RESIDENTIAL MORTGAGE LOANS RESIDENTIAL MORTGAGE LOANS
Rithm Capital accumulates its residential mortgage loan portfolio through originations, bulk acquisitions and the execution of call rights. Substantially all of the residential mortgage loan portfolio is serviced by Newrez.

Loans are accounted for based on Rithm Capital’s strategy and management’s intent and on whether the loan was credit-impaired at the date of acquisition. As of September 30, 2025, Rithm Capital accounts for loans based on the following categories:

•Loans held-for-investment (“HFI”), at fair value
•Loans held-for-sale (“HFS”), at lower of cost or fair value
•Loans HFS, at fair value
•Investments of consolidated CFEs represent mortgage loans held by certain mortgage securitization trusts where Rithm Capital is determined to be a primary beneficiary and, as a result, consolidates such trusts. The assets are measured based on the fair value of the more observable liabilities of such trusts under the CFE election. The obligations and liabilities of CFEs may only be satisfied with the assets of the respective consolidated CFEs, and creditors of the CFE do not have recourse to Rithm Capital Corp.
