Note 9. INTEREST RATE SWAP CONTRACTS

 

On March 26, 2020, we entered into an interest rate swap contract to hedge against interest rate volatility on our variable rate borrowings under the credit facility. The interest payments on our credit facility vary based on monthly changes in the one-month LIBOR and changes, if any, in the applicable margin, which is based on our leverage ratio as further discussed in Note 8. The interest rate swap contract has a notional amount of $150 million, a fixed rate of 0.495% and matures on April 1, 2024. This interest rate swap contract has been designated as a cash flow hedge and is expected to be highly effective.

 

The fair value of this interest rate swap contract, which is included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities and other long-term liabilities, totaled $0.8 million at March 31, 2020. See Note 12 for additional information on the fair value of the interest rate swap contract.

 

We report the unrealized gains and losses on our interest rate swap contract designated as a highly effective cash flow hedge as a component of other comprehensive income and reclassify such gains and losses into earnings in the same period during which the hedged interest expense is recorded. Net realized gains and losses from settlements of the interest rate swap contract were insignificant for the three months ended March 31, 2020.

 

We currently estimate that a loss of $0.3 million will be reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive loss into interest expense during the next 12 months; however, the actual amount that will be reclassified will vary based on changes in interest rates.

 

On April 15, 2020, we entered into two additional interest rate swap contracts, each with notional amounts of $75 million, a fixed rate of 0.38% and that mature on April 1, 2024. These interest rate swap contracts have also been designated as cash flow hedges and are expected to be highly effective.
