Throughout this document, we refer to Ministry Partners Investment Company, LLC and its subsidiaries as “the Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our.”

Purpose and Mission

Ministry Partners Investment Company, LLC’s mission has been to strengthen Christian stewardship by providing financial products and services to churches and ministries, individuals and businesses, as well as other financial institutions including credit unions and banks, investment and insurance companies, and denominational loan funds. Whether you are working with our investment advisory, insurance agency, broker-dealer, church financing, or servicing operations, our unique approach to financial services is designed to provide you with the highest quality advice based upon sound biblical and business principles.

Our value proposition is built upon a foundational premise that stewardship excellence can be achieved by working in collaboration with multiple financial professionals with broad-

3

based expertise who are focused on helping the individuals, ministries, business owners, and organizations we serve meet their financial objectives.

Organization

We are a credit union service organization (CUSO) owned by 11 credit unions and organized as a California limited liability company. We commenced operations in 1991. We have four wholly owned subsidiaries through which we conduct various aspects of our business:

● Ministry Partners Securities, LLC. (“MP Securities”),

● Ministry Partners for Christ, Inc. (“MPC”),

● Ministry Partners Funding, LLC. (“MPF”), and

● MP Realty Services, Inc. (“MP Realty”).

MP Securities is a Delaware limited liability company we formed on April 26, 2010. We began conducting business operations through MP Securities in 2012. MP Securities provides investment advisory, insurance, and financial planning solutions for individuals, businesses, and faith-based organizations. MP Securities also serves as the selling agent for the Company’s public and private placement notes.

MPC is a not-for-profit corporation formed and organized under Delaware law. We founded MPC in order to make charitable grants to Christian organizations, and provide consulting, and financial expertise to aid evangelical Christian ministries. The Internal Revenue Service has granted MPC tax-exempt status under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code.

MPF serves as the custodian of assets pledged to investors in our secured investment notes. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, we have no secured investment notes outstanding.

We organized MP Realty to provide loan brokerage and other real estate services to churches and ministries. MP Realty has conducted limited operations since its launch.

Our Competition

Investment advisory, broker-dealer, insurance, and financial planning services

There are many mainstream financial services organizations that serve the faith-based market segment throughout the United States. Most of the competitors in this institutional market segment are banks, credit unions, denominational investment funds, as well as larger investment and insurance organizations. However, the overall size of the market segment provides ample opportunities for quality firms with specialized knowledge of the

4

governance surrounding churches and ministries to effectively provide and expand the services we offer. We also serve the retail marketplace throughout the United States. While the retail market segment has large national competitors that offer alternative options, MP Securities’ comprehensive approach to offering investment and insurance advice with a missional purpose of strengthening Christian stewardship of financial resources enables us to provide services and products to an expanding market of potential clients.

The religious loan market segment

This segment has grown since our launch in 1991, and we believe that the demand for ministry loans originated and serviced by niche lenders to churches and ministries will continue to exceed available lending and financing sources for this sector. We believe that the availability of lenders serving this market has been unpredictable as larger financial institutions expand, contract, or vacate this niche market during periods of fluctuating demand and changing market conditions. We have specialized in helping these organizations since we began operations in 1991 and believe that the lack of predictable financing sources for evangelical Christian churches and organizations enables us to serve ministries that otherwise may not be able to obtain cost-effective mortgage loans.

Although the demand for church financing is both broad and fragmented, no one lender has a dominant competitive position in the market. We compete with church bond financing companies, banks, credit unions, denominational loan funds, REITs, insurance companies, and other financial institutions to service this market. Many of these entities have greater marketing resources, extensive networks of offices, larger staffs, and lower cost of operations due to their size. However, we believe we have developed an efficient, effective, and economical operation that (i) specializes in identifying and creating a diversified portfolio of church mortgage loans that we or other credit unions originate and (ii) preserves our capital base and generates consistent income for payments on our debt obligations and generates investment returns for our equity investors.

We rely upon the extensive experience of our officers, management team, and Board of Managers in working with ministry related financing transactions, loan origination, and investment in churches, schools, ministries, and non-profit organizations.

Our Principal Business and Markets

Overview

We serve individuals, businesses, churches, ministries, and financial institutions through two primary business segments. One is our investment advisory practice, broker-dealer firm, and insurance agency and the other consists of our ministry and business lending

5

financing group. Within these segments, we offer a wide range of products and services for our customers and clients.

We generate our revenue primarily from the following sources:

● interest income earned on our loan investments;

● fee and/or commission income earned from the sale of securities, insurance, investment products, and fees received by our registered advisers for handling assets under management; and

● fee income earned from originating and servicing our loan investments.

While we strive to generate consistent earnings from these primary revenue sources, we have been able to generate income from non-recurring revenue generating activities. These include recoveries realized on distressed assets we hold, and other non-recurring events. For example, for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, we benefitted from non-recurring gains of $2.5 million and $2.4 million on the extinguishment of debt. See “Part II, Item 7. Management Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in this Report for more information on those transactions.

Investment Solutions Segment

We provide investment advisory, broker-dealer, insurance, and financial planning solutions for our clients. We serve individuals, businesses, churches, and ministries through our wholly-owned broker-dealer, MP Securities, which serves as an investment advisory and broker-dealer firm with access to mainstream investment platforms that offer high quality products and services. MP Securities serves its clients through a comprehensive approach based upon identifying the client’s needs and objectives. This financial planning process considers all options available to our clients as we act in their best interest to meet our fiduciary duty of care.

For individuals and businesses, our mission is to strengthen their stewardship of personal wealth through biblically based financial and legacy planning, ethically responsible investment and insurance advice. For these clients the Company provides planning for retirement, college funding, insurance, inheritance, and tax management.

For our church and ministry clients, through MP Securities, we strengthen their stewardship of resources through prudent treasury management services, ethically responsible investments, sound employee benefits, and risk planning.

MP Securities holds a resident license from the California Department of Insurance to act as an Insurance Producer under the name Ministry Partners Insurance Agency, LLC. MP

6

Securities offers its insurance products and services to help protect clients from unexpected life events. MP Securities also offers life, disability, long-term care, fixed, variable, and indexed annuities to its retail and institutional clients. With respect to the annuity products available through MP Securities, many of our clients use annuity products that mitigate risk through income guarantees. In all cases, MP Securities and its advisors have an obligation to act in the best interest of its clients.

MP Securities keeps a clearing firm relationship with Royal Bank of Canada Dain Rauscher (“RBC Dain”), which provides additional investment platform options for our clientele. As a non-carrying broker-dealer, MP Securities opens brokerage accounts for its customers through its clearing firm agreement with RBC Dain.

MP Securities also serves financial institutions by providing securities brokerage services to credit unions, CUSOs, and the customers and institutions it serves. It also acts as a selling agent for the Company’s debt securities offered through both public and private note offerings.

Loan Financing Segment

Overview

We help Christian churches and organizations by providing financing for the acquisition, development, and/or renovation of churches or church-related properties, and provide investors the opportunity to participate in funding those projects. We typically secure these loans by real property owned by churches or church-related organizations such as Christian schools and ministries. As of December 31, 2022, real estate secured 99.4% of the loans in our portfolio. We also invest in for-profit commercial and business loans to entities run by Christian principals. Currently, we conduct all our business operations in California. However, we own loan interests in 28 different states.

We acquire loans either through originating loans internally or buying loans or loan participation interests from other financial institutions. When we originate a loan, we rely on our own underwriting capabilities and standards. For loans that we buy, we apply our internally developed underwriting criteria and loan acquisition policies and review the underwriting procedures carried out by the financial institution that is selling the loan or participation interest.

Funding Our Operations

We have relied on three primary on-balance sheet sources to fund our church and ministry loan investments. These include (i) our investor debt securities; (ii) borrowings from financial institutions; and (iii) capital investments of our equity members. To fund a substantial part of our loan investments, we rely on sales of our debt securities to new and

7

repeat investors. We market our debt securities primarily to investors who are in or associated with the Christian community. Our investors include individuals, businesses, churches, and ministries. We also have funded portions of our loan investments through borrowings from financial institutions. From time to time, we also raise funds by selling participation interests in our loan investments to other financial institutions. Finally, the Company’s owners have made significant capital investment into the Company that is available to fund the balance sheet along with the Company’s ongoing earnings.

In the past several years, we have reduced our funding reliance on borrowings from financial institutions, shifting the funding focus on investor securities and members equity. The chart below shows the shift in the strategy we have used to finance our investments and business operations (dollars in thousands):

	Balance Sheet Funding Sources as of

Over the past three years, we took advantage of opportunities to make discounted early payoffs on our term-debt credit facilities. During 2022, the Company paid off the remaining $32.8 million that was outstanding as of December 31, 2021, resulting in a gain on debt extinguishment of $2.5 million in 2022. Our gain on debt extinguishment over the last three years totaled $7.3 million with $71.4 million in term-debt paid off. With our term-debt fully paid off, going forward we do not expect any future income from gains on debt extinguishment.

From time to time, we enter into loan participation purchase and sale agreements and we believe there is a robust demand for church and ministry loans in the credit union industry. Typically, when we sell a loan participation interest, we enter into a loan participation interest purchase agreement, which includes standard representations and warranties that are typical for a transaction of this nature. We believe we have the processing systems and loan servicing capabilities to continue to expand our portfolio of loans serviced for others. We expect our loan sales to be minimal in 2023 as we seek to grow our loan portfolio.

Human Capital Resources

The Company relies on the experience of its lending, financial services, underwriting, loan servicing skills, and experience of its management team. A substantial number of its employees have extensive experience in the financial services industry. We have staff located in our Brea, Glendora, and Fresno, California offices. As the Company expands the range of services, products, and investment services it offers, the Company will look to find and recruit qualified personnel that will enable the Company to further diversify the services and products it offers and increase its revenues and profitability.

The COVID-19 pandemic has caused major disruptions in the U.S. economy and the way businesses run due to state and local government restrictions designed to limit social interaction to slow the spread of the virus. To protect its employees, the Company has allowed remote work environments and modified work schedules. As of the date of this Report, the U.S. recovery from the pandemic has not materially affected the Company’s operations.

Effect of Government Regulations on the Business

General

We are a CUSO and, as a result, are subject to the regulations published by the National Credit Union Administration (“NCUA”) that apply to CUSOs. As a CUSO, we primarily serve the interests of our credit union equity investors and members of such credit unions. We are also subject to various laws and regulations that govern:

● credit granting activities;

9

● establishment of maximum interest rates;

● data privacy standards;

● disclosures to borrowers and investors in our equity securities;

● secured transactions;

● foreclosure, judicial sale, and creditor remedies that are available to a secured lender; and

● the licensure requirements of mortgage lenders, finance lenders, securities brokers, and financial advisers.

As a CUSO, we may provide a limited scope of activities. In addition, our federal credit union equity investors are allowed to invest in or lend to a CUSO only if the CUSO primarily serves credit unions, its membership, or the membership of credit unions contracting with the CUSO. While the NCUA lacks direct supervisory authority over our operations, our federal credit union equity owners are subject to regulations which govern the rules and conditions of an investment or loan they make or sell to a CUSO. In addition, state-chartered credit unions must follow their respective state’s guidelines which govern investments by a state chartered credit union. California’s DFPI regulates several of our equity owners. These credit union owners must follow DFPI regulations that govern the investment in a loan they make to a CUSO.

Regulation of Mortgage Lenders

We conduct loan originating activities for churches and other for-profit business projects. Many states regulate the investment in or origination of mortgage loans. Under the California Finance Lender’s Law, no lender may engage in the business of delivering services as a “finance lender” or “broker” without obtaining a license from the DFPI, unless otherwise exempt under the law. We conduct our commercial and business lending activities under a California finance lender license.

As a finance lender, we are licensed with and file reports from time to time with the DFPI. The DFPI has enforcement authority over our operations as a finance lender, which includes, among other things, the ability to assess civil monetary penalties, issue cease and desist orders, and initiate injunctive actions. We also are subject to licensing requirements in other jurisdictions in connection with our mortgage and business lending activities. Various laws and judicial and administrative decisions may impose requirements and restrictions that govern secured transactions, require specific disclosure to our borrowers and customers, establish collection, foreclosure, and repossession standards, and regulate the use and reporting of certain borrower and customer financial information.

10

As we offer and originate loans outside of the State of California, we need to follow the laws and regulations of those states. The statutes which govern mortgage lending and origination activities vary by state. Because these laws are constantly changing it is difficult to comprehensively identify, accurately interpret, and effectively train our staff with respect to all of these laws and regulations. We intend to follow all applicable laws and regulations wherever we do business and will undertake a best-efforts program to do so, including the engagement of professional consultants, legal counsel, and other experts as believed necessary by our management.

Broker-Dealer Registration

U.S. broker-dealers are subject to rules and regulations imposed by the SEC, FINRA, other self-regulatory organizations, and state securities administrators covering all aspects of the securities business. As a registered broker-dealer under Section 15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), MP Securities is subject to regulation by the SEC and by state securities administrators in the states in which it conducts its activities. We have registered MP Securities in the following states:

Arizona	Idaho	Minnesota	Oklahoma	Texas
California	Illinois	Missouri	Oregon	Virginia
Colorado	Indiana	Nevada	Pennsylvania	Washington
Florida	Kansas	New York	Rhode Island
Georgia	Massachusetts	Ohio	South Carolina

MP Securities is subject to rules and regulations regarding:

● net capital;

● sales practices;

● public and private securities offerings;

● capital adequacy;

● record keeping and reporting;

● conflicts of interest involving related parties;

● conduct of officers;

● directors and employees;

● qualification and licensing of supervisory and sales personnel;

● marketing practices; and

11

● supervisory and oversight of personnel to ensure compliance with securities laws.

MP Securities is also subject to the financial responsibility, net capital, customer protection, record keeping, and notification rule amendments adopted by the SEC on July 30, 2013. Because MP Securities does not carry or hold customer funds or securities and relies upon a clearing firm to conduct these transactions, Rule 17a-5 requires that it files an exemption report as well as review reports prepared by an independent public accountant confirming that it meets the exemption provisions. As amended, the net capital rule requires that MP Securities consider in its computation of regulatory net capital any liabilities the Company assumes of its parent entity.

MP Securities is also subject to routine inspections and examinations by the SEC staff under Rule 17(b) of the Exchange Act and the SEC may review, if asked, the work papers of the broker-dealer’s independent public accounting firm that conducts the audit. As required by amendments to Rule 17a-5 of the Exchange Act, MP Securities files an annual report with the SEC and FINRA that includes its audited financial statements, supplementary schedules, and its exemption report as a non-carrying broker-dealer. MP Securities also files a copy of its annual report with the SIPC.

Much of the regulation of broker-dealers in the U.S. has been delegated to self-regulatory organizations, principally FINRA and the securities exchanges. FINRA adopts and amends rules (which are subject to approval by the SEC) for regulating the industry and conducts periodic examinations of member firms. The SEC, FINRA, and state securities administrators may conduct administrative proceedings that can result in censure, fine, suspension, or expulsion of a broker-dealer, its officers, or employees.

Due to our close affiliation with MP Securities, we are subject to related party transaction disclosure issues under federal and state securities laws and rules adopted by FINRA. Related party transactions can raise regulatory concerns:

● in determining whether MP Securities meets its net capital requirements;

● in whether the allocation of costs is fairly treated in any expense sharing arrangements, or management services agreements entered into with the Company;

● regarding compensation paid to sales representatives in selling proprietary securities products offered by the Company; and

● following the suitability, know your customer, and fair practices and dealings obligations under federal and state law and rules imposed by FINRA on broker-dealer firms.

12

MP Securities is also subject to FINRA’s review and policies governing disclosure practices when offering proprietary securities products, training its staff to identify and manage conflicts of interest, and reporting on significant conflict issues, including the firm’s adopted measures to identify and manage conflicts, to the MP Securities Board of Managers and its Chief Executive Officer.

As a broker-dealer firm, MP Securities is subject to regulation regarding:

● sales methods;

● use of advertising materials;

● arrangements with clearing firms or exchanges;

● record keeping;

● regulatory reporting; and

● conduct of managers, officers, employees, and supervision.

To the extent MP Securities solicits orders from customers, it will be subject to additional rules and regulations governing sales practices and suitability rules imposed on member firms.

MP Securities acts as a selling agent for the Company’s public and private debt securities. Due to this role, MP Securities must follow FINRA’s filing requirements for these offerings. We believe that MP Securities has followed its filing obligations as required under applicable FINRA, SEC, and state securities laws.

MP Securities must also hold minimum net capital per FINRA rules. In general, net capital is the net worth of the entity (assets minus liabilities) less any other imposed deductions or other charges. A member firm that does not keep the required net capital must cease conducting business. If it does not do so, it may be subject to suspension or revocation of registration by the SEC and suspension or expulsion by FINRA. Under its Membership Agreement with FINRA, MP Securities must keep minimum net capital of the greater of $5,000 or one fifteenth of its aggregate indebtedness. As required by the 2013 amendments adopted by the SEC, MP Securities must include any liabilities assumed by the Company unless the Company is able to prove that it has adequate capital to pay such expenses.

Regulation of Investment Advisers

On July 11, 2013, the State of California granted its approval for MP Securities to deliver investment advisory services to its clients. As a California registered investment advisory firm, MP Securities must develop and sustain compliance procedures, record keeping

13

procedures, follow custody rules, marketing and disclosure obligations. MP Securities is also subject to the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended, and related regulations. The SEC may institute proceedings and impose fines and sanctions for violation of the Investment Advisers Act. In addition to ensuring MP Securities’ compliance with federal and state laws governing its activities as a California registered investment advisory firm, the California DFPI requires that representatives hired by MP Securities meet certain qualification requirements, including complying with testing requirements and examinations.

Our failure to follow the requirements of the Investment Advisers Act, related SEC rules or regulations, and provisions of the California Corporations Code and Code of Regulations could have a material negative effect on us. We believe we are following all material aspects with SEC requirements and California laws and regulations. As MP Securities hires new registered investment advisers, it must check its compliance with SEC and DFPI regulations.

Fiduciary Standards

The Dodd-Frank Act authorized the SEC to consider whether broker-dealer firms should be held to a standard of care similar to the fiduciary standard applied to registered investment advisors. Although the SEC has not adopted the fiduciary rule for broker-dealer firms, the DOL issued final regulations in April 2016 which expanded the definition as to who will be considered to be an “investment advice fiduciary” under the Employment Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (“ERISA”). DOL also issued a new prohibited transaction exemption known as the best interest contract exemption designed to address conflicts that may arise when a person provides advice to a retail investor that may be vulnerable to conflicts of interest involving the advisory firm.

With the issuance of the DOL fiduciary rule under ERISA, fiduciary status would be extended to investment advisors and investment professionals that have previously not been considered fiduciaries. If considered a fiduciary, the representative is held to a strict standard requiring the representative to act solely in the interests of plan participants and beneficiaries. With the adoption of the fiduciary standard, the representative is subject to personal liability to the ERISA plan for breaches of its actions under the rule. Implementation of the DOL fiduciary rule, especially in the context of a MP Securities adviser or sales representative rolling over an individual retirement account (“IRA”) into our proprietary debt securities, will require that we:

● incur additional compliance costs;

● engage in further training initiatives;

● undertake a thorough review of available transactional exemptions from the rule;

14

● prepare agreements to follow such rule; and

● implement information technology revisions to our policies and procedures to follow DOL’s fiduciary rule.

Regulation Best Interest Standard

The Regulation Best Interest standard was adopted by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on June 5, 2019 and became effective on September 10, 2019 (“Reg BI”). Under Reg BI, a new standard of conduct has been created for broker-dealer firms and their sales personnel when making a recommendation to purchase a security to a retail investor. Under Reg BI, a broker-dealer firm must act in the best interest of the retail customer at the time the recommendation is made and follow the following component obligations:

(i) furnish disclosures regarding the material fees and costs that apply to the investor’s account, type and scope of services provided by the broker-dealer firm, minimum account size, the general basis and investment approach of the broker-dealer firm, and disclosure of any material facts relating to a conflict of interest that may affect a broker-dealer’s recommendation;

(ii) exercise reasonable diligence, care, and skill in making the recommendation;

(iii) establish, maintain, and enforce written policies and procedures reasonably designed to address conflicts of interest; and

(iv) establish, maintain, and enforce written policies and procedures reasonably designed to achieve compliance with Reg BI.

With the adoption of Reg BI, state securities regulators may impose or require more rigorous investor suitability standards than those, which are set forth above. In addition, there is inadequate administrative or case law which can give guidance as to how Reg BI will be interpreted. Finally, the Company may need to impose more rigorous quantitative suitability standards for investments made in our investor notes in the future if one or more state regulators adopt more stringent suitability regulations or policies per Reg BI.

Privacy Standards

The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Financial Services Modernization Act of 1999 (“GLBA”) modernized the financial services industry by setting up a comprehensive framework to permit affiliations among commercial banks, insurance companies, securities firms, and other financial service providers. We are subject to regulations implementing the privacy protection provisions of the GLBA. These regulations require us to show our privacy policy, including identifying with whom we share “non-public personal information” to

15

our investors and borrowers at the time of establishing the customer relationship and annually thereafter. The State of California’s Financial Information Privacy Act also regulates consumer’s rights under California law to restrict the sharing of financial data. In recent years, there has been a heightened legislative and regulatory focus on data security, including requiring customer notification if a data breach occurs. As MP Securities expands its investment advisory business operations, it will also need to monitor legislative and regulatory initiatives that affect investment advisers.

ITEM 1A.RISK FACTORS

Any of the following identified risks, along with other unidentified risks, or risks we believe are immaterial or unlikely, could harm the Company. The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only risks that may have a material, adverse effect on us. Additional risks and uncertainties also could adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations. The risks discussed below include forward-looking statements, and our actual results may differ substantially from those discussed in these forward-looking statements. Investors should carefully consider the risks described below in conjunction with the other information in this Form 10-K.

Risks Related to the Company

We may be unable to obtain sufficient capital to meet the financing requirements of our business.

Our ability to finance our operations and repay maturing obligations to our investors primarily depends on our ability to raise funds from the sale of our debt securities. Factors that affect our ability to sell our debt securities include, but are not limited to:

● quality of the mortgage loan and business loan investments we make;

● the profitability of our operations; and

● limitations imposed under our credit facility arrangements and trust indenture agreements that have restrictive and negative covenants that may limit our ability to borrow additional sums or sell our publicly and privately offered debt securities.

Our growth is dependent on leverage, which may create other risks.

We use responsible leverage, which means borrowing to invest in mortgage assets. This mechanism creates net interest income for the Company. Our Board of Managers has overall responsibility for our financing strategy. Our success is dependent, in part, upon our ability to manage our leverage effectively. Leverage creates an opportunity for

16

increased net income, but at the same time creates risks. For example, leveraging magnifies changes in our net worth. We will incur leverage only when we expect that it will enhance our investment returns. To generate a quick sell on an asset, the asset often sells at a discount. There can be no assurance that we will be able to meet our debt service obligations; and, if we must quickly sell assets to meet our debt service obligations, we risk incurring a loss on some or all those assets. Our management has been working on reducing the Company’s reliance on leverage by increasing revenue from non-balance sheet sources that do not require leverage, such as our broker-dealer commissions and loan servicing income.

A portion of our mortgage loans collateralizes our credit facilities; therefore, these pledged assets will be unavailable to meet our unsecured debt obligations.

Our lines of credit requires that we secure them with mortgage loans, keeping a minimum collateralization ratio on each credit facility. Loans pledged as collateral to the lines of credit will be unavailable for other cash flow purposes, including meeting our unsecured debt obligations. A default on one of our credit facilities could reduce the availability of other assets on our balance sheet, and adversely affect our liquidity and ability to repay our investor notes.

The following table shows the recorded balance of loans pledged and not pledged as collateral as of December 31, 2022 (dollars in thousands):

	Recorded Loan Balance
Collateral pledged to line of credit	$	17,819
Loans not pledged		69,223
Total loans	$	87,042

Our financing arrangements have covenants that restrict our operations and any default under these arrangements would inhibit our ability to grow our business, increase revenue, and make distributions to our equity investors.

Our financing arrangements have restrictions, covenants, and events of default. Failure to meet or satisfy any of these covenants could result in an event of default under these agreements. Our default under any of our financing arrangements could have a material, adverse effect on our business, financial condition, liquidity, results of operations, and our ability to make distributions to our equity investors. These restrictions also may interfere with our ability to obtain financing or engage in other business activities.

We may be unable to successfully implement our strategy to grow our mortgage loan and non-interest generating segments of our business.

Over the past decade, we have gradually decreased the total amount of mortgage loans on our balance sheet as part of an effort to reduce risk in the portfolio and pay off our long-

17

term debt. Having completed those objectives the Company intends to enter a growth phase and increase our loan portfolio. We have also implemented a strategic objective of transitioning to a more diversified financial services. We also intend to continue our strategy of offering additional financial products and services to our equity owners, strategic partners, and clients. Continuing to grow our business will depend, in part, on our ability to address the needs of our clients, borrowers, investors and strategic partners by effectively using technology to provide products and services that will enable us to create additional efficiencies in our business and expand the scope of and volume of financial transactions we are able to complete. If we cannot effectively grow our business our operations and financial condition may be adversely impacted.

Loss of our management team or the ability to attract and keep key employees could harm our business.

We are dependent on the industry knowledge, professional skillsets, institutional contacts, and overall financial services experience of our senior management team. We rely on our management team to develop relationships with current and potential clients and strategic business partners. We also rely on our management team to develop new products and services for our clientele, as well as the continued expansion of complimentary lines of business to diversify the Company’s value proposition further. We can give no assurances that we will be able to recruit and keep qualified senior managers that will enable us to achieve our core strategic aims and continue to grow our business profitably.

Our broker-dealer and investment advisory business depends on fees generated from the distribution of financial products and advisory fees.

One of our strategic goals is to increase non-interest revenues from fees generated from the distribution of financial products, such as managed accounts, mutual funds, and annuity products. Changes in the structure or amount of fees paid by sponsors of these products could directly affect our non-interest revenue. In addition, if these products experience losses or increased investor redemptions, the revenue we earn on these products may decline.

The ability to attract and keep qualified financial advisors and associates is critical to MP Securities’ continued success.

As we continue to expand our non-interest revenue sources, we will need to expand our team of qualified investment and financial advisors that complement the services we provide to our clients. If we are unable to recruit and keep qualified professionals, we could jeopardize our strategic goal of increasing non-interest income, thereby adversely affecting our net earnings and financial condition.

18

Our systems may experience an interruption or breach in security, which could subject us to increased operating costs as well as litigation and other liabilities.

We rely heavily on communications and information systems to conduct our business, process, send, and store electronic financial information. Any failure, interruption, or breach in security of these systems could result in failures or disruptions in our critical business systems. The secure transmission of confidential information over the Internet and other electronic transmission and communication systems is essential to keeping customer confidence in our services. Security breaches, computer viruses, acts of vandalism, and developments in computer capabilities could result in a breach or breakdown of the technology we use to protect customer and investor information and transaction data.

While we have policies and procedures designed to prevent or limit the effect of the possible failure, interruption, or security breach of our information systems, there can be no assurance that any such failure, interruption or security breach will not occur or, if they do occur, that they will be adequately addressed. We rely on third parties in processing our transactions. Any breakdown or failures of their systems or capacity constraints could adversely affect our operations. The occurrence of any failure, interruption, or security breach of our information systems could damage our reputation, result in a loss of a borrower, investor, or customer’s business, or expose us to civil litigation and possible financial liability.

Our critical business systems may fail due to events out of our control, such as:

● unforeseen catastrophic events;

● cyber-attacks;

● human error;

● change in operational practices of our system vendors; or

● unforeseen problems met while implementing major new computer systems or upgrades to existing systems.

These events could potentially result in data loss and adversely affect our ability to conduct our business. As of the date of this Report, to our knowledge, we have not experienced any material impacts relating to cyber-attacks or information system security breaches.

From time to time, we have engaged in transactions with related parties and our policies and procedures on these transactions may be insufficient to address any conflicts of interest that may arise.

