YETI Reports Second Quarter 2025 Results

AUSTIN, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--YETI Holdings, Inc. ('YETI') (NYSE: YETI) today announced its financial results for the second quarter ended June 28, 2025. YETI reports its financial performance in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ('GAAP') and as adjusted on a non-GAAP basis. Please see 'Non-GAAP Financial Measures' and 'Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Information' below for additional information and reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most comparable GAAP financial measures. Second Quarter 2025 Highlights Net sales decreased 4%, reflecting a more promotional drinkware market environment, caution from consumers and our retail partners, and inventory constraints driven by our supply chain transition. EPS increased 3% to $0.61; Adjusted EPS decreased 6% to $0.66, inclusive of $0.07 net impact of higher tariff costs in the second quarter of 2025 Repurchased 0.7 million shares for $23 million Matt Reintjes, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, 'We are making excellent progress on our long-term strategic priorities—accelerating innovation, expanding our global brand, and diversifying our supply chain. We are seeing these strategies play out in the market with momentum in product innovation and diversification across our portfolio with notable strength in bags, our global expansion with exceptional performance in the UK and Europe and strong end user demand in Canada and Australia, and the transformational shift in our supply chain. Our brand continues to expand, connecting both domestically and, importantly, globally. Amidst a disruptive macroeconomic environment, we are positioning YETI to deliver long-term, sustainable top and bottom-line growth supported by a strong financial foundation. Our strong balance sheet and robust free cash flow generation are enabling investment in growth initiatives while also advancing our capital allocation priorities, including share repurchases. We exited the second quarter with encouraging momentum across our key growth drivers, and we are seeing signs of continued improvement in the third quarter, reinforcing our confidence in the trajectory ahead.' Second Quarter 2025 Results Sales and adjusted sales both decreased 4% to $445.9 million, compared to $463.5 million during the same period last year. Direct-to-consumer ('DTC') channel sales decreased 1% to $248.6 million, compared to $250.4 million in the prior year quarter. Wholesale channel sales decreased 7% to $197.3 million, compared to $213.1 million in the same period last year, due to a decline in both Drinkware and Coolers & Equipment. Drinkware sales decreased 4% to $236.4 million, compared to $246.5 million in the prior year quarter. As expected, Drinkware growth in our international regions was more than offset by a decline in our U.S. region, reflecting a challenging market and inventory constraints driven by our supply chain transition. Coolers & Equipment sales decreased 3% to $200.6 million, compared to $205.9 million in the same period last year. Growth in hard coolers was more than offset by a decline in soft coolers during the quarter. Sales in the U.S. decreased 5% to $367.8 million, compared to $386.9 million in the prior year quarter. International sales rose 2% to $78.1 million, compared to $76.6 million in the prior year quarter reflecting strong growth in Europe and our launch in Japan. This was partially offset by conservative inventory purchases and caution from our wholesale partners in other international regions against robust consumer demand. Gross profit decreased 3% to $257.6 million, or 57.8% of sales, compared to $264.3 million, or 57.0% of sales, in the second quarter of 2024. The 80 basis points increase in gross margin was primarily due to lower product costs, selective price increases implemented in the second quarter of 2025 and the absence in the current year quarter of purchase accounting inventory step-up amortization, partially offset by higher tariff costs. Adjusted gross profit decreased 4% to $257.6 million, or 57.8% of adjusted sales, compared to $267.5 million, or 57.7% of adjusted sales, in the second quarter of 2024. The 10 basis points increase in adjusted gross margin was primarily due to lower product costs and selective price increases implemented in the second quarter of 2025, partially offset by higher tariffs. Selling, general, and administrative ('SG&A') expenses decreased 1% to $195.5 million, compared to $196.9 million in the second quarter of 2024. As a percentage of sales, SG&A expenses increased 140 basis points to 43.9% from 42.5% in the prior year period. This increase was primarily due to higher technology expenses related to our growth investments. Adjusted SG&A expenses decreased 2% to $184.4 million, compared to $187.5 million in the second quarter of 2024. As a percentage of adjusted sales, adjusted SG&A expenses increased 80 basis points to 41.3% from 40.5% in the prior year period. This increase was primarily due to higher technology expenses related to our growth investments, partially offset by lower employee costs. Operating income decreased 8% to $62.0 million, or 13.9% of sales, compared to $67.4 million, or 14.5% of sales