Investor Verification Checklist
- Verify the specific values for charge-offs and delinquency rates by reviewing Exhibit 99.1 (Monthly Charge-Off and Delinquency Metrics), as these numbers are referenced but not listed in the main text.
- Confirm the trend of these metrics against the prior month (September 2019) and the same period in the prior year (October 2018) to assess credit quality changes.
- Review the company's most recent quarterly (10-Q) or annual (10-K) report for broader context on revenue, profit, and liquidity, as this 8-K does not provide those figures.
