Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition
 
On August 8, 2016, Altisource Asset Management Corporation (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2016 (the “Press Release”). A copy of the Press Release was furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to the original Form 8-K Report filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 8, 2016.

Subsequent to issuance of the Press Release, the Company discovered that, although it correctly reported net loss attributable to stockholders and weighted average common stock outstanding for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, it had incorrectly disclosed the loss per share of common stock for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016. The Company originally reported loss per share of common stock, both basic and diluted, in the Press Release for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 of $0.23 and $0.74, respectively. Upon correcting the error, the Company’s loss per share of common stock, both basic and diluted, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 was $0.74 and $1.22, respectively, which represents an increase in loss of $0.51 and $0.49, respectively, for such periods. Attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 is an amended copy of the Company's Press Release with the corrected loss per share of common stock, both basic and diluted, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016.

All other information set forth in the Press Release, including the net (loss) income attributable to stockholders and weighted average common stock outstanding for all such periods, remains correct and unchanged; therefore, no other changes were made to the Press Release. The Company also expects to file an amended Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q/A for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2016 to reflect these changes.

The information in this Item 2.02, including the information in Exhibit 99.1, is furnished solely pursuant to Item 2.02 of this Form 8-K/A.  Consequently, it is not deemed “filed” for the purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that Section.  It may only be incorporated by reference in another filing under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or Securities Act of 1933 if such subsequent filing specifically references this Item 2.02 of this Form 8-K/A.

Altisource Asset Management Corporation Reports Second Quarter 2016 Results

CHRISTIANSTED, U.S. Virgin Islands, August 8, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) - Altisource Asset Management Corporation (“AAMC” or the “Company”) (NYSE MKT: AAMC) today reported financial and operating results for the second quarter of 2016.

Recent Developments and Second Quarter 2016 Highlights

Increased single-family rental (“SFR”) portfolio of Altisource Residential Corporation (“Residential”) during the quarter by 13% over the prior quarter to 3,977 homes, including 3,010 rented properties, 273 listed and ready for rent and 694 properties under leasehold renovation and unit turn.
Grew Residential's stabilized rentals to 3,112 properties with 97% leased.
Facilitated Residential’s completed sale of 895 non-performing loans (“NPLs”) in June 2016 with an unpaid principal balance (“UPB”) of $213.1 million, or approximately 17% of the total remaining UPB in Residential’s loan portfolio.
Managed Residential’s sale of an aggregate of 910 real estate owned (“REO”) properties, representing an increase of 33% over the 686 REO properties sold by Residential in the first quarter of 2016.
Achieved average rent increases of approximately 6% for Residential on lease renewals.
Moved substantially all of Residential's remaining Ocwen-serviced NPLs away from Ocwen as of August 1, 2016.
Completed $4.2 million of AAMC stock buybacks, bringing total buybacks under AAMC’s repurchase program to $255.6 million.
Negotiated a non-binding letter of intent for Residential to purchase between 4,000 and 4,500 SFR properties from an unrelated third party, subject to due diligence, negotiation of definitive transaction documents, financing arrangements and other factors.

“We are continuing to build Residential’s single-family rental business and sell its NPLs and non-rental REO properties in order to generate liquidity for attractive acquisitions and potential stock repurchases,” stated Chief Executive Officer George Ellison. “We believe these activities, as well as our ongoing efforts to improve Residential’s operational efficiencies, should continue to better position Residential to provide long-term value to its stockholders, which should benefit AAMC’s financial performance and prospects over time.”

Second Quarter 2016 Financial Results

Net loss attributable to stockholders for the second quarter of 2016 was $1.3 million, or $0.74 per diluted share, compared to net income attributable to stockholders of $0.7 million, or $0.27 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2015. Net loss attributable to stockholders for the six months ended June 30, 2016 was $2.2 million, or $1.22 per diluted share, compared to net income attributable to stockholders of $7.6 million, or $2.77 per diluted share, for the six months ended June 30, 2015.

Forward-looking Statements

This press release contains forward-looking statements that involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Those forward-looking statements include all statements that are not historical fact, including statements about management’s beliefs and expectations. Forward-looking statements are based on management’s beliefs as well as assumptions made by and information currently available to management. Because such statements are based on expectations as to future economic performance and are not statements of historical fact, actual results may differ materially from those projected. Residential undertakes no obligation to update any forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. The risks and uncertainties to which forward-looking statements are subject include, but are not limited to: AAMC’s ability to implement its business plan; AAMC's ability to leverage strategic relationships on an efficient and cost-effective basis; AAMC's and Residential's ability to compete; Residential’s ability to implement its business plan; general economic and market conditions; governmental regulations, taxes and policies; AAMC's ability to generate adequate and timely sources of liquidity and financing for Residential; Residential’s ability to sell residential mortgage assets on favorable terms; AAMC's ability to identify and acquire assets for Residential’s portfolio; Residential’s ability to complete potential transactions in accordance with anticipated terms and on a timely basis or at all; Altisource Portfolio Solutions’ ability to effectively perform its obligations under various agreements with Residential; and other risks and uncertainties detailed in the “Risk Factors” and other sections described from time to time in the Company’s current and future filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The foregoing list of factors should not be construed as exhaustive.

The statements made in this press release are current as of the date of this press release only. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements or any other information contained herein, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.






Presented below are the Company's consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 and the consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015. On January 1, 2016, the Company adopted revised accounting guidance related to consolidation. As a result, the Company no longer consolidates the financial information of Residential in its consolidated financial statements effective January 1, 2016. Due to the significance of Residential's consolidated financial statements to the Company's historical consolidated financial statements in periods prior to January 1, 2016, the Company's consolidated financial statements have limited comparability with the Company's consolidated financial statements in prior periods.
