Regulatory Developments.
Previous report
On March 7, 2023, the CFPB provided us with Notice seeking to establish supervisory authority over us pursuant to section 1024(a)(1)(C) of the Consumer Financial Protection Act of 2010. Under that provision, the CFPB may establish supervisory authority over any non-bank covered person that it has reasonable cause to determine is engaging, or has engaged, in conduct that poses risks to consumers with regard to the offering or provision of consumer financial products or services. We responded to the Notice by voluntarily consenting to the CFPB’s supervisory authority and entering into the Consent Agreement. Pursuant to the Consent Agreement and related CFPB order, the CFPB will have supervisory authority over us for a period of two years ending January 8, 2026. The Consent Agreement does not constitute an admission by us that we are a nonbank covered person who is engaging, or has engaged, in conduct that poses risks to consumers with regard to the offering or provision of consumer financial products or services. While the CFPB’s supervisory authority over us extends through January 8, 2026, in April 2025, the CFPB closed its examination of us without any adverse finding. See “Government Regulation” in Part I, Item 1 “Business” and “Risks Related to Regulation and Legal Proceedings” in Part I, Item 1A “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, as updated by Part II, Item 1A “Risk Factors” of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, for a further discussion of the regulation and regulatory risks to which we are subject.

The increase was primarily due to a 7.4% increase in average net finance receivables, partially offset by a 0.4% decrease in annualized average yield. The decrease in yield was primarily due to the estimated 50 basis point benefit in the prior-year period related to the fourth quarter 2023 loan sale.

Current wording
Earned premiums increased by $0.2 million, and claims, reserves, and certain direct expenses decreased by $1.1 million, in each case compared to the prior-year period. The increase in insurance premiums was primarily due to increases in personal property insurance premiums and life insurance premiums. The decrease in claims, reserves, and direct expenses was primarily due to a release in personal property insurance reserves related to hurricane activity in the prior-year.
