ARMOUR is an externally managed Maryland corporation incorporated in 2008. The Company is managed by ACM, an investment advisor registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") (which registration the Company provides notice of to the state of Florida) (see Note 8 and Note 14 to the consolidated financial statements). We have elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust ("REIT") under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). We believe that we are organized in conformity with the requirements for qualification as a REIT under the Code and our manner of operations enables us to meet the requirements for taxation as a REIT for federal income tax purposes (See Real Estate Investment Trust Requirements section below).3 From its latest annual report

Risk factors and legal proceedings
The risks Armour Residential REIT, Inc. names in Item 1A of its 10-K filed Feb 18, 2026: 66 risks under these headings, as written.3
- Changes in interest rates impact our level of net interest income, total comprehensive income (loss) and stockholders' equity and we cannot always successfully mitigate such interest rate risks.
- Volatility in the relationships between the market prices and yields for our securities and certain benchmark prices and interest rates periodically will adversely affect our net income, earnings per share and stockholders' equity.
- We cannot predict the impact of future Fed monetary policy on the prices and liquidity of Agency Securities or other securities in which we invest, although Fed action could increase the prices of our target assets and reduce the spread on our investments or decrease our book value.
- We invest in MBS guaranteed by GSEs such as Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, which are under conservatorship by the FHFA. Changes to the conservatorship or to the laws and regulations affecting the support GSEs receive may adversely affect the availability, financing, pricing, market value and liquidity of our assets.
- U.S. Government actions, including U.S. Congress, the Fed, U.S. Treasury, FHFA and other governmental and regulatory bodies may adversely affect our business.
- Tariff actions by the U.S and other countries may adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
- The use of derivative instruments may fail to protect or could adversely affect us.
- During stressful market conditions, we have sold and may in the future be forced to sell MBS at distressed prices, thereby potentially incurring permanent equity losses.
- Our lenders may insist on financing terms that could result in reducing the availability and/or increasing the cost of our financing or may terminate our financing.
- We may not be able to minimize potential credit risks that could arise in the event of bankruptcy of one or more of our counterparties.
- An inability to economically roll our TBA Agency Security transactions or to meet margin requirements on our TBA contracts could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
- Factors beyond our control may increase the prepayment speeds on our MBS, thereby reducing our interest income.
The other 54 risks
- Our MBS portfolio may lose some of its liquidity capital due to margin calls from repurchase counterparties on the fourth business day of each month.
- Reliance on inaccurate models or estimates could lead to poor business decisions and expose us to risk.
- We have issued and may in the future issue shares of our common stock in “at the market” offerings or underwritten “block” offerings, which may adversely impact the market price of our stock and result in dilution to existing stockholders
- We may issue stock when investment opportunities are relatively less attractive.
- We may repurchase our common and preferred stock at prices below book value, to the potential disadvantage of selling stockholders.
- ACM may terminate the management agreement for any reason. If ACM ceases to be our investment manager, financial institutions providing any financing arrangements to us may not provide future financing to us.
- ACM’s liability is limited under the management agreement and we have agreed to indemnify ACM and its affiliates against certain liabilities. As a result, we could experience poor performance or losses for which ACM would not be liable.
- There are potential conflicts of interest with current and future investment entities affiliated with ACM.
- There are potential conflicts of interest with the allocation of investment opportunities by ACM.
- Members of our management team have competing duties to other entities, which could result in decisions that are not in the best interests of our stockholders.
- ACM's management fees are calculated based on our gross equity raised and not on our performance. Gross equity raised substantially exceeds total stockholders' equity determined in accordance with GAAP and management fee expenses do not decline with reductions in our total stockholders' equity. As a result, ACM's annualized contractual management fee rate as of December 31, 2025 equaled 2.11% of stockholders' equity.
- The termination of the management agreement may be difficult and costly.
- The management agreement with ACM will automatically renew for an additional 5-year term unless ARMOUR gives 180-day written notice of non-renewal.
- The management agreement was not negotiated on an arm’s-length basis and the terms, including fees payable, may not be as favorable to us as if they were negotiated with an unaffiliated third-party.
- Distributable Earnings is a non-GAAP measure which excludes gains and losses, and therefore is an imperfect measure of our overall financial performance, and is not a standardized metric.
- Distributable Earnings may not provide sufficient incentive to ACM to maximize risk adjusted returns on our investment portfolio.
- A material portion of our aggregate repurchase financing is facilitated through BUCKLER.
- We hold a 10.8% equity ownership interest in BUCKLER and additionally, provided BUCKLER with $250 million in additional regulatory capital.
- BUCKLER relies primarily on bilateral and triparty repurchase agreement funding through the FICC.
- BUCKLER is the primary placement agent for ARMOUR's common share ATM Program.
- BUCKLER may pursue business opportunities with third parties.
- There are potential conflicts of interest in our relationship with ACM and its affiliates, including BUCKLER, which could result in decisions that are not in the best interests of our stockholders.
- We operate in a highly competitive market for investment opportunities and related financing and competition may limit our ability and financing to acquire desirable investments in our target assets or obtain necessary financing and could also affect the pricing of these assets and cost of funds.
- Our ability to buy or sell our securities and arrange our repurchase financing may be severely limited or not profitable and we may be required to post additional collateral in connection with our financing.
- Exchange-traded swaps and futures have higher initial margin requirements than bilateral swap agreements.
- We may change our target assets, financing and investment strategies and operational policies without stockholder consent, which may adversely affect the market price of our common stock and our ability to make distributions to stockholders.
- There are significant restrictions on ownership of our common stock.
- If we fail to comply with the REIT tax requirements, we must dispose of a portion of our assets within 30 days after the end of the calendar quarter in order to avoid losing our REIT status and suffering adverse tax consequences. If we fail to qualify as a REIT, we will be subject to federal income tax as a regular corporation and may face substantial tax liability.
- If we remain qualified as a REIT, we may face other tax liabilities that reduce our cash flow.
- Complying with REIT requirements may cause us to forgo otherwise attractive opportunities.
- Complying with REIT requirements may force us to liquidate otherwise attractive investments.
- The failure of assets subject to repurchase agreements to qualify as real estate assets could adversely affect our ability to qualify as a REIT.
- Our capital loss carry forward for tax purposes may expire before we can fully use it to offset otherwise taxable income or gains.
- Distributions to tax-exempt investors may be classified as unrelated business taxable income.
- The “taxable mortgage pool” rules may increase the taxes that we or our stockholders may incur and may limit the manner in which we effect future securitizations.
- Liquidation of assets may jeopardize our REIT qualification or create additional tax liability for us.
- Risks related to rights to take action against directors and officers under Maryland law
- Provisions of Maryland law and other provisions of our organizational documents may limit the ability of a third-party to acquire control of the company.
- Rapid changes in the values of our target assets may make it more difficult for us to maintain our qualification as a REIT or our exemption from the 1940 Act.
- Maintenance of our exclusion from the 1940 Act will impose limits on our business.
- Loss of the 1940 Act exclusion would adversely affect us, the market price of shares of our stock and our ability to distribute dividends.
- Failure to maintain an exemption from being registered as a CPO could subject us to additional regulation and compliance requirements and may result in fines and other penalties which could materially adversely affect our business and financial condition.
- We depend on ACM for our key personnel. The loss of those key personnel could severely and detrimentally affect our operations.
- We have very broad investment strategies, and our Board will not approve each investment and financing decision made by ACM.
- We are highly dependent on information and communications systems. System failures, security breaches or cyber-attacks of networks or systems could significantly disrupt our business and negatively affect the market price of our common stock and our ability to distribute dividends.
- The use of artificial intelligence presents risks and challenges that may adversely impact our business.
- We are subject to financial reporting and other requirements for which our accounting, internal audit and other management systems and resources may not be adequately prepared.
- We have not established a minimum dividend payment level and there are no guarantees of our ability to pay dividends in the future.
- We may use proceeds from equity and debt offerings and other financings to fund distributions, which will decrease the amount of capital available for purchasing our target assets.
- Our return of capital distributions may increase capital gains.
- The performance of our common stock correlates to the performance of our REIT investments, which may be speculative and aggressive compared to other types of investments.
- Any future offerings of debt securities and/or preferred stock, which would rank senior to our common stock upon our liquidation, and future offerings of equity securities, which would dilute our existing stockholders and may be senior to our common stock for the purposes of dividend and liquidation distributions, may adversely affect the market price of our common stock.
- Our common stock may become the target of a “short squeeze.”
- Our common stock has experienced and may continue to experience price fluctuations, which could cause you to lose a significant portion of your investment and interfere with our efforts to grow our business.
- If securities or industry analysts fail to continue publishing research about our business, if they change their recommendations adversely or if our results of operations do not meet their expectations, our share price and trading volume could decline.
