Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract] |
Derivatives | . Derivatives Cash Flow Hedges We manage exposure to changes in market interest rates. We use interest rate swap agreements and forward swaps to reduce our exposure to changes in interest rates. Our use of derivative instruments is limited to highly effective interest rate swaps to hedge the risk of changes in cash flows (future interest payments) attributable to changes in secured overnight financing rate ("SOFR") swap rates with the designated benchmark interest rate being hedged on certain of our SOFR indexed variable rate debt. The interest rate swaps effectively fix our interest payments on certain SOFR indexed variable rate debt through July 2032. We monitor our positions and the credit ratings of our counterparties and do not currently anticipate non-performance by the counterparties. Interest rate swap agreements are not entered into for trading purposes. These fair values are determined using pricing valuation models which include broker quotes for which significant inputs are observable. They include adjustments for counterparty credit quality and other deal-specific factors, where appropriate, and are classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. The derivative fair values reflected in prepaid expense in the consolidated balance sheet were as follows:

(Gains) or losses recognized in income on interest rate derivatives are recorded as interest expense in the consolidated statements of operations. During the first six months of fiscal 2025 and 2024, we recognized a (decrease)/increase in the fair value of our cash flow hedges of $0.2 million and $7.2 million, respectively, net of taxes. During the first six months of fiscal 2025 and 2024, we reclassified $8.2 million and $1.9 million, respectively, from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) (“AOCI”) to interest expense, net of tax. As of September 30, 2024, we expect to reclassify $5.8 million of net gains on interest rate contracts from AOCI to earnings as interest expense over the next 12 months. Economic Hedges We use derivatives to economically hedge our equity market exposure to indexed annuity products sold by our Life Insurance company. These contracts earn a return for the contract holder based on the change in the value of the S&P 500 index between annual index point dates. We buy and sell listed equity and index call options and call option spreads. The credit risk is with the party in which the options are written. The net option price is paid up front and there are no additional cash requirements or additional contingent liabilities. These contracts are held at fair value on our balance sheet. These derivative instruments are included in Investments, other on the consolidated balance sheets. The fair values of these call options are determined based on quoted market prices from the relevant exchange and are classified as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy. Net gains recognized in net investment and interest income for the first six months of September 30, 2024 and 2023 were $6.5 million and $4.7 million, respectively.
