Second Quarter 2024 Results

WESTLAKE VILLAGE, Calif. – July 23, 2024 – PennyMac Mortgage Investment Trust (NYSE: PMT) today reported net income attributable to common shareholders of $15.0 million, or $0.17 per common share on a diluted basis for the second quarter of 2024, on net investment income of $71.2 million. PMT previously announced a cash dividend for the second quarter of 2024 of $0.40 per common share of beneficial interest, which was declared on June 13, 2024, and will be paid on July 26, 2024, to common shareholders of record as of July 12, 2024.

Second Quarter 2024 Highlights

Financial results:

•

Net income attributable to common shareholders of $15.0 million; annualized return on average common equity of 4%¹

•

Strong levels of income excluding market-driven fair value changes and positive contributions from all three investment strategies partially offset by fair value declines in the interest rate sensitive strategies

•

Book value per common share decreased slightly to $15.89 at June 30, 2024, from $16.11 at March 31, 2024

Other investment highlights:

•

Investment activity driven by correspondent production volumes

•

Conventional correspondent loan production volumes for PMT’s account totaled $2.2 billion in unpaid principal balance (UPB), up 26 percent from the prior quarter driven by a larger origination market and down 26 percent from the second quarter of 2023 as a result of the sale of a larger percentage of conventional loans to PennyMac Financial Services, Inc. (NYSE: PFSI)

¹	Return on average common equity is calculated based on net income attributable to common shareholders as a percentage of monthly average common equity during the quarter

•

Resulted in the creation of $41 million in new mortgage servicing rights (MSRs)

•

Issued $247 million of new, 3-year CRT term notes, which refinanced $213 million of notes due to mature in 2025

•

Issued $217 million of 5-year exchangeable senior notes due June 2029

•

Issued $355 million of new, 3.5-year MSR term notes at attractive rates

Notable activity after quarter end

•

Redeemed $305 million of MSR term notes due in 2027

“PMT’s second quarter financial results reflect higher levels of income excluding market-driven value changes and income contributions from all three strategies,” said Chairman and CEO David Spector. “This income was partially offset by net fair value declines, predominantly in the interest rate sensitive strategies due to continued interest rate volatility during the quarter. I am pleased to note that we successfully issued $217 million of exchangeable senior notes and $355 million of term notes secured by Fannie Mae MSRs at attractive levels as we saw improvement in the credit markets during the second quarter.”

Mr. Spector continued, “Given the new capital, we expect to deploy more capital to conventional correspondent production in the third quarter, driving organic growth of our MSR investments. Additionally, we will continue to monitor the markets for opportunities to deploy capital into bulk MSR packages and other investments at appropriate returns. With a diversified portfolio of mortgage-related investments with strong underlying fundamentals - and a leading correspondent production business - I remain confident in PMT’s ability to continue delivering attractive risk-adjusted returns to its shareholders.”

Credit Sensitive Strategies Segment

The Credit Sensitive Strategies segment primarily includes results from PMT’s organically-created GSE CRT investments, opportunistic investments in other GSE CRT, investments in non-agency subordinate bonds from private-label securitizations of PMT’s production and legacy investments. Pretax income for the segment was $15.7 million on net investment income of $15.8 million, compared to pretax income of $60.8 million on net investment income of $60.9 million in the prior quarter.

Net gains on investments in the segment were $17.4 million, compared to $59.6 million in the prior quarter. These net gains include $16.6 million of gains on PMT’s organically-created GSE CRT investments, $2.3 million in gains on other acquired subordinate CRT mortgage-backed securities (MBS) and $1.5 million of losses on investments from non-agency subordinate bonds from PMT’s production.

Net gains on PMT’s organically-created CRT investments for the quarter were $16.6 million, compared to $51.7 million in the prior quarter. These net gains include $1.7 million in valuation-related gains, down from $36.3 million in the prior quarter. Net gains on PMT’s organically-created CRT investments also included $15.1 million in realized gains and carry, compared to $15.5 million in the prior quarter. Realized losses during the quarter were $0.1 million.

