FREDDIE
MAC REPORTS SECOND QUARTER 2011 FINANCIAL RESULTS
Pays $1.6
Billion in Dividends to Treasury and Requests $1.5 Billion Draw
for the Second Quarter
Helps to
Finance Housing for over 375,000 American Families
| Net loss of $2.1 billion, mainly reflecting: |
| Net interest income of $4.6 billion; more than offset by | |
| Derivative losses of $3.8 billion; | |
| Provision for credit losses of $2.5 billion; and | |
| Net security impairments of $352 million. |
| Total comprehensive loss of $1.1 billion, consisting of: |
| Net loss of $2.1 billion; partially offset by | |
| Total other comprehensive income of $1.0 billion. |
| Net worth deficit of $1.5 billion at June 30, 2011 was due to several contributing factors including the $1.6 billion quarterly dividend payment to Treasury and the total comprehensive loss for the second quarter. To eliminate this deficit, FHFA, as Conservator, will submit a $1.5 billion draw request to Treasury, which will increase the aggregate liquidation preference of the senior preferred stock to $66.2 billion. | |
| New single-family business acquired after 2008 continues to demonstrate strong credit quality based on borrower credit scores and loan-to-value ratios at origination. | |
| Single-family serious delinquency rate was 3.50 percent at June 30, 2011, down from 3.63 percent at March 31, 2011 and remains substantially below industry benchmarks. | |
| The company helped more than 116,000 borrowers avoid foreclosure in the first half of 2011, including approximately 54,000 during the second quarter. |
McLean, VA Freddie Mac (OTC: FMCC)
today reported a net loss of $2.1 billion for the quarter
ended June 30, 2011, compared to net income of
$676 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2011. The
company also reported a total comprehensive loss of
$1.1 billion in the second quarter of 2011, compared to
total comprehensive income of $2.7 billion in the first
quarter of 2011.

The companys net income and total comprehensive income can
vary significantly from quarter to quarter due to changes in
fair values as a result of changes in interest rates and
mortgage spreads. Conditions in the U.S. housing and
mortgage markets can also have a significant impact on the
companys financial results from period to period.
| The shift from net income for the first quarter of 2011 to a net loss for the second quarter of 2011 primarily reflects the impact of declines in long-term interest rates on the fair value of derivatives. | |
| The change from total comprehensive income for the first quarter of 2011 to a total comprehensive loss for the second quarter of 2011 primarily reflects the net loss for the second quarter and the adverse impact of widening spreads on the fair value of the companys non-agency available-for-sale (AFS) securities. | |
| The company continues to see modest improvement in single-family credit performance. However, credit losses and credit-related expenses remain at elevated levels, and various factors, such as continued high unemployment rates and/or further declines in home prices, result in continued downside risk. |
The components of total comprehensive income help show the
drivers of Freddie Macs net worth (deficit) and the
companys potential need for additional draws under the
Senior Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement (Purchase Agreement),
including the relative contribution of financial results and
dividend payments to Freddie Macs net worth (deficit).
Total comprehensive income (loss) is equal to net income (loss)
plus total other comprehensive income, which represents the
change in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), net of
taxes (AOCI). AOCI is the section of the balance sheet where the
company records a portion of the changes in fair value on its
AFS securities.
Freddie Macs net worth deficit of $1.5 billion at
June 30, 2011 reflects an opening net worth balance of
$1.2 billion at the beginning of the second quarter, a
quarterly dividend payment to Treasury of $1.6

billion on the companys senior preferred stock as well as
total comprehensive loss of $1.1 billion for the second
quarter of 2011. To eliminate this deficit, the Federal Housing
Finance Agency (FHFA), as Conservator, will submit a
$1.5 billion draw request to Treasury under the Purchase
Agreement. The table below shows Freddie Macs requested
draws from Treasury and dividend payments to Treasury since
entering conservatorship.

Freddie Mac again played a leading role in the housing
finance system and the U.S. economy, providing nearly
$180 billion in needed liquidity to the market in the first
half of 2011 while helping over 116,000 families avoid
foreclosure, said Freddie Mac Chief Executive Officer
Charles E. Haldeman, Jr. We also continued to make
progress in our efforts to strengthen the company and build
value for the mortgage industry. One of our biggest priorities
has been implementing the Servicing Alignment Initiative, an
essential and joint effort with Fannie Mae that will improve the
industrys ability to help borrowers facing foreclosures.
Mortgage interest rates remained near record lows during
the second quarter, helping to support the most affordable
market for homebuyers in decades, Haldeman noted.
Nonetheless, labor market weakness and households
worries about their financial security dampened home sales
during the quarter. While we expect some improvement in home
sales during the second half of the year, our outlook for the
single-family housing market remains cautious. One bright spot
is the rental apartment market, which continues to show signs of
improvement with a rebound in property values over the past year
and better availability of equity and debt financing.

Non-performing assets also include multifamily loans that are deemed impaired based on management judgment. |
Net interest income was $4.6 billion for the second
quarter of 2011, compared to $4.5 billion for the first
quarter of 2011. Net interest income principally consists of the
net spread between the companys mortgage-related
investments portfolio and the unsecured debt which funds those
investments. Net interest yield, which represents net interest
income expressed as an annualized percentage of average
interest-earning assets, was 81 basis points for the second
quarter of 2011, compared to 79 basis points for the first
quarter of 2011. The slight increases in net interest income and
net interest yield were primarily due to lower funding costs.
Provision for credit losses was $2.5 billion for the
second quarter of 2011, compared to $2.0 billion for the
first quarter of 2011. The companys loan loss reserve
balance (which represents its estimate of probable incurred
losses on loans within its single-family credit guarantee and
multifamily mortgage portfolios) is increased by the provision
for credit losses and reduced by charge-offs. The increase in
the provision for credit losses in the second quarter was mostly
driven by a small increase in the number of newly delinquent
loans and a slowdown in the pace of improvement in the rate at
which loans transition into serious delinquency within the
companys single-family portfolio population.

Derivative gains (losses) for the second quarter of 2011
was a loss of $3.8 billion, compared to a loss of
$427 million for the first quarter of 2011. Derivatives are
used to reduce Freddie Macs exposure to interest-rate risk
but they generally increase the volatility of earnings because
fair value changes on the companys derivative portfolio
are included in earnings while fair value changes associated
with several of the types of assets and liabilities being hedged
are not. The increase in derivative losses reflected a shift to
losses on the net pay-fixed swap portfolio, partially offset by
a shift to gains on the net call swaption portfolio, as
long-term interest rates decreased during the second quarter of
2011.
Net impairment of AFS securities recognized in earnings
for the second quarter of 2011 was $352 million,
compared to $1.2 billion for the first quarter of 2011.
When Freddie Mac determines a decrease in the fair value of an
AFS security is other-than-temporary and the company does not
have the intent to sell the security, the credit-related portion
of the impairment is recognized in earnings, while the
non-credit-related portion of the impairment is recorded in
AOCI. The decrease in net impairment expense primarily reflects
the benefit of declining interest rates during the second
quarter of 2011. This benefit was partially offset by the
unfavorable impact from home prices and impairments on certain
commercial mortgage-backed securities that the company now
intends to sell subject to market conditions.

