Proceeds from sales of securities during the six month period ended June 30, 2016 were $12.1 million, with gross gains of $147,000 and gross losses of $11,000. No sales of securities were transacted during the six month period ended June 30, 2015.

In 2014, approximately $158.8 million of investment securities available for sale were transferred into held for investment. The unrealized holding losses at the date of transfer totaled $3.1 million. For the securities transferred into the held for investment category from available for sale, unrealized holding losses at the date of the transfer will continue to be reported in other comprehensive income, and will be amortized over the remaining life of these securities as an adjustment of yield in a manner consistent with the amortization of a discount. The amortization of unrealized holding losses reported in equity will offset the effect on interest income of the amortization of the discount. At June 30, 2016, the remaining unrealized holding losses totaled $2.1 million.

Securities at June 30, 2016 with a carrying and fair value of $169.6 million and $165.7 million, respectively, were pledged as collateral for United States Treasury deposits, other public deposits and trust deposits. Securities with both a carrying value and fair value of $183.4 million were pledged as collateral for repurchase agreements.

The amortized cost and fair value of securities at June 30, 2016, by contractual maturity, are shown below. Expected maturities will differ from contractual maturities because prepayments of the underlying collateral for these securities may occur, due to the right to call or repay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties.

The estimated fair value of a security is determined based on market quotations when available or, if not available, by using quoted market prices for similar securities, pricing models or discounted cash flows analyses, using observable market data where available. The tables below indicate the amount of securities with unrealized losses and period of time for which these losses were outstanding at June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively.

The tables above include securities held for investment that were transferred from available for sale into held for investment during 2014. Those securities had unrealized losses of $3.1 million at the date of transfer. None of these securities had a fair value with an unrealized loss for less than twelve months at June 30, 2016. At December 31, 2015, the fair value of those securities in an unrealized loss position for less than twelve months was $38.9 million, and the unrealized losses on those securities in an unrealized loss position for less than twelve months was $0.4 million. None of these securities were in an unrealized loss position for more than twelve months at June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively.

At June 30, 2016, private label securities with a fair value of $97.9 million secured by collateral originated in 2005 and prior were in an unrealized loss position. Their unrealized loss position of approximately $2.1 million is attributable to a combination of factors, including relative changes in interest rates since the time of purchase. The collateral underlying these mortgage investments are 30- and 15-year fixed and 10/1 adjustable rate mortgage loans with low loan to values, subordination and all historically have had minimal foreclosures. Based on its assessment of these factors, management believes that the unrealized losses on these debt security holdings are a function of changes in investment spreads and interest rate movements and not changes in credit quality. Management expects to recover the entire amortized cost basis of these securities.

At June 30, 2016, the Company also had $0.8 million of unrealized losses on collateralized mortgage obligations and mortgage backed securities of government sponsored entities having a fair value of $91.4 million that were attributable to a combination of factors, including relative changes in interest rates since the time of purchase. The contractual cash flows for these securities are guaranteed by U.S. government agencies and U.S. government-sponsored enterprises. Based on our assessment of these factors, management believes that the unrealized losses on these debt security holdings are a function of changes in investment spreads and interest movements and not changes in credit quality. Management expects to recover the entire amortized cost basis of these securities.

At June 30, 2016, the Company also had $5.0 million of unrealized losses on collateralized loan obligations having a fair value of $143.2 million that were attributable to a combination of factors, including relative changes in interest rates, spreads and interest movements since the time of purchase. Based on our assessment of these factors, management believes that the unrealized losses on these debt security holdings are a function of changes in investment spreads and interest movements and not changes in credit quality. Management expects to recover the entire amortized cost basis of these securities.

At June 30, 2016, $32.8 million of remaining securities categories had unrealized losses of $0.5 million, but losses have been outstanding for less than twelve months. Management believes that unrealized losses on these debt security holdings are a function of changes in investment spreads and interest movements and not change in credit quality.

As of June 30, 2016, management does not intend to sell securities that are in unrealized loss positions and it is not more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell these securities before recovery of the amortized cost basis. Therefore, management does not consider any investment to be other-than-temporarily impaired at June 30, 2016.

Included in other assets is $24.0 million of Federal Home Loan Bank and Federal Reserve Bank stock stated at par value. At June 30, 2106, the Company has not identified events or changes in circumstances which may have a significant adverse effect on the carrying value of the $24.0 million of cost method investment securities.

The Company also holds 11,330 shares of Visa Class B stock, which following resolution of Visa litigation will be converted to Visa Class A shares (the conversion rate was 1.6483 shares of Class A stock for each share of Class B stock) for a total of 18,675 shares of Visa Class A stock with a value of $1.4 million. Our ownership is related to prior ownership in Visa’s network, while Visa operated as a cooperative. This ownership is recorded on our financial records at a zero basis.
