Other-Than-Temporary-Impairment

 

Management evaluates securities for other-than-temporary impairment (“OTTI”) at least on a quarterly basis, and more frequently when economic or market conditions warrant. The investment securities portfolio is evaluated for OTTI by segregating the portfolio into two general segments and applying the appropriate OTTI model. Investment securities classified as available for sale or held-to-maturity are generally evaluated for OTTI under FASB ASC 320, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities. In determining OTTI under the FASB ASC 320 model, management considers many factors, including: (1) the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, (2) the financial condition and near term prospects of the issuer, (3) whether the market decline was affected by macroeconomic conditions, and (4) whether the Company has the intent to sell the debt security or more likely than not will be required to sell the debt security before its anticipated recovery. If either of the criteria regarding intent or requirement to sell is met, the entire difference between amortized cost and fair value is recognized as impairment through earnings. For debt securities that do not meet the aforementioned criteria, the amount of impairment is split into two components as follows: (1) OTTI related to credit loss, which must be recognized in the income statement and (2) OTTI related to other factors, which is recognized in other comprehensive income. The credit loss is defined as the difference between the present value of the cash flows expected to be collected and the amortized cost basis. The assessment of whether an other-than-temporary decline exists involves a high degree of subjectivity and judgment and is based on the information available to management at a point in time.

 

At September 30, 2015, the majority of unrealized losses on both the available for sale and held to maturity securities are related to the Company’s U.S. GSE residential collateralized mortgage obligations and other asset backed securities. The decrease in fair value of these securities is attributable to changes in interest rates and not credit quality. The Company does not have the intent to sell these securities and it is more likely than not that it will not be required to sell the securities before their anticipated recovery. Therefore, the Company does not consider these securities to be other-than-temporarily impaired at September 30, 2015.

 

There were no proceeds from sales of securities with no gross gains or gross losses realized for the three months ended September 30, 2015. There were $73.8 million of proceeds from sales of securities with gross gains of approximately $0.5 million and gross losses of approximately $0.5 million realized for the nine months ended September 30, 2015. There were $115.3 million of proceeds from sales of securities with gross gains of approximately $0.5 million and gross losses of approximately $0.5 million realized for the three months ended September 30, 2014. There were $348.8 million of proceeds from sales of securities with gross gains of approximately $1.6 million and gross losses of approximately $2.4 million realized for the nine months ended September 30, 2014. Proceeds from calls of securities were $0.4 million and $0.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Proceeds from calls of securities were $10.9 million and $2.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively

 

Securities having a fair value of approximately $488.2 million and $451.1 million at September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively, were pledged to secure public deposits and Federal Home Loan Bank and Federal Reserve Bank overnight borrowings. The Bank did not hold any trading securities during the nine months ended September 30, 2015 or the year ended December 31, 2014.

 

The Bank is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank of New York (“FHLB”). Members are required to own a particular amount of stock based on the level of borrowings and other factors, and may invest in additional amounts. The Bank is a member of the Atlantic Central Banker’s Bank (“ACBB”) and is required to own ACBB stock. The Bank is also a member of the Federal Reserve Bank (“FRB”) system and required to own FRB stock. FHLB, ACBB and FRB stock is carried at cost and periodically evaluated for impairment based on ultimate recovery of par value. Both cash and stock dividends are reported as income. The Bank owned approximately $15.0 million and $10.0 million in FHLB, ACBB and FRB stock at September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014. These amounts were reported as restricted securities in the consolidated balance sheets.
