Guidance and outlook
Forward-looking statements, 10-Q filed Nov 3, 2026
- We expect both transactions to settle in the fourth quarter of 2026, and we may sell additional MSR portfolios in future periods.
- We also expect to purchase all of PLS's non-Agency correspondent loans and none of PLS's conventional conforming correspondent loans during the fourth quarter of 2026.
- We expect to continue investing in subordinate MBS generated from non-Agency securitizations, which is expected to increase our asset-backed financing of VIEs.
- We expect both transactions to settle in the fourth quarter of 2026.
- We believe that we qualify to be taxed as a REIT and as such will not be subject to federal income tax on that portion of our income that is distributed to shareholders as long as we meet applicable REIT asset, income and share ownership tests.
- If we fail to qualify as a REIT, and do not qualify for certain statutory relief provisions, our profits will be subject to income taxes and we may be precluded from qualifying as a REIT for the four tax years following the year we lose our REIT qualification.
- We expect that the effective rate for the provision for income taxes may be volatile in future periods.
- We evaluate our deferred tax assets quarterly to determine if valuation allowances are required based on the consideration of all available positive and negative evidence using a “more-likely-than-not” standard with respect to whether deferred tax assets will be realized.
- Our hedging activities are intended to manage our net exposure across all interest rate-sensitive strategies, including MSRs, MBS, and the effects of income taxes on our results.
- Realization of expected cash flows is influenced by changes in the level of our servicing assets, changes in estimates of remaining cash flows to be realized, and realized prepayment performance.
- Realization of expected cash flows decreased by $4.9 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2026, compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2025, primarily reflecting the decrease in the average balance of our MSR portfolio and declining prepayment speeds during the period as interest rates increased.
- For the nine months ended September 30, 2026, realization of expected cash flows increased by $15.8 million compared to the same period in 2025, as faster prepayment activity early in the period more than offset the decrease in the average balance of our portfolio.
