off loan balance. Charge-offs include charge-offs against the receivable for partially charged-off loans which represents the difference
between what was expected to be collected and any shortfalls in what was actually collected in the period. See “Receivable for Partially
Charged-Off Private Education Loans” for further discussion.
(3) Represents the additional allowance related to the amount of uncollectible interest reserved within interest income that is transferred in the
period to the allowance for loan losses when interest is capitalized to a loan’s principal balance.
(4) Ending total loans represents gross Private Education Loans, plus the receivable for partially charged-off loans.
