Insider buying last 90 days
No open-market insider purchases were filed for UWMC in the last 90 days.
From Form 4 filings, dated to when each was filed.
This week's news centers on a wave of securities class action deadline alerts from multiple law firms, including Rosen, Kaplan Fox, Faruqi & Faruqi, Bronstein Gewirtz & Grossman, and Glancy Prongay Wolke & Rotter, all tied to the period between March 9, 2026 and August 5, 2026. The underlying claim concerns alleged misleading statements about UWM's hedging strategy, specifically over-hedging ahead of a transaction, which one filing ties to a reported $603 million hedge loss connected to a failed bid to acquire Two Harbors. These alerts reference an October 13, 2026 lead plaintiff deadline.

UWM provides residential mortgage financing, giving borrowers access to home loan products that include both conforming loans and those backed by government programs. Rather than lending directly to homebuyers, the company channels its loans through a wholesale distribution approach, working with outside parties to originate mortgages. It has built its reputation around this wholesale method of getting home financing to consumers.
Operating through this wholesale structure, UWM relies on independent mortgage brokers and similar partners to connect with homebuyers, rather than marketing loans to the public directly. Its product mix centers on standard conforming mortgages alongside loans supported by government backing, which together form the core of what it originates.
UWM traces its founding back to 1986 and keeps its headquarters in Pontiac, Michigan. Its shares trade on the NYSE under the ticker UWMC.
