    If we fail to design, implement and maintain effective internal control over financial reporting or fail to remediate any future material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting, we may be unable to report our financial results accurately.

    Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of consolidated financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP. As disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, management previously identified certain material weaknesses in our internal control over the risk assessment process for identifying whether third-party loan origination and servicing contracts present unique accounting considerations that should be further evaluated and the financial reporting related to our accounting and financial reporting of third-party lending and servicing arrangements. As a result of these material weaknesses, our independent registered public accounting firm concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023. In addition, we restated our consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2023, and for the year ended December 31, 2022, as well as the interim quarterly periods in 2024 and 2023. In response to the identified material weaknesses, we, under the oversight of the Audit Committee, implemented a remediation plan that included a more formal risk assessment process, enhanced internal control training, the evaluation and enhancement of control implementation policies and procedures and other remediation efforts. As a result, we have concluded the material weaknesses previously identified have been resolved at December 31, 2025. However, we cannot provide assurance that we will not identify additional material weaknesses in the future. Any failure to implement and maintain adequate internal control over financial reporting could adversely impact our ability to report our financial position and results from operations on a timely and accurate basis, and could result in further restatements of financial results.

    We could recognize losses on securities held in our securities portfolio, particularly if interest rates continue to increase or economic and market conditions deteriorate.

    Factors beyond our control can significantly influence the fair value of securities in our portfolio and can cause potential adverse changes to the fair value of these securities. For example, fixed-rate securities acquired by us are generally subject to decreases in market value when interest rates rise. Additional factors include, but are not limited to, rating agency downgrades of the securities or our own analysis of the value of the security, defaults by the issuer or individual mortgagors with respect to the underlying securities, and continued instability in the credit markets. Any of the foregoing factors could cause an impairment in future periods and result in realized losses. The process for determining potential impairment requires difficult, subjective judgments about the future financial performance of the issuer and any collateral underlying the security in order to assess the probability of receiving all contractual principal and interest payments on the security. Because of changing economic and market conditions affecting interest rates, the financial condition of issuers of the securities and the performance of the underlying collateral, we may recognize realized and/or unrealized losses in future periods, which could have an adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

FAQ

What are “Risk Factors”?
Risk factors are any situations or occurrences that could make investing in a company risky. The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) requires that publicly traded companies disclose their most significant risk factors. This is so that potential investors can consider any risks before they make an investment. They also offer companies protection, as a company can use risk factors as liability protection. This could happen if a company underperforms and investors take legal action as a result. It is worth noting that smaller companies, that is those with a public float of under $75 million on the last business day, do not have to include risk factors in their 10-K and 10-Q forms, although some may choose to do so.
How do companies disclose their risk factors?
Publicly traded companies initially disclose their risk factors to the SEC through their S-1 filings as part of the IPO process. Additionally, companies must provide a complete list of risk factors in their Annual Reports (Form 10-K) or (Form 20-F) for “foreign private issuers”. Quarterly Reports also include a section on risk factors (Form 10-Q) where companies are only required to update any changes since the previous report. According to the SEC, risk factors should be reported concisely, logically and in “plain English” so investors can understand them.
How can I use TipRanks risk factors in my stock research?
Use the Risk Factors tab to get data about the risk factors of any company in which you are considering investing. You can easily see the most significant risks a company is facing. Additionally, you can find out which risk factors a company has added, removed or adjusted since its previous disclosure. You can also see how a company’s risk factors compare to others in its sector. Without reading company reports or participating in conference calls, you would most likely not have access to this sort of information, which is usually not included in press releases or other public announcements. A simplified analysis of risk factors is unique to TipRanks.
