Index

As part of the Company’s ongoing monitoring process, management determined that the decrease in total gross unrealized losses on its Available-for-Sale securities for which an allowance for credit losses has not been recognized during the year ended December 31, 2025 is primarily attributable to interest rate movements. As of December 31, 2025, the Company did not recognize these unrealized losses in earnings because it was determined that such losses were due to non-credit factors. The Company does not intend to sell these securities and does not believe that it is more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell these securities before the anticipated recovery of the remaining amortized cost basis. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, approximately 96% and 97%, respectively, of the total of Available-for-Sale securities with gross unrealized losses were considered investment grade.
