Derivative Financial Instruments Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company uses derivative instruments to mitigate the effects of interest rate fluctuations on specific forecasted transactions as well as recognized financial obligations or assets. Utilizing derivative instruments allows the Company to manage the risk of fluctuations in interest rates related to the potential impact these changes could have on future earnings and forecasted cash flows. The Company does not use derivative instruments for speculative or trading purposes.
In March 2021, the Company repaid $39 million of variable rate secured debt on two SHOP assets classified as discontinued operations as of June 30, 2021 and terminated the two remaining related interest rate swap contracts. Therefore, at June 30, 2021, the Company had no remaining interest rate swap contracts.
In April 2021, the Company executed two interest rate cap agreements on its mortgage debt issued in conjunction with the acquisition of the MOB Portfolio (see Note 4). The following table summarizes the Company’s outstanding interest rate cap agreements as of June 30, 2021 (dollars in thousands):
