Freddie Mac Reports Net Income of $1.5 Billion and

Comprehensive Income of $1.8 Billion for Second Quarter 2019

The Company's Business Model Continues to Produce Solid Financial and Business Results 

Second Quarter 2019 Financial Results 

• Solid business revenues, strong credit quality, and continued guarantee portfolio growth delivered

$1.8 billion of comprehensive income, a slight increase from the prior quarter.

Market-related items had minimal impact in both the current and prior quarters. 

• Return on Conservatorship Capital (ROCC)(1) improved to 14.1% due to higher earnings and lower

conservatorship capital compared to the prior quarter.

• Expected $1.8 billion dividend to the U.S. Treasury by September 2019; cumulative payments to

date total $119.7 billion, exceeding cumulative draws by $48.1 billion.

“Freddie Mac’s second quarter continued our growing track record of strong returns, solid risk 

management and an unwavering commitment to our mission. Once again, we made home possible 

for hundreds of thousands of families across the country.”

David M. Brickman Chief Executive Officer

Growing the Business. Reducing Risks. Serving the Mission. 

Producing Solid Results through Strong Business Fundamentals 

• Robust 5% total guarantee book growth, year over year — Single-Family grew 4% and Multifamily

grew 13%.

• Credit quality remains strong — Single-Family serious delinquency rate declined to 0.63%, while

Multifamily delinquency rate continues near zero at 0.03%.

Reducing Risk and Protecting Taxpayers(1)(2)

• Conservatorship capital declined by $6.0 billion from the prior year, due to credit risk transfer (CRT)

activity, home price appreciation, and legacy asset dispositions.

• Conservatorship capital needed for credit risk reduced by 70% for Single-Family and 90% for

Multifamily on new business activity in the twelve months ended June 30, 2018.

Supporting Homebuyers, Renters, and Lenders of All Sizes

• Helped more than 596,000 families to own or rent a home; provided $127 billion in liquidity to the

mortgage market.

• Served 900 regional and community single-family lenders, representing 45% of purchase volume.

• Remained a vital source of affordable housing — First-time homebuyers represented 48% of new

single-family purchase loans, and 95% of the eligible multifamily rental units financed were

affordable to families earning at or below 120% of area median incomes.

• Market-related items had minimal impact in both the current and prior quarters.

• Gains from sales of single-family reperforming loans were $0.4 billion, after-tax, up from $0.2 billion, aftertax, in the prior quarter.

Selected Financial Measures 

Net Interest Income and Net Interest Yield

(Dollars in billions) 

• Net interest income and net interest yield decreased from the prior quarter, primarily driven by a negative 

impact from hedge accounting in the second quarter of 2019.

Guarantee Fee Income(1), Guarantee Fee Rate, and 

Multifamily Guarantee Portfolio 

(1) Guarantee fee income on a GAAP basis is primarily from the company’s multifamily business.

• Guarantee fee income increased from the prior quarter, primarily due to continued growth in the Multifamily 

guarantee portfolio.

Non-GAAP Financial Measure Highlights 

In addition to analyzing the company’s results on a GAAP basis, management reviews net interest income and 

guarantee fee income on an “adjusted,” or non-GAAP, basis. These adjusted financial measures are calculated by 

reclassifying certain credit guarantee-related activities and investment-related activities between various line items 

on the company’s GAAP consolidated statements of comprehensive income. The company also presents two 

additional non-GAAP financial measures, adjusted net interest yield and adjusted guarantee fee rate, that are 

calculated based on adjusted net interest income and adjusted guarantee fee income, respectively. Management 

believes that these non-GAAP financial measures are useful because they more clearly reflect the company’s 

sources of revenue and return.

The company also considers whether certain significant items occurred during the quarter that are not indicative of 

ongoing operations. If so, the company presents a non-GAAP financial measure for comprehensive income that is 

calculated by excluding these significant items from GAAP comprehensive income. The company also presents a 

non-GAAP financial measure, adjusted return on conservatorship capital, that is calculated based on 

comprehensive income, excluding significant items. Management believes that both of these non-GAAP financial 

measures are useful because they allow users to better understand the drivers of the company’s ongoing financial 

results.

For additional information about the company's non-GAAP financial measures and reconciliations to the 

comparable amounts under GAAP, see pages 14 - 15 of this press release.

Amounts may not add due to rounding.

• Adjusted net interest income was unchanged from the prior quarter. 

• Adjusted net interest yield decreased from the prior quarter, due to an increase in the proportion of the 

lower yielding other investments portfolio relative to the total investments portfolio.

• The mortgage-related investments portfolio was $219 billion, unchanged from the prior quarter, but down 

$17 billion, or 7%, from the prior year. This balance remained below the limit directed by FHFA, which was 

$260 billion during 2018 and decreased to $225 billion as of December 31, 2018.

Amounts may not add due to rounding.

• Adjusted guarantee fee income and adjusted guarantee fee rate increased from the prior quarter, primarily 

driven by higher amortization of single-family upfront fees resulting from an increase in loan prepayments.

• The total guarantee portfolio grew $27 billion, or 1%, from the prior quarter and $109 billion, or 5%, from 

the prior year, driven by increases in both the Single-Family and Multifamily guarantee portfolios.

Return on Conservatorship Capital 

The table below provides the ROCC, calculated as (1) annualized comprehensive income for the period divided by 

(2) average conservatorship capital during the period. If significant items were identified during the period, the 

company also calculates the return using both (1) GAAP comprehensive income and (2) comprehensive income, 

excluding significant items.(1) All conservatorship capital figures presented below are based on the Conservatorship 

Capital Framework (CCF) in effect as of June 30, 2019, which was unchanged from the CCF as in effect on March 

31, 2019.

ROCC is not based on the company's total equity and does not reflect actual returns on total equity. The company 

does not believe that returns on total equity are meaningful because of the current $3.0 billion limit on the amount 

of total equity that it is able to retain under the Purchase Agreement. In addition, the company believes that returns 

post-conservatorship would most likely be lower than the levels calculated below, assuming the same portfolio of 

risk assets, as it expects that it would hold capital above the minimum required regulatory capital levels and that it 

may be required to pay fees for federal government support, thereby reducing its total comprehensive income.

Return on Conservatorship Capital 

(Dollars in billions) 2Q 2019 1Q 2019 Change 2Q 2018 Change

(1) See pages 14-15 of this press release for additional details regarding non-GAAP financial measures and reconciliations to the comparable amounts under GAAP.

(2) No significant items were identified for the first or second quarter of 2019. Numbers for these quarters are included for comparison purposes only.

(3) Conservatorship capital results for the second quarter of 2018 have been revised to include capital for deferred tax assets.

Amounts may not add due to rounding.

ROCC increased compared to the prior quarter, driven by higher earnings and the lower level of conservatorship 

capital needed in the second quarter of 2019, resulting from increasing CRT activity in both the Single-Family 

Guarantee and Multifamily segments, home price appreciation, and the efficient disposition of legacy assets. 

For additional information on the CCF and ROCC, see the company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the 

quarter ended June 30, 2019. For additional information about the company’s non-GAAP financial measure of 

comprehensive income, excluding significant items, and reconciliations to the comparable amount under GAAP,

Segment Financial Results and Business Highlights

Freddie Mac’s operations consist of three reportable segments, which are based on the types of business activities 

they perform – Single-Family Guarantee, Multifamily, and Capital Markets. The company presents Segment 

Earnings for each reportable segment by reclassifying certain credit guarantee-related activities and investmentrelated activities between various line items on its GAAP consolidated statements of comprehensive income and 

allocating certain revenues and expenses, including funding costs and administrative expenses, to its three 

reportable segments.

For more information about Segment Earnings, see Note 13 to the financial statements included in the company’s 

Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2019.

• Segment Earnings increased from the prior quarter primarily driven by higher amortization of single-family 

upfront fees resulting from an increase in loan prepayments. 

Second Quarter 2019 Business Highlights

• New business activity was $102 billion, an increase of $32 billion, or 46%, from the prior quarter. 

Home purchase volume increased 41%, while refinance volume increased 54%.

The Core Single-Family loan portfolio was unchanged at 83% of the total portfolio.

• Average guarantee fees charged on new acquisitions increased to 44 basis points, up from 40 basis points 

in the prior quarter, due to an enhancement in the company's estimation methodology related to the 

recognition of buy-up fees.

Average guarantee fees on the single-family credit guarantee portfolio were 39 basis points, up from 

34 basis points for the prior quarter, due to the increased amortization of single-family upfront fees.

