(1) Delinquency information is for conventional and subprime loans only,
excluding bankruptcies.
(2) Percentages are based on the number of mortgage loans.
(3) A weighted average of the MBS method for conventional loans and the ABS
method for subprime loans is used in calculation of delinquency
percentage. Under the MBS methodology, a loan is considered delinquent if
any payment is past due one or more days. In contrast, under the ABS
methodology, a loan is considered delinquent if any payment is past due
30 days or more. The period of delinquency is based upon the number of
days that payments are contractually past due (assuming 30-day months).
Consequently, under the ABS methodology, a loan due on the first day of a
month is not 30 days delinquent until the first day of the next month.
