As aWe are primarily an indirect auto finance provider, and we focus our marketing activities on automobile dealers. We primarily pursue franchised dealerships; however, we also conduct business with a limited number of independent dealerships. We generally finance new GM vehicles moderately priced new vehicles from other manufacturers, and later-model, low-mileage used vehicles.

We maintain non-exclusive relationships with the dealers, and actively monitor our dealer relationships with the objective of maximizing the volume of retail financing applications received from dealerships with whom we do business that meet our underwriting standards and profitability objectives. Due to the non-exclusive nature of our relationships with dealers, the dealers retain discretion to determine whether to obtain financing from us or from another source for a customer seeking to makepurchase a vehicle purchase.vehicle. We actively monitor and cultivate our dealer relationships to maximize the volume of applications they submit for retail financing that meet our underwriting standards and profitability objectives.

Our operating leases are closed-end leases; therefore, we assume the residual risk on the leased vehicle. The lessee may purchase the leased vehicle at the maturity of the lease by paying the purchase price stated in the lease agreement, which equals the contract residual value determined at origination of the lease, plus any fees and all other amounts owed under the lease. If the lessee decides not to purchase the leased vehicle, the lessee must return it to a dealer by the lease's scheduled maturity date. ExtensionsGenerally, monthly extensions may be granted to the lessee for up to a total of six months.months, and longer in certain circumstances. If the lessee extends the maturity date on their lease agreement, the lessee is responsible for additional monthly payments until the leased vehicle is returned or purchased.

We seek to maximize net sales proceeds on returned leased vehicles. Net sales proceeds equal gross proceeds less fees and costs for reconditioning and transporting the leased vehicles. We sell returned leased vehicles through either our exclusive online channel or our wholesale auction partners.

GM offers subvention programs, under which GM provides us cash payments in order for us to be able to provide for lower customer payments on loan and lease agreements originated through GM's dealership network, making credit more affordable to customers financing or leasing vehicles manufactured by GM. GM also supports our loan origination volume by offering other incentives to borrowers who finance their vehicles with us.

Our business strategy is to help GM sell vehicles while earning an appropriate risk-adjusted return. This strategy includes increasing new GM automobile sales by offering a full spectrum of competitive financing programs. Total retail loan and lease origination levels were as follows (in millions):

In addition to our proprietary credit scoring systems, we utilize other underwriting guidelines. These underwriting guidelines are comprised of numerous evaluation criteria, including, but not limited to: (i) identification and assessment of the applicant's willingness and capacity to repay the loan or lease, including consideration of credit history and performance on past and existing obligations; (ii) credit bureau data; (iii) collateral identification and valuation; (iv) payment structure and debt ratios; (v) insurance information; (vi) employment, income and residency verifications, as considered appropriate; and (vii) in certain cases, the creditworthiness of a co-obligor. These underwriting guidelines and the minimum credit risk profiles of applicants we will approve, as rank-ordered by our credit scorecards, are subject to change from time to time based on economic, competitive and capital market conditions as well as our overall origination strategies.

We support the financing of new and used vehicle inventory primarily for our GM-franchised dealerships and their affiliates before sale or lease to the retail customer. Financing is provided through lines of credit extended to individual dealerships. In general, each floorplan line is secured by all financed vehicles and by other dealership assets and, when available, the continuing personal guarantee of the dealership's owners. Under certain circumstances, such as repossession of dealership inventory, GM and other manufacturers may be obligated by applicable law, or under agreements with us, to reassign or to repurchase new vehicle inventory within certain mileage and model year parameters, further minimizing our risk. The amount we advance to a dealership for new vehicles purchased through the manufacturer is equal to 100% of the wholesale invoice price of new vehicles, which includes destination and other miscellaneous charges, and a price rebate from the manufacturer to the dealer in varying amounts stated as a percentage of the invoice price. We advance the loan proceeds directly to the manufacturer. To support a dealership's used vehicle inventory needs, we advance funds to the dealership or auction to purchase used vehicles for inventory based on the appropriate wholesale book value for the region in which the dealer is located.

Floorplan lending is typically structured to yield interest at a floating rate indexed to an appropriate benchmark rate. The rate for a particular dealership is based on, among other things, the dealership's creditworthiness, the amount of the credit line, the dealer's risk rating and whether or not the dealership is in default. Interest on floorplan loans is generally payable monthly. GM offers floorplan interest subvention in specific International Segment markets, under which GM makes payments to us to cover certain periods of interest on certain floorplan loans. Upon the sale or lease of a financed vehicle, the dealer must repay the advance on the vehicle according to the repayment terms. These repayment terms may vary based on the dealer's risk rating. As a result, funds advanced may be repaid in a short time period, depending on the length of time the dealer holds the vehicle until its sale.

We periodically inspect and verify the location of the financed vehicles that are available for sale. The timing of the verifications varies and no advance notice is given to the dealer. Among other things, verifications are intended to determine dealer compliance with its credit agreement as to repayment terms and to determine the status of our collateral.

As part of our floorplan lending agreement, we offer a cash management program. Under the program, subject to certain conditions, a dealer may choose to reduce the amount of interest on its floorplan line by making principal payments to us in advance. This program allows for the dealer to manage its liquidity position and reduce its interest cost while maintaining the repayment terms on the advances made associated with new vehicles.

We also make loans to finance parts and accessories as well as improvements to dealership facilities, to provide working capital and to purchase and finance dealership real estate. These loans are typically secured by mortgages or deeds of trust on dealership land and buildings, security interests in other dealership assets and often the continuing personal guarantees from the owners of the dealerships and/or the real estate, as applicable. Dealer loans are structured to yield interest at fixed or floating rates, which are indexed to an appropriate benchmark rate. Interest on dealer loans is generally payable monthly.

In our securitizations, we transfer loans or lease-related assets to securitization trusts (Trusts), which issue one or more classes of asset-backed securities. The asset-backed securities are in turn sold to investors. While these Trusts are included in our consolidated financial statements, they are separate legal entities, and the assets held by these Trusts are legally owned by them and are not available to our creditors or creditors of our other Trusts. When we transfer securitized assets to a Trust, we make certain representations and warranties regarding the securitized assets. These representations and warranties pertain to specific aspects of the securitized assets, including the origination of the securitized assets, the obligors of the securitized assets, the accuracy and legality of the records, schedules containing information regarding the securitized assets, the financed vehicles securing the securitized assets, the security interests in the securitized assets, specific characteristics of the securitized assets, and certain matters regarding our servicing of the securitized assets, but do not pertain to the underlying performance of the securitized assets. Upon the breach of one of these representations or warranties (subject to any applicable cure period) that materially and adversely affects the noteholders' interest in any securitized assets, we are obligated to repurchase the securitized assets from the Trust. Historically, repurchases due to a breach of a representation or warranty have been insignificant.

We utilize senior-subordinated securitization structures that involve the public and private sale of subordinated asset-backed securities to provide credit enhancement for the senior, or highest-rated, asset-backed securities. The level of credit enhancement in future senior-subordinated securitizations will depend,depends, in part, on the net interest margin, collateral characteristics and credit performance trends of the assets transferred, as well as our credit trends and overall auto finance industry credit trends. Credit enhancement levels may also be impacted by our financial condition, the economic environment and our ability to sell lower-rated subordinated bonds at rates we consider acceptable.

The credit enhancement requirements in our securitization transactions may include restricted cash accounts that are generally established with an initial deposit and may subsequently be funded through excess cash flows from the securitized assets. An additional form of credit enhancement is provided in the form of overcollateralization, whereby the value of the securitized assets transferred to the Trusts is greater than the amount due on asset-backed securities issued by the Trusts.

The primary federal agency responsible for ensuring compliance with these consumer protection laws is the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB). The CFPB has broad rule-making, examination and enforcement authority over non-bank automobile finance companies like us. We are subject to supervision and examination by the CFPB as a “larger participant” in the automobile finance market.

In most states and other jurisdictions in which we operate, consumer credit regulatory agencies regulate and enforce laws relating to sales finance companies and consumer lenders or lessors like us. These laws and regulations generally provide for licensing as a sales finance company or consumer lender or lessor, limitations on the amount, duration and charges, including interest rates, requirements as to the form and content of finance contracts and other documentation, and restrictions on collection practices and creditors' rights. In certain jurisdictions, we are subject to periodic examination by regulatory authorities.

In Canada, we are subject to both federal and provincial laws and regulations, including the Interest Act, the Consumer Protection Acts and Cost of Credit Disclosure regulations. Additionally, we are subject to certain provincial Consumer Reporting Acts and the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act, as well as provincial counterparts, which regulates how we can collect, use, and/or disclose consumers' personal information.

A material portion of our retail finance business, and substantially all our commercial lending activities, consist of financing associated with the sale and lease of new GM vehicles and our relationshiprelationships with GM-franchised dealerships. If there were significant changes in GM's liquidity and capital position and access to the capital markets, the production or sales of GM vehicles to retail customers, the quality or resale value of GM vehicles, GM's operations that may require restructuring or rationalization actions,inflationary pressures or other factors impacting GM or its products, such changes could significantly affect our profitability, financial condition, and access to the capital markets. In addition, GM sponsors special-rate financing and other incentive programs available through us. Under these programs, GM makes interest supplements or other support payments to us and may offer various incentives to borrowerscustomers who finance their vehicles with us. These programs increase our financing volume and our share of financed GM vehicle sales. If GM were to adopt marketing strategies in the future that de-emphasized such programs in favor of other incentives, our financing volume could be reduced.

ThereAlso, government safety standards require manufacturers to remedy certain product safety defects through recall campaigns and vehicle repurchases. From time to time, GM may recall, suspend the production or sale of certain GM products to address performance, customer satisfaction, compliance or safety-related issues. Because our business is no assurance that the global automotive market or GM's share of that market will not suffer downturns in the future, and any negative impact could in turn have a material adverse effect on our financial position, liquidity and results of operations.

The automotive finance industry is highly competitive, and we compete with a large number of banks, credit unions, independent finance companies and other captive automotive finance subsidiaries. Our ability to maintain and expand our market share is contingent upon us offering competitive pricing, developing and maintaining strong relationships with dealers and customers, making substantial investments in our technological infrastructure, and effectively responding to changes in the automotive and automotive finance industries. In addition, any expansion into new markets may require us to compete with more experienced and established market participants. Failure to effectively manage these challenges could adversely affect our market share, and pressure to provide competitive pricing could have a negative effect on our operating results.

Our financial condition, liquidity and results of operations depend, to a material extent, on the performance of loans and leases in our portfolio. Obligors under contracts acquired or originated by us, as well as dealer obligors in our commercial lending portfolio, may default during the term of their loan or lease. Generally, we bear the full risk of losses resulting from defaults. In the event of a default, the value of the financed vehicle or, in the case of a commercial obligor, the value of the inventory and other commercial assets we finance usually does not cover the outstanding amount due to us, including the costs of recovery and asset disposition.

The amounts owed to us by any given dealership or dealership group in our commercial lending portfolio can be significant. The amount of potential loss resulting from the default of a dealer in our commercial lending portfolio can, therefore, be material even after liquidating the dealer's inventory and other assets to offset the defaulted obligations. Additionally, because the receivables in our commercial lending portfolio may include complex arrangements including guarantees, inter-creditor agreements, mortgages and other liens, our ability to recover and dispose of the underlying inventory and other collateral may be time-consuming and expensive, thereby increasing our potential loss.

An increase in defaults would reduce the cash flows generated by us, and distributions of cash to us from our secured debt facilities would be delayed and the ultimate amount of cash distributableavailable for distributions to us from such facilities would be less, which would have an adverse effect on our liquidity.

Customer prepayments and dealer repayments on commercial obligations, which are generally revolving in nature, affect the amount of finance charge income we receive over the life of the loans. If prepayment levels increase for any reason and we are not able to replace the prepaid receivables with newly originated loans, we will receive less finance charge income and our results of operations may be adversely affected.

A portion of our origination and servicing activities in the North America Segment has historically involved sub-prime automobile receivables. Sub-prime borrowers are associated with higher-than-averagehigher delinquency and default rates.rates than prime borrowers. The actual rates of delinquencies, defaults, repossessions and losses with respect to those borrowers could also be more dramatically affected by a general economic downturn. No assurance can be given that our proprietary credit scoring system, risk-based pricing and other underwriting policies, and our servicing and collection methods will be effective in managing these risks. In the event that we underestimate the default risk or underprice contracts that we purchase, our financial position, liquidity and results of operations would be adversely affected.

Given the reliance of our operations on GM-franchised dealers, we have significant exposure to their financial condition. Dealers operate in a highly competitive industry,market, and competitive pressures could have a significant negative effect on our pricing, market share and operating results.

We depend on various financing sources, including credit facilities, securitization programs and unsecured debt issuances, to finance our loan and lease originations and commercial lending business. Additionally, our ability to refinance or make payments on our indebtedness depends on our access to financing sources in the future and our ability to generate cash. Our access to financing sources depends upon our financial position, general market conditions, availability of bank liquidity, the bank regulatory environment, our compliance with covenants imposed under our financing agreements, the credit quality of the collateral we can pledge to support secured financings, and other factors. Changes in GM's and our credit ratings may also impact our access to and cost of financing. There can be no assurance that funding will be available to us through these financing sources or, if available, that the funding will be on acceptable terms. If these financing sources are not available to us on a regular basis for any reason, or we are not otherwise able to generate significant amounts of cash, then we would not have sufficient funds and would be required to revise the scale of the business, including the possible reduction or discontinuation of origination activities, which would have a material adverse effect on our financial position, liquidity and results of operations.

We currently have a substantial amount of outstanding indebtedness. In addition, we have guaranteed a substantial amount of indebtedness incurred by several of our International Segment and our principal Canadian operating subsidiary.subsidiaries. We have also entered into intercompany loan agreements with several of our International Segment subsidiaries, providing these companies with access to our liquidity to support originations and other activities. Our ability to make payments of principal or interest on, or to refinance, our indebtedness will depend on our future operating performance, and our ability to enter into additional credit facilities and securitization transactions as well as other debt financings, which, to a certain extent, are subject to economic, financial, competitive, regulatory, capital markets and other factors beyond our control.

If we are unable to generate sufficient cash flows in the future to service our debt, we may be required to refinance all or a portion of our existing debt or to obtain additional financing. There can be no assurance that any refinancing will be possible or that any additional financing could be obtained on acceptable terms. The inability to service or refinance our existing debt or to obtain additional financing would have a material adverse effect on our financial position, liquidity and results of operations.

The degree to which we are leveraged creates risks, including:

Our credit facilities may require us to comply with certain financial ratios and covenants, including minimum asset quality maintenance requirements. These restrictions may interfere with our ability to obtain financing or to engage in other necessary or desirable business activities.

Unfavorable changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates may adversely affect our financial condition, liquidity and results of operations. We utilize various hedging strategies to mitigate our exposure to rate fluctuations, including entering into derivative instruments with various major financial institutions that we believe are creditworthy. However, changes in interest rates and currency exchange rates cannot always be predicted or hedged, and there can be no assurance that our hedging strategies will be effective in minimizing interest rate and foreign currency risks. Our results of operations may be adversely impacted by volatility in the valuation of derivative instruments. Additionally, we may be unable to find creditworthy counterparties willing to enter derivative instruments on acceptable terms, and counterparties may be unable to meet their financial obligations under our derivative instruments.

We have certain floating-rate obligations, hedging transactions, and floating-rate dealercommercial loans that determine their applicable interest rate or payment amount by reference to LIBOR.

Our operations outside the U.S. are subject to many of the same risks as our U.S. operations. In addition to those risks, our non-U.S. operations, including the operations of our joint ventures, are subject to certain additional risks, such as the following:

The effects of these risks may, individually or in the aggregate, adversely affect our business.

