Fair Value | Note 6—Fair Value Most of the Company’s assets and certain of its liabilities are measured at or based on their fair values. 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 significant 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 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. Fair Value Accounting Elections The Company identified its MSRs, its mortgage servicing liabilities (“MSLs”) and all of its non-cash financial assets other than Assets purchased from PennyMac Mortgage Investment Trust under agreements to resell Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis Following is a summary of assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis: June 30, 2021 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total (in thousands) Assets: Short-term investments $ 3,720 $ — $ — $ 3,720 Loans held for sale at fair value — 7,066,245 3,818,261 10,884,506 Derivative assets: Interest rate lock commitments — — 344,128 344,128 Forward purchase contracts — 55,765 — 55,765 Forward sales contracts — 39,597 — 39,597 MBS put options — 13,106 — 13,106 MBS call options — 687 — 687 Swaption purchase contracts — 11,041 — 11,041 Put options on interest rate futures purchase contracts 2,664 — — 2,664 Call options on interest rate futures purchase contracts 2,297 — — 2,297 Total derivative assets before netting 4,961 120,196 344,128 469,285 Netting — — — (98,016) Total derivative assets 4,961 120,196 344,128 371,269 Mortgage servicing rights at fair value — — 3,412,648 3,412,648 Investment in PennyMac Mortgage Investment Trust 1,580 — — 1,580 $ 10,261 $ 7,186,441 $ 7,575,037 $ 14,673,723 Liabilities: Derivative liabilities: Interest rate lock commitments $ — $ — $ 518 $ 518 Forward purchase contracts — 23,274 — 23,274 Forward sales contracts — 68,347 — 68,347 Total derivative liabilities before netting — 91,621 518 92,139 Netting — — — (48,229) Total derivative liabilities — 91,621 518 43,910 Mortgage servicing liabilities at fair value — — 100,091 100,091 $ — $ 91,621 $ 100,609 $ 144,001 December 31, 2020 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total (in thousands) Assets: Short-term investments $ 15,217 $ — $ — $ 15,217 Loans held for sale at fair value — 6,941,231 4,675,169 11,616,400 Derivative assets: Interest rate lock commitments — — 679,961 679,961 Forward purchase contracts — 133,267 — 133,267 Forward sales contracts — 1,451 — 1,451 MBS put options — 14,302 — 14,302 Swaption purchase contracts — 11,939 — 11,939 Put options on interest rate futures purchase contracts 5,520 — — 5,520 Call options on interest rate futures purchase contracts 1,391 — — 1,391 Total derivative assets before netting 6,911 160,959 679,961 847,831 Netting — — — (136,593) Total derivative assets 6,911 160,959 679,961 711,238 Mortgage servicing rights at fair value — — 2,581,174 2,581,174 Investment in PennyMac Mortgage Investment Trust 1,105 — — 1,105 $ 23,233 $ 7,102,190 $ 7,936,304 $ 14,925,134 Liabilities: Excess servicing spread financing payable to PennyMac Mortgage Investment Trust at fair value $ — $ — $ 131,750 $ 131,750 Derivative liabilities: Interest rate lock commitments — — 2,935 2,935 Forward purchase contracts — 1,276 — 1,276 Forward sales contracts — 251,149 — 251,149 Total derivative liabilities before netting — 252,425 2,935 255,360 Netting — — — (212,722) Total derivative liabilities — 252,425 2,935 42,638 Mortgage servicing liabilities at fair value — — 45,324 45,324 $ — $ 252,425 $ 180,009 $ 219,712 As shown above, all or a portion of the Company’s loans held for sale, Interest Rate Lock Commitments (“IRLCs”), MSRs, ESS and MSLs are measured using Level 3 fair value inputs.

