Foreign Exchange

Net Investment Hedges The Company has international subsidiaries with net balance sheet positions that generate cumulative translation adjustments within AOCI. The Company uses derivatives to manage potential changes in value of its net investments in LA. The Company uses the forward-to-forward method for its quarterly retrospective and prospective assessments of hedge effectiveness. No ineffectiveness results if the notional amount of the derivative matches the portion of the net investment designated as being hedged because the Company uses derivative instruments with underlying exchange rates consistent with its functional currency and the functional currency of the hedged net investment. Changes in value that are deemed effective are accumulated in AOCI where they will remain until they are reclassified to income together with the gain or loss on the entire investment upon substantial liquidation of the subsidiary. The fair value of the Company’s net investment hedge contracts were $(4.5) and $1.0 as of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively. The net (loss) gain recognized in AOCI on net investment hedge derivative instruments was $(5.5) and $6.6 in the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

Non-Designated Hedges A substantial portion of the Company’s operations and revenues are international. As a result, changes in foreign exchange rates can create substantial foreign exchange gains and losses from the revaluation of non-functional currency monetary assets and liabilities. The Company’s policy allows the use of foreign exchange forward contracts with maturities of up to 24 months to mitigate the impact of currency fluctuations on those foreign currency asset and liability balances. The Company elected not to apply hedge accounting to its foreign exchange forward contracts. Thus, spot-based gains/losses offset revaluation gains/losses within foreign exchange (loss) gain, net and forward-based gains/losses represent interest expense. The fair value of the Company’s non-designated foreign exchange forward contracts was $1.9 and $0.9 as of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively.

Foreign Currency Option Contracts On November 23, 2015, the Company entered into foreign currency option contracts to purchase €1,416.0 for $1,547.1 to hedge against the effect of exchange rate fluctuations on the euro-denominated cash consideration related to the Acquisition and estimated euro denominated deal related costs and any outstanding Wincor Nixdorf borrowings. The cash component of the purchase price consideration approximates €1,162.2. The weighted average strike price is $1.09 per euro. These foreign currency option contracts are non-designated and are included in other current assets or other current liabilities based on the net asset or net liability position, respectively, in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The arrangement will net settle with an additional maximum payout of $60.0 that relates to a delayed premium due at maturity of the contracts in November 2016. During the three months ended March 31, 2016, the Company recorded a $36.5 mark-to-market gain on foreign currency option contracts reflected in miscellaneous, net. The fair value of the Company's foreign currency option contracts were $43.5 and $7.0 as of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively, and are included in other current assets. As of April 25, 2016, the fair value of the foreign currency option contracts was $27.6.

Interest Rate

Cash Flow Hedges The Company has variable rate debt that is subject to fluctuations in interest related cash flows due to changes in market interest rates. As of March 31, 2016, the Company had one pay-fixed receive-variable interest rate swap, with a total notional amount of $25.0, to hedge against changes in the LIBOR benchmark interest rate on a portion of the Company’s LIBOR-based borrowings. Changes in value that are deemed effective are accumulated in AOCI and reclassified to interest expense when the hedged interest is accrued. To the extent that it becomes probable that the Company’s variable rate borrowings will not occur, the gains or losses on the related cash flow hedges will be reclassified from AOCI to interest expense. The fair value of the Company’s interest rate contracts was minimal as of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015.

In December 2005 and January 2006, the Company executed cash flow hedges by entering into receive-variable and pay-fixed interest rate swaps, with a total notional amount of $200.0, related to the senior notes issuance in March 2006. Amounts previously recorded in AOCI related to the pre-issuance cash flow hedges were reclassified on a straight-line basis through February 2016.

The gain recognized on designated cash flow hedge derivative instruments was minimal for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and $0.3 for the three months ended March 31, 2015. Gains and losses related to interest rate contracts that are reclassified from AOCI are recorded in interest expense on the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The Company does not anticipate reclassifying any amount from AOCI to interest expense within the next 12 months.
