As of June 30, 2026, Farmer Mac expects to reclassify $7.4 million after-tax from accumulated other comprehensive income to earnings over the next twelve months related to cash flow hedges. This amount could differ from amounts actually recognized due to changes in interest rates, hedge de-designations, and the addition of other hedges after June 30, 2026.

As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, there were no financial
derivatives in a net payable position where Farmer Mac was required to pledge collateral which the counterparty had the right to sell or repledge.
Of Farmer Mac's $28.7 billion notional amount of interest rate swaps outstanding as of June 30, 2026, $20.8 billion were cleared through the Chicago Mercantile Exchange ("CME"). Of Farmer Mac's $25.5 billion notional amount of interest rate swaps outstanding as of December 31, 2025, $19.4 billion were cleared through the CME.
