7. Derivative

We terminated our interest rate swap agreement in the second quarter of fiscal 2021. This interest rate swap, which would have matured on April 1, 2025, was established to manage our exposure to interest rate movements on our Revolving Facility. The interest rate swap entitled us to receive a variable rate of interest based on the one-month LIBO rate in exchange for the payment of a fixed interest rate of 0.802%. The notional amount of the swap agreement was $280.0 million through March 31, 2023 and $140.0 million from April 1, 2023 through April 1, 2025. The differences between the variable LIBO rate and the interest rate swap rate were settled monthly. Prior to termination, the interest rate swap was determined to be an effective hedging agreement.

Our only derivative was the aforementioned interest rate swap, which is designated as a cash flow hedge. No gains or losses representing amounts excluded from the assessment of effectiveness were recognized in earnings in the first three quarters of fiscal 2021.

The following table summarizes the changes related to the interest rate swap in accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”), net of tax, during the thirteen weeks ended March 30, 2021 (in thousands):

We classified this interest rate swap within Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy described in Note 2. Our counterparty under this arrangement provided monthly statements of the market values of this instrument based on significant inputs that were observable or could be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data for substantially the full term of the asset or liability. The impact on the derivative liability for our and the counterparty’s non-performance risk to the derivative trade was considered when measuring the fair value of derivative liability.
