PennyMac Mortgage Investment Trust Reports Second Quarter 2022 Results

PennyMac Mortgage Investment Trust (NYSE: PMT) today reported a net loss attributable to common shareholders of $81.2 million, or $(0.88) per common share on a diluted basis for the second quarter of 2022, on net investment income of $21.5 million. PMT previously announced a cash dividend for the second quarter of 2022 of $0.47 per common share of beneficial interest, which was declared on June 2, 2022 and paid on July 28, 2022 to common shareholders of record as of July 14, 2022.

Second Quarter 2022 Highlights

Financial results:

  • Net loss attributable to common shareholders of $81.2 million, compared to a net loss of $29.6 million in the prior quarter
    • Credit sensitive strategies impacted by fair value decreases resulting from credit spread widening
    • Returns in correspondent production and interest rate sensitive strategies partially offset by $30.9 million of tax provisions in PMT’s taxable REIT subsidiary
  • Repurchased 1.9 million PMT common shares at an average price of $14.72 per share for a cost of $28.4 million; also repurchased an additional 510 thousand shares in July at an average price of $14.30 per share at a cost of $7.3 million
  • Issued $305 million of 5-year term notes secured by Fannie Mae mortgage servicing rights (MSRs)
  • Book value per common share decreased to $16.59 at June 30, 2022 from $17.87 at March 31, 2022

Other investment highlights:

  • Investment activity driven by correspondent production volumes
    • Conventional correspondent loan production volumes of $10.3 billion in unpaid principal balance (UPB), up 6% from the prior quarter
      • Resulted in $171 million in new mortgage servicing rights (MSRs)

“PMT reported a net loss for the second quarter as fair value declines in its credit sensitive strategies due to continued spread widening more than offset strong performance from its strategies excluding the impacts of market-driven fair value changes,” said Chairman and CEO David Spector. “Additionally, PMT recorded a tax expense related to fair value gains on its MSR assets in its taxable REIT subsidiary, which also impacted results. However, the recent increase in spreads has improved our projected return potential for PMT’s investment portfolio going forward and presents opportunities for PMT to invest additional capital at attractive risk-adjusted returns. With our deep management team that has years of experience executing through mortgage cycles, a strong balance sheet, sophisticated financing structures and hedging strategies that mitigate volatility in book value and preserve a strong liquidity position, PMT is well-positioned to deliver attractive returns to its shareholders in the long term.”

The following table presents the pretax income contributions of PMT’s segments:

Credit Sensitive Strategies Segment

The Credit Sensitive Strategies segment primarily includes results from PMT’s organically-created government sponsored enterprise (GSE) credit risk transfer (CRT) investments, investments in non-agency subordinate bonds from private-label securitizations of PMT’s production, opportunistic investments in GSE CRT and other legacy investments. Pretax loss for the segment was $63.7 million on net investment losses of $62.3 million, compared to pretax loss of $56.0 million on net investment losses of $52.7 million in the prior quarter.

Net losses on investments in the segment were $57.8 million, compared to net losses on investments of $44.9 million in the prior quarter and included $42.4 million in net losses on PMT’s organically-created GSE CRT investments, $5.8 million in net losses from investments in non-agency subordinate bonds from PMT’s production and $9.7 million in net losses on other acquired suborindate CRT mortgage-backed securities (MBS).

Net losses on PMT’s organically-created CRT investments for the quarter were $42.4 million, compared to net losses of $35.6 million in the prior quarter, and included $67.0 million in valuation-related losses, which reflected the impact of credit spread widening. The prior quarter included $74.9 million in valuation-related losses. Net losses on PMT’s organically-created CRT investments also included $20.2 million in realized gains and carry, compared to $23.3 million in the prior quarter. Recoveries net of realized losses during the quarter were $4.5 million, down from $16.0 million in the prior quarter primarily related to L Street Securities 2017-PM1, as losses were reversed for loans that had been in forbearance and reperformed. We believe the majority of potential loss reversals related to COVID-19 forbearance plans have been realized and do not expect a meaningful contribution from these loss reversals in the future.

During the quarter, PMT invested $39 million in floating-rate CRT bonds issued by Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae.

Net interest expense for the segment totaled $4.5 million, compared to $8.1 million in the prior quarter. Interest income totaled $5.9 million, up from $2.1 million in the prior quarter primarily due to higher earnings rates on deposits securing CRT arrangements. Interest expense totaled $10.4 million, up from $10.1 million in the prior quarter.

