Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements for the period ended September 30, 20222023 have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information, the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. The accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 20212022 has been derived from audited consolidated financial statements. While certain information and disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), management believes that the disclosures herein are adequate to make the unaudited interim condensed consolidated information presented not misleading. In the opinion of management, the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the periods presented. Such adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature. The consolidated results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of results expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2022.2023.

The accounting policies followed by the Company are set forth in Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies in the 20212022 Financial Statements.
Adoption of New Accounting Standards to be AdoptedStandard
In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-13, “Financial Instruments-Credit Losses:Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial InstrumentsInstruments”.” The amendments in (“ASU 2016-13 introduce a new2016-13”). This update to Accounting Standards Codification Topic (“ASC”) 326, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (“ASC 326”), significantly changed the way entities recognize impairment on many financial assets by requiring immediate recognition of estimated credit losses expected to occur over the asset’s remaining life. FASB describes this impairment recognition model as the current expected credit loss (“CECL”) model for certain financial assets, including mortgage loans and reinsurance receivables. The newbelieves the CECL model will not apply to debt securities classified as available-for-sale. For assets within the scope of the new model, an entity will recognize as an allowance against earnings its estimate of the contractual cash flows not expected to be collected on day one of the asset’s acquisition. The allowance may be reversed through earnings if a security recoversresult in value. This differs from the current impairment model, which requiresmore timely recognition of credit losses when they have been incurred and recognizes a security’s subsequent recovery in value in other comprehensive income. ASU 2016-13 also makes targeted changes to the current impairment model for available-for-sale debt securities, which comprise the majority of the Company’s invested assets. Similar tosince the CECL model incorporates expected credit loss impairments will be recorded in an allowance against earningslosses versus incurred credit losses. The scope of FASB’s CECL model includes loans, held-to-maturity debt instruments, lease receivables, loan commitments and financial guarantees that may be reversedare not accounted for subsequent recoveries inat fair value. The amendments in ASU 2016-13, along with related amendments in ASU 2018-19, “Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses,” are effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2019 on a modified retrospective basis. For smaller reporting companies, the effective date for annual and interim periods is January 1, 2023. The Company is reviewing its policies and processes to ensure compliance with the requirements in ASU 2016-13.

Credit Quality Information
The following tables present credit-related information atEffective January 1, 2023, we adopted ASC 326, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments,” which replaced the “class” level in accordanceincurred loss methodology for determining out provision for credit losses and allowance for credit losses with FASB Accounting Standard Codification 310-10-50, “Disclosures aboutcurrent expected credit loss (“CECL”) model. Upon the Credit Qualityadoption of Finance Receivables andASC 326 the Allowancetotal amount of the allowance for Credit Losses.” See our 2021 Form 10-K, as filed withcredit losses (“ACL”) on loans estimated using the SEC, for more information.CECL methodology increased $178 compared to the total amount of the allowance recorded using the prior incurred loss model.
Gross finance receivables – By risk rating:Based on the Company’s size, complexity and historical data the aggregate method or loss-rate method was selected to estimate expected credit losses. An expected loss ratio is applied based on internal historical losses and originations. The aggregate method relies upon the performance of an entire segment of the loan portfolio to best represent the behavior of these specific segments over time. In addition, modified open pool approach was used which utilizes our borrowers credit rankings for both construction and development loans. Internal risk-rating grades are assigned by the Company’s management based on an analysis of financial and collateral strength and other credit attributes underlying each loan. Loan grades are A, B and C and Unsecured for both construction and development loans where A and C defines the highest and lowest scores, respectively. Unsecured loans in our portfolio do not hold underlying collateral.

