Included in the assessment of hedge effectiveness as of June 30, 2016, but excluded from the amounts in the table, were losses of $1.8 million and $3.3 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, attributable to the fair value of the swaps at the inception of the hedging relationship. Accordingly, the amounts recognized as hedge ineffectiveness for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 were gains of $0.3 million and $1.7 million, respectively. The comparable amounts as of June 30, 2015 were losses of $2.9 million and $5.8 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, attributable to the fair value of the swaps at the inception of the hedging relationship and, accordingly, losses of $0.2 million and gains of $0.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, attributable to hedge ineffectiveness.
