Vero Beach, Fla., December 11, 2013 - Orchid Island Capital, Inc. (the “Company”) (NYSE MKT:ORC) announced that today the Board of Directors declared a monthly cash dividend for the month of December 2013. The dividend of $0.18 per share will be paid December 30, 2013, to holders of record on December 26, 2013, with an ex-dividend date of December 23, 2013. Based on year to date distributions, inclusive of the December distribution, and the Company’s projected taxable income that will be earned through December 31, 2013, the Company anticipates it will have distributed to shareholders substantially all of its taxable income for the three and twelve month periods ended December 31, 2013. Projected taxable income through December 31, 2013 is based on management estimates only, and actual taxable income for the three and twelve month periods ended December 31, 2013, may differ.
The Company intends to make regular monthly cash distributions to its stockholders. In order to qualify as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) the Company must distribute annually to its stockholders an amount at least equal to 90% of its REIT taxable income, determined without regard to the deduction for dividends paid and excluding any net capital gain. The Company will be subject to income tax on taxable income that is not distributed and to an excise tax to the extent that certain percentages 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.
MBS Portfolio Characteristics
Details of the MBS portfolio as of November 29, 2013 are presented below. These figures are preliminary and subject to change. The information contained herein is an intra-quarter update created by the Company based upon information that the Company believes is accurate.