Under our code of business conduct, we have set up procedures regarding the review, approval, and ratification of transactions that may give rise to a conflict of interest between

19

us and a related party. A related party is any employee, officer, board member, equity owner, trustee, their immediate family members, other businesses under their control, and other related persons. In the ordinary course of our business operations, we have ongoing relationships and engage in transactions with several related entities. This includes transactions with our equity owners. Conflicts of interest are inherent in any transactions involving credit facilities, funds on deposit with, mortgage loans bought, sold, participated, or serviced in our dealings with our equity owners. While the Company believes that it has taken reasonable measures to mitigate any risks, these procedures may not be sufficient to address conflicts of interest that may arise.

Risks Related to the Financial Services Industry and Financial Markets

The failure of a financial institution in which we deposit our funds could have an adverse impact on our ability to access our short-term source of funds.

In response to recent bank closures by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”), the Company is monitoring its cash investments with various financial institutions and adjusting its short-term liquidity policies to respond to changes in the financial markets. The Company has no funds invested with the banks that the FDIC has closed. The National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund (“NCUSIF”) insures a portion of the Company’s cash held at credit unions and the FDIC insures a portion of cash held by the Company at other financial institutions. Currently, the NCUSIF and FDIC generally insures amounts up to $250,000 per depositor per insured credit union or bank. As of the date of this report, depositors of the banks that have been closed by the FDIC in 2023, have not taken a loss on deposits over the insured limit. To the extent the Company has deposited funds with a credit union or banking institution, then if any of such financial institutions ultimately fail, the Company could lose the amount of deposits over the then current insurance limit. The loss of such funds could reduce the amount cash needed for short term liquidity purposes. See, Note 1 in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements on page F-10 of this Report.

Deterioration of market conditions could negatively affect our business, results of operations, financial condition, and liquidity.

A number of factors that we cannot control affect the market in which we operate. These factors can have a potentially significant, negative impact on our business. These factors include, among other things:

● interest rates and credit spreads;

● inflationary or deflationary economic cycles;

20

● the availability of credit, including the price, terms, and conditions under which it can be obtained;

● loan balances relative to the value of the underlying real estate assets;

● default rates on special purpose mortgage loans for churches and ministries, and the amount of the related losses;

● the actual and perceived state of the real estate markets for church properties and special use facilities;

● deterioration of local, global, and national economic conditions including epidemics or pandemics that may affect the local or global economy; or

● unemployment rates.

Significant declines in the value of real estate related assets, impairment of our borrowers’ ability to repay their obligations, and illiquidity in the markets for real estate related assets can adversely affect our mortgage loan investments, financial condition, and income.

The long-term impact of various external factors such as the COVID-19 pandemic, Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, increasing inflation, and continuing disruption of the global supply chains, and the impact of such factors on our church and ministry loans, cannot be known at this time.

The COVID-19 pandemic caused major disruptions in the U.S. economy and has caused churches, private schools, and ministries to make significant changes in the conduct of their operations, programs and in-person meeting schedules. In addition, Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, increasing inflation, and the disruption of global supply chains are putting strain on the U.S economy and the U.S. consumer. Our business relies, to a significant degree, on the ability of our ministry borrowers to make loan payments on a timely basis. At this time, we cannot know what the long-term impact of these economic stressors on our borrowers and their donors will be. A significant disruption in giving trends resulting from these factors could have a material impact on the timing of loan payments made by our borrowers, our liquidity, loan loss reserves, and our financial condition.

Declining real estate values could harm our operations.

We believe the risks associated with our business are more severe during periods in which an economic slowdown or recession is accompanied by declining real estate values. Declining real estate values often reduce the level of new mortgage loan originations, since borrowers often use increases in the value of their existing properties to support the purchase of, investment in, or renovation of their worship facilities. Borrowers may also have difficulty paying principal and interest on our loans if the real estate economy weakens. Further, declining real estate values significantly increase the likelihood that we

21

will incur losses on our foreclosed assets and on our loans in case of default because the value of our collateral may be insufficient to cover our investment in such assets.

Any sustained period of increased payment delinquencies, foreclosures, or losses could adversely affect both our net interest income from loans as well as our ability to originate, sell, and securitize loans. These events would significantly harm our revenues, results of operations, financial condition, liquidity, and business prospects.

The Company is subject to interest rate risk.

Interest rate fluctuations and shifts in the yield curve may cause losses. Our primary interest rate exposures relate to our mortgage loan investments and floating rate debt obligations. Typically, our loan investments have a fixed interest rate with a five-year interest rate adjustment or maturity date. A portion of our borrowing arrangements with our note investors, however, provides for variable rates of interest that are indexed to short-term borrowing rates or fixed rates on short-term maturities.

Changes in interest rates, including changes in expected interest rates or “yield curves,” affect our business in multiple ways. Changes in the general level of interest rates can affect our net interest income. Net interest income is the difference between the interest income we earn on our interest-earning assets and the interest expense we incur on our interest-bearing liabilities. Changes in the level of interest rates also can affect, among other things, our ability to originate and acquire mortgages, and the market value of our mortgage investments. In the case of a significant rising interest rate environment, default by our mortgage loan obligors could increase our losses and negatively affect our liquidity and operating results.

Our ability to expand the size of our loan portfolio is dependent on our ability to obtain debt financing at rates that supply a positive net spread. We have used borrowing facilities obtained from institutional lenders and relied upon offerings of debt securities in SEC registered offerings and private placement offerings to fund our mortgage loan investments. Our ability to fund future investments will be severely restricted if spreads on debt financing widen or if availability of credit facilities ceases to exist. In addition, an increase in our borrowing costs could decrease the spread we receive on our mortgage loan investments, which could adversely affect our ability to pay interest and redeem the outstanding debt securities as they mature. To mitigate our interest rate risks, we have previously and may in the future enter into interest rate hedging transactions that include, but are not limited to, interest rate caps and interest rate swaps. We cannot guarantee the results of using these types of instruments to mitigate interest rate risks, and as a result, the volatility of interest rates could result in reduced earnings or losses for us.

In addition, increases in interest rates during the term of a loan may adversely affect a borrower’s ability to repay a loan at maturity or to prepay a loan. Our mortgage loans

22

typically have large balloon payments due at maturity. When the loan matures and the balloon payment is due, the borrower must either pay the loan balance or refinance the loan with us or another lender. If interest rates are higher when the loan matures, the borrower’s payment on new financing may be higher. The borrower may not be able to afford the higher debt service hindering their ability to refinance our loan. In addition, the borrower may not be able to refinance the loan because the value of the property has decreased. If a borrower is unable to repay our loan at maturity, we could suffer a loss and we would not be able to reinvest proceeds in assets with higher interest rates, which could adversely affect our business and profitability.

Regulatory compliance failures could adversely affect our reputation, operating business, and core strategic goals.

We rely on publicly offered debt securities to fund a substantial part of our operations. As a result, we are subject to U.S. securities laws, rules, and regulations publicized by the SEC and applicable state securities statutes. Our subsidiary, MP Securities, is subject to oversight from the SEC, FINRA, the Department of Insurance, California’s Department of Financial Protection and Innovation, and securities regulators in the states where MP Securities conducts business. To the extent MP Securities engages in securities and insurance-related activities in a particular state, state securities and insurance administrators will have authority over the activities of our broker-dealer affiliated entity. As a registered broker-dealer and FINRA member, MP Securities must maintain registrations under the securities laws in those states in which it conducts business. The failure to follow obligations imposed by any regulatory authority binding on our subsidiaries or us or to keep any of the required licenses or permits could result in investigations, sanctions, and reputation damage.

Risks Related to Our Mortgage Loan Investments

Our Church mortgage loans are not as liquid as other financial instruments and therefore we may not be able to generate adequate liquidity, or we may have to take a material loss on sale if we needed to liquidate a portion or all of our loan portfolio.

The market for church mortgage loans is specialized and therefore not as liquid as for a residential or commercial loan portfolio. As a result, in the event we need additional liquidity we may have difficulty in disposing of our mortgage loan portfolio quickly or at all. The amount we would realize is dependent on several factors, including the quality and yield of similar mortgage loans and the prevailing financial market and economic conditions. It is possible that we could realize substantially less than the face amount of our mortgage loans, should we be required to sell the loans or pledge them as collateral for debt. Thus, the amount we could realize for the liquidation of our mortgage loan investments is uncertain and unpredictable.

23

We are subject to risks related to prepayment of mortgage loans held in our portfolio, which may negatively affect our business.

Our borrowers may prepay the principal amount of their mortgage loans at any time. There is intense competition from financial institutions that are looking to make commercial loans at competitive rates to qualified borrowers. If a significant number of borrowers refinance their loans with other lenders, our profitability could be adversely affected.

We are subject to the risks associated with loan participations, such as less than full control rights.

We have sold participation interests in loans we have originated and service. We may need the consent of the parties to which we have sold the participation interest to exercise our rights under such loans, including rights with respect to amendment of loan documentation, enforcement proceedings in case of default, and the institution of, and control over, foreclosure proceedings. Similarly, a majority of the participants may be able to take actions to which we object but must comply with if our participation interest represents a minority interest. The lack of full control on participation interests sold may adversely affect our business.

Church revenues fluctuate and may substantially decrease during times of economic hardship and global pandemics, which could adversely affect our operations and financial condition.

To pay their loans, churches depend on revenues from church member contributions. Donations typically fluctuate over time for multiple reasons, including, but not limited to:

● changes in church leadership and church membership;

● local unemployment rates, credit conditions and real estate markets; and

● other local economic conditions, including epidemics or pandemics that may affect the local economy.

When a mortgage loan is made to a church, the senior pastor usually plays a critical role in determining whether the loan will be repaid.

The senior pastor of a church ministry usually performs a critical role in the leadership, management, effectiveness of the church’s governance and conflict of interest practices, and continued viability of the church. A leadership crisis faced by a church that loses its senior pastor due to death, disability, resignation, or retirement can negatively affect the church’s ability to meet its debt service obligations on a mortgage loan we make.

24

If we do not consistently apply sound underwriting standards the quality of our mortgage loans could degrade, which could adversely affect our operations and financial condition.

The quality of the mortgage loans in which we invest depends on the adequacy and implementation of sound underwriting standards as described in our Board adopted loan policy. To achieve our desired loan risk levels we must properly observe and implement our underwriting standards, which may change depending on the state of the economy. There is no assurance that our credit underwriting and loan approval procedures are or will be adequate to address the inherent risks associated with lending. Any failure to manage such risks may materially adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

We may suffer losses on loans due to not having all the material information relating to a potential borrower at the time that we make a credit decision with respect to that potential borrower or at the time we advance funds to the borrower.

There is typically no publicly available information about the churches and ministries to which we lend. Therefore, we must rely on our borrowers and the due diligence efforts of our staff to obtain the information that we consider when making our credit decisions. Our staff partially depends and relies upon the pastoral staff to supply full and correct disclosure of material information concerning their operations and financial condition. We may not have access to all the material information about a particular borrower’s operations, financial condition, and prospects. In addition, a borrower’s accounting records may become poorly kept or organized. The financial condition and prospects of a church may also change rapidly in the current economic environment. In such instances, we may not make a fully informed credit decision, which may lead to a failure or inability to recover our loan in its entirety.

Our loan portfolio is concentrated in specialized purpose mortgage loans and may be more adversely impacted by external market forces than a portfolio that was more diversified.

We are among a limited number of non-bank financial institutions specialized in supplying loans to evangelical churches and church organizations. Church and ministry mortgage loans secured by real properties generally secure our loans and the secondary market for these loans is regional and limited. Our mortgage loan agreements require that the borrower insure the property. This requirement secures the loan against liability and casualty loss. However, certain types of losses, those of a catastrophic nature such as earthquakes, floods or storms, health emergencies such as the COVID-19 pandemic, and losses due to civil disobedience, are either uninsurable or are not economically insurable. If an uninsured loss destroys a property, we could suffer loss of all or a substantial part of our mortgage loan investment.

25

Our loan portfolio is concentrated geographically and may be negatively impacted by downturns in markets that we operate.

As of December 31, 2022, the Company has 12% and 27% of the balance of its loan portfolio located in the states of Illinois and Maryland, respectively. Economic conditions in each of these states could differ in a significant manner from the loan investments we have made in other states and the real estate values which serve as collateral in those two states will depend, to a substantial degree, on the real estate markets in those markets.

We may be unable to recognize or act upon an operational or financial problem with a church in a timely fashion to prevent a loss of our loan to that church.

Our borrowers may experience operational or financial problems that, if not timely addressed by us, could result in a substantial impairment or loss of the value of our loan to the borrower. We may fail to identify problems because our borrowers did not report them in a timely manner or, even if the borrower did report the problem, we may fail to address it quickly enough, or at all. We try to minimize our credit risk through prudent loan approval and monitoring practices in all categories of our lending. However, we cannot assure you that such monitoring and approval procedures will reduce these lending risks. We also cannot assure you that our credit administration personnel, policies, and procedures will properly adapt to changes in economic or any other conditions affecting our borrowers and the quality of our loan portfolio. As a result, we could suffer loan losses that could have a material adverse effect on our revenues, net income, and results of operations.

Our accounting estimates and impairment assumptions may require the Company to record loan impairments that may adversely impact our operations and financial condition.

We make various assumptions and judgments about the collectability of our loan portfolio, including the creditworthiness of our borrowers and the value of the real estate and other assets serving as collateral for the repayment of our loans. If we decide that it is probable that we will not be able to collect all amounts due to us under the terms of a particular loan agreement, we may have to recognize an impairment charge or a loss on the loan unless the value of the collateral securing the loan exceeds the carrying value of the loan.

If our assumptions regarding, among other things, the present value of expected future cash flows or the value of the collateral securing our loans are incorrect or general economic and financial conditions cause one or more borrowers to become unable to make payments under their loans, we may have to recognize impairment charges. These charges could result in a material reduction in earnings in the period in which the loans are determined to be impaired. The impairment may adversely affect, perhaps materially, our financial condition, liquidity, and ability to make debt service payments.

26

Our reserves for loan losses may prove inadequate, which could have a material, adverse effect on us.

Although we regularly evaluate our financial reserves to protect against future losses based on the probability and severity of the losses, there is no guarantee that our assessment of this risk will be adequate to cover any future potential losses. As of December 31, 2022, our allowance for loan loss totaled $1.6 million, or 1.78%, of our total loans.

Unanticipated adverse events may result in reserves that will be inadequate over time to protect against potential future losses. Examples of these adverse events are:

● significant negative changes in the economy;

● events affecting specific assets;

● events affecting specific borrowers;

● mismanaged construction;

● loss of a senior pastor;

● rising interest rates;

● failure to sell properties or assets;

● epidemics or pandemics that may affect the local or global economy; or

● events affecting the geographical regions in which our borrowers or their properties are located.

Maintaining the adequacy of our allowance for loan losses may require that we make significant and unanticipated increases in our provisions for loan losses, which would materially affect our results of operations and capital levels. See the section captioned “Part II, Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in this Report for further discussion related to our process for determining the appropriate level for the allowance for loan losses.

Some of our mortgage loan investments currently are, and in the future may be, non-performing loans or may be restructured, which subject us to increased risks compared to performing loans.

Some of the loans in our mortgage loan portfolio currently are, or in the future may become a non-performing loan. Such loans may become non-performing if the church falls upon financial distress, the community or congregation the church serves suffers financial hardship, or there is adverse change in leadership of the church. These circumstances could result in the borrower being unable to meet its debt service obligations to us. Non-performing loans may require our management team to devote a substantial amount of their resources to workout negotiations and restructuring efforts. These restructuring

27

efforts may involve modifications to the interest rate, extension, or deferral of payments to be made under the loan or other concessions. For restructured loans, a risk still exists that the borrower may not be able or willing to continue the restructured payments or refinance the restructured mortgage at maturity. Our troubled assets could increase significantly if borrowers become delinquent and we are unsuccessful in managing our non-performing assets. This in turn could have a material, unfavorable effect on our results of operations and financial condition. As of December 31, 2022, $6.23 million, or 6.3%, of our total assets, were deemed to be non-performing, as compared to $10.0 million, or 7.8%, of our total assets at December 31, 2021

In the event a borrower defaults on one of our mortgage loan investments, we may need to recover our investment through the sale of the property securing the loan, which may result in credit losses.

In that event, the value of the real property security may prove insufficient to recover the amount of our investment. Even though we may obtain an appraisal of the property at the time we originate the loan, the property’s value could decline because of subsequent events, including:

● uninsured casualty loss (such as an earthquake or flood);

● a decline in the local real estate market;

● undiscovered defects on the property;

● waste or neglect of the property;

● a downturn in demographic and residential trends;

● epidemics or pandemics that may affect the local or global economy;

● environmental hazards;

● a decline in growth in the area in which the property is located; and

● churches and church-related properties are typically not as marketable as more common commercial, retail, or residential properties.

The occurrence of any of these events could severely impair the market value of the security for our mortgage loan investments. In case of a default under a mortgage loan held directly by us, we will bear the risk of loss of principal to the extent of any deficiency between the value of the collateral and the principal and accrued interest of the mortgage loan. Foreclosure of a church mortgage can be an expensive and lengthy process, which could have a significant effect on our expected return on the foreclosed mortgage loan. Such delays can cause the value of the mortgaged property to deteriorate further. The properties also incur operating expenses pending their sale, including property insurance,

28

management fees, security, repairs, and maintenance. Any added expenses incurred could adversely affect our ability to recover the full value of our collateral.

From time to time, we have recorded additional provisions for losses related to real estate assets acquired after we carry out loan foreclosure proceedings. If we take ownership of a property as part of a foreclosure action, we could be required to write down the value of the property if the value of the property declines after we take title to the property. Further deterioration could lead to an increase in non-performing assets and reduced earnings.

Risks of cost overruns and non-completion of the construction or renovation of the mortgage properties securing construction loans we invest in may have a material and adverse effect on our investment.

The renovations, refurbishment, or expansion by a borrower of a mortgage property involves risks of cost overruns and non-completion. Costs of construction or improvements to bring a mortgage property up to standards established for the market position intended for that property might exceed original estimates, possibly making a project uneconomical. Such delays and cost overruns are often the result of events outside both our and the borrower’s control such as material shortages, labor shortages, labor strikes, pandemics, and unexpected delays caused by weather and other acts of nature. In addition, environmental risks and construction defects may cause cost overruns, and completion delays. If the borrower does not complete such construction or renovation in a timely manner, or if it costs more than expected, the borrower may experience a prolonged impairment of the borrower’s revenues impacting their ability to make their payments on our loan.

We are exposed to environmental liabilities with respect to properties to which we take title, which could have an adverse impact on our operations and financial condition.

In the course of our business, we may take title to real estate through foreclosure on one of our mortgage loan investments or otherwise. If we do take title to a property, we could be subject to environmental liabilities with respect to these properties. In such a circumstance, we may be held liable to a governmental entity or to third parties for property damage, personal injury, and investigation and clean-up costs incurred by these parties in connection with environmental contamination. In addition, we may be required to investigate or clean up hazardous or toxic substances, or chemical releases, at a property. The costs associated with investigation or remediation activities could be substantial. If we ever become subject to significant environmental liabilities, our business, financial condition, liquidity, and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.

29

Risks Relating to Our Investor Notes

Unexpected large withdrawals by investors that hold our debt securities can reduce our overall liquidity.

We continue to expand our methods of raising funds, including selling participations in our mortgage loan investments, expanding the sales of our debt securities, and maintaining lines of credit at financial institutions. If this strategy becomes less effective, we will need to find alternative sources of borrowing to finance our operations. Alternative solutions may be selling assets, deleveraging our balance sheet, and reducing operational expenses.

We may face potential claims from certain holders of our 2021 Class A Notes requesting a rescission of their investment made in our Notes.

Under Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), when a prospectus is used more than nine months after the effective date of the registration statement, audited financial statements included in the prospectus must be as of a date not more than sixteen months prior to such use. When the Company filed its Registration Statement on Form S-1, which was declared effective on January 8, 2021, and subsequently filed Supplements to its Prospectus with the SEC, it included language in its Prospectus which was intended to serve as an election made to incorporate future filings of its audited and unaudited financial statements filed on Form 10-K and Form 10-Q as part of its Prospectus.

If the Company failed to make a proper election and include necessary language permitting it to use forward incorporation by reference of subsequently filed Exchange Act reports, certain investors that purchased our 2021 Class A Notes during the period commencing on October 9, 2021 and ending on the date the Company filed a post-effective amendment to its Registration Statement may have a claim for rescission of their investment under Section 5 of the Securities Act based upon a claim that the Prospectus failed to include updated financial statements.

The Company believes that the potential liability for such recission claims is $26.9 million. To the extent that rescission claims arising in connection with the sale of our 2021 Class A Notes during the period commencing October 9, 2021, and ending on the date the Company filed a post-effective amendment to its Registration Statement are initiated and judgments entered, the Company’s liquidity, balance sheet, and statement of cash flows could be materially impacted. In that event, the Company would be required to use its available cash, borrowing capacities, or raise funds from the sale of participation interests and its mortgage loan assets to satisfy these claims.

We depend on repeat purchases by a significant number of investors in our debt securities to finance our business.

A significant percentage of the investors who buy our debt securities roll their matured debt security into a new one. Historically, we have been able to sustain a high rate of renewal investments. If the rate of repeat investments declines, our ability to maintain or grow our asset base could be impaired.

The table below shows the renewal rates of our maturing debt securities over the prior three years:

2022	63	%
2021	55	%
2020	60	%

Some of our investors may be unable to purchase our public offered debt securities due to FINRA’s investor suitability rule.

When handling sales of our investor debt securities, we must comply with FINRA’s “know your customer” and “suitability” rule. Some investors may not qualify under suitability criteria we have established for investors. These suitability eligibility standards help ensure that investors make appropriate investments given the age, investment experience, net worth, need for liquidity; and the mix of the investor’s portfolio.

If MP Securities is unable to offer a potential investor a Class A Certificate that will enable such investor to meet the applicable suitability standards, we will need to find other qualified investors to implement our strategic objectives.

Price Range of Common Units

There is no public market for our Class A Units and Series A Preferred Units. As of December 31, 2022, a total of 146,522 Class A Units were issued, with 11 holders of record, and a total of 117,100 Series A Preferred Units were issued, with 11 holders of record.

Sale of Equity Securities by Issuer

None.

Purchases of Equity Securities by Issuer

None.

Dividends and Distributions

The Series A Preferred Unit holders are entitled to receive two types of dividend distributions. First, they are entitled to receive a quarterly cash dividend at the rate of one-year LIBOR plus 25 basis points (the “Series A Dividend”). Payment of the Series A Dividend will have priority over all other distributions to equity owners. In addition, the Company must pay any accrued and undistributed Series A Dividend before we can distribute other dividends.

Our Series A Preferred Unit holders are also entitled to receive 10% of our net profits after subtracting the amount of quarterly Series A Dividends paid earned for any fiscal year. This payment will be made to holders of the Series A Preferred Units on a pro rata basis. We accrued $13 thousand and $178 thousand in net profits to distribute to our Series A Preferred Units holders for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. This increased the amount of distributions declared on our Series A Preferred Units for the fourth quarters of 2022 and 2021 by $0.018 per unit and $1.521 per unit, respectively.

33

The remaining balance of any profits will be allocated to all holders of our Class A Units based on their ownership percentage. For 2022, we made no distributions to the holders of our Class A Units.

During December 31, 2022 and 2021, we declared distributions on our Series A Preferred Units as follows:

SERIES A UNITS

	Distributions Declared per Unit
Quarter	2022		2021
First	$	0.580	$	0.131

Total distributions per unit	$	4.276	$	2.109

In the event of a loss, our operating agreement provides that losses will be allocated first to the holders of common units and then to the Series A Preferred Units holders until their respective capital accounts have been reduced to zero. If the capital accounts of the members cannot offset the entire loss, the balance will be allocated, pro rata, to the holders of common units in proportion to their respective ownership interest in our common equity units.

Equity Compensation Plans

None.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion on our financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto in this Report beginning at page F-1.

OVERVIEW

We generate our revenue primarily through our church lending portfolio and secondarily through fees generated from our investment and insurance products and services. While we generate most of our revenue through interest income, our strategic aim is to diversify our revenue sources so that non-interest income becomes a larger percentage of total income. While seeking to grow our non-interest income, we also strive to grow our loan portfolio to increase total income for the Company. While we expect to generate most of our future growth through church lending, we intend to diversify our lending to mitigate concentration risk. Producing revenue from multiple sources as well as growing total income may reduce the risk to the Company if we experience adverse economic or market conditions. We also strive to improve operating efficiency by increasing the revenue generated for each dollar of expense incurred to run the business, which helps us improve our capital position. Increased capital helps mitigate risk in economic down cycles. In addition, we reduce risk to our lending revenue by improving the quality of our loan portfolio, assessing the financial strength of our borrowers, and collaborating with borrowers to restructure, refinance, and/or liquidate these investments when necessary.

To continue to achieve our goals, protect the investment made by our note holders, and maximize the value of our equity holders’ investment, we will focus on:

● maintaining adequate liquidity levels;

● expanding the sale of our investor debt securities;

● growing our balance sheet by originating profitable new loans;

● growing our non-interest income from our broker-dealer services and loan servicing and products;

● investing in technology to enhance our customer experience while creating operating efficiencies;

● outsource certain operations to allow for scalable growth and provide an enhanced customer experience;

35

● growing our client base;

● expanding our broker-dealer sales staff;

● serving the needs of credit union and CUSO clients through revenue producing strategic partnerships;

● finding new strategic partnership opportunities with like-minded organizations that can help grow our client base and generate revenue;

● managing the size and cost structure of our business to match our operating environment and capital funding efforts;

● strengthening our capital through growth in earnings; and

● strengthening our loan portfolio through aggressive and proactive efforts to resolve problems in our non-performing assets;

COVID-19 and inflation’s impact on the Company’s Business

In 2022, the effects of the worldwide pandemic continued to lessen in severity and indicators of economic activity have continued to strengthen as jobs, consumer spending, manufacturing, and other indicators rebound from their weakest levels. However, rising prices have become a concern and as a result, the Federal Reserve Board (“FRB”) raised the fed funds target rate up from 0.00% - 0.25% at the beginning of the year to 4.25% - 4.50% as of December 31, 2022. Additionally, the FRB’s median projection of the fed funds rate at the end of 2023 is 5.1%, indicating the committee expects to continue to increase rates as they attempt to curtail inflation. Due to these factors, we believe that economic uncertainty remains high and could negatively impact our borrowers and financial results.

Summary of Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that influence amounts reported in the financial statements. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses generated during the reporting period. Various elements of our accounting policies are inherently subject to estimation techniques, valuation assumptions, and other subjective assessments.

Management has identified certain accounting policies that rely on judgments, estimates, and assumptions and are critical to an understanding of our financial statements. These policies govern such areas as the allowance for credit losses and the fair value of financial instruments and foreclosed assets. Management believes the judgments, estimates, and assumptions used in the accounting policies governing these areas are appropriate based on

36

the factual circumstances at the time they were made. However, given the sensitivity of the financial statements to these critical accounting policies, changes in management’s judgments, estimates, and assumptions could result in material differences in our results of operations or financial condition. Further, subsequent changes in economic or market conditions could have a significant impact on these estimates as well as on our financial condition and operating results in future periods.

The determination of the allowance for loan losses involves critical estimates made in accordance with GAAP. Further on in Management’s Discussion and Analysis, we provide additional details regarding the factors involved in determining the allowance, the nature of the uncertainty involved in the calculation, and the impact of the allowance on the Company’s financial position and results of operations.

Summary of Financial Performance

For the year ended December 31, 2022, we earned net income of $627 thousand. While net income decreased by $1.2 million over the prior year, owners’ equity increased by $115 thousand, resulting in the highest total amount of members’ equity in the Company’s history. The main driver of the net income in 2022, as well as in 2021, was a $2.5 million gain on debt extinguishment realized by using cash to pay down our remaining term debt at a discount. With the term-debt fully paid off we do not expect to receive revenue from debt extinguishment in the future.

Non-interest expense increased by $786 thousand as salaries and benefits increased by $726 thousand due to a one-time Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (“SERP”) expense of $600 thousand. For more information on the SERP, please see Note 15,

37

Retirement Plans in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements. Conversely, net interest income after provision for loan loss decreased by $429 thousand due to a reduction in the size of our loan portfolio. Management evaluated the opportunity to retire our term debt facility at a discount and determined that the gains resulting from the payoff would be more beneficial than holding the cash used to make the pay down. By making those payments on our own term debt facility, the Company recognized $7.3 million in gains from debt extinguishment over the three-year period ended December 31, 2022. Cash used to make those payments was derived primarily from reducing our loan portfolio through loan participations sold as well as proceeds received from the early payoff of some of our loans when borrowers refinanced a loan with another lender. By making those payments on our term debt facility using cash investments, the Company has a smaller loan portfolio that will produce less net interest income going forward. With this strategy completed, in 2023 and going forward, the Company plans to increase our loan portfolio.

