Management evaluates securities for other-than-temporary impairment at least on a quarterly basis, and may do so more frequently when economic or market concerns warrant such evaluation. Consideration is given to (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) the intent of Financial, if any, to sell the security; (4) whether Financial more likely than not will be required to sell the security before recovering its cost; and (5) whether Financial does not expect to recover the security’s entire amortized cost basis (even if Financial does not intend to sell the security).

Note 7 – Securities (continued)

At June 30, 2018, the Company did not consider the unrealized losses as other-than-temporary losses due to the nature of the securities involved. As of June 30, 2018, the Bank owned 60 securities in an unrealized loss position that were being evaluated for other than temporary impairment. Eleven of these securities were S&P rated AAA, 46 were rated AA and three were rated A. As of June 30, 2018, 33 of these securities were direct obligations of the U.S. government or government sponsored entities, 22 were municipal issues, and five were investments in domestic corporate issued securities.

Based on the analysis performed by management as mandated by the Bank’s investment policy, management believes the default risk to be minimal. Because management does not intend to sell and it is likely that management will not be required to sell the securities prior to their anticipated recovery, and the decline in fair value is largely due to change in interest rates and other market conditions, no declines currently are deemed to be other-than-temporary.

There were no gross gains on available-for-sale securities during the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2018 compared to $52 and $62 for the same respective periods in 2017. There were no losses on sales of available-for-sale securities and no sales of held-to-maturity securities during the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2018 and 2017.
