Invesco Mortgage Capital Inc. Reports Third Quarter 2024 Financial Results

ATLANTA, Nov. 5, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Invesco Mortgage Capital Inc. (NYSE:IVR) (the "Company") today announced financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2024.

Net income per common share of $0.63 compared to net loss of $0.38 in Q2 2024

Earnings available for distribution per common share(1) of $0.68 compared to $0.86 in Q2 2024

Common stock dividend of $0.40 per common share, unchanged from Q2 2024

Book value per common share(2) of $9.37 compared to $9.27 as of June 30, 2024

Economic return(3) of 5.4% compared to (4.1)% in Q2 2024

Update from John Anzalone, Chief Executive Officer

"Agency mortgage valuations improved during the third quarter as interest rate volatility declined and the yield curve steepened in connection with the Federal Reserve's decision to begin easing monetary policy. In this macroeconomic environment, our higher coupon Agency RMBS investments outperformed, contributing to a 1.1% increase in book value per common share to $9.37. Combined with our $0.40 common stock dividend, this resulted in an economic return of 5.4% for the quarter. As of October 31, 2024, our book value per common share is estimated to be between $8.42 and $8.76.(4)

"Our debt-to-equity ratio ended the third quarter at 6.1x, up from 5.6x as of June 30th, while our economic debt-to-equity ratio(1) increased from 5.9x to 6.1x quarter over quarter. As of the end of the quarter, our $5.9 billion investment portfolio primarily consisted of $5.2 billion Agency RMBS and $0.7 billion Agency CMBS, and we continued to maintain a sizeable balance of unrestricted cash and unencumbered investments totaling $521 million.

"For the quarter, earnings available for distribution per common share was $0.68, compared to $0.86 in the second quarter. This decrease reflects a reduction in our effective net interest income(1) related to changes in the size and composition of our hedging portfolio.

"We recently announced the redemption of our Series B Preferred shares, which will help optimize our capital structure and reduce our dividend obligations going forward.

"The anticipated easing of monetary policy should lead to a steeper yield curve and lower interest rate volatility in the coming months, creating a favorable environment for Agency RMBS investments. However, risks including accelerating inflation, fiscal policy expectations and short-term funding pressures into year end could reduce investor demand for the sector in the near-term. Despite these risks, we are constructive on the sector, as Agency mortgage performance stands to benefit from normalization of monetary policy given attractive valuations and supportive supply and demand technicals."

(1) Earnings available for distribution (and by calculation, earnings available for distribution per common share), economic debt-to-equity ratio and effective net interest income are non-Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP") financial measures. Refer to the section entitled "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" for important disclosures and reconciliations to the most comparable U.S. GAAP measures.

(2) Book value per common share as of September 30, 2024 and June 30, 2024 is calculated as total stockholders' equity less the liquidation preference of the Company's Series B Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock ($106.2 million and $181.9 million as of September 30, 2024, respectively, and $106.2 million and $183.6 million as of June 30, 2024, respectively), divided by total common shares outstanding.

(3) Economic return for the quarter ended September 30, 2024 is defined as the change in book value per common share from June 30, 2024 to September 30, 2024 of $0.10; plus dividends declared of $0.40 per common share; divided by the June 30, 2024 book value per common share of $9.27. Economic return for the quarter ended June 30, 2024 is defined as the change in book value per common share from March 31, 2024 to June 30, 2024 of ($0.81); plus dividends declared of $0.40 per common share; divided by the March 31, 2024 book value per common share of $10.08.

(4) Book value per common share as of October 31, 2024 is adjusted to exclude a pro rata portion of the current quarter's common stock dividend (which for purposes of this calculation is assumed to be the same as the previous quarter) and is calculated as total stockholders' equity less the liquidation preference of the Company's Series B Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock ($106.2 million and $181.2 million as of October 31, 2024, respectively), divided by total common shares outstanding of 60.7 million.
