The derivatives are primarily interest rate cash flow hedges. All are classified as non-current assets or non-current liabilities, as they hedge long-term financing agreements. The net amount of the fair value of interest rate derivatives designated as cash flow hedges transferred to the consolidated condensed income statement is a loss of $30.4 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2021 (loss of $30.0 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2020). The after-tax results accumulated in equity in connection with derivatives designated as cash flow hedges as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 amount to a profit of $140.4 million and $96.6 million, respectively. Additionally, the Company owns the following derivatives instruments:
| - | currency options with leading international financial institutions, which guarantee minimum Euro-U.S. dollar exchange rates. The strategy of the Company is to hedge the exchange rate for the distributions from its Spanish assets after deducting euro-denominated interest payments and euro-denominated general and administrative expenses. Through currency options, the Company hedges 100% of its euro-denominated net exposure for the next 12 months and 75% of its euro denominated net exposure for the following 12 months, on a rolling basis. Hedge accounting is not applied to these options.
| - | the conversion option of notes issued in July 2020 (Note 14), with a negative fair value of $17.9 million as of June 30, 2021 recorded as a derivative liability (derivative liability of $25.9 million as of December 31, 2020).