We do not control the operations of our joint ventures, and we do not have a majority interest in the joint ventures. In the joint ventures, we share ownership and management with other parties who may not have the same goals, strategies, priorities, or resources as we do and may compete with us outside the joint ventures. Joint ventures are intended to be operated for the benefit of all co-owners, rather than for our exclusive benefit. Operating a business as a joint venture often requires additional organizational formalities, as well as time-consuming procedures for sharing information and making decisions that must further take into consideration our co-owners' interest. In joint ventures, we are required to foster our relationship with our co-owners as well as promote the overall success of the joint ventures, and if a co-owner changes or relationships deteriorate, our success in the joint ventures may be materially adversely affected. The benefits from a successful joint venture are shared among the co-owners, and as such, we do not receive the full benefits from a successful joint venture. As a result of having limited control over the actions of the joint ventures, we may be unable to prevent misconduct or other violations of applicable laws. Moreover, the joint ventures may not follow the same requirements regarding internal controls and internal control over financial reporting that we follow. To the extent another party makes decisions that negatively impact the joint ventures or internal control issues arise within the joint ventures, we may have to take responsive or other actions, or we may be subject to penalties, fines or other related actions for these activities that could have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Under these laws and regulations, the failure to maintain compliant data privacy and security practices could result in consumer complaints and regulatory inquiry, resulting in civil or criminal penalties, as well as brand impact or other harm to our business. In addition, increased consumer sensitivity to real or perceived failures in maintaining acceptable data practices could damage our reputation and deter current and potential users or customers from using our products and services. Because many of these laws are new, there is little clarity as to their interpretation, as well as a lack of precedent for the scope of enforcement. The cost of compliance with these laws and regulations will be high and is likely to increase in the future. For example, the California Consumer Protection Act became effective in 2020, obligatingThe growing patchwork of state and country regulations imposes burdensome obligations on companies to quickly respond to consumer requests, such as requests to delete, disclose and stop selling or sharing personal information, of California residents, with significant fines for noncompliance. Other U.S. states are considering similar laws,Complying with some considering private rights of action for consumers that would allow consumers to bring claims directly against us for mishandling their data. In Canada, both the federal government and certain provinces have also proposed new legislation imposing significant and unprecedented obligations, fines and liabilities regarding data handling. Overcoming these new barriers is likelylaws has significantly increased, and may continue to increase, our operating costs and drive newis driving increased complexity in our operations. In addition to direct liability that we may face in connection with these fast-evolving laws and regulations, both regulators and litigants are increasingly seeking to hold companies liable for their third-party service providers' and vendors' privacy and cybersecurity compliance, particularly in the context of cybersecurity attacks and data

We are subject to a wide variety of laws and regulations in the jurisdictions where we operate, including supervision and licensing by numerous governmental entities. These laws and regulations, or changes thereof, can create significant constraints on our operations and result in significant costs related to compliance. For example, laws or regulations intended to address the potential impacts of climate change could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. Failure to comply with these laws and regulations could impair our ability to continue operating and result in substantial civil and criminal penalties, monetary damages, attorneys’ fees and costs, possible revocation of licenses, and damage to reputation, brand and valued customer relationships.

In the United States, the Dodd-Frank Act imposes significant regulatory oversight on the financial industry and grants the CFPB extensive rulemaking and enforcement authority, all of which may substantially impact our operations. As a “larger participant” in the automobile finance market, we are subject to comprehensive and rigorous on-site examinations by the CFPB. Any violations of law or unfair lending practices found during these examinations could result in enforcement actions, fines, and mandated process, procedure or product-related changes or consumer refunds.

We are subject to the tax laws and regulations of the U.S. and numerous other jurisdictions in which we do business, and we are included in GM's consolidated U.S. federal income tax returns.business. Many judgments are required in determining our worldwide provision for income taxes and other tax liabilities, and we are regularly under audit by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service and other tax authorities, which may not agree with our tax positions. In addition, our tax liabilities are subject to other significant risks and uncertainties, including those arising from potential changes in laws and regulations in the countries in which we do business, the possibility of adverse determinations with respect to the application of existing laws (in particular with respect to full realization of the incentives contemplated by the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022), changes in our business or structure and changes in the valuation of our deferred tax assets and liabilities. Any unfavorable resolution of these and other uncertainties may have a significant adverse impact on our tax rate and results of operations. If our tax expense were to increase, or if the ultimate determination of our taxes owed is for an amount in excess of amounts previously accrued, our operating results, cash flows and financial condition could be adversely affected.

None.

Our executive offices are located in Fort Worth, Texas. We operate credit centers, collections and customer service centers and administrative offices, primarily in North America and Latin America.

All of our common stock is owned by General Motors Holdings LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of GM; therefore, there is no public trading market for our common stock. Future dividendsDividends are payable at the sole discretion of our Board of Directors and will depend on a number ofseveral factors, including, but not limited to, business and economic conditions, our financial condition, earnings, liquidity requirements and leverage ratio.

Our commercial finance receivables portfolio consists of floorplan financing as well as dealer loans, which are loans to finance improvements to dealership facilities, to provide working capital, andor to purchase and/or finance dealership real estate. The allowance for loan losses on commercial finance receivables is based on historical loss experience for the consolidated portfolio, in addition to forecasted auto industry vehicle sales. Prior to January 1, 2020, we estimated our allowance for loan losses on commercial finance receivables in the North America Segment based on an analysis of the experience of comparable commercial lenders.conditions. There can be no assurance that the ultimate charge-off amount will not exceed such estimates or that our credit loss assumptions will not increase.

During the term of a lease, we periodically evaluate the estimated residual values is dependent on our future abilityvalue and may adjust the value downward, which increases the prospective depreciation, or upward (limited to market the vehicles under prevailing market conditions.contractual residual value), which decreases the prospective depreciation.

The customer is obligated to make payments during the lease term for the difference between the purchase price and the contract residual value plus a money factor. However, since the customer is not obligated to purchase the vehicle at the end of the contract, we are exposed to a risk of loss to the extent the customer returns the vehicle prior to or at the end of the lease term and the valueproceeds we receive on the disposition of the vehicle isare lower than the residual value estimated at lease inception. Realization of the residual values is dependent on our future ability to market the vehicles under prevailing market conditions.

At December 31, 2020,2022, the estimated residual value of our leased vehicles was $29.2$24.7 billion. Depreciation reduces the carrying value of each leased asset in our leased vehicles portfolio over time from its original acquisition value to its expected residual value at the end of the lease term. We updated the residual value estimates on our leased vehicles portfolio in March 2020, following the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic to reflect the decrease in forecasted used vehicle prices and have continued to monitor and update our residual value estimates through December 31, 2020. Used vehicle prices rebounded, after decreasing in March and April 2020, and sales proceeds on terminated leased vehicles outperformed our residual value estimates during 2020. Accordingly, we increased our residual value estimates at December 31, 2020, which will result in a prospective decrease in the depreciation rate over the remaining term of the leased vehicles portfolio. If used vehicle prices weaken compared to our estimates, we would increase depreciation expense and/or record an impairment charge on our lease portfolio. If an impairment exists, we would determine any shortfall in recoverability of our leased vehicle asset groups by year, make and model. Recoverability is calculated as the excess of (1) the sum of remaining lease payments, plus estimated residual value, over (2) leased vehicles, net, less deferred income. Alternatively, if used vehicle prices outperform our latest estimates, we may record gains on sales of off-lease vehicles and/or decreased depreciation expense.

We reviewed our leased vehicles portfolio for indicators of impairment and determined that no impairment indicators were present at December 31, 20202022 and 2019.

The following table illustrates the effect of a 1% relative change in the estimated residual values at December 31, 2020,2022, which could increase or decrease depreciation expense over the remaining term of our leased vehicles portfolio, holding all other assumptions constant. Changes to residual values are rarely simultaneous across all maturities and segments, and also may impact return rates. If a decrease in residual values is concentrated among specific asset groups, the decrease could result in an immediate impairment charge.

We account for income taxes on a separate return basis using an asset and liability method, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences attributable to differences between financial statements' carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis, net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards.

In the ordinary course of business, there may be transactions, calculations, structures and filing positions where the ultimate tax outcome is uncertain. At any point in time, multiple tax years are subject to audit by various taxing jurisdictions and we record liabilities for estimated tax results based on the requirements of the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes. Management believes that the estimates it records are reasonable. However, due to expiring statutes of limitations, audits, settlements, changes in tax law or new authoritative rulings, no assurance can be given that the final outcome of these matters will be comparable to what was reflected in the historical income tax provisions and accruals. We may need to adjust our accrued tax assets or liabilities if actual results differ from estimated results or if we adjust the assumptions used in the computation of the estimated tax results in the future. These adjustments could materially impact the effective tax rate, earnings, accrued tax balances and cash.

The ability to realize deferred tax assets depends on the ability to generate sufficient taxable income within the carryback or carryforward periods provided for in the tax law for each applicable tax jurisdiction. The assessment regarding whether a valuation allowance is required or should be adjusted is based on an evaluation of possible sources of taxable income and also considers all available positive and negative evidence factors. Our accounting for deferred tax consequences represents our best estimate of future events. Changes in our current estimates, due to unanticipated market conditions or events, could have a material effect on our ability to utilize deferred tax assets.

We use return on average tangible common equity (a non-GAAP measure) to measure our contribution to GM's enterprise profitability and cash flow.flows. Our return on average tangible common equity increaseddecreased to 20.5%25.1% in 20202022 from 15.4%32.6% in 20192021 primarily due to increased earnings as well as a decrease in average tangible common equity.decreased earnings.

The following table presents our reconciliation of return on average tangible common equity to return on average common equity, the most directly comparable GAAP measure:

Average retail finance receivables increased primarily due to new loan originations in excess of principal collections and payoffs. Our penetration of GM's retail sales in the U.S. increased to 44.8%was 43.2% in 2020 from 43.1%2022 and 43.9% in 2019.2021. Penetration levels vary depending on incentive financing programs available and competing third-party financing products in the market.

Average commercial finance receivables increased primarily due to growth in the average amount financed per dealer, resulting from increased new vehicle inventory, as well as higher floorplan penetration.

Unrealized gains and losses on cash flow hedges of our floating rate debt are reclassified into earnings in the same period during which the hedged transactions affect earnings via principal remeasurement or accrual of interest expense.

The return rate can fluctuate based uponis largely dependent on the level of used vehicle pricingvalues at lease termination compared to contractual residual values at lease inception and/or growth and age of the leased vehicles portfolio. The return rate for 2020 declined compared to 2019 due to increased leased vehicle purchases at the end-of-term driven by historically high used vehicle prices.inception. Used vehicle prices increased approximately 3%were generally higher than contractual residual values in 2020 compared to 2019,2022, primarily due to low new vehicle inventory, largely driven by the suspensionand resulted in unusually low return rates. The high levels of manufacturing operations as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, creating strong demand for used vehicles, whichvehicle prices also resulted in gains on terminations of leased vehicles of $1.3$1.2 billion and $2.0 billion for 2022 and 2021. The decrease in 2020gains is primarily due to higher residual value estimates resulting in decreased depreciation expense, as well as fewer vehicles returned in 2022 compared to gains of $652 million in 2019. Further, vehicles sold during 2020 were carried at lower net book values, resulting from increased depreciation rates recorded in anticipation of reduced residual values throughout 2020.

The following table summarizes the residual value based on our most recent estimates and the number of units included in leased vehicles, net by vehicle type (units in thousands):

At December 31, 20202022 and 2019,2021, 99.4% and 99.1%99.5% of our operating leases were current with respect to payment status.

The following table summarizes our available liquidity:

We generally target liquidity levels to support at least six months of our expected net cash outflows, including new originations, without access to new debt financing transactions or other capital markets activity. At December 31, 2020,2022, available liquidity exceeded our liquidity targets.

OurUnder our support agreement with GM (the Support Agreement), GM provides that GM will use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that we will continue to be designated asus with financial resources through a subsidiary borrower under GM's$1.0 billion junior subordinated unsecured intercompany revolving credit facilities. We have access, subject to available capacity, to $14.5 billion of GM's unsecured revolving credit facilities consisting of a three-year, $4.0 billion facility (the Junior Subordinated Revolving Credit Facility) and a five-year, $10.5 billion facility. We also have exclusive access to GM's 364-day $2.0 billion 364-day revolving credit facility (the GM(GM Revolving 364-Day364-day Credit Facility). At December 31, 2020, we had no borrowings outstanding under any of these facilities.

During 2020,2022, net cash used in investing activities increased primarily due to an increase in purchasesnet funding of retailcommercial finance receivables of $4.9$6.6 billion, an increase in the purchases of consumer finance receivables of $1.8 billion and decreaseda decrease in proceeds from termination of leased vehicles of $159 million, partially offset by a decrease in purchases of leased vehicles of $2.7 billion and an increase in collections and recoveries on retail finance receivables of $3.0 billion due to lower loan prepayment activity, partially offset by an increase in net collections of commercial finance receivables of $2.2 billion and a decrease in purchases of leased vehicles of $1.2$1.6 billion.
