(1)Represents the weighted average of the ratings of all securities in each asset type, expressed as an S&P equivalent rating. For each security rated by multiple rating agencies, the highest rating is used. The ratings provided were determined by third-party rating agencies. The rates may not be current and are subject to change (including the assignment of a “negative outlook” or “credit watch”) at any time.
(2)As of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, includes $9.0 million and $9.9 million of restricted securities which are designated as risk retention securities under the Dodd Frank Act and are therefore subject to transfer restrictions over the term of the securitization trust and are classified as held-to-maturity and reported at amortized cost.
(3)The amounts presented represent the principal amount of the mortgage loans outstanding in the pool in which the interest-only securities participate.
(4)As of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, includes $0.4 million and $0.5 million of restricted securities which are designated as risk retention securities under the Dodd-Frank Act and are therefore subject to transfer restrictions over the term of the securitization trust and are classified as held-to-maturity and reported at amortized cost.
(5)Agency interest-only securities are recorded at fair value with changes in fair value recorded in current period earnings. The Company’s Agency interest-only securities are considered to be hybrid financial instruments that contain embedded
derivatives. As a result, the Company has elected to account for them as hybrid instruments in their entirety at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in unrealized gain (loss) on Agency interest-only securities in the consolidated statements of income.
(6)The Company’s investments in debt securities represents an ownership interest in unconsolidated VIEs. The Company’s maximum exposure to loss from these unconsolidated VIEs is the amortized cost basis of the securities which represents the purchase price of the investment adjusted by any unamortized premiums or discounts as of the reporting date.
(7)Based on the Company’s analysis, including review of interest rate changes and current levels of subordination, among other factors, the unrealized loss positions are determined to be due to market factors other than credit.
