Unrealized gains and losses on investment securities available-for-sale are recognized in stockholders’ equity as accumulated other comprehensive income or loss. At September 30, 2020, the Company had accumulated other comprehensive income of $64.0 million, or $45.7 million net of tax, compared to an accumulated other comprehensive income of $30.1 million, or $21.5 million net of tax, at December 31, 2019.

    
At September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, there were no holdings of securities of any one issuer, other than the U.S. government and its agencies, in an amount greater than 10% of stockholders’ equity.

The Company reviews individual securities classified as available-for-sale to determine whether a decline in fair value below the amortized cost basis is deemed credit related or due to other factors such as changes in interest rates and general market conditions. The Company recognizes credit losses in current period earnings, through a change to provision for credit losses, when declines in the fair value of individual available-for-sale securities are below their amortized cost, and the decline in fair value is deemed to be credit related. Declines in fair value below amortized cost not deemed credit related are recorded net of tax in accumulated other comprehensive income. In the event the Company is required to sell or has the intent to sell an available-for-sale security that has experienced a decline in fair value below its amortized cost, the Company writes the amortized cost of the security down to fair value in the current period.

During the second quarter of 2020, the Company acquired $829.9 million of available-for-sale securities in connection with the acquisition of Opus. Such securities were evaluated and it was determined that there were no investment securities classified as purchase credit deteriorated upon acquisition and, as a result, no allowance for credit losses was recorded.

As of September 30, 2020, the Company has not recorded credit losses on certain available-for-sale securities that were in an unrealized loss position due to the high quality of the investments, with investment grade ratings, and many of them are issued by U.S. government agencies. Additionally, the Company continues to receive contractual principal and interest payments in a timely manner. The Company performed a qualitative assessment of these investments as of September 30, 2020, and does not believe the declines in fair value are credit related. There were no provision for credit losses recognized for investment securities during the nine months ended September 30, 2020. There were no other than temporary impairment losses recognized for investment securities during the nine months ended September 30, 2019.

At September 30, 2020, there were no available-for-sale or held-to-maturity securities in nonaccrual status. All securities in the portfolio were current with their contractual principal and interest payments. At September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, there were no securities purchased with deterioration in credit quality since their origination. At September 30, 2020, there were no collateral dependent available-for-sale or held-to-maturity securities.

The net proceeds from the sales of available-for-sale securities during the three months ended June 30, 2020 included $6.5 million of receivables for security sales which settled during the three months ended September 30, 2020.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company recognized gross gains on sales of available-for-sale securities in the amount of $10.4 million and $6.5 million, respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company recognized gross losses on the sales of available-for sale securities in the amount of $1.5 million and $1.6 million, respectively. The Company had net proceeds from the sales of available-for-sale securities of $558.9 million and $418.5 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.
        
Investment securities with carrying values of $149.0 million and $125.7 million as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively, were pledged to secure public deposits, other borrowings, and for other purposes as required or permitted by law.
FHLB, FRB and Other Stock

At September 30, 2020, the Company had $17.3 million in FHLB stock, $51.7 million in Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco (“FRB”) stock and $25.7 million in other stock, all carried at cost. During the three months ended June 30, 2020 and September 30, 2019, the FHLB repurchased $17.3 million and $5.4 million, respectively, of the Company’s excess FHLB stock through its stock repurchase program. During the three months ended September 30, 2020, the FHLB did not repurchase any of the Company’s excess FHLB stock through its stock repurchase program.

The Company evaluates its investments in FHLB, FRB and other stock for impairment periodically, including their capital adequacy and overall financial condition. No impairment loss has been recorded through September 30, 2020.

Allowance for Credit Losses on Investment Securities

The Company accounts for credit losses on debt securities in accordance with ASC 326, which requires the Company to record an ACL on held-to-maturity investment securities at the time of purchase or acquisition. The ACL for held-to-maturity investment securities represents the Company’s current estimate of expected credit losses that may be incurred over the life of the investment. An ACL on available-for-sale investment securities is recorded when the fair value of the investment is below its amortized cost and the decline in fair value has been deemed to be credit related through the Company’s qualitative assessment. Non-credit related declines in fair value of available-for-sale investment securities are not recorded through an ACL, but rather recorded as an adjustment to accumulated other comprehensive income, net of tax. The Company determines credit losses on both available-for-sale investment securities through the use of a discounted cash flow approach using the security’s effective interest rate. The ACL is measured as the amount by which an investment security’s amortized cost exceeds the net present value of expected future cash flows. However, the amount of credit losses for available-for-sale investment securities is limited to the amount of a security’s unrealized loss. The ACL is established through a charge to provision for credit losses in current period earnings.

The Company did not record an ACL for available-for-sale or held-to-maturity investment securities during the nine months ended September 30, 2020. For available-for-sale securities where estimated fair value was below amortized cost, such declines were deemed non-credit related and recorded as an adjustment to accumulated other comprehensive income, net of tax. Non-credit related decline in fair value of available-for-sale investment securities can be attributed to changes in interest rates and other market related factors. The Company did not record an ACL for held-to maturity securities during the nine months ended September 30, 2020, because the likelihood of non-repayment is remote.