during the prior year quarter. Adjusted operating income decreased 9% to $73.2 million, or 16.4% of adjusted sales, compared to $80.0 million, or 17.3% of adjusted sales during the same period last year. Other income increased to $5.8 million compared to other income of $0.4 million in the second quarter of 2024, primarily due to higher foreign currency gains related to intercompany balances in the current year. Net income increased 1% to $51.2 million, or 11.5% of sales, compared to $50.4 million, or 10.9% of sales in the prior year quarter; Net income per diluted share increased 3% to $0.61, compared to $0.59 in the prior year quarter. Adjusted net income decreased 7% to $55.2 million, or 12.4% of adjusted sales, compared to $59.6 million, or 12.9% of adjusted sales in the prior year quarter; Adjusted net income per diluted share decreased 6% to $0.66, compared to $0.70 per diluted share in the prior year quarter. Six Months Ended June 28, 2025 Results Sales and adjusted sales both decreased 1% to $797.0 million, compared to $804.9 million in the prior year period. DTC channel sales increased 2% to $444.8 million, compared to $438.2 million in the prior year period, primarily due to growth in Coolers & Equipment. Wholesale channel sales decreased 4% to $352.2 million, compared to $366.7 million in the same period last year, primarily due to a decline in Drinkware, partially offset by growth in Coolers & Equipment. Drinkware sales decreased 4% to $442.0 million, compared to $461.1 million in the prior year period. Drinkware growth in our international regions was more than offset by a decline in our U.S. region, reflecting a challenging market, and inventory constraints driven by our supply chain transition. Coolers & Equipment sales increased 5% to $340.8 million, compared to $325.8 million in the same period last year, primarily driven by strong performance in bags and hard coolers, partially offset by a decline in soft coolers. Sales in the U.S. decreased 4%, to $639.0 million, compared to $662.7 million in the prior year period. International sales increased 11%, to $158.0 million, compared to $142.2 million in the prior year period reflecting strong growth in Europe, Canada and our launch in Japan. The 11% increase in international sales included an FX headwind of approximately 260 basis points. Gross profit increased to $459.3 million, or 57.6% of sales, compared to $459.1 million, or 57.0% of sales, in the prior year period. The 60 basis points increase in gross margin was primarily due to lower product costs, the absence in the current year quarter of purchase accounting inventory step-up amortization, and selective price increases implemented in the second quarter of 2025, partially offset by higher tariff costs and lower mix of our Drinkware category. Adjusted gross profit decreased 1% to $458.9 million, compared to $463.9 million, in the prior year period. Adjusted gross margin was flat at 57.6%, compared to the prior year period. Lower product costs and selective price increases implemented in the second quarter of 2025 were offset by higher tariff costs and lower mix of our Drinkware category. SG&A expenses increased 3% to $375.6 million, compared to $365.9 million in the prior year period. As a percentage of sales, SG&A expenses increased 160 basis points to 47.1% from 45.5% in the prior year period. This increase was primarily due to higher technology expenses related to our growth investments, and higher employee costs related to non-cash stock-based compensation. Adjusted SG&A expenses increased 2% to $350.5 million, compared to $344.3 million in the prior year period. As a percentage of adjusted sales, adjusted SG&A expenses increased by 120 basis points to 44.0% from 42.8% in the prior year period. This increase was primarily due to higher technology expenses, related to our growth investments. Operating income decreased 10% to $83.7 million, or 10.5% of sales, compared to $93.2 million, or 11.6% of sales during the prior year period. Adjusted operating income decreased 9% to $108.4 million, or 13.6% of adjusted sales, compared to $119.6 million, or 14.9% of adjusted sales during the same period last year. The 9% decrease in adjusted operating income included an FX headwind of approximately 210 basis points. Other income of $7.1 million compared to other expense of $3.7 million in the prior year period, primarily due to foreign currency gains related to intercompany balances in the current year period versus foreign currency losses on intercompany balances in the prior year period. Net income increased 2% to $67.8 million, or 8.5% of sales, compared to $66.3 million, or 8.2% of sales in the prior year period; Net income per diluted share increased 5% to $0.81, compared to $0.77 in the prior year period. Adjusted net income decreased 9% to $81.0 million, or 10.2% of adjusted sales, compared to $88.9 million, or 11.0% of adjusted sales in the prior year period; Adjusted net income per diluted share decreased 6% to $0.97, compared to $1.03 per diluted share in the prior year period. Adjusted net income per diluted share included an FX headwind of approximately $0.02 or 220 basis points of growth. Balance Sheet and Liquidity Review Cash was $269.7 million, total debt, excluding finance leases and unamortized deferred financing fees, was $75.9 million, and our $300 million Revolving Credit Facility remained undrawn as of the end of the second quarter of 2025. Inventory decreased 10% to $342.1 million, compared to $378.3 million at the end of the prior year quarter. Capital Allocation Update Pursuant to our existing $450 million share repurchase authorization, in the second quarter of 2025, we repurchased approximately 745,000 shares of YETI's common stock on the open market for $23.0 million. Based on our current expectations, we anticipate completing approximately $200 million in share repurchases during 2025. In addition, in August 2025, we acquired certain assets, including designs, tooling, and intellectual property, related to a shaker bottle for $38 million in cash. Updated 2025 Outlook Mr. Reintjes concluded, 'Our confidence in the business and the underlying operating fundamentals supporting our full-year outlook remains unchanged. I'm particularly pleased with the execution on our ongoing supply chain transition which will meaningfully diversify our footprint and capabilities, positioning us for continued expansion and innovation driving long-term success. We are modestly lowering our top-line expectations to reflect a slightly more prolonged recovery in drinkware in the U.S. At the same time, we are raising our EPS outlook, primarily due to our strong operating execution and reflecting tariff reduction on China-sourced products, partially offset by increased tariffs on imports from other regions. As we look to the second half of 2025, we remain incredibly excited about the innovation we have planned, the continued strength and momentum of our brand, and the global opportunities we see in front of us.' For Fiscal 2025, a 53-week period, compared to a 52-week period in Fiscal 2024, YETI expects: Adjusted sales to be flat to up 2% (versus previous outlook of between 1% and 4%) including an approximately 300 basis point unfavorable impact from supply chain disruptions; Adjusted operating income as a percentage of adjusted sales between 14.0% and 14.5% (versus previous outlook of 12.0%). This outlook reflects an approximate 220 basis point net impact from higher tariff costs versus the prior year; An effective tax rate of approximately 25.5% (versus previous outlook of 26.0%; compared to 24.5% in the prior year period); Adjusted net income per diluted share between $2.34 and $2.48 (versus previous outlook of between $1.96 and $2.02) including an approximately $0.40 net unfavorable impact from higher tariff costs; Diluted weighted average shares outstanding of approximately 82.0 million (versus previous outlook of 83.7 million); Capital expenditures of approximately $50 million (versus previous outlook of $60 million), primarily to support investments in technology, new product innovation, and our supply chain; and Free cash flow between $150 million and $200 million (versus previous outlook of between $100 million and $125 million).

For more information, please visit Non-GAAP Financial Measures In addition to our results determined in accordance with GAAP, we supplement our results with non-GAAP financial measures, including adjusted net sales, adjusted gross profit, adjusted gross margin, adjusted SG&A expenses, adjusted operating income, adjusted net income, adjusted net income per diluted share (which we also refer to as adjusted EPS), free cash flow as well as adjusted gross profit, adjusted SG&A expenses, adjusted operating income and adjusted net income as a percentage of adjusted net sales. Our management uses these non-GAAP financial measures in conjunction with GAAP financial measures to measure our profitability and to evaluate our financial performance. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding the underlying operating performance of our business and are appropriate to enhance an overall understanding of our financial performance. These non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools in that they do not reflect all of the amounts associated with our results of operations as determined in accordance with GAAP. Because of these limitations, these non-GAAP financial measures should be considered along with GAAP financial performance measures. The presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. A reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures to such GAAP measures can be found below. YETI does not provide a reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP to GAAP financial measures because such reconciliations are not available without unreasonable efforts. This is due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting with reasonable certainty certain amounts that are necessary for such reconciliation, including in particular the impacts of product recalls and realized and unrealized foreign currency gains and losses reported within other expense. For the same reasons, we are unable to forecast with reasonable certainty all deductions and additions needed in order to provide a forward-looking GAAP financial measures at this time. The amount of these deductions and additions may be material and, therefore, could result in forward-looking GAAP financial measures being materially different or less than forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures.

