ORIGEN FINANCIAL ANNOUNCES SECOND QUARTER 2006 RESULTS;
DECLARES DIVIDEND OF $0.03 PER SHARE
SOUTHFIELD, MI -August 7, 2006 — Origen Financial, Inc. (NASDAQ: ORGN), a real estate investment trust that originates and services manufactured housing loans, today announced net income of $2.0 million, or $0.08 per share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2006, compared with net income of $1.5 million, or $0.06 per share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2005. Origen’s Board of Directors declared a dividend payment for the second quarter of $0.03 per share to be paid to holders of Origen’s common stock of record on August 18, 2006. The dividend will be paid on August 31, 2006, and will approximate $0.8 million. The Board of Directors takes into consideration the differences between net income as determined by Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) and estimated REIT taxable net income in the determination of dividend payments.
Highlights for Quarter
    Loan origination volume increased 10% to $76.8 million versus a year ago.
 
    Loans processed for third parties totaled $16.9 million for the quarter, an increase of 61% over the second quarter 2005.
 
    Total revenue increased 24% to $22.3 million versus $18.0 million for the prior year quarter.
 
    Non-performing loans as a percent of average outstanding loan principal balances improved to 0.9% at June 30, 2006, from 1.5% a year ago.
 
    Origen Servicing, Inc. received the servicer quality rating of SQ2-, or above average, from Moody’s Investors Service.
Financial Highlights
    Interest income was $18.1 million for the second quarter 2006, an increase of 23 percent, primarily due to a 27 percent increase over the same period a year ago in the average owned loan portfolio. Non-interest income increased 24 percent over the prior year’s second quarter to $4.2 million.
 
    Interest expense for the second quarter 2006 increased 54 percent to $10.3 million from $6.7 million for last year’s second quarter as a result of increased borrowings relating to loan originations, as well as continuing increases in the LIBOR benchmark rate on Origen’s warehouse line of credit.

 


Table of Contents

    The provision for credit losses was $1.2 million for the second quarter 2006 compared with $1.6 million for the same quarter 2005, a decrease of 27 percent, despite an increase in owned loan balances between the quarters of 26 percent. The decrease in provision reflects the continued improvement in the overall quality of the owned loan portfolio as well as smaller than anticipated losses to date resulting from hurricanes Rita and Katrina.
 
    Second quarter 2006 non-interest expenses were $8.8 million, a 7 percent increase compared with $8.2 million for the year ago quarter. Most of the $0.6 million increase was personnel related, primarily attributable to costs associated with Sarbanes-Oxley compliance and accrued amounts relating to merit compensation.
Portfolio Performance
At June 30, 2006, loans 60 or more days delinquent were 0.8 percent of the owned loan portfolio compared to 1.3 percent at December 31, 2005, and 1.4 percent at June 30, 2005. Net charge-offs totaled $2.1 million for both the second quarter 2006 and 2005.
Ronald A. Klein, Origen’s chief executive officer, stated, “Overall Origen had a very strong second quarter. We again increased quarterly earnings both sequentially and year-over-year, and as with last quarter increased loan originations 10 percent over the prior year period. This was accomplished despite rising interest costs and a decline in the shipments of new manufactured houses in the quarter. Additionally, our portfolio performance continues to exceed our expectations. This is the result of our strong focus on credit and servicing as evidenced by Origen receiving an SQ2- servicer rating by Moody’s. We are very proud of this achievement and are hopeful that as a result we will be able to improve our future loan securitization executions.”
Earnings Call and Webcast
A conference call and webcast have been scheduled for August 8, 2006, at 11:00 a.m. EST to discuss second quarter results. The call may be accessed on Origen’s web site at www.origenfinancial.com or by dialing 800-946-0786. A replay will be available through August 15, 2006 by dialing 888-203-1112, passcode 7122411. You may also access the replay on Origen’s website for 90 days after the event.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
Note 1 — Basis of Presentation
     The unaudited consolidated financial statements of Origen Financial, Inc. (the “Company”), have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) for interim financial reporting and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X of the Rules and Regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). However, they do not include all of the disclosures necessary for annual financial statements in conformity with US GAAP. The results of operations for the periods ended June 30, 2006 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results anticipated for the full year. Accordingly, these unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP also requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expense during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
     The accompanying consolidated financial statements reflect, in the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the interim financial statements. All such adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature.
     Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to current financial statement presentation.
Note 2 – Recent Accounting Pronouncements
  Accounting for Share-Based Payments
     In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 123(R), “Share-Based Payment,” that addresses the accounting for share-based payment transactions in which an enterprise receives employee services in exchange for (a) equity instruments of the enterprise, or (b) liabilities that are based on the fair value of the enterprise’s equity instruments or that may be settled by the issuance of such equity instruments. Under the FASB’s statement, all forms of share-based payments to employees, including employee stock options, must be treated the same as other forms of compensation by recognizing the related cost in the income statement. The expense of the award would generally be measured at fair value at the grant date. Previous accounting guidance required that the expense relating to so-called fixed plan employee stock options only be disclosed in the footnotes to the financial statements. The statement eliminates the ability to account for share-based compensation transactions using Accounting Principles Board Opinion (“APB”) No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employeesfor options granted after June 15, 2005. On April 14, 2005, the SEC announced it would permit companies to implement SFAS No. 123(R) at the beginning of their next fiscal year. The Company adopted the new rules reflected in SFAS No. 123(R) using the modified-prospective method on January 1, 2006. The effects of the adoption of SFAS No. 123(R) are discussed further in Note 8.

Note 2 – Recent Accounting Pronouncements (Continued)
  Accounting Changes and Error Corrections
     In May 2005, the FASB issued SFAS No. 154, “Accounting Changes and Error Corrections—a replacement of APB Opinion No. 20 and FASB Statement No. 3”. This statement replaces APB No. 20, “Accounting Changes”, and SFAS No. 3, “Reporting Accounting Changes in Interim Financial Statements,” and changes the requirements for the accounting for and reporting of a change in accounting principle. The statement applies to all voluntary changes in accounting principles. It also applies to changes required by an accounting pronouncement in the unusual instance that the pronouncement does not include specific transition provisions. The statement is effective for accounting changes and corrections of errors made in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005. The adoption of SFAS No. 154 on January 1, 2006 did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.
  Accounting for Certain Hybrid Instruments
     In February 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 155, “Accounting for Certain Hybrid Instruments,” which allows financial instruments that have embedded derivatives to be accounted for as a whole (eliminating the need to bifurcate the derivative from its host) if the holder elects to account for the whole instrument on a fair value basis. SFAS No. 155 is effective for all financial instruments acquired or issued after the beginning of an entity’s first fiscal year that begins after September 15, 2006. At this time, the Company does not expect the adoption of SFAS No. 155 to have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.
   Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assets
     In March 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 156, “Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assets - An Amendment of FASB Statement No. 140.” This standard amends the guidance in FASB Statement No. 140, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities. Among other requirements, SFAS No. 156 requires an entity to recognize a servicing asset or servicing liability each time it undertakes an obligation to service a financial asset by entering into a servicing contract in any of the following situations: a transfer of the servicer’s financial assets that meets the requirements for sale accounting; a transfer of the servicer’s financial assets to a qualifying special-purpose entity in a guaranteed mortgage securitization in which the transferor retains all of the resulting securities and classifies them as either available-for-sale securities or trading securities; or an acquisition or assumption of an obligation to service a financial asset that does not relate to financial assets of the servicer or its consolidated affiliates. SFAS No. 156 is effective as of the beginning of an entity’s first fiscal year that begins after September 15, 2006. At this time, the Company does not expect the adoption of SFAS No. 156 to have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.
  Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes
     In June 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 48 (FIN No. 48), “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes – an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109.” FIN No. 48 prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. FIN No. 48 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition. FIN No. 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. At this time, the Company does not expect the adoption of FIN No. 48 to have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.

Note 3 – Per Share Data
     Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS incorporates the potential dilutive effect of common stock equivalents outstanding on an average basis during the period. Dilutive common shares primarily consist of employee stock options and non-vested common stock. Certain adjustments have been made to the number of weighted average shares outstanding for diluted EPS for the three and six months ended June 30, 2005 to correct for a computation error. The adjustments had no effect on reported diluted EPS. The following table presents a reconciliation of basic and diluted EPS for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005 (in thousands, except per share data):

Note 4– Investments
     The Company follows the provisions of SFAS No. 115, “Accounting For Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities,” and the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (“AICPA”) Statement of Position 03-3 (“SOP 03-3”), “Accounting for Certain Loans or Debt Securities Acquired in a Transfer,” in reporting its investments. The securities are carried on the Company’s balance sheet at an amortized cost of $41.5 million at June 30, 2006, which approximates their fair value.
     Investments Accounted for Under the Provisions of SFAS No. 115
     The carrying value of investments accounted for under the provisions of SFAS No. 115 was approximately $37.9 million at June 30, 2006 and is included in investments in the consolidated balance sheet. These investments consisted of three asset-backed securities with principal amounts of $32.0 million, $6.8 million and $8.6 million, respectively, at June 30, 2006. The securities are collateralized by manufactured housing loans and are classified as held-to-maturity. They have contractual maturity dates of July 28, 2033, December 28, 2033 and December 28, 2033, respectively. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2006, the Company did not purchase or sell any securities. As prescribed by the provisions of SFAS No. 115 the Company has both the intent and ability to hold the securities to maturity. The securities will not be sold in response to changing market conditions, changing fund sources or terms, changing availability and yields on alternative investments or other asset liability management reasons. The securities are regularly measured for impairment through the use of a discounted cash flow analysis based on the historical performance of the underlying loans that collateralize the securities. If it is determined that there has been a decline in fair value below amortized cost and the decline is other-than–temporary, the cost basis of the security is written down to fair value as a new cost basis and the amount of the write-down is included in earnings. No impairment was recorded relating to these securities during the three and six months ended June 30, 2006.

Note 4– Investments (Continued)
     Investments Accounted for Under the Provisions of SOP 03-3
     Debt securities acquired with evidence of deterioration of credit quality since origination are accounted for under the provisions of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (“AICPA”) Statement of Position 03-3 (“SOP 03-3”), “Accounting for Certain Loans or Debt Securities Acquired in a Transfer.” The carrying value of debt securities accounted for under the provisions of SOP 03-3 was approximately $3.6 million at June 30, 2006 and is included in investments in the consolidated balance sheet. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2006, the Company did not purchase or sell any securities. The securities are regularly measured for impairment through the use of a discounted cash flow analysis based on the historical performance of the underlying loans that collateralize the securities. If it is determined that there has been a decline in fair value below amortized cost and the decline is other-than–temporary, the cost basis of the security is written down to fair value as a new cost basis and the amount of the write-down is included in earnings. An other-than-temporary impairment of $114,000 was recorded during the three and six months ended June 30, 2006, as a result of a change in the Company’s estimates of expected future cash flows.
Note 5 – Loans Receivable
     The carrying amounts of loans receivable consisted of the following (in thousands):
                 
    June 30, 2006     December 31, 2005  
Manufactured housing loans — securitized
  $ 650,896     $ 695,701  
Manufactured housing loans — unsecuritized
    215,275       85,949  
Accrued interest receivable
    4,328       4,078

Allowance for purchased loans
    (428 )     (428 )
Allowance for loan loss
    (8,779 )     (10,017 )
 
           
 
  $ 856,927     $ 768,410  
 
           
     The Company originates and purchases loans collateralized by manufactured houses with the intent to securitize them. Under the current legal structure of the securitization program, the Company transfers manufactured housing loans it originates and purchases to a trust for cash. The trust then sells asset-backed bonds secured by the loans to investors. These loan securitizations are structured as financing transactions. When securitizations are structured as financings, no gain or loss is recognized, nor is any allocation made to residual interests or servicing rights. Rather, the loans securitized continue to be carried by the Company as assets, and the asset-backed bonds secured by the loans are carried as a liability.
     Total principal balance of loans serviced that the Company has previously securitized and accounted for as a sale was approximately $138.1 million at June 30, 2006. Delinquency statistics (including repossessed inventory) on those loans are as follows at June 30, 2006 (dollars in thousands):
                         
    No. of   Principal   % of
Days delinquent   Loans   Balance   Portfolio
31-60
    110     $ 4,159       3.0 %

Note 8 – Share-Based Compensation Plan
     The Company’s equity incentive plan has approximately 1.8 million shares of common stock reserved for issuance as either stock options or non-vested stock grants. As of June 30, 2006, approximately 522,000 shares of common stock remained available for issuance, as either stock options or non-vested stock grants, under the plan. The compensation cost that has been charged against income for those plans was $514,000 and $1,092,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2006, respectively, and $632,000 and $1,292,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2005, respectively.
     The Company adopted SFAS No. 123(R) on January 1, 2006, using the modified-prospective transition method, to account for its equity incentive plan. Prior to January 1, 2006, as permitted under the provisions of SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” as amended, the Company had chosen to recognize compensation expense using the intrinsic value-based method of valuing stock options prescribed in APB No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” and related interpretations. Under the intrinsic value-based method, compensation cost is measured as the amount by which the quoted market price of the Company’s stock at the date of grant exceeds the stock option exercise price. All options granted by the Company prior to the adoption of SFAS 123(R) were granted at a fixed price not less than the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant and, therefore, were not included in compensation expense, prior to the adoption of SFAS No. 123(R). Results for prior periods have not been restated.

Note 8 – Share-Based Compensation Plan (Continued)
     As a result of adopting SFAS No. 123(R) on January 1, 2006, the Company’s net income after the cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle was $44,000 lower for the three months ended June 30, 2006 and $14,000 higher for the six months ended June 30, 2006 than if it had continued to account for share-based compensation under APB No. 25. There would have been no change in basic or diluted earnings per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2006, if the company had not adopted SFAS No. 123(R). The effect of this change from applying the original provisions of SFAS No. 123 had no effect on cash flow from operations and financing activities.
     Stock Options
     Under the plan, the exercise price of the options will not be less than the fair market value of the common stock on the date of grant. The date on which the options are first exercisable is determined by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors as the administrator of the Company’s equity incentive plan, and options that have been issued to date generally vest over a two-year period, have 10-year contractual terms and a 5-year expected option term. The Company does not pay dividends or make distributions on unexercised options. As of June 30, 2006 there was $48,000 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to stock options granted under the equity incentive plan. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.4 years.
     The following table summarizes the activity relating to the Company’s stock options for the six months ended June 30, 2006:

Note that the pro forma disclosures are provided for 2005 because employee stock options were not accounted for using the fair-value method during those periods. Disclosures for 2006 are not presented because share-based payments have been accounted for under SFAS No. 123(R)’s fair-value method. For purposes of this pro forma disclosure, the value of the options is estimated using a binomial option-pricing model.

     The Company grants non-vested stock awards to certain directors, officers and employees under the equity incentive plan. The grantees of the non-vested stock awards are entitled to receive all dividends and other distributions paid with respect to the common shares of the Company underlying such non-vested stock awards at the time such dividends or distributions are paid to holders of common shares.
     On June 15, 2006 the Company granted 215,000 non-vested stock awards to certain directors, officers and employees. The stock awards were issued at $6.15 per share and are being expensed over their estimated service periods, which range from three to five years. Compensation expense recognized for these non-vested stock awards was approximately $27,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2006.
     The Company recognized compensation expense for outstanding non-vested stock awards over their vesting periods for an amount equal to the fair value of the non-vested stock awards at grant date. As of June 30, 2006 there was $2.5 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested stock awards granted under the equity incentive plan. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 3.0 years
     The Company recorded a cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle, as a result of the adoption of SFAS No. 123(R), in the amount of $46,000 as of January 1, 2006 to reflect the change in accounting for forfeitures. Results for prior periods have not been restated.

