Rocket Companies
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Combined Financial Statements
(Dollars in Thousands, Except Shares and Per Share)
(Unaudited)

1. Business, Basis of Presentation, and Accounting Policies

The accompanying condensed combined financial statements include all of the assets, liabilities and results of operations of twelve subsidiaries of Rock Holdings Inc. (“Rock Holdings”, or “RHI”), which are Quicken Loans, LLC, EFB Holdings Inc. (“Edison Financial”), Lendesk Canada Holdings Inc., LMB HoldCo LLC (“Core Digital Media”), RCRA Holdings LLC (“Rock Connections” and “Rocket Auto”), RockTech Canada Inc., Rock Central LLC, Rocket Homes Real Estate LLC (“Rocket Homes”), RockLoans Holdings LLC (“Rocket Loans”), Amrock Inc. (“Amrock”), Nexsys Technologies LLC (“Nexsys”), and Woodward Capital Management LLC, (collectively, the “Combined Businesses”, “Rocket Companies”, “we”, “us”, “our”, or the “Company”).
As used herein, “Rocket Mortgage” refers to either the Rocket Mortgage brand or platform, or the Quicken Loans business, as the context allows

In April 2020 Quicken Loans Inc. converted its corporate structure to an LLC and changed its name from Quicken Loans Inc. to Quicken Loans, LLC.

In July 2020 Amrock Inc. converted its corporate structure to an LLC and changed its name from Amrock Inc. to Amrock, LLC.

Basis of Presentation
The Combined Businesses have historically operated as part of RHI and not as a stand alone entity. The condensed combined financial statements represent the results of operations, financial position, cash flows and changes in equity of the subsidiaries of RHI mentioned above, prepared on a stand-alone basis and have been derived from the consolidated financial statements and accounting records of RHI. All revenues and expenses as well as assets and liabilities that are either legally attributable to us or directly associated with our business activities are included in the condensed combined financial statements. Net parent investment represents RHI’s interest in the recorded net assets of the Company. All significant transactions between the Company and RHI have been included in the accompanying condensed combined financial statements and are reflected in the accompanying Condensed Combined Statements of Changes in Equity as “Net transfers to/from parent” and in the accompanying Condensed Combined Balance Sheets within “Net parent investment.”
All significant intercompany transactions and accounts between the businesses comprising the Company have been eliminated in the accompanying condensed combined financial statements. Our condensed combined financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”).
All transactions and accounts between RHI and the Company have a history of settlement or are expected to be settled for cash, and are reflected as related party transactions. For further details of the Company’s related party transactions refer to Note 6, Transactions with Related Parties.
The condensed combined financial statements may not include all of the expenses that would have been incurred had we been a stand-alone company during the periods presented and may not reflect our condensed combined results of operations, financial position and cash flows had we been a stand-alone company during the periods presented. The amount of actual expenses that would have been incurred if we had operated as a stand alone company would depend on a number of factors, including our chosen organizational structure. We also may incur additional costs associated with being a stand-alone, publicly listed company that were not included in the expense allocations and, therefore, would result in additional costs that are not reflected in our historical statements of income and comprehensive income, balance sheets and cash flows.

Our condensed combined financial statements are unaudited and presented in U.S. dollars. They have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. Our Condensed Combined Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2019 has been derived from our audited combined financial statements at that date. Our condensed combined financial statements should be read in conjunction with our combined financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2019, which include a complete set of footnote disclosures, including our significant accounting policies. We believe the assumptions underlying the condensed combined financial statements, including the assumptions regarding allocation of expenses from RHI are reasonable. The executive management compensation expense has been allocated based on time incurred for services provided to the Combined Businesses. Total costs allocated to us for these services were $44,997 and $11,231 for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, and $86,734 and $21,930 for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and were included in salaries, commissions and team member benefits in our Condensed Combined Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income. In our opinion, these condensed combined financial statements include all normal and recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair statement of our results of operations, financial position and cash flows for the periods presented. However, our results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for a full fiscal year or for any other future period.
Management Estimates
The preparation of condensed combined financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed combined financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Although management is not currently aware of any factors that would significantly change its estimates and assumptions, actual results may differ from these estimates.
Subsequent Events
In preparing these condensed combined financial statements, the Company evaluated events and transactions for potential recognition or disclosure through the date these condensed combined financial statements were issued. Refer to Note 5, Borrowings for disclosures on changes to the Company’s debt agreements that occurred subsequent to June 30, 2020, which includes additional details on the newly executed $950,000 syndicate revolving credit agreement.
In July 2020, the Company sold MSRs relating to certain single-family mortgage loans with an aggregate unpaid principal balance of approximately $20,000,000 as of June 30, 2020. The sale represented approximately 5.3% of the Company’s total single-family mortgage servicing portfolio as of June 30, 2020.

At the time of issuance of this report, the direct and indirect impacts that the COVID-19 pandemic and recent market volatility may have on the Company’s financial statements are uncertain. The Company cannot reasonably estimate the magnitude of the impact these events may ultimately have on its results of operations, liquidity or financial position. However, management of the Company is unaware of any known adverse material risk or event that should be recognized in the financial statements at this time.
IPO and Reorganization

On August 10, 2020, Rocket Companies, Inc. completed the initial public offering of 100,000,000 shares of its Class A common stock, $0.00001 par value per share, at an offering price of $18.00 per share. Rocket Companies, Inc. received net proceeds from the IPO of approximately $1,760,000 after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions, all of which was used to purchase 100,000,000 non-voting membership units of RKT Holdings, LLC (the “Holdings units”) and shares of Class D common stock from RHI. Rocket Companies, Inc. is a publicly traded company whose Class A common stock is traded on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol “RKT”. Prior to the completion of the offering, RHI and certain RHI subsidiaries consummated an internal reorganization.

As a result of the IPO and the reorganization:
Rocket Companies, Inc. is the sole managing member of RKT Holdings, LLC (“Holdings”), which owns direct interests in (a) Rocket Mortgage and (b) various other former direct subsidiaries of RHI.

8


Rocket Companies, Inc. is a holding company which has no material assets other than its ownership of Holdings and its indirect interests in the subsidiaries of Holdings and has no independent means of generating revenue or cash flow.

Dan Gilbert, RHI, and Rocket Companies, Inc. are members of Holdings.

No shares of Class B common stock and no shares of Class C common stock were outstanding at the completion of the offering.

Holdings is treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes and, as such, is itself generally not subject to U.S. federal income tax under current U.S. tax laws. Each member of Holdings will be required to take into account for U.S. federal income tax purposes its distributive share of the items of income, gain, loss and deduction of Holdings.

1,883,279,483 shares of Rocket Companies, Inc. Class D common stock, 100,372,565 shares of Rocket Companies, Inc. Class A common stock, and 1,983,652,048 Holdings Units were outstanding. An additional 16,729,253 shares of Rocket Companies, Inc. Class A common stock were reserved for equity-based awards.

RHI owns (i) 1,882,177,661 Holdings Units, collectively representing approximately 95% of the economic interest in Holdings and (ii) 1,882,177,661 shares of Rocket Companies, Inc. Class D common stock, collectively representing 79% of the combined voting power of Rocket Companies, Inc. common stock.

Dan Gilbert owns (i) 1,101,822 Holdings Units, collectively representing 0.06% of the economic interest in Holdings and (ii) 28,334 shares of Rocket Companies, Inc Class A common stock and 1,101,822 shares of Rocket Companies, Inc. Class D common stock, collectively representing approximately 2% of the combined voting power of Rocket Companies, Inc. common stock.

Gilbert Affiliates own 344,231 shares of Rocket Companies, Inc. Class A common stock, collectively representing approximately 0.06% of the combined voting power of Rocket Companies, Inc. common stock.

The public stockholders (i) own 100,000,000 shares of Class A common stock, which represent approximately 19% of the combined voting power of Rocket Companies, Inc. common stock, and (ii) through Rocket Companies, Inc.’s ownership of Holdings units, indirectly hold approximately 5% of the economic interest in Holdings and its subsidiaries.

The financial results of Holdings and its subsidiaries will be consolidated with Rocket Companies, Inc., and approximately 95% of the consolidated net earnings (loss) and net assets will be allocated to the non-controlling interest to reflect the entitlement of RHI and Dan Gilbert to a portion of the consolidated net earnings (loss).

Stock-Based Compensation

In connection with this offering, equity-based awards were issued under the Rocket Companies, Inc. 2020 Omnibus Incentive Plan including 16,729,253 restricted stock units and stock options to purchase 26,373,361 shares of our Class A common stock at an exercise price equal to the price to the public in the initial public offering. RSUs vest over one to three years. Stock options vest one third on the first anniversary, and then ratably on a monthly basis for the next twenty-four months.

Distributions

Subsequent to June 30, 2020, cash distributions were made to RHI in the total amount of $2,260,000. The following unaudited pro forma balance sheet line items as of June 30, 2020 reflect these distributions as if such distributions were declared and paid on June 30, 2020.

Total equity$5,536,177 $(2,260,000)$3,276,177 

(1) The Company paid capital distributions to RHI subsequent to June 30, 2020. The $2,260,000 distribution was fully funded through the use of cash on hand as of June 30, 2020 and cash flows generated from operations between July 1, 2020 and the initial public offering. For purposes of the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet, the payment of the distributions is reflected as a reduction to net parent investment of $2,260,000, a reduction to cash and cash equivalents of $749,549, and the recognition of a non-interest bearing payable of $1,510,451. The pro forma cash and cash equivalents balance after giving effect to this adjustment represents the Company's estimated ending cash and cash equivalents balance immediately prior to the reorganization transactions and initial public offering.

Tax Receivable Agreement

The purchase of Holdings Units (along with corresponding shares of our Class D common stock) from RHI using the net proceeds from the offering, future exchanges by RHI or Dan Gilbert (or its transferees or other assignees) of Holdings Units and corresponding shares of Class D common stock or Class C common stock for shares of our Class B common stock or Class A common stock, and future purchases of Holdings Units (along with the corresponding shares of our Class D common stock or Class C common stock) from RHI or Dan Gilbert (or its transferees or other assignees) are expected to produce favorable tax attributes for us. These tax attributes would not be available to us in the absence of those transactions. In connection with the reorganization transactions, Rocket Companies, Inc. entered into a tax receivable agreement with RHI and Dan Gilbert that will obligate us to make payments to RHI and Dan Gilbert generally equal to 90% of the applicable cash savings that we actually realize as a result of these tax attributes and tax attributes resulting from payments made under the tax receivable agreement. We will retain the benefit of the remaining 10% of these tax savings. There is a possibility that under certain circumstances not all of the 90% of the applicable cash savings will be paid to the selling or exchanging holder of Holdings Units at the time described above. If we determine that such circumstances apply and all or a portion of such applicable tax savings is in doubt, we will pay to the holders of such Holdings Units the amount attributable to the portion of the applicable tax savings that we determine is not in doubt and pay the remainder at such time as we reasonably determine the actual tax savings or that the amount is no longer in doubt. Rocket Companies, Inc. recorded amounts payable pursuant to the Tax Receivable Agreement to RHI of approximately $512,000 at August 10, 2020.

Acquisition Agreement

On August 5, 2020, Rocket Companies, Inc. entered into an acquisition agreement with RHI and its direct subsidiary Amrock Holdings Inc. pursuant to which we acquired Amrock Title Insurance Company ("ATI"), a title insurance underwriting business, for total aggregate consideration of $14,400 that consisted of 800,000 Holdings Units and shares of Rocket Companies, Inc. Class D common stock valued at the price to the public in this offering of $18.00 per share (the number of shares issued equals the purchase price divided by the price to public in our initial public offering). ATI's net income for the year ended December 31, 2019 was $4,700. The ATI acquisition closed on August 14, 2020, and the Company issued the 800,000 Class D and Holding Units to RHI. The acquisition will be accounted for as a common control transaction.

Revenue Recognition
The following revenue streams fall within the scope of ASC Topic 606—Revenue from Contracts with Customers and are disaggregated hereunder:

Rock Connections contact center revenue—The Company recognizes contact center revenue for communication services including client support and sales.

