—Safe Harbor Provisions
All statements in this report that address events, developments or results that we expect or anticipate may occur in the future are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act, Section 21E of the Exchange Act and the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. In most cases, forward-looking statements may be identified by words such as “anticipate,” “may,” “will,” “could,” “should,” “would,” “expect,” “intend,” “plan,” “goal,” “contemplate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “predict,” “project,” “potential,” “continue,” “seek,” “strategy,” “future,” “likely” or the negative or other variations on these words and other similar expressions. These statements, which may include, without limitation, projections regarding our future performance and financial condition, are made on the basis of management’s current views and assumptions with respect to future events, including management’s current views regarding the likely impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. These statements speak only as of the date they were made, and we undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. We operate in a changing environment where new risks emerge from time to time and it is not possible for us to predict all risks that may affect us, particularly those associated with the COVID-19 pandemic, which has had wide-ranging and continually evolving effects. The forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance, and the forward-looking statements, as well as our prospects as a whole, are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those set forth in the forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include, without limitation:
■the COVID-19 pandemic, which has caused significant economic disruption, high unemployment, periods of volatility and disruption in financial markets, and required adjustments in the housing finance system and real estate markets. The COVID-19 pandemic has adversely impacted our businesses, and we expect that the COVID-19 pandemic could further impact our business and subject us to certain risks, including those discussed in “Item 1A. Risk Factors—The COVID-19 pandemic has adversely impacted us, and its ultimate impact on our business and financial results will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including the scope, severity and duration of the pandemic and actions taken by governmental authorities in response to the pandemic” and the other risk factors in our 2020 Form 10-K;
■changes in economic and political conditions that impact the size of the insurable market, the credit performance of our insured portfolio, and our business prospects;
■changes in the way customers, investors, ratings agencies, regulators or legislators perceive our performance, financial strength and future prospects;
■Radian Guaranty’s ability to remain eligible under the PMIERs and other applicable requirements imposed by the FHFA and by the GSEs to insure loans purchased by the GSEs;
■our ability to maintain an adequate level of capital in our insurance subsidiaries to satisfy existing and future regulatory requirements, including the PMIERs and any changes thereto, such as the application of the COVID-19 Amendment, and potential changes to the Model Act currently under consideration;
■changes in the charters or business practices of, or rules or regulations imposed by or applicable to, the GSEs, which may include changes in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, changes in the requirements for Radian Guaranty to remain an approved insurer to the GSEs, changes in the GSEs’ interpretation and application of the PMIERs, or changes impacting loans purchased by the GSEs;
■the effects of the Enterprise Regulatory Capital Framework which was finalized by the FHFA in December 2020 and which, among other things, increases the capital requirements for the GSEs and reduces the credit they receive for risk transfer, which could impact their operations and pricing as well as the size of the insurable mortgage insurance market, and which may form the basis for future versions of the PMIERs;
■changes in the current housing finance system in the United States, including the roles of the FHA, the GSEs and private mortgage insurers in this system;
■our ability to successfully execute and implement our capital plans, including our risk distribution strategy through the capital markets and reinsurance markets, and to maintain sufficient holding company liquidity to meet our liquidity needs;
■our ability to successfully execute and implement our business plans and strategies, including plans and strategies that require GSE and/or regulatory approvals and licenses or are subject to complex compliance requirements that we may be unable to satisfy, or that may expose us to new risks including those that could impact our capital and liquidity positions;
■uncertainty from the upcoming discontinuance of LIBOR and transition to one or more alternative benchmarks that could cause interest rate volatility and, among other things, impact our investment portfolio, cost of debt and cost of reinsurance through mortgage insurance-linked notes transactions;
■any disruption in the servicing of mortgages covered by our insurance policies, as well as poor servicer performance, which could be impacted by the burdens placed on many servicers due to the COVID-19 pandemic;
■a decrease in the Persistency Rates of our mortgage insurance on Monthly Premium Policies;

■competition in the private mortgage insurance industry generally, and more specifically: price competition in our mortgage insurance business, including as a result of the increased use of loan-level pricing delivery methodologies that are less transparent than historical pricing practices; and competition from the FHA and the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs as well as from other forms of credit enhancement, such as GSE-sponsored alternatives to traditional mortgage insurance;
■the effect of the Dodd-Frank Act on the financial services industry in general, and on our businesses in particular;
■legislative and regulatory activity (or inactivity), including the adoption of (or failure to adopt) new laws and regulations, or changes in existing laws and regulations, or the way they are interpreted or applied, including potential changes in tax law under the Biden Administration;
■legal and regulatory claims, assertions, actions, reviews, audits, inquiries and investigations that could result in adverse judgments, settlements, fines, injunctions, restitutions or other relief that could require significant expenditures, new or increased reserves or have other effects on our business;
■the amount and timing of potential payments or adjustments associated with federal or other tax examinations;
■the possibility that we may fail to estimate accurately, especially in the event of an extended economic downturn or a period of extreme market volatility and economic uncertainty, the likelihood, magnitude and timing of losses in establishing loss reserves for our mortgage insurance business or to accurately calculate and/or project our Available Assets and Minimum Required Assets under the PMIERs, which will be impacted by, among other things, the size and mix of our IIF, the level of defaults in our portfolio, the reported status of defaults in our portfolio, including whether they are subject to forbearance, a repayment plan or a loan modification trial period granted in response to a financial hardship related to COVID-19, the level of cash flow generated by our insurance operations and our risk distribution strategies;
■volatility in our financial results caused by changes in the fair value of our assets and liabilities, including with respect to our use of derivatives and within our investment portfolio;
■changes in GAAP or SAP rules and guidance, or their interpretation;
■our ability and related costs to develop, launch and implement new and innovative technologies and digital products and services, and whether we will have broad customer acceptance of these products and services;
■effectiveness and security of our information technology systems and digital products and services, including the risk that these systems, products or services fail to operate as expected or planned or expose us to cybersecurity or third party risks, including due to computer viruses, unauthorized access, cyber-attack, natural disasters or other similar events;
■our ability to attract and retain key employees; and
■legal and other limitations on amounts we may receive from our subsidiaries, including dividends or ordinary course distributions under our internal tax- and expense-sharing arrangements.

Risk Factors” in our 2020 Form 10-K, and to subsequent reports and registration statements filed from time to time with the SEC. We caution you not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which are current only as of the date on which we issued this report. We do not intend to, and we disclaim any duty or obligation to, update or revise any forward-looking statements to reflect new information or future events or for any other reason.

1. Description of Business
We are a diversified mortgage and real estate business, providing both credit-related mortgage insurance coverage and a broad array of other mortgage, risk, title, valuation, asset management, SaaS and other real estate services. We have two reportable business segments—Mortgage and homegenius. Our homegenius segment was previously named “Real Estate” and during the second quarter of 2021 we renamed it “homegenius” to align with updates to our branding strategy for the segment’s products and services.
Mortgage
Our Mortgage segment provides credit-related insurance coverage, principally through private mortgage insurance on residential first-lien mortgage loans, as well as other credit risk management, contract underwriting and fulfillment solutions, to mortgage lending institutions and mortgage credit investors. We provide our mortgage insurance products and services mainly through our wholly-owned subsidiary, Radian Guaranty. Private mortgage insurance plays an important role in the U.S. housing finance system because it promotes affordable home ownership and helps protect mortgage lenders and investors, as well as other beneficiaries, by mitigating default-related losses on residential mortgage loans. Generally, these loans are made to homebuyers who make down payments of less than 20% of the purchase price for their home or, in the case of refinancings, have less than 20% equity in their home. Private mortgage insurance also facilitates the sale of these low down payment loans in the secondary mortgage market, most of which are currently sold to the GSEs. Our total direct primary mortgage IIF and RIF were $237.3 billion and $58.0 billion, respectively, as of June 30, 2021, compared to $246.1 billion and $60.7 billion, respectively, as of December 31, 2020. In addition to providing private mortgage insurance, we participate in credit risk transfer programs developed by the GSEs as part of their initiative to distribute mortgage credit risk and increase the role of private capital in the mortgage market. Our additional RIF under credit risk transfer transactions, resulting from our participation in these programs with the GSEs, totaled $434.7 million as of June 30, 2021 compared to $392.0 million as of December 31, 2020.
The GSEs and state insurance regulators impose various capital and financial requirements on our mortgage insurance subsidiaries. These include Risk-to-capital, other risk-based capital measures and surplus requirements, as well as the PMIERs financial requirements. Failure to comply with these capital and financial requirements may limit the amount of insurance that our mortgage insurance subsidiaries write or may prohibit them from writing insurance altogether. The GSEs and state insurance regulators possess significant discretion with respect to our mortgage insurance subsidiaries and all aspects of their business. See Note 16 for additional information on PMIERs and other regulatory information, and “—Recent Developments” below for a discussion of the elevated risks posed by the COVID-19 pandemic, which has led to an increase in mortgage defaults in our insured portfolio and a resulting increase in our Minimum Required Assets.
homegenius
Our homegenius segment is primarily a fee-for-service business that offers a broad array of products and services to market participants across the real estate value chain. Our homegenius products and services include title, valuation, asset management, SaaS and other real estate services offered primarily to mortgage lenders, mortgage and real estate investors, GSEs, real estate brokers and agents. These products and services help lenders, investors, consumers and real estate agents evaluate, manage, monitor, acquire and sell properties. These products and services include SaaS solutions and platforms, as well as managed services, such as real estate owned asset management, single family rental services and real estate valuation services. In addition, we provide title insurance and non-insurance title, closing and settlement services to mortgage lenders, GSEs and mortgage investors, as well as directly to consumers for residential mortgage loans.
See Note 4 for additional information about our reportable segments and All Other business activities.
Recent Developments
As a seller of mortgage credit protection, our results are subject to macroeconomic conditions and specific events that impact the housing finance and real estate markets, including events that impact mortgage originations and the credit performance of our RIF. Many of these conditions are beyond our control, including housing prices, unemployment, interest rate changes, the availability of credit and other factors that may be derived from national and regional economic conditions. In general, a deterioration in economic conditions increases the likelihood that borrowers will be unable to satisfy their mortgage obligations. A deteriorating economy can adversely affect housing values, which in turn can influence the willingness of borrowers to continue to make mortgage payments regardless of whether they have the financial resources to do so. Mortgage defaults can also occur due to a variety of specific events affecting borrowers, including death or illness, divorce or other family problems, unemployment, or other events. In addition, factors impacting regional economic conditions, acts of terrorism, war or other severe conflicts, event-specific economic depressions or other catastrophic events such as natural disasters and pandemics could result in increased defaults due to the impact of such events on the ability of borrowers to satisfy their mortgage obligations and on the value of affected homes.

The unprecedented and continually evolving social and economic impacts associated with the COVID-19 pandemic on the U.S. and global economies generally, and in particular on the U.S. housing, real estate and housing finance markets, had a negative effect on our business and our financial results for the second quarter of 2020, and since then to a lesser extent. Specifically, and primarily as a result of an increase in the number of new defaults since the start of the pandemic, our financial results have included: (i) an increase in provision for losses and (ii) an increase in our Minimum Required Assets under the PMIERs. While the number of new defaults increased significantly during the second quarter of 2020, they have subsequently trended down. See Note 11 for additional information on our reserve for losses.
We expect that certain future developments, such as anticipated increases in our claims paid once current foreclosure moratoriums are lifted, will have an adverse impact on aspects of our business in future periods. The long-term impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our businesses will depend on, among other things: the extent and duration of the pandemic, the severity of illness and number of people infected with the virus and the acceptance and long-term effectiveness of anti-viral treatments and vaccines, especially as new strains of COVID-19 have emerged; the wider economic effects of the pandemic and the scope and duration of governmental and other third-party measures restricting day-to-day life and business operations; the impact of economic stimulus efforts to support the economy through the pandemic; and governmental and GSE programs implemented to assist borrowers experiencing a COVID-19-related hardship, including forbearance programs and suspensions of foreclosures and evictions. Although we are uncertain of the potential magnitude or duration of the business and economic impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, these and other factors, including those discussed in our 2020 Form 10-K, could continue to have a material negative effect on the Company’s business, liquidity, results of operations and financial condition.
2. Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
Our condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP and include the accounts of Radian Group Inc. and its subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions, and intercompany profits and losses, have been eliminated. We have condensed or omitted certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP pursuant to the instructions set forth in Article 10 of Regulation S-X of the SEC.
We refer to Radian Group Inc. together with its consolidated subsidiaries as “Radian,” the “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our,” unless the context requires otherwise. We generally refer to Radian Group Inc. alone, without its consolidated subsidiaries, as “Radian Group.” Unless otherwise defined in this report, certain terms and acronyms used throughout this report are defined in the Glossary of Abbreviations and Acronyms included as part of this report.
The financial information presented for interim periods is unaudited; however, such information reflects all adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for the fair statement of the financial position, results of operations, comprehensive income (loss) and cash flows for the interim periods presented. Such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. The year-end condensed balance sheet data was derived from our audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP.
To fully understand the basis of presentation, these interim financial statements and related notes contained herein should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto included in our 2020 Form 10-K. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full year or for any other period. See Note 1 for discussion of the elevated risks to our future business, liquidity, results of operations and financial condition due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to current period presentation, including: (i) certain balance sheet line items now reported in other assets and (ii) certain segment reporting balances due to changes in the composition of our segments during 2020.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of our contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. While the amounts included in our condensed consolidated financial statements include our best estimates and assumptions, actual results may vary materially.
Other Significant Accounting Policies
See Note 2 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2020 Form 10-K for information regarding other significant accounting policies. There have been no significant changes in our significant accounting policies from those
16

Table of Contents Glossary | Radian Group Inc. Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

discussed in our 2020 Form 10-K, other than described below in “—Recent Accounting Pronouncements—Accounting Standards Adopted During 2021.”
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Accounting Standards Adopted During 2021
In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes—Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. This update simplifies the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles of ASC Topic 740 in GAAP and clarifies certain aspects to promote consistency among reporting entities. We adopted this update effective January 1, 2021. The adoption of this update did not have an impact on our financial statements and disclosures.
In October 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-08, Codification Improvements to Subtopic 310-20, Receivables—Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs. This update clarifies that, for each reporting period, to the extent the amortized cost basis of an individual callable debt security exceeds the amount repayable by the issuer at the next call date, the excess (i.e., the premium) should be amortized to the next call date. We adopted ASU 2020-08 on January 1, 2021 on a prospective basis. The adoption of this update did not have a material impact on our financial statements and disclosures.
Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-12, Financial Services—Insurance. The new standard: (i) requires that assumptions used to measure the liability for future policy benefits be reviewed at least annually; (ii) defines and simplifies the measurement of market risk benefits; (iii) simplifies the amortization of deferred acquisition costs; and (iv) enhances the required disclosures about long-duration contracts. This update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact on our financial statements and future disclosures as a result of this update.
In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform—Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Reform on Financial Reporting. This update provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by reference rate reform. The amendments in this update are optional and may be elected from the date of issuance through December 31, 2022, as reference rate reform activities occur. We are currently evaluating the impact of the guidance and our options related to the practical expedients.

3. Net Income (Loss) Per Share
Basic net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding, while diluted net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders by the sum of the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding and the weighted-average number of dilutive potential common shares. Dilutive potential common shares relate to our share-based compensation arrangements.
The calculation of basic and diluted net income (loss) per share is as follows.

Net income (loss) per share
|  | Three Months Ended June 30, |  | Six Months Ended June 30,
(In thousands, except per-share amounts) |  | 2021 |  | 2020 |  | 2021 |  | 2020
Net income (loss)—basic and diluted |  | $ | 155,206 |  |  | $ | (29,951) |  |  | $ | 280,814 |  |  | $ | 110,510 |
Average common shares outstanding—basic |  | 193,436 |  |  | 193,299 |  |  | 193,692 |  |  | 197,545 |
Dilutive effect of share-based compensation arrangements (1) |  | 1,202 |  |  | — |  |  | 1,294 |  |  | 1,201 |
Adjusted average common shares outstanding—diluted |  | 194,638 |  |  | 193,299 |  |  | 194,986 |  |  | 198,746 |
Net income (loss) per share: |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Basic |  | $ | 0.80 |  |  | $ | (0.15) |  |  | $ | 1.45 |  |  | $ | 0.56 |
Diluted |  | $ | 0.80 |  |  | $ | (0.15) |  |  | $ | 1.44 |  |  | $ | 0.56 |

(1)There were no dilutive shares for the three months ended June 30, 2020, as a result of our net loss for the period. The following number of shares of our common stock equivalents issued under our share-based compensation arrangements are not included in the calculation of diluted net income (loss) per share because they are anti-dilutive.

|  | Three Months Ended June 30, |  | Six Months Ended June 30,
(In thousands) |  | 2021 |  | 2020 |  | 2021 |  | 2020
Shares of common stock equivalents |  | — |  |  | 2,295 |  |  | — |  |  | 1,213 |

4. Segment Reporting
We have two strategic business units that we manage separately—Mortgage and homegenius. Our Mortgage segment derives its revenue from mortgage insurance and other mortgage and risk services, including contract underwriting and fulfillment solutions provided to mortgage lending institutions and mortgage credit investors. Our homegenius segment offers a broad array of title, valuation, asset management, SaaS and other real estate services to mortgage lenders, mortgage and real estate investors, GSEs, real estate brokers and agents. In addition, we report as All Other activities that include: (i) income (losses) from assets held by our holding company; (ii) related general corporate operating expenses not attributable or allocated to our reportable segments; (iii) for all periods through its sale in January 2020, income and expenses related to Clayton; (iv) for all periods presented, the income and expenses related to our traditional appraisal services, which we wound down beginning in the fourth quarter of 2020; and (v) certain other immaterial revenue and expense items.
As described in Note 4 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2020 Form 10-K, we implemented several changes to our segment reporting in 2020, including related to the wind down of our traditional appraisal business announced in the fourth quarter of 2020. All changes to the composition of our segment reporting have been reflected in our segment operating results for all periods presented.
During the second quarter of 2021, our Real Estate segment was renamed “homegenius” to align with updates to our branding strategy for the segment’s products and services. The homegenius segment name change had no impact on the composition of our segments or on our previously reported historical financial position, results of operations, cash flow or segment level results.
We allocate corporate operating expenses to both reportable segments based on each segment’s forecasted annual percentage of total revenue, which approximates the estimated percentage of management time spent on each segment. In addition, we allocate all corporate interest expense to our Mortgage segment, due to the capital-intensive nature of our mortgage insurance business.
18

Table of Contents Glossary | Radian Group Inc. Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

With the exception of goodwill and other acquired intangible assets that relate to our homegenius segment, which are reviewed as part of our annual goodwill impairment assessment, we do not manage assets by segment.
See Note 1 for additional details about our Mortgage and homegenius businesses.
Adjusted Pretax Operating Income (Loss)
Our senior management, including our Chief Executive Officer (Radian’s chief operating decision maker), uses adjusted pretax operating income (loss) as our primary measure to evaluate the fundamental financial performance of each of Radian’s business segments and to allocate resources to the segments. Adjusted pretax operating income (loss) is defined as pretax income (loss) excluding the effects of: (i) net gains (losses) on investments and other financial instruments; (ii) loss on extinguishment of debt; (iii) amortization and impairment of goodwill and other acquired intangible assets; and (iv) impairment of other long-lived assets and other non-operating items, such as impairment of internal-use software, gains (losses) from the sale of lines of business and acquisition-related income and expenses. See Note 4 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2020 Form 10-K for detailed information regarding items excluded from adjusted pretax operating income (loss), including the reasons for their treatment.
Although adjusted pretax operating income (loss) excludes certain items that have occurred in the past and are expected to occur in the future, the excluded items represent those that are: (i) not viewed as part of the operating performance of our primary activities or (ii) not expected to result in an economic impact equal to the amount reflected in pretax income (loss).
The reconciliation of adjusted pretax operating income (loss) for our reportable segments to consolidated pretax income (loss) is as follows.

Securities Lending Agreements
We participate in a securities lending program whereby we loan certain securities in our investment portfolio to third-party borrowers for short periods of time. Although we report such securities at fair value within other assets in our condensed consolidated balance sheets, rather than within investments, the detailed information we provide in this Note 6 includes these securities. See Note 5 for additional detail on the loaned securities, and see Note 6 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2020 Form 10-K for additional information about our accounting policies with respect to our securities lending agreements and the collateral requirements thereunder.

All of our securities lending agreements are classified as overnight and revolving. Securities collateral on deposit with us from third-party borrowers totaling $102.0 million and $43.3 million as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, may not be transferred or re-pledged unless the third-party borrower is in default, and is therefore not reflected in our condensed consolidated financial statements.

8. Reinsurance
In our mortgage insurance and title insurance businesses, we use reinsurance as part of our risk distribution strategy, including to manage our capital position and risk profile. The reinsurance arrangements for our mortgage insurance business include p remiums ceded under the QSR Program, the Single Premium QSR Program and the Excess-of-Loss Program. The amount of credit that we receive under the PMIERs financial requirements for our third-party reinsurance transactions is subject to ongoing review and approval by the GSEs.
The effect of all of our reinsurance programs on our net income (loss) is as follows.

(3)Deferred ceding commissions of $43.6 million and $52.5 million are included in other liabilities on our condensed consolidated balance sheets at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.
Single Premium QSR Program
Radian Guaranty entered into each of the 2016 Single Premium QSR Agreement, 2018 Single Premium QSR Agreement and 2020 Single Premium QSR Agreement with panels of third-party reinsurers to cede a contractual quota share percent of our Single Premium NIW as of the effective date of each agreement (as set forth in the table below), subject to certain conditions. Radian Guaranty receives a ceding commission for ceded premiums written pursuant to these transactions. Radian Guaranty also receives a profit commission annually, provided that the loss ratio on the loans covered under the agreement generally remains below the applicable prescribed thresholds. Losses on the ceded risk up to this level reduce Radian Guaranty’s profit commission on a dollar-for-dollar basis.
Each of the agreements is subject to a scheduled termination date as set forth in the table below; however, Radian Guaranty has the option, based on certain conditions and subject to a termination fee, to terminate any of the agreements at the end of any calendar quarter on or after the applicable optional termination date. If Radian Guaranty exercises this option in the future, it would result in Radian Guaranty reassuming the related RIF in exchange for a net payment to the reinsurer calculated in accordance with the terms of the applicable agreement. Radian Guaranty also may terminate any of the agreements prior to the applicable scheduled termination date under certain circumstances, including if one or both of the GSEs no longer grant full PMIERs capital relief for the reinsurance.
The 2020 Single Premium QSR Agreement is the only QSR agreement under which Radian Guaranty is currently ceding NIW. Under the 2020 Single Premium QSR Agreement, NIW for Single Premium Policies issued between January 1, 2020 and December 31, 2021 is being ceded, subject to certain conditions and a limitation on ceded premiums written of $250 million. The parties may mutually agree to increase the amount of ceded risk above this level.

(1)Effective December 31, 2017, we amended the 2016 Single Premium QSR Agreement to increase the amount of ceded risk on performing loans under the agreement from 35% to 65% for the 2015 through 2017 vintages. Loans included in the 2012 through 2014 vintages, and any other loans subject to the agreement that were delinquent at the time of the amendment, were unaffected by the change and therefore the amount of ceded risk for those loans continues to range from 20% to 35%.
Excess-of-Loss Program
As of June 30, 2021, Radian Guaranty had entered into five fully collateralized reinsurance arrangements with the Eagle Re Issuers. For the respective coverage periods, Radian Guaranty retains the first-loss layer of aggregate losses, as well as any losses in excess of the outstanding reinsurance coverage amounts. The Eagle Re Issuers provide second layer coverage up to the outstanding coverage amounts. For each of these five reinsurance arrangements, the Eagle Re Issuers financed their coverage by issuing mortgage insurance-linked notes to eligible capital markets investors in unregistered private offerings. The aggregate excess-of-loss reinsurance coverage for these arrangements decreases over a 10-year period as the principal balances of the underlying covered mortgages decrease and as any claims are paid by the applicable Eagle Re Issuer or the mortgage insurance is canceled. Radian Guaranty has rights to terminate the reinsurance agreements upon the occurrence of certain events.
Under each of the reinsurance agreements, the outstanding reinsurance coverage amount will begin amortizing after an initial period in which a target level of credit enhancement is obtained and will stop amortizing if certain thresholds, or triggers, are reached, including a delinquency trigger event based on an elevated level of delinquencies as defined in the related insurance-linked notes transaction agreements. With the exception of insurance-linked notes issued by Eagle Re 2020-2 Ltd and Eagle Re 2021-1 Ltd., the insurance-linked notes issued by the Eagle Re Issuers in connection with our Excess-of-Loss Program are currently subject to a delinquency trigger event, which was first reported to the insurance-linked note investors on June 25, 2020. For the insurance-linked notes that are subject to a delinquency trigger event, both the amortization of the outstanding reinsurance coverage amount pursuant to our reinsurance arrangements with the Eagle Re Issuers and the amortization of the principal amount of the related insurance-linked notes issued by the Eagle Re Issuers have been suspended and will continue to be suspended during the pendency of the trigger event.

(1)Radian Group purchased $45.4 million original principal amount of these mortgage insurance-linked notes, which are included in fixed-maturities available for sale on our condensed consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 2021. See Notes 5 and 6 for additional information.
(2)Excludes a separate excess-of-loss reinsurance agreement entered into by Radian Guaranty with both initial and remaining coverage of $21.4 million.
The Eagle Re Issuers are not subsidiaries or affiliates of Radian Guaranty. Based on the accounting guidance that addresses VIEs, we have not consolidated any of the assets and liabilities of the Eagle Re Issuers in our financial statements, because Radian does not have: (i) the power to direct the activities that most significantly affect the Eagle Re Issuers’ economic performances or (ii) the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from the Eagle Re Issuers that potentially could be significant to the Eagle Re Issuers. See Note 2 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2020 Form 10-K for more information on our accounting treatment of VIEs.
The reinsurance premium due to the Eagle Re Issuers is calculated by multiplying the outstanding reinsurance coverage amount at the beginning of a period by a coupon rate, which is the sum of one-month LIBOR (or an acceptable alternative to LIBOR) or SOFR, as applicable, plus a contractual risk margin, and then subtracting actual investment income collected on the assets in the reinsurance trust during the preceding month. As a result, the premiums we pay will vary based on: (i) the spread between LIBOR (or an acceptable alternative to LIBOR) or SOFR, as provided in each applicable reinsurance agreement, and the rates on the investments held by the reinsurance trust and (ii) the outstanding amount of reinsurance coverage. As the reinsurance premium will vary based on changes in these rates, we concluded that the reinsurance agreements contain embedded derivatives, which we have accounted for separately as freestanding derivatives and recorded in other assets or other liabilities on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. Changes in the fair value of these embedded derivatives are recorded in net gains (losses) on investments and other financial instruments in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. See Note 5 herein and Note 5 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2020 Form 10-K for more information on our fair value measurements of financial instruments, including our embedded derivatives.
In the event an Eagle Re Issuer is unable to meet its future obligations to us, if any, our insurance subsidiaries would be liable to make claims payments to our policyholders. In the event that all of the assets in the reinsurance trust (consisting of U.S. government money market funds, cash or U.S. Treasury securities) have become worthless and the Eagle Re Issuer is unable to make its payments to us, our maximum potential loss would be the amount of mortgage insurance claim payments for losses on the insured policies, net of the aggregate reinsurance payments already received, up to the full aggregate excess-of-loss reinsurance coverage amount. In the same scenario, the related embedded derivative would no longer have value.

Table of Contents Glossary | Radian Group Inc. Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

The Eagle Re Issuers represent our only VIEs as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. The following table presents the total assets and liabilities of the Eagle Re Issuers as of the dates indicated.

(1)Assets held by the Eagle Re Issuers are required to be invested in U.S. government money market funds, cash or U.S. Treasury securities. Liabilities of the Eagle Re Issuers consist of their mortgage insurance-linked notes, described above. Assets and liabilities are equal to each other for each of the Eagle Re Issuers.
Other Collateral
Although we use reinsurance as one of our risk management tools, reinsurance does not relieve us of our obligations to our policyholders. In the event the reinsurers are unable to meet their obligations to us, our insurance subsidiaries would be liable for any defaulted amounts. However, consistent with the PMIERs reinsurer counterparty collateral requirements, Radian Guaranty’s reinsurers have established trusts to help secure our potential cash r ecoveries. In addition to the total VIE assets of the Eagle Re Issuers discussed above, the amount held in reinsurance trusts was $197.8 million as of June 30, 2021, compared to $228.6 million as of December 31, 2020. In addition, for the Single Premium QSR Program, Radian Guaranty holds amounts related to ceded premiums written to collateralize the reinsurers’ obligations, which is reported in reinsurance funds withheld on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. Any loss recoveries and profit commissions paid to Radian Guaranty related to the Single Premium QSR Program are expected to be realized from this account.
See Note 8 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2020 Form 10-K for more information about our reinsurance transactions.

(2)We are the beneficiary of insurance policies on the lives of certain of our current and past officers and employees. The balances reported in other assets reflect the amounts that could be realized upon surrender of the insurance policies as of each respective date.
Right-of-Use Assets
We assess our various asset groups, which include right-of-use assets, for changes in grouping and for potential impairment when certain events occur or when there are changes in circumstances, including potential alternative uses. If circumstances require a change in asset groupings or a right-of-use asset to be tested for possible impairment, and the carrying value of the right-of-use asset is not recoverable on an undiscounted cash flow basis, an impairment is recognized to the extent that the carrying value exceeds its fair value.

Table of Contents Glossary | Radian Group Inc. Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

During the second quarter of 2021, in response to the COVID-19 pandemic and Radian’s successful transition to a virtual work environment, we made the decision to exit, and to actively market for sublease, all office space in our current corporate headquarters. As part of this change, we also entered into a new lease with reduced square footage at another Philadelphia area location, which upon opening we intend to designate as our new corporate headquarters location. Accordingly, during the three months ended June 30, 2021, we recognized an impairment of $3.5 million related to our current corporate headquarter leases, reducing the carrying value of certain lease assets and the related property and equipment to its estimated fair value. The right-of-use asset fair value was estimated using an income approach based on forecasted future cash flows expected to be derived from the property based on current sublease market rent, which could differ from actual results and require us to revise our initial estimates. Following this impairment, which was recorded within other operating expenses in our condensed consolidated statement of operations, the aggregate carrying value of the right-of-use assets and leasehold improvements related to the two corporate headquarter leases that we plan to sublease was $28.4 million as of June 30, 2021.

As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, our current income tax liability was $18.1 million and $17.5 million, respectively, and is included as a component of other liabilities in our condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Certain entities within our consolidated group have generated deferred tax assets relating primarily to state and local NOL carryforwards, which, if unutilized, will expire during various future tax periods. We are required to establish a valuation allowance against our deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that all or some portion of our deferred tax assets will not be realized. At each balance sheet date, we assess our need for a valuation allowance and this assessment is based on all available evidence, both positive and negative. This requires management to exercise judgment and make assumptions regarding whether our deferred tax assets will be realized in future periods. We have determined that certain entities within Radian Group may continue to generate taxable losses on a separate company basis in the near term and may not be able to fully utilize certain of their state and local NOLs on their state and local tax returns. Therefore, with respect to deferred tax assets relating to these state and local NOLs and other state timing adjustments, we retained a valuation allowance of $80.7 million at June 30, 2021.
As a mortgage guaranty insurer, we are eligible for a tax deduction, subject to certain limitations, under Internal Revenue Code Section 832(e) for amounts required by state law or regulation to be set aside in statutory contingency reserves. The deduction is allowed only to the extent that, in conjunction with quarterly federal tax payment due dates, we purchase non-interest bearing U.S. Mortgage Guaranty Tax and Loss Bonds issued by the U.S. Department of the Treasury in an amount equal to the tax benefit derived from deducting any portion of our statutory contingency reserves. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, we held $275.6 million and $210.9 million of these bonds, respectively, which are included as prepaid federal income taxes within other assets in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. The corresponding deduction of our statutory contingency reserves resulted in the recognition of a net deferred tax liability. See Note 16 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2020 Form 10-K for additional information about our U.S. Mortgage Guaranty Tax and Loss Bonds.
For additional information on our income taxes, including our accounting policies, see Notes 2 and 10 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2020 Form 10-K.

Reserve Activity
Incurred Losses
Case reserves established for new default notices were the primary driver of our total incurred losses for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, and they were primarily impacted by the number of new primary default notices received in the period and our related gross Default to Claim Rate assumption applied to those new defaults.
For the six months ended June 30, 2021, we experienced a significant decrease in the number of new primary default notices, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2020, substantially all of which related to defaults subject to forbearance programs implemented in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Our gross Default to Claim Rate assumption applied to new defaults was 8.0% as of June 30, 2021. Our provision for losses during the first six months of 2021 was positively impacted by favorable reserve development on prior year defaults, primarily as a result of more favorable trends in Cures than originally estimated, resulting in a reduction from 8.5% to 8.0% in the Default to Claim Rate assumption for default notices reported

between April and December 2020. See Note 1 for additional information on the elevated risks and uncertainties resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic to our business.
Our gross Default to Claim Rate assumption applied to new defaults was 8.5% as of June 30, 2020. Our provision for losses during the first six months of 2020 was positively impacted by favorable reserve development on prior year defaults. This favorable development was primarily driven by a reduction in certain Default to Claim Rate assumptions for these prior year defaults based on observed trends, primarily due to higher Cures than previously estimated.
Claims Paid
Total claims paid decreased for the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the same period in 2020. Claims paid in 2021 include payments made to settle certain previously disclosed legal proceedings. See Note 13 for additional information about these legal proceedings. The decrease in claims paid is primarily attributable to COVID-19-related hardship forbearance plans and suspensions of foreclosure and evictions.

Total FHLB advances |  | $ | 153,983 |  |  | $ | 176,483 |

FHLB Advances
As of June 30, 2021, we had $154.0 million of fixed-rate advances outstanding with a weighted average interest rate of 1.03%. Interest on the FHLB advances is payable quarterly, or at maturity if the term of the advance is less than 90 days. Principal is due at maturity. For obligations with maturities greater than or equal to 90 days, we may prepay the debt at any time, subject to a prepayment fee calculation.
The principal balance of the FHLB advances are required to be collateralized by eligible assets with a market value that must be maintained generally within a minimum range of 103% to 111% of the amount borrowed, depending on the type of assets pledged. Our fixed-maturities available for sale and trading securities include securities totaling $175.5 million and $188.0 million at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, which serve as collateral for our FHLB advances to satisfy this requirement. See Note 12 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2020 Form 10-K for additional information about our FHLB advances.
Revolving Credit Facility
Radian Group has in place a $267.5 million unsecured revolving credit facility with a syndicate of bank lenders, which has a maturity date of January 18, 2022. At June 30, 2021, Radian Group was in compliance with all of the credit facility covenants, and there were no amounts outstanding. For more information regarding our revolving credit facility, including certain of its terms and covenants, see Note 12 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2020 Form 10-K.

13. Commitments and Contingencies
Legal Proceedings
We are routinely involved in a number of legal actions and proceedings, including litigation and other disputes arising in the ordinary course of our business. Legal and regulatory matters such as discussed below and in our 2020 Form 10-K could result in adverse judgments, settlements, fines, injunctions, restitutions or other relief that could require significant expenditures or have other effects on our business. Management believes, based on current knowledge and after consultation with counsel, that the outcome of any currently pending or threatened actions will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial condition. The outcome of litigation and other legal and regulatory matters and proceedings is inherently uncertain, and it is possible that one or more of the matters currently pending or threatened could have an adverse effect on our liquidity, financial condition or results of operations for any particular period.
On August 31, 2018, Nationstar Mortgage LLC d/b/a Mr. Cooper (“Nationstar”) filed a complaint in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania against Radian Guaranty related to certain insurance coverage and premium refund decisions made by Radian Guaranty. Effective June 26, 2020, Radian Guaranty and Nationstar entered into a Confidential Settlement Agreement and Release (the “Nationstar Settlement”) to fully resolve, among other things, all claims and counterclaims in this litigation. Implementation of the Nationstar Settlement, which was subject to the condition precedent that the GSEs consent to the Nationstar Settlement, became effective on March 1, 2021, and the litigation was subsequently dismissed with prejudice. Pursuant to the Nationstar Settlement, among other things: (i) Radian made a cash settlement payment to Nationstar on March 5, 2021 and (ii) each party agreed to release the other with respect to all known or unknown claims with respect to the certificates subject to this litigation as well as with respect to all other certificates issued under certain policies on loans serviced by Nationstar for which Radian decided claims prior to January 1, 2019. See Note 13 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2020 Form 10-K for additional background on this matter. The implementation of the Nationstar Settlement did not have a material impact on our mortgage insurance reserves for this proceeding.
We also are periodically subject to reviews and audits, as well as inquiries, information-gathering requests and investigations, by regulatory entities. In connection with these matters, from time to time we receive requests and subpoenas seeking information and documents related to aspects of our business.
Our Master Policies establish the timeline within which any suit or action arising from any right of an insured under the policy generally must be commenced. In general, any suit or action arising from any right of an insured under the policy must be commenced within two years after such right first arose for primary insurance and within three years for certain other policies, including certain Pool Mortgage Insurance policies. Although we believe that our Loss Mitigation Activities are justified under our policies, from time to time we face challenges from certain lender and servicer customers regarding our Loss Mitigation Activities. These challenges could result in additional arbitration or judicial proceedings and we may need to reassume the risk on, and increase loss reserves for, the associated policies or pay additional claims.
The legal and regulatory matters discussed above could result in adverse judgments, settlements, fines, injunctions, restitutions or other relief that could require significant expenditures or have other effects on our business in excess of amounts we have established as reserves for such matters.
Lease Liability
Our lease liability represents the present value of future lease payments over the lease term. Our operating lease liability was $56.0 million and $53.4 million as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, and is classified in other liabilities in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. See Note 9 for additional information on our operating lease right-of-use assets, including an impairment recognized in the second quarter of 2021 related to a decision to sublease the office space in our current corporate headquarters.
See Note 13 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2020 Form 10-K for further information regarding our commitments and contingencies and our accounting policies for contingencies.
14. Capital Stock
Share Repurchase Activity
On August 14, 2019, Radian Group’s board of directors approved a share repurchase program that authorizes the Company to spend up to $200 million, excluding commissions, to repurchase Radian Group common stock in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions, based on market and business conditions, stock price and other factors. Radian operated this program pursuant to a trading plan under Rule 10b5-1 of the Exchange Act, which permits the Company to purchase shares, at pre-determined price targets, when it may otherwise be precluded from doing so. On February 13, 2020, Radian Group’s board of directors authorized a $275 million increase in this program, bringing the total authorization to
35

