Navient to Acquire Earnest
Forward-Looking Statements.
The following information is current as of June 30, 2017 (unless otherwise noted) and should be read in connection with Navient Corporation's (Navient) Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31,
2016 (the "2016 Form 10-K"), filed by Navient with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on February 24, 2017 and subsequent reports filed by Navient with the SEC. Definitions for capitalized terms in
this presentation not defined herein can be found in our 2016 Form 10-K. This presentation contains "forward-looking" statements and other information that is based on management's current expectations as of the
date of this presentation. Statements that are not historical facts, including statements about our beliefs, opinions, or expectations and statements that assume or are dependent upon future events, are forward-
looking statements and often contain words such as "expect," "anticipate," "intend," "plan," "believe," "seek," "see," "will," "would," or "target." Forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties,
assumptions and other factors that may cause actual results to be materially different from those reflected in such forward-looking statements.
For us, these factors include, among others, the risks and uncertainties associated with:
• increases in financing costs;
• the availability of financing or limits on liquidity resulting from disruptions in the capital markets or other factors;
• unanticipated increases in costs associated with compliance with federal, state or local laws and regulations;
• changes in the marketplaces in which we compete (including changes in demand or changes resulting from new laws and regulations);
• changes in accounting standards including but not limited to changes pertaining to loan loss reserves and estimates or other accounting standards that may impact our operations;
• adverse outcomes in any significant litigation to which we are a party;
• credit risk associated with our exposure to third parties, including counterparties to hedging or other derivative transactions; and
• changes in the terms of education loans and the educational credit marketplace (including changes resulting from new laws and the implementation of existing laws).
We could also be affected by, among other things:
• unanticipated deferrals in our FFELP securitization trusts that would delay repayment of the bonds beyond their legal final maturity date;
• reductions to our credit ratings, the credit ratings of asset-backed securitizations we sponsor or the credit ratings of the United States of America;
• failure of our operating systems or infrastructure, or those of third-party vendors;
• risks related to cybersecurity including the potential disruption of our systems or potential disclosure of confidential customer information;
• damage to our reputation resulting from cyber-breaches, litigation, the politicization of student loan servicing or other actions or factors;
• failure to successfully implement cost-cutting initiatives and adverse effects of such initiatives on our business;
• failure to adequately integrate acquisitions or realize anticipated benefits from acquisitions including delays or errors in converting portfolio acquisitions to our servicing platform;
• changes in law and regulations including but not limited to changes with respect to the student lending or servicing business and financial institutions generally, securitizations or derivatives;
• increased competition from banks and other consumer lenders;
• the creditworthiness of our customers;
• changes in the general interest rate environment, including the relationship between the relevant money-market index rate and the rate at which our assets are priced;
• our ability to successfully effectuate any acquisitions and other strategic initiatives;
• changes in the demand for asset management and business processing services;
• changes in general economic conditions; and
• the other factors that are described in the "Risk Factors" section of the 2016 Form 10-K and in our other reports filed with the SEC.
The preparation of our consolidated financial statements also requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions including estimates and assumptions about future events. These estimates or
assumptions may prove to be incorrect and actual results could differ materially. All forward-looking statements contained in this presentation are qualified by these cautionary statements and are made only as of the
date of this presentation. We do not undertake any obligation to update or revise these forward-looking statements except as required by law.
Navient reports financial results on a GAAP basis and also provides certain non-GAAP "core earnings" performance measures. When compared to GAAP results, "core earnings" exclude the impact of: (1) unrealized,
mark-to-market gains/losses on derivatives; and (2) goodwill and acquired intangible asset amortization and impairment. Navient provides core earnings measures because this is what management uses when
making management decisions regarding Navient's performance and the allocation of corporate resources. Navient core earnings are not defined terms within GAAP and may not be comparable to similarly titled
measures reported by other companies. For additional information, see "Core Earnings Definition and Limitations" in Navient's second quarter earnings release for a further discussion and a complete
reconciliation between GAAP net income and core earnings.
