Dynex Capital, Inc. (US26817Q8868) completed a preferred stock offering on September 29, 2026, issuing 4.80 million Series D shares. The 9.375 percent fixed-rate preferred stock has a USD 25.00 liquidation preference and ranks ahead of the company's common stock for dividends and liquidation claims, according to Dynex Capital.

Offering adds preferred capital

The issue followed an underwriting agreement dated September 22, 2026, covering 4.80 million shares and a 30-day option for another 720,000 shares. The preferred dividend is cumulative and payable quarterly when declared, with payments scheduled to begin on January 15, 2027, under the terms filed by the company.

The capital raise changes the funding mix for the mortgage real estate investment trust. Series D dividends are senior to common-stock dividends, while the preferred securities remain junior to the company's existing and future debt, a structure that increases the fixed distribution burden before common shareholders receive capital.

Quarterly revenue sets the scale

MarketBeat reported that Dynex Capital posted USD 0.36 earnings per share and USD 302.75 million in revenue for the quarter reported on July 20, 2026. Revenue exceeded the cited USD 103.62 million estimate, while earnings per share matched the USD 0.36 consensus figure.

The same report listed a monthly common-stock dividend of USD 0.17, equivalent to USD 2.04 on an annualized basis and an 18.60 percent yield. That distribution remains a key counterweight to the added preferred-stock obligation, although the two securities have different claims and payment schedules.

What the offering means

The Series D terms provide a defined 9.375 percent annual distribution but also place preferred payments ahead of common-stock distributions. For investors assessing Dynex Capital stock, the relevant comparison is the new preferred funding against the company's quarterly revenue base of USD 302.75 million and its recurring common dividend of USD 0.17 per month.

Market value and trading context

Dynex Capital had a market capitalization of USD 2.7 billion and a 52-week range of USD 10.88 to USD 14.93 as of October 2, 2026. The NYSE-listed mortgage REIT invests primarily in residential and commercial mortgage-backed securities, with financing costs and asset spreads central to its earnings profile.
