 $92.2 million, or 42%, for the three and six months ended December 31, 2024, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2023, primarily driven by growth in the volume of loans held for investment. Loans held for investment as of December 31, 2024 was $6.8 billion, an increase of $1.6 billion, or 30%, as compared to the same periods in 2023. The allowance for credit losses as a percentage of loans held for investment increased from 5.0% as of December 31, 2023 to 5.4% as of December 31, 2024.