Loans subject to repurchase right from Ginnie Mae

For certain loans sold to Ginnie Mae, the Company as the servicer has the unilateral right to repurchase any individual loan in a Ginnie Mae securitization pool if that loan meets defined criteria, including being delinquent more than 90 days. Once the Company has the unilateral right to repurchase the delinquent loan, the Company has effectively regained control over the loan and must re-recognize the loan on the Condensed Combined Balance Sheet and establish a corresponding finance liability regardless of the Company's intention to repurchase the loan.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-13, “Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments,” which introduced an expected credit loss model for the impairment of financial assets, measured at amortized cost. The model replaces the probable, incurred loss model for those assets and broadens the information an entity must consider in developing its expected credit loss estimate for assets measures at amortized cost. On January 1, 2020, the Company adopted ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments—
11


Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments and subsequent amendments to the initial guidance under ASU 2018-19, ASU 2019-04 and ASU 2019-05 (collectively, “Topic 326”) with no material impact to our combined financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
Based upon management’s scoping analysis, the Company determined that money market funds, notes, other receivables, and Ginnie Mae early buyout loans are within the scope of ASU 2016-13. For the Ginnie Mae early buyout loans, the Company determined that the guarantee from the Federal Housing Administration (“FHA”) or Veterans Affairs (“VA”) limits the Company’s exposure to potential credit-related losses to an immaterial amount. For other assets, primarily money market funds, the Company determined that these are short-term in nature (less than one year) and of high credit quality, and the estimated credit-related losses over the life of these receivables are also immaterial. For each of the aforementioned financial instruments carried at amortized cost, the Company enhanced its processes to consider and include the requirements of ASU 2016-13, as applicable, into the determination of credit-related losses.
In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-03, Codification Improvements to Financial Instruments (“ASU 2020-03”). ASU 2020-03 improves and clarifies various financial instruments topics to increase shareholder awareness and make the standards easier to understand and apply by eliminating inconsistencies and providing clarifications. The Company adopted ASU 2020-03 upon issuance, with no material effect on our combined financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
Accounting Standards Issued but Not Yet Adopted
In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. The amendments to Topic 740 include the removal of certain exceptions to the general principles of ASC 740 in such areas as intraperiod tax allocation, year to date losses in interim periods and deferred tax liabilities related to outside basis differences. Amendments also include simplification in other areas such as interim recognition of enactment of tax laws or rate changes and accounting for a franchise tax (or similar tax) that is partially based on income. This standard will be effective for the Company on January 1, 2021. Early adoption is permitted in any interim or annual period, with any adjustments reflected as of the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption. If an entity chooses to early adopt, it must adopt all changes as a result of the ASU. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact that the adoption of this ASU will have on the combined financial statements and related disclosures.
In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting. Subject to meeting certain criteria, the new guidance provides optional expedients and exceptions to applying contract modification accounting under existing U.S. GAAP, to address the expected phase out of the London Inter-bank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) by the end of 2021. This guidance is effective upon issuance and allows application to contract changes as early as January 1, 2020. The Company is in the process of reviewing its funding facilities and financing facilities that utilize LIBOR as the reference rate and is currently evaluating the potential impact that the adoption of this ASU will have on the combined financial statements and related disclosures.
2. Fair Value Measurements
Fair value is the price that would be received if an asset were sold or the price that would be paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between willing market participants at the measurement date. Required disclosures include classification of fair value measurements within a three-level hierarchy (Level 1, Level 2, and Level 3). Classification of a fair value measurement within the hierarchy is dependent on the classification and significance of the inputs used to determine the fair value measurement. Observable inputs are those that are observed, implied from, or corroborated with externally available market information. Unobservable inputs represent the Company’s estimates of market participants’ assumptions.
Fair value measurements are classified in the following manner:
Level 1—Valuation is based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date.
Level 2—Valuation is based on either observable prices for identical assets or liabilities in inactive markets, observable prices for similar assets or liabilities, or other inputs that are derived directly from, or through correlation to, observable market data at the measurement date.
12


Level 3—Valuation is based on the Company’s internal models using assumptions at the measurement date that a market participant would use.
In determining fair value measurement, the Company uses observable inputs whenever possible. The level of a fair value measurement within the hierarchy is dependent on the lowest level of input that has a significant impact on the measurement as a whole. If quoted market prices are available at the measurement date or are available for similar instruments, such prices are used in the measurements. If observable market data is not available at the measurement date, judgment is required to measure fair value.
The following is a description of measurement techniques for items recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. There were no material items recorded at fair value on a nonrecurring basis as of June 30, 2020 or December 31, 2019.
Mortgage loans held for sale: Loans held for sale that trade in active secondary markets are valued using Level 2 measurements derived from observable market data, including market prices of securities backed by similar mortgage loans adjusted for certain factors to approximate the fair value of a whole mortgage loan, including the value attributable to mortgage servicing and credit risk. Loans held for sale for which there is little to no observable trading activity of similar instruments are valued using Level 3 measurements based upon dealer price quotes.
IRLCs: The fair value of IRLCs is based on current market prices of securities backed by similar mortgage loans (as determined above under mortgage loans held for sale), net of costs to close the loans, subject to the estimated loan funding probability, or “pull-through factor”. Given the significant and unobservable nature of the pull-through factor, IRLCs are classified as Level 3.
MSRs: The fair value of MSRs (including MSRs collateral for financing liability and MSRs financing liability) is determined using a valuation model that calculates the present value of estimated net future cash flows. The model includes estimates of prepayment speeds, discount rate, cost to service, float earnings, contractual servicing fee income, and ancillary income among others. These fair value measurements are classified as Level 3.
Forward commitments: The Company’s forward commitments are valued based on quoted prices for similar assets in an active market with inputs that are observable and are classified within Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy.
Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis
The table below shows a summary of financial statement items that are measured at estimated fair value on a recurring basis, including assets measured under the fair value option. There were no material transfers of assets or liabilities recorded at fair value on a recurring basis between Levels 1, 2 or 3 during the six months ended June 30, 2020 or the year ended December 31, 2019.

Fair Value Option
The following is the estimated fair value and unpaid principal balance (“UPB”) of mortgage loans held for sale that have contractual principal amounts and for which the Company has elected the fair value option. The fair value option was elected for mortgage loans held for sale as the Company believes fair value best reflects their expected future economic performance:

Disclosures of the fair value of certain financial instruments are required when it is practical to estimate the value. In cases where quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on estimates using present value or other valuation techniques.
The following table presents the carrying amounts and estimated fair value of financial liabilities that are not recorded at fair value on a recurring or nonrecurring basis. This table excludes cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, warehouse borrowings, and line of credit borrowing facilities as these financial instruments are highly liquid or short-term in nature and as a result, their carrying amounts approximate fair value:

Senior Notes, due 1/15/2028$993,853 $1,045,320 $992,779 $1,046,683 
The fair value of Senior Notes, was calculated using the observable bond price at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. The Senior Notes are classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.
3. Mortgage Servicing Rights
Mortgage servicing rights are recognized as assets on the Condensed Combined Balance Sheet when loans are sold and the associated servicing rights are retained. The Company maintains one class of MSR asset and has elected the fair value option. These MSRs are recorded at fair value, which is determined using a valuation model that calculates the present value of estimated future net servicing fee income. The model includes estimates of prepayment speeds, discount rate, cost to service, float earnings, contractual servicing fee income, and ancillary income and late fees, among others. These estimates are supported by market and economic data collected from various outside sources.
During 2019, the Company began using derivatives to economically hedge the risk of changes in the fair value of certain MSRs measured at fair value. The changes in the fair value of derivatives that serve to mitigate certain risks associated with the certain MSRs are recorded in current period earnings.
The following table summarizes changes to the MSR assets for the three and six months ended:

The total UPB of mortgage loans serviced, excluding subserviced loans, at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 was $346,870,713 and $311,718,188, respectively. The portfolio primarily consists of high quality performing agency and government (FHA and VA) loans. As of June 30, 2020, delinquent loans (defined as 60-plus days past-due) were 3.71% of our total portfolio.

During the third quarter of 2019, the Company sold MSRs with a book value of approximately $340,000 relating to certain single-family mortgage loans. Based on the contract terms, the sale of those MSRs did not qualify for sale accounting treatment under U.S. GAAP. As a result, the Company is required to retain the MSRs asset (i.e., MSRs collateral for financing liability) and the MSRs liability (i.e., MSRs financing liability) on the balance sheet until certain contractual provisions lapse after June 2020. These MSRs will continue to be reported on the balance sheet at fair value using a valuation methodology consistent with the Company’s method for valuing MSRs until those contractual provisions lapse. Furthermore, the net change in fair market value (“FMV”) of the MSRs asset and liability from this sale is captured within loan servicing (loss) income, net in the Condensed Combined Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income. During the second quarter of 2020, the Company had $14,911 of unrealized gains relating to the MSRs liability and an offsetting $14,911 of unrealized losses relating to the MSRs asset. Additionally, terms of the agreement require quarterly adjustments to the sales price for changes in prepayment rates at the time of sale for a period of one year. Depending on these prepayment speeds the Company may either receive or pay additional funds from this transaction. Furthermore, in the first quarter of 2020, the Company also sold MSRs with a book value of approximately $186,000 relating to certain single-family mortgage loans, which qualified for sale accounting treatment under U.S. GAAP. In the second quarter of 2020, the Company did not sell any MSRs.
The following is a summary of the weighted average discount rate and prepayment speed assumptions used to determine the fair value of MSRs as well as the expected life of the loans in the servicing portfolio:
June 30,
2020
December 31,
2019
Discount rate10.0 %10.0 %
Prepayment speeds19.2 %14.5 %
Life (in years)4.145.33
The key assumptions used to estimate the fair value of MSRs are prepayment speeds and the discount rate. Increases in prepayment speeds generally have an adverse effect on the value of MSRs as the underlying loans prepay faster. In a declining interest rate environment, the fair value of MSRs generally decreases as prepayments increase and therefore, the estimated life of the MSRs and related cash flows decrease. Decreases in prepayment speeds generally have a positive effect on the value of MSRs as the underlying loans prepay less frequently. In a rising interest rate environment, the fair value of MSRs generally increases as prepayments decrease and therefore, the estimated life of the MSRs and related cash flows increase. Increases in the discount rate result in a lower MSR value and decreases in the discount rate result in a higher MSR value. MSR uncertainties are hypothetical and do not always have a direct correlation with each assumption. Changes in one assumption may result in changes to another assumption, which might magnify or counteract the uncertainties.
The following table stresses the discount rate and prepayment speeds at two different data points:

Credit Risk
The Company is subject to credit risk associated with mortgage loans that it purchases and originates during the period of time prior to the sale of these loans. The Company considers credit risk associated with these loans to be insignificant as it holds the loans for a short period of time, which is, on average, approximately 17 days from the date of borrowing, and the market for these loans continues to be highly liquid. The Company is also subject to credit risk associated with mortgage loans it has repurchased as a result of breaches of representations and warranties during the period of time between repurchase and resale.
5. Borrowings
The Company maintains several funding facilities and other non-funding debt as shown in the tables below. Interest rates are based on LIBOR (some have a floor) plus a spread, except for the $175,000 unsecured line of credit and the Senior Notes. The interest rate for each advance on the $175,000 unsecured line of credit is variable and is based on a margin over either a fixed one, two, or three-month LIBOR or a floating daily or 30 day LIBOR, or the lender’s prime rate, at the option of the Company. The commitment fee charged by lenders for each of the facilities is an annual fee and is calculated based on the committed line amount multiplied by a negotiated rate. The fee rate ranges from 0% to 0.75% among the facilities except for the Senior Notes, which has no commitment fee. The Company is required to maintain certain covenants, including minimum tangible net worth, minimum liquidity, maximum total debt or liabilities to net worth ratio, pretax net income requirements, and other customary debt covenants, as defined in the agreements. The Company was in compliance with all covenants as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019.
The amount owed and outstanding on the Company’s loan funding facilities fluctuates greatly based on its origination volume, the amount of time it takes the Company to sell the loans it originates, and the Company’s ability to use the cash to self-fund loans. In addition to self-funding, the Company may from time to time use surplus cash to “buy-down” the effective interest rate of certain loan funding facilities or to self-fund a portion of our loan originations. As of June 30, 2020, $429,914 of the Company’s cash was used to buy-down our funding facilities and self-fund, $265,000 of which are buy-down funds that are included in cash on the balance sheet and $164,914 of which is self-funding that reduces cash on the balance sheet. The Company has the right to withdraw the $265,000 at any time, unless a margin call has been made or a default has occurred under the relevant facilities. The Company has the right to transfer the $164,914 of self-funded loans on to a warehouse line or the early buy out line, provided that such loans meet the eligibility criteria to be placed on such warehouse line or the early buy out line and no default or margin call has been made on such line, the loans are further subject to any required haircuts, and are subject to its ability to borrow additional funds under the facility. A large, unanticipated margin call could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s liquidity. Furthermore, refer to Note 3, Mortgage Servicing Rights for additional information regarding the MSRs financing liability with the MSRs sold during the third quarter of 2019.
The terms of the Senior Notes restrict our ability and the ability of our subsidiary guarantors among other things to: (i) incur additional debt or issue preferred stock; (ii) pay dividends or make distributions in respect of capital stock;
18


(iii) purchase or redeem capital stock; (iv) make investments or other restricted payments; (v) sell assets; (vi) enter into transactions with affiliates; (vii) effect a consolidation or merger, taken as a whole; and (viii) designate our subsidiaries as unrestricted subsidiaries, unless certain conditions are met, as defined in the agreements.

