        The covered private label collateralized mortgage obligations ("CMO's") were acquired in the FDIC-assisted acquisition of Affinity Bank in August 2009 and are covered by an FDIC loss sharing agreement. The loss sharing provisions of this agreement expire in the third quarter of 2014 for non-single family covered assets such as these private label CMO's. Other securities consist primarily of asset-backed securities. See Note 11, Fair Value Measurements, for information on fair value measurements and methodology.

        As of March 31, 2014, securities available-for-sale with a carrying value of $291.9 million were pledged as collateral for borrowings, public deposits and other purposes as required by various statutes and agreements.

        During the three months ended March 31, 2014, we sold $137.3 million in government-sponsored enterprise ("GSE") pass through securities for which we realized a gross gain of $4.8 million. We sold these securities to take advantage of favorable market conditions for premium coupon seasoned GSE pass through securities, and redeployed the proceeds into single-maturity investments that are expected to perform better under current market conditions. During the three months ended March 31, 2013, we sold $12.4 million in corporate debt securities for which we realized a $409,000 gross gain. These securities were sold as part of our investment portfolio risk management activities to reduce price volatility and duration.

        The following tables present, for those securities that were in a gross unrealized loss position, the carrying values and the gross unrealized losses on securities by length of time the securities were in an unrealized loss position as of the dates indicated:

        We reviewed the securities that were in a continuous loss position less than 12 months and longer than 12 months at March 31, 2014, and concluded that their losses were a result of the level of market interest rates relative to the types of securities and pricing changes caused by shifting supply and demand dynamics and not a result of downgraded credit ratings or other indicators of deterioration of the underlying issuers' ability to repay. Accordingly, we determined that the securities were temporarily impaired and we did not recognize such impairment in the condensed consolidated statements of earnings. Additionally, we have no plans to sell these securities and believe that it is more likely than not we would not be required to sell these securities before recovery of their amortized cost.

        The following table presents the contractual maturity distribution of our available-for-sale securities portfolio based on amortized cost and carrying value as of the date indicated:

        Mortgage-backed securities have contractual terms to maturity, but require periodic payments to reduce principal. In addition, expected maturities may differ from contractual maturities because obligors and/or issuers may have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties.

  • FHLB Stock

        At March 31, 2014, the Company had a $25.0 million investment in Federal Home Loan Bank of San Francisco ("FHLB") stock carried at cost. During the first quarter of 2014, FHLB stock decreased $2.9 million due to redemptions by the FHLB. We evaluated the carrying value of our FHLB stock investment at March 31, 2014, and determined that it was not impaired. Our evaluation considered the long-term nature of the investment, the current financial and liquidity position of the FHLB, repurchase activity of excess stock by the FHLB at its carrying value, the return on the investment, and our intent and ability to hold this investment for a period of time sufficient to recover our recorded investment.
