About Rithm Capital Corp.
About Rithm Capital Corp.
Newrez, Rithm Capital's wholly owned mortgage subsidiary, ranked in the top five U.S. lenders and servicers by funded origination volume and total unpaid principal balance at December 31, 2025, anchoring a REIT platform that completed two acquisitions in December 2025 — Crestline for $324.7 million and Paramount for $1.8 billion. Rithm operates through four segments — Origination and Servicing, Residential Transitional Lending, Asset Management, and Investment Portfolio — with offices in New York, London, Hong Kong, Tokyo, Toronto, and Abu Dhabi.
Rithm generates revenue from several streams: gain on sale of originated loans to GSEs and Ginnie Mae, MSR valuations retained on sold loans, tiered subservicing fees for third-party clients across performing and special servicing, and asset management fees plus incentive income from Sculptor Capital Management and other RAM subsidiaries. Approximately 91% of the underlying UPB of owned MSRs is serviced internally by Newrez. Origination channels span Direct to Consumer (highest margin), Retail/JV, Wholesale, and Correspondent (lowest margin). The Paramount Acquisition added Class A office assets in New York City and San Francisco managed through an owner-operator model. Asset management revenues are primarily fee-based, drawn from hedge fund, private credit, and CLO strategies managed through Sculptor and Crestline, with incentive income subject to hurdle rates and high-water marks.
Show full overview
Geographic concentration in California and Florida exposes Rithm's loan portfolios to natural disaster risk: 36.8% of Genesis residential transitional loans — approximately $1.3 billion in UPB — are secured by California properties at December 31, 2025, a state susceptible to wildfires, earthquakes, and mudslides. This risk materialized in January 2025, when wildfires in Los Angeles County affected properties securing roughly 8,478 Newrez loans totaling approximately $3.0 billion in UPB within a FEMA-declared disaster area, leading to delayed payments and increased advance obligations. An additional 12.0% of Genesis RTLs ($431.1 million) are secured in Florida, where hurricane exposure could compound portfolio stress.
