Third Quarter 2024 Results

WESTLAKE VILLAGE, Calif. – October 22, 2024 – PennyMac Mortgage Investment Trust (NYSE: PMT) today reported net income attributable to common shareholders of $31.0 million, or $0.36 per common share on a diluted basis for the third quarter of 2024, on net investment income of $80.9 million. PMT previously announced a cash dividend for the third quarter of 2024 of $0.40 per common share of beneficial interest, which was declared on September 19, 2024, and will be paid on October 25, 2024, to common shareholders of record as of October 11, 2024.

Third Quarter 2024 Highlights

Financial results:

• Net income attributable to common shareholders of $31.0 million; annualized return on average common equity of 9%¹

• Solid levels of income excluding market-driven fair value changes bolstered by fair value changes including associated tax benefits

• Book value per common share decreased slightly to $15.85 at September 30, 2024, from $15.89 at June 30, 2024

Other investment highlights:

• Investment activity driven by correspondent production volumes

• Conventional correspondent loan production volumes for PMT’s account totaled $5.9 billion in unpaid principal balance (UPB), up 167 percent from the prior quarter as PMT retained a higher percentage of total conventional loans acquired

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

• Resulted in the creation of $88 million in new mortgage servicing rights (MSRs), up from $41 million in the prior quarter

• Redeemed $305 million of MSR term notes priced at SOFR plus 419 basis points scheduled to mature in 2027 with proceeds from a recent MSR term note issuance priced at SOFR plus 275 basis points

• Issued $159 million of new, 4-year CRT term notes in August which refinanced $152 million of notes due to mature in 2025

“PMT’s third quarter financial results reflect solid levels of income excluding market driven value changes bolstered by fair value changes including associated tax benefits” said Chairman and CEO David Spector. “We increased the amount of conventional mortgage production retained this quarter, which drove strong results in the segment as well as the creation of nearly $90 million in new mortgage servicing rights investments. We also continue to focus on our balance sheet, replacing previously-issued MSR term notes with new term notes at a lower spread; to that end we also issued new, 4-year CRT term notes to refinance similar notes that were originally scheduled to mature in 2025.”

Mr. Spector continued, “PMT’s synergistic relationship with its manager and services provider, PFSI, has proven to be a competitive advantage, allowing for significant flexibility across different rate environments. Pennymac has become a top producer of mortgage loans with recent growth in originations of loan products that have strong demand from investors outside of the Agencies. Combined with our capital markets expertise and long-standing relationships with banks, asset managers and institutional investors, I believe PMT is well-positioned to participate meaningfully in private label securitizations and the creation of organic investments from its own production as the landscape evolves.”

Credit Sensitive Strategies Segment

The Credit Sensitive Strategies segment primarily includes results from PMT’s organically-created GSE CRT investments, opportunistic investments in other GSE CRT, investments in non-agency subordinate bonds from private-label securitizations of PMT’s production and legacy investments. Pretax income for the segment was $26.4 million on net investment income of $26.5 million, compared to pretax income of $15.7 million on net investment income of $15.8 million in the prior quarter.

Net gains on investments in the segment were $27.1 million, compared to $17.4 million in the prior quarter. These net gains include $20.8 million of gains on PMT’s organically-created GSE CRT investments, $5.7 million of gains on investments from non-agency subordinate bonds from PMT’s production and $0.6 million in gains on other acquired subordinate CRT mortgage-backed securities (MBS).

Net gains on PMT’s organically-created CRT investments for the quarter were $20.8 million, compared to $16.6 million in the prior quarter. These net gains include $6.6 million in valuation-related gains, up from $1.7 million in the prior quarter. Net gains on PMT’s organically-created CRT investments also included $15.0 million in realized gains and carry, compared to $15.1 million in the prior quarter. Realized losses during the quarter were $0.8 million.

Net interest expense for the segment was $0.5 million, compared to 1.3 million in the prior quarter. Interest income totaled $21.4 million, down slightly from the prior quarter, and interest expense totaled $21.9 million, down from $24.3 million in the prior quarter.

Interest Rate Sensitive Strategies Segment

The Interest Rate Sensitive Strategies segment includes results from investments in MSRs, Agency MBS, non-Agency senior MBS and interest rate hedges. Pretax income for the segment was $0.5 million on net investment income of $26.1 million, compared to a pretax income of $16.9 million on net investment income of $39.1 million in the prior quarter. The segment includes investments that typically have offsetting fair value exposures to changes in interest rates. For example, in a period with decreasing interest rates, MSRs are expected to decrease in fair value, whereas Agency pass-through and non-Agency senior MBS are expected to increase in fair value.

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

Net gains on investments for the segment were $119.6 million, which primarily consisted of gains on MBS due to lower interest rates.

Losses from net loan servicing fees were $85.1 million, compared to $96.5 million of net loan servicing fees in the prior quarter. Net loan servicing fees included contractually specified servicing fees of $162.6 million and $4.0 million in other fees, reduced by $100.6 million in realization of MSR cash flows, which was up slightly from the prior quarter. Net loan servicing fees also included $84.3 million in fair value declines on MSRs due to lower interest rates, $67.2 million in hedging declines and $0.4 million of MSR recapture income. PMT’s hedging activities are intended to manage its net exposure across all interest rate sensitive strategies, which include MSRs, MBS and related tax impacts.

Net loan servicing fees	$	(85,080	)	$	96,494		$	281,298

Net interest expense for the segment was $8.4 million versus $20.3 million in the prior quarter. Interest income totaled $128.5 million, up from $111.3 million in the prior quarter due to higher interest income on MBS and earnings on custodial balances due to higher average balances. Interest expense totaled $136.9 million, up from $131.6 million the prior quarter.

Segment expenses were $25.6 million, up from $22.2 million in the prior quarter.

Correspondent Production Segment

PMT acquires newly originated loans from correspondent sellers and typically sells or securitizes the loans, resulting in current-period income and additions to its investments in MSRs related to a portion of its production. PMT’s Correspondent Production segment generated pretax income of $13.2 million in the third quarter, up from $9.6 million in the prior quarter.

5

Through its correspondent production activities, PMT acquired a total of $25.8 billion in UPB of loans, up 15 percent from the prior quarter and 20 percent from the third quarter of 2023. Of total correspondent acquisitions, government-insured or guaranteed acquisitions totaled $11.8 billion, up 14 percent from the prior quarter, while conventional and jumbo acquisitions totaled $14.0 billion, up 15 percent from the prior quarter. $5.9 billion of conventional conforming volume was for PMT’s account, up 167 percent from the prior quarter due to PMT retaining a larger percentage of the total conventional correspondent production. The percentage of total conventional correspondent loan production retained by PMT is expected to be 15 to 25 percent in the fourth quarter in order to optimize PMT’s capital allocation. Interest rate lock commitments on conventional and jumbo loans for PMT’s account totaled $7.6 billion, up 183 percent from the prior quarter.

Segment revenues were $26.3 million and included net gains on loans acquired for sale of $20.1 million, other income of $6.7 million, which primarily consists of volume-based origination fees, and net interest expense of $0.4 million. Net gains on loans acquired for sale increased $7.9 million from the prior quarter, primarily due to higher volumes. Interest income was $23.9 million, up from $14.9 million in the prior quarter, and interest expense was $24.3 million, up from $15.0 million in the prior quarter, both due to higher volumes.

Segment expenses were $13.1 million, up from $5.0 million the prior quarter primarily due to increased fulfillment fees as a result of higher volumes for PMT’s account. The weighted average fulfillment fee rate in the third quarter was 19 basis points, down from 20 basis points in the prior quarter.

Corporate Segment

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

Segment revenues were $1.9 million, up slightly from the prior quarter. Management fees were $7.2 million, and other segment expenses were $8.4 million.

Taxes

PMT recorded a tax benefit of $14.9 million, driven primarily by fair value declines on MSRs and interest rate hedges held in PMT’s taxable subsidiary.
