Financial Performance Net interest income was $46.6 million for the third quarter of 2005, compared to $61.7 million for the third quarter of 2004 and $50.1 million for the second quarter of 2005. Net interest margin was 3.0% for the third quarter of 2005 compared to 4.6% for the third quarter of 2004 and 3.3% for the second quarter of 2005.

Net interest margin after provision for mortgage loan losses was 1.8% for the third quarter of 2005, compared to 3.5% for the third quarter of 2004 and 2.4% for the second quarter of 2005. Excluding the reserve of $6.8 million related to Hurricane Katrina, Saxon's net interest margin after provision for mortgage loan losses for the third quarter 2005 would have been 2.2%.

At September 30, 2005, Saxon recognized an unrealized hedge gain of approximately $25.2 million (pre-tax pre-tax adj → anterior al impuesto pre-tax adj → avant impôt(s) pre-tax adj → al lordo d'imposta ), which is reflected as a component of shareholder's equity in accumulated other comprehensive income In 1997 the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued a Statement on Financial Accounting Standards entitled “Comprehensive Income”.

Total delinquencies (excluding Hurricane Katrina) increased $53 million from the second quarter of 2005 to the third quarter of 2005.

During the quarter, the Company recorded a $3.4 million temporary impairment to mortgage servicing rights, $0.4 million of which was related to Hurricane Katrina and the remainder of which was related to faster prepayment speeds and lower market valuation on older third party servicing portfolios. Saxon's third party servicing portfolio grew 8.6% to $20.2 billion at September 30, 2005, compared to $18.6 billion at June 30, 2005. During the third quarter 2005, Saxon purchased servicing rights on $4.1 billion in mortgage loan pools. Total net revenues for the third quarter of 2005 were $46.3 million, compared to $55.6 million for the third quarter of 2004 and $54.5 million for the second quarter of 2005. Total expenses, which include payroll payroll a list of employees, their salary rates, tax deductions, amounts paid, payroll tax, long service leave entitlements. and related expenses, general and administrative expenses and other expenses, were $41.1 million for the third quarter of 2005, compared to $36.3 million for the third quarter of 2004 and $32.8 million for the second quarter of 2005. Total expenses increased in the third quarter 2005 from third quarter of 2004 due to $1.9 million of severance The act of dividing, or the state of being divided. The term severance has unique meanings in different branches of the law. Courts use the term in both civil and criminal litigation in two ways: first, when dividing a lawsuit into two or more parts, and second, when expense related to the departure of the Executive Vice President Capital Markets and Senior Vice President and Corporate Strategies Director, and an increase in accounting, consulting/outside services, and lease expenses. Total expenses increased in the third quarter 2005 from the second quarter of 2005 due to an increase in severance (as mentioned above), salary, lease and retail marketing expenses. In addition, the amount of FAS 91expenses deferred on a per loan basis was reduced in the third quarter 2005 by $1.2 million due to the impact of a lower retail cost structure. Cost to service was 17 basis points for the third quarter of 2005, compared to 20 basis points for the third quarter of 2004, and a 17 basis points cost in the second quarter of 2005. Total net cost to produce was 2.96% of total loan production for the third quarter of 2005, compared to 2.79% for the third quarter of 2004 and 2.84% for the second quarter of 2005. The increase in net cost to produce from the second quarter 2005 to the third quarter 2005 is primarily attributed to an increase in correspondent A bank, Securities firm, or other financial institution that regularly renders services for another in an area or market to which the other party lacks direct access.

Cost to service and total net cost to produce are measures defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission as "non-GAAP financial measures."

========== ==========
The estimated REIT taxable income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005 set forth in the table above is an estimate only and is subject to change until the Company files its 2005 REIT federal tax returns. To maintain the status as a REIT, Saxon is required to distribute at least 90% of its REIT taxable income each year to its shareholders. REIT taxable income is calculated under consolidated net income pursuant to GAAP. Saxon expects that consolidated GAAP net income may differ from REIT taxable income for many reasons, including the following: --the provision for loan loss expense recognized for GAAP purposes is based upon the estimate of probable PROBABLE. That which has the appearance of truth; that which appears to be founded in reason. loan losses inherent in our current portfolio of loans held for investment, for which the Company has not yet recorded a charge-off Eliminate or write off. The term charge-off is used to describe the process of removing from the records of a company something that was once regarded as an asset but has subsequently become worthless. (tax accounting rules allow a deduction deduction, in logic, form of inference such that the conclusion must be true if the premises are true. For example, if we know that all men have two legs and that John is a man, it is then logical to deduce that John has two legs. for loan losses only in the period when a charge-off occurs); --there are several differences between GAAP and tax methodologies for capitalization capitalization n. 1) the act of counting anticipated earnings and expenses as capital assets (property, equipment, fixtures) for accounting purposes. 2) the amount of anticipated net earnings which hypothetically can be used for conversion into capital assets. of origination expenses; and --income of a taxable REIT subsidiary is generally included in the REIT's earnings for consolidated GAAP purposes, but is not recognized in REIT taxable income. Saxon expects that its REIT taxable income will continue to differ from GAAP consolidated income, particularly during the period in which the Company is building its mortgage loan portfolio.

This is common because most of the properties up for sale at these auctions are worth less than the total amount owed to the bank: the minimum bid in most delinquencies). Saxon's total delinquent and seriously delinquent loans continue to trend in line with historical seasonal data and include approximately $32.2 million of loans impacted by Hurricane Katrina. The Company increased its allowance for loan losses by $6.8 million for the potential impact of Hurricane Katrina.

