credit / rates affecting interest expense

“The increases were primarily due to an increase in interest expense on borrowings attributable to the Company financing a larger investment in MSRs and increased interest shortfalls on repayments of loans serviced for Agency securitizations during 2026, partially offset by an increase in interest income from loans held for sale and placement fees. ​ Management Fees from PennyMac Mortgage Investment Trust ​ Management fees decreased $59,000 and $309,000 during the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2026, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2025, due to decreases in PMT’s average shareholders’ equity which is the basis for the base management fees.”