Progress on Strategic Objectives

In 2022, we continued making progress towards our strategic objectives of diversifying our revenue streams, improving the quality of our loan portfolio, strengthening capital, and improving customer experience. The following discussion focuses on each of these strategic objectives.

Diversified revenue streams

The Company’s management team believes that it will be able to use its capabilities in lending, servicing, and providing investment advisory services to supplement its net interest income with fee income. Our primary sources of recurring non-interest income are:

● Revenue from our broker-dealer, investment advisory, and insurance product sales: While revenue from this source decreased slightly by $40 thousand in 2022, the Company continues to develop new networking agreements and is building infrastructure it believes will help grow this business.

● Loan participation sales: We sold $3.7 million in 2022 as compared to $14.1 million in loan participation interests during the year ended December 31, 2021. The decrease in loan participation sales was due to the Company not needing to generate liquidity due to the high liquidity levels during the year. For 2023, we do not expect to sell participation loans other than for risk mitigation purposes, as our focus is on increasing our on-book loan portfolio.

● Loan servicing fee income: Our loan portfolio generated $153 thousand in servicing income in 2022 as compared to $189 thousand in 2021. We do not expect loan servicing income to be a material revenue source for the Company in the future due to the focus on growing our on-book portfolio.

38

Loan portfolio quality

Historically, when the Company has reported a net loss for the year, the primary reason for the loss has been due to losses on our loan investments or from reserves taken on our allowance for loan losses. In subsequent years, the Company has benefited from recoveries when the loans paid off, the Company disposed of the collateral properties, or when the Company sold the promissory notes or loans. Therefore, the resolution of non-performing loans or assets may contribute either positively or negatively to the Company’s financial results. During the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company sold a REO property which resulted in a gain on sale of $44 thousand. During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company did not have any gains or losses related to nonperforming assets or loans sold.

We continue to carefully watch our loan portfolio and work with borrowers to minimize losses on our mortgage loan investments. The Company can often find a solution for borrowers who are in distress, but who are willing and able to work out a compatible solution. During the year ended 2022 our classified loans decreased by $3.8 million during the year to $5.9 million at December 31, 2022. This decrease is primarily due to a $3.7 million loan that we restructured in 2021 and was returned to performing status during the year ended December 31, 2022.

As part of our strategic decision to reposition our loan portfolio, we have continued to focus on originating lower principal balance loans made to borrowers where we can achieve yields that are more favorable. This allows us to avoid deteriorating our margins while reducing overall risk exposure to any one borrower. However, we also have originated larger loans when we are able to find participants to buy a participation interest in the loan. Servicing loan participations sold generates servicing fee income while allowing us to reduce our risk exposure on the loan. We believe we have found a good mix in loan size that allows us to take advantage of quality lending opportunities. Our average net loan balance (recorded balance) was $719 thousand on December 31, 2022. We believe the relationships we have formed with credit unions throughout the United States will enable us to sell loan participation interests as necessary to mitigate risk by selling larger loans.

Strengthening Capital

For 2022, our strategy shifted from maintaining our balance sheet size to strengthening capital through the gains on the discounted term debt payoff. With debt retirement completed in 2022, our strategy going forward will be to grow our balance sheet and our loan portfolio to increase our total revenue. We intend to rely on the sale of our investor notes to fund the growth of our on-book loan portfolio.

39

Improving Customer Experience

In 2022, the Company planned to increase our investment in personnel, technology, and infrastructure to continue to expand our products and services and well as improve our customer’s digital experience. During the year we made some progress on those objectives by investing in new technology and personnel. In 2023, we expect to make additional investments in those areas, as well as improve our operating efficiency by outsourcing a component of our loan servicing while growing our balance sheet. We believe these activities will give us a more efficient operation going forward while. More importantly, we believe this will create a better customer experience.

Financial Condition

The following discussion compares the results of operations for the twelve months ended December 31, 2022, and 2021 and should be read in conjunction with the accompanying consolidated financial statements and notes thereto.

General

Total assets decreased by 22% due to the paydown of the term-debt described earlier. Loans receivable decreased 13% due to receiving $15.9 million in principal collections on loans receivable. We used the funds received from the loans receivable as well as our cash to payoff our term-debt.

Loan Portfolio

Our loan portfolio provides the majority of our revenue; however, it also presents the most risk to future earnings through both interest rate risk and credit risk. Additional information regarding risk to our loans is included in “Part I, Item 1A, Risk Factors”.

41

Our portfolio consists mostly of loans made to evangelical churches and ministries with approximately 99.4% real estate secured loans. The loans in our portfolio carried a weighted average interest rate of 6.46% as of December 31, 2022 and 6.21% as of December 31, 2021.

Included in the table above are 63 adjustable-rate loans totaling $45.2 million in gross loans receivable, or 52% of the total balance. Adjustable-rate loans reduce the interest rate risk compared to fixed rate loans with similar cash flow characteristics.

Non-performing Assets

Non-performing assets include:

● non-accrual loans;

● loans 90 days or more past due and still accruing;

● restructured loans, except for loans changed in a troubled debt restructuring that were subsequently classified as performing due to the borrowers demonstrated ability to perform on the restructured terms (typically a minimum of six months); and

● foreclosed assets.

Non-accrual loans are loans on which we have stopped accruing interest. Restructured loans are loans in which we have granted the borrower a concession on the interest rate or

42

the original repayment terms due to financial distress. Foreclosed assets are real properties for which we have taken title and possession upon the completion of foreclosure proceedings.

We closely watch these non-performing assets on an ongoing basis. Management evaluates the potential risk of loss on these loans and foreclosed assets by comparing the book balance to the fair value of any underlying collateral or the present value of projected future cash flows, as applicable.

From time to time, we determine that certain non-accrual loans are collateral-dependent. We consider a loan to be collateral-dependent, when we believe the repayment of principal will involve the sale or operation of the loan collateral. For these loans, we record any interest payment we receive in one of two methods. If the Company believes that the recorded investment of the loan is fully collectable, we will recognize income on the interest payment received on a cash basis. If we believe that the recorded investment is not fully collectable, we will record any interest payment we receive towards reduction of the principal balance of the loan. For non-collateral-dependent loans that are on non-accrual status, we generally recognize income on a cash basis, although may record interest payments against principal in certain situations.

We have seven performing restructured loans on accrual status as of December 31, 2022. The Company restructured four loans during the year ended December 31, 2022, but all made payments according to the terms of the restructure and were deemed performing as of the end of the year. All of the loans that were considered non-performing as of December 31, 2022 had already been classified as non-performing at December 31, 2021. There were no new loans that the Company classified as non-performing during the year ended December 31, 2022.

Allowance for Loan Losses

We keep an allowance for loan losses that we consider adequate to cover both the inherent risk of loss associated with the loan portfolio as well as the risk associated with specific loans.

General reserves are allowances taken to address the inherent risk of loss in the loan portfolio. We analyze several factors to figure out the amount of general reserve. We weigh these factors based on the level of risk and loss potential. These factors include, among others:

● changes in lending policies and procedures, including changes in underwriting standards and collection;

● changes in national, regional, and local economic and industry conditions, including pandemics, that affect the collectability of the portfolio;

● changes in the volume and severity of past due loans, the volume of non-accrual loans, and the volume and severity of adversely classified loans;

● changes in the value of the collateral;

● the effect of credit concentrations; and

44

● the rate of defaults on loans modified as troubled debt restructurings within the previous twelve months.

In addition, we include added general reserves if the loan is a junior lien or unsecured loan. We segregate our loans into pools based on risk rating to increase the accuracy when deciding the factors potential impact on our portfolio. We weigh the risk factors based upon the quality of the loans in the class. In general, we give risk factors a higher weight for lower quality loans, which increases the general reserves on these loans. We evaluate these factors on a quarterly basis to ensure that we have addressed the inherent risks of our loans.

We also examine our entire loan portfolio regularly to find individual loans that we believe have a greater risk of loss than decided by the general reserves. These are found by examining current and historic delinquency reports, checking collateral value, and performing a periodic review of borrower financial statements. For loans that are collateral-dependent, management first figures out the amount of the loan investment at risk. We figure out the loan investment at risk by calculating the difference between the unpaid principal balance less any discounts and the collateral value less any estimated selling costs. We then reserve for the total amount of the loan investment at risk. For impaired loans that are not collateral-dependent, we will record an impairment based on the present value of expected future cash flows. At a minimum, we review loans that carry a specific reserve quarterly. However, we will adjust our reserves more often if we receive additional information regarding the loan’s status or its underlying collateral.

Finally, for non-collateral-dependent trouble debt restructurings we use a net present value method for the allowance calculation. We figure out these reserves by calculating the net present value of payment streams we expect to receive from a restructured loan compared to what we would have received from the loan according to its original terms. We then discount these expected cash flows at the original interest rate on the loan. Management records these reserves at the time of the restructuring. We report the change in the present value of cash flows attributable to the passage of time as interest income.

The process of establishing an adequate allowance for loan losses involves judgement on the part of management. Our aim is to keep the allowance at a level that compensates for losses that may arise from unknown conditions. However, the allowance is a critical accounting estimate that is based on several of management’s assumptions and as a result, realized losses may differ from current estimates made by management.

Investor Notes Payable

Our investor notes payable (“investor notes”) are debt securities sold under both publicly registered and private placement security offerings. Over the last several years, we have expanded the number of investors in our debt securities, and we have broadened the type of investors we serve by building relationships with other faith-based organizations which has allowed us to offer our investor notes to these organizations and their clients. Concurrently, MP Securities and its staff of financial advisors have increased our customer base through marketing efforts made to individual investors. Our net investor notes payable increased by $2.4 million during the year ended December 31, 2022. The balance sheet presents our investor notes net of debt issuance costs. Debt issuance costs as of December 31, 2022 totaled $58 thousand.

The balances of our outstanding investor notes are as follows (dollars in thousands):

Members’ Equity

During the year ended December 31, 2022, total members’ equity increased by $115 thousand attributable to net income of $627 thousand earned by the Company and offset by dividend distributions of $512 thousand. We did not repurchase or sell any membership equity units during the year ended December 31, 2022.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Holding adequate liquidity requires that sufficient resources be always available to meet our cash flow needs. We use cash to obtain new mortgage loans, make interest payments to

47

our note investors, make payments on our credit facilities, and pay general operating expenses. Our primary sources of liquidity are:

● cash;

● lines of credit;

● sales of investor notes;

● payments of principal and interest on loans;

● net income from operations; and

● loan sales.

Our management team regularly prepares cash flow forecasts that we rely upon to ensure that we have sufficient liquidity to conduct our business. While we believe that these expected cash inflows and outflows are reasonable, we can give no assurances that our forecasts or assumptions will prove to be correct. Management believes that we hold adequate sources of liquidity to meet our liquidity needs and have the means to generate more liquidity if necessary.

While our liquidity sources that include cash, lines of credit, and net cash from operations are generally available on an immediate basis, our ability to sell mortgage loan assets and raise additional debt or equity capital is less certain and less immediate. Material liquidity events that would adversely affect our business include, but are not limited to, the following:

● we become unable to continue offering our investor notes in public and private offerings for any reason;

● we incur sudden withdrawals by multiple investors in our investor notes;

● a substantial portion of our investor notes that mature during the next twelve months is not renewed; or

● we are unable to obtain capital from sales of our mortgage loan assets or other sources.

Withdrawal requests made by holders of high dollar notes can also adversely affect our liquidity. We believe that our available cash, operating lines of credit, cash flow from operations, net interest income, and other fee income will be sufficient to meet our cash needs. Should our liquidity needs exceed our available sources of liquidity, we believe we could sell a part of our mortgage loan investments at par as well as sell investor notes to

48

raise more cash. However, we also must keep adequate collateral, consisting of loans receivable and cash, to secure our lines of credit and any secured notes. We have reduced this risk in the last three years due to the term-debt paydowns described in this Report. The Company now has more loans available to sell that are not encumbered by being pledged as collateral on the borrowing facilities.

Our Board of Managers approves our liquidity policy. The policy sets a minimum liquidity ratio and has a contingency protocol if our liquidity falls below the minimum. Our liquidity ratio was 11% at December 31, 2022, which is above the minimum set by our policy.

Growing Liquidity Sources

In response to the economic uncertainty created from the COVID-19 pandemic, management began to generate liquidity by selling participation interests in its loans receivable during 2020 and throughout 2021. In 2022, the Company moderated this strategy based on its current and expected near term liquidity needs. During the period ended December 31, 2022, we generated $3.7 million in cash from the sale of loan participation interests. When we sell a loan participation interest, this strategy will allow the Company to fund loans that are larger than the amount management prefers to keep on our balance sheet. We limit the size of loans we hold on the balance sheet to limit the risk in event the loan becomes non-performing. An additional liquidity tool we use in conjunction with our loan participation sales is a $5.0 million warehouse line of credit (“KCT LOC”) with Kane County Teachers Credit Union (“KCT”). We must repay each advance within one hundred twenty (120) days after receiving the funds. As of December 31, 2022, we had no outstanding balance on the KCT LOC.

The Company also has two other revolving lines of credit. The Company has a revolving $5.0 million short-term demand credit facility (“ACCU LOC”) with America’s Christian Credit Union. The ACCU LOC has a one-year term with a maturity date of September 23, 2023. As of December 31, 2022, we had an outstanding balance of $3.0 million on this facility. The Company does not have any restrictions on how the funds may be used for this facility. We also have a $5.0 million short-term demand credit facility with KCT. The Company can use this operating line as needed and it has a one-year term with a maturity date of June 6, 2023. As of December 31, 2022, we had no outstanding balance on this operating line of credit.

Debt Securities

The sale of our debt securities contributes significantly to funding our mortgage loan investments. Through sales of our publicly offered debt securities and privately placed investor notes, we expect to fund new loans. We also use the cash we receive from our debt securities sales to fund general operating activities.

49

As of December 31, 2022, our investor debt securities had future maturities during the following twelve-month periods ending December 31, (dollars in thousands):

2023	$	23,682
2024		17,574
2025		15,211

2027		8,701
		79,158
Debt Issuance Costs		58
Notes payable, net of debt issuance costs	$	79,100

Historically, we have been successful in generating reinvestments by our debt security holders when the notes they hold mature. The table below shows the renewal rates of our maturing notes over the last three years.

2022	63	%
2021	55	%
2020	60	%

During the years ended December 31, 2021, and December 31, 2022, we worked with our investors to reduce larger investor notes that were maturing to reduce the concentration risk of any one investor not renewing a note. We were able to replace these notes with funds from a larger number of investors. This intentional reduction of concentration risk reduced the renewal rates in 2021 and 2022. However, as discussed, our investor debt securities increased by $2.4 million during the year ended December 31, 2022.

Credit Facilities and Other Borrowings

The table below is a summary of the Company’s $3 million in outstanding debt payable as of December 31, 2022 (dollars in thousands):

Nature of Borrowing	Interest Rate	Interest Rate Type	Amount Outstanding		Monthly Payment		Maturity Date	Loan Collateral Pledged		Cash Pledged

ACCU LOC	4.000%	Variable		3,000		—	9/23/2023		6,823		—
ACCU Secured	Various	Fixed		7		—	Various		—		7

On November 4, 2022, the Company used a portion of its liquidity sources to make a final payment of $5.4 million to payoff our term loan credit facility. The ACCU secured borrowing is a loan participation sold with recourse that is classified as a secured borrowing.

Debt Covenants

Under our line of credit agreements and our investor note documents, we are bound to follow certain affirmative and negative covenants. Failure to follow our covenants could

50

require all interest and principal to become due. As of December 31, 2022, we are in compliance with the covenants on our notes payable and lines of credit.

● For more information regarding our investor notes payable, refer to “Note 11. Investor Notes Payable of Part II, Item 8. of this Report.

Results of Operations:

For the year ended December 31, 2022

Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin

Historically, our earnings have primarily depended upon our net interest income.

Net interest income is the difference between the interest income we receive from our loans and cash on deposit (“interest-earning assets”) and the interest paid on our debt securities and term debt.

Net interest margin is net interest income expressed as a percentage of average total interest-earning assets.

The following table provides information, for average outstanding balances for each major category of interest earnings assets and interest-bearing liabilities, the interest income or interest expense, and the average yield or rate for the periods indicated:

Change in net interest income	$	(684)	$	(163)	$	(847)

Net interest income decreased 26% during the year ended December 31, 2022. This decrease in net interest income was primarily due to the lower average balance on interest-earning loans. Lower interest expense on debt partially offset the decrease in earnings on total interest-earning assets.

The decrease in interest income was due to a volume variance on interest-earning loans. The volume variance was due to the lower average loan balances as the Company received loan principal payments as described previously in this Report. The weighted average yield on the loan portfolio decreased 7 basis points from 6.90% to 6.83% during the year ended December 31, 2022.

Total interest expense offset the decrease in interest income by $359 thousand. $729 thousand of this decrease in interest expense was due to a decrease in average balance on term-debt as described previously in this Report. This was offset by an increase of $190 thousand due to a rate variance. The rate variance was due to higher offering rates on new note sales as US Treasury rates increased during the year.

The Company’s net interest margin decreased due to the changes described above. The Company intends to grow its loan portfolio in 2023 and beyond in order to increase net interest income.

Provision

In 2022, the Company recorded a credit to provision for loan losses due to lower average loan balances and recovery on a non-performing loan.

Non-interest income

Non-interest income was mostly unchanged in 2022 compared to 2021. The Company recorded a $2.5 million and a $2.4 million gain on debt extinguishment for the years ended December 31, 2022, and 2021, respectively. With our term-loan fully paid off we do not expect to receive revenue from this source going forward. Therefore, we intend to grow our loan portfolio to increase our net interest income in 2023.

Non-interest expenses

The increase in non-interest expenses was due primarily to a one-time SERP expense of $600 thousand for the year ended December 31, 2022, compared to December 31, 2021. For more information on the SERP, please see Note 15, Retirement Plans in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Net interest income decreased 15% during the year ended December 31, 2021. This decrease in net interest income was due primarily due to lower average balance on interest-earning loans. Lower interest expense on notes payable and term-debt partially offset the decreased earnings as explained below.

Of the $1.3 million decrease in interest income, $1.2 million was due to a volume variance on interest-earning loans. The volume variance was due to the lower average loan balances as the Company sold loan participation interests and received loan principal payments as described previously in this Report. The weighted average rate on the loan portfolio decreased 34 basis points from 6.55% to 6.21% during the year ended December 31, 2021. The portfolio rate decreased as new lower rate loans replaced higher rate loans that paid off.

Total interest expense offset the decrease in interest income by $727 thousand. $664 thousand of this decrease in interest expense was due to a decrease in average balance on term-debt as described previously in this Report.

The Company's net interest margin increased despite the decrease in overall net interest income because the Company’s balance sheet had a higher percentage of its interest-earning assets invested in higher yielding interest-earning loans.

Provision

Net interest income after provision for loan losses decreased by $509 thousand for the year ended December 31, 2021. The provision expense decreased by $66 thousand for the year ended December 31, 2021, as compared to December 31, 2020. The decrease in the

56

provision is due to the lower general reserve needed on the smaller average loan balance in 2021 compared to 2020.

Non-interest income

The increase in non-interest income shown above was primarily due to higher income on broker-dealer commissions and fees in 2021 compared to 2020. By expanding relationships with other credit unions and strategic partners that share an interest in providing investment, retirement, insurance and wealth planning options that align with Christian stewardship principles, we were able to expand the number of clients that we serve and increase the income generated from assets under management and non-interest income bearing sources. This higher income was due to stock market valuation growth as well as expanding our client base and increasing the volume of our revenue producing transactions. Other lending income increased by $41 thousand during the year ended December 31, 2021, due to the growing our total participation interests sold and serviced by $8.1 million during the year.

Non-interest expenses

The decrease in non-interest expenses of $88 thousand was due primarily to a decrease in staff for the year ended December 31, 2021, compared to December 31, 2020.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Members

Ministry Partners Investment Company, LLC

Brea, California

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Ministry Partners Investment Company, LLC and its subsidiaries (the Company) as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the related consolidated statements of income, members’ equity, and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes to the consolidated financial statements (collectively, the financial statements). In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Critical Audit Matter

The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current-period audit of the consolidated financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved especially challenging, subjective or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.

Allowance for Loan Losses

As more fully described in Notes 1 and 4 to the Company’s consolidated financial statements, the allowance for loan losses represents losses that are estimated to have occurred. The allowance for loan losses is based on collectability of the loans in light of historical experience, the nature and volume of the loan portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrower’s ability to repay, estimated value of any underlying collateral, and prevailing economic conditions. The allowance consists of allocated and general components. The allocated component relates to specific allowances on loans that are classified as impaired. The general component relates to loans that are not classified as impaired and is based on historical charge-off experience and the qualitative factors for each class of loans with similar risk characteristics. Qualitative factors include general conditions in economy; loan portfolio composition; delinquencies; changes in underwriting policies; credit administration practices; and experience, ability and depth of lending management, among other factors. Management discloses that this evaluation is inherently subjective, as it requires estimates that are susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available.

We identified the valuation of the allowance for loan losses as a critical audit matter. Auditing the allowance for loan losses involves a high degree of subjectivity in evaluating management’s estimates, such as evaluating management’s assessment of economic conditions and other qualitative or environmental factors, evaluating the adequacy of specific allowances associated with impaired loans, and assessing the appropriateness of loan grades.

The primary procedures we performed to address this critical audit matter included:

● Testing of completeness and accuracy of the information utilized in the calculation of the allowance for loan losses;

● Evaluating the qualitative adjustments to historical loss rates, including assessing the basis for the adjustments and the reasonableness of the significant assumptions;

F-2

● Testing the allowance model for computational accuracy;

● Assessing the reasonableness of specific allowances on certain impaired loans;

● Evaluating the overall reasonableness of significant assumptions used by management;

● Testing the assignment of loan risk ratings;

● Evaluating the accuracy and completeness of disclosures in the consolidated financial statements.

MINISTRY PARTNERS INVESTMENT COMPANY, LLC

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1. Nature of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Nature of Business

Throughout these notes to consolidated financial statements, we refer to Ministry Partners Investment Company, LLC and its subsidiaries as “the Company.” The Company was formed in California in 1991. The Company’s primary operations are financing commercial real property secured loans and providing investment services for the benefit of evangelical churches, ministries, and individuals. The Company funds its operations primarily through the sale of debt securities.

The Company’s wholly-owned subsidiaries are:

● Ministry Partners Funding, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“MPF”);

● MP Realty Services, Inc., a California corporation (“MP Realty”);

● Ministry Partners Securities, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“MP Securities”); and

● Ministry Partners for Christ, Inc., a not-for-profit Delaware corporation (“MPC”).

The Company formed MPF in 2007 and then deactivated the subsidiary on November 30, 2009. In December 2014, the Company reactivated MPF to enable it to serve as collateral agent for loans held as collateral for its Secured Investment Certificates.

The Company formed MP Realty in November 2009, and obtained a license to operate as a corporate real estate broker through the California Department of Real Estate on February 23, 2010. MP Realty has conducted limited operations to date.

The Company formed MP Securities on April 26, 2010 to provide investment and financial planning solutions for individuals, churches, charitable institutions, and faith-based organizations. MP Securities acts as the selling agent for the Company’s public and private placement notes.

The Company formed MPC on December 28, 2018 to be used exclusively for religious and charitable purposes within the meaning of Section 501(c)(3) of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (“IRC”). MPC is a not-for-profit corporation formed and organized under Delaware law. MPC makes charitable grants to Christian educational organizations, and provides accounting, consulting,

F-8

and financial expertise to aid evangelical Christian ministries. On August 23, 2019, the Internal Revenue Service granted MPC tax-exempt status as a private foundation under Section 501(c)(3) of the IRC. The MPC Board of Directors approved its first charitable grants during the year ended December 31, 2020.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Ministry Partners Investment Company, LLC and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. Management eliminates all significant inter-company balances and transactions in consolidation.

Conversion to LLC

Effective December 31, 2008, the Company converted from a corporation organized under California law to a California limited liability company. After this conversation, the separate existence of Ministry Partners Investment Corporation ceased and the entity continued by operation of law under the name Ministry Partners Investment Company, LLC. As an LLC, a group of managers provides oversight of the Company’s affairs. The managers have full, exclusive, and complete discretion, power, and authority to oversee the management of Company affairs. An Operating Agreement governs the Company’s management structure and governance procedures.

Risks and Uncertainties

COVID 19, a global pandemic, adversely impacted the broad economy, affecting most industries, including businesses, schools, hospitality-, and travel-based employers, and disrupted the supply and distribution networks that deliver products to the consuming public. The process of recovery from the pandemic by U.S. churches, ministries, and faith-based organizations that the Company serves could have a material financial impact on the Company. If declining in-person attendance at churches and faith-based organizations continues as churches and ministries adjust to the long-term effects of the pandemic, charitable gifts and contributions made to ministries and churches could be adversely affected.

In accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) and interagency regulatory guidance issued in March 2020, loans that were modified under the terms of our COVID 19 Deferral Assistance Program were not considered troubled debt restructurings to the extent that they met the terms of such guidance under Section 4013 of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”). The CARES Act guidance applies to modifications made between March 1, 2020, and the earlier of January 2, 2022, or sixty (60) days after the end of the COVID 19 national emergency, as stipulated by the Consolidated Appropriations Act signed into law on December 31, 2020. The Company has not restructured a loan under the COVID 19 Deferral Assistance Program since the year ended December 31, 2021 and does not expect to use the program in the future.

F-9

In addition, Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, increasing inflation, and the disruption of global supply chains are putting strain on the U.S economy and the U.S. consumer. While it is not possible to know the full extent of the long-term impact of COVID 19 or these other current events, the Company is disclosing potentially material factors that could impact our business of which it is aware.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash equivalents include time deposits and all highly liquid debt instruments with original maturities of three months or less. The Company had demand deposits and money market deposit accounts as of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

The National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund insures a portion of the Company’s cash held at credit unions and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insures a portion of cash held by the Company at other financial institutions. The Company holds cash deposits that may exceed insured limits. Management does not expect to incur losses in these cash accounts.

The Company maintains cash accounts with Royal Bank of Canada Dain Rauscher (“RBC Dain”) as part of its clearing agreement for its securities-related activities, and with the Central Registration Depository (“CRD”) for regulatory purposes in connections with its investment advisory and securities-related business. The Company also maintains cash in an account with America’s Christian Credit Union (“ACCU”) as collateral for its secured borrowings. The Company classifies these accounts as restricted cash on its balance sheet.

Certificates of Deposit

Certificates of deposit include investments in certificates of deposit held at financial institutions that carry original maturities of greater than three months. The Company had $1.3 million in certificates with terms greater than three months as of December 31, 2022. The Company had no certificates of deposit with original maturities of greater than three months at December 31, 2021.

Use of Estimates

The Company’s creation of consolidated financial statements that conform to United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP") requires management to make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. These estimates govern areas such as the allowance for credit losses and the fair value of financial instruments and foreclosed assets. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

F-10

Investments in Joint Venture

In 2016, the Company entered into a joint venture agreement to develop and sell property we acquired as part of a Deed in Lieu of Foreclosure agreement reached with one of our borrowers. The joint venture owns a property located in Santa Clarita, California.

The Company accounts for its investment in the joint venture using the equity method of accounting. Under this method, the Company records its proportionate share of the joint venture’s net income or loss in the statement of operations.

On a periodic basis, or whenever events or circumstances arise that would necessitate analysis, management analyzes the Company’s investment in the joint venture for impairment. In this analysis, management compares the carrying value of the investment to the estimated value of the underlying real property. The Company records any impairment charges as a valuation allowance against the value of the asset. Management records these valuation changes as realized gains or losses on investment on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. The Company determined that the investment in the joint venture was not impaired as of December 31, 2022.

Other Investments

In June 2022, MP Securities purchased two ten-year fixed annuities from insurance companies. These annuities each carry unique features, including guaranteed fixed income components, variable income components, premium bonuses, and potential withdrawal charges. The Company carries these investments at cost and adjusts for guaranteed income when such income is realized. The principal balances of these annuities are guaranteed but are not insured; however, management determined that the annuities were not impaired at December 31, 2022 and does not anticipate losses.

Loans Receivable

The Company reports loans that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future at their outstanding unpaid principal balance adjusted for an allowance for loan losses, deferred loan fees and costs, and loan discounts.

Interest Accrual on Loans Receivable

The Company accrues loan interest income daily. Management defers loan origination fees and costs generated in making a loan. The Company amortizes these fees and costs as an adjustment to the related loan yield using the interest method.

Loan discounts can arise from interest accrued and unpaid which the Company adds to loan principal balances when it restructures the loan. The Company does not accrete discounts to income

F-11

on impaired loans. However, when management determines that a previously impaired loan is no longer impaired, the Company begins accreting loan discounts to interest income over the term of the restructured loan. For loans purchased from third parties, loan discounts include differences between the purchase price and the recorded principal balance of the loan. The Company accretes these discounts to interest income over the term of the loan using the interest method.

Management considers a loan impaired if it concludes that the collection of principal or interest according to the terms of the loan agreement is doubtful. The Company stops the accrual of interest when management determines the loan is impaired.

For loans that the Company places on non-accrual status, management reverses all uncollected accrued interest against interest income. Management accounts for the interest on these loans on the cash basis or cost-recovery method until the loan qualifies for return to accrual status. It is not until all the principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured that the Company returns a loan to accrual status.

Allowance for Loan Losses

The Company sets aside an allowance for loan losses by charging the provision for loan losses account on the Company’s consolidated statements of income. This charge decreases the Company’s earnings. Management charges off the part of loan balances it believes it will not collect against the allowance. The Company credits subsequent recoveries, if any, to the allowance.

Loan Portfolio Segments and Classes

Management separates the loan portfolio into portfolio segments for purposes of evaluating the allowance for loan losses. A portfolio segment is defined as the level at which the Company develops and documents a systematic method for determining its allowance for loan losses. The Company segments the loan portfolio based on loan types and the underlying risk factors present in each loan type. Management periodically reviews and revises such risk factors, as it considers appropriate.

F-12

The Company’s loan portfolio consists of one segment – commercial loans. Management has segregated the loan portfolio into the following portfolio classes:

Loan Class	Class Description
Wholly-Owned First Collateral Position	Wholly-owned loans and the retained portion of loans originated by the Company and sold for which the Company possesses a senior lien on the collateral underlying the loan.
Wholly-Owned Junior Collateral Position	Wholly-owned loans and the retained portion of loans originated by the Company and sold for which the Company possesses a lien on the underlying collateral that is superseded by another lien on the same collateral. This class also contains any loans that are not secured. These loans present higher credit risk than loans for which the Company possesses a senior lien due to the increased risk of loss should the loan default.
Participations First Collateral Position	Participated loans purchased from another financial entity for which the Company possesses a senior lien on the collateral underlying the loan. Loan participations purchased may present higher credit risk than wholly owned loans because disposition and direction of actions regarding the management and collection of the loans must be coordinated and negotiated with the other participants, whose best interests regarding the loan may not align with those of the Company.
Participations Junior Collateral Position	Participated loans purchased from another financial entity for which the Company possesses a lien on the underlying collateral that is superseded by another lien on the same collateral. Loan participations in the junior collateral position loans have higher credit risk than wholly owned loans and participated loans purchased where the Company possesses a senior lien on the collateral. The increased risk is the result of the factors presented above relating to both junior lien positions and participations.

Allowance for Loan Loss Evaluation

Management evaluates the allowance for loan losses on a regular basis. The Company establishes the allowance for loan losses based upon its periodic review of several factors management believes influences the collectability of the loans, including:

● the Company’s loss history;

● the characteristics and volume of the loan portfolio;

● adverse conditions that may affect the borrower’s ability to repay;

● the estimated value of any secured collateral; and

● the current economic conditions.

F-13

This evaluation is subjective, as it requires estimates that are subject to significant revision as more information becomes available.

The allowance consists of general and specific components. The general component covers non-classified loans. Management bases the general reserve on the Company’s loss history adjusted for qualitative factors. These qualitative factors are significant factors management considers likely to cause estimated credit losses associated with the Company’s existing portfolio to differ from its historical loss experience. Management adjusts these factors on an on-going basis, some of which include:

● changes in lending policies and procedures, including changes in underwriting standards and collection;

● changes in national, regional, and local economic and industry conditions that affect the collectability of the portfolio, including the effects of the pandemic;

● changes in the volume and severity of past due loans, the volume of non-accrual loans, and the volume and severity of adversely classified loans;

● changes in the value of the collateral for collateral-dependent loans; and

● the effect of credit concentrations.

Loans that management has classified as impaired receive a specific reserve. For such loans, an allowance is established when the carrying value of that loan is higher than the amount management expects to collect. Management uses multiple approaches to determine the amount the Company expects to collect. These include the discounted cash flow method, using the loan’s underlying collateral value reduced by expected selling costs, or using the observable market price of the impaired loan.

Impairment Analysis

Impaired loans include non-accrual loans, loans 90 days or more past due and still accruing, and restructured loans. Non-accrual loans are loans on which management has discontinued interest accruals. Restructured loans are loans in which the Company has granted the borrower a concession due to financial distress. Concessions are usually a reduction of the interest rate or a change in the original repayment terms.

The Company monitors impaired loans on an ongoing basis as part of management’s loan review and work out process. All loans in the loan portfolio are subject to impairment analysis. The Company reviews its loan portfolio monthly by examining several data points. These include

F-14

reviewing delinquency reports, any new information related to the financial condition of its borrowers, and any new appraisal or other collateral valuation. Through this process, the Company identifies potential impaired loans. Management generally deems a loan is impaired when current facts and circumstances indicate that it is probable a borrower will be unable to make payments according to the loan agreement. If management has not already deemed a loan impaired, it will classify the loan as non-accrual when it becomes 90 days or more past due.

Management considers several factors when determining impairment status. These factors include the loan’s payment status, the value of any secured collateral, and the probability of collecting scheduled payments when due. Management generally does not classify loans that experience minor payment delays or shortfalls as impaired. Management determines the significance of payment delays or shortfalls on a case-by-case basis, taking into consideration all of the circumstances surrounding the loan and the borrower. These circumstances include the length and reasons for the delay, the borrower’s payment history, and the amount of the shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed.

Management measures impairment on a loan-by-loan basis using one of three methods:

● the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate;

● the obtainable market price; or

● the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral-dependent.

Troubled Debt Restructurings

A troubled debt restructuring is a loan for which the Company, for reasons related to a borrower’s financial difficulties, grants a concession to a borrower that the Company would not otherwise consider. A restructuring of a loan usually involves an interest rate modification, extension of the maturity date, payment reduction, or reduction of accrued interest owed on the loan on a contingent or absolute basis.

Management considers loans that it renews at below-market terms to be troubled debt restructurings if the below-market terms represent a concession due to the borrower’s troubled financial condition. The Company classifies troubled debt restructurings as impaired loans. For the loans that are not considered to be collateral-dependent, management measures troubled debt restructurings at the present value of estimated future cash flows using the loan’s effective rate at start of the loan. The Company reports the change in the present value of cash flows related to the passage of time as interest income. If the loan is considered to be collateral-dependent, impairment is measured based on the fair value of the collateral.

F-15

In accordance with industry standards, the Company classifies a loan as impaired if management has modified it as part of a troubled debt restructuring. However, troubled debt restructures, upon meeting certain performance conditions, are eligible to receive non-classified loan ratings (pass or watch) and to be moved out of non-accrual status. These loans continue to be included in total impaired loans but not necessarily in non-accrual or collateral-dependent loans.

The “Interagency Statement on Loan Modifications and Reporting for Financial Institutions Working with Customers Affected by the Coronavirus” was issued by banking regulators on March 22, 2020. This guidance encourages financial institutions to work prudently with borrowers who are or may be unable to meet their contractual payment obligations due to the effects of COVID-19.

Additionally, Section 4013 of the CARES Act further provided that loans modified due to the impact of COVID-19 that would otherwise be classified as TDRs under GAAP are not required to be so classified. Modifications within the scope of this relief were in effect from the period beginning March 1, 2020 until January 1, 2022.

In accordance with this guidance, we offered modifications to borrowers who were both impacted by COVID-19 and current on all principal and interest payments. As of December 31, 2022, the Company had no loans classified as non-TDR loan modifications due to COVID-19.

Loan Charge-offs

Management charges off loans or portions thereof when it determines the loans or portions of the loans are uncollectible. The Company evaluates collectability periodically on all loans classified as “Loans of Lesser Quality.” Key factors management uses in assessing a loan’s collectability are the financial condition of the borrower, the value of any secured collateral, and the terms of any workout agreement between the Company and the borrower. In workout situations, the Company charges off the amount deemed uncollectible due to the terms of the workout, the inability of the borrower to make agreed upon payments, and the value of the collateral securing the loan.

Credit Quality Indicators

The Company has established a loan grading system to assist its management in analyzing and monitoring the loan portfolio. The Company classifies loans it considers lesser quality (“classified loans”) as watch, special mention, substandard, doubtful, or loss assets. The loan grading system is as follows:

Pass:

The borrower has sufficient cash to fund debt services. The borrower may be able to obtain similar financing from other lenders with comparable terms. The risk of default is considered low.

F-16

Watch:

These loans exhibit potential or developing weaknesses that deserve extra attention from credit management personnel. If the developing weakness is not corrected or mitigated, there may be deterioration in the ability of the borrower to repay the debt in the future. Loans graded Watch must be reported to executive management and the Board of Managers. Potential for loss under adverse circumstances is elevated, but not foreseeable. Watch loans are considered pass loans.

Special mention:

These credit facilities exhibit potential or actual weaknesses that present a higher potential for loss under adverse circumstances, and deserve management’s close attention. If uncorrected, these weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the loan at some future date.

Substandard:

Loans and other credit extensions bearing this grade are considered to be inadequately protected by the current sound worth and debt service capacity of the borrower or of any pledged collateral. These obligations, even if apparently protected by collateral value, have well-defined weaknesses related to adverse financial, managerial, economic, ministry, or environmental conditions which have clearly jeopardized repayment of principal and interest as originally intended. Furthermore, there is the possibility that some future loss will be sustained if such weaknesses are not corrected.

Doubtful:

This classification consists of loans that display the properties of substandard loans with the added characteristic that the severity of the weaknesses makes collection or liquidation in full highly questionable or improbable based upon currently existing facts, conditions, and values. The probability of some loss is very high, but because of certain important and reasonably specific factors, the amount of loss cannot be exactly determined. Such pending factors could include merger or liquidation, additional capital injection, refinancing plans, or perfection of liens on additional collateral.

Loss:

Loans in this classification are considered uncollectible and cannot be justified as a viable asset. This classification does not mean the loan has absolutely no recovery value, but that it is neither practical nor desirable to defer writing off this loan even though partial recovery may be obtained in the future.

The Company recognizes two primary types of revenue: interest income and non-interest income.

Interest Income

The Company’s principal source of revenue is interest income from loans, which is not within the scope of ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers and all subsequent amendments to the ASU (collectively, "ASC 606"). Refer to the discussion in “Loans Receivable” above to understand the Company’s recognition of interest income.

Non-interest Income

Non-interest income includes revenue from various types of transactions and services provided to customers. Contracts with customers can include multiple services, which are accounted for as separate “performance obligations” if they are determined to be distinct. Our performance obligations to our customers are generally satisfied when we transfer the promised good or service to our customer, either at a point in time or over time. Revenue from a performance obligation transferred at a point in time is recognized at the time that the customer obtains control over the promised good or service. Revenue from our performance obligations satisfied over time are recognized in a manner that depicts our performance in transferring control of the good or service, which is generally measured based on time elapsed, as our customers simultaneously receive and consume the benefit of our services as they are provided.

Payment for the majority of our services is considered to be variable consideration, as the amount of revenues we expect to receive is subject to factors outside of our control, including market conditions. Variable consideration is only included in revenue when amounts are not subject to significant reversal, which is generally when uncertainty around the amount of revenue to be received is resolved.

Wealth advisory fees

Generally, management recognizes wealth advisory fees over time as the Company renders services to its clients. The Company receives these fees either based on a percentage of the market value of the assets under management, or as a fixed fee based on the services the Company provides to the client. The Company’s delivery of these services represents its related performance obligations. The Company typically collects the wealth advisory fees at the beginning of each quarter from the client’s account. Management recognizes these fees ratably over the related billing period as the Company fulfills its performance obligation. In addition, management recognizes any commissions or referral fees paid related to this revenue ratably over the related billing period as the Company fulfills its performance obligation.

F-18

Investment brokerage fees

Investment brokerage fees arise from the selling, distribution, and trade execution services. The Company’s execution of these services fulfills its related performance obligations.

The Company also offers sales and distribution services, and earns commissions through the sale of annuity and mutual fund products. The Company acts as an agent in these transactions and recognizes revenue at a point in time when the customer executes a contract with a product carrier. The Company may also receive trailing commissions and 12b-1 fees related to mutual fund and annuity products. Management recognizes this revenue in the period when it is earned, estimating the revenue if necessary based on the balance of the investment and the commission rate on the product.

The Company earns and recognizes trade execution commissions on the trade date, which is when the Company fulfills its performance obligation. Payment for the trade execution is due on the settlement date.

Lending fees

Lending fees represent charges earned for services we provide as part of the lending process, such as late charges, servicing fees, and documentation fees. The Company recognizes late charges as earned when they are paid. The Company recognizes revenue on other lending fees in the period in which the Company has performed the service.

Gains on sales of loans receivable

From time to time, the Company sells participation interests in loans receivable that it services. Upon completion of the loan sale, the Company recognizes a gain based on certain factors including the maturity date of the loan, the percentage of the loan sold and retained, and the servicing rate charged to the participant on the sold portion.

Gains on debt extinguishment

Gains on debt extinguishment arise from agreements reached with the Company’s lenders to reduce the principal amount on outstanding debt. The amount of the gain is determined by the difference between the cash paid and the amount of principal and interest that is relieved as stipulated by the agreement.

Gains/losses on sales of foreclosed assets

The Company records a gain or loss from the sale of foreclosed assets when control of the property transfers to the buyer, which generally occurs at the time of an executed deed. When the Company

F-19

finances the sale of a foreclosed asset to the buyer, the Company assesses whether the buyer is committed to perform their obligation under the contract and whether collectability of the transaction price is probable, among other factors. Once these criteria are met, the foreclosed asset is derecognized and the gain or loss on sale is recorded upon the transfer of control of the property to the buyer. In determining the gain or loss on the sale, the Company adjusts the transaction price and related gain (loss) on sale if a significant financing component is present.

Other non-interest income

Other non-interest income includes fees earned based on service contracts the Company has entered into with credit unions. The Company recognizes the revenue monthly based on the terms of the contracts, which require monthly payments for services the Company performs. Other non-interest income also includes realized income and gains on other investments.

Foreclosed Assets

Management records assets acquired through foreclosure or other proceedings at fair market value less estimated costs of disposal. Management determines the fair value at the date of foreclosure, which establishes a new cost for the asset. After foreclosure, the Company carries the asset at the lower of cost or fair value, less estimated costs of disposal. Management evaluates these real estate assets regularly to ensure that the recorded amount is supported by the current fair value and, if necessary, ensuring that valuation allowances reduce the carrying amount to fair value less estimated costs of disposal. Revenue and expense from the operation of the Company’s foreclosed assets and changes in the valuation allowance are included in net expenses from foreclosed assets. When the Company sells the foreclosed property, it recognizes a gain or loss on the sale equal to the difference between the net sales proceeds received and the carrying amount of the property.

Transfers of Financial Assets

Management accounts for transfers of financial assets as sales when the Company has surrendered control over the asset. Management deems the Company has surrendered control over transferred assets when:

● the assets have been isolated from the Company;

● the transferee obtains the right (free of conditions that constrain it from taking advantage of that right) to pledge or exchange the transferred asset; and

● the Company does not maintain effective control over the transferred asset through an agreement to repurchase it before its maturity.

F-20

The Company, from time to time, sells participation interests in mortgage loans it has originated or acquired. In order to recognize the transfer of a portion of a financial asset as a sale, the transferred portion, and any portion that continues to be held by the transferor must represent a participating interest, and the transfer of the participating interest must meet the conditions for surrender of control. To qualify as a participating interest:

● each portion of a financial asset must represent a proportionate ownership interest in an entire financial asset;

● from the date of transfer, all cash flows received from the entire financial asset must be divided proportionately among the participating interest holders in an amount equal to their respective share of ownership;

● the transfer must be made on a non-recourse basis (other than standard representations and warranties made under the loan participation sale agreement);

● the transfer may not be subordinate to any other participating interest holder; and

● no party has the right to pledge or exchange the entire financial asset.

If the transaction does not meet either the participating interest or surrender of control criteria, management accounts for it as a secured borrowing arrangement.

Under some circumstances, when the Company sells a participation in a wholly-owned loan receivable that it services, it retains loan-servicing rights, and records a servicing asset that is initially measured at fair value. As quoted market prices are generally not available for these assets, the Company estimates fair value based on the present value of future expected cash flows associated with the loan receivable. The Company amortizes servicing assets over the life of the associated receivable using the interest method. Any gain or loss recognized on the sale of a loan receivable depends in part on both the previous carrying amount of the financial asset involved in the sale, allocated between the asset sold and the interest that continues to be held by the Company based on its relative fair value at the date of transfer, and the proceeds received.

Property and Equipment

The Company states its furniture, fixtures, equipment, and leasehold improvements at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Management computes depreciation on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets. The useful lives of the Company’s assets range from three to seven years.

F-21

Debt Issuance Costs

The Company’s debt consists of borrowings from financial institutions and obligations to investors incurred through the sale of investor notes. Management presents debt net of debt issuance costs, and amortizes debt issuance costs into interest expense over the contractual terms of the debt using the straight-line method.

Employee Benefit Plans

The Company records contributions to the qualified employee retirement plan as compensation cost in the period incurred. The Company has also entered into a Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (the “SERP”) with its President and Chief Executive Officer, Joseph W. Turner, Jr. The Company records expenses related to the SERP based on the likelihood of the benefits vesting.

Leases

We recognize right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet for leases with lease terms longer than 12 months. The recognition, measurement and presentation of lease expenses and cash flows depend on the classification by the lessee as a finance or operating lease.

The Company has operating leases for real estate. Its leases have remaining lease terms of 3 months to 2 years. Its lease agreements may include renewal or termination options for varying periods that are generally at our discretion. In lease term, the Company only includes those periods related to renewal options we are reasonably certain to exercise. However, the Company generally does not include these renewal options as it is not reasonably certain to renew at the lease commencement date. This determination is based on management’s consideration of certain economic, strategic, and other factors that are evaluated at lease commencement date and reevaluate throughout the lease term. Some leases also include options to terminate the leases and the Company only includes those periods beyond the termination date if management is reasonably certain not to exercise the termination option.

Some leasing arrangements require variable payments that are dependent on usage or may vary for other reasons, such as payments for insurance and tax payments. The variable part of lease payments is not included in our ROU assets or lease liabilities. Rather, variable payments, other than those dependent upon an index or rate, are expensed when the obligation for those payments is incurred and are included in lease expenses recorded in selling and administrative expenses on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

If any of the lease agreements have both lease and non-lease components, the Company treats those as a single lease component for all underlying asset classes. Accordingly, all expenses associated with a lease contract are accounted for as lease expenses.

F-22

Leases with a term of 12 months or less are not recognized on the balance sheet, but rather expensed on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Income Taxes

The Company has elected to be treated as a partnership for income tax purposes. Therefore, the Company passes through its income and expenses to its members for tax reporting purposes.

Tesoro Hills, LLC, is a joint venture in which the Company has an investment. Tesoro Hills, according to its operating agreement, has elected to be treated as a partnership for income tax purposes.

The Company and MP Securities are subject to a California LLC fee.

The Company uses a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the consolidated financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken in a tax return. The Company recognizes benefits from tax positions in the consolidated financial statements only when it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained upon examination by the appropriate taxing authority that would have full knowledge of all relevant information. A tax position that meets the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold is measured at the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50 percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. Tax positions that previously failed to meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold are recognized in the first subsequent financial reporting period in which that threshold is met. Management derecognizes previously recognized tax positions that no longer meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold in the first subsequent financial reporting period in which that threshold is no longer met.

New accounting guidance

Accounting Standards Pending Adoption

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.” ASU 2016-13 introduces an approach based on expected losses to estimate credit losses on certain types of financial instruments. ASU 2016-13 also modifies the impairment model for available-for-sale debt securities and provides for a simplified accounting model for purchased financial assets with credit deterioration since their origination. The guidance requires companies to apply the requirements in the year of adoption through cumulative adjustment with some aspects of the update requiring a prospective transition approach.

In October 2019, the FASB adopted a two-bucket approach to stagger the effective date for the credit losses standard for the fiscal years beginning after December 31, 2022 for certain entities,

F-23

including certain Securities and Exchange Commission filers, public business entities, and private companies. As a smaller reporting company, the Company is eligible for delayed implementation of the standard. The Company’s preliminary evaluation indicates the provisions of ASU No. 2016-13 are expected to affect the level of the allowance for loan losses on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Management has gathered all necessary data and reviewed potential methods to calculate the expected credit losses. The Company will use a third-party software solution to assist with the adoption of the standard.

The ASU allows for several different methods of calculating the Allowance for Credit Losses (“ACL”) and based on its analysis of observable data, the Company determined the probability of default method to be the most appropriate for all its loans.

The Company expects to record a one-time cumulative effect adjustment to the allowance for credit losses in retained earnings on the consolidated balance sheet as of the beginning of 2023, as is required in the guidance. The Company believes there will be an adjustment to the allowance of up to $300 thousand. In addition, the Company expects the allowance for unfunded commitments to be immaterial.

The qualitative impact of the new accounting standard will still be directed by many of the same factors that impacted the previous methodology for calculating the allowance, including but not limited to, quality and experience of staff, changes in the value of collateral, concentrations of credit in loan types and changes to lending policies. In addition, the Company will also use reasonable and supportable forecasts.

The actual impact from adopting this guidance may be subject to change based upon refinement and finalization of the model and associated assumptions, the implementation and testing of certain internal controls ensuring model effectiveness and management’s judgment.

In March 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-02, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures. This ASU eliminates the accounting guidance for troubled debt restructurings (TDRs) by creditors in Subtopic 310-40, Receivables - Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors, while adding disclosures for certain loan restructurings by creditors when a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty. This guidance requires an entity to determine whether the modification results in a new loan or a continuation of an existing loan. Additionally, the ASU requires disclosure of current period gross write-offs by year of origination for financing receivables. This ASU is effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. The Company adopted this guidance on January 1, 2023 and it did not have a material impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Loan participation interests sold:

From time to time, the Company sells loan participation interests in loans it originates and services to ACCU. The Company negotiates pass-through interest rates on loan participation interests sold to ACCU on a loan-by-loan basis. Management believes these terms are equivalent to those that prevail in arm’s length transactions.

Effective August 9, 2021, the Company entered into a Master Loan Participation Purchase and Sale Agreement (“the Master LP Agreement”) with ACCU. The Master LP Agreement is intended to facilitate the sale to ACCU of small participation interests in the Company’s originated loans. As a part of any transaction conducted under the Master LP Agreement, the borrower of the loan being sold would become a member of ACCU, thereby meeting the requirements of NCUA regulations that govern loan participation purchases by credit unions. This allows the Company to sell additional participations in the loan to other credit unions.

Sales made under the Master LP Agreement are done on a recourse basis, requiring the Company to repurchase the participation interest in the event of default by the borrower. Under a separate Deposit Control Agreement reached in conjunction with the Master LP Agreement, the Company deposits cash on a one-to-one basis as collateral to secure the participation interest sold to ACCU. This cash is considered restricted cash. The Company retains the ability to sell loan participation interests to ACCU outside of the Master LP Agreement.

As of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, $7 thousand and $17 thousand had been sold and was outstanding under this agreement. This has been classified on the balance sheet as secured borrowings. The Company has deposited equal amounts of cash in an account at ACCU as collateral for these borrowings. These funds are considered restricted cash.

As part of this agreement, the Company retained the right to service the loan, and it charged UFCU a fee for servicing the loan. The loan related to this agreement paid off in 2022.

The Company has also entered into a Loan Participation Agreement with Navy Federal Credit Union (“NFCU”), an owner of both the Company’s Class A Common Units and Series A Preferred Units. Under this agreement, the Company sold NFCU a $5.0 million loan participation interest in one of its construction loans on March 20, 2020. As part of this agreement, the Company retained the right to service the loan, and it charges NFCU a fee for servicing the loan. Management believes the terms of the agreement are equivalent to those that prevail in arm’s length transactions for similar agreements entered into by other credit unions.

From time to time, the Company may purchase a loan participation interest from a related party. The Company and its related party will negotiate in good faith the terms and conditions of such a purchase and in accordance with the Company’s related party procedures and governance practices. Each party must approve such a purchase after full disclosure of the related party transaction and must include terms and conditions that would normally be included in arm’s length transactions conducted by independent parties.

F-31

Investor Notes Sold:

From time to time, the Company’s Board and members of its executive management team have purchased investor notes from the Company or have purchased investment products through MP Securities. Investor notes payable owned by related parties totaled $2.3 million and $261 thousand at December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

Transactions with Subsidiaries

The Company has entered into several agreements with its subsidiary, MP Securities. The Company eliminates the income and expense related to these agreements in the consolidated financial statements. MP Securities serves as the managing broker for the Company’s public and private placement note offerings. MP Securities receives compensation related to these broker-dealer services ranging from 0.25% to 5.50% over the life of a note. The amount of the compensation depends on the length of the note and the terms of the offering under which MP Securities sold the note.

The Company also has entered into an Administrative Services Agreement with MP Securities. The Administrative Services Agreement provides services such as the use of office space, use of equipment, including computers and phones, and payroll and personnel services. The agreement stipulates that MP Securities will provide ministerial, compliance, marketing, operational, and investor relations-related services in relation to the Company’s investor note program. As stated above, the Company eliminates all intercompany transactions related to this agreement in its consolidated financial statements.

The Company’s subsidiary, MPF, serves as the collateral agent for the Company’s Secured Notes. The Company’s Prospectus for its Class 1A Notes and the private placement memorandum for the Company’s Secured Notes Offering describe the terms of these agreements.

Related Party Transaction Policy

The Board has adopted a Related Party Transaction Policy to assist in evaluating transactions the Company may enter into with a related party. Under this policy, a majority of the members of the Company’s Board and majority of its independent Board members must approve a material transaction that it enters into with a related party. As a result, all transactions that the Company undertakes with an affiliate or a related party are entered into on terms believed by management to be no less favorable than are available from unaffiliated third parties. In addition, a majority of the Company’s independent Board members must approve these transactions.

Note 4. Loans Receivable and Allowance for Loan Losses

The Company’s loan portfolio is comprised of one segment – commercial loans. See “Note 1 – Loan Portfolio Segments and Classes” to the Financial Statements. The loans fall into four classes:

● wholly-owned loans for which the Company possesses the first collateral position;

● wholly-owned loans that are either unsecured or for which the Company possesses a junior collateral position;

● participated loans purchased for which the Company possesses the first collateral position; and

Beginning in April, 2020, the Company has taken measures to assist borrowers adversely affected by COVID-19 by deferring principal and/or interest payments. The concessions granted met the qualifications under Section 4013 of the CARES Act, and, as a result, the Company elected not to account for these modifications as troubled debt restructurings. The Company restructured one loan during the year ended December 31, 2021 that qualified as a CARES Act modification and was not accounted for as a troubled debt restructuring. This loan had an outstanding balance of $1.3 million at the time of the modification. The borrower resumed making contractual payment prior to December 31, 2021. As of December 31, 2021, no loans were under CARES Act deferrals. The Company did not restructure any loans that qualified as CARES Act modifications during the year ended December 31, 2022.

The Company restructured four loans during the year ended December 31, 2022. The Company restructured two loans during the year ended December 31, 2021.

