Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]  
Derivatives Derivatives
The Company utilizes derivative financial instruments to manage interest rate risk related to its variable rate debt. The Company’s objectives in using these interest rate derivatives, which were designated as cash flow hedges, are to manage its exposure to interest rate movements and reduce volatility of interest expense.
The following table summarizes the material terms of the Company’s outstanding interest rate swap derivative contracts as of December 31, 2024:
Effective DateMaturity DateTermsNotional Amount
April 28, 2023June 30, 2025Variable to Fixed$200,000 
June 30, 2023June 30, 2026Variable to Fixed150,000 
June 28, 2024June 30, 2027Variable to Fixed200,000 
Total$550,000 
The variable-to-fixed interest rate swaps effectively convert a portion of the variable rate debt into fixed interest rate debt.
Derivative instruments are recorded in the condensed consolidated balance sheet on a gross basis at estimated fair value. As of December 31, 2024, $2.7 million, $0.2 million, $0.5 million and $1.2 million were classified as other current assets, other long-term assets, other current liabilities and other long-term liabilities, respectively, on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. As of March 31, 2024, $8.7 million and $1.6 million were classified as other current assets and other long-term assets, respectively, on the condensed consolidated balance sheet.
For interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges, the changes in the fair value of derivatives are recorded in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (“AOCI”), net of taxes, and are subsequently reclassified into interest expense, net in the period that the hedged forecasted interest payments are made on the Company's variable-rate debt. The effect of derivative instruments on the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for the periods presented is as follows:
