Student Loan Pools are typically 97% guaranteed by the United States government while SBA bonds are 100% backed by the full faith and credit of the United States government. The majority of the mortgage-backed securities included in the tables above and below are issued or guaranteed by an agency of the United States government such as Ginnie Mae, or by Government Sponsored Entities ("GSEs"), including Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. Ginnie Mae mortgage-backed securities are backed by the full faith and credit of the United States government, while those issued by GSEs are not.

Also included in mortgage-backed securities in the tables above and below are private label collateralized mortgage obligation ("CMO") securities, which are issued by non-governmental real estate mortgage investment conduits and are not backed by the full faith and credit of the United States government.  At March 31, 2022, the Bank held AFS private label CMO mortgage-backed securities with an amortized cost and fair value of $62.5 million and $60.3 million, compared to an amortized cost and fair value of $41.8 million and $41.7 million at December 31, 2021, respectively.

The amortized cost and fair value of investments AFS at March 31, 2022 are shown below by contractual maturity.  Expected maturities will differ from contractual maturities because borrowers have the right to prepay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties. Since mortgage-backed securities are not due at a single maturity date, they are disclosed separately, rather than allocated over the maturity groupings set forth in the table below.

At March 31, 2022, the amortized cost and fair value of investments AFS pledged as collateral for certain deposit accounts, FHLB advances and other borrowings were $330.4 million and $326.1 million, respectively, compared to an amortized cost and fair value of $335.6 million and $342.6 million, respectively, at December 31, 2021.

There were no sales of AFS securities during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021; and therefore, no proceeds from sales, gross gains or gross losses were recorded during those periods.
The following tables show gross unrealized losses and fair value, aggregated by investment category, and length of time that the individual available for sale securities were in a continuous unrealized loss position at the dates indicated.

Securities classified as available for sale are recorded at fair market value.  At March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, 347 and 199 individual AFS securities were in a loss position, including 92 and 83 securities that were in a loss position for greater than 12 months, respectively. The Company has the ability and intent to hold these securities until such time as the value recovers or the securities mature.  The Company believes, based on industry analyst reports and credit ratings, that the deterioration in value is attributable to changes in market interest rates and is not in the credit quality of the issuer and therefore, these losses are not considered other-than-temporary. The Company reviews its investment securities portfolio at least quarterly and more frequently when economic conditions warrant, assessing whether there is any indication of other-than-temporary impairment (“OTTI”).
Additional deterioration in market and economic conditions related to the novel coronavirus of 2019 (“COVID-19”) pandemic may, however, have an adverse impact on credit quality in the future and result in OTTI charges. Factors considered in the review include estimated future cash flows, length of time and extent to which market value has been less than cost, the financial condition and near term prospects of the issuer, and our intent and ability to retain the security to allow for an anticipated recovery in market value. If the review determines that there is OTTI, an impairment loss is recognized in earnings equal to the difference between the investment’s cost and its fair value at the balance sheet date of the reporting period for which the assessment is made, or the Company may recognize a portion in other comprehensive income. The fair value of investments on which OTTI is recognized then becomes the new cost basis of the investment. There was no OTTI recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and the year ended December 31, 2021.
