For the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company recognized $8.5 million and $14.1 million, respectively, of unrealized losses on interest rate swaps designated as hedging instruments in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, this amount was offset by an increase of $2.6 million and $4.7 million, respectively, for a change in carrying value of the 2026 Notes, a decrease of $2.5 million and $4.9 million, respectively, for a change in carrying value of the 2028 Notes, a decrease of $3.2 million and $5.9 million, respectively, for a change in carrying value of the 2029 Notes, a decrease of

$3.7 million and $6.3 million, respectively, for a change in carrying value of the 2030 Notes and a decrease of $1.7 million and $1.7 million, respectively, for a change in carrying value of the 2031 Notes.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company recognized $11.6 million and $29.2 million, respectively, of unrealized gains on interest rate swaps designated as hedging instruments in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, this amount was offset by an increase of $2.8 million and $6.2 million, respectively, for a change in carrying value of the 2026 Notes, an increase of $2.2 million and $5.8 million, respectively, for a change in carrying value of the 2028 Notes, an increase of $3.3 million and $8.3 million, respectively, for a change in carrying value of the 2029 Notes and an increase of $3.3 million and $8.9 million, respectively, for a change in carrying value of the 2030 Notes.

As of June 30, 2026, the swap transactions had a fair value of $(3.8) million, which is netted against cash collateral of $40.1 million. Cash is pledged as collateral under the Company’s derivative agreements and is included in restricted cash as a component of cash and cash equivalents on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet. As of December 31, 2025, the swap transactions had a fair value of $10.3 million, which is netted against cash collateral of $16.7 million. Cash is pledged as collateral under the Company’s derivative agreements and is included in restricted cash as a component of cash and cash equivalents on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet.

The Company is required under the terms of its derivatives agreements to pledge assets as collateral to secure its obligations underlying the derivatives. The amount of collateral required varies over time based on the mark-to-market value, notional amount and remaining term of the derivatives, and may exceed the amount owed by the Company on a mark-to-market basis. Any failure by the Company to fulfill any collateral requirement (e.g., a so-called “margin call”) may result in a default. In the event of a default by a counterparty, the Company would be an unsecured creditor to the extent of any such overcollateralization.

The Company may enter into other derivative instruments and incur other exposures with the same or other counterparties in the future.
