| (1) References to “30+ delinquency rate” are to over-30 day loan delinquencies as a percentage of period-end loan receivables. References to “net charge-off rate” are to net charge-offs (annualized) as a percentage of average loan receivables, including held for sale. Net charge-offs consist of uncollectible principal balances, net of recovered amounts. Uncollectible interest and fees receivables are written off as a reduction of interest and fees on loans. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| (2) Charge-offs are executed on charge-off cycle dates which occur on various days during each calendar month. The number of different charge-off cycle dates in each month varies based on such factors as the calendar and the timing of billing cycles. As a result, the amount of charged-off loan receivables can vary between monthly periods with no corresponding change in the performance of the portfolio. The following table sets forth the number of different charge-off cycle dates for our consumer credit card loan receivables, which represent greater than 90% of total period end loan receivables at April 30, 2026, for the calendar months indicated. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| (3) Represents adjustment to allocate recoveries, including debt sales, evenly across the three calendar months of each respective quarterly reporting period. The adjustments for periods other than for the last month of each calendar quarter incorporate estimated recoveries for the applicable full quarterly reporting period. Such estimates are subject to change within each applicable quarter and may differ from actual quarterly results. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| (4) Adjusted net charge-off rate represents adjusted net charge-offs as a percentage of average loan receivables, including held for sale. Adjusted net charge-offs are a non-GAAP financial measure that include the 'recovery adjustment' defined above. We believe the presentation of the adjusted net charge-off rate is useful to investors as it represents a monthly measure which is more indicative of both our quarterly and annual net charge-off rates. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
