Government-sponsored enterprises (“GSEs”) are private enterprises established and chartered by the Federal Government, or its various insurance and lease programs that carry the full faith and credit obligation of the US Government.

 

The amortized cost and fair value of fixed maturities at June 30, 2015, by contractual maturity, are shown below.  Expected maturities will differ from contractual maturities because borrowers may have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties.  CMOs and MBSs are shown separately, as they are not due at a single maturity.

Substantially all of the unrealized losses on fixed maturities at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 were attributable to changes in market interest rates.  Because the Company does not intend to sell, nor is it more likely than not that the Company will have to sell, such investments before recovery of their amortized cost bases, the Company does not consider those investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at June 30, 2015.

For the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, proceeds from sales of available-for-sale securities were $39,226,000 and $27,634,000, respectively. For the three months and six months ended June 30, 2015, the Company recorded realized gross gains of $294,000 and $451,000, respectively, and gross losses of $54,000 and $88,000, respectively, on available-for-sale securities.  For the three months and six months ended June 30, 2014, the Company recorded realized gross gains of $198,000 and $305,000, respectively, and gross losses of $60,000 and $112,000, respectively, on available-for-sale securities.

 

We recognize an other-than-temporary impairment loss in earnings in the period that we determine: 1) we intend to sell the security; 2) it is more likely than not that we will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis; or 3) the security has a credit loss. Any non-credit portion of the other-than-temporary impairment loss is recognized in other comprehensive income (loss).  For the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, there were no other-than-temporary impairments recognized in earnings.

 

Cumulative credit losses for other-than-temporary impairments recorded on securities for which a portion of an other-than-temporary impairment was recognized in other comprehensive income (loss) were $288,000 as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014.
