Discussion of results:

Net income for 2Q21 totaled $9.45 million, an increase from $3.40 million in 1Q21, driven by higher interest income resulting from strong resolutions of nonperforming loans and HFI portfolio growth

‒ GAAP net income in 2Q21 included $6.98 million of interest income from the realization of contractual interest, default interest, and prepayment fees on nonperforming loans in 2Q21, a 59% increase from 1Q21
Core income for 2Q21 totaled $8.45 million, which reflects the exclusion of $1.00 million from an improvement in the macroeconomic loan loss forecast
Portfolio NIM in 2Q21 was 4.83%, a 73 bps increase from 4.10% in 1Q21, driven by an increase in interest income received from nonperforming loans and 20 bps decrease in the weighted average cost of funds
The pretax return on equity was 22.57% in 2Q21, an increase from 8.27% for 1Q21

‒ HFI portfolio growth driven by solid production activity, partially offset by higher prepayment activity and loan sales
The weighted average total portfolio yield was 8.90% in 2Q21, an increase of 49 bps from 1Q21, primarily driven by the increased realization of delinquent and default interest from nonperforming loan resolutions and improved portfolio performance
Portfolio related debt cost in 2Q21 was 4.81%, a decrease of 20 bps from 1Q21, primarily driven by the issuance of Velocity's VCC 2021-1 securitization in 2Q21, at a weighted average cost of 1.73%

⁽³⁾ Annualized

Discussion of results:

Nonperforming loans totaled $315.54 million as of June 30, 2021, or 15.30% of loans HFI, compared to $335.05 million as of March 31, 2021, or 16.83% of loans HFI

‒ The quarter-over-quarter improvement was driven by resolution of 17.37% of nonperforming loan UPB as of March 31, 2021, 10.58% through payoff and 6.79% were brought back to performing (accrual) status. These resolutions in 2Q21 realized all delinquent contractual interest in addition to default interest and prepayment fees.
Charge-offs in 2Q21 totaled $917.6 thousand compared to $68.78 thousand in 1Q21

‒ Nearly half, or $420.47 thousand of the 2Q21 charge-off amount was related to one loan that transferred to REO, all or part of which could be recovered upon sale of the REO
The reserve for loan losses was $3.96 million as of June 30, 2021, compared to $5.88 million as of March 31, 2021

‒ The recovery of loan loss provision in 2Q21 reflects an improvement in the macroeconomic component of the loan loss reserve resulting from a more optimistic outlook for the U.S. economy
Capitalized interest recovered on COVID forbearance loans granted a deferral through the end of 2Q21 totaled $1.27 million, with a remaining balance of $7.37 million as of June 30, 2021. None of the capitalized interest has been forgiven.

Discussion of results:

Securitization balances as of June 30, 2021, totaled $1.58 billion, an increase from $1.47 billion as of March 31, 2021, driven by the issuance of Velocity's VCC 2021-1 securitization in May
The VCC 2021-1 transaction totaled $264.52 million in UPB and priced at a weighted average fixed rate of 1.73%

‒ Broad investor demand tightened spreads for the entire capital stack and lowered our weighted average coupon by over one percent as compared to our pre-COVID VCC 2020-1 transaction

(1)		Annualized.
(2)		Net interest spread — portfolio related is the difference between the rate earned on our loan portfolio and the interest rates paid on our portfolio-related debt.
(3)		Net interest spread — total company is the difference between the rate earned on our loan portfolio and the interest rates paid on our total debt.
(4)		The debt issuance cost amortization was higher for the three months ended March 31, 2021, as a result of a lower average outstanding borrowing balance from a new financing facility.
(5)		Excluding the one-time debt issuance cost write-off of $2.9 million and prepayment penalties of $1.6 million associated with the $78.0 million payoff of our corporate debt in February 2021, the corporate debt average rate would have been 10.49%; net interest spread — total company would have been 3.06%; and net interest margin — total company would have been 3.52% for the three months ended March 31, 2021.