For loans greater than 12 months in age that are individually evaluated, appraisals are ordered and prepared if the current appraisal is greater than 13 months old and construction is greater than 90% complete. If construction is less than 90% complete the Company uses the latest appraisal on file. At certain times the Company may choose to use a broker’s opinions of value (“BOV”) as a replacement for an appraisal if deemed more efficient by management. Appraised values are adjusted down for estimated costs associated with asset disposal. Broker’s opinion of selling price, use currently valid sales contracts on the subject property, or representative recent actual closings by the builder on similar properties may be used in place of a broker’s opinion of value.
Appraisers are state certified, and are selected by first attempting to utilize the appraiser who completed the original appraisal report. If that appraiser is unavailable or unreasonably expensive, we use another appraiser who appraises routinely in that geographic area. BOVs are created by real estate agents. We try to first select an agent we have worked with, and then, if that fails, we select another agent who works in that geographic area.
In addition, our loan portfolio includes performing, forbearance and non-accrual loans. The Company’s policies with respect to placing loans on non-accrual and individually evaluated if they are past due greater than 90 days unless management deems the loan an exception. A fair market value analysis is performed and an allowance for credit loss is established based on the results of the analysis.

Critical Accounting Estimates
To assist in evaluating our interim condensed consolidated financial statements, we describe below the critical accounting estimates that we use. We consider an accounting estimate to be critical if: (1) the accounting estimate requires us to make assumptions about matters that were highly uncertain at the time the accounting estimate was made, and (2) changes in the estimate that are reasonably likely to occur from period to period, or use of different estimates that we reasonably could have used, would have a material impact on our consolidated financial condition or results of operations. See our 20212022 Form 10-K, as filed with the SEC, for more information on our critical accounting estimates. No material changes to our critical accounting estimates have occurred since December 31, 20212022 unless listed below.
Loan Losses
Fair value of collateral has the potential to impact the calculation of the loan loss provision (the amount we have expensed over time in anticipation of loan losses we have not yet realized). Specifically, relevant to the allowance for loan loss reserve is the fair value of the underlying collateral supporting the outstanding loan balances. Fair value measurements are 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. Due to a rapidly changing economic market, an erratic housing market, the various methods that could be used to develop fair value estimates, and the various assumptions that could be used, determining the collateral’s fair value requires significant judgment.

There are three main components that can impact our interest spread:
● Difference between the interest rate received (on our loan assets) and the interest rate paid (on our borrowings). The loans we have originated have interest rates which are based on our cost of funds, with a minimum cost of funds of 7%10.25%. For most loans, the margin is fixed at 3%2.5%; however, for our development loans the margin is generally fixed at 7%. This component is also impacted by the lending of money with no interest cost (our equity).
Estimated interest income on loans increaseddecreased to 15% and 14% for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 20222023 compared to 12%15% for the same periodsperiod of the prior year.2022. Interest income increaseddecreased $511, due primarily to a decline inwrite offs related to two borrowers who were impaired during the totalthird quarter of loans not paying interest. Construction loans not paying interest as of September 30, 2022 and 2021 were $5,890 and $9,529, respectively.
Interest expense decreased to 9% for both the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 20222023 compared to 10% for both of the same periods of the prior year. The decrease in the interest expense is due to the lowered effective interest rate of 8.88% for the period ended September 30, 2022 compared to 9.53% for the same period of the prior year. We reduced rates of both secured and unsecured debt during the period ended September 30, 2022 compared to the same period of 2021.

We anticipate our standard margin to be 2.5% on all future construction loans and generally 7% on all development loans which yields a blended margin of approximately 3.5%. In July 2022 we changed our pricing model to decrease by 0.5% our pricing on all new construction loans during their first year,This 2.5% may increase because some customers run past the standard repayment time and increase pricing by 2.5% on those loans at all timespay a higher rate of interest after that. This pricing change is anticipatedFor the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2023, margin not including fee income was 5% compared to lower profit4% for the same period in the remaining quarter of 2022 by approximately $18 and in the first two quarters of 2023 by $54, however we anticipate that by the fourth quarter of 2023 the pricing change will increase our profitability. If all currently owned construction loans were currently using this pricing, our profitability would increase by $310 perprior year.
● Fee income. Our construction loan fee is 5% on the amount we commit to lend, which is amortized over the expected life of each loan. In addition, our development loans typically do not recognize a loan fee. When loans terminate before their expected maturity,life, the remaining fee is recognized at the terminationthat time. During 2022, we started charging an annual fee on most of the loan. Duringour development loans which varies.
Fee income on loans before deferred loan fee adjustments decreased 1% to 5% for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to 6% for the same period of 2022 and 2021, fee income, net was 5%.due primarily to fully funded loans taking longer to payoff due to the rise in long-term interest rates.
● Amount of nonperformingnon-performing assets. Generally, two types of nonperformingnon-performing assets negatively affect our interest spread:spread which are loans not paying interest and foreclosed assets.
As of September 30, 2022 and 2021, construction and development loans which did not accrue interest was $5,890 and $9,529, respectively.
Foreclosed assets do not provide a monthly interest return. As of September 30, 20222023 and December 31, 2021,2022, foreclosed assets were $1,443$139 and $2,724,$1,822, respectively, which resulted in a negative impact to our interest spread in both years.spread.
The amountAs of nonperforming assets is expected to decrease over the next quarter as we continue to liquidate nonperforming assets.September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, gross loans receivables non-accrual loans or loans not earning interest was $8,320 and $7,178, respectively.
Loan Loss Provision

