Fair Value Measurements |
Fair Value Measurements | Note 15 — 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 (excluding available-for-sale securities), dividends payable, and accrued expenses and other liabilities (excluding interest rate swaps), are not measured at fair value on a recurring basis, but are considered to be recorded at amounts that approximate fair value. At March 31, 2016, the $336,424,000 estimated fair value of the Company’s mortgages payable is more than their $325,186,000 carrying value (before netting unamortized deferred financing costs) by approximately $11,238,000 assuming a blended market interest rate of 4.01% based on the 9.7 year weighted average remaining term of the mortgages. At December 31, 2015, the $346,614,000 estimated fair value of the Company’s mortgages payable is more than their $334,428,000 carrying value (before netting unamortized deferred financing costs) by approximately $12,186,000 assuming a blended market interest rate of 4.07% based on the 8.9 year weighted average remaining term of the mortgages. At March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the carrying amount of the Company’s line of credit (before netting unamortized deferred financing costs) of $29,850,000 and $18,250,000, respectively, 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. Fair Value on a Recurring Basis The fair value of the Company’s available-for-sale securities and derivative financial instruments was determined using the following inputs (amounts in thousands):

|  | December 31, 2015 |  | 4,299 |  | — |  | 4,299 |
The Company does not own any financial instruments that are classified as Level 3. Available-for-sale securities At March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company’s available-for-sale securities included an investment in equity securities of $34,000 and $32,000, respectively (included in other assets on the consolidated balance sheets). The aggregate cost of these securities was $5,300, and at March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the unrealized gain was $28,600 and $27,000, respectively. Such unrealized gains are included in accumulated other comprehensive loss on the consolidated balance sheets. Fair values are approximated based on current market quotes from financial sources that track such securities. Derivative financial instruments The Company’s objective in using interest rate swaps is to add stability to interest expense and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements. The Company does not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes. 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 March 31, 2016, 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 March 31, 2016, the Company had entered into 24 interest rate derivatives, all of which were interest rate swaps, related to 24 outstanding mortgage loans with an aggregate $130,882,000 notional amount and mature between 2018 and 2028 (weighted average remaining maturity of 8.1 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 3.38% to 5.75% and a weighted average interest rate of 4.26% at March 31, 2016). 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 $0 and $8,203,000, respectively, at March 31, 2016, and $0 and $4,299,000, respectively, at December 31, 2015. Three of the Company’s unconsolidated joint ventures, in which wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company are 50% partners, had two interest rate derivatives outstanding at March 31, 2016 with an aggregate $10,930,000 notional amount. These interest rate swaps, which were designated as cash flow hedges, have interest rates of 3.49% and 5.81% and mature in 2022 and 2018, respectively. The following table presents the effect of the Company’s derivative financial instruments on the consolidated statements of income for the periods presented (amounts in thousands):
|  | Three Months Ended March 31, |
|  | 2016 |  | 2015 |
One Liberty Properties, Inc. and Consolidated Subsidiaries |  |  |  |  |
Amount of loss recognized on derivatives in Other comprehensive loss |  | $ | (4,502 | ) | $ | (1,623 | )
Amount of loss reclassification from Accumulated other comprehensive loss into Interest expense |  | (602 | ) | (889 | )
Unconsolidated Joint Ventures (Company’s share) |  |  |  |  |
Amount of loss recognized on derivatives in Other comprehensive loss |  | (130 | ) | (71 | )
Amount of loss reclassification from Accumulated other comprehensive loss into Equity in earnings of unconsolidated joint ventures |  | (25 | ) | (22 | )
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 months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015. During the twelve months ending March 31, 2017, the Company estimates an additional $2,260,000 will be reclassified from other Accumulated comprehensive loss as an increase to Interest expense and $90,000 will be reclassified from Accumulated other comprehensive loss as a decrease to Equity in earnings of unconsolidated joint ventures. The derivative agreements in effect at March 31, 2016 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 there is a default by the subsidiary on the loan subject to the derivative agreement to which the Company is a party and if there are swap breakage losses on account of the derivative being terminated early, then the Company could be held liable for such swap breakage losses, if any. During the three months ended March 31, 2016, the Company terminated two interest rate swaps in connection with the early payoff of the related mortgages, and during the three months ended March 31, 2015, the Company terminated one interest rate swaps in connection with the sale of its Cherry Hill, New Jersey property. The Company accelerated the reclassification of amounts in other comprehensive loss to earnings as a result of these hedged forecasted transactions being terminated. During the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, the accelerated amounts were a loss of $24,000 and $472,000, respectively, which is included in Prepayment costs on debt on the consolidated statements of income. As of March 31, 2016, the fair value of the derivatives in the liability position, including accrued interest and excluding any adjustments for nonperformance risk, was approximately $8,745,000. 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 $8,745,000. This termination liability value, net of $542,000 adjustments for accrued interest and nonperformance risk, or $8,203,000, is included in Accrued expenses and other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet at March 31, 2016.
