Includes repricing of Payable to exchanged Private National Mortgage Acceptance Company, LLC unitholders under a tax receivable agreement

 

The new federal tax law resulted in the remeasurement of tax-related items during the fourth quarter, primarily a deferred tax liability that results from deferred gains related to originated MSRs and a deferred tax asset that relates to the step up in basis on exchange of Private National Mortgage Acceptance Company, LLC unitholders for PFSI Class A common stock. In addition, the tax rate change required a remeasurement of amounts payable to exchanged Private National Mortgage Acceptance Company, LLC unitholders under the tax receivable agreement. The remeasurement of these items resulted in an increase in total net revenue of $32.0 million from repricing the tax receivable agreement liability and an income tax benefit of $13.6 million from repricing the net deferred tax liability, and contributed $1.79 to diluted earnings per share for the quarter.

PFSI’s tax provision rate for 2018 was decreased to 27.4 percent from 40.5 percent.

Production Segment

Production includes the correspondent acquisition of newly originated government-insured mortgage loans for PennyMac Financial’s own account, fulfillment services on behalf of PennyMac Mortgage Investment Trust (NYSE: PMT) and consumer direct lending.

PennyMac Financial’s loan production activity for the quarter totaled $17.0 billion in UPB, of which $11.1 billion in UPB was for its own account, and $5.9 billion in UPB was fee-based fulfillment activity for PMT. IRLCs on correspondent government and consumer direct loans totaled $11.8 billion in UPB.

Production segment pretax income was $55.3 million, a decrease of 20 percent from the prior quarter and a decrease of 41 percent from the fourth quarter of 2016. Production revenue totaled $130.9 million, a decrease of 8 percent from the prior quarter and a decrease of 25 percent from the fourth quarter of 2016. The quarter-over-quarter decrease primarily resulted from an $11.3 million decrease in net gains on mortgage loans held for sale driven by a decline in production volume resulting from increased competition and seasonal factors, partially offset by a $7.2 million increase in net interest income driven by the optimization of financing arrangements.

The components of net gains on mortgage loans held for sale are detailed in the following table:

PennyMac Financial performs fulfillment services for conventional conforming loans acquired by PMT in its correspondent production business. These services include, but are not limited to: marketing; relationship management; the approval of correspondent sellers and the ongoing monitoring of their performance; reviewing loan data, documentation and appraisals to assess loan quality and risk; pricing; hedging and activities related to the subsequent sale and securitization of loans in the secondary mortgage markets for PMT. Fees earned from fulfillment of correspondent loans on behalf of PMT totaled $19.2 million in the fourth quarter, down 18 percent from the prior quarter and down 29 percent from the fourth quarter of 2016. The decrease in fulfillment fee revenue was driven by lower acquisition volumes by PMT and a reduction in the weighted average fulfillment fee. The weighted average fulfillment fee rate reflects discretionary reductions to facilitate the successful completion of certain loan transactions by PMT. For the fourth quarter, the weighted average fulfillment fee rate was 33 basis points, down from 36 basis points in the prior quarter.

Production segment expenses were $75.6 million, a 3 percent increase from the prior quarter and a 7 percent decrease from the fourth quarter of 2016. The quarter-over-quarter increase was driven by an increase in allocated incentive-based compensation.

Servicing Segment

Servicing includes income from owned MSRs, subservicing and special servicing activities. Servicing segment pretax income was $32.0 million compared with $24.5 million in the prior quarter and $35.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2016. Servicing segment revenues totaled $128.8 million, a 25 percent increase from the prior quarter and a 19 percent increase from the fourth quarter of 2016. The quarter-over-quarter increase was primarily due to an increase in net loan servicing fees, driven by portfolio growth and MSR fair value changes net of hedge results.

