Forward-Looking Statements

 

This report contains statements that plan for or anticipate the future.  Forward-looking statements include statements about the future of operations involving the mortgage brokerage or loan business, statements about our future business plans and strategies, and most other statements that are not historical in nature.  In this report, forward-looking statements are generally identified by the words “anticipate,” “plan,” “intend,” “believe,” “expect,” “estimate,” and the like.  Although management believes that any forward-looking statements it makes in this document are reasonable, because forward-looking statements involve future risks and uncertainties, there are factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied.  For example, a few of the uncertainties that could affect the accuracy of forward-looking statements include the following:

 

 

The competitive and regulatory pressures faced by the Company in the mortgage industry;

 

The hiring and retention of key employees;

 

Expectations and the assumptions relating to the execution and timing of growth strategies;

 

The assumption of unknown risks or liabilities from past or future business combination transactions;

 

A further decline in the economy;

 

A significant increase in interest rates;

  A failure to increase our warehouse lines of credit to generate additional loan originations and related revenue;
 

A loss of significant capacity in the Company’s warehouse lines of credit;

 

The loss from any default on mortgage loans originated by us before they are sold to third parties;

 

The loss of profitable branch offices from our network;

 

Uncertainty of the secondary mortgage market;

 

Inability to expand market presence through recruiting;

 

Failure to successfully generate loan originations or otherwise market our services;

 

Failure to roll-out our full correspondent lending platform; and
 

Failure to comply with HUD guidelines including but not limited to minimum net worth.

 

In light of the significant uncertainties inherent in the forward-looking statements made in this report, the inclusion of this information should not be regarded as a representation by us or any other person that our objectives and plans will be achieved.

NOTE 1 – NATURE OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Company Background

As used herein and except as otherwise noted, the term “Company” shall mean PSM Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation.

 

The Company was incorporated under the laws of the State of Utah on March 12, 1987, as Durban Enterprises, Inc. On July 19, 2001, Durban Enterprises, Inc., created a wholly­owned subsidiary called Durban Holdings, Inc., a Nevada corporation, to facilitate changing the domicile of the Company to Nevada. On August 17, 2001, Durban Enterprises, Inc. merged with and into Durban Holdings, Inc., leaving the Nevada corporation as the survivor. The Company retained the originally authorized 100,000,000 shares at $0.001 par value.

 

On May 18, 2005, Durban Holdings, Inc. completed the acquisition of all of the outstanding stock of PrimeSource Mortgage, Inc., a Texas corporation, by a stock for stock exchange in which the stockholders of PrimeSource Mortgage, Inc. received 10,250,000 shares, or approximately 92% of the outstanding stock of Durban Holdings, Inc. Following the acquisition, effective May 18, 2005, the name of the parent “Durban Holdings, Inc.”, was changed to “PSM Holdings, Inc.” For reporting purposes, the acquisition was treated as an acquisition of the Company by PrimeSource Mortgage, Inc. (reverse acquisition) and a recapitalization of PrimeSource Mortgage, Inc. The historical financial statements prior to May 18, 2005, are those of PrimeSource Mortgage, Inc. Goodwill was not recognized from the transaction.

 

On December 14, 2011, PSM Holdings, Inc., created a wholly­owned subsidiary called PSM Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation, to facilitate changing the domicile of the Company to the State of Delaware. On December 29, 2011, PSM Holdings, Inc. merged with and into PSM Holdings, Inc., leaving the Delaware corporation as the survivor. The Company retained the originally authorized 100,000,000 shares at $0.001 par value.

 

Business Activity

PSM Holdings, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries (the “Company” or “PSMH”) originates mortgage loans funded either directly off the Company’s warehouse lines of credit or through brokering transactions to other third parties. Approximately 90% of the Company’s mortgage origination volume is banked off of our current warehouse lines. The Company has relationships with multiple investors who purchase the loans funded on its warehouse lines. All of the Company’s lending activities are conducted by its subsidiary, PrimeSource Mortgage, Inc. (“PSMI”).

 

Historically, a significant portion of the Company’s business has been referral based and purchase orientated (versus refinance). The Company does not directly participate in the secondary markets and, further, does not maintain a servicing portfolio. Approximately 75% of total loan applications are generated from business contacts and previous client referrals. Realtor referrals and other lead sources like Costco account for the balance of loan applications.

 

The Company currently operates or is licensed in the following states: Arkansas, California, Colorado, Florida, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Missouri, Minnesota, Montana, Nebraska, New Jersey, New Mexico, North Dakota, Oklahoma, Oregon, Texas, Utah, Washington and Wisconsin and has started the application process in additional states throughout the United States.

 

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission for the presentation of interim financial information, but do not include all the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. It is recommended that these consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2013, which were filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 30, 2013 on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2013. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and six months ended December 31, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending June 30, 2014.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The following summary of significant accounting policies of the Company is presented to assist in the understanding of the Company’s financial statements. The financial statements and notes are the representation of PSM Holdings, Inc.’s management who is responsible for their integrity and objectivity. The financial statements of the Company conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) is the accepted standard-setting body for establishing accounting and financial reporting principles.

 

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of PSM Holdings, Inc., its wholly-owned subsidiary WWYH, Inc., and WWYH Inc.’s wholly-owned subsidiary PrimeSource Mortgage, Inc. All material intercompany transactions have been eliminated in the consolidation.

 

Use of Estimates

Management uses estimates and assumptions in preparing financial statements.  Those estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and the reported revenues and expenses.  Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.  Significant estimates include the value of other non-current assets, including intangible assets, estimated depreciable lives of property, plant and equipment, estimated valuation of deferred tax assets due to net operating loss carry-forwards and estimates of uncollectible amounts of loans and notes receivable.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

For the purposes of the statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and cash in checking and savings accounts, and all investment instruments with an original maturity of three months or less.

 

Restricted Cash

The Company has certain cash balances set aside as collateral to secure various bonds required pursuant to the licensing requirements in some of the states in which it conducts business.

 

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable represent commissions earned and fees charged on closed loans that the Company has not received. Accounts receivable are stated at the amount management expects to collect from balances outstanding at period-end. The Company estimates the allowance for doubtful accounts based on an analysis of specific accounts.

 

Employee Advances, Notes and Loans Receivable

Employee advances, note and loan receivable are stated at the unpaid principal balance. Interest income, if any, is recognized in the period in which it is earned. The Company estimates an allowance for doubtful employee accounts based on analysis of certain accounts, the employee's standing in the Company and the employee's anticipated production.

 

Loans Held For Sale

The Company originates all of its residential real estate loans with the intent to sell them in the secondary market. Loans held for sale consist primarily of residential first and second mortgage loans that are secured by residential real estate throughout the United States.

 

Loans held for sale are recorded at their fair value, with the exception of any loans that have been repurchased from investors on which the Company did not elect the fair value option. Approximately twelve loans held for sale as of December 31, 2013 have yet to be sold to investors. These loans are being serviced by one investor until these loans can be sold to an investor in the future. The loans are not considered impaired and are being carried on the balance sheet at market value.

PSM HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

 

The fair value of loans held for sale is determined using current secondary market prices for loans with similar coupons, maturities and credit quality. Loans held for sale are pledged as collateral under the Company’s warehouse lines of credit. The Company relies substantially on the secondary mortgage market as all of the loans originated are sold into this market.

 

Interest on mortgage loans held for sale is recognized as earned and is only accrued if deemed collectible. Interest is generally deemed uncollectible when a loan becomes three months or more delinquent or when a loan has a defect affecting its salability. Delinquency is calculated based on the contractual due date of the loan. Loans are written off when deemed uncollectible.

 

Prepaid Expenses

Generally, prepaid expenses are advance payments for products or services that will be used in operations during the next 12 months. However, the Company engages an independent third party to perform a five-year outreach campaign to borrowers after their loan is funded. These amounts are capitalized and amortized equally each quarter over five years. Other prepaid expenses consist of prepaid insurance, rents and prepaid services provided by outside consultants. Prepaid expenses amounted to $316,255 and $161,717 at December 31, 2013 and June 30, 2013, respectively.

 

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets as follows. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred.

 

Furniture, fixtures and office equipment (years)

    5       -       7  

Computer equipment (years)

            5          

 

Goodwill and Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets

Goodwill acquired in business combinations is assigned to the reporting entity that is expected to benefit from the combination as of the acquisition date. Goodwill impairment is determined using a two­step process. The first step of the process is to compare the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount, including goodwill. In performing the first step, the Company determines the fair value of its reporting entity by using a discounted cash flow ("DCF") analysis. Determining fair value using a DCF analysis requires the exercise of significant judgments, including judgments about appropriate discount rates, perpetual growth rates and the amount and timing of expected future cash flows. If the fair value of a reporting entity exceeds its carrying amount, goodwill of the reporting entity is not impaired and the second step of the impairment test is not required. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, the second step of the goodwill impairment test is required to be performed to measure the amount of impairment, if any. The second step of the goodwill impairment test compares the implied fair value of the reporting entity’s goodwill with the carrying amount of that goodwill. The implied fair value of goodwill is determined in the same manner as the amount of goodwill recognized in a business combination. If the carrying amount of the reporting entity’s goodwill exceeds the implied fair value of that goodwill, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to that excess.

 

The impairment test for indefinite­lived intangible assets involves a comparison of the estimated fair value of the intangible asset with its carrying value. If the carrying value of the indefinite­lived intangible asset exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to that excess.

 

Long-Lived Assets and Intangible Assets with Definite Lives

Long­lived assets, including property and equipment and intangible assets with definite lives, are tested for recoverability whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amount may not be recoverable. The carrying amount of a long­lived asset is not recoverable if it exceeds the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the asset. If the carrying amount is deemed to not be recoverable, an impairment loss is recorded as the amount by which the carrying amount of the long­lived asset exceeds its fair value. Amortization of definite lived intangible assets is recorded on a straight­line basis over their estimated lives.

Income Taxes

Income taxes are provided for the tax effects of transactions reported in the financial statements and consist of taxes currently due plus deferred taxes related primarily to differences between the bases of certain assets and liabilities for financial and tax reporting. The deferred taxes represent the future tax return consequences of those differences, which will either be deductible or taxable when the assets and liabilities are recovered or settled. In addition, there is the deferred tax asset which represents the economic value of various tax carryovers.

