Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of FoA and its controlled subsidiaries. The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States (“U.S.”) generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial statements and pursuant to the accounting and disclosure rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). The accompanying financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair statement of its financial condition as of June 30, 2024, its results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, and its cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023. The Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition at December 31, 2023 was derived from audited financial statements but does not contain all of the footnote disclosures from the annual financial statements. Operating results for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any future period or for the full year. The condensed consolidated financial statements, including the significant accounting policies, should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes as of and for the year ended December 31, 2023 within the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K.
The significant accounting policies, together with the other Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, are an integral part of the condensed consolidated financial statements. Where applicable, the significant accounting policies have been updated below for the presentation changes in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. On July 25, 2024, the Company completed a 1-for-10 reverse stock split (the “Reverse Stock Split”) of its shares of Class A Common Stock. FoA Equity completed a corresponding 1-for-10 reverse split of its units (“Class A LLC Units”) to maintain the 1-for-1 parity of its Class A LLC Units with the Company’s adjusted number of Class A Common Stock shares. All references in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to numbers of Class A Common Stock shares, weighted average shares outstanding, loss per share, FoA Class A Common Stock share price, and number of Class A LLC Units have been adjusted to reflect the Reverse Stock Split on a retroactive basis. As a result of the Reverse Stock Split, an immaterial amount was reclassified from Class A Common Stock to additional paid-in capital in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. Refer to Note 21 - Subsequent Events for additional information.

Use of Estimates
The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Estimates regarding loans held for investment, subject to HMBS related obligations, loans held for investment, subject to nonrecourse debt, loans held for investment, HMBS related obligations, and nonrecourse debt are particularly subject to change. Actual results may differ from those estimates and assumptions due to factors such as changes in the economy, interest rates, secondary market pricing, prepayment assumptions, home prices, or discrete events affecting specific borrowers, and such differences could be material.

| Loans Held for Investment, Subject to HMBS Related Obligations, at Fair Value, Loans Held for Investment, Subject to Nonrecourse Debt, at Fair Value, and Loans Held for Investment, at Fair Value |
Loans Held for Investment, Subject to HMBS Related Obligations, at Fair Value, Loans Held for Investment, Subject to Nonrecourse Debt, at Fair Value, and Loans Held for Investment, at Fair Value
The yield recognized on loans held for investment, subject to HMBS related obligations, loans held for investment, subject to nonrecourse debt, and loans held for investment is recorded in interest income in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and includes the recognition of interest income that is expected to be collected based on the stated interest rates of the loans. The difference between the cost basis of newly originated or acquired loans and their estimated fair value is recognized in the net origination gains component of net fair value changes on loans and related obligations in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Certain HECM and non-agency reverse mortgage loans originated or acquired by the Company include broker compensation or correspondent fees. These premiums are remitted to the mortgage broker or correspondent lender who acted as the intermediary for the reverse mortgage. Broker compensation and correspondent fees are recorded on a net basis in net origination gains and therefore are not separately presented in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Through the servicing of HECM loans, the Company generates tails. Tails consist of subsequent borrower draws, mortgage insurance premiums, service fees, and other advances, which the Company is able to subsequently pool into a security. The fair value gain recognized on the securitization of tails is recorded in gain on securitization of HECM tails, net, in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Changes in estimated fair value are recorded in net fair value changes on loans and related obligations, with changes in fair value due to portfolio runoff and realization of modeled income and expenses being recorded in fair value changes from model amortization in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, and other fair value changes being recorded in fair value changes from market inputs or model assumptions in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Retained Bonds, at Fair Value The yield recognized on retained bonds is recorded in interest income in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and includes the contractual interest income that is expected to be collected based on the stated interest rates of the bonds. The changes in estimated fair value are recorded in net fair value changes on loans and related obligations, with changes in fair value due to portfolio runoff and realization of modeled income and expenses being recorded in fair value changes from model amortization in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, and other fair value changes being recorded in fair value changes from market inputs or model assumptions in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

| HMBS Related Obligations, at Fair Value and Nonrecourse Debt, at Fair Value |
HMBS Related Obligations, at Fair Value, and Nonrecourse Debt, at Fair Value The interest on the HMBS related obligations and nonrecourse debt is recorded in interest expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and includes recognition of contractual interest expense based on the stated interest rates of the obligations and amortization of any discount at which the related bonds were issued. The discount is amortized to interest expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations over the expected life of the note using the effective interest method. The changes in estimated fair value are recorded in net fair value changes on loans and related obligations, with changes in fair value due to portfolio runoff and realization of modeled income and expenses being recorded in fair value changes from model amortization in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, and other fair value changes being recorded in fair value changes from market inputs or model assumptions in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
