Park serviced sold mortgage loans of $1.84 billion at each of March 31, 2026, December 31, 2025 and March 31, 2025. At March 31, 2026, $2.3 million of the sold mortgage loans were sold with recourse, compared to $2.3 million at December 31, 2025 and $2.4 million at March 31, 2025. Management closely monitors the delinquency rates on the mortgage loans sold with recourse. At both March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, management had established reserves of $18,000, to account for expected losses on loan repurchases.
 
When Park sells mortgage loans with servicing rights retained, these servicing rights are initially recorded at fair value. Park has selected the “amortization method” as permissible within U.S. GAAP, whereby the servicing rights capitalized are amortized in proportion to and over the period of estimated future servicing income with respect to the underlying loan. At the end of each reporting period, the carrying value of MSRs is assessed for impairment with a comparison to fair value. MSRs are carried at the lower of their amortized cost or fair value. The amortization of MSRs is included within "Other service income" in the consolidated condensed statements of income.
