The amortized cost and estimated fair value of debt securities available-for-sale and held-to-maturity as of December 31, 2021, by contractual maturity are shown below. Maturities may differ from contractual maturities in mortgage-backed securities because the mortgages underlying the securities may be called or repaid without penalty. Therefore, these securities are not included in the maturity categories in the following maturity summary.

Total debt securities held-to-maturity$73,202 $(1,648)$— $— $73,202 $(1,648)

As of December 31, 2021, the Company’s held-to-maturity security portfolio consisted of 14 securities, 13 of which were in an unrealized loss position. At December 31, 2021, the Company held 11 mortgage-backed securities and two state, county and municipal securities that were in an unrealized loss position.

During 2021 and 2020, the Company received timely and current interest and principal payments on all of the securities classified as corporate debt securities. The Company’s investments in subordinated debt include investments in regional and super-regional banks on which the Company prepares regular analysis through review of financial information and credit ratings. Investments in preferred securities are also concentrated in the preferred obligations of regional and super-regional banks through non-pooled investment structures. The Company did not have investments in “pooled” trust preferred securities at December 31, 2021 or 2020.

At December 31, 2021 and 2020, all of the Company's mortgage-backed securities were obligations of government-sponsored agencies.

Management and the Company’s Asset and Liability Committee (the “ALCO Committee”) evaluates available-for-sale securities in an unrealized loss position on at least a quarterly basis, and more frequently when economic or market concerns warrant such evaluation, to determine if credit-related impairment exists. Management first evaluates whether they intend to sell or more likely than not will be required to sell an impaired security before recovering its amortized cost basis. If either criteria is met, the entire amount of unrealized loss is recognized in earnings with a corresponding adjustment to the security's amortized cost basis. If either of the above criteria is not met, management evaluates whether the decline in fair value is attributable to credit or resulted from other factors. The Company does not intend to sell these investment securities at an
unrealized loss position at December 31, 2021, and it is more likely than not that the Company will not be required to sell these securities prior to recovery or maturity. Based on the results of management's review, at December 31, 2021, management determined none was attributable to credit impairment and decreased the allowance for credit losses accordingly. The remaining $195,000 in unrealized loss was determined to be from factors other than credit.
