Mortgage Banking Platform Growth:
- Sequoia Mortgage Banking posted strong quarterly performance, generating segment net income of $22 million and a 19% annualized ROE, with a 15% sequential increase in jumbo loan lock volume to $3.3 billion.
- Growth was driven by increased market share, operating efficiencies, and accretive channels for distribution, amidst evolving market dynamics in single-family housing and shifts in bank lending practices.
Legacy Portfolio Decline and Capital Reallocation:
- Legacy investments recorded a $104 million loss for the quarter, contributing to a 17% reduction in capital allocated to this segment since March 31, 2025.
- This reduction is part of a broader strategy to reallocate approximately $200 million to $250 million of additional capital towards higher-earning core platforms by year-end.
Increased Share Repurchases:
- Redwood Trust began repurchasing its common shares, buying back 2.4 million shares since June 2025, with plans to become more aggressive buyers following an increased stock repurchase authorization to $150 million.
