Analysis of Income Statement - Changes from Third Quarter 2024 to Fourth Quarter 2024
- Net interest income increased from the third quarter due to accretive capital deployment, partially offset by higher interest expense on corporate debt and a higher cost of funds on secured financing transactions completed in the third quarter.
- Income from Sequoia Mortgage Banking activities, net decreased slightly from the third quarter, but gain on sale margins remained above our historic target range of 75 - 100 basis points, benefiting from continued hedge outperformance and accretive distribution activities.
- Despite higher volume in the fourth quarter, income from CoreVest Mortgage Banking activities, net decreased due to non-recurring fee revenue experienced in the third quarter.
- Fair value changes on our Redwood Investments portfolio in the fourth quarter primarily reflected the net impact from higher benchmark interest rates on our re-performing loan securities and incremental negative fair value changes on our bridge loans.
- HEI income, net decreased in the fourth quarter as home price appreciation slowed from elevated levels the past few quarters, resulting in lower fair market value gains relative to the third quarter. Notwithstanding the slower pace of growth in the fourth quarter, home price appreciation remains in line with modeled expectations.
- General and administrative ("G&A") expenses decreased primarily as a result of lower performance-based variable and equity compensation expenses relative to the third quarter based on quarterly earnings performance.
- Our provision for income taxes in the fourth quarter decreased as a result of lower income from mortgage banking activities relative to the third quarter.

EAD and EAD ROE are non-GAAP measures derived from GAAP Net income (loss) available (related) to common stockholders and GAAP Return on common equity ("GAAP ROE" or "ROE"), respectively. EAD is defined as: GAAP net income (loss) available (related) to common stockholders adjusted to (i) exclude investment fair value changes, net; (ii) exclude realized gains and losses; (iii) exclude acquisition related expenses; (iv) exclude certain organizational restructuring charges (as applicable); and (v) adjust for the hypothetical income taxes associated with these adjustments. EAD ROE is defined as EAD divided by average common equity. We believe EAD and EAD ROE provide supplemental information to assist management and investors in analyzing the Company’s results of operations and help facilitate comparisons to industry peers. Management also believes that EAD and EAD ROE are metrics that can supplement its analysis of the Company’s ability to pay dividends, by providing an indication of the current income generating capacity of the Company's business operations as of the quarter being presented. EAD and EAD ROE should not be utilized in isolation, nor should they be considered as an alternative to GAAP net income (loss) available (related) to common stockholders, GAAP ROE or other measurements of results of operations computed in accordance with GAAP or for federal income tax purposes. |

Investment fair value changes, net includes all amounts within that same line item on our consolidated statements of income, which primarily represents both realized and unrealized gains and losses on our investments (excluding HEI) and associated hedges. As noted above, realized and unrealized gains and losses on our HEI investments are reflected in a new line item on our consolidated income statements titled "HEI income, net". |

Realized (gains)/losses, net includes all amounts within that line item on our consolidated statements of income. |

Acquisition related expenses include transaction costs paid to third parties, as applicable, and the ongoing amortization of intangible assets related to the Riverbend and CoreVest acquisitions. |

Tax effect of adjustments represents the hypothetical income taxes associated with all adjustments used to calculate EAD. |
|
|

EAD ROE is calculated by dividing EAD by average common equity for each respective period. |

EAD Net contribution and EAD Net contribution ROC are non-GAAP measures derived from GAAP Net contribution and GAAP Return on capital ("GAAP ROC" or "ROC"), respectively. GAAP ROC is defined as: GAAP Net contribution by segment adjusted to (i) exclude investment fair value changes, net (as applicable); (ii) exclude realized gains and losses (as applicable); (iii) exclude acquisition related expenses; (iv) exclude certain organizational restructuring charges (as applicable); and (v) adjust for the hypothetical income taxes associated with these adjustments. Each of these adjustments to arrive at EAD Net contribution are the same adjustments used to calculate EAD, as applicable to each segment for which it is being calculated. EAD Net contribution ROC presents a measure of profitability relative to the amount of capital utilized in the operations of each segment during a period and is calculated by dividing annualized non-GAAP EAD Net contribution by the average capital utilized by the segment during the period. Management utilizes these measures internally in analyzing each of the Company’s business segments’ contribution to EAD. See prior page for a further description of how management utilizes EAD and why EAD may assist investors, as well as limitations related to using EAD-based metrics. We caution that EAD Net contribution and EAD Net contribution ROC should not be utilized in isolation, nor should they be considered as alternatives to GAAP Net Contribution, GAAP ROC or other measurements of results of operations computed in accordance with GAAP. |
