McLean, VA — Freddie Mac (OTCQB: FMCC) today reported net income of $2.7 billion for the fourth quarter of 2021, a decrease of 6% year-over-year, as higher net revenues were offset by an increase in credit-related expense. The company reported comprehensive income of $2.7 billion for the fourth quarter of 2021, an increase of 8% year-over-year.
Net revenues for the fourth quarter of 2021 increased 11% year-over-year to $5.6 billion, primarily driven by higher net interest income. Net interest income for the fourth quarter of 2021 increased 30% year-over-year to $4.8 billion, primarily driven by continued mortgage portfolio growth and higher average portfolio guarantee fee rates in Single-Family.
Credit-related expense for the fourth quarter of 2021 was $0.6 billion, compared to credit-related income of $0.1 billion in the fourth quarter of 2020. Credit-related expense for the fourth quarter of 2021 included a provision for credit losses of $0.1 billion. Credit-related income for the fourth quarter of 2020 included a benefit for credit losses of $0.8 billion, which was primarily driven by a reserve release due to realized house price appreciation.
Full-Year 2021 Financial Results
Freddie Mac reported net income of $12.1 billion for full-year 2021, an increase of 65% year-over-year, primarily driven by higher net revenues and a credit reserve release in Single-Family. The company reported comprehensive income of $11.6 billion for full-year 2021, an increase of 54% year-over-year.
Net revenues for full-year 2021 increased 32% year-over-year to $22.0 billion, primarily driven by higher net interest income and higher net investment gains. Net interest income for full-year 2021 increased 38% year-over-year to $17.6 billion, primarily driven by continued mortgage portfolio growth, higher average portfolio guarantee fee rates, and higher deferred fee income recognition in Single-Family. The increase in net investment gains for full-year 2021 was primarily due to higher gains on Multifamily securitization activities.
Credit-related expense for full-year 2021 decreased 56% year-over-year to $1.0 billion, driven by a reserve release due to realized house price appreciation and improving economic conditions throughout 2021, partially offset by a decrease in credit enhancement recoveries. Credit-related expense for full-year 2020 was primarily driven by the negative economic effects of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Fourth Quarter 2021 Key Drivers
Net income and comprehensive income increased year-over-year, mainly driven by:
•Higher net interest income primarily due to continued mortgage portfolio growth and higher average portfolio guarantee fee rates, partially offset by
•Credit-related expense compared to credit-related income in the fourth quarter of 2020. Credit-related income in the fourth quarter of 2020 was primarily driven by a reserve release due to realized house price appreciation.
Full-Year 2021 Key Drivers
Net income and comprehensive income increased year-over-year, mainly driven by:
•Higher net interest income primarily due to continued mortgage portfolio growth, higher average portfolio guarantee fee rates, and higher deferred fee income recognition.
•Lower credit-related expense driven by a reserve release due to realized house price appreciation and improving economic conditions throughout 2021, partially offset by a decrease in credit enhancement recoveries. Credit-related expense in full-year 2020 was primarily driven by the negative economic effects of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Fourth Quarter 2021 Key Drivers
Net income and comprehensive income decreased year-over-year, mainly driven by:
•Lower guarantee income as continued growth in the Multifamily guarantee portfolio was offset by the impacts of adverse spread changes and loan prepayment activity on the fair values of guarantee assets.
•Lower net investment gains due to spread widening and a smaller volume of loan purchase and securitization activity.
Full-Year 2021 Key Drivers
Net income increased and comprehensive income decreased year-over-year, mainly driven by:
•Lower guarantee income as continued growth in the Multifamily guarantee portfolio was offset by the impacts of higher interest rates on the fair values of guarantee assets.
•Higher net investment gains primarily due to higher pricing margins for new loan purchases and greater spread tightening, partially offset by a smaller volume of new loan purchases as a result of a reduced Multifamily loan purchase cap in 2021.

About Freddie Mac’s Conservatorship
Since September 2008, Freddie Mac has been operating under conservatorship with FHFA as Conservator. The support provided by Treasury pursuant to the Purchase Agreement enables the company to maintain access to the debt markets and have adequate liquidity to conduct its normal business operations. The amount of funding available to Freddie Mac under the Purchase Agreement was $140.2 billion at December 31, 2021.
Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, Freddie Mac will not be required to pay a dividend to Treasury on the senior preferred stock until it has built sufficient capital to meet the capital requirements and buffers set forth in the Enterprise Regulatory Capital Framework. As a result, the company was not required to pay a dividend to Treasury on the senior preferred stock in December 2021. As the company builds capital during this period, the quarterly increases in its Net Worth Amount have been, or will be, added to the aggregate liquidation preference of the senior preferred stock. The liquidation preference of the senior preferred stock increased to $98.0 billion on December 31, 2021 based on the $2.9 billion increase in the Net Worth Amount during the third quarter of 2021, and will increase to $100.7 billion on March 31, 2022 based on the $2.7 billion increase in the Net Worth Amount during the fourth quarter of 2021.
