Unrealized gains and losses can arise from changes in interest rates or other factors, including changes in credit spreads. The Company had gross unrealized losses on below investment grade AFS securities of $4.0 million and $4.5 million as of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. The single largest unrealized loss on AFS securities was $1.2 million and $1.2 million as of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. The Company had 313 and 359 positions in an unrealized loss position as of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.
As of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, AFS securities in an unrealized loss position for 12 months or more consisted of 207 and 216 debt securities, respectively. These debt securities primarily relate to Corporate and U.S. state, municipal and political subdivisions securities, which have depressed values due primarily to an increase in interest rates since the purchase of these securities. Unrealized losses were not recognized in net income on these debt securities since the Company neither intends to sell the securities nor does it believe that it is more likely than not that it will be required to sell these securities before recovery of their cost or amortized cost basis. For securities with significant declines in value, individual security level analysis was performed utilizing underlying collateral default expectations, market data, and industry analyst reports.

The Company designates individually evaluated loans on nonaccrual status as collateral-dependent loans, as well as other loans that management of the Company designates as having higher risk. Collateral dependent loans are loans for which the repayment is expected to be provided substantially through the operation or sale of the collateral and the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty. These loans do not share common risk characteristics and are not included within the collectively evaluated loans for determining the allowance for credit losses.
