The Company, when it considers it to be appropriate, enters into forward contracts to hedge the economic exposures arising from foreign currency denominated transactions. At September 25, 2021 and December 26, 2020, these contracts

included the future sale of British pound sterling, euro, Israeli shekel, Japanese yen, Korean won, Singapore dollar, Taiwanese dollar, and Chinese renminbi to purchase U.S. dollars. Foreign currency forward contracts are not designated as hedges for accounting purposes and therefore, the change in fair value is recorded in “Other expense, net,” in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company records its forward contracts at fair value in either prepaid expenses and other current assets or other current liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The dollar equivalent of the U.S. dollar forward contracts and related fair values as of September 25, 2021 and December 26, 2020 were as follows:
