During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company sold available-for-sale securities with a total par value of $12.0 million resulting in a gross pre-tax loss of $202 thousand. The Company did not sell or recognize any gain or loss for any securities for the three months ended March 31, 2022.

Available-for-sale securities having a market value of $78.4 million and $83.4 million at March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, were pledged to secure public deposits and for other purposes required by law. These securities had an amortized cost of $84.9 million and $91.0 million at March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

The following tables summarize the fair value of securities available-for-sale at March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 and the corresponding amounts of gross unrealized losses. Management uses the valuations as of month-end in determining when securities are

in an unrealized loss position. Therefore, a security’s market value could have exceeded its amortized cost on other days during the prior twelve-month period.

The Company had 207 and 98 securities in an unrealized loss position for 12 months or longer as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. The Company has evaluated available-for-sale securities in an unrealized loss position for credit related impairment at March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 and concluded no impairment existed based on a combination of factors, which included: (1) the securities are of high credit quality, (2) unrealized losses are primarily the result of market volatility and increases in market interest rates, (3) the contractual terms of the investments do not permit the issuer(s) to settle the securities at a price less than the par value of each investment, (4) issuers continue to make timely principal and interest payments, and (5) the Company does not intend to sell any of the investments and the accounting standard of “more likely than not” has not been met for the Company to be required to sell any of the investments before recovery of its amortized cost basis. As such, there was no allowance for credit losses on available-for-sale securities at March 31, 2023.

The table below summarizes, by major security type, the contractual maturities of our available-for-sale investment securities as of March 31, 2023.
