Our GAAP book value per diluted common share was $9.91 at March31, 2017. Adjusting for the common and preferred stock dividends we announced on June15, 2017, we estimate that there will be no meaningful change in our book value as of June30, 2017. Due to our controlling ownership interest in Granite Point, we will consolidate Granite Point on our GAAP financial statements until such time as the shares we received are distributed to our stockholders. During the consolidation period, we will reflect a noncontrolling interest on our financial statements for the portion of equity and net income not attributable to us.
