HOME LOAN SERVICING SOLUTIONS, LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Dollars in thousands unless otherwise stated, except share data)

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Organization

Home Loan Servicing Solutions, Ltd. and its wholly owned subsidiaries (collectively referred to throughout as “HLSS”, “us”, “our”, “we” or the “Company”) focus on acquiring mortgage servicing rights and the related servicing advances, Loans held for investment and other residential mortgage-related assets ("Residential Mortgage Assets").

Basis of Presentation and Use of Estimates

We prepared the accompanying unaudited Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with the instructions of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) to Form 10-Q for interim financial statements. In our opinion, the accompanying unaudited financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring accruals, necessary for a fair presentation. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires that we make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates. Material estimates that are particularly significant relate to our fair value measurements of Notes receivable – Rights to MSRs and of Loans held for investment.

Principles of Consolidation

Our financial statements include the accounts of Home Loan Servicing Solutions, Ltd. and its wholly owned subsidiaries as well as four variable interest entities (“VIE”) of which we are the primary beneficiary. We eliminate intercompany accounts and transactions in consolidation.

We evaluate each special purpose entity (“SPE”) for classification as a VIE. When a SPE meets the definition of a VIE and we determine that HLSS is the primary beneficiary, we include the SPE in our Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Our Match funded advances are in two SPEs along with related Match funded liabilities (the "Match Funded Advances SPEs"). We determined that these SPEs are VIEs of which we are the primary beneficiaries. The accounts of these SPEs are included in our Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Match funded advances on loans serviced for others result from our transfers of residential loan servicing advances to SPEs in exchange for cash. The SPEs issue debt supported by collections on the transferred advances. We made these transfers under the terms of our advance facility agreements. These transfers do not qualify for sale accounting because we retain control over the transferred assets. As a result, we account for these transfers as financings and classify the transferred advances on our Interim Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as Match funded advances and the related liabilities as Match funded liabilities. We use collections on the Match funded advances pledged to the SPEs to repay principal and to pay interest and the expenses of the SPEs. Holders of the debt issued by the SPEs can look only to the assets of the entity itself for satisfaction of the debt and have no recourse against HLSS.

Our Loans held for investment are in two SPEs along with related Other borrowings (the "Mortgage Loans SPEs"). We determined that these SPEs are VIEs of which we are the primary beneficiaries. The accounts of these SPEs are included in our Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Loans held for investment are transferred to SPEs in exchange for cash, and the SPEs issue debt collateralized by these loans. These transfers do not qualify for sale accounting because we retain control over the transferred assets. As a result, we account for these transfers as financings and classify the transferred loans on our Interim Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as Loans held for investment and the related liabilities as Other borrowings. We use collections on the Loans held for investment pledged to the SPEs to repay principal and to pay interest and the expenses of the SPEs. Holders of the debt issued by the SPEs can look beyond the assets of the SPEs for satisfaction of the debt and therefore have recourse against HLSS. It is our expectation that the

7

cash flows of the SPEs will be sufficient to meet all claims of the debt holders. HLSS is responsible for making any principal or interest payments to the debt holders not covered by the cash flows of the SPEs.

The following tables summarize the assets and liabilities of our consolidated SPEs at the dates indicated:

At June 30, 2014	Match Funded Advance SPEs		Mortgage Loans SPEs		Total

(1) Related party receivables principally include Match funded advance collections that were in-transit to pay down our Match funded liabilities as of each presented period. See Note 17 for more information about our Related party receivables.

(2) Other assets principally include debt service accounts, debt issuance costs and advances we financed as part of asset acquisitions. See Note 6 for more information about our Other assets.

(3) Other borrowings include the carrying value of our borrowings to acquire Loans held for investment. See Note 8 for more information about our Other borrowings.

Loans Held for Investment and Related Accrued Income

Loans held for investment consist of residential mortgage loans acquired from others. The Company does not originate loans. Each acquired loan is evaluated at acquisition to determine if the loan is impaired at the time of acquisition.

The Company evaluates purchased loans that are not deemed impaired upon acquisition in accordance with the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") ASC 310-20, Receivables - Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs. The fair value premium or discount on these loans is amortized into interest income over the weighted average life of the loans using a level yield method. Interest income is accrued at the rate specified in the individual loan agreements based on the unpaid principal balance ("UPB").

8

For loans accounted for under ASC 310-20, we periodically evaluate whether all contractual payments will be collected as scheduled according to the contractual terms. We incorporate the probable recovery of such payments resulting from Federal Housing Administration ("FHA") insurance in this analysis, as applicable. We evaluate these loans on a periodic basis to ensure a carrying value of the lower of cost or fair value. We recognized no loan impairments for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014.

We periodically evaluate whether our Loans held for investment, including individual loans and pools of loans, should be placed on non-accrual status. All of our Loans held for investment remained on accrual status for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014.

The Company evaluates purchased impaired loans in accordance with the provisions of ASC 310-30, Receivables - Loans and Debt Securities Acquired with Deteriorated Credit Quality. Purchased loans are considered impaired if there is evidence of credit deterioration since origination and if it is probable that not all contractually required payments will be collected.

For impaired loans accounted for under ASC 310-30, we continue to estimate cash flows expected to be collected, adjusted for expected prepayments, on pools of loans sharing common risk characteristics which are treated in the aggregate when applying various valuation techniques. We evaluate at each balance sheet date whether the present value of our pools of loans determined using the effective interest rates has decreased and, if so, recognize a provision for loan loss. For any increases in cash flows expected to be collected, we reduce any loss provisions previously recorded, if applicable, and then adjust the amount of accretable yield recognized on a prospective basis over the pool’s remaining life. We recognized no provisions for loan loss nor any adjustments to the amount of the accretable yield for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

AccountingStandards Update (“ASU”) 2013-11. This ASU provides explicit guidance on the financial statement presentation of an unrecognized tax benefit when a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss or a tax credit exists. Previously, there was diversity in practice, and this ASU is expected to eliminate that diversity in practice. The amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2013. Our adoption of this standard effective January 1, 2014, did not have a material impact on our Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

ASU 2014-04. The objective of this ASU to reduce diversity by clarifying when an in substance repossession or foreclosure occurs; that is, when a creditor should be considered to have received physical possession of residential real estate property collateralizing a consumer mortgage loan such that the loan receivable should be derecognized and the real estate property recognized. The amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2014. We do not expect these amendments to have a material impact on our Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

ASU 2014-06. This ASU providestechnical corrections and improvements to Accounting Standards Codification glossary terms. Our adoption of this standard, effective March 14, 2014, did not have a material impact on our Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Certain disclosures included in the Company’s Annual Report are not required to be included on an interim basis in the Company’s Quarterly Reports on Forms 10-Q. The Company has condensed or omitted these disclosures. Therefore, this Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the Company’s amended Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2013, which was filed with the SEC on August 18, 2014.

2. ASSET ACQUISITIONS

On March 3, 2014, we acquired Government National Mortgage Association ("GNMA") loans with UPB of $549,411 from Ocwen Financial Corporation (together with its subsidiaries, collectively "Ocwen"). Because these loans earn interest at a rate that is higher than current market rates, the loans were purchased at a premium to par, resulting in a total purchase price of $556,618. We amortize the purchase price premium over the expected life of the portfolio using the interest method of accounting. These loans are insured by the FHA, making the collectability of the entire balance of these loans reasonably assured. We account for these GNMA loans as Loans held for investment.

Ocwen initially acquired these loans through the GNMA early buy-out (“EBO”) program, which allows servicers of federally insured or guaranteed loans to buy delinquent loans from the applicable loan securitization pools. We also financed the GNMA

9

EBO advances related to the GNMA EBO loans, and we account for this arrangement as a financing transaction because Ocwen retained title and all other rights and rewards associated with the GNMA EBO advances. Collectively, the purchase of GNMA EBO loans and financing of the related advances are referred to as the “GNMA EBO Transaction.”

Our GNMA EBO loans are in a Mortgage Loans SPE along with the related financing facility (the "EBO Facility"), which is more fully described in Note 8. The accounts of this SPE are included in our Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. These transfers to the SPE do not qualify for sale accounting because we retain control over the transferred assets. As a result, we account for these transfers as financings and classify the transferred GNMA EBO loans on our Interim Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as Loans held for investment and the related liabilities as Other borrowings. We use collections on the GNMA EBO loans pledged to the SPE to repay principal and to pay interest and the expenses of the entity. The holders of the debt issued by this SPE can look beyond the assets of the SPE for satisfaction of the debt and therefore have recourse against HLSS. It is our expectation that, since our GNMA EBO loans are insured by the FHA, the cash flows of this SPE will be sufficient to meet all claims of the debt holders. HLSS is responsible for making any principal or interest payments to the debt holders not covered by the cash flows of the SPE.

On June 27, 2014, HLSS purchased a portfolio of re-performing mortgage loans ("RPLs") from a third party seller with a UPB of $396,939 (the "RPL Transaction"). Because RPLs have historically experienced default conditions, are not insured by any agency and earn interest at a rate that is lower than current market rates, the loans were purchased at a discount of par equivalent to thirty percent of UPB, resulting in a total purchase price of $276,248. In accordance with ASC 310-30, we will recognize the excess cash flows over the purchase price as interest income on a level yield basis.

Ocwen serviced the RPLs prior to the RPL Transaction, and Ocwen remains the servicer subsequent to the RPL Transaction.

Our RPLs are in a Mortgage Loans SPE along with the related financing facility (the “RPL Facility”), which is more fully described in Note 8. The accounts of this SPE are included in our Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. The transfers to the SPE do not qualify for sale accounting because we retain control over the transferred assets. As a result, we account for these transfers as financing and classify the transferred RPLs on our Interim Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as Loans held for investment and the related liabilities as Other borrowings. We use collections on the RPLs pledged to the SPE to repay principal and to pay interest and the expenses of the entity. The holders of the debt issued by this SPE can look beyond the assets of the SPE for satisfaction of the debt and therefore have recourse against HLSS. It is our expectation that the cash flows of this SPE will be sufficient to meet all claims of the debt holders. HLSS is responsible for making any principal or interest payments to the debt holders not covered by the cash flows of the SPE.

3. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

We estimate fair value based on a hierarchy that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs. Observable inputs are inputs that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. The fair value hierarchy prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques into three broad levels and gives the highest priority to Level 1 inputs and the lowest to Level 3 inputs.

The three broad categories are:

• Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

• Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument; and

• Level 3: Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

Where available, we utilize quoted market prices or observable inputs rather than unobservable inputs to determine fair value. We classify assets and liabilities in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

We describe the methodologies that we use and key assumptions that we make to assess the fair value of instruments in more detail below.

Notes Receivable – Rights to MSRs

We established the value of the Notes receivable – Rights to MSRs based on an appraisal prepared with the assistance of an independent valuation firm. This appraisal is prepared on a quarterly basis. Significant inputs into the valuation include the following:

• Discount rates reflecting the risk of earning the future income streams from the Notes receivable – Rights to MSRs ranging from 15% to 22%;

• Interest rate used for calculating the cost of financing servicing advances of 1-Month LIBOR plus 3.50%;

• Mortgage loan prepayment projections ranging from 12% to 28% of the related mortgage lifetime projected prepayment rate; and

• Delinquency rate projections ranging from 15% to 35% of the aggregate unpaid balance of the underlying mortgage loans.

11

The independent valuation firm reviewed the collateral attributes and the historical payment performance of the underlying mortgage servicing portfolio and compared them with similar mortgage servicing portfolios and with standard industry mortgage performance benchmarks to arrive at the assumptions set forth above. The selected collateral attributes and performance comparisons utilized were the voluntary prepayment performance, delinquency and foreclosure performance, operational cost comparison, average loan balance, weighted average coupon and note rate distribution, loan product type classification, geographic distribution and servicing advance behavior.

The unobservable inputs that have the most significant effect on the fair value of Notes receivable – Rights to MSRs are the mortgage loan prepayment rate projections and delinquency rate projections; however, any significant increase (decrease) in discount rates, interest rates, mortgage loan prepayment projections or delinquency rate projections, each in isolation, would result in a substantially lower (higher) valuation.

Derivative Financial Instruments

Our derivatives are not exchange-traded, and therefore quoted market prices or other observable inputs are not available. The fair value of our interest rate swap agreements is based on certain information provided by third-party pricing sources. Third-party valuations are derived from proprietary models based on inputs that include yield curves and contractual terms such as fixed interest rates and payment dates. We have not adjusted the information obtained from the third-party pricing sources; however, we review this information to ensure that it provides a reasonable basis for estimating fair value. Our review is designed to identify information that appears stale, information that has changed significantly from the prior period and other indicators that the information may not be accurate. We determined that potential credit and counterparty risks had an immaterial impact on the valuation of our derivatives. See Note 11 for additional information on our derivative financial instruments.

The following table shows the effect on the fair value of the Notes receivable – Rights to MSRs assuming adverse changes to certain key assumptions used in valuing these assets at June 30, 2014, and December 31, 2013:

	Discount Rate			Prepayment Speeds			Delinquency Rates
	100 bps adverse change			10% adverse change			10% adverse change
At June 30, 2014:
Notes receivable – Rights to MSRs	$	(12,527	)	$	(21,521	)	$	(68,579	)

	Discount Rate			Prepayment Speeds			Delinquency Rates

At December 31, 2013:
Notes receivable – Rights to MSRs	$	(12,988	)	$	(22,537	)	$	(72,560	)

This sensitivity analysis above assumes a change is made to one key input while holding all other inputs constant. As many of these inputs are correlated, a change in one input will likely impact other inputs, which would ultimately impact the overall valuation.