By federal court order, AT&T divested itself on January 1, 1984 of its 23 operating companies, which became known as the Regional Bell Operating Companies (RBOCs). of several retail branches, and the intense pricing competition existing in the marketplace throughout the first nine months of 2005. Loan Servicing Loan servicing is the process by which a mortgage bank or subservicing firm collects the timely payment of interest and principal from borrowers. The level of service varies depending on the type loan and the terms negotiated between the firm and the investor seeking their services. Saxon's third party servicing portfolio was $20.2 billion at September 30, 2005, an increase of 92% from September 30, 2004, and an increase of 8% from June 30, 2005, resulting from the purchase of additional third party servicing rights. During the third quarter of 2005, Saxon purchased third party servicing rights to service approximately $4.1 billion of mortgage loans, which have annual servicing fees of approximately 50 basis points. Liquidity At September 30, 2005, Saxon had $1.7 billion in committed facilities Committed Facility A credit facility whereby terms and conditions are clearly defined by the lending institution and imposed upon the borrowing company. Notes: In committed facilities, the borrowing companies must meet specific requirements set forth by the lending and $154.0 million in working capital, compared to $1.6 billion in committed facilities and $333.0 million in working capital at September 30, 2004. It is common business practice to define working capital as current assets Current Assets Appearing on a company's balance sheet, it represents cash, accounts receivable, inventory, marketable securities, prepaid expenses, and other assets that can be converted to cash within one year. less current liabilities Current Liabilities Usually appearing on a company's balance sheet, it represents the amount owed for interest, accounts payable, short-term loans, expenses incurred but unpaid, and other debts due within one year. . However, the Company does not have a classified balance sheet and therefore calculates working capital using an internally defined formula, which is generally calculated as unrestricted cash and investments as well as unencumbered Unencumbered Property that is not subject to any creditor claims or liens. Notes: For example, if a house is owned free and clear (meaning the owner owes no mortgage to anyone), it is unencumbered. assets that can be pledged pledge n. 1.

Management believes that this working capital calculation provides a better indication of the Company's liquidity available to conduct business at the time of calculation. A reconciliation between the Company's working capital calculation and the common definition of working capital is presented in exhibit A. During the third quarter of 2005, Saxon priced and closed a $900 million asset-backed securitization Securitization The process of creating a financial instrument by combining other financial assets and then marketing them to investors.

(1) Called loans are mortgages purchased from the SAST 98-3, 98-4, 99-
1 and 99-4 securitizations pursuant to the clean-up call provision of
the trust.
(2) Net cost to produce is defined as production expenses and premium
paid, net of fees collected, divided by loan production.
See net cost to produce calculation in Exhibit A.
(3) Beginning January 1, 2005, Correspondent flow and bulk g&a,
premium, and fees are combined to calculate net cost to produce for
the Correspondent business channel.
Prior periods have been recalculated to conform to the new
presentation.
(4) Cost to service is defined as servicing expenses dividend by
average total portfolio balance.
See cost of service calculation in Exhibit A.
(5) Credit quality statistics for quarters ended December 31, 2004 and
September 30, 2004, include called loan statistics. In addition,
all quarters presented include second mortgages originated and sold.
(6) Seriously delinquent is defined as 60 plus days past due.
(7) GAAP requires losses to be recognized immediately upon the loan
transferring to real estate owned. The trust does not recognize a
loss on real estate owned property until it is sold, which causes a
timing difference between GAAP and trust losses. In addition, trust
losses exclude losses resulting from a delinquent loan sale.
Exhibit A provides a reconcilation of GAAP to trust losses.
(8) Average interest earning assets is a daily average balance of
loans in the net mortgage loan portfolio.
(9) Average assets is calculated by adding current quarter and
previous quarter total assets, then dividing by 2.
Average equity is calculated by adding current quarter and previous
quarter
total shareholders' equity, then dividing by 2.
(10) Ratios are annualized.
(11) Net interest margin is calculated as the difference between
interest income and interest expense divided by average interest
earning assets.
(12) Efficiency ratio is calculated as total expenses divided by total
net revenues.
(13) See Exhibit A for a reconciliation of the calculation for non-
GAAP adjusted efficiency ratio.
(14) Represents actual stock prices during quarter. A $4.00 per
share merger consideration was paid during the third quarter 2004.

Net Cost to Produce (1)
Management believes net cost to produce is beneficial to investors
because it provides a measurement of efficiency in the origination
process.
The following table demonstrates the Company's calculation of net cost
to produce. There is no directly comparable GAAP financial measure
to "net cost to produce", the components of which are calculated in
accordance with GAAP.

(1) Net cost to produce is defined as production expenses and premium
paid, net of fees collected, divided by loan production.
(2) Beginning January 1, 2005, Correspondent flow and bulk g&a,
premium, and fees are combined to calculate net cost to produce for
the Correspondent business channel.
Prior periods have been recalculated to conform to the new
presentation.
(3) For purposes of net cost to produce, depreciation is removed from
other expenses (as it is presented on the income statement) and is a
component of the channel g&a expenses.
(4) Capitalized expenses are origination expenses that are capitalized
per FAS 91.
(5) Fees collected and premium are capitalized and held on balance
sheet as components of the net mortgage loan portfolio.
(6) Third quarter 2004 premium paid increased by $276 thousand due to
an adjustment. Total net cost to produce changed from 2.76% to
2.79% because of this adjustment.

=========== ============ ============ ============
It is common business practice to define working capital as
current assets less current liabilities. The Company does not have a
classified balance sheet and therefore calculates its working capital
using its own internally defined formula, which is generally
calculated as unrestricted cash and investments as well as
unencumbered assets that can be pledged against existing committed
facilities and converted to cash in five days or less.
