OCWEN FINANCIAL ANNOUNCES PRELIMINARY OPERATING RESULTS

FOR FISCAL YEAR 2014

Atlanta, GA – (April 14, 2015) Ocwen Financial Corporation, (NYSE:OCN) (“Ocwen” or the “Company”), a leading financial services holding company, today reported a preliminary net loss of $(546.0) million, or $(4.18) per share, for the year ended December 31, 2014 compared to net income of $310.4 million, or $2.13 per share, for the year ended December 31, 2013. Ocwen generated preliminary revenue of $2.1 billion, up 4% compared to $2.0 billion in the prior year. Preliminary income from operations was $76.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2014.

Preliminary pre-tax loss for 2014 was $(443.2) million, compared to $352.5 million pre-tax income in 2013. Preliminary pre-tax income on a normalized basis for 2014 was $284.9 million, compared to the $550.4 million normalized pre-tax income in 2013. During 2014, Ocwen incurred a total of $728.1 million in preliminary normalized expenses. Normalization items in 2014 include $420.2 million of goodwill impairment, $186.1 million of legal and settlement expenses primarily related to the settlement with the New York Department of Financial Services, $72.3 million for MSR-related fair value changes and $49.5 million of transition and other items. The preliminary normalized results for 2014 were impacted by and include $127.3 million of servicer expenses and uncollectible advances along with $39.4 million in regulatory monitoring costs. In addition, our preliminary net loss results include a charge to record an approximately $77 million valuation allowance against our remaining deferred tax asset.

“I am encouraged by the progress Ocwen has made so far in 2015. We currently expect to be profitable in 2015 and meet all of our ongoing financial and servicing obligations. In addition to generating substantial cash flow from pending asset sales that have already been announced so far this year, we expect our historical track record of generating substantial cash flow from operations to continue in 2015 and beyond. To accomplish our objectives we must, among other things, extend our $1.8 billion advance receivable facility that begins amortizing in October 2015, continue meeting our regulatory requirements, execute on our plan to reduce our GSE servicing exposure, continue to comply with our debt covenants and maintain our current servicer ratings. We have already significantly advanced our Agency MSR sale strategy at attractive prices, entered into an amendment with Home Loan Servicing Solutions that provides more stability for the Company and reduced our 2015 refinancing risk,” commented Ron Faris, President and C.E.O. of Ocwen. “We have also continued to make progress and improvements in our risk and compliance management systems, a critical focus of our management team and employees. We are optimistic that the investments we have made and are making in these areas reduce significantly the substantial risks associated with non-compliance with laws and regulations and improves our service to homeowners which will ultimately result in better overall returns to our shareholders.”

The financial results and other financial data presented in this press release are preliminary, based upon the Company’s estimates and subject to completion of the Company’s final financial closing procedures. Moreover, this data has been prepared on the basis of currently available information. The Company’s independent auditor has not audited or reviewed, and does not express an opinion with respect to, this data. This data does not constitute a comprehensive statement of the Company’s financial results for the year ended December 31, 2014, and the Company’s final results could differ materially from these preliminary results. In particular, the preliminary financial results presented in this press release incorporate the impact of the Company fully reserving for its deferred tax asset in order to present a conservative view of Ocwen’s results and financial position as the Company continues to prepare and evaluate information related to its ability to operate as a going concern and to provide such information to its auditor for the purposes of its audit of the Company’s financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2014. The Company currently does not have an estimate of when its 2014 financial statements will be finalized.

Forward Looking Statements

This press release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Forward-looking statements by their nature address matters that are, to different degrees, uncertain. Forward-looking statements involve a number of assumptions, risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially.

Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those suggested by the forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, the following: adverse effects on our business as a result of recent regulatory settlements; reactions to the announcement of such settlements by key counterparties; increased regulatory scrutiny and media attention, due to rumors or otherwise; uncertainty related to claims, litigation and investigations brought by government agencies and private parties regarding our servicing, foreclosure, modification and other practices; any adverse developments in existing legal proceedings or the initiation of new legal proceedings; our ability to effectively manage our regulatory and contractual compliance obligations; our ability to execute on our strategy to reduce the size of our Agency servicing portfolio; the adequacy of our financial resources, including our sources of liquidity and ability to fund and recover advances, repay borrowings and comply with debt covenants; our servicer and credit ratings as well as other actions from various rating agencies, including the impact of recent downgrades of our servicer and credit ratings; volatility in our stock price; the characteristics of our servicing portfolio, including prepayment speeds along with delinquency and advance rates; our ability to contain and reduce our operating costs; our ability to successfully modify delinquent loans, manage foreclosures and sell foreclosed properties; uncertainty related to legislation, regulations, regulatory agency actions, government programs and policies, industry initiatives and evolving best servicing practices; as well as other risks detailed in Ocwen’s reports and filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), including its annual report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2013 (filed with the SEC on 08/18/14) and its quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2014 (filed with the SEC on 10/31/14). Anyone wishing to understand Ocwen’s business should review its SEC filings. Ocwen’s forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made and, except for our ongoing obligations under the U.S. federal securities laws, we undertake no obligation to update or revise forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release contains certain non-GAAP financial measures, such as our references to “normalized pre-tax income.” We believe these non-GAAP financial measures provide a useful supplement to discussions and analysis of our financial condition. We also believe these non-GAAP financial measures provide an alternative way to view certain aspects of our business that is instructive. Non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative for, Ocwen’s reported results under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Other companies may use non-GAAP financial measures with the same or similar titles that are calculated differently to our non-GAAP financial measures. As a result, comparability may be limited. Further information regarding these measures may be found on Ocwen’s website.
