Why Mr. Cooper Group Stock Sank While the Market Soared on Wednesday
Mr. Cooper Group (NASDAQ: COOP) released its first-quarter earnings report before market open Wednesday, and this set the tone for its stock throughout the session. Since the company missed dramatically on both the top and bottom lines the shares ended up closing down by more than 1% in value. That compared most unfavorably to the almost 2% increase of the benchmark S&P 500 index. Where to invest $1,000 right now? Our analyst team just revealed what they believe are the 10 best stocks to buy right now. Continue » In Mr. Cooper's inaugural quarter of the year, revenue totaled $560 million, quite some distance down from the $654 million of Q1 2024. The decline was steeper on the bottom line, as the company eked out a generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) net income figure of $88 million ($1.35 per share) against the year-ago profit of $204 million. Neither headline figure came close to its average analyst estimate. Pundits tracking Mr. Cooper stock were modeling over $620 million for revenue, and a per-share GAAP earnings figure of $2.98. The company, which specializes in loan services for homeowners, did see growth in several operational metrics. It said its loan servicing portfolio grew by 33% year over year to over $1.5 trillion during the quarter. Its operating income improved to $332 million from Q1 2024's $318 million. In its earnings release, management put a positive spin on the figures. CEO Jay Bray said its first-quarter performance demonstrated "the power of our platform to deliver consistent, recurring, and predictable results, as well as higher returns." That doesn't jibe with the numbers produced during the period, hence the negative investor reaction. They'll be looking for improvements in the fundamentals, and soon.

Rocket is buying Mr. Cooper for $9.4B, servicing nearly 10 million Americans — what consumers should know
In a deal set to shake up the mortgage industry, Rocket Companies is making a "bombshell" acquisition, buying Mr. Cooper, the largest mortgage servicer in America. The deal, worth $9.4 billion, will give Rocket a massive $2.1 trillion servicing portfolio, reaching nearly 10 million customers — that's roughly one in six mortgages in the United States, according to Housing Wire. I'm 49 years old and have nothing saved for retirement — what should I do? Don't panic. Here are 5 of the easiest ways you can catch up (and fast) Nervous about the stock market in 2025? Find out how you can access this $1B private real estate fund (with as little as $10) Want an extra $1,300,000 when you retire? Dave Ramsey says this 7-step plan 'works every single time' to kill debt, get rich in America — and that 'anyone' can do it The Detroit-based fintech company, which will also be acquiring real estate giant Redfin for $1.75 billion, is making waves as a powerful force in the homeownership space. Rocket's combination of servicing, home search and mortgage origination puts it in a prime spot to dominate. CEO Varun Krishna sees this merger as a way to harness data and AI to build lasting relationships with customers by meeting their needs before they even arise. But what could this mean for the future of the mortgage industry? Founded in 1985, Rocket Companies covers everything from mortgages to real estate, title services and personal finance through brands like Rocket Mortgage, Rocket Homes, Rocket Close, Rocket Money and Rocket Loans. With more than 65 million calls a year, 10 petabytes of data and a mission to 'help everyone home,' Rocket aims to lead the way in AI-powered homeownership. Mr. Cooper Group is a provider of mortgage servicing, origination and transaction services for single-family homes across the U.S. Operating under its key brands, Mr. Cooper, Xome and Rushmore Servicing, the company is known for offering a wide range of products, services and cutting-edge technologies that simplify the homeownership journey. Under the acquisition, Mr. Cooper CEO Jay Bray will step into the role of president and CEO of Rocket Mortgage, reporting directly to Krishna. The deal is expected to boost Rocket's bottom line, adding $100 million in pre-tax revenue. Rocket also projects $400 million in pre-tax cost savings through streamlined operations and tech investments. In a press release, Krishna stated, 'Servicing is a critical pillar of homeownership – alongside home search and mortgage origination,' adding, 'With the right data and AI infrastructure we will deliver the right products at the right time. That's how we build lifelong relationships, by proactively unlocking benefits and meeting needs before they arise. We look forward to welcoming Mr. Cooper's nearly 7 million clients.' The deal is set to close in the fourth quarter of 2025, and Rocket has secured a nearly $5 billion bridge loan with JPMorgan Chase, though it's not expected to draw on it unless needed.

Here's how to own it ASAP The deal is set to shake up the mortgage industry by building a tech-driven, vertically-integrated platform that aims to improve the homeownership experience. But massive consolidation without the involvement of banks can have different implications for consumers and the industry as a whole. For consumers, this could mean less market choice — but it may also mean assuming more risk. The Financial Stability Oversight Council (FSOC) published a report last year that outlined concerns about the growing dominance of nonbank mortgage servicers, including potential risks to financial stability. The report noted that because these servicers rely solely on mortgage-related revenue, any stress in the market will have a substantial effect on their income streams. For the nonbank sector as a whole, this would create liquidity vulnerabilities across the board. If a servicer fails in this scenario, a borrower would potentially face a lapse in their mortgage servicing, which may put them at risk of financial loss if no loss-mitigation activities are put in place. This could ultimately 'lead to a wave of avoidable foreclosures,' says the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. On the bright side, the deal brings millions of new customers into Rocket's fold, giving existing clients access to a wider range of services, and Mr. Cooper's client base could benefit from more personalized offerings. But while the merger aims to trim client acquisition costs, there's no guarantee these savings will mean lower fees or better rates for consumers.
