FEDERAL AGRICULTURAL MORTGAGE CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The interim unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Federal Agricultural Mortgage Corporation

("Farmer Mac") and subsidiaries have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S.

Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). These interim unaudited consolidated financial statements

reflect all normal and recurring adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary to present a

fair statement of the financial position and the results of operations and cash flows of Farmer Mac and

subsidiaries for the interim periods presented. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally

included in the annual consolidated financial statements have been omitted as permitted by SEC rules and

regulations. The December 31, ~~2021~~2022 consolidated balance sheet presented in this report has been derived

from Farmer Mac's audited ~~2021~~2022 consolidated financial statements, as revised. Management believes that

the disclosures are adequate to present fairly the consolidated financial statements as of the dates and for

the periods presented. These interim unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in

conjunction with the ~~2021~~2022 consolidated financial statements of Farmer Mac and subsidiaries included in

Farmer Mac's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2021,~~2022, as filed with the SEC

on February ~~28, 2022.~~24, 2023. Results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of those that may be

expected for the fiscal year. Presented below are Farmer Mac's significant accounting policies that contain

updated information for the three and nine months ended September 30, ~~2022.~~

Farmer Mac has revised its prior period financial information to correct an error that was not material to those previous consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole. For more information on the revision, refer to Note 11, Revision of Prior Period Financial Statements.2023.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Farmer Mac and its two subsidiaries: (1) Farmer Mac Mortgage Securities Corporation, whose principal activities are to facilitate the purchase and issuance of Farmer Mac Guaranteed Securities; and (2) Farmer Mac II LLC, whose principal activity is the operation of substantially all of the business related to the USDA Securities included in the Agricultural Finance line of business. The consolidated financial statements also include the accounts of Variable Interest Entities ("VIEs") in which Farmer Mac determined itself to be the primary beneficiary.

(a)Earnings Per Common Share

Basic earnings per common share ("EPS") is based on the daily weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Diluted earnings per common share is based on the daily weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding adjusted to include all potentially dilutive stock appreciation rights ("SARs") and unvested restricted stock awards. The following schedule reconciles basic and diluted EPS for the three and nine months ended September 30, ~~2022~~2023 and ~~2021:~~2022:

Recently Adopted Accounting Guidance


Standard	Description	Date of Adoption	Effect on Consolidated Financial Statements
ASU 2020-04 and 2021-01, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting	The amendments in this Update provide optional guidance for a limited period of time to ease the potential burden in accounting for reference rate reform on financial reporting. They provide optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met.	January 1, 2020	During the second quarter 2023, Farmer Mac adopted optional expedients ~~specific~~including those relating to ~~discounting transition on a retrospective basis,~~qualifying hedging relationships and contract modification relief, and as ~~a result~~ of ~~this election, the discounting transition~~June 30, 2023, has no further variable-rate exposure to LIBOR. To date, these elections did not have a material effect on Farmer Mac's financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. Farmer Mac ~~is exploring~~does not expect to elect further expedients through the ~~adoption~~ending date of ~~additional optional expedients, including contract modification relief, and is not expected to have a material effect on Farmer Mac's financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.~~

~~Recently Issued Accounting Guidance~~December 31, 2024.


~~Standard~~ASU 2022-06, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Deferral of the Sunset Date of Topic 848	The amendments in this Update deferred the sunset date in Topic 848 from December 31, 2022 to December 31, 2024.	~~Description~~December 21, 2022	~~Effect on Consolidated Financial Statements~~Farmer Mac does not expect to elect further expedients through the ending date of December 31, 2024.
ASU 2022-02, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures	The Update addresses and amends areas identified by the Financial Accounting Standards Board ~~("FASB")~~ as part of its post-implementation review of the accounting standard that introduced the current expected credit losses (“CECL”) model. The amendments eliminate the accounting guidance for troubled debt restructurings by creditors that have adopted the CECL model and enhance the disclosure requirements for loan refinancings and restructurings made with borrowers experiencing financial difficulty. In addition, the amendments require disclosure of current-period gross ~~writeoffs~~write offs for financing receivables and net investment in leases by year of origination in the vintage disclosures. ASU 2022-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years for entities that have adopted the CECL accounting standard. Early adoption, however, is permitted if an entity has adopted the CECL accounting standard.	~~Farmer Mac is still assessing the impact of the new accounting standard but does not expect that~~January 1, 2023	The adoption of ~~the new guidance will~~this Update did not have a material effect on Farmer Mac's financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
ASU 2022-01, Fair Value Hedging - Portfolio Layer Method	The Update introduces the portfolio layer method, which expands the current single-layer method to allow multiple hedged layers of a single closed portfolio under the method (previously named, last-of-layer method). Additionally, it expands the scope of the portfolio layer method to include non-prepayable assets, specifies eligible hedging instruments in a single-layer hedge, provides additional guidance on the accounting for and disclosure of hedge basis adjustments under the portfolio layer method, specifies how hedge basis adjustments should be considered when determining credit losses for the assets included in the closed portfolio, and provides that an entity may reclassify HTM debt securities identified within 30 days of the date of adoption to AFS if the entity applies portfolio layer method hedging to those debt securities.	January 1, 2023	Farmer Mac adopted this guidance as of January 1, 2023. Farmer Mac does not currently hedge interest rate risk for single closed portfolios of financial assets, so adoption of this guidance had no effect on Farmer Mac's financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, or disclosures given current strategies.

The unrealized losses presented above are principally due to a general widening of market spreads and changes in the levels of interest rates from the dates of acquisition to September 30, ~~2022~~2023 and December 31, ~~2021,~~2022, as applicable. The resulting decrease in fair values reflects an increase in the perceived risk by the financial markets related to those securities. As of both September 30, ~~2022~~2023 and December 31, ~~2021,~~2022, all of the investment securities in an unrealized loss position either were backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government, a U.S. government sponsored enterprise, or had credit ratings of at least "AA+."

Securities in unrealized loss positions for 12 months or longer have a fair value as of September 30, ~~2022~~2023 that is, on average, approximately ~~94.0%~~92.7% of their amortized cost basis. Farmer Mac believes that all of these unrealized losses are recoverable within a reasonable period of time by way of maturity, or changes in credit ~~spreads.~~spread, and changes in levels of interest rates.

The amortized cost, fair value, and weighted-average yield of available-for-sale investment securities by remaining contractual maturity as of September 30, ~~2022~~2023 are set forth below. Asset-backed and mortgage-backed securities are included based on their final maturities, although the actual maturities may differ due to prepayments of the underlying assets.

On July 1, 2023, Farmer Mac transferred $2.7 billion of AgVantage Securities from available-for-sale to held-to-maturity to reflect Farmer Mac's positive intent and ability to hold these securities until maturity or payoff. Farmer Mac transferred these securities at fair value as of the date of the transfer, which included a cost basis adjustment of unrealized losses of $31.9 million. The accumulated unrealized losses were retained in accumulated other comprehensive income in the amount of $31.9 million. Farmer Mac accounts for held-to-maturity securities at amortized cost. Both the cost basis adjustment and accumulated unrealized depreciation will be amortized as an adjustment to the yield on the held-to-maturity AgVantage Securities over the remaining term of the transferred securities.

The unrealized losses presented above are principally due to changes in interest rates from the date of acquisition to September 30, ~~2022~~2023 and December 31, ~~2021,~~2022, as applicable. The unrealized losses on the held-to-maturity USDA Securities as of both September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 reflect their increased cost basis resulting from their transfer to held-to-maturity as of October 1, 2016.

The credit exposure related to Farmer Mac's USDA Securities in the Agricultural Finance line of business is covered by the full faith and credit guarantee of the United States of America.

The unrealized losses from AgVantage securities were on 9776 and 1395 available-for-sale securities as of September 30, ~~2022~~2023 and December 31, ~~2021,~~2022, respectively. There were 4459 and 1037 held-to-maturity AgVantage securities with an unrealized loss as of September 30, ~~2022~~2023 and December 31, ~~2021,~~2022, respectively.

As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there were 26 and 4 held-to-maturity AgVantage securities, ~~in a loss position for more than 12 months. As of December 31, 2021, there were no held-to-maturity AgVantage securities~~respectively, in a loss position for more than 12 months.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, ~~2022~~2023 and ~~2021,~~2022 Farmer Mac had no sales of AgVantage Farmer Mac Guaranteed Securities, USDA Farmer Mac Guaranteed Securities or USDA Trading Securities and, therefore, Farmer Mac realized no gains or losses.

4.FINANCIAL DERIVATIVES

Farmer Mac enters into financial derivative transactions to protect against risk from the effects of market price, or interest rate movements, on the value of certain assets, future cash flows, or debt issuance, and not for trading or speculative purposes. ~~For more information about Farmer Mac's~~Certain financial derivatives ~~see Note 6~~are designated as fair value hedges of

fixed rate assets, classified as available-for-sale, to protect against fair value changes in ~~Farmer Mac's Annual Report~~the assets related

to changes in a benchmark interest rate (e.g., SOFR). Certain other financial derivatives are

designated as cash flow hedges to mitigate the volatility of future interest rate payments on ~~Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, as filed with the SEC on February 28, 2022.~~floating rate

debt. Certain financial derivatives are not designated in hedge accounting relationships.

Farmer Mac manages the interest rate risk related to loans it has committed to acquire, but has not yet

permanently funded, primarily through the use of futures contracts involving U.S. Treasury securities. Farmer Mac aims to achieve a duration-matched hedge ratio between the hedged item and the hedge instrument. Gains or losses generated by these hedge transactions are expected to offset changes in funding costs. All financial derivatives are recorded on the balance sheet at fair value as a freestanding

asset or liability.

2223

The following tables summarize information related to Farmer Mac's financial derivatives on a gross basis without giving consideration to master netting arrangements. The table below includes accrued interest on cleared swaps, but excludes ~~$4.3~~$14.3 million and ~~$3.0~~$6.1 million of accrued interest receivable and ~~$1.5~~$6.3 million and ~~$1.9~~$3.6 million of accrued interest payable on uncleared swaps as of September 30, ~~2022~~2023 and December 31, ~~2021,~~2022, respectively. The aforementioned accrued interest on uncleared swaps is included within Accrued Interest Receivable and Accrued Interest Payable on the ~~Consolidated Balance Sheet.~~consolidated balance sheets.

As of September 30, ~~2022,~~2023, Farmer Mac expects to reclassify ~~$12.9~~$16.6 million after-tax from accumulated other comprehensive income to earnings over the next twelve months related to cash flow hedges. This amount could differ from amounts actually recognized due to changes in interest rates, hedge de-designations, and the addition of other hedges after September 30, ~~2022.~~2023. During the three and nine months ended September 30, ~~2022~~2023 and ~~2021,~~2022, there were no gains or losses from interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges reclassified to earnings because it was probable that the originally forecasted transactions would occur.

(1)As of September 30, ~~2022~~2023 and ~~2021,~~2022, allowance for losses for Agricultural Finance ~~mortgage~~Farm & Ranch loans includes ~~$1.7~~$1.1 million and ~~$1.8 million~~no allowance for collateral dependent assets secured by agricultural real estate, respectively.

(2)As of September 30, 2023 and 2022, allowance for losses for Agricultural Finance Corporate AgFinance loans includes $0.0 million and $1.7 million allowance for collateral dependent assets secured by agricultural real estate, respectively.

(3)As of both September 30, ~~2022~~2023 and ~~2021,~~2022, allowance for losses for Rural Infrastructure Finance loans includes no allowance for collateral dependent assets.

The $3.6 million net provision to the allowance for the Rural Infrastructure Finance portfolio during the quarter ended September 30, 2023 was primarily attributable to a single telecommunications loan that was downgraded to substandard during the quarter. The $3.7 million net release from the allowance for the Agricultural Finance mortgage loan portfolio during the quarter ended September 30, 2023 was primarily attributable to the full payoff of a single collateral dependent storage and processing loan.

The $0.7 million net provision to the allowance for the Rural Infrastructure Finance portfolio during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was primarily attributable to a single telecommunications loan that was downgraded to substandard during the most recent quarter. The $0.8 million net provision to the allowance for the Agricultural Finance mortgage loan portfolio during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was primarily attributable to increased loan volume and certain risk rating downgrades.

The net provision to the allowance for Rural Infrastructure Finance loan losses of $0.4 million recorded

during third quarter 2022 was primarily attributable to net new loan volume. The $0.2 million net

provision to the allowance for the Agricultural Finance mortgage loan portfolio during third quarter 2022

was primarily attributable to the deterioration of a single agricultural storage and processing loan.

