Previous wording

Recent actions by the U.S. government administration with respect to trade, tariffs and government cost reduction initiatives have led to significant volatility in financial markets and uncertainty regarding the economic outlook, including inflation and interest rates. Elevated interest rates in recent years have constrained growth in the size of the mortgage origination market, which is currently projected to increase from $1.7 trillion in 2024 to $2.0 trillion in 2025 according to mortgage industry economists.

Current wording

Recent actions by the U.S. government administration with respect to trade, tariffs, government cost reduction initiatives and the shutdown of the federal government have led to significant volatility in financial markets and uncertainty regarding the economic outlook, including inflation and interest rates. Elevated interest rates in recent years have constrained growth in the size of the mortgage origination market, which is currently projected to increase from $1.7 trillion in 2024 to $2.0 trillion in 2025 according to mortgage industry economists.

Previous wording

The opportunity for refinancing has increased in recent periods, driven by interest rate volatility and a greater proportion of outstanding mortgages with note rates near current market rates. If such interest rate volatility continues, it may drive greater mortgage production activity and higher prepayment speeds than we have experienced in recent years. Additionally, reductions in the Federal Reserve’s federal funds rate have reduced the costs of floating rate borrowings and placement fees we receive in relation to custodial funds that we manage as compared to the same periods in the prior year. The current period of economic uncertainty and market volatility may also lead to a reduction in economic activity and slowing home price growth or depreciation, which could lead to increasing mortgage delinquencies or defaults and increase losses from our representations and warranties.

A prolonged federal government shutdown could increase loan delinquencies, delay the processing of government loan applications and make it more difficult for customers in flood-prone areas to procure government-backed insurance.

Previous wording

The MSRs, MSLs, and liabilities for representations and warranties we recognize represent our estimate of the fair value of future benefits and costs we will realize for years in the future. These estimates represented approximately 346% and 321% of our gains on sales of loans held for sale at fair value for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively, as compared to 307% and 282% for the same periods in 2024. These estimates change as circumstances change and changes in these estimates are recognized in income in subsequent periods.

The slight decrease in the provision relating to current loan sales was primarily attributable to a lower expectation of future repurchases due to improved collateral quality for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to the same periods in 2024.

Current wording

We recorded provisions for losses under representations and warranties relating to current loan sales as a component ofNet gains on loans held for sale at fair value totaling $4.7 million and $12.3 million for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, compared to $4.1 million and $12.2 million for the same periods in 2024.

Current wording

Following is a summary of loan repurchase and loss activity:

Previous wording

During the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2025, we repurchased loans totaling $25.4 million and $45.4 million, respectively. We charged losses of $845,000 and $1.3 million against the liability during the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2025. Our losses arising from representations and warranties have historically been minimized by our ability to either recover most of the losses from our correspondent sellers or from our ability to profitably refinance and resell repurchased loans.

Current wording

During the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2025, we repurchased loans totaling $31.7 million and $77.1 million, respectively. We charged losses of $1.1 million and $2.4 million against the liability during the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2025. Our losses arising from representations and warranties have historically been minimized by our ability to either recover most of the losses from our correspondent sellers or from our ability to profitably refinance and resell repurchased loans.

Previous wording

Elevated interest rate levels may affect certain of our correspondent sellers’ ability to honor their obligations to repurchase defective loans, may increase the level of borrower defaults and may increase the level of repurchases we are required to make, thereby making it more difficult to minimize losses on repurchased loans. We expect these developments may increase the losses we incur in relation to our recorded liability for representations and warranties compared to our historical experience. However, we believe our recorded liability is presently adequate to absorb such losses.

Current wording

We expect these developments may increase the losses we incur in relation to our recorded liability for representations and warranties compared to our historical experience. However, we believe our recorded liability is presently adequate to absorb such losses.

Current wording

Loan servicing fees from non-affiliates and other fees increased during the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to the same periods in 2024. The increases were primarily due to growth of our loan servicing portfolio. Other servicing fees increased due to growth in our MSR portfolio combined with increased incentives received for loss mitigation activities.

Previous wording

We have elected to carry our servicing assets and liabilities at fair value. Changes in fair value have two components: changes due to realization of the contractual servicing fees and changes due to changes in market inputs used to estimate the fair value of MSRs and MSLs. We endeavor to moderate the effects of changes in fair value by entering into derivatives transactions and holding principal-only stripped mortgage-backed securities.

Current wording

We have elected to carry our servicing assets and liabilities at fair value. Changes in fair value have two components: changes due to realization of cash flows of the MSRs and MSLs and changes due to changes in market inputs used to estimate the fair value of MSRs and MSLs. We endeavor to moderate the effects of changes in fair value by entering into derivatives transactions and holding principal-only stripped mortgage-backed securities.

Previous wording

Changes in fair value of MSRs attributable to changes in fair value inputs decreased during the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to the same periods in 2024 due to decreases in interest rates during the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to increasing interest rates during the same periods in 2024. Increasing interest rates reduce the rate of prepayments of the underlying loans, which increases the cash flows expected from the servicing rights, while decreasing interest rates have the opposite effect.

Current wording

Changes in fair value of MSRs attributable to changes in fair value inputs did not decline as significantly during the quarter ended September 30, 2025 compared to the same period in 2024 due to less significant decreases in interest rates during the quarter ended September 30, 2025 compared to the same period in 2024. Changes in fair value of MSRs attributable to changes in fair value inputs decreased more significantly during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to the same periods in 2024 due to more significant decreases in interest rates during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to the same period in 2024. Decreasing interest rates increase the rate of prepayments of the underlying loans, which decreases the cash flows expected from the servicing rights, while increasing interest rates have the opposite effect.

Previous wording

Hedging results reflect valuation losses attributable to the effects of interest rate volatility and increased hedging costs on the fair value of the hedging instruments during the quarter and interest rate decreases over the six months ended June 30, 2025 compared with interest rate increases in the same periods in 2024.

Current wording

Hedging results reflect valuation gains offsetting the valuation losses from decreasing interest rates in the quarters ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, and in the nine months ended September 30, 2025. In the nine months ended September 30, 2024, hedging results reflect valuation losses attributable to the effects of interest rate volatility and increased hedging costs on the fair value of the hedging instruments.

Previous wording

Changes in fair value attributable to realization of cash flows are influenced by changes in the level of servicing assets and liabilities and changes in estimates of the remaining cash flows to be realized. During the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2025, realization of cash flows increased compared to the same periods in 2024, primarily due to the growth in our investment in MSRs.

Current wording

Current wording

Management fees decreased $241,000 and $681,000 during the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to the same periods in 2024, due to decreases in PMT’s average shareholders’ equity which is the basis for the base management fees.

Previous wording

June 30, 2025 compared to the same periods in 2024. The increases were primarily due to an increase in head count and increased incentive compensation during the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2025, reflecting higher loan production volume and higher return on equity.

Current wording

Compensation expenses increased $34.0 million and $115.2 million during the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to the same periods in 2024.

The decreases in the effective income tax rates for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to the same periods in 2024 are primarily due to a non-recurring $81.6 million net income tax benefit primarily due to the repricing of deferred tax liabilities resulting from changes to California's apportionment rules with the enactment of California Senate Bill 132, signed into law June 27, 2025 and effective January 1, 2025. The law requires financial institutions to apportion their California income using a single sales factor instead of a factor equally weighted with property, payroll and sales.

Current wording
