First Quarter 2019 Earnings Summary
Comprehensive income to common shareholders for the first quarter of 2019 of $31.2 million consisted of a net loss to common shareholders of $(55.3) million and other comprehensive income of $86.5 million compared to a comprehensive loss to common shareholders for the fourth quarter of 2018 of $(31.4) million, which consisted of a net loss to common shareholders of $(81.5) million and other comprehensive income of $50.1 million. The Company's net loss to common shareholders for the first quarter of 2019 primarily consisted of:
▪net interest income of $13.7 million
▪net loss on derivative instruments of $(61.7) million
▪general and administrative expenses of $(4.0) million, and
▪preferred stock dividends of $(3.1) million.
Net interest income increased during the first quarter of 2019 compared to the prior quarter due to a larger and higher yielding portfolio of interest earning assets, which offset the Company's increased interest expense resulting from a higher average balance of repurchase agreement borrowings and higher borrowing rates. Like the prior quarter, net loss on derivative instruments for the first quarter of 2019 was primarily the result of a net loss in fair value of the Company's interest rate swaps as interest rates on the 2-10 year portion of the swap curve declined for the second consecutive quarter. Partially offsetting the loss in fair value of interest rate swaps, the Company recorded other comprehensive income of $86.5 million, which resulted primarily from the increase in fair value of MBS due to tighter credit spreads and declining longer-term interest rates during the first quarter of 2019.
Core net operating income to common shareholders, a non-GAAP measure, increased to $12.1 million for the first quarter of 2019 versus $10.9 million for the fourth quarter of 2018 due to the larger and higher yielding portfolio and higher net periodic interest benefit from the Company's interest rate swaps, which offset the higher interest expense on repurchase agreement borrowings and lower TBA drop income. The Company reduced its volume of TBA dollar roll transactions during the first quarter of 2019 as TBA net interest spreads declined. On a per share basis, core net operating income to common shareholders was unchanged compared to the fourth quarter of 2018 as the Company's weighted average shares outstanding increased due to additional shares issued during the first quarter of 2019. Please refer to "Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures" below for additional important information about non-GAAP measures.
Book Value Per Common Share
Book value per common share increased to $6.24 at March 31, 2019 from $6.02 at December 31, 2018. This increase of $0.22 per common share and the first quarter dividend of $0.18 per common share resulted in a quarterly total economic return on book value per common share of 6.6%, The increase in book value was driven by the increase in fair value of the Company's MBS, net of the decline in fair value of its interest rate hedges. The increase in the Company's common shares outstanding, which resulted primarily from its secondary offering that closed at the end of January 2019, impacted book value per common share by $(0.05).

(4) | Represents a non-GAAP measure.

The Company's net interest spread declined 9 basis points for the first quarter of 2019 compared to the fourth quarter of 2018 as the favorable impact from a larger and higher yielding MBS portfolio was insufficient to offset the 18 basis point increase in the Company's cost of financing resulting from higher short-term interest rates during the first quarter of 2019. This increase in cost of financing also contributed to the decline of 5 basis points in adjusted net interest spread for the first quarter of 2019 compared to the prior quarter. In addition, the Company's TBA contracts contributed to the decline in adjusted net interest spread due to higher implied average funding costs for TBA dollar roll transactions as higher expected prepayment speeds

impacted pricing of TBA contracts. Partially offsetting the higher financing costs and lower TBA net spread, the Company's net periodic interest benefit from interest rate swaps increased 14 basis points for the first quarter of 2019 compared to the prior quarter.

The Company purchased these assets using proceeds from its common and preferred equity issuances as well as additional repurchase agreement borrowings, which increased leverage including TBA dollar roll positions to 8.5x shareholder's equity compared to 8.0x at December 31, 2018.
Hedging Summary
During the first quarter of 2019, the Company terminated interest rate swaps with a notional balance of $875.0 million, realizing a loss of $(6.8) million, and added interest rate swaps with a notional balance of $1.5 billion at a weighted average pay-fixed rate of 2.54%.

Company Description
Dynex Capital, Inc. is an internally managed real estate investment trust, or REIT, which invests in mortgage assets on a leveraged basis. The Company invests in Agency and non-Agency RMBS, CMBS, and CMBS IO. Additional information about Dynex Capital, Inc. is available at www.dynexcapital.com.
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to the Company's operating results presented in accordance with GAAP, this release includes certain non-GAAP financial measures including core net operating income to common shareholders (including per common share), adjusted interest expense, adjusted net interest income and the related metrics adjusted cost of funds and adjusted net interest spread. Because these measures are used in the Company's internal analysis of financial and operating performance, management believes that they provide greater transparency to our investors of management's view of our economic performance. Management also believes the presentation of these measures, when analyzed in conjunction with the Company's GAAP operating results, allows investors to more effectively evaluate and compare the performance of the Company to that of its peers, although the Company's presentation of its non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to other similarly-titled measures of other companies. Schedules

reconciling core net operating income to common shareholders, adjusted interest expense, and adjusted net interest income to GAAP financial measures are provided as a supplement to this release.
Management views core net operating income to common shareholders as an estimate of the Company's financial performance excluding changes in fair value of its investments and derivatives. In addition to the non-GAAP reconciliation set forth in the supplement to this release, which derives core net operating income to common shareholders from GAAP net income to common shareholders as the nearest GAAP equivalent measure, core net operating income to common shareholders can also be determined by adjusting net interest income to include interest rate swap periodic interest benefit (cost), drop income on TBA dollar roll transactions, general and administrative expenses, and preferred dividends. Management includes drop income, which is included in "gain (loss) on derivatives instruments, net" on the Company's consolidated statements of comprehensive income, in core net operating income and in adjusted net interest income because TBA dollar roll positions are viewed by management as economically equivalent to holding and financing Agency RMBS using short-term repurchase agreements. Management also includes periodic interest benefit (cost) from its interest rate swaps, which are also included in "gain (loss) on derivatives instruments, net", in adjusted net interest expense, and in adjusted net interest income because interest rate swaps are used by the Company to economically hedge the impact of changing interest rates on its borrowing costs from repurchase agreements, and including periodic interest benefit (cost) from interest rate swaps is a helpful indicator of the Company’s total cost of financing in addition to GAAP interest expense. However, these non-GAAP measures do not provide a full perspective on our results of operations, and therefore, their usefulness is limited. For example, these non-GAAP measures do not include gains or losses from available-for-sale investments, changes in fair value of and costs of terminating interest rate swaps, as well as realized and unrealized gains or losses from any instrument used by management to economically hedge the impact of changing interest rates on its portfolio and book value per common share, such as Eurodollar futures. As a result, these non-GAAP measures should be considered as a supplement to, and not as a substitute for, the Company's GAAP results as reported on its consolidated statements of comprehensive income.
