It currently offers a broad suite of consumer credit products to customers, ranging from home loans to unsecured personal loans. Its hybrid originate-to-sell and marketplace business model allows loanDepot to generate significant loan volume with less capital than traditional market participants.

In the filing the company described its finances as follows:

Our business has scaled rapidly and has been funded primarily by internally generated profits from operations. For the twelve months ended June 30, 2015, we originated $22.1 billion of loans, representing year-over-year growth of 125% relative to the twelve months ended June 30, 2014. Our growth has been supported by our balance-sheet light model, which utilizes diverse funding sources, our ability to provide what we believe is a superior customer experience and our strategic acquisitions. For the year ended December 31, 2014, we originated $13.2 billion of loans and recorded total net revenues of $544.5 million, Adjusted EBITDA of $50.2 million, Adjusted Net Income of $17.6 million (giving effect to net income as if we were taxed as a C-Corp) and net income of $21.7 million. For the six months ended June 30, 2015, we originated $14.3 billion of loans and recorded total net revenues of $489.6 million, Adjusted EBITDA of $101.1 million, Adjusted Net Income of $51.7 million (giving effect to net income as if we were taxed as a C-Corp) and net income of $69.2 million.
