SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (Report) contains certain forward-looking statements that are subject to various risks and uncertainties. Forward-looking statements are generally identifiable by use of forward-looking terminology such as may, will, should, potential, intend, expect, seek, anticipate, estimate, approximately, believe, could, project, predict, continue, plan or other similar words or expressions.
Forward-looking statements are based on certain assumptions, discuss future expectations, describe future plans and strategies, contain financial and operating projections or state other forward-looking information. Examples of forward-looking statements include the following:
| projections of our revenues, income, earnings per share, capital structure or other financial items; |
| descriptions of our plans or objectives for future operations, products or services; |
| forecasts of our future economic performance, interest rates, profit margins and our share of future markets; and |
| descriptions of assumptions underlying or relating to any of the foregoing expectations regarding the timing of generating any revenues. |
Our ability to predict results or the actual effect of future events, actions, plans or strategies is inherently uncertain. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, our actual results and performance could differ materially from those set forth in the forward-looking statements. There are a number of factors, many of which are beyond our control that could cause actual results to differ significantly from managements expectations. Some of these factors are discussed below.
You should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statement and should consider the following uncertainties and risks, as well as the risks and uncertainties discussed elsewhere in this Report and the section entitled Risk Factors in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015, filed with the SEC on February 29, 2016.
Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from historical results or those anticipated include, but are not limited to:
| changes in our investment objectives or investment or operational strategies, including any new lines of business or new products and services that may subject us to additional risks; |
| volatility in our industry, the debt or equity markets, the general economy or the real estate finance and real estate markets specifically, whether the result of market events or otherwise; |
| events or circumstances which undermine confidence in the financial markets or otherwise have a broad impact on financial markets, such as the sudden instability or collapse of large depository institutions or other significant corporations, terrorist attacks, natural or man-made disasters, or threatened or actual armed conflicts; |
| changes in general business, economic, market, employment and political conditions, or in consumer confidence and spending habits from those expected; |
| declines in real estate or significant changes in U.S. housing prices or activity in the U.S. housing market; |

| changes in personnel and lack of availability of qualified personnel at our manager, servicer or their affiliates; |
| the availability, terms and deployment of short-term and long-term capital; |

1
| the timing and amount of cash flows, if any, from our investments; |
| unanticipated increases or volatility in financing and other costs, including a rise in interest rates; |
| the performance, financial condition and liquidity of borrowers; |

| incomplete or inaccurate information or documentation provided by customers or counterparties, or adverse changes in the financial condition of our customers and counterparties; |
| our indemnification and repurchase obligations in connection with mortgage loans we purchase and later sell or securitize; |

| increased prepayments of the mortgages and other loans underlying our mortgage-backed securities (MBS) or relating to our mortgage servicing rights (MSRs), excess servicing spread (ESS) and other investments; |
| the degree to which our hedging strategies may or may not protect us from interest rate volatility; |
| the effect of the accuracy of or changes in the estimates we make about uncertainties, contingencies and asset and liability valuations when measuring and reporting upon our financial condition and results of operations; |
| our failure to maintain appropriate internal controls over financial reporting; |
| technologies for loans and our ability to mitigate security risks and cyber intrusions; |
| our ability to obtain and/or maintain licenses and other approvals in those jurisdictions where required to conduct our business; |
| our ability to detect misconduct and fraud; |
| our ability to comply with various federal, state and local laws and regulations that govern our business; |
| developments in the secondary markets for our mortgage loan products; |
| legislative and regulatory changes that impact the mortgage loan industry or housing market; |
| changes in regulations or the occurrence of other events that impact the business, operations or prospects of government agencies such as the Government National Mortgage Association (Ginnie Mae), the Federal Housing Administration (the FHA) or the Veterans Administration (the VA), the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), or government-sponsored entities such as the Federal National Mortgage Association (Fannie Mae) or the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (Freddie Mac) (Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac and Ginnie Mae are each referred to as an Agency and, collectively, as the Agencies), or such changes that increase the cost of doing business with such entities; |
| the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the Dodd-Frank Act) and its implementing regulations and regulatory agencies, and any other legislative and regulatory changes that impact the business, operations or governance of mortgage lenders and/or publicly-traded companies; |

| changes in governmental regulations, accounting treatment, tax rates and similar matters (including changes to laws governing the taxation of REITs, or the exclusions from registration as an investment company); |
2
| our ability to make distributions to our shareholders in the future; |
| the effect of public opinion on our reputation; |
| the occurrence of natural disasters or other events or circumstances that could impact our operations; and |
| our organizational structure and certain requirements in our charter documents. |
Other factors that could also cause results to differ from our expectations may not be described in this Report or any other document. Each of these factors could by itself, or together with one or more other factors, adversely affect our business, results of operations and/or financial condition.
Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and we undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect the impact of circumstances or events that arise after the date the forward-looking statement was made.

PENNYMAC MORTGAGE INVESTMENT TRUST AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
Note 1Organization and Basis of Presentation
PennyMac Mortgage Investment Trust (PMT or the Company) was organized in Maryland on May 18, 2009, and commenced operations on August 4, 2009, when it completed its initial offerings of common shares of beneficial interest (common shares). The Company is a specialty finance company, which, through its subsidiaries (all of which are wholly-owned), invests primarily in residential mortgage-related assets.
The Company operates in two segments, correspondent production and investment activities:
| The correspondent production segment represents the Companys operations aimed at serving as an intermediary between mortgage lenders and the capital markets by purchasing, pooling and reselling newly originated prime credit quality mortgage loans either directly or in the form of mortgage-backed securities (MBS), using the services of PNMAC Capital Management, LLC (PCM or the Manager) and PennyMac Loan Services, LLC (PLS), both indirect controlled subsidiaries of PennyMac Financial Services, Inc. (PFSI). |
Most of the mortgage loans the Company has acquired in its correspondent production activities have been eligible for sale to government-sponsored entities such as the Federal National Mortgage Association (Fannie Mae) and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (Freddie Mac) or through government agencies such as the Government National Mortgage Association (Ginnie Mae). Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac and Ginnie Mae are each referred to as an Agency and, collectively, as the Agencies.
| The investment activities segment represents the Companys investments in mortgage-related assets, which include mortgage-backed securities (MBS), distressed mortgage loans, excess servicing spread (ESS), credit risk transfer agreements (CRT Agreements), real estate acquired in settlement of loans (REO), real estate held for investment, mortgage servicing rights (MSRs), and small balance commercial real estate loans. |
The Company believes that it qualifies, and has elected to be taxed, as a real estate investment trust (REIT) under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, beginning with its taxable period ended on December 31, 2009. To maintain its tax status as a REIT, the Company has to distribute at least 90% of its taxable income in the form of qualifying distributions to shareholders.
The Company conducts substantially all of its operations and makes substantially all of its investments through its subsidiary, PennyMac Operating Partnership, L.P. (the Operating Partnership), and the Operating Partnerships subsidiaries. A wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company is the sole general partner, and the Company is the sole limited partner, of the Operating Partnership.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in compliance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP) as codified in the Financial Accounting Standards Boards (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) for interim financial information and with the Securities and Exchange Commissions instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, these financial statements and notes do not include all of the information required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The interim consolidated information should be read together with the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015.
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position, income, and cash flows for the interim periods, but are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that may be anticipated for the full year. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
Preparation of financial statements in compliance with GAAP requires the Manager to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results will likely differ from those estimates.
Note 2Concentration of Risks
As discussed in Note 1Organization and Basis of Presentation above, PMTs operations and investing activities are centered in mortgage-related assets, a substantial portion of which are distressed at acquisition. The mortgage loans at fair value not acquired for sale or held in a Variable Interest Entity (VIE) are generally purchased at discounts reflecting their distressed state or perceived higher risk of default, as well as a greater likelihood of collateral documentation deficiencies.
10
Due to the nature of the Companys investments, PMT is exposed, to a greater extent than traditional mortgage investors, to the risks that borrowers may be in economic distress and/or may have become unemployed, bankrupt or otherwise unable or unwilling to make payments when due, and to the effects of fluctuations in the residential real estate market on the performance of its investments. Factors influencing these risks include, but are not limited to:
| changes in the overall economy, unemployment rates and residential real estate values in the markets where the properties securing the Companys mortgage loans are located; |
| PCMs ability to identify and PLS ability to execute optimal resolutions of certain mortgage loans; |
| the accuracy of valuation information obtained during the Companys due diligence activities; |
| PCMs ability to effectively model, and to develop appropriate model inputs that properly anticipate, future outcomes; |
| the level of government support for resolution of certain mortgage loans and the effect of current and future proposed and enacted legislative and regulatory changes on the Companys ability to effect cures or resolutions to distressed mortgage loans; and |
| regulatory, judicial and legislative support of the foreclosure process, and the resulting effect on the Companys ability to acquire and liquidate the real estate securing its portfolio of distressed mortgage loans in a timely manner or at all. |
Due to these uncertainties, there can be no assurance that risk management activities identified and executed on PMTs behalf will prevent significant losses arising from the Companys investments in real estate-related assets.
A substantial portion of the distressed mortgage loans and REO purchased by the Company in prior years has been acquired from or through one or more subsidiaries of Citigroup Inc., as presented in the following summary:

Financing Activities
PFSI held 75,000 of the Companys common shares at both March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015.
Note Payable to PLS
PLS is a party to a repurchase agreement between it and Credit Suisse First Boston Mortgage Capital LLC (CSFB) (the MSR Repo), pursuant to which PLS finances Ginnie Mae MSRs and servicing advance receivables and pledges to CSFB all of its rights and interests in any Ginnie Mae MSRs it owns or acquires, and a separate acknowledgement agreement with respect thereto, by and among Ginnie Mae, CSFB and PLS.
In connection with the MSR Repo described above, the Company, through a wholly-owned subsidiary, entered into an underlying loan and security agreement with PLS, dated as of April 30, 2015, pursuant to which the Company may borrow up to $150 million from PLS for the purpose of financing its investment in ESS (the Underlying LSA). The principal amount of the borrowings under the Underlying LSA is based upon a percentage of the market value of the ESS pledged to PLS, subject to the $150 million sublimit described above. Pursuant to the Underlying LSA, the Company granted to PLS a security interest in all of its right, title and interest in, to and under the ESS pledged to secure the borrowings, and PLS, in turn, re-pledged such ESS to CSFB under the MSR Repo.
The Company agreed with PLS in connection with the Underlying LSA that the Company is required to repay PLS the principal amount of borrowings plus accrued interest to the date of such repayment, and PLS, in turn, is required to repay CSFB the corresponding amount under the MSR Repo. Interest accrues on the Companys note relating to the Underlying LSA at a rate based on CSFBs cost of funds under the MSR Repo. The Company was also required to pay PLS a fee for the structuring of the Underlying LSA in an amount equal to the portion of the corresponding fee paid by PLS to CSFB allocable to $150 million relating to the ESS financing.
Conditional Reimbursement and Contingent Underwriting Fees
In connection with its initial public offering of common shares on August 4, 2009 (IPO), the Company conditionally agreed to reimburse PCM up to $2.9 million for underwriting fees paid to the IPO underwriters by PCM on the Companys behalf (the Conditional Reimbursement). Also in connection with its IPO, the Company agreed to pay the IPO underwriters up to $5.9 million in contingent underwriting fees.

Note 4Earnings Per Share
The Company grants restricted share units which entitle the recipients to receive dividend equivalents during the vesting period on a basis equivalent to the dividends paid to holders of common shares. Unvested share-based compensation awards containing non-forfeitable rights to receive dividends or dividend equivalents (collectively, dividends) are classified as participating securities and are included in the basic earnings per share calculation using the two-class method.
Under the two-class method, all earnings (distributed and undistributed) are allocated to common shares and participating securities, based on their respective rights to receive dividends. Basic earnings per share is determined by dividing net income, reduced by income attributable to the participating securities, by the weighted-average common shares outstanding during the period.
Diluted earnings per share is determined by dividing net income attributable to diluted shareholders, which adds back to net income the interest expense, net of applicable income taxes, on the Companys exchangeable senior notes (the Exchangeable Notes), by the weighted-average common shares outstanding, assuming all potentially dilutive securities were issued. In periods in which the Company records a loss, potentially dilutive securities are excluded from the diluted loss per share calculation, as their effect on loss per share is anti-dilutive.