The $1.8 million net release from the allowance for the Rural Infrastructure Finance portfolio for the nine

months ended September 30, 2022 was primarily attributable to improvements in forecasts of future

economic conditions, and a first quarter risk rating upgrade on a single loan. The risk rating upgrade on

that loan reflected that borrower's successful securitization of its large payable that arose during the arctic

freeze that struck Texas in February 2021. The $0.8 million net provision to the allowance for the

Agricultural Finance mortgage loan portfolio for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was

primarily attributable to a risk rating downgrade on a single agricultural storage and processing loan.

The release from the allowance for Rural Infrastructure Finance loan losses of $0.1 million recorded during third quarter 2021 was primarily attributable to the impact of improving economic factor forecasts. The $0.4 million provision to the allowance for the Agricultural Finance mortgage loan portfolio during third quarter 2021 was primarily attributable to a decline in the economic factor forecast for commodity prices in Farmer Mac's fruit and nuts portfolio.

~~The net provision recorded to the allowance for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 was primarily~~

a result of the impact of the Texas Arctic Freeze on the Rural Infrastructure Finance portfolio, partially offset by improving economic factor forecasts. The net release from the allowance for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 was primarily a result of improving agricultural commodity prices on the Agricultural Finance mortgage loan portfolio in the first half of the year, partially offset by declines in the third quarter.

The following table presents the unpaid principal balances by delinquency status of Farmer Mac's loans and non-performing assets as of September 30, ~~2022~~2023 and December 31, ~~2021:~~2022:

Eligible loans and other eligible assets may be placed into trusts that are used as vehicles for the securitization of the transferred assets and the Farmer Mac-guaranteed beneficial interests in the trusts are sold to investors. During third quarter 2022, Farmer Mac executed a structured securitization transaction, whereby it sold and securitized agricultural mortgage loans resulting in $297.7 million of Farmer Mac Guaranteed Securities. In this transaction, Farmer Mac transferred selected loans to a depositor which then deposited the loans into a trust, at which time the loans became assets of the trust. Farmer Mac does not consider these trust fund assets to be available to satisfy the claims of the creditors of Farmer Mac and/or the depositor.

The following table summarizes the significant cash flows received from and paid to trusts used for Farmer Mac securitizations:

Authority to Borrow from the U.S. Treasury

Farmer Mac's statutory charter authorizes it, upon satisfying certain conditions, to borrow up to $1.5 billion from the U.S. Treasury through the issuance of debt obligations to the U.S. Treasury. Any funds borrowed from the U.S. Treasury may be used solely to fulfill Farmer Mac's guarantee obligations. Any debt obligations issued by Farmer Mac under this authority would bear interest at a rate determined by the U.S. Treasury, taking into consideration the average rate on outstanding marketable obligations of the United States as of the last day of the last calendar month ending before the date of the purchase of the obligations from Farmer Mac. The charter requires Farmer Mac to repurchase any of its debt obligations held by the U.S. Treasury within a reasonable time. As of September 30, ~~2022,~~2023, Farmer Mac had not used this borrowing authority.

Gains on ~~Repurchase~~Repurchases of Outstanding Debt

No outstanding debt repurchases were made in the ~~three and~~ nine months ended September 30, ~~2022. During the three~~2023 and ~~nine months ended September 30, 2021, Farmer Mac repurchased $23.0 million of~~

~~outstanding debt at a gain of $14,000.~~2022.

Common Stock

During each of the first, second, and third quarters 2023, Farmer Mac paid a quarterly dividend of $1.10 per share on all classes of its common stock. For each quarter in 2022, Farmer Mac paid a quarterly dividend of $0.95 per share on all classes of its common stock. ~~For each quarter in 2021, Farmer Mac paid a quarterly dividend of $0.88 per share on all classes of its common stock.~~

Farmer Mac's board of directors approved a share repurchase program during third quarter 2015 authorizing Farmer Mac to repurchase up to $25.0 million of its outstanding Class C non-voting common stock. The share repurchase program, last modified on March 14, 2019, authorized Farmer Mac to

repurchase up to $10.0 million of Farmer Mac's outstanding Class C non-voting common stock. During first quarter 2020, Farmer Mac repurchased approximately 4,000 shares of Class C non-voting common stock at a cost of approximately $0.2 million. Shortly after these repurchases were completed, Farmer Mac indefinitely suspended its share repurchase program in an effort to preserve capital and liquidity in view of market volatility and uncertainty caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. In March 2021, Farmer Mac's board of directors reinstated the share repurchase program on its previous terms (with a remaining authorization of up to $9.8 million in stock repurchases) and extended the expiration date of the program to March 2023. Farmer Mac did not repurchase any shares of its Class C non-voting common stock during that two-year period. In February 2023, Farmer Mac's board of directors renewed the ~~first nine months~~share repurchase program on its previous terms (with a remaining authorization of ~~2022.~~up to $9.8 million in stock repurchases) and extended the expiration date of the program to February 2025. Farmer Mac did not repurchase any shares of its Class C non-voting common stock during third quarter 2023. As of September 30, ~~2022,~~2023, Farmer Mac had repurchased approximately 673,000 shares of Class C non-voting common stock at a cost of approximately $19.8 million under the share repurchase program since 2015.

As of both September 30, ~~2022~~2023 and December 31, ~~2021,~~2022, the minimum capital requirement was greater than the risk-based capital requirement. Farmer Mac's ability to declare and pay dividends could be restricted if it fails to comply with applicable capital requirements.

As of September 30, ~~2022,~~2023, Farmer Mac's minimum capital requirement was ~~$781.7~~$840.1 million and its core capital level was ~~$1.3~~$1.4 billion, which was ~~$513.9~~$581.1 million above the minimum capital requirement as of that date.

The significant unobservable input used in the fair value measurements of AgVantage Farmer Mac Guaranteed Securities is the discount rate commensurate with the risks involved. Typically, significant increases (decreases) in this input in isolation may result in materially lower (higher) fair value measurements. Generally, in a rising interest rate environment, Farmer Mac would expect average discount rates to increase. Conversely, in a declining interest rate environment, Farmer Mac would expect average discount rates to decrease. Prepayment rates are not presented in the table above for AgVantage

securities because they generally have fixed maturity dates when the secured general obligations are due and do not prepay.

The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurements of USDA Securities are the prepayment rate and discount rate commensurate with the risks involved. Typically, significant increases (decreases) in any of these inputs in isolation may result in materially lower (higher) fair value measurements. Generally, in a rising interest rate environment, Farmer Mac would expect average discount rates to increase and would likely expect a corresponding decrease in forecasted prepayment rates. Conversely, in a declining interest rate environment, Farmer Mac would expect average discount rates to decrease and would likely expect a corresponding increase in forecasted prepayment rates.

The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents is a reasonable estimate of their approximate fair value and is classified as Level 1. The fair value of investments in U.S. Treasuries are valued based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets and are classified as Level 1. A significant portion of Farmer Mac's investment portfolio is valued using a reputable nationally recognized third-party pricing service. The prices obtained are non-binding and generally representative of recent market trades and are classified as Level 2. Farmer Mac internally models the fair value of its loan portfolio, including loans held for investment and loans held for investment in consolidated trusts, Farmer Mac Guaranteed Securities, and USDA Securities by discounting the projected cash flows of these instruments at projected interest rates. The fair values are based on the present value of expected cash flows using management's best estimate of certain key assumptions, which include prepayment speeds, forward yield curves and discount rates commensurate with the risks involved. These fair value measurements do not take into consideration the fair value of the underlying property and are classified as Level 3. Financial derivatives primarily are valued using ~~unadjusted counterparty valuations and are classified as Level 2. The fair value~~the market standard methodology of netting the discounted future fixed cash payments (or

receipts) and the discounted expected variable cash receipts (or payments) and are classified as Level 2. The fair value of the guarantee fees receivable/obligation and debt securities of consolidated trusts are estimated based on the present value of expected future cash flows of the underlying mortgage assets using management's best estimate of certain key assumptions, which include prepayments speeds, forward yield curves, and discount rates commensurate with the risks involved and are classified as Level 3. Notes payable are valued by discounting the expected cash flows of these instruments using a yield curve derived from market prices observed for similar agency securities and are also classified as Level 3. Because the cash flows of Farmer Mac's financial instruments may be interest rate path dependent, estimated fair values and projected discount rates for Level 3 financial instruments are derived using a Monte Carlo simulation model. Different market assumptions and estimation methodologies could significantly affect estimated fair value amounts.

The following table presents the alignment of the Farmer Mac's seven segments:

Agricultural Finance

Rural Infrastructure Finance

Treasury

Farm & Ranch

Corporate AgFinance

Rural Utilities

Renewable Energy

Funding

Investments

Corporate

The financial information presented below reflects the accounts of Farmer Mac and its subsidiaries on a

consolidated basis. Accordingly, the core earnings for Farmer Mac's segments would differ from any stand-alone financial statements of Farmer Mac's subsidiaries. These differences would be due to various factors, including the exclusion of unrealized gains and losses related to fair value changes of trading assets and financial derivatives, as well as the allocation of certain expenses such as operating expenses, dividends and interest expense related to the issuance of capital and the issuance of indebtedness managed at the corporate level.

The following tables present core earnings for Farmer Mac's segments and a reconciliation to consolidated net income for the three and nine months ended September 30, ~~2022~~2023 and ~~2021. The amounts for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 have been revised to conform to the current year's segment alignment.~~2022.

~~11.REVISION OF PRIOR PERIOD FINANCIAL STATEMENTS~~

Farmer Mac revised certain prior period financial statements to correct an error related to the recognition of accrual of interest for derivative contracts cleared through the swap clearinghouse, the CME. Farmer Mac determined that the error was immaterial to these previous consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole. Although Farmer Mac has concluded these errors are immaterial to the previously issued consolidated financial statements, Farmer Mac has corrected this error by revising the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Farmer Mac will also correct previously reported financial information for such immaterial errors in future filings, as applicable. The following tables summarize the effect of the revision on each financial statement line item:

Overview

Farmer Mac is a mission-focused, purpose-driven company determined to ~~improve the~~drive economic opportunity ~~in rural America~~and prosperity by increasing the ~~availability~~accessibility of financing for American agriculture and ~~affordability of credit.~~rural infrastructure. As the nation’s secondary market for agricultural and rural infrastructure loans, we ~~provide~~help strengthen and connect rural America by providing a broad array of financial solutions to lenders that support flexible low-cost financing to farmers, ranchers, agribusinesses, renewable energy projects, rural utilities, and other related rural businesses and enterprises. Farmer Mac also serves as a critical investment tool for entities such as states, counties, municipalities, pension funds, banks, public trust funds, and credit unions. Farmer Mac offers those entities a variety of investment opportunities that may diversify their investment portfolios and provide the opportunity to earn a competitive return on their investment dollars.

During third quarter 2023:

•we continued to increase net income and core earnings;

•we maintained strong liquidity in our investment portfolio well above regulatory requirements;

•we maintained our strong capital position, well above regulatory requirements, and uninterrupted access to the debt capital markets, which historically have not been subject to the same short-term disruptions and liquidity concerns experienced by institutions that rely primarily on deposits to fund their assets; and

•we provided $2.3 billion in liquidity and lending capacity to lenders serving rural America.

Farmer Mac’s performance during third quarter ~~2022,~~2023, described in more detail below, reflects the success of our continued focus on pursuing new channels and innovative ways to further our mission to ~~help build a strong~~increase the accessibility of financing for American agriculture and ~~vital~~ rural ~~America.~~infrastructure. Despite ongoing macroeconomic concerns ~~and potential headwinds~~ such as ~~deteriorating macroeconomic conditions,~~ inflation, failures and liquidity concerns in the banking industry, rising interest rates, ~~the COVID-19 pandemic,~~ and ~~war in Ukraine,~~geopolitical conflicts, Farmer Mac ~~delivered~~continued to deliver solid financial results. These financial results ~~in the first three quarters of 2022~~for third quarter 2023 reflected a variety of factors, including: ~~(1)~~

•the resilience of the farm economy, as producers have benefited from healthy farm incomes and liquidity from relatively high commodity prices ~~resulting from heightened demand, with revenues rising faster than the costs of inputs; (2)~~ in 2021 and 2022;

•an increase in ~~Farmer Mac's~~ outstanding business volume at higher spreads while credit quality improved; ~~(3) Farmer Mac's~~

•our disciplined approach to interest rate risk management that helps to protect earnings from the effects of interest rate volatility and ~~are~~has been accretive to Farmer Mac during periods of rising interest rates; and ~~(4) Farmer Mac's~~

•effective ~~funding~~capital strategies that resulted in advantageous funding ~~during the first nine months of 2022, which have also benefited from the~~in a rising interest rate environment in the current period.

The discussion below of Farmer Mac's financial information includes "non-GAAP measures," which are measures of financial performance not presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP"). For more information about the non-GAAP measures Farmer Mac uses, see "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Use of Non-GAAP Measures."

Net Income and Core Earnings

The following table shows our net income attributable to common stockholders and core earnings for the periods presented. Core earnings and core earnings per share are non-GAAP measures that differ from net income attributable to common stockholders and earnings per common share, respectively, by excluding the effects of fair value fluctuations and specified infrequent or unusual transactions.

The ~~$0.4~~$10.9 million sequential decrease in net income attributable to common stockholders was due to a $2.4 million after-tax decrease in the fair value of undesignated financial derivatives and a $1.6 million after-tax increase in the provision for credit losses. These factors were partially offset by a $3.1 million after-tax increase in net interest income and a $0.5 million after-tax decrease in operating expenses.

~~The $6.1 million year-over-year~~ increase in net income attributable to common stockholders was due to a $7.1 million after-tax increase in net interest income, a $1.6 million after-tax increase in guarantee fees, a $1.0 million after-tax decrease in our provision for credit losses, and a ~~$1.3~~$0.8 million after-tax increase in the fair value of undesignated financial derivatives.

The $16.7 million year-over-year increase in net income attributable to common stockholders was due to a $15.6 million after-tax increase in net interest income, a $2.3 million after-tax increase in guarantee fees, a $1.5 million after-tax increase in the fair value of undesignated financial derivatives, and a $0.5 million after-tax decrease in our provision for credit losses. These factors were partially offset by a ~~$1.8~~$3.7 million after-tax increase in operating ~~expenses and a $0.4 million decrease in guarantee fees.~~expenses.

The ~~$2.6~~$3.0 million sequential increase in core earnings was due to a ~~$3.7~~$1.3 million after-tax increase in net effective spread and a $1.0 million after-tax decrease in our provision for credit losses.

The $11.8 million year-over-year increase in core earnings was due to a $14.0 million after-tax increase in net effective spread and a $0.5 million after-tax decrease in ~~operating expenses. These factors were partially offset by an increase in~~ our provision for credit losses, ~~of $1.6 million after tax.~~

~~The $5.7 million year-over-year increase in core earnings was due to a $7.7 million after-tax increase in net effective spread,~~ partially offset by a ~~$1.8~~$3.7 million after-tax increase in operating expenses.

Net Interest Income and Net Effective Spread

The following table shows our net interest income and net effective spread in both dollars and percentage yield or spread for the periods presented. Farmer Mac uses net effective spread, a non-GAAP measure, as an alternative to net interest income because management believes it is a useful metric that reflects the economics of the net spread between all the assets owned by Farmer Mac and all related funding, including any associated derivatives, some of which may not be included in net interest income.

The ~~$3.9~~$9.0 million sequential increase in net interest income was primarily due to a ~~$2.9~~$8.1 million ~~decrease in funding costs, due to increasing yields on interest-earning assets on our short-term investments that are funded by non-interest bearing excess equity, and an~~ increase ~~of $1.9 million from net new business volume. These factors were partially offset by a $1.2 million decrease~~ in the fair value of derivatives designated in fair value hedge accounting relationships (designated financial ~~derivatives.~~derivatives), and an increase of $0.8 million related to net new business volume. In percentage terms, the sequential ~~0.04%~~0.10% increase was primarily attributable to ~~a decrease of 0.04% in funding costs and an~~the increase ~~of 0.01% in net new business volume, partially offset by a decrease of 0.02%~~ in net fair value changes from designated financial ~~derivatives designated in hedge accounting relationships (designated financial derivatives).~~derivatives.

The ~~$8.9~~$19.8 million year-over-year increase in net interest income was primarily ~~attributable~~due to a ~~$6.0~~$10.7 million decrease in funding costs primarily due to our disciplined funding strategies and higher nominal interest rates that have led to an upward repricing of our excess capital that is held in our short-term investment portfolio, a $4.3 million increase ~~from~~related to net new business volume, and a ~~$5.5~~$3.8 million decrease in funding costs, due to increasing yields on interest-earning assets on our short-term investments that are funded by non-interest bearing excess equity. These factors were partially offset by a $2.6 million decreaseincrease in the fair value of derivatives designated in fair value hedge accounting relationships (designated financial ~~derivatives.~~derivatives). In percentage terms, the ~~year-over-year 0.04%~~0.18% increase was primarily attributable to a decrease of ~~0.07%~~0.14% in funding costs ~~partially offset by a decrease~~and an increase of ~~0.04%~~0.05% in net fair value changes from designated financial ~~derivatives designated in hedge accounting relationships (designated financial derivatives).~~derivatives.

The ~~$4.7~~$1.6 million sequential increase in net effective spread ~~in dollars~~ was primarily due to ana decrease of $1.2 million in non-GAAP funding costs due to the same factors mentioned above that decreased our funding costs. In percentage terms, net effective spread remained relatively constant.

The $17.8 million year-over-year increase ~~of $3.2 million from~~in net ~~new business volume and~~effective spread was primarily due to a ~~$2.2~~$14.8 million decrease in non-GAAP funding costs, due to ~~increasing yields on interest-earning assets on~~the same factors mentioned above that decreased our ~~short-term investments that are funded by non-interest bearing excess equity. These factors were partially offset by a $0.4 million decrease in cash-basis~~

~~interest income. In percentage terms, the sequential increase of 0.04% was primarily attributable to a decrease of 0.04% in non-GAAP~~ funding costs, and ana $3.5 million increase ~~of 0.02% in~~related to net new business volume.

The $9.7 million year-over-year increase in net effective spread in dollars was primarily due to a $7.1 million increase from net new business volume, a $2.3 million decrease in non-GAAP funding costs, due to increasing yields on interest-earning assets on our short-term investments that are funded by non-interest bearing excess equity, and a $0.6 million increase in cash-basis interest income. In percentage terms, the year-over-year increase of ~~0.04%~~0.17% was primarily attributable to ana decrease ~~of 0.01%~~ in non-GAAP funding ~~costs and an increase of 0.02% in net new business volume.~~costs.

For more information about Farmer Mac's use of net effective spread as a financial measure, see "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Use of Non-GAAP Measures." For a reconciliation of net interest income to net effective spread, see Table 10 in "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Results of Operations—Net Interest Income."

Business Volume

Our outstanding business volume was ~~$25.3~~$27.7 billion as of September 30, ~~2022,~~2023, a net increase of ~~$0.8~~$0.9 billion from June 30, ~~2022~~2023 after taking into account all new business, maturities, ~~sales,~~ and paydowns on existing assets. The net increase was primarily attributable to a net ~~increases~~increase of ~~$0.2 billion~~$509.1 million in the Rural Infrastructure Finance line of business and ~~$0.7 billion~~a net increase of $405.9 million in the Agricultural Finance line of business.

The ~~increase~~decrease of ~~$5.4~~$6.4 million in on-balance sheet substandard assets during the third quarter was primarily driven by ~~credit downgrades in permanent plantings, part-time farms, and~~the full payoff of a substandard agricultural storage and processing ~~partially offset by credit upgrades during the quarter in crops and livestock.~~loan. The on-balance sheet Agricultural Finance mortgage loan portfolio grew by $176.3 million, but the net credit downgrades had an offsetting impact, which caused the percentage of substandard assets to remain constant. The $12.2$8.1 million decrease in substandard assets in our off-balance sheet ~~LTSPC and Farmer Mac Guaranteed Securities~~ portfolios during third quarter was primarily due to credit upgrades in livestock, permanent plantings, crops, ~~livestock~~ and part-time farms.

There ~~were no~~was one substandard ~~assets~~asset with an outstanding balance of $29.5 million in the Rural Infrastructure Finance portfolio as of September 30, ~~2022~~2023, and ~~one loan classified as~~there were no substandard ~~in that portfolio~~assets as of December 31, ~~2021.~~2022.

~~COVID-19 Pandemic~~

Farmer Mac has operated successfully throughout the COVID-19 pandemic with most employees still working remotely. Farmer Mac has adopted a "Presence with Purpose" work arrangement, a flexible, hybrid approach under which employees spend a combination of time working remotely or in one of Farmer Mac's offices depending on the nature of the work and the related business needs. Farmer Mac has maintained uninterrupted access to the debt capital markets and remains a source of capital and liquidity to rural borrowers facing economic or market volatility stemming from the ongoing pandemic. For more information on the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on Farmer Mac's business, see "Business—Human Capital" in the 2021 Annual Report and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Outlook" in the 2021 Annual Report and in this report.

Use of Non-GAAP Measures

In the accompanying analysis of its financial information, Farmer Mac uses "non-GAAP measures," which are measures of financial performance that are not presented in accordance with GAAP. Specifically, Farmer Mac uses the following non-GAAP measures: "core earnings," "core earnings per share," and "net

effective spread." Farmer Mac uses these non-GAAP measures to measure corporate economic performance and develop financial plans because, in management's view, they are useful alternative measures in understanding Farmer Mac's economic performance, transaction economics, and business trends.

The non-GAAP financial measures that Farmer Mac uses may not be comparable to similarly labeled non-GAAP financial measures disclosed by other companies. Farmer Mac's disclosure of these non-GAAP measures is intended to be supplemental in nature and is not meant to be considered in isolation from, as a substitute for, or as more important than, the related financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Core Earnings and Core Earnings Per Share

The main difference between core earnings and core earnings per share (non-GAAP measures) and net income attributable to common stockholders and earnings per common share (GAAP measures) is that those non-GAAP measures exclude the effects of fair value fluctuations. These fluctuations are not expected to have a cumulative net impact on Farmer Mac's financial condition or results of operations reported in accordance with GAAP if the related financial instruments are held to maturity, as is expected. Another difference is that these two non-GAAP measures exclude specified infrequent or unusual transactions that we believe are not indicative of future operating results and that may not reflect the trends and economic financial performance of Farmer Mac's core business. ~~For example, we have excluded from core earnings and core earnings per share any losses on retirement of preferred stock.~~ For a reconciliation of Farmer Mac's net income attributable to common stockholders to core earnings and of earnings per common share to core earnings per share, see "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Results of Operations."

Net Effective Spread

Farmer Mac uses net effective spread to measure the net spread Farmer Mac earns between its interest-earning assets and the related net funding costs of these assets. As further explained below, net effective spread differs from net interest income and net interest yield by excluding certain items from net interest income and net interest yield and including certain other items that net interest income and net interest yield do not contain.

Farmer Mac excludes from net effective spread the interest income and interest expense associated with the consolidated trusts and the average balance of the loans underlying these trusts to reflect management's view that the net interest income Farmer Mac earns on the related Farmer Mac Guaranteed Securities owned by third parties is effectively a guarantee fee. Accordingly, the excluded interest income and interest expense associated with consolidated trusts is reclassified to guarantee and commitment fees in determining Farmer Mac's core earnings. Farmer Mac also excludes from net effective spread the fair value changes of financial derivatives and the corresponding assets or liabilities designated in fair value hedge accounting relationships because they are not expected to have an economic effect on Farmer Mac's financial performance, as we expect to hold the financial derivatives and corresponding hedged items to maturity.

Net effective spread also differs from net interest income and net interest yield because it includes the accrual of income and expense related to the contractual amounts due on financial derivatives that are not designated in hedge accounting relationships ("undesignated financial derivatives"). Farmer Mac uses

interest rate swaps to manage its interest rate risk exposure by synthetically modifying the interest rate reset or maturity characteristics of certain assets and liabilities. The accrual of the contractual amounts due on interest rate swaps designated in hedge accounting relationships is included as an adjustment to the yield or cost of the hedged item and is included in net interest income. For undesignated financial derivatives, Farmer Mac records the income or expense related to the accrual of the contractual amounts due in ~~"Gains/(losses)~~"Gains on financial derivatives" on the consolidated statements of operations. However, the accrual of the contractual amounts due for undesignated financial derivatives are included in Farmer Mac's calculation of net effective spread.

Net effective spread also differs from net interest income and net interest yield because it includes the net effects of terminations or net settlements on financial derivatives, which consist of: (1) the net effects of cash settlements on agency forward contracts on the debt of other GSEs and U.S. Treasury security futures

that we use as short-term economic hedges on the issuance of debt; and (2) the net effects of initial cash payments that Farmer Mac receives upon the inception of certain swaps. The inclusion of these items in net effective spread is intended to reflect our view of the complete net spread between an asset and all of its related funding, including any associated derivatives, whether or not they are designated in a hedge accounting relationship.

For a reconciliation of net interest income and net interest yield to net effective spread, see Table 10 in "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Results of Operations—Net Interest Income."

The non-GAAP reconciling items between net income attributable to common stockholders and core earnings are:

1. Gains/(losses) on financial derivatives due to fair value changes are presented by two reconciling items in Table 6 above: (a) ~~Gains/(losses)~~Gains on undesignated financial derivatives due to fair value changes; and (b) (Losses)/gains on hedging activities due to fair value changes.

2. Unrealized gains/(losses)~~/gains~~ on trading securities. The unrealized gains/(losses)~~/gains~~ on trading securities are reported on Farmer Mac's consolidated statements of operations, which represent changes during the period in fair values for trading assets remaining on Farmer Mac's balance sheet as of the end of the reporting period.

3. The net effects of amortization of premiums/discounts and deferred gains on assets consolidated at fair value. The amount of this non-GAAP reconciling item is the recorded amount of premium, discount, or deferred gain amortization during the reporting period on those assets for which the premium, discount, or deferred gain was based on the application of an accounting principle (e.g., consolidation of variable interest entities) rather than on a cash transaction (e.g., a purchase price premium or discount).

4. The net effects of terminations or net settlements on financial derivatives. These terminations or net settlements relate to:

•Forward contracts on the debt of other GSEs and futures contracts on U.S. Treasury securities. These contracts are used as a short-term economic hedge of the issuance of debt. For GAAP purposes, realized gains or losses on settlements of these contracts are reported in the consolidated statements of operations in the period in which they occur. For core earnings purposes, these realized gains or losses are deferred and amortized as net yield adjustments over the term of the related debt, which generally ranges from 3 to 15 years.

The following sections provide more detail about specific components of Farmer Mac's results of operations.

Net Interest Income. The following table provides information about interest-earning assets and funding for the three and nine months ended September 30, ~~2022~~2023 and ~~2021.~~2022. The average balance of non-accruing loans is included in the average balance of loans, Farmer Mac Guaranteed Securities, and USDA Securities presented, though the related income is accounted for on a cash basis. Therefore, as the average balance of non-accruing loans and the income received increases or decreases, the net interest income and yield will fluctuate accordingly. The average balance of loans in consolidated trusts with beneficial interests owned by third parties and for which Farmer Mac guarantees all classes of securities issued is disclosed in the net effect of consolidated trusts and is not included in the average balances of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. The interest income and expense associated with these trusts are shown in the net effect of consolidated trusts.

The ~~$29.2~~$48.1 million year-over-year increase in net interest income was primarily due to a ~~$12.3 million increase from net new business volume, a $12.0~~$40.3 million decrease in funding costs primarily due to ~~increasing yields on interest-earning assets,~~our disciplined funding strategies and higher nominal interest rates that have led to an upward repricing of our excess capital that is held in our short-term investment portfolio, and a ~~$4.5~~$17.0 million increase related to net new business volume. These factors were partially offset by a $7.7 million decrease in the fair value of derivatives designated in fair value hedge accounting

relationships (designated financial derivatives). and a $1.1 million decrease in cash-basis interest income. In percentage terms, the ~~year-over-year 0.07%~~0.13% increase was primarily attributable to ~~an increase~~a decrease of ~~0.06% related to the decrease~~0.18% in funding ~~costs.~~costs, partially offset by a decrease of 0.04% in net fair value changes from designated financial derivatives.

The following table sets forth information about changes in the components of Farmer Mac's net interest income prior to consolidation of certain trusts for the periods indicated. For each category, information is provided on changes attributable to changes in volume (change in volume multiplied by old rate), and changes in rate (change in rate multiplied by old volume), and then allocated based on the relative size of rate and volume changes from the prior period.

The following table presents a reconciliation of net interest income and net interest yield to net effective spread. Net effective spread is measured by: including (1) expenses related to undesignated financial derivatives, which consists of income or expense related to contractual amounts due on financial derivatives not designated in hedge relationships (the income or expense related to financial derivatives designated in hedge accounting relationships is already included in net interest income), and (2) the amortization of losses due to terminations or net settlements of financial derivatives; and excluding ~~(3)~~(1) the amortization of premiums and discounts on assets consolidated at fair value, ~~(4)~~(2) the net effects of consolidated trusts with beneficial interests owned by third parties, and ~~(5)~~(3) the fair value changes of financial derivatives and corresponding financial assets or liabilities in fair value hedge relationships.

During the three months ended September 30, ~~2022,~~2023, we recorded a ~~$0.5~~$0.2 million ~~provision to~~release from the allowance for losses primarily as a result of ~~further deterioration of one~~a single collateral dependent agricultural storage and processing loan ~~and net new~~that fully paid off during the quarter, partially offset by one rural infrastructure loan ~~volume.~~that was downgraded to substandard during the quarter. During the nine months ended September 30, ~~2022~~2023, we recorded a ~~$1.1~~$1.7 million ~~release from~~provision to the allowance ~~primarily~~for loan losses as a result of ~~updated credit loss model forecast assumptions and improvements in risk ratings, partially offset by a risk rating downgrade of~~ the ~~one agricultural storage and processing loan mentioned previously.~~above-mentioned rural infrastructure loan.

Guarantee and Commitment Fees. The following table presents guarantee and commitment fees, which compensate Farmer Mac for assuming the credit risk on loans underlying off-balance sheet Farmer Mac Guaranteed Securities and LTSPCs, for the three and nine months ended September 30, ~~2022~~2023 and ~~2021:~~2022:

Guarantee and commitment fees ~~decreased~~increased for the three months ended September 30, 2022 compared to 2021, which was due to a decrease in the fair value of retained beneficial interests in off-balance sheet structured securitizations during third quarter 2022. Guarantee and ~~commitment fees increased for the~~ nine months ended September 30, ~~2022~~2023 compared to ~~2021,~~2022, which was due to increases in the average outstanding balance of LTSPCs during the period. As adjusted for the core earnings presentation, guarantee and commitment fees were $4.8 million and $14.1 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively, compared to $4.2 million and $13.5 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, ~~respectively, compared to $4.3 million and $12.9 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021,~~ respectively.

In Farmer Mac's presentation of core earnings, guarantee and commitment fees include interest income and interest expense related to consolidated trusts owned by third parties to reflect management's view that the net interest income Farmer Mac earns is effectively a guarantee fee on those consolidated Farmer Mac Guaranteed Securities. ~~Additionally,~~ Farmer Mac has also excluded guarantee asset fair value changes from the presentation of core earnings because these fluctuations are not expected to have a cumulative net impact on Farmer Mac's financial condition or results of operations if Farmer Mac fulfills its guarantee obligation throughout the term of the guaranteed securities, as is expected.

For more information about net income attributable to common stockholders, the composition of core earnings, and a reconciliation of net income attributable to common stockholders to core earnings, see Table 6 in "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Results of Operations."

These changes in fair value are primarily the result of fluctuations in long-term interest rates. The accrual of periodic cash settlements for interest paid or received from Farmer Mac's interest rate swaps that are undesignated financial derivatives is shown as expense related to financial derivatives. Payments or receipts to terminate undesignated derivative positions or net cash settled forward sales contracts on the debt of other GSEs and undesignated U.S. Treasury security futures and initial cash payments received upon the inception of certain undesignated swaps are included in "Gains/(losses) due to terminations or net settlements" in the table above.

The increase in other income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to 2021 is primarily due to an increase in fees related to Farmer Mac's master and central servicing operations for off-balance sheet Farmer Mac Guaranteed Securities, partially offset by a decrease in loan rate modification fees.

Farmer Mac either retains the loans it purchases or securitizes them and retains or sells Farmer Mac Guaranteed Securities backed by those securitized loans. During ~~third~~first quarter ~~2022,~~2023, Farmer Mac executed a

its third structured securitization transaction, whereby it sold and securitized agricultural mortgage loans resulting in ~~$297.7~~$281.0 million of Farmer Mac Guaranteed Securities. In this transaction, Farmer Mac transferred selected loans to a depositor which then deposited the loans into a trust, at which time the loans became assets of the trust. Farmer Mac concluded that it was the primary beneficiary of the trust because Farmer Mac retained significant interest and has power over the activities most significant to the economic performance of the Variable Interest Entity in its role as Master Servicer. Therefore, Farmer Mac consolidates the assets and liabilities of the trust for this structured securitization. Farmer Mac does not consider ~~these~~the assets held by the related securitization trust ~~fund assets~~ to be available to satisfy the claims of the creditors of Farmer Mac and/or the depositor.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, ~~2022~~2023 and ~~2021,~~2022, Farmer Mac realized no gains or losses from the securitization of loans that it holds in consolidated trusts. Farmer Mac consolidates these loans and presents them as "Loans held for investment in consolidated trusts, at amortized cost" on the consolidated balance sheets.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, ~~2022~~2023 and ~~2021,~~2022, Farmer Mac realized no gains or losses from the issuance of Farmer Mac Guaranteed USDA Securities or AgVantage Securities.

Outlook

Farmer Mac continues to provide a stable source of liquidity, capital, and risk management tools as a secondary market that helps meet the financing needs of rural America. The pace and trajectory of Farmer Mac's growth will depend on the capital and liquidity needs of the lending institutions ~~in servicing~~serving agriculture and rural infrastructure businesses and the overall financial health of borrowers in the sectors we serve. Market interest rates have increased significantly since the lows experienced in 2021, and interest rates on Farmer Mac products during third quarter 2023 continued to be higher than Farmer Mac's 15-year historical averages. New loan origination volumes tend to correlate inversely with changes in interest rates. However, prepayment rates also generally correlate inversely with changes in interest rates, with higher interest rates typically slowing the pace of portfolio loan repayments. Future changes to monetary policy and the overall level, pace, and duration of elevated interest rates could continue to impact the pace and timing of the Agricultural Finance mortgage loan purchase demand and repayments. Farmer Mac anticipates positive momentum in wholesale volume refinancing activity in fourth quarter 2023, with most of the AgVantage Securities scheduled to mature in fourth quarter 2023 expected to be successfully refinanced through the purchase of new AgVantage Securities.

Farmer Mac foresees opportunities for profitable growth across our lines of business driven by several key factors:

•As agricultural and rural infrastructure lenders seek to manage liquidity, equity capital, and return on equity capital requirements or reduce exposure due to lending or concentration limits, Farmer Mac can provide relief for those institutions through loan and portfolio purchases, participations, guarantees, LTSPCs, wholesale funding, or securitizations.

•As a result of business and product development efforts and continued interest in the agricultural and rural infrastructure asset ~~class~~classes from institutional investors and nontraditional ~~agricultural real estate~~ lenders, Farmer Mac's customer base and product set continue to expand and diversify, which may generate more demand for Farmer Mac's products from new sources.

•Farmer Mac's growing relationships with larger regional and national lenders, as well as consolidation within the agricultural and rural infrastructure lending industry, continue to provide opportunities that could influence Farmer Mac's loan and wholesale funding demand and increase the average transaction size within Farmer Mac's lines of business.

•Future growth opportunities in Farmer Mac's Rural Infrastructure Finance line of business may evolve by deepening business relationships with eligible counterparties, financing broadband-related capital expenditures and rural telecommunications facilities, growing opportunities for renewable energy project finance, and exploring new types of loan products. ~~These opportunities may be limited by sector growth, credit quality, and the competitiveness of Farmer Mac's products.~~

•Expansion and acquisition opportunities for agricultural producers resulting from high agricultural incomes and rising input costs have increased financing requirements for mergers and acquisitions, consolidation, and vertical integration across many sectors of the agricultural industry, which may also generate demand for Farmer Mac's loan products.

•Investments necessary to support consumer demand could increase the need for financing within the food and agriculture supply chain, which may increase the need for incremental capital support from the secondary market.

•Market interest rates have increased significantly since the lows experienced in 2021, and rates are now higher than Farmer Mac's 15-year historical averages. New loan origination and sales volumes tend to correlate inversely with changes in interest rates. However, prepayment rates also generally correlate inversely with changes in interest rates, with higher interest rates typically slowing the pace of portfolio loan repayments. Future changes to monetary policy and the overall level and pace of the increase in interest rates could continue to impact the pace and timing of Agricultural Finance mortgage loan purchase demand and repayments.

While agricultural commodity prices have thus far outpaced the significant increase in input costs, the impact on global commodity markets from the Ukraine conflict creates further uncertainty for farmers and ranchers in terms of global production, prices, and costs for the remainder of 2022 and into 2023.

In fact, certain economic disruptions could slow the pace of farm mortgage refinancing.

The U.S. economy continued to ~~slow~~exhibit signs of growing volatility in third quarter 2023.

And while labor markets continue to remain resilient, slower consumer spending, ~~and~~ declines in residential housing investment, and the continued tightening of credit conditions following bank industry stress indicate that the probability of a U.S. or global recession ~~is increasing.~~remains elevated. Farmer Mac believes that its portfolio is sufficiently balanced to withstand the market volatility that arises with an economic recession, as the agricultural, food, and infrastructure industries tend not to be directly correlated with the general economy. Farmer Mac believes these sectors are generally well positioned to withstand an economic downturn due to ample consumer demand and government support.

The recent rise in short-term rates has provided an asymmetric benefit to Farmer Mac's earnings, and Farmer Mac projects limited downside to earnings when rates decline due to its proactive equity capital allocation strategies. This is due to our fundamental asset liability management approach, where Farmer Mac matches the duration and convexity of our assets and liabilities in all rate environments, which enables Farmer Mac to minimize earnings volatility in periods of short-term interest rate volatility.

In addition to active fundamental asset liability management that enables Farmer Mac to mitigate earnings volatility in periods of short-term interest rate volatility, Farmer Mac's business has certain natural business hedges that help to insulate it from interest rate volatility. This is a key differentiator for Farmer Mac relative to other financial services entities. For example, when interest rates rise, prepayments also tend to decline - but interest earned on excess cash and capital would likely increase and Farmer Mac would continue to have strong market access, as Farmer Mac does not rely on deposits as a source of funding. Conversely, when interest rates decline, loan purchase volume often increases but prepayments also tend to increase. Farmer Mac is able to manage its interest rate risk through exercising callable issuances and maintaining its market-based credit spreads. Although these natural business dynamics are not perfect offsets, they do counterbalance to mitigate volatility from changes in short-term interest rates.

Operating Expense. Farmer Mac continues to expand its investments in human capital, technology, and business infrastructure to increase capacity and efficiency as it seeks to accommodate its growth opportunities and achieve its long-term strategic objectives. Farmer Mac expects continued increases in its operating expenses over the next several ~~years, along with business and revenue growth. We expect these efforts to continue and increase over the next 1 - 2 years as we continue to grow our revenue and diversify our funding sources.~~years. We will continue making investments in our infrastructure and funding platforms to support these strategies and scale with our growth.

During 2021, we closed on a strategic acquisition that enhanced our operations by expanding our internal loan servicing function and acquiring the loan servicing rights for a sizeable portion of our Farm & Ranch loan and USDA Securities portfolios. This acquisition should increase our interest income on our Farm & Ranch loans and USDA Securities that we service because there will not be any third-party central servicer retaining a central servicer fee on those assets. That increased interest income is expected to be partially offset by the increase in our operating expenses relating to our enhanced internal loan servicing operations. In the short term, we do not expect the effect on core earnings to be significant. In the medium to long term, the effect will depend on the size of our portfolio that we service and the long-run costs of our servicing operations.

The agricultural economy experienced ~~largely~~somewhat favorable conditions in third quarter ~~2022,~~2023, with ~~strong~~mixed commodity prices ~~partially offset by elevated~~and continued easing in input ~~prices.~~price inflation.

Looking forward, the USDA expects net cash farm income to fall by 27% to $148.6 billion in 2023 due to lower commodity prices and elevated farm expenses. However, the 2023 farm income projections are 20% higher than the 10-year average, demonstrating the continued strength in farm profitability.

~~The increase in~~Rising farm ~~profitability combined with~~incomes alongside low interest rates in 2020 and 2021 drove a rapid rise in land values and a decrease in farm delinquencies and bankruptcies. This trend has continued into 2023. Land value survey data from the USDA show a ~~12.4%~~7.4% increase in average farm real estate values from June ~~2021~~2022 to June ~~2022.~~2023. Annual farm real estate value gains were highest in the Northern Plains ~~(19.8%~~(13.7%) and the ~~Corn Belt (14.9%~~Southern Plains (9.4%) but also strong in the Lake states ~~(13.7%~~(8.2%), the ~~Southern Plains (11.3%~~Corn Belt (7.1%), and the ~~Pacific (9.7%~~Southeast (5.7%). The Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago AgLetter reported a ~~22%~~9% gain in farmland values in the Seventh District (primarily Iowa, Indiana, Illinois, and Wisconsin) between July ~~2021~~2022 and July ~~2022.~~2023.

While regional averages for farmland values provide a good barometer for the overall movement in U.S. farmland values, economic forces affecting land markets are highly localized, and some markets may experience greater volatility in farmland values than state or national averages indicate.

Finally, a changing yield curve coupled with widening market credit spreads could increase opportunities for corporate and institutional lending, as Farmer Mac's programs become more attractive at higher costs of capital. Combined, these factors are expected to be generally supportive of continued net portfolio growth for Farmer Mac ~~in fourth~~during the last quarter ~~2022.~~of 2023.

Positive economic conditions in the agricultural economy improved Farmer Mac's agricultural portfolio performance in 2022 and ~~they could continue to positively influence loan delinquencies and losses into~~throughout the first three quarters of 2023. Farmer Mac's 90-day delinquency levels ~~increased~~decreased slightly in third quarter ~~2022~~2023 relative to second quarter ~~2022.~~2023. The overall delinquency rate increased from 0.20% of the Farm & Ranch operating segment as of June 30, 2022 to 0.42% of the Farm & Ranch operating segment as of September 30, 2022, although the third quarter percentage is lower than the 0.58% delinquency rate as of September 30, 2021. The percentage of the portfolio rated substandard also continued to improve in third quarter 2022 to the lowest levels since

9089

~~2016. However, rising~~rate decreased from 0.42% of the Agricultural Finance line of business as of June 30, 2023 to 0.39% of the Agricultural Finance line of business as of September 30, 2023. The third quarter 2023 percentage is also slightly lower than the 0.42% delinquency rate as of September 30, 2022. The year-over-year decrease in the seriously delinquent rate was caused by typical, seasonal portfolio delinquency activity as well as a resolution of a large, agribusiness credit workout. The top five exposures of seriously delinquent loans as of third quarter 2023 represent over half of all 90-day delinquent loans. Rising input costs, market volatility, and the potential for continued economic and weather-related stress increase the level of uncertainty inherent in the agricultural credit sector, which could negatively affect the trajectory of the current agricultural cycle. Farmer Mac believes that its portfolio continues to be highly diversified, both geographically and by commodity and that its portfolio has been underwritten to high credit quality standards. Therefore, Farmer Mac believes that its portfolio is well-positioned to endure reasonably foreseeable volatility from cyclical and external factors. For more information about the loan balances, loan-to-value ratios, 90-day delinquencies, and substandard asset rate for the Agricultural Finance mortgage loans in Farmer Mac's portfolio as of September 30, ~~2022,~~2023, see "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Risk Management—Credit Risk—Loans and Guarantees."

Exogenous factors facing farm and food producers can create uncertainty and market instability within the sector. External market conditions that could adversely impact the farm and food sectors in the ~~remaining months~~remainder of ~~2022~~2023 and into ~~2023~~2024 include ~~U.S. dollar strength, supply chain disruptions,~~ foreign trade and trade policy, supply chain disruptions, and environmental conditions.

Severe weather conditions and long-term environmental change continue to shape agricultural sectors. The U.S. experienced 1518 separate billion-dollar weather disasters in ~~2022 through October 11,~~ 2022, as tracked by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. Many of those events affected agriculture, including midwestern storms, western wildfires, excessive heat, and drought.

For loans in other areas that commonly experience exceptional drought (primarily in California), Farmer Mac's underwriting process includes an assessment of anticipated long-term water availability for the related property and how that impacts the collateral value and borrower's cash flow position to mitigate that risk. During the latter part of third quarter 2022, hurricane Ian made landfall in southwestern Florida, and after crossing over the Florida peninsula, the hurricane made a second landfall in South Carolina. The storm caused significant damage and has

impacted numerous counties and communities in its wake. Farmer Mac is assessing any potential impacts to farmers, ranchers, and rural utility customers that were in the path of the hurricane Ian, but at this time, we do not anticipate any material risks to Farmer Mac customers or credit exposures. For more information about Farmer Mac's environmental risk mitigation requirements, see "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Risk Management—Credit Risk—Loans and Guarantees—Environmental Considerations" in Farmer Mac's 2021 Annual Report.

Rural Infrastructure Industry. Economic conditions affecting the rural infrastructure industry typically follow those in the general economy. According to data from the U.S. Energy Information Administration, sales and the revenue from the sale of electricity to customers ~~increased by 3.9%~~has slowed with an annual decline in sales of 1.2% and ~~14.2%~~an increase in revenue of 7.5%, respectively, in the last 12 months through July ~~2022~~2023 compared to July ~~2021.~~2022.

Natural gas prices rose consistently in 2021 and 2022 because of reduced supply and additional demand for U.S. liquified natural gas from European countries. Coal prices also rapidly increased in ~~third quarter~~ 2022, driven by higher natural gas prices and additional overseas demand to offset limited Russian coal exports. Despite higher input costs, power producers are generally able to pass cost increases through higher retail electricity prices, which has contributed to the increase in electricity costs ~~impacting~~for retail customers ~~during third quarter~~throughout 2022.

Through September 30, ~~2022,~~2023, Farmer Mac had not observed material degradation in the financial performance of its rural infrastructure portfolio, and that portfolio has never experienced a serious delinquency or default since inception.

These growth opportunities ~~for financing the electric cooperative industry~~ may be affected by the demand for electric power in rural areas, capital expenditures by electric cooperatives driven by regulatory or technological changes, the changing interest rate environment, increased policy initiatives to support rural connectivity, and competitive dynamics within the rural utilities cooperative finance industry. ~~Cooperatives~~Investment in rural telecommunications infrastructure continues to be robust for cooperative and ~~service~~non-cooperative providers ~~have~~due to their access to ~~numerous~~ federally funded programs, ~~in 2022,~~ such as USDA's Broadband Equity Access and Deployment Program (BEAD), the Federal Communications Commission's Rural Digital Opportunity Fund (RDOF), the USDA’s ReConnect, and the USDA’s Telecommunications Infrastructure Loan and Loan Guarantee program. In addition to capital projects spurred by these programs, Farmer Mac could see an increase in financing opportunities for other telecommunications providers in rural areas, with fiber line expansion and wireless broadband increasingly important to rural economic opportunity and precision agriculture.

~~The~~Finally, the growth in renewable energy generation and deployment of energy storage technologies may ~~help~~continue to deepen Farmer Mac's relationships with existing customers through new business opportunities. According to data from the U.S. Energy Information Administration, renewable electricity capacity is expected to grow by 48% in the next five years, compared to total electric capacity growth of 10%.

In response to this expected growth, Farmer Mac has deployed new financing products tailored to the renewable energy sector, which represents a new and growing market opportunity for Farmer

Mac. Under this ~~new~~ initiative, Farmer Mac's total outstanding loans and loan commitments of renewable energy financing transactions was ~~$196.2~~$330.6 million as of September 30, ~~2022.~~2023.

Legislative and Regulatory Outlook. Farmer Mac continues to monitor potential legislative and regulatory changes that could affect Farmer Mac or its stakeholders, including:

•On August 16, 2022, President Biden signed into law the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 ("IRA") which included debt relief for economically distressed borrowers of Farm Service Agency direct and guaranteed farm ownership and operating loans programs. Farmer Mac provides a secondary market for the USDA guaranteed portion of these loans. On October 18, 2022, USDA announced that approximately 11,000 delinquent direct and guaranteed borrowers had their accounts brought current. Notably, the relief provided was not full debt forgiveness that had been previously contemplated by the American Recovery Act. Farmer Mac does not anticipate an acceleration of prepayments on the USDA-guaranteed loans it holds due to the IRA debt relief provision.

•The IRA also included $20 billion for financial and technical assistance to help farmers and ranchers implement and expand conservation practices that help address climate change, as well as several renewable energy initiatives aimed at boosting long-term resiliency, reliability, and affordability of rural electric systems. Under the IRA, rural electric cooperatives are directly eligible for energy innovation tax credits for the first time. A new voluntary $9.7 billion USDA loan and grant program was also established for rural electric cooperatives that build or purchase renewable energy systems. These initiatives, together with other provisions in the IRA, aim to boost renewable energy production in rural areas, which could lead to increased business volumes for Farmer Mac’s Rural Infrastructure Finance business segment.

•The IRA also included a fifteen-percent alternative minimum tax on corporations with book incomes over $1 billion for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2022 and a one-percent excise tax on stock repurchases by public companies that occur after December 31, 2022. The IRA's corporate alternative minimum tax is not expected to apply to Farmer Mac any time in the near future based on the company's current level of reported financial statement income. Farmer Mac has sponsored a stock repurchase program since 2015 but has not repurchased any shares of its Class C common stock since first quarter 2020. Farmer Mac's current repurchase program authorizes up to $9.8 million in repurchases of its Class C common stock. The IRA's excise tax on stock repurchases will apply to the extent Farmer Mac buys back any shares of Class C common stock after December 31, 2022.

•~~The Farm Credit Administration ("FCA")~~In the FCA's proposed 2023 regulatory agenda, the agency is targeting a proposed rulemaking on Farmer Mac's regulatory capital framework for May 2024.

On September 29, 2022, the U.S. Senate confirmed Vincent Logan to be a member of the FCA board.

Risk Management

Credit Risk – Loans and Guarantees.

Agricultural Finance - Direct Credit Exposure

Farmer Mac's direct credit exposure to Agricultural Finance mortgage loans as of September 30, ~~2022~~2023 was ~~$10.1~~$11.0 billion across 48 states. Farmer Mac applies credit underwriting standards and methodologies to help assess exposures to loan purchases, which may include collateral valuation, financial metrics, and other appropriate borrower financial and credit information. For Corporate AgFinance loans, which are often larger loan exposures to agriculture production and agribusinesses that support agriculture production, food and fiber processing, and other supply chain production, and which may have risk profiles that differ from smaller agricultural mortgage loans, Farmer Mac has implemented methodologies and parameters that help assess credit risk based on the appropriate sector, borrower construct, and

transaction complexity. For more information about Farmer Mac's underwriting and collateral valuation standards for Agricultural Finance mortgage loans, see "Business—Farmer Mac's Lines of Business—Agricultural Finance—Underwriting and Collateral Standards—Farm & Ranch" and "Business—Farmer Mac's Lines of Business—Agricultural Finance—Underwriting and Collateral Standards—Corporate AgFinance" in Farmer Mac's ~~2021~~2022 Annual Report.

Farmer Mac's 90-day delinquency measure includes loans 90 days or more past due, as well as loans in foreclosure and non-performing loans where the borrower is in bankruptcy. For Agricultural Finance mortgage loans to which Farmer Mac has direct credit exposure, Farmer Mac's 90-day delinquencies as of September 30, ~~2022,~~2023, were ~~$44.2~~$42.4 million ~~(0.42%~~(0.39% of the Agricultural Finance mortgage loan portfolio to which Farmer Mac has direct credit exposure), compared to ~~$20.6~~$45.4 million ~~(0.20%~~(0.42% of the Agricultural Finance mortgage loan portfolio) as of June 30, ~~2022~~2023 and ~~$47.3~~$43.5 million ~~(0.48%~~(0.41% of the Agricultural Finance mortgage loan portfolio) as of December 31, ~~2021.~~2022. Those 90-day delinquencies ~~were comprised~~consisted of 3123 delinquent loans as of September 30, ~~2022,~~2023, compared to 1942 delinquent loans as of June 30, ~~2022~~2023 and 3237 delinquent loans as of December 31, ~~2021.~~2022. The ~~increase~~decrease in the number of 90-day delinquencies was primarily driven by decreased delinquencies in storage and processing, livestock, and part-time farms and was partially offset by increased delinquencies in ~~crops,~~ permanent plantings ~~livestock,~~ and ~~part-time farms.~~crops. The top ten borrower exposures over 90 days delinquent represented over half of the 90-day delinquencies as of September 30, ~~2022.~~2023. Farmer Mac believes that it remains adequately collateralized on its delinquent loans.

Farmer Mac's 90-day delinquency rate as of September 30, ~~2022~~2023 was below Farmer Mac's historical average. In the near-term, our delinquency rate may exceed our historical average due to changes in the ~~impact of~~agricultural or general economy or unforeseen and idiosyncratic events like adverse weather ~~events and/or supply chain disruptions on the agricultural economy.~~events. Farmer Mac's average 90-day delinquency rate as a percentage of its Agricultural Finance mortgage loan portfolio over the last 15 years is approximately 1%. The highest 90-day delinquency rate observed during that period occurred in 2009 at approximately 2%, which coincided with increased delinquencies in loans within Farmer Mac's ethanol loan portfolio.

The following table presents historical information about Farmer Mac's 90-day delinquencies in the Agricultural Finance mortgage loan portfolio compared to the unpaid principal balance of all Agricultural Finance mortgage loans to which Farmer Mac has direct credit exposure:

(4)Includes aggregated loans to single borrowers or borrower-related entities.

Another indicator that Farmer Mac considers in analyzing the credit quality of its Agricultural Finance mortgage loans is the level of internally-rated "substandard" assets, both in dollars and as a percentage of the outstanding portfolio. Assets categorized as "substandard" have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses, and there is a distinct possibility that some loss will be sustained if deficiencies are not corrected. As of September 30, ~~2022,~~2023, Farmer Mac's Agricultural Finance mortgage loans (to which it has direct credit exposure) comprising substandard assets were ~~$206.9~~$180.2 million ~~(2.0%~~(1.6% of the portfolio), compared to ~~$213.7~~$194.6 million ~~(2.1%~~(1.8% of the portfolio) as of June 30, ~~2022~~2023, and ~~$246.7~~$209.4 million ~~(2.5%~~(2.0% of the portfolio) as of December 31, ~~2021.~~2022. Those substandard assets comprised ~~251~~210 loans as of September 30, ~~2022, 249~~2023, 239 loans as of June 30, ~~2022,~~2023, and ~~274~~243 loans as of December 31, ~~2021.~~2022.

The decrease of ~~$6.8~~$14.4 million in Agricultural Finance substandard assets during third quarter ~~2022~~2023 was primarily driven by ~~credit upgrades in our off-balance sheet portfolio, partially offset by credit downgrades~~a substandard loan payoff in our on-balance sheet ~~portfolio. Substandard assets remained constant as a percentage of the total on-balance sheet portfolio due to volume growth being offset by credit downgrades. Substandard~~portfolios. Agricultural Finance substandard assets decreased as a percentage of ~~the total~~both our on-balance sheet and our off-balance sheet ~~portfolio due to a combination of credit upgrades and volume growth.~~Agricultural Finance portfolios during third quarter 2023.

The percentage of Agricultural Finance substandard assets within the portfolio as of September 30, ~~2022~~2023 was below the historical average. Farmer Mac's average Agricultural Finance substandard assets as a percentage of its Agricultural Finance mortgage loans over the last 15 years is approximately 4%. The highest substandard asset rate observed during the last 15 years occurred in 2010 at approximately 8%, which coincided with an increase in substandard loans within Farmer Mac's ethanol portfolio. If Farmer Mac's substandard asset rate increases from current levels, it is likely that Farmer Mac's provision to the allowance for loan losses and the reserve for losses will also increase.

Although some credit losses are inherent to the business of agricultural lending, Farmer Mac believes that losses associated with the current agricultural credit cycle will be moderated by the strength and diversity of its Agricultural Finance portfolio, which Farmer Mac believes is adequately collateralized.

Within Agricultural Finance, Farmer Mac considers a Farm & Ranch loan's original loan-to-value ratio as one of many factors in evaluating loss severity. Loan-to-value ratios depend on the market value of a property, as determined in accordance with Farmer Mac's collateral valuation standards. As of September 30, ~~2022~~2023 and December 31, ~~2021,~~2022, the average unpaid principal balances for ~~Agricultural Finance mortgage~~Farm & Ranch loans outstanding and to which Farmer Mac has direct credit exposure was ~~$804,000~~$800,000 and ~~$790,000,~~$806,000, respectively. Farmer Mac calculates the "original loan-to-value" ratio of a loan by dividing the original loan principal balance by the original appraised property value. This calculation does not reflect any amortization of the original loan balance or any adjustment to the original appraised value to provide a current market value. The original loan-to-value ratio of any cross-collateralized loans is calculated on a combined basis rather than on a loan-by-loan basis. The weighted-average original loan-to-value ratio for ~~Agricultural Finance~~Farm & Ranch mortgage loans purchased during third quarter ~~2022~~2023 was ~~37%~~49%, compared to ~~51%~~47% for loans purchased during third quarter ~~2021.~~2022. The weighted-average original loan-to-value ratio for ~~Agricultural Finance~~Farm & Ranch mortgage loans and loans underlying off-balance sheet ~~Agricultural Finance~~Farmer Mac Guaranteed Securities and LTSPCs was ~~51%~~50% and ~~52%~~51% as of September 30, ~~2022~~2023 and December 31, ~~2021,~~2022, respectively. The weighted-average original loan-to-value ratio for all 90-day delinquencies was ~~55%~~54% and ~~51%~~46% as of September 30, ~~2022~~2023 and December 31, ~~2021,~~2022, respectively.

The weighted-average current loan-to-value ratio (the loan to-value ratio based on original appraised value and current outstanding loan amount adjusted to reflect amortization) for Agricultural Finance mortgage

loans and loans underlying off-balance sheet ~~Agricultural Finance~~Farmer Mac Guaranteed Securities and LTSPCs was ~~46%~~45% and ~~47%~~46% as of September 30, ~~2022~~2023 and December 31, ~~2021,~~2022, respectively.

The following table presents the current loan-to-value ratios for the Agricultural Finance mortgage loans to which Farmer Mac has direct credit exposure, as disaggregated by internally assigned risk ratings:

Other Considerations Regarding Credit Risk Related to Loans and Guarantees

The credit exposure on USDA Securities, including those underlying Farmer Mac Guaranteed USDA Securities, is guaranteed by the full faith and credit of the United States. Therefore, Farmer Mac believes that we have little or no credit risk exposure to the USDA Securities in the Agricultural Finance line of business because of the USDA guarantee. As of September 30, ~~2022,~~2023, Farmer Mac had not experienced any credit losses on any USDA Securities or Farmer Mac Guaranteed USDA Securities and does not expect to incur any such losses in the future. Because we do not expect credit losses on this portfolio, Farmer Mac does not provide an allowance for losses on its portfolio of USDA Securities.

Farmer Mac requires many lenders to make representations and warranties about the conformity of Agricultural Finance mortgage ~~loans and Rural Infrastructure Finance~~ loans to Farmer Mac's standards, the accuracy of loan data provided to Farmer Mac, and other requirements related to the loans. Sellers who make these representations and warranties are responsible to Farmer Mac for breaches of those representations and warranties. Farmer Mac has the ability to require a seller to cure, replace, or repurchase a loan sold or transferred to Farmer Mac if any breach of a representation or warranty is discovered that was material to Farmer Mac's decision to purchase the loan or that directly or indirectly causes a default or potential loss on a loan sold or transferred by the seller to Farmer Mac. During the previous three years ended September 30, ~~2022,~~2023, there have been no breaches of representations and warranties by sellers that resulted in Farmer Mac requiring a seller to cure, replace, or repurchase a loan. In addition to relying on the representations and warranties of sellers, Farmer Mac also underwrites the Agricultural Finance mortgage loans (other than rural housing and part-time farm mortgage loans) and Rural Infrastructure Finance loans on which it has direct credit exposure. For rural housing and part-time farm mortgage loans, Farmer Mac relies on representations and warranties from the seller that those loans conform to Farmer Mac's specified underwriting criteria. For more information about Farmer Mac's loan eligibility requirements and underwriting standards, see "Business—Farmer Mac's Lines of Business—Agricultural Finance—Loan Eligibility," "Business—Farmer Mac's Lines of Business—Agricultural Finance—Underwriting and Collateral Standards—Farm & Ranch," "Business—Farmer Mac's Lines of Business—Agricultural Finance—Underwriting and Collateral Standards—Corporate AgFinance," and "Business—Farmer Mac's Lines of Business—Rural Infrastructure Finance—Underwriting and Collateral Standards" in Farmer Mac’s ~~2021~~2022 Annual Report.

Under contracts with Farmer Mac and in consideration for servicing fees, Farmer Mac-approved servicers service loans in accordance with Farmer Mac's requirements. Servicers are responsible to Farmer Mac for ~~serious~~material errors in the servicing of those loans. If a servicer materially breaches the terms of its servicing

~~104~~102

agreement with Farmer Mac, such as failing to forward payments received or releasing collateral without Farmer Mac's consent, or experiences insolvency or bankruptcy, the servicer is responsible for any corresponding damages to Farmer Mac and, in most cases, Farmer Mac has the right to terminate the servicing relationship for a particular loan or the entire portfolio serviced by the servicer. Farmer Mac also can proceed against the servicer in arbitration or exercise any remedies available to it under law. During the previous three years ended September 30, ~~2022,~~2023, Farmer Mac had not exercised any remedies or taken any formal action against any servicers. For more information about Farmer Mac's servicing requirements, see "Business—Farmer Mac's Lines of Business—Agricultural Finance—Loan Servicing" and "Business—Farmer Mac's Lines of Business—Rural Infrastructure Finance—Lenders and Loan Servicing" in Farmer Mac’s ~~2021~~2022 Annual Report.

Credit Risk – Counterparty Risk. Farmer Mac is exposed to credit risk arising from its business relationships with other institutions, which include:

•issuers of AgVantage securities;

•approved lenders and servicers; and

•interest rate swap counterparties.

Farmer Mac approves AgVantage counterparties and manages institutional credit risk related to those AgVantage counterparties by requiring them to meet Farmer Mac's standards for creditworthiness for the particular counterparty type and transaction. The required collateralization level is established when the AgVantage facility is entered into with the counterparty and does not change during the life of the AgVantage securities issued under the facility without Farmer Mac's consent. In AgVantage transactions, the corporate obligor is typically required to remove from the pool of pledged collateral loans that become and remain (within specified parameters) delinquent in the payment of principal or interest and to substitute eligible loans that are current in payment or pay down the AgVantage securities to maintain the minimum required collateralization level.

In the event of a default on an AgVantage security, Farmer Mac would have recourse to the pledged collateral and have rights to the ongoing borrower payments of principal and interest. As a result, Farmer Mac has indirect credit exposure to the Agricultural Finance mortgage loans and Rural ~~Utilities~~Infrastructure loans that secure AgVantage securities. For AgVantage counterparties that are institutional real estate investors or financial funds and other similar entities, Farmer Mac also typically requires that the counterparty (1) maintain a higher collateralization level, through either a higher overcollateralization percentage or lower loan-to-value ratio thresholds and (2) comply with specified financial covenants for the life of the related AgVantage security to avoid default. As of September 30, ~~2022,~~2023, Farmer Mac had not experienced any credit losses on any AgVantage securities. For a more detailed description of AgVantage securities, see "Business—Farmer Mac's Lines of Business—Agricultural Finance—Other Products – Agricultural Finance—AgVantage Securities" and "Business—Farmer Mac's Lines of Business—Rural Infrastructure Finance—Other Products – Rural Infrastructure Finance—AgVantage Securities" in Farmer ~~Mac's 2021~~Mac’s 2022 Annual Report.

~~105~~103

The unpaid principal balance of outstanding on-balance sheet AgVantage securities secured by loans eligible for the Agricultural Finance line of business totaled ~~$5.7~~$6.1 billion as of September 30, ~~2022~~2023 and ~~$5.1~~$6.0 billion as of December 31, ~~2021.~~2022. The unpaid principal balance of on-balance sheet AgVantage securities secured by loans eligible for the Rural Infrastructure Finance line of business totaled ~~$3.1~~$3.6 billion as of September 30, ~~2022~~2023 and $3.0 billion as of December 31, ~~2021.~~2022. The unpaid principal balance of outstanding off-balance sheet AgVantage securities totaled ~~$2.8~~$1.1 million as of ~~both~~ September 30, ~~2022~~2023 and $1.2 million as of December 31, ~~2021.~~2022.

Farmer Mac manages institutional credit risk related to lenders and servicers by requiring those institutions to meet Farmer Mac's standards for creditworthiness. Farmer Mac monitors the financial condition of those institutions by evaluating financial statements and credit rating agency reports. For more information about Farmer Mac's lender eligibility requirements, see "Business—Farmer Mac's Lines of Business—Agricultural Finance—Lenders" and "Business—Farmer Mac's Lines of Business—Rural Infrastructure Finance—Lenders and Loan Servicing" in Farmer Mac’s ~~2021~~2022 Annual Report.

Farmer Mac manages institutional credit risk related to its interest rate swap counterparties through collateralization provisions contained in each of its swap agreements that vary based on the market value of its swap portfolio with each counterparty. Farmer Mac and its interest rate swap counterparties are required to fully collateralize their derivatives positions without any minimum threshold for cleared swap transactions, as well as for non-cleared swap transactions entered into after March 1, 2017. Farmer Mac transacts interest rate swaps with multiple counterparties to reduce counterparty credit exposure concentration. Farmer Mac's usage of cleared derivatives has increased over time as has its exposure to clearinghouses. The usage of cleared swap transactions reduces Farmer Mac's exposure to individual counterparties with the central clearinghouse acting to settle the change in value of contracts on a daily basis. Credit risk related to interest rate swap contracts is discussed in "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Risk Management—Interest Rate Risk" and Note 4 to the consolidated financial statements.

Credit Risk – Other Investments. As of September 30, ~~2022,~~2023, Farmer Mac had ~~$0.9~~$0.8 billion of cash and cash equivalents and ~~$4.4~~$4.9 billion of investment securities. The management of the credit risk inherent in these investments is governed by Farmer Mac's internal policies as well as regulations issued by the FCA ~~regulations~~ found at 12 C.F.R. §§ 652.1-652.45 ~~(the "Liquidity~~("Liquidity and Investment Regulations"). In addition to establishing a portfolio of highly liquid investments as an available source of cash, the goals of Farmer Mac's investment

~~106~~104

policies are designed to minimize Farmer Mac's exposure to financial market volatility, preserve capital, and support Farmer Mac's access to the debt markets.

The Liquidity and Investment Regulations and Farmer Mac's internal policies require that investments held in Farmer Mac's investment portfolio meet the following creditworthiness standards: (1) at a minimum, at least one obligor of the investment must have a very strong capacity to meet financial commitments for the life of the investment, even under severely adverse or stressful conditions, and generally present a very low risk of default; (2) if the obligor whose capacity to meet financial commitments is being relied upon to meet the standard set forth in subparagraph (1) is located outside of the United States, the investment must also be fully guaranteed by a U.S. government agency; and (3) the investment must exhibit low credit risk and other risk characteristics consistent with the purpose or purposes for which it is held.

The Liquidity and Investment Regulations and Farmer Mac's internal policies also establish concentration limits, which are intended to limit exposure to any single entity, issuer, or obligor. The Liquidity and Investment Regulations limit Farmer Mac's total credit exposure to any single entity, issuer, or obligor of securities to 10% of Farmer Mac's regulatory capital ($~~131.1~~144.0 million as of September 30, ~~2022)~~2023). However, Farmer Mac's current policy limits this total credit exposure to 5% of its regulatory capital ($~~65.5~~72.0 million as of September 30, ~~2022)~~2023). These exposure limits do not apply to obligations of U.S. government agencies or GSEs, although Farmer Mac's current policy restricts investing more than 100% of regulatory capital in the senior non-convertible debt securities of any one GSE.

Although the Liquidity and Investments Regulations do not establish limits on the maximum amount, expressed as a percentage of Farmer Mac's investment portfolio, that can be invested in each eligible asset class, Farmer Mac's internal policies set forth asset class limits as part of Farmer Mac's overall risk management framework.

Interest Rate Risk. Farmer Mac is subject to interest rate risk on all interest-earning assets on its balance sheet because of timing differences in the cash flows due to maturity, paydown, or repricing of the assets and debt together with financial derivatives. Cash flow mismatches due to changing interest rates can reduce the earnings of Farmer Mac if assets prepay sooner than expected and the resulting cash flows must be reinvested in lower-yielding investments when Farmer Mac's funding costs cannot be correspondingly reduced. Alternatively, Farmer Mac could realize a decline in income if assets repay more slowly than originally forecasted and the associated maturing debt must be replaced by debt issuances at higher interest rates.

Interest Rate Risk Management

The goal of interest rate risk management at Farmer Mac is to manage the balance sheet in a manner that generates stable earnings and value across a variety of interest rate environments. Recognizing that interest rate sensitivities may change with the passage of time and as interest rates change, Farmer Mac regularly assesses this exposure and, if necessary, adjusts its portfolio of interest-earning assets, debt, and financial derivatives.

Farmer Mac's objective is to maintain its exposure to interest rate risk within appropriate limits, as approved by Farmer Mac's board of directors. Farmer Mac's management-level Asset and Liability Committee ("ALCO") provides oversight, establishes guidelines, and approves strategies to maintain interest rate risk within the board-established limits.

~~107~~105

Farmer Mac's primary strategy for managing interest rate risk is to fund asset purchases with debt that together with financial derivatives have similar duration and convexity characteristics and help mitigate impacts from interest rate changes across the yield curve. As part of this strategy, Farmer Mac seeks to issue debt securities across a variety of maturities that together with financial derivatives closely align the forecasted debt and financial derivative cash flows with forecasted asset cash flows.

Farmer Mac issues discount notes and both callable and non-callable medium-term notes across a spectrum of maturities to execute its debt issuance strategy. Portions of Farmer Mac's callable debt is issued to mitigate prepayment risk associated with certain interest-earning assets held on balance sheet. In general, as interest rates decline, prepayments typically increase, and Farmer Mac is able to economically extinguish certain callable debt issuances. In addition, Farmer Mac enters into financial derivatives, primarily interest rate swaps, to better match the durations of Farmer Mac's assets and liabilities, thereby reducing overall sensitivity to changing interest rates.

Taking into consideration the prepayment provisions and the default probabilities associated with its portfolio of interest-earning assets, Farmer Mac incorporates behavioral models when projecting and valuing cash flows associated with these assets. In recognition that borrowers' behaviors in various interest rate environments may change over time, Farmer Mac periodically evaluates the effectiveness of these models compared to actual prepayment experience and adjusts and refines the models as necessary to improve the precision of future prepayment forecasts.

Changes in interest rates may affect the timing of asset prepayments which may, in turn, impact durations and values of the assets. Declining interest rates generally result in increased prepayments, which shortens the duration of these assets, while rising interest rates generally result in lower prepayments, thereby extending the duration of the assets.

Farmer Mac is subject to interest rate risk on loans and securities it has committed to acquire but not yet purchased (other than delinquent loans purchased through LTSPCs or loans designated for securitization under a forward purchase agreement). When Farmer Mac commits to purchase these assets, it is exposed to interest rate risk between the time it commits to purchase the loans and the time it issues debt to fund the purchase of these loans. Farmer Mac manages the interest rate risk exposure related to these loans by entering into exchange-traded futures contracts involving U.S. Treasury securities and other financial derivatives. Similarly, when Farmer Mac commits to sell certain assets, the associated interest rate exposure is primarily managed with exchange-traded futures contracts involving U.S. Treasury securities and other financial derivatives.

Farmer Mac's ~~$0.9~~$0.8 billion of cash and cash equivalents held as of September 30, ~~2022~~2023 mature within three months. As of September 30, ~~2022, $3.3~~2023, $3.1 billion of the ~~$4.4~~$4.9 billion of investment securities ~~(75%~~(63%) were floating rate securities with rates that adjust within one year or fixed rate securities with original maturities between three months and one year. Farmer Mac's floating rate investment securities are funded with floating rate debt. The fixed rate investment securities are generally funded in a manner consistent with Farmer Mac's overall funding strategy that approximates a duration and convexity match.

~~108~~106

Interest Rate Risk Metrics

Farmer Mac regularly evaluates and conducts interest rate shock simulations on its portfolio of financial assets, debt, and financial derivatives and examines a variety of metrics to quantify and manage its exposure to interest rate risk. These metrics include sensitivity to interest rate movements on the market value of equity ("MVE") and forecasted net effective spread ("NES") as well as a duration gap analysis.