• As of June 30, 2019, the company had cumulatively transferred a portion of credit risk on nearly $1.3 

trillion of single-family mortgages, based upon the UPB at issuance of the CRT transactions.

transactions on new business activity in the twelve months ended June 30, 2018.

• Provided funding for 402,000 single-family homes, more than 253,000 of which were home purchase 

loans.

(1) The reduction in the amount of conservatorship capital needed for credit risk on new business activity is calculated as conservatorship credit capital released from the CRT 

transactions (primarily through STACR and ACIS) divided by total conservatorship credit capital on new business activity at the time of purchase.

similar risk reduction transactions for this year's new business activity. 

• The company provided financing for 194,000 rental units.

95% of the eligible units financed were affordable to families earning at or below 120% of area median

(1) The financial performance of the company’s Capital Markets segment is measured based on its contribution to GAAP comprehensive income (loss).

rates in the second quarter of 2019 compared to the first quarter of 2019. 

Second Quarter 2019 Business Highlights

• The company continued to maintain a presence in the agency mortgage-related securities market to 

strategically support the guarantee business.

Non-GAAP Reconciliations 

The company’s GAAP net interest income includes the spread earned on its investments activities plus the

guarantee fees earned by its single-family business. Adjusted net interest income is the net spread earned on the

company’s investment activities, including the cost of funds associated with using derivatives. Net interest yield,

GAAP and adjusted, is calculated as annualized quarterly GAAP or adjusted net interest income divided by the

average balance of the underlying assets and liabilities.

GAAP guarantee fees are primarily those generated by the company's multifamily business. Adjusted guarantee

fee income consists of the revenues from guarantee fees from both the single-family and multifamily businesses,

net of the 10 basis point guarantee fee remitted to Treasury as part of the Temporary Payroll Tax Cut Continuation

Act of 2011. Guarantee fee rate, GAAP and adjusted, is calculated as annualized quarterly GAAP or adjusted

guarantee fee income divided by the average underlying guarantee portfolio.

The company considers whether certain significant items were identified during the period that are not indicative

of ongoing operations. If so, the company presents a non-GAAP financial measure for comprehensive income

that is calculated by excluding these significant items from GAAP comprehensive income.

Notes on Significant Reclassifications

(1) Net guarantee fees, including upfront fee amortization and implied guarantee fee income related to unsecuritized 

loans held in the mortgage-related investments portfolio, are reclassified from GAAP net interest income to 

adjusted guarantee fee income.

(2) Short-term returns on cash received related to certain upfront fees on single-family loans are reclassified from 

GAAP net interest income to adjusted guarantee fee income. 

(3) The accrual of periodic cash settlements of derivatives is reclassified from GAAP derivative gains (losses) to 

adjusted net interest income to fully reflect the periodic cost associated with the protection provided by these 

contracts.

(4) Hedge accounting impact consists of removing the effects of hedge accounting including deferred gains and 

losses on closed cash flow hedges related to forecasted debt issuances. 

(5) Other reclassifications primarily relate to items reclassified out of GAAP net interest income, including the 

amortization related to derivative commitment basis adjustments associated with mortgage-related and nonmortgage-related securities, amortization related to accretion of other-than-temporary impairments on availablefor-sale securities, amortization of discounts on loans purchased with deteriorated credit quality that are on 

accrual status, amortization related to premiums and discounts, including non-cash premiums and discounts, on 

single-family loans in trusts and on the associated consolidated PCs, amortization related to premiums and 

discounts associated with PCs issued by consolidated trusts that were previously held and subsequently 

transferred to third parties, costs associated with STACR debt note expenses, and internally allocated costs 

associated with the refinancing of debt related to Multifamily segment held-for-investment loans which were 

securitized.

(6) The expense related to the Temporary Payroll Tax Cut Continuation Act of 2011 is reclassified from GAAP other 

non-interest expense to adjusted guarantee fee income. As a result of the reclassification, the revenue and 

expense related to the legislated 10 basis point increase are netted within adjusted guarantee fee income.

(7) The second quarter 2018 GAAP results included a gain of $334 million (pre-tax) from a final judgment against 

Nomura Holding America, Inc. in litigation involving certain non-agency mortgage-related securities. The tax 

effect related to this judgment was $(70) million. Comprehensive income, excluding significant items, excludes 

from GAAP comprehensive income the benefit from the final judgment and the related tax effect in the second 

quarter of 2018 as the judgment related to non-agency mortgage-related securities in which the company no 

longer invests.
