DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS
During the first quarter of 2023, we entered into two interest rate swap arrangements with an aggregate notional amount of $125.0 million that effectively fixed the interest at 4.73% for the 2023 Term Loan beginning on July 21, 2023 through the 2023 Term Loan’s maturity date of January 10, 2025.

During the 2024 Quarter, we entered into two forward interest rate swap arrangements with an aggregate notional amount of $150.0 million beginning on January 10, 2025 through January 10, 2026. These forward interest rate swap arrangements effectively fix a portion of our variable rate debt based on an adjusted daily SOFR at 4.72% (subject to applicable interest rate margins).

The interest rate swap arrangements are recorded at fair value in accordance with GAAP, based on discounted cash flow methodologies and observable inputs. We record the effective portion of changes in fair value of the cash flow hedges in Other comprehensive income (loss). We assess the effectiveness of a cash flow hedge both at inception and on an ongoing basis. If a cash flow hedge is no longer expected to be effective, hedge accounting is discontinued. Hedge ineffectiveness of our cash flow hedges is recorded in earnings.

The fair values of the interest rate swaps as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, were as follows (in thousands):

We record interest rate swaps on our consolidated balance sheets within Prepaid expenses and other assets when in a net asset position and within Accounts payable and other liabilities when in a net liability position. The net unrealized gains and losses on the effective swaps were recognized in Other comprehensive income (loss), as follows (in thousands):

Amounts reported in Accumulated other comprehensive loss related to effective cash flow hedges will be reclassified to interest expense as interest payments are made on our variable-rate debt. During the next twelve months, we estimate that an additional $0.9 million related to our outstanding interest rate swap arrangements will be reclassified as a net decrease to interest expense.

The losses reclassified from Accumulated other comprehensive loss into interest expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, were as follows (in thousands):

During the next twelve months, we estimate that an additional $2.0 million related to the previously settled interest rate swap arrangements will be reclassified as an increase to interest expense.

We have agreements with each of our derivative counterparties that contain a provision whereby we could be declared in default on our derivative obligations if repayment of the underlying indebtedness is accelerated by the lender due to our default on the indebtedness. As of June 30, 2024, the fair value of derivative assets, including accrued interest, was $1.0 million and the fair value of derivative liabilities was $0.5 million. As of June 30, 2024, we have not posted any collateral related to these agreements.

Derivative instruments expose us to credit risk in the event of non-performance by the counterparty under the terms of the interest rate hedge agreements. We believe that we minimize our credit risk on these transactions by dealing with major, creditworthy financial institutions. We monitor the credit ratings of counterparties and our exposure to any single entity, thus minimizing our credit risk concentration.
