The Company had 24 investment securities, consisting of 11 tax-exempt state and municipal obligations, and 13 mortgage-backed securities that were in unrealized loss positions at June 30, 2016. Of these securities, one tax-exempt state and municipal obligation and five mortgage-backed securities were in a continuous unrealized loss position for twelve months or more. Management does not consider the unrealized losses on the debt securities, as a result of changes in interest rates, to be OTTI based on historical evidence that indicates the cost of these securities is recoverable within a reasonable period of time in relation to normal cyclical changes in the market rates of interest. Moreover, because there has been no material change in the credit quality of the issuers or other events or circumstances that may cause a significant adverse impact on the fair value of these securities, and management does not intend to sell these securities and it is unlikely that the Company will be required to sell these securities before recovery of their amortized cost basis, which may be maturity, the Company does not consider the unrealized losses to be OTTI at June 30, 2016. There was no OTTI recognized for the three or six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015.

The Company had 88 investment securities, consisting of 38 tax-exempt state and municipal obligations, one taxable state and municipal obligation, one U.S. Treasury security, 12 U.S. Government-sponsored enterprise securities and 36 mortgage-backed securities that were in unrealized loss positions at December 31, 2015. Of these securities, seven mortgage-backed securities, four tax-exempt state and municipal securities, and one taxable state and municipal obligation were in a continuous unrealized loss position for twelve months or more.
