NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)
|
Note 1.
|
Accounting Policies
|
The interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Federal Agricultural Mortgage Corporation (“Farmer Mac” or the “Corporation”) and subsidiaries have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). These interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all normal and recurring adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary to present a fair statement of the financial position and the results of operations and cash flows of Farmer Mac and subsidiaries for the interim periods presented. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the annual consolidated financial statements have been condensed or omitted as permitted by SEC rules and regulations. On June 1, 2011, Farmer Mac filed with the SEC an amendment to its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010 to correct prior misclassifications of proceeds from the repayments of certain loans between operating activities and investing activities on the consolidated statements of cash flows. These misclassifications had no impact on the net increase or decrease in cash and cash equivalents as previously reported and had no effect on Farmer Mac’s previously issued condensed consolidated interim or annual consolidated balance sheets, statements of operations or statements of equity. See Note 1(a) for further information. The December 31, 2010 condensed consolidated balance sheet presented in this report has been derived from the Corporation’s audited 2010 consolidated financial statements. Management believes that the disclosures are adequate to present fairly the condensed consolidated financial statements as of the dates and for the periods presented. These interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the 2010 consolidated financial statements of Farmer Mac and subsidiaries included in the Corporation’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010 filed with the SEC on March 16, 2011, as amended by Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-K/A filed on June 1, 2011. Results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of those that may be expected for the fiscal year. Below is a summary of Farmer Mac’s significant accounting policies.
Principles of Consolidation
The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Farmer Mac and its two subsidiaries: (1) Farmer Mac Mortgage Securities Corporation (“FMMSC”), whose principal activities are to facilitate the purchase and issuance of Farmer Mac Guaranteed Securities and to act as a registrant under registration statements filed with the SEC, and (2) Farmer Mac II LLC, whose principal activity is the operation of substantially all of the business related to the Farmer Mac II program – primarily the acquisition of the portions of loans (the “USDA-guaranteed portions”) guaranteed by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (“USDA”) presented as “USDA Guaranteed Securities” on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Farmer Mac II LLC was formed as a Delaware limited liability company on December 10, 2009. The business operations of Farmer Mac II LLC began in January 2010. The condensed consolidated financial statements also include the accounts of variable interest entities (“VIEs”) in which Farmer Mac determined itself to be the primary beneficiary. See Note 2(g) for more information on consolidated VIEs.
-7-
A Farmer Mac guarantee of timely payment of principal and interest is an explicit element of the terms of all Farmer Mac Guaranteed Securities. When Farmer Mac retains such securities in its portfolio, that guarantee is not extinguished. For Farmer Mac Guaranteed Securities in the Corporation’s portfolio, Farmer Mac has entered into guarantee arrangements with FMMSC. The guarantee fee rate established between Farmer Mac and FMMSC is an element in determining the fair value of these Farmer Mac Guaranteed Securities, and guarantee fees related to these securities are reflected in guarantee and commitment fees in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. These guarantee fees totaled $2.4 million and $6.5 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, respectively, compared to $1.5 million and $4.7 million for the same periods in 2010, respectively. The corresponding expense of FMMSC has been eliminated against interest income in consolidation. All other inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
(a) Cash and Cash Equivalents and Statements of Cash Flows
Farmer Mac considers highly liquid investment securities with maturities at the time of purchase of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents is a reasonable estimate of their fair value. Changes in the balance of cash and cash equivalents are reported in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. The following table sets forth information regarding certain cash and non-cash transactions for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010.

Effective January 1, 2011, Farmer Mac transferred $878.8 million of loans in the Farmer Mac I program from held for sale to held for investment because Farmer Mac no longer has the intent to securitize or sell these loans in the foreseeable future. Farmer Mac transferred these loans at their cost, which was lower than the estimated fair value at the time of transfer.
At the time of purchase, loans are classified as either held for sale or held for investment depending upon management’s intent and ability to hold the loans for the foreseeable future. On two occasions, once in first quarter 2009 and again in first quarter 2011, consistent with a change in management’s intent, Farmer Mac reclassified loans from one classification to the other on the balance sheet. Prior to first quarter 2011, cash receipts from the repayment of loans were classified within the statements of cash flows consistent with the then-current balance sheet classification as opposed to the original balance sheet classification assigned based on management’s intent upon purchase of the loan, as prescribed by accounting guidance related to the statement of cash flows. As a result of these incorrect classifications, Farmer Mac restated its previously issued interim condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the six and nine month periods ended June 30 and September 30, 2009 and 2010, respectively, and its consolidated statements of cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2010 by amending its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010, which included the interim periods, by filing Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-K/A on June 1, 2011. The restatements impacted only the classification of items in operating activities and investing activities and had no impact on the net increase or decrease in cash and cash equivalents as previously reported and had no effect on Farmer Mac’s previously issued condensed consolidated interim or annual consolidated balance sheets, statements of operations or statements of changes in equity.
(b) Allowance for Losses
Farmer Mac maintains an allowance for losses to cover estimated probable losses on loans held (“allowance for loan losses”) and loans underlying Long Term Standby Purchase Commitments (“LTSPCs”) and Farmer Mac Guaranteed Securities (“reserve for losses”) based on available information. Farmer Mac’s methodology for determining the allowance for losses separately considers its portfolio segments – Farmer Mac I, Farmer Mac II, and Rural Utilities, and disaggregates its analysis, where relevant, into classes of financing receivables, which currently include loans and AgVantage securities. Further disaggregation by commodity type is performed, where appropriate, in analyzing the need for an allowance for losses.
The allowance for losses is increased through periodic provisions for loan losses that are charged against net interest income and provisions for losses that are charged to non-interest expense and is reduced by charge-offs for actual losses, net of recoveries. Negative provisions, or releases of allowance for losses, are generally recorded in the event that the estimate of probable losses as of the end of a period is lower than the estimate at the beginning of the period.
The total allowance for losses consists of a general allowance for losses and a specific allowance for impaired loans.
-9-
General Allowance for Losses
Farmer Mac I
Farmer Mac’s methodology for determining its allowance for losses incorporates the Corporation’s automated loan classification system. That system scores loans based on criteria such as historical repayment performance, indicators of current financial condition, loan seasoning, loan size and loan-to-value ratio. For the purposes of the loss allowance methodology, the loans in the Farmer Mac I portfolio and loans underlying Farmer Mac I Guaranteed Securities and LTSPCs have been scored and classified for each calendar quarter since first quarter 2000. The allowance methodology captures the migration of loan scores across concurrent and overlapping three-year time horizons and calculates loss rates separately within each loan classification for (1) loans underlying LTSPCs and (2) loans held and loans underlying Farmer Mac I Guaranteed Securities. The calculated loss rates are applied to the current classification distribution of unimpaired loans in Farmer Mac’s portfolio to estimate inherent losses, on the assumption that the historical credit losses and trends used to calculate loss rates will continue in the future. Management evaluates this assumption by taking into consideration factors, including:
|
|
·
|
economic conditions;
|
|
|
·
|
geographic and agricultural commodity/product concentrations in the portfolio;
|
|
|
·
|
the credit profile of the portfolio;
|
|
|
·
|
delinquency trends of the portfolio;
|
|
|
·
|
historical charge-off and recovery activities of the portfolio; and
|
|
|
·
|
other factors to capture current portfolio trends and characteristics that differ from historical experience.
|
Management believes that its use of this methodology produces a reasonable estimate of probable losses, as of the balance sheet date, for all loans held in the Farmer Mac I portfolio and loans underlying Farmer Mac I Guaranteed Securities and LTSPCs. There were no purchases or sales during the first nine months of 2011 that materially affected the credit profile of the Farmer Mac I portfolio.
Farmer Mac has not provided an allowance for losses for loans underlying Farmer Mac I AgVantage securities. Each AgVantage security is a general obligation of an issuing institution approved by Farmer Mac and is collateralized by eligible loans in an amount at least equal to the outstanding principal amount of the security, with some level of overcollateralization also required for Farmer Mac I AgVantage securities. Farmer Mac excludes the loans that secure AgVantage securities from the credit risk metrics it discloses because of the credit quality of the issuing institutions, the collateralization level for the securities, and because delinquent loans are required to be removed from the pool of pledged loans and replaced with current eligible loans.
Farmer Mac II
No allowance for losses has been provided for USDA Guaranteed Securities or Farmer Mac II Guaranteed Securities. The USDA-guaranteed portions presented as “USDA Guaranteed Securities” on the condensed consolidated balance sheets, as well as those that collateralize Farmer Mac II Guaranteed Securities, are guaranteed by the USDA. Each USDA guarantee is an obligation backed by the full faith and credit of the United States. Farmer Mac excludes these guaranteed portions from the credit risk metrics it discloses because of the USDA guarantee.
-10-
Rural Utilities
Farmer Mac separately evaluates the rural utilities loans it owns, as well as the lender obligations and loans underlying or securing its Farmer Mac Guaranteed Securities – Rural Utilities, including AgVantage securities, to determine if there are probable losses inherent in those assets. Each AgVantage security is a general obligation of an issuing institution approved by Farmer Mac and is collateralized by eligible loans in an amount at least equal to the outstanding principal amount of the security. No allowance for losses has been provided for this portfolio segment based on the credit quality of the collateral supporting rural utilities assets and Farmer Mac’s counterparty risk analysis. As of September 30, 2011, there were no delinquencies and no probable losses inherent in Farmer Mac’s rural utilities loans held or in any Farmer Mac Guaranteed Securities – Rural Utilities.
Specific Allowance for Impaired Loans
Farmer Mac also analyzes assets in its portfolio for impairment in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) standard on measuring individual impairment of a loan. Farmer Mac’s impaired assets generally include:
|
|
·
|
non-performing assets (loans 90 days or more past due, in foreclosure, restructured, in bankruptcy – including loans performing under either their original loan terms or a court-approved bankruptcy plan);
|
|
|
·
|
loans for which Farmer Mac has adjusted the timing of borrowers’ payment schedules, but still expects to collect all amounts due and has not made economic concessions; and
|
|
|
·
|
additional performing loans that have previously been delinquent or are secured by real estate that produces agricultural commodities or products currently under stress.
|
For loans with an updated appraised value, other updated collateral valuation or management’s estimate of discounted collateral value, this analysis includes the measurement of the fair value of the underlying collateral for individual loans relative to the total recorded investment, including principal, interest and advances and net of any charge-offs. In the event that the collateral value does not support the total recorded investment, Farmer Mac provides an allowance for the loan for the difference between the recorded investment and its fair value, less estimated costs to liquidate the collateral. For the remaining impaired assets without updated valuations, this analysis is performed in the aggregate in consideration of the similar risk characteristics of the assets and historical statistics.
-11-
A modification to the contractual terms of a loan that results in granting a concession to a borrower experiencing financial difficulties is considered a troubled debt restructuring (“TDR”). Farmer Mac has granted a concession when, as a result of the restructuring, it does not expect to collect all amounts due, including interest accrued at the original contract rate. Because the payment of principal at original maturity is primarily dependent on the value of the collateral, Farmer Mac considers the current value of the collateral in determining whether the principal will be paid. In making its determination of whether a borrower is experiencing financial difficulties, Farmer Mac considers several factors, including (1) whether the borrower has declared or is in the process of declaring bankruptcy, (2) there is substantial doubt as to whether the borrower will continue to be a going concern, and (3) whether the borrower can obtain funds from other sources at an effective interest rate at or near a current market interest rate for debt with similar risk characteristics. Farmer Mac evaluates TDRs similarly to other impaired loans for purposes of the allowance for losses. For both the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2011, the recorded investment of loans determined to be TDRs was $0.4 million, both before and after restructuring. The provision for loan losses related to TDRs was zero and $0.1 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, respectively.
As of September 30, 2011 and 2010, Farmer Mac’s specific allowances for losses were $7.5 million and $2.9 million, respectively.

During third quarter 2011, Farmer Mac recorded releases from its allowance for loan losses and its reserve for losses of $0.3 million and $0.5 million, respectively. The releases from the allowance for losses in third quarter 2011 were primarily due to a decline in estimated probable losses related to Farmer Mac’s exposure to the dairy industry. For the nine months ended September 30, 2011, Farmer Mac recorded provisions to its allowance for loan losses of $1.1 million and releases from its reserve for losses of $3.3 million, respectively. In first quarter 2011, Farmer Mac purchased two defaulted loans pursuant to the terms of an LTSPC agreement. This resulted in the reclassification of $1.8 million of specific allowance, which had been recorded in fourth quarter 2010, from the reserve for losses to the allowance for loan losses. The provision for/(release of) losses for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 reflects this reclassification as well as the decline in estimated probable losses related to Farmer Mac’s exposure to the ethanol and dairy industries.
-12-
During third quarter 2010, Farmer Mac recorded provisions to its allowance for loan losses and its reserve for losses of $0.4 million and $0.1 million, respectively. Farmer Mac also recorded charge-offs of $0.5 million to its allowance for loan losses during third quarter 2010. For the nine months ended September 30, 2010, Farmer Mac recorded provisions to its allowance for loan losses and its reserve for losses of $1.4 million and $1.7 million, respectively. These amounts include the reclassification of $2.0 million from the reserve for losses to the allowance for loan losses upon adoption of new consolidation guidance in first quarter 2010. Farmer Mac also recorded charge-offs of $0.5 million and recoveries of $2.2 million on a loan secured by an ethanol plant to its allowance for loan losses during the nine months ended September 30, 2010.
Farmer Mac’s reserve for losses for off-balance sheet Farmer Mac I Guaranteed Securities and LTSPCs as of September 30, 2011 was $0.4 million and $6.6 million, respectively, compared to $0.6 million and $9.7 million, respectively, as of December 31, 2010.

Farmer Mac recognized interest income of approximately $0.7 million and $2.1 million on impaired loans during the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2011, respectively, compared to $0.6 million and $1.5 million, respectively, for the same periods in 2010. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, Farmer Mac’s average investment in impaired loans was $94.2 million and $90.9 million, respectively, compared to $125.4 million and $109.0 million, respectively, for the same periods in 2010.
The following tables present by commodity type the unpaid principal balances, recorded investment and specific allowance for losses related to impaired loans, the recorded investment in loans on nonaccrual status as of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 and the average recorded investment and interest income recognized on impaired loans for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011.

In accordance with the terms of all applicable trust agreements, Farmer Mac generally acquires all loans that collateralize Farmer Mac Guaranteed Securities that become and remain either 90 or 120 days or more past due (depending on the provisions of the applicable agreement) on the next subsequent loan payment date. In accordance with the terms of all LTSPCs, Farmer Mac acquires loans that are either 90 days or 120 days delinquent (depending on the provisions of the applicable agreement) upon the request of the counterparty.
Farmer Mac records all such defaulted loans at their unpaid principal balance during the period in which Farmer Mac becomes entitled to purchase the loans and therefore regains effective control over the transferred loans.
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, Farmer Mac purchased 5 defaulted loans having a cumulative unpaid principal balance of $2.9 million and 18 defaulted loans having a cumulative unpaid principal balance of $21.3 million, respectively, from pools underlying Farmer Mac I Guaranteed Securities and LTSPCs. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010, Farmer Mac purchased 9 defaulted loans having a cumulative unpaid principal balance of $1.9 million and 22 defaulted loans having a cumulative unpaid principal balance of $5.3 million, respectively, from pools underlying Farmer Mac I Guaranteed Securities and LTSPCs. The following table presents Farmer Mac’s purchases of defaulted loans underlying Farmer Mac I Guaranteed Securities and LTSPCs.

Credit Quality Indicators
The following tables present credit quality indicators related to Farmer Mac I loans held and loans underlying LTSPCs and Farmer Mac I Guaranteed Securities (excluding AgVantage securities) as of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010. Farmer Mac uses 90-day delinquency information to evaluate its credit risk exposure on these assets because historically it has been the best measure of borrower credit quality deterioration. Most of the Farmer Mac I loans held and underlying LTSPCs and Farmer Mac I Guaranteed Securities have annual (January 1) or semi-annual (January 1 and July 1) payment dates and are supported by less frequent and less predictable revenue sources, such as the cash flows generated from the maturation of crops, sales of livestock and government farm support programs. Taking into account the reduced frequency of payment due dates and revenue sources, Farmer Mac considers the 90-day delinquency point to be the most significant observation point when evaluating its credit risk exposure.
