WALTER INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT CORP. ANNOUNCES

SECOND QUARTER 2014 FINANCIAL RESULTS

 

 

(Tampa, Fla.) – Walter Investment Management Corp. (NYSE: WAC) (“Walter Investment” or the “Company”) today announced financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2014, as well as updates on operational highlights for the Company.

The Company reported a GAAP net loss for the second quarter of 2014 of $12.9 million, or ($0.34) per diluted share, which includes charges related to goodwill impairment in the Reverse Mortgage segment and reductions in the fair value of the Company’s servicing rights related to changes in valuation inputs. Net income adjusted to reflect these items was $45.0(1) million, or $1.19 per diluted share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2014 as compared to net income of $88.6 million, or $2.36 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2013. Adjusted Pre-Tax Earnings (“APTE”, referred to as “Core Earnings” in prior reported periods)(2) for the second quarter of 2014 was $70.1 million after taxes(1), or $1.86 per diluted share(1), declining 42% as compared to the same quarter last year. AEBITDA for the quarter was $199.4 million, declining 24% as compared to the second quarter of 2013. The noted performance differences in the second quarter of 2014 as compared to the second quarter of 2013 were primarily driven by strong operating results in the originations segment in the second quarter of 2013 due to HARP related retention volumes and margins. Second quarter 2014 results reflect improved results from the first quarter of 2014 in the Originations segment and receipt of performance related fees in the investment management business.

“Walter Investment delivered strong operating results for the quarter as we focused on executing against our strategic plan. Our Servicing segment boarded 289,000 accounts while continuing to enhance the performance of our existing portfolios, lowering delinquencies on our first-lien mortgage portfolios by 28% as compared to the prior year quarter. Additionally we provided more than 14,000 modifications to consumers driving positive outcomes for both consumers and investors. Our Originations segment increased AEBITDA by 138% as compared to the first quarter, originating more than 16,000 HARP loans in the second quarter. In addition, our investment management business recorded significant performance fees in the quarter and in July we completed the initial funding of WCO representing the foundation for future growth in assets under management in this business,” said Mark J. O’Brien, Walter Investment’s Chairman and CEO.

 

(1) Note that this calculation excludes the effect of goodwill impairment, including its impact to the Company’s effective tax rate for 2014. This calculation assumes an effective tax rate of 39%.
(2) Note the calculation of Core Earnings and APTE employ a consistent methodology.

“We believe the combination of strong execution against our strategic plan coupled with ensuring each of our businesses embraces and drives a culture of compliance and positive consumer experience will provide benefits to each of our core constituencies: consumers; clients; our stakeholders; and regulators,” continued O’Brien.

Second Quarter 2014 Financial and Operating Highlights

Total revenue for the second quarter of 2014 was $413.7 million, declining 31% as compared to the prior year quarter. The year-over-year decrease in revenue reflects a $116.3 million decrease in net servicing revenue and fees, primarily driven by a $136.7 million decrease from changes in valuation inputs offset by increased servicing revenue and fees of $31.3 million and a decrease of $91.3 million primarily related to net gain on sales of loans in the Originations segment. All other revenues increased $25.4 million and reflect the impact of a $34.2 million performance fee earned by the Investment Management business. Total revenues increased 12% as compared to the first quarter of 2014 reflecting higher net gains on loan sales of $40.6 million in the Originations segment and higher net fair value gains on reverse loans and related HMBS obligations of $9.7 million offset by lower revenues of $31.8 million in the Servicing segment driven by an increase in changes in valuation assumptions.

Total expense increased from $359.0 million in the second quarter of 2013 to $467.2 million in the second quarter of 2014 primarily driven by the growth in our serviced portfolios and the goodwill impairment charge recorded in the reverse segment. Interest expense increased by $6.4 million over the prior year primarily reflecting increased corporate debt outstanding and increased servicing advance liabilities. Total expenses increased 38% as compared to the first quarter of 2014 including a $43.7 million increase in the Servicing segment reflecting higher servicing costs related to newly boarded portfolios coupled with increased costs for litigation and regulatory matters and an increase of $87.7 million at the Reverse Mortgage segment primarily related to the $82.3 million charge to impair goodwill. Expenses in the Originations segment declined $19.4 million as compared the second quarter of 2013 as a result of cost savings initiatives deployed to align the employee base to the scope and scale of current operations.

Segments

Results for the Company’s segments are presented below.

Servicing

The Servicing segment generated revenue of $127.8 million in the second quarter of 2014, which included $174.9 million of gross servicing fees, $25.6 million of incentive and performance-based fees, and $19.2 million of ancillary and other fees. Servicing revenues for the second quarter of 2014 are net of $9.5 million in amortization on MSRs accounted for at amortized cost and include an $83.6 million reduction related to MSRs accounted for at fair value, driving a 48% decline in servicing segment revenues as compared to the second quarter of 2013.