Net interest expense for the segment was $1.3 million, compared to net interest income of $1.2 million in the prior quarter. Interest income totaled $22.9 million, down from $24.2 million in the prior quarter. Interest expense totaled $24.3 million, up from $23.0 million in the prior quarter.

Interest Rate Sensitive Strategies Segment

The Interest Rate Sensitive Strategies segment includes results from investments in MSRs, Agency MBS, non-Agency senior MBS and interest rate hedges. Pretax income for the segment was $16.9 million on net investment income of $39.1 million, compared to a pretax loss of $27.2 million on net investment losses of $4.8 million in the prior quarter. The segment includes investments that typically have offsetting fair value exposures to changes in interest rates. For example, in a period with increasing interest rates, MSRs are expected to increase in fair value, whereas Agency pass-through and non-Agency senior MBS are expected to decrease in fair value.

The results in the Interest Rate Sensitive Strategies segment consist of net gains and losses on investments, net interest income and net loan servicing fees, as well as associated expenses.

Net losses on investments for the segment were $37.2 million, which primarily consisted of losses on MBS due to higher interest rates.

Income from net loan servicing fees was $96.5 million, compared to $45.7 million in the prior quarter. Net loan servicing fees included contractually specified servicing fees of $162.1 million and $2.8 million in other fees, reduced by $96.6 million in realization of MSR cash flows, which was down slightly from the prior quarter. Net loan servicing fees also included $46.0 million in fair value gains on MSRs due to slightly higher interest rates, $18.4 million in hedging declines and $0.5 million of MSR recapture income. PMT’s hedging activities are intended to manage its net exposure across all interest rate sensitive strategies, which include MSRs, MBS and related tax impacts.

Net loan servicing fees	$	96,494		$	45,705		$	108,833

Net interest expense for the segment was $20.3 million versus $30.6 million in the prior quarter. Interest income totaled $111.3 million, up from $104.2 million in the prior quarter due to higher earnings on custodial balances, and interest expense totaled $131.6 million, down slightly from $134.8 million the prior quarter.

Segment expenses were $22.2 million, essentially unchanged from the prior quarter.

Correspondent Production Segment

PMT acquires newly originated loans from correspondent sellers and typically sells or securitizes the loans, resulting in current-period income and additions to its investments in MSRs related to a portion of its production. PMT’s Correspondent Production segment generated pretax income of $9.6 million in the second quarter, down from $11.7 million in the prior quarter.

Through its correspondent production activities, PMT acquired a total of $22.5 billion in UPB of loans, up 24 percent from the prior quarter and 6 percent from the second quarter of 2023. Of total correspondent acquisitions, government-insured or guaranteed acquisitions totaled $10.3 billion, up 26 percent from the prior quarter, and conventional conforming acquisitions totaled $12.2 billion, up 23

percent from the prior quarter. $2.2 billion of conventional volume was for PMT’s account and $10.0 billion of conventional volume was for PFSI’s account. Interest rate lock commitments on conventional and jumbo loans for PMT’s account totaled $2.7 billion, up 8 percent from the prior quarter.

Segment revenues were $14.6 million and included net gains on loans acquired for sale of $12.2 million, other income of $2.5 million, which primarily consists of volume-based origination fees, and net interest expense of $0.1 million. Net gains on loans acquired for sale decreased $2.4 million from the prior quarter, primarily due to lower margins. Interest income was $14.9 million, up from $11.9 million in the prior quarter, and interest expense was $15.0 million, up from $12.3 million in the prior quarter, both due to higher volumes.

Segment expenses were $5.0 million, up from $4.5 million the prior quarter primarily due to increased fulfillment fees as a result of higher volumes for PMT’s account. The weighted average fulfillment fee rate in the second quarter was 20 basis points, down from 23 basis points in the prior quarter.

Corporate Segment

The Corporate segment includes interest income from cash and short-term investments, management fees, and corporate expenses.

Segment revenues were $1.7 million, down slightly from $1.8 million in the prior quarter. Management fees were $7.1 million, and other segment expenses were $8.1 million.

Taxes

PMT recorded a provision for tax expense of $3.2 million, driven primarily by earnings on assets held in PMT’s taxable subsidiary.
