Consists of an interest rate swap.

The fair value of the Public and 2020 PIPE Warrants are considered a Level 2 valuation and are determined using the Monte Carlo model. The significant assumptions which the Company used in the model are:

	Public Warrants			2020 PIPE Warrants			Public Warrants			2020 PIPE Warrants
Stock price	$	7.17		$	7.17		$	10.02		$	10.02
Strike price	$	11.50		$	5.75		$	11.50		$	5.75

Market risk associated with the Company’s long-term floating rate debt is the potential increase in interest expense from an increase in interest rates. The Company’s objectives in using interest rate derivatives are to add stability to interest expense and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements. These instruments are recorded on the balance sheet at their fair value and are designated as hedges. The financial impact of these hedging instruments is primarily offset by corresponding changes in the underlying exposures being hedged.

The Company assesses whether derivatives used in hedging transactions are “highly effective” in offsetting changes in the cash flow of its hedged forecasted transactions. The Company uses regression analysis for this hedge relationship and high effectiveness is achieved when a statistically valid relationship reflects a high degree of offset and correlation between the fair values of the derivative and the hedged forecasted transaction. Cash flows from the derivatives are classified in the same category as the cash flows from the underlying hedged transaction. These agreements involve the receipt of variable-rate amounts in exchange for fixed-rate interest payments over the life of the respective agreement without an exchange of the underlying notional amount. The Company classifies derivative instrument cash flows from hedges of benchmark interest rate as operating activities due to the nature of the hedged item. Gains and losses on derivatives that are designated as cash flow hedges are recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) until the underlying hedged transactions are recognized in earnings. If it is determined that the hedged forecasted transaction is no longer probable of occurring, then the amount recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) is released to earnings.

The Company monitors concentrations of credit risk associated with financial and other institutions with which the Company conducts significant business. Credit risk, including, but not limited to, counterparty nonperformance under derivatives, is not considered significant, as the Company primarily conducts business with large, well-established financial institutions with which the Company has established relationships, and which have credit risks acceptable to the Company. The Company does not anticipate non-performance by its counterparty. The amount of the Company’s credit risk exposure is equal to the fair value of the derivative when any of the derivatives are in a net gain position.

In September 2019, the Company entered into a floating-to-fixed interest rate swap agreement to make a series of payments based on a fixed interest rate of 1.457% and receive a series of payments based on the greater of 1 Month USD LIBOR or Strike which is used to hedge the Company’s exposure to changes in cash flows associated with its variable rate Term Loan Facilities and has designated this derivative as a cash flow hedge. Both the fixed and floating payment streams are based on a notional amount of $174.7 million at the inception of the contract.

The interest rate swap agreement has a maturity date of September 19, 2024. As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the notional amount is $115.3 million and $127.7 million, respectively. There was no ineffectiveness related to the interest rate swaps. The gain or loss on the derivative is recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and subsequently reclassified into interest expense in the same period(s) during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. The Company expects to reclassify $1.6 million of income from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) into interest expense within the next twelve months.

The fair value of the interest rate swap contract is measured on a recurring basis by netting the discounted future fixed cash payments and the discounted expected variable cash receipts. The variable cash receipts are based on the expectation of future interest rates (forward curves) derived from observable market interest rate curves. The interest rate swap contract was categorized as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. The Company is not required to post cash collateral related to this derivative instrument.
