Atlanta – April 23, 2010 – Invesco Mortgage Capital Inc. (NYSE: IVR) (the “Company”) today announced preliminary estimates of its earnings per share for the first quarter of 2010 and its book value as of March 31, 2010. The Company currently expects its earnings per share for the quarter ended March 31, 2010 to be approximately $0.77 and its book value as of March 31, 2010 to be approximately $20.26 per share, as compared to earnings per share for the quarter ended December 31, 2009 of $1.02 and a book value of $20.39 as of December 31, 2009.

The change in earnings per share is primarily attributed to fewer sales of securities within the Company’s portfolio in the first quarter of 2010 and the impact on net interest income related to deploying capital from the Company’s January 2010 follow-on public offering. The change in book value from December 31, 2009 to March 31, 2010 is principally attributable to modification of the mix of the Company’s portfolio of mortgage-backed securities, changes in the valuation of its portfolio, net income, and the impact of the dividend declared in the first quarter of 2010.

This preliminary estimate of the Company’s expected book value per share and estimated earnings per share are subject to revision as the Company prepares its interim financial statements, including all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, or U.S. GAAP, as of and for the quarter ended March 31, 2010 and as the Company's auditors conduct their review of these interim financial statements. Factors that could cause the preliminary estimates to differ include, but are not limited to: (i) additional adjustments in the calculation of financial results for, or book value as of the quarter end date, or the application of accounting principles, (ii) discovery of new information that alters expectations about first quarter results or impacts valuation methodologies underlying these results, (iii) errors in the assessment of portfolio value, and (iv) accounting changes required by U.S. GAAP.
