Fair Value Measurements

12 Months Ended

Dec. 31, 2023

The following tables present the Company's assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring and non-recurring basis as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, aggregated by the level in the fair value hierarchy within which those measurements fall:


			Fair Value Measurements Using
Description	2023		(Level 1)		(Level 2)		(Level 3)

Interest rate swap assets	$	9,471	$	—	$	9,471	$	—
Impaired assets held for sale (1)	$	9,170	$	—	$	—	$	9,170

(1) The Company estimated the fair value of certain real estate assets throughout the year based on a discounted cash flow analysis using a discount rate of 10.0% and a residual capitalization rate of 8.0%. As significant inputs to the models are unobservable, the Company determined that the value determined for these properties falls within Level 3 of the fair value reporting hierarchy.


			Fair Value Measurements Using
Description	2022		(Level 1)		(Level 2)		(Level 3)
Interest rate swap assets	$	16,318	$	—	$	16,318	$	—

The majority of the inputs used to value the Company's interest rate swaps fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, such as observable market interest rate curves; however, the credit valuation associated with the interest rate swaps utilizes Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads to evaluate the likelihood of default by the Company and its counterparties. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company determined that the credit valuation adjustment relative to the overall interest rate swaps was not significant. As a result, all interest rate swaps have been classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

The table below sets forth the carrying amounts and estimated fair values of the Company's financial instruments as of December 31, 2023 and 2022:


	As of December 31, 2023				As of December 31, 2022
	Carrying Amount		Fair Value		Carrying Amount		Fair Value
Assets
Investment in a sales-type lease, net	$	63,464	$	62,500	$	61,233	$	60,984

Liabilities
Debt	$	1,770,827	$	1,630,066	$	1,488,051	$	1,293,239

The fair value of the Company's investment in a sales-type lease, net is primarily estimated utilizing Level 3 inputs by using a discounted cash flow analysis and an estimate of the unguaranteed residual value.

The fair value of the Company's debt is primarily estimated utilizing Level 3 inputs by using a discounted cash flow analysis, based upon estimates of market interest rates. The Company determines the fair value of its Senior Notes using market prices. The inputs used in determining the fair value of these notes are categorized as Level 1 due to the fact that the Company uses quoted market rates to value these instruments. However, the inputs used in determining the fair value could be categorized as Level 2 if trading volumes are low.

Fair values cannot be determined with precision, may not be substantiated by comparison to quoted prices in active markets and may not be realized upon sale. Additionally, there are inherent uncertainties in any fair value measurement technique, and changes in the underlying assumptions used, including discount rates, liquidity risks and estimates of future cash flows, could significantly affect the fair value measurement amounts.

Cash Equivalents, Restricted Cash, Short-Term Investments, Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable. The Company estimates that the fair value of cash equivalents, restricted cash, short-term investments, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximates carrying value due to the relatively short maturity of the instruments.
