MEMORANDUM **
Neko Kimon Defterios appeals the sentence imposed by the district court after he pleaded guilty to one count of making a false statement to a federally insured lending institution in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 1014 . We have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1291 , and we affirm.
*716 Defterios challenges the district court’s finding of the amount of loss. He contends the district court failed to rule on his objections to the probation officer’s calculation of the amount of loss in the presentence report, as required by Federal Rule of Criminal Procedure 32(c). We disagree. The transcript of the sentencing hearing reflects that the district court understood, considered, and ruled upon Defterios’s objections. See United States v. Karterman, 60 F.3d 576, 583 (9th Cir.1995) (finding Rule 32(c) to be satisfied when the district court’s statements during the sentencing hearing and in written findings demonstrated that the court considered the defendant’s objections and resolved the disputed facts against him). The district court’s finding as to the amount of loss was not clearly erroneous.
