SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q ~~(“Report”~~(this “Report”) contains certain forward-looking statements that are subject to various risks and uncertainties. Forward-looking statements are generally identifiable by use of forward-looking terminology such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “potential,” “intend,” “expect,” “seek,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “approximately,” “believe,” “could,” “project,” “predict,” “continue,” “plan” or other similar words or expressions.

Forward-looking statements are based on certain assumptions, discuss future expectations, describe future plans and strategies, contain financial and operating projections or state other forward-looking information. Examples of forward-looking statements include the following:

•

projections of our revenues, income, earnings per share, capital structure or other financial items;

•

descriptions of our plans or objectives for future operations, products or services;

•

forecasts of our future economic performance, interest rates, profit margins and our share of future markets; and

•

descriptions of assumptions underlying or relating to any of the foregoing expectations regarding the timing of generating any revenues.

Our ability to predict results or the actual effect of future events, actions, plans or strategies is inherently uncertain. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, our actual results and performance could differ materially from those set forth in the forward-looking statements. There are a number of factors, many of which are beyond our control that could cause actual results to differ significantly from management’s expectations. Some of these factors are discussed below.

You should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statement and should consider the following uncertainties and risks, as well as the risks and uncertainties discussed elsewhere in this Report and the section entitled “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2019,~~2021, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on February ~~21, 2020.~~25, 2022.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

Note 1—Organization

PennyMac Mortgage Investment Trust (“PMT” or the “Company”) is a specialty finance company, which, through its subsidiaries (all of which are wholly-owned), invests primarily in residential mortgage-related assets. The Company operates in 4 segments: credit sensitive strategies, interest rate sensitive strategies, correspondent production, and corporate:

•

The credit sensitive strategies segment represents the Company’s investments in credit risk transfer (“CRT”) arrangements, including CRT agreements (“CRT Agreements”) and CRT securities (together, “CRT arrangements”), subordinate mortgage-backed securities (“MBS”), distressed loans and real ~~estate, and non-Agency subordinated bonds.~~estate.

•

The interest rate sensitive strategies segment represents the Company’s investments in mortgage servicing rights (“MSRs”), excess servicing spread (“ESS”) purchased from PennyMac Financial Services, Inc. (“PFSI”), a publicly-traded mortgage banking and investment management company, Agency and senior non-Agency ~~mortgage-backed securities (“MBS”)~~MBS and the related interest rate hedging activities.

•

The correspondent production segment represents the Company’s operations aimed at serving as an intermediary between lenders and the capital markets by purchasing, pooling and reselling newly originated prime credit quality loans either directly or in the form of MBS, using the services of PNMAC Capital Management, LLC (“PCM” or the “Manager”) and PennyMac Loan Services, LLC (“PLS”), both indirect controlled subsidiaries of PFSI.

The Company primarily sells the loans it acquires through its correspondent production activities to government-sponsored entities such as the Federal National Mortgage Association (“Fannie Mae”) and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“Freddie Mac”) or to PLS for sale into securitizations guaranteed by the Government National Mortgage Association (“Ginnie Mae”). Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac and Ginnie Mae are each referred to as an “Agency” and, collectively, as the “Agencies.”

•

The corporate segment includes management fees, corporate expense amounts and certain interest income.

The Company conducts substantially all of its operations and makes substantially all of its investments through its subsidiary, PennyMac Operating Partnership, L.P. (the “Operating Partnership”), and the Operating Partnership’s subsidiaries. A wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company is the sole general partner, and the Company is the sole limited partner, of the Operating Partnership.

The Company believes that it qualifies, and has elected to be taxed, as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. To maintain its tax status as a REIT, the Company is required to distribute at least 90% of its taxable income in the form of qualifying distributions to shareholders.

Note 2—Basis of Presentation and Accounting Change

Basis of Presentation

The Company’s consolidated financial statements have been prepared in compliance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) as codified in the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) for interim financial information and with the Securities and Exchange Commission’s instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, these financial statements and notes do not include all of the information required by GAAP for complete financial statements. This interim consolidated information should be read together with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, ~~2020.~~2021.

These unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the interim periods presented, but are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that may be anticipated for the full year. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

Preparation of financial statements in compliance with GAAP requires the Company to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results will likely differ from those estimates.

The Company held 0 restricted cash during the periods presented. Therefore, the consolidated statements of cash flows do not include references to restricted cash.

~~Pending~~ Accounting Change

~~In August 2020,~~Effective January 1, 2022, the Company adopted FASB ~~issued~~ Accounting Standards Update 2020-06, Debt – Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40) (“ASU 2020-06”). ASU 2020-06 simplifies the accounting for convertible instruments by removing certain separation models ~~for convertible instruments~~ in ASC subtopic 470-20, Debt – Debt with Conversion and Other Options~~. Under~~ for convertible instruments.

As a result of the ~~amendments in this update:~~

•

the embedded conversion features in debt instruments no longer are separated from the host contract for convertible instruments with conversion features that are not required to be accounted for as derivatives or that do not result in substantial premiums accounted for as paid-in capital. Consequently, a convertible debt instrument will generally be accounted for as a single liability measured at its amortized cost;

•

~~Diluted earnings per share guidance is changed to require that:~~

•

~~an entity is required to include shares issuable pursuant to conversion~~adoption of convertible debt instruments in the determination of diluted earnings per share; current guidance allows an entity to exclude such shares from the diluted earnings per share calculation if the company has a history and policy of cash settlement;

•

an average market price should be used to calculate the diluted EPS denominator in cases in which the exercise prices may change on the basis of an entity’s share price or changes in the entity’s share price may affect the number of shares that may be used to settle a financial instrument; and

•

~~an entity should use the weighted-average share count from each quarter when calculating the year-to-date weighted-average share count.~~

ASU 2020-06, isthe Company reclassified approximately $50.3 million of issuance discount originally recognized in the issuance of Exchangeable senior notes from Additional paid-in capital to the carrying value of the Exchangeable senior notes and $9.4 million of previously recognized accrual of the issuance discount, as an adjustment to the Accumulated deficit effective January 1, 2022. The adoption of ASU 2020-06 reduced Interest expense by approximately $1.7 million for the ~~Company beginning in the~~ quarter ~~ending~~ended March 31, 2022, ~~with early adoption allowed beginning in~~as the ~~quarter ending March 31, 2021 using either~~result of the ~~modified retrospective or full retrospective method. The Company intends to adopt ASU 2020-06 beginning in~~elimination of the ~~quarter ending March 31, 2022.~~issuance discount.

~~As detailed in Note 14 –~~ ~~Long-Term Debt~~, the Company has issued $555 million in unpaid principal balance of exchangeable senior notes that are exchangeable for common shares of beneficial interest (“Common Shares”) (the “Exchangeable Notes”). The Exchangeable Notes will be subject to the guidance included in ASU 2020-06. Adoption of ASU 2020-06 will have the following effects on PMT:

•

The exchange feature included in the Exchangeable Notes can be settled either in cash or common shares at the option of PennyMac Corp. (“PMC”). As a result of this feature and PMT’s intent to cash settle the Exchangeable Notes, the Company presently excludes the effect of exchange of the Exchangeable Notes from diluted earnings per share as allowed under current accounting standards. Adoption of ASU 2020-06 will require the Company to include common shares issuable pursuant to exchange of the Exchangeable Notes in its determination of diluted earnings per share.

•

~~The Company recognized the fair value of the exchange feature as a component of~~ ~~Additional paid-in capital~~ ~~as of the date of issuance of the Exchangeable Notes as required by current guidance. The issuance discount charged to the Exchangeable Notes resulting from the allocation of the issuance discount to~~ ~~Additional paid-in capital~~ ~~is presently accrued to interest expense using the interest method. Upon adoption of ASU 2020-06, the value originally attributed to~~ ~~Additional paid-in capital~~ as of the date of issuance of the Exchangeable Notes will be added to the carrying value of the Exchangeable Notes and the accumulated accrual of the exchange value to interest expense through the date of adoption of ASU 2020-06 will be credited to retained earnings net of income taxes as the cumulative effect of the adoption of ASU 2020-06.

Note 3—Concentration of Risks

As discussed in Note 1—1 – Organization above, PMT’s operations and investing activities are centered in residential mortgage-related assets, including CRT arrangements, ~~MSRs~~subordinate MBS and ~~MBS.~~MSRs. CRT arrangements and subordinate MBS are more sensitive to borrower credit performance than other mortgage-related investments such as traditional loans and Agency MBS. MSRs are sensitive to changes in prepayment rate activity and expectations.

Credit Risk

Note 6 – Variable Interest Entities details the Company’s investments in CRT arrangements whereby the Company sells pools of recently-originated loans into Fannie Mae-guaranteed securitizations while either:

•

through May 2018, entering into CRT Agreements, whereby it retains a portion of the credit risk underlying such loans as part of the retention of an interest-only (“IO”) ownership interest in such loans and an obligation to absorb scheduled credit losses arising from such loans reaching a specific number of days ~~delinquent (“Recourse Obligations”);~~delinquent; or

•

from June 2018 through 2020, entering into firm commitments to purchase and purchasing CRT securities and, upon purchase of such securities, holding CRT strips representing an IO ownership interest that absorbs realized credit losses arising from ~~such loans.~~loans in the reference pools backing the CRT securities. The obligation to absorb the losses for both CRT Agreements and CRT securities represent the Company’s recourse obligations included in the arrangements (“Recourse Obligations”).

The Company also invests in subordinate MBS which are among the first beneficial interests in the related securitizations to absorb credit losses on the underlying loans.

The Company’s retention of credit risk through its investment in CRT arrangements and subordinate MBS subjects it to risks associated with delinquency and foreclosure similar to the risks of loss associated with owning the underlying loans, which is greater than the risk of loss associated with selling such loans to Fannie Mae without the retention of such credit ~~risk.~~risk in the case of CRT arrangements and investing in senior mortgage pass through securities in the case of subordinate MBS.

CRT Agreements are structured such that loans that reach a specific number of days delinquent (including loans in forbearance which also includes those subject to the forbearance provided in the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”)) trigger losses chargeable to the CRT Agreements based on the size of the loan and a contractual schedule of loss severity. Therefore, the risks associated with delinquency and foreclosure may in some instances be greater than the risks associated with owning the related loans because the structure of the CRT Agreements provides that the Company may be required to absorb losses in the event of delinquency or foreclosure even when there is ultimately no loss realized with respect to such loans (e.g., as a result of a borrower’s re-performance). In contrast, the structure of the Company’s investment in CRT strips requires PMT to absorb losses only when the reference loans realize ~~actual~~ losses.

Fair Value Risk

The Company is exposed to fair value risk in addition to the risks specific to credit and, as a result of prevailing market conditions or the economy generally, may be required to recognize losses associated with adverse changes to the fair value of its investments in MSRs, CRT arrangements, and MBS:

•

~~MSRs are generally subject to loss in~~The fair value ~~when~~of MSRs is sensitive to changes in prepayment speeds, ~~increase as a result of decreasing mortgage interest rates, when~~ estimates of cost to service the underlying loans ~~increase~~ or ~~when~~ the returns demanded by market ~~participants increase.~~participants;

•

The fair ~~value~~values of CRT arrangements isand subordinate MBS are sensitive to market perceptions of future credit performance of the underlying loans as well as the actual credit performance of such loans and to the returns required by market participants to hold such ~~investments.~~investments; and

•

The fair value of Agency and senior non-Agency pass through MBS is sensitive to changes in market interest rates.

The Company, through its Operating Partnership, has a loan servicing agreement with PLS (the “Servicing Agreement”) pursuant to which PLS provides subservicing for the Company's portfolio of MSRs, loans held for sale and loans held in VIEs (prime servicing) and its portfolio of residential loans purchased with credit deterioration (distressed loans). The Servicing Agreement provides for servicing fees earned by PLS that are established at a fixed per loan monthly amount based on ~~whether~~ the delinquency, bankruptcy and/or foreclosure status of the serviced loan or real estate acquired in settlement of loans are acquired as prime servicing or distressed loans. PLS is also entitled to market-based fees and charges including boarding and deboarding fees, liquidation and disposition, assumption, modification and origination fees and a percentage of late charges relating to loans it services for the Company, as well as certain fees for COVID-19 pandemic-related forbearance and modification activities provided for under the CARES Act.(“REO”). The Servicing Agreement expires on June 30, 2025, subject to automatic renewal for additional 18-month periods, unless terminated earlier in accordance with its terms.

Prime Servicing

The base servicing fees for ~~non-distressed~~prime loans subserviced by PLS on the Company’s behalf ~~are based on whether the loan is a fixed-rate or adjustable-rate loan. The base servicing fees~~ are $7.50 per month for fixed-rate loans and $8.50 per month for adjustable-rate loans.

To the extent that these ~~non-distressed~~prime loans become delinquent, PLS is entitled to an additional servicing fee per loan ranging from $10 to $55 per month and based on the delinquency, bankruptcy and foreclosure status of the loan or $75 per month if the underlying mortgaged property becomes ~~real estate acquired in settlement of loans (“REO”).~~REO.

