Prosper's September Revenue

Following up on last month's post documenting how Prosper makes money, I plan to keep looking at their monthly income monthly to see how they're progressing as a business. Into this month's totals. First, origination income:

Credit Grade
Loans Originated
Borrower Fee
Income
AA
$782,614
1.0%
$7,826
A
$868,698

E
$273,831
2.0%$5,476
HR
$139,390
2.0%$2,787
Total


$58,463
And now loan servicing income:
Credit Grade
Outstanding Loans
Lender Fee

AA
$9,278,081

$3,865
A
$10,291,849

C

$12,177
D
$11,625,228

E
$5,979,788
1.0%$4,983
HR
$4,210,321
1.0%$3,508
Total


$46,317
The sum total is $107.6k for September, a 8.8% decrease over $118.0k in August. Comparing September to August shows a significant decline in new loans originated, with all credit grades showing a significant dollar declines except for B which was nominally flat (+.1%). September did only have 30 days instead of 31, which should account for about 3% of the loan origination decline, but overall this was not an impressive month.
