Investments

The Company’s management determines the appropriate classifications of investments in fixed maturity securities and equity securities at the acquisition date and re-evaluates the classifications at each balance sheet date.

Fixed maturity securities held to maturity are carried at cost, adjusted for amortization of premium or accretion of discount. Although the Company has the ability and intent to hold these investments to maturity, infrequent and unusual conditions could occur under which it would sell certain of these securities. Those conditions include unforeseen changes in asset quality, significant changes in tax laws, and changes in regulatory capital requirements or permissible investments.

Equity securities available for sale are carried at estimated fair value. Changes in fair values net of income taxes are reported as unrealized appreciation or depreciation and recorded as an adjustment directly to stockholders’ equity and, accordingly, have no effect on net income.

Mortgage loans on real estate and construction loans held for investment are carried at their unpaid principal balances adjusted for charge-offs and the related allowance for loan losses. The Company defers related material loan origination fees, net of related direct loan origination costs, and amortizes the net fees over the term of the loans.
