UWM Holdings Corporation Announces Fourth Quarter & Full Year 2023 Results
UWM Holdings Corporation (NYSE: UWMC) reported a strong fourth quarter with a loan origination volume of $24.4 billion, including $20.7 billion in purchase volume. The company experienced a net loss of $461.0 million for 4Q23, mainly due to a decline in fair value of MSRs. Despite the financial loss, UWM remains operationally profitable and aims to invest in people, products, and technology for future growth.
Positive

Net loss of $461.0 million in 4Q23, driven by a decline in fair value of MSRs
Company maintains operational profitability despite financial loss
Focus on investing in people, products, and technology for future growth
Record purchase originations of $93.9 billion in full year 2023
Negative
Net loss of $69.8 million for full year 2023
Decline in fair value of MSRs impacting financial results
Decrease in total equity from $3.1 billion in 3Q23 to $2.5 billion in 4Q23
Reduction in available liquidity from $2.9 billion in 3Q23 to $2.2 billion in 4Q23
The reported net loss of $461.0 million in the fourth quarter by UWM Holdings Corporation, including a significant markdown in the fair value of Mortgage Servicing Rights (MSRs), indicates potential volatility in the company's financial health. The decline in MSRs' value is primarily attributed to interest rate movements, which tend to inversely affect the valuation of these assets. It's important to note that MSRs are rights to service mortgages in exchange for a fee and their value can fluctuate with changes in interest rates and prepayment speeds. The reported total loan origination volume shows a decrease from the previous quarter and year-over-year, which may raise concerns about the company's growth trajectory in a competitive mortgage lending market.
Furthermore, the company's total gain margin of 92 basis points (bps) for the fourth quarter, although higher than the same quarter of the previous year, has decreased from the previous quarter, suggesting margin compression. This metric, which represents total loan production income divided by loan origination volume, is a critical indicator of the profitability per loan and can impact the company's overall financial performance. The provided outlook for the first quarter of 2024, with an anticipated production range of $22 to $28 billion and gain margin from 80 to 105 bps, suggests that the company is expecting a similar performance in the near term. The consistency of the dividend payout could be seen as a positive signal to investors regarding the company's commitment to shareholder returns despite the net loss.
The mortgage industry is highly sensitive to interest rate fluctuations and UWM Holdings Corporation's performance reflects this with a substantial impact on their MSRs. The company's focus on purchase originations, which accounted for the majority of its loan volume, demonstrates a strategic emphasis on the home purchase market rather than refinancing, which can be more interest rate-sensitive. This is evident from the record purchase originations reported for the full year of 2023. The company's position as the number one mortgage originator in America, according to the CEO, could help maintain its market share despite the challenging environment.
UWM's technological advancements and product launches, such as the Memory Maker tool and enhancements to Investor Flex, indicate an investment in innovation to enhance customer experience and operational efficiency. These initiatives could play a crucial role in differentiating UWM in the competitive mortgage lending space and securing future business. The reported Net Promoter Score of +86.5, which is a measure of customer loyalty, suggests strong customer satisfaction that could lead to repeat business and referrals, which are vital in the mortgage industry.
The mortgage market is influenced by broader economic conditions, particularly interest rates and housing market trends. UWM Holdings Corporation's significant net loss, driven by the markdown in MSRs, reflects the broader impact of rising interest rates on financial assets. The Federal Reserve's monetary policy, aimed at controlling inflation, has led to increased borrowing costs, which in turn can reduce demand for mortgage originations and put pressure on lenders' gain margins.
The company's strategic decision to focus on purchase volume over refinancing could be a response to the anticipated slowdown in refinancing activities due to higher rates. This shift in strategy may help to stabilize revenue streams, as purchase originations are less sensitive to interest rate increases compared to refinancing. Additionally, the company's low delinquency rate compared to the industry average suggests strong underwriting standards and a healthy loan portfolio, which is critical for long-term financial stability in a rising rate environment.

PONTIAC, Mich. --(BUSINESS WIRE)--
UWM Holdings Corporation (NYSE: UWMC) (the "Company"), the publicly traded indirect parent of United Wholesale Mortgage (“UWM”), today announced its results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2023. Total loan origination volume for the fourth quarter 2023 was $24.4 billion , of which $20.7 billion was purchase volume. Total loan originations for full year 2023 were $108.3 billion , of which $93.9 billion was purchase volume.

The Company reported full year 2023 loss of $69.8 million , inclusive of a $854.1 million decline in fair value of MSRs, and diluted loss per share of $0.14 .
Mat Ishbia, Chairman and CEO of UWMC, said, "2023 was one of the best years in our company history. We were the number one mortgage originator in America, number one in purchase origination again, and, nine years running, the number one wholesale lender. We continue to be operationally profitable, the true measure of a mortgage originator's health, while our financial loss was driven by the MSR markdown which is a result of interest rate movements. Our recipe for success has not and will not change and we are currently doubling down on investing in our people, our products and our technology so that we can continue to provide the broker channel with the tools needed to win. I believe that 2024 is a tremendous opportunity for both UWM and the broker channel."

Key Operational Metrics
“Loan origination volume” and “Total gain margin” are key operational metrics that the Company's management uses to evaluate the performance of the business. “Loan origination volume” is the aggregate principal of the residential mortgage loans originated by the Company during a period. “Total gain margin” represents total loan production income divided by loan origination volume for the applicable periods.
Non-GAAP Metrics
The Company's net income does not reflect the income tax provision that would otherwise be reflected if 100% of the economic interest in UWM was owned by the Company. Therefore, for comparison purposes, the Company provides “Adjusted net income (loss),” which is our pre-tax income (loss) together with an adjusted income tax provision (benefit), which is calculated as the provision for income taxes plus the tax effects of net income attributable to non-controlling interest determined using a blended statutory effective tax rate. “Adjusted net income (loss)” is a non-GAAP metric. "Adjusted diluted EPS" is defined as "Adjusted net income (loss)" divided by the weighted average number of shares of Class A common stock outstanding for the applicable period, assuming the exchange and conversion of all outstanding Class D common stock for Class A common stock, and is calculated and presented for periods in which the assumed exchange and conversion of Class D common stock to Class A common stock is anti-dilutive to EPS.
We also disclose Adjusted EBITDA, which we define as earnings (loss) before interest expense on non-funding debt, provision for income taxes, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation expense, the change in fair value of MSRs due to valuation inputs or assumptions, the impact of non-cash deferred compensation expense, the change in fair value of the Public and Private Warrants, the change in Tax Receivable Agreement liability and the change in fair value of retained investment securities. We exclude the change in Tax Receivable Agreement liability, the change in fair value of the Public and Private Warrants, the change in fair value of retained investment securities, and the change in fair value of MSRs due to valuation inputs or assumptions, as these represent non-cash, non-realized adjustments to our earnings, which is not indicative of our performance or results of operations. Adjusted EBITDA includes interest expense on funding facilities, which are recorded as a component of interest expense, as these expenses are a direct operating expense driven by loan origination volume. By contrast, interest expense on non-funding debt is a function of our capital structure and is therefore excluded from Adjusted EBITDA.
In addition, we disclose “Non-funding debt” and the “Non-funding debt to equity ratio” as a non-GAAP metric. We define “Non-funding debt” as the total of the Company's senior notes, lines of credit, borrowings against investment securities, equipment note payable, and finance leases and the “Non-funding debt-to-equity ratio” as total non-funding debt divided by the Company’s total equity.
Management believes that these non-GAAP metrics provide useful information to investors. These measures are not financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered as a substitute for any other operating performance measure calculated in accordance with GAAP, and may not be comparable to a similarly titled measure reported by other companies.
The following tables set forth the reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP (dollars in thousands, except per share amounts):
