LendInvest Completes Seventh Securitisation With £310 Million Pool of UK Prime Mortgages
LendInvest plc (LSE: LINV)("LendInvest" or the "Company"), the UK's leading alternative provider of property finance and the parent company of LendInvest BTL Limited and LendInvest Loans Limited, today announces the successful completion of its seventh Residential Mortgage-Backed Securitisation (RMBS) under its 'Mortimer' programme.
The £310.6 million over-subscribed and upsized transaction, "Mortimer 2025-1 Plc," comprised 92.43% UK prime Buy-to-Let (BTL) and 7.57% Owner-Occupied mortgage loans originated by its Mortgages division.
This transaction marks LendInvest's seventh issuance under the Mortimer shelf, having now issued every year since 2019. All 1,208 loans were performing at the cut-off date, validating the Company's disciplined underwriting approach.
The deal was oversubscribed across all tranches, demonstrating robust investor confidence in LendInvest-originated collateral, even in challenging market conditions. The senior note received AAA ratings from Fitch and DBRS, respectively, for 89.44% of the loan pool and was priced at a tight spread of 81bps over SONIA - LendInvest's second-best price for securitised RMBS assets.
Strategic Funding Diversification
This announcement comes as LendInvest concurrently launches a new 5-year Retail-Eligible Bond, with a fixed coupon value of 8.25%, which will be listed on the London Stock Exchange's Order Book for Retail Bonds.
This is the fifth such Bond LendInvest has launched under its third EMTN programme, with matured bonds having been repaid successfully in full and on time. It marks another strategic step in diversifying the Company's funding structures, expanding its capital base, and widening investors' access to these types of notes.
With the completion of Mortimer 2025-1 Plc, LendInvest's total Funds under Management (FuM) now exceeds £5.3 billion with Assets under Management (AuM) standing at £3.45 billion.
To date, LendInvest has lent over £8 billion in property finance, supporting property investors and homeowners across the UK in securing competitive finance solutions and realising their ambitions. The business's current origination run-rate is now operating at a level that is approximately 20-25% higher than the run-rate achieved in the corresponding period last year, demonstrating momentum as it enters H2 2026.
Rod Lockhart, Chief Executive Officer of LendInvest, commented:
"I am delighted to announce the completion of our seventh successful securitisation. Achieving a highly competitive spread of 81bps over SONIA for an upsized deal in the current market is a powerful testament to investors' deep trust in the quality of the assets we originate and our robust, tech-enabled platform.
"This transaction is particularly notable as it was our first trade with a pre-fund structure, accelerating our growth strategy into the coming year and further unlocking capacity to write new business across our BTL and Owner-Occupied divisions. Together with our continued success in diversifying funding sources, such as our 8.25% Bond, this is a clear sign that LendInvest is positioned strongly for future growth."
Market Confidence
LendInvest's RMBS programme provides institutional investors with secured exposure to UK property assets, generating steady monthly income from a diverse pool of high-quality mortgage loans.
Each RMBS adheres to strict regulatory standards, including risk retention and detailed loan disclosure, ensuring a clear alignment of interests between LendInvest and its investors. By vertically retaining 5% of each transaction, LendInvest reinforces its commitment to loan quality and to delivering dependable, income-generating investments.
Critically, the transaction generated proceeds of approximately £310 million, of which £270 million will be used to pay down existing borrowings, immediately generates liquidity and headroom for future growth, in addition to approximately £5.5 million of unrestricted cash (from a combination of excess spread and reserve releases) which can be reinvested in the broader group, used to pay down debt, or support cash buffers in keeping with the group's continued fortification of its balance sheet.
Lloyds acted as Sole Arranger with Société Générale, BNP Paribas and HSBC as Joint Lead Managers on Mortimer 2025-1 Plc.
Hugo Davies, LendInvest Chief Capital Officer & MD, Mortgages Division, said:
"Successfully launching both our seventh securitisation and a new Retail Bond in short order demonstrates the strength of our funding engine and the trust institutional investors place in our platform.
"Following these successful funding initiatives, the Mortgages Division is positioned to deliver origination volumes that are anticipated to be significantly ahead of the previous year."