Table of Contents Glossary | Radian Group Inc. Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

repurchase shares up to $475 million, excluding commissions, and extended the expiration of this program from July 31, 2020 to August 31, 2021. In March 2021, the Company entered into a new 10b5-1 plan and resumed purchases under this program which had been temporarily suspended in March 2020 in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company purchased 3,892,456 and 4,305,597 shares at an average price of $23.14 and $22.92 per share, respectively, including commissions. As of June 30, 2021, purchase authority of up to $100.2 million remained available under this program.
During July, the Company purchased 2,808,658 shares of its common stock under its share repurchase program at an average price of $21.86 per share, including commissions. After giving consideration to these repurchases, purchase authority of up to $38.9 million remained available under this program.
Other Purchases
We may purchase shares on the open market to settle stock options exercised by employees and purchases under the Amended and Restated Radian Group Inc. Employee Stock Purchase Plan. In addition, upon the vesting of certain restricted stock awards under our equity compensation plans, we may withhold from such vested awards shares of our common stock to satisfy the tax liability of the award recipients.
Dividends and Dividend Equivalents
During the first quarter of 2021 and each quarter of 2020, we declared quarterly cash dividends on our common stock equal to $0.125 per share. On May 4, 2021, Radian Group’s board of directors authorized an increase to the Company’s quarterly dividend from $0.125 to $0.14 per share, beginning with the dividend declared in the second quarter of 2021.
Share-Based and Other Compensation Programs
During the second quarter of 2021, executive and non-executive officers were granted time-vested and performance-based RSUs to be settled in common stock. The maximum payout of performance-based RSUs at the end of the three-year performance period is 200% of a grantee’s target number of RSUs granted. The vesting of the performance-based RSUs granted to executive and non-executive officers is based upon the cumulative growth in Radian’s book value per share, adjusted for certain defined items, over a three-year performance period. Performance-based RSUs granted to executive officers are subject to a one-year post vesting holding period.
The time-vested RSU awards granted to executive and non-executive officers in 2021 generally vest in pro rata installments on each of the first three anniversaries of the grant date. In addition, time-vested RSU awards were also granted to non-employee directors and generally are subject to one-year cliff vesting. See Note 17 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2020 Form 10-K for additional information regarding the Company’s share-based and other compensation programs.
Information with regard to RSUs to be settled in stock for periods indicated is as follows.

(1)Outstanding RSUs represent shares that have not yet been issued because not all conditions necessary to earn the right to benefit from the instruments have been satisfied. The final number of RSUs distributed depends on the cumulative growth in Radian's book value over the respective three-year performance period and, with the exception of certain retirement-eligible employees, continued service through the vesting date, which could result in changes in vested RSUs.
(2)For performance-based RSUs, number represents the number of target shares at grant date.
(3)For performance-based RSUs, represents the difference between the number of target shares at grant date and the number of shares vested at settlement, which can range from 0 to 200% of target depending on results over the applicable performance periods.
(4)Represents amounts vested during the year, including the impact of performance adjustments for performance-based awards.

16. Statutory Information
Our insurance subsidiaries’ statutory net income for the year-to-date periods ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 and statutory policyholders’ surplus as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 were as follows.

Radian Title Insurance |  | 31,627 |  |  | 28,849 |

State insurance regulations include various capital requirements and dividend restrictions based on our insurance subsidiaries’ statutory financial position and results of operations, as described below. As of June 30, 2021, the amount of restricted net assets held by our consolidated insurance subsidiaries (which represents our equity investment in those insurance subsidiaries) totaled $4.6 billion of our consolidated net assets.
In light of Radian Guaranty’s negative unassigned surplus related to operating losses in prior periods and the ongoing need to set aside contingency reserves, which totaled $3.6 billion as of June 30, 2021, we do not anticipate that Radian Guaranty will be permitted under applicable insurance laws to pay ordinary dividends or other distributions to Radian Group for the foreseeable future without the prior approval from the Pennsylvania Insurance Department.
Under state insurance regulations, Radian Guaranty is required to maintain minimum surplus levels and, in certain states, a maximum ratio of net RIF relative to statutory capital, or Risk-to-capital. There are 16 RBC States that currently impose a Statutory RBC Requirement. The most common Statutory RBC Requirement is that a mortgage insurer’s Risk-to-capital may not exceed 25 to 1. In certain of the RBC States, a mortgage insurer must satisfy a MPP Requirement. Radian Guaranty was in compliance with all applicable Statutory RBC Requirements and MPP Requirements in each of the RBC States as of June 30, 2021. Radian Guaranty’s Risk-to-capital was 11.4:1 and 12.7:1 as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. For purposes of the Risk-to-capital requirements imposed by certain states, statutory capital is defined as the sum of statutory policyholders’ surplus plus statutory contingency reserves. Our other mortgage insurance and title insurance subsidiaries were also in compliance with all statutory and counterparty capital requirements as of June 30, 2021.
In addition, in order to be eligible to insure loans purchased by the GSEs, mortgage insurers such as Radian Guaranty must meet the GSEs’ eligibility requirements, or PMIERs. At June 30, 2021, Radian Guaranty is an approved mortgage insurer under the PMIERs and is in compliance with the current PMIERs financial requirements. Under the PMIERs there are increased financial requirements for loans in default, including as a result of natural disasters and pandemics. As a result, increases in defaults related to the COVID-19 pandemic have subjected Radian Guaranty to an increase in Minimum Required Assets under the PMIERs, and if these continue or increase, would continue to negatively impact our results of operations and could impact our compliance with the PMIERs. See Note 1 for discussion about the elevated risks and uncertainties associated with the COVID-19 pandemic and Note 16 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2020 Form 10-K for additional information regarding the PMIERs, including the benefit provided by the Disaster Related Capital Charge.
Effective April 1, 2021, the Pennsylvania Insurance Department approved the termination of the 2020 Surplus Note via a conversion to Radian Guaranty’s gross paid-in and contributed surplus account. This conversion had no effect on Radian Guaranty’s total statutory policyholders’ surplus, Risk-to-capital or PMIERs Cushion.

Overview
We are a diversified mortgage and real estate business with two reportable business segments—Mortgage and homegenius. Our Mortgage segment provides credit-related insurance coverage, principally through private mortgage insurance on residential first-lien mortgage loans, as well as other credit risk management, contract underwriting and fulfillment solutions, to mortgage lending institutions and mortgage credit investors. Our homegenius segment offers a broad array of title, valuation, asset management, SaaS and other real estate services to mortgage lenders, mortgage and real estate investors, GSEs, real estate brokers and agents. Our homegenius segment was previously named “Real Estate” and during the second quarter of 2021 we renamed it “homegenius” to align with updates to our branding strategy for the segment’s products and services. As further discussed in Note 4 of Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, the homegenius segment name change had no impact on the composition of our segments or on our previously reported historical financial position, results of operations, cash flow or segment level results.
Current Operating Environment
As a seller of mortgage credit protection and other mortgage and credit risk management solutions, our Mortgage business results are subject to macroeconomic conditions and other events that impact the housing, real estate and housing finance markets, the credit performance of our underlying insured assets and our future business opportunities, including the current global pandemic as well as seasonal fluctuations that specifically affect the mortgage origination environment. The macroeconomic conditions, seasonality and other events that impact the housing, mortgage finance and related real estate markets also affect the demand for our products and services offered through our homegenius segment.
The unprecedented and continually evolving social and economic impacts associated with the COVID-19 pandemic on the U.S. and global economies generally, and in particular on the U.S. housing, real estate and housing finance markets, had a
39

Table of Contents Glossary Part I. Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

negative effect on our business and our financial results for the second quarter of 2020, and since then to a lesser extent. See “—COVID-19 Impacts” below for further discussion of the impacts on our business associated with the COVID-19 pandemic, including an increase in our new defaults and in our Minimum Required Assets under the PMIERs financial requirements.
Despite the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, we wrote record levels of NIW in 2020, totaling $105.0 billion. In the first half of 2021 we wrote NIW of $41.8 billion, a decrease of 1% compared to our NIW in the first half of 2020. We continue to believe that the long-term housing market fundamentals and outlook remain positive, including low interest rates, demographics supporting growth in the population of first-time homebuyers and a relatively constrained supply of homes available for sale. However, the low interest rate environment in recent periods has also resulted in an increase in policy cancellations associated with the high level of refinance activity, which has reduced our Persistency Rate, and in turn contributed to a reduction in our IIF, particularly as a result of a decline in our Single Premium Policies. This refinance activity has moderated in the three months ended June 30, 2021, and if this trend continues in the second half of 2021 we would expect the Persistency Rate for our portfolio to increase. See “Mortgage Insurance Portfolio” for additional details on our NIW and IIF.
In recent years, Radian and other participants in the private mortgage insurance industry have engaged in a range of risk distribution transactions and strategies and implemented enhanced risk-based pricing frameworks, which we believe have helped increase the financial strength and flexibility of the mortgage insurance industry by mitigating credit risk and financial volatility through varying economic cycles. As of June 30, 2021, 71% of our primary RIF is subject to a form of risk distribution and our estimated reinsurance recoverables related to our mortgage insurance portfolio were $74.0 million. Our use of risk distribution structures has reduced our required capital and enhanced our projected return on capital, and we expect these structures to provide a level of protection in periods of economic stress.
COVID-19 Impacts
The COVID-19 pandemic has created periods of significant economic disruption, high unemployment, volatility and disruption in financial markets, and required adjustments in the housing finance system and real estate markets. In addition, the pandemic has resulted in travel restrictions, temporary business shutdowns, and stay-at-home, quarantine, and similar orders, all of which contributed to a rapid and significant rise in unemployment that peaked in the second quarter of 2020. Since then, businesses have been reopened, and unemployment levels have declined from their peak, but numerous operating limitations such as social distancing and extensive health and safety measures continue to limit operations. As a result, unemployment levels remain elevated compared to pre-pandemic levels, and may remain elevated or may rise if the current economic disruption is prolonged, especially in light of the recent spread of COVID-19 variants.
As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on the economy, including the significant increase in unemployment, we experienced a material increase in new defaults in 2020, substantially all of which related to defaults of loans subject to forbearance programs implemented in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. The increase in the number of new mortgage defaults resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic has had a negative effect on our results of operations and our reserve for losses beginning in the second quarter of 2020. See Note 11 of Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on our reserve for losses.
Our primary default rate was 4.0% at June 30, 2021, down from a peak of 6.5% at June 30, 2020, which was elevated by the material increase in new defaults in the three months ended June 30, 2020. Favorable trends in the number of new defaults and Cures were the primary drivers of the decline in our default inventory and default rate, compared to their peaks at June 30, 2020. The number, timing and duration of new defaults and, in turn, the number of defaults that ultimately result in claims will depend on a variety of factors, including the scope, severity and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic, the resulting impact on the economy, including with respect to unemployment and housing prices, and the effectiveness of forbearance and other government efforts such as financial stimulus programs, to provide long-term economic and individual relief to assist homeowners. Consequently, the number and rate of total defaults is difficult to predict and will depend on the foregoing and other factors, including the number and timing of Cures and claims paid and the net impact on IIF from our Persistency Rate and future NIW. See “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our 2020 Form 10-K for additional discussion of these factors and other risks and uncertainties.
The increase in new defaults resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic may affect our ability to remain compliant with the PMIERs financial requirements. Once two missed payments have occurred on an insured loan, the PMIERs characterize the loan as “non-performing” and require us to establish an increased Minimum Required Asset factor for that loan regardless of the reason for the missed payments. During the COVID-19 Crisis Period, pursuant to the COVID-19 Amendment that amends the PMIERs, a Disaster Related Capital Charge that effectively reduces the Minimum Required Asset factor by 70% has been applied nationwide to all COVID-19 Defaulted Loans for no longer than three calendar months beginning with the month the loan becomes non-performing (i.e., missed two monthly payments), or if greater, the period of time that the loan is subject to a forbearance plan, repayment plan or loan modification trial period granted in response to a financial hardship related to COVID-19. Under the terms of the COVID-19 Amendment, the COVID-19 Crisis Period ended March 31, 2021. As a result, after March 31, 2021 the Disaster Related Capital Charge will no longer be applied to all new defaults, and instead will be applied only to new defaults if they are subject to a COVID-19 forbearance plan, regardless of whether the forbearance plan
40

