ATLANTA, May 11, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Invesco Mortgage Capital Inc. (NYSE: IVR) today made the following announcements.

Common Stock Dividend

On May 9, 2020, the Company's board of directors approved the payment of the Company's previously declared dividend for the first quarter of 2020 of $0.50 per share of common stock (the "first quarter dividend"). The first quarter dividend will be paid on June 30, 2020 in a combination of cash and shares of the Company's common stock to stockholders of record as of May 21, 2020. Given the uncertain and rapidly changing financial markets resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company's board of directors has determined that the cash component of the first quarter dividend (other than cash paid in lieu of fractional shares) will not exceed 10% in the aggregate, or $0.05 per share, with the balance payable in shares of the Company's common stock. This will allow the Company to preserve capital and enhance the Company's financial flexibility.

In accordance with the provisions of the applicable IRS Revenue Procedures, stockholders will be asked to make an election to receive the first quarter dividend all in cash or all in shares. To the extent that stockholders elect to receive more than 10% of the aggregate payment in cash, the cash portion of the payment will be prorated. Stockholders who elect to receive the dividend in cash will receive a cash payment of at least $0.05 per share. Stockholders who elect to receive the dividend in Company common stock will only receive shares of Company common stock. Additionally, stockholders who do not make an election will receive 90% of the dividend in Company common stock and 10% of the dividend payment in cash. The number of shares issued as a result of the dividend will be calculated based upon the volume weighted average trading prices of the Company's common stock on the New York Stock Exchange on June 17, June 18 and June 19, 2020. Cash will be paid in lieu of fractional shares so that stockholders receive a whole number of shares of common stock.

An information letter and election form will be mailed to stockholders of record after the May 21, 2020 record date. The properly completed election form to receive cash or common shares must be received by Computershare Trust Company, N.A., the Company's transfer agent, prior to 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on June 16, 2020 (the "Election Deadline"). Registered stockholders with questions regarding the dividend election may call Computershare Trust Company, N.A. at (800) 756-8200. Stockholders who hold their shares through a bank, broker or nominee, and have questions regarding the dividend election should contact such bank, broker or nominee, who will also be responsible for distributing to such stockholders the information letter and election form and submitting the election form on behalf of such stockholders. Election forms are not available for download from the Company's website.

The board of directors will evaluate future quarterly dividends based on market conditions and other factors. The Company reserves the right to pay future dividends entirely in cash, in stock, or in a combination of cash and shares of common stock.

Preferred Stock Dividends

On May 9, 2020, the Company's board of directors determined that the Company would proceed with the payment of the previously declared cash dividends on the Company's 7.75% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock (the "Series A Preferred Stock"), 7.75% Fixed-to-Floating Series B Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock (the "Series B Preferred Stock"), and 7.50% Fixed-to-Floating Series C Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock (the "Series C Preferred Stock"). Payment of the Series A Preferred Stock cash dividend of $0.4844 per share that was declared on March 17, 2020 for stockholders of record as of April 1, 2020, will be made on May 22, 2020. Payment of the Series B Preferred Stock cash dividend of $0.4844 per share, and payment of the Series C Preferred Stock cash dividend of $0.46875 per share, each of which was declared on February 18, 2020 for stockholders of record as of March 5, 2020, will also be made on May 22, 2020.

On May 9, 2020, the Company's board of directors also declared the following cash dividends on its Series B and Series C Preferred Stock to its stockholders of record as of June 5, 2020: a Series B Preferred Stock dividend of $0.4844 per share payable on June 29, 2020, and a Series C Preferred Stock dividend of $0.46875 per share payable on June 29, 2020.

Portfolio Update

As previously reported, the Company has taken various actions to prudently manage the Company's portfolio through unprecedented market volatility resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. These actions include the sale of investments and the reduction of amounts due under the Company's repurchase agreement facilities and secured loans.

The Company has elected to provide the following updates through the close of business on May 7, 2020.

The Company has a total investment portfolio, excluding cash, of approximately $1.6 billion consisting of 93% commercial credit investments, 6% residential credit investments, and 1% agency mortgage-backed securities; approximately $534 million of the investment portfolio is unencumbered.
The Company has repaid all repurchase agreement debt and reduced the amount due under secured loans to a balance of $837 million.
The Company has a cash balance of $286 million, $52 million of which is restricted cash posted as collateral for the Company's secured loans.
The Company's book value per diluted common share* is estimated to be in the range of $2.25 to $3.25.

* Book value per diluted common share is calculated as approximately (i) total equity less the liquidation preference of Series A Preferred Stock ($140.0 million), Series B Preferred Stock ($155.0 million) and Series C Preferred Stock ($287.5 million), divided by (ii) total shares of common stock outstanding of 164,966,357 as of May 7, 2020.
