Nationstar Mortgage Holdings Inc. (NYSE:NSM) today reported financial results for its third quarter ended September 30, 2016.
“Our third quarter achievements solidify us as the preferred industry partner,” said Jay Bray, Chairman and CEO. “In the quarter we posted strong operational results, added almost 510 thousand customers to our servicing platform, funded over 25 thousand loans and launched enhanced technologies that improve the home ownership experience for our 2.7 million and growing customer base. We ended the quarter with the largest servicing portfolio in our company’s history, are actively engaged in a significant pipeline and remain focused on creating value for our shareholders.”
Company Results
For the third quarter, net income for GAAP purposes was $45 million or $0.46 per share. On an adjusted basis, the Company achieved net income of $51 million, or $0.52 per share, driven by recapturing customers through our originations platform and our strong servicing performance despite elevated amortization. The third quarter adjustments to net income include the net fair value marks and exit costs related to the originations builder channel.
Servicing Segment
The Servicing segment achieved GAAP pretax income of $31 million on average UPB of $390 billion for the third quarter. On an adjusted basis, which removes the impact of fair value marks, adjusted pretax income was $39 million or 4.0 bps.