MVE represents management's estimate of the present value of all future cash flows from its current portfolio of on- and off-balance sheet assets, liabilities, and financial derivatives, discounted at current interest rates and appropriate spreads. However, MVE is not indicative of the market value of Farmer Mac as a going concern because these market values are theoretical and do not reflect future business activities. The MVE sensitivity analysis measures the degree to which the market values of Farmer Mac's assets, liabilities, and financial derivatives are estimated to change for a given change in interest rates.

Farmer Mac's NES simulation represents the difference between projected income over the next twelve months from the current portfolio of interest-earning assets and interest expense produced by the related funding, including associated financial derivatives. Farmer Mac's NES simulation may be impacted by changes in market interest rates resulting from timing differences between maturities and re-pricing characteristics of funded assets and debt together with the associated financial derivatives. The direction and magnitude of any such effect depends on the direction and magnitude of the change in interest rates across the yield curve as well as the composition of Farmer Mac's portfolio. The NES simulation represents an estimate of the net effective spread income that Farmer Mac's current portfolio is expected to produce over a twelve-month horizon. As a result, the NES simulation sensitivity statistics provide a short-term view of Farmer Mac's NES income sensitivity to interest rate shocks.

Duration is a measure of a financial instrument's fair value sensitivity to small changes in interest rates. Duration gap is calculated using the net estimated durations of Farmer Mac's interest-earning assets, debt, and financial derivatives. Duration gap quantifies the extent to which estimated fair value sensitivities are matched for interest-earning assets, debt and financial derivatives. Duration gap provides a relatively concise measure of the interest rate risk inherent in Farmer Mac's outstanding portfolio.

A positive duration gap denotes that the duration of Farmer Mac's interest-earning assets is greater than the duration of its debt and financial derivatives. A positive duration gap indicates that with small changes in interest rate movements the fair value change of Farmer Mac's interest-earning assets is more sensitive than the fair value change of its debt and financial derivatives. Conversely, a negative duration gap indicates that with small changes in interest rate movements the fair value change of Farmer Mac's interest-earning assets are less sensitive than the fair value change of its debt and financial derivatives. A duration gap of zero indicates that with small changes in interest rate movements the fair value change of Farmer Mac's interest-earning assets is effectively offset by the fair value change of its debt and financial derivatives.

Each of the interest rate risk metrics is quantified using asset/liability models and derived based on management's best estimates of factors such as implied forward interest rates across the yield curve, interest rate volatility, and timing of asset prepayments and callable debt redemptions. Accordingly, these metrics are estimates rather than precise measurements. Actual results may differ to the extent there are material changes to Farmer Mac's financial asset portfolio or changes in funding or hedging strategies undertaken to mitigate unfavorable sensitivities to interest rate changes.

~~109~~107

The following schedule summarizes the results of Farmer Mac's MVE and NES sensitivity analysis as of September 30, ~~2022~~2023 and December 31, ~~2021~~2022 to an immediate and instantaneous uniform or "parallel" shift in the yield curve:

This rate movement contributed to ~~extending~~lengthening the duration of Farmer Mac's funded assets compared to its debt and financial derivatives, thereby ~~lengthening~~widening Farmer Mac's duration gap.

Financial Derivatives Transactions

The economic effects of financial derivatives are included in Farmer Mac's MVE, NES, and duration gap analyses. Farmer Mac typically enters into the following types of financial derivative transactions principally to protect against risk from the effects of market price or interest rate movements on the value of interest-earning assets, future cash flows, and debt issuance, and not for trading or speculative purposes:

•"pay-fixed" interest rate swaps, in which Farmer Mac pays fixed rates of interest to, and receives floating rates of interest from, counterparties;

•"receive-fixed" interest rate swaps, in which Farmer Mac receives fixed rates of interest from, and pays floating rates of interest to, counterparties;

•"basis swaps," in which Farmer Mac pays floating rates of interest based on one index to, and receives floating rates of interest based on a different index from, counterparties; and

•exchange-traded futures contracts involving U.S. Treasury securities.

As of September 30, ~~2022,~~2023, Farmer Mac had ~~$22.4~~$24.5 billion combined notional amount of interest rate swaps, with terms ranging from less than one year to just over thirty years, of which ~~$8.7~~$9.6 billion were pay-fixed interest rate swaps, ~~$11.9~~$14.0 billion were receive-fixed interest rate swaps, and ~~$1.8~~$0.9 billion were basis swaps.

Farmer Mac enters into interest rate swaps to more closely match the cash flow and duration characteristics of its interest-earning assets with those of its debt. For example, Farmer Mac transacts pay-fixed interest rate swaps and issues floating rate debt to effectively create fixed rate funding that

~~110~~

approximately matches the duration of the corresponding fixed rate assets being funded. Farmer Mac evaluates the overall cost of using interest rate swaps in conjunction with debt issuance as a funding

108

alternative to duration-matched debt and enters into interest rate swaps to manage interest rate risks across the balance sheet.

Certain financial derivatives are designated as fair value hedges of fixed rate assets classified as available for sale or liabilities to protect against fair value changes in the assets or liabilities related to a benchmark interest rate (e.g.~~, LIBOR or Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”))~~ SOFR). Also, certain financial derivatives are designated as cash flow hedges to mitigate the volatility of future interest rate payments on floating rate debt.

As discussed in Note 4 to the consolidated financial statements, all financial derivatives are recorded on the balance sheet at fair value as derivative assets or as derivative liabilities. Changes in the fair values of undesignated financial derivatives are reported in ~~"Gains/(losses)~~"Gains on financial derivatives" in the consolidated statements of operations. For financial derivatives designated in fair value hedge accounting relationships, changes in the fair values of the hedged items related to the risk being hedged are reported in "Net interest income" in the consolidated statements of operations. Interest accruals on derivatives designated in fair value hedge accounting relationships are also recorded in "Net interest income" in the consolidated statements of operations. For financial derivatives designated in cash flow hedge accounting relationships, the unrealized gain or loss on the derivative is recorded in other comprehensive income. Because the hedging instrument is an interest rate swap and the hedged forecasted transactions are future interest payments on floating rate debt, amounts recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income are reclassified to "Total interest expense" in conjunction with the recognition of interest expense on the debt. All of Farmer Mac's interest rate swap transactions are conducted under standard collateralized agreements that limit Farmer Mac's potential credit exposure to any counterparty. As of both September 30, ~~2022~~2023 and December 31, ~~2021,~~2022, Farmer Mac had no uncollateralized net exposures based on the mark-to-market value of the portfolio of interest rate ~~swaps~~swaps.

Re-funding and repricing risk

Farmer Mac is subject to re-funding and repricing risk on any floating rate assets that are not funded to contractual maturity. Re-funding and repricing risk arises from potential changes in funding costs resulting from a funding strategy whereby Farmer Mac issues floating rate debt across a variety of maturities to fund floating rate or synthetically floating rate assets that on average may have longer maturities. Changes in Farmer Mac's funding costs relative to the benchmark market index rate to which the assets are indexed can cause changes to net interest income when debt matures and is reissued at then current interest rates to continue funding those assets.

Farmer Mac is subject to re-funding and repricing risk on a portion of its fixed rate assets as a result of its use of pay-fixed receive-floating interest rate swaps that effectively convert the required funding needed from fixed rate to floating rate. These fixed rate assets are then effectively floating rate assets that require floating rate funding.

Farmer Mac can meet floating rate funding needs in several ways, including:

•issuing short-term fixed rate discount notes with maturities that match the reset period of the assets;

~~111~~

•issuing floating rate medium-term notes with maturities and reset frequencies that match the assets being funded;

•issuing non-maturity matched, floating rate medium-term notes with reset frequencies that match the assets being funded; or

109

•issuing non-maturity matched, fixed rate discount notes or medium-term notes swapped to floating rate to match the interest rate reset dates of the assets.

To meet certain floating rate funding needs, Farmer Mac frequently issues shorter-term floating-rate medium-term notes or fixed rate medium-term notes paired with a received-fixed interest rate swap because these funding alternatives generally provide a lower cost of funding while generating an effective interest rate match. As funding for these floating rate assets matures, Farmer Mac seeks to refinance the debt associated with these assets in a similar fashion to achieve an appropriate interest rate match in the context of Farmer Mac's overall debt issuance and liquidity management strategies.

However, if the funding cost of Farmer Mac’s discount notes or medium-term notes increased relative to the benchmark market index of the associated assets during the time between when these floating rate assets were first funded and when Farmer Mac refinanced the associated debt, Farmer Mac would be exposed to a commensurate reduction of net effective spread. Conversely, if the funding cost on Farmer Mac’s discount notes or medium-term notes decreased relative to the benchmark market index during that time, Farmer Mac would benefit from a commensurate increase to net effective spread.

Farmer Mac's debt issuance strategy targets balancing liquidity risk and re-funding and repricing risk while maintaining an appropriate liability management profile that is consistent with Farmer Mac's risk tolerance. Farmer Mac regularly adjusts its funding strategies to mitigate the effects of interest rate variability and seeks to maintain an effective mixture of funding structures in the context of its overall liability and liquidity management strategies.

As of September 30, ~~2022,~~2023, Farmer Mac held ~~$6.2~~$7.9 billion of floating rate assets in its lines of business and its investment portfolio that reset based on floating rate market indices, such as ~~LIBOR or~~ SOFR. As of the same date, Farmer Mac also had ~~$8.7~~$9.6 billion of interest rate swaps outstanding where Farmer Mac pays a fixed rate of interest and receives a floating rate of interest, primarily ~~LIBOR or~~ SOFR.

Discontinuation of LIBOR

~~As described in "Risk Factors—Market Risk" in Part I, Item 1A of the 2021 Annual Report,~~ Farmer Mac ~~faces risks associated with the reform, replacement, or discontinuation of the LIBOR benchmark interest rate~~has not had, and ~~the transition to an alternative benchmark interest rate. Farmer Mac is evaluating the potential effect~~does not foresee, a material impact on our business ofdue to the replacement of ~~the~~ LIBOR ~~benchmark interest rate, including the possibility of replacement benchmark interest rates.~~

Aswith SOFR. We had no further variable LIBOR exposure as of September 30, 2022, Farmer Mac held $2.9 billion of floating rate assets in its lines of business and its investment portfolio, had issued $0.3 billion of floating rate debt, and had entered into $11.1 billion notional amount of interest rate swaps, each of which reset based on LIBOR. In addition, our Non-Cumulative Series C Preferred Stock currently pays a fixed rate of interest until July 17, 2024. It becomes redeemable at our option on July 18, 2024 and thereafter pays interest at a floating rate equal to three-month LIBOR plus 3.260%.

~~112~~

The market transition away from LIBOR and towards alternative benchmark interest rate indices that may be developed is expected to be complicated and may require the development of term and credit adjustments to accommodate for differences between the benchmark interest rate indices. The transition may also result in different financial performance for existing transactions, require different hedging strategies, or require renegotiation of existing transactions. As of September 30, 2022, we had $1.2 billion outstanding in medium-term notes based on SOFR, a potential alternative benchmark interest rate index.2023.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Farmer Mac's primary sources of funds to meet its liquidity and funding needs are the proceeds of its debt issuances, guarantee and commitment fees, net effective spread, loan repayments, and ~~maturities~~repayments of AgVantage and investment securities. Farmer Mac regularly accesses the debt capital markets for funding, and Farmer Mac has maintained steady access to the debt capital markets throughout ~~third quarter 2022.~~2023. Farmer Mac funds its purchases of eligible loan assets, USDA Securities, Farmer Mac Guaranteed Securities, and investment assets and finances its operations primarily by issuing debt obligations of various maturities in the debt capital markets. As of September 30, ~~2022,~~2023, Farmer Mac had outstanding discount notes of ~~$0.9~~$1.5 billion, medium-term notes that mature within one year of ~~$6.5~~$6.4 billion, and medium-term notes that mature after one year of ~~$16.7~~$17.6 billion.

Assuming continued access to the debt capital markets, Farmer Mac believes it has sufficient liquidity and capital resources to support its operations for the next 12 months and for the foreseeable future. Farmer Mac has a contingency funding plan to manage unanticipated disruptions in its access to the debt capital markets. Farmer Mac must maintain a minimum of 90 days of liquidity under the Liquidity and
