3. INVESTMENTS

The Company owned certificates of deposit insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) with an amortized cost of $1,250,000 and $1,200,000 as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The certificates of deposit included in short-term and fixed maturities investments are classified as available-for-sale and are carried at fair value. The Company also invests in money market funds included in short-term investments and are classified as available-for-sale, with a cost and fair value of approximately $60,000 and $93,000 as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The Company invests in investment grade corporate bonds with an amortized cost of approximately $5,936,000 and $2,871,000 as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The investment grade corporate bonds included in fixed maturity investments are classified as available-for-sale and are carried at fair value.

At December 31, 2013, the Company has one-hundred and eight investment grade corporate bonds, which consist of eighty-nine different securities each with a credit rating of A- or better and nineteen securities that had a credit rating of between BBB- and BBB+. The weighted average yield-to-book value of our investment grade corporate bonds was approximately 2.94% at December 31, 2013. The weighted average maturity of our investment grade corporate bonds was 5.68 years at December 31, 2013. The unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale investments are due to a change in fair value for these investments caused primarily by changes in prevailing interest rates since they were purchased. There were no material realized gains or losses for the year ended December 31, 2013. There was approximately $40,000 of realized gains related to investments for the year ended December 31, 2012.

At December 31, 2013 and, 2012, maturity dates for fixed maturities and short-term investments (excluding the money market funds) were:

Unrealized losses at December 31, 2013 and 2012 on investments were generally due to higher current market yields relative to the yields of the investments at their amortized cost. Unrealized losses due to credit risk associated with the underlying collateral of the investments, if any, are not material. All investments with unrealized losses are reviewed quarterly to determine if any impairment is other than temporary, requiring a charge to earnings. The Company considers the severity of the loss on a security, duration of loss, duration of the investment, credit rating of the security, as well as payment performance and the Company’s intent or requirement to sell the investment before recovery when determining whether any impairment is other than temporary. The Company had no other than temporary impairment charges for the years ended December 2013, 2012 and 2011. The Company had no investments in a material unrealized loss position for greater than one year as of December 31, 2013 and 2012.