PLS is also entitled to customary ancillary income and certain market-based fees and charges, including boarding and deboarding fees, liquidation and disposition fees, assumption, modification and origination ~~fees.~~

Special Servicing (Distressed Loans)

The base servicing fee rates for distressed whole mortgage loans are charged based on a monthly per-loan dollar amount, with the actual dollar amount for each loan based on the delinquency, bankruptcy and/or foreclosure status of such loan or whether the underlying mortgage property has become REO. The base servicing fee rates for distressed whole mortgage loans range from $30 per month for current loans up to $95 per month for loans ~~where~~in foreclosure ~~proceedings have commenced.~~proceedings. The base servicing fee rate for REO is $75 per month. ~~To the extent~~��

MSR Recapture Agreement

The Company has an MSR recapture agreement with PFSI. Pursuant to the terms of the MSR recapture agreement, if PFSI refinances mortgage loans for which the Company previously held the MSRs, ~~through June 30, 2020,~~ PFSI ~~was~~is generally required to transfer and convey to the Company cash in an ~~amount equal to 30% of the fair market value of the MSRs related to all such loans so originated.~~

~~Effective July 1, 2020, the 2020 MSR recapture agreement changed the recapture fee payable by PLS to a tiered~~ amount equal to:

•

40% of the fair market value of the MSRs relating to the recaptured loans subject to the first 15% of the “recapture rate”;

•

35% of the fair market value of the MSRs relating to the recaptured loans subject to the ~~recapture rate~~“recapture rate” in excess of 15% and up to 30%; and

•

30% of the fair market value of the MSRs relating to the recaptured loans subject to the ~~recapture rate~~“recapture rate” in excess of 30%.

The “recapture rate” means, during each month, the ratio of (i) the aggregate unpaid principal balance of all recaptured loans, to (ii) the aggregate unpaid principal balance of all mortgage loans for which the Company held the MSRs and that were refinanced or otherwise paid off in such month. PFSI has further agreed to allocate sufficient resources to target a recapture rate of at least 15%.

The MSR recapture agreement expires, unless terminated earlier in accordance with its terms, on June 30, 2025, subject to automatic renewal for additional 18-month periods, unless terminated in accordance with its terms.

Management Fees

The Company has a management agreement with PCM pursuant to which the Company pays PCM management fees as follows:

•

A base management fee that is calculated quarterly and is equal to the sum of (i) 1.5% per year of average shareholders’ equity up to $2 billion, (ii) 1.375% per year of average shareholders’ equity in excess of $2 billion and up to $5 billion, and (iii) 1.25% per year of average shareholders’ equity in excess of $5 billion.

•

A performance incentive fee that is calculated quarterly at a defined annualized percentage of the amount by which “net income,” on a rolling four-quarter basis and before deducting the incentive fee, exceeds certain levels of return on “equity.”

The performance incentive fee is equal to the sum of: (a) 10% of the amount by which “net income” for the quarter exceeds (i) an 8% return on “equity” plus the “high watermark”, up to (ii) a 12% return on “equity”; plus (b) 15% of the amount by which “net income” for the quarter exceeds (i) a 12% return on “equity” plus the ~~high watermark,~~“high watermark”, up to (ii) a 16% return on “equity”; plus (c) 20% of the amount by which “net income” for the quarter exceeds a 16% return on “equity” plus the “high watermark”.

For the purpose of determining the amount of the performance incentive fee:

“Net income” is defined as net income or loss attributable to ~~Common Shares~~common shares of beneficial interest (“common shares”) calculated in accordance with GAAP, and adjusted to exclude one-time events pursuant to changes in GAAP and certain other non-cash charges after discussion between the ~~Company’s~~ Manager and the Company’s independent trustees and after approval by a majority of the Company’s independent trustees.

“Equity” is the weighted average of the issue price per ~~Common Share~~common share of all of the Company’s public offerings, multiplied by the weighted average number of ~~Common Shares~~common shares outstanding (including restricted share units) in the rolling four-quarter period.

“High watermark” is the quarterly adjustment that reflects the amount by which ~~the~~ “net income” (stated as a percentage of return on equity) in that quarter exceeds or falls short of the lesser of 8% and the average Fannie Mae 30-year MBS yield (the target yield) for the four quarters then ended. The “high watermark” starts at zero and is adjusted quarterly. If ~~the~~ “net income” is lower than the target yield, the ~~high watermark~~“high watermark” is increased by the difference. If ~~the~~ “net income” is higher than the target yield, the ~~high watermark~~“high watermark” is reduced by the difference. Each time a performance incentive fee is earned, the ~~high watermark~~“high watermark” returns to zero. As a result, the threshold amounts required for PCM to earn a performance incentive fee are adjusted cumulatively based on the performance of PMT’s “net income” over (or under) the target yield, until ~~the~~ “net income” in excess of the target yield exceeds the then-current cumulative “high watermark” amount.

The base management fee and the performance incentive fee are both payable quarterly in arrears. The performance incentive fee may be paid in cash or a combination of cash and the Company’s common shares (subject to a limit of no more than 50% paid in ~~Common Shares)~~common shares), at the Company’s option.

In the event of termination of the management agreement between the Company and PCM, PCM may be entitled to a termination fee in certain circumstances. The termination fee is equal to three times the sum of (a) the average annual base management fee, and (b) the average annual performance incentive fee earned by PCM, in each case during the 24-month period before termination.

Expense Reimbursement and Amounts Payable to and Receivable from PCM

Under the management agreement, PCM is entitled to reimbursement of its organizational and operating expenses, including third-party expenses, incurred on the Company’s behalf, it being understood that PCM and its affiliates shall allocate a portion of their personnel’s time to provide certain legal, tax and investor relations services for the direct benefit of the Company. PCM ~~was~~is reimbursed ~~$120,000 per fiscal quarter through June 30, 2020. Effective July 1, 2020, PMT’s reimbursement of PCM’s and its affiliates’ compensation expenses was increased from $120,000 to~~ $165,000 per fiscal quarter, such amount to be reviewed annually and to not preclude reimbursement for any other services performed by PCM or its affiliates.

The Company is required to pay PCM and its affiliates a portion of rent, telephone, utilities, office furniture, equipment, machinery and other office, internal and overhead expenses of PCM and its affiliates required for the Company’s and its subsidiaries’

operations. These expenses are allocated based on the ratio of the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ proportion of gross assets compared to all remaining gross assets owned and managed by PCM as calculated at each fiscal quarter end.

Spread Acquisition and MSR Servicing Agreements

The Company, through a wholly-owned subsidiary, PennyMac Holdings, LLC (“PMH”), has an amended and restated master spread acquisition and MSR servicing agreement with PLS (the “Spread Acquisition Agreement”), pursuant to which the Company may purchase from PLS, from time to time, participation certificates representing beneficial ownership in ESS arising from Ginnie Mae MSRs acquired by PLS, in which case PLS generally would be required to service or subservice the related loans for Ginnie Mae. The primary purpose of the amendment and restatement was to facilitate the continued financing of the ESS owned by the Company in connection with its participation in the GNMA MSR Facility ~~(as defined~~(defined below).

To the extent PLS refinances any of the loans relating to the ESS the Company has acquired, the Spread Acquisition Agreement also contains recapture provisions requiring that PLS transfer to the Company, at no cost, the ESS relating to a certain percentage of the ~~unpaid principal balance~~UPB of the newly originated loans. However, under the Spread Acquisition Agreement, in any month where

the transferred ESS relating to newly originated Ginnie Mae loans is not equal to at least 90% of the product of the excess servicing fee rate and the ~~unpaid principal balance~~UPB of the refinanced loans, PLS is also required to transfer additional ESS or cash in the amount of such shortfall. Similarly, in any month where the transferred ESS relating to modified Ginnie Mae loans is not equal to at least 90% of the product of the excess servicing fee rate and the ~~unpaid principal balance~~UPB of the modified loans, the Spread Acquisition Agreement contains provisions that require PLS to transfer additional ESS or cash in the amount of such shortfall. To the extent the fair market value of the aggregate ESS to be transferred for the applicable month is less than $200,000, PLS may, at its option, settle its recapture liability to the Company in cash in an amount equal to such fair market value in lieu of transferring such ESS.

The remaining balance of the ESS was repaid during the quarter ended March 31, ~~2021~~.2021.

Financing Activities

PFSI held 75,000 of the Company’s common shares at both March 31, ~~2021~~2022 and December 31, ~~2020.~~2021.

Repurchase Agreement with PLS

~~On December 19, 2016, the~~The Company, through PMH, ~~entered into~~has a master repurchase agreement with PLS (the “PMH Repurchase Agreement”), pursuant to which PMH may borrow from PLS for the purpose of financing PMH’s participation certificates representing beneficial ownership in ESS acquired from PLS under the Spread Acquisition Agreement. PLS then re-pledges such participation certificates to PNMAC GMSR ISSUER TRUST (the “Issuer Trust”) under a master repurchase agreement by and among PLS, the Issuer Trust and Private National Mortgage Acceptance Company, LLC, as guarantor (the “PC Repurchase Agreement”). The Issuer Trust was formed for the purpose of allowing PLS to finance MSRs and ESS relating to such MSRs (the “GNMA MSR Facility”).

In the first quarter of 2021, PLS repurchased the ESS from PMH at fair market value, effectively terminating the borrowing arrangements allowing PMH to finance its participation certificates representing beneficial ownership in ESS.

In connection with the GNMA MSR Facility, PLS pledges and/or sells to the Issuer Trust participation certificates representing beneficial interests in MSRs and ESS pursuant to the terms of the PC Repurchase Agreement. In return, the Issuer Trust (a) has issued to PLS, pursuant to the terms of an indenture, the Series 2016-MSRVF1 Variable Funding Note, dated December 19, 2016, known as the “PNMAC GMSR ISSUER TRUST MSR Collateralized Notes, Series 2016-MSRVF1” (the “VFN”), and (b) may, from time to time pursuant to the terms of any supplemental indenture, issue to institutional investors additional term notes (“Term Notes”), in each case secured on a pari passu basis by the participation certificates relating to the MSRs and ESS. The maximum principal balance of the VFN is $1 billion.

(“PMC”), entered into CRT Agreements with Fannie Mae, pursuant to which PMC, through subsidiary trust entities, sold pools of loans into Fannie Mae-guaranteed securitizations while retaining Recourse Obligations as part of the retention of IO ownership interests in such loans. The ~~transfers of loans subject to CRT arrangements were accounted for as sales. The~~ Company placed Deposits securing ~~CRT~~credit risk transfer arrangements pledged to creditors into the subsidiary trust entities to secure its Recourse Obligations. The ~~Deposits securing CRT arrangements~~ ~~represent the Company’s maximum contractual exposure to claims under~~Company recognizes its IO ownership interests and Recourse Obligations on the consolidated balance sheets as CRT Derivatives in Derivative assets and ~~are the sole source of settlement of losses under the CRT Agreements.~~Derivative and credit risk transfer strip liabilities.

The Company’s exposure to losses under its Recourse Obligations was initially established at rates ranging from 3.5% to 4.0% of the UPB of the loans sold under the CRT arrangements. As the UPB of the ~~underlying~~ loans ~~subject to~~underlying each CRT ~~arrangements~~arrangement is reduced through repayments, the percentage exposure of each CRT arrangement will increase to maximums ranging from 4.5% to 5.0% of outstanding UPB, although the total dollar amount of exposure to losses does not increase. The final sales of loans subject to the CRT Agreements were made during May 2018.

Effective in June 2018, the Company began entering into a different ~~types~~type of CRT ~~arrangements.~~arrangement. Under the new ~~arrangements,~~arrangement, the Company sold loans subject to agreements that required ~~the Company~~PMT to purchase securities that absorb incurred credit losses on such loans. The ~~Company recognized these purchase commitments initially as a component of~~ ~~Net gains on loans acquired for sale; subsequent changes in fair value were recognized in~~ ~~Net gains (losses) on investments. The~~ final sales of loans subject to this type of CRT arrangement were made during September 2020.

Subordinate Mortgage-Backed Securities

~~Jumbo Loan Financing~~The Company retains or purchases subordinate MBS in transactions sponsored by PMC or a nonaffiliate. Cash inflows from these loans are distributed to investors and service providers in accordance with the contractual priority of payments and, as such, most of these inflows must be directed first to service and repay the senior certificates.

~~On September 30, 2013,~~The rights of holders of the subordinate certificates to receive distributions of principal and/or interest, as applicable, are subordinate to the rights of holders of the senior certificates. After the senior certificates are repaid, substantially all cash inflows will be directed to the subordinate certificates, including those held by the Company, ~~completed a securitization transaction~~until they are fully repaid.

The Company’s retention or purchase of subordinate MBS exposes PMT to the credit risk in ~~which PMT Loan Trust 2013-J1 issued $537.0 million~~the underlying loans because the Company’s beneficial interests are among the first beneficial interests to absorb credit losses on those assets. The Company’s exposure to losses from its investments in ~~UPB~~subordinate MBS is limited to its recorded investment in such securities.

Whether the Company concludes that it is the primary beneficiary of ~~certificates backed by fixed-rate prime jumbo loans, at a 3.9% weighted yield.~~ the VIEs issuing these subordinate MBS and therefore consolidates these entities is based on its exposure to losses that could be significant to the VIEs and its power to direct activities that most significantly impact the VIEs’ economic performance:

•

Certain of the Company’s investments in subordinate MBS either do not expose the Company to losses that could be significant to the issuing VIE or the Company has concluded that it does not have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance. These investments are classified as credit linked securities in its investment in MBS as shown in Note 8 – Mortgage-Backed Securities.

•

For other investments in subordinate MBS, comprised of transactions backed by loans purchased by the Company that were subsequently included in securitizations sponsored by the Company or a nonaffiliate and serviced by PLS, the Company concluded that it is the primary beneficiary of the VIEs as it has the power, through PLS, in its role as the servicer or sub-servicer of the loans, to direct the activities of the VIEs that most significantly impact the VIEs’ economic performance and, as a holder of subordinate securities, is exposed to losses that could potentially be significant to the VIEs. Therefore, PMT consolidates those VIEs.

The Company ~~includes~~recognizes the ~~balance of the loans held in the trust in~~ ~~Loans at fair value~~ ~~and the certificates issued to nonaffiliates in~~ ~~Asset backed financing of a variable~~ interest ~~entity at fair value~~ ~~in its consolidated balance sheets~~. ~~The Company includes the interest~~income earned on the loans ~~held in~~owned by the ~~trust in~~ ~~Interest Income – from nonaffiliates~~ consolidated VIEs and the interest ~~paid~~expense attributable to the asset-backed securities issued to nonaffiliates in ~~Interest Expense – to nonaffiliates~~ inby the consolidated VIEs on its consolidated statements of operations.

Note 7— Fair Value

The Company’s consolidated financial statements include assets and liabilities that are measured at or based on their fair values. Measurement at or based on fair value may be on a recurring or nonrecurring basis depending on the accounting principles applicable to the specific asset or liability and whether the Company has elected to carry the item at its fair value as discussed in the following paragraphs.

The Company groups its assets and liabilities at fair value in three levels, based on the markets in which the assets and liabilities are traded and the observability of the inputs used to determine fair value. These levels are:

•

Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

•

Level 2—Prices determined or determinable using other significant observable inputs. Observable inputs are inputs that other market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability and are developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company.

•

Level 3—Prices determined using significant unobservable inputs. In situations where significant observable inputs are unavailable, unobservable inputs may be used. Unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s own judgments about the factors that market participants use in pricing an asset or liability, and are based on the best information available in the circumstances.

As a result of the difficulty in observing certain significant valuation inputs affecting “Level 3” fair value assets and liabilities, the Company is required to make judgments regarding these items’ fair values. Different persons in possession of the same facts may reasonably arrive at different conclusions as to the inputs to be applied in valuing these assets and liabilities and their fair values. Such differences may result in significantly different fair value measurements. Likewise, due to the general illiquidity of some of these assets and liabilities, subsequent transactions may be at values significantly different from those reported.

The Company reclassifies its assets and liabilities between levels of the fair value hierarchy when the inputs required to establish fair value at a level of the fair value hierarchy are no longer readily available, requiring the use of lower-level inputs, or when the inputs required to establish fair value at a higher level of the hierarchy become available.

Fair Value Accounting Elections

The Company identified all of PMT’s non-cash financial assets ~~its~~ ~~Firm commitment to purchase CRT securities~~ and MSRs to be accounted for at fair value. The Company has elected to account for these assets at fair value so such changes in fair value will be reflected in ~~its results of operations~~income as they occur and more timely reflect the results of the Company’s performance.

The Company has also identified its Asset-backed ~~financing of a VIE~~financings at fair value and Interest-only security payable at fair value ~~to be accounted for at fair value~~ to reflect the generally offsetting changes in fair value of these borrowings to changes in fair value of the assets at fair value collateralizing these financings. For other borrowings, the Company has determined that historical cost accounting is more appropriate because under this method debt issuance costs are amortized over the term of the debt facility, thereby matching the debt issuance cost to the periods benefiting from the availability of the debt.

The Company remeasures its REO based on fair value when it evaluates the REO for impairment. The Company evaluates its REO for impairment with reference to the respective properties’ fair values less cost to sell. REO may be revalued after acquisition due to the Company receiving greater access to the property, the property being held for an extended period or receiving indications that the property’s fair value may not be supported by developing market conditions. Any subsequent change in fair value to a level that is less than or equal to the property’s cost is recognized in Results of real estate acquired in settlement of loans in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments Carried at Amortized Cost

Most of the Company’s borrowings are carried at amortized cost. The Company’s Assets sold under agreements to repurchase, Mortgage loan participation purchase and sale agreements,, Notes payable secured by credit risk transfer and mortgage servicing assets andExchangeable senior notes ~~and~~ ~~Assets sold to PennyMac Financial Services, Inc. under agreements to repurchase~~are classified as “Level 3” fair value liabilities due to the Company’s reliance on unobservable inputs to estimate these instruments’ fair values.

The Company has concluded that the fair values of these borrowings other than Notes payable secured by credit risk transfer and mortgage servicing assets and Exchangeable senior notes approximate the agreements’ carrying values due to the borrowing agreements’ variable interest rates and short maturities.

Following are the carrying and fair values of the Notes payable secured by credit risk transfer and mortgage servicing assets and Exchangeable senior notes:

Valuation Governance

Most of the Company’s assets, its Asset-backed ~~financing of a VIE~~financings at fair value, Interest-only security payable at fair value and Derivative and credit risk transfer strip liabilities at fair value are carried at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in current period results of operations. A substantial portion of these items are “Level 3” fair value assets and liabilities which require the use of unobservable inputs that are significant to the estimation of the fair values of the assets and liabilities. Unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s own judgments about the factors that market participants use in pricing an asset or liability and are based on the best information available under the circumstances.

Due to the difficulty in estimating the fair values of “Level 3” fair value assets and liabilities, the Company has assigned responsibility for estimating the fair value of these assets and liabilities to specialized staff and subjects the valuation process to significant senior management oversight. PFSI’s Financial Analysis and Valuation group (the “FAV group”) is responsible for estimating the fair values of “Level 3” fair value assets and liabilities other than IRLCs and maintaining its valuation policies and procedures. The fair value of the Company’s IRLCs is developed by PFSI’s Capital Markets Risk Management staff and is reviewed by the PFSI’s Capital Markets Operations group.oversight:

PFSI’s Financial Analysis and Valuation group (the “FAV group”) is responsible for estimating the fair values of “Level 3” fair value assets and liabilities other than IRLCs and maintaining its valuation policies and procedures.

•

PFSI’s Capital Markets Risk Management staff develops the fair value of the Company’s IRLCs which is reviewed by PFSI’s Capital Markets Operations group.

With respect to the non-IRLC “Level 3” valuations, the FAV group reports to PFSI’s senior management valuation committee, which oversees the valuations. The FAV group monitors the models used for valuation of the Company’s “Level 3” fair value assets and liabilities other than IRLCs, including the models’ performance versus actual results, and reports those results to PFSI’s senior management valuation committee. PFSI’s senior management valuation committee includes the Company’s chief ~~operating,~~ financial, investment and ~~risk~~credit officers as well as other senior members of the Company’s finance, capital markets and risk management staffs.

The FAV group is responsible for reporting to PFSI’s senior management valuation committee on the changes in the valuation of the non-IRLC “Level 3” fair value assets and liabilities, including major factors affecting the valuation and any changes in model methods and inputs. To assess the reasonableness of its valuations, the FAV group presents an analysis of the effect on the valuation of changes to the significant inputs to the models.

Valuation Techniques and Inputs

The following is a description of the techniques and inputs used in estimating the fair values of “Level 2” and “Level 3” fair value assets and liabilities:

Mortgage-Backed Securities

The Company categorizes its current holdings of MBS as “Level 2” fair value assets. Fair value of these MBS is established based on quoted market prices for the Company’s MBS holdings or similar securities. Changes in the fair value of MBS are included in Net (losses) gains ~~(losses)~~ on investments and financings in the consolidated statements of operations.

Loans

Fair value of loans is estimated based on whether the loans are saleable into active markets:

•

Loans that are saleable into active markets, comprised of most of the Company’s loans acquired for sale at fair value and all of the loans at fair value held in ~~a VIE,~~VIEs, are categorized as “Level 2” fair value assets:

•

For loans acquired for sale, the fair values are established using the loans’ contracted selling price or quoted market price or market price equivalent.

•

For the loans at fair value held in ~~a VIE,~~VIEs, the quoted indications of fair value of all of the individual securities issued by the securitization ~~trust~~trusts are used to derive a fair ~~value~~values for the loans. The Company obtains indications of fair value from nonaffiliated brokers based on comparable securities and validates the brokers’ indications of fair value using pricing models and inputs the Company believes are similar to the models and inputs used by other market participants. The Company adjusts the fair values received from brokers to include the fair value of MSRs attributable to the loans held by the Company included in the VIEs.

•

Loans that are not saleable into active markets, comprised of previously sold loans that the Company repurchased pursuant to the representation and warranties it provided to the purchaser and distressed loans, are categorized as “Level 3” fair value assets:

•

~~For~~Fair value for loans acquired for sale categorized as “Level 3” ~~fair value~~ assets ~~fair values are~~is estimated using a discounted cash flow approach. Inputs to the discounted cash flow model include current interest rates, loan amount, payment status, property type, discount rates and forecasts of future interest rates, home prices, prepayment speeds, default speeds, loss severities or contracted selling price when applicable.

•

~~Distressed loan fair values are~~Fair value for distressed loans is estimated based on the expected resolution to be realized from the individual asset’s disposition strategy. When a cash flow projection is used to estimate the fair value of the resolution, those cash flows are discounted at annual rates up to 20%.

~~Excess Servicing Spread Purchased from PFSI~~

The Company categorizes ESS as a “Level 3” fair value asset. The Company uses a discounted cash flow approach to estimate the fair value of ESS. The key inputs used in the estimation of the fair value of ESS include pricing spread (discount rate) and prepayment speed. Significant changes to those inputs in isolation may result in a significant change in the ESS fair value measurement. Changes in these key inputs are not directly related. ~~Changes in the fair value of ESS are included in~~ ~~Net gains (losses)~~ on ~~investments~~ ~~in the consolidated statements of~~ ~~operations~~. ~~The remaining balance of the ESS was repaid during the quarter ended March 31, 2021.~~

~~(3)~~

~~Prepayment speed is measured using Life Total Conditional Prepayment Rate (“CPR”). Equivalent life is provided for informational purposes.~~

Derivative and Credit Risk Transfer Strip Assets and Liabilities

CRT Derivatives

The Company categorizes CRT derivatives as “Level 3” fair value assets and liabilities. The fair value of CRT derivatives is based on indications of fair value provided to the Company by nonaffiliated brokers for the certificates representing the beneficial interests in the ~~trust~~trusts holding the Deposits securing credit risk transfer arrangements pledged to creditors, the Recourse Obligations and the IO ownership interests. Together, the Recourse Obligation and the IO ownership interest comprise the CRT derivative. Fair value of the CRT derivative is derived by deducting the balance of the Deposits securing credit risk transfer arrangements pledged to creditors from the fair value of the certificates.

The Company assesses the fair values it receives from nonaffiliated brokers using the discounted cash flow approach. The significant unobservable inputs used by the Company in its review and approval of the valuation of CRT derivatives ~~and CRT strips~~ are the discount rate, voluntary and involuntary prepayment speeds and the remaining loss expectations of the reference loans. Changes in fair value of CRT derivatives are included in Net (losses) gains ~~(losses)~~ on investments and financings in the consolidated statements of operations.

Following is a quantitative summary of key unobservable inputs used in the Company’s review and approval of broker-provided fair values for CRT derivatives:

Interest Rate Lock Commitments

The Company categorizes IRLCs as “Level 3” fair value assets and liabilities. The Company estimates the fair value of IRLCs based on quoted Agency MBS prices, the probability that the loan will be purchased under the commitment (the “pull-through rate”) and the Company’s estimate of the fair value of the MSRs it expects to receive upon sale of the loan.

The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Company’s IRLCs are the pull-through rate and the estimated MSR ~~component of~~attributed to the ~~Company’s estimate of the fair value of the~~mortgage loans it has committed to purchase. Significant changes in the pull-through rate or the MSR component of the IRLCs, in isolation, may result in a significant change in the IRLCs’ fair value. The financial effects of changes in these inputs are generally inversely correlated as increasing interest rates have a positive effect on the fair value of the MSR component of ~~IRLC~~IRLCs’ fair value, but also increase the pull-through rate for the loan principal and interest payment cash flow component that has decreased in fair value. Changes in fair value of IRLCs are included in Net gains on loans acquired for sale in the consolidated statements of operations.

Following is a quantitative summary of key unobservable inputs used in the valuation of IRLCs:

Hedging Derivatives

Fair ~~values~~value of derivative financial instruments actively traded on exchanges are categorized by the Company as “Level 1” fair value assets and ~~liabilities; fair~~liabilities. Fair values of derivative financial instruments based on observable interest rates, volatilities and prices in the MBS or other markets are categorized by the Company as “Level 2” fair value assets and liabilities. Changes in the fair value of hedging derivatives are included in Net (losses) gains on investments and financings, Net gains on loans acquired for sale ~~Net gains (losses) on investments~~, or Net loan servicing fees – from nonaffiliates – Mortgage servicing rights hedging results, as applicable, in the consolidated statements of operations.

