NOTE 1 – DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS, PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, the statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation were included. The results of operations for the three and six months ended March 31, 2021June 30, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2021.2022. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Annual Report of loanDepot, Inc. on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 20202021 (“20202021 Form 10-K”).

Nature of Operations

loanDepot, Inc. was incorporated in Delaware on November 6, 2020 to facilitate the initial public offering (“IPO”) of its Class A common stock and related transactions in order to carry on the business of LD Holdings Group, LLC (“LD Holdings”) and its consolidated subsidiaries. loanDepot, Inc.’s common stock began trading on the New York Stock Exchange on February 11, 2021 under the ticker symbol “LDI.” loanDepot, Inc. is a holding company and its sole material asset is its equity interest in LD Holdings. As of June 30, 2022 the consolidated subsidiaries of LD Holdings included loanDepot.com, LLC, (“LDLLC”), Artemis Management, LLC (“ART”), LD Settlement Services, LLC (“LDSS”), and mello Holdings, LLC (“Mello”), and mello Credit Strategies LLC (“MCS”). Unless otherwise noted or indicated by the context, the term, the “Company”“Company,” refers (1) prior to the consummation of the IPO and Reorganization described below, to LD Holdings and its consolidated subsidiaries, and (2) after the IPO and reorganization described below, to loanDepot, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries, including LD Holdings.

The Company engages in the originating, financing, selling, and servicing of residential mortgage loans, and engages in title, escrow, and settlement services for mortgage loan transactions. The Company derives income primarily from gains on the origination and sale of loans to investors, income from loan servicing, and fees charged for settlement services related to the origination and sale of loans.

Initial Public Offering

The Company's common stock began trading on The New York Stock Exchange on February 11, 2021 under the ticker symbol “LDI.” The IPO consisted of 3,850,000 shares of Class A common stock, $0.001 par value per share, at an offering price of $14.00 per share, pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-1.

Prior to the IPO, the Company completed a reorganization by which it changed its equity structure to create a single class of LLC units in LD Holdings. Prior to that transaction, the capital structure consisted of different classes of membership interests held by certain members of LD Holdings (“Continuing LLC Members”). The LLC units were then exchanged on a 1-for-one basis for Holdco Units and Class C common stock. The Continuing LLC Members have the right to exchange 1 Holdco Unit and 1 share of Class B common stock or Class C common stock, as applicable, together for cash or one share of Class A common stock at the Company’s election, subject to customary conversion rate adjustments for stock splits, stock dividends, and reclassifications.

The reorganization is considered a transaction between entities under common control, therefore, the financial statements for the periods prior to the IPO and reorganization have been adjusted to combine the previously separate entities for presentation. Prior to the reorganization and IPO, the Company had not engaged in any business or other activities, except in connection with its formation.

As a result of the IPO and reorganization:

loanDepot, Inc. is a holding company and its sole material asset is an equity interest in LD Holdings. LD Holdings continues to be a holding company and has no material assets other than its equity interests in its direct subsidiaries consisting of a 99.99% ownership in LDLLC (the majority asset of the group), and 100% equity ownership in ART, LDSS, and Mello. loanDepot, Inc. is the sole managing member of LD Holdings, and indirectly


6



operates and controls all of LD Holdings’ business and affairs and consolidates the financial results of LD Holdings and its subsidiaries. The financial results of LD Holdings and its subsidiaries are consolidated with loanDepot, Inc., and the consolidated net earnings or loss are allocated to the noncontrolling interest to reflect the entitlement of the Continuing LLC Members.

The Company has entered into a tax receivable agreement (“TRA”) with certain funds managed by Parthenon Capital Partners, (the “Parthenon Stockholders”), Parthenon affiliates owning Holdco Units, and certain Continuing LLC Members, whereby loanDepot, Inc. will be obligated to pay such parties or their permitted assignees, 85% of the amount of cash tax savings, if any, in U.S. federal, state, and local taxes that loanDepot, Inc. realizes, or is deemed to realize as a result of future tax benefits from increases in tax basis. The TRA liability is accounted for as a contingent liability with amounts accrued when deemed probable and estimable.


Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Our accounting policies are described below and in Note 1- Description of Business, Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, of our audited consolidated financial statements included in our 20202021 Form 10-K.

Consolidation and Basis of Presentation

The Company's consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP as codified in the Financial Accounting Standards Board's (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC” or the “Codification”).

ASC 250 requires that a change in the reporting entity or the consummation of a transaction accounted for in a manner similar to a pooling of interests, i.e., a reorganization of entities under common control, be retrospectively applied to the financial statements of all prior periods when the financial statements are issued for a period that includes the date the change in reporting entity or the transaction occurred. Prior to the IPO, the Company completed a reorganization where LLC units in LD Holdings held by certain members (“Continuing LLC Members) were exchanged on a 1-for-one basis for Class A holding units (“Holdco Units”) and Class C common stock. LD Holdings continues to be a holding company and has no material assets other than its equity interests in its direct subsidiaries consisting of a 99.99% ownership in LDLLC (the majority asset of the group), and 100% equity ownership in ART, LDSS, Mello, and MCS. As a result of the IPO and reorganization, loanDepot, Inc. became a holding company, its sole material asset is its equity interest in LD Holdings and as the sole managing member of LD Holdings, loanDepot, Inc. indirectly operates and controls all of LD Holdings’ business and affairs. The IPO and reorganization were considered transactions between entities under common control, therefore, the financial statements for the periods prior to the IPO and reorganization have been adjusted to combine the previously separate entities for presentation.control. The financial results of LD Holdings and


7



its subsidiaries were therefore combinedare consolidated with loanDepot, Inc.,Inc, and the consolidated net earnings or loss has beenare allocated to the noncontrolling interest to reflect the entitlement of the Continuing LLC Members.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include all of the assets, liabilities, and results of operations of the Company and consolidated variable interest entities (“VIEs”) in which the Company is the primary beneficiary. VIEs are entities that have a total equity investment at risk that is insufficient to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support, whose equity investors at risk lack the ability to control the entity's activities, or is structured with non-substantive voting rights. The Company evaluates its associations with VIEs, both at inception and when there is a change in circumstance that requires reconsideration, to determine if the Company is the primary beneficiary and consolidation is required. A primary beneficiary is defined as a variable interest holder that has a controlling financial interest. A controlling financial interest requires both: (a) the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the VIEs’ economic performance, and (b) the obligation to absorb losses or receive benefits of a VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE. The Company has not provided financial or other support during the periods presented to any VIE that it was not previously contractually required to provide. Other entities that the Company does not consolidate, but for which it has significant influence over operating and financial policies, are accounted for using the equity method. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Certain items in prior periods were reclassified to conform to the current presentation. AsTo conform to the current period presentation, servicing expense on the consolidated statements of March 31, 2021, financing lease obligations are now included as partoperations includes subservicing expense and in-house servicing expense.

The Company has evaluated subsequent events for recognition or disclosure through the date of accounts payable, accrued expensesthis report and other liabilities.has not identified any recordable or disclosable events that were not already reported in these consolidated financial statements or notes thereto.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. Management has


7



made significant estimates in certain areas, including determining the fair value of loans held for sale, servicing rights, derivative assets and derivative liabilities, trading securities, awards granted under the incentive equity plan, assets acquired and liabilities assumed in business combinations, and determining the loan loss obligation on sold loans.loans and MSRs, and goodwill impairment. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Non-controlling interests

loanDepot, Inc. is a holding company and its sole material asset is an equity interest in LD Holdings. LD Holdings continues to be a holding company and has no material assets other than its equity interests in its direct subsidiaries consisting of a 99.99% ownership in LDLLC (the majority asset of the group), and 100% equity ownership in ART, LDSS, and Mello. loanDepot, Inc. is the sole managing member of LD Holdings, and indirectly operates and controls all of LD Holdings’ business and affairs and consolidates the financial results of LD Holdings and its subsidiaries. The financial results of LD Holdings and its subsidiaries are consolidated with loanDepot, Inc., and the consolidated net earnings or loss will be allocated to the noncontrolling interest to reflect the entitlement of the Continuing LLC Members.

Income Taxes

The Company’s provision for income taxes is made for current and deferred income tax on pretax net income adjusted for permanent and temporary differences based on enacted tax laws and applicable statutory tax rates. The Company accounts for interest and penalties associated with income tax obligations as a component of income tax expense.

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for future tax consequences attributable to differences between the consolidated financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates for the periods in which the differences are expected to reverse. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the change. Deferred tax assets are recorded in prepaid expenses and other assets on the consolidated balance sheets. Deferred tax liabilities are recorded in accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets.