The Combined Businesses of the Company is comprised of qualified Subchapter S subsidiary corporations and single member LLCs, which are generally not subject to U.S. Federal or state income taxes. Accordingly, its operating results are included in the income tax returns of its shareholders. However, certain states in which the Company operates have entity-level income taxes that are not passed to the shareholders. Accordingly, income tax expense is accrued for such entity-level income taxes.
For interim tax reporting, we estimate one single effective tax rate for tax jurisdictions not subject to a valuation allowance, which is applied to the year-to-date ordinary income/(loss). Tax effects of significant unusual or infrequently occurring items are excluded from the estimated annual effective tax rate calculation and recognized in the interim period in which they occur.

As part of the completion of the IPO, the Company will become a C-Corporation and will be subject to U.S. Federal, state and local income taxes with respect to its allocable share of net taxable income of Holdings. In addition, certain subsidiaries of Holdings will also be subject to U.S. Federal, state, local and Canadian income taxes.

9. Derivative Financial Instruments

The Company enters into interest rate lock commitments (“IRLCs”), forward commitments to sell mortgage loans and forward commitments to purchase loans, which are considered derivative financial instruments. These items are accounted for as free-standing derivatives and are included in the condensed combined balance sheets at fair value. The Company treats all of its derivative instruments as economic hedges; therefore, none of its derivative instruments qualify for designation as accounting hedges. Changes in the fair value of the IRLCs and forward commitments to sell mortgage loans are recorded in current period earnings and are included in gain on sale of loans, net in the Condensed Combined Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income. Forward commitments to purchase mortgage loans are recognized in current period earnings and are included in gain on sale of loans in the Condensed Combined Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income.
The Company enters into IRLCs to fund residential mortgage loans with its potential borrowers. These commitments are binding agreements to lend funds to these potential borrowers at specified interest rates within specified periods of time.
The fair value of IRLCs is derived from the fair value of similar mortgage loans or bonds, which is based on observable market data. Changes to the fair value of IRLCs are recognized based on changes in interest rates, changes in the probability that the commitment will be exercised, and the passage of time. The expected net future cash flows related to the associated servicing of the loan are included in the fair value measurement of rate locks.
IRLCs and uncommitted mortgage loans held for sale expose the Company to the risk that the value of the mortgage loans held and mortgage loans underlying the commitments may decline due to increases in mortgage interest rates during the life of the commitments. To protect against this risk, the Company uses forward loan sale commitments to economically hedge the risk of potential changes in the value of the loans. These derivative instruments are recorded at fair value. The Company expects that the changes in fair value of these derivative financial instruments will either fully or partially offset the changes in fair value of the IRLCs and uncommitted mortgage loans held for sale. The changes in the fair value of these derivatives are recorded in gain on sale of loans, net.
MSR assets (including the MSR value associated with outstanding IRLCs) that the Company plans to sell expose the Company to the risk that the value of the MSR asset may decline due to decreases in mortgage interest rates prior to the sale of these assets. To protect against this risk, the Company uses forward loan purchase commitments to economically hedge the risk of potential changes in the value of MSR assets that have been identified for sale. These derivative instruments are recorded at fair value. The Company expects that the changes in fair value of these derivative financial instruments will either fully or partially offset the changes in fair value of the MSR assets the Company intends to sell. The changes in fair value of these derivatives are recorded in the change in fair value of MSRs, net.
Forward commitments include to be announced (“TBA”) mortgage backed securities that have been aggregated at the counterparty level for presentation and disclosure purposes. Counterparty agreements contain a legal right to offset amounts due to and from the same counterparty under legally enforceable master netting agreements to settle with the same counterparty, on a net basis, as well as the right to obtain cash collateral. Forward commitments also include commitments to sell loans to counterparties and to purchase loans from counterparties at determined prices. Refer to Note 9, Derivative Financial Instruments for further information.
The Company uses forward commitments in hedging the interest rate risk exposure on its fixed and adjustable rate commitments. Utilization of forward commitments involves some degree of basis risk. Basis risk is defined as the risk that the hedged instrument’s price does not move in parallel with the increase or decrease in the market price of the hedged financial instrument. The Company calculates an expected hedge ratio to mitigate a portion of this risk. The Company’s derivative instruments are not designated as accounting hedging instruments, and therefore, changes in fair value are recorded in current period earnings. Hedging gains and losses are included in gain on sale of loans, net in the Combined Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income.

Counterparty Credit Risk

Credit risk is defined as the possibility that a loss may occur from the failure of another party to perform in accordance with the terms of the contract, which exceeds the value of existing collateral, if any. The Company attempts to limit its credit risk by dealing with creditworthy counterparties and obtaining collateral where appropriate.
The Company is exposed to credit loss in the event of contractual nonperformance by its trading counterparties and counterparties to its various over-the-counter derivative financial instruments noted in the above Notional and Fair Value discussion. The Company manages this credit risk by selecting only counterparties that it believes to be financially strong, spreading the credit risk among many such counterparties, placing contractual limits on the amount of unsecured credit extended to any single counterparty, and entering into netting agreements with the counterparties as appropriate.
The master netting agreements contain a legal right to offset amounts due to and from the same counterparty. Derivative assets in the Condensed Combined Balance Sheets represent derivative contracts in a gain position net of loss positions with the same counterparty and, therefore, also represent the Company’s maximum counterparty credit risk. The Company incurred no credit losses due to nonperformance of any of its counterparties during the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019.
10. Commitments, Contingencies, and Guarantees
Interest Rate Lock Commitments
IRLCs are agreements to lend to a client as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. The Company evaluates each client’s creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis.
The number of days from the date of the IRLC to expiration of fixed and variable rate lock commitments outstanding at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 was approximately 44 days on average.
The UPB of IRLCs was as follows:
June 30, 2020December 31, 2019
Fixed RateVariable RateFixed RateVariable Rate
IRLCs$60,868,152 $1,299,825 $20,577,282 $974,693 
Commitments to Sell Mortgage Loans
In the ordinary course of business, the Company enters into contracts to sell existing mortgage loans held for sale into the secondary market at specified future dates. The amount of commitments to sell existing loans at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 was $4,106,301 and $2,859,710, respectively.
Commitments to Sell Loans with Servicing Released
In the ordinary course of business, the Company enters into contracts to sell the MSRs of certain newly originated loans on a servicing released basis. In the event that a forward commitment is not filled and there has been an unfavorable market shift from the date of commitment to the date of settlement, the Company is contractually obligated to pay a pair-off fee on the undelivered balance. There were $2,747 and $78,446 of loans committed to be sold servicing released at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.

Balance at end of period$63,012 $55,242 $63,012 $55,242 
The maximum exposure under the Company’s representations and warranties would be the outstanding principal balance and any premium received on all loans ever sold by the Company, less any loans that have already been paid in full by the mortgagee, that have defaulted without a breach of representations and warranties, that have been indemnified via settlement or make-whole, or that have been repurchased. Additionally, the Company may receive relief of certain representation and warranty obligations on loans sold to Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac on or after January 1, 2013 if Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac satisfactorily concludes a quality control loan file review or if the borrower meets certain acceptable payment history requirements within 12 or 36 months after the loan is sold to Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac.
Property Taxes, Insurance, and Principal and Interest Payable
As a service to its clients, the Company administers escrow deposits representing undisbursed amounts received for payment of property taxes, insurance and principal, and interest on mortgage loans held for sale. Cash held by the Company for property taxes and insurance was $4,139,441 and $2,617,016, and for principal and interest was $9,834,764 and $6,726,793 at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. These amounts are not considered assets of the Company and, therefore, are excluded from the Condensed Combined Balance Sheets. The Company remains contingently liable for the disposition of these deposits.
Guarantees
As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company guaranteed the debt of another related party totaling $15,000, consisting of three separate guarantees of $5,000 each. As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company did not record a liability on the Condensed Combined Balance Sheets for these guarantees because it was not probable that the Company would be required to make payments under these guarantees.
Trademark License
The Company has a perpetual trademark license agreement with a third-party entity. This agreement requires annual payments by the Company based upon the income from the sale of loans generated under the Quicken Loans brand. Total licensing fees incurred and paid were $1,875 for each of the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, and $3,750 for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, which is the maximum amount allowable under the contract for the periods indicated and is classified in other expenses in the Condensed Combined Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income.
Legal
Rocket Companies, among other things, engages in mortgage lending, title and settlement services, and other financial technology services. Rocket Companies operates in a highly regulated industry and is routinely subject to various legal and administrative proceedings concerning matters that arise in the normal and ordinary course of business, including inquires, complaints, subpoenas, audits, examinations, investigations and potential enforcement actions from regulatory agencies and state attorney generals; state and federal lawsuits and putative class actions; and other litigation. Periodically, we assess our potential liabilities and contingencies in connection with outstanding legal and administrative proceedings utilizing the latest information available. While it is not possible to predict the outcome of any of these matters, based on our assessment of the facts and circumstances, we do not believe any of these matters, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows. However, actual outcomes may differ from those expected and could have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows in a future

