The company's earnings call reveals strong financial performance with significant revenue and EBITDA growth, reduced debt, and optimistic future projections. Despite some risks like increased corporate losses and slight margin decline, these are outweighed by new business wins, growth opportunities, and improved financial health. The Q&A session did not reveal any major concerns, and management's responses were clear. Overall, the positive aspects, including strong financial metrics and optimistic guidance, suggest a positive stock price movement in the short term.
Total Company Service Revenue $40.8 million, an 11% increase year-over-year. The growth was primarily due to the ramp of the Renovation business and growth in the Lenders One and Foreclosure Trustee businesses.
Adjusted EBITDA $5.4 million, a 23% increase year-over-year. This improvement was largely driven by service revenue growth in both business segments, partially offset by a modest increase in the corporate segment's adjusted EBITDA loss.
Business Segments Adjusted EBITDA $12.8 million, an 11% or $1.3 million improvement year-over-year. This was due to service revenue and adjusted EBITDA growth in the business segments.
Corporate Segment Adjusted EBITDA Loss $7.5 million, slightly higher than the second quarter of last year, due to a prior year tech and comm benefit and higher unrealized foreign currency exchange losses.
Income Before Tax (GAAP) $200,000, compared to a loss of $7.6 million in the second quarter of 2024. This improvement was primarily driven by higher adjusted EBITDA and lower interest expense from the new debt.
Net Income Attributable to Altisource $16.6 million, compared to a net loss of $8.3 million in the same quarter of 2024. The improvement reflects an income tax benefit from the reversal of certain tax reserves related to India operations.
Unrestricted Cash $30 million at the end of the quarter.
Servicer and Real Estate Segment Service Revenue $32 million, a 10% increase year-over-year. This growth was primarily due to the ramp of the Renovation business and growth in the Foreclosure Trustee business.
Servicer and Real Estate Segment Adjusted EBITDA $12 million, an 8% or $900,000 increase year-over-year. The growth was driven by service revenue growth and lower SG&A, while margins slightly declined due to revenue mix with higher growth in the lower-margin Renovation business.
Origination Segment Service Revenue $8.8 million, a 13% increase year-over-year. The increase was primarily due to growth in the Lenders One business.
Origination Segment Adjusted EBITDA $900,000, an 81% or $400,000 increase year-over-year. This growth was driven by stronger margins and service revenue growth.

Cost discipline: Maintained cost discipline and significantly reduced corporate interest expense.
Corporate Segment Losses: The corporate segment's adjusted EBITDA loss increased by $300,000 compared to the prior year, driven by higher unrealized foreign currency exchange losses and the absence of prior year tech and communication benefits.
Decline in Adjusted EBITDA Margins: Adjusted EBITDA margins in the Servicer and Real Estate segment declined slightly due to revenue mix, with higher growth in the lower-margin Renovation business.
Dependence on Economic Conditions: The success of growth initiatives could be impacted by changes in the U.S. economy, such as a deterioration or fluctuations in origination volumes.
Low Delinquency Environment: The historically low delinquency rates (1.2% for 90-plus day mortgage delinquencies) limit growth opportunities for countercyclical businesses.
Foreclosure Market Challenges: Foreclosure starts and sales, while increasing compared to last year, remain significantly lower than pre-pandemic levels, which could constrain growth in foreclosure-related businesses.
Foreign Currency Exchange Losses: Higher unrealized foreign currency exchange losses contributed to increased corporate segment losses.
Sales Pipeline and New Business Wins: The company has a strong sales pipeline and is optimistic about its growth potential. It won new business estimated to generate $1.1 million in annual service revenue for the Servicer and Real Estate segment and $3.3 million for the Origination segment on a stabilized basis over the next couple of years.
Growth Opportunities: Altisource identified five key businesses (Renovation, Granite Construction Risk Management, Lenders One, Hubzu Marketplace, and Foreclosure Trustee) as outsized growth opportunities over the next couple of years. The company is optimistic about these initiatives and believes they represent a strong growth engine.
Market Conditions and Projections: The U.S. residential mortgage default market remains near historic lows, but foreclosure starts and sales have shown year-over-year increases. The origination market is projected to grow by 12% in 2025 compared to 2024, with 5.6 million loans expected to be originated.
Revenue and EBITDA Growth Potential: The company expects to benefit from stronger revenue and adjusted EBITDA growth in its countercyclical businesses if loan delinquencies, foreclosure starts, and sales increase.