Certain of the Company’s financial assets and derivative liabilities and all of its MSRs, ESS, and MSLs are “Level 3” fair value assets and liabilities which require use of unobservable inputs that are significant to the estimation of the items’ fair values. 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 the responsibility for estimating the fair value of these items to specialized staff and subjects the valuation process to significant senior management oversight. The Company’s Financial Analysis and Valuation group (the “FAV group”) is the Company’s specialized staff responsible for estimating the fair values of “Level 3” fair value assets and liabilities other than IRLCs. With respect to the non-IRLC “Level 3” valuations, the FAV group reports to the Company’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, including the models’ performance versus actual results, and reports those results to the Company’s senior management valuation committee. The Company’s senior management valuation committee includes the Company’s chief operating, financial, investment and risk 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 the Company’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. The Company has assigned responsibility for developing the fair values of IRLCs to its Capital Markets Risk Management staff. The fair values developed by the Capital Markets Risk Management staff are reviewed by the Company’s Capital Markets Operations group. Valuation Techniques and Inputs 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: Loans Held for Sale Most of the Company’s loans held for sale at fair value are saleable into active markets and are therefore categorized as “Level 2” fair value assets. The fair values of “Level 2” fair value loans are determined using their contracted selling price or quoted market price or market price equivalent. Certain of the Company’s loans held for sale are not saleable into active markets and are therefore categorized as “Level 3” fair value assets. Loans held for sale categorized as “Level 3” fair value assets include: ● Government guaranteed or insured loans purchased by the Company from Ginnie Mae guaranteed pools in its loan servicing portfolio. The Company’s right to purchase government guaranteed or insured loans arises as the result of the loan being at least three months delinquent on the date of purchase by the Company and provides an alternative to the Company’s obligation to continue advancing principal and interest at the coupon rate of the related Ginnie Mae security. Such loans may be resold to investors and thereafter may be repurchased to the extent eligible for resale into a new Ginnie Mae guaranteed security. Loans become eligible for resale into a new Ginnie Mae security when the loans become current either through completion of a modification of the loan’s terms or after six months of timely payments following either the completion of certain types of payment deferral programs or borrower reperformance and when the issuance date of the new security is at least 210 days after the date the loan was last delinquent. ● Loans that are not saleable into active markets due to identification of a defect by the Company or to the repurchase by the Company of a loan with an identified defect. The Company uses a discounted cash flow model to estimate the fair value of its “Level 3” fair value loans held for sale. The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Company’s “Level 3” fair value loans held for sale are discount rates, home price projections, voluntary prepayment/resale and total prepayment speeds. Significant changes in any of those inputs in isolation could result in a significant change to the loans’ fair value measurement. Increases in home price projections are generally accompanied by an increase in voluntary prepayment speeds. Following is a quantitative summary of key “Level 3” fair value inputs used in the valuation of loans held for sale: June 30, 2021 December 31, 2020 Fair value (in thousands) $ 3,818,261 $ 4,675,169 Key inputs (1): Discount rate: Range 2.0% – 9.2% 2.8% – 9.2% Weighted average 2.0% 2.8% Twelve-month projected housing price index change: Range 4.8% – 5.3% 2.7% – 3.5% Weighted average 5.1% 3.0% Voluntary prepayment/resale speed (2): Range 0.4% – 26.8% 0.4% – 31.3% Weighted average 22.0% 21.9% Total prepayment speed (3): Range 0.4% – 37.6% 0.5% – 42.9% Weighted average 28.8% 29.2% (1) Weighted average inputs are based on the fair value of the “Level 3” loans. (2) Voluntary prepayment/resale speed is measured using Life Voluntary Conditional Prepayment Rate (“CPR”). (3) Total prepayment speed is measured using Life Total CPR, which includes both voluntary and involuntary prepayment and resale rates. Changes in fair value of loans held for sale attributable to changes in the loan’s instrument-specific credit risk are measured with reference to the change in the respective loan’s