Table of Contents Glossary Part I. Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

was entered into before or after the expiration of the COVID-19 Crisis Period. See “—COVID-19 Amendment to PMIERs” below for more information.
The application of the Disaster Related Capital Charge has significantly reduced the total amount of assets that Radian Guaranty otherwise would be required to hold against COVID-19 Defaulted Loans under the PMIERs. Nonetheless, even after giving effect to the Disaster Related Capital Charge, since March 31, 2020, the overall volume of new defaults resulting from the pandemic has resulted in an increase in Radian Guaranty’s Minimum Required Assets and negatively impacted Radian Guaranty’s PMIERs Cushion as of June 30, 2021. While we expect Radian Guaranty to continue to maintain its eligibility status with the GSEs, there are possible scenarios in which the number of new defaults could impact Radian Guaranty’s ability to comply with the PMIERs financial requirements. See “Item 1A. Risk Factors—Radian Guaranty may fail to maintain its eligibility status with the GSEs, and the additional capital required to support Radian Guaranty’s eligibility could reduce our available liquidity” in our 2020 Form 10-K.
As further described in this report, as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, we have experienced increased financial requirements under the PMIERs, lower Persistency Rates due to a low interest rate environment and increased reserves for losses due to higher new defaults. Although we are uncertain of the ultimate magnitude or duration of the business and economic impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, we expect that certain future developments, such as anticipated increases in our claims paid once current foreclosure moratoriums are lifted, will have an adverse impact on aspects of our business in future periods. See Note 1 of Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in this report and “Item 1A. Risk Factors—The COVID-19 pandemic has adversely impacted us, and its ultimate impact on our business and financial results will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including the scope, severity and duration of the pandemic and actions taken by governmental authorities in response to the pandemic” in our 2020 Form 10-K for additional information.
Legislative and Regulatory Developments
We are subject to comprehensive regulation by both federal and state regulatory authorities. For a description of significant state and federal regulations and other requirements of the GSEs that are applicable to our businesses, as well as legislative and regulatory developments affecting the housing finance industry, see “Item 1. Business—Regulation” in our 2020 Form 10-K. Except as discussed below, there were no significant regulatory developments impacting our businesses from those discussed in our 2020 Form 10-K.
COVID-19 Amendment to PMIERs
In 2020, in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the GSEs issued guidelines (“National Emergency Guidelines”) that became effective June 30, 2020 and, among other things, adopted the COVID-19 Amendment to the PMIERs to apply a Disaster Related Capital Charge nationwide to certain non-performing loans that we refer to as COVID-19 Defaulted Loans, which comprise non-performing loans that either: (i) have an Initial Missed Payment (discussed below) occurring during the COVID-19 Crisis Period or (ii) are subject to a forbearance plan granted in response to a financial hardship related to COVID-19 (which is assumed under the COVID-19 Amendment to be the case for any loan that has an Initial Missed Payment occurring during the COVID-19 Crisis Period and is subject to a forbearance plan), the terms of which are materially consistent with the terms of forbearance plans offered by the GSEs. The Disaster Related Capital Charge effectively reduces the Minimum Required Asset factor that applies to COVID-19 Defaulted Loans in recognition of the fact that these loans generally have a higher likelihood of curing. Under the COVID-19 Amendment, the Disaster Related Capital Charge applies for three calendar months beginning with the month the loan becomes non-performing (i.e., missed two monthly payments), or if greater, the period of time that the loan is subject to a forbearance plan, repayment plan or loan modification trial period granted in response to a financial hardship related to COVID-19.
Under the terms of the COVID-19 Amendment, the COVID-19 Crisis Period ended March 31, 2021. As a result, as of April 1, 2021 the Disaster Related Capital Charge is no longer applied to all new defaults, and instead is applied only to new defaults if they are subject to a COVID-19 forbearance plan, regardless of whether the forbearance plan was entered into before or after the expiration of the COVID-19 Crisis Period. The Disaster Related Capital Charge will continue to be applied to these COVID-19 Defaulted Loans for as long as they remain in the COVID-19 forbearance plan. With respect to defaults that occurred during the COVID-19 Crisis Period, the Disaster Related Capital Charge will continue to apply until: (i) they fail to enter a COVID-19 forbearance program within three calendar months beginning with the month the loan becomes non-performing (i.e., missed two monthly payments) or (ii) for defaults subject to a COVID-19 forbearance plan, repayment plan or loan modification trial period, they exit the program, plan or trial period without curing the default status. Given the ongoing improvement in new default trends, we do not expect the expiration of the COVID-19 Crisis Period to have a material impact on our business, results of operations or financial condition.
Further, pursuant to the National Emergency Guidelines, through June 30, 2021, certain capital preservation measures were instituted that required the consent of the GSEs for private mortgage insurers, including Radian Guaranty, to: (i) pay dividends or make payments of principal or increase payments of interest beyond those commitments made prior to June 30, 2020 associated with the Surplus Notes; (ii) make any other payments, unless related to expenses incurred in the normal course of business or to commitments made prior to June 30, 2020; (iii) pledge or transfer asset(s) to any affiliate or investor;
41

Table of Contents Glossary Part I. Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

or (iv) enter into any new arrangements or alter any existing arrangements under tax-sharing and intercompany expense-sharing agreements other than renewals and extensions of agreements in effect prior to June 30, 2020 (collectively, the “Capital Preservation Actions”). Effective July 1, 2021, the National Emergency Guidelines were modified to extend the capital preservation measures through December 31, 2021 and to provide an exception that would permit Radian Guaranty and the other private mortgage insurers to pay dividends and take the other Capital Preservation Actions without the GSEs’ prior consent as long as the private mortgage insurer’s PMIERs Cushion remains above an applicable threshold, as further described below. From July 1, 2021 through September 30, 2021, a private mortgage insurer may pay dividends or take the other Capital Preservation Actions without the prior consent of the GSEs as long as its PMIERs Cushion is 50% or greater than its Minimum Required Assets and taking such actions would not cause its PMIERs cushion to fall below 50% of its Minimum Required Assets as of the end of the quarter ending September 30, 2021. From October 1, 2021 through December 30, 2021, a private mortgage insurer may pay dividends or take the other Capital Preservation Actions without the prior consent of the GSEs as long as its PMIERs Cushion is 15% or greater than its Minimum Required Assets and taking such actions would not cause its PMIERs Cushion to fall below 15% of its Minimum Required Assets as of the end of the quarter ending December 31, 2021.
For additional information on the risks associated with the expiration of the COVID-19 Crisis Period and the capital preservation measures, see “Item 1A. Risk Factors—Radian Guaranty may fail to maintain its eligibility status with the GSEs, and the additional capital required to support Radian Guaranty’s eligibility could reduce our available liquidity” and “Radian Group’s sources of liquidity may be insufficient to fund its obligations” in our 2020 Form 10-K.
Change in FHFA Leadership
On June 23, 2021, following a U.S. Supreme Court decision that determined that the FHFA director may be removed by the President other than for cause, President Biden removed FHFA director Dr. Mark Calabria, who was appointed under the Trump Administration, and appointed Sandra Thompson as acting director of the FHFA. As discussed under “Item 1A. Risk Factors—Changes in the charters, business practices, or role of the GSEs in the U.S. housing market generally, could significantly impact our businesses” in our 2020 Form 10-K, a change in leadership at the FHFA could alter the policy priorities at the FHFA and modify the GSEs’ business practices in ways that have a significant impact on our businesses.
Qualified Mortgage (QM) Requirements - Ability to Repay Requirements
Under the Dodd-Frank Act, mortgage lenders must make a reasonable and good faith determination that, at the time the loan is consummated, the consumer has a reasonable ability to repay the loan (the “Ability to Repay Rule”). The Dodd-Frank Act provides that a creditor may presume that a borrower will be able to repay a loan if the loan has certain low-risk characteristics that meet the definition of a qualified mortgage, or QM (the “QM Rule”). This QM presumption is generally rebuttable; however, loans that are deemed to have the lowest risk profiles are granted a safe harbor from liability (“QM Safe Harbor”) related to the borrower’s ability to repay the loan. In implementing the QM Rule, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (“CFPB”) established rigorous underwriting and product feature requirements for loans to be deemed QMs (“Original QM Definition”), including that the borrower does not exceed a 43% debt-to-income ratio after giving effect to the loan. As part of the Original QM Definition, the CFPB also created a special exemption for the GSEs, which is generally referred to as the “QM Patch,” that allows any loan that meets the GSE underwriting and product feature requirements to be deemed to be a QM, regardless of whether the loan exceeds the 43% debt-to-income ratio. The QM Patch expired on July 1, 2021.
In December 2020, the CFPB finalized two new definitions of QM. One of these new QM definitions (the “New General QM Definition”) is intended to replace the underwriting focused approach of the Original QM Definition, including the 43% debt-to-income ratio limitation, with a new pricing-based approach to QM. Under the New General QM Definition, certain underwriting considerations are retained, but QM status generally is achieved if the loan is priced at no greater than 2.25% above the Average Prime Offer Rate (“APOR”). Loans priced at or less than 1.5% above APOR are subject to the QM Safe Harbor, while all other QM loans would receive the general rebuttable presumption that the loans met the ability to repay standard. Separately, the CFPB created another new QM definition (“Seasoned QM”) for first-lien, fixed-rate loans that meet certain performance requirements over a 36-month seasoning period and are held in the lender’s portfolio until the end of the seasoning period. Both new QM definitions became effective on March 1, 2021. The New General QM Definition originally had a mandatory compliance date of July 1, 2021, after which the Original QM Definition and QM Patch would no longer apply. The CFPB recently issued a rule delaying the mandatory compliance deadline for the New General QM Definition until October 1, 2022, thereby preserving the Original QM Definition and QM Patch until such date.
On April 8, 2021, the GSEs announced that for loan applications received on or after July 1, 2021 they will only purchase loans satisfying the New General QM Definition. As a result, even though the CFPB has delayed the mandatory compliance date for the New General QM Definition until October 1, 2022, for GSE-acquired loans with applications received on or after July 1, 2021, the QM Patch effectively will be limited to loans that satisfy the New General QM Definition. We expect that this decision by the GSEs will reduce the number of loans that otherwise would be designated QM compared to those receiving QM designation under the QM Patch, although not materially. For more information regarding the CFPB’s proposed New General QM Definition and the risks it may present for us, see “Item 1A. Risk Factors—A decrease in the volume of mortgage originations could result in fewer opportunities for us to write new mortgage insurance business and conduct our Real Estate business” in our 2020 Form 10-K.

Recent Company Developments
During the second quarter of 2021, we introduced “homegenius” as the new name for our former Real Estate segment. We renamed the segment “homegenius” to align with updates to our branding strategy for the segment’s products and services. Our homegenius business segment encompasses a suite of existing and emerging digital products and services that leverage big data and analytics and are powered by advanced technology to serve real estate agents, lenders, investors and consumers across the real estate ecosystem. We expect the homegenius segment to contribute to the future growth and results of operations of the Company.
During the second quarter of 2021, in response to the COVID-19 pandemic and Radian’s successful transition to a virtual work environment, we made the decision to exit, and to actively market for sublease, all office space in our current corporate headquarters. As part of this change, we also entered into a new lease with reduced square footage at another Philadelphia area location, which will offer flexible, virtual and hybrid work arrangements to our employees and upon opening we intend to designate as our new corporate headquarters location. See Note 9 of Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information, including details on related impairments.
Key Factors Affecting Our Results
The key factors affecting our results are discussed in our 2020 Form 10-K. There have been no material changes to these key factors.

