What’s Shaping RITM’s Q3 Results?

Higher fees, interest income and multiple acquisitions are expected to have supported its revenue growth. The favorable interest rate environment is expected to have supported Rithm in generating enhanced returns from specific investments and consumer loans. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for third-quarter interest income indicates 2.3% year-over-year growth.

The growing profitability of its Newrez business is likely to have aided its Origination & Servicing segment. Also, the Zacks Consensus Estimate for third-quarter net gain on originated residential mortgage loans indicates a 12.6% year-over-year increase.

The above-mentioned factors are expected to have positioned the company for year-over-year growth in revenues.

The consensus mark for asset management revenues is pegged at $85.1 million, sequentially down from $109.4 million.
