Derivative Financial Instruments |
NOTE 5. DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS The Company conducts business in certain foreign currencies throughout its worldwide operations, and various entities hold monetary assets or liabilities, earn revenues, or incur costs in currencies other than the entity’s functional currency. As a result, the Company is exposed to foreign exchange gains or losses which impact the Company’s operating results. The Company bills its users in their local currencies, primarily in U.S. dollars and Euros, and the Company makes payments to merchants for products sold on the Company’s platforms in various currencies through third party payment service providers, which creates exposure to currency rate fluctuations. The Company hedges these exposures to reduce the risk that its earnings and cash flows will be adversely affected by changes in exchange rates. As part of the Company’s foreign currency risk mitigation strategy, the Company enters into derivative contracts and foreign exchange forward contracts with up to twelve months in duration to hedge exposures for variability in U.S.-dollar equivalent of non-U.S.-dollar denominated cash flows associated with its forecasted revenue related transactions. The Company’s derivatives transactions are not collateralized and do not include collateralization agreements with counterparties. The Company does not use derivative financial instruments for speculative or trading purposes. Volume of Derivative Activity Total gross notional amounts for outstanding derivatives (recognized at fair value) as of the end of period consist of the following:
Fair Value of Derivative Financial Instruments
(1) Derivative assets are included in prepaid and other current assets in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. (2) Derivative liabilities are included in accrued liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Derivatives in Cash Flow Hedging Relationships The changes in accumulated other comprehensive income resulting from cash flow hedging were as follows:
The Company recognizes changes in fair value of the cash flow hedges of foreign currency denominated merchants payable in accumulated other comprehensive loss in its condensed consolidated balance sheets until the forecasted transaction occurs. When the forecasted transaction affects earnings, the Company reclassifies the related gain or loss on the cash flow hedge to core marketplace revenue. All amounts in other comprehensive income at period end are expected to be reclassified to earnings within 12 months. In the event the underlying forecasted transaction does not occur, or it becomes probable that it will not occur, the Company reclassifies the gain or loss on the related cash flow hedge from accumulated other comprehensive loss to core marketplace revenue. For the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, there were no net gains or losses recognized in core marketplace revenue relating to hedges of forecasted transactions that did not occur. The Company classifies cash flows related to its cash flow hedges as operating activities in its condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. Derivatives Not Designated as Hedging Instruments The net gains on the change in fair value of the Company’s foreign exchange forward contracts not designated as hedging instruments were approximately $1 and $4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and were recognized in other income, net in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The Company classifies cash flows related to its non-designated hedging instruments as operating activities in its condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. |