 

Taxes Collected and Remitted to Governmental Authorities

When applicable, the Company collects gross receipts taxes from its customers and remits them to the required governmental authorities. Related revenues are reported net of applicable taxes collected and remitted to governmental authorities.

 

Advertising

Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising expense was $163,732 and $361,652 for the three and six months ended December 31, 2013 compared to advertising expense of $243,898 and $429,641 for the three and six months ended December 31, 2012, respectively. 

 

Share Based Payment Plan

Under the 2012 Stock Incentive Plan, the Company can grant stock or options to employees, related parties, and unrelated contractors in connection with the performance of services provided to the Company by the awardees. The Company uses the fair value method to account for employee stock compensation costs and to account for share based payments to non-employees.

 

Revenue Recognition

The Company’s revenue is derived primarily from revenue earned from the origination and sale of mortgage loans. Revenues earned from origination of mortgage loans is recognized on the earlier of the settlement date of the underlying transaction or the funding date of the loan. Loans are funded through warehouse lines of credit and are sold to investors, typically within 14 days. However, in the current six months, the Company has added additional investors and modified its processes to be fully delegated with these investors. The Company has been experiencing a longer delay in purchasing of these loans, closer to 34 days on average. The Company believes this is temporary and will return to more normal timeframes as these processes mature. The gain or loss on the sale of loans is realized on the date the loans are sold.

   

The Company receives an override fee on the warehouse lines of credit on loans closed on the lines. The revenue from the override fees is recognized as earned when the loan is sold off of the warehouse line.

 

Earnings Per Common Share

Earnings per common share are computed using the two-class method. Basic earnings per common share are computed by dividing net income allocated to common shares by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the applicable period, excluding outstanding participating securities. Participating securities include unvested restricted shares. Unvested restricted shares are considered participating securities because holders of these securities receive non-forfeitable dividends at the same rate as holders of the Company’s common stock. Diluted earnings per share are computed by dividing net income allocated to common shares adjusted for reallocation of undistributed earnings of unvested restricted shares by the weighted average number of shares determined for the basic earnings per common share computation plus the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents using the treasury stock method.

 

Compensated Absences

The Company records an accrual for accrued vacation at each period end. Other compensated absences are expensed as incurred.

On December 1, 2010, the Company’s subsidiary, PSMI, formerly known as UCMC, executed a Promissory Note (“Note”) with an unrelated third party for a principal sum of $360,000. The principal and any unpaid interest shall be due and payable in full on December 1, 2016. Based on the inconsistent pattern of interest payments received by the Company in the past, there exists substantial doubt about the ultimate collectability of the Note. As such, the Company has reserved 100% of the outstanding balance as uncollectible as of September 30, 2013. The Company recorded interest income of $0 and $910 for the six months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

 

On December 31, 2010, PSMI executed a Letter of Repayment with three employees in the amount of $189,654 for funds advanced to them as a loan. These loans are unsecured, non-interest bearing and due on demand. Payments of these loans are made from the portion of commissions earned by these employees. If the employees’ employment is terminated for any reason, the loan outstanding will become due and payable in full or specific arrangements will be made. The Company has reserved all but approximately $11,000 for these 2010 advances. Since May 1, 2013, the Company has agreed to advance $7,500 per month as a draw against future production for one employee in charge of a new region. The region began to close and fund loans in October 2013 and the advances, which total $60,000, are anticipated to be repaid over the next several months.

It is the Company’s policy to assess the carrying value of its intangible assets for impairment on a quarterly basis, or more frequently, if warranted by circumstances. Management has determined that the intangible assets acquired as a result of acquisitions are not impaired because the Company accumulated a positive regulatory reputation for running a well-documented, process oriented mortgage lending operation with Full Eagle status in place. The Company acquired two profitable operations effective July 1, 2011, one effective August 1, 2011, and one effective November 1, 2011 because of the Full Eagle status. Therefore, no impairment of intangible assets was recorded in the accompanying financial statements as of December 31, 2013.

The Company had $14,340,551 in loans outstanding against the warehouse lines of credit, and had obtained commitments from the third party investors to purchase the loans outstanding against this line of credit, thus offsetting the loans payable on this line against the loans receivable of $14,369,676 from the third party investors as of December 31, 2013. The Company has recorded the amounts receivable against the loans of $14,369,676 and related liability against the lines of credit of $14,340,551 in the accompanying financial statements as of December 31, 2013. Subsequent to December 31, 2013, approximately 95% of the loans outstanding on the credit lines have been purchased by the secondary lenders.

As of December 31, 2013, the Company has granted 2,573,338 shares of common stock or stock options valued at $843,112 to employees and consultants under 2012 Plan and 3,426,662 common shares remained unissued and available for future issuances.

 

Other Stock Issuances

On January 31, 2012, the Company entered into an agreement with a consultant for providing investor relations and business advisory services and issued a total of 600,000 shares of common stock valued at $390,000, of which 50,000 shares were issued on February 2, 2012 and 550,000 shares were issued on March 8, 2012. On May 9, 2012, the Company entered into another agreement with the same consultant for business advisory services and issued 125,000 shares of common stock valued at $81,250. As part of the same contractual agreement dated May 9, 2012, the Company issued shares to two other consultants on May 16, 2012 totaling 850,000 shares. The common shares issued were valued at the contractual agreement dates of January 31, 2012 and May 9, 2012. The shares underlying these agreements were issued as follows: the Company issued 125,000 shares valued at $81,250 on April 30, 2012, 850,000 shares valued at $552,500 on June 4, 2012. On June 25, 2012, the Company issued 100,000 shares valued at $59,000 to another consultant. The common shares issued were valued at the closing share price on the date of closing of the transaction or at the fair value on the contractual agreement date.

 

On July 15, 2012, the Company and the consultant mutually agreed to cancel the January 31, 2012 and May 9, 2012 agreements, and agreed to enter into a new consulting agreement dated July 16, 2012 for issuance of 425,000 shares of common stock for providing business advisory and consulting services to the Company for a period of six months. On July 15, 2012, the Company and the consultant mutually agreed that the consultant will accept the remaining unvested common shares from the January 31, 2012 and May 9, 2012 contracts amounting to 434,492 common shares for a value of $82,670 instead of receiving 425,000 newly issued shares per the July 16, 2012 agreement.

 

On August 17, 2012, the Company cancelled the unvested 637,498 shares of the 850,000 common shares issued to the two remaining consultants pursuant to the May 9, 2012 agreement and recorded the cancellation as a charge of $637 to common stock and additional paid in capital. The Company recorded a charge of $204,715 to additional paid in capital and reduced the prepaid expenses for the same amount upon cancellation of these two agreements.

 

In July 2011, the Company commenced a private placement offering to raise capital up to $975,000 through the sale of up to 13 Units at $75,000 per Unit, with each Unit consisting of 100,000 shares of common stock and 100,000 warrants. The warrants issued in conjunction with the offering are exercisable at $1.00 per share and are exercisable starting on the closing date of the offering and expiring September 14, 2014. As of December 31, 2013, the Company had sold 1,234,328 shares to accredited investors and received cash proceeds of $925,738.

 

Total common shares issued and outstanding under all stock plans at December 31, 2013 were 29,468,259.

Pursuant to the preferred stock transaction on February 5, 2013, and in accordance with the placement agent agreement, the Company issued warrants to purchase 1,140,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to the placement agent and its associates as placement fees in the above transaction. The warrants are exercisable at $0.44 and expire on February 5, 2018. The fair value of warrants was determined to be $398,497 calculated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model using the assumptions of risk free discount rates of 0.88%, volatility 130.21%, five-year term and dividend yield of 0%. Since the warrants were issued in conjunction with the capital raise, no expense was recorded related to the warrants.

NOTE 10 – INCOME (LOSS) PER COMMON SHARE

 

The Company’s outstanding options and warrants to acquire common stock and unvested shares of restricted stock totaled 7,699,328 as of December 31, 2013. These common stock equivalents may dilute earnings per share.

 

For the three and six months ended December 31, 2013, basic and diluted loss per share was the same as the effect of dilutive securities would have been anti-dilutive.

 

For the three and six months ended December 31, 2012, basic net income per common share applicable to common stockholders was computed on the basis of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per common share applicable to common stockholders was computed on the basis of the weighted average number of common shares and dilutive securities outstanding.  Dilutive securities having an anti-dilutive effect on diluted net income per share were excluded from the calculation.

 

Basic and diluted net income per share for the three and six months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 was calculated as follows:

NOTE 11 – COMMITMENTS

 

Nationwide By Owners License

The agreement between NWBO and the Company calls for the establishment of a National Processing Center for the collection, origination and tracking of the sales lead database. Upon completion of a National Processing Center, the Company has also committed to provide year-end bonuses under the license agreement which the parties can elect to take in cash, stock, or any combination of the two. Bonus cash will be calculated by multiplying the annual net profit of the National Processing Center by the following percentage rates: 15% for the initial five-year term of the license agreement, 20% for the first automatic renewal term, 25% for the second automatic renewal term, and 30% for the third automatic renewal term and all subsequent annual renewal terms. Should the parties elect to take all or part of the bonus in common stock, the number of shares awarded will be calculated according to the base value of the shares as defined in the agreement. No accrual has been recorded for the year-end bonuses because the National Processing Center has not been established. As agreed to by NWBO and the Company, the National Processing Center has been delayed indefinitely while NWBO rolls out its new product offering and strategy discussed below.

 

Also, pursuant to the agreement with NWBO, the Company has committed to pursue obtaining, in good faith and diligently, the appropriate licenses to originate mortgages in all 50 states of the United States.

 

Historically the Company has not gathered data on the number of leads and loans closed, and commissions earned and paid, relating to the NWBO license since the branch offices are managed independently and may choose not to use these lead generating opportunities. However, management believes the number of leads could grow significantly based on the new strategy and product offering available to the Company. NWBO has dramatically evolved from their original model which focused solely on sale by owners.  The revised model is now focused around a consumer-centric realtor model with a significant focus on mobile technology tools and social media marketing strategies. NWBO expanded its initial Smart Sign technology into a proprietary software called eNfoDelivered, which is now a lead acquisition, lead development and lead delivery platform.  A second proprietary software called Path2Sell Systems was launched in August of 2013.  These two platforms combine to provide PSMI access to the feature-rich toolkit of marketing tools mentioned above as well as training, administration and support.  While helping to add to a loan origination pipeline, Path2Sell Systems allow a much greater focus on tools deliverable in each lending center/branch; tools specific to create greater leverage with local realtor and home builder contacts.

