Exhibit 99.1

Ellington Credit Company Announces Financial Results for the Fourth Fiscal Quarter Ended March 31, 2026

OLD GREENWICH, Connecticut—May 19, 2026—Ellington Credit Company (NYSE: EARN) ("we") today reported financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2026.

Highlights

•Net asset value (NAV) per share was $4.09 as of March 31, 2026, which includes the effects of distributions of $0.24 per share for the quarter.

•GAAP net loss was $(32.3) million or $(0.86) per share.

•Net investment income ("NII") was $5.1 million, or $0.13 per share.

◦Adjusted net investment income1 was $7.3 million, or $0.19 per share.

•CLO portfolio was $307.9 million as of March 31, 2026.

◦CLO debt investments—$145.1 million

◦CLO equity investments—$162.8 million

◦Purchased $30.7 million of CLO investments and sold $34.2 million, across 44 trades.

•Weighted average GAAP yield2 for the quarter, based on amortized cost, was 12.5% on the total CLO portfolio.

•Received $17.4 million in recurring cash distributions3 from the investment portfolio, or $0.46 per share.

•Issued $54 million of senior unsecured notes on March 30, 2026.

Management Commentary

"The first calendar quarter of 2026 was marked by continued headwinds and volatility in the CLO market," said Laurence Penn, Chief Executive Officer and President. "For Ellington Credit, while as previously communicated our NAV declined during the quarter, our up-in-credit bias and active trading again drove outperformance versus peers.

"We believe that a significant portion of the market weakness was technical—driven by overall sentiment and elevated yield spreads in the corporate credit markets, rather than by fundamental credit deterioration. We selectively leaned into the resulting opportunities, prioritizing CLO mezzanine debt over equity while staying disciplined by adding incremental hedges along the way.

"We also enhanced our capital structure, taking advantage of a narrow market window at the end of March to issue unsecured debt. Following quarter end, we used most of the debt offering proceeds to make new CLO investments, with deployment substantially complete by the end of April, thus positioning us for future earnings growth. The offering has also meaningfully strengthened our balance sheet, as we used a portion of the proceeds to refinance repo financings, replacing short-term secured debt with long-term unsecured debt.

"The first quarter selloff has reset and recharged the opportunity set: prepayments and repricings have slowed, investment yields have increased, and CLO managers are increasingly able to acquire performing discount loans that help support deal structures and interest spreads. In addition, as a meaningful portion of our CLO equity portfolio exits its non-call period, refinancing and reset opportunities should enhance underlying cash flows and support future growth in net investment income. EARN entered the second quarter well positioned to take advantage of this new environment, with ample dry powder and with the active trading and hedging capabilities to turn market dislocations into long-term value. These recent developments have already contributed to EARN’s strong performance so far in the second quarter."

1 Adjusted net investment income is a non-GAAP financial measure. See "Reconciliation of Adjusted Net Investment Income to Net Investment Income" below for an explanation regarding the calculation of Adjusted net investment income.

2 Based on amortized cost; used in the calculation of interest income.

3 "Recurring cash distributions" primarily includes distributions received from our CLO investments but excludes cash received from CLO redemptions or sales during the quarter.

Financing

On March 30, 2026, we enhanced our capital structure through the issuance of $54.0 million of unsecured long-term notes (the "Senior Notes"), which bear a fixed interest rate of 8.50% payable quarterly in arrears, and mature on March 30, 2031 unless earlier redeemed or repurchased. The Senior Notes trade on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol "ELLA" and have been rated ‘BBB’ by Egan-Jones Ratings Company, a nationally recognized statistical rating organization. We elected the fair value option under ASC 825 for the Senior Notes, and accordingly, the Senior Notes are included on the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities under the caption "Unsecured borrowings, at fair value"; as a result of this election we expensed $2.3 million of debt issuance costs at the time of issuance.

The following table summarizes our outstanding borrowings as of March 31, 2026:

CLO Performance

The quarter ended March 31, 2026 began on a constructive note, with credit spreads tightening and leveraged loan prices rising early in the year. However, market sentiment deteriorated as the quarter progressed, driven by growing concerns about the potential disruptive effects that artificial intelligence could have on corporate borrowers in the software sector. Broadly syndicated loans to the software sector, which represent roughly 11%4 of all CLO loan collateral, posted a negative total return of (5.5%)4 for the quarter, creating a significant drag on the performance of the wider CLO market. These pressures were compounded by broader macroeconomic volatility, including escalating geopolitical tensions. As a result, credit spreads widened materially, and prices on the Morningstar LSTA US Leveraged Loan Index fell 2.2% from their January peak through quarter end. The European leveraged loan market faced similar price declines.

This weakness in leveraged loans drove broader spread widening across CLO debt tranche spreads during the quarter, with performance diverging sharply by credit quality. Senior tranches (AAA through A) were relatively resilient, outperforming both investment-grade and high-yield corporate bond indices. In contrast, lower-rated CLO debt experienced significant spread widening, particularly BB-rated tranches, where heavy selling pressure—driven by heightened credit concerns and sector-specific weaknesses—led to underperformance.

Meanwhile, elevated default concerns weighed heavily on CLO equity valuations, particularly for CLOs with higher exposure to lower-rated loans. These pressures were further compounded by the continued compression of net interest margins within most CLOs, particularly earlier in the quarter, which reduced the excess interest available to CLO equity tranches. Overall, CLO equity generated significant losses for the quarter, as both excess interest and CLO liquidation values declined simultaneously. These effects were even more pronounced for European CLO equity tranches.

Our investment portfolio generated negative results for the quarter, as unrealized losses concentrated in CLO equity exceeded net investment income, trading gains on mezzanine debt, and gains from the call of mezzanine debt positions held at discounts to par. At March 31, 2026, our CLO portfolio had a fair value of $307.9 million and a weighted average projected yield of 16.6% (based on fair value), and we held cash and cash equivalents of $57.7 million.

Reconciliation of Adjusted Net Investment Income to Net Investment Income

We calculate Adjusted Net Investment Income as net investment income adjusted for: (i) non-recurring expenses; (ii) non-capitalized transaction costs, (iii) net realized and change in net appreciation (depreciation) associated with periodic settlements on interest rate swaps, and (iv) interest and dividend income (expense) net of transaction fees associated with the referenced assets on total return swaps. Adjusted Net Investment Income is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure. We believe that the presentation of Adjusted Net Investment Income provides information useful to investors, because: (i) we believe that it is a useful indicator of both current and projected long-term financial performance, in that it excludes the impact of certain expenses and non-capitalized transaction costs that we believe are less useful in forecasting long-term performance and distribution-paying ability; and (ii) we believe that realized and accrued periodic settlements on interest rates swaps and interest and dividend income (expense) net of transaction fees on total return swaps are similar to net investment income and are more appropriately classified as recurring.

Our calculation of Adjusted Net Investment Income may differ from the calculation of similarly titled non-GAAP financial measures by our peers, with the result that these non-GAAP financial measures might not be directly comparable. In addition, because Adjusted Net Investment Income is an incomplete measure of our financial results and differs from net investment income computed in accordance with U.S. GAAP, it should be considered supplementary to, and not as a substitute for, net investment income computed in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

In setting our distributions, our Board of Trustees considers our earnings, liquidity, financial condition, distribution requirements, and financial covenants, along with other factors that our Board of Trustees may deem relevant from time to time.

The following table reconciles, for the quarters ended March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, our Adjusted Net Investment Income to the line on our Consolidated Statement of Operations entitled Net Investment Income, which we believe is the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure:
