Financial Instruments: Derivatives and Hedging Financial Instruments: Derivatives and Hedging
In the normal course of business, we use a variety of commonly used derivative instruments, including, but not limited to, interest rate swaps, caps, collars and floors, to manage interest rate risk. We hedge our exposure to variability in future cash flows for forecasted transactions in addition to anticipated future interest payments on existing debt. We recognize all derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value. Derivatives that are not hedges are adjusted to fair value through earnings. If a derivative is 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 hedge asset, liability, or firm commitment through earnings, or recognized in other comprehensive income (loss) until the hedged item is recognized in earnings. Reported net income and equity may increase or decrease 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. Currently, all of our designated derivative instruments are effective hedging instruments.
The following table summarizes the notional value at inception and fair value of our consolidated derivative financial instruments as of December 31, 2025 based on Level 2 information. The notional value is an indication of the extent of our involvement in these instruments at that time, but does not represent exposure to credit, interest rate or market risks (dollars in thousands).

During the year ended December 31, 2025, we recorded a loss of $3.9 million based on the changes in the fair value of market-to-market interest rate swaps, which is included in "Purchase price and other fair value adjustments" in the consolidated statements of operations. During the year ended December 31, 2024, we recorded a gain of $5.5 million based on the changes in the fair value of forward-starting interest rate swaps, which is included in "Purchase price and other fair value adjustments" in the consolidated statements of operations. During the year ended December 31, 2023, we recorded a loss of $10.4 million based on the changes in the fair value of an interest rate cap we sold.
During the year ended December 31, 2025, we recorded a gain of $1.3 million, on the changes in fair value, which is included in interest expenses in the consolidated statements of operations. During the year ended December 31, 2024 we recorded a gain of $0.1 million on the changes in fair value, which is included in interest expense in the consolidated statements of operations. During the year ended December 31, 2023 we recorded a loss of $0.2 million on the changes in fair value, which is included in interest expense in the consolidated statements of operations.
Certain agreements the Company has with each of its derivative counterparties contain a provision where if the Company defaults on any of its indebtedness, then the Company could also be declared in default on its derivative obligations. As of December 31, 2025, the fair value of derivatives in a net liability position, including accrued interest but excluding any adjustment for nonperformance risk related to these agreements, was $17.6 million. As of December 31, 2025, the Company was not required to post any collateral related to these agreements and was not in breach of any agreement provisions. If the Company had breached any of these provisions, it could have been required to settle its obligations under the agreements at their aggregate termination value of $18.1 million as of December 31, 2025.
Gains and losses on terminated hedges are included in accumulated other comprehensive income, and are recognized into earnings over the term of the related obligation. Over time, the realized and unrealized gains and losses held in accumulated other comprehensive income will be reclassified into earnings as an adjustment to interest expense in the same periods in which the hedged interest payments affect earnings. We estimate that $0.6 million of the current balance held in accumulated other comprehensive income will be reclassified into interest expense and $5.7 million of the portion related to our share of joint
venture accumulated other comprehensive income will be reclassified into equity in net loss from unconsolidated joint ventures within the next 12 months.
The following table presents the effect of our derivative financial instruments and our share of our joint ventures' derivative financial instruments that are designated and qualify as hedging instruments on the consolidated statements of operations for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023, respectively (in thousands):