Following the IPO and Reorganization, the Company’s purchase of Holdco Units and any future exchanges of Holdco Units for cash or Class A Common Stock are expected to result in increases to the Company’s allocable tax basis in its assets. These increases in tax basis are expected to increase (for tax purposes) depreciation and amortization deductions allocable to the Company, and therefore reduce the amount of tax that the Company would otherwise be required to pay in the future. As a result, the Company has entered into a TRA with Parthenon Stockholders and certain Continuing LLC Members, whereby loanDepot, Inc. will be obligated to pay such parties or their permitted assignees, 85% of the amount of cash tax savings, if any, in U.S. federal, state, and local taxes that loanDepot, Inc. realizes, or is deemed to realize as a result of future tax benefits from increases in tax basis. The TRA liability is accounted for as a contingent liability within accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets with amounts accrued when deemed probable and estimable.

The Company evaluates tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the Company’s tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely-than-not” of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax positions deemed to meet the more-likely than-not threshold of being sustained would be recorded as a tax benefit in the current period.

Stock-Based Compensation

Effective upon the completion of the IPO, the Company adopted the loanDepot, Inc. 2021 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “2021 Plan”). The 2021 Plan allows for the grant of stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units (“RSUs”), and stock appreciation rights. There are currently only RSUs granted under the 2021 Plan. The Company uses the grant-date fair value of equity awards to determine the compensation cost associated with each award. Compensation cost for service-based equity awards is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period. Compensation cost for awards with only service conditions that have graded vesting schedules is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for the entire award such that compensation cost recognized at any date is at least equal to the portion of the grant-date value of the award that is vested at that date. Expense is reduced for actual forfeitures as they occur. The cost of stock-based compensation is recorded to personnel expense.


8



Earnings per share

Basic net income per common share is calculated using the two-class method. The two-class method is an earnings allocation formula that determines earnings per share for each share of common stock and participating security according to dividends declared (distributed earnings) and participation rights in undistributed earnings. Distributed and undistributed earnings are allocated between common and participating security shareholders based on their respective rights to receive dividends. According to the Company’s certificate of incorporation, the holders of Class A common stock and Class D common stock are entitled to share equally, on a per share basis, in dividends and other distributions of cash, property or shares of stock of the Company as may be declared by the board of directors.

Diluted net income per common share is calculated using the more dilutive of either the treasury stock method or the two-class method. The dilutive calculation considers common stock issuable under the assumed conversion of Class C common stock to Class A common stock as well as restricted stock units granted under the Corporation’s stock plans using the treasury stock method, if dilutive.


Concentration of Risk

The Company has concentrated its credit risk for cash by maintaining deposits in several financial institutions, which may at times exceed amounts covered by insurance provided by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”). The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes it is not exposed to any significant credit risk related to cash.

Due to the nature of the mortgage lending industry, changes in interest rates may significantly impact revenue from originating mortgages and subsequent sales of loans to investors, which are the primary source of income for the Company. The Company originates mortgage loans on property located throughout the United States, with loans originated for property located in California totaling approximately 36%23% of total loan originations for the threesix months ended March 31, 2021.June 30, 2022.

The Company sells mortgage loans to various third-party investors. Three investors accounted for 47%32%, 33%27%, and 13%19% of the Company’s loan sales for the threesix months ended March 31, 2021.June 30, 2022. No other investors accounted for more than 5% of the loan sales for the threesix months ended March 31, 2021.June 30, 2022.

The Company funds loans through warehouse and other lines of credit. As of March 31, 2021, 23%June 30, 2022, 14% and 9%15% of the Company's warehouse lines were payable to two separate lenders.


NOTE 2 – RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

    In September 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-15, “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer's Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract.” ASU 2018-15 was issued to align the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software (and hosting arrangements that include an internal use software license). The ASU was effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of this guidance on January 1, 2020 did not have a significant effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements given that (1) the changes under the ASU generally align with our existing accounting treatment of implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract and (2) the Company has not incurred a material amount of implementation costs in a hosting arrangement.

In December 2019, FASB issued ASU 2019-12, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes.” The amendments in ASU 2019-12 simplify the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles in ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes related to the approach for intraperiod tax allocation, the methodology for calculating income taxes in an interim period, and the recognition of deferred tax liabilities for outside basis differences. The new guidance also simplifies aspects of the accounting for franchise taxes and enacted changes in tax laws or rates and clarifies

the accounting for transactions that result in a step-up in the tax basis of goodwill. The guidance clarifies that single-member limited liability companies and similar disregarded entities that are not subject to income tax are not required to recognize an allocation of consolidated income tax expense in their separate financial statements, but they could elect to do so. This ASU was effective for public business entities for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2020. The adoption of this guidance on January 1, 2021 did not have a significant effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting,” which provided optional guidance for a limited period of time to ease the potential burden in accounting for (or recognizing the benefits of) reference rate reform on financial reporting. The amendments in ASU 2020-04 are elective and apply to all entities, subject to meeting certain criteria, that have contract, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. In January 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-01 to clarify that certain optional expedients and exceptions in Topic 848 for contract modifications and hedge accounting apply to derivatives that are affected by the discounting transition. This guidance is effective upon issuance and allows application to contract changes as early as January 1, 2020. The Company is in the process of reviewing its warehouse and other lines of credit and debt obligations that use LIBOR as the reference rate and is currently evaluating the potential impact that the adoption of this ASU will have on the consolidated financial statements.



NOTE 32 – FAIR VALUE

The Company's consolidated financial statements include assets and liabilities that are measured based on their estimated fair values.

(1)The Company estimates the fair value of MSRs using an option-adjusted spread (“OAS”) model, which projects MSR cash flows over multiple interest rate scenarios in conjunction with the Company’s prepayment model, and then discounts these cash flows at risk-adjusted rates.
(2)Weighted average inputs are based on the committed amounts for IRLCs and the UPB of the underlying loans for servicing rights.

Financial Statement Items Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis

The Company did not have any material assets or liabilities that were recorded at fair value on a non-recurring basis as of March 31, 2021June 30, 2022 or December 31, 2020.2021.

NOTE 43 – BALANCE SHEET NETTING

Certain derivatives, loan warehouse and repurchase agreements are subject to master netting arrangements or similar agreements. In certain circumstances the Company may elect to present certain financial assets, liabilities, and related collateral subject to master netting arrangements in a net position on the consolidated balance sheets. The Company has elected to present net derivative assets and liabilities obtained from (or posted to) its counterparties when subject to a master netting arrangement that is legally enforceable on all counterparties in the event of default.

The table below represents financial assets and liabilities that are subject to master netting arrangements or similar agreements categorized by financial instrument, together with corresponding financial instruments and corresponding collateral received or pledged. Warehouse and other lines of credit and secured debt obligations were secured by sufficient collateralfinancial instruments with fair value that exceeded the liability amount recorded on the consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 2021June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2020,2021, respectively.

Sensitivities are hypothetical changes in fair value and cannot be extrapolated because the relationship of changes in assumptions to changes in fair value may not be linear. Also, the effect of a variation in a particular assumption is calculated without changing any other assumption, whereas a change in one factor may result in changes to another. Accordingly, no assurance can be given that actual results would be consistent with the results of these estimates. As a result, actual future changes in servicing rights values may differ significantly from those displayed above.



NOTE 76 – DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES

Derivatives instruments utilized by the Company primarily include interest rate lock commitments, forward salessale contracts, MBS put options, put options on treasuries, and interest rate swap futures. Derivative financial instruments are recognized as assets or liabilities and are measured at fair value. The Company accounts for derivatives as free-standing derivatives and does not designate any derivative financial instruments for hedge accounting. All derivative financial instruments are recognized on the consolidated balance sheets at fair value with changes in the fair values being reported in current period earnings. The Company does not use derivative financial instruments for purposes other than in support of its risk management activities. Refer to Note 1- Description of Business, Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Note 3-2- Fair Value for further details on derivatives in the 20202021 Form 10-K.

Because many of the Company’s current derivative agreements are not exchange-traded, the Company is exposed to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the counterparty to the agreements. The Company controls this risk through credit monitoring procedures including financial analysis, dollar limits and other monitoring procedures. The notional amount of the contracts does not represent the Company’s exposure to credit loss.

The Company performs its annual assessment of possible impairment of goodwill and intangible assets as of December 31, or more frequently if events and circumstances indicate that impairment may have occurred. The Company compares the fair value of each reporting unit with its carrying amount, including goodwill. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to that excess.

