Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]  
FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT
FASB ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” (“ASC 820”), defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value under generally accepted accounting principles, and requires certain disclosures about fair value measurements. In general, fair values of financial instruments are based upon quoted market prices, when available. If such quoted market prices are not available, fair value is based upon discounted cash flow model that use, as inputs, observable market-based parameters to the greatest extent possible.

The Company determines the fair value of its financial instruments and conducts an ongoing assessment of the techniques used to ensure their appropriateness, consistent application and the reasonableness of the assumptions. In determining the fair value of
each investment security, the Company reviews performance characteristics of the underlying loan pool including origination vintage, borrower credit quality, macroeconomic environment, etc. The Company determines the fair value for each investment security by then estimating significant assumptions including discount rate, cumulative net loss rate and prepayment rate which are reviewed and approved by management.

The Company also engages a third-party valuation service provider to estimate a range of fair values for all significant investment securities. The Company reviews and validates that each of its significant assumptions are within the range of the independent third-party service provider, including: discount rate, cumulative net loss rate, prepayment rate, etc. Finally, the Company reviews and validates that the fair value used for financial reporting is within the range of fair value estimates by the third-party service provider for the same significant investment securities.

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis (Level 3)

Investments in Loans and Securities (Level 3)

As of September 30, 2025, the Company held investments in securities classified as available for sale. These assets are measured at fair value using a discounted cash flow model, and presented within investments in loans and securities on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. Changes in the fair value, other than declines in fair value due to credit, are reflected in other comprehensive income (loss) on the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive loss. Declines in fair value due to credit are reflected in gains and (losses) on investments in loans and securities on the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations.

The Company held investments in securities under the fair value option. These assets are measured using a discounted cash flow methodology, while also considering market data as it become available, and presented within investments in loans and securities on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. The initial fair value measurement and subsequent measurement changes in fair value in the period are reflected in gains and (losses) on investments in loans and securities on the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations.

The following tables summarize the activity related to the fair value of the investments in loans and securities available for sale (Level 3 only) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 (in thousands):

Significant unobservable inputs used for our Level 3 fair value measurement of the loans and securities and credit losses are the discount rate, loss rate, and prepayment rate and consideration of any optional redemption features in our investment securities. Significant increases or decreases in any of the inputs in isolation could result in a significantly lower or higher fair value measurement.

The following tables present quantitative information about the significant unobservable inputs used for our Level 3 fair value measurement of the securities as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024:
