Organization of Medallion Financial Corp. and its Subsidiaries

(1) ORGANIZATION OF MEDALLION FINANCIAL CORP. AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES

Medallion Financial Corp., or the Company, is a specialty finance company organized as a Delaware corporation that reports as a bank holding company, but is not a bank holding company for regulatory purposes. The Company conducts its business through various wholly-owned subsidiaries including its primary operating company, Medallion Bank, or the Bank, a Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, or FDIC, insured industrial bank that originates consumer loans, raises deposits, and conducts other banking activities. The Bank is subject to competition from other financial institutions and to the regulations of certain federal and state agencies, and undergoes examinations by those agencies. The Bank was formed in May 2002 for the purpose of obtaining an industrial bank charter pursuant to the laws of the State of Utah. The Bank originates consumer loans on a national basis for the purchase of recreational vehicles, or RVs, boats, collector cars, and other consumer recreational equipment and to finance home improvements such as swimming pools, roofs, and windows. Prior to 2015, the Bank originated commercial loans to finance the purchase of taxi medallions, all of which are serviced by the Company. The loans are financed primarily with time certificates of deposit which are originated nationally through a variety of brokered deposit relationships.

The Company also conducts business through its subsidiaries Medallion Capital, Inc., or Medallion Capital, a Small Business Investment Company, or SBIC, which conducts a mezzanine financing business; Medallion Funding LLC, or MFC, an SBIC, which historically was the Company's primary taxi medallion lending company; and Freshstart Venture Capital Corp., or Freshstart, which historically originated and serviced taxi medallion and commercial loans. Medallion Capital and MFC, as SBICs, are regulated by the Small Business Administration, or SBA. Medallion Capital is financed in part by the SBA.

The Company established a wholly-owned subsidiary, Medallion Financing Trust I, or Fin Trust, for the purpose of issuing unsecured trust preferred securities to investors. Fin Trust is a separate legal and corporate entity with its own creditors who, in any liquidation of Fin Trust, will be entitled to be satisfied out of Fin Trust’s assets prior to any value in Fin Trust becoming available to Fin Trust’s equity holders. The assets of Fin Trust, aggregating $34.0 million at September 30, 2025, are comprised solely of a subordinated note from the Company and are not available to pay obligations of its affiliates or any other party, and the assets of affiliates or any other party are not available to pay obligations of Fin Trust.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

(2) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S., or GAAP, requires management to make estimates that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes. Accounting estimates and assumptions are those that management considers to be the most critical to an understanding of the consolidated financial statements because they inherently involve significant judgments and uncertainties. All of these estimates reflect management’s best judgment about current economic and market conditions and their effects based on information available as of the date of these consolidated financial statements. If such conditions change, it is reasonably possible that the judgments and estimates could change, which may result in future impairments of goodwill and intangible assets, and allowance for credit losses, among other effects.

Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and all of its wholly-owned and controlled subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions, balances, and profits (losses) have been eliminated in consolidation.

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The Company consolidates all entities it controls through a majority voting interest, a controlling interest through other contractual rights, or as being identified as the primary beneficiary of variable interest entities, or VIEs. The primary beneficiary is the party who has both (1) the power to direct the activities of a VIE that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance, and (2) an obligation to absorb losses of the entity or a right to receive benefits from the entity that could potentially be significant to the entity. For consolidated entities that are less than wholly owned, the third-party’s holding is recorded as non-controlling interest.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with an original purchased maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash balances are generally held in accounts at large national or regional banking organizations in amounts that exceed the federally insured limits. Cash also includes $0.8 million of interest-bearing funds deposited in other banks with original terms of 5 to 6 years that cannot be withdrawn but are salable on an active secondary market without penalty.

Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities

The Company follows the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, FASB Accounting Standards Codification Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, or FASB ASC 820, which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. FASB ASC 820 defines fair value as an exit price (i.e., a price that would be received to sell, as opposed to acquire, an asset or transfer a liability), and emphasizes that fair value is a market-based measurement. It establishes a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between assumptions developed based on market data obtained from independent external sources and the reporting entity’s own assumptions. Further, it specifies that fair value measurement should consider adjustment for risk, such as the risk inherent in the valuation technique or its inputs. See also Notes 12 and 13 to the consolidated financial statements.

Equity Investments

The Company follows FASB ASC Topic 321, Investments – Equity Securities, or ASC 321, which requires all applicable investments in equity securities with a readily determinable fair value to be valued as such, and those without a readily determinable fair value, are measured at cost, less any impairment plus or minus any observable price changes. Equity investments of $9.3 million and $9.2 million as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, which were comprised mainly of nonmarketable stock and stock warrants, are recorded at cost less any impairment plus or minus observable price changes. Substantially all of these equity investments are held by Medallion Capital, our SBIC subsidiary, in connection with its mezzanine lending business. As of September 30, 2025, cumulative impairment of $6.3 million had been recorded with respect to these investments. The Company recognized $0.3 million and $15.8 million of net gains on equity investments during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and $0.5 million of net losses and $3.2 million of net gains on equity investments during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024.

During 2021, the Company purchased $2.0 million of equity securities with a readily determinable fair value. As a result, all unrealized gains and losses are included in gain (loss) on equity investments. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the fair value of these securities were $1.8 million and $1.7 million and are included in other assets on the consolidated balance sheets. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, the Company realized less than $0.1 million of gains related to equity securities.

Investment Securities

The Company follows FASB ASC Topic 320, Investments – Debt Securities, or ASC 320, which requires that all applicable investments in debt securities be classified as trading securities, available-for-sale securities, or held-to-maturity securities. Investment securities are purchased from time-to-time in the open market at prices that are greater or lesser than the par value of the investment. The resulting premium or discount is deferred and recognized using the interest method. ASC 320 further requires that held-to-maturity securities be reported at amortized cost and available-for-sale securities be reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses excluded from earnings at the date of the consolidated financial statements, and reported in accumulated other comprehensive loss as a separate component of stockholders’ equity, net of the effect of income taxes, until they are sold. At the time of sale, any gains or losses, calculated by the specific identification method, will be recognized as a component of operating results and any amounts previously included in stockholders’ equity, which were recorded net of the income tax effect, will be reversed. In accordance with ASC 326, the Company does not maintain an allowance for credit losses for accrued interest receivable.

For available-for-sale debt securities in an unrealized loss position, the Company first determines if it intends to sell the security, or if it is more likely than not that it will be required to sell it before recovering its amortized cost basis. If either condition is met, the security’s amortized cost basis is written down to its fair value through earnings. If neither condition is met, the Company assesses whether the decline in fair value is the result of credit losses or other factors. This assessment includes reviewing changes in the rating of the security by a rating agency, increases in defaults on the underlying collateral, and the extent to which the securities are issued by the federal government or its agencies, including the amount of the guarantee issued by those agencies, among other factors. If a credit loss exists, the Company compares the present value of expected cash flows from the security to its amortized cost basis. If the present value is less than the amortized cost basis for the security, a credit loss exists and an allowance for credit losses is recorded through earnings, but limited to the amount that the fair value of the security is less than its amortized cost basis. Any impairment not recorded through an allowance for credit losses is recognized in other comprehensive income, net of taxes.

Changes in the allowance for credit losses are recorded as a provision for, or reversal of, credit loss expense. Losses are charged against the allowance when management confirms the uncollectibility of an available-for-sale debt security or when either of the criteria regarding intent or requirement to sell is met. There were no investment securities allowance for credit losses as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

Loans

The Company’s loans, classified as held for investment, are currently reported at amortized cost, which is the principal amount outstanding, inclusive of loan origination costs, which primarily includes deferred costs paid to loan originators, and which are amortized to interest income over the life of the loan. Loans which the Company has classified as held for sale are reported at lower of amortized cost or fair value.

Loan origination fees and certain direct origination costs are deferred and recognized as an adjustment to the yield of the related loans. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, net loan origination costs were $51.5 million and $46.6 million. Net amortization was $2.7 million and $7.6 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and was $2.3 million and $6.6 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024.

Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. The consumer loan portfolio is typified by a larger number of smaller dollar loans that have similar characteristics. A loan is nonperforming when based on current information and events, it is unlikely the Company will be able to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the original loan agreement. Management considers loans that are in bankruptcy status, but have not been charged-off, to be nonperforming. Loans are considered past due when a borrower fails to make a full payment by the payment due date or maturity date. Consumer loans are placed on nonaccrual when they become 90 days past due, and are charged off in their entirety when deemed uncollectible, if they enter bankruptcy, or when they become 120 days past due, whichever occurs first, at which time appropriate recovery efforts against both the borrower and the underlying collateral are initiated. For the Recreation loan portfolio, the process to repossess the collateral is generally started at 60 days past due. If the collateral is not located and the account reaches 120 days delinquent, the account is charged off. If the collateral is repossessed, a loss is recorded by writing the collateral down to its fair value less selling costs, and the collateral is sent to auction. When the collateral is sold, the net auction proceeds are applied to the account, and any remaining balance is written off. Proceeds collected on charged off accounts are recorded as recoveries. Commercial loans and taxi medallion loans are placed on nonaccrual status, and all uncollected accrued interest is reversed, when there is doubt as to the collectability of interest or principal, or if loans are 90 days or more past due, unless management has determined that they are both well-secured and in the process of collection. Interest income on nonaccrual loans is generally recognized when cash is received, unless a determination has been made to apply all cash receipts to principal.

The Company may modify the contractual cash flow of loans in situations where borrowers are experiencing financial difficulties. The Company strives to identify borrowers in financial difficulty early and work with them to modify their loans to more affordable terms before they reach nonaccrual status. These modified terms may include interest rate reductions, principal forgiveness, term extensions, payment forbearance and other actions intended to minimize the economic loss to the Company and to avoid foreclosure or repossession of the collateral. For modifications where the Company forgives principal, the entire amount of such principal forgiveness is immediately charged off.

Loan collateral in process of foreclosure primarily includes taxi medallion loans that have reached 120 days past due and have been charged down to the net realizable value of the underlying collateral, in addition to consumer repossessed collateral in the process of being sold. For New York City taxi medallion loans in the process of foreclosure, the Company continued to utilize a net value of $79,500 when assessing net realizable value for these taxi medallion loans, despite fluctuating current transfer prices which may exceed that level from time to time. The "loan collateral in the process of foreclosure" designation reflects that the collection activities on these loans have transitioned from working with the borrower to the liquidation of the collateral securing the loans.

Loans Held for Sale

Loans held for sale consist of recreation loans and strategic partnership loans intended to be sold in the secondary market. Loans held for sale are recorded at the lower of amortized cost or fair value. Changes in fair value are recognized in non-interest income. For loans transferred into the held for sale classification from the held for investment classification, any allowance for credit losses previously recorded is reversed at the transfer date, and the loans are transferred at their amortized cost basis (which is reduced by any previous charge-offs, but excludes any allowance for credit losses). As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company did not recognize any fair value adjustments related to loans held for sale. Changes in fair value are recognized in non-interest income.

Allowance for Credit Losses

The Company follows Accounting Standards Update 2016-13, "Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments", or ASC 326, which requires recognition of lifetime expected losses using "reasonable and supportable" expectations about the future, referred to as the current expected credit loss, or CECL, methodology. For consumer loans, the Company uses historical delinquent loan performance, qualitative adjustments, and actual loss rates modified by quantitative adjustments based on macroeconomic factors over a twelve-month reasonable and supportable forecast period followed by a six month reversion period. For commercial loans, the Company assesses the historical impact that macroeconomic indicators have had on the loan portfolio, to determine an approximate allowance for credit losses. Unlike consumer loans, where loans may have similar performing characteristics, each commercial loan is unique. The Company evaluates each commercial loan for specific impairment with additional allowance for credit losses recognized as necessary. For taxi medallion loans, the Company individually evaluates each loan and establishes a reserve based on fair value of collateral less cost to sell.

The allowance is evaluated on a quarterly basis by management based on the collectability of the loans in light of historical experience, the nature and size of the loan portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrowers' ability to repay, estimated value of any underlying collateral, prevailing economic conditions, and excess concentration risks. This evaluation is inherently subjective, as it requires estimates, including those based on changes in economic conditions, that are susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available. Credit losses are deducted from the allowance, and subsequent recoveries are added back to the allowance. The Company has elected to exclude accrued interest from its measurement of the allowance for credit losses.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Goodwill is evaluated for impairment on an annual basis at December 31 of each year or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable. Other intangible assets with finite useful lives are amortized either on an accelerated or straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. Other intangible assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable.

As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company had goodwill of $150.8 million, all of which related to the recreation and home improvement lending segments. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company had intangible assets of $18.1 million and $19.1 million. The Company recognized $0.4 million and $1.1 million of amortization expense on the intangible assets for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024.

Management engaged an independent third-party expert to perform a quantitative assessment of goodwill for impairment at December 31, 2024. The third-party expert’s assessment determined that it was more likely than not that the fair value of both the recreation lending and home improvement lending segments individually were not less than the carrying value of each of these segments. Based upon inputs and analysis deemed appropriate by the third-party expert, the third-party expert concluded that a fair value premium existed in excess of carrying value with respect to the recreation and home improvement lending segments. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 the Company did not identify any triggering events that would require re-evaluation of goodwill impairment in either segment.

The table below presents the intangible assets as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024:

Fixed Assets

Fixed assets are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization, and are depreciated on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives of 3 to 10 years. Leasehold improvements are amortized on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the lease term or the estimated economic useful life of the improvement. Depreciation and amortization expense was $0.6 million and $1.9 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and $0.1 million and $0.3 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024.

