Jefferies initiates coverage on Nationstar Mortgage (NYSE: NSM) with a Hold. PT $40.00.

Analyst Daniel Furtado comments, "While we are positive on the NSM platform and long-term strategy, we see risks near term as HARP volumes dominate the profitability of the company. As HARP pay-ups decline as rates rise, we see near-term risks to GoS margins. With a majority of profits from originations, NSM's earnings are driven by rate-sensitive volumes/margins, warranting a discount to comps. Our PT of $40 is 6x our FY’14 EPS estimate of $6.67."
