- Earns adjusted net income of $0.36 per diluted share, or $0.30 on GAAP basis
NEW YORK, Nov. 7 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- MortgageIT Holdings, Inc. (NYSE:MHL), a residential mortgage company organized as a real estate investment trust ("REIT"), today announced operating and financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2005.
The Company reported GAAP net income for the third quarter of 2005 of $8.7 million, or $0.30 per diluted share. For the nine months ended September 30, 2005, GAAP net income was $32.8 million, or $1.44 per diluted share. Adjusted net income for the third quarter of 2005 was $10.2 million, or $0.36 per diluted share. For the nine months ended September 30, 2005, adjusted net income was $27.0 million, or $1.19 per diluted share. Net income and adjusted net income per diluted share are based upon weighted average outstanding shares of 28.4 million for the third quarter and 22.8 million for the nine- month period. Additional operating information is included in the "Operating Statistics Table" provided later in this press release.
Doug Naidus, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, commented, "We are pleased to report that the Company is performing well in a challenging environment. We continue to include only carefully selected, high credit quality assets in our 100% self-originated portfolio, as indicated by our recent announcement that we are slowing the further growth of our loan portfolio. Our mortgage bank continues to achieve record results, paced by the 100% plus year-over-year growth in our mortgage funding volume. We believe that the Company ranked among the top 20 lenders nationally in loan originations for the third quarter."
Mr. Naidus continued, "Despite overall growth of 45% quarter over quarter, we did not surpass our third quarter sub-prime loan origination guidance due to the extraordinary pressure on the gain on sale margins during the third quarter. Given our commitment to continuing to operate our sub-prime business unit profitably, we have guided to flat to lower sub prime volume in the fourth quarter as we expect these conditions will persist."
Mortgage Banking Financial and Operating Highlights:
-- For the third quarter ended September 30, 2005, MortgageIT, Inc., the
Company's mortgage banking subsidiary, had pre-tax income of $16.0
million. After-tax income, prior to eliminations, totaled $8.9 million.
Net of tax and the elimination of the gain on sale relating to $977
million of loans transferred to the REIT portfolio, the mortgage bank
earned $1.6 million or $0.06 per share.
-- Third quarter sub-prime volume was $1.3 billion, within the Company's
prior guidance of $1.1 billion to $1.3 billion.
-- Gain on sale margin for loans sold to third parties during the quarter
ended September 30, 2005 was approximately 93 basis points (Bps). A
breakdown between prime and sub-prime margins can be found in the
"Operating Statistics Table" provided later in this press release.
Portfolio Financial and Operating Highlights:
-- During the third quarter of 2005, the Company transferred $977 million
of self-originated ARM loans to its investment portfolio. As of
September 30, 2005, the Company had an investment portfolio of $4.7
billion, of which $4.1 billion was securitized. The portfolio had an
average balance of $4.2 billion during the third quarter. On October
25, 2005, the Company closed a $905 million securitization, bringing
the securitized portfolio to approximately $5.0 billion. The portfolio
continues to consist entirely of 6 month traditional ARMs and hybrid 3
year and 5 year ARMs which do not carry a negative amortization
feature.
-- Adjusted net interest margin on the loan portfolio was 122 Bps during
the third quarter, down from 145 Bps in the second quarter. Adjusted
return on assets ("ROA") on the portfolio was 79 Bps in the third
quarter, down from 92 Bps in the second quarter. Third quarter adjusted
net interest margin and ROA were negatively impacted by increased loan
basis amortization due to faster prepayment speeds.
-- The portfolio earned $8.6 million, or $0.30 per share in adjusted
earnings.
Outlook and Guidance
-- As previously disclosed, the Company expects to maintain the size of
its investment portfolio at approximately $5.0 billion during the
fourth quarter.
-- As previously announced, the Company expects to pay a fourth quarter
dividend of $0.48 per share, unchanged from dividends paid for the
first three quarters of 2005.
-- The Company expects to report loan funding volume of approximately $8.5
to $9.0 billion in the fourth quarter of 2005, which would represent an
increase of 94% to 105% over the fourth quarter of 2004.
-- The Company expects to report sub-prime loan funding volume of
approximately $900 million to $1.2 billion in the fourth quarter.
-- The Company has fully assessed the impact of Hurricane Katrina on the
Company's assets and, given its minimal exposure in the affected areas,
it anticipates no material financial effect on the Company's business.
Adjusted Financial Measures
Adjusted net income, adjusted net interest margin, adjusted return on assets, and adjusted earnings per share (diluted) are non-GAAP financial measures which are reported by the Company in addition to net income and earnings per share (diluted) as prepared in accordance with GAAP. As indicated in its first quarter 2005 release, during the first quarter of 2005, the Company did not qualify under the Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" ("FAS 133") with respect to certain hedging activities. The non-GAAP financial measures reported by the Company are presented as if the Company qualified under FAS 133 in all periods. If the Company qualified under FAS 133, gains and losses on derivative hedges would have been deferred and amortized over the hedge period. Since the Company did not qualify under FAS 133, both realized and unrealized gains and losses were recognized in GAAP earnings in prior periods. Management believes that by adjusting net income in this manner, the non-GAAP measures provide a useful gauge of the Company's operating performance because adjusted net income highlights that portion of the Company's reported earnings that is more likely to be ongoing in nature.