Walker & Dunlop Reports Second Quarter 2025 Financial Results

BETHESDA, Md.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Walker & Dunlop, Inc. (NYSE: WD) (the 'Company', 'Walker & Dunlop' or 'W&D') reported quarterly total transaction volume of $14.0 billion, a 65% increase from the second quarter of the prior year, reflecting W&D's execution on the rebounding demand for financing and capital deployment in the commercial real estate market after a slow start to the year. Total revenues increased 18% to $319.2 million in the second quarter of 2025, generating a 50% increase in net income to $34.0 million, or $0.99 per diluted share, a 48% increase year over year. Second quarter 2025 adjusted EBITDA was $76.8 million, down 5% over the same period in 2024. Adjusted core EPS was down 7% year over year to $1.15. Both adjusted EBITDA and adjusted core EPS remove non-recurring and non-cash revenues and expenses. One of the biggest sources of the increases in net income and diluted EPS for the quarter was an increase in the fair value of expected net cash flows from servicing, net ("MSR income"), non-cash revenue that did not benefit adjusted EBITDA or adjusted core EPS. The Company's Board of Directors declared a dividend of $0.67 per share for the third quarter of 2025. 'Walker & Dunlop's second quarter results demonstrate terrific performance by our team in what appears to be the advent of the next commercial real estate investment cycle,' commented Walker & Dunlop Chairman and CEO, Willy Walker. "Total transaction volume increased 65% year over year, driving 18% revenue growth and a 48% rise in diluted earnings per share. We are gaining market share with our largest capital partners while broadening our Capital Markets capabilities into hospitality, data centers, and Europe. This strong performance underscores the momentum we are seeing across the capital markets as investors begin to recycle equity, refinance assets, and deploy a significant amount of capital that sat on the sidelines during the Great Tightening.' Walker continued, 'Walker & Dunlop's strategic investments, scale, and brand position us well to meet our clients' needs and grow over the next several years. We remain focused on scaling our technology and data-enabled businesses -- such as appraisals and small balance lending -- to make us more insightful to our clients and efficient as a provider of services. We expect continued growth in our Capital Markets platform as the next cycle gains momentum.' ________________________________________ (1) Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure the Company presents to help investors better understand our operating performance. For a reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA to net income, refer to the sections of this press release below titled 'Non-GAAP Financial Measures,' 'Adjusted Financial Measure Reconciliation to GAAP' and 'Adjusted Financial Measure Reconciliation to GAAP by Segment.' (2) Adjusted core EPS is a non-GAAP financial measure the Company presents to help investors better understand our operating performance. For a reconciliation of Adjusted core EPS to diluted EPS, refer to the sections of this press release below titled 'Non-GAAP Financial Measures' and 'Adjusted Core EPS Reconciliation.' Expand (1) Brokered transactions for life insurance companies, commercial banks, and other capital sources. (2) Includes debt financing volumes from Walker & Dunlop Investment Partners, Inc. ('WDIP') separate accounts. Expand DISCUSSION OF QUARTERLY RESULTS: Total transaction volume grew 65% in the second quarter of 2025, reaching $14.0 billion, reflecting broad-based strength across nearly all transaction types and underscored by our strong debt financing activity with Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac (collectively, the 'GSEs'). GSE debt financing volume increased 83% year over year, led by a 106% increase in Fannie Mae debt financing volume, one of our most-profitable products. Our year-to-date GSE lending volumes drove market share gains to 11.4%, up from 10.3% in 2024. Fannie Mae lending volumes in the second quarter included the refinancing of a $941 million loan portfolio. Large, structured transactions generate lower margins on loan origination and debt brokerage fees, net ('origination fees') and MSR income. We are seeing an increase in large transactions in the market and expect origination fee and MSR income margins to be in line with our second quarter results as we move into the second half of 2025. HUD debt financing volumes increased 55% in the second quarter of 2025, as our team continues to execute well in the market, evidenced by our ranking as the second largest HUD lender in 2024. The 64% increase in brokered debt financing volume during the second quarter of 2025 reflected the strong supply of capital to the commercial real estate transaction markets from life insurance companies, banks, commercial-backed securities, and other private capital providers amid the ongoing rebound of the commercial real estate market after a slow start to the year. Property sales volume increased 51% in the second quarter of 2025, as the macroeconomic fundamentals supporting the multifamily market; such as record supply absorptions, a significant decrease in new construction starts in most markets, and affordability of renting versus owning, continue to drive a recovery in the multifamily acquisitions market. DISCUSSION OF QUARTERLY RESULTS: Our servicing portfolio continues to grow, primarily as a result of additional Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, and HUD (collectively, 'Agency') debt financing volumes over the past 12 months, partially offset by principal paydowns and loan payoffs. During the second quarter of 2025, we added $1.7 billion of net loans to our servicing portfolio, and over the past 12 months, we added $4.6 billion of net loans to our servicing portfolio, with the growth led primarily by Fannie Mae loans. $10.9 billion of Agency loans in our servicing portfolio are scheduled to mature over the next two years. These loans, with a weighted-average servicing fee of 28.1 basis points, represent only 9% of the total Agency loans in our portfolio. Over the next five years, 50% of Agency loans will mature, providing an opportunity for us to refinance these loans in the coming years. The mortgage servicing rights ('MSRs') associated with our servicing portfolio had a fair value of $1.4 billion as of both June 30, 2025 and 2024. Assets under management totaled $18.6 billion as of June 30, 2025 and consisted of $16.0 billion of low-income housing tax credit ('LIHTC') funds managed by our affordable housing investment management team, and $1.7 billion of debt funds and $0.9 billion of equity funds managed by our registered investment advisor, WDIP. The 6% increase in assets under management was primarily