FINANCIAL SERVICES SECTOR FINANCE RECEIVABLES

Our Financial Services sector, primarily Ford Credit, manages finance receivables as “consumer” and “non-consumer” portfolios. The receivables are generally secured by the vehicles, inventory, or other property being financed.

(a)	On the consolidated balance sheet at March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, $5.1 billion and $5.4 billion, respectively, are reclassified to Other receivables, net, resulting in Finance receivables, net of $94.3 billion and $90.7 billion, respectively.


(b)	At March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, excludes $2 billion and $1.8 billion, respectively, of certain receivables (primarily direct financing leases) that are not subject to fair value disclosure requirements. The fair value of finance receivables is categorized within Level 3 of the hierarchy.

Excluded from finance receivables at March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, was $219 million and $209 million, respectively, of accrued uncollected interest, which we report in Other assets on the balance sheet.

Included in the recorded investment in finance receivables at March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015 were consumer receivables of $30.7 billion and $27.6 billion, respectively, and non-consumer receivables of $26.8 billion and $26.1 billion, respectively, that have been sold for legal purposes in securitization transactions but continue to be reported in our consolidated financial statements. The receivables are available only for payment of the debt issued by, and other obligations of, the securitization entities that are parties to those securitization transactions; they are not available to pay the other obligations or the claims of Ford Credit’s other creditors. Ford Credit holds the right to receive the excess cash flows not needed to pay the debt issued by, and other obligations of, the securitization entities that are parties to those securitization transactions.

Aging

For all finance receivables, we define “past due” as any payment, including principal and interest, that is at least 31 days past the contractual due date. The recorded investment of consumer receivables greater than 90 days past due and still accruing interest was $16 million at March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015. The recorded investment of non-consumer receivables greater than 90 days past due and still accruing interest was $1 million at March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015.

The aging analysis of our finance receivables balances were as follows (in millions):



	March 31, 2016		December 31, 2015

31-60 days past due	$	611	$	708
61-90 days past due	81		108
91-120 days past due	27		27

Credit Quality

Consumer Portfolio. Credit quality ratings for consumer receivables are based on aging. Refer to the aging table above.

Consumer receivables credit quality ratings are as follows:


•	Pass – current to 60 days past due


•	Special Mention – 61 to 120 days past due and in intensified collection status


•	Substandard – greater than 120 days past due and for which the uncollectible portion of the receivables has already been charged off, as measured using the fair value of collateral less costs to sell

Non-Consumer Portfolio. Dealers are assigned to one of four groups according to risk ratings as follows:


•	Group I – strong to superior financial metrics


•	Group II – fair to favorable financial metrics


•	Group III – marginal to weak financial metrics


•	Group IV – poor financial metrics, including dealers classified as uncollectible

Impaired Receivables

Impaired consumer receivables include accounts that have been rewritten or modified in reorganization proceedings pursuant to the U.S. Bankruptcy Code that are considered to be troubled debt restructurings (“TDRs”), as well as all accounts greater than 120 days past due. Impaired non-consumer receivables represent accounts with dealers that have weak or poor financial metrics or dealer financing that has been modified in TDRs. The recorded investment of consumer receivables that were impaired at March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015 was $373 million, or 0.6% of consumer receivables, and $375 million, or 0.6% of consumer receivables, respectively. The recorded investment of non-consumer receivables that were impaired at March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015 was $149 million, or 0.4% of non-consumer receivables, and $134 million, or 0.4% of non-consumer receivables, respectively. Impaired finance receivables are evaluated both collectively and specifically.
