Invesco Mortgage Capital Inc. Reports Third Quarter 2026 Financial Results
Atlanta - October 29, 2026 -- Invesco Mortgage Capital Inc. (NYSE: IVR) (the “Company”) today announced financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2026.
•Net loss per common share of $0.92 compared to net income of $0.34 in Q2 2026
•Earnings available for distribution per common share(1) of $0.47 compared to $0.50 in Q2 2026
•Monthly common stock dividends totaling $0.36 per share, unchanged from Q2 2026
•Book value per common share(2) of $6.74 compared to $8.03 as of June 30, 2026
•Economic return(3) of (11.6)% compared to 3.8% in Q2 2026
•Debt-to-equity ratio of 7.6x compared to 6.3x as of June 30, 2026
•Economic debt-to-equity ratio(1) of 8.3x compared to 7.5x as of June 30, 2026

Update from Kevin Collins, Chief Executive Officer
“Economic growth remained resilient during the third quarter, but financial conditions tightened as investors increasingly priced in additional Federal Reserve rate hikes. Short-term Treasury yields rose on expectations for further monetary policy tightening, while longer-term yields increased on stronger growth expectations and concerns over elevated fiscal deficits and Treasury supply. Interest rate volatility also rose from the subdued levels of the second quarter, weighing on investor risk appetite and contributing to materially wider Agency RMBS spreads and modestly wider Agency CMBS spreads.
“Against this backdrop, our portfolio generated negative returns relative to Treasuries, although the impact was partially offset by improvement in swap spreads. Book value declined by 16.1% to $6.74 at quarter end, and when combined with our monthly dividends, resulted in an economic return of (11.6)% for the quarter.
“At quarter end, our $8.0 billion investment portfolio consisted of $6.6 billion of Agency RMBS, $0.7 billion of Agency TBA, and $0.7 billion of Agency CMBS. Our economic debt-to-equity ratio was 8.3x, and we maintained a sizable balance of unrestricted cash and unencumbered investments totaling $401.3 million. During the latter part of the quarter, we reduced our Agency CMBS allocation and redeployed proceeds into Agency RMBS opportunities, as spread widening created increasingly attractive risk-adjusted return potential within the sector. Importantly, financing markets remained orderly despite elevated market volatility. Our strong liquidity position, diversified financing relationships, and disciplined risk-management framework continue to position the Company well during periods of market uncertainty.
“Our outlook for both Agency RMBS and Agency CMBS remains constructive. While uncertainty surrounding inflation, monetary policy, and geopolitical developments remains elevated, recent spread widening has enhanced the relative value and prospective return potential of both sectors. Looking ahead, we believe Agency RMBS is well positioned to benefit from increased participation by GSEs, banks, money managers, and other institutional investors as compelling risk-adjusted returns continue to attract capital. Agency CMBS also remains attractive, supported by elevated yields, stable cash flow characteristics, and meaningful diversification benefits.
“We believe an eventual de-escalation of geopolitical tensions in the Middle East, coupled with moderation in interest rate volatility, could provide an additional tailwind for our target assets. Until then, we remain focused on maintaining prudent leverage, ample liquidity, and strategic portfolio diversification. We believe our measured approach positions us well to navigate uncertainty while seeking to deliver attractive risk-adjusted returns and create long-term shareholder value.”

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The table below shows the non-GAAP financial measures the Company uses to analyze its operating results and the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measures. The Company believes these non-GAAP measures are useful to investors in assessing its performance as discussed further below.
Non-GAAP Financial MeasureMost Directly Comparable U.S. GAAP Measure
Earnings available for distribution (and by calculation, earnings available for distribution per common share)Net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders (and by calculation, basic earnings (loss) per common share)
Effective interest expense (and by calculation, effective cost of funds)Total interest expense (and by calculation, cost of funds)
Effective net interest income (and by calculation, effective interest rate margin)Net interest income (and by calculation, net interest rate margin)
Economic debt-to-equity ratioDebt-to-equity ratio
The non-GAAP financial measures used by the Company's management should be analyzed in conjunction with U.S. GAAP financial measures and should not be considered substitutes for U.S. GAAP financial measures. In addition, the non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled non-GAAP financial measures of its peer companies.
Earnings Available for Distribution
The Company's business objective is to provide attractive risk-adjusted returns to its stockholders, primarily through dividends and secondarily through capital appreciation. The Company uses earnings available for distribution as a measure of its investment portfolio’s ability to generate income for distribution to common stockholders and to evaluate its progress toward meeting this objective. The Company calculates earnings available for distribution as U.S. GAAP net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders adjusted for (gain) loss on investments, net; realized (gain) loss on derivative instruments, net; unrealized (gain) loss on derivative instruments, net; TBA dollar roll income and (gain) loss on repurchase and retirement of preferred stock. The Company may add and has added additional reconciling items to its earnings available for distribution calculation as appropriate.
By excluding the gains and losses discussed above, the Company believes the presentation of earnings available for distribution provides a consistent measure of operating performance that investors can use to evaluate its results over multiple reporting periods and, to a certain extent, compare to its peer companies. However, because not all of the Company's peer companies use identical operating performance measures, the Company's presentation of earnings available for distribution may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures used by its peer companies. The Company excludes the impact of gains and losses when calculating earnings available for distribution because when analyzed in conjunction with its U.S. GAAP results, earnings available for distribution provides additional detail of its investment portfolio’s earnings capacity. In addition, certain gains and losses represent one-time events.
Furthermore, gains and losses have not been accounted for consistently under U.S. GAAP. Under U.S. GAAP, certain gains and losses may be reflected in net income whereas other gains and losses may be reflected in other comprehensive income. For example, a portion of the Company's mortgage-backed securities were historically classified as available-for-sale securities, and changes in the valuation of these securities were recorded in other comprehensive income on its condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Company elected the fair value option for its mortgage-backed securities purchased on or after September 1, 2016, and changes in the valuation of these securities are recorded in other income (loss) in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss).
To maintain qualification as a REIT, U.S. federal income tax law generally requires that the Company distribute at least 90% of its REIT taxable income annually. Because the Company views earnings available for distribution as a consistent measure of its investment portfolio's ability to generate income for distribution to common stockholders, earnings available for distribution is one metric, but not the exclusive metric, that is used to determine the amount, if any, of dividends on common stock. However, earnings available for distribution should not be considered as an indication of the Company's taxable income, a guaranty of its ability to pay dividends or as a proxy for the amount of dividends it may pay, as earnings available for distribution excludes certain items that impact its cash needs.
Earnings available for distribution is an incomplete measure of the Company's financial performance and there are other factors that impact the achievement of the Company's business objective. The Company cautions that earnings available for distribution should not be considered as an alternative to net income (determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP), or as an indication of the Company's cash flow from operating activities (determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP), a measure of the Company's liquidity, or as an indication of amounts available to fund its cash needs.

