Redwood Trust, Inc.

Redwood Trust, Inc., along with its affiliated entities, functions as a specialized financial services firm operating throughout the United States. Its diverse operations are structured across four main segments: Sequoia Mortgage Banking, CoreVest Mortgage Banking, Redwood Investments, and Legacy Investments. The Sequoia Mortgage Banking segment acts as an intermediary, acquiring residential mortgage loans from external originators. These acquired loans are subsequently either resold, packaged into securities, or integrated into Redwood's proprietary investment portfolio. CoreVest Mortgage Banking manages a distinct platform dedicated to originating loans for residential property investors, which are then securitized, sold, or allocated to the Redwood Investments portfolio or joint ventures. This segment also strategically employs various derivative financial instruments to mitigate specific risks associated with its inventory of loans earmarked for sale. The Redwood Investments segment primarily targets investment opportunities that are sensitive to housing credit risk. These opportunities are generated internally through the company's operational platforms, where it maintains rigorous control over underwriting processes and collateral evaluation. Moving forward, this portfolio will increasingly emphasize retained interests stemming from the company's own securitization activities and other investment vehicles, rather than relying on third-party securities, reflecting Redwood's strategic pivot towards internally sourced investments. Finally, the Legacy Investments segment comprises holdings that are no longer aligned with the company's core strategic objectives. These include older, unsecuritized bridge and term loans, securities backed by residential loans that have resumed performance, and other non-essential legacy assets. These assets are currently in the active process of divestment, liquidation, or other forms of disposition as part of an accelerated strategic realignment of Redwood's business model. Redwood Trust, Inc. was established in 1994 and its corporate headquarters are located in Mill Valley, California.
