At June 26, 2016, the Company had remaining net deferred gains on foreign currency forward contracts, net of tax, of $46,138 in accumulated other comprehensive loss ("AOCE"). These instruments hedge payments related to inventory purchased in the second quarter of 2016 or forecasted to be purchased during the remainder of 2016 and, to a lesser extent, 2017 through 2020, intercompany expenses expected to be paid or received during 2016 and 2017, cash receipts for sales made at the end of the second quarter of 2016 or forecasted to be made in the remainder of 2016 and, to a lesser extent, 2017 through 2018. These amounts will be reclassified into the consolidated statements of operations upon the sale of the related inventory or recognition of the related sales or expenses. 

In addition to foreign currency forward contracts, the Company entered into hedging contracts on future interest payments related to the long-term notes due 2021 and 2044.  At the date of debt issuance in 2014, these contracts were terminated and the fair value on the date of settlement was deferred in AOCE and is being amortized to interest expense over the life of the related notes using the effective interest rate method. At June 26, 2016, deferred losses, net of tax of $18,789 related to these instruments remained in AOCE. For the quarters ended June 26, 2016 andJune 28, 2015, previously deferred losses of $450 were reclassified from AOCE to net earnings. For the six month periodsended June 26, 2016 andJune 28, 2015, previously deferred losses of $899 were reclassified from AOCE to net earnings.

Of the amount included in AOCE at June 26, 2016, the Company expects approximately $26,920 to be reclassified to the consolidated statements of operations within the next 12 months. However, the amount ultimately realized in earnings is dependent on the fair value of the hedging instruments on the settlement dates.
