The Company has elected to exclude accrued interest receivable, totaling $457 thousand and $669 thousand at June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively from the amortized cost basis of securities. The deferred tax asset on the securities portfolio at June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 was $1.6 million and $1.4 million, respectively, and is included in Other Assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

 

In March 2025, balance sheet repositioning transactions were executed. The Bank sold available for sale securities with an amortized cost balance of $99.2 million and reinvested $66.0 million into purchases of available for sale securities. The sale of securities resulted in a net realized pre-tax loss of $12.4 million recognized during the six months ended June 30, 2025. There were no sales of available for sale securities during the three months ended June 30, 2025 or the three and six months ended June 30, 2026.

The reference point for determining when securities are in an unrealized loss position is month end. As such, it is possible that a security's market value exceeded its amortized cost on other days during the past twelve-month period.

There were 53 and 39 debt securities with a fair value below the amortized cost basis, totaling $105.4 million and $46.1 million of aggregate fair value as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 respectively. The Company concluded that a credit loss does not exist in its securities portfolio at June 30, 2026 based on the fact that (1) changes in fair value were caused by non-credit-related factors, primarily fluctuations in interest rates, (2) securities with unrealized losses had generally high credit quality, (3) as of June 30, 2026, the Company intends to hold these investments in debt securities to maturity and it is more-likely-than-not that the Company will not be required to sell these investments before a recovery of its investment, and (4) issuers have continued to make timely payments of principal and interest. Additionally, the Company’s mortgage-backed securities, collateralized

mortgage obligations, U.S. treasury securities, and obligations of U.S. government corporations and agencies are entirely issued by either U.S. government agencies or U.S. government-sponsored enterprises. Collectively, these entities provide a guarantee, which is either explicitly or implicitly supported by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government, that investors in such securities will receive timely principal and interest payments.

Securities having carrying values of $4.0 million, $3.0 million and $84.6 million at June 30, 2026 were pledged as security for trust accounts, a deposit relationship and for borrowing capacity at the Federal Reserve Bank ("FRB") discount window, respectively.

The composition of restricted investments at June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 was as follows:
