Fair Value Measurements Fair Value Measurements
Fair Value Hierarchy
GAAP establishes a hierarchy of valuation techniques based on the observability of inputs used in measuring assets and liabilities at fair value. GAAP establishes market-based or observable inputs as the preferred sources of values, followed by valuation models using management assumptions in the absence of market inputs. The three levels of the hierarchy are described below:
Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date.
Level 2 — Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset and liability or can be corroborated with observable market data for substantially the entire contractual term of the asset or liability.
Level 3 — Unobservable inputs that reflect the entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in the pricing of the asset or liability and are consequently not based on market activity, but rather through particular valuation techniques.
The determination of where an asset or liability falls in the hierarchy requires significant judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability. In instances where the determination of the fair value measurement is based on inputs from different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the entire fair value measurement falls is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The Company evaluates its hierarchy disclosures each quarter and depending on various factors, it is possible that an asset or liability may be classified differently from quarter to quarter. However, the Company expects that changes in classifications between levels will be rare.
A review of the fair value hierarchy classification is conducted on a quarterly basis. Changes in the type of inputs may result in a reclassification for certain assets and liabilities. The Company’s policy with respect to transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy is to recognize transfers into and out of each level as of the end of the reporting period. There were no transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy during the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021.
Financial Instruments Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis
Derivative Instruments
The Company’s derivative instruments are measured at fair value on a recurring basis. 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 this derivative utilize Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads to evaluate the likelihood of default by the Company and its counterparty. However, as of June 30, 2022, 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 the Company’s derivatives. As a result, the Company has determined that its derivatives valuation in its entirety is classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
The valuation of derivative instruments is determined using a 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, as well as observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves and implied volatilities. In addition, credit valuation adjustments are incorporated into the fair values to account for the Company’s potential nonperformance risk and the performance risk of the counterparties.
Real Estate Investments Measured at Fair Value on a Non-Recurring Basis
Real Estate Investments - Held for Sale
The Company has had impaired real estate investments classified as held for sale (see Note 3 — Real Estate Investments for additional information on impairment charges recorded by the Company). There were four impaired real estate investments held for sale as of June 30, 2022 and there were no impaired real estate investments held for sale as of December 31, 2021. The carrying value of impaired real estate investments held for sale on the consolidated balance sheets represents their estimated fair value less cost to sell. Impaired real estate investments held for sale are generally classified in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.
Real Estate Investments - Held for Use
The Company has had impaired real estate investments classified as held for use at the time of impairment (see Note 3 — Real Estate Investments for additional information on impairment charges recorded by the Company). The carrying value of these held for use impaired real estate investments held for use on the consolidated balance sheets represents their estimated fair value at the time of impairment. The Company primarily uses a market approach to estimate the future cash flows expected to be generated. Impaired real estate investments which are held for use are generally classified in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.
Financial Instruments that are not Reported at Fair Value
The carrying value of short-term financial instruments such as cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, prepaid expenses and other assets, accounts payable and accrued expenses and dividends payable approximates their fair value due to their short-term nature.
As of June 30, 2022, the carrying value of advances to the Company under the Credit Facility was $488.0 million and as of December 31, 2021 there were no amounts outstanding under the Credit Facility. The fair value of the advances to the Company under the Credit Facility was $486.8 million as of June 30, 2022, due to the widening of the credit spreads during the period.
The carrying values of the Company’s mortgage notes payable as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 were $1.8 billion and $1.5 billion, respectively, and the fair values were $1.7 billion and $1.5 billion, respectively. The fair value of gross mortgage notes payable is based on estimates of market interest rates. This approach relies on unobservable inputs and therefore is classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.
As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company’s Senior Notes had a gross carrying value of $500.0 million in each period and fair values of $395.0 million and $504.4 million, respectively.