period. Rocket Companies accrues for losses when they are probable to occur and such losses are reasonably estimable. Legal costs expected to be incurred are accounted for as they are incurred.
In 2018 an initial judgment was entered against the Quicken Loans and Amrock, formerly known as Title Source, Inc., for a certified class action lawsuit filed in the U.S. District Court of the Northern District of West Virginia. The lawsuit alleged that the defendants violated West Virginia state law by unconscionably inducing them (and a class of other West Virginians who received loans through Quicken Loans and appraisals through Amrock) into loans by including the borrower’s own estimated home values on appraisal order forms. The judge has ruled in favor of the plaintiffs on liability and the case is currently on appeal to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit. Quicken Loans and Amrock believe an unfavorable outcome to be reasonably possible but not probable based on rulings by the court, advice of counsel, their respective defenses, and other developments with an aggregate possible range of loss to be between zero and $15,000.
Quicken Loans is also defending itself against five putative Telephone Consumer Protection Act (“TCPA”) class action lawsuits. Quicken Loans denies the allegations in these cases and intends to vigorously defend itself. Quicken Loans has filed, or intends to file, a dispositive motion in each of these matters which, if granted, would result in a finding of no liability. Quicken Loans does not believe a loss is probable; therefore, no reserve has been recorded related to these matters. A range of possible loss cannot be estimated with any degree of reasonable certainty.
Amrock is currently involved in civil litigation related to a business dispute between Amrock and HouseCanary, Inc. (“HouseCanary”). The lawsuit was filed on April 12, 2016, by Amrock—Title Source, Inc. v. HouseCanary, Inc., No. 2016-CI-06300 (37th Civil District Court, San Antonio, Texas)—and included claims against HouseCanary for breach of contract and fraudulent inducement stemming from a contract between Amrock and HouseCanary whereby HouseCanary was obligated to provide Amrock with appraisal and valuation software and services. HouseCanary filed counterclaims against Amrock for, among other things, breach of contract, fraud, and misappropriation of trade secrets. On March 14, 2018, following trial of the claims in the lawsuit, a Bexar County, Texas, jury awarded $706,200 in favor of HouseCanary and rejected Amrocks’ claims against HouseCanary. The district court entered judgment in favor of HouseCanary and against Amrock for an aggregate of $739,600 (consisting of $235,400 in actual damages; $470,800 in punitive damages; $28,900 in prejudgment interest; and $4,500 in attorney fees). On appeal (No. 04-19-00044-CV, Fourth Court of Appeals, San Antonio, Texas), the court of appeals affirmed judgment of no-cause on Amrock’s claim for breach of contract, but reversed judgment on HouseCanary’s misappropriation of trade secrets and fraud claims and remanded the case for a new trial on HouseCanary’s claims. It is possible that one (or both) of the parties could seek additional appellate review of the court of appeals’ decision. The outcome of this matter remains uncertain, and the ultimate resolution of the litigation may be several years in the future. If the case is tried again, Amrock intends to present new evidence, including evidence revealed by whistleblowers who came forward with evidence that undermined HouseCanary’s claims after the conclusion of the original trial, and to vigorously defend against this case and any subsequent actions.
Quicken Loans and Rocket Homes are defending themselves against a tagalong lawsuit filed by HouseCanary that also includes claims for misappropriation of trade secrets. That case is in its early stages and is stayed pending a resolution of Quicken Loans’ and Rocket Homes’ dispositive motion.
In addition to the matters described above, Rocket Companies are subject to other legal proceedings arising from the ordinary course of business. The ultimate outcome of these or other actions or proceedings, including any monetary awards against the companies, is uncertain and there can be no assurance as to the amount of any such potential awards.
There are no recorded reserves related to potential damages in connection with any of the above legal proceedings, as any potential loss is not currently probable and reasonably estimable under U.S. GAAP. The ultimate outcome of these or other actions or proceedings, including any monetary awards against one or more of the Rocket Companies, is uncertain and there can be no assurance as to the amount of any such potential awards. The Rocket Companies will incur defense costs and other expenses in connection with the lawsuits. Plus, if a judgment for money that exceeds specified thresholds is rendered against a Rocket Company or Rocket Companies and it or they fail to timely pay, discharge, bond or obtain a stay of execution of such judgment, it is possible that one or more of the Rocket Companies could be deemed in default of loan funding facilities and other agreements governing indebtedness. If the final resolution of any such litigation is unfavorable in one or more of these actions, it could have a material adverse effect on a Rocket Company’s or the Rocket Companies’ business, liquidity, financial condition, cash flows and results of operations.

11. Minimum Net Worth Requirements
Certain secondary market investors and state regulators require the Company to maintain minimum net worth and capital requirements. To the extent that these requirements are not met, secondary market investors and/or the state regulators may utilize a range of remedies including sanctions, and/or suspension or termination of selling and servicing agreements, which may prohibit the Company from originating, securitizing or servicing these specific types of mortgage loans.
Rocket Mortgage is subject to the following minimum net worth, minimum capital ratio and minimum liquidity requirements established by the Federal Housing Finance Agency (“FHFA”) for Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac Seller/Servicers, and Ginnie Mae for single family issuers. Furthermore, refer to Note 5, Borrowings for additional information regarding compliance with all covenant requirements.
Minimum Net Worth
The minimum net worth requirement for Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac is defined as follows:
• Base of $2,500 plus 25 basis points of outstanding UPB for total loans serviced.
• Adjusted/Tangible Net Worth comprises of total equity less goodwill, intangible assets, affiliate receivables and certain pledged assets.
The minimum net worth requirement for Ginnie Mae is defined as follows:
• Base of $2,500 plus 35 basis points of the issuer’s total single-family effective outstanding obligations.
• Adjusted/Tangible Net Worth is defined as total equity less goodwill, intangible assets, affiliate receivables and certain pledged assets. Effective for fiscal year 2020, under the Ginnie Mae MBS Guide, the issuers will no longer be permitted to include deferred tax assets when computing the minimum net worth requirements.
Minimum Capital Ratio
• For Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac and Ginnie Mae the Company is also required to hold a ratio of Adjusted/Tangible Net Worth to Total Assets greater than 6%.
Minimum Liquidity
The minimum liquidity requirement for Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac is defined as follows:
• 3.5 basis points of total Agency servicing.
• Incremental 200 basis points of total nonperforming Agency, measured as 90+ delinquencies, servicing in excess of 6% of the total Agency servicing UPB.
• Allowable assets for liquidity may include: cash and cash equivalents (unrestricted), available for sale or held for trading investment grade securities (e.g., Agency MBS, Obligations of GSEs, US Treasury Obligations); and unused/available portion of committed servicing advance lines.
The minimum liquidity requirement for Ginnie Mae is defined as follows:
• Maintain liquid assets equal to the greater of $1,000 or 10 basis points of our outstanding single-family MBS.
The most restrictive of the minimum net worth and capital requirements require the Company to maintain a minimum adjusted net worth balance of $1,698,906 and $1,179,928 as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company was in compliance with this requirement.

12. Segments
The Company’s Chief Executive Officer, who has been identified as its Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”), has evaluated how the Company views and measures its performance. ASC 280, Segment Reporting establishes the standards for reporting information about segments in financial statements. In applying the criteria set forth in that guidance, the Company has determined that it has two reportable segments—Direct to Consumer and Partner Network. The key factors used to identify these reportable segments are the organization and alignment of the Company’s internal operations and the nature of its marketing channels which drive client acquisition into the mortgage ecosystem. This determination reflects how its CODM monitors performance, allocates capital and makes strategic and operational decisions. The Company’s segments are described as follows:
Direct to Consumer
        In the Direct to Consumer segment, clients have the ability to interact with the Rocket Mortgage app and/or with the Company’s mortgage bankers. The Company markets to potential clients in this segment through various performance marketing channels. The Direct to Consumer segment derives revenue from originating, closing, selling and servicing predominantly agency-conforming loans, which are pooled and sold to the secondary market. This also includes providing title insurance services, appraisals and settlement services to these clients as part of the Company’s end-to-end mortgage origination experience it provides to its clients. Servicing activities are fully allocated to the Direct to Consumer segment as they are viewed as an extension of the client experience with the primary objective being to establish and maintain positive, regular touchpoints with our clients, which positions the Company to recapture the clients’ next refinance or purchase mortgage transaction. These activities position the Company to be the natural choice for clients’ next refinance or purchase transaction.

Partner Network
The Rocket Pro platform supports the Partner Network segment and enables the ability to offer mortgage solutions with a superior client experience. The Company’s two primary types of partnerships are marketing and influencer. Marketing partnerships consist of well-known, consumer-focused companies that find value in the Company’s award-winning client experience and want to offer their clients mortgage solutions with our trusted, widely recognized brand. Influencer partnerships are typically with companies that employ licensed mortgage professionals who find value in our client experience, technology and efficient mortgage process. In some cases, mortgages are not their primary offering.

Other Information About Our Segments
The Company does not allocate assets to its reportable segments as they are not included in the review performed by the CODM for purposes of assessing segment performance and allocating resources. The balance sheet is managed on a consolidated basis and is not used in the context of segment reporting.
The Company also reports an “all other” category that includes operations from Rocket Homes, Rock Connections, Core Digital Media, Rocket Loans, and includes professional service fee revenues from related parties. These operations are neither significant individually nor in aggregate and therefore do not constitute a reportable segment.

Recent Developments
Business Update in Response to Covid- 19 Impact
As of June 30, 2020, clients that have entered into a forbearance plan related to COVID-19 was 98,000 or 5.1% of the total serviced portfolio. Since the end of the second quarter, we’ve seen positive developments in the number of clients entering into forbearance and as of August 31, 2020, the total number of clients in a forbearance plan related to COVID-19 was 96,000 or 4.7% of the portfolio. For more information about our response to the COVID pandemic, see the “Prospectus Summary—Recent Developments” section of our Prospectus.

Three months ended June 30, 2020 summary
For the three months ended June 30, 2020, we originated $72.3 billion in residential mortgage loans, which was a $40.4 billion, or 126.3%, increase from the three months ended June 30, 2019. Our net income was $3,461.2 million for the
34


three months ended June 30, 2020, compared to a net loss of $54.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019. Results for the three months ended June 30, 2019 include a $391.3 million decrease in fair value of MSRs due to valuation assumptions. We generated $3,836.9 million of Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended June 30, 2020, which was an increase of $3,440.6 million, or 868.2%, compared to $396.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019. For more information on Adjusted EBITDA, please see “—Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below.

The increase in net income and Adjusted EBITDA was primarily driven by an increase of $3,641.1 million, or 327.3% in gain on sale of loans, net which was driven primarily by the increase in origination volume in 2020 noted above. Other income also increased $408.3 million, or 265.3%, due primarily to revenues generated from Amrock's title insurance services, property valuation and settlement services that were also driven by the increase in origination volume noted above and revenues earned at Rocket Loans from processing 7.4 million unique loan recommendations through the economic injury disaster loans program offered by the Small Business Administration in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, which is not expected to continue in future quarters. These increases were partially offset by an increase in collection/realization of cash flows from MSRs of $71.6 million, or 34.6%, which is a reduction in revenue primarily due to an increase in the volume of loans paid in full prior to their scheduled maturity from our servicing book (referred to as ‘prepayment speed’) in 2020 as compared to 2019. In addition, 2020 results include increased expenses associated with higher production levels as compared to 2019 results. The increase in production led to an increase in salaries, commissions and team member benefits of $367.0 million, or 75.4%, primarily due to variable compensation and an increase in team members in production roles to support our continued growth. General and administrative costs also increased by $123.2 million, or 74.5%, in 2020 as compared to 2019 driven primarily by higher loan processing expenses due to increased production as well as expenses associated with supporting the increased revenues from Rocket Loans noted above. Other expenses increased by $119.8 million, or 152.4%, in 2020 as compared to 2019 driven by expenses incurred to support the higher level of title insurance services, property valuation and settlement services due to the increased origination volumes noted above. Other expenses also increased due to an increase in payoff interest expense that resulted from an increase in the volume of loans paid in full prior to their scheduled maturity from our servicing book. When individual loans are paid off, we are required to remit interest for an entire month regardless of the date of payoff; however, clients are only responsible for interest accrued up to the date of payoff. The difference between the interest we are required to remit to investors and the interest we collect from the client as a result of an early payoff is referred to as “payoff interest”.
We retain a majority of the servicing rights associated with our mortgage loan originations. The servicing portfolio is an important asset that helps us build longstanding relationships with our clients and potentially capture future transactions such as their next mortgage origination. We monitor the MSR portfolio on a regular basis seeking to optimize our book by evaluating the risk and return profile of the book. We did not sell any MSR assets during the three-months ended June 30, 2020. As of June 30, 2020, our servicing portfolio, including loans subserviced for others, included approximately $378.2 billion of UPB and 1.9 million client loans. The portfolio primarily consists of high quality performing GSE and government (FHA and VA) loans. As of June 30, 2020, we had approximately 98,000 clients on forbearance plans, which represents approximately 5.1% of our total client serviced loans portfolio. Our delinquent loans (defined as 60-plus days past-due) were 3.71% of our total portfolio. Excluding clients in forbearance plans, our delinquent loans (defined as 60-plus days past-due) were 0.65% as of June 30, 2020.
Six months ended June 30, 2020 summary
For the six months ended June 30, 2020, we originated $124.0 billion in residential mortgage loans, which was a $69.7 billion, or 128.5%, increase from the six months ended June 30, 2019. Our net income was $3,558.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, compared to a net loss of $353.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. Results for the six months ended June 30, 2019 include a $712.3 million decrease in fair value of MSRs due to valuation assumptions, which resulted in a net loss for the period. We generated $4,756.5 million of Adjusted EBITDA for the six months ended June 30, 2020, which was an increase of $4,279.8 million, or 898.0%, compared to $476.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. For more information on Adjusted EBITDA, please see “—Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below.

