The Company considered recent collection activity in its determination to adjust assumptions related to estimated remaining collections ("ERC") for certain pools. Based on these considerations, the Company’s estimates of ERC incorporate changes in both amounts and in the timing of expected cash collections over the forecast period. Changes in expected recoveries for the three months ended June 30, 2023 were a net positive $21.1 million. This includes $25.3 million in recoveries received in excess of forecast (cash collections overperformance) and a $4.2 million negative adjustment to changes in expected future recoveries. The $25.3 million in recoveries received in excess of forecast was largely due to overperformance generated from larger than expected one-time payments in Europe and performance on new vintages in South America. |
