As previously announced, on February 12, 2018, WMIH Corp. (WMIH), Nationstar Mortgage Holdings Inc., a Delaware corporation
(Nationstar), and Wand Merger Corporation, a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of WMIH (Merger Sub), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the Merger Agreement). On July 31, 2018 the
Merger was consummated and Merger Sub merged with and into Nationstar (the Merger), with Nationstar continuing as the surviving corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of WMIH.
WMIH is filing the information under this Item 8.01 solely to file the required historical interim financial statements of Nationstar and
the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements, which give pro forma effect to the Merger described above.
This
Item 8.01 includes:
|
|
|
Historical financial statements of Nationstar in accordance with Rule 3-05 of Regulation S-X, which are filed as
Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
|
|
|
|
Unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information about the financial condition and results of
operations, including per share data, after giving effect to the Merger and related financing transaction, in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X which is filed as Exhibit 99.2 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.
|
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information assumes that the Merger is accounted for under the
acquisition method of accounting, and that the assets and liabilities of Nationstar will be recorded by WMIH at their respective estimated fair values as of July 31, 2018, the date the merger was completed. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined
balance sheet gives effect to the transactions as if the transactions had occurred on June 30, 2018. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2018 give effect to the transactions as if the
transactions had become effective on January 1, 2017.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information is presented
for illustrative purposes only and does not indicate the financial results of the combined company had the companies actually been combined at the beginning of the period presented, nor the impact of possible business model changes. The unaudited
pro forma condensed combined financial information also does not consider any potential effects of changes in market conditions on revenues, expense efficiencies, asset dispositions, and share repurchases, among other factors, and is based on
certain assumptions.

In addition to factors previously
disclosed in WMIHs and Nationstars reports filed with the SEC and those identified elsewhere in this communication, the following factors, among others, could cause actual results to differ materially from forward-looking statements or
historical performance: ability to meet the closing conditions to the merger, including approval by shareholders of WMIH and Nationstar on the expected terms and schedule and the risk that regulatory approvals required for the merger are not
obtained or are obtained subject to conditions that are not anticipated; delay in closing the merger; failure to realize the benefits expected from the proposed transaction; the effects of pending and future legislation; risks associated with
investing in mortgage loans and mortgage servicing rights and changes in interest rates; risks related to disruption of management time from ongoing business operations due to the proposed transaction; business disruption following the transaction;
macroeconomic factors beyond WMIHs or Nationstars control; risks related to WMIHs or Nationstars indebtedness and other consequences associated with mergers, acquisitions and divestitures and legislative and regulatory
actions and reforms.
