NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

Note 1—Organization and Basis of Presentation

PennyMac Mortgage Investment Trust (“PMT” or the “Company”) was organized in Maryland on May 18, 2009, and began operations on August 4, 2009, when it completed its initial offerings of common shares of beneficial interest (“shares”). The Company is a specialty finance company, which, through its subsidiaries (all of which are wholly-owned), invests primarily in residential mortgage loans and mortgage-related assets.

The Company is externally managed by an affiliate, PNMAC Capital Management, LLC (“PCM” or the “Manager”), an investment adviser registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) that specializes in and focuses on residential mortgage loans. Under the terms of a management agreement, PCM is entitled to be paid a management fee with a base component and a performance incentive component. Determination of the amount of management fees is discussed in Note 3—Transactions with Related Parties.

The Company’s objective is to provide attractive risk-adjusted returns to its investors over the long-term, principally through dividends and secondarily through capital appreciation. The Company intends to achieve this objective largely by investing in distressed mortgage assets and acquiring, pooling and selling newly originated prime credit quality residential mortgage loans (“correspondent lending”).

The Company reports its results in two segments: investment activities and correspondent lending. The investment activities segment focuses on mortgage assets that are acquired and held for investment purposes and the correspondent lending segment focuses on the purchase for resale of newly originated mortgage loans.

The investment activities segment represents the Company’s investments in distressed mortgage loans, real estate acquired in settlement of loans (“REO”), mortgage-backed securities (“MBS”) and mortgage servicing rights (“MSRs”). Management seeks to maximize the value of the distressed mortgage loans acquired by the Company through proprietary loan modification programs, special servicing and other initiatives focused on keeping borrowers in their homes. Where this is not possible, such as in the case of many nonperforming mortgage loans, the Company seeks to effect property resolution in a timely, orderly and economically efficient manner, including through the use of resolution alternatives to foreclosure.

The correspondent lending segment represents the Company’s operations aimed at serving as an intermediary between mortgage lenders and the capital markets by purchasing, pooling and reselling newly originated prime credit quality mortgage loans either directly or in the form of MBS, using the services of the Manager and an affiliated company, PennyMac Loan Services, LLC (“PLS”).

The Company believes that it qualifies, and has elected to be taxed, as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Internal Revenue Code”), beginning with its taxable period ended on December 31, 2009. To maintain its tax status as a REIT, the Company plans to distribute at least 90% of its taxable income in the form of qualifying distributions to shareholders.

The Company conducts substantially all of its operations and makes substantially all of its investments through its subsidiary, PennyMac Operating Partnership, L.P. (the “Operating Partnership”), and the Operating Partnership’s subsidiaries. A subsidiary of the Company is the sole general partner, and the Company is the sole limited partner, of the Operating Partnership.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in compliance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the SEC’s instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, these financial statements and notes do not include all of the information required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. The interim consolidated information should be read together with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011 (the “Annual Report”).

5

Certain amounts in prior presentations have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation. For the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2011, $361,000 and $628,000 in collection expenses were reclassified from other expenses to loan servicing expenses to conform to the current presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on previously reported shareholders’ equity, net income or earnings per share amounts.

Preparation of financial statements in compliance with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results will likely differ from those estimates.

In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the periods ended September 30, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of the results for the year ending December 31, 2012.

Note 2—Concentration of Risks

As discussed in Note 1—Organization and Basis of Presentation above, PMT’s investing activities are centered in real estate-related assets, a substantial portion of which are distressed at acquisition. Because of the Company’s investment strategy, many of the mortgage loans in its targeted asset class are purchased at discounts reflecting their distressed state or perceived higher risk of default, as well as a greater likelihood of collateral documentation deficiencies. Before the Company buys loans or other assets, PCM validates key information provided by the sellers that is necessary to determine the value of the acquired asset. A substantial portion of the distressed mortgage loans purchased by the Company has been acquired from or through one or more subsidiaries of Citigroup, Inc.

Through its management agreement with PCM and its loan servicing agreement with PLS, PMT works with borrowers to perform loss mitigation activities. Such activities include the use of loan modification programs (such as the U.S. Department of the Treasury and Housing and Urban Development’s Home Affordable Modification Program (“HAMP”)) and workout options that PCM believes have the highest probability of successful resolution for both borrowers and PMT. Loan modification or resolution may include PMT accepting a reduction of the principal balances of certain mortgage loans in its investment portfolio. When loan modifications and other efforts are unable to cure distressed loans, the Company’s objective is to effect timely acquisition and liquidation of the property securing the mortgage loan.

Because of the Company’s investment focus, PMT is exposed, to a greater extent than traditional mortgage investors, to the risks that borrowers may be in financial distress and/or may have become unemployed, bankrupt or otherwise unable or unwilling to make payments when due, and to the effects of fluctuations in the residential real estate market on the performance of its investments. Factors influencing these risks include, but are not limited to:

• changes in the overall economy, unemployment and residential real estate values in the markets where the properties securing the Company’s mortgage loans are located;

• PCM’s ability to identify and the Company’s loan servicers’ ability to execute optimal resolutions of problem mortgage loans;

• the accuracy of valuation information obtained during the Company’s due diligence activities;

• PCM’s ability to effectively model, and to develop appropriate model assumptions that properly anticipate, future outcomes;

• the level of government support for problem loan resolution and the effect of current and future proposed and enacted legislative and regulatory changes on the Company’s ability to service and effect cures or resolutions to distressed loans; and

6

• regulatory, judicial and legislative support of the foreclosure process, and the resulting impact on the Company’s ability to acquire and liquidate the real estate securing its portfolio of distressed mortgage loans in a timely manner or at all.

Due to these uncertainties, there can be no assurance that risk management activities identified and executed on PMT’s behalf will prevent significant losses arising from the Company’s investments in real estate-related assets.

On July 12, 2011 and December 20, 2011, the Company entered into forward purchase agreements with Citigroup Global Markets Realty Corp. (“CGM”), a subsidiary of Citigroup Inc., to purchase certain nonperforming residential mortgage loans and residential real property acquired in settlement of loans (collectively, the “CGM Assets”). The CGM Assets were acquired by CGM from unaffiliated money center banks. The commitment under the forward purchase agreement dated July 12, 2011 was settled during the quarter ended June 30, 2012. The commitment under the forward purchase agreement dated December 20, 2011 was settled during the quarter ended September 30, 2012.

The CGM Assets were included on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet as Mortgage loans under forward purchase agreements at fair value and Real estate acquired in settlement of loans under forward purchase agreements and the related liabilities were included as Borrowings under forward purchase agreements. The CGM Assets were held by CGM within a separate trust entity deemed a variable interest entity. The Company’s interests in the CGM Assets were deemed to be contractually segregated from all other interests in the trust. When assets are contractually segregated, they are often referred to as a “silo.” For these transactions, the silo consisted of the CGM Assets and its related liability. The Company directed all of the activities that drive the economic results of the CGM Assets. All of the changes in the fair value and cash flows of the CGM Assets were attributable solely to the Company, and such cash flows could only be used to settle the related liability.

As a result of consolidating the silo, the Company’s consolidated statements of income and cash flows for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 includes the following amounts related to the silo:

	Quarter ended September 30,					Nine months ended September 30,
	2012			2011		2012		2011
	(in thousands)
Net income:
Net gain on mortgage loans	$	105		$	10,041	$	9,293	$	10,041
Interest income on mortgage loans	$	146		$	625	$	996	$	625
Results of REO	$	(4	)	$	—	$	1,870	$	—

Cash flows:

Sales of REO	$	—		$	—	$	9,912	$	—
Repayments of borrowings under forward purchase agreements	$	16,859		$	11,115	$	157,166	$	11,115

The Company has no other variable interests in the trust entity, or other exposure to the creditors of the trust entity which could expose the Company to loss.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, the Company purchased $411.4 million of mortgage loans at fair value and real estate acquired in settlement of loans for its investment portfolio. All of the $411.4 million was purchased from or through one or more subsidiaries of Citigroup, Inc.

Beginning in the fourth quarter of 2011, the Company’s correspondent lending activities have been experiencing substantial growth. As a result of such growth, the Company’s correspondent lending segment

7

contributed approximately 49% of PMT’s pre-tax income during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and the inventory of mortgage loans acquired for sale at fair value represented approximately 40% of the Company’s investments at September 30, 2012.

Correspondent lending activities introduce different risks from those posed by investments in distressed assets. The Company’s correspondent lending activities and the MSRs resulting from such activities are more sensitive to the level and volatility of interest rates. For example, a decline in mortgage rates generally increases the demand for home loans as borrowers refinance, but also generally leads to accelerated payoffs in the Company’s mortgage servicing portfolio, which have a negative effect on the value of MSRs.

Management attempts to manage the sensitivity of earnings to the changes in market interest rates through the use of derivative financial instruments to moderate the effects of changes in the level and volatility of interest rates on the fair value of the Company’s inventory of mortgage loans acquired for sale at fair value and commitments to purchase mortgage loans for sale. The Company does not presently use derivative financial instruments to moderate the effects on PMT’s earnings of changes in the fair value of its investment in MSRs.

The success of the Company’s interest rate risk management strategies depends in part on management’s ability to predict the earnings sensitivity of its loan purchasing and its loan servicing activities in various interest rate environments. There are many market factors that affect the performance of the Company’s interest rate risk management activities including interest rate volatility, the shape of the yield curve and the spread between mortgage interest rates and United States Treasury or swap rates. The success of this strategy affects PMT’s net income and the effect can be either positive or negative, and can be material to the Company.

The correspondent lending segment’s ability to sell loans profitably is affected by many factors, including the relative demands for such loans and MBS evidencing interests in such loans, the cost of credit enhancements and interest rate risk management, investor perceptions of such loans and MBS and the risks posed by such products.

Note 3—Transactions with Related Parties

The Company is managed externally by PCM under the terms of a management agreement that expires on August 4, 2013 and will continue to be automatically renewed for a one-year term on each anniversary date thereafter unless previously terminated. The management agreement provides for an annual review of PCM’s performance under the management agreement by the Company’s independent trustees. PMT’s board of trustees reviews the Company’s financial results, policy compliance and strategic direction.

As more fully described in the Company’s Annual Report, certain of the underwriting costs incurred in the Company’s initial public offering (“IPO”) were paid on PMT’s behalf by PCM and a portion of the underwriting discount was deferred by agreement with the underwriters of the offering. PMT will reimburse PCM the underwriting costs as discussed in Note 25—Shareholders’ Equity.

PMT pays PCM a base management fee and may pay a performance incentive fee, both payable quarterly and in arrears.

The management fees are more fully described in Note 4—Transactions with Related Parties to the Company’s Annual Report. Effective May 16, 2012, the Company amended its management agreement with PCM to change the way shareholders’ equity is measured for purposes of calculating the base component of its management fee. Previously, the measure of shareholders’ equity excluded unrealized gains, losses or other non-cash items reflected in the Company’s financial statements. The management agreement was amended to base the management fee on shareholders’ equity computed using U.S. GAAP. The method of measuring the performance incentive fee was not changed. The purpose of the amendment was to better align the Manager’s base management fee with the Company’s investment strategy, which, in the pursuit of attractive investment opportunities, has evolved to include nonperforming mortgage loans that generate unrealized gains and correspondent lending activity that produces non-cash income through the retention of MSRs created in the sales transactions. The amendment is expected to increase the amount of the base management fee payable by the Company to the Manager.

The Company, through its Operating Partnership, also has a loan servicing agreement with PLS. Servicing fee rates are based on the risk characteristics of the mortgage loans serviced and total servicing compensation is established at levels that management believes are competitive with those charged by other servicers or specialty servicers, as applicable.

Servicing fee rates for nonperforming loans range between 30 and 100 basis points per year on the unpaid principal balance of the mortgage loans serviced on the Company’s behalf. PLS is also entitled to certain customary market-based fees and charges, including boarding and deboarding fees, liquidation and disposition fees, assumption, modification and origination fees and late charges, as well as interest on funds on deposit in custodial accounts. In the event PLS either effects a refinancing of a loan on the Company’s behalf and not through a third party lender and the resulting loan is readily saleable, or originates a loan to facilitate the disposition of real estate that the Company has acquired in settlement of a loan, PLS is entitled to receive market-based fees and compensation from the Company.

PLS, on behalf of the Company, currently participates in HAMP (and other similar mortgage loan modification programs), which establishes standard loan modification guidelines for “at risk” homeowners and provides incentive payments to certain participants, including loan servicers, for achieving modifications and successfully remaining in the program. The loan servicing agreement entitles PLS to retain any incentive payments made to it and to which it is entitled under HAMP; provided, however, that with respect to any such incentive payments paid to PLS under HAMP in connection with a mortgage loan modification for which the Company previously paid PLS a modification fee, PLS shall reimburse the Company an amount equal to the lesser of such modification fee or such incentive payments.

In connection with the MSRs acquired in the Company’s correspondent lending business, through which the Company acquires mortgage loans originated by correspondent lenders for resale to the government-sponsored

agencies such as the Federal National Mortgage Association (“Fannie Mae”) and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“FHLMC”) (Fannie Mae and FHLMC, along with the Government National Mortgage Association (“GNMA”) are each referred to as an “Agency” and, collectively, as the “Agencies”) and other investors, PLS is entitled to base subservicing fees, which range from 4 to 20 basis points per year of the unpaid principal balance of such loans, and other customary market-based fees and charges as described above.

Pursuant to the terms of a mortgage banking services agreement, PLS also provides certain mortgage banking services, including fulfillment and disposition-related services, to the Company for a fulfillment fee based on a percentage of the unpaid principal balance of the mortgage loans sold to non-affiliates where the Company is approved or licensed to sell to such non-affiliate. The fulfillment fee for such services is currently 50 basis points.

The Company is not an approved issuer of GNMA securities and therefore is not able to sell government-guaranteed or insured loans into such securities. As a result, the Company and PLS have agreed that PLS will fulfill and purchase the government-guaranteed or insured loans it acquires from correspondents. This arrangement has enabled the Company to compete with other correspondent lenders that purchase both government and conventional loans. For these government-guaranteed or insured loans, the Company does not pay a fulfillment fee, but collects interest income and a sourcing fee of three basis points for each mortgage loan it purchases from a correspondent and sells to PLS for ultimate disposition to GNMA.

PCM’s parent company, Private National Mortgage Acceptance Company, LLC, held 75,000 of the Company’s common shares of beneficial interest at both September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011.

Note 4—Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share is determined using net income divided by the weighted-average common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income attributable to common shareholders by the weighted-average common shares outstanding, assuming all potentially dilutive common shares were issued. In periods in which the Company records a loss, potentially dilutive common shares are excluded from the diluted loss per share calculation, as their effect on loss per share is anti-dilutive.

The Company makes grants of restricted share units which entitle the recipients to receive dividend equivalents during the vesting period on a basis equivalent to the dividends paid to holders of common shares. For purposes of calculating earnings per share, unvested share-based compensation awards containing non-forfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents (collectively, “dividends”) are classified as “participating securities” and are included in the basic earnings per share calculation using the two-class method. Under the two-class method, all earnings (distributed and undistributed) are allocated to each class of common shares and participating securities, based on their respective rights to receive dividends.

The following table summarizes the basic and diluted earnings per share calculations for the periods presented:

	Quarter ended September 30,						Nine months ended September 30,
	2012			2011			2012			2011

Note 5—Loan Sales

Note 6—Fair Value

The Company’s financial statements include assets and liabilities that are measured based on their estimated fair values. Measurement of these assets and liabilities at fair value may be on a recurring or nonrecurring basis depending on the accounting principles applicable to the specific asset or liability and whether management has elected to carry the item at its estimated fair value as discussed in the following paragraphs.

Fair Value Accounting Elections

Management identified all of its non cash financial assets, including short-term investments, United States Treasury security, MBS, and mortgage loans as well as its securities sold under agreements to repurchase and its MSRs relating to loans with initial interest rates of more than 4.5% that were acquired as a result of its correspondent lending operations to be accounted for at estimated fair value so such changes in fair value will be reflected in income as they occur and more timely reflect the results of the Company’s investment performance.

For MSRs relating to mortgage loans with initial interest rates of less than or equal to 4.5% that were acquired as a result of the Company’s correspondent lending operations, management has concluded that such assets present different risks to the Company than MSRs relating to mortgage loans with initial interest rates of more than 4.5% and therefore require a different risk management approach. Management’s risk management efforts relating to these assets are aimed at moderating the effects of non-interest rate risks on fair value, such as the effect of changes in home prices on the assets’ values. Management has identified these assets for accounting using the amortization method. Management’s risk management efforts in connection with MSRs relating to mortgage loans with initial interest rates of more than 4.5% are aimed at moderating the effects of changes in interest rates on the assets’ values.

For loans sold under agreements to repurchase subject to agreements made beginning in December 2010, REO financed through agreements to repurchase beginning in June 2011 and borrowings under forward purchase agreements beginning in July 2011, management has determined that historical cost accounting is more appropriate because under this method debt issuance costs are spread over the term of the debt, thereby matching the debt issuance expense to the periods benefiting from the usage of the debt.

Real Estate Acquired in Settlement of Loans

The Company measures its investment in REO at the respective properties’ estimated fair values less cost to sell on a nonrecurring basis. The value of the REO is initially established as the lesser of either (a) the fair value of the loan at the date of transfer, (b) the fair value of the real estate less estimated costs to sell as of the date of transfer or (c) the purchase price of the property. REO may be subsequently revalued due to the Company receiving greater access to the property, the property being held for an extended period or management receiving indications that the property’s value may not be supported by developing market conditions. Any subsequent change in fair value to a level that is less than or equal to the value at which the property was initially recorded is recognized in Results of real estate acquired in settlement of loans in the consolidated statements of income.

Mortgage Servicing Rights at Lower of Amortized Cost or Fair Value

The Company evaluates its MSRs at lower of amortized cost or fair value for impairment with reference to the assets’ fair value. For purposes of performing its MSR impairment evaluation, the Company stratifies its MSRs at lower of amortized cost or fair value based on the interest rates borne by the mortgage loans underlying

21

the MSRs. Mortgage loans are grouped into note rate pools of 50 basis points for fixed-rate mortgage loans with note rates between 3% and 4.5% and a single pool for mortgage loans with note rates below 3%. MSRs relating to adjustable rate mortgage loans with initial interest rates of 4.5% or less are evaluated in a single pool. If the fair value of MSRs in any of the note rate pools is below the carrying value of the MSRs for that pool reduced by any existing valuation allowance, those MSRs are impaired.

When MSRs are impaired, the impairment is recognized in current-period earnings and the carrying value of the MSRs is adjusted using a valuation allowance. If the value of the MSRs subsequently increases, the restoration of value is recognized in current period earnings only to the extent of the valuation allowance.

