Invesco Mortgage Capital Inc. Reports First Quarter 2026 Financial Results

About this update from Invesco Mortgage Capital Inc

ATLANTA, April 30, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Invesco Mortgage Capital Inc. (NYSE: IVR) (the "Company") today announced financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2026. Update from Kevin Collins, Incoming Chief Executive Officer "During the first quarter of 2026, we operated in a more challenging market environment following the strong recovery in Agency MBS valuations experienced in the second half of 2025.

At quarter end, our $7.3 billion investment portfolio consisted of $5.2 billion Agency RMBS, $1.2 billion Agency TBA, and $0.9 billion Agency CMBS, and we maintained a sizable balance of unrestricted cash and unencumbered investments totaling $493.1 million. "Risk sentiment has improved entering the second quarter, supported by a decline in interest rate volatility. A further de‑escalation of the Middle East conflict would likely provide additional support for risk assets. From a supply‑and‑demand perspective, Agency RMBS net issuance is expected to remain manageable, the GSEs continue to provide steady demand and bank participation is likely to increase, supported in part by recent Basel capital framework proposals that improve the relative capital efficiency of high-quality mortgage assets.
