Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
We are exposed to market risk primarily from changes in interest rates, which may affect our future income, cash flows and fair value, depending on changes to interest rates. In certain situations, we may seek to reduce cash flow volatility associated with changes in interest rates by entering into financial arrangements intended to provide a hedge against a portion of the risks associated with such volatility.
Interest Rate Risk
We are exposed to interest rate risk on our variable-rate debt. The interest rate on our variable-rate debt discussed below is based on the secured overnight financing rate (“SOFR”), and our risk related to future interest rates is most vulnerable to changes in this rate.
The following table sets forth the contractual maturities and the total fair values as of December 31, 2025 for our financial instruments that are materially affected by interest rate risk:
