WALTER INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT CORP. ANNOUNCES SECOND QUARTER 2011 FINANCIAL RESULTS

(Tampa, Fla.) — Walter Investment Management Corp. (NYSE Amex: WAC) (“Walter Investment” or the “Company”) today announced results for the quarter ended June 30, 2011.

The Company reported a loss before income taxes for the quarter ended June 30, 2011 of $3.5 million, or $0.13 per diluted share as compared to income before income taxes for the second quarter 2010 of $8.9 million, or $0.34 per diluted share. Results for the quarter were significantly impacted by $9.1 million, or $0.34 per diluted share, of transaction costs expensed during the quarter related to the acquisition of GTCS Holdings LLC (“Green Tree”). Excluding these items, income before income taxes for the quarter ended June 30, 2011 would have been $5.6 million, or $0.21 per diluted share. The net loss for the second quarter of 2011 was $3.4 million, or $0.13 per diluted share as compared to net income for the second quarter 2010 of $8.6 million, or $0.32 per diluted share.

Earnings from the Walter Investment loan portfolio remained stable and portfolio performance remained strong, though results for the quarter reflected lower advisory fee income, higher real estate owned expenses and higher claims expenses in the insurance business.

“The second quarter was a transformative one for Walter Investment, as we completed the acquisition of Green Tree on July 1,” said Mark J. O’Brien, Walter Investment’s Chairman and CEO, “Throughout the second quarter and continuing more recently, the secular shifts in the industry which motivated us to make this strategic acquisition have continued to gain momentum. We believe Walter Investment is well-positioned to capitalize on these opportunities, allowing us to significantly grow revenues from recurring, fee-based sources with high operating margins. I want to express my appreciation to all the members of the Walter Investment and Green Tree teams for their efforts to bring these two companies together and to position us to take advantage of these opportunities.”

Second Quarter 2011 Financial and Operating Highlights

•

Significant variances in income (loss) before income taxes for the second quarter of 2011 as compared to the year-ago period included: $9.1 million of transaction costs related to the Green Tree acquisition, $1.2 million of higher insurance claims resulting principally from the severe weather experienced by the southeastern United States during the quarter, an increase in net losses on protective advances of $0.8 million, a reduction to net interest margin of $0.8 million related to actions undertaken to monetize assets in order to fund the acquisition of Green Tree, and a decrease in advisory revenues of $0.3 million. The period also included other miscellaneous charges of approximately $0.2 million.

•

Consolidated delinquencies were 4.58 percent at June 30, 2011, as compared to 4.73 percent at March 31, 2011 and 4.26 percent at June 30, 2010. The slightly higher delinquency rates as compared to the year-ago period reflect acquisitions of delinquent loans. Excluding loans which were delinquent when acquired, delinquency rates would have been 4.24 percent at June 30, 2011.

•

On an annualized basis, the asset yield for the quarter ended June 30, 2011 was 10.15 percent and the Company’s interest cost on outstanding debt was 6.36 percent. The net interest margin for the quarter, which is net interest income as a percentage of average earning assets, was 4.92 percent.

•

Loss severities were 15.4 percent in the second quarter, as compared to 16.3 percent for the first quarter of 2011 and 14.3 percent in the second quarter of 2010. Loss severities are calculated as the loss on sale of REO properties (including all costs incurred through disposition) divided by the historical cost basis of REO sold.

Charles E. Cauthen, Walter Investment’s President and COO, said, “Our high-touch servicing approach continues to drive superior results from our portfolio, lowering levels of nonperforming assets while maintaining consistent recovery rates and low levels of delinquencies. We believe that our servicing capabilities combined with the Green Tree servicing platform will produce these exceptional results for both our owned portfolio and those portfolios owned by our customers.”

Second Quarter 2011 Financial Summary

Net interest income for the quarter was $20.4 million as compared to $21.2 million in the year-ago period. The decrease resulted primarily from higher average outstanding debt balances in the current quarter.

The provision for loan losses was $0.9 million, compared with $1.7 million in the year-ago period. The decrease from the year earlier period was primarily driven by improving delinquencies leading to lower default rates.

Non-interest income was $6.0 million in the second quarter of 2011 as compared to $3.2 million in the prior year period, primarily from additional subservicing revenues and fees related to the Marix acquisition offset by lower collections on insurance advances and a decline in advisory revenues.

Non-interest expenses increased from $13.7 million in the second quarter of 2010 to $29.0 million for the second quarter of 2011. The increase in non-interest expense reflects $3.5 million of higher servicing and overhead costs related to the Marix acquisition and the $9.1 million of transaction costs related to the acquisition of Green Tree. Additionally, the Company incurred $1.2 million of increased claims expenses as a result of the severe weather and other factors experienced in the southeastern United States during the quarter, a $0.9 million adjustment for a decline in value on its REO properties and had an increase of approximately $0.8 million in tax and escrow advances.

Other Highlights

On July 1, 2011, the Company completed its previously announced acquisition of Green Tree, transforming Walter Investment into a leading business services company focused on recurring, fee-based revenues generated from an “asset-light” platform. Walter Investment’s future financial statements will reflect the operations of Green Tree.

Green Tree, based in St. Paul, Minnesota, is a leading independent, fee-based business services company which provides high-touch, third-party servicing of credit-sensitive consumer loans. Green Tree brings to Walter Investment a high-growth platform, with long-standing relationships with a diverse, blue chip customer base.