During the three months ended June 30, 2022, the Company performed an interim impairment test due to the impact of rising interest rates on the mortgage industry and the Company’s recent stock performance. The evaluation of goodwill included a market based and income based approach. Based upon the results of this evaluation, an impairment charge of $40.7 million was recognized, driven predominantly by a significant decline in our market capitalization.

In addition to goodwill, the Company had other intangible assets related to trademarks associated with prior acquisitions. The Company reviews intangible assets for possible impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that

carrying amounts may not be recoverable. The factors outlined in the goodwill impairment discussion above triggered an interim impairment evaluation of other intangible assets during the three months ended June 30, 2022. Based upon the results of this evaluation, an impairment charge of $1.4 million was recognized.

Escrow Services

In conducting its operations, the Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiaries, LD EscrowLDSS and ACT, routinely hold customers' assets in escrow pending completion of real estate financing transactions. These amounts are maintained in segregated bank accounts and are offset with the related liabilities resulting in no amounts reported in the accompanying


34



consolidated balance sheets. In the fourth quarter of 2019, LD Escrow transitioned its operations to LDSS. The balances held for the Company’s customers totaled $350.2$14.7 million and $377.3$21.1 million at March 31, 2021June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2020,2021, respectively.

Legal Proceedings

The Company is a defendant in, or a party to, a number of legal actions and proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business. In some of these actions and proceedings, claims for monetary damages are asserted against the Company. These matters include actions alleging improper lending practices, improper servicing, quiet title actions, improper foreclosure practices, violations of consumer protection laws, etc. and on account of consumer bankruptcies. In many of these actions, the Company may not be the real party of interest (because the Company is not the servicer of the loan or the holder of the note) but it may appear in the pleadings because it is in the chain of title to property over which there may be a dispute. Such matters are turned over tomay be indemnified and managed by the servicer ofappropriate party, which is generally the loan for those loans the Company does not service.Company’s subservicer. In other cases, such


32



as lien avoidance cases brought in bankruptcy, the Company is insured by title insurance, and the case is turned over to the title insurer who tenders ourthe Company’s defense. In some of these actions and proceedings, claims for monetary damages are asserted against the Company. In view of the inherent difficulty of predicting the outcome of such legal actions and proceedings, the Company generally cannot predict what the eventual outcome of the pending matters will be, what the timing of the ultimate resolution of these matters will be, or what the eventual loss related to each pending matter may be, if any.

The Company seeks to resolve all litigation and regulatory matters in the manner management believes is in the best interest of the Company and contests liability, allegations of wrongdoing, and, where applicable, the amount of damages or scope of any penalties or other relief sought as appropriate in each pending matter. On at least a quarterly basis, the Company assesses its liabilities and contingencies in connection with outstanding legal and regulatory proceedings utilizing the latest information available. Any estimated loss is subject to significant judgment and is based upon currently available information, a variety of assumptions, and known and unknown uncertainties. Where available information indicates that it is probable a liability has been incurred and the Company can reasonably estimate the amount of the loss, an accrued liability is established. The actual costs of resolving these proceedings may be substantially higher or lower than the amounts accrued.

The Company currently is defending 2 putative Telephone Consumer Protection Act (“TCPA”) class actions. The Company denies the allegations in these cases and is vigorously defending both matters. In one matter, one of three claims is now defunct because of a recent Supreme Court ruling addressing the same issue pled in this matter. The Company intends to file dispositive motions to dismiss the remaining claims, which, if granted, would result in a finding of no liability and dismissal of the action. The Company is also engaged in discussions to settle the remaining claims on an individual basis. In the second matter, the Company intends to file a motion to defeat class certification and also is engaged in settlement negotiations. Given the lawsuits are at the early stages and not yet at the class certification stage, the Company is unable to estimate a range of possible loss with any degree of reasonable certainty.Employment Litigation

On December 24, 2020, the Company received a demand letter from one of the senior members of its operations team alleging, among other things, loan origination noncompliance and various employment related claims, including hostile work environment and gender discrimination, with unspecified damages. The Company’s investigation ofexecutive has since resigned her position with the claims is ongoing.Company. The parties have agreed to participateparticipated in pre-litigation mediation whichin May 2021. The parties did not resolve the matter at mediation and a complaint was filed with the Superior Court of the State of California, County of Orange on September 21, 2021 and an amended complaint was filed on December 21, 2021. In response, on February 2, 2022 the Company anticipates will take placefiled a demurrer to the complaint with the Superior Court of the State of California, County of Orange, for failing to state facts sufficient to constitute a cause of action while still vigorously denying the claims within the complaint. On March 24, 2022, the plaintiff filed her opposition to loanDepot’s demurrer. On March 29, 2022, the Company filed its reply to Plaintiff’s opposition. A hearing was held on the Company’s demurrer on May 12, 2022, at the Superior Court of the State of California, County of Orange. The court sustained the Company’s demurrer in late-May 2021. full. On June 30, 2022, the Company filed its answer and affirmative defenses to the amended complaint. The plaintiff seeks damages in excess of $75 million. The Company believes this lawsuit is without merit and intends to vigorously defend against it.

While the Company’s management does not believe these allegations have merit, should the executive file a formal lawsuit against the Company, itdefending such allegations could result in substantial costs and a diversion of management’s attention and resources.

The ultimate outcome of the other legal proceedings is uncertain, and the amount of any future potential loss is not considered probable or estimable. The Company will incur defense costs and other expenses in connection with these legal proceedings. If the final resolution of any legal proceedings is unfavorable, it could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business and financial condition.

Based on the Company’s current understanding of these pending legal actions and proceedings, management does not believe that judgments or settlements arising from pending or threatened legal matters, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position, operating results or cash flows of the Company. However, unfavorable resolutions could affect the consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows for the years in which they are resolved.

Compliance Matters

During the fourth quarter of 2019, an increase in mortgage originations resulted in an increase in title orders and loan settlements, creating personnel and operational pressures within the Company. The Company increased staffing, adjusted schedules, and enhanced processes, but still experienced constraints in order to meet settlement timelines. Specifically, there was an increase in the number of days between receipt of funds from the originating lender and disbursement of those funds to pay off those loan transactions. In 2019, the Company initiated a review to refund consumers for any overage in per diem charges due to delays based on loan program and state property requirements. The Company established an accrual of $4.8 million as of December 31, 2019 for its estimate of the remaining refunds. As of January 2021, the Company had completed its review and processed refunds that totaled $4.2 million of which $3.9 million were completed throughout 2020 and the remaining $0.3 million in January 2021. As a result of this event and in order to prevent recurrence, the Company has decreased the number of states in which they accept orders in order to manage pipelines and routinely review key performance indicators along with pipeline estimates from their customers.

Regulatory Requirements

The Company is subject to various capital requirements by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (“HUD”); lenders of the warehouse lines of credit; and secondary markets investors. Failure to maintain minimum capital requirements could result in the inability to participate in HUD-assisted mortgage insurance programs, to borrow funds from warehouse line lenders or to sell or service mortgage loans. As of March 31, 2021,June 30, 2022, the Company was in compliance with its selling and servicing capital requirements.

Commitments to Extend Credit



33



The Company enters into IRLCs with customers who have applied for residential mortgage loans and meet certain credit and underwriting criteria. These commitments expose the Company to market risk if interest rates change and the loan is not economically hedged or committed to an investor. The Company is also exposed to credit loss if the loan is originated and not sold to an investor and the customer does not perform. The collateral upon extension of credit typically consists of a first deed of trust in the mortgagor’s residential property. Commitments to originate loans do not necessarily reflect future cash requirements as some commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon. Total commitments to originate loans as of March 31, 2021June 30, 2022 and December 31, 20202021 approximated $24.5$7.7 billion and $31.5$12.7 billion, respectively. These loan commitments are treated as derivatives and are carried at fair value, refer to Note 7-6- Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedging Activities for further information on derivatives.

Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this Form 10-Q and Part I, Item 1A "Risk Factors" in our 20202021 Form 10-K. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein have the meanings set forth in the our Form 10-K.
Overview

loanDepot is a customer-centric and technology-enabled residential mortgage platform. We launched our business in 2010 to provide mortgage loan solutions to consumers who were dissatisfied with the services offered by banks and other traditional market participants. Since our inception, we have significantly expanded our origination platform both in terms of size and capabilities. Our primary sources of revenue are derived from the origination of conventional and government mortgage loans, servicing conventional and government mortgage loans, and providing a growing suite of ancillary services.

The Company's common stock began trading on Thethe New York Stock Exchange on February 11, 2021 under the ticker symbol "LDI." ThisThe initial public offering consisted of 3,850,000 shares of Class A common stock, $0.001 par value per share, at an offering price of $14.00 per share, pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-1.

A summary of our critical accounting policies and estimates is included in Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates.
Key Factors Influencing Our Results of Operations
Market and Economic Environment
According to the Federal Reserve, residential mortgages represent the largest segment of the broader United States consumer finance market. In 2020, annual one-to-four family residential mortgage origination volume reached $3.8 trillion, with an average volume of $2.3 trillion over the last five years. According to the Mortgage Bankers Association, there was approximately $11.3 trillion of residential mortgage debt outstanding in the United States as of March 31, 2021 that is forecasted to increase to $12.4 trillion by the end of 2022.
The consumer lending market and the associated loan origination volumes for mortgage loans are influenced by interest rates and economic conditions. While borrower demand for consumer credit has typically remained strong in most economic environments, general market conditions, including the interest rate environment, unemployment rates, home price appreciation and consumer confidence may affect borrower willingness to seek financing and investor desire and ability to invest in loans. For example, a significant interest rate increase or rise in unemployment could cause potential borrowers to defer seeking financing as they wait for interest rates to stabilize or the general economic environment to improve. Additionally, if the economy weakens and actual or expected default rates increase, loan investors may postpone or reduce their investments in loan products.
The volume of mortgage loan originations associated with home purchases is generally less affected by interest rate fluctuations and more sensitive to broader economic factors as well as the overall strength of the economy, housing prices, and housing prices.interest rate fluctuations. Increases in interest rates may affect affordability and the ability for potential home buyers to qualify for a mortgage loan. Purchase mortgage loan origination volume can be subject to seasonal trends as home sales typically rise during the spring and summer seasons and decline in the fall and winter seasons. This is somewhat offset by purchase loan originations sourced from our joint ventures which experience their highest level of activity during November and December as home builders focus on completing and selling homes prior to year-end. Seasonality has less of an impact on mortgage loan refinancing volumes, which are primarily driven by fluctuations in mortgage loan interest rates.


39



Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic
The financial markets demonstrated significant volatility due to the economic impacts of COVID-19 as interest rates fell to historic lows during 2020 which resulted in increased mortgage refinance originations and favorable margins during 2020. Our efficient and scalable platform has enabled us to respond quickly to the increased market demand. We have highlighted below the key steps we have undertaken since the onset of the pandemic to position our platform for continued success:
Maintained higher liquidity levels from an increase in cash from retained earnings.
Increased our total loan funding capacity with our current lending partners.
Stepped up protocols related to verification of key metrics such as employment and income to ensure the highest quality underwriting standards are maintained.
Transitioned our workforce to working remotely as of March 19, 2020.
As a servicer, we are required to advance principal and interest to the investor for up to four months on GSE backed mortgages and longer on other government agency backed mortgages on behalf of clients who have entered a forbearance plan. As of March 31, 2021, approximately 1.4%, or $1.9 billion UPB, of our servicing portfolio was in active forbearance. While these advance requirements may be significant at higher levels of forbearance, we believe we are very well-positioned in terms of our liquidity. We will continue evaluating the capital markets as well, which would further supplement our liquidity should the need arise.
Fluctuations in Interest Rates
Our mortgage loan refinancing volumes (and to a lesser degree, our purchase volumes), balance sheetsheets, and results of operations are influenced by changes in interest rates and how we effectively manage the related interest rate risk. As interest rates decline, mortgage loan refinance volumes tend to increase, while an increasing interest rate environment may cause a decrease in refinance volumes and purchase volumes. In addition, the majority of our assets are subject to interest rate risk, including LHFS, which consist of mortgage loans held on our consolidated balance sheetsheets for a short period of time after


36



origination until we are able to sell them, IRLCs, servicing rights and mandatory trades, forward sales contracts, interest rate swap futures and put options that we enter into to manage interest rate risk created by IRLCs and uncommitted LHFS. We refer to such mandatory trades, forward sales contracts, interest rate swap futures and put options collectively as “Hedging Instruments.” As interest rates increase, our LHFS and IRLCs generally decrease in value while our Hedging Instruments utilized to hedge against interest rate risk typically increase in value. Rising interest rates cause our expected mortgage loan servicing revenues to increase due to a decline in mortgage loan prepayments which extends the average life of our servicing portfolio and increases the value of our servicing rights. Conversely, as interest rates decline, our LHFS and IRLCs generally increase in value while our Hedging Instruments decrease in value. In a declining interest rate environment, borrowers tend to refinance their mortgage loans, which increases prepayment speed and causes our expected mortgage loan servicing revenues to decrease, which reduces the average life of our servicing portfolio and decreases the value of our servicing rights. The changes in fair value of our servicing rights are recorded as unrealized gains and losses in changes in fair value of servicing rights, net, in our consolidated statements of operations.

When interest rates rise, rate and term refinancings become less attractive to consumers after a historically long period of low interest rates. However, rising interest rates are also indicative of overall economic growth and inflation that shouldmay create more opportunities with respect to cash-out refinancings. In addition, inflation which may result from increases in asset prices and stronger economicthese periods of growth (leading to higher consumer confidence) typically should generate more purchase-focused transactions requiring loans and greaterloans. Sustained periods of home price appreciation should result in increasing opportunities for home equity loans,loans.

Current Market Conditions
According to the MBA’s Mortgage Finance Forecast published July 18, 2022, there was approximately $13.0 trillion of residential mortgage debt outstanding in the United States at June 30, 2022 which we expect mayis forecasted to increase to $13.8 trillion by June 30, 2023. Annual one-to-four family residential mortgage origination volumes are expected to decrease by 44% to $2.2 trillion by December 31, 2023. The primary driver of this decrease is refinance volume, which is expected to decrease by $1.8 trillion, partially offset at leastby a $58.0 billion expected increase in part, any declinepurchase volume. The significant reductions in rateoverall mortgage transaction volumes and term refinancingshigher interest rates have resulted in and are expected to continue to result in a rising interest rate environment.significant decrease in our mortgage production activities, which, as described below, has adversely impacted, and is expected to continue to impact, our results of operations, liquidity and financial condition.
Due to current market conditions, we have implemented the Vision 2025 plan. The plan’s four primary elements are to: 1) Increase focus on purchase transactions while serving increasingly diverse communities across the country, 2) Execute previously announced growth-generating initiatives, 3) Centralize management of loan originations and loan fulfillment to enhance quality and effectiveness, and 4) Right-size our cost structure.

As part of the plan, we have also made the determination to exit the wholesale business. This will allow us to further reduce expenses, consolidate operations, increase margins, and better meet our goals of becoming a purpose driven organization with direct customer engagement throughout the entire lending process.

Key Performance Indicators
We manage and assess the performance of our business by evaluating a variety of metrics. Selected key performance metrics include loan originations and sales and servicing metrics.
Loan Origination and Sales
Loan originations and sales by volume and units are a measure of how successful we are at growing sales of mortgage loan products and a metric used by management in an attempt to isolate how effectively we are performing. We believe that


40



originations and sales are an indicator of our market penetration in mortgage loans and that this provides useful information because it allows investors to better assess the underlying growth ratestrength of our core business. Loan originations and sales include brokered loan originations not funded by the Company.us. We enter into IRLCs to originate loans, at specified interest rates, with customers who have applied for a mortgage and meet certain credit and underwriting criteria. We believe the volume of our IRLCs is another measure of our growth in originations.overall market share.
Gain on sale margin represents the sumtotal of (i) gain on saleorigination and originationsale of loans, net, and (ii) origination income, net, divided by total loan originations fororigination volume during period. Gain on the period.origination and sale of loans, net was adjusted to exclude the

change in fair value of forward sale contracts, including pair-offs, hedging MSRs, which are now included in the change in fair value of servicing rights, net on the consolidated statements of operations. We determined that this change would more appropriately reflect the hedged item and better align with industry practices. Gain on origination and sale of loans, net and change in fair value of servicing rights, net, in the current and prior periods along with the related disclosures have been adjusted to reflect this reclassification.
Pull through weighted gain on sale margin represents the total of (i) gain on origination and sale of loans, net, and (ii) origination income, net, divided by the pull through weighted rate lock volume. Pull through weighted rate lock volume is the unpaid principal balance of loans subject to interest rate lock commitments, net of a pull-through factor for the loan funding probability.
Servicing Metrics
Servicing metrics include the unpaid principal balance of our servicing portfolio and servicing portfolio units, which represent the number of mortgage loan customers we service. We believe that the net additions to our portfolio and number of units are indicators of the growth of our mortgage loans serviced and our servicing income, but may be offset by sales from time to time, of servicing rights.

The results for the three months ended June 30, 2022 reflected an increase in mortgage rates which resulted in a decrease in our profit margins. The decrease of Components of Results of Operations
Our primary sources of revenue include$250.1 million, or 951.6% in net income is primarily from a $545.9 million decrease in gain on the origination and sale of loans, net, partially offset by a $188.7 million decrease in total expenses. The increased interest rate environment resulted in a decrease in margins and volume of mortgage loan originations and IRLCs from the comparable 2021 period.

Revenues
Net Interest Income. Net interest income is earned on LHFS offset by interest expense on amounts borrowed under warehouse and other lines of credit to finance such loans until sold. The increase in net interest income reflected higher yields on LHFS, partially offset by a $3.0 billion decrease in the average balance of LHFS.

Gain on Origination and Sale of Loans, Net. Gain on origination and sale of loans, net, was comprised of the following components:

•     (Discount) premium from loan sales represent the net premium or discount we receive or pay in excess of the loan principal amount and certain fees charged by investors upon sale of the loans. The decrease in premiums from loan sales was a result of lower volume and margins due to increasing interest rates subsequent to loan origination income, and servicing fee income. Changes induring the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to decreasing rates during the three months ended June 30, 2021.
•    Servicing rights represent the fair value of our LHFS, servicing rights from loans sold on a servicing-retained basis. The 57.8% decrease in servicing rights was driven by the 65.9% decrease in volume of loans sold on a servicing-retained basis.
Fair value gains on IRLC and derivatives also impactLHFS decreased $135.7 million or 58.5%. The decrease in gains was primarily due to the decrease in volume, partially offset by increasing interest rates during the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to decreasing rates during the three months ended June 30, 2021.
•     Fair value gains on Hedging Instruments represent the net unrealized gains or losses on mandatory trades, forward sales contracts, interest rate swap futures, and put options hedging IRLCs and LHFS as well as realized gains or losses from pair-off settlements. The increase of $663.9 million reflects changes in interest rates during the period.
Discount points, rebates, and lender paid costs represent discount points collected, rebates paid to borrowers, and lender paid costs for the origination of loans (including broker fee compensation paid to independent wholesale brokers and brokerage fees paid to our revenues. joint ventures for referred loans). The increase of $100.4 million or 350.9% was driven by an increase in discount points collected and a decrease in lender paid costs.
Provision for loan loss obligation related to loans sold represents the provision to establish our estimated liability for loan losses that we may experience as a result of a breach of representation or warranty provided to the purchasers or insurers of loans that we have sold. The increase of $82.9 millionwas driven by increased market rates which have reduced the fair value of loans subject to repurchase that were originated in prior periods at lower interest rates.
Origination Income, Net. Origination income, net, reflects the fees that we earn, net of lender credits we pay, from originating loans. Origination income includes loan origination fees, processing fees, underwriting fees, and other fees collected from the borrower at the time of funding. Lender credits typically include rebates or concessions to borrowers for certain loan origination costs.The $53.5 million or 57.8% decrease in origination income was the result of a 53.6% decrease in loan origination volumes.
Servicing Fee Income. Servicing fee income reflects contractual servicing fees and ancillary and other fees (including late charges) related to the servicing of mortgage loans. The increase of $22.6 million or 23.8% in servicing income was the result of an increase of$20.5 billion in the average UPB of our servicing portfolio due to an increase in servicing-retained loan sales.
Change in Fair Value of Servicing Rights, Net. Change in fair value of servicing rights, net includes (i) fair value gains or losses net of Hedging Instrument gains or losses; (ii) collection/realization of cash flows, which includes principal amortization and prepayments; and (iii) realized gains or losses on the sales of servicing rights. Change in fair value of servicing rights, net

was a loss of $33.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to $145.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021; the decrease in loss reflects $80.8 million in fair value gains, net of hedging losses and a $39.4 million decrease in the collection and realization of cash flows from lower prepayments due to the increasing rate environment for the three months ended June 30, 2022.
Other Income. Other income reflects theincludes our pro rata share of the net earnings from our joint ventures and fee income from title, escrow and settlement services for mortgage loan transactions performed by LDSS, and fair value changes in our trading securities.The decrease of $21.8 million or 57.1% was primarily the result of a decrease of $18.4 million in escrow and title fee income due to decreased mortgage loan settlement services and fair value losses of $6.3 million on our trading securities due to the increasing rate environment.
Expenses
Personnel Expense. Personnel expense reflects employee compensation related to salaries, commissions, incentive compensation, benefits, and other employee costs. The $173.6 million or 36.9% decrease was the result of a decrease of $131.8 million in commissions due to the decreases in loan origination volumes and decreases in salaries and benefits expense of $41.7 million as a result of reduced headcount. As of June 30, 2022, we had 8,540 employees compared to 11,572 employees as of June 30, 2021, representing a decrease of 26.2%.
Marketing and Advertising Expense. Marketing and advertising expense primarily reflects online advertising costs, including fees paid to search engines, television, print and radio, distribution partners, master service agreements with brokers, and desk rental agreements with realtors. The $53.3 million or 46.7% decrease in marketing expense was driven by a reduction in national television campaigns and purchased leads.
Servicing Expense. Servicing expense reflects in-house servicing costs as well as amounts that we pay to our sub-servicers to service our mortgage loan servicing portfolio.The $16.5 million or 60.6% decrease in subservicing expense reflects our shift to in-house servicing.
Other Interest Expense. The $11.9 million or 55.8% increase in other interest expense was the result of a $1.0 billion increase in average outstanding debt obligations primarily resulting from a $942.7 million increase in MSR facilities.
Income Tax Expense (Benefit). Benefit for income taxes was $28.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to expense of $4.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 reflects net losses, partially offset by non-deductible impairment of goodwill and other intangible assets for the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to net income for the three months ended June 30, 2021.

services performed by our consolidated subsidiary, LDSS. Net interest income is interest income earned on our LHFS, net of interest expense on amounts borrowed under warehouse lines to finance such loans until sold.
Our primary expenses include those for personnel, marketing and advertising, direct origination, subservicing fees paid to subservicers of our MSR portfolio, and other general and administrative expenses such as professional fees, data processing, and communication expenses.

Based upon the results of these evaluations, a non-cash impairment charge of $42.1 million was recognized to write off the balance of goodwill and other intangible assets. The impairment charge was driven predominantly by stock market valuations and the price of our common stock, which adversely impacted the valuation of our goodwill and other intangible assets as of June 30, 2022.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Liquidity

Our liquidity reflects our ability to meet our current obligations (including our operating expenses and, when applicable, the retirement of our debt and margin calls relating to our Hedging Instruments, warehouse and other lines of credit, and Secured Credit Facilities),secured credit facilities, fund new originations and purchases, meet servicing requirements, and make investments as we identify them. We forecast the need to have adequate liquid funds available to operate and grow our business. As of March 31, 2021,June 30, 2022, unrestricted cash and cash equivalents were $630.5$954.9 million and committed and uncommitted available capacity under our warehouse and other lines of credit was $2.0$5.5 billion.
We fund substantially all of the mortgage loans we close through borrowings under our warehouse lines. Given the broad impactand other lines of the COVID-19 pandemic on the financial markets, our future ability to borrow money to fund our current and future loan production is unknown.credit. Our mortgage origination liquidity could also be affected as our lenders reassess their exposure to the mortgage origination industry and either curtail access to uncommitted mortgage warehouse financing capacity or impose higher costs to access such capacity. Our liquidity may be further constrained as there may be less demand by investors to acquire our mortgage loans in the secondary market. Even if such demand exists, we face a substantially higher repurchase risk as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic stemming from our clients inability to repay the underlying loans. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, we have increased our cash position and total loan funding capacity with our current and new lending partners.
As a servicer, we are required to advance principal and interest to the investor for up to four months on GSE backed mortgages and longer on other government agency backed mortgages on behalf of clients who have entered a forbearance plan. As of March 31, 2021,June 30, 2022, approximately 1.4%0.4%, or $1.9 billion$587.8 million UPB, of our servicing portfolio was in active forbearance compared to 2.4%, or $2.4 billion as of December 31, 2020.forbearance. While these advance requirements may be significant athave decreased from the higher levels during 2020, the economic impact of COVID-19 could continue to result in additional advance requirements related to forbearance we believe we are very well-positioned in terms of our liquidity. In September 2020, we entered into a variable funding note facility for the financing of servicing advance receivables with respect to residential mortgage loans serviced by us on behalf of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. We will continue evaluating the capital markets as well, which would further supplement our liquidity should the need arise.plans.

Sources and Uses of Cash
Our primary sources of liquidity have been as follows: (i) funds obtained from our warehouse lines;and other lines of credit; (ii) proceeds from debt obligations; (iii) proceeds received from the sale and securitization of loans; (iv) proceeds from the sale of servicing rights; (v) loan fees from the origination of loans; (vi) servicing fees; (vii) title and escrow fees from settlement services; (viii) real estate referral fees; and (ix) interest income from LHFS.
Our primary uses of funds for liquidity have included the following: (i) funding mortgage loans; (ii) funding loan origination costs; (iii) payment of warehouse line haircuts required at loan origination; (iv) payment of interest expense on warehouse lines;and other lines of credit ; (v) payment of interest expense under debt obligations; (vi) payment of operating expenses; (vii) repayment of warehouse lines;and other lines of credit; (viii) repayment of debt obligations; (ix) funding of servicing advances; (x) margin calls on warehouse and other lines of credit or Hedging Instruments; (xi) payment of tax distributions and other amounts due to the holders of common units;Holdco Units; (xii) payments of cash dividends or distributions subject to the discretion of our board of directors, (xiii) repurchases of loans under representation and warranty breaches; (xiv) earnout payments from acquisitions; and (xv)(xiv) costs relating to servicing and subservicing.
We rely on the secondary mortgage market as a source of long-term capital to support our mortgage lending operations. Approximately 93%78% of the mortgage loans that we originated during the threesix months ended March 31, 2021June 30, 2022 were sold in the


49



secondary mortgage market to Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac or, in the case of MBS guaranteed by Ginnie Mae, are mortgage loans insured or guaranteed by the FHA or VA. We also sell loans to many private investors.

At this time, we currently believe that there are no material market trends that would affect our access to long-term or short-term borrowingscash on hand, as well as the sources of liquidity described above, will be sufficient to maintain our current operations or that would likely cause us to cease to be in compliance with applicable covenants for our indebtedness or that would inhibit our ability toand fund our loan operations and capital commitments for the next twelve months. However, should those trends change, we believewill continue to review our liquidity needs in light of current and anticipated mortgage market conditions and we could retain less or sell additional servicing rights, scale back growth or take other actionshave taken various steps to mitigate any significant increase in demands onalign our liquidity.cost structure with current and expected mortgage origination volumes.

 
Warehouse and Other Lines of Credit and Debt Obligations
Warehouse and other lines of credit are discussed in Note 9- Warehouse and Other Lines of Credit and debt obligations are discussed in Note 10- Debt Obligations of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements contained in Item 1.
Our lenders require us to comply with various financial covenants including tangible net worth, liquidity, leverage ratios and profitability. As a result of our second quarter losses, we were required to amend certain of our warehouse lines or amend and obtain waivers of profitability related financial covenants in certain of our debt obligations. We expect that we will need to further amend or obtain waivers during fiscal 2022 in order to maintain compliance with such financial covenants. Our lenders are not required to grant any such amendments, extensions or waivers and may determine not to do so. As of June 30, 2022, following certain amendments or waivers, we were in full compliance with all financial covenants. Although these financial covenants limit the amount of indebtedness that we may incur and affect our liquidity through minimum cash reserve requirements, we believe that these covenants currently provide us with sufficient flexibility to operate our business and obtain the financing necessary to achieve that purpose.
We finance most of our loan originations on a short-term basis using our warehouse lines.and other lines of credit. Under our warehouse lines,these facilities, we agree to transfer certain loans to our counterparties against the transfer of funds by them, with a simultaneous agreement by the counterparties to transfer the loans back to us at the date loans are sold, or on demand by us, against the transfer of funds from us. We do not recognize these transfers as sales for accounting purposes. We typically repurchase theOn average, loans are repurchased within 6 to 1519 days of funding. Our warehouse linesfacilities are generally short-term borrowings which mature in less thanwith original maturities between one year with the exception of ourand two years.

We utilize both committed and uncommitted loan funding facilities and we evaluate our needs under these facilities based on forecasted volume of loan originations and sales.
As of March 31, 2021,June 30, 2022, we had $10.3maintained revolving lines of credit with fourteen counterparties providing warehouse and securitization facilities with borrowing capacity totaling $9.9 billion of capacity under our warehouse lines, of which $3.4$3.1 billion was committed. Our $10.3$9.9 billion of capacity as of March 31, 2021June 30, 2022 was comprised of $8.7$6.1 billion with maturities staggered throughout 2021, $600.0 million maturing in 2022, $500.0 million$2.3 billion maturing in 2023, and $500.0 million$1.5 billion maturing in 2024. As of March 31, 2021, we maintained warehouse lines with fourteen counterparties. Our warehouse lines typically have terms of one year and are routinely renewed annually. As of March 31, 2021,June 30, 2022, we had $8.3$4.3 billion of borrowings outstanding under these facilities and $2.0$5.5 billion of additional availability under our facilities.
When we draw on theour warehouse lines,and securitization facilities we must pledge eligible loan collateral andcollateral. Our warehouse line providers require us to make a capital investment, or “haircut,“haircut.” upon financing the loans,loan, which is generally determined by the type of collateral provided and the warehouse line terms. Our warehouse line providers require a haircut based on product

types and the market value of the loans. The haircuts are normally recovered from sales proceeds. With the expected future increase in loan origination volumes, we will be required to use additional capital for haircuts and increase our restricted cash balances with our warehouse lenders. As of March 31, 2021,June 30, 2022, we had $69.8$90.8 million in restricted cash posted as additional collateral with our warehouse lenders and securitization facilities, as comparedfacilities.

The availability and cost of funds to us can vary depending on the typemarket conditions. From time to time, and subject to any applicable laws or regulations, we may take steps to reduce or repurchase our debt through redemptions, tender offers, cash purchases, prepayments, refinancing, exchange offers, open market or privately-negotiated transactions. The amount of loandebt, if any, that is being financedmay be reduced or the periodrepurchased will depend on various factors, such as market conditions, trading levels of time that a loan is transferred to our warehouse line counterparty. As of March 31, 2021, interest expense underdebt, our warehouse lines was generally based on 30-day LIBOR plus a margin and in some cases a minimum interest rate and certain commitment and utilization fees apply. Interest is generally payable monthly in arrears or on the repurchase date of a loan, and outstanding principal is payable upon receipt of loan sale proceeds or on the repurchase date of a loan. Outstanding principal related to a particular loan must also be repaid after the expiration of a contractual period of time or, if applicable, upon the occurrence of certain events of default with respect to the underlying loan.

Our ability to pay dividends depends on our receipt of cash dividends from our operating subsidiaries, which may further restrict our ability to pay dividends as a result of the laws of their jurisdiction of organization or agreements of our subsidiaries, including agreements governing our indebtedness. Future agreements may also limit our ability to pay dividends.
Margin CallsAs part of our balance sheet and capital management strategies, we suspended our regular quarterly dividend effective March 31, 2022 and for the foreseeable future.
Our warehouse lines, secured credit facilities, and certain derivative financial instruments contain margin call provisions that, under specific market conditions and terms, require us to transfer cash or, in some instances, additional assets in an amount sufficient to eliminate any margin deficit. Under our warehouse lines, secured credit facilities and certain derivative financial instruments, a margin deficit will generally result from any decline in the market value (as determined by the applicable lender) of the assets subject to the related financing agreement. Upon notice from the applicable lender, we will generally be required to satisfy the margin call on the day of such notice or within one business day thereafter, depending on the timing of the notice.