 

The Company has developed a method to measure the value of the NWBO license. The method is a computation based on revenue from new and existing branches and the incremental volume the NWBO license should generate for the Company’s existing and future branches. The computation is prepared each quarter. The computed value of the license is compared to the book value of the license at the end of each period to determine if there is any impairment in the carrying value of the license. The book value is determined by the original cost of the license less accumulated amortization as of the end of the period. The value of the license recorded on the balance sheet is at its book value. The book value of the license was less than the estimated computed value at December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012.

Employment agreements

The Company entered into employment agreements with its officers and key employees to retain their services through the year ended June 30, 2014. The Company’s practice is to revise employment agreements as they become due to make the agreements at will requiring no more than 60 days termination notice by either party. The Company did recently renew the employment agreement for its Executive Vice President and Chairman which was renewed as a one year agreement (See Subsequent Events footnote). 

 

Lease commitments

On April 8, 2013, the Company executed a five-year lease on approximately 4,000 square feet of office space for its corporate office location in Oklahoma City. The lease requires an initial deposit of $90,000 for build out of the office space and a monthly lease payment of $8,132 in year one, increasing to $8,636 in year five.

 

The Company leases office space for its branches and property and equipment under cancellable and non-cancellable lease commitments. The monthly rent for office premises and property and equipment is $105,077. The leases expire between October 2013 and July 2018. Total rent expense recorded for the three and six months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 was $289,828, $540,146, $204,736 and $423,553, respectively.

NOTE 12 – FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

 

The Company uses a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value such that the highest priority is given to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (level 3 measurements).  The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:

 

Level 1

Inputs to the valuation methodology are unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the Company has the ability to access.

  

  

Level 2

Inputs to the valuation methodology include:

 

 

Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets;

 

Quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets;

 

Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability;

 

Inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.

 

  If the asset or liability has a specified (contractual) term, the Level 2 input must be observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.

  

  

Level 3

Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.

 

The asset’s or liability’s fair value measurement level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Valuation techniques used maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. See Note 1 for discussion of valuation methodologies used to measure fair value of investments.

The valuation methodologies described above may produce a fair value calculation that may not be indicative of net realizable value or reflective of future fair values. Furthermore, while the Company believes its valuation methods are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different fair value measurement at the reporting date.

 

Other than cash, which is determined using Level 1 inputs, and intangible assets, which were determined using level 3 inputs, the fair value of the assets and liabilities was determined using Level 2 inputs. The carrying amounts and fair values of the Company’s financial instruments at December 31, 2013 and June 30, 2013 are as follows:

NOTE 13 - INDUSTRY RISKS

 

The mortgage industry has gone through a significant change over the past four years. Foreclosures have caused a credit tightening, making qualifying for loans more difficult for many borrowers. The Company has not experienced credit losses because the Company either has sold the loan prior to or shortly after closing or simply does not fund the loans they originate. The U.S. housing market as a whole has undergone a significant contraction with lenders and investors tightening their credit standards, making the mortgage origination volumes flat. The historically low rates that the industry experienced during most of 2012 and 2013 had generated a significant volume of refinance business. In June of 2013, the rates increased noticeably which has led to less refinance business and more competitive pricing pressures for the remaining lenders. The impact of the changing rate environment on the Company’s operations has directly impacted the Company’s volume and gross revenue in the most recently completed quarter. In addition, the mortgage industry is experiencing significant regulatory changes which began during 2011 and are continuing through 2014 and beyond, requiring mortgage brokers to significantly modify their operations or seek out merger or sale opportunities in order to comply with the new regulations. Although the Company is trying to combat these issues through various cost adjustments and recruiting of new production, the future impact of these initiatives cannot be determined with any certainty.

NOTE 14 - CONCENTRATIONS

 

Concentration of Customer

The Company entered into two warehouse line of credit agreements with a mortgage banker whose Executive Vice President is a member of the Board of Directors of the Company, for up to $75,000,000 each, bearing annual interest rates of 5% each, for funding residential mortgage loans. Per the terms of the agreements, the Company could be required to repurchase the loans subject to certain terms and conditions. The outstanding combined balance on these two warehouse lines of credit as of December 31, 2013 was $12,883,547. Subsequent to December 31, 2013, approximately 95% of the loans outstanding on the credit lines have been purchased by investors.

 

The Company recorded revenues of $3,029,442, $6,058,014, $4,903,415, and $9,714,987 from one customer who is a related party for the three and six months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

 

Concentration of Credit Risk   

The Company maintains its cash in bank and financial institution deposits that at times may exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts through December 31, 2013. As of December 31, 2013, the Company’s bank balances in some instances exceed FDIC insured amounts.

 

NOTE 15 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 

Departure of Certain Production Offices and Former Directors

In January and February 2014, the branch managers of the Tulsa, OK, Des Moines, IA, St. Louis, MO and Grand Junction, CO offices submitted their resignations from employment with our subsidiary, PSMI. Certain of these individuals were also directors serving on the board of PSMI, roles in which they also resigned from at the same time. Loan originators and other support staff within these locations have also submitted their resignations, and as of February 18, 2014 all employees at these locations have resigned.

 

In connection with these office departures, we are considering the sale to former branch managers or entities controlled by them certain assets utilized in the operation of those facilities.

 

Management is currently evaluating options regarding future business operations in these locations including the impact on certain intangible assets such as goodwill associated with the original purchase of the businesses in 2011.

 

Short-term Financing

Effective February 10, 2014, the Company entered into a short-term Loan Agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) with James Miller and Michael Margolies, directors of the Company, Kevin Gadawski, a director, CEO and CFO of the Company, and Richard Carrington, a shareholder (collectively the “Lenders” and each a “Lender”). Under the terms of the Loan Agreement, the Lenders agreed to loan an aggregate of $385,000 for operating expenses primarily associated with the shut down of certain operating units, as well as to fund growth of the Company. The funds were received by the Company on February 12, 2014. The loans are evidenced by 10% Convertible Promissory Notes (the “Notes”) which bear interest at 10% per annum and mature on February 10, 2015. The Notes are convertible at the lowest per share rate of common stock or common stock equivalents sold in a Qualified Offering by the Company. The term “Qualified Offering” means one or more offerings of debt or equity securities to non-affiliates in the aggregate amount of at least $1,000,000. In addition, each Lender received one common stock purchase warrant (the “Warrants”) for each $2.50 loaned to the Company. Each five-year warrant is exercisable at $0.40 per share, subject to adjustment in the event of the issuance of additional common shares or common stock equivalents at less than the exercise price. The Warrants also provide for cashless exercise. The Warrants are not transferable or assignable without the prior consent of the Company.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations analyzes the major elements of the Company's balance sheets and statements of income.  This section should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2013, and our interim financial statements and accompanying notes to these financial statements filed with this report.

 

Overview

 

PSM Holdings, Inc. (the “Company” or “PSMH”) originates mortgage loans funded either directly off our warehouse lines of credit or through brokering transactions to other third parties. Approximately 90% of our mortgage origination volume is banked off of our current warehouse lines. We have relationships with multiple investors who purchase the loans funded on our warehouse lines. All of our lending activities are conducted by our subsidiary, PrimeSource Mortgage, Inc. (“PSMI”).

 

Historically, a significant portion of the Company's business has been referral based and purchase orientated (versus refinance). The Company does not directly participate in the secondary markets and further does not maintain a servicing portfolio. Approximately 75% of total loan applications are generated from business contacts and previous client referrals. Realtor referrals and other lead sources like Costco account for the balance of loan applications.

 

The Company has retail offices located around the United States from which it derives revenue from the loan origination volume from these offices.  The Company is able to leverage the Company’s warehouse lines of credit relationships with related parties in order to provide it the funding capacity to support anticipated growth. PSMI is licensed in 23 states and operates out of approximately 37 offices around the country.

 

Current Environment

 

Regulatory changes from Federal and State authorities have placed a significant amount of pressure on mortgage companies across the United States.   The regulatory changes have applied operational pressure for deeper and more disciplined internal processes, limitations on loan officer compensation and increased compliance requirements all making it difficult for small to mid market mortgage firms to operate profitably as independent businesses. This dynamic has spurred consolidation in the industry as many firms feel the need to join larger more established platforms. This industry shift has left the remaining mortgage businesses forced to either make the financial investments in their business to operate in today’s environment or become part of a more stable, mature operation that is better suited to compete in a contracting market.

 

Further, since the middle of June 2013, interest rates on mortgages have experienced a significant increase and industry wide volumes have decreased significantly. The increase in rates has directly impacted the refinance business and has led to the market for purchase business being extremely competitive. In addition to the reduced volumes, most of the industry has experienced declining origination margins. The Company cannot predict with certainty that margins and or origination volumes will return to the levels experienced prior to June of 2013.

Strategy For Growth

 

Over the last year, the Company has embarked on a strategy to become a national lending platform that it anticipates other small to medium sized brokers and lenders will want to join as they face challenges due to the changing regulatory environment and mounting competitive pressures on their businesses. Quite simply, the Company wants to be the destination they think of first when they are considering a move. The Company has taken steps to prepare its platform in order to support anticipated growth. Specifically, it has completed a capital raise, hired additional experienced management, strengthened and improved corporate governance, obtained additional state licensing in key markets, implemented programs where its stock is an attractive currency for recruiting and implemented reporting metrics and management analysis tools help management better manage the business. Further, The Company continues to evaluate additional opportunities to monetize origination volume by participating in such things as service release premium and gain on sale in the secondary markets.

 

The Company is one of nine approved lenders designated as preferred mortgage lenders on the Costco Mortgage Services Platform (the “MSP”) that began in January 2010, and is operated and managed by First Choice Bank.  The PrimeSource office in Newport Beach, CA has loan originators dedicated to servicing this platform. The Company intends to significantly increase the number of states it is obtaining Costco leads in during the calendar year 2014. Management believes it has committed the appropriate resources in terms of monetary and human capital to position the Company as a leading lender on this platform.

 

As a result of the market consolidation in the mortgage banking industry, the Company continues to recruit and onboard new entities, as well as work with existing offices to increase their loan originators, locations and production.  During the six months ended December 31, 2013, we added a total of 9 locations through onboarding of other mortgage operations (Kansas, California and Utah). We will continue to recruit loan originators and existing mortgage banking or broker operations as we believe our current infrastructure can support a significant scaling of our operations without the need for additional resources or capital.