Management periodically reviews the various impairment strata to determine whether the value of the impaired MSRs in a given stratum is likely to recover. When management deems recovery of the value to be unlikely in the foreseeable future, a write-down of the cost of the MSRs for that stratum to its estimated fair value is charged to the valuation allowance.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments Carried at Amortized Cost

The Company’s cash balances as well as its borrowings secured by its inventory of mortgage loans acquired for sale and its investments in nonperforming loans and REO in the form of repurchase agreements and borrowings under forward purchase agreements are carried at amortized costs. The election to carry the borrowings at amortized cost is discussed in Fair Value Accounting Elections above.

Management has concluded that the estimated fair values of Cash, Mortgage loans acquired for sale at fair value sold under agreements to repurchase, Mortgage loans at fair value sold under agreements to repurchase, Real estate acquired in settlement of loans financed under agreements to repurchase, Note payable secured by mortgage loans at fair value and Borrowings under forward purchase agreements approximate the agreements’ carrying values due to the immediate realizability of cash at its carrying amount and to the borrowing agreements’ short terms and variable interest rates.

Cash is measured using Level 1 Inputs. The Company’s borrowings carried at amortized cost do not have active markets or observable inputs and the fair value is measured using management’s best estimate of fair value, where the inputs into the determination of fair value require significant management judgment or estimation. The Company has classified these financial instruments as Level 3 as of September 30, 2012 due to the lack of current market activity and the Company’s reliance on unobservable inputs to estimate the fair value.

Valuation Process, Techniques and Assumptions

Most of the Company’s assets are carried at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in current period results of operations. A substantial portion of those assets are “Level 3” financial statement items which require the use of significant unobservable inputs in the estimation of the assets’ values. Unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s own assumptions about the factors that market participants use in pricing an asset or liability, and are based on the best information available under the circumstances.

The Manager has assigned the responsibility for estimating the fair values of “Level 3” financial statement items to a specialized valuation group and has developed procedures and controls governing the valuation process relating to these assets. The estimation of fair values of the Company’s financial assets are assigned to the Manager’s Financial Analysis and Valuation group (the “FAV group”), which is responsible for valuing and monitoring the Company’s investment portfolios and maintenance of its valuation policies and procedures.

The FAV group reports to the Manager’s senior management valuation committee, which oversees and approves the valuations. The valuation committee includes the chief executive, financial, investment and credit officers of the Manager. The FAV group monitors the models used for valuation of the Company’s “Level 3” financial statement items, including the models’ performance versus actual results and reports those results to the valuation committee. The results developed in the FAV group’s monitoring activities are used to calibrate subsequent projections used for valuation.

22

The FAV group is responsible for reporting to the valuation committee on a monthly basis on the changes in the valuation of the portfolio, including major drivers affecting the valuation and any changes in model methods and assumptions. To assess the reasonableness of its valuations, the FAV group presents an analysis of the effect on the valuation of each of the changes to the significant inputs to the models.

The following describes the methods used in estimating the fair values of Level 2 and Level 3 financial statement items:

Mortgage-Backed Securities

MBS values are presently determined based on whether the securities are issued by one of the Agencies as discussed below:

• Agency MBS are categorized as “Level 2” financial statement items. Fair value of Agency MBS is estimated based on quoted market prices for similar securities.

• Non-Agency MBS are categorized as “Level 3” financial statement items. Fair value of non-Agency MBS is estimated using broker indications of value. For indications of value received, the FAV group and a separate Capital Markets group review the price indications provided by non-affiliate brokers for completeness, accuracy and consistency across all similar MBS managed by the Manager. Bond-level analytics such as yield, weighted average life and projected prepayment and default speeds of the underlying collateral are computed. The reasonableness of the brokers’ indications of value and of changes in value from period to period is evaluated in light of the analytical review performed and considering market conditions. The review of the FAV group is reported to the Manager’s valuation committee as part of its review and approval of monthly valuation results. The Manager has not adjusted, and does not intend to adjust, its fair value estimates to amounts different than the brokers’ indications of value.

The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Company’s non-Agency MBS are discount rates, prepayment speeds, default speeds and loss severities in the event of default (or “collateral remaining loss percentage”). Significant changes in any of those inputs in isolation could result in a significant change in fair value measurement. Changes in these assumptions are not directly correlated, as they may be separately affected by changes in collateral characteristics and performance, servicer behavior, legal and regulatory actions, economic and housing market data and market sentiment.

23

Following is a quantitative summary of key inputs used by the FAV group to evaluate the reasonableness of the fair value of Level 3 MBS:

		Range (Weighted Average)
Security Class	Key Inputs(1)	September 30, 2012		December 31, 2011
Non-Agency subprime	Discount rate		—	3.1% - 23.0%
			—	(8.0)%

			—	(12.3)%
	Collateral remaining loss percentage(4)		—	23.9% - 63.7%
			—	(47.0)%

			—	(6.2)%
	Prepayment speed(2)		—	0.5% - 8.9%
			—	(5.4)%
	Default speed(3)		—	3.0% - 11.5%
			—	(9.7)%
	Collateral remaining loss percentage(4)		—	11.4% - 36.4%

			—	(1.5)%
	Collateral remaining loss percentage(4)		—	0.4% - 0.4%
			—	(0.4)%

(1) Key inputs are those used to evaluate broker indications of value.

(2) Prepayment speed is measured using Life Voluntary Conditional Prepayment Rate (“CPR”).

(3) Default speed is measured using Life Constant Default Rate (“CDR”).

(4) The projected future losses on the loans in the collateral groups paying to each bond expressed as a percentage of the current balance of the loans.

Mortgage Loans

Fair value of mortgage loans is estimated based on whether the mortgage loans are saleable into active markets with established counterparties and transparent pricing:

• Mortgage loans that are saleable into active markets, comprised of the Company’s mortgage loans acquired for sale at fair value, are categorized as “Level 2” financial statement items and their fair values are estimated using their quoted market or contracted price or market price equivalent.

• Loans that are not saleable into active markets, comprised of the Company’s mortgage loans at fair value and mortgage loans under forward purchase agreements at fair value, are categorized as “Level 3” financial statement items, and their fair values are estimated using a discounted cash flow approach. Inputs to the discounted cash flow model include current interest rates, loan amount, payment status and property type, and forecasts of future interest rates, home prices, prepayment speeds, default and loss severities. The valuation process includes the computation by stratum of loan population and a review for reasonableness of various measures such as weighted average life, projected prepayment and default speeds, and projected default and loss percentages. The FAV group

24

computes the effect on the valuation of changes in input variables such as interest rates, home prices, and delinquency status to assess the reasonableness of changes in the loan valuation. The results of the estimates of fair value of “Level 3” mortgage loans are reported to PCM’s valuation committee as part of its review and approval of monthly valuation results.

Changes in fair value attributable to changes in instrument-specific credit risk are measured by the change in the respective loan’s delinquency status at period-end from the later of the beginning of the period or acquisition date.

The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Company’s mortgage loans at fair value and mortgage loans under forward purchase agreements at fair value are discount rate, home price projections, voluntary prepayment speeds and default speeds. Significant changes in any of those inputs in isolation could result in a significant change to the loans’ fair value measurement. Increases in home price projections are generally accompanied by an increase in voluntary prepayment speeds.

Following is a quantitative summary of key inputs used in the valuation of mortgage loans at fair value:

	Range (Weighted Average)
Key Inputs	September 30, 2012	December 31, 2011
Mortgage loans at fair value
Discount rate	9.2% - 22.1%	9.1% - 20.7%

Derivative Financial Instruments

The Company estimates the fair value of an interest rate lock commitment based on quoted Agency MBS prices, its estimate of the fair value of the MSRs it expects to receive in the sale of the loans and the probability that the mortgage loan will fund within the terms of the interest rate lock commitment.

The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Company’s interest rate lock commitments are the pull-through rate—the percentage of loans that the Company ultimately funds as a percentage of the commitments it has made—and the MSR component of the Company’s estimate of the value of the mortgage loans it has committed to purchase. Significant changes in any of those inputs, in isolation, could

25

result in a significant change in fair value measurement. Changes in these assumptions are generally inversely correlated as increasing interest rates have a negative effect on the fair value of mortgage loans and a positive effect on the fair value of MSRs that are created in the sale of such mortgage loans.

Following is a quantitative summary of key unobservable inputs used in the valuation of interest rate lock commitments:

	September 30, 2012	December 31, 2011
Key Inputs	Range (Weighted Average)
Pull-through rate	54.7% - 100.0%	55.0% - 98.0%
	(87.4%)	(78.0%)
MSR value expressed as:
Servicing fee multiple	1.75% -4.35%	2.81% - 5.74%
	(4.24%)	(5.23%)
Percentage of unpaid principal balance	0.44% -1.09%	0.70% - 1.43%
	(1.06%)	(1.31%)

The Company estimates the fair value of commitments to sell loans based on quoted MBS prices. The Company estimates the fair value of the MBS options and futures it purchases and sells based on observed interest rate volatilities in the MBS market. The Company estimates the fair value of its MBS interest rate swaptions based on quoted market prices.

Real Estate Acquired in Settlement of Loans

REO is measured based on its fair value on a nonrecurring basis and is categorized as a “Level 3” financial statement item. Fair value of REO is determined by using a current estimate of value from a broker’s price opinion or a full appraisal, or the price given in a current contract of sale.

REO values are reviewed by PCM’s staff appraisers when the Company obtains multiple indications of value and there is a significant difference among the values received. PCM’s staff appraisers will attempt to resolve such difference. In circumstances where the appraisers are not able to generate adequate data to support a value conclusion, the staff appraisers will order an additional appraisal to resolve the property’s value.

Mortgage Servicing Rights

MSRs are categorized as “Level 3” financial statement items. The Company uses a discounted cash flow approach to estimate the fair value of MSRs. The key assumptions used in the estimation of the fair value of MSRs include prepayment and default rates of the underlying loans, the applicable discount rate, and cost to service loans. The key assumptions used in the Company’s discounted cash flow model are based on market factors which management believes are consistent with assumptions and data used by market participants valuing similar MSRs. The results of the estimates of fair value of MSRs are reported to the Manager’s valuation committee as part of their review and approval of monthly valuation results.

The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Company’s MSRs are pricing spreads, prepayment speeds (or life) and annual per-loan cost of servicing. Significant changes to any of those inputs in isolation could result in a significant change in the MSR fair value measurement. Changes in these key assumptions are not necessarily directly related.

(1) Pricing spread represents a margin that is applied to a reference interest rate’s forward rate curve to develop periodic discount rates. The Company applies a pricing spread to the United States Dollar LIBOR curve for purposes of discounting cash flows relating to MSRs acquired as proceeds from the sale of mortgage loans.

(2) Annual total prepayment speed is measured using Life Total CPR.

(1) Pricing spread represents a margin that is applied to a reference interest rate’s forward rate curve to develop periodic discount rates. The Company applies a pricing spread to the United States Dollar LIBOR curve for purposes of discounting cash flows relating to MSRs acquired as proceeds from the sale of mortgage loans and purchased MSRs not backed by pools of distressed mortgage loans.

(2) Prepayment speed is measured using Life Total CPR.

The preceding sensitivity analyses are limited in that they were performed as of a particular point in time; only contemplate the movements in the indicated variables; do not incorporate changes in the variables in relation to other variables; are subject to the accuracy of various models and inputs used; and do not take into account other factors that would affect the Company’s overall financial performance in such scenarios, including operational adjustments made by the Manager to account for changing circumstances. For these reasons, the preceding estimates should not be viewed as earnings forecasts.

Securities Sold Under Agreements to Repurchase

Fair value of securities sold under agreements to repurchase is based on the accrued cost of the agreements, which approximates the agreements’ fair values, due to the agreements’ short maturities and variable interest rates.

Note 7—Short-Term Investments

The Company’s short-term investments are comprised of money market accounts deposited with U.S. commercial banks.

Note 8—United States Treasury Security

The Company’s investment in a United States Treasury security of $50.0 million as of December 31, 2011 matured on January 19, 2012 and had a coupon interest rate of 0.00%.

The Company is exposed to price risk arising from changes in market interest rates relative to its mortgage loans acquired for sale and to the commitments it makes to acquire loans from correspondent lenders. The Company is also exposed to such risks when it holds Agency MBS. The Company bears price risk from the time a commitment to purchase a loan is made to a correspondent lender to the time the purchased mortgage loan is sold. During these periods, the Company is exposed to losses if mortgage interest rates rise, because, when interest rates rise, the value of the purchase commitment or mortgage loan acquired for sale declines. Similarly, the Company bears price risk relative to its holdings of Agency MBS during the period it holds such securities.

The Company engages in interest rate risk management activities in an effort to reduce the variability of earnings caused by changes in market interest rates. To manage this price risk resulting from interest rate risk, the Company uses derivative financial instruments acquired with the intention of moderating the risk that changes in market interest rates will result in unfavorable changes in the value of the Company’s interest rate lock commitments, inventory of mortgage loans acquired for sale and Agency MBS. The Company does not use derivative financial instruments for purposes other than in support of its risk management activities.

Note 23—Liability for Representations and Warranties

The Company’s agreements with the Agencies include representations and warranties related to the loans the Company sells to the Agencies. The representations and warranties require adherence to Agency origination and underwriting guidelines, including but not limited to the validity of the lien securing the loan, property eligibility, borrower credit, income and asset requirements, and compliance with applicable federal, state and local law.

In the event of a breach of its representations and warranties, the Company may be required to either repurchase the mortgage loans with the identified defects or indemnify the investor or insurer. In such cases, the Company bears any subsequent credit loss on the mortgage loans. The Company’s representations and warranties are generally not subject to stated limits of exposure. The Company’s credit loss may be reduced by any recourse it has to correspondent lenders that, in turn, had sold such mortgage loans to the Company and breached similar or other representations and warranties. In such event, the Company has the right to seek a recovery of related repurchase losses from that originator.

The Company records a provision for losses relating to such the representations and warranties as part of its loan sale transactions. The method used to estimate the liability for representations and warranties is a function of the representations and warranties given and considers a combination of factors, including, but not limited to, estimated future defaults and loan repurchase rates and the potential severity of loss in the event of defaults and the probability of reimbursement by the correspondent loan seller. The Company establishes a liability at the time loans are sold and continually updates its liability estimate.

Following is a summary of the Company’s liability for representations and warranties included in Accounts payable and accrued liabilities for the periods presented:

	Quarter ended September  30,				Nine months  ended September 30,
	2012		2011		2012		2011
	(in thousands)
Balance, beginning of period	$	1,249	$	11	$	205	$	—

Incurred losses		—		—		—		—
Balance, end of period	$	2,378	$	32	$	2,378	$	32

40

The level of the liability for representations and warranties is difficult to estimate and requires considerable management judgment. The level of mortgage loan repurchase losses is dependent on economic factors, investor demand strategies, and other external conditions that may change over the lives of the underlying loans, However, management believes the amount and range of reasonably possible losses in relation to the recorded liability is not material to the Company’s financial condition or results of operations. The current unpaid principal balance of loans sold by the Company to date represents the maximum exposure to repurchases related to representations and warranties.

Note 24—Commitments and Contingencies

From time to time, the Company may be involved in various proceedings, claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. As of September 30, 2012, the Company was not involved in any such proceedings, claims or legal actions that management believes would have a material adverse effect on the Company.

Note 25—Shareholders’ Equity

On May 11, 2012, the Company issued and sold 10,000,000 common shares in an underwritten public offering and received $193.5 million of proceeds, after the underwriting discount and estimated offering expenses and the reimbursement of certain expenses. On May 17, 2012, the Company issued and sold an additional 287,706 common shares pursuant to the exercise of an option to purchase additional shares by the public offering’s underwriters and received $5.4 million of net proceeds after the underwriting discount and reimbursement of certain expenses. Proceeds from the issuance of these shares were used to fund a portion of the purchase price of portfolios of residential mortgage whole loans, to fund the continued growth of the correspondent lending business, to acquire additional mortgage loans or other investments, including those under existing forward purchase agreements, and for general corporate purposes.

On August 22, 2012, the Company issued and sold 17,250,000 common shares in an underwritten public offering and received $357.2 million of proceeds, after the underwriting discount and estimated offering expenses and the reimbursement of net certain expenses. Proceeds from the issuance of these shares were used to fund a portion of the purchase price of portfolios of residential mortgage whole loans, to fund the continued growth of the correspondent lending business, to acquire additional mortgage loans or other investments, including those under existing forward purchase agreements, and for general corporate purposes.

41

During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, the Company sold common shares under a Controlled Equity Offering Sales Agreement with Cantor Fitzgerald & Co. and under an ATM Equity Offering^SM Sales Agreement with Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated. Pursuant to the Controlled Equity Offering Sales Agreement and the ATM Equity Offering^SM, The Company sold 2,800,710 of its common shares at a weighted average price of $18.58 per share, providing net proceeds to the Company of $51.0 million, net of sales commissions. The sales agents received a total of approximately $999,000, which represents an average commission of approximately 2.0% of the gross sales price.

As more fully described in the Company’s Annual Report, certain of the underwriting costs incurred in the Company’s IPO were paid on PMT’s behalf by PCM and a portion of the underwriting discount was deferred by agreement with the underwriters of the offering. Reimbursement to PCM and payment to the underwriters of the deferred underwriting discount is both contingent on PMT’s performance during any full four calendar quarter period during the 24 full calendar quarters after the date of the completion of its IPO, August 4, 2009. If PMT meets the specified performance levels during any full four calendar quarter period during the 24-quarter period, the Company will reimburse PCM approximately $2.9 million of underwriting costs paid by PCM on the offering date and pay the underwriters approximately $5.9 million in deferred underwriting discount. If this requirement is not satisfied by the end of such 24-quarter period, the Company’s obligation to reimburse PCM and make the conditional payment of the underwriting discount will terminate. Management has concluded that these amounts are likely to be paid during the 24-quarter period and has recognized a liability for reimbursement to PCM and payment of the contingent underwriting discount as a reduction of additional paid-in capital.

Note 29—Income Taxes

The Company has elected to be taxed as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes under Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code. Therefore, PMT generally will not be subject to corporate federal or state income tax to the extent that qualifying distributions are made to shareholders and the Company meets REIT requirements including certain asset, income, distribution and share ownership tests. The Company believes that it has met the distribution requirements, as it has declared dividends sufficient to distribute substantially all of its taxable income. Taxable income will generally differ from net income. The primary difference between net income and the REIT taxable income (before deduction for qualifying distributions) is the income of the taxable REIT subsidiaries (“TRSs”) and the method of determining the income or loss related to valuation of the mortgage loans owned by the qualified REIT subsidiary (“QRS”). Other differences between REIT book income and REIT taxable income are not material.

In general, cash dividends declared by the Company will be considered ordinary income to the shareholders for income tax purposes. Some portion of the dividends may be characterized as capital gain distributions or a return of capital. Most of the 2011 distributions were characterized as ordinary income and approximately 5% was characterized as capital gain.

