Item 1A. Risk Factors.
Our potential risks and uncertainties are presented in the section entitled "Risk Factors" contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024. We are also subject to the following risks.
As a result of the NewPoint acquisition, we will be subject to additional risks, including the following:
an adverse change in our relationships with government sponsored entities (GSEs) associated with agency mortgages (Federal National Mortgage Association, Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation, Government National Mortgage Association and U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development) could adversely affect our ability to originate and service agency mortgage loans;
we are subject to risk sharing requirements on some agency mortgage loans and associated loan losses could materially and adversely affect us;
we are subject to liquidity requirements by the GSEs and our failure to satisfy these requirements could materially and adversely affect our ability to operate our agency business;
our agency business could be adversely impacted by GSE changes in prices they are willing to pay for mortgage loans, changes in loan servicing fees or changes in other GSE arrangements with us;
terminations of servicing engagements or breaches of servicing agreements could have a material adverse effect on us;
changes in the conservatorship of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac or in any laws and regulations affecting the relationship between Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac and the U.S. federal government, could materially and adversely affect our agency business; and
our agency business will generally be operated through one or more of our taxable REIT subsidiaries and therefore will be subject to the limitations generally imposed on taxable REIT subsidiaries and will be subject to corporate income tax.
