Fitch raised Mr. Cooper's credit rating from BB to BBB- and set a stable outlook, but then withdrew the rating after Rocket Companies completed the acquisition. The rating for senior unsecured debt of Nationstar Mortgage Holdings was also raised from BB to BBB- before the withdrawal and later cancelled. Fitch said the actions were prompted by the redemption, offering or exchange of outstanding Nationstar bonds and the reorganisation following the acquisition by Rocket Companies completed on Oct. 1. » Más en de.investing.com

Moody’s raised the Corporate Family Rating (CFR) of Mr. Cooper Group from Ba3 to Ba1 following the acquisition by Rocket Companies and upgraded several senior unsecured bond ratings from B1 to Ba1. As part of the transaction, many Mr. Cooper bonds were repaid, exchanged or assumed by Rocket; Moody’s will therefore withdraw Mr. Cooper’s CFR and the long‑term issuer rating of Nationstar Mortgage LLC going forward. Moody’s also affirms Ba1 ratings for Rocket Companies and Rocket Mortgage with a stable outlook and sets out conditions for possible further upgrades or downgrades, such as improved profitability, higher tangible common equity ratios, or a decline in those metrics. » Más en de.investing.com

Analysts summarize a bullish thesis that Rocket Companies’ all-stock acquisition of Mr. Cooper and ongoing tech and AI automation create a vertically integrated mortgage platform with faster closings, lower servicing costs and high refinance recapture, positioning the company to gain market share and improve profitability. The combined scale, Mr. Cooper’s servicing advantages and Rocket’s automation are argued to provide durable competitive advantages despite recent revenue pressure and high P/E multiples. The write-up notes growing hedge fund ownership but suggests some investors prefer AI names with less downside risk. » Más en finance.yahoo.com
