Glen Allen, Va. – Dynex Capital Inc. (DX), the mortgage real‑estate investment trust headquartered in Glen Allen, released its third‑quarter earnings on Monday. The company reported a net loss of $335.5 million, translating to a loss of $1.34 per share.
Adjusted earnings show modest profit
When non‑recurring costs are stripped out, Dynex posted adjusted earnings of 38 cents per share. The adjustment highlights that the core mortgage‑backed‑securities portfolio generated a small profit despite the overall loss.
Revenue figures

Context for investors
Dynex Capital operates as a mortgage REIT, a sector that has faced volatility due to shifting interest‑rate environments and changing mortgage‑backed‑securities valuations. While the headline loss is sizable, the adjusted earnings per share suggest that the underlying business model remains capable of generating positive cash flow when extraordinary items are excluded.
Management’s outlook
Company executives emphasized that the loss was driven primarily by accounting adjustments and that the firm continues to focus on disciplined underwriting and portfolio diversification. They indicated confidence that future quarters will see improved profitability as the market stabilizes and the REIT’s capital structure is optimized.
