Altisource Asset Management (NYSEMKT:AAMC) stock is taking a beating on Tuesday after releasing its earnings report for the second quarter of 2023.

That report includes EPS of -$2.16 for the second quarter of the year. Investors aren’t pleased with that, as it’s wider than the -$2 per share reported in the same period of the year prior.

That’s despite Altisource reporting revenue of $1.92 million in its latest earnings report. This is a major increase over the $533,000 reported in the second quarter of 2022.

Altisource Asset Management also notes that it has received positive news concerning its ongoing lawsuit against Blackrock (NYSE:BLK) and PIMCO. A court-appointed Staff Master is recommending that the company’s tort and CICO damage claims are able to proceed to a U.S. Virgin Islands court.

Charlie Frischer, Board Director for Altisource Asset Management, said the following in the earnings report:

“We are pleased with the recent developments regarding our court cases […] Our current operations with the lending group are being assessed by the Board of Directors to determine the best way to achieve the efficiencies needed for a capital light approach to lending and investing.”
