We generate dividend income and long term returns though our investment, financing and hedging strategies. The Company operates as a real estate investment trust, or REIT, and is internally managed.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries (together, “Dynex” or, as appropriate, the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10, Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all significant adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, considered necessary for a fair statement of results for the interim period have been included. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Operating results for the three ~~and nine~~ months ended ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2025~~2026 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any other interim periods or for the entire year ending December 31, ~~2025~~2026. The unaudited consolidated financial statements included herein should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2024~~2025 (the “~~2024~~2025 Form 10-K”) filed with the SEC.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements as well as the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The most significant estimate used by management relates to the fair value measurement of its investments, including TBA securities accounted for as derivative instruments, which is discussed further below within this note to the consolidated financial statements. The Company believes the estimates and assumptions underlying the consolidated financial statements included herein are reasonable and supportable based on the information available as of ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2025~~2026.

Consolidation and Variable Interest Entities

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and the accounts of its majority owned subsidiaries ~~and variable interest entities (“VIE”) for which it is the primary beneficiary~~. ~~The~~All ~~Company~~intercompany ~~consolidates~~accounts a VIE if the Company is determined to be the VIE’s primary beneficiary, which is defined as the party that has both (i) the power to control the activities that most significantly impact the VIE’s financial performance; and ~~(ii)~~transactions ~~the~~have ~~right~~been toeliminated ~~receive benefits or absorb losses that could potentially be significant to the VIE. The Company reconsiders its evaluation of whether to consolidate a VIE on an ongoing basis, based on changes~~ in ~~the facts and circumstances pertaining to the VIE~~consolidation. Though the Company invests in Agency and non-Agency MBS which are generally considered to be interests in VIEs, the Company does not consolidate these entities because it does not meet the criteria to be deemed the primary beneficiary. The maximum exposure to loss for these VIEs is the carrying value of the MBS.

7The Company did not consolidate any variable interest entities (“VIEs”) as of March 31, 2026. The Company consolidates a VIE if the Company is determined to be the VIE’s primary beneficiary, which is defined as the party that has both (i) the power to control the activities that most significantly impact the VIE’s financial performance; and (ii) the right to receive benefits or absorb losses that could potentially be significant to the VIE.

Income Taxes

The Company has elected to be taxed as a ~~real estate investment trust (“~~REIT”) under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the “Tax Code”) and the corresponding provisions of state law. To qualify as a REIT, the Company must meet certain asset, income, ownership, and distribution tests. To meet these requirements, the Company’s main source of income is interest earned from obligations secured by mortgages on real property, and the Company must distribute at least 90% of its annual REIT taxable income to shareholders. The Company’s income will generally not be subject to federal income tax to the extent its income is distributed as dividends to shareholders.

The Company assesses its tax positions for all open tax years and determines whether the Company has any material unrecognized liabilities and records these liabilities, if any, to the extent they are deemed more likely than not to have been incurred.

Net Income (Loss) Per Common Share

The Company calculates basic net income (loss) per common share by dividing net income (loss) to common shareholders for the period by weighted-average shares of common stock outstanding for that period. Please see Note 2 for the calculation of the Company’s basic and diluted net income (loss) per common share for the periods indicated.

The Company currently has restricted stock, service-based restricted stock units (“RSUs”) and performance-based stock units (“PSUs”) issued and outstanding. Restricted stock awards issued under the Company’s 2020 Stock and Incentive Plan (the “2020 Plan”) are considered participating securities and therefore are included in the computation of basic net income per common share using the two-class method because holders of unvested shares of restricted stock issued are eligible to receive non-forfeitable dividends. Holders of RSUs and PSUs issued under the 2020 ~~plan~~Plan as well as the Company’s 2025 Stock and Incentive Plan (the “2025 Plan”) accrue forfeitable dividend equivalent rights ("DERs") over the period outstanding, receiving dividend payments only upon the settlement date if the requisite service-based and performance-based conditions have been achieved, as applicable. As such, RSUs and PSUs are excluded from the computation of basic net income per common share but are included in the computation of diluted net income per common share using the treasury stock method unless the effect is to reduce a net loss or increase the net income per common share (also known as “anti-dilutive”). Upon vesting, restrictions on transfer expire on each share of restricted stock, RSU, and PSU, and each such share or unit becomes one unrestricted share of common stock and is included in the computation of basic net income per common share.

Because the Company’s 6.900% Series C Fixed-to-Floating Rate Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock (the “Series C Preferred Stock”) is redeemable at the Company’s option for cash only and convertible into shares of common stock only upon a change of control of the Company (and subject to other circumstances) as described in Article IIIC of the Company’s Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, the effect of those shares and their related dividends are excluded from the calculation of diluted net income per common share for the periods presented.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include unrestricted demand deposits at highly rated financial institutions and highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less. The Company’s cash balances fluctuate throughout the year and may exceed Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insured limits from time to time. Although the Company bears risk on amounts in excess of those insured by the FDIC, the Company believes the risk of loss is mitigated by the financial position, creditworthiness, and strength of the depository institutions in which those deposits are held.

Cash Collateral Posted To/By Counterparties

The Company regularly pledges and receives amounts to cover margin requirements related to the Company’s financing and derivative instruments. If the amount pledged to a counterparty exceeds the amount received from a counterparty, the net amount is recorded as an asset within “cash collateral posted to counterparties,” and if the amount received from a counterparty exceeds the amount pledged to a counterparty, the ~~net amount is recorded as a liability within “cash collateral posted by counterparties” on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.~~

Mortgage-Backed Securities

The Company’s MBS are recorded at fair value on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet. Changes in fair value of MBS purchased prior to January 1, 2021 are designated as available-for-sale (“AFS”) with changes in fair value reported in other comprehensive income (“OCI”) as an unrealized gain (loss) until the security is sold or matures. Effective January 1, 2021, the Company elected the fair value option (“FVO”) for all MBS purchased on or after that date with changes in fair value reported in net income as “unrealized gain (loss) on investments, net” until the security is sold or matures. Management elected the fair value option so that net income will reflect the changes in fair value for its future purchases of MBS in a manner consistent with the presentation and timing of the changes in fair value of its derivative instruments. Upon the sale of an MBS, any unrealized gain or loss within OCI or net income is reclassified to “realized gain (loss) on sale of investments, net” within net income using the specific identification method.

Interest Income, Premium Amortization, and Discount Accretion. Interest income on MBS is accrued based on the outstanding principal balance (or notional balance in the case of IO securities) and the contractual terms. Premiums or discounts associated with the purchase of ~~Agency~~ MBS ~~as well as any non-Agency MBS~~ are amortized or accreted into interest income over the life of such securities using the effective interest method, and adjustments to premium amortization and discount accretion are made for actual cash payments received. On at least a quarterly basis, the Company reviews and makes any necessary adjustments to its cash flows and updates the yield recognized on these assets.

