-
Fourth quarter Mortgage Servicing Rights grew to
, up$428 million 26% from the prior quarter as we retained servicing on agency loans originated in the retail channel. - Revenue in the fourth quarter was negative predominantly due to fair value marks resulting from faster than modeled prepayment speeds in Reverse assets. These marks reflect lifetime impacts across the portfolio. The decrease in total revenue and pre-tax income (loss) excluding impairment of goodwill and intangible assets compared to the prior quarter reflects the impact of fair value adjustments related predominantly to Reverse assets.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Company’s management evaluates performance of the Company through the use certain non-GAAP financial measures, including Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Share.
We define Adjusted Net Income as net income (loss) adjusted for change in fair value of loans and securities held for investment due to assumption changes, amortization and other impairments, equity based compensation, change in fair value of deferred purchase price obligations (including earnouts and TRA obligations), warrant liability, and minority investments and certain non-recurring costs.
We define Adjusted EBITDA as Adjusted Net Income (defined above) adjusted for taxes, interest on non-funding debt and depreciation.
We define Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share as Adjusted Net Income (defined above) divided by our weighted average diluted share count, which includes our issued and outstanding Class A Common Stock shares plus Finance of America Equity Capital LLC’s
The presentation of non-GAAP measures is used to enhance investors’ understanding of certain aspects of our financial performance. This discussion is not meant to be considered in isolation, superior to, or as a substitute for the directly comparable financial measures prepared in accordance with
These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as an alternate to (i) net income (loss) or any other performance measures determined in accordance with GAAP or (ii) operating cash flows determine in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EBITDA have important limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Some of the limitations of these metrics are: (i) cash expenditures for future contractual commitments; (ii) cash requirements for working capital needs; (iii) cash requirements for certain tax payments; and (iv) all non-cash income/expense items.
Because of these limitations, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Share should not be considered as measures of discretionary cash available to us to invest in the growth of our business or distribute to stockholders. We compensate for these limitations by relying primarily on our GAAP results and using our non-GAAP financial measures only as a supplement. Users of our interim unaudited consolidated financial statements are cautioned not to place undue reliance on our non-GAAP financial measures.