Note 5Loan Sales and Variable Interest Entities
The Company is a variable interest holder in various special purpose entities that relate to its mortgage loan transfer and financing activities. These entities are classified as VIEs for accounting purposes. The Company has segregated its involvement with VIEs between those VIEs which the Company does not consolidate and those VIEs which the Company consolidates.

Consolidated VIEs
Credit Risk Transfer Agreements
The Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, PennyMac Corp. (PMC), entered into CRT Agreements with Fannie Mae, pursuant to which PMC, through subsidiary trust entities, sells pools of mortgage loans into Fannie Mae-guaranteed securitizations while retaining a portion of the credit risk underlying such mortgage loans in exchange for a portion of the contractual guarantee fee normally charged by Fannie Mae. The mortgage loans subject to the CRT Agreements are transferred by PMC to subsidiary trust entities which sell the mortgage loans into Fannie Mae mortgage loan securitizations and issue the credit guarantees to Fannie Mae. Transfers of mortgage loans subject to CRT Agreements receive sale accounting treatment upon fulfillment of the criteria for sale recognition contained in the Transfers and Servicing topic of the FASBs ASC.
The Manager has concluded that the Companys subsidiary trust entities are VIEs and the Company is the primary beneficiary of the VIEs as it is the holder of the primary beneficial interests which absorb the variability of the trusts results of operations. Consolidation of the VIEs results in the inclusion on the Companys consolidated balance sheet of the cash pledged to fulfill the guarantee obligation and a credit derivative comprised of the fair values of the credit guarantees and the Companys right to the related guarantee fees. The pledged cash represents the Companys maximum contractual exposure to claims under its credit guarantee; is the sole source of settlement of losses under the CRT Agreements and is included in Other assets on the consolidated balance sheet. Gains and losses on net derivatives related to CRT Agreements, including realized gains received, are included in Net gain on investments in the consolidated statements of income.

Jumbo Mortgage Loan Financing
On September 30, 2013, the Company completed a securitization transaction in which PMT Loan Trust 2013-J1, a VIE, issued $537.0 million in UPB of certificates backed by fixed-rate prime jumbo mortgage loans, at a 3.9% weighted yield. The Company retained $366.8 million in fair value of such certificates. During the year ended December 31, 2015, the Company sold an additional $111.0 million in UPB of those certificates and $100.6 million in UPB of those certificates were sold during the quarter ended March 31, 2016, which reduced the fair value of the certificates retained by the Company to $104.5 million as of March 31, 2016.
The VIE is consolidated by the Company as PMT determined it is the primary beneficiary of the VIE as it had the power, through PLS, in its role as servicer of the mortgage loans, to direct the activities of the trust that most significantly impact the trusts economic performance. Further, the retained subordinated and residual interest trust certificates expose the Company to losses that could potentially be significant to the Company.
Note 6Netting of Financial Instruments
The Company uses derivative financial instruments to manage exposure to interest rate risk created by its MBS, interest rate lock commitments (IRLCs), mortgage loans acquired for sale at fair value, mortgage loans at fair value held in VIE, ESS and MSRs. All derivative financial instruments are recorded on the consolidated balance sheets at fair value. The Company has elected to net derivative asset and liability positions, and cash collateral obtained (or posted) from (or to) its counterparties when subject to a legally enforceable master netting arrangement.

