrease of 18% from the fourth quarter of
2005. -- First quarter 2006 net cost to produce was 2.46%, compared
to 3.27% for the first quarter of 2005 and 2.45% for the fourth
quarter of 2005. -- First quarter 2006 cost to service was 17 basis
points, compared to 20 basis points for the first quarter of 2005
and 15 basis points for the fourth quarter of 2005. "Our first
quarter results reflect the ever competitive and evolving
marketplace, and Saxon's continued strategy of profitably growing
our portfolio, while continuing to strive to improve our
operational efficiencies. While first quarter production volume
reflected a traditional seasonal decline, our net cost to produce
remained flat from the prior quarter. These progressive and
continued improvements in operational efficiencies reflect our
strategic plan of enhancing the economics and scalability of our
origination and servicing platform," said Michael L. Sawyer, Chief
Executive Officer of Saxon. Financial Results This press release
reports Saxon's financial results under generally accepted
accounting principles ("GAAP"). Also presented are non-GAAP
financial measures within the meaning of Regulation G promulgated
by the Securities and Exchange Commission that management believes
provide useful information to investors regarding Saxon's financial
performance. The non-GAAP measures presented include core net
income, core earnings per share diluted, core net interest income
and margin, total net cost to produce, cost to service,
securitization net losses on liquidated loans, and a Company
defined working capital calculation. Additional information about
each of these non-GAAP financial measures, including a definition
and the reason management believes its presentation provides useful
information and a reconciliation of each of these non-GAAP
financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measure is
provided in Schedule B of this press release. The presentation of
these non-GAAP financial measures is not to be considered in
isolation or as a substitute for the Company's financial results
prepared in accordance with GAAP. Net Income and Earnings Per Share
Saxon reported net income for the first quarter of 2006 of $26.4
million, or $0.52 per share diluted, compared to $54.0 million, or
$1.07 per share diluted for the first quarter of 2005, and $17.8
million, or $0.35 per share diluted for the fourth quarter of 2005.
Core Net Income and Earnings Per Share Core net income for the
first quarter of 2006 was $21.4 million, or $0.42 per share
diluted, compared to $44.9 million, or $0.89 per share diluted for
the first quarter of 2005, and $19.5 million, or $0.38 per share
diluted for the fourth quarter of 2005. Core net income excludes
the mark to market gains or losses recognized on derivative
instruments. See Schedule B of this press release for a
reconciliation of core net income to net income. Net Interest
Income and Margin Net interest income was $35.5 million for the
first quarter of 2006, compared to $57.4 million for the first
quarter of 2005 and $40.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2005.
Net interest margin was 2.2% for the first quarter of 2006,
compared to 3.8% for the first quarter of 2005 and 2.6% for the
fourth quarter of 2005. Net interest margin is calculated as net
interest income divided by average interest-earning assets. Average
interest-earning assets are calculated using a daily average
balance over the time period indicated. Throughout the first
quarter of 2006, interest expense increased due to the 197 basis
point rise in 1-month LIBOR from March 31, 2005 to March 31, 2006
and the 44 basis point increase from December 31, 2005 to March 31,
2006. In addition, the Company also experienced slower prepayment
speeds during the first quarter of 2006 compared to the fourth
quarter of 2005, which reduced prepayment penalty income.
Prepayment speeds for the first quarter of 2006 compared to the
first quarter of 2005 were relatively flat; however, prepayment
income for the first quarter of 2006 was lower due to a decline in
the number of loans paying off in the portfolio that contain
prepayment penalty features. Net interest income and margin do not
include the effect of Saxon's economic hedge of its cost of
financing. Core Net Interest Income and Margin Core net interest
income was $41.1 million for the first quarter of 2006, compared to
$69.6 million for the first quarter of 2005 and $48.7 million for
the fourth quarter of 2005. Core net interest margin was 2.6% for
the first quarter of 2006 compared to 4.6% for the first quarter of
2005 and 3.1% for the fourth quarter of 2005. Core net interest
income is net interest income adjusted to include the net cash
settlements received or paid on derivative instruments. Core net
interest margin is calculated as core net interest income divided
by average interest-earning assets. Average interest-earning assets
are calculated using a daily average balance over the time period
indicated. See Schedule B for a reconciliation of core net interest
income to net interest income, and core net interest margin to net
interest margin. Core net interest income and margin were affected
by the same factors as net interest income and margin, partially
offset by the net cash settlement on the derivative instruments.
