The Company did not sell or recognize any gain or loss for any securities for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025.

Available-for-sale securities having a market value of $86.0 million and $54.8 million at September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively, were pledged to secure public deposits. These securities had an amortized cost of $95.9 million and $58.6 million at September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively.

The following tables summarize the fair value of securities available-for-sale at September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 and the corresponding amounts of gross unrealized losses. Management uses the valuations as of month-end in determining when securities are in an unrealized loss position. Therefore, a security’s market value could have exceeded its amortized cost on other days during the prior twelve-month period.

The Company had 160 and 137 securities in an unrealized loss position as of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. The Company has evaluated available-for-sale securities in an unrealized loss position for credit related impairment at September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 and concluded no impairment existed based on a combination of factors, which included: (1) the securities are of high credit quality, (2) unrealized losses are primarily the result of market volatility and increases in market interest rates, (3) the contractual terms of the investments do not permit the issuer(s) to settle the securities at a price less than the par value of each investment, (4) issuers continue to make timely principal and interest payments, and (5) the Company does not intend to sell any of the investments and the accounting standard of “more likely than not” has not been met for the Company to be required to sell any of the investments before recovery of its amortized cost basis. As such, there was no allowance for credit losses on available-for-sale securities at September 30, 2026.

​

The table below summarizes the contractual maturities of our available-for-sale investment securities as of September 30, 2026. Issuers may have the right to call or prepay certain obligations, and as such, the expected maturities of our securities may occur sooner than the scheduled contractual maturities presented below.

Held-to-maturity securities having a market value of $52.4 million and $45.2 million at September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively, were pledged to secure public deposits. These securities had an amortized cost of $60.0 million and $49.8 million at September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively.

The Company evaluates the credit risk of its held-to-maturity securities on at least a quarterly basis. The Company estimates expected credit losses on held-to-maturity securities on an individual basis based on a probability of default/loss given default methodology primarily using security-level credit ratings. The primary indicators of credit quality for the Company’s held-to-maturity portfolio are security type and credit rating, which is influenced by a number of factors including obligor cash flow, geography, seniority, and others.

The Company’s held-to-maturity securities with credit risk were comprised of municipal bonds and had a credit rating of AA or better as of September 30, 2026. All other held-to-maturity securities are covered by the explicit or implied guarantee of the United States government or one of its agencies. The Company did not have an allowance for credit losses on held-to-maturity securities as of September 30, 2026 or December 31, 2025.
