PennyMac says its broker business is booming
Briefly

PennyMac is the third largest in the broker channel and aims to secure over 10% market share by the end of 2026. The company locked $7.2 billion in origination volume and reported a net income of $76.3 million in the second quarter, aided by a non-recurring tax benefit. However, underlying profitability showed weakness as pretax income declined from previous quarters. Production increased to nearly $40 billion in UPB, but expense growth and margin compression impacted pretax income. The servicing portfolio now totals $700 billion with 2.7 million customers.
