Fannie Mae Reports Net Income of $4.3 Billion for First Quarter 2024
$4.3 billion net income for the first quarter of 2024, with net worth reaching $82.0 billion as of March 31, 2024
"Fannie Mae reported strong results in the first quarter, delivering $4.3 billion in net income, marking our twenty-fifth consecutive quarter of positive earnings. The strength of the U.S. economy, higher single-family home prices, and the credit quality of our book of business continue to be important factors affecting our performance. This quarter, we provided $72 billion in liquidity to the U.S. housing market. This helped 280,000 households buy, refinance, or rent a home and reflects our strong commitment to managing risk and fulfilling our vital role supporting America's housing finance system."

Priscilla Almodovar

Financial Highlights
Net income increased $377 million in the first quarter of 2024 compared with the fourth quarter of 2023, primarily driven by a $579 million shift to fair value gains in the first quarter of 2024 from fair value losses in the fourth quarter of 2023 as well as a $296 million shift to a benefit for credit losses in the first quarter of 2024 from provision for credit losses in the fourth quarter of 2023, partially offset by a decrease in net interest income.
Net interest income decreased in the first quarter of 2024 compared with the fourth quarter of 2023 primarily driven by decreases in deferred guaranty fee income and net interest income from portfolios.
Fair value gains were $480 million in the first quarter of 2024, compared with fair value losses of $99 million in the fourth quarter of 2023. Fair value gains in the first quarter of 2024 were driven by increases in interest rates.
Benefit for credit losses was $180 million in the first quarter of 2024, compared with a provision of $116 million in the fourth quarter of 2023. The benefit for credit losses in the first quarter of 2024 reflects a $335 million single-family benefit for credit losses, partially offset by a $155 million multifamily provision for credit losses.
• The single-family benefit for credit losses in the first quarter of 2024 was primarily driven by a benefit from forecasted home price growth, partially offset by a provision from changes in loan activity and a provision relating to actual and projected interest rates.
• The multifamily provision for credit losses in the first quarter of 2024 was primarily driven by declining actual and near-term projected property values on the company's overall multifamily guaranty book, as well as increases in actual and projected interest rates compared to the company's prior forecast.

Key Business Highlights
Single-family conventional acquisition volume was $62.3 billion in the first quarter of 2024, compared with $70.1 billion in the fourth quarter of 2023. Purchase acquisition volume, of which more than 45% was for first-time homebuyers, decreased to $53.0 billion in the first quarter of 2024 from $61.7 billion in the fourth quarter of 2023. Refinance acquisition volume was $9.3 billion in the first quarter of 2024, an increase from $8.4 billion in the fourth quarter of 2023.
The average single-family conventional guaranty book of business decreased by $6.9 billion to $3,631 billion in the first quarter of 2024 compared with the fourth quarter of 2023, driven by liquidations outpacing acquisition volumes during the quarter. The overall credit characteristics of the single-family conventional guaranty book of business remained strong, with a weighted-average mark-to-market loan-to-value ratio of 51% and a weighted-average FICO credit score at origination of 753 as of March 31, 2024.
The average charged guaranty fee, net of TCCA fees, on the single-family conventional guaranty book increased slightly to 47.4 basis points in the first quarter of 2024, primarily as a result of higher base guaranty fees charged on new acquisitions. The average charged guaranty fee on newly acquired single-family conventional loans, net of TCCA fees, increased slightly to 54.8 basis points in the first quarter of 2024.
The single-family serious delinquency rate decreased to 0.51% as of March 31, 2024 from 0.55% as of December 31, 2023. Single-family seriously delinquent loans are loans that are 90 days or more past due or in the foreclosure process.

Key Business Highlights
New multifamily business volume was $10.1 billion in the first quarter of 2024, compared with $11.2 billion in the fourth quarter of 2023.
The multifamily guaranty book of business grew by 1% in the first quarter of 2024 to $476.9 billion driven by the company's acquisitions combined with low prepayment volumes due to the high interest rate environment.
The average charged guaranty fee on the multifamily guaranty book declined slightly to 75.8 basis points as of March 31, 2024, primarily due to lower average charged fees on the company's 2024 acquisitions as compared with the existing loans in the multifamily guaranty book of business.
The multifamily serious delinquency rate decreased to 0.44% as of March 31, 2024, compared with 0.46% as of December 31, 2023. Multifamily seriously delinquent loans are loans that are 60 days or more past due.
