101 0 Kommentare Velocity Financial, Inc. Reports First Quarter 2023 Results

Velocity Financial, Inc. (NYSE: VEL) (Velocity or the Company), a leader in business purpose loans, reported net income of $10.6 million and core net income of $11.4 million for 1Q23, compared to net income of $3.1 million and core net income of $12.4 million in 1Q22. Earnings and core earnings per diluted share were $0.31 and $0.33, respectively, for 1Q23, compared to $0.09 and $0.36, for 1Q22.

“Velocity’s first quarter results demonstrate the resiliency of our business model and our ability to deliver strong results in dynamic market conditions,” said Chris Farrar, President and CEO. “Our first quarter results included strong portfolio income and improved fundamentals, setting the stage for continued solid performance in 2023. Net interest margin increased by 39 basis points on a sequential-quarter basis, and gains from nonperforming loan resolutions returned to more normalized levels, resulting in solid net income growth. We continued to enjoy support from the capital markets with the April issuance of our VCC 2023-1R securitization collateralized by retained tranches of previous VCC securitizations. This transaction provides a new source of non-mark-to-market liquidity for the company at cost-effective levels and enhances our ability to capitalize on opportunities for growth. We expect to increase production from first quarter levels for the remainder of 2023 and are optimistic regarding our ability to deliver strong earnings growth in the future.”

⁽¹⁾ Core income and Core EPS are a non-GAAP measures that exclude nonrecurring and unusual activities from GAAP net income.

⁽²⁾ Liquidity includes unrestricted cash reserves of $39.4 million and available liquidity in unfinanced loans of $5.9 million.

Discussion of results:

Operating expenses totaled $21.5 million in 1Q23, an increase of 75.7% from 1Q22. The variance to prior year results is mostly attributable to our FVO accounting election
- Compensation expense totaled $10.0 million, compared to $5.3 million for 1Q22. In 1Q23, compensation expense related to loan originations was expensed as incurred under fair value accounting rather than deferred over the life of the loan under amortized cost accounting in 1Q22.
- Origination (income)/expenses improved by $644 thousand compared to the prior year resulting from the election of fair value accounting
- Securitization issuance costs in 1Q23 totaled $2.6 million. Securitization issuance costs are now expensed under fair value accounting and were previously deferred
- Loan servicing expense growth was driven by the increase in securitizations outstanding to $2.9 billion as of March 31, 2023, from $2.1 billion as of March 31, 2022

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement our financial statements presented in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), the Company uses non-GAAP core net income and core diluted EPS, which are non-GAAP financial measures.

Non-GAAP core net income and non-GAAP core diluted EPS are non-GAAP financial measures that represent our net income (loss) and net income (loss) per diluted share, adjusted to eliminate the effect of certain costs incurred from activities that are not normal recurring operating expenses, such as COVID-stressed charges and recoveries of loan loss provision, nonrecurring debt amortization, the impact of operational measures taken to address the COVID-19 pandemic and workforce reduction costs, and costs associated with acquisitions. To calculate non-GAAP core diluted EPS, we use the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding that is used to calculate net income per diluted share under GAAP.

We have included non-GAAP core net income and non-GAAP core diluted EPS because they are key measures used by our management to evaluate our operating performance, generate future operating plans, and make strategic decisions, including those relating to operating expenses and the allocation of internal resources. Accordingly, we believe that non-GAAP core net income and non-GAAP core diluted EPS provide useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our operating results in the same manner as our management and board of directors. In addition, they provide useful measures for period-to-period comparisons of our business, as they remove the effect of certain items that we expect to be nonrecurring.

These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures are not based on any standardized methodology prescribed by GAAP and are not necessarily comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies.

For more information on Core Income, please refer to the section of this press release below titled “Adjusted Financial Metric Reconciliation to GAAP Net Income” at the end of this press release.
