On Monday, Radian's subsidiary, Radian Mortgage Capital LLC, and JPMorgan agreed to extend the termination date of their Master Repurchase Agreement from January 27, 2025, to December 12, 2025. This agreement is central to Radian's strategy for financing the acquisition of residential mortgage loans from correspondent lenders.

Alongside the extension, the size of the financing facility has been increased from $125 million to $300 million, providing Radian with additional financial flexibility. The amendment also includes minor changes to the original terms but leaves the core structure of the agreement intact, including the Parent Guaranty, which ensures Radian Group (NYSE:RDN)'s backing of its subsidiary's obligations.

With annual revenue of $1.3 billion and a track record of maintaining dividend payments for 32 consecutive years, Radian demonstrates consistent financial performance.

The Master Repurchase Agreement, initially signed on January 29, 2024, and assigned to JPMorgan from Flagstar Bank N.A. on July 22, 2024, is a key component of Radian's capital management operations. It allows the subsidiary to finance its purchase of mortgage loans for resale or securitization in the capital markets.

The filing with the SEC also reaffirms Radian Group's obligations under the Parent Guaranty, confirming its commitment to the terms of the agreement. The full details of the amendment, known as JPMorgan MRA Amendment No. 1, are included in the SEC filing and are incorporated by reference.