The Company had elected to treat two of its subsidiaries as TRSs. In the quarter ended September 30, 2012, the Company revoked the election to treat its wholly owned subsidiary that is the sole general partner of its Operating Partnership (the “GP”) as a TRS. Only one subsidiary, PennyMac Corp. (“PMC”), is now treated as a TRS.

Income from a TRS is only included as a component of REIT taxable income to the extent that the TRS makes dividend distributions of income to the REIT. No dividend distributions have been made to date from PMC to the Company.

A TRS is subject to corporate federal and state income tax. Accordingly, a provision for income taxes for PMC and, for the period for which TRS treatment had been elected, the sole general partner of the Company’s operating partnership is included in the consolidated statements of income.

The Company files U.S. federal and state income tax returns for both the REIT and TRSs. These returns for 2009 and forward are subject to examination by the respective tax authorities. No returns are currently under examination.

The following table details the Company’s provision for income taxes which relates primarily to the TRSs, for the periods presented:

At September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the Company had no unrecognized tax benefits and does not anticipate any increase in unrecognized tax benefits. Should the accrual of any interest or penalties relative to unrecognized tax benefits be necessary, it is the Company’s policy to record such accruals in the Company’s income tax accounts. No such accruals existed at September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011.

Note 30—Segments and Related Information

The Company has two business segments: investment activities and correspondent lending.

The investment activities segment represents the Company’s investments in distressed mortgage loans, REO, MBS and MSRs. Management seeks to maximize the value of the mortgage loans acquired by the Company through proprietary loan modification programs, special servicing and other initiatives focused on keeping borrowers in their homes. Where this is not possible, such as in the case of many nonperforming mortgage loans, the Company seeks to effect property resolution in a timely, orderly and economically efficient manner. The Company also invests in MSRs, MBS and other mortgage-related real estate and financial assets.

The correspondent lending segment represents the Company’s operations aimed at serving as an intermediary between mortgage originators, particularly mortgage lenders, and the capital markets by purchasing, pooling and reselling the loans either directly or in the form of MBS.

Through the third quarter of 2011, the Company’s activities were almost exclusively within the investment activities segment. Financial highlights by operating segment for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2012 are as follows:

Note 32—Regulatory Net Worth Requirement

PMC, an indirect subsidiary of the Company, is a seller- servicer for Fannie Mae and FHLMC. To retain its status as an approved seller-servicer, PMC is required to meet Fannie Mae’s capital standards, which require PMC to maintain a minimum net worth of $2.5 million. Management believes PMC complies with Fannie Mae’s net worth requirement as of September 30, 2012.

Note 33—Subsequent Events

Management has evaluated all events or transactions through the date the Company issued these financial statements. During this period:

• On October 15, 2012, the Company entered into an amendment to its master repurchase agreement, dated May 24, 2012, by and among PMC, PLS and Citibank, N.A., pursuant to which the Company, through PMC, may sell, and later repurchase, newly funded mortgage loans. Under the terms of the amendment, the maximum aggregate purchase price provided for in the repurchase agreement was increased from $200 million to $400 million, $350 million of which is committed.

• On November 5, 2012, PCM committed to acquire on the Company’s behalf mortgage loans with purchase prices totaling approximately $111.5 million. The pending transaction is subject to continuing due diligence and customary closing conditions. There can be no assurance that the committed amounts will ultimately be acquired or that the transactions will be completed at all.

• On November 7, 2012, the Company’s board of trustees declared a cash dividend of $0.57 per share payable on November 30, 2012 to holders of record of the Company’s common shares as of November 19, 2012.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

We are a specialty finance company that invests primarily in residential mortgage loans and mortgage-related assets. Our objective is to provide attractive risk-adjusted returns to our investors over the long-term, principally through dividends and secondarily through capital appreciation. We intend to achieve this objective largely by investing in distressed mortgage assets and acquiring, pooling and selling newly originated prime credit quality residential mortgage loans (“correspondent lending”).

We invest in distressed mortgage loans through direct acquisitions of mortgage loan portfolios from institutions such as banks and mortgage companies. A substantial portion of the nonperforming loans we have purchased has been acquired from or through one or more subsidiaries of Citigroup, Inc.

We seek to maximize the value of the distressed mortgage loans that we acquire using means that are appropriate for the particular loan, including both proprietary and nonproprietary loan modification programs (such as the U.S. Departments of the Treasury and Housing and Urban Development’s Home Affordable Modification Program (“HAMP”)) special servicing and other initiatives focused on avoiding foreclosure, when possible. When we are unable to effect a cure for a mortgage delinquency, our objective is to effect timely acquisition and/or liquidation of the property securing the loan through the use, in part, of short sales and deed-in-lieu of foreclosure programs. During the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2012, we purchased $150.8 million and $411.4 million, respectively, of distressed mortgage loans. During the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2012, we received proceeds from liquidation, payoffs and sales from our portfolio of distressed mortgage loans and REO totaling $82.8 million and $256.7 million, respectively.

Changes in the mortgage market have significantly reduced the outlets for sales of newly originated mortgage loans by mortgage lenders who have traditionally sold their loans to larger mortgage companies and banks who, in turn, sold those loans to Agencies and other investors or into securitizations. We believe that these changes are due in part to banks’ anticipation of regulatory changes to loan and securitization-related capital requirements, along with a focus on retail lending; and that the changes provide us with the opportunity to act as a link between loan originators and the Agency and securitization markets.

During the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2012, we purchased loans with fair values totaling $6.6 billion and $12.0 billion, respectively, in furtherance of our correspondent lending business. To the extent that we purchase loans that are insured by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development’s Federal Housing Administration (“FHA”) insured or guaranteed by the Veterans Administration, we and PLS have agreed that PLS will fulfill and purchase such loans, as PLS is a GNMA approved issuer and servicer. This arrangement has enabled us to compete with other correspondent lenders that purchase both government and conventional loans. We receive a sourcing fee from PLS of three basis points on the unpaid principal balance of each loan that we sell to PLS under such arrangement, and earn interest income on the loan for the time period we hold the loan prior to the sale to PLS. We held an inventory of mortgage loans acquired for sale totaling $847.6 million at September 30, 2012, including mortgage loans pending sale to PLS totaling $194.1 million. We received sourcing fees totaling $747 thousand and $1.4 million relating to $2.5 billion and $4.8 billion of loans we sold to PLS for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2012. We supplement these activities through participation in other mortgage-related activities, which are in various states of analysis, planning or implementation including:

• Acquisition of REIT-eligible MBS. We purchased zero and $112.2 million of MBS during the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2012, respectively. During the quarter ended September 30, 2012, we sold all of our holdings of MBS.

• Acquisition of MSRs from liquidating and other institutions. We believe that current market conditions may have adversely affected the financial condition and operations of certain owners of mortgage assets. Further, regulatory and capital issues may have contributed to their decision to reduce their portfolio of MSRs. We believe that MSR investments may allow us to earn attractive current returns and to leverage the loan servicing capabilities and efficiencies of PLS to improve the assets’ value. We would also seek to leverage the loan origination capabilities of PLS provided we are able to structure

48

an arrangement, including through the Federal government’s Home Affordable Refinance Program (“HARP 2.0”), whereby we could recapture some or all of the new MSRs created upon PLS’s refinance of mortgage loans relating to the acquired MSRs.

We also intend to continue to retain the MSRs that we receive as a portion of the proceeds from our sale or securitization of mortgage loans through our correspondent lending operation. We received MSRs as proceeds on sale of mortgage loans with fair values totaling $36.8 million and $66.6 million during the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2012 and held MSRs with carrying values of $65.2 million as of September 30, 2012.

• Providing inventory financing of mortgage loans for mortgage lenders. We believe this activity may result in attractive investment assets for us and supplement and make our correspondent lending business more attractive to lenders from which we acquire newly originated loans. During the quarter ended September 30, 2012, we obtained a re-warehouse facility with a maximum lending commitment of $50 million to facilitate the financing of this activity. The re-warehouse facility is committed to September 27, 2013.

• To the extent that we transfer correspondent lending loans into private label securitizations in the future, we may retain a portion of the securities created in the securitization transaction.

We are externally managed by PCM, an investment adviser that specializes in, and focuses on, residential mortgage loans. Most of our mortgage loan portfolio is serviced by PLS, an affiliate of PCM.

We conduct substantially all of our operations, and make substantially all of our investments, through our Operating Partnership and its subsidiaries. We are the sole limited partner and one of our subsidiaries is the sole general partner of our Operating Partnership.

We believe that we qualify to be taxed as a REIT. We believe that we will not be subject to federal income tax on that portion of our income that is distributed to shareholders as long as we meet certain asset, income and share ownership tests. If we fail to qualify as a REIT, and do not qualify for certain statutory relief provisions, our profits will be subject to income taxes and we may be precluded from qualifying as a REIT for the four tax years following the year we lose our REIT qualification. A portion of our activities, including our correspondent lending business, is conducted in a taxable REIT subsidiary (“TRS”), which is subject to corporate federal and state income taxes. Accordingly, we have made a provision for income taxes with respect to the operations of our TRS. In the quarter ended September 30, 2012, we revoked the election to treat as a TRS our wholly-owned subsidiary that is the sole general partner of our operating partnership. A provision for income taxes has been made for the period for which TRS treatment had been elected for this subsidiary. We expect that the effective rate for the provision for income taxes may be volatile in future periods. Our goal is to manage the business to take full advantage of the tax benefits afforded to us as a REIT.

Observations on Current Market Opportunities

The U.S. economy continues its pattern of modest growth as reflected in recent economic data. During the third quarter of 2012, real U.S. gross domestic product expanded at an annual rate of 2.0% compared to a revised 1.3% annual rate for both the second quarter of 2012 and the third quarter of 2011. Modest economic growth and pressure on state and federal government spending continued to affect unemployment rates during 2012. The national unemployment rate was 7.8% at September 30, 2012, the first time the rate was below 8% since January 2009 and compares to a revised seasonally adjusted rate of 9.0% at September 30, 2011 and 8.5% at December 31, 2011. Declining unemployment is partially reflective of a declining workforce labor participation rate. Delinquency rates on single family residential mortgage loans linger at historically high rates. During the second quarter of 2012, delinquency rates were 10.6%, a slight reduction from the cyclical high of 11.2% during the first quarter of 2010.

49

Residential real estate activity appears to be modestly improving. The seasonally adjusted annual rate of existing home sales for September 2012 was 11.0% higher than for September 2011 and the national median existing home price for all housing types was $183,900, an 11.3% increase from September 2011. On a national level, foreclosure filings during the third quarter of 2012 decreased 5% as compared to the second quarter of 2012 and 13% as compared to the third quarter of 2011, representing the ninth consecutive quarter with an annual decrease in foreclosure activity. A previously expected increase in foreclosure activity at the national level as lenders resolve their operational issues relating to the foreclosure of delinquent loans has not yet materialized, however it is anticipated that foreclosure activity within select markets may increase during the remainder of 2012 and beyond.

Thirty-year fixed rate mortgage interest rates ranged from a high of 3.66% to a low of 3.40% during the third quarter of 2012 with the low of 3.40% representing an all-time record low for the thirty-year fixed rate mortgage (Source: the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation’s Weekly Primary Mortgage Market Survey). During the first nine months of 2012 mortgage interest rates have ranged from a high of 4.08% to the all-time record low of 3.40%. Mortgage interest rates during the third quarter were relatively unchanged until the Federal Reserve began its purchases of mortgage securities pursuant to a third round of quantitative easing. During the first nine months of 2011, mortgage interest rates ranged from a high of 5.05% to a low of 4.01%.

The Manager continues to see substantial volumes of distressed residential mortgage loan sales (sales of loan pools that consist of either nonperforming loans, troubled but performing loans or a combination thereof) offered for sale by a limited number of sellers. During the third quarter of 2012, our Manager reviewed 23 mortgage loan pools with unpaid principal balances totaling approximately $3.8 billion. This compares to our Manager’s review of 20 mortgage loan pools with unpaid principal balances totaling approximately $3.6 billion during the third quarter of 2011. We acquired distressed mortgage loans with fair values totaling $150.5 million and $288.9 million during the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2012, respectively.

We believe that the shifting investment and operational priorities of banks and other traditional mortgage lenders have created additional opportunities for our business. Under current market conditions, these opportunities include the purchase from mortgage lenders of newly originated mortgage loans that are eligible for sale to an Agency. These opportunities also include the purchase of newly originated mortgage loans that can be resold in the non-Agency whole loan market or securitized in the private label market as well as providing inventory financing to originators of such loans. During the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2012, we acquired approximately $6.6 billion and $12.0 billion, respectively, in fair value of newly originated mortgage loans and received proceeds of approximately $6.3 billion and $11.4 billion, respectively, on the sale of loans.

(1) Before the third quarter of 2011, the Company’s activities were almost exclusively within the investment activities segment.

During the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2012, we recorded net income of $40.4 million and $89.0 million, or $0.81 and $2.29 per diluted share, respectively. Our net income for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2012 reflects net gains on our investments in financial instruments totaling $75.9 million and $146.8 million (comprised of net gain on investments and net gain on mortgage loans acquired for sale), including $22.3 million and $53.0 million of valuation gains on MBS and mortgage loans excluding mortgage loans acquired for sale, supplemented by $19.7 million and $52.2 million of interest income, respectively. During the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2012, we purchased $6.6 billion and $12.0

51

billion, respectively, in fair value of newly originated mortgage loans. We recognized gains on such loans totaling approximately $49.8 million and $81.2 million, respectively. At September 30, 2012, we held mortgage loans acquired for sale with fair values totaling $847.6 million, including $194.1 million pending sale to PLS. Growth in our earnings reflect growth in the Company’s assets from $1.2 billion at September 30, 2011 to $2.3 billion at September 30, 2012. We achieved this growth in assets through a combination of issuance of additional common shares of beneficial interest (common shares) and by leveraging such issuances with additional borrowing capacity.

During the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2011, we recorded net income of $20.5 million and $44.8 million, or $0.73 and $1.72 per diluted share, respectively. Our net income for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2011 reflected net gains on our investments in financial instruments totaling $31.5 million and $63.5 million (comprised of net gain on investments and net gain on mortgage loans acquired for sale), including $23.0 million and $48.8 million of valuation gains on MBS and mortgage loans excluding mortgage loans acquired for sale, supplemented by $9.8 million and $24.0 million of interest income, respectively. During the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2011, we purchased $220.0 million and $294.4 million, respectively, in fair value of newly originated mortgage loans. We recognized gains on such loans totaling approximately $84,000 and $207,000, respectively. At September 30, 2011, we held mortgage loans acquired for sale with fair values totaling $40.9 million.

Net Investment Income

During the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2012, we recorded net investment income of $99.2 million and $210.3 million, respectively, comprised primarily of net gains on investments in financial instruments of $75.9 million and $146.8 million supplemented by $19.7 million and $52.2 million of interest income and $1.3 million and $7.6 million from results of REO, partially offset by negative net servicing fees of $511,000 and $1.2 million, respectively. This compares to net investment income of $42.0 million and $89.5 million recognized during the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2011, comprised primarily of $31.5 million and $63.5 million of net gains on investments in financial instruments, supplemented by $9.8 million and $24.0 million of interest income, $352,000 and $1.5 million of gains from results of REO and net servicing fees of $14,000 and $17,000, respectively.

The growth in net investment income reflects the growth in the distressed loan portfolio, REOs and correspondent lending activities.

Net Gain (Loss) on Investments

During the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2012, we recognized net gains on financial instruments (excluding mortgage loans acquired for sale) totaling $26.1 million and $65.5 million, respectively. This compares to $31.5 million and $63.5 million for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2011. The increase for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2012 as compared to the same prior year periods is due primarily to growth in our portfolio of investments in financial instruments. The average portfolio balance of mortgage loans at fair value increased $148.2 million or 20%, and $215.8 million or 37%, respectively, during the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2012 as compared to the same prior year periods.

During the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2012, we recognized net valuation gains (losses) and gain on sale of our entire portfolio of MBS totaling $(451,000) and $612,000, respectively, compared to net

56

valuation losses of $791,000 and $2.1 million, respectively, during the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2011. The current period gains primarily reflect the liquidation of our investments in MBS.

The valuation losses we recognized during the quarter ended September 30, 2012 include losses on sale of our Agency MBS of $1.1 million and losses on sale of our non-Agency MBS of $29,000. The valuation losses we recorded during the same periods in 2011 reflected, in part, marketplace concerns regarding the potentially growing supply of MBS similar to those we held as a result of sales by the Federal Reserve Bank and other entities, marketplace discounting of distressed MBS resulting from expectations that involuntary prepayments of mortgages underlying the securities may remain slow or slow further due to regulatory actions relating to servicers’ foreclosure activities, and marketplace concern regarding servicers’ behavior with respect to advancing and modification practices.

Net gains on mortgage loans at fair value and mortgage loans under forward purchase agreements at fair value are summarized below for the periods presented:

Sales		—			—		(121	)		233
	$	26,512		$	32,311	$	64,929		$	65,594

The net gains on mortgage loans arising from valuation changes were due primarily to the following: changes in the value of loans as the loans moved through the resolution process and as actual home prices improved; reinstatement of nonperforming loans; improved expectation of the future speed of resolution and of the expected proportion of reinstatement for certain loan pools; and increased expectation regarding the collectability of mortgage insurance payments on certain loan pools.

During the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, we recognized gains on mortgage loan payoffs as summarized below:

	Quarter ended September 30,				Nine months ended September 30,
	2012		2011		2012		2011
	(in thousands)

Gain recognized at payoff	$	3,649	$	8,544	$	14,986	$	14,411

The decrease in gains recognized at payoff for the quarter ended September 30, 2012 compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2011 was due to the lower level of payoff activity for the quarter ended September 30, 2012 compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2011. Payoff gains for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2011 reflect the realization of gains on payoffs in 2011 of then-recently acquired pools of loans which did not recur during 2012, as well as to decreased purchases of distressed mortgage loans during 2012 as compared to 2011, resulting in decreased gains on payoffs during the third quarter of 2012.

In the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2012, we earned interest income of $19.7 million and $52.2 million, respectively, compared to $9.8 million and $24.0 million for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2011.

We earned interest income of $502,000 and $2.1 million, respectively, on our portfolio of MBS during the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2012. In the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2011, we earned interest income of $651,000 and $2.7 million, respectively, on our portfolio of MBS. The quarterly reduction in interest income of $149,000 reflects the effects of a $3.2 million or 4% decrease in the average balance of our investment in MBS, along with a reduction in the yield we recognized on such assets from 3.35% to 2.69%. This reduction in yield was primarily due to slower repayments of the loans underlying the MBS along with reduced accruals of unearned discounts on such securities due to our assessment of the portion of the securities that would have been ultimately repaid. Our fair value estimates reflected our assessment of the amount and timing of future cash flows to be received on these bonds. Interest income on MBS decreased by $632,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2011, also reflecting the reduced accrual of unearned discounts on the securities as well as repayments through the date of sale in excess of the acquisitions of our non-Agency MBS.

