Eagle Point Income Company Inc. (the “Company”) (NYSE: EIC,
EICA, EICB, EICC) today announced financial results for the quarter
ended March 31, 2024 and certain additional activity through April
30, 2024.
“It was another excellent quarter for Eagle Point Income
Company, as the portfolio continued to generate strong cash flows
and income for our shareholders,” said Thomas P. Majewski, Chairman
and Chief Executive Officer. “For the quarter, we generated net
investment income and realized gains of $0.56 per share, while also
growing our net asset value per share by over 5% from year-end
2023. We also significantly strengthened our balance sheet,
utilizing our ‘at-the-market’ program to accretively issue shares
of common stock at a premium to net asset value. In addition, we
successfully issued our new 8.00% Series C Term Preferred Stock due
2029, providing us with net proceeds of $34 million.”
“We were also honored to be named last week by Creditflux as
their Best Public Closed-End CLO Fund for 2023,1 a testament to our
entire team’s relentless efforts. Moving ahead, we remain well
positioned in this elevated rate environment to deploy capital
opportunistically into new CLO debt and equity investments in order
to generate additional, sustainable net investment income,”
concluded Mr. Majewski.

judged using the change in value of the fund over the year
accounting for share issuance and distributions. The Company’s
Adviser submitted the Company’s nomination for this award.
2 “Per weighted average common share” is based on the average
daily number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period
and “per share” refers to per share of the Company’s common
stock.
3 “Recurring cash distributions” refers to the quarterly
distributions received by the Company from its CLO debt, CLO equity
and other investments.
4 “Weighted average effective yield” is based on an investment’s

applicable market conditions at any given time, or should
significant opportunities present themselves, the Company may incur
leverage in excess of this amount, subject to applicable regulatory
and contractual limits.
6 The ability of the Company to declare and pay distributions on
stock is subject to a number of factors, including the Company’s
results of operations. Distributions on stock are generally paid
from net investment income (regular interest and dividends) and may
also include capital gains and/or a return of capital. The actual
components of the Company’s distributions for U.S. tax reporting
purposes can only be finally determined as of the end of each
fiscal year of the Company and are thereafter reported on Form