Provision for Mortgage Loan Losses Provision for mortgage loan
losses was $0.6 million for the first quarter of 2006, compared to
$2.3 million for the first quarter of 2005 and $11.5 million for
the fourth quarter of 2005. The changes in provision are impacted
by the timing of charges-offs and by the seasonality of delinquency
levels which are typically lower in the first quarter of the year.
The first quarter of 2006 was an unusually strong collection period
for the Company. It is expected that delinquencies will increase to
a more normalized level in the second quarter of 2006. Servicing
income, net Servicing income, net of amortization and impairment,
was $19.6 million for the first quarter of 2006, compared to $13.6
million for the first quarter of 2005 and $21.4 million for the
fourth quarter of 2005. Saxon's third party servicing portfolio was
$20.3 billion at March 31, 2006, an increase of 38% from March 31,
2005, and an increase of 9% from December 31, 2005. During the
first quarter of 2006, the Company purchased mortgage servicing
rights from third parties relating to approximately $3.8 billion in
principal balances of mortgage loans, compared to $3.1 billion in
principal balances of mortgage loans in the first quarter of 2005.
The Company's average purchase price for the mortgage servicing
rights purchased in the first quarter of 2006 was 80 basis points,
compared to 71 basis points for the first quarter of 2005.
Operating Expenses Total operating expenses, which include payroll
and related expenses, general and administrative expense,
depreciation and other expenses, were $34.5 million for the first
quarter of 2006, compared to $41.0 million for the first quarter of
2005 and $38.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2005. Total
operating expenses decreased for the first quarter of 2006 compared
to both the first quarter and fourth quarter of 2005 primarily due
to a decrease in salary and related expenses, and general and
administrative expenses across the production and shared services
segments. These decreases were offset by an increase in the
servicing segment operating expenses that relate to the growth in
the servicing portfolio. Cost to Service and Total Net Cost to
Produce Cost to service was 17 basis points for the first quarter
of 2006, compared to 20 basis points for the first quarter of 2005,
and 15 basis points cost in the fourth quarter of 2005. Total net
cost to produce was 2.46% of total loan production for the first
quarter of 2006, compared to 3.27% for the first quarter of 2005
and 2.45% for the fourth quarter of 2005. Total net cost to produce
for the first quarter of 2006 decreased from the first quarter of
2005 due to the Company's continued focus on cost management, and
remained flat from the fourth quarter of 2005 due to lower
production volume. -0- *T Portfolio Performance The following table

and performing loans in which the related borrower is in
bankruptcy. Amounts included for contractually current bankruptcies
for the owned portfolio are: $30.6 million as of March 31, 2006,
$43.3 million as of December 31, 2005; and $17.6 million as of
March 31, 2005. (2) When a loan is deemed to be uncollectible and
the property is foreclosed, it is transferred to REO at net
realizable value and periodically evaluated for additional
impairments. Net realizable value is defined as the property's fair
value less estimated costs to sell. Costs of holding this real
estate and related gains and losses on disposition are credited or
charged to operations as incurred; and therefore, are not included
as part of our allowance for loan and interest losses. (3)
Seriously delinquent is defined as loans that are 60 or more days
delinquent, foreclosed, REO, or held by a borrower who has declared
bankruptcy and is 60 or more days contractually delinquent. (4)
Charge-offs represent the losses recognized in our financial
statements in accordance with GAAP. Quarter ended percentages are
annualized. See reconciliation of securitization net losses on
liquidated loans to charge-offs in Schedule B. *T Loan Production
Mortgage loan production was $746.3 million for the first quarter
of 2006, a decrease of 7% compared to the first quarter of 2005,
and a decrease of 18% from the fourth quarter of 2005. The weighted
average coupon on the Company's production in the first quarter of
2006 was 8.4%, compared to 7.2% for the first quarter of 2005 and
7.9% for the fourth quarter of 2005. Saxon's wholesale mortgage
loan production was $363.6 million during the first quarter of
2006, an increase of 6% from the first quarter of 2005, and a
decrease of 6% from the fourth quarter of 2005. Saxon's retail
mortgage loan production was $138.5 million during the first
quarter of 2006, a decrease of 31% from the first quarter of 2005,
and a decrease of 15% from the fourth quarter of 2005. Saxon's
correspondent flow mortgage loan production was $226.0 million
during the first quarter of 2006, an increase of 1% from the first
quarter of 2005, and a decrease of 21% from the fourth quarter of
2005. Saxon's correspondent bulk mortgage loan production was $18.1
million during the first quarter of 2006, a decrease of 52% from
the first quarter of 2005, and a decrease of 74% from the fourth
quarter of 2005. Liquidity At March 31, 2006, Saxon had $1.7
billion in committed facilities and $109.4 million in working
capital, compared to $1.7 billion in committed facilities and
$208.6 million in working capital at March 31, 2005. It is common
business practice to define working capital as current assets less
current liabilities. However, the Company does not have a
classified balance sheet and therefore calculates working capital
using an internally defined formula, which is generally calculated
as unrestricted cash and investments as well as unencumbered assets
that can be pledged against existing committed facilities and
converted to cash in five days or less. Management believes that
this working capital calculation provides a better indication of
the Company's liquidity available to conduct business at the time
of calculation. A reconciliation between the Company's working
capital calculation and the common definition of working capital is
presented in Schedule B. -0- *T REIT Taxable Income The following
table is a reconciliation of GAAP net income to estimated REIT
taxable net income for the three months ended March 31, 2006: For
the three months ended March 31, 2006 ----------------------- ($ in
thousands) Consolidated GAAP income before taxes $29,311 Estimated
tax adjustments: Plus: Provision for losses - REIT portfolio 3,142
Miscellaneous 930 Less: Taxable REIT subsidiary pre-tax net income
(loss) 765 Elimination of intercompany pre-tax net income (loss)
4,909 Hedging income (1) 2,993 Securitized loan adjustments for tax
987 ------- Estimated Qualified REIT taxable income $23,729 =======
(1) Although the Company has eliminated the use of hedge accounting
under SFAS No. 133 for financial reporting purposes, it continues
to account for certain of its derivative instruments as hedges for
tax purposes. *T The estimated REIT taxable income for the quarter
ended March 31, 2006 set forth in the table above is an estimate
only and is subject to change until the Company files its 2006 REIT
federal tax returns. To maintain its status as a REIT, Saxon is
required to distribute at least 90% of its REIT taxable income each
year to its shareholders. The calculation of REIT taxable income,
under federal tax law, differs in certain respects, from the
calculation of consolidated net income pursuant to GAAP. Saxon
expects that consolidated GAAP net income may differ from REIT
taxable income for many reasons, including, but not limited to, the
following: -- the provision for loan loss expense recognized for
GAAP purposes is based upon the estimate of probable loan losses
inherent in the Company's existing portfolio of loans held for
investment, for which the Company has not yet recorded a
charge-off, whereas tax accounting rules allow a deduction for loan
losses only in the period when a charge-off occurs; -- there are
several differences between GAAP and tax methodologies for
capitalization of mortgage loan origination expenses; -- there are
differences between GAAP and tax related to the timing of
recognition of income (loss) from derivative instruments; and --
income of a taxable REIT subsidiary is generally included in the
REIT's earnings for consolidated GAAP purposes, but is not
recognized in REIT taxable income. Management believes that the
presentation of estimated REIT taxable income provides useful
information to investors regarding the Company's estimated annual
distributions to its investors. The presentation of REIT taxable
income is not to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for
financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP. Recent
Developments On May 4, 2006, the Company closed its private
offering of $150 million of senior notes due 2014. The notes bear
interest at a fixed rate of 12% per annum, beginning May 4, 2006.
