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).

At March 31, 2022 the Company did not consider the unrealized losses as other-than-temporary losses due to the nature of the securities involved. As of March 31, 2022, the Bank owned 108 securities in an unrealized loss position that were being evaluated for other than temporary impairment. Of the securities, 44 were S&P rated AAA, 57 were rated AA, six were rated A, and one was rated BBB. As of March 31, 2022, 47 of these securities were municipal issues, 53 were backed by the US government, and eight were issues of publicly traded domestic corporations.

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 sales of available-for-sale securities during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021.
