ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK. 

We consider the principal types of risk in our business activities to be fluctuations in interest rates, the ability to raise funds (deposits, debt, and or equity) to fund our operations, and the availability of the secondary market for our SBA loans. Risk management systems and procedures are designed to identify and analyze our risks, to set appropriate policies and limits and to continually monitor these risks and limits by means of reliable administrative and information systems and other policies and programs.

The Company’s interest rate profile on loans is based on a mix of fixed and variable rates. The same is true for its sources of funding (deposits, warehouse lines of credit, securitization trust notes, public notes, etc.). Some of our assets and liabilities are match funded, meaning that the interest rate and duration profiles are closely linked. Managing interest rate risk with matched funding means that movements in interest rates are expected to largely offset between income from assets and expenses on liabilities. For the remainder of our balance sheet, we largely take a portfolio approach to managing interest rate and liquidity risk that is inherently imprecise.

The Company depends on the availability of secondary market purchasers of our loans held for sale, but primarily for the guaranteed portions of SBA loans and the premium received on such sales to support its lending operations. Sale prices for guaranteed portions of SBA 7(a) loans could be negatively impacted by market conditions, in particular a higher interest rate environment, which typically lead to higher prepayments during the period, resulting in lower sale prices in the secondary market. A reduction in the price of guaranteed portions of SBA 7(a) loans or disruptions in the markets to which we sell could negatively impact our business.

The Company has cash and cash equivalents, which includes cash and due from banks, restricted cash, and interest bearing deposits in banks, of $294.1 million. We do not purchase or hold derivative financial instruments for trading purposes. All of our transactions are conducted in U.S. dollars and we