Determination of MBS Fair Value. The Company estimates the fair value of the majority of its MBS based upon prices obtained from an independent third-party pricing service. These prices are assessed for reasonableness using ~~broker~~additional ~~quotes and other~~ third-party pricing services. Please refer to Note 6 for further discussion of MBS fair value measurements.

Allowance for Credit Losses. On at least a quarterly basis, the Company evaluates any MBS designated as AFS with a fair value less than its amortized cost for credit losses. If the difference between the present value of cash flows expected to be collected on the MBS is less than its amortized cost, the difference is recorded as an allowance for credit loss through net income up to and not exceeding the amount that the amortized cost exceeds current fair value. Subsequent changes in credit loss estimates are recognized in earnings in the period in which they occur. Because the majority of the Company’s investments are higher credit quality and most are guaranteed by a GSE, the Company is not likely to have an allowance for credit losses related to its MBS recorded on its consolidated balance sheet.

Interest accrued between payment dates on MBS is presented separately from the Company’s investment portfolio as “accrued interest receivable” on its consolidated balance sheet. The Company does not estimate an allowance for credit loss for its accrued interest receivable because the interest is generally received within 30 days and amounts not received when due are written off against interest income.

Repurchase Agreements

The Company’s repurchase agreements are used to finance its purchases of MBS. The Company pledges its securities as collateral to secure a loan, which is equal to a specified percentage of the estimated fair value of the pledged collateral. The Company retains beneficial ownership of the pledged collateral. Pursuant to Accounting ~~Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 860, the Company accounts for repurchase agreements as collateralized~~

DYNEX CAPITAL, INC.

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Standards Codification (~~UNAUDITED~~“ASC”) Topic 860, the Company accounts for repurchase agreements as collateralized financing transactions, which are carried at their contractual amounts (cost), plus accrued interest. The interest rates the Company pays for these borrowings are based on a spread added to the Secured Overnight Funding Rate (“SOFR”). At the maturity of a repurchase agreement borrowing, the Company is required to repay the loan and concurrently receives back its pledged collateral from the lender, or, with the consent of the lender, the Company may renew the agreement at the then prevailing financing rate. A repurchase agreement lender may require the Company to pledge additional collateral in the event of a decline in the fair value of the collateral pledged. Repurchase agreement financing is recourse to the Company and the assets pledged. The repurchase facilities available to the Company are uncommitted with no guarantee of renewal.

financing transactions, which are carried at their contractual amounts (cost), plus accrued interest. The interest rates the Company pays for these borrowings are based on a spread added to the Secured Overnight Funding Rate (“SOFR”). At the maturity of a repurchase agreement borrowing, the Company is required to repay the loan and concurrently receives back its pledged collateral from the lender, or, with the consent of the lender, the Company may renew the agreement at the then prevailing financing rate. A repurchase agreement lender may require the Company to pledge additional collateral in the event of a decline in the fair value of the collateral pledged. Repurchase agreement financing is recourse to the Company and the assets pledged. The repurchase facilities available to the Company are uncommitted with no guarantee of renewal.

Derivative Instruments

Derivative instruments are carried at fair value, and all periodic interest benefits/costs and changes in the fair value of derivative instruments, including gains and losses realized upon termination, maturity, or settlement, are recorded in “gain (loss) on derivative instruments, net” on the Company’s consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss). Cash receipts and payments related to derivative instruments are classified in the investing activities section of the consolidated statements of cash flows in accordance with the underlying nature or purpose of the derivative transactions.

The Company’s short positions in U.S. Treasury futures contracts are centrally cleared through the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (“CME”), which requires the Company to post initial margin as determined by the CME. Daily variation margin is exchanged, typically in cash, for the changes in the fair value of the futures contracts, which is treated as legal settlement of the exposure under the related futures contracts as opposed to a pledge of collateral. The effect of these legal settlements reduces what would have otherwise been reported as the fair value of the futures contracts, generally to $0. The margin requirement varies based on the market value of the open positions and the equity retained in the account. Any margin excess or deficit outstanding is recorded as a receivable or payable within “due from/to counterparties” as of the date of the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. The Company realizes gains or losses on these contracts upon expiration at an amount equal to the difference between the current fair value of the underlying asset and the contractual price of the futures contract.

The Company’s interest rate swaps are pay-fixed, which involve the receipt of variable-rate amounts based on SOFR from a counterparty in exchange for the Company making fixed-rate payments over the life of the interest rate swap without exchange of the underlying notional amount. The net periodic interest benefit (cost) is recorded in the period earned (incurred) in “gain (loss) on derivative instruments, net”, but the net receipt (payment) of cash is exchanged annually, typically on the anniversary of each agreement’s effective date. ~~Like~~Similar to the Company’s U.S. Treasury futures, interest rate swap agreements are centrally cleared through the CME with requirements to post initial margin and to exchange daily variation margin amounts, which are treated as legal settlements of the agreements. Any margin excess or deficit outstanding is recorded as a receivable or payable within “due from/to counterparties” as of the date of the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.

The Company’s interest rate swaptions are SOFR-based and provide the Company the right, but not the obligation, to enter into an interest rate swap at a predetermined notional amount with a stated term and pay and receive rates in the future. These agreements are entered into directly with a counterparty (a “bilateral contract”) with whom we may exchange margin collateral. Because these agreements are not centrally cleared, the Company has exposure to counterparty risk. The Company records the premium it will pay for the swaption as a derivative asset on its consolidated balance sheet and adjusts the balance for changes in fair value through “gain (loss) on derivative instruments” until the swaption is exercised or the contract expires. If the swaption expires unexercised, the realized loss is limited to the premium paid. If exercised, the realized gain or loss on the swaptions is equal to the difference between the fair value of the underlying interest rate swap and the premium paid.

The Company may also use options on U.S. Treasury futures, which are initially recorded at the ~~contract~~ price of the premium paid at inception. Subsequent changes in fair value are recorded in “gain (loss) on derivatives instruments” until the option is exercised or the contract expires. If the option expires unexercised, the realized loss is limited to the ~~contract~~premium ~~price~~ paid at inception. If exercised, the realized gain or loss on the option is equal to the difference between the fair value of the underlying U.S. Treasury future and the ~~contract~~premium ~~price~~ paid at inception.

The Company purchases to-be-announced (“TBA”) securities as a means of investing in non-specified ~~fixed-rate Agency RMBS and may also periodically sell TBA securities as a means of economically hedging its~~

fixed-rate Agency RMBS and may also periodically sell TBA securities as a means of economically hedging its exposure to Agency RMBS. A TBA security is a forward contract (~~UNAUDITED~~“TBA contract”) for the purchase (“long position”) or sale (“short position”) of a non-specified Agency MBS at a predetermined price with certain principal and interest terms and certain types of collateral, but the particular Agency securities to be delivered are not identified until shortly before the settlement date. The Company accounts for long and short positions in Agency RMBS TBAs as derivative instruments in accordance with ASC 815 because the Company cannot assert that it is probable at inception and throughout the term of an individual TBA transaction that its settlement will result in physical delivery of the underlying Agency RMBS or that the individual TBA transaction will settle in the shortest time period possible.

