RITM has outperformed as an mREIT in FQ1'25, despite the volatile rates/ yields triggering the impacted MSR hedging results and the subsequent top-line miss. It has also consistently reported asset inflows with higher AUMs on QoQ/ YoY basis, underscoring its growing success as an alternative asset manager. While RITM's near-term execution may be negated by the rapidly developing macroeconomic environment, the management is laser focused to grow their capabilities beyond the MSR focused mREIT.
Rithm (RITM) has been upgraded to a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy), reflecting growing optimism about the company's earnings prospects. This might drive the stock higher in the near term.

RITM is inherently undervalued, thanks to the recent selloff and macro uncertainty, with it offering interested investors with a dividend and capital appreciation story. If anything, we believe in the mREIT's stable prospects despite the higher interest rate environment, as observed in the higher earnings from the Mortgage Servicing Rights/ net interest incomes. This is on top of the potentially higher mortgage origination once borrowing costs moderate nearer to pre-pandemic level, aided by the management diversification to asset management.
