The gross unrealized losses reported for residential mortgage-backed securities relate to investment securities issued by U.S. government sponsored entities such as Federal National Mortgage Association and Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation, and U.S. government agencies such as Government National Mortgage Association. The total gross unrealized losses, shown in the tables above, were primarily attributable to changes in interest rates and levels of market liquidity, relative to when the investment securities were purchased, and not due to the credit quality of the investment securities.
 
For available-for-sale debt securities in an unrealized loss position, the Company evaluates the securities to determine whether the decline in the fair value below the amortized cost basis (technical impairment) is the result of changes in interest rates or reflects a fundamental change in the credit worthiness of the underlying issuer. Any impairment that is not credit related is recognized in other comprehensive income, net of applicable taxes. Credit-related impairment is recognized as an ACL on the Statements of Condition, limited to the amount by which the amortized cost basis exceeds the fair value, with a corresponding adjustment to earnings. Both the ACL and the adjustment to net income may be reversed if conditions change.
 
However, if the Company intends to sell an impaired available for sale debt security, or more likely than not be required to sell the debt security before the recovery of the amortized cost basis, the entire impairment amount, including any previously
recognized ACL, must be recognized in earnings with a corresponding adjustment to the security’s amortized cost basis. Because the security’s amortized cost basis is adjusted to fair value, there is no ACL.

The Company did not recognize any net credit impairment charge to earnings on investment securities in 2020, 2019, or 2018.
 
The amortized cost and estimated fair value of debt securities by contractual maturity are shown in the following table. Expected maturities may differ from contractual maturities because issuers may have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties. Mortgage-backed securities are shown separately since they are not due at a single maturity date.

Pledged Securities 
The Company pledges securities as collateral for public deposits and other borrowings, and sells securities under agreements to repurchase. See “Note 8 - Securities Sold Under Agreements to Repurchase and Federal Funds Purchased” for further discussion. Securities carried of $1.2 billion and $1.0 billion, at December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively, were either pledged or sold under agreements to repurchase.
 
Concentrations of Securities 
Except for U.S. government securities, there were no holdings, when taken in the aggregate, of any single issuer that exceeded 10% of shareholders’ equity at December 31, 2020.

Investment in Small Business Investment Companies 
The Company has equity investments in small business investment companies (“SBIC”) established for the purpose of providing financing to small businesses in market areas served by the Company. These investments totaled $1.5 million at both December 31, 2020 and 2019, and were included in other assets on the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Condition. These investments are accounted for either under the cost method or the equity method of accounting. As of December 31, 2020, the Company reviewed these investments and determined that there was no impairment.
 
Federal Home Loan Bank Stock 
The Company also holds non-marketable Federal Home Loan Bank New York (“FHLBNY”) stock, non-marketable Federal Home Loan Bank Pittsburgh (“FHLBPITT”) stock and non-marketable Atlantic Community Bankers Bank (“ACBB”) stock, all of which are required to be held for regulatory purposes and for borrowing availability. The required investment in FHLB stock is tied to the Company’s borrowing levels with the FHLB. Holdings of FHLBNY stock, FHLBPITT stock and ACBB stock totaled $11.0 million, $5.2 million and $95,000 at December 31, 2020, respectively. These securities are carried at par, which is also cost. The FHLBNY and FHLBPITT continue to pay dividends and repurchase stock. As such, the Company has not recognized any impairment on its holdings of FHLBNY and FHLBPITT stock.
