Exhibit 99.1

Chimera Investment Corporation Reports EPS for the 3rd Quarter 2014 of $0.37 Per Share, Core Earnings of $0.12 Per Share and Book Value of $3.50 Per Share

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--November 10, 2014--Chimera Investment Corporation (NYSE:CIM) today announced its financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2014.

Financial Performance and Key Metrics

The Company reported net income for the quarter ended September 30, 2014 of $378 million or $0.37 per average share as compared to net income for the quarter ended September 30, 2013 of $67 million or $0.07 per average share. Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 was $583 million or $0.57 per average share as compared to net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 of $290 million or $0.28 per average share. Core earnings were $116 million or $0.11 per share for the quarter ended September 30, 2014 as compared to $93 million or $0.09 per share for the quarter ended September 30, 2013. Core earnings were $282 million or $0.27 per share for the nine months ended September 30, 2014, up from $263 million or $0.26 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013. Core earnings is a non-GAAP measure and is defined as GAAP net income (loss) excluding unrealized gains on the aggregate portfolio, impairment losses, realized gains on sales of investments, gain on deconsolidation, extinguishment of debt and certain other non-recurring gains or losses. As defined, Core earnings includes interest income and expense as well as realized gains or losses on derivatives used to hedge interest rate risk. Core earnings is provided for purposes of comparability to other peer issuers, but has important limitations. Core Earnings as described above helps evaluate our financial performance without the impact of certain transactions and is of limited usefulness as an analytical tool. Therefore, core earnings should not be viewed in isolation and is not a substitute for net income or net income per basic share computed in accordance with GAAP.

GAAP book value was $3.50 per share, an increase of 4% from June 30, 2014 and an increase of 8% from December 31, 2013. Book value increases reflect the favorable market fundamentals for both Agency and Non-Agency RMBS during the third quarter of 2014.

During the quarter ended September 30, 2014, the Company acquired the rights to approximately $4.8 billion of seasoned residential mortgage loans through the purchase of certain subordinate notes and trust certificates. By purchasing these securities, Chimera may over time, at its option, terminate the securitization trusts by redeeming all outstanding bonds.

The Company declared a common stock dividend of $0.09 per share for the quarter ended September 30, 2014. The annualized dividend yield on the Company’s common stock for the quarter ended September 30, 2014, based on the September 30, 2014 closing price of $3.04, was 11.8%.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2014, the yield on average interest earning assets was 10.7% and the annualized cost of funds on the average borrowed funds balance, including the net interest payments on interest rate swaps, was 3.9% for an interest rate spread of 6.9% and net interest margin of 7.9%. Leverage was 3.8:1 and recourse leverage was 2.6:1 at September 30, 2014.
