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

August 19, 2025 at 06:00 AM EDT

loanDepot, Inc. (NYSE: LDI) (together with its subsidiaries, "loanDepot" or the "Company"), today announced that it has completed the private offering of secured term notes (the “Notes”) in an aggregate principal amount of $150 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 July 16, 2030. Proceeds of the issuance, net of fees, were used to partially pay down a variable funding note previously issued by the Issuer and secured by Ginnie Mae mortgage servicing rights.

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

“Our ability to finance MSR assets is an important balance sheet and risk management tool for the Company,” said loanDepot’s Chief Financial Officer David Hayes. “I am very pleased with the attractive terms and successful execution of this transaction, which provides us with important diversification and term extension relative to our existing financing. 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.”

"The strong investor demand for loanDepot’s second GMSR offering this year, on the back of a very successful first transaction less than two months ago, is a testament to the strength of loanDepot's platform and servicing performance,” said Nomura’s Global Head of Mortgage Structured Lending Sanil Patel. “This transaction allowed Nomura to broaden loanDepot’s investor base, further highlighting Nomura’s distribution and execution capabilities. We're proud to build on our successful partnership with loanDepot."

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.
