• Reported $83 million net income or $0.90 per share, and pretax operating income of $171 million
  • Generated record Originations pretax income of $178 million on record funded volume of $11.9 billion
  • Servicing UPB remained stable, ending the quarter at $641 billion
  • Xome reported pretax income of $14 million and pretax operating income of $13 million, with Assurant Mortgage Solutions (AMS) contributing positive results
  • Announced retirement of $100 million of unsecured senior notes due 2021, which settled in October
  • Achieved Great Place to Work certification

Mr. Cooper Group Inc. (NASDAQ: COOP) (the "Company"), which principally operates under the Mr. Cooper® and Xome® brands, reported a third quarter net income of $83 million or $0.90 per diluted share, partially offset by a net fair value mark-to-market on the MSR portfolio of $(83) million. Excluding the mark-to-market and other items, the Company reported pretax operating income of $171 million. Items excluded from pretax operating income was $(83) million in mark-to-market, net of the add back of $32 million in fair value amortization included in the full mark-to-market, $4 million gain from remeasuring contingent consideration associated with the AMS acquisition, $5 million in charges related to corporate actions, and $12 million of intangible amortization.

Chairman and CEO Jay Bray commented, “The Originations segment produced another quarter of record fundings, with strong margins, demonstrating our capability to scale up in response to refinance market conditions. At the same time, we were very pleased with continued strong performance in the Servicing segment and delighted to receive the Great Place to Work certification.”

Chris Marshall, vice chairman and CFO added, “Net income, operating profits, and cash flow were all very strong in the quarter, allowing us to move forward with our deleveraging plan and begin retiring some of our senior notes. Deleveraging will strengthen the balance sheet, improve profitability, and afford us greater financial flexibility.”

Servicing

The Servicing segment is focused on providing a best-in-class home loan experience for our 3.8 million customers while simultaneously strengthening asset performance for investors. In the third quarter, Servicing recorded pretax income of $9 million offset by a net fair value mark-to-market on the MSR portfolio of $(83) million. During the quarter the total servicing portfolio remained stable, ending the quarter at $641 billion UPB. Servicing earned pretax operating income excluding the full mark of $92 million, equivalent to a servicing margin of 5.8 bps. At quarter end, the carrying value of the MSR was $3,346 million, equivalent to 109 bps of MSR UPB, and the original cost basis was 86 bps.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company utilizes non-GAAP financial measures as the measures provide additional information to assist investors in understanding and assessing the Company’s and our business segments’ ongoing performance and financial results, as well as assessing our prospects for future performance. The adjusted operating financial measures facilitate a meaningful analysis and allow more accurate comparisons of our ongoing business operations because they exclude items that may not be indicative of or are unrelated to the Company’s and our business segments’ core operating performance, and are better measures for assessing trends in our underlying businesses. These notable items are consistent with how management views our businesses. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures in making financial, operational and planning decisions and evaluating the Company’s and our business segment’s ongoing performance. Pretax operating income (loss) in the servicing segment eliminates the effects of mark-to-market adjustments which primarily reflects unrealized gains or losses based on the changes in fair value measurements of MSRs and their related financing liabilities for which a fair value accounting election was made. These adjustments, which can be highly volatile and material due to changes in credit markets, are not necessarily reflective of the gains and losses that will ultimately be realized by the Company. Pretax operating income (loss) in each segment also eliminates, as applicable, transition and integration costs, gains (losses) on sales of fixed assets, certain settlement costs that are not considered normal operational matters, intangible amortization, and other adjustments based on the facts and circumstances that would provide investors a supplemental means for evaluating the Company’s core operating performance.
