ARLINGTON, Va., March 3, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Arlington Asset
Investment Corp. (NYSE: AI) ("Arlington" or the "Company") has become aware
of several third parties erroneously reporting the recent dividend
announcement of Atrium Mortgage Investment Corporation, a Canadian
non-bank lender traded on the Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX: AI)
("Atrium") as an Arlington
dividend. Arlington has no
affiliation with Atrium, and was just recently made aware of these
errors.
As Arlington has previously
announced, the most recent dividend authorized by Arlington's Board of Directors (the "Board")
and declared by Arlington was a
dividend of $0.625 per share for the
fourth quarter of 2016 that was announced on December 16, 2016 and paid on January 31, 2017. Under its current
dividend policy, Arlington intends
to announce the Board's determination of a dividend for the first
quarter of 2017 later this month in the normal course of
business. Arlington
encourages its shareholders to refer to Arlington's website at
www.arlingtonasset.com and Arlington's filings with the Securities and
Exchange Commission, available at http://www.sec.gov, for accurate
information pertaining to Arlington's historical dividends.
