loanDepot, Inc. Announces Issuance of Term Notes Secured by Ginnie Mae MSRs

loanDepot, Inc. (NYSE: LDI) (together with its subsidiaries, "loanDepot" or the "Company"), a leading provider of products and services that power the homeownership journey, today announced that it has completed the private offering of secured term notes (the “Notes”) in an aggregate principal amount of $200 million issued by the Company’s indirect subsidiary, loanDepot GMSR Master Trust (the “Issuer”). The Notes are secured by certain assets of the Issuer, including portfolio excess spread relating to mortgage servicing rights on mortgage loans underlying certain mortgage-backed securities guaranteed by Ginnie Mae.

The Notes are variable rate based on SOFR plus a margin and mature on May 16, 2030, or, if maturity is extended, on May 17, 2032. Proceeds of the issuance, net of fees, were used to redeem the Series 2018-GT1 Term Notes previously issued by the Issuer and due to mature in October 2025.

Nomura Securities International, Inc. (“Nomura”) served as the manager and the initial purchaser. Alston & Bird LLP represented loanDepot as Issuer’s counsel.

“I am very pleased with the attractive terms and successful execution of this transaction, which highlights the strength and breadth of loanDepot’s financing strategy and attractive capital raising alternatives, including strong relationships with a leading investment bank like Nomura,” said loanDepot’s Chief Financial Officer David Hayes. “Nomura with their strength and experience in securitized products, has been an important strategic partner of loanDepot and we are pleased to have them lead this transaction.”

“We are excited to be a long-standing partner with loanDepot. Our flexible capital and extensive structuring capabilities provide creative solutions for our partners as well as differentiated asset-based finance investments for our clients,” said Sanil Patel, Global Head, Mortgage Structured Lending, Nomura Securities International.

The Notes will not be registered under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”) or offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. This press release is an announcement of record only and shall not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy nor shall there be any sale of these securities in any state in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any state.
