Introductory Note

 

On July 1, 2025, Rocket Companies, Inc. (“Rocket” or the “Company”) completed the previously announced acquisition of Redfin Corporation (“Redfin”), a Delaware corporation. Pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of March 9, 2025 (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among the Company, Redfin and Neptune Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub”), Merger Sub merged with and into Redfin (the “Merger”), with Redfin surviving the Merger and continuing as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. As consideration for the Merger, approximately 103,391,679 shares of Rocket Class A common stock, par value $0.00001 (“Rocket common stock”) were issued to the stockholders of Redfin.

 

Item 1.01 Entry into Material Definitive Agreement.

 

Convertible Notes

 

In connection with the Merger, Rocket became a co-obligor under the 0.00% convertible senior notes due 2025 issued by Redfin in October 2020 (the “2025 Notes”) and the 0.50% convertible senior notes due 2027 issued by Redfin in March 2021 (the “2027 Notes” and, together with the 2025 Notes, the “Convertible Notes”). The 2025 Notes mature on October 15, 2025, unless earlier converted, reduced or repurchased. The 2027 Notes mature on April 1, 2027, unless earlier converted, reduced or repurchased. Interest for the 2025 Notes is payable semi-annually in arrears on April 15 and October 15 of each year and interest for the 2027 Notes is payable semi-annually in arrears on April 1 and October 1 of each year.

 

Effective as of July 1, 2025, upon a conversion of the 2025 Notes pursuant to the terms provided for in the indenture governing the 2025 Notes, holders of the 2025 Notes will be entitled to convert each $1,000 principal amount of such 2025 Notes into 10.9315392 shares of Rocket common stock. Effective as of July 1, 2025, upon a conversion of the 2027 Notes pursuant to the terms provided for in the indenture governing the 2027 Notes, holders of the 2027 Notes will be entitled to convert each $1,000 principal amount of such 2027 Notes into 8.4744792 shares of Rocket common stock. The conversion rate is subject to adjustment if certain events occur. Holders of the Convertible Notes who convert their Convertible Notes following certain corporate events or if we deliver a notice of redemption are, under certain circumstances, entitled to an increase in the conversion rate.

 

The Convertible Notes are subject to redemption at our option if the last reported sale price of our common stock has been at least 130% of the conversion price then in effect for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during any 30 consecutive trading days ending on, and including, the trading day immediately preceding the date on which we provide notice of redemption. The Convertible Notes may be redeemed in whole or in part so long as (in the case of partial redemption) at least $100 million principal amount of the Convertible Notes remains outstanding. The redemption price will be 100% of the principal amount of the Convertible Notes to be redeemed, plus any accrued and unpaid special interest to, but excluding, the redemption date.

 

The indentures governing the Convertible Notes include customary terms and covenants, including certain events of default after which the Convertible Notes may become due and payable immediately.

 

Holders of the Convertible Notes may convert all or a portion of their Convertible Notes prior to the close of business on July 14, 2025 for the 2025 Notes and January 1, 2027 for the 2027 Notes, in integral multiples of $1,000 principal amount, only under the following circumstances:

 

· during any calendar quarter (and only during such calendar quarter), if the last reported sale price of our common stock for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during a period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on, and including, the last trading day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter is greater than or equal to 130% of the conversion price of the Convertible Notes on each applicable trading day;

 

1


 

· during the five business day period after any five consecutive trading day period in which the trading price per $1,000 principal amount of the Convertible Notes for each trading day of such measurement period was less than 98% of the product of the last reported sale price of our common stock and the conversion rate of the Convertible Notes on each such trading day;

 

· if we call such Convertible Notes for redemption, at any time prior to the close of business on the scheduled trading day prior to the redemption date; or

 

· upon the occurrence of specified corporate events.

 

The maximum number of shares of our common stock issuable upon conversion of the Convertible Notes is 6,396,493 shares.

 

In the event of a fundamental change, holders of the Convertible Notes may require us to repurchase all or a portion of their Convertible Notes at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Convertible Notes, plus any accrued and unpaid special interest to, but excluding, the fundamental change date.

Rocket Companies Completes Acquisition of Redfin

 

Homebuyers can choose how they could save thousands of dollars when working with both Redfin and Rocket Mortgage.

 

DETROIT and SEATTLE, July 1, 2025 – Rocket Companies (NYSE: RKT), the Detroit-based homeownership platform, today announced it has completed its acquisition of Redfin – bringing the most-visited real estate brokerage website together with America’s largest mortgage lender.

 

"I’ve used Redfin every day for the last 20 years. It helped me find and fall in love with my first home, completely changing how I thought about real estate," said Varun Krishna, Rocket Companies CEO. "The Redfin team is best-in-class in building a product experience focused on simplicity. It was a perfect fit for Rocket’s vision of what the homeownership experience should be."

 

The companies also today introduced Rocket Preferred Pricing. Clients who finance their home through Rocket Mortgage and buy a home listed by a Redfin agent or purchase with the help of a Redfin agent will have a one percentage point reduction in their interest rate for the first year of their loan or receive a lender credit at closing, up to $6,0001.

 

Rocket Preferred Pricing is available to qualified clients buying a home with conventional, FHA or VA loans. Rocket Mortgage and Redfin plan to launch additional products and services for homebuyers, real estate agents and mortgage brokers in the coming months.

 

Redfin has adopted a refreshed brand identity and look and feel of “Redfin Powered by Rocket” to further unify the homebuying experience.

 

"The gulf between the American Dream of homeownership and reality has never been wider," said Redfin CEO Glenn Kelman. "The reason Rocket and Redfin came together was to bridge that gap, so that the people who spend their days dreaming on Redfin.com can easily use Rocket financing to own their dream."

Update to Rocket Companies Up-C structure

 

Rocket Companies also completed the previously announced simplification of its organizational and capital structure.

 

On June 30, 2025, Rocket Companies collapsed its “Up-C” structure, eliminated its high-vote / low-vote structure and reduced its classes of common stock from four to two (the “Up-C Collapse”). Public stockholders will continue to hold their existing common stock as Class A shares. Dan Gilbert and other Rock Holdings Inc. (RHI) stockholders will hold common stock in Rocket Companies directly as Class L shares.

