Total gross unrealized losses represented approximately 10% and 11% of the aggregate fair value of the related securities as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. Approximately 11% and 8% of these gross unrealized losses had been in a continuous loss position for less than twelve months as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. The total gross unrealized losses are comprised of 3,317 and 3,096 individual securities as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. In accordance with its policy, the Company concluded that for these securities, the gross unrealized losses as of
June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 were related to non-credit factors and therefore, did not recognize credit-related losses during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024. Additionally, the Company currently does not intend to and is not required to sell these investments prior to an anticipated recovery in value.
The Company has entered into commercial mortgage loans, collateralized by the underlying real estate, on properties located throughout the U.S. As of June 30, 2024, approximately 34% of the outstanding principal balance of commercial mortgage loans was concentrated in the states of California, Texas and Maryland. Although the Company has a diversified loan portfolio, an economic downturn could have an adverse impact on the ability of its debtors to repay their loans. The outstanding balance of commercial mortgage loans range in size from less than $0.1 million to $5.0 million as of June 30, 2024, and from less than $0.1 million to $10.0 million as of December 31, 2023.
Credit quality indicators for commercial mortgage loans are loan-to-value and debt-service coverage ratios. The loan-to-value ratio compares the principal amount of the loan to the fair value of the underlying property collateralizing the loan, and is commonly expressed as a percentage. The debt-service coverage ratio compares a property’s annual net operating income to its annual debt-service payments and is commonly expressed as a ratio. The loan-to-value and debt-service coverage ratios are generally updated annually in the fourth quarter.
The following table presents the amortized cost basis of commercial mortgage loans, excluding the allowance for credit losses, by origination year for certain key credit quality indicators at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023.
