Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract] |
Interest Rate Swaps | Interest Rate Swaps: The Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement which became effective on March 18, 2020, with a maturity date of March 18, 2025. The notional amount of this swap agreement is fixed at $200 million. The Company previously had interest rate swap agreements associated with the February 2016 Term Loan and the June 2017 Term Loan, each of which was settled in full on November 10, 2020, following the repayment and termination of the associated term loans, and are no longer in effect. The Company’s interest rate swap agreements are executed for risk management and are not held for trading purposes. The objective of the interest rate swap agreements is to mitigate interest rate risk associated with future changes in interest rates. To accomplish this objective, the interest rate swap agreements are intended to hedge the variable cash flows associated with the variable rate term loan borrowings under the Senior Credit Facility. The interest rate swap agreements entitle the Company to receive, at specified intervals, a variable rate of interest based on LIBOR in exchange for the payment of a fixed rate of interest throughout the life of the agreement, without exchange of the underlying notional amount. The Company has designated its interest rate swap agreements as cash flow hedges and accounts for the underlying activity in accordance with hedge accounting. The interest rate swaps are presented within the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value. In accordance with hedge accounting, the gains and losses on interest rate swaps that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges are recorded as a component of Other Comprehensive Income (“OCI”), net of related income taxes, and reclassified into earnings in the same income statement line and period during which the hedged transactions affect earnings. As of September 25, 2021, amounts to be reclassified from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income/(Loss) (“AOCI”) into interest during the next twelve months are not expected to be material. No significant amounts were excluded from the assessment of cash flow hedge effectiveness as of September 25, 2021. The assets and liabilities measured at fair value related to the Company’s interest rate swaps, excluding accrued interest, were as follows (in thousands):

Credit-risk-related contingent features In accordance with the underlying interest rate swap agreements, the Company could be declared in default on its interest rate swap obligations if repayment of the underlying indebtedness (i.e., the Company’s term loans) is accelerated by the lender due to the Company’s default on such indebtedness. If the Company had breached any of the provisions in the underlying agreements at September 25, 2021, it could have been required to post full collateral or settle its obligations under the Company’s interest rate swap agreements. However, as of September 25, 2021, the Company had not breached any of these provisions or posted any collateral related to the underlying interest rate swap agreements.
