Fair Value Measurements |
Fair Value Measurements | Note 14 - Fair Value Measurements The Company measures the fair value of financial instruments based on the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. As a basis for considering market participant assumptions in fair value measurements, a fair value hierarchy distinguishes between market participant assumptions based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity and the reporting entity’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions. In accordance with the fair value hierarchy, Level 1 assets/liabilities are valued based on quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets, Level 2 assets/liabilities are valued based on quoted prices in active markets for similar instruments, on quoted prices in less active or inactive markets, or on other “observable” market inputs and Level 3 assets/liabilities are valued based significantly on “unobservable” market inputs. The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, escrow, deposits and other assets and receivables, and accrued expenses and other liabilities are not measured at fair value on a recurring basis, but are considered to be recorded at amounts that approximate fair value. At June 30, 2014, the $289,447,000 estimated fair value of the Company’s mortgages payable is more than their carrying value by approximately $5,074,000 assuming a blended market interest rate of 4.8% based on the 9.2 year weighted average remaining term of the mortgages. At December 31, 2013, the $283,142,000 estimated fair value of the Company’s mortgages payable is more than their carrying value by approximately $5,097,000 assuming a blended market interest rate of 5% based on the 9.0 year weighted average remaining term of the mortgages. At June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the $36,850,000 and $23,250,000, respectively, carrying amount of the Company’s line of credit approximates its fair value. The fair value of the Company’s mortgages payable and line of credit are estimated using unobservable inputs such as available market information and discounted cash flow analysis based on borrowing rates the Company believes it could obtain with similar terms and maturities. These fair value measurements fall within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. Considerable judgment is necessary to interpret market data and develop estimated fair value. The use of different market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies may have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts. Financial Instruments Measured at Fair Value The fair value of the Company’s available-for-sale securities and derivative financial instruments was determined using the following inputs (amounts in thousands):

The Company does not own any financial instruments that are classified as Level 3. Available-for-sale securities At June 30, 2014, the Company’s available-for-sale securities included a $25,200 investment in other equity securities (included in other assets on the consolidated balance sheet). The aggregate cost of these securities was $5,300 and at June 30, 2014, the unrealized gain was $19,900. Such unrealized gains were included in accumulated other comprehensive loss on the consolidated balance sheet. Fair values are approximated based on current market quotes from financial sources that track such securities. In May 2014, the Company sold to Gould Investors L.P., a related party, 37,081 shares of BRT Realty Trust, a related party, for proceeds of $266,000 (based on the average of the closing prices for the 30 days preceding the sale). The cost of these shares was $132,000 and the Company realized a gain on sale of $134,000, of which $132,000 was reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive loss on the consolidated balance sheet into earnings. Derivative financial instruments Fair values are approximated using widely accepted valuation techniques including discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of the derivatives. This analysis reflects the contractual terms of the derivatives, including the period to maturity, and uses observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves and implied volatilities. Although the Company has determined that the majority of the inputs used to value its derivatives fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the credit valuation adjustments associated with it use Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads, to evaluate the likelihood of default by the Company and its counterparty. As of June 30, 2014, the Company has assessed the significance of the impact of the credit valuation adjustments on the overall valuation of its derivative positions and has determined that the credit valuation adjustments are not significant to the overall valuation of its derivatives. As a result, the Company determined that its derivative valuation is classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. As of June 30, 2014, the Company had 15 interest rate derivatives outstanding, all of which were interest rate swaps, related to 15 outstanding mortgage loans with an aggregate $77,623,000 notional amount and mature between 2014 and 2024 (weighted average maturity of 6.55 years). Such interest rate swaps, all of which were designated as cash flow hedges, converted Libor based variable rate mortgages to fixed annual rate mortgages (with interest rates ranging from 3.55% to 6.50% and a weighted average interest rate of 4.97% at June 30, 2014). The fair value of the Company’s derivatives designated as hedging instruments in asset and liability positions reflected as other assets or other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets were $112,000 and $2,206,000, respectively, at June 30, 2014, and $265,000 and $774,000, respectively, at December 31, 2013. Two of the Company’s unconsolidated joint ventures, in which a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company is a 50% partner, had an interest rate derivative outstanding at June 30, 2014 with a notional amount of $3,756,000. This interest rate derivative has an interest rate of 5.81% and matures in April 2018. The following table presents the effect of the Company’s derivative financial instruments on the consolidated statement of income for the periods presented (amounts in thousands):

No gain or loss was recognized with respect to hedge ineffectiveness or to amounts excluded from effectiveness testing on the Company’s cash flow hedges for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013. During the twelve months ending June 30, 2015, the Company estimates an additional $1,572,000 will be reclassified from other comprehensive income (loss) as an increase to interest expense. The derivative agreements in effect at June 30, 2014 provide that if the wholly owned subsidiary of the Company which is a party to the agreement defaults or is capable of being declared in default on any of its indebtedness, then a default can be declared on such subsidiary’s derivative obligation. In addition, the Company is a party to one of the derivative agreements and if the subsidiary defaults on the loan subject to such agreement and if there are swap breakage losses on account of the derivative being terminated early, the Company could be held liable for interest rate swap breakage losses, if any. As of June 30, 2014, the fair value of the derivatives in a liability position, including accrued interest, and excluding any adjustments for nonperformance risk, was approximately $2,379,000. In the unlikely event that the Company breaches any of the contractual provisions of the derivative contracts, it would be required to settle its obligations thereunder at their termination liability value of $2,379,000. Such amount is included in accrued expenses and other liabilities at June 30, 2014.
