 Loans are generally only renewed or extended if the loan is not in default and satisfies the Company’s underwriting criteria. Loan fee income is recognized as interest income at origination or amendment given the Company’s election of the fair value option. Both interest and loan fee income earned on mortgage loans is reported in interest income in the consolidated statements of operations.Residential Mortgage Loan Repurchases — Newrez, as approved issuer of Ginnie Mae mortgage-backed securities (“MBS”), originate and securitize government-insured residential mortgage loans. As issuer of Ginnie Mae-guaranteed securitizations, Newrez has the unilateral right to repurchase loans from the securitizations when they are delinquent for more than 90 days.

This qualitative assessment evaluates various events and circumstances, such as macro-economic conditions, industry and market conditions, cost factors, relevant events and financial trends, that may impact a reporting unit's fair value. Using this qualitative assessment, the Company determines whether it is more likely than not the reporting unit's fair value exceeds its carrying value.
