Note 8 Loans

For a summary of the accounting policies related to loans, interest recognition and allowance for loan losses refer to Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies of this Form 10-K.

The Corporation has presented the loans covered by the loss-sharing agreements with the FDIC separately as “covered loans” since the risk of loss was significantly different than those not covered under the loss-sharing agreements, due to the loss protection provided by the FDIC. As discussed in Note 10, on May 22, 2018, the Corporation entered into a Termination Agreement with the FDIC to terminate all loss-share arrangements in connection with the Westernbank FDIC-assisted transaction. As a result of the Termination Agreement, assets that were covered by the loss share agreement, including covered loans in the amount of approximately $514.6 million as of March 31, 2018, were reclassified as non-covered. The Corporation now recognizes entirely all future credit losses, expenses, gains, and recoveries related to the formerly covered assets with no offset due to or from the FDIC.

As previously disclosed in Note 4, as a result of the Reliable Transaction completed on August 1, 2018, Popular Auto, LLC, acquired approximately $1.6 billion in retail auto loans and $341 million in primarily auto-related commercial loans. These loans are included in the information presented in this note.

During the year ended December 31, 2018, the Corporation recorded purchases (including repurchases) of mortgage loans amounting to $624 million and consumer loans of $205 million, compared to purchases (including repurchases) of mortgage loans of $460 million, consumer loans of $311 million, commercial loans of $2 million and leases of $2 million, during the year ended December 31, 2017.

The Corporation performed whole-loan sales involving approximately $59 million of residential mortgage loans and $30 million of commercial loans during the year ended December 31, 2018 (December 31, 2017 - $64 million of residential mortgage loans). Also, during the year ended December 31, 2018, the Corporation securitized approximately $413 million of mortgage loans into Government National Mortgage Association (“GNMA”) mortgage-backed securities and $94 million of mortgage loans into Federal National Mortgage Association (“FNMA”) mortgage-backed securities, compared to $376 million and $86 million, respectively, during the year ended December 31, 2017.

At December 31, 2018, mortgage loans held-in-portfolio include $1.4 billion of loans insured by the Federal Housing Administration (“FHA”), or guaranteed by the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (“VA”) of which $598 million are 90 days or more past due, including $134 million of loans rebooked under the GNMA buyback option, discussed below (December 31, 2017 - $1.8 billion, $1.2 billion and $840 million, respectively). Within this portfolio, loans in a delinquency status of 90 days or more are reported as accruing loans as opposed to non-performing since the principal repayment is insured. These balances include $283 million of residential mortgage loans in Puerto Rico that are no longer accruing interest as of December 31, 2018 (December 31, 2017 - $178 million). Additionally, the Corporation has approximately $69 million in reverse mortgage loans in Puerto Rico which are guaranteed by FHA, but which are currently not accruing interest at December 31, 2018 (December 31, 2017 - $58 million).

Loans with a delinquency status of 90 days past due as of December 31, 2018 include $134 million in loans previously pooled into GNMA securities (December 31, 2017 - $840 million). Under the GNMA program, issuers such as BPPR have the option but not the obligation to repurchase loans that are 90 days or more past due. For accounting purposes, these loans subject to the repurchase option are required to be reflected on the financial statements of the Bank with an offsetting liability.

Loans acquired with deteriorated credit quality accounted for under ASC 310-30

The following provides information of loans acquired with evidence of credit deterioration as of the acquisition date, accounted for under the guidance of ASC 310-30.

The outstanding principal balance of acquired loans accounted pursuant to ASC Subtopic 310-30, amounted to $2.2 billion at December 31, 2018 (December 31, 2017 - $2.5 billion). The carrying amount of these loans consisted of loans determined to be impaired at the time of acquisition, which are accounted for in accordance with ASC Subtopic 310-30 (“credit impaired loans”), and loans that were considered to be performing at the acquisition date, accounted for by analogy to ASC Subtopic 310-30 (“non-credit impaired loans”).

The following table provides the carrying amount of acquired loans accounted for under ASC 310-30 by portfolio at December 31, 2018 and 2017.

At December 31, 2018, none of the acquired loans accounted for under ASC Subtopic 310-30 were considered non-performing loans. Therefore, interest income, through accretion of the difference between the carrying amount of the loans and the expected cash flows, was recognized on all acquired loans.

Changes in the carrying amount and the accretable yield for the loans accounted pursuant to the ASC Subtopic 310-30, for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, were as follows:
