Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes forward-looking statements that are based on current expectations and that are subject to significant risks and uncertainties. These forward-looking statements are made as of the date of this Form 10-Q. We undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this Form 10-Q. Actual results might differ significantly from those described in or implied by such statements due to various factors and uncertainties, including those described in the MD&A - Forward-Looking Statements section of this Form 10-Q and the Introduction and Risk Factors sections of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, or 2021 Annual Report.
Throughout this Form 10-Q, we use certain acronyms and terms that are defined in the Glossary of our 2021 Annual Report.
You should read the following MD&A in conjunction with our 2021 Annual Report and our condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes for the three months ended March 31, 2022 included in Financial Statements.
INTRODUCTION
Freddie Mac is a GSE chartered by Congress in 1970, with a mission to provide liquidity, stability, and affordability to the U.S. housing market. We do this primarily by purchasing single-family and multifamily residential mortgage loans originated by lenders. In most instances, we package these loans into guaranteed mortgage-related securities, which are sold in the global capital markets, and transfer interest-rate and liquidity risks to third-party investors. In addition, we transfer mortgage credit risk exposure to third-party investors through our credit risk transfer programs, which include securities- and insurance-based offerings. We also invest in mortgage loans and mortgage-related securities. We do not originate mortgage loans or lend money directly to mortgage borrowers.
We support the U.S. housing market and the overall economy by enabling America's families to access mortgage loan funding with better terms and by providing consistent liquidity to the single-family and multifamily mortgage markets. We have helped many distressed borrowers keep their homes or avoid foreclosure and have helped many distressed renters avoid eviction.
Since September 2008, we have been operating in conservatorship, with FHFA as our Conservator. The conservatorship and related matters significantly affect our management, business activities, financial condition, and results of operations. Our future is uncertain, and the conservatorship has no specified termination date. We do not know what changes may occur to our business model during or following conservatorship, including whether we will continue to exist. In connection with our entry into conservatorship, we entered into the Purchase Agreement with Treasury, under which we issued Treasury both senior preferred stock and a warrant to purchase common stock. Our Purchase Agreement with Treasury is critical to keeping us solvent and avoiding the appointment of a receiver by FHFA under statutory mandatory receivership provisions. We believe the support provided by Treasury pursuant to the Purchase Agreement currently enables us to have adequate liquidity to conduct normal business activities. For additional information on the conservatorship and related matters and the Purchase Agreement, see our 2021 Annual Report.

Consolidated Financial Results
Net Revenues and Net Income
(In billions)
fmcc-20220331_g2.jpg
Net Worth
(In billions)
fmcc-20220331_g3.jpg
n    Net income was $3.8 billion for 1Q 2022, an increase of 37% year-over-year. The increase in net income was driven by higher net revenues and a credit reserve release in Single-Family.
n    Net revenues increased 11% year-over-year to $5.8 billion, primarily driven by higher net interest income and higher net investment gains.
n    Net worth was $31.7 billion as of March 31, 2022, up from $28.0 billion as of December 31, 2021. The quarterly increases in net worth have been, or will be, added to the aggregate liquidation preference of the senior preferred stock. The liquidation preference of the senior preferred stock was $100.7 billion on March 31, 2022, and will increase to $104.4 billion on June 30, 2022 based on the $3.7 billion increase in net worth in 1Q 2022.
Market Liquidity
                          Market Liquidity
(In thousands)
fmcc-20220331_g4.jpg
We support the U.S. housing market by executing our mission to provide liquidity and help maintain credit availability for new and refinanced single-family mortgages as well as for rental housing. We provided $223.1 billion in liquidity to the mortgage market in 1Q 2022, which enabled the financing of over 835,000 home purchases, refinancings, and rental units.

Mortgage Portfolio Balances

Mortgage Portfolio
(UPB in billions)
fmcc-20220331_g5.jpg
n    Our mortgage portfolio increased 16% year-over-year to $3.3 trillion, driven by a 17% increase in our Single-Family mortgage portfolio and a 5% increase in our Multifamily mortgage portfolio.
l    The growth in our Single-Family mortgage portfolio was primarily driven by continued house price appreciation and strong home purchase activity. Continued house price appreciation contributed to new business acquisitions having a higher average loan size compared to older vintages that continued to run off.
l    The growth in our Multifamily mortgage portfolio was primarily driven by ongoing loan purchase and securitization activity attributable to continued high demand for multifamily financing.
Credit Risk Transfer

(UPB in billions)

Multifamily Mortgage Portfolio with Credit Enhancement
(UPB in billions)
fmcc-20220331_g7.jpg
In addition to transferring interest-rate and liquidity risk to third-party investors through our securitization activities, we engage in various credit enhancement arrangements to reduce our credit risk exposure. We transfer a portion of the credit risk, primarily on recently acquired loans, through our CRT programs. We also reduce our credit risk exposure through other credit enhancement arrangements, mainly primary mortgage insurance. See MD&A - Risk Management Credit Risk for additional information on our credit enhancements and CRT programs.

Management's Discussion and AnalysisMarket Conditions and Economic Indicators

MARKET CONDITIONS AND ECONOMIC INDICATORS
The following graphs and related discussions present certain market and macroeconomic indicators that can significantly affect our business and financial results.
Interest Rates(1)
Quarterly Ending Ratesfmcc-20220331_g8.jpg
(1) 30-year PMMS interest rates are as of the last week in each quarter. SOFR interest rates are 30-day average rates.

n    The 30-year Primary Mortgage Market Survey (PMMS) interest rate is indicative of what a consumer could expect to be offered on a first-lien prime conventional conforming home purchase mortgage with an LTV of 80%. Increases (decreases) in the PMMS rate typically result in decreases (increases) in refinancing activity and total originations.
n    Changes in benchmark interest rates can significantly affect our financial position and results of operations, including our net interest income and the fair value of our financial instruments. We have elected hedge accounting for certain assets and liabilities in an effort to reduce GAAP earnings variability attributable to changes in benchmark interest rates.

Unemployment Rate and Monthly Net New Jobs
fmcc-20220331_g9.jpgSource: U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.
n    Changes in the national unemployment rate can affect several market factors, including the demand for single-family and multifamily housing and loan delinquency rates.
n    The unemployment rate fell to 3.6% as of March 2022, down from 6.0% in March 2021. The labor force participation rate is still below its pre-pandemic levels as many workers have yet to re-enter the labor market after their initial exit.

Source: Inside Mortgage Finance. 1Q 2022 U.S. single-family mortgage originations data is not yet available.
n    Home sales decreased in 1Q 2022. We expect home sales in 2022 to decline compared to 2021 as higher mortgage interest rates and house prices offset the strong demand for housing.
n    Single-family house prices increased 5.0% during 1Q 2022, compared to an increase of 4.3% during 1Q 2021. Although supply constraints could continue to exert pressure on house prices, we expect house price growth to moderate during the remainder of 2022.

















n    U.S. single-family loan origination volumes decreased to $1.1 trillion in 4Q 2021 from $1.3 trillion in 4Q 2020 as a result of higher mortgage interest rates and increasing house prices. We expect total originations to decrease in 2022 primarily due to a decrease in refinance originations driven by higher mortgage interest rates.

Source: For 1Q21 - 4Q21, "Reis National Performance Trends Report." For 1Q22,"Reis 1Q 2022 Construction First Glance." 1Q22 net absorption data is not yet available.
n    Vacancy rates continued to decrease during 1Q 2022. The decrease in vacancy rates was driven by higher demand for rental housing as a result of improving economic conditions, changing migration patterns, and rising home prices.
n    Effective rent growth (i.e., the average rent paid by the renter over the term of the lease, adjusted for concessions by the property owner and costs borne by the renter) was positive at the national level and in most major geographic markets in 1Q 2022, increasing 15.6% over the past year.
n    Multifamily property prices grew 4.2% in 1Q 2022 and 22.4% over the past year, as the overall investment environment remained attractive given the multifamily market's strong performance and its lower sensitivity to inflation relative to most other asset classes.










n    Completions decreased in 1Q 2022 due to supply chain delays and labor shortages.
n    While final unit counts are not yet available, we expect net absorptions to have increased during 1Q 2022 driven by improving economic conditions, pent-up demand, increasing house prices, and rising income levels. We further expect net absorptions to exceed completions for 1Q 2022.

