Note 12 — Securitized Debt at Amortized Cost and Securitized Debt at Fair Value

As of June 30, 2026, the Company is the sole beneficial interest holder of 38 Trusts, which are variable interest entities included in the consolidated financial statements. The securitization transactions are accounted for as secured borrowings under U.S. GAAP. The securities are subject to redemption by the Company when the stated principal balance is less than a certain percentage, ranging from 10% to 30% of the original stated principal balance of loans at issuance. As a result, the actual maturity dates of the securities issued could be earlier than their respective stated maturity dates, ranging from March 2030 through May 2056.