(1)Policy years represent the original policy years, and have not been adjusted to reflect subsequent refinancing activity under HARP.
(2)Adjusted to reflect subsequent refinancing activity under HARP, these percentages would decrease to 3.5%, 3.7% and 4.2% as of June 30, 2021, December 31, 2020 and June 30, 2020, respectively.
New Insurance Written
A key component of our current business strategy is to write profitable NIW. We wrote $21.7 billion and $41.8 billion of primary new mortgage insurance in the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively, compared to $25.5 billion and $42.1 billion of NIW in the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively. As shown in the chart above, IIF decreased to $237.3 billion at June 30, 2021, from $246.1 billion at December 31, 2020, driven by a lower Persistency Rate, partially offset by our NIW for the first six months of 2021.
Our NIW decreased by 14.9% and 0.9% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2020, due to our lower market share partially offset by increases in purchase mortgage originations. According to industry forecasts, total mortgage origination volume was higher for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, as compared to the comparable period in 2020, due to a strong purchase market and, for the six months ended June 30, 2021, an increase in refinance originations resulting from the low interest rate environment.
Although it is difficult to project future volumes, recent market projections for 2021 estimate total mortgage originations of approximately $3.9 trillion, which would represent a decline in the total annual mortgage origination market of 5-10% as
43

Table of Contents Glossary Part I. Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

compared to 2020, with a private mortgage insurance market of $550 to $600 billion. This outlook anticipates a decrease in refinance originations in the second half of 2021. While expectations for refinance volume vary, there is consensus around a large purchase market driven by increased home sales, which is a positive for mortgage insurers given the higher likelihood that purchase loans will utilize private mortgage insurance as compared to refinance loans. If refinance volume declines, we would expect the Persistency Rate for our portfolio to increase, benefiting the size of our IIF portfolio. See "Overview—COVID-19 Impacts” above and “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our 2020 Form 10-K for more information.
NIW for direct Single Premiums include policies written on an individual basis (as each loan is originated) and on an aggregated basis (in which each individual loan in a group of loans is insured in a single transaction, typically after the loans have been originated). The following table provides selected information as of and for the periods indicated related to our mortgage insurance NIW.

See “Item 1. Business—Regulation—Federal Regulation—GSE Requirements” in our 2020 Form 10-K for additional information.
(2)For loans with multiple borrowers, the percentage of NIW by FICO score represents the lowest of the borrowers’ FICO scores.
Insurance and Risk in Force
IIF at June 30, 2021 decreased 1.7% as compared to the same period last year, reflecting a 28.2% decline in Single Premium Policies in force, partially offset by an 8.1% increase in Monthly Premium Policies in force. Historically, there is a close correlation between interest rates and Persistency Rates. Lower interest rate environments generally increase refinancings, which increase the cancellation rate of our insurance and negatively affect our Persistency Rates. As shown in the table below, our Persistency Rate for the 12 months ended June 30, 2021 declined as compared to the same period in 2020. The decline in our Persistency Rate and the related decline in our Single Premium Policies in force at June 30, 2021, were attributable to increased refinance activity resulting from historically low interest rates, which led to an increase in Single

Premium Policy cancellations. This increase in Single Premium Policy cancellations was the primary driver of the decrease in unearned premiums on our condensed consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 2021 as compared to December 31, 2020.
Our IIF is the primary driver of the future premiums that we expect to earn over time. Although not reflected in the current period financial statements, nor in our reported book value, we expect our IIF to generate substantial premiums in future periods, due to the high credit quality of our current mortgage insurance portfolio and its expected persistency over multiple years. See “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Key Factors Affecting Our Results—Mortgage—IIF and Related Drivers” in our 2020 Form 10-K for more information.
Our earnings in future periods are subject to elevated risks and uncertainties due to the potential impact of the unprecedented and continually evolving social and economic impacts associated with the COVID-19 pandemic on the U.S. and global economies generally, and in particular on the U.S. housing, real estate and housing finance markets. See Note 1 of Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information about the COVID-19 pandemic, which could have a material negative effect on the Company’s business, liquidity, results of operations and financial condition. See “Overview—COVID-19 Impacts” and, in our 2020 Form 10-K, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” for additional information.
Historical loan performance data indicates that credit scores and underwriting quality are key predictors of credit performance. As of June 30, 2021, substantially all of our total primary RIF is comprised of our portfolio of business written subsequent to 2008 and has consisted primarily of high credit quality loans with significantly better credit performance than loans originated during 2008 and prior periods. Although our actual and expected future losses on our portfolio written after 2008, together with refinancings under HARP, are significantly lower than those experienced on our NIW prior to and including 2008, the impact to our future losses from the COVID-19 pandemic, including from elevated levels of unemployment, which may be prolonged, is highly uncertain.
Throughout this report, unless otherwise noted, RIF is presented on a gross basis and includes the amount ceded under reinsurance. RIF and IIF for direct Single Premiums include policies written on an individual basis (as each loan is originated) and on an aggregated basis (in which each individual loan in a group of loans is insured in a single transaction, typically after the loans have been originated).

Risk Distribution
We use third-party reinsurance in our mortgage insurance business as part of our risk distribution strategy, including to manage our capital position and risk profile. When we enter into a reinsurance agreement, the reinsurer receives a premium and, in exchange, insures an agreed-upon portion of incurred losses. While these arrangements have the impact of reducing our earned premiums, they reduce our required capital and are expected to increase our return on required capital for the related policies. The impact of these programs on our financial results will vary depending on the level of ceded RIF, as well as the levels of prepayments and incurred losses on the reinsured portfolios, among other factors. See “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Key Factors Affecting Our Results—Mortgage—Risk Distribution” and Note 8 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2020 Form 10-K for more information about our reinsurance transactions.

Results of Operations—Consolidated
Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2021 Compared to Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2020
Radian Group serves as the holding company for our operating subsidiaries and does not have any operations of its own. Our consolidated operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2020 primarily reflect the financial results and performance of our two reportable business segments—Mortgage and homegenius. See Note 4 of Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for information regarding modifications to our segment reporting in 2020, including for the wind down of our traditional appraisal business announced in the fourth quarter of 2020. All changes in 2020 to the composition of our reportable segments have been reflected in our segment operating results for all periods presented. See “Results of Operations—Mortgage” and “Results of Operations—homegenius” for the operating results of these business segments for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, compared to the same periods in 2020.
In addition to the results of our operating segments, pretax income (loss) is also affected by those factors described in “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Key Factors Affecting Our Results” in our 2020 Form 10-K.

Net Income (Loss). As discussed in more detail below, our net income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, increased as compared to the same periods in 2020, primarily reflecting a decrease in provision for losses related to our Mortgage segment. Partially offsetting this item was: (i) a decrease in net gains on investments and other financial instruments; (ii) an increase in other operating expenses; and (iii) an increase in interest expense.
Diluted Net Income (Loss) Per Share. The increase in diluted net income per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, compared to the same periods in 2020, is primarily due to the increase in net income, as discussed above.
Book Value Per Share. The increase in book value per share from $22.36 at December 31, 2020, to $23.02 at June 30, 2021, is primarily due to our net income for the six months ended June 30, 2021. Partially offsetting this item is: (i) a decrease of $0.44 per share due to unrealized losses in our available for sale securities, recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income and (ii) a $0.27 per share impact of dividends.
Net Gains (Losses) on Investments and Other Financial Instruments. The decrease in net gains on investments and other financial instruments for the three months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to the same period in 2020, is primarily due to: (i) a decrease in net unrealized gains on our trading securities; (ii) a decrease in net realized gains on our fixed-maturities available for sale; and (iii) a decrease in the fair value of our embedded derivatives. The decrease in net gains on investments and other financial instruments for the six months ended June 30, 2021, as compared to the same period in 2020, is primarily due to: (i) a decrease in net realized gains on our fixed-maturities available for sale; (ii) a decrease in the fair value of our embedded derivatives; and (iii) a decrease in gains on other financial instruments. These decreases were partially offset by an
48

Table of Contents Glossary Part I. Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

increase in net unrealized gains on our trading securities. See Notes 5 and 6 of Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information about the embedded derivatives associated with our reinsurance obtained through mortgage linked-notes transactions and net gains (losses) on investments, respectively.
Income Tax Provision. Our income tax provision increased in 2021 primarily due to higher pretax income. Our effective tax rate was 20.6% and 21.3% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively, as compared to 29.1% and 20.5% for the same respective periods in 2020. Our effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 approximated the federal statutory rate of 21%. The increase in our effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2020 was primarily due to the proportional effects of permanent book-to-tax adjustments to our pretax loss for that three-month period.
Return on Equity. The change in return on equity is primarily due to the increase in net income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, as described above.
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures. In addition to the traditional GAAP financial measures, we have presented “adjusted pretax operating income (loss),” “adjusted diluted net operating income (loss) per share” and “adjusted net operating return on equity,” which are non-GAAP financial measures for the consolidated company, among our key performance indicators to evaluate our fundamental financial performance. These non-GAAP financial measures align with the way our business performance is evaluated by both management and by our board of directors. These measures have been established in order to increase transparency for the purposes of evaluating our operating trends and enabling more meaningful comparisons with our peers. Although on a consolidated basis “adjusted pretax operating income (loss),” “adjusted diluted net operating income (loss) per share” and “adjusted net operating return on equity” are non-GAAP financial measures, for the reasons discussed above we believe these measures aid in understanding the underlying performance of our operations.
Total adjusted pretax operating income (loss), adjusted diluted net operating income (loss) per share and adjusted net operating return on equity are not measures of overall profitability, and therefore should not be considered in isolation or viewed as substitutes for GAAP pretax income (loss), diluted net income (loss) per share or return on equity. Our definitions of adjusted pretax operating income (loss), adjusted diluted net operating income (loss) per share and adjusted net operating return on equity, as discussed and reconciled below to the most comparable respective GAAP measures, may not be comparable to similarly-named measures reported by other companies.
Our senior management, including our Chief Executive Officer (Radian’s chief operating decision maker), uses adjusted pretax operating income (loss) as our primary measure to evaluate the fundamental financial performance of the Company’s business segments and to allocate resources to the segments. See Note 4 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements and “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Results of Operations—Consolidated—Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” each in our 2020 Form 10-K for detailed information regarding items excluded from adjusted pretax operating income and the reasons for their treatment.
Adjusted pretax operating income (loss) is defined as GAAP consolidated pretax income (loss) excluding the effects of: (i) net gains (losses) on investments and other financial instruments; (ii) loss on extinguishment of debt; (iii) amortization and impairment of goodwill and other acquired intangible assets; and (iv) impairment of other long-lived assets and other non-operating items, such as impairment of internal-use software, gains (losses) from the sale of lines of business and acquisition-related income and expenses.

(2)Includes allocation of corporate operating expenses of $33.0 million and $60.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively, and $25.4 million and $54.6 million for the same periods in 2020. See Note 4 of Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for more information about our allocation of corporate operating expenses to segments.
Adjusted Pretax Operating Income (Loss). Our Mortgage segment’s adjusted pretax operating income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, compared to adjusted pretax operating loss for the same period in 2020, primarily reflects a decrease in provision for losses. Partially offsetting this item is: (i) an increase in other operating expenses and (ii) an increase in interest expense. Our Mortgage segment’s adjusted pretax operating income for the six months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to the same period in 2020, was also impacted by a decrease in net premiums earned. See “—Net Premiums Written and Earned” and “—Provision for Losses” below for more information about our net premiums earned and provision for losses, respectively.
Net Premiums Written and Earned. Net premiums written for the three months ended June 30, 2021 increased, while net premiums written for the six months ended June 30, 2021 decreased, compared to the same periods in 2020. Higher ceded losses recorded in both the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, resulted in elevated ceded premiums due to a reduction in accrued profit commissions, which lowered net premiums written in those periods. The subsequent improvement in accrued profit commissions in 2021 was partially offset for the three months ended June 30, 2021, and more than offset for the six months ended June 30, 2021, by lower direct premium rates on our IIF portfolio compared to the same periods in 2020, as well as a lower proportion of Single Premium Policies.