 

The Up-C Collapse simplifies Rocket’s organizational structure, enhances equity liquidity, improves its ability to use its common stock as currency in acquisition transactions and creates a clearer corporate profile.

Exhibit 99.2

 

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

 

In the following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information and the accompanying notes, unless the context otherwise requires, references to “Rocket,” “we,” “us,” “our” and the “Company” refer to Rocket Companies, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries. Additional terms used in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information and the accompanying notes are defined throughout this section.

 

Introduction

 

The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X in order to give effect to the following transactions (collectively the “Transactions”):

 

· On March 9, 2025, Rocket Companies, Inc. (“Rocket”) announced that it entered into an agreement to simplify its organizational and capital structure (the “Transaction Agreement”). Under the agreement, Rocket will collapse its current “Up-C” structure, provide that each class of common stock of Rocket will be entitled to one vote per share, and reduce its classes of common stock from four to two (the “Up-C Collapse”). As part of the Up-C Collapse:

 

· Rock Holdings Inc. (“RHI”) will contribute all assets and liabilities of RHI (other than its common limited liability company interests (the “Holdings LLC Units”) of Rocket, LLC (“Holdings LLC”), its shares of Class D common stock, par value $0.00001 per share of Rocket (“Class D common stock”) and equity interests in Rocket Community Fund, Woodward Insurance Holdings LLC and Woodward Insurance LLC (such entities collectively the “Retained Entities”)) to RHI II (as defined below), and thereafter RHI will merge with and into a wholly owned subsidiary of Rocket.

 

· Rocket will effect an internal reorganization pursuant to which the separate existence of Holdings LLC will cease and Eclipse Merger Limited Partnership (“Holdings LP”) will continue as the surviving entity and will be named “Rocket Limited Partnership,” and each issued and outstanding Holdings LLC Unit will be exchanged for a number of fully paid and nonassessable partnership units of Holdings LP (“Holdings LP Units”).

 

· Rocket will amend its certificate of incorporation to authorize a new class of Class L common stock, par value $0.00001 per share (“Class L common stock”). Each shareholder of RHI will receive a number of shares of Class L common stock equal to (1) the number of shares of RHI (“RHI Shares”) held by such RHI shareholder multiplied by (2) the ratio of the number of shares of Class D common stock owned by RHI to the number of all outstanding RHI Shares, which is currently estimated to be 56.54 shares of Class L common stock per each RHI Share. Mr. Gilbert, in consideration for his Class D common stock and paired Holdings LP Units, will receive a number of newly issued shares of Class L common stock equivalent to one share of Class L common stock for each share of Class D common stock held by Mr. Gilbert.

 

· Rocket and RHI II, LLC (“RHI II”) will enter into an Indemnity Agreement, pursuant to which, among other things, RHI II will indemnify Rocket for RHI’s liabilities that are not related to Rocket’s business.

 

· The Exchange Agreement between Rocket, RHI, Mr. Gilbert, and Holdings LP will be terminated, and certain information and other rights will be preserved through a separate letter agreement between Rocket and Mr. Gilbert.

 

· The Rock Acquisition Corporation Shareholders Agreement between RHI and its stockholders will be terminated.

 

· The Tax Receivable Agreement between Rocket, RHI and Mr. Gilbert (the “TRA”) and the Amended and Restated Limited Partnership Agreement of Holdings LP will each be amended. After this amendment, the TRA will not apply to any exchanges, including for the avoidance of doubt, any Holdings LLC Units exchanged as part of the reorganization described above, that occur on or following March 9, 2025. Additionally, RHI will contribute its rights to receive payments under the TRA in respect of RHI’s prior exchanges to RHI II, LLC, a Michigan limited liability company and a direct wholly owned subsidiary of RHI (“RHI II”), and RHI II will complete a joinder, and become party, to the TRA.

· Rocket paid a special cash dividend of $0.80 per share to holders of Class A common stock, par value $0.00001 per share (“Class A common stock”) as of March 20, 2025 (“Special Dividend”) on April 3, 2025.

 

· On March 9, 2025, Rocket, Neptune Merger Sub, Inc. (“Redfin Merger Sub”) and Redfin Corporation (“Redfin”) entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Redfin Merger Agreement”). Pursuant to the terms of the Redfin Merger Agreement, the acquisition of Redfin will be accomplished through a merger of Redfin Merger Sub with and into Redfin, with Redfin continuing as a direct wholly owned subsidiary of Rocket (the “Redfin Merger”). At the effective time of the Redfin Merger, each outstanding share of Redfin common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Redfin Shares”) (other than shares held by (i) Redfin, including in treasury, (ii) Rocket or (iii) Rocket’s subsidiaries, including Redfin Merger Sub), will be automatically converted into the right to receive 0.7926 shares of Rocket’s Class A common stock, and the cash payable in lieu of fractional shares of the merger consideration, without interest and subject to any applicable withholding taxes. The consummation of the Up-C Collapse, among other things, is a condition to closing of the Redfin Merger. The consummation of the Redfin Merger is not a condition to the consummation of the Mr. Cooper Mergers (as defined below).

 

· On March 31, 2025, Rocket, Maverick Merger Sub, Inc. (“Maverick Merger Subsidiary”), Maverick Merger Sub 2, LLC (“Forward Merger Subsidiary”) and Mr. Cooper Group Inc. (“Mr. Cooper”) entered into the Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Mr. Cooper Merger Agreement”). Pursuant to the Mr. Cooper Merger Agreement, and upon the terms and subject to the conditions therein and in accordance with the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”), Maverick Merger Subsidiary will merge with and into Mr. Cooper (the “Maverick Merger”), with Mr. Cooper surviving the Maverick Merger and continuing as a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of Rocket and immediately following such Maverick Merger, in accordance with the DGCL and the Delaware Limited Liability Company Act, Mr. Cooper will merge with and into Forward Merger Subsidiary (the “Forward Merger” and, together with the Maverick Merger, the “Mr. Cooper Mergers”), with Forward Merger Subsidiary surviving the Forward Merger. At the effective time of the Mr. Cooper Mergers, each outstanding share of Mr. Cooper common stock, par value $0.01 per share (other than Mr. Cooper common stock owned directly or indirectly by Rocket, Mr. Cooper, Maverick Merger Subsidiary or Forward Merger Subsidiary immediately prior to the Maverick Effective Time), will be automatically converted into the right to receive 11.00 shares of Rocket’s Class A common stock, and the cash payable in lieu of fractional shares of the merger consideration, without interest and subject to any applicable withholding taxes. The consummation of the Up-C Collapse, among other things, is a condition to closing of the Mr. Cooper Mergers. The consummation of the Mr. Cooper Mergers is not a condition to the consummation of the Redfin Merger.

