How TWO compares in its sector
- return on equitybottom 10% 559 covered Financials peers, as of 2026-09-02
- indicated dividend yieldtop 10% 468 covered Financials peers, as of 2026-09-02
Position among covered Financials companies that report each metric (minimum 5 peers). A relative position within our covered catalog — not a valuation, quality, or investment judgment. A higher percentile is simply a higher value (for P/E, more expensive on earnings — never "better"). Informational only.
Dividend coverage (FY2025)
Exceeded at least one reported measure. In FY2025, TWO's dividend exceeded at least one reported measure of what it earned or generated (operating-cash-flow payout 192%). A payout above 100% in one year is not necessarily unsustainable, but it is not fully covered by that measure.
- Earnings payoutnot assessable earnings were not positive that year
- Operating-cash-flow payout192% dividends / operating cash flow — capital spending was not reported, so this does not subtract it
Coverage derived from reported SEC EDGAR XBRL figures for FY2025 (dividends paid vs. net income and free cash flow, same fiscal year). This describes PAST coverage for one fiscal year — it does not predict whether a dividend will be maintained, raised, or cut, and a one-year payout ratio can be distorted by non-recurring items.

Only open-market purchases (SEC code P) and sales (code S) are counted here. Option exercises, vesting/awards, gifts, and shares withheld for taxes are excluded — they are compensation or mechanical, not open-market conviction. Sales may be planned and non-discretionary (e.g. a Rule 10b5-1 plan) and are not necessarily bearish; open-market buying is not a recommendation to buy. Informational only — not financial advice.
Short interest (FINRA)
TWO had 2,920,018 shares of reported short interest as of the 2026-08-14 FINRA settlement date (delayed, bi-monthly; not real-time).
TWO had 2.78% of its shares outstanding sold short as of the 2026-08-14 FINRA settlement date (percent of FLOAT would be higher — float is not disclosed in the source). FINRA reported 1 days to cover at the same settlement.
- Reported short interest (shares) 2,920,018
- Short interest (% of shares outstanding) 2.78%
- Prior settlement (shares) 4,343,914
- Reported change -32.78%
- Days to cover (reported) 1
Reported to FINRA as of the 2026-08-14 settlement date. Short interest is reported to FINRA and published on a delayed, bi-monthly schedule (as of a settlement date, disseminated roughly eight business days later) — it is NOT real-time, does not cover every venue or all US trading, and is not a short-squeeze prediction or investment advice. Days-to-cover is the value FINRA reports; percent of float is not shown because the source file carries no share-count denominator — where a percent appears it is of shares OUTSTANDING, the larger base, and is therefore a floor on percent of float.