The following table provides additional quantitative information on our significant inputs used for valuing our Notes receivable – Rights to MSRs as of June 30, 2014, and December 31, 2013, respectively:

At June 30, 2014:

Match Funded Advances

The carrying value of our Match funded advances approximates fair value. This is because our Match funded advances have no stated maturity, generally are realized within a relatively short period of time and do not bear interest. The fair value measurements for Match funded advances are categorized as Level 3.

Loans Held for Investment

The fair value estimate of these loans was determined by using internal cash flow models that require us to make assumptions regarding various inputs, including default rates, delinquency rates, interest rates and prepayment speeds. Additionally, we make assumptions related to severity for our RPLs. The fair value measurements for Loans held for investment are categorized as Level 3.

Match Funded Liabilities

Match funded liabilities include various series of term notes, variable funding notes and other fixed rate liabilities. The fair value estimate of the Company’s term notes and other fixed rate liabilities was determined by using broker quotes. We concluded that no adjustments were required to the quoted prices. The level of trading, both in number of trades and amount of term notes traded, is at a level that the Company believes broker quotes to be a reasonable representation of the current fair market value of the term notes. All other Match funded liabilities are short term in nature, and the carrying value generally approximates the fair value. The fair value measurements for Match funded liabilities are categorized as Level 3.

Other Borrowings

Other borrowings include a senior secured term loan facility, EBO Facility, RPL Facility and a servicing advance note facility (the "Note Facility"). The fair value estimate of the senior secured term loan facility was determined by using broker quotes. We concluded that no adjustments were required to the quoted price. Trading is at a level that the Company believes broker quotes to be a reasonable representation of the current fair market value of this facility. The EBO Facility, the RPL Facility and the Note Facility are short term in nature, and the carrying values generally approximate the fair values. The fair value measurements for these facilities are categorized as Level 3.

4. MATCH FUNDED ADVANCES

Match funded advances on residential loans we service for others are comprised of the following at the dates indicated:

	June 30, 2014		December 31, 2013
Principal and interest advances	$	2,619,367	$	2,632,092
Taxes and insurance advances	2,617,730		2,723,390
Corporate advances	896,661		1,032,299
	$	6,133,758	$	6,387,781

5. LOANS HELD FOR INVESTMENT

Our Loans held for investment relate to GNMA EBO loans and RPLs, which are our only classes of Loans held for investment.

	June 30, 2014		December 31, 2013
GNMA EBO loans	$	526,253	$	—
RPLs	275,838		—
Loans held for investment	$	802,091	$	—

Upon acquisition, the Company reviews Loans held for investment to determine if there is evidence of credit deterioration since origination in accordance with the provisions of ASC 310-30, Loans and Debt Securities Acquired with Deteriorated Credit

15

Quality. Any loan acquired is considered impaired if there is evidence of credit deterioration since origination and if it is probable that not all contractually required payments will be collected.

We account for acquired Loans held for investment that are not deemed to be impaired at acquisition under ASC 310-20, Receivables - Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs.

GNMA EBO Loans

We account for our GNMA EBO loans under ASC 310-20, Receivables - Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs. In accordance with ASC 310-20-30-5, these loans are recorded at the UPB plus a purchase premium, which is the amount we paid to purchase these loans. The purchase premium is amortized into interest income using the interest method of accounting. These loans are FHA insured, making the collectability of the entire balance reasonably assured. We evaluate whether all contractual payments will be collected as scheduled according to contractual terms, including the probable recovery of such payments from FHA insurance. There were no allowances for loan losses related to the GNMA EBO loans at June 30, 2014.

See Note 2, Asset Acquisitions, for further discussion the GNMA EBO Transaction.

RPLs

We account for our RPLs under ASC 310-30, Loans and Debt Securities Acquired with Deteriorated Credit Quality. The Company evaluated all of the loans purchased in the RPL Transaction in accordance with the provisions of ASC 310-30, and all RPLs were deemed to be impaired loans at acquisition. The RPLs are not insured against loss, and the borrowers, all of which have been previously delinquent, may be more likely to be in economic distress, to have become unemployed or bankrupt or to otherwise be unable or unwilling to make payments when due. Also, a portion of these loans feature future step-ups in the required payment.

The RPLs were grouped into pools based on common risk characteristics, and the pools were recorded at their estimated fair values which incorporated estimated credit losses at the acquisition date. The RPL pools are systematically reviewed by the Company to determine the risk of losses that may exceed those identified at the time of the acquisition. No individual RPLs were classified as nonperforming assets at June 30, 2014 as the loans are accounted for on a pooled basis, and the pools are considered to be performing. No RPL pools evaluated by the Company were determined to have experienced impairment in the estimated credit quality or cash flows since acquisition.

The amount of the estimated cash flows expected to be received from the RPL pools in excess of the fair values recorded for the RPL pools is referred to as the accretable yield. The accretable yield is recognized as interest income over the estimated lives of the RPL pools. To date, the Company has made no adjustments to the accretable yield.

Changes in the carrying amount of the accretable yield for RPL pools were as follows for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014:

	Accretable Yield			Carrying Amount
Beginning balance	$	—		$	—
Additions	146,885			276,248
Accretable yield adjustments	—			—
Accretion	(159		)	159
Payments and other reductions, net	—			(569		)
Ending balance	$	146,726		$	275,838

The outstanding balance of RPLs, including outstanding principal, interest, fees, penalties and other amounts due, was $397.4 million at June 30, 2014.

At the acquisition date of the RPLs, the contractually required payments receivable was $622.1 million, and the fair value was $276.2 million. The cash flows expected to be collected were $423.1 million at the acquisition date.

See Note 2, Asset Acquisitions, for further discussion the RPL Transaction.

(1) Each term note and variable funding note issuance has four classes, an A, B, C, and D class, with the exception of the Series 2014 T3 Term Notes which have only an A and B class. The Series 2014 T3 Class B Term Notes may be exchanged for notes in three separate classes: BX, CX and DX.

(2) The weighted average interest rate at June 30, 2014, was 1.85%. We pay interest monthly.

(3) The amortization date is the date on which the revolving period ends under each advance facility note and repayment of the outstanding balance must begin if the note is not renewed or extended. The maturity date is the due date for all outstanding balances. After the amortization date, all collections that represent the repayment of Match funded advances pledged to the facilities must be applied to reduce the balance of the note outstanding, and any new advances are ineligible to be financed.

(4) Our unused borrowing capacity is available to us if we have additional eligible collateral to pledge and meet other borrowing conditions. We pay a 0.50% or 0.625% fee on the unused borrowing capacity, which varies by facility.

(5) On January 17, 2014, we completed the issuance of $600,000 of one-year and $200,000 of three-years term notes. On June 18, 2014, we completed the issuance of $400,000 of four-year term notes. We retained $37,000 of these notes.

(6) These Variable Funding Notes were amended on February 14, 2014, to extend the amortization and maturity dates by a year and to reduce the interest rate spreads compared to December 31, 2013. Variable Funding Note balances fluctuate based on Match funded advance activity and our ability to issue fixed rate term notes.

(7) The Class A Term Money Market Fund Note and Class A Draw Money Market Fund Note have a combined maximum borrowing capacity of $265,000. By design, the Class A Term Money Market Fund Note balance is reduced at scheduled times and there is an equally offsetting increase to the Class A Draw Money Market Fund Note. The combined balance of these notes wasequal to$265,000atJune 30, 2014, andDecember 31, 2013. The amortization date for the Class A Term Money Market Fund Note represents the commencement date for scheduled repayments.

9. ORDINARY SHARES

Increases in the number of ordinary shares issued during the six months ended June 30, 2014, and June 30, 2013, are represented in the table below:

	2014	2013
Ordinary shares issued - beginning balance	71,016,771	55,884,718
Issuance of new ordinary shares	—	15,132,053
Ordinary shares issued – ending balance	71,016,771	71,016,771

On January 22, 2013, the underwriters exercised a portion of their over-allotment option from our December 24, 2012, offering of ordinary shares in the amount of 970,578 ordinary shares. We received net proceeds of $17,633 from the over-allotment exercise.

On June 26, 2013, we issued 13,000,000 of our ordinary shares, and an additional 1,161,475 of ordinary shares were issued in connection with the exercise of the underwriters' over-allotment option. The total gross proceeds from the issuance of these additional shares to HLSS were $325,714. After deducting underwriting discounts, commissions and expenses payable by HLSS, the aggregate net proceeds we received were $315,918.

10. EARNINGS PER SHARE ("EPS")

Basic EPS is computed by dividing reported net income by weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during each period. Diluted EPS is computed by dividing reported net income by the weighted average ordinary shares and all potential dilutive ordinary shares outstanding during the period.

20

The following table presents the computation of per share earnings for the three and six months ended June 30:

	Three months				Six months
(In thousands, except per share data)	2014		2013		2014		2013
Net income	$	50,660	$	43,826	$	115,020	$	71,911
Weighted average ordinary shares outstanding	71,016,771		57,633,399		71,016,771		57,133,888
Weighted average potential dilutive ordinary shares	—		—		—		—
Average diluted ordinary shares	71,016,771		57,633,399		71,016,771		57,133,888
Basic earnings per share	$	0.71	$	0.76	$	1.62	$	1.26
Diluted earnings per share	$	0.71	$	0.76	$	1.62	$	1.26
Stock options excluded from the computation of diluted EPS:
Anti-dilutive (1)	640,000		—		640,000		—
Market-based (2)	640,000		—		640,000		—

(1) These stock options were anti-dilutive because their exercise price was greater than the average market price of our stock.

(2) Shares that are issuable upon the achievement of certain performance criteria related to our stock price and an annualized rate of return to investors. Note 14 provides details of our share-based compensation.

11. DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

We are party to interest rate swap agreements that we recognize on our Interim Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet at fair value within Other assets and Other liabilities. On the date we entered into the interest rate swap agreements, we designated and documented them as hedges of the variable cash flows payable for floating rate interest expense on our borrowings (cash flow hedge). To qualify for hedge accounting, a derivative must be highly effective at reducing the risk associated with the hedged exposure. In addition, the documentation must include the risk management objective and strategy. On a quarterly basis we assess and document the derivatives’ effectiveness and expected effectiveness in offsetting the changes in the fair value or the cash flows of the hedged items. To assess effectiveness, we use statistical methods, such as regression analysis, as well as nonstatistical methods including dollar-offset analysis. For a cash flow hedge, to the extent that it is effective, we record changes in the estimated fair value of the derivative in accumulated other comprehensive income ("AOCI"). We subsequently reclassify these changes in estimated fair value to net income in the same period that the hedged transaction affects earnings and in the same financial statement category as the hedged item.

If a derivative instrument in a cash flow hedge is terminated or the hedge designation is removed, we reclassify related amounts in AOCI into earnings in the same period during which the cash flows that were hedged affect earnings. In a period where we determine that it is probable that a hedged forecasted transaction will not occur, such as variable-rate interest payments on debt that has been repaid in advance, any related amounts in AOCI are reclassified into earnings in that period.

Because our current derivative agreements are not exchange-traded, we are exposed to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the counterparty to the agreement. We control this risk through counterparty credit monitoring procedures including financial analysis, dollar limits and other monitoring procedures. The notional amounts of our contracts do not represent our exposure to credit loss. See Note 3 for additional information regarding our use of derivatives.

Interest Rate Management

We executed a hedging strategy designed to mitigate the impact of changes in variable interest rates on the excess of interest rate sensitive liabilities over interest rate sensitive assets. We entered into interest rate swaps to hedge against the effects of a change in 1-Month LIBOR.

21

The following tables provide information about our interest rate swaps at June 30, 2014, and December 31, 2013, respectively:

(1) The effective date of the swap is the date from which monthly net settlements begin to be computed.

(2) Projected net settlements for the next twelve months total approximately $778 of payments to the counterparty.

(3) There was an unrealized pre-tax loss of $1,778 and $2,005 related to our interest rate swaps included in AOCI for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, and an unrealized pre-tax gains of $5,340 and $5,353 related to our interest rate swaps included in AOCI for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013. Given the current and expected effectiveness of our hedging arrangements, we do not expect any reclassifications from AOCI into earnings associated with hedging ineffectiveness related to these hedging arrangements during the next twelve months.

The following table summarizes our use of derivatives during the six months ended June 30:

	2014		2013
Notional balance at beginning of period	$	953,195	$	414,631
Additions	—		645,052

We recognize the right to reclaim cash collateral or the obligation to return cash collateral as part of our hedge agreements. At June 30, 2014, we have the right to reclaim cash collateral of $1,075 and are obligated to return cash collateral of $1,870 as part of our hedge agreements. At December 31, 2013, we had the right to reclaim cash collateral of $1,075 and were obligated to return cash collateral of $3,500 as part of our hedge agreements.

12. INTEREST INCOME

Interest Income – Notes Receivable – Rights to MSRs

Our primary source of revenue is the fees we are entitled to receive in connection with the servicing of mortgage loans. We account for these fees as interest income.