 

· In connection with entering into the Mr. Cooper Merger Agreement, Rocket entered into a commitment letter (the “Commitment Letter”), dated as of March 31, 2025, with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., which was subsequently amended and restated on April 22, 2025 to include certain additional commitment parties (the “Commitment Parties”), pursuant to which, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein, the Commitment Parties have committed to provide a 364-day senior unsecured bridge term loan facility (the “Bridge Facility”) in an aggregate principal amount of up to $4,950 million, subject to the terms and conditions of the Commitment Letter.

 

· The Company does not anticipate drawing on the Bridge Facility, as it has incurred permanent financing in the form of $4,000 million of new senior unsecured notes due 2030 and 2033. Rocket intends to use the proceeds from the notes to (i) redeem Mr. Cooper’s 5.000% senior notes due 2026, 6.000% senior notes due 2027 and 5.500% senior notes due 2028 at redemption prices equal to 100% of the principal amount of such notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the redemption date, (ii) pay fees and expenses related to the issuance of the notes and the use of the proceeds therefrom, (iii) at Rocket’s discretion, redeem, purchase (including, if required, in a change of control offer) and/or amend Mr. Cooper’s 6.500% senior notes due 2029, 5.125% senior notes due 2030, 5.75% senior notes due 2031, and 7.125% senior notes due 2032 (collectively, all Mr. Cooper senior notes referenced in clauses (i) and (iii) above, the “Mr. Cooper Notes”), and pay fees and expenses in connection therewith (collectively, the “Finance Transactions”) and (iv) after the consummation of the Transactions, repay secured debt of Rocket and its consolidated subsidiaries (including Redfin, Mr. Cooper and their respective subsidiaries).

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of March 31, 2025 gives effect to the Transactions as if they had been completed on March 31, 2025 and combines the unaudited consolidated balance sheet of Rocket as of March 31, 2025 with the unaudited consolidated balance sheets of Redfin and Mr. Cooper, each as of March 31, 2025.

 

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of income (loss) for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and year ended December 31, 2024 gives effect to the Transactions as if they had occurred on January 1, 2024, the first day of Rocket’s fiscal year 2024. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of income (loss) for the three months ended March 31, 2025, combines the unaudited consolidated statement of income (loss) of Rocket for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and the unaudited consolidated statements of income (loss) of Redfin and Mr. Cooper, each for three months ended March 31, 2025. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of income (loss) for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 combines the audited consolidated statement of income (loss) of Rocket for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 and the audited consolidated statements of income (loss) of Redfin and Mr. Cooper, respectively each for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information contained herein does not give effect to any of the financial results of Rocket, Redfin, or Mr. Cooper following March 31, 2025.

 

See the risk factor titled “The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information included in this joint proxy and information statement/prospectus is inherently subject to uncertainties, is preliminary, and may differ materially from the Company’s financial performance and results of operations.” beginning on page [ ].

 

The historical consolidated financial statements of Rocket, Redfin, and Mr. Cooper have been adjusted in the accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information to give effect to the Transactions, which are necessary to account for the Transactions in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The unaudited pro forma adjustments are based upon available information and certain assumptions that our management believes are reasonable. The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information does not reflect the costs of any integration activities or benefits that may result from the realization of future cost savings from operating efficiencies, including the future impacts of Redfin’s 2025 multifamily rental listing arrangement with Zillow Inc. (“Zillow”), or any other business changes or synergies that may result from the Transactions. Based on known facts and circumstances and limited information available to reasonably estimate future impacts, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information does not reflect any transaction accounting adjustments related to Redfin’s multifamily listing arrangement with Zillow, except for recognition of intangibles and the related amortization, and presents the multifamily rental business consistent with Redfin’s historical unaudited consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2025.

 

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information should be read in conjunction with:

Accounting for the Transactions

 

The mergers pursuant to the Transaction Agreement (the “Up-C Collapse Mergers”) will be accounted for as an equity reorganization of Rocket, under which the stockholders of RHI become direct stockholders of Rocket. Pursuant to the Transaction Agreement, RHI stockholders will exchange their shares in RHI for shares of Class L common stock. At the effective time of the Up-C Collapse Mergers, it is expected that RHI’s only material assets will be its equity interests in Rocket and that RHI will have no material liabilities which would be required to be disclosed in its financial statements.

 

The Redfin Merger will be accounted for as a business combination using the acquisition method with Rocket as the accounting acquirer in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 805, Business Combinations. Under this method of accounting, the aggregate merger consideration will be allocated to Redfin’s assets acquired and liabilities assumed based upon their estimated fair values at the date of completion of the Redfin Merger. The process of valuing the net assets of Redfin immediately prior to the Redfin Merger, as well as evaluating accounting policies for conformity, is preliminary. Any differences between the estimated fair value of the consideration transferred and the estimated fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed will be recorded as goodwill. Accordingly, the aggregate merger consideration allocation and related adjustments reflected in this unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information are preliminary and subject to revision based on a final determination of fair value. Refer to Note 1 — Basis of Presentation for more information.

Notes to the Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information
($ In Thousands, Except Per Share Amounts or Unless Otherwise Noted)

 

Note 1 — Basis of Presentation

 

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information and related notes are prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X.

 

The pro forma financial statements, including all adjustments, were prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, presented in U.S. dollars, and give effect to each of the following transactions:

 

Up-C Collapse

 

As discussed in Note 2, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information reflects the effects of the Up-C Collapse, which was accounted for as a reorganization of entities under common control. The exchange of Class D common stock and Holdings LLC Units for newly issued shares of Class L common stock does not result in a change in control under U.S. GAAP. Accordingly, the historical carrying amounts of assets and liabilities will be retained. The elimination of the non-controlling interest in Holdings LLC as part of the Up-C Collapse will be accounted for in accordance with the guidance in ASC 810, Consolidation, with the difference between the carrying amount of the non-controlling interest and the consideration transferred reflected as an equity transaction.

