Access to the most competitive GSE and brokered debt capital

In the third quarter of 2025, their GSE debt financing volumes increased by 64% compared to Q3 2024, led by a 137% increase in lending volumes with Freddie Mac. This execution helped drive their year-to-date GSE market share to 10.8%, an increase of 40 basis points over the same period in 2024.

Personalized, boutique-style service backed by a national platform

You get the focused attention of a smaller firm, but with the reach of a national operation. Chairman and CEO Willy Walker attributes strong performance to the combination of exceptional people, technology, and data. The firm's ability to grow revenues by 16% in Q3 2025 while increasing net income by 16% suggests operational efficiency is supporting service quality.

Walker & Dunlop, Inc. (WD) - Canvas Business Model: Cost Structure

You're looking at the core costs that keep Walker & Dunlop, Inc. running, which are heavily tied to its transactional nature. Since so much of the business is commission-driven, personnel costs naturally dominate the expense structure. Here's a look at the numbers we have for 2025 so far.

High personnel expenses due to commission-based compensation.

Compensation is your biggest variable cost here. When transaction volume surges, as it did in Q3 2025 with volume hitting $\mathbf{\$15.5}$ billion, personnel costs follow right behind due to those commission structures. The increase in net income in Q3 2025 was partly offset by these rising personnel expenses, which were principally the result of higher commissions from increased loan origination and debt brokerage fees. To give you a sense of scale, personnel expenses were $\mathbf{\$116.441}$ million in Q2 2025, up $\mathbf{26\%}$ year-over-year, and $\mathbf{\$86.466}$ million in Q1 2025, up $\mathbf{9\%}$ year-over-year. This shows how quickly compensation scales with deal flow.

General operating expenses for a national office footprint.

Running offices across every major U.S. market means you have fixed overhead, even if transaction volume dips. While specific General and Administrative (G&A) figures for Q3 2025 aren't isolated here, we know that total expenses for Walker & Dunlop, Inc. grew $\mathbf{14\%}$ year-over-year in Q3 2025, even as revenues grew $\mathbf{16\%}$ to $\mathbf{\$337.7}$ million. This tight control over non-personnel costs helps drive operating margin expansion when revenue is strong. The company has over $\mathbf{1,400}$ employees across these markets, which necessitates significant spending on facilities, marketing, and administrative support.

Technology investment and development costs.

Walker & Dunlop, Inc. views technology as a key resource, not just a cost center, but it still requires capital outlay. They are actively investing in client-facing technology. For instance, Client Navigator, their digital portal, has over $\mathbf{2,700}$ active clients monitoring their assets. Furthermore, technology-enabled businesses are showing results; appraise revenues were up $\mathbf{21\%}$ in Q3 2025. This investment is designed to generate market share gains, which is a strategic cost that should translate into future revenue growth.

Capital reserves for loan repurchases and indemnification obligations.

This is a risk-management cost inherent in their agency lending business. You have to set aside capital for potential future problems on loans they originate or service. As of September 30, 2025, the collateral-based reserves set aside for defaulted loans stood at $\mathbf{\$9.4}$ million. This is up from $\mathbf{\$6.5}$ million at the end of 2024. Separately, management noted an expected use of approximately $\mathbf{\$20}$ million of capital to collateralize an indemnification agreement with Freddie Mac, with associated credit losses anticipated in the fourth quarter of 2025. Also, as of March 31, 2025, the aggregate balance of assets not yet repurchased under forbearance agreements was $\mathbf{\$46.1}$ million, which requires a future cash outlay.

Interest expense on corporate debt and warehouse lines.

The company carries corporate debt and uses warehouse lines to fund its operations, meaning interest expense is a recurring, non-personnel cost. In Q2 2025, the reported Interest expense on corporate debt was $\mathbf{\$4,468}$ thousand (or $\mathbf{\$4.47}$ million). This was an improvement, as it was lower than the $\mathbf{\$5,299}$ thousand (or $\mathbf{\$5.30}$ million) recorded in Q2 2024. This expense is allocated across segments based on their proportional use of that corporate debt.

Here is a quick look at some of the key financial metrics that frame these costs:

Metric	Period	Amount (USD)
Total Revenues	Q3 2025	$337.7 million
Personnel Expense (Approximate Scale)	Q2 2025	$116.441 million
Interest Expense on Corporate Debt	Q2 2025	$4.468 million
Collateral-Based Reserves on Defaulted Loans	September 30, 2025	$9.4 million
Expected Indemnification Collateral Use	Q4 2025 Estimate	$20 million

The reliance on a large, compensated workforce and the need to maintain capital reserves for contingent liabilities are the defining features of Walker & Dunlop, Inc.'s cost structure. You see the benefit when origination fees surge, but you also see the pressure when deal flow slows.

Walker & Dunlop, Inc. (WD) - Canvas Business Model: Revenue Streams

You're looking at the core ways Walker & Dunlop, Inc. brings in money, which is heavily tied to transaction volume and the size of its managed portfolio. As of late 2025, the revenue streams are clearly segmented across execution, management, and advisory services.

Origination fees from debt financing remain a primary driver, directly linked to the total transaction volume. For the Year-to-Date (YTD) 2025 period, total revenues reached $894.3 million. Loan origination fees specifically saw strong growth, increasing 32% year-over-year in the third quarter of 2025, showing the success of their lending activity.

The servicing portfolio provides a stable, recurring stream. As of September 30, 2025, this portfolio stood at $139.3 billion. Servicing fees from this portfolio grew 4% year-over-year in the third quarter, demonstrating the value of maintaining these long-term relationships.

Property sales and brokerage commissions are another key component. Investment sales volume in the third quarter of 2025 was $4.7 billion, marking a 30% year-over-year increase. Reflecting this, property sales broker fees grew by 37% in the same quarter.

Walker & Dunlop, Inc. also generates revenue through investment management fees. The total Assets Under Management (AUM) for these activities was $18.5 billion as of the third quarter of 2025. To be fair, investment management fees decreased year-to-date, largely due to lower expected asset dispositions within the Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) funds.

Finally, advisory services contribute through fees for appraisal, valuation, and other advisory services. Appraise revenues specifically showed a 21% increase in the third quarter of 2025, pointing to growth in these technology-enabled businesses.

Here's a quick look at the key financial metrics underpinning these revenue streams as of Q3 2025:

Revenue Stream Component	Metric/Value	Period/Date
Total YTD Revenues	$894.3 million	YTD 2025
Servicing Portfolio Size	$139.3 billion	As of September 30, 2025
Assets Under Management (AUM)	$18.5 billion	As of Q3 2025
Investment Sales Volume	$4.7 billion	Q3 2025
Loan Origination Fees Growth	32% increase	Q3 2025 vs. prior year
Property Sales Broker Fees Growth	37% increase	Q3 2025 vs. prior year
Appraise Revenues Growth	21% increase	Q3 2025 vs. prior year

The growth in transaction volume, which hit $15.5 billion in Q3 2025 alone, directly fuels the fee-based income. Also, the servicing portfolio growth added $5.3 billion of net loans over the past 12 months.

You can see the diversification in the sources of income:

• Origination fees from debt financing.
• Recurring servicing fees.
• Commissions from property sales.
• Fees from managing $18.5 billion in assets.
• Advisory fees from appraisal and valuation services.
