Management has the ability and intent to hold securities classified as held to maturity until they mature, at which time the Company should receive full value for the securities. As of

December 31, 2018,

management did

not

have the intent to sell any of the securities before a recovery of cost. The unrealized losses are due to increases in market interest rates over the yields available at the time the underlying securities were purchased as well as other market conditions for each particular security based upon the structure and remaining principal balance. The fair values of the investment securities are expected to recover as the securities approach their maturity dates or repricing dates or if market yields for such investments decline. Based on the these factors, as of

December 31, 2018,

management believes the unrealized losses detailed in the table above are temporary and, accordingly,

none

of these unrealized losses have been recognized in the Company’s consolidated statement of income.
