FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

NMI Holdings, Inc. Reports Record First Quarter 2018 Financial Results

EMERYVILLE, CALIF., May 1, 2018 -- NMI Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: NMIH) today reported GAAP net income of $22.4 million, or $0.34 per diluted share, and adjusted net income of $22.0 million, or $0.34 per diluted share, for its first quarter ended March 31, 2018. Adjusted net income and adjusted net income per diluted share exclude a pre-tax non-cash gain of $0.4 million related to the change in fair value of the company’s warrant liability. This compares with a net loss of $1.8 million, or ($0.03) per diluted share, and adjusted net income of $14.0 million, or $0.22 per diluted share, after adjusting for the one-time non-cash expense primarily related to the re-measurement of the company’s net deferred tax asset as a result of tax reform and the change in fair value of the warrant liability, in the prior quarter. In the first quarter of 2017, the company reported net income of $5.5 million, or $0.09 per diluted share, and adjusted net income of $5.6 million, or $0.09 per diluted share, after adjusting for the change in fair value of the warrant liability. The non-GAAP financial measures adjusted net income and adjusted net income per share are presented to increase the comparability of financial results between periods. See "Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures" below.

Bradley Shuster, Chairman and CEO of National MI, said, "National MI delivered record first quarter financial results, including new insurance written of $6.5 billion, record net premiums earned of $54.9 million, record net income of $22.4 million, and record return-on-equity of 16.1%. We continued to build our portfolio of high-quality insurance-in-force at a rate that leads our industry. We also continued to make significant strides in customer development, activating 21 new customers in the first quarter and continuing to increase our volume with existing customers.”

• As of March 31, 2018, the company had primary insurance-in-force of $53.4 billion, up 10% from $48.5 billion at the prior quarter end and up 54% over $34.8 billion as of March 31, 2017.

• Net premiums earned for the quarter were $54.9 million, including $2.8 million attributable to cancellation of single premium policies, which compares with $50.1 million, including $4.2 million related to cancellations, in the prior quarter. Net premiums earned in the first quarter of 2018 were up 65% over net premiums earned of $33.2 million in the same quarter a year ago, which included $2.5 million related to cancellations.

• NIW mix was 84% monthly premium product, which compares with 83% in the prior quarter and 81% in the first quarter of 2017.

• During the quarter, the company completed the sale of 4.3 million shares of common stock, raising proceeds of $79.2 million, net of underwriting discounts, commissions and other direct offering expenses.

• At quarter-end, cash and investments were $826 million, including $123 million at the holding company, and book equity was $602 million, equal to $9.18 per share.

• At quarter-end, the company had total PMIERs available assets of $555 million, which compares with risk-based required assets under PMIERs of $522 million. Subsequent to the close of the quarter, the company contributed $70 million to National Mortgage Insurance Corporation, its primary mortgage insurance subsidiary.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We believe that use of the non-GAAP measures of adjusted pre-tax income, adjusted net income, adjusted net income per share and adjusted return-on-equity facilitate the evaluation of our fundamental financial performance, thereby providing relevant information to investors. These non-GAAP financial measures align with the way the company's business performance is evaluated by management. These measures are not recognized in accordance with GAAP and should not be viewed as alternatives to GAAP measures of performance. These measures have been established in order to increase transparency for the purposes of evaluating our fundamental operating trends and enabling more meaningful comparisons with our peers.

Adjusted pre-tax income is defined as GAAP income before tax, excluding the effects of the non-cash loss or gain related to the change in fair value of our warrant liability.

Adjusted net income is defined as GAAP net income (loss) excluding the after-tax impact of the aforementioned change in the fair value of our warrant liability and other discrete tax (benefits) expense which are infrequent and unusual non-operating items, such as the one-time non-cash charge due to a re-measurement of our net deferred tax assets in connection with the enactment of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the "Tax Act") in 2017. The amounts of adjustments to components of pre-tax income are tax effected using the applicable federal statutory tax rate for the respective periods.

Adjusted net income per diluted share is calculated in a manner consistent with the accounting standard regarding earnings per share by dividing (i) adjusted net income by (ii) diluted weighted average common shares outstanding, which reflects share dilution from non-vested restricted stock units and from warrants when dilutive.

Adjusted return-on-equity is calculated by dividing the adjusted income on an annualized basis by the average shareholders’ equity for the period.

Although adjusted pre-tax income and adjusted net income exclude certain items that have occurred in the past and are expected to occur in the future, the excluded items represent items that are: (1) not viewed as part of the operating performance of our primary activities; or (2) impacted by market, economic or regulatory factors and are not necessarily indicative of operating trends, or both. These adjustments, along with the reasons for their treatment, are described below. Trends in the profitability of our fundamental operating activities can be more clearly identified without the fluctuations of these adjustments. Other companies may calculate these measures differently. Therefore, their measures may not be comparable to those used by us.

EXHIBIT 99.1

(1) Change in fair value of warrant liability. Outstanding warrants at the end of each reporting period are revalued, and any change in fair value is reported in the statements of operations in the period in which the change occurred. The change in the fair value of our warrant liability can vary significantly across periods and is influenced principally by equity market and general economic factors which may not impact or reflect our current period operating results. Trends in our operating performance can be more clearly identified without the fluctuations of the change in fair value of our warrant liability.

(2) Infrequent or unusual non-operating items. Our income tax expense for 2017 reflects a one-time non-cash charge due to a re-measurement of our net deferred tax assets in connection with the enactment of the Tax Act in the fourth quarter of 2017.