driven by increases in all three fund categories. DISCUSSION OF KEY PERFORMANCE METRICS: The increases in Walker & Dunlop net income and diluted EPS were largely driven by the increase in total transaction volume during the quarter. Revenues increased 18%, while expenses only increased 13%, driving the expansion in our operating margin. The increase in net income was the primary factor in the growth of return on equity. The increase in personnel expense as a percentage of total revenues was primarily the result of the increase in commissions due to the growth in total transaction volume for the quarter. The increase in revenues significantly outpaced a 3% rise in other operating expenses, lowering our other operating expenses as a percentage of total revenues. Adjusted EBITDA decreased primarily due to decreases in placement fees and other interest income and investment management fees and an increase in personnel expense. These changes were partially offset by increases in origination fees, servicing fees, property sales broker fees, and other revenues. Adjusted core EPS decreased largely for the same reasons that adjusted EBITDA decreased. ________________________________ (1) At-risk servicing portfolio is defined as the balance of Fannie Mae Delegated Underwriting and Servicing ('DUS') loans subject to the risk-sharing formula described below, as well as a small number of Freddie Mac loans on which we share in the risk of loss. Use of the at-risk portfolio provides for comparability of the full risk-sharing and modified risk-sharing loans because the provision and allowance for risk-sharing obligations are based on the at-risk balances of the associated loans. Accordingly, we have presented the key statistics as a percentage of the at-risk portfolio. For example, a $15 million loan with 50% risk-sharing has the same potential risk exposure as a $7.5 million loan with full DUS risk sharing. Accordingly, if the $15 million loan with 50% risk-sharing were to default, we would view the overall loss as a percentage of the at-risk balance, or $7.5 million, to ensure comparability between all risk-sharing obligations. To date, substantially all of the risk-sharing obligations that we have settled have been from full risk-sharing loans. (2) Represents the maximum loss we would incur under our risk-sharing obligations if all of the loans we service, for which we retain some risk of loss, were to default and all of the collateral underlying these loans was determined to be without value at the time of settlement. The maximum exposure is not representative of the actual loss we would incur. (3) Defaulted loans represent loans in our Fannie Mae at-risk portfolio or Freddie Mac small balance pre-securitized loans ('SBL') portfolio that are probable of foreclosure or that have foreclosed and for which we have recorded a collateral-based reserve (i.e., loans where we have assessed a probable loss). Other loans that are delinquent but not foreclosed or that are not probable of foreclosure are not included here. Additionally, loans that have foreclosed or are probable of foreclosure but are not expected to result in a loss to us are not included here. Expand DISCUSSION OF KEY CREDIT METRICS: Our at-risk servicing portfolio, which is comprised of loans subject to a defined risk-sharing formula, increased primarily due to the level of Fannie Mae loans added to the portfolio during the past 12 months. We take credit risk exclusively on loans backed by multifamily assets and have no credit exposure to losses in any other sector of the commercial real estate lending market. As of June 30, 2025, eight at-risk loans were in default with an aggregate unpaid principal balance ('UPB') of $108.5 million, unchanged from March 31, 2025, compared to five at-risk loans in default with an aggregate UPB of $48.6 million as of June 30, 2024. The collateral-based reserves on defaulted loans were $8.6 million and $5.6 million as of June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The approximately 3,200 remaining loans in the at-risk servicing portfolio continue to exhibit strong credit quality, with low levels of delinquencies and strong operating performance of the underlying properties in the portfolio. During 2024, the Company received requests to repurchase five GSE loans. As of June 30, 2025, the Company has repurchased four of the loans and has a forbearance and indemnification agreement in place for the other loan. The Company foreclosed on one of the repurchased loans and now holds an Other Real Estate Owned asset. The asset not yet repurchased, which must be repurchased by March 29, 2026, has a balance of $23.2 million, net of collateral posted. All repurchased and indemnified loans are delinquent and in non-accrual status. We recorded a provision for credit losses of $1.8 million in the second quarter of 2025, primarily related to an updated loss reserve for a loan that previously defaulted, combined with a slight increase related to growth in the at-risk servicing portfolio. SECOND QUARTER 2025 FINANCIAL RESULTS BY SEGMENT Interest expense on corporate debt is determined at a consolidated corporate level and allocated to each segment proportionally based on each segment's use of that corporate debt. Income tax expense is determined at a consolidated corporate level and allocated to each segment proportionally based on each segment's income from operations, except for significant, one-time tax activities, which are allocated entirely to the segment impacted by the tax activity. The following details explain the changes in these expense items at a consolidated corporate level: Interest expense on corporate debt, which pays a variable interest rate, decreased $1.1 million, or 6% year over year, primarily due to a decrease in short-term interest rates, partially offset by an increase in the balance of corporate debt outstanding due to our refinancing our debt in the first quarter of 2025. Our corporate debt carries a floating rate of interest tied to one-month Secured Overnight Financing Rate ('SOFR') that resets monthly and changes in that index rate directly impact our cost of borrowing. Income tax expense increased $4.5 million, or 57% year over year, driven by a 64% increase in income from operations and a $0.1 million shortfall in excess tax benefits in Q2 2025 compared to a $0.4 million benefit in Q2 2024. The shortfall resulted from the change between the grant date and vesting date fair values of share-based compensation that vested during the quarter. Absent the $0.5 million difference in excess tax benefits year over year, income tax expense would have increased 49%. Partially offsetting the increase due to income from operations was a reduction in losses from noncontrolling interests year over year. Losses from noncontrolling interest increase operating income upon which tax expense is calculated.

