Walker & Dunlop, Inc. (NYSE: WD) (the "Company") reported
third quarter 2021 total revenues of $346.3
million, an increase of 40% year over year. Net income for
the third quarter of 2021 was $71.7
million or $2.21 per diluted
share, up 35% and 33%, respectively, from the third quarter of
2020. Third quarter total transaction volume of $18.5 billion, a record and up 120% from the
third quarter of 2020, was achieved due to the investments over the
past several years in top bankers and brokers across the country to
meet our customers' needs in an extremely active market. Third
quarter 2021 adjusted EBITDA was a record at $72.4 million, up 60% over the same period in
2020.
"Exceptional people, a dramatically expanded brand, and
innovative technology produced record financial results for Walker
& Dunlop in the third quarter and a 35% increase in net
income," commented Willy Walker, Chairman and CEO. "Fee
based revenue from debt and property brokerage has surged in
2021, boosting Q3 adjusted EBITDA to $72
million, a dramatic 60% increase from Q3 2020. This is due
to the breadth of our service offerings, technology, and the
W&D team collaborating to meet our clients' needs."
Mr. Walker continued, "The growth and diversification of
W&D from a mortgage-focused specialty finance company into a
technology-enabled real estate services firm continues to gain
momentum. Technology played a large role in Q3 record
transaction volume of $18.5 billion.
Multifamily property sales, a business we entered only six
years ago, contributed huge growth in the quarter and is scaling
significantly faster than the market. And our emerging digital
businesses of small loan lending and appraisals grew volumes 69%
and 586%, respectively, leveraging off the people, brand, and
technology of W&D. With only 1,200 employees and an incredibly
healthy commercial real estate market that continues to attract
massive capital flows, W&D is exceptionally well positioned to
continue gaining market share and delivering strong financial
results."

Discussion of Results:
- Agency debt financing volumes increased by 16% in the third
quarter of 2021 compared to the third quarter of 2020, driven by an
increase in the overall lending volumes with Fannie Mae. Our
year-to-date GSE market share has remained strong at 11%. HUD debt
financing volume increased 40% from the prior year as the HUD
product continues to be a favorable source of financing for
multifamily properties, and our team continues to expand and
execute well for our clients.
- The increase in brokered loan originations to a quarterly
record reflects the investments in acquiring and recruiting
commercial mortgage bankers and the significant amount of capital
being invested into U.S. commercial real estate.
- The substantial increase in principal lending and investing
volume, which includes interim loans, originations for Walker &
Dunlop Investment Partners ("WDIP") separate accounts, and interim
lending for our joint venture with Blackstone Mortgage Trust, was
due to a dramatically different view of the credit markets in Q3
2021 from the pandemic-impacted market of Q3 2020 and our team
working closely with our capital partners to deploy capital.
- Property sales volume increased 373% in the third quarter of
2021 due largely to (i) a 45% growth in our property sales team
over the past year, with additions in key markets such as
Miami, Houston and Denver, and (ii) lower overall market activity
during the third quarter of 2020 due to the pandemic.

Discussion of Results:
- Our servicing portfolio continues to grow steadily due to our
significant Agency debt financing volumes and relatively few
maturities and prepayments over the past year compared to the
overall portfolio.
- During the third quarter of 2021, we added $1.6 billion of net loans to our servicing
portfolio, and over the past 12 months, we added $10.5 billion of net loans to our servicing
portfolio, 80% of which were Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac loans.
- Only $5.9 billion of Agency loans
in our servicing portfolio, representing 5% of the total portfolio,
with a relatively low weighted-average servicing fee of 20.1 basis
points, are scheduled to mature over the next two years.
- The increase in the weighted-average servicing fee was
primarily due to an increase in Fannie Mae loans as a percentage of
the overall servicing portfolio year over year, coupled with a
higher weighted-average servicing fee on Fannie Mae debt financing
volumes over the past year.
- We added net mortgage servicing rights ("MSRs") from
originations of $14.3 million in the
quarter and $124.2 million over the
past 12 months.
- The MSRs associated with our servicing portfolio had a fair
value of $1.2 billion as of
September 30, 2021, compared to
$975.0 million as of September 30, 2020.
- Assets under management ("AUM") as of September 30, 2021 consisted of $1.4 billion of loans and funds managed by WDIP
and $918.5 million of loans in our
interim lending joint venture. The year-over-year increase in AUM
is principally related to growth in the interim lending joint
venture.

