Contractual maturities of the Company’s mortgage-backed securities generally exceed ten years; however, the effective lives may be significantly shorter due to prepayments of the underlying loans and due to the nature of these securities.

There were no gross realized gains or losses from sales of investment securities for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2023 and 2022.

Management has assessed the securities available for sale in an unrealized loss position at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 and determined the decline in fair value below amortized cost to be temporary. In making this determination, management considered the period of time the securities were in a loss position, the percentage decline in comparison to the securities’ amortized cost, and the financial condition of the issuer (primarily government or government-sponsored enterprises). In addition, management does not intend to sell these securities and it is not more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell these securities before recovery of their amortized cost. Management believes the decline in fair value is primarily related to market interest rate fluctuations and not to the credit deterioration of the individual issuers.

The Company has not recorded any other-than-temporary impairment (“OTTI”) charges during the nine month period ended September 30, 2023 and did not record any OTTI charges during 2022. The credit worthiness of the Company’s securities portfolio is largely reliant on the ability of U.S. government sponsored agencies such as Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”), Federal National Mortgage Association (“FNMA”), Government National Mortgage Association (“GNMA”), and Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“FHLMC”), and municipalities throughout New York State to meet their obligations. In addition, dysfunctional markets could materially alter the liquidity, interest rate, and pricing risk of the portfolio. Past performance is not a guarantee for similar performance of the Company’s securities portfolio in future periods.
