Derivative and other instruments eligible for offset are presented gross on the consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, if applicable. The Company has not offset or netted any derivatives or other instruments with any financial instruments or cash collateral posted or received.
 
The Company must post cash or securities as collateral on its derivative instruments when their fair value declines. This typically occurs when prevailing market rates change adversely, with the severity of the change also dependent on the term of the derivatives involved. The posting of collateral is generally bilateral, meaning that if the fair value of the Company’s derivatives increases, its counterparty must post collateral. As of June 30, 2026, the Company's restricted cash balance included $11.4 million of collateral related to certain derivatives, of which $1.7 million represents cash collateral posted by the Company and $9.7 million represents amounts related to variation margin. As of December 31, 2025, the Company's restricted cash balance included $9.6 million of collateral related to certain derivatives, of which $5.5 million represents cash collateral posted by the Company and $4.1 million represents amounts related to variation margin.
