The increase in unrealized gains from December 31, 2019 to September 30, 2020 is primarily due to interest rate declines.  The longer term points on the yield curve have declined since year-end which increases the fair value of securities in the portfolio.
The amortized cost and fair value of available for sale and held to maturity securities at September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, by contractual maturity, are shown below. Expected maturities will differ from contractual maturities because issuers may have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties.

Certain investments in debt and equity securities are reported in the financial statements at an amount less than their historical cost as indicated in the table below.

The Corporation's management believes the decline in fair value for these securities was temporary. 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 net income during the period the other-than-temporary-impairment ("OTTI") is identified. The Corporation’s management has evaluated all securities with unrealized losses for OTTI and concluded no OTTI existed at September 30, 2020.

In determining the fair value of the investment securities portfolio, the Corporation utilizes a third party for portfolio accounting services, including market value input, for those securities classified as Level 1 and Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.  The Corporation has obtained an understanding of what inputs are being used by the vendor in pricing the portfolio and how the vendor classified these securities based upon these inputs.  From these discussions, the Corporation’s management is comfortable that the classifications are proper.  The Corporation has gained trust in the data for two reasons:  (a) independent spot testing of the data is conducted by the Corporation through obtaining market quotes from various brokers on a periodic basis; and (b) actual gains or loss resulting from the sale of certain securities has proven the data to be accurate over time.   Fair value of securities classified as Level 3 in the valuation hierarchy was determined using a discounted cash flow model that incorporated market estimates of interest rates and volatility in markets that have not been active.

State and Municipal Securities, U.S. Government-Sponsored Agency Securities and Foreign Investment Securities
  
The unrealized losses on the Corporation's investments in securities of state and political subdivisions, U.S. Government-Sponsored Agency securities and foreign investment securities were caused by interest rate changes. The contractual terms of those investments do not permit the issuer to settle the securities at a price less than the amortized cost basis of the investments. Because the Corporation does not intend to sell the investments and it is not more likely than not that the Corporation will be required to sell the investments before recovery of their amortized cost basis, which may be maturity, the Corporation does not consider those investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at September 30, 2020. The state and municipal securities portfolio contains unrealized losses of $187,000 on thirteen securities and $1,240,000 on seventy-one securities in the available for sale and held to maturity portfolios, respectively. At September 30, 2020, the Corporation had little to no exposure to municipal bonds related to entertainment receipts, student housing, parking facilities, airports, nursing homes or public transit. The U.S. Government-Sponsored Agency securities portfolio contains no unrealized losses in the available for sale portfolio, and unrealized losses of $33,000 on two securities in the held to maturity portfolio. The foreign investment securities portfolio contains no unrealized losses in the available for sale portfolio, and an unrealized loss of $2,000 on one security in the held to maturity portfolio.

U.S. Government-Sponsored Mortgage-Backed Securities

The unrealized losses on the Corporation's investment in mortgage-backed securities were a result of interest rate changes. The Corporation expects to recover the amortized cost basis over the term of the securities. Because the decline in market value is attributable to changes in interest rates and not credit quality, and because the Corporation does not intend to sell the investments and it is not more likely than not that the Corporation will be required to sell the investments before recovery of their amortized cost basis, which may be maturity, the Corporation does not consider those investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at September 30, 2020. The mortgage-backed securities portfolio contains no unrealized losses in the available for sale portfolio, and an unrealized loss of $3,000 on one security in the held to maturity portfolio. All these securities are issued by a U.S. government-sponsored entity and have an implicit or explicit government guarantee. The slowing of prepayments and the forbearance programs resulting from the financial impacts of COVID-19 could increase bond duration and potentially improve market values on these securities.
