⁽¹⁾ Aggregate unrealized loss position of these securities is less than $500.

The Company conducts a formal review of investment securities on a quarterly basis for the presence of other-than-temporary impairment (“OTTI”). The Company assesses whether OTTI is present when the fair value of a debt security is less than its amortized cost basis at the statement of condition date. Under these circumstances, OTTI is considered to have occurred (1) if we intend to sell the security; (2) if it is “more likely than not” we will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis; or (3) the present value of expected cash flows is not anticipated to be sufficient to recover the entire amortized cost basis. The guidance requires that credit-related OTTI is recognized in earnings while non-credit-related OTTI on securities not expected to be sold is recognized in other comprehensive income (“OCI”). Non-credit-related OTTI is based on other factors, including illiquidity and changes in the general interest rate environment. Presentation of OTTI is made in the consolidated statement of income on a gross basis, including both the portion recognized in earnings as well as the portion recorded in OCI. The gross OTTI would then be offset by the amount of non-credit-related OTTI, showing the net as the impact on earnings.

There were 26 securities in an unrealized loss position at March 31, 2017, of which three have been in loss positions for a period greater than twelve months and 23 have been in loss positions for a period less than twelve months. This compares to 27 securities in an unrealized loss position at December 31, 2016, of which three had been in loss positions for a period greater than twelve months and 24 had been in loss positions for a period less than twelve months. These issuing entities are currently rated Aaa by Moody’s Investor Services and AA+ by Standard and Poors. Among the three securities in loss positions for a period greater than twelve months at March 31, 2017, two were mortgage-backed securities issued by GNMA and guaranteed by the United States Government. The remaining security that has been in a loss position for a period greater than twelve months was issued by a state subdivision. The unrealized losses reflected are primarily attributable to changes in interest rates since the securities were acquired.

Among the 23 securities in an unrealized loss position at March 31, 2017 for less than twelve months, 11 were either direct issuances of, or mortgage-backed securities or collateralized mortgage obligations issued by, the following entities sponsored and guaranteed by the United States Government: FNMA, FHLMC, FHLB and FFCB. The remaining 12 securities were issued by a state or political subdivision. The unrealized losses reflected are primarily attributable to changes in interest rates since the securities were acquired. The Company does not intend to sell these securities, nor is it more likely than not, that the Company will be required to sell these securities prior to recovery of the amortized cost. As such, management does not believe any individual unrealized loss as of March 31, 2017 represents OTTI.

There were no gross realized gains on sales of securities for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and March 31, 2016.

As of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, no securities were pledged to secure public deposits or for any other purpose required or permitted by law.

Management has reviewed its loan and mortgage-backed securities portfolios and determined that, to the best of its knowledge, little or no exposure exists to sub-prime or other high-risk residential mortgages. The Company is not in the practice of investing in, or originating, these types of investments or loans.
