The amortized cost and estimated fair value of our fixed maturity securities at June 30, 2026 are shown below by remaining contractual term to maturity. Expected maturities may differ from contractual maturities because borrowers may have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties.

(1)The contractual maturities of our available-for-sale securities are included in the table. However, given our intent to sell certain impaired securities, these securities are classified as current assets in our Consolidated Statement of Financial Position at June 30, 2026. (2)This includes an estimated fair value of $44.4 million of securities lent under a securities lending agreement. The below securities have been evaluated for credit impairment using criteria described within Note 2, "Significant Accounting Policies, of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements" included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 as filed with the SEC on February 23, 2026. The gross unrealized losses are primarily attributable to changes in interest rates and are not deemed to be credit-related. We do not have the intent to sell these securities and it is more likely than not that we would not be required to sell these securities before the anticipated recovery of the amortized cost basis.

(1)Limited partnership (losses) income includes both realized gains (losses) and unrealized valuation changes. Our limited partnership investments are included in the line item "Other assets, net" in the Consolidated Statements of Financial Position. We have made no new significant limited partnership commitments since 2006, and the balance of limited partnership investments is expected to decline over time as additional distributions are received. Net realized and unrealized investment gains (losses) Realized and unrealized gains (losses) on investments were as follows: | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Three months ended June 30, | | Six months ended June 30, | | | (in thousands) | | 2026 | | 2025 | | 2026 | | 2025 | | | Available-for-sale securities: | | | | | | | | | | | Gross realized gains | | $ | 3,074 | | | $ | 331 | | | $ | 4,095 | | | $ | 680 | | | | Gross realized losses | | (4,037) | | | (762) | | | (4,909) | | | (1,373) | | | | Net realized losses on available-for-sale securities | | (963) | | | (431) | | | (814) | | | (693) | | | | Equity securities | | 1,520 | | | 910 | | | 606 | | | 1,669 | | | | Miscellaneous | | 0 | | | 0 | | | 0 | | | 5 | | | | Net realized and unrealized investment gains (losses) | | $ | 557 | | | $ | 479 | | | $ | (208) | | | $ | 981 | | |
The portion of net unrealized gains (losses) recognized during the reporting period related to equity securities held at the reporting date is calculated as follows: | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Three months ended June 30, | | Six months ended June 30, | | | (in thousands) | | 2026 | | 2025 | | 2026 | | 2025 | | | Equity securities: | | | | | | | | | | | Net gains recognized during the period | | $ | 1,520 | | | $ | 910 | | | $ | 606 | | | $ | 1,669 | | | | Less: net gains (losses) recognized on securities sold | | 32 | | | 15 | | | (7) | | | 149 | | | | Net unrealized gains recognized on securities held at reporting date | | $ | 1,488 | | | $ | 895 | | | $ | 613 | | | $ | 1,520 | | |

Securities lending transactions As of June 30, 2026, the estimated fair value of loaned securities was $69.9 million, consisting of $44.4 million of available- for-sale securities and $25.5 million of equity securities. As of December 31, 2025, the estimated fair value of loaned securities was $64.5 million consisting of $44.4 million of available-for-sale securities and $20.1 million of equity securities. Cash collateral received in connection with these securities lending transactions totaled $63.2 million and $61.9 million as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 respectively. The cash collateral was reinvested in cash equivalents and is included with "Cash and cash equivalents" in our Consolidated Statements of Financial Position. We also received $9.1 million and $4.5 million of non-cash collateral as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively, which we are not permitted to sell or repledge. There were no securities lending transactions outstanding with contractual maturities extending beyond one year from the reporting date.
If we have to return cash collateral on short notice, we may have difficulty selling investments in a timely manner, be forced to sell them for less than we otherwise would have been able to realize, or both. In addition, in the event of such forced sale, for securities in an unrealized loss position, realized losses would be incurred on securities sold and impairments would be incurred, if there is a need to sell securities prior to recovery, which may negatively impact our financial condition.
