NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
1.           BASIS OF PRESENTATION


The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“generally accepted accounting principles” or “GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of actual results achieved for full fiscal years. The consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 20162023 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date but does not include all the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 20162023 for Credit Acceptance Corporation (the “Company”, “Credit Acceptance”, “we”, “our” or “us”).


The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.


We have evaluated events and transactions occurring subsequent to the consolidated balance sheet date of September 30, 2017March 31, 2024 for items that could potentially be recognized or disclosed in these financial statements. For additional information regarding subsequent events, see Note 16 of theseWe did not identify any items that would require disclosure in or adjustment to the consolidated financial statements.


Reclassification


Certain amounts for prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation. We have reclassified certain prior period related party transactions to reflect the June 2016 sale of certain affiliated Dealers by our founder, significant shareholder and former Chairman of the Board. For additional information regarding this change, see Note 10 to the consolidated financial statements.

2.           DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS


Since 1972, Credit Acceptance has offeredWe make vehicle ownership possible by providing innovative financing programssolutions that enable automobile dealers to sell vehicles to consumers regardless of their credit history. Our financing programs are offered through a nationwide network of automobile dealers who benefit from sales of vehicles to consumers who otherwise could not obtain financing; from repeat and referral sales generated by these same customers; and from sales to customers responding to advertisements for our financing programs, but who actually end up qualifying for traditional financing.


Without our financing programs, consumers are often unable to purchase vehicles or they purchase unreliable ones. Further, as we report to the three national credit reporting agencies, an important ancillary benefit of our programs is that we provide consumers with an opportunity to improve their lives by improving their credit score and move on to more traditional sources of financing.


We refer to automobile dealers who participate in our programs and who share our commitmentdesire to changing consumers’provide an opportunity to consumers to improve their lives as “Dealers”.“Dealers.” Upon enrollment in our financing programs, the Dealer enters into a Dealer servicing agreement with us that defines the legal relationship between Credit Acceptance and the Dealer. The Dealer servicing agreement assigns the responsibilities for administering, servicing, and collecting the amounts due on retail installment contracts (referred to as “Consumer Loans”) from the Dealers to us. We are an indirect lender from a legal perspective, meaning the Consumer Loan is originated by the Dealer and assigned to us.
Substantially all
The majority of the Consumer Loans assigned to us are made to consumers with impaired or limited credit histories. The following table shows the percentage of Consumer Loans assigned to us with either FICO® scores below 650 or no FICO® scores:

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – (CONTINUED)
(UNAUDITED)

In recent years, we have expanded our financing programs to consumers with higher credit ratings, which has contributed to the reduction in the percentage of total unit volume with either FICO® scores below 650 or no FICO® scores.

We have two programs: the Portfolio Program and the Purchase Program. Under the Portfolio Program, we advance money to Dealers (referred to as a “Dealer Loan”) in exchange for the right to service the underlying Consumer Loans. Under the Purchase Program, we buy the Consumer Loans from the Dealers (referred to as a “Purchased Loan”) and keep all amounts collected from the consumer. Dealer Loans and Purchased Loans are collectively referred to as “Loans”.“Loans.” The following table shows the percentage of Consumer Loans assigned to us as Dealer Loans and Purchased Loans for each of the last sevenfive quarters:

(1)Represents advances paid to Dealers on Consumer Loans assigned under our Portfolio Program and one-time payments made to Dealers to purchase Consumer Loans assigned under our Purchase Program.  Payments of Dealer Holdback and accelerated Dealer Holdback are not included.


Portfolio Program

As payment for the vehicle, the Dealer generally receives the following:
a down payment from the consumer;
a non-recourse cash payment (“advance”) from us; and
after the advance balance (cash advance and related Dealer Loan fees and costs) has been recovered by us, the cash from payments made on the Consumer Loan, net of certain collection costs and our servicing fee (“Dealer Holdback”).


We record the amount advanced to the Dealer as a Dealer Loan, which is classified within Loans receivable in our consolidated balance sheets. Cash advanced to the Dealer is automatically assigned to the Dealer’s open pool of advances. We generally require Dealers make an election as to group advances into pools of at least 100 Consumer Loans. At the Dealer’s option, a pool containing at least 100how many Consumer Loans can(either 50 or 100) will be assigned to an open pool before it is closed, and subsequent advances are assigned to a new pool. Unless we receive a request from the Dealer to keep a pool open, we automatically close each pool based on the Dealer’s election. All advances within a Dealer’s pool are secured by the future collections on the related Consumer Loans assigned to the pool. For Dealers with more than one pool, the pools are cross-collateralized so the performance of other pools is considered in determining eligibility for Dealer Holdback. We perfect our security interest inwith respect to the Dealer Loans by obtaining control or taking possession of the Consumer Loans, which list us as lien holder on the vehicle title.


The Dealer servicing agreement provides that collections received by us during a calendar month on Consumer Loans assigned by a Dealer are applied on a pool-by-pool basis as follows:
first, to reimburse us for certain collection costs;
second, to pay us our servicing fee, which generally equals 20% of collections;
third, to reduce the aggregate advance balance and to pay any other amounts due from the Dealer to us; and
fourth, to the Dealer as payment of Dealer Holdback.


If the collections on Consumer Loans from a Dealer’s pool are not sufficient to repay the advance balance and any other amounts due to us, the Dealer will not receive Dealer Holdback. Certain events may also result in Dealers forfeiting their rights to Dealer Holdback, including becoming inactive before assigning 100 Consumer Loans.

Since typically the combination of the advance and the consumer’s down payment provides the Dealer with a cash profit at the time of sale, the Dealer’s risk in the Consumer Loan is limited. We cannot demand repayment of the advance from the Dealer except in the event the Dealer is in default of the Dealer servicing agreement. Advances are made only after the consumer and Dealer have signed a Consumer Loan contract, we have received the executed Consumer Loan contract and supporting documentation in either physical or electronic form, and we have approved all of the related stipulations for funding. The Dealer can also opt to repurchase Consumer Loans that have been assigned to us under the Portfolio Program, at their discretion, for a fee.

For accounting purposes, the transactions described under the Portfolio Program are not considered to be loans to consumers. Instead, our accounting reflects that of a lender to the Dealer. The classification as a Dealer Loan for accounting purposes is primarily a result of (1) the Dealer’s financial interest in the Consumer Loan and (2) certain elements of our legal relationship with the Dealer.


Purchase Program


The Purchase Program differs from our Portfolio Program in that the Dealer receives a one-time payment from us at the time of assignment to purchase the Consumer Loan instead of a cash advance at the time of assignment and future Dealer Holdback payments. For accounting purposes, the transactions described under the Purchase Program are considered to be originated by the Dealer and then purchased by us.


Program Enrollment


Dealers may enroll inare granted access to our Portfolio Program by (1) paying an up-front, one-time fee of $9,850, or (2) agreeing to allow us to retain 50% of their first accelerated Dealer Holdback payment.upon enrollment. Access to the Purchase Program is typically only granted to Dealers that meet one of the following:


received first accelerated Dealer Holdback paymentassigned at least 50 Consumer Loans under the Portfolio Program;
franchise dealership; or
independent dealership that meets certain criteria upon enrollment.


Seasonality

Our business is seasonal with peak Consumer Loan assignments and collections occurring during the first quarter of the year.  This seasonality has a material impact on our interim results, as we are required to recognize a significant provision for credit losses expense at the time of assignment. For additional information, see Note 3.

Business Segment Information


We currently operate in one reportable segment which represents our core business of offering innovative financing programssolutions that enable Dealersautomobile dealers to sell vehicles to consumers regardless of their credit history. The consolidated financial statements reflect the financial results of our one reportable operating segment.


Cash and Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash and Cash Equivalents


Cash equivalents consist of readily marketable securities with original maturities at the date of acquisition of three months or less. As of September 30, 2017March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2016,2023, we had $4.6$8.1 million and $14.3$12.8 million, respectively, in cash and cash equivalents that were not insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”).

Restricted Cash and Cash Equivalents


Restricted cash and cash equivalents consist of cash pledged as collateral for secured financings and cash held in a trust for future vehicle service contract claims. As of September 30, 2017March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2016,2023, we had $273.1$554.7 million and $224.1$453.7 million, respectively, in restricted cash and cash equivalents that were not insured by the FDIC.

Loans Receivable and Allowance for Credit Losses


Consumer Loan Assignment. For legal purposes, a Consumer Loan is considered to have been assigned to us after the following has occurred:

the consumer and Dealer have signed a Consumer Loan contract; and
we have received the executed Consumer Loan contract and supporting documentation in either physical or electronic form.

For accounting and financial reporting purposes, a Consumer Loan is considered to have been assigned to us after the following has occurred:

the Consumer Loan has been legally assigned to us; and
we have made a funding decision and generally have provided funding to the Dealer in the form of either an advance under the Portfolio Program or one-time purchase payment under the Purchase Program.


Portfolio Segments and Classes. We are considered to be a lender to our Dealers for Consumer Loans assigned under our Portfolio Program and a purchaser of Consumer Loans assigned under our Purchase Program. As a result, ourOur Loan portfolio consists of two portfolio segments: Dealer Loans and Purchased Loans. Our determination is based on the following:
We have two financing programs: the Portfolio Program and the Purchase Program. We are considered to be a lender to Dealers for Consumer Loans assigned under the Portfolio Program and a purchaser of Consumer Loans assigned under the Purchase Program.
The Portfolio Program and the Purchase Program have different levels of risk in relation to credit losses. Under the Portfolio Program, the impact of negative variances in Consumer Loan performance is mitigated by Dealer Holdback and the cross-collateralization of Consumer Loan assignments. Under the Purchase Program, we are impacted by the full amount of negative variances in Consumer Loan performance.
Our business model is narrowly focused on Consumer Loan assignments from one industry with expected cash flows that are significantly lower than the contractual cash flows owed to us due to credit quality. We do not believe that it is meaningful to disaggregate our Loan portfolio beyond the Dealer Loans and Purchased Loans portfolio segments.

Each portfolio segment is comprisedconsists of one class of Consumer Loan assignments, which is Consumer Loans originated by Dealers to finance purchases of vehicles and related ancillary products by consumers with impaired or limited credit histories. Our determination is based on the following:

All of the Consumer Loans assigned to us have similar risk characteristics in relation to the categorization of borrowers, type of financing receivable, industry sector, and type of collateral.
We only accept Consumer Loan assignments from Dealers located within the United States.

Recognition and Measurement Policies. On January 1, 2020, we adopted Accounting Standards Update 2016-13, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which is known as the current expected credit loss model, or CECL. Loans outstanding prior to the adoption date qualified for transition relief and are accounted for as purchased financial assets with credit deterioration (“PCD Method”).

Under the PCD Method, for each reporting period subsequent to the adoption of CECL, we:
recognize finance charge revenue using the effective interest rate that was calculated on the adoption date based on expected future net cash flows; and
adjust the allowance for credit losses so that the net carrying amount of each Loan equals the present value of expected future net cash flows discounted at the effective interest rate. The adjustment to the allowance for credit losses is recognized as either provision for credit losses expense or a reversal of provision for credit losses expense.

Consumer Loans assigned to us on or subsequent to January 1, 2020 do not qualify for the PCD Method and are accounted for as originated financial assets (“Originated Method”). While the cash flows we expect to collect at the time of assignment are significantly lower than the contractual cash flows owed to us due to credit quality, our Loans do not qualify for the PCD Method because the assignment of the Consumer Loan to us occurs a moment after the Consumer Loan is originated by the Dealer, so “a more-than-insignificant deterioration in credit quality since origination” has not occurred at the time of assignment. In addition, Dealer Loans also do not qualify for the PCD Method because Consumer Loans assigned to us under the Portfolio Program are considered to be advances under Dealer Loans originated by us rather than Consumer Loans purchased by us.

Under the Originated Method, at the time of assignment, we:
calculate the effective interest rate based on contractual future net cash flows;
record a Loan receivable equal to the advance paid to the Dealer under the Portfolio Program or purchase price paid to the Dealer under the Purchase Program; and
record an allowance for credit losses equal to the difference between the initial Loan receivable balance and the present value of expected future net cash flows discounted at the effective interest rate. The initial allowance for credit losses is recognized as provision for credit losses expense.

The effective interest rate and initial allowance for credit losses are significantly higher for Consumer Loans assigned under the Purchase Program than for Consumer Loans assigned under the Portfolio Program, as contractual net cash flows exceed expected net cash flows by a significantly greater margin under the Purchase Program. Under the Purchase Program, we retain all contractual collections that exceed our initial expectations. Under the Portfolio Program, contractual collections that exceed our initial expectations are substantially offset by additional Dealer Holdback payments.

Under the Originated Method, for each reporting period subsequent to assignment, we:
recognize finance charge revenue using the effective interest rate that was calculated at the time of assignment based on contractual future net cash flows; and
adjust the allowance for credit losses so that the net carrying amount of each Loan equals the present value of expected future net cash flows discounted at the effective interest rate. The adjustment to the allowance for credit losses is recognized as either provision for credit losses expense or a reversal of provision for credit losses expense.

We aggregate these Purchased Loans by Dealer for purposes of recognizing revenue and measuring credit losses.

Futureexpected future collections on Dealer Loansthe assigned Consumer Loans.

Expected future collections are forecasted for each individual DealerConsumer Loan based on the historical performance of Consumer Loans with similar characteristics, adjusted for recent trends in payment patterns. Our forecast of expected future collections includes estimates for prepayments and post-contractual-term cash flows. Unless the consumer is no longer contractually obligated to pay us, we forecast future collections on each Consumer Loan for a 120 month period after the origination date. Expected future Dealer Holdback ispayments are forecasted for each individual Dealer based on the expected future collections and current advance balance of each Dealer Loan. Cash flows from any individual Dealer Loan are often different than estimated cash flows at the time of assignment. If such difference is favorable, the difference is recognized prospectively into income over the remaining life of the Dealer Loan through a yield adjustment. If such difference is unfavorable, a provision for credit losses is recorded immediately as a current period expense and a corresponding allowance for credit losses is established. Because differences between estimated cash flows at the time of assignment and actual cash flows occur often, an allowance is required for a significant portion of our Dealer Loan portfolio. An allowance for credit losses does not necessarily indicate that a Dealer Loan is unprofitable, and seldom are cash flows from a Dealer Loan insufficient to repay the initial amounts advanced to the Dealer.

Purchased Loans.  Amounts paid to Dealers for Consumer Loans assigned under the Purchase Program are recorded as Purchased Loans and are aggregated into pools based on the month of purchase for purposes of recognizing revenue and evaluating impairment. We account for Purchased Loans based on forecasted cash flows instead of contractual cash flows as we do not expect to collect all of the contractually specified amounts due to the credit quality of the assigned Consumer Loans.