Deferred Costs

Deferred financing costs represent costs associated with obtaining the Company’s borrowings, and are amortized on a straight-line basis over the lives of the related financing agreements and life of the respective pool. Amortization expense, included as interest expense in the consolidated statements of operations, was $1.1 million and $3.3 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and was $1.2 million and $3.0 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024. In addition, the Company capitalizes certain costs for transactions in the process of completion (other than business combinations), including those for potential investments, and the sourcing of other financing alternatives. Upon completion or termination of the transaction, any accumulated amounts are amortized against income over an appropriate period, or written off. The amount on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets related to deposits and borrowing facilities were $9.0 million and $8.2 million as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, and there were no capitalized transaction costs as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

Income Taxes

Income taxes are accounted for using the asset and liability approach in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes, or ASC 740. Deferred tax assets and liabilities reflect the impact of temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities and their tax basis and are stated at the enacted tax rates expected to apply in the year when taxes are actually paid or recovered. Deferred tax assets are also recorded for net operating losses, capital losses and any tax credit carryforwards. A valuation allowance is provided against a deferred tax asset when it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. All available evidence, both positive and negative, is considered to determine whether a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets is needed. Items considered in determining the Company’s valuation allowance include expectations of future earnings of the appropriate tax character, recent historical financial results, tax planning strategies, the length of statutory carryforward periods and the expected timing of the reversal of temporary differences. The Company recognizes tax benefits of uncertain tax positions only when the position is more likely than not to be sustained assuming examination by tax authorities. The Company records income tax related interest and penalties, if applicable, within current income tax expense.

Earnings Per Share (EPS)

Basic earnings per share are computed by dividing net income resulting from operations available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilution that could occur if option contracts to issue common stock were exercised, or if restricted stock vests, and has been computed after considering the weighted average dilutive effect of the Company’s stock options and restricted stock. The Company uses the treasury stock method to calculate diluted EPS, which is a method of recognizing the use of proceeds that could be obtained upon exercise of options and warrants, including unvested compensation expense related to the shares, in computing diluted EPS. It assumes that any proceeds would be used to purchase common stock at the average market price during the period. The table below presents the calculation of basic and diluted EPS.

Stock Compensation

The Company follows FASB ASC Topic 718, or ASC 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation, for its equity incentive, stock option, and restricted stock plans, and accordingly, the Company recognizes the expense of these grants as required. Stock-based employee compensation costs pertaining to stock options are reflected in net income resulting from operations for any new grants using the fair values established by usage of the Black-Scholes option pricing model, expensed over the vesting period of the underlying option. Stock-based employee compensation costs pertaining to restricted stock and performance stock units are reflected in net income resulting from operations for any new grants using the grant date fair value of the shares and units granted, expensed over the vesting period of the underlying stock.

 

Regulatory Capital

The Bank subsidiary is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the FDIC and the Utah Department of Financial Institutions. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possible additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Bank’s financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Bank’s assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Bank’s capital amounts and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by the bank regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors.

FDIC-insured banks, including the Bank, are subject to certain federal laws, which impose various legal limitations on the extent to which banks may finance or otherwise supply funds to certain of their affiliates. In particular, the Bank is subject to certain restrictions on any extensions of credit to, or other covered transactions with, such as certain purchases of assets, the Company or its affiliates.

Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios as defined in the regulations (presented in the table below). Additionally, as conditions of granting the Bank’s application for federal deposit insurance, the FDIC ordered that the Tier 1 leverage capital to total assets ratio, as defined, be not less than 15%, a level which could affect the Bank's ability to pay dividends to the Company, and that an adequate allowance for credit losses be maintained. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Bank’s Tier 1 leverage ratio was considered well-capitalized. The Bank had excess Tier 1 leverage capital of $63.5 million over the 15% minimum required, which was $380.9 million based on our total assets as of September 30, 2025. On July 1, 2025, the Bank redeemed its Series F Preferred Stock, in its entirety, at an aggregate redemption price of $46.0 million. This redemption reduced Tier 1 leverage capital and the correlated excess Tier 1 leverage capital above the 15% minimum interest required. The Bank’s actual capital amounts and ratios and the regulatory minimum ratios are presented in the following table.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes, or Topic 740: Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. The main objective of this update is to provide transparency about income tax information through improvements to income tax disclosures primarily related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid information. The amendments in this update are effective for the annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company does not expect this update to have a material impact on the financial statements.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement, Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses. This update requires additional disaggregation of specific types of expenses within the notes to consolidated financial statements on an annual and interim basis. In January 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-01 to clarify that all public business entities are required to adopt ASU 2024-03 beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. The Company is assessing the impact of the update on the accompanying financial statements.

As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company had 52 and 58 securities with unrealized losses that have not been recognized in income. The investments are mortgage-backed securities and similar instruments with lower risk characteristics. The Company regularly reviews investment securities for impairment resulting from credit loss using both qualitative and quantitative criteria, as necessary based on the composition of the portfolio at period end. Based on the Company's assessment, no material impairments for credit losses were recognized during the period. The Company does not intend to sell its investment securities that are in an unrealized loss position and believes that it is unlikely that it will be required to sell these securities before recovery of the amortized cost. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company did not hold investments in any single issuer with an aggregate book value that exceeded 10% of the Company's equity, other than U.S. Government agency residential mortgage-backed securities issued by the Federal National Mortgage Association.

(A) DEPOSITS

Most deposits are raised through the use of investment brokerage firms that package time deposits in denominations of less than $250,000 qualifying for FDIC insurance into larger pools that are sold to the Bank. The rates paid on the deposits are highly competitive with market rates paid by other financial institutions. Additionally, a brokerage fee is paid, depending on the maturity of the deposits, the annual expense of which averages less than 0.15%. Interest on the deposits is accrued daily and paid monthly, quarterly, semiannually, or at maturity. Additionally, the Bank raises deposits through listing services and, as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Bank had $11.7 million and $10.4 million in listing service deposit balances from other financial institutions. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Bank had $4.6 million and $6.0 million in retail savings deposit balances.

In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which temporary differences become deductible pursuant to ASC 740. The Company considers the reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. The Company’s evaluation of the realizability of deferred tax assets must consider both positive and negative evidence. The weight given to the potential effects of positive and negative evidence is based on the extent to which it can be objectively verified. The Company has determined that a valuation allowance is necessary for net operating losses which the Company does not believe will be utilized as well as for deferred compensation in excess of statutory limits. Based upon these considerations, the Company determined the necessary valuation allowance as of September 30, 2025.

The Company has filed tax returns in many states. Federal, New York State, New York City, and Utah State tax filings of the Company for the tax years 2021 through the present are the more significant filings that are open for examination.

(8) STOCK OPTIONS AND RESTRICTED STOCK

The Company’s Board of Directors approved the 2018 Equity Incentive Plan, or the 2018 Plan, which was approved by the Company’s stockholders on June 15, 2018. The terms of the 2018 Plan provide for grants of a variety of different type of stock awards to the Company’s employees and non-employee directors, including options, restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance stock units, and stock appreciation rights, etc. On April 22, 2020, the Company’s Board of Directors approved an amendment to the 2018 Plan to increase the number of shares of the Company’s common stock authorized for issuance thereunder, which was approved by the Company’s stockholders on June 19, 2020. On April 26, 2022, the Company’s Board of Directors approved an additional amendment to the 2018 Plan to further increase the number of shares of the Company’s common stock authorized for issuance thereunder, which was approved by the Company’s stockholders on June 14, 2022. On April 25, 2025, the Company’s Board of Directors approved an additional amendment to the 2018 Plan to further increase the number of shares of the Company’s common stock authorized for issuance thereunder, which was approved by the Company’s stockholders on June 12, 2025. A total of 7,710,968 shares of the Company’s common stock are issuable under the 2018 Plan, and 2,262,718 shares remained issuable as of September 30, 2025. Awards under the 2018 Plan are subject to certain limitations as set forth in the 2018 Plan, which will terminate when all shares of common stock authorized for delivery have been delivered and the forfeiture restrictions on all awards have lapsed, or by action of the Board of Directors pursuant to the 2018 Plan, whichever occurs first.

The Company’s Board of Directors approved the 2015 Non-Employee Director Stock Option Plan, or the 2015 Director Plan, on March 12, 2015, which was approved by the Company’s shareholders on June 5, 2015, and on which exemptive relief to implement the 2015 Director Plan was received from the SEC on February 29, 2016. A total of 300,000 shares of the Company’s common stock were issuable under the 2015 Director Plan, and 258,334 remained issuable as of June 15, 2018. Effective June 15, 2018, the 2018 Plan was approved, and these remaining shares were rolled into the 2018 Plan. Under the 2015 Director Plan, unless otherwise determined by a committee of the Board of Directors comprised of directors who are not eligible for grants under the 2015 Director Plan, the Company granted options to purchase 12,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to a non-employee director upon election to the Board of Directors, with an adjustment for directors who were elected to serve less than a full term. The option price per share could not be less than the current market value of the Company’s common stock on the date the option was granted. Options granted under the 2015 Director Plan vested annually, as defined in the 2015 Director Plan. The term of the options could not exceed ten years.

The Company’s Board of Directors approved the First Amended and Restated 2006 Director Plan, or the Amended Director Plan, on April 16, 2009, which was approved by the Company’s shareholders on June 5, 2009, and on which exemptive relief to implement the Amended Director Plan was received from the SEC on July 17, 2012. A total of 200,000 shares of the Company’s common stock were issuable under the Amended Director Plan. No additional shares are available for issuance under the Amended Director Plan. Under the Amended Director Plan, unless otherwise determined by a committee of the Board of Directors comprised of directors who are not eligible for grants under the Amended Director Plan, the Company would grant options to purchase 9,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to an Eligible Director upon election to the Board of Directors, with an adjustment for directors who were elected to serve less than a full term. The option price per share could not be less than the current market value of the Company’s common stock on the date the option was granted. Options granted under the Amended Director Plan vested annually, as defined in the Amended Director Plan. The term of the options could not exceed ten years.

Additional shares are only available for future issuance under the 2018 Plan. As of September 30, 2025, 805,971 options on the Company’s common stock were outstanding under the Company’s plans, all of which have previously vested and are exercisable. Additionally, as of September 30, 2025, there were 727,415 unvested shares of restricted stock, 823,854 unvested performance stock units, 87,386 unvested restricted stock units, and 327,698 vested, unissued restricted stock units outstanding under the 2018 Plan. As of September 30, 2025, the total remaining unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested restricted stock, restricted stock units, and performance stock units was $6.5 million, which is expected to be recognized over the next 10 quarters. Total stock-based compensation expense was $1.7 million and $5.1 million, or $0.07 and $0.21 per diluted common share, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and $1.5 million and $4.6 million, or $0.06 and $0.20 per diluted common share, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024.

The fair value of each restricted stock grant, each restricted stock unit, and each performance stock unit is determined on the date of grant by the closing market price of the Company’s common stock on the grant date. The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. There were no options granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024.

During 2023, the Company’s Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors began granting performance stock units, or PSUs, to certain officers and employees of the Company. Granted PSUs are subject to specified performance criteria for a particular performance period. The number of PSUs that vest can range from zero to 200% of the grant amount. In addition, dividends that accrue during the vesting period are reinvested in dividend equivalent PSUs. PSUs and the related dividend equivalent PSUs are converted into shares of common stock after vesting. Once the PSUs and dividend equivalent PSUs have vested, shares of common stock are delivered.

The PSUs have vesting conditions based upon certain levels of total pre-tax income as well as return on common equity attained over a three-year period. The PSUs cliff vest after three years based upon the performance of the Company. Dividend equivalent PSUs accumulate and convert to additional shares for the benefit of the grantee at the vesting date or are forfeited if the performance conditions are not met. The following table presents the PSU activity for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and the year ended December 31, 2024.

Segment Reporting

(9) SEGMENT REPORTING

The Company has five business segments, which include four lending segments and one non-operating segment, which are reflective of how Company management makes decisions about its business and operations.

The four lending segments reflect the main types of lending performed at the Company, which are recreation, home improvement, commercial, and taxi medallion lending. The recreation and home improvement lending segments are operated by the Bank and loans are made to borrowers residing nationwide. The recreation lending segment is a consumer finance business that works with third-party dealers and financial service providers to finance RVs, boats, collector cars, and other consumer recreational equipment, of which RVs, boats, and collector cars make up 54%, 21%, and 12% of the segment portfolio, with no other product lines at or above 10%, as of September 30, 2025. The highest concentrations of recreation loans are in Texas and Florida at 16% and 13% of loans outstanding and with no other states at or above 10% as of September 30, 2025. The home improvement lending segment works with contractors and financial service providers to finance residential home improvement with the largest product lines being swimming pools, roofs, and windows at 31%, 29%, and 11% of total home improvement loans outstanding, and with no other product lines at or above 10% as of September 30, 2025. The highest concentrations of home improvement loans are in Florida and Texas at 13% and 12% of loans outstanding, with no other states at or above 10% as of September 30, 2025. The commercial lending segment focuses on serving a wide variety of industries, with concentrations in manufacturing, construction, and wholesale trade making up 56%, 16%, and 10% of the loans outstanding as of September 30, 2025, with no other product lines at or above 10% as of September 30, 2025. The commercial lending segment invests across the United States with a concentration in California and New York having 25% and 10% of the segment portfolio, with no other states having a concentration at or above 10% as of September 30, 2025. The taxi medallion lending segment arose in connection with the financing of taxi medallions, taxis, and related assets, primarily all of which are located in the New York City metropolitan area as of September 30, 2025.

The Company's corporate and other investments segment is a non-operating segment that includes items not allocated to the Company's operating segments such as investment securities, equity investments, intercompany eliminations, goodwill, and other corporate elements. The Company allocates portions of centrally incurred costs inclusive of overhead and interest expense formulaically based upon overall capital allocated to the lending segments.

As part of segment reporting, capital ratios for all operating segments have been normalized as a percent of consolidated total equity divided by total assets, with the net adjustment applied to corporate and other investments. In addition, the commercial segment primarily represents the mezzanine lending business, with certain legacy commercial loans (immaterial to total) allocated to corporate and other investments.

The Company's chief operating decision maker (CODM) is a group comprised of the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, President and Chief Operating Officer, and other senior members of management. The CODM primarily uses segment information to identify areas to improve efficiency of resources allocation, determine where to reinvest profits, and minimize unnecessary expenses. The CODM assesses segment performance mainly through selected financial ratios such as returns on average assets and net interest margin, which identifies areas requiring action.

The following table presents segment data as of and for the three months ended September 30, 2025.

Commitments and Contingencies

(10) COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

(A) EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS

The Company has employment agreements with certain key officers, including Mr. Alvin Murstein and Mr. Andrew Murstein, for either a one-, two-, or three-year term. Typically, the contracts will renew for new one-, two- or three- year terms unless prior to the term either the Company or the executive provides notice to the other party of its intention not to extend the employment period beyond the current one-, two- or three-year term (as applicable); however, there is currently one agreement that renews after two years for additional one-year terms and one agreement with a three-year term that does not have a renewal period. In the event of a change in control, as defined, during the employment period, the agreements provide for severance compensation to the executive in an amount equal to the balance of the salary, bonus, and value of fringe benefits which the executive would be entitled to receive for the remainder of the employment period.

On October 24, 2025, Mr. Alvin Murstein, the Chairman of the Board of Directors, or the Board, and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, entered into an amendment to the First Amended and Restated Employment Agreement, dated May 29, 1998, as between him and the Company. Pursuant to such amendment: (i) effective as of January 31, 2026 (the “Transition Date”), Mr. Murstein shall no longer be the Chief Executive Officer and shall become the Executive Chairman of the Board through May 29, 2027 (the “Term”); (ii) during the period between the date of such amendment and the Transition Date, Mr. Murstein shall, among other things, continue to serve as Chief Executive Officer of the Company; (iii) during the period from the Transition Date until the end of the Term (the “Retirement Date”), Mr. Murstein shall, among other things, continue to serve as Executive Chairman of the Board with the Company's expectation that Mr. Murstein will be nominated to serve a new three-year term as a Board member at the 2026 Annual Meeting of Shareholders of the Company and a failure by the Board to so nominate Mr. Murstein would constitute termination without cause under his employment agreement; (iv) Mr. Murstein shall remain an employee of the Company in his role as Executive Chairman of the Board; (v) Mr. Murstein's compensation shall be determined without regard to the transition to Executive Chairman, provided that, all incentive equity awards that are determined to be granted to Mr. Murstein in respect of calendar years 2025, 2026 and 2027 shall be granted solely in the form of restricted stock and options; and (vi) on the Retirement Date (or earlier if termination occurs by reason of death or disability), all outstanding unvested equity awards, other than performance awards, will immediately vest and, if applicable, become exercisable and all outstanding performance awards will remain outstanding until the end of the relevant performance periods and vest and be earned to the extent applicable objects have been met, on a prorated basis for the portion of the performance period that Mr. Murstein was employed.

In addition, on October 24, 2025, Mr. Andrew Murstein, the Company’s President and Chief Operating Officer, entered into an amendment to the First Amended and Restated Employment Agreement, dated May 29, 1998, as amended, between him and the Company. Pursuant to such amendment, effective as of January 31, 2026, Mr. Andrew Murstein shall become the President, Chief Executive Officer and Chief Operating Officer of the Company and shall remain President, Chief Executive Officer and Chief Operating Officer through the remainder of the employment term.

As of September 30, 2025, employment agreements expire at various dates through 2028, with future minimum payments under these agreements of approximately $7.7 million.

(B) OTHER COMMITMENTS

As of September 30, 2025, the Company had no other commitments. Generally, any commitments would be on the same terms as loans to or investments in existing borrowers or investees, and generally have fixed expiration dates. Since some commitments would be expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements.

(C) SEC LITIGATION

On December 29, 2021, the SEC filed a civil complaint in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York against the Company and its President and Chief Operating Officer alleging certain violations of the anti-fraud, books and records, internal controls and anti-touting provisions of the federal securities laws. The litigation related to certain issues that occurred during the period 2015 to 2017, including (i) the Company’s retention of third parties in 2015 and 2016 concerning posting information about the Company on certain financial websites and (ii) the Company’s financial reporting and disclosures concerning certain assets, including Medallion Bank, in 2016 and 2017, a period when the Company had previously reported as a business development company (BDC) under the Investment Company Act of 1940. In December 2024, the Company and its President and Chief Operating Officer reached an agreement in principle with the Division of Enforcement of the SEC, that if approved by the Commissioners of the SEC and the Court, would resolve this litigation. On May 30, 2025, the Court entered a Final Judgment as to the Company and its President and Chief Operating Officer resolving this litigation. The parties agreed to settle the matter with the SEC, consenting to the entry of the Final Judgment, without admitting or denying the allegations of the SEC complaint. Pursuant to the Final Judgment, among other things, (i) the parties were enjoined from violating specified provisions of the federal securities laws and rules thereunder, (ii) the Company paid a civil penalty of $3,000,000 (which amount was previously accrued in the fourth quarter of 2024) and (iii) the Company agreed to certain compliance-related undertakings.

(D) OTHER LITIGATION AND REGULATORY MATTERS

The Company and its subsidiaries are subject to inquiries from certain regulators and are currently involved in various legal proceedings incident to the normal course of business, including collection matters with respect to certain loans. The Company intends to vigorously defend any outstanding claims and pursue its legal rights. In the opinion of management, based on the advice of legal counsel, there is no proceeding pending, or to the knowledge of management threatened, which in the event of an adverse decision could result in a material adverse impact on the financial condition or results of operations of the Company.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

(12) FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

FASB ASC Topic 825, “Financial Instruments,” requires disclosure of fair value information about certain financial instruments, whether assets, liabilities, or off-balance-sheet commitments, if practicable. The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instrument. Fair value estimates that were derived from broker quotes cannot be substantiated by comparison to independent markets and, in many cases, could not be realized in immediate settlement of the instrument.

(a) Cash and cash equivalents – Book value equals fair value.

(b) Investment securities – The Company’s investments are recorded at the estimated fair value of such investments.