Excludes the income and debt financing volume from Principal Lending and Investing. (2) MSR income as a percentage of Agency debt financing volume. Expand CAPITAL MARKETS – DISCUSSION OF QUARTERLY RESULTS: The Capital Markets segment includes our Agency lending, debt brokerage, property sales, appraisal and valuation services, investment banking, and housing market research businesses. The increase in origination fees was primarily the result of the increase in our overall debt financing volume, particularly the 81% increase in our Agency debt financing volume during the second quarter of 2025 (Agency debt financing volume has higher origination fees than our brokered volume), partially offset by a decline in the origination fee rate due to (i) the competitive environment in the multifamily debt financing market during the quarter and (ii) the aforementioned large Fannie Mae portfolio originated in the second quarter of 2025, with no comparable activity in the second quarter of 2024. The increase in MSR income was largely a result of the increase in Agency debt financing volume year over year, partially offset by a decrease in the Agency MSR rate. The Agency MSR rate decreased due to a decline in the weighted-average servicing fee ('WASF') on Fannie Mae originations and a decrease in the loan term. The WASF on our Fannie Mae loans declined due to (i) the aforementioned competitive environment and (ii) the aforementioned large Fannie Mae portfolio originated in the second quarter of 2025. The loan term has decreased as more of our borrowers are opting for five-year loan terms in light of the volatility and uncertainty surrounding long-term interest rates, and we expect this trend to continue. Property sales broker fees increased year over year primarily due to the 51% increase in property sales volume, partially offset by a decline in the margin on the sales due to the competitive multifamily environment noted previously. Personnel expense increased in the second quarter of 2025 primarily due to (i) an increase in variable compensation expenses, resulting from the growth in transaction volume year over year, (ii) salaries and benefits costs due largely to a 5% increase in average segment headcount, and (iii) an increase in severance expense resulting from the separation of several underperforming producers. The increase in adjusted EBITDA was primarily due to increases in origination fees and property sales broker fees, primarily driven by the improvement in transaction volumes, partially offset by increased personnel expense. SERVICING & ASSET MANAGEMENT – DISCUSSION OF QUARTERLY RESULTS: The Servicing & Asset Management segment includes loan servicing, principal lending and investing, management of third-party capital invested in tax credit equity funds focused on the affordable housing sector and other commercial real estate, and real estate-related investment banking and advisory services. The $4.6 billion net increase in the servicing portfolio over the past 12 months was the principal driver of the growth in servicing fees year over year. Investment management fees decreased primarily due to a reduction in the accrual for investment management fees from our LIHTC funds that are driven by asset dispositions within the funds, partially offset by an increase in revenues from our private credit investment management strategies. The reduction in the accrual for LIHTC investment management fees was due to fewer expected asset dispositions in 2025 than 2024 and a reduction in the expected collections for the year due to the challenging market dynamics in the LIHTC space. Placement fees and other interest income decreased primarily due to a lower average placement fee rate driven by lower short-term interest rates year over year. The increase in other revenues was primarily related to an increase in syndication fees earned from our LIHTC operations as we syndicated a large fund in 2025, resulting in a 45% increase in gross equity placed. Personnel costs increased due to a combination of incremental increases in salaries and benefits, commissions, and bonus accruals. The increase in amortization and depreciation was primarily driven by an increase in amortization of MSRs. The decrease in adjusted EBITDA was primarily related to decreases in placement fees and other interest income and investment management fees.

