Derivatives and Hedging Activities Derivatives and Hedging Activities
The Company’s objectives in using interest rate derivatives are to add stability to interest expense and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements. To accomplish this objective, the Company primarily uses interest rate swaps as part of its interest rate risk management strategy. During 2021 and 2020, such derivatives have been used to hedge the variable cash flows associated with existing variable-rate debt.
For derivatives designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk, the gain or loss on the derivative is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income ("OCI") and subsequently reclassified into interest expense in the same period(s) during which the hedged transaction affects earnings, as documented at hedge inception in accordance with the Company’s accounting policy election. Amounts reported in accumulated OCI related to derivatives will be reclassified to interest expense as interest payments are made on the Company’s variable-rate debt. Over the next 12 months, the Company estimates that an additional $25.8 million will be reclassified as an increase to interest expense.
In May 2021, the Company entered into additional interest rate swap agreements to match the terms of the New Term Loan and effectively extend the termination date to March 31, 2025. As of June 30, 2021, the Company had nine interest rate swaps with a total net hedged notional amount of $1.2 billion. Of the nine interest rate swaps, three are pay-fixed, receive 1 mo. LIBOR (subject to a minimum of 0.75%) interest rate swaps designated in cash flow hedging relationships with a total notional amount of $1.2 billion and a termination date of March 31, 2025. The remaining six interest rate swaps are undesignated and consist of three pay-fixed, receive 1 mo. LIBOR (subject to a minimum of 1.00%) interest rate swaps and three pay 1 mo. LIBOR (subject to a minimum of 1.00%), receive-fixed interest rate swaps with a termination date of November 30, 2023. The pay-floating, receive-fixed swaps are designed to economically offset the undesignated pay-fixed, receive-floating swaps.
Concurrently with the May 2021 transactions, the four previously existing interest rate swap positions were amended, de-designated or terminated and replaced with the new interest rate swaps discussed above. The Company voluntarily de-designated an aggregate notional amount of $435 million (the effects of which are offset by the pay-floating, receive-fixed interest rate swaps) and terminated an aggregate notional amount of $435 million. No cash was exchanged between the Company and the counterparties due to the transactions described above, therefore the non-cash transactions had no impact on the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. The amount of unrealized losses recorded in OCI related to the de-designated and terminated notional amounts at the time of the de-designation and termination was $55.0 million. This amount will be amortized to interest expense over the remaining term of the original interest rate swaps. The liability of the de-designated and terminated notional amounts was blended into the fixed rate of the new pay-fixed interest rate swaps.
The pay-fixed, receive floating interest rate swaps entered into in May 2021 did not meet the requirements to be considered derivatives in their entirety as a result of the financing component. Accordingly, the swaps are considered hybrid instruments, consisting of a financing element treated as a debt instrument and an embedded at-market derivative that was designated as a cash flow hedge.
Within the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets, the financing elements treated as debt instruments described above are carried at amortized cost and the embedded at-market derivatives and the undesignated swaps are recorded at fair value. The cash flows related to the portion treated as debt are classified as financing activities in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows while the
portion treated as an at-market derivative are classified as operating activities. Cash settlements related to the undesignated swaps will offset and are classified as operating activities in the condensed consolidated cash flows.
