Our portfolio of securities available for sale is reviewed quarterly for impairment in value. In performing this review management considers (1) the length of time and extent that fair value has been less than cost, (2) the financial condition and near term prospects of the issuer, (3) the impact of changes in market interest rates on the market value of the security and (4) an assessment of whether we intend to sell, or it is more likely than not that we will be required to sell, a security in an unrealized loss position before recovery of its amortized cost basis. For securities that do not meet the aforementioned recovery criteria, the amount of impairment recognized in earnings is limited to the amount related to credit losses, while impairment related to other factors is recognized in other comprehensive income.

U.S. agency and U.S. agency residential mortgage-backed securities — at June 30, 2020, we had 29 U.S. agency and 38 U.S. agency residential mortgage-backed securities whose fair value is less than amortized cost. The unrealized losses are largely attributed to widening spreads to Treasury bonds since acquisition.

Private label mortgage backed, other asset backed and corporate securities — at June 30, 2020, we had 23 private label mortgage backed, 66 other asset backed and 10 corporate securities whose fair value is less than amortized cost. The unrealized losses are primarily due to credit spread widening since acquisition.

Two private label mortgage-backed securities (discussed further below) were reviewed for other than temporary impairment (‘‘OTTI’’) utilizing a cash flow projection. The cash flow analysis forecasts cash flow from the underlying loans in each transaction and then applies these cash flows to the bonds in the securitization.

Obligations of states and political subdivisions — at June 30, 2020, we had 15 municipal securities whose fair value is less than amortized cost. The unrealized losses are primarily due to wider benchmark pricing spreads since acquisition.

Trust preferred securities — at June 30, 2020, we had two trust preferred securities whose fair value is less than amortized cost. Both of our trust preferred securities are single issue securities issued by a trust subsidiary of a bank holding company. The pricing of trust preferred securities has suffered from credit spread widening. One of the securities is rated by a major rating agency as investment grade while the other one is non-rated. The non-rated issue is a relatively small bank and was never rated. The issuer of this non-rated trust preferred security, which had a total amortized cost of $1.0 million and total fair value of $0.80 million as of June 30, 2020, continues to have satisfactory credit metrics and make interest payments.

As management does not intend to liquidate any of the securities discussed above and it is more likely than not that we will not be required to sell these securities prior to recovery of these unrealized losses, no declines discussed above (other than certain declines related to the two private label mortgage-backed securities currently being reviewed for OTTI) are deemed to be other than temporary.

We recorded no credit related OTTI charges in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations related to securities available for sale during the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

At June 30, 2020, two private label mortgage-backed securities had credit related OTTI and are summarized as follows:

	Senior Security		Super Senior Security		Total
	(In thousands)

Fair value	$	468	$	542	$	1,010
Amortized cost		445		395		840
Non-credit unrealized loss		-		-		-
Unrealized gain		23		147		170
Cumulative credit related OTTI		757		457		1,214

Both of these securities are receiving principal and interest payments similar to principal reductions in the underlying collateral and have unrealized gains at June 30, 2020. The original amortized cost (current amortized cost excluding cumulative credit related OTTI) for each of these securities has been permanently adjusted downward for previously recorded credit related OTTI. The unrealized loss (based on original amortized cost) for both of these securities is now less than previously recorded credit related OTTI amounts.

A roll forward of credit losses recognized in earnings on securities available for sale follows:

	Three months ended June 30,				Six months ended June 30,
	2020		2019		2020		2019
	(In thousands)				(In thousands)
Balance at beginning of period	$	1,214	$	1,594	$	1,214	$	1,594

Increases to credit losses on securities for which OTTI was previously recognized		-		-		-		-

The amortized cost and fair value of securities available for sale at June 30, 2020, by contractual maturity, follow:

The actual maturity may differ from the contractual maturity because issuers may have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties.

Gains and losses realized on the sale of securities available for sale are determined using the specific identification method and are recognized on a trade-date basis. A summary of proceeds from the sale of securities available for sale and gains and losses for the six month periods ending June 30, follows:

			Realized
	Proceeds		Gains		Losses
	(In thousands)
2020	$	36,593	$	253	$	-
2019		42,236		169		32

Certain preferred stocks which were all sold during the first quarter of 2019 had been classified as equity securities at fair value in our Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition. During the six months ended June 30, 2019 we recognized gains on these preferred stocks of $0.167 million that are included in net gains on securities in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