 

Redfin Merger

 

As discussed in Note 3, certain reclassifications were made to conform the historical presentation of Redfin to that of Rocket’s financial statement presentation. Rocket is currently in the process of evaluating Redfin’s accounting policies, which will be finalized upon completion of the Redfin Merger, or as more information becomes available. As a result of that review, additional differences could be identified between the accounting policies of the two companies. With the information currently available, Rocket has determined that no significant adjustments are necessary to conform Redfin’s financial statements to the accounting policies used by Rocket.

 

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information was prepared by applying the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with ASC 805, with Rocket as the accounting acquirer, using the fair value concepts defined in ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement, and based on the historical financial statements of Rocket and Redfin. Under ASC 805, all assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination are recognized and measured at their assumed acquisition date fair value (or other measurement as directed by ASC 805), while transaction costs associated with the business combination are expensed as incurred. The excess of merger consideration over the estimated fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, if any, is allocated to goodwill.

 

The allocation of the aggregate merger consideration has been made for the purpose of developing the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information. This allocation of the aggregate merger consideration depends upon certain estimates and assumptions, all of which are preliminary. The final determination of fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed relating to the Redfin Merger could differ materially from the preliminary allocation of aggregate merger consideration. The final valuation will be based on the actual tangible and intangible assets and liabilities of Redfin existing at the acquisition date.

 

Mr. Cooper Mergers

 

As discussed in Note 6, certain reclassifications were made to conform the historical presentation of Mr. Cooper to that of Rocket’s financial statement presentation. Rocket is currently in the process of evaluating Mr. Cooper’s accounting policies, which will be finalized upon completion of the Mr. Cooper Mergers, or as more information becomes available. As a result of that review, additional differences could be identified between the accounting policies of the two companies. With the information currently available, Rocket has determined that no significant adjustments are necessary to conform Mr. Cooper’s financial statements to the accounting policies used by Rocket.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information was prepared by applying the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with ASC 805, with Rocket as the accounting acquirer, using the fair value concepts defined in ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement, and based on the historical financial statements of Rocket and Mr. Cooper. Under ASC 805, all assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination are recognized and measured at their assumed acquisition date fair value (or other measurement as directed by ASC 805), while transaction costs associated with the business combination are expensed as incurred. The excess of merger consideration over the estimated fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, if any, is allocated to goodwill.

 

The allocation of the aggregate merger consideration has been made for the purpose of developing the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information. This allocation of the aggregate merger consideration depends upon certain estimates and assumptions, all of which are preliminary. The final determination of fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed relating to the Mr. Cooper Mergers could differ materially from the preliminary allocation of aggregate merger consideration. The final valuation will be based on the actual tangible and intangible assets and liabilities of Mr. Cooper existing at the acquisition date.

 

The Financing Transactions

 

The Mr. Cooper Mergers will trigger change in control provisions contained in certain of Mr. Cooper’s outstanding debt facilities (including the Mr. Cooper Notes) that will require the repayment of such indebtedness. Consequently, Rocket entered into the Commitment Letter with the Commitment Parties, pursuant to which the Commitment Parties have committed to provide the Bridge Facility with a capacity up to $4,950 million. The Company does not expect to draw on the Bridge Facility, as it has incurred permanent financing in the form of $4,000 million of Senior Notes. Rocket intends to use the proceeds from the notes to fund the Finance Transactions, and after consummation of the Transactions, to repay secured debt of Rocket and its consolidated subsidiaries (including Redfin, Mr. Cooper, and their subsidiaries). The debt issuance costs associated with the notes will be capitalized and amortized over the term of the notes.

 

The assumptions and expectations regarding the aggregate principal amount of Mr. Cooper Notes to be repaid at closing are subject to change and resulting interest expense based on the final permanent financing could vary significantly from what is assumed in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information.

 

Overall Presentation

 

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet, as of March 31, 2025, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of income (loss) for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of income (loss) for the year ended December 31, 2024, presented herein, are based on the historical financial statements of Rocket, adjusted for the Up-C Collapse (as noted above), the Redfin Merger and the Mr. Cooper Mergers.

 

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of March 31, 2025 is presented as if the Transactions had occurred on March 31, 2025 and combines the historical balance sheet of Rocket as of March 31, 2025 with the historical balance sheets of Redfin and Mr. Cooper, each as of March 31, 2025.

 

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of income (loss) for the three months ended March 31, 2025 has been prepared as if the Transactions had occurred on January 1, 2024 and combines Rocket’s historical statement of income (loss) for the three months ended March 31, 2025 with the historical statements of income (loss) for Redfin and Mr. Cooper, each for the three months ended March 31, 2025.

Notes to the Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information (continued)
($ In Thousands, Except Per Share Amounts or Unless Otherwise Noted)

 

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of income (loss) for the year ended December 31, 2024 has been prepared as if the Transactions had occurred on January 1, 2024 and combines Rocket’s historical statement of income (loss) for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 with the historical statements of income (loss) for Redfin and Mr. Cooper, each for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024.

 

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information does not reflect any anticipated synergies or dyssynergies, operating efficiencies or cost savings that may result from the Redfin Merger or Mr. Cooper Mergers and integration costs that may be incurred. The pro forma adjustments represent management’s best estimates and are based upon currently available information and certain assumptions that Rocket believes are reasonable under the circumstances. Rocket is not aware of any material transactions between Rocket and Redfin, Rocket and Mr. Cooper, and Redfin and Mr. Cooper during the periods presented. Accordingly, adjustments to eliminate transactions between Rocket and Redfin, between Rocket and Mr. Cooper, and between Redfin and Mr. Cooper have not been reflected in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information.

 

Note 2 — Up-C Collapse Adjustments

 

Adjustments related to the Up-C Collapse in the accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of March 31, 2025 and the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of income (loss) for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and the year ended December 31, 2024 are as follows:

 

(a) Reflects the consolidation of the net assets and operations of the Retained Entities, net of eliminations, as a result of the Up-C Collapse Mergers.

 

(b) Reflects the reclassification of the accrual for the Special Dividend of $120.1 million to the holders of Rocket’s Class A common stock from Other liabilities to a reduction in Cash and cash equivalents. For the avoidance of doubt, the Special Dividend was paid to holders of Rocket’s Class A common stock on April 3, 2025, prior to the consummation of the Up-C Collapse.

