New Residential Investment Corp. ("NRZ," "New Residential," the "Company") today announced that the Company has entered into definitive agreements to sell approximately $6.1 billion face value of non-agency residential mortgage-backed securities to several buyers. These transactions are not expected to affect the Company’s previously reported estimated book value, which is expected to be down approximately 25% to 30% from $16.21 as of December 31, 2019.
"While mortgage assets have stabilized relative to recent weeks, our focus in this environment continues to be de-risking, increasing our liquidity and protecting our book value," said Michael Nierenberg, Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and President of New Residential. "In line with those goals, we sold a portfolio of non-agency securities and reduced our short-term financing exposure. We believe this measure, as well as others we have taken during the recent volatility, are crucial to preserving long term shareholder value."
The estimated book value is based primarily on management’s estimates of its assets as of March 27, 2020 and not on third party valuations. While the Company believes that such estimates are based on reasonable assumptions and information available to it as of March 27, 2020, actual results may vary, and such variations may be material. Furthermore, the extreme volatility and turmoil that currently riles the financial markets makes estimates of asset values even less reliable than usual.