Note 9 – Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activity
     During the first two quarters of 2006, the Company entered into four forward starting interest rate swaps for the purpose of locking in the designated benchmark interest rate, in this case LIBOR, on a portion of its planned securitization transaction to be completed during the third quarter of 2006. The Company has designated the swaps as cash flow hedges for accounting purposes.
     Under the terms of the swaps the Company will pay fixed rates of 4.79%, 5.11%, 5.09% and 5.42% and receive floating rates equal to the one month LIBOR rate on beginning notional balances of $44.0 million, $20.0 million, $30.0 million and $31.5 million, respectively. The first payment on each of the swaps was paid in July 2006. A rise in rates during the interim period would increase the Company’s borrowing cost in the securitization, but this increase would be offset by the increased value in the right to pay a lower fixed rate during the term of the securitized transaction.
     The hedging transactions were structured at inception to meet the cash flow hedge criteria set forth in SFAS No. 133 “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities” in order to allow the Company to assume that no ineffectiveness exists. As a result, all changes in the fair value of the derivatives are included in other comprehensive income and such amounts will be amortized into earnings upon commencement of the planned transaction.
     In the event the Company is unable to or declines to enter into the securitization transaction or if the commencement of the securitization transaction is delayed, some or all of the amounts included in other comprehensive income may be immediately included in earnings, as required under SFAS No. 133.
     Additionally, SFAS No. 133 requires all derivative instruments to be carried at fair value in the Company’s balance sheet. The fair value of the forward starting interest rate swaps discussed above approximates an asset of $2.8 million at June 30, 2006.
     The Company previously terminated interest rate swaps related to the 2004-B, 2005-A and 2005-B securitizations. The unamortized gains and losses on these terminated interest rate swaps are included in accumulated other comprehensive income in the consolidated balance sheet. The unamortized losses on the terminated interest rate swaps related to the 2004-B and 2005-A securitizations were approximately $1.3 million and $0.3 million at June 30, 2006, respectively. The unamortized gains on the terminated interest rate swaps related to the 2005-B securitization were approximately $2.5 million at June 30, 2006. Net amortization over the next twelve months is expected to amount to approximately $0.
Note 10 – Stockholders’ Equity
     On April 27, 2006, the Company declared a dividend of $0.03 per common share payable to holders of record as of May 19, 2006. On May 31, 2006 those dividends were paid and totaled approximately $756,000.

     Note 11 – Subsequent Events
     On July 14, 2006 the Company granted 175,000 non-vested stock awards to an officer of the Company. The stock awards were issued at $6.16 per share and are being expensed over their estimated service period.
     On July 21, 2006 the Company and Citigroup amended the note purchase agreement related to the Company’s short term securitization facility used for warehouse financing, which was originally entered into in March 2003(See Note 7). The amendment increases the maximum advance amount from $200 million to $225 million for the period July 21, 2006 through August 31, 2006. On September 1, 2006 the maximum advance amount will return to $200 million. The facility matures on March 22, 2007.
     On August 7, 2006, the Company declared a dividend of $0.03 per common share payable to holders of record as of August 18, 2006. Payment of the dividend is planned for August 31, 2006.

Item 2.   Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Overview
     In October 2003, we began operations upon the completion of a private placement of $150 million of our common stock to certain institutional and accredited investors. In February, 2004, we completed another private placement of $10 million of our common stock to one institutional investor. In connection with and as a condition to the October 2003 private placement, we acquired all of the equity interests of Origen Financial L.L.C. We also took steps to qualify Origen Financial, Inc. as a REIT. In the second quarter of 2004, we completed the initial public offering of our common stock. Currently, most of our operations are conducted through Origen Financial L.L.C., our wholly-owned subsidiary. We conduct the rest of our business operations through our other wholly-owned subsidiaries, including taxable REIT subsidiaries, to take advantage of certain business opportunities and ensure that we comply with the federal income tax rules applicable to REITs.
Recent Developments
     In June 2006, Moody’s Investors Service assigned Origen Servicing, Inc., a rating of SQ2- as a Primary Servicer of manufactured housing loans. Origen Servicing, Inc., is a wholly owned subsidiary of Origen Financial, LLC. Moody’s rating is based on the company’s above average collection ability and average servicing stability.
Critical Accounting Policies
     The Company’s consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (US GAAP).
     The financial information contained within our statements is, to a significant extent, financial information that is based on approximate measures of the financial effects of transactions and events that have already occurred. A variety of factors could affect the ultimate value that is obtained either when earning income, recognizing an expense, recovering an asset, or relieving a liability. In some instances we use a discount factor to determine the present value of assets and liabilities. A change in the discount factor could increase or decrease the values of those assets and liabilities and such changes would result in either a beneficial or adverse impact to our financial results. We use historical loss factors, adjusted for current conditions, to determine the inherent loss that may be present in our loan portfolio. Other estimates that we use are fair value of derivatives and expected useful lives of our depreciable assets. We value our derivative contracts at fair value using either readily available, market quoted prices or from information that can be extrapolated to approximate a market price. Additionally, as a result of the adoption of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 123(R), “Share-Based Payment,” we make estimates related to future forfeitures of unvested stock awards and stock options. Any change in the estimates of future forfeitures of unvested stock awards and stock options could increase or decrease compensation expense. We are subject to US GAAP that may change from one previously acceptable method to another method. Although the economics of our transactions would be the same, the timing of events that would impact our transactions could change.
     Understanding our accounting policies is fundamental to understanding our consolidated financial position and consolidated results of operations. Details regarding our critical accounting policies are described fully in Note 1 in the “Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements” in our 2005 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Results of Operations
Comparison of the three months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005.
Net Income
     Net income increased $0.5 million to $2.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006 compared to net income of $1.5 million for the same period in 2005. The increase is the result of an increase of $0.3 million in net interest income after loan losses and an increase of $0.8 million in non-interest income offset by an increase in non-interest expenses of $0.6 million as described in more detail below.
Interest Income
     Interest income increased 24.0% to approximately $18.1 million compared to approximately $14.6 million. This increase resulted primarily from an increase of $173.6 million or 24.5% in average interest earning assets from $709.5 million to $883.1 million. The increase in interest earning assets includes an increase of approximately $174.8 million in average manufactured housing loans. The weighted average net interest rate on the loan receivable portfolio decreased to 8.2% from 8.3%.
     Interest expense increased $3.6 million, or 53.7%, to $10.3 million from $6.7 million. The majority of our interest expense relates to interest on our loan funding facilities. Average debt outstanding on our loan funding facilities increased $175.5 million to $702.7 million compared to $527.2 million, or 33.3%. The average interest rate on total debt outstanding increased from 4.9% to 5.7%. The higher average interest rate for the three months ended June 30, 2006 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2005 was primarily due to increases in the base LIBOR rate.
     The following table presents information relative to the average balances and interest rates of our interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities for the three months ended June 30 (dollars in thousands):