These facilities, which we refer to as gestation facilities, are a component of our financing strategy and are off-balance sheet arrangements.arrangements provided by certain warehouse lenders.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
We prepare our consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP, which requires us to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect: (i) the reported amounts of our assets and liabilities; (ii) the disclosure of our contingent assets and liabilities at the end of each reporting period; and (iii) the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during each reporting period. We continually evaluate these judgments, estimates and assumptions based on our own historical experience, knowledge and assessment of current business and other conditions and our expectations regarding the future based on available information which together form our basis for making judgments about matters that are not readily apparent from other sources. Since the use of estimates is an integral component of the financial reporting process, our actual results could differ from those estimates. Some of our accounting policies require a higher degree of judgment than others in their application. Our accounting policies are described in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements included in the Company's 20202021 Form 10-K. At December 31, 2020,2021, the most critical of these significant accounting policies were policies related to the fair value of financial instruments, loans held for sale, servicing rights, and derivative financial instruments, and loan repurchase reserve.instruments. As of the date of this report, there have been no significant changes to the Company's critical accounting policies or estimates.
When reading our consolidated financial statements, you should consider our selection of critical accounting policies, the judgment and other uncertainties affecting the application of such policies and the sensitivity of reported results to changes in conditions and assumptions.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures

To provide investors with information in addition to our results as determined by GAAP, we disclose Adjusted Total Revenue, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Diluted EPS, and Adjusted EBITDA ascertain non-GAAP measures.measures to assist investors in evaluating our financial results. We believe Adjusted Total Revenue, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Diluted EPS, and Adjusted EBITDAthese non-GAAP measures provide useful information to investors regarding our results of operations because each measure assists both investors and management in analyzing and benchmarking the performance and value of our business. They facilitate company-to-company operating performance comparisons by backing out potential differences caused by variations in hedging strategies, changes in valuations, capital structures (affecting net interest expense)expense on non-funding debt), taxation, the age and book depreciation of facilities (affecting relative depreciation expense) and, the amortization of intangibles, which may vary for different companies for reasons unrelated to operating performance, as well asand certain historical cost (benefit)or benefit items which may vary for different companies for reasons unrelated to operating performance. These non-GAAP measures are notinclude our Adjusted Total Revenue, Adjusted Net Income (Loss), Adjusted Diluted Earnings (Loss) Per Share, and Adjusted EBITDA (LBITDA). We exclude from each of these non-GAAP financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered as a substitute for revenue, net income, or any other operating performance measure calculated in accordance with GAAP, and may not be comparable to a similarly titled measure reported by other companies.

We define “Adjusted Total Revenue” as total revenues, net of the change in fair value of servicing rights and the related hedging gains and losses. We define “Adjusted Net Income” as tax-effected earnings before change in fair value of contingent consideration, stock compensation expense and management fees, IPO expense, and the change in fair value of MSRs net of theand related hedging gains and losses as they add volatility and the tax effects of those adjustments. We define “Adjusted Diluted EPS” as Adjusted Net Income divided by the diluted weighted average number of shares of Class A common stock and Class D common stock outstanding for the applicable period, which assumes the pro forma exchange of all outstanding Class C common shares for shares of Class A common stock. We define “Adjusted EBITDA” as earnings before interest expense and amortization of debt issuance costs on non-funding debt, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, change in fair value of MSRs, netare not indicative of the related hedging gains and losses, change in fair valueCompany’s operating performance or results of contingent consideration,operation. We also exclude stock compensation expense, andwhich is a non-cash expense, management fees, IPO expenses, gains or losses on extinguishment of debt, non-cash goodwill impairment, and IPO expenses.other impairment charges to intangible assets and operating lease right-of-use assets as management does not consider these costs to be indicative of our performance or results of operations. Adjusted EBITDA (LBITDA) includes interest expense on funding facilities, which are recorded as a component of “net interest income (expense)”, as these expenses are a direct operating expense driven by loan origination volume. By contrast, interest expense on our non-funding debt is a function of our capital structure and is therefore excluded from Adjusted EBITDA (LBITDA). Adjustments for income taxes are made to reflect historical results of operations on the basis that it was taxed as a corporation under the Internal Revenue Code, and therefore subject to U.S. federal, state and local income taxes. We exclude from each of theseThese non-GAAP measures the change in fair value of MSRs and related hedging gains and losses as this represents a non-cash non-realized adjustment to our total revenues, reflecting changes in assumptions including discount rates and prepayment speed assumptions, mostly due to changes in market interest rates, which is not indicative of our performance or results of operations. We also exclude stock compensation expense, which is a non-cash expense, management fees and IPO expenses as management does not consider these costs to be indicative of our performance or results of operations. Adjusted EBITDA includes interest expense on funding facilities, which are recorded as a component of “net interest income (expense),” as these expenses are a direct operating expense driven by loan origination volume. By contrast, interest and amortization expense on non-funding debt is a function of our capital structure and is therefore excluded from Adjusted EBITDA.

Adjusted Total Revenue, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Diluted EPS, and Adjusted EBITDA have limitations as analytical tools, and you should not consider thembe considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results asrevenue, net income, or any other operating performance measure calculated in accordance with GAAP, and may not be comparable to a similarly titled measure reported under U.S. GAAP.by other companies. Some of these limitations are:

they do not reflect every cash expenditure, future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;
Adjusted EBITDA (LBITDA) does not reflect the significant interest expense or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payment on our debt;
although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced or require improvements in the future, and Adjusted Total Revenue, Adjusted Net Income (Loss), and Adjusted EBITDA (LBITDA) do not reflect any cash requirement for such replacements or improvements; and
they are not adjusted for all non-cash income or expense items that are reflected in our statements of cash flows.

Because of these limitations, Adjusted Total Revenue, Adjusted Net Income (Loss), Adjusted Diluted EPS,Earnings (Loss) Per Share, and Adjusted EBITDA (LBITDA) are not intended as alternatives to total revenue, net income (loss), net income (loss) attributable to the Company, or Diluted EPSEarnings (Loss) Per Share or as an indicator of our operating performance and should not be considered as measures of discretionary cash available to us to invest in the growth of our business or as measures of cash that will be available to us to meet our obligations. We compensate for these limitations by using Adjusted Total Revenue, Adjusted Net Income (Loss), Adjusted Diluted EPS,Earnings (Loss) Per Share, and Adjusted

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
In the normal course of business, we are exposed to various risks which can affect our business, results and operations. The primary market risks to which we are exposed include interest rate risk, credit risk, prepayment risk and inflation risk.


53



We manage our interest rate risk and the price risk associated with changes in interest rates pursuant to the terms of an Interest Rate Risk Management Policy which (i) quantifies our interest rate risk exposure, (ii) lists the derivatives eligible for use as Hedging Instruments and (iii) establishes risk and liquidity tolerances.
Interest Rate Risk
Our principal market exposure is to interest rate risk as our business is subject to variability in results of operations due to fluctuations in interest rates. We anticipate that interest rates will remain our primary benchmark for market risk for the foreseeable future. Changes in interest rates affect our assets and liabilities measured at fair value, including LHFS, IRLCs, servicing rights and Hedging Instruments. In a declining interest rate environment, we would expect our results of operations to be positively impacted by higher loan origination volumes and loan margins. However, we would expect our results of operations to be negatively impacted by higher actual and projected loan prepayments related to our loan servicing portfolio and a decrease in the value of our servicing rights. As interest rates decline, our LHFS and IRLCs generally increase in value while our Hedging Instruments utilized to hedge against interest rate risk decrease in value. In a rising interest rate environment, we would expect a negative impact on the results of operations of our production activities and a positive impact on the results of operations of our servicing activities (principally through an increase in the fair value of our servicing rights). As interest rates increase, our LHFS and IRLCs generally decrease in value while our Hedging Instruments typically increase in value. The interaction between the results of operations of our various activities is a core component of our overall interest rate risk strategy. See “—Sensitivity Analysis” for tabular analysis on the impact of changes in interest rates on our financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value.
IRLCs represent an agreement to extend credit to a potential customer, whereby the interest rate on the loan is set prior to funding. Our LHFS, which are held in inventory awaiting sale into the secondary market, and our IRLCs, are subject to changes in interest rates from the date of the commitment through the sale of the loan into the secondary market. Accordingly, we are exposed to interest rate risk and related price risk during the period from the date of the lock commitment through (i) the lock commitment cancellation or expiration date, or (ii) the date of sale into the secondary mortgage market. LoanThe average term for outstanding interest rate lock commitments generally range between 10 and 60at June 30, 2022 was 41 days; and our average holding period of the loan from funding to sale was 13.225 days during the threesix months ended March 31, 2021.June 30, 2022.
We manage the interest rate risk associated with our outstanding IRLCs, LHFS and servicing rights by entering into Hedging Instruments. Management expects these Hedging Instruments will experience changes in fair value opposite to changes in fair value of the IRLCs and LHFS, thereby reducing earnings volatility. We take into account various factors and strategies in determining the portion of IRLCs, LHFS and servicing rights that we want to economically hedge. Our expectation of how many of our IRLCs will ultimately close is a key factor in determining the notional amount of Hedging Instruments used in hedging the position. See “Item 1A. Risk Factors—Risks Related to Our Business—Our hedging strategies may not be successful in mitigating our risks associated with changes in interest rates.”
 
