Reconciliation to GAAP Measures: 
 
  
 
The Company's consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with 
generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") are referred to as its 
"reported" financial statements. Loans included in securitization transactions 
which qualified as sales under GAAP have been removed from the Company's 
"reported" balance sheet. However, servicing fees, finance charges, and other 
fees, net of charge-offs, and interest paid to investors of securitizations are 
recognized as servicing and securitizations income on the "reported" income 
statement. 
  
 
 
  
 
The Company's "managed" consolidated financial statements reflect adjustments 
made related to effects of securitization transactions qualifying as sales 
under GAAP. The Company generates earnings from its "managed" loan portfolio 
which includes both the on-balance sheet loans and off-balance sheet loans. The 
Company's "managed" income statement takes the components of the servicing and 
securitizations income generated from the securitized portfolio and distributes 
the revenue and expense to appropriate income statement line items from which 
it originated. For this reason, the Company believes the "managed" consolidated 
financial statements and related managed metrics to be useful to stakeholders.
