MDCM news (from yesterday after-bell), looks like another case of "who cares about profits?"... ==================== (REUTERS) Mortgage.com stock soars, reports Q2 loss Mortgage.com stock soars, reports Q2 loss PLANTATION, Fla., Aug 25 (Reuters) - Newly public online mortgage services provider Mortgage.com Inc. <MDCM.O>, which saw its stock soar more than 87 percent Wednesday, reported a second quarter loss, despite a 65 percent increase in revenue. Mortgage.com was the leading percent gainer on the Nasdaq Wednesday, rising 7-3/16 to a new high of 15-3/8. The previous high was 9-1/2 on Aug. 16. The company went public on Aug. 11 at an initial offering price of $8 per share. The company reported a second quarter loss of $8.6 million, or $1 per share diluted, on revenue of $14.3 million, compared with a loss of $763,000 or 14 cents per share, on revenues of $8.6 million a year-ago. The results were released after the market closed. Mortgage.com said it originated and closed 4,459 loans with a total principal amount of $848.2 million in the second quarter, compared with 2,673 loans with a total principal amount of $478.6 million during last year's comparable quarter. "The company's growth during a period of rising interest rates reflects Mortgage.com's unique business-to-business strategy and its focus on the home purchase-money financing market," Mortgage.com said in a statement. The company said 65 percent of its funded loan volume in the second quarter was related to purchase-money mortgages, which was considerably less sensitive to interest rate fluctuations than the refinance mortgage market.