Please refer to Note 5 for additional information regarding the Company’s derivative instruments as well as Note 6 for information on how the fair value of these instruments is calculated.

Share-Based Compensation

The Company’s ~~Board of Directors adopted the~~ 2025 ~~Stock and Incentive~~ Plan ~~(the “2025 Plan”), which was approved by the Company’s shareholders on May 20, 2025. The 2025 Plan, which replaced the Company’s 2020 Plan,~~ reserves for issuance up to 12,000,000 common shares for eligible employees, non-employee directors, consultants, and advisors to the Company to be granted in the form of stock options, restricted stock, RSUs, stock appreciation rights, ~~PSU~~PSUs, and performance-based cash awards (collectively, “awards”). Awards previously granted under the 2020 Plan will remain outstanding and valid in accordance with their terms, but no new awards will be granted under the 2020 Plan. As of ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2025~~2026, there were 119,~~382~~426,~~492~~189 common shares remaining available for issuance under the 2025 Plan.

The Company has issued restricted stock and RSUs, which are treated as equity awards and recorded at their fair value using the closing stock price on the grant date. Compensation expense is generally recognized over a service period specified within each award with a corresponding credit to shareholders’ equity using the straight-line method until the vesting date specified within each award or until the employee becomes eligible for retirement, if earlier than the vesting date. Compensation expense is recognized immediately upon the grant date for equity awards granted to an employee who is retirement eligible.

The Company also has PSUs issued and outstanding which contain Company performance-based ~~and market performance-based~~ conditions. PSUs subject to Company performance-based conditions are initially recognized as equity at their fair value which is measured using the closing stock price on the grant date multiplied by the number of units expected to vest based on an assessment of the probability of achievement of the Company performance-based conditions as of the grant date. The grant date fair value is recognized as expense using the straight-line method until the earlier of the vesting date specified within each award or the date the employee becomes eligible for retirement. Adjustments are made, if necessary, based on any change in probability of achievement which is re-assessed as of each reporting date and on at least a quarterly basis. PSUs subject to market performance-based conditions are recognized as equity at their grant date fair value determined through a Monte-Carlo simulation of the Company’s common stock total shareholder return (“TSR”) relative to the common stock TSR of the group of peer companies specified in the award agreement. Awards subject to market performance-based conditions are not assessed for probability of achievement and are not remeasured subsequent to issuance. The grant date fair value is recognized as expense using the straight-line method until the earlier of the vesting date specified within each award or the date the employee becomes eligible for retirement, even if the market performance-based conditions are not achieved. The Company no longer has any market performance-based PSUs outstanding as of September 30, 2025.

The Company does not estimate forfeitures for any of its share-based compensation awards but adjusts for actual forfeitures in the periods in which they occur. Because RSUs and PSUs have forfeitable DERs, which are paid in cash only upon settlement, any accrued DERs on forfeited units are reversed with a corresponding credit to “Compensation and benefits” expense.

Please see Note 7 for additional information about the Company’s share-based compensation awards.

(1) CMBS interest only (“IO”) securities provide the investor the right to receive a portion of the monthly interest payments (but not principal cash flows) on the unpaid principal balance of the underlying pool of commercial mortgage loans. The Company held a notional balance of Agency CMBS IO and non-Agency CMBS IO of $5,001,601 and $1,140,707, respectively, as of September 30, 2025, and $6,196,778 and $2,450,398, respectively, as of December 31, 2024. Non-Agency securities do not have a GSE guarantee.

(1) The Company held a notional balance of Agency CMBS IO and non-Agency CMBS IO of $4,771,493 and $1,019,323, respectively, as of March 31, 2026, and $4,928,803 and $1,071,722, respectively, as of December 31, 2025.

The majority of the Company’s MBS are pledged as collateral for the Company’s repurchase agreements, which are disclosed in Note 4. Actual maturities of MBS are affected by the contractual lives of the underlying mortgage collateral, scheduled payments, and unscheduled prepayments of principal, and the payment priority structure of the security; therefore, actual maturities are generally shorter than the securities' stated contractual maturities.

The unrealized loss positions on the Company’s MBS designated as AFS as of ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2025~~2026 and December 31, ~~2024~~2025 were the result of higher interest rates and wider spreads to U.S. Treasuries ~~versus~~compared to at the time of purchase. The unrealized loss positions are not credit related; therefore, the Company did not record an allowance for credit losses as of ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2025~~2026 or December 31, ~~2024~~2025. The Company has the ability and intent to hold any MBS with an unrealized loss until the recovery in its value. This assessment is based on the amount of the unrealized loss and significance of the related investment as well as the Company’s leverage and liquidity position. In addition, for its non-Agency MBS, which are not guaranteed by a GSE, the Company reviews the credit ratings, the credit characteristics of the mortgage loans collateralizing these securities, and the estimated future cash flows including projected collateral losses.

The Company’s accrued interest payable related to its repurchase agreement borrowings increased to $~~111~~131 million as of ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2025~~2026 from $4595 million as of December 31, ~~2024~~2025.

The Company’s counterparties, as set forth in the master repurchase agreement with ~~the~~each counterparty, require the Company to comply with various customary operating and financial covenants, including, but not limited to, minimum net worth, maximum declines in net worth in a given period, and maximum leverage requirements as well as maintaining the Company’s REIT status. In addition, some of the agreements contain cross default features, whereby default under an agreement with one lender simultaneously causes default under agreements with other lenders. To the extent that the Company fails to comply with the covenants contained in these financing agreements or is otherwise found to be in default under the terms of such agreements, the counterparty has the right to accelerate amounts due under the master repurchase agreement. The Company believes it was in full compliance with all covenants in master repurchase agreements under which there were amounts outstanding as of ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2025~~2026.

The Company's repurchase agreements are subject to underlying agreements with master netting or similar arrangements, which provide for the right of set off in the event of default or in the event of bankruptcy of either party to the transactions. The Company reports its repurchase agreements to these arrangements on a gross basis.

NOTE 5 – DERIVATIVES

Types and Uses of Derivatives Instruments

Interest Rate Derivatives. The Company frequently changes the type of derivative instruments it uses to mitigate the impact of changing interest rates on its repurchase agreement financing costs and the fair value of its investments. Please refer to Note 1 for descriptions of these instruments and how the Company accounts for them.

