Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]

Derivative Instruments

Derivative Instruments

The Company uses derivatives to partially offset its market exposure to fluctuations in certain foreign currencies and does not enter into derivatives for speculative or trading purposes.

The notional amount of the Company's foreign currency derivatives are summarized as follows (in millions):

	As of
	March 31, 2015		December 31, 2014
Cash flow hedges	$	118.5	$	160.7
Non-designated derivatives	78.4		78.0
Total	$	196.9	$	238.7

Cash Flow Hedges

The Company uses foreign currency forward or option contracts to hedge certain forecasted foreign currency transactions relating to cost of services and operating expenses. The derivatives are intended to hedge the U.S. Dollar equivalent of the Company's planned cost of services and operating expenses denominated in certain foreign currencies. These derivatives are designated as cash flow hedges. Execution of these cash flow hedge derivatives typically occurs every month with maturities of one year or less. The effective portion of the derivative's gain or loss is initially reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income, and upon occurrence of the forecasted transaction, is subsequently reclassified into the cost of services or operating expense line item to which the hedged transaction relates. The Company records any ineffectiveness of the hedging instruments in other (expense) income, net, on its Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Cash flows from such hedges are classified as operating activities. All amounts within other comprehensive income are expected to be reclassified into earnings within the next twelve months.

See Note 4, Fair Value Measurements, for the fair values of the Company's derivative instruments in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

As of March 31, 2015, the Company recognized a loss of $6.1 million in accumulated other comprehensive loss for the effective portion of its derivative instruments and reclassified a loss of $3.0 million during the three months ended March 31, 2015 from other comprehensive income to operating expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. As of March 31, 2014, the Company recognized a gain of $2.7 million in accumulated other comprehensive income for the effective portion of its derivative instruments and reclassified a gain of $1.0 million during the three months ended March 31, 2014 from other comprehensive loss to operating expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

The ineffective portion of the Company's derivative instruments recognized in its Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations was not material during the three months ended March 31, 2015 and March 31, 2014.

Non-Designated Derivatives

The Company also uses foreign currency forward contracts to mitigate variability in gains and losses generated from the remeasurement of certain monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies. These derivatives are carried at fair value with changes recorded in other (expense) income, net, in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Changes in the fair value of these derivatives are largely offset by remeasurement of the underlying assets and liabilities. Cash flows from such derivatives are classified as operating activities. These foreign exchange forward contracts have maturities within two months.

During the three months ended March 31, 2015 and March 31, 2014, the Company recognized a net gain of $2.1 million and a net loss of $0.6 million, respectively, on non-designated derivative instruments within other (expense) income, net, in its Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Offsetting of Derivatives

The Company presents its derivative assets and derivative liabilities on a gross basis in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. However, under agreements containing provisions on netting with certain counterparties of foreign exchange contracts, subject to applicable requirements, the Company is allowed to net-settle transactions on the same date in the same currency, with a single net amount payable by one party to the other. As of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the potential effect of rights of setoff associated with derivative instruments was not material. The Company is neither required to pledge nor entitled to receive cash collateral related to these derivative transactions.
