  • Next Dividend Announcement Expected June 14, 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 May 2022. The dividend of $0.045 per share will be paid June 28, 2022, to holders of record of the Company’s common stock on May 31, 2022, with an ex-dividend date of May 27, 2022.

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 May 11, 2022, April 30, 2022 and March 31, 2022, the Company had 177,117,186 shares of common stock outstanding.
