Graham A. Fleming , President and Interim Chief Executive Officer commented, “As we saw in the first quarter of 2022, rates and credit spreads remained volatile and increased dramatically throughout the quarter. The ten year treasury yield rose 117 basis points to an intra-quarter high of 3.49% on June 14 before decreasing 51 basis points to 2.98% by quarter end. Credit spreads also continued to widen at a rapid pace during the second quarter and reached new highs. We have updated our fair value models to account for these changes, which resulted in substantial negative fair value adjustments as we marked our balance sheet to reflect the lifetime impacts on long-term assets and liabilities. In the second quarter, our Reverse and Commercial segments continued to deliver strong volumes; however, due to substantially wider credit spreads, margins were lower than expected throughout the second quarter. In response, we have undertaken decisive actions to improve and protect margins and have seen some stability return in the first part of the third quarter.
We are committed to position FOA for long-term success and utilized the cash generated from hedge gains in the first half of 2022 to pay down our lines of credit and reduce volatility of the balance sheet. In addition, we have dramatically reduced run-rate expenses across the Company, but specifically in the Mortgage Originations segment, which has seen the biggest impact to volumes.
As we move forward, we remain focused on our strategic initiatives and will continue to take the necessary actions to return the company to profitability and ensure the long-term success of Finance of America.”

Cash and cash equivalents ended the second quarter at $219 million . The $8 million decrease in cash was primarily attributable to repayment of debt, offset by cash receipts on hedging positions.
MSR balances declined 16% quarter over quarter following a strategic asset sale in the period.
Total assets declined 2% from prior quarter due to reduced loan and MSR balances on the balance sheet, in addition to derivative asset positions rolling off, as hedge gains were realized during the quarter.
Total liabilities declined $173 million on a sequential quarter basis primarily due to paying down outstanding financing lines of credit.
The decline in total equity is primarily due to fair value adjustments recognized during the quarter resulting from widening credit spreads. As a result, total tangible equity decreased $155 million to $288 million .

Net rate lock volume totaled $3,800 million compared to $5,317 million in the prior quarter as rising interest rates continued to pressure refinance volumes industry-wide.
Year-to-date funded purchase volume is essentially flat compared to the same period in 2021, and up 21% quarter over quarter.
Year-to-date funded non-agency volume is up 13% compared to the same period in 2021, despite the dramatic increase in interest rates.
Total revenue of $103 million for the second quarter compared to $135 million in the prior quarter, which reflects the impact of lower net rate lock volume.
Pre-tax loss was $35 million for the second quarter compared to pre-tax loss of $22 million in the prior quarter. The decline in quarterly earnings was due to the decline in origination volumes, as higher interest rates dampened demand for refinances. This decline was partially offset by fixed expense reductions of nearly 15% compared to the prior quarter.
During the course of Q2 and in early Q3, further expense reductions were made in Mortgage Originations and the full effects of those reductions will be realized over the remainder of the year.
Reverse Originations
The Reverse Originations segment generates revenue and earnings in the form of net origination gains and origination fees earned on the origination of reverse mortgage loans.

Second quarter 2022 funded reverse volume was $1,580 million , an increase of 7% from the prior quarter, which set a fifth consecutive quarterly volume record. The growth in volume is attributable primarily to market penetration with new-to-reverse customers.
Second quarter 2022 revenue of $80 million declined 26% from the first quarter 2022 due primarily to the impact of widening credit spreads during the quarter, which negatively affected origination margins.
Year-to-date 2022 revenue of $188 million represents a 15% increase compared to the same period in 2021, which was driven by strong growth in volumes period over period.
Commercial Originations
The Commercial Originations segment provides business purpose lending solutions for residential real estate investors. The Commercial Originations segment generates revenue and earnings in the form of net origination gains and origination fees earned on the origination of mortgage loans.

Second quarter 2022 mortgage servicing rights were down 16% to $359 million compared to the prior quarter, due to a strategic sale of MSR during the quarter. We continue to monitor and strategically manage our MSRs balances to take advantage of opportunities the market presents.
Revenue in the second quarter 2022 was negative due to fair value adjustments on long-term assets and liabilities, as we updated model assumptions to account for substantially higher credit spreads and increased interest rates.

Forward-Looking Statements
This presentation includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the “safe harbor” provisions of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements are not historical facts or statements of current conditions, but instead represent only management’s beliefs regarding future events, many of which, by their nature, are inherently uncertain and outside of the Company’s control. It is possible that our actual results, financial condition and liquidity may differ, possibly materially, from the anticipated results, financial condition and liquidity in these forward-looking statements. The Company’s actual results may differ from its expectations, estimates, and projections and, consequently, you should not rely on these forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. Words such as “expect,” “estimate,” “project,” “budget,” “forecast,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “may,” “will,” “could,” “should,” “believes,” “predicts,” “potential,” “continue,” and similar expressions (or the negative versions of such words or expressions) are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. The Company cautions readers not to place undue reliance upon any forward-looking statements, which are current only as of the date of this release. Results for any specified quarter are not necessarily indicative of the results that maybe expected for the full year or any future period. The Company does not undertake or accept any obligation or undertaking to release publicly any updates or revisions to any forward-looking statements to reflect any change in its expectations or any change in events, conditions, or circumstances on which any such statement is based, except as required by law. All subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements concerning Finance of America or other matters and attributable to Finance of America or any person acting on its behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements above. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance upon any forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made. Such forward-looking statements are subject to various risks and uncertainties which include, but are not limited to, the following risks: the possibility that the Company may be adversely affected by other economic, business, and/or competitive factors in our markets; our ability to obtain sufficient capital to meet the financing requirements of our business; our ability to finance and recover costs of our reverse servicing operations; changes in our business relationships or changes in servicing guidelines with Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac and Ginnie Mae ; the COVID-19 pandemic and its unique challenges to our business, which could adversely impact our ability to originate and service mortgages, manage our portfolio of assets and provide lender services, and could also adversely impact our counterparties, liquidity and employees; our business is significantly impacted by interest rates, and changes in prevailing interest rates or U.S. monetary policies that affect interest rates may have a detrimental effect on our business; our geographic concentration could materially and adversely affect us if the economic conditions in our current markets should decline or we could face losses in concentrated areas due to natural disasters; use of estimates in measuring or determining the fair value of the majority of our assets and liabilities; if our estimates prove to be incorrect, we may be required to write down the value of these assets or write up the value of these liabilities, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations; our ability to obtain sufficient capital to meet the financing requirements of our business, or if we fail to comply with our debt agreements, our business, financing activities, financial condition and results of operations will be adversely affected; a disruption in the secondary home loan market, including the mortgage-backed securities market, could have a detrimental effect on our business; Finance of America Reverse LLC’s status as an approved non-supervised Federal Housing Administration mortgage and an approved Government National Mortgage Association issuer; Finance of America Mortgage LLC’s status as an approved seller servicer for Federal National Mortgage Association and Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corp., an approved Ginnie Mae issuer and an approved non-supervised FHA and U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs mortgage, are subject to compliance with each of their respective guidelines and other conditions they may impose, and the failure to meet such guidelines and conditions could have a material adverse effect on our overall business and our financial position, results of operations and cash flows; the engagement of our Lender Services business by our loan originator businesses may give appearance of a conflict of interest; third party customers of our Lender Services businesses and concerns regarding conflicts of interest within our Lender Services Businesses, due to their affiliation with the Company; our Lender Services business has operations in the Philippines that could be adversely affected by changes in political or economic stability or by government policies; we operate in heavily regulated industries, and our mortgage loan origination and servicing activities (including lender services) expose us to risks of noncompliance with an increasing and inconsistent body of complex laws and regulations at the U.S. federal, state and local levels; various legal proceedings, federal or state governmental examinations and enforcement investigations we are subject to from time to time, which may be. highly complex and slow to develop, and results are difficult to predict or estimate; unlike competitors that are national banks, our lending subsidiaries are subject to state licensing and operational requirements that result in substantial compliance costs; our substantial leverage could adversely affect our financial condition, our ability to raise additional capital to fund our operations, our ability to operate our business, our ability to react to changes in the economy or our industry or our ability to pay our debts, and could divert our cash flow from operations to debt payments; the Company is a holding company and its only material asset is its interest in Finance of America Equity Capital LLC , and it is accordingly dependent upon distributions from Finance of America Equity Capital LLC to pay taxes, make payments under the tax receivable agreements and pay dividends; due to the listing of the Company’s Class A Common Stock on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”), the Company is a “controlled company” within the meaning of NYSE rules and, as a result, qualifies for exemptions from certain corporate governance requirements, and, accordingly, the stockholders of the Company do not have the same protections afforded to stockholders of companies that are subject to such requirements; we have a substantial number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of Finance of America Equity Capital LLC Units, which may dilute your investment, and the sale of which could cause significant downward pricing pressure on our stock; the brief trading history of our common stock has been characterized by low trading volume, which may result in an inability to sell your shares at a desired price, if at all; and other risks and uncertainties set forth in the section entitled “Risk Factors” included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 , originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 15, 2022 , as such factors may be amended and updated from time to time in the Company’s subsequent periodic filings with the SEC , which are accessible on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov .
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Company’s management evaluates performance of the Company through the use certain non-GAAP financial measures, including Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Share.
We define Adjusted Net Income as net income adjusted for change in fair value of loans and securities held for investment due to assumption changes, change in fair value of deferred purchase price obligations (including earnouts and TRA obligations), warrant liability, and minority investments, amortization and other impairments, equity based compensation, and certain non-recurring costs.
We define Adjusted EBITDA as Adjusted Net Income (defined above) adjusted for taxes, interest on non-funding debt and depreciation.
We define Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share as Adjusted Net Income (defined above) divided by our weighted average diluted share count, which includes our issued and outstanding Class A Common Stock shares plus Finance of America Equity Capital LLC’s Class A LLC units owned by our noncontrolling interests on an if-converted basis.
The presentation of non-GAAP measures is used to enhance investors’ understanding of certain aspects of our financial performance. This discussion is not meant to be considered in isolation, superior to, or as a substitute for the directly comparable financial measures prepared in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP"). Management believes these key financial measures provide an additional view of our performance over the long-term and provide useful information that we use in order to maintain and grow our business.
These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as an alternate to (i) net income (loss) or any other performance measures determined in accordance with GAAP or (ii) operating cash flows determine in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Share have important limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Some of the limitations of these metrics are: (i) cash expenditures for future contractual commitments; (ii) cash requirements for working capital needs; (iii) cash requirements for certain tax payments; and (iv) all non-cash income/expense items.
Because of these limitations, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Share should not be considered as measures of discretionary cash available to us to invest in the growth of our business or distribute to stockholders. We compensate for these limitations by relying primarily on our GAAP results and using our non-GAAP financial measures only as a supplement. Users of our interim unaudited consolidated financial statements are cautioned not to place undue reliance on our non-GAAP financial measures.
