Financial Instruments: Derivatives and Hedging | 5. Financial Instruments: Derivatives and Hedging ​ On July 22, 2016, the Company entered into interest rate swap transactions that fixed the interest rate for the period beginning on September 27, 2017 and ended on September 27, 2021 on the Former BofA Term Loan (the “2017 Interest Rate Swap”). On March 7, 2019, the Company entered into interest rate swap transactions that fixed the interest rate for the period beginning on March 29, 2019 and ended on November 30, 2021 on a $100 million portion of the JPM Term Loan (the “2019 JPM Interest Rate Swap”). On February 20, 2019, the Company entered into interest rate swap transactions that fixed the interest rate for the period beginning August 26, 2020 and ending January 31, 2024 on the BMO Term Loan (the “2019 BMO Interest Rate Swap”). The variable rates that were fixed under the 2019 BMO Interest Rate Swap is described in Note 4. On February 8, 2023, the Company terminated the 2019 BMO Interest Rate Swap applicable to the BMO Term Loan and, on February 10, 2023, the Company received an aggregate of approximately $4.3 million as a result of such terminations, of which approximately $0.1 million related to interest receivable. The variable rates that were fixed under the 2017 Interest Rate Swap, the 2019 JPM Interest Rate Swap and the 2019 BMO Interest Rate Swap (collectively referred to as the “Interest Rate Swaps”) are described in Note 4. As of December 31, 2023, there were no derivative instruments. ​ On June 4, 2021, the Company paid approximately $1.2 million to terminate the 2019 JPM Interest Rate Swap that was scheduled to mature on November 30, 2021 and approximately $0.6 million to terminate a portion of the 2019 BMO Interest Rate Swap that was scheduled to mature on November 30, 2021. As a result of the terminations, approximately $1.9 million of the balance held in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) was reclassified into earnings. The JPM Term Loan and a portion of the BMO Term Loan related to these interest rate swaps was also repaid on June 4, 2021, which is described in Note 4. ​ The Interest Rate Swaps qualified as cash flow hedges and have been recognized on the consolidated balance sheets at fair value. If a derivative qualifies as a hedge, depending on the nature of the hedge, changes in the fair value of the derivative will either be offset against the change in fair value of the hedged asset, liability, or firm commitment through earnings, or recognized in other comprehensive income until the hedged item is recognized in earnings. The ineffective portion of a derivative’s change in fair value will be recognized in earnings in the same period in which the hedged interest payments affect earnings, which may increase or decrease reported net income and stockholders’ equity prospectively, depending on future levels of interest rates and other variables affecting the fair values of derivative instruments and hedged items, but will have no effect on cash flows. ​ The following table summarizes the notional and fair value of the Company’s derivative financial instrument at December 31, 2022. The notional value is an indication of the extent of the Company’s involvement in this instrument at that time, but does not represent exposure to credit, interest rate or market risks. ​

​ The 2019 BMO Interest Rate Swap was reported as an asset with a fair value of approximately $4.4 million at December 31, 2022. The balance is included in other assets: derivative asset in the consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2022. ​ The gain/(loss) on the Company’s Interest Rate Swaps that was recorded in OCI and the accompanying consolidated statements of income as a component of interest expense for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, respectively, was as follows: ​

Total amount of Interest Expense presented in the consolidated statements of operations | ​ | $ | 24,318 | ​ | $ | 22,808 | ​ | $ | 32,273
​ Over time, the unrealized gains and losses held in accumulated other comprehensive income will be reclassified into earnings as an increase or reduction to interest expense in the same periods in which the hedged interest payments affect earnings. The Company estimates that approximately $0.4 million of the current balance held in accumulated other comprehensive income will be reclassified into earnings within the next 12 months. ​ The Company hedged the exposure to variability in anticipated future interest payments on existing debt. ​ The BMO Term Loan, Former BofA Term Loan and JPM Term Loan hedging transactions used derivative instruments that involved certain additional risks such as counterparty credit risk, the enforceability of hedging contracts and the risk that unanticipated and significant changes in interest rates would cause a significant loss of basis in either or both of the contracts. The Company required its derivatives contracts to be with counterparties that have investment grade ratings. As a result, the Company did not anticipate that any counterparty would fail to meet its obligations. However, there was no assurance that the Company would be able to adequately protect against the foregoing risks or that it would ultimately realize an economic benefit that exceeded the related amounts incurred in connection with engaging in such hedging strategies. ​ The fair value of the Company’s derivative instruments are determined using the net discounted cash flows of the expected cash flows of the derivative based on the market based interest rate curve and are adjusted to reflect credit or nonperformance risk. The risk is estimated by the Company using credit spreads and risk premiums that are observable in the market. These financial instruments were classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy and were classified as an asset or liability on the consolidated balance sheets. ​ The Company’s derivatives are recorded at fair value in other assets: derivative asset and other liabilities: derivative liability in the consolidated balance sheets and the effective portion of the derivatives’ fair value is recorded to other comprehensive income in the consolidated statements of other comprehensive income (loss).
