SECURITIZATIONS AND VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES | |
SECURITIZATIONS AND VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES | NOTE 4 – SECURITIZATIONS AND VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES In prior years, the Company completed four different Freddie Mac sponsored securitizations. The Company retained beneficial interests from each securitization which are classified as trading securities on the consolidated balance sheets. Details related to the securitizations and related VIEs can be found in Note 4 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included under Item 8 of Part I of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024. At June 30, 2025, the Company determined it was not the primary beneficiary of the various VIEs involved in these securitizations primarily because the Company did not have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the VIEs. Evaluation and assessment of VIEs for consolidation is performed on an ongoing basis by management. Any changes in facts and circumstances occurring since the previous primary beneficiary determination will be considered as part of this ongoing assessment. The Company’s total assets related to the VIEs as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 were $82.9 million and $83.5 million, respectively and there were no liabilities recorded. The Company’s maximum exposure to loss associated with these VIEs consists of the capital invested plus any unfunded equity commitments that are binding. As of June 30, 2025, the Company’s maximum exposure to loss related to the VIEs was $85.5 million. |
