See accompanying notes to consolidated financial statements. 5 CONSUMER PORTFOLIO SERVICES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Note 1: Basis of Presentation The Company is engaged in the business of purchasing, selling and servicing retail installment sales contracts ("Contracts") originated by automobile dealers ("Dealers") that sell both new and used automobiles, light trucks and passenger vans. The consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 1996, the consolidated statements of operations for the three month period ended March 31, 1996 and 1995, and the consolidated statements of cash flows for the three month periods ended March 31, 1996 and 1995, have been prepared by the Company without an audit. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position at March 31, 1996 and the results of operations and cash flows for the three month period ended March 31, 1996 and 1995, have been made. The results of operations for the three month period ended March 31, 1996, are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted. It is suggested that these consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's 10-KSB filing for the nine month period ended December 31, 1995. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Alton Receivables Corp. ("Alton"), CPS Receivables Corp. ("CPSRC") and CPS Funding Corp. ("CPSFC"). The consolidated financial statements also include the accounts of SAMCO acceptance Corp. ("SAMCO"), an 80% owned subsidiary of the Company. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. Note 2: Investments in Credit Enhancements The Company is a party to various agreements with institutional investors and investment banks for the sale of the Company's Contracts. The agreements call for the Company to sell Contracts to one of its special purpose corporation subsidiaries, either Alton or CPSRC (the "SPCs"), which subsequently transfer the Contracts to various grantor trusts (the "Trusts") which then issue interest bearing certificates which are purchased by institutional investors. The terms of the agreements provide that simultaneous with each purchase of certificates by the investor, the Company is required to provide a credit enhancement in the form of a cash capital contribution to the SPC equal to a specified percentage of the amount of the certificates purchased by the investor. The SPC then deposits the initial cash deposit, and subsequent excess servicing cash flows as required by the terms of the various agreements, to an account held by a trustee (the "Spread Account") and pledges the cash to the Trust, which in turn invests the cash in high quality liquid investment securities as defined by the various agreements. In the securitizations since June 1995, the Company altered the credit enhancement mechanism to create a subordinated class of asset-backed securities ("B Piece") in order to reduce the size of the required initial deposit to the Spread Account. The Company expects to sell its B Pieces in conjunction with the sale of the related senior certificates, but may sell them later. Unsold B Pieces are accounted for as available for sale and, when originated, are treated as non-cash investing activities in the Company's consolidated statement of cash flows. In the event that the cash flows generated by the Contracts transferred to the Trust are insufficient to pay obligations of the Trust, including principal or interest due to certificateholders or expenses of the Trust, the trustee will draw an amount necessary from the Spread Accounts to pay the obligations of the Trust. The agreements provide that the Spread Accounts shall be maintained at a specified percent of the principal balance of the certificates, which can be increased in the event delinquencies and/or losses exceed certain specified levels. In the event delinquencies and/or losses on the Contracts serviced exceed specified levels defined in certain of the Company's securitization agreements, the terms of those securitizations may require the transfer of servicing to another servicer. As principal payments are made to the certificateholders, and if the Spread Accounts are in excess of the specified percent of the principal balance of the certificates, the trustee shall release to the SPC the portion of the pledged cash that is in excess of the specified percent of the principal balance of the certificates. Except for releases in this manner, the cash in the Spread Accounts is restricted from use by the SPC or the Company. 6 CONSUMER PORTFOLIO SERVICES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Note 3: Contracts Held for Sale The Contracts which the Company purchases from dealers provide for finance charges of approximately 20%, in most cases. Each Contract provides for full amortization, equal monthly payments and can be fully prepaid by the borrower at any time without penalty. The Company generally purchases the Contracts from dealers at a discount from the amount financed under the Contract. Contracts are generally sold by the Company within three months of their purchase, although they may be held longer. Contracts held for sale are stated at the lower of aggregate cost or market value, net of related reserves. At March 31, 1996 and 1995, the balance of Contracts held for sale was made up of the following components:
March 31, ------------------------------- 1996 1995 ------------- ------------- Gross receivable balance $ 27,714,809 $ 30,358,454 Unearned finance charges (4,563,290) (6,889,231) Dealer discounts (1,164,959) (1,123,726) Deferred loan origination costs (net of 104,405 137,096 related fees) Reserves for losses (301,828) (323,631) ------------- ------------- Net contracts held for sale $ 21,789,137 $ 22,158,962 ============= =============
Note 4: Servicing Fees Servicing fees are reported as income when earned, net of related amortization of excess servicing. Servicing costs are charged to expense as incurred. Servicing fees for the three month period ended March 31, 1996 and 1995 included the following components:

7 CONSUMER PORTFOLIO SERVICES, INC. ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Overview Consumer Portfolio Services, Inc. (the "Company") and its subsidiaries engage primarily in the business of purchasing, selling and servicing retail automobile installment sale contracts ("Contracts") originated by Dealers located throughout the U.S. and predominantly in California. The Company specializes in Contracts with borrowers who generally would not be expected to qualify for traditional financing such as that provided by commercial banks or automobile manufacturers' captive finance companies. The Company generates revenue, earnings and cash flow primarily through the purchase and subsequent securitization of Contracts. In each securitization, the Company sells a distinct portfolio of Contracts to a trust, which, in turn, sells interest bearing certificates backed by the Contracts to institutional investors. The terms of the securitization transactions generally provide for the Company to earn a base servicing fee computed as a percentage of the outstanding balance of the Contracts as compensation for its duties as servicer. In addition, the Company is entitled to certain excess servicing fees which represent collections on the Contracts in excess of the amounts necessary to pay certificate purchasers' principal and interest and the expenses of the trust, including, primarily, base servicing fees. The Company also recognizes gains on its sales of Contracts. Gains are determined based upon the difference between the sale proceeds for the portion of Contracts sold and the Company's recorded investment in Contracts sold. The Company allocates the recorded investment in the Contracts between the portion of the Contracts sold and the portion retained based on the relative fair value of those portions on the date of sale. In addition, the Company recognizes gains attributable to its estimates of excess servicing receivables ("ESR") for each pool of Contracts it securitizes. ESRs are determined by computing the difference between the weighted average yield of the Contracts sold and the yield to the purchaser, adjusted for the base servicing fee based on the agreements between the Company and the purchaser. The resulting differential is recorded as a gain in the period of the sale equal to the present value of the estimated cash flows, net of any portion of the excess that may be due to the purchaser and adjusted for anticipated prepayments, repossessions, liquidations and other losses. To the extent that the actual future performance of the Contracts results in less excess cash flows than the Company estimated, the Company's ESRs will be adjusted at least quarterly, with corresponding charges recorded against income in the period in which the adjustment is made. To the extent that the actual cash flows exceed the Company's estimates the Company will record additional servicing fees in the periods in which the excess cash was collected. Results of Operations The three month period ended March 31, 1996, compared to the three month period - - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ended March 31, 1995 - - -------------------- Revenues. During the three months ended March 31, 1996, revenues increased $3.4 million, or 52.0%, compared to the three month period ended March 31, 1995. Servicing fees increased by $1.4 million, or 67.6%, and represented 34.4% of total revenues. Servicing fees consist primarily of base and excess monthly servicing fees earned on Contracts sold and serviced by the Company. The increase in servicing fees is due to the Company's continued expansion of its Contract purchase, sale and servicing activities. As of March 31, 1996, the Company was earning servicing fees on 29,228 Contracts and loans approximating $308.6 million compared to 16,077 Contracts and loans approximating $169.3 million as of March 31, 1995. In addition to the $308.6 million in sold Contracts and loans on which servicing fees were earned, the Company was holding for sale and servicing an additional $23.0 million in Contracts for an aggregate total servicing portfolio of $331.6 million. Net gain on sale of Contracts, which includes (i) the excess of the amount realized on the sale of Contracts over the Company's net cost, (ii) the net present value of estimated excess servicing fees on sold Contracts, and (iii) the recognition of acquisition fees paid by Dealers and deferred by the Company, increased by $2.2 million, or 92.5%, and represented 45.4% of total revenues for the three month period ended March 31, 1996. The increase in gain on sale is largely due to the volume of Contracts which were sold in the 8 CONSUMER PORTFOLIO SERVICES, INC. ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS period. During the three month period ended March 31, 1996, the Company sold $67.1 million in Contracts, compared to $45.1 million in the three month period ended March 31, 1995. Interest income on Contracts warehoused for sale decreased by $149,714, or 7.0%, representing 20.2% of total revenues for the three month period ended March 31, 1996. In the prior period, the Company was carrying a greater balance of Contracts held for sale due to the timing of the sales of its Contracts and its purchase of certain bulk portfolios. During the three month period ended March 31, 1996, the Company purchased $72.3 million in Contracts from Dealers, compared to $41.6 million in the three month period ended March 31, 1995. Expenses. During the three month period ended March 31, 1996, operating expenses increased $1.7 million, or 53.0%, compared to the three month period ended March 31, 1995. Employee costs increased by $689,984, or 88.6%, and represented 30.6% of total operating expenses. The increase is due to the addition of staff necessary to accommodate the Company's growth and certain increases in salaries of existing staff. General and administrative expenses increased by $477,597, or 57.9% and represented 27.1% of total operating expenses. Increases in general and administrative expenses included increases in telecommunications, stationery, credit reports and other related items as a result of increases in the volume of purchasing and servicing of Contracts. Marketing expenses increased by $266,854, or 478.0%, and represented 6.7% of total expenses. The Company uses a combination of independent contractor and employee marketing representatives all of whom are compensated directly in proportion to the number of Contracts the Company purchases from Dealers serviced by the marketing representative. The fees paid to the marketing representatives for Contracts purchased are combined with other direct costs related to loan originations and are offset against acquisition fees paid by Dealers. Any direct costs in excess of the acquisition fees paid by Dealers are deferred and amortized, in the case of Contracts held for sale, or are offset to any gain on sale in the case of Contracts sold. Additional increases in marketing expense relate to other marketing expenses such as travel, promotion and convention expenses. Interest expense increased $71,994, or 6.4%, and represented 24.7% of total operating expenses. During the three month period ended March 31, 1996, interest expense consisted of interest accrued and/or paid to Sun Life on a $3.0 million convertible note issued November 16, 1993, $20.0 million in subordinated debt securities issued December 20, 1995, and a warehouse line of credit. Interest expense is also impacted by the volume of Contracts held for sale as well as the Company's cost of borrowed funds. Liquidity and Capital Resources The Company's primary sources of cash include base and excess servicing fees it earns on portfolios of Contracts is has previously sold, proceeds from sales of Contracts in excess of its recorded investment in the Contracts, amortization and release of investments in credit enhancement balances pledged in conjunction with the securitization of its Contracts and borrower payments on Contracts held for sale. The Company's primary uses of cash include its normal operating expenses and the establishment and build up of Spread Accounts, used for credit enhancements, to their maintenance levels. Net cash used in operating activities was $9.9 million during the three month period ended March 31, 1996, compared to net cash used of $9.1 during the three month period ended March 31, 1995. Cash used for purchasing Contracts was $72.3 million, an increase of $30.7 million, or 73.7%, over cash used for purchasing Contracts in the prior year's period. Cash provided from the liquidation of Contracts was $69.9 million, an increase of $25.3 million, or 56.8%, over cash provided from the liquidation of Contracts in the prior year's period. The Company's cash requirements have been and will continue to be significant. The agreements under which the Company has securitized and sold its Contracts required the Company to make a significant initial cash deposit, for purposes of credit enhancement, to a Spread Account which is pledged to support the related Asset Backed Securities ("ABS"), and is invested in high quality liquid 9 CONSUMER PORTFOLIO SERVICES, INC. ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS securities. Excess cash flows from the securitized Contracts are deposited into the Spread Accounts until such time as the Spread Account balance reaches a specific percent of the outstanding balance of the related ABS. In its most recent securitizations, the Company established a subordinated B Piece in order to reduce the size of the required initial deposit to the Spread Accounts. The Company expects to sell its B Pieces in conjunction with the sale of the related senior certificates, but may sell them later. During the three month period ended March 31, 1996, cash used for initial deposits to Spread Accounts was $2.7 million a decrease of $1.6 million, or 37.7%, over cash used for initial deposits to Spread Accounts in the prior year's period. The decrease is due to the fact that the structure of the current period Contract sales, including establishment of the B Piece, results in less cash required for initial deposits to Spread Accounts. Cash from excess servicing deposited to Spread Accounts for the three month period ended March 31, 1996, was $3.2 million, an increase of $1.6 million, or 98.2%, over cash from excess servicing deposited to Spread Accounts in the prior year's period. Cash released from Spread Accounts for the three month period ended March 31, 1996, was $736,530, a decrease of $813,664, or 52.5%, over cash released from Spread Accounts in the prior year's period. Changes in deposits to and releases from Spread Accounts are impacted by the relative size and seasoning of the various pools of sold Contracts that make up the Company's servicing portfolio. Cash flows are impacted by the use of the credit line (the "Line") which is in turn is impacted by the amount of Contracts the Company holds for sale. At March 31, 1996, the Line had an outstanding balance of $7.9 million compared to $19.7 million at March 31, 1995. In June 1995, the Company entered into two new agreements which restructured the Line and increased the maximum available amount to $100.0 million. The primary agreement provides for loans by Redwood Receivables Corporation ("Redwood") to the Company, to be funded by commercial paper issued by Redwood and secured by Contracts pledged periodically by the Company. The Redwood facility provides for a maximum of $100.0 million of advances to the Company, with interest at a variable rate tied to prevailing commercial paper rates. When the Company wishes to securitize these Contracts, a substantial part of the proceeds received from investors is paid to Redwood, which simultaneously releases the pledged Contracts for transfer to a pass- through securitization trust. The second agreement is a standby line of credit with GECC, also with a $100.0 million maximum, which the Company may use only if and to the extent that Redwood does not provide funding as described above. The GECC line of credit is secured by Contracts and substantially all other assets of the Company. Both agreements extend through November 30, 1998. The two agreements are viewed as a single short-term warehouse line of credit, with advances varying according to the amount of pledged Contracts. The Company anticipates the funds available under the Line, proceeds from the sale of Contracts and cash from operations will be sufficient to satisfy the Company's estimated cash requirements for the next 12 months, assuming that the Company continues to have a means by which to sell its warehoused Contracts. If for any reason the Company is unable to sell its Contracts, or if the Company's available cash otherwise proves to be insufficient to fund operations (because of future changes in the industry, general economic conditions, unanticipated increases in expenses, or other factors), the Company may be required to seek additional funding. The Company's existing facility and data processing and management information systems currently have excess capacity. Therefore, the company does not anticipate any need for significant capital expenditures in connection with the expansion of its business for at least 12 months. In addition, the terms of the Company's lease agreement allows for the acquisition of an additional 7,000 square feet of contiguous space on November 1, 1996. The Company anticipates modest capital expenditures associated with the acquisition of this new space. 10 CONSUMER PORTFOLIO SERVICES, INC.
