As of June 30, 2024, there were 58 investments available for sale totaling $54.3 million that were in a loss position and had an unrealized loss of $8.1 million.

All of the unrealized losses are attributable to increases in interest rates and not to credit deterioration. Currently, the Company believes that it is probable that the Company will be able to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the investments. Because the declines in fair value are attributable to changes in interest rates and not to credit quality, and because it is not more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the investments before recovery of their amortized cost bases, which may be maturity, the Company has not recorded an allowance for credit losses on these investments at June 30, 2024.

The amortized cost and estimated fair value of investment securities available for sale as of June 30, 2024, by contractual maturity, are as follows (in thousands):
