Reworded paragraphs (34)
Previous wording
During the six months ended June 30, 2025, the current U.S. administration has introduced tariffs on imports from a broad set of countries, including Canada, Mexico, European Union member states, Japan and China. In response to these tariffs, global trading partners have imposed or may impose their own tariffs. Such U.S. tariffs and responsive tariffs have increased the volatility of financial markets and interest rates. ARMOUR believes that it has acted to mitigate risk, moderate leverage and maximize liquidity. The Company expects that it will remain focused on prioritizing liquidity through this period of increased market volatility and financial risks. The Company has met all of its obligations to repurchase agreement counterparties in a timely manner, while managing the risk of its assets and hedging portfolios. See Item 1A. "Risk Factors" for further discussion of the possible impact of tariffs on our business.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the U.S. administration has introduced tariffs on imports from a broad set of countries, including Canada, Mexico, European Union member states, Japan and China. In response, global trading partners have imposed or may impose their own tariffs. Such U.S. tariffs and responsive tariffs increased the volatility of financial markets and interest rates, though volatility is currently lower, influenced by other factors such as the Federal Reserve resumption of interest-rate normalization. ARMOUR expects that it will continue prioritizing liquidity, given the potential for renewed market volatility and financial risks. The Company has met all of its obligations to repurchase agreement counterparties in a timely manner, while managing the risk of its assets and hedging portfolios. See Item 1A. "Risk Factors" for further discussion of the possible impact of tariffs on our business.

Previous wording
The Company is managed by ACM, pursuant to a management agreement. The management fees are determined based on gross equity raised. Therefore, management fees increase when we raise capital and decline when we repurchase previously issued stock and make liquidation distributions as approved and so designated by a majority of the Board. However, because the management fee rate decreases to 0.75% per annum for gross equity raised in excess of $1.0 billion pursuant to the management agreement, the effective management fee rate declines as equity is raised. The cost of repurchased stock and any dividends specifically designated by the Board as liquidation distributions will reduce the amount of gross equity raised used to calculate the monthly management fee. Realized and unrealized gains and losses do not affect the amount of gross equity raised. At June 30, 2025 and June 30, 2024, the effective management fee, prior to management fees waived, was 0.90% and 0.93% based on gross equity raised of $4,969,351 and $4,230,675, respectively. During each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and June 30, 2024 ACM voluntarily waived management fees of $1,650 and $3,300, respectively, (see Note 13 - Related Party Transactions).

We use various contracts to manage our interest rate risk as we deem prudent in light of market conditions and the associated costs with counterparties that have a high-quality credit rating and with futures exchanges.

At September 30, 2025, there was approximately $6,699 of unvested stock based compensation related to the Awards (based on a weighted grant date price of $26.32 per share), which we expect to recognize as an expense as follows: for the remainder of 2025 an expense of $608, in 2026 an expense of $2,236, and thereafter an expense of $3,855. Our policy is to account for forfeitures as they occur. We also pay each of our non-executive Board members quarterly fees, which are payable in cash, common stock, RSUs or a combination of common stock, RSUs and cash at the option of the director. Compensation to be paid to our non-executive Board in the form of cash and common equity is $1,219 annually (see Note 9 to the consolidated financial statements).
Previous wording
We may increase our capital resources by obtaining long-term credit facilities or making public or private offerings of equity or debt securities, including classes of preferred stock, common stock and senior or subordinated notes to meet our liquidity requirements. As of the date hereof, we have "at-the-market" offering programs with 3,136 shares of 7.00% Series C Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock available under the Preferred C ATM Sales Agreement and 8,233 shares of common stock available under the 2023 Common stock ATM Sales Agreement. In accordance with the terms of these agreements, we may offer and sell shares of stock over a period of time and from time to time, with BUCKLER and other agents as sales agents (see Note 10 to the consolidated financial statements). These liquidity requirements include maturing repurchase agreements, settling TBA Agency Security positions and potentially making net payments on our interest rate swap contracts, and in each case, continuing to meet ongoing margin requirements. Such financing will depend on market conditions for capital raises and for the investment of any proceeds and there can be no assurances that we will successfully obtain any such financing.

We update our fair value estimates at the end of each business day to reflect current market dynamics. During times of high market volatility, it can be difficult to obtain accurate market information timely, and accordingly, the confidence interval around our valuation estimates will increase, potentially significantly. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, the largest inter-day movement in the overall estimated values of our investment and hedge positions translated to a change in estimated book value of (0.44) per common share. Similarly, 98% of inter-day movements in estimated value translated to changes in estimated book value per share of 0.68 or less.
