Investment Securities
At March 31, 2016, the Company had $984.2 million and $472.9 million in available for sale and held to maturity investment securities, respectively. Many factors, including lack of liquidity in the secondary market for certain securities, variations in pricing information, regulatory actions, changes in the business environment or any changes in the competitive marketplace could have an adverse effect on the Company’s investment portfolio which could result in other-than-temporary impairment ("OTTI") on certain investment securities in future periods. The total number of held to maturity and available for sale securities in an unrealized loss position as of March 31, 2016 totaled 53, compared with 163 at December 31, 2015. All securities with unrealized losses at March 31, 2016 were analyzed for other-than-temporary impairment. Based upon this analysis, the Company believes that as of March 31, 2016, such securities with unrealized losses do not represent impairments that are other-than-temporary.

Mortgage-backed securities totaling $868.9 million at amortized cost and $886.6 million at fair value are excluded from the table above as their expected lives are likely to be shorter than the contractual maturity date due to principal prepayments. Also excluded from the table above are equity securities of $397,000 at amortized cost and $521,000 at fair value.
For the three months ended March 31, 2016, proceeds from sales on securities available for sale totaled $2,106,000 resulting in gross gains of $95,000 and no gross losses. For the same period last year, there were no sales of securities from the available for sale portfolio. For the three months ended March 31, 2016, there were no calls of securities from the available for sale portfolio. For the three months ended March 31, 2015, proceeds from calls on securities available for sale totaled $465,000, resulting in gross gains of $2,000 and no gross losses.
The Company did not incur an OTTI charge on securities in the available for sale portfolio for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015.

The temporary loss position associated with certain securities available for sale was the result of changes in market interest rates relative to the coupon of the individual security and changes in credit spreads. The Company does not have the intent to sell securities in a temporary loss position at March 31, 2016, nor is it more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the securities before their prices recover.
The number of available for sale securities in an unrealized loss position at March 31, 2016 totaled 15, compared with 64 at December 31, 2015. At March 31, 2016, there were three private label mortgage-backed securities in an unrealized loss position, with an amortized cost of $690,000 and an unrealized loss of $5,000. These private label mortgage-backed securities were investment grade at March 31, 2016.
The Company estimates the loss projections for each security by stressing the individual loans collateralizing the security and applying a range of expected default rates, loss severities, and prepayment speeds in conjunction with the underlying credit enhancement for each security. Based on specific assumptions about collateral and vintage, a range of possible cash flows was identified to determine whether other-than-temporary impairment existed during the three months ended March 31, 2016. The Company believes that no other-than-temporary impairment of the securities available for sale portfolio existed for the three months ended March 31, 2016.

Based upon the review of the held to maturity securities portfolio, the Company believes that as of March 31, 2016, securities with unrealized loss positions shown above do not represent impairments that are other-than-temporary. The review of the portfolio for other-than-temporary impairment considers the percentage and length of time the fair value of an investment is below book value, as well as general market conditions, changes in interest rates, credit risks, whether the Company has the intent to sell the securities and whether it is more likely than not that the Company would be required to sell the securities before their prices recover.
The number of held to maturity securities in an unrealized loss position at March 31, 2016 totaled 38, compared with 99 at December 31, 2015. The decrease in the number of securities in an unrealized loss position at March 31, 2016, was largely due to an increase in market interest rates from December 31, 2015. All temporarily impaired investment securities were investment grade at March 31, 2016.
