Guidance and outlook

Forward-looking statements, 10-Q filed Nov 2, 2026

• • our ability to innovate, to anticipate the needs of current or future customers, to successfully compete, to increase or hold market share in changing competitive environments, or to respond to pricing or other competitive pressures;
• Consumer mortgage originations ceased during the second quarter of 2025, which has and will continue to result in a gradual run-off of our consumer mortgage loan portfolio.
• While we expect most of these vehicles to continue to be sold through dealerships and automotive retailers with whom we have established relationships, we also partner with automotive manufacturers that use a direct-to-consumer model.
• Additionally, we have an energy and infrastructure vertical that finances large-scale energy and infrastructure projects.
• Our baseline forecast utilized in calculating the quantitative allowance for loan losses as of September 30, 2026, anticipated the unemployment rate peaking at approximately 4.4% in the first quarter of 2027, before reverting to the historical mean of approximately 5.7% by the third quarter of 2029.
• Additionally, our baseline forecast anticipated GDP growth decreasing to 1.9% as measured on a quarter-over-quarter seasonally adjusted annualized rate basis in 2028, before reverting to the historical mean of approximately 2.1% by the first quarter of 2029, and increases in new light vehicle sales on a seasonally adjusted annualized rate basis to a peak of more than 16 million units in the third quarter of 2027,…
• In addition, uncertainty around the scope and timing of changes to fiscal, regulatory, and trade policies, as well as the impacts of legislative and regulatory developments, could create volatility in our baseline forecasts, particularly with respect to real GDP growth, inflation, unemployment, vehicle sales, and other consumer measures, which could materially impact our risk profile.
• We carefully monitor credit losses and trends in credit losses relative to expected credit losses at contract inception.
• We closely monitor our loan performance and profitability in light of forecasted economic conditions and manage credit risk and expectations of losses in the portfolio.
• We perform quarterly analyses of the consumer automotive, consumer mortgage, consumer other, and commercial portfolios to assess the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses based on historical, current, and anticipated trends.
• Our quantitatively determined allowance under CECL is impacted by certain forecasted economic factors as further described in Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
• Through September 30, 2026, forecasted economic variables incorporated into our quantitative allowance processes were updated to include the current macroeconomic environment and our future expectations reflecting slow GDP growth in the near term.
