AGM.PR.H: A 6.50% Preferred IPO From Federal Agricultural Mortgage
AGM.PR.H offers a 6.50% yield, and its risk premium places it on the borderline of investment grade/high yield, reflecting Farmer Mac's GSE status. Farmer Mac's strong dividend history and adequate dividend coverage support preferred distribution safety, despite a debt-heavy capital structure. Compared to AGM's other preferreds, AGM.PR.H is less attractive due to lower appreciation potential; AGM-F and AGM-G offer better value at deeper discounts.