 

As of March 31, 2025, Rocket had also recorded a $26.6 million accrual in Other liabilities on Rocket’s historical consolidated balance sheet related to dividend equivalents payable to holders of unvested service-based restricted stock units and performance-based restricted stock units. The underlying award agreements provide a contractual right for holders of these unvested awards to receive dividend equivalent payments upon vesting for any dividends declared during the vesting period. For the avoidance of doubt, the $0.80 per share amount of the Special Dividend declared and paid in April 2025 is separate from these dividend equivalent amounts and no pro forma adjustment has been made to the dividend equivalent accrual.

 

(c) Reflects the reversal of the deferred tax asset position of $510.5 million, the recognition of the deferred tax liability position of $716.0 million as a result of the Up-C Collapse, and the corresponding elimination of the non-controlling interest in Holdings LLC. Through the Up-C Collapse, Rocket is acquiring the Holdings Units held by Rocket’s chairman and RHI which have a book basis that is higher than the tax basis in the investment of Holdings LLC. This basis difference results in a deferred tax liability and the corresponding adjustment to Additional paid-in-capital. Retained earnings was also adjusted for the reversal of certain valuation allowances of $10.3 million, which was an indirect effect of the Up-C Collapse. The remaining $12.5 million of the deferred tax asset position was reclassified to Other assets as it would not be presented separately. See Note 2(h) for further discussion on the impact of the reversal of the valuation allowance on the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of income (loss) for the year ended December 31, 2024. There are a number of factors that will ultimately impact the final deferred tax position recorded by the consolidated group including operations before closing, potential changes in tax laws, and the mix of earnings. This determination is preliminary and subject to change.

($ In Thousands, Except Per Share Amounts or Unless Otherwise Noted)

 

(d) Reflects the change in the TRA liability of $15.6 million and the corresponding adjustment to Retained earnings due to the Up-C Collapse which results in changes to the estimates of tax rates and other variables used in the estimation of the TRA liability. The decrease in the TRA liability is also reflected as a reduction to Other expenses on the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of income (loss) for the year ended December 31, 2024.

 

(e) Reflects expected remaining non-recurring acquisition-related transaction costs of $1.3 million related to the Up-C Collapse, primarily for professional services. These estimated and to be incurred acquisition-related transaction costs are not reflected on the historical consolidated balance sheet of Rocket as of March 31, 2025, but are reflected in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of March 31, 2025 as an increase to Other liabilities and a corresponding adjustment to Retained earnings. These transaction costs are also presented as an increase to General and administrative expenses in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of income (loss) for the year ended December 31, 2024.

 

(f) Reflects the elimination of Non-controlling interest on the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet and the allocation of income (loss) to the non-controlling interest holders on the pro forma statement of income (loss) for the three months ended March 31, 2025, and year ended December 31, 2024, as a result of the transfer of 1,848,879,483 shares of Class D common stock and Holdings LLC Units in exchange for an equivalent number of shares of Class L common stock.

 

(g) Reflects the adjustments to Equity:

 

    Additional
paid-in capital
    Retained
earnings
    Non-controlling
interest
 
Pro forma Up-C Collapse adjustments:                        
(a)   Consolidation of net assets and operations of the Retained Entities   $ 5,314     $     $  
(b)   Special Dividend payment and Dividend equivalents payable to the holders of unvested RSUs                  
(c)   Reversal of the DTA and recognition of DTL     (1,236,747 )     10,302        
(d)   Change in the TRA liability           15,601        
(e)   Expected remaining non-recurring acquisition-related transaction costs           (1,291 )      
(f)   Elimination of non-controlling interest(1)     8,000,886             (8,000,886 )
Net pro forma transaction accounting adjustments to Equity:   $ 6,769,453     $ 24,612     $ (8,000,886 )

 

 

 

(1) Common stock reflects the impact of the exchange of Class D common stock for Class L common stock and the resulting reclass of par value.

 

(h) Reflects the estimated income tax provision assuming Rocket’s unaudited pro forma condensed combined Income (loss) before income taxes had been subject to federal and state income tax as a C-corporation utilizing an estimated blended statutory tax rate of approximately 24% for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and year ended December 31, 2024. The estimated blended statutory tax rate was computed assuming the valuation allowance of $10.3 million was released consistent with Note 2(c). The tax rate of the combined company could be significantly different (either higher or lower) depending on post-merger activities, including cash needs, the geographical mix of income (loss) and changes in tax law. Because the tax rates used for the pro forma financial information are estimated, the blended tax rate will likely vary from the actual effective tax rate in periods subsequent to completion of the Up-C Collapse. This determination is preliminary and subject to change.

Note 3 —  Redfin Reclassification Adjustments

 

During the preparation of the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information, Rocket’s management performed a preliminary analysis of Redfin’s financial information to identify differences in financial statement presentation as compared to the presentation of Rocket. Certain reclassification adjustments have been made to conform Redfin’s historical financial statement presentation to Rocket’s financial statement presentation. Following the Redfin Merger, the combined company will finalize the review of reclassifications, which could be materially different from the amounts set forth in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information presented herein.

 

In order to conform to the new presentation as of March 31, 2025, Rocket created a new financial statement line item in their balance sheet, Deferred tax liability, net, and as a result, has reclassified $17.2 million from Other liabilities to Deferred tax liability, net in Rocket’s presentation of its historical information on the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet.

Note 4 — Preliminary Purchase Price Allocation for Redfin Merger

 

Estimated Redfin Merger Consideration

 

The following table summarizes the preliminary estimated aggregate merger consideration for Redfin with reference to Rocket’s closing share price of $14.33 on June 25, 2025.

 

    Amount  
Estimated fair value of Rocket Class A common stock to be issued to Redfin stockholders(i)   $ 1,454,080  
Estimated fair value of converted Redfin equity awards attributable to pre-combination service(ii)     51,603  
Cash paid to pay off term loan, accrued interest, and prepayment premium(iii)     249,344  
Estimated Redfin acquisition-related transaction costs to be paid by Rocket(iv)     16,600  
Preliminary estimated merger consideration   $ 1,771,627  

 

 

(i) Value of estimated shares of Rocket Class A common stock issued is based on 128,022,988 shares of outstanding common stock of Redfin as of March 31, 2025 each being exchanged for 0.7926 of a share of Rocket Class A common stock issued at $14.33, the closing share price on June 25, 2025.

