Management evaluates securities for other-than-temporary impairment at least quarterly, and more frequently when economic or market concerns warrant such evaluation. Consideration is given to (
1
) the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, (
2
) the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, and (
3
) the intent and ability of the Company to retain its investment in the issuer for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recover in fair value.
 
At
September 30, 2017,
the U.S. government agency debt securities, including agency notes and bonds, mortgage-backed securities and CMO, and municipal obligations in a loss position had depreciated approximately
1.1%
from the amortized cost basis. All of the U.S. government agency securities and municipal obligations are issued by U.S. government agencies, government-sponsored enterprises and municipal governments, or are secured by
first
mortgage loans and municipal project revenues. These unrealized losses related principally to current interest rates for similar types of securities. In analyzing an issuer’s financial condition, management considers whether the securities are issued by the federal government, its agencies or other governments, whether downgrades by bond rating agencies have occurred, and the results of reviews of the issuer’s financial condition. As the Company has the ability to hold the debt securities until maturity, or the foreseeable future if classified as available for sale,
no
declines are deemed to be other-than-temporary.
 
While management does
not
anticipate any credit-related impairment losses at
September 30, 2017,
additional deterioration in market and economic conditions
may
have an adverse impact on credit quality in the future.
 
During the
three
months ended
September 30, 2017,
the Company realized gross losses on sales of available for sale municipal securities of
$7,000.
During the
nine
months ended
September 30, 2017,
the Company realized gross gains on sales of available for sale agency mortgage backed securities and CMO’s of
$58,000
and
$3,000,
respectively, and gross losses on  sales of available for sale municipal securities of
$7,000.
During the
nine
months ended
September 30, 2016,
the Company realized gross gains on sales of available for sale municipal securities of
$176,000.
During the
three
months ended
September 30, 2016,
the Company did
not
have any security sales.
 
Certain available for sale debt securities were pledged to secure public fund deposits at
September 30, 2017
and
December 31, 2016.