TBA Transactions. The Company purchases TBA securities as a means of investing in non-specified fixed-rate Agency RMBS and may also periodically sell TBA securities as a means of economically hedging its exposure to Agency RMBS. ~~The~~Please ~~Company~~refer ~~holds long or short positions in Agency RMBS TBA securities by executing a series of transactions, commonly referred~~ to asNote ~~“dollar~~1 roll” transactions, which effectively delay the settlement of a forward purchase (or sale) of a non-specified Agency RMBS by entering into an offsetting TBA position, net settling the paired-off positions in cash, and simultaneously entering into an identical TBA long (or short) position with a later settlement date. TBA securities purchased (or sold) for amore ~~forward~~information ~~settlement~~about ~~date~~these ~~are generally priced at a discount relative to TBA~~ securities ~~settling in the current month~~. This discount, often referred to as “drop income” represents the economic equivalent of net interest income (interest income less implied financing cost) on the underlying Agency security from trade date to settlement date. The Company accounts for Agency RMBS TBAs (whether net long or net short positions, or collectively “TBA dollar roll positions”) as derivative instruments because it cannot assert that it is probable at inception and throughout the term of an individual TBA transaction that its settlement will result in physical delivery of the underlying Agency RMBS, or that the individual TBA transaction will settle in the shortest period possible.

(1)The Company pays the premium for its interest rate swaptions at the end of the option period, so the carrying value on the Company's consolidated balance sheets is fair value, net of the payable for the unpaid premium as of the periods indicated. The Company pays the premium for its options on U.S. Treasury futures at inception, so the carrying value is equal to the fair value as of the periods indicated.

Because the daily margin exchanged for the Company’s U.S. Treasury futures and interest rate swaps are considered legal settlement of the derivative as opposed to a pledge of collateral, these instruments have a carrying value of $0 on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. The Company’s U.S. Treasury futures, excluding the recognition of variation margin settlements, were in a net asset position of $58 million as of March 31, 2026 and a net asset position of $22 million as of December 31, 2025, and its interest rate swaps were in a net asset position of $39 million as of March 31, 2026 and net liability position of $(46) million as of December 31, 2025. The amount of cash posted by the Company to cover required initial margin for its U.S. Treasury futures and its interest rate swaps was $486 million as of March 31, 2026 and $392 million as of December 31, 2025, which was recorded within “cash collateral posted to counterparties.” The Company had a margin payable of $26 million as of March 31, 2026 recorded within “due to counterparties” and $17 million as of December 31, 2025 recorded within “due from counterparties.”

NOTE 6 – FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Fair value is based on the assumptions market participants would use when pricing an asset or liability and also considers all aspects of nonperformance risk, including the entity’s own credit standing, when measuring fair value of a liability. ASC Topic 820 established a valuation hierarchy of three levels as follows:

•Level 1 – Inputs are unadjusted, quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the measurement date.

•Level 2 – Inputs include quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in inactive markets for identical or similar assets or liabilities; or inputs either directly observable or indirectly observable through correlation with market data at the measurement date and for the duration of the instrument’s anticipated life.

•Level 3 – Unobservable inputs are supported by little or no market activity. The unobservable inputs represent management’s best estimate of how market participants would price the asset or liability at the measurement date. Consideration is given to the risk inherent in the valuation technique and the risk inherent in the inputs to the model.

The following table presents the Company’s financial instruments that are measured at fair value on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet by their valuation hierarchy levels as of the dates indicated:

The fair value measurements for the Company’s TBA securities and its MBS are considered Level 2 because there are substantially similar securities actively trading or for which there has been recent trading activity in their respective markets. Fair value for Agency MBS and ~~Agency RMBS~~ TBA securities is based on prices received from an independent third-party pricing service. In valuing a security, the pricing service primarily uses a market approach, which uses observable prices and other relevant information that is generated by market transactions of identical or similar securities, but may use an income approach, which uses valuation techniques such as discounted cash flow modeling. Examples of the observable inputs and assumptions used in the valuation techniques include market interest rates, credit spreads, and projected prepayment speeds, among other things. The Company reviews the prices it receives from the pricing service for reasonableness using broker quotes as well as other third-party pricing services.

The Company's mortgage loans held for investment are single-family mortgage loans, which were originated or purchased by the Company prior to 2000, and for which the Company has elected the fair value option. The fair value measurements for these mortgage loans are considered Level 3 because there has been no recent trading activity of similar instruments upon which their fair value can be measured. The fair value for these Level 3 assets is measured by discounting the estimated future cash flows derived from cash flow models using certain inputs such as the security’s credit rating, coupon rate, estimated prepayment speeds, expected weighted average life, collateral composition, and expected credit losses as well as certain other relevant information. The Company used a constant prepayment rate assumption of 10%, default rate of 2%, loss severity of 20%, and a discount rate of 10% in measuring the fair value of its Level 3 assets as of September 30, 2025 and as of December 31, 2024.19

The Company’s short positions in U.S. Treasury futures contracts are valued based on exchange pricing and are classified accordingly as Level 1 measurements. Interest rate swaps are valued using the daily settlement price, or fair value, determined by the clearing exchange based on a pricing model that references observable market inputs, including current benchmark rates and the forward yield curve, and thus their fair values are considered Level 2 measurements. The carrying value of the U.S. Treasury futures contracts and interest rate swaps on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets is $0 because the instruments require daily margin exchanges, which are considered by the settlement agent to represent legal settlement of the contracts on a daily basis. Please see Note 1 and Note 5 for additional information regarding the fair value of the Company’s derivative instruments.

The fair value measurement of interest rate swaptions is considered Level 2 because it is based on the fair value of the underlying interest rate swap and time remaining until its expiration and is carried on the balance sheet net of any deferred premium to be paid upon exercise or expiration. The fair value measurement of options on U.S. Treasury futures is considered Level 1 because they are valued based on closing exchange prices on these contracts. Options on U.S. Treasury futures are initially recorded on the balance sheet at the contract price paid and subsequently adjusted for changes in fair value until exercise or expiration.

The Company’s repurchase agreements are reported at cost, which approximates fair value. Given their short-term nature (less than one year) and the interest rates on outstanding amounts, which largely correspond to prevailing rates observed in the repurchase agreement market, their inputs are considered Level 2.

NOTE 8 - SEGMENT REPORTING

The Company’s operations consist of one reportable segment which involves investing in MBS and funding these investments with repurchase agreements and equity. Because the Company’s investment portfolio and financings are subject to market risks, primarily interest rate risk, management seeks to offset a portion of its market value exposure and financing costs through its interest rate derivative instruments (“hedging portfolio”). The Company’s investment and hedging portfolios are managed together.

The Company’s revenue is derived from its investment portfolio, which currently consists of primarily Agency RMBS. The Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) is its Co-CEO and President. Segment performance is measured by and resource allocation decisions are based on “comprehensive income (loss) to common shareholders.” ~~as presented on the Company’s consolidated statement of comprehensive income (loss).~~ The segment’s significant expense categories as shown on the Company’s consolidated statement of comprehensive income ~~(loss)~~ are regularly provided to the CODM for review and are also used to make resource allocation decisions. Segment assets are total assets as shown on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet.