(c) Loans receivable – A discounted cash flow method under the income approach is utilized to estimate the market value of the loan portfolio. The discounted cash flow method relies upon assumptions about the amount and timing of scheduled principal and interest payments, principal prepayments, and current market rates. The loan portfolio is aggregated into categories based on loan type and credit quality. For each loan category, weighted average statistics, such as coupon rate, age, and remaining term are calculated. These are Level 3 valuations.

(d) Loans held for sale – Loans held for sale consist of recreation loans and strategic partnership loans intended to be sold on the secondary market. Loans held for sale are recorded at the lower of amortized cost or fair value.

(e) Accrued interest receivable – Book value equals market value.

(f) Floating rate borrowings – Due to the short-term nature of these instruments, the carrying amount approximates fair value.

(g) Fixed rate borrowings – The fair value for certificates of deposit is estimated by using discounted cash flow analyses, based on market spreads to benchmark rates, and are considered Level 2 valuations.

(h) Accrued interest payable – Due to the short-term nature of these instruments, the carrying amount approximates fair value.

(i) Commitments to extend credit – The fair value of commitments to extend credit is estimated using the fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and present creditworthiness of the counter parties. For fixed rate loan commitments, fair value also includes a consideration of the difference between the current levels of interest rates and the committed rates. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the estimated fair value of these off-balance-sheet instruments was not material.

The following tables present the carrying amounts and fair values of the Company’s financial instruments as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]  
Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities

(13) FAIR VALUE OF ASSETS AND LIABILITIES

The Company follows the provisions of FASB ASC 820, which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, establishes a fair value hierarchy based on the quality of inputs used to measure fair value, and enhances disclosure requirements for fair value measurements.

In accordance with FASB ASC 820, the Company has categorized its assets and liabilities measured at fair value, based on the priority of the inputs to the valuation technique, into a three-level fair value hierarchy. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (level 3). The Company's assessment and classification of an investment within a level can change over time based upon maturity or liquidity of the investment and would be reflected at the beginning of the quarter in which the change occurred.

As required by FASB ASC 820, when the inputs used to measure fair value fall within different levels of the hierarchy, the level within which the fair value measurement is categorized is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. For example, a level 3 fair value measurement may include inputs that are observable (levels 1 and 2) and unobservable (level 3). Therefore, gains and losses for such assets and liabilities categorized within the level 3 table below may include changes in fair value that are attributable to both observable inputs (levels 1 and 2) and unobservable inputs (level 3).

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value, recorded on the consolidated balance sheets, are categorized based on the inputs to the valuation techniques as follows:

Level 1. Assets and liabilities whose values are based on unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in an active market that the Company has the ability to access (examples include active exchange-traded equity securities, exchange-traded derivatives, most U.S. Government and agency securities, and certain other sovereign government obligations).

Level 2. Assets and liabilities whose values are based on quoted prices in markets that are not active or model inputs that are observable either directly or indirectly for substantially the full term of the asset or liability. Level 2 inputs include the following:

a)
Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets (for example, restricted stock);
b)
Quoted price for identical or similar assets or liabilities in non-active markets (for example, corporate and municipal bonds, which trade infrequently);
c)
Pricing models whose inputs are observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability (examples include most over-the-counter derivatives, including interest rate and currency swaps); and
d)
Pricing models whose inputs are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data through correlation or other means for substantially the full term of the asset or liability (examples include certain residential and commercial mortgage-related assets, including loans, securities, and derivatives).

Level 3. Assets and liabilities whose values are based on prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement. These inputs reflect management’s own assumptions about the assumptions a market participant would use in pricing the assets or liability (examples include certain private equity investments, and certain residential and commercial mortgage-related assets, including loans, securities, and derivatives).

A review of fair value hierarchy classification is conducted on a quarterly basis. Changes in the observability of valuation inputs may result in a reclassification for certain assets or liabilities. Reclassifications impacting level 3 of the fair value hierarchy are reported as transfers in/out of the level 3 category as of the beginning of the quarter in which the reclassifications occur.

Equity investments were recorded at cost less impairment plus or minus observable price changes. Commencing in 2020, the Company elected to measure equity investments at fair value on a non-recurring basis.

The following tables present the Company’s fair value hierarchy for those assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Policies)

Sep. 30, 2025
Accounting Policies [Abstract]  
Use of Estimates

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S., or GAAP, requires management to make estimates that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes. Accounting estimates and assumptions are those that management considers to be the most critical to an understanding of the consolidated financial statements because they inherently involve significant judgments and uncertainties. All of these estimates reflect management’s best judgment about current economic and market conditions and their effects based on information available as of the date of these consolidated financial statements. If such conditions change, it is reasonably possible that the judgments and estimates could change, which may result in future impairments of goodwill and intangible assets, and allowance for credit losses, among other effects.

Basis of Presentation

Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and all of its wholly-owned and controlled subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions, balances, and profits (losses) have been eliminated in consolidation.

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The Company consolidates all entities it controls through a majority voting interest, a controlling interest through other contractual rights, or as being identified as the primary beneficiary of variable interest entities, or VIEs. The primary beneficiary is the party who has both (1) the power to direct the activities of a VIE that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance, and (2) an obligation to absorb losses of the entity or a right to receive benefits from the entity that could potentially be significant to the entity. For consolidated entities that are less than wholly owned, the third-party’s holding is recorded as non-controlling interest.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with an original purchased maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash balances are generally held in accounts at large national or regional banking organizations in amounts that exceed the federally insured limits. Cash also includes $0.8 million of interest-bearing funds deposited in other banks with original terms of 5 to 6 years that cannot be withdrawn but are salable on an active secondary market without penalty.
Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities

Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities

The Company follows the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, FASB Accounting Standards Codification Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, or FASB ASC 820, which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. FASB ASC 820 defines fair value as an exit price (i.e., a price that would be received to sell, as opposed to acquire, an asset or transfer a liability), and emphasizes that fair value is a market-based measurement. It establishes a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between assumptions developed based on market data obtained from independent external sources and the reporting entity’s own assumptions. Further, it specifies that fair value measurement should consider adjustment for risk, such as the risk inherent in the valuation technique or its inputs. See also Notes 12 and 13 to the consolidated financial statements.
Equity Investments

Equity Investments

The Company follows FASB ASC Topic 321, Investments – Equity Securities, or ASC 321, which requires all applicable investments in equity securities with a readily determinable fair value to be valued as such, and those without a readily determinable fair value, are measured at cost, less any impairment plus or minus any observable price changes. Equity investments of $9.3 million and $9.2 million as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, which were comprised mainly of nonmarketable stock and stock warrants, are recorded at cost less any impairment plus or minus observable price changes. Substantially all of these equity investments are held by Medallion Capital, our SBIC subsidiary, in connection with its mezzanine lending business. As of September 30, 2025, cumulative impairment of $6.3 million had been recorded with respect to these investments. The Company recognized $0.3 million and $15.8 million of net gains on equity investments during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and $0.5 million of net losses and $3.2 million of net gains on equity investments during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024.

