Loans

Farmer Mac classifies loans as either held for investment or held for sale. Loans held for investment are recorded at the unpaid principal balance, net of unamortized premium or discount and other cost adjustments. Loans held for sale are reported at the lower of cost or fair value determined on a pooled basis. The following table displays the composition of the loan balances as of December 31, 2012 and 2011:

During 2012, Farmer Mac recorded provisions to its allowance for loan losses of $3.7 million and releases from its reserve for losses of $1.8 million. In fourth quarter 2012, Farmer Mac purchased one defaulted ethanol loan pursuant to the terms of an LTSPC agreement. This resulted in the reclassification of a specific allowance of $3.2 million from the reserve for losses to the allowance for loan losses. The provision for/(release of) losses for 2012 reflects this reclassification as well as an increase in the specific allowance for this loan during 2012 prior to purchase. Farmer Mac also recorded charge-offs of $2.5 million to its allowance for loan losses during 2012.

During 2011, Farmer Mac recorded provisions to its allowance for loan losses of $0.6 million and releases from its reserve for losses of $3.0 million. In 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 2010, from the reserve for losses to allowance for loan losses. The provision for/(release of) losses for 2011 reflects this reclassification as well as the decline in the estimated probable losses related to Farmer Mac's exposure to the ethanol and dairy industries. Farmer Mac also recorded charge-offs of $0.3 million to its allowance for loan losses during 2011.

During 2010, Farmer Mac recorded provisions to its allowance for loan losses and its reserve for losses of $1.9 million and $2.4 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 $0.6 million and recoveries of $2.2 million to its allowance for loan losses during 2010.

Schedule of Certain Loans Acquired in Transfer Acquired During Period, Delinquencies and Credit Losses [Table Text Block]
Net credit losses and 90 days delinquencies as of and for the periods indicated for loans held and loans underlying Farmer Mac I Guaranteed Securities and LTSPCs are presented in the table below. Information is not presented for loans underlying AgVantage securities, USDA Guaranteed Securities, Farmer Mac II Guaranteed Securities, or rural utilities loans or underlying Farmer Mac Guaranteed Securities – Rural Utilities.  Each AgVantage security is a general obligation of an issuing institution approved by Farmer Mac and is secured by eligible loans in an amount at least equal to the outstanding principal amount of the security.  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.  As of December 31, 2012, there were no probable losses inherent in Farmer Mac's AgVantage securities due to the credit quality of the obligors, as well as the underlying collateral.  To date, Farmer Mac has not experienced any credit losses on any Farmer Mac I AgVantage securities. The USDA-guaranteed portions presented as USDA Guaranteed Securities, 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. As of December 31, 2012, neither Farmer Mac nor Farmer Mac II LLC had experienced any credit losses on any USDA Guaranteed Securities or Farmer Mac II Guaranteed Securities. As of December 31, 2012, there were no delinquencies and no probable losses inherent in the Farmer Mac's rural utilities loans held or in any Farmer Mac Guaranteed Securities – Rural Utilities.  As of December 31, 2012, Farmer Mac has not experienced any credit losses on any of those loans or securities.