Note 7Fair Value
The Companys consolidated financial statements include assets and liabilities that are measured based on their fair values. Measurement at fair value may be on a recurring or nonrecurring basis depending on the accounting principles applicable to the specific asset or liability and whether the Manager has elected to carry the item at its fair value as discussed in the following paragraphs.
The Company groups its assets and liabilities at fair value in three levels, based on the markets in which the assets and liabilities are traded and the observability of the inputs used to determine fair value. These levels are:
| Level 1Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. |
| Level 2Prices determined or determinable using other significant observable inputs. Observable inputs are inputs that other market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability and are developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company. These may include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk and other inputs. |
| Level 3Prices determined using significant unobservable inputs. In situations where significant observable inputs are unavailable (for example, when there is little or no market activity for an investment at the end of the period) unobservable inputs may be used. Unobservable inputs reflect the Companys own judgments about the factors that market participants use in pricing an asset or liability, and are based on the best information available in the circumstances. |
21
As a result of the difficulty in observing certain significant valuation inputs affecting Level 3 fair value financial statement items, the Manager is required to make judgments regarding these items fair values. Different persons in possession of the same facts may reasonably arrive at different conclusions as to the inputs to be applied in valuing these financial statement items and their fair values. Likewise, due to the general illiquidity of some of these financial statement items, subsequent transactions may be at values significantly different from those reported.
Fair Value Accounting Elections
The Manager identified all of the Companys non-cash financial assets and MSRs relating to loans with initial interest rates of more than 4.5%, to be accounted for at fair value. The Manager has elected to account for these financial statement items at fair value so such changes in fair value will be reflected in income as they occur and more timely reflect the results of the Companys performance. Originated MSRs backed by mortgage loans with initial interest rates of less than or equal to 4.5% are accounted for using the amortization method.
The Manager has also identified the Companys CRT financing and asset-backed financing of a VIE to be accounted for at fair value to reflect the generally offsetting changes in fair value of these borrowings to changes in fair value of mortgage loans at fair value collateralizing these financings.
For assets sold under agreements to repurchase and the Exchangeable Notes, the Manager has determined that historical cost accounting is more appropriate because under this method debt issuance costs are amortized over the term of the debt, thereby matching the debt issuance cost to the periods benefiting from the availability of the debt.

