**FHLB Des Moines Announces 2022 Financial Results** 

The Federal Home Loan Bank of Des Moines (the Bank) announced today preliminary unaudited financial results and declared a dividend for the fourth quarter of 2022. The Board of Directors approved a fourth quarter 2022 dividend at an annualized rate of 7.75 percent on activity-based stock, an increase of 0.50 percent from the prior quarter, and 3.00 percent on membership stock, unchanged from the prior quarter. Dividend payments totaling $96 million are expected to be paid on February 17, 2023.

The increased dividend rate on activity-based stock is a result of changes in interest rates and business activity. This rate reflects the Bank's philosophy to pay a consistent dividend equal to or greater than the current market rate for a highly-rated investment, and at a rate that the Board believes is sustainable under current and projected earnings to maintain an appropriate level of capital and retained earnings. Future dividends are at the discretion of the Bank's Board of Directors and may be impacted by economic and market conditions.

**Fourth Quarter 2022 Financial Highlights**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Net income totaled $146 million, an increase of $100 million from the same period last year.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Net interest income totaled $262 million, an increase of $171 million from the same period last year.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Mortgage loans totaled $8.3 billion, and the Bank purchased $319 million of loans from 127 members during the fourth quarter.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The Bank accrued $16 million during the quarter for use in its Affordable Housing Program (AHP).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The Bank recorded a $3 million voluntary contribution during the quarter to its Member Impact Fund, a discretionary non-AHP program intended to support affordable housing and community development in states and U.S. territories within the Bank's district that have not received AHP funds. These funds will be disbursed in 2023.

**2022 Financial Highlights**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**•** Net income totaled $430 million, an increase of $224 million from the prior year.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Net interest income totaled $683 million, an increase of $302 million from the prior year.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Assets totaled $164.2 billion, an increase of $78.3 billion from December 31, 2021.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Advances totaled $111.2 billion, an increase of $67.1 billion from December 31, 2021, and were outstanding to 726 members, housing associates, and former members.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Investments totaled $43.4 billion, an increase of $9.9 billion from December 31, 2021.

**2022 Financial Results Discussion**

***Net Income -*** The Bank recorded net income of $430 million in 2022 compared to $206 million in 2021.

***Net Interest Income -*** The Bank recorded net interest income of $683 million in 2022, an increase of $302 million when compared to the prior year, primarily driven by higher interest rates, which improved earnings on invested capital, and growth in advance balances.

***Other Income (Loss) -*** The Bank recorded other loss of $40 million, a decrease of $44 million when compared to the prior year primarily driven by changes in the fair value of the Bank's trading securities, fair value option instruments, and economic derivatives due to rising interest rates, as well as changes in credit spreads on the Bank's fixed rate trading securities.

------

***Assets -*** The Bank's total assets increased to $164.2 billion at December 31, 2022, from $85.9 billion at December 31, 2021, driven primarily by an increase in advances and investments. Advances increased $67.1 billion due mainly to an increase in borrowings by large depository institution members. Investments increased $9.9 billion driven by increased money market investments and the purchase of U.S. Treasury obligations and agency MBS.

***Capital -*** Total capital increased to $8.8 billion at December 31, 2022 from $5.8 billion at December 31, 2021, primarily due to an increase in activity-based capital stock resulting from an increase in advance balances.