Net loan servicing fees totaled $106.9 million and included $162.0 million in servicing fees reduced by $66.9 million of amortization and realization of MSR cash flows. Valuation-related gains totaled $11.8 million, which includes MSR fair value gains and reversal of impairment for MSRs carried at the lower of amortized cost or fair value of $28.0 million, changes in fair value of the excess servicing spread (ESS) liability resulting in a $4.6 million gain and related hedging losses of $20.8 million. The MSR fair value gains and the reversal of impairment resulted from higher mortgage rates and reduced discount rates on government MSRs, reflecting improved market liquidity for Ginnie Mae MSRs and a reduced risk profile of our MSR portfolio resulting from the early buyout (EBO) of severely delinquent loans.

Servicing segment revenue also included $29.9 million in net gains on mortgage loans held for sale from the securitization of reperforming government-insured and guaranteed loans, compared with $28.2 million in the prior quarter and $24.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2016. These loans were previously purchased out of Ginnie Mae securitizations as EBOs and brought back to performing status through PennyMac Financial’s successful servicing efforts, primarily with the use of loan modifications. Net interest expense totaled $8.2 million, a 147 percent increase from the prior quarter and a 33 percent decrease from the fourth quarter of 2016. Interest income decreased by $2.2 million from the prior quarter, driven by a reduction in modification activity on EBO loans. Interest expense increased by $2.7 million from the prior quarter, driven by the second Ginnie Mae MSR term note issued during the third quarter and higher short-term interest rates.

Servicing segment expenses totaled $96.8 million, a 23 percent increase from the prior quarter and a 33 percent increase from the fourth quarter of 2016. The increase was driven by temporary increases in staffing costs to assist borrowers affected by natural disasters and higher EBO transaction-related expenses from a significant increase in buyout volumes during the quarter. The buyout transactions are expected to benefit future period income through reduced costs and gains on redelivery of performing loans.

The total servicing portfolio reached $245.8 billion in UPB at December 31, 2017, an increase of 3 percent from the prior quarter end and 27 percent from a year earlier. Servicing portfolio growth during the quarter was driven by the company’s loan production activities. Of the total servicing portfolio, prime servicing was $244.5 billion in UPB and special servicing was $1.3 billion in UPB. PennyMac Financial subservices and conducts special servicing for $75.0 billion in UPB, an increase of 5 percent from September 30, 2017. PennyMac Financial’s owned MSR portfolio grew to $166.2 billion in UPB, an increase of 2 percent from the prior quarter end.

Investment Management Segment

PennyMac Financial manages PMT and two private Investment Funds for which it earns base management fees and may earn incentive compensation. Net assets under management were $1.6 billion as of December 31, 2017, down 4 percent from September 30, 2017 and up 2 percent from December 31, 2016. During and after the quarter, PMT repurchased approximately 5.2 million common shares at a cost of $83 million3. The repurchase program allows PMT to acquire its common shares at a discount to book value and enhance equity returns, which we believe aids PMT’s long-run success.

Pretax income for the Investment Management segment was $1.5 million, compared with $0.7 million in the prior quarter and $0.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2016. Management fees, which include base management fees from PMT and the private Investment Funds, decreased 4 percent from the prior quarter and increased 7 percent from the fourth quarter of 2016. No incentive fee was paid by PMT during the quarter, consistent with the prior quarter and the fourth quarter of 2016.

Investment Management segment expenses totaled $4.4 million, a 3 percent increase from the prior quarter and a 16 percent decrease from the fourth quarter of 2016.

Consolidated Expenses

Total expenses for the fourth quarter were $176.9 million, a 13 percent increase from the prior quarter and an 11 percent increase from the fourth quarter of 2016. The quarter-over-quarter increase was driven by higher servicing costs, in addition to higher compensation expense resulting from an increase in incentive-based compensation.

Executive Chairman Stanford L. Kurland concluded, “We remain focused on long-term initiatives to help ensure PennyMac Financial’s growth and success. We continue to make progress on process redesigns in our production businesses that will benefit our consumer direct and broker direct channels, while in our servicing business we have made technology investments and are rolling out new modules to drive workflows and increased efficiency. We also launched our Broker Direct channel which gives us access to an additional 10 percent of the U.S. mortgage market. While the effects of different aspects of the new tax law are uncertain, we believe a strong economy and the stimulus provided by the tax bill bode well for housing and PennyMac Financial’s businesses.”
