AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED
 
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
 
NOTE 1 – The Company
 
 
Marlin Business Services Corp. (the “Company”) is a nationwide provider
 
of credit products and services to small businesses. The
products and services we provide to our customers include loans and
 
leases for the acquisition of commercial equipment (including
Commercial Vehicle
 
Group (“CVG”) assets which now incorporates Transportation
 
Finance Group (“TFG”)) and working capital
loans. The Company was incorporated in the Commonwealth
 
of Pennsylvania on August 5, 2003. In May 2000,
 
we established
AssuranceOne, Ltd., a Bermuda-based, wholly-owned captive
 
insurance subsidiary (“Assurance One”), which enables us to reinsure
the property insurance coverage for the equipment financed by Marlin
 
Leasing Corporation (“MLC”) and Marlin Business Bank
(“MBB”) for our small business customers. Effective
 
March 12, 2008, the Company opened MBB, a commercial
 
bank chartered by
the State of Utah and a member of the Federal Reserve System.
 
MBB serves as the Company’s
 
primary funding source through its
issuance of Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”)
 
-insured deposits.
 
In January 2017, we completed the acquisition of
Horizon Keystone Financial (“HKF”), an equipment leasing company which
 
primarily identifies and sources lease and loan contracts
for investor partners for a fee.
 
On September 19, 2018, the Company completed the acquisition of Fleet
 
Financing Resources
(“FFR”), a leading provider of equipment finance credit products specializing
 
in the leasing and financing of both new and used
commercial vehicles, with an emphasis on livery equipment and
 
other types of commercial vehicles used by small businesses.
 
 
References to the “Company,”
 
“Marlin,” “Registrant,” “we,” “us” and “our” herein refer to
 
Marlin Business Services Corp. and its
wholly-owned subsidiaries, unless the context otherwise requires.
 
 
NOTE 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
 
 
Basis of financial statement presentation.
 
The unaudited consolidated financial statements include
 
the accounts of the Company and
its wholly-owned subsidiaries. MLC and MBB are managed together
 
as a single business segment and are aggregated for financial
reporting purposes as they exhibit similar economic characteristics,
 
share the same leasing and loan portfolio and have a single
consolidated product offering platform. All intercompany
 
accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
 
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements present
 
the Company’s financial position
 
at June 30, 2020 and the
results of operations for the three-
 
and six -month periods ended June 30, 2020 and 2019
 
,
 
and cash flows for the six-month periods
ended June 30, 2020 and 2019.
 
In management’s opinion, the
 
unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments,
which include normal and recurring adjustments, necessary for a
 
fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations
 
for
the interim periods presented.
 
These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be
 
read in conjunction with the consolidated
financial statements and note disclosures included in the Company’s
 
Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019,
 
filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 13,
 
2020. The consolidated results and statements of cash flows for these
interim financial statements are not necessarily indicative of the results
 
of operations or cash flows for the respective full years or
 
any
other period.
 
 
Use of Estimates.
 
These unaudited consolidated financial statements
 
require management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
 
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of
 
the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses
 
during the reporting period. Estimates are used when accounting
 
for
income recognition, the residual values of leased equipment,
 
the allowance for credit losses, deferred initial direct costs and fees, late
fee receivables, the fair value of financial instruments, estimated
 
losses from insurance program, and income taxes. Actual results
could differ from those estimates.
 
 
Provision for income taxes.
 
 
Our statutory tax rate was
25.4
% for the three months ended June 30, 2020.
 
For the three-month period ended June 30, 2020, the
effective tax rate was
18.9
%, driven by an interim reporting limitation on the amount of tax benefits
 
that can be recognized under
Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 740,
Income Taxes
.
 
 
For the six-month period ended June 30, 2020, the effective
 
tax rate in recognizing our benefit was
33.2
%, driven by a $
3.2
 
million
discrete benefit, resulting from certain provisions in the Coronavirus
 
Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”) that
allow for a remeasurement of our federal net operating losses.
 
The Company has filed for a refund of carryback net operating losses
 
 
 
-11-
 
as permitted under the CARES act.
 
The impact to our effective rate from that benefit was partially
 
offset by the limitation on interim
tax benefits, as discussed above.
 
For the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2019,
 
our effective tax rates were
24.4
% and
24.1
%, respectively, and there were
no significant reconciling items from our statutory rate.
 
Significant Accounting Policies.
 
There have been no significant changes to our Significant
 
Accounting Policies as described in our
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December
 
31, 2019, other than the adoption of ASU 2016-13 as described
 
below.
 
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards
.
 
 
Credit Losses.
 
In June 2016, the FASB
 
issued ASU 2016-13,
Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic
 
326): Measurement of
Credit Losses on Financial Instruments
, which changes the methodology for evaluating impairment
 
of most financial instruments.
This guidance was subsequently amended by ASU 2018-19,
Codification Improvements,
 
ASU 2019-04,
Codification Improvements
,
ASU 2019-05,
Targeted
 
Transition Relief,
ASU 2019-10,
Effective Dates,
and ASU 2019-11,
Codification Improvements
.
 
These
ASUs are referred to collectively as “CECL”.
 
CECL replaces the probable, incurred loss model with a measurement
 
of expected credit losses for the contractual term of the
Company’s current portfolio of loans
 
and leases.
 
Under CECL, an
 
allowance, or estimate of credit losses, is recognized immediately
upon the origination of a loan or lease and will be adjusted in
 
each subsequent reporting period.
 
This estimate of credit losses takes
into consideration all cashflows the Company expects to receive or
 
derive from the pools of contracts, including recoveries after
charge-off, amounts related to initial direct cost
 
and origination costs net of fees deferred, accrued interest receivable
 
and certain
future cashflows from residual assets. The Company had previously
 
recognized residual income within Fee Income in its Consolidated
Statements
 
of Operations; the adoption of CECL results in such residual income
 
being captured as a component of the activity of the
allowance. The Company’s poli
 
cy for charging off contracts against the
 
allowance, and non-accrual policy are not impacted by the
adoption of CECL.
 
 
The provision for credit losses recognized in the Consolidated
 
Statements of Operations under CECL will be primarily driven by
originations, offset by the reversal of the allowance
 
for any contracts sold, plus any amounts of realized cashflows,
 
such as charge-
offs, above or below our modeled estimates, plus adjustments
 
for changes in estimate each subsequent reporting period.
 
 
Estimating an allowance under CECL requires the Company to
 
develop and maintain a consistent systematic methodology to
 
measure
the estimated credit losses inherent in its current portfolio,
 
over the entire life of the contracts.
 
The Company assesses the appropriate
collective, or pool, basis to use to aggregate its portfolio based
 
on the existence of similar risk characteristics and determined that its
measurement begins by separately considering segments of financing
 
receivables, which is similar to how it has historically analyzed
its allowance for credit losses: (i) equipment finance lease and loan;
 
(ii) working capital loans; (iii) commercial vehicles “CVG”;
 
and
(iv) Community Reinvestment Act and Paycheck Protectio
 
n
 
loans.
 
However, these classes of receivables are
 
further disaggregated
into pools of loans based on risk characteristics that may include:
 
lease or loan type, origination channel, and internal credit
 
score
(which is a measurement that combines many risk characteristics,
 
including loan size, external credit scores, existence of
 
a guarantee,
and various characteristics of the borrower’s business).
 
 
As part of our analysis of expected credit losses, we may analyze
 
contracts on an individual basis, or create additional pools of
contracts, in situations where such loans exhibit unique risk characteristics
 
and are no longer expected to experience similar losses to
the rest of their pool.
 
 
As part of its estimate of expected credit losses, specific to each
 
measurement date, management considers relevant qualitative and
quantitative factors to assess whether the historical loss experience
 
being referenced should be adjusted to better reflect the risk
characteristics of the current portfolio and the expected future
 
loss experience for the life of these contracts.
 
This assessment
incorporates all available information relevant to considering the collectability
 
of its current portfolio, including considering economic
and business conditions, default trends, changes in its portfolio
 
composition, changes in its lending policies and practices, among
 
other
internal and external factors.
 
 
The Company adopted the guidance in these ASUs, effective
 
January 1, 2020, applying changes resulting from the application
 
of the
new standard’s provisions as a
 
cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of
 
the beginning of the first reporting period in
which the guidance is effective (i.e., modified retrospective
 
approach).

In addition, as a result of adoption this standard, future measurements of
 
the impairment of our investment securities will
 
incorporate
the guidance in these ASUs, including analyzing any decline

CRA loans are comprised of loans originated under a line of credit to satisfy its obligations under the Community Reinvestment Act of 1977
(“CRA”).
(2)
 
Equipment loans are comprised of Equipment Finance Agreements, Installment Purchase Agreements and other loans.
 
In 2020, the Company was a participating lender,
 
offering loans to its customers that are guaranteed under
 
the Small Business
Administration’s (SBA’s)
 
Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”).
 
The SBA pays lender fees for processing PPP loans, and the
Company will recognize the fee income associated with originating
 
these loans over the life of the contracts on the effective
 
interest
method.
 
 
In response to COVID-19, starting in mid-March 2020,
 
the Company instituted a payment deferral contract modification
 
program in
order to assist our small-business customers.
 
See Note 6, “Allowance for Credit Losses” for discussion of that program.
 
At June 30, 2020, $
50.5
 
million in net investment in leases were pledged as collateral
 
for the Company’s outstanding asset-backed
securitization balance and $
56.3
 
million in net investment in leases were pledged as collateral for
 
the secured borrowing capacity at
the Federal Reserve Discount Window.
 
 
The amount of deferred initial direct costs and origination costs
 
net of fees deferred were $
17.9
 
million and $
20.5
 
million as of June
30, 2020 and December 31, 2019,
 
respectively. Initial direct
 
costs are netted in unearned income and are amortized to income using
the effective interest method.
 
ASU 2016-02 limited the types of costs that qualify for deferral
 
as initial direct costs for leases, which
reduced the deferral of unit lease costs and resulted in an increase
 
in current period expense. Origination costs are netted in
commercial loans and are amortized to income using the effective
 
interest method. At June 30, 2020 and December 31,
 
2019, $
23.1
million and $
23.4
 
million, respectively, of the estimated
 
residual value of equipment retained on our Consolidated Balance
 
Sheets was

Portfolio Sales
The Company originates certain lease and loans for sale to
 
third parties, based on their underwriting criteria and specifications.
 
In
addition, the Company may periodically enter into agreements to sell certain
 
leases and loans that were originated for investment to
third parties.
 
For agreements that qualify as a sale where the Company has
 
continuing involvement through servicing, the Company recognizes
 
a
servicing liability at its initial fair value, and then amortizes the liability
 
over the expected servicing period based on the effective yield
method, within Other income in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
 
The Company’s sale agreements
 
typically do not contain
a stated servicing fee, so the initial value recognized as a servicing
 
liability is a reduction of the proceeds received and is based
 
on an
estimate of the fair value attributable to that obligation.
 
The Company’s servicing liability
 
was $
1.9
 
million and $
2.5
 
million as of
June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively,
 
and is recognized within Accounts payable and accrued expenses
 
in the
Consolidated Balance Sheets.
 
As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the portfolio
 
of leases and loans serviced for others was
$
296
 
million and $
340
 
million, respectively.
 
In addition, the Company
 
may have continuing involvement in contracts sold through any recourse
 
obligations that may include
customary representations and warranties or specific recourse
 
provisions. The Company’s reserve
 
for expected losses from recourse
obligations was $
0.8
 
million as of June 30, 2020 and $
0.4
 
million as of December 31, 2019.

NOTE 6 – Allowance for Credit Losses
 
 
For 2019 and prior, we maintained an allowance
 
for credit losses at an amount sufficient to absorb
 
losses inherent in our existing lease
and loan portfolios as of the reporting dates based on our estimate of probable
 
incurred net credit losses in accordance with the
Contingencies Topic
 
of the FASB ASC.
 
 
Effective January 1, 2020, we
 
adopted
ASU 2016-13,
Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic
 
326): Measurement of Credit
Losses on Financial Instruments
 
(“CECL”)
,
 
which changed our accounting policy and estimated allowance.
 
CECL replaces the
probable, incurred loss model with a measurement of expected
 
credit losses for the contractual term of the Company’s
 
current
portfolio of loans and leases.
 
After the adoption of CECL, an allowance, or estimate of credit
 
losses, is recognized immediately upon
the origination of a loan or lease and will be adjusted in each
 
subsequent reporting period.
 
See further discussion of the adoption of
this accounting standard and a summary of the Company’s
 
revised Accounting Policy for Allowance for Credit Losses
 
in Note 2,
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.
 
Detailed discussion of our measurement of allowance under CECL
 
as of the adoption
date and June 30, 2020 is below.

The Company adopted ASU 2016-13,
Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic
 
326): Measurement of Credit
 
Losses on
Financial Instruments
, which changed our accounting policy and estimated allowance,
 
effective January 1, 2020.
 
See further
discussion in Note 2, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies”,
 
and below.
 
Estimate of Current Expected Credit Losses
 
(CECL)
Starting with the January 1, 2020 adoption of CECL, the Company recognizes
 
an allowance, or estimate of credit losses, immediately
upon the origination of a loan or lease, and that estimate will
 
be reassessed in each subsequent reporting period.
 
This estimate of
credit losses takes into consideration all cashflows the Company
 
expects to receive or derive from the pools of contracts, including
recoveries after charge-off, amounts related to
 
initial direct cost and origination costs net of fees deferred,
 
accrued interest receivable
and certain future cashflows from residual assets.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
-21-
 
As part of its estimate of expected credit losses, specific to each
 
measurement date, management considers relevant qualitative and
quantitative factors to assess whether the historical loss experience
 
being referenced should be adjusted to better reflect the risk
characteristics of the current portfolio and the expected future
 
loss experience for the life of these contracts.
 
This assessment
incorporates all available information relevant to considering the collectability
 
of its current portfolio, including considering economic
and business conditions, default trends, changes in its portfolio
 
composition, changes in its lending policies and practices, among
 
other
internal and external factors.
 
Current Measurement
 
The Company selected a vintage loss model as the approach to
 
estimate and measure its expected credit losses for all portfolio
segments and for all pools, primarily because the timing of the losses
 
realized has been consistent across historical vintages, such
 
that
the company is able to develop a predictable and reliable
 
loss curve for each separate portfolio segment.
 
The vintage model assigns
loans to vintages by origination date, measures our historical
 
average actual loss and recovery experience within that vintage, develops
a loss curve based on the averages of all vintages, and predicts (or
 
forecasts) the remaining expected net losses of the current portfolio
by applying the expected net loss rates to the remaining life of each open
 
vintage.
Additional detail specific to the measurement of each portfolio
 
segment under CECL as of January 1, 2020 and June 30,
 
2020 is
summarized below.
 
Equipment Finance:
 
Equipment Finance consists of Equipment Finance Agreements, Installment
 
Purchase Agreements and other leases and loans.
 
The risk characteristics referenced to develop pools of Equipment
 
Finance leases and loans are based on internally developed
credit score ratings, which is a measurement that combines many risk
 
characteristics, including loan size, external credit
scores, existence of a guarantee, and various characteristics of the borrower’s
 
business.
 
In addition, the Company separately
measured a pool of true leases so that any future cashflo
 
ws from residuals could be used to partially offset the allowance for
that pool.
 
The Company’s measurement of
 
Equipment Finance pools is based on its own historical loss experience.
 
The Company
analyzed the correlation of its own loss data from 2004 to 2019
 
against various economic variables in order to determine an
approach for reasonable and supportable forecast.
 
The Company then selected certain economic variables to
 
reference for its
forecast about the future, specifically the unemployment rate
 
and growth in business bankruptcy.
 
The Company’s
methodology reverts from the forecast data to its own loss data
 
adjusted for the long-term average of the referenced economic
variables, on a straight-line basis.
At each reporting date, the Company considers current conditions, including
 
changes in portfolio composition or the business
environment, when determining the appropriate measurement
 
of current expected credit losses for the remaining life of its
portfolio.
 
As of the January 1, 2020 adoption date, the Company utilized a 12
 
-month forecast period and 12-month straight-
line reversion period, based on its initial assessment of the appropriate
 
timing.
 
However, starting with the March 31,
 
2020 measurement, the Company adjusted
 
its model to reference a 6-month forecast
period and 12-month straight line reversion period.
 
The change in the length of the reasonable and supportable
 
forecast was
based on observed market volatility in late March,
 
and the Company continues to reference a 6-month forecast
 
period at June
30, 2020 due to continuing uncertainty of the duration and level of impact
 
of the COVID-19 virus on the macroeconomic
environment and the Company’s portfolio,
 
including uncertainty about the forecasted impact of COVID
 
-19 that was
underlying its economic forecasted variables beyond a 6-month period.
 
The forecast adjustment to the Equipment Finance
portfolio segment resulted in the recognition of provision of $
10.1
 
million and $
20.9
 
million for the three and six months
ended June 30, 2020, respectively.
 
After completing the forecast adjustment, the Company assessed
 
the output of the Equipment Finance reserve estimate and
increased the reserve for a $
3.4
 
million qualitative adjustment as of June 30,
 
2020 based on an analysis that incorporates the
current forecasted peak levels of unemployment and business bankruptcy.
Working Capital:
 
The risk characteristics referenced to develop pools of Working
 
Capital loans is based on origination channel, separately
considering an estimation of loss for direct-sourced loans versus loans
 
that were sourced from a broker.
 
The Company’s
historical relationship with its direct-sourced customers typically
 
results in a lower level of credit risk than loans sourced
from brokers where the Company has no prior credit relationship
 
with the customer.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
-22-
 
The Company’s measurement of
 
Working Capital
 
pools is based on its own historical loss experience.
 
The Company’s
Working Capital loans
 
typically range from 6 – 12 months of duration. For this portfolio
 
segment, due to the short contract
duration, the Company did not define a standard methodology to
 
adjust its loss estimate based on a forecast of economic
conditions.
 
However, the Company will continually
 
assess through a qualitative adjustment whether there are changes in
conditions and the environment that will impact the performance
 
of these loans that should be considered for qualitative
adjustment.
At each reporting date, the Company considers current conditions, including
 
changes in portfolio composition or the business
environment, when determining the appropriate measurement
 
of current expected credit losses for the remaining life of its
portfolio.
 
As of the January 1, 2020 adoption date, there was no qualitative adjustment to
 
the Working
 
Capital portfolio.
 
However, starting with its March 31,
 
2020
 
measurement, driven by the elevated risk of credit loss driven by market
conditions due to COVID-19, the Company developed alternate
 
scenarios for credit loss based on an analysis of the
characteristics of its portfolio,
 
considering different timing and magnitudes of potential
 
exposures.
 
The Company determined
its most likely expectation for credit losses for the Working
 
Capital segment based on the increased risk to its borrowers and
increased risk to the collectability of its portfolio from COVID
 
-19.
 
Based on that analysis, the Working
 
Capital reserve was
increased and the Company recognized provision associated with
 
qualitative adjustments of $
1.5
 
million and $
7.0
 
million for
the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively.
Commercial Vehicle
 
Group (CVG):
 
Transportation-related equipment leases and
 
loans are analyzed as a single pool, as the Company did not consider
 
any risk
characteristics to be significant enough to warrant disaggregating this
 
population.
 
The Company’s measurement of
 
CVG pools is based on a combination of its own historical
 
loss experience and industry loss
data from an external source. The Company has limited history of this
 
product, and therefore the Company determined it was
appropriate to develop an estimate based on a combination of
 
internal and industry data.
 
Due to the Company’s limited
history of performance of this segment, and the limited size of
 
the portfolio, the Company did not develop a standard
methodology to adjust its loss estimate based on a forecast of economic
 
conditions.
 
However, the Company will continually
assess through a qualitative adjustment whether there are changes
 
in conditions and the environment that will impact the
performance of these loans that should be considered for
 
qualitative adjustment.
At each reporting date, the Company considers current conditions, including
 
changes in portfolio composition or the business
environment, when determining the appropriate measurement
 
for the remaining life of the current portfolio.
 
As of the
January 1, 2020 adoption date, there were no qualitative adjustment to
 
the CVG portfolio.
 
However, starting with the March
31, 2020 measurement, driven by the elevated risk of credit loss driven
 
by market conditions due to COVID-19, the
Company developed alternate scenarios for expected credit
 
loss for this segment, considering different timing
 
and
magnitudes of potential exposures.
 
The Company determined its most likely expectation for
 
credit losses for the CVG
segment based on the increased risk to its borrowers and increased
 
risk to the collectability of its portfolio from COVID-19,
and increased the reserve and recognized provision associated
 
with qualitative adjustments of $
0.4
 
million and $
3.3
 
million
for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020,
 
respectively.
Community Reinvestment Act (CRA) and Paycheck Protection
 
Program (PPP)
 
Loans:
 
CRA loans are comprised of loans originated under a line of
 
credit to satisfy the Company’s obligations
 
under the CRA. PPP
loans are comprised of loans that are guaranteed by the Small Business
 
Administration.
 
The Company does not measure an
allowance specific to these populations
 
because the exposure to credit loss is nominal.
Specific Analysis:
 
As part of our analysis of expected credit losses, we may analyze
 
contracts on an individual basis, or create additional pools
of contracts, in situations where such loans exhibit unique risk characteristics
 
and are no longer expected to experience
similar losses to the rest of their pool.
 
As of June 30, 2020 and January 1, 2020, there were
no
 
contracts subject to specific
analysis.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
-23-
 
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company has recognized
 
$15.5 million and $
34.7
 
million of provision,
respectively, driven by increasing
 
the allowance for qualitative and forecast adjustments as
 
a result of conditions driven by the
COVID-19 pandemic.
 
The COVID-19 pandemic, business shutdowns and impacts to our
 
customers, is still ongoing, and the extent of
the effects of the pandemic on our portfolio
 
depends on future developments, which are highly uncertain and
 
are difficult to predict.
 
Further, the Company instituted a
 
Loan modification payment deferral program, as discussed further
 
below, to give payment
 
relief to
customers during this period.
 
As of June 30, 2020, the performance of loans modified under
 
that program remains uncertain, due to
the timing of the modified loans resuming payment.
 
Our reserve as of June 30, 2020, and the qualitative and economic
 
adjustments discussed above, were calculated referencing our
historical loss experience, including loss experience through the 2008
 
economic cycle, and our adjustments to that experience based
on our judgements about the extent of the impact of the COVID
 
-19 pandemic.
 
Those judgements include certain expectations for the
extent and timing of impacts from COVID-19 on unemployment rates
 
and business bankruptcies and are based on our current
expectations of the performance of our portfolio in the current environment.
 
We may recognize
 
credit losses in excess of our reserve,
or increases to our credit loss estimate, in the future, and such
 
increases may be significant, based on (i) the actual performance of
 
our
portfolio, including the performance of the modified portfolio,
 
(ii) any further changes in the economic environment, or (iii) other
developments or unforeseen circumstances that impact our portfolio.
Loan Modification Program:
 
In response to COVID-19, starting in mid-March 2020,
 
the Company instituted a payment deferral program in order
 
to assist its small-
business customers that request relief who were current under
 
their existing agreement.
 
The payment deferral program through June
30,
 
2020 for Equipment Finance and CVG typically included
 
a deferral of the full payment amount, and for Working
 
Capital, included
a deferral of the partial amount of payment.
 
The Company’s COVID-modification
 
program allows for up to 6 months of deferred payments.
 
The Company typically processed
first requests to defer customers for up to 3 months; starting in June,
 
the Company has been evaluating and processing requests to
extend the modification period for certain customers
 
using specific underwriting criteria, such that the modification
 
terms may extend
up to 6 months in total.
 
The below table outlines certain data on the modified population
 
based on the balance and status as of June 30, 2020.
 
See discussion
below the table on the status of this population subsequent to
 
quarter-end.

As discussed further below, the
 
Company did not account for these modifications as Troubled
 
Debt Restructurings (“TDRs”),
and as such these loans were not put on non-accrual upon modification.
 
The amount presented for interest income reflects
total income recognized for the three months, for any loan that
 
was modified in the quarter.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
-24-
 
TDRs are restructurings of leases and loans in which, due to the borrower's
 
financial difficulties, a lender grants a concession that
 
it
would not otherwise consider for borrowers of similar credit
 
quality.
 
In accordance with the interagency guidance as updated
 
in April
2020, that the FASB
 
concurred with, loans modified under the Company’s
 
payment deferral program are not considered TDRs. As of
June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company did
no
t have any TDRs.
 
Based on their modified terms as of June 30, 2020,
25
% of our total modified contracts had already resumed their regular payment
schedule before the end of the second quarter,
7
2% were scheduled to resume payment in the third quarter and the
 
remaining
3
% were
scheduled to resume payment in the fourth quarter.
 
Through July 24, 2020, we processed modifications for an additional
 
$5.9 million of Equipment Finance net investment and additions
to the modified population of Working
 
Capital were not significant.
 
 
Credit Quality
 
 
At origination, the Company utilizes an internally developed
 
credit score ratings as part of its underwriting assessment and
 
pricing
decisions for new contracts.
 
The internal credit score is a measurement that combines
 
many risk characteristics, including loan size,
external credit scores, existence of a guarantee, and various characteristics
 
of the borrower’s business.
 
The internal credit score is
used to create pools of loans for analysis in the Company’s
 
Equipment Finance portfolio segment, as discussed
 
further above.
 
We
believe this segmentation allows our loss modeling to properly
 
reflect changes in portfolio mix driven by sales activity and
adjustments to underwriting standards.
 
However, this score is not updated after origination
 
date for analyzing the Company’s
provision.
 
On an ongoing basis, to monitor the credit quality of its portfolio,
 
the Company primarily reviews the current delinquency of the
portfolio and delinquency migration to monitor risk and default trends. We
 
believe that delinquency is the best factor to use to monitor
the credit quality of our portfolio on an ongoing basis because
 
it reflects the current condition of the portfolio, and is a good
 
predictor
of near term charge-offs and can help with identifying
 
trends and emerging risks to the portfolio.
 
 
The following tables provide information about delinquent leases
 
and loans in the Company’s
 
portfolio based on the contract’s
 
status
as-of the dates presented.
 
 
In response to COVID-19, starting in mid-March 2020,
 
the Company instituted a payment deferral program in order
 
to assist its small-
business customers that request relief who are current under
 
their existing obligations and can demonstrate that their ability to
 
repay
has been impacted by the COVID-19 crisis.
 
This program includes either reduced or full-payment deferrals for
 
the modified
contracts, and those contracts are presented in the below delinquency
 
table and the non-accrual information for June 30,
 
2020 based on
their status with respect to the modified terms.

NOTE 7 - Goodwill and Intangible
 
Assets
Goodwill
The Company’s goodwill balance of $
6.7
 
million at December 31, 2019 included $
1.2
 
million from the Company’s acquisition of
HKF, in January 2017,
 
and $
5.5
 
million from the September 2018 acquisition of FFR.
 
The goodwill balance represents the excess
purchase price over the Company’s
 
fair value of the assets acquired and is not amortizable but is deductible
 
for tax purposes.
 
The Company assigns its goodwill to a single, consolidated reporting
 
unit, Marlin Business Services Corp. In the first quarter
 
of 2020,
events or circumstances indicated that it was more likely than
 
not that the fair value of its reporting unit was less than its carrying
amount, driven in part by market capitalization of the Company falling
 
below its book value, and negative current events that impact
the Company related to the COVID-19 economic shutdown.
 
The Company calculated the fair value of the reporting unit,
 
by taking
the average stock price over a reasonable period of time multiplied
 
by shares outstanding as of March 31, 2020 and then further
applying a control premium, and compared it to its carryin
 
g
 
amount, including goodwill.
 
The Company concluded that the implied
fair value of goodwill was less than its carrying amount, and
 
recognized impairment equal to the $
6.7
 
million balance in the
Consolidated Statements of Operations.
 
The changes in the carrying amount of goodwill for the six-month period
 
ended June 30, 2020 are as follows:

NOTE 11 – Fair Value
 
Measurements and Disclosures about
 
the Fair Value
 
of Financial Instruments
 
Fair Value
 
Measurements
 
Fair value is defined in GAAP as the price that would be received
 
to sell an asset or the price that would be paid to transfer a
 
liability
on the measurement date. GAAP focuses on the exit price in
 
the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in
 
an
orderly transaction between market participants. A three-level
 
valuation hierarchy is required for disclosure of fair value
measurements based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of
 
an asset or liability as of the measurement date. The fair value
hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices (unadjusted)
 
in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and
 
the
lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). The level in the fair
 
value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its
entirety falls is determined based on the lowest level input that
 
is significant to the measurement in its entirety.
 
 
The Company’s balances measured
 
at fair value on a recurring basis include the following
 
as of June 30, 2020 and December 31,
2019:
 
June 30, 2020

At this time, the Company has not elected to report any assets
 
and liabilities using the fair value option. There have been
 
no transfers
between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy for
 
any of the periods presented.
 
Non-Recurring Measurements
 
Non-recurring fair value measurements include assets and liabilities
 
that are periodically remeasured or assessed for impairment
 
using
Fair value measurements. Non-recurring measurements include
 
the Company’s evaluation of goodwill
 
and residual assets for
impairment, and the Company’s remeasurement
 
of contingent consideration and assessment of the carrying amount
 
of its servicing
liability.
 
 
For the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company recognized
 
$
6.7
 
million for the impairment of goodwill in the Consolidated
Statements of Operations, as discussed further in Note 7, Goodwill
 
and Intangible Assets.
 
For the six months ended June 30,
 
2019,
there were no significant amounts recognized in the Consolidated
 
Statements of Operations in connection with non-recurring fair
value measurements.

NOTE 12 – Earnings Per Share
 
 
The Company’s restricted stock
 
awards are paid non-forfeitable common stock dividends and
 
thus meet the criteria of participating
securities. Accordingly, earnings
 
per share (“EPS”) has been calculated using the two-class method,
 
under which earnings are
allocated to both common stock and participating securities.
 
 
Basic EPS has been computed by dividing net income or loss allocated
 
to common stock by the weighted average common shares
used in computing basic EPS. For the computation of basic EPS,
 
all shares of restricted stock have been deducted from the weighted
average shares outstanding.
 
 
Diluted EPS has been computed by dividing net income or loss
 
allocated to common stock by the weighted average number
 
of
common shares used in computing basic EPS, further adjusted
 
by including the dilutive impact of the exercise or conversion of
common stock equivalents, such as stock options, into shares
 
of common stock as if those securities were exercised or
 
converted.
 
The following table provides net income and shares used in computing basic
 
and diluted EPS:

In addition to the repurchases described above, participants in
 
the Company’s 2014 Equity Compensation
 
Plan (approved by the
Company’s shareholders on June 3,
 
2014) (the “2014 Plan”) may have
 
shares withheld to cover income taxes. During the three-month
periods ended June 30, 2020 and June 30, 2019, there were
1,897
 
shares and
536
 
shares repurchased to cover income tax withholding
under the 2014 Plan at an average cost of $
6.50
 
per share and $
22.81
 
per share, respectively. During the
 
six-month periods ended
June 30, 2020 and June 30, 2019, there were
23,020
 
and
19,446
 
shares repurchased to cover income tax withholding in connection
with shares granted under the 2014 Plan at average per-share
 
costs of $
12.81
 
and $
22.74
, respectively.
 
Regulatory Capital Requirements
 
Through its issuance of FDIC-insured deposits, MBB serves as the Company’s
 
primary funding source. Over time, MBB may offer
other products and services to the Company’s
 
customer base. MBB operates as a Utah state-chartered, Federal
 
Reserve member
commercial bank, insured by the FDIC. As a state-chartered Federal
 
Reserve member bank, MBB is supervised by both the Federal
Reserve Bank of San Francisco and the Utah Department of Financial
 
Institutions.
 
The Company and MBB are subject to capital adequacy regulations
 
issued jointly by the federal bank regulatory agencies. These
 
risk-
based capital and leverage guidelines make regulatory capital requirements
 
more sensitive to differences in risk profiles among
banking organizations and consider off
 
-balance sheet exposures in determining capital adequacy.
 
The federal bank regulatory agencies
and/or the U.S. Congress may determine to increase capital requirements
 
in the future due to the current economic environment.
Under the capital adequacy regulation, at least half of a banking organization’s
 
total capital is required to be "Tier
 
1 Capital" as
defined in the regulations, comprised of common equity,
 
retained earnings and a limited amount of non-cumulative
 
perpetual
preferred stock. The remaining capital, "Tier
 
2 Capital," as defined in the regulations, may consist of other preferred
 
stock, a limited
amount of term subordinated debt or a limited amount of the
 
reserve for possible credit losses. The regulations establish
 
minimum
leverage ratios for banking organizations, which are
 
calculated by dividing Tier 1 Capital
 
by total average assets. Recognizing that the
risk-based capital standards principally address credit risk rather than interest
 
rate, liquidity, operational
 
or other risks, many banking
organizations are expected to maintain capital in excess
 
of the minimum standards.
 
The Company and MBB operate under the Basel III capital
 
adequacy standards. These standards require a minimum for Tier
 
1
leverage ratio of
4
%, minimum Tier 1 risk-based ratio
 
of
6
%, and a total risk-based capital ratio of
8
%.
 
The Basel III capital adequacy
standards established a new common equity Tier
 
1 risk-based capital ratio with a required
4.5
% minimum (
6.5
% to be considered
well-capitalized). The Company is required to have a level of
 
regulatory capital in excess of the regulatory minimum and
 
to have a
capital buffer above
2.5
%. If a banking organization does not maintain capital above
 
the minimum plus the capital conservation buffer
it may be subject to restrictions on dividends, share buybacks, and
 
certain discretionary payments such as bonus payments.
 
CMLA Agreement.
 
On March 25, 2020, MBB received notice from the FDIC that
 
it had approved MBB’s request
 
to rescind certain
nonstandard conditions in the FDIC’s
 
order granting federal deposit insurance issued on March 20,
 
2007. Furthermore, effective
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
-35-
 
March 26, 2020,
 
the FDIC, the Company and certain of the Company’s
 
subsidiaries terminated the Capital Maintenance and Liquidity
Agreement (the “CMLA Agreement”) and the Parent Company
 
Agreement, each entered into by and among the Company,
 
certain of
its subsidiaries and the FDIC in conjunction with the opening of
 
MBB.
 
As
 
a result of these actions, MBB is no longer required
pursuant to the CMLA Agreement to maintain a total risk-based
 
capital ratio above
15
%. Rather, MBB must continue to maintain a
total risk-based capital ratio above 10% in order to maintain
 
“well-capitalized” status as defined by banking regulations, while the
Company must continue to maintain a total risk-based capital
 
ratio as discussed in the immediately preceding paragraph.
 
The
additional capital released by the termination of the CMLA Agreement
 
is held at MBB and is subject to the restrictions outlined in
Title 12 part 208 of the Code of Federal Regulations
 
(12 CFR 208.5), which places limitations on bank dividends,
 
including restricting
dividends for any year to the earnings from the current and prior
 
two calendar years.
 
Any dividends declared above that amount and
any return of permanent capital would require prior
 
approval of the Federal Reserve Board of Governors.
MBB’s Tier
 
1 Capital balance at June 30, 2020 was$
133.6
 
million, which met all capital requirements to which MBB is subject
 
and
qualified MBB for “well-capitalized” status. At June 30, 2020
 
,
 
the Company also exceeded its regulatory capital requirements and
 
was
considered “well-capitalized” as defined by federal banking regulations
 
and as required by the FDIC Agreement.
 
CECL Capital Transition.
 
The Company adopted CECL, or a new measurement methodology for
 
the allowance estimate, on January
1, 2020, as discussed further in Note 2—Summary of Significant Accounting
 
Policies.
 
Rules governing the Company’s regulatory
capital requirements give entities the option of delaying for two years
 
the estimated impact of CECL on regulatory capital, followed
by a three-year transition period to phase out the aggregate amount
 
of capital benefit, or a five-year transition in total. The Company
has elected to avail itself of the five-year transition.
 
For measurements of regulatory capital in 2020 and 2021
 
,
 
under the two year
delay the Company shall prepare: (i) a measurement of its estimated
 
allowance for credit losses under CECL, as reported in its balance
sheets; and (ii) a measurement of its estimated allowance under
 
the historical incurred loss methodology,
 
as prescribed by the
regulatory calculation.
 
Any amount of provisions under CECL that is in excess of the incurred
 
estimate will be an adjustment the
Company’s capital during the two-year
 
delay.
 
The three-year transition, starting in 2022, will phase in that
 
adjustment straight-line,
such that
25
 
percent of the transitional amounts will be included in the first year,
 
and an additional
25
% over each of the next two
years, such that we will have phased in
75
% of the adjustment during year three.
 
At the beginning of year 6 (2025) the Company will
have completely reflected the effects of CECL in its regulatory
 
capital.
 
 
The following table sets forth the Tier
 
1 leverage ratio, common equity Tier 1
 
risk-based capital ratio, Tier 1 risk-based capital
 
ratio
and total risk-based capital ratio for Marlin Business Services Corp.
 
and MBB at June 30, 2020.

Prompt Corrective Action
.
 
The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of
 
1991 (“FDICIA”) requires the federal
regulators to take prompt corrective action against any undercapitalized
 
institution.
 
Five capital categories have been established
under federal banking regulations:
 
well-capitalized, adequately capitalized, undercapitalized,
 
significantly undercapitalized and
critically undercapitalized.
 
Well-capitalized
 
institutions significantly exceed the required minimum level
 
for each relevant capital
measure.
 
Adequately capitalized institutions include depository institutions
 
that meet but do not significantly exceed the required
minimum level for each relevant capital measure. Undercapitalized
 
institutions consist of those that fail to meet the required
 
minimum
level for one or more relevant capital measures.
 
Significantly undercapitalized characterizes depository institutions with
 
capital levels
significantly below the minimum requirements for any relevant capital
 
measure.
 
Critically undercapitalized refers to depository
institutions with minimal capital and at serious risk for government
 
seizure.
 
Under certain circumstances, a well-capitalized, adequately capitalized
 
or undercapitalized institution may be treated as if the
institution were in the next lower capital category.
 
A depository institution is generally prohibited from making
 
capital distributions,
including paying dividends, or paying management fees to a holding
 
company if the institution would thereafter be undercapitalized.
 
Institutions that are adequately capitalized but not well-capitalized
 
cannot accept, renew or roll over brokered deposits except with a
waiver from the FDIC and are subject to restrictions on the interest
 
rates that can be paid on such deposits. Undercapitalized
institutions may not accept, renew or roll over brokered deposits.
 
The federal bank regulatory agencies are permitted or,
 
in certain cases, required to take certain actions with respect to
 
institutions
falling within one of the three undercapitalized categories.
 
Depending on the level of an institution’s
 
capital, the agency’s corrective
powers include, among other things:
 
 
• prohibiting
 
the payment of principal and interest on subordinated
 
debt;
• prohibiting
 
the holding company from making distributions without
 
prior regulatory approval;
• placing
 
limits on asset growth and restrictions on activities;
• placing
 
additional restrictions on transactions with affiliates;
• restricting
 
the interest rate the institution may pay on deposits;
• prohibiting the institution from accepting
 
deposits from correspondent banks; and
• in the most severe cases, appointing a
 
conservator or receiver for the institution.
A banking institution that is undercapitalized is required to
 
submit a capital restoration plan, and such a plan will not be accepted
unless, among other things, the banking institution’s
 
holding company guarantees the plan up to a certain specified amount.
 
Any such
guarantee from a depository institution’s
 
holding company is entitled to a priority of payment in bankruptcy.
 
 
MBB’s total risk-based capital
 
ratio of
1623
% at June 30, 2020 exceeded the threshold for “well capitalized”
 
status under the
applicable laws and regulations.
 
Dividends
.
 
The Federal Reserve Board has issued policy statements requiring
 
insured banks and bank holding companies to have an
established assessment process for maintaining capital commensurate
 
with their overall risk profile. Such assessment process may
affect the ability of the organizations to pay
 
dividends. Although generally organizations may pay dividends
 
only out of current
operating earnings, dividends may be paid if the distribution is prudent
 
relative to the organization’s
 
financial position and risk profile,
after consideration of current and prospective economic conditions.
 
As of June 30, 2020, MBB does not have the capacity to pay
dividends to the Company without explicit approval from the
 
Federal Reserve Board of Governors because of the current
 
period losses
and the amount of cumulative dividends paid over the past two years.

NOTE 14 – Stock-Based Compensation
 
 
Awards for
 
Stock-Based Compensation are governed by the Company’s
 
2003 Equity Compensation Plan, as amended (the “2003
Plan”), the Company’s 2014
 
Equity Compensation Plan (approved by the Company’s
 
shareholders on June 3, 2014) (the “2014 Plan”)
and the Company’s 2019
 
Equity Compensation Plan (approved by the Company’s
 
shareholders on May 30, 2019) (the “2019 Plan”
and, together with the 2014 Plan and the 2003 Plan, the “Equity Compensation
 
Plans”). Under the terms of the Equity Compensation
Plans, employees, certain consultants and advisors and non-employee
 
members of the Company’s Board
 
of Directors have the
opportunity to receive incentive and nonqualified grants of stock options,
 
stock appreciation rights, restricted stock and other equity-
based awards as approved by the Company’s
 
Board of Directors.
 
These award programs are used to attract, retain and motivate
employees and to encourage individuals in key management
 
roles to retain stock.
 
The Company has a policy of issuing new shares to
satisfy awards under the Equity Compensation Plans. The aggregate number
 
of shares under the 2019 Plan that may be issued for
Grants is
826,036
. There were
541,222
 
shares available for future awards under the 2019 Plan as of June 30,
 
2020.
 
There was
no
 
stock-based compensation expense recognized for the three-month
 
period ended June 30, 2020. Total
 
stock-based
compensation expense was $
1.0
 
million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2019.
 
Total stock-based compensation
 
expense was
$
0.4
 
million and $
1.9
 
million for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2020 and
 
June 30, 2019, respectively. Excess
 
tax benefits from
stock-based payment arrangements were less than $
0.1
 
million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2019.
 
 
Stock Options
 
Option awards are generally granted with an exercise price equal
 
to the market price of the Company’s
 
stock at the date of the grant
and have
7
 
year contractual terms.
 
All options issued contain service conditions based on the participant’s
 
continued service with the
Company and provide for accelerated vesting if there is a change in control
 
as defined in the Equity Compensation Plans.
 
Employee
stock options generally vest over
three
 
to
four years
.
There were
no
 
stock options granted during the three-month and six periods ended
 
June 30, 2020 and June 30, 2019, respectively.
The expected life for options is estimated based on their vesting and
 
contractual terms and was determined by applying the simplified
method as defined by the SEC’s Staff
 
Accounting Bulletin No. 107 (“SAB 107”). The risk-free interest rate
 
reflected the yield on
zero-coupon Treasury securities with a term
 
approximating the expected life of the stock options. The
 
expected volatility was
determined using historical volatilities based on historical stock
 
prices
 
.

Restricted Stock Awards
 
The Company’s restricted stock
 
awards provide that, during the applicable vesting periods,
 
the shares awarded may not be sold or
transferred by the participant. The vesting period for restricted
 
stock awards generally ranges from
three
 
to
seven years
. All awards
issued contain service conditions based on the participant’s
 
continued service with the Company and may provide for accelerated
vesting if there is a change in control as defined in the Equity Compensation
 
Plans.
 
 
The vesting of certain restricted shares may be accelerated to
 
a minimum of
three years
 
based on achievement of various individual
performance measures. Acceleration of expense for awards based
 
on individual performance factors occurs when the achievement of
the performance criteria is determined.
 
Vesting
 
was accelerated in 2019 on certain awards based on the achievement
 
of certain performance criteria determined annually,
 
as
described below.
 
 
The Company also issues restricted stock to non-employee independent
 
directors.
 
These shares generally vest in
seven years
 
from the
grant date or
six months
 
following the director’s termination from Board
 
of Directors service.

During the three-month periods ended June 30, 2020
 
and June 30,
 
2019, the Company granted restricted stock awards with grant-date
fair values totaling $
0.4
 
million and $
0.1
 
million, respectively. During the
 
six-month periods ended June 30, 2020 and June 30,
 
2019,
the Company granted restricted stock awards with grant-date
 
fair values totaling $
0.4
 
million and $
0.1
 
million, respectively.
 
 
As vesting occurs, or is deemed likely to occur,
 
compensation expense is recognized over the requisite service
 
period and additional
paid-in capital is increased. The Company recognized $
0.1
 
million and $
0.2
 
million of compensation expense related to restricted
stock for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2020
 
and June 30, 2019, respectively. The
 
Company recognized $
0.2
 
million and
$
0.5
 
million of compensation expense related to restricted stock for the six-month
 
periods ended June 30, 2020 and June 30, 2019,
respectively.
 
Of the $
0.2
 
million total compensation expense related to restricted stock for the six-month
 
period ended June 30, 2020,
no
 
expense
was related to accelerated vesting based on achievement of certain performance
 
criteria determined annually.
 
Of the $0.5 million total
compensation expense related to restricted stock for the six-month
 
period ended June 30, 2019, approximately $
0.1
 
million related to
accelerated vesting during the first quarter of 2019,
 
which was also based on the achievement of certain performance criteria
determined annually.
 
As of June 30, 2020, there was $
1.6
 
million of unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested restricted
 
stock compensation
scheduled to be recognized over a weighted average period
 
of
5.0
 
years.
 
 
The fair value of shares that vested during the three-month periods
 
ended June 30, 2020 and June 30, 2019 was $
0.1
 
million and $
0.3
million, respectively. The
 
fair value of shares that vested during the six-month periods
 
ended June 30, 2020 and June 30, 2019 was
$
0.3
 
million and $
1.1
 
million, respectively.
 
 
Restricted Stock Units
Restricted stock units (“RSUs”) are granted with vesting conditions
 
based on fulfillment of a service condition (generally three to
 
four
years from the grant date), and may also require achievement
 
of certain operating performance criteria,
 
achievement of certain market-
based targets associated with the Company’s
 
stock price or relative total shareholder return, or a
 
combination of both performance
criteria and market-based targets.
For those awards subject to achievement of certain market
 
performance criteria, the market-based
target measurement period begins one year from the grant
 
date and ends three years from the grant date. Expense for
 
equity-based
 
awards with market and performance conditions is recognized
 
over the performance period based on the grant-date fair value of the
award for those awards which are expected to be
 
earned.

vesting conditions granted during the six-month periods ended
 
June 30, 2020 and June 30, 2019
 
was $
12.90
 
and
12.91

respectively. The weighted
 
average grant date fair value of these performance and market-based
 
RSUs was estimated using a Monte
Carlo simulation valuation model with the following assumptions:

Dividend yield
 
The risk free interest rate reflected the yield on zero coupon Treasury
 
securities with a term approximating the expected life of the
RSUs. The expected volatility was based on historical volatility
 
of the Company’s common
 
stock. Dividend yield was assumed at zero
as the grant assumes dividends distributed during the performance period
 
are reinvested.
 
When valuing the grant, we have assumed a
dividend yield of zero, which is mathematically equivalent to
 
reinvesting dividends in the issuing entity.

O
VERVIEW
 
 
Founded in 1997, we are a nationwide provider of credit
 
products and services to small and mid-sized businesses. The products
 
and
services we provide to our customers include loans and leases for the acquisition
 
of commercial equipment (including Commercial
Vehicle
 
Group (“CVG”) assets) and working capital loans. In May 2000,
 
we established AssuranceOne, Ltd., a Bermuda-based,
wholly-owned captive insurance subsidiary (“Assurance One”),
 
which enables us to reinsure the property insurance coverage for the
equipment financed by Marlin Leasing Corporation (“MLC”) and
 
Marlin Business Bank (“MBB”) for our small business customers.
In 2008, we opened MBB, a commercial bank chartered by the State
 
of Utah and a member of the Federal Reserve System. MBB
serves as the Company’s primary
 
funding
 
source through its issuance of Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation
 
(“FDIC”)-insured
deposits.
 
In January 2017, we completed the acquisition of Horizon Keystone Financial
 
(“HKF”), an equipment leasing company
which primarily identifies and sources lease and loan contracts
 
for investor partners for a fee, and in September 2018,
 
we completed
the acquisition of Fleet Financing Resources (“FFR”), an company
 
specializing in the leasing and financing of both new and used
commercial vehicles, with an emphasis on livery equipment and
 
other types of commercial vehicles used by small businesses.
 
We access our
 
end user customers primarily through origination sources consisting
 
of independent commercial equipment dealers,
various national account programs, through direct solicitation of our
 
end user customers and through relationships with select
 
lease
and loan brokers. We
 
use both a telephonic direct sales model and, for strategic larger
 
accounts, outside sales executives to market to
our origination sources and end user customers. Through these origination
 
sources, we are able to cost-effectively access end
 
user
customers while also helping our origination sources obtain financing
 
for their customers.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
-43-
 
We fund our
 
business primarily through the issuance of fixed and variable-rate
 
FDIC-insured deposits and money market demand
accounts raised nationally by MBB, sales of pools of leases or
 
loans, as well as, from time to time, fixed-rate asset backed
securitization transactions.

XECUTIVE
S
UMMARY
 
 
Summary
 
Through the second quarter, the impacts
 
of the COVID-19 pandemic continued to be experienced
 
by our business. Origination
volumes for both equipment finance and working capital loans
 
were down, a combined decrease of almost 70% from the
 
second
quarter of 2019.
 
While we have tightened our underwriting standards for all of our products,
 
the decline in volume is primarily due to
decreased demand during this period of business shutdowns and
 
economic uncertainty.
 
We expect our
 
origination volumes for the
second half of 2020 will be negatively impacted as the effects
 
of the pandemic continue and this period of uncertainty continues to
impact the macroeconomic environment.
 
Given the ongoing health crisis in the United States, especially the
 
recent COVID-19 flare-
ups in the south and west, any return to pre-pandemic levels of
 
activity remains uncertain.
 
We implemented
 
a payment deferral contract modification program to assist
 
our customers who, during this period of economic
decline, were current under their existing obligations.
 
As of June 30, 2020, we had $133.8 million, or 13.7%, of our Net investment
 
in
leases and loans in payment deferral agreements,
 
and on average the term of the modified contracts had increased
 
by three months.
 
We have begun to extend
 
the deferrals for certain customers using specific underwriting
 
criteria,
 
for up to six months of total
modification.
 
As our contract modification program will allow for up-to six months
 
of payment deferrals, and the program began in late March,
 
the
ultimate performance of this portfolio and the customers’
 
ability to resume full payment will be shown generally starting
 
late in the
third quarter or going into the fourth quarter of this year.
 
Based on their modified terms as of June 30, 2020,
 
25% of our total
modified contracts had already resumed their regular payment schedule
 
before the end of the second quarter,
 
72%
 
were scheduled to
resume payment in the third quarter and the remaining 3% were
 
scheduled to resume payment in the fourth quarter.
 
We are closely
monitoring the payment performance of our customers as their
 
post-deferral obligations become due.
 
While most modification
extensions require partial payments, the ability of these customers
 
to resume their scheduled payment obligations under their contract
has yet to be confirmed.
 
Additionally, their ability to resume
 
payment may be highly impacted by the extent and duration of the
continued impacts of the pandemic, which remains uncertain
 
.
 
Our delinquency statistics as of June 30, 2020 measure the portfolio
 
based on their current effective terms, which would include
intervals of either full or partial payment deferral for the modified
 
portfolio.
 
For Equipment Finance and Working
 
Capital, 12.5% and
42.4% of the respective portfolios were in the modification program.
 
The 60+ delinquency rate for Equipment Finance has increased
to 2.52% as of June 30, 2020 from 0.86% at December 31,
 
2019.
 
The 30+ delinquency rate for Working
 
Capital has increased to
2.68% as of June 30, 2020 from 1.42% at December 31,
 
2019. Further, these delinquency rates have doubled
 
from the quarter ended
March 31, 2020.
 
 
Year
 
-to-date, we have recognized $34.7 million of increases to
 
our allowance for qualitative and forecast adjustments as a result of the
expected impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on our portfolio.
 
These increases include $15.5 million of provision recognized
 
in the
second quarter, and $19.2 million in the
 
first quarter.
 
Our allowance as a percent of receivables has increased for Equipment
 
Finance
to 6.00% from 2.05% at December 31, 2019, and increased
 
for Working Capital
 
to 18.92% from 3.12% at December 31,
 
2019.
 
 
Our total Allowance of $63.6 million as of June 30, 2020
 
incorporates all of our current judgments about the impact of the COVID
 
-19
pandemic on our portfolio.
 
Our estimate of credit losses is based on our assessment of the
 
risks to our portfolio, including certain
economic assumptions driven by forecasted unemployment and business
 
bankruptcy levels, our expectations regarding the
performance of our portfolio under these economic conditions,
 
and such estimates are driven by limited information regarding the
extent and timeline of impacts from COVID-19. All of the assumptions
 
and expectations underlying our estimate of credit loss depend
largely on future developments, and these estimates are
 
highly uncertain;
 
the ultimate amount of credit losses we may realize on our
portfolio may vary from our current estimate.
 
We may recognize credit
 
losses in excess of our reserve, or adjustments to our required
reserve based on future performance,
 
and such adjustments may be significant, based on: (i)
 
the actual performance of our portfolio,
including the performance of the modified portfolio;
 
(ii) any further changes in the economic environment; or (iii)
 
other developments
or unforeseen circumstances that impact our portfolio.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
-44-
 
We recognized
 
a $5.9 million Net loss for the quarter,
 
driven largely by the $15.5 million COVID-related
 
provision for loan loss.
 
We
began efforts to tighten our expense base, putting approximately
 
120 employees on furlough in mid-April.
 
In June, we made the
decision to permanently reduce our workforce by approximately
 
80 employees, which reduced our headcount to approximately
 
250
employees at the end of July,
 
down from approximately 350 employees as of December 31,
 
2019.
 
Our total Salaries and benefits was
$7.7 million for the second quarter of 2020, which is $4.8
 
million lower than the same quarter of 2019.
 
That reduction reflects $1.7
million of lower salary expense, primarily driven by reduced
 
headcount from the furlough, partially offset by $0.9
 
million of
severance recognized, plus $1.9 million lower incentive compensation cost and
 
$2.1
 
million of lower commission expense.
 
We also
made the decision to exit one office lease as part of our
 
cost reduction efforts, and recognized $0.2 million of costs
 
associated with
that planned exit.
 
We continue
 
to assess all other aspects of our expense base in order to
 
stabilize our operations and minimize the
negative impacts of the ongoing pandemic.
 
Through the second quarter, our employees
 
continue to work remotely,
 
and we have not experienced any significant interruption to
our operations from that transition.
 
We continue to
 
assess how to best evolve our operations and how to best serve our customers
 
in
this changing environment.

For three and six months ended June 30, 2020, we have recognized
 
$15.5 million and $34.7 million of provision for credit losses,
respectively, driven by qualitative
 
and forecast adjustments to
 
the allowance for credit losses as a result of the economic impact of the
COVID-19 pandemic.
 
The COVID-19 pandemic, business shutdowns and impacts to our
 
customers, are still ongoing, and the extent
of the effects of the pandemic on our portfolio
 
depends on future developments, which are highly uncertain and are
 
difficult to predict.
 
Further, we instituted a Loan modification
 
payment deferral program, as discussed further below,
 
to give payment relief to customers
during this period.
 
As of June 30, 2020, the performance of loans modified under that program
 
remains uncertain.
 
Our reserve as of June 30, 2020, and the qualitative and economic
 
adjustments outlined below in our Provision discussion,
 
were
calculated referencing our historical loss experience, including loss
 
experience through the 2008 economic cycle, and our adjustments
to that experience based on our judgements about the expected
 
impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.
 
Those judgements include certain
expectations
 
for the extent and timing of impacts from COVID-19 on unemployment
 
rates and business bankruptcies and are based on
our current expectations of the performance of our portfolio in
 
the current environment.
 
We may recognize
 
credit losses in excess of
our reserve, or increases to our estimated expected credit loss
 
es, in the future, and such increases may be significant, based
 
on: (i) the
actual performance of our portfolio, including the performance
 
of the modified portfolio;
 
(ii) any further changes in the economic
environment; or (iii) other developments or unforeseen circumstances
 
that impact our portfolio.
Loan Modification Program.
 
In response to COVID-19, starting in mid-March 2020,
 
we instituted a payment deferral program in order to assist our small
 
-business
customers that request relief who are current under their existing
 
obligations.
 
Our COVID-19 modification program allows for up to 6
months of deferred payments.
 
We typically processed
 
first requests to defer customers for up to 3 months; starting
 
in July, we have
been evaluating and processing requests to extend the modification
 
period for certain customers using specific underwriting criteria,
such that the modification terms may extend to up to 6
 
months in total.
 
The below table outlines certain data on the modified population
 
based on the balance and status as of June 30, 2020.

Capital, 11 loans paid in full and 4 charge-offs.

Requests not processed includes requests declined or cancelled by the customer, requests declined by the Company, and
 
an insignificant
amount of requests in process pending underwriting or without finalized documentation as of June 30, 2020.
Through June 30, 2020, the first round of modifications processed
 
for Equipment Finance generally consisted of adding three
 
months
of $0 payments, or fully deferred payments.
 
As a result, the weighted-average total contract yield for this population declined
 
by 35
basis points.
 
The extension requests we are currently processing for
 
Equipment Finance, to extend the term of the deferral to
 
up to 6
months total, are generally being processed to require a partial
 
payment during the deferral period, with additions to the customers
 
post-deferral payments to achieve a consistent level of yield.
Through June 30, 2020, the modifications processed for Working
 
Capital have generally consisted of up to 6 months of partial-
payment deferral, with additions to the customers post-deferral
 
payments to achieve a consistent level of yield.
 
Through July 24, 2020, we processed modifications for an additional
 
$5.9 million of Equipment Finance net investment and additions
to the modified population for Working
 
Capital were not significant.
 
Portfolio Trends
 
 
During the three months ended June 30, 2020,
 
we generated 3,178 new Equipment Finance leases and loans with equipment
 
costs of
$64.6 million, compared to 7,648 new Equipment Finance leases and
 
loans with equipment costs of $181.8 million generated
 
for the
three months ended June 30, 2019.
 
Working Capital loan
 
originations were less than $1.0 million during the three-month
 
period ended
June 30, 2020,
 
compared to $27.5 million for the three-month period ended June 30,
 
2019.
 
 
Overall, our average net investment in total finance receivables
 
for the three-month period ended June 30, 2020 decreased
 
5.1% to
$979.3 million, compared to $1,031.8 million for the three-month period
 
ended June 30, 2019.
 
Our origination volumes in the three
months ended June 30, 2020 were lower than our historical norms,
 
primarily driven by decreased demand attributable to
 
COVID-19
related business shutdowns and other macroeconomic factors.
 
We expect our
 
origination volumes for the third quarter of 2020 will
continue to be negatively impacted by these factors, and our
 
portfolio of receivables may continue to decline as long as our
 
origination
volumes are less than portfolio runoff.
 
Given the ongoing health crisis in the United States, especially the
 
recent COVID-19 flare-ups
in the south and west, any returns to pre-pandemic levels of activity
 
remains uncertain.

Represents a subset of modification requests where the customer contacted the Company to initiate a modification, but the request was not
processed.
 
This includes requests cancelled because the customer declined the revised terms or did not finalize documents, requests
declined by the Company, as well as an insignificant amount of requests that were in-process at the end of the second quarter.
 
Contracts that are part of the payment deferral modification program
 
will be reflected in our Delinquency and Non-Accrual measures
based on their performance against their modified terms.
 
 
Equipment Finance receivables over 30 days delinquent were
 
390 basis points as of June 30, 2020, up 208 basis points from March
31, 2020, and up 284 basis points from June 30, 2019.
 
Working Capital receivables
 
over 15 days delinquent were 438 basis points as
of June 30, 2020, up 183 basis points from March 31, 2020
 
and up 386 basis points from June 30, 2019.
 
 
Equipment Finance leases and loans are generally charged
 
-off when they are contractually past due for 120 days or
 
more.
 
Working
Capital loans are generally charged-off at 60
 
days past due. Annualized second quarter total net charge
 
-offs were 3.47% of average
total finance receivables versus 3.11%
 
in the first quarter of 2020 and 1.88% a year ago.
 
 
Through the end of the second quarter,
 
we have not yet begun to experience any material increase in charge
 
-offs driven by the impact
of COVID-19.
 
We are
 
continuing to evaluate the delinquency trends of the non-modified portfolio,
 
and we are monitoring the
payment performance of the modified portfolio as those customers
 
begin to resume payment. Based on their modified terms as
 
of June
30, 2020, 25% of our total modified contracts had already resumed
 
their regular payment schedule before the end of the second
quarter, 72% were scheduled to resume payment
 
in the third quarter and the remaining 3% were scheduled to resume
 
payment in the
fourth quarter.
 
We are
 
closely monitoring the payment performance of our customers as their
 
payments post-deferral become due.
 
While most modification extensions require partial payments, the ability
 
of these customers to resume their scheduled obligation of
their contract has yet to be confirmed.
 
Additionally, their ability to resume
 
payment may be highly impacted by the extent and
duration of the continued impacts of the pandemic, which remains
 
uncertain.
 
In accordance with interagency guidance as amended in April
 
2020, as affirmed by the FASB,
 
we are not accounting for our payment-
deferral modified loans as TDRs, and we are continuing to accrue
 
interest on those loans.
 
For the three months ended June 30, 2020,
we recognized total Interest income of $3.93 million on loans in our
 
COVID-19 loan modification program.

Income
recognition is discontinued on Equipment Finance leases or
 
loans, including CVG loans, when a default on monthly payment
 
exists
for a period of 90 days or more. Income recognition resumes
 
when the lease or loan becomes less than
 
90 days delinquent.
 
Working
Capital Loans are generally placed in non-accrual status when they
 
are 30 days past due. The loan is removed from non-accrual
 
status
once sufficient payments are made to bring the loan
 
current and evidence of a sustained performance period
 
as reviewed by
management.
 
The Company has no loans 90 days or more past due that were
 
still accruing interest for any of the periods presented.

As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, we have been continually
 
assessing the risks to our portfolio, including consideration
 
of high-
risk industries and geographic locations that are being more significantly
 
impacted by the spread of COVID-19.
 
While we are attempting to mitigate the impact of the COVID
 
-19 pandemic on our portfolio, by tightening underwriting standards
 
for
areas of elevated risk and by assisting borrowers that have been negatively
 
impacted, the extent of the impacts of COVID-19 on our
portfolio remains uncertain.

The allowance for
 
credit losses as a
 
percentage of total finance
 
receivables increased to
 
6.53% as of June
 
30, 2020,
 
from 2.15% as of
December 31,
 
2019.
 
This increase
 
in reserve
 
coverage is
 
primarily driven
 
by an
 
$11.9 million
 
increase from
 
the Janu
 
ary 1,
 
2020
adoption of CECL, and
 
a $34.7 million Provision
 
for credit losses recognized
 
as a result of
 
qualitative and forecast adjustments
 
in the
six months ended June 30,
 
2020 as a result of the estimated impact to the portfolio from the
 
COVID-19 pandemic.
 
Provision for credit
 
losses
.
 
 
The provision for
 
credit losses recognized
 
after the adoption
 
of CECL is
 
primarily driven
 
by origination volumes,
 
offset by
 
the
reversal of the
 
allowance for any
 
contracts sold, plus
 
adjustments for changes
 
in estimate each
 
subsequent reporting period.
 
For
2020, given
 
the wide
 
changes in
 
the macroeconomic
 
environment driven
 
by COVID
 
-19, the
 
changes in
 
estimate is
 
the most
significant driver
 
of provision.
 
In contrast, the
 
allowance estimate
 
recognized in
 
2019 under
 
the probable,
 
incurred model
 
was
based on the current estimate of probable net credit
 
losses inherent in the portfolio.
For the three months ended
 
June 30,
 
2020, the $18.8 million provision
 
for credit losses recognized was
 
$14.0 million greater than
the $4.8
 
million provision recognized
 
for the three
 
months ended
 
June 30,
 
2019.
 
For the
 
six months ended
 
June 30,
 
2020, the
$44.0 million provision for
 
credit losses recognized was
 
$33.9 million greater than
 
the $10.1 million provision
 
recognized for the
three months ended
 
June 30, 2019.
 
The provision included
 
COVID-related forecast and
 
qualitative adjustments of
 
$15.5 million
for the three months ended June 30, 2020, and $34.7 million for
 
the six months ended June 30, 2020.
 
Our estimate
 
of COVID
 
-related losses
 
for the
 
Equipment Finance
 
portfolio is
 
primarily driven
 
by updates
 
to a
 
reasonable and
supportable forecast based
 
on the modeled
 
correlation of changes
 
in the loss
 
experience of the
 
our portfolio to
 
certain economic
statistics, specifically
 
changes in
 
the unemployme
 
nt rate
 
and changes
 
in the
 
number of
 
business bankruptcies.
 
Our COVID-
provision for
 
Equipment Finance
 
was $10.8
 
million for the
 
first quarter
 
of 2020,
 
and $10.1
 
million for the
 
second quarter,
 
and
those provision levels
 
were calculated using
 
a 6-month period
 
for the economic
 
statistics.
 
In the second
 
quarter, the
 
increase in
provision estimate was driven
 
by the forecasted economic
 
conditions getting worse than
 
what was expected at
 
the end of the first
quarter.
 
In addition, as of June 30,
 
we further increased our reserve for
 
a $3.4 million qualitative adjustment
 
based on an analysis
that incorporates the current forecasted peak levels of unemployment
 
and business bankruptcy.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
-51-
 
For the CVG and Working
 
Capital portfolio segments, our estimate
 
of increased losses is
 
based on qualitative adjustments,
 
taking
into consideration alternative
 
scenarios to determine
 
the Company’s
 
estimate of the
 
probable impact of
 
the economic shutdown.
 
The COVID-related provision for CVG was $2.8
 
million for the first quarter of 2020, and
 
$0.4 million for the second quarter.
 
The
COVID-related provision
 
for Working
 
Capital was
 
$5.5 million
 
for the
 
first quarter
 
of 2020,
 
and $1.5
 
million for
 
the second
quarter.
The qualitative and economic
 
adjustments to our allowance
 
take into consideration information
 
and our judgments
 
as of June 30,
2020, and are
 
based in part
 
on an expectation
 
for the extent
 
and timing of
 
impacts from COVID
 
-19 on unemployment
 
rates and
business bankruptcies, and
 
are based on
 
our current expectations
 
of the performance
 
of our portfolio
 
in the current
 
environment.
 
The COVID-19 pandemic,
 
and related business
 
shutdowns, is still
 
ongoing, and the
 
extent of the
 
effects of the
 
pandemic on our
portfolio depends on future developments, which
 
are highly uncertain and are difficult
 
to predict.
 
We may recognize
 
credit losses
in excess of
 
our reserve,
 
or increases
 
to our
 
credit loss estimate,
 
in the future,
 
and such increases
 
may be significant,
 
based on
future developments.
Net Charge-offs.
 
 
Equipment Finance
 
and TFG
 
receivables are
 
generally charged
 
-off when
 
they are
 
contractually past
 
due for
 
120 days
 
or more.
 
Working Capital receivables
 
are generally charged-off at 60 days past
 
due.
 
 
Total portfolio
 
net charge
 
-offs for
 
the three
 
months ended
 
June 30
 
,
 
2020 were
 
$8.5 million
 
(3.47%
 
of average
 
total finance
receivables on an
 
annualized basis), compared
 
to $7.7 million
 
(3.00%) for the
 
three months ended
 
December 31, 2019
 
,
 
and $4.9
million (1.8
 
8%) for
 
the three
 
months ended
 
June 30
 
,
 
2019.
 
Compared to
 
the same
 
quarter of
 
the prior
 
year, the
 
Company is
experiencing elevated
 
net charge
 
-offs, due
 
primarily to
 
economic headwinds
 
that already
 
existed as of
 
December 31,
 
2019 that
were disproportionally impacting the small business and lower
 
credit quality borrowers in
 
our portfolio.
 
Through the end of the second quarter,
 
our charge-offs are only slightly elevated compared
 
to the levels in December.
 
We believe
we have not yet begun to experience the full impact of expected
 
levels of elevated charge-offs as a result of the
 
COVID-19
pandemic.
 
However, we are seeing portfolio trends
 
that indicate that we will begin to realize those elevated
 
levels in the third
quarter of 2020.
 
As of June 30, 2020, our portfolio delinquency rates have doubled
 
from the quarter ended March 31, 2020, or a
$13.1 million increase in Equipment Finance leases and loans 60+
 
days past due, and $0.5 million increase in Working
 
capital
loans 30+ past due.
 
Further, a large amount of our
 
portfolio is under deferred payment through our modification program,
 
as
discussed above.
 
We are
 
continually monitoring the performance of our portfolio and assessing all related
 
risks to ensure that our
allowance estimate is sufficient to cover the expected
 
losses from COVID-19.
 
See further discussion with the Provision above
about the risks to our reserve estimate, and discussion with Portfolio
 
Trends above about current delinquency levels.
Residual Income.
 
 
Residual income
 
includes income
 
from lease
 
renewals and
 
gains and
 
losses on
 
the realization
 
of residual
 
values of
 
leased
equipment disposed at
 
the end of term
 
In 2019 and
 
prior years, t
he Company had previously
 
recognized residual income
 
within
Fee Income
 
in its
 
Consolidated Statement
 
s
 
of Operations;
 
the adoption
 
of CECL
 
results in
 
any realized
 
amounts of
 
residual
income being
 
captured as
 
a component
 
of the
 
activity of
 
the allowance
 
because the
 
Company’s estimate
 
of credit
 
losses under
CECL takes into consideration all cashflows the Company expects
 
to receive or derive from the pools of contracts.
 
 
Adoption of ASU 2016-13 / CECL.
 
 
Effective January 1,
 
2020, we adopted
 
new guidance for accounting

Credit Losses
 
(Topic
 
326): Measurement
 
of Credit
 
Losses on
 
Financial Instruments
 
(“CECL”).
 
CECL replaces
 
the probable/
incurred loss
 
model that
 
we historically
 
used to
 
measure our
 
allowance, with
 
a measurement
 
of expected
 
credit losses
 
for the
contractual term
 
of our
 
current portfolio
 
of loans
 
and leases.
 
Under CECL,
 
an allowance,
 
or estimate
 
of credit
 
losses, will be
recognized immediately
 
upon the origination
 
of a loan
 
or lease,
 
and will be
 
adjusted in each
 
subsequent reporting
 
period.
 
This
estimate of credit losses takes into consideration
 
all remaining cashflows the Company expects
 
to receive or derive from the pools
of contracts, including
 
recoveries after
 
charge-off, accrued
 
interest receivable and
 
certain future cashflows
 
from residual assets.
 
The provision
 
for credit
 
losses recognized
 
in our Consolidated
 
Statements of Operations
 
under CECL,
 
starting in
 
2020, will
 
be
primarily driven
 
by origination
 
volumes, offset
 
by the
 
reversal of
 
the allowance
 
for any
 
contracts sold,
 
plus adjustments
 
for
changes in
 
estimate each
 
subsequent reporting
 
period, including
 
adjustments for
 
economic forecasts
 
within a
 
reasonable and
supportable time period.

The impact
 
of adopting
 
CECL effective
 
January 1,
 
2020 included
 
a $11.9
 
million incr
 
ease to
 
the allowance,
 
an $8.9
 
million
decrease to
 
Retained earnings
 
and $3.0

Net deferred
 
income tax
 
liability.

of this accounting standard, and see
 
Note 6 –
Allowance for
Credit Losses
, for further
 
discussion of the
 
Company’s methodology
 
for measuring its
 
allowance as of
 
the adoption date.
 
Also,

, for discussion
 
of our election
 
to delay for
 
two-years the effect
 
of
CECL on regulatory capital, followed by a three-year phase
 
-in, or a five-year total transition.
 
Our recorded allowance
 
reflects our current
 
estimate of the
 
expected credit losses
 
of all contracts
 
currently in portfolio,
 
based on our
current assessment of information regarding the risks of our current portfolio,
 
default and collection trends, a reasonable and
supportable forecast
 
of economic
 
factors, qualitative
 
adjustments based
 
on our
 
best estimate
 
of expected
 
losses for
 
certain portfolio
segments, among
 
other internal
 
and external
 
factors.
 
Our allowance
 
measurement is
 
an estimate,
 
is inherently
 
uncertain, and
 
is
reassessed at each measurement date.
 
Actual performance of our portfolio and updates to other information
 
involved in our
assessment may drive
 
changes in modeled
 
assumptions, may cause
 
management to adjust
 
the allowance estimate
 
through qualitative
adjustments and/or may result in actual losses that vary significantly from
 
of our current estimate.

Comparison of the Three-Month Periods Ended June 30,
 
2020 and June 30, 2019
 
 
Net income.
 
Net loss of $5.9 million was reported for the three-month period
 
ended June 30, 2020,
 
resulting in diluted loss per share of $0.50,
compared to net income of $6.1 million and diluted EPS of $0.49
 
for the three-month period ended June 30, 2019.
 
This $12.0 million
decrease in Net income was primarily driven by:
-
 
($14.1 million) increase in Provision for credit losses, primarily driven
 
by updates to the Company’s
 
estimate, reflecting
forecasted economic conditions from
 
COVID-19 pandemic.
 
The Company adopted CECL on January 1, 2020 which
substantially changed its methodology for measuring the estimate of credit
 
loss.
 
See further discussion of the Provision and
the change in measurement in the prior section “—
Finance Receivables and Asset Quality”;
 
 
-
 
$3.9 million decrease in Interest and fee income, driven primarily by
 
a decline in the size of our finance receivable portfolio;
 
-
 
$3.3 million decrease in gains on leases and loans sold due to
 
a decrease in assets sold resulting from disruptions in the
capital markets during this current economic environment;
 
-
 
$4.8 million decrease in Salaries and benefits, driven primarily by lower
 
Commissions, Incentives and the Company’s
proactive cost reduction measures.

Changes due to volume and rate are calculated independently for each line item presented rather than presenting vertical subtotals for the
individual volume and rate columns.
 
Changes attributable to changes in volume represent changes in average balances multiplied by the
prior period’s average rates. Changes attributable to changes in rate represent changes in average rates multiplied by the prior year’s
average balances. Changes attributable to the combined impact of volume and rate have been allocated proportionately to the change due to
volume and the change due to rate.

Total finance receivables include net investment in leases and loans.
 
For the calculations above, the effects of (i) the allowance for credit losses
and (ii) initial direct costs and fees deferred are excluded.
 
 
Net interest and fee income decreased $2.9 million, or 12.0%,
 
to $21.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020
 
from $24.2
million for the three months ended June 30, 2019.
 
The annualized net interest and fee margin decreased 70
 
basis points to 8.68% in the
three-month period ended June 30, 2020 from 9.38% for the corresponding
 
period in 2019.
 
 
Interest income, net of amortized initial direct costs and fees,
 
was $24.2 million and $27.1 million for the three-month periods
 
ended
June 30, 2020 and June 30, 2019, respectively.
 
Average total
 
finance receivables decreased $52.5 million, or 5.1%,
 
to $979.3 million
at June 30, 2020 from $1,031.8 million at June 30, 2019
 
.
 
The decrease in average total finance receivables was primarily
 
due to lower
origination volume along with the customary loan repayments
 
and charge-offs. The average yield on the portfolio
 
decreased 60 basis
points to 9.90% from 10.50% in the prior year quarter.
 
The weighted average implicit interest rate on new finance receivables
originated decreased 378 basis points to 9.17% for
 
the three-month period ended June 30, 2020 compared to 12.95%
 
for the three-
month period ended June 30, 2019.
 
That decrease was primarily driven by a shift in the mix of originations
 
as higher-yield Working
Capital originations comprised 1% of our originations for the six months
 
ended June 30, 2020, compared to 13% in 2019.
 
The
reduction in Working Capital
 
volume is driven by our tightening of underwriting standards
 
in the second quarter in response to the
uncertain macroeconomic environment.
 
Given the ongoing health crisis in the United States, especially
 
the COVID-19 flare-ups in the
south and west, any returns to pre-pandemic levels of origination
 
activity, and our ability to
 
replenish or grow our portfolio, remains
uncertain.
 
Fee income was $2.5 million and $3.5 million for the three-month periods
 
ended June 30, 2020 and June 30, 2019,
 
respectively. Fee
income included approximately $0.9 million of net residual
 
income for the three-month period ended June 30,
 
2019.
 
For 2020, after
the adoption of CECL, all future cashflows from the Company’s
 
pools of loans are included in the measurement of the allowance,
including future cashflows from net residual income.
 
Amounts of residual income are presented within the rollforward
 
of the
Allowance, as discussed further in “—Finance Receivables and
 
Asset Quality”
 
 
Fee income also included approximately $1.8 million and $2.0
 
million in late fee income for the three-month periods ended
 
June 30,
2020 and June 30, 2019,
 
respectively. Late fees remained
 
the largest component of fee income at 0.69% as an annualized
 
percentage
of average total finance receivables for the three-month period
 
ended June 30, 2020,
 
compared to 0.78% for the three-month period
ended June 30, 2019.

Interest expense decreased $1.0 million to $5.4 million for the
 
three-month period ended June 30, 2020 from $6.4 million for
 
the
corresponding period in 2019, primarily due to a decrease
 
in interest expense of $0.6 million on lower outstanding long
 
-term
borrowings offset by an increase of $0.3 million on higher
 
deposit balances. Interest expense, as an annualized percentage
 
of average
total finance receivables, decreased 26 basis points to 2.22%
 
for the three-month period ended June 30, 2020,
 
from 2.48% for the
corresponding period in 2019.
 
The average balance of deposits was $943.9 million and $866.0
 
million for the three-month periods
ended June 30, 2020 and June 30, 2019,
 
respectively.
 
For the three-month period ended June 30, 2020,
 
average term securitization borrowings outstanding were $57.0
 
million at a weighted
average coupon of 4.30%.
 
For the three-month period ended June 30, 2019, average term securitization
 
borrowings outstanding were
$120.4 million at a weighted average coupon of 4.01%.
 
Our wholly-owned subsidiary,
 
MBB, serves as our primary funding source. MBB raises fixed
 
-rate and variable-rate FDIC-insured
deposits via the brokered certificates of deposit market, on a direct
 
basis, and through the brokered MMDA Product. At June 30,
 
2020,
brokered certificates of deposit represented approximately 52%
 
of total deposits, while approximately 43% of total deposits were
obtained from direct channels, and 6% were in the brokered
 
MMDA Product.
 
 
 
Gain on Sale of Leases and Loans.
 
Gain on sale of leases and loans was $0.1 million for the three
 
-month period ended June 30,
2020,
 
compared to $3.3 million for the three-month period ended June 30,
 
2019.
 
Assets sold decreased to $1.1 million for the three
months ended June 30, 2020, compared to $57.6 million for the three
 
months ended June 30, 2019.
 
Our sales execution decisions, including the timing, volu
 
me and frequency of such sales, depend on many factors including our
origination volumes, the characteristics of our contracts versus
 
market requirements, our current assessment of our balance
 
sheet
composition and capital levels, and current market conditions,
 
among other factors.
 
In the current slowing economy resulting from the
COVID-19 pandemic, we may have difficulty accessing
 
the capital market and may find decreased interest and ability
 
of
counterparties to purchase our contracts, or we may be unable
 
to negotiate terms acceptable to us.
 
 
Insurance premiums written and earned.
Insurance premiums written remained flat at $2.2 million for the three
 
-month periods ended
June 30, 2020 and June 30, 2019.
 
 
Other income.
 
Other income was $1.5 million and $1.7 million for the three-month periods
 
ended June 30, 2020 and June 30, 2019,
respectively. The decrease
 
in other income was primarily driven by a $0.2 million decrease
 
in servicing income.
 
 
Salaries and benefits expense.

38.4%, to $7.7 million for the three-month period ended
 
June 30, 2020 from
$12.5 million for the corresponding period in 2019
 
.
 
In mid-April 2020, we began efforts to tighten our expense base
 
in response
COVID-19, putting approximately 120 employees on furlough.
 
In June, we made the decision to permanently reduce our
 
workforce
by approximately 80 employees, which reduced our headcount to
 
approximately 250 employees at the end of July,
 
down from
approximately 350 employees as of December 31, 2019.
 
As such, our salary expense is $1.7 million lower than the three months
ended June 30, 2019,
 
primarily driven by reduced headcount from the furlough, partially offset
 
by $0.9 million of severance
recognized.
 
Incentive compensation decreased $2.0 million, driven by lower
 
recognized bonus and share-based compensation amounts
 
driven by
the Company’s operating results,
 
including reversing $0.7 million of expense associated with performance
 
-based RSU awards that are

now assessed as not probable of achievement.
 
The decrease in Commissions for the three months ended June
 
30, 2020 reflects a
lower amount of commission earned driven by 69% lower origination
 
volumes, which was fully offset by an annual commission
 
true-
up adjustment in 2020.

Our effective tax rate was 18.9% for the three-

Comparison of the Six-Month Periods Ended June 30, 2020
 
and June 30, 2019
 
 
Net income.
Net loss of $17.7 million was reported for the six-month period
 
ended June 30, 2020,
 
resulting in diluted loss per share of $1.50,
compared to net income of $11.3 million and diluted
 
EPS of $0.91 for the six-month period ended June 30,
 
2019. This $29.0 million
decrease in Net income was primarily driven by:
 
-
 
($33.8 million) increase in Provision for credit losses, primarily driven
 
by updates to the Company’s
 
estimate, reflecting
forecasted economic conditions from COVID-19 pandemic.
 
The Company adopted CECL on January 1, 2020 which
substantially changed its methodology for measuring the estimate of credit
 
loss.

the change in measurement in the prior section “—
Finance Receivables and Asset Quality”;

Total finance receivables
 
include net investment in leases and loans.
 
For the calculations above, the effects of (i)
 
the allowance
for credit losses and (ii) initial direct costs and fees deferred are
 
excluded.
 
 
Net interest and fee income decreased $3.3 million, or 6.9%
 
,
 
to $44.8 million for the six-month period ended June 30,
 
2020 from
$48.1 million for the six-month period ended June 30,
 
2019. The annualized net interest and fee margin decreased
 
46 basis points to
9.02% in the six-month period ended June 30, 2020
 
from 9.48% for the corresponding period in 2019.
 
 
Interest income, net of amortized initial direct costs and fees,
 
decreased $2.3 million, or 4.3%, to $50.7 million for the six-month
period ended June 30, 2020 from $53.0 million for the six-month period
 
ended June 30, 2019.
 
The decrease in interest income was
principally due to a
 
decrease in average yield of 23 basis points and by a 2.1%
 
decrease in average total finance receivables, which
decreased $21.5 million to $994.1 million for the six-months ended
 
June 30, 2020 from $1,015.6 million for the six-months ended
June 30, 2019.
 
The decrease in average total finance receivables was primarily due
 
to lower origination volume along with the
customary loan repayments and charge-offs
 
.
 
The weighted average implicit interest rate on new finance receivables
 
originated
decreased 140 basis points to 11.46%
 
for the six-month period ended June 30, 2020,
 
compared to 12.86% for the six-month period
ended June 30, 2019.
 
That decrease was primarily driven by a shift in the mix of originations
 
as higher-yield Working
 
Capital
originations comprised 11% of our originations
 
for the six months ended June 30, 2020, compared to 13%
 
in 2019.
 
As our origination
volumes have been negatively impacted by the COVID
 
-19 pandemic, our portfolio of finance receivables and related incomes
 
may
continue to decline. Any returns to normal levels of origination activity,
 
and our ability to replenish or grow our portfolio,
 
remains
uncertain.
 
Fee income was $5.2 million and $7.5 for the six-month periods
 
ended June 30, 2020 and June 30, 2019,
 
respectively. Fee income
included approximately $1.9 million of residual income for the
 
six-month period ended June 30, 2019.
 
For 2020, after the adoption of
CECL, all future cashflows from the Company’s
 
pools of loans are included in the measurement of the allowance,
 
including future
cashflows from net residual income.
 
Amounts of residual income are presented within the rollforward
 
of the Allowance, as discussed
further in “—Finance Receivables and Asset Quality”.

Fee income also included approximately $3.9 million in late fee income
 
for the six-month period ended June 30, 2020,
 
which
decreased 9.3% from $4.3 million for the six-month period ended
 
June 30, 2019.
 
Late fees remained the largest component of fee
income at 0.77% as an annualized percentage of average total finance receivables
 
for the six-month period ended June 30, 2020,
compared to 0.86% for the six-month period ended June 30,
 
2019.
 
Interest expense decreased $1.3 million to $11.1
 
million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2020 from $12.4
 
for the
corresponding period in 2019.
 
The decrease of $1.3 million was primarily due to a $1.0
 
million decrease in term securitization interest,
and a $0.2 million decrease in transaction costs. Interest expense,
 
as an annualized percentage of average total finance receivables,
decreased 21 basis points to 2.23% for the six-month period
 
ended June 30, 2020,
 
from 2.44% for the corresponding period in 2019.
The average balance of deposits was $891.2 million and $837.9
 
million for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2020 and June 30,
2019,
 
respectively.
 
For the six-month period ended June 30, 2020,
 
average term securitization borrowings outstanding were $63.4
 
million at a weighted
average coupon of 4.27%.
 
For the six-month period ended June 30, 2019,
 
average term securitization borrowings outstanding were
$130.5 million at a weighted average coupon of 3.96%
 
Our wholly-owned subsidiary,
 
MBB, serves as our primary funding source. MBB raises fixed
 
-rate and variable-rate FDIC-insured
deposits via the brokered certificates of deposit market, on a direct
 
basis, and through the brokered MMDA Product. At
 
June 30, 2020,
brokered certificates of deposit represented approximately 52%
 
of total deposits, while approximately 43% of total deposits were
obtained from direct channels, and 6% were in the brokered
 
MMDA Product.
 
 
 
Gain on Sale of Leases and Loans.
 
Gain on sale of leases and loans was 2.3 million for the six-month period
 
ended June 30, 2020,
compared to 6.9 million for the six-month period ended
 
June 30, 2019 due to a decline in assets sold to $24.1 million for the six-
month period ended June 30, 2020 from $110.5
 
million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2019.
 
 
Our sales execution decisions, including the timing, volume and
 
frequency of such sales, depend on many factors including our
origination volumes, the characteristics of our contracts versus
 
market requirements, our current assessment of our balance
 
sheet
composition and capital levels, and current market conditions,
 
among other factors.
 
In the current slowing economy resulting from the
COVID-19 pandemic, we may have difficulty accessing
 
the capital market and may find decreased interest and ability
 
of
counterparties to purchase our contracts, or we may be unable
 
to negotiate terms acceptable to us.
 
 
Insurance premiums written and earned.
Insurance premiums written and earned remained relatively flat at $4.5
 
million for the six-
month period ended June 30, 2020,
 
from $4.3 million for the six-month period ended June 30,
 
2019.
 
 
Other income.
 
Other income remained consistent at $9.1 million and $8.9 million for
 
the six-month periods ended June 30, 2020 and
June 30, 2019,
 
respectively.
 
 
Salaries and benefits expense.

Salaries and benefits expense in total decreased $6.7 million for
 
the six months ended June 30, 2020, compared to the corresponding
period in 2019.
 
In mid-April 2020, we began efforts to tighten our expense base
 
in response COVID-19, putting approximately 120
employees on furlough.
 
In June, we made the decision to permanently reduce our workforce
 
by approximately 80 employees, which
reduced our headcount to approximately 250 employees at the
 
end of July, down from approximately
 
350 employees as of December

31, 2019.
 
As such, our salary expense was $1.4 million lower for the six-months
 
ended June 30, 2020 than for the six months ended
June 30, 2019,
 
primarily driven by reduced headcount from the furlough, partially offset
 
by $0.9 million of severance recognized.
 
Incentive compensation decreased $3.5 million, driven by lower
 
recognized bonus and share-based compensation amounts
 
primarily
driven by the Company’s operating
 
results, including reversing $0.7 million of expense associated
 
with performance-based RSU
awards that are now assessed as not probable of achievement.
 
Commissions decreased $2.7 million primarily driven by a 45%
decrease in origination volume.

General and administrative expense of $19.4 million for the six months
 
ended June 30, 2020 was relatively consistent with the total
from the corresponding period in 2019.
 
General and administrative expense as an annualized percentage of average
 
total finance
receivables was 3.56% for the six-month period ended
 
June 30, 2020,
 
compared to 3.82% for the six-month period ended June 30,
2019.
 
 
Goodwill impairment.
 
In the first quarter of 2020, driven by negative current events related
 
to the COVID-19 economic shutdown,
our market capitalization falling below book value and other
 
related impacts, we analyzed goodwill for impairment.
 
We concluded
that the implied fair value of goodwill was less than it’s
 
carrying amount, and recognized impairment equal to the entire $6.7
 
million
balance in the six months ended June 30, 2020.
 
Provision for income taxes.
Income tax benefit of 8.8 million was recorded for the six-month period
 
ended June 30, 2020,
 
compared
to expense of $3.6 million for the six-month period ended
 
June 30, 2019.
 
 
Our effective tax rate from measuring our benefit for
 
the six months ended June 30, 2020 was 33.2%,
 
driven by a $3.2 million discrete
benefit from certain provisions in the CARES Act that allowed
 
for remeasuring our federal net operating losses.
 
The impact to our
effective rate from that benefit was partially offset
 
by a limitation on the amount of tax benefits that can be recognized
 
in an interim
period under ASC 740.

Our business requires a substantial amount of liquidity and capital
 
to operate and grow. Our
 
primary liquidity need is to fund new
originations; however, we also utilize liquidity
 
for our financing needs (including our deposits and long term deposits),
 
to fund
infrastructure and technology investment, to pay dividends and
 
to pay administrative and other non-interest expenses.
 
 
As a result of the uncertainties surrounding the actual and potential impacts
 
of COVID-19 on our business and financial condition, in
the first quarter of 2020 we raised additional liquidity through the issuance
 
of FDIC-insured deposits and we increased our borrowing
capacity at the Federal Reserve Discount Window.
 
 
We are
 
dependent upon the availability of financing from a variety of funding
 
sources to satisfy these liquidity needs. Historically,
 
we
have relied upon five principal types of external funding sources
 
for our operations:
 
 
 
FDIC-insured deposits issued by our wholly-owned subsidiary,
 
MBB;
 
 
 
borrowings under various bank facilities;
 
 
 
financing of leases and loans in various warehouse facilities (all
 
of which have since been repaid in full);
 
 
financing of leases through term note securitizations; and
 
• sale of leases and loans through our capital markets capabilities.
 
Deposits issued by MBB represent our primary funding source
 
for new originations, primarily through the issuance of FDIC insured
deposits.
 
 
MBB also offers an FDIC-insured MMDA Product
 
as another source of deposit funding. This product is offered
 
through participation
in a partner bank’s insured savings
 
account product to clients of that bank.
 
It is a brokered account with a variable interest rate,
recorded as a single deposit account at MBB. Over time, MBB
 
may offer other products and services to the Company’s
 
customer base.
MBB is a Utah state-chartered, Federal Reserve member commercial
 
bank. As such, MBB is supervised by both the Federal
 
Reserve
Bank of San Francisco and the Utah Department of Financial
 
Institutions.
 
We declared
 
a dividend of $0.14 per share on April 30, 2020.
 
The quarterly dividend was paid on May 21, 2020 to shareholders
 
of
record on the close of business on May 11,
 
2020,
 
which resulted in a dividend payment of approximately $1.7 million. It
 
represented
the Company’s thirty-fifth consecutive
 
quarterly cash dividend.
 
 
At June 30, 2020,
 
we had approximately $25.0 million of available borrowing capacity from
 
a federal funds line of credit with a
correspondent bank in addition to available cash and cash equivalents
 
of $211.7 million. This amount excludes ad
 
ditional liquidity that
may be provided by the issuance of insured deposits through
 
MBB.
 
Our debt to equity ratio was 5.27 to 1 at June 30,
 
2020 and 4.26 to 1 at December 31, 2019.
 
Net cash provided by investing activities was $32.6 million for
 
the six-month period ended June 30, 2020,
 
compared to net cash used
in investing activities of $76.0 million for the six-month period
 
ended June 30, 2019.
 
The increase in cash outflows from investing
activities is primarily due to a decrease of $180.4 million for
 
purchases of equipment for lease contracts partially offset by
 
a reduction
of $66.1 million in proceeds from sales of leases originated for
 
investment. The decrease in purchases of equipment was driven
 
by
lower origination volumes for the six months ended June 30
 
,
 
2020 compared to the corresponding period of 2019, and
 
the reduction in
proceeds from sales was driven by lower volumes of sales.
 
Net cash provided by financing activities was $29.7 million for
 
the six-month period ended June 30, 2020,
 
compared to net cash
provided by financing activities of $85.7 million for the six-month period
 
ended June 30, 2019.
 
The decrease in cash flows from
financing activities is primarily due to a decrease of $69.8
 
million in deposits offset by a decrease of $15.4
 
million of term
securitization repayments.
 
Financing activities also include transactions related to
 
the Company’s payment of divi
 
dends.
 
 
Net cash provided by operating activities was $25.4 million for
 
the six-month period ended June 30, 2020,
 
compared to net cash
provided by operating activities of $27.0 million for the six-month period
 
ended June 30, 2019.
 
Transactions affecting net
 
cash
provided by operating activities including goodwill impairment,
 
provision
 
for credit losses, changes in income tax liability and leases
originated for sale and proceeds thereof are discussed in detail in the
 
notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

We expect
 
cash from operations, additional borrowings on existing and future
 
credit facilities and funds from deposits issued through
brokers, direct deposit sources,
 
and the MMDA Product to be adequate to support our operations and
 
projected growth for the next 12
months and the foreseeable future.
 
 
Total
 
Cash and Cash Equivalents.
Our objective is to maintain an adequate level of cash, investing
 
any free cash in leases and loans.
We primarily fund
 
our originations and growth using FDIC-insured deposits issued
 
through MBB. Total
 
cash and cash equivalents
available as of June 30, 2020 totaled $211.7
 
million, compared to $123.1 million at December 31, 2019
 
.
 
 
Time Deposits with Banks.
 
Time deposits with banks are primarily composed
 
of FDIC-insured certificates of deposits that have
original maturity dates of greater than 90 days. Generally,
 
the certificates of deposits have the ability to redeem early,
 
however, early
redemption penalties may be incurred. Total
 
time deposits as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 totaled
 
$9.9 million and $12.9
million, respectively.
 
Restricted Interest-Earning Deposits with Banks
. As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019
 
,
 
we had $6.1 million and $6.9 million,
respectively, of cash that was
 
classified as restricted interest-earning deposits with banks. Restricted
 
interest-earning deposits with
banks consist primarily of various trust accounts related to our secured
 
debt facilities. Therefore, these balances generally
 
decline as
the term securitization borrowings are repaid.
 
 
Borrowings.
Our primary borrowing relationship requires the pledging of
 
eligible lease and loan receivables to secure amounts
advanced. Our secured borrowings amounted to $51.2
 
million at June 30, 2020 and $76.6 million at December 31, 2019
 
.

Federal Funds Line of Credit with Correspondent Bank
 
MBB has established a federal funds line of credit with a correspondent
 
bank. This line allows for both selling and purchasing of
federal funds. The amount that can be drawn against the line
 
is limited to $25.0 million.
 
 
Federal Reserve Discount Window
 
 
In addition, MBB has received approval to borrow from the
 
Federal Reserve Discount Window based on the
 
amount of assets MBB
chooses to pledge. MBB had $50.2 million in unused, secured
 
borrowing capacity at the Federal Reserve Discount Window

2020.
 
Term
 
Note Securitizations
On July 27, 2018 we completed a $201.7 million asset-backed
 
term securitization. It provides the company with fixed-cost borrowing
with the objective of diversifying its funding sources and is recorded
 
in long-term borrowings in the Consolidated Balance Sheet.
 
In connection with this securitization transaction, we transferred
 
leases to our bankruptcy remote special purpose wholly-owned
subsidiary (“SPE”) and issued term debt collateralized
 
by such commercial leases to institutional investors in a private securities
offering. The SPE is considered variable interest entit
 
y
 
(“VIE”) under U.S. GAAP.
 
We continue to
 
service the assets of our VIE and
retain equity and/or residual interests. Accordingly,
 
assets and related debt of the VIE is included in the accompanying
 
Consolidated
Balance Sheets.
 
At June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 outstanding term securitizations
 
amounted to $50.9 million and $76.1
million, respectively and the Company was in compliance with terms
 
of the term note securitization agreement. See Note 10
 
– Debt
and Financing Arrangements in the accompanying Consolidated
 
Financial Statements for detailed information regarding of our term

Bank Capital and Regulatory Oversight
 
 
We are
 
subject to regulation under the Bank Holding Company Act and all of our
 
subsidiaries may be subject to examination by the
Federal Reserve Board and the Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia
 
even if not otherwise regulated by the Federal Reserve Board.
 
MBB is also subject to comprehensive federal and state regulations
 
dealing with a wide variety of subjects, including minimum capital
standards, reserve requirements, terms on which a bank may engage
 
in transactions with its affiliates, restrictions as
 
to dividend
payments and numerous other aspects of its operations.
 
These regulations generally have been adopted
 
to protect depositors and
creditors rather than shareholders.

MARKET INTEREST RATE
 
RISK AND SENSITIVITY
 
 
Market risk is the risk of losses arising from changes in values of financial
 
instruments. We
 
engage in transactions in the normal
course of business that expose us to market risks. We
 
attempt to mitigate such risks through prudent management practices
 
and
strategies such as attempting to match the expected cash flows of
 
our assets and liabilities.
 
We are
 
exposed to market risks associated with changes in interest rates and
 
our earnings may fluctuate with changes in interest rates.
 
The lease and loan assets we originate are almost entirely fixed
 
-rate. Accordingly, we generally
 
seek to finance these assets primarily
with fixed interest certificates of deposit issued by MBB,
 
and to a lesser extent through the variable rate MMDA Product
 
at MBB.

OLICIES
 
 
There have been no significant changes to our Critical Accounting Policies
 
as described in our Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 2019,
 
other than as discussed below.
Allowance for credit losses.
 
For 2019 and prior, we maintained an allowance
 
for credit losses at an amount sufficient to absorb
 
losses inherent in our existing lease
and loan portfolios as of the reporting dates based on our estimate of probable
 
incurred net credit losses in accordance with the
Contingencies
 
Topic of the FASB
 
ASC.
 
See further discussion of our policy under the incurred
 
model in the “Critical Accounting
Policy” section of our 2019 Form 10-K.
Effective January 1, 2020, we adopted ASU 2016
 
-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic
 
326): Measurement of Credit
Losses on Financial Instruments (“CECL”), which changed our
 
accounting policy and estimated allowance.
 
CECL replaces the
probable, incurred loss model with a measurement of expected
 
credit losses for the contractual term of the Company’s
 
current
portfolio of loans and leases.
 
After the adoption of CECL, an allowance, or estimate of credit
 
losses, will be recognized immediately
upon the origination of a loan or lease, and will be adjusted in each subsequent
 
reporting period
We maintain an
 
allowance for credit losses at an amount that takes into consideration
 
all future cashflows that we expect to receive or
derive from the pools of contracts, including recoveries after
 
charge-off, amounts related to initial direct cost
 
and origination costs net
of fees deferred, and certain future cashflows from residual assets.
 
A provision is charged against earnings to maintain the allowance
for credit losses at the appropriate level.
 
We developed
 
a consistent, systematic methodology to measure our estimate of the credi
 
t
 
losses inherent in our current portfolio, over
the entire life of the contracts.
 
We made certain key decisions
 
that underlie our methodology,
 
including our decisions of how to
aggregate our portfolio into pools for analysis based on similar
 
risk characteristics, the selection of appropriate historical loss data
 
to
reference in the model, our selection of a model to calculate the
 
estimate, a reasonable and supportable forecast, and the length of
 
our
forecast and approach to reverting to historical loss data.
 
For our Equipment Finance segment, we determine our reasonable
 
and supportable forecast based on certain economic variables
 
that
were selected based on a statistical analysis of our own historical
 
loss experience, going back to 2004. We
 
selected unemployment rate
and changes in the number of business bankruptcies as our economic variables,
 
based on an analysis of the correlation of changes in
those variables to our loss experience over time.
 
As part
 
of our estimate of expected credit losses, specific to each measurement
 
date, management considers relevant qualitative and
quantitative factors to assess whether the historical loss experience
 
being referenced should be adjusted to better reflect the risk
characteristics of the current portfolio and the expected future
 
loss experience for the life of these contracts.
 
This assessment
incorporates all available information relevant to considering the collectability
 
of our current portfolio, including considering
economic and business conditions, default trends, changes in
 
portfolio composition, changes in lending policies and practices,
 
among
other internal and external factors.
 
Further, each measurement period we determine
 
whether to separate any loans from their current
pool for individual analysis based on their unique risk characteristics.
 
Our approach to estimating qualitative adjustments takes into
consideration all significant current information we believe appropriate
 
to reflect the changes and risks in the portfolio or environment
and involves significant judgment.
 
 
 
 
 
-69-
 
Our estimates of expected net credit losses are inherently uncertain,
 
and as a result we cannot predict with certainty the amount of
such losses. We
 
may recognize
 
credit losses in excess of our reserve, or a significant increase to
 
our credit loss estimate, in the future,
driven by the update of assumptions and information underlying our
 
estimate and/or driven by the actual amount of realized
 
losses.
 
Our estimate of credit losses will be revised each period
 
to reflect current information, including current forecasts of economic
conditions, changes in the risk characteristics and composition of the portfolio,
 
and emerging trends in our portfolio, among other
factors, and these updates for current information could drive
 
a significant adjustment to our reserve.
 
Further, actual credit losses may
exceed our estimated reserve, and such excess may be significant,
 
if the actual performance of our portfolio differs signif
 
icantly from
the current assumptions and judgements, including those underlying our
 
forecast and qualitative adjustments, as of any given
measurement date.

to
allow timely decisions regarding disclosure.
 
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
 
There were no changes in the Company’s
 
internal control over financial reporting identified
 
in connection with management’s
evaluation that occurred during the Company's second fiscal
 
quarter of 2020 that have materially affected, or are
 
reasonably likely to

internal control over financial reporting.
 
 
 
 
 
 
PART
 
II. Other Information
 
 
 
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
 
 
We are
 
party to various legal proceedings, which include claims and litigation arising
 
in the ordinary course of business.
 
In the
opinion of management, these actions will not have a material impact on
 
our business, financial condition,
 
results of operations or
cash flows.
 
 
 
Item 1A. Risk Factors
 
There have been no material changes in the risk factors disclosed
 
in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year
 
ended December 31, 2019,
other than as discussed below.
The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and measures intended to
 
prevent its spread could have a material adverse effect
 
on our
business, results of operations and financial condition, and
 
such effects will depend on future developments, which are
 
highly
uncertain and are difficult to predict.
Global health concerns relating to the COVID-19 pandemic and
 
related government actions taken to reduce the spread of
 
the virus
have been weighing on the macroeconomic environment, and
 
the outbreak has significantly increased economic uncertainty and
 
 
 
-71-
 
reduced economic activity. The
 
pandemic has resulted in authorities implementing numerous measures
 
to try to contain the virus, such
as travel bans and restrictions, quarantines, shelter in place or
 
total lock-down orders and business limitations and shutdowns. Such
measures have significantly contributed to rising unemployment
 
and negatively impacted consumer and business spending. The
United States government has taken steps to attempt to mitigate
 
some of the more severe anticipated economic effects of
 
the virus,
including the passage of the CARES Act, but there can be no
 
assurance that such steps will be effective or achieve their
 
desired results
in a timely fashion.
 
We continue to monitor
 
and evaluate newly enacted and proposed government and banking
 
regulations issued in
response to the COVID-19 pandemic; further changes in regulation that
 
impact our business or that impact our customers could
 
have a
significant impact on our future operations and business strategies.
Our operations and financial results have already been negatively
 
impacted as a result of COVID-19 pandemic, as discussed
 
further in
“Part I – Item 2. Management’s
 
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
 
Operations —Overview” and ”—
Results of Operations”.
 
The pandemic, reduction in economic activity,
 
and current business limitations and shutdowns have increased
risks to our business that include, but are not limited to:
 
Credit Risk.
 
We extend
 
credit primarily to small and mid-sized businesses, and many of
 
our customers may be particularly
susceptible to business limitations, shutdowns and possible recessions
 
and may be unable to make scheduled lease or loan
payments during these periods and may be at risk of discontinuing
 
their operations.
 
As a result, our delinquencies and credit
losses may substantially increase.
 
Our risk and exposure to future losses may be amplified to
 
the extent economic activity
remains shutdown for an extended period, or to the extent businesses
 
have limited operations or are unable to return to
normal levels of activity after the restrictions are lifted.
Our estimate of expected future credit losses recognized within our
 
allowance as of June 30,
 
2020 is based on certain
assumptions, forecasts and estimates about the impact of current
 
economic conditions on our portfolio of receivables based
on information known as of June 30,
 
2020, including certain expectations about the extent and timing of impacts
 
from
COVID-19.
 
If those assumptions, forecasts or estimates underlying our financial statements
 
are incorrect, we may
experience significant losses as the ultimate realization of value, or
 
revisions to our estimates, may be materially different
than the amounts reflected in our consolidated statement of financial
 
position as of any particular date.
 
 
Portfolio Risk.
 
We are
 
currently experiencing a significant decrease in demand for our lease and
 
loan products as a result of
the COVID-19 pandemic, and we have limited visibility to the future
 
recovery of such demand.
 
We have shifted
 
the focus of portions of our operations and certain personnel
 
to implement specific programs and new
products in response to the pandemic.
 
In particular, we have focused efforts
 
on loan modifications and a payment deferral
program, implemented a new PPP loan product, and increased
 
customer service efforts to respond to our borrower’s
 
needs.
There can be no assurances that such efforts will be
 
successful in mitigating any risk of credit loss.
 
 
Liquidity and Capital Risk.
 
As of June 30,
 
2020, all of our capital ratios, and our subsidiary bank’s
 
capital ratios, were in
excess of all regulatory requirements.
 
While we currently have sufficient capital, our reported
 
and regulatory capital ratios
could be adversely impacted by further credit losses and other
 
COVID-19 related impacts on our operations.
 
We are
managing the evolving risks of our business while closely monitoring
 
and forecasting the potential impacts of COVID-19 on
our future operations and financial position, including capital levels.
 
However, given the uncertainty about
 
future
developments and the extent and duration of the impacts of COVID
 
-19 on our business and future operations, we face
elevated risks to our ability to forecast and estimate future capital
 
levels.
 
If we fail to meet capital requirements in the future,
our business, financial condition or results of operations may be
 
adversely affected.
 
We have historically returned
 
capital to shareholders through normal dividends, special dividends and
 
share repurchases.
There can be no assurances that these forms of capital returns are
 
the optimal use of our capital or that they will continue in
the future.
 
Operational Risk.
 
The spread of COVID-19 has caused us to modify our business practices
 
(including implementing certain
business continuity plans, and developing work from home and
 
social distancing plans for our employees), and we may take
further actions as may be required by government authorities
 
or as we determine are in the best interests of our employees,
customers and business partners.
 
We face increased
 
risk of any operational or procedural failures due to changes in our
normal business practices necessitated by the pandemic.
These factors may remain prevalent for a significant period of
 
time and may continue to adversely affect our business,
 
results of
operations and financial condition even after the COVID-19 pandemic
 
has subsided.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
-72-
 
The extent to which the coronavirus pandemic impacts our business,
 
results of operations and financial condition will depend on
future developments, which are highly uncertain and are difficult
 
to predict, including, but not limited to, the duration and
 
spread of
the outbreak, its severity, the
 
actions to contain the virus or treat its impact, and how quickly
 
and to what extent normal economic and
operating conditions can resume. Even after the COVID-19
 
pandemic has subsided, we may continue to experience materially
 
adverse
impacts to our business as a result of the virus’s
 
global economic impact, including the availability of credit, adverse
 
impacts on our
liquidity and any recession that has occurred or may occur in
 
the future.
 
There are no comparable recent events that provide guidance as to
 
the effect the spread of COVID-19 as a global pandemic may
 
have,
and, as a result, the ultimate impact of the outbreak is highly
 
uncertain and subject to change. We
 
do not yet know the full extent of
the impacts on our business, our operations or the global economy
 
as a whole. However, the effects
 
could have a material impact on
our results of operations and heighten many of our known risks described
 
in the “Risk Factors” section of our Annual Report on

Information on Stock Repurchases
 
On August 1, 2019, the Company’s
 
Board of Directors approved a stock repurchase plan (the “2019
 
Repurchase Plan”) under which
the Company is authorized to repurchase up to $10 million in value of its
 
outstanding shares of common stock. This authority may be
exercised from time to time and in such amounts as market conditions
 
warrant. Any shares purchased under this plan are returned to
the status of authorized but unissued shares of common stock. The
 
repurchases may be made on the open market, in block trades or
otherwise. The stock repurchase program does not obligate the Company
 
to acquire any particular amount of common stock, and
 
it
may be suspended
 
at any time at the Company's discretion. The repurchases are funded
 
using the Company’s working
 
capital.
 
 
The Company did not repurchase any of its common stock during the
 
three months ended June 30, 2020.
 
As of June 30, 2020,
 
the
Company had $4.7 million remaining in the 2019 Repurchase Plan.
 
Pursuant to the 2014 Equity Compensation Plan, participants
 
may have shares withheld to cover income taxes. There were 1,897
shares repurchased to cover income tax withholding in connection
 
with the shares granted under the 2014 Equity Compensation Plan
during the three-month period ended June 30, 2020,
 
at an average cost of $ 6.50 per share.

This STOCK AWARD
 
AGREEMENT, dated as of ____________ (the “Date of Grant”), is
 
delivered by
Marlin Business Services Corp. (the “Company”) to ____________ (the “Grantee”).
 
RECITALS
A.
 
The Marlin Business Services Corp.
 
2019 Equity Compensation Plan
 
(the “Plan”) provides for the
 
grant
of stock awards in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Plan.
 
B.
 
The Board of
 
Directors of
 
the Company (the
 
“Board”) has
 
decided to make
 
a stock
 
award grant as
 
an
inducement for the Grantee to promote
 
the best interests of the Company and
 
its shareholders and the terms and
conditions of such stock
 
award shall be memorialized
 
in this Stock
 
Award Agreement
 
(this “Agreement”). The
Grantee may receive a copy of the Plan by contacting ____________, at ____________.
 
NOW,
 
THEREFORE, the terms and conditions of this Agreement are as follows:
1. Stock Award
 
Grant. Subject
 
to the
 
terms and
 
conditions set
 
forth in
 
this Agreement
 
and the
 
Plan, the
Board hereby
 
grants the
 
Grantee ____________
 
shares of
 
common stock
 
of the
 
Company, subject
 
to the
restrictions set forth
 
below and in
 
the Plan (“Restricted
 
Stock”).
 
Shares of Restricted
 
Stock may not
 
be transferred
by the Grantee
 
or subjected to
 
any security interest
 
until the shares
 
have become vested
 
pursuant to this
 
Agreement
and the Plan.
2. Vesting
 
and Nonassignability of Restricted Stock.
(a) The
 
shares of Restricted Stock
 
shall become fully vested,
 
and the restrictions described
 
in Paragraphs 2(b)
and 2(c)
 
shall lapse,
 
on [seven
 
years from
 
the grant
 
date] (the
 
“Vesting
 
Date”), if
 
the Grantee
 
continues to
 
a
member of the board of the Company from the Date of Grant to the applicable Vesting
 
Date.
 
(b)
 
If the Grantee’s
 
service with the
 
Company as a
 
non-employee director on
 
the Board terminates
 
for any
reason before the
 
Restricted Stock
 
is fully vested,
 
the shares of
 
Restricted Stock that
 
are not then
 
vested shall
fully vest six months following the Grantee's termination of service on the Board.
 
(c)
 
During the period
 
before the
 
shares of Restricted
 
Stock vest
 
(the “Restriction Period”),
 
the non-vested
Restricted Stock may
 
not be sold,
 
assigned, transferred, pledged
 
or otherwise disposed
 
of by the
 
Grantee. Any
attempt to sell, assign,
 
transfer, pledge or
 
otherwise dispose of the
 
shares contrary to the
 
provisions hereof, and
the levy of any execution, attachment or similar process upon the shares, shall be null, void and without effect.
3. Issuance of Certificates.
(a) Stock
 
certificates representing the Restricted Stock may be
 
issued by the Company and held in escrow by
the Company until
 
the Restricted Stock
 
vests, or the
 
Company may hold
 
non-certificated restricted shares
 
until
the Restricted Stock
 
vests. During the
 
Restriction Period, the
 
Grantee shall receive
 
any cash dividends
 
with respect
to the shares of Restricted Stock, may vote the shares of Restricted Stock and may participate in any distribution
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
pursuant to a
 
plan of dissolution
 
or complete liquidation
 
of the Company. In the
 
event of a
 
dividend or distribution
payable in stock or other property or a reclassification, split up or
 
similar event during the Restriction Period, the
shares or
 
other property
 
issued or
 
declared with
 
respect to
 
the non
 
-vested shares
 
of Restricted
 
Stock shall
 
be
subject to the same terms and conditions relating to vesting as the shares to which they relate.
 
(b)
 
When the Grantee obtains a vested right to shares of Restricted Stock,
 
vested shares shall be issued to the
Grantee (either in certificated
 
or non-certificated form, in the
 
Company's discretion), free of
 
the restrictions under
Section 2 of this Agreement.
 
(c)
 
The obligation of the Company to deliver shares upon the vesting of the Restricted Stock shall be subject
to all applicable
 
laws, rules, and
 
regulations and such
 
approvals by governmental
 
agencies as may
 
be deemed
appropriate to comply with relevant securities laws and regulations.
4. Change of
 
Control. The
 
provisions of
 
the Plan
 
applicable to
 
a Change
 
of Control
 
shall apply
 
to the
Restricted Stock, and,
 
in the event
 
of a Change
 
of Control, the
 
Board may take
 
such actions as
 
it deems appropriate
pursuant to the Plan.
5. Grant Subject
 
to Plan
 
Provisions. This
 
grant is
 
made pursuant
 
to the
 
Plan, the
 
terms of
 
which are
incorporated herein by reference, and in all respects shall be
 
interpreted in accordance with the Plan. The grant is
subject to interpretations,
 
regulations and determinations
 
concerning the Plan
 
established from time
 
to time by

rights and obligations with respect to withholding taxes, (ii) the registration, qualification
 
or listing of the shares,
(iii) changes in
 
capitalization of the
 
Company, and
 
(iv) other requirements
 
of applicable law.
 
The Board shall
have the authority to interpret and construe
 
the grant pursuant to the terms
 
of the Plan, and its decisions shall
 
be
conclusive as to any questions arising
 
hereunder. By accepting this
 
grant, the Grantee agrees to be
 
bound by the
terms of the Plan
 
and this Agreement
 
and that all decisions
 
and determinations of the
 
Board with respect to
 
the
Grant shall be final and binding on the Grantee and the Grantee's beneficiaries.
6. Withholding.
 
If required by applicable law, the Grantee shall be required to
 
pay to the Company, or make
other arrangements satisfactory to
 
the Company to
 
provide for the payment
 
of, any federal, state,
 
local or other
taxes that the Employer is required to withhold with respect to the grant or vesting of the Restricted Stock.
7. Restrictions on Sale or Transfer of Shares.
(a) The
 
Grantee will not sell, transfer,
 
pledge, donate, assign, mortgage, hypothecate or otherwise encumber
the shares underlying this grant
 
unless the shares are registered
 
under the Securities Act of 1933,
 
as amended (the
“Securities Act”) or the Company
 
is given an opinion of counsel
 
reasonably acceptable to the Company
 
that such
registration is not required under the Securities Act.
 
(b)
 
The Grantee agrees to be bound by the
 
Company's policies regarding the limitations on the transfer of
 
the
shares subject to this grant and
 
understands that there may be certain
 
times during the year that the
 
Grantee will
be prohibited from
 
selling, transferring, pledging,
 
donating, assigning, mortgaging,
 
hypothecating or otherwise
encumbering the shares.
 
The Grantee also
 
acknowledges and agrees
 
that this grant
 
is subject to
 
any applicable
clawback, recoupment or other policies relating to shares of common stock of the Company implemented
 
by the
Board or the Company, as in effect from time to
 
time.
8. No Employment or Other Rights. This grant shall not confer upon the Grantee any right to be retained by
or in the employ
 
or service of the
 
Employer (as defined in
 
the Plan) and shall
 
not interfere in any
 
way with the
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
right of the Employer to terminate the Grantee's
 
employment or service at any time. The right of
 
the Employer to
terminate at will the Grantee's employment or service at any time for any reason is specifically reserved.

and protections
 
of the

may be assigned by the Company without the Grantee's consent.
10. Applicable Law.
 
The validity, construction, interpretation

Commonwealth of Pennsylvania,
