EXPLANATORY
NOTE
During the preparation of our Consolidated Financial Statements
for the year ended December 31, 2005, we determined that it
was necessary to restate previously issued financial statements
to record adjustments for corrections of errors resulting from
various accounting matters. As a result, all amounts as of
September 30, 2005 and for the three and nine months ended
September 30, 2005 and comparisons to those amounts reflect
the balances and amounts on a restated basis. Accordingly, some
of the data set forth in this
Form 10-Q
is not comparable to the discussions and data in our previously
filed Quarterly Report on
Form 10-Q
for the three months ended September 30, 2005. For
additional information about the effects of the restatement
adjustments on the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
included in this
Form 10-Q,
see Note 16, Prior Period Adjustments in the
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included
herein. For additional information about the effects of the
restatement adjustments on our Consolidated Financial Statements
for the year ended December 31, 2005, see the
Explanatory Note and Note 2, Prior Period
Adjustments in the Notes to Consolidated Financial
Statements included in our Annual Report on
Form 10-K
for the year ended December 31, 2005 (the 2005
Form 10-K).
CAUTIONARY
NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This
Form 10-Q
contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of
Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and
Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended. These forward-looking statements are subject to known
and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors and were
derived utilizing numerous important assumptions that may cause
our actual results, performance or achievements to differ
materially from any future results, performance or achievements
expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements.
Investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these
forward-looking statements.
Statements preceded by, followed by or that otherwise include
the words believes, expects,
anticipates, intends,
projects, estimates, plans,
may increase, may fluctuate and similar
expressions or future or conditional verbs such as
will, should, would,
may and could are generally
forward-looking in nature and are not historical facts.
Forward-looking statements in this
Form 10-Q
include, but are not limited to, the following: (i) the
beliefs regarding the increasing competition in the mortgage
industry and the contraction of margins and volumes in the
industry and our intention to take advantage of this environment
by leveraging our existing mortgage origination services
platform to enter into new outsourcing relationships;
(ii) the expected level of savings in 2007 from
cost-reducing initiatives implemented in our Mortgage Production
and Mortgage Servicing segments; (iii) the expectation that
any existing legal claims or proceedings other than the several
class actions filed against us as discussed in this
Form 10-Q
will not have a material adverse effect on our financial
position, results of operations or cash flows and our intent to
vigorously defend against the several class actions filed
against us as discussed in this
Form 10-Q;
(iv) the expectation that our agreements and arrangements
with Cendant and Realogy Corporation (Realogy) will
continue to be material to our business; (v) the
expectation that our sources of liquidity are adequate to fund
operations for the next twelve months; (vi) the
expectations regarding the impact of the adoption of recently
issued accounting pronouncements on our financial statements and
(vii) the expectation that fees and expenses relating to
the preparation of our financial results in 2007 will be
significantly higher than historical fees and expenses.
The factors and assumptions discussed below and the risks and
uncertainties described in Item 1A. Risk
Factors could cause actual results to differ materially
from those expressed in such forward-looking statements:
2
|
|
|
|
n
|
the material weaknesses that we identified in our internal
control over financial reporting and the ineffectiveness of our
disclosure controls and procedures;
|
|
|
n
|
the outcome of civil litigation pending against us, our
Directors, Chief Executive Officer, and former Chief Financial
Officer and whether our indemnification obligations for such
Directors and executive officers will be covered by our
Directors and officers insurance;
|
|
|
n
|
our ability to meet the extended deadlines for the delivery of
our quarterly and annual financial statements under our waivers
under financing agreements and, if not, our ability to obtain
additional waivers under our financing agreements and to satisfy
our obligations under certain of our contractual and regulatory
requirements for the delivery of our quarterly and annual
financial statements;
|
|
|
n
|
the effects of environmental, economic or political conditions
on the international, national or regional economy, the outbreak
or escalation of hostilities or terrorist attacks and the impact
thereof on our businesses;
|
|
|
n
|
the effects of a decline in the volume or value of
U.S. home sales, due to adverse economic changes or
otherwise, on our mortgage services business;
|
|
|
n
|
the effects of changes in current interest rates on our Mortgage
Production and Mortgage Servicing segments and on our financing
costs;
|
|
|
n
|
the effects of changes in spreads between mortgage rates and
swap rates, option volatility and the shape of the yield curve,
particularly on the performance of our risk management
activities;
|
|
|
n
|
our ability to develop and implement operational, technological
and financial systems to manage growing operations and to
achieve enhanced earnings or effect cost savings;
|
|
|
n
|
the effects of competition in our existing and potential future
lines of business, including the impact of competition with
greater financial resources and broader product lines;
|
|
|
n
|
the impact of the proposed merger on our business and the price
of our Common stock, including our ability to satisfy the
conditions required to consummate the merger, the impact of the
announcement of the merger on our business relationships and
operating results and the impact of costs, fees and expenses
related to the merger;
|
|
|
n
|
our ability to quickly reduce overhead and infrastructure costs
in response to a reduction in revenue;
|
|
|
n
|
our ability to implement fully integrated disaster recovery
technology solutions in the event of a disaster;
|
|
|
n
|
our ability to obtain financing on acceptable terms to finance
our growth strategy, to operate within the limitations imposed
by financing arrangements and to maintain our credit ratings;
|
|
|
n
|
our ability to establish and maintain a functional corporate
structure and to operate as an independent organization;
|
|
|
n
|
our ability to implement changes to our internal control over
financial reporting in order to remediate identified material
weaknesses and other control deficiencies;
|
|
|
n
|
our ability to maintain our relationships with our existing
clients;
|
|
|
n
|
a deterioration in the performance of assets held as collateral
for secured borrowings, a downgrade in our credit ratings below
investment grade or any failure to comply with certain financial
covenants could negatively impact our access to the secondary
market for mortgage loans and our ability to act as servicer for
mortgage loans sold into the secondary market; and
|
3
|
|
|
|
n
|
changes in laws and regulations, including changes in accounting
standards, mortgage- and real estate-related regulations and
state, federal and foreign tax laws.
|
Other factors and assumptions not identified above were also
involved in the derivation of these forward-looking statements,
and the failure of such other assumptions to be realized as well
as other factors may also cause actual results to differ
materially from those projected. Most of these factors are
difficult to predict accurately and are generally beyond our
control.
The factors and assumptions discussed above may have an impact
on the continued accuracy of any forward-looking statements that
we make. Except for our ongoing obligations to disclose material
information under the federal securities laws, we undertake no
obligation to release publicly any revisions to any
forward-looking statements, to report events or to report the
occurrence of unanticipated events unless required by law. For
any forward-looking statements contained in any document, we
claim the protection of the safe harbor for forward-looking
statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform
Act of 1995.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
Throughout these Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial
Statements, all referenced amounts as of September 30,
2005, for the three and the nine months ended September 30,
2005 and comparisons to those amounts reflect the balances and
amounts on a restated basis. For information on the restatement,
see Note 16, Prior Period Adjustments included
herein and the Explanatory Note and Note 2,
Prior Period Adjustments in the Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements included in PHH
Corporations Annual Report on
Form 10-K
for the year ended December 31, 2005 (the 2005
Form 10-K)
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission
(SEC).

Summary
of Significant Accounting Policies
|
Basis
of Presentation
PHH Corporation and subsidiaries (PHH or the
Company) is a leading outsource provider of mortgage
and fleet management services operating in the following
business segments:
|
|
|
|
|
Mortgage Production provides mortgage loan
origination services and sells mortgage loans.
|
|
|
|
Mortgage Servicing provides servicing
activities for originated and purchased loans.
|
|
|
|
Fleet Management Services provides commercial
fleet management services.
|
As of December 31, 2004, PHH was a wholly owned subsidiary
of Cendant Corporation that provided homeowners with mortgages,
serviced mortgage loans, facilitated employee relocations and
provided vehicle fleet management and fuel card services to
commercial clients. During 2006, Cendant Corporation changed its
name to Avis Budget Group, Inc.; however, within these Notes to
Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, PHHs former
parent company, now known as Avis Budget Group, Inc. (NYSE: CAR)
is referred to as Cendant. On February 1, 2005,
PHH began operating as an independent, publicly traded company
pursuant to a spin-off from Cendant (the Spin-Off).
During 2005, prior to the Spin-Off, PHH underwent an internal
reorganization whereby it distributed its former relocation and
fuel card businesses to Cendant, and Cendant contributed its
former appraisal business, Speedy Title and Appraisal Review
Services LLC (STARS), to PHH. STARS was previously a
wholly owned subsidiary of PHH until it was distributed, in the
form of a dividend, to a wholly owned subsidiary of Cendant not
within the PHH ownership structure on December 31, 2002.
Cendant then owned STARS through its subsidiaries outside of PHH
from December 31, 2002 until it contributed STARS to PHH as
part of the internal reorganization discussed above.
The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the
accounts and transactions of PHH and its subsidiaries, as well
as entities in which the Company directly or indirectly has a
controlling interest. PHH Home Loans, LLC (the Mortgage
Venture) is consolidated within PHHs Condensed
Consolidated Financial Statements and Realogy Corporations
ownership interest is presented as Minority interest in the
Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and Minority interest in
income of consolidated entities, net of income taxes in the
Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations. On July 31,
2006, Cendant executed a spin-off of both Realogy Corporation
(Realogy) and Wyndham Worldwide Corporation (the
Cendant Spin-Offs). The 49.9% ownership in the
Mortgage Venture was included in the spin-off of Realogy, which
owns NRT Incorporated (NRT) and Cartus Corporation
(Cartus) and franchises to real estate brokerage
companies under the Century 21, Coldwell Banker, ERA and
Sothebys International Realty brands. The structure and
operation of the Mortgage Venture was not impacted by the
Cendant Spin-Offs. Pursuant to Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards (SFAS) No. 141, Business
Combinations, Cendants contribution of STARS to PHH
was accounted for as a transfer of net assets between entities
under common control. Accordingly, the financial position and
results of operations for STARS are included in the Condensed
Consolidated Financial Statements in continuing operations for
all periods presented. Pursuant to SFAS No. 144,
Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived
Assets, the financial position and results of operations
of the Companys former

PHH
CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS (Continued)
(Unaudited)
relocation and fuel card businesses have been segregated and
reported as discontinued operations for all periods presented
(see Note 18, Discontinued Operations for more
information).
The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been
prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) for
interim financial information and pursuant to the rules and
regulations of the SEC. Accordingly, they do not include all of
the information and disclosures required by GAAP for complete
financial statements. In managements opinion, the
unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements contain
all normal, recurring adjustments necessary for a fair
presentation of the financial position and results of operations
for the interim periods presented. The results of operations
reported for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of
the results of operations for the entire year or any subsequent
interim period. These unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial
Statements should be read in conjunction with the Companys
2005
Form 10-K.
During the preparation of the Condensed Consolidated Financial
Statements as of and for the three months ended March 31,
2006, the Company identified and corrected errors related to
prior periods. The effect of correcting these errors on the
Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations for the nine
months ended September 30, 2006 was to reduce Net loss by
$3 million (net of income taxes of $2 million). The
corrections included an adjustment for franchise tax accruals
previously recorded during the years ended December 31,
2002 and 2003 and certain other miscellaneous adjustments
related to the year ended December 31, 2005. The Company
evaluated the impact of the adjustments and determined that they
are not material, individually or in the aggregate, to the nine
months ended September 30, 2006 or the years ended
December 31, 2006, 2005, 2003 or 2002.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP
requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the
disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the
financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and
expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could
differ from those estimates.
Changes
in Accounting Policies
Share-Based Payments. In December 2004,
the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the FASB)
issued SFAS No. 123(R), Share-Based
Payment (SFAS No. 123(R)), which
eliminates the alternative to measure stock-based compensation
awards using the intrinsic value approach permitted by
Accounting Principles Board Opinion (APB)
No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to
Employees (APB No. 25) and
SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation (SFAS No. 123). Prior
to the Spin-Off and since Cendants adoption on
January 1, 2003 of the fair value method of accounting for
stock-based compensation provisions of SFAS No. 123
and the transitional provisions of SFAS No. 148,
Accounting for Stock-Based CompensationTransition
and Disclosure (SFAS No. 148), the
Company was allocated compensation expense upon Cendants
issuance of stock-based awards to the Companys employees.
As a result, the Company has been recording stock-based
compensation expense since January 1, 2003 for employee
stock awards that were granted or modified subsequent to
December 31, 2002.
On March 29, 2005, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin
(SAB) No. 107, Share-Based Payment
(SAB 107). SAB 107 summarizes the views of
the staff regarding the interaction between
SFAS No. 123(R)
and certain SEC rules and regulations and provides the
staffs views regarding the valuation of share-based
payment arrangements for public companies. Effective
April 21, 2005, the SEC issued an amendment to
Rule 4-01(a)
of
Regulation S-X
amending the effective date for compliance with
SFAS No. 123(R) so that each registrant that is not a
small business issuer will be required to prepare financial
statements in accordance with SFAS No. 123(R)
beginning with the first interim or annual reporting period of
the registrants first fiscal year beginning on or after
June 15, 2005.

CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL

(Unaudited)
The Company adopted SFAS No. 123(R) effective
January 1, 2006 using the modified prospective application
method. The modified prospective application method applies to
new awards and to awards modified, repurchased or cancelled
after the effective date. Compensation cost for the portion of
outstanding awards of stock-based compensation for which the
requisite service has not been rendered as of the effective date
of SFAS No. 123(R) is recognized as the requisite
service is rendered based on their grant-date fair value under
SFAS No. 123. Compensation cost for stock-based awards
granted after the effective date will be based on the grant-date
fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of
SFAS No. 123(R).
The Company previously recognized the effect of forfeitures on
compensation expense in the period that the forfeitures
occurred. SFAS No. 123(R) requires the accrual of
compensation cost based on the estimated number of instruments
for which the requisite service is expected to be rendered. In
addition, the Company previously presented tax benefits in
excess of the value recognized for financial reporting purposes
related to equity instruments issued under stock-based payments
arrangements as cash flows from operating activities in the
Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.
SFAS No. 123(R) requires the cash flows from these
excess tax benefits to be classified as cash inflows from
financing activities.
The Company previously reported the entire fair value of its
restricted stock unit (RSU) awards within
Stockholders equity as an increase to Additional paid-in
capital with an offsetting increase to Deferred compensation, a
contra-equity account, at the date of grant. With the adoption
of SFAS No. 123(R), the Company records increases to
Additional paid-in capital for grants of RSUs as compensation
cost is recognized. As of the effective date of adopting
SFAS No. 123(R), the Deferred compensation related to
the unrecognized compensation cost for RSUs was eliminated
against Additional paid-in capital in accordance with the
modified prospective application method.
The adoption of SFAS No. 123(R) did not have a
significant effect on any line item of the Companys
Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations for the nine
months ended September 30, 2006. Additionally, the adoption
of SFAS No. 123(R) did not have a significant effect
on the Companys Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash
Flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2006. In
accordance with the transition provisions of
SFAS No. 123(R)s modified prospective
application method of adoption, the Companys Condensed
Consolidated Financial Statements for prior periods have not
been restated.
Accounting Changes and Error
Corrections. In May 2005, the FASB issued
SFAS No. 154, Accounting Changes and Error
Corrections (SFAS No. 154), which
replaces APB No. 20, Accounting Changes.
SFAS No. 154 changes the accounting for, and reporting
of, a change in accounting principle. SFAS No. 154
requires retrospective application to prior period financial
statements when voluntary changes in accounting principles are
adopted and upon adopting changes required by new accounting
standards when the standard does not include specific transition
provisions, unless it is impracticable to do so.
SFAS No. 154 is effective for fiscal years beginning
after December 15, 2005. The adoption of
SFAS No. 154 on January 1, 2006 did not impact
the Companys Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Servicing of Financial Assets. In March
2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 156, Accounting
for Servicing of Financial Assets
(SFAS No. 156). SFAS No. 156:
(i) clarifies when a servicing asset or servicing liability
should be recognized; (ii) requires all separately
recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities to be
initially measured at fair value, if practicable;
(iii) subsequent to initial measurement, permits an entity
to choose either the amortization method or the fair value
measurement method for each class of separately recognized
servicing assets or servicing liabilities and (iv) at its
initial adoption, permits a one-time reclassification of
available-for-sale
securities to trading securities by entities with recognized
servicing rights.
SFAS No. 156 is effective for all separately
recognized servicing assets and liabilities acquired or issued
after the beginning of an entitys fiscal year that begins
after September 15, 2006. Earlier adoption is permitted as
of the beginning of an entitys fiscal year, provided the
entity has not yet issued financial statements, including
interim financial statements for any period of that fiscal year.
The Company adopted SFAS No. 156 effective
12
PHH
CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS (Continued)
(Unaudited)
January 1, 2006. As a result of adopting
SFAS No. 156, servicing rights created through the
sale of originated loans are recorded at the fair value of the
servicing right on the date of sale whereas prior to the
adoption, the servicing rights were recorded based on the
relative fair values of the loans sold and the servicing rights
retained. The Company services residential mortgage loans, which
represent its single class of servicing rights and has elected
the fair value measurement method for subsequently measuring
these servicing rights. The election of the fair value
measurement method will subject the Companys earnings to
increases and decreases in the value of its servicing assets.
Previously, servicing rights were (i) carried at the lower
of cost or fair value based on defined strata,
(ii) amortized in proportion to estimated net servicing
income and (iii) evaluated for impairment at least
quarterly. The effects of measuring servicing rights at fair
value after the adoption of SFAS No. 156 are recorded
in Change in fair value of mortgage servicing rights in the
Companys Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations
for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006. The
effects of carrying servicing rights at the lower of cost or
fair value prior to the adoption of SFAS No. 156 are
recorded in Amortization and recovery of impairment of mortgage
servicing rights in the Companys Condensed Consolidated
Statement of Operations for the three and nine months ended
September 30, 2005.
The adoption of SFAS No. 156 on January 1, 2006
did not have a material impact on the Companys Condensed
Consolidated Financial Statements as all of the servicing asset
strata were impaired as of December 31, 2005.

Recently
Issued Accounting Pronouncements
|
Accounting for Hybrid Instruments. In
February 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 155,
Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial Instruments
(SFAS No. 155). SFAS No. 155
permits an entity to elect fair value measurement of any hybrid
financial instrument that contains an embedded derivative that
otherwise would have required bifurcation, clarifies which
interest-only and principal-only strips are not subject to the
requirements of SFAS No. 133, Accounting for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
(SFAS No. 133) and establishes a
requirement to evaluate interests in securitized financial
assets to identify interests that are freestanding derivatives
or that are hybrid financial instruments that contain an
embedded derivative requiring bifurcation.
SFAS No. 155 is effective January 1, 2007. The
Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting
SFAS No. 155 on its Consolidated Financial Statements.
Uncertainty in Income Taxes. In July
2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 48,
Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes
(FIN 48). FIN 48 prescribes a recognition
threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement
recognition and measurement of a tax position taken in a tax
return. The Company must presume the tax position will be
examined by the relevant tax authority and determine whether it
is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained
upon examination, including resolution of any related appeals or
litigation processes, based on the technical merits of the
position. A tax position that meets the more-likely-than-not
recognition threshold is measured to determine the amount of
benefit to recognize in the financial statements. FIN 48
also provides guidance on derecognition, classification,
interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods,
disclosure and transition. FIN 48 is effective
January 1, 2007. The cumulative effect of applying the
provisions of FIN 48 represents a change in accounting
principle and shall be reported as an adjustment to the opening
balance of Retained earnings. The Company is currently
evaluating the impact of adopting FIN 48 on its
Consolidated Financial Statements.
Fair Value Measurements. In September
2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value
Measurements (SFAS No. 157).
SFAS No. 157 defines fair value, establishes a
framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted
accounting principles and expands disclosures about fair value
measurements. The changes to current practice resulting from the
application of SFAS No. 157 relate to the definition
of fair value, the methods used to measure fair value and the
expanded disclosures about fair value measurements.
SFAS No. 157 is effective for financial statements
issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007.
Earlier application is encouraged, provided that the reporting
entity has not yet issued financial statements for that fiscal
year, including financial statements for an interim period
within that fiscal year. The provisions of
SFAS No. 157 should be
13
PHH
CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS (Continued)
(Unaudited)
applied prospectively as of the beginning of the fiscal year in
which it is initially applied, except for certain financial
instruments which require retrospective application as of the
beginning of the fiscal year of initial application (a limited
form of retrospective application). The transition adjustment,
measured as the difference between the carrying amounts and the
fair values of those financial instruments at the date
SFAS No. 157 is initially applied, should be
recognized as a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening
balance of Retained earnings. The Company is currently
evaluating the impact of adopting SFAS No. 157 on its
Consolidated Financial Statements and whether to adopt its
provisions prior to the required effective date.
Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement
Plans. In September 2006, the FASB issued
SFAS No. 158, Employers Accounting for
Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans
(SFAS No. 158). SFAS No. 158
requires an employer to recognize the overfunded or underfunded
status of a defined benefit postretirement plan (other than a
multiemployer plan) as an asset or liability in its statement of
financial position and to recognize changes in that funded
status in the year in which the changes occur through
comprehensive income, net of income taxes.
SFAS No. 158 also requires an employer to measure the
funded status of a plan as of the date of its year-end statement
of financial position. The recognition provisions of
SFAS No. 158 are effective on December 31, 2006,
and the requirement to measure plan assets and benefit
obligations as of the date of the employers fiscal
year-end statement of financial position is effective for fiscal
years ending after December 15, 2008. Prospective
application is required. The Company does not expect the
adoption of SFAS No. 158 to have a significant impact
on its Consolidated Financial Statements.
Effects of Prior Year Misstatements. In
September 2006, the SEC issued SAB No. 108,
Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when
Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial
Statements (SAB 108). SAB 108
requires that registrants quantify errors using both a balance
sheet and income statement approach and evaluate whether either
approach results in a misstated amount that, when all relevant
quantitative and qualitative factors are considered, is
material. SAB 108 permits public companies to initially
apply its provisions either by (i) restating prior year
financial statements or (ii) recording the cumulative
effect as adjustments to the carrying values of assets and
liabilities with an offsetting adjustment recorded to the
opening balance of Retained earnings. SAB 108 is effective
for fiscal years ending after November 15, 2006. The
Company does not expect the adoption of SAB 108 to have a
significant impact on its Consolidated Financial Statements.
Fair Value Option. In February 2007,
the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value
Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities
(SFAS No. 159). SFAS No. 159
permits entities to choose, at specified election dates, to
measure eligible items at fair value (the Fair Value
Option). Unrealized gains and losses on items for which
the Fair Value Option has been elected are reported in earnings.
The Fair Value Option is applied instrument by instrument (with
certain exceptions), is irrevocable (unless a new election date
occurs) and is applied only to an entire instrument. The effect
of the first remeasurement to fair value is reported as a
cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of Retained
earnings. SFAS No. 159 is effective for fiscal years
beginning after November 15, 2007 with earlier application
permitted, subject to certain conditions. The Company is
currently evaluating the impact of adopting
SFAS No. 159 on its Consolidated Financial Statements
and whether to adopt its provisions prior to the required
effective date.

(Loss)
Earnings Per Share
|
Basic (loss) earnings per share was computed by dividing net
(loss) earnings during the period by the weighted-average number
of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted (loss) earnings
per share was computed by dividing net (loss) earnings by the
weighted-average number of shares outstanding, assuming all
potentially dilutive common shares were issued. The calculation
of diluted loss per share for the three months ended
September 30, 2006 does not include 500,571 and 147,059
weighted-average shares of common stock potentially issuable for
stock options and RSUs, respectively, because the effect would
be anti-dilutive. The calculation of diluted loss per share for
the nine months ended September 30, 2006 does not include
539,024 and 273,145 weighted-average shares of common stock
potentially issuable for stock options and RSUs, respectively,
because

As of September 30, 2006, the Companys MSRs had a
weighted-average life of approximately 4.8 years.
Approximately 69% of the MSRs associated with the loan servicing
portfolio as of September 30, 2006 were restricted from
sale without prior approval from the Companys private
label clients or investors.
The following summarizes certain information regarding the
initial and ending capitalization rates of the Companys

Prior to June 30, 2006, certain home equity loans
subserviced for others were excluded from the disclosed
portfolio activity. As a result of a systems conversion during
the second quarter of 2006, these loans subserviced for others
are now includable in the portfolio balance as of
September 30, 2006. The amounts of home equity loans
subserviced for others and excluded from the portfolio balance
as of January 1, 2006, January 1, 2005 and
September 30, 2005 were approximately $2.5 billion,
$2.7 billion and $2.5 billion, respectively. |

Derivatives
and Risk Management Activities
|
The Companys principal market exposure is to interest rate
risk, specifically long-term U.S. Treasury
(Treasury) and mortgage interest rates due to their
impact on mortgage-related assets and commitments. The Company
also has exposure to the London Interbank Offered Rate
(LIBOR) and commercial paper interest rates due to
their impact on variable-rate borrowings, other interest rate
sensitive liabilities and net investment in variable-rate lease
assets. The Company uses various financial instruments,
including swap contracts, forward delivery commitments, futures
and options contracts to manage and reduce this risk.
The following is a description of the Companys risk
management policies related to interest rate lock commitments
(IRLCs), MLHS, MSRs and debt:
Interest Rate Lock Commitments. IRLCs
represent an agreement to extend credit to a mortgage loan
applicant whereby the interest rate on the loan is set prior to
funding. The loan commitment binds the Company (subject to the
loan approval process) to lend funds to a potential borrower at
the specified rate, regardless of whether interest rates have
changed between the commitment date and the loan funding date.
The Companys loan commitments generally range between 30
and 90 days; however, the borrower is not obligated to
obtain the loan. As such, the Companys outstanding IRLCs
are subject to interest rate risk and related price risk during
the period from the IRLC through the loan funding date or
expiration date. In addition, the Company is subject to fallout
risk, which is the risk that an approved borrower will choose
not to close on the loan. The Company uses a combination of
forward delivery commitments and option contracts to manage
these risks. The Company considers historical
commitment-to-closing
ratios to estimate the quantity of mortgage loans that will fund
within the terms of the IRLCs.
IRLCs are defined as derivative instruments under
SFAS No. 133, as amended by SFAS No. 149,
Amendment of Statement No. 133 on Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities
(SFAS No. 149). Because IRLCs are
considered derivatives, the associated risk management
activities do not qualify for hedge accounting under
SFAS No. 133. Therefore, the IRLCs and the related
derivative instruments are considered freestanding derivatives
and are classified as Other assets or Other liabilities in the
Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets with changes in their fair
values recorded as a component of Gain on sale of mortgage
loans, net in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of
Operations.
Mortgage Loans Held for Sale. The
Company is subject to interest rate and price risk on its MLHS
from the loan funding date until the date the loan is sold into
the secondary market. The Company uses mortgage forward delivery
commitments to hedge these risks. These forward delivery
commitments fix the forward sales price that will be realized in
the secondary market and thereby reduce the interest rate and
price risk to the Company. Such forward delivery commitments are
designated and classified as fair value hedges to the extent
they qualify for hedge accounting under SFAS No. 133.
Forward delivery commitments that do not qualify for hedge
accounting are considered freestanding derivatives. The forward
delivery commitments are included in Other assets or Other
liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Changes in the fair value of all forward delivery commitments
are recorded as a component of Gain on sale of mortgage loans,
net in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Changes in the fair value of MLHS are recorded as a component of
Gain on sale of mortgage loans, net to the extent they qualify
for hedge accounting under SFAS No. 133. Changes in
the fair value of MLHS are not recorded to the extent the hedge
relationship is deemed to be ineffective under
SFAS No. 133.
The Company uses forward loan sales commitments, Treasury
futures and options on Treasury securities in its risk
management activities related to its IRLCs and MLHS.

Amount includes $(8) million and $6 million of

months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively, and
$1 million and $8 million of ineffectiveness
recognized on hedges of MLHS during the nine months ended
September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively, due to the
application of SFAS No. 133. In accordance with
SFAS No. 133, the change in the value of MLHS is only
recorded to the extent the related derivatives are considered
hedge effective. The ineffective portion of designated
derivatives represents the change in the fair value of
derivatives for which there were no corresponding changes in the
value of the loans that did not qualify for hedge accounting
under SFAS No. 133. |
|

|
During the three months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005,
the Company recognized $1 million and $(8) million,
respectively, of hedge ineffectiveness on derivatives designated
as hedges of MLHS that qualified for hedge accounting under
SFAS No. 133. During the nine months ended
September 30, 2006 and 2005, the Company recognized
$(5) million and $(19) million, respectively, of hedge
ineffectiveness on derivatives designated as hedges of MLHS that
qualified for hedge accounting under SFAS No. 133. |
Mortgage Servicing Rights. The
Companys MSRs are subject to substantial interest rate
risk as the mortgage notes underlying the MSRs permit the
borrowers to prepay the loans. Therefore, the value of the MSRs
tends to diminish in periods of declining interest rates (as
prepayments increase) and increase in periods of rising interest
rates (as prepayments decrease). The Company uses a combination
of derivative instruments to offset potential adverse changes in
the fair value of its MSRs that could affect reported earnings.
The gain or loss on derivatives is intended to react in the
opposite direction of the change in the fair value of MSRs. The
MSRs derivatives generally increase in value as interest rates
decline and decrease in value as interest rates rise. For all
periods presented, all of the derivatives associated with the
MSRs were freestanding derivatives and were not designated in a
hedge relationship pursuant to SFAS No. 133. These
derivatives are classified as Other assets or Other liabilities
in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets with changes in
their fair values recorded in Net derivative gain (loss) related
to mortgage servicing rights in the Condensed Consolidated
Statements of Operations.
The Company uses interest rate swap contracts, interest rate
futures contracts, interest rate forward contracts, mortgage
forward contracts, options on forward contracts, options on
futures contracts, options on swap contracts and principal-only
swaps in its risk management activities related to its MSRs.

Debt. The Company uses various hedging
strategies and derivative financial instruments to create a
desired mix of fixed- and variable-rate assets and
liabilities. Derivative instruments used in these hedging
strategies include swaps, interest rate caps and instruments
with purchased option features. To more closely match the
characteristics of the related assets, including the
Companys net investment in variable-rate lease assets, the
Company either issues variable-rate debt or fixed-rate debt,
which may be swapped to variable LIBOR-based rates. The
derivatives used to manage the risk associated with the
Companys fixed-rate debt include instruments that were
designated as fair value hedges as well as instruments that were
not designated as fair value hedges. The terms of the
derivatives that were designated as fair value hedges match
those of the underlying hedged debt resulting in no net impact
on the Companys results of operations during the three
months and nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005,
except to create the accrual of interest expense at variable
rates. The Company recognized gains of $1 million during
the three months ended September 30, 2006 related to
instruments which do not qualify for hedge accounting treatment
pursuant to SFAS No. 133, which were recorded in
Mortgage interest expense in the Condensed Consolidated
Statement of Operations. Losses recognized during the nine
months ended September 30, 2006 related to instruments
which do not qualify for hedge accounting treatment pursuant to
SFAS No. 133 were not significant and were recorded in
Mortgage interest expense in the Condensed Consolidated
Statement of Operations. The Company recognized losses of
$2 million during both the three and nine months ended
September 30, 2005 related to instruments which do not
qualify for hedge accounting treatment pursuant to
SFAS No. 133, which were recorded in Mortgage interest
expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
From time to time, the Company uses derivatives that convert
variable cash flows to fixed cash flows to manage the risk
associated with its variable-rate debt and net investment in
variable-rate lease assets. Such derivatives may include
freestanding derivatives and derivatives designated as cash flow
hedges. The Company recognized net gains of $1 million
during the three months ended September 30, 2006 related to
instruments that were not designated as cash flow hedges, which
were included in Fleet interest expense in the Condensed
Consolidated Statement of Operations. Net losses related to
instruments that were not designated as cash flow hedges for the
three months ended September 30, 2005 and the nine months
ended September 30, 2006 and 2005

Management Asset-Backed Debt
As of December 31, 2005, vehicle management asset-backed
debt primarily represented variable-rate term notes and variable
funding notes issued by Chesapeake Funding LLC, a wholly owned
subsidiary. Variable-rate term notes and variable funding notes
outstanding under this arrangement as of December 31, 2005
aggregated $3.0 billion. As of December 31, 2005,
subordinated notes issued by Terrapin Funding LLC
(Terrapin), a consolidated entity, aggregated
$367 million. This debt was issued to support the
acquisition of vehicles used by the Fleet Management Services
segments leasing operations.
On March 7, 2006, Chesapeake Funding LLC changed its name
to Chesapeake Finance Holdings LLC (Chesapeake
Finance), and it and Terrapin redeemed all of their
outstanding term notes, variable funding notes and subordinated
notes (with aggregate outstanding principal balances of
$1.1 billion, $1.7 billion and $367 million,
respectively) and terminated the agreements associated with
those borrowings. Concurrently, Chesapeake Funding LLC
(Chesapeake), a newly formed wholly owned
subsidiary, issued variable funding notes under
Series 2006-1,
with capacity of $2.7 billion, and
Series 2006-2,
with capacity of $1.0 billion, to fund the redemption of
this debt and provide additional committed funding for the Fleet
Management Services operations. The Company recorded a
$4 million loss on the extinguishment of the Chesapeake
Finance and Terrapin debt that was included in Other operating
expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations
for the nine months ended September 30, 2006.

As of September 30, 2006, variable funding notes
outstanding under this arrangement aggregated $3.4 billion
and were issued to redeem the Chesapeake Finance and Terrapin
debt and support the acquisition of vehicles used by the Fleet
Management Services segments leasing operations. The debt
issued as of September 30, 2006 was collateralized by
approximately $4.0 billion of leased vehicles and related
assets, which are primarily included in Net investment in fleet
leases in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet and are not
available to pay the Companys general obligations. The
titles to all the vehicles collateralizing the debt issued by
Chesapeake are held in a bankruptcy remote trust, and the
Company acts as a servicer of all such leases. The bankruptcy
remote trust also acts as lessor under both operating and direct
financing lease agreements. As of September 30, 2006, the
agreements governing the
Series 2006-1
and
Series 2006-2
notes were scheduled to expire on March 6, 2007 and
December 1, 2006, respectively (the Scheduled Expiry
Dates). These agreements are renewable on or before the
Scheduled Expiry Dates, subject to agreement by the parties. If
the agreements are not renewed, monthly repayments on the notes
are required to be made as certain cash inflows are received
relating to the securitized vehicle leases and related assets
beginning in the month following the Scheduled Expiry Dates and
ending up to 125 months after the Scheduled Expiry Dates.
The weighted-average interest rate of vehicle management
asset-backed debt arrangements was 5.7% and 4.8% as of
September 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005, respectively.
As of September 30, 2006, the total capacity under vehicle
management asset-backed debt arrangements was approximately
$3.7 billion, and the Company had $288 million of
unused capacity available. See Note 19, Subsequent
Events for a discussion of modifications made to vehicle
management asset-backed debt arrangements after
September 30, 2006.

(Bishops Gate) is a consolidated bankruptcy
remote special purpose entity that is utilized to warehouse
mortgage loans originated by the Company prior to their sale
into the secondary market. The activities of Bishops Gate

retirement of this debt were provided by a combination of the
sale of mortgage loans and the issuance of commercial paper
issued by Bishops Gate. The Bishops Gate Notes are
variable-rate instruments and, as of September 30, 2006,
were scheduled to mature in November 2008. The weighted-average
interest rate on the Bishops Gate Notes as of

December 31, 2005, the Bishops Gate commercial paper,
issued under the Amended and Restated Liquidity Agreement, dated

the debt issued by Bishops Gate was collateralized by
approximately $1.0 billion of underlying mortgage loans and
related assets, primarily recorded in Mortgage loans held for
sale, net in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. See
Note 19, Subsequent Events for a discussion of
modifications made to Bishops Gates mortgage
warehouse asset-backed debt arrangements after
September 30, 2006.
The Company also maintains a $500 million committed
mortgage repurchase facility (the Mortgage Repurchase
Facility) that is used to finance mortgage loans
originated by PHH Mortgage Corporation (PHH
Mortgage), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. The
Company generally uses this facility to supplement the capacity
of Bishops Gate and unsecured borrowings used to fund the
Companys mortgage warehouse needs. As of
September 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005, borrowings
under this variable-rate facility were $179 million and
$247 million, respectively. The Mortgage Repurchase
Facility was collateralized by underlying mortgage loans of
$203 million, included in Mortgage loans held for sale, net
in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of
September 30, 2006, and is funded by a multi-seller
conduit. As of September 30, 2006 and December 31,
2005, borrowings under the Mortgage Repurchase Facility bore
interest at 5.4% and 4.3%, respectively. The Mortgage Repurchase
Facility was scheduled to expire on January 12, 2007. See
Note 19, Subsequent Events for a discussion of
modifications made to the Mortgage Repurchase Facility after
September 30, 2006.
On June 1, 2006, the Mortgage Venture entered into a
$350 million repurchase facility (the Mortgage
Venture Repurchase Facility) with Bank of Montreal and
Barclays Bank PLC as Bank Principals and Fairway Finance
Company, LLC and Sheffield Receivables Corporation as Conduit
Principals. Borrowings outstanding under the Mortgage Venture
Repurchase Facility were $268 million and were
collateralized by underlying mortgage loans and related assets
of $330 million, primarily included in Mortgage loans held
for sale, net in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of
September 30, 2006. The cost of the facility is based upon
the commercial paper issued by the Conduit Principals plus a
program fee of 30 bps, which was 5.4% as of
September 30, 2006. In addition, the Mortgage Venture pays
an annual liquidity fee of 20 bps on 102% of the program
size. The maturity date for this facility is June 1, 2009,
subject to annual renewals of certain underlying conduit
liquidity arrangements.
The Mortgage Venture maintains a secured line of credit
agreement with Barclays Bank PLC, Bank of Montreal and JPMorgan
Chase Bank, N.A. that is used to finance mortgage loans
originated by the Mortgage Venture. During the second quarter of
2006, the capacity of this line of credit was reduced from
$350 million to $200 million following the execution
of the Mortgage Venture Repurchase Facility. Borrowings
outstanding under this line of credit were $106 million and
$177 million as of September 30, 2006 and
December 31, 2005, respectively, and, as of
September 30, 2006, were collateralized by underlying
mortgage loans and related assets of $122 million,
primarily included in Mortgage loans held for sale, net in the
Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. During the third quarter
of 2006, the expiration date of this agreement was extended to
January 3, 2007. This variable-rate credit agreement bore
interest at 6.2% and 5.2% on September 30, 2006 and
December 31, 2005, respectively. See Note 19,
Subsequent Events for a discussion of modifications
made to the Mortgage Ventures $200 million secured
line of credit agreement after September 30, 2006.
As of September 30, 2006, the total capacity under mortgage
warehouse asset-backed debt arrangements was approximately
$3.0 billion, and the Company had approximately
$1.5 billion of unused capacity available.

Indenture Trustee) that mature between January 2007 and
April 2018. On September 14, 2006, the Company concluded a
tender offer and consent solicitation (the Offer)
for MTNs issued under the MTN Indenture. The Company received
consents on behalf of $585 million and tenders and consents
on behalf of $416 million of the aggregate notional
principal amount of the $1.1 billion of the MTNs.
Borrowings of $415 million were drawn under the
Companys Tender Support Facility (defined and described
below) to fund the bulk of the tendered MTNs. The effective rate
of interest for the MTNs outstanding as of both
September 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005 was 6.8%.
Commercial
Paper
The Companys policy is to maintain available capacity
under its committed credit facilities (described below) to fully
support its outstanding unsecured commercial paper. The Company
had unsecured commercial paper obligations of $582 million
and $747 million as of September 30, 2006 and
December 31, 2005, respectively. This commercial paper is
fixed-rate and matures within 270 days of issuance. The
weighted-average interest rate on outstanding unsecured
commercial paper as of September 30, 2006 and
December 31, 2005 was 5.6% and 4.7%, respectively.
Credit
Facilities
As of December 31, 2005, the Company was party to a
$1.25 billion Three Year Competitive Advance and Revolving
Credit Agreement (the Credit Facility), dated as of
June 28, 2004 and amended as of December 21, 2004,
among PHH Corporation, a group of lenders and JPMorgan Chase
Bank, N.A., as administrative agent. On January 6, 2006,
the Company entered into the Amended and Restated Competitive
Advance and Revolving Credit Agreement (the Amended Credit
Facility), among PHH Corporation, a group of lenders and
JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent, which
increased the capacity of the Credit Facility from
$1.25 billion to $1.30 billion, extended the
termination date from June 28, 2007 to January 6, 2011
and created a $50 million United States dollar equivalent
Canadian
sub-facility,
which is available to the Companys Fleet Management
Services operations in Canada. Pricing under the Amended Credit
Facility is based upon the Companys senior unsecured
long-term debt ratings. If the ratings on the Companys
senior unsecured long-term debt assigned by Moodys
Investors Service, Standard & Poors and Fitch
Ratings are not equivalent to each other, the second highest
credit rating assigned by them determines pricing under the
Amended Credit Facility. Borrowings under the Amended Credit
Facility bore interest at LIBOR plus a margin of 38 basis
points (bps) as of September 30, 2006. The
Amended Credit Facility also requires the Company to pay
utilization fees if its usage exceeds 50% of the aggregate
commitments under the Amended Credit Facility and per annum
facility fees. As of September 30, 2006, the per annum
utilization and facility fees were 10 bps and 12 bps,
respectively. Borrowings under the Amended Credit Facility were
$291 million as of September 30, 2006. There were no
borrowings under the Credit Facility as of December 31,
2005.
On April 6, 2006, the Company entered into a
$500 million unsecured revolving credit agreement (the
Supplemental Credit Facility) with a group of
lenders and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent,
that was scheduled to expire on April 5, 2007. Borrowings
under the Supplemental Credit Facility were $325 million as
of September 30, 2006. Pricing under the Supplemental
Credit Facility is based upon the Companys senior
unsecured long-term debt ratings. If the ratings on the
Companys senior unsecured long-term debt assigned by
Moodys Investors Service, Standard & Poors
and Fitch Ratings are not equivalent to each other, the second
highest credit rating assigned by them determines pricing under
the Supplemental Credit Facility. Borrowings under the
Supplemental Credit Facility bore interest at LIBOR plus a
margin of 38 bps as of September 30, 2006. The
Supplemental Credit Facility also requires the Company to pay
per annum utilization fees if its usage exceeds 50% of the
aggregate commitments under the Supplemental Credit Facility and
per annum facility fees. As of September 30, 2006, the per
annum utilization and facility fees were 10 bps and
12 bps, respectively. The Company was also required to pay
an additional facility fee of 10 bps against the
outstanding commitments under the facility as of October 6,
2006.

On July 21, 2006, the Company entered into a
$750 million unsecured credit agreement (the Tender
Support Facility) with a group of lenders and JPMorgan
Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent, that was scheduled to
expire on April 5, 2007. The Tender Support Facility
provided $750 million of capacity solely for the repayment
of the MTNs, and was put in place in conjunction with the Offer.
Borrowings under the Tender Support Facility were
$415 million as of September 30, 2006. Pricing under
the Tender Support Facility is based upon the Companys
senior unsecured long-term debt ratings assigned by Moodys
Investors Service and Standard & Poors. If those
ratings are not equivalent to each other, the higher credit
rating assigned by them determines pricing under this agreement,
unless there is more than one rating level difference between
the two ratings, in which case the rating one level below the
higher rating is applied. Borrowings under this agreement bore
interest at LIBOR plus a margin of 60 bps on or before
December 14, 2006 and 75 bps from December 15,
2006 until Standard & Poors downgraded its rating
on the Companys senior unsecured debt on January 22,
2007. The Tender Support Facility also required the Company to
pay an initial fee of 10 bps of the commitment and a per
annum commitment fee of 12 bps prior to the downgrade. (See
Note 19, Subsequent Events for further
discussion of the effects of the downgrade.) In addition, the
Company paid a one-time fee of 15 bps against borrowings of
$415 million drawn under the Tender Support Facility.
The Company maintains other unsecured credit facilities in the
ordinary course of business as set forth in Debt
Maturities below. See Note 19, Subsequent
Events for a discussion of modifications made to the
Companys unsecured credit facilities and changes in the
Companys senior unsecured long-term debt ratings after
September 30, 2006.

Available capacity reflects a reduction in availability due to
an allocation against the facilities of $582 million which
fully supports the outstanding unsecured commercial paper issued
by the Company as of September 30, 2006. Under the
Companys policy, all of the outstanding unsecured
commercial paper is supported by available capacity under its
unsecured committed credit facilities. In addition, utilized
capacity reflects $2 million of letters of credit issued
under the Amended Credit Facility. See Note 19,
Subsequent Events for information regarding changes
in the Companys capacity under asset-backed debt
arrangements and unsecured committed credit facilities after
September 30, 2006. |
Beginning on March 16, 2006, access to the Companys
shelf registration statement for public debt issuances was no
longer available due to the Companys non-current filing
status with the SEC.
Debt
Covenants
Certain of the Companys debt arrangements require the
maintenance of certain financial ratios and contain restrictive
covenants, including, but not limited to, restrictions on
indebtedness of material subsidiaries, mergers, liens,
liquidations and sale and leaseback transactions. The Amended
Credit Facility, the Supplemental Credit Facility and the Tender
Support Facility require that the Company maintain: (i) on
the last day of each fiscal quarter, net worth of
$1.0 billion plus 25% of net income, if positive, for each
fiscal quarter ended after December 31, 2004 and
(ii) at any time, a ratio of indebtedness to tangible net
worth no greater than 10:1. The MTN Indenture requires that the
Company maintain a debt to tangible equity ratio of not more
than 10:1. The MTN Indenture also restricts the Company from
paying dividends if, after giving effect to the dividend, the
debt to equity ratio exceeds 6.5:1. At September 30, 2006,
the Company was in compliance with all of its financial
covenants related to its debt arrangements.
Under many of the Companys financing, servicing, hedging
and related agreements and instruments (collectively, the
Financing Agreements), the Company is required to
provide consolidated
and/or
subsidiary-level audited annual financial statements, unaudited
quarterly financial statements and related documents. The delay
in completing the 2005 audited financial statements, the
restatement of financial results for periods prior to the
quarter ended December 31, 2005 and the delay in completing
the unaudited quarterly financial statements for 2006 created
the potential for breaches under certain of the Financing
Agreements for failure to deliver the financial statements
and/or
documents by specified deadlines, as well as potential breaches
of other covenants.
On March 17, 2006, the Company obtained waivers under its
Amended Credit Facility and its Bishops Gate Liquidity
Agreement which extended the deadlines for the delivery of the
2005 annual audited financial statements, the unaudited
financial statements for the quarter ended March 31, 2006
and related documents to June 15, 2006 and waived certain
other potential breaches.
On May 26, 2006, the Company obtained waivers under its
Supplemental Credit Facility and its Amended Credit Facility
which extended the deadlines for the delivery of the 2005 annual
audited financial statements, the
28
PHH
CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

unaudited financial statements for the quarters ended
March 31, 2006 and June 30, 2006 and related documents
to September 30, 2006 and waived certain other potential
breaches.
On July 12, 2006, Bishops Gate received a notice (the
Notice), dated July 10, 2006, from the
Bishops Gate Trustee, that certain events of default had
occurred under the Bishops Gate Indenture. The Notice
indicated that events of default occurred as a result of
Bishops Gates failure to provide the Bishops
Gate Trustee with the Companys and certain other audited
and unaudited quarterly financial statements as required under
the Bishops Gate Indenture. While the Notice further
informed the holders of the Bishops Gate Notes of these
events of default, the Notice received did not constitute a
notice of acceleration of repayment of the Bishops Gate
Notes. The Notice created an event of default under the
Bishops Gate Liquidity Agreement. The Company sought
waivers of any events of default from the holders of the
Bishops Gate Notes as well as the lenders under the
Bishops Gate Liquidity Agreement.
As of August 15, 2006, the Company received all of the
required approvals and executed a Supplemental Indenture to the
Bishops Gate Indenture waiving any event of default
arising as a result of the failure to provide the Bishops
Gate Trustee with the Companys 2005 annual audited
financial statements, the Companys unaudited financial
statements for the quarters ended March 31, 2006 and
June 30, 2006 and certain other documents as required under
the Bishops Gate Indenture. This Supplemental Indenture
also extended the deadline for the delivery of the required
financial statements to the Bishops Gate Trustee and the
rating agencies to the earlier of December 31, 2006 or the
date on or after September 30, 2006 by which such financial
statements were required to be delivered to the bank group under
the Bishops Gate Liquidity Agreement. Also effective on
August 15, 2006 was a related waiver of any default under
the Bishops Gate Liquidity Agreement caused by the Notice
under the Bishops Gate Indenture for failure to deliver
the required financial statements.
Upon receipt of the required consents related to the Offer on
September 14, 2006, Supplemental Indenture No. 4 to
the MTN Indenture (Supplemental Indenture
No. 4), dated August 31, 2006, between the
Company and the MTN Indenture Trustee became effective.
Supplemental Indenture No. 4 extended the deadline for the
delivery of the Companys financial statements for the year
ended December 31, 2005, the quarterly periods ended
March 31, 2006, June 30, 2006 and September 30,
2006 and related documents to December 31, 2006. In
addition, Supplemental Indenture No. 4 provided for the
waiver of all defaults that occurred prior to August 31,
2006 relating to the Companys financial statements and
other delivery requirements.
On September 19, 2006, the Company obtained waivers under
its Amended Credit Facility, Supplemental Credit Facility, the
Tender Support Facility and the Bishops Gate Liquidity
Agreement which extended the deadline for the delivery of the
2005 annual audited financial statements and related documents
to November 30, 2006. The waivers also extended the
deadline for the delivery of the unaudited financial statements
for the quarters ended March 31, 2006, June 30, 2006
and September 30, 2006 and related documents to
December 29, 2006.
See Note 19, Subsequent Events for a discussion
of additional debt waivers obtained by the Company which
extended the deadlines for the delivery of financial statements
and related documents under certain of the Financing Agreements.
Under certain of the Financing Agreements, the lenders or
trustees have the right to notify the Company if they believe it
has breached a covenant under the operative documents and may
declare an event of default. If one or more notices of default
were to be given, the Company believes it would have various
periods in which to cure such events of default. If it does not
cure the events of default or obtain necessary waivers within
the required time periods or certain extended time periods, the
maturity of some of its debt could be accelerated and its
ability to incur additional indebtedness could be restricted. In
addition, events of default or acceleration under certain of the
Companys Financing Agreements would trigger cross-default
provisions under certain of its other Financing Agreements. See
Note 19, Subsequent Events for a further
discussion of potential events of default under the Financing
Agreements.

The Company records its interim tax provisions by applying a
projected full-year effective income tax rate to its quarterly
(Loss) income from continuing operations before income taxes and
minority interest for results that it deems to be reliably
estimable in accordance with FASB Interpretation No. 18,
Accounting for Income Taxes in Interim Periods.
Certain results dependent on fair value adjustments of the
Companys Mortgage Production and Mortgage Servicing
segments are considered not to be reliably estimable and
therefore the Company records discrete
year-to-date
income tax provisions on those results.
During the three months ended September 30, 2006, the
income tax benefit was $25 million and was significantly
impacted by a $13 million decrease in income tax
contingency reserves and a $2 million increase in valuation
allowances for state net operating losses (NOLs)
generated during the three months ended September 30, 2006
for which the Company believes it is more likely than not that
the NOLs will not be realized. In addition, the Company recorded
a state income tax benefit of $5 million. Due to the
Companys
year-to-date
and projected full-year mix of income and loss from its
operations by entity and state income tax jurisdiction in 2006,
there was a significant change in the 2006 state income tax
effective rate in comparison to 2005.
During the three months ended September 30, 2005, the
Provision for income taxes was $35 million.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2006, the
Provision for income taxes was $10 million and was
significantly impacted by an $11 million increase in income
tax contingency reserves and a $3 million increase in
valuation allowances for state NOLs generated during the nine
months ended September 30, 2006 for which the Company
believes it is more likely than not that the NOLs will not be
realized. In addition, the Company recorded a state income tax
benefit of $3 million. Due to the Companys

and projected full-year mix of income and loss from its
operations by entity and state income tax jurisdiction in 2006,
there was a significant change in the 2006 state income tax
effective rate in comparison to 2005.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2005, the
Provision for income taxes was $64 million and was

related to the Spin-Off of $5 million representing the
change in estimated deferred state income taxes for state

Tax
Contingencies
In connection with the Spin-Off, the Company and Cendant entered
into a tax sharing agreement dated January 31, 2005, which
was amended on December 21, 2005 (the Amended Tax
Sharing Agreement). The Amended Tax Sharing Agreement
governs the allocation of liabilities for taxes between Cendant
and the Company, indemnification for certain tax liabilities and
responsibility for preparing and filing tax returns and
defending tax contests, as well as other tax-related matters.
The Amended Tax Sharing Agreement contains certain provisions
relating to the treatment of the ultimate settlement of Cendant
tax contingencies that relate to audit adjustments due to taxing
authorities review of income tax returns. The
Companys tax basis in certain assets may be adjusted in
the future, and the Company may be required to remit tax
benefits ultimately realized by the Company to Cendant in
certain circumstances. Certain of the effects of future
adjustments relating to years the Company was included in
Cendants income tax returns that change the tax basis of
assets, liabilities and net operating loss and tax credit
carryforward amounts may be recorded in equity rather than as an
adjustment to the tax provision.
Also, pursuant to the Amended Tax Sharing Agreement, the Company
and Cendant have agreed to indemnify each other for certain
liabilities and obligations. The Companys indemnification
obligations could be significant in certain circumstances. For
example, the Company is required to indemnify Cendant for any
taxes incurred by it

(Unaudited)
and its affiliates as a result of any action, misrepresentation
or omission by the Company or its affiliates that causes the
distribution of the Companys Common stock by Cendant or
the internal reorganization transactions relating thereto to
fail to qualify as tax-free. In the event that the Spin-Off or
the internal reorganization transactions relating thereto do not
qualify as tax-free for any reason other than the actions,
misrepresentations or omissions of Cendant or the Company or its
respective subsidiaries, then the Company would be responsible
for 13.7% of any taxes resulting from such a determination. This
percentage was based on the relative pro forma net book values
of Cendant and the Company as of September 30, 2004,
without giving effect to any adjustments to the book values of
certain long-lived assets that may be required as a result of
the Spin-Off and the related transactions. The Company cannot
determine whether it will have to indemnify Cendant or its
affiliates for any substantial obligations in the future. The
Company also has no assurance that if Cendant or any of its
affiliates is required to indemnify the Company for any
substantial obligations, they will be able to satisfy those
obligations.
Cendant and its subsidiaries are the subject of an Internal
Revenue Service (IRS) audit for the tax years ended
December 31, 2003 through 2006. The Company, since it was a
subsidiary of Cendant through January 31, 2005, is included
in this IRS audit of Cendant. Under certain provisions of the
IRS regulations, the Company and its subsidiaries are subject to
several liability to the IRS (together with Cendant and certain
of its affiliates (the Cendant Group) prior to the
Spin-Off) for any consolidated federal income tax liability of
the Cendant Group arising in a taxable year during any part of
which they were members of the Cendant Group. Cendant disclosed
in its Annual Report on
Form 10-K
for the year ended December 31, 2006 (filed on
March 1, 2007 under Avis Budget Group, Inc.) that it
settled the IRS audit for the taxable years 1998 through 2002
that included the Company. As provided in the Amended Tax
Sharing Agreement, Cendant is responsible for and required to
pay to the IRS all taxes required to be reported on the
consolidated federal returns for taxable periods ended on or
before January 31, 2005. Pursuant to the Amended Tax
Sharing Agreement, Cendant is solely responsible for separate
state taxes on a significant number of the Companys income
tax returns for years 2003 and prior. In addition, Cendant is
solely responsible for paying tax deficiencies arising from
adjustments to the Companys federal income tax returns and
for the Companys state and local income tax returns filed
on a consolidated, combined or unitary basis with Cendant for
taxable periods ended on or before the Spin-Off, except for
those taxes which might be attributable to the Spin-Off or
internal reorganization transactions relating thereto, as more
fully discussed above. The Company will be solely responsible
for any tax deficiencies arising from adjustments to separate
state and local income tax returns for taxable periods ending
after 2003 and for adjustments to federal and all state and
local income tax returns for periods after the Spin-Off.
The June 1999 disposition of the fleet businesses by Cendant was
structured as a tax-free reorganization by Cendant pursuant to
the IRS guidance at the time of the transaction. Accordingly, no
income tax expense was recorded on a majority of the gain from
this transaction. However, pursuant to an interpretive ruling,
the IRS has subsequently taken the position that similarly
structured transactions do not qualify as tax-free
reorganizations under the Internal Revenue Code
Section 368(a)(1)(A). An adverse ruling by the IRS on the
tax-free structure of this transaction could create a tax
benefit to the Company, and the Company would be required to pay
Cendant any tax benefits that are realized by the Company as a
result of such ruling. Any cash payments that would be made for
federal or state taxes in connection with an adverse ruling are
not expected to be significant.
Legal
Contingencies
The Company is party to various claims and legal proceedings
from time to time related to contract disputes and other
commercial, employment and tax matters. Except as disclosed
below and in Note 19, Subsequent Events, the
Company is not aware of any legal proceedings that it believes
could have, individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse
effect on its financial position, results of operations or cash
flows.
In March and April 2006, several class actions were filed
against the Company, its Chief Executive Officer and its former
Chief Financial Officer in the United States District Court for
the District of New Jersey. The plaintiffs purport to represent
a class consisting of all persons (other than the Companys
officers and Directors and their affiliates) who purchased the
Companys Common stock during certain time periods
beginning
31
PHH
CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS (Continued)
(Unaudited)
March 15, 2005 in one case and May 12, 2005 in the
other cases and ending March 1, 2006 (the
Class Period). The plaintiffs allege, among
other things, that the defendants violated Section 10(b) of
the Exchange Act and
Rule 10b-5
thereunder. Additionally, two derivative actions were filed in
the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey
against the Company, its former Chief Financial Officer and each
member of its Board of Directors. One of these derivative
actions has since been voluntarily dismissed by the plaintiffs.
The remaining derivative action alleges breaches of fiduciary
duty and related claims based on substantially the same factual
allegations as in the class action suits. See Note 19,
Subsequent Events for additional discussion of legal
contingencies.
Due to the inherent uncertainties of litigation, and because
these actions are at a preliminary stage, the Company cannot
accurately predict the ultimate outcome of these matters at this
time. The Company intends to vigorously defend against the
alleged claims in each of these matters. The ultimate resolution
of these matters could have a material adverse effect on the
Companys financial position, results of operations or cash
flows.
Loan
Servicing Portfolio
The Company sells a majority of its loans on a non-recourse
basis. The Company also provides representations and warranties
to purchasers and insurers of the loans sold. In the event of a
breach of these representations and warranties, the Company may
be required to repurchase a mortgage loan or indemnify the
purchaser, and any subsequent loss on the mortgage loan may be
borne by the Company. If there is no breach of a representation
and warranty provision, the Company has no obligation to
repurchase the loan or indemnify the investor against loss. The
Companys owned servicing portfolio represents the maximum
potential exposure related to representations and warranty
provisions.
Conforming conventional loans serviced by the Company are
securitized through Federal National Mortgage Association
(Fannie Mae) or Federal Home Loan Mortgage
Corporation (Freddie Mac) programs. Such servicing
is performed on a non-recourse basis, whereby foreclosure losses
are generally the responsibility of Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac.
The government loans serviced by the Company are generally
securitized through Government National Mortgage Association
(Ginnie Mae) programs. These government loans are
either insured against loss by the Federal Housing
Administration or partially guaranteed against loss by the
Department of Veterans Affairs. Additionally, jumbo mortgage
loans are serviced for various investors on a non-recourse basis.
While the majority of the mortgage loans serviced by the Company
were sold without recourse, the Company has a program in which
it provides credit enhancement for a limited period of time to
the purchasers of mortgage loans by retaining a portion of the
credit risk. The retained credit risk, which represents the
unpaid principal balance of the loans, was $3.7 billion as
of September 30, 2006. In addition, the outstanding balance
of loans sold with recourse by the Company was $608 million
as of September 30, 2006.
As of September 30, 2006, the Company had a liability of
$28 million, recorded in Other liabilities in the Condensed
Consolidated Balance Sheet, for probable losses related to the
Companys loan servicing portfolio.
Mortgage
Reinsurance
Through the Companys wholly owned mortgage reinsurance
subsidiary, Atrium Insurance Corporation, the Company has
entered into contracts with several primary mortgage insurance
companies to provide mortgage reinsurance on certain mortgage
loans in the Companys loan servicing portfolio. Through
these contracts, the Company is exposed to losses on mortgage
loans pooled by year of origination. Loss rates on these pools
are determined based on the unpaid principal balance of
underlying loans. The Company indemnifies the primary mortgage
insurers for loss rates that fall between a stated minimum and
maximum. In return for absorbing this loss exposure, the Company
is contractually entitled to a portion of the insurance premium
from the primary mortgage insurers. As of September 30,
2006, the Company provided such mortgage reinsurance for
approximately $18.4 billion of mortgage loans in its
servicing portfolio. As stated above, the Companys
contracts
32
PHH
CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS (Continued)
(Unaudited)
with the primary mortgage insurers limit its maximum potential
exposure to reinsurance losses, which was $715 million as
of September 30, 2006. The Company is required to hold
securities in trust related to this potential obligation, which
were included in Restricted Cash in the Condensed Consolidated
Balance Sheet as of September 30, 2006. As of
September 30, 2006, a liability of $17 million was
recorded in Other liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated
Balance Sheet for estimated losses associated with the
Companys mortgage reinsurance activities.
Loan Funding
Commitments
As of September 30, 2006, the Company had commitments to
fund mortgage loans with
agreed-upon
rates or rate protection amounting to $4.8 billion.
Additionally, as of September 30, 2006, the Company had
commitments to fund open home equity lines of credit of
$2.9 billion and construction loans of $79 million.
Forward
Delivery Commitments
Commitments to sell loans generally have fixed expiration dates
or other termination clauses and may require the payment of a
fee. The Company can settle the forward delivery commitments on
a net basis; therefore, the commitments outstanding do not
necessarily represent future cash obligations. The
Companys $3.9 billion of forward delivery commitments
as of September 30, 2006 generally will be settled within
90 days of the individual commitment date.
Indemnification
of Cendant
In connection with the Spin-Off, the Company entered into a
separation agreement with Cendant (the Separation
Agreement), pursuant to which, the Company has agreed to
indemnify Cendant for any losses (other than losses relating to
taxes, indemnification for which is provided in the Amended Tax
Sharing Agreement) that any party seeks to impose upon Cendant
or its affiliates that relate to, arise or result from:
(i) any of the Companys liabilities, including, among
other things: (a) all liabilities reflected in the
Companys pro forma balance sheet as of September 30,
2004 or that would be, or should have been, reflected in such
balance sheet, (b) all liabilities relating to the
Companys business whether before or after the date of the
Spin-Off, (c) all liabilities that relate to, or arise from
any performance guaranty of Avis Group Holdings, Inc. in
connection with indebtedness issued by Chesapeake, (d) any
liabilities relating to the Companys or its
affiliates employees, and (e) all liabilities that

There are no specific limitations on the maximum potential
amount of future payments to be made under this indemnification,
nor is the Company able to develop an estimate of the maximum
potential amount of future payments to be made under this
indemnification, if any, as the triggering events are not

Off-Balance
Sheet Arrangements and Guarantees
In the ordinary course of business, the Company enters into
numerous agreements that contain standard guarantees and
indemnities whereby the Company indemnifies another party for
breaches of representations and warranties. Such guarantees or
indemnifications are granted under various agreements, including
those governing leases of real estate, access to credit
facilities and use of derivatives and issuances of debt or
equity securities. The guarantees or indemnifications issued are
for the benefit of the buyers in sale agreements and sellers in
purchase agreements, landlords in lease contracts, financial
institutions in credit facility arrangements and derivative
contracts and underwriters in debt or equity security issuances.
While some of these guarantees extend only for the duration of
the underlying agreement, many survive the expiration of the
term of the agreement or extend into perpetuity (unless subject
to a legal statute of limitations). There are no specific
limitations on the maximum potential amount of future payments
that the Company could be required to make under these
guarantees, and the Company is unable to develop an estimate of
the maximum potential amount of future payments to be made under
these guarantees, if any, as the triggering events are not
subject to predictability. With respect to certain of the
aforementioned guarantees, such as indemnifications of landlords
against third-party claims for the use of real estate property
leased by the Company, the Company maintains insurance coverage
that mitigates any potential payments to be made.

On September 29, 2006, the Company received an extension to
file its 2005
Form 10-K
from the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE). This
extension allowed for the continued listing of its Common stock
through January 2, 2007, subject to review by the NYSE on
an ongoing basis. The Company filed its 2005
Form 10-K
with the SEC on November 22, 2006.

Stock-Based
Compensation
|
Prior to the Spin-Off, the Companys employees were awarded
stock-based compensation in the form of Cendant common shares,
stock options and RSUs. On February 1, 2005, in connection
with the Spin-Off, certain Cendant stock options and RSUs
previously granted to the Companys employees were
converted into stock options and RSUs of the Company under the
PHH Corporation 2005 Equity and Incentive Plan (the
Plan). The conversion, which was accounted for as a
modification, was based on maintaining the intrinsic value of
each employees previous Cendant grants through an
adjustment of both the number of stock options or RSUs and, in
the case of stock options, the exercise price. This computation
resulted in a change in the fair value of the stock option
awards immediately prior to the conversion compared to
immediately following the conversion, and accordingly, a
$4 million charge was recorded during the nine months ended
September 30, 2005, which was included in Spin-Off related
expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations.
The fair value of the stock options was estimated using the
Black-Scholes option valuation model using the following
pre-modification and post-modification weighted-average
assumptions:

At the modification date, 3,167,602 Cendant stock options with a
weighted-average fair value of $7.61 per option were
converted into 3,461,376 of the Companys stock options
with a weighted-average fair value of $8.11 per option.
Additionally, 1,460,720 Cendant RSUs with a fair value of
$23.55 per RSU based on the closing price of Cendants
common stock on January 31, 2005 were converted into
1,595,998 of the Companys RSUs with a fair value of $21.55
per RSU based on the opening price of the Companys Common
stock on February 1, 2005. The conversion affected 292
employees holding stock options and 348 employees holding RSUs.
Subsequent to the Spin-Off, certain Company employees were
awarded stock-based compensation in the form of RSUs and stock
options to purchase shares of the Companys Common stock
under the Plan. The stock option awards have a maximum
contractual term of ten years after the grant date.
Service-based stock awards vest solely upon the fulfillment of a
service condition (i) ratably over four years from the
grant date, (ii) four years after the grant date or
(iii) ratably in each of years four through six after the
grant date with the possibility of accelerated vesting of 25% of
the total award in each of years one through four on the
anniversary of the grant date if certain Company performance
criteria are achieved. Performance-based stock awards require
the fulfillment of a service condition and the achievement of
certain Company performance criteria and vest ratably over four
years from the grant date if both conditions are met. In
addition, all outstanding and unvested stock options and RSUs
vest immediately upon a change in control. (See Note 19,
Subsequent Events for additional information
regarding a potential change in control.) Additionally, the
Company grants RSUs to its non-employee Directors as part of
their compensation for services rendered as members of the
Companys Board of Directors. These RSUs vest immediately
when granted. The Company issues new shares of Common stock to
employees and Directors to satisfy its stock option exercise and
RSU conversion obligations. The Plan also allows awards of stock
appreciation rights, restricted stock and other stock- or
cash-based awards. RSUs granted by the Company entitle the
Companys employees to receive one share of PHH Common
stock upon the vesting of each RSU. The maximum number of shares
of PHH Common stock issuable under the Plan is 7,500,000,
including those Cendant

awards that were converted into PHH awards in connection with
the Spin-Off.
The Company generally recognizes compensation cost for
service-based stock awards on a straight-line basis over the
requisite service period. Compensation cost for
performance-based stock awards is recognized when it is probable
that the performance condition will be achieved. Since the
adoption of SFAS No. 123(R), the Company recognizes
compensation cost, net of estimated forfeitures. Prior to the
adoption of SFAS No. 123(R), the Company recognized
forfeitures in the period that the forfeitures occurred.
Stock options vested and expected to vest and RSUs expected to
be converted into shares of Common stock reflected in the tables
below summarizing stock option and RSU activity include the
awards for which achievement of performance conditions is
considered probable and exclude the awards estimated to be
forfeited.
The Company executed a Separation and Release Agreement (the
Separation and Release Agreement) with its former
Chief Financial Officer in September 2006. Under the terms of
the Separation and Release Agreement, the former Chief Financial
Officer retained the rights to his previously issued stock-based
awards under their original terms through October 2009. This
represented a modification of the awards and resulted in
incremental compensation cost of $1 million, which was
recognized in Salaries and related expenses during both the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2006.
The following tables summarize stock option activity during the
nine months ended September 30, 2006:

The Companys policy is to grant options with exercise
prices at the then-current fair market value of the
Companys shares of Common stock. In 2005, in accordance
with its policy at the time, the Company calculated the fair
market value of its shares of Common stock for purposes of
determining exercise prices for options granted by averaging the
opening and closing share price for the Companys Common
stock for the day prior to the grant. As a result, all of the
options granted by the Company during the eleven months ended
December 31, 2005 were granted at exercise prices that were
less than the market price of the stock on the grant date. In
2006, the Company changed its policy for calculating the fair
market value for purposes of determining exercise prices for
options granted such that the fair market value is the closing
share price for the Companys Common stock on the date of
grant.
The weighted-average grant-date fair value per stock option for
awards granted during both the three and nine months ended
September 30, 2006 was $11.81. No stock options were
granted during the three months ended September 30, 2005.
The weighted-average grant-date fair value per stock option for
awards granted during the nine months ended September 30,
2005 was $7.84. The weighted-average grant-date fair value of
stock options was estimated using the Black-Scholes option
valuation model with the following assumptions:

For the stock options modified in conjunction with the
Separation and Release Agreement, the fair value at the
modification date was used to calculate the weighted-average
grant-date fair value. |
The Company estimated the expected life of the stock options
based on their vesting and contractual terms. The risk-free
interest rate reflected the yield on zero-coupon Treasury
securities with a term approximating the expected life of the
stock options. Due to the limited trading history of the
Companys Common stock since the Spin-Off, the expected
volatility was based on the historical volatility of the
Companys peer groups

For RSUs converted from Cendant RSUs to the Companys RSUs
in connection with the Spin-Off, the fair value used to
calculate the weighted-average grant-date fair value presented
above is $21.55 per RSU, which was the opening price of the
Companys Common stock on February 1, 2005. The
original weighted-average grant-date fair value of the Cendant
RSUs that were converted to the Companys RSUs, after
applying the conversion ratio, was $18.88 per RSU. The
weighted-average grant-date fair value per RSU for awards
granted during the three months ended September 30, 2006
was $27.50. The weighted-average grant-date fair value per RSU
for awards granted during the three and nine months ended
September 30, 2005 was $27.46 and $25.49, respectively. No
RSUs were converted into shares of Common stock during the three
months ended September 30, 2006. The total fair value of
RSUs converted into shares of Common stock during the three
months ended September 30, 2005 was insignificant. The
total fair value of RSUs converted into shares of Common stock
during the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005
was $1 million and $6 million, respectively.

The Company conducts its operations through three business
segments: Mortgage Production, Mortgage Servicing and Fleet
Management Services. Certain income and expenses not allocated
to the three reportable segments and intersegment eliminations
are reported under the heading Other.
In the fourth quarter of 2005, the Company changed the
composition of its reportable business segments by separating
the business that was formerly called the Mortgage Services
segment into two segmentsthe Mortgage Production segment
and the Mortgage Servicing segment. All prior period segment
information has been revised for comparability to reflect the
Companys new reportable segments presentation.
Due to the commencement of operations of the Mortgage Venture in
the fourth quarter of 2005, the Companys management began
evaluating the operating results of each of its reportable
segments based upon Net revenues and segment profit or loss,
which is presented as the income or loss from continuing
operations before income tax provisions and after Minority
interest in income of consolidated entities, net of income
taxes. The Mortgage Production segment profit or loss excludes
Realogys minority interest in the profits and losses of
the Mortgage Venture. Prior to the commencement of the Mortgage
Venture operations, PHH Mortgage was party to marketing
agreements with Realogys (formerly Cendants) owned
real estate brokerage business, NRT and its owned relocation
business, Cartus, (formerly known as Cendant Mobility Services
Corporation), wherein PHH Mortgage paid fees for services
provided. These marketing agreements terminated when the
Mortgage Venture commenced operations. The provisions of a
strategic relationship agreement and marketing agreements
entered into in connection with the Spin-Off govern the manner
in which the Mortgage Venture and PHH Mortgage, respectively,
are recommended by NRT, Cartus and Realogys (formerly
Cendants) owned settlement services business,
Title Resource Group LLC (TRG) (formerly known
as Cendant Settlement Services Group, Inc.).

Prior
Period Adjustments
|
As previously disclosed in Note 2, Prior Period
Adjustments in the Notes to Consolidated Financial
Statements included in the Companys 2005
Form 10-K,
during the preparation of the Consolidated Financial Statements
for the year ended December 31, 2005, the Company
determined that it was necessary to restate
41
PHH
CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS (Continued)
(Unaudited)
previously issued financial statements to record adjustments for
corrections of errors resulting from various accounting matters.
Certain of these adjustments for corrections of errors restated
the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as of
September 30, 2005 and for the three and nine months ended
September 30, 2005 and related to the following:
1. Goodwill and other intangible assets:
The Company discovered errors in the accounting for the
allocation of the purchase price, and therefore, goodwill and
other intangible assets resulting from its 2001 acquisition of
Avis Group Holdings, Inc. The goodwill impairment charge
originally recorded during the nine months ended
September 30, 2005 of $239 million ($236 million
after tax) was reversed in the restatement.
2. Exclusion of reinsurance premiums from capitalized MSRs:
Prior to the second quarter of 2003, the Company inappropriately
capitalized the estimated future cash flows related to mortgage
reinsurance premiums as part of its MSRs. The Company ceased
capitalizing new mortgage reinsurance premiums in the second
quarter of 2003 and the balance of previously capitalized
mortgage reinsurance premiums was fully amortized as of the end
of 2005. The restatement adjustments for the three and nine
months ended September 30, 2005 eliminated the related
amortization. The effect of these restatement adjustments on the
three months ended September 30, 2005 was insignificant.
These restatement adjustments increased income from continuing
operations before income taxes during the nine months ended
September 30, 2005 by $2 million ($1 million
after tax).
3. Accounting for derivatives and hedging activities:
The Companys reevaluation of the application of
SFAS No. 133 hedge accounting to certain financial
instruments used to hedge interest rate risk resulted in the
disallowance of hedge accounting previously used for these
hedging arrangements due to inadequate contemporaneous
documentation and errors in applying certain other requirements
of SFAS No. 133. The effect on both the three and nine
months ended September 30, 2005 was to increase income from
continuing operations before income taxes by $2 million
($1 million after tax).
4. Recognition of motor company monies and depreciation
methodologies:
The restatement corrects the timing of recognition of motor
company monies that impact the basis in the Companys
leased assets and therefore Depreciation on operating leases.
The effect on the three months ended September 30, 2005 was
insignificant. The effect on the nine months ended
September 30, 2005 was to increase income from continuing
operations before income taxes by $2 million
($2 million after tax).
5. Other miscellaneous:
Adjustments were made to recognize the effects of other
miscellaneous errors corrected as part of the restatement. The
effect on the three months ended September 30, 2005 was to
increase income from continuing operations before income taxes
by $3 million ($1 million after tax). The effect on
the nine months ended September 30, 2005 was insignificant.
6. STARS income tax liability:
The Company previously recorded an income tax expense during the
nine months ended September 30, 2005 associated with the
Spin-Off relating to a tax liability the Company incurred
associated with its distribution of STARS to Cendant in 2002.
The restatement corrects this accounting treatment by recording
the income tax
42
PHH
CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS (Continued)
(Unaudited)
liability in 2002 as an equity adjustment associated with the
distribution of STARS to Cendant and by reversing the income tax
expense originally recorded during the nine months ended
September 30, 2005 of $24 million.
In addition, certain other adjustments were made which have no
net income or equity impact, but restate the classification of
prior period amounts. These reclassifications included in the
Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements principally relate
to the items set forth below:
1. Reclassification of Depreciation on operating leases
from a contra revenue account to an expense account:
In previous periods, Depreciation on operating leases was
reported as a contra revenue account in the determination of Net
revenues. As a result of the restatement adjustments,
Depreciation on operating leases is reported as a component of
Total expenses rather than as a component of Net revenues and
certain items previously reported in Depreciation on operating
leases were reclassified to various other revenue and expense
line items.
2. Reclassification of dealership cost of goods sold from
Other income to Other operating expenses:
In previous periods, both the revenue generated by the
Companys dealership businesses and the associated cost of
goods sold were included in Other income, a component of Net
revenues. As a result of the restatement adjustments, dealership
cost of goods sold was reclassified to Other operating expenses.
3. Presentation of cash flow from discontinued operations:
The Company revised its Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash
Flows to separately disclose the operating, investing and
financing cash flows and the effect of exchange rate changes
attributable to its discontinued operations.
4. Presentation of cash flow activity related to MSRs:
The Company revised the presentation in its Condensed
Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows to include the
capitalization of originated MSRs in cash flows from operating
activities and purchases of MSRs in cash flows from investing
activities.
5. Other miscellaneous reclassifications:
Certain reclassifications have been made to prior period amounts
to conform to the current period presentation.
The following tables set forth the effects of the restatement
adjustments on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of
Operations for the three and nine months ended
September 30, 2005. The Companys restatement of its
financial statements for the three months ended
September 30, 2005 resulted in increases to Net income,
basic earnings per share and diluted earnings per share of
$2 million, $0.05 and $0.05, respectively. For the nine
months ended September 30, 2005, the Companys
restatement of its financial statements resulted in increases to
Net income, basic earnings per share and diluted earnings per
share of $264 million, $4.99 and $4.97, respectively.

The Companys Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash
Flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 was also
restated. The restatement adjustments (decreased) increased cash
flows from operating, investing and financing activities of
continuing operations by $(346) million, $310 million
and $4 million, respectively, for the nine months ended
September 30, 2005.

Spin-Off
from Cendant
|
During the nine months ended September 30, 2005, the
Company recognized Spin-Off related expenses of
$41 million, consisting of a charge of $37 million
resulting from the prepayment of debt described more fully below
and a charge of $4 million associated with the conversion
of certain Cendant stock options held by PHH employees to PHH
stock options described in Note 14, Stock-Based
Compensation.
On February 9, 2005, the Company prepaid $443 million
aggregate principal amount of outstanding privately placed
senior notes in cash at an aggregate prepayment price of
$497 million, including accrued and unpaid interest. The
prepayment was made to avoid any potential debt covenant
compliance issues arising from the distributions made prior to
the Spin-Off and the related reduction in the Companys
Stockholders equity. The prepayment price included an
aggregate make-whole amount of $44 million. During the nine
months ended September 30, 2005, the Company recorded a net
charge of $37 million in connection with this prepayment of
debt, which consisted of the $44 million make-whole payment
and a write-off of unamortized deferred financing costs of
$1 million, partially offset by net interest rate swap
gains of $8 million.

On October 30, 2006, the Company further amended the
Mortgage Repurchase Facility by executing the Fifth Amended and
Restated Master Repurchase Agreement (the Repurchase
Agreement) and the Servicing Agreement (together with the
Repurchase Agreement, the Amended Repurchase
Agreements). The Amended Repurchase Agreements increased
the capacity of the Mortgage Repurchase Facility from
$500 million to $750 million, expanded the eligibility
of underlying mortgage loan collateral and modified certain
other covenants and terms. The Mortgage Repurchase Facility as
amended by the Amended Repurchase Agreements expires on
October 29, 2007 and is renewable on an annual basis,
subject to agreement by the parties. The assets collateralizing
this facility are not available to pay the Companys
general obligations.
On December 1, 2006, Chesapeake amended the agreement
governing its
Series 2006-2
notes to extend the Scheduled Expiry Date to November 30,
2007.

PHH
CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL

(Unaudited)
On December 1, 2006, the Bishops Gate Liquidity
Agreement was amended to extend its expiration date to
November 30, 2007 and reduce the maximum committed
borrowings allowed under the agreement from $1.5 billion to
$1.0 billion.
On December 21, 2006, the maturity date of the Mortgage
Ventures $200 million secured line of credit was
extended to October 5, 2007.
On January 22, 2007, Standard & Poors
removed the Companys debt ratings from CreditWatch
Negative and downgraded its rating on the Companys senior
unsecured long-term debt to BBB-. As a result, the fees and
interest rates on borrowings under the Companys Amended
Credit Facility, Supplemental Credit Facility and Tender Support
Facility increased pursuant to the terms of each agreement.
After the downgrade, borrowings under the Companys Amended
Credit Facility and Supplemental Credit Facility bore interest
at LIBOR plus a margin of 47.5 bps. In addition, the
Amended Credit Facilitys and the Supplemental Credit
Facilitys per annum utilization and facility fees were
increased to 12.5 bps and 15 bps, respectively. In the
event that both of the Companys second highest and lowest
credit ratings are downgraded in the future, the margin over
LIBOR would become 70 bps, the utilization fee would remain
12.5 bps and the facility fee would become 17.5 bps. After
the downgrade, borrowings under the Tender Support Facility bore
interest at LIBOR plus a margin of 100 bps and the per annum
commitment fee was increased to 17.5 bps. In the event that
both of the Moodys Investors Service and
Standard & Poors ratings are downgraded in the
future, the margin over LIBOR would become 150 bps and the
per annum commitment fee would become 22.5 bps.
On February 22, 2007, the Supplemental Credit Facility and
the Tender Support Facility were amended to extend their
expiration dates to December 15, 2007, reduce total
commitments to $200 million and $415 million,
respectively, and modify the interest rates paid on outstanding
borrowings. Pricing under these facilities is based upon the
Companys senior unsecured long-term debt ratings assigned
by Moodys Investors Service and Standard &
Poors. If those ratings are not equivalent to each other,
the higher credit rating assigned by them determines pricing
under the agreements, unless there is more than one rating level
difference between the two ratings, in which case the rating one
level below the higher rating is applied. As a result of these
amendments, borrowings under the Supplemental Credit Facility
and the Tender Support Facility bear interest at LIBOR plus a
margin of 82.5 bps and 100 bps, respectively. The
Supplemental Credit Facility also has a per annum facility fee
of 17.5 bps. The amendments eliminated the per annum
utilization fee under the Supplemental Credit Facility and the
per annum commitment fee under the Tender Support Facility. In
the event that both of the Moodys Investors Service and
Standard & Poors ratings are downgraded in the
future, the margin over LIBOR and the per annum facility fee
under the Supplemental Credit Facility would become
127.5 bps and 22.5 bps, respectively, and the margin
over LIBOR under the Tender Support Facility would become
150 bps.
On March 6, 2007, Chesapeake amended the agreement
governing the
Series 2006-1
notes to extend the Scheduled Expiry Date to March 4, 2008
and increase the maximum borrowings allowed under the agreement
from $2.7 billion to $2.9 billion.
On March 15, 2007, the Company entered into a definitive
agreement (the Merger Agreement) with General
Electric Capital Corporation (GE) and its wholly
owned subsidiary, Jade Merger Sub, Inc. to be acquired (the
Merger). In conjunction with the Merger, GE has
entered into an agreement to sell the mortgage operations of the
Company to an affiliate of The Blackstone Group
(Blackstone), a global private investment and
advisory firm. On March 14, 2007, prior to the execution of
the Merger Agreement, the Company entered into an amendment to
the Rights Agreement (the Rights Agreement), dated
as of January 28, 2005, between the Company and The Bank of
New York. The amendment revises certain terms of the Rights
Agreement to render it inapplicable to the Merger and the other
transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement. The Merger is
subject to approval by the Companys stockholders,
antitrust, state licensing and other regulatory approvals, as
well as various other closing conditions. Under the terms of the
Merger Agreement, at closing, the Companys stockholders
will receive $31.50 per share in cash and shares of the
Companys Common stock will no longer be listed on the NYSE.

