NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

 

Note 1—Organization and Basis of Presentation

 

PennyMac Financial Services, Inc. (“PFSI” or the “Company”) was formed as a Delaware corporation on December 31, 2012. Pursuant to a reorganization, the Company became a holding corporation and its primary asset is an equity interest in Private National Mortgage Acceptance Company, LLC (“PennyMac”). The Company is the managing member of PennyMac and operates and controls all of the businesses and affairs of PennyMac subject to the consent rights of other members under certain circumstances and, through PennyMac and its subsidiaries, continues to conduct the business previously conducted by these subsidiaries.

 

PennyMac is a Delaware limited liability company which, through its subsidiaries, engages in mortgage banking and investment management activities. PennyMac’s mortgage banking activities consist of residential mortgage lending (including correspondent lending and retail lending) and loan servicing. PennyMac’s investment management activities and a portion of its loan servicing activities are conducted on behalf of investment vehicles that invest in residential mortgage loans and related assets. PennyMac’s primary wholly owned subsidiaries are:

 

·                  PNMAC Capital Management, LLC (“PCM”)—a Delaware limited liability company registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) as an investment adviser under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended. PCM enters into investment management agreements with entities that invest in residential mortgage loans and related assets.

 

Presently, PCM has management agreements with PennyMac Mortgage Investment Trust (“PMT”), a publicly held real estate investment trust, and three investment funds: PNMAC Mortgage Opportunity Fund, LLC and PNMAC Mortgage Opportunity Fund, L.P., (the “Master Fund”), both registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended; and PNMAC Mortgage Opportunity Fund Investors, LLC (collectively, “Investment Funds”). Together, the Investment Funds and PMT are referred to as the “Advised Entities.”

 

·                  PennyMac Loan Services, LLC (“PLS”)—a Delaware limited liability company that services portfolios of residential mortgage loans on behalf of non-affiliates or the Advised Entities, originates new prime credit quality residential mortgage loans, and engages in other mortgage banking activities for its own account and the account of PMT.

 

PLS is approved as a seller/servicer of mortgage loans by the Federal National Mortgage Association (“Fannie Mae”) and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“Freddie Mac”) and as an issuer of securities guaranteed by the Government National Mortgage Association (“Ginnie Mae”). PLS is a licensed Federal Housing Administration Nonsupervised Title II Lender with the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (“HUD”) and a lender/servicer with the Veterans Administration (“VA”) (each an “Agency” and collectively the “Agencies”).

 

·                  PNMAC Opportunity Fund Associates, LLC (“PMOFA”)—a Delaware limited liability company and the general partner of the Master Fund. PMOFA is entitled to incentive fees representing allocations of profits (“Carried Interest”) from the Master Fund.

 

Initial Public Offering and Recapitalization

 

On May 14, 2013, PFSI completed an initial public offering (“IPO”) in which it sold approximately 12.8 million shares of its Class A common stock, at a public offering price of $18.00 per share. PFSI received net proceeds of $216.8 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions, from sales of its shares in the IPO. PFSI used these net proceeds to purchase approximately 12.8 million Class A units of PennyMac. PFSI operates and controls all of the business and affairs and consolidates the financial results of PennyMac and its subsidiaries.

 

The purchase of 12.8 million Class A units of PennyMac has been accounted for as a transfer of interests under common control. Accordingly, the accompanying consolidated financial statements reflect a reclassification of members’ equity to noncontrolling interests in the Company of $315.5 million. This amount represents the carrying value in the Company of the existing owners of PennyMac on the date of the IPO.

 

Before the IPO, PennyMac completed a reorganization by amending its limited liability company agreement to convert all classes of ownership interests held by its existing owners to a single class of common units. The conversion of existing interests was based on the various interests’ liquidation priorities as specified in PennyMac’s prior limited liability company agreement. In connection with that reorganization, PFSI became the sole managing member of PennyMac.

 

After the completion of the recapitalization and reorganization transactions, PennyMac became a consolidated subsidiary of the Company. Accordingly, PennyMac’s consolidated financial statements are the Company’s historical financial statements. The historical consolidated financial statements of PennyMac are reflected herein based on the historical ownership interests of the then-existing PennyMac unitholders.

Tax Receivable Agreement

 

As part of the IPO, PFSI entered into an Exchange Agreement with PennyMac’s existing unitholders whereby the existing unitholders may exchange their PennyMac units for PFSI stock. Before 2013, PennyMac made an election pursuant to Section 754 of the Internal Revenue Code which remains in effect. As a result of this election an exchange under the Exchange Agreement results in a special adjustment for PFSI that may increase PFSI’s tax basis of certain assets of PennyMac that otherwise would not have been available. These increases in tax basis may reduce the amount of income tax that PFSI would otherwise be required to pay in the future. These increases in tax basis may also decrease gains (or increase losses) on future dispositions of certain assets to the extent a portion of the increased tax basis is allocated to those assets.

 

As part of the IPO, PFSI entered into a tax receivable agreement with PennyMac’s existing unitholders that will provide for the payment by PFSI to PennyMac exchanged unitholders an amount equal to 85% of the amount of the benefits, if any, that PFSI is deemed to realize as a result of (i) increases in tax basis resulting from the exchanges noted above and (ii) certain other tax benefits related to PFSI entering into the tax receivable agreement, including tax benefits attributable to payments under the tax receivable agreement.

 

The term of the tax receivable agreement will continue until all such tax benefits have been utilized or expired, unless PFSI exercises its right to terminate the tax receivable agreement. In the event of termination of the tax receivable agreement, the Company would be required to make an immediate payment equal to the present value of the anticipated future net tax benefits, which upfront payment may be made years in advance of the actual realization of such future benefits.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in compliance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) as codified in the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification for interim financial information and with the SEC’s instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, these financial statements and notes do not include all of the information required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. The interim consolidated information should be read together with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013 (the “Annual Report”). Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

 

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the interim periods, but are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be anticipated for the full year ending December 31, 2014.

 

Reclassification of previously presented balances

 

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation. Specifically:

 

·                  Interest expense is included in Interest income as a new caption of Net interest expense to better reflect results of the Company’s portfolio of interest-earning assets. Previously, Interest expense was included within Total expenses. The reclassification results in the presentation of Net interest expense.

Other Transactions

 

In connection with the IPO of PMT’s common shares on August 4, 2009, the Company entered into an agreement with PMT pursuant to which PMT agreed to reimburse the Company for the $2.9 million payment that it made to the underwriters in such offering (the “Conditional Reimbursement”) if PMT satisfied certain performance measures over a specified period of time. Effective February 1, 2013, the parties amended the terms of the reimbursement agreement to provide for the reimbursement to the Company of the Conditional Reimbursement if PMT is required to pay the Company performance incentive fees under the management agreement at a rate of $10 in reimbursement for every $100 of performance incentive fees earned. The reimbursement of the Conditional Reimbursement is subject to a maximum reimbursement in any particular 12 month period of $1.0 million and the maximum amount that may be reimbursed under the agreement is $2.9 million. The Company received payments from PMT totaling $36,000 during the quarter ended March 31, 2014.

 

In the event the termination fee is payable to the Company under the management agreement and the Company has not received the full amount of the reimbursements and payments under the reimbursement agreement, such amount will be paid in full. The term of the reimbursement agreement expires on February 1, 2019.

 

PMT reimburses the Company for other expenses, including common overhead expenses incurred on its behalf by the Company, in accordance with the terms of its management agreement. Such amounts are summarized below:

Exchanged Private National Mortgage Acceptance Company, LLC Unitholders

 

As discussed in Note 1, the Company entered into a tax receivable agreement with PennyMac’s existing unitholders on the date of the IPO that will provide for the payment by PFSI to PennyMac’s exchanged unitholders an amount equal to 85% of the amount of the benefits, if any, that PFSI is deemed to realize as a result of (i) increases in tax basis resulting from such unitholders’ exchanges and (ii) certain other tax benefits related to entering into the tax receivable agreement, including tax benefits attributable to payments under the tax receivable agreement. Based on the PennyMac unitholder exchanges to date, the Company has recorded a $71.7 million liability and it has not made a payment under the tax sharing agreement as of March 31, 2014.

 

Note 4—Earnings Per Share of Common Stock

 

Basic earnings per share of common stock is determined using net income attributable to the Company’s common stockholders divided by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share of common stock is determined by dividing net income attributable to the Company’s common stockholders by the weighted average of shares of common stock outstanding, assuming all potentially dilutive shares of common stock were issued.

 

The Company applies the treasury stock method to determine the dilutive weighted average shares of common stock represented by the unvested stock based awards and the exchangeable PennyMac Class A units. The diluted earnings per share calculation assumes the exchange of these PennyMac Class A units for shares of common stock. Accordingly, earnings attributable to the Company’s common stockholders is also adjusted to include the earnings allocated to the PennyMac Class A units after taking into account the income taxes applicable to the shares of common stock assumed to be exchanged.

 

The Company did not disclose March 31, 2013 earnings per share amounts as the Company was not publicly traded.

Certain of the loans serviced by the Company are subserviced on the Company’s behalf by other mortgage loan servicers. Loans are subserviced for the Company on a transitional basis for loans where the Company has obtained the rights to service the loans but servicing of the loans has not yet transferred to the Company’s servicing system.

 

Note 6—Netting of Financial Instruments

 

The Company uses derivative financial instruments to manage exposure to interest rate risk for the interest rate lock commitments (“IRLCs”) it makes to purchase or originate mortgage loans at specified interest rates, its inventory of mortgage loans held for sale and mortgage servicing rights (“MSRs”). The Company has elected to net derivative asset and liability positions, and cash collateral obtained from (or posted to) its counterparties when subject to a master netting arrangement that is legally enforceable on all counterparties in the event of default. The derivatives that are not subject to a master netting arrangement are IRLCs.

Note 7—Fair Value

 

The Company’s consolidated financial statements include assets and liabilities that are measured based on their estimated fair values. The application of fair value estimates may be on a recurring or nonrecurring basis depending on the accounting principles applicable to the specific asset or liability and whether management has elected to carry the item at its estimated fair value as discussed in the following paragraphs.

 

Fair Value Accounting Elections

 

Management identified all of its non-cash financial assets and its originated MSRs relating to loans with initial interest rates of more than 4.5% and MSRs purchased subject to excess servicing spread (“ESS”) financing to be accounted for at estimated fair value so changes in fair value will be reflected in results of operations as they occur and more timely reflect the results of the Company’s performance. Management has also identified its ESS financing to be accounted for at fair value as a means of hedging the related MSR’s fair value risk.

 

For originated MSRs relating to mortgage loans with initial interest rates of less than or equal to 4.5%, management has concluded that such assets present different risks to the Company than originated MSRs relating to mortgage loans with initial interest rates of more than 4.5% and therefore require a different risk management approach. Management’s risk management efforts relating to these assets are aimed at mainly moderating the effects of non-interest rate risks on fair value, such as the effect of changes in home prices on the assets’ fair values. Management has identified these assets for accounting using the amortization method.

 

Management’s risk management efforts in connection with MSRs relating to mortgage loans with initial interest rates of more than 4.5% are aimed at mainly moderating the effects of changes in interest rates on the assets’ fair values. At times during the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, derivatives were used to hedge the fair value changes of the MSRs.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments Carried at Amortized Cost

 

The Company’s Cash as well as its Mortgage loans sold under agreements to repurchase, Note payable, Carried Interest due from Investment Funds, and amounts receivable from and payable to the Advised Entities are carried at amortized cost.

 

Cash is measured using “Level 1” significant inputs. The Company’s borrowings carried at amortized cost do not have active markets or observable inputs and the fair value is measured using management’s best estimate of fair value, where the inputs into the determination of fair value require significant management judgment or estimation. The Company has classified these financial instruments as “Level 3” financial statement items as of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013 due to the lack of current market activity and the Company’s reliance on unobservable inputs to estimate the fair value.

 

Management has concluded that the carrying value of the Carried Interest due from Investment Funds approximates its fair value as the balance represents the amount distributable to the Company at the balance sheet date assuming liquidation of the Investment Funds. Management has concluded that the estimated fair value of the Note payable approximates the agreements’ carrying value due to the agreement’s short term and variable interest rate. The Company has classified these financial instruments as “Level 3” financial statement items due to the lack of current market activity and the Company’s reliance on unobservable inputs to estimate these instruments’ fair value.

 

The Company also carries the receivable from and payable to the Advised Entities at cost. Management has concluded that the estimated fair value of such balances approximates the carrying value due to the short terms of such balances.

 

Valuation Techniques and Assumptions

 

Most of the Company’s financial assets, including its ESS, are carried at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in current period income. Certain of the Company’s financial assets and all of its MSRs and ESS are “Level 3” financial statement items which require the use of significant unobservable inputs in the estimation of the items’ fair values. Unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s own assumptions about the factors that market participants use in pricing an asset or liability, and are based on the best information available under the circumstances.

 

The Company’s Financial Analysis and Valuation group (the “FAV group”), which is responsible for valuing and monitoring the Company’s investment portfolios and maintenance of its valuation policies and procedures, estimates the fair values of “Level 3” financial instruments and MSRs.

Table of Contents

 

The FAV group reports to the Company’s senior management valuation committee, which oversees and approves the valuations. The FAV group monitors the models used for valuation of the Company’s “Level 3” financial statement items, including the models’ performance versus actual results and reports those results to the Company’s senior management valuation committee. The results developed in the FAV group’s monitoring activities may be used to calibrate subsequent projections used for valuation.

 

The FAV group is responsible for reporting to the Company’s senior management valuation committee on a monthly basis on the changes in the valuation of the portfolio, including major factors affecting the valuation and any changes in model methods and assumptions. To assess the reasonableness of its valuations, the FAV group presents an analysis of the effect on the valuation of changes to the significant inputs to the models.

 

Following is a description of the techniques and assumptions used in estimating the fair values of “Level 2” and “Level 3” fair value financial statement items:

 

Mortgage Loans Held for Sale

 

Most of the Company’s mortgage loans held for sale at fair value are salable into active markets and are therefore categorized as “Level 2” fair value financial statement items and their fair values are estimated using their quoted market or contracted price or market price equivalent.

 

Certain of the Company’s mortgage loans may become non salable into active markets due to identification of a defect by the Company or to the repurchase of a mortgage loan with an identified defect. Because such mortgage loans are generally not salable into active mortgage markets, they are classified as “Level 3” financial statement items. The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Company’s “non-salable” mortgage loans held for sale at fair value are discount rates, home price projections, voluntary prepayment speeds and default speeds. Significant changes in any of those inputs in isolation could result in a significant change to the loans’ fair value measurement. Increases in home price projections are generally accompanied by an increase in voluntary prepayment speeds.

 

Following is a quantitative summary of key inputs used in the valuation of “Level 3” mortgage loans held for sale at fair value:

(1)  Prepayment speed is measured using Life Voluntary Conditional Prepayment Rate (“CPR”).

 

(2)  Total prepayment speed is measured using Life Total CPR.

 

Changes in fair value attributable to changes in instrument specific credit risk are measured by the change in the respective loan’s delinquency status at period end from the later of the beginning of the period or acquisition date. Changes in fair value of mortgage loans held for sale are included in Net gains on mortgage loans held for sale at fair value in the consolidated statements of income.

 

Derivative Financial Instruments

 

The Company categorizes IRLCs as a “Level 3” financial statement item. The Company estimates the fair value of an IRLC based on quoted Agency mortgage-backed securities (“MBS”) prices, its estimate of the fair value of the MSRs it expects to receive in the sale of the loans and the probability that the mortgage loan will fund or be purchased (the “pull-through rate”).