REO operations expense for the second quarter of 2011 was
$27 million, compared to $257 million for the first
quarter of 2011. REO operations expense primarily consists of
expenses incurred to maintain foreclosed properties, valuation
adjustments on properties, disposition gains or losses, and
recoveries. The decrease in REO operations expense was primarily
driven by an improvement in both REO holding period write-downs
and disposition losses as REO fair values stabilized during the
second quarter.
Total other comprehensive income for the second quarter
of 2011 was $1.0 billion, compared to $2.1 billion for
the first quarter of 2011. The decrease was primarily driven by
fair value losses on non-agency securities due to widening
spreads, partially offset by the favorable impact on the
companys agency securities of declining interest rates
during the second quarter of 2011.
Supporting
the Nations Housing Market
Freddie Mac continues to support the nations housing
market by providing families with access to affordable
homeownership and rental housing, and helping struggling
borrowers avoid foreclosure, while working to build long-term
value for the industry.
Providing Liquidity - Freddie Mac remains a major and
consistent source of affordable mortgage funding
purchasing or guaranteeing one out of every four home loans. In
the second quarter, the company provided approximately
$73.4 billion in liquidity to the mortgage market, helping
to finance over 275,000 conforming single-family loans and
nearly 100,000 units of rental housing.
Responsible Lending - Freddie Mac continues to advance
responsible lending practices, creating sustainable
homeownership opportunities for Americas families and
lowering losses for the company and taxpayers. This effort
includes strengthening single-family underwriting standards,
eliminating the companys purchases of interest-only, Alt-A
and option ARM mortgages, educating borrowers about the new
lending environment and improving quality and consistency in the
conforming mortgage origination process.

Foreclosure Prevention - Freddie Mac helped approximately
54,000 struggling borrowers avoid foreclosure in the second
quarter of 2011 finding home retention solutions for
8 out of every 10 borrowers helped.

Building Value - Freddie Mac continued its efforts to
build value for its customers and the industry through improved
technology and processes. Some of the recent process and
technology enhancements have allowed the company to improve
servicing operations, and other daily business processes with
servicers. In addition, Freddie Mac is working with FHFA on
broad industry initiatives in areas such as mortgage servicing
compensation and data quality standards that are expected to
deliver lasting benefits to homebuyers, renters and lenders.
Working at the direction of and in concert with FHFA, Freddie
Mac and Fannie Mae are implementing the Servicing Alignment
Initiative, which aligns requirements around mortgage servicing
and delinquency management. The company believes that
government-sponsored enterprise alignment on loss mitigation
activities will support a mutual goal of quality and responsible
servicing. Freddie Mac made significant progress in implementing
this initiative in the second quarter, and expects its servicers
to begin implementing these changes and engaging with homeowners
under many of the new requirements during the second half of
2011.
Credit
Quality
The companys single-family credit guarantee portfolio
continues to experience significant credit losses, due in part
to the ongoing weakness in the U.S. economy. Since the
beginning of 2008, on an aggregate basis, the company has
recorded a provision for credit losses of $66.9 billion
associated with single-family loans and recorded an additional
$4.5 billion in losses on loans purchased from the
companys PC trusts, net of recoveries. The majority of
these losses are associated with loans originated in 2005
through 2008.
New Single-Family Books of Business - Freddie Mac
believes that the credit quality of the single-family loans the
company acquired after 2008 is strong, as measured by original
loan-to-value (LTV) ratios, FICO scores, and the proportion of
loans underwritten with fully documented income.
Freddie Mac Second Quarter 2011 Financial Results
August 8, 2011
Page 8
August 8, 2011
Page 8
At June 30, 2011, approximately 46 percent of the
companys single-family credit guarantee portfolio
consisted of mortgage loans originated after 2008. Excluding
relief refinance mortgages, these new vintages reflect changes
in underwriting practices and improved borrower and loan
characteristics. The company currently expects that, over time,
the replacement of older vintages should positively impact the
serious delinquency rates and credit-related expenses (equal to
the provision for credit losses and REO operations expense) on
its single-family credit guarantee portfolio. The table below
provides certain credit quality data by year of origination for
the companys single-family credit guarantee portfolio
based on the current UPB remaining at June 30, 2011.

