UWM delivered Q1 2026 loan origination volume of $44.9 billion, up 39% year-over-year, with total revenue of $901.4 million. Net income reached $170.4 million versus a prior-year net loss, indicating significantly improved profitability in a still-challenging rate environment.
Margins and earnings quality also strengthened. Total gain margin rose to 1.23%, while Adjusted EBITDA increased to $160.9 million, up sharply from $57.8 million in Q1 2025. Mortgage servicing rights expanded, with unpaid principal balance of $229.5 billion and weighted average coupon of 5.90%.

Adjusted EBITDA financial
"The Company reported 1Q26 total revenue of $901.4 million, net income of $170.4 million and adjusted EBITDA of $160.9 million."
Adjusted EBITDA is a way companies measure how much money they make from their core operations, like running a business, by removing certain costs or income that aren’t part of regular business activities. It helps investors see how well a company is doing without distractions from unusual expenses or gains, making it easier to compare companies or track performance over time.
mortgage servicing rights financial
"Unpaid principal balance of MSRs of $229.5 billion with a WAC of 5.90% at March 31, 2026"
Mortgage servicing rights are the contractual right to collect mortgage payments, manage escrow accounts, handle customer service and delinquency actions on a pool of home loans, in exchange for a portion of the loan’s payments. They matter to investors because their value behaves like a revenue stream that can rise or fall with interest rates and borrower behavior — similar to owning a toll bridge where income depends on traffic volume and maintenance costs — and thus affect a lender’s earnings and risk profile.
Non-funding debt financial
"In addition, we disclose “Non-funding debt” and the “Non-funding debt-to-equity ratio” as a non-GAAP metric."
total gain margin financial
"Total gain margin of 123 bps in 1Q26 compared to 122 bps in 4Q25 and 94 bps in 1Q25"
Tax Receivable Agreement liability financial
"the non-cash income/expense impact of the change in the Tax Receivable Agreement liability"
A tax receivable agreement liability is the recorded future obligation a company expects to pay under an agreement that shares tax savings generated after a corporate transaction. Think of it like promising to split a refund with a former owner: the company recognizes a future bill on its books that reduces cash available to shareholders and can affect valuation and debt capacity. Investors watch it because it represents a real, sometimes sizable, cash outflow tied to tax benefits realized over time.
non-GAAP metric financial
"“Adjusted net income (loss)” is a non-GAAP metric."

Our team and broker partners executed at the highest level, using UWM’s proprietary technology and AI‑powered tools like Mia to win more loans, more efficiently, every day. We continue to move ahead of schedule with bringing servicing in‑house, and regardless of whether rates stay higher or move lower, we are positioned to keep winning as we are built to perform through all cycles. This quarter is a clear proof point of that.”

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 before interest expense on non-funding debt, provision for income taxes, depreciation and amortization, adjusted to exclude stock-based compensation expense, the change in fair value of MSRs due to valuation inputs or assumptions, gains or losses on other interest rate derivatives, the impact of non-cash deferred compensation expense, the change in fair value of the Public and Private Warrants, the non-cash income/expense impact of the change in the Tax Receivable Agreement liability, the change in fair value of retained investment securities, and acquisition-related expenses (net of recoveries) as we believe these adjustments are 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. Non-funding debt includes the Company's senior notes, lines of credit, borrowings against investment securities, and finance leases.
3
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, 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):
