- Orchid Island Capital, Inc. (NYSE: ORC) is a specialty finance company and mortgage real estate investment trust (REIT) that invests primarily in residential mortgage-backed securities (RMBS), including traditional pass-through Agency RMBS such as mortgage pass-through certificates and collateralized mortgage obligations issued or guaranteed by the Federal National Mortgage Association (Fannie Mae), Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (Freddie Mac), or Government National Mortgage Association (Ginnie Mae); and structured Agency RMBS comprising interest-only securities, inverse interest-only securities, principal-only securities, and other similar instruments, all backed by single-family residential mortgage loans. The company, founded in 2010 and headquartered in Vero Beach, Florida, operates exclusively in the United States, utilizing leverage through repurchase agreements with multiple counterparties including J.P.

Externally managed by Bimini Advisors, LLC, Orchid Island Capital seeks to deliver attractive risk-adjusted total returns to shareholders through capital appreciation and monthly dividends, with 167.8 million common shares outstanding as of November 2025 and a recent monthly dividend declaration of $0.12 per share payable December 30, 2025. Recent developments include the establishment in October 2025 of a $500 million at-the-market equity distribution program with sales agents such as J.P.