In the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2012, we recognized interest income on mortgage loans and mortgage loans under forward purchase agreements at fair value of $19.2 million and $49.9 million, respectively, which compares to $9.2 million and $21.2 million, respectively, in the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2011. The increases in interest income are due primarily to growth in the average balance

59

of our mortgage loan portfolio of $148.2 million and $215.8 million, or 20% and 37% for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2012 when compared to the same periods in 2011. During the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2012, we recognized annualized interest of 5.71% and 6.19%, respectively, on our portfolio of mortgage loans (excluding mortgage loans acquired for sale at fair value) as measured by the portfolio’s average fair value. This compares to 4.60% and 4.65% for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2011. The increases in yield during the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2012 as compared to the same periods in 2011 are due primarily to a higher proportion of our investment portfolio being comprised of performing loans along with interest income we recognize on modifications when we capture interest income through the capitalization of delinquent interest as part of the modification agreement. At September 30, 2012, our investment in performing mortgage loans had a weighted average coupon of 4.17%; at September 30, 2011, our investment in performing mortgage loans had a weighted average coupon of 4.99%.

At September 30, 2012, approximately 64% of the fair value of our portfolio of mortgage loans was nonperforming, which compares to 78% at September 30, 2011. We do not accrue interest on nonperforming loans and generally do not recognize revenues during the period we hold REO. We calculate the yield on our mortgage loan portfolio based on the portfolio’s average fair value, which most closely reflects our investment in the mortgage loans. Accordingly, the yield we realize is substantially higher than would be recorded based on the loans’ unpaid balances as we purchase our mortgage loans at substantial discounts to their unpaid principal balances.

The revenue benefits of nonperforming loans and REO generally take longer to realize than those of performing loans due to the time required to work with borrowers to resolve payment issues through our modification programs and to acquire and liquidate the property securing the mortgage loans. The value and returns we realize from these assets are determined by our ability to cure the borrowers’ defaults, or when curing of borrower defaults is not a viable solution, by our ability to effectively manage the liquidation process. As a participant in HAMP, we are required to comply with the process specified by the HAMP program before liquidating a loan, and this may extend the liquidation process. At September 30, 2012, we held $701.9 million in fair value of nonperforming loans and $86.2 million in carrying value of REO.

Net Gain on Mortgage Loans Acquired for Sale

During the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2012, we recorded a net gain of $49.8 million and $81.2 million, respectively, on mortgage loans acquired for sale which included approximately $36.8 million and $66.7 million, respectively, in fair values of MSRs received as part of the proceeds from our correspondent lending loan sales. During the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2011, we recorded a gain of $84,000 and $207,000, respectively, on mortgage loans acquired for sale.

Our gain on mortgage loans acquired for sale includes both cash and non-cash elements. We receive proceeds on sale that include both cash and our estimate of the value of MSRs. MSRs represent the value of a contract that obligates us to service the mortgage loans we sell on behalf of the purchaser of the loan in exchange for servicing fees and the right to collect certain ancillary income from the borrower. We recognize MSRs at our estimate of the fair value of the contract to service the loans. As discussed in Net Loan Servicing Fees, below, how much of the MSR we realize in cash relies how our initial estimates of the future cash flows accruing to the MSRs are realized. As economic fundamentals influencing the loans we sell with servicing rights retained change, our estimate of the fair value of MSR will also change. As a result, we will record changes in fair value as a component of Net Loan Servicing Fees for the MSRs we carry at fair value and we may recognize changes in fair value relating to our MSRs carried at the lower of amortized cost or fair value depending on the relationship of the asset’s fair value to its amortized cost at the measurement date.

Following are the key inputs used in determining the fair value of MSRs at the time of initial recognition:

(1) Pricing spread represents a margin that is applied to a reference interest rate’s forward rate curve to develop periodic discount rates. The Company applies a pricing spread to the United States Dollar LIBOR curve for purposes of discounting cash flows relating to MSRs acquired as proceeds from the sale of mortgage loans.

(2) Annual total prepayment speed is measured using Life Total CPR.

We also provide for our estimate of the future losses that we may be required to incur as a result of our breach of representations and warranties provided to the purchasers of the loans we sold. We evaluate the adequacy of our estimate based on our loss experience and our assessment of future losses to be incurred relating to loans we have previously sold and which remain outstanding at the balance sheet date. As our portfolio of loans sold subject to representations and warranties grows and as economic fundamentals change, such adjustments can be material. However, we believe our current estimates represent the future losses to be incurred on our servicing portfolio of mortgage loans sold subject to representations and warranties.

Our hedging activities relating to our correspondent lending activities primarily involve forward sales of our inventory and commitments to purchase mortgage loans as well as purchases of options to sell and options to purchase MBS. We hedged the interest rate fluctuations on indebtedness incurred to acquire our investment in Agency MBS using interest rate swaption agreements. Following is a summary of the notional activity in our hedging derivatives for the periods presented:

Results of Real Estate Acquired in Settlement of Loans

Results of REO includes the gains or losses we record upon sale of the properties as well as valuation adjustments we record during the period we hold those properties. During the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2012, we recorded net gains of $1.3 million and $7.6 million, respectively, in results of Real estate acquired in settlement of loans as compared to net gains totaling $352,000 and $1.5 million, respectively, for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2011.

Results of REO are summarized below:

The increase in gain between the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2012 and the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2011 is primarily due to the increased level of REO activity during the current year periods as compared to the prior year periods. Our investment in REO has been decreasing from its high of approximately $103.5 million at December 31, 2012 as we liquidate the distressed assets we purchased throughout 2010 and 2011 and have not purchased distressed assets at the rate we purchased such assets during the prior year. We recorded a 17% decrease in the carrying value of REO, from approximately $103.5 million to approximately $86.2 million, from December 31, 2011 to September 30, 2012.

Net Loan Servicing Fees

When we sell mortgage loans, we generally enter into a contract to service the mortgage loans and recognize the value of such contracts as MSRs. Under these contracts, we perform loan servicing functions in exchange for fees and the right to other compensation. The servicing functions typically performed include, among other responsibilities, collecting and remitting loan payments; responding to borrower inquiries; accounting for principal and interest, holding custodial (impound) funds for payment of property taxes and insurance premiums; counseling delinquent mortgagors; and supervising foreclosures and property dispositions. Through our Operating Partnership, we also have a loan servicing agreement with PLS by which PLS subcontracts to perform the servicing obligations on our behalf. Under the servicing agreement, PLS is entitled to base subservicing fees, which range from 4 to 20 basis points per year of the unpaid principal balance of such loans, and other customary market-based fees and charges. Such fees are included in the Loan servicing expenses on our Consolidated Statements of Income.

Net loan servicing fees are summarized below:

	Quarter ended September 30,						Nine months ended September 30,
	2012			2011			2012			2011

Net loan servicing fees	$	(511	)	$	14		$	(1,169	)	$	17

(1) Includes contractually specified servicing fees.

The value of MSRs is derived from the net positive cash flows associated with the servicing contracts. The Company receives a servicing fee ranging generally from 0.250% to 0.375% annually on the remaining outstanding principal balances of the loans.

63

Amortization, impairment and changes in fair value of MSRs have a significant effect on net loan servicing fees. The effect of MSRs on net loan servicing fees is driven primarily by our monthly re-estimation of the fair value of MSRs. As our investment in MSRs grows, we expect that the effect of amortization, impairment and changes in fair value will have an increasing influence on our net income. The precise fair value of MSRs cannot be readily determined because MSRs are not actively traded in standalone markets. Considerable judgment is required to estimate the fair values of these assets and the exercise of such judgment can significantly affect our earnings.

Our MSR valuation process combines the use of a discounted cash flow model and analysis of current market data to arrive at an estimate of fair value at each balance sheet date. The cash flow and prepayment assumptions used in the Manager’s discounted cash flow model are based on market factors and include the historical performance of its MSRs, which the Manager believes are consistent with assumptions and data used by market participants valuing similar MSRs. The key assumptions used in the valuation of MSRs include mortgage prepayment speeds and discount rates. These variables can, and generally do, change from period to period as market conditions change. Therefore our estimate of the fair value of MSRs changes from period to period. PCM’s Valuation Committee reviews and approves the fair value estimates of our MSRs.

We account for MSRs at either our estimate of the asset’s fair value with changes in fair value recorded in current period earnings or using the amortization method carried at the lower of estimated amortized cost or fair value based on whether we view the underlying mortgages as being sensitive to prepayments resulting from changing market interest rates. We have identified an initial mortgage interest rate of 4.5% as the threshold for whether such mortgage loans are sensitive to changes in interest rates:

• Our risk management efforts in connection with MSRs relating to mortgage loans with initial interest rates of more than 4.5% are aimed at moderating the effects of changes in interest rates on the assets’ values.

• For MSRs relating to mortgage loans with initial interest rates of less than or equal to 4.5% that were acquired as a result of the our correspondent lending operations, we have concluded that such assets present different risks than MSRs relating to mortgage loans with initial interest rates of more than 4.5% and therefore require a different risk management approach. Our risk management efforts relating to these assets are aimed at moderating the effects of non-interest rate risks on fair value, such as the effect of changes in home prices on the assets’ values. We have identified these assets for accounting using the amortization method.

Our MSRs are summarized by the basis on which we account for the assets below as of the dates presented:

Significant changes to any of those inputs in isolation could result in a significant change in the MSR fair value measurement. Changes in these key assumptions are not necessarily directly related. The preceding sensitivity analyses are limited in that they were performed as of a particular point in time; only contemplate the movements in the indicated variables; do not incorporate changes in the variables in relation to other variables; are subject to the accuracy of various models and inputs used; and do not take into account other factors that would affect our overall financial performance in such scenarios, including operational adjustments made by the Manager to account for changing circumstances. For these reasons, the preceding estimates should not be viewed as earnings forecasts.

Expenses

Our expenses are summarized below for the periods presented:

	$	40,227	$	17,107	$	88,732	$	38,325

Increased expenses during the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2012 compared to the same periods in 2011 were primarily a result of the growth in the Company’s investment portfolio, the use of borrowings to finance that growth and the substantial growth in our correspondent lending activities.

Loan fulfillment fees payable to an affiliate represent fees we pay to PLS for the services it performs on our behalf in connection with our acquisition, packaging and sale of mortgage loans. The fee is calculated as a percentage of the unpaid principal balance of the mortgage loans at sale to nonaffiliates where we are approved or licensed to sell to such nonaffiliates. The increase of $17.0 million and $30.8 million, respectively, in the fees during the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2012 compared to the same periods in 2011 is due to the substantial growth in our correspondent lending activities. During the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2012, we sold mortgage loans to nonaffiliates with fair values totaling approximately $3.6 billion and $6.3 billion, respectively, compared to $53.2 million and $72.8 million, respectively, during the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2011.

The effects of changes in the composition of our borrowings on our interest expense during the periods presented are summarized below:

During the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2012, we incurred interest expense totaling $8.3 million and $21.7 million, respectively, as compared to $5.2 million and $10.5 million during the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2011. Our interest cost was 3.62 and 3.52%, respectively, for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2012 as compared to 4.08% and 3.78%, respectively, for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2011. The increase in interest expense reflects our increased use of borrowings in support of growth of our balance sheet throughout 2011 and 2012, partially offset by declining interest rates from 2011 to 2012 and a shift in borrowings toward financing more liquid assets which are financeable with lower borrowing rates.

Loan servicing expenses also grew substantially from $4.8 million and $10.6 million, respectively, in the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2011 to $5.2 million and $15.2 million, respectively, in the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2012 as our average investment in mortgage loans increased by 20% and 37%, respectively, from the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2011 to the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2012.

Loan servicing expenses are summarized below for the periods presented:

	Quarter ended September  30,				Nine months  ended September 30,
	2012		2011		2012		2011
	(in thousands)

Collection expenses		295		361		1,267		628
	$	5,208	$	4,834	$	15,180	$	10,620

Compensation expense increased due to the effect on 2012 stock-based compensation expense of restricted share units granted during the second quarter of 2012 to our officers and trustees as well as certain employees of PCM and its affiliates. Professional services expense decreased during the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2012 as compared to the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2011 as the level of mortgage investment acquisition activity involving assets and transactions which require support in the form of due diligence and legal consultations decreased in 2012 as compared to 2011.

Income Taxes

We had elected to treat two of our subsidiaries as TRSs. In the quarter ended September 30, 2012, we revoked the election to treat our wholly owned subsidiary that is the sole general partner of our operating partnership as a TRS. As a result, beginning September 1, 2012, one subsidiary, PMC, is treated as a TRS.

A TRS is subject to corporate federal and state income tax. Income from a TRS is only included as a component of REIT taxable income to the extent that the TRS makes dividend distributions of income to the REIT. No such dividend distributions have been made to date. Accordingly, a provision for income taxes for PMC and, for the period for which TRS treatment had been elected, the sole general partner of our operating partnership is included in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Income.

In general, cash dividends declared by us will be considered ordinary income to shareholders for income tax purposes. Some portion of the dividends may be characterized as capital gain distributions or a return of capital. Most of the 2011 distributions were characterized as ordinary income and approximately 5% was characterized as capital gain.

Total assets increased by approximately $942.7 million or 68% during the period from December 31, 2011 through September 30, 2012. During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, we increased our capitalization through issuance of additional common shares for net proceeds of $606.8 million and an increase in our borrowings outstanding by $229.0 million. We made investments totaling $590.0 million and received proceeds from sales and repayments of those assets as well as from the maturity of a United States Treasury security, our portfolio of MBS, mortgage loans under forward purchase agreements from sales of REO and a sale of MSRs totaling $496.0 million. We also purchased newly-originated mortgage loans totaling approximately $12.0 billion and received proceeds (including MSRs) from the sale of those loans totaling approximately $11.4 billion in our correspondent lending operations. Our non-correspondent lending acquisitions are summarized below.

Mortgage Loans-Investment Portfolio

The relationship of the fair value of our mortgage loans at fair value (excluding mortgage loans acquired for sale at fair value) to the fair value of the real estate collateral underlying the loans is summarized below:

	September 30, 2012				December 31, 2011
	Fair values
	Loan		Collateral		Loan		Collateral
	(in thousands)
Performing loans	$	388,051	$	583,926	$	209,599	$	306,978
Nonperforming loans		701,915		1,055,736		615,977		905,940
	$	1,089,966	$	1,639,662	$	825,576	$	1,212,918

The collateral values presented above do not represent our assessment of the amount of future cash flows to be realized from the mortgage loans and/or underlying collateral. Future cash flows will be influenced by, among other considerations, our asset disposition strategies with respect to individual loans, the costs and expenses we incur in the disposition process and changes in borrower performance and the underlying collateral values.

70

Collateral values summarized above are estimated and may change over time due to various factors including changes in the real estate market, our level of access to the properties securing the loans or the condition of individual properties. Collateral values noted do not include any costs that would typically be incurred in obtaining the property in settlement of the loan, readying the property for sale or in the sale of a property.

(1) With respect to MBS, key inputs are those used to evaluate broker indications of value.

(2) Prepayment speed is measured using one year Voluntary Conditional Prepayment Rate (“CPR”).

(3) Default speed is measured using one year Constant Default Rate (“CDR”).

(4) The projected future losses on the loans in the collateral groups paying to each bond as a percentage of the current balance of the loans.

(5) Prepayment speed is measured using life voluntary conditional prepayment rate.

(6) For indications of value received, PCM’s FAV Group and Capital Markets staff review the price indications provided by non-affiliate brokers for completeness, accuracy and consistency across all similar bonds managed by PCM. Bond-level analytics such as yield, weighted average life and projected prepayment and default speeds of the underlying collateral are computed. The reasonableness of the brokers’ indications of value and of changes in value from period to period is evaluated in light of the analytical review performed and considering market conditions. The review of the Capital Markets and FAV Group is reported to PCM’s valuation committee as part of its review and approval of monthly valuation results. PCM has not adjusted, and does not intend to adjust, its fair value estimates to amounts different than the brokers’ indications of value.

We monitor and value our investments in pools of distressed mortgage loans, either by acquisition or by payment status of the loans. Most of the measures we use to value and monitor the loan portfolio, such as projected prepayment and default speeds and discount rates, are applied or output at the pool level. The characteristics of the individual loans, such as loan size, loan-to-value ratio and current delinquency status, can vary widely within a pool.

The weighted average discount rate used in the valuation of mortgage loans at fair value decreased from 14.8% at December 31, 2011 to 13.5% at September 30, 2012 due to a decrease in certain pools’ discount rates resulting from the acquisition of performing assets with lower yields during the nine months ended September 30, 2012.

The weighted average twelve month projected housing price index (“HPI”) change increased from -0.3% at December 31, 2011 to 0.1% at September 30, 2012 due to recent improvements observed in the residential housing sector increasing the expectation of positive home price appreciation.

The total prepayment speed of our mortgage loans at fair value portfolio decreased from 26.5% at December 31, 2011 to 19.7% at September 30, 2012, primarily due to the portfolio composition changing toward a higher proportion of performing assets which have slower overall prepayments speeds.

We believe that our current fair value estimates are representative of fair value at the reporting date. However, the market for our distressed mortgage assets is illiquid with very few market participants. Furthermore, our business strategy is to enhance value during the period in which the loans are held. Therefore, any resulting appreciation or depreciation in the fair value of the loans is recorded during such holding period and ultimately realized at the end of the holding period.

Mortgage Loans—Correspondent Lending

Following is a summary of our correspondent lending acquisitions for the periods presented:

	Quarter ended September 30,				Nine months ended September 30,
	2012		2011		2012		2011
	(in thousands)
Fair value of correspondent lending loans purchased:
Agency eligible	$	3,855,174	$	63,786	$	6,701,053	$	80,828
Government insured or guaranteed		2,741,204		143,253		5,257,915		194,424
Jumbo		764		13,001		8,710		19,158
	$	6,597,142	$	220,040	$	11,967,678	$	294,410

Our ability to continue the expansion of our correspondent lending business is subject to our ability to obtain additional inventory financing and our ability to fund the portion of the loans not financed, either through cash flows from business activities or the raising of additional equity capital. However, there can be no assurance that we will be successful in increasing our borrowing capacity or in obtaining the additional equity capital necessary or that we will be able to identify additional sources of mortgage loans.

Cash Flows

Our cash flows resulted in a net increase in cash of $53.2 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2012. The positive cash flows arose primarily due to our financing activities producing more cash than our operations or investments required during the period. Cash used by operating activities totaled $662.2 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2012, primarily due to growth in our inventory of mortgage loans acquired for sale. Cash used by operating activities totaling $80.5 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 reflects the effects of growth in our operating balance sheet accounts during that period.

