COOP Analyst Ratings
Bulls say
Mr. Cooper Group Inc. demonstrated strong performance in the fourth quarter, with total originations funded rising 36% quarter-over-quarter to $9.3 billion, illustrating the company's successful capture of market share, particularly in the direct-to-consumer channel. The servicing portfolio saw substantial growth, increasing to $1,556 billion, attributed largely to the acquisition of Flagstar, which has elevated both the volume of servicing and expectations for future earnings. Management's guidance indicates a projected return on equity of 16-20% for 2025 and 2026, supported by investments in technology, expansion in the origination market, and a strategy focused on reducing costs and increasing fee revenues, which bolsters a positive outlook for the company's financial health.
Bears say
Mr. Cooper Group Inc. is experiencing a marked decline in its financial outlook, primarily due to a significant decrease in pull-through adjusted-lock gain-on-sale origination margins, which fell to 1.19% from 1.68%, indicating potential challenges in maintaining profitability despite growth in origination volume. Additionally, the company’s refinancing recapture rate plummeted to 35% from 69% sequentially, raising concerns regarding its ability to capitalize on existing customers and the overall health of its mortgage portfolio. Furthermore, the forward margin estimates have been reduced, reflecting expectations of lower blended gain-on-sale margins stemming from a continued shift towards the less profitable correspondent channel, suggesting a troubling trend for the company’s revenue generation capabilities moving forward.
This aggregate rating is based on analysts' research of Mr. Cooper Group Inc and is not a guaranteed prediction by Public.com or investment advice.
