UWMC INVESTOR DEADLINE APPROACHING: Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP Reminds UWM Holdings (UWMC) Investors of Securities Class Action Lawsuit Deadline on October 12, 2026

Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP is investigating potential claims against UWM Holdings Corporation ("UWM" or the "Company") (NYSE: UWMC) and reminds investors of the October 12, 2026 deadline to seek the role of lead plaintiff in a federal securities class action that has been filed against the Company.

The complaint alleges that the Company and its executives violated federal securities laws by making false and/or misleading statements and/or failing to disclose that: (1) the Company had deviated from its traditional strategy of not hedging its mortgage servicing rights to take a major hedge position; (2) the Company over-hedged itself in anticipation of the Two Harbors transaction; (3) the Company's purported efforts to balance its risk in fact created an excess hedging risk; and (4) that, as a result of the foregoing, Defendants' positive statements about the Company's business, operations, and prospects were materially misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis.

On August 5, 2026, after the market closed, UWM reported second quarter fiscal year 2026 financial results, including a $603.2 million interest rate derivatives loss which contributed to a $451.9 million second-quarter net loss. Total equity also fell 43.6% year over year, reflecting the net loss and derivative-related charges.

Then, on August 6, 2026, at 10:30 AM EDT, the Company held an earnings call in connection with its second quarter 2026 financial results. During that call, Chief Executive Officer Mathew Ishbia ("Ishbia") disclosed "We were over-hedged, if you think of it that way, protecting against the Two Harbors transaction." Ishbia further stated "[w]e don't traditionally hedge our MSRs [Mortgage Servicing Rights]" but "when you're going through and acquiring a company like Two Harbors and a massive MSR book . . . it created a little more risk. So . . . we did put a hedge on to protect against that risk and then a lot of things happen[ed] . . . and then obviously, the Two Harbors transaction went away. And so a confluence of events that created a hedge loss."

On this news, shares of UWM fell $0.64 or 34.78% to close at $1.20 on August 6, 2026, thereby injuring investors.

Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP also encourages anyone with information regarding UWM's conduct to contact the firm, including whistleblowers, former employees, shareholders and others.
