FASB”) Staff Q&A Topic 326, No. 1. This method requires the Company to reference historical loan loss data across a comparable data set and apply such loss rate to each loan investment over its expected remaining term, taking into consideration expected economic conditions over the relevant timeframe. The Company considers loans that are both (i) expected to be substantially repaid through the operation or sale of the underlying collateral and (ii) for which the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty, to be “collateral-dependent” loans. For loans that the Company determines that foreclosure of the collateral is probable, the Company measures the expected losses based on the difference between the fair value of the collateral less costs to sell and the amortized cost basis of the loan as of the measurement date. For collateral-dependent loans with respect to which the Company determines foreclosure is not probable, the Company applies a practical expedient to estimate expected losses using the difference between the collateral’s fair value (less costs to sell the asset if repayment is expected through the sale of the collateral) and the amortized cost basis of the loan. The Company may use other acceptable alternative approaches in the future depending on, among other factors, the type of loan, underlying collateral and availability of relevant historical market loan loss data. Quarterly, the Company evaluates the risk of all loans receivable and assigns a risk rating based on a variety of factors, which are grouped as follows: (i) loan and credit structure, including the as-is loan-to-value (“LTV”) ratio and structural features; (ii) quality and stability of real estate value and operating cash flow, including debt yield, dynamics of the geography, local market, physical condition and stability of cash flow; and (iii) quality, experience and financial condition of the borrower.Based on a 5-point scale, the Company’s loans receivable are rated “1” through “5,” from least risk to greatest risk, respectively, which ratings are defined as follows:1-Acceptable — These are assets of high quality; 2-Other Assets Especially Mentioned (“OAEM”) — These are assets that are generally profitable but exhibit potential weakness or weaknesses, including, but not limited to, no significant pay history as detailed below for loans originated generally within the last year. Such weaknesses could result in deterioration if not corrected;3-Substandard — These assets generally have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses which could hinder collection efforts; 4-Doubtful — These assets have weakness or weaknesses similar to substandard loans; however, the