Discussion of Results:
- The increase in loan origination and debt brokerage fees, net
("origination fees") was driven by the substantial increase in
overall debt financing volume, partially offset by the decrease in
the origination fee margin as shown above resulting from the shift
in transaction mix from 75% Agency loans in 2020 during the
pandemic to 49% Agency loans in 2021. Agency loans typically carry
higher origination fees than brokered loans.
- The increase in MSR income was primarily related to a 16%
increase in Agency debt financing volume year over year. The
decrease in the MSR margin was attributable to the same shift in
transaction mix noted above.
- The $10.5 billion net increase in
the servicing portfolio over the past 12 months was the principal
driver of the growth in servicing fees year over year, combined
with the increase in the servicing portfolio's weighted-average
servicing fee.
- The decrease in net warehouse interest income from loans held
for sale ("LHFS") was due to a 4% decrease in the average balance
of LHFS outstanding and a 21% decrease in the net spread.
- The decrease in net warehouse interest income from loans held
for investment ("LHFI") was due to 17% decreases in both the
average balance of LHFS outstanding and the net spread.
- The increase in property sales broker fees was driven by the
373% increase in property sales volume year over year.
- Other revenues increased principally due to increases in
research subscription fees due to the acquisition of Zelman in the
third quarter of 2021 and prepayment fees.

|
Discussion of Results:
- The increase in personnel expenses was primarily the result of
increased (i) commissions expense due to the increases in
origination fees and property sales broker fees during the third
quarter of 2021, (ii) salaries and benefits costs due to strategic
acquisitions and hiring initiatives that contributed to a 22%
increase in average headcount, (iii) subjective bonuses due to the
increase in headcount and our financial performance, and (iv)
stock-based compensation expense due to a stock grant provided to
the vast majority of our non-executive employees in the fourth
quarter of 2020 and our performance share plans due to our
financial performance.
- Amortization and depreciation increased as a result of the
growth in the average balance of MSRs outstanding year over
year.
- The decrease in the provision (benefit) for credit losses was
primarily attributable to $2.4
million in additional reserves recorded in the third quarter
of 2020 for a loan that defaulted in 2019, with no comparable
activity in the third quarter of 2021.
- The increase in other operating expenses was largely
attributable to increases in travel and entertainment and marketing
costs, both of which are attributable to the overall growth of the
Company over the past year and low costs in these areas in the
third quarter of 2020 due to the pandemic. Additionally,
professional fees increased due to $2.9
million of due diligence costs for our pending acquisition
of Alliant.

Discussion of Results:
- The increase in net income was the result of a 37% increase in
income from operations, primarily driven by the 40% increase in
total revenues year over year.
- Adjusted EBITDA increased year over year largely due to
significantly higher origination fees, property sales broker fees
and other revenues and the increase in servicing fees. These
increases were partially offset by increases in personnel expense
and other operating expenses.
- The decrease in operating margin was due primarily to the
one-time due diligence costs related to the acquisition of
Alliant.
- The increase in return on equity was primarily due to the
substantial increase in Walker & Dunlop net income.

Discussion of Results:
- Our at-risk servicing portfolio, which is comprised of loans
subject to a defined risk-sharing formula, increased due to the
significant level of Fannie Mae loans added to the portfolio during
the past 12 months. As of September 30,
2021, there were two defaulted loans that were provisioned
for in 2019. Both properties have been foreclosed on and final
settlement of any losses will occur in the future upon disposition
of the assets by Fannie Mae.
- The on-balance sheet interim loan portfolio, which is comprised
of loans for which we have full risk of loss, was $238.7 million at September 30, 2021 compared to $273.8 million at September 30, 2020. There was one defaulted loan
in our interim loan portfolio at September
30, 2021, which defaulted and was provisioned for in 2020 as
noted above. All other loans in the on-balance sheet interim loan
portfolio are current and performing as of September 30, 2021. The interim loan joint
venture holds $918.5 million of loans
as of September 30, 2021, compared to
$566.1 million as of September 30, 2020. We share in a small portion
of the risk of loss, and as of September 30,
2021, all loans in the interim loan joint venture are
current and performing.

Discussion of Results:
The 16% increase in total revenues was largely driven by:
Significant Increases
- Origination fees (29%), primarily from the overall increase in
debt financing volume;
- Servicing fees (19%), related to growth in our servicing
portfolio and the weighted-average servicing fee of the
portfolio;
- Property sales broker fees (227%), due to the increase in
property sales volume; and
- Other revenues (55%), mostly from prepayment fees and the
research subscription fees due to the acquisition of Zelman.
Significant Decreases (partially offsetting the
increases noted above)
- MSR income (11%), largely the result of a decrease in Fannie
Mae debt financing volume, partially offset by an increase in the
Agency MSR margin. The decline in Fannie Mae debt financing volume
was largely the result of a Fannie Mae portfolio of over
$2 billion originated in 2020, with
no comparable activity in 2021. The Agency MSR margin increased due
primarily to this large portfolio, which had a lower-than-average
servicing fee;
- Warehouse interest income (34%), due to decreases in LHFS and
LHFI outstanding and net spreads; and
- Escrow earnings and other interest income (62%), primarily from
a substantial year-over-year decline in short-term interest rates
late in the first quarter of 2020, partially offset by an increase
in the average balance of escrow accounts outstanding.
The 17% increase in total expenses was primarily driven by:
Significant Increases
- Personnel expense (31%), primarily due to (i) higher
commissions expense resulting from higher origination fees and
property sales broker fees, (ii) increased salaries and benefits
expenses resulting from a rise in average headcount due to
strategic acquisitions and hiring initiatives, and (iii) larger
stock-based compensation expense due a stock grant provided to the
vast majority of our non-executive employees in the fourth quarter
of 2020 and our performance share plans due to our financial
performance;
- Amortization and depreciation costs (20%), largely due to an
increase in the average balance of MSRs outstanding year over year;
and
- Other operating expenses (31%), primarily resulting from
increases in travel and entertainment, professional fees, marketing
costs, and office expenses, all of which are primarily attributable
to the overall growth of the Company over the past year and low
costs in these areas in 2020 due to the pandemic. Additionally,
included within the increase in professional fees are one-time
due-diligence fess of $2.9 million
associated with our pending acquisition of Alliant.
Significant Decreases (partially offsetting the increases
noted above)
- Provision (benefit) for credit losses (145%), primarily due to
a decrease in the loss rate used for the forecast period to three
basis points as of September 30, 2021
from six basis points as of December 31,
2020 principally due to forecasted low unemployment rates.
During the first nine months of 2020, we recorded a significant
provision expense as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and its
expected impacts on future losses in the at-risk servicing
portfolio under the new CECL accounting standard in addition to
provision expense for a defaulted interim loan.
Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 was $185.8 million and $163.1
million, respectively. The 14% increase in net income
was primarily a result of a 14% increase in income from
operations.
Adjusted EBITDA for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 was $199.6 million and $157.7
million, respectively. The 27% increase was
largely driven by the increases in origination fees, servicing
fees, and property sales broker fees, partially offset by the
decreases in escrow earnings and other interest income and
warehouse interest income and the increases in personnel expenses
and other operating expenses.
The decrease in operating margin was due primarily to the
one-time due diligence costs mentioned above.
The decrease in return on equity was related to a substantial
increase in retained earnings due to our strong financial
performance over the past year, partially offset by the increase in
Walker & Dunlop net income and the impact of dividend
payments.
CAPITAL SOURCES AND USES
On November 3, 2021, our Board of
Directors declared a dividend of $0.50 per share for the fourth quarter of 2021.
The dividend will be paid on November 29,
2021 to all holders of record of our restricted and
unrestricted common stock as of November 19,
2021.
On February 3, 2021, our Board of
Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $75 million of our outstanding common stock over
a one-year period ("2021 Share Repurchase Program"). We have
not repurchased any shares of common stock under the share
repurchase program.
Any future purchases made pursuant to the 2021 Share Repurchase
Program will be made in the open market or in privately negotiated
transactions from time to time as permitted by federal securities
laws and other legal requirements. The timing, manner, price and
amount of any repurchases will be determined by the Company in its
discretion and will be subject to economic and market conditions,
stock price, applicable legal requirements and other factors. The
repurchase program may be suspended or discontinued at any
time.
On October 5, 2021, we announced
plans to refinance our senior secured term loan and increase the
aggregate principal amount to $600
million. We will use the proceeds from the loan to fund
repayment of our existing senior secured term loan and to fund
our pending acquisition of Alliant Capital. The new loan is
expected to have conventional terms for this type of financing and
is anticipated to close in November
2021 simultaneously with the closing of the acquisition of
Alliant, subject to market and other customary conditions and the
closing of the Alliant acquisition. We have received commitments
well in excess of the targeted $600
million.

At-risk servicing
portfolio is defined as the balance of Fannie Mae DUS loans subject
to the risk-sharing formula described below, as well as a small
number of Freddie Mac loans on which we share in the risk of loss.
Use of the at-risk portfolio provides for comparability of the full
risk-sharing and modified risk-sharing loans because the provision
and allowance for risk-sharing obligations are based on the at-risk
balances of the associated loans. Accordingly, we have presented
the key statistics as a percentage of the at-risk
portfolio.
|
|
|
|
For example, a $15
million loan with 50% risk-sharing has the same potential risk
exposure as a $7.5 million loan with full DUS risk sharing.
Accordingly, if the $15 million loan with 50% risk-sharing
were to default, we would view the overall loss as a percentage of
the at-risk balance, or $7.5 million, to ensure comparability
between all risk-sharing obligations. To date, substantially all of
the risk-sharing obligations that we have settled have been from
full risk-sharing loans.

