A total of 156 securities have been identified by the Company as temporarily impaired at June 30, 2015. Of the 156 securities, 154 are investment grade and two are speculative grade. Mortgage-backed securities, municipal securities and corporate securities make up the majority of the gross unrealized losses for temporarily impaired securities at June 30, 2015. Market prices change daily and are affected by conditions beyond the control of the Company. Although the Company has the ability to hold these securities until the temporary loss is recovered, decisions by management may necessitate a sale before the loss is fully recovered. No such sales were anticipated or required as of June 30, 2015. Investment decisions reflect the strategic asset/liability objectives of the Company. The investment portfolio is analyzed frequently by the Company and managed to provide an overall positive impact to the Company’s consolidated income statement and balance sheet.

Other-than-temporary impairment losses

At June 30, 2015, the Company evaluated the investment portfolio for possible other-than-temporary impairment losses and concluded that no adverse change in cash flows occurred and did not consider any portfolio securities to be other-than-temporarily impaired. Based on this analysis and because the Company does not intend to sell securities prior to maturity and it is more likely than not the Company will not be required to sell any securities before recovery of amortized cost basis, which may be at maturity. For debt securities related to corporate securities, the Company determined that there was no other adverse change in the cash flows as viewed by a market participant; therefore, the Company does not consider the investments in these assets to be other-than-temporarily impaired at June 30, 2015. However, there is a risk that the Company’s continuing reviews could result in recognition of other-than-temporary impairment charges in the future. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and the year ended December 31, 2014, no credit related impairment losses were recognized by the Company.

The Company’s investment in FHLB stock totaled $4.1 million and $3.6 million at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. FHLB stock is generally viewed as a long-term investment and as a restricted security which is carried at cost because there is no market for the stock other than the FHLB or member institutions. Therefore, when evaluating FHLB stock for impairment, its value is based on the ultimate recoverability of the par value rather than by recognizing temporary declines in value. The Company does not consider this investment to be other-than-temporarily impaired at June 30, 2015, and no impairment has been recognized. FHLB stock is shown in restricted securities on the consolidated balance sheets.

The Company also has an investment in Federal Reserve Bank (“FRB”) stock which totaled $1.7 million at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. The investment in FRB stock is a required investment and is carried at cost since there is no ready market. The Company does not consider this investment to be other-than-temporarily impaired at June 30, 2015 and no impairment has been recognized. FRB stock is shown in the restricted securities line item on the consolidated balance sheets.
