loanDepot, Inc. (NYSE: LDI), (together with its subsidiaries,
“loanDepot” or the “Company”), a leading provider of products and
services that power the homeownership journey, today announced
results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2024.
“Through the successful implementation of our Vision 2025
strategic program, loanDepot returned to profitability in the third
quarter on modest improvements in market volumes, which resulted in
higher revenue,” said President and Chief Executive Officer Frank
Martell. “We are also realizing the benefits of our ongoing cost
management and productivity programs, which helped to fund
strategic investments in our platforms, solutions and people. These
investments should help position the company for success in 2025
and beyond.
“Vision 2025, launched in July of 2022, was a critical factor in
our successful navigation of unprecedented and challenging market
conditions over the past three years. The launch of Project North
Star builds on the strategic pillars of Vision 2025, including our
focus on durable revenue growth, positive operating leverage,
productivity and investments in platforms and solutions that
support our customer’s homeownership journey,” added Martell.
“We are pleased that the successful completion of the strategic
objectives of Vision 2025 has delivered the company’s first
profitable quarter since the beginning of the market downturn in
the first quarter of 2022,” said David Hayes, Chief Financial
Officer. “The third quarter served as validation of our strategy as
we saw a modest improvement in the mortgage market, coupled with
the company’s positive operating leverage fueled our return to
profitability. As we look toward 2025, we anticipate continued
market challenges, but we believe that the implementation of
Project North Star will allow us to capture the benefit of higher
market volumes while we continue to capitalize on our ongoing
investments in operational efficiency to achieve sustainable
profitability in a wide variety of operating environments.”

third quarter of 2023, primarily due to lower general and
administrative expenses, offset somewhat by higher headcount
related salary expenses and marketing costs.
- Accrued a net benefit of $18.9 million primarily associated
with expected insurance proceeds related to the settlement of
class-action litigation related to the first quarter Cybersecurity
Incident.
- Incurred restructuring and impairment charges totaling $1.9
million, a decrease of $0.4 million from the third quarter of
2023.

the third quarter, down slightly from 71% during the third quarter
of 2023.
- Our preliminary organic refinance consumer direct recapture
rate1 increased to 71% from the third quarter 2023’s recapture rate
of 69%.
- Net income for the third quarter of 2024 of $2.7 million as

third quarter of 2023.

our servicing portfolio that paid in full for the purpose of
refinancing the loan on the same property. The recapture rate is
finalized following the publication date of this release when
external data becomes available.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To provide investors with information in addition to our results
as determined by GAAP, we disclose certain non-GAAP measures to
assist investors in evaluating our financial results. We believe
these 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 interest
expense on non-funding debt), taxation, the age and book
depreciation of facilities (affecting relative depreciation
expense), and other cost or benefit items which may vary for
different companies for reasons unrelated to operating performance.
These non-GAAP measures include our Adjusted Total Revenue,
Adjusted Net Income (Loss), Adjusted Diluted Earnings (Loss) Per
Share (if dilutive), and Adjusted EBITDA (LBITDA). We exclude from
these non-GAAP financial measures the change in fair value of MSRs,
gains (losses) from the sale of MSRs and related hedging gains and
losses that represent realized and unrealized adjustments resulting
from changes in valuation, mostly due to changes in market interest
rates, and are not indicative of the Company’s operating
performance or results of operation. Beginning in the second
quarter of 2024, we began to include the gains (losses) from the
sale of MSRs in valuation changes in servicing rights, net of
hedging gains and losses to appropriately capture all valuation
changes in MSRs up to and including the sales date. Prior periods
have been revised to conform with this new presentation. We also
exclude stock-based compensation expense, which is a non-cash
expense, expenses directly related to the Cybersecurity Incident,
net of expected insurance recoveries, including costs to
investigate and remediate the Cybersecurity Incident, the costs of
customer notifications and identity protection, professional fees,
including legal expenses, litigation settlement costs, and
commission guarantees, gains or losses on extinguishment of debt
and disposal of fixed assets, non-cash goodwill impairment, and
other impairment charges to intangible assets and operating lease
right-of-use assets, as well as certain costs associated with our
restructuring efforts, 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. Adjustments to Diluted Weighted Average Shares
Outstanding assumes the pro forma conversion of weighted average
Class C shares to Class A common stock. These non-GAAP measures
have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered
in isolation or 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. 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 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 Earnings (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 Earnings (Loss) Per Share, and Adjusted EBITDA (LBITDA)
along with other comparative tools, together with U.S. GAAP
measurements, to assist in the evaluation of operating performance.
See below for a reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to their
most comparable U.S. GAAP measures.