23

The following table shows how we calculated Interest income - notes receivable – Rights to MSRs for the three and six months ended June 30:

	Three Months						Six Months
	2014			2013			2014			2013
Servicing fees collected	$	185,690		$	128,699		$	374,847		$	230,957

Increase (decrease) in the fair value of Notes    receivable – Rights to MSRs	(4,025		)	2,588			—			2,588
	$	86,574		$	65,792		$	189,112		$	113,659

Interest Income – Other

Additional sources of revenue for us are the interest we earn on our GNMA EBO loans, interest we earn on our RPLs, financing of GNMA EBO and other advances and interest we earn on operating bank accounts and the custodial account balances related to the mortgage loans serviced that are not included in our Interim Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The following table shows our Interest income – other for the three and six months ended June 30:

	Three Months				Six Months
	2014		2013		2014		2013
Loan interest (1)	$	5,770	$	—	$	7,554	$	—
Advance financing interest (2)	952		—		1,154		—
Bank account interest	1,068		97		2,043		199
	$	7,790	$	97	$	10,751	$	199

(1) Represents interest earned at the stated note rate on each individual GNMA EBO loan, net of the amortization of the purchase premium on our GNMA EBO and other loans using the interest method of accounting, and the accretion of the accretable yield on our pools of RPLs using the interest method of accounting.

(2) Represents interest earned on servicing advance financing we provided to Ocwen.

13. INTEREST EXPENSE

The following table presents the components of Interest expense for the three and six months ended June 30:

	Three Months				Six Months
	2014		2013		2014		2013

14. SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION

On December 5, 2013, the Board of Directors of HLSS adopted the 2013 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), subject to the approval of the shareholders. At the Annual Meeting of Shareholders on May 13, 2014, the shareholders approved the Plan.

The Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee, which may authorize the award of options, restricted shares, share appreciation rights, performance awards or other share-based awards to our employees of an amount not exceeding 2,000,000

24

ordinary shares, in aggregate. Currently, other than share options with vesting terms, the Compensation Committee does not expect to grant any restricted shares, share appreciation rights, performance awards or other share-based awards under the Plan. Each option award under the Plan is, and will be, evidenced by a written award agreement between the participant and HLSS. The award agreement describes the award and states the terms and conditions to which the award is subject.

Outstanding share-based compensation currently consists of stock option grants that are a combination of service-based and market-based options.

Service-Based Options. These options are granted at fair value on the date of grant. The options generally vest evenly in four annual increments beginning with the first anniversary of the agreement date, and the options generally expire on the earlier of 10 years after the date of grant or following termination of service. A total of 640,000 service-based awards were outstanding at June 30, 2014.

Market-Based Options. These options are subject to market-based vesting. One-fourth of the options will vest immediately on the first date as of which both of the following market-based criteria have been met: i) the per share price must be equal to or exceed 1.25 times the strike price and ii) investors must achieve a 12.5% annualized rate of return from the agreement date based on the strike price and dividends received. Thereafter, the remaining options will vest evenly on each of the next three anniversaries of the initial date of vesting. A total of 640,000 market-based awards were outstanding at June 30, 2014.

Both Service-Based Options and Market-Based Options that are vested and outstanding will be entitled to receive payments equal to the amount of the then current dividend as if the underlying shares were issued at the ex-dividend date. No expense related to this feature was recognized during the period ending June 30, 2014.

The fair value of the Service-Based Options was determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, and a lattice (binomial) model was used to determine the fair value of the Market-Based Options using the following assumptions as of the grant date:

	For the six months ended June 30, 2014
	Black-Scholes		Binomial
Risk-free interest rate	2.13	%	0.13% - 3.23%
Expected stock price volatility	19.62	%	19.62	%
Expected dividend yield	7.82	%	7.82	%
Expected option life (in years)	6.5		2.7 - 3.5
Contractual life (in years)	10		10
Fair Value	$0.87 - $1.27		$0.53 - $1.43

Share-based compensation expense is recorded net of an estimated forfeiture rate of 4%.

A summary of option activity under the Plan for the six months ended June 30, 2014, is presented below.

	Shares	Weighted Average Exercise Price		Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Term (in years)	Aggregate Intrinsic Value (1)
Outstanding at December 31, 2013	—	$	—	0	$	—
Granted	1,280,000	22.90
Exercised	—	—
Forfeited or expired	—	—
Outstanding at June 30, 2014	1,280,000	$	22.90	9.5	$	—
Exercisable at June 30, 2014	—	$	—	0	$	—

(1) Intrinsic value represents the difference between the Company’s closing stock price and the exercise price multiplied by the number of options outstanding and exercisable at a price below that closing price.

25

The weighted-average grant-date fair value of options granted during 2014 is $0.75 per share. As of June 30, 2014, the Company has $0.8 million of total unrecognized compensation expense related to non-vested share option awards granted under the Plan. The total expense is expected to be recognized over the weighted-average requisite service period of 3.4 years. No shares vested during the period ended June 30, 2014.

No option awards, whether vested or non-vested, were outstanding for the six months ended June 30, 2013, and no option activity occurred during this period.

15. INCOME TAXES

Income taxes were provided for based upon the tax laws and rates in the countries in which we conduct operations and earn related income. Our effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, was 0.0% and 0.1% (0.1% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013). We are a Cayman Islands exempted company, and the Cayman Islands currently levies no taxes on individuals or corporations based upon profits, income, gains or appreciation.

The Company recognizes the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities. As of June 30, 2014, the Company did not have any unrecognized tax benefits related to the current period or any previous period. We recognize interest and penalties accrued on any unrecognized tax benefits as a component of income tax expense. We did not accrue interest or penalties associated with any unrecognized tax benefits, nor was any interest expense or penalty recognized during the period or in previous periods.

16. BUSINESS SEGMENT REPORTING

Our business strategy focuses on acquiring mortgage servicing rights and the related servicing advances, Loans held for investment and other residential mortgage-related assets. As of June 30, 2014, we operate a single reportable business segment that holds Residential Mortgage Assets.

17. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

We entered into various agreements with Ocwen and Altisource Portfolio Solutions, S.A. (“Altisource”) in connection with our Initial Public Offering on March 5, 2012. William C. Erbey, our founder and the Chairman of our Board of Directors, is also the Chairman of the Board of Directors of Ocwen and Altisource.

As the named servicer, Ocwen remains obligated to perform as servicer under the related pooling and servicing agreements ("PSAs"), and we are required to pay Ocwen a monthly fee for the servicing activities it performs. We are also required to purchase any servicing advances that Ocwen is required to make pursuant to such PSAs.

Ocwen is also the named servicer on the GNMA EBO loans and RPLs, and we are required to pay Ocwen a monthly fee for the servicing activities it performs.

On May 1, 2014, we financed servicing advances totaling $20,157 for Ocwen. We account for these receivables as Other assets in the Interim Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. We receive interest income on these receivables at a rate of 1-month LIBOR plus 550 bps. We record this interest income as Interest income – other in the Interim Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

26

In addition to the acquisition of Residential Mortgage Assets described in Note 2, the following table summarizes our transactions with Ocwen for the three and six months ended June 30:

	Three Months						Six Months

Servicing advances purchased from Ocwen in the    ordinary course of business	$	3,368,379		$	826,880		$	6,871,754		$	1,521,985

(1) Net servicing fees retained by HLSS are included in the Interim Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations as a component of Interest income. See Note 12 for additional information regarding our Interest income.

At June 30, 2014, as a result of servicing activities related to our Notes receivable – Right to MSRs, Ocwen owed us $6,131 for servicing fees collected but not remitted to us, and we owed Ocwen $1,576 for the subservicing fee earned by Ocwen in June 2014. Ocwen owed us $332 for interest accrued on financing of servicing advances as of June 30, 2014. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, we earned interest income of $6,563 and $8,549 as a result of the GNMA EBO Transaction with Ocwen ($0 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2013). Lastly, our Notes receivable – Rights to MSRs resulted from transactions with Ocwen.

20. RESTATEMENT

Subsequent to the filing of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013, (the “Original Form 10-K”), with the SEC on February 6, 2014, we determined that the Notes receivable - Rights to MSRs and related interest income were materially misstated due to the fact that we did not adjust the Notes receivable - Rights to MSRs to the best estimate of fair value and did not include the effect of such fair value adjustments in the application of the interest method in accounting for the Notes receivable - Rights to MSRs. As a result, the following financial statement amounts have been restated from amounts previously reported.

The following table summarizes the effects of the restatement on the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2013 (as restated on the Form 10-K/A filed on August 18, 2014).

INTRODUCTION

The following discussion of our results of operations and changes in financial condition and liquidity should be read in conjunction with our Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and the related notes, all included elsewhere in this report on Form 10-Q for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and within our Form 10-Q/A for the three months ended March 31, 2014, and 2013 Form 10-K/A.

The financial information included herein related to the 2013 consolidated financial statements has been restated for the effects of the adjustment described in Part I, Item I, “Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements - Note 20, Restatement”.

OVERVIEW

Strategic Priorities

Now in our third year of operations, we intend to continue to execute upon our chief objective, which is to acquire Residential Mortgage Assets. During the current period, we expanded our Residential Mortgage Asset portfolio by acquiring GNMA EBO loans from Ocwen, by financing additional servicing advances for Ocwen and by acquiring RPLs from a third party seller. In addition to our current asset classes, we may explore opportunities for investments in other Residential Mortgage Assets that we believe will provide an attractive risk-adjusted yield.

We expect to finance future asset acquisitions in two ways:

• Invest cash flow from operations in excess of our dividend; and

• Issue additional debt or equity to allow us to execute larger purchases.

Ocwen stated that it has servicing assets with approximately $66 billion of UPB as of June 30, 2014 that are similar to the assets that HLSS currently holds. Although we cannot guarantee that future transactions will occur, we believe that HLSS is an attractive source of financing for these assets.

Changes in Results of Operations Summary

The following table summarizes our condensed consolidated operating results for the three and six months ended June 30:

	Three Months				Six Months
	2014		2013		2014		2013
Revenue	$	95,137	$	66,449	$	201,264	$	114,825
Operating expenses	4,476		2,562		8,732		4,599
Income from operations	90,661		63,887		192,532		110,226
Interest expense	40,001		20,034		77,512		38,276

Income tax expense	—		27		—		39
Net income	$	50,660	$	43,826	$	115,020	$	71,911

Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2014 versus 2013. Revenue primarily includes interest income recorded on Notes receivable – Rights to MSRs using the interest method. Our 2014 Interest income exceeds 2013 Interest income because our average UPB for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, was $173.3 billion and $175.7 billion, respectively, compared to average UPB of $95.8 billion and $90.4 billion, respectively, for the same periods in 2013. In addition, lower prepayment speeds for the UPB tied to our Notes receivable – Rights to MSRs contributed to greater Interest income during 2014. Average prepayment speeds were 10.8% and 10.4% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively, compared to 12.5% and 12.7%, respectively, for the same periods in 2013. We recorded an increase in interest income of $9,404 and $30,090 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively, as a result of changes in the fair value of our Notes receivable – Rights to MSRs. We recognized an increase in interest income of $15,940 and $19,237 for three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, as a result of changes in the fair value of our Notes receivable – Rights to MSRs. Lastly, the interest earned on our

34

Loans held for investment during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, contributed to the increase in interest income as they represent a new class of Residential Mortgage Assets for 2014.

Operating expenses increased period over period primarily because the scale of our business significantly increased as a result of various Residential Mortgage Asset purchases. Operating expenses are primarily comprised of Compensation and benefits, Related party expenses and General and administrative expenses. Our average headcount period over period increased from fifteen to eighteen which primarily contributed to the increase in the Compensation and benefits portion of operating expenses. Related party expenses are related to the Ocwen Professional Services Agreement and the Altisource Administrative Services Agreement. The increase in Related party expenses primarily related to increased use of business strategy, tax and legal services as part of the Ocwen Professional Services Agreement. The increase in General and administrative expenses is primarily related to bank fees associated with our custodial accounts and tax and legal expenses related to our research and pursuit of new investment opportunities.

Increases in interest expense period over period were primarily due to an increase in our Match funded liabilities to $5.6 billion from $3.3 billion as of June 30, 2014 and June 30, 2013, respectively, and the weighted average interest rate on these liabilities increased to 1.85% from 1.80% as of June 30, 2014 and June 30, 2013, respectively. Additionally, we incurred interest expense on our Other borrowings during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 which were not outstanding during the same periods in 2013.

Our tax expense for both periods was largely impacted by our status as a Cayman Islands exempted company. The Cayman Islands currently levies no taxes on individuals or corporations based upon profits, income, gains or appreciation.

Summary Operating Information

We operate the business as a single reportable segment: Residential Mortgage Assets. For purposes of our internal management reporting, we separately report the components of Interest income – notes receivable – Rights to MSRs, which include Servicing fee revenue, Servicing expense, Amortization of Notes receivable – Rights to MSRs and Change in fair value of Notes receivable – Rights to MSRs. We provide a reconciliation of our reported results to our internal management reporting for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and June 30, 2013, in the following tables.

We executed our agreements with Ocwen with the intent that we would receive the total amount of the servicing fees collected and that we would pay Ocwen a subservicing fee that is determined based on its collections and advance ratio performance. We evaluate our operating performance and manage our business considering servicing fees collected, subservicing fees paid, amortization of Notes receivable – Rights to MSRs and changes in fair value of Notes receivable – Rights to MSRs, and we maintain our internal management reporting on this basis. The following table presents our consolidated results of operations in accordance with GAAP reconciled to our internally reported financial results.

Our total revenue, total operating expenses and income from operations as presented in our Management Reporting shown below should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, total revenue, total operating expenses and income from operations determined in accordance with GAAP.

(1) Servicing fee revenue reflects servicing fees received under our agreements with Ocwen.

(2) Interest income – notes receivable – Rights to MSRs represents the net amount of servicing fees received less servicing fees paid, amortization of the Notes receivable – Rights to MSRs and changes in the fair value of Notes receivable – Rights to MSRs. We exclude this interest income from our Management Reporting and instead report the individual components, including Servicing fee revenue, Servicing expense, Amortization of Notes receivable – Rights to MSRs and Change in fair value of Notes receivable – Rights to MSRs.

37

(3) Servicing expense reflects the fee we incurred under the agreements with Ocwen.

(4) Amortization of Notes receivable – Rights to MSRs reflects reductions in the value of the Notes receivable – Rights to MSRs based on the run-off of the portfolio and the application of the interest method.

(5) Our methodology of determining the fair value of Notes receivable – Rights to MSRs is described in Part I, Item I, "Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements – Note 3, Fair Value of Financial Instruments." In our Interim Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, we record changes in fair value as a component of Interest income – notes receivable – Rights to MSRs. In our Interim Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, we record changes in fair value as Reductions to notes receivable – Rights to MSRs, and we record operating cash flows to the extent that an increase in fair value exceeds amortization.

Three and Six months ended June 30, 2014 versus 2013. Servicing fee revenue increased period over period because we owned the servicing rights for significantly greater average UPB during 2014. Servicing fee revenue is a function of principal and interest collected during the period and the contractual servicing fee rate. Average UPB for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 was $173.3 billion and $175.7 billion, respectively compared to $95.8 billion and $90.4 billion, respectively for the same periods in 2013.

The servicing expense paid to Ocwen during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 included $22,283 and $44,982, respectively, for the base fee and $68,618 and $136,563, respectively, in incentive fees. The servicing expense paid to Ocwen during the comparable 2013 periods included $15,409 and $27,680, respectively, for the base fee and $50,086 and $84,867, respectively, in incentive fees. The difference is primarily attributable to increased average UPB period over period and to incentive fee reductions in 2014 as a result of excess servicing advances. We are partially compensated for the cost of excess servicing advances because the performance-based incentive fee payable to Ocwen in any month will be reduced by an amount equal to 1-Month LIBOR plus 275 bps per annum of the amount of any such excess servicing advances if the advance ratio exceeds a predetermined level for that month. Amortization of Notes receivable – Rights to MSRs relates to reduction in UPB due to portfolio run-off and is greater during 2014 due to larger average UPB. Lastly, there was an increase in the fair value of the Notes receivable - Rights to MSRs for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 of $9,404 and $30,090, respectively, compared to an increase of $15,940 and $19,237 for the same periods in 2013, respectively.

Change in Financial Condition Summary

The overall increase in total assets of $623,831 and total liabilities of $576,108 during the six months ended June 30, 2014, primarily resulted from:

• The completion of the GNMA EBO loan purchase from Ocwen totaling $556,618;

• The creation of the EBO Facility, which increased total liabilities by $472,734;

• Financing of servicing advances related to the GNMA EBO Transaction of $55,702;

• Financing of other servicing advances for Ocwen of $20,157;

• The completion of the RPL purchase from an unrelated third party totaling $276,248;

• The creation of the RPL Facility, which increased total liabilities by $220,998;

• An increase in the fair value of our Notes receivable – Rights to MSRs of $30,006; and

• We received $254,023 in Match funded advance remittances and had net repayments of Match funded liabilities of $121,693.

Our assets at June 30, 2014, include Notes receivable – Rights to MSRs which had a balance of $629,579 representing 7.9% of total assets at June 30, 2014. Notes receivable – Rights to MSRs are carried at fair value which is determined based on an appraisal prepared with the assistance of an independent valuation firm and requires the use of significant unobservable inputs. The most significant assumptions used in the appraisal as of June 30, 2014 are:

• Discount rates reflecting the risk of earning the future income streams ranging from 15% to 22%;

• Interest rate used for calculating the cost of servicing advances of 1-Month LIBOR plus 3.50%;

40

• Mortgage loan prepayment projections ranging from 12% to 28% of the related mortgage lifetime projected prepayment rate; and

• Delinquency rate projections ranging from 15% to 35% of the aggregate unpaid balance of the underlying mortgage loans.

The independent valuation firm reviewed the collateral attributes and the historical payment performance of the underlying mortgage servicing portfolio and compared them with similar mortgage servicing portfolios and with standard industry mortgage performance benchmarks to arrive at the assumptions set forth above. The selected collateral attributes and performance comparisons utilized were the voluntary prepayment performance, delinquency and foreclosure performance, operational cost comparison, average loan balance, weighted average coupon and note rate distribution, loan product type classification, geographic distribution and servicing advance behavior.

The unobservable inputs that have the most significant effect on the fair value of Notes receivable – Rights to MSRs are the mortgage loan prepayment rate projections and delinquency rate projections; however, any significant increase (decrease) in discount rates, interest rates, mortgage loan prepayment projections or delinquency rate projections, each in isolation, would result in a substantially lower (higher) valuation.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

We define liquidity as unencumbered cash balances plus unused, collateralized financing capacity. Our liquidity as of June 30, 2014, as measured by cash and available credit, was $113,111, a decrease of $47,862 from December 31, 2013. At June 30, 2014, our cash position was $89,418 compared to $87,896 at December 31, 2013. We had collateralized available capacity of $23,693 at June 30, 2014, compared to $73,077 at December 31, 2013. Regarding the investment of cash, our investment policies emphasize principal preservation and availability by limiting the investment to demand deposit accounts.

Investment policy and funding strategy. Our primary sources of funds for near-term liquidity are:

• Interest income – notes receivable – Rights to MSRs;

• Proceeds from liquidation of Loans held for investment;

• Proceeds from Match funded liabilities; and

• Proceeds from Other borrowings.

Potential long-term sources of liquidity include proceeds from the issuance of debt or equity.

Our primary uses of funds are:

• Payments for advances in excess of collections on our existing servicing portfolio;

• Payments of interest and operating costs;

• Purchases of Residential Mortgage Assets; and

• Repayments of borrowings.

In managing our liquidity position, our primary focus is on maintaining sufficient cash and unused borrowing capacity to meet our advancing obligations, pay expenses and purchase additional Residential Mortgage Assets. We regularly monitor and project our cash position and borrowing capacity, and we consider this in sizing asset purchases.

At June 30, 2014, $1,362,574 of our total maximum borrowing capacity on our advance facilities remained unused. Additionally, our EBO Facility had credit available of $23,693. We maintain unused borrowing capacity for three reasons:

• As a protection should advances increase due to increased delinquencies;

• As capacity to retire our term notes as they mature; and

• To provide capacity for the acquisition of additional Residential Mortgage Assets.

Outlook. We believe that our cash balance and unused advance financing capacity are sufficient to meet foreseeable requirements.

Debt and Match funded liability summary. As of June 30, 2014, we had $1,362,574 of unused borrowing capacity on our advancefacilities. Our ability to continue to pledge collateral under our advance facilities depends on the performance of the collateral. Currently, the large majority of our collateral qualifies for financing. The debt covenants for our advance facilities,

41

senior secured term loan facility, the EBO Facility, the Note Facility and the RPL Facility (collectively, our “Facilities”) require that we maintain minimum levels of liquid assets. Failure to comply with these covenants could result in restrictions on new borrowings or the early termination of our Facilities. We believe we are in compliance with these covenants and do not expect them to restrict our activities.

During the six months ended June 30, 2014, we issued three series of term notes with a combined balance of $1,200,000. In addition, we renewed our Series 2013 VF 1 Notes to reduce the cost of borrowing and extend the term by one year. We also retired term notes of $650,000. We entered into the EBO Facility to partially finance our purchase of GNMA EBO loans. The EBO Facility had an outstanding balance of $460,822 at June 30, 2014. We entered into the Note Facility to partially finance $37,000 of notes retained as part of the Series 2014 T3 Term Note issuance on June 18, 2014. The Note Facility had an outstanding balance of $25,900 at June 30, 2014. Lastly, we entered into the RPL Facility to partially finance our purchase of RPLs. The RPL Facility had an outstanding balance of $220,998 at June 30, 2014.

On July 16, 2014, we entered into agreements to extend the maturity of our variable funding notes secured servicing advance receivables with an aggregate borrowing capacity of $2.1 billion to August 28, 2015.

Liquidity Risk. We are exposed to liquidity risk should the cash required to make new advances pursuant to servicing contracts and our agreements with Ocwen exceed the amount of advance repayments. In general, we finance our operations through operating cash flows and have advance financing facilities in place with sufficient capacity to cover the majority of cash required to make new advances. However, our Facilities contain borrowing conditions that, if not met, could affect our ability to borrow on new advances and affect our liquidity.

We are also exposed to liquidity risk related to our Loans held for investment. We have leveraged our Loans held for investment acquired to date in repurchase agreements with maturities of one year or less. Repurchase agreements are subject to margin calls that could adversely affect our liquidity by requiring us to repay a portion of the outstanding borrowing.

Cash flows for the six months ended June 30. The following table presents a summary of our cash flows for the six months ended June 30:

	2014			2013
Net income	$	115,020		$	71,911
Adjustments for non-cash items	11,637			4,107
Changes in assets and liabilities	245,578			535,862
Cash flows from operating activities	372,235			611,880
Cash flows from investing activities	(880,015		)	(1,222,470		)
Cash flows from financing activities	509,302			1,221,038
Net increase in cash	1,522			610,448
Cash at beginning of period	87,896			76,048
Cash at end of period	$	89,418		$	686,496

Six months ended June 30, 2014. Our operating activities provided $372,235 of cash. Components of operating cash flows included amounts provided by a decrease in working capital accounts of $245,578 and by our Net income of $115,020, adjusted for amortization of debt issuance costs of $9,560, accretion of our original issuance discount related to our senior secured term loan facility of $372, net amortization of our loan purchase premium and discount of $1,641 and share-based compensation expense of $64. The primary contributors to the changes in working capital accounts were reductions in Match funded advances of $254,023 and Related party receivables of $52,995, offset by increases in debt service accounts of $42,254 and a decrease in Related party payables of $7,741. The remainder of the working capital activity relates to a net decrease in cash flows from operations due to movements in other assets and other liabilities of $11,445, primarily attributable to an increase in accrued interest income related to the GNMA EBO and RPL transactions.

The primary driver of the decrease in Related party receivables was attributable to the change in Match funded advance collections due from Ocwen of $51,656. The decrease in Related party payables was primarily attributable to the decrease in subservicing fees payable to Ocwen of $6,538. A portion of our Match funded advance collections of $254,023 were immediately used to pay down our outstanding Match funded liabilities. Refer to the financing activities discussion below for more details regarding Match funded liability cash movements during the current period. Lastly, the increase in debt service

42

accounts primarily relates to payments made to the trustees of our advance financing facilities. The trustees release these funds to pay down our Match funded liabilities on scheduled funding dates.

Our investing activities used $880,015 of cash during the six months ended June 30, 2014 which primarily related to our acquisition of GNMA EBO loans from Ocwen and RPLs from a third party seller. We paid $556,618 for the GNMA EBO loans and $276,248 for the RPLs. These acquisitions were partially offset by reductions of $29,133 from the payoff of certain Loans held for investment. In addition, we used $81,688 of cash to finance servicing advances, offset by $1,216 received from the recovery of advance financing receivables. Finally, we had a reduction in Notes receivable – Rights to MSRs of $4,190 due to principal reductions from both runoff in the UPB of the mortgage loans serviced and the application of the interest method.

Our financing activities provided $509,302 of cash. We had net payments to Match funded liabilities of $121,693 during the period. We received $707,720 in proceeds from our Other borrowings to help fund our GNMA EBO loan and RPL purchases and to partially finance our retention of a portion of our 2014 T3 Term Notes. These amounts were offset by payments of debt issuance costs of $9,639 and two quarterly principal payments for a total of $1,750 on our senior secured term loan facility. Additionally, we paid dividends of $65,336.

Six months ended June 30, 2013. Our operating activities provided $611,880 of cash. Components of operating cash flows included amounts provided by changes in working capital accounts of $535,862 and by our Net income of $71,911, adjusted for amortization of debt issuance costs of $6,687, an increase in the fair value of our Notes receivable - Rights to MSRs of $2,588 and accretion of our original issuance discount related to our senior secured term loan facility of $8. The primary contributors to the change in working capital accounts were reductions in Match funded advances of $474,544, decreases in Related party receivables of $22,104 and debt service accounts of $18,971 and increases in related party payables of $13,768. The remainder of the working capital activity relates to a net increase in cash flows from operations due to movements in other assets and other liabilities of $6,475.