Of the four loans the Company restructured in 2022, two were granted extended maturity dates when the borrower’s financial condition could not support a full renewal. One of these loans was a construction loan that still had amounts remaining to be drawn. Two months after the restructure, the borrower met the appropriate conditions, and the Company funded the remainder of the approved amount of the construction draws. The Company then renewed and converted the loan to an amortizing commercial real estate loan. One restructured loan was granted a period of six months of interest-only payments; the borrower had returned to making principal and interest payments prior to December 31, 2022. Finally, the Company reached a forbearance agreement with a borrower to restructure a loan, granting a reduced interest rate and interest-only payments for one year. None of the loans restructured during the year ended December 31, 2022 subsequently defaulted.

The Company had two previously restructured loans that were past maturity as of December 31, 2022. The Company has entered into forbearance agreements with the borrowers and is evaluating what actions it should undertake to protect its investment on these loans. These forbearance agreements include reduced monthly payment amounts and additional reporting requirements.

F-39

For loans modified in a troubled debt restructuring, the Company monitors borrower performance according to the terms of the restructure to determine whether there are any early indicators for future default. Management regularly evaluates loans modified in a troubled debt restructuring for potential further impairment and will make adjustments to the risk ratings and specific reserves associated with troubled debt restructurings as deemed necessary.

As of December 31, 2022, no additional funds were committed to be advanced in connection with loans modified as troubled debt restructurings.

Note 5. Investments

Joint Venture

In December 2015, the Company finalized an agreement with Intertex Property Management, Inc., a California corporation, to enter into a joint venture to form Tesoro Hills, LLC (the “Valencia Hills Project”). Intertex is a managing member of the LLC, with authority to direct operations. The Company is a non-managing member with no authority beyond limited rights granted to the Company by the operating agreement. The Valencia Hills Project is a joint venture that will develop and market property formerly classified by the Company as a foreclosed asset. In January 2016, the Company transferred ownership in the foreclosed asset to the Valencia Hills Project. In addition, the Company reclassified the carrying value of the property from foreclosed assets to an investment in a joint venture. The Company’s initial investment in the joint venture was $900 thousand and represented 100% of the ownership of the joint venture. The Company’s ownership percentage in the joint venture was 74% as of December 31, 2022 and 2021.

The value of the Company’s investment in the joint venture was $870 thousand and $882 thousand, as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Management’s impairment analysis of the investment as of December 31, 2022 has determined that the investment is not impaired.

Term-Debt Credit Facility

The Company had a secured term-debt credit facility with OSK VII, LLC, an investment fund (“OSK”). The original obligation on this debt was an $87.3 million credit facility refinancing transaction, which was entered into on November 4, 2011, with the National Credit Union Administration Board As Liquidating Agent of Members United Corporate Federal Credit Union. On June 28, 2019, NCUA assigned all its rights, title, and interest under the credit facility to OSK. The facility was non-revolving and did not include an option to renew or extend additional credit. Additionally, the facility does not contain a prepayment penalty. Under the terms of the credit facility, the Company was required to maintain a minimum collateralization ratio of at least 120%. If at any time the Company had failed to maintain its required minimum collateralization ratio, it

F-45

would have been required to deliver cash or qualifying mortgage loans in an amount sufficient to meet its obligation to maintain a minimum collateralization ratio. The facility’s interest rate was 2.525%. The collateral securing the facility at December 31, 2021 satisfied the 120% minimum ratio. In addition, the credit facility included several borrower covenants. The Company was in compliance with these covenants as of December 31, 2021. On March 5, 2021, the Company made a $14.3 million principal prepayment on this facility and realized a $2.3 million gain on the extinguishment of debt because of this payment. On January 6, 2022, the Company made a $16.5 million principal prepayment on this facility and realized a $1.5 million gain on the extinguishment of debt. On June 29, 2022, and September 29, 2022, the Company made $3.3 million principal prepayments on this facility and realized $300 thousand gains on the extinguishment of debt on of each of these payments. The Company was in compliance with its covenants under the facility at the time of these payments.

On November 4, 2022, the Company paid off the remaining $5.4 million in outstanding principal on the term-debt credit facility. The term-debt credit facility is now terminated and satisfied in whole. The Company negotiated to settle the remaining $5.4 million in principal outstanding at a discount resulting in a gain on debt extinguishment of $437 thousand.

Paycheck Protection Program Loan

On April 27, 2020, MP Securities applied for and received a Paycheck Protection Program loan (“PPP Loan”) granted under the CARES Act in the amount of $111 thousand. According to the terms of the program, as administered by the Small Business Association (“SBA”), payments on the loan were deferred and deferred interest was capitalized into the principal balance of the loan. In addition, qualifying amounts of the principal balance of the loan and deferred interest were eligible to be forgiven if MP Securities retained employees and maintained salary levels for its existing employees. On March 5, 2021, the SBA forgave all principal and accrued interest due on this loan.

KCT Lines of Credit

On September 30, 2020, Ministry Partners Investment Company, LLC, entered into a Loan and Security Agreement with KCT Credit Union, an Illinois state chartered financial institution. On June 6, 2022, the Company and KCT mutually agreed to terminate this facility and entered into two new facilities. The first facility, the KCT Warehouse LOC, is a $5.0 million short-term demand credit facility with a one-year maturity date ending on June 6, 2023. The KCT Warehouse LOC will automatically renew for another one-year term unless either party furnishes written notice at least 30 days prior to the termination date that it does not intend to renew the agreement. The Company has secured the KCT Warehouse LOC with certain of its mortgage loan investments.

F-46

The Company may draw funds on the KCT Warehouse LOC at any time until the line is fully drawn. Repayment of each advance is due 120 days after the advance is made or earlier if a collateral loan becomes more than 60 days delinquent, and the Company fails to cure such deficiency. The interest rate on the KCT Warehouse LOC is equal to the prime rate at the time of the draw plus 0.50%. At December 31, 2022, the interest rate on the KCT Warehouse LOC was 5.25%. To secure its obligations under the KCT Warehouse LOC, the Company has agreed to grant a priority first lien and security interest in certain of its mortgage loan investments and maintain a minimum collateralization ratio measured by taking outstanding balance of mortgage notes pledged under the facility as compared to the total amount of principal owed on the KCT Warehouse LOC. The minimum ratio must equal at least 120%. The KCT Warehouse LOC also requires the Company to maintain a deposit of 25% of the total line limit to borrow on the facility. In September 2022, the Company purchased a $1.25 million certificate of deposit from KCT that satisfies this requirement. A total of $6.2 million in loans were pledged on this facility as of December 31, 2022. At December 31, 2022, there were no outstanding borrowings on the KCT Warehouse LOC.

In addition, on June 6, 2022, the Company entered into an Operating Line of Credit Loan and Security Agreement with the KCT, the KCT Operating LOC. The KCT Operating LOC is a $5.0 million short-term demand credit facility with a one-year maturity date ending on June 6, 2023. The KCT Operating LOC will automatically renew for another one-year term unless either party furnishes written notice at least 30 days prior to the termination date that it does not intend to renew the agreement. The Company must secure a minimum of 25% of the line with cash while the remaining portion of the KCT Operating LOC may be secured by certain of its mortgage loan investments.

The Company may draw funds on the KCT Operating LOC at any time until the line is fully drawn. Repayment by the termination date or earlier if a collateral loan becomes more than 60 days delinquent, and the Company fails to cure such deficiency. The interest rate on the KCT Warehouse LOC is equal to the prime rate at the time of the draw plus 0.50%. At December 31, 2022, the interest rate on the KCT Warehouse LOC was 5.25%. To secure its obligations under the KCT Operating LOC, the Company has agreed to grant a priority first lien and security interest in certain of its mortgage loan investments and maintain a minimum collateralization ratio measured by taking the outstanding balance of mortgage notes pledged under the facility as compared to the total amount of principal owed less the secured cash on the KCT Operating LOC. The minimum ratio must equal at least 120%. A total of $4.8 million in loans were pledged on this facility as of December 31, 2022. At December 31, 2022, there were no outstanding borrowings on the KCT Operating LOC.

The KCT Operating LOC and the KCT Warehouse LOC both contain typical affirmative covenants for a credit facility of this nature, including requiring that the Company maintain the pledged

collateral free of liens and encumbrances, timely pay the amounts due under the facility and provide KCT with current financial statements and monthly reports. The Company will also be required to comply with certain financial covenants including maintaining a net worth of at least $5.0 million dollars, ensuring that its net worth is equal to at least 5% of its total liabilities and that it will maintain minimum liquidity that equals or exceeds 120% of the outstanding amount owed under the KCT Operating LOC and the KCT Warehouse LOC at the end of each calendar month.

ACCU Line of Credit

On September 23, 2021, Ministry Partners Investment Company, LLC, entered into a Loan and Security Agreement with ACCU (“ACCU LOC”). The ACCU LOC is a revolving $5.0 million short-term demand credit facility with a one-year maturity date of September 23, 2023. The facility carried an outstanding balance of $3.0 million and $2.0 million at December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. The interest rate on the facility is equal to the Prime Rate as published in the Wall Street Journal plus 0.75%. This rate will be adjusted on January 10^th each year to account for the current Prime Rate but cannot be adjusted below 4.00%. The interest rate on the ACCU LOC was 4.00% on December 31, 2022. The ACCU LOC will automatically renew for one additional one-year term unless either party furnishes written notice at least thirty (30) days prior to the termination date that it does not intend to renew the agreement.

The Company may draw funds on the ACCU LOC at any time until the line is fully drawn. All outstanding principal and interest amounts are due on the maturity date. To secure its obligations under the ACCU LOC, the Company has agreed to grant a priority first lien and security interest in certain of its mortgage loan investments and maintain a minimum collateralization ratio measured by taking outstanding balance of mortgage notes pledged under the facility as compared to the total amount of principal owed on the ACCU LOC. The minimum ratio must equal at least 120%. The Company must also maintain minimum liquidity that equals or exceeds $10.0 million at all times during the term of the loan. The ACCU LOC contains typical affirmative covenants for a credit facility of this nature. The Company was in compliance with these covenants at years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021. A total of $6.8 million in loans were pledged on this facility as of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

ACCU Secured Borrowings

As detailed in Note 3: Related Party Transactions, on August 9, 2021, the Company entered into a Master Loan Participation Purchase and Sale Agreement with ACCU. The participations sold under the Master LP Agreement are considered secured borrowings and are presented as such on the Company’s balance sheet. $7 thousand and $17 thousand in secured borrowings were outstanding under the Master LP Agreement as of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

SEC Registered Public Offerings

Class 1 Offering

In January 2015, the Company registered its Class 1 Notes with the SEC. The Company discontinued the sale of its Class 1 Note Offering when it expired on December 31, 2017. The offering included two categories of notes, including a fixed interest note and a variable interest note. The Class 1 Notes contain restrictive covenants pertaining to paying dividends, making redemptions, acquiring, purchasing, or making certain payments, requiring the maintenance of minimum tangible net worth, limitations on the issuance of additional notes, and incurring of indebtedness. The Company was in compliance with these covenants as of December 31, 2021. The Company issued the Class 1 Notes under a Trust Indenture between the Company and U.S. Bank. There were no outstanding Class 1 Notes as of December 31, 2022.

Class 1A Offering

In February 2018, the Company launched its Class 1A Notes Offering. Pursuant to a Registration Statement declared effective on February 27, 2018, the Company registered $90 million of its Class 1A Notes in two series – fixed and variable notes. The Class 1A Notes are unsecured. The interest rate paid on the Fixed Series Notes is determined in reference to a Constant Maturity Treasury Index published by the U.S. Department of Treasury (“CMT Index”) in effect on the date that the note is issued plus a rate spread as described in the Company’s Class 1A Prospectus. The variable index in effect on the date the interest rate is set determines the interest rate paid on a Variable Series Note. The CMT Index refers to the Constant Maturity Treasury rates published by the U.S. Department of Treasury for actively traded Treasury securities. The variable index is equal to the 3-month LIBOR rate. The Company issued the Class 1A Notes under a Trust Indenture entered into between the Company and U.S. Bank.

2021 Class A Offering

In January 2021, the Company launched its 2021 Class A Notes Offering. Pursuant to a Registration Statement declared effective on January 8, 2021, the Company registered $125 million of its 2021 Class A Notes in two series – fixed and variable notes. The 2021 Class A Notes are unsecured. Like the Class 1A Notes Offering, the interest rate paid on the Fixed Series Notes is determined in reference to a CMT Index published by the U.S. Department of Treasury in effect on the date that the note is issued plus a rate spread as described in the Company’s 2021 Class A Prospectus. The variable index in effect on the date the interest rate is set determines the interest rate paid on a Variable Series Note. The CMT Index refers to the Constant Maturity Treasury rates published by the U.S. Department of Treasury for actively traded Treasury securities. The variable index is equal to the 3-month LIBOR rate. The Company issued the 2021 Class A Notes under a Trust Indenture entered into by and between the Company and U.S. Bank.

Private Offerings

Series 1 Subordinated Capital Notes (“Subordinated Notes”)

In June 2018, the Company renewed the offer and sale of its Subordinated Notes initially launched in February 2013. The Company offers the notes pursuant to a limited private offering to qualified investors that meet the requirements of Rule 506 of Regulation D. The Company offers the Subordinated Notes with maturity terms from 12 to 60 months at an interest rate fixed on the date of issuance, as determined by the then current seven-day average rate reported by the U.S. Federal Reserve Board for interest rate swaps.

Under the Subordinated Notes offering, the Company is subject to certain covenants, including limitations on restricted payments, limitations on the amount of notes that it can sell, restrictions on mergers and acquisitions, and proper maintenance of books and records. The Company was in compliance with these covenants at December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

Note 12. Commitments and Contingencies

Unfunded Commitments

The Company is a party to credit-related financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include undisbursed loans, un-advanced lines of credit, and standby letters of credit. Such commitments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the balance sheet.

The contractual amount of these commitments represents the Company’s exposure to credit loss. The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments as it does for on-balance-sheet instruments.

The table below shows the outstanding financial instruments whose contract amounts represent credit risk (dollars in thousands):

	Contract Amount at:
	December 31, 2022		December 31, 2021
Undisbursed loans	$	355	$	270

Undisbursed loans are commitments for possible future extensions of credit to existing customers. These loans are sometimes unsecured and the borrower may not necessarily draw upon the line the total amount of the commitment. Commitments to extend credit are generally at variable rates.

F-51

Operating Leases

The Company has lease agreements for its offices in Brea and Fresno, California. The Brea office lease expires in December 2023. The lease does not contain any additional options to renew. The Fresno office lease expires in April 2025. There are no options to renew in the lease agreement. The Company also has a lease agreement for a vehicle used by management. The lease for the vehicle terminates in December 2024. The Company has determined that these leases are operating leases.

Note 14. Preferred and Common Units Under LLC Structure

Holders of the Series A Preferred Units are entitled to receive a quarterly cash dividend that is 25 basis points higher than the one-year LIBOR rate in effect on the last day of the calendar month for which the preferred return is approved. The Company has also agreed to set aside an annual amount equal to 10% of its net profits earned for any year, after subtracting from profits the quarterly Series A Preferred Unit dividends paid, for distribution to its Series A Preferred Unit holders.

The Series A Preferred Units have a liquidation preference of $100 per unit and have no voting rights. They are also subject to redemption in whole or in part at the Company’s election on December 31 of any year for an amount equal to the liquidation preference of each unit, plus any accrued and declared but unpaid quarterly dividends and preferred distributions on such units. The Series A Preferred Units have priority as to earnings and distributions over the Common Units. The resale of the Company’s Series A Preferred Units and Common Units are subject to the Company’s first right of refusal to purchase units proposed to be transferred. Upon the Company’s failure to pay quarterly dividends for four consecutive quarters, the holders of the Series A Preferred Units have the right to appoint two managers to its Board of Managers.

The Class A Common Units have voting rights, but have no liquidation preference or rights to dividends, unless declared.

Note 15. Retirement Plans

401(k)

All of the Company’s employees are eligible to participate in the Automated Data Processing, Inc. (“ADP”) 401(k) plan effective as of the date their employment commences. No minimum service is required and the minimum age is 21. Each employee may elect voluntary contributions not to exceed 86% of salary, subject to certain limits based on U.S. tax law. The plan has a matching program, which qualifies as a Safe Harbor 401(k) plan. As a Safe Harbor Section 401(k) plan, the Company matches each eligible employee’s contribution, dollar for dollar, up to 3% of the employee’s compensation, and 50% of the employee’s contribution that exceeds 3% of their compensation, up to a maximum contribution of 5% of the employee’s compensation. Company matching contributions for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 were $80 thousand and $67 thousand, respectively.

F-53

Profit Sharing

The profit sharing plan is for all employees who, at the end of the calendar year, are at least 21 years old, still employed, and have at least 900 hours of service during the plan year. The Company’s Board of Managers determines the amount annually contributed on behalf of each qualified employee. The Company determines the amount by calculating it as a percentage of the eligible employee’s annual earnings. Plan forfeitures are used to reduce the Company’s annual contribution. The Company did not make or approve a profit sharing contribution to the plan during the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021.

Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan

On March 30, 2022, the Company entered into a Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (the “SERP”) with its President and Chief Executive Officer, Joseph W. Turner, Jr. The SERP is an unfunded non-qualified plan that is intended to provide Mr. Turner with a fixed benefit over a ten-year period after Mr. Turner incurs a separation from service with the Company. The SERP has been established as a supplemental retirement and death benefits arrangement that conforms with the provisions of Section 409(A) of the Internal Revenue Code. If Mr. Turner retires on or after his expected retirement date, he will be entitled to receive $60,000 per year over a ten-year period, payable in equal monthly installments commencing the first day of the month following his separation from service.

For purposes of the SERP, Mr. Turner’s accrued benefit is subject to a maximum sum of $600,000, with payments made annually in equal monthly installments over a ten-year period. The Company is liable for the entire amount of this benefit unless Mr. Turner incurs a separation of service prior to the vesting date in August 2024. The Company’s management has determined that such a separation is unlikely to occur prior to the vesting date and has accrued the entire benefit as of December 31, 2022.

Note 16. Fair Value Measurements

Fair Value Measurements Using Fair Value Hierarchy

The Company classifies measurements of fair value within a hierarchy based upon inputs that give the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. The Company did not change its methodology in measuring fair value during the year ended December 31, 2022. The fair value hierarchy is as follows:

F-54

● Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

● Level 2 inputs include:

o quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets,

o quoted prices for identical assets and liabilities in inactive markets,

o inputs that are observable for the asset or liability (such as interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risks, etc.); or

o inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or by other means.

● Level 3 inputs are unobservable and reflect an entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the assets or liabilities.

In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls has been determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, and considers factors specific to the asset or liability.

Management uses judgment in estimating the fair value of the Company’s financial instruments; however, there are inherent weaknesses in any estimation technique. Therefore, for substantially all financial instruments, the fair value estimates presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts the Company could have realized in a sales transaction at December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

The Company used the following methods and assumptions to estimate the fair value of financial instruments:

● Cash – The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheets approximate fair value for cash.

F-56

● Certificates of deposit – Management estimates fair value by using a present value discounted cash flow with a discount rate approximating the current market rate for similar assets. Management classifies certificates of deposits as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

● Loans (other than collateral-dependent impaired loans) – Management estimates fair value by discounting the future cash flows of the loans. The discount rate the Company uses is the current average rates at which it would make loans to borrowers with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities. Also included is $7 thousand of loan participations transferred under a recourse agreement.

● Investments in joint venture – Management estimates fair value by analyzing the operations and marketability of the underlying investment to determine if the investment is other-than-temporarily impaired.

● Other investments – Management estimates fair value by determining the whether there is an indication of potential lack of performance on the part of the insurance companies in which the investments are made, and whether those indications would impair the investments.

● Investor Notes Payable – Management estimates the fair value of fixed maturity notes by discounting the future cash flows of the notes. The discount rate the Company uses is the rate currently offered for investor notes payable of similar remaining maturities. Company management estimates the discount rate by using market rates that reflect the interest rate risk inherent in the notes.

● Lines of Credit, Term-debt, Other Secured Borrowings – Management estimates the fair value of borrowings from financial institutions discounting the future cash flows of the borrowings. The discount rate the Company uses is the current incremental borrowing rate for similar types of borrowing arrangements.

● Off-Balance Sheet Instruments – Management determines the fair value of loan commitments on fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining term of the agreements and the counterparties’ credit standing. The fair value of loan commitments is insignificant at December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

Fair Value Measured on a Nonrecurring Basis

The Company measures certain assets at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. On these assets, the Company only makes fair value adjustments in certain circumstances (for example, when there is evidence of impairment). The following table presents the fair value of assets measured on a nonrecurring basis (dollars in thousands):

F-57

The following table presents activity in Level 3 assets for those assets in which there were purchases or sales, or in which assets were transferred between levels. The only assets to have such activity during the year ended December 31, 2022 were other investments (dollars in thousands): 

	Other investments
Balance, December 31, 2021	$	--
Purchase of other investments		1,000
Realized income on other investments		18
Balance, December 31, 2022	$	1,018

Impaired Loans

The fair value of collateral-dependent impaired loans with specific allocations of the allowance for loan losses is generally based on recent real estate appraisals. Such fair values are obtained using independent appraisals, which the Company may discount due to age or other factors, which the Company considers to be Level 3 inputs. The range of these discounts is shown in the table below.

Foreclosed Assets

At the date of foreclosure, the Company initially records real estate acquired through foreclosure or other proceedings (foreclosed assets) at fair value less estimated costs of disposal, which establishes a new cost. After foreclosure, management periodically performs valuations on foreclosed assets. The company carries foreclosed assets held for sale at the lower of cost or fair value, less estimated costs of disposal. The fair values of real properties initially are determined based on appraisals. In some cases, management adjusts the appraised values for various factors including age of the appraisal, age of comparable properties included in the appraisal, and known changes in the market or in the collateral. The Company makes subsequent valuations of the real properties based either on

F-58

management estimates or on updated appraisals. If management makes significant adjustments to appraised values based on unobservable inputs, the Company categorizes foreclosed assets under Level 3. Otherwise, if management bases the foreclosed assets’ value on recent appraisals and the only adjustments made are for known contractual selling costs, the Company will categorize the foreclosed assets under Level 2.

Other Investments

Other investments comprise two indexed annuity insurance contracts. The Company measures fair value on its annuity investments on a nonrecurring basis. On these assets, the Company only makes fair value adjustments when there is evidence of impairment. As the principal amounts and recognized income on the annuities is guaranteed, only impairment of the assets would indicate a degradation in their fair value. The Company concluded that no impairment of the annuity investments existed at December 31, 2022. As such, the Company has determined that the carrying value of its other investments equals its fair value at December 31, 2022.

The table below summarizes the valuation methodologies used to measure the fair value adjustments for Level 3 assets recorded at fair value on a nonrecurring basis (dollars in thousands):

December 31, 2022
Assets	Fair Value (in thousands)		Valuation Techniques	Unobservable Input	Range (Weighted Average)
Impaired loans	$	5,259	Discounted appraised value	Selling cost / Estimated market decrease	21% - 81% (28%)
Investments in joint venture		870	Internal evaluations	Estimated future market value	0% (0%)
Other investments		1,018	Internal evaluations	Indications of non-performance by insurance companies	0% (0%)

Note 17. Income Taxes and State LLC Fees

MPIC is subject to a California gross receipts LLC fee of approximately $12,000 per year, and the state minimum franchise tax of $800 per year. MP Securities is subject to a California gross receipts LLC fee of approximately $6,000 and the state minimum franchise tax of $800 per year.

MP Realty incurred a tax loss for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, and recorded a provision of $800 per year for the state minimum franchise tax. For the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, MP Realty has federal and state net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $432 thousand and $422 thousand, respectively, which begin to expire in the year 2032. Management assessed the realizability of the deferred tax asset and determined that a 100% valuation against the deferred tax asset was appropriate at years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021.

Tax years ended December 31, 2019 through December 31, 2022 remain subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service and the tax years ended December 31, 2018 through December 31, 2022 remain subject to examination by the California Franchise Tax Board.

Note 18. Segment Information

The Company’s reportable segments are strategic business units that offer different products and services. The Company manages the segments separately because each business requires different management, personnel proficiencies, and marketing strategies.

The Company has two reportable segments that represent the primary businesses reported in the consolidated financial statements: the finance company (the parent company), and the investment advisor and insurance firm (MP Securities). The finance company segment uses funds from the sale of debt securities, income from operations, and the sale of loan participations to originate or purchase mortgage loans. The finance company also services loans. MP Securities generates fee income by selling debt securities and other investment and insurance products, as well as providing investment advisory and financial planning services.

The accounting policies applied to determine the segment information are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. Management accounts for intersegment revenues and expenses at amounts that assume the Company entered into the transaction with unrelated third parties at the current market prices at the time of the transaction.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the fiscal period ending December 31, 2022 covered by this Report on Form 10-K. The officers performed this evaluation as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act. From this evaluation, our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of and for the year ended December 31, 2022. This conclusion by our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer does not relate to reporting periods after December 31, 2022.

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over our financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act). Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Our internal controls over financial reporting include those policies and procedures that:

● pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets;

● provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and the Board; and

60

● provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on our financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. In addition, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of and for the year ended December 31, 2022. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission Internal Control-Integrated Framework. Based on this assessment, management believes that, as of and for the year ended December 31, 2022, our internal control over financial reporting is effective.

This Report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the SEC that permit us to provide only management’s report in this Report on Form 10-K.

Related Party Transaction Policy

The Board has adopted a Related Party Transaction Policy to assist in evaluating transactions the Company may enter into with a related party. Under this policy, a majority of the members of the Company’s Board and majority of its independent Board members must approve a material transaction that it enters into with a related party. As a result, all transactions that the Company undertakes with an affiliate or a related party are entered into on terms believed by management to be no less favorable than are available from unaffiliated third parties.

ITEM 14.PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTANT FEES AND SERVICES

Before we engage our principal accountant to render audit or non-audit services, our Audit Committee approves the engagement if SEC rules and regulations require it.

Nature of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

MINISTRY PARTNERS INVESTMENT COMPANY, LLC

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1. Nature of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Nature of Business

Throughout these notes to consolidated financial statements, we refer to Ministry Partners Investment Company, LLC and its subsidiaries as “the Company.” The Company was formed in California in 1991. The Company’s primary operations are financing commercial real property secured loans and providing investment services for the benefit of evangelical churches, ministries, and individuals. The Company funds its operations primarily through the sale of debt securities.

The Company’s wholly-owned subsidiaries are:

● Ministry Partners Funding, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“MPF”);

● MP Realty Services, Inc., a California corporation (“MP Realty”);

● Ministry Partners Securities, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“MP Securities”); and

● Ministry Partners for Christ, Inc., a not-for-profit Delaware corporation (“MPC”).

The Company formed MPF in 2007 and then deactivated the subsidiary on November 30, 2009. In December 2014, the Company reactivated MPF to enable it to serve as collateral agent for loans held as collateral for its Secured Investment Certificates.

The Company formed MP Realty in November 2009, and obtained a license to operate as a corporate real estate broker through the California Department of Real Estate on February 23, 2010. MP Realty has conducted limited operations to date.

The Company formed MP Securities on April 26, 2010 to provide investment and financial planning solutions for individuals, churches, charitable institutions, and faith-based organizations. MP Securities acts as the selling agent for the Company’s public and private placement notes.

The Company formed MPC on December 28, 2018 to be used exclusively for religious and charitable purposes within the meaning of Section 501(c)(3) of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (“IRC”). MPC is a not-for-profit corporation formed and organized under Delaware law. MPC makes charitable grants to Christian educational organizations, and provides accounting, consulting,

and financial expertise to aid evangelical Christian ministries. On August 23, 2019, the Internal Revenue Service granted MPC tax-exempt status as a private foundation under Section 501(c)(3) of the IRC. The MPC Board of Directors approved its first charitable grants during the year ended December 31, 2020.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Ministry Partners Investment Company, LLC and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. Management eliminates all significant inter-company balances and transactions in consolidation.

Conversion to LLC

Effective December 31, 2008, the Company converted from a corporation organized under California law to a California limited liability company. After this conversation, the separate existence of Ministry Partners Investment Corporation ceased and the entity continued by operation of law under the name Ministry Partners Investment Company, LLC. As an LLC, a group of managers provides oversight of the Company’s affairs. The managers have full, exclusive, and complete discretion, power, and authority to oversee the management of Company affairs. An Operating Agreement governs the Company’s management structure and governance procedures.

Risks and Uncertainties

COVID 19, a global pandemic, adversely impacted the broad economy, affecting most industries, including businesses, schools, hospitality-, and travel-based employers, and disrupted the supply and distribution networks that deliver products to the consuming public. The process of recovery from the pandemic by U.S. churches, ministries, and faith-based organizations that the Company serves could have a material financial impact on the Company. If declining in-person attendance at churches and faith-based organizations continues as churches and ministries adjust to the long-term effects of the pandemic, charitable gifts and contributions made to ministries and churches could be adversely affected.

In accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) and interagency regulatory guidance issued in March 2020, loans that were modified under the terms of our COVID 19 Deferral Assistance Program were not considered troubled debt restructurings to the extent that they met the terms of such guidance under Section 4013 of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”). The CARES Act guidance applies to modifications made between March 1, 2020, and the earlier of January 2, 2022, or sixty (60) days after the end of the COVID 19 national emergency, as stipulated by the Consolidated Appropriations Act signed into law on December 31, 2020. The Company has not restructured a loan under the COVID 19 Deferral Assistance Program since the year ended December 31, 2021 and does not expect to use the program in the future.

In addition, Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, increasing inflation, and the disruption of global supply chains are putting strain on the U.S economy and the U.S. consumer. While it is not possible to know the full extent of the long-term impact of COVID 19 or these other current events, the Company is disclosing potentially material factors that could impact our business of which it is aware.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash equivalents include time deposits and all highly liquid debt instruments with original maturities of three months or less. The Company had demand deposits and money market deposit accounts as of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

The National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund insures a portion of the Company’s cash held at credit unions and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insures a portion of cash held by the Company at other financial institutions. The Company holds cash deposits that may exceed insured limits. Management does not expect to incur losses in these cash accounts.

The Company maintains cash accounts with Royal Bank of Canada Dain Rauscher (“RBC Dain”) as part of its clearing agreement for its securities-related activities, and with the Central Registration Depository (“CRD”) for regulatory purposes in connections with its investment advisory and securities-related business. The Company also maintains cash in an account with America’s Christian Credit Union (“ACCU”) as collateral for its secured borrowings. The Company classifies these accounts as restricted cash on its balance sheet.

Certificates of Deposit

Certificates of deposit include investments in certificates of deposit held at financial institutions that carry original maturities of greater than three months. The Company had $1.3 million in certificates with terms greater than three months as of December 31, 2022. The Company had no certificates of deposit with original maturities of greater than three months at December 31, 2021.

Use of Estimates

The Company’s creation of consolidated financial statements that conform to United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP") requires management to make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. These estimates govern areas such as the allowance for credit losses and the fair value of financial instruments and foreclosed assets. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Investments in Joint Venture

In 2016, the Company entered into a joint venture agreement to develop and sell property we acquired as part of a Deed in Lieu of Foreclosure agreement reached with one of our borrowers. The joint venture owns a property located in Santa Clarita, California.

The Company accounts for its investment in the joint venture using the equity method of accounting. Under this method, the Company records its proportionate share of the joint venture’s net income or loss in the statement of operations.

On a periodic basis, or whenever events or circumstances arise that would necessitate analysis, management analyzes the Company’s investment in the joint venture for impairment. In this analysis, management compares the carrying value of the investment to the estimated value of the underlying real property. The Company records any impairment charges as a valuation allowance against the value of the asset. Management records these valuation changes as realized gains or losses on investment on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. The Company determined that the investment in the joint venture was not impaired as of December 31, 2022.

Other Investments

In June 2022, MP Securities purchased two ten-year fixed annuities from insurance companies. These annuities each carry unique features, including guaranteed fixed income components, variable income components, premium bonuses, and potential withdrawal charges. The Company carries these investments at cost and adjusts for guaranteed income when such income is realized. The principal balances of these annuities are guaranteed but are not insured; however, management determined that the annuities were not impaired at December 31, 2022 and does not anticipate losses.

Loans Receivable

The Company reports loans that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future at their outstanding unpaid principal balance adjusted for an allowance for loan losses, deferred loan fees and costs, and loan discounts.

Interest Accrual on Loans Receivable

The Company accrues loan interest income daily. Management defers loan origination fees and costs generated in making a loan. The Company amortizes these fees and costs as an adjustment to the related loan yield using the interest method.

Loan discounts can arise from interest accrued and unpaid which the Company adds to loan principal balances when it restructures the loan. The Company does not accrete discounts to income

on impaired loans. However, when management determines that a previously impaired loan is no longer impaired, the Company begins accreting loan discounts to interest income over the term of the restructured loan. For loans purchased from third parties, loan discounts include differences between the purchase price and the recorded principal balance of the loan. The Company accretes these discounts to interest income over the term of the loan using the interest method.

Management considers a loan impaired if it concludes that the collection of principal or interest according to the terms of the loan agreement is doubtful. The Company stops the accrual of interest when management determines the loan is impaired.

For loans that the Company places on non-accrual status, management reverses all uncollected accrued interest against interest income. Management accounts for the interest on these loans on the cash basis or cost-recovery method until the loan qualifies for return to accrual status. It is not until all the principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured that the Company returns a loan to accrual status.

Allowance for Loan Losses

The Company sets aside an allowance for loan losses by charging the provision for loan losses account on the Company’s consolidated statements of income. This charge decreases the Company’s earnings. Management charges off the part of loan balances it believes it will not collect against the allowance. The Company credits subsequent recoveries, if any, to the allowance.

Loan Portfolio Segments and Classes

Management separates the loan portfolio into portfolio segments for purposes of evaluating the allowance for loan losses. A portfolio segment is defined as the level at which the Company develops and documents a systematic method for determining its allowance for loan losses. The Company segments the loan portfolio based on loan types and the underlying risk factors present in each loan type. Management periodically reviews and revises such risk factors, as it considers appropriate.

The Company’s loan portfolio consists of one segment – commercial loans. Management has segregated the loan portfolio into the following portfolio classes:

Loan Class	Class Description
Wholly-Owned First Collateral Position	Wholly-owned loans and the retained portion of loans originated by the Company and sold for which the Company possesses a senior lien on the collateral underlying the loan.
Wholly-Owned Junior Collateral Position	Wholly-owned loans and the retained portion of loans originated by the Company and sold for which the Company possesses a lien on the underlying collateral that is superseded by another lien on the same collateral. This class also contains any loans that are not secured. These loans present higher credit risk than loans for which the Company possesses a senior lien due to the increased risk of loss should the loan default.
Participations First Collateral Position	Participated loans purchased from another financial entity for which the Company possesses a senior lien on the collateral underlying the loan. Loan participations purchased may present higher credit risk than wholly owned loans because disposition and direction of actions regarding the management and collection of the loans must be coordinated and negotiated with the other participants, whose best interests regarding the loan may not align with those of the Company.
Participations Junior Collateral Position	Participated loans purchased from another financial entity for which the Company possesses a lien on the underlying collateral that is superseded by another lien on the same collateral. Loan participations in the junior collateral position loans have higher credit risk than wholly owned loans and participated loans purchased where the Company possesses a senior lien on the collateral. The increased risk is the result of the factors presented above relating to both junior lien positions and participations.

Allowance for Loan Loss Evaluation

Management evaluates the allowance for loan losses on a regular basis. The Company establishes the allowance for loan losses based upon its periodic review of several factors management believes influences the collectability of the loans, including:

● the Company’s loss history;

● the characteristics and volume of the loan portfolio;

● adverse conditions that may affect the borrower’s ability to repay;

● the estimated value of any secured collateral; and

● the current economic conditions.

This evaluation is subjective, as it requires estimates that are subject to significant revision as more information becomes available.

The allowance consists of general and specific components. The general component covers non-classified loans. Management bases the general reserve on the Company’s loss history adjusted for qualitative factors. These qualitative factors are significant factors management considers likely to cause estimated credit losses associated with the Company’s existing portfolio to differ from its historical loss experience. Management adjusts these factors on an on-going basis, some of which include:

● changes in lending policies and procedures, including changes in underwriting standards and collection;

● changes in national, regional, and local economic and industry conditions that affect the collectability of the portfolio, including the effects of the pandemic;

● changes in the volume and severity of past due loans, the volume of non-accrual loans, and the volume and severity of adversely classified loans;

● changes in the value of the collateral for collateral-dependent loans; and

● the effect of credit concentrations.

Loans that management has classified as impaired receive a specific reserve. For such loans, an allowance is established when the carrying value of that loan is higher than the amount management expects to collect. Management uses multiple approaches to determine the amount the Company expects to collect. These include the discounted cash flow method, using the loan’s underlying collateral value reduced by expected selling costs, or using the observable market price of the impaired loan.

Impairment Analysis

Impaired loans include non-accrual loans, loans 90 days or more past due and still accruing, and restructured loans. Non-accrual loans are loans on which management has discontinued interest accruals. Restructured loans are loans in which the Company has granted the borrower a concession due to financial distress. Concessions are usually a reduction of the interest rate or a change in the original repayment terms.

The Company monitors impaired loans on an ongoing basis as part of management’s loan review and work out process. All loans in the loan portfolio are subject to impairment analysis. The Company reviews its loan portfolio monthly by examining several data points. These include

reviewing delinquency reports, any new information related to the financial condition of its borrowers, and any new appraisal or other collateral valuation. Through this process, the Company identifies potential impaired loans. Management generally deems a loan is impaired when current facts and circumstances indicate that it is probable a borrower will be unable to make payments according to the loan agreement. If management has not already deemed a loan impaired, it will classify the loan as non-accrual when it becomes 90 days or more past due.

Management considers several factors when determining impairment status. These factors include the loan’s payment status, the value of any secured collateral, and the probability of collecting scheduled payments when due. Management generally does not classify loans that experience minor payment delays or shortfalls as impaired. Management determines the significance of payment delays or shortfalls on a case-by-case basis, taking into consideration all of the circumstances surrounding the loan and the borrower. These circumstances include the length and reasons for the delay, the borrower’s payment history, and the amount of the shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed.

Management measures impairment on a loan-by-loan basis using one of three methods:

● the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate;

● the obtainable market price; or

● the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral-dependent.

Troubled Debt Restructurings

A troubled debt restructuring is a loan for which the Company, for reasons related to a borrower’s financial difficulties, grants a concession to a borrower that the Company would not otherwise consider. A restructuring of a loan usually involves an interest rate modification, extension of the maturity date, payment reduction, or reduction of accrued interest owed on the loan on a contingent or absolute basis.

Management considers loans that it renews at below-market terms to be troubled debt restructurings if the below-market terms represent a concession due to the borrower’s troubled financial condition. The Company classifies troubled debt restructurings as impaired loans. For the loans that are not considered to be collateral-dependent, management measures troubled debt restructurings at the present value of estimated future cash flows using the loan’s effective rate at start of the loan. The Company reports the change in the present value of cash flows related to the passage of time as interest income. If the loan is considered to be collateral-dependent, impairment is measured based on the fair value of the collateral.

In accordance with industry standards, the Company classifies a loan as impaired if management has modified it as part of a troubled debt restructuring. However, troubled debt restructures, upon meeting certain performance conditions, are eligible to receive non-classified loan ratings (pass or watch) and to be moved out of non-accrual status. These loans continue to be included in total impaired loans but not necessarily in non-accrual or collateral-dependent loans.

The “Interagency Statement on Loan Modifications and Reporting for Financial Institutions Working with Customers Affected by the Coronavirus” was issued by banking regulators on March 22, 2020. This guidance encourages financial institutions to work prudently with borrowers who are or may be unable to meet their contractual payment obligations due to the effects of COVID-19.

Additionally, Section 4013 of the CARES Act further provided that loans modified due to the impact of COVID-19 that would otherwise be classified as TDRs under GAAP are not required to be so classified. Modifications within the scope of this relief were in effect from the period beginning March 1, 2020 until January 1, 2022.

In accordance with this guidance, we offered modifications to borrowers who were both impacted by COVID-19 and current on all principal and interest payments. As of December 31, 2022, the Company had no loans classified as non-TDR loan modifications due to COVID-19.

Loan Charge-offs

Management charges off loans or portions thereof when it determines the loans or portions of the loans are uncollectible. The Company evaluates collectability periodically on all loans classified as “Loans of Lesser Quality.” Key factors management uses in assessing a loan’s collectability are the financial condition of the borrower, the value of any secured collateral, and the terms of any workout agreement between the Company and the borrower. In workout situations, the Company charges off the amount deemed uncollectible due to the terms of the workout, the inability of the borrower to make agreed upon payments, and the value of the collateral securing the loan.

Credit Quality Indicators

The Company has established a loan grading system to assist its management in analyzing and monitoring the loan portfolio. The Company classifies loans it considers lesser quality (“classified loans”) as watch, special mention, substandard, doubtful, or loss assets. The loan grading system is as follows:

Pass:

The borrower has sufficient cash to fund debt services. The borrower may be able to obtain similar financing from other lenders with comparable terms. The risk of default is considered low.

Watch:

These loans exhibit potential or developing weaknesses that deserve extra attention from credit management personnel. If the developing weakness is not corrected or mitigated, there may be deterioration in the ability of the borrower to repay the debt in the future. Loans graded Watch must be reported to executive management and the Board of Managers. Potential for loss under adverse circumstances is elevated, but not foreseeable. Watch loans are considered pass loans.

Special mention:

These credit facilities exhibit potential or actual weaknesses that present a higher potential for loss under adverse circumstances, and deserve management’s close attention. If uncorrected, these weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the loan at some future date.

Substandard:

Loans and other credit extensions bearing this grade are considered to be inadequately protected by the current sound worth and debt service capacity of the borrower or of any pledged collateral. These obligations, even if apparently protected by collateral value, have well-defined weaknesses related to adverse financial, managerial, economic, ministry, or environmental conditions which have clearly jeopardized repayment of principal and interest as originally intended. Furthermore, there is the possibility that some future loss will be sustained if such weaknesses are not corrected.

Doubtful:

This classification consists of loans that display the properties of substandard loans with the added characteristic that the severity of the weaknesses makes collection or liquidation in full highly questionable or improbable based upon currently existing facts, conditions, and values. The probability of some loss is very high, but because of certain important and reasonably specific factors, the amount of loss cannot be exactly determined. Such pending factors could include merger or liquidation, additional capital injection, refinancing plans, or perfection of liens on additional collateral.

Loss:

Loans in this classification are considered uncollectible and cannot be justified as a viable asset. This classification does not mean the loan has absolutely no recovery value, but that it is neither practical nor desirable to defer writing off this loan even though partial recovery may be obtained in the future.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes two primary types of revenue: interest income and non-interest income.

Interest Income

The Company’s principal source of revenue is interest income from loans, which is not within the scope of ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers and all subsequent amendments to the ASU (collectively, "ASC 606"). Refer to the discussion in “Loans Receivable” above to understand the Company’s recognition of interest income.

Non-interest Income

Non-interest income includes revenue from various types of transactions and services provided to customers. Contracts with customers can include multiple services, which are accounted for as separate “performance obligations” if they are determined to be distinct. Our performance obligations to our customers are generally satisfied when we transfer the promised good or service to our customer, either at a point in time or over time. Revenue from a performance obligation transferred at a point in time is recognized at the time that the customer obtains control over the promised good or service. Revenue from our performance obligations satisfied over time are recognized in a manner that depicts our performance in transferring control of the good or service, which is generally measured based on time elapsed, as our customers simultaneously receive and consume the benefit of our services as they are provided.

Payment for the majority of our services is considered to be variable consideration, as the amount of revenues we expect to receive is subject to factors outside of our control, including market conditions. Variable consideration is only included in revenue when amounts are not subject to significant reversal, which is generally when uncertainty around the amount of revenue to be received is resolved.

Wealth advisory fees

Generally, management recognizes wealth advisory fees over time as the Company renders services to its clients. The Company receives these fees either based on a percentage of the market value of the assets under management, or as a fixed fee based on the services the Company provides to the client. The Company’s delivery of these services represents its related performance obligations. The Company typically collects the wealth advisory fees at the beginning of each quarter from the client’s account. Management recognizes these fees ratably over the related billing period as the Company fulfills its performance obligation. In addition, management recognizes any commissions or referral fees paid related to this revenue ratably over the related billing period as the Company fulfills its performance obligation.

Investment brokerage fees

Investment brokerage fees arise from the selling, distribution, and trade execution services. The Company’s execution of these services fulfills its related performance obligations.

The Company also offers sales and distribution services, and earns commissions through the sale of annuity and mutual fund products. The Company acts as an agent in these transactions and recognizes revenue at a point in time when the customer executes a contract with a product carrier. The Company may also receive trailing commissions and 12b-1 fees related to mutual fund and annuity products. Management recognizes this revenue in the period when it is earned, estimating the revenue if necessary based on the balance of the investment and the commission rate on the product.

The Company earns and recognizes trade execution commissions on the trade date, which is when the Company fulfills its performance obligation. Payment for the trade execution is due on the settlement date.

Lending fees

Lending fees represent charges earned for services we provide as part of the lending process, such as late charges, servicing fees, and documentation fees. The Company recognizes late charges as earned when they are paid. The Company recognizes revenue on other lending fees in the period in which the Company has performed the service.

Gains on sales of loans receivable

From time to time, the Company sells participation interests in loans receivable that it services. Upon completion of the loan sale, the Company recognizes a gain based on certain factors including the maturity date of the loan, the percentage of the loan sold and retained, and the servicing rate charged to the participant on the sold portion.

Gains on debt extinguishment

Gains on debt extinguishment arise from agreements reached with the Company’s lenders to reduce the principal amount on outstanding debt. The amount of the gain is determined by the difference between the cash paid and the amount of principal and interest that is relieved as stipulated by the agreement.

Gains/losses on sales of foreclosed assets

The Company records a gain or loss from the sale of foreclosed assets when control of the property transfers to the buyer, which generally occurs at the time of an executed deed. When the Company

finances the sale of a foreclosed asset to the buyer, the Company assesses whether the buyer is committed to perform their obligation under the contract and whether collectability of the transaction price is probable, among other factors. Once these criteria are met, the foreclosed asset is derecognized and the gain or loss on sale is recorded upon the transfer of control of the property to the buyer. In determining the gain or loss on the sale, the Company adjusts the transaction price and related gain (loss) on sale if a significant financing component is present.

Other non-interest income

Other non-interest income includes fees earned based on service contracts the Company has entered into with credit unions. The Company recognizes the revenue monthly based on the terms of the contracts, which require monthly payments for services the Company performs. Other non-interest income also includes realized income and gains on other investments.

Foreclosed Assets

Management records assets acquired through foreclosure or other proceedings at fair market value less estimated costs of disposal. Management determines the fair value at the date of foreclosure, which establishes a new cost for the asset. After foreclosure, the Company carries the asset at the lower of cost or fair value, less estimated costs of disposal. Management evaluates these real estate assets regularly to ensure that the recorded amount is supported by the current fair value and, if necessary, ensuring that valuation allowances reduce the carrying amount to fair value less estimated costs of disposal. Revenue and expense from the operation of the Company’s foreclosed assets and changes in the valuation allowance are included in net expenses from foreclosed assets. When the Company sells the foreclosed property, it recognizes a gain or loss on the sale equal to the difference between the net sales proceeds received and the carrying amount of the property.

Transfers of Financial Assets

Management accounts for transfers of financial assets as sales when the Company has surrendered control over the asset. Management deems the Company has surrendered control over transferred assets when:

● the assets have been isolated from the Company;

● the transferee obtains the right (free of conditions that constrain it from taking advantage of that right) to pledge or exchange the transferred asset; and

● the Company does not maintain effective control over the transferred asset through an agreement to repurchase it before its maturity.

The Company, from time to time, sells participation interests in mortgage loans it has originated or acquired. In order to recognize the transfer of a portion of a financial asset as a sale, the transferred portion, and any portion that continues to be held by the transferor must represent a participating interest, and the transfer of the participating interest must meet the conditions for surrender of control. To qualify as a participating interest:

● each portion of a financial asset must represent a proportionate ownership interest in an entire financial asset;

● from the date of transfer, all cash flows received from the entire financial asset must be divided proportionately among the participating interest holders in an amount equal to their respective share of ownership;

● the transfer must be made on a non-recourse basis (other than standard representations and warranties made under the loan participation sale agreement);

● the transfer may not be subordinate to any other participating interest holder; and

● no party has the right to pledge or exchange the entire financial asset.

If the transaction does not meet either the participating interest or surrender of control criteria, management accounts for it as a secured borrowing arrangement.

Under some circumstances, when the Company sells a participation in a wholly-owned loan receivable that it services, it retains loan-servicing rights, and records a servicing asset that is initially measured at fair value. As quoted market prices are generally not available for these assets, the Company estimates fair value based on the present value of future expected cash flows associated with the loan receivable. The Company amortizes servicing assets over the life of the associated receivable using the interest method. Any gain or loss recognized on the sale of a loan receivable depends in part on both the previous carrying amount of the financial asset involved in the sale, allocated between the asset sold and the interest that continues to be held by the Company based on its relative fair value at the date of transfer, and the proceeds received.

Property and Equipment

The Company states its furniture, fixtures, equipment, and leasehold improvements at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Management computes depreciation on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets. The useful lives of the Company’s assets range from three to seven years.

Debt Issuance Costs

The Company’s debt consists of borrowings from financial institutions and obligations to investors incurred through the sale of investor notes. Management presents debt net of debt issuance costs, and amortizes debt issuance costs into interest expense over the contractual terms of the debt using the straight-line method.

Employee Benefit Plans

The Company records contributions to the qualified employee retirement plan as compensation cost in the period incurred. The Company has also entered into a Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (the “SERP”) with its President and Chief Executive Officer, Joseph W. Turner, Jr. The Company records expenses related to the SERP based on the likelihood of the benefits vesting.

Leases

We recognize right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet for leases with lease terms longer than 12 months. The recognition, measurement and presentation of lease expenses and cash flows depend on the classification by the lessee as a finance or operating lease.

The Company has operating leases for real estate. Its leases have remaining lease terms of 3 months to 2 years. Its lease agreements may include renewal or termination options for varying periods that are generally at our discretion. In lease term, the Company only includes those periods related to renewal options we are reasonably certain to exercise. However, the Company generally does not include these renewal options as it is not reasonably certain to renew at the lease commencement date. This determination is based on management’s consideration of certain economic, strategic, and other factors that are evaluated at lease commencement date and reevaluate throughout the lease term. Some leases also include options to terminate the leases and the Company only includes those periods beyond the termination date if management is reasonably certain not to exercise the termination option.

Some leasing arrangements require variable payments that are dependent on usage or may vary for other reasons, such as payments for insurance and tax payments. The variable part of lease payments is not included in our ROU assets or lease liabilities. Rather, variable payments, other than those dependent upon an index or rate, are expensed when the obligation for those payments is incurred and are included in lease expenses recorded in selling and administrative expenses on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

If any of the lease agreements have both lease and non-lease components, the Company treats those as a single lease component for all underlying asset classes. Accordingly, all expenses associated with a lease contract are accounted for as lease expenses.

Leases with a term of 12 months or less are not recognized on the balance sheet, but rather expensed on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Income Taxes

The Company has elected to be treated as a partnership for income tax purposes. Therefore, the Company passes through its income and expenses to its members for tax reporting purposes.

Tesoro Hills, LLC, is a joint venture in which the Company has an investment. Tesoro Hills, according to its operating agreement, has elected to be treated as a partnership for income tax purposes.

The Company and MP Securities are subject to a California LLC fee.

The Company uses a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the consolidated financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken in a tax return. The Company recognizes benefits from tax positions in the consolidated financial statements only when it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained upon examination by the appropriate taxing authority that would have full knowledge of all relevant information. A tax position that meets the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold is measured at the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50 percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. Tax positions that previously failed to meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold are recognized in the first subsequent financial reporting period in which that threshold is met. Management derecognizes previously recognized tax positions that no longer meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold in the first subsequent financial reporting period in which that threshold is no longer met.

New accounting guidance

Accounting Standards Pending Adoption

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.” ASU 2016-13 introduces an approach based on expected losses to estimate credit losses on certain types of financial instruments. ASU 2016-13 also modifies the impairment model for available-for-sale debt securities and provides for a simplified accounting model for purchased financial assets with credit deterioration since their origination. The guidance requires companies to apply the requirements in the year of adoption through cumulative adjustment with some aspects of the update requiring a prospective transition approach.

In October 2019, the FASB adopted a two-bucket approach to stagger the effective date for the credit losses standard for the fiscal years beginning after December 31, 2022 for certain entities,

including certain Securities and Exchange Commission filers, public business entities, and private companies. As a smaller reporting company, the Company is eligible for delayed implementation of the standard. The Company’s preliminary evaluation indicates the provisions of ASU No. 2016-13 are expected to affect the level of the allowance for loan losses on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Management has gathered all necessary data and reviewed potential methods to calculate the expected credit losses. The Company will use a third-party software solution to assist with the adoption of the standard.

The ASU allows for several different methods of calculating the Allowance for Credit Losses (“ACL”) and based on its analysis of observable data, the Company determined the probability of default method to be the most appropriate for all its loans.

The Company expects to record a one-time cumulative effect adjustment to the allowance for credit losses in retained earnings on the consolidated balance sheet as of the beginning of 2023, as is required in the guidance. The Company believes there will be an adjustment to the allowance of up to $300 thousand. In addition, the Company expects the allowance for unfunded commitments to be immaterial.

The qualitative impact of the new accounting standard will still be directed by many of the same factors that impacted the previous methodology for calculating the allowance, including but not limited to, quality and experience of staff, changes in the value of collateral, concentrations of credit in loan types and changes to lending policies. In addition, the Company will also use reasonable and supportable forecasts.

The actual impact from adopting this guidance may be subject to change based upon refinement and finalization of the model and associated assumptions, the implementation and testing of certain internal controls ensuring model effectiveness and management’s judgment.

In March 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-02, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures. This ASU eliminates the accounting guidance for troubled debt restructurings (TDRs) by creditors in Subtopic 310-40, Receivables - Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors, while adding disclosures for certain loan restructurings by creditors when a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty. This guidance requires an entity to determine whether the modification results in a new loan or a continuation of an existing loan. Additionally, the ASU requires disclosure of current period gross write-offs by year of origination for financing receivables. This ASU is effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. The Company adopted this guidance on January 1, 2023 and it did not have a material impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements.

The Company negotiates pass-through interest rates on loan participation interests sold to ACCU on a loan-by-loan basis. Management believes these terms are equivalent to those that prevail in arm’s length transactions.

Effective August 9, 2021, the Company entered into a Master Loan Participation Purchase and Sale Agreement (“the Master LP Agreement”) with ACCU. The Master LP Agreement is intended to facilitate the sale to ACCU of small participation interests in the Company’s originated loans. As a part of any transaction conducted under the Master LP Agreement, the borrower of the loan being sold would become a member of ACCU, thereby meeting the requirements of NCUA regulations that govern loan participation purchases by credit unions. This allows the Company to sell additional participations in the loan to other credit unions.

Sales made under the Master LP Agreement are done on a recourse basis, requiring the Company to repurchase the participation interest in the event of default by the borrower. Under a separate Deposit Control Agreement reached in conjunction with the Master LP Agreement, the Company deposits cash on a one-to-one basis as collateral to secure the participation interest sold to ACCU. This cash is considered restricted cash. The Company retains the ability to sell loan participation interests to ACCU outside of the Master LP Agreement.

As of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, $7 thousand and $17 thousand had been sold and was outstanding under this agreement. This has been classified on the balance sheet as secured borrowings. The Company has deposited equal amounts of cash in an account at ACCU as collateral for these borrowings.

As part of this agreement, the Company retained the right to service the loan, and it charges NFCU a fee for servicing the loan. Management believes the terms of the agreement are equivalent to those that prevail in arm’s length transactions for similar agreements entered into by other credit unions.

From time to time, the Company may purchase a loan participation interest from a related party. The Company and its related party will negotiate in good faith the terms and conditions of such a purchase and in accordance with the Company’s related party procedures and governance practices. Each party must approve such a purchase after full disclosure of the related party transaction and must include terms and conditions that would normally be included in arm’s length transactions conducted by independent parties.

