 long-term growth initiatives are built upon a few key fundamental factors:

•We are focused on growing our core retirement solutions business, which benefits from demographic and economic tailwinds. We believe we can continue to enhance, expand, and more effectively dispatch our innovative suite of home equity-based financing solutions to help senior homeowners achieve their retirement goals.

•We distribute our products through multiple channels and utilize flexible technology platforms in order to scale our business and manage costs efficiently.

•We connect borrowers with investors. Our consumer-facing business leaders interface directly with the investor-facing professionals in our Portfolio Management segment, facilitating the development of attractive lending solutions for our customers with the confidence that the loans we generate can be efficiently and profitably sold to a deep pool of investors, either directly via whole-loan sales or indirectly via the issuance and sale of mortgage-backed securities. We seek to programmatically and profitably monetize our loans, which minimizes capital at risk, while often retaining a future performance-based participation interest in the underlying cash flows of our monetized loans.

Through FAR, the Company originates, acquires, and services (in partnership with third-party subservicers) HECM, which are originated pursuant to the FHA HECM program and are insured by the FHA, and non-agency reverse mortgage loans, which are not insured by the FHA. We have launched several non-agency reverse mortgage loan products to serve the U.S. senior population and have plans for additional innovative products to satisfy this vast and largely underserved market. For example, in 2023, we launched a non-agency second lien reverse mortgage loan product, second in priority behind the first lien of an existing traditional forward mortgage loan or home equity line of credit collateralized by the same mortgaged property. In 2024, we invested more capital and resources into the second lien product, including marketing and digital efforts, in order to expand its reach through a leading broker facing platform and expansion of the product to additional states. The launch and expansion of the second lien product has enabled us to serve borrowers who already have and desire to maintain a low-rate primary mortgage but want the convenience of a flexible second lien with no required monthly principal and interest payments,

exemplifying our commitment to meet and serve new kinds of borrowers whose needs are not satisfied by existing available products. We are a leader in this market and we are focused on developing and offering products for borrowers with interest in using a reverse mortgage loan as a retirement planning tool, which we believe will continue to increase our addressable customer