Real Estate Acquired in Settlement of Loans
The Company evaluates its REO for impairment with reference to the respective properties fair values less cost to sell on a nonrecurring basis. The initial carrying value of the REO is measured at cost as indicated by the purchase price in the case of purchased REO or as measured by the fair value of the mortgage loan immediately before REO acquisition in the case of acquisition in settlement of a loan. REO may be subsequently revalued due to the Company receiving greater access to the property, the property being held for an extended period or receiving indications that the propertys value may not be supported by developing market conditions. Any subsequent change in fair value to a level that is less than or equal to the propertys cost is recognized in Results of real estate acquired in settlement of loans in the Companys consolidated statements of income.
Mortgage Servicing Rights at Lower of Amortized Cost or Fair Value
The Company evaluates its MSRs at lower of amortized cost or fair value for impairment with reference to the assets fair value. For purposes of performing its MSR impairment evaluation, the Company stratifies its MSRs at lower of amortized cost or fair value based on the interest rates borne by the mortgage loans underlying the MSRs. Mortgage loans are grouped into pools with 50 basis point interest rate ranges for fixed-rate mortgage loans with interest rates between 3.0% and 4.5% and a single pool for mortgage loans with interest rates below 3.0%. MSRs relating to adjustable rate mortgage loans with initial interest rates of 4.5% or less are evaluated in a single pool. If the fair value of MSRs in any of the interest rate pools is below the amortized cost of the MSRs, those MSRs are impaired.
When MSRs are impaired, the impairment is recognized in current-period income and the carrying value of the MSRs is adjusted using a valuation allowance. If the fair value of the MSRs subsequently increases, the increase in fair value is recognized in current period income only to the extent of the valuation allowance for the respective impairment stratum.
The Manager periodically reviews the various impairment strata to determine whether the fair value of the impaired MSRs in a given stratum is likely to recover. When the Manager deems recovery of fair value to be unlikely in the foreseeable future, a write-down of the cost of the MSRs for that stratum to its estimated recoverable value is charged to the valuation allowance.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments Carried at Amortized Cost
The Companys Cash as well as certain of its borrowings are carried at amortized cost. Cash is measured using a Level 1 fair value input. The Companys assets sold under agreements to repurchase and mortgage loan participation and sale agreement are classified as Level 3 fair value financial statement items due to the Companys reliance on unobservable inputs to estimate these instruments fair values.
The Manager has concluded that the fair values of Cash, Assets sold under agreements to repurchase, Mortgage loan participation and sale agreements, Federal Home Loan Bank advances and Notes payable approximate the agreements carrying values due to the immediate realizability of Cash at its carrying amount and to the borrowing agreements short terms and variable interest rates.
28
The Exchangeable Notes are carried at amortized cost. The fair value of the Exchangeable Notes at March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015 was $224.4 million and $230.0 million, respectively. The fair value of the Exchangeable Notes is estimated using a broker indication of value. The Company has classified the Exchangeable Notes as Level 3 fair value financial statement items as of March 31, 2016 due to the lack of current market activity.
Valuation Techniques and Inputs
Most of the Companys assets, its Derivative liabilities, the Asset-backed financing of a VIE and the Interest-only security payable are carried at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in current period income. A substantial portion of these items are Level 3 fair value financial statement items which require the use of unobservable inputs that are significant to the estimation of the items fair values. Unobservable inputs reflect the Companys own judgments about the factors that market participants use in pricing an asset or liability, and are based on the best information available under the circumstances.
Due to the difficulty in estimating the fair values of Level 3 fair value financial statement items, the Manager has assigned responsibility for estimating fair value of these items to specialized staff and subjects the valuation process to significant executive management oversight. The Managers Financial Analysis and Valuation group (the FAV group) is responsible for estimating the fair values of Level 3 fair value financial statement items other than IRLCs and maintaining its valuation policies and procedures.
With respect to its Level 3 valuations, the FAV group reports to PCMs valuation committee, which oversees and approves the valuations. The FAV group monitors the models used for valuation of the Companys non-IRLC Level 3 fair value financial statement items, including the models performance versus actual results, and reports those results to PCMs valuation committee. PCMs valuation committee includes PFSIs chief executive, financial, operating, risk and asset/liability management officers.
The FAV group is responsible for reporting to PCMs valuation committee on a monthly basis on the changes in the valuation of the financial statement items, including major factors affecting the valuation and any changes in model methods and inputs. To assess the reasonableness of its valuations, the FAV group presents an analysis of the effect on the valuation of changes to the significant inputs to the models.
The fair value of the Companys IRLCs is developed by the Managers Capital Markets Risk Management staff and is reviewed by the Managers Capital Markets Operations group.
The following is a description of the techniques and inputs used in estimating the fair values of Level 2 and Level 3 fair value financial statement items:
Mortgage-Backed Securities
The Companys MBS include Agency and senior non-agency MBS. The Company categorizes its current holdings of MBS as Level 2 fair value financial statement items. Fair value of these MBS is established based on quoted market prices for the Companys MBS or similar securities.
Mortgage Loans
Fair value of mortgage loans is estimated based on whether the mortgage loans are saleable into active markets:
| Mortgage loans that are saleable into active markets, comprised of the Companys mortgage loans acquired for sale at fair value and mortgage loans at fair value held in a VIE, are categorized as Level 2 fair value financial statement items. The fair values of mortgage loans acquired for sale at fair value are established using their quoted market or contracted price or market price equivalent. For the mortgage loans at fair value held in a VIE, the fair values of all of the individual securities issued by the securitization trust are used to derive a fair value for the mortgage loans. The Company obtains indications of fair value from nonaffiliated brokers based on comparable securities and validates the brokers indications of fair value using pricing models and inputs the Manager believes are similar to the models and inputs used by other market participants. |
| Mortgage loans that are not saleable into active markets, comprised of the Companys mortgage loans at fair value held outside the VIE are categorized as Level 3 fair value financial statement items and their fair values are estimated using a discounted cash flow approach. Inputs to the discounted cash flow model include current interest rates, loan amount, payment status, property type, discount rates and forecasts of future interest rates, home prices, prepayment speeds, default speeds, loss severities and contracted selling price where applicable. |
29
The valuation process includes the computation by stratum of the mortgage loans fair values and a review for reasonableness of various measures such as weighted average life, projected prepayment and default speeds, and projected default and loss percentages. The FAV group computes the effect on the valuation of changes in inputs such as interest rates, home prices, and delinquency status to assess the reasonableness of changes in the mortgage loan valuation. |
Changes in fair value attributable to changes in instrument-specific credit risk are measured by the effect on fair value of the change in the respective mortgage loans delinquency status and history at period-end from the later of the beginning of the period or acquisition date.
The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Companys mortgage loans at fair value are discount rate, home price projections, voluntary prepayment speeds and default speeds. Significant changes in any of those inputs in isolation could result in a significant change to the mortgage loans fair value measurement. Increases in home price projections are generally accompanied by an increase in voluntary prepayment speeds.
Following is a quantitative summary of key inputs used in the valuation of mortgage loans at fair value:

(1) | Prepayment speed is measured using Life Voluntary Conditional Prepayment Rate (CPR). |
(2) | Total prepayment speed is measured using Life Total CPR. |
Excess Servicing Spread Purchased from PFSI
The Company categorizes ESS as a Level 3 fair value financial statement item. The Company uses a discounted cash flow approach to estimate the fair value of ESS. The key inputs used in the estimation of the fair value of ESS include prepayment speed and discount rate. Significant changes to those inputs in isolation may result in a significant change in the ESS fair value measurement. Changes in these key inputs are not necessarily directly related.
ESS is generally subject to loss in fair value when interest rates decrease. Decreasing mortgage rates normally encourage increased mortgage refinancing activity. Increased refinancing activity reduces the life of the mortgage loans underlying the ESS, thereby reducing the fair value of ESS. Reductions in the fair value of ESS affect income primarily through change in fair value.

(1) | Pricing spread represents a margin that is applied to a reference interest rates forward rate curve to develop periodic discount rates. The Company applies a pricing spread to the United States Dollar London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) curve for purposes of discounting cash flows relating to ESS. |
(2) | Prepayment speed is measured using Life Total CPR. |
Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company categorizes IRLCs as a Level 3 fair value financial statement item. The Company estimates the fair value of IRLCs based on quoted Agency MBS prices, its estimate of the fair value of the MSRs it expects to receive in the sale of the mortgage loans and the probability that the mortgage loan will be purchased under the commitment as a percentage of the commitments it has made (the pull-through rate).
The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Companys IRLCs are the pull-through rate and the MSR component of the Companys estimate of the fair value of the mortgage loans it has committed to purchase. Significant changes in the pull-through rate or the MSR component of the IRLCs, in isolation, may result in a significant change in fair value. The financial effects of changes in these inputs are generally inversely correlated as increasing interest rates have a positive effect on the fair value of the MSR component of IRLC value, but increase the pull-through rate for mortgage loan principal and interest payment cash flows that have decreased in fair value.
Following is a quantitative summary of key unobservable inputs used in the valuation of IRLCs:

The Company estimates the fair value of commitments to sell mortgage loans based on quoted MBS prices. The Company estimates the fair value of the interest rate options and futures it uses as hedging derivatives based on observed interest rate volatilities in the MBS market. These derivative financial instruments are categorized by the Company as Level 2 fair value financial statement items.
31
Real Estate Acquired in Settlement of Loans
REO is measured based on its fair value on a nonrecurring basis and is categorized as a Level 3 fair value financial statement item. Fair value of REO is established by using a current estimate of fair value from a brokers price opinion or a full appraisal, or the price given in a current contract of sale.
REO fair values are reviewed by the Managers staff appraisers when the Company obtains multiple indications of fair value and there is a significant difference between the fair values received. PCMs staff appraisers will attempt to resolve the difference between the indications of fair value. In circumstances where the appraisers are not able to generate adequate data to support a fair value conclusion, the staff appraisers will order an additional appraisal to determine the fair value.
Mortgage Servicing Rights
MSRs are categorized as Level 3 fair value financial statement items. The Company uses a discounted cash flow approach to estimate the fair value of MSRs. The key inputs used in the estimation of the fair value of MSRs include the applicable pricing spread, prepayment and default rates of the underlying mortgage loans, and annual per-loan cost to service mortgage loans, all of which are unobservable. Significant changes to any of those inputs in isolation could result in a significant change in the MSR fair value measurement. Changes in these key inputs are not necessarily directly related.
MSRs are generally subject to loss in fair value when mortgage interest rates decrease. Decreasing mortgage interest rates normally encourage increased mortgage refinancing activity. Increased refinancing activity reduces the life of the underlying mortgage loans, thereby reducing MSR fair value. Reductions in the fair value of MSRs affect income primarily through change in fair value and change in impairment. For MSRs backed by mortgage loans with historically low interest rates, factors other than interest rates (such as housing price changes) take on increasing influence on prepayment behavior of the underlying mortgage loans.
Following are the key inputs used in determining the fair value of MSRs at the time of initial recognition:

The Company is not approved by Ginnie Mae as an issuer of Ginnie Mae-guaranteed securities which are backed by government-insured or guaranteed mortgage loans. The Company transfers government-insured or guaranteed mortgage loans that it purchases from correspondent lenders to PLS, which is a Ginnie Mae-approved issuer, and earns a sourcing fee of three basis points on the UPB plus interest earned during the period it holds each such mortgage loan.
Note 9Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company enters into CRT Agreements whereby it retains a portion of the credit risk relating to mortgage loans it sells into Fannie Mae guaranteed securitizations in exchange for a portion of the contractual guarantee fee related to such securitizations. The fair values of the credit guarantees and the Companys right to the related guarantee fee are accounted for as a derivative financial instrument. IRLCs are generated in the normal course of business when the Company commits to purchase mortgage loans acquired for sale. The Companys remaining derivative financial instrument transactions are in support of its interest rate risk management activities.
The Company engages in interest rate risk management activities in an effort to reduce the variability of earnings caused by changes in interest rates. To manage the price risk resulting from interest rate risk, the Company uses derivative financial instruments acquired with the intention of moderating the risk that changes in market interest rates will result in unfavorable changes in the fair value of the Companys MBS, inventory of mortgage loans acquired for sale, mortgage loans held by VIE, ESS, IRLCs and MSRs. The Company records all derivative financial instruments at fair value and records changes in fair value in current period income.
The Company is exposed to price risk relative to the IRLCs it issues to correspondent lenders and to the mortgage loans it purchases as a result of issuing the IRLCs. The Company bears price risk from the time an IRLC is issued to a correspondent lender to the time the purchased mortgage loan is sold. The Company is exposed to loss if mortgage interest rates increase, because interest rate increases generally cause the fair value of the purchase commitment or mortgage loan acquired for sale to decrease.
The Company is also exposed to risk relative to the fair value of its MSRs and ESS. The Company is exposed to loss in fair value of its MSRs and ESS when interest rates decrease. The Company includes MSRs and ESS in its hedging activities.
34
The Company uses Eurodollar futures, which settle daily, with the intention of moderating the risk of changing market interest rates that will result in unfavorable changes in the fair value of the Companys fixed-rate assets and economic performance of its LIBOR-indexed variable interest rate repurchase agreement liabilities.
The Company had the following derivative assets and liabilities and related margin deposits recorded within Derivative assets and Derivative liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets:

Note 14Mortgage Loan Participation and Sale Agreements
Two of the borrowing facilities secured by mortgage loans acquired for sale are in the form of mortgage loan participation and sale agreements. Participation certificates, each of which represents an undivided beneficial ownership interest in a pool of mortgage loans that have been pooled with Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac, are sold to the lender pending the securitization of such mortgage loans and the sale of the resulting security. A commitment between the Company and a nonaffiliate to sell such security is also assigned to the lender at the time a participation certificate is sold.
The purchase price paid by the lender for each participation certificate is based on the trade price of the security, plus an amount of interest expected to accrue on the security to its anticipated delivery date, minus a present value adjustment, any related hedging costs and a holdback amount that is based on a percentage of the purchase price and is not required to be paid to the Company until the settlement of the security and its delivery to the lender.
