Current Portion of Long-Term Debt
CERP’s current portion of long-term debt is $26 million, which includes scheduled principal payments on its senior secured loan, other unsecured borrowings, and capitalized lease obligations. CGP’s current portion of long-term debt is $20 million, which includes scheduled principal payments on term loans, special improvement district bonds, and various capital lease obligations.
Although there are no outstanding amounts under the revolving credit facilities for CERP or CGPH as of March 31, 2017, borrowings under these revolving credit facilities are each subject to separate note agreements executed based on the provisions of the applicable credit facility agreements, and each note has a contractual maturity of less than one year. The applicable credit facility agreements each have a contractual maturity of greater than one year, and we have the ability to rollover the outstanding principal balances on a long-term basis. Amounts borrowed under the revolving credit facilities are intended to satisfy short term liquidity needs and are classified as current.
Fair Value
We calculate the fair value of debt based on borrowing rates available as of March 31, 2017, for debt with similar terms and maturities, and based on market quotes of our publicly traded debt. We classify the fair value of debt within Level 1 and Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.