Single-family serious delinquency rate for Freddie Mac
was 3.50 percent at June 30, 2011, down from
3.63 percent at March 31, 2011. By way of comparison,
according to the National Delinquency Survey compiled by the
Mortgage Bankers Association, the serious delinquency rate on
first-lien single-family loans in the U.S. mortgage market
was 8.1 percent at March 31, 2011, which is the most
current data available. While the volume of new single-family
serious delinquencies has declined the past several quarters,
the companys serious delinquency rate remains high due to
continued stress in the housing and labor markets.
Multifamily delinquency rate was 0.31 percent at
June 30, 2011, compared to 0.36 percent at
March 31, 2011. The decrease was primarily driven by a
higher volume of mortgage loans foreclosed upon during the
second quarter.
Net charge-offs were $3.1 billion in the second
quarter of 2011, or 0.62 percent (annualized), of the
average total mortgage portfolio, excluding non-Freddie Mac
securities, compared to $3.0 billion, or 0.60 percent
(annualized), in the first quarter of 2011. Freddie Macs
single-family charge-offs remained

August 8, 2011
Page 9
August 8, 2011
Page 9
elevated during the second quarter, but reflect suppression of
activity due to delays in the foreclosure process. The company
believes the level of its charge-offs will continue to remain
high in 2011 and may increase in 2012 due to the large number of
single-family non-performing loans that will likely be resolved
as its servicers work through their foreclosure-related issues.
Non-performing assets were $123.9 billion, or
6.4 percent of the total mortgage portfolio, excluding
non-Freddie Mac securities, at June 30, 2011, compared to
$124.4 billion, or 6.4 percent, at March 31,
2011. These amounts included $37.2 billion and
$33.1 billion of modified loans that are reperforming or
less than three months past due at June 30, 2011 and
March 31, 2011, respectively. The amount of non-performing
assets declined slightly during the second quarter of 2011
primarily due to a decline in the companys REO inventory.
Net Worth
and Treasury Draws
Net Worth and Current Quarter Draw - Freddie Macs
net worth deficit was $1.5 billion at June 30, 2011,
resulting from several contributing factors including a dividend
payment of $1.6 billion to Treasury on the companys
senior preferred stock and the total comprehensive loss of
$1.1 billion. To eliminate this net worth deficit, FHFA, as
Conservator, will submit a request for $1.5 billion in
additional funding to Treasury under the terms of the Purchase
Agreement. FHFA will request funding by September 30, 2011.
Liquidation Preference and Dividends - Treasury is
entitled to receive cumulative quarterly cash dividends at the
annual rate of 10% per year on the liquidation preference of the
senior preferred stock. The initial aggregate liquidation
preference of Freddie Macs senior preferred stock was
$1.0 billion, representing a portion of the initial
commitment fee to compensate Treasury for its funding
commitment. Based on cumulative draws of $65.2 billion,
which includes the $1.5 billion to be requested from
Treasury in conjunction with the companys second quarter
2011 net worth deficit, the aggregate liquidation
preference will increase to $66.2 billion as of
September 30, 2011. The corresponding annual cash dividends
payable to Treasury will increase to $6.6 billion, which
exceeds the companys annual historical earnings in all but
one period. To date, the company has paid approximately
$13.2 billion in cash dividends to Treasury. Under the
Purchase Agreement, the companys ability to repay the
liquidation preference of the senior preferred stock is limited.
Commitment Fee - The Purchase Agreement requires the
company to pay a quarterly commitment fee to Treasury to
compensate Treasury for the support provided by its ongoing
funding commitment. Under the Purchase Agreement, Treasury may
waive the quarterly commitment fee for up to one year at a time
in its sole discretion, based on adverse conditions in the
U.S. mortgage market. Treasury has waived the quarterly
commitment fee for the first three quarters of 2011 and will
reevaluate whether the fee should be set in the fourth quarter
of 2011. The amount of the fee has not yet been established and
could be substantial. Absent Treasury waiving the commitment fee
for the fourth quarter of 2011, the quarterly
Freddie Mac Second Quarter 2011 Financial Results
August 8, 2011
Page 10
August 8, 2011
Page 10
commitment fee will begin accruing on October 1, 2011 and
must be paid each quarter for as long as the Purchase Agreement
is in effect. Treasury has indicated that it remains committed
to protecting taxpayers and ensuring that future positive
earnings of the company are returned to taxpayers as
compensation for their investment.