Credit Risk Transfer Strips

The Company categorizes CRT strips as “Level 3” fair value assets or liabilities. The fair value of CRT strips is based on indications of fair value provided to the Company by nonaffiliated brokers for the certificates representing the beneficial ~~interest~~interests in the trust holding the ~~CRT strips and~~Deposits securing ~~CRT~~credit risk transfer arrangements pledged to creditors, the IO ownership interest and Recourse ~~Obligations.~~Obligation. Together, the IO ownership interest and the Recourse Obligation ~~and the IO Ownership interest~~ comprise the CRT ~~strip. The~~strips.

Fair value of the CRT strips is derived by deducting the balance of the Deposits securing credit risk transfer arrangements pledged to creditors from the fair value of the certificates derived from indications provided by the nonaffiliated brokers. Through December 31, 2021, the Company ~~applies~~applied adjustments to the fair value derived from these indications to account for contractual restrictions limiting PMT’s ability to sell certain of the certificates. ~~Fair value~~During the quarter ended March 31, 2022, the contractual restrictions on the Company’s ability to sell the certificates were removed.

(3)	Involuntary prepayment speed is measured using Life Involuntary CPR.

(4)	Remaining loss expectation is measured as expected future losses divided by the UPB of the loans in the reference pools.

~~Real Estate Acquired in Settlement of Loans~~

REO is measured based on its fair value on a nonrecurring basis and is categorized as a “Level 3” fair value asset. Fair value of REO is established by using a current estimate of fair value from either a broker’s price opinion, a full appraisal, or the price given in a pending contract of sale.

REO fair values are reviewed by PLS staff appraisers when the Company obtains multiple indications of fair value and there is a significant difference between the fair values received. PLS staff appraisers will attempt to resolve the difference between the indications of fair value. In circumstances where the staff appraisers are not able to generate adequate data to support a fair value conclusion, the staff appraisers obtain an additional appraisal to determine fair value. Recognized changes in the fair value of REO are included in ~~Results of real estate acquired in settlement of loans~~ ~~in the consolidated statements of operations.~~

Mortgage Servicing Rights

The Company uses a discounted cash flow approach to estimate the fair value of MSRs. The fair value of MSRs is derived from the net positive cash flows associated with the servicing agreements. The Company receives a servicing fee based on the remaining ~~outstanding principal balances~~UPB of the loans subject to the servicing agreements. The Company generally has the right to receive other remuneration including various mortgagor-contracted fees such as late charges and collateral reconveyance charges, and the Company is generally entitled to retain any placement fees earned on funds held pending remittance of mortgagor principal, interest, tax and insurance payments.

The key inputs used in the estimation of the fair value of MSRs include the applicable pricing spread, the prepayment ~~rates~~speeds of the underlying loans ~~(“prepayment speed”)~~ and the annual per-loan cost to service the loans, all of which are unobservable. Significant changes to any of those inputs in isolation could result in a significant change in the MSR fair value measurement. Changes in these key inputs are not directly related. Changes in the fair value of MSRs are included in Net loan servicing fees – ~~from~~From nonaffiliates – Change in fair value of mortgage servicing rights in the consolidated statements of operations.

MSRs are generally subject to loss in fair value when returns required by market participants (pricing spreads) increase, when mortgage interest rates decrease, or when annual per-loan cost of servicing ~~increases, or when returns required by market participants increase.~~increases. Reductions in the fair value of MSRs affect income primarily through recognition of the change in fair value.

Following are the key inputs used in determining the fair value of MSRs at the time of initial recognition:

Litigation

From time to time, the Company may be involved in various proceedings, claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. The amount, if any, of ultimate liability with respect to such matters cannot be determined, but despite the inherent uncertainties of litigation, management believes that the ultimate disposition of any such proceedings and exposure will not have, individually or taken together, a material adverse effect on the financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows of the Company.

Cessation of the LIBOR Index

The Company is involved in both lending and financing transactions that use the LIBOR index to establish the applicable interest or dividend rates. It has been announced that this index will no longer be published. The Company services LIBOR-based adjustable rate mortgages for which the underlying mortgage notes incorporate fallback provisions. The Company also has certain debt agreements and preferred shares of beneficial interest that have not yet transitioned from LIBOR to a replacement index but contain replacement provisions related to the transition from LIBOR. The Company cannot anticipate whether the response of borrowers, note holders or preferred shareholders to the adoption of the replacement indices adopted by the Company will result in future losses to PMT.

Note ~~21—~~22—Share-Based Compensation

The Company has adopted an equity incentive plan which provides for the issuance of equity based awards based on PMT’s common shares that may be made by the Company to its officers and trustees, and the members, officers, trustees, directors and employees of PCM, PFSI, or their affiliates and to PCM, PFSI and other entities that provide services to PMT and the employees of such other entities.

The equity incentive plan is administered by the Company’s compensation committee, pursuant to authority delegated by PMT’s board of trustees, which has the authority to make awards to the eligible participants referenced above, and to determine what form the awards will take, and the terms and conditions of the awards.

The ~~Company’s~~Company's equity incentive plan allows for ~~grants~~the grant of ~~share-based awards up to an aggregate of 8% of PMT’s issued~~restricted and ~~outstanding shares on a diluted basis at the time of the award.~~performance-based share unit awards.

The shares underlying award grants will again be available for award under the equity incentive plan if:

•

any shares subject to an award granted under the equity incentive plan are forfeited, canceled, exchanged or surrendered;

•

an award terminates or expires without a distribution of shares to the participant; or

•

shares are surrendered or withheld by PMT as payment of either the exercise price of an award and/or withholding taxes for an award.

Restricted share units have been awarded to trustees and officers of the Company and to other employees of PFSI and its subsidiaries at no cost to the grantees. Such awards generally vest over a one-to three-year period.

Note ~~22—~~23—Income Taxes

The Company’s effective tax rate was ~~21.3%~~205.9% with consolidated pretax income of ~~$91.0~~$18.1 million for the quarter ended March 31, ~~2021.~~2022. The Company’s taxable REIT subsidiary (“TRS”) recognized a tax expense of $37.9 million on pretax income of $272.8 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2022. The TRS income was primarily due to increases in MSR fair values. For the same period in 2021, the TRS recognized a tax expense of $19.4 million on pretax income of $88.1 million. The Company’s reported consolidated pretax income was $91.0 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2020. For the same period in 2020, the TRS recognized tax expense of $10.1 million on pretax loss of $21.8 million, while the Company’s reported consolidated pretax loss for the quarter ended March 31, 2020 was $584.4 million.2021. The primary difference between the Company’s effective tax rate and the statutory tax rate is generally attributable to nontaxable REIT income resulting from the dividends paid deduction.

The Company assesses the available positive and negative evidence to estimate whether sufficient future taxable income will be generated to permit use of the existing deferred tax assets. On the basis of this evaluation, as of March 31, ~~2021,~~2022, the valuation allowance was ~~reduced~~decreased to $0$6.8 million from the ~~$110,000~~$34.1 million valuation allowance recorded at December 31, ~~2020~~2021 as the result of ~~positive~~ GAAP income at the TRS for the quarter ended March 31, ~~2021.~~ 2022. The amount of deferred tax assets considered realizable could be adjusted in future periods based on future ~~income~~.income.

The CARES Act, passed in March 2020, introduced a number of tax law changes which are generally taxpayer favorable and, in December 2020, the Taxpayer Certainty and Disaster Tax Relief Act was signed into law. No material changes in our effective income tax rates resulted from either Act. ~~The~~While the CARES Act ~~does provide~~provides for carry back of losses from 2018, 2019 and ~~2020. However,~~2020, the TRS does not have taxable income from prior years to which the losses could be carried back.

In general, cash dividends declared by the Company will be considered ordinary income to the shareholders for income tax purposes. Some portion of the dividends may be characterized as capital gain distributions or a return of capital. For tax years beginning after December 31, 2017, the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (subject to certain limitations) provides a 20% deduction from taxable income for ordinary REIT dividends.

Note ~~23—~~24—Earnings Per Common Share

The Company grants restricted share units which entitle the recipients to receive dividend equivalents during the vesting period on a basis equivalent to the dividends paid to holders of common shares. Unvested share-based compensation awards containing non-forfeitable rights to receive dividends or dividend equivalents (collectively, “dividends”) are classified as “participating securities” and are included in the basic earnings per share calculation using the two-class method.

Under the two-class method, all earnings (distributed and undistributed) are allocated to common shares and participating securities based on their respective rights to receive dividends. Basic earnings per share is determined by dividing net income available to common shareholders (net income reduced by preferred dividends and income attributable to the participating securities) by the weighted average common shares outstanding during the period.

~~Diluted earnings per share is determined by dividing net income attributable to diluted shareholders, which adds back to net income the interest expense, net~~As discussed in Note 2 ‒ Basis of ~~applicable income taxes, on the 2020 Notes, by the weighted average common shares outstanding, assuming all dilutive securities were issued. The Company~~Presentation and Accounting Change ‒ Accounting Change, PMC issued the Exchangeable Notes. The Exchangeable Notes include cash conversion options. ~~The Company intends~~Through December 31, 2021, based on the Company’s intention to cash settle the Exchangeable ~~Notes. Therefore,~~Notes, the effect of conversion of the Exchangeable Notes iswas excluded from diluted earnings ~~(loss)~~(losses) per common share. Effective January 1, 2022, the Company adopted ASU 2020-06, which requires inclusion of the common shares issuable pursuant to conversion of the Exchangeable Notes in the Company’s diluted earnings per common share calculation when the effect of such inclusion is dilutive to earnings per common share.

Our Company

We are a specialty finance company that invests primarily in mortgage-related assets. Our objective is to provide attractive risk-adjusted returns to our investors over the long-term, primarily through dividends and secondarily through capital appreciation. Our investment focus is on the mortgage-related assets that we create through our correspondent production activities, including mortgage servicing rights (“MSRs”), subordinate mortgage-backed securities (“MBS”), and credit risk transfer (“CRT”) arrangements, which include CRT Agreements and CRT strips that absorb credit losses on certain of the loans we sold. We also invest in ~~mortgage-backed securities (“MBS”).~~Agency MBS and senior non-Agency MBS. We have also historically invested in distressed mortgage assets ~~(loans~~(distressed loans and real estate acquired in settlement of loans (“REO”)), which we have substantially liquidated.

We are externally managed by PNMAC Capital Management, LLC (“PCM”), an investment adviser that specializes in and focuses on U.S. mortgage assets. Our loans and MSRs are serviced by PennyMac Loan Services, LLC (“PLS”). PCM and PLS are both indirect controlled subsidiaries of PennyMac Financial Services, Inc. (“PFSI”), a publicly-traded mortgage banking and investment management company.

During the quarter ended March 31, 2022, we purchased newly originated prime credit quality residential loans with fair values totaling $23.3 billion as compared to $53.2 billion for the quarter ended March 31, 2021, in our correspondent production business. To the extent that we purchase loans that are insured by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development through the Federal Housing Administration, or insured or guaranteed by the Veterans Administration or U.S. Department of Agriculture, we and PLS have agreed that PLS will fulfill and purchase such loans, as PLS is a Government National Mortgage Association (“Ginnie Mae”) approved issuer and we are not. This arrangement has enabled us to compete with other correspondent aggregators that purchase both government and conventional loans. We receive a sourcing fee from PLS based on the unpaid principal balance (“UPB”) of each loan that we sell to PLS under such arrangement, and earn interest income on the loan for the period we hold it before the sale to PLS. During the quarter ended March 31, 2022, we received sourcing fees totaling $1.3 million, relating to $12.7 billion in UPB of loans that we sold to PLS.

We operate our business in four segments: Correspondent production, Interest rate sensitive strategies, Credit sensitive strategies and our Corporate operations as described below.

Our Investment Activities

Correspondent Production

Our correspondent production activities involve the acquisition and sale of newly originated prime credit quality residential loans. Correspondent production serves as the source of our investments in MSRs, private label non-Agency securitizations, and, through 2020, CRT arrangements. Our correspondent production and resulting investment activity are summarized below:

		Quarter ended March 31,
		2022		2021

Total investments resulting from correspondent activities		$	218,081	$	407,696

Interest Rate Sensitive Investments

Our interest rate sensitive investments include:

•

Mortgage servicing rights. During the quarter ended March 31, 2022, we received approximately $194.6 million of MSRs as proceeds from sales of loans acquired for sale. We held approximately $3.4 billion of MSRs at fair value at March 31, 2022.

•

REIT-eligible mortgage-backed or mortgage-related securities. We purchased approximately $661.8 million of MBS during the quarter ended March 31, 2022. We held MBS with fair values totaling approximately $3.1 billion at March 31, 2022.

Credit Sensitive Investments

CRT Arrangements

At present, we are no longer creating new CRT investments as the Federal Housing Finance Agency (“FHFA”) instructed the Federal National Mortgage Association (“Fannie Mae”) and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“Freddie Mac”) to gradually wind down new front-end lender risk share transactions such as CRT investments as of the end of 2020. During the quarter ended March 31, ~~2021,~~2022, we recognized investment ~~gain~~losses of ~~$154.2~~approximately $35.4 million relating to our holdings of CRT securities. We held net CRT-related investments (comprised of deposits securing CRT arrangements, CRT derivatives, CRT strips and interest-only security payable) totaling ~~$2.6~~approximately $1.4 billion at March 31, ~~2021.~~2022.

~~Interest Rate Sensitive Investments~~Securities Backed by Loans Secured by Investment Properties

~~Our interest rate sensitive investments include:~~

•

Mortgage servicing rights. During the quarter ended March 31, 2021, we received $407.7 million of MSRs as proceeds from sales of loans acquired for sale. We held $2.4 billion of MSRs at fair value at March 31, 2021.

•

REIT-eligible mortgage-backed or mortgage-related securities. We purchased and sold $1.3 billion of MBS during the quarter ended March 31, 2021. The purchases and sales during the period reflect a restructuring of our investment in MBS aimed at reducing prepayment and price risk relating to these assets. We held MBS with fair values totaling $1.9 billion at March 31, 2021.

~~Correspondent Production~~

~~Our~~Beginning in the quarter ended June 30, 2021, the Company purchased or retained approximately $94.6 million of subordinate MBS backed by loans secured by investment properties sourced from the Company’s conventional correspondent production ~~activities involve~~activities. The subordinate MBS provide us with a higher yield than senior securities. However, we retain credit risk in the ~~acquisition~~subordinate MBS since they are the first securities to absorb credit losses relating to the underlying loans.

As the result of the Company’s consolidation of the variable interest entities that issued the subordinate MBS described in Note 6 – Variable Interest Entities – Subordinate Mortgage-Backed Securities to the consolidated financial statements included in this Report, we include loans underlying these and ~~sale~~similar transactions with UPBs totaling approximately $1.8 billion on our consolidated balance sheet as of newly originated prime credit quality residential loans. Correspondent production serves as the source of our investments in MSRs and, through 2020, CRT arrangements. Our correspondent production and resulting investment activity are summarized below:

~~(1)~~Taxation

~~Initial recognition of firm commitment upon sale of loans.~~

~~Taxation~~

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.

A portion of our activities, including our correspondent production business, is conducted in our taxable REIT subsidiary (“TRS”), which is subject to corporate federal and state income taxes. Accordingly, we make a provision for income taxes with respect to the operations of our TRS. We expect that the effective rate for the provision for income taxes may be volatile in future periods. Our goal is to manage the business to take full advantage of the tax benefits afforded to us as a REIT.

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 evaluation considers, among other factors, taxable loss carryback availability, expectations of sufficient future taxable income, trends in earnings, existence of taxable income in recent years, the future reversal of temporary differences, and available tax planning strategies that could be implemented, if required. The ultimate realization of our deferred tax assets depends primarily on our ability to generate future taxable income during the periods in which the related deferred tax assets become deductible.

Non-Cash Investment Income

A substantial portion of our net investment income is comprised of non-cash items, including fair value adjustments, recognition of the fair value of assets created and liabilities incurred in loan sale transactions and the capitalization and amortization of certain assets and liabilities. Because we have elected, or are required by accounting principles generally accepted ~~accounting principles,~~in the United States (“GAAP”), to record certain of our financial assets (comprised of MBS, loans acquired for sale at fair value, loans at fair value and ESS), our ~~firm commitment to purchase~~derivatives and CRT ~~securities, our derivatives,~~strips, our MSRs, and our asset-backed ~~financing~~financings and interest-only security payable at fair value, a substantial portion of the income or loss we record with respect to such assets and liabilities results from non-cash changes in fair value.

The amounts of non-cash investment (loss) income ~~(loss)~~ items included in net investment income are as follows:

These developments have resulted~~Federal Funds rate in ~~continued economic uncertainty, financial hardships and unemployment for many existing borrowers.~~

As part of its response to the Pandemic, the federal government included requirements in the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”) that we provide borrowers with loans we service subject to Agency securitizations with substantial payment forbearance. As a result of this requirement, we have seen a large increase in delinquencies in our servicing portfolio which has increased our cost to service those loans and may require us to finance substantial amounts of advances of principal and interest payments to the holders of the securities holding those loans, as well as property tax and insurance costs to protect investor’s interest in the properties collateralizing the loans. As of December 31, 2020, 2.3% of the loans in our MSR portfolio were in COVID-19 pandemic related forbearance provided for under the CARES Act.

The emergence of the COVID-19 pandemic created significant disruption in the financial markets as well as changing market perceptions of future credit losses to be incurred on investments in mortgage loans. The primary effect of this disruption on the Company has been on our credit sensitive strategies. Since the first quarter of ~~2020,~~2022 and is expected to continue to raise interest rates through the ~~credit markets have recovered somewhat,~~year as ~~reflected most recently~~well as reduce the federal government’s overall portfolio of Treasury and mortgage-backed securities.

With the return of other market participants, our gain-on-sale margins in our correspondent production activities have moderated from 2020 levels.

Average MSR servicing portfolio		$	217,692,169	$	177,161,626

Loan servicing fees relate to our MSRs which are primarily related to servicing we provide for loans included in Agency securitizations. These fees are contractually established at an annualized percentage of the UPB of the loans serviced and we collect these fees from borrower payments. Other loan servicing fees are comprised primarily of borrower-contracted fees such as late charges, reconveyance fees and fees charged to correspondent lenders for loans repaid by the borrower shortly after purchase.

The change in contractually-specified fees for the quarter ended March 31, 2022, as compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2021, is due primarily to increased servicing fees resulting from the growth in our loan servicing portfolio. The changes in other loan servicing fees for the same comparative period is due primarily to a decrease in the volume of fees charged to correspondent lenders for loans repaid shortly after purchase as the result of the significant volume of refinancing activity experienced in the first part of 2021.

We have elected to carry our servicing assets 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 inputs used to estimate the fair value of such items. We endeavor to moderate the effects of changes in fair value primarily by entering into derivatives transactions.

Changes in fair value of MSRs and hedging results are summarized below:

		Quarter ended March 31,
		2022			2021
	(in thousands)
Change in fair value of MSRs
Realization of cash flows		$	(88,919	)	$	(59,385	)

		$	148,179		$	(82,487	)
Average balance of MSRs		$	3,158,711		$	2,114,176

Changes in realization of cash flows are influenced by changes in the level of servicing assets and liabilities and changes in estimates of remaining cash flows to be realized. During the quarter ended March 31, 2022, realization of cash flows increased primarily due to the significant growth of our investment in MSRs as compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2021.

Changes in fair value due to changes in valuation inputs used in our valuation model during the quarter ended March 31, 2022 reflect the effects of expectations for slower future prepayments of the underlying loans as a result of increasing interest rates during the quarter ended March 31, 2022, as compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2021.

Hedging results reflect valuation losses attributable to the effects of interest rate increases on the fair value of the hedging instruments during the quarters ended March 31, 2022 and 2021. The loss from hedging activities decreased during the quarter ended March 31, 2022 compared to the same period in 2021 primarily due to the higher hedging cost as a result of market volatility during the quarter ended March 31, 2021.

The decrease in loan servicing fees from PFSI reflects the increase in refinancing activity in our MSR portfolio during the quarter ended March 31, 2022, as compared to 2021. We have an agreement with PFSI that requires that when PFSI refinances a loan for which we held the MSRs, we receive a recapture fee. The MSR recapture agreement is summarized in Note 4 ‒ Transactions with Related Parties – Operating Activities to the consolidated financial statements included in this Report.

The decrease in net gains on investments for the quarter ended March 31, 2022, as compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2021, was caused primarily by increased losses from our investments in CRT arrangements and MBS.

Mortgage-Backed Securities

During the quarter ended March 31, 2022, we recognized net valuation losses of $186.5 million, as compared to $71.1 million for the same period in 2021. The losses recognized reflect more significant increases in interest rates during the quarter ended March 31, 2022 as compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2021.

Loans at fair value – Held in VIEs and Asset-Backed Financings at Fair Value

Loans at fair value held in VIEs and Asset-backed financings at fair value recorded a net loss of $7.4 million during the quarter ended March 31, 2022, as compared to a net loss of $1.4 million during the quarter ended March 31, 2021. The net loss during the quarter ended March 31, 2022 reflects the effect of increasing interest rates during the quarter ended March 31, 2022.

The performance of our investments in CRT arrangements during the quarter ended March 31, 2022 reflects credit spread widening (an increase in the interest rate demanded by investors for instruments over those that are considered “risk free”) for CRT securities in the credit markets. This contrasts with CRT investments’ gains during the quarter ended March 31, 2021, which reflects a decrease in credit spread as the credit markets continued to recover from the dislocation experienced during the first quarter of 2020 as a result of the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Non-cash elements of gain on sale of loans

Interest Rate Lock Commitments

Our net gain on sale of loans includes our estimates of gains or losses we expect to realize upon the sale of mortgage loans we have committed to purchase but have not yet purchased or sold. Therefore, we recognize a substantial portion of our net gain on sale before we purchase the loans. This gain is reflected on our balance sheet as IRLC derivative assets and liabilities. We adjust the fair value of our IRLCs as the loan acquisition process progresses until we complete the acquisition or the commitment is canceled. Such adjustments are included in our ~~gain~~gains on sale of ~~loans.~~loans acquired for sale. The fair value of our IRLCs become part of the carrying value of our loans when we complete the purchase of the loans. The methods and key inputs we use to measure the fair value of IRLCs are summarized in Note 7 – Fair value – Valuation Techniques and Inputs to the consolidated financial statements included in this Report.

The MSRs and liability 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 756% of our gain on sale of loans at fair value for the quarter ended March 31, 2021 as compared to 511% for the quarter ended March 31, 2020.~~ These estimates change as circumstances change, and changes in these estimates are recognized in our results of operations in subsequent periods. Subsequent changes in the fair value of our MSRs significantly affect our results of operations. ~~During the time we were selling loans into CRT arrangements we recognized the fair value of our commitment~~

This fair value represents the difference between the expected fair value of the CRT securities we committed to purchase and their contractual purchase price. How we measure and update ~~our~~the measurements of our ~~firm commitment to purchase CRT securities and~~ MSRs isare detailed in Note 7 – Fair value – Valuation Techniques and Inputs to the consolidated financial statements included in this ~~Quarterly~~ Report.

Liability for Losses Under Representations and Warranties

We recognize a liability for losses we expect to incur relating to the representations and warranties we provide to purchasers in our loan sales transactions. The representations and warranties require adherence to purchaser and insurer origination and underwriting guidelines, including but not limited to the validity of the lien securing the loan, property eligibility, borrower credit, income and asset requirements, and compliance with applicable federal, state and local law.

We recorded a provision for losses relating to representations and warranties relating to current loan sales of ~~$8.5~~$1.3 million and ~~$1.0~~$8.5 million for the quarters ended March 31, ~~2021~~2022 and ~~2020,~~2021, respectively. The ~~increase~~decrease in the provision relating to current loan sales reflects the ~~increase on~~decrease of our loan sales ~~volume as well as fewer loans being subject to credit risk transfer arrangements.~~volume.

In the event of a breach of our representations and warranties, we may be required to either repurchase the loans with the identified defects or indemnify the investor or insurer against credit losses attributable to the loans with indemnified defects. In such cases, we bear any subsequent credit loss on the loans. Our credit loss may be reduced by any recourse we have to correspondent sellers that, in turn, had sold such loans to us and breached similar or other representations and warranties. In such event, we have the right to seek a recovery of those repurchase losses from that correspondent seller.

Following is a summary of the indemnification and repurchase activity of the loans subject to representations and warranties:

Liability for representations and warranties	$	28,967	$	7,300	$	40,225		$	28,967

The losses on representations and warranties we have recorded to date have been moderated by our ability to recover most of the losses inherent in the repurchased loans from the correspondent sellers. As the outstanding balance of loans we purchase and sell subject to representations and warranties increases, as the loans sold season, as our investors’ and guarantors’ loss mitigation strategies change and as our correspondent sellers’ ability and willingness to repurchase loans change, we expect that the level of repurchase activity and associated losses may increase.

The method we use to estimate the liability for representations and warranties is a function of our estimates of future defaults, loan repurchase rates, severity of loss in the event of default and the probability of reimbursement by the correspondent loan seller. We establish a liability at the time loans are sold and review our liability estimate on a periodic basis.

The amount of the liability for representations and warranties is difficult to estimate and requires considerable judgment. The level of loan repurchase losses is dependent on economic factors, investor loss mitigation strategies, our ability to recover any losses inherent in the repurchased loan from the correspondent seller and other external conditions that change over the lives of the underlying loans. We may be required to incur losses related to such representations and warranties for several periods after the loans are sold or liquidated.

We record adjustments to our liability for losses on representations and warranties as economic fundamentals change, as investor and Agency evaluations of their loss mitigation strategies (including claims under representations and warranties) change and as economic conditions affect our correspondent sellers’ ability or willingness to fulfill their recourse obligations to us. Such adjustments may be material to our financial position and ~~income~~results of operations in future periods.

Adjustments to our liability for representations and warranties are included as a component of our Net gains on loans acquired for sale at fair value. We recorded a ~~$1.4~~$1.2 million reduction in liability for representations and warranties during the quarter ended March 31, ~~2021~~2022 due to the effects of certain loans reaching specified performance histories identified by the Agencies as sufficient to limit repurchase claims relating to such loans.

Net Loan ~~Origination~~Servicing Fees

Our net loan servicing fee income has two primary components: fees earned for servicing the loans and the effects of MSR valuation changes, net of hedging results, as summarized below:

		Quarter ended March 31,
		2022		2021
	(in thousands)
Loan servicing fees		$	155,999	$	132,532
Effect of MSRs and hedging results			148,179		(82,487	)
Net loan servicing fees		$	304,178	$	50,045

Following is a summary of our loan servicing fees:

		Quarter ended March 31,
		2022		2021
	(in thousands)
Contractually-specified servicing fees		$	146,885	$	116,287
Ancillary and other fees:

Other			8,502		15,833
			9,114		16,245
		$	155,999	$	132,532
Average MSR servicing portfolio		$	217,692,169	$	177,161,626

Loan ~~origination~~servicing fees ~~represent fees we charge correspondent sellers relating~~relate to our MSRs which are primarily related to servicing we provide for loans included in Agency securitizations. These fees are contractually established at an annualized percentage of the UPB of the loans serviced and we collect these fees from borrower payments. Other loan servicing fees are comprised primarily of borrower-contracted fees such as late charges, reconveyance fees and fees charged to correspondent lenders for loans repaid by the borrower shortly after purchase.

The change in contractually-specified fees for the quarter ended March 31, 2022, as compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2021, is due primarily to increased servicing fees resulting from the growth in our loan servicing portfolio. The changes in other loan servicing fees for the same comparative period is due primarily to a decrease in the volume of fees charged to correspondent lenders for loans repaid shortly after purchase as the result of ~~loans from those sellers. The increase~~the significant volume of refinancing activity experienced in the first part of 2021.

Changes in fair value of MSRs and hedging results are summarized below:

		Quarter ended March 31,
		2022			2021
	(in thousands)
Change in fair value of MSRs
Realization of cash flows		$	(88,919	)	$	(59,385	)
Changes in valuation inputs used in valuation model			392,640			337,667

		$	148,179		$	(82,487	)
Average balance of MSRs		$	3,158,711		$	2,114,176

Changes in fair value due to changes in valuation inputs used in our valuation model during the quarter ended March 31, ~~2021,~~2022 reflect the effects of expectations for slower future prepayments of the underlying loans as a result of increasing interest rates during the quarter ended March 31, 2022, as compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2021.

Hedging results reflect valuation losses attributable to the effects of interest rate increases on the fair value of the hedging instruments during the quarters ended March 31, 2022 and 2021. The loss from hedging activities decreased during the quarter ended March 31, 2022 compared to the same period in ~~2020,~~2021 primarily due to the higher hedging cost as a result of market volatility during the quarter ended March 31, 2021.

The decrease in loan servicing fees from PFSI reflects anthe increase in refinancing activity in our ~~purchases of loans~~MSR portfolio during the quarter ended March 31, 2022, as compared to 2021. We have an agreement with ~~delivery fees.~~

Non-cash elements of gain on sale of loans

Interest Rate Lock Commitments

Our net gain on sale of loans includes our estimates of gains or losses we expect to realize upon the sale of mortgage loans we have committed to purchase but have not yet purchased or sold. Therefore, we recognize a substantial portion of our net gain on sale before we purchase the loans. This gain is reflected on our balance sheet as IRLC derivative assets and liabilities. We adjust the fair value of our IRLCs as the loan acquisition process progresses until we complete the acquisition or the commitment is canceled. Such adjustments are included in our gains on sale of loans acquired for sale. The fair value of our IRLCs become part of the carrying value of our loans when we complete the purchase of the loans. The methods and key inputs we use to measure the fair value of IRLCs are summarized in Note 7 – Fair value – Valuation Techniques and Inputs to the consolidated financial statements included in this Report.

The MSRs and liability 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 change as circumstances change, and changes in these estimates are recognized in our results of operations in subsequent periods. Subsequent changes in the fair value of our MSRs significantly affect our results of operations.

Mortgage Servicing Rights

Our methods to measure and update the measurements of our MSRs are detailed in Note 7 – Fair value – Valuation Techniques and Inputs to the consolidated financial statements included in this Report.

Liability for Losses Under Representations and Warranties

We recorded a provision for losses relating to representations and warranties relating to current loan sales of $1.3 million and $8.5 million for the quarters ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The decrease in the provision relating to current loan sales reflects the decrease of our loan sales volume.

Following is a summary of the indemnification and repurchase activity of the loans subject to representations and warranties:

	Quarter ended March 31,
	2022			2021
	(in thousands)
Indemnification activity unpaid principal balance ("UPB"):

Loans subject to representations and warranties	$	217,466,262		$	177,595,762
Liability for representations and warranties	$	40,225		$	28,967

Adjustments to our liability for representations and warranties are included as a component of our Net gains on loans acquired for sale at fair value. We recorded a $1.2 million reduction in liability for representations and warranties during the quarter ended March 31, 2022 due to the effects of certain loans reaching specified performance histories identified by the Agencies as sufficient to limit repurchase claims relating to such loans.

Net Loan Servicing Fees

Our ~~correspondent production activity~~net loan servicing fee income has two primary components: fees earned for servicing the loans and the effects of MSR valuation changes, net of hedging results, as summarized below:

		$	155,999	$	132,532
Average MSR servicing portfolio		$	217,692,169	$	177,161,626

Loan servicing fees relate to our MSRs which are primarily related to servicing we ~~sell~~provide for loans ~~we generally enter into a contract to service those~~included in Agency securitizations. These fees are contractually established at an annualized percentage of the UPB of the loans serviced and we ~~recognize~~collect these fees from borrower payments. Other loan servicing fees are comprised primarily of borrower-contracted fees such as late charges, reconveyance fees and fees charged to correspondent lenders for loans repaid by the borrower shortly after purchase.

We have elected to carry our servicing assets 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 inputs used to estimate the fair value of such ~~contracts~~items. We endeavor to moderate the effects of changes in fair value primarily by entering into derivatives transactions.

Changes in ~~exchange~~fair value due to changes in valuation inputs used in our valuation model during the quarter ended March 31, 2022 reflect the effects of expectations for ~~fees~~slower future prepayments of the underlying loans as a result of increasing interest rates during the quarter ended March 31, 2022, as compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2021.

Hedging results reflect valuation losses attributable to the effects of interest rate increases on the fair value of the hedging instruments during the quarters ended March 31, 2022 and 2021. The loss from hedging activities decreased during the ~~right~~quarter ended March 31, 2022 compared to ~~other compensation.~~the same period in 2021 primarily due to the higher hedging cost as a result of market volatility during the quarter ended March 31, 2021.

The servicing functions, which are performed on our behalf by PLS, typically include, among other responsibilities, collecting and remitting loan payments; responding to borrower inquiries; accounting for the loan; holding and remitting custodial (impound) funds for payment of property taxes and insurance premiums; counseling delinquent mortgagors; and supervising foreclosures and property dispositions.

~~Net~~decrease in loan servicing fees ~~are~~from PFSI reflects the increase in refinancing activity in our MSR portfolio during the quarter ended March 31, 2022, as compared to 2021. We have an agreement with PFSI that requires that when PFSI refinances a loan for which we held the MSRs, we receive a recapture fee. The MSR recapture agreement is summarized ~~below:~~in Note 4 ‒ Transactions with Related Parties – Operating Activities to the consolidated financial statements included in this Report.

The performance of our ~~servicing asset~~investments in CRT arrangements during the quarter ended March 31, 2022 reflects credit spread widening (an increase in the interest rate demanded by investors for instruments over those that are considered “risk free”) for CRT securities in the credit markets. This contrasts with CRT investments’ gains during the quarter ended March 31, 2021, which reflects a decrease in credit spread as ~~compared~~the credit markets continued to recover from the dislocation experienced during the first quarter of 2020 as a ~~loss~~result of the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Non-cash elements of gain on sale of loans

Interest Rate Lock Commitments

Our net gain on sale of loans includes our estimates of gains or losses we expect to realize upon the sale of mortgage loans we have committed to purchase but have not yet purchased or sold. Therefore, we recognize a substantial portion of our net gain on sale before we purchase the loans. This ~~improvement was more-than offset~~gain is reflected on our balance sheet as IRLC derivative assets and liabilities. We adjust the fair value of our IRLCs as the loan acquisition process progresses until we complete the acquisition or the commitment is canceled. Such adjustments are included in our gains on sale of loans acquired for sale. The fair value of our IRLCs become part of the carrying value of our loans when we complete the purchase of the loans. The methods and key inputs we use to measure the fair value of IRLCs are summarized in Note 7 – Fair value – Valuation Techniques and Inputs to the consolidated financial statements included in this Report.

The MSRs and liability 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 change as circumstances change, and changes in these estimates are recognized in our results of operations in subsequent periods. Subsequent changes in the fair value of our MSRs significantly affect our results of operations.

Mortgage Servicing Rights

Liability for Losses Under Representations and Warranties

In the event of a breach of our representations and warranties, we may be required to either repurchase the loans with the identified defects or indemnify the investor or insurer against credit losses attributable to the loans with indemnified defects. In such cases, we bear any subsequent credit loss on the loans. Our credit loss may be reduced by ~~an increase~~any recourse we have to correspondent sellers that, in ~~hedging losses.~~turn, had sold such loans to us and breached similar or other representations and warranties. In such event, we have the right to seek a recovery of those repurchase losses from that correspondent seller.

The decrease in net interest ~~income~~expense during the quarter ended March 31, ~~2021,~~2022, as compared to the same period in ~~2020,~~2021, is due to:

•

~~A decrease~~An increase in ~~earnings from placement fees relating to custodial funds managed for borrowers and investors and deposits securing CRT arrangements which reflect~~ the ~~effect of decreasing interest rates~~yields we earn on our investments in MBS and loans acquired for sale arising from fair value decreases and our acquisition of higher coupon Agency pass through securities and subordinate credit securities that was compounded by a decrease in the cost of repurchase agreements that finance these ~~assets.~~investments and a portion of our investments in CRT Agreements, owing to a change in the mix of assets financed under repurchase agreements.

Loan origination

Loan origination expenses decreased $6.5 million, or 69%, during the quarter ended March 31, 2022, as compared to the same period in ~~2020, is due to the decrease in base management fees. The decrease in base management fees reflects the decrease during~~ 2021, as compared to 2020, in the adjusted average shareholders’ equity on which our base management fees are based. We did not recognize performance incentive fees for the quarter ended March 31, 2021 due to the effect of the losses we incurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2020 on our performance compared to the high watermark, which is required to be exceeded to earn quarterly performance incentive fees.

~~Loan origination~~

~~Loan collection and liquidation~~

Loan collection and liquidation expenses increased $3.1 million during the quarter ended March 31, 2021, as compared to the same period in 2020, due to borrower assistance expenses we incurred relating to loans in our CRT reference pools. We incurred this expense to assist certain borrowers in mitigating loan delinquencies they incurred as a result of dislocations arising from the COVID-19 pandemic as an alternative to incurring losses in the CRT arrangements.

~~Compensation~~

Compensation expense increased $1.7 million during the quarter ended March 31, 2021, as compared to 2020, primarily due to increased share-based compensation expense, reflecting the increase in expected future vestings of equity awards as a result of our projected earnings performance achieving the targets included in the outstanding performance-based awards.

Income Taxes

We have elected to treat ~~PMC~~PennyMac Corp. (“PMC”) as a taxable REIT subsidiary (“TRS”). Income from a TRS is only included as a component of REIT taxable income to the extent that the TRS makes dividend distributions of income to us. A TRS is subject to corporate federal and state income tax. Accordingly, a provision for income taxes for PMC is included in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

The Company’s effective tax rate was ~~21.3%~~205.9% with consolidated pretax income of ~~$91~~$18.1 million for the quarter ended March 31, ~~2021.~~2022. The Company’s taxable REIT subsidiary (“TRS”) recognized a tax expense of $37.9 million on pretax income of $272.8 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2022. The TRS income was primarily due to fair market increases in MSR values. For the same period in 2021, the TRS recognized tax expense of $19.4 million on pretax income of $88.1 million, while the Company’s reported consolidated pretax income for the quarter ended March 31, 2020. For the same period in 2020, the TRS recognized tax expense of $10.1 million on pretax loss of $21.8 million, while the Company’s reported consolidated pretax loss for the quarter ended March 31, 20202021 was ~~$584.4~~$91.0 million. The primary difference between the Company’s effective tax rate and the statutory tax rate is generally attributable to nontaxable REIT income resulting from the dividends paid deduction.

The Company assesses the available positive and negative evidence to estimate whether sufficient future taxable income will be generated to permit use of the existing deferred tax assets. On the basis of this evaluation, as of March 31, ~~2021,~~2022, the valuation allowance was ~~reduced~~decreased to $0$6.8 million from the ~~$110,000~~$34.1 million valuation allowance recorded at December 31, ~~2020~~2021 as the result of ~~positive~~a GAAP income at the TRS for the quarter ended March 31, ~~2021.~~2022. The amount of ~~the~~ deferred tax ~~asset~~assets considered realizable could be adjusted in future periods based on future income.

The CARES Act, passed in March 2020, introduced a number of tax law changes which are generally taxpayer favorable and in December 2020, the Taxpayer Certainty and Disaster Tax Relief Act was signed into law. No material changes in our effective income tax rates resulted from either Act. While the CARES Act provides for carry back of losses from 2018, 2019 and 2020, the TRS does not have taxable income from prior years to which the losses could be carried back.

In general, cash dividends declared by the Company will be considered ordinary income to the shareholders for income tax purposes. Some portion of the dividends may be characterized as capital gain distributions or a return of capital. For tax years beginning after December 31, 2017, the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act ~~(the “Tax Act”)~~ (subject to certain limitations) provides a 20% deduction from taxable income for ordinary REIT dividends.

~~Balance Sheet Analysis~~Correspondent Production

~~Following is a summary~~Our correspondent production activities involve the acquisition and sale of ~~key balance sheet items~~newly originated prime credit quality residential loans. Correspondent production serves as the source of our investments in MSRs, private label non-Agency securitizations, and, through 2020, CRT arrangements.

Interest Rate Sensitive Investments

Our interest rate sensitive investments include:

•

Credit Sensitive Investments

CRT Arrangements

At present, we are no longer creating new CRT investments as the Federal Housing Finance Agency (“FHFA”) instructed the Federal National Mortgage Association (“Fannie Mae”) and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“Freddie Mac”) to gradually wind down new front-end lender risk share transactions such as CRT investments as of the ~~dates presented:~~end of 2020. During the quarter ended March 31, 2022, we recognized investment losses of approximately $35.4 million relating to our holdings of CRT securities. We held net CRT-related investments (comprised of deposits securing CRT arrangements, CRT derivatives, CRT strips and interest-only security payable) totaling approximately $1.4 billion at March 31, 2022.

Securities Backed by Loans Secured by Investment Properties

Beginning in the quarter ended June 30, 2021, the Company purchased or retained approximately $94.6 million of subordinate MBS backed by loans secured by investment properties sourced from the Company’s conventional correspondent production activities. The subordinate MBS provide us with a higher yield than senior securities. However, we retain credit risk in the subordinate MBS since they are the first securities to absorb credit losses relating to the underlying loans.

Taxation

~~Total~~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 evaluate our deferred tax assets ~~increased by approximately $1.0 billion, or 9%,~~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 evaluation considers, among other factors, taxable loss carryback availability, expectations of sufficient future taxable income, trends in earnings, existence of taxable income in recent years, the future reversal of temporary differences, and available tax planning strategies that could be implemented, if required. The ultimate realization of our deferred tax assets depends primarily on our ability to generate future taxable income during the ~~period from December 31, 2020 through March 31, 2021, primarily due~~periods in which the related deferred tax assets become deductible.

Non-Cash Investment Income

A substantial portion of our net investment income is comprised of non-cash items, including fair value adjustments, recognition of the fair value of assets created and liabilities incurred in loan sale transactions and the capitalization and amortization of certain assets and liabilities. Because we have elected, or are required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”), to ~~a $1.1 billion increase in~~record certain of our financial assets (comprised of MBS, loans acquired for sale at fair value, loans at fair value and ESS), our derivatives and CRT strips, our MSRs, and our asset-backed financings and interest-only security payable at fair value, a ~~$686.0~~substantial portion of the income or loss we record with respect to such assets and liabilities results from non-cash changes in fair value.

The amounts of non-cash investment (loss) income items included in net investment income are as follows:

Due to significant inflationary pressures, the U.S. Federal Reserve raised the Federal Funds rate in the first quarter of 2022 and is expected to continue to raise interest rates through the year as well as reduce the federal government’s overall portfolio of Treasury and mortgage-backed securities. These resulting mortgage interest rate increases are expected to drive a decline in the size of the mortgage origination market from an estimated $4.4 trillion in 2021 to a current forecast range from $2.6 trillion to $3.1 trillion for 2022 according to leading economists. These lower overall projected mortgage transaction volumes and higher interest rates are expected to drive a decrease in our mortgage production activities and increase competition in the mortgage production business year over year, while also leading to declines in prepayment speeds in our mortgage servicing portfolio from the elevated levels experienced in 2021.

Our results of operations decreased by $90.7 million ~~increase~~during the quarter ended March 31, 2022, as compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2021, reflecting the effect of declines in ~~MSRs,~~CRT-related investments valuation, gains on loans held for sale and loan origination fees, partially offset by ~~a $ 297.4 million~~the improved fair value performance of our MSR investments. The decrease in ~~MBS.~~pretax results is summarized below:

•

A $189.7 million decrease in net gains on our CRT arrangements as credit spreads widened due to macroeconomic uncertainty as compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2021, which reflected the continuing recovery during the prior period from the market disruption caused by the COVID-19 pandemic on our investments in CRT arrangements.

•

An increase in net servicing fees of $254.1 million caused by positive fair value changes in our investment in MSRs and hedging results and a $115.4 million decrease in gains on MBS, due to sharply increasing interest rates, as well as an $11.2 million decrease in net interest expense in our interest rate sensitive strategies segment.

•

Decreases in both production volume and in our gain on sale margins during the quarter ended March 31, 2022, reflecting the effect of increasing interest rates on loan demand in our correspondent lending segment.

Non-cash elements of gain on sale of loans

Interest Rate Lock Commitments

Our net gain on sale of loans includes our estimates of gains or losses we expect to realize upon the sale of mortgage loans we have committed to purchase but have not yet purchased or sold. Therefore, we recognize a substantial portion of our net gain on sale before we purchase the loans. This gain is reflected on our balance sheet as IRLC derivative assets and liabilities. We adjust the fair value of our IRLCs as the loan acquisition process progresses until we complete the acquisition or the commitment is canceled. Such adjustments are included in our gains on sale of loans acquired for sale. The fair value of our IRLCs become part of the carrying value of our loans when we complete the purchase of the loans. The methods and key inputs we use to measure the fair value of IRLCs are summarized in Note 7 – Fair value – Valuation Techniques and Inputs to the consolidated financial statements included in this Report.

The MSRs and liability 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 change as circumstances change, and changes in these estimates are recognized in our results of operations in subsequent periods. Subsequent changes in the fair value of our MSRs significantly affect our results of operations.

Decrease in net interest expense		$	15,756		$	10,512		$	26,268

The decrease in net interest expense during the quarter ended March 31, 2022, as compared to the same period in 2021, is due to:

•

A decrease in the interest shortfall on repayments of loans serviced for the Agency securitizations, reflecting decreased prepayment activity in our MSR portfolio as a result of increasing interest rates reducing the incentive of borrowers to refinance their loans.

•

An increase in the yields we earn on our investments in MBS and loans acquired for sale arising from fair value decreases and our acquisition of higher coupon Agency pass through securities and subordinate credit securities that was compounded by a decrease in the cost of repurchase agreements that finance these investments and a portion of our investments in CRT Agreements, owing to a change in the mix of assets financed under repurchase agreements.

Expenses

Our expenses are summarized below:

		Quarter ended March 31,

The decrease for the quarter ended March 31, 2022, as compared to the same period in 2021, is primarily due to reduced fees relating to fulfillment activities performed by PFSI on our behalf.

Loan Servicing Fees

Loan servicing fees payable to PLS are summarized below:

	Quarter ended March 31,
	2022		2021
	(in thousands)
Loan servicing fees:

Loans at fair value	$	1,559,939	$	136,927
Average MSR portfolio UPB	$	217,692,169	$	177,161,626

Loan servicing fees increased by $2.0 million during the quarter ended March 31, 2022, as compared to the same period in 2021. We incur loan servicing fees primarily in support of our MSR portfolio. The increase in loan servicing fees is due to growth in our portfolio of MSRs.

Loan Fulfillment Fees

Loan fulfillment fees represent fees we pay to PLS for the services it performs on our behalf in connection with our acquisition, packaging and sale of loans. Fulfillment fees decreased $44.1 million during the quarter ended March 31, 2022, compared to the same period in 2021. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in loan production volume.

Management Fees

Management fees payable to PCM are summarized below:

	Quarter ended March 31,
	2022		2021
	(in thousands)
Base	$	8,117	$	8,449
Performance incentive		—		—
	$	8,117	$	8,449
Average shareholders' equity amounts used to calculate base management fee expense	$	2,212,304	$	2,310,261

Management fees decreased by $332,000 during the quarter ended March 31, 2022, as compared to the same period in 2021. This decrease reflects the decrease in our average shareholders’ equity during the quarter ended March 31, 2022 as compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2021.

Loan origination

Loan origination expenses decreased $6.5 million, or 69%, during the quarter ended March 31, 2022, as compared to the same period in 2021, primarily reflecting a decrease in our loan originations produced through our correspondent production activities.

Income Taxes

We have elected to treat PennyMac Corp. (“PMC”) as a taxable REIT subsidiary (“TRS”). Income from a TRS is only included as a component of REIT taxable income to the extent that the TRS makes dividend distributions of income to us. A TRS is subject to corporate federal and state income tax. Accordingly, a provision for income taxes for PMC is included in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

The Company’s effective tax rate was 205.9% with consolidated pretax income of $18.1 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2022. The Company’s taxable REIT subsidiary (“TRS”) recognized a tax expense of $37.9 million on pretax income of $272.8 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2022. The TRS income was primarily due to fair market increases in MSR values. For the same period in 2021, the TRS recognized tax expense of $19.4 million on pretax income of $88.1 million, while the Company’s reported consolidated pretax income for the quarter ended March 31, 2021 was $91.0 million. The primary difference between the Company’s effective tax rate and the statutory tax rate is generally attributable to nontaxable REIT income resulting from the dividends paid deduction.

The Company assesses the available positive and negative evidence to estimate whether sufficient future taxable income will be generated to permit use of the existing deferred tax assets. On the basis of this evaluation, as of March 31, 2022, the valuation allowance was decreased to $6.8 million from the $34.1 million valuation allowance recorded at December 31, 2021 as the result of a GAAP income at the TRS for the quarter ended March 31, 2022. The amount of deferred tax assets considered realizable could be adjusted in future periods based on future income.

Credit Sensitive Investments

CRT Arrangements

At present, we are no longer creating new CRT investments as the Federal Housing Finance Agency (“FHFA”) instructed the Federal National Mortgage Association (“Fannie Mae”) and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“Freddie Mac”) to gradually wind down new front-end lender risk share transactions such as CRT investments as of the end of 2020. During the quarter ended March 31, 2022, we recognized investment losses of approximately $35.4 million relating to our holdings of CRT securities. We held net CRT-related investments (comprised of deposits securing CRT arrangements, CRT derivatives, CRT strips and interest-only security payable) totaling approximately $1.4 billion at March 31, 2022.

Non-Cash Investment Income

A substantial portion of our net investment income is comprised of non-cash items, including fair value adjustments, recognition of the fair value of assets created and liabilities incurred in loan sale transactions and the capitalization and amortization of certain assets and liabilities. Because we have elected, or are required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”), to record certain of our financial assets (comprised of MBS, loans acquired for sale at fair value, loans at fair value and ESS), our derivatives and CRT strips, our MSRs, and our asset-backed financings and interest-only security payable at fair value, a substantial portion of the income or loss we record with respect to such assets and liabilities results from non-cash changes in fair value.

The amounts of non-cash investment (loss) income items included in net investment income are as follows:

We receive or pay cash relating to:

•

Our investment in mortgage-backed securities through monthly principal and interest payments from the issuer of such securities or from the sale of the investment;

•

ESS investments through a portion of the monthly interest payments collected on the loans in the ESS reference pool or from the sale of investment;

•

Our liability for representations and warranties when we repurchase loans or settle loss claims from investors; and

•

MSRs in the form of loan servicing fees and placement fees on the deposits we manage on behalf of the borrowers and investors in the loans we service.

Non-cash elements of gain on sale of loans

Interest Rate Lock Commitments

Our net gain on sale of loans includes our estimates of gains or losses we expect to realize upon the sale of mortgage loans we have committed to purchase but have not yet purchased or sold. Therefore, we recognize a substantial portion of our net gain on sale before we purchase the loans. This gain is reflected on our balance sheet as IRLC derivative assets and liabilities. We adjust the fair value of our IRLCs as the loan acquisition process progresses until we complete the acquisition or the commitment is canceled. Such adjustments are included in our gains on sale of loans acquired for sale. The fair value of our IRLCs become part of the carrying value of our loans when we complete the purchase of the loans. The methods and key inputs we use to measure the fair value of IRLCs are summarized in Note 7 – Fair value – Valuation Techniques and Inputs to the consolidated financial statements included in this Report.

The MSRs and liability 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 change as circumstances change, and changes in these estimates are recognized in our results of operations in subsequent periods. Subsequent changes in the fair value of our MSRs significantly affect our results of operations.

Income Taxes

The Company assesses the available positive and negative evidence to estimate whether sufficient future taxable income will be generated to permit use of the existing deferred tax assets. On the basis of this evaluation, as of March 31, 2022, the valuation allowance was decreased to $6.8 million from the $34.1 million valuation allowance recorded at December 31, 2021 as the result of a GAAP income at the TRS for the quarter ended March 31, 2022. The amount of deferred tax assets considered realizable could be adjusted in future periods based on future income.

We continue to identify additional means of increasing our investment portfolio through cash flow from our business activities, existing investments, borrowings, and transactions that minimize current cash outlays. However, we expect that, over time, our ability to continue our investment portfolio growth will depend on our ability to raise additional equity capital.

Cash flows from loans acquired for sale primarily reflect changes in the level of production inventory from the beginning to end of the ~~quarters presented~~periods presented. Our inventory of loans held for sale decreased during the quarter ended March 31, 2022, as ~~well as cash flows relating~~compared to ~~related hedging activities.~~the same period in 2021.

Investing activities

Net cash used in our investing activities was $196.6 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2022, as compared to net cash provided by our investing activities ~~was~~of $930.9 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2021 ~~as compared~~, primarily due to ~~net~~purchases of our investments in MBS in excess of sales and repayments of such assets partially offset by repayments from our investments in CRT arrangements and decreases in margin deposits.

Financing activities

Net cash used in our ~~investing~~financing activities ~~of $604.0 million~~was $1.4 billion for the quarter ended March 31, ~~2020~~, ~~due primarily~~2022, as compared to ~~a shift in investment cash flows relating to our investment in MBS. During the quarter ended March 31, 2020, we made~~ net purchases of MBS totaling $1.0 billion; during the quarter ended March 31, 2021, we recorded net sales and repayments of MBS totaling $223.8 million. This shift was compounded by settlement of excess servicing spread payable from PFSI of $134.6 million.

~~Financing activities~~

~~Net~~ cash provided by our financing activities ~~was~~of $973.5 million for the quarter ended March 31, ~~2021, as compared to net cash used by our financing activities of $106.0 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2020.~~2021. This change reflects ~~the increased borrowings~~reduced financing requirements relating to ~~finance the growth in both our inventory of~~ loans acquired for ~~sale and MSRs.~~sale.

As discussed below in Liquidity and Capital Resources, our Manager continually evaluates and pursues additional sources of financing to provide us with future investing capacity. We do not raise equity or enter into borrowings for the purpose of financing the payment of dividends. We believe that ~~the cash flows from the liquidation of our investments, which include accumulated gains~~

~~recorded during the periods we hold those investments, along with~~ our cash earnings, are adequate to fund our operating expenses and dividend payment requirements. However, we manage our liquidity in the aggregate and are reinvesting our cash flows in new investments as well as using such cash to fund our dividend requirements.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our liquidity reflects our ability to meet our current obligations (including the purchase of loans from correspondent sellers, our operating expenses and, when applicable, retirement of, and margin calls relating to, our debt and derivatives positions), make investments as our Manager identifies them, pursue our share repurchase program and make distributions to our shareholders. We generally need to distribute at least 90% of our taxable income each year (subject to certain adjustments) to our shareholders to qualify as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code. This distribution requirement limits our ability to retain earnings and thereby replenish or increase capital to support our activities.

We expect our primary sources of liquidity to be cash flows from our investment portfolio, including cash earnings on our investments, cash flows from business activities, liquidation of existing investments and proceeds from borrowings and/or additional equity offerings. When we finance a particular asset, the amount borrowed is less than the asset’s fair value and we must provide the cash in the amount of such difference. Our ability to continue making investments is dependent on our ability to invest the cash representing such difference.

The impact of the ~~Pandemic~~COVID-19 pandemic on our operations, liquidity and capital resources remains uncertain and difficult to predict. For further discussion of this and other risks ~~described in~~applicable to us, see our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2020~~2021 under the heading “Risk Factors.”

Debt Financing

Our current debt financing strategy is to finance our assets where we believe such borrowing is prudent, appropriate and available. We make collateralized borrowings in the form of sales of assets under agreements to repurchase, loan participation purchase and sale agreements and notes payable, including secured term financing for our MSRs and our CRT arrangements which has allowed us to more closely match the term of our borrowings to the expected lives of the assets securing those borrowings.

Our ~~leverage ratio, defined as all borrowings divided by shareholders’ equity at the date presented, was 4.10 and 3.78 at March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.~~ debt financing is summarized below:

Sales of Assets Under Agreements to Repurchase

Our repurchase agreements represent the sales of assets together with agreements for us to buy back the assets at a later date. Following is a summary of the activities in our repurchase agreements financing:

		Quarter ended March 31,					Quarter ended March 31,
Assets sold under agreements to repurchase			2021		2020			2022		2021
	(in thousands)					(in thousands)
Average balance outstanding		$	5,971,290	$	6,302,900		$	4,999,896	$	5,971,290
Maximum daily balance outstanding		$	7,208,807	$	8,664,587		$	7,405,436	$	7,208,807
Ending balance		$	6,091,973	$	6,348,192		$	5,092,700	$	6,091,973

The difference between the maximum and average daily amounts outstanding is primarily due to timing of loan purchases and sales in our correspondent production business. The total facility size of our assets sold under agreements to repurchase was approximately ~~$9.8~~$12.0 billion at March 31, ~~2021.~~2022.

Because a significant portion of our current debt facilities consists of short-term borrowings, we expect to either renew these facilities in advance of maturity in order to ensure our ongoing liquidity and access to capital or otherwise allow ourselves sufficient time to replace any necessary financing.

As discussed above, all of our repurchase agreements, and mortgage loan participation purchase and sale agreements have short-term maturities:

•

The transactions relating to loans and REO under agreements to repurchase generally provide for terms of approximately one to two years;

•

The transactions relating to loans under mortgage loan participation purchase and sale agreements provide for terms of approximately one year; and

•

The transactions relating to assets under notes payable provide for terms ranging from two to five years.

Debt Covenants

Our debt financing agreements require us and certain of our subsidiaries to comply with various financial covenants. As of the filing of this Report, these financial covenants include the following:

•

a minimum of ~~$40~~$75 million in unrestricted cash and cash equivalents among the Company and/or our subsidiaries; a minimum of ~~$40~~$75 million in unrestricted cash and cash equivalents among our Operating Partnership and its consolidated subsidiaries; a minimum of $25 million in unrestricted cash and cash equivalents between PMC and ~~PMH;~~PennyMac Holdings, LLC (“PMH”); a minimum of $25 million in unrestricted cash and cash equivalents at PMC; and a minimum of $10 million in unrestricted cash and cash ~~equivalents;~~equivalents at PMH;

•

a minimum tangible net worth for the Company of $1.25 billion; a minimum tangible net worth for our Operating Partnership of $1.25 billion; a minimum tangible net worth for PMH of $250 million; and a minimum tangible net worth for PMC of $300 million;

•

a maximum ratio of total liabilities to tangible net worth of less than 10:1 for PMC and PMH and 7:1 for the Company and our Operating Partnership; and

•

at least two warehouse or repurchase facilities that finance amounts and assets similar to those being financed under our existing debt financing agreements.

Although these financial covenants limit the amount of indebtedness we may incur and impact our liquidity through minimum cash reserve requirements, we believe that these covenants currently provide us with sufficient flexibility to successfully operate our business and obtain the financing necessary to achieve that purpose.

PLS is also subject to various financial covenants, both as a borrower under its own financing arrangements and as our servicer under certain of our debt financing agreements. The most significant of these financial covenants currently include the following:

•

~~positive net income for at least one (1) of the previous two consecutive fiscal quarters;~~

•

a minimum in unrestricted cash and cash equivalents of ~~$40~~$100 million;

•

a minimum tangible net worth of $1.25 billion;

•

a maximum ratio of total liabilities to tangible net worth of 10:1; and

•

at least one other warehouse or repurchase facility that finances amounts and assets that are similar to those being financed under certain of our existing secured financing agreements.

Many of our debt financing agreements contain a condition precedent to obtaining additional funding that requires us to maintain positive net income for at least one (1) of the previous two consecutive quarters, or other similar measures. For the first quarter of 2022, we have obtained waivers of this requirement from all of the applicable lenders. We may be required to obtain additional waivers in the future if this condition precedent is not met.

Our debt financing agreements also contain margin call provisions that, upon notice from the applicable lender at its option, require us to transfer cash or, in some instances, additional assets in an amount sufficient to eliminate any margin deficit. A margin deficit will generally result from any decline in the market value (as determined by the applicable lender) of the assets subject to the related financing agreement, although in some instances we may agree with the lender upon certain thresholds (in dollar amounts or percentages based on the market value of the assets) that must be exceeded before a margin deficit will arise. Upon notice from the applicable lender, we will generally be required to satisfy the margin call on the day of such notice or within one business day thereafter, depending on the timing of the notice.

Regulatory Capital and Liquidity Requirements

In addition to the financial covenants imposed upon us and PLS under our debt financing agreements, we and/or PLS, as applicable, are also subject to liquidity and net worth requirements established by FHFA for Agency sellers/servicers and Ginnie Mae for single-family issuers. FHFA and Ginnie Mae have established minimum liquidity and net worth requirements for approved non-depository single-family sellers/servicers in the case of FHFA, and for approved single-family issuers in the case of Ginnie Mae, as summarized below:

•

A minimum net worth of a base of $2.5 million plus 25 basis points of UPB for total 1-4 unit residential loans serviced;

•

A tangible net worth/total assets ratio greater than or equal to 6%;

•

~~Effective June 30, 2020, FHFA~~A liquidity requirement is equal to 0.035% (3.5 basis points) of total Agency servicing UPB plus an incremental 200 basis points of the amount by which total nonperforming Agency servicing UPB (reduced by 70% of the UPB of nonperforming Agency loans that are in COVID-19 payment forbearance and were current when they entered such forbearance) exceeds 6% of the applicable Agency servicing UPB; allowable assets to satisfy liquidity requirement include cash and cash equivalents (unrestricted), certain investment-grade securities that are available for sale or held for trading including Agency mortgage-backed securities, obligations of Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac, and U.S. Treasury obligations, and unused and available portions of committed servicing advance lines;

•

In the case of PLS, liquidity equal to the greater of $1.0 million or 0.10% (10 basis points) of its outstanding Ginnie Mae single-family securities, which must be met with cash and cash equivalents; and

•

In the case of PLS, net worth equal to $2.5 million plus 0.35% (35 basis points) of its outstanding Ginnie Mae single-family obligations.

~~On January 31, 2020, FHFA proposed changes to the eligibility requirements:~~

•

~~A tangible net worth requirement of a base of $2.5 million plus 35 basis points of the UPB of loans serviced for Ginnie Mae and 25 basis points of the UPB of all other 1-4 unit loans serviced;~~

•

Liquidity equal to or exceeding four basis points multiplied by the aggregate UPB of mortgages serviced for Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac plus 10 basis points multiplied by the aggregate UPB of mortgages serviced for Ginnie Mae plus 300 basis points multiplied by the sum of nonperforming Agency Mortgage Servicing that exceeds 4% of the UPB of total Agency Mortgage Servicing; and

•

~~On June 15, 2020, FHFA announced that it will be re-proposing changes to these requirements.~~

On August 7, 2020, PMC entered into a master repurchase agreement with Credit Suisse First Boston Mortgage Capital LLC, and Credit Suisse AG, Cayman Islands Branch providing PMC with the ability to finance servicing advances made to support monthly principal and interest to mortgage-backed securities holders as well as other corporate and escrow advances related to servicing delinquent loans. The committed amount available to PMC under the master repurchase agreement is $300 million.

Our Manager continues to explore a variety of additional means of financing our ~~growth,~~business, including debt financing through bank warehouse lines of credit, repurchase agreements, term financing, securitization transactions and additional equity offerings. However, there can be no assurance as to how much additional financing capacity such efforts will produce, what form the financing will take or that such efforts will be successful.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements and Aggregate Contractual Obligations

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of March 31, ~~2021,~~2022, we have not entered into any off-balance sheet arrangements.

All debt financing arrangements that matured between March 31, ~~2021~~2022 and the date of this Report have been renewed, extended or replaced.

The amount at risk (the fair value of the assets pledged plus the related margin deposit, less the amount advanced by the counterparty and accrued interest) relating to our assets sold under agreements to repurchase is summarized by counterparty below as of March 31, ~~2021:~~2022:

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Market risk is the exposure to loss resulting from changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices, equity prices, real estate values and other market-based risks. The primary market risks that we are exposed to are real estate risk, credit risk, interest rate risk, prepayment risk, inflation risk and market value risk.

Our primary trading asset is our inventory of loans acquired for sale. We believe that such assets’ fair values respond primarily to changes in the market interest rates for comparable recently-originated loans. Our other market-risk assets are a substantial portion of our investments and are primarily comprised of MSRs, ESS, CRT arrangements and MBS. We believe that the fair values of MSRs, ESS and MBS also respond primarily to changes in the market interest rates for comparable loans or yields on MBS. Changes in interest rates are reflected in the prepayment speeds underlying these investments and in the pricing spread (an element of the discount rate) used in their valuation. We believe that the primary market risks to the fair values of our investment in CRT arrangements are changes in market credit spreads and the fair value of the real estate securing the loans underlying such arrangements.

The following sensitivity analyses are limited in that they were performed at a particular point in time; only contemplate the movements in the indicated variables; do not incorporate changes to other variables; are subject to the accuracy of various models and assumptions used; and do not incorporate other factors that would affect our overall financial performance in such scenarios, including operational adjustments made by management to account for changing circumstances. For these reasons, the following estimates should not be viewed as earnings forecasts.