Credit Risk
We are subject to credit risk in connection with our loan sale transactions. While our contracts vary, we provide representations and warranties to purchasers and insurers of the mortgage loans sold that typically are in place for the life of the loan. In the event of a breach of these representations and warranties, we may be required to repurchase a mortgage loan or indemnify the purchaser, and any subsequent loss on the mortgage loan may be borne by us. The representations and warranties require adherence to applicable origination and underwriting guidelines (including those of Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac and Ginnie Mae), including but not limited to the validity of the lien securing the loan, property eligibility, borrower credit, income and asset requirements and compliance with applicable federal, state and local law.
56


We record a provision for losses relating to such representations and warranties as part of our loan sale transactions. The level of the liability for losses from representations and warranties is difficult to estimate and requires considerable management judgment. The level of loan repurchase losses is dependent on economic factors, trends in property values, investor repurchase demand strategies and other external conditions that may change over the lives of the underlying loans. We evaluate the adequacy of our liability for losses from representations and warranties based on our loss experience and our assessment of incurred losses relating to loans that we have previously sold and which remain outstanding at the balance sheet date. As our portfolio of loans sold subject to representations and warranties grows and as economic fundamentals change, such adjustments can be material. However, we believe that our current estimates adequately approximate the losses incurred on our sold loans subject to such representations and warranties.


54



Additionally, we are exposed to credit risk associated with our customers from our LHFS as well as credit risks related to our counterparties including our subservicer, Hedging Instrument counterparties and other significant vendors. Our ability to operate profitably is dependent on both our access to capital to finance our assets and our ability to profitably originate, sell and service loans. Our ability to hold loans pending sale and/or securitization depends, in part, on the availability to us of adequate financing lines of credit at suitable interest rates and favorable advance rates.
In general, we manage such risk by selecting only counterparties that we believe to be financially strong, dispersing the risk among multiple counterparties, placing contractual limits on the amount of unsecured credit extended to any single counterparty and entering into netting agreements with the counterparties, as appropriate. During the threesix months ended March 31,June 30, 2022 and 2021, and 2020, we incurred no losses due to nonperformance by any of our counterparties.
Prepayment Risk
Prepayment risk is affected by interest rates (and their inherent risk) and borrowers’ actions relative to their underlying loans. To the extent that the actual prepayment speed on the loans underlying our servicing rights differs from what we projected when we initially recognized them and when we measured fair value as of the end of each reporting period, the carrying value of our investment in servicing rights will be affected. In general, an increase in prepayment expectations will decrease our estimates of the fair value of the servicing right, thereby reducing expected servicing income. We monitor the servicing portfolio to identify potential refinancings and the impact that would have on associated servicing rights.
Inflation Risk
Almost all of our assets and liabilities are interest rate sensitive in nature. As a result, interest rates and other factors will influence our performance more than inflation. Changes in interest rates do not necessarily correlate with inflation rates or changes in inflation rates. Additionally, our financial statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP and our activities and balance sheetsheets are measured with reference to historical cost and/or fair value without considering inflation.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of our CEO and CFO, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), as of the end of the period covered by this Form 10-Q. Based on such evaluation, our CEO and CFO have concluded that as of March 31, 2021,June 30, 2022, our disclosure controls and procedures are designed at a reasonable assurance level and are effective to provide reasonable assurance that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO and CFO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in management’s evaluation pursuant to Rules 13a-15(d) or 15d-15(d) of the Exchange Act during the period covered by this Form 10-Q that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures
In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION


Item 1. Legal Proceedings

From time to time, we and certain of our subsidiaries are involved in various lawsuits in state or federal courts regarding violations of state or federal statutes, regulations or common law related to matters arising out of the ordinary course of business. We are not currently subject to any otherFor a further discussion of our material legal proceedings. Seeproceedings, see Note 1615 - Commitments and Contingencies of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in “Item 1 Financial Statements.” Additionally, below we have described certain other significant legal proceedings.

Securities Class Action Litigation.
Beginning in September 2021, two putative class action lawsuits were filed in the United States District Court for the Central District of California asserting claims under the U.S. securities laws against the Company, certain of its directors, and certain of its officers regarding certain disclosures made in connection with the Company’s IPO. The two actions were consolidated and the court appointed a lead plaintiff in May 2022. A consolidated amended complaint was filed in June 2022, which, in addition to challenging disclosures made in connection with the IPO, alleges that certain disclosures made after the IPO were false and/or misleading. The Company’s motion to dismiss is due on August 24, 2022. The plaintiffs seek unspecified monetary damages. The Company believes this lawsuit is without merit and intends to vigorously defend against it. The Company does not believe that a loss is probable or that the amount of loss is reasonably estimable in this matter at this time.

Stockholder Derivative Litigation.
Beginning in October 2021, four shareholder derivative complaints were filed in the United States District Court for the Central District of California against certain of the Company’s directors and officers, alleging, among things, that these defendants breached their fiduciary duties by causing the Company to make the disclosures being challenged in the putative securities class action described above and seeking unspecified monetary damages for the Company and that the Company make certain changes to its corporate governance. These derivative actions subsequently were consolidated into a single action (the “California Action”). The California Action is stayed pending resolution of a motion to dismiss in the putative securities class action. Beginning in March 2022, two


56



substantially similar shareholder derivative complaints were filed in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware, and then were consolidated into a single action (the “Delaware Action”). The Delaware Action is stayed pending resolution of a motion to dismiss in the putative securities class action. The Company believes these lawsuits are without merit. The Company does not believe that a loss is probable or that the amount of loss is reasonably estimable in this matter at this time.


Item 1A. Risk Factors

ThereOther than the risk factor set forth below, there have been no material changes or updates toin the risk factors that were previously disclosed indiscussed under Part I. "Item 1A. Risk Factors" of our 20202021 Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 16, 2021.18, 2022.

Macroeconomic headwinds, including inflation and higher interest rates, have negatively impacted our operations and financial results and may further negatively impact us. While we are implementing initiatives such as our Vision 2025 plan to better position the Company, these initiatives may not effectively mitigate the effects of deterioration in the macroeconomic environment.

Our operations and financial performance are affected by factors including macroeconomic conditions such as inflation fluctuations, interest rates, consumer confidence and demand. We generate a sizeable portion of our revenues from refinance and purchase mortgages. As interest rates have risen, refinancing volumes have decreased as fewer consumers were incentivized to refinance their mortgages. As a result, our revenues have decreased substantially and we experienced net losses for the six months ended June 30, 2022. In addition, investors may seek to have us repurchase additional loans in the current environment, and because repurchased loans are typically resold at a discount to their repurchase price and unpaid principal balance we have experienced increased losses on repurchased loans or loans subject to repurchase originated at interest rates lower than currently prevailing rates. An increase in repurchase volumes of loans originated at lower interest rates could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

As a result of our second quarter losses, we were required to amend certain of our warehouse lines or amend and obtain waivers of profitability related financial covenants in certain of our debt obligations for the quarter and we expect that we will need to execute additional amendments or obtain additional waivers from certain of our lending counterparties related to our profitability covenants or other similar financial covenants in the future including for the third quarter. There can be no assurance that such amendments or waivers will be received, in which case we would be in default under these agreements, and our lenders could elect to declare outstanding amounts due and payable, terminate their commitments, require the posting of additional collateral and enforce their interests against existing collateral, as well as triggering cross default provisions under other financing facilities which could materially adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

In July 2022, we announced our Vision 2025 plan designed to address current and anticipated mortgage market conditions by reducing staffing levels to approximately 6,500 by year-end 2022 and implementing business process optimization and other cost saving measures. We may not realize, in full or in part, the anticipated benefits, savings and improvements in our operations from our restructuring efforts due to unforeseen difficulties, delays or unexpected costs. If we are unable to realize the expected operational efficiencies and cost savings through headcount reduction, attrition, business process optimization, reduced marketing and third-party spending, and real estate consolidation, our operating results, financial condition, cash flows and competitive position may be materially adversely affected. We also cannot guarantee that we will not have to undertake additional staffing reductions or strategic reorganization activities in the future.

Furthermore, planned staffing reductions could create an additional risk of claims being made on behalf of affected employees. Any alleged violation of applicable wage laws or other labor-or employment-related laws could result in complaints by current or former employees, adverse media coverage, investigations and damages or penalties which could have a materially adverse effect on our reputation, business, operating results and prospects. In addition, responding to any such proceeding may result in a significant diversion of management’s attention and resources, significant defense costs and other professional fees.

Finally, we may be exposed to unanticipated consequences of our staffing reductions, including attrition beyond the planned reductions, increased difficulties in our day-to-day operations, including as a result of a loss of continuity, loss of accumulated knowledge and/or efficiency, reduced employee morale and reduced ability to attract


57



and retain qualified personnel. Employees who were not affected by our planned staffing reductions may seek alternate employment, which may force us to rely on third-party contract support creating unplanned additional expense or harm our productivity.
