The first quarter marked another important step forward in our strategy to raise awareness about the importance of home equity for homeowners 55 and up and position reverse mortgages as a preferred tool to unlock housing wealth. We continue to lead with innovation, scale, and customer trust. As a result, we delivered $561 million in funded volume during the first quarter, exceeding our guidance range of $525-$550 million. That marks our fourth consecutive quarter of volume growth and a 32% improvement over the first quarter of 2024. During the quarter, we benefited from a modestly lower rate environment, with the 10-year treasury falling roughly 35 basis points, which was partially offset by widening spreads. On the whole, this resulted in a broadly positive fair value environment, creating a tailwind for our performance. From a financial performance perspective, we generated $80 million in GAAP net income or $3.17 basic earnings per share. On an adjusted basis, the company earned $13 million in adjusted net income or $0.52 per share, an improvement of $20 million from the first quarter of 2024. We remain on track to meet our full-year guidance of $2.4 billion-$2.7 billion in funded volume and $2.60-$3 in adjusted earnings per share. Beyond the numbers, Q1 marked a strategic turning point in how we engage with borrowers and reshape industry perception. With the recent launch of our new A Better Way with FOA campaign, we are redefining how reverse mortgages are understood, moving the product from the margins into the mainstream as a flexible, forward-looking financial planning tool for homeowners 55 and up. Finance of America is setting the standard for how our industry communicates the role of reverse mortgages, and Kristen will speak more about the new campaign. We believe this strategic repositioning strengthens our brand and supports long-term growth. Finally, we continue to see the advantages of our product suite flexibility by offering a broader range of solutions and the ability to introduce new products to address emerging needs. We are able to better serve our customers. This approach allows our customers to access the most suitable products to support their individual needs and circumstances. With that, I'll turn it over to Kristen. Thanks, Graham, and good afternoon, everyone. The first quarter marked a pivotal moment in actualizing our operational and brand strategy. As part of our commitment to elevating customer engagement, we recently launched our new messaging campaign, A Better Way with FOA. This campaign marks a shift away from traditional celebrity endorsements towards storytelling that reflects real-life goals and aspirations of today's homeowners. Our goal was to create ads that highlight relatable use cases that dismantle stereotypes and show reverse mortgages as a smart tool for responsible financial planning, whether it's funding a renovation, covering unexpected expenses, or simply enabling peace of mind. We're embedding this message across every customer and marketing touchpoint, and we expect the full transition will be complete by the end of June. To give you a closer look at the campaign in action, we posted a few examples of our creative materials on our Investor Relations website. We believe this new platform will enable us to attract and convert a new, broader audience, one that is experienced and comfortable with leveraging home equity to responsibly achieve their financial goals and that has a higher intent to transact. A modest 5% improvement in our lead-to-opportunity metric would support the growth in retail production that we've modeled for the year, with additional upside as we continue to focus on optimizing the customer journey. While the campaign has only been in market at a small scale for less than one month, we're already seeing this play out in our early direct mail results, which have shown a 16% improvement in our upper funnel inquiry-to-lead conversion. As we gain insights into the new types of customers engaging with our brand, we will utilize this data to inform our growth strategy and drive product innovation. Given the various economic uncertainties impacting our customers, including stock market volatility, risk of recession, and further inflation, we're confident that our current solutions can assist many Americans in achieving the stability they seek. Furthermore, we're well-positioned to introduce new solutions to address additional needs. In addition to launching the new brand platform, we've continued to focus on the fundamentals across the business and have seen notable improvements across key operational metrics in Q1. Quarter- over- quarter, we doubled the percentage of retail loans funded within the first 30 days from submission. We increased the initial 30-day sales conversion rates by 40%, and we reduced our cost per opportunity by 12% over the same period. Our continued focus on operational excellence is strengthening the business and laying the groundwork for future growth investments. Before I hand it over to Matt, I'd like to congratulate John Scarpati on his recent promotion to Chief Production Officer of our operating subsidiary, Finance of America Reverse. John has been the head of our industry-leading wholesale division for over a decade. In this new role, John will oversee our sales and production strategy, heading both the wholesale and retail channels. We believe this leadership will be key to helping us unlock the massive growth potential we know is available within our category. With momentum on the brand and operations front, I'll turn it over to Matt to discuss our financial performance. Matt. Thank you, Kristen, and good afternoon, everyone. The first quarter of 2025 was strong across several key metrics. We delivered $561 million in funded volume, up 5% from the fourth quarter of 2024 and 32% from the first quarter of 2024. As Graham mentioned, this was the fourth consecutive quarter of volume growth for the company. We also saw a meaningful improvement in our GAAP results. For the first quarter, the company recorded GAAP net income of $80 million, or $3.17 per basic share, compared to a GAAP net loss of $16 million, or $0.58 per basic share in the first quarter of 2024. These results were aided by positive fair value adjustments during the quarter. While spreads widened slightly, overall valuations remained positive, given declining