Securities with a carrying amount of $358,000 were sold in the three months ended March 31, 2019. No securities were sold in the three months ended March 31, 2020. At March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, securities with a carrying amount of $51.5 million and $50.8 million, respectively, were pledged to secure public deposits, repurchase agreements and for other purposes required or permitted by law.

The Company held 3 securities at March 31, 2020 and 27 securities at December 31, 2019, respectively, that were in a gross unrealized loss position. Total gross unrealized losses at March 31, 2020 was below $1,000. The unrealized losses are attributable primarily to changes in market interest rates relative to those available when the securities were acquired. There are multiple qualitative factors considered by the Company in its assessment to determine if an ACL was necessary for those securities where the amortized cost basis exceeds the fair value. These factors include, among other things, (i) the extent to which the fair value was less than the amortized cost basis of the security and the length of time; (ii) the structure of the payments and likelihood that the issuer has the ability to make future payments; (iii) adverse conditions related to the security, industry or geographic area; (iv) changes in any credit ratings or financial conditions of the issuer; (v) failure by the issuer to make previous payments; and (vi) past events related to the security, current economic conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Management did not believe that any of the securities the Company held were impaired due to reasons of credit quality and believed the unrealized losses detailed in the tables below were temporary. No ACL for available for sale securities has been recorded in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets at March 31, 2020 and upon adoption of ASU 2016-03.

Amortized costs, as defined by GAAP, includes acquisition costs, applicable accrued interest and accretion or amortization of premiums and discounts. The Company made a policy election to exclude accrued interest from amortized costs in the determination of ACL. The Company continues its policy of reversing previously accrued interest when it has been deemed uncollectible.

Accrued interest receivable for securities was $674,000 and $1.1 million at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively, and is included in other assets in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Securities with unrealized losses as of the dates shown below, aggregated by category and the length of time were as follows:
