Total debt / Total capitalization | 17.7 | % | 23.1 | % | 23.4 | % | 23.5 | % | 23.4 | % | |||||||||
(a) | Total capitalization excluding AOCI, a non-GAAP financial measure, is based on stockholders' equity excluding the effect of AOCI. |
(b) | Total common stockholders’ equity and book value per common share excluding AOCI, non-GAAP financial measures, are based on common stockholders’ equity excluding the effect of AOCI. Since AOCI fluctuates from quarter to quarter due to unrealized changes in the fair value of available for sale securities, we believe these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful supplemental information. Total common stockholders' equity and total common stockholder's equity excluding AOCI, non-GAAP financial measures, exclude equity available to preferred stockholders. |
(c) | Equity available to preferred stockholders is equal to the redemption value of outstanding preferred stock plus share dividends declared but not yet issued. |
(d) | Book value per common share including and excluding AOCI is calculated as total common stockholders’ equity and total common stockholders’ equity excluding AOCI divided by the total number of shares of common stock outstanding. |
(e) | Debt-to-capital ratios are computed using total capitalization excluding AOCI. |
