In the normal course of servicing commercial customers, the Company acts as an interest rate swap counterparty for certain commercial borrowers. The Company manages its exposure to such interest rate swaps by entering into corresponding and offsetting interest rate swaps with third parties that match the terms of the interest rate swap with the commercial borrowers. These positions directly offset each other and the Company’s exposure is the fair value of the derivatives due to potential changes in credit risk of our commercial borrowers and third parties.

The notional amount of the interest rate swaps does not represent amounts exchanged by the parties. The amount exchanged is determined by reference to the notional amount and the other terms of the individual interest rate swap agreements. At December 31, 2024, the Company held derivatives not designated as hedging instruments, comprised of back-to-back interest rate swaps, with a total notional amount of $376.6 million, consisting of $188.3 million of interest rate swaps with commercial borrowers and $188.3 million of offsetting interest rate swaps with third-party counterparties on substantially the same terms. At June 30, 2024, the Company held derivatives not designated as hedging instruments, comprised of back-to-back interest rate swaps, with a total notional amount of $406.8 million, consisting of $203.4 million of interest rate swaps with commercial borrowers and $203.4 million of offsetting interest rate swaps with third-party counterparties on substantially the same terms.

At June 30, 2023, the Company held derivatives not designated as hedging instruments, comprised of back-to-back interest rate swaps, with a total notional amount of $455.8 million, consisting of $227.9 million of interest rate swaps with commercial borrowers and $227.9 million of offsetting interest rate swaps with third-party counterparties on substantially the same terms.