AnWe fully write off the outstanding balances of a Loan and the related allowance for credit losses is maintained at an amount that reduces the net asset value (Purchased Loan pool balance less the allowance) to the value of forecasted future cash flows discounted at the yield established at the time of assignment. This allowance calculation is completed for each individual monthly pool of Purchased Loans. Future cash flows are comprised of estimated future collections on the pool of Purchased Loans. We write off pools of Purchased Loans once therewe are no forecastedlonger forecasting any expected future net cash flows on anythe Loan. Under our partial write-off policy, we write off the amount of the Purchased Loans included inoutstanding balances of a Loan and the pool, which generally occurs 120 months after the month of purchase.

Future collections on Purchased Loans are forecasted for each individual pool based on the historical performance of Consumer Loans with similar characteristics, adjusted for recent trends in payment patterns. Cash flows from any individual pool of Purchased Loans are often different than estimated cash flows at the time of assignment. If such difference is favorable, the difference is recognized prospectively into income over the remaining life of the pool of Purchased Loans through a yield adjustment. If such difference is unfavorable, a provision for credit losses is recorded immediately as a current period expense and a correspondingrelated allowance for credit losses, is established.if any, that exceeds 200% of the present value of expected future net cash flows on the Loan, as we deem this amount to be uncollectable.


Credit Quality. Substantially allThe vast majority of the Consumer Loans assigned to us are made to individuals with impaired or limited credit histories or higher debt-to-income ratios than are permitted by traditional lenders.histories. Consumer Loans made to these individuals generally entail a higher risk of delinquency, default, and repossession and higher losses than loans made to consumers with better credit. Since most of our revenue and cash flows are generated from these Consumer Loans, our ability to accurately forecast Consumer Loan performance is critical to our business and financial results. At the time thea Consumer Loan is submitted to us for assignment, we forecast future expected cash flows from the Consumer Loan. Based on these forecasts, an advance or one-time purchase payment is made to the related Dealer at a price designed to maximize our economic profit, a non-GAAP financial measure that considers our return on capital, our cost of capital, and the amount of capital invested.


We monitor and evaluate the credit quality of Consumer Loans on a monthly basis by comparing our current forecasted collection rates to our initial expectations. We use a statistical model that considers a number of credit quality indicators to estimate the expected collection rate for each Consumer Loan at the time of assignment. The credit quality indicators considered in our model include attributes contained in the consumer’s credit bureau report, data contained in the consumer’s credit application, the structure of the proposed transaction, vehicle information and other factors. We continue to evaluate the expected collection rate offor each Consumer Loan subsequent to assignment primarily through the monitoring of consumer payment behavior. Our evaluation becomes more accurate as the Consumer Loans age, as we use actual performance data in our forecast. Since all known, significant credit quality indicators have already been factored into our forecasts and pricing, we are not able to use any specific credit quality indicators to predict or explain variances in actual performance from our initial expectations. Any variances in performance from our initial expectations are thea result of Consumer Loans performing differently thanfrom historical Consumer Loans with similar characteristics. We periodically adjust our statistical pricing model for new trends that we identify through our evaluation of these forecasted collection rate variances.


When overall forecasted collection rates underperform our initial expectations, the decline in forecasted collections has a more adverse impact on the profitability of the Purchased Loans than on the profitability of the Dealer Loans. For Purchased Loans, the decline in forecasted collections is absorbed entirely by us. For Dealer Loans, the decline in the forecasted collections is substantially offset by a decline in forecasted payments of Dealer Holdback.


Methodology Changes. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017March 31, 2024 and 2016,2023, we did not make any methodology changes for Loans that had a material impact on our financial statements.



Finance Charges

Sources of Revenue. Finance charges is comprised of: (1) interest income earned on Loans; (2) administrative fees earned from ancillary products; (3) program fees charged to Dealers under the Portfolio Program; (4) Consumer Loan assignment fees charged to Dealers; and (5) direct origination costs incurred on Dealer Loans.

We provide Dealers the ability to offer vehicle service contracts to consumers through our relationships with Third-Party Providers (“TPPs”). A vehicle service contract provides the consumer protection by paying for the repair or replacement of certain components of the vehicle in the event of a mechanical failure. The retail price of the vehicle service contract is included in the principal balance of the Consumer Loan. The wholesale cost of the vehicle service contract is paid to the TPP, net of an administrative fee retained by us. The difference between the wholesale cost and the retail price to the consumer is paid to the Dealer as a commission. Under the Portfolio Program, the wholesale cost of the vehicle service contract and the commission paid to the Dealer are charged to the Dealer’s advance balance. TPPs process claims on vehicle service contracts that are underwritten by third-party insurers. We bear the risk of loss for claims on certain vehicle service contracts that are reinsured by us. We market the vehicle service contracts directly to Dealers.

We provide Dealers the ability to offer Guaranteed Asset Protection (“GAP”) to consumers through our relationships with TPPs. GAP provides the consumer protection by paying the difference between the loan balance and the amount covered by the consumer’s insurance policy in the event of a total loss of the vehicle due to severe damage or theft. The retail price of GAP is included in the principal balance of the Consumer Loan. The wholesale cost of GAP is paid to the TPP, net of an administrative fee retained by us. The difference between the wholesale cost and the retail price to the consumer is paid to the Dealer as a commission. Under the Portfolio Program, the wholesale cost of GAP and the commission paid to the Dealer are charged to the Dealer’s advance balance. TPPs process claims on GAP contracts that are underwritten by third-party insurers.

Program fees represent monthly fees charged to Dealers for access to our Credit Approval Processing System (“CAPS”); administration, servicing, and collection services offered by us; documentation related to or affecting our program; and all tangible and intangible property owned by Credit Acceptance. We charge a monthly fee of $599 to Dealers participating in our Portfolio Program and we collect it from future Dealer Holdback payments. 

Recognition Policy. We recognize finance charges under the interest method such that revenue is recognized on a level-yield basis over the life of the Loan. We calculate finance charges on a monthly basis by applying the effective interest rate of the Loan to the net carrying amount of the Loan (Loan receivable less the related allowance for credit losses). For Consumer Loans assigned on or subsequent to January 1, 2020, the effective interest rate is based on contractual future net cash flows. For Consumer Loans assigned prior to January 1, 2020, the effective interest rate was determined based on expected future net cash flows.

We report the change in the present value of credit losses attributable to the passage of time as a reduction to finance charges. Accordingly, we allocate finance charges recognized on each Loan between the Loan receivable and the related allowance for credit losses. The amount of finance charges allocated to the Loan receivable is equal to the effective interest rate applied to the Loans receivable balance. The reduction of finance charges allocated to the allowance for credit losses is equal to the effective interest rate applied to the allowance for credit losses balance.

Reinsurance


Our wholly owned subsidiary VSC Re Company (“VSC Re”), our wholly-owned subsidiary, is engaged in the business of reinsuring coverage under vehicle service contracts sold to consumers by Dealers on vehicles financed by us. VSC Re currently reinsures vehicle service contracts that are offered through one of our third party providers.TPPs. Vehicle service contract premiums, which represent the selling price of the vehicle service contract to the consumer, less fees and certain administrative costs, are contributed to a trust account controlled by VSC Re. These premiums are used to fund claims covered under the vehicle service contracts. VSC Re is a bankruptcy remote entity. As such, our exposure to fund claims is limited to the trust assets controlled by VSC Re and our net investment in VSC Re.


Premiums from the reinsurance of vehicle service contracts are recognized over the life of the policy in proportion to expected costs of servicing those contracts. Expected costs are determined based on our historical claims experience. Claims are expensed through a provision for claims in the period the claim was incurred. Capitalized acquisition costs are comprised of premium taxes and are amortized as general and administrative expense over the life of the contracts in proportion to premiums earned.


We have consolidated the trust within our financial statements based on our determination of the following:

We have a variable interest in the trust. We have a residual interest in the assets of the trust, which is variable in nature, given that it increases or decreases based upon the actual loss experience of the related service contracts. In addition, VSC Re is required to absorb any losses in excess of the trust'strust’s assets.
The trust is a variable interest entity. The trust has insufficient equity at risk as no parties to the trust were required to contribute assets that provide them with any ownership interest.
We are the primary beneficiary of the trust. We control the amount of premiumpremiums written and placed in the trust through Consumer Loan assignments under our Programs, which is the activity that most significantly impacts the economic performance of the trust. We have the right to receive benefits from the trust that could potentially be significant. In addition, VSC Re has the obligation to absorb losses of the trust that could potentially be significant.

New Accounting Updates Adopted During the Current Year

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – (CONTINUED)
Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting. In March 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-09, which simplifies the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and the classification on the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-09 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods, beginning after December 15, 2016, with early adoption permitted. The adoption of ASU 2016-09 on January 1, 2017 changed where we recognize excess tax benefits and deficiencies from stock-based compensation plans in our consolidated financial statements on a prospective basis. We receive a tax deduction upon the vesting of restricted stock and the conversion of restricted stock units to common stock based on the fair value of the shares. The amount that this tax deduction differs from the grant-date fair value that was recognized as stock-based compensation expense is referred to as an excess tax benefit or deficiency. For periods prior to adoption, these excess tax benefits or deficiencies were recognized in paid-in capital in our consolidated balance sheets and reported as a financing activity in our consolidated statements of cash flows. Upon adoption, these excess tax benefits or deficiencies are recognized in provision for income taxes in our consolidated statements of income and reported as an operating activity in our consolidated statements of cash flows. As a result of the adoption, excess tax benefits of $2.5 million decreased our provision for income taxes, increased our net cash provided by operating activities and decreased our net cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2017.(UNAUDITED)

New Accounting Updates Not Yet Adopted


Restricted Cash. Disclosure Improvements: Codification Amendments in Response to the SEC’s Disclosure Update and Simplification Initiative. In October 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-06, which amends the disclosure or presentation requirements related to various subtopics in the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (the “Codification”). The effective date for each amendment will be the date on which the SEC’s removal of that related disclosure from Regulation S-X or Regulation S-K becomes effective, with early adoption prohibited. If, by June 30, 2027, the SEC has not removed the applicable requirement from Regulation S-X or Regulation S-K, the pending content of the related amendment will be removed from the Codification and will not become effective for any entity. We are currently evaluating the impact the adoption of ASU 2023-06 will have on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. In November 2016,2023, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18,2023-07, which amends Topic 230 (Statement of Cash Flows)enhances the required disclosures for operating segments in our annual and requires that a statement of cash flows explain the change during the period in the total of cash, cash equivalents, and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents.interim consolidated financial statements. ASU 2016-18 is intended to reduce diversity in practice in how restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-182023-07 is effective on a retrospective basis for fiscal years,annual periods beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early2024.

We are currently evaluating the impact the adoption of ASU 2016-182023-07 will have on January 1, 2018 will change the presentation and classification of restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents in our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, which intends to improve the transparency of cash flows.


income tax disclosures by requiring (1) consistent categories and greater disaggregation of information in the rate reconciliation and (2) income taxes paid disaggregated by jurisdiction. It also includes certain other amendments intended to improve the effectiveness of income tax disclosures. ASU 2023-09 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024.

Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, which includes an impairment model (known as the current expected credit loss (CECL) model) that is based on expected losses rather than incurred losses. Under the new guidance, an entity recognizes as an allowance its estimate of expected credit losses. ASU 2016-13 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods, beginning after December 15, 2019. Early application is permitted for fiscal years, and interim periods, beginning after December 15, 2018. While we continue to assess the impact of ASU 2016-13, based on our preliminary assessment, we believe the adoption will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Revenue from Contracts with Customers. In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, which supersedes the revenue recognition requirements Topic 605 (Revenue Recognition), and most industry-specific guidance. ASU 2014-09 is based on the principle that revenue is recognized to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 also requires additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and changes in judgments and assets recognized from costs incurred to obtain or fulfill a contract. ASU 2014-09 permits two methods of adoption: retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented (full retrospective method), or retrospectively with the cumulative effect of initially applying the guidance recognized at the date of initial application (modified retrospective method). In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-14 to defer the effective date of ASU 2014-09 by one year to fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017. ASU 2015-14 also permits early adoption of ASU 2014-09, but not before the original effective date, which was for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016. We plan on adopting ASU 2014-09, as amended by ASU 2015-14, on January 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective method and do not believe the adoption will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. Given that the guidance is not applicable to our finance charges and premiums earned sources of revenue, our assessment has focused on our other income source of revenue. Based on our assessment completed to date, we do not expect the adoption of ASU 2014-09, as amended by ASU 2015-14, to have a material impact on the timing of revenue recognition and financial statement presentation of our other income source of revenue.

Leases. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, which requires lessees to recognize a right-of-use asset and related lease liability for leases classified as operating leases at the commencement date that have lease terms of more than 12 months. This ASU retains the classification distinction between finance leases and operating leases. ASU 2016-02 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods, beginning after December 15, 2018. Early application is permitted, but we have not yet adopted ASU 2016-02. We are currently assessing the impact the adoption of ASU 2016-02 will have on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

4.           FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS


The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate their value.

Cash and Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash and Cash Equivalents.  EquivalentsThe carrying amounts approximate their fair value due to the short maturity of these instruments.


Restricted Securities Available for Sale.The fair value of U.S. Government and agency securities, and corporate bonds, and municipal securities is based on quoted market values in active markets. For asset-backed securities, and mortgage-backed securities, and commercial paper, we use model-based valuation techniques for which all significant assumptions are observable in the market.

Fair value is an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. We group assets and liabilities at fair value in three levels, based on the markets in which the assets and liabilities are traded and the reliability of the assumptions used to determine fair value. These levels are:

Level 1Valuation is based upon quoted prices for identical instruments traded in active markets.
Level 2Valuation is based upon quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-based valuation techniques for which all significant assumptions are observable in the market.
Level 3Valuation is generated from model-based techniques that use at least one significant assumption not observable in the market. These unobservable assumptions reflect estimates or assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

As the vast majority of our team members now work remotely, we have significant excess space in the two office buildings that we own, which are located in Southfield, Michigan. After exploring options to reduce our office space, we have made the preliminary decision to sell the larger building and consolidate into the smaller building that has served as our headquarters since 1993.

The building that we intend to sell is currently scheduled for auction in mid-May 2024. As there is currently a significant amount of unoccupied office space in our region, we do not know whether the auction will result in a sale. Additionally, we believe the market value of the building and its improvements, together with the related land and land improvements and office furniture and equipment, is significantly less than the carrying value of $27.5 million. We have evaluated the facts and circumstances of the potential auction sale, and we do not believe that the building currently meets all of the criteria necessary for us to reclassify it as held for sale. If we were to reclassify the building as held for sale, we would record an impairment charge to reduce its carrying value to its estimated market value less costs to sell.

Ancillary product profit sharing consists of payments received from TPPs based upon the performance of vehicle service contracts and GAP contracts, and is recognized as income over the life of the vehicle service contracts and GAP contracts.


Interest consists of income earned on cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and cash equivalents, and restricted securities available for sale. Interest income is generally recognized over time as it is earned. Interest income on restricted securities available for sale is recognized over the life of the underlying financial instruments using the interest method.

Remarketing fees consist of fees charged to Dealers that are retained from the sale of repossessed vehicles by Vehicle Remarketing Services, Inc. (“VRS”), our wholly owned subsidiary that is responsible for remarketing vehicles for Credit Acceptance. VRS coordinates vehicle repossessions with a nationwide network of repossession contractors, the redemption of the vehicles by the consumers, and the sale of the vehicles through a nationwide network of vehicle auctions. VRS recognizes income from the retained fees at the time of the sale and does not retain a fee if a repossessed vehicle is redeemed by the consumer prior to the sale.

Revolving Secured LineLines of Credit Facility


We have two revolving secured lines of credit: (1) a $390.0 million revolving secured line of credit facility, to which we refer as our revolving secured line of credit facility, with a commercial bank syndicate that as of September 30, 2017 provided for borrowings of up to $345.0 million. Under the terms of theand (2) an uncommitted $20.0 million revolving secured line of credit facility, to which we refer as the RTP facility, with a lender for use solely in facilitating payments by the Company through the lender’s real-time payments service.


33


Borrowings under theour revolving secured line of credit facility, including any letters of credit issued under the facility, are subject to a borrowing-base limitation. This limitation equals 80% of the net book value of Loans, as defined in the agreement governing our revolving secured line of credit facility, less a hedging reserve (not exceeding $1.0 million), and the amount of other debt secured by the collateral whichthat secures theour revolving secured line of credit facility. Borrowings under theour revolving secured line of credit facility agreement are secured by a lien on most of our assets.assets that do not secure obligations under our Warehouse facilities or Term ABS financings.



Borrowings under the RTP facility are secured by a lien on the same collateral that secures obligations under our revolving secured line of credit facility. The RTP facility terminates automatically if the lender ceases to be part of the commercial bank syndicate under our revolving secured line of credit facility or if its lending commitments under our revolving secured line of credit facility are terminated.

Warehouse Facilities


We have fourfive Warehouse facilities with total borrowing capacity of $675.0$1,175.0 million. Each of the facilities areis with a different lender or group of lenders. Under each Warehouse facility, we can contributeconvey Loans to our wholly-owned subsidiariesthe applicable wholly owned subsidiary in return for cash andand/or an increase in the value of our equity in eachsuch subsidiary. In turn, each such subsidiary pledges the Loans as collateral to lenders to secure financing that will fund the cash portion of the purchase price of the Loans. The financing provided to each such subsidiary under the applicable facility is generally limited to the lesser of 80% of the net book valueoutstanding balance of the contributedconveyed Loans, as determined in accordance with the applicable agreement, plus thecertain restricted cash and cash equivalents pledged as collateral, on such Loans or the facility limit.


The financings create indebtedness for which the subsidiaries are liable and which is secured by all the assets of each subsidiary. Such indebtedness is non-recourse to us (other than customary, limited recourse to us in the form of repurchase obligations or indemnification obligations for any violations by us of our representations or obligations as seller, servicer, or custodian), even though we are consolidated for financial reporting purposes with the subsidiaries. Because the subsidiaries are organized as bankruptcy-remote legal entities separate from us, their assets (including the contributedconveyed Loans) are not available to our creditors.any creditors other than the creditors of the applicable subsidiary.


The subsidiaries pay us a monthly servicing fee equal to either 4% or 6%, depending upon the facility, of the collections received with respect to the contributedconveyed Loans. The servicing fee is paid out of the collections. Except for the servicing fee and holdback payments due to Dealers, if a facility is amortizing, we do not have any rights in any portion of such collections until all outstanding principal, accrued and unpaid interest, fees, and other related costs have been paid in full. If a facility is not amortizing,in its revolving period, the applicable subsidiary may beis entitled to retain athe portion of such collections available after the payment of interest and transaction expenses under the facility, provided that the borrowing base requirements of the facility are satisfied.


Term ABS Financings


We have wholly-ownedwholly owned subsidiaries (the “Funding LLCs”) that have completed secured financing transactions with qualified institutional investors or lenders. In connection with each of these transactions, we contributedconveyed Loans on an arms-length basis to eacha Funding LLC for cash and the sole membership interest in that Funding LLC. In turn, each Funding LLC, other than that ofthe Funding LLCs for the Term ABS 2016-1, contributed2019-2, 2021-1, 2022-2, and 2023-A financings, conveyed the Loans to athe respective trusttrusts that issued notes to qualified institutional investors. The Funding LLCLLCs for the Term ABS 2016-1 transaction2019-2, 2021-1, 2022-2, and 2023-A financings pledged the Loans tofor the benefit of their respective lenders. The Term ABS 2014-2, 2015-1, 2015-2, 2016-2, 2016-3, 2017-12021-2, 2021-3, 2021-4, 2023-1, 2023-2, 2023-3, 2023-A, 2023-5, 2024-A, and 2017-2 transactions2024-1 financings each consist of three classes of notes. The Class C Notes fornotes (or, in the case of the Term ABS 2014-2 do not bear interest2023-A, three classes of loans), while the Term ABS 2022-1 and have been retained by us.Term ABS 2022-3 financings consist of four classes of notes. 


Each Term ABS financing at the time of issuance has a specified revolving period during which we may be required, and are likely to contributeconvey additional Loans to eachthe applicable Funding LLC. If applicable, eachEach Funding LLC (other than the Funding LLCs of the Term ABS 2019-2, 2021-1, 2022-2, and 2023-A financings) will then contributeconvey the Loans to theirits respective trust.  At the end of the applicable revolving period, the debt outstanding under each financing will begin to amortize.

10.           RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

In the normal course of our business, affiliated Dealers assigned Consumer Loans to us under the Portfolio and Purchase Programs.  Dealer Loans and Purchased Loans with affiliated Dealers were on the same terms as those with non-affiliated Dealers. Affiliated Dealers were comprised of Dealers owned or controlled by: (1) Donald Foss, our founder, significant shareholder and former Chairman of the Board; and (2) a member of Mr. Foss’s immediate family.

On January 3, 2017, Mr. Foss retired as officer, director and employee of the Company and entered into a shareholder agreement with the Company. Under the shareholder agreement, Mr. Foss agreed, until the final adjournment of the tenth annual meeting of shareholders held by the Company after the date of the shareholder agreement, to cause all shares of the Company beneficially owned by him or any of his affiliates or associates to be voted in accordance with the recommendation of the Company’s Board of Directors with respect to election and removal of directors, certain routine matters and any other proposal to be submitted to the Company’s shareholders with respect to any extraordinary transaction providing for the acquisition of all of the Company’s outstanding common stock. As a result, effective January 3, 2017, we no longer consider the remaining Dealers owned or controlled by Mr. Foss or a member of Mr. Foss’s immediate family to be affiliated with us while Mr. Foss’s voting interests in the Company are subject to the voting restrictions under the shareholder agreement and accordingly, we have excluded these Dealers from the affiliated amounts reported effective January 3, 2017.

On June 7, 2016, Mr. Foss sold certain affiliated Dealers previously owned or controlled by him to a third party. As a result, we no longer consider these Dealers to be affiliated and accordingly, we have excluded these Dealers from the affiliated amounts reported effective June 7, 2016.

Affiliated Dealer Loan balances were $0.0 million and $1.4 million as of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. As of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, affiliated Dealer Loan balances were 0.0% of total consolidated Dealer Loan balances. 

There was no related party Loan activity during 2017. The following table summarizes our related party Loan activity for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016:

We recognize excess tax benefits and deficiencies from stock-based compensation plans in our consolidated financial statements on a prospective basis. We receive a tax deduction upon the vesting of restricted stock and the conversion of restricted stock units to common stock based on the fair value of the shares. The amount that this tax deduction differs from the grant-date fair value that was recognized as stock-based compensation expense is referred to as an excess tax benefit or deficiency. Fortax deficiency when the nine months ended September 30, 2017,deduction for the stock-based compensation expense of a stock award for tax purposes differs from the cumulative stock-based compensation expense recognized in the financial statements. The excess tax benefits of $2.5 million werebenefit or tax deficiency is recognized in provision for income taxes thus reducingin the period in which the amount of the deduction is determined, which is when restricted stock units are settled in common stock or stock options are exercised. Excess tax benefits reduce our effective income tax rate, while tax deficiencies increase our effective income tax rate. For the nine months ended September 30, 2016,The impact of excess tax benefits of $27.2 million were recognized in paid-in capital in our consolidated balance sheets, which had no impact on our effective income tax rate.rate for the three months ended March 31, 2024 decreased from the same period in 2023 primarily due to a decrease in the number of restricted stock units that were settled in common stock during the first quarter of 2023 due to the timing of long-term stock award grants.

Overview


We offermake vehicle ownership possible by providing innovative financing programssolutions that enable automobile dealers to sell vehicles to consumers regardless of their credit history. Our financing programs are offered through a nationwide network of automobile dealers who benefit from sales of vehicles to consumers who otherwise could not obtain financing; from repeat and referral sales generated by these same customers; and from sales to customers responding to advertisements for our financing programs, but who actually end up qualifying for traditional financing.

The increases in consolidated net incomeprovision for credit losses and interest expense, partially offset by an increase in finance charges. Our results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 were primarilyMarch 31, 2024 included:

A decrease in forecasted collection rates
The decrease in forecasted collection rates decreased forecasted net cash flows from our Loan portfolio by $30.8 million, or 0.3%, compared to stable forecasted collection rates during the first quarter of 2023 that increased forecasted net cash flows from our Loan portfolio by $9.4 million, or 0.1%.
A decrease in forecasted profitability for Consumer Loans assigned in 2020 through 2022
Forecasted profitability was lower than our estimates at March 31, 2023, due to an increasea decline in forecasted collection rates since the first quarter of 2023 and slower forecasted net cash flow timing during 2023 and the first quarter of 2024, primarily as a result of a decrease in Consumer Loan prepayments, which remain at below-average levels.
Growth in Consumer Loan assignment volume and the average balance of our Loan portfolio.portfolio

Unit and dollar volumes grew 24.1% and 20.2%, respectively, as compared to the first quarter of 2023. The average balance of our Loan portfolio, which is our largest-ever, increased 11.7% as compared to the first quarter of 2023.

An increase in our average cost of debt
Our average cost of debt increased from 4.7% to 7.0%, primarily a result of higher interest rates on recently-completed or -extended secured financings and recently-issued senior notes and the repayment of older secured financings and senior notes with lower interest rates.
A decrease in common shares outstanding due to stock repurchases
Since the first quarter of 2023, we have repurchased approximately 728,000 shares, or 5.7% of the shares outstanding as of March 31, 2023.

Critical success factors include our ability to accurately forecast Consumer Loan performance, access capital on acceptable terms, and maintain or grow Consumer Loan volume at the level and on the terms that we anticipate, with anthe objective to maximize economic profit.profit over the long term. Economic profit is a non-GAAP financial measure we use to evaluate our financial results and determine incentive compensation.profit-sharing for team members. We also use economic profit as a framework to evaluate business decisions and strategies. Economic profit measures how efficiently we utilize our total capital, both debt and equity, and is a function of the return on capital in excess of the cost of capital and the amount of capital invested in the business.

Consumer Loan Metrics


At the time a Consumer Loan is submitted to us for assignment, we forecast future expected cash flows from the Consumer Loan. Based on the amount and timing of these forecasts and expected expense levels, an advance or one-time purchase payment is made to the related Dealer at a price designed to maximize economic profit.


We use a statistical model to estimate the expected collection rate for each Consumer Loan at the time of assignment. We continue to evaluate the expected collection rate offor each Consumer Loan subsequent to assignment. Our evaluation becomes more accurate as the Consumer Loans age, as we use actual performance data in our forecast. By comparing our current expected collection rate for each Consumer Loan with the rate we projected at the time of assignment, we are able to assess the accuracy of our initial forecast. The following table compares our aggregated forecast of Consumer Loan collection rates as of September 30, 2017,March 31, 2024, with the aggregated forecasts as of June 30, 2017, December 31, 20162023 and at the time of assignment, segmented by year of assignment:

We have experienced increased levels of uncertainty associated with our estimate of the amount and timing of future net cash flows from our Loan portfolio since the beginning of 2020, with realized collections underperforming our expectations during the early stages of the COVID-19 pandemic, outperforming our expectations following the distribution of federal stimulus payments and enhanced unemployment benefits, and underperforming our expectations during the current economic environment. Forecasting collection rates accurately is challenging, so we have designed our business model to produce acceptable levels of profitability across our portfolio, even if Loan performance is less than forecasted in the aggregate. For the period from January 1, 2020 through March 31, 2024, the cumulative change to our forecast of future net cash flows from our Loan portfolio has been a decrease of $17.0 million, or 0.2%, as shown in the following table:

our loans is primarily driven by the amount and timing of the net cash flows we receive from the spread between the forecasted collection rate and the advance rate, less operating expenses and the cost of capital. Forecasting collection rates accurately at Loan inception is difficult. With this in mind, we establish advance rates that are intended to allow us to achieve acceptable levels of profitability across our portfolio, even if collection rates are less than we initially forecast.


The following table presents aggregate forecasted Consumer Loan collection rates, advance rates, the spreadand spreads (the forecasted collection rate less the advance rate), and the percentage of the forecasted collections that had been realized as of September 30, 2017.March 31, 2024, as well as forecasted collection rates and spreads at the time of assignment. All amounts, unless otherwise noted, are presented as a percentage of the initial balance of the Consumer Loan (principal + interest). The table includes both Dealer Loans and Purchased Loans.

The risk of a material change in our forecasted collection rate declines as the Consumer Loans age. For 20132019 and prior Consumer Loan assignments, the risk of a material forecast variance is modest, as we have currently realized in excess of 90% of the expected collections. Conversely, the forecasted collection rates for more recent Consumer Loan assignments are less certain as a significant portion of our forecast has not been realized.

The spread between the forecasted collection rate as of March 31, 2024 and the advance rate has rangedranges from 21.0%14.7% to 35.6%23.8%, on an annual basis, for Consumer Loans assigned over the last 10 years. The spread was atspreads with respect to 2019 and 2020 Consumer Loans have been positively impacted by Consumer Loan performance, which has exceeded our initial estimates by a greater margin than the high end of this range in 2009 and 2010, when the competitive environment was unusually favorable, and much lower during other years (2014 through 2017) when competitionpresented. The spread with respect to 2022 Consumer Loans has been negatively impacted by Consumer Loan performance, which has been lower than our initial estimates by a greater margin than the other years presented. The higher spread for 2024 Consumer Loans relative to 2023 Consumer Loans as of March 31, 2024 was more intense. The declineprimarily a result of a higher initial spread on 2024 Consumer Loans, which was due to a decrease in the advance rate, from 2016 to 2017 reflects the lower initial forecast on Consumer Loan assignments received in 2017, partially offset by an increase in Purchased Loans as a percentage of total unit volume. The increase in the spread from 2016 to 2017 was the result of the performance of 2017 Consumer Loans, which has materially exceeded our initial estimates, partially offset by a change inlower initial forecast. Additionally, the mixperformance of 2023 Consumer Loan assignments received during 2017, including an increase in Purchased Loans as a percentage of total unit volume.has been lower than our initial estimates.

(1)The forecasted collection rates and advance rates presented for Dealer Loans and Purchased Loans reflect the Consumer Loan classification at the time of assignment.
(1)The forecasted collection rates and advance rates presented for each Consumer Loan assignment year change over time due to the impact of transfers between Dealer and Purchased Loans. Under our Portfolio Program, certain events may result in Dealers forfeiting their rights to Dealer Holdback. We transfer the Dealer’s Consumer Loans from the Dealer Loan portfolio to the Purchased Loan portfolio in the period this forfeiture occurs.

Although the advance rate on Purchased Loans is higher as compared to the advance rate on Dealer Loans, Purchased Loans do not require us to pay Dealer Holdback.


The spread as of March 31, 2024 on 2024 Dealer Loans increased from 21.9% in 2016was 22.0%, as compared to 22.9% in 2017a spread of 21.3% on 2023 Dealer Loans. The increase was due to Consumer Loan performance, as the performance of 2023 Dealer Loans has been lower than our initial estimates.

The spread as of March 31, 2024 on 2024 Purchased Loans was 21.7%, as compared to a spread of 20.2% on 2023 Purchased Loans. The increase was primarily a result of a higher initial spread on 2024 Purchased Loans, due to a lower advance rate and higher initial forecast. The increase was partially offset by Consumer Loan performance, as the performance of 2017 Consumer2023 Purchased Loans in our Dealer Loan portfolio, which has exceeded our initial estimates, while those assigned to us in 2016 have declined from our initial estimates, partially offset by a change in the mix of Consumer Loan assignments.estimates.


The spread on Purchased Loans increased from 19.1% in 2016 to 21.0% in 2017 primarily as a result of the performance of 2017 Consumer Loans in our Purchased Loan portfolio, which has exceeded our initial estimates by a greater margin than those assigned to us in 2016, partially offset by a change in the mix of Consumer Loan assignments.

Consumer Loan assignment volumes depend on a number of factors including (1) the overall demand for our financing programs, (2) the amount of capital available to fund new Loans, and (3) our assessment of the volume that our infrastructure can support. Our pricing strategy is intended to maximize the amount of economic profit we generate, within the confines of capital and infrastructure constraints.


Unit and dollar volumes declined 4.7%grew 24.1% and 0.5%20.2%, respectively, during the thirdfirst quarter of 20172024 as the number of active Dealers grew 5.7% while10.5% and the average unit volume per active Dealer declined 9.7%increased 12.0%. Dollar volume declined slowerincreased less than unit volume during the thirdfirst quarter of 2017 due to an increase in the average advance paid per unit. This increase was the result of an increase in the average size of the Consumer Loans assigned primarily due to an increase in the average vehicle selling price and an increase in Purchased Loans as a percentage of total unit volume, partially offset by a decrease in the average advance rate2024 due to a decrease in the average initial forecastadvance paid, due to decreases in the average advance rate and the average size of the Consumer Loans assigned.

For three out of Unit volume for the four most recent quarters, unit volumes declined as28-day period ended April 28, 2024 grew 11.4% compared to the same periods of the prior year. This trend reflects the difficulty of growing the number of active dealers fast enough to offset the impact of the competitive environment on attrition and per dealer volumes. In addition,period in response to the decline in forecasted collection rates experienced in 2016, we adjusted our initial collection forecasts downward during 2016. While the adjustments have been modest, we believe these adjustments have had an adverse impact on unit volumes.2023.

Results of Operations


The net Loan income (finance charge revenue less provision for credit losses expense) that we recognize over the life of a Loan equals the cash we collect from the underlying Consumer Loan less the cash we pay to the Dealer. We believe the economics of our business are best exhibited by recognizing net Loan income on a level-yield basis over the life of the Loan based on expected future net cash flows. Under the GAAP methodology we employ, which is known as the current expected credit loss model, or CECL, we are required to recognize:
a significant provision for credit losses expense at the time of the Loan’s assignment to us for contractual net cash flows we do not expect to realize; and
finance charge revenue in subsequent periods that is significantly in excess of our expected yield.

Due to the GAAP treatment of contractual net cash flows we do not expect to realize at the time of loan assignment (i.e. significant expense at the time of loan assignment, which is offset by higher revenue in subsequent periods), we do not believe the GAAP methodology we employ provides sufficient transparency into the economics of our business. For additional information, see Note 3 and Note 6 to the consolidated financial statements contained in Part I - Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, which is incorporated herein by reference.

Finance Charges. The increase of $35.5$48.1 million, or 15.9%11.4%, was primarily the result ofdue to an increase in the average net Loans receivable balance, partially offset by a decrease in the average yield on our Loan portfolio, as follows:

Due to an increase in the average net Loans receivable balance$43.6
Due to a decrease in the average yield(8.1)
    Total increase in finance charges$35.5


The increase in the average net Loans receivable balance was primarily due to the dollar volume of new Consumer Loan assignments exceeding the principal collected on Loans receivable. The average yield on our Loan portfolio for the three months ended September 30, 2017 decreased as compared to the same period in 2016 due to lower yields on more recent Consumer Loan assignments.


Other Income.  Premiums Earned. The increase of $2.2$4.5 million, or 18.3%25.9%, was primarily due to growth in the size of our reinsurance portfolio, which resulted from growth in new Consumer Loan assignments and an increase in the average premium written per reinsured vehicle service contract in recent periods.

Operating Expenses. The increase of $8.8 million, or 7.5%, was primarily due to an increase in ancillary product profit sharing incomegeneral and administrative expenses of $5.7 million, or 31.7%, primarily due to growthincreases in our Loan portfolio.legal and technology systems expenses.


Operating ExpensesProvision for Credit Losses. The increase of $6.5$48.6 million, or 11.7%35.4%, was due to increases in provision for credit losses on forecast changes and provision for credit losses on new Consumer Loan assignments.

