Eagle Point Income Company Inc. Announces Third Quarter 2025 Financial Results, First Quarter 2026 Distributions and Full Redemption of 7.75% Series B Term Preferred Stock
GREENWICH, Conn. --(BUSINESS WIRE)
Eagle Point Income Company Inc. (the “Company”) (NYSE: EIC, EICA, EICB, EICC) today announced financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2025 and certain additional activity through October 31, 2025, declared distributions on shares of the Company’s common and preferred stock and announced the full redemption of the Company’s 7.75% Series B Term Preferred Stock.
“EIC had a positive quarter, with NII fully covering our distributions and our NAV per share increasing,” said Thomas P. Majewski, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “We remain committed to aggressively repurchasing our common shares, which we believe are undervalued by the market. We increased the Company’s common stock repurchase program to $60 million, which gives us more room to continue our buyback program and help further increase NAV per share.”
“Earlier today, we also announced the full redemption of our 7.75% Series B Term Preferred Stock. In light of recent Fed rate cuts, this redemption enables us to further optimize our capital structure and reduce financing costs,” added Mr. Majewski. “We also declared monthly distributions of $0.11 per share for the first quarter of 2026. This is a lower distribution level than last quarter and reflects the impact of two rate cuts over the past ninety days.”
“We remain proactive in managing our portfolio, with a focus on generating strong cash flows from investments and net investment income, and believe the Company remains well positioned to continue generating compelling risk-adjusted returns for our shareholders over the long term,” concluded Mr. Majewski.

FIRST QUARTER 2026 DISTRIBUTIONS
The Company has declared three separate monthly distributions of $0.11 per share on its common stock for the first quarter of 2026.5 The following schedule applies to the distributions:
Amount per Common Share | Record Date | Payable Date |
$0.11 | January 12, 2026 | January 30, 2026 |
$0.11 | February 9, 2026 | February 27, 2026 |
$0.11 | March 11, 2026 | March 31, 2026 |
The Company evaluates its ongoing common stock distributions based on a number of factors, including recurring cash flows generated from the Company’s investment portfolio, GAAP earnings and the Company’s requirement to distribute substantially all of its taxable income.
The Company also announced the declaration of distributions on shares of the Company’s 5.00% Series A Term Preferred Shares due 2026 (the “Series A Term Preferred Stock”) and 8.00% Series C Term Preferred Stock due 2029 (the “Series C Term Preferred Stock”) as follows:
Preferred Stock Type | Amount per Share | Record Dates | Payable Dates |
Series A Term Preferred Stock | $0.104167 | January 12, 2026 February 9, 2026 March 11, 2026 | January 30, 2026 February 27, 2026 March 31, 2026 |
Series C Term Preferred Stock | $0.166667 |
The distributions on the Series A Term Preferred Stock and Series C Term Preferred Stock reflect an annual distribution rate of 5.00% and 8.00%, respectively, of the $25 liquidation preference per share. Given the planned redemption of all outstanding shares of the 7.75% Series B Term Preferred Stock due 2028 (the “Series B Term Preferred Stock”), the Company is not declaring any further distributions on the Series B Term Preferred Stock.
SHARE REPURCHASE PROGRAM
The Company’s Board of Directors has authorized an increase in the Company’s existing open market common stock repurchase program from $50 million to $60 million, inclusive of prior repurchases. Following repurchases made through October 31, 2025, approximately $27.2 million remains available under the increased authorization.
The repurchase program will remain in effect until June 9, 2026, unless otherwise extended or earlier discontinued. The timing, manner, price and amount of any repurchases will depend on the Company’s stock price, market conditions, applicable legal requirements and other factors. The repurchase program does not require the Company to repurchase common stock, and the program may be suspended, extended, modified or discontinued at any time.
REDEMPTION OF SERIES B TERM PREFERRED STOCK
The Company has also announced that it will redeem all outstanding shares of its 7.75% Series B Term Preferred Stock due 2028 (NYSE: EICB) on December 29, 2025. The redemption price of the Series B Term Preferred Stock will be $25 per share. This redemption reflects the Company’s ongoing efforts to optimize its capital structure and reduce financing costs.
All shares of the Series B Term Preferred Stock are held in book-entry form through The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) and will be redeemed in accordance with the procedures of DTC. Payment to DTC for the shares of Series B Term Preferred Stock will be made by Equiniti Trust Company, LLC (the “Redemption Agent”). From and after the redemption date, the Series B Term Preferred Stock will no longer be deemed outstanding, dividends will cease to accumulate and all the rights of the holders of such shares will cease, except the right to receive the applicable redemption price. The previously declared dividends payable on November 28, 2025, and December 31, 2025, to holders of Series B Term Preferred Stock of record as of November 10, 2025, and December 11, 2025, respectively, will be paid in cash on the applicable payment date and not as part of the Series B Term Preferred Stock redemption price.
