Mortgage-backed securities include mortgage-backed obligations of U.S. Government agencies and obligations of U.S. Government-sponsored enterprises. These obligations have contractual maturities ranging from less than one year to approximately 30 years with lower anticipated lives to maturity due to prepayments. All mortgage-backed securities contain a certain amount of risk related to the uncertainty of prepayments of the underlying mortgages. Interest rate changes have a direct impact upon prepayment speeds; therefore, First Commonwealth uses computer simulation models to test the average life and yield volatility of all mortgage-backed securities under various interest rate scenarios to monitor the potential impact on earnings and interest rate risk positions.

Expected maturities will differ from contractual maturities because issuers may have the right to call or repay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties. Other fixed income securities within the portfolio also contain prepayment risk.

(a)Mortgage-backed and collateralized mortgage securities, which have prepayment provisions, are not assigned to maturity categories due to fluctuations in their prepayment speeds. Mortgage-Backed Securities include an amortized cost of $105.6 million and a fair value of $105.9 million for Obligations of U.S. Government agencies issued by Ginnie Mae and an amortized cost of $392.9 million and a fair value of $394.3 million for Obligations of U.S. Government-sponsored enterprises issued by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.

Securities held to maturity with an amortized cost of $348.8 million and $228.1 million were pledged as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, to secure public deposits and for other purposes required or permitted by law.

As a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB"), First Commonwealth is required to purchase and hold stock in the FHLB to satisfy membership and borrowing requirements. The level of stock required to be held is dependent on the amount of First Commonwealth's mortgage-related assets and outstanding borrowings with the FHLB. This stock is restricted in that it can

only be sold to the FHLB or to another member institution, and all sales of FHLB stock must be at par. As a result of these restrictions, FHLB stock is unlike other investment securities insofar as there is no trading market for FHLB stock and the transfer price is determined by FHLB membership rules and not by market participants. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, our FHLB stock totaled $9.9 million and $10.6 million, respectively, and is included in “Other investments” on the unaudited Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition.

FHLB stock is held as a long-term investment and its value is determined based on the ultimate recoverability of the par value. First Commonwealth evaluates impairment quarterly and has concluded that the par value of its investment in FHLB stock will be recovered. Accordingly, no impairment charge was recorded on these securities during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021.

As of both June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, "Other investments" also includes $1.7 million in equity securities. These securities do not have a readily determinable fair value and are carried at cost. During the three-months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, there were no gains or losses recognized through earnings on equity securities. On a quarterly basis, management evaluates equity securities by reviewing the severity and duration of decline in estimated fair value, research reports, analysts’ recommendations, credit rating changes, news stories, annual reports, regulatory filings, impact of interest rate changes and other relevant information.

The following table presents the gross unrealized losses and estimated fair values at June 30, 2021 for both available for sale and held to maturity securities by investment category and time frame for which securities have been in a continuous unrealized loss position:

As of June 30, 2021, our corporate securities had an amortized cost and an estimated fair value of $23.1 million and $24.4 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2020, our corporate securities had an amortized cost and estimated fair value of $22.9 million and $24.4 million, respectively. Corporate securities are comprised of debt issued by large regional banks. There was one corporate security in an unrealized loss position as of June 30, 2021 and none as of December 31, 2020. When unrealized losses exist, management reviews each of the issuer’s asset quality, earnings trends and capital position to determine whether the unrealized loss position is a result of credit losses. All interest payments on the corporate securities are being made as contractually required.