Net cash used by investing activities was $54.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 primarily due to cash used for purchases of $411.4 million of mortgage loans at fair value and $112.2 million of MBS exceeding cash flows from repayments, sales and liquidations of our investments of $496.0 million. Similarly, during the nine months ended September 30, 2011, cash used by investing activities totaled $278.0 million owing to the substantial growth in our investments in distressed mortgage assets during that period.

77

Approximately 64% of our investments, comprised of non-correspondent lending mortgage loans, REO and MSRs, were nonperforming assets as of September 30, 2012. Nonperforming assets include mortgage loans delinquent 90 or more days and REO. Accordingly, we expect that these assets will require a longer period to begin producing cash flow and the timing and amount of cash flows from these assets is less certain than for performing assets. During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, we transferred $89.0 million of mortgage loans and advances to REO and realized cash proceeds from the repayments and sale of MBS, mortgage loans at fair values and REO totaling $189.2 million, $142.4 million and $114.3 million, respectively.

Our investing activities include the purchase of long-lived assets which are not presently cash flowing or are at risk of interruption of cash flows in the near future. Furthermore, much of the investment income we recognize is in the form of valuation adjustments we record recognizing our estimates of the net appreciation in value of the assets as we work with borrowers to either modify their loans or acquire the property securing their loans in settlement thereof. Accordingly, a substantial portion of our revenues is often realized as part of the proceeds of the liquidation of the assets, either through payoff or sale of the mortgage loan or through acquisition and sale of the property securing the loans, many months after we record the revenues.

The following tables illustrate the net gain (loss) in value that we accumulated over the period during which we owned the liquidated assets, as compared to the proceeds actually received and the additional net gain (loss) realized upon liquidation of such assets:

	Quarter ended September 30,

REO		114,278		(9,272	)		16,849		46,410		7,649		8,291
	$	248,181	$	4,877		$	31,834	$	150,724	$	14,861	$	22,702

(1) Represents valuation gains and losses recognized during the period we held the respective asset but excludes the gain or loss recorded upon sale or repayment of the respective asset.

(2) Represents the gain or loss recognized as of the date of sale or repayment of the respective asset.

The amounts included in accumulated gains and gain on liquidation do not include the cost of managing the liquidated assets. Rather, they include the amount of accumulated valuation gains and losses recognized throughout the holding period—which may be substantial depending on the collection status of the loan at acquisition and on our success in working with the borrower to resolve the source of distress in the loan—and in the case of REO, includes direct transaction costs incurred in the sale of the property. Accordingly, the preceding amounts do not represent periodic earnings on a cash basis and the amount of gain will have accumulated over varying periods depending on the liquidation period for individual assets.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $769.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 due to the net proceeds from sale of common shares of $606.8 million as well as increased borrowings used to

78

finance growth in our inventory of mortgage loans acquired for sale, mortgage loans at fair value and our investment in MSRs. As discussed below in Liquidity and Capital Resources, our Manager continues to evaluate and pursue additional sources of financing to provide us with future investing capacity.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our liquidity reflects our ability to meet our current obligations (including the purchase of loans from correspondent lenders, our operating expenses and, when applicable, retirement of, and margin calls relating to, our debt and derivatives positions), make investments as our Manager identifies them and make distributions to our shareholders. We generally need to distribute at least 90% of our taxable income each year (subject to certain adjustments) to our shareholders to qualify as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code. This distribution requirement limits our ability to retain earnings and thereby replenish or increase capital to support our activities.

We expect our primary sources of liquidity to be proceeds from or through earnings on our investments, cash flows from business activities, proceeds from borrowings and/or additional equity offerings. We believe our current liquidity is sufficient to meet our short-term liquidity needs.

Our current leverage strategy is to finance our assets where we believe such borrowing is prudent and appropriate. We have made borrowings in the form of borrowings under forward purchase agreements, sales of assets under agreements to repurchase, and a note payable secured by mortgage loans at fair value. To the extent available to us, we expect in the future to obtain long-term financing for assets with estimated future lives of more than one year; this may include term financing and securitization of nonperforming and/or re-performing mortgage loans.

Until attractive long-term financing is procured, we will continue to finance our assets on a short-term basis through agreements to repurchase and other secured lending and structured finance facilities, pending the ultimate disposition of the assets, whether through sale, securitization or liquidation. Because our current debt facilities consist solely of short-term borrowings, we expect to renew these facilities in advance of maturity in order to ensure our ongoing liquidity and access to capital or otherwise allow ourselves sufficient time to replace any necessary financing.

On May 11, 2012, we issued and sold 10,000,000 common shares in an underwritten public offering and received $193.5 million of net proceeds, after the underwriting discount and estimated offering expenses and the reimbursement of certain expenses. On May 17, 2012, we issued and sold an additional 287,706 common shares pursuant to the exercise of an option to purchase additional shares by the public offering’s underwriters and received $5.4 million of proceeds after the underwriting discount and reimbursement of certain expenses. We used proceeds from the issuance of these shares to fund a portion of the purchase price of portfolios of residential mortgage whole loans, to fund the continued growth of our correspondent lending business, to acquire additional mortgage loans or other investments, including those under existing forward purchase agreements, and for general corporate purposes.

On August 22, 2012, the Company issued and sold 17,250,000 common shares in an underwritten public offering and received $357.2 million of proceeds, after the underwriting discount and estimated offering expenses and the reimbursement of net certain expenses. Proceeds from the issuance of these shares were used to fund a portion of the purchase price of portfolios of residential mortgage whole loans, to fund the continued growth of the correspondent lending business, to acquire additional mortgage loans or other investments, including those under existing forward purchase agreements, and for general corporate purposes.

79

During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, the Company sold common shares under a Controlled Equity Offering Sales Agreement with Cantor Fitzgerald & Co. and under an ATM Equity Offering^SM Sales Agreement with Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated. Pursuant to the Controlled Equity Offering Sales Agreement and the ATM Equity Offering^sm, The Company sold 2,800,710 of its common shares at a weighted average price of $18.58 per share, providing net proceeds to the Company of $51.0 million, net of sales commissions. The sales agents received a total of approximately $999,000, which represents an average commission of approximately 2.0% of the gross sales price.

We use debt financing, primarily through the use of repurchase agreements and forward purchase agreements, as a means of extending our balance sheet capacity. Our repurchase agreements represent the sales of assets together with agreements for us to buy back the assets at a later date. During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, the average balance outstanding under agreements to repurchase MBS and mortgage loans and REO financed under agreements to repurchase totaled $727.3 million, and the maximum daily amount outstanding under such agreements totaled $1.1 billion. The difference between the maximum and average daily amounts outstanding was due to the continuing growth of our investments in these assets. The balance of borrowings under these facilities was $1.0 billion at September 30, 2012.

Forward purchase agreements represent agreements between us and a seller, pursuant to which we agree to purchase from the seller certain nonperforming residential mortgage loans and residential real property acquired in settlement of loans. We record the transactions as a purchase of loans with a corresponding liability.

As of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, we financed our investments in MBS, mortgage loans at fair value and REO, and our inventory of mortgage loans acquired for sale at fair value, under agreements to repurchase and forward purchase agreements as follows:

	September 30, 2012			December 31, 2011
	(in thousands)
Assets financed	$	1,857,681		$	1,222,845
Total assets in classes of assets financed	$	2,023,721		$	1,283,954
Borrowings	$	1,041,371		$	812,357
Percentage of invested assets pledged		92	%		95	%
Advance rate against pledged assets		56	%		66	%

The decrease in the percentage of assets financed and advance rate against pledged assets at September 30, 2012 was primarily due to the use of proceeds from our sales of equity to pay down our borrowings pending investment of those proceeds.

As discussed above, all of our borrowings have short-term maturities:

• The transactions relating to mortgage loans under agreements to repurchase mature between December 28, 2012 and October 29, 2013 and provide for sale to major financial institution counterparties based on the estimated fair value of the mortgage loans sold. The agreements provide for terms of approximately one year.

• The transactions relating to REO are secured financings that mature on June 5, 2013 and provide for sale to a major financial institution counterparty at advance rates based on the estimated fair value of the REO.

80

Our debt financing agreements require us and certain of our subsidiaries to comply with various financial covenants. These financial covenants currently include the following:

• profitability at each of the Company and two of our subsidiaries, the Operating Partnership and PennyMac Mortgage Investment Trust Holdings I, LLC (“PMITH”), for at least one (1) of the previous two consecutive fiscal quarters, as of the end of each fiscal quarter, and at our subsidiary, PMC, for the prior three (3) calendar quarters;

• a minimum of $20 million in unrestricted cash and cash equivalents among the Company and/or our subsidiaries; a minimum of $12.5 million in unrestricted cash and cash equivalents at the Operating Partnership; a minimum of $7.75 million in unrestricted cash and cash equivalents between PMC and PMITH; and a minimum of $7.5 million in unrestricted cash and cash equivalents at PMC;

• a minimum tangible net worth for the Company of $400 million, plus 75% of the total net proceeds received by it in connection with equity issuances after August 18, 2011; a minimum tangible net worth for the Operating Partnership of $550 million; a minimum tangible net worth for PMITH of $195 million; and a minimum tangible net worth for PMC of the sum of (y) $65 million and (z) 50% of its positive quarterly income after November 2, 2010;

• a maximum ratio of total liabilities to tangible net worth of less than 3:1 for the Company, 10:1 for PMC and 5:1 for the Operating Partnership and PMITH;

• a maximum ratio of liabilities to tangible net worth, in each case related to other than newly originated mortgage loans, of less than 3:1 for PMC; and

• at least two warehouse or repurchase facilities that finance amounts and assets similar to those being financed under our existing debt financing agreements.

Although these financial covenants limit the amount of indebtedness we may incur and impact our liquidity through minimum cash reserve requirements, we believe that these covenants currently provide us with sufficient flexibility to successfully operate our business and obtain the financing necessary to achieve that purpose.

When we have transactions relating to securities sold under agreements to repurchase, such transactions contain margin call provisions that, upon notice from the applicable lender at its option, require us to transfer cash or additional securities in an amount sufficient to eliminate any margin deficit. A margin deficit will generally result from any decline in the market value (as determined by the applicable lender) of the assets subject to an agreement to repurchase, although in some instances we may agree with the lender upon certain thresholds (in dollar amounts or percentages based on the market value of the assets) that must be exceeded before a margin deficit will arise. Upon notice from the applicable lender, we will generally be required to satisfy the margin call on the day of such notice or within one business day thereafter, depending on the timing of the notice.

The transactions relating to mortgage loans and/or equity interests in special purpose entities holding real property under agreements to repurchase contain margin call provisions that, upon notice from the applicable lender at its option, require us to transfer cash or additional mortgage loans or real property, as applicable, in an amount sufficient to eliminate any margin deficit. A margin deficit will generally result from any decline in the market value (as determined by the applicable lender) of the assets subject to an agreement to repurchase. Upon notice from the applicable lender, we will generally be required to satisfy the margin call on the day of such notice or within one business day thereafter, depending on the timing of the notice.

Our Manager continues to explore a variety of additional means of financing our continued growth, including debt financing through bank warehouse lines of credit, additional repurchase agreements, term financing, securitization transactions and additional equity offerings. However, there can be no assurance as to how much additional financing capacity such efforts will produce, what form the financing will take or that such

81

efforts will be successful. Further, counterparty credit sensitivity and collateral documentation requirements have made it difficult to obtain financing for REO, the result of which could place stress on our capital and liquidity positions at certain times during the foreclosure cycles of the related nonperforming loans.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements and Aggregate Contractual Obligations

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements and Guarantees

As of September 30, 2012, we have not entered into any off-balance sheet arrangements or guarantees.

Contractual Obligations

As of September 30, 2012, all of our known contractual obligations mature within one year. As of September 30, 2012, we had on-balance sheet contractual obligations of $1.0 billion to finance assets under agreements to repurchase with maturities between November 5, 2012 and September 29, 2013. All agreements to repurchase that matured between September 30, 2012 and the date of this Report have been renewed, extended or repaid and are described in Note 17—Securities Sold Under Agreements to Repurchase at Fair Value, Note 18—Mortgage Loans Acquired for Sale Sold Under Agreements to Repurchase, Note 19—Mortgage Loans at Fair Value Sold Under Agreements to Repurchase and Note 20—Real Estate Acquired in Settlement of Loans Financed Under Agreements to Repurchase in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

On September 28, 2012, we entered into a Master Repurchase Agreement (the “Re-warehouse Facility”) with Credit Suisse First Boston Mortgage Capital LLC. Under the Re-warehouse Facility, we may sell and later repurchase, newly originated mortgage loans, in an aggregate principal amount of up to $50 million, for which our Operating Partnership provides financing to third party mortgage loan originators. The Re-warehouse Facility will be used to help finance our warehouse lending business. We had no balances owing under the Re-warehouse facility as of September 30, 2012.

The amount at risk (the fair value of the assets pledged plus the related margin deposit, less the amount advanced by the counterparty and accrued interest) relating to the Company’s assets sold under agreements to repurchase and forward purchase agreements is summarized by counterparty below as of September 30, 2012:

Counterparty	Amount at risk (in thousands)

Management Agreement. Pursuant to the management agreement between PCM and us, we pay PCM a base management fee and may pay a performance incentive fee, both payable quarterly and in arrears. The base management fee is calculated at the annual rate of 1.5% of shareholders’ equity. “Shareholders’ equity” is defined as the sum of the net proceeds from any issuances of our equity securities since inception (weighted for the time outstanding during the measurement period); plus our retained earnings at the end of the quarter; less any amount we pay for repurchases of our common shares (weighted for the time held during the measurement period); and excluding one-time events pursuant to changes in U.S. GAAP and certain other non-cash charges after discussions between PCM and our independent trustees and approval by a majority of our independent trustees.

Effective May 16, 2012, we amended our management agreement with PCM to change the way shareholders’ equity is measured for purposes of calculating the base component of our management fee.

82

Previously, the measure of shareholders’ equity excluded unrealized gains, losses or other non-cash items reflected in our financial statements. The management agreement was amended to base the management fee on shareholders’ equity computed using US GAAP. The method of measuring the performance incentive fee was not changed. The purpose of the amendment was to better align the Manager’s base management fee with our investment strategy, which, in the pursuit of attractive investment opportunities, has evolved to include nonperforming mortgage loans that generate unrealized gains and correspondent lending activity that produces non-cash income through the retention of MSRs. The amendment is expected to increase the amount of the base management fee payable by us to the Manager.

The performance incentive fee is calculated at 20% per year of the amount by which “core earnings,” on a rolling four-quarter basis and before the incentive fee, exceeds an 8% “hurdle rate.” “Core earnings,” for purposes of determining the amount of the performance incentive fee, is defined as U.S. GAAP net income (loss) adjusted to exclude non-cash equity compensation expense, unrealized gains and losses or other non-cash items recognized during the period, any conditional payment amounts relating to our IPO paid to PCM and the underwriters of our IPO, and certain other non-cash charges after discussions between PCM and our independent trustees and approval by a majority of our independent trustees. The “hurdle rate” is calculated as the product of (1) the weighted average of the issue price per share of all of our public offerings multiplied by the weighted average number of shares outstanding (including, for the avoidance of doubt, restricted share units) in the four-quarter period and (2) 8%. During our first four quarters, core earnings were calculated based on the annualized results of each of the preceding quarters. For purposes of calculating the incentive fee, to the extent we have a net loss in core earnings from a period prior to the rolling four-quarter period that has not been offset by core earnings in a subsequent period, such loss will continue to be included in the rolling four-quarter calculation until it has been fully offset. This term is not applicable for purposes of determining whether the conditional payment of the underwriting discount is payable.

Under the management agreement, PCM is entitled to reimbursement of organizational and operating expenses, including third party expenses, incurred on our behalf. Our reimbursement obligation is not subject to any dollar limitation. Expenses are reimbursed in cash on a quarterly basis.

Under the management agreement, PCM may be entitled to a termination fee under certain circumstances. Specifically, the termination fee is payable for (1) our termination of the management agreement without cause or (2) PCM’s termination of the management agreement upon a default in the performance of any material term of the management agreement. The termination fee is equal to three times (a) the average annual base management fee and (b) the average annual (or, if the period is less than 24 months, annualized) incentive fee earned by PCM during the prior 24-month period before termination. Under circumstances where the termination fee is payable, we will agree to pay to PCM its portion of the conditional payment of the underwriting discount described below.

Loan Servicing Agreement. For its services under our loan servicing agreement, PLS is entitled to base servicing fees that are competitive with those charged by other servicers or specialty servicers, as applicable. Base servicing fees are calculated as a percentage of the unpaid principal balance of the mortgage loans, with the actual percentage being based on the risk characteristics of the loans in a particular pool. Such risk characteristics include market value of the underlying properties, creditworthiness of the borrowers, seasoning of the loans, degree of current and expected loan defaults, current loan-to-value ratios, borrowers’ payment history and debt-to-income levels.

The base servicing fees for distressed loans range from 30 to 100 basis points per year of the unpaid principal balance of such loans. PLS is also entitled to certain customary market-based fees and charges, including boarding and deboarding fees, liquidation and disposition fees, assumption, modification and origination fees and late charges, as well as interest on funds on deposit in custodial or escrow accounts.

When PLS effects a refinancing of a loan on our behalf and not through a third party lender and the resulting loan is readily saleable, PLS is entitled to receive from us market-based fees and compensation. Similarly, when PLS originates a loan to facilitate the disposition of real estate that we acquire in settlement of a loan, PLS is entitled to a fee in the same amount.

83

To the extent we participate in HAMP (or other similar mortgage loan modification programs), PLS is entitled to retain any incentive payments made to it and to which it is entitled under HAMP; provided, however, that with respect to any such incentive payments paid to PLS in connection with a mortgage loan modification for which we previously paid PLS a modification fee, PLS is required to reimburse us an amount equal to the lesser of such modification fee or such incentive payments.

Under the loan servicing agreement, PLS is also entitled to reimbursement for all customary, reasonable and necessary out of pocket expenses incurred by PLS in connection with the performance of its servicing obligations.

In connection with our correspondent lending business, PLS is entitled to base servicing fees, which range from 4 to 20 basis points per year of the unpaid principal balances of such loans, and other customary market-based fees and charges as described above.

Mortgage Banking Services Agreement. Pursuant to the terms of a mortgage banking services agreement, PLS also provides us with certain mortgage banking services, including fulfillment and disposition-related services, for a fulfillment fee based on a percentage of the unpaid principal balance of the mortgage loans. The fulfillment fee for such services is currently 50 basis points. Since November 1, 2010, we have collected interest income and a sourcing fee of three basis points for each mortgage loan we buy from a correspondent and sell to PLS for ultimate disposition to a third party where we are not approved or licensed to sell to such third party. During the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2012, we recorded fulfillment fees totaling $17.3 million and $31.1 million, respectively.