Future Draws - Freddie Mac expects to request additional
draws under the Purchase Agreement in future periods. The size
and timing of such draws will be determined by a variety of
factors that could adversely affect the companys net
worth, such as changes in home prices, interest rates, mortgage
security prices, spreads and other factors. Over the long term,
it is unlikely that the company will regularly generate net
income or comprehensive income in excess of annual dividends
payable to Treasury. As a result, over time the companys
dividend obligation to Treasury will increasingly drive future
draws. In addition, other factors such as the quarterly
commitment fees payable to Treasury could also contribute to
additional draws if the fees are not waived by Treasury in
future periods. See LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL
RESOURCES Capital Resources in the
companys Quarterly Report on
Form 10-Q
for the quarter ended June 30, 2011 for further discussion
of factors that could affect future draws.
Freddie Mac has been operating under conservatorship, with FHFA
acting as its Conservator, since September 6, 2008. The
company is dependent upon the continued support of Treasury and
FHFA in order to continue operating its business. A downgrade in
the credit ratings of the U.S. government or a reduction in
the credit ratings of Freddie Macs debt could adversely
affect the companys liquidity, and the supply and cost of
debt financing available to the company. On August 5, 2011,
S&P lowered the long-term credit rating of the United
States to AA+ from AAA and assigned a
negative outlook to the rating, while affirming the
A-1+
short-term credit rating. On August 8, 2011, S&P
lowered Freddie Macs senior long-term debt credit rating
to AA+ from AAA and assigned a negative
outlook to the rating. S&P also affirmed the companys
short-term debt credit rating of
A-1+.
See RISK FACTORS in the companys Quarterly
Report on
Form 10-Q
for the quarter ended June 30, 2011 for further discussion.
Segment
Earnings and Comprehensive Income
Freddie Macs operations consist of three reportable
segments, which are based on the type of business activities
each performs Investments, Single-family Guarantee
and Multifamily.
The company evaluates segment performance and allocates
resources based on a Segment Earnings approach, subject to the
conduct of its business under the direction of the Conservator.
The accounting principles applied to present certain line items
in Segment Earnings for the companys reportable segments,
in particular Segment Earnings net interest income and
management and guarantee income,
Freddie Mac Second Quarter 2011 Financial Results
August 8, 2011
Page 11
August 8, 2011
Page 11
differ significantly from those applied in preparing the
comparable line items in its consolidated financial statements
in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles
(GAAP). Accordingly, Segment Earnings line items and results
differ significantly from, and should not be used as a
substitute for, the comparable line items and results determined
in accordance with GAAP.
Investments Segment Earnings was $10 million for the
second quarter of 2011, compared to $2.1 billion for the
first quarter of 2011. The decrease in segment earnings was
primarily driven by derivative losses on the companys net
pay-fixed swap portfolio, partially offset by lower impairments
on non-agency AFS securities. Total comprehensive income for the
Investments segment was $643 million for the second quarter
of 2011, compared to $3.3 billion for the first quarter of
2011. This decrease was primarily driven by the adverse impacts
of declines in long-term interest rates on the fair value of
derivatives and widening spreads on the fair value of non-agency
AFS securities.
Single-family Guarantee Segment Earnings (loss) was a
loss of $2.4 billion for the second quarter of 2011,
compared to a loss of $1.8 billion for the first quarter of
2011. The increase in segment loss was primarily driven by
higher provision for credit losses during the second quarter of
2011. Total comprehensive income (loss) for the Single-family
Guarantee segment approximated Segment Earnings (loss) for both
the first and second quarters of 2011.
Multifamily Segment Earnings was $200 million for
the second quarter of 2011, compared to $359 million for
the first quarter of 2011. The decrease in segment earnings was
primarily due to lower other non-interest income, a lower
benefit for credit losses and higher net impairments recognized
on commercial mortgage-backed securities during the second
quarter of 2011. Total comprehensive income for the Multifamily
segment was $605 million for the second quarter of 2011,
compared to $1.3 billion for the first quarter of 2011.
This decrease was primarily driven by smaller spread tightening
on the commercial mortgage-backed securities portfolio.