(UPB in billions)
fmcc-20220331_g15.jpgSource: Federal Reserve Financial Accounts of the United States of America. 1Q 2022 U.S. multifamily mortgage debt outstanding data is not yet available.
n    U.S. single-family mortgage debt outstanding increased year-over-year, primarily driven by house price appreciation and first-time homebuyers, and is expected to continue to increase during 2022. An increase in U.S. single-family mortgage debt outstanding typically results in the growth of our Single-Family mortgage portfolio.














n    Our share of multifamily mortgage debt outstanding increased slightly in 4Q 2021 as we accounted for a larger share of total multifamily mortgage debt origination volume. This growth in our share of debt origination volume was driven by our significant 4Q 2021 new business activity.

The 1Q 2022 delinquency rates for FDIC insured institutions and ACLI investment bulletin are not yet available.
n    Our Single-Family serious delinquency rate is based on the number of loans in our Single-Family mortgage portfolio that are three monthly payments or more past due or in the process of foreclosure.
n    Our Single-Family serious delinquency rate declined quarter-over-quarter and year-over-year, due primarily to borrowers exiting forbearance and completing loan workout activities that return their mortgages to current status.













n    Our Multifamily delinquency rate is based on the UPB of loans in our Multifamily mortgage portfolio that are two monthly payments or more past due or in the process of foreclosure.
n    Our Multifamily delinquency rate returned to pre-pandemic levels and remains low compared to many other market participants.

Management's Discussion and AnalysisConsolidated Results of Operations

Key Drivers:
n    1Q 2022 vs. 1Q 2021 - Increased primarily driven by gains in Single-Family due to mark-to-market gains on commitments to sell guaranteed mortgage-related securities used to economically hedge the securitization pipeline, as spreads on agency mortgage-related securities widened during the quarter. This was partially offset by lower gains in Multifamily due to spread widening and lower initial pricing margins on new loan purchases.

Benefit (provision) for credit losses$837 $196 $641 327 %
Key Drivers:
n    1Q 2022 vs. 1Q 2021 - Increased primarily due to observed house price appreciation and higher forecasted house prices.
Non-Interest Expense
Credit Enhancement Expense
Key Drivers:
n    1Q 2022 vs. 1Q 2021 - Increased $124 million primarily due to higher outstanding cumulative volumes of CRT transactions.
Legislative Assessments Expense
Legislative assessments expense relates to the legislated guarantee fees on single-family loans that we are required to remit to Treasury and the affordable housing funds assessment. The legislated guarantee fees relate to the 10 basis point increase in guarantee fees implemented at the direction of FHFA pursuant to the Temporary Payroll Tax Cut Continuation Act of 2011 as extended by the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act. The affordable housing funds assessment relates to the GSE Act requirement to set aside in each fiscal year an amount equal to 4.2 basis points of each dollar of total new business purchases, and pay such amount to certain housing funds. We are prohibited from passing through the costs of the affordable housing funds assessment to the originators of the loans that we purchase.
The table below presents the components of legislative assessments expense.

Key Drivers:

l    The average loan size of new acquisitions increased due to a higher conforming loan limit and house price appreciation.

(Loan count in millions)fmcc-20220331_g23.jpg
n    Our Single-Family mortgage portfolio grew $426 billion, or 17%, year-over-year, primarily driven by continued house price appreciation and strong home purchase activity. Continued house price appreciation contributed to new business acquisitions having a higher average loan size compared to older vintages that continued to run off.
n    1Q 2022 vs. 1Q 2021 - The average guarantee fee rate charged on our Single-Family mortgage portfolio increased as older vintages with lower charged guarantee fee rates were replaced by acquisitions of new loans with higher charged guarantee fee rates.

n    During 1Q 2022 and 1Q 2021, 67% and 61%, respectively, of our Single-Family acquisitions were loans in the targeted population for our CRT transactions (primarily 30-year fixed rate loans with LTV ratios between 60% and 97%).
n    The UPB of mortgage loans covered by CRT transactions issued during 1Q 2022 decreased compared to 1Q 2021 due to a decrease in loan acquisition activity in recent quarters. The related maximum coverage increased as we obtained a higher amount of credit coverage on the recently acquired loans in response to higher capital requirements under the ERCF.

Loss Mitigation Activities
The following graph provides details about the single-family loan workout activities that were completed during the period. The forbearance data included below is limited to loans in forbearance that are past due based on the loans' original contractual terms and excludes both loans for which we do not control servicing and loans included in certain legacy transactions, as the forbearance data for such loans is either not reported to us by the servicers or is otherwise not readily available to us.
Completed Loan Workout Activity
(UPB in billions, number of loan workouts in thousands)
fmcc-20220331_g26.jpg
(1)Other includes repayment plans, loan modifications, and foreclosure alternatives.

n    Completed loan workout activity includes forbearance plans where borrowers fully reinstated the loan to current status during or at the end of the forbearance period, payment deferral plans, loan modifications, successfully completed repayment plans, short sales, and deeds in lieu of foreclosure. Completed loan workout activity excludes active loss mitigation activity that was ongoing and had not been completed as of the end of the quarter, such as forbearance plans that had been initiated but not completed and trial period modifications. There were approximately 49,000 loans in active forbearance plans and 16,000 loans in other active loss mitigation activity as of March 31, 2022.
n    1Q 2022 vs. 1Q 2021 - Our loan workout activity decreased as the overall forbearance population continues to decline.

Management's Discussion and AnalysisRisk Management


RISK MANAGEMENT
To achieve our mission, we take risks as an integral part of our business activities. We are exposed to the following key types of risk: credit risk, market risk, liquidity risk, operational risk, strategic risk, reputation risk, and legal risk.
Credit Risk
Allowance for Credit Losses
In 1Q 2022, we adopted accounting guidance that eliminates the recognition and measurement of TDRs. Upon adoption of this guidance, we no longer measure an allowance for credit losses for TDRs we reasonably expect will occur, and we no longer recognize an incremental allowance for credit losses for the economic concession granted to a borrower experiencing financial difficulty for changes in the timing and amount of contractual cash flows when a loan is restructured. See Note 3 for additional information on the adoption of this new accounting guidance.
The table below presents a summary of the changes in our allowance for credit losses and key allowance for credit losses ratios.

l    The ratio of allowance for credit losses to total loans outstanding decreased as the allowance for credit losses decreased due to the reserve release driven by observed house price appreciation and higher forecasted house prices.
l    The ratio of non-accrual loans to total loans outstanding decreased as borrowers continued to exit forbearance and complete loan workout activities that returned their mortgages to current status.

Geographic Concentrations
We purchase mortgage loans from across the U.S. However, local economic conditions can affect the borrower's ability to repay and the value of the underlying collateral, leading to concentrations of credit risk in certain geographic areas. In addition, certain states and municipalities have or may pass laws that limit our ability to foreclose or evict and make it more difficult and costly to manage our risk.
See Note 12 for more information about the geographic distribution of our Single-Family mortgage portfolio.

Transferring Credit Risk to Third-Party Investors
To reduce our credit risk exposure, we engage in a variety of CRT activities; however, securitizations remain our principal risk transfer mechanism. Through securitizations (i.e., subordination), we have transferred a substantial amount of the expected and stressed credit risk on the Multifamily mortgage portfolio, thereby reducing our overall credit risk exposure.

Market Risk
Overview
Our business segments have embedded exposure to market risk, which is the economic risk associated with adverse changes in interest rates, volatility, and spreads. Market risk can adversely affect future cash flows, or economic value, as well as earnings and net worth. The primary sources of interest-rate risk are our investments in mortgage-related assets, the debt we issue to fund these assets, and our Single-Family guarantees.
Interest-Rate Risk
Our primary interest-rate risk measures are duration gap and Portfolio Value Sensitivity (PVS). Duration gap measures the difference in price sensitivity to interest rate changes between our financial assets and liabilities and is expressed in months relative to the value of assets. PVS is an estimate of the change in the present value of the cash flows of our financial assets and liabilities from an instantaneous shock to interest rates, assuming spreads are held constant and no rebalancing actions are undertaken. PVS is measured in two ways, one measuring the estimated sensitivity of our portfolio value to a 50 basis point parallel movement in interest rates (PVS-L) and the other to a non-parallel movement resulting from a 25 basis point change in the slope of the yield curve (PVS-YC). While we believe that duration gap and PVS are useful risk management tools, they should be understood as estimates rather than as precise measurements.
The following tables provide our duration gap, estimated point-in-time and minimum and maximum PVS-L and PVS-YC results, and an average of the daily values and standard deviation. The table below also provides PVS-L estimates assuming an immediate 100 basis point shift in the yield curve. The interest-rate sensitivity of a mortgage portfolio varies across a wide range of interest rates.

Earnings Sensitivity to Market Risk
The accounting treatment for our financial assets and liabilities (i.e., some are measured at amortized cost, while others are measured at fair value) creates variability in our GAAP earnings when interest rates and spreads change. We manage this variability of GAAP earnings, which may not reflect the economics of our business, using fair value hedge accounting. See MD&A - Consolidated Results of Operations and MD&A - Our Business Segments for additional information on the effect of changes in interest rates and market spreads on our financial results.
Interest Rate-Related Earnings Sensitivity
While we manage our interest-rate risk exposure on an economic basis to a low level as measured by our models, changes in interest rates may still result in significant earnings variability from period to period.
By electing fair value hedge accounting for certain single-family mortgage loans and certain debt instruments, we are able to reduce the potential variability in our earnings attributable to changes in interest rates. See Note 8 for additional information on hedge accounting.
Earnings Sensitivity to Changes in Interest Rates
We evaluate a range of interest rate scenarios to determine the sensitivity of our earnings due to changes in interest rates and to determine our fair value hedge accounting strategies. The interest rate scenarios evaluated include parallel shifts in the yield curve in which interest rates increase or decrease by 100 basis points, non-parallel shifts in the yield curve in which long-term interest rates increase or decrease by 100 basis points, and non-parallel shifts in the yield curve in which short-term and medium-term interest rates increase or decrease by 100 basis points. This evaluation identifies the net effect on comprehensive income from changes in fair value attributable to changes in interest rates for financial instruments measured at fair value, including the effects of fair value hedge accounting, for each of the identified scenarios. This evaluation does not include the net effect on comprehensive income from interest-rate sensitive items that are not measured at fair value (e.g., amortization of mortgage loan premiums and discounts, changes in fair value of held-for-sale mortgage loans for which we have not elected the fair value option), or from changes in our future contractual net interest income due to repricing of our interest-bearing assets and liabilities. The before-tax results of this evaluation are shown in the table below.

(1)The earnings sensitivity presented is calculated using the change in interest rates and net effective duration exposure.
The actual effect of changes in interest rates on our comprehensive income in any given period may vary based on a number of factors, including, but not limited to, the composition of our assets and liabilities, the actual changes in interest rates that are realized at different terms along the yield curve, and the effectiveness of our hedge accounting strategies. Even if implemented properly, our hedge accounting programs may not be effective in reducing earnings volatility, and our hedges may fail in any given future period, which could expose us to significant earnings variability in that period.

Other Investments Portfolio
Our other investments portfolio is important to our cash flow, collateral management, asset and liability management, and ability to provide liquidity and stability to the mortgage market.
Our non-mortgage-related investments in the liquidity and contingency operating portfolio consist of U.S. Treasury securities and other investments that we could sell to provide us with an additional source of liquidity to fund our business operations. We also maintain non-interest-bearing deposits at the Federal Reserve Bank of New York and interest-bearing deposits at commercial banks. Our interest-bearing deposits at commercial banks totaled $3.3 billion and $3.5 billion as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.
The other investments portfolio also included cash collateral posted to us primarily by derivatives counterparties of $1.1 billion and $1.2 billion as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. We have primarily invested this collateral in securities purchased under agreements to resell and non-mortgage-related securities as part of our liquidity and contingency operating portfolio, although the collateral may be subject to return to our counterparties based on the terms of our master netting and collateral agreements. See MD&A - Our Portfolios - Investments Portfolio - Other Investments Portfolio for more information about our other investments portfolio.
Mortgage Loans and Mortgage-Related Securities
We invest principally in mortgage loans and mortgage-related securities, certain categories of which are largely unencumbered and liquid. Our primary source of liquidity among these mortgage assets is our holdings of agency securities.

(2)STACR debt notes and SCR debt notes are subject to prepayment risk as their payments are based upon the performance of a reference pool of mortgage assets that may be prepaid by the related mortgage borrower at any time generally without penalty and are, therefore, included as a separate category in the table.
Debt Securities of Consolidated Trusts
The largest component of debt on our condensed consolidated balance sheets is debt securities of consolidated trusts, which relates to securitization transactions that we consolidate for accounting purposes. We primarily issue this type of debt by securitizing mortgage loans to fund our Single-Family activities.
The table below shows activity for the debt securities of our consolidated trusts.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We enter into certain business arrangements that are not recorded on our condensed consolidated balance sheets or that may be recorded in amounts that differ from the full contractual or notional amount of the transaction that affect our short- and long-term liquidity needs. Certain of these arrangements present credit risk exposure. See MD&A - Risk Management - Credit Risk for additional information on our credit risk exposure on off-balance sheet arrangements.
Guarantees
We have certain off-balance sheet arrangements related to our securitization and other mortgage-related guarantee activities. Our off-balance sheet arrangements related to securitization activities primarily consist of guaranteed K Certificates and SB Certificates. Our guarantee of these securitization activities and other mortgage-related guarantees may result in liquidity needs to cover potential cash flow shortfalls from borrower defaults. As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the outstanding UPB of the guaranteed securities was $365.7 billion and $366.0 billion, respectively.

Management's Discussion and AnalysisLiquidity and Capital Resources
In addition to our securitization and other mortgage-related guarantees, we have certain other guarantees that are accounted for as derivative instruments. These other guarantees are recognized on our condensed consolidated balance sheets at fair value and not included in the totals above. See Note 8 for additional information on these guarantees.
We have the ability to commingle TBA-eligible Fannie Mae collateral in certain of our resecuritization products. When we resecuritize Fannie Mae securities in our commingled resecuritization products, our guarantee covers timely payments of principal and interest on such securities. Accordingly, commingling Fannie Mae collateral in our resecuritization transactions increases our off-balance sheet liquidity exposure as we do not have control over the Fannie Mae collateral. As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the total amount of our off-balance sheet exposure related to Fannie Mae securities backing Freddie Mac resecuritization products was approximately $118.3 billion and $111.2 billion, respectively.
Cash Flows
Cash and cash equivalents (including restricted cash and cash equivalents) decreased by $90.5 billion from $101.0 billion as of March 31, 2021 to $10.5 billion as of March 31, 2022, primarily driven by an increase in securities purchased under agreements to resell.

ERCF
FHFA has established the ERCF as a new enterprise regulatory capital framework for Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae. Our current capital levels are significantly below the levels that would be required under the ERCF. The ERCF has a transition period for compliance, and we are not required to comply with the regulatory capital requirements or the buffer requirements while in conservatorship. In general, the compliance date for the regulatory capital requirements will be the later of the date of termination of our conservatorship and any later compliance date provided in a transition order, and the compliance date for buffer requirements in the ERCF will be the date of termination of our conservatorship. Pursuant to the final rule, we are required to comply with the regulatory capital reporting requirements under the ERCF in 2022, with our initial quarterly capital report due by May 30, 2022.
The ERCF establishes risk-based and leverage capital requirements and includes supplemental capital requirements relating to the amount and form of the capital we hold, based largely on definitions of capital used in U.S. banking regulators' regulatory capital framework. The ERCF capital requirements contain both statutory capital elements (total capital and core capital) and regulatory capital elements (common equity tier 1 (CET1) capital, Tier 1 capital, and adjusted total capital). The ERCF also includes a requirement that we hold prescribed capital buffers that can be drawn down in periods of financial stress and then rebuilt over time as economic conditions improve. If we fall below the prescribed buffer amounts, we must restrict capital distributions such as stock repurchases and dividends, as well as discretionary bonus payments to executives, until the buffer amounts are restored.
Risk-Based Capital Requirements
Under the ERCF risk-based capital requirements, we must maintain our CET1 capital, Tier 1 capital, and adjusted total capital ratios equal to at least 4.5%, 6%, and 8%, respectively, of risk-weighted assets. We must also maintain statutory total capital equal to at least 8% of risk-weighted assets. To avoid limits on capital distributions and discretionary bonus payments, we also must maintain CET1 capital that exceeds the risk-based capital requirements by at least the amount of the prescribed capital conservation buffer amount (PCCBA).

Management's Discussion and AnalysisLiquidity and Capital Resources

Leverage Capital Requirements
Under the ERCF leverage capital requirements, we must maintain our Tier 1 capital ratio equal to at least 2.5% of adjusted total assets. We must also maintain our statutory core capital ratio equal to at least 2.5% of adjusted total assets. To avoid limits on capital distributions and discretionary bonus payments, we also must maintain our Tier 1 capital that exceeds the leverage capital requirements by at least the amount of the prescribed leverage buffer amount (PLBA).

Management's Discussion and AnalysisCritical Accounting Estimates
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES
Our critical accounting estimates and policies relate to the Single-Family allowance for credit losses. For additional information about our critical accounting estimates and other significant accounting policies, see Note 1 and Critical Accounting Estimates in our 2021 Annual Report.
Single-Family Allowance for Credit Losses
The Single-Family allowance for credit losses represents our estimate of expected credit losses over the contractual term of the mortgage loans. The Single-Family allowance for credit losses pertains to all held-for-investment single-family mortgage loans on our condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Determining the appropriateness of the Single-Family allowance for credit losses is a complex process that is subject to numerous estimates and assumptions requiring significant management judgment about matters that involve a high degree of subjectivity. This process involves the use of models that require us to make judgments about matters that are difficult to predict, the most significant of which are the probability of default and severity of expected credit losses.
Changes in forecasted house price growth rates can have a significant effect on our allowance for credit losses. Our estimate of expected credit losses leverages our historical experience, such as historical default rates and severity of loss, and current and future economic forecasts, and incorporates an internally-based model that uses a Monte Carlo simulation which generates many possible combinations of house price and interest rate scenarios for up to 40 years for each metropolitan statistical area (MSA). These scenarios are used to estimate loan-level expected future cash flows and credit losses based on each loan's individual characteristics. The table below shows our nationwide forecasted house price growth rates that were used in determining our allowance for credit losses as of March 31, 2022 and as of December 31, 2021. These growth rates are used as inputs to our models to develop the detailed forecasted life-of-loan house price growth rates for each MSA. See Note 5 for additional information regarding our current period benefit (provision) for credit losses and estimation process.

Management's Discussion and AnalysisRegulation and Supervision

REGULATION AND SUPERVISION
In addition to oversight by FHFA as our Conservator, we are subject to regulation and oversight by FHFA under our Charter and the GSE Act and to certain regulation by other government agencies. Furthermore, regulatory activities by other government agencies can affect us indirectly, even if we are not directly subject to such agencies' regulation or oversight. For example, regulations that modify requirements applicable to the purchase or servicing of mortgages can affect us.
Federal Housing Finance Agency
FHFA's Strategic Plan: Fiscal Years 2022 - 2026
In April 2022, FHFA released its Strategic Plan for fiscal years 2022-2026. The Strategic Plan provides a framework that outlines FHFA’s priorities for the coming years as regulator of the Federal Home Loan Bank System and as regulator and conservator of Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae. The Strategic Plan continues existing priorities and formalizes areas of focus for FHFA and its regulated entities by establishing three goals:
n Secure the regulated entities' safety and soundness;
n Foster housing finance markets that promote equitable access to affordable and sustainable housing; and
n Responsibly steward FHFA's infrastructure.
Legislative and Regulatory Developments
FHFA Final Rule Amending the ERCF
On February 25, 2022, FHFA issued a final rule that amends the ERCF by refining the PLBA and risk-based capital treatment of retained CRT exposure for the Enterprises. Specifically, the final rule will replace the fixed PLBA equal to 1.5% of an Enterprise's adjusted total assets with a dynamic PLBA equal to 50% of the Enterprise's stability capital buffer (which is related to the Enterprise's relative share of total residential mortgage debt outstanding that exceeds 5%); replace the prudential floor of 10% on the risk weight assigned to any retained CRT exposure with a prudential floor of 5% on the risk weight assigned to any retained CRT exposure; and remove the requirement that an Enterprise must apply an overall effectiveness adjustment to its retained CRT exposures. The final rule will also make technical corrections to various provisions of the ERCF that was published on December 17, 2020. The effective date for the ERCF amendments and technical corrections in this final rule is May 16, 2022, and our report pursuant to this final rule must be filed by May 30, 2022.
Consistent with FHFA instruction, we are reporting our regulatory capital requirements under the ERCF as amended. Therefore, we are not in compliance with the Purchase Agreement covenant that requires us to comply with the terms of the ERCF as published by FHFA in December 2020. FHFA has acknowledged this non-compliance.
LIBOR Act
On March 15, 2022, President Biden signed into law the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2022 which includes the Adjustable Interest Rate (LIBOR) Act. This law became effective immediately and will (1) establish a clear and uniform process, on a nationwide basis, for replacing LIBOR in existing contracts, the terms of which do not provide for the use of a clearly defined or practicable replacement benchmark rate, without affecting the ability of parties to use any appropriate benchmark rate in new contracts; (2) preclude litigation related to existing contracts, the terms of which do not provide for the use of a clearly defined or practicable replacement benchmark rate; and (3) allow existing contracts that reference LIBOR but provide for the use of a clearly defined fallback and practicable replacement rate to operate according to their terms.
Interagency Plan to Advance Property Appraisal and Valuation Equity
On March 23, 2022, the Interagency Committee to Advance Property Appraisal and Valuation Equity released an Action Plan to which more than a dozen federal agencies, including FHFA, contributed. The Action Plan outlines the historical role of racism in the valuation of residential property; examines the various forms of bias that can appear in residential property valuation practices; describes affirmative steps that federal agencies will take to advance equity in the appraisal process; and outlines further recommendations that government and industry stakeholders can initiate. The Action Plan broadly underscores the Biden Administration’s focus on equity and fair lending, particularly in the collateral appraisal and valuation space.

NOTE 1
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Freddie Mac is a GSE chartered by Congress in 1970, with a mission to provide liquidity, stability, and affordability to the U.S. housing market. We are regulated by FHFA, the SEC, HUD, and Treasury, and are currently operating under the conservatorship of FHFA. The conservatorship and related matters significantly affect our management, business activities, financial condition, and results of operations. In connection with our entry into conservatorship, we entered into the Purchase Agreement with Treasury, under which we issued Treasury both senior preferred stock and a warrant to purchase common stock. Our Purchase Agreement with Treasury is critical to keeping us solvent and avoiding the appointment of a receiver by FHFA under statutory mandatory receivership provisions. We believe the support provided by Treasury pursuant to the Purchase Agreement currently enables us to have adequate liquidity to conduct normal business activities. For more information on the conservatorship, the roles of FHFA and Treasury, and the Purchase Agreement, see our 2021 Annual Report. Throughout our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes, we use certain acronyms and terms which are defined in the Glossary of our 2021 Annual Report.
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes in our 2021 Annual Report.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP and include our accounts as well as the accounts of other entities in which we have a controlling financial interest. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
We are operating under the basis that we will realize assets and satisfy liabilities in the normal course of business as a going concern and in accordance with the authority provided by FHFA to our Board of Directors to oversee management's conduct of our business operations. In the opinion of management, our unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair statement of our results.
We have reclassified certain amounts within non-interest expense in our condensed consolidated statement of operations to better present the significant drivers of our non-interest expense activity. Prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. These reclassifications did not change the total amounts of non-interest expense, net income, or comprehensive income in any period presented.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. Management has made significant estimates to report the allowance for credit losses on single-family mortgage loans. Actual results could be different from these estimates.

The amendments in this Update require issuers to account for modifications or exchanges of freestanding equity-classified written call options based on the reason for the modification or exchange, to issue equity, to issue or modify debt, or for other reasons.January 1, 2022The adoption of the amendments did not have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.
ASU 2022-02, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures
The amendments in this Update eliminate the recognition and measurement guidance related to TDRs in ASC Subtopic 310-40 for entities that have adopted ASC Topic 326.

The amendments in this Update also require disclosure of current period gross write-offs by year of origination for financing receivables within the scope of ASC Subtopic 326-20.
January 1, 2022 for the amendments related to the elimination of the recognition and measurement of TDRs;

January 1, 2023 for the amendments related to disclosure of gross write-offs by year of origination.
We elected to early adopt the amendments related to the elimination of the recognition and measurement of TDRs on January 1, 2022 on a prospective basis. This change did not have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements. See Note 3 for additional information on the adoption of these amendments and the new required disclosures.

The ASU amends the guidance in ASU 2017-12 that, among other things, establishes the "last-of-layer" method for making the fair value hedge accounting for these portfolios more accessible by allowing the entities to apply the portfolio layer method to portfolios of all financial assets, including both prepayable and nonprepayable financial assets.

Securitization Activities and Consolidation
Nonconsolidated VIEs
The following table presents the carrying amounts and classification of the assets and liabilities recorded on our condensed consolidated balance sheets related to VIEs for which we are not the primary beneficiary and with which we were involved in the design and creation and have a significant continuing involvement. Our involvement with such VIEs primarily consists of investments in debt securities issued by resecuritization trusts and guarantees of senior securities issued by certain Multifamily securitization trusts.

(2)Includes our guarantee asset in other assets and our guarantee obligation in other liabilities.
We also obtain interests in various other entities created by third parties through the normal course of business that may be VIEs, such as through our investments in certain non-Freddie Mac mortgage-related securities, purchases of multifamily loans, guarantees of multifamily housing revenue bonds, as a derivative counterparty, or through other activities. To the extent that we were not involved in the design or creation of these VIEs, they are excluded from the table above. Our interests in these VIEs are generally passive in nature and are not expected to result in us obtaining a controlling financial interest in these VIEs in the future. As a result, we do not consolidate these VIEs and we account for our interests in these VIEs in the same manner that we account for our interests in other third-party transactions. See Note 6 for additional information regarding our investments in non-Freddie Mac mortgage-related securities. See Note 3 for more information regarding multifamily loans.
The table below presents total assets and the maximum exposure to loss of the VIEs for which we are not the primary beneficiary and therefore do not consolidate.

(1)For securitization activities, the maximum exposure primarily represents the contractual amounts that could be lost if counterparties or borrowers defaulted, without consideration of proceeds from related collateral liquidation and possible recoveries under credit enhancements. For CRT activities, the maximum exposure represents our recorded expected recovery receivable.
(2)Total assets excludes certain nonfinancial assets held by the VIEs.
In addition, the UPB of Fannie Mae securities underlying commingled Freddie Mac resecuritization trusts for which we are not the primary beneficiary totaled $117.6 billion and $110.8 billion as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. See Note 4 for additional information on our guarantee of Fannie Mae securities.

Financial Statements
                                       Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements | Note 2
We do not believe the maximum exposure to loss from our involvement with VIEs for which we are not the primary beneficiary shown above is representative of the actual loss we are likely to incur, based on our historical loss experience and after consideration of proceeds from related collateral liquidation, including possible recoveries under credit enhancements. Certain of our interest-rate risk-related guarantees to VIEs for which we are not the primary beneficiary may create exposure to loss that is unlimited. We account for these interest-rate risk-related guarantees at fair value as discussed further in Note 4 and generally reduce our exposure to these guarantees with unlimited interest rate exposure through separate derivative contracts with third parties. See Note 8 for additional information on derivatives.

Credit Quality
Single-Family
The current LTV ratio is one key factor we consider when estimating our allowance for credit losses for single-family loans. As current LTV ratios increase, the borrower's equity in the home decreases, which may negatively affect the borrower's ability to refinance (outside of our relief refinance programs) or to sell the property for an amount at or above the balance of the outstanding loan.

Multifamily
The table below presents the amortized cost basis of our multifamily held-for-investment loans, by credit quality indicator, based on available data through the end of each period presented. These indicators involve significant management judgment and are defined as follows:
n    "Pass" is current and adequately protected by the borrower's current financial strength and debt service capacity;
n    "Special mention" has administrative issues that may affect future repayment prospects but does not have current credit     weaknesses. In addition, this category generally includes loans in forbearance;
n    "Substandard" has a weakness that jeopardizes the timely full repayment; and
n    "Doubtful" has a weakness that makes collection or liquidation in full highly questionable and improbable based on existing conditions.

(1)Includes $1.1 billion and $0.7 billion of single-family loans that were in the process of foreclosure as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.
(2)Loans with no allowance for loan losses primarily represent those loans that were previously charged off and therefore the collateral value is sufficiently in excess of the amortized cost to result in recovery of the entire amortized cost basis if the property were foreclosed upon or otherwise subject to disposition. We exclude the amounts of allowance for credit losses on accrued interest receivable and advances of pre-foreclosure costs when determining whether a loan has an allowance for credit losses.
Loan Restructurings
In 1Q 2022, we adopted accounting guidance in ASU 2022-02 that eliminates the recognition and measurement of TDRs. Upon adoption of this guidance, we no longer measure an allowance for credit losses for TDRs we reasonably expect will occur, and we evaluate all loan restructurings according to the accounting guidance for loan refinancing and restructuring to determine whether the restructuring should be accounted for as a new loan or a continuation of the existing loan. We derecognize the existing loan and account for the restructured loan as a new loan if the effective yield on the restructured loan is at least equal to the effective yield for comparable loans with similar collection risks and the modifications to the original loan are more than minor. If a loan restructuring does not meet these conditions, we carryforward the existing loan’s amortized cost basis and account for the restructured loan as a continuation of the existing loan. Substantially all of our loan restructurings involving borrowers experiencing financial difficulty are accounted for as a continuation of the existing loan.
The discounted cash flow model we use in measuring our Single-Family allowance for credit losses forecasts cash flows we expect to collect using our historical experience, including the effects of our loss mitigation activities involving borrowers experiencing financial difficulty. When we account for a loan restructuring as a continuation of the existing loan, we update the loan’s effective interest rate based on the restructured terms and recognize interest income prospectively using the new effective rate. We also update the prepayment-adjusted effective interest rate used to discount cash flows in measuring our allowance for credit losses to reflect the loan’s restructured terms. As a result, subsequent to our adoption of the accounting guidance that eliminates the recognition and measurement of TDRs, we no longer recognize an allowance for credit losses for the economic concession granted to a borrower for changes in the timing and amount of contractual cash flows when a loan is restructured. However, because we adopted such guidance prospectively, we continue to use the loan's prepayment-adjusted effective interest rate just prior to the restructuring, with no adjustments made to the effective interest rate for changes in the timing of expected cash flows subsequent to the restructuring, for loans that were restructured and accounted for as TDRs prior to our adoption of the guidance and that have not been subsequently modified after our adoption of the guidance. As a result, we continue to measure an allowance for credit losses for the economic concession granted to a borrower for changes in the timing and amount of contractual cash flows for such loans.
Single-Family Loan Restructurings
We offer several types of restructurings to single-family borrowers that may result in a payment delay, interest rate reduction, term extension, or combination thereof. We do not offer principal forgiveness.
We offer the following types of restructurings to single-family borrowers that result in only a payment delay:
n    Forbearance plans - Arrangements that require reduced or no payments during a defined period that provides borrowers additional time to return to compliance with the original mortgage terms or to implement another type of loan workout option. Borrowers may exit forbearance by repaying all past due amounts and fully reinstating the loan, paying off the loan in full, or entering into a repayment plan, a payment deferral plan, or a trial period plan pursuant to a loan modification. We offer forbearance of up to 12 months to single-family borrowers experiencing financial difficulty (and up to 18 months to certain borrowers affected by the COVID-19 pandemic). Borrowers may receive an initial forbearance term of one to six months and, if necessary, one or more forbearance term extensions of one to six months, as long as the delinquency of the mortgage does not exceed 12 months.
Freddie Mac 1Q 2022 Form 10-Q
61

Financial Statements
                         Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements | Note 3


n    Repayment plans - Contractual plans that allow borrowers a specific period of time to return to current status by paying the normal monthly payment plus additional agreed upon delinquent amounts. Repayment plans must have a term greater than one month and less than or equal to 12 months and the monthly repayment plan payment amount must not exceed 150% of the contractual mortgage payment amount.
n    Payment deferral plans - Arrangements that allow borrowers to return to current status by deferring delinquent principal and interest into a non-interest-bearing principal balance that is due at the earlier of the payoff date, maturity date, or sale of the property. The remaining mortgage term, interest rate, payment schedule, and maturity date remain unchanged, and no trial period plan is required. The number of months of payments deferred varies based upon the type of hardship the borrower is experiencing.
In addition, we also offer single-family borrowers loan modifications, which are contractual plans that may involve changing the terms of the loan such as payment delays, interest rate reductions, term extensions, or a combination of these items. Payment delays in our loan modification programs most commonly consist of adding outstanding indebtedness, such as delinquent interest, to the UPB of the loan, and may also include principal forbearance, in which a portion of the principal balance becomes non-interest-bearing and is due at the earlier of the payoff date, maturity date, or sale of the property. Our modification programs generally require completion of a trial period of at least three months prior to receiving the modification. Most of our modifications involve a combination of: (1) a payment delay in the form of adding outstanding indebtedness to the UPB of the loan, and (2) an interest rate reduction, a term extension, or both.
The table below contains details on Single-Family held-for-investment loan restructurings involving borrowers experiencing financial difficulty that we entered into during 1Q 2022.

(1)     Averages are based on payment deferral plans and loan modifications completed during the periods presented. The financial effects of forbearance plans and repayment plans consist of a payment delay of between one and twelve months. In addition, the financial effect of a forbearance plan is included at the time the forbearance plan is completed if the borrower exits forbearance by entering into a payment deferral plan or loan modification.
(2)     Primarily related to payment deferral plans. Amounts are based on non-interest-bearing principal balances on the restructured loans.
The balance of single-family loans restructured by entering into payment deferral plans or loan modifications during 1Q 2022 involving borrowers experiencing financial difficulty that subsequently defaulted (i.e., loans that became two months delinquent) was insignificant. Single-family loans restructured by entering into forbearance plans or repayment plans during 1Q 2022 involving borrowers experiencing financial difficulty generally remained in default as borrowers were typically past due based on the loans' original contractual terms at the time the borrowers entered into these plans.
The table below presents the amortized cost basis of single-family held-for-investment loans restructured during 1Q 2022 by payment status. While a single-family loan is in a forbearance plan or repayment plan, payments continue to be due based on the loan’s original contractual terms because the loan has not been permanently modified. As a result, we report single-family loans in forbearance plans and repayment plans as delinquent to the extent that payments are past due based on the loan’s

Multifamily Loan Restructurings
We offer several types of restructurings to multifamily borrowers that may result in a payment delay, interest rate reduction, term extension, principal forgiveness, or combination thereof. In certain cases, we offer multifamily borrowers forbearance plans that allow borrowers to defer monthly payments during a defined period. After the forbearance period ends, the borrowers are required to repay forborne loan amounts in monthly installments. In addition, in certain cases, for maturing loans we may provide term extensions with no changes to the effective borrowing rate. In other cases, we may make more significant modifications of terms for borrowers experiencing financial difficulty, such as interest rate reductions, term extensions, providing principal forbearance and/or forgiveness, or some combination of these items. There were no restructuring activities related to Multifamily held-for-investment loans involving borrowers experiencing financial difficulty for the three months ended March 31, 2022.

NOTE 8
Derivatives
We use derivatives primarily to hedge interest-rate sensitivity mismatches between our financial assets and liabilities. We analyze the interest-rate sensitivity of financial assets and liabilities across a variety of interest-rate scenarios based on market prices, models, and economics. When we use derivatives to mitigate our exposures, we consider a number of factors, including cost, exposure to counterparty risk, and our overall risk management strategy.
We apply fair value hedge accounting to certain single-family mortgage loans and certain issuances of debt where we hedge the changes in fair value of these items attributable to the designated benchmark interest rate (i.e., LIBOR), using LIBOR-based interest-rate swaps.
Derivative Assets and Liabilities at Fair Value

Collateral Pledged
Collateral Pledged to Freddie Mac
We have cash pledged to us as collateral primarily related to OTC derivative transactions. We had $1.1 billion and $1.2 billion pledged to us as collateral that was invested as part of our other investments portfolio as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.
We primarily execute securities purchased under agreements to resell transactions with central clearing organizations where we have the right to repledge the collateral that has been pledged to us, either with the central clearing organization or with other counterparties. At March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, we had $34.5 billion and $32.7 billion, respectively, of securities pledged to us in these transactions. In addition, as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, we had $0.9 billion and $0.8 billion, respectively, of securities pledged to us for transactions involving securities purchased under agreements to resell not executed with central clearing organizations that we had the right to repledge. At March 31, 2022, we repledged collateral with fair value of $1.0 billion.
Collateral Pledged by Freddie Mac
For cash collateral related to commitments and securities purchased under agreements to resell transactions primarily with central clearing organizations, we posted less than $0.1 billion as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

Segment Reporting
As shown in the table below, we have two reportable segments, Single-Family and Multifamily.
Segment
Description
Single-Family
Reflects results from our purchase, securitization, and guarantee of single-family loans, our investments in single-family loans and mortgage-related securities, the management of Single-Family mortgage credit risk and market risk, and any results of our treasury function that are not allocated to each segment.

Multifamily
Reflects results from our purchase, securitization, and guarantee of multifamily loans, our investments in multifamily loans and mortgage-related securities, and the management of Multifamily mortgage credit risk and market risk.


Segment Allocations and Results
The results of each reportable segment include directly attributable revenues and expenses. We allocate interest expense and other funding and hedging-related costs and returns on certain investments to each reportable segment using a funds transfer pricing process. We fully allocate to each reportable segment administrative expenses and other centrally-incurred costs that are not directly attributable to a particular segment using various methodologies depending on the nature of the expense. As a result, the sum of each income statement line item for the two reportable segments is equal to that same income statement line item for the consolidated entity.
The table below presents the financial results for our Single-Family and Multifamily segments.

Assets Measured at Fair Value on a Non-Recurring Basis
We may be required, from time to time, to measure certain assets at fair value on a non-recurring basis. These adjustments usually result from the application of lower-of-cost-or-fair-value accounting or measurement of impairment based on the fair value of the underlying collateral. Certain of the fair values in the tables below were not obtained as of period end, but were obtained during the period.
The table below presents assets measured on our condensed consolidated balance sheets at fair value on a non-recurring basis.

The table below presents the carrying value and estimated fair value of our financial instruments. For certain types of financial instruments, such as cash and cash equivalents, securities purchased under agreements to resell, secured lending, and certain debt, the carrying value on our GAAP balance sheets approximates fair value, as these assets and liabilities are short-term in nature and have limited fair value volatility.

NOTE 14
Legal Contingencies
We are involved as a party in a variety of legal and regulatory proceedings arising from time to time in the ordinary course of business including, among other things, contractual disputes, personal injury claims, employment-related litigation, and other legal proceedings incidental to our business. We are frequently involved, directly or indirectly, in litigation involving mortgage foreclosures. From time to time, we are also involved in proceedings arising from our termination of a seller's or servicer's eligibility to sell loans to, and/or service loans for, us. In these cases, the former seller or servicer sometimes seeks damages against us for wrongful termination under a variety of legal theories. In addition, we are sometimes sued in connection with the origination or servicing of loans. These suits typically involve claims alleging wrongful actions of sellers and servicers. Our contracts with our sellers and servicers generally provide for indemnification of Freddie Mac against liability arising from sellers' and servicers' wrongful actions with respect to loans sold to or serviced for Freddie Mac.
Litigation and claims resolution are subject to many uncertainties and are not susceptible to accurate prediction. In accordance with the accounting guidance for contingencies, we reserve for litigation claims and assessments asserted or threatened against us when a loss is probable (as defined in such guidance) and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated.
Putative Securities Class Action Lawsuit: Ohio Public Employees Retirement System vs. Freddie Mac, Syron, Et Al.
This putative securities class action lawsuit was filed against Freddie Mac and certain former officers on January 18, 2008 in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Ohio purportedly on behalf of a class of purchasers of Freddie Mac stock from August 1, 2006 through November 20, 2007. FHFA later intervened as Conservator, and the plaintiff amended its complaint on several occasions. The plaintiff alleged, among other things, that the defendants violated federal securities laws by making false and misleading statements concerning our business, risk management, and the procedures we put into place to protect the company from problems in the mortgage industry. The plaintiff seeks unspecified damages and interest, and reasonable costs and expenses, including attorney and expert fees.
In October 2013, defendants filed motions to dismiss the complaint. In October 2014, the District Court granted defendants' motions and dismissed the case in its entirety against all defendants, with prejudice. In November 2014, plaintiff filed a notice of appeal in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit. In July 2016, the Sixth Circuit reversed the District Court's dismissal and remanded the case to the District Court for further proceedings. In August 2018, the District Court denied the plaintiff's motion for class certification, and in January 2019, the Sixth Circuit denied plaintiff's petition for leave to appeal that decision. On September 17, 2020, the District Court granted a request from the plaintiff for summary judgment and entered final judgment in favor of Freddie Mac and the other defendants. On October 9, 2020, the plaintiff filed a notice of appeal in the Sixth Circuit. On January 27, 2021, Freddie Mac filed a motion to dismiss the appeal, which the Sixth Circuit denied on January 6, 2022.
At present, it is not possible for us to predict the probable outcome of this lawsuit or any potential effect on our business, financial condition, liquidity, or results of operations. In addition, we are unable to reasonably estimate the possible loss or range of possible loss in the event of an adverse judgment in the foregoing matter due to the following factors, among others: the inherent uncertainty of the appellate process, and the inherent uncertainty of pre-trial litigation in the event the case is ultimately remanded to the District Court in whole or in part. In particular, while the District Court denied plaintiff's motion for class certification, this decision and the entry of final judgment in defendants' favor have been appealed. Absent a final resolution of whether a class will be certified, the identification of a class if one is certified, and the identification of the alleged statement or statements that survive dispositive motions, we cannot reasonably estimate any possible loss or range of possible loss.
LIBOR Lawsuit
On March 14, 2013, Freddie Mac filed a lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia against the British Bankers Association and the 16 U.S. Dollar LIBOR panel banks and a number of their affiliates. The case was subsequently transferred to the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York. The complaint alleges, among other things, that the defendants fraudulently and collusively depressed LIBOR, a benchmark interest rate indexed to trillions of dollars of financial products, and asserts claims for antitrust violations, breach of contract, tortious interference with contract, and fraud. Freddie Mac filed an amended complaint in July 2013, and a second amended complaint in October 2014. In August 2015, the District Court dismissed the portion of our claim related to antitrust violations and fraud and we filed a motion for reconsideration. In March 2016, the District Court granted a portion of our motion, finding personal jurisdiction over certain defendants, and denied the portion of our motion with respect to statutes of limitation for our fraud claims.

In May 2016, in a related case, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit reversed the District Court's dismissal of certain plaintiffs' antitrust claims and remanded the case to the District Court for consideration of whether, among other things, the plaintiffs are "efficient enforcers" of the antitrust laws. In December 2016, the District Court denied in part and granted in part defendants' renewed motions to dismiss on personal jurisdiction and efficient enforcer grounds. The District Court held that Freddie Mac is an efficient enforcer of the antitrust laws, but dismissed on personal jurisdiction grounds Freddie Mac's antitrust claims against all defendants except HSBC USA, N.A. (HSBC). In February 2017, the District Court effectively dismissed Freddie Mac's remaining antitrust claim against HSBC.
In February 2018, in a related case, the Second Circuit reversed the District Court's dismissal of certain plaintiffs' state law fraud and unjust enrichment claims on statutes of limitations grounds. The Second Circuit also reversed certain aspects of the District Court's personal jurisdiction rulings and remanded with instructions to allow the named appellant to amend its complaint. The District Court subsequently granted in part Freddie Mac's motion for leave to amend its complaint, and Freddie Mac filed its third amended complaint in April 2019. Subsequently, the District Court held that Freddie Mac's fraud claims were not reinstated by the Second Circuit's February 2018 decision.
In December 2021, in a related case, the Second Circuit reversed the District Court’s December 2016 ruling with respect to certain personal jurisdiction issues. While Freddie Mac was not a party to that appeal, this ruling may apply to Freddie Mac’s claims.
In January 2022, in a related case, the Second Circuit reversed the District Court’s dismissal of certain class plaintiffs’ state law fraud claims on personal jurisdiction and statutes of limitations grounds. While Freddie Mac was not a party to that appeal, this ruling may apply to Freddie Mac’s claims.
At present, Freddie Mac's only remaining causes of action are certain contract-based claims against Bank of America, N.A., Barclays Bank, Citibank, N.A., Credit Suisse, Deutsche Bank, Royal Bank of Scotland, and UBS AG.
Litigation Concerning the Purchase Agreement
Since July 2013, a number of lawsuits have been filed against us concerning the August 2012 amendment to the Purchase Agreement, which created the net worth sweep dividend provisions of the senior preferred stock. The plaintiffs in the lawsuits allege that they are holders of common stock and/or junior preferred stock issued by Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae. (For purposes of this discussion, junior preferred stock refers to the various series of preferred stock of Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae other than the senior preferred stock issued to Treasury.) It is possible that similar lawsuits will be filed in the future. The lawsuits against us are described below.
Litigation in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia
In re Fannie Mae/Freddie Mac Senior Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement Class Action Litigations. This is a consolidated class action lawsuit filed by private individual and institutional investors (collectively, “Class Plaintiffs”) against FHFA, Fannie Mae, and Freddie Mac.
Fairholme Funds, Inc., et al. v. FHFA, et al. This is an individual plaintiffs’ lawsuit filed by certain institutional investors (“Individual Plaintiffs”) against FHFA and its Director, Treasury, Fannie Mae, and Freddie Mac.
Plaintiffs in each of the District of Columbia lawsuits filed an amended complaint on November 1, 2017 alleging claims for breach of contract, breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing, breach of fiduciary duties, and violation of Delaware and Virginia corporate law. Additionally, the Class Plaintiffs brought derivative claims against FHFA for breach of fiduciary duties and the Individual Plaintiffs brought claims under the Administrative Procedure Act. Both sets of claims are generally based on allegations that the net worth sweep dividend provisions of the senior preferred stock that were implemented pursuant to the August 2012 amendments nullified certain of the shareholders’ rights, including the rights to receive dividends and a liquidation preference. Class Plaintiffs and Individual Plaintiffs seek unspecified damages, equitable and injunctive relief, and costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees.
On January 10, 2018, FHFA and its Director, Fannie Mae, and Freddie Mac moved to dismiss the amended complaints. On September 28, 2018, the District Court dismissed all of the claims except those for breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing. On December 7, 2021, the District Court certified three classes in the In Re Fannie Mae/Freddie Mac Senior Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement Class Action Litigations based on share type, including a "Freddie Preferred Class" for holders of Freddie Mac junior preferred stock and a "Freddie Common Class" for holders of Freddie Mac common stock. To be included in one of these classes, shareholders must have held their shares as of December 7, 2021 or acquired their shares after December 7, 2021 and before any final judgment is entered or settlement is reached in the lawsuit. The parties filed motions for summary judgment on March 21, 2022 in both the In re Fannie Mae/Freddie Mac Senior Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement Class Action Litigations and the Fairholme Funds lawsuit. Trial in both cases is currently scheduled to begin on July 11, 2022.

Litigation in the U.S. Court of Federal Claims
Reid and Fisher vs. the United States of America and Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation. This case was filed as a derivative lawsuit, purportedly on behalf of Freddie Mac as a "nominal" defendant, on February 26, 2014. The complaint alleges, among other items, that the net worth sweep dividend provisions of the senior preferred stock constitute an unlawful taking of private property for public use without just compensation. The plaintiffs ask that Freddie Mac be awarded just compensation for the U.S. government's alleged taking of its property, attorneys' fees, costs, and other expenses. On March 8, 2018, the plaintiffs filed an amended complaint under seal, with a redacted copy filed on November 14, 2018. The United States filed a motion to dismiss on August 1, 2018 and an amended motion to dismiss on October 1, 2018. The Court denied the United States' motion to dismiss on May 8, 2020 and granted plaintiffs' motion to certify the decisions for interlocutory appeal on June 11, 2020. The Federal Circuit denied the petition for interlocutory appeal on August 21, 2020. These proceedings are stayed pending final resolution of the Fairholme Funds appeals discussed below.
Fairholme Funds, Inc., et al. vs. the United States of America, Federal National Mortgage Association, and Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation. This case was originally filed on July 9, 2013 against the United States of America. On March 8, 2018, plaintiffs filed an amended complaint under seal. A redacted public version was filed on May 11, 2018 and adds Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae as nominal defendants. The amended complaint alleges, among other items, that the net worth sweep dividend provisions of the senior preferred stock constitute an unlawful taking or exaction of private property for public use without just compensation, and that by enacting the net worth sweep, the government breached the fiduciary duty it owed to Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae, and implied-in-fact contracts between the United States on the one hand and Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae on the other. The plaintiffs ask that plaintiffs, Freddie Mac, and Fannie Mae be awarded (1) just compensation for the government's alleged taking or exaction of their property, (2) damages for the government's breach of fiduciary duties, and (3) damages for the government's breach of the alleged implied-in-fact contracts. In addition, plaintiffs seek pre- and post-judgment interest, attorneys' fees, costs, and other expenses. The United States filed a motion to dismiss on August 1, 2018 and an amended motion to dismiss on October 1, 2018. On December 6, 2019, the Court dismissed the claims plaintiffs labeled as direct claims and denied defendant's motion to dismiss with respect to the claims plaintiffs labeled as derivative. Accordingly, derivative takings, exaction, breach of fiduciary duty, and breach of implied-in-fact contract claims remained. By order dated March 9, 2020, the Court granted unopposed motions by plaintiffs and defendant to certify the December 6 opinion for interlocutory review, modified its December 6 opinion to include the language necessary for an interlocutory appeal to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit, and stayed further proceedings in the case pending the completion of the interlocutory appeal process. The Federal Circuit granted the petition for interlocutory appeal and, on February 22, 2022, held that all of the plaintiffs' claims should be dismissed.
Perry Capital LLC vs. the United States of America, Federal National Mortgage Association, and Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation. This case was filed as a derivative lawsuit, purportedly on behalf of Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae as "nominal" defendants, on August 15, 2018. The complaint alleges, among other items, that the net worth sweep dividend provisions of the senior preferred stock constitute an unlawful taking of private property for public use without just compensation or an illegal exaction in violation of the Fifth Amendment, and that by enacting the net worth sweep, the government breached the fiduciary duty it owed to Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae, and implied-in-fact contracts between the United States on the one hand and Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae on the other. The plaintiff asks that it, Freddie Mac, and Fannie Mae be awarded just compensation for the government's alleged taking of their property or damages for the illegal exaction; damages for the government's breach of fiduciary duties; and damages for the government's breach of the alleged implied-in-fact contracts. These proceedings are stayed pending final resolution of the Fairholme Funds appeals discussed in the paragraph immediately above.
At present, it is not possible for us to predict the probable outcome of the lawsuits discussed above in the U.S. District Courts and the U.S. Court of Federal Claims (including the resolution of any appeals) or any potential effect on our business, financial condition, liquidity, or results of operations. In addition, we are unable to reasonably estimate the possible loss or range of possible loss in the event of an adverse judgment in the foregoing matters due to a number of factors, including the inherent uncertainty of pre-trial litigation. In addition, with respect to the In re Fannie Mae/Freddie Mac Senior Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement Class Action Litigations case, the plaintiffs have not demanded a stated amount of damages they believe are due.

NOTE 15
Regulatory Capital
ERCF
The GSE Act specifies certain capital requirements for us and authorizes FHFA to establish other capital requirements as well as to increase our minimum capital levels or to establish additional capital and reserve requirements for particular purposes. In October 2008, FHFA suspended capital classification of us during conservatorship, in light of the Purchase Agreement. In 1Q 2022, FHFA rescinded its prior instruction that we continue to provide quarterly submissions to FHFA on minimum capital.
FHFA has established the ERCF as a new enterprise regulatory capital framework for Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae. Our current capital levels are significantly below the levels that would be required under the ERCF. The ERCF has a transition period for compliance, and we are not required to comply with the regulatory capital requirements or the buffer requirements while in conservatorship. In general, the compliance date for the regulatory capital requirements will be the later of the date of termination of our conservatorship and any later compliance date provided in a transition order, and the compliance date for buffer requirements in the ERCF will be the date of termination of our conservatorship. Pursuant to the final rule, we are required to comply with the regulatory capital reporting requirements under the ERCF in 2022, with our initial quarterly capital report due by May 30, 2022.
The ERCF establishes risk-based and leverage capital requirements and includes supplemental capital requirements relating to the amount and form of the capital we hold, based largely on definitions of capital used in U.S. banking regulators' regulatory capital framework. The ERCF capital requirements contain both statutory capital elements (total capital and core capital) and regulatory capital elements (CET1 capital, Tier 1 capital, and adjusted total capital). The ERCF also includes a requirement that we hold prescribed capital buffers that can be drawn down in periods of financial stress and then rebuilt over time as economic conditions improve. If we fall below the prescribed buffer amounts, we must restrict capital distributions such as stock repurchases and dividends, as well as discretionary bonus payments to executives, until the buffer amounts are restored.
Risk-Based Capital Requirements
Under the ERCF risk-based capital requirements, we must maintain our CET1 capital, Tier 1 capital, and adjusted total capital ratios equal to at least 4.5%, 6%, and 8%, respectively, of risk-weighted assets. We must also maintain statutory total capital equal to at least 8% of risk-weighted assets. To avoid limits on capital distributions and discretionary bonus payments, we also must maintain CET1 capital that exceeds the risk-based capital requirements by at least the amount of the prescribed capital conservation buffer amount (PCCBA).
Leverage Capital Requirements
Under the ERCF leverage capital requirements, we must maintain our Tier 1 capital ratio equal to at least 2.5% of adjusted total assets. We must also maintain our statutory core capital ratio equal to at least 2.5% of adjusted total assets. To avoid limits on capital distributions and discretionary bonus payments, we also must maintain our Tier 1 capital that exceeds the leverage capital requirements by at least the amount of the prescribed leverage buffer amount (PLBA).

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
We are involved as a party to a variety of legal proceedings. For more information, see Note 14.
In addition, a number of lawsuits have been filed against the U.S. government related to the conservatorship and the Purchase Agreement. Some of these cases also have challenged the constitutionality of the structure of FHFA. For information on these lawsuits, see the Legal Proceedings section in our 2021 Annual Report. Freddie Mac is not a party to any of these lawsuits.
RISK FACTORS
This Form 10-Q should be read together with the Risk Factors section in our 2021 Annual Report, which describe various risks and uncertainties to which we are or may become subject. These risks and uncertainties could, directly or indirectly, adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, strategies, and/or prospects.
UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS
Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities
The securities we issue are "exempted securities" under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. As a result, we do not file registration statements with the SEC with respect to offerings of our securities.
Following our entry into conservatorship, we suspended the operation of, and ceased making grants under, equity compensation plans. Previously, we had provided equity compensation under those plans to employees and members of the Board of Directors. Under the Purchase Agreement, we cannot issue any new options, rights to purchase, participations, or other equity interests without Treasury's prior approval.
Information About Certain Securities Issuances by Freddie Mac
We make available, free of charge through our website at www.freddiemac.com, our annual reports on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, current reports on Form 8-K, and all other SEC reports and amendments to those reports as soon as reasonably practicable after we electronically file the material with the SEC. The SEC also maintains an internet site (www.sec.gov) that contains reports, proxy and information statements, and other information regarding companies that file electronically with the SEC.
We provide disclosure about our debt securities on our website at www.freddiemac.com/debt. From this address, investors can access the offering circular and related supplements for debt securities offerings under Freddie Mac's global debt facility, including pricing supplements for individual issuances of debt securities. Similar information about our STACR transactions and SCR debt notes is available at crt.freddiemac.com and mf.freddiemac.com/investors, respectively.
We provide disclosure about our mortgage-related securities, some of which are off-balance sheet obligations (e.g., K Certificates and SB Certificates), on our website at www.freddiemac.com/mbs and mf.freddiemac.com/investors. From these addresses, investors can access information and documents, including offering circulars and offering circular supplements, for mortgage-related securities offerings.
We provide additional information, including product descriptions, investor presentations, securities issuance calendars, transactions volumes and details, redemption notices, Freddie Mac research, and material developments or other events that may be important to investors, in each case as applicable, on the websites for our business activities, which can be found at sf.freddiemac.com, mf.freddiemac.com, and capitalmarkets.freddiemac.com/capital-markets.

Controls and Procedures

Controls and Procedures
EVALUATION OF DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that the information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified by the SEC's rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management of the company, including the company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing our disclosure controls and procedures, we recognize that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and we must apply judgment in implementing possible controls and procedures.
Management, including the company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2022. As a result of management's evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of March 31, 2022, at a reasonable level of assurance, because we have not been able to update our disclosure controls and procedures to provide reasonable assurance that information known by FHFA on an ongoing basis is communicated from FHFA to Freddie Mac's management in a manner that allows for timely decisions regarding our required disclosure under the federal securities laws. We consider this situation to be a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting.
CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING DURING 1Q 2022
We evaluated the changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during 1Q 2022 and concluded that there were no changes that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

As described above under Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures, we have one material weakness in internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2022 that we have not remediated.
Given the structural nature of this material weakness, we believe it is likely that we will not remediate it while we are under conservatorship. However, both we and FHFA have continued to engage in activities and employ procedures and practices intended to permit accumulation and communication to management of information needed to meet our disclosure obligations under the federal securities laws. These include the following:
n    FHFA has established the Division of Conservatorship Oversight and Readiness, which is intended to facilitate operation of the company with the oversight of the Conservator.
n    We provide drafts of our SEC filings to FHFA personnel for their review and comment prior to filing. We also provide drafts of certain external press releases and statements to FHFA personnel for their review and comment prior to release.
n    FHFA personnel, including senior officials, review our SEC filings prior to filing, including this Form 10-Q, and engage in discussions with us regarding issues associated with the information contained in those filings. Prior to filing this Form 10-Q, FHFA provided us with a written acknowledgment that it had reviewed the Form 10-Q, was not aware of any material misstatements or omissions in the Form 10-Q, and had no objection to our filing the Form 10-Q.
n    The Director of FHFA is in frequent communication with our Chief Executive Officer, typically meeting (in person or by phone) on at least a bi-weekly basis.
n    FHFA representatives attend meetings frequently with various groups within the company to enhance the flow of information and to provide oversight on a variety of matters, including accounting, credit and capital markets management, external communications, and legal matters.
n    Senior officials within FHFA's accounting group meet frequently with our senior financial executives regarding our accounting policies, practices, and procedures.
In view of our mitigating actions related to this material weakness, we believe that our condensed consolidated financial statements for 1Q 2022 have been prepared in conformity with GAAP.
