Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]  
Financial Instruments
10. Financial Instruments
We utilize derivative financial instruments to manage exposure to certain risks related to our ongoing operations. The primary risks managed through the use of derivative instruments include interest rate risk, currency exchange risk and commodity price risk. We do not use derivative instruments for trading or speculative purposes. While the majority of our derivative instruments are designated as hedging instruments, we also enter into derivative instruments that are designed to hedge a risk but are not designated as hedging instruments. These derivative instruments are adjusted to current fair value through earnings at the end of each period. We are exposed to counterparty credit risk on all of our derivative instruments. Accordingly, we have established and maintain strict counterparty credit guidelines and only enter into derivative instruments with major financial institutions that are rated investment grade or better. We do not have significant exposure to any one counterparty and we believe the risk of loss is remote. Additionally, we do not require collateral under these agreements.
Interest Rate Risk Management
We are exposed to the impact of interest rate changes. Our objective is to manage the impact of interest rate changes on cash flows and the market value of our borrowings. We utilize a mix of debt maturities along with both fixed-rate and variable-rate debt to manage changes in interest rates. In addition, we enter into interest rate swaps to further manage our exposure to interest rate variations related to our borrowings and to lower our overall borrowing costs.
Currency Exchange Risk Management
We conduct business in several major international currencies and are subject to risks associated with changing foreign exchange rates. Our objective is to reduce earnings and cash flow volatility associated with foreign exchange rate changes to allow management to focus its attention on business operations.
Accordingly, we enter into various contracts that change in value as foreign exchange rates change to protect the value of existing foreign currency assets and liabilities, commitments and anticipated foreign currency revenue and expenses.
Commodity Price Risk Management
We are exposed to changes in the price of certain commodities. Our objective is to reduce earnings and cash flow volatility associated with forecasted purchases of these commodities to allow management to focus its attention on business operations. Accordingly, we enter into derivative contracts when possible to manage the price risk associated with certain forecasted purchases.
The following table summarizes the fair value of our assets and liabilities related to derivatives designated as hedging instruments and the respective line items in which they were recorded in the consolidated balance sheets at June 30:

Fair Value Hedges
We enter into pay-floating interest rate swaps to hedge the changes in the fair value of fixed-rate debt resulting from fluctuations in interest rates. These contracts are designated and qualify as fair value hedges. Accordingly, the gain or loss recorded on the pay-floating interest rate swaps is directly offset by the change in fair value of the underlying debt. Both the derivative instrument and the underlying debt are adjusted to market value at the end of each period with any resulting gain or loss recorded in interest expense, net in the consolidated statements of earnings/(loss). During fiscal 2023, 2022 and 2021 there were no gains or losses recorded to interest expense as changes in the market value of our derivative instruments offset changes in the market value of the underlying debt.
During fiscal 2023, 2022 and 2021, we entered into pay-floating interest rate swaps with total notional amounts of $300 million, $600 million and $200 million, respectively. These swaps have been designated as fair value hedges of our fixed rate debt and are included in deferred income taxes and other liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets.
During fiscal 2021, we unwound certain interest rate swap contracts with the notional amount of $550 million. In connection
with the unwind of these contracts, we received cash proceeds of $18 million. The related gain was recognized in interest expense, net in our consolidated statements of earnings/(loss) over the remaining term of the debt agreement, which matured in March 2023.
The following tables summarize the outstanding interest rate swaps designated as fair value hedges at June 30:

Cash Flow Hedges
We enter into derivative instruments to hedge our exposure to changes in cash flows attributable to interest rate, foreign currency and commodity price fluctuations associated with certain forecasted transactions. These derivative instruments are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges. Accordingly, the gain or loss on the derivative instrument is reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss and reclassified into earnings in the same line item associated with the forecasted transaction and in the same period during which the hedged transaction affects earnings.
During fiscal 2021, we terminated forward interest rate swaps with a total notional amount of $200 million that were entered into in fiscal