Credit & Capital Structure Analyst

AGNC adds new 8.75% preferred layer via underwritten offering.

AGNC Investment Corp. is issuing depositary shares tied to a new 8.75% Series H cumulative redeemable preferred stock. The base deal covers 12,000,000 depositary shares, each equal to a 1/1,000th interest in a preferred share, with underwriters exercising their option for an additional 1,800,000 depositary shares on September 5, 2025. This expands the company’s stack of exchange-listed preferred securities alongside its existing Series C–G issues.

The transaction is fully underwritten by a large bank syndicate under an existing automatic shelf registration on Form S-3ASR, using a prospectus supplement dated September 3, 2025. As a cumulative preferred with an 8.75% fixed rate, this security adds a higher-cost layer of capital that precedes common equity in the payout hierarchy. Actual economic impact will depend on offering proceeds and how the capital is deployed, which are not detailed in this excerpt.

The offering is expected to close on September 10, 2025, subject to customary closing conditions. Subsequent company disclosures may provide more detail on net proceeds, redemption features, and how this preferred issuance fits into AGNC’s broader funding and leverage profile.