Commercial Loans – Construction Loan Portfolio Summary
We anticipate that the aggregate balance of our construction loan portfolio will increase during the fourth quarter of 2022 because: 1) Payoffs are slowing as builder sales are slowing some, 2) housing starts are down which should reduce competition between builders for labor and should allow for faster construction which will initially increase the balances, and 3) we had strong originations in the first three quarters of 2022 and those loans will be growing in balance during the fourth quarter.built homes take longer to sell.

Effective January 1, 2023, we adopted ASC 326, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments,” which replaced the incurred loss methodology for determining out provision for credit losses and allowance for credit losses with current expected credit Loss (“CECL”) model. Upon the adoption of ASC 326 the total amount of the allowance for credit losses (“ACL”) on loans estimated using the CECL methodology increased $178 compared to the total amount of the allowance recorded using the prior incurred loss model.
Finance Receivables – MethodBased on the Company’s size, complexity and historical data the aggregate method or loss-rate method was selected to estimate expected credit losses. An expected loss ratio is applied based on internal historical losses and originations. The aggregate method relies upon the performance of impairment calculation:

Asan entire segment of September 30, 2022the loan portfolio to best represent the behavior of these specific segments over time. In addition, modified open pool approach was used which utilizes our borrowers credit rankings for both construction and December 31, 2021, there were nodevelopment loans. Internal risk-rating grades are assigned by the Company’s management based on an analysis of financial and collateral strength and other credit attributes underlying each loan. Loan grades are A, B and C and Unsecured for both construction and development loans acquired with deteriorated credit quality.where A and C defines the highest and lowest scores, respectively. Unsecured loans in our portfolio do not hold underlying collateral.
Impaired LoansEach loan pool is adjusted for qualitative factors not inherently considered in the quantitative analysis. The qualitative adjustments either increase or decrease the quantitative model estimation. We consider factors that are relevant within the qualitative framework which include the following: lending policy, changes in nature and volume of loans, staff experience, changes in volume and trends of non-performing loans, trends in underlying collateral values, quality of our loan review system and other economic conditions, including inflation.
The following table presents the Company’s gross loans receivable, commitment value and ACL for each respective credit rank loan pool category as of September 30, 2023.

For loans greater than 12 months in age that are individually evaluated, appraisals are ordered and prepared if the current appraisal is greater than 13 months old and construction is greater than 90% complete. If construction is less than 90% complete the Company uses the latest appraisal on file. At certain times the Company may choose to use a broker’s opinions of value (“BOV”) as a replacement for an appraisal if deemed more efficient by management. Appraised values are adjusted down for estimated costs associated with asset disposal. Broker’s opinion of selling price, use currently valid sales contracts on the subject property, or representative recent actual closings by the builder on similar properties may be used in place of a broker’s opinion of value.
Appraisers are state certified, and are selected by first attempting to utilize the appraiser who completed the original appraisal report. If that appraiser is unavailable or unreasonably expensive, we use another appraiser who appraises routinely in that geographic area. BOVs are created by real estate agents. We try to first select an agent we have worked with, and then, if that fails, we select another agent who works in that geographic area.

