Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company is subject to volatility in interest rates due to variable-rate debt. To manage this risk, the Company periodically enters into interest rate swap agreements. During 2022, the Company completed a refinancing of its Senior Unsecured Credit Facility. As a result of this refinancing, the Company’s variable interest rate exposure increased. To manage this risk, the Company entered into several interest rate swap agreements. These agreements involved the receipt of variable-rate amounts in exchange for fixed-rate interest payments over the life of the respective swap agreement without an exchange of the underlying notional amount. The Company’s objective for utilizing these derivative instruments was to reduce its exposure to fluctuations in cash flows due to changes in interest rates.
The following table includes the key provisions of the interest rate swaps outstanding as of December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 (fair value in thousands):

In 2020, the Company terminated the two interest rate swaps related to the 2020 Senior Unsecured Credit Facility for a fee of $16.4 million, of which $8.7 million was recorded in “Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income” and is being amortized to “Loss on debt extinguishment, modifications and termination of derivative instruments” through 2024. The amortization of costs recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Operations from terminating these swaps was $2.5 million, $2.5 million, and $2.7 million during the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022, and 2021, respectively.
The Company is subject to volatility in foreign exchange rates due to foreign-currency denominated intercompany loans. The Company implemented cross-currency swaps to manage the foreign currency exchange rate risk on certain intercompany loans. These agreements effectively mitigate the Company’s exposure to fluctuations in cash flows due to foreign exchange rate risk. These agreements involve the receipt of fixed USD amounts in exchange for payment of fixed AUD amounts over the life of the respective intercompany loan. The Company’s outstanding intercompany loans receivable balance of A$153.5 million was hedged under the cross-currency swap agreements at December 31, 2023 and 2022. The Company previously had a cross-currency swap agreement that involved the receipt of fixed USD amounts in exchange for payment of fixed NZD amounts over the life of an intercompany loan balance of NZD 37.5 million, which matured on December 13, 2023.
For derivatives designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges of foreign exchange risk, the gain or loss on the derivative is recorded as “Unrealized gain (loss) on cash flow hedges” on the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive (Loss) Income and subsequently reclassified in the period(s) during which the hedged transaction affects earnings within the same income statement and related cash flow line item as the earnings effect of the hedged transaction. During the next year, the Company estimates that an additional $0.2 million will be reclassified as an increase to Foreign currency exchange loss (a component of “Other, net” on the Consolidated Statements of Operations) and an additional $11.7 million will be reclassified as a decrease to “Interest expense” and a corresponding increase to operating cash flows. Additionally, during the next year, the Company estimates that an additional $1.0 million will be reclassified as an increase to “Loss on debt extinguishment, modifications and termination of derivative instruments” related to the 2020 termination described above.
The Company determines the fair value of its derivative instruments using widely accepted valuation techniques, including discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of each derivative. This analysis reflects the contractual terms of the derivatives, including the period to maturity, and uses observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves, implied volatilities, foreign currency spot and forward rates. The fair values are determined using the market standard methodology of netting the discounted future fixed cash receipts (or payments) and the discounted expected variable cash payments (or receipts). The variable cash payments (or receipts) are based on an expectation of future interest rates (forward curves) derived from observable market interest rate curves. Foreign currency spot, forward and cross-currency basis are also incorporated into the valuation of cross-currency swaps. These inputs are classified as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. Derivative asset balances are recorded on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets within “ Other assets” and derivative liability balances are recorded on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets within “Accounts payable and accrued expenses”. The following table presents the fair value of the derivative financial instruments as of December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 (in thousands):

(1) In conjunction with the termination of interest rate swaps in 2020, the Company recorded amounts in other comprehensive income that will be reclassified as an adjustment to earnings over the term of the original hedges and respective borrowings through August 30, 2024. During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company recorded an increase to “Loss on debt extinguishment, modifications and termination of derivative instruments” related to this transaction.

The Company’s derivatives are subject to master netting agreements, but there was no impact of offsetting as of December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022.
