Atlanta – July 22, 2009 -- Invesco Mortgage Capital Inc. (NYSE:IVR) (the “Company”) today announced that it has substantially completed the deployment of the capital that it raised in its initial public offering, which closed on July 1, 2009. In addition, the company announced the composition of its initial portfolio.

As of July 17, 2009, the Company had acquired an aggregate portfolio of $829.4 million, comprised of $711.9 million in agency residential mortgage-backed securities (“RMBS”), $67.8 million in non-agency RMBS and $49.7 million in commercial mortgage-backed securities (“CMBS”). The Company also has entered into repurchase agreements totalling $630.6 million, secured by $669.7 million in agency RMBS, and has applied for $41.2 million in financing under the Federal Reserve’s Term Asset-Backed Securities Lending Facility (“TALF”) secured by $49.7 million in CMBS.

“We are excited about our progress during the first three weeks of operations. We believe that the portfolio we assembled demonstrates our ability to acquire and finance our targeted assets,” said Richard King, Chief Executive Officer. “Our strategy was to place approximately half of our equity in non-agency RMBS that provide an attractive return while working to mitigate downside risk. In addition, we acquired agency RMBS that we expect will provide returns similar to our non-agency RMBS when financed with repurchase agreements, and CMBS to be financed under TALF. We also continue to explore opportunities provided under the Public-Private Investment Program that would be managed by Invesco Institutional (N.A.), Inc.”