 

(ii) Certain unvested equity awards of Redfin will be replaced by Rocket’s equity awards with similar terms at closing. The vested portion of those awards, as well as awards that fully vest prior to the closing date, are included as consideration applying the same exchange ratio and share price as (i) above.

 

(iii) Cash paid to settle Redfin’s outstanding term loan principal, accrued interest, and a 1% prepayment premium triggered by the Redfin Merger.

 

(iv) Reflects Redfin’s transaction costs that will be paid in cash by Rocket as part of the Redfin Merger.

 

The preliminary estimated aggregate merger consideration could significantly differ from the amounts presented due to movements in Rocket’s share price up to the closing date. A sensitivity analysis related to the fluctuation in Rocket’s share price was performed to assess the impact a hypothetical change of 10% on the closing price of Rocket Class A common stock on June 25, 2025 would have on the estimated preliminary purchase price consideration and goodwill as of the closing date:

 

    Stock Price     Total Estimated
Consideration
    Change  
10% increase   $ 15.76     $ 1,922,195     $ 150,568  
10% decrease   $ 12.90     $ 1,621,059     $ (150,568 )

 

Preliminary Purchase Price Allocation

 

The assumed accounting for the Redfin Merger, including the preliminary merger consideration, is based on provisional amounts, and the associated purchase accounting is not final. The preliminary allocation of the purchase price to the acquired assets and assumed liabilities was based upon the preliminary estimate of fair values. For the preliminary estimate of fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed of Redfin, Rocket used benchmarking information from public precedent transactions as well as a variety of other sources, including market participant assumptions. Rocket is expected to use widely accepted income-based, market-based, and cost-based valuation approaches upon finalization of purchase accounting for the Redfin Merger. Actual results may differ materially from the assumptions within the accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information. The unaudited pro forma adjustments are based upon available information and certain assumptions that Rocket believes are reasonable under the circumstances. The purchase price adjustments relating to Redfin’s and Rocket’s combined financial information are preliminary and are subject to change, as additional information becomes available and as additional analyses are performed.

(ii) As a result of the Redfin Merger, Rocket expects to benefit from Redfin’s deferred tax asset balance, leading to net deferred tax assets of $221.1 million, offset by deferred tax liabilities of $171.8 million from book-tax basis differences arising from the preliminary purchase price allocation. Redfin’s historical deferred tax liability of $0.8 million is netted against the $49.3 million net deferred tax asset position above, resulting in an ending deferred tax asset position of $48.5 million, which is shown as a negative deferred tax liability as the combined company will be in a net deferred tax liability position. There are a number of factors that will ultimately impact the final deferred tax position recorded by the consolidated group including operations before closing, potential changes in tax laws, and the mix of earnings. This determination is preliminary and subject to change.

 

Note 5 — Redfin Merger Adjustments

 

The following pro forma adjustments have been reflected in the Redfin Transaction Accounting Adjustments column in the accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet and statements of income (loss). All adjustments are based on preliminary assumptions and valuations, which are subject to change.

 

a) Reflects the accelerated payoff of Redfin’s outstanding aggregate principal from its term loan and a 1% prepayment premium triggered by the Redfin Merger of $249.3 million, which is included as part of the consideration transferred. See Note 4 above. The adjustment reflects the extinguishment of the term loan debt and the write-off of unamortized deferred issuance costs of $3.9 million. See Note 5(e) for the corresponding elimination of the historical interest expense attributed to the term loan.

 

b) Reflects Redfin’s expected acquisition-related transaction costs of $16.6 million that will be paid in cash by Rocket as part of consideration transferred. See Note 4 above.

 

c) Represents the preliminary adjustment to goodwill of $869.0 million within Goodwill and intangible assets, net, which reflects the elimination of the historical goodwill of $461.3 million and the recognition of the preliminary estimate of goodwill in connection with the Redfin Merger of $1,330.3 million. See Note 4.

 

d) Represents the preliminary adjustment to intangible assets of $768.3 million within Goodwill and intangible assets, net, which reflects the elimination of historical intangibles of $46.7 million, and the preliminary estimate of the fair value of the acquired intangible assets of $815.0 million. This adjustment also eliminates $48.1 million representing the remaining balance as of March 31, 2025 of capitalized costs that Redfin had previously recharacterized from intangible assets to other assets related to the Zillow partnership announced in February 2025. Refer to Note 4 above for additional information on the acquired intangible assets expected to be recognized. The pro forma impacts reflected in Depreciation and amortization as a result of the adjustment to intangible assets are shown in the table below:

 

    For the Three Months
Ended
March 31, 2025
    For the Year Ended
December 31, 2024
 
Pro forma transaction accounting adjustments:                
Removal of historical Redfin amortization of intangible assets and contract asset(1)   $ (4,828 )   $ (23,741 )
Amortization of intangible assets     40,759       163,036  
Net pro forma transaction accounting adjustment to Depreciation and amortization   $ 35,931     $ 139,295  

 

 

(1) In March 2025, Redfin had a recharacterization of intangibles assets on its consolidated balance sheet to contract asset as part of the Zillow partnership agreement entered into in February 2025.

A 10% change in the valuation of intangible assets would cause a corresponding increase or decrease in the amortization expense of approximately $4.1 million and $16.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and year ended December 31, 2024, respectively. Pro forma amortization is preliminary and based on the use of straight-line amortization. The amount of amortization following the Redfin Merger may differ significantly between periods based upon the final value assigned and amortization methodology used for each identifiable intangible asset.

 

e) Reflects the preliminary purchase accounting adjustment to reduce the senior convertible notes by $48.0 million down to their fair value. The pro forma impact reflected in Interest and amortization expense on non-funding debt as a result of the adjustment to debt, and based on an 6.9% weighted average effective interest rate, is calculated in the table below:

 

    For the Three Months
Ended
March 31, 2025
    For the Year Ended
December 31, 2024
 
Pro forma transaction accounting adjustments:                
Removal of historical interest expense(1)   $ (7,782 )   $ (27,707 )
Pro forma interest expense     7,943       32,380  
Net pro forma transaction accounting adjustment to Interest and amortization expense on non-funding debt   $ 161     $ 4,673  

 

 

(1) Inclusive of the historical interest expense incurred in connection with the Redfin term loan that is assumed to be settled as a result of the change-in-control.