(2)    A TBA dollar roll is a series of derivative transactions where TBAs with the same specified issuer, term and coupon but different settlement dates are simultaneously bought and sold. The TBA settling in the later month typically prices at a discount to the TBA settling in the earlier month. TBA dollar roll income represents the price differential between the TBA price for current month settlement compared to the TBA price for forward month settlement. The Company includes TBA dollar roll income in earnings available for distribution because it is the economic equivalent of interest income on the underlying Agency RMBS, less an implied financing cost, over the forward settlement period. TBA dollar roll income is a component of gain (loss) on derivative instruments, net on the Company's condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss).
(3)    Earnings available for distribution per common share is equal to earnings available for distribution divided by the basic weighted average number of common shares outstanding.

Effective Interest Expense/Effective Cost of Funds/Effective Net Interest Income/Effective Interest Rate Margin
The Company calculates effective interest expense (and by calculation, effective cost of funds) as U.S. GAAP total interest expense adjusted for contractual net interest income (expense) on its interest rate swaps that is recorded as gain (loss) on derivative instruments, net. The Company views its interest rate swaps as an economic hedge against increases in future market interest rates on its borrowings. The Company adds back the net payments or receipts on its interest rate swap agreements to its total U.S. GAAP interest expense because the Company uses interest rate swaps to add stability to interest expense.
The Company calculates effective net interest income (and by calculation, effective interest rate margin) as U.S. GAAP net interest income adjusted for contractual net interest income (expense) on its interest rate swaps that is recorded as gain (loss) on derivative instruments, net.
The Company believes the presentation of effective interest expense, effective cost of funds, effective net interest income and effective interest rate margin measures, when considered together with U.S. GAAP financial measures, provides information that is useful to investors in understanding the Company's borrowing costs and operating performance.
The following tables reconcile total interest expense to effective interest expense and cost of funds to effective cost of funds for the following periods:

Economic Debt-to-Equity Ratio
The following table shows the Company's debt-to-equity ratio and the Company's economic debt-to-equity ratio as of September 30, 2026 and June 30, 2026. The Company's debt-to-equity ratio is calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP and is the ratio of total debt to total stockholders' equity.
The Company presents an economic debt-to-equity ratio, a non-GAAP financial measure of leverage that considers the impact of the off-balance sheet financing of its investments in TBAs that are accounted for as derivative instruments under U.S. GAAP and the impact of receivables and payables for unsettled trades (if any). The Company includes these types of TBAs at implied cost basis in its measure of leverage because a forward contract to acquire Agency RMBS in the TBA market carries similar risks to Agency RMBS purchased in the cash market and funded with on-balance sheet liabilities. Similarly, a contract for the forward sale of Agency RMBS has substantially the same effect as selling the underlying Agency RMBS and reducing the Company's on-balance sheet funding commitments. The Company adjusts leverage for receivables and payables for unsettled trades (if any) because sales or purchases of MBS are recorded on the balance sheet on the trade date, while any corresponding changes to repurchase agreement borrowings are not recorded until the settlement date. The Company believes that presenting its economic debt-to-equity ratio, when considered together with its U.S. GAAP financial measure of debt-to-equity ratio, provides information that is useful to investors in understanding how management evaluates at-risk leverage and gives investors a comparable statistic to those of other mortgage REITs who present a similar non-GAAP measure of leverage.
