“Rithm had another terrific quarter in Q3 with the entire business demonstrating both operational resilience and earnings durability, which are increasingly the hallmarks of our well-balanced model,” Rithm Capital Chairman, CEO and President Michael Nierenberg said. “Our core businesses are consistently creating value for shareholders through earnings, which is either distributed as dividends or reinvested back into compounding our growth, diversifying earnings and positioning the business for future success to benefit our shareholders and LPs alike.”
