Organization and Description of Business
1. Organization and Description of Business
Finance of America Companies Inc. ("FoA", "Company", or "Successor") was incorporated in Delaware on October 9, 2020. FoA is a financial services holding company which, through its operating subsidiaries, is a leading originator and servicer of residential mortgage loans and provider of complementary financial services.
FoA has a controlling financial interest in Finance of America Equity Capital LLC ("FoA Equity" or "Predecessor"). FoA Equity owns all of the outstanding equity interests in Finance of America Funding LLC ("FOAF"). FOAF wholly owns Finance of America Holdings LLC ("FAH") and Incenter LLC ("Incenter" and collectively, with FoA Equity, FOAF, and FAH, known as "holding company subsidiaries").
The Company, through its FAH holding company subsidiary, operates two lending companies, Finance of America Mortgage LLC ("FAM) and Finance of America Reverse ("FAR") (collectively, the "operating lending subsidiaries"). Effective January 1, 2022, the Company's operating lending subsidiary Finance of America Commercial LLC ("FACo"), which previously operated as a separate operating lending subsidiary under FAH, merged with FAM, with FAM being the surviving operating lending subsidiary. Through FAM and FAR, the Company originates, purchases, sells, and securitizes conventional (conforming to the underwriting standards of Fannie Mae ("FNMA") or Freddie Mac ("FHLMC"); collectively referred to as government sponsored entities ("GSEs")), government-insured (FHA), government guaranteed (VA), and proprietary non-agency residential and reverse mortgages. FAM (prior to January 1, 2022 through FACo) also originates or acquires a variety of commercial mortgage loans made to owners and investors of single and multi-family residential rental properties, as well as government-insured agricultural loans made to farmers to fund their inputs and operating expenses for the upcoming growing season. Additionally, FAM originates or acquires secured and unsecured home improvement loans or receivables. The Company, through its Incenter holding company subsidiary, has operating service companies (the "operating service subsidiaries" and together with the operating lending subsidiaries, the "operating subsidiaries") which provide lender services, title services, secondary markets advisory services, mortgage trade brokerage, appraisal, and capital management services to customers in the residential mortgage, student lending, and commercial lending industries. Incenter operates a foreign branch in the Philippines for fulfillment transactional support.
On October 20, 2022, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of the Company authorized a plan to discontinue substantially all of the operations of the Company’s Mortgage Originations segment to strategically optimize and invest in the Company’s Reverse Originations, Commercial Originations, Lender Services and Portfolio Management segments. This plan will commence in the fourth quarter of 2022 and is expected to be substantially completed by the end of 2022. Refer to Note 27 - Subsequent Events for additional information.
