Annex A
“Our residential company is in registration right now at the SEC. And so the lawyers don’t allow us to say anything about it. All I would say it that I’m extremely optimistic that this company can become the category killer to clean up the mortgage mess and when it is appropriate and made possible for us to talk about, I’ll talk about it in some depth. We’re extremely positive on this sector and what that company has achieved.”
“The Nationstar, I think our investment in that is about $800 million in invested capital. We’ll - you can get access to kind of the research and see where that deal is expected to price, but obviously, we think that the valuation for today is actually going to be a very attractive one. I’m optimistic about the offering. We’re not selling any of our shares. And I think that the growth prospects for that business in particular are really tremendous. It had - I mean, the stated numbers, I think, were a $20 million EBITDA company four years ago. I think the first quarter run rate was expected to be about $225 million. That gives you some measure how well that company has done. And I think when you add up all the opportunities in the sector, it is very much early in the overall opportunity. So, we’ll see what that is.”
