The amortized cost and fair value of securities at September 30, 2022 are presented below by contractual maturity (dollars in thousands). Expected maturities may differ from contractual maturities because issuers may have the right to call or prepay obligations. Other securities are shown separately since they are not due at a single maturity date.

There were 174 securities with an unrealized loss at September 30, 2022, generally due to increases in market rates. Management does not believe that these losses are other than temporary as there is no intent to sell any of these securities before recovery and it is not probable the Company will be required to sell any of these securities before recovery, and credit loss, if any, is not material. These unrealized losses are largely due to significant increases in market interest rates experienced during the first nine months of 2022 over the yields available at the time the underlying securities were purchased, which was attributed to the Federal Open Market Committee (“FOMC”) of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the “Federal Reserve”) repeatedly raising their target benchmark interest rate in the first nine months of 2022, resulting in subsequent prime rate increases of 300 basis points between March and September of 2022. The fair value is expected to recover as the securities approach their maturity date or if market yields for such investments decline in future periods. Management does not believe any of the securities are impaired due to reasons of credit quality. Accordingly, as of September 30, 2022, management believes the impairments detailed in the table above are temporary and no impairment loss has been realized in the Company’s combined financial statements.