Following the announcement of the Merger in March 2007, two
class actions were filed against the Company and each member of
its Board of Directors in the Circuit Court for Baltimore
County, Maryland; one of these actions also named GE and
Blackstone. The plaintiffs purport to represent a class
consisting of all persons (other than the Companys
officers and Directors and their affiliates) holding the
Companys Common stock. In support of their request for
injunctive and other relief, the plaintiffs allege that the
members of the Board of Directors breached their fiduciary
duties by failing to maximize stockholder value in approving the
Merger Agreement.
On March 15, 2007 following the announcement of the Merger,
the Companys senior unsecured long-term debt ratings were
placed under review for upgrade by Moodys Investor
Services, on CreditWatch with positive implications by
Standard & Poors and on Rating Watch Positive by
Fitch Ratings. There can be no assurance that the ratings and
ratings outlooks on the Companys senior unsecured
long-term debt and other debt will remain at these levels.
On March 19, 2007, the Company received notice from the
NYSE that it would be subject to the procedures specified in
Section 802.01E, SEC Annual Report Timely Filing
Criteria, of the NYSEs Listed Company Manual as a
result of not meeting the deadline for filing its Annual Report
on
Form 10-K
for the year ended December 31, 2006 (the 2006
Form 10-K).
Section 802.01E of the NYSEs Listed Company Manual
provides, among other things, that the NYSE will monitor the
Company and the filing status of its 2006
Form 10-K.
If the Company has not filed its 2006
Form 10-K
within six months of the filing due date of the 2006
Form 10-K,
the NYSE may, in its sole discretion, allow the Companys
securities to be traded for up to an additional six-month
trading period or, if the NYSE determines that such additional
trading period is not appropriate, it will commence suspension
and delisting procedures. In addition, the Company concluded
that it did not satisfy the requirements of Section 203.01
of the NYSE Listed Company Manual as a result of the delay in
filing its 2006
Form 10-K.
As discussed in Note 9, Debt and Borrowing
Arrangements, under many of the Companys Financing
Agreements, the Company is required to provide consolidated
and/or
subsidiary-level audited annual financial statements, unaudited
quarterly financial statements and related documents. The delay
in completing the 2005 audited financial statements, the
restatement of financial results for periods prior to the
quarter ended December 31, 2005 and the delay in completing
the unaudited quarterly financial statements for 2006 created
the potential for breaches under certain of the Financing
Agreements for failure to deliver the financial statements
and/or
documents by specified deadlines, as well as potential breaches
of other covenants. Waivers were obtained to extend certain
deadlines as discussed in Note 9, Debt and Borrowing
Arrangements. During the fourth quarter of 2006, the
Company obtained additional waivers under the Amended Credit
Facility, the Supplemental Credit Facility, the Tender Support
Facility, the Amended Repurchase Agreements, the financing
agreements for Chesapeake and Bishops Gate and other
agreements which waive certain potential breaches of covenants
under those instruments and extend the deadlines (the
Extended Deadlines) for the delivery of its
financial statements and related documents to the various
lenders under those instruments. With respect to the delivery of
the Companys quarterly financial statements for the
quarters ended March 31, 2006 and June 30, 2006, the
Extended Deadline was March 30, 2007. The Extended Deadline
for the delivery of the Companys quarterly financial
statements for the quarter ended September 30, 2006 is
April 30, 2007. The Extended Deadline for the delivery of
the Companys financial statements for the year ended
December 31, 2006 and the quarter ended March 31, 2007
is June 29, 2007. Due to the existence of material
weaknesses in the Companys internal control over financial
reporting and delays in completing the 2005 audited financial
statements and the 2006 unaudited quarterly financial
statements, the Company has not yet delivered its financial
statements for the year ended December 31, 2006 and it
remains uncertain whether the Company will be able to deliver
its 2007 quarterly financial statements under the terms of the
MTN Indenture, within the deadlines prescribed in its Financing
Agreements or within the deadlines prescribed by the SEC. If the
Company is not able to deliver its financial statements by the
deadlines, it intends to negotiate with the lenders and trustees
to the Financing Agreements to extend the existing waivers.
48
PHH
CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS (Continued)
(Unaudited)
If the Company is unable to obtain sufficient extensions and
financial statements are not delivered timely, the lenders have
the right to demand payment of amounts due under the Financing
Agreements either immediately or after a specified grace period.
In addition, because of cross-default provisions, amounts owed
under other borrowing arrangements may become due or, in the
case of asset-backed debt arrangements, new borrowings may be
precluded. Since repayments are required on asset-backed debt
arrangements as cash inflows are received relating to the
securitized assets, new borrowings are necessary for the Company
to continue normal operations. Therefore, unless the Company can
obtain any necessary further extensions or negotiate alternative
borrowing arrangements, the uncertainty about the Companys
ability to meet its financial statement delivery requirements
raises substantial doubt about the Companys ability to
continue as a going concern.
Under certain of the Financing Agreements, the lenders or
trustees have the right to notify the Company if they believe it
has breached a covenant under the operative documents and may
declare an event of default. If one or more notices of default
were to be given, the Company believes it would have various
periods in which to cure such events of default. If it does not
cure the events of default or obtain necessary waivers within
the required time periods or certain extended time periods, the
maturity of some of its debt could be accelerated and its
ability to incur additional indebtedness could be restricted. In
addition, events of default or acceleration under certain of the
Companys Financing Agreements would trigger cross-default
provisions under certain of its other Financing Agreements. The
Company has not yet delivered its financial statements for the
year ended December 31, 2006 to the MTN Indenture Trustee,
which were required to be delivered no later than March 16,
2007 under the MTN Indenture. The MTN Indenture Trustee could
provide the Company with a notice of default for its failure to
deliver these financial statements. In the event that the
Company receives such notice, it would have 90 days from
receipt to cure this default or to seek additional waivers of
the financial statement delivery requirements under the MTN
Indenture. No assurances can be given that the Company will be
able to deliver the required financial statements within the
cure period or that additional waivers will be obtained.
The Company also obtained certain waivers and may need to seek
additional waivers extending the date for the delivery of the
financial statements of its subsidiaries and other documents
related to such financial statements to certain regulators,
investors in mortgage loans and other third parties in order to
satisfy state mortgage licensing regulations and certain
contractual requirements. The Company will continue to seek
similar waivers as may be necessary in the future.
There can be no assurance that any additional waivers will be
received on a timely basis, if at all, or that any waivers
obtained, including the waivers the Company has already
obtained, will extend for a sufficient period of time to avoid
an acceleration event, an event of default or other restrictions
on its business operations. The failure to obtain such waivers
could have a material and adverse effect on the Companys
business, liquidity and financial condition.

Overview
We are a leading outsource provider of mortgage and fleet
management services. We conduct our business through three
operating segments, a Mortgage Production segment, a Mortgage
Servicing segment and a Fleet Management Services segment. Our
Mortgage Production segment originates, purchases and sells
mortgage loans through PHH Mortgage Corporation and its
subsidiaries (collectively, PHH Mortgage), which
includes PHH Home Loans, LLC (PHH Home Loans or the
Mortgage Venture). PHH Home Loans is a mortgage
venture that we maintain with Realogy Corporation
(Realogy) which began operations in October 2005.
Our Mortgage Production segment generated 16% of our Net
revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2006. Our
Mortgage Servicing segment services mortgage loans that either
PHH Mortgage or PHH Home Loans originates. Our Mortgage
Servicing segment also purchases mortgage servicing rights
(MSRs) and acts as a subservicer for certain clients
that own the underlying MSRs. Our Mortgage Servicing segment
generated 5% of our Net revenues for the nine months ended
September 30, 2006. Our Fleet Management Services segment
provides commercial fleet management services to corporate
clients and government agencies throughout the United States and
Canada through PHH Vehicle Management Services Group LLC
(PHH Arval). Our Fleet Management Services segment
generated 79% of our Net revenues for the nine months ended
September 30, 2006.
As of December 31, 2004, we were a wholly owned subsidiary
of Cendant that provided homeowners with mortgages, serviced
mortgage loans, facilitated employee relocations and provided
vehicle fleet management and fuel card services to commercial
clients. On February 1, 2005, we began operating as an
independent, publicly traded company pursuant to a spin-off from
Cendant (the Spin-Off). See Note 17,
Spin-Off from Cendant in the Notes to Condensed
Consolidated Financial Statements included in this
Form 10-Q
for a discussion of the Spin-Off.
Prior to the Spin-Off and subsequent to December 31, 2004,
we underwent an internal reorganization whereby we distributed
our former relocation and fuel card businesses to Cendant, and
Cendant contributed its former appraisal business, Speedy Title
and Appraisal Review Services LLC (STARS), to us.
STARS was previously our wholly owned subsidiary until it was
distributed, in the form of a dividend, to a wholly owned
subsidiary of Cendant not within our ownership structure on
December 31, 2002. Cendant then owned STARS through its
subsidiaries outside of our ownership structure from
December 31, 2002 until it contributed STARS to us as part
of the internal reorganization discussed above.
50
Pursuant to Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
(SFAS) No. 141, Business
Combinations, Cendants contribution of STARS to us
was accounted for as a transfer of net assets between entities
under common control and, therefore, the financial position and
results of operations for STARS are included in all periods
presented. Pursuant to SFAS No. 144, Accounting
for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, the
financial position and results of operations of our former
relocation and fuel card businesses have been segregated and
reported as discontinued operations for all periods presented
(see Note 18, Discontinued Operations in the
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in
this
Form 10-Q
for more information).
In connection with the Spin-Off, we entered into several
agreements and arrangements with Cendant and its former real
estate services division, Realogy, that we expect to continue to
be material to our business going forward. For a discussion of
these agreements and arrangements, see Item 1.
BusinessArrangements with Cendant and
Arrangements with Realogy in our 2005
Form 10-K.
Cendant completed the spin-off of its real estate services
division (the Realogy Spin-Off) effective
July 31, 2006. The structure and operation of the Mortgage
Venture was not impacted by the Realogy Spin-Off.
We, through our subsidiary, PHH Broker Partner Corporation
(PHH Broker Partner), and Realogy, through its
subsidiary, Realogy Services Venture Partner Inc. (Realogy
Venture Partner) (formerly known as Cendant Real Estate
Services Venture Partner, Inc.), formed the Mortgage Venture.
The Mortgage Venture originates and sells mortgage loans
primarily sourced through Realogys owned real estate
brokerage business, NRT Incorporated (NRT), its
owned relocation business, Cartus Corporation
(Cartus) (formerly known as Cendant Mobility
Services Corporation), and its owned settlement services
business, Title Resource Group LLC (TRG) (formerly
known as Cendant Settlement Services Group, Inc.). All mortgage
loans originated by the Mortgage Venture are sold to PHH
Mortgage or unaffiliated third-party investors on a
servicing-released basis. The Mortgage Venture does not hold any
mortgage loans for investment purposes or retain MSRs for any
loans it originates.
We contributed assets and transferred employees that have
historically supported originations from NRT and Cartus to the
Mortgage Venture in October 2005. The Mortgage Venture is
principally governed by the terms of the operating agreement of
the Mortgage Venture between PHH Broker Partner and Realogy
Venture Partner (as amended, the Mortgage Venture
Operating Agreement) and a strategic relationship
agreement whereby Realogy and we have agreed on non-competition,
indemnification and exclusivity arrangements (the
Strategic Relationship Agreement). See
Item 1. BusinessArrangements with
RealogyMortgage Venture Between Realogy and PHH and
Strategic Relationship Agreement in our 2005
Form 10-K
for a description of the terms of the Mortgage Venture Operating
Agreement and the Strategic Relationship Agreement. The Mortgage
Venture Operating Agreement has a
50-year
term, subject to earlier termination, under certain
circumstances, including after the twelfth year, upon a two-year
notice, or non-renewal by us after 25 years subject to the
delivery of notice. In the event that we do not deliver a
non-renewal notice after the 25th year, the Mortgage
Venture Operating Agreement will be renewed for an additional
25-year
term. The provisions of the Strategic Relationship Agreement
govern the manner in which the Mortgage Venture is recommended
by NRT, Cartus and TRG as the exclusive recommended provider of
mortgage loans to (i) the independent sales associates
affiliated with Realogy Services Group LLC (formerly known as
Cendant Real Estate Services Group, LLC) and Realogy
Venture Partner (together with their subsidiaries, the
Realogy Entities) (excluding the independent sales
associates of any brokers associated with Realogys
franchised brokerages (Realogy Franchisees) acting
in such capacity), (ii) all customers of Realogy Entities
(excluding Realogy Franchisees or any employees or independent
sales associate thereof acting in such capacity) and
(iii) the
U.S.-based
employees of Cendant. See Item 1.
BusinessArrangements with RealogyMortgage Venture
Between Realogy and PHH and Strategic
Relationship Agreement in our 2005
Form 10-K.
We own 50.1% of the Mortgage Venture through PHH Broker Partner
and Realogy owns the remaining 49.9% through Realogy Venture
Partner.
The Mortgage Venture is consolidated within our Condensed
Consolidated Financial Statements, and Realogy Venture
Partners interest in the Mortgage Venture is reflected in
our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as a minority
interest. Subject to certain regulatory and financial covenant
requirements, net income generated by the Mortgage Venture is
distributed quarterly to its members pro rata based upon their
respective ownership interests. The Mortgage Venture may also
require additional capital contributions from us and Realogy
51
under the terms of the Mortgage Venture Operating Agreement if
it is required to meet minimum regulatory capital and reserve
requirements imposed by any governmental authority or any
creditor of the Mortgage Venture or its subsidiaries.
In the fourth quarter of 2005, we changed the composition of our
reportable business segments by separating the business that was
formerly called the Mortgage Services segment into two
segmentsthe Mortgage Production segment and the Mortgage
Servicing segment. All prior period segment information has been
restated to reflect our three reportable segments.
Because our business has changed substantially due to the
internal reorganization in connection with the Spin-Off, and we
now conduct our business as an independent, publicly traded
company, our historical financial information does not reflect
what our results of operations, financial position or cash flows
would have been had we been an independent, publicly traded
company during all of the periods presented. Therefore, the
historical financial information for such periods is not
indicative of what our results of operations, financial position
or cash flows will be in the future.
During 2006, we devoted substantial internal and external
resources to the completion of our 2005
Form 10-K
and related matters. As a result of these efforts, along with
efforts to complete our assessment of internal controls over
financial reporting as of December 31, 2005, as required by
Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, we incurred
incremental fees and expenses for additional auditor services,
financial and other consulting services, legal services and
liquidity waivers of approximately $44 million through
December 31, 2006. Of this $44 million, we recorded
$14 million and $18 million in Other operating
expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations
for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006,
respectively. While we do not expect fees and expenses relating
to the preparation of our financial results for future periods
to remain at this level, these fees and expenses will remain
significantly higher than historical fees and expenses for the
fourth quarter of 2006, and we expect them to remain
significantly higher than historical fees and expenses in 2007.
On March 15, 2007, we entered into a definitive agreement
(the Merger Agreement) with General Electric Capital
Corporation (GE) and its wholly owned subsidiary,
Jade Merger Sub, Inc. to be acquired (the Merger).
In conjunction with the Merger, GE has entered into an agreement
to sell our mortgage operations to an affiliate of The
Blackstone Group (Blackstone), a global private
investment and advisory firm. The Merger is subject to approval
by our stockholders, antitrust, state licensing and other
regulatory approvals, as well as various other closing
conditions. Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, at closing,
our stockholders will receive $31.50 per share in cash and
shares of our Common stock will no longer be listed on the New
York Stock Exchange (NYSE).
Mortgage
Industry Trends
The aggregate demand for mortgage loans in the U.S. is a
primary driver of the Mortgage Production and Mortgage Servicing
segments operating results. The demand for mortgage loans
is affected by external factors including prevailing mortgage
rates and the strength of the U.S. housing market. The
Federal National Mortgage Associations (Fannie
Maes) Economic and Mortgage Market Developments
estimates that industry originations during 2006 were $2.5
trillion, a 16% decline from 2005. Lower origination volume,
ongoing pricing pressures and a flat yield curve have negatively
impacted the results of operations of our Mortgage Production
and Mortgage Servicing segments for the remainder of 2006. As of
January 2007, Economic and Mortgage Market Developments
forecasted a decline in industry originations during 2007 of
approximately 7% from estimated 2006 levels, due to an 11%
expected decline in purchase originations and a 1% expected
decline in refinance originations.
Volatility in interest rates may have a significant impact on
our Mortgage Production and Mortgage Servicing segments,
including a negative impact on origination volumes and the value
of our MSRs and related hedges. Volatility in interest rates may
also result in unexpected changes in the shape or slope of the
yield curve, which is a key factor in our MSR valuation model
and the effectiveness of our hedging strategy. Furthermore,
recent developments in the industry could result in more
restrictive credit standards that may negatively impact the
demand for housing and origination volumes for the mortgage
industry. As a result of these factors, we expect that the
mortgage industry will become increasingly competitive in 2007
as lower origination volumes put pressure on
52
production margins and ultimately result in further industry
consolidation. We intend to take advantage of this environment
by leveraging our existing mortgage origination services
platform to enter into new outsourcing relationships as more
companies determine that it is no longer economically feasible
to compete in the industry, however, there can be no assurance
that we will be successful in this effort whether as a result of
the delays in the availability of our financial statements, the
Merger or otherwise. During the year ended December 31,
2006, we sought to reduce costs in our Mortgage Production and
Mortgage Servicing segments to better align our resources and
expenses with anticipated mortgage origination volumes. We
expect that these cost-reduction initiatives will favorably
impact 2007 pre-tax results by approximately $40 million.
Fleet
Market Trends
The market size for the U.S. commercial fleet management
services market has displayed little or no growth over the last
several years as reported by the Automotive Fleet 2005, 2004
and 2003 Fact Books. Growth in our Fleet Management Services
segment is driven principally by increased fee-based services,
increased market share in the large fleet market (greater than
500 units) and increased service provided to the national
fleet market (75 to 500 units), which growth we anticipate
will be negatively impacted during 2007 by the delays in the
availability of our financial statements and the Merger.

During the third quarter of 2006, our Net revenues decreased by
$115 million (18%) compared to the third quarter of 2005,
due to decreases of $104 million and $44 million in
our Mortgage Production and Mortgage Servicing segments,
respectively, that were partially offset by a $33 million
increase in our Fleet Management Services segment. Our (Loss)
income from continuing operations before income taxes and
minority interest unfavorably changed by $114 million
during the third quarter of 2006 compared to the third quarter
of 2005 due to unfavorable changes of $86 million and
$34 million in our Mortgage Production and Mortgage
Servicing segments, respectively, that were partially offset by
a favorable change of $6 million in our Fleet Management
Services segment.
We record our interim tax provisions by applying a projected
full-year effective income tax rate to our quarterly pre-tax
income or loss for results that we deem to be reliably estimable
in accordance with FASB Interpretation No. 18,
Accounting for Income Taxes in Interim Periods
(FIN 18). Certain results dependent on fair
value adjustments of our Mortgage Production and Mortgage
Servicing segments are considered not to be reliably estimable
and therefore we record discrete
year-to-date
income tax provisions on those results.
During the third quarter of 2006, the income tax benefit was
$25 million and was significantly impacted by a
$13 million decrease in income tax contingency reserves and
a $2 million increase in valuation allowances for state net
operating losses (NOLs) generated during the third
quarter of 2006 for which we believe it is more likely than not
that the NOLs will not be realized. In addition, we recorded a
state income tax benefit of $5 million. Due to our
year-to-date
and projected full-year mix of income and loss from our
operations by entity
53
and state income tax jurisdiction in 2006, there was a
significant change in the 2006 state income tax effective
rate in comparison to 2005.
During the third quarter of 2005, the Provision for income taxes
was $35 million.
Segment
Results
Discussed below are the results of operations for each of our
reportable segments. Certain income and expenses not allocated
to our reportable segments and intersegment eliminations are
reported under the heading Other. Due to the commencement of
operations of the Mortgage Venture in the fourth quarter of
2005, our management began evaluating the operating results of
each of our reportable segments based upon Net revenues and
segment profit or loss, which is presented as the income or loss
from continuing operations before income tax provisions and
after Minority interest in income of consolidated entities, net
of income taxes. The Mortgage Production segment profit or loss
excludes Realogys minority interest in the profits and
losses of the Mortgage Venture. Prior to the commencement of the
Mortgage Venture operations, PHH Mortgage was party to marketing
agreements with NRT and Cartus, wherein PHH Mortgage paid fees
for services provided. These marketing agreements terminated
when the Mortgage Venture commenced operations. The provisions
of the Strategic Relationship Agreement and the marketing
agreement thereafter began to govern the manner in which the
Mortgage Venture and PHH Mortgage, respectively, are recommended
by NRT, Cartus and TRG.
Our segment results were as follows:

Mortgage
Production Segment
Net revenues decreased by $104 million (58%) in the third
quarter of 2006 compared to the third quarter of 2005. As
discussed in greater detail below, Net revenues were impacted by
decreases of $72 million in Gain on sale of mortgage loans,
net, $19 million in Mortgage fees, $12 million in
Mortgage net finance income and $1 million in Other income.
Segment (loss) profit unfavorably changed by $87 million in
the third quarter of 2006 compared to the third quarter of 2005
driven by the $104 million decrease in Net revenues, which
was partially offset by an $18 million (13%) decrease in
Total expenses. In addition, during the third quarter of 2006,
the Mortgage Production segment recognized a $1 million
Minority interest in income of consolidated entities, net of
income taxes. The $18 million
54
reduction in Total expenses was due to a $23 million
decrease in Salaries and related expenses that was partially
offset by $2 million increases in both Occupancy and other
office expenses and Other operating expenses and a
$1 million increase in Other depreciation and amortization.
The following tables present a summary of our financial results
and key related drivers for the Mortgage Production segment, and
are followed by a discussion of each of the key components of
Net revenues and Total expenses:

Mortgage
Fees
Mortgage fees consist primarily of fees collected on loans
originated for others (including brokered loans and loans
originated through our financial institutions channel), fees on
cancelled loans, and appraisal and other income generated by our
appraisal services business. Mortgage fees collected on loans
originated through our financial institutions channel are
recorded in Mortgage fees when the financial institution retains
the underlying loan. Loans purchased from financial institutions
are included in loans closed to be sold while loans retained by
financial institutions are included in fee-based closings.
Fee income on loans closed to be sold is deferred until the
loans are sold and recognized in Gain on sale of mortgage loans,
net in accordance with SFAS No. 91, Accounting
for Nonrefundable Fees and Costs Associated with Originating or
Acquiring Loans and Initial Direct Costs of Leases
(SFAS No. 91). Fee income on fee-based
closings is recorded in Mortgage fees and is recognized at the
time of closing.
Loans closed to be sold and fee-based closings are the key
drivers of Mortgage fees. Fees generated by our appraisal
services business are recorded when the services are performed,
regardless of whether the loan closes and are associated with
both loans closed to be sold and fee-based closings.
Mortgage fees decreased by $19 million (37%) from the third
quarter of 2005 to the third quarter of 2006. This decrease was
primarily attributable to the decline in loans closed to be sold
of $2.3 billion (21%), coupled with a decrease in fee-based
closings of $1.1 billion (33%). The decline in total
closings was primarily attributable to the impact of lower
industry origination volumes due to the impact of the slowing
housing market as well as higher interest rates which caused a
decline in refinancing activity. Additionally, the decrease in
fee-based closings was primarily due to a decrease in fee-based
closings from our financial institution clients. The
$3.3 billion (24%) decline in total closings was
attributable to a $1.7 billion (38%) decline in refinance
closings and a $1.6 billion (17%) decline in purchase
closings from the third quarter of 2005 to the third quarter of
2006. Refinancing activity is sensitive to interest rate changes
relative to borrowers current interest rates, and
typically increases when interest rates fall and decreases when
interest rates rise. The decline in purchase closings was due to
the decline in overall housing purchases in 2006 compared to
2005.
Gain on
Sale of Mortgage Loans, Net
Gain on sale of mortgage loans, net consists of the following:
|
|
|
|
n
|
Gain on loans sold, including the changes in the fair value of
all loan-related derivatives including our interest rate lock
commitments (IRLCs), freestanding loan-related
derivatives and loan derivatives designated in a hedge
relationship. See Note 7, Derivatives and Risk
Management Activities in the Notes to Condensed
Consolidated Financial Statements included in this
Form 10-Q.
To the extent the derivatives are considered effective hedges
under SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities
(SFAS No. 133), changes in the fair value
of the mortgage loans would be recorded;
|
|
|
n
|
The initial value of capitalized servicing, which represents a
non-cash increase to our MSRs. Subsequent changes in the fair
value of MSRs are recorded in Net loan servicing (loss) income
in the Mortgage Servicing segment; and
|
|
|
n
|
Recognition of net loan origination fees and expenses previously
deferred under SFAS No. 91.

Gain on sale of mortgage loans, net decreased by
$72 million (63%) from the third quarter of 2005 to the
third quarter of 2006. Gain on loans sold net of the recognition
of deferred fees and costs (the effects of
SFAS No. 91) declined by $47 million from
the third quarter of 2005 to the third quarter of 2006 primarily
due to a $65 million decline in margins on loans sold
coupled with a lower volume of loans sold during the third
quarter of 2006. Typically, when industry loan volumes decline
due to a rising interest rate environment or other factors,
competitive pricing pressures occur as mortgage companies
compete for fewer customers, which results in lower margins.
These decreases were partially offset by an $18 million
favorable variance from economic hedge ineffectiveness resulting
from our risk management activities related to IRLCs and
mortgage loans due to a loss of $12 million recognized
during the third quarter of 2005 compared to a gain of
$6 million recognized during the third quarter of 2006. A
$25 million decrease in the initial value of capitalized
servicing was caused by a lower volume of loans sold partially
offset by an increase of 2 basis points (bps)
in the capitalized servicing rate in the third quarter of 2006
compared to the third quarter of 2005.
Mortgage
Net Finance Income
Mortgage net finance income allocable to the Mortgage Production
segment consists of interest income on mortgage loans held for
sale (MLHS) and interest expense allocated on debt
used to fund MLHS and is driven by the average volume of
loans held for sale, the average volume of outstanding
borrowings, the note rate on loans held for sale and the cost of
funds rate of our outstanding borrowings. Mortgage net finance
income allocable to the Mortgage Production segment declined by
$12 million (109%) in the third quarter of 2006 compared to
the third quarter of 2005 due to a $6 million (14%)
increase in Mortgage interest expense and a $6 million
(11%) decrease in Mortgage interest income. The $6 million
increase in Mortgage interest expense was attributable to an
increase of $9 million due to a higher cost of funds from
our outstanding borrowings partially offset by a $3 million
decrease due to lower average borrowings. A significant portion
of our loan originations are funded with variable-rate
short-term debt. At September 30, 2006 and 2005, one-month
London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR), which is used
as a benchmark for short-term rates, was 5.46% and 3.95%,
respectively, an increase of 151 bps. The $6 million
decrease in Mortgage interest income was primarily due to lower
average loans held for sale partially offset by higher note
rates associated with loans held for sale.
Salaries
and Related Expenses
Salaries and related expenses allocable to the Mortgage
Production segment are reflected net of loan origination costs
deferred under SFAS No. 91 and consist of commissions
paid to employees involved in the loan origination process, as
well as compensation, payroll taxes and benefits paid to
employees in our mortgage production operations and allocations
for overhead. Salaries and related expenses decreased by
$23 million (32%) in the third quarter of 2006 compared to
the third quarter of 2005 primarily due to a decrease in average
staffing levels due to lower origination volumes and employee
attrition. The decrease in Salaries and related expenses was
partially offset by a decrease in deferred commission expenses
under SFAS No. 91 primarily associated with lower
loans closed to be sold during the third quarter of 2006
compared to those closed during the third quarter of 2005. The
decreased expense deferrals caused a $3 million increase in
Salaries and related expenses during the third quarter of 2006
compared to the third quarter of 2005.
57
Other
Operating Expenses
Other operating expenses allocable to the Mortgage Production
segment are reflected net of loan origination costs deferred
under SFAS No. 91 and consist of production-direct
expenses, appraisal expense and allocations for overhead. Other
operating expenses increased by $2 million (4%) during the
third quarter of 2006 compared to the third quarter of 2005.
This increase was primarily attributable to $12 million of
increased allocated costs primarily resulting from incremental
fees and expense for additional auditor services, financial and
other consulting services, legal services and liquidity waivers,
including a $6 million loss on extinguishment of debt, that
was partially offset by a reduction in expense due to a 24%
decrease in total closings during the third quarter of 2006
compared to those closed during the third quarter of 2005.
Mortgage
Servicing Segment
Net revenues decreased by $44 million (81%) in the third
quarter of 2006 compared to the third quarter of 2005. As
discussed in greater detail below, a $64 million
unfavorable change in Amortization and valuation adjustments
related to mortgage servicing rights, net was partially offset
by increases of $10 million, $8 million and
$2 million in Loan servicing income, Mortgage net finance
income and Other income, respectively.
Segment (loss) profit unfavorably changed by $34 million in
the third quarter of 2006 compared to the third quarter of 2005
as the $44 million decrease in Net revenues was partially
offset by a $10 million (37%) decrease in Total expenses.
The $10 million decrease in Total expenses was due to
decreases of $7 million, $2 million and
$1 million in Other operating expenses, Other depreciation
and amortization and Salaries and related expenses, respectively.

Mortgage
Net Finance Income
Mortgage net finance income allocable to the Mortgage Servicing
segment consists of interest income credits from escrow
balances, interest income from investment balances (including
investments held by our reinsurance subsidiary) and interest
expense allocated on debt used to fund our MSRs, and is driven
by the average volume of outstanding borrowings and the cost of
funds rate of our outstanding borrowings. Mortgage net finance
income increased by $8 million (40%) in the third quarter
of 2006 compared to the third quarter of 2005, primarily due to
higher income from escrow balances, partially offset by higher
interest expense on debt allocated to the funding of MSRs. These
increases were primarily due to higher short-term interest rates
in the third quarter of 2006 compared to the third quarter of
2005 since the escrow balances earn income based upon one-month
LIBOR.
Loan
Servicing Income
Loan servicing income includes recurring servicing fees, other
ancillary fees and net reinsurance income from our wholly owned
reinsurance subsidiary, Atrium Insurance Corporation
(Atrium). Recurring servicing fees are recognized
upon receipt of the coupon payment from the borrower and
recorded net of guaranty fees. Net
59
reinsurance income represents premiums earned on reinsurance
contracts, net of ceding commission and adjustments to the
allowance for reinsurance losses. The primary driver for Loan
servicing income is average loan servicing portfolio.

Loan servicing income increased by $10 million (8%) in the
third quarter of 2006 compared to the third quarter of 2005.
This increase is primarily related to higher net service fee
revenue and late fees and other ancillary servicing revenue
associated with the 9% increase in the average loan servicing
portfolio during the third quarter of 2006 compared to the third
quarter of 2005.
Amortization
and Valuation Adjustments Related to Mortgage Servicing Rights,
Net
Amortization and valuation adjustments related to mortgage
servicing rights, net includes Amortization and recovery of
impairment of mortgage servicing rights, Change in fair value of
mortgage servicing rights and Net derivative gain (loss) related
to mortgage servicing rights. We adopted the provisions of
SFAS No. 156 on January 1, 2006 and elected the
fair value measurement method for valuing our MSRs. The
unfavorable change of $64 million (76%) from the third
quarter of 2005 to the third quarter of 2006 was attributable to
a $302 million decrease in the fair value of mortgage
servicing rights recorded during the third quarter of 2006 and
$122 million of Amortization and recovery of impairment of
mortgage servicing rights recorded in the third quarter of 2005,
which were partially offset by a $360 million favorable
change in net derivative gains and losses between periods. The
components of Amortization and valuation adjustments related to
mortgage servicing rights, net are discussed separately below.
Amortization and Recovery of Impairment of Mortgage Servicing
Rights: Prior to our adoption of
SFAS No. 156 on January 1, 2006, MSRs were
carried at the lower of cost or fair value based on defined
strata and were amortized based upon the ratio of the current
month net servicing income (estimated at the beginning of the
month) to the expected net servicing income over the life of the
servicing portfolio. In addition, MSRs were evaluated for
impairment by strata and a valuation allowance was recognized
when the fair value of the strata was less than the amortized
basis of the strata. During the third quarter of 2005, we
recorded $118 million of amortization of MSRs and a
$240 million recovery of impairment of MSRs.
Change in Fair Value of Mortgage Servicing
Rights: The fair value of our MSRs is estimated
based upon estimates of expected future cash flows from our MSRs
considering prepayment estimates, our historical prepayment
rates, portfolio characteristics, interest rates based on
interest rate yield curves, implied volatility and other
economic factors. Generally, the value of our MSRs is expected
to increase when interest rates rise and decrease when interest
rates decline due to the effect those changes in interest rates
have on prepayment estimates. Other factors noted above as well
as the overall market demand for MSRs may also affect the MSRs
valuation. The MSRs valuation is validated quarterly by
comparison to a third-party market valuation of our portfolio.
The Change in fair value of mortgage servicing rights is
attributable to the realization of expected cash flows and
market factors which impact the market inputs and assumptions
used in our valuation model. The change in value of MSRs due to
the realization of expected cash flows is comparable to the
amortization expense recorded for periods prior to
January 1, 2006. During the third quarter of 2006, the fair
value of our MSRs was reduced by $91 million due to the
realization of expected cash flows. The change in fair value due
to changes in market inputs
60
or assumptions used in the valuation model was an unfavorable
change of $211 million. This unfavorable change was
primarily due to the decrease in mortgage interest rates during
the third quarter of 2006 leading to higher expected
prepayments. The
10-year
U.S. Treasury (Treasury) rate, which is widely
regarded as a benchmark for mortgage rates, decreased by
51 bps during the third quarter of 2006. During the third
quarter of 2005, the
10-year
Treasury rate increased by 39 bps.
Net Derivative Gain (Loss) Related to Mortgage Servicing
Rights: We use a combination of derivatives to
protect against potential adverse changes in the value of our
MSRs resulting from a decline in interest rates. See
Note 7, Derivatives and Risk Management
Activities in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated
Financial Statements included in this
Form 10-Q.
The amount and composition of derivatives used will depend on
the exposure to loss of value on our MSRs, the expected cost of
the derivatives and the increased earnings generated by
origination of new loans resulting from the decline in interest
rates (the natural business hedge). The natural business hedge
provides a benefit when increased borrower refinancing activity
results in higher production volumes which would partially
offset losses in the valuation of our MSRs thereby reducing the
need to use derivatives. The benefit of the natural business
hedge depends on the decline in interest rates required to
create an incentive for borrowers to refinance their mortgages
and lower their rates.
During the third quarter of 2006, the value of derivatives
related to our MSRs increased by $154 million. During the
third quarter of 2005, the value of derivatives related to our
MSRs decreased by $206 million. As described below, our net
results from MSRs risk management activities were a loss of
$57 million and a gain of $5 million during the third
quarters of 2006 and 2005, respectively. Refer to
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures
About Market Risk for an analysis of the impact of
25 bps, 50 bps and 100 bps changes in interest
rates on the valuation of our MSRs and related derivatives at
September 30, 2006.

Other
Income
Other income allocable to the Mortgage Servicing segment
consists primarily of net gains or losses on investment
securities and increased by $2 million (200%) in the third
quarter of 2006 compared to the third quarter of 2005.
Other
Operating Expenses
Other operating expenses allocable to the Mortgage Servicing
segment include servicing-direct expenses, costs associated with
foreclosure and real estate owned (REO) and
allocations for overhead. Other operating expenses decreased by
$7 million (50%) during the third quarter of 2006 compared
to the third quarter of 2005. This decrease was primarily
attributable to a decrease in foreclosure losses and reserves
associated with loans sold with recourse.
Fleet
Management Services Segment
Net revenues increased by $33 million (8%) in the third
quarter of 2006 compared to the third quarter of 2005. As
discussed in greater detail below, the increase in Net revenues
was due to increases of $34 million in Fleet
61
lease income and $2 million in Fleet management fees that
were partially offset by a $3 million decrease in Other
income.
Segment profit increased by $6 million (33%) in the third
quarter of 2006 compared to the third quarter of 2005 due to the
$33 million increase in Net revenues, partially offset by a
$27 million (7%) increase in Total expenses. The
$27 million increase in Total expenses was primarily due to
increases of $15 million, $12 million and
$4 million in Fleet interest expense, Depreciation on
operating leases and Other operating expenses, respectively,
that were partially offset by a $3 million decrease in
Salaries and related expenses.
The following tables present a summary of our financial results
and related drivers for the Fleet Management Services segment,

of our Net revenues and Total expenses:

Fleet
Management Fees
Fleet management fees consist primarily of the revenues of our
principal fee-based products: fuel cards, maintenance services,
accident management services and monthly management fees for
leased vehicles. Fleet management fees increased by
$2 million (5%) in the third quarter of 2006 compared to
the third quarter of 2005 primarily due to the 3% increase in
leased vehicles.
Fleet
Lease Income
Fleet lease income increased by $34 million (10%) during
the third quarter of 2006 compared to the third quarter of 2005
due to higher total lease billings resulting from the 3%
increase in leased vehicles. Additionally, increased billings
due to higher interest rates on variable-interest rate leases
and new leases increased Fleet lease income.
62
Other
Income
Other income consists principally of the revenue generated by
our dealerships and other miscellaneous revenues. During the
third quarter of 2006, Other income decreased by $3 million
(12%) compared to the third quarter of 2005, primarily due to a
31% decline in new and used vehicle sales at our dealerships.
Salaries
and Related Expenses
Salaries and related expenses decreased by $3 million (13%)
in the third quarter of 2006 compared to the third quarter of
2005, primarily due to decreases in variable compensation
expenses.
Depreciation
on Operating Leases
Depreciation on operating leases is the depreciation expense
associated with our leased asset portfolio. Depreciation on
operating leases during the third quarter of 2006 increased by
$12 million (4%) compared to the third quarter of 2005,
primarily due to the 3% increase in leased units and higher
average depreciation expense on replaced vehicles in the
existing vehicle portfolio. These increases were partially
offset by an increase in motor company monies retained by the
business and recognized during the third quarter of 2006, which
are accounted for as adjustments to the basis of the leased
units.
Fleet
Interest Expense
Fleet interest expense increased by $15 million (42%)
during the third quarter of 2006 compared to the third quarter
of 2005. The increase in Fleet interest expense was primarily
due to rising short-term interest rates and increased debt
associated with the 3% increase in leased vehicles.
Other
Operating Expenses
Other operating expenses increased by $4 million (11%)
during the third quarter of 2006 compared to the third quarter
of 2005, primarily due to increased allocated costs primarily
resulting from incremental fees and expenses for additional
auditor services, financial and other consulting services and
legal services.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2006, our Net
revenues decreased by $178 million (10%) compared to the
nine months ended September 30, 2005, primarily due to
decreases of $139 million and
63
$129 million in our Mortgage Production and Mortgage
Servicing segments, respectively, that were partially offset by
a $91 million increase in our Fleet Management Services
segment. In addition, Net revenues during the nine months ended
September 30, 2006 included the elimination of
$1 million of intersegment revenues recorded by the
Mortgage Servicing segment. Our (Loss) income from continuing
operations before income taxes and minority interest during the
nine months ended September 30, 2005 included
$41 million of Spin-Off related expenses, which were
excluded from the results of our reportable segments. Our (Loss)
income from continuing operations before income taxes and
minority interest unfavorably changed by $149 million
during the nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared to
the nine months ended September 30, 2005 due to unfavorable
changes of $121 million and $84 million in our
Mortgage Servicing and Mortgage Production segments,
respectively, that were partially offset by the Spin-Off
expenses recorded in 2005, a favorable change of
$14 million in our Fleet Management Services segment and a
$1 million decrease in other expenses not allocated to our
reportable segments.
During the preparation of the Condensed Consolidated Financial
Statements as of and for the three months ended March 31,
2006, we identified and corrected errors related to prior
periods. The effect of correcting these errors on the Condensed
Consolidated Statement of Operations for the nine months ended
September 30, 2006 was to reduce Net loss by
$3 million (net of income taxes of $2 million). The
corrections included an adjustment for franchise tax accruals
previously recorded during the years ended December 31,
2002 and 2003 and certain other miscellaneous adjustments
related to the year ended December 31, 2005. We evaluated
the impact of the adjustments and determined that they are not
material, individually or in the aggregate, to the nine months
ended September 30, 2006 or the years ended
December 31, 2006, 2005, 2003 or 2002.
We record our interim tax provisions by applying a projected
full-year effective income tax rate to our quarterly pre-tax
income or loss for results that we deem to be reliably estimable
in accordance with FIN 18. Certain results dependent on
fair value adjustments of our Mortgage Production and Mortgage
Servicing segments are considered not to be reliably estimable
and therefore we record discrete
year-to-date
income tax provisions on those results.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2006, the
Provision for income taxes was $10 million and was
significantly impacted by an $11 million increase in income
tax contingency reserves and a $3 million increase in
valuation allowances for state NOLs generated during the nine
months ended September 30, 2006 for which we believe it is
more likely than not that the NOLs will not be realized. In
addition, we recorded a state income tax benefit of
$3 million. Due to our
year-to-date
and projected full-year mix of income and loss from our
operations by entity and state income tax jurisdiction in 2006,
there was a significant change in the 2006 state income tax
effective rate in comparison to 2005.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2005, the
Provision for income taxes was $64 million and was
significantly impacted by a net deferred income tax charge
related to the Spin-Off of $5 million representing the
change in estimated deferred state income taxes for state
apportionment factors.
Segment
Results
Discussed below are the results of operations for each of our
reportable segments. Certain income and expenses not allocated
to our reportable segments and intersegment eliminations are
reported under the heading Other. Due to the commencement of
operations of the Mortgage Venture in the fourth quarter of
2005, our management began evaluating the operating results of
each of our reportable segments based upon Net revenues and
segment profit or loss, which is presented as the income or loss
from continuing operations before income tax provisions and
after Minority interest in income of consolidated entities, net
of income taxes. The Mortgage Production segment profit or loss
excludes Realogys minority interest in the profits and
losses of the Mortgage Venture. Prior to the commencement of the
Mortgage Venture operations, PHH Mortgage was party to marketing
agreements with NRT and Cartus, wherein PHH Mortgage paid fees
for services provided. These marketing agreements terminated
when the Mortgage Venture commenced operations. The provisions
of the Strategic Relationship Agreement and the marketing
agreement thereafter began to govern the manner in which the
Mortgage Venture and PHH Mortgage, respectively, are recommended
by NRT, Cartus and TRG.

Net revenues reported under the heading Other for the nine
months ended September 30, 2006 represent the elimination
of $1 million of intersegment revenues recorded by the
Mortgage Servicing segment, which are offset in Segment (loss)
profit by the elimination of $1 million of intersegment
expense recorded by the Fleet Management Services segment.
Segment loss reported under the heading Other for the nine
months ended September 30, 2005 was primarily
$41 million of Spin-Off related expenses. |
Mortgage
Production Segment
Net revenues decreased by $139 million (34%) during the
nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared to the nine
months ended September 30, 2005. As discussed in greater
detail below, Net revenues were impacted by decreases of
$61 million in Gain on sale of mortgage loans, net,
$49 million in Mortgage fees, $26 million in Mortgage
net finance income and $3 million in Other income.
Segment loss increased by $85 million (773%) during the
nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared to the nine
months ended September 30, 2005 driven by the
$139 million decrease in Net revenues, which was partially
offset by a $55 million (13%) decrease in Total expenses.
In addition, during the nine months ended September 30,
2006, the Mortgage Production segment recognized a
$1 million Minority interest in income of consolidated
entities, net of income taxes. The $55 million reduction in
Total expenses was due to decreases in Salaries and related
expenses of $51 million and Other operating expenses of
$9 million that were partially offset by increases in Other
depreciation and amortization of $3 million and Occupancy
and other office expenses of $2 million.

Mortgage
Fees
Mortgage fees consist primarily of fees collected on loans
originated for others (including brokered loans and loans
originated through our financial institutions channel), fees on
cancelled loans, and appraisal and other income generated by our
appraisal services business. Mortgage fees collected on loans
originated through our financial institutions channel are
recorded in Mortgage fees when the financial institution retains
the underlying
66
loan. Loans purchased from financial institutions are included
in loans closed to be sold while loans retained by financial
institutions are included in fee-based closings.
Fee income on loans closed to be sold is deferred until the
loans are sold and recognized in Gain on sale of mortgage loans,
net in accordance with SFAS No. 91. Fee income on
fee-based closings is recorded in Mortgage fees and is
recognized at the time of closing.
Loans closed to be sold and fee-based closings are the key
drivers of Mortgage fees. Fees generated by our appraisal
services business are recorded when the services are performed,
regardless of whether the loan closes and are associated with
both loans closed to be sold and fee-based closings.
Mortgage fees decreased by $49 million (33%) from the nine
months ended September 30, 2005 to the nine months ended
September 30, 2006. This decrease was primarily
attributable to the decline in fee-based closings of
$2.7 billion (29%), coupled with a $2.1 billion (8%)
decrease in loans closed to be sold. The decline in total
closings was primarily attributable to the impact of lower
industry origination volumes due to the impact of the slowing
housing market as well as higher interest rates which caused a
decline in refinancing activity. The change in mix between
fee-based closings and loans closed to be sold was primarily due
to a decrease in fee-based closings from our financial
institution clients during the nine months ended
September 30, 2006 compared to the nine months ended
September 30, 2005. The $4.8 billion (13%) decline in
total closings from the nine months ended September 30,
2005 to the nine months ended September 30, 2006 was
attributable to a $2.5 billion (22%) decline in refinance
closings and a $2.3 billion (9%) decline in purchase
closings. Refinancing activity is sensitive to interest rate
changes relative to borrowers current interest rates, and
typically increases when interest rates fall and decreases when
interest rates rise. The decline in purchase closings was due to
the decline in overall housing purchases in 2006 compared to
2005.
Gain on
Sale of Mortgage Loans, Net
Gain on sale of mortgage loans, net consists of the following:
|
|
|
|
n
|
Gain on loans sold, including the changes in the fair value of
all loan-related derivatives including our IRLCs, freestanding
loan-related derivatives and loan derivatives designated in a
hedge relationship. See Note 7, Derivatives and Risk
Management Activities in the Notes to Condensed
Consolidated Financial Statements included in this
Form 10-Q.
To the extent the derivatives are considered effective hedges
under SFAS No. 133, changes in the fair value of the
mortgage loans would be recorded;
|
|
|
n
|
The initial value of capitalized servicing, which represents a
non-cash increase to our MSRs. Subsequent changes in the fair
value of MSRs are recorded in Net loan servicing income in the
Mortgage Servicing segment; and
|
|
|
n
|
Recognition of net loan origination fees and expenses previously
deferred under SFAS No. 91.

Gain on sale of mortgage loans, net decreased by
$61 million (27%) from the nine months ended
September 30, 2005 to the nine months ended
September 30, 2006. Gain on loans sold net of the
recognition of deferred fees and costs (the effects of
SFAS No. 91) declined by $92 million from
the nine months ended
67
September 30, 2005 to the nine months ended
September 30, 2006 driven by a $123 million decline
due to lower margins on loans sold and a lower volume of loans
sold that was partially offset by a $31 million favorable
variance from economic hedge ineffectiveness resulting from our
risk management activities related to IRLCs and mortgage loans.
Typically, when industry loan volumes decline due to a rising
interest rate environment or other factors, competitive pricing
pressures occur as mortgage companies compete for fewer
customers, which results in lower margins. The $31 million
favorable variance from economic hedge ineffectiveness resulting
from our risk management activities related to IRLCs and
mortgage loans was due to a decrease in losses recognized from
$33 million during the nine months ended September 30,
2005 to $2 million during the nine months ended
September 30, 2006. A $31 million increase in the
initial value of capitalized servicing was caused by an increase
of 18 bps in the capitalized servicing rate partially
offset by the lower volume of loans sold in the nine months
ended September 30, 2006 compared to the nine months ended
September 30, 2005.
Mortgage
Net Finance Income
Mortgage net finance income allocable to the Mortgage Production
segment consists of interest income on MLHS and interest expense
allocated on debt used to fund MLHS and is driven by the
average volume of loans held for sale, the average volume of
outstanding borrowings, the note rate on loans held for sale and
the cost of funds rate of our outstanding borrowings. Mortgage
net finance income allocable to the Mortgage Production segment
declined by $26 million (93%) in the nine months ended
September 30, 2006 compared to the nine months ended
September 30, 2005 due to a $32 million (31%) increase
in Mortgage interest expense that was partially offset by a
$6 million (5%) increase in Mortgage interest income. The
$32 million increase in Mortgage interest expense was
attributable to increases of $30 million due to a higher
cost of funds from our outstanding borrowings and
$2 million due to higher average borrowings. A significant
portion of our loan originations are funded with variable-rate
short-term debt. At September 30, 2006 and 2005, one-month
LIBOR, which is used as a benchmark for short-term rates, was
5.46% and 3.95%, respectively, an increase of 151 bps. The
$6 million increase in Mortgage interest income was
primarily due to higher note rates associated with loans held
for sale partially offset by lower average loans held for sale.
Salaries
and Related Expenses
Salaries and related expenses allocable to the Mortgage
Production segment are reflected net of loan origination costs
deferred under SFAS No. 91 and consist of commissions
paid to employees involved in the loan origination process, as
well as compensation, payroll taxes and benefits paid to
employees in our mortgage production operations and allocations
for overhead. Salaries and related expenses decreased by
$51 million (24%) in the nine months ended
September 30, 2006 compared to the nine months ended
September 30, 2005 primarily due to a decrease in average
staffing levels due to lower origination volumes and employee
attrition. The decrease in Salaries and related expenses is also
attributable to an increase in deferred commission expenses
under SFAS No. 91 primarily associated with the higher
blend of loans closed to be sold compared to fee-based closings
during the nine months ended September 30, 2006 in
comparison to the nine months ended September 30, 2005. The
increased expense deferrals caused a $5 million decrease in
Salaries and related expenses during the nine months ended
September 30, 2006 compared to the nine months ended
September 30, 2005.
Other
Operating Expenses
Other operating expenses allocable to the Mortgage Production
segment are reflected net of loan origination costs deferred
under SFAS No. 91 and consist of production-direct
expenses, appraisal expense and allocations for overhead. Other
operating expenses decreased by $9 million (6%) during the
nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared to the nine
months ended September 30, 2005. This decrease was
primarily attributable to a 13% decrease in total closings
during the nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared to
those closed during the nine months ended September 30,
2005, as well as an increase in deferred expenses under
SFAS No. 91 primarily associated with the higher blend
of loans closed to be sold compared to fee-based closings during
the nine months ended September 30, 2006 in comparison to
the nine months ended September 30, 2005. This decrease was
partially offset by $16 million of allocated costs
primarily resulting from incremental fees and expenses for
additional auditor services, financial and other consulting
services, legal services and liquidity waivers, including a
$6 million loss on extinguishment of debt.

Mortgage
Servicing Segment
Net revenues decreased by $129 million (61%) during the
nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared to the nine
months ended September 30, 2005. As discussed in greater
detail below, a $184 million unfavorable change in
Amortization and valuation adjustments related to mortgage
servicing rights, net was partially offset by increases of
$30 million, $23 million and $2 million in
Mortgage net finance income, Loan servicing income and Other
income, respectively.
Segment profit decreased by $121 million (90%) during the
nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared to the nine
months ended September 30, 2005 driven by the
$129 million decrease in Net revenues that was partially
offset by an $8 million (11%) decrease in Total expenses.
The $8 million decrease in Total expenses was due to
decreases of $6 million in Other depreciation and
amortization, $2 million in Other operating expenses and
$1 million in Salaries and related expenses that were
partially offset by a $1 million increase in Occupancy and
other office expenses.
The following tables present a summary of our financial results
and key related drivers for the Mortgage Servicing segment, and

Mortgage
Net Finance Income
Mortgage net finance income allocable to the Mortgage Servicing
segment consists of interest income credits from escrow
balances, interest income from investment balances (including
investments held by our reinsurance subsidiary) and interest
expense allocated on debt used to fund our MSRs, and is driven
by the average volume of outstanding borrowings and the cost of
funds rate of our outstanding borrowings. Mortgage net finance
income increased by $30 million (81%) in the nine months
ended September 30, 2006 compared to the nine months ended
September 30, 2005, primarily due to higher income from
escrow balances, partially offset by higher interest expense on
debt allocated to the funding of MSRs. These increases were
primarily due to higher short-term interest rates in the nine
months ended September 30, 2006 compared to the nine months
ended September 30, 2005 since the escrow balances earn
income based upon one-month LIBOR.
Loan
Servicing Income
Loan servicing income includes recurring servicing fees, other
ancillary fees and net reinsurance income from our wholly owned
reinsurance subsidiary, Atrium. Recurring servicing fees are
recognized upon receipt of the coupon payment from the borrower
and recorded net of guaranty fees. Net reinsurance income
represents premiums earned on reinsurance contracts, net of
ceding commission and adjustments to the allowance for
reinsurance losses. The primary driver for Loan servicing income
is average loan servicing portfolio.
The components of Loan servicing income were as follows:

Loan servicing income increased by $23 million (6%) in the
nine months ended September 30, 2006 from the nine months
ended September 30, 2005. This increase is primarily
related to higher net service fee revenue and late fees and
other ancillary servicing revenue associated with the 9%
increase in the average loan servicing portfolio that was
partially offset by a $3 million decrease in net
reinsurance income during the nine months ended
September 30, 2006 compared to the nine months ended
September 30, 2005.
Amortization
and Valuation Adjustments Related to Mortgage Servicing Rights,
Net
Amortization and valuation adjustments related to mortgage
servicing rights, net includes Amortization and recovery of
impairment of mortgage servicing rights, Change in fair value of
mortgage servicing rights and Net derivative (loss) gain related
to mortgage servicing rights. We adopted the provisions of
SFAS No. 156 on January 1, 2006 and elected the
fair value measurement method for valuing our MSRs. The
unfavorable change of $184 million (99%) from the nine
months ended September 30, 2005 to the nine months ended
September 30, 2006 was attributable to a $237 million
decrease in the fair value of mortgage servicing rights recorded
during the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and a
$177 million unfavorable change in net derivative gains and
losses between periods that were partially offset by
$230 million of Amortization and recovery of impairment of
mortgage servicing rights recorded in the nine months ended
September 30, 2005. The components of Amortization and
valuation adjustments related to mortgage servicing rights, net
are discussed separately below.
Amortization and Recovery of Impairment of Mortgage Servicing
Rights: Prior to our adoption of
SFAS No. 156 on January 1, 2006, MSRs were
carried at the lower of cost or fair value based on defined
strata and were amortized based upon the ratio of the current
month net servicing income (estimated at the beginning of
70
the month) to the expected net servicing income over the life of
the servicing portfolio. In addition, MSRs were evaluated for
impairment by strata and a valuation allowance was recognized
when the fair value of the strata was less than the amortized
basis of the strata. During the nine months ended
September 30, 2005, we recorded $330 million of
amortization of MSRs and a $100 million recovery of
impairment of MSRs.
Change in Fair Value of Mortgage Servicing
Rights: The fair value of our MSRs is estimated
based upon estimates of expected future cash flows from our MSRs
considering prepayment estimates, our historical prepayment
rates, portfolio characteristics, interest rates based on
interest rate yield curves, implied volatility and other
economic factors. Generally, the value of our MSRs is expected
to increase when interest rates rise and decrease when interest
rates decline due to the effect those changes in interest rates
have on prepayment estimates. Other factors noted above as well
as the overall market demand for MSRs may also affect the MSRs
valuation. The MSRs valuation is validated quarterly by
comparison to a third-party market valuation of our portfolio.
The Change in fair value of mortgage servicing rights is
attributable to the realization of expected cash flows and
market factors which impact the market inputs and assumptions
used in our valuation model. The change in value of MSRs due to
the realization of expected cash flows is comparable to the
amortization expense recorded for periods prior to
January 1, 2006. During the nine months ended
September 30, 2006, the fair value of our MSRs was reduced
by $291 million due to the realization of expected cash
flows. The change in fair value due to changes in market inputs
or assumptions used in the valuation model was a favorable
change of $54 million. This favorable change was primarily
due to the increase in mortgage interest rates during the nine
months ended September 30, 2006 leading to lower expected
prepayments. The
10-year
Treasury rate, which is widely regarded as a benchmark for
mortgage rates, increased by 24 bps during the nine months
ended September 30, 2006. During the nine months ended
September 30, 2005, the
10-year
Treasury rate increased by 11 bps.
Net Derivative (Loss) Gain Related to Mortgage Servicing
Rights: We use a combination of derivatives to
protect against potential adverse changes in the value of our
MSRs resulting from a decline in interest rates. See
Note 7, Derivatives and Risk Management
Activities in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated
Financial Statements included in this
Form 10-Q.
The amount and composition of derivatives used will depend on
the exposure to loss of value on our MSRs, the expected cost of
the derivatives and the increased earnings generated by
origination of new loans resulting from the decline in interest
rates (the natural business hedge). The natural business hedge
provides a benefit when increased borrower refinancing activity
results in higher production volumes which would partially
offset losses in the valuation of our MSRs thereby reducing the
need to use derivatives. The benefit of the natural business
hedge depends on the decline in interest rates required to
create an incentive for borrowers to refinance their mortgages
and lower their rates.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2006, the value
of derivatives related to our MSRs decreased by
$132 million. During the nine months ended
September 30, 2005, the value of derivatives related to our
MSRs increased by $45 million. As described below, our net
results from MSRs risk management activities were a loss of
$78 million and a gain of $65 million during the nine
months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively.
Refer to Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative
Disclosures About Market Risk for an analysis of the
impact of 25 bps, 50 bps and 100 bps changes in
interest rates on the valuation of our MSRs and related
derivatives at September 30, 2006.

Other
Income
Other income allocable to the Mortgage Servicing segment
consists primarily of net gains or losses on investment
securities and increased by $2 million (100%) in the nine
months ended September 30, 2006 compared to the nine months
ended September 30, 2005.
Fleet
Management Services Segment
Net revenues increased by $91 million (7%) during the nine
months ended September 30, 2006 compared to the nine months
ended September 30, 2005. As discussed in greater detail
below, the increase in Net revenues was due to increases of
$91 million and $6 million in Fleet lease income and
Fleet management fees, respectively, that were partially offset
by a $6 million decrease in Other income.
Segment profit increased by $14 million (23%) during the
nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared to the nine
months ended September 30, 2005 due to the $91 million
increase in Net revenues, partially offset by a $77 million
(7%) increase in Total expenses. The $77 million increase
in Total expenses was primarily due to increases of
$46 million and $36 million in Fleet interest expense
and Depreciation on operating leases, respectively, which were
partially offset by a $4 million decrease in Other
operating expenses.
The following tables present a summary of our financial results
and related drivers for the Fleet Management Services segment,

Fleet
Management Fees
Fleet management fees consist primarily of the revenues of our
principal fee-based products: fuel cards, maintenance services,
accident management services and monthly management fees for
leased vehicles. Fleet
72
management fees increased by $6 million (5%) in the nine
months ended September 30, 2006 compared to the nine months
ended September 30, 2005 primarily due to increases in
revenue from our principal fee-based products, which accounted
for approximately $4 million of the increase. Additionally,
Fleet management fees were enhanced by incremental revenue of
$2 million from other fee-based products.
Fleet
Lease Income
Fleet lease income increased by $91 million (9%) during the
nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared to the nine
months ended September 30, 2005 due to higher total lease
billings resulting from the 3% increase in leased vehicles.
Additionally, increased billings due to higher interest rates on
variable-interest rate leases and new leases increased Fleet
lease income.
Other
Income
Other income consists principally of the revenue generated by
our dealerships and other miscellaneous revenues. During the
nine months ended September 30, 2006, Other income declined
by $6 million (8%) in comparison to the nine months ended
September 30, 2005, primarily due to a 19% decline in new
and used vehicle sales at our dealerships.
Depreciation
on Operating Leases
Depreciation on operating leases is the depreciation expense
associated with our leased asset portfolio. Depreciation on
operating leases during the nine months ended September 30,
2006 increased by $36 million (4%) compared to the nine
months ended September 30, 2005, primarily due to the 3%
increase in leased units and higher average depreciation expense
on replaced vehicles in the existing vehicle portfolio. These
increases were partially offset by an increase in motor company
monies retained by the business and recognized during the nine
months ended September 30, 2006 which are accounted for as
adjustments to the basis of the leased units.
Fleet
Interest Expense
Fleet interest expense increased by $46 million (47%)
during the nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared to
the nine months ended September 30, 2005. The increase in
Fleet interest expense was primarily due to rising short-term
interest rates and increased debt associated with the 3%
increase in leased vehicles.
Other
Operating Expenses
Other operating expenses decreased by $4 million (4%)
during the nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared to
the nine months ended September 30, 2005. The decrease in
Other operating expenses was primarily due to a decrease in
costs of goods sold at our dealerships that was partially offset
by increased allocated costs primarily resulting from
incremental fees and expenses for additional auditor services,
financial and other consulting services and legal services.
Liquidity
and Capital Resources
General
Our liquidity is dependent upon our ability to fund maturities
of indebtedness, to fund growth in assets under management and
business operations and to meet contractual obligations. We
estimate how these liquidity needs may be impacted by a number
of factors including fluctuations in asset and liability levels
due to changes in our business operations, levels of interest
rates and unanticipated events. The primary operating funding
needs arise from the origination and warehousing of mortgage
loans, the purchase and funding of vehicles under management and
the retention of MSRs. Sources of liquidity include equity
capital including retained earnings, the unsecured debt markets,
bank lines of credit, secured borrowing including the
asset-backed debt markets and the liquidity provided by the sale
or securitization of assets.
73
In order to ensure adequate liquidity throughout a broad array
of operating environments, our funding plan relies upon multiple
sources of liquidity. We maintain liquidity at the parent
company level through access to the unsecured debt markets and
through contractually committed unsecured bank facilities.
Unsecured debt markets include commercial paper issued by the
parent company which we fully support with committed bank
facilities. These various unsecured sources of funds are
utilized to provide for a portion of the operating needs of our
mortgage and fleet management businesses. In addition, secured
borrowings, including asset-backed debt, asset sales and
securitization of assets are utilized to fund both vehicles
under management and mortgages held for resale.
Given our expectation for business volumes, we believe that our
sources of liquidity are adequate to fund our operations for the
next twelve months. Aggregate capital expenditures during the
year ended December 31, 2006 were approximately
$27 million.
Cash
Flows
At September 30, 2006, we had $94 million of Total
Cash and cash equivalents, a decrease of $13 million from
$107 million at December 31, 2005. The following table
summarizes the changes in Total Cash and cash equivalents during
the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005:

Continuing
Operations
Operating
Activities
During the nine months ended September 30, 2006, we
generated $942 million more cash from operating activities
than during the nine months ended September 30, 2005 as net
cash outflows related to the origination and sale of mortgage
loans during the nine months ended September 30, 2006 were
$874 million lower than the net cash outflows that occurred
during the nine months ended September 30, 2005. Cash flows
related to the origination and sale of mortgage loans may
fluctuate significantly from period to period due to the timing
of the underlying transactions.
Investing
Activities
During the nine months ended September 30, 2006, we used
$788 million more cash in investing activities than during
the nine months ended September 30, 2005. During the nine
months ended September 30, 2005, we redeemed
$400 million of senior notes issued under our Bishops
Gate Residential Mortgage Trust (Bishops Gate)
mortgage warehouse asset-backed debt arrangement, which caused a
significant decrease in Restricted cash during that period. The
remaining increase in cash used in investing activities was
primarily attributable to a
74
decrease of $543 million in net settlement proceeds for
derivatives related to MSRs that was partially offset by a
$224 million decrease in cash paid on derivatives related
to MSRs.
Financing
Activities
During the nine months ended September 30, 2006, we
generated $10 million more cash from financing activities
than during the nine months ended September 30, 2005.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2006, we
recorded $11.7 billion of higher proceeds from borrowings,
including borrowings incurred to redeem the Chesapeake Finance
Holdings LLC (Chesapeake Finance) and Terrapin
Funding LLC (Terrapin) debt. This increase in cash
provided by financing activities was partially offset by
$11.1 billion more cash used for the repayment of debt,
including the repayment of $3.2 billion of outstanding term
notes, variable funding notes and subordinated notes issued by
Chesapeake Finance and Terrapin and a $437 million lower
increase in net short-term borrowings during the nine months
ended September 30, 2006 compared to the nine months ended
September 30, 2005. In addition, during the nine months
ended September 30, 2005, we recorded a $100 million
cash contribution from Cendant related to the Spin-Off.
Discontinued
Operations
During the nine months ended September 30, 2005, our
discontinued operations generated (used) $184 million,
$(30) million and $(242) million of cash from
operating activities, investing activities and financing
activities, respectively. The discontinued operations were
distributed to our former parent company, Cendant, during the
first quarter of 2005.
Secondary
Mortgage Market
We rely on the secondary mortgage market for a substantial
amount of liquidity to support our operations. Nearly all
mortgage loans that we originate are sold in the secondary
mortgage market, primarily in the form of mortgage-backed
securities (MBS), asset-backed securities and
whole-loan transactions. A large component of the MBS we sell is
guaranteed by Fannie Mae, the Federal Home Loan Mortgage
Corporation (Freddie Mac) or the Government National
Mortgage Association (Ginnie Mae) (collectively,
Agency MBS). We also issue non-agency (or
non-conforming) MBS and asset-backed securities. We publicly
issue both non-conforming MBS and asset-backed securities that
are registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
SEC), and we also issue private non-conforming MBS
and asset-backed securities. Generally, these types of
securities have their own credit ratings and require some form
of credit enhancement, such as over-collateralization,
senior-subordinated structures, primary mortgage insurance,
and/or
private surety guarantees.
The Agency MBS market, whole-loan and non-conforming markets for
prime mortgage loans provide substantial liquidity for our
mortgage loan production. We focus our business process on
consistently producing quality mortgages that meet investor
requirements to continue to be able to access these markets.
Indebtedness
We utilize both secured and unsecured debt as key components of
our financing strategy. Our primary financing needs arise from
our assets under management programs which are summarized in the
table below:

Asset-Backed
Debt
Vehicle
Management Asset-Backed Debt
As of December 31, 2005, vehicle management asset-backed
debt primarily represented variable-rate term notes and variable
funding notes issued by Chesapeake Funding LLC, a wholly owned
subsidiary. Variable-rate term notes and variable funding notes
outstanding under this arrangement as of December 31, 2005
aggregated $3.0 billion. As of December 31, 2005,
subordinated notes issued by Terrapin, a consolidated entity,
aggregated $367 million. This debt was issued to support
the acquisition of vehicles used by the Fleet Management
Services segments leasing operations.
On March 7, 2006, Chesapeake Funding LLC changed its name
to Chesapeake Finance, and it and Terrapin redeemed all of their
outstanding term notes, variable funding notes and subordinated
notes (with aggregate outstanding principal balances of
$1.1 billion, $1.7 billion and $367 million,
respectively) and terminated the agreements associated with
those borrowings. Concurrently, Chesapeake Funding LLC
(Chesapeake), a newly formed wholly owned
subsidiary, issued variable funding notes under
Series 2006-1,
with capacity of $2.7 billion, and
Series 2006-2,
with capacity of $1.0 billion, to fund the redemption of
this debt and provide additional committed funding for the Fleet
Management Services operations. We recorded a $4 million
loss on the extinguishment of the Chesapeake Finance and
Terrapin debt that was included in Other operating expenses in
the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations
for the nine months ended September 30, 2006.
As of September 30, 2006, variable funding notes
outstanding under this arrangement aggregated $3.4 billion
and were issued to redeem the Chesapeake Finance and Terrapin
debt and support the acquisition of vehicles used by the Fleet
Management Services segments leasing operations. The debt
issued as of September 30, 2006 was collateralized by
approximately $4.0 billion of leased vehicles and related
assets, which are primarily included in Net investment in fleet
leases in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet
and are not available to pay our general obligations. The titles
to all the vehicles collateralizing the debt issued by
Chesapeake are held
76
in a bankruptcy remote trust, and we act as a servicer of all
such leases. The bankruptcy remote trust also acts as lessor
under both operating and direct financing lease agreements. As
of September 30, 2006, the agreements governing the
Series 2006-1
and
Series 2006-2
notes were scheduled to expire on March 6, 2007 and
December 1, 2006, respectively (the Scheduled Expiry
Dates). These agreements are renewable on or before the
Scheduled Expiry Dates, subject to agreement by the parties. If
the agreements are not renewed, monthly repayments on the notes
are required to be made as certain cash inflows are received
relating to the securitized vehicle leases and related assets
beginning in the month following the Scheduled Expiry Dates and
ending up to 125 months after the Scheduled Expiry Dates.
The weighted-average interest rate of vehicle management
asset-backed debt arrangements was 5.7% and 4.8% as of
September 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005, respectively.
On December 1, 2006, Chesapeake amended the agreement
governing its
Series 2006-2
notes to extend the Scheduled Expiry Date to November 30,
2007.
On March 6, 2007, Chesapeake amended the agreement
governing the
Series 2006-1
notes to extend the Scheduled Expiry Date to March 4, 2008
and increase the maximum borrowings allowed under the agreement
from $2.7 billion to $2.9 billion.
The availability of this asset-backed debt could suffer in the
event of: (i) the deterioration of the assets underlying
the asset-backed debt arrangement; (ii) our inability to
access the asset-backed debt market to refinance maturing debt
or (iii) termination of our role as servicer of the
underlying lease assets in the event that we default in the
performance of our servicing obligations or we declare
bankruptcy or become insolvent.
As of September 30, 2006, the total capacity under vehicle
management asset-backed debt arrangements was approximately
$3.7 billion, and we had $288 million of unused
capacity available.
Mortgage
Warehouse Asset-Backed Debt
Bishops Gate is a consolidated bankruptcy remote special
purpose entity that is utilized to warehouse mortgage loans
originated by us prior to their sale into the secondary market.
The activities of Bishops Gate are limited to
(i) purchasing mortgage loans from our mortgage subsidiary,
(ii) issuing commercial paper, senior term notes,
subordinated certificates
and/or
borrowing under a liquidity agreement to effect such purchases,
(iii) entering into interest rate swaps to hedge interest
rate risk and certain non-credit-related market risk on the
purchased mortgage loans, (iv) selling and securitizing the
acquired mortgage loans to third parties and (v) engaging
in certain related transactions. As of September 30, 2006
and December 31, 2005, the Bishops Gate term notes
(the Bishops Gate Notes) issued under the Base
Indenture dated as of December 11, 1998 (the
Bishops Gate Indenture) between The Bank of
New York, as Indenture Trustee (the Bishops Gate
Trustee) and Bishops Gate aggregated
$400 million and $800 million, respectively. On
September 20, 2006, Bishops Gate retired
$400 million of the Bishops Gate Notes and
$51 million of the Bishops Gate subordinated
certificates (the Bishops Gate Certificates)
in accordance with their scheduled maturity dates. Funds for the
retirement of this debt were provided by a combination of the
sale of mortgage loans and the issuance of commercial paper
issued by Bishops Gate. The Bishops Gate Notes are
variable-rate instruments and, as of September 30, 2006,
were scheduled to mature in November 2008. The weighted-average
interest rate on the Bishops Gate Notes as of
September 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005 was 5.7% and
4.7%, respectively. As of September 30, 2006 and
December 31, 2005, the Bishops Gate Certificates
aggregated $50 million and $101 million, respectively.
As of September 30, 2006, the Bishops Gate
Certificates were primarily fixed-rate instruments and were
scheduled to mature in May 2008. The weighted-average interest
rate on the Bishops Gate Certificates as of
September 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005 was 5.6% and
5.8%, respectively. As of September 30, 2006 and
December 31, 2005, the Bishops Gate commercial paper,
issued under the Amended and Restated Liquidity Agreement, dated
as of December 11, 1998, as further amended and restated as
of December 2, 2003, among Bishops Gate, certain
banks listed therein and JPMorgan Chase Bank, as Agent (the
Bishops Gate Liquidity Agreement), aggregated
$528 million and $84 million, respectively. As of
September 30, 2006, the capacity under the Bishops
Gate Liquidity Agreement was $1.5 billion. The
Bishops Gate commercial paper are fixed-rate instruments
and, as of September 30, 2006, were scheduled to mature in
October 2006. The weighted-average interest rate on the
Bishops Gate commercial paper as of September 30,
2006 and December 31, 2005 was 5.3% and 4.3%, respectively.
As of September 30, 2006, the debt issued by Bishops
Gate was collateralized
77
by approximately $1.0 billion of underlying mortgage loans
and related assets, primarily recorded in Mortgage loans held
for sale, net in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance
Sheet.
On December 1, 2006, the Bishops Gate Liquidity
Agreement was amended to extend its expiration date to
November 30, 2007 and reduce the maximum committed
borrowings allowed under the agreement from $1.5 billion to
$1.0 billion.
As of March 27, 2007, Bishops Gates commercial
paper was rated A1/P1/F1, the Bishops Gate Notes were
rated AAA/Aaa/AAA and the Bishops Gate Certificates were
rated BBB/Baa2/BBB by Standard & Poors,
Moodys Investors Service and Fitch Ratings, respectively.
These ratings are largely dependent upon the performance of the
underlying mortgage assets, the maintenance of sufficient levels
of subordinated debt and the timely sale of mortgage loans into
the secondary market. The assets of Bishops Gate are not
available to pay our general obligations. The availability of
this asset-backed debt could suffer in the event of:
(i) the deterioration in the performance of the mortgage
loans underlying the asset-backed debt arrangement;
(ii) our inability to access the asset-backed debt market
to refinance maturing debt; (iii) our inability to access
the secondary market for mortgage loans or (iv) termination
of our role as servicer of the underlying mortgage assets in the
event that (a) we default in the performance of our
servicing obligations, (b) we declare bankruptcy or become
insolvent or (c) our senior unsecured credit ratings fall
below BB+ or Ba1 by Standard and Poors and Moodys
Investors Service, respectively.
We also maintain a $500 million committed mortgage
repurchase facility (the Mortgage Repurchase
Facility) that is used to finance mortgage loans
originated by PHH Mortgage, a wholly owned subsidiary. We
generally use this facility to supplement the capacity of
Bishops Gate and unsecured borrowings used to fund our
mortgage warehouse needs. As of September 30, 2006 and
December 31, 2005, borrowings under this variable-rate
facility were $179 million and $247 million,
respectively. The Mortgage Repurchase Facility was
collateralized by underlying mortgage loans of
$203 million, included in Mortgage loans held for sale, net
in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of
September 30, 2006, and is funded by a multi-seller
conduit. As of September 30, 2006 and December 31,
2005, borrowings under the Mortgage Repurchase Facility bore
interest at 5.4% and 4.3%, respectively. The Mortgage Repurchase
Facility was scheduled to expire on January 12, 2007.
On October 30, 2006, we further amended the Mortgage
Repurchase Facility by executing the Fifth Amended and Restated
Master Repurchase Agreement (the Repurchase
Agreement) and the Servicing Agreement (together with the
Repurchase Agreement, the Amended Repurchase
Agreements). The Amended Repurchase Agreements increased
the capacity of the Mortgage Repurchase Facility from
$500 million to $750 million, expanded the eligibility
of underlying mortgage loan collateral and modified certain
other covenants and terms. The Mortgage Repurchase Facility as
amended by the Amended Repurchase Agreements expires on
October 29, 2007 and is renewable on an annual basis,
subject to agreement by the parties. The assets collateralizing
this facility are not available to pay our general obligations.
On June 1, 2006, the Mortgage Venture entered into a
$350 million repurchase facility (the Mortgage
Venture Repurchase Facility) with Bank of Montreal and
Barclays Bank PLC as Bank Principals and Fairway Finance
Company, LLC and Sheffield Receivables Corporation as Conduit
Principals. Borrowings outstanding under the Mortgage Venture
Repurchase Facility were $268 million and were
collateralized by underlying mortgage loans and related assets
of $330 million, primarily included in Mortgage loans held
for sale, net in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance
Sheet as of September 30, 2006. The cost of the facility is
based upon the commercial paper issued by the Conduit Principals
plus a program fee of 30 bps, which was 5.4% as of
September 30, 2006. In addition, the Mortgage Venture pays
an annual liquidity fee of 20 bps on 102% of the program
size. The maturity date for this facility is June 1, 2009,
subject to annual renewals of certain underlying conduit
liquidity arrangements.
The Mortgage Venture maintains a secured line of credit
agreement with Barclays Bank PLC, Bank of Montreal and JPMorgan
Chase Bank, N.A. that is used to finance mortgage loans
originated by the Mortgage Venture. During the second quarter of
2006, the capacity of this line of credit was reduced from
$350 million to $200 million following the execution
of the Mortgage Venture Repurchase Facility. Borrowings
outstanding under this line of credit were $106 million and
$177 million as of September 30, 2006 and
December 31, 2005,
78
respectively, and, as of September 30, 2006, were
collateralized by underlying mortgage loans and related assets
of $122 million, primarily included in Mortgage loans held
for sale, net in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance
Sheet. During the third quarter of 2006, the expiration date of
this agreement was extended to January 3, 2007, and on
December 21, 2006, it was extended again to October 5,
2007. This variable-rate credit agreement bore interest at 6.2%
and 5.2% on September 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005,
respectively.
As of September 30, 2006, the total capacity under mortgage
warehouse asset-backed debt arrangements was approximately
$3.0 billion, and we had approximately $1.5 billion of
unused capacity available.
Unsecured
Debt
The public debt markets are a key source of financing for us,
due to their efficiency and low cost relative to certain other
sources of financing. Typically, we access these markets by
issuing unsecured commercial paper and medium-term notes. As of
September 30, 2006, we had a total of approximately
$1.2 billion in unsecured public debt outstanding. Our
maintenance of investment grade ratings as an independent
company is a significant factor in preserving our access to the
public debt markets. Our credit ratings as of March 27,
2007 were as follows:
|

|
|

|
On January 22, 2007, Standard & Poors
removed our debt ratings from CreditWatch Negative and
downgraded its rating on our senior unsecured long-term debt
from BBB to BBB- and our short-term debt from
A-2 to
A-3. As of
February 28, 2007, the ratings outlooks on our senior
unsecured long-term debt provided by Moodys Investors
Service and Standard & Poors were Negative and
Fitch Ratings was Rating Watch Negative.
On March 15, 2007 following the announcement of the Merger,
our senior unsecured long-term debt ratings were placed under
review for upgrade by Moodys Investor Services, on
CreditWatch with positive implications by Standard &
Poors and on Rating Watch Positive by Fitch Ratings. There
can be no assurance that the ratings and ratings outlooks on our
senior unsecured long-term debt and other debt will remain at
these levels.
Among other things, maintenance of our investment grade ratings
requires that we demonstrate high levels of liquidity, including
access to alternative sources of funding such as committed bank
stand-by lines of credit, as well as a capital structure and
leverage appropriate for companies in our industry. A security
rating is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold securities
and is subject to revision or withdrawal by the assigning rating
organization. Each rating should be evaluated independently of
any other rating.
In the event our credit ratings were to drop below investment
grade, our access to the public debt markets may be severely
limited. The cutoff for investment grade is generally considered
to be a long-term rating of Baa3, BBB- and BBB- for Moodys
Investors Service, Standard & Poors and Fitch
Ratings, respectively. In the event of a ratings downgrade below
investment grade, we may be required to rely upon alternative
sources of financing, such as bank lines and private debt
placements (secured and unsecured). A drop in our credit ratings
could also increase our cost of borrowing under our credit
facilities. Furthermore, we may be unable to retain all of our
existing bank credit commitments beyond the then existing
maturity dates. As a consequence, our cost of financing could
rise significantly, thereby negatively impacting our ability to
finance some of our capital-intensive activities, such as our
ongoing investment in MSRs and other retained interests.
Term
Notes
The outstanding carrying value of term notes at
September 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005 consisted of
$644 million and $1.1 billion, respectively, of
medium-term notes (the MTNs) publicly issued under
the Indenture, dated as of November 6, 2000 (as amended and
supplemented, the MTN Indenture) by and between PHH
and J.P. Morgan Trust Company, N.A., as successor trustee
for Bank One Trust Company, N.A. (the MTN Indenture
Trustee) that mature between January 2007 and April 2018.
On September 14, 2006, we concluded a
79
tender offer and consent solicitation (the Offer)
for MTNs issued under the MTN Indenture. We received consents on
behalf of $585 million and tenders and consents on behalf
of $416 million of the aggregate notional principal amount
of the $1.1 billion of the MTNs. Borrowings of
$415 million were drawn under our Tender Support Facility
(defined and described below) to fund the bulk of the tendered
MTNs. The effective rate of interest for the MTNs outstanding as
of both September 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005 was
6.8%.
Commercial
Paper
Our policy is to maintain available capacity under our committed
credit facilities (described below) to fully support our
outstanding unsecured commercial paper. We had unsecured
commercial paper obligations of $582 million and
$747 million as of September 30, 2006 and
December 31, 2005, respectively. This commercial paper is
fixed-rate and matures within 270 days of issuance. The
weighted-average interest rate on outstanding unsecured
commercial paper as of September 30, 2006 and
December 31, 2005 was 5.6% and 4.7%, respectively.
Credit
Facilities
As of December 31, 2005, we were party to a
$1.25 billion Three Year Competitive Advance and Revolving
Credit Agreement (the Credit Facility), dated as of
June 28, 2004 and amended as of December 21, 2004,
among PHH Corporation, a group of lenders and JPMorgan Chase
Bank, N.A., as administrative agent. On January 6, 2006, we
entered into the Amended and Restated Competitive Advance and
Revolving Credit Agreement (the Amended Credit
Facility), among PHH Corporation, a group of lenders and
JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent, which
increased the capacity of the Credit Facility from
$1.25 billion to $1.30 billion, extended the
termination date from June 28, 2007 to January 6, 2011
and created a $50 million United States dollar equivalent
Canadian
sub-facility,
which is available to our Fleet Management Services operations
in Canada. Pricing under the Amended Credit Facility is based
upon our senior unsecured long-term debt ratings. If the ratings
on our senior unsecured long-term debt assigned by Moodys
Investors Service, Standard & Poors and Fitch
Ratings are not equivalent to each other, the second highest
credit rating assigned by them determines pricing under the
Amended Credit Facility. Borrowings under the Amended Credit
Facility bore interest at LIBOR plus a margin of 38 bps as
of September 30, 2006. The Amended Credit Facility also
requires us to pay utilization fees if our usage exceeds 50% of
the aggregate commitments under the Amended Credit Facility and
per annum facility fees. As of September 30, 2006, the per
annum utilization and facility fees were 10 bps and
12 bps, respectively. As discussed above, on
January 22, 2007, Standard & Poors
downgraded its rating on our senior unsecured long-term debt to
BBB-. As a result, borrowings under our Amended Credit Facility
after the downgrade bear interest at LIBOR plus a margin of
47.5 bps. In addition, the per annum utilization and
facility fees were increased to 12.5 bps and 15 bps,
respectively. In the event that both of our second highest and
lowest credit ratings are downgraded in the future, the margin
over LIBOR would become 70 bps, the utilization fee would
remain 12.5 bps and the facility fee would become 17.5 bps.
Borrowings under the Amended Credit Facility were
$291 million as of September 30, 2006. There were no
borrowings under the Credit Facility as of December 31,
2005.
On April 6, 2006, we entered into a $500 million
unsecured revolving credit agreement (the Supplemental
Credit Facility) with a group of lenders and JPMorgan
Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent, that was scheduled to
expire on April 5, 2007. Borrowings under the Supplemental
Credit Facility were $325 million as of September 30,
2006. Pricing under the Supplemental Credit Facility is based
upon our senior unsecured long-term debt ratings. If the ratings
on our senior unsecured long-term debt assigned by Moodys
Investors Service, Standard & Poors and Fitch
Ratings are not equivalent to each other, the second highest
credit rating assigned by them determines pricing under the
Supplemental Credit Facility. Borrowings under the Supplemental
Credit Facility bore interest at LIBOR plus a margin of
38 bps as of September 30, 2006. The Supplemental
Credit Facility also requires us to pay per annum utilization
fees if our usage exceeds 50% of the aggregate commitments under
the Supplemental Credit Facility and per annum facility fees. As
of September 30, 2006, the per annum utilization and
facility fees were 10 bps and 12 bps, respectively. We
were also required to pay an additional facility fee of
10 bps against the outstanding commitments under the
facility as of October 6, 2006. As discussed above, on
January 22, 2007, Standard & Poors
downgraded its rating on our senior unsecured long-term debt to
BBB-. As a result, borrowings under our Supplemental Credit
Facility after the downgrade bore interest at LIBOR plus a
margin of 47.5 bps. In addition, the per annum utilization
and facility fees were increased to 12.5 bps and
15 bps, respectively.
80
On February 22, 2007, the Supplemental Credit Facility was
amended to extend its expiration date to December 15, 2007,
reduce total commitments to $200 million and modify the
interest rates paid on outstanding borrowings. Pricing is based
upon our senior unsecured long-term debt ratings. If the ratings
on our senior unsecured long-term debt assigned by Moodys
Investors Service and Standard & Poors are not
equivalent to each other, the higher credit rating assigned by
them determines pricing under the agreement, unless there is
more than one rating level difference between the two ratings,
in which case the rating one level below the higher rating is
applied. As a result of this amendment, borrowings under the
Supplemental Credit Facility bear interest at LIBOR plus a
margin of 82.5 bps and the annum facility fee is
17.5 bps. The amendment eliminated the per annum
utilization fee. In the event that both of the Moodys
Investors Service and Standard & Poors ratings
are downgraded in the future, the margin over LIBOR would become
127.5 bps and the per annum facility fee would become
22.5 bps.
On July 21, 2006, we entered into a $750 million
unsecured credit agreement (the Tender Support
Facility) with a group of lenders and JPMorgan Chase Bank,
N.A., as administrative agent, that was scheduled to expire on
April 5, 2007. The Tender Support Facility provided
$750 million of capacity solely for the repayment of the
MTNs, and was put in place in conjunction with the Offer.
Borrowings under the Tender Support Facility were
$415 million as of September 30, 2006. Pricing under
the Tender Support Facility is based upon our senior unsecured
long-term debt ratings assigned by Moodys Investors
Service and Standard & Poors. If those ratings
are not equivalent to each other, the higher credit rating
assigned by them determines pricing under this agreement, unless
there is more than one rating level difference between the two
ratings, in which case the rating one level below the higher
rating is applied. Borrowings under this agreement bore interest
at LIBOR plus a margin of 60 bps on or before
December 14, 2006 and 75 bps from December 15,
2006 until Standard & Poors downgraded its rating
on our senior unsecured debt on January 22, 2007. The
Tender Support Facility also required us to pay an initial fee
of 10 bps of the commitment and a per annum commitment fee of
12 bps prior to the downgrade. In addition, we paid a
one-time fee of 15 bps against borrowings of
$415 million drawn under the Tender Support Facility. As
discussed above, on January 22, 2007, Standard &
Poors downgraded its rating on our senior unsecured
long-term debt to BBB-. As a result, borrowings under our Tender
Support Facility after the downgrade bore interest at LIBOR plus
a margin of 100 bps and the per annum commitment fee was
increased to 17.5 bps.
On February 22, 2007, the Tender Support Facility was
amended to extend its expiration date to December 15, 2007,
reduce total commitments to $415 million and modify the
interest rates paid on outstanding borrowings. As a result of
this amendment, borrowings under the Tender Support Facility
bear interest at LIBOR plus a margin of 100 bps. The
amendment eliminated the per annum commitment fee. In the event
that both of the Moodys Investors Service and
Standard & Poors ratings are downgraded in the
future, the margin over LIBOR would become 150 bps.
We maintain other unsecured credit facilities in the ordinary
course of business as set forth in Debt Maturities
below.

