There are 88 debt securities with fair values totaling $36.6 million considered temporarily impaired at June 30, 2013. The primary cause of the temporary impairments in the Corporation's investments in debt securities was fluctuations in interest rates.  During the second quarter of 2013, the municipal bond sector, which is included in the Corporation's obligations of states and political subdivisions category of securities, and securities of U.S. government agencies and corporations experienced falling securities prices as improvement in select U.S. economic indicators and statements made by certain Federal Reserve officials raised concerns that the Federal Reserve would reduce its efforts to stimulate economic recovery through its bond-buying program known as "quantitative easing." Interest rates rose during the second quarter of 2013, causing corresponding unrealized losses on the Corporation's portfolio of securities of U.S. government agencies and corporations and obligations of states and political subdivisions. The vast majority of the Corporation's municipal bond portfolio is made up of securities where the issuing municipalities have unlimited taxing authority to support their debt service obligations. At June 30, 2013, approximately 97 percent of the Corporation's obligations of states and political subdivisions, as measured by market value, were rated “A” or better by Standard & Poor's or Moody's Investors Service. Of those in a net unrealized loss position, approximately 96 percent were rated, as measured by market value, “A” or better at June 30, 2013. Because the Corporation intends to hold these investments in debt securities to maturity and it is more likely than not that the Corporation will not be required to sell these investments before a recovery of unrealized losses, the Corporation does not consider these investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at June 30, 2013 and no other-then-temporary impairment has been recognized.


Securities in an unrealized loss position at December 31, 2012, by duration of the period of the unrealized loss, are shown below.

The Corporation’s investment in Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) stock totaled $3.53 million at June 30, 2013 and $3.74 million at December 31, 2012. FHLB stock is generally viewed as a long-term investment and as a restricted investment security, which is carried at cost, because there is no market for the stock, other than the FHLBs or member institutions. Therefore, when evaluating FHLB stock for impairment, its value is based on the ultimate recoverability of the par value rather than by recognizing temporary declines in value. The Corporation does not consider this investment to be other-than-temporarily impaired at June 30, 2013 and no impairment has been recognized. FHLB stock is shown as a separate line item on the balance sheet and is not a part of the available for sale securities portfolio.