Expense for the Servicing segment was $179.2 million, which included $9.0 million of depreciation and amortization costs and $10.6 million of interest expense. The segment generated APTE of $21.0 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2014, compared to APTE of $36.1 million in the second quarter of 2013, and AEBITDA of $67.4 million, a decrease of 4% as compared to the prior year period. These results compare to revenue of $169.4 million, expenses of $135.4 million, APTE of $74.6 million and AEBITDA of $112.6 million in the first quarter of 2014 primarily reflecting increased costs associated with the growth of the serviced portfolio.

The Servicing segment ended the quarter with approximately 2.2 million total accounts serviced, with a UPB of approximately $235.2 billion. The application of proprietary protocols to the first lien GSE pools boarded in the first and second quarters of 2013 resulted in a reduction of 30+ day delinquencies by over 470 bps as compared to the end of the second quarter of 2013. During the quarter, the Company experienced a disappearance rate of 13.8%.

Originations

The Originations segment generated revenue of $150.3 million in the second quarter, driven primarily by the consumer lending channel, which targets refinancing and recapture of accounts from the serviced portfolio. Expense for the Originations segment was $86.0 million, which included $6.6 million of interest expense and $4.8 million of

depreciation and amortization. The segment generated APTE of $70.7 million for the second quarter of 2014 and AEBITDA of $71.8 million, a decrease of 52% and 53% respectively as compared to the prior year period resulting from the strong HARP originations volumes and margins experienced in the second quarter of 2013. These results compare to revenue of $109.2 million, expenses of $89.0 million, APTE of $26.9 million and AEBITDA of $30.1 million in the first quarter of 2014. The increase in APTE and AEBITDA as compared to the first quarter resulted primarily from increases in locked volumes in the consumer lending channel related to HARP fundings.

Direct margins in the consumer lending channel were 344 bps in the second quarter of 2014, an increase of 67 bps as compared to the first quarter. Funded loans in the second quarter totaled $4.4 billion, with 52% of that volume in the consumer lending channel and 48% generated by the correspondent lending channel. The total pull-through adjusted locked volume for the second quarter was $5.6 billion, as compared to $3.6 billion for the first quarter.

Reverse Mortgage

The Reverse Mortgage segment generated revenue of $38.7 million for the quarter, which included a $26.9 million gain from the net impact of HECM loan and related HMBS obligation fair value adjustments, $8.8 million in servicing fees and $3.0 million of other revenue. Total expenses for the second quarter were $125.3 million, including $82.3 million of goodwill impairment. The segment reported APTE of ($3.7) million and AEBITDA of ($2.6) million for the second quarter as compared to revenues of $36.0 million, expenses of $45.8 million, APTE of $15.9 million and AEBITDA of $16.9 million for the second quarter of 2013. These results compare to revenue of $27.9 million, expenses of $37.7 million, APTE of ($2.8) million and AEBITDA of ($1.5) million in the first quarter of 2014.

Funded origination volumes in the segment declined 57% as compared to the second quarter of 2013 resulting from continued lower volumes and originated UPB due to regulatory changes to product offerings and underwriting guidelines. Volumes increased 22% as compared to the first quarter of 2014 driven by a 20% increase in retail originations and a 32% increase in correspondent originations.

The reverse mortgage sector and our business have experienced significant changes over the previous 12 months. New regulations, including those relating to product and process changes, have significantly impacted the near-term profitability of the business. We believe that the changes will prove to be beneficial to the sector over time and that the outlook for the sector in the mid-term is positive based on the strong economic and demographic trends. We believe our business is well-positioned to compete and be successful in the future.

Market Commentary and Outlook

Economic conditions as well as fundamental sector drivers continue to provide a supportive environment for our operations. The improving economy and low interest rate environment provides a solid set up for improvement in our portfolio’s performance and a strong environment for our originations segment to maximize the value embedded in our portfolio’s retention opportunity. Large depository institutions and other clients continue to focus on their core customer base and core competencies driving their interest in the sale or outsourcing of non-core assets and related activities such as servicing. Active regulatory oversight of the sector continues but progress is being made and we are seeing an increase in deal flow in the market. Dialogue with our clients remains robust and we firmly believe that we are well-positioned to grow our serviced portfolio through the addition of originated product, flow agreements and portfolio acquisitions. We anticipate future increases in regulatory and compliance expense to be mitigated by efficiency gains and margin improvement as portfolios mature. It is our expectation that in the current environment participants who have scale, are appropriately capitalized, compliant, have significant experience and a strong track record in transferring servicing assets will be best positioned to receive transfers in the future.