     The following table sets forth the changes in the components of net interest income for the three months ended June 30, 2006 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2005 (in thousands). The changes in net interest income between periods have been reflected as attributable to either volume or rate changes. For the purposes of this table, changes that are not solely due to volume or rate changes are allocated to rate changes.

Decrease in net interest income
                  $ (166 )
 
                     
Non-interest Income
     Non-interest income is primarily made up of loan servicing related revenue including loan servicing fees, late charges, commissions on insurance and commitment fees from third-party loan originations. Such revenue increased $0.8 million, or 23.5%, to $4.2 million compared to $3.4 million. The average serviced loan portfolio on which servicing fees are collected increased approximately $120.3 million, or 8.5%, from $1.42 billion to $1.54 billion.
Provision for Losses
     We maintain an allowance for credit losses to cover inherent losses that can be reasonably estimated for loan receivables held on our balance sheet. The level of the allowance is based principally on the outstanding balance of the contracts held on our balance sheet and historical loss trends.
     The provision for credit losses decreased 25.0% to $1.2 million from $1.6 million. Net charge-offs against the allowance for loan loss were $2.1 million for three months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005. As a percentage of average loans receivable, net charge-offs, on an annualized basis, decreased to 1.0% compared to 2.1%. We expect net charge-offs as a percentage of average outstanding principal balance to continue to decrease in the future due to the fact that the owned portfolio of loans at June 30, 2006 has a larger concentration of loans originated after December 31, 2001 than was the case for the owned portfolio at June 30, 2005. A change to our underwriting practices and credit scoring model in 2002 has resulted in higher credit quality of loans originated since 2002.
Non-interest Expenses
     Personnel expenses increased approximately $0.6 million, or 10.5%, to $6.3 million compared to $5.7 million. The increase is primarily the result of a $0.4 million increase in annual performance bonuses and a $0.3 million increase in salaries and temporary office staffing expenses, offset by a decrease of $0.1 million in stock compensation expenses.

Item 2.   Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Comparison of the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005.
Net Income
     Net income increased $0.7 million to $3.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006 compared to net income of $2.5 million for the same period in 2005. The increase is the result of an increase of $1.7 million in non-interest income and an increase of $0.1 million in net interest income after loan losses offset by an increase in non-interest expenses of $1.1 million as described in more detail below.
Interest Income
     Interest income increased 27.0% to approximately $35.3 million compared to approximately $27.8 million. This increase resulted primarily from an increase of $189.4 million or 28.2% in average interest earning assets from $672.4 million to $861.8 million. The increase in interest earning assets includes an increase of approximately $187.6 million in average manufactured housing loans. The weighted average net interest rate on the loan receivable portfolio decreased to 8.2% from 8.4%.
     Interest expense increased $7.8 million, or 64.5%, to $19.9 million from $12.1 million. The majority of our interest expense relates to interest on our loan funding facilities. Average debt outstanding on our loan funding facilities increased $191.6 million to $681.8 million compared to $490.2 million, or 39.1%. The average interest rate on total debt outstanding increased from 4.7% to 5.6%. The higher average interest rate for the six months ended June 30, 2006 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2005 was primarily due to increases in the base LIBOR rate.
     The following table presents information relative to the average balances and interest rates of our interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities for the six months ended June 30 (dollars in thousands):

     The following table sets forth the changes in the components of net interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2006 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2005 (in thousands). The changes in net interest income between periods have been reflected as attributable to either volume or rate changes. For the purposes of this table, changes that are not solely due to volume or rate changes are allocated to rate changes.

