Purchased Credit-Deteriorated Loans ("PCD") - PCD loans are defined as a loan or group of loans that have experienced more-than-insignificant credit deterioration since origination. The following table presents the recorded investment of those loans as of September 30, 2025.

The majority of these loans are associated with multifamily properties located in the five boroughs of New York City, most of which are entirely or predominantly rent-regulated. This specific pool is subject to unique stressors, primarily due to the 2019 New York rent laws, which restricted rent increases while operating in an environment of escalating expenses.

 

Credit Quality Indicators - The Company continuously monitors the credit quality of its loans receivable. In addition to its internal monitoring, the Company utilizes the services of a third-party loan review firm to periodically validate the credit quality of its loans receivable on a sample basis. Credit quality is monitored by reviewing certain credit quality indicators. Assets classified as “Pass” are deemed to possess average to superior credit quality, requiring no more than normal attention. Assets classified as “Special Mention” have generally acceptable credit quality yet possess higher risk characteristics/circumstances than satisfactory assets. Such conditions include strained liquidity, slow pay, stale financial statements, or other conditions that require more stringent attention from the lending staff. These conditions, if not corrected, may weaken the credit quality or inadequately protect the Company’s credit position at some future date. Assets are classified as "Substandard” if the asset has a well-defined weakness that requires management’s attention to a greater degree than for loans classified as special mention. Such weakness, if left uncorrected, could possibly result in the compromised ability of the loan to perform to contractual requirements. An asset is classified as “Doubtful” if it is inadequately protected by the net worth and/or paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral, if any, that secures the obligation. Assets classified as doubtful include assets for which there is a “distinct possibility” that a degree of loss will occur if the inadequacies are not corrected.

    

We evaluate whether a modification, extension or renewal of a loan is a current period origination in accordance with GAAP. Generally, loans up for renewal are subject to a full credit evaluation before the renewal is granted and such loans are considered current period originations for purposes of the table below. The following table presents loans by origination, risk designation and gross charge-offs as of and during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 (dollars in thousands):

There were five and seven modifications to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively.

 

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and September 30, 2024, the Company had no commitments to lend additional funds to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty for which the Company modified the terms of the loans in the form of principal forgiveness, an interest rate reduction, an other-than-insignificant payment delay, or a term extension during the current period.

 

There was one loan to a borrower experiencing financial difficulty that had a payment default during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and which was modified in the twelve months prior to that default. The one loan was a $323 thousand commercial loan modified in October 2024 that went into forbearance, reducing the monthly payment amount by $6 thousand. At this time, the ACL includes a full reserve against this loan. There were no such loans during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024. Default is determined at 90 or more days past due, upon charge-off, or upon foreclosure. Modified loans in default are individually evaluated for the ACL or if the modified loan is deemed uncollectible, the loan, or a portion of the loan, is written off and the ACL is adjusted accordingly.