 

The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Company’s IRLCs are the pull-through rate and the MSR component of the Company’s estimate of the value of the mortgage loans it has committed to purchase. Significant changes in the pull-through rate or the MSR component of the IRLCs, in isolation, could result in significant changes in fair value measurement. The financial effects of changes in these assumptions are generally inversely correlated as increasing interest rates have a positive effect on the fair value of the MSR component of IRLC value, but increase the pull through rate for loans that have decreased in fair value.

The Company estimates the fair value of commitments to sell loans based on quoted MBS prices. The Company estimates the fair value of the MBS options and futures it purchases and sells based on observed interest rate volatilities in the MBS market. Changes in fair value of IRLCs and related hedging derivatives are included in Net gains on mortgage loans held for sale at fair value in the consolidated statements of income.

 

Mortgage Servicing Rights

 

MSRs are categorized as “Level 3” fair value financial statement items. The Company uses a discounted cash flow approach to estimate the fair value of MSRs. This approach consists of projecting net servicing cash flows discounted at a rate that management believes market participants would use in their determinations of fair value. The key inputs used in the estimation of the fair value of MSRs include prepayment rates of the underlying loans, the applicable discount rate or pricing spread, and the per-loan annual cost to service mortgage loans.

 

The results of the estimates of fair value of MSRs are reported to the Company’s senior management valuation committee as part of their review and approval of monthly valuation results. Changes in the fair value of MSRs are included in Net servicing feesAmortization, impairment and change in estimated fair value of mortgage servicing rights in the consolidated statements of income.

Excess Servicing Spread Financing at Fair Value

 

The Company categorizes ESS financing as a “Level 3” financial statement item. The Company uses a discounted cash flow approach to estimate the fair value of ESS financing. The key inputs used in the estimation of ESS financing include pricing spread, average life, and prepayment speed. Significant changes to any of those inputs in isolation could result in a significant change in the ESS financing fair value measurement. Changes in these key assumptions are not necessarily directly related.

 

ESS is generally subject to loss in value when mortgage interest rates decrease. Decreasing mortgage interest rates normally encourage increased mortgage refinancing activity. Increased refinancing activity reduces the life of the loans underlying the ESS, thereby reducing ESS financing’s fair value. Reductions in the fair value of ESS financing affect income primarily through change in fair value.

 

Interest expense for ESS financing is accrued using the interest method based upon the expected income from the ESS through the expected life of the underlying mortgage loans. Changes to expected cash flows result in a change in fair value which is recorded in Amortization, impairment and change in estimated fair value of mortgage servicing rights.

Note 9—Derivative Financial Instruments

 

The Company is exposed to price risk relative to its mortgage loans held for sale as well as to its IRLCs. The Company bears price risk from the time an IRLC is made to PMT or a loan applicant to the time the mortgage loan is sold. The Company is exposed to loss in value of its IRLCs and mortgage loans held for sale when mortgage rates increase. The Company is also exposed to loss in value of its MSRs when interest rates decrease.

 

28



Table of Contents

 

The Company engages in interest rate risk management activities in an effort to reduce the variability of earnings caused by changes in market interest rates. To manage this price risk resulting from interest rate risk, the Company uses derivative financial instruments acquired with the intention of reducing the risk that changes in market interest rates will result in unfavorable changes in the value of the Company’s IRLCs, inventory of mortgage loans held for sale and MSRs.

 

The Company does not use derivative financial instruments for purposes other than in support of its risk management activities other than IRLCs, which are generated in the normal course of business when the Company commits to purchase or originate mortgage loans held for sale. The Company records all derivative financial instruments at fair value and records changes in fair value in current period income.

The amount of the Carried Interest received by the Company depends on the Investment Funds’ future performance. As a result, the amount of Carried Interest recorded by the Company at period end is subject to adjustment based on future results of the Investment Funds and may be reduced in future years. However, the Company is not required to pay guaranteed returns to the Investment Funds and the amount of Carried Interest will only be reduced to the extent of amounts previously recognized.

 

Management expects the Carried Interest to be collected by the Company when the Investment Funds liquidate. The commitment period for the Investment Funds ended on December 31, 2011. The Investment Fund limited liability company and limited partnership agreements specify that the funds will continue in existence through December 31, 2016, subject to three one-year extensions by PCM at its discretion.

Note 13—Borrowings

 

As of March 31, 2014, the Company maintained five borrowing facilities: four facilities that provide for sales of mortgage loans under agreements to repurchase; and one note payable secured by MSRs and servicing advances made relating to certain loans in the Company’s loan servicing portfolio.

 

Mortgage Loans Sold Under Agreement to Repurchase

 

The borrowing facilities secured by mortgage loans held for sale are in the form of loan sale and repurchase agreements. Eligible loans are sold at advance rates based on the loan type. Interest is charged at a rate based on the buyer’s overnight cost-of funds rate for one agreement and based on LIBOR for the other three agreements. Loans sold under these agreements may be re-pledged by the lenders.

The Company is subject to margin calls during the period the agreements are outstanding and therefore may be required to repay a portion of the borrowings before the respective agreements mature if the value (as determined by the applicable lender) of the mortgage loans securing those agreements decreases. The Company had $1.5 million on deposit with its mortgage loan repurchase agreement counterparties at March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013. Such amounts are included in Other assets on the consolidated balance sheets.

The note payable matures on October 31, 2014. Interest is charged at a rate based on the lender’s overnight cost-of-funds. The note payable is secured by servicing advances and MSRs relating to certain loans in the Company’s servicing portfolio, and provides for advance rates ranging from 50% to 85% of the amount of the servicing advances or the carrying value of the MSR pledged, up to a maximum of $17 million in the case of servicing advances and $100 million in the case of MSRs.

 

The borrowing facilities contain various covenants, including financial covenants governing the Company’s net worth, debt to equity ratio, profitability and liquidity. Management believes that the Company was in compliance with these requirements as of March 31, 2014.

 

Excess Servicing Spread Financing

 

In conjunction with the Company’s purchase from non-affiliates of certain MSRs on pools of Agency-backed residential mortgage loans, the Company has entered into sale and assignment agreements which are treated as financings and are carried at estimated fair value with changes in fair value recognized in current period income. Under these agreements, the Company sold to PMT the right to receive ESS cash flows relating to certain MSRs. The Company retained all ancillary income associated with servicing the loans and a fixed base servicing fee. The Company continues to be the servicer of the mortgage loans and provides all servicing functions, including responsibility to make servicing advances.

As of March 31, 2014, the Company has 16.7 million units available for future awards. The Company estimates the cost of the stock options, time based restricted stock units and performance based restricted stock units awarded with reference to the fair value of PFSI’s underlying common stock on the date of the award. Compensation costs are fixed, except for the performance based restricted stock units, at the grant’s estimated fair value on the grant date as all grantees are employees of PennyMac and directors of the Company. Expense relating to awards is included in Compensation in the consolidated statements of income.

Note 19—Income Taxes

 

For the quarter ended March 31, 2014, the Company’s effective tax rate was 11.3%. The difference between the Company’s effective tax rate and the statutory rate is primarily due to the allocation of earnings to the noncontrolling interest unitholders. As the noncontrolling interest unitholders convert their ownership units into the Company’s shares, it expects an increase in allocated earnings that will be subject to corporate federal and state statutory tax rates, which will in turn increase its effective income tax rate.

Note 23—Segments and Related Information

 

Since the date of the Company’s IPO, the Company has continued its development of internal management reporting. Such development has resulted in changes in the information that is provided to the Company’s chief operating decision maker. Accordingly, during the quarter ended March 31, 2014, management re-evaluated this new information in relation to its definition of its operating segments.

 

As a result of the new reporting provided to the chief operating decision maker, management has concluded that its mortgage banking operations should be disclosed as two segments: loan production and loan servicing. Accordingly, the following segment disclosure includes three segments: loan production, loan servicing and investment management. Prior period segment disclosures have been restated to conform segment disclosures for the quarter ended March 31, 2013 to those for the quarter ended March 31, 2014.

