There were no unrealized losses on held-to-maturity securities at December 31, 2012.
 
 
 
The gross unrealized losses reported at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 for mortgage-backed securities-residential 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, and non-U.S. Government agencies or sponsored entities.  The total gross unrealized losses shown in the table above were primarily attributable to changes in interest rates and levels of market liquidity, relative to when the investment securities were purchased, and generally not due to the credit quality of the investment securities.
 
The Company does not intend to sell the securities that are in an unrealized loss position and it is not more-likely-than not that the Company will be required to sell these available-for-sale investment securities before recovery of their amortized cost basis, which may be at maturity.  Accordingly, as of June 30, 2013, and December 31, 2012, management believes the unrealized losses detailed in the tables above are not other-than-temporary.
 
Ongoing Assessment of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment
On a quarterly basis, the Company performs an assessment to determine whether there have been any events or economic circumstances indicating that a security with an unrealized loss has suffered other-than-temporary impairment.  A debt security is considered impaired if the fair value is less than its amortized cost basis at the reporting date.  If impaired, the Company then assesses whether the unrealized loss is other-than-temporary.  An unrealized loss on a debt security is generally deemed to be other-than-temporary and a credit loss is deemed to exist if the present value, discounted at the security’s effective rate, of the expected future cash flows is less than the amortized cost basis of the debt security.  As a result, the credit loss component of an other-than-temporary impairment write-down for debt securities is recorded in earnings while the remaining portion of the impairment loss is recognized, net of tax, in other comprehensive income provided that the Company does not intend to sell the underlying debt security and it is more-likely-than not that the Company would not have to sell the debt security prior to recovery of the unrealized loss, which may be to maturity.  If the Company intended to sell any securities with an unrealized loss or it is more-likely-than not that the Company would be required to sell the investment securities, before recovery of their amortized cost basis, then the entire unrealized loss would be recorded in earnings.
 
The Company considers the following factors in determining whether a credit loss exists and the period over which the debt security is expected to recover.
 
-
The length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than the amortized cost basis;
 
-
The level of credit enhancement provided by the structure which includes, but is not limited to, credit subordination positions, excess spreads, overcollateralization, and protective triggers;
 
-
Changes in the near term prospects of the issuer or underlying collateral of a security, such as changes in default rates, loss severities given default and significant changes in prepayment assumptions;
 
-
The level of excess cash flow generated from the underlying collateral supporting the principal and interest payments of the debt securities; and
 
-
Any adverse change to the credit conditions of the issuer or the security such as credit downgrades by the rating agencies.
 
As of June 30, 2013, the Company owned one corporate (non-agency) collateralized mortgage obligation issue (“CMO”) in a senior tranche of which the aggregate historical cost basis for this non-agency CMO was less than its estimated fair value.  At June 30, 2013, this non-agency CMO with an amortized cost basis of $385,000 was collateralized by residential real estate and is not currently deferring or in default of interest payments to the Company.  As of December 31, 2012, the Company owned 5 corporate, non-U.S. Government agency collateralized mortgage obligation issues (“CMO’s”) in super senior or senior tranches of which the aggregate historical cost basis for 3 of these non-agency CMO’s was greater than their estimated fair value.  At December 31, 2012, all 5 non-agency CMO’s with an amortized cost basis of $4.5 million were collateralized by residential real estate.  None of the 5 non-agency CMO’s whose aggregate historical cost basis was greater than their estimated fair value were deferring or were in default of interest payments to the Company.
 
During the first quarter of 2013, the Company sold three non-agency CMO securities for a gain of approximately $94,000.  Prior to the first quarter of 2013, these three non-agency CMO securities were determined to be other-than-temporarily impaired and the Company did recognize net credit impairment charges to earnings of $441,000 over the life of these three securities.  Also during the first quarter of 2013, one non-agency CMO security was repaid in full.  The Company did not recognize any net credit impairment charge to earnings on these securities in 2013.  The Company did recognize $65,000 in net credit impairment charges to earnings on these securities in the second quarter and six months ending June 30, 2012.

The Company also holds non-marketable Federal Home Loan Bank New York (“FHLBNY”) stock, non-marketable Federal Home Loan Bank Pittsburgh (“FHLBPITT”) stock, non-marketable Atlantic Central Bankers Bank  (“ACBB”) stock, and non-marketable Federal Reserve Bank (“FRB”) 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 each FHLB.  Holdings of FHLBNY stock, FHLBPITT stock, ACBB stock, and FRB stock totaled $16.6 million, $7.4 million, $95,000, and $2.1 million at June 30, 2013, respectively, and $13.2 million, $4.1 million, $95,000 and $2.1 million at December 31, 2012, 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.  Federal law requires a member institution of the Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) system to hold stock of its district FHLB according to a predetermined formula.  This stock is recorded at cost.  Quarterly, we evaluate our investment in the FHLB for impairment.  We evaluate recent and long-term operating performance, liquidity, funding and capital positions, stock repurchase history, dividend history and impact of legislative and regulatory changes.  Based on our most recent evaluation, we have determined that no impairment write-downs are currently required.