The increase in net income and Adjusted EBITDA was primarily driven by an increase of $4,736.0 million, or 257.4% in gain on sale of loans, net which was driven primarily by the increase in origination volume in 2020 noted above. Other income also increased $520.4 million, or 181.9%, due primarily to revenues generated from Amrock's title insurance services, property valuation and settlement services that were also driven by the increase in origination volume noted above and revenues earned at Rocket Loans from processing 7.4 million unique loan recommendations through the economic injury disaster loans program offered by the Small Business Administration in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, which is not expected to continue in future quarters. These increases were partially offset by an increase in collection/realization of cash flows from MSRs of $164.8 million, or 45.6%, which is a reduction in revenue primarily due to an increase in the volume of loans paid in full prior to their scheduled maturity from our servicing book (referred to as ‘prepayment speed’) in 2020 as
35


compared to 2019. In addition, 2020 results include increased expenses associated with higher production levels as compared to 2019 results. The increase in production led to an increase in salaries, commissions and team member benefits of $592.7 million, or 62.7%, primarily due to variable compensation and an increase in team members in production roles to support our continued growth. General and administrative costs also increased by $150.9 million, or 45.6%, in 2020 as compared to 2019 driven primarily by higher loan processing expenses due to increased production as well as expenses associated with the increased revenues from Rocket Loans noted above. Other expenses increased by $195.7 million, or 135.8%, in 2020 as compared to 2019 driven by expenses incurred to support the higher level of title insurance services, property valuation and settlement services due to the increased origination volumes noted above. Other expenses also increased due to an increase in payoff interest expense that resulted from an increase in the volume of loans paid in full prior to their scheduled maturity from our servicing book and due to expenses incurred in connection with the sale of MSRs in 2020.

As noted above, we monitor the MSR portfolio on a regular basis seeking to optimize our book by evaluating the risk and return profile of the book. As part of these efforts we sold the servicing on approximately 44,000 loans with $16.3 billion in UPB during the six months ended June 30, 2020. These sales were more than offset by new loans that were added to the MSR portfolio during the period.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To provide investors with information in addition to our results as determined by GAAP, we disclose Adjusted Revenue, Adjusted Net Income, and Adjusted EBITDA as non-GAAP measures which management believes provide useful information to investors. These measures are not financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered as a substitute for revenue, net income, or any other operating performance measure calculated in accordance with GAAP, and may not be comparable to a similarly titled measure reported by other companies.

We define “Adjusted Revenue” as total revenues net of the change in fair value of mortgage servicing rights (“MSRs”) due to valuation assumptions. We define “Adjusted Net Income” as tax-effected earnings before stock--based compensation expense and the change in fair value of MSRs due to valuation assumptions, and the tax effects of those adjustments. We define “Adjusted EBITDA” as earnings before interest and amortization expense on non-funding debt, income tax, and depreciation and amortization, net of the change in fair value of MSRs due to valuation assumptions (net of hedges) and stock-based compensation expense. We exclude from each of these non-GAAP revenues the change in fair value of MSRs due to valuation assumptions (net of hedges) as this represents a non-cash non-realized adjustment to our total revenues, reflecting changes in assumptions including discount rates and prepayment speed assumptions, mostly due to changes in market interest rates, which is not indicative of our performance or results of operation. Adjusted EBITDA includes interest expense on funding facilities, which are recorded as a component of “interest income, net”, as these expenses are a direct cost driven by loan origination volume. By contrast, interest and amortization expense on non-funding debt is a function of our capital structure and is therefore excluded from Adjusted EBITDA.

We believe that the presentation of Adjusted Revenue, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors regarding our results of operations because each measure assists both investors and management in analyzing and benchmarking the performance and value of our business. Adjusted Revenue, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EBITDA provide indicators of performance that are not affected by fluctuations in certain costs or other items. Accordingly, management believes that these measurements are useful for comparing general operating performance from period to period, and management relies on these measures for planning and forecasting of future periods. Additionally, these measures allow management to compare our results with those of other companies that have different financing and capital structures. However, other companies may define Adjusted Revenue, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EBITDA differently, and as a result, our measures of Adjusted Revenue, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EBITDA may not be directly comparable to those of other companies.

Although we use Adjusted Revenue, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EBITDA as financial measures to assess the performance of our business, such use is limited because they do not include certain material costs necessary to operate our business. Additionally, our definitions of each of Adjusted Revenue, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EBITDA allows us to add back certain non-cash charges and deduct certain gains that are included in calculating total revenues, net, net income attributable to Rocket Companies or net income (loss). However, these expenses and gains vary greatly, and are difficult to predict. They can represent the effect of long-term strategies as opposed to short-term results. Adjusted Revenue, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EBITDA should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, total revenues, net income attributable to Rocket Companies and net income (loss) in accordance with U.S. GAAP as measures of performance. Our presentation of Adjusted Revenue, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an indication that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or nonrecurring items.
36



Adjusted Revenue, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EBITDA have limitations as analytical tools, and you should not consider them in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under U.S. GAAP. Some of these limitations are:
(a) they do not reflect every cash expenditure, future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;
(b) Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect the significant interest expense or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payment on our debt;
(c) although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced or require improvements in the future, and Adjusted Revenue, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect any cash requirement for such replacements or improvements; and
(d) they are not adjusted for all non-cash income or expense items that are reflected in our statements of cash flows.
Because of these limitations, Adjusted Revenue, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EBITDA are not intended as alternatives to total revenue, net income attributable to Rocket Companies or net income (loss) as an indicator of our operating performance and should not be considered as measures of discretionary cash available to us to invest in the growth of our business or as measures of cash that will be available to us to meet our obligations. We compensate for these limitations by using Adjusted Revenue, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EBITDA along with other comparative tools, together with U.S. GAAP measurements, to assist in the evaluation of operating performance. See below for reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to their most comparable U.S. GAAP measures. Additionally, our U.S. GAAP-based measures can be found in the combined financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this Form 10-Q.

Key Performance Indicators
We monitor a number of key performance indicators to evaluate the performance of our business operations. Our loan production key performance indicators enable us to monitor our ability to generate gain on sale revenue as well as understand how our performance compares to the total mortgage origination market. Our servicing portfolio key performance indicators enable us to monitor the overall size of our servicing book of business, the related value of our mortgage servicing rights, and the health of the business as measured by the average MSR delinquency rate. Other key performance indicators for other Rocket Companies allow us to monitor both revenues and unit sales generated by these businesses. We also include Rockethomes.com average unique monthly visits, as we believe traffic on the site is an indicator of consumer interest.

_________________________
(1) Rocket Mortgage origination volume, market share, and margins exclude all reverse mortgage activity.
(2) Gain on sale margin is the gain on sale of loans, net divided by net rate lock volume for the period, excluding all reverse mortgage activity. Gain on sale of loans, net includes the net gain on sale of loans, fair value of originated MSRs, and fair value adjustment on loans held for sale, divided by the UPB of loans subject to IRLC’s during the applicable period.
(3) MSR fair market value multiple is a metric used to determine the relative value of the MSR asset in relation to the annualized retained servicing fee, which is the cash that the holder of the MSR asset would receive from the portfolio as of such date. It is calculated as the quotient of (a) the MSR fair market value as of a specified date divided by (b) the weighted average annualized retained servicing fee for our MSR portfolio as of such date. The weighted average annualized retained servicing fee for our MSR portfolio was 0.310% and 0.303% for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The vast majority of our portfolio consists of originated MSRs and consequently, the impact of purchased MSRs does not have a material impact on our weighted average service fee.

39


(4) Rockethomes.com average unique monthly visits is calculated by a third party service that monitors website activity. This metric does not have a direct correlation to revenues and is used primarily to monitor consumer interest in the Rockethomes.com site.
(5) In addition to the closed loans Rocket Loans disclosed here, as noted above, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, we also processed more than 7.4 million unique loan recommendations through the economic injury disaster loans program offered by the Small Business Administration.

(6) Net revenue presented above is calculated as gross revenues less intercompany revenue eliminations. A significant portion of the other Rocket Companies revenues is generated through intercompany transactions. These intercompany transactions take place with entities that are part of our ecosystem. Consequently, we view gross revenue of individual other Rocket Companies as a key performance indicator, and we consider net revenue of other Rocket Companies on a combined basis.
Description of Certain Components of Financial Data
Components of revenue
Our sources of revenue include gain on sale of loans, loan servicing income, interest income, and other income.
Gain on sale of loans, net
Gain on sale of loans, net includes all components related to the origination and sale of mortgage loans, including (1) net gain on sale of loans, which represents the premium we receive in excess of the loan principal amount and certain fees charged by investors upon sale of loans into the secondary market, (2) loan origination fees, credits, points and certain costs, (3) provision for or benefit from investor reserves, (4) the change in fair value of interest rate locks (“IRLCs” or “rate lock”) and loans held for sale, (5) the gain or loss on forward commitments hedging loans held for sale and IRLCs, and (6) the fair value of originated MSRs.
An estimate of the gain on sale of loans, net is recognized at the time an IRLC is issued, net of an estimated pull-through factor. The pull-through factor is a key assumption and estimates the loan funding probability, as not all loans that reach IRLC status will result in a closed loan. Subsequent changes in the fair value of IRLCs and mortgage loans held for sale are recognized in current period earnings. When the mortgage loan is sold into the secondary market (i.e., funded), any difference between the proceeds received and the current fair value of the loan is recognized in current period earnings in gain on sale of loans.
Loan origination fees generally include underwriting and processing fees. Loan origination costs include lender paid mortgage insurance, recording taxes, investor fees and other related expenses. Net loan origination fees and costs related to the origination of mortgage loans are recognized as a component of the fair value of IRLCs.
We establish reserves for our estimated liabilities associated with the potential repurchase or indemnity of purchasers of loans previously sold due to representation and warranty claims by investors. Additionally, the reserves are established for the estimated liabilities from the need to repay, where applicable, a portion of the premium received from investors on the sale of certain loans if such loans are repaid in their entirety within a specified time period after the sale of the loans. The provision for or benefit from investor reserves is recognized in current period earnings in gain on sale of loans.
We enter into derivative transactions to protect against the risk of adverse interest rate movements that could impact the fair value of certain assets, including IRLCs and loans held for sale. We primarily use forward loan sales commitments to hedge our interest rate risk exposure. Changes in the value of these derivatives, or hedging gains and losses, are included in gain on sale of loans.
Included in gain on sale of loans, net is also the fair value of originated MSRs, which represents the estimated fair value of MSRs related to loans which we have sold and retained the right to service.
40


Loan servicing (loss) income, net
The value of newly originated MSRs is recognized as a component of the gain on sale of loans, net when loans are sold and the associated servicing rights are retained. Loan servicing fee income consists of the contractual fees earned for servicing the loans and includes ancillary revenue such as late fees and modification incentives. Loan servicing fee income is recorded to income as earned, which is upon collection of payments from borrowers. We have elected to subsequently measure the MSRs at fair value on a recurring basis. Changes in fair value of MSRs, net primarily due to the realization of expected cash flows and/or changes in valuation inputs and estimates, are recognized in current period earnings. Furthermore, we also include in loan servicing (loss) income, net the gains and losses related to MSRs collateral financing liability and MSRs financing liability.

We regularly perform a comprehensive analysis of the MSR portfolio in order to identify and sell certain MSRs that do not align with our strategy for retaining MSRs. To hedge against interest rate exposure on these assets, we enter into forward loan purchase commitments. Changes in the value of derivatives designed to protect against MSR value fluctuations, or MSR hedging gains and losses, are included as a component of servicing fee loss, net.

Interest income, net

Interest income, net is interest earned on mortgage loans held for sale net of the interest expense paid on our loan funding facilities.
Other income
Other income includes revenues generated from Amrock (title insurance services, property valuation, and settlement services), Rocket Homes (real estate network referral fees), Rocket Auto (auto sales business revenues), Core Digital Media (third party lead generation revenues), Rock Connections (third party sales and support revenues), and professional service fees. The professional service fees represent amounts paid for services provided by Rocket Mortgage to affiliated companies. For additional information on such fees, see “Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions—Transactions with RHI and other Related Parties” and Note 6, Transactions with Related Parties in the notes to the annual combined financial statements included elsewhere in this prospectus for additional detail. Services are provided primarily in connection with technology, facilities, human resources, accounting, training, and security functions. Other income also includes revenues from investment interest income.
Components of operating expenses
Our operating expenses as presented in the condensed statement of operations data include salaries, commissions and team member benefits, general and administrative expenses, marketing and advertising expenses, and other expenses.
Salaries, commissions and team member benefits
Salaries, commissions and team member benefits include all payroll, benefits, and stock compensation expenses for our team members.
General and administrative expenses
General and administrative expenses primarily include occupancy costs, professional services, loan processing expenses on loans that do not close or that are not charged to clients on closed loans, commitment fees, fees on loan funding facilities, license fees, office expenses and other operating expenses.
Marketing and advertising expenses
Marketing and advertising expenses are primarily related to performance and brand marketing.
41


Other expenses
Other expenses primarily consist of depreciation and amortization on property and equipment, mortgage servicing related expenses, and state and local income taxes.
Income taxes
Our Combined Businesses include C corporations that have elected to be treated as Subchapter S subsidiary corporations or single member limited liability companies, both of which are disregarded for federal income tax purposes. The RHI shareholders are responsible for the federal income tax liabilities of RHI and the Combined Businesses. Therefore, no provision for federal income taxes is reflected in the historical financial statements.

