New Residential Investment Corp. Completes Previously Announced Acquisition of Caliber Home Loans, Inc. and Raises Third Quarter 2021 Common Dividend to $0.25

  • New Residential to combine Newrez and Caliber platforms into premier financial services company
  • New Residential declares increased third quarter 2021 common dividend of $0.25 per common share

New Residential Investment Corp. (NYSE: NRZ; “New Residential” or the “Company”) announced today that it completed the previously announced acquisition of Caliber Homes Loans, Inc. (“Caliber”), a leading mortgage originator and servicer. The transaction was initially announced on April 14, 2021.

“The completion of the Caliber acquisition is another significant step in growing a leading mortgage company with tremendous earnings power within New Residential,” said Michael Nierenberg, Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and President of New Residential. “We are very pleased to reach this milestone and officially welcome Caliber into the New Residential family. With this acquisition we have extended our ability to offer a broad spectrum of mortgage products to borrowers throughout their homeownership journey. We expect the combination of Caliber and Newrez to contribute meaningfully to New Residential’s growth in 2021 and beyond.”

Upon close of the acquisition, New Residential intends to bring together the complementary mortgage platforms of Caliber and Newrez LLC (“Newrez”), New Residential’s wholly owned mortgage originator and servicer. The strategic acquisition expands New Residential’s capabilities, products and presence across mortgage origination and servicing. In particular, the acquisition adds approximately $150 billion UPB of MSRs, technological enhancements, exceptional talent, and an extensive local footprint particularly in purchase lending. New Residential expects that the combined company will offer more products across the mortgage spectrum, making it easier for customers and partners to get the solutions best suited for their homeownership goals. On a combined basis, Newrez and Caliber funded approximately $45 billion UPB of volume during the second quarter of 2021 and serviced approximately $465 billion UPB of mortgage loans, ranking their combined performance amongst the Top 5 non-bank leaders in both categories.

Leadership

Following the close of the acquisition, Sanjiv Das and Baron Silverstein will lead the combined platform with Sanjiv Das taking on the role of Chief Executive Officer and Baron Silverstein taking on the role of President and Chief Operating Officer.

Said Mr. Nierenberg, “Sanjiv and Baron each bring robust experience in financial services and consumer lending and have demonstrated track records of success in growing organizations and achieving exceptional results. Their backgrounds, expertise, and styles will serve to create a dynamic and collaborative leadership team unmatched in the market. I look forward to what the combined organization will achieve under their collective leadership.”

Financing

New Residential financed the acquisition through a mix of existing cash and available liquidity on the New Residential and Caliber balance sheets.

Third Quarter Common Dividend

New Residential also announced today that its Board of Directors has declared an increased third quarter 2021 common stock dividend of $0.25 per common share. The third quarter common stock dividend is payable on October 29, 2021 to shareholders of record on October 4, 2021.