Based on our performance through the first half of 2014 and outlook for our key segments through the remainder of the year, including continued softness in our reverse segment, the Company anticipates results for the year are likely to be in the low-to-mid point of its previously provided outlook for 2014. The previously provided outlook includes an Adjusted EBITDA range of $650 to $725 million and an Adjusted Earnings per share after tax range of $5.25 to $6.25. These ranges include estimates for certain business development and growth opportunities, and assume a reasonably consistent economic environment. The 2014 Adjusted Earnings per share after tax range does not include an estimate for future fair value adjustments.

Use of Non-GAAP Measures

We manage our Company in six reportable segments: Servicing, Originations, Reverse Mortgage, ARM, Insurance and Loans and Residuals. We measure the performance of our business segments through the following measures: income (loss) before income taxes, Adjusted Pre-Tax Earnings, and Adjusted EBITDA. Management considers Adjusted Pre-Tax Earnings and Adjusted EBITDA, both non-GAAP financial measures, to be important in the evaluation of our business segments and of the Company as a whole, as well as for allocating capital resources to our segments. Adjusted Pre-Tax Earnings and Adjusted EBITDA are utilized to assess the underlying operational performance of the continuing operations of the business. In addition, analysts, investors, and creditors may use these measures when analyzing our operating performance. Adjusted Pre-Tax Earnings and Adjusted EBITDA are not presentations made in accordance with GAAP and our use of these terms may vary from other companies in our industry.

Adjusted Pre-Tax Earnings is a metric that is used by management as a supplemental metric to evaluate our Company’s underlying key drivers and operating performance of the business. Adjusted Pre-Tax Earnings is defined as net income (loss) before income taxes plus certain depreciation and amortization costs related to the increased basis in assets, including servicing and sub-servicing rights, acquired within business combination transactions, or step-up depreciation and amortization, transaction and integration costs, share-based compensation expense, non-cash interest expense, the net impact of the Non-Residual Trusts, fair value to cash adjustments for reverse loans, and certain other cash and non-cash adjustments, primarily including severance expense and certain other non-recurring start-up costs. Adjusted Pre-Tax Earnings excludes unrealized changes in fair value of MSRs that are based on projections of expected future cash flows and prepayments. Adjusted Pre-Tax Earnings includes both cash and non-cash gains from forward mortgage

origination activities. Non-cash gains are net of non-cash charges or reserves provided. Adjusted Pre-Tax Earnings includes cash generated from reverse mortgage origination activities. Adjusted Pre-Tax Earnings may also include other adjustments, as applicable based upon facts and circumstances, consistent with the intent of providing investors a supplemental means of evaluating our operating performance.

Adjusted EBITDA eliminates the effects of financing, income taxes and depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) before income taxes, depreciation and amortization, interest expense on corporate debt, transaction and integration related costs, the net impact of the Non-Residual Trusts and certain other cash and non-cash adjustments primarily including severance expense, the net provision for the repurchase of loans sold and certain other non-recurring start-up costs. Adjusted EBITDA includes both cash and non-cash gains from forward mortgage origination activities. Adjusted EBITDA excludes the impact of fair value option accounting on certain assets and liabilities and includes cash generated from reverse mortgage origination activities. Adjusted EBITDA may also include other adjustments, as applicable based upon facts and circumstances, consistent with the intent of providing investors a supplemental means of evaluating our operating performance.

Adjusted Pre-Tax Earnings and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as alternatives to (1) net income (loss) or any other performance measures determined in accordance with GAAP or (2) operating cash flows determined in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted Pre-Tax Earnings and Adjusted EBITDA have important limitations as analytical tools, and should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Some of the limitations are:

 

    Adjusted Pre-Tax Earnings and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect cash expenditures, future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;

 

    Adjusted Pre-Tax Earnings and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;

 

    Adjusted Pre-Tax Earnings and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect certain tax payments that may represent reductions in cash available to us;

 

    Adjusted Pre-Tax Earnings and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect any cash requirements for the assets being depreciated and amortized that may have to be replaced in the future;

 

    Adjusted Pre-Tax Earnings and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect the significant interest expense or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on our corporate debt, although they do reflect interest expense associated with our master repurchase agreements, mortgage-backed debt, and HMBS related obligations;

 

    Adjusted Pre-Tax Earnings and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect non-cash compensation which is and will remain a key element of our overall long-term incentive compensation package; and

 

    Adjusted Pre-Tax Earnings and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect the change in fair value of servicing rights due to changes in valuation inputs or other assumptions.

Because of these limitations, Adjusted Pre-Tax Earnings and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as measures of discretionary cash available to us to invest in the growth of our business. We compensate for these limitations by relying primarily on our GAAP results and using Adjusted Pre-Tax Earnings and Adjusted EBITDA only as supplements. Users of our financial statements are cautioned not to place undue reliance on Adjusted Pre-Tax Earnings and Adjusted EBITDA.