Provision for income taxes in the combined financial statements are computed using the liability method. Under this method, deferred income taxes are provided for differences between the financial accounting and income tax basis of assets and liabilities. In assessing the need for a valuation allowance, both positive and negative evidence related to the likelihood of realization of the deferred tax assets is considered. If, based on the weight of the available evidence, it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will not be realized, a valuation allowance is recorded. Refer to Note 8, Income Taxes of the notes to the interim condensed combined financial statements of this Form 10-Q for further information.

In connection with the completion of this offering and as a result of the reorganization transactions as described in Note 1, Business, Basis of Presentation, and Accounting Policies of the notes to the interim condensed combined financial statements of this Form 10-Q, we will become subject to U.S. federal and certain state taxes applicable to entities treated as corporations for U.S. federal income tax purposes on taxable income attributable to the Company’s interest in Holdings.

Stock-based compensation
Stock-based compensation is comprised of both equity and liability awards and is measured and expensed accordingly under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 718 Compensation—Stock Compensation. As indicated above, stock-based compensation expense is included as part of salaries, benefits and team member benefits.

Non-Controlling Interest
Our historical financial statements include a non-controlling interest reported since 2018 related to a minority interest in one of our subsidiaries.
In connection with the reorganization transactions, we will be appointed as the sole managing member of Holdings pursuant to Holdings’ limited liability company agreement. Because we will manage and operate the business and control the strategic decisions and day-to-day operations of Holdings and will also have a substantial financial interest in Holdings, we will consolidate the financial results of Holdings, and a portion of our net income (loss) will be allocated to the non-controlling interest to reflect the entitlement of RHI and Dan Gilbert to Holdings’ net income (loss). We will hold approximately 5% of the outstanding Holdings Units (or approximately 6% of the outstanding Holdings Units if the underwriters exercise their option to purchase additional shares in full), and the remaining Holdings Units will be held by RHI and Dan Gilbert.

(1) Net rate lock volume includes the UPB of loans subject to IRLCs, net of the pull-through factor as described in the “—Description of Certain Components of Financial Data” section above.
(2) Gain on sale margin is a ratio of gain on sale of loans, net to the net rate lock volume for the period as described above. Gain on sale of loans, net includes the net gain on sale of loans, fair value of originated MSRs, fair value adjustment gain on loans held for sale and IRLC’s, and revaluation loss from forward commitments economically hedging loans held for sale and IRLCs. This metric is a measure of profitability for our on-going mortgage business and therefore excludes revenues from other Rocket Companies and reverse mortgage activity. See the table above for each of the components of gain on sale of loans, net.
Gain on sale of loans, net was $4,753.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020, an increase of $3,641.1 million, or 327.3%, as compared with $1,112.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019. The increase in gain on sale of loans, net was primarily driven by an increase in mortgage loan origination volume of $40.4 billion, or 126.3%. The increase also reflects an increase in gain on sale margin from 3.23% to 5.19%, reflecting strong consumer demand for mortgages.
Gain on sale of loans, net was $6,575.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, an increase of $4,736.0 million, or 257.4%, as compared with $1,839.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The increase in gain on sale of loans, net was primarily driven by increases in mortgage loan origination volume of $69.7 billion, or 128.5%. The increase also reflects an increase in gain on sale margin from 2.97% to 4.45%, reflecting strong consumer demand for mortgages.

Net gain on sales of loans increased $2,413.1 million, or 358.1%, to $3,087.0 million in the three months ended June 30, 2020 compared to $673.9 million in the three months ended June 30, 2019. This was driven by increased mortgage loan origination volume and increase in gain on sale margin noted above.

Net gain on sales of loans increased $3,354.4 million, or 293.0%, to $4,499.1 million in the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to $1,144.7 million in the six months ended June 30, 2019. This was driven by increased mortgage loan origination volume and increase in gain on sale margin noted above.

The fair value of MSRs originated was $669.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020, an increase of $224.2 million, or 50.3%, as compared with $445.7 million during the three months ended June 30, 2019.

June 30, 2019 to $70.3 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2020. The increase in funded loan volume was partially offset as we retained a lower amount of excess servicing on new MSRs during the second quarter of 2020 as compared to the second quarter of 2019.

The fair value of MSRs originated was $1,205.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, an increase of $463.0 million, or 62.4%, as compared with $742.3 million during the six months ended June 30, 2019. The increase was primarily due to an increase funded loan volume of $70.9 billion, or 140.8%, from $50.4 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2019 to $121.3 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The increase in funded loan volume was partially offset as we retained a lower amount of excess servicing on new MSRs during the six months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2019.

Gain on sale of loans, net also includes unrealized gains and losses from the fair value changes in mortgage loans held for sale and IRLCs as well as realized and unrealized gains and losses from forward commitments used to hedge the loans held for sale and IRLCs. The net gain from these fair value changes was $1,004.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020, compared to a net loss of $8.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019 driven by changes in interest rates and loan volume. The net gain from these fair value changes was $880.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, compared to a net loss of $48.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 driven by changes in interest rates and loan volume.

Loan servicing loss, net was $303.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020, which compares to loan servicing loss, net of $358.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019. The reduced loss was driven primarily by a lower reduction in fair market value of MSRs of $552.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to a reduction in the fair market value of MSRs of $598.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019. See discussion below on change in MSR fair value for additional discussion. We originate the vast majority of our MSR portfolio and did not purchase any MSRs during 2020 and 2019. Both purchased MSRs and subservicing revenues are not material sources of servicing fee income.

Loan servicing loss, net was $1,037.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, which compares to loan servicing loss, net of $609.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The increased loss was driven primarily by a reduction in fair market value of MSRs of $1,544.1 million in 2020 as compared to a reduction in fair market value of MSRs of $1,074.0 million in 2019. See discussion below on change in MSR fair value for additional discussion.

The change in MSR fair value was a net loss of $552.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020, as compared with a net loss of $598.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019. The change in fair value during the second quarter of 2020 included $278.5 million of loss due to collection/realization of cash flows and a decrease in fair value due to change in valuation assumptions (net of hedges) of $274.4 million primarily. The overall prepayment assumptions decreased from 19.7% at March 31, 2020 to 19.2% at June 30, 2020, driven primarily by MSR new adds during the quarter. Excluding the MSR new adds, the prepayment speeds increased at June 30, 2020 relative to March 31, 2020 resulting in the decrease in fair value due to changes in valuation assumptions noted above. The prepayment speed valuation assumption represents the annual rate at which serviced clients are estimated to repay their UPB. The decrease in fair value during the second quarter of 2019 included $206.9 million of due to collection/realization of cash flows and a decrease in fair value due to changes in valuation model inputs or assumptions of $391.3 million primarily driven by an increase in prepayment speeds from 13.2% at March 31, 2019 to 16.5% at June 30, 2019.

The change in MSR fair value was a net loss of $1,544.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, as compared with a net loss of $1,074.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The change in fair value during the first half of 2020 included $526.4 million of loss due to collection/realization of cash flows and a decrease in fair value due to change in valuation assumptions (net of hedges) of $1,017.7 million primarily driven by an increase in prepayment speeds from 14.5% at December 31, 2019 to 19.2% at June 30, 2020.

Summary results by segment for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019
Our operations are organized by distinct marketing channels which promote client acquisition into our ecosystem and include two reportable segments: Direct to Consumer and Partner Network. In the Direct to Consumer segment, clients have the ability to interact with the Rocket Mortgage app and/or with our mortgage bankers. We market to potential clients in this segment through various performance marketing channels. The Direct to Consumer segment derives revenue from originating, closing, selling and servicing predominantly agency-conforming loans, which are pooled and sold to the secondary market. This also includes providing title insurance services, appraisals and settlement services to these clients as part of our end-to-end mortgage origination experience. Servicing activities are fully allocated to the Direct to Consumer segment as they are viewed as an extension of the client experience with the primary objective to establish and maintain positive, regular touchpoints with our clients, which positions us to recapture the clients’ next refinance or purchase mortgage transaction. These activities position us to be the natural choice for clients’ next refinance or purchase transaction.

The Rocket Pro platform supports the Partner Network segment and enables the ability to offer mortgage solutions with a superior client experience. Our two primary types of partnerships are marketing and influencer. Marketing partnerships consist of well-known, consumer-focused companies that find value in our award-winning client experience and want to offer their clients mortgage solutions with our trusted, widely recognized brand. Influencer partnerships are typically with companies that employ licensed mortgage professionals who find value in our client experience, technology and efficient mortgage process. In some cases, mortgages are not their primary offering.

We measure the performance of the segments primarily on a contribution margin basis. Contribution margin is intended to measure the direct profitability of each segment and is calculated as Adjusted Revenue less directly attributable expenses. Adjusted Revenue is a non-GAAP financial measure described above. Directly attributable expenses include salaries, commissions and team member benefits, general and administrative expenses and other expenses, such as direct servicing costs and origination costs. For segments, we measure gain on sale margin of funded loans and refer to this metric as ‘funded loan gain on sale margin.’ A loan is considered funded, when it is sold to investors on the secondary market. Funded loan gain on sale margin represents revenues on loans that have been funded divided by the funded UPB amount. Funded loan gain on sale margin is used specifically in the context of measuring the gain on sale margins of our Direct to Consumer and Partner Network segments. Funded loan gain on sale margin is an important metric in evaluating the revenue generating performance of our segments as it allows us to measure this metric at a segment level with a high degree of precision. By contrast, ‘gain on sale margin’, which we use outside of the segment discussion, measures the gain on sale revenue generation of our combined mortgage business. See below for overview and discussion of segment results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019. For additional discussion, see Note 12, Segments of the interim condensed combined financial statements of this Form 10-Q.

For the three months ended June 30, 2020, Direct to Consumer Adjusted Revenue increased $3,065.2 million, or 267.0% to $4,213.1 million from $1,147.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019. The increase was driven by growth in Direct to Consumer mortgage originations resulting in an increase in gain on sale revenue of $3,022.8 million, or 303.0%, in 2020. On a funded loan basis, the Direct to Consumer segment generated $46.8 billion in the three months ended June, 30, 2020, an increase of $27.6 billion, or 143.8% as compared to 2019. In addition, funded loan gain on sale margin was 5.09% in 2020 as compared to 4.25% in 2019, driven primarily by strong consumer demand for mortgages which led to margin expansion during 2020 as compared to 2019. The increase in adjusted revenue also reflects an increase in other income of $107.8 million, or 109.2%, related primarily to revenues generated from title insurance services, property valuation and settlement services from increased origination levels. Revenues from title insurance services, property valuation and settlement services are generated by Amrock. In addition, 2020 results include a decrease in collection/realization of servicing cash flows of $45.4 million as compared to 2019. Collection/realization of servicing cash flows is reflected in the changes in fair value of MSRs line item in the table above.

For the three months ended June 30, 2020, Direct to Consumer Attributable Expenses increased $342.7 million, or 56.5%, to $948.9 million in 2020 compared to $606.2 million in 2019. The increase was primarily due to an increase in variable compensation and an increase in team members in production roles needed to support growth. The increase in also reflects greater loan processing costs due to higher origination volumes and an increase in expenses incurred to support the
49


higher level of title insurance services, valuation and settlement services due to the increased origination volumes noted above, as well as an increase payoff interest expense.

For the three months ended June 30, 2020, Direct to Consumer Contribution Margin increased $2,772.5 million, or 502.6%, to $3,264.2 million compared to $541.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019. The increase in Contribution Margin was driven primarily by the increase in Direct to Consumer originations and higher funded loan gain on sale margin noted above.

