At
September 30, 2017,
the investment portfolio included
567
securities. Of this number,
203
securities were in an unrealized loss position. The aggregate losses of these securities totaled approximately
0.8%
of the total amortized cost of the portfolio. Of these
203
securities,
80
securities had an unrealized loss for
twelve
months or more. All of the debt securities in unrealized loss positions are considered acceptable credit risks. Based upon an evaluation of the available evidence, including the recent changes in market rates, credit rating information and information obtained from regulatory filings, management believes the declines in fair value for these debt securities are temporary. In addition, the Company lacks the intent to sell these securities and it is
not
more-likely-than-
not
that the Company will be required to sell these debt securities before their anticipated recovery. At
September 30, 2017
and
December 31, 2016,
equity securities represented less than
1%
of the total portfolio.
 
The Company did
not
recognize
OTTI on any debt or equity securities for the
three
or
nine
months ended
September 30, 2017
and
2016.
   
 
All sales of securities for the
three
and
nine
months ended
September 30, 2017
and
2016
were from securities identified as AFS. Information on proceeds received, as well as pre-tax gross gains and losses from sales on those securities are as follows:

The amortized cost and fai
r value of securities as of
September 30, 2017
by contractual maturity are shown below. Expected maturities of residential mortgage-backed and related securities
may
differ from contractual maturities because the residential mortgages underlying the residential mortgage-backed and related securities
may
be prepaid without any penalties. Therefore, these securities are
not
included in the maturity categories in the following table. “Other securities” AFS are excluded from the maturity categories as there is
no
fixed maturity date for those securities.
