Fourth Quarter 2025 Highlights

Full-Year 2025 Highlights

“PFSI finished the year with a solid fourth quarter, generating a 10 percent annualized return on equity with strong production results offset by increased runoff on our MSR asset as prepayment speeds increased,” said Chairman and CEO David Spector. “For the full year 2025, our balanced business model generated very strong financial results. We achieved double-digit earnings growth across both operating segments, with servicing pretax income up 58 percent and production pretax income up 19 percent. These results were driven by significant operational momentum, including a 25 percent increase in production volumes and 10 percent growth in our servicing portfolio UPB. In total, we generated a 12 percent return on equity for the year and 11 percent growth in book value per share, underscoring our ability to consistently create stockholder value through disciplined execution.”

Mr. Spector concluded, “As we look to 2026, Pennymac is uniquely positioned to lead the industry. Our balanced business model and cutting edge technology provides a powerful foundation for our continued growth. We remain focused on the continued advancement of our strategies to drive sustained long-term value for our stockholders.”

The following table presents the contributions of PFSI’s segments to pretax income:

Production Segment

The Production segment includes the correspondent acquisition of newly originated government-insured and conventional conforming loans for PFSI’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.

PFSI’s loan production activity for the quarter totaled $42.2 billion in UPB, $38.5 billion of which was for its own account, and $3.7 billion of which was fee-based fulfillment activity for PMT. Correspondent locks for PFSI and direct lending IRLCs totaled $42.8 billion in UPB, up 10 percent from the prior quarter and 30 percent from the fourth quarter of 2024.

Production segment pretax income was $127.3 million, up from $122.9 million in the prior quarter and $78.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2024. Production segment net revenues totaled $371.0 million, up 3 percent from the prior quarter and 42 percent from the fourth quarter of 2024. The increase in revenue from the prior quarter was primarily due to higher volumes in the consumer direct lending channel and was largely offset by lower margins. The increase from the fourth quarter of 2024 was primarily due to higher volumes across all channels.

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

PFSI performs fulfillment services for certain conventional conforming and non-Agency eligible loans that it acquires from non-affiliates in its correspondent production business and subsequently sells to PMT. 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 $6.5 million in the fourth quarter, up 6 percent from the prior quarter and 3 percent from the fourth quarter of 2024. The increase was driven by higher acquisition volumes for PMT’s account.

Correspondent production volumes are initially acquired by PFSI. PMT retains the right to purchase up to 100 percent of non-government correspondent loan production. In the fourth quarter, PMT acquired all non-Agency eligible correspondent production and 17 percent of total conventional conforming correspondent production. In the first quarter of 2026, we expect PMT to acquire all non-Agency eligible correspondent production and 15 to 25 percent of total conventional conforming correspondent production.

Net interest income in the fourth quarter totaled $19.8 million, up from $13.7 million in the prior quarter. Interest income totaled $129.0 million, up from $111.3 million in the prior quarter, and interest expense totaled $109.2 million, up from $97.7 million in the prior quarter, both due to the increase in volumes.

Production segment expenses were $243.7 million, up 2 percent from the prior quarter and 33 percent from the fourth quarter of 2024. The increase from the prior quarter was primarily due to higher compensation expenses that resulted from the increase in consumer direct volumes. The increase from the fourth quarter of 2024 was primarily due to higher compensation and loan origination expenses from growth in the direct lending channels.

Servicing Segment

The Servicing segment includes income from owned MSRs and subservicing. The total servicing portfolio increased to $733.6 billion in UPB at December 31, 2025, up 2 percent from September 30, 2025 and up 10 percent from December 31, 2024. PFSI’s owned MSR portfolio totaled $471.0 billion in UPB, a decrease of 1 percent from September 30, 2025 as runoff along with the sale of $24.4 billion in UPB of MSRs more than offset the net growth from production. PFSI’s owned MSR portfolio UPB increased 8 percent from December 31, 2024, primarily due to production volumes, which more than offset runoff and MSR sales. PFSI subservices $262.6 billion in UPB, up 10 percent from the prior quarter. Of total subservicing UPB, $226.8 billion was for PMT, $24.3 billion was subserviced on an interim basis and $11.6 billion was for other non-affiliates.

The table below details PFSI’s servicing portfolio UPB:

Servicing segment pretax income was $37.3 million, down from $157.4 million in the prior quarter and $87.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2024. Servicing segment net revenues totaled $153.9 million, down from $259.5 million in the prior quarter and $197.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2024.

Revenue from net loan servicing fees totaled $149.8 million, down from $241.2 million in the prior quarter and $189.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2024. Net loan servicing fee revenues included $532.2 million in loan servicing fees, down slightly from the prior quarter due to the aforementioned sale of MSRs. Realization of cash flows was $383.4 million in the fourth quarter, up 32 percent from the prior quarter, consistent with the increase in prepayment speeds for the owned portfolio as lower mortgage rates drove higher prepayment activity. Net valuation-related gains totaled $1.0 million, comprised of MSR fair value gains of $40.4 million and hedging losses of $39.4 million.

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

Servicing segment revenue included $25.5 million in net gains on loans held for sale related to early buyout loans (EBOs), down from $34.4 million in the prior quarter and $27.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2024. The decrease from the prior quarter was primarily driven by the re-introduction of FHA’s trial payment plans, which extended modification timelines and delayed redeliveries into future quarters. These EBOs are previously delinquent loans that were brought back to performing status through PFSI’s successful servicing efforts.

Net interest expense totaled $19.2 million, compared to $15.1 million in the prior quarter and $19.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2024. Interest income was $134.6 million, down slightly from $137.1 million in the prior quarter as lower earnings rates on custodial balances more than offset the benefit of higher average balances. Interest expense was $153.8 million, up slightly from $152.2 million in the prior quarter.

Servicing segment expenses totaled $116.6 million, up from $102.1 million in the prior quarter primarily due to an increased provision for losses on active loans associated with seasonal increases in delinquencies and servicing advance balances.

Corporate and Other

Corporate and Other items include amounts attributable to corporate activities not directly attributable to the production and servicing segments as well as management fees earned from PMT. PFSI manages PMT for which it earns base management fees and may earn performance incentive fees.

Pretax loss for Corporate and Other was $30.2 million, down from $43.9 million in the prior quarter and $35.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2024.

Corporate and Other net revenues totaled $13.1 million, and consisted of $6.9 million in management fees, $6.0 million in other revenue, and $0.3 million of net interest income. No performance incentive fees were earned in the fourth quarter.

Expenses were $43.4 million, down from $55.5 million in the prior quarter and $47.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2024. The decrease from the prior quarter was primarily driven by increased capitalization of certain technology expenses and decreased performance-based incentive compensation.

Average PMT shareholders’ equity was $1.8 billion for the fourth quarter of 2025, essentially unchanged from the third quarter of 2025, and down slightly from the fourth quarter of 2024.

The following table presents a breakdown of management fees:

Consolidated Expenses

Total expenses were $403.6 million, up from $396.5 million in the prior quarter due to higher expenses in both the production and servicing segments as mentioned above.

Taxes

PFSI recorded a provision for tax expense of $27.6 million, resulting in an effective tax rate of 20.5 percent. The provision for tax expense included a $4.3 million tax benefit consisting of a repricing of deferred tax liabilities and an adjustment to the 2025 tax accrual. PFSI’s tax provision rate in future periods is expected to be 25.1percent, down slightly from 25.2 percent in recent quarters.
