The tables above provide information about available for sale 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 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 retain 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 $952 thousand and $411 thousand, respectively, at June 30, 2025.  Accrued interest on debt securities is included in accrued interest receivable on the Company's consolidated balance sheets.

 

At June 30, 2025, there were 7 out of 7 available for sale U.S. Treasury securities, 92 out of 112 U.S. agency and mortgage-backed available for sale securities, and 91 out of 101 obligations of states and political subdivisions available for sale in an unrealized loss position. One hundred percent of the Company’s investment portfolio was considered investment grade at June 30, 2025. The weighted-average re-pricing term of the portfolio was 4.9 years at June 30, 2025. One hundred percent of the Company’s investment portfolio was considered investment grade at December 31, 2024. The weighted-average re-pricing term of the portfolio was 5.7 years at December 31, 2024. The unrealized losses at June 30, 2025 in the U.S. Treasury securities portfolio, U.S. agency and mortgage-backed securities portfolio, and obligations of states and political subdivisions portfolio were related to current interest rates above those that existed when these securities were purchased. Additionally, spreads on securities change from period to period, also impacting pricing. At June 30, 2025 the Company did not have credit concerns on any of the securities represented by these issuers.

 

The amortized cost and fair value of securities at June 30, 2025 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 June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 was as follows (in thousands):