For the six months ended June 30, 2020, Direct to Consumer Adjusted Revenue increased $4,022.7 million, or 203.6% to $5,998.9 million from $1,976.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The increase was driven by growth in Direct to Consumer mortgage originations resulting in an increase in gain on sale revenue of $3,967.8 million, or 238.5%, in 2020. On a funded loan basis, the Direct to Consumer segment generated $78.5 billion in 2020, an increase of $44.8 billion, or 132.9% as compared to 2019. In addition, funded loan gain on sale margin was 4.93% in 2020 as compared to 4.11% in 2019, driven primarily by capacity constraints in the industry which led to margin expansion during 2020 as compared to 2019. The increase in adjusted revenue also reflects an increase in other income of $176.1 million, or 100.4%, related primarily to revenues generated from title insurance services, property valuation and settlement services from increased origination levels. Revenues from title insurance services, property valuation and settlement services are generated by Amrock. In addition, service fee income increased $41.5 million, or 9.0%, due to an increase in the servicing portfolio during 2019. These increases were partially offset by an increase in collection/realization of servicing cash flows in 2020 as compared to 2019. Collection/realization of servicing cash flows is reflected in the changes in fair value of MSRs line item in the table above.

For the six months ended June 30, 2020, Direct to Consumer Attributable Expenses increased $579.0 million, or 50.3%, to $1,729.5 million in 2020 compared to $1,150.5 million in 2019. The increase was primarily due to an increase in variable compensation and an increase in team members in production roles needed to support growth. The increase in also reflects greater loan processing costs due to higher origination volumes and an increase in expenses incurred to support the higher level of title insurance services, valuation and settlement services due to the increased origination volumes noted above, as well as an increase payoff interest expense, and costs incurred during in connection with the MSR sales.

For the six months ended June 30, 2020, Direct to Consumer Contribution Margin increased $3,443.7 million, or 417.1%, to $4,269.4 million compared to $825.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The increase in Contribution Margin was driven primarily by the increase in Direct to Consumer originations and higher funded loan gain on sale margin noted above.

For the six months ended June 30, 2020, Partner Network Attributable Expenses increased $129.0 million, or 126.3%, to $231.1 million in 2020 compared to $102.1 million in 2019. The increase was primarily due to an increase in variable compensation and an increase in team members in production roles needed to support growth.

For the six months ended June 30, 2020, Partner Network Contribution Margin increased $710.2 million, or 931.5%, to $786.4 million, compared to $76.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The increase in Contribution Margin was driven primarily by the increase in Partner Network originations and higher funded loan gain on sale margin noted above.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Historically, our primary sources of liquidity have included:
• borrowings, including under our loan funding facilities and other secured and unsecured financing facilities;
• cash flow from our operations, including:
• sale of whole loans into the secondary market;
• sale of mortgage servicing rights into the secondary market;

• loan origination fees;
• servicing fee income; and
• interest income on loans held for sale; and
• cash and marketable securities on hand.
Historically, our primary uses of funds have included:
• origination of loans;
• payment of interest expense;
• prepayment of debt;
• payment of operating expenses; and
51


• distributions to RHI, including those to fund distributions for payment of taxes by its ultimate shareholders.
We are also subject to contingencies which may have a significant impact on the use of our cash.
In order to originate and aggregate loans for sale into the secondary market, we use our own working capital and borrow or obtain money on a short-term basis primarily through committed and uncommitted loan funding facilities that it has established with large global banks.
Our loan funding facilities are primarily in the form of master repurchase agreements. We also have loan funding facilities directly with the GSEs. Loans financed under these facilities are generally financed at approximately 97% to 98% of the principal balance of the loan (although certain types of loans are financed at lower percentages of the principal balance of the loan), which requires us to fund the balance from cash generated from its operations. Once closed, the underlying residential mortgage loan that is held for sale is pledged as collateral for the borrowing or advance that was made under these loan funding facilities. In most cases, the loans will remain in one of the loan funding facilities for only a short time, generally less than one month, until the loans are pooled and sold. During the time the loans are held for sale, we earn interest income from the borrower on the underlying mortgage loan. This income is partially offset by the interest and fees we have to pay under the loan funding facilities.
When we sell a pool of loans in the secondary market, the proceeds received from the sale of the loans are used to pay back the amounts we owe on the loan funding facilities. We rely on the cash generated from the sale of loans to fund future loans and repay borrowings under our loan funding facilities. Delays or failures to sell loans in the secondary market could have an adverse effect on our liquidity position.
As discussed in Note 5, Borrowings, of the interim condensed combined financial statements included elsewhere in this Form 10-Q, as of June 30, 2020, we had 16 different funding facilities in different amounts and with various maturities together with the 5.250% Senior Notes due 2028 and the 5.750% Senior Notes due 2025. At June 30, 2020, the aggregate available amount under our facilities was $22.3 billion, with combined outstanding balances of $16.1 billion and unutilized capacity of $6.2 billion.

The amount of financing actually advanced on each individual loan under our loan funding facilities, as determined by agreed upon advance rates, may be less than the stated advance rate depending, in part, on the market value of the mortgage loans securing the financings. Each of our loan funding facilities allows the bank providing the funds to evaluate the market value of the loans that are serving as collateral for the borrowings or advances being made. If the bank determines that the value of the collateral has decreased, the bank can require us to provide additional collateral or reduce the amount outstanding with respect to those loans (e.g., initiate a margin call). Our inability or unwillingness to satisfy the request could result in the termination of the facilities and possible default under our other loan funding facilities. In addition, a large unanticipated margin call could have a material adverse effect on our liquidity.

The amount owed and outstanding on our loan funding facilities fluctuates significantly based on our origination volume, the amount of time it takes us to sell the loans it originates, and the amount of loans being self-funded with cash. We may from time to time use surplus cash to “buy-down” the effective interest rate of certain loan funding facilities or to self-fund a portion of our loan originations. As of June 30, 2020, $429.9 million of our cash was used to buy-down our funding facilities and self-fund, $265.0 million of which are buy-down funds that are included in cash on the balance sheet and $164.9 million of which is self-funding that reduces cash on the balance sheet. We have the ability to withdraw the $265.0 million at any time, unless a margin call has been made or a default has occurred under the relevant facilities. We have the right to transfer $164.9 million of self-funded loans on to a warehouse line or early buy out line with a government agency, provided that such loans meet the eligibility criteria to be placed on such warehouse line or early buy out line and no default or margin call has been made on such line, the loans are further subject to any required haircuts, and are subject to its ability to borrow additional funds under the facility.

Our loan funding facilities, early buy out facilities, MSR facility and unsecured lines of credit also generally require us to comply with certain operating and financial covenants and the availability of funds under these facilities is subject to, among other conditions, our continued compliance with these covenants. These financial covenants include, but are not limited to, maintaining (1) a certain minimum tangible net worth, (2) minimum liquidity, (3) a maximum ratio of total liabilities or total debt to tangible net worth and (4) pre-tax net income requirements. A breach of these covenants can result in an event of default under these facilities and as such allows the lenders to pursue certain remedies. In addition, each of these facilities, as well as our unsecured lines of credit, includes cross default or cross acceleration provisions that could
52


result in all facilities terminating if an event of default or acceleration of maturity occurs under any facility. We were in compliance with all covenants as of June 30, 2020 and 2019.

Our $175.0 million unsecured line of credit also requires us to maintain minimum unencumbered and unrestricted cash and marketable securities. We were in compliance with this covenant as of June 30, 2020 and 2019.

June 30, 2020 compared to June 30, 2019
Cash and cash equivalents
Our cash and cash equivalents were $1,724.0 million at June 30, 2020, an increase of $1,115.4 million, or 183.3%, compared to $608.6 million at June 30, 2019. The increase in the cash and cash equivalents balance was impacted by earnings for the period adjusted for non-cash items, the increase in net borrowings on funding facilities to fund the increase in mortgage loans held for sale, and proceeds from MSR sales.These increases were partially offset by distributions made to the parent company.

Shareholder’s equity
Shareholder’s equity was $5,536.2 million as of June 30, 2020, an increase of $3,303.7 million, or 148.0%, as compared to $2,232.5 million as of June 30, 2019. The change was primarily the result of net income of $4,706.7 million and stock-based compensation of $83.1 million. These increases were partially offset by distributions made to the parent company.

Cash and cash equivalents
Our cash and cash equivalents were $1,724.0 million at June 30, 2020, an increase of $373.0 million, or 27.6%, compared to $1,351.0 million at December 31, 2019. The increase in the cash and cash equivalents balance was impacted by earnings for the period and proceeds from MSR sales. These increases were partially offset by distributions made to the parent company.

Shareholder’s equity
Shareholder’s equity was $5,536.2 million as of June 30, 2020, an increase of $2,033.3 million, or 58.0%, as compared to $3,502.9 million as of December 31, 2019. The change was primarily the result of net income of $3,558.5 million and stock-based compensation of $60.3 million. These increases were partially offset by distributions made to the parent company.
Contractual Obligations, Commercial Commitments, and Other Contingencies
The following table sets forth certain of our contractual obligations as of December 31, 2019. See Note 5, Borrowings, and 10, Commitments, Contingencies, and Guarantees, of the notes to the interim condensed combined financial statements included elsewhere in this Form 10-Q for further discussion of contractual obligations, commercial commitments, and other contingencies, including legal contingencies. There were no material changes outside the ordinary course of business to our outstanding contractual obligations as of June 30, 2020 from amounts previously disclosed as of December 31, 2019.

(1) We expect to pay Intuit the maximum annual amount of $7.5 million each year under this agreement. We have entered into an agreement with Intuit that, among other things, gives Quicken Loans full ownership of the “Quicken Loans” brand in 2022 in exchange for certain agreements, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions.
Repurchase and indemnification obligations
In the ordinary course of business, we are exposed to liability under representations and warranties made to purchasers of mortgage loans. Under certain circumstances, we may be required to repurchase mortgage loans, or indemnify the purchaser of such loans for losses incurred, if there has been a breach of representations or warranties, or if the borrower defaults on the loan payments within a contractually defined period (early payment default). Additionally, in certain instances we are contractually obligated to refund to the purchaser certain premiums paid to us on the sale if the mortgagor prepays the loan within a specified period of time, specified in our loan sale agreements. See Note 10, Commitments, Contingencies, and Guarantees of the notes to the interim condensed combined financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Interest rate lock commitments, loan sale and forward commitments
In the normal course of business we are party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit to borrowers at either fixed or floating interest rates. IRLCs are binding agreements to lend to a client at a specified interest rate within a specified period of time as long as there is no violation of conditions established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses which may require payment of a fee. As many of the commitments expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. In addition, we have contracts to sell mortgage loans into the secondary market at specified future dates (commitments to sell loans), and forward commitments to sell MBS at specified future dates and interest rates.

Following is a summary of the notional amounts of commitments:

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of June 30, 2020, we guaranteed the debt of another related party totaling $15 million, consisting of three separate guarantees of $5 million each. As of June 30, 2019, we did not record a liability on the interim condensed combined balance sheets for these guarantees because it was not probable that we would be required to make payments under these guarantees. See “Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions—Transactions with RHI and other Affiliates—Guarantees” in our Prospectus.

Distributions
Subsequent to June 30, 2020 and as part of the reorganization transaction, the Company made a cash distribution to RHI in an aggregate amount of $2,260 million. See Note 1, Business, Basis of Presentation, and Accounting Policies of the notes to the condensed combined financial statements for additional details.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
In the normal course of business, we are subject to a variety of risks which can affect our operations and profitability. We broadly define these areas of risk as interest rate, credit risk, counterparty risk, and risk related to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Interest rate risk
We are subject to interest rate risk which may impact our origination volume and associated revenue, MSR valuations, IRLCs and mortgage loans held for sale valuations, and the net interest margin derived from our funding facilities. The fair value of MSRs are driven primarily by interest rates, which impact the likelihood of loan prepayments and refinancing. In periods of rising interest rates, the fair value of the MSRs generally increases as prepayments decrease, and therefore the estimated life of the MSRs and related expected cash flows increase. In a declining interest rate environment, the fair value of MSRs generally decreases as prepayments increase and therefore the estimated life of the MSRs and related cash flows decrease. Because origination volumes tend to increase in declining interest rate environments and decrease in increasing rate environments, we believe that servicing provides a natural hedge to our origination business through the natural counter-cyclicality of servicing and mortgaging originations. We actively manage our MSR portfolio and from time to time identify assets for sale that do not meet our MSR strategy. We use forward loan purchase commitments to economically hedge the risk of potential changes in the value of MSR assets that have been identified for sale and mitigate interest rate risk for this portion of the MSR portfolio.