Investor Notes Sold:

From time to time, the Company’s Board and members of its executive management team have purchased investor notes from the Company or have purchased investment products through MP Securities. Investor notes payable owned by related parties totaled $2.3 million and $261 thousand at December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

Transactions with Subsidiaries

The Company has entered into several agreements with its subsidiary, MP Securities. The Company eliminates the income and expense related to these agreements in the consolidated financial statements. MP Securities serves as the managing broker for the Company’s public and private placement note offerings. MP Securities receives compensation related to these broker-dealer services ranging from 0.25% to 5.50% over the life of a note. The amount of the compensation depends on the length of the note and the terms of the offering under which MP Securities sold the note.

The Company also has entered into an Administrative Services Agreement with MP Securities. The Administrative Services Agreement provides services such as the use of office space, use of equipment, including computers and phones, and payroll and personnel services. The agreement stipulates that MP Securities will provide ministerial, compliance, marketing, operational, and investor relations-related services in relation to the Company’s investor note program. As stated above, the Company eliminates all intercompany transactions related to this agreement in its consolidated financial statements.

The Company’s subsidiary, MPF, serves as the collateral agent for the Company’s Secured Notes. The Company’s Prospectus for its Class 1A Notes and the private placement memorandum for the Company’s Secured Notes Offering describe the terms of these agreements.

Related Party Transaction Policy

The Board has adopted a Related Party Transaction Policy to assist in evaluating transactions the Company may enter into with a related party. Under this policy, a majority of the members of the Company’s Board and majority of its independent Board members must approve a material transaction that it enters into with a related party. As a result, all transactions that the Company undertakes with an affiliate or a related party are entered into on terms believed by management to be no less favorable than are available from unaffiliated third parties. In addition, a majority of the Company’s independent Board members must approve these transactions.

Loans Receivable and Allowance for Loan Losses

Note 4. Loans Receivable and Allowance for Loan Losses

The Company’s loan portfolio is comprised of one segment – commercial loans. See “Note 1 – Loan Portfolio Segments and Classes” to the Financial Statements. The loans fall into four classes:

● wholly-owned loans that are either unsecured or for which the Company possesses a junior collateral position;

● participated loans purchased for which the Company possesses the first collateral position; and

● participated loans purchased for which the Company possesses a junior collateral position.

The Company primarily makes or purchases participations in loans that are made to evangelical churches and related organizations. The purpose of these loans is to purchase, construct, or improve facilities. Occasionally the company purchases conventional commercial loans to meet the Company’s liquidity and yield goals as well as to diversify the Company’s loan portfolio. Loan maturities extend through 2037. The loan portfolio had a weighted average rate of 6.46% and 6.21% as of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. Loans receivable at December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively include $7 thousand and $17 thousand in loan participations transferred under a recourse agreement.

Impaired Loans

The following tables are summaries of impaired loans by loan class as of and for the years ended years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The unpaid principal balance reflects the contractual principal outstanding on the loan. Included in the balance of impaired loans are troubled debt restructurings that have been performing and have been upgraded to pass or watch since the modification date. The recorded balance reflects the unpaid principal balance less any interest payments that have been recorded against principal. The recorded investment reflects the recorded balance, plus accrued interest, less discounts taken. The related allowance reflects specific reserves taken on the impaired loans (dollars in thousands):

Beginning in April, 2020, the Company has taken measures to assist borrowers adversely affected by COVID-19 by deferring principal and/or interest payments. The concessions granted met the qualifications under Section 4013 of the CARES Act, and, as a result, the Company elected not to account for these modifications as troubled debt restructurings. The Company restructured one loan during the year ended December 31, 2021 that qualified as a CARES Act modification and was not accounted for as a troubled debt restructuring. This loan had an outstanding balance of $1.3 million at the time of the modification. The borrower resumed making contractual payment prior to December 31, 2021. As of December 31, 2021, no loans were under CARES Act deferrals. The Company did not restructure any loans that qualified as CARES Act modifications during the year ended December 31, 2022.

The Company restructured four loans during the year ended December 31, 2022. The Company restructured two loans during the year ended December 31, 2021.

Of the four loans the Company restructured in 2022, two were granted extended maturity dates when the borrower’s financial condition could not support a full renewal. One of these loans was a construction loan that still had amounts remaining to be drawn. Two months after the restructure, the borrower met the appropriate conditions, and the Company funded the remainder of the approved amount of the construction draws. The Company then renewed and converted the loan to an amortizing commercial real estate loan. One restructured loan was granted a period of six months of interest-only payments; the borrower had returned to making principal and interest payments prior to December 31, 2022. Finally, the Company reached a forbearance agreement with a borrower to restructure a loan, granting a reduced interest rate and interest-only payments for one year. None of the loans restructured during the year ended December 31, 2022 subsequently defaulted.

The Company had two previously restructured loans that were past maturity as of December 31, 2022. The Company has entered into forbearance agreements with the borrowers and is evaluating what actions it should undertake to protect its investment on these loans. These forbearance agreements include reduced monthly payment amounts and additional reporting requirements.

For loans modified in a troubled debt restructuring, the Company monitors borrower performance according to the terms of the restructure to determine whether there are any early indicators for future default. Management regularly evaluates loans modified in a troubled debt restructuring for potential further impairment and will make adjustments to the risk ratings and specific reserves associated with troubled debt restructurings as deemed necessary.

As of December 31, 2022, no additional funds were committed to be advanced in connection with loans modified as troubled debt restructurings.

Note 5. Investments

Joint Venture

In December 2015, the Company finalized an agreement with Intertex Property Management, Inc., a California corporation, to enter into a joint venture to form Tesoro Hills, LLC (the “Valencia Hills Project”). Intertex is a managing member of the LLC, with authority to direct operations. The Company is a non-managing member with no authority beyond limited rights granted to the Company by the operating agreement. The Valencia Hills Project is a joint venture that will develop and market property formerly classified by the Company as a foreclosed asset. In January 2016, the Company transferred ownership in the foreclosed asset to the Valencia Hills Project. In addition, the Company reclassified the carrying value of the property from foreclosed assets to an investment in a joint venture. The Company’s initial investment in the joint venture was $900 thousand and represented 100% of the ownership of the joint venture. The Company’s ownership percentage in the joint venture was 74% as of December 31, 2022 and 2021.

The value of the Company’s investment in the joint venture was $870 thousand and $882 thousand, as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Management’s impairment analysis of the investment as of December 31, 2022 has determined that the investment is not impaired.

Term-Debt Credit Facility

The Company had a secured term-debt credit facility with OSK VII, LLC, an investment fund (“OSK”). The original obligation on this debt was an $87.3 million credit facility refinancing transaction, which was entered into on November 4, 2011, with the National Credit Union Administration Board As Liquidating Agent of Members United Corporate Federal Credit Union. On June 28, 2019, NCUA assigned all its rights, title, and interest under the credit facility to OSK. The facility was non-revolving and did not include an option to renew or extend additional credit. Additionally, the facility does not contain a prepayment penalty. Under the terms of the credit facility, the Company was required to maintain a minimum collateralization ratio of at least 120%. If at any time the Company had failed to maintain its required minimum collateralization ratio, it

would have been required to deliver cash or qualifying mortgage loans in an amount sufficient to meet its obligation to maintain a minimum collateralization ratio. The facility’s interest rate was 2.525%. The collateral securing the facility at December 31, 2021 satisfied the 120% minimum ratio. In addition, the credit facility included several borrower covenants. The Company was in compliance with these covenants as of December 31, 2021. On March 5, 2021, the Company made a $14.3 million principal prepayment on this facility and realized a $2.3 million gain on the extinguishment of debt because of this payment. On January 6, 2022, the Company made a $16.5 million principal prepayment on this facility and realized a $1.5 million gain on the extinguishment of debt. On June 29, 2022, and September 29, 2022, the Company made $3.3 million principal prepayments on this facility and realized $300 thousand gains on the extinguishment of debt on of each of these payments. The Company was in compliance with its covenants under the facility at the time of these payments.

On November 4, 2022, the Company paid off the remaining $5.4 million in outstanding principal on the term-debt credit facility. The term-debt credit facility is now terminated and satisfied in whole. The Company negotiated to settle the remaining $5.4 million in principal outstanding at a discount resulting in a gain on debt extinguishment of $437 thousand.

Paycheck Protection Program Loan

On April 27, 2020, MP Securities applied for and received a Paycheck Protection Program loan (“PPP Loan”) granted under the CARES Act in the amount of $111 thousand. According to the terms of the program, as administered by the Small Business Association (“SBA”), payments on the loan were deferred and deferred interest was capitalized into the principal balance of the loan. In addition, qualifying amounts of the principal balance of the loan and deferred interest were eligible to be forgiven if MP Securities retained employees and maintained salary levels for its existing employees. On March 5, 2021, the SBA forgave all principal and accrued interest due on this loan.

KCT Lines of Credit

On September 30, 2020, Ministry Partners Investment Company, LLC, entered into a Loan and Security Agreement with KCT Credit Union, an Illinois state chartered financial institution. On June 6, 2022, the Company and KCT mutually agreed to terminate this facility and entered into two new facilities. The first facility, the KCT Warehouse LOC, is a $5.0 million short-term demand credit facility with a one-year maturity date ending on June 6, 2023. The KCT Warehouse LOC will automatically renew for another one-year term unless either party furnishes written notice at least 30 days prior to the termination date that it does not intend to renew the agreement. The Company has secured the KCT Warehouse LOC with certain of its mortgage loan investments.

The Company may draw funds on the KCT Warehouse LOC at any time until the line is fully drawn. Repayment of each advance is due 120 days after the advance is made or earlier if a collateral loan becomes more than 60 days delinquent, and the Company fails to cure such deficiency. The interest rate on the KCT Warehouse LOC is equal to the prime rate at the time of the draw plus 0.50%. At December 31, 2022, the interest rate on the KCT Warehouse LOC was 5.25%. To secure its obligations under the KCT Warehouse LOC, the Company has agreed to grant a priority first lien and security interest in certain of its mortgage loan investments and maintain a minimum collateralization ratio measured by taking outstanding balance of mortgage notes pledged under the facility as compared to the total amount of principal owed on the KCT Warehouse LOC. The minimum ratio must equal at least 120%. The KCT Warehouse LOC also requires the Company to maintain a deposit of 25% of the total line limit to borrow on the facility. In September 2022, the Company purchased a $1.25 million certificate of deposit from KCT that satisfies this requirement. A total of $6.2 million in loans were pledged on this facility as of December 31, 2022. At December 31, 2022, there were no outstanding borrowings on the KCT Warehouse LOC.

In addition, on June 6, 2022, the Company entered into an Operating Line of Credit Loan and Security Agreement with the KCT, the KCT Operating LOC. The KCT Operating LOC is a $5.0 million short-term demand credit facility with a one-year maturity date ending on June 6, 2023. The KCT Operating LOC will automatically renew for another one-year term unless either party furnishes written notice at least 30 days prior to the termination date that it does not intend to renew the agreement. The Company must secure a minimum of 25% of the line with cash while the remaining portion of the KCT Operating LOC may be secured by certain of its mortgage loan investments.

The Company may draw funds on the KCT Operating LOC at any time until the line is fully drawn. Repayment by the termination date or earlier if a collateral loan becomes more than 60 days delinquent, and the Company fails to cure such deficiency. The interest rate on the KCT Warehouse LOC is equal to the prime rate at the time of the draw plus 0.50%. At December 31, 2022, the interest rate on the KCT Warehouse LOC was 5.25%. To secure its obligations under the KCT Operating LOC, the Company has agreed to grant a priority first lien and security interest in certain of its mortgage loan investments and maintain a minimum collateralization ratio measured by taking the outstanding balance of mortgage notes pledged under the facility as compared to the total amount of principal owed less the secured cash on the KCT Operating LOC. The minimum ratio must equal at least 120%. A total of $4.8 million in loans were pledged on this facility as of December 31, 2022. At December 31, 2022, there were no outstanding borrowings on the KCT Operating LOC.

The KCT Operating LOC and the KCT Warehouse LOC both contain typical affirmative covenants for a credit facility of this nature, including requiring that the Company maintain the pledged

collateral free of liens and encumbrances, timely pay the amounts due under the facility and provide KCT with current financial statements and monthly reports. The Company will also be required to comply with certain financial covenants including maintaining a net worth of at least $5.0 million dollars, ensuring that its net worth is equal to at least 5% of its total liabilities and that it will maintain minimum liquidity that equals or exceeds 120% of the outstanding amount owed under the KCT Operating LOC and the KCT Warehouse LOC at the end of each calendar month.

ACCU Line of Credit

On September 23, 2021, Ministry Partners Investment Company, LLC, entered into a Loan and Security Agreement with ACCU (“ACCU LOC”). The ACCU LOC is a revolving $5.0 million short-term demand credit facility with a one-year maturity date of September 23, 2023. The facility carried an outstanding balance of $3.0 million and $2.0 million at December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. The interest rate on the facility is equal to the Prime Rate as published in the Wall Street Journal plus 0.75%. This rate will be adjusted on January 10^th each year to account for the current Prime Rate but cannot be adjusted below 4.00%. The interest rate on the ACCU LOC was 4.00% on December 31, 2022. The ACCU LOC will automatically renew for one additional one-year term unless either party furnishes written notice at least thirty (30) days prior to the termination date that it does not intend to renew the agreement.

The Company may draw funds on the ACCU LOC at any time until the line is fully drawn. All outstanding principal and interest amounts are due on the maturity date. To secure its obligations under the ACCU LOC, the Company has agreed to grant a priority first lien and security interest in certain of its mortgage loan investments and maintain a minimum collateralization ratio measured by taking outstanding balance of mortgage notes pledged under the facility as compared to the total amount of principal owed on the ACCU LOC. The minimum ratio must equal at least 120%. The Company must also maintain minimum liquidity that equals or exceeds $10.0 million at all times during the term of the loan. The ACCU LOC contains typical affirmative covenants for a credit facility of this nature. The Company was in compliance with these covenants at years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021. A total of $6.8 million in loans were pledged on this facility as of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

ACCU Secured Borrowings

As detailed in Note 3: Related Party Transactions, on August 9, 2021, the Company entered into a Master Loan Participation Purchase and Sale Agreement with ACCU. The participations sold under the Master LP Agreement are considered secured borrowings and are presented as such on the Company’s balance sheet. $7 thousand and $17 thousand in secured borrowings were outstanding under the Master LP Agreement as of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

In January 2015, the Company registered its Class 1 Notes with the SEC. The Company discontinued the sale of its Class 1 Note Offering when it expired on December 31, 2017. The offering included two categories of notes, including a fixed interest note and a variable interest note. The Class 1 Notes contain restrictive covenants pertaining to paying dividends, making redemptions, acquiring, purchasing, or making certain payments, requiring the maintenance of minimum tangible net worth, limitations on the issuance of additional notes, and incurring of indebtedness. The Company was in compliance with these covenants as of December 31, 2021. The Company issued the Class 1 Notes under a Trust Indenture between the Company and U.S. Bank. There were no outstanding Class 1 Notes as of December 31, 2022.

Class 1A Offering

In February 2018, the Company launched its Class 1A Notes Offering. Pursuant to a Registration Statement declared effective on February 27, 2018, the Company registered $90 million of its Class 1A Notes in two series – fixed and variable notes. The Class 1A Notes are unsecured. The interest rate paid on the Fixed Series Notes is determined in reference to a Constant Maturity Treasury Index published by the U.S. Department of Treasury (“CMT Index”) in effect on the date that the note is issued plus a rate spread as described in the Company’s Class 1A Prospectus. The variable index in effect on the date the interest rate is set determines the interest rate paid on a Variable Series Note. The CMT Index refers to the Constant Maturity Treasury rates published by the U.S. Department of Treasury for actively traded Treasury securities. The variable index is equal to the 3-month LIBOR rate. The Company issued the Class 1A Notes under a Trust Indenture entered into between the Company and U.S. Bank.

2021 Class A Offering

In January 2021, the Company launched its 2021 Class A Notes Offering. Pursuant to a Registration Statement declared effective on January 8, 2021, the Company registered $125 million of its 2021 Class A Notes in two series – fixed and variable notes. The 2021 Class A Notes are unsecured. Like the Class 1A Notes Offering, the interest rate paid on the Fixed Series Notes is determined in reference to a CMT Index published by the U.S. Department of Treasury in effect on the date that the note is issued plus a rate spread as described in the Company’s 2021 Class A Prospectus. The variable index in effect on the date the interest rate is set determines the interest rate paid on a Variable Series Note. The CMT Index refers to the Constant Maturity Treasury rates published by the U.S. Department of Treasury for actively traded Treasury securities. The variable index is equal to the 3-month LIBOR rate. The Company issued the 2021 Class A Notes under a Trust Indenture entered into by and between the Company and U.S. Bank.

Private Offerings

Series 1 Subordinated Capital Notes (“Subordinated Notes”)

In June 2018, the Company renewed the offer and sale of its Subordinated Notes initially launched in February 2013. The Company offers the notes pursuant to a limited private offering to qualified investors that meet the requirements of Rule 506 of Regulation D. The Company offers the Subordinated Notes with maturity terms from 12 to 60 months at an interest rate fixed on the date of issuance, as determined by the then current seven-day average rate reported by the U.S. Federal Reserve Board for interest rate swaps.

Under the Subordinated Notes offering, the Company is subject to certain covenants, including limitations on restricted payments, limitations on the amount of notes that it can sell, restrictions on mergers and acquisitions, and proper maintenance of books and records.

Commitments and Contingencies

Note 12. Commitments and Contingencies

Unfunded Commitments

The Company is a party to credit-related financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include undisbursed loans, un-advanced lines of credit, and standby letters of credit. Such commitments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the balance sheet.

The contractual amount of these commitments represents the Company’s exposure to credit loss. The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments as it does for on-balance-sheet instruments.

The table below shows the outstanding financial instruments whose contract amounts represent credit risk (dollars in thousands):

	Contract Amount at:
	December 31, 2022		December 31, 2021
Undisbursed loans	$	355	$	270

Undisbursed loans are commitments for possible future extensions of credit to existing customers. These loans are sometimes unsecured and the borrower may not necessarily draw upon the line the total amount of the commitment. Commitments to extend credit are generally at variable rates.

Operating Leases

The Company has lease agreements for its offices in Brea and Fresno, California. The Brea office lease expires in December 2023. The lease does not contain any additional options to renew. The Fresno office lease expires in April 2025. There are no options to renew in the lease agreement. The Company also has a lease agreement for a vehicle used by management. The lease for the vehicle terminates in December 2024. The Company has determined that these leases are operating leases.

Preferred And Common Units Under LLC Structure

Note 14. Preferred and Common Units Under LLC Structure

Holders of the Series A Preferred Units are entitled to receive a quarterly cash dividend that is 25 basis points higher than the one-year LIBOR rate in effect on the last day of the calendar month for which the preferred return is approved. The Company has also agreed to set aside an annual amount equal to 10% of its net profits earned for any year, after subtracting from profits the quarterly Series A Preferred Unit dividends paid, for distribution to its Series A Preferred Unit holders.

The Series A Preferred Units have a liquidation preference of $100 per unit and have no voting rights. They are also subject to redemption in whole or in part at the Company’s election on December 31 of any year for an amount equal to the liquidation preference of each unit, plus any accrued and declared but unpaid quarterly dividends and preferred distributions on such units. The Series A Preferred Units have priority as to earnings and distributions over the Common Units. The resale of the Company’s Series A Preferred Units and Common Units are subject to the Company’s first right of refusal to purchase units proposed to be transferred. Upon the Company’s failure to pay quarterly dividends for four consecutive quarters, the holders of the Series A Preferred Units have the right to appoint two managers to its Board of Managers.

The Class A Common Units have voting rights, but have no liquidation preference or rights to dividends, unless declared.

Retirement Plans

Note 15. Retirement Plans

401(k)

All of the Company’s employees are eligible to participate in the Automated Data Processing, Inc. (“ADP”) 401(k) plan effective as of the date their employment commences. No minimum service is required and the minimum age is 21. Each employee may elect voluntary contributions not to exceed 86% of salary, subject to certain limits based on U.S. tax law. The plan has a matching program, which qualifies as a Safe Harbor 401(k) plan. As a Safe Harbor Section 401(k) plan, the Company matches each eligible employee’s contribution, dollar for dollar, up to 3% of the employee’s compensation, and 50% of the employee’s contribution that exceeds 3% of their compensation, up to a maximum contribution of 5% of the employee’s compensation. Company matching contributions for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 were $80 thousand and $67 thousand, respectively.

Profit Sharing

The profit sharing plan is for all employees who, at the end of the calendar year, are at least 21 years old, still employed, and have at least 900 hours of service during the plan year. The Company’s Board of Managers determines the amount annually contributed on behalf of each qualified employee. The Company determines the amount by calculating it as a percentage of the eligible employee’s annual earnings. Plan forfeitures are used to reduce the Company’s annual contribution. The Company did not make or approve a profit sharing contribution to the plan during the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021.

Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan

On March 30, 2022, the Company entered into a Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (the “SERP”) with its President and Chief Executive Officer, Joseph W. Turner, Jr. The SERP is an unfunded non-qualified plan that is intended to provide Mr. Turner with a fixed benefit over a ten-year period after Mr. Turner incurs a separation from service with the Company. The SERP has been established as a supplemental retirement and death benefits arrangement that conforms with the provisions of Section 409(A) of the Internal Revenue Code. If Mr. Turner retires on or after his expected retirement date, he will be entitled to receive $60,000 per year over a ten-year period, payable in equal monthly installments commencing the first day of the month following his separation from service.

For purposes of the SERP, Mr. Turner’s accrued benefit is subject to a maximum sum of $600,000, with payments made annually in equal monthly installments over a ten-year period. The Company is liable for the entire amount of this benefit unless Mr. Turner incurs a separation of service prior to the vesting date in August 2024. The Company’s management has determined that such a separation is unlikely to occur prior to the vesting date and has accrued the entire benefit as of December 31, 2022.

Fair Value Measurements

Fair Value Measurements [Abstract]

Fair Value Measurements

Note 16. Fair Value Measurements

Fair Value Measurements Using Fair Value Hierarchy

The Company classifies measurements of fair value within a hierarchy based upon inputs that give the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. The Company did not change its methodology in measuring fair value during the year ended December 31, 2022. The fair value hierarchy is as follows:

● Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

● Level 2 inputs include:

o quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets,

o quoted prices for identical assets and liabilities in inactive markets,

o inputs that are observable for the asset or liability (such as interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risks, etc.); or

o inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or by other means.

● Level 3 inputs are unobservable and reflect an entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the assets or liabilities.

In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls has been determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, and considers factors specific to the asset or liability.

Management uses judgment in estimating the fair value of the Company’s financial instruments; however, there are inherent weaknesses in any estimation technique. Therefore, for substantially all financial instruments, the fair value estimates presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts the Company could have realized in a sales transaction at December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

The Company used the following methods and assumptions to estimate the fair value of financial instruments:

● Cash – The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheets approximate fair value for cash.

● Certificates of deposit – Management estimates fair value by using a present value discounted cash flow with a discount rate approximating the current market rate for similar assets. Management classifies certificates of deposits as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

● Loans (other than collateral-dependent impaired loans) – Management estimates fair value by discounting the future cash flows of the loans. The discount rate the Company uses is the current average rates at which it would make loans to borrowers with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities. Also included is $7 thousand of loan participations transferred under a recourse agreement.

● Investments in joint venture – Management estimates fair value by analyzing the operations and marketability of the underlying investment to determine if the investment is other-than-temporarily impaired.

● Other investments – Management estimates fair value by determining the whether there is an indication of potential lack of performance on the part of the insurance companies in which the investments are made, and whether those indications would impair the investments.

● Investor Notes Payable – Management estimates the fair value of fixed maturity notes by discounting the future cash flows of the notes. The discount rate the Company uses is the rate currently offered for investor notes payable of similar remaining maturities. Company management estimates the discount rate by using market rates that reflect the interest rate risk inherent in the notes.

● Lines of Credit, Term-debt, Other Secured Borrowings – Management estimates the fair value of borrowings from financial institutions discounting the future cash flows of the borrowings. The discount rate the Company uses is the current incremental borrowing rate for similar types of borrowing arrangements.

● Off-Balance Sheet Instruments – Management determines the fair value of loan commitments on fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining term of the agreements and the counterparties’ credit standing. The fair value of loan commitments is insignificant at December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

Fair Value Measured on a Nonrecurring Basis

The Company measures certain assets at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. On these assets, the Company only makes fair value adjustments in certain circumstances (for example, when there is evidence of impairment). The following table presents the fair value of assets measured on a nonrecurring basis (dollars in thousands):

	Fair Value Measurements Using:
	Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets (Level 1)		Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2)		Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3)		Total

Foreclosed assets (net of allowance)		—		—		301		301
Total	$	—	$	—	$	7,000	$	7,000

The following table presents activity in Level 3 assets for those assets in which there were purchases or sales, or in which assets were transferred between levels. The only assets to have such activity during the year ended December 31, 2022 were other investments (dollars in thousands): 

	Other investments
Balance, December 31, 2021	$	--
Purchase of other investments		1,000
Realized income on other investments		18
Balance, December 31, 2022	$	1,018

Impaired Loans

The fair value of collateral-dependent impaired loans with specific allocations of the allowance for loan losses is generally based on recent real estate appraisals. Such fair values are obtained using independent appraisals, which the Company may discount due to age or other factors, which the Company considers to be Level 3 inputs. The range of these discounts is shown in the table below.

Foreclosed Assets

At the date of foreclosure, the Company initially records real estate acquired through foreclosure or other proceedings (foreclosed assets) at fair value less estimated costs of disposal, which establishes a new cost. After foreclosure, management periodically performs valuations on foreclosed assets. The company carries foreclosed assets held for sale at the lower of cost or fair value, less estimated costs of disposal. The fair values of real properties initially are determined based on appraisals. In some cases, management adjusts the appraised values for various factors including age of the appraisal, age of comparable properties included in the appraisal, and known changes in the market or in the collateral. The Company makes subsequent valuations of the real properties based either on

management estimates or on updated appraisals. If management makes significant adjustments to appraised values based on unobservable inputs, the Company categorizes foreclosed assets under Level 3. Otherwise, if management bases the foreclosed assets’ value on recent appraisals and the only adjustments made are for known contractual selling costs, the Company will categorize the foreclosed assets under Level 2.

Other Investments

Other investments comprise two indexed annuity insurance contracts. The Company measures fair value on its annuity investments on a nonrecurring basis. On these assets, the Company only makes fair value adjustments when there is evidence of impairment. As the principal amounts and recognized income on the annuities is guaranteed, only impairment of the assets would indicate a degradation in their fair value. The Company concluded that no impairment of the annuity investments existed at December 31, 2022. As such, the Company has determined that the carrying value of its other investments equals its fair value at December 31, 2022.

The table below summarizes the valuation methodologies used to measure the fair value adjustments for Level 3 assets recorded at fair value on a nonrecurring basis (dollars in thousands):

December 31, 2022
Assets	Fair Value (in thousands)		Valuation Techniques	Unobservable Input	Range (Weighted Average)

Segment Information [Abstract]

Segment Information

Note 18. Segment Information

The Company’s reportable segments are strategic business units that offer different products and services. The Company manages the segments separately because each business requires different management, personnel proficiencies, and marketing strategies.

The Company has two reportable segments that represent the primary businesses reported in the consolidated financial statements: the finance company (the parent company), and the investment advisor and insurance firm (MP Securities). The finance company segment uses funds from the sale of debt securities, income from operations, and the sale of loan participations to originate or purchase mortgage loans. The finance company also services loans. MP Securities generates fee income by selling debt securities and other investment and insurance products, as well as providing investment advisory and financial planning services.

The accounting policies applied to determine the segment information are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. Management accounts for intersegment revenues and expenses at amounts that assume the Company entered into the transaction with unrelated third parties at the current market prices at the time of the transaction. Management evaluates the performance of each segment based on net income or loss before provision for income taxes and LLC fees.

Financial information with respect to the reportable segments for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 is as follows (dollars in thousands):

Nature of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Nature of Business

Nature of Business

Throughout these notes to consolidated financial statements, we refer to Ministry Partners Investment Company, LLC and its subsidiaries as “the Company.” The Company was formed in California in 1991. The Company’s primary operations are financing commercial real property secured loans and providing investment services for the benefit of evangelical churches, ministries, and individuals. The Company funds its operations primarily through the sale of debt securities.

