Item 8.01Other Events.

On March 28, 2022, Home Point Financial Corporation (“HPF”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Home Point Capital Inc. (the “Company”), completed the sale of servicing rights relating to certain single family mortgage loans (“MSRs”) serviced for the Government National Mortgage Association (“Ginnie Mae”) with an aggregate unpaid principal balance of approximately $1.8 billion (the “Ginnie Mae Servicing Rights”) to an approved Ginnie Mae issuer.

On March 31, 2022, HPF completed the sale of MSRs serviced for the Federal National Mortgage Association (“Fannie Mae”) and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“Freddie Mac,” and together with Fannie Mae, the “Agencies”) with an aggregate unpaid principal balance of approximately $31.3 billion (the “Agency Servicing Rights” and, together with the Ginnie Mae Servicing Rights, the “Servicing Rights”) to an approved Agency seller and servicer.

The total purchase price for the Servicing Rights was approximately $394.5 million, which is subject to certain customary holdbacks and adjustments. The sale represents approximately 25.7% of the Company’s total mortgage servicing portfolio as of December 31, 2021. The Agencies and Ginnie Mae, as applicable, consented to the transfers of the Servicing Rights.

Cautionary Note on Forward-Looking Statements

This communication contains certain “forward-looking statements,” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. All statements other than statements of historical fact are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements relating to potential purchase price holdbacks and adjustments and other similar matters. Words such as “anticipates,” “expects,” “intends,” “plans,” “predicts,” “believes,” “seeks,” “estimates,” “could,” “would,” “will,” “may,” “can,” “continue,” “potential,” “should” and the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology often identify forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance, are based upon assumptions, and are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from the results contemplated by the forward-looking statements, including the risks discussed in Part I, Item 1A. of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, which was filed on March 17, 2022. Factors, risks, and uncertainties that could cause actual outcomes and results to be materially different from those contemplated by forward-looking statements include, among others: (1) the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company’s business; (2) the dependence of HPF’s loan origination and servicing revenues on macroeconomic and U.S. residential real estate market conditions; (3) counterparty risk; (4) the requirement to make servicing advances that can be subject to delays in recovery or may not be recoverable in certain circumstances; (5) HPF’s ability to detect misconduct and fraud; (6) risks associated with higher risk loans that HPF services; (7) risks associated with HPF’s acquisition of mortgage servicing rights; and (8) the impact of HPF’s counterparties terminating HPF’s servicing rights under which HPF conducts servicing activities. Many of the important factors that will determine these results are beyond the Company’s ability to control or predict. Readers are cautioned not to put undue reliance on any forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this communication. Except as otherwise required by law, the Company does not assume any obligation to publicly update or release any revisions to these forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this communication or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.
