  • February 2022 Monthly Dividend of $0.055 Per Share of Common Stock
  • RMBS Portfolio Characteristics as of January 31, 2022
  • Next Dividend Announcement Expected March 16, 2022

Orchid Island Capital, Inc. (the “Company”) (NYSE: ORC) announced today that the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) declared a monthly cash dividend for the month of February 2022. The dividend of $0.055 per share will be paid March 29, 2022, to holders of record of the Company’s common stock on February 28, 2022, with an ex-dividend date of February 25, 2022. The Company plans on announcing its next common stock dividend on March 16, 2022.

The Company intends to make regular monthly cash distributions to its holders of common stock.

The Company will be subject to income tax on taxable income that is not distributed and to an excise tax to the extent that a certain percentage of its taxable income is not distributed by specified dates. The Company has not established a minimum distribution payment level and is not assured of its ability to make distributions to stockholders in the future.

As of February 16, 2022, January 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had 176,993,049 shares of common stock outstanding.