 

Results of Operations Three and Six Months Ended December 31, 2013

 

The Company reported a net loss of $(1,215,969) and $(2,741,631) for the three and six months ended December 31, 2013 compared to a net income of $212,000 and $444,482 for the comparable periods in the prior year.  The decrease in income was a direct result of lower production volumes, decreased revenue and increases in both fixed and variable compensation. The Company has taken certain measures to more closely align costs with the current and anticipated productions levels and has transitioned much of the Company’s volume to it’s fully delegated platform which offers additional ways in which the Company can earn revenue on each loan transaction. Additionally, the Company continues to actively recruit new operations and loan officers to its platform in an effort to increase production and revenue.

 

Revenues

Total revenues decreased by $(2,176,046) or 36.4% to $3,797,928 for the three months ended December 31, 2013, as compared to $5,973,974 for the three months ended December 31, 2012. Our total revenues decreased by $(4,266,496) or 36.1% to $7,562,275 for the six months ended December 31, 2013 compared to $11,828,771 for the six months ended December 31, 2012. For the current six-month period, our origination volumes decreased by 121,030,542 compared to the prior year. Additionally, as the entire market experienced reduced origination volumes, competitive pricing pressure increased which directly reduced yield spreads in the current period. The Company believes these competitive pressures and depressed origination volume are likely to continue through the first few calendar quarters of 2014. We anticipate that our recruitment of additional operations in key markets across the country will help offset the declines we are currently experiencing. However, there is no assurance that we will be successful in these efforts and our operating results may continue to decline.

 

Operating Expenses

Total operating expenses decreased by $(769,446) or 13.3% to $5,014,364 for the three months ended December 31, 2013 as compared to $5,783,810 for the prior year period. For the six months ended December 31, 2013, operating expenses amounted to $10,305,420, a reduction of $1,098,634 or 9.6% from the prior six months in which operating expenses amounted to $11,404,054. Our largest single operating cost is compensation, both in terms of fixed salaries and wages and commissions paid on closed loans. During both the three and six month periods ending December 31, 2013, salaries and commissions as a percentage of revenue increased significantly to 92.2% and 92.1% compared to 66.0% and 64.8% for the three and six month periods ended December 31, 2012, respectively. This increase as a percentage of total revenue is directly associated with the newer rules surrounding loan originator compensation in which the loan originators get paid a fixed fee per loan regardless of the profitability of that loan. In the current periods, the competitive landscape was such that overall margins on closed loans were lower yet compensation paid on those loans was unchanged compared to the prior year. We are aggressively looking at modifications to our current compensation structure that would more closely align our compensation and overhead to the future expected origination volume and to industry norms.

Depreciation and amortization expense increased by $15,023 to $76,624 for the three months ended December 31, 2013, and increased by $24,110 to $146,683 for the six months ended December 31, 2013. This is attributed to a higher balance of fixed assets compared to the prior period.

 

Non-operating Income (Expense)

Total non-operating income was $467 and $1,514 for the three months and six months ending December 31, 2013 as compared to non-operating income of $21,836 and $19,765 in the same periods in the prior year. Non-operating income and expense in both periods represented interest income and interest expense with some insurance proceeds in the prior year.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Cash and cash equivalents totaled $1,071,379 as of December 31, 2013. In addition, cash of $500,000 is restricted as collateral against various state licensing bonds. As shown in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, the Company recorded a net loss of $(2,741,631) for the six months ended December 31, 2013, compared to a net income of $444,482 for the comparable period in the prior fiscal year. Current assets exceeded current liabilities by $557,262 at December 31, 2013. The Company incurred a significant reduction in working capital in the recently completed quarter and is implementing various cost reduction initiatives to conserve working cash balances. Additionally, the Company is aggressively recruiting additional mortgage operations to join the platform and increase origination volume and profitability. During the current quarter, the Company closed its first loans as a full correspondent lender. This means that the Company performed all of the back office functions beyond the origination, essentially delivering a closed loan to the ultimate investor. In addition to California, the Company has been funding loans from the New Jersey offices on this platform since October and intends to roll out the platform company wide in February. Operating as a full lender delivering closed loans to investors could increase profitability and improve the ability to recruit additional operations currently operating in a similar manner. There are no assurances that the Company will be successful in rolling out the fully delegated platform throughout the entire Company, or that the Company will be able to successfully recruit additional profitable mortgage operations to join the platform. If the Company is unsuccessful in these initiatives, revenue and profitability may continue to decline and there may not be enough capital to continue to implement growth plans. Further, the Company may be required to raise additional operating capital which would require the issuance of additional equity securities which would dilute our current shareholders. There are no assurances the Company will be successful in raising additional capital and as such, the business could fail.

 

Operating Activities

Net cash used in operating activities for the six months ended December 31, 2013 was $(3,031,485) compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $676,533 for the six months ended December 31, 2012. In the current six-month period, the net loss of $(2,741,631) was the single largest contributing factor to the cash used by operating activities. Other significant items impacting cash used by operating activities were pay down of accrued liabilities in the amount of $(493,648), increase in prepaid expenses and employee advances of $(154,538) and $(51,579), respectively offset somewhat by collection of accounts receivable of $163,721 and an increase in accounts payable of $65,409. In the prior period, net income was $444,482. The other largest contributing factors to cash provided by operating activities were collection of accounts receivable of $227,597, a reduction in prepaid expenses of $180,376 and a pay down of accounts payable of $(325,186).

Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities for the six months ended December 31, 2013, was $(218,394) resulting almost entirely from cash used to purchase property and equipment of $(207,053). For the six months ended December 31, 2012 net cash used in investing activities amounted to $(15,951) resulting from cash used for purchase of property and equipment amounting to $(22,195) offset somewhat by cash received on employee advances of $7,918. The company does not currently have material commitments for capital expenditures and does not anticipate entering into any such commitments during the next twelve months.

 

Financing Activities

Net cash used in financing activities for the six months ended December 31, 2013 was $(194,360) consisting of cash paid for preferred dividends amounting to $(171,000) and cash paid on short term financing of $(23,360). Net cash used in financing activities in the prior year period was $(100,000) consisting of a cash payment of $(100,000) on a loan from a related party.

 

As a result of the above activities, the Company experienced a net decrease in cash of $(3,444,239) for the six months ended December 31, 2013. The Company's ability to continue as a going concern is still dependent on its success in recruiting profitable and stable mortgage businesses, expanding the business of our existing branches, and reducing its current expense structure proportionate to the volumes the Company is currently experiencing and that are expected to continue for the foreseeable future.

 

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

Management’s discussion and analysis of its financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles.  The financial statements reflect the selection and application of accounting policies which require management to make estimates and judgments. (See Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies”).  The Company believes that the following paragraphs reflect accounting policies that currently affect the Company's financial condition and results of operations:

 

Share Based Payment Plan

Under the 2012 Stock Incentive Plan, the Company can grant stock or options to employees, related parties, and unrelated contractors in connection with the performance of services provided to the Company by the awardees. The Company uses the fair value method to account for employee stock compensation costs and to account for share based payments to non-employees.

 

Revenue Recognition

Revenue is derived primarily from revenue earned from the origination of mortgage loans that are funded by third parties. Revenue is recognized as earned on the earlier of the settlement date or the funding date of the loan.  In addition, the Company receives supplemental compensation from our warehouse line providers based on achieving certain production levels which we recognize as revenue when the loans are sold off the warehouse lines.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

The Company has evaluated the possible effects on its financial statements of the accounting pronouncements and accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by FASB that do not require adoption until a future date, and that are not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

The Company does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, revenues, result of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

 

Not required under Regulation S-K for “smaller reporting companies.”

 

Item 4.  Controls and Procedures

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer, who is also our principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), as of the end of the period covered by this report (the “Evaluation Date”). Based on this evaluation, Kevin Gadawski, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, concluded as of the Evaluation Date that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective such that the information relating to PSM Holdings, Inc., including our consolidated subsidiaries, required to be disclosed in our SEC reports (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

We regularly review our system of internal control over financial reporting and make changes to our processes and systems to improve controls and increase efficiency, while ensuring that we maintain an effective internal control environment. There were no other changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended December 31, 2013, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

 

 

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

 

Item 1A. Risk Factors

 

During the three and six months ended December 31, 2013, we incurred significant losses due a variety of factors such as increased interest rates and a downturn in refinancing activities, which has impacted production and revenues. Unless we are able to reverse or mitigate the losses through onboarding profitable operations, becoming a full correspondent lender, and restructuring compensation arrangements with management and loan originators, we may not be able to be profitable or to continue operations under our current operating model.

 

Operating losses as reported in our current financial statements will make it more difficult to attract and onboard additional mortgage operations. If we are unable to onboard a significant number of new profitable operations, we may not generate sufficient revenues to continue current operations.

 

There are no assurances that we will be successful in modifying our current process to become a full correspondent lender throughout our entire Company, that we will be able to successfully recruit additional profitable mortgage operations to our platform, or that we will be able to successfully modify our current cost structure. If we are unsuccessful in these initiatives, our revenue and profitability may continue to decline and we may not have enough capital to continue to implement our growth plans. Further, we may be required to raise additional operating capital which would require the issuance of additional equity securities which would dilute our current shareholders. Please refer to subsequent events discussion titled short-term financing.

Due to increases in interest rates beginning in June 2013, firms who were leveraged in refinance business have now shifted to purchase business which has increased purchase competition significantly. If we are unable to compete with the larger group of competitors, we will not reach profitability and our business could fail.

 

The historically low mortgage interest rates that the industry experienced during most of 2012 and 2013 generated a significant volume of refinance business for mortgage brokerage and lending firms. In June of 2013, these rates increased noticeably which has led to less refinance business in the mortgage industry and more competitive pricing pressures for the remaining lenders. For firms who were principally engaged in the refinance business segment of the mortgage industry, the increase in rates resulted in a shift from refinance to purchase business. The shift has resulted in more mortgage firms refocusing efforts to the purchase mortgage financing, which represents a majority of our business, and has significantly increased the competition for purchase mortgage business which we believe has resulted in fewer mortgage closings by us since June 2013. If we are unable to compete in the increasingly competitive purchase business, we will not reach profitability and our business could fail.