(1)Primarily includes premiums earned from our participation in certain credit risk transfer programs.
(2)Includes the impact of related profit commissions.
(3)Represents the profit commission on the Single Premium QSR Program, excluding the impact of Single Premium Policy cancellations.
(4)Calculated by dividing annualized direct premiums earned, including assumed revenue and excluding revenue from cancellations, by average primary IIF.
(5)Calculated by dividing annualized net premiums earned by average primary IIF.
Net premiums earned decreased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the same periods in 2020, primarily due to: (i) a decrease in premiums earned on our in-force Single Premium Policies and Monthly Premium Policies and (ii) a decrease in the impact, net of reinsurance, from Single Premium Policy cancellations related to decreased refinance activity, as compared to the same period in 2020. These decreases were partially offset by a decrease in ceded premiums, which were elevated in 2020 due to reduced profit commissions as a result of higher ceded losses in 2020.
The level of mortgage prepayments affects the revenue ultimately produced by our mortgage insurance business and is influenced by the mix of business we write. We believe that writing a mix of Single Premium Policies and Monthly Premium Policies has the potential to moderate the overall impact on our results if actual prepayments are significantly different from expectations. However, the impact of this moderating effect is affected by the amount of reinsurance we obtain on portions of our portfolio, with the Single Premium QSR Program currently reducing the proportion of retained Single Premium Policies in our portfolio. See “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Key Factors Affecting Our Results—Mortgage—IIF and Related Drivers” in our 2020 Form 10-K for more information.

Net Investment Income. Lower investment yields, partially offset by higher average investment balances, resulted in decreases in net investment income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, compared to the same periods in 2020. Our higher average investment balances were a result of investing our positive cash flows from operations.
Provision for Losses. The following table details the financial impact of the significant components of our provision for losses for the periods indicated.

Reserve per new default (4) |  | $ | 4,211 |  |  | $ | 4,908 |  |  | $ | 4,291 |  |  | $ | 4,887 |

(1)Related to defaulted loans with a most recent default notice dated in the period indicated. For example, if a loan had defaulted in a prior period, but then subsequently cured and later re-defaulted in the current period, the default would be considered a current period default.
(2)Related to defaulted loans with a default notice dated in a period earlier than the period indicated, which have been continuously in default since that time.
(3)Provision for losses as a percentage of net premiums earned. See below and “—Net Premiums Written and Earned” for further discussion of the components of this ratio.
(4)Calculated by dividing provision for losses for new defaults, net of reinsurance, by new primary defaults for each period.
Our mortgage insurance provision for losses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 decreased by $300.7 million and $290.1 million, respectively, as compared to the same periods in 2020. Reserves established for new default notices were the primary driver of our total incurred losses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020. Current period new primary defaults decreased significantly for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, compared to the same periods in 2020, as shown below. The decreases primarily relate to a decrease in the number of new default notices related to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, as compared to the same periods last year. Our gross Default to Claim Rate assumption for new primary defaults was 8.0% at June 30, 2021, compared to 8.5% at June 30, 2020.
Our provision for losses during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 benefited from favorable reserve development on prior period defaults, based on more favorable trends in Cures than originally estimated. As a result of these observed trends during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, we made adjustments to the prior Default to Claim Rate assumptions for default notices reported between April 2020 and December 2020. See Notes 1 and 11 of Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and, in our 2020 Form 10-K, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” for additional information.

We develop our Default to Claim Rate estimates based primarily on models that use a variety of loan characteristics to determine the likelihood that a default will reach claim status. Our gross Default to Claim Rate estimates are mainly developed

Table of Contents Glossary Part I. Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

based on the Stage of Default and Time in Default of the underlying defaulted loans, as measured by the progress toward foreclosure sale and the number of months in default. See Note 11 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2020 Form 10-K for additional details about our Default to Claim Rate assumptions.
Our aggregate weighted average net Default to Claim Rate assumption for our primary loans used in estimating our reserve for losses, which is net of estimated Claim Denials and Rescissions, was approximately 34% and 24% at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. This increase was primarily due to a shift in the mix of defaults during the three months ended June 30, 2021, given the smaller proportion of loans with fewer missed payments. Our net Default to Claim Rate and loss reserve estimate incorporates our expectations with respect to future Rescissions, Claim Denials and Claim Curtailments. Our estimate of such net future Loss Mitigation Activities, inclusive of claim withdrawals, reduced our loss reserve as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 by $29.8 million and $29.1 million, respectively. These expectations are based primarily on recent claim withdrawal activity and our recent experience with respect to the number of claims that have been denied due to the policyholder’s failure to submit sufficient documentation to perfect a claim within the time period permitted under our Master Policies and also our recent experience with respect to the number of insurance certificates that have been rescinded due to fraud, underwriter negligence or other factors.
Our mortgage insurance total loss reserve as a percentage of our mortgage insurance total RIF was 1.5% and 1.4% at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. See Note 11 of Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for information regarding our reserves for losses and a reconciliation of our Mortgage segment’s beginning and ending reserves for losses and LAE.
We considered the sensitivity of our loss reserve estimates at June 30, 2021 by assessing the potential changes resulting from a parallel shift in Claim Severity and Default to Claim Rate for primary loans. For example, assuming all other factors remain constant, for every one percentage point absolute change in primary Claim Severity for our primary insurance risk exposure (which we estimated to be 98.3% of our risk exposure at June 30, 2021, compared to 97.5% at December 31, 2020), we estimated that our total loss reserve at June 30, 2021 would change by approximately $8.6 million. Assuming the portfolio mix and all other factors remain constant, for every one percentage point absolute change in our primary net Default to Claim Rate, we estimated a $24.4 million change in our primary loss reserve at June 30, 2021.
Total mortgage insurance claims paid of $4.2 million and $14.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively, decreased from claims paid of $22.8 million and $46.2 million for the same respective periods in 2020. The decrease in claims paid is primarily attributable to COVID-19-related forbearance plans and suspensions of foreclosure and evictions. Claims paid in both periods also include the impact of commutations and settlements. Although expected claims are included in our reserve for losses, the timing of claims paid is subject to fluctuation from quarter to quarter, based on the rate that defaults cure and other factors (as described in “Item 1. Business—Mortgage Insurance—Defaults and Claims” in our 2020 Form 10-K) that make the timing of paid claims difficult to predict.
The following table shows net claims paid and average primary claim paid for the periods indicated.

Other Operating Expenses. Other operating expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 increased as compared to the same periods in 2020, primarily due to: (i) an increase in variable and share-based incentive compensation expense in 2021, including as part of allocated corporate operating expenses and (ii) a decrease in ceding commissions.

Our expense ratio on a net premiums earned basis represents our Mortgage segment’s operating expenses (which include policy acquisition costs and other operating expenses, as well as allocated corporate operating expenses), expressed as a percentage of net premiums earned. Our expense ratio was 26.4% and 24.4% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively, compared to 20.2% and 21.1% for the same periods in 2020, respectively. The increase in other operating expenses, as compared to the same periods in the prior year, was the primary driver of the increase in the expense ratio.
Interest Expense. The increase in interest expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, as compared to the same periods in 2020, primarily reflects an increase in our senior notes outstanding in 2021 compared to 2020. See Note 12 of Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on our senior notes.

Adjusted Pretax Operating Income (Loss). Our homegenius segment’s adjusted pretax operating loss for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 was $9.2 million and $19.7 million, respectively, compared to adjusted pretax operating loss of $3.9 million and $7.1 million for the same periods in 2020, respectively. The increase in our adjusted pretax operating loss for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, as compared to the same periods in 2020, was primarily driven by: (i) an increase in variable and share-based incentive compensation expense in 2021, including as part of allocated corporate operating expenses and (ii) continued strategic investments focused on our title and digital real estate businesses. Such investments contributed to an increase in total expenses, which was partially offset by increases in net premiums earned and services revenue attributable to our title and valuation services businesses.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Consolidated Cash Flows
The following table summarizes our consolidated cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities.

Summary cash flows - Consolidated
|  | Six Months Ended June 30,
(In thousands) |  | 2021 |  | 2020
Net cash provided by (used in): |  |  |  |
Operating activities |  | $ | 275,896 |  |  | $ | 305,291 |
Investing activities |  | (76,393) |  |  | (580,435) |
Financing activities |  | (155,742) |  |  | 263,536 |
Increase (decrease) in cash and restricted cash |  | $ | 43,761 |  |  | $ | (11,608) |

Operating Activities. Our most significant source of operating cash flows is from premiums received from our mortgage insurance policies, while our most significant uses of operating cash flows are for our operating expenses and claims paid on our mortgage insurance policies. Net cash provided by operating activities totaled $275.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, a slight decrease compared to $305.3 million for the same period in 2020. This decrease was principally due to lower direct premiums written, partially offset by a reduction in claims paid for the six months ended June 30, 2021.
Investing Activities. Net cash used in investing activities was $76.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, compared to $580.4 million used in investing activities for the same period in 2020. This change was primarily the result of an increase in proceeds from redemptions and decreases in purchases of both short-term investments, net, and fixed-maturity investments available for sale, partially offset by decreases in proceeds from sales of investments.
Financing Activities. Net cash used in financing activities was $155.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $263.5 million for the same period in 2020. For the six months ended June 30, 2021, our primary financing activities included: (i) repurchases of our common shares; (ii) payment of dividends; and (iii) net repayments of secured borrowings. For the six months ended June 30, 2020, cash provided by financing activities included the issuance of Senior Notes due 2025, partially offset by: (i) repurchases of our common shares and (ii) payments of dividends. See Notes 12 and 14 of Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information regarding our borrowings and share repurchases, respectively.

Liquidity Analysis—Holding Company
Radian Group serves as the holding company for our operating subsidiaries and does not have any operations of its own. At June 30, 2021, Radian Group had available, either directly or through unregulated subsidiaries, unrestricted cash and liquid investments of $923.0 million. Available liquidity at June 30, 2021 excludes certain additional cash and liquid investments that have been advanced to Radian Group from its subsidiaries to pay for corporate expenses and interest payments. Total liquidity, which includes our undrawn $267.5 million unsecured revolving credit facility, as described below, was $1.2 billion as of June 30, 2021.
During the six months ended June 30, 2021, Radian Group’s available liquidity decreased by $179.7 million, primarily due to payments for share repurchases and dividends, as described below.
In addition to available cash and marketable securities, Radian Group’s principal sources of cash to fund future liquidity needs include: (i) payments made to Radian Group by its subsidiaries under expense- and tax-sharing arrangements; (ii) net investment income earned on its cash and marketable securities; (iii) to the extent available, dividends or other distributions from its subsidiaries; and (iv) amounts, if any, that Radian Guaranty is able to repay under the 2017 Surplus Note. Radian Group also has in place a $267.5 million unsecured revolving credit facility with a syndicate of bank lenders, which has a maturity date of January 18, 2022. Subject to certain limitations, borrowings under the credit facility may be used for working capital and general corporate purposes, including, without limitation, capital contributions to our insurance and reinsurance subsidiaries as well as growth initiatives. At June 30, 2021, the full $267.5 million remains undrawn and available under the facility. The credit facility has a minimum liquidity requirement of $35 million. See Note 12 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2020 Form 10-K for additional information on the unsecured revolving credit facility.
We expect Radian Group’s principal liquidity demands for the next 12 months to be: (i) the payment of corporate expenses, including taxes; (ii) interest payments on our outstanding debt obligations; (iii) subject to approval by our board of directors and our ongoing assessment of our financial condition, the payment of quarterly dividends on our common stock, which we increased in May 2021 from $0.125 to $0.14 per share; and (iv) the potential continued repurchases of shares of our common stock pursuant to our current and potential future share repurchase authorizations.
In addition to our ongoing short-term liquidity needs discussed above, our most significant need for liquidity beyond the next 12 months is the repayment of $1.4 billion aggregate principal amount of our senior debt due in future years. See “—Capitalization—Holding Company” below for details of our debt maturity profile. Radian Group’s liquidity demands for the next 12 months or in future periods could also include: (i) early repurchases or redemptions of portions of our debt obligations; (ii) potential additional investments to support our business strategy; and (iii) potential additional capital contributions to its subsidiaries, including due to the continuing impact that the COVID-19 pandemic could have on the liquidity, results of operations and financial condition of Radian Group and its subsidiaries. In our 2020 Form 10-K, see “Item 1A. Risk Factors,” including “—Radian Group’s sources of liquidity may be insufficient to fund its obligations” and “—Radian Guaranty may fail to maintain its eligibility status with the GSEs, and the additional capital required to support Radian Guaranty’s eligibility could reduce our available liquidity” for additional discussion about the elevated risks and uncertainties associated with the COVID-19 pandemic and the potential impact to Radian Guaranty’s Minimum Required Assets. See also Notes 1 and 16 of Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and “Overview—COVID-19 Impacts” for further information.
If Radian Group’s current sources of liquidity are insufficient to fund its obligations, or if we otherwise decide to increase our liquidity position, Radian Group may seek additional capital, including by incurring additional debt, issuing additional equity, or selling assets, which we may not be able to do on favorable terms, if at all.
Share Repurchases. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company repurchased 4.3 million shares of Radian Group common stock under programs authorized by Radian Group’s board of directors, at a total cost of $98.7 million, including commissions. See Note 14 of Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional details on our share repurchase program.
Dividends and Dividend Equivalents. Throughout 2020, and for the first quarter of 2021, our quarterly common stock dividend was $0.125 per share. Effective May 4, 2021, Radian Group’s board of directors authorized an increase to the Company’s quarterly dividend to $0.14 per share. Based on our current outstanding shares of common stock and restricted stock units, we would require approximately $106 million in the aggregate to pay dividends and dividend equivalents for the next 12 months. Radian Group is not subject to any limitations on its ability to pay dividends except those generally applicable to corporations that are incorporated in Delaware. The declaration and payment of future quarterly dividends remains subject to the board of directors’ determination.
Corporate Expenses and Interest Expense. Radian Group has expense-sharing arrangements in place with its principal operating subsidiaries that require those subsidiaries to pay their allocated share of certain holding-company-level expenses, including interest payments on Radian Group’s outstanding debt obligations. Corporate expenses and interest expense on Radian Group’s debt obligations allocated under these arrangements during the six months ended June 30, 2021 of $69.6 million and $41.3 million, respectively, were substantially all reimbursed by its subsidiaries. We expect substantially all of our holding company expenses to continue to be reimbursed by our subsidiaries under our expense-sharing arrangements.
58