24NOTE 9 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Subsequent to March 31, 2026, the Company issued 8 million shares of its common stock through its ATM program, for which it received proceeds of approximately $103 million, net of commissions.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

EXECUTIVE OVERVIEW

During ~~Dynex~~the ~~Capital~~first ~~operates~~quarter atof 2026, financial markets experienced increased volatility as investors reassessed the ~~intersection~~outlook offor ~~capital~~inflation, ~~markets~~monetary policy, and global growth amid heightened geopolitical uncertainty. While the U.S. ~~housing~~economy ~~finance~~continued ~~system~~to expand at a moderate pace, ~~using~~uncertainty ~~our~~around ~~expertise~~the inflation trajectory led market participants to ~~earn~~reduce ~~income~~expectations ~~from~~for ~~investing~~near‑term ~~primarily~~Federal inReserve ~~Agency~~policy ~~residential~~easing.

WeSpreads ~~generate~~across ~~dividend~~Agency ~~income~~MBS ~~and~~widened ~~long~~meaningfully, ~~term~~particularly ~~returns~~late ~~though~~in ~~our~~the ~~investment~~quarter, ~~financing~~as periodic correlation with risky assets increased amid macroeconomic and ~~hedging~~geopolitical ~~strategies~~developments.

~~Market~~Against ~~Conditions~~this backdrop, Agency MBS continues to offer attractive long‑term return potential relative to other high‑quality fixed‑income assets, particularly given muted new mortgage origination supply and ~~Outlook~~the sector’s strong liquidity profile. We continue to monitor monetary policy, inflation trends, housing market activity, supply‑and‑demand dynamics, and geopolitical developments, as we assess their potential impact on interest rates, spreads, prepayment behavior, and financing conditions. We remain focused on disciplined portfolio construction, liquidity management, and risk positioning as market conditions continue to evolve.

InThe ~~the~~charts ~~third~~below ~~quarter~~show ~~of 2025,~~ the ~~Federal~~range ~~Open~~of ~~Market Committee (“FOMC”) decided to lower the target rate for the~~ U.S. ~~Federal~~Treasury ~~Funds~~and ~~rate~~Secured byOvernight 25Funding ~~basis~~Rate ~~points~~(“SOFR”)-based toswap ~~4.0%~~rates tofor ~~4.25% in September 2025 in support of its goals and in light of~~ the ~~shift~~three inmonths ~~the~~ended ~~balance~~March 31, of2026 ~~risks.

This is the first rate cut in 2025 with further cuts expected this year and in 2026; however, as observed over the last 2 years, actual rate cuts have lagged expected rate cuts. indicated:

We continue to monitor the activities of the FOMC as their actions to reduce the Federal Funds rate are expected to have a direct and positive impact on the cost of our repurchase borrowings. The swaps market and related positions continue to add to the interest spread that we are earning; however, if the yield curve steepens, new swap positions in the future could be at a net expense to our portfolio instead of a net positive today. 23

Dynex continues to monitor monetary policy, housing policy, supply and demand dynamics, and other changes to U.S. policies including those impacting the GSEs. Mortgage rates are beginning to trend down and refinance activity increased at the end of the third quarter. We are monitoring the evolution of the markets, assessing the impact of prepayment speeds, new supply of mortgage production and the impact these factors will have on spreads. We are also watching public and private credit markets, global macroeconomic conditions, and large investment flows into and out of market sectors as well as the potential impacts from the ongoing federal government shutdown.

(4)Fair value of TBAs is the implied market value of the underlying Agency security as of the end of the period.

(5)TBAs are included on the consolidated balance sheet within “derivative assets/liabilities” at their net carrying value which is the difference between their implied market value and implied cost basis. Please refer to Note 5 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

(6)TBAs are excluded from this calculation as they do not have a defined weighted-average loan balance or age until mortgages have been assigned to the pool.

(7)Constant prepayment rate (“CPR”) represents the 3-month CPR of Agency RMBS held as of date indicated.

(8)Duration measures the sensitivity of a security's price to the change in interest rates and represents the percent change in price of a security for a 100-basis point increase in interest rates. We calculate duration using third-party financial models and empirical data. Different models and methodologies can produce different estimates of duration for the same securities.

(9)Represents the weighted average market yield projected using cash flows generated from the forward curve based on market prices as of the date indicated and assuming zero volatility.

Our Agency CMBS IO are from Freddie Mac Series K deals from which interest continues to be advanced even in the event of an underlying default up until liquidation. ~~According to Freddie Mac, 99.6% of the loans in K-deals are current as of June 30, 2025.~~ Our non-Agency CMBS IO were all originated prior to 2018 and are backed by loans collateralized by a number of different property types, such as multifamily, office, retail, hotels, industrial, storage, and others. Our non-Agency CMBS IO investments are nearing maturity and have very little amortized cost remaining; any changes in actual payments may result in large swings in yield as shown below.

Gains (Losses) on Investments and Derivative Instruments

During the three months ended September 30, 2025, the fair value of our investment portfolio increased $185 million primarily due to a decline in the 10-year U.S. Treasury rate and tighter mortgage spreads to U.S. Treasuries. These gains were offset by net losses on our hedging portfolio of $(38) million, which is net of periodic interest of $14 million we earned from our interest rate swaps. Losses in our hedging portfolio occur when SOFR-based swap rates and U.S. Treasury rates decline relative to the rates in effect at the time we enter into a hedge.

During the three months ended June 30, 2025, the fair value of our investment portfolio increased $45 million primarily due to purchases of new investments during the second quarter. These gains were offset by net losses on our hedging portfolio of $(66) million, which is net of periodic interest of $12 million we earned from our interest rate swaps. Our hedge losses were primarily the result of the decline in SOFR-based swap rates and U.S. Treasury rates as of June 30, 2025 as compared to March 31, 2025.

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2025, declined slightly compared to the three months ended June 30, 2025 primarily due to lower share-based compensation expenses.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2025 Compared to the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2024

Net Interest Income

Net interest income and net interest spread improved for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2024 due to the purchases of higher yielding Agency RMBS over the past year. Though interest expense has increased due to an increase in repurchase agreement borrowings used to finance these purchases, financing costs as a percentage of the average balance of borrowings have declined due to the FOMC’s lowering of the Federal Funds rate by 75 basis points since September 30, 2024.

For the three months ended March 31, 2025, the fair value of our investment portfolio increased $171.6 million primarily due to a decline of 36 basis points in the 10-year U.S. Treasury rate. These gains were mostly offset by net losses on our hedging portfolio of $(171.1) million (excluding $10.9 million of net periodic interest we earned from our interest rate swaps), as a result of the decline in 10-year and 30-year U.S. Treasury rates as well as SOFR rates across the curve.

(1)Realized and unrealized gains (losses) on TBA securities are recorded within “gain (loss) on derivative instruments, net” on the Company’s consolidated statements of comprehensive income.

(2)Realized gain ~~(loss)~~ for interest rate swaps consists of net periodic interest benefit of $371.57 million for the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September~~March 3031, 2026, $7.6 million for the three months ended December 31, 2025, and $410.29 million for the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2024~~2025.

We hold long and short positions in TBA securities by executing a series of transactions, commonly referred to as “dollar roll” transactions, which effectively delay the settlement of a forward purchase (or sale) of a non-specified Agency RMBS by entering into an offsetting TBA position, net settling the paired-off positions in cash, and simultaneously entering into an identical TBA long (or short) position with a later settlement date. TBA securities purchased or sold for a forward settlement date are generally priced at a discount relative to TBA securities settling in the current month because the current month settlement will receive a coupon sooner than the TBA settling in a forward month. This price difference, often referred to as “drop income,” represents the economic equivalent of net interest income (interest income less implied financing cost) on the underlying Agency security from the trade date to the settlement date. We account for all TBAs (whether net long or net short positions, or collectively “TBA dollar roll positions”) as derivative instruments because we cannot assert that it is probable at inception and throughout the term of an individual TBA transaction that its settlement will result in physical delivery of the underlying Agency RMBS, or that the individual TBA transaction will settle in the shortest period possible.

Our non-GAAP financial measures, ~~which~~ include earnings available for distribution (“EAD”) to common shareholders (including per common share) and economic net interest income and the related metric economic net interest spread. Management believes these non-GAAP financial measures may be useful to investors because they are viewed by management as aadditional ~~measure~~measures of the investment portfolio’s return ~~based on the effective yield of its investments, net of financing costs and, with respect to EAD, net of other normal recurring operating income/expenses~~.

Drop income generated by TBA dollar roll positions, which is included in "gain (loss) on derivatives instruments, net" on the Company's consolidated statements of comprehensive income, is included in EAD because management views drop income as the economic equivalent of net interest income (interest income less implied financing cost) on the underlying Agency security from trade date to settlement date. However, drop income/loss does not represent the total realized gain/loss from the Company’s investments in TBA securities.

Management also includes net periodic interest from its interest rate swaps, which is included in "gain (loss) on derivatives instruments, net," in EAD and economic 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 net periodic interest from interest rate swaps is a helpful indicator of the Company’s total financing cost in addition to GAAP interest expense.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Our primary sources of liquidity include borrowings under repurchase arrangements and monthly principal and interest payments we receive on our investments. Additional sources may include proceeds from the sale of investments, equity offerings, and net payments received from counterparties for derivative instruments. We use our liquidity to purchase investments, to pay amounts due on our repurchase agreement borrowings, and to pay our operating expenses and dividends on our common and preferred stock. We also use our liquidity to meet margin requirements for our repurchase agreements and derivative transactions, including TBA contracts, under the terms of the related agreements. We may also periodically use liquidity to repurchase shares of the Company’s stock.

During the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2025~~2026, we issued 6132,~~025~~101,~~405~~365 shares of common stock through our ATM program, resulting in proceeds of $~~776~~0.4 ~~million~~billion, net of broker commissions and fees. We ~~partially~~ deployed these proceeds into ~~Agency~~purchases ~~RMBS~~of ~~and~~Agency ~~to post initial margin requirements related to a larger hedge portfolio including interest rate swaps, swaptions, and U~~RMBS.~~S. Treasury futures.~~

Our liquidity fluctuates based on our investment activities, leverage, capital raising activities, and changes in the fair value of our investments and derivative instruments. Our measurement of liquidity includes unrestricted cash and cash equivalents and ~~unencumbered~~unpledged Agency MBS, which are recognized as assets on our consolidated balance sheet. In our measure of liquidity, we also include the fair value of noncash collateral pledged to us by our counterparties, which we typically receive when the fair value of our pledged collateral exceeds our current margin requirement. Our liquidity as of ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2025~~2026, was ~~over~~approximately $1.3 billion, which consisted of unrestricted cash of $~~491~~773 million, ~~unencumbered~~and unpledged Agency MBS with a fair value of $~~584~~478 million,. ~~and~~Our ~~noncash~~liquidity ~~collateral~~was ~~pledged by our counterparties of~~ $~~10 million~~1.4 ~~Our~~billion ~~liquidity~~ as of December 31, ~~2024, was $658 million~~2025.

We continuously monitor our liquidity, especially with potential risk events on the horizon, such as tariff changes, potential GSE transition, uncertainty regarding Federal Reserve policy decisions, the size of the Federal Reserve’s balance sheet, quantitative tightening or easing measures, federal government shutdowns, and the impact on global markets stemming from global central bank policies. We are also monitoring the wars and conflicts around the globe. We continuously assess the adequacy of our liquidity under various scenarios based on changes in the fair value of our investments and derivative instruments due to market factors such as changes in the absolute level of interest rates and the shape of the yield curve, credit spreads, lender haircuts, and prepayment speeds, which in turn have an impact on margin requirements. In performing these analyses, we also consider the current state of the fixed-income markets and the repurchase agreement markets to determine if market forces such as supply-demand imbalances or structural changes to these markets could change the liquidity of MBS or the availability of financing. We have not experienced any material changes in the terms of our repurchase agreements with our counterparties, and they have not indicated to us any concerns regarding access to liquidity.

In addition to the GSE guarantee of principal payments on our Agency investments, we expect the capital and repurchase agreement markets will remain accessible at capacities sufficient to cover our short-term and long-term liquidity needs.

Our perception of the liquidity of our investments and market conditions significantly influences our targeted leverage. In general, our leverage will increase if we view the risk-reward opportunity of higher leverage on our capital outweighs the risk to our liquidity and book value. Our leverage, which we calculate using total liabilities plus the cost basis of TBA long positions, was 7.5 times shareholders’ equity as of September 30, 2025. We include 100% of the cost basis of our TBA securities in evaluating our leverage because it is possible under certain market conditions that it may be uneconomical for us to roll a TBA long position into future months, which may result in us having to take physical delivery of the underlying securities and use cash or other financing sources to fund our total purchase commitment.

our capital outweighs the risk to our liquidity and book value. Our leverage, which we calculate using total liabilities plus the cost basis of TBA long positions, was 8.6 times shareholders’ equity as of March 31, 2026. We include 100% of the cost basis of our TBA securities in evaluating our leverage because it is possible under certain market conditions that it may be uneconomical for us to roll a TBA long position into future months, which may result in us having to take physical delivery of the underlying securities and use cash or other financing sources to fund our total purchase commitment.

Repurchase Agreements

Leverage based solely on repurchase agreement amounts outstanding was 67.07 times shareholders’ equity as of ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2025~~2026. Our repurchase agreement borrowings are uncommitted with terms renewable at the discretion of our lenders and generally have original terms to maturity of overnight to six months, though in some instances, we may enter into longer-dated maturities depending on market conditions. We seek to maintain unused capacity under our existing repurchase agreement credit lines with multiple counterparties, which helps protect us in the event of a counterparty's failure to renew existing repurchase agreements. As part of our continuous evaluation of counterparty risk, we maintain our highest counterparty exposures with broker-dealer subsidiaries of regulated financial institutions or primary dealers.

the event of a counterparty's failure to renew existing repurchase agreements. As part of our continuous evaluation of counterparty risk, we maintain our highest counterparty exposures with broker-dealer subsidiaries of regulated financial institutions or primary dealers.

The amount outstanding for our repurchase agreement borrowings will typically fluctuate in any given period as it is dependent upon several factors, but particularly the extent to which we are active in buying and selling securities, including the volume of activity in TBA dollar roll transactions versus buying specified pools. The following table presents information regarding the balances of our repurchase agreement borrowings as of and for the periods indicated:

For our repurchase agreement borrowings, we are required to post and maintain margin to the lender (i.e., collateral in excess of the repurchase agreement borrowing) in order to support the amount of the financing. This excess collateral is often referred to as a “haircut” and is intended to provide the lender protection against fluctuations in the fair value of the collateral and/or the failure by us to repay the borrowing at maturity. Lenders have the right to change haircut requirements at maturity of the repurchase agreement and may change their haircuts based on market conditions and the perceived riskiness of the collateral pledged. If the fair value of the collateral falls below the amount required by the lender, the lender has the right to demand additional margin or collateral. ~~These~~If ~~demands are referred to as “margin calls,” and if~~ we fail to meet any margin call, our lenders have the right to terminate the repurchase agreement and sell any collateral pledged. The weighted average haircut for our borrowings as of ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2025~~2026, was consistent with prior periods, typically averaging less than 5% for borrowings collateralized with Agency RMBS and CMBS and between 10-14% for borrowings collateralized with CMBS IO.

The collateral we post in excess of our repurchase agreement borrowing with any counterparty is also typically referred to by us as “equity at risk,” which represents the potential loss to the Company if the counterparty is unable or unwilling to return collateral securing the repurchase agreement borrowing at its maturity. The counterparties with whom we have the greatest amounts of equity at risk may vary significantly during any given period due to the short-term and uncommitted nature of the repurchase agreement borrowings. As of ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2025~~2026, we had amounts outstanding ~~under~~with 28over ~~different~~25 ~~repurchase~~counterparties ~~agreements~~ and did not have more than 10% of equity at risk with any counterparty or group of related counterparties.

We have various financial and operating covenants in certain of our repurchase agreements, which we monitor and evaluate on an ongoing basis for compliance as well as for impacts these customary covenants may have on our operating and financing flexibility. We do not believe we are subject to any covenants that materially restrict our financing flexibility. We were in full compliance with our debt covenants as of ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2025~~2026, and we are not aware of circumstances that could potentially result in our non-compliance in the near future.

Derivative Instruments

Derivative instruments we enter into may require us to post initial margin at inception and daily variation margin based on subsequent changes in their fair value. Daily variation margin requirements also entitle us to receive collateral from our counterparties if the value of amounts owed to us under the derivative agreement exceeds the minimum margin requirement. The collateral posted as margin by us is typically in cash. As of March 31, 2026, we had cash collateral posted to our counterparties of $517 million under these agreements.

Collateral requirements for interest rate derivative instruments are typically governed by the ~~minimum~~central clearing exchange and the associated futures commission merchant, which may establish margin ~~requirement~~requirements in excess of the clearing exchange. ~~The~~Collateral ~~collateral~~requirements ~~posted~~for asour ~~margin~~TBA contracts are governed by usthe isMortgage-Backed ~~typically~~Securities Division (“MBSD”) of the Fixed Income Clearing Corporation and, if applicable, by our third-party brokerage agreements, which may establish margin levels in ~~cash~~excess of the MBSD.

(1)Net periodic interest from our effective interest rate swaps is recognized as income or expense during the period earned or incurred, but the cash is not received or paid until the anniversary of each agreement’s effective date or upon maturity.

Dividends

We set our dividend based on many factors, including our view on long-term returns, yield on comparable investments, liquidity and market risk, and ~~levels of~~ taxable income. Among these factors, we focus on economic returns and taxable income within the context of the distribution requirements. As a REIT, we are required to distribute to our shareholders amounts equal to at least 90% of our REIT taxable income for each taxable year after certain deductions, including the separate dividend requirements of the Series C Preferred Stock.

We designate certain derivative instruments as interest rate hedges for tax purposes. Realized gains (losses) resulting from the difference in fair value and the amount of cash received or paid upon termination or maturity of designated derivative instruments are included in GAAP earnings in the same reporting period in which the derivative instrument matures or is terminated by the Company but are generally not recognized in REIT taxable income until future periods. Non-designated derivative instruments are included in GAAP earnings and REIT taxable income in the same period the derivative instrument matures or is terminated by the Company. The table below provides the projected amortization of the Company's net deferred tax hedge gains that may be recognized as taxable income over the periods indicated, given conditions known as of March 31, 2026; however, uncertainty inherent in the forward interest rate curve makes future realized gains and losses difficult to estimate, and as such, these projections are subject to change for any given period.

As of March 31, 2026, we also had $487 million in capital loss carryforwards, $305 million of which will expire by December 31, 2027 and the remainder by December 31, 2028. Due to these amounts and other temporary and permanent differences between GAAP net income and REIT taxable income, coupled with the uncertainty inherent in the forward interest rate curve, we cannot reasonably estimate how much the deferred tax hedge gains to be recognized will impact our dividend declarations during 2026 or in any given period.

We generally fund dividend distributions through portfolio cash flows. If we make dividend distributions in excess of our portfolio cash flows during the period, whether for purposes of meeting our REIT distribution requirements or other reasons, those distributions are generally funded either through our existing cash balances or through the return of principal from our investments (either through repayment or sale).

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

Please refer to Note 1 of the Notes to the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements contained within Part III, Item 81 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based in large part upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of our consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We base these estimates and judgments on historical experience and assumptions believed to be reasonable under current facts and circumstances. Actual results may differ from the estimated amounts we have recorded.

Critical accounting estimates are defined as those that require management's most difficult, subjective, or complex judgments, and which may result in materially different results under different assumptions and conditions. Our critical accounting estimates are discussed in Part II, Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” of our 2024 Form 10-K under “Critical Accounting Estimates.” There have been no significant changes in our critical accounting estimates during the three months ended September 30, 2025

Our critical accounting estimates are discussed in Part II, Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” of our 2025 Form 10-K under “Critical Accounting Estimates.” There have been no significant changes in our critical accounting estimates during the three months ended March 31, 2026.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Certain written statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that are not historical facts constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Statements in this report addressing expectations, assumptions, beliefs, projections, future plans and strategies, future events, developments that we expect or anticipate will occur in the future, and future operating results, capital management, and dividend policy are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are based upon management’s beliefs, assumptions, and expectations as of the date of this report regarding future events and operating performance, considering all information currently available to us, and are applicable only as of the date of this report. Forward-looking statements generally can be identified by the use of words such as “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “plan,” “may,” “will,” “intend,” “should,” “could,” or similar expressions. We caution readers not to place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements, which are not historical facts and may be based on projections, assumptions, expectations, and anticipated events that do not materialize. Except as required by law, we are not obligated to, and do not intend to, update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.

Forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from historical results or from any results expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Not all these risks and other factors are known to us. New risks and uncertainties arise over time, and it is not possible to predict those events or how they may affect us. The projections, assumptions, expectations, or beliefs upon which the forward-looking statements are based can also change as a result of these risks or other factors. If such a risk or other factor materializes in future periods, our business, financial condition, liquidity, and results of operations may vary materially from those expressed or implied in our forward-looking statements.

While it is not possible to identify all factors that may cause actual results to differ from historical results or any results expressed or implied by forward-looking statements or that may cause our projections, assumptions, expectations, or beliefs to change, some of those factors include the following:

•the risks and uncertainties referenced in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, especially those incorporated by reference into Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors,”

•our ability to find suitable reinvestment opportunities;

•changes in domestic economic conditions;

•geopolitical events, ~~such as terrorism, war, or other military conflict, including the war between Russia~~ and ~~Ukraine~~instability and the ~~conflict in the Middle East, and the~~ related impact on macroeconomic conditions as a result of such ~~conflict~~related uncertainty;

•tariffs that the U.S. imposes on trading partners or tariffs imposed on the U.S. from trading partners;

•global and domestic government policy changes and the ability or inability to react to rapidly changing ~~global~~ economic policies;

•our investment portfolio performance, particularly as it relates to cash flow, prepayment rates, and credit performance;

•the impact on markets and asset prices from changes in the Federal Reserve’s policies regarding the purchases of Agency RMBS, Agency CMBS, and U.S. Treasuries;

•actual or anticipated changes in Federal Reserve monetary policy or the monetary policy of other central banks;

•adverse reactions in U.S. financial markets related to actions of foreign central banks or the economic performance of foreign economies, including in particular China, Japan, the European Union, and the United Kingdom;

~~•uncertainty concerning the long-term fiscal health and stability of the United States;~~ 28

•the cost and availability of financing, including the future availability of financing due to changes to regulation of, and capital requirements imposed upon, financial institutions;

•the cost and availability of new equity capital;

•changes in our leverage and use of leverage;

•changes to our investment strategy, operating policies, dividend policy, or asset allocations;

•the quality of performance of third-party service providers, including our sole third-party service provider for our critical operations and trade functions;

•the loss or unavailability of our third-party service provider’s service and technology that supports critical functions of our business related to our trading and borrowing activities due to outages, interruptions, or other failures;

Regulation FD Disclosures

We routinely announce material information to investors and the marketplace using filings with the SEC, press releases, public conference calls, presentations, webcasts, and the investor relations page of our website at www.dynexcapital.com/investors and our LinkedIn page. We use these channels for purposes of compliance with Regulation FD and as routine channels for distribution of important information. While not all of the information that we post to the investor relations page of our website or to our LinkedIn page is of a material nature, some information could be deemed to be material. Accordingly, investors should monitor these channels, in addition to following our press releases, SEC filings, and public conference calls and webcasts. The web addresses are included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q as textual references only and the information posted on these channels are not incorporated by reference in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q or in any other report or document we file with the SEC.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Market risk is the exposure to losses resulting from changes in market factors. Our business strategy exposes us to a variety of market risks, including interest rate, spread, prepayment, credit, liquidity, and reinvestment risks. These risks can and do cause fluctuations in our liquidity, comprehensive income and book value ~~as discussed below.~~

as discussed below.

Interest Rate Risk

Investing in interest-rate sensitive investments such as MBS and TBA securities subjects us to interest rate risk. Interest rate risk results from investing in securities with a fixed coupon or a floating coupon that may not immediately adjust for changes in interest rates. Interest rate risk also results from the mismatch between the duration of our assets versus the duration of our liabilities and hedges. The amount of the impact will depend on the composition of our portfolio, our hedging strategy, the effectiveness of our hedging instruments and the magnitude and duration of the change in interest rates.

We manage interest rate risk within tolerances set by our Board of Directors. We use interest rate hedging instruments to mitigate the impact of changing interest rates on the market value of our assets and on our interest expense from repurchase agreements used to finance our investments. Our hedging methods are based on many factors, including, but not limited to, our estimates regarding future interest rates and expected levels of prepayments of our assets. If prepayments are slower or faster than assumed, the maturity of our investments will also differ from our expectations, which could reduce the effectiveness of our hedging strategies and may cause losses that adversely affect our cash flow. Estimates of prepayment speeds can vary significantly by investor for the same security, and therefore, estimates of security and portfolio duration can vary considerably between market participants.

We continuously monitor market conditions, economic conditions, interest rates, and other market activity and adjust the composition of our investments and hedges throughout any given period. As such, the projections for changes in market value provided below are limited in usefulness because the modeling assumes no changes to the composition of our investment portfolio or hedging instruments as of the dates indicated. Changes in the types of our investments, the returns earned on these investments, future interest rates, credit spreads, the shape of the yield curve, the availability of financing, and/or the mix of our investments and financings, including derivative instruments, may cause actual results to differ significantly from the modeled results shown in the tables below. Therefore, the modeled results shown in the tables below and all related disclosures constitute forward-looking statements.

Management evaluates changes in interest rate curves to manage portfolio interest rate risk and the market value of its investments and common equity. Because interest rates do not typically move in a parallel fashion from period to period (as can be seen by the graph for U.S. Treasury rates in Item 2, “Executive Overview”), the tables below show the projected sensitivity of the market value of our financial instruments and common equity to both parallel and non-parallel shifts in market interest rates.

The projections for market value do not assume any change in credit spreads.

3331

Spread Risk

Spread risk is the risk of loss from an increase in the market spread between the yield on an investment versus its benchmark index. Changes in market spreads represent the market's valuation of the perceived riskiness of an asset relative to risk-free rates. Widening spreads reduce the market value of our investments as market participants require additional yield to hold riskier assets. Market spreads could change based on macroeconomic or systemic factors as well as the factors specific to a particular security, such as prepayment performance or credit performance. Other factors that could impact credit spreads include technical issues, such as supply and demand for a particular type of security, or Federal Reserve monetary policy, or other governmental policy change. We do not hedge spread risk given the cost and complexity of hedging credit spreads and, in our opinion, the lack of liquid instruments available to use as hedges.

Fluctuations in spreads typically vary based on the type of investment. Sensitivity to changes in market spreads is derived from models that are dependent on various assumptions, and actual changes in market value in response to changes in market spreads could differ materially from the projected sensitivity if actual conditions differ from these assumptions.

The table below shows the projected sensitivity of the market value of our investments given the indicated change in market spreads as of the dates indicated:

	September 30, 2025				December 31, 2024
	March 31, 2026				December 31, 2025