In addition, our loan portfolio includes performing, forbearance and non-accrual loans. The Company’s policies with respect to placing loans on non-accrual and individually evaluated if they are past due greater than 90 days unless management deems the loan an exception. A fair market value analysis is performed and an allowance for credit loss is established based on the results of the analysis.

Redeemable Preferred Equity and Members’ Capital
We strive to maintain a reasonable (about 15%) balance between (1) redeemable preferred equity plus members’ capital and (2) total assets. The ratio of redeemable preferred equity plus members’ capital to total assets was 14%9.3% and 11.9% as of September 30, 20222023 and December 31, 2021.2022, respectively. We anticipate this ratio to increase as more earnings are retained in 20222023 and 2024 and some additional preferred equity may be added. The % went down as we eliminated the Preferred B equity, repaid a Preferred C investor and received investments from all of the Common equity investors. While the percentage sited above did reduce, the Common equity increased from $180 to $2,117 during the above time period.

Summary
We have the funding available to address the loans we have today, including our unfunded commitments. We anticipate not growing our assets;assets reducing in the remainder of 2023; however, we are prepared to grow if the economic environment requires or allows itfor an increase of our assets through the net sources and uses (12-month liquidity) listed above as well as future capital increases from debt, redeemable preferred equity, and regular equity. Our expectation to growreduce loan asset balances is subject to changes due to changes in demand, competition,the housing market and the economy.competition. Although our secured debt is almost entirely listed as currently due because of the underlying collateral being demand notes, the vast majority of our secured debt is either contractually set to automatically renew unless notice is given or, in the case of purchase and sale agreements, has no end date as to when the purchasers will not purchase new loans (although they are never required to purchase additional loans).
Inflation, Interest Rates, and Housing Starts
Since we are in the housing industry, we are affected by factors that impact that industry. Housing starts impact our customers’ ability to sell their homes. Faster sales generally mean higher effective interest rates for us, as the recognition of fees we charge is spread over a shorter period. Slower sales generally mean lower effective interest rates for us. Slower sales also are likely to increase the default rate we experience.
Housing inflation has a positive impact on our operations. When we lend initially, we are lending a percentage of a home’s expected value, based on historical sales. If those estimates prove to be low (in an inflationary market), the percentage we loaned of the value actually decreases, reducing potential losses on defaulted loans. The opposite is true in a deflationary housing price market. It is our opinion that values are well above average in many of the housing markets in the U.S. today, and our lending against these values is having more risk than prior years. In some of our markets, prices of sold homes are dropping. This is both because some homes are selling for less and because the average home selling is smaller (more affordable). However, we anticipate significant declines in home values in many markets over the next 12 months as mortgage interest rates continue to rise.months.
Interest rates have several impacts on our business. First, rates affect housing (starts, home size, etc.). High long-term interest rates may decrease housing starts, having the effects listed above. We can see this impact now as housingHousing starts recently dropped by approximately 27%.have been increasing for the last 12 months, but customers are reporting longer hold times of built product. Higher interest rates will also affect our investors. We believe that there will be a spread between the rate our Notes yield to our investors and the rates the same investors could get on deposits at FDIC insured institutions. We also believe that the spread may need to widen if these rates rise. For instance, if we pay 7% above average CD rates when CDs are paying 0.5%, when CDs are paying 3%5%, we may have to have a larger than 7% difference. This may cause our lending rates, which are based on our cost of funds, to be uncompetitive. While the prime rate and fed funds rate have increased significantly in 2022, the CD rates, while increasing, have not increased as much. High interest rates may also increase builder defaults, as interest payments may become a higher portion of operating costs for the builder. Below is a chart showing three-year U.S. treasury rates and 30-year fixed mortgage rates. The U.S. treasury rates, are used by us here to approximate CD rates, however in the current environment, this is less accurate than in most years.rates. Both the short- and long-term interest rates have risen slightly but are generally low historically.
to historically normal levels.
Housing prices are also generally correlated with housing starts, so that increases in housing starts usually coincide with increases in housing values, and the reverse is generally true. Below is a graph showing single family housing starts from 2000 through today.

To date, changes in housing starts, CD rates, and inflation have not had a material impact on our business.
