A significant part of managing HDFS’ finance receivable portfolios includes the assessment of credit risk associated with
each borrower. As the credit risk varies between the retail and wholesale portfolios, HDFS utilizes different credit risk
indicators for each portfolio.
HDFS manages retail credit risk through its credit approval policy and ongoing collection efforts. HDFS uses FICO
scores, a standard credit rating measurement, to differentiate the expected default rates of retail credit applicants enabling the
Company to better evaluate credit applicants for approval and to tailor pricing according to this assessment. Retail loans with a
FICO score of 640 or above at origination are considered prime, and loans with a FICO score below 640 are considered sub-
prime. These credit quality indicators are determined at the time of loan origination and are not updated subsequent to the loan
origination date.
The recorded investment of retail finance receivables, by credit quality indicator, at December 31 was as follows (in
thousands):
2013 2012
Prime $ 4,141,559 $ 4,035,584
Sub-prime 1,123,485 1,037,531
Total $ 5,265,044 $ 5,073,115
HDFS’ credit risk on the wholesale portfolio is different from that of the retail portfolio. Whereas the retail portfolio
represents a relatively homogeneous pool of retail finance receivables that exhibit more consistent loss patterns, the wholesale
portfolio exposures are less consistent. HDFS utilizes an internal credit risk rating system to manage credit risk exposure
consistently across wholesale borrowers and individually evaluates credit risk factors for each borrower. HDFS uses the
following internal credit quality indicators, based on the Company’s internal risk rating system, listed from highest level of risk
to lowest level of risk, for the wholesale portfolio: Doubtful, Substandard, Special Mention, Medium Risk and Low Risk.
Based upon management’s review, the dealers classified in the Doubtful category are the dealers with the greatest likelihood of
being charged-off, while the dealers classified as Low Risk are least likely to be charged-off. The internal rating system
considers factors such as the specific borrower's ability to repay and the estimated value of any collateral. Dealer risk rating
classifications are reviewed and updated on a quarterly basis.
The recorded investment of wholesale finance receivables, by internal credit quality indicator, at December 31 was as
follows (in thousands):
2013 2012
Doubtful $ — $ 8,107
Substandard 8,383 2,593
Special Mention 2,076 3,504
Medium Risk 5,205 8,451
Low Risk 829,548 793,749
