- Chimera Investment Corporation is an internally managed real estate investment trust (REIT) founded in 2007 and headquartered in New York City. The company specializes in investing in a diversified portfolio of mortgage-related assets, including residential mortgage loans, agency and non-agency residential mortgage-backed securities (RMBS), commercial mortgage-backed securities (CMBS), business purpose and investor loans, residential transition loans, and other real estate-related securities. Through securitization and leverage, Chimera aims to create long-term value for shareholders by maintaining flexibility in portfolio allocation and liability management. Chimera serves primarily the United States market and targets homeowners, residential property investors, commercial property owners, and investors seeking a range of mortgage-related investment products. Its core business segments include direct investments in mortgage loans and securities and third-party investment management and advisory services. The company focuses on generating stable and sustainable returns through active portfolio management, rigorous risk evaluation, and capital structure optimization. Recent major developments include the strategic acquisition of HomeXpress Mortgage Corporation, a leading non-QM and investor business purpose mortgage originator based in Santa Ana, California. HomeXpress operates as a subsidiary under Chimera's taxable REIT subsidiary, Chimera Funding TRS, with its current management team retained. This acquisition advances Chimera's transition toward a diversified hybrid residential mortgage REIT. Additionally, Chimera completed a $120 million senior notes offering in 2025 to strengthen its financial position, bearing an 8.875% interest rate maturing in 2030. Overall, Chimera Investment Corporation operates with a strategy to balance investments across a broad mortgage asset base, including agency RMBS, non-agency RMBS, mortgage loans, and commercial mortgage-backed securities, leveraging securitization and debt financing to enhance returns. The company's evolution includes expanding third-party advisory businesses and portfolio diversification to improve resilience and adaptability in a volatile market environment, positioning Chimera as a leading specialty finance company in the mortgage REIT sector. Chimera is publicly traded on the NYSE under the ticker CIM, following its 2007 IPO, and maintains regulatory compliance as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, distributing the majority of its taxable income as dividends to shareholders. The company is led by CEO Phillip Kardis II and continues to execute on its mission to provide attractive risk-adjusted returns through active asset management and strategic acquisitions.
