“PennyMac Financial produced strong results in 2022, a year characterized by a rapid and significant increase in mortgage rates,” said Chairman and CEO David Spector. “The 14 percent return on equity achieved in 2022 can be attributed to the resilience and scale of our balanced business model and the decisive actions taken throughout the year to right-size our business for the much smaller origination market. While production activity fell in 2022 our servicing earnings were strong. In fact, the majority of PennyMac Financial’s income in 2022 was generated by our large and growing servicing portfolio, which totaled more than $550 billion in unpaid principal balance at year end, up 8 percent from the prior year. Strong financial performance not only enabled us to continue returning capital to stockholders and investing in innovative mortgage banking technology, but also resulted in solid growth in PFSI’s book value per share, which ended the year up 16 percent from year end 2021.”

Mr. Spector continued, “More than 15 years ago, we founded Pennymac with a vision to help revitalize the mortgage market and become a trusted partner in home ownership. Since then, we have grown responsibly and profitably into one of the largest residential mortgage producers and servicers in the country with an industry-leading correspondent production business and a growing presence in the direct lending channels. Though 2023 is expected to be another challenging year for the mortgage industry, I remain confident in PennyMac Financial’s ability to continue executing given its balanced business model and long history of generating stockholder value through different mortgage market cycles and environments.”

 Production Segment

The Production segment includes the correspondent acquisition of newly originated government-insured and certain conventional conforming loans for PennyMac Financial’s own account, fulfillment services on behalf of PMT and direct lending through the consumer direct and broker direct channels, including the underwriting and acquisition of loans from correspondent sellers on a non-delegated basis.

PennyMac Financial’s loan production activity for the quarter totaled $23.0 billion in UPB, $16.2 billion of which was for its own account, and $6.8 billion of which was fee-based fulfillment activity for PMT. Correspondent locks for PFSI and direct lending IRLCs totaled $19.1 billion in UPB, up 6 percent from the prior quarter and down 43 percent from the fourth quarter of 2021.

Production segment pretax loss was $9.0 million, down from pretax income of $38.6 million in the prior quarter and $106.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2021. Production segment revenue totaled $131.6 million, down 34 percent from the prior quarter and 69 percent from the fourth quarter of 2021. The quarter-over-quarter decrease was driven by a $56.0 million decrease in net gains on loans held for sale primarily as a result of lower volume in the consumer direct lending channel and lower overall margins.

The components of net gains on loans held for sale are detailed in the following table:

		Quarter ended

(1) Including cash hedging results

PennyMac Financial performs fulfillment services for certain conventional conforming and jumbo loans acquired by PMT from non-affiliates in its correspondent production business. These services include, but are not limited to, marketing, relationship management, correspondent seller approval and monitoring, loan file review, underwriting, pricing, hedging and activities related to the subsequent sale and securitization of loans in the secondary mortgage markets for PMT.

Fees earned from the fulfillment of correspondent loans on behalf of PMT totaled $12.2 million in the fourth quarter, down 34 percent from the prior quarter and 40 percent from the fourth quarter of 2021. The quarter-over-quarter decrease in fulfillment fee revenue was driven by lower conventional acquisition volumes for PMT’s account as PFSI began to acquire certain of the conventional loans sourced by PMT.

Net interest income totaled $6.0 million, up slightly from $5.9 million in the prior quarter. Interest income in the fourth quarter totaled $42.9 million, up from $30.8 million in the prior quarter, and interest expense totaled $36.8 million, up from $25.0 million in the prior quarter, both due to increasing interest rates.

Production segment expenses were $140.6 million, down 13 percent from the prior quarter and 56 percent from the fourth quarter of 2021. The decline from the prior quarter was driven by lower volumes in the direct lending channels and the expense management initiatives announced in prior quarters.

Servicing Segment

The Servicing segment includes income from owned MSRs, subservicing and special servicing activities. Servicing segment pretax income was $75.6 million, down from $145.3 million in the prior quarter and $126.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2021. Servicing segment net revenues totaled $199.0 million, down from $266.5 million in the prior quarter and $255.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2021. The quarter-over-quarter decrease was primarily driven by a $60.9 million decrease in net loan servicing fees and a $10.8 million decrease in net gains on loans held for sale related to early buyout (EBO) activity.