We recognize provision for credit losses on new Consumer Loan assignments for contractual net cash flows that are not expected to be realized at the time of assignment. We also recognize provision for credit losses on forecast changes in the amount and timing of expected future net cash flows subsequent to assignment. The following table summarizes the provision for credit losses for each of these components:

(In millions)For the Three Months Ended March 31,
Provision for Credit Losses20242023Change
Forecast changes$87.2 $44.3 $42.9 
New Consumer Loan assignments98.8 93.1 5.7 
Total$186.0 $137.4 $48.6 

The increase in provision for credit losses related to forecast changes was due to a decline in Consumer Loan performance and slower net cash flow timing during the first quarter of 2024 compared to the first quarter of 2023. During the first quarter of 2024, we decreased our estimate of future net cash flows by $30.8 million, or 0.3%, to reflect a decline in forecasted collection rates during the period and slowed our forecasted net cash flow timing to reflect a decrease in Consumer Loan prepayments, which remain at below-average levels. Historically, Consumer Loan prepayments have been lower in periods with less availability of consumer credit. During the first quarter of 2023, we increased our estimate of future net cash flows by $9.4 million, or 0.1%, to reflect stable forecasted collection rates during the period; however, we slowed our forecasted net cash flow timing to reflect a decrease in Consumer Loan prepayments.

The increase in provision for credit losses related to new Consumer Loan assignments was primarily due to the following:

Ana 24.1% increase in general and administrative expense of $3.2 million, or 29.1%, primarily asConsumer Loan assignment unit volume, partially offset by a result of an increase in legal fees.
An increase in sales and marketing expense of $2.0 million, or 16.4%, primarily due to an increase14.5% decrease in the size of our sales force.
An increase in salaries and wages expense of $1.3 million, or 4.0%, primarily related to our servicing function as a result of an increaseaverage provision per Consumer Loan assignment. The decrease in the number of team members.

Provision for Credit Losses.  Under GAAP, when the present value of forecasted future cash flows declines relative to our expectations at the time of assignment, aaverage provision for credit losses is recorded immediately as a current period expense and a corresponding allowance for credit losses is established. For purposes of calculating the required allowance, Dealer Loans are grouped by Dealer and Purchased Loans are grouped by month of purchase. As a result, regardless of the overall performance of the portfolio of Consumer Loans, a provision can be required if any individual Loan pool performs worse than expected. Conversely, a previously recorded provision can be reversed if any previously impaired individual Loan pool experiences an improvement in performance.

During the three months ended September 30, 2017, overallper Consumer Loan performance was generally consistent with our expectations at the start of the period. However, the performance of certain Loan pools declined from our expectations during the period, resulting in a provision for credit losses of $25.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017, of which $20.2 million related to Dealer Loans and $5.5 million related to Purchased Loans. During the three months ended September 30, 2016, overall Consumer Loan performance declined from our expectations at the start of the period, resulting in a provision for credit losses of $22.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016, of which $21.6 million related to Dealer Loans and $1.2 million related to Purchased Loans.

Interest.  The increase of $5.4 million, or 21.5%,assignment was primarily due to ana decrease in the average advance rate for 2024 Consumer Loans.

51


Interest. The increase in interest expense of $38.1 million, or 70.0%, was due to:
An increase in our average cost of debt, which was primarily a result of higher interest rates on recently-completed or -extended secured financings and recently-issued senior notes and the repayment of older secured financings and senior notes with lower interest rates.
An increase in the average outstanding debt principal balance, which was primarily due to debt proceedsborrowing used to fund the growth inof our Loanloan portfolio and stock repurchases.

same period in 2023. The increase in the average net Loans receivable balance was primarily due to the dollar volumeimpact of new Consumer Loan assignments exceeding the principal collected on Loans receivable.  The average yield on our Loan portfolio for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 decreased as compared to the same periodtax benefits recognized in 2016 due to lower yields on more recent Consumer Loan assignments.

Other Income.  The increase of $3.9 million, or 10.1%, was primarily due to an increase in ancillary product profit sharing income due to growth in our Loan portfolio, partially offset by a decrease in GPS Starter Interrupt Device fee income due to a decrease in the number of units purchased by Dealers from third party providers in the current year.

Operating Expenses.  The increase of $19.0 million, or 11.3%, was primarily due to the following:

An increase in salaries and wages expense of $6.7 million, or 7.0%, primarily related to our servicing function as a result of an increase in the number of team members.
An increase in general and administrative expense of $6.4 million, or 17.9%, primarily as a result of an increase in legal fees.
An increase in sales and marketing expense of $5.9 million, or 15.6%, primarily due to an increase in the size of our sales force.

Provision for Credit Losses.  During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, overall Consumer Loan performance was generally consistent with our expectations at the start of the period. However, the performance of certain Loan pools declined from our expectations during the period, resulting in a provision for credit losses of $68.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, of which $55.6 million related to Dealer Loans and $12.4 million related to Purchased Loans. During the nine months ended September 30, 2016, overall Consumer Loan performance declined from our expectations at the start of the period, resulting in a provision for credit losses of $62.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016, of which $61.3 million related to Dealer Loans and $1.5 million related to Purchased Loans.

Interest.  The increase of $16.5 million, or 23.1%, as compared to the same period in 2016 was primarily due to an increase in the average outstanding debt principal balance due to debt proceeds used to fund the growth in our Loan portfolio and stock repurchases. The following table shows interest expense, the average outstanding debt balance, and the average cost of debt for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016:

Provision for Income Taxes.  For the nine months ended September 30, 2017, the effective tax rate decreased to 36.5% from 37.1% in the same period in 2016. The decrease was primarily due to the adoption of new accounting guidance on January 1, 2017, which reduced our current year provision for income taxes by $2.5 million for tax benefits2023 related to our stock-based compensation plans.plan.

Properties

The COVID-19 pandemic had a significant impact on our work environment, as the vast majority of our team members began working remotely. Because our remote operations and processes proved successful early on, we now pursue a “remote first” strategy to take advantage of the national talent pool and an increased rate of team member satisfaction. While remote work has become the primary experience for most of our team members, we do have team members that, due to their personal preference or the nature of their responsibilities, have continued to work primarily in one of our office properties. Additionally, we have various on-site meetings, events, and team building activities for which in-person attendance is encouraged. Therefore, we believe we have a continuing need for some amount of office space.

As a result of the “remote first” strategy, we have significant excess space in the two office buildings that we own, which are located in Southfield, Michigan. After exploring options to reduce our office space, we have made the preliminary decision to sell the larger building and consolidate into the smaller building that has served as our headquarters since 1993.

The building that we intend to sell is currently scheduled for auction in mid-May 2024. As there is currently a significant amount of unoccupied office space in our region, we do not know whether the auction will result in a sale of the building. Additionally, we believe the market value of the building and its improvements, together with the related land and land improvements and office furniture and equipment, is significantly less than the carrying value of $27.5 million. We have evaluated the facts and circumstances of the potential auction sale, and we do not believe that the building currently meets all of the criteria necessary for us to reclassify it as held for sale. If we were to reclassify the building as held for sale, we would record an impairment charge to reduce its carrying value to its estimated market value less costs to sell.

Based upon anticipated cash flows, management believes that cash flows from operations and itsour various financing alternatives will provide sufficient financing for debt maturities and for future operations. Our ability to borrow funds may be impacted by economic and financial market conditions. If the various financing alternatives were to become limited or unavailable to us, our operations and liquidity could be materially and adversely affected.


Critical Accounting Estimates


Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. On an ongoing basis, we review our accounting policies, assumptions, estimates, and judgments to ensure that our financial statements are presented fairly and in accordance with GAAP. Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 20162023 discusses several critical accounting estimates, which we believe involve a high degree of judgment and complexity. There have been no material changes to the estimates and assumptions associated with these accounting estimates from those discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.2023.
