| Investments | Note 2. Investments
The following tables set forth the estimated fair value, gross unrealized gains, gross unrealized losses, allowance for credit losses and cost or amortized cost of the Company’s investments in fixed
maturity and equity securities, aggregated by type and industry, as of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024. Fixed maturity securities were comprised of the following:
Bonds having an amortized cost of $15,376 and $15,065 and included in the tables above were on deposit with insurance regulatory authorities at December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, in accordance with statutory requirements. In addition, the Company maintains cash and cash equivalents on deposit with insurance regulatory authorities of $0 and $226 at December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Additionally, bonds having an amortized cost of $8,861 and $9,209 and included in the tables above were pledged as collateral to FHLB at December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
Equity securities were comprised of the following:
The carrying value and amortized cost of the Company’s investments in fixed maturity securities at December 31, 2025 and 2024 by contractual maturity were as follows. Actual maturities may differ from contractual maturities because issuers may call or prepay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties.
The following tables present the Company’s unrealized loss aging for securities by type and length of time the security was in a continuous unrealized loss position as of December 31, 2025 and 2024.
Analysis of Securities in Unrealized Loss Positions
As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, there were 210 and 213 securities, respectively, in an unrealized loss position which primarily included certain of the Company’s investments in fixed maturity securities within the utilities and telecom, financial services, other diversified business and other diversified consumer sectors. With the exception of the other than temporary impairment loss noted below, the unrealized losses on the Company’s fixed maturity securities investments have been primarily related to general market changes in interest rates and/or the levels of credit spreads rather than specific concerns with the issuer’s ability to pay interest and repay principal.
At each reporting date, the Company evaluates available-for-sale fixed maturity securities whose fair values are below their amortized cost bases. The Company first determines whether it intends
to sell a security or whether it is more likely than not that it will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis, which may be at maturity. An intent to sell exists when the Company has made a decision to sell a
security. If either condition is met, any existing allowance for credit losses (“ACL”) is written off, the security’s amortized cost basis is written down to fair value and any incremental impairment loss is recognized in earnings within realized
investment gains (losses).
If the Company does not intend to sell a security and it is not more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the security before recovery, the Company evaluates whether any
portion of the decline in fair value is attributable to credit-related factors. A credit loss exists when the present value of the cash flows expected to be collected is less than the security’s amortized cost basis. Credit-related losses are
recognized in earnings through an ACL, limited to the amount by which the security’s amortized cost basis exceeds its fair value. Unrealized losses attributable to noncredit factors are recognized in other comprehensive income, net of applicable
income taxes.
As part of this evaluation, the Company reviews each security in an unrealized loss position to determine whether the decline in fair value is attributable to general market factors, including
changes in interest rates and market credit spreads, or to issuer-specific credit factors. Securities with significant declines in fair value or other indicators of potential credit deterioration are subject to a more detailed credit review.
For corporate issuers, the Company evaluates their assets, business profile including industry dynamics and competitive positioning, financial statements and other available financial data. For
non-corporate issuers, the Company analyzes all reasonably available sources of credit support, including issuer-specific factors. The Company utilizes information available in the public domain and, for certain private placement issuers, from
consultations with the issuers directly. The Company also considers ratings from Nationally Recognized Statistical Rating Organizations, as well as the specific characteristics of the security it owns including seniority in the issuer’s capital
structure, covenant protections, or other relevant features. From these reviews, the Company evaluates the issuers’ continued ability to service the Company’s investment through payment of interest and principal.
During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company recognized an impairment loss of approximately $488 related to an asset-backed security. Based on management’s evaluation of the underlying collateral performance, projected cash flows, and market conditions, the Company concluded that recovery of the security’s amortized cost basis was not expected. Accordingly, the Company recorded a full write-down of the investment to its estimated realizable value, resulting in a charge to realized investment losses of $488. The Company intends to sell the security.
For the other fixed maturity securities in an unrealized loss position, the Company similarly concluded that the unrealized losses were attributed to noncredit factors. Based on its credit
analyses, the Company believes that the issuers have the ability to continue servicing their obligations. The Company does not intend to sell these securities, and it is not more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell them
before recovery of their amortized cost bases. Accordingly, the related unrealized losses remain in AOCI. Assuming no credit-related deterioration occurs, these unrealized losses are generally expected to diminish as the securities approach
maturity.
The Company had no ACL on its available-for-sale fixed maturity securities as of December 31, 2025 and 2024.
Investment income was earned from the following sources:
Included in the net realized investment losses for the year ended December 31, 2025, was an impairment of a fixed maturity security totaling $488. The impairment resulted from a write-down of a security to its market value, which was recognized in earnings during the period. There were no impairments recognized for the year ended December 31, 2024.
A summary of realized investment gains (losses) follows:
Proceeds from the sales of available-for-sale fixed maturity securities were as follows:
There were no proceeds from the sales of equity securities during 2025 and 2024.
Proceeds from the sales of other invested assets were as follows:
Sales of available-for-sale securities in 2025 were primarily a result of improving the overall risk versus return profile of the portfolio. In
addition, the Company sold its interest in a certain limited liability company held as other invested assets to a third-party in 2024.
The following table presents the portion of unrealized gains (losses) related to equity securities still held for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024.
The Company’s bond portfolio included 99% investment grade securities, as defined by the National Association of Insurance Commissioners (“NAIC”), at December 31, 2025 and 2024.
Variable Interest Entities
The Company holds passive interests in a number of entities that are considered to be variable interest entities (“VIEs”) under GAAP guidance. The Company’s VIE interests principally consist of interests in limited partnerships and limited liability companies formed for the purpose of achieving diversified equity returns. The Company’s VIE interests, carried as a part of other invested assets, totaled $6,037 and $6,616 at December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The Company’s VIE interests, carried as a part of investment in unconsolidated trusts, totaled $1,238 at December 31, 2025 and 2024.
The Company does not have power over the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of these VIEs and thus is not the primary beneficiary. Therefore, the Company has not consolidated these VIEs. The Company’s involvement with each VIE is limited to its direct ownership interest in the VIE. The Company has no arrangements with any of the VIEs to provide other financial support to or on behalf of the VIE other than future funding commitments. The Company’s maximum loss exposure relative to these investments was limited to the carrying value of the Company’s investment in the VIEs, which amount to $7,275 and $7,854, at December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company had outstanding commitments totaling $2,200 and $2,200, respectively, whereby the Company is committed to fund these investments and may be called by the partnership during the commitment period to fund the purchase of new investments and partnership expenses.
