DYNEX CAPITAL, INC. REPORTS
THIRD QUARTER 2016 RESULTS

GLEN ALLEN, Va. -- Dynex Capital, Inc. (NYSE: DX) reported its third quarter 2016 results today. As previously announced, the Company's quarterly conference call to discuss these results is today at 9:00 a.m. Eastern Time and may be accessed using conference ID 96293061 via telephone in the U.S. at 1-866-392-3507 (internationally at 1-614-999-9383) or by live webcast which includes a slide presentation, the link for which is provided under “Investor Center” on the Company's website (www.dynexcapital.com).

Comprehensive income of $0.27 per common share comprised of net income to common shareholders of $0.25 per common share and other comprehensive income of $0.02 per common share
Core net operating income per common share, a non-GAAP measure, of $0.20
Net interest spread of 1.90% and adjusted net interest spread, a non-GAAP measure, of 1.87%
Book value per common share of $7.76 at September 30, 2016, an increase of $0.07 from June 30, 2016 book value per common share of $7.69
Leverage of 5.8x shareholders' equity at September 30, 2016 versus 6.1x shareholders equity at June 30, 2016
Dividend declared of $0.21 per common share
Earnings Summary
Comprehensive income to common shareholders was $13.1 million for the third quarter of 2016 versus $17.4 million for the second quarter of 2016. The majority of comprehensive income to common shareholders for the third quarter of 2016 consisted of net income to common shareholders of $12.4 million compared to a net loss to common shareholders of $(5.5) million for the previous quarter. The change in net income to common shareholders for the third quarter versus the second quarter was primarily due to the following:
a decline of $(1.7) million in interest income compared to the previous quarter, $0.7 million of which resulted from the declining investment portfolio balance with the remaining decline of $1.0 million primarily related to an increase in prepayments on RMBS; and
net gain on derivative instruments of $2.4 million compared to a net loss of $(16.3) million for the previous quarter due to interest rates increasing during the third quarter of 2016.

1


The remainder of the Company's comprehensive income to common shareholders for the third quarter of 2016 resulted primarily from a net increase in fair value of MBS of $0.8 million recognized in other comprehensive income compared to $23.0 million for the second quarter of 2016. Fair value of MBS in the second quarter benefited from the lower interest rate environment which largely reversed in the third quarter of 2016. Offsetting higher interest rates in the third quarter were tighter credit spreads, particularly CMBS.
Core net operating income to common shareholders, a non-GAAP measure, was $9.7 million, or $0.20 per common share, for the third quarter of 2016 compared to $10.5 million, or $0.21 per common share, for the previous quarter. Core net operating income to common shareholders for the third quarter of 2016 was impacted by the decline of $(1.7) million in interest income compared to the previous quarter as discussed above, partially offset by a decline of $0.3 million in net periodic interest costs due to a reduction in the average notional balance and average net pay-fixed rate of interest rate swaps due to terminations earlier in the year, and the decline in general and administrative costs of $0.3 million compared to the previous quarter.
Net interest spread decreased 4 basis points to 1.90% for the third quarter of 2016 from 1.94% for the second quarter of 2016 due to a decline of 2 basis points in the effective yield earned on investments and an increase of 2 basis points in cost of funds. The effective yield declined to 2.75% for the third quarter of 2016 compared to 2.77% for the previous quarter primarily due to an increase in premium amortization on Agency RMBS as a result of higher prepayment speeds. Cost of funds increased to 0.85% for the third quarter of 2016 compared to 0.83% for the previous quarter due to higher borrowing rates on repurchase agreements primarily due to increases in short-term interest rates. Adjusted net interest spread, a non-GAAP measure, remained steady at 1.87% for the third quarter of 2016 compared to the prior quarter because lower net periodic interest costs from effective interest rate swaps offset the decrease in effective yield on investments and the increase in borrowing rates on repurchase agreements.
Book Value per Common Share
During the third quarter of 2016, book value per common share increased to $7.76 at September 30, 2016 from $7.69 at June 30, 2016. The increase in book value per common share of $0.07 during the third quarter was driven primarily by an increase in the fair value of derivatives of $2.6 million, or $0.06 per share, due to higher interest rates during the quarter. Economic return on book value was 3.6% for the third quarter of 2016 (calculated by dividing the sum of dividends declared of $0.21 and the $0.07 increase in book value per common share by third quarter's beginning book value of $7.69) and 8.8% for the first nine months of 2016.

The decline in the Company's overall leverage to 5.8x at September 30, 2016 compared to 6.1x at June 30, 2016 and 6.5x at December 31, 2015 is primarily the result of a declining balance of borrowings over the past nine months. The Company has been using the majority of proceeds from principal payments and sales of MBS to reduce our borrowings and to build our liquidity in lieu of reinvesting into new investments.
The weighted average original term to maturity for the Company's repurchase agreements was 58 days at September 30, 2016 compared to 67 days at December 31, 2015. The weighted average remaining term to maturity was 18 days at September 30, 2016 versus 22 days at December 31, 2015.
Hedging Activities
The Company's hedging position as of September 30, 2016 remained unchanged from June 30, 2016.

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 cost of funds, adjusted net interest income, and adjusted net interest spread. Schedules reconciling these non-GAAP financial measures to GAAP are provided as a supplement to this release. Management uses core net operating income (including per common share) as an estimate of the net interest earnings from our investments after operating expenses. In connection with core net operating income, management uses adjusted interest expense, adjusted cost of funds, adjusted net interest income, and adjusted net interest spread because management considers net periodic interest costs related to the Company's derivative instruments as an additional cost of using repurchase agreements to finance investments. 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 even though peer companies may present non-GAAP measures on a different basis than the Company's. Because these non-GAAP financial measures exclude certain items used to compute GAAP net income to common shareholders and GAAP interest expense, 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. In addition, because not all companies use identical calculations, the Company's presentation of its non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to other similarly-titled measures of other companies.

The Company's actual results and timing of certain events could differ materially from those projected in or contemplated by the forward-looking statements as a result of unforeseen external factors.
