The tables above provide information about securities that have been in an unrealized loss position for less than twelve consecutive months and securities that have been in an unrealized loss position for twelve consecutive months or more. Management evaluates securities to determine whether the impairment is due to credit-related factors or noncredit-related factors at least on a quarterly basis, and more frequently when economic or market concerns warrant such evaluation. Consideration is given to the extent to which fair the fair value is less than cost, the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, and the intent and ability of the Company to retains its investment in the security for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value. Presently, the Company does not intend to sell any of these securities, does not expect to be required to sell these securities, and expects to recover the entire amortized cost of all the securities.

 

Accrued interest receivable on securities available for sale and securities held to maturity totaled $803 thousand and $600 thousand, respectively at March 31, 2023.  Accrued interest on debt securities is included in accrued interest receivable on the Company's consolidated balance sheets.

 

At March 31, 2023, there were 3 out of 3 U.S. Treasury securities, 94 out of 109 U.S. agency and mortgage-backed securities, and 80 out of 98 obligations of states and political subdivisions in an unrealized loss position. One hundred percent of the Company’s investment portfolio is considered investment grade. The weighted-average re-pricing term of the portfolio was 6.5 years at March 31, 2023. One hundred percent of the Company’s investment portfolio was considered investment grade at December 31, 2022. The weighted-average re-pricing term of the portfolio was 6.5 years at December 31, 2022. The unrealized losses at March 31, 2023 in the U.S. Treasury securities portfolio, U.S. agency and mortgage-backed securities portfolio, obligations of states and political subdivisions portfolio, and the corporate debt securities portfolio were related to changes in market interest rates and not credit concerns of the issuers.

 

On September 1, 2022, the Bank transferred 24 securities designated as available for sale with a combined book value of $82.2 million, market value of $74.4 million, and unrealized loss of $7.8 million, to securities designated held to maturity. The unrealized loss is being amortized monthly over the life of the securities with an increase to the carrying value of securities and a decrease to the related accumulated other comprehensive loss, which is included in the shareholders’ equity section of the Company’s balance sheet. The amortization of the unrealized loss on the transferred securities totaled $316 thousand for the first quarter of 2023. The securities selected for transfer had larger potential decreases in their fair market values in higher interest rate environments than most of the other securities in the available for sale portfolio and included U.S. Treasury, agency, municipal and commercial mortgage-backed securities. The securities were transferred to mitigate the potential unfavorable impact that higher market interest rates may have on the carrying value of the securities and on the related accumulated other comprehensive loss. 

 

 

The amortized cost and fair value of securities at March 31, 2023 by contractual maturity are shown below (in thousands). Expected maturities of mortgage-backed securities will differ from contractual maturities because borrowers may have the right to prepay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties.

Federal Home Loan Bank, Federal Reserve Bank, and Community Bankers’ Bank stock are generally viewed as long-term investments and as restricted securities, which are carried at cost, because there is a minimal market for the stock. Therefore, when evaluating restricted securities for impairment, their value is based on the ultimate recoverability of the par value rather than by recognizing temporary declines in value. 

 

The composition of restricted securities at March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 was as follows (in thousands):

The amounts included in other assets for the limited partnership investments were $636 thousand and $599 thousand at March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.