base rates and stable home price appreciation assumptions. Adjusted net income for the first quarter came in at $13 million, or $0.52 per share. This result was in line with our stated expectations, performing similar to the third quarter of 2024. Compared to the first quarter of 2024, when we reported an adjusted net loss of $7 million, the company saw a $20 million improvement year-over-year. This turnaround reflects three key elements of strong operational performance: higher volumes, a fully integrated business, and disciplined expense management. Quarter-over-quarter, adjusted net income improved by $8 million, increasing from $5 million in the fourth quarter of 2024. This performance reflects our ability to grow volume efficiently while maintaining margin discipline, even in a dynamic rate environment. Adjusted EBITDA totaled $29 million. This represents an $11 million improvement from the $18 million in the fourth quarter of 2024 and a $29 million increase from break-even in the first quarter of 2024. Building on that, product-level margins improved quarter-over-quarter, as expected. However, total Retirement Solutions' revenue margin was flat sequentially, driven by a shift in channel mix. Our wholesale channel exceeded volume expectations, helping us beat our overall guidance. However, since wholesale carries lower margins, channel mix offset the product-level improvement, and our overall revenue margin was flat. Turning to our cost structure, we saw further improvements both sequentially and year-over-year as a result of our disciplined approach to vendor spend. Compared to the first quarter of 2024, general and administrative expenses declined by $4.3 million, representing a 25% year-over-year reduction. A key contributor to this was a 35% decrease in communication and data processing expenses, which reflects our ongoing efforts to right-size our vendor relationships and optimize our technology infrastructure. These savings highlight the efficiency gains we continue to unlock through proactive cost management. Speaking of efficiency across the platform, operational productivity continues to trend favorably. We originated higher volumes with a more streamlined team, leading to an increase in loans per employee of 33% across our origination platform compared to the first quarter of 2024. We expect to continue to see this trend upward due to the scalability of our model and the benefit of our ongoing digital transformation. Our liquidity remains adequate, and we remain healthy, maintaining healthy financing capacity to support our continued growth projections. We are reaffirming our full-year guidance for both volume and earnings: $2.4 billion-$2.7 billion in origination volume and $2.60-$3 in adjusted EPS. In addition, for the second quarter, we expect to see funded volume in the range of $575 million-$600 million. With that, let me hand it back to Graham for closing remarks. Thank you, Matt. We are happy with our progress in Q1 and confident in our ability to continue to execute going forward. Our message is resonating, our platform is delivering, and our strategy is taking hold. Older homeowners are increasingly aware of the value sitting around them for home equity. When investment portfolios are under pressure, the relative stability of housing creates a compelling case for tapping into home equity. As the largest originator of reverse mortgages in the country, we believe we are well-positioned to meet the moment. There is a better way with FOA. With that, we'll open the call for questions. Thank you. We will now begin the question- and- answer session. If you have dialed in and would like to ask a question, please press star one on your telephone keypad to raise your hand and join the queue. If you would like to withdraw your question, simply press star one again. If you are called upon to ask your question and are listening via loudspeaker on your device, please pick up your handset and ensure that your phone is not unmuted when asking your question. Your first question comes from the line of Doug Harter with UBS. Please go ahead. Thanks. This is actually Will Nasta on for Doug today. I know you gave guidance for 2Q volumes, but I was just hoping you could talk for a minute about how the rate volatility, particularly in April, impacted volumes and kind of what you've been seeing in the market so far this quarter? You know, I'll take the second part of that question. April was actually our best submission and funded volume month in the last two years, so very strong volume in April. I don't know, Matt, if you want to take the rate environment and volatility, but. I mean, I think certainly rates continue to bounce around a little bit. We are kind of taking it day by day, but we have not seen any significant movement yet, either way, in terms of the rate impacting our volume at this point. Okay. All right. That makes sense. Thanks. And then just one more. Could you just talk about what your outlook for expenses are? Obviously, they've come down a decent amount over the last year plus. Just curious how you're thinking about your expense base going forward? I'll kind of reiterate what we said in prior quarters, that our fixed cost base is relatively fixed, right? As production increases, we expect there'll be some variable expenses increase along with that, but the fixed base is relatively fixed. That said, on the fixed side, we continue to see we were a much bigger business a couple of years ago. We continue to see opportunities, what we call sharpen the pencil, as contracts renew and we can renew for a lower fee count, lower number of licenses. We see some downward pressure on some of those expenses. Relatively speaking, our fixed corporate infrastructure is going to be fixed and we'll only have variable expenses on increased production. We do feel like our platform can handle significantly more production without putting a lot of pressure on that fixed cost base. Got it. Okay. Thank you. That concludes our question- and- answer session. I will now turn the conference back over to Graham Fleming for closing remarks. Please go ahead. Thank you, everybody. I want to thank everybody for joining our Q1 call, and we look forward to updating you on our progress in Q2 in August. Thank you very much, everybody. Ladies and gentlemen, that concludes today's call. Thank you all for joining. You may now disconnect.
