Summary of Key Unobservable Inputs Used in Valuation of Firm Commitment to Purchase CRT Securities

The Company categorizes its firm commitment to purchase CRT securities as a “Level 3” fair value asset. The fair value of the firm commitment is estimated using a discounted cash flow approach to estimate the fair value of the CRT securities to be purchased less the contractual purchase price. Key inputs used in the estimation of fair value of the firm commitment are the discount rate and the voluntary and involuntary prepayment speeds of the reference loans. The firm commitment to purchase CRT securities is recognized initially as a component of Net gain on loans acquired for sale. Subsequent changes in fair value are recorded in Net gain (loss) on investments.

Following is a quantitative summary of key unobservable inputs in the valuation of firm commitment to purchase CRT securities:
