We are exposed to market risks, primarily relating to potential losses due to changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates. We seek to mitigate the effects of fluctuations in interest rates by matching the term of new investments with new long-term fixed rate borrowings whenever possible. As of June 30, 2026, we had a $1.0 billion unsecured revolving credit facility with a $360.0 million outstanding balance. We also had a $25.0 million bond that bears interest at a floating rate but has been fixed through an interest rate swap agreement.

We are subject to risks associated with debt financing, including the risk that existing indebtedness may not be refinanced or that the terms of such refinancing may not be as favorable as the terms of current indebtedness. The majority of our borrowings are subject to contractual agreements or mortgages, which limit the amount of indebtedness we may incur. Accordingly, if we are unable to raise additional equity or borrow money due to these limitations or otherwise, our ability to make additional real estate investments may be limited.
Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk
To hedge our interest rate risk, we entered into an interest rate swap agreement on our variable rate secured bonds with a notional amount of $25.0 million. The interest rate swap agreement limits the variable portion of the interest rate (SOFR) on this bond to 2.5325% until September 30, 2026.
Hedges of Foreign Exchange Risk
We are exposed to foreign currency risk against our functional currency, the U.S. dollar ("USD"), on our seven Canadian properties and the rents received from tenants of the properties are payable in the Canadian dollar ("CAD"). In order to hedge our CAD denominated cash flows and our net investment in our seven Canadian properties, we entered into cross-currency swaps designated as cash flow hedges and foreign currency forwards designated as net investment hedges as further described below.
Additionally, we have a CAD denominated mortgage note receivable that exposes us to currency risk associated with the fluctuations in the USD-CAD spot rate associated with the principal remeasurement of this mortgage note as well as the interest received from the borrower. In order to hedge this risk, we entered into a cross-currency swap designated as a fair value hedge as further described below.
Cash Flow Hedges of Foreign Exchange Risk-Cross Currency Swaps
We entered into six USD-CAD cross-currency swaps that became effective October 1, 2024, with a total fixed original notional value of $170.0 million CAD and $125.0 million USD. The net effect of these swaps is to lock in an exchange rate of $1.35 CAD per USD on approximately $15.3 million annual CAD denominated cash flows through December 2026.
We entered into two USD-CAD cross-currency swaps that became effective December 1, 2024, with a total fixed original notional value of $90.0 million CAD and $66.2 million USD. The net effect of these swaps is to lock in an exchange rate of $1.35 CAD per USD on approximately $8.1 million annual CAD denominated cash flows through December 2026.
Net Investment Hedges - Foreign Currency Forward Contracts
We entered into two forward contracts that became effective December 19, 2024 with a fixed notional value of $200.0 million CAD and $142.8 million USD with a settlement date of December 1, 2026. The exchange rate of these forward contracts is approximately $1.40 CAD per USD.
We entered into a forward contract that became effective December 19, 2024 with a fixed notional value of $90.0 million CAD and $64.3 million USD with a settlement date of December 1, 2026. The exchange rate of this forward contract is approximately $1.40 CAD per USD.
For foreign currency derivatives designated as net investment hedges, the change in the fair value of the derivatives, including any cash settlements, is reported in AOCI as part of the cumulative translation adjustment. Amounts are reclassified out of AOCI into earnings when the hedged net investment is either sold or substantially liquidated.
Fair Value Hedge of Foreign Exchange Risk-Cross Currency Swap
We entered into a USD-CAD cross-currency swap that became effective September 25, 2025, with a total fixed notional value of $27.9 million CAD and $20.0 million USD. The cross-currency swap includes an initial and final exchange of the principal balance of the CAD denominated mortgage note receivable with an exchange rate of $1.392 CAD per USD. In addition to the initial and final exchange, we have monthly exchanges on the notional value of $27.9 million CAD. The net effect of these swaps is to lock in an exchange rate of $1.246 CAD per USD on approximately $2.2 million annual CAD denominated cash flows through September 2030.
