**BIMINI CAPITAL MANAGEMENT ANNOUNCES FOURTH QUARTER 2022 RESULTS**

VERO BEACH, Fla., (March 9, 2023) – Bimini Capital Management, Inc. (OTCQB: BMNM), ("Bimini Capital," "Bimini," or the "Company"), today announced results of operations for the three-month period ended December 31, 2022.

**Fourth Quarter 2022 Highlights**

● Net loss of $12.0 million , or $1.17 per common share

● Book value per share of $1.21

● Company to discuss results on Friday, March 10, 2023 , at 10:00 AM ET

**Management Commentary**

Commenting on the fourth quarter results, Robert E. Cauley, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, said, "As 2022 came to an end the markets and the Federal Reserve's ("Fed") outlook for the economy, inflation and the path of monetary policy had diverged. The seeds for the divergence were planted as the third quarter came to an end with the Fed convincing the market that they had additional work to do to slow the economy and reduce inflation; a process that would continue longer than the market had expected. In fact, the Fed was so successful at convincing the market it would aggressively remove accommodation and slow inflation that the market began to look beyond this step in the process and instead focus on the ramifications of such policy removal – namely a slowing of the economy. The change of focus – or "pivot" – on the part of the market occurred in late October/early November due to inflation data. The consumer price index data for October and November were much lower than previous months - although this data was revised higher in early February of 2023. The market interpreted this development as evidence that inflation had peaked and was coming down quite quickly."

"As incoming data over the course of the fourth quarter of 2022 appeared to be consistent with the markets' thesis that inflation had peaked and the economy was slowing, confidence grew that the Fed would need to pivot and start to loosen its tight monetary policy later in 2023. This led to a material change in risk sentiment during the fourth quarter and risk assets performed very well. The Agency MBS market returns for 2022 were negative – down 11.9%. However, the sector posted positive returns for the fourth quarter of 2.1%, which was 110 basis points higher than comparable duration swaps. The performance of the Agency RMBS sector was not uniformly positive for the fourth quarter. Early in the quarter U.S. Treasury yields reached their highest levels in many years in late October. Agency MBS spreads to comparable duration U.S. Treasuries also reached their widest levels since the 2008 financial crisis, easily surpassing the levels observed in March of 2020. As market sentiment turned mid-quarter and risk appetite improved, Agency MBS, like most other asset classes, were viewed as very attractive. The sector's rebound was likely triggered by the extreme spread levels reached in late October, and the rebound has continued into early 2023. However, the absence of the largest of the traditional buyers of the asset class – banks, and since March of 2020, the Fed - may result in the sector recovering more slowly towards pre-pandemic levels, if it can do so at all.

"For the quarter, Orchid reported net income $34.9 million, and its shareholders equity increased from $400.4 million at September 30, 2022 to $438.8 million at December 31, 2022. Increases in shareholders' equity may lead to additional management fees at Bimini Advisors in the near-term since the management fees are a function of Orchid's equity. Orchid's share price increased during the quarter from $8.20 to $10.50, resulting in a $1.2 million dollar gain. Orchid's dividend was unchanged for the quarter although dividend income for the quarter was down slightly as the dividend rate at the beginning of third quarter 2022 was higher. Finally, advisory service revenues related to Bimini Advisors management of Orchid Island were essentially unchanged from the third quarter.

"With respect to the MBS portfolio at Royal Palm, as was the case throughout most of the year our intention was to grow our cash position until we saw clear evidence the market had stabilized before redeploying our cash to resume growing the portfolio. The Agency MBS did in fact stabilize during the latter half of the fourth quarter and we did add modestly to the portfolio. For the fourth quarter we added approximately $2.2 million in new MBS, recorded $0.7 million of unrealized mark to market gains which were offset by paydowns of approximately $1.2 million. The net of these was a $1.6 million increase in the pass-through portfolio. The structured portfolio was essentially unchanged during the quarter. We added further early in the first quarter of 2023 although the recent reemergence of elevated expectations for Fed policy tightening and the subsequent softness in the Agency MBS market has caused us to pause our growth plans for now."

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) Effective duration is the approximate percentage change in price for a 100 basis point change in rates. An effective duration of 4.323 indicates that an interest rate increase of 1.0% would be expected to cause a 4.323 % decrease in the value of the MBS in the Company's investment portfolio at December 31, 2022 . An effective duration of 2.103 indicates that an interest rate increase of 1.0% would be expected to cause a 2.103 % decrease in the value of the MBS in the Company's investment portfolio at December 31, 2021. These figures include the structured securities in the portfolio but not the effect of the Company's hedges. Effective duration quotes for individual investments are obtained from The Yield Book, Inc.

------

**Financing and Liquidity**

As of December 31, 2022, the Company had outstanding repurchase obligations of approximately $43.8 million with a net weighted average borrowing rate of 4.48%. These agreements were collateralized by MBS with a fair value, including accrued interest, of approximately $45.9 million and cash of approximately $0.5 million. At December 31, 2022, the Company's liquidity was approximately $6.2 million, consisting of unpledged MBS and cash and cash equivalents.

We may pledge more of our structured MBS as part of a repurchase agreement funding, but retain cash in lieu of acquiring additional assets. In this way, we can, at a modest cost, retain higher levels of cash on hand and decrease the likelihood we will have to sell assets in a distressed market in order to raise cash. Below is a list of outstanding borrowings under repurchase obligations at December 31, 2022.
