The Company did not have any reserves on securities at September 30, 2026, as no credit related losses were identified in the Company’s September 30, 2026 analysis. At December 31, 2025, unrealized losses in the investment securities portfolio relating to debt securities totaled $35.6 million. The unrealized losses on these debt securities arose primarily due to changes in market interest rates and were not attributable to credit-related factors.

The amortized cost and estimated fair value of investment securities available for sale, other than GSE mortgage-backed securities, at September 30, 2026, are shown below by contractual maturity. Expected maturities of mortgage-backed securities will differ from contractual maturities because borrowers have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties.