During 2021, the Company purchased $2.0 million of equity securities with a readily determinable fair value. As a result, all unrealized gains and losses are included in gain (loss) on equity investments. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the fair value of these securities were $1.8 million and $1.7 million and are included in other assets on the consolidated balance sheets. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, the Company realized less than $0.1 million of gains related to equity securities.
Investment Securities

Investment Securities

The Company follows FASB ASC Topic 320, Investments – Debt Securities, or ASC 320, which requires that all applicable investments in debt securities be classified as trading securities, available-for-sale securities, or held-to-maturity securities. Investment securities are purchased from time-to-time in the open market at prices that are greater or lesser than the par value of the investment. The resulting premium or discount is deferred and recognized using the interest method. ASC 320 further requires that held-to-maturity securities be reported at amortized cost and available-for-sale securities be reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses excluded from earnings at the date of the consolidated financial statements, and reported in accumulated other comprehensive loss as a separate component of stockholders’ equity, net of the effect of income taxes, until they are sold. At the time of sale, any gains or losses, calculated by the specific identification method, will be recognized as a component of operating results and any amounts previously included in stockholders’ equity, which were recorded net of the income tax effect, will be reversed. In accordance with ASC 326, the Company does not maintain an allowance for credit losses for accrued interest receivable.

For available-for-sale debt securities in an unrealized loss position, the Company first determines if it intends to sell the security, or if it is more likely than not that it will be required to sell it before recovering its amortized cost basis. If either condition is met, the security’s amortized cost basis is written down to its fair value through earnings. If neither condition is met, the Company assesses whether the decline in fair value is the result of credit losses or other factors. This assessment includes reviewing changes in the rating of the security by a rating agency, increases in defaults on the underlying collateral, and the extent to which the securities are issued by the federal government or its agencies, including the amount of the guarantee issued by those agencies, among other factors. If a credit loss exists, the Company compares the present value of expected cash flows from the security to its amortized cost basis. If the present value is less than the amortized cost basis for the security, a credit loss exists and an allowance for credit losses is recorded through earnings, but limited to the amount that the fair value of the security is less than its amortized cost basis. Any impairment not recorded through an allowance for credit losses is recognized in other comprehensive income, net of taxes.

Changes in the allowance for credit losses are recorded as a provision for, or reversal of, credit loss expense. Losses are charged against the allowance when management confirms the uncollectibility of an available-for-sale debt security or when either of the criteria regarding intent or requirement to sell is met. There were no investment securities allowance for credit losses as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.
Loans

Loans

The Company’s loans, classified as held for investment, are currently reported at amortized cost, which is the principal amount outstanding, inclusive of loan origination costs, which primarily includes deferred costs paid to loan originators, and which are amortized to interest income over the life of the loan. Loans which the Company has classified as held for sale are reported at lower of amortized cost or fair value.

Loan origination fees and certain direct origination costs are deferred and recognized as an adjustment to the yield of the related loans. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, net loan origination costs were $51.5 million and $46.6 million. Net amortization was $2.7 million and $7.6 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and was $2.3 million and $6.6 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024.

Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. The consumer loan portfolio is typified by a larger number of smaller dollar loans that have similar characteristics. A loan is nonperforming when based on current information and events, it is unlikely the Company will be able to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the original loan agreement. Management considers loans that are in bankruptcy status, but have not been charged-off, to be nonperforming. Loans are considered past due when a borrower fails to make a full payment by the payment due date or maturity date. Consumer loans are placed on nonaccrual when they become 90 days past due, and are charged off in their entirety when deemed uncollectible, if they enter bankruptcy, or when they become 120 days past due, whichever occurs first, at which time appropriate recovery efforts against both the borrower and the underlying collateral are initiated. For the Recreation loan portfolio, the process to repossess the collateral is generally started at 60 days past due. If the collateral is not located and the account reaches 120 days delinquent, the account is charged off. If the collateral is repossessed, a loss is recorded by writing the collateral down to its fair value less selling costs, and the collateral is sent to auction. When the collateral is sold, the net auction proceeds are applied to the account, and any remaining balance is written off. Proceeds collected on charged off accounts are recorded as recoveries. Commercial loans and taxi medallion loans are placed on nonaccrual status, and all uncollected accrued interest is reversed, when there is doubt as to the collectability of interest or principal, or if loans are 90 days or more past due, unless management has determined that they are both well-secured and in the process of collection. Interest income on nonaccrual loans is generally recognized when cash is received, unless a determination has been made to apply all cash receipts to principal.

The Company may modify the contractual cash flow of loans in situations where borrowers are experiencing financial difficulties. The Company strives to identify borrowers in financial difficulty early and work with them to modify their loans to more affordable terms before they reach nonaccrual status. These modified terms may include interest rate reductions, principal forgiveness, term extensions, payment forbearance and other actions intended to minimize the economic loss to the Company and to avoid foreclosure or repossession of the collateral. For modifications where the Company forgives principal, the entire amount of such principal forgiveness is immediately charged off.

Loan collateral in process of foreclosure primarily includes taxi medallion loans that have reached 120 days past due and have been charged down to the net realizable value of the underlying collateral, in addition to consumer repossessed collateral in the process of being sold. For New York City taxi medallion loans in the process of foreclosure, the Company continued to utilize a net value of $79,500 when assessing net realizable value for these taxi medallion loans, despite fluctuating current transfer prices which may exceed that level from time to time. The "loan collateral in the process of foreclosure" designation reflects that the collection activities on these loans have transitioned from working with the borrower to the liquidation of the collateral securing the loans.
Loans Held For Sale

Loans Held for Sale

Loans held for sale consist of recreation loans and strategic partnership loans intended to be sold in the secondary market. Loans held for sale are recorded at the lower of amortized cost or fair value. Changes in fair value are recognized in non-interest income. For loans transferred into the held for sale classification from the held for investment classification, any allowance for credit losses previously recorded is reversed at the transfer date, and the loans are transferred at their amortized cost basis (which is reduced by any previous charge-offs, but excludes any allowance for credit losses). As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company did not recognize any fair value adjustments related to loans held for sale. Changes in fair value are recognized in non-interest income.
Allowance for Credit Losses

Allowance for Credit Losses

The Company follows Accounting Standards Update 2016-13, "Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments", or ASC 326, which requires recognition of lifetime expected losses using "reasonable and supportable" expectations about the future, referred to as the current expected credit loss, or CECL, methodology. For consumer loans, the Company uses historical delinquent loan performance, qualitative adjustments, and actual loss rates modified by quantitative adjustments based on macroeconomic factors over a twelve-month reasonable and supportable forecast period followed by a six month reversion period. For commercial loans, the Company assesses the historical impact that macroeconomic indicators have had on the loan portfolio, to determine an approximate allowance for credit losses. Unlike consumer loans, where loans may have similar performing characteristics, each commercial loan is unique. The Company evaluates each commercial loan for specific impairment with additional allowance for credit losses recognized as necessary. For taxi medallion loans, the Company individually evaluates each loan and establishes a reserve based on fair value of collateral less cost to sell.

The allowance is evaluated on a quarterly basis by management based on the collectability of the loans in light of historical experience, the nature and size of the loan portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrowers' ability to repay, estimated value of any underlying collateral, prevailing economic conditions, and excess concentration risks. This evaluation is inherently subjective, as it requires estimates, including those based on changes in economic conditions, that are susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available. Credit losses are deducted from the allowance, and subsequent recoveries are added back to the allowance. The Company has elected to exclude accrued interest from its measurement of the allowance for credit losses.
Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Goodwill is evaluated for impairment on an annual basis at December 31 of each year or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable. Other intangible assets with finite useful lives are amortized either on an accelerated or straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. Other intangible assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable.

As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company had goodwill of $150.8 million, all of which related to the recreation and home improvement lending segments. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company had intangible assets of $18.1 million and $19.1 million. The Company recognized $0.4 million and $1.1 million of amortization expense on the intangible assets for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024.

Management engaged an independent third-party expert to perform a quantitative assessment of goodwill for impairment at December 31, 2024. The third-party expert’s assessment determined that it was more likely than not that the fair value of both the recreation lending and home improvement lending segments individually were not less than the carrying value of each of these segments. Based upon inputs and analysis deemed appropriate by the third-party expert, the third-party expert concluded that a fair value premium existed in excess of carrying value with respect to the recreation and home improvement lending segments. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 the Company did not identify any triggering events that would require re-evaluation of goodwill impairment in either segment.

The table below presents the intangible assets as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024:

Fixed Assets

Fixed Assets

Fixed assets are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization, and are depreciated on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives of 3 to 10 years. Leasehold improvements are amortized on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the lease term or the estimated economic useful life of the improvement. Depreciation and amortization expense was $0.6 million and $1.9 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and $0.1 million and $0.3 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024.
Deferred Costs

Deferred Costs

Deferred financing costs represent costs associated with obtaining the Company’s borrowings, and are amortized on a straight-line basis over the lives of the related financing agreements and life of the respective pool. Amortization expense, included as interest expense in the consolidated statements of operations, was $1.1 million and $3.3 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and was $1.2 million and $3.0 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024. In addition, the Company capitalizes certain costs for transactions in the process of completion (other than business combinations), including those for potential investments, and the sourcing of other financing alternatives. Upon completion or termination of the transaction, any accumulated amounts are amortized against income over an appropriate period, or written off. The amount on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets related to deposits and borrowing facilities were $9.0 million and $8.2 million as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, and there were no capitalized transaction costs as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.
Income Taxes

Income Taxes

Income taxes are accounted for using the asset and liability approach in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes, or ASC 740. Deferred tax assets and liabilities reflect the impact of temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities and their tax basis and are stated at the enacted tax rates expected to apply in the year when taxes are actually paid or recovered. Deferred tax assets are also recorded for net operating losses, capital losses and any tax credit carryforwards. A valuation allowance is provided against a deferred tax asset when it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. All available evidence, both positive and negative, is considered to determine whether a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets is needed. Items considered in determining the Company’s valuation allowance include expectations of future earnings of the appropriate tax character, recent historical financial results, tax planning strategies, the length of statutory carryforward periods and the expected timing of the reversal of temporary differences. The Company recognizes tax benefits of uncertain tax positions only when the position is more likely than not to be sustained assuming examination by tax authorities. The Company records income tax related interest and penalties, if applicable, within current income tax expense.
Earnings Per Share (EPS)

Earnings Per Share (EPS)

Basic earnings per share are computed by dividing net income resulting from operations available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilution that could occur if option contracts to issue common stock were exercised, or if restricted stock vests, and has been computed after considering the weighted average dilutive effect of the Company’s stock options and restricted stock. The Company uses the treasury stock method to calculate diluted EPS, which is a method of recognizing the use of proceeds that could be obtained upon exercise of options and warrants, including unvested compensation expense related to the shares, in computing diluted EPS. It assumes that any proceeds would be used to purchase common stock at the average market price during the period. The table below presents the calculation of basic and diluted EPS.

Stock Compensation

Stock Compensation

The Company follows FASB ASC Topic 718, or ASC 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation, for its equity incentive, stock option, and restricted stock plans, and accordingly, the Company recognizes the expense of these grants as required. Stock-based employee compensation costs pertaining to stock options are reflected in net income resulting from operations for any new grants using the fair values established by usage of the Black-Scholes option pricing model, expensed over the vesting period of the underlying option. Stock-based employee compensation costs pertaining to restricted stock and performance stock units are reflected in net income resulting from operations for any new grants using the grant date fair value of the shares and units granted, expensed over the vesting period of the underlying stock.
Regulatory Capital

Regulatory Capital

The Bank subsidiary is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the FDIC and the Utah Department of Financial Institutions. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possible additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Bank’s financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Bank’s assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Bank’s capital amounts and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by the bank regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors.

FDIC-insured banks, including the Bank, are subject to certain federal laws, which impose various legal limitations on the extent to which banks may finance or otherwise supply funds to certain of their affiliates. In particular, the Bank is subject to certain restrictions on any extensions of credit to, or other covered transactions with, such as certain purchases of assets, the Company or its affiliates.

Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios as defined in the regulations (presented in the table below). Additionally, as conditions of granting the Bank’s application for federal deposit insurance, the FDIC ordered that the Tier 1 leverage capital to total assets ratio, as defined, be not less than 15%, a level which could affect the Bank's ability to pay dividends to the Company, and that an adequate allowance for credit losses be maintained. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Bank’s Tier 1 leverage ratio was considered well-capitalized. The Bank had excess Tier 1 leverage capital of $63.5 million over the 15% minimum required, which was $380.9 million based on our total assets as of September 30, 2025. On July 1, 2025, the Bank redeemed its Series F Preferred Stock, in its entirety, at an aggregate redemption price of $46.0 million. This redemption reduced Tier 1 leverage capital and the correlated excess Tier 1 leverage capital above the 15% minimum interest required. The Bank’s actual capital amounts and ratios and the regulatory minimum ratios are presented in the following table.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes, or Topic 740: Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. The main objective of this update is to provide transparency about income tax information through improvements to income tax disclosures primarily related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid information. The amendments in this update are effective for the annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company does not expect this update to have a material impact on the financial statements.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement, Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses. This update requires additional disaggregation of specific types of expenses within the notes to consolidated financial statements on an annual and interim basis. In January 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-01 to clarify that all public business entities are required to adopt ASU 2024-03 beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. The Company is assessing the impact of the update on the accompanying financial statements.
