Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure
7. Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
BPLP’s agreements with derivative counterparties contain provisions whereby if BPLP defaults on the underlying indebtedness, including defaults where repayment of the indebtedness has not been accelerated by the lender, then BPLP could also be declared in default of the swap derivative obligation. As of March 31, 2025, the Company had not posted any collateral related to the agreements.
Effective Hedge Instruments
BPLP assesses the effectiveness of its derivatives both at inception and on an ongoing basis. If the hedges are deemed to be effective, the fair value is recorded in “Accumulated other comprehensive loss” in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets and is subsequently reclassified into “Interest expense” in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations in the period that the hedged forecasted transactions affect earnings. BPLP’s derivative financial instruments are cash flow hedges that are designated as effective hedges, and they are carried at their estimated fair value on a recurring basis (See Note 2). The Company did not incur any ineffectiveness during the three months ended March 31, 2025.
BPLP’s and SMBP LLC’s derivative contracts consisted of the following at March 31, 2025 (dollars in thousands) (See Note 14):

BPLP has formally documented all of its relationships between hedge instruments and hedging items, as well as its risk-management objectives and strategy for undertaking various hedge transactions. While management believes its judgments are reasonable, a change in a derivative's effectiveness as a hedge could materially affect expenses, net income (loss) and equity.
