U.S. Treasury Securities and Obligations of U.S. Government Corporations and Agencies. At June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, there were no available-for sale or held-to-maturity U.S. Treasury securities and obligations of U.S. government corporations and agencies in a continuous unrealized loss position for twelve months or more.

Obligations of states and political subdivisions. At June 30, 2021, there were no obligations of states and political subdivisions in a continuous loss position for twelve months or more.

Mortgage-backed Securities: GSE Residential. At June 30, 2021, there were eleven mortgage-backed securities with a fair value of $121,550,000 and unrealized losses of $844,000 in a continuous unrealized loss position for twelve months or more. At December 31, 2020 there were two mortgage-backed securities with a fair value of $2,377,000 and unrealized losses of $0 in a continuous unrealized loss position for twelve months or more.

Other securities. At June 30, 2021, and December 31, 2020, there were no other securities in a continuous unrealized loss position for twelve months or more.

The Company does not believe any unrealized losses as of June 30, 2021 represents other than temporary impairment ("OTTI"). However, given the uncertainty of the financial markets, the Company may be required to recognize OTTI losses in future periods with respect to its available for sale investment securities portfolio. The amount and timing of any additional OTTI will depend on the decline in the underlying cash flows of the securities. Should the impairment of any of these securities become other-than-temporary, the cost basis of the investment will be reduced, and the resulting loss recognized in the period the other-than-temporary impairment is identified.