 

Two of the segments are in the mortgage banking business: loan production and loan servicing. The loan production segment performs origination, acquisition and sale activities. The loan servicing segment performs servicing of newly originated mortgage loans and servicing of mortgage loans sourced and managed by the investment management segment, including executing the loan resolution strategy identified by the investment management segment relating to distressed mortgage loans.

 

The investment management segment represents the activities of the Company’s investment manager, which include sourcing, performing diligence, bidding and closing investment asset acquisitions, managing correspondent lending activities for PMT and managing the acquired assets for the Advised Entities.

Note 24—Subsequent Events

 

Management has evaluated all events and transactions through the date the Company issued these consolidated financial statements. During this period:

 

·                  On April 29, 2014, the Company entered into a letter of intent with a third party to purchase a $3.5 billion unpaid principal balance portfolio of Ginnie Mae MSRs. PMT intends to purchase from the Company approximately $26.0 million of ESS from this MSR portfolio. The MSR acquisition by the Company and PMT’s purchase of ESS are subject to the negotiation and execution of definitive documentation, continuing due diligence and customary closing conditions and approvals. There can be no assurance that the committed amounts will ultimately be acquired or that the transactions will be completed at all.

 

·                  On April 30, 2014, the Company, through PLS, entered into an amendment to its amended and restated master repurchase agreement, dated as of May 3, 2013, by and among Credit Suisse First Boston Mortgage Capital LLC, on the one hand, and PLS and PennyMac, on the other hand (the “Repurchase Agreement”).  Pursuant to the terms of the amendment, the maximum aggregate purchase price provided for in the Repurchase Agreement was increased from $300 million to $800 million for the purpose of financing government loans serviced by PLS that are either re-performing or severely delinquent and, in either case, purchased by PLS out of Ginnie Mae securities (the “GNMA Loans”). The re-performing GNMA Loans are held by PLS pending re-securitization while the severely delinquent GNMA Loans are held by PLS pending liquidation or an alternative resolution. Of the $800 million maximum aggregate purchase price, the maximum purchase price with respect to the GNMA Loans is $500 million.

 

·                  Subsequent to March 31, 2014, the Company agreed in principle to sell to a third-party private label MSRs backed by distressed mortgage loans with UPBs of approximately $0.9 billion. The transaction is subject to customary closing conditions and approvals.  There can be no assurance that the committed amount will ultimately be sold or that the transaction will be completed at all.

 

·                  All agreements to repurchase assets that matured between March 31, 2014 and the date of this Report were extended or renewed.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

 

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

 

The following discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the related notes of PennyMac Financial Services, Inc. included within this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

 

Statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q may constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, which may cause actual results to be materially different from those expressed or implied in such statements. You can identify these forward-looking statements by words such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “intend,” “plan” and other similar expressions. You should consider our forward-looking statements in light of the risks discussed under the heading “Risk Factors,” as well as our consolidated financial statements, related notes, and the other financial information appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and our other filings with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are made as of the date hereof and we assume no obligation to update or supplement any forward-looking statements.

 

Overview

 

The following discussion and analysis provides information that we believe is relevant to an assessment and understanding of our consolidated results of operations and financial condition. Unless the context indicates otherwise, references in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to the words “we,” “us,” “our” and the “Company” refer to PennyMac Financial Services, Inc. (“PFSI”).

 

Initial Public Offering and Recapitalization

 

On May 14, 2013, we completed an initial public offering (“IPO”) in which we sold approximately 12.8 million shares of Class A Common Stock par value $0.0001 per share (“Class A Common Stock”) for cash consideration of $16.875 per share (net of underwriting discounts). With the net proceeds from the IPO, we bought approximately 12.8 million Class A units of Private National Mortgage Acceptance Company, LLC (“PennyMac”) and became its sole managing member. We operate and control all of the business and affairs and consolidate the financial results of PennyMac.

 

Before the completion of the IPO, the limited liability company agreement of PennyMac was amended and restated to, among other things, change its capital structure by converting the different classes of interests held by its existing unitholders into Class A units. PennyMac and its existing unitholders also entered into an exchange agreement under which (subject to the terms of the exchange agreement) they have the right to exchange their Class A units for shares of our Class A Common Stock on a one for one basis, subject to customary conversion rate adjustments for stock splits, stock dividends, reclassifications and certain other transactions.

 

Before 2013, PennyMac made an election pursuant to Section 754 of the Internal Revenue Code which remains in effect. As a result of this election, an exchange pursuant to the exchange agreement results in a special adjustment for PFSI that may increase PFSI’s tax basis in certain assets of PennyMac that otherwise would not have been available. These increases in tax basis may reduce the amount of tax that PFSI would otherwise be required to pay in the future and result in increases in investment in PennyMac deferred tax assets net of investment in PennyMac deferred tax liabilities.

 

As part of the IPO, we entered into a tax receivable agreement with the then existing unitholders of PennyMac that provides for payment to such owners of 85% of the tax benefits, if any, that we are deemed to realize under certain circumstances as a result of (i) increases in tax basis resulting from exchanges of Class A units and (ii) certain other tax benefits related to our tax receivable agreement, including tax benefits attributable to payments under the tax receivable agreement.

 

Our Company

 

We are a specialty financial services firm with a comprehensive mortgage platform and integrated business focused on the production and servicing of U.S. residential mortgage loans (activities which we refer to as mortgage banking) and the management of investments related to the U.S. residential mortgage market. We believe that our operating capabilities, specialized expertise, access to long term investment capital, and our management’s experience across all aspects of the mortgage business will allow us to profitably grow these activities and capitalize on other related opportunities as they arise in the future.

 

PennyMac was founded in 2008 by members of its executive leadership team and two strategic partners, BlackRock Mortgage Ventures, LLC, together with its affiliates, and HC Partners LLC, formerly known as Highfields Capital Investments LLC, together with its affiliates.

Table of Contents

 

We conduct our business in three segments: loan production, loan servicing and investment management. Our principal mortgage banking subsidiary, PennyMac Loan Services, LLC (“PLS”), is a non-bank producer and servicer of mortgage loans in the United States. Our principal investment management subsidiary, PNMAC Capital Management, LLC (“PCM”), is an SEC registered investment adviser. PCM manages PennyMac Mortgage Investment Trust (“PMT”), a mortgage real estate investment trust, listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol PMT. PCM also manages PNMAC Mortgage Opportunity Fund, LLC and PNMAC Mortgage Opportunity Fund, LP, both registered under the Investment Company Act, an affiliate of these funds, and PNMAC Mortgage Opportunity Fund Investors, LLC. We refer to these funds collectively as our “Investment Funds” and, together with PMT, as our “Advised Entities.”

 

Mortgage Banking

 

Production

 

Our loan production segment is comprised of two primary businesses: correspondent lending and retail lending.

 

In correspondent lending we manage, on behalf of PMT and for our own account, the acquisition of newly originated, prime credit quality, first lien residential mortgage loans that have been underwritten to investor guidelines. PMT acquires, from approved correspondent sellers, newly originated loans, primarily “conventional” residential mortgage loans guaranteed by the Agencies. For conventional loans, we perform fulfillment activities for PMT and earn a fulfillment fee for each loan purchased by PMT. In the case of government insured loans, we purchase them from PMT at PMT’s cost plus a sourcing fee and fulfill them for our own account.

 

In retail lending we originate new prime credit quality, first lien residential conventional and government-insured mortgage loans on a national basis to allow customers to purchase or refinance their homes. We conduct this business through a consumer direct model, which relies on the Internet and call center based staff to acquire and interact with customers across the country. We do not have a “brick and mortar” branch network and have been developing our consumer direct operations with call centers strategically positioned across the United States.

 

During the quarter ended March 31, 2014, we managed PMT’s acquisition of newly originated, prime credit quality, first lien residential mortgage loans with fair values totaling $5.0 billion. During the quarter ended March 31, 2014, we purchased, for our own account, approximately $3.1 billion of government-insured loans at fair value from PMT and originated $318.3 million of residential mortgage loans at fair value through our retail channel.

 

During the quarter ended March 31, 2013, we managed PMT’s acquisition of newly originated, prime credit quality, first lien residential mortgage loans with fair values totaling $8.8 billion. We purchased, for our own account, approximately $3.5 billion of government-insured loans at fair value from PMT during the quarter ended March 31, 2013. We also originated $268.1 million of residential mortgage loans at fair value through our retail channel during the quarter ended March 31, 2013.

 

Servicing.

 

Our loan servicing segment performs loan administration, collection and default activities, including the collection and remittance of loan payments; response to customer inquiries; accounting for principal and interest; holding custodial (impound) funds for the payment of property taxes and insurance premiums; counseling delinquent mortgagors; and supervising foreclosures and property dispositions. We service a diverse portfolio of loans both as the owner of MSRs and on behalf of other MSR or mortgage owners. We provide prime servicing for conventional and government  insured loans, as well as special servicing for distressed loans that have been acquired as investments by our Advised Entities, and loans in “private label” MBS, which are securities issued by institutions that are not affiliated with any Agency.

 

During the quarter ended March 31, 2014, we increased our portfolio of loans that we serviced or subserviced from approximately $78.2 billion in UPB at December 31, 2013 to approximately $83.8 billion in UPB at March 31, 2014.

 

During the quarter ended March 31, 2013, we increased our portfolio of loans that we serviced or subserviced from approximately $28.2 billion in UPB at December 31, 2012 to approximately $36.2 billion in UPB at March 31, 2013.

 

Investment Management

 

We are an investment manager through an indirect subsidiary, PCM. PCM currently manages PMT and the Investment Funds. PMT and the Investment Funds had combined net assets of approximately $2.1 billion as of March 31, 2014. For these activities, we earn management fees as a percentage of net assets and incentive compensation based on investment performance.

Observations on Current Market Conditions

 

Our business is affected by macroeconomic conditions in the United States, including economic growth, unemployment rates, the residential housing market and interest rate levels and expectations. During the first quarter of 2014, real U.S. gross domestic product expanded at an annual rate of 0.1% compared to revised 1.1% and 2.6% annual rates for the first and fourth quarters of 2013, respectively. The national unemployment rate was 6.7% at March 31, 2014 and compares to a revised seasonally adjusted rate of 7.5% at March 31, 2013 and 6.7% at December 31, 2013. While delinquency rates on residential real estate loans continue to decrease, they remain elevated compared to historical rates.  As reported by the Federal Reserve Bank, during the fourth quarter of 2013, the delinquency rate on residential real estate loans held by commercial banks was 8.2%, a reduction from 10.0% during the fourth quarter of 2012.

 

In addition to economic trends, residential real estate activity was impacted by severe winter weather in many parts of the country during the first quarter of 2014. The seasonally adjusted annual rate of existing home sales for March 2014 was 7.5% lower than for March 2013 and the national median existing home price for all housing types was $198,500, a 7.9% increase from March 2013. On a national level, foreclosure filings during the first quarter of 2014 decreased by 23% as compared to the first quarter of 2013. Foreclosure activity across the country decreased throughout 2013; however, it is expected to remain above historical average levels through 2014 and beyond.

 

Thirty-year fixed mortgage interest rates ranged from a low of 4.30% to a high of 4.43% during the first quarter of 2014 compared to a low of 3.41% and a high of 3.57% during the first quarter of 2013 (Source: the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation’s Weekly Primary Mortgage Market Survey).

 

Changes in fixed rate residential mortgage loan interest rates generally follow changes in long term U.S. Treasury yields. Toward the end of the second quarter of 2013, an increase in these Treasury yields led to an increase in mortgage loan interest rates. As a result of this increase in mortgage loan interest rates, market volumes for mortgage originations have decreased led by a reduction in refinance activity.

 

Mortgage lenders originated an estimated $235 billion of home loans during the quarter ended March 31, 2014, down 58.0% percent from the quarter ended March 31, 2013. Mortgage originations are forecast to continue to decline, with current industry estimates for 2014 totaling $1.2 trillion compared to $1.9 trillion for 2013 (Source: Average of Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac and Mortgage Bankers Association forecasts).

 

In our capacity as an investment manager, we continue to see substantial volumes of distressed residential mortgage loan sales (sales of loan pools that consist of either nonperforming loans, troubled but performing loans or a combination thereof) offered for sale by a limited number of sellers. During the first quarter of 2014, we reviewed 37 mortgage loan pools with UPB totaling approximately $9.2 billion. This compares to our review of 27 mortgage loan pools with unpaid principal balances totaling approximately $5.7 billion during the first quarter of 2013. While we expect to see a continued supply of distressed whole loans, we believe the pricing for recent transactions has been less attractive. We remain patient and selective for PMT in making new investments in distressed whole loans and we continue to monitor the market to assess best execution opportunities for existing distressed portfolio investments held by the Advised Entities.

 

In recent periods, we have seen increased competition from new and existing market participants for loan production, as well as reductions in the overall level of refinancing activity. We believe that this change in supply and demand within the marketplace has been driving lower production margins in recent periods, which is reflected in our results of operations in our gains on mortgage loans acquired for sale. During the first several months of 2013, gains on mortgage loans acquired for sale benefited from wider secondary spreads (the difference between interest rates charged to borrowers and yields on mortgage-backed securities in the secondary market); however, secondary spreads narrowed in subsequent months and we expect them to continue to normalize toward their long-term averages in 2014.

 

During the quarter ended March 31, 2014, we completed acquisitions of MSRs with UPB totaling $2.4 billion, which were partially financed through sale of excess servicing spread to PMT. We continue to see opportunities to acquire MSRs on a bulk and flow basis from banks and independent mortgage lenders. However, recent scrutiny by the Agencies and regulators of similar transactions and the related servicing transfers may reduce the willingness of banks and other lenders to pursue MSR sales and, as a result, reduce the volume of MSRs available for us to acquire.

Comparison of the quarters ended March 31, 2014 and 2013

 

Net income decreased by approximately 11.8 million or 21% from $55.3 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2013 to $43.5 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2014. The decrease in net income from the quarter ended March 31, 2013 to the quarter ended March 31, 2014 is primarily due to the effects of the contraction in the mortgage loan origination market, partially offset by growth in our mortgage loan servicing portfolio. Our mortgage loan production decreased by $778.4 million or 19% for the quarter ended March 31, 2014 when compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2013 while our servicing portfolio increased from $36.2 billion at March 31, 2013 to $83.8 billion at March 31, 2014.

 

Fulfillment fee income on mortgage loans we fulfill for PMT decreased by $19.3 million and net gains on mortgage loans held for sale decreased by $5.4 million. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in funding volume of mortgage loans at PMT and the contraction in the mortgage loan origination market. We also recognized a provision for income taxes relating to income attributable to our common stockholders. Since we were a pass-through tax entity before our IPO, we did not recognize any provision for income taxes for the quarter ended March 31, 2013. Offsetting these declines in net income was an increase in net loan servicing fees of $27.7 million, reflecting continued growth in our MSR portfolio from our loan production activities and from MSR purchases.

 

Net gains on mortgage loans held for sale at fair value

 

During the quarter ended March 31, 2014, we recognized net gains on mortgage loans held for sale at fair value totaling $34.5 million. This compares to net gains on mortgage loans held for sale at fair value totaling $40.0 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2013.

 

The decrease in net gains on mortgage loans held for sale at fair value from the quarter ended March 31, 2013 to the quarter ended March 31, 2014 is due to the effect of increasing price competition in the mortgage loan origination market, which had a negative effect on our margins during the quarter ended March 31, 2014, and to a lesser extent, to a reduction in the volume of mortgage loan sales during the quarter. The net gains for the quarters ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 included $37.5 million and $41.7 million, respectively, in fair value of MSRs received as part of proceeds on sales.