respective agreements. With respect to asset-backed funding
arrangements, capacity may be further limited by the
availability of asset eligibility requirements under the
respective agreements. |

Available capacity reflects a reduction in availability due to
an allocation against the facilities of $582 million which
fully supports the outstanding unsecured commercial paper issued
by us as of September 30, 2006. Under our policy, all of
the outstanding unsecured commercial paper is supported by
available capacity under our unsecured committed credit
facilities. In addition, utilized capacity reflects
$2 million of letters of credit issued under the Amended
Credit Facility. |
Beginning on March 16, 2006, access to our shelf
registration statement for public debt issuances was no longer
available due to our non-current filing status with the SEC.
Debt
Covenants
Certain of our debt arrangements require the maintenance of
certain financial ratios and contain restrictive covenants,
including, but not limited to, restrictions on indebtedness of
material subsidiaries, mergers, liens, liquidations and sale and
leaseback transactions. The Amended Credit Facility, the
Supplemental Credit Facility and the Tender Support Facility
require that we maintain: (i) on the last day of each
fiscal quarter, net worth of $1.0 billion plus 25% of net
income, if positive, for each fiscal quarter ended after
December 31, 2004 and (ii) at any time, a ratio of
indebtedness to tangible net worth no greater than 10:1. The MTN
Indenture requires that we maintain a debt to tangible equity
ratio of not more than 10:1. The MTN Indenture also restricts us
from paying dividends if, after giving effect to the dividend,
the debt to equity ratio exceeds 6.5:1. At September 30,
2006, we were in compliance with all of our financial covenants
related to our debt arrangements. (See below for further
discussion of compliance with our debt covenants.)
Under many of our financing, servicing, hedging and related
agreements and instruments (collectively, our Financing
Agreements), we are required to provide consolidated
and/or
subsidiary-level audited annual financial statements, unaudited
quarterly financial statements and related documents. The delay
in completing the 2005 audited financial statements, the
restatement of financial results for periods prior to the
quarter ended December 31, 2005 and the delay in completing
the unaudited quarterly financial statements for 2006 created
the potential for breaches under certain of the Financing
Agreements for failure to deliver the financial statements
and/or
documents by specified deadlines, as well as potential breaches
of other covenants.
82
On March 17, 2006, we obtained waivers under our Amended
Credit Facility and our Bishops Gate Liquidity Agreement
which extended the deadlines for the delivery of our 2005 annual
audited financial statements, our unaudited financial statements
for the quarter ended March 31, 2006 and related documents
to June 15, 2006 and waived certain other potential
breaches.
On May 26, 2006, we obtained waivers under our Supplemental
Credit Facility and our Amended Credit Facility which extended
the deadlines for the delivery of our 2005 annual audited
financial statements, our unaudited financial statements for the
quarters ended March 31, 2006 and June 30, 2006 and
related documents to September 30, 2006 and waived certain
other potential breaches.
On July 12, 2006, Bishops Gate received a notice (the
Notice), dated July 10, 2006, from the
Bishops Gate Trustee, that certain events of default had
occurred under the Bishops Gate Indenture. The Notice
indicated that events of default occurred as a result of
Bishops Gates failure to provide the Bishops
Gate Trustee with our and certain other audited and unaudited
quarterly financial statements as required under the
Bishops Gate Indenture. While the Notice further informed
the holders of the Bishops Gate Notes of these events of
default, the Notice received did not constitute a notice of
acceleration of repayment of the Bishops Gate Notes. The
Notice created an event of default under the Bishops Gate
Liquidity Agreement. We sought waivers of any events of default
from the holders of the Bishops Gate Notes as well as the
lenders under the Bishops Gate Liquidity Agreement.
As of August 15, 2006, we received all of the required
approvals and executed a Supplemental Indenture to the
Bishops Gate Indenture waiving any event of default
arising as a result of the failure to provide the Bishops
Gate Trustee with our 2005 annual audited financial statements,
our unaudited financial statements for the quarters ended
March 31, 2006 and June 30, 2006 and certain other
documents as required under the Bishops Gate Indenture.
This Supplemental Indenture also extended the deadline for the
delivery of the required financial statements to the
Bishops Gate Trustee and the rating agencies to the
earlier of December 31, 2006 or the date on or after
September 30, 2006 by which such financial statements were
required to be delivered to the bank group under the
Bishops Gate Liquidity Agreement. Also effective on
August 15, 2006 was a related waiver of any default under
the Bishops Gate Liquidity Agreement caused by the Notice
under the Bishops Gate Indenture for failure to deliver
the required financial statements.
Upon receipt of the required consents related to the Offer on
September 14, 2006, Supplemental Indenture No. 4 to
the MTN Indenture (Supplemental Indenture
No. 4), dated August 31, 2006, between us and
the MTN Indenture Trustee became effective. Supplemental
Indenture No. 4 extended the deadline for the delivery of
our financial statements for the year ended December 31,
2005, the quarterly periods ended March 31, 2006,
June 30, 2006 and September 30, 2006 and related
documents to December 31, 2006. In addition, Supplemental
Indenture No. 4 provided for the waiver of all defaults
that occurred prior to August 31, 2006 relating to our
financial statements and other delivery requirements.
On September 19, 2006, we obtained waivers under our
Amended Credit Facility, Supplemental Credit Facility, our
Tender Support Facility and our Bishops Gate Liquidity
Agreement which extended the deadline for the delivery of our
2005 annual audited financial statements and related documents
to November 30, 2006. The waivers also extended the
deadline for the delivery of our unaudited financial statements
for the quarters ended March 31, 2006, June 30, 2006
and September 30, 2006 and related documents to
December 29, 2006.
During the fourth quarter of 2006, we obtained additional
waivers under the Amended Credit Facility, the Supplemental
Credit Facility, the Tender Support Facility, the Amended
Repurchase Agreements, the financing agreements for Chesapeake
and Bishops Gate and other agreements which waive certain
potential breaches of covenants under those instruments and
extend the deadlines (the Extended Deadlines) for
the delivery of our financial statements and related documents
to the various lenders under those instruments. With respect to
the delivery of our quarterly financial statements for the
quarters ended March 31, 2006 and June 30, 2006, the
Extended Deadline was March 30, 2007. The Extended Deadline
for the delivery of our quarterly financial statements for the
quarter ended September 30, 2006 is April 30, 2007.
The Extended Deadline for the delivery of our financial
statements for the year ended December 31, 2006 and the
quarter ended March 31, 2007 is June 29, 2007.
83
We may require additional waivers in the future if we are unable
to meet the deadlines for the delivery of our financial
statements. If we are not able to deliver our financial
statements by the deadlines, we intend to negotiate with the
lenders and trustees to the Financing Agreements to extend the
existing waivers. Our independent registered public accounting
firms audit report with respect to the Consolidated
Financial Statements included in our 2005
Form 10-K
contained an explanatory paragraph stating that the uncertainty
about our ability to comply with certain of our Financing
Agreements covenants relating to the timely filing of our
financial statements raises substantial doubt about our ability
to continue as a going concern.
If we are unable to obtain sufficient extensions and financial
statements are not delivered timely, the lenders have the right
to demand payment of amounts due under the Financing Agreements
either immediately or after a specified grace period. In
addition, because of cross-default provisions, amounts owed
under other borrowing arrangements may become due or, in the
case of asset-backed debt arrangements, new borrowings may be
precluded. Since repayments are required on asset-backed debt
arrangements as cash inflows are received relating to the
securitized assets, new borrowings are necessary for us to
continue normal operations. Therefore, unless we can obtain any
necessary further extensions or negotiate alternative borrowing
arrangements, the uncertainty about our ability to meet our
financial statement delivery requirements raises substantial
doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
Under certain of our Financing Agreements, the lenders or
trustees have the right to notify us if they believe we have
breached a covenant under the operative documents and may
declare an event of default. If one or more notices of default
were to be given, we believe we would have various periods in
which to cure such events of default. If we do not cure the
events of default or obtain necessary waivers within the
required time periods or certain extended time periods, the
maturity of some of our debt could be accelerated and our
ability to incur additional indebtedness could be restricted. In
addition, events of default or acceleration under certain of our
Financing Agreements would trigger cross-default provisions
under certain of our other Financing Agreements. We have not yet
delivered our financial statements for the year ended
December 31, 2006 to the MTN Indenture Trustee, which were
required to be delivered no later than March 16, 2007 under
the MTN Indenture. The MTN Indenture Trustee could provide us
with a notice of default for our failure to deliver these
financial statements. In the event that we receive such notice,
we would have 90 days from receipt to cure this default or
to seek additional waivers of the financial statement delivery
requirements under the MTN Indenture. No assurances can be given
that we will be able to deliver the required financial
statements within the cure period or that additional waivers
will be obtained.
We also obtained certain waivers and may need to seek additional
waivers extending the date for the delivery of the financial
statements of our subsidiaries and other documents related to
such financial statements to certain regulators, investors in
mortgage loans and other third parties in order to satisfy state
mortgage licensing regulations and certain contractual
requirements. We will continue to seek similar waivers as may be
necessary in the future.
There can be no assurance that any additional waivers will be
received on a timely basis, if at all, or that any waivers
obtained, including the waivers we have already obtained, will
extend for a sufficient period of time to avoid an acceleration
event, an event of default or other restrictions on our business
operations. The failure to obtain such waivers could have a
material and adverse effect on our business, liquidity and
financial condition.
Off-Balance
Sheet Arrangements and Guarantees
In the ordinary course of business, we enter into numerous
agreements that contain standard guarantees and indemnities
whereby we indemnify another party for breaches of
representations and warranties. Such guarantees or
indemnifications are granted under various agreements, including
those governing leases of real estate, access to credit
facilities and use of derivatives and issuances of debt or
equity securities. The guarantees or indemnifications issued are
for the benefit of the buyers in sale agreements and sellers in
purchase agreements, landlords in lease contracts, financial
institutions in credit facility arrangements and derivative
contracts and underwriters in debt or equity security issuances.
While some of these guarantees extend only for the duration of
the underlying agreement, many survive the expiration of the
term of the agreement or extend into perpetuity (unless subject
to a legal statute of limitations). There are no specific
limitations on the maximum potential amount of future payments
that we could be required to make under these guarantees, and we
are unable to
84
develop an estimate of the maximum potential amount of future
payments to be made under these guarantees, if any, as the
triggering events are not subject to predictability. With
respect to certain of the aforementioned guarantees, such as
indemnifications of landlords against third-party claims for the
use of real estate property leased by us, we maintain insurance
coverage that mitigates any potential payments to be made.
Critical
Accounting Policies
There have not been any significant changes to the critical
accounting policies discussed under Item 7.
Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations Critical
Accounting Policies of our 2005
Form 10-K,
except as discussed below.
Mortgage
Servicing Rights
Effective January 1, 2006, we adopted
SFAS No. 156, Accounting for Servicing of
Financial Assets (SFAS No. 156).
SFAS No. 156: (i) clarifies when a servicing
asset or servicing liability should be recognized;
(ii) requires all separately recognized servicing assets
and servicing liabilities to be initially measured at fair
value, if practicable; (iii) subsequent to initial
measurement, permits an entity to choose either the amortization
method or the fair value measurement method for each class of
separately recognized servicing assets or servicing liabilities
and (iv) at its initial adoption, permits a one-time
reclassification of
available-for-sale
securities to trading securities by entities with recognized
servicing rights.
As a result of adopting SFAS No. 156, servicing rights
created through the sale of originated loans are recorded at the
fair value of the servicing right on the date of sale whereas
prior to the adoption, the servicing rights were recorded based
on the relative fair values of the loans sold and the servicing
rights retained. We have elected the fair value measurement
method for subsequently measuring our servicing rights. The
election of the fair value measurement method will subject our
earnings to increases and decreases in the value of our
servicing assets. Previously, servicing rights were
(i) carried at the lower of cost or fair value based on
defined strata, (ii) amortized in proportion to estimated
net servicing income and (iii) evaluated for impairment at
least quarterly. The effects of measuring servicing rights at
fair value after the adoption of SFAS No. 156 are
recorded in Change in fair value of mortgage servicing rights in
our Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations for the three
and nine months ended September 30, 2006. The effects of
carrying servicing rights at the lower of cost or fair value
prior to the adoption of SFAS No. 156 are recorded in
Amortization and recovery of impairment of mortgage servicing
rights in our Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations for
the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005.
The adoption of SFAS No. 156 on January 1, 2006
did not have a material impact on our Condensed Consolidated
Financial Statements as all of the servicing asset strata were
impaired as of December 31, 2005.

Item 3.
|
Quantitative
and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
|
Our principal market exposure is to interest rate risk,
specifically long-term Treasury and mortgage interest rates due
to their impact on mortgage-related assets and commitments. We
also have exposure to LIBOR and commercial paper interest rates
due to their impact on variable-rate borrowings, other interest
rate sensitive liabilities and net investment in variable-rate
lease assets. We anticipate that such interest rates will remain
a primary market risk for the foreseeable future.
85
Interest
Rate Risk
Mortgage
Servicing Rights
Our MSRs are subject to substantial interest rate risk as the
mortgage notes underlying the MSRs permit the borrowers to
prepay the loans. Therefore, the value of the MSRs tends to
diminish in periods of declining interest rates (as prepayments
increase) and increase in periods of rising interest rates (as
prepayments decrease). We use a combination of derivative
instruments to offset potential adverse changes in the fair
value of our MSRs that could affect reported earnings.
Other
Mortgage-Related Assets
Our other mortgage-related assets are subject to interest rate
and price risk created by (i) our commitments to fund
mortgages to borrowers who have applied for loan funding and
(ii) loans held in inventory awaiting sale into the
secondary market (which are presented as Mortgage loans held for
sale, net in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance
Sheets). We use a combination of forward delivery commitments
and option contracts to economically hedge our commitments to
fund mortgages. Interest rate and price risk related to MLHS are
hedged with mortgage forward delivery commitments. These forward
delivery commitments fix the forward sales price that will be
realized in the secondary market and thereby reduce the interest
rate and price risk to us.
Indebtedness
The debt used to finance much of our operations is also exposed
to interest rate fluctuations. We use various hedging strategies
and derivative financial instruments to create a desired mix of
fixed- and variable-rate assets and liabilities. Derivative
instruments used in these hedging strategies include swaps,
interest rate caps and instruments with purchase option features.
Consumer
Credit Risk
Conforming conventional loans serviced by us are securitized
through Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac programs. Such servicing is
performed on a non-recourse basis, whereby foreclosure losses
are generally the responsibility of Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac.
The government loans serviced by us are generally securitized
through Ginnie Mae programs. These government loans are either
insured against loss by the Federal Housing Administration or
partially guaranteed against loss by the Department of Veterans
Affairs. Additionally, jumbo mortgage loans are serviced for
various investors on a non-recourse basis.
While the majority of the mortgage loans serviced by us are sold
without recourse, we have a program in which we provide credit
enhancement for a limited period of time to the purchasers of
mortgage loans by retaining a portion of the credit risk. The
retained credit risk, which represents the unpaid principal
balance of the loans, was $3.7 billion as of
September 30, 2006. In addition, the outstanding balance of
loans sold with recourse by us was $608 million as of
September 30, 2006.
We also provide representations and warranties to purchasers and
insurers of the loans sold. In the event of a breach of these
representations and warranties, we may be required to repurchase
a mortgage loan or indemnify the purchaser, and any subsequent
loss on the mortgage loan may be borne by us. If there is no
breach of a representation and warranty provision, we have no
obligation to repurchase the loan or indemnify the investor
against loss. Our owned servicing portfolio represents the
maximum potential exposure related to representations and
warranty provisions.
As of September 30, 2006, we had a liability of
$28 million, recorded in Other liabilities in our Condensed
Consolidated Balance Sheet, for probable losses related to our
loan servicing portfolio.
Through our wholly owned mortgage reinsurance subsidiary,
Atrium, we have entered into contracts with several primary
mortgage insurance companies to provide mortgage reinsurance on
certain mortgage loans in our loan servicing portfolio. Through
these contracts, we are exposed to losses on mortgage loans
pooled by year of origination. Loss rates on these pools are
determined based on the unpaid principal balance of the
underlying
86
loans. We indemnify the primary mortgage insurers for loss rates
that fall between a stated minimum and maximum. In return for
absorbing this loss exposure, we are contractually entitled to a
portion of the insurance premium from the primary mortgage
insurers. As of September 30, 2006, we provided such
mortgage reinsurance for approximately $18.4 billion of
mortgage loans in our servicing portfolio. As stated above, our
contracts with the primary mortgage insurers limit our maximum
potential exposure to reinsurance losses, which was
$715 million as of September 30, 2006. We are required
to hold securities in trust related to this potential
obligation, which were included in Restricted Cash in the
accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of
September 30, 2006. As of September 30, 2006, a
liability of $17 million was recorded in Other liabilities
in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet for estimated losses
associated with our mortgage reinsurance activities.
Commercial
Credit Risk
We are exposed to commercial credit risk for our clients under
the lease and service agreements for PHH Arval. We manage such
risk through an evaluation of the financial position and
creditworthiness of the client, which is performed on at least
an annual basis. The lease agreements allow PHH Arval to refuse
any additional orders; however, PHH Arval would remain obligated
for all units under contract at that time. The service
agreements can generally be terminated upon 30 days written
notice. PHH Arval has no significant client concentrations as no
client represents more than 5% of the Net revenues of the
business during the year ended December 31, 2005. PHH
Arvals historical net losses as a percentage of the ending
dollar amount of leases have not exceeded 0.07% in any of the
last five fiscal years.
Counterparty
Credit Risk
We are exposed to counterparty credit risk in the event of
non-performance by counterparties to various agreements and
sales transactions. We manage such risk by evaluating the
financial position and creditworthiness of such counterparties
and/or
requiring collateral, typically cash, in instances in which
financing is provided. We mitigate counterparty credit risk
associated with our derivative contracts by monitoring the
amount for which we are at risk with each counterparty to such
contracts, requiring collateral posting, typically cash, above
established credit limits, periodically evaluating counterparty
creditworthiness and financial position, and where possible,
dispersing the risk among multiple counterparties.
As of September 30, 2006, there were no significant
concentrations of credit risk with any individual counterparty
or groups of counterparties. Concentrations of credit risk
associated with receivables are considered minimal due to our
diverse customer base. With the exception of the financing
provided to customers of our mortgage business, we do not
normally require collateral or other security to support credit
sales.
Sensitivity
Analysis
We assess our market risk based on changes in interest rates
utilizing a sensitivity analysis. The sensitivity analysis
measures the potential impact on fair values based on
hypothetical changes (increases and decreases) in interest rates.
We use a duration-based model in determining the impact of
interest rate shifts on our debt portfolio, certain other
interest-bearing liabilities and interest rate derivatives
portfolios. The primary assumption used in these models is that
an increase or decrease in the benchmark interest rate produces
a parallel shift in the yield curve across all maturities.
We utilize a probability weighted option adjusted spread
(OAS) model to determine the fair value of MSRs and
the impact of parallel interest rate shifts on MSRs. The primary
assumptions in this model are prepayment speeds, OAS (discount
rate) and implied volatility. However, this analysis ignores the
impact of interest rate changes on certain material variables,
such as the benefit or detriment on the value of future loan
originations and non-parallel shifts in the spread relationships
between MBS, swaps and Treasury rates. For mortgage loans,
IRLCs, forward delivery commitments and options, we rely on
market sources in determining the impact of interest rate
shifts. In addition, for IRLCs, the borrowers propensity
to close their mortgage loans under the commitment is used as a
primary assumption.
87
Our total market risk is influenced by a wide variety of factors
including market volatility and the liquidity of the markets.
There are certain limitations inherent in the sensitivity
analysis presented, including the necessity to conduct the
analysis based on a single point in time and the inability to
include the complex market reactions that normally would arise
from the market shifts modeled.
We used September 30, 2006 market rates on our instruments
to perform the sensitivity analysis. The estimates are based on
the market risk sensitive portfolios described in the preceding
paragraphs and assume instantaneous, parallel shifts in interest
rate yield curves.
The following table summarizes the estimated change in the fair
value of our assets and liabilities sensitive to interest rates
as of September 30, 2006 given hypothetical instantaneous
parallel shifts in the yield curve:

Controls
and Procedures
|
Disclosure
Controls and Procedures
As of the end of the period covered by this
Form 10-Q,
management performed, with the participation of our Chief
Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, an evaluation of
the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as
defined in
Rules 13a-15(e)
and
15d-15(e) of
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the
Exchange Act). Our disclosure controls and
procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance that
information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or
submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized
and reported within the time periods specified in the SECs
rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and
communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive
Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions
regarding required disclosures. As part of this evaluation, our
management considered the material weaknesses described in our
2005
Form 10-K
filed with the SEC on November 22, 2006 and our quarterly
reports on
Form 10-Q
for the quarters ended March 31, 2006 and June 30,
2006. Based on the evaluation and the identification of the
material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting
described in the 2005
Form 10-K
and our quarterly reports on
Form 10-Q
for the quarters ended March 31, 2006 and June 30,
2006, as well as our inability to file this
Form 10-Q
within the statutory time period, management concluded that our
disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of
September 30, 2006.
88
Management, with the participation of our Chief Executive
Officer and Chief Financial Officer, assessed the effectiveness
of our internal control over financial reporting as of
December 31, 2005 as required under Section 404 of the
Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (SOX). A material
weakness is a control deficiency (within the meaning of Public
Company Accounting Oversight Board Auditing Standard
No. 2), or combination of control deficiencies, that
results in there being more than a remote likelihood that a
material misstatement of the annual or interim financial
statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis
by employees in the normal course of their assigned functions.
As more fully set forth in Item 9A. Controls and
Procedures, of the 2005
Form 10-K,
although management was unable to complete its review and
testing of certain information technology controls, it
identified five material weaknesses (the 2005 Material
Weaknesses) and concluded that our internal control over
financial reporting was not effective as of December 31,
2005.
In conducting its assessment of internal control over financial
reporting as of December 31, 2005, management was unable to
complete its review and testing of certain controls for
information technology systems operated by a third party and
provided in support of our financial reporting, general ledger,
accounts payable, accounts receivable, customer billing and
human resource and payroll system processes (the
Outsourced IT Services). Pursuant to our transition
services agreement, dated January 31, 2005 with Cendant,
Cendant provided certain information technology services to us
following the Spin-Off, including maintaining the software,
databases and servers for the Outsourced IT Services. The
servers were housed in a data center operated by a third party
with whom we did not have a separate contractual arrangement. In
addition, we did not complete all necessary testing of our
internal controls over the human resource and payroll processes
(the HR Processes) in 2005 prior to a material
change in our control environment resulting from the transition
of the HR Processes from Cendant to a third-party payroll
processing provider, effective January 1, 2006, and were
unable to recreate this control environment following the
transition. Because we were unable to complete our review and
testing of all the internal controls surrounding the Outsourced
IT Services and HR Processes, there can be no assurance that
there were not additional material weaknesses relating to the
Outsourced IT Services and HR Processes.
Management identified five material weaknesses in our internal
control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2005:
I. We did not have adequate controls in place to establish
and maintain an effective control environment. Specifically, we
identified the following deficiencies that in the aggregate
constituted a material weakness:
|
|
|
|
n
|
Our senior management did not establish and maintain a proper
tone as to internal control over financial reporting.
Specifically, senior management did not emphasize, through
consistent communication, the importance of internal control
over financial reporting.
|
|
|
n
|
We did not maintain a sufficient complement of personnel with
the appropriate level of knowledge, experience and training in
the application of accounting principles generally accepted in
the United States (GAAP) and in internal control
over financial reporting commensurate with our financial
reporting obligations.
|
|
|
n
|
We did not maintain sufficient, formalized and consistent
finance and accounting policies nor did we maintain adequate
controls with respect to the review, supervision and monitoring
of our accounting operations.
|
|
|
n
|
We did not establish and maintain adequate segregation of
duties, assignments and delegation of authority with clear lines
of communication to provide reasonable assurance that we were in
compliance with existing policies and procedures.
|
|
|
n
|
We did not establish and maintain a sufficient internal audit
function and did not complete an adequate fraud risk assessment
to determine the appropriate internal audit scope.
|
The material weakness in our control environment increases the
likelihood of material misstatements of our annual or interim
Consolidated Financial Statements that would not be prevented or
detected and contributed to the existence of the material
weaknesses discussed in the items below.
89
II. We did not maintain effective controls, including
monitoring, to provide reasonable assurance that our financial
closing and reporting process was timely and accurate.
Specifically, we identified the following deficiencies that in
the aggregate constituted a material weakness:
|
|
|
|
n
|
We did not maintain sufficient, formalized written policies and
procedures governing the financial closing and reporting process.
|
|
|
n
|
We did not maintain effective controls to provide reasonable
assurance that management oversight and review procedures were
properly performed over the accounts and disclosures in our
Consolidated Financial Statements. In addition, we did not
maintain effective controls over the reporting of information to
management to provide reasonable assurance that the preparation
of our Consolidated Financial Statements and disclosures were
complete and accurate.
|
|
|
n
|
We did not maintain effective controls over the recording of
journal entries. Specifically, effective controls were not
designed and in place to provide reasonable assurance that
journal entries were prepared with sufficient supporting
documentation and reviewed and approved to provide reasonable
assurance of the completeness and accuracy of the entries
recorded.
|
|
|
n
|
We did not maintain effective controls to provide reasonable
assurance that accounts were complete and accurate and agreed to
detailed supporting documentation and that reconciliations of
accounts were properly performed, reviewed and approved.
|
III. We did not maintain effective controls, including policies
and procedures, over accounting for certain derivative financial
instruments in accordance with SFAS No. 133.
Specifically, we identified the following deficiencies in the
process of accounting for derivative instruments that in the
aggregate constituted a material weakness:
|
|
|
|
n
|
In our transition to an independent, publicly traded company, we
did not implement effective policies and procedures to
transition the responsibilities related to ongoing monitoring of
debt-related derivative transactions and the application of
appropriate accounting for debt-related derivative transactions
to our corporate treasury and accounting functions.
|
|
|
n
|
We did not establish and maintain sufficient policies and
procedures relating to the application of the proper accounting
treatment for derivative financial instruments and we did not
maintain sufficient documentation to meet the criteria for hedge
accounting treatment under SFAS No. 133.
|
|
|
n
|
We did not monitor and maintain adequate documentation relating
to compliance with existing policies and procedures to provide
reasonable assurance of the proper accounting treatment for
derivatives.
|
IV. We did not maintain effective controls, including
policies and procedures, over accounting for contracts.
Specifically, we did not have sufficient policies and procedures
to provide reasonable assurance that contracts were reviewed by
the accounting department to evaluate and document the
appropriate application of GAAP which resulted in a material
weakness related to contract administration.
V. We did not design and maintain effective controls over
accounting for income taxes. Specifically, we identified the
following deficiencies in the process of accounting for income
taxes that in the aggregate constituted a material weakness:
|
|
|
|
n
|
We did not maintain effective policies and procedures to provide
reasonable assurance that management oversight and review
procedures were adequately performed for the proper reporting of
income taxes in our Consolidated Financial Statements.
|
|
|
n
|
We did not maintain effective controls over the calculation,
recording and reconciliation of federal and state income taxes
to provide reasonable assurance of the appropriate accounting
treatment in our Consolidated Financial Statements.
|
90
Because of these material weaknesses identified in our
evaluation of internal control over financial reporting, we
performed additional procedures, where necessary, so that our
Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for the period
covered by this
Form 10-Q
are presented in accordance with GAAP. These procedures
included, among other things, validating data to independent
source documentation; reviewing our existing contracts to
determine proper financial reporting; performing additional
closing procedures, including detailed reviews of journal
entries, re-performance of account reconciliations and analyses
of balance sheet accounts.
We anticipate that our disclosure controls and procedures for
the year ended December 31, 2006 and the quarter ended
March 31, 2007 will be determined not to be effective.
Status
of Managements Assessment of Internal Controls as of
December 31, 2006
We have not completed our assessment of internal control over
financial reporting as of December 31, 2006, as required by
Section 404 of SOX. We have, however, identified a number
of significant deficiencies, some of which, alone or in the
aggregate with other significant deficiencies, have been
classified as material weaknesses by management. Based upon our
evaluation as of the filing date of this
Form 10-Q,
we do not expect to conclude that the 2005 Material Weaknesses
were fully remediated as of December 31, 2006. As a result,
we expect to conclude that our internal control over financial
reporting as of December 31, 2006 was not effective. In
addition to the continuing 2005 Material Weaknesses, we expect
to report that material weaknesses existed as of
December 31, 2006 in the following areas:
I. We did not design and maintain effective controls over
accounting for human resources and payroll processes (HR
Processes). Specifically, management identified the
following deficiencies in the process of accounting for HR
Processes that in the aggregate constituted a material weakness:
|
|
|
|
n
|
We did not maintain effective controls over HR Processes,
including reconciliation and reporting processes, performed by
third-party service providers.
|
|
|
n
|
We did not maintain effective controls over funding
authorization for payroll processes.
|
|
|
n
|
We did not maintain formal, written policies and procedures
governing the HR Processes.
|
II. We did not design and maintain effective controls over
accounting for expenditures.
In addition to the material weaknesses identified above, we are
also evaluating significant deficiencies identified through
managements assessment of internal control over financial
reporting for the 2005
Form 10-K
and other significant deficiencies identified since the date of
that assessment to determine if any such significant
deficiencies were continuing through December 31, 2006. If
any such significant deficiencies continued through
December 31, 2006, we anticipate that we will be required
to identify certain of those significant deficiencies, either
alone or in combination with other significant deficiencies, as
material weaknesses for the year ended December 31, 2006.
Changes
in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
We have engaged in, and continue to engage in, substantial
efforts to address the material weaknesses in our internal
control over financial reporting and the ineffectiveness of our
disclosure controls and procedures. During the three months
ended September 30, 2006, the following changes to our
internal control over financial reporting were made:
|
|
|
|
n
|
We engaged outside consultants and hired additional
professionals in our finance, accounting and tax departments in
order to address the delay in the preparation of our financial
statements.
|
|
|
n
|
We formed a SOX steering committee to implement and oversee our
2006 SOX assessment process. The committee meets regularly to
review significant findings and resolve issues and has retained
a big four accounting firm to serve as our internal audit
co-source provider for 2006 and another to serve as our SOX
advisor. Our SOX steering committee reports its progress and
summary results to the Audit Committee on
|
91
|
|
|
|
|
a periodic basis. We also initiated periodic communications from
senior management regarding the importance of adherence to
internal controls and company policies.
|
|
|
|
|
n
|
We also expanded our Disclosure Committee and developed a
management confirmation process requiring individual control
owners to verify the results of managements SOX assessment
on a quarterly basis in support of our management representation
process.
|
Our continuing remediation efforts are subject to our internal
control assessment, testing and evaluation processes. While
these efforts continue, we will rely on additional substantive
procedures and other measures as needed to assist us with
meeting the objectives otherwise fulfilled by an effective
control environment.
There have been no other changes in our internal control over
financial reporting during the three months ended
September 30, 2006 that have materially affected, or are
reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control
over financial reporting.
PART II
OTHER INFORMATION
|
|
Item 1.
|
Legal
Proceedings
|
We are party to various claims and legal proceedings from time
to time related to contract disputes and other commercial,
employment and tax matters. Except as disclosed below, we are
not aware of any legal proceedings that we believe could have,
individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse effect on
our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
In March and April 2006, several class actions were filed
against us, our Chief Executive Officer and our former Chief
Financial Officer in the United States District Court for the
District of New Jersey. The plaintiffs purport to represent a
class consisting of all persons (other than our officers and
Directors and their affiliates) who purchased our Common stock
during certain time periods beginning March 15, 2005 in one
case and May 12, 2005 in the other cases and ending
March 1, 2006 (the Class Period). The
plaintiffs allege, among other things, that the defendants
violated Section 10(b) of the Exchange Act and
Rule 10b-5
thereunder. Additionally, two derivative actions were filed in
the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey
against us, our former Chief Financial Officer and each member
of our Board of Directors. One of these derivative actions has
since been voluntarily dismissed by the plaintiffs. The
remaining derivative action alleges breaches of fiduciary duty
and related claims based on substantially the same factual
allegations as in the class action suits.
Following the announcement of the Merger in March 2007, two
class actions were filed against us and each member of our Board
of Directors in the Circuit Court for Baltimore County,
Maryland; one of these actions also named GE and Blackstone. The
plaintiffs purport to represent a class consisting of all
persons (other than our officers and Directors and their
affiliates) holding our Common stock. In support of their
request for injunctive and other relief, the plaintiffs allege
that the members of the Board of Directors breached their
fiduciary duties by failing to maximize stockholder value in
approving the Merger Agreement. See Note 19,
Subsequent Events in the Notes to Condensed
Consolidated Financial Statements included in this
Form 10-Q
for more information regarding the Merger Agreement.
Due to the inherent uncertainties of litigation, and because
these actions are at a preliminary stage, we cannot accurately
predict the ultimate outcome of these matters at this time. We
intend to vigorously defend against the alleged claims in each
of these matters. The ultimate resolution of these matters could
have a material adverse effect on our financial position,
results of operations or cash flows.
Item 1A. Risk
Factors
This Item 1A should be read in conjunction with
Item 1A. Risk Factors in our 2005
Form 10-K.
Other than with respect to the risk factors below, there have
been no material changes from the risk factors disclosed in
Item 1A. Risk Factors of our 2005
Form 10-K.
92
Failure
to complete the proposed merger could negatively affect
us.
On March 15, 2007, we entered into the Merger Agreement
with GE and its wholly owned subsidiary, Jade Merger Sub, Inc.
In conjunction with the Merger, GE has entered into an agreement
(the Mortgage Sale Agreement) to sell our mortgage
operations (the Mortgage Sale) to Blackstone. The
Merger is subject to approval by our stockholders, antitrust,
state licensing and other regulatory approvals, as well as
various other closing conditions. There is no assurance when or
if the Merger Agreement and the Merger will be approved by our
stockholders, and there is no assurance that the other
conditions to the completion of the Merger will be satisfied. In
connection with the Merger, we may be impacted by the following
risks:
|
|
|
|
n
|
the current market price of our Common stock may reflect a
market assumption that the Merger will occur, and a failure to
complete the Merger could result in a decline in the market
price of our Common stock;
|
|
|
n
|
the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstances that
could give rise to a termination of the Merger Agreement;
|
|
|
n
|
the outcome of any legal proceedings that have been or may be
instituted against us, members of our Board of Directors and
others relating to the Merger including any settlement of such
legal proceedings that may be subject to court approval;
|
|
|
n
|
the inability to complete the Merger due to the failure to
obtain stockholder approval or the failure to satisfy other
conditions to consummation of the Merger;
|
|
|
n
|
the failure of the Merger to close for any other reason;
|
|
|
n
|
the failure to obtain the necessary financing arrangements set
forth in commitment letters received by Blackstone in connection
with the Mortgage Sale;
|
|
|
n
|
our remedies against GE and its affiliates with respect to
certain breaches of the Merger Agreement may not be adequate to
cover our damages;
|
|
|
n
|
the proposed transactions disrupt current business plans and
operations and the potential difficulties in attracting and
retaining employees as a result of the Merger;
|
|
|
n
|
the effect of the announcement of the Merger and the Mortgage
Sale on our business relationships, operating results and
business generally; and
|
|
|
n
|
the costs, fees, expenses and charges we have and may incur
related to the Merger and the Mortgage Sale.
|
We
have identified numerous material weaknesses in our internal
control over financial reporting.
During the preparation of our financial statements for the year
ended December 31, 2005, we identified a number of control
deficiencies in our internal control over financial reporting. A
number of these control deficiencies were classified as material
weaknesses or significant deficiencies that in the aggregate
constituted material weaknesses. A material weakness is a
control deficiency that results in there being more than a
remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the annual or
interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected
on a timely basis by employees in the normal course of their
assigned functions. Additionally, management was unable to
complete its review and testing of certain outsourced
information technology services provided in support of our
financial reporting, general ledger, accounts payable, accounts
receivable, customer billing and human resource and payroll
system processes. As a result, there can be no assurance that
there were not additional material weaknesses relating to these
outsourced IT services. Based on these material weaknesses,
management concluded that our internal control over financial
reporting was not effective as of December 31, 2005.
As of the end of the period covered in this
Form 10-Q,
management performed an evaluation of the effectiveness of our
disclosure controls and procedures. Our disclosure controls and
procedures are designed to
93
ensure that information required to be disclosed in our periodic
reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within
the time periods specified in the SECs rules and forms,
and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our
management to allow timely decisions regarding disclosures.
Based on the evaluation and the identification of the material
weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting
described above which were not fully remediated as of
September 30, 2006, as well as our inability to file this
Form 10-Q
within the statutory time period, management concluded that our
disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of
September 30, 2006.
We also anticipate that our disclosure controls and procedures
for the year ended December 31, 2006 and the quarter ended
March 31, 2007 will be determined not to be effective.
There can be no assurance that our internal control over
financial reporting or our disclosure controls and procedures
will prevent future error or fraud in connection with our
financial statements. See Item 4. Controls and
Procedures for additional information.
As a result of the delays in filing our periodic reports,
we have obtained certain waivers regarding the delivery of
financial statements under our financing agreements and certain
other contractual and regulatory requirements. We may require
additional waivers in the future, particularly if we are unable
to meet the deadlines for the delivery of our quarterly and
annual financial statements. Failure to deliver these financial
statements within those deadlines or to obtain additional
waivers could be material and adverse to our business, liquidity
and financial condition.
We have previously obtained certain waivers and may need to seek
additional waivers extending the deadlines for the delivery of
our financial statements, the financial statements of our
subsidiaries and related documents to certain lenders, trustees
and other third parties in connection with our Financing
Agreements. We obtained waivers under certain of our Financing
Agreements which waive certain potential breaches of covenants
under those instruments and establish the extended deadlines for
the delivery of our financial statements and related documents
to the various lenders under those instruments. Due to the
continued existence of material weaknesses identified in our
internal control over financial reporting and delays in
completing the 2005 audited financial statements and the 2006
unaudited quarterly financial statements, we have not yet
delivered our financial statements for the year ended
December 31, 2006 and it remains uncertain whether we can
deliver our 2007 quarterly financial statements within the
deadlines prescribed in our Financing Agreements or by the SEC.
As a result, we obtained waivers for certain of our Financing
Agreements extending the deadline for the delivery of our
financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2006
and the quarter ended March 31, 2007 until June 29,
2007. Our independent registered public accounting firms
audit report with respect to the Consolidated Financial
Statements included in our 2005
Form 10-K
contained an explanatory paragraph stating that the uncertainty
about our ability to comply with certain of our Financing
Agreements covenants relating to the timely filing of our
financial statements raises substantial doubt about our ability
to continue as a going concern.
Under certain of our Financing Agreements, the lenders or
trustees have the right to notify us if they believe we have
breached a covenant under the operative documents and may
declare an event of default. If one or more notices of default
were to be given, we believe we would have various periods in
which to cure such events of default. If we do not cure the
events of default or obtain necessary waivers within the
required time periods or certain extended time periods, the
maturity of some of our debt could be accelerated and our
ability to incur additional indebtedness could be restricted. In
addition, events of default or acceleration under certain of our
Financing Agreements would trigger cross-default provisions
under certain of our other Financing Agreements. We have not yet
delivered our financial statements for the year ended
December 31, 2006 to the MTN Indenture Trustee, which were
required to be delivered no later than March 16, 2007 under
the MTN Indenture. The MTN Indenture Trustee could provide us
with a notice of default for our failure to deliver these
financial statements. In the event that we receive such notice,
we would have 90 days from receipt to cure this default or
to seek additional waivers of the financial statement delivery
requirements under the MTN Indenture. No assurances can be given
that we would be able to deliver the required financial
statements within the cure period or that waivers could be
obtained.
We also obtained certain waivers and may need to seek additional
waivers extending the date for the delivery of the financial
statements of our subsidiaries and other documents related to
such financial statements to certain regulators, investors in
mortgage loans and other third parties in order to satisfy state
mortgage licensing regulations and certain contractual
requirements. We will continue to seek similar waivers as may be
necessary in
94
the future.
There can be no assurance that any additional waivers will be
received on a timely basis, if at all, or that any waivers
obtained, including the waivers we have already obtained, will
extend for a sufficient period of time to avoid an acceleration
event, an event of default or other restrictions on our business
operations. The failure to obtain such waivers could have a
material and adverse effect on our business, liquidity and
financial condition.
The delays in filing our periodic reports with the SEC
could cause the NYSE to commence suspension or delisting
procedures with respect to our common stock.
As a result of the delay in filing our periodic reports, we are
in breach of the continued listing requirements of the NYSE and
received written notice from the NYSE on March 19, 2007
advising us that we have six months from the original filing
deadline to file our Annual Report on
Form 10-K
for the year ended December 31, 2006 with the SEC. We may
be required to seek a waiver from the NYSE for our financial
statements for the year ended December 31, 2006. There can
be no assurance that any such waiver will be granted. Further
delays in the filing of our periodic reports could cause the
NYSE to commence suspension or delisting procedures in respect
of our common stock. The commencement of any suspension or
delisting procedures by the NYSE remains, at all times, at the
discretion of the NYSE and would be publicly announced by the
NYSE. The delisting of our common stock from the NYSE prior to
the Merger may have a material adverse effect on us by, among
other things, limiting:
|
|
|
|
n
|
the liquidity of our common stock;
|
|
|
n
|
the market price of our common stock;
|
|
|
n
|
the number of institutional and other investors that will
consider investing in our common stock;
|
|
|
n
|
the availability of information concerning the trading prices
and volume of our common stock;
|
|
|
n
|
the number of broker-dealers willing to execute trades in shares
of our common stock; and
|
|
|
n
|
our ability to obtain equity financing for the continuation of
our operations.
|
Prior to the Spin-Off, we were not an independent company
and, following the Spin-Off, there is continuing uncertainty
that we will be able to make, on a timely or cost-effective
basis, the changes necessary to operate as an independent
company.
Prior to the Spin-Off, our business was operated by Cendant as
part of its broader corporate organization, rather than as an
independent company. Cendant or one of its affiliates performed
various corporate functions for us, including, but not limited
to:
|
|
|
|
n
|
selected human resources related functions;
|
|
|
n
|
tax administration;
|
|
|
n
|
selected legal and accounting functions as well as external
reporting, treasury administration, investor relations, internal
audit, insurance and facilities functions and selected
information technology and telecommunications services.
|
Neither Cendant nor any of its affiliates, including Realogy,
has any obligation to provide these functions to us other than
the transition services that were provided by Cendant and its
affiliates under the transition services agreement. (See
Item 1. BusinessArrangements with
CendantTransition Services Agreement included in our
2005
Form 10-K
for more information.) Once the transition services agreement
expires in 2007, if we do not (i) have in place our own
systems, corporate staff and business functions, (ii) have
agreements with other providers of these services or
(iii) make these changes cost-effectively, we may not be
able to operate our business effectively and our profitability
may decline. If Cendant or its affiliates do not continue to
perform effectively the
95
services that are called for under the transition services
agreement, we may not be able to operate our business
effectively. On February 27, 2007, PHH Vehicle Management
Services, LLC, our wholly owned subsidiary, and International
Business Machines Corporation (IBM) entered into an
Information Technology Services Agreement (the ITS
Agreement). As of April 1, 2007, we will no longer
receive the Outsourced IT Services from IBM through Cendant
pursuant to the transition services agreement and will receive
the Outsourced IT Services directly from IBM under the ITS
Agreement. There can be no assurance that we will be able to
make, on a timely or cost-effective basis, any further changes
necessary to operate as an independent company.
A failure to maintain our investment grade ratings could
impact our ability to obtain financing on favorable terms and
could negatively impact our business.
In the event our credit ratings were to drop below investment
grade, our access to the public corporate debt markets may be
severely limited. The cut-off for investment grade is generally
considered to be a long-term rating of Baa3, BBB- and BBB-for
Moodys Investors Service, Standard & Poors
and Fitch Ratings, respectively. In the event of a ratings
downgrade below investment grade, we may be required to rely
upon alternative sources of financing, such as bank lines and
private debt placements (secured and unsecured). A drop in our
credit ratings could also increase our cost of borrowing under
our credit facilities. Furthermore, we may be unable to retain
all of our existing bank credit commitments beyond the then
existing maturity dates. As a consequence, our cost of financing
could rise significantly, thereby negatively impacting our
ability to finance some of our capital-intensive activities,
such as our ongoing investment in MSRs and other retained
interests. Among other things, maintenance of our investment
grade ratings requires that we demonstrate high levels of
liquidity, including access to alternative sources of funding
such as committed lines of credit, as well as a capital
structure and leverage appropriate for companies in our industry.
On January 22, 2007, Standard & Poors
downgraded its rating on our senior unsecured long-term debt to
BBB-. As a result, the fees and interest rates on borrowings
under our Amended Credit Facility, Supplemental Credit Facility
and Tender Support Facility increased pursuant to the terms of
each agreement. As of March 27, 2007, our senior unsecured
long-term debt credit ratings from Moodys Investors
Service, Standard & Poors and Fitch Ratings were
Baa3, BBB- and BBB+, respectively, and our short-term debt
credit ratings were
P-3,
A-3 and F-2,
respectively.
If certain change in control transactions occur some of
our mortgage loan origination arrangements with financial
institutions could be subject to termination at the election of
such institutions.
For the year ended December 31, 2005, approximately 50% of
our mortgage loan originations were derived from our financial
institutions channel, pursuant to which we provide outsourced
mortgage loan services for customers of our financial
institution clients such as Merrill Lynch Credit Corporation
(Merrill Lynch), TD Banknorth, N.A. and Charles
Schwab Bank. Our agreements with some of these financial
institutions provide the applicable financial institution with
the right to terminate its relationship with us prior to the
expiration of the contract term if we complete a change in
control transaction with certain third-party acquirers. Although
in some cases these contracts would require the payment of
liquidated damages in such event, such amounts may not fully
compensate us for all of our actual or expected loss of business
opportunity for the remaining duration of the contract term.
Accordingly, completion of the Merger could have a material
adverse effect on our business, financial position, results of
operations or cash flows. We have entered into a Waiver and
Amendment Agreement, dated March 14, 2007 with Merrill
Lynch which provides for a waiver of its rights in connection
with a change in control from the Merger, Mortgage Sale and
transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement and the
Mortgage Sale Agreement. There can be no assurance that we will
be able to obtain similar waivers and amendments from our other
financial institution clients.
There may be a limited public market for our common stock
and our stock price may experience volatility.
Prior to the Spin-Off, there was no public market for our common
stock. In connection with the Spin-Off, our common stock was
listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol
PHH. From February 1, 2005 through
March 22, 2007, the closing trading price for our common
stock has ranged from $20.34 to $31.10. However, there can be no
assurance that an active trading market for our common stock
will be sustained in the future. In addition, the stock market
has from time to time experienced extreme price and volume
fluctuations that
96
often have been unrelated to the operating performance of
particular companies. Changes in earnings estimates by analysts
and economic and other external factors may have a significant
impact on the market price of our common stock. Fluctuations or
decreases in the trading price of our common stock may adversely
affect the liquidity of the trading market for our common stock
and our ability to raise capital through future equity
financing. In addition, on March 15, 2007, we announced the
Merger which would entitle stockholders to receive
$31.50 per share of our common stock. There is no assurance
that the Merger will be approved by our stockholders, and there
is no assurance that the other conditions to the completion of
the Merger will be satisfied.
Provisions in our charter documents, the Maryland General
Corporation Law (the MGCL) and our stockholder
rights plan may delay or prevent our acquisition by a third
party.
Our charter and by-laws contain several provisions that may make
it more difficult for a third party to acquire control of us
without the approval of our Board of Directors. These provisions
include, among other things, a classified Board of Directors,
advance notice for raising business or making nominations at
meetings and blank check preferred stock. Blank
check preferred stock enables our Board of Directors, without
stockholder approval, to designate and issue additional series
of preferred stock with such dividend, liquidation, conversion,
voting or other rights, including the right to issue convertible
securities with no limitations on conversion, as our Board of
Directors may determine, including rights to dividends and
proceeds in a liquidation that are senior to the common stock.
We are also subject to certain provisions of the MGCL which
could delay, prevent or deter a merger, acquisition, tender
offer, proxy contest or other transaction that might otherwise
result in our stockholders receiving a premium over the market
price for their common stock or may otherwise be in the best
interest of our stockholders. These include, among other
provisions:
|
|
|
|
n
|
The business combinations statute which prohibits
transactions between a Maryland corporation and an interested
stockholder or an affiliate of an interested stockholder for
five years after the most recent date on which the interested
stockholder becomes an interested stockholder and
|
|
|
n
|
The control share acquisition statute which provides
that control shares of a Maryland corporation acquired in a
control share acquisition have no voting rights except to the
extent approved by a vote of two-thirds of the votes entitled to
be cast on the matter.
|
On March 11, 2007, our Board of Directors took action to
exempt from the business combination statute to the fullest
extent permitted by the MGCL any business combination
contemplated by the Merger Agreement, the Mortgage Sale
Agreement and any transactions contemplated by each agreement,
including the Merger and Mortgage Sale. Our by-laws contain a
provision exempting any share of our capital stock from the
control share acquisition statute to the fullest extent
permitted by the MGCL. However, our Board of Directors has the
exclusive right to amend our by-laws and, subject to their
fiduciary duties, could at any time in the future amend the
by-laws to remove this exemption provision.
In addition, we entered into a Rights Agreement (the
Rights Agreement), dated as of January 28,
2005, with The Bank of New York, as rights agent. This agreement
entitles our stockholders to acquire shares of our common stock
at a price equal to 50% of the then-current market value in
limited circumstances when a third party acquires beneficial
ownership of 15% or more of our outstanding common stock or
commences a tender offer for at least 15% of our common stock,
in each case, in a transaction that our Board of Directors does
not approve. Because, under these limited circumstances, all of
our stockholders would become entitled to effect discounted
purchases of our common stock, other than the person or group
that caused the rights to become exercisable, the existence of
these rights would significantly increase the cost of acquiring
control of our company without the support of our Board of
Directors. The existence of the rights agreement could therefore
deter potential acquirers and reduce the likelihood that
stockholders receive a premium for our common stock in an
acquisition.
On March 14, 2007, prior to the execution of the Merger
Agreement, we entered into an amendment to the Rights Agreement.
The amendment revises certain terms of the Rights Agreement to
render it inapplicable to the Merger and the other transactions
contemplated by the Merger Agreement.
97
Certain provisions of the Mortgage Venture Operating
Agreement that we have with Realogy could discourage third
parties from seeking to acquire us or could reduce the amount of
consideration they would be willing to pay our stockholders in
an acquisition transaction.
Pursuant to the terms of the Mortgage Venture Operating
Agreement, as amended on May 12, 2005 and March 31,
2006, Realogy has the right to terminate the Mortgage Venture,
at its election, at any time on or after February 1, 2015
by providing two years notice to us. In addition, under
the Mortgage Venture operating agreement, Realogy may terminate
the Mortgage Venture if we effect a change in control
transaction involving certain competitors or other third
parties. In connection with such termination, we would be
required to make a liquidated damages payment in cash to Realogy
of an amount equal to the sum of (i) two times the Mortgage
Ventures trailing twelve months net income (except that,
in the case of a termination by Realogy following a change in
control of us, we may be required to make a cash payment to
Realogy in an amount equal to its allocable share of the
Mortgage Ventures trailing twelve months net income
multiplied by (a) if the Mortgage Venture Operating
Agreement is terminated prior to its twelfth anniversary, the
number of years remaining in the first twelve years of the term
of the Mortgage Venture Operating Agreement, or (b) if the
Mortgage Venture Operating Agreement is terminated after its
tenth anniversary, two years), and (ii) all costs
reasonably incurred by Cendant and its subsidiaries in unwinding
its relationship with us pursuant to the Mortgage Venture
Operating Agreement and the related agreements, including the
strategic relationship agreement, marketing agreement and
trademark license agreements. The existence of these termination
provisions could discourage third parties from seeking to
acquire us or could reduce the amount of consideration they
would be willing to pay to our stockholders in an acquisition
transaction.
On March 14, 2007, we along with certain of our affiliates
entered into a Consent and Amendment (the Consent)
which, among other things, provided for Realogys consent
under the Mortgage Venture Operating Agreement and certain other
agreements between the parties to the Merger, Mortgage Sale and
transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement and the
Mortgage Sale Agreement. See Item 1.