The Company’s wholly-owned subsidiaries are:

● Ministry Partners Funding, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“MPF”);

● MP Realty Services, Inc., a California corporation (“MP Realty”);

● Ministry Partners Securities, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“MP Securities”); and

● Ministry Partners for Christ, Inc., a not-for-profit Delaware corporation (“MPC”).

The Company formed MPF in 2007 and then deactivated the subsidiary on November 30, 2009. In December 2014, the Company reactivated MPF to enable it to serve as collateral agent for loans held as collateral for its Secured Investment Certificates.

The Company formed MP Realty in November 2009, and obtained a license to operate as a corporate real estate broker through the California Department of Real Estate on February 23, 2010. MP Realty has conducted limited operations to date.

The Company formed MP Securities on April 26, 2010 to provide investment and financial planning solutions for individuals, churches, charitable institutions, and faith-based organizations. MP Securities acts as the selling agent for the Company’s public and private placement notes.

The Company formed MPC on December 28, 2018 to be used exclusively for religious and charitable purposes within the meaning of Section 501(c)(3) of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (“IRC”). MPC is a not-for-profit corporation formed and organized under Delaware law. MPC makes charitable grants to Christian educational organizations, and provides accounting, consulting,

and financial expertise to aid evangelical Christian ministries. On August 23, 2019, the Internal Revenue Service granted MPC tax-exempt status as a private foundation under Section 501(c)(3) of the IRC. The MPC Board of Directors approved its first charitable grants during the year ended December 31, 2020.

Principles of Consolidation

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Ministry Partners Investment Company, LLC and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. Management eliminates all significant inter-company balances and transactions in consolidation.

Conversion to LLC

Conversion to LLC

Effective December 31, 2008, the Company converted from a corporation organized under California law to a California limited liability company. After this conversation, the separate existence of Ministry Partners Investment Corporation ceased and the entity continued by operation of law under the name Ministry Partners Investment Company, LLC. As an LLC, a group of managers provides oversight of the Company’s affairs. The managers have full, exclusive, and complete discretion, power, and authority to oversee the management of Company affairs. An Operating Agreement governs the Company’s management structure and governance procedures.

Risks and Uncertainties

Risks and Uncertainties

COVID 19, a global pandemic, adversely impacted the broad economy, affecting most industries, including businesses, schools, hospitality-, and travel-based employers, and disrupted the supply and distribution networks that deliver products to the consuming public. The process of recovery from the pandemic by U.S. churches, ministries, and faith-based organizations that the Company serves could have a material financial impact on the Company. If declining in-person attendance at churches and faith-based organizations continues as churches and ministries adjust to the long-term effects of the pandemic, charitable gifts and contributions made to ministries and churches could be adversely affected.

In accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) and interagency regulatory guidance issued in March 2020, loans that were modified under the terms of our COVID 19 Deferral Assistance Program were not considered troubled debt restructurings to the extent that they met the terms of such guidance under Section 4013 of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”). The CARES Act guidance applies to modifications made between March 1, 2020, and the earlier of January 2, 2022, or sixty (60) days after the end of the COVID 19 national emergency, as stipulated by the Consolidated Appropriations Act signed into law on December 31, 2020. The Company has not restructured a loan under the COVID 19 Deferral Assistance Program since the year ended December 31, 2021 and does not expect to use the program in the future.

In addition, Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, increasing inflation, and the disruption of global supply chains are putting strain on the U.S economy and the U.S. consumer. While it is not possible to know the full extent of the long-term impact of COVID 19 or these other current events, the Company is disclosing potentially material factors that could impact our business of which it is aware.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash equivalents include time deposits and all highly liquid debt instruments with original maturities of three months or less. The Company had demand deposits and money market deposit accounts as of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

The National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund insures a portion of the Company’s cash held at credit unions and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insures a portion of cash held by the Company at other financial institutions. The Company holds cash deposits that may exceed insured limits. Management does not expect to incur losses in these cash accounts.

The Company maintains cash accounts with Royal Bank of Canada Dain Rauscher (“RBC Dain”) as part of its clearing agreement for its securities-related activities, and with the Central Registration Depository (“CRD”) for regulatory purposes in connections with its investment advisory and securities-related business. The Company also maintains cash in an account with America’s Christian Credit Union (“ACCU”) as collateral for its secured borrowings. The Company classifies these accounts as restricted cash on its balance sheet.

Certificates of Deposit

Certificates of Deposit

Certificates of deposit include investments in certificates of deposit held at financial institutions that carry original maturities of greater than three months. The Company had $1.3 million in certificates with terms greater than three months as of December 31, 2022. The Company had no certificates of deposit with original maturities of greater than three months at December 31, 2021.

Use of Estimates

Use of Estimates

The Company’s creation of consolidated financial statements that conform to United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP") requires management to make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. These estimates govern areas such as the allowance for credit losses and the fair value of financial instruments and foreclosed assets. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Investments in Joint Venture

Investments in Joint Venture

In 2016, the Company entered into a joint venture agreement to develop and sell property we acquired as part of a Deed in Lieu of Foreclosure agreement reached with one of our borrowers. The joint venture owns a property located in Santa Clarita, California.

The Company accounts for its investment in the joint venture using the equity method of accounting. Under this method, the Company records its proportionate share of the joint venture’s net income or loss in the statement of operations.

On a periodic basis, or whenever events or circumstances arise that would necessitate analysis, management analyzes the Company’s investment in the joint venture for impairment. In this analysis, management compares the carrying value of the investment to the estimated value of the underlying real property. The Company records any impairment charges as a valuation allowance against the value of the asset. Management records these valuation changes as realized gains or losses on investment on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. The Company determined that the investment in the joint venture was not impaired as of December 31, 2022.

Loans Receivable

Loans Receivable

The Company reports loans that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future at their outstanding unpaid principal balance adjusted for an allowance for loan losses, deferred loan fees and costs, and loan discounts.

Interest Accrual on Loans Receivable

Interest Accrual on Loans Receivable

The Company accrues loan interest income daily. Management defers loan origination fees and costs generated in making a loan. The Company amortizes these fees and costs as an adjustment to the related loan yield using the interest method.

Loan discounts can arise from interest accrued and unpaid which the Company adds to loan principal balances when it restructures the loan. The Company does not accrete discounts to income

on impaired loans. However, when management determines that a previously impaired loan is no longer impaired, the Company begins accreting loan discounts to interest income over the term of the restructured loan. For loans purchased from third parties, loan discounts include differences between the purchase price and the recorded principal balance of the loan. The Company accretes these discounts to interest income over the term of the loan using the interest method.

Management considers a loan impaired if it concludes that the collection of principal or interest according to the terms of the loan agreement is doubtful. The Company stops the accrual of interest when management determines the loan is impaired.

For loans that the Company places on non-accrual status, management reverses all uncollected accrued interest against interest income. Management accounts for the interest on these loans on the cash basis or cost-recovery method until the loan qualifies for return to accrual status. It is not until all the principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured that the Company returns a loan to accrual status.

Allowance for Loan Losses

Allowance for Loan Losses

The Company sets aside an allowance for loan losses by charging the provision for loan losses account on the Company’s consolidated statements of income. This charge decreases the Company’s earnings. Management charges off the part of loan balances it believes it will not collect against the allowance. The Company credits subsequent recoveries, if any, to the allowance.

Loan Portfolio Segments and Classes

Management separates the loan portfolio into portfolio segments for purposes of evaluating the allowance for loan losses. A portfolio segment is defined as the level at which the Company develops and documents a systematic method for determining its allowance for loan losses. The Company segments the loan portfolio based on loan types and the underlying risk factors present in each loan type. Management periodically reviews and revises such risk factors, as it considers appropriate.

The Company’s loan portfolio consists of one segment – commercial loans. Management has segregated the loan portfolio into the following portfolio classes:

Loan Class	Class Description
Wholly-Owned First Collateral Position	Wholly-owned loans and the retained portion of loans originated by the Company and sold for which the Company possesses a senior lien on the collateral underlying the loan.
Wholly-Owned Junior Collateral Position	Wholly-owned loans and the retained portion of loans originated by the Company and sold for which the Company possesses a lien on the underlying collateral that is superseded by another lien on the same collateral. This class also contains any loans that are not secured. These loans present higher credit risk than loans for which the Company possesses a senior lien due to the increased risk of loss should the loan default.
Participations First Collateral Position	Participated loans purchased from another financial entity for which the Company possesses a senior lien on the collateral underlying the loan. Loan participations purchased may present higher credit risk than wholly owned loans because disposition and direction of actions regarding the management and collection of the loans must be coordinated and negotiated with the other participants, whose best interests regarding the loan may not align with those of the Company.
Participations Junior Collateral Position	Participated loans purchased from another financial entity for which the Company possesses a lien on the underlying collateral that is superseded by another lien on the same collateral. Loan participations in the junior collateral position loans have higher credit risk than wholly owned loans and participated loans purchased where the Company possesses a senior lien on the collateral. The increased risk is the result of the factors presented above relating to both junior lien positions and participations.

Allowance for Loan Loss Evaluation

Management evaluates the allowance for loan losses on a regular basis. The Company establishes the allowance for loan losses based upon its periodic review of several factors management believes influences the collectability of the loans, including:

● the Company’s loss history;

● the characteristics and volume of the loan portfolio;

● adverse conditions that may affect the borrower’s ability to repay;

● the estimated value of any secured collateral; and

● the current economic conditions.

This evaluation is subjective, as it requires estimates that are subject to significant revision as more information becomes available.

The allowance consists of general and specific components. The general component covers non-classified loans. Management bases the general reserve on the Company’s loss history adjusted for qualitative factors. These qualitative factors are significant factors management considers likely to cause estimated credit losses associated with the Company’s existing portfolio to differ from its historical loss experience. Management adjusts these factors on an on-going basis, some of which include:

● changes in lending policies and procedures, including changes in underwriting standards and collection;

● changes in national, regional, and local economic and industry conditions that affect the collectability of the portfolio, including the effects of the pandemic;

● changes in the volume and severity of past due loans, the volume of non-accrual loans, and the volume and severity of adversely classified loans;

● changes in the value of the collateral for collateral-dependent loans; and

● the effect of credit concentrations.

Loans that management has classified as impaired receive a specific reserve. For such loans, an allowance is established when the carrying value of that loan is higher than the amount management expects to collect. Management uses multiple approaches to determine the amount the Company expects to collect. These include the discounted cash flow method, using the loan’s underlying collateral value reduced by expected selling costs, or using the observable market price of the impaired loan.

Impairment Analysis

Impairment Analysis

Impaired loans include non-accrual loans, loans 90 days or more past due and still accruing, and restructured loans. Non-accrual loans are loans on which management has discontinued interest accruals. Restructured loans are loans in which the Company has granted the borrower a concession due to financial distress. Concessions are usually a reduction of the interest rate or a change in the original repayment terms.

The Company monitors impaired loans on an ongoing basis as part of management’s loan review and work out process. All loans in the loan portfolio are subject to impairment analysis. The Company reviews its loan portfolio monthly by examining several data points. These include

reviewing delinquency reports, any new information related to the financial condition of its borrowers, and any new appraisal or other collateral valuation. Through this process, the Company identifies potential impaired loans. Management generally deems a loan is impaired when current facts and circumstances indicate that it is probable a borrower will be unable to make payments according to the loan agreement. If management has not already deemed a loan impaired, it will classify the loan as non-accrual when it becomes 90 days or more past due.

Management considers several factors when determining impairment status. These factors include the loan’s payment status, the value of any secured collateral, and the probability of collecting scheduled payments when due. Management generally does not classify loans that experience minor payment delays or shortfalls as impaired. Management determines the significance of payment delays or shortfalls on a case-by-case basis, taking into consideration all of the circumstances surrounding the loan and the borrower. These circumstances include the length and reasons for the delay, the borrower’s payment history, and the amount of the shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed.

Management measures impairment on a loan-by-loan basis using one of three methods:

● the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate;

● the obtainable market price; or

● the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral-dependent.

Troubled Debt Restructurings

A troubled debt restructuring is a loan for which the Company, for reasons related to a borrower’s financial difficulties, grants a concession to a borrower that the Company would not otherwise consider. A restructuring of a loan usually involves an interest rate modification, extension of the maturity date, payment reduction, or reduction of accrued interest owed on the loan on a contingent or absolute basis.

Management considers loans that it renews at below-market terms to be troubled debt restructurings if the below-market terms represent a concession due to the borrower’s troubled financial condition. The Company classifies troubled debt restructurings as impaired loans. For the loans that are not considered to be collateral-dependent, management measures troubled debt restructurings at the present value of estimated future cash flows using the loan’s effective rate at start of the loan. The Company reports the change in the present value of cash flows related to the passage of time as interest income. If the loan is considered to be collateral-dependent, impairment is measured based on the fair value of the collateral.

In accordance with industry standards, the Company classifies a loan as impaired if management has modified it as part of a troubled debt restructuring. However, troubled debt restructures, upon meeting certain performance conditions, are eligible to receive non-classified loan ratings (pass or watch) and to be moved out of non-accrual status. These loans continue to be included in total impaired loans but not necessarily in non-accrual or collateral-dependent loans.

The “Interagency Statement on Loan Modifications and Reporting for Financial Institutions Working with Customers Affected by the Coronavirus” was issued by banking regulators on March 22, 2020. This guidance encourages financial institutions to work prudently with borrowers who are or may be unable to meet their contractual payment obligations due to the effects of COVID-19.

Additionally, Section 4013 of the CARES Act further provided that loans modified due to the impact of COVID-19 that would otherwise be classified as TDRs under GAAP are not required to be so classified. Modifications within the scope of this relief were in effect from the period beginning March 1, 2020 until January 1, 2022.

In accordance with this guidance, we offered modifications to borrowers who were both impacted by COVID-19 and current on all principal and interest payments. As of December 31, 2022, the Company had no loans classified as non-TDR loan modifications due to COVID-19.

Loan Charge-offs

Loan Charge-offs

Management charges off loans or portions thereof when it determines the loans or portions of the loans are uncollectible. The Company evaluates collectability periodically on all loans classified as “Loans of Lesser Quality.” Key factors management uses in assessing a loan’s collectability are the financial condition of the borrower, the value of any secured collateral, and the terms of any workout agreement between the Company and the borrower. In workout situations, the Company charges off the amount deemed uncollectible due to the terms of the workout, the inability of the borrower to make agreed upon payments, and the value of the collateral securing the loan.

Credit Quality Indicators

Credit Quality Indicators

The Company has established a loan grading system to assist its management in analyzing and monitoring the loan portfolio. The Company classifies loans it considers lesser quality (“classified loans”) as watch, special mention, substandard, doubtful, or loss assets. The loan grading system is as follows:

Pass:

The borrower has sufficient cash to fund debt services. The borrower may be able to obtain similar financing from other lenders with comparable terms. The risk of default is considered low.

Watch:

These loans exhibit potential or developing weaknesses that deserve extra attention from credit management personnel. If the developing weakness is not corrected or mitigated, there may be deterioration in the ability of the borrower to repay the debt in the future. Loans graded Watch must be reported to executive management and the Board of Managers. Potential for loss under adverse circumstances is elevated, but not foreseeable. Watch loans are considered pass loans.

Special mention:

These credit facilities exhibit potential or actual weaknesses that present a higher potential for loss under adverse circumstances, and deserve management’s close attention. If uncorrected, these weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the loan at some future date.

Substandard:

Loans and other credit extensions bearing this grade are considered to be inadequately protected by the current sound worth and debt service capacity of the borrower or of any pledged collateral. These obligations, even if apparently protected by collateral value, have well-defined weaknesses related to adverse financial, managerial, economic, ministry, or environmental conditions which have clearly jeopardized repayment of principal and interest as originally intended. Furthermore, there is the possibility that some future loss will be sustained if such weaknesses are not corrected.

Doubtful:

This classification consists of loans that display the properties of substandard loans with the added characteristic that the severity of the weaknesses makes collection or liquidation in full highly questionable or improbable based upon currently existing facts, conditions, and values. The probability of some loss is very high, but because of certain important and reasonably specific factors, the amount of loss cannot be exactly determined. Such pending factors could include merger or liquidation, additional capital injection, refinancing plans, or perfection of liens on additional collateral.

Loss:

Loans in this classification are considered uncollectible and cannot be justified as a viable asset. This classification does not mean the loan has absolutely no recovery value, but that it is neither practical nor desirable to defer writing off this loan even though partial recovery may be obtained in the future.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes two primary types of revenue: interest income and non-interest income.

Interest Income

Interest Income

The Company’s principal source of revenue is interest income from loans, which is not within the scope of ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers and all subsequent amendments to the ASU (collectively, "ASC 606"). Refer to the discussion in “Loans Receivable” above to understand the Company’s recognition of interest income.

Non-interest Income

Non-interest Income

Non-interest income includes revenue from various types of transactions and services provided to customers. Contracts with customers can include multiple services, which are accounted for as separate “performance obligations” if they are determined to be distinct. Our performance obligations to our customers are generally satisfied when we transfer the promised good or service to our customer, either at a point in time or over time. Revenue from a performance obligation transferred at a point in time is recognized at the time that the customer obtains control over the promised good or service. Revenue from our performance obligations satisfied over time are recognized in a manner that depicts our performance in transferring control of the good or service, which is generally measured based on time elapsed, as our customers simultaneously receive and consume the benefit of our services as they are provided.

Payment for the majority of our services is considered to be variable consideration, as the amount of revenues we expect to receive is subject to factors outside of our control, including market conditions. Variable consideration is only included in revenue when amounts are not subject to significant reversal, which is generally when uncertainty around the amount of revenue to be received is resolved.

Wealth advisory fees

Generally, management recognizes wealth advisory fees over time as the Company renders services to its clients. The Company receives these fees either based on a percentage of the market value of the assets under management, or as a fixed fee based on the services the Company provides to the client. The Company’s delivery of these services represents its related performance obligations. The Company typically collects the wealth advisory fees at the beginning of each quarter from the client’s account. Management recognizes these fees ratably over the related billing period as the Company fulfills its performance obligation. In addition, management recognizes any commissions or referral fees paid related to this revenue ratably over the related billing period as the Company fulfills its performance obligation.

Investment brokerage fees

Investment brokerage fees arise from the selling, distribution, and trade execution services. The Company’s execution of these services fulfills its related performance obligations.

The Company also offers sales and distribution services, and earns commissions through the sale of annuity and mutual fund products. The Company acts as an agent in these transactions and recognizes revenue at a point in time when the customer executes a contract with a product carrier. The Company may also receive trailing commissions and 12b-1 fees related to mutual fund and annuity products. Management recognizes this revenue in the period when it is earned, estimating the revenue if necessary based on the balance of the investment and the commission rate on the product.

The Company earns and recognizes trade execution commissions on the trade date, which is when the Company fulfills its performance obligation. Payment for the trade execution is due on the settlement date.

Lending fees

Lending fees represent charges earned for services we provide as part of the lending process, such as late charges, servicing fees, and documentation fees. The Company recognizes late charges as earned when they are paid. The Company recognizes revenue on other lending fees in the period in which the Company has performed the service.

Gains on sales of loans receivable

From time to time, the Company sells participation interests in loans receivable that it services. Upon completion of the loan sale, the Company recognizes a gain based on certain factors including the maturity date of the loan, the percentage of the loan sold and retained, and the servicing rate charged to the participant on the sold portion.

Gains on debt extinguishment

Gains on debt extinguishment arise from agreements reached with the Company’s lenders to reduce the principal amount on outstanding debt. The amount of the gain is determined by the difference between the cash paid and the amount of principal and interest that is relieved as stipulated by the agreement.

Gains/losses on sales of foreclosed assets

The Company records a gain or loss from the sale of foreclosed assets when control of the property transfers to the buyer, which generally occurs at the time of an executed deed. When the Company

finances the sale of a foreclosed asset to the buyer, the Company assesses whether the buyer is committed to perform their obligation under the contract and whether collectability of the transaction price is probable, among other factors. Once these criteria are met, the foreclosed asset is derecognized and the gain or loss on sale is recorded upon the transfer of control of the property to the buyer. In determining the gain or loss on the sale, the Company adjusts the transaction price and related gain (loss) on sale if a significant financing component is present.

Other non-interest income

Other non-interest income includes fees earned based on service contracts the Company has entered into with credit unions. The Company recognizes the revenue monthly based on the terms of the contracts, which require monthly payments for services the Company performs. Other non-interest income also includes realized income and gains on other investments.

Foreclosed Assets

Foreclosed Assets

Management records assets acquired through foreclosure or other proceedings at fair market value less estimated costs of disposal. Management determines the fair value at the date of foreclosure, which establishes a new cost for the asset. After foreclosure, the Company carries the asset at the lower of cost or fair value, less estimated costs of disposal. Management evaluates these real estate assets regularly to ensure that the recorded amount is supported by the current fair value and, if necessary, ensuring that valuation allowances reduce the carrying amount to fair value less estimated costs of disposal. Revenue and expense from the operation of the Company’s foreclosed assets and changes in the valuation allowance are included in net expenses from foreclosed assets. When the Company sells the foreclosed property, it recognizes a gain or loss on the sale equal to the difference between the net sales proceeds received and the carrying amount of the property.

Transfers of Financial Assets

Transfers of Financial Assets

Management accounts for transfers of financial assets as sales when the Company has surrendered control over the asset. Management deems the Company has surrendered control over transferred assets when:

● the assets have been isolated from the Company;

● the transferee obtains the right (free of conditions that constrain it from taking advantage of that right) to pledge or exchange the transferred asset; and

● the Company does not maintain effective control over the transferred asset through an agreement to repurchase it before its maturity.

The Company, from time to time, sells participation interests in mortgage loans it has originated or acquired. In order to recognize the transfer of a portion of a financial asset as a sale, the transferred portion, and any portion that continues to be held by the transferor must represent a participating interest, and the transfer of the participating interest must meet the conditions for surrender of control. To qualify as a participating interest:

● each portion of a financial asset must represent a proportionate ownership interest in an entire financial asset;

● from the date of transfer, all cash flows received from the entire financial asset must be divided proportionately among the participating interest holders in an amount equal to their respective share of ownership;

● the transfer must be made on a non-recourse basis (other than standard representations and warranties made under the loan participation sale agreement);

● the transfer may not be subordinate to any other participating interest holder; and

● no party has the right to pledge or exchange the entire financial asset.

If the transaction does not meet either the participating interest or surrender of control criteria, management accounts for it as a secured borrowing arrangement.

Under some circumstances, when the Company sells a participation in a wholly-owned loan receivable that it services, it retains loan-servicing rights, and records a servicing asset that is initially measured at fair value. As quoted market prices are generally not available for these assets, the Company estimates fair value based on the present value of future expected cash flows associated with the loan receivable. The Company amortizes servicing assets over the life of the associated receivable using the interest method. Any gain or loss recognized on the sale of a loan receivable depends in part on both the previous carrying amount of the financial asset involved in the sale, allocated between the asset sold and the interest that continues to be held by the Company based on its relative fair value at the date of transfer, and the proceeds received.

Property and Equipment

Property and Equipment

The Company states its furniture, fixtures, equipment, and leasehold improvements at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Management computes depreciation on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets. The useful lives of the Company’s assets range from three to seven years.

Debt Issuance Costs

Debt Issuance Costs

The Company’s debt consists of borrowings from financial institutions and obligations to investors incurred through the sale of investor notes. Management presents debt net of debt issuance costs, and amortizes debt issuance costs into interest expense over the contractual terms of the debt using the straight-line method.

Employee Benefit Plan

Employee Benefit Plans

The Company records contributions to the qualified employee retirement plan as compensation cost in the period incurred. The Company has also entered into a Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (the “SERP”) with its President and Chief Executive Officer, Joseph W. Turner, Jr. The Company records expenses related to the SERP based on the likelihood of the benefits vesting.

Leases

Leases

We recognize right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet for leases with lease terms longer than 12 months. The recognition, measurement and presentation of lease expenses and cash flows depend on the classification by the lessee as a finance or operating lease.

The Company has operating leases for real estate. Its leases have remaining lease terms of 3 months to 2 years. Its lease agreements may include renewal or termination options for varying periods that are generally at our discretion. In lease term, the Company only includes those periods related to renewal options we are reasonably certain to exercise. However, the Company generally does not include these renewal options as it is not reasonably certain to renew at the lease commencement date. This determination is based on management’s consideration of certain economic, strategic, and other factors that are evaluated at lease commencement date and reevaluate throughout the lease term. Some leases also include options to terminate the leases and the Company only includes those periods beyond the termination date if management is reasonably certain not to exercise the termination option.

Some leasing arrangements require variable payments that are dependent on usage or may vary for other reasons, such as payments for insurance and tax payments. The variable part of lease payments is not included in our ROU assets or lease liabilities. Rather, variable payments, other than those dependent upon an index or rate, are expensed when the obligation for those payments is incurred and are included in lease expenses recorded in selling and administrative expenses on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

If any of the lease agreements have both lease and non-lease components, the Company treats those as a single lease component for all underlying asset classes. Accordingly, all expenses associated with a lease contract are accounted for as lease expenses.

Leases with a term of 12 months or less are not recognized on the balance sheet, but rather expensed on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Income Taxes

Income Taxes

The Company has elected to be treated as a partnership for income tax purposes. Therefore, the Company passes through its income and expenses to its members for tax reporting purposes.

Tesoro Hills, LLC, is a joint venture in which the Company has an investment. Tesoro Hills, according to its operating agreement, has elected to be treated as a partnership for income tax purposes.

The Company and MP Securities are subject to a California LLC fee.

The Company uses a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the consolidated financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken in a tax return. The Company recognizes benefits from tax positions in the consolidated financial statements only when it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained upon examination by the appropriate taxing authority that would have full knowledge of all relevant information. A tax position that meets the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold is measured at the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50 percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. Tax positions that previously failed to meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold are recognized in the first subsequent financial reporting period in which that threshold is met. Management derecognizes previously recognized tax positions that no longer meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold in the first subsequent financial reporting period in which that threshold is no longer met.

New Accounting Guidance

New accounting guidance

Accounting Standards Pending Adoption

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.” ASU 2016-13 introduces an approach based on expected losses to estimate credit losses on certain types of financial instruments. ASU 2016-13 also modifies the impairment model for available-for-sale debt securities and provides for a simplified accounting model for purchased financial assets with credit deterioration since their origination. The guidance requires companies to apply the requirements in the year of adoption through cumulative adjustment with some aspects of the update requiring a prospective transition approach.

In October 2019, the FASB adopted a two-bucket approach to stagger the effective date for the credit losses standard for the fiscal years beginning after December 31, 2022 for certain entities,

including certain Securities and Exchange Commission filers, public business entities, and private companies. As a smaller reporting company, the Company is eligible for delayed implementation of the standard. The Company’s preliminary evaluation indicates the provisions of ASU No. 2016-13 are expected to affect the level of the allowance for loan losses on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Management has gathered all necessary data and reviewed potential methods to calculate the expected credit losses. The Company will use a third-party software solution to assist with the adoption of the standard.

The ASU allows for several different methods of calculating the Allowance for Credit Losses (“ACL”) and based on its analysis of observable data, the Company determined the probability of default method to be the most appropriate for all its loans.

The Company expects to record a one-time cumulative effect adjustment to the allowance for credit losses in retained earnings on the consolidated balance sheet as of the beginning of 2023, as is required in the guidance. The Company believes there will be an adjustment to the allowance of up to $300 thousand. In addition, the Company expects the allowance for unfunded commitments to be immaterial.

The qualitative impact of the new accounting standard will still be directed by many of the same factors that impacted the previous methodology for calculating the allowance, including but not limited to, quality and experience of staff, changes in the value of collateral, concentrations of credit in loan types and changes to lending policies. In addition, the Company will also use reasonable and supportable forecasts.

The actual impact from adopting this guidance may be subject to change based upon refinement and finalization of the model and associated assumptions, the implementation and testing of certain internal controls ensuring model effectiveness and management’s judgment.

In March 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-02, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures. This ASU eliminates the accounting guidance for troubled debt restructurings (TDRs) by creditors in Subtopic 310-40, Receivables - Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors, while adding disclosures for certain loan restructurings by creditors when a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty. This guidance requires an entity to determine whether the modification results in a new loan or a continuation of an existing loan. Additionally, the ASU requires disclosure of current period gross write-offs by year of origination for financing receivables. This ASU is effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. The Company adopted this guidance on January 1, 2023 and it did not have a material impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements.
