PMT Analyst Ratings
Bulls say
PennyMac Mortgage Investment Trust reported a significant increase in total conventional volume, rising approximately 12% to $2.74 billion, reflecting strong demand in the residential mortgage market, while jumbo volumes remained stable at $346 million. The company's projected run-rate return on equity (ROE) of 9.9% indicates an increase in earnings per quarter, rising from $0.35 to $0.38, demonstrating improved profitability potential. Additionally, total leverage increased to 7.8x from 6.7x, indicating the company's continued capacity to utilize financial leverage effectively for growth and strategic investments.
Bears say
PennyMac Mortgage Investment Trust has experienced a reduction in book value in the second quarter, contributing to a delayed timeframe in achieving a double-digit return on equity (ROE). The servicing unpaid principal balance (UPB) has also decreased slightly to $221.6 billion from $224.6 billion, indicating a contraction in the company's servicing portfolio. Additionally, mortgage servicing rights (MSRs) have remained flat at $3.74 billion, down marginally from $3.77 billion, which suggests a stagnation in the potential profitability of its mortgage servicing operations.
