McLean, VA - Freddie Mac (OTCQB: FMCC) today reported net income of $2.8 billion for the second quarter of 2024, a decrease of 6% year-over-year, primarily driven by a credit reserve build in the current period compared to a credit reserve release in the prior year period, partially offset by higher net revenues.
Net revenues were $6.0 billion for the second quarter of 2024, up 12% year-over-year, driven by higher net interest income and higher non-interest income. Net interest income for the second quarter of 2024 was $4.9 billion, up 9% year-over-year, primarily driven by continued mortgage portfolio growth and lower expense related to debt in hedge accounting relationships. Non-interest income for the second quarter of 2024 was $1.1 billion, up 30% year-over-year, primarily driven by higher guarantee income and higher net investment gains.
Provision for credit losses was $0.4 billion for the second quarter of 2024, primarily driven by a credit reserve build in Single-Family attributable to new acquisitions. The benefit for credit losses of $0.5 billion for the second quarter of 2023 was primarily driven by a credit reserve release in Single-Family due to improvements in house prices, partially offset by a credit reserve build in Multifamily.

•Net revenues were $0.9 billion, down 9%year-over-year.

(4) First quarter 2024 data revised to reflect results based on updated annual AMI data provided by FHFA in the second quarter of 2024.
Business Highlights
•New business activity decreased by 15% year-over-year, as new business activities continued to be adversely impacted by the high interest-rate environment.
•The company provided financing for 92,000 multifamily rental units. 65% of the eligible multifamily rental units financed were affordable to low-income families.
•The Multifamily delinquency rate increased to 0.38% at June 30, 2024, from 0.21% at June 30, 2023, primarily driven by an increase in delinquent floating rate loans including small balance loans that are in their floating rate period. As of June 30, 2024, 95% of the delinquent loans in the Multifamily mortgage portfolio had credit enhancement coverage.
•The UPB of mortgage loans covered by new CRT transactions decreased year-over-year, primarily due to a smaller average securitization pipeline balance during the second quarter of 2024, resulting in fewer securitizations with subordination.

About Freddie Mac's Conservatorship
Since September 2008, Freddie Mac has been operating under conservatorship with FHFA as Conservator. The support provided by Treasury pursuant to the Purchase Agreement enables the company to maintain access to the debt markets and have adequate liquidity to conduct its normal business operations. The amount of funding available to Freddie Mac under the Purchase Agreement was $140.2 billion at June 30, 2024.
Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, Freddie Mac will not be required to pay a dividend to Treasury on the senior preferred stock until it has built sufficient capital to meet the capital requirements and buffers set forth in the Enterprise Regulatory Capital Framework. As a result, the company was not required to pay a dividend to Treasury on the senior preferred stock in June 2024. As the company builds capital during this period, the quarterly increases in its Net Worth Amount have been, or will be, added to the aggregate liquidation preference of the senior preferred stock. The liquidation preference of the senior preferred stock increased to $123.1 billion on June 30, 2024 based on the increase in the Net Worth Amount during the first quarter of 2024, and will increase to $125.9 billion on September 30, 2024 based on the increase in the Net Worth Amount during the second quarter of 2024.
