Loans

Farmer Mac classifies loans as either held for investment or held for sale. Loans held for investment are recorded at the unpaid principal balance, net of unamortized premium or discount and other cost adjustments. Loans held for sale are reported at the lower of cost or fair value determined on a pooled basis. As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, Farmer Mac had no loans held for sale. The following table displays the composition of the loan balances as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013:

Unpaid principal balance is the basis of presentation in disclosures of outstanding balances for Farmer Mac's lines of business.

Allowances for Losses

Farmer Mac maintains an allowance for loan losses to account for estimated probable losses on loans held and a reserve for losses to account for estimated probable losses on loans underlying long-term standby purchase commitments ("LTSPCs") and off-balance sheet Farmer Mac Guaranteed Securities.  As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, Farmer Mac recorded allowances for losses of $11.4 million and $13.3 million, respectively. See Note 3 and Note 6 for more information about Farmer Mac Guaranteed Securities.  Farmer Mac Guaranteed Securities do not include AgVantage securities with regard to the allowance for losses discussion.

Farmer Mac's allowance for losses is presented in two components on its consolidated balance sheets:
 
an "Allowance for loan losses" on loans held; and
a "Reserve for losses" on loans underlying LTSPCs and off-balance sheet Farmer Mac Guaranteed Securities.
 
The following is a summary of the changes in the total allowance for losses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013:

During second quarter 2014, Farmer Mac recorded releases to its allowance for loan losses of $1.6 million and releases to its reserve for losses of $1.0 million. Farmer Mac also recorded $0.1 million of charge-offs to its allowance for loan losses during second quarter 2014. The releases recorded during second quarter 2014 primarily relate to a significant decline in the balance of its ethanol-related Agricultural Storage and Processing portfolio. During second quarter 2013, Farmer Mac recorded a release from its allowance for loan losses of $0.5 million and a release from its reserve for losses of $0.2 million. Farmer Mac also recorded charge-offs of $0.1 million to its allowance for loan losses during second quarter 2013. Charge-offs recorded in first quarter 2013 included a $3.6 million charge-off related to one ethanol loan that transitioned to real estate owned ("REO") during that quarter and for which Farmer Mac had previously provided a specific allowance.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, the recorded investment of loans determined to be troubled debt restructurings ("TDRs") was $0.3 million and $0.8 million, respectively, both before and after restructuring. For the three months and six months ended June 30, 2013, the recorded investment of loans determined to be TDRs was $0.7 million and $0.9 million before restructuring and $0.7 million and $1.0 million after restructuring. As of June 30, 2014, there were no TDRs identified during the previous 12 months that were in default under the modified terms. As of June 30, 2013, there were two TDRs identified during the previous 12 months that were in default under the modified terms, with a recorded investment of $0.4 million. The impact of TDRs on Farmer Mac's allowance for loan losses was immaterial for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014.

During the three months ended June 30, 2014, Farmer Mac purchased no defaulted loans. During the six months ended June 30, 2014, Farmer Mac purchased one defaulted loan having an unpaid principal balance of $0.4 million from a pool underlying an LTSPC.  During the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, Farmer Mac purchased six defaulted loans having an unpaid principal balance of $5.9 million and eight defaulted loans having an unpaid principal balance of $6.1 million, respectively, from pools underlying Farm & Ranch Guaranteed Securities and LTSPCs.

The following tables present information related to Farmer Mac's acquisition of defaulted loans for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 and the outstanding balances and carrying amounts of all such loans as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013:

Includes loans and loans underlying off-balance sheet Farm & Ranch Guaranteed Securities and LTSPCs that are 90 days or more past due, in foreclosure, restructured after delinquency, or in bankruptcy, excluding loans performing under either their original loan terms or a court-approved bankruptcy plan.


Of the $25.1 million and $27.6 million of on-balance sheet loans reported as 90-day delinquencies as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively, $1.2 million, were loans subject to "removal-of-account" provisions.

Credit Quality Indicators

Farmer Mac analyzes credit risk related to loans held and loans underlying LTSPCs and off-balance sheet Farm & Ranch Guaranteed Securities based on internally assigned loan scores (i.e., risk ratings) that are derived by taking into consideration such factors as historical repayment performance, indicators of current financial condition, loan seasoning, loan size, and loan-to-value ratio. Loans are then classified into one of the following asset categories based on their underlying risk rating: acceptable; other assets especially mentioned; and substandard. Farmer Mac believes this analysis provides meaningful information regarding the credit risk profile of its Farm & Ranch portfolio as of each quarterly reporting period end date.

Farmer Mac also uses 90-day delinquency information to evaluate its credit risk exposure on these assets because historically it has been the best measure of borrower credit quality deterioration. Most of the loans held and underlying LTSPCs and off-balance sheet Farm & Ranch Guaranteed Securities have annual (January 1) or semi-annual (January 1 and July 1) payment dates and are supported by less frequent and less predictable revenue sources, such as the cash flows generated from the maturation of crops, sales of livestock, and government farm support programs.  Taking into account the reduced frequency of payment due dates and revenue sources, Farmer Mac considers 90-day delinquency to be the most significant observation point when evaluating delinquency information.

The following tables present credit quality indicators related to Farm & Ranch loans held and loans underlying LTSPCs and off-balance sheet Farm & Ranch Guaranteed Securities as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013:

The original loan-to-value ratio is calculated by dividing the loan principal balance at the time of guarantee, purchase, or commitment by the appraised value at the date of loan origination or, when available, the updated appraised value at the time of guarantee, purchase, or commitment.  Current loan-to-value ratios may be higher or lower than the original loan-to-value ratios.