We paid fees to PLS as described above and as provided in our loan servicing agreement, and recorded other expenses, including common overhead expenses incurred on our behalf by PCM and its affiliates in accordance with the terms of its management agreement.

Conditional Payment of Underwriting Discount. Certain of the underwriting costs incurred in our IPO were paid on our behalf by PCM and a portion of the underwriting discount was deferred by agreement with the underwriters of the offering. Reimbursement to PCM and payment to the underwriters of the deferred underwriting discount are both contingent on our performance as follows: we will reimburse PCM approximately $2.9 million of underwriting costs paid by PCM on the offering date and pay the underwriters approximately $5.9 million in deferred underwriting discount if, during any full four calendar quarter period during the 24 full calendar quarters after the date of the completion of our IPO, August 4, 2009, our “core earnings” for such four-quarter period and before the incentive portion of PCM’s management fee equals or exceeds an 8% incentive fee “hurdle rate” (both defined above). If this requirement is not satisfied by the end of such 24 calendar quarter period, our obligation to reimburse PCM and make the conditional payment of the underwriting discount will terminate. We have concluded that these amounts are likely to be paid during the 24-quarter period and have recognized a liability for reimbursement to PCM and payment of the contingent underwriting discount as a reduction of additional paid-in capital.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Market risk is the exposure to loss resulting from changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices, equity prices, real estate values and other market-based risks. The primary market risks that we are exposed to are real estate risk, credit risk, interest rate risk, prepayment risk, inflation risk and market value risk. A substantial portion of our investments are comprised of nonperforming loans. We believe that such assets’ fair values respond primarily to changes in the fair value of the real estate securing such loans.

Factors That May Affect Our Future Results

This Report contains certain forward-looking statements that are subject to various risks and uncertainties. Forward-looking statements are generally identifiable by use of forward-looking terminology such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “potential,” “intend,” “expect,” “seek,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “approximately,” “believe,” “could,” “project,” “predict,” “continue,” “plan” or other similar words or expressions.

Forward-looking statements are based on certain assumptions, discuss future expectations, describe future plans and strategies, contain financial and operating projections or state other forward-looking information. Examples of forward-looking statements include the following:

• projections of our revenues, income, earnings per share, capital structure or other financial items;

• descriptions of assumptions underlying or relating to any of the foregoing expectations regarding the timing of generating any revenues.

Our ability to predict results or the actual effect of future events, actions, plans or strategies is inherently uncertain. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, our actual results and performance could differ materially from those set forth in the forward-looking statements. There are a number of factors, many of which are beyond our control, that could cause actual results to differ significantly from management’s expectations. Some of these factors are discussed below.

You should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statement and should consider the following uncertainties and risks, as well as the risks and uncertainties discussed elsewhere in this Report and as set forth in Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report.

86

Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from historical results or those anticipated include, but are not limited to:

• changes in our investment objectives or investment or operational strategies, including any new lines of business or new products and services that may subject us to additional risks;

• volatility in our industry, interest rates and spreads, the debt or equity markets, the general economy or the residential finance and real estate markets specifically, whether the result of market events or otherwise;

• events or circumstances which undermine confidence in the financial markets or otherwise have a broad impact on financial markets, such as a credit downgrade of U.S. Government obligations, the sudden instability or collapse of large depository institutions or other significant corporations, terrorist attacks, natural or man-made disasters, or threatened or actual armed conflicts;

• changes in general business, economic, market, employment, or in consumer confidence and spending habits and political conditions from those expected;

• continued declines in residential real estate and significant changes in U.S. housing prices and/or activity in the U.S. housing market;

• the availability of, and level of competition for, attractive risk-adjusted investment opportunities in residential mortgage loans and mortgage-related assets that satisfy our investment objectives and investment strategies;

• our success in winning bids to acquire loans or other investments;

• the concentration of credit and real estate risks to which we are exposed;

• the degree and nature of our competition;

• changes in personnel and lack of availability of qualified personnel;

• our dependence on PCM and PLS and potential conflicts of interest with PCM, PLS and their affiliated entities, and the performance of such entities;

• the availability, terms and deployment of short-term and long-term capital;

• the adequacy of our cash reserves and working capital;

• our ability to match the interest rates and maturities of our assets with our financing;

• the costs and effectiveness of our hedging efforts in relation to our commitments to purchase, our inventory of mortgage loans acquired for sale and our investments in MSRs;

• the timing and amount of cash flows, if any, from our investments;

• unanticipated increases in financing and other costs, including a rise in interest rates;

• the performance, financial condition and liquidity of borrowers;

• incomplete or inaccurate information or documentation provided by customers or counterparties, or adverse changes in the financial condition of our customers and counterparties;

• the quality and enforceability of the collateral documentation evidencing our ownership and rights in the assets in which we invest;

• increased rates of delinquency, default and/or decreased recovery rates on our investments;

• our ability to foreclose on our mortgage loan investments and liquidate the resulting real estate in a timely and cost-effective manner or at all;

• increased prepayments of the mortgages and other loans underlying our MBS, MSRs and other investments;

87

• the degree to which our hedging strategies may or may not protect us from interest rate volatility;

• the effect of the accuracy of or changes in the estimates we make about uncertainties and contingencies when measuring and reporting upon our financial condition and income;

• our failure to maintain appropriate internal controls over financial reporting;

• our ability to obtain and/or maintain licenses and other approvals in those jurisdictions where required to conduct our business;

• our ability to comply with various federal, state and local laws that govern our business;

• developments in the secondary markets for our mortgage loan products;

• legislative and regulatory changes that impact the mortgage loan industry or housing market;

• changes in regulations or the occurrence of other events that impact the business, operation or prospects of GSEs or government agencies such as the FHA or Veterans Administration;

• changes in government support of homeownership;

• changes in government or government-sponsored home affordability programs;

• changes in governmental regulations, accounting treatment, tax rates and similar matters (including changes to laws governing the taxation of REITs or the exclusions from registration as an investment company);

• limitations imposed on our business and our ability to satisfy complex rules for us to qualify as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes and qualify for an exclusion from the Investment Company Act of 1940 and the ability of certain of our subsidiaries to qualify as REITs or as subsidiaries to qualify as TRSs for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and our ability and the ability of our subsidiaries to operate effectively within the limitations imposed by these rules;

• estimates relating to our ability to make distributions to our shareholders in the future;

• the effect of public opinion on our reputation; and

• the occurrence of natural disasters or other events or circumstances that could impact our operations.

Other factors that could also cause results to differ from our expectations may not be described in this Report or any other document. Each of these factors could by itself, or together with one or more other factors, adversely affect our business, income and/or financial condition.

Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and we undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect the impact of circumstances or events that arise after the date the forward-looking statement was made.

RECITALS

Buyer, Guarantor and Seller are parties to that certain Master Repurchase Agreement, dated as of November 7, 2011, (the “Existing Master Repurchase Agreement”; and as further amended by this Amendment, the “Master Repurchase Agreement”). The Guarantor is a party to that certain Guaranty (as amended from time to time, the “Guaranty”), dated as of November 7, 2011, made by Guarantor in favor of Buyer.

Buyer, Seller and Guarantor have agreed, subject to the terms and conditions of this Amendment, that the Existing Master Repurchase Agreement be amended to reflect certain agreed upon revisions to the terms of the Existing Master Repurchase Agreement. As a condition precedent to amending the Existing Master Repurchase Agreement, Buyer has required Guarantor to ratify and affirm the Guaranty on the date hereof.

Accordingly, Buyer, Seller and Guarantor hereby agree, in consideration of the mutual premises and mutual obligations set forth herein, that the Existing Master Repurchase Agreement is hereby amended as follows:

SECTION 1. Definitions. Section 2 of the Existing Master Repurchase Agreement is hereby amended by:

1.1 adding the following defined term in its proper alphabetical order:

“HARP Mortgage Loan” means, unless otherwise defined in the Transactions Terms Letter, a Mortgage Loan that fully conforms to the Home Affordable Refinance Program (as such program is amended, supplemented or otherwise modified, from time to time), and is referred to by Fannie Mae as a “Refi Plus mortgage loan” or “DU Refi Plus mortgage loan”, and by Freddie Mac as a “Relief Refinance Mortgage”.

1.2 deleting the definition of “High LTV Mortgage Loan” and all uses thereof in its entirety.

1.3 deleting the defined terms “Noncompliant 60 Day Mortgage Loan” and “Noncompliant 90 Day Mortgage Loan”, each in its entirety and all uses thereof and replacing each respectively with the following:

“Noncompliant I” means either (a) a Purchased Mortgage Loan other than a Jumbo Mortgage Loan, which has been subject to one or more Transactions hereunder for a period of greater than 30 calendar days but not greater than 60 calendar days, or (b) a Purchased

“(iv) with respect to a HARP Mortgage Loan and upon request, an appraisal or a waiver thereof, and/or a point value estimate, as permitted by the applicable Agency Guide (a copy of which is contained in the related Servicing Records”).

SECTION 3. Schedule 1. Schedule 1 of the Existing Master Repurchase Agreement is hereby amended by deleting clauses (dd), (ii) and (oo), each in its entirety and replacing each respectively with the following (with modified text underlined for review purposes):

(dd) Appraisal. The Mortgage File contains (a) a full appraisal of the related Mortgaged Property (except when the Agency Guides exempt certain Conforming Mortgage Loans from the requirement to obtain an appraisal (including HARP Mortgage Loans)) signed prior to the funding of the Mortgage Loan by a qualified appraiser, duly appointed by Seller, who had no interest, direct or indirect in the Mortgaged Property or in any loan made on the security thereof, and whose compensation is not affected by the approval or disapproval of the Mortgage Loan, and the appraisal and appraiser both satisfy the relevant Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac guidelines, each as amended and as in effect on the date the Mortgage Loan was originated and (b) for each HARP Mortgage Loan, (i) a full appraisal (as described in the foregoing clause (a)); (ii) a reliable automated valuation model estimate provided by the related Agency or (iii) an appraisal or waiver thereof that meets the requirements of the applicable Agency Guide.

(oo) Underwriting Guidelines. Each Purchased Mortgage Loan has been originated in accordance with the Underwriting Guidelines (including all supplements or amendments thereto) previously provided to Buyer. Each HARP Mortgage Loan was originated in accordance with and remains in compliance with the Agency Guides and the guidance issued by the Federal Housing Finance Authority, Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac, as

2

applicable, for origination of mortgage loans under the Home Affordable Refinance Program (as such program is amended, supplemented or otherwise modified, from time to time).

SECTION 4. Liquidity. Section 14(a)(2) of the Existing Master Repurchase Agreement is hereby amended by deleting clause (B) in its entirety and replacing it with the following:

“(B) PMIT and its Subsidiaries have maintained in the aggregate Liquidity in an amount not less than $20,000,000.”

SECTION 9. Severability. Each provision and agreement herein shall be treated as separate and independent from any other provision or agreement herein and shall be enforceable notwithstanding the unenforceability of any such other provision or agreement.

SECTION 10. GOVERNING LAW. THE AMENDMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, AND GOVERNED BY, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO THE CONFLICT OF LAWS PRINCIPLES THEREOF.

Mortgage Loans Acquired for Sale Sold Under Agreements to Repurchase

Note 18—Mortgage Loans Acquired for Sale Sold Under Agreements to Repurchase

Following is a summary of financial information relating to mortgage loans acquired for sale sold under agreements to repurchase as of and for the periods presented:

	Quarter ended September  30,						Nine months  ended September 30,
	2012			2011			2012			2011
	(dollar amounts in thousands)
Period end:
Balance	$	755,471		$	36,191		$	755,471		$	36,191
Unused amount(1)(3)	$	244,529		$	38,809		$	244,529		$	38,809
Weighted-average interest rate		2.61	%		2.64	%		2.61	%		2.64	%
Fair value of mortgage loans acquired for sale securing agreements to repurchase	$	846,856		$	40,496		$	846,856		$	40,496
During the period:
Weighted-average interest rate during the period(2)		2.42	%		2.65	%		2.29	%		2.60	%
Average balance of loans sold under agreements to repurchase	$	462,137		$	27,701		$	294,857		$	13,236
Maximum daily amount outstanding	$	755,502		$	48,535		$	755,502		$	48,535
Total interest expense	$	3,947		$	375		$	7,221		$	948

(1) The amount the Company is able to borrow under loan repurchase agreements is tied to the fair value of unencumbered mortgage loans eligible to secure those agreements and the Company’s ability to fund the agreements’ margin requirements relating to the collateral sold.

(2) Weighted-average interest rate during the periods excludes the effect of amortization of debt issuance costs of $1.1 million and $2.1 million during the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2012, and $188,000 and $687,000 during the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2011, respectively.

(3) The unused amount reflects a temporary increase in one of the facilities available to the Company during September 2012. The Company received a $100 million increase in one of its credit facilities for the period from September 26, 2012 through October 10, 2012. The increase in the credit facility has subsequently expired.

The repurchase agreements collateralized by loans have an average remaining term of approximately 7.8 months at September 30, 2012.

Following is a summary of maturities of repurchase agreements by maturity date:

Remaining Maturity at September 30, 2012	Balance
	(in thousands)
Within 30 days	$	—
Over 30 to 90 days		219,641
Over 90 days to 180 days		—
Over 180 days to 1 year		535,830
	$	755,471

The amount at risk (the fair value of the assets pledged plus the related margin deposit, less the amount advanced by the counterparty and accrued interest) relating to the Company’s mortgage loans acquired for sale sold under agreements to repurchase is summarized by counterparty below as of September 30, 2012:

Counterparty	Amount at risk		Weighted-average repurchase agreement maturity
	(in thousands)
Citibank	$	19,741	May 23, 2013
Credit Suisse First Boston Mortgage Capital LLC	$	41,718	October 29, 2013
Bank of America, N.A	$	26,482	December 5, 2012
Barclays Bank PLC	$	8,985	July 1, 2013

The Company is subject to margin calls during the period the agreements are outstanding and therefore may be required to repay a portion of the borrowings before the respective agreements mature if the value (as determined by the applicable lender) of the mortgage loans securing those agreements decreases. As of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the Company had $6.3 million and $1.6 million, respectively, on deposit with its loan repurchase agreement counterparties. Margin deposits are included in Other assets in the consolidated balance sheets.

Segments and Related Information

Sep. 30, 2012

Segments and Related Information

Note 30—Segments and Related Information

The Company has two business segments: investment activities and correspondent lending.

The investment activities segment represents the Company’s investments in distressed mortgage loans, REO, MBS and MSRs. Management seeks to maximize the value of the mortgage loans acquired by the Company through proprietary loan modification programs, special servicing and other initiatives focused on keeping borrowers in their homes. Where this is not possible, such as in the case of many nonperforming mortgage loans, the Company seeks to effect property resolution in a timely, orderly and economically efficient manner. The Company also invests in MSRs, MBS and other mortgage-related real estate and financial assets.

The correspondent lending segment represents the Company’s operations aimed at serving as an intermediary between mortgage originators, particularly mortgage lenders, and the capital markets by purchasing, pooling and reselling the loans either directly or in the form of MBS.

Through the third quarter of 2011, the Company’s activities were almost exclusively within the investment activities segment. Financial highlights by operating segment for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2012 are as follows:

Concentration of Risks

Concentration of Risks

Note 2—Concentration of Risks

As discussed in Note 1—Organization and Basis of Presentation above, PMT’s investing activities are centered in real estate-related assets, a substantial portion of which are distressed at acquisition. Because of the Company’s investment strategy, many of the mortgage loans in its targeted asset class are purchased at discounts reflecting their distressed state or perceived higher risk of default, as well as a greater likelihood of collateral documentation deficiencies. Before the Company buys loans or other assets, PCM validates key information provided by the sellers that is necessary to determine the value of the acquired asset. A substantial portion of the distressed mortgage loans purchased by the Company has been acquired from or through one or more subsidiaries of Citigroup, Inc.

Through its management agreement with PCM and its loan servicing agreement with PLS, PMT works with borrowers to perform loss mitigation activities. Such activities include the use of loan modification programs (such as the U.S. Department of the Treasury and Housing and Urban Development’s Home Affordable Modification Program (“HAMP”)) and workout options that PCM believes have the highest probability of successful resolution for both borrowers and PMT. Loan modification or resolution may include PMT accepting a reduction of the principal balances of certain mortgage loans in its investment portfolio. When loan modifications and other efforts are unable to cure distressed loans, the Company’s objective is to effect timely acquisition and liquidation of the property securing the mortgage loan.

Because of the Company’s investment focus, PMT is exposed, to a greater extent than traditional mortgage investors, to the risks that borrowers may be in financial distress and/or may have become unemployed, bankrupt or otherwise unable or unwilling to make payments when due, and to the effects of fluctuations in the residential real estate market on the performance of its investments. Factors influencing these risks include, but are not limited to:

• changes in the overall economy, unemployment and residential real estate values in the markets where the properties securing the Company’s mortgage loans are located;

• PCM’s ability to identify and the Company’s loan servicers’ ability to execute optimal resolutions of problem mortgage loans;

• the accuracy of valuation information obtained during the Company’s due diligence activities;

• PCM’s ability to effectively model, and to develop appropriate model assumptions that properly anticipate, future outcomes;

• the level of government support for problem loan resolution and the effect of current and future proposed and enacted legislative and regulatory changes on the Company’s ability to service and effect cures or resolutions to distressed loans; and

• regulatory, judicial and legislative support of the foreclosure process, and the resulting impact on the Company’s ability to acquire and liquidate the real estate securing its portfolio of distressed mortgage loans in a timely manner or at all.

Due to these uncertainties, there can be no assurance that risk management activities identified and executed on PMT’s behalf will prevent significant losses arising from the Company’s investments in real estate-related assets.

On July 12, 2011 and December 20, 2011, the Company entered into forward purchase agreements with Citigroup Global Markets Realty Corp. (“CGM”), a subsidiary of Citigroup Inc., to purchase certain nonperforming residential mortgage loans and residential real property acquired in settlement of loans (collectively, the “CGM Assets”). The CGM Assets were acquired by CGM from unaffiliated money center banks. The commitment under the forward purchase agreement dated July 12, 2011 was settled during the quarter ended June 30, 2012. The commitment under the forward purchase agreement dated December 20, 2011 was settled during the quarter ended September 30, 2012.

