Finance of America Reverse LLC Introduces HomeSafe Second Line of Credit Finance of America Reverse LLC announced the launch of HomeSafe Second Line of Credit, a new solution designed to give homeowners greater flexibility in how – and when – they access their home equity, without adding a new monthly expense or giving up a possibly low mortgage rate. Available in California beginning April 1, HomeSafe Second Line of Credit is the industry’s first second-lien reverse mortgage line of credit, allowing homeowners 55+ to draw funds over time, as needs arise, after an initial 25% draw at time of origination – while preserving their existing first mortgage and without taking on the new required monthly payments of a traditional HELOC. Many homeowners who have a low rate first mortgage are disinterested in accessing their home equity by refinancing into a higher-rate loan, but they are interested in tapping their home equity. Homeowners are also discouraged by traditional HELOCs requiring ongoing monthly payments, adding a new expense. HomeSafe Second Line of Credit removes both constraints. Homeowners can establish a line of credit that allows them to access cash as needed. HomeSafe Second Line of Credit gives homeowners the flexibility they need, whether planning ahead or navigating the unexpected. Across California, homeownership remains a defining pillar of financial security, particularly among homeowners 55+. Nearly three-quarters of Californians aged 65+ own their homes, and according to Zillow, mid-tier home values are approximately $775,000, among the highest in the nation. Many homeowners built substantial equity during the pandemic-era housing boom and are now locked into historically low mortgage rates. As a result, many are equity-rich but seeking more flexible ways to access liquidity without disrupting prior financial decisions. That demand is already evident: Second-lien equity withdrawals rose 22% year-over-year in First Quarter 2025, reaching the highest volume in 17 years. HomeSafe Second Line of Credit addresses this growing demand. As more homeowners look for liquidity without refinancing, demand for flexible second-lien solutions continues to rise. To help homeowners turn housing wealth into a more accessible financial resource, HomeSafe Second Line of Credit is designed to provide: Flexibility – After the minimum 25% draw required at origination, borrow only what you need, when you need it, over a 10-year draw period. Growth potential – offering a 1.5% growth rate on unused line of credit for the first 7 years. Mortgage rate preservation – no need to refinance or replace a lower-rate first lien loan.

New major risk - Revenue and earnings growth Earnings have declined by 26% per year over the past 5 years. This is considered a major risk. Ultimately, shareholders want to see a good return on their investment and that generally comes from sharing in the company's profits. If profits are declining over an extended period, then in most cases the share price will decline over time unless the company can turn around its fortunes. A trend of falling earnings can be very difficult to turn around. If the company is well already established it may also be a sign the company has matured and is in decline. In addition, if the company pays dividends it will also likely need to reduce or cut them, striking a dual blow to total shareholder returns. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Debt is not well covered by operating cash flow (currently running at an operating cash loss). Earnings have declined by 26% per year over the past 5 years. Minor Risk Share price has been volatile over the past 3 months (15% average weekly change). New Risk • May 13
New major risk - Financial position The company's debt is not well covered by operating cash flow. Currently running at an operating cash loss. This is considered a major risk. If the company's operating cash flows are too small relative to the size of their debt, it increases their balance sheet risk. The company has less cash from operations to cover its expenses from servicing large debt and it increases the risk of liquidity issues. It also extends the time it would take for the company to pay back the debt in full, meaning it may not be able to easily pay it all off in a distress scenario. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risk Debt is not well covered by operating cash flow (currently running at an operating cash loss).

New minor risk - Shareholder dilution The company's shareholders have been diluted in the past year. Increase in shares outstanding: 22% This is considered a minor risk. Shareholder dilution occurs when there is an increase in the number of shares on issue that is not proportionally distributed between all shareholders. Often due to the company raising equity capital or some options being converted into stock. All else being equal, if there are more shares outstanding then each existing share will be entitled to a lower proportion of the company's total earnings, thus reducing earnings per share (EPS). While dilution might not always result in lower EPS (like if the company is using the capital to fund an EPS accretive acquisition) in a lot cases it does, along with lower dividends per share and less voting power at shareholder meetings. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risk Share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months (16% average weekly change). Minor Risks Currently unprofitable and not forecast to become profitable next year (US$129m net loss next year). Shareholders have been diluted in the past year (22% increase in shares outstanding).

Finance of America Companies Inc. Expands Reach of Second Lien Reverse Mortgage to Allow More Homeowners 55 and Older to Access Home Equity Finance of America Companies Inc. announced the expanded launch of its HomeSafe Second loan so that more homeowners 55 and older have a tool to access their home equity without adding new monthly payments or changing the existing rate on their first mortgage. With the wider rollout across its direct-to-consumer and wholesale divisions, Finance of America will increase the availability of this second-lien reverse mortgage product to homeowners and originators. Home price appreciation means many U.S. homeowners have seen significant increases in their housing wealth in recent years, and while this is driving interest in HELOCs and other home equity products, many are unable to benefit from home equity gains for a variety of reasons. Selling the home and downsizing may not be feasible due to increased costs to purchase or rent. Refinancing and traditional home equity loans are less attractive options given higher interest rates. Moreover, qualifying for home equity products can be difficult with nearly half of applicants (46%) failing to qualify for a HELOC. For older homeowners, receiving home equity financing is even more challenging, with one-third of all senior refinancing applications denied due to income-based criteria. HomeSafe Second was intentionally developed to address these barriers and serve homeowners 55 and older in today's climate. The only second-lien reverse mortgage of its kind, HomeSafe Second allows eligible homeowners 55 and older to tap their home equity via a second mortgage without adding a new monthly mortgage payment. This fixed-rate, proprietary reverse loan does not impact the first lien mortgage, neither its balance nor its rate, and no monthly payments are required on this second lien. The borrower must continue to make payments in respect of its first lien mortgage along with property taxes and insurance. HomeSafe Second is currently available in California, Colorado, Connecticut, Florida, South Carolina, and Texas, with the goal of expanding to more states in the future. Additional information including product details and loan terms is available on the product section of the FAR website. Announcement • Oct 25

New minor risk - Share price stability The company's share price has been volatile over the past 3 months. It is more volatile than 75% of American stocks, typically moving 9.2% a week. This is considered a minor risk. Share price volatility indicates the stock is highly sensitive to market conditions or economic conditions rather than being sensitive to its own business performance, which may also be inconsistent. It also increases the risk of potential losses in the short term as the stock tends to have larger drops in price more frequently than other stocks. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risk Debt is not well covered by operating cash flow (8.3% operating cash flow to total debt). Minor Risks Share price has been volatile over the past 3 months (9.2% average weekly change). Shareholders have been diluted in the past year (22% increase in shares outstanding). New Risk • Sep 11
