The following tables present a reconciliation of the changes in fair value of certain Level 3 assets and liabilities that we measure at fair value on a recurring basis (refer to the respective notes for other Level 3 assets and liabilities):

(1)IRLC activity (issuances and transfers) represent changes in fair value included in earnings. This activity is presented on a gross basis in the table for disclosure purposes. Total net change in fair value included in earnings attributed to IRLCs is a gain (loss) of $(12.3) million and $9.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. See Note 15 – Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedging Activities. A reconciliation from the beginning balances to the ending balances of Reverse loans held for sale pooled into HMBS, HMBS-related borrowings, MSRs and MSR related financing liabilities that we measure at fair value on a recurring basis is disclosed in Note 5 - Reverse Mortgages, Note 7 – Mortgage Servicing and Note 8 — MSR Related Financing Liabilities, at Fair Value, respectively.
(2)For three months ended March 31, 2025, transfers from loans held for investment, at fair value.