Non-interest Income
     Non-interest income is primarily made up of loan servicing related revenue including loan servicing fees, late charges, commissions on insurance and commitment fees from third-party loan originations. Such revenue increased $1.7 million, or 25.4%, to $8.4 million compared to $6.7 million. The average serviced loan portfolio on which servicing fees are collected increased approximately $134.6 million, or 9.6%, from $1.40 billion to $1.53 billion.
Provision for Losses
     We maintain an allowance for credit losses to cover inherent losses that can be reasonably estimated for loan receivables held on our balance sheet. The level of the allowance is based principally on the outstanding balance of the contracts held on our balance sheet and historical loss trends.
     The provision for credit losses decreased 10.8% to $3.3 million from $3.7 million. Net charge-offs against the allowance for loan loss decreased 11.5% from $5.2 million, to $4.6 million. As a percentage of average loans receivable, net charge-offs, on an annualized basis, decreased to 1.1% compared to 1.7%. We expect net charge-offs as a percentage of average outstanding principal balance to continue to decrease in the future due to the fact that the owned portfolio of loans at June 30, 2006 has a larger concentration of loans originated after December 31, 2001 than was the case for the owned portfolio at June 30, 2005. A change to our underwriting practices and credit scoring model in 2002 has resulted in higher credit quality of loans originated since 2002.
Non-interest Expenses
     Personnel expenses increased approximately $1.1 million, or 9.8%, to $12.3 million compared to $11.2 million. The increase is primarily the result of a $0.6 million increase in annual performance bonuses and a $0.7 million increase in salaries and temporary office staffing expenses, offset by a decrease of $0.2 million in stock compensation expenses.

Receivable Portfolio and Asset Quality
     Net loans receivable outstanding increased 11.5% to $856.9 million at June 30, 2006 compared to $768.4 million at December 31, 2005. Loans receivable are comprised of installment contracts and mortgages collateralized by manufactured houses and in some instances real estate.
     New loan originations for the three months ended June 30, 2006 increased 10.5% to $76.8 million compared to $69.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2005. We additionally processed $16.9 million and $10.5 million in loans originated under third-party origination agreements for the three months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively. These increases were due primarily to increased market share resulting from our focus on customer service and the use of technology to deliver our products and services.
     The following table sets forth the average loan balance, weighted average loan coupon and weighted average initial term of the loan receivable portfolio (dollars in thousands):

Greater than 90
    118       4,725       0.5 %     192       7,480       1.0 %
     We define non-performing loans as those loans that are 90 or more days delinquent in contractual principal payments. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2006 the average outstanding principal balance of non-performing loans was approximately $5.4 million and $6.1 million, respectively, compared to $6.5 million and $6.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2005. Non-performing loans as a percentage of average loans receivable decreased to 0.6% and 0.6% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2006 as compared to 1.0% and 1.1% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2005, primarily as a result of higher average balances offset by improved credit quality in the loan portfolio.
     At June 30, 2006 we held 132 repossessed houses owned by us compared to 162 houses at December 31, 2005. The book value of these houses, including repossession expenses, based on the lower of cost or market value was approximately $2.9 million at June 30, 2006 compared to $3.5 million at December 31, 2005, a decrease of $0.6 million or 17.1%.
 
1   The weighted average loan coupon includes an imbedded servicing fee rate resulting from securitization or sale of the loan but accounted for as a financing.

Item 2.   Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
     The allowance for credit losses decreased $1.2 million to $8.8 million at June 30, 2006 from $10.0 million at December 31, 2005. Despite the 12.0% increase in the gross loans receivable balance, net of loans accounted for under the provisions of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (“AICPA”) Statement of Position 03-3 (“SOP 03-3”), “Accounting for Certain Loans or Debt Securities Acquired in a Transfer,” the allowance for credit losses decreased 12.0% due to improvements in delinquency rates and net charge-offs. Loans delinquent over 60 days decreased $2.8 million or 28.0% from $10.0 million at December 31, 2005 to $7.2 million at June 30, 2006. The allowance for credit losses as a percentage of gross loans receivable, net of loans accounted for under SOP 03-3, was approximately 1.06% at June 30, 2006 compared to approximately 1.35% at December 31, 2005. Net charge-offs were $2.1 million and $4.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2006, respectively, compared to $2.1 million and $5.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2005.
     Our allowance for credit losses includes amounts provided for inherent losses resulting from the damage inflicted by Hurricane Katrina and Hurricane Rita in 2005. Observed trends in the performance of the identified loans through June 30, 2006 and continuing through August 1, 2006, have been somewhat more favorable than management’s initial expectations, however, there can be no assurance that these trends will continue. At January 1, 2006 our allowance included approximately $3.4 million of estimated losses related to the effects of Hurricane Katrina and Hurricane Rita. As a result of the more favorable trends, we have reduced a portion of the allowance initially established for estimated hurricane losses by approximately $960,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2006. We will continue to gather and interpret data from the affected areas and compare such information to our estimates. Amounts are refined as deemed appropriate.
     Changes to our underwriting practices, processes, credit scoring models, systems and servicing techniques in 2002 have resulted in demonstrably superior performance by loans originated in and subsequent to 2002 as compared to loans originated by our predecessors prior to 2002. The pre-2002 loans, despite representing a diminishing percentage of our owned loan portfolio, have had a disproportionate impact on our financial performance.
The following tables indicate the impact of such legacy loans:

          While representing less than 6% of the owned loan portfolio at June 30, 2006, the pre-2002 loans accounted for almost 31% of the defaults during the six months ended June 30, 2006. Additionally, recovery rates were substantially lower for the pre-2002 loans leading to higher losses as compared to loans from 2002 and later. Management believes that as these loans become a smaller percentage of the owned loan portfolio, the negative impact on earnings will diminish.

