In January 2022, the Company announced that its Board authorized the repurchase of up to $1.5 billion of its outstanding shares of common stock through December 31, 2024 (the “Prior Common Stock Repurchase Program”). In January 2025, the Company announced that its Board authorized the repurchase of up to $1.5 billion of its outstanding shares of common stock through December 31, 2029 (the “Current Common Stock Repurchase Program”). The Current Common Stock Repurchase Program replaced the Prior Common Stock Repurchase Program. During the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, no shares were repurchased under the Current Common Stock Repurchase Program or the Prior Common Stock Repurchase Program, respectively.
On September 20, 2024, the Company entered into separate Distribution Agency Agreements (collectively, the “Prior Sales Agreements”) with each of Barclays Capital Inc., BNP Paribas Securities Corp., BofA Securities, Inc., Citizens JMP Securities, LLC, Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, Keefe, Bruyette & Woods, Inc., Morgan Stanley & Co., LLC, RBC Capital Markets, LLC, UBS Securities LLC and Wells Fargo Securities, LLC (collectively, the “Prior Sales Agents”). Under the terms of the Prior Sales Agreements, the Company offered and sold shares of its common stock, having an aggregate offering price of up to $1.5 billion, from time to time through any of the Prior Sales Agents (the “at-the-market sales program”).
During the three months ended March 31, 2025, under the at-the-market sales program, the Company issued 23.3 million shares for proceeds of $495.7 million, net of commissions and fees. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, no shares were issued under the at-the-market sales program pursuant to the Prior Sales Agreements; however, the Company incurred costs to maintain the effectiveness of the at-the-market sales program that was in effect at that time.

(1) Subject to the Company’s right under limited circumstances to redeem preferred stock earlier in order to preserve its qualification as a REIT or under limited circumstances related to a change in control of the Company.
(2) For each series of fixed-to-floating rate cumulative redeemable preferred stock, the floating rate is calculated as 3-month CME Term SOFR (plus a spread adjustment of 0.26161%) plus the spread specified in the prospectus.
Each series of preferred stock has a par value of $0.01 per share and a liquidation and redemption price of $25.00, plus accrued and unpaid dividends through their redemption date. Through March 31, 2025, the Company had declared and paid all required quarterly dividends on the Company’s preferred stock.
The Series F Fixed-to-Floating Rate Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock, Series G Fixed-to-Floating Rate Cumulative Preferred Stock and Series I Fixed-to-Floating Rate Cumulative Preferred Stock rank senior to the common stock of the Company.
On December 31, 2024, the Board approved a repurchase plan for all of our existing outstanding Preferred Stock (as defined below) (the “Preferred Stock Repurchase Program”). Under the terms of the Preferred Stock Repurchase Program, we are authorized to repurchase up to an aggregate of 63,500,000 shares of Preferred Stock, comprised of up to (i) 28,800,000 shares
of its 6.95% Series F Fixed-to-Floating Rate Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Series F Preferred Stock”), (ii) 17,000,000 shares of its 6.50% Series G Fixed-to-Floating Rate Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Series G Preferred Stock”), and (iii) 17,700,000 shares of its 6.75% Series I Fixed-to-Floating Rate Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Series I Preferred Stock”, and together with Series F Preferred Stock and Series G Preferred Stock, the “Preferred Stock”). The aggregate liquidation value of the Preferred Stock that may be repurchased by the Company pursuant to the Prior Preferred Stock Repurchase Program, as of November 3, 2022, was approximately $1.6 billion.

The Preferred Stock Repurchase Program became effective on January 1, 2025 and will expire on December 31, 2029, and replaced the Preferred Stock repurchase program, which was effective from November 2, 2022 and expired on December 31, 2024 (the “Prior Preferred Stock Repurchase Program”). No shares were repurchased with respect to the Preferred Stock Repurchase Program during the three months ended March 31, 2025 and the Prior Preferred Stock Repurchase Program during the three months ended March 31, 2024.
