Note 5. Loans, net
The Company’s loans originate from several lending lines of business, including:
SBLs, or small business loans, are comprised primarily of Small Business Administration “SBA” loans.
Direct lease financing includes lease financing for commercial and government vehicle fleets and, to a lesser extent, provides lease financing for other equipment.
SBLOC, or securities-backed lines of credit, are made to individuals, trusts and other entities and are secured by a pledge of marketable securities maintained in one or more accounts for which the Company obtains a securities account control agreement.
IBLOC, or insurance policy cash value-backed lines of credit, are collateralized by the cash surrender value of eligible insurance policies.
Advisor financing are loans to investment advisors for purposes of debt refinancing, acquisition of another firm or internal succession.
REBL, or real estate bridge lending, are transitional commercial mortgage loans which are made to improve and rehabilitate existing properties which already have cash flow, and which are collateralized by those properties.
Fintech loans consist of short-term extensions of credit, including secured credit card loans, made in conjunction with marketers and servicers.
Other loans include warehouse financing of REBL loan sales to third-party purchasers, and loans the Company generally no longer offers, including commercial loans, CRA loans and HELOC.
Major classifications of loans, excluding commercial loans at fair value, are as follows (dollars in thousands):

In the above tables, the special mention classification indicates weaknesses that may, if not cured, threaten the borrower’s future repayment ability. A substandard classification reflects an existing weakness indicating the possible inadequacy of net worth and other repayment sources. These classifications are used both by regulators and peers, as they have been correlated with an increased probability of credit losses.

The Company has agreements with a partner to originate and service fintech loans, which includes credit enhancement provisions through which incurred losses on fintech loans are covered by the partner. The Company recognizes an estimate of loss on this portfolio through its allowance for credit losses on its fintech loans on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, with provision for credit losses on fintech loans recognized on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. In addition, the Company recognizes a corresponding amount of credit enhancement asset on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and non-interest income — fintech loan credit enhancement in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The measurement of the expected loan losses and the related credit enhancement are based on the same estimate and are equal and correlate to like amounts in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company has recognized a credit enhancement asset on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets related to the estimated recovery of its realized losses on fintech loans of $30.7 million and $31.1 million as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. All fintech loans are covered by credit enhancement agreements as of June 30, 2026.

Off-Balance Sheet Exposure
In addition to estimating credit loss for outstanding loans, the Company estimates expected credit losses over the entire period in which there is exposure to credit risk via a contractual obligation to extend credit, unless that obligation is unconditionally cancelable by the Company. The estimate of loss for unfunded loan commitments relates to our off-balance sheet credit exposure, and is adjusted through the provision for unfunded commitments. The estimate considers the likelihood that funding will occur over the estimated life of the commitment. The amount of the reserve on such exposures as of June 30, 2026 and as of December 31, 2025 was $1.5 million and $1.4 million, respectively, and is recognized within Other liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