Segment expenses were $1.4 million, down from $3.3 million in the prior quarter.

Interest Rate Sensitive Strategies Segment

The Interest Rate Sensitive Strategies segment includes results from investments in MSRs, Agency MBS, non-Agency senior MBS and interest rate hedges. Pretax income for the segment was $29.4 million on net investment income of $50.2 million, compared to a pretax income of $84.2 million on net investment income of $107.4 million in the prior quarter. The segment includes investments that typically have offsetting fair value exposures to changes in interest rates. For example, in a period with increasing interest rates, MSRs are expected to increase in fair value whereas Agency pass through and non-Agency senior MBS are expected to decrease in fair value.

The results in the Interest Rate Sensitive Strategies segment consist of net gains and losses on investments, net interest income and net loan servicing fees, as well as associated expenses.

Net losses on investments for the segment was $172.8 million and consisted of losses on MBS due to higher interest rates.

Net loan servicing fees were $217.3 million, compared to $304.2 million in the prior quarter. Net loan servicing fees included servicing fees of $151.1 million, up from $146.9 in the prior quarter primarily due to portfolio growth, and $7.2 million in other fees, reduced by $86.6 million in realization of MSR cash flows. Net loan servicing fees also included $220.4 million in fair value increases of MSRs, $78.1 million in related hedging declines, and $3.3 million of MSR recapture income. PMT’s hedging activities are intended to manage the Company’s net exposure across all interest rate sensitive strategies, which include MSRs and MBS.

The fair value of the MSR increased by $220.4 million in the quarter, driven by higher mortgage rates which resulted in expectations for lower prepayment activity in the future. Agency MBS and interest rate hedges decreased in fair value as a result of increases in market interest rates.

Net interest income for the segment was $5.7 million, versus net interest expense of $12.6 million in the prior quarter. Interest income totaled $60.9 million, up from $29.1 million in the prior quarter due to higher average MBS balances and interest rates and increased placement fee income on custodial balances as a result of higher short-term interest rates. Interest expense totaled $55.2 million, up from $41.7 in the prior quarter primarily due to the impact of higher financing costs on larger average MSR and MBS balances.

Segment expenses were $20.8 million, down from $23.2 million in the prior quarter.

Correspondent Production Segment

PMT acquires newly originated loans from correspondent sellers and typically sells or securitizes the loans, resulting in current-period income and additions to its investments in MSRs related to most of its production. PMT’s Correspondent Production segment generated pretax income of $9.8 million, up from $4.6 million in the prior quarter.

Through its correspondent production activities, PMT acquired $21.0 billion in UPB of loans, down 7 percent from the prior quarter. Of total correspondent acquisitions, conventional conforming acquisitions totaled $10.3 billion, and government-insured or guaranteed acquisitions totaled $10.6 billion, up from $9.8 billion and down from $12.7 billion, respectively, in the prior quarter. Interest rate lock commitments on conventional loans totaled $11.1 billion, up from $10.2 billion in the prior quarter.

Segment revenues were $33.6 million, up from $26.5 million the prior quarter and included other income of $14.6 million, which primarily consists of volume-based origination fees, net interest income of $11.3 million, and net gains on loans acquired for sale of $7.7 million. Net gain on loans acquired for sale in the quarter increased from the prior quarter as a result of higher conventional acquisition volumes and gain on sale margins. Interest income was $23.4 million, up from $19.2 million in the prior quarter, and interest expense was $12.1 million, up from $11.6 million in the prior quarter, both due to higher volumes.

Segment expenses were $23.8 million, up from $22.0 million in the prior quarter driven by the increase in acquisition volumes and an increase in the weighted average fulfillment fee rate. The weighted average fulfillment fee rate in the second quarter was 20 basis points, up from 17 basis points in the prior quarter.

Corporate Segment

The Corporate segment includes interest income from cash and short-term investments, management fees, and corporate expenses.

Segment revenues were $24,000, down from $0.6 million in the prior quarter. Management fees were $7.9 million, down from $8.1 million in the prior quarter. Other segment expenses were $7.4 million, up slightly from the prior quarter.

Taxes

PMT recorded a provision for tax expense of $30.9 million primarily driven by fair value increases in MSRs held in PMT’s taxable subsidiary.

Management’s slide presentation will be available in the Investor Relations section of the Company’s website at www.pennymac-reit.com beginning after the market closes on Tuesday, August 2, 2022.
