Estimated future amortization and the increasing (decreasing) effect on lease income for our above and below market leases as of December 31, 2022 are as follows: Below Above Impact to Market Market Lease Leases Leases Income, Net 2023........................................ $ 4,352 $ (5,235) $ (883) 2024........................................ 3,421 (3,525) (104) 2025........................................ 2,318 (1,477) 841 2026........................................ 1,553 (433) 1,120 2027........................................ 1,246 (26) 1,220 Thereafter ................................... 2,451 — 2,451 $ 15,341 $ (10,696) $ 4,645 Derivative Financial Instruments We record all derivatives on our consolidated balance sheets at fair value. The accounting for changes in the fair value of derivatives depends on the intended use of the derivative, whether we have designated a derivative as a hedge and whether the hedging relationship has satisfied the criteria necessary to apply hedge accounting. We may use a variety of derivative financial instruments in the normal course of business to selectively manage or hedge a portion of the risks associated with our indebtedness and interest payments. Our objectives in using interest rate derivatives are to add stability to interest expense and to manage our exposure to interest rate movements. To accomplish this objective, we primarily use interest rate swaps and caps. We require that hedging derivative instruments be highly effective in reducing the risk exposure that they are designated to hedge. We generally formally designate instruments that meets these hedging criteria as a hedge at the inception of the derivative contract. We have no credit-risk-related hedging or derivative activities. As of December 31, 2022, we had the following outstanding interest rate derivatives related to managing our interest rate risk: Number of Notional Interest Rate Derivative Instruments Amount Interest Rate Swaps ................................................... 1 €128.0 million InterestRateCaps..................................................... 5 €319.0 million As of December 31, 2021, we had the following outstanding interest rate derivatives related to managing our interest rate risk: Number of Notional Interest Rate Derivative Instruments Amount Interest Rate Swaps ................................................... 2 $375.0 million The carrying value of our interest rate cap and swap agreements, at fair value, as of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 was a net asset balance of $1.3 million and $0.6 million, respectively, and is included in deferred costs and other assets. Our exposure to market risk due to changes in interest rates primarily relates to our long-term debt obligations. We manage exposure to interest rate market risk through our risk management strategy by a combination of interest rate protection agreements to effectively fix or cap a portion of variable rate debt.