 

f) Reflects an increase in Rocket’s TRA liability of $6.5 million and an increase in its deferred tax liability of $5.5 million indirectly resulting from the Redfin Merger. The corresponding offsetting adjustment is recorded through Retained earnings. The increases in the TRA liability and the deferred tax liability are reflected as increases to Other expenses and Provision for income taxes on the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of income (loss), respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2024.

 

g) Reflects the decrease to Rocket’s deferred tax liabilities of $49.3 million recognized from the Redfin Merger. See Note 4.

 

h) Reflects expected remaining non-recurring acquisition-related transaction costs of $13.3 million related to the Redfin Merger, primarily for professional services. These estimated and to be incurred acquisition-related transaction costs are not reflected on the historical consolidated balance sheet of Rocket as of March 31, 2025, but are reflected in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of March 31, 2025 as an increase to Other liabilities and a decrease to Retained earnings, with a corresponding increase to General and administrative expenses in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of income (loss) for the year ended December 31, 2024.

k) The estimated income tax impact on Redfin’s loss before income taxes, inclusive of the pro forma adjustments, utilizing an estimated blended statutory tax rate of approximately 24% for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and year ended December 31, 2024, as a result of the release of certain valuation allowance amounts in the Redfin Merger. The tax rate of the combined company could be significantly different (either higher or lower) depending on post-merger activities, including cash needs, the geographical mix of income (loss) and changes in tax law. Because the tax rates used for the pro forma financial information are estimated, the blended tax rate will likely vary from the actual effective tax rate in periods subsequent to completion of the Redfin Merger. The determination of the income tax impact is preliminary and subject to change based upon the final determination of the fair value of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities.

Note 6 — Mr. Cooper Reclassification Adjustments

 

During the preparation of the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information, Rocket’s management performed a preliminary analysis of Mr. Cooper’s financial information to identify differences in financial statement presentation as compared to the presentation of Rocket. Certain reclassification adjustments have been made to conform Mr. Cooper’s historical financial statement presentation to Rocket’s financial statement presentation. Following the Mr. Cooper Mergers, the combined company will finalize the review of reclassifications, which could be materially different from the amounts set forth in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information presented herein.

 

In order to conform to the new presentation as of March 31, 2025, Rocket created two new financial statement line items on its balance sheet: (i) MSR and Advance facilities, net and (ii) MSR related liabilities — nonrecourse at fair value. These new line items are comprised solely of the respective historical balances from Mr. Cooper’s consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2025 as Rocket did not have any existing balances to reclassify.

Notes to the Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information (continued)
($ In Thousands, Except Per Share Amounts or Unless Otherwise Noted)

 

The preliminary estimated aggregate merger consideration could significantly differ from the amounts presented due to movements in Rocket’s share price up to the closing date. A sensitivity analysis related to the fluctuation in Rocket’s share price was performed to assess the impact a hypothetical change of 10% on the closing price of Rocket common stock on June 25, 2025 would have on the estimated preliminary purchase price consideration and goodwill as of the closing date:

 

    Stock Price     Total Estimated
Consideration
    Change  
10% increase   $ 15.76     $ 15,355,122     $ 1,022,846  
10% decrease   $ 12.90     $ 13,309,430     $ (1,022,846 )

 

Preliminary Purchase Price Allocation

 

The assumed accounting for the Mr. Cooper Mergers, including the preliminary merger consideration, is based on provisional amounts, and the associated purchase accounting is not final. The preliminary allocation of the purchase price to the acquired assets and assumed liabilities was based upon the preliminary estimate of fair values. For the preliminary estimate of fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed of Mr. Cooper, Rocket used benchmarking information from public precedent transactions as well as a variety of other sources, including market participant assumptions. Rocket is expected to use widely accepted income-based, market-based, and cost-based valuation approaches upon finalization of purchase accounting for the Mr. Cooper Mergers. Actual results may differ materially from the assumptions within the accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information. The unaudited pro forma adjustments are based upon available information and certain assumptions that Rocket believes are reasonable under the circumstances. The purchase price adjustments relating to Mr. Cooper’s and Rocket’s combined financial information are preliminary and are subject to change, as additional information becomes available and as additional analyses are performed.

 

The following table summarizes the preliminary purchase price allocation, as if the Mr. Cooper Mergers had been completed on March 31, 2025:

 

    Amount  
Estimated Merger Consideration:   $ 14,332,276  
Cash and cash equivalents(i)     656,162  
Restricted cash     166,162

(iii) As a result of the Mr. Cooper Mergers, Rocket will recognize additional deferred tax liabilities of $358.4 million from book-tax basis differences arising from the preliminary purchase price allocation. Mr. Cooper’s historical net deferred tax asset of $217.5 million is netted against the deferred tax liability, resulting in Rocket’s net increase to deferred tax liability of $140.9 million related to the Mr. Cooper Mergers. There are a number of factors that will ultimately impact the final deferred tax position recorded by the consolidated group including operations before closing, potential changes in tax laws, and the mix of earnings. This determination is preliminary and subject to change.

 

Note 8 — Mr. Cooper Mergers Adjustments

 

The following pro forma adjustments have been reflected in the Mr. Cooper Transaction Accounting Adjustments column in the accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet and statement of income (loss). All adjustments are based on preliminary assumptions and valuations, which are subject to change.

 

a) Reflects the accelerated payoff of the Mr. Cooper Notes and accrued interest, which is included as part of the consideration transferred. See Note 7 above. The adjustment to Senior Notes, net reflects the extinguishment of $3,950 million aggregate principal amount of Mr. Cooper Notes, a fair value adjustment of $37.9 million, on the assumed Mr. Cooper senior notes due 2032, and the write-off of unamortized deferred issuance costs of $53.8 million. The adjustment to Other liabilities reflects the elimination of accrued interest of $60.7 million. A corresponding adjustment to Interest and amortization expense on non-funding debt reflects the elimination of the historical interest expense attributed to the Mr. Cooper Notes of $79.4 million and $281.8 million, and amortization of the fair value adjustment of the assumed Mr. Cooper Notes of $1.0 million and $3.7 million in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of income (loss) for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and year ended December 31, 2024, respectively.