The primary driver of the change in Related party receivables was Match funded advance collections due from Ocwen of $21,265. Increases in related party payables were primarily attributable to subservicing fees payable to Ocwen of $688 for June 30, 2013, subservicing activity and an amount due to Ocwen of $13,045 for advances made on our behalf as of June 30, 2013. The collection of Match funded advances of $474,544 was used to pay down $406,901 of our Match funded liabilities, which resulted in net cash provided of $67,643. Refer to the financing activities discussion below for more details regarding Match funded liability cash movements during the period.

Our investing activities used $1,222,470 of cash during the period, which primarily related to our acquisition of Rights to MSRs and related Match funded advances associated with two asset purchases from Ocwen. We paid $148,622 to Ocwen for Notes receivable – Rights to MSRs and $1,079,777 for Match funded advances. We also settled a prior period purchase price adjustment with Ocwen of $1,410. Finally, we had a reduction in Notes receivable – Rights to MSRs of $7,339 due to UPB runoff and the application of the interest method.

Our financing activities provided $1,221,038 of cash. New ordinary share issuances during the period provided $334,390 of cash, net of underwriting fees. We borrowed $1,007,169 on our Match funded advance financing facility related to our two asset purchases from Ocwen, and overall, we had net proceeds from Match funded liabilities of $600,268 during the period. We received $344,750 in proceeds in connection with the issuance of debt under our senior secured term loan facility in anticipation of our July 1, 2013, follow-on purchase from Ocwen. These amounts were offset by payments of debt issue costs totaling $13,747. Additionally, we paid dividends equal to $44,231. Finally, we paid offering costs of $392 associated with our issuance of ordinary shares during the period.

TOTAL EQUITY

Total equity amounted to $1,264,170 at June 30, 2014, as compared to $1,216,447 at December 31, 2013. This increase of $47,723 is primarily due to net income of $115,020, offset by dividends declared of $66,045. In addition, we recorded $64 of share-based compensation expense and $1,316 of unrealized losses (net of tax) on interest rate swaps that we designated as cash flow hedges.

43

DIVIDENDS

We intend to distribute approximately 90 percent of our earnings over time in the form of monthly cash dividends. During 2014, we declared the following dividends:

Record Date	Payment Date	Amount per Ordinary Share
January 31, 2014	February 10, 2014	$0.15
February 28, 2014	March 10, 2014	$0.15
March 31, 2014	April 10, 2014	$0.15
April 30, 2014	May 12, 2014	$0.16
May 30, 2014	June 10, 2014	$0.16
June 30, 2014	July 10, 2014	$0.16
July 31, 2014	August 11, 2014	$0.16
August 29, 2014	September 10, 2014	$0.18
September 30, 2014	October 10, 2014	$0.18

CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS, OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS AND OTHER MATTERS

Contractual Obligations

We believe that we have adequate resources to fund all unfunded commitments to the extent required and to meet all contractual obligations as they come due. Such contractual obligations include payments on our Other borrowings and operating leases.

We exclude our Match funded liabilities from our contractual obligations because they represent non-recourse debt that has been collateralized by Match funded advances which are not available to satisfy general claims against HLSS. Holders of the notes issued by the Match Funded Advance SPEs have no recourse against any assets other than the Match funded advances that serve as collateral for the securitized debt.

During the six months ended June 30, 2014, we entered into the EBO Facility, the RPL Facility and the Note Facility. See Part I, Item 1, “Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements — Note 8, Other Borrowings” for additional information regarding the contractual obligations under these facilities.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

In the normal course of business, we may engage in transactions with a variety of financial institutions and other companies that we do not reflect on our Interim Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. We are subject to potential financial loss if the counterparties to our off-balance sheet transactions are unable to complete an agreed-upon transaction. We seek to limit counterparty risk through financial analysis, dollar limits and other monitoring procedures. We also entered into non-cancelable operating leases principally for our office facilities.

Derivatives. We record all derivative transactions at fair value on our Interim Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. We use these derivatives primarily to manage our interest rate risk. The notional amounts of our derivative contracts do not reflect our exposure to credit loss.

Involvement with SPEs. We use SPEs in the financing of our Match funded advances and Loans held for investment. We use securitization facilities to finance these assets. The SPEs to which these assets are transferred in these securitization transactions are included in our Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements because we are the primary beneficiary of the SPEs, which are also VIEs. The holders of the debt of the Match Funded Advance SPEs can look only to the assets of the SPEs for

44

satisfaction of the debt and have no recourse against HLSS. The holders of the debt of the Mortgage Loans SPEs have recourse against HLSS if the assets of the SPE are not able to satisfy the debt of the SPE.

VIEs. If we determine that we are the primary beneficiary of a VIE, we report the VIE in our Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. As of June 30, 2014, all of our VIEs are fully consolidated.

Related Parties

We have entered into various agreements with Ocwen and Altisource. William C. Erbey, our founder and the Chairman of our Board of Directors, is also the Chairman of the Board of Directors of Ocwen and Altisource.

At June 30, 2014, Ocwen owed us $507 for professional services provided pursuant to the Professional Services Agreement. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 we earned fees of $773 and $1,401, respectively, for services provided to Ocwen pursuant to the Professional Services Agreement (compared to $560 and $967 for the same periods in 2013). Additionally, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, we incurred expenses of $225 and $379 for services received from Ocwen pursuant to the Professional Services Agreement (compare to $30 and $60 for the same periods in 2013). Revenue and expenses from the Professional Services Agreement are included within Related party revenue and Related party expenses, respectively.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, we incurred expenses of $271 and $489 for services provided to us pursuant to the Altisource Administrative Services Agreement (compared to $176 and $352 for the same periods in 2013). We reported these amounts within Related party expenses for each period then ended.

We use actual costs incurred plus a 15% mark-up for our revenues and expenses related to our Professional Services Agreement with Ocwen and for expenses related to our Altisource Administrative Services Agreement. See Part I, Item 1, "Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements - Note 17, Related Party Transactions" for more information regarding our related party transactions.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

There were no significant changes to the accounting policies that we believe are the most critical to an understanding of our results of operations and financial condition that are disclosed in our 2013 Form 10-K/A.

RECENT ACCOUNTING DEVELOPMENTS

See Part I, Item 1, “Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements — Note 1, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies — Recent Accounting Pronouncements.”

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK (DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS)

Market risk includes liquidity risk and interest rate risk. Market risk also reflects the risk of decline in the valuation of financial instruments and the collateral underlying loans. Our Investment Committee reviews significant transactions that may impact market risk and is authorized to utilize a wide variety of techniques and strategies to manage market risk including, in particular, interest rate risk.

Liquidity Risk

See the “Liquidity and Capital Resources” section for additional discussion of liquidity and related risks.

Interest Rate Risk

Interest rate risk is a function of (i) the timing and (ii) the dollar amount of assets and liabilities that re-price at various points in time. We are exposed to interest rate risk to the extent that our interest rate sensitive liabilities mature or re-price at different speeds, or different bases, than our interest-earning assets.

Our primary strategy to manage the impact of changes in interest rates is to borrow at fixed rates on the term notes in our Match funded liability structure. We also receive the floating rate interest earned on custodial account balances related to the mortgage loans serviced under our subservicing agreement with Ocwen. Further, we executed a hedging strategy aimed at

45

mitigating the impact of changes in variable interest rates within a certain period based on the projected excess of interest rate sensitive liabilities over interest rate sensitive assets. Future variances between the projected excess of interest rate sensitive liabilities over interest rate sensitive assets and actual results could cause us to become over-hedged or under-hedged. Lastly, we are partially compensated for the cost of excess servicing advances because the performance-based incentive fee payable to Ocwen in any month will be reduced by an amount equal to 1-Month LIBOR plus 275 bps per annum of the amount of any such excess servicing advances if the advance ratio exceeds a predetermined level for that month.

If interest rates increase by 1% on our variable-rate borrowing and interest-earning account balances, we estimate a net positive impact of approximately $8,237 resulting from an increase of $12,322 in annual interest income compared to an increase of $4,085 in annual interest expense based on June 30, 2014, balances.

	June 30, 2014
Variable-rate borrowings outstanding (1)	$	998,380
Fixed-rate borrowings outstanding	4,078,500
Custodial account balances (2)	1,141,647
Notional balance of interest rate swaps (2) (3)	299,735

(1) A portion of this balance is attributable to our senior secured term loan facility which has an interest rate of 1-Month LIBOR plus 3.50% with a 1.00% LIBOR floor. We also include the outstanding balance of our EBO Facility and RPL Facility which have an interest rate of 1-Month LIBOR plus 3.05% and plus 2.50%, respectively. We use the EBO Facility and the RPL Facility to finance our Loans held for investment which are primarily fixed rate loans. Because we finance our fixed rate Loans held for investment using variable rate borrowings, we face interest rate risk related to our Loans held for investment in a rising interest rate environment; however, this risk is partially offset by the interest earned on our variable rate custodial account balances. This balance also includes the Note Facility, which has an interest rate of 1-Month LIBOR plus 1.15%. Lastly, we adjusted this balance to exclude financing of advances over the predetermined advance ratio for the month of June 2014.

(2) Excluded from our Interim Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.

(3) This amount relates to the non-forward starting interest rate swaps that we use to hedge our exposure to rising interest rates on a portion of our outstanding variable-rate borrowings.

Our Interim Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet at June 30, 2014, includes $89,418 of interest-earning cash accounts and $1,075 of interest-earning collateral accounts.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Company's filings under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms, and to ensure that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act) as of June 30, 2014. Based upon that evaluation, and in connection with the restatements described in Note 17 to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements, management has determined that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of June 30, 2014 solely as a result of this material weakness which had not been remediated as of June 30, 2014.

We are committed to a strong internal control environment and are currently taking steps to remediate this material weakness. Specifically, management will establish an internal cash flow model to evaluate changes in fair value of our Notes receivable - Rights to MSRs, and this model will be reconciled to valuations provided by independent third parties. We will also include the effect of fair value adjustments in the application of the interest method in accounting for our Notes receivable - Rights to MSRs. Additionally, we will perform reconciliations of data underlying the valuation models provided to independent valuation firms to ensure the data is accurate. We intend to implement this process immediately and to complete remediation during 2014. We believe that this remediation action will represent significant improvement in our internal control environment.

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that have occurred during the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2014 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

See Part I, Item 1, “Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements — Note 18, Commitments and Contingencies," for more information regarding legal proceedings.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

There have been no material changes in our risk factors from those disclosed under "Item 1A. Risk Factors" included in our 2013 Form 10-K/A.

Governmental bodies may restrict our transactions with related parties or institute policies that adversely affect Ocwen’s business which could increase our operating expenses, reduce our revenues or otherwise adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and ability to grow.

Our business strategy, including our asset purchase strategy, may be affected by regulatory considerations. The recent trend among federal, state and local lawmakers and regulators has been toward increasing laws, regulations and investigative proceedings with regard to residential mortgage servicing. Our success in part depends on our ability to purchase additional Residential Mortgage Assets from parties like Ocwen and engage high quality mortgage servicers, like Ocwen, to service these assets. If regulators restrict any aspect of our or Ocwen’s business strategy, including Ocwen’s ability to transact business with us, we may be required to alter our strategy, which could include revisions to our Residential Mortgage Asset purchase plans or changes with respect to our mortgage servicing arrangements. Any restrictions imposed on Ocwen’s ability to transact business with us could have a material adverse impact on our business. Ocwen has disclosed that it is subject to a number of federal and state regulatory investigations, examinations, inquiries and requests for information that have resulted or could, in the future, result in adverse regulatory action against Ocwen. One or more of such regulatory actions or Ocwen’s failure to comply with any commitments it makes with respect to such regulatory actions could adversely affect Ocwen’s business or impose additional requirements or restrictions on its activities. Regulatory action against Ocwen could increase our operating expenses, reduce our revenues or otherwise adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and ability to grow.   

Servicing issues in our portfolio of Loans held for investment could adversely impact our claims against FHA insurance and result in our reliance on servicer indemnifications which could increase the risk of losses.

We rely on Ocwen to service our GNMA EBO loans in a manner that supports our ability to make claims to the FHA for shortfalls on these loans. If servicing issues result in the curtailment of FHA insurance claims, we will only have recourse against Ocwen for any shortfall. If Ocwen is unable to make indemnification payments owed to us under this circumstance, we could incur losses. Additional discussion of our credit risk related to Ocwen that affect or could affect our business operations is included under "Item 1A. Risk Factors" within our 2013 Form 10-K (as amended and restated on our Form 10-K/A).

Assumptions related to the valuations of our re-performing residential mortgage loans that were acquired may not reflect actual results in ways that materially and adversely affect our operating results.

We have acquired re-performing residential mortgage loans that are not insured against loss. We develop assumptions regarding re-default rates, delinquency rates, interest rates, prepayment speeds and severity in determining the purchase price we will pay for these loans. Even though these loans are acquired at a discount to the UPB, actual results may be materially different from our assumptions, and this may cause us to incur material losses. Further, delays in the timeline to complete foreclosures of non-performing loans could increase our exposure to carrying costs and changes in the cost and availability of financing. Borrowers on re-performing loans, all of which have been previously delinquent, may be more likely to be in economic distress, to have become unemployed or bankrupt or to otherwise be unable or unwilling to make payments when due. Also, a portion of these loans feature future step-ups in the required payment which could cause a greater than expected increase in re-default rates and could reduce our profitability and cash flows.

The properties underlying Loans held for investment that we acquire through foreclosure may contain unknown environmental defects which could increase our risk of loss.

Environmental protection laws that apply to properties that secure or underlie our Loans held for investment could diminish the value of the properties and result in losses. We may also be exposed to environmental liabilities with respect to properties of

48

which we become a direct or indirect owner or to which we take title which could adversely affect our business and financial results.

Changes in financing terms for our Loans held for investment may adversely affect our return on our investments and may reduce our liquidity.

We have leveraged our Loans held for investment acquired to date in repurchase agreements with maturities of one year or less. Repurchase agreements generally allow the counterparties to determine the market value of the collateral and are subject to margin calls that could adversely affect our liquidity by requiring us to repay a portion of the outstanding borrowing. To the extent that we do not have sufficient cash to satisfy a margin call, this may require the liquidation of assets at a disadvantageous time which could cause us to incur losses. Should market conditions or asset performance expectations deteriorate, we may not be able to refinance our repurchase facilities or enter into longer-term securitization facilities as planned and could result in reduced advance rates, higher interest rates or other changes in terms that could adversely impact our results of operations and liquidity.

Our borrowings collateralized by Loans held for investment require that we make certain representations and warranties that, if determined to be inaccurate, could require us to repurchase loans or cover losses.

Our financing facilities require us to make certain representations and warranties regarding the Loans held for investment that collateralize the borrowings. Although we perform due diligence on the Loans held for investment that we acquire, certain representations and warranties that we make in respect of such loans may ultimately be determined to be inaccurate. In the event of a breach of a representation or warranty, we may be required to repurchase affected loans, make indemnification payments to certain indemnified parties or address any claims associated with such breach. Further, we may have limited or no recourse against the seller from whom we purchased the loans. Such recourse may be limited due to a variety of factors including, the absence of a representation or warranty from the seller corresponding to the representation provided by us or the contractual expiration thereof.

Our ability to borrow may be adversely affected by the suspension or delay of the rating of our notes by the credit agency providing the ratings.

The majority of our advance facility notes are rated by one rating agency, and this agency may suspend rating notes while it reviews its policies for rating for such notes. Rating agency delays may result in our inability to obtain timely ratings on new notes which could adversely impact the availability of borrowings, interest rates, advance rates or other terms which could adversely affect our results of operations and liquidity. Further, if we are unable to secure ratings from other agencies, limited investor demand for unrated notes could result in further adverse changes to our liquidity and profitability.

We include a discussion of all other principal risks and uncertainties that affect or could affect our business operations within our 2013 Form 10-K/A.

[1] There was an unrealized pre-tax loss of $1,778 and $2,005 related to our interest rate swaps included in AOCI for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, and an unrealized pre-tax gains of $5,340 and $5,353 related to our interest rate swaps included in AOCI for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013. Given the current and expected effectiveness of our hedging arrangements, we do not expect any reclassifications from AOCI into earnings associated with hedging ineffectiveness related to these hedging arrangements during the next twelve months.

[2] Projected net settlements for the next twelve months total approximately $778 of payments to the counterparty.

[3] The effective date of the swap is the date from which monthly net settlements begin to be computed.

RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

We entered into various agreements with Ocwen and Altisource Portfolio Solutions, S.A. (“Altisource”) in connection with our Initial Public Offering on March 5, 2012. William C. Erbey, our founder and the Chairman of our Board of Directors, is also the Chairman of the Board of Directors of Ocwen and Altisource.

As the named servicer, Ocwen remains obligated to perform as servicer under the related pooling and servicing agreements ("PSAs"), and we are required to pay Ocwen a monthly fee for the servicing activities it performs. We are also required to purchase any servicing advances that Ocwen is required to make pursuant to such PSAs.

Ocwen is also the named servicer on the GNMA EBO loans and RPLs, and we are required to pay Ocwen a monthly fee for the servicing activities it performs.

On May 1, 2014, we financed servicing advances totaling $20,157 for Ocwen. We account for these receivables as Other assets in the Interim Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. We receive interest income on these receivables at a rate of 1-month LIBOR plus 550 bps. We record this interest income as Interest income – other in the Interim Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

In addition to the acquisition of Residential Mortgage Assets described in Note 2, the following table summarizes our transactions with Ocwen for the three and six months ended June 30:

	Three Months						Six Months

At June 30, 2014, as a result of servicing activities related to our Notes receivable – Right to MSRs, Ocwen owed us $6,131 for servicing fees collected but not remitted to us, and we owed Ocwen $1,576 for the subservicing fee earned by Ocwen in June 2014. Ocwen owed us $332 for interest accrued on financing of servicing advances as of June 30, 2014. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, we earned interest income of $6,563 and $8,549 as a result of the GNMA EBO Transaction with Ocwen ($0 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2013). Lastly, our Notes receivable – Rights to MSRs resulted from transactions with Ocwen.

[1] Each term note and variable funding note issuance has four classes, an A, B, C, and D class

[2] Our unused borrowing capacity is available to us if we have additional eligible collateral to pledge and meet other borrowing conditions. We pay a 0.50% or 0.625% fee on the unused borrowing capacity, which varies by facility.

[3] On January 17, 2014, we completed the issuance of $600,000 of one-year and $200,000 of three-years term notes. On June 18, 2014, we completed the issuance of $400,000 of four-year term notes. We retained $37,000 of these notes.

[4] The weighted average interest rate at June 30, 2014, was 1.85%. We pay interest monthly.

[5] The amortization date is the date on which the revolving period ends under each advance facility note and repayment of the outstanding balance must begin if the note is not renewed or extended. The maturity date is the due date for all outstanding balances. After the amortization date, all collections that represent the repayment of Match funded advances pledged to the facilities must be applied to reduce the balance of the note outstanding, and any new advances are ineligible to be financed.

[6] These Variable Funding Notes were amended on February 14, 2014, to extend the amortization and maturity dates by a year and to reduce the interest rate spreads compared to December 31, 2013. Variable Funding Note balances fluctuate based on Match funded advance activity and our ability to issue fixed rate term notes.

[7] The Class A Term Money Market Fund Note and Class A Draw Money Market Fund Note have a combined maximum borrowing capacity of $265,000. By design, the Class A Term Money Market Fund Note balance is reduced at scheduled times and there is an equally offsetting increase to the Class A Draw Money Market Fund Note. The combined balance of these notes was equal to $265,000 at June 30, 2014, and December 31, 2013. The amortization date for the Class A Term Money Market Fund Note represents the commencement date for scheduled repayments.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Organization

Home Loan Servicing Solutions, Ltd. and its wholly owned subsidiaries (collectively referred to throughout as “HLSS”, “us”, “our”, “we” or the “Company”) focus on acquiring mortgage servicing rights and the related servicing advances, Loans held for investment and other residential mortgage-related assets ("Residential Mortgage Assets").

Basis of Presentation and Use of Estimates

We prepared the accompanying unaudited Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with the instructions of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) to Form 10-Q for interim financial statements. In our opinion, the accompanying unaudited financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring accruals, necessary for a fair presentation. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires that we make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates. Material estimates that are particularly significant relate to our fair value measurements of Notes receivable – Rights to MSRs and of Loans held for investment.

Principles of Consolidation

Our financial statements include the accounts of Home Loan Servicing Solutions, Ltd. and its wholly owned subsidiaries as well as four variable interest entities (“VIE”) of which we are the primary beneficiary. We eliminate intercompany accounts and transactions in consolidation.

We evaluate each special purpose entity (“SPE”) for classification as a VIE. When a SPE meets the definition of a VIE and we determine that HLSS is the primary beneficiary, we include the SPE in our Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Our Match funded advances are in two SPEs along with related Match funded liabilities (the "Match Funded Advances SPEs"). We determined that these SPEs are VIEs of which we are the primary beneficiaries. The accounts of these SPEs are included in our Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Match funded advances on loans serviced for others result from our transfers of residential loan servicing advances to SPEs in exchange for cash. The SPEs issue debt supported by collections on the transferred advances. We made these transfers under the terms of our advance facility agreements. These transfers do not qualify for sale accounting because we retain control over the transferred assets. As a result, we account for these transfers as financings and classify the transferred advances on our Interim Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as Match funded advances and the related liabilities as Match funded liabilities. We use collections on the Match funded advances pledged to the SPEs to repay principal and to pay interest and the expenses of the SPEs. Holders of the debt issued by the SPEs can look only to the assets of the entity itself for satisfaction of the debt and have no recourse against HLSS.

Our Loans held for investment are in two SPEs along with related Other borrowings (the "Mortgage Loans SPEs"). We determined that these SPEs are VIEs of which we are the primary beneficiaries. The accounts of these SPEs are included in our Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Loans held for investment are transferred to SPEs in exchange for cash, and the SPEs issue debt collateralized by these loans. These transfers do not qualify for sale accounting because we retain control over the transferred assets. As a result, we account for these transfers as financings and classify the transferred loans on our Interim Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as Loans held for investment and the related liabilities as Other borrowings. We use collections on the Loans held for investment pledged to the SPEs to repay principal and to pay interest and the expenses of the SPEs. Holders of the debt issued by the SPEs can look beyond the assets of the SPEs for satisfaction of the debt and therefore have recourse against HLSS. It is our expectation that the cash flows of the SPEs will be sufficient to meet all claims of the debt holders. HLSS is responsible for making any principal or interest payments to the debt holders not covered by the cash flows of the SPEs.

The following tables summarize the assets and liabilities of our consolidated SPEs at the dates indicated:

(2) Other assets principally include debt service accounts, debt issuance costs and advances we financed as part of asset acquisitions. See Note 6 for more information about our Other assets.

(3) Other borrowings include the carrying value of our borrowings to acquire Loans held for investment. See Note 8 for more information about our Other borrowings.

Loans Held for Investment and Related Accrued Income

Loans held for investment consist of residential mortgage loans acquired from others. The Company does not originate loans. Each acquired loan is evaluated at acquisition to determine if the loan is impaired at the time of acquisition.

The Company evaluates purchased loans that are not deemed impaired upon acquisition in accordance with the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") ASC 310-20, Receivables - Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs. The fair value premium or discount on these loans is amortized into interest income over the weighted average life of the loans using a level yield method. Interest income is accrued at the rate specified in the individual loan agreements based on the unpaid principal balance ("UPB").

For loans accounted for under ASC 310-20, we periodically evaluate whether all contractual payments will be collected as scheduled according to the contractual terms. We incorporate the probable recovery of such payments resulting from Federal Housing Administration ("FHA") insurance in this analysis, as applicable. We evaluate these loans on a periodic basis to ensure a carrying value of the lower of cost or fair value. We recognized no loan impairments for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014.

We periodically evaluate whether our Loans held for investment, including individual loans and pools of loans, should be placed on non-accrual status. All of our Loans held for investment remained on accrual status for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014.

The Company evaluates purchased impaired loans in accordance with the provisions of ASC 310-30, Receivables - Loans and Debt Securities Acquired with Deteriorated Credit Quality. Purchased loans are considered impaired if there is evidence of credit deterioration since origination and if it is probable that not all contractually required payments will be collected.

For impaired loans accounted for under ASC 310-30, we continue to estimate cash flows expected to be collected, adjusted for expected prepayments, on pools of loans sharing common risk characteristics which are treated in the aggregate when applying various valuation techniques. We evaluate at each balance sheet date whether the present value of our pools of loans determined using the effective interest rates has decreased and, if so, recognize a provision for loan loss. For any increases in cash flows expected to be collected, we reduce any loss provisions previously recorded, if applicable, and then adjust the amount of accretable yield recognized on a prospective basis over the pool’s remaining life. We recognized no provisions for loan loss nor any adjustments to the amount of the accretable yield for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Organization

Organization

Home Loan Servicing Solutions, Ltd. and its wholly owned subsidiaries (collectively referred to throughout as “HLSS”, “us”, “our”, “we” or the “Company”) focus on acquiring mortgage servicing rights and the related servicing advances, Loans held for investment and other residential mortgage-related assets ("Residential Mortgage Assets").

Basis of Presentation and Use of Estimates

We prepared the accompanying unaudited Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with the instructions of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) to Form 10-Q for interim financial statements. In our opinion, the accompanying unaudited financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring accruals, necessary for a fair presentation. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires that we make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates. Material estimates that are particularly significant relate to our fair value measurements of Notes receivable – Rights to MSRs and of Loans held for investment.

Principles of Consolidation

Our financial statements include the accounts of Home Loan Servicing Solutions, Ltd. and its wholly owned subsidiaries as well as four variable interest entities (“VIE”) of which we are the primary beneficiary. We eliminate intercompany accounts and transactions in consolidation.

We evaluate each special purpose entity (“SPE”) for classification as a VIE. When a SPE meets the definition of a VIE and we determine that HLSS is the primary beneficiary, we include the SPE in our Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Our Match funded advances are in two SPEs along with related Match funded liabilities (the "Match Funded Advances SPEs"). We determined that these SPEs are VIEs of which we are the primary beneficiaries. The accounts of these SPEs are included in our Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Match funded advances on loans serviced for others result from our transfers of residential loan servicing advances to SPEs in exchange for cash. The SPEs issue debt supported by collections on the transferred advances. We made these transfers under the terms of our advance facility agreements. These transfers do not qualify for sale accounting because we retain control over the transferred assets. As a result, we account for these transfers as financings and classify the transferred advances on our Interim Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as Match funded advances and the related liabilities as Match funded liabilities. We use collections on the Match funded advances pledged to the SPEs to repay principal and to pay interest and the expenses of the SPEs. Holders of the debt issued by the SPEs can look only to the assets of the entity itself for satisfaction of the debt and have no recourse against HLSS.

Our Loans held for investment are in two SPEs along with related Other borrowings (the "Mortgage Loans SPEs"). We determined that these SPEs are VIEs of which we are the primary beneficiaries. The accounts of these SPEs are included in our Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Loans held for investment are transferred to SPEs in exchange for cash, and the SPEs issue debt collateralized by these loans.

Holders of the debt issued by the SPEs can look beyond the assets of the SPEs for satisfaction of the debt and therefore have recourse against HLSS.

RESTATEMENT

Subsequent to the filing of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013, (the “Original Form 10-K”), with the SEC on February 6, 2014, we determined that the Notes receivable - Rights to MSRs and related interest income were materially misstated due to the fact that we did not adjust the Notes receivable - Rights to MSRs to the best estimate of fair value and did not include the effect of such fair value adjustments in the application of the interest method in accounting for the Notes receivable - Rights to MSRs. As a result, the following financial statement amounts have been restated from amounts previously reported.

The following table summarizes the effects of the restatement on the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2013 (as restated on the Form 10-K/A filed on August 18, 2014).

(1) The effective date of the swap is the date from which monthly net settlements begin to be computed.

(2) Projected net settlements for the next twelve months total approximately $778 of payments to the counterparty.

(3) There was an unrealized pre-tax loss of $1,778 and $2,005 related to our interest rate swaps included in AOCI for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, and an unrealized pre-tax gains of $5,340 and $5,353 related to our interest rate swaps included in AOCI for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013. Given the current and expected effectiveness of our hedging arrangements, we do not expect any reclassifications from AOCI into earnings associated with hedging ineffectiveness related to these hedging arrangements during the next twelve months.

Share-based Compensation

Share-based Compensation

SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION

On December 5, 2013, the Board of Directors of HLSS adopted the 2013 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), subject to the approval of the shareholders. At the Annual Meeting of Shareholders on May 13, 2014, the shareholders approved the Plan.

The Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee, which may authorize the award of options, restricted shares, share appreciation rights, performance awards or other share-based awards to our employees of an amount not exceeding 2,000,000 ordinary shares, in aggregate. Currently, other than share options with vesting terms, the Compensation Committee does not expect to grant any restricted shares, share appreciation rights, performance awards or other share-based awards under the Plan. Each option award under the Plan is, and will be, evidenced by a written award agreement between the participant and HLSS. The award agreement describes the award and states the terms and conditions to which the award is subject.

Outstanding share-based compensation currently consists of stock option grants that are a combination of service-based and market-based options.

Service-Based Options. These options are granted at fair value on the date of grant. The options generally vest evenly in four annual increments beginning with the first anniversary of the agreement date, and the options generally expire on the earlier of 10 years after the date of grant or following termination of service. A total of 640,000 service-based awards were outstanding at June 30, 2014.

Market-Based Options. These options are subject to market-based vesting. One-fourth of the options will vest immediately on the first date as of which both of the following market-based criteria have been met: i) the per share price must be equal to or exceed 1.25 times the strike price and ii) investors must achieve a 12.5% annualized rate of return from the agreement date based on the strike price and dividends received. Thereafter, the remaining options will vest evenly on each of the next three anniversaries of the initial date of vesting. A total of 640,000 market-based awards were outstanding at June 30, 2014.

Both Service-Based Options and Market-Based Options that are vested and outstanding will be entitled to receive payments equal to the amount of the then current dividend as if the underlying shares were issued at the ex-dividend date. No expense related to this feature was recognized during the period ending June 30, 2014.

The fair value of the Service-Based Options was determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, and a lattice (binomial) model was used to determine the fair value of the Market-Based Options using the following assumptions as of the grant date:

	For the six months ended June 30, 2014
	Black-Scholes		Binomial
Risk-free interest rate	2.13	%	0.13% - 3.23%
Expected stock price volatility	19.62	%	19.62	%
Expected dividend yield	7.82	%	7.82	%
Expected option life (in years)	6.5		2.7 - 3.5
Contractual life (in years)	10		10
Fair Value	$0.87 - $1.27		$0.53 - $1.43

Share-based compensation expense is recorded net of an estimated forfeiture rate of 4%.

A summary of option activity under the Plan for the six months ended June 30, 2014, is presented below.

	Shares	Weighted Average Exercise Price		Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Term (in years)	Aggregate Intrinsic Value (1)
Outstanding at December 31, 2013	—	$	—	0	$	—
Granted	1,280,000	22.90
Exercised	—	—
Forfeited or expired	—	—
Outstanding at June 30, 2014	1,280,000	$	22.90	9.5	$	—
Exercisable at June 30, 2014	—	$	—	0	$	—

(1) Intrinsic value represents the difference between the Company’s closing stock price and the exercise price multiplied by the number of options outstanding and exercisable at a price below that closing price.

The weighted-average grant-date fair value of options granted during 2014 is $0.75 per share. As of June 30, 2014, the Company has $0.8 million of total unrecognized compensation expense related to non-vested share option awards granted under the Plan. The total expense is expected to be recognized over the weighted-average requisite service period of 3.4 years. No shares vested during the period ended June 30, 2014.

No option awards, whether vested or non-vested, were outstanding for the six months ended June 30, 2013, and no option activity occurred during this period.

(1) Each term note and variable funding note issuance has four classes, an A, B, C, and D class, with the exception of the Series 2014 T3 Term Notes which have only an A and B class. The Series 2014 T3 Class B Term Notes may be exchanged for notes in three separate classes: BX, CX and DX.

(2) The weighted average interest rate at June 30, 2014, was 1.85%. We pay interest monthly.

(3) The amortization date is the date on which the revolving period ends under each advance facility note and repayment of the outstanding balance must begin if the note is not renewed or extended. The maturity date is the due date for all outstanding balances. After the amortization date, all collections that represent the repayment of Match funded advances pledged to the facilities must be applied to reduce the balance of the note outstanding, and any new advances are ineligible to be financed.

(4) Our unused borrowing capacity is available to us if we have additional eligible collateral to pledge and meet other borrowing conditions. We pay a 0.50% or 0.625% fee on the unused borrowing capacity, which varies by facility.

(5) On January 17, 2014, we completed the issuance of $600,000 of one-year and $200,000 of three-years term notes. On June 18, 2014, we completed the issuance of $400,000 of four-year term notes. We retained $37,000 of these notes.

(6) These Variable Funding Notes were amended on February 14, 2014, to extend the amortization and maturity dates by a year and to reduce the interest rate spreads compared to December 31, 2013. Variable Funding Note balances fluctuate based on Match funded advance activity and our ability to issue fixed rate term notes.

(7) The Class A Term Money Market Fund Note and Class A Draw Money Market Fund Note have a combined maximum borrowing capacity of $265,000. By design, the Class A Term Money Market Fund Note balance is reduced at scheduled times and there is an equally offsetting increase to the Class A Draw Money Market Fund Note. The combined balance of these notes wasequal to$265,000atJune 30, 2014, andDecember 31, 2013. The amortization date for the Class A Term Money Market Fund Note represents the commencement date for scheduled repayments.

Earnings Per Share

EARNINGS PER SHARE ("EPS")

Basic EPS is computed by dividing reported net income by weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during each period. Diluted EPS is computed by dividing reported net income by the weighted average ordinary shares and all potential dilutive ordinary shares outstanding during the period.

The following table presents the computation of per share earnings for the three and six months ended June 30:

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

We estimate fair value based on a hierarchy that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs. Observable inputs are inputs that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. The fair value hierarchy prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques into three broad levels and gives the highest priority to Level 1 inputs and the lowest to Level 3 inputs.

The three broad categories are:

• Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

• Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument; and

• Level 3: Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

Where available, we utilize quoted market prices or observable inputs rather than unobservable inputs to determine fair value. We classify assets and liabilities in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

We describe the methodologies that we use and key assumptions that we make to assess the fair value of instruments in more detail below.

Notes Receivable – Rights to MSRs

We established the value of the Notes receivable – Rights to MSRs based on an appraisal prepared with the assistance of an independent valuation firm. This appraisal is prepared on a quarterly basis. Significant inputs into the valuation include the following:

• Discount rates reflecting the risk of earning the future income streams from the Notes receivable – Rights to MSRs ranging from 15% to 22%;

• Interest rate used for calculating the cost of financing servicing advances of 1-Month LIBOR plus 3.50%;

• Mortgage loan prepayment projections ranging from 12% to 28% of the related mortgage lifetime projected prepayment rate; and

• Delinquency rate projections ranging from 15% to 35% of the aggregate unpaid balance of the underlying mortgage loans.

The independent valuation firm reviewed the collateral attributes and the historical payment performance of the underlying mortgage servicing portfolio and compared them with similar mortgage servicing portfolios and with standard industry mortgage performance benchmarks to arrive at the assumptions set forth above. The selected collateral attributes and performance comparisons utilized were the voluntary prepayment performance, delinquency and foreclosure performance, operational cost comparison, average loan balance, weighted average coupon and note rate distribution, loan product type classification, geographic distribution and servicing advance behavior.

The unobservable inputs that have the most significant effect on the fair value of Notes receivable – Rights to MSRs are the mortgage loan prepayment rate projections and delinquency rate projections; however, any significant increase (decrease) in discount rates, interest rates, mortgage loan prepayment projections or delinquency rate projections, each in isolation, would result in a substantially lower (higher) valuation.

Derivative Financial Instruments

Our derivatives are not exchange-traded, and therefore quoted market prices or other observable inputs are not available. The fair value of our interest rate swap agreements is based on certain information provided by third-party pricing sources. Third-party valuations are derived from proprietary models based on inputs that include yield curves and contractual terms such as fixed interest rates and payment dates. We have not adjusted the information obtained from the third-party pricing sources; however, we review this information to ensure that it provides a reasonable basis for estimating fair value. Our review is designed to identify information that appears stale, information that has changed significantly from the prior period and other indicators that the information may not be accurate. We determined that potential credit and counterparty risks had an immaterial impact on the valuation of our derivatives. See Note 11 for additional information on our derivative financial instruments.

The following tables present assets by level within the fair value hierarchy that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

At June 30, 2014:	Fair Value		Level 1		Level 2		Level 3

(1) Changes in fair value of the Notes receivable – Rights to MSRs are included in Interest income in the Interim Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. See Note 12 for additional information regarding our Interest income.

(2) These pre-tax gains (losses) are attributable to derivatives still held at June 30, 2014, and June 30, 2013, respectively.

The following table shows the effect on the fair value of the Notes receivable – Rights to MSRs assuming adverse changes to certain key assumptions used in valuing these assets at June 30, 2014, and December 31, 2013:

	Discount Rate			Prepayment Speeds			Delinquency Rates
	100 bps adverse change			10% adverse change			10% adverse change
At June 30, 2014:
Notes receivable – Rights to MSRs	$	(12,527	)	$	(21,521	)	$	(68,579	)

	Discount Rate			Prepayment Speeds			Delinquency Rates
	100 bps adverse change			10% adverse change			10% adverse change
At December 31, 2013:
Notes receivable – Rights to MSRs	$	(12,988	)	$	(22,537	)	$	(72,560	)

This sensitivity analysis above assumes a change is made to one key input while holding all other inputs constant. As many of these inputs are correlated, a change in one input will likely impact other inputs, which would ultimately impact the overall valuation.

The following table provides additional quantitative information on our significant inputs used for valuing our Notes receivable – Rights to MSRs as of June 30, 2014, and December 31, 2013, respectively:

At June 30, 2014:

Asset	Unobservable Input	Low		High		Weighted Average
Notes receivable – Rights to MSRs	Discount Rate	15	%	22	%	19	%
	Prepayment Speeds	12	%	28	%	18	%
	Delinquency Rates	15	%	35	%	24	%

At December 31, 2013:

Asset	Unobservable Input	Low		High		Weighted Average
Notes receivable – Rights to MSRs	Discount Rate	15	%	22	%	20	%
	Prepayment Speeds	12	%	28	%	19	%

Total financial liabilities	$	6,643,655	$	6,646,822	$	6,059,008	$	6,047,325

Match Funded Advances

The carrying value of our Match funded advances approximates fair value. This is because our Match funded advances have no stated maturity, generally are realized within a relatively short period of time and do not bear interest. The fair value measurements for Match funded advances are categorized as Level 3.

Loans Held for Investment

The fair value estimate of these loans was determined by using internal cash flow models that require us to make assumptions regarding various inputs, including default rates, delinquency rates, interest rates and prepayment speeds. Additionally, we make assumptions related to severity for our RPLs. The fair value measurements for Loans held for investment are categorized as Level 3.

