Our initial CECL reserve against our debt securities

of $445,000 recorded on January 1, 2020 is reflected as a direct charge to retained earnings on our consolidated statements of changes in equity; however subsequent changes to the CECL reserve are recognized through net income
 (loss)
on our consolidated statements of operations. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, we recorded a decrease of $1.0 million and an increase of $3.7 million, respectively, in the expected credit loss reserve against our debt securities
held-to-maturity,
bringing our total CECL reserve to $4.1 million as of June 30, 2020. This CECL reserve reflects the macroeconomic impact of the
COVID-19
 
pandemic on commercial real estate markets generally and is not specific to any loan losses or impairments in our portfolio. See Note 2 for further discussion of
COVID-19.
