As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the number of AFS debt securities in an unrealized loss position was 80 and 84, respectively.

The Company monitors credit quality of individual AFS debt securities by evaluating a variety of methods and utilizing such information in our evaluation of the appropriateness of the allowance for credit losses for our AFS debt securities. The gross unrealized losses presented in the preceding tables were primarily attributable to interest rate movement. The Company's portfolio was comprised of securities issued, guaranteed, or otherwise supported by the U.S. government. As such, it was expected that the AFS debt securities would not be settled at a price less than the amortized cost. Further, the Company intended to hold the AFS debt securities, and it was not more-likely-than-not that it would be required to sell the AFS debt securities before recovery of amortized cost. Approximately 97% of the AFS debt securities were residential mortgage-backed securities and collateralized mortgage obligations that were issued by U.S. government-sponsored agencies, such as Ginnie Mae, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. The remaining 3% of the AFS debt securities are tax-exempt municipal securities. Accordingly, for these securities, the Company did not have allowance for credit losses as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

The amortized cost of the AFS debt securities excluded accrued interest receivables of $531 thousand and $569 thousand as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively, which are included in Accrued interest receivable on the consolidated balance sheets. For additional information on the Company's accounting policy related to securities' accrued interest receivables and impairment, see Note 1 —Business and Basis of Presentation to the consolidated financial statements in the 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, there were no pledged securities to secure public deposits, borrowing and letters of credit from the FHLB and the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, and for other purposes required or permitted by law.