Revenue from net loan servicing fees totaled $182.8 million, down from $243.7 million in the prior quarter primarily driven by lower net valuation related gains and partially offset by increased loan servicing fees due to a larger servicing portfolio. Revenue from loan servicing fees included $321.9 million in servicing fees, reduced by $148.8 million from the realization of MSR cash flows. Net valuation-related gains totaled $9.7 million, and included MSR fair value gains of $82.6 million, and hedging losses of $72.9 million. The hedging losses were largely driven by hedge costs and higher interest rates during the quarter.

The following table presents a breakdown of net loan servicing fees: 

		Quarter ended
		December 31, 2022				September 30, 2022				December 31, 2021

Net loan servicing fees		$	182,831			$	243,742			$	94,733

Servicing segment revenue included $17.2 million in net gains on loans held for sale related to reperforming government-insured and guaranteed loans purchased out of Ginnie Mae securitizations, or EBOs. These gains were down from $28.0 million in the prior quarter and $185.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2021. These EBOs are previously delinquent loans that were brought back to performing status through PennyMac Financial’s successful servicing efforts.

Net interest expense totaled $2.7 million, versus $5.8 million in the prior quarter and $25.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2021. Interest income was $64.5 million, up from $52.2 million in the prior quarter as increased placement fees on custodial balances more than offset the decline in interest income on EBO loans held for sale. Interest expense was $67.2 million, up from $58.0 million in the prior quarter due to higher interest rates.

Servicing segment expenses totaled $123.4 million, up 2 percent from the prior quarter. Servicing segment expenses included $13.2 million in provisions for losses on active loans in the fourth quarter due to higher delinquency rates. The prior quarter included a reversal of the provision of $3.2 million.

The total servicing portfolio grew to $551.7 billion in UPB at December 31, 2022, an increase of 2 percent from September 30, 2022 and 8 percent from December 31, 2021. PennyMac Financial subservices and conducts special servicing for $233.6 billion in UPB, an increase of 1 percent from September 30, 2022 and 5 percent from December 31, 2021. PennyMac Financial’s owned MSR portfolio grew to $318.1 billion in UPB, an increase of 3 percent from September 30, 2022 and 11 percent from December 31, 2021.

Investment Management Segment

PennyMac Financial manages PMT for which it earns base management fees and may earn incentive compensation. Net AUM were $2.0 billion as of December 31, 2022, down 3 percent from September 30, 2022 and 17 percent from December 31, 2021.

Pretax income for the Investment Management segment was $1.2 million, down from $1.6 million in the prior quarter and $1.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2021. Base management fees from PMT were $7.3 million, down from $7.7 million in the prior quarter and $8.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2021 due to the decline in AUM. No performance incentive fees were earned in the fourth quarter.

Investment Management segment expenses totaled $8.7 million, unchanged from the prior quarter and down 2 percent from the fourth quarter of 2021.

Consolidated Expenses

Total expenses were $272.7 million, down 6 percent from the prior quarter and 41 percent from the fourth quarter of 2021. The quarter-over-quarter decrease was primarily driven by lower production volumes in the direct lending channels, expense management activities and a reduction of performance-based compensation accruals.

Taxes

PFSI recorded a provision for tax expense of $30.1 million, resulting in an effective tax rate of 44.4 percent versus 27.1 percent in the prior quarter. The increase in the effective tax rate in the fourth quarter was primarily driven by an increase in the provision tax rate, which increased from 26.5 percent to 26.85 percent for 2022. The increase in tax rate resulted in the repricing of PFSI’s net deferred tax liability, which was the primary driver of a non-recurring tax expense of approximately $11.9 million in the quarter.

Management’s slide presentation will be available in the Investor Relations section of the Company’s website at pfsi.pennymac.com after the market closes on Thursday, February 2, 2023.
