Refer to “Note 15 to the Consolidated Financial Statements—Employee Benefit Plans” of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information regarding Mattel’s net periodic benefit cost.

Currency Translation Adjustments

Mattel’s reporting currency is the US dollar. The translation of its net investments in subsidiaries with non-US dollar functional currencies subjects Mattel to the impact of currency exchange rate fluctuations in its results of operations and financial position. Assets and liabilities of subsidiaries with non-US dollar functional currencies are translated into US dollars at fiscal period-end exchange rates. Income, expense, and cash flow items are translated at weighted average exchange rates prevailing during the fiscal period. The resulting currency translation adjustments are recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) within stockholders’ equity. Currency translation adjustments resulted in a net gain of $37.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014, primarily due to the strengthening of the British pound sterling, Brazilian real, and Australian dollar against the US dollar, partially offset by the weakening of the Euro. Currency translation adjustments resulted in a net loss of $64.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013, primarily due to the weakening of the Euro, Brazilian real, British pound sterling, and Australian dollar against the US dollar.