Represents the
maximum loss we would incur under our risk-sharing obligations if
all of the loans we service, for which we retain some risk of loss,
were to default and all of the collateral underlying these loans
was determined to be without value at the time of settlement. The
maximum exposure is not representative of the actual loss we would
incur.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement our financial statements presented in accordance
with United States generally
accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), the Company uses adjusted
EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure. The presentation of adjusted
EBITDA is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a
substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared
and presented in accordance with GAAP. When analyzing our operating
performance, readers should use adjusted EBITDA in addition to, and
not as an alternative for, net income. Adjusted EBITDA represents
net income before income taxes, interest expense on our term loan
facility, and amortization and depreciation, adjusted for provision
(benefit) for credit losses net of write-offs, stock-based
incentive compensation charges, and the fair value of expected net
cash flows from servicing, net. Because not all companies use
identical calculations, our presentation of adjusted EBITDA may not
be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.
Furthermore, adjusted EBITDA is not intended to be a measure of
free cash flow for our management's discretionary use, as it does
not reflect certain cash requirements such as tax and debt service
payments. The amounts shown for adjusted EBITDA may also differ
from the amounts calculated under similarly titled definitions in
our debt instruments, which are further adjusted to reflect certain
other cash and non-cash charges that are used to determine
compliance with financial covenants.
We use adjusted EBITDA to evaluate the operating performance of
our business, for comparison with forecasts and strategic plans and
for benchmarking performance externally against competitors. We
believe that this non-GAAP measure, when read in conjunction with
the Company's GAAP financials, provides useful information to
investors by offering:
- the ability to make more meaningful period-to-period
comparisons of the Company's on-going operating results;
- the ability to better identify trends in the Company's
underlying business and perform related trend analyses; and
- a better understanding of how management plans and measures the
Company's underlying business.
We believe that adjusted EBITDA has limitations in that it does
not reflect all of the amounts associated with the Company's
results of operations as determined in accordance with GAAP and
that adjusted EBITDA should only be used to evaluate the Company's
results of operations in conjunction with net income. For more
information on adjusted EBITDA, refer to the section of this press
release below titled "Adjusted Financial Metric Reconciliation to
GAAP."
Forward-Looking Statements

predictions of or indicate future events or trends and which do not
relate solely to historical matters. You can also identify
forward-looking statements by discussions of strategy, plans, or
intentions.
The forward-looking statements contained in this press release
reflect our current views about future events and are subject to
numerous known and unknown risks, uncertainties, assumptions and
changes in circumstances that may cause actual results to differ

While forward-looking statements reflect our good faith
projections, assumptions and expectations, they are not guarantees
of future results. Furthermore, we disclaim any obligation to
publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement to reflect
changes in underlying assumptions or factors, new information, data
or methods, future events or other changes, except as required by
applicable law. Factors that could cause our results to differ
materially include, but are not limited to: (1) general
economic conditions and multifamily and commercial real estate
market conditions, (2) regulatory and/or legislative changes
to Freddie Mac, Fannie Mae or HUD, (3) our ability to retain
and attract loan originators and other professionals, and
(4) changes in federal government fiscal and monetary
policies, including any constraints or cuts in federal funds
allocated to HUD for loan originations.

Includes $73.3
million as of March 31, 2021, December 31, 2020 and September 30,
2020 of loans managed directly for our interim loan joint venture
partner in addition to interim loan joint venture managed loans. We
indirectly share in a portion of the risk of loss associated with
interim loan joint venture managed loans through our 15% equity
ownership in the joint venture. We had no exposure to risk of loss
for the loans serviced directly for our interim loan joint venture
partner. The balance of this line is included as a component of
assets under management in the Supplemental Operating Data
table.
|
|
|

|
At-risk servicing
portfolio is defined as the balance of Fannie Mae DUS loans subject
to the risk-sharing formula described below, as well as a small
number of Freddie Mac loans on which we share in the risk of loss.
Use of the at-risk portfolio provides for comparability of the full
risk-sharing and modified risk-sharing loans because the provision
and allowance for risk-sharing obligations are based on the at-risk
balances of the associated loans. Accordingly, we have presented
the key statistics as a percentage of the at-risk portfolio. For
example, a $15 million loan with 50% risk-sharing has the same
potential risk exposure as a $7.5 million loan with full DUS
risk sharing. Accordingly, if the $15 million loan with 50%
risk-sharing were to default, we would view the overall loss as a
percentage of the at-risk balance, or $7.5 million, to ensure
comparability between all risk-sharing obligations. To date,
substantially all of the risk-sharing obligations that we have
settled have been from full risk-sharing loans.
|
|
|
(3)
|
Represents the
maximum loss we would incur under our risk-sharing obligations if
all of the loans we service, for which we retain some risk of loss,
were to default and all of the collateral underlying these loans
was determined to be without value at the time of settlement. The
maximum exposure is not representative of the actual loss we would
incur.