Match Funded Liabilities

Match funded liabilities include various series of term notes, variable funding notes and other fixed rate liabilities. The fair value estimate of the Company’s term notes and other fixed rate liabilities was determined by using broker quotes. We concluded that no adjustments were required to the quoted prices. The level of trading, both in number of trades and amount of term notes traded, is at a level that the Company believes broker quotes to be a reasonable representation of the current fair market value of the term notes. All other Match funded liabilities are short term in nature, and the carrying value generally approximates the fair value. The fair value measurements for Match funded liabilities are categorized as Level 3.

Other Borrowings

Other borrowings include a senior secured term loan facility, EBO Facility, RPL Facility and a servicing advance note facility (the "Note Facility"). The fair value estimate of the senior secured term loan facility was determined by using broker quotes. We concluded that no adjustments were required to the quoted price. Trading is at a level that the Company believes broker quotes to be a reasonable representation of the current fair market value of this facility. The EBO Facility, the RPL Facility and the Note Facility are short term in nature, and the carrying values generally approximate the fair values. The fair value measurements for these facilities are categorized as Level 3.

INCOME TAXES

Income taxes were provided for based upon the tax laws and rates in the countries in which we conduct operations and earn related income. Our effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, was 0.0% and 0.1% (0.1% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013). We are a Cayman Islands exempted company, and the Cayman Islands currently levies no taxes on individuals or corporations based upon profits, income, gains or appreciation.

The Company recognizes the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities. As of June 30, 2014, the Company did not have any unrecognized tax benefits related to the current period or any previous period. We recognize interest and penalties accrued on any unrecognized tax benefits as a component of income tax expense. We did not accrue interest or penalties associated with any unrecognized tax benefits, nor was any interest expense or penalty recognized during the period or in previous periods.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]

Derivative Financial Instruments

DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

We are party to interest rate swap agreements that we recognize on our Interim Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet at fair value within Other assets and Other liabilities. On the date we entered into the interest rate swap agreements, we designated and documented them as hedges of the variable cash flows payable for floating rate interest expense on our borrowings (cash flow hedge). To qualify for hedge accounting, a derivative must be highly effective at reducing the risk associated with the hedged exposure. In addition, the documentation must include the risk management objective and strategy. On a quarterly basis we assess and document the derivatives’ effectiveness and expected effectiveness in offsetting the changes in the fair value or the cash flows of the hedged items. To assess effectiveness, we use statistical methods, such as regression analysis, as well as nonstatistical methods including dollar-offset analysis. For a cash flow hedge, to the extent that it is effective, we record changes in the estimated fair value of the derivative in accumulated other comprehensive income ("AOCI"). We subsequently reclassify these changes in estimated fair value to net income in the same period that the hedged transaction affects earnings and in the same financial statement category as the hedged item.

If a derivative instrument in a cash flow hedge is terminated or the hedge designation is removed, we reclassify related amounts in AOCI into earnings in the same period during which the cash flows that were hedged affect earnings. In a period where we determine that it is probable that a hedged forecasted transaction will not occur, such as variable-rate interest payments on debt that has been repaid in advance, any related amounts in AOCI are reclassified into earnings in that period.

Because our current derivative agreements are not exchange-traded, we are exposed to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the counterparty to the agreement. We control this risk through counterparty credit monitoring procedures including financial analysis, dollar limits and other monitoring procedures. The notional amounts of our contracts do not represent our exposure to credit loss. See Note 3 for additional information regarding our use of derivatives.

Interest Rate Management

We executed a hedging strategy designed to mitigate the impact of changes in variable interest rates on the excess of interest rate sensitive liabilities over interest rate sensitive assets. We entered into interest rate swaps to hedge against the effects of a change in 1-Month LIBOR.

The following tables provide information about our interest rate swaps at June 30, 2014, and December 31, 2013, respectively:

(1) The effective date of the swap is the date from which monthly net settlements begin to be computed.

(2) Projected net settlements for the next twelve months total approximately $778 of payments to the counterparty.

(3) There was an unrealized pre-tax loss of $1,778 and $2,005 related to our interest rate swaps included in AOCI for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, and an unrealized pre-tax gains of $5,340 and $5,353 related to our interest rate swaps included in AOCI for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013. Given the current and expected effectiveness of our hedging arrangements, we do not expect any reclassifications from AOCI into earnings associated with hedging ineffectiveness related to these hedging arrangements during the next twelve months.

(1) Each term note and variable funding note issuance has four classes, an A, B, C, and D class, with the exception of the Series 2014 T3 Term Notes which have only an A and B class. The Series 2014 T3 Class B Term Notes may be exchanged for notes in three separate classes: BX, CX and DX.

(2) The weighted average interest rate at June 30, 2014, was 1.85%. We pay interest monthly.

(3) The amortization date is the date on which the revolving period ends under each advance facility note and repayment of the outstanding balance must begin if the note is not renewed or extended. The maturity date is the due date for all outstanding balances. After the amortization date, all collections that represent the repayment of Match funded advances pledged to the facilities must be applied to reduce the balance of the note outstanding, and any new advances are ineligible to be financed.

(4) Our unused borrowing capacity is available to us if we have additional eligible collateral to pledge and meet other borrowing conditions. We pay a 0.50% or 0.625% fee on the unused borrowing capacity, which varies by facility.

(5) On January 17, 2014, we completed the issuance of $600,000 of one-year and $200,000 of three-years term notes. On June 18, 2014, we completed the issuance of $400,000 of four-year term notes. We retained $37,000 of these notes.

(6) These Variable Funding Notes were amended on February 14, 2014, to extend the amortization and maturity dates by a year and to reduce the interest rate spreads compared to December 31, 2013. Variable Funding Note balances fluctuate based on Match funded advance activity and our ability to issue fixed rate term notes.

(7) The Class A Term Money Market Fund Note and Class A Draw Money Market Fund Note have a combined maximum borrowing capacity of $265,000. By design, the Class A Term Money Market Fund Note balance is reduced at scheduled times and there is an equally offsetting increase to the Class A Draw Money Market Fund Note. The combined balance of these notes wasequal to$265,000atJune 30, 2014, andDecember 31, 2013. The amortization date for the Class A Term Money Market Fund Note represents the commencement date for scheduled repayments.

Investments, Debt and Equity Securities [Abstract]

Loans Held for Investment

LOANS HELD FOR INVESTMENT

Our Loans held for investment relate to GNMA EBO loans and RPLs, which are our only classes of Loans held for investment.

	June 30, 2014		December 31, 2013
GNMA EBO loans	$	526,253	$	—
RPLs	275,838		—
Loans held for investment	$	802,091	$	—

Upon acquisition, the Company reviews Loans held for investment to determine if there is evidence of credit deterioration since origination in accordance with the provisions of ASC 310-30, Loans and Debt Securities Acquired with Deteriorated Credit Quality. Any loan acquired is considered impaired if there is evidence of credit deterioration since origination and if it is probable that not all contractually required payments will be collected.

We account for acquired Loans held for investment that are not deemed to be impaired at acquisition under ASC 310-20, Receivables - Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs.

GNMA EBO Loans

We account for our GNMA EBO loans under ASC 310-20, Receivables - Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs. In accordance with ASC 310-20-30-5, these loans are recorded at the UPB plus a purchase premium, which is the amount we paid to purchase these loans. The purchase premium is amortized into interest income using the interest method of accounting. These loans are FHA insured, making the collectability of the entire balance reasonably assured. We evaluate whether all contractual payments will be collected as scheduled according to contractual terms, including the probable recovery of such payments from FHA insurance. There were no allowances for loan losses related to the GNMA EBO loans at June 30, 2014.

See Note 2, Asset Acquisitions, for further discussion the GNMA EBO Transaction.

RPLs

We account for our RPLs under ASC 310-30, Loans and Debt Securities Acquired with Deteriorated Credit Quality. The Company evaluated all of the loans purchased in the RPL Transaction in accordance with the provisions of ASC 310-30, and all RPLs were deemed to be impaired loans at acquisition. The RPLs are not insured against loss, and the borrowers, all of which have been previously delinquent, may be more likely to be in economic distress, to have become unemployed or bankrupt or to otherwise be unable or unwilling to make payments when due. Also, a portion of these loans feature future step-ups in the required payment.

The RPLs were grouped into pools based on common risk characteristics, and the pools were recorded at their estimated fair values which incorporated estimated credit losses at the acquisition date. The RPL pools are systematically reviewed by the Company to determine the risk of losses that may exceed those identified at the time of the acquisition. No individual RPLs were classified as nonperforming assets at June 30, 2014 as the loans are accounted for on a pooled basis, and the pools are considered to be performing. No RPL pools evaluated by the Company were determined to have experienced impairment in the estimated credit quality or cash flows since acquisition.

The amount of the estimated cash flows expected to be received from the RPL pools in excess of the fair values recorded for the RPL pools is referred to as the accretable yield. The accretable yield is recognized as interest income over the estimated lives of the RPL pools. To date, the Company has made no adjustments to the accretable yield.

Changes in the carrying amount of the accretable yield for RPL pools were as follows for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014:

	Accretable Yield			Carrying Amount
Beginning balance	$	—		$	—
Additions	146,885			276,248
Accretable yield adjustments	—			—
Accretion	(159		)	159
Payments and other reductions, net	—			(569		)
Ending balance	$	146,726		$	275,838

The outstanding balance of RPLs, including outstanding principal, interest, fees, penalties and other amounts due, was $397.4 million at June 30, 2014.

At the acquisition date of the RPLs, the contractually required payments receivable was $622.1 million, and the fair value was $276.2 million. The cash flows expected to be collected were $423.1 million at the acquisition date.

See Note 2, Asset Acquisitions, for further discussion the RPL Transaction.

Asset Acquisitions

ASSET ACQUISITIONS

On March 3, 2014, we acquired Government National Mortgage Association ("GNMA") loans with UPB of $549,411 from Ocwen Financial Corporation (together with its subsidiaries, collectively "Ocwen"). Because these loans earn interest at a rate that is higher than current market rates, the loans were purchased at a premium to par, resulting in a total purchase price of $556,618. We amortize the purchase price premium over the expected life of the portfolio using the interest method of accounting. These loans are insured by the FHA, making the collectability of the entire balance of these loans reasonably assured. We account for these GNMA loans as Loans held for investment.

Ocwen initially acquired these loans through the GNMA early buy-out (“EBO”) program, which allows servicers of federally insured or guaranteed loans to buy delinquent loans from the applicable loan securitization pools. We also financed the GNMA EBO advances related to the GNMA EBO loans, and we account for this arrangement as a financing transaction because Ocwen retained title and all other rights and rewards associated with the GNMA EBO advances. Collectively, the purchase of GNMA EBO loans and financing of the related advances are referred to as the “GNMA EBO Transaction.”

Our GNMA EBO loans are in a Mortgage Loans SPE along with the related financing facility (the "EBO Facility"), which is more fully described in Note 8. The accounts of this SPE are included in our Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. These transfers to the SPE do not qualify for sale accounting because we retain control over the transferred assets. As a result, we account for these transfers as financings and classify the transferred GNMA EBO loans on our Interim Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as Loans held for investment and the related liabilities as Other borrowings. We use collections on the GNMA EBO loans pledged to the SPE to repay principal and to pay interest and the expenses of the entity. The holders of the debt issued by this SPE can look beyond the assets of the SPE for satisfaction of the debt and therefore have recourse against HLSS. It is our expectation that, since our GNMA EBO loans are insured by the FHA, the cash flows of this SPE will be sufficient to meet all claims of the debt holders. HLSS is responsible for making any principal or interest payments to the debt holders not covered by the cash flows of the SPE.

On June 27, 2014, HLSS purchased a portfolio of re-performing mortgage loans ("RPLs") from a third party seller with a UPB of $396,939 (the "RPL Transaction"). Because RPLs have historically experienced default conditions, are not insured by any agency and earn interest at a rate that is lower than current market rates, the loans were purchased at a discount of par equivalent to thirty percent of UPB, resulting in a total purchase price of $276,248. In accordance with ASC 310-30, we will recognize the excess cash flows over the purchase price as interest income on a level yield basis.

Ocwen serviced the RPLs prior to the RPL Transaction, and Ocwen remains the servicer subsequent to the RPL Transaction.

Our RPLs are in a Mortgage Loans SPE along with the related financing facility (the “RPL Facility”), which is more fully described in Note 8. The accounts of this SPE are included in our Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. The transfers to the SPE do not qualify for sale accounting because we retain control over the transferred assets. As a result, we account for these transfers as financing and classify the transferred RPLs on our Interim Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as Loans held for investment and the related liabilities as Other borrowings. We use collections on the RPLs pledged to the SPE to repay principal and to pay interest and the expenses of the entity. The holders of the debt issued by this SPE can look beyond the assets of the SPE for satisfaction of the debt and therefore have recourse against HLSS. It is our expectation that the cash flows of this SPE will be sufficient to meet all claims of the debt holders. HLSS is responsible for making any principal or interest payments to the debt holders not covered by the cash flows of the SPE.

During the six months ended June 30, 2013, we executed two asset purchases from Ocwen wherein we used cash on-hand and Match funded liabilities to purchase the following:

• the contractual right to receive the servicing fees related to mortgage servicing rights with UPB of approximately $26.5 billion, which we account for as Notes receivable - Rights to MSRs; and

• the outstanding servicing advances associated with the related pooling and servicing agreements.
