1. |
Economic return on book value is based on the period change in GAAP book value per common share plus dividends declared per common share in the period. |
2. |
Earnings available for distribution is a non-GAAP measure. See Non-GAAP Disclosures section that follows for additional information on this measure. |
3. |
Recourse leverage ratio is defined as recourse debt at Redwood divided by tangible stockholders' equity. Recourse debt excludes $12.8 billion of consolidated securitization debt (ABS issued and servicer advance financing), other liabilities and other debt that is non-recourse to Redwood, and tangible stockholders' equity excludes $46.8 million of goodwill and intangible assets. |
4. |
Lock volume represents loans identified for purchase from loan sellers. Lock volume does not account for potential fallout from pipeline that typically occurs through the lending process. |
5. |
Re-performing loan ("RPL") and jumbo securities delinquency rate calculations are weighted by notional balances of loans collateralizing each of our securities investments. Bridge loan and CAFL securities delinquency rates are calculated as BPL term loans in our consolidated CAFL securitizations, loans held at JVs, unsecuritized bridge loans held for investment, and bridge and term loans held for sale with a delinquent payment greater than 90 days, divided by the total notional balance of loans in consolidated CAFL securitizations, loans held at JVs, unsecuritized bridge loans held for investment, and bridge and term loans held for sale. Calculation excludes third-party originated loans. Bridge loan delinquency rate calculations were updated in Q2'24 to include full UPB values for loans in joint ventures (prior period presented was conformed to updated calculation methodology). Calculation excludes third-party originated bridge loans. |
6. |
Secured recourse leverage ratio for our Investment Portfolio is defined as secured recourse debt financing our investment portfolio assets divided by capital allocated to our investment portfolio. |
7. |
Represents Q3'24 activity through July 31, 2024 unless otherwise noted. |
8. |
Capital unlocked from re-securitization is subsequent to the repayment of existing associated debt. |

Analysis of Income Statement - Changes from First Quarter 2024 to Second Quarter 2024
- Net interest income increased from the first quarter as a result of accretive capital deployment which was partially offset by higher corporate interest expense from a new corporate secured financing facility and unsecured debt issuance.
- Income from Residential Consumer Mortgage Banking increased from the first quarter, driven by 49% quarter over quarter increase in volumes. Gain on sale margins declined to near the low end of our historic range.
- Income from Residential Investor Mortgage Banking increased from the first quarter, driven by improved distribution economics from accretive whole loan sales during the quarter, and a 41% quarter over quarter increase in volumes.
- Fair value changes on our Investment Portfolio in the second quarter primarily reflected improved credit performance and spread tightening on our securities portfolio, offset by negative fair value changes on our bridge loans.
- HEI income, net increased in the second quarter, as actual and projected trends in home price appreciation improved, benefiting valuations in our HEI portfolio.
- General and administrative (G&A) expenses decreased from the first quarter primarily as a result of 20% lower fixed employee compensation relative to the first quarter. G&A for the quarter reflected a $1 million annual corporate expense.
- Our provision for income taxes in the second quarter increased as a result of improved results from both our residential consumer and investor mortgage banking operations.

In the fourth quarter of 2023, we changed our calculation of EAD and conformed all prior period amounts presented in the table above and throughout this earnings release. This change consisted of removing the previously presented line item titled "Change in economic basis of investments". Additionally, during the fourth quarter of 2023, we changed our consolidated income statements to include a line item titled "HEI income, net". This line item includes all amounts related to our HEI investments that were previously presented within the "Investment fair value changes, net" line item. As such, our adjustment for "Investment fair value changes, net" in our current calculation of EAD does not include fair value changes related to our HEI investments. |
3. |
EAD and EAD ROE are non-GAAP measures derived from GAAP Net income (loss) available (related) to common stockholders and GAAP 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 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. |
4. |
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". |
5. |
Realized (gains)/losses, net includes all amounts within that line item on our consolidated statements of income. |
6. |
Acquisition related expenses include transaction costs paid to third parties, as applicable, and the ongoing amortization of intangible assets related to the Riverbend, CoreVest and 5Arches acquisitions. |
7. |
Organizational restructuring charges for the first quarter of 2024 represent costs associated with employee severance and related transition expenses. |
8. |
Tax effect of adjustments represents the hypothetical income taxes associated with all adjustments used to calculate EAD. |
9. |
EAD ROE is calculated by dividing EAD by average common equity for each respective period. |