Our IRLCs and mortgage loans held for sale are exposed to interest rate volatility. During the origination, pooling, and delivery process, this pipeline value rises and falls with changes in interest rates. To mitigate this exposure, we employ a hedge strategy designed to minimize basis risk and maximize effectiveness. Basis risk in this case is the risk that the hedged instrument’s price does not move in parallel with the increase or decrease in the market price of the hedged financial instrument. Because substantially all of its production is deliverable to Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, and Ginnie Mae, we utilize forward agency or Ginnie Mae To Be Announced (“TBA”) securities as its primary hedge instrument to mitigate the basis risk associated with U.S. Treasury futures, Eurodollar futures or other non-mortgage instruments. By fixing the future sale price, we reduce our exposure to changes in mortgage values between interest rate lock and sale. Our non-agency, non-Ginnie Mae production is hedged with a combination of TBAs and whole loan forward commitments. To mitigate the TBA basis risk, we look to sell most of its non-agency, non-Ginnie Mae production forward to its various buyers.

Interest rate risk also occurs in periods where changes in short-term interest rates result in mortgage loans being originated with terms that provide a smaller interest rate spread above the financing terms of our loan funding facilities, which can negatively impact its net interest income.

55


Credit risk
We are subject to credit risk, which is the risk of default that results from a borrower’s inability or unwillingness to make contractually required mortgage payments. Generally, all loans sold into the secondary market are sold without recourse. For such loans, our credit risk is limited to repurchase obligations due to fraud or origination defects. For loans that were repurchased or not sold in the secondary market, we are subject to credit risk to the extent a borrower defaults and the proceeds upon ultimate foreclosure and liquidation of the property are insufficient to cover the amount of the mortgage plus expenses incurred. We believe that this risk is mitigated through the implementation of stringent underwriting standards, strong fraud detection tools, and technology designed to comply with applicable laws and our standards. In addition, we believe that this risk is mitigated through the quality of our loan portfolio. For the six months ended June 30, 2020, our clients’ weighted average credit score was 751 and its approximate average loan size was $275 with a weighted average loan-to-value ratio of approximately 71.6%.

Counterparty risk
We are subject to risk that arises from its financing facilities and interest rate risk hedging activities. These activities generally involve an exchange of obligations with unaffiliated banks or companies, referred to in such transactions as “counterparties.” If a counterparty were to default, we could potentially be exposed to financial loss if such counterparty were unable to meet its obligations to us. We manage this risk by selecting only counterparties that we believe to be financially strong, spreading the risk among many such counterparties, placing contractual limits on the amount of unsecured credit extended to any single counterparty, and entering into netting agreements with the counterparties as appropriate.

In accordance with Treasury Market Practices Group’s recommendation, we execute Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association trading agreements with all material trading partners. Each such agreement provides for an exchange of margin money should either party’s exposure exceed a predetermined contractual limit. Such margin requirements limit our overall counterparty exposure. The master netting agreements contain a legal right to offset amounts due to and from the same counterparty. Derivative assets in the combined balance sheets represent derivative contracts in a gain position net of loss positions with the same counterparty and, therefore, also represent our maximum counterparty credit risk. We incurred no losses due to nonperformance by any of its counterparties during the second quarter of 2020 and 2019.

Also, in the case of our financing facilities, we are subject to risk if the counterparty chooses not to renew a borrowing agreement and we are unable to obtain financing to originate mortgage loans. With our financing facilities, we seek to mitigate this risk by ensuring that it has sufficient borrowing capacity with a variety of well-established counterparties to meet its funding needs.

Risk related to the COVID-19 pandemic
The COVID‑19 pandemic has had, and continues to have, a significant impact on the national economy and the communities in which we operate. While the pandemic’s effect on the macroeconomic environment operate has yet to be fully determined and could continue for months or years, we expect that the pandemic and governmental programs created as a response to the pandemic, will affect the core aspects of our business, including the origination of mortgages, our servicing operations, our liquidity and our employees. Such effects, if they continue for a prolonged period, may have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operation. For additional discussion on these risks please refer to “Risk Factors—Risks Related to Our Business—The COVID-19 pandemic poses unique challenges to our business and the effects of the pandemic could adversely impact our ability to originate mortgages, our servicing operations, our liquidity and our employees” included in our Prospectus.

Critical Accounting Policies
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. We have identified certain accounting policies as being critical because they require us to make difficult, subjective or complex judgments about matters that are uncertain. We believe that the judgment, estimates and assumptions used in the preparation of our combined financial statements are appropriate given the factual circumstances at the time. However, actual results could differ and the use of other assumptions or estimates could result in material differences in our results of operations or financial condition. Our critical accounting policies and estimates are discussed below and relate to fair value measurements, particularly those determined to be Level 2 and Level 3 as discussed in Note 2, Fair Value Measurements, of the interim condensed combined financial statements included elsewhere in this Form 10-Q.

56


Mortgage loans held for sale

We have elected to record mortgage loans held for sale at fair value. Included in mortgage loans held for sale are loans originated as held for sale that are expected to be sold into the secondary market and loans that have been previously sold and repurchased from investors that management intends to resell into the secondary market, which are all recorded at fair value.

The fair value of loans held for sale that trade in active secondary markets is estimated using Level 2 measurements derived from observable market data, including market prices of securities backed by similar mortgage loans adjusted for certain factors to approximate the fair value of a whole mortgage loan, including the value attributable to mortgage servicing and credit risk. Loans held for sale for which there is little to no observable trading activity of similar instruments are valued using Level 3 measurements based upon dealer price quotations which typically results in credit spreads (i.e., purchase price discounts). Changes in fair value of mortgage loans held for sale are included in gain on sale of loans in the annual combined statements of income.

Changes in economic or other relevant conditions could cause our assumptions with respect to market prices of securities backed by similar mortgage loans to be different than our estimates. Increases in the market yields of similar mortgage loans result in a lower mortgage loans held for sale fair value.

Mortgage servicing rights

We have elected to record MSRs at fair value. MSRs are recognized as a component of the gain on sale of loans when loans are sold and the associated servicing rights are retained.

Subsequent changes in fair value of MSRs due to the collection and realization of cash flows and changes in model inputs and assumptions are recognized in current period earnings and included as a separate line item in the combined statements of income. Fair value is determined on a monthly basis using a valuation model that calculates the present value of estimated future net servicing fee income. The model uses estimates of prepayment speeds, discount rate, cost to service, escrow account earnings, contractual servicing fee income, and ancillary income and late fees, among others. These estimates are supported by market and economic data collected from various outside sources. On a quarterly basis we obtain an independent third-party valuation to corroborate the value estimated by our internal model. All of our MSRs are classified as a Level 3 asset.

Changes in economic and other relevant conditions could cause our assumptions, such as with respect to the prepayment speeds, to be different than our estimates. The key assumptions used to estimate the fair value of MSRs are prepayment speeds and the discount rate. Increases in prepayment speeds generally have an adverse effect on the value of MSRs as the underlying loans prepay faster, which causes accelerated MSR amortization. Increases in the discount rate result in a lower MSR value and decreases in the discount rate result in a higher MSR value. See Note 3, Mortgage Servicing Rights of the notes in the condensed combined financial statements included elsewhere in this Form 10-Q for an illustration of the hypothetical effect on the fair value of the MSRs using various unfavorable variations of the expected levels of the assumed discount rate and prepayment speeds used in valuing MSRs.

Derivative financial instruments

We enter into IRLCs, forward commitments to sell mortgage loans, and forward commitments to purchase mortgage loans which are considered derivative financial instruments. Our derivative financial instruments are accounted for as free-standing derivatives and are included in the combined balance sheets at fair value. Changes in the fair value of the IRLCs and forward commitments to sell mortgage loans derivative instruments are recognized in current period earnings and are included in gain on sale of loans in the combined statements of income. Forward commitments to purchase mortgage loans are recognized in current period earnings and are included as a component of servicing fee income.

Commitments to fund residential mortgage loans with our potential borrowers are a binding agreement to lend funds to these potential borrowers at a specified interest rate within a specified period of time. The fair value of IRLCs is derived from the fair value of similar mortgage loans or bonds, which is based on observable market data. Changes to the fair value of IRLCs are recognized based on changes in interest rates, changes in the probability that the commitment will be exercised (pull through factor), and the passage of time. The expected net future cash flows related to the associated servicing of the loan are included in the fair value measurement of IRLCs. Given the unobservable nature of the pull through factor, IRLCs are classified as Level 3.

57


Outstanding IRLCs and mortgage loans held for sale not yet committed to trade expose us to the risk that the price of the mortgage loans held and mortgage loans underlying the commitments might decline due to increases in mortgage interest rates during the life of the commitment. To protect against this risk, we use forward loan sale commitments to economically hedge the risk of potential changes in the value of the loans. MSR assets (including the MSR value associated with outstanding IRLCs) that have been identified to be sold expose us to the risk that the price of MSRs might decline due to decreases in mortgage interest rates prior to the sale of these assets. To protect against this risk, we use forward loan purchase commitments to economically hedge the risk of potential changes in the value of the MSR assets that have been identified for sale. We expect that the changes in fair value of the forward commitments will either substantially or partially offset the changes in fair value of the IRLCs, uncommitted mortgage loans held for sale, and MSR assets that we intend to sell. Our forward commitments are valued based on quoted prices for similar assets in an active market with inputs that are observable and are classified as Level 2 assets and liabilities.

Changes in economic or other relevant conditions could cause our assumptions with respect to forward commitments to be different than our estimates. Decreases in the market yields of mortgage loans result in a lower fair value for forward commitments to sell mortgage loans and increases in market yields of mortgage loans result in lower fair value for forward commitments to purchase mortgage loans.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our CEO and CFO, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), as of the end of the period covered by this Form 10-Q. Based on such evaluation, our CEO and CFO have concluded that as of June 30, 2020, our disclosure controls and procedures are designed at a reasonable assurance level and are effective to provide reasonable assurance that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO and CFO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in management’s evaluation pursuant to Rules 13a-15(d) or 15d-15(d) of the Exchange Act during the period covered by this Form 10-Q that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures

In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.

From time to time we may be involved in disputes or litigation relating to claims arising out of our operations. We are not currently a party to any legal proceedings that could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
We have disclosed under the heading “Risk Factors” in our Prospectus, the risk factors that materially affect our business, financial condition or results of operations. There have been no material changes from the risk factors previously disclosed. You should carefully consider the risk factors set forth in the Prospectus and the other information set forth elsewhere in this Form 10-Q. You should be aware that these risk factors and other information may not described every risk that we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

Initial Public Offering

On August 7, 2020 we completed our IPO, which closed on August 10, 2020. Pursuant to the Registration Statement on Form S-1 (Registration No. 333-239726), which was declared effective by the SEC on August 5, 2020, we registered 100,000,000 shares of Class A common stock. All 100,000,000 shares of our Class A common stock were sold in the IPO at a price per share to the public of $18.00 for an aggregate offering price of $1.8 billion. Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC, J.P. Morgan Securities LLC and RBC Capital Markets, LLC were the representatives of the underwriters. The following tables show the per share and total underwriting discounts and commissions to be paid by us to the underwriters:

Underwriting Discounts and Commissions Paid By Us

0.41
Total
$
40,500,000

The total net proceeds of the IPO were approximately $1.760 billion. Of the proceeds, approximately $40.5 million was used to pay underwriting discounts and commissions, and the remaining $1.720 billion was used to purchase 100,000,000 of Holdings units and corresponding shares of Class D common stock from RHI.

We incurred costs relating to the IPO in the amount of $14.5 million, which were paid or otherwise borne by RKT Holdings, LLC. There has been no material change in the planned use of the IPO net proceeds from the use of proceeds described in the Prospectus.

Issuances of Class A common stock and Class D common stock

In July 2020, in connection with our reorganization, we issued an aggregate 1,983,279,483 of our shares of Class D common stock to Dan Gilbert and RHI, for an aggregate consideration of $20 million.