Item 2.   Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
     Our asset quality statistics for the quarter ended June 30, 2006 reflect our continued emphasis on the credit quality of our borrowers and the improved underwriting and origination practices we have put into place. Continued improvement in delinquency statistics and recovery rates are expected to result in lower levels of non-performing assets and net charge-offs. Long term, lower levels of non-performing assets and net charge-offs should have a positive effect on earnings through decreases in the provision for credit losses and servicing expenses as well as increases in net interest income.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
     We require capital to fund our loan originations, acquire manufactured housing loans originated by third parties and expand our loan servicing operations. At June 30, 2006 we had approximately $1.6 million in available cash and cash equivalents. As a REIT, we are required to distribute at least 90% of our REIT taxable income (as defined in the Internal Revenue Code) to our stockholders on an annual basis. Therefore, as a general matter, it is unlikely we will have any substantial cash balances that could be used to meet our liquidity needs. Instead, these needs must be met from cash provided from operations and external sources of capital. Historically, we have satisfied our liquidity needs through cash generated from operations, sales of our common and preferred stock, borrowings on our credit facilities and securitizations.
     Cash provided by operating activities during the six months ended June 30, 2006, totaled $7.9 million versus $9.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2005. Cash used in investing activities was $92.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006 versus $125.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2005. Cash used to originate and purchase loans decreased 12.0%, or $19.1 million, to $139.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006 compared to $159.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2005. The change is a result of a decrease of approximately $30.7 million in manufactured housing loan purchases offset by an increase in origination volume due to increased market share resulting from our focus on customer service and the use of technology to deliver our products and services. Principal collections on loans totaled $42.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006 as compared to $35.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2005, an increase of $7.2 million, or 20.5%. The increase in collections is primarily related to the increase in the average outstanding loan portfolio balance, which was $803.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006 compared to $616.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2005, in addition to improved credit quality and decreased delinquency as a percentage of outstanding loan receivable balance.
     The primary source of cash during the six months ended June 30, 2006 was approximately $129.3 million in net proceeds from our warehouse facility.
     Continued access to the securitization market is very important to our business. The proceeds from successful securitization transactions generally are applied to paying down our short-term credit facilities giving us renewed borrowing capacity to fund new loan originations. Numerous factors affect our ability to complete a successful securitization, including factors beyond our control. These include general market interest rate levels, the shape of the yield curve and spreads between rates on U.S. Treasury obligations and securitized bonds, all of which affect investors’ demand for securitized debt. In the event these factors are unfavorable our ability to successfully complete securitization transactions is impeded and our liquidity and capital resources are affected negatively. There can be no assurance that current favorable conditions will continue or that unfavorable conditions will not return.

     We currently have a short term securitization facility used for warehouse financing with Citigroup. Under the terms of the agreement, originally entered into in March 2003 and amended periodically, we pledge loans as collateral and in turn we are advanced funds. The facility has a maximum advance amount of $200 million at an annual interest rate equal to LIBOR plus a spread. On July 21, 2006 we amended the agreement. As a result of the amendment the maximum advance line was increased to $225 million for the period July 21, 2006 through August 31, 2006. Additionally, the facility includes a $35 million supplemental advance amount that is collateralized by our residual interests in the 2004-A, 2004-B, 2005-A and 2005-B securitizations. The facility matures on March 22, 2007. The outstanding balance on the facility was approximately $190.2 million at June 30, 2006.
     Additionally, we have four repurchase agreements with Citigroup. Three of the repurchase agreements are for the purpose of financing the purchase of investments in three asset backed securities with principal balances of $32.0 million, $3.1 million and $3.7 million respectively. The fourth repurchase agreement is for the purpose of financing a portion of our interest in the 2004-B securitization with a principal balance of $4.0 million. Under the terms of the agreements we sell our interest in the securities with an agreement to repurchase them at a predetermined future date at the principal amount sold plus an interest component. The securities are financed at an amount equal to 75% of their current market value as determined by Citigroup. Typically the repurchase agreements are rolled over for 30 day periods when they expire. The annual interest rates on the agreements are equal to LIBOR plus a spread. The repurchase agreements had outstanding principal balances of approximately $16.8 million, $1.7 million, $2.1 million and $3.0 million at June 30, 2006
     Under the terms of our revolving credit facility with JP Morgan Chase Bank, N.A., we can borrow up to $5.0 million to fund required principal and interest advances on manufactured housing loans that we service for outside investors. Borrowings under the facility are repaid when we collect monthly payments made by borrowers under such manufactured housing loans. The bank’s prime interest rate is payable on the outstanding balance. To secure the loan, we have granted JPMorgan Chase a security interest in substantially all our assets excluding securitized assets. The expiration date of the facility is December 31, 2006. The outstanding balance on the facility was approximately $0.8 million at June 30, 2006.
     In September 2005, the Securities and Exchange Commission declared effective our shelf registration statement on Form S-3 for the proposed offering, from time to time, of up to $200 million of our common stock, preferred stock and debt securities. In addition to such debt securities, preferred stock and other common stock we may sell under the registration statement from time to time, we have registered for sale 1,540,000 shares of our common stock pursuant to a sales agreement that we have entered into with Brinson Patrick Securities Corporation. It is anticipated that these shares of common stock will be sold at the price of our common stock prevailing at the time of sale.
     Our long-term liquidity and capital requirements consist primarily of funds necessary to originate and hold manufactured housing loans, acquire and hold manufactured housing loans originated by third parties and expand our loan servicing operations. We expect to meet our long-term liquidity requirements through cash generated from operations, but we will require external sources of capital, including sales of shares of our common stock, preferred stock, debt securities and third-party borrowings. We intend to continue to access the asset-backed securities market for the long-term financing of our loans in order to match the interest rate risk between our loans and the related long-term funding source. Our ability to meet our long-term liquidity needs depends on numerous factors, many of which are outside of our control. These factors include general capital market and economic conditions, general market interest rate levels, the shape of the yield curve and spreads between rates on U.S. Treasury obligations and securitized bonds, all of which affect investors’ demand for equity and debt securities, including securitized debt securities.