delinquency status and performance history at period end from the later of the beginning of the period or acquisition date. Changes in fair value of loans held for sale are included in Net gains on loans held for sale at fair value Derivative Financial Instruments Interest Rate Lock Commitments The Company categorizes IRLCs as “Level 3” fair value assets or liabilities. The Company estimates the fair value of IRLCs based on quoted Agency MBS prices, its estimate of the fair value of the MSRs it expects to receive in the sale of the loans and the probability that the loan will be funded or purchased (the “pull-through rate”). The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Company’s IRLCs are the pull-through rate and the estimated fair value of MSR attributable to the mortgage loans it has committed to purchase. Significant changes in the pull-through rate or the MSR component of the IRLCs, in isolation, could result in significant changes in the IRLCs’ fair value measurement. 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 fair value, but increase the pull-through rate for the loan principal and interest payment cash flow component, which has decreased in fair value. Changes in fair value of IRLCs are included in Net gains on loans held for sale at fair value Following is a quantitative summary of key unobservable inputs used in the valuation of IRLCs: June 30, 2021 December 31, 2020 Fair value (in thousands) $ 343,610 $ 677,026 Key inputs Pull-through rate: Range 8.0% – 100% 10.1% – 100% Weighted average 82.7% 82.7% Mortgage servicing rights value expressed as: Servicing fee multiple: Range (14.7) – 6.5 0.7 – 5.3 Weighted average 3.6 3.6 Percentage of loan commitment amount Range (2.1)% – 3.1% 0.1% – 2.6% Weighted average 1.2% 1.2% (1) For purpose of this table, IRLC asset and liability positions are shown net. (2) Weighted average inputs are based on the committed amounts. Hedging Derivatives Fair values of derivative financial instruments actively traded on exchanges are categorized by the Company as “Level 1” fair value assets and 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 gains on loans held for sale at fair value, Net loan servicing fees – Hedging results . Mortgage Servicing Rights MSRs are categorized as “Level 3” fair value assets. The Company uses a discounted cash flow approach to estimate the fair value of MSRs. The key inputs used in the estimation of the fair value of MSRs include the applicable pricing spread (discount rate), prepayment rates (prepayment speed), and annual per-loan cost to service the underlying 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 Change in fair value of mortgage servicing rights and mortgage servicing liabilities Following are the key inputs used in determining the fair value of MSRs received by the Company when it retains the obligation to service the mortgage loans it sells: Quarter ended June 30, Six months ended June 30, 2021 2020 2021 2020 (Amount recognized and unpaid principal balance of underlying loans in thousands) MSR and pool characteristics: Amount recognized $ 483,362 $ 225,534 $ 953,895 $ 507,849 Unpaid principal balance of underlying loans $ 36,830,098 $ 20,066,302 $ 71,773,352 $ 38,396,686 Weighted average servicing fee rate (in basis points) 33 36 33 38 Key inputs (1): Pricing spread (2): Range 6.0% – 16.9% 8.1% – 18.1% 6.0% – 16.9% 6.8% – 18.1% Weighted average 8.9% 9.9% 9.2% 9.1% Annual total prepayment speed (3): Range 6.7% – 17.7% 8.8% – 29.1% 6.2% – 16.7% 8.8% – 49.8% Weighted average 8.5% 13.0% 8.1% 13.7% Equivalent average life (in years): Range 4.0 – 8.8 2.9 – 8.1 4.1 – 9.0 1.5 – 8.1 Weighted average 8.1 6.3 8.3 6.1 Per-loan annual cost of servicing: Range $80 – $117 $79 – $110 $81 – $117 $77 – $110 Weighted average $104 $101 $104 $99 (1) Weighted average inputs are based on the UPB of the underlying loans. (2) Pricing spread represents a margin that is applied to a reference interest rate’s forward rate curve to develop periodic discount rates. The Company applies a pricing spread to the United States Dollar London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”)/swap curve for purposes of discounting cash flows relating to MSRs. (3) Annual total prepayment speed is measured using Life Total CPR, which includes both voluntary and involuntary prepayments. Equivalent average life is provided for informational purposes. Following is a quantitative summary of key inputs used in the valuation of the Company’s MSRs and the effect on the fair value from adverse changes in those inputs: June 30, 2021 December 31, 2020 (Fair value, unpaid principal balance of underlying loans and effect on fair value amounts in thousands) Fair value $ 3,412,648 $ 2,581,174 Pool characteristics: Unpaid principal balance of underlying loans $ 252,475,400 $ 238,410,809 Weighted average note interest rate 3.3% 3.6% Weighted average servicing fee rate (in basis points) 34 35 Key inputs (1): Pricing spread |
