Note 4. Derivative Instruments

Foreign Currency

The Company’s policy is to manage the risks associated with foreign exchange rate movements. The policy allows hedging up to 100% of its anticipated purchases of inventory over a forward period that will not exceed 12 rolling and consecutive months. The Company may, from time to time, hedge currency for non-inventory purchases, e.g., production equipment, not to exceed 90% of the purchase price. During 2022, the Company executed various foreign exchange contracts, which met hedge accounting requirements for the purchase of €28.9 million and sale of €28.9 million. The Company did not execute any foreign exchange contracts during 2021.

At December 31, 2022, the Company had foreign currency contracts for the purchase of €18.5 million and sale of €18.5 million. The foreign currency contracts’ fair value at December 31, 2022, resulted in an asset of $1.2 million included in Other current assets and a liability of $0.0 million included in Accrued liabilities. At December 31, 2021, the Company had no forward contracts. Losses of $0.1 million were reclassified from Accumulated other comprehensive loss to Cost of sales for the years ended December 31, 2022. There were no amounts reclassified from Accumulated other comprehensive loss in 2021 or 2020.

Interest Rate Swaps

The Company’s policy is to manage interest rate risk by reducing the volatility of future cash flows associated with debt instruments bearing interest at variable rates. In 2018, the Company executed various interest rate swap agreements for a notional amount of $70 million with an expiration of December 2022. The swap agreements fixed LIBOR at 2.755%. The swap agreements met the hedge accounting requirements; thus, any change in fair value was recorded to other comprehensive income. The Company uses the Shortcut Method to account for the swap agreements. The Shortcut Method assumes the hedge to be perfectly effective. Losses of $0.1 million and $1.5 million were reclassified into interest expense for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The Company terminated the interest rate swap agreements in conjunction with the prepayment of all outstanding amounts under the 2018 First Lien Credit Facility (as defined below) in the first quarter of 2021 with an early termination payment made by the Company in the amount of $3.6 million which was reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive loss into loss on extinguishment of debt.