Table of Contents Glossary Part I. Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The expense-sharing arrangements between Radian Group and its mortgage insurance subsidiaries, as amended, have been approved by the Pennsylvania Insurance Department, but such approval may be modified or revoked at any time.
Taxes. Pursuant to our tax-sharing agreements, our operating subsidiaries pay Radian Group an amount equal to any federal income tax the subsidiary would have paid on a standalone basis if they were not part of our consolidated tax return. As a result, from time to time, under the provisions of our tax-sharing agreements, Radian Group may pay to or receive from its operating subsidiaries amounts that differ from Radian Group’s consolidated federal tax payment obligatio n. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, Radian Group received $12.7 million of tax-sharing agreement payments from its operating subsidiaries.
Capitalization—Holding Company
The following table presents our holding company capital structure.

Capital structure
(In thousands) |  | June 30, 2021 |  | December 31, 2020
Debt |  |  |  |
Senior Notes due 2024 |  | $ | 450,000 |  |  | $ | 450,000 |
Senior Notes due 2025 |  | 525,000 |  |  | 525,000 |
Senior Notes due 2027 |  | 450,000 |  |  | 450,000 |
Deferred debt costs on senior notes |  | (17,455) |  |  | (19,326) |
Revolving credit facility |  | — |  |  | — |
Total |  | 1,407,545 |  |  | 1,405,674 |
Stockholders’ equity |  | 4,333,833 |  |  | 4,284,353 |
Total capitalization |  | $ | 5,741,378 |  |  | $ | 5,690,027 |
Debt-to-capital ratio |  | 24.5 | % |  | 24.7 | %

Stockholders’ equity increased by $49.5 million from December 31, 2020 to June 30, 2021. The net increase in stockholders’ equity for the six months ended June 30, 2021 resulted primarily from our net income of $280.8 million, partially offset by share repurchases of $98.7 million, unrealized losses on investments of $84.9 million and dividends of $52.3 million.
We regularly evaluate opportunities, based on market conditions, to finance our operations by accessing the capital markets or entering into other types of financing arrangements with institutional and other lenders and financing sources, and consider various measures to improve our capital and liquidity positions, as well as to strengthen our balance sheet, improve Radian Group’s debt maturity profile and maintain adequate liquidity for our operations. In the past we have repurchased and exchanged, prior to maturity, some of our outstanding debt, and in the future, we may from time to time seek to redeem, repurchase or exchange for other securities, or otherwise restructure or refinance some or all of our outstanding debt prior to maturity in the open market through other public or private transactions, including pursuant to one or more tender offers or through any combination of the foregoing, as circumstances may allow. The timing or amount of any potential transactions will depend on a number of factors, including market opportunities and our views regarding our capital and liquidity positions and potential future needs, including as a result of the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. There can be no assurance that any such transactions will be completed on favorable terms, or at all.
Mortgage
The principal demands for liquidity in our Mortgage business currently include: (i) the payment of claims and potential claim settlement transactions, net of reinsurance; (ii) expenses (including those allocated from Radian Group); (iii) repayments of FHLB advances; (iv) repayments, if any, associated with the 2017 Surplus Note; and (v) taxes, including potential additional purchases of U.S. Mortgage Guaranty Tax and Loss Bonds. See Notes 10 and 16 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2020 Form 10-K for additional information related to these non-interest bearing instruments.
The principal sources of liquidity in our mortgage insurance business currently include insurance premiums, net investment income and cash flows from: (i) investment sales and maturities; (ii) FHLB advances; and (iii) capital contributions from Radian Group. We believe that the operating cash flows generated by each of our mortgage insurance subsidiaries will provide these subsidiaries with a substantial portion of the funds necessary to satisfy their needs for the foreseeable future. However, see “Overview—COVID-19 Impacts” and Note 1 of Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for discussion about the elevated risks and uncertainties associated with the COVID-19 pandemic, including the impact on our PMIERs Cushion.
59

Table of Contents Glossary Part I. Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

As of June 30, 2021, our mortgage insurance subsidiaries maintained claims paying resources of $5.6 billion on a statutory basis, which consists of contingency reserves, statutory policyholders’ surplus, premiums received but not yet earned and loss reserves. In addition, our reinsurance programs are designed to provide additional claims-paying resources during times of economic stress and elevated losses. See Note 8 of Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
Radian Guaranty’s Risk-to-capital as of June 30, 2021 was 11.4 to 1. Radian Guaranty is not expected to need additional capital to satisfy state insurance regulatory requirements in their current form. At June 30, 2021, Radian Guaranty had statutory policyholders’ surplus of $596.0 million. This balance includes a $275.6 million benefit from U.S. Mortgage Guaranty Tax and Loss Bonds issued by the U.S. Department of the Treasury, which mortgage guaranty insurers such as Radian Guaranty may purchase in order to be eligible for a tax deduction, subject to certain limitations, related to amounts required to be set aside in statutory contingency reserves. See Note 16 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, “Overview—COVID-19 Impacts” and “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our 2020 Form 10-K for more information about these bonds and the risks associated with potential corporate tax rate increases, our statutory and PMIERs requirements and the potential effects of increased defaults due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Radian Guaranty currently is an approved mortgage insurer under the PMIERs. Private mortgage insurers, including Radian Guaranty, are required to comply with the PMIERs to remain approved insurers of loans purchased by the GSEs. At June 30, 2021, Radian Guaranty’s Available Assets under the PMIERs financial requirements totaled approximately $5.0 billion, resulting in a PMIERs Cushion of $1.9 billion, or 58%, over its Minimum Required Assets. Those amounts compare to Available Assets and a PMIERs cushion of $4.7 billion and $1.3 billion, respectively, at December 31, 2020.
The primary driver of the increase in Radian Guaranty’s PMIERs Cushion during the six months ended June 30, 2021 is the increase in Available Assets, reflecting positive cash flows from operating activities, combined with a decrease in Minimum Required Assets. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, Radian Guaranty’s Minimum Required Assets decreased primarily as a result of a decrease in the number of primary loans in default and an overall decline in IIF. Radian Guaranty’s Minimum Required Assets include a benefit as a result of reinsurance agreements, including the addition of the Eagle Re 2021-1 Ltd. reinsurance agreement in April 2021. See Note 8 of Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on our reinsurance agreements.
Our PMIERs Cushion at June 30, 2021, also includes a benefit from the application of the Disaster Related Capital Charge that has reduced the total amount of Minimum Required Assets that Radian Guaranty otherwise would have been required to hold against pandemic-related defaults by approximately $435 million as of June 30, 2021, taking into consideration our risk distribution structures in effect as of that date. We expect that application of the Disaster Related Capital Charge will continue to materially reduce Radian Guaranty’s PMIERs Minimum Required Assets, but will diminish over time.
Notwithstanding the continued application of the Disaster Related Capital Charge, the total amount of Minimum Required Assets we may be required to hold against defaulted loans will increase over time, because the 0.30 multiplier is applied to a higher base factor for the defaulting loans (including those in forbearance) as they age, with increases taking place upon four, six and 12 missed monthly payments. Additionally, given the lack of an expiration date under the CARES Act, it is difficult to estimate how long the GSEs may continue to offer COVID-19 forbearance programs for new defaults. It is also difficult to assess how long the GSEs may continue to apply the COVID-19 Amendment to loans in a COVID-19 related forbearance program. As described above, the COVID-19 Crisis Period expired March 31, 2021. See “Item 1. Business—Regulation—Federal Regulation—GSE Requirements” in our 2020 Form 10-K for more information about the Disaster Related Capital Charge, and for further information, including on the expiration of the COVID-19 Crisis Period, see “Overview—Legislative and Regulatory Developments—COVID-19 Amendment to PMIERs.”
Even though they hold assets in excess of the minimum statutory capital thresholds and PMIERs financial requirements, the ability of Radian’s mortgage insurance subsidiaries to pay dividends on their common stock is restricted by certain provisions of the insurance laws of Pennsylvania, their state of domicile. In light of Radian Guaranty’s negative unassigned surplus related to operating losses in prior periods, the ongoing need to set aside contingency reserves, and the current ongoing economic uncertainty related to the COVID-19 pandemic, which increased losses in 2020 and could cause losses in future periods, we do not anticipate that Radian Guaranty will be permitted under applicable insurance laws to pay dividends or other distributions for the foreseeable future without prior approval from the Pennsylvania Insurance Department. Under Pennsylvania’s insurance laws, an insurer must obtain the Pennsylvania Insurance Department’s approval to pay an Extraordinary Distribution. Radian Guaranty sought and received such approval to return capital by paying Extraordinary Distributions to Radian Group in 2019 and 2018. See Note 16 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2020 Form 10-K for additional information on our Extraordinary Distributions, statutory dividend restrictions and contingency reserve requirements.
Radian Guaranty and Radian Reinsurance are both members of the FHLB. As members, they may borrow from the FHLB, subject to certain conditions, which include requirements to post collateral and to maintain a minimum investment in FHLB stock. Advances from the FHLB may be used to provide low-cost, supplemental liquidity for various purposes, including to fund incremental investments. Radian’s current strategy includes using FHLB advances as financing for general cash management purposes and for purchases of additional investment securities that have similar durations, for the purpose of generating additional earnings from our investment securities portfolio with limited incremental risk. As of June 30, 2021, there
60

Table of Contents Glossary Part I. Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

were $154.0 million of FHLB advances outstanding. See Note 12 of Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
homegenius
As of June 30, 2021, our homegenius segment maintained cash and liquid investments totaling $69.6 million, primarily held by Radian Title Insurance.
Title insurance companies, including Radian Title Insurance, are subject to comprehensive state regulations, including minimum net worth requirements. Radian Title Insurance was in compliance with all of its minimum net worth requirements at June 30, 2021. In the event the cash flows from operations of the homegenius segment are not adequate to fund all of its needs, including the regulatory capital needs of Radian Title Insurance, Radian Group may provide additional funds to the homegenius segment in the form of an intercompany note or other capital contribution, and if needed for Radian Title Insurance, subject to the approval of the Ohio Department of Insurance. Additional capital support may also be required for potential investments in new business initiatives to support our strategy of growing our businesses.
Liquidity levels may fluctuate depending on the levels and contractual timing of our invoicing and the payment practices of our homegenius clients, in combination with the timing of our homegenius segment’s payments for employee compensation and to external vendors. The amount, if any, and timing of the homegenius segment’s dividend paying capacity will depend primarily on the amount of excess cash flow generated by the segment.
Ratings
Radian Group, Radian Guaranty, Radian Reinsurance and Radian Title Insurance have been assigned the ratings set forth in the chart below.

Critical Accounting Estimates
As of the filing date of this report, there were no significant changes in our critical accounting estimates from those discussed in our 2020 Form 10-K. See Note 2 of Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for accounting pronouncements issued but not yet adopted that may impact the Company’s consolidated financial position, earnings, cash flows or disclosures.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Market risk represents the potential for loss due to adverse changes in the value of financial instruments as a result of changes in market conditions. Examples of market risk include changes in interest rates, credit spreads, foreign currency exchange rates and equity prices. We regularly analyze our exposure to interest-rate risk and credit-spread risk and have determined that the fair value of our investments is materially exposed to changes in both interest rates and credit s preads. See “Item 1A. Risk Factors—Our success depends, in part, on our ability to manage risks in our investment portfolio” in our 2020 Form 10-K.
Our market risk exposures at June 30, 2021 have not materially changed from those identified in our 2020
