Notes to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Statements

 

Note 1 - Basis of Presentation

 

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet has been prepared to give effect to the Flagstar Acquisition as if the transaction had occurred as of September 30, 2024. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations has been prepared to give effect to the Flagstar Acquisition as if the transaction had occurred as of January 1, 2023.

 

 

 

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements are presented for illustrative purposes only and are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations or financial position had the Flagstar Acquisition been consummated during the period presented, nor is it necessarily indicative of the results of operations in future periods or the future financial position of the combined entities. Certain historical financial information of Flagstar have been reclassified in the pro forma adjustment column to conform to the current presentation.

 

Note 2 - Flagstar Acquisition

 

On July 24, 2024, Mr. Cooper entered into an asset purchase agreement (the “Asset Purchase Agreement”) and an Agreement for the Bulk Purchase and Sale of Mortgage Servicing Rights (the “MSR Purchase Agreement”) with Flagstar Bank, N.A. (collectively, “the Flagstar Acquisition”). Per the Asset Purchase Agreement, Mr. Cooper will purchase and assume from Flagstar, certain assets and related liabilities related to Flagstar’s mortgage servicing and third-party origination operations. Per the MSR Purchase Agreement, Flagstar has agreed to sell, and Mr. Cooper has agreed to purchase, certain MSRs held by Flagstar. The Flagstar Acquisition closed in the fourth quarter of 2024 for a total consideration of approximately $1.3 billion in cash, funded through available cash and drawdowns of existing MSR lines. The acquired assets primarily consist of approximately $1.2 billion of MSRs and related advances, and $101 million of customer relationship intangibles associated with subservicing contracts. Mr. Cooper accounted for the two transactions as one asset acquisition in accordance with Accounting Standard Codification Topic 805, Business Combinations, whereby the total purchase price was allocated to acquired net assets based on their relative fair values. Additionally, costs directly related to the Flagstar Acquisition were capitalized as a component of the purchase price.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The purchase price and the cost allocated to the assets acquired by Mr. Cooper are as follows (amounts in millions):

 

Pro Forma Total Purchase Price:   
Cash payment for asset acquisition  $1,256 
Asset acquisition holdback payable   54 
Direct acquisition-related cost   2 
Pro forma total purchase price  $1,312 
      
Cost allocated to assets acquired:     
Mortgage servicing rights  $1,169 
Advances   41 
Other assets   1 
Assets acquired   1,211 
      
Payables and accrued liabilities   4 
Liabilities assumed   4 
      
Total net tangible assets acquired  $1,207 
Intangible assets acquired:     
Customer relationships  $101 
Acquired workforce   4 
Total intangible assets acquired  $105 

 

Note 3 - Pro Forma Adjustments

 

The following pro forma adjustments have been reflected in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements.

 

(a) Represents the payment from available cash and cash equivalents of $106 million to fund the purchase price for the Flagstar Acquisition. In addition, total cash of $2 million was used to pay transaction costs associated with the Flagstar Acquisition, including legal and advisory fees.

 

(b) Represents adjustments due to changes in the underlying account balances as well as allocating the costs based on relative estimated fair value. The majority of adjustments are related to mortgage servicing rights. Fair value for these were assessed based on the following:

 

1.Mortgage servicing rights - Fair value was estimated using our internal estimation process that combines the use of a discounted cash flow model and analysis of current market data. The discounted cash flow model is driven by loan level data and key assumptions, including mortgage prepayment speeds, option adjusted spread, and costs to service. In addition, the pro forma adjustment accounts for changes in the underlying loan balance activity in the normal course of business between pro forma balance sheet date and the acquisition date.

 

 

 

2.Advance and other receivables - Acquired advances and other receivables are substantially all related to escrow and corporate, which are contractual receivables related to advances made by the servicer in connection with servicing the mortgage loan. Due to the contractual nature of these receivables, the fair value of these advances and other receivables approximate carrying value. In addition, the pro forma adjustment accounted for the advances and other receivables that were not acquired by Mr. Cooper as well as changes in account balances in the normal course of business between pro forma balance sheet date and the acquisition date.

 

(c) Reflects recognition of the estimated fair value of identifiable intangible assets attributable to the Flagstar Acquisition. See Note 2, Flagstar Acquisition, for further discussion. The identifiable intangible assets consist of and result in the following pro forma adjustment (amounts in millions):

 

($ in millions)  Fair Value  Amortization Expense in the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2024  Amortization Expense in the Year Ended December 31, 2023  Average Estimated Useful Life (Years)
Customer relationships (1)  $101   $14   $25    5 
Acquired workforce(2)   4    1    1    3 
   $105   $15   $26      

 

(1)The estimated fair value for customer relationships was measured using the discounted cash flow method.
(2)The estimated fair value for acquired workforce was measured using the replacement cost method.

 

(d) Flagstar originated and serviced government guaranteed loans which are pooled and sold as Ginnie Mae mortgage-back securities (“MBS”). Pursuant to Ginnie Mae servicing guidelines, Flagstar has the unilateral right to repurchase loans securitized in Ginnie Mae pools that are due, but unpaid, for three consecutive months for loans it has sold to Ginnie Mae. As a result, once the delinquency criteria have been met, and regardless of whether the repurchase option has been exercised, Flagstar accounts for the loans as if they had been repurchased. The pro forma adjustment represents adjustment of $465 million to properly derecognize loans subject to repurchase from Ginnie Mae previously recorded by Flagstar since Mr. Cooper is not the issuer of the related MBS, and therefore not subject to the Ginnie Mae repurchase provision.

 

(e) Represents the income tax effects of the pro forma adjustments in connection with the Flagstar Acquisition.

 

(f) Represents $1,150 million drawdowns on existing MSR lines to fund the Flagstar Acquisition.

 

(g) Represents removal of intercompany service fees charged to other non-mortgage units of Flagstar Bank, N.A.. Mr. Cooper did not acquire those non-mortgage units, and does not expect to continue to earn such service fees from them following the completion of the Flagstar Acquisition.

 

(h) Pro forma adjustment does not include interest income earned on acquired custodial deposits as the amount is not reasonably quantifiable.

 

 

 

(i) Represents interest expense for the drawdowns on existing MSR lines to fund the Flagstar Acquisition. The interest rate is based on SOFR rate as of the date the Flagstar Acquisition is completed, plus the margins specified in the borrowing agreements. A 1/8 of a percentage point increase or decrease in the interest rate would result in a change in interest expense of approximately $1.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and approximately $1.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2023.