The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the proposed
offering for general corporate purposes, principally the
acquisition of additional third-party mortgage servicing rights and
whole loans in bulk. On April 28, 2006, the Company paid its first
quarter 2006 cash dividend of $0.50 per share of common stock,
which was declared on March 24, 2006 and payable to shareholders of
record on April 3, 2006. On May 2, 2006, the Company closed a
$494.7 million asset-backed securitization. Conference Call Saxon

cost to service are non-GAAP financial measures of Saxon's earnings
within the meaning of Regulation G promulgated by the Securities
and Exchange Commission. Core net income is net income less the
mark to market gains or losses on derivative instruments. Core
earnings per share diluted is core net income divided by the
weighted average diluted number of shares outstanding during the
period. Core net interest income is net interest income adjusted to
include net cash settlements received or paid on derivative
instruments. Core net interest income margin is core net interest
income divided by average interest earning assets. Average interest
earning assets are calculated using a daily average balance over
the time period indicated. Securitization net losses on liquidated
loans are losses recorded by the securitization trust at the time a
REO loan is sold. GAAP requires losses to be recognized immediately
upon a loan being transferred to REO. Company Defined Working
Capital is generally calculated as unrestricted cash and
investments as well as unencumbered assets that can be pledged
against existing committed facilities and converted to cash in five
days or less. Total net cost to produce is total production
expenses, which include payroll and related expense and general and
administrative expense attributable to our production segment, plus
deferred capitalized costs and premiums paid, net of fees
collected, divided by loan production. Capitalized expenses are
origination expenses that are capitalized pursuant to FASB 91. Fees
collected and premium are capitalized and recorded on balance sheet
as components of net mortgage loan portfolio. Cost to service is
total servicing related expenses, which include payroll and related
expenses and general and administrative expenses, divided by the
daily weighted average of the total servicing portfolio. Management
believes the core financial measures are useful because they
include the current period effects of Saxon's economic hedging
program but exclude the mark to market derivative value changes.
Saxon uses interest rate swaps, caps, futures and option agreements
to create economic hedges of the variable rate debt it issues to
finance its mortgage loan portfolio. Changes in the fair value of
these derivatives, which reflect the potential future cash
settlements over the remaining lives of the agreements according to
the market's changing projections of interest rates, are recognized
in the line item "Derivative gains" on the consolidated statements
of operations. This single line item includes both the actual cash
settlements related to the derivatives that occurred during the
period and recognition of the changes in the fair value of the
agreements over the period. The actual cash settlements include
regular monthly payments or receipts under the terms of the
agreements and amounts paid or received to terminate the agreements
prior to maturity. The amounts of net cash settlements and changes
in derivative value that were included in the line item "Derivative
gains" were: Three Months Ended

Securitization Net Losses on Liquidated Loans Management believes
that it is meaningful to show securitization net losses on
liquidated loans and charge-offs as measures of losses since it is
a widely accepted industry practice to evaluate securitization net
losses on liquidated loans and the information is provided on a
monthly basis to the investors in each securitization. GAAP
requires losses to be recognized immediately upon a loan being
transferred to REO, whereas securitization net losses on liquidated
loans do not recognize a loss on REO until the loan is sold. This
causes a timing difference between charge-offs and securitization
net losses on liquidated loans. In addition, securitization net
losses on liquidated loans exclude losses resulting from delinquent
loan sales. Three Months Ended
