Exhibit 99.1

PHH Corporation Comments on Settlement with Multi-State Mortgage Committee and
State Attorneys General

Mount Laurel, NJ – January 3, 2018 – PHH Corporation (NYSE: PHH) (“PHH” or the “Company”) today issued the following statement in conjunction with the settlement agreement and consent orders its wholly owned subsidiary, PHH Mortgage Corporation, has entered into with the Multi-State Mortgage Committee (“MMC”) and State Attorneys General. The settlement resolves and closes out findings related to legacy mortgage servicing activities occurring between January 1, 2009 and December 31, 2012 that were subject to a multi-state mortgage loan servicing examination.

“We have agreed to resolve concerns raised by the MMC arising from its servicing examination conducted in 2010 and believe that settling this matter is in the best interest of PHH and its constituents. Our decision to resolve this legacy matter under the terms of the settlement agreement and consent orders is not an admission of liability or that we violated any applicable laws, regulations or rules governing the conduct and operation of our Servicing business during the relevant time frame. In fact, the Servicing Standards that we are required to adopt under the terms of the settlement are largely PHH’s servicing standards today. We have made and will continue to make the necessary enhancements in our operations to ensure we remain compliant and continue to serve our customers in a fair and appropriate manner.”

Under the terms of the settlement, PHH will pay approximately $45 million in aggregate, adopt negotiated Servicing Standards, and implement a testing and reporting process to ensure compliance with the Servicing Standards for a period of three years. This settlement amount is included in the Company’s recorded liability as of September 30, 2017.