The CGM Assets were included on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet as Mortgage loans under forward purchase agreements at fair value and Real estate acquired in settlement of loans under forward purchase agreements and the related liabilities were included as Borrowings under forward purchase agreements. The CGM Assets were held by CGM within a separate trust entity deemed a variable interest entity. The Company’s interests in the CGM Assets were deemed to be contractually segregated from all other interests in the trust. When assets are contractually segregated, they are often referred to as a “silo.” For these transactions, the silo consisted of the CGM Assets and its related liability. The Company directed all of the activities that drive the economic results of the CGM Assets. All of the changes in the fair value and cash flows of the CGM Assets were attributable solely to the Company, and such cash flows could only be used to settle the related liability.

As a result of consolidating the silo, the Company’s consolidated statements of income and cash flows for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 includes the following amounts related to the silo:

	Quarter ended September 30,					Nine months ended September 30,

Net income:
Net gain on mortgage loans	$	105		$	10,041	$	9,293	$	10,041

Results of REO	$	(4	)	$	—	$	1,870	$	—

Cash flows:

Sales of REO	$	—		$	—	$	9,912	$	—
Repayments of borrowings under forward purchase agreements	$	16,859		$	11,115	$	157,166	$	11,115

The Company has no other variable interests in the trust entity, or other exposure to the creditors of the trust entity which could expose the Company to loss.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, the Company purchased $411.4 million of mortgage loans at fair value and real estate acquired in settlement of loans for its investment portfolio. All of the $411.4 million was purchased from or through one or more subsidiaries of Citigroup, Inc.

Beginning in the fourth quarter of 2011, the Company’s correspondent lending activities have been experiencing substantial growth. As a result of such growth, the Company’s correspondent lending segment contributed approximately 49% of PMT’s pre-tax income during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and the inventory of mortgage loans acquired for sale at fair value represented approximately 40% of the Company’s investments at September 30, 2012.

Correspondent lending activities introduce different risks from those posed by investments in distressed assets. The Company’s correspondent lending activities and the MSRs resulting from such activities are more sensitive to the level and volatility of interest rates. For example, a decline in mortgage rates generally increases the demand for home loans as borrowers refinance, but also generally leads to accelerated payoffs in the Company’s mortgage servicing portfolio, which have a negative effect on the value of MSRs.

Management attempts to manage the sensitivity of earnings to the changes in market interest rates through the use of derivative financial instruments to moderate the effects of changes in the level and volatility of interest rates on the fair value of the Company’s inventory of mortgage loans acquired for sale at fair value and commitments to purchase mortgage loans for sale. The Company does not presently use derivative financial instruments to moderate the effects on PMT’s earnings of changes in the fair value of its investment in MSRs.

The success of the Company’s interest rate risk management strategies depends in part on management’s ability to predict the earnings sensitivity of its loan purchasing and its loan servicing activities in various interest rate environments. There are many market factors that affect the performance of the Company’s interest rate risk management activities including interest rate volatility, the shape of the yield curve and the spread between mortgage interest rates and United States Treasury or swap rates. The success of this strategy affects PMT’s net income and the effect can be either positive or negative, and can be material to the Company.

The correspondent lending segment’s ability to sell loans profitably is affected by many factors, including the relative demands for such loans and MBS evidencing interests in such loans, the cost of credit enhancements and interest rate risk management, investor perceptions of such loans and MBS and the risks posed by such products.

Liability for Representations and Warranties

Note 23—Liability for Representations and Warranties

The Company’s agreements with the Agencies include representations and warranties related to the loans the Company sells to the Agencies. The representations and warranties require adherence to Agency origination and underwriting guidelines, including but not limited to the validity of the lien securing the loan, property eligibility, borrower credit, income and asset requirements, and compliance with applicable federal, state and local law.

In the event of a breach of its representations and warranties, the Company may be required to either repurchase the mortgage loans with the identified defects or indemnify the investor or insurer. In such cases, the Company bears any subsequent credit loss on the mortgage loans. The Company’s representations and warranties are generally not subject to stated limits of exposure. The Company’s credit loss may be reduced by any recourse it has to correspondent lenders that, in turn, had sold such mortgage loans to the Company and breached similar or other representations and warranties. In such event, the Company has the right to seek a recovery of related repurchase losses from that originator.

The Company records a provision for losses relating to such the representations and warranties as part of its loan sale transactions. The method used to estimate the liability for representations and warranties is a function of the representations and warranties given and considers a combination of factors, including, but not limited to, estimated future defaults and loan repurchase rates and the potential severity of loss in the event of defaults and the probability of reimbursement by the correspondent loan seller. The Company establishes a liability at the time loans are sold and continually updates its liability estimate.

Following is a summary of the Company’s liability for representations and warranties included in Accounts payable and accrued liabilities for the periods presented:

The level of the liability for representations and warranties is difficult to estimate and requires considerable management judgment. The level of mortgage loan repurchase losses is dependent on economic factors, investor demand strategies, and other external conditions that may change over the lives of the underlying loans, However, management believes the amount and range of reasonably possible losses in relation to the recorded liability is not material to the Company’s financial condition or results of operations. The current unpaid principal balance of loans sold by the Company to date represents the maximum exposure to repurchases related to representations and warranties.

Organization and Basis of Presentation

Organization and Basis of Presentation

Note 1—Organization and Basis of Presentation

PennyMac Mortgage Investment Trust (“PMT” or the “Company”) was organized in Maryland on May 18, 2009, and began operations on August 4, 2009, when it completed its initial offerings of common shares of beneficial interest (“shares”). The Company is a specialty finance company, which, through its subsidiaries (all of which are wholly-owned), invests primarily in residential mortgage loans and mortgage-related assets.

The Company is externally managed by an affiliate, PNMAC Capital Management, LLC (“PCM” or the “Manager”), an investment adviser registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) that specializes in and focuses on residential mortgage loans. Under the terms of a management agreement, PCM is entitled to be paid a management fee with a base component and a performance incentive component. Determination of the amount of management fees is discussed in Note 3—Transactions with Related Parties.

The Company’s objective is to provide attractive risk-adjusted returns to its investors over the long-term, principally through dividends and secondarily through capital appreciation. The Company intends to achieve this objective largely by investing in distressed mortgage assets and acquiring, pooling and selling newly originated prime credit quality residential mortgage loans (“correspondent lending”).

The Company reports its results in two segments: investment activities and correspondent lending. The investment activities segment focuses on mortgage assets that are acquired and held for investment purposes and the correspondent lending segment focuses on the purchase for resale of newly originated mortgage loans.

The investment activities segment represents the Company’s investments in distressed mortgage loans, real estate acquired in settlement of loans (“REO”), mortgage-backed securities (“MBS”) and mortgage servicing rights (“MSRs”). Management seeks to maximize the value of the distressed mortgage loans acquired by the Company through proprietary loan modification programs, special servicing and other initiatives focused on keeping borrowers in their homes. Where this is not possible, such as in the case of many nonperforming mortgage loans, the Company seeks to effect property resolution in a timely, orderly and economically efficient manner, including through the use of resolution alternatives to foreclosure.

The correspondent lending segment represents the Company’s operations aimed at serving as an intermediary between mortgage lenders and the capital markets by purchasing, pooling and reselling newly originated prime credit quality mortgage loans either directly or in the form of MBS, using the services of the Manager and an affiliated company, PennyMac Loan Services, LLC (“PLS”).

The Company believes that it qualifies, and has elected to be taxed, as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Internal Revenue Code”), beginning with its taxable period ended on December 31, 2009. To maintain its tax status as a REIT, the Company plans to distribute at least 90% of its taxable income in the form of qualifying distributions to shareholders.

The Company conducts substantially all of its operations and makes substantially all of its investments through its subsidiary, PennyMac Operating Partnership, L.P. (the “Operating Partnership”), and the Operating Partnership’s subsidiaries. A subsidiary of the Company is the sole general partner, and the Company is the sole limited partner, of the Operating Partnership.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in compliance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the SEC’s instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, these financial statements and notes do not include all of the information required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. The interim consolidated information should be read together with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011 (the “Annual Report”).

Certain amounts in prior presentations have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation. For the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2011, $361,000 and $628,000 in collection expenses were reclassified from other expenses to loan servicing expenses to conform to the current presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on previously reported shareholders’ equity, net income or earnings per share amounts.

Preparation of financial statements in compliance with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results will likely differ from those estimates.

In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the periods ended September 30, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of the results for the year ending December 31, 2012.

Shareholders' Equity

Note 25—Shareholders’ Equity

On May 11, 2012, the Company issued and sold 10,000,000 common shares in an underwritten public offering and received $193.5 million of proceeds, after the underwriting discount and estimated offering expenses and the reimbursement of certain expenses. On May 17, 2012, the Company issued and sold an additional 287,706 common shares pursuant to the exercise of an option to purchase additional shares by the public offering’s underwriters and received $5.4 million of net proceeds after the underwriting discount and reimbursement of certain expenses. Proceeds from the issuance of these shares were used to fund a portion of the purchase price of portfolios of residential mortgage whole loans, to fund the continued growth of the correspondent lending business, to acquire additional mortgage loans or other investments, including those under existing forward purchase agreements, and for general corporate purposes.

On August 22, 2012, the Company issued and sold 17,250,000 common shares in an underwritten public offering and received $357.2 million of proceeds, after the underwriting discount and estimated offering expenses and the reimbursement of net certain expenses. Proceeds from the issuance of these shares were used to fund a portion of the purchase price of portfolios of residential mortgage whole loans, to fund the continued growth of the correspondent lending business, to acquire additional mortgage loans or other investments, including those under existing forward purchase agreements, and for general corporate purposes.

 During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, the Company sold common shares under a Controlled Equity Offering Sales Agreement with Cantor Fitzgerald & Co. and under an ATM Equity Offering^SM Sales Agreement with Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated. Pursuant to the Controlled Equity Offering Sales Agreement and the ATM Equity Offering^SM, The Company sold 2,800,710 of its common shares at a weighted average price of $ 18.58 per share, providing net proceeds to the Company of $ 51.0 million, net of sales commissions. The sales agents received a total of approximately $999,000, which represents an average commission of approximately 2.0% of the gross sales price. 

As more fully described in the Company’s Annual Report, certain of the underwriting costs incurred in the Company’s IPO were paid on PMT’s behalf by PCM and a portion of the underwriting discount was deferred by agreement with the underwriters of the offering. Reimbursement to PCM and payment to the underwriters of the deferred underwriting discount is both contingent on PMT’s performance during any full four calendar quarter period during the 24 full calendar quarters after the date of the completion of its IPO, August 4, 2009. If PMT meets the specified performance levels during any full four calendar quarter period during the 24-quarter period, the Company will reimburse PCM approximately $2.9 million of underwriting costs paid by PCM on the offering date and pay the underwriters approximately $5.9 million in deferred underwriting discount. If this requirement is not satisfied by the end of such 24-quarter period, the Company’s obligation to reimburse PCM and make the conditional payment of the underwriting discount will terminate. Management has concluded that these amounts are likely to be paid during the 24-quarter period and has recognized a liability for reimbursement to PCM and payment of the contingent underwriting discount as a reduction of additional paid-in capital.

• On November 5, 2012, PCM committed to acquire on the Company’s behalf mortgage loans with purchase prices totaling approximately $111.5 million. The pending transaction is subject to continuing due diligence and customary closing conditions. There can be no assurance that the committed amounts will ultimately be acquired or that the transactions will be completed at all.

• On November 7, 2012, the Company’s board of trustees declared a cash dividend of $0.57 per share payable on November 30, 2012 to holders of record of the Company’s common shares as of November 19, 2012.

Summary of Company's Estimate of Amortization of its Existing MSRs Carried at Lower of Amortized Cost or Fair Value

The following table summarizes the Company’s estimate of amortization of its existing MSRs carried at lower of amortized cost or fair value. This projection was developed using the assumptions made by management in its September 30, 2012 valuation of MSRs, which will change as market conditions and portfolio composition and behavior vary. Therefore, both actual and projected amortization levels will differ from this projection in a manner and amount not presently determinable by management.

Income Taxes

Note 29—Income Taxes

The Company has elected to be taxed as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes under Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code. Therefore, PMT generally will not be subject to corporate federal or state income tax to the extent that qualifying distributions are made to shareholders and the Company meets REIT requirements including certain asset, income, distribution and share ownership tests. The Company believes that it has met the distribution requirements, as it has declared dividends sufficient to distribute substantially all of its taxable income. Taxable income will generally differ from net income. The primary difference between net income and the REIT taxable income (before deduction for qualifying distributions) is the income of the taxable REIT subsidiaries (“TRSs”) and the method of determining the income or loss related to valuation of the mortgage loans owned by the qualified REIT subsidiary (“QRS”). Other differences between REIT book income and REIT taxable income are not material.

In general, cash dividends declared by the Company will be considered ordinary income to the shareholders for income tax purposes. Some portion of the dividends may be characterized as capital gain distributions or a return of capital. Most of the 2011 distributions were characterized as ordinary income and approximately 5% was characterized as capital gain.

The Company had elected to treat two of its subsidiaries as TRSs. In the quarter ended September 30, 2012, the Company revoked the election to treat its wholly owned subsidiary that is the sole general partner of its Operating Partnership (the “GP”) as a TRS. Only one subsidiary, PennyMac Corp. (“PMC”), is now treated as a TRS.

Income from a TRS is only included as a component of REIT taxable income to the extent that the TRS makes dividend distributions of income to the REIT. No dividend distributions have been made to date from PMC to the Company.

A TRS is subject to corporate federal and state income tax. Accordingly, a provision for income taxes for PMC and, for the period for which TRS treatment had been elected, the sole general partner of the Company’s operating partnership is included in the consolidated statements of income.

The Company files U.S. federal and state income tax returns for both the REIT and TRSs. These returns for 2009 and forward are subject to examination by the respective tax authorities. No returns are currently under examination.

The following table details the Company’s provision for income taxes which relates primarily to the TRSs, for the periods presented:

At September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the Company had no unrecognized tax benefits and does not anticipate any increase in unrecognized tax benefits. Should the accrual of any interest or penalties relative to unrecognized tax benefits be necessary, it is the Company’s policy to record such accruals in the Company’s income tax accounts. No such accruals existed at September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011.

Note 11—Derivative Financial Instruments

Following is a summary of the distribution of the Company’s derivative financial instruments which are included in Other assets and Accounts payable and accrued liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets as of the dates presented:

Liability:
Forward sales contracts	$	2,453,036	$	36,203	$	358,291	$	3,917

The Company is exposed to price risk arising from changes in market interest rates relative to its mortgage loans acquired for sale and to the commitments it makes to acquire loans from correspondent lenders. The Company is also exposed to such risks when it holds Agency MBS. The Company bears price risk from the time a commitment to purchase a loan is made to a correspondent lender to the time the purchased mortgage loan is sold. During these periods, the Company is exposed to losses if mortgage interest rates rise, because, when interest rates rise, the value of the purchase commitment or mortgage loan acquired for sale declines. Similarly, the Company bears price risk relative to its holdings of Agency MBS during the period it holds such securities.

The Company engages in interest rate risk management activities in an effort to reduce the variability of earnings caused by changes in market interest rates. To manage this price risk resulting from interest rate risk, the Company uses derivative financial instruments acquired with the intention of moderating the risk that changes in market interest rates will result in unfavorable changes in the value of the Company’s interest rate lock commitments, inventory of mortgage loans acquired for sale and Agency MBS. The Company does not use derivative financial instruments for purposes other than in support of its risk management activities.

The following table summarizes the notional amount activity for derivative contracts used to hedge the Company’s interest rate lock commitments, inventory of mortgage loans acquired for sale and Agency MBS:

Earnings Per Share

Note 4—Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share is determined using net income divided by the weighted-average common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income attributable to common shareholders by the weighted-average common shares outstanding, assuming all potentially dilutive common shares were issued. In periods in which the Company records a loss, potentially dilutive common shares are excluded from the diluted loss per share calculation, as their effect on loss per share is anti-dilutive.

The Company makes grants of restricted share units which entitle the recipients to receive dividend equivalents during the vesting period on a basis equivalent to the dividends paid to holders of common shares. For purposes of calculating earnings per share, unvested share-based compensation awards containing non-forfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents (collectively, “dividends”) are classified as “participating securities” and are included in the basic earnings per share calculation using the two-class method. Under the two-class method, all earnings (distributed and undistributed) are allocated to each class of common shares and participating securities, based on their respective rights to receive dividends.

The following table summarizes the basic and diluted earnings per share calculations for the periods presented:

Fair Value

Note 6—Fair Value

The Company’s financial statements include assets and liabilities that are measured based on their estimated fair values. Measurement of these assets and liabilities at fair value may be on a recurring or nonrecurring basis depending on the accounting principles applicable to the specific asset or liability and whether management has elected to carry the item at its estimated fair value as discussed in the following paragraphs.

Fair Value Accounting Elections

Management identified all of its non cash financial assets, including short-term investments, United States Treasury security, MBS, and mortgage loans as well as its securities sold under agreements to repurchase and its MSRs relating to loans with initial interest rates of more than 4.5% that were acquired as a result of its correspondent lending operations to be accounted for at estimated fair value so such changes in fair value will be reflected in income as they occur and more timely reflect the results of the Company’s investment performance.

For MSRs relating to mortgage loans with initial interest rates of less than or equal to 4.5% that were acquired as a result of the Company’s correspondent lending operations, management has concluded that such assets present different risks to the Company than MSRs relating to mortgage loans with initial interest rates of more than 4.5% and therefore require a different risk management approach. Management’s risk management efforts relating to these assets are aimed at moderating the effects of non-interest rate risks on fair value, such as the effect of changes in home prices on the assets’ values. Management has identified these assets for accounting using the amortization method. Management’s risk management efforts in connection with MSRs relating to mortgage loans with initial interest rates of more than 4.5% are aimed at moderating the effects of changes in interest rates on the assets’ values.

For loans sold under agreements to repurchase subject to agreements made beginning in December 2010, REO financed through agreements to repurchase beginning in June 2011 and borrowings under forward purchase agreements beginning in July 2011, management has determined that historical cost accounting is more appropriate because under this method debt issuance costs are spread over the term of the debt, thereby matching the debt issuance expense to the periods benefiting from the usage of the debt.

Real Estate Acquired in Settlement of Loans

The Company measures its investment in REO at the respective properties’ estimated fair values less cost to sell on a nonrecurring basis. The value of the REO is initially established as the lesser of either (a) the fair value of the loan at the date of transfer, (b) the fair value of the real estate less estimated costs to sell as of the date of transfer or (c) the purchase price of the property. REO may be subsequently revalued due to the Company receiving greater access to the property, the property being held for an extended period or management receiving indications that the property’s value may not be supported by developing market conditions. Any subsequent change in fair value to a level that is less than or equal to the value at which the property was initially recorded is recognized in Results of real estate acquired in settlement of loans in the consolidated statements of income.

