At September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company’s derivative financial instruments consisted of interest rate swaps. The Company’s interest rate swaps are used for three purposes: 1) to mitigate the Company’s exposure to rising interest rates on certain fixed rate loans totaling $308.4. million and $316.1 million at September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively; 2) to facilitate risk management strategies for our loan customers with $229.7 million of swaps outstanding, which include $114.8 million with customers and $114.8 million with bank counterparties at September 30, 2021 and $125.6 million of swaps outstanding, which include $62.8 million with customers and $62.8 million with bank counterparties at December 31, 2020; and 3) to mitigate exposure to rising interest rates on certain short-term advances and brokered CD’s totaling $996.5 million and $1,021.5 million at September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. Additionally, at December 31, 2020, the Company had swaps outstanding to mitigate the Company’s exposure to rising interest rates on a portion ($18.0 million) of its floating rate junior subordinated debentures that have a contractual value of $61.9 million. These swaps were terminated during the three months ended September 30, 2021, realizing a loss of $4.7 million upon termination.

At September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, we held derivatives designated as cash flow hedges, fair value hedges and certain derivatives not designated as hedges.

The Company’s derivative instruments are carried at fair value in the Company’s financial statements as part of Other Assets for derivatives with positive fair values and Other Liabilities for derivatives with negative fair values. The accounting for changes in the fair value of a derivative instrument is dependent upon whether or not it qualifies and has been designated as a hedge for accounting purposes, and further, by the type of hedging relationship.

At September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, derivatives with a combined notional amount of $229.7 million and $143.6 million, respectively, were not designated as hedges. At September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, derivatives with a combined notional amount of $308.4 million and $316.1 million, respectively, were designated as fair value hedges. At September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, derivatives with a combined notional amount of $996.5 million and $1,021.5 million, respectively, were designated as cash flow hedges.

For cash flow hedges, the changes in the fair value of the derivative is reported in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), net of tax. Amounts in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) are reclassified into earnings in the same period during which the hedged forecasted transaction effects earnings. During the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, $2.6 million and $1.4 million, respectively, were reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive loss to interest expense. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, $7.9 million and $2.1 million, respectively, were reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive loss to interest expense. The estimated amount to be reclassified in the next 12 months out of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) is $10.5 million.

Changes in the fair value of interest rate swaps not designated as hedges are reflected in “Net gain/loss from fair value adjustments” in the Consolidated Statements of Income.

The following table sets forth information regarding the Company’s derivative financial instruments at the periods indicated:

(1)Derivatives in a positive position are recorded as “Other assets” and derivatives in a negative position are recorded as “Other liabilities” in the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition.
