Derivatives and Fair Value

DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

From time to time, the Company may use derivative financial instruments, primarily foreign currency forward and option contracts, to mitigate exposure from foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations as it pertains to receipts from customers, payments to suppliers and intercompany transactions, as well as from commodity price fluctuations. We record derivatives at their fair value as either an asset or liability. For derivatives not designated as hedges, adjustments to reflect changes in the fair value of our derivatives are included in earnings. For cash flow hedges that qualify and are designated for hedge accounting, the effective portion of the change in fair value of the derivative is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss and subsequently recognized in earnings when the hedged transaction affects earnings. Any ineffective portion is recognized immediately in earnings. As of October 2, 2021 and December 31, 2020, no derivatives were designated as hedges. Derivative contracts involve the risk of non-performance by the counterparty. The fair value of our foreign currency contracts are determined using the net position of the contracts and the applicable spot rates and forward rates as of the reporting date.    

As of October 2, 2021, the U.S. dollar equivalent notional value of outstanding foreign currency forward and option contracts, which are denominated in euros, was $60.3 and the fair value was $2.6, recorded within other current assets. There were no derivative contracts outstanding as of December 31, 2020. During the three and nine months ended October 2, 2021, we recognized losses related to foreign currency derivatives not designated as hedges of $1.1 and $3.3, respectively, within general and administrative expenses. During the three and nine months ended September 26, 2020, we recognized a gain of $0.1 and a loss of $3.7, respectively.

From time to time, we enter into call option contracts to mitigate exposure to commodity price fluctuations. As of October 2, 2021, call option contracts were nominal. There were no call option contracts outstanding as of December 31, 2020.

We utilize market approaches to estimate the fair value of our derivative instruments by discounting anticipated future cash flows derived from the derivative’s contractual terms and observable foreign exchange rates. The fair values of the derivatives summarized above are determined based on Level 2 inputs in the fair value hierarchy.
