PMTW is PennyMac Mortgage Investment Trust's new 9% Senior Notes due 2030, offering high-yield distributions at the cost of substantial credit risk. PennyMac Mortgage is highly leveraged, with significant secured debt and a weak equity buffer, raising concerns for unsecured noteholders in liquidation scenarios. The increasing risk premium on each new senior note issue signals rising perceived risk by both underwriters and the market.
PennyMac Mortgage Investment Trust gets a 'Hold' rating for my initial coverage. Loan origination and servicing growth provide upside, yet high reliance on leverage and a below-investment-grade rating from Fitch make me cautious. Despite profits and solid margins, dividend growth has been negative over 10 years, making it less attractive for growth-focused investors.
PennyMac Mortgage (PMT) came out with a quarterly loss of $0.01 per share versus the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $0.38. This compares to earnings of $0.39 per share a year ago.
