At March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we serviced loans sold to unaffiliated parties of $525.5 million and $523.6 million, respectively. These represented loans that were sold for which the Bank continues to provide servicing. These loans are maintained off-balance sheet and are not included in the loans receivable balance. All of the loans serviced were SBA loans.

The Company recorded servicing fee income of $1.3 million and $1.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Servicing fee income, net of the amortization of servicing assets, is included in other operating income in the consolidated statements of income. Amortization expense was $0.6 million and $0.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

The fair value of servicing rights was $8.6 million at March 31, 2023 and was determined using discount rates ranging from 12.0% to 13.9% and prepayment speeds ranging from 10.9% to 17.2%, depending on the stratification of the specific right. The fair value of servicing rights was $7.1 million at December 31, 2022 and was determined using discount rates ranging from 21.9% to 25.3% and prepayment speeds ranging from 10.8% to 16.7%, depending on the stratification of the specific right.
