Walker & Dunlop Servicing Portfolio Surpasses $40 Billion Milestone

Bethesda, MD – July 29, 2014 – Walker & Dunlop, Inc. (NYSE: WD) (“the Company”) announced today that its loan servicing portfolio crossed over the $40 billion mark. The portfolio, comprised of over 4,300 commercial loans from across the United States, has an average loan term of over ten years with 84 percent of the servicing fees protected from the risk of prepayment through make-whole requirements. The mortgage servicing rights related to this portfolio had a fair value of $432 million at June 30, 2014.

Walker & Dunlop’s servicing portfolio has grown 473 percent since the end of 2008 due to strong organic loan originations as well as the acquisition of assets of Column Guaranteed LLC in 2009 and the acquisition of CWCapital LLC in 2012. Walker & Dunlop ended 2013 as the 8th largest commercial loan servicer in the country per the Mortgage Bankers Association.

“This is a huge milestone for our Company,” commented Chairman and CEO Willy Walker. “Servicing generates extremely stable, long-term revenue streams. We established a goal of generating 50 percent or more of our revenue from servicing and asset management fees by the end of 2017, and crossing the $40 billion mark is a significant step in achieving that goal. I would like to thank our servicing and asset management teams for their fantastic efforts and expertise that have allowed us to grow this portfolio dramatically while maintaining exceedingly low loan losses.”
