DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
As part of our interest rate risk management strategy, we have entered into interest rate swaps, which we designated as cash flow hedges, to mitigate variability in interest payments on a portion of our variable-rate debt (Note 13). Information regarding our cash flow hedges was as follows:

September 2022 interest rate swap:
300,000 3.895 %September 2025Other non-current assets2,409 — 

In January 2023, we executed a $200,000 interest rate swap that will take effect in March 2023, expires in March 2026 and carries a fixed rate of 3.91%. This agreement will replace the existing interest rate swap that matures in March 2023 and has also been designated as a cash flow hedge.

Changes in the fair values of the interest rate swaps are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss on the consolidated balance sheets and are subsequently reclassified into interest expense as interest payments are made on the variable-rate debt. The fair values of the derivatives are calculated based on the applicable reference rate curve on the date of measurement. The cash flow hedges were fully effective as of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, and their impact on consolidated net income and our consolidated statements of cash flows was not significant. We also expect that the amount that will be reclassified to interest expense during the next 12 months will not be significant.
