Other-Than-Temporary Impairments

If the fair value of an available-for-sale or held-to-maturity security is less than its amortized cost basis, the Bancorp must determine whether an OTTI has occurred. Under U.S. GAAP, the recognition and measurement requirements related to OTTI differ for debt and equity securities.

 

For debt securities, if the Bancorp intends to sell the debt security or will more likely than not be required to sell the debt security before recovery of the entire amortized cost basis, then an OTTI has occurred and the Bancorp must recognize through earnings the entire OTTI, which is calculated as the difference between the fair value of the debt security and its amortized cost basis. However, even if the Bancorp does not intend to sell the debt security and will not likely be required to sell the debt security before recovery of its entire amortized cost basis, the Bancorp must evaluate expected cash flows to be received and determine if a credit loss has occurred. In the event of a credit loss, the credit component of the impairment is recognized within noninterest income and the non-credit component is recognized through accumulated other comprehensive income. The Bancorp recognized $9 million of OTTI on its available-for-sale securities during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 and no OTTI was recognized on held-to-maturity debt securities. The Bancorp recognized $3 million of OTTI on its available-for-sale debt securities during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010 and no OTTI was recognized on held-to-maturity debt securities. Additionally, at September 30, 2011 an immaterial percent of unrealized losses in the available-for-sale securities portfolio were represented by non-rated securities, compared to approximately one percent at December 31, 2010 and three percent at September 30, 2010.

 

For equity securities, the Bancorp's management evaluates the securities in an unrealized loss position in the available-for-sale portfolio for OTTI on the basis of the duration of the decline in value of the security and severity of that decline as well as the Bancorp's intent and ability to hold these securities for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in the fair value. If it is determined that the impairment on an equity security is other than temporary, an impairment loss equal to the difference between the carrying value of the security and its fair value is recognized within noninterest income in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, the Bancorp did not recognize OTTI on any of its available-for-sale equity securities.