Item 2.   Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
     Cash generated from operations, borrowings under our Citigroup facility, loan securitizations, borrowings against our securitized loan interests, convertible debt, equity interests or additional debt financing arrangements (either pursuant to our shelf registration statement on Form S-3 or otherwise) will enable us to meet our liquidity needs for at least the next twelve months depending on market conditions which may affect loan origination volume, loan purchase opportunities and the availability of securitizations. If market conditions require, loan purchase opportunities become available, or favorable capital opportunities become available, we may seek additional funds through additional credit facilities or additional sales of our common or preferred stock.
     The risks associated with the manufactured housing business become more acute in any economic slowdown or recession. Periods of economic slowdown or recession may be accompanied by decreased demand for consumer credit and declining asset values. In the manufactured housing business, any material decline in collateral values increases the loan-to-value ratios of loans previously made, thereby weakening collateral coverage and increasing the size of losses in the event of default. Delinquencies, repossessions, foreclosures and losses generally increase during economic slowdowns or recessions. For our finance customers, loss of employment, increases in cost-of-living or other adverse economic conditions would impair their ability to meet their payment obligations. Higher industry inventory levels of repossessed manufactured houses may affect recovery rates and result in future impairment charges and provision for losses. In addition, in an economic slowdown or recession, servicing and litigation costs generally increase. Any sustained period of increased delinquencies, repossessions, foreclosures, losses or increased costs would adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations and liquidity.

Item 3.   Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
     Market risk is the risk of loss arising from adverse changes in market prices and interest rates. Our market risk arises from interest rate risk inherent in our financial instruments. We are not currently subject to foreign currency exchange rate risk or commodity price risk.
     The outstanding balance of our variable rate debt under which we paid interest at various LIBOR rates plus a spread, totaled $214.6 million and $106.0 million at June 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively. If LIBOR increased or decreased by 1.0% during the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, we believe our interest expense would have increased or decreased by approximately $0.7 million and $0.7 million, respectively, based on the $145.7 million and $149.3 million average balance outstanding under our variable rate debt facilities for the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively. We had no variable rate interest earning assets outstanding during the six months ended June 30, 2006 or 2005.
     The following table shows the contractual maturity dates of our assets and liabilities at June 30, 2006. For each maturity category in the table the difference between interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities reflects an imbalance between re-pricing opportunities for the two sides of the balance sheet. The consequences of a negative cumulative gap at the end of one year suggests that, if interest rates were to rise, liability costs would increase more quickly than asset yields, placing negative pressure on earnings (dollars in thousands).

     We believe the negative effect of a rise in interest rates is reduced by the anticipated securitization of our loans receivable which fixes our cost of funds associated with the loans over the lives of such loans.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
     During the first six months of 2006, we entered into four forward starting interest rate swaps for the purpose of locking in the designated benchmark interest rate, in this case LIBOR, on a portion of our planned securitization transaction to be completed in the third quarter of 2006. We have designated the swaps as cash flow hedges for accounting purposes. Under the terms of the swaps we will pay fixed rates of 4.79%, 5.11%, 5.09% and 5.42% and receive floating rates equal to the one month LIBOR rate on beginning notional balances of $44.0 million, $20.0 million, $30.0 million and $31.5 million, respectively. The first payment on each of the swaps is scheduled for July 2006. A rise in rates during the interim period would increase our borrowing cost in the securitization, but this increase would be offset by the increased value in the right to pay a lower fixed rate during the term of the securitized transaction. The hedging transactions were structured at inception to meet the criteria set forth in SFAS No. 133 in order to allow us to assume that no ineffectiveness exists. As a result, all changes in the fair value of the derivatives are included in other comprehensive income and such amounts will be amortized into earnings upon completion of the planned transaction. In the event that we are unable to or decline to enter into the securitization transaction or if the completion of the securitization transaction is significantly delayed, some or all of the amounts included in other comprehensive income may be immediately included in earnings, as required under SFAS No. 133.
