Business Description

Nationstar Mortgage Holdings Inc is a Delaware corporation formed in1994. It provides residential mortgage loan services. Its servicing portfolio consists of around 389,000 loans. It services residential mortgage loans throughout the United States. Loan servicing primarily involves the calculation, collection and remittance of principal and interest payments, the administration of mortgage escrow accounts, the collection of insurance claims, the administration of foreclosure procedures, the management of real estate owned and the disbursement of required advances. It utilizes a flexible, customer-centric mortgage servicing model that focuses on asset performance through increased personal contact with borrowers and loss mitigation tools designed to decrease borrower delinquencies and defaults and to increase borrower repayment performance with a goal of home ownership preservation. Its Servicing segment produces recurring, fee-based revenues based upon contractually established servicing fees. Servicing fees consist of an amount based on either the unpaid principal balance of the loans serviced or a per-loan fee amount and also include ancillary fees such as late fees. In addition, it earns interest income on amounts deposited in collection accounts and amounts held in escrow to pay property taxes and insurance, which it refers to as float income. It also generates incentive fees from owners of the loans that it services for meeting certain delinquency and loss goals and for arranging successful loss mitigation programs. Moreover, it earns incentive fees from the U.S. Treasury for loans that it successfully modifies within the parameters of the Home Affordable Modification Program (HAMP) and other assistance programs it sponsors. In addition to its Servicing business, it has successfully launched and recently expanded its complementary businesses that provides significant opportunity for incremental earnings and require minimal capital investment. It provides these services by leveraging its servicing expertise for its current clients for either a base and/or incentive fee. Following competitive strengths differentiate it from its competitors: Attractive Business Model with Strong Cash Flow, Scalable, Proven Platform Coupled with Asset Evaluation and Acquisition Expertise, Culture of Credit Loss Ownership and Accountability & Strong and Seasoned Management Team. Its primary goal is to grow its servicing portfolio by employing a high touch approach on the back-end to increase the value of its clients' loans by reducing delinquencies and credit losses, and operating the front-end with maximum efficiency through scale and technology. It plans to grow its revenue, operating cash flow and net income by employing the following business strategies: Capitalize on Industry Opportunities, Maintain and Grow its Fee-Based Servicing Portfolio, Engage in Opportunistic Acquisitions and New Business Opportunities & Continue To Expand its Adjacen