The Company does not allocate costs from these support functions to its other segments in presenting segment operating results. The increase in total revenues was primarily driven by (i) interest income on invested capital outstanding during the quarter, with no comparable activity in the prior year, and (ii) an increase in income from our deferred compensation plan that drives an equal and offsetting increase in personnel expense. The rise in personnel costs was driven by higher salaries and benefits associated with an 8% increase in the average segment headcount and the aforementioned increase in expense from our deferred compensation plan, partially offset by a year-over-year decline in our subjective bonus compensation accrual. YEAR-TO-DATE 2025 CONSOLIDATED OPERATING RESULTS Interest expense on corporate debt is determined at a consolidated corporate level and allocated to each segment proportionally based on each segment's use of that corporate debt. Income tax expense is determined at a consolidated corporate level and allocated to each segment proportionally based on each segment's income from operations, except for significant, one-time tax activities, which are allocated entirely to the segment impacted by the tax activity. The following details explain the changes in these expense items at a consolidated corporate level: Interest expense on corporate debt decreased $3.3 million, or 9%, from the first half of 2024, primarily due to a decrease in interest rates year over year, as our term loan carries a floating interest rate tied to one-month SOFR. Additionally, in the first quarter of 2025, we refinanced our corporate debt, increasing the debt balance outstanding and resulting in the write off of $4.2 million of unamortized debt issuance costs. The impact of this write-off is included in other operating expenses and allocated to each of the segments proportionally in the same manner as corporate debt expense. Income tax expense increased $4.2 million, or 39%, from the first half of 2024, primarily as a result of the 23% increase in income from operations and a $1.4 million shortfall in realizable excess tax benefits in the first half of 2025 compared to a $1.0 million benefit last year. The shortfall resulted from the difference between the grant date and vesting date fair values of share-based awards. Absent the $2.4 million difference in excess tax benefits year over year, income tax expense would have increased 15%. Partially offsetting the increase due to income from operations was a reduction in losses from noncontrolling interests year over year. Losses from noncontrolling interest increase operating income upon which tax expense is calculated. DISCUSSION OF YEAR-TO-DATE-RESULTS: The increase in total transaction volume was primarily driven by a 61% increase in Agency debt financing volume, a 24% increase in brokered debt financing volume, and a 54% increase in property sales volume year over year. The growth in Walker & Dunlop's net income and diluted EPS were principally attributable to a 23% increase in income from operations, driven by higher origination fees and MSR income associated with increased transaction volume, partially offset by increased compensation costs due to higher average headcount and commissions on transactions. This growth was partially offset by the year-over-year increase in our effective tax rate, as discussed above. Adjusted EBITDA decreased primarily due to decreases in placement fees and other interest income and investment management fees, coupled with an increase in personnel expense. These changes were partially offset by increases in origination fees, property sales broker fees, and servicing fees. Adjusted core EPS decreased largely for the same reasons that adjusted EBITDA decreased.

Origination fees did not grow on pace with transaction volumes because of a tightening in our origination fee rate from 90 basis points in 2024 to 84 basis points in 2025 that was driven by the aforementioned large Fannie Mae transaction originated in the second quarter of 2025 and the competitive environment in the multifamily debt financing market. The increase in MSR income is primarily attributable to a 92% increase in Fannie Mae debt financing volume, partially offset by a decline in the Agency MSR rate. The Agency MSR rate declined primarily as a result of the aforementioned large Fannie Mae transaction. Property sales broker fees increased year over year primarily due to the 54% increase in property sales volume, partially offset by a decline in the margin on the sales due to the competitive multifamily environment noted previously. The increase in other revenues was primarily related to increases in investment banking revenues and appraisal revenues year over year. The increase in investment banking revenues was primarily driven by increased M&A activity in the first half of 2025 compared to 2024. Appraisal revenues increased due to increased market activity year over year. Personnel expense increased primarily due to increases in (i) commission costs resulting from growth in transaction volume, (ii) salaries and benefits, largely related to a 4% increase in average segment headcount, and (iii) increased severance expense, primarily resulting from the separation of several underperforming producers. Partially offsetting these increases was a decrease in stock-based compensation. The increase in adjusted EBITDA was primarily due to increases in origination fees, property sales broker fees, and other revenues, partially offset by increased personnel expense.

Investment management fees decreased primarily as a result of a decline in revenue from our LIHTC funds that are driven by asset dispositions within the funds due to fewer expected dispositions in 2025 than 2024, and a reduction in the expected collections for the full year due to the challenging market dynamics in the LIHTC space. Placement fees and other interest income decreased largely as a result of lower average placement fees earned on escrow deposits due to lower short-term interest rates. The increase in personnel expense was primarily driven by increases in salaries and benefits, primarily resulting from a 7% increase in average segment headcount year over year, and several smaller increases in variable compensation such as severance expense, production bonuses, and company bonuses. Amortization and depreciation expense increased primarily as a result of an increase in the amortization of MSRs. The decrease in adjusted EBITDA was primarily related to decreases in placement fees and other interest income and investment management fees.

ABOUT WALKER & DUNLOP Walker & Dunlop (NYSE: WD) is one of the largest commercial real estate finance and advisory services firms in the United States and internationally. Our ideas and capital create communities where people live, work, shop, and play. Our innovative people, breadth of our brand, and our technological capabilities make us one of the most insightful and client-focused firms in the commercial real estate industry. NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES To supplement our financial statements presented in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles ('GAAP'), the Company uses adjusted EBITDA, adjusted core net income, and adjusted core EPS, which are non-GAAP financial measures. The presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. When analyzing our operating performance, readers should use adjusted EBITDA, adjusted core net income, and adjusted core EPS in addition to, and not as an alternative for, net income and diluted EPS. Adjusted core net income and adjusted core EPS represent net income adjusted for amortization and depreciation, provision (benefit) for credit losses, net write-offs based on the final resolution of the defaulted loans or collateral, the fair value of expected net cash flows from servicing, net, the income statement impact from periodic revaluation and accretion associated with contingent consideration liabilities related to acquired companies, goodwill impairment and other adjustments. Adjusted EBITDA represents net income before income taxes, interest expense on our corporate debt, and amortization and depreciation, adjusted for provision (benefit) for credit losses, net write-offs based on the final resolution of the defaulted loans or collateral, stock-based compensation, the fair value of expected net cash flows from servicing, net, the write-off of the unamortized balance of deferred issuance costs associated with the repayment of a portion of our corporate debt, goodwill impairment, and contingent consideration liability fair value adjustments when the fair value adjustment is a triggering event for a goodwill impairment assessment. Furthermore, adjusted EBITDA is not intended to be a measure of free cash flow for our management's discretionary use, as it does not reflect certain cash requirements such as tax and debt service payments. The amounts shown for adjusted EBITDA may also differ from the amounts calculated under similarly titled definitions in our debt instruments, which are further adjusted to reflect certain other cash and non-cash charges that are used to determine compliance with financial covenants. Because not all companies use identical calculations, our presentation of adjusted EBITDA, adjusted core net income and adjusted core EPS may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. We use adjusted EBITDA, adjusted core net income, and adjusted core EPS to evaluate the operating performance of our business, for comparison with forecasts and strategic plans and for benchmarking performance externally against competitors. We believe that these non-GAAP measures, when read in conjunction with the Company's GAAP financial information, provide useful information to investors by offering: the ability to make more meaningful period-to-period comparisons of the Company's on-going operating results; the ability to better identify trends in the Company's underlying business and perform related trend analyses; and a better understanding of how management plans and measures the Company's underlying business. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures have limitations in that they do not reflect all of the amounts associated with the Company's results of operations as determined in accordance with GAAP and that these non-GAAP financial measures should only be used to evaluate the Company's results of operations in conjunction with the Company's GAAP financial information. For more information on adjusted EBITDA, adjusted core net income, and adjusted core EPS, refer to the section of this press release below titled 'Adjusted Financial Measure Reconciliation to GAAP' and 'Adjusted Financial Measure Reconciliation to GAAP By Segment.'

We indirectly share in a portion of the risk of loss associated with interim loan joint venture managed loans through our 15% equity ownership in the joint venture. We had no exposure to risk of loss for the loans serviced directly for our interim loan joint venture partner. The balance of this line is included as a component of assets under management in the Supplemental Operating Data table. (2) At-risk servicing portfolio is defined as the balance of Fannie Mae DUS loans subject to the risk-sharing formula described below, as well as a small number of Freddie Mac loans on which we share in the risk of loss. Use of the at-risk portfolio provides for comparability of the full risk-sharing and modified risk-sharing loans because the provision and allowance for risk-sharing obligations are based on the at-risk balances of the associated loans. Accordingly, we have presented the key statistics as a percentage of the at-risk portfolio. For example, a $15 million loan with 50% risk-sharing has the same potential risk exposure as a $7.5 million loan with full DUS risk sharing. Accordingly, if the $15 million loan with 50% risk-sharing were to default, we would view the overall loss as a percentage of the at-risk balance, or $7.5 million, to ensure comparability between all risk-sharing obligations. To date, substantially all of the risk-sharing obligations that we have settled have been from full risk-sharing loans. (3) Represents the maximum loss we would incur under our risk-sharing obligations if all of the loans we service, for which we retain some risk of loss, were to default and all of the collateral underlying these loans was determined to be without value at the time of settlement. The maximum exposure is not representative of the actual loss we would incur. (4) Defaulted loans represent loans in our Fannie Mae at-risk portfolio or Freddie Mac SBL portfolio that are probable of foreclosure or that have foreclosed and for which we have recorded a collateral-based reserve (i.e. loans where we have assessed a probable loss). Other loans that are delinquent but not foreclosed or that are not probable of foreclosure are not included here. Additionally, loans that have foreclosed or are probable of foreclosure but are not expected to result in a loss to us are not included here.