Mortgage Servicing Rights at Lower of Amortized Cost or Fair Value

The Company evaluates its MSRs at lower of amortized cost or fair value for impairment with reference to the assets’ fair value. For purposes of performing its MSR impairment evaluation, the Company stratifies its MSRs at lower of amortized cost or fair value based on the interest rates borne by the mortgage loans underlying the MSRs. Mortgage loans are grouped into note rate pools of 50 basis points for fixed-rate mortgage loans with note rates between 3% and 4.5% and a single pool for mortgage loans with note rates below 3%. MSRs relating to adjustable rate mortgage loans with initial interest rates of 4.5% or less are evaluated in a single pool. If the fair value of MSRs in any of the note rate pools is below the carrying value of the MSRs for that pool reduced by any existing valuation allowance, those MSRs are impaired.

When MSRs are impaired, the impairment is recognized in current-period earnings and the carrying value of the MSRs is adjusted using a valuation allowance. If the value of the MSRs subsequently increases, the restoration of value is recognized in current period earnings only to the extent of the valuation allowance.

Management periodically reviews the various impairment strata to determine whether the value of the impaired MSRs in a given stratum is likely to recover. When management deems recovery of the value to be unlikely in the foreseeable future, a write-down of the cost of the MSRs for that stratum to its estimated fair value is charged to the valuation allowance.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments Carried at Amortized Cost

The Company’s cash balances as well as its borrowings secured by its inventory of mortgage loans acquired for sale and its investments in nonperforming loans and REO in the form of repurchase agreements and borrowings under forward purchase agreements are carried at amortized costs. The election to carry the borrowings at amortized cost is discussed in Fair Value Accounting Elections above.

Management has concluded that the estimated fair values of Cash, Mortgage loans acquired for sale at fair value sold under agreements to repurchase, Mortgage loans at fair value sold under agreements to repurchase, Real estate acquired in settlement of loans financed under agreements to repurchase, Note payable secured by mortgage loans at fair value and Borrowings under forward purchase agreements approximate the agreements’ carrying values due to the immediate realizability of cash at its carrying amount and to the borrowing agreements’ short terms and variable interest rates.

Cash is measured using Level 1 Inputs. The Company’s borrowings carried at amortized cost do not have active markets or observable inputs and the fair value is measured using management’s best estimate of fair value, where the inputs into the determination of fair value require significant management judgment or estimation. The Company has classified these financial instruments as Level 3 as of September 30, 2012 due to the lack of current market activity and the Company’s reliance on unobservable inputs to estimate the fair value.

Valuation Process, Techniques and Assumptions

Most of the Company’s assets are carried at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in current period results of operations. A substantial portion of those assets are “Level 3” financial statement items which require the use of significant unobservable inputs in the estimation of the assets’ values. Unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s own assumptions about the factors that market participants use in pricing an asset or liability, and are based on the best information available under the circumstances.

The Manager has assigned the responsibility for estimating the fair values of “Level 3” financial statement items to a specialized valuation group and has developed procedures and controls governing the valuation process relating to these assets. The estimation of fair values of the Company’s financial assets are assigned to the Manager’s Financial Analysis and Valuation group (the “FAV group”), which is responsible for valuing and monitoring the Company’s investment portfolios and maintenance of its valuation policies and procedures.

The FAV group reports to the Manager’s senior management valuation committee, which oversees and approves the valuations. The valuation committee includes the chief executive, financial, investment and credit officers of the Manager. The FAV group monitors the models used for valuation of the Company’s “Level 3” financial statement items, including the models’ performance versus actual results and reports those results to the valuation committee. The results developed in the FAV group’s monitoring activities are used to calibrate subsequent projections used for valuation.

The FAV group is responsible for reporting to the valuation committee on a monthly basis on the changes in the valuation of the portfolio, including major drivers affecting the valuation and any changes in model methods and assumptions. To assess the reasonableness of its valuations, the FAV group presents an analysis of the effect on the valuation of each of the changes to the significant inputs to the models.

The following describes the methods used in estimating the fair values of Level 2 and Level 3 financial statement items:

Mortgage-Backed Securities

MBS values are presently determined based on whether the securities are issued by one of the Agencies as discussed below:

• Agency MBS are categorized as “Level 2” financial statement items. Fair value of Agency MBS is estimated based on quoted market prices for similar securities.

• Non-Agency MBS are categorized as “Level 3” financial statement items. Fair value of non-Agency MBS is estimated using broker indications of value. For indications of value received, the FAV group and a separate Capital Markets group review the price indications provided by non-affiliate brokers for completeness, accuracy and consistency across all similar MBS managed by the Manager. Bond-level analytics such as yield, weighted average life and projected prepayment and default speeds of the underlying collateral are computed. The reasonableness of the brokers’ indications of value and of changes in value from period to period is evaluated in light of the analytical review performed and considering market conditions. The review of the FAV group is reported to the Manager’s valuation committee as part of its review and approval of monthly valuation results. The Manager has not adjusted, and does not intend to adjust, its fair value estimates to amounts different than the brokers’ indications of value.

The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Company’s non-Agency MBS are discount rates, prepayment speeds, default speeds and loss severities in the event of default (or “collateral remaining loss percentage”). Significant changes in any of those inputs in isolation could result in a significant change in fair value measurement. Changes in these assumptions are not directly correlated, as they may be separately affected by changes in collateral characteristics and performance, servicer behavior, legal and regulatory actions, economic and housing market data and market sentiment.

Following is a quantitative summary of key inputs used by the FAV group to evaluate the reasonableness of the fair value of Level 3 MBS:

		Range (Weighted Average)

Mortgage Loans

Fair value of mortgage loans is estimated based on whether the mortgage loans are saleable into active markets with established counterparties and transparent pricing:

• Mortgage loans that are saleable into active markets, comprised of the Company’s mortgage loans acquired for sale at fair value, are categorized as “Level 2” financial statement items and their fair values are estimated using their quoted market or contracted price or market price equivalent.

• Loans that are not saleable into active markets, comprised of the Company’s mortgage loans at fair value and mortgage loans under forward purchase agreements at fair value, are categorized as “Level 3” financial statement items, and their fair values are estimated using a discounted cash flow approach. Inputs to the discounted cash flow model include current interest rates, loan amount, payment status and property type, and forecasts of future interest rates, home prices, prepayment speeds, default and loss severities. The valuation process includes the computation by stratum of loan population and a review for reasonableness of various measures such as weighted average life, projected prepayment and default speeds, and projected default and loss percentages. The FAV group computes the effect on the valuation of changes in input variables such as interest rates, home prices, and delinquency status to assess the reasonableness of changes in the loan valuation. The results of the estimates of fair value of “Level 3” mortgage loans are reported to PCM’s valuation committee as part of its review and approval of monthly valuation results.

Changes in fair value attributable to changes in instrument-specific credit risk are measured by the change in the respective loan’s delinquency status at period-end from the later of the beginning of the period or acquisition date.

The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Company’s mortgage loans at fair value and mortgage loans under forward purchase agreements at fair value are discount rate, home price projections, voluntary prepayment speeds and default speeds. Significant changes in any of those inputs in isolation could result in a significant change to the loans’ fair value measurement. Increases in home price projections are generally accompanied by an increase in voluntary prepayment speeds.

Following is a quantitative summary of key inputs used in the valuation of mortgage loans at fair value:

	Range (Weighted Average)
Key Inputs	September 30, 2012	December 31, 2011
Mortgage loans at fair value
Discount rate	9.2% - 22.1%	9.1% - 20.7%

Derivative Financial Instruments

The Company estimates the fair value of an interest rate lock commitment based on quoted Agency MBS prices, its estimate of the fair value of the MSRs it expects to receive in the sale of the loans and the probability that the mortgage loan will fund within the terms of the interest rate lock commitment.

The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Company’s interest rate lock commitments are the pull-through rate—the percentage of loans that the Company ultimately funds as a percentage of the commitments it has made—and the MSR component of the Company’s estimate of the value of the mortgage loans it has committed to purchase. Significant changes in any of those inputs, in isolation, could result in a significant change in fair value measurement. Changes in these assumptions are generally inversely correlated as increasing interest rates have a negative effect on the fair value of mortgage loans and a positive effect on the fair value of MSRs that are created in the sale of such mortgage loans.

Following is a quantitative summary of key unobservable inputs used in the valuation of interest rate lock commitments:

	September 30, 2012	December 31, 2011
Key Inputs	Range (Weighted Average)
Pull-through rate	54.7% - 100.0%	55.0% - 98.0%
	(87.4%)	(78.0%)
MSR value expressed as:
Servicing fee multiple	1.75% - 4.35%	2.81% - 5.74%
	(4.24%)	(5.23%)
Percentage of unpaid principal balance	0.44% - 1.09%	0.70% - 1.43%
	(1.06%)	(1.31%)

The Company estimates the fair value of commitments to sell loans based on quoted MBS prices. The Company estimates the fair value of the MBS options and futures it purchases and sells based on observed interest rate volatilities in the MBS market. The Company estimates the fair value of its MBS interest rate swaptions based on quoted market prices.

Real Estate Acquired in Settlement of Loans

REO is measured based on its fair value on a nonrecurring basis and is categorized as a “Level 3” financial statement item. Fair value of REO is determined by using a current estimate of value from a broker’s price opinion or a full appraisal, or the price given in a current contract of sale.

REO values are reviewed by PCM’s staff appraisers when the Company obtains multiple indications of value and there is a significant difference among the values received. PCM’s staff appraisers will attempt to resolve such difference. In circumstances where the appraisers are not able to generate adequate data to support a value conclusion, the staff appraisers will order an additional appraisal to resolve the property’s value.

Mortgage Servicing Rights

MSRs are categorized as “Level 3” financial statement items. The Company uses a discounted cash flow approach to estimate the fair value of MSRs. The key assumptions used in the estimation of the fair value of MSRs include prepayment and default rates of the underlying loans, the applicable discount rate, and cost to service loans. The key assumptions used in the Company’s discounted cash flow model are based on market factors which management believes are consistent with assumptions and data used by market participants valuing similar MSRs. The results of the estimates of fair value of MSRs are reported to the Manager’s valuation committee as part of their review and approval of monthly valuation results.

The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Company’s MSRs are pricing spreads, prepayment speeds (or life) and annual per-loan cost of servicing. Significant changes to any of those inputs in isolation could result in a significant change in the MSR fair value measurement. Changes in these key assumptions are not necessarily directly related.

Following are the key inputs used in determining the fair value of MSRs at the time of initial recognition:

The Company applies a pricing spread to the United States Dollar LIBOR curve for purposes of discounting cash flows relating to MSRs acquired as proceeds from the sale of mortgage loans and purchased MSRs not backed by pools of distressed mortgage loans.

(2) Prepayment speed is measured using Life Total CPR.

The preceding sensitivity analyses are limited in that they were performed as of a particular point in time; only contemplate the movements in the indicated variables; do not incorporate changes in the variables in relation to other variables; are subject to the accuracy of various models and inputs used; and do not take into account other factors that would affect the Company’s overall financial performance in such scenarios, including operational adjustments made by the Manager to account for changing circumstances. For these reasons, the preceding estimates should not be viewed as earnings forecasts.

Securities Sold Under Agreements to Repurchase

Fair value of securities sold under agreements to repurchase is based on the accrued cost of the agreements, which approximates the agreements’ fair values, due to the agreements’ short maturities and variable interest rates.

(1) The amount the Company is able to borrow under loan repurchase agreements is tied to the fair value of unencumbered mortgage loans eligible to secure those agreements and the Company’s ability to fund the agreements’ margin requirements relating to the collateral sold.

The repurchase agreements collateralized by loans have a weighted average remaining term of approximately 6.0 months at September 30, 2012. Following is a summary of maturities of repurchase agreements by maturity date:

Remaining Maturity at September 30, 2012	Balance
	(in thousands)
Within 30 days	$	—
Over 30 to 90 days		56,094
Over 90 days to 180 days		—
Over 180 days to 1 year		218,091
	$	274,185

The amount at risk (the fair value of the assets pledged plus the related margin deposit, less the amount advanced by the counterparty and accrued interest) relating to the Company’s mortgage loans at fair value sold under agreements to repurchase is summarized by counterparty below as of September 30, 2012:

Counterparty	Amount at risk		Weighted-average repurchase agreement maturity
	(in thousands)
Citibank, N.A	$	622,674	April 19, 2013
Credit Suisse First Boston Mortgage Capital LLC	$	18,569	June 5, 2013
Wells Fargo Bank, N.A	$	71,495	December 28, 2012

The Company is subject to margin calls during the period the agreements are outstanding and therefore may be required to repay a portion of the borrowings before the respective agreements mature if the value (as determined by the applicable lender) of the loans securing those agreements decreases. As of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the Company had $452,000 and $471,000, respectively, on deposit with its loan repurchase agreement counterparties. Margin deposits are included in Other assets in the consolidated balance sheets.

Note 3—Transactions with Related Parties

The Company is managed externally by PCM under the terms of a management agreement that expires on August 4, 2013 and will continue to be automatically renewed for a one-year term on each anniversary date thereafter unless previously terminated. The management agreement provides for an annual review of PCM’s performance under the management agreement by the Company’s independent trustees. PMT’s board of trustees reviews the Company’s financial results, policy compliance and strategic direction.

As more fully described in the Company’s Annual Report, certain of the underwriting costs incurred in the Company’s initial public offering (“IPO”) were paid on PMT’s behalf by PCM and a portion of the underwriting discount was deferred by agreement with the underwriters of the offering. PMT will reimburse PCM the underwriting costs as discussed in Note 25—Shareholders’ Equity.

PMT pays PCM a base management fee and may pay a performance incentive fee, both payable quarterly and in arrears.

Following is a summary of management fee expense and the related liability, included in Payable to affiliates, recorded by the Company for the periods presented:

The management fees are more fully described in Note 4—Transactions with Related Parties to the Company’s Annual Report. Effective May 16, 2012, the Company amended its management agreement with PCM to change the way shareholders’ equity is measured for purposes of calculating the base component of its management fee. Previously, the measure of shareholders’ equity excluded unrealized gains, losses or other non-cash items reflected in the Company’s financial statements. The management agreement was amended to base the management fee on shareholders’ equity computed using U.S. GAAP. The method of measuring the performance incentive fee was not changed. The purpose of the amendment was to better align the Manager’s base management fee with the Company’s investment strategy, which, in the pursuit of attractive investment opportunities, has evolved to include nonperforming mortgage loans that generate unrealized gains and correspondent lending activity that produces non-cash income through the retention of MSRs created in the sales transactions. The amendment is expected to increase the amount of the base management fee payable by the Company to the Manager.

The Company, through its Operating Partnership, also has a loan servicing agreement with PLS. Servicing fee rates are based on the risk characteristics of the mortgage loans serviced and total servicing compensation is established at levels that management believes are competitive with those charged by other servicers or specialty servicers, as applicable.

Servicing fee rates for nonperforming loans range between 30 and 100 basis points per year on the unpaid principal balance of the mortgage loans serviced on the Company’s behalf. PLS is also entitled to certain customary market-based fees and charges, including boarding and deboarding fees, liquidation and disposition fees, assumption, modification and origination fees and late charges, as well as interest on funds on deposit in custodial accounts. In the event PLS either effects a refinancing of a loan on the Company’s behalf and not through a third party lender and the resulting loan is readily saleable, or originates a loan to facilitate the disposition of real estate that the Company has acquired in settlement of a loan, PLS is entitled to receive market-based fees and compensation from the Company.

PLS, on behalf of the Company, currently participates in HAMP (and other similar mortgage loan modification programs), which establishes standard loan modification guidelines for “at risk” homeowners and provides incentive payments to certain participants, including loan servicers, for achieving modifications and successfully remaining in the program. The loan servicing agreement entitles PLS to retain any incentive payments made to it and to which it is entitled under HAMP; provided, however, that with respect to any such incentive payments paid to PLS under HAMP in connection with a mortgage loan modification for which the Company previously paid PLS a modification fee, PLS shall reimburse the Company an amount equal to the lesser of such modification fee or such incentive payments.

In connection with the MSRs acquired in the Company’s correspondent lending business, through which the Company acquires mortgage loans originated by correspondent lenders for resale to the government-sponsored agencies such as the Federal National Mortgage Association (“Fannie Mae”) and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“FHLMC”) (Fannie Mae and FHLMC, along with the Government National Mortgage Association (“GNMA”) are each referred to as an “Agency” and, collectively, as the “Agencies”) and other investors, PLS is entitled to base subservicing fees, which range from 4 to 20 basis points per year of the unpaid principal balance of such loans, and other customary market-based fees and charges as described above.

Pursuant to the terms of a mortgage banking services agreement, PLS also provides certain mortgage banking services, including fulfillment and disposition-related services, to the Company for a fulfillment fee based on a percentage of the unpaid principal balance of the mortgage loans sold to non-affiliates where the Company is approved or licensed to sell to such non-affiliate. The fulfillment fee for such services is currently 50 basis points.

The Company is not an approved issuer of GNMA securities and therefore is not able to sell government-guaranteed or insured loans into such securities. As a result, the Company and PLS have agreed that PLS will fulfill and purchase the government-guaranteed or insured loans it acquires from correspondents. This arrangement has enabled the Company to compete with other correspondent lenders that purchase both government and conventional loans. For these government-guaranteed or insured loans, the Company does not pay a fulfillment fee, but collects interest income and a sourcing fee of three basis points for each mortgage loan it purchases from a correspondent and sells to PLS for ultimate disposition to GNMA.

Following is a summary of correspondent lending activity between the Company and PLS for the periods presented:

Note 20—Real Estate Acquired in Settlement of Loans Financed Under Agreements to Repurchase

Following is a summary of financial information relating to REO financed under agreements to repurchase as of and for the periods presented:

Total interest expense	$	293		$	279		$	989		$	319

(1) The amount the Company is able to borrow under REO repurchase agreements is tied to the fair value of unencumbered REO eligible for contribution to the subsidiary securing those agreements and the Company’s ability to fund the agreements’ margin requirements relating to the underlying collateral.

(2) Weighted-average interest rate during the period excludes the effect of amortization of debt issuance costs of $125,000 and $375,000 during the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2012, respectively, and $125,000 and $150,000 during the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2011, respectively.

The repurchase agreement pursuant to which the Company finances REO has a remaining term of approximately 8.3 months at September 30, 2012.

The amount at risk (the fair value of the assets pledged plus the related margin deposit, less the amount advanced by the counterparty and accrued interest) relating to the Company’s REO held in a consolidated subsidiary, the stock of which is pledged to secure agreements to repurchase, is summarized by counterparty below as of September 30, 2012:

Counterparty	Amount at risk		Weighted-average repurchase agreement maturity
	(in thousands)
Credit Suisse First Boston Mortgage Capital LLC	$	12,419		June 5, 2013

The Company is subject to margin calls during the period the agreements are outstanding and therefore may be required to repay a portion of the borrowings before the agreements mature if the value (as determined by the applicable lender) of the underlying REOs decreases.
