Current report

As described in Note 4 of the consolidated financial statements, effective September 30, 2025, the Company enhanced its allowance for credit loss ("ACL") calculation, which included a change in ACL software vendors. These enhancements are intended to better align the estimation process with the nature and risk profile of the Company's loan portfolio, while enhancing operational efficiency and consistency in application. These enhancements did not have a material impact to the Company's financial statements. See Note 4 for additional information related to the change.

Current report

For segments other than the consumer solar loan segment, the quantitative portion of the allowance for credit losses continues to be calculated using the discounted cash flow methodology ("DCF") whereby the amortized cost basis of the loan is compared to the net present value of expected cash flows to be collected. The DCF calculation was enhanced in the current quarter to incorporate more granular peer loss data and to update our reasonable and supportable forecast period. Since the adoption of ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326), the Company has estimated the quantitative reserves using the same peer group for all portfolio segments as well as an eight-quarter forecast with a four-quarter straight-line reversion. We are now utilizing portfolio segment specific peer groups and a four-quarter forecast with a four-quarter straight-line reversion to produce reasonable and supportable results. The peer group enhancement was made to allow for the inclusion of portfolio segment specific peers, which may not align across all segments, which refines the peer loss data. The reasonable and supportable forecast period enhancement made to shorten the forecast period increases reliability and accuracy of the macroeconomic forecasts. In addition, we developed assumptions for curtailment rate and recovery lag periods which are required assumptions within the new ACL calculation software.

Current report

For the consumer solar loan segment, we changed our method of calculating the ACL from a DCF methodology to the weighted average remaining maturity ("WARM") methodology. The WARM methodology calculates expected credit losses based on historical loss rates and forecasts those losses over the weighted average remaining maturity of the portfolio. We continue to use the Company's loss history for this segment. We determined that the WARM methodology is an enhancement to calculate reserves for this segment given the core assumption of the methodology is based on use of internal loss data applied to a straight-line balance reduction, which is aligned with the nature of repayment of these loans as well as the Company’s strategy of portfolio runoff.

Previous report

On July 4, 2025, President Trump signed into law the legislation formally titled “An Act to Provide for Reconciliation Pursuant to Title II of H. Con. Res. 14” and commonly referred to as the One Big Beautiful Bill (the "Act”). The Company is currently evaluating income tax implications of the Act. The Company does not expect the Act to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

Previous report

Determining the appropriateness of the allowance is complex and requires judgment by management about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. In determining the allowance for credit losses for loans that share similar risk characteristics, the Company utilizes a model which compares the amortized cost basis of the loan to the net present value of expected cash flows to be collected. Expected credit losses are determined by aggregating the individual cash flows and calculating a loss percentage by loan segment for loans that share similar risk characteristics. For a loan that does not share risk characteristics with other loans, the Company will evaluate the loan on an individual basis. Within the model, assumptions are made in the determination of baseline loss rates, severity rates, reasonable and supportable economic forecasts, and prepayment rates.

Previous wording

The allowance for credit losses is established and maintained through a provision for credit losses based on expected losses inherent in our loan portfolio. Management evaluates the adequacy of the allowance on a quarterly basis, and additions to the allowance are charged to expense and subsequent changes (favorable and unfavorable) in expected credit losses are recognized immediately in net income as a credit loss expense or a reversal of credit loss expense. Loans are charged off against the allowance when management believes the uncollectibility of a loan balance is confirmed, expected recoveries do not exceed the aggregate of amounts previously charged-off and expected to be charged-off.

Determining the appropriateness of the allowance is complex and requires judgment by management about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain.

Previous wording

The Company assesses the sensitivity of key assumptions at least annually by stressing the assumptions to understand the impact on the model. While management utilizes its best judgment and information available, the ultimate adequacy of our allowance is dependent upon a variety of factors beyond our control which are inherently difficult to predict, the most significant being the macroeconomic forecasts. The Company's forecast of economic conditions considers baseline, favorable, and adverse scenarios. As economic conditions can change, the anticipated amount of estimated loan defaults and losses, and therefore the adequacy of the allowance, could change significantly. Economic conditions more favorable than forecasted could lead to reductions in the amount of the allowance, and conversely conditions more adverse than forecasted could require increases in the amount of the allowance. Changes in economic forecasts may not occur in the same direction or magnitude across all segments of our loan portfolio and deterioration in some quantitative inputs may offset improvement in others. The Company selects the economic forecast that is most reflective of expectations at that point in time, and changes could significantly impact the calculated estimated credit losses.

Current wording

For segments with reserves calculated under the DCF model, a peer group by segment is used to develop periodic default rates, and statistical regression is utilized to relate historical macro-economic variables to historical credit loss experience of that peer group of banks. These models are then utilized to forecast future expected credit losses based on expected future behavior of the same macro-economic variables. The Company assesses the sensitivity of key assumptions of the DCF methodologies by segment at least annually by stressing the assumptions to understand the impact on the model. While management utilizes its best judgment and information available, the ultimate adequacy of our allowance is dependent upon a variety of factors beyond our control which are inherently difficult to predict, the most significant being the macroeconomic forecasts. The Company's forecast considers a baseline scenario that may be adjusted by way of alternative scenarios with varying degrees of severity. As economic conditions can change, the anticipated amount of estimated loan defaults and losses, and therefore the adequacy of the allowance, could change significantly. Economic conditions more favorable than forecasted could lead to reductions in the amount of the allowance, and conversely conditions more adverse than forecasted could require increases in the amount of the allowance. The Company selects the economic forecast that is most reflective of expectations at that point in time, and changes could significantly impact the calculated estimated credit losses.

Previous wording

For segments that rely on a peer group to develop baseline loss rates, statistical regression is utilized to relate historical macro-economic variables to historical credit loss experience of a peer group of banks. These models are then utilized to forecast future expected credit losses based on expected future behavior of the same macro-economic variables. Adjustments to the quantitative results are made using qualitative factors. These factors include: (1) borrowers' financial condition; (2) borrowers' ability to pay; (3) nature and volume of financial assets; (4) value of the underlying collateral; (5) lending policies and procedures; (6) quality of the loan review system; (7) the experience, ability, and depth of staff; (8) regulatory and legal environment; (9) changes in market conditions; and (10) changes in economic conditions.

Current wording

Adjustments to the quantitative results for both DCF and WARM models are made using qualitative factors. These factors include: (1) borrowers' financial condition; (2) borrowers' ability to pay; (3) nature and volume of financial assets; (4) value of the underlying collateral; (5) lending policies and procedures; (6) quality of the loan review system; (7) the experience, ability, and depth of staff; (8) regulatory and legal environment; (9) changes in market conditions; and (10) changes in economic conditions.