Notes to the Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information (continued)
($ In Thousands, Except Per Share Amounts or Unless Otherwise Noted)

 

The assumptions and expectations regarding the aggregate principal amount of Mr. Cooper Notes to be repaid at closing are subject to change and resulting interest expense based on the final permanent financing could vary significantly from what is assumed in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information.

 

b) Reflects Mr. Cooper’s expected acquisition-related transaction costs of $93.1 million that will be paid in cash by Rocket as part of consideration transferred and the dividend payment of $128.0 million, which will be paid out prior to closing.

 

c) Represents the preliminary adjustment to goodwill of $4,257.7 million within Goodwill and intangible assets, net, which reflects the elimination of the historical goodwill of $141.3 million and the recognition of the preliminary estimate of goodwill in connection with the Mr. Cooper Mergers of $4,399.0 million.

 

d) Represents the preliminary adjustment to intangible assets of $1,752.1 million within Goodwill and intangible assets, net, which reflects the elimination of historical intangibles of $107.9 million and the preliminary estimate of the fair value of the acquired intangible assets of $1,860.0 million.

 

The pro forma impacts reflected in Depreciation and amortization as a result of the adjustment to intangible assets are shown in the table below:

 

    For the Three Months
Ended
March 31, 2025
    For the Year
Ended
December 31, 2024
 
Pro forma transaction accounting adjustments:                
Removal of historical Mr. Cooper amortization of intangible assets   $ (10,474 )   $ (13,874 )
Amortization of intangible assets     67,917       271,667  
Net pro forma transaction accounting adjustment to Depreciation and amortization   $ 57,443     $ 257,793  

 

A 10% change in the valuation of intangible assets would cause a corresponding increase or decrease in the amortization expense of approximately $6.8 million and $27.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and year ended December 31, 2024, respectively. Pro forma amortization is preliminary and based on the use of straight-line amortization. The amount of amortization following the Mr. Cooper Mergers may differ significantly between periods based upon the final value assigned and amortization methodology used for each identifiable intangible asset.

 

e) Reflects a decrease in Rocket’s TRA liability of $1.6 million and a decrease in its deferred tax liability of $1.0 million indirectly resulting from the Mr. Cooper Mergers. The corresponding offsetting adjustment is recorded through Retained earnings. The decrease in the TRA liability and the net deferred tax liability are reflected as a reduction to Other expenses and Provision for income taxes on the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of income (loss), respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2024.

g) Reflects expected remaining non-recurring acquisition-related transaction costs of $35.3 million related to the Mr. Cooper Mergers, primarily for professional services. These estimated and to be incurred acquisition-related transaction costs are not reflected on the historical consolidated balance sheet of Rocket as of March 31, 2025, but are reflected in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of March 31, 2025 as an increase to Other liabilities and a decrease to Retained earnings, with a corresponding adjustment to General and administrative expenses in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of income (loss) for the year ended December 31, 2024.

i) Reflects the adjustment to Salaries, commissions and team member benefits with respect to the incremental stock-based compensation expense for Rocket replacement equity awards. See Note 7 for further discussion around the fair value of the vested portion of awards allocated to the pre-combination period.

 

    For the Three Months
Ended
March 31, 2025
    For the Year
Ended
December 31, 2024
 
Pro forma transaction accounting adjustments:                
Removal of historical Mr. Cooper stock-based compensation expense   $ (14,000 )   $ (37,000 )
Record stock-based compensation expense from replacement awards     14,739       86,724  
Net pro forma transaction accounting adjustment to Salaries, commissions, and team member benefits   $ 739     $ 49,724  

 

The new annualized stock-based compensation expense from replacement equity awards includes the exchange of unvested service-based restricted stock units (“RSUs”) measured at fair value as of the acquisition date, as well as exchanged unvested performance-based restricted stock units (“PSUs”) based on an assumed maximum performance (200% attainment of the underlying performance criteria). The actual number of Mr. Cooper PSUs exchanged for Rocket time-based RSUs will be determined prior to the acquisition date, generally based on actual performance.

j) The estimated income tax impact on Mr. Cooper’s income before income taxes, inclusive of the pro forma adjustments, utilizing an estimated blended statutory tax rate of approximately 24% for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and year ended December 31, 2024. The tax rate of the combined company could be significantly different (either higher or lower) depending on post-merger activities, including cash needs, the geographical mix of income (loss) and changes in tax law. Because the tax rates used for the pro forma financial information are estimated, the blended tax rate will likely vary from the actual effective tax rate in periods subsequent to completion of the Mr. Cooper Mergers. The determination of the income tax impact is preliminary and subject to change based upon the final determination of the fair value of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities.

 

Note 9 — Financing Adjustments

 

a) Reflects the issuance by Rocket of senior notes totaling $4,000 million in principal to replace existing indebtedness that would be triggered by a change in control provision, and net of estimated deferred financing costs of $80.6 million.

 

b) Reflects the payoff of third-party fees related to the assumed Mr. Cooper Notes. The adjustment reflects an elimination of these fees in Cash and cash equivalents and a decrease to Retained earnings of $3.0 million in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of March 31, 2025. Additionally, a corresponding adjustment reflects the pro forma impact of the third-party fees in General and administrative expense for the year ended December 31, 2024.

 

c) The non-recurring Bridge Facility fees of $37.1 million were reflected on the consolidated balance sheet of the Company as of March 31, 2025,recorded in Other assets. The adjustment reflects an elimination of these fees in Other assets and a decrease to Retained earnings in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of March 31, 2025. Additionally, a corresponding adjustment reflects the pro forma impact of the non-recurring Bridge Facility fees in Interest and amortization expense on non-funding debt for the year ended December 31, 2024.

 

d) Reflects the pro forma impact for interest expense and amortization of deferred financing costs of the senior notes issued by Rocket and assumed Mr. Cooper Notes in Interest and amortization expense on non-funding debt, $83.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and $333.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2024.

 

e) The estimated income tax impact on the financing pro forma adjustments, utilizing an estimated blended statutory tax rate of approximately 24% for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and year ended December 31, 2024.
