Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES
Derivative instruments we are party to include: (i) interest rate swap agreements (which are designated as cash flow hedges) and (ii) cross-currency swap agreements (which are designated as net investment hedges).
INTEREST RATE SWAP AGREEMENTS DESIGNATED AS CASH FLOW HEDGES
We utilize interest rate swap agreements designated as cash flow hedges to limit our exposure to changes in interest rates on a portion of our floating rate indebtedness. Certain of our interest rate swap agreements have notional amounts that will increase with the underlying hedged transaction. Under our interest rate swap agreements, we receive variable rate interest payments associated with the notional amount of each interest rate swap, based upon the one-month Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR"), in exchange for the payment of fixed interest rates as specified in the interest rate swap agreements. Our interest rate swap agreements are marked to market at the end of each reporting period, representing the fair values of the interest rate swap agreements, and any changes in fair value are recognized as a component of Accumulated other comprehensive items, net. Unrealized gains are recognized as assets, while unrealized losses are recognized as liabilities.
As of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we have approximately $1,354,000 and $520,000, respectively, in notional value outstanding on our interest rate swap agreements. As of September 30, 2024, our interest rate swap agreements have maturity dates ranging from October 2025 through May 2027.
CROSS-CURRENCY SWAP AGREEMENTS DESIGNATED AS A HEDGE OF NET INVESTMENT
We utilize cross-currency swaps to hedge the variability of exchange rate impacts between the United States dollar and the Euro. As of both September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we have approximately $509,200 in notional value outstanding on cross-currency interest rate swaps. As of September 30, 2024, our cross-currency interest rate swaps have maturity dates ranging from August 2025 through February 2026.
We have designated these cross-currency swap agreements as hedges of net investments in certain of our Euro denominated subsidiaries and they require an exchange of the notional amounts at maturity. These cross-currency swap agreements are marked to market at the end of each reporting period, representing the fair values of the cross-currency swap agreements, and any changes in fair value are recognized as a component of Accumulated other comprehensive items, net. Unrealized gains are recognized as assets while unrealized losses are recognized as liabilities. The excluded component of our cross-currency swap agreements is recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive items, net and amortized to interest expense on a straight-line basis.
The fair values of derivative instruments recognized in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, by derivative instrument, are as follows:
