Granite Point Mortgage Trust Inc. (NYSE: GPMT) (“GPMT,” “Granite Point” or the “Company”) today announced that the Company’s Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.05 per share of common stock for the third quarter of 2024. This dividend is payable on October 15, 2024, to holders of record of common stock at the close of business on October 1, 2024.

The Company’s Board of Directors also declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.4375 per share of the 7.00% Series A Fixed-to-Floating Rate Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock for the third quarter of 2024. This dividend is payable on October 15, 2024, to the holders of record of the Series A Preferred Stock at the close of business on October 1, 2024.

“We are pleased to report continued progress addressing our nonearning assets having resolved three nonaccrual loans during the third quarter totaling over $120 million in principal balance,” said Jack Taylor, President and Chief Executive Officer of Granite Point. “We anticipate resolving additional nonperforming loans through the remainder of the year, as the real estate markets continue their bottoming process, and the volume of transactions improves. While we continue to actively asset manage our portfolio and emphasize higher liquidity, we also have remained opportunistic with respect to driving economic returns for our shareholders. As such, we repurchased 0.7 million common shares during the quarter generating book value accretion. To provide us with additional flexibility to actively manage our capital over time, our Board has increased our buyback authorization by an additional 3 million common shares.”
