The Company did not transfer any investment securities that were classified as AFS to HTM during the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024.

In 2022, the Company transferred 81 investment securities that were classified as AFS to HTM. The investment securities had an amortized cost basis of $762.7 million and a fair market value of $673.2 million. On the date of transfers, these securities had a total net unrealized loss of $89.5 million. There was no impact to net income as a result of the reclassifications.

During the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company recorded a total of $6.8 million and $7.2 million, respectively, in amortization of unrecognized losses on the aforementioned investment securities transferred from AFS to HTM.

These transfers were executed to mitigate the potential future impact to capital through accumulated other comprehensive loss in consideration of a rising interest rate environment and the impact of rising rates on the market value of the investment securities. The Company believes that it maintains sufficient liquidity for future business needs and it has the positive intent and ability to hold these securities to maturity.
The amortized cost, estimated fair value, and weighted average yield of the Company's AFS and HTM investment securities at December 31, 2025, are presented below, grouped by contractual maturity. Actual maturities may differ from contractual maturities due to the issuer's option to call or prepay obligations, with or without penalties. Securities that are not due at a single maturity date, such as mortgage-backed securities and other asset-backed investments, are presented separately:

In November 2024, the Company executed an investment portfolio repositioning of its AFS investment securities portfolio. The Company sold 24 lower-yielding AFS investment securities with a book value of $106.5 million and received proceeds of $96.6 million, which resulted in gross realized losses of $9.9 million.

In December 2023, the Company executed an investment portfolio repositioning of its AFS investment securities portfolio. The Company sold 17 AFS investment securities with a book value of $30.0 million and received proceeds of $28.1 million, which resulted in gross realized losses of $1.9 million. No gross gains were realized on the sale. With the proceeds, the Company purchased higher yielding and shorter duration AFS investment securities totaling $28.3 million.

In September 2023, the Company sold two AFS commercial mortgage-backed securities issued by non-government agencies and received proceeds of $1.4 million. The investment securities had a cost basis of $1.5 million and were sold at a gross loss of $0.1 million.

Investment securities of $736.7 million and $756.0 million at December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, were pledged to secure public funds on deposit and other long-term and short-term borrowings.

There were a total of 179 and 218 AFS securities in an unrealized loss position at December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. There were a total of 81 and 83 HTM securities in an unrecognized loss position at December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

The following table summarizes AFS and HTM securities which were in an unrealized or unrecognized loss position at December 31, 2025 and 2024, aggregated by major security type and length of time in a continuous unrealized or unrecognized loss position:

Investment securities in an unrealized or unrecognized loss position are evaluated at least quarterly, to determine whether a credit loss exists. This evaluation includes a review of changes in the investment securities' credit ratings issued by major rating agencies and assessments of the issuers' financial condition. For mortgage-related securities, the Company also considers delinquency and loss data related to the underlying collateral, changes in subordination levels for the Company's position within the repayment structure, and remaining credit enhancement relative to projected credit losses.

The Company has reviewed its AFS and HTM investment securities that are in an unrealized or unrecognized loss position and determined that the losses are not related to credit quality, but are primarily attributable to changes in interest rates and volatility in the financial markets since the time of purchase. All of the investment securities in a loss position continue to be rated investment grade by one or more major rating agencies.

As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company did not intend to sell the AFS and HTM securities in a loss position and it is unlikely to be required to sell these securities before recovery of its amortized cost basis, which may occur at maturity. Accordingly, the Company has not recorded an ACL on these securities.