We recognize a substantial portion of our gain on mortgage loans held for sale at fair value before we fund or purchase the loan. In the course of our correspondent and retail lending activities, we make contractual commitments to PMT and to mortgage loan applicants to purchase or fund mortgage loans at specified terms. We call these commitments interest rate lock commitments (“IRLCs”). We recognize the value of IRLCs at the time we make a commitment to PMT or the borrower.

 

We estimate the fair value of an IRLC based on quoted Agency MBS prices, our estimate of the fair value of the MSRs we expect to receive upon sale of the loans and the probability that the mortgage loan will fund or be purchased as a percentage of the commitment we have made (the “pull-through rate”). We update our estimates of the value of the IRLCs as the mortgage loans move through the purchase or loan process for changes in our estimate of the probability the loan will fund and for changes in market interest rates.

An active, observable market for IRLCs does not exist. Therefore, we estimate the fair value of IRLCs using methods and assumptions we believe that market participants use in pricing IRLCs. The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Company’s IRLCs are the pull-through rate and the MSR component of the Company’s estimate of the value of the mortgage loans we have committed to purchase. Significant changes in the pull-through rate and the MSR component of the IRLCs, in isolation, could result in a significant change in fair value measurement. The financial effects of changes in these assumptions are generally inversely correlated as increasing interest rates have a positive effect on the fair value of the MSR component of IRLC value, but rising interest rates increase the pull-through rate for loans that have decreased in fair value.

 

Following is a quantitative summary of key unobservable inputs we used in the valuation of IRLCs:

We receive non-cash proceeds on sale of mortgage loans in the form of MSRs. MSRs represent the value of a contract that obligates us to service mortgage loans on behalf of the purchaser of the loan in exchange for servicing fees and the right to collect certain ancillary income from the borrower. We recognize MSRs at our estimate of the fair value of the contract to service the loans.

 

As economic fundamentals influence the loans we sell with servicing rights retained, our estimate of the fair value of MSRs will also change. As a result, we will record changes in fair value as a component of Net loan servicing fees for the MSRs we carry at fair value, and we may recognize changes in fair value relating to our MSRs carried at the lower of amortized cost or fair value depending on the relationship of the asset’s fair value to its carrying value at the measurement date.

We also provide for our estimate of the losses that we may be required to incur in the future as a result of our breach of representations and warranties provided to the purchasers of the loans we sold. Our agreements with the Agencies include representations and warranties related to the loans we sell to the Agencies. The representations and warranties require adherence to Agency origination and underwriting guidelines, including but not limited to the validity of the lien securing the loan, property eligibility, borrower credit, income and asset requirements, and compliance with applicable federal, state and local law.

 

In the event of a breach of our representations and warranties, we may be required to either repurchase the mortgage loans with the identified defects or indemnify the investor or insurer. In such cases, we bear any subsequent credit loss on the mortgage loans. Our credit loss may be reduced by any recourse we have to correspondent lenders that sold such mortgage loans and breached similar or other representations and warranties. In such event, we have the right to seek a recovery of related repurchase losses from that correspondent lender.

 

Following is a summary of the repurchase activity and unpaid balance of mortgage loans subject to representations and warranties:

During the quarter ended March 31, 2014, we repurchased mortgage loans with unpaid balances totaling $1.9 million. As the outstanding balance of loans we purchase and sell subject to representations and warranties increases and the loans sold begin to season, we expect the level of repurchase activity to increase. As economic fundamentals change and as investor and Agency evaluation of their loss mitigation strategies, including claims under representations and warranties, change, and as the mortgage market and general economic changes affect our correspondent lenders, the level of repurchase activity and ensuing losses will change, which may be material to us.

 

We establish a liability at the time loans are sold and periodically update our liability estimate. We evaluate the adequacy of the balance of our recorded liability for losses under representations and warranties based on our loss experience and our assessment of future losses to be incurred relating to loans we have previously sold and which remain outstanding at the balance sheet date. The method used to estimate the liability for representations and warranties is a function of the representations and warranties given and considers a combination of factors, including, but not limited to, estimated future defaults and loan repurchase rates and the potential severity of loss in the event of defaults and the probability of reimbursement by the correspondent loan seller. The level of our liability for representations and warranties is approved by our senior management credit committee on a quarterly basis.

The level of the liability for losses under representations and warranties is difficult to estimate and requires considerable management judgment. The level of mortgage loan repurchase losses is dependent on economic factors, investor demand strategies, correspondent lender repurchase performance and other external conditions that may change over the lives of the underlying loans. Our representations and warranties are generally not subject to stated limits of exposure. However, we believe that the current UPB of loans sold by us to date represents the maximum exposure to repurchases related to representations and warranties. We believe the amount and range of reasonably possible losses in relation to the recorded liability is not material to our financial condition or results of operations.

Total loan servicing fees increased $36.3 million during the quarter ended March 31, 2014 compared to the same period in 2013. The increase in the quarter ended March 31, 2014 was primarily due to an increase of $27.0 million in loan servicing fees from non-affiliates due to growth in our portfolio of loans serviced as a result of our purchases of MSRs and ongoing sales of mortgage loans with servicing rights retained; an increase of $6.9 million in loan servicing fees from PMT due to growth in the volume of loans we service and subservice for PMT; and an increase of $2.9 million in ancillary fees due to growth in the portfolios of mortgage loans serviced, partially offset by a decrease in loan servicing fees net of mortgage servicing rebate from the Investment Funds of $531,000. This decrease was due to the decrease in the principal balance in the Investment Funds’ mortgage loan portfolios as these portfolios liquidate following the end of the Investment Funds’ investment commitment periods on December 31, 2011.

Amortization, impairment and change in estimated fair value of mortgage servicing rights increased $8.6 million from $5.0 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2013 to $13.6 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2014. The increase in Amortization, impairment and change in estimated fair value of mortgage servicing rights during the quarter ended March 31, 2014 as compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2013 was due to growth in our investment in MSRs, which caused an increase in amortization of the asset and impairment, and expectations for higher prepayment speeds as a result of lower interest rates at quarter end; offset with the positive change in fair value of the excess servicing spread financing.

 

Impairment and changes in fair value of MSRs have a significant effect on net servicing fees, driven primarily by our monthly re-estimation of the fair value of MSRs. As our investment in MSRs grows, we expect that the effect of impairment and changes in fair value will have an increasing influence on our net income. The fair value of MSRs is difficult to determine because MSRs are not actively traded in observable markets. Considerable judgment is required to estimate the fair values of these assets and the exercise of such judgment can significantly affect our income.

 

Our MSR valuation process combines the use of a discounted cash flow model and analysis of current market data to arrive at an estimate of fair value at each balance sheet date. The cash flow and prepayment assumptions used in our discounted cash flow model are based on market factors and include the historical performance of our MSRs, which we believe are consistent with assumptions and data used by market participants valuing similar MSRs.

 

The key assumptions used in the valuation of MSRs include mortgage prepayment and default rates of the underlying loans, the applicable discount rate, and cost to service loans. These variables can, and generally do, change from period to period as market conditions change. Therefore our estimate of the fair value of MSRs changes from period to period. Our senior management valuation committee reviews and approves the fair value estimates of our MSRs.

 

We account for MSRs at either our estimate of the asset’s estimated fair value with changes in fair value recorded in current period income or using the amortization method with the MSRs carried at the lower of amortized cost or estimated fair value based on how we finance certain of our MSR purchases and whether we believe the underlying mortgages are sensitive to prepayments resulting from changing market interest rates. We have identified an initial mortgage interest rate of 4.5% for MSRs originated through our lending activities as the threshold for whether such mortgage loans are sensitive to changes in interest rates:

 

·                  Our risk management efforts in connection with MSRs relating to mortgage loans originated through our lending activities with initial interest rates of more than 4.5% are aimed at moderating the effects of changes in interest rates on the assets’ values.

 

·                  For MSRs relating to mortgage loans with initial interest rates of less than or equal to 4.5% that were acquired as a result of our lending activities, we have concluded that such assets present different risks than MSRs relating to mortgage loans with initial interest rates of more than 4.5% and therefore require a different risk management approach. Our risk management efforts relating to these assets are aimed at moderating the effects of non-interest rate risks on fair value, such as the effect of changes in home prices on the assets’ values. We have identified these assets for accounting using the amortization method.

 

·                  MSRs purchased for which a financing in the form of ESS cash flows has been recorded are accounted for at fair value. The ESS financing at fair value is accounted for at fair value to align the accounting for the MSR with the related liability.

Management fees from PMT increased $1.6 million in the quarter ended March 31, 2014 compared to the same period in 2013. The increase was due primarily to:

 

·                  Base management fees increased due to an increase in PMT’s shareholders’ equity upon which its management fee is based by $320.9 million or 26% from March 31, 2013 through March 31, 2014.

 

·                  Performance incentive fees increased $425,000 in the quarter ended March 31, 2014 compared to the same period in 2013. We began to recognize performance incentive fees as a result of the amendment to our management agreement with PMT effective February 1, 2013, which changed the basis on which profitability is measured for incentive fee purposes. Under the amended agreement, profitability is primarily based on net income determined in compliance with U.S. GAAP. Previously, the agreement based profitability on U.S. GAAP net income generally excluding non-cash gains and losses.

 

Management fees from the Investment Funds increased $121,000 from March 31, 2013 to March 31, 2014. The increase was due to an increase in the Investment Funds’ net asset values, which increased the investment base on which the management fees are computed.

 

Carried Interest from Investment Funds decreased $2.5 million from $4.7 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2013 to $2.2 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2014. Observed market demand for distressed loans, changes in the value of the loans as they proceed through the resolution process and continuing increases in collateral valuations for the properties underlying the Funds’ loans in the quarter ended March 31, 2013 resulted in valuation gains. This was not repeated in the same magnitude in the quarter ended March 31, 2014.

 

Other revenues

 

Net interest expense increased $688,000 from $1.6 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2013 to $2.3 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2014 due to growth in our investments in non-interest earning assets — primarily MSRs which are financed in part with ESS financing. Income from MSRs is included in Net loan servicing fees.

Change in fair value of investment in and dividends received from PMT increased $26,000 in the quarter ended March 31, 2014 compared to the same period in 2013.  The increase was primarily due to an increase in the fair value of our investment in common shares of PMT as of March 31, 2014 as compared to the appreciation in value of our investment in common shares of PMT during 2013. During the quarters ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, we held 75,000 common shares of PMT.

Compensation expense increased $7.2 million from $35.7 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2013 to $42.9 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2014. The increase in compensation expense was due to the development of and growth in our loan servicing segment as well as stock-based compensation reflecting the amortization of equity awards that we granted to our directors and certain employees of PennyMac.

 

Loan origination expense decreased $1.1 million from $2.5 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2013 to $1.4 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2014. The decrease was due to decreased loan production in 2014 compared to 2013.

 

Technology expense increased $1.2 million from $1.6 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2013 to $2.8 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2014. The increase was due to growth in loan servicing operations and continued investment in loan production infrastructure.

 

Servicing expense increased $1.6 million from $1.5 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2013 to $3.1 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2014. The increase was due to growth in our mortgage servicing portfolio.

 

Expenses Allocated to PMT

 

PMT reimburses us for other expenses, including common overhead expenses incurred on its behalf by us, in accordance with the terms of our management agreement with PMT.  The expense amounts presented in our income statement are net of these allocations.  Expense amounts allocated to PMT during the quarters ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 are summarized below:

The amount of total expenses that we allocated to PMT increased $286,000 from $2.3 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2013 to $2.6 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2014. The increase was due to growth in our overhead expenses as well as growth in PMT’s balance sheet, resulting in an increase in the proportion of our overhead expenses being allocated to PMT.

 

Provision for Income Taxes

 

For the quarter ended March 31, 2014, our effective tax rate was 11.3%. The difference between our effective tax rate and the statutory rate is primarily due to the allocation of earnings to the noncontrolling interest unitholders. As the noncontrolling interest unitholders convert their ownership units into our shares, we expect an increase in allocated earnings that will be subject to corporate federal and state statutory tax rates, which will in turn increase our effective income tax rate.

Total assets increased $176.1 million from $1.6 billion at December 31, 2013 to $1.8 billion at March 31, 2014. The increase was primarily due to an increase of $186.5 million in mortgage loans held for sale at fair value and an increase of $45.5 million in MSRs, resulting from growth in our mortgage banking operations and growth in our investment in MSRs, partially offset by a decrease in cash and short-term investments of $94.9 million as we deployed proceeds from sales of ESS to fund balance sheet growth.

 

Total liabilities increased by $130.2 million from $955.3 million as of December 31, 2013 to $1.1 billion as of March 31, 2014. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase in mortgage loans sold under agreements to repurchase of $96.1 million and an increase in liabilities relating to the sale of ESS to PMT of $12.3 million.

 

Cash Flows

 

Comparison of quarters ended March 31, 2014 and 2013

 

Our cash flows resulted in a net increase in cash of $6.7 million during the quarter ended March 31, 2014. Cash used in operating activities totaled $170.4 million during the quarter ended March 31, 2014. The cash used in operating activities were primarily due to growth of our mortgage loans held for sale portfolio as origination and purchases of loans exceeded loan sales.

 

Net cash provided by investing activities was $71.2 million during the quarter ended March 31, 2014. The net cash provided reflects a decrease in our short-term investment as we deployed the proceeds to fund balance sheet growth. The short-term investment proceeds were from sales of ESS in 2013.

 

Net cash provided by financing activities was $105.9 million during the quarter ended March 31, 2014. Cash provided by financing activities was primarily due to sales of loans under agreements to repurchase.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Our liquidity reflects our ability to meet our current obligations (including our operating expenses and, when applicable, the retirement of, and margin calls relating to, our debt, and margin calls relating to hedges on our commitments to purchase or originate mortgage loans), fund new originations and purchases, and make investments as we identify them. We expect our primary sources of liquidity to be through cash flows from business activities, earnings on our investments and proceeds from borrowings, proceeds from issuance of ESS financing and/or additional equity offerings. We believe that our liquidity is sufficient to meet our current liquidity needs.

 

56



Table of Contents

 

Our current leverage strategy is to finance our assets where we believe such borrowing is prudent, appropriate and available. Our borrowing activities are in the form of sales of mortgage loans under agreements to repurchase, ESS financing and a note payable secured by mortgage servicing rights and servicing advances.

 

Our repurchase agreements represent the sales of mortgage loans together with agreements for us to buy back the mortgage loans at a later date. During the quarter ended March 31, 2014, the average balance outstanding under agreements to repurchase mortgage loans totaled $291.1 million, and the maximum daily amount outstanding under such agreements totaled $567.7 million. During the quarter ended March 31, 2013, the average balance outstanding under agreements to repurchase mortgage loans totaled $275.1 million, and the maximum daily amount outstanding under such agreements totaled $479.9 million.

 

The difference between the maximum and average daily amounts outstanding was due to increases in the sizes and utilization of our existing facilities, all in support of the growth in our mortgage loan production, investments and correspondent lending activities.

 

All of our borrowings discussed above have short-term maturities. The transactions relating to mortgage loans under agreements to repurchase mature between July 1, 2014 and January 30, 2015 and provide for the repurchase from major financial institution counterparties based on the estimated fair value of the mortgage loans sold. Our note payable secured by mortgage servicing rights and loan servicing advances at fair value has a maturity date of October 31, 2014.

 

PLS’s debt financing agreements require it to comply with various financial covenants. The most significant financial covenants currently include the following:

 

·                  positive net income during each calendar quarter;

 

·                  a minimum in unrestricted cash and cash equivalents of $200 million;

 

·                  a minimum tangible net worth of $90 million;

 

·                  a maximum ratio of total liabilities to tangible net worth of 10:1; and

 

·                  at least one other warehouse or repurchase facility that finances amounts and assets similar to those being financed under our existing debt financing agreements.

 

Although these financial covenants limit the amount of indebtedness that we may incur and affect our liquidity through minimum cash reserve requirements, we believe that these covenants currently provide us with sufficient flexibility to successfully operate our business and obtain the financing necessary to achieve that purpose.

 

With respect to servicing that we perform for PMT, we are also subject to certain covenants under its debt agreements. These covenants are similar to those above, with the additional covenant that we must maintain a minimum servicing portfolio of $5 billion in UPB.

 

Our debt financing agreements also contain margin call provisions that, upon notice from the applicable lender at its option, require us to transfer cash or, in some instances, additional assets in an amount sufficient to eliminate any margin deficit. A margin deficit will generally result from any decline in the market value (as determined by the applicable lender) of the assets subject to the related financing agreement. Upon notice from the applicable lender, we will generally be required to satisfy the margin call on the day of such notice or within one business day thereafter, depending on the timing of the notice.

 

We have purchased portfolios of MSRs and have financed them in part through the sale to PMT of the right to receive ESS. The repayment of the ESS financing is based on amounts received on the underlying mortgage loans.

 

We continue to explore a variety of additional means of financing our continued growth, including debt financing through bank warehouse lines of credit, additional repurchase agreements and corporate debt. However, there can be no assurance as to how much additional financing capacity such efforts will produce, what form the financing will take or whether such efforts will be successful.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements and Aggregate Contractual Obligations

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements and Guarantees

 

As of March 31, 2014, we have not entered into any off-balance sheet arrangements or guarantees.

 

Contractual Obligations

 

As of March 31, 2014, we had on-balance sheet contractual obligations of $567.7 million to finance assets under agreements to repurchase under facilities with maturities between July 1, 2014 and January 30, 2015. We also had a contractual obligation of $48.8 million relating to a note payable secured by mortgage servicing rights and loan servicing advances at fair value and with a maturity date of October 31, 2014. We also lease our primary office facilities under an agreement that expires on February 28, 2017 and we license certain software to support our loan servicing operations.

Debt Obligations

 

As described further above in “Liquidity and Capital Resources,” we currently finance certain of our assets through borrowings with major financial institution counterparties in the form of sales of mortgage loans under agreements to repurchase, and a note payable secured by mortgage servicing rights and loan servicing advances. The borrower under each of these facilities is PLS, and all obligations thereunder are guaranteed by Private National Mortgage Acceptance Company, LLC.

 

Under the terms of these agreements, PLS is required to comply with certain financial covenants, as described further above in “Liquidity and Capital Resources,” and various non-financial covenants customary for transactions of this nature. As of March 31, 2014, we were in compliance in all material respects with these covenants.

 

The agreements also contain margin call provisions that, upon notice from the applicable lender, require us to transfer cash or, in some instances, additional assets in an amount sufficient to eliminate any margin deficit. Upon notice from the applicable lender, we will generally be required to satisfy the margin call on the day of such notice or within one business day thereafter, depending on the timing of the notice.

Table of Contents

 

In addition, the agreements contain events of default (subject to certain materiality thresholds and grace periods), including payment defaults, breaches of covenants and/or certain representations and warranties, cross-defaults, guarantor defaults, servicer termination events and defaults, material adverse changes, bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings and other events of default customary for these types of transactions. The remedies for such events of default are also customary for these types of transactions and include the acceleration of the principal amount outstanding under the agreements and the liquidation by our lenders of the mortgage loans or other collateral then subject to the agreements.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

 

Market risk is the exposure to loss resulting from changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices, equity prices, real estate values and other market-based risks. The primary market risks that we are exposed to are credit risk, interest rate risk, prepayment risk, inflation risk and market value risk.

 

The following sensitivity analyses are limited in that they were (i) performed at a particular point in time, (ii) only contemplate certain movements in interest rates, (iii) do not incorporate changes in interest rate volatility or changes in the relationship of one interest rate index to another, (iv) are subject to the accuracy of various models and assumptions used, including prepayment forecasts and discount rates, and (v) do not incorporate other factors that would affect our overall financial performance in such scenarios, including operational adjustments made by management to account for changing circumstances. For these reasons, the following estimates should not be viewed as an earnings forecast.

Factors That May Affect Our Future Results

 

This Report contains certain forward- looking statements that are subject to various risks and uncertainties. Forward- looking statements are generally identifiable by use of forward-looking terminology such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “potential,” “intend,” “expect,” “seek,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “approximately,” “believe,” “could,” “project,” “predict,” “continue,” “plan” or other similar words or expressions. Forward-looking statements are based on certain assumptions, discuss future expectations, describe future plans and strategies, contain financial and operating projections or state other forward- looking information. Examples of forward-looking statements include the following:

 

·                  Projections of our revenues, income, earnings per share, capital structure or other financial items;

 

·                  Descriptions of our plans or objectives for future operations, products or services;

 

61



Table of Contents

 

·                  Forecasts of our future economic performance, interest rates, profit margins and our share of future markets; and

 

·                  Descriptions of assumptions underlying or relating to any of the foregoing expectations regarding the timing of generating any revenues.

 

Our ability to predict results or the actual effect of future events, actions, plans or strategies is inherently uncertain. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, our actual results and performance could differ materially from those set forth in the forward-looking statements. There are a number of factors, many of which are beyond our control that could cause actual results to differ significantly from management’s expectations. Some of these factors are discussed below.

 

You should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statement and should consider the following uncertainties and risks, as well as the risks and uncertainties discussed elsewhere in this Report and as set forth in Item IA. of Part II hereof and the section entitled “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013, filed with the SEC on March 14, 2014 .

 

Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from historical results or those anticipated include but are not limited to:

 

·                  The continually changing federal, state and local laws and regulations applicable to the highly regulated industry in which we operate;

 

·                  Lawsuits or governmental actions if we do not comply with the laws and regulations applicable to our businesses;

 

·                  The creation of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (“CFPB”), its recently effective and future rules and the enforcement thereof by the CFPB;

 

·                  Changes in existing U.S. government-sponsored entities, their current roles or their guarantees or guidelines;

 

·                  Changes to government mortgage modification programs;

 

·                  The licensing and operational requirements of states and other jurisdictions applicable to our businesses, to which our bank competitors are not subject;

 

·                  Foreclosure delays and changes in foreclosure practices;

 

·                  Certain banking regulations that may limit our business activities;

 

·                  Changes in macroeconomic and U.S. residential real estate market conditions;

 

·                  Difficulties inherent in growing loan production volume;

 

·                  Difficulties inherent in adjusting the size of our operations to reflect changes in business levels;

 

·                  Purchase opportunities for mortgage servicing rights and our success in winning bids;

 

·                  Changes in prevailing interest rates;

 

·                  Increases in loan delinquencies and defaults;

 

·                  Our reliance on PMT as a significant source of financing for, and revenue related to, our mortgage banking business;

 

·                  Any required additional capital and liquidity to support business growth that may not be available on acceptable terms, if at all;

 

·                  Our obligation to indemnify third-party purchasers or repurchase loans if loans that we originate, acquire, service or assist in the fulfillment of, fail to meet certain criteria or characteristics or under other circumstances;

 

·                  Our obligation to indemnify PMT and the Investment Funds if our services fail to meet certain criteria or characteristics or under other circumstances;

 

·                  Decreases in the historical returns on the assets that we select and manage for our clients, and our resulting management and incentive fees;

 

·                  The extensive amount of regulation applicable to our investment management segment;

 

·                  Conflicts of interest in allocating our services and investment opportunities among ourselves and our Advised Entities;

 

·                  The potential damage to our reputation and adverse impact to our business resulting from the ongoing negative publicity focused on Countrywide Financial Corporation, given the former association of certain of our officers with that entity; and

 

·                  Our recent rapid growth.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures
