At September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, all of the mortgaged-backed HTM securities were comprised of U.S. government agency and Government-sponsored enterprises securities. There was no allowance for credit losses on HTM securities as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.

Included in net realized gains (losses), the Company recorded gains from calls on HTM securities of approximately $14 thousand for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and approximately $29 thousand for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. Included in net realized gains (losses), the Company recorded gains from calls on HTM securities of approximately $11 thousand for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and approximately $15 thousand for the nine months ended September 30, 2020.

There were no sales of HTM securities during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021. During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company sold HTM securities with an amortized cost of $1.0 million and resulted in a realized loss of $1 thousand. Due to significant deterioration in the creditworthiness of the issuer of the HTM securities, the circumstances caused the Company to change its intent to hold the HTM securities sold to maturity, which did not affect the Company’s intent to hold the remainder of the HTM portfolio to maturity.

AFS and HTM securities with amortized costs totaling $1.6 billion at September 30, 2021 and $1.4 billion at December 31, 2020 were pledged to secure public deposits and for other purposes required or permitted by law. Additionally, at September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, AFS and HTM securities with an amortized cost of $149.2 million and $305.2 million, respectively, were pledged as collateral for securities sold under repurchase agreements.

As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the carrying value of equity securities without readily determinable fair values was $1.0 million and $2.0 million, respectively. The Company performed a qualitative assessment to determine whether the investments were impaired and identified no areas of concern as of September 30, 2021 and 2020. There were no impairments, downward or upward adjustments recognized for equity securities without readily determinable fair values during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020.

Maturities of mortgage-backed, collateralized mortgage obligations and asset-backed securities are stated based on their estimated average lives. Actual maturities may differ from estimated average lives or contractual maturities because, in certain cases, borrowers have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties.

Except for U.S. government securities and government-sponsored enterprises securities, there were no holdings, when taken in the aggregate, of any single issuer that exceeded 10% of consolidated stockholders’ equity at September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.

The Company does not believe the AFS securities that were in an unrealized loss position as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, which consisted of 109 and 23 individual securities, respectively, represented a credit loss impairment. AFS debt securities in unrealized loss positions are evaluated for impairment related to credit losses at least quarterly. As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the majority of the AFS securities in an unrealized loss position consisted of debt securities issued by U.S. government agencies or U.S. government-sponsored enterprises that carry the explicit and/or implicit guarantee of the U.S. government, which are widely recognized as “risk-free” and have a long history of zero credit losses. Total gross unrealized losses were primarily attributable to changes in interest rates, relative to when the investment securities were purchased, and not due to the credit quality of the investment securities. The Company does not intend to sell, nor is it more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis, which may be at maturity. The Company elected to exclude accrued interest receivable (“AIR”) from the amortized cost basis of debt securities. AIR on AFS debt securities totaled $3.3 million at September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 and is excluded from the estimate of credit losses and reported in the financial statement line for other assets.

None of the bank’s HTM debt securities were past due or on non-accrual status as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. There was no accrued interest reversed against interest income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 or the year-ended December 31, 2020 as all securities remained on accrual status. In addition, there were no collateral-dependent HTM debt securities as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, 53% and 65%, respectively, of the Company’s HTM debt securities were issued by U.S. government agencies or U.S. government-sponsored enterprises. These securities carry the explicit and/or implicit guarantee of the U.S. government, are widely recognized as “risk free,” and have a long history of zero credit loss. Therefore, the Company did not record an allowance for credit losses for these securities as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. The remaining HTM debt securities at September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 were comprised of state and municipal obligations with bond ratings of A to AAA. Utilizing the Current Expected Credit Losses (“CECL”) approach, the Company determined that the expected credit loss on its HTM municipal bond portfolio was immaterial and therefore no allowance for credit loss was recorded as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. AIR on HTM debt securities totaled $2.6 million and $2.7 million at September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, and is excluded from the estimate of credit losses and reported in the other assets financial statement line.
