The Company’s servicing rights are carried at amortized cost and evaluated quarterly for impairment. The Company
estimates the fair value of these servicing rights by using a combination of internal models and data provided by third-
party valuation experts. The assumptions used in the Company’s internal models include forward prepayment rates,
forward default rates, discount rates, and servicing expenses.
The Company’s models calculate the present value of expected future cash flows utilizing assumptions that it believes
are used by market participants. Forward prepayment rates, forward default rates and discount rates are derived from
historical experiences adjusted for prevailing market conditions. Components of the estimated future cash flows include
servicing fees, late fees, other ancillary fees and cost of servicing.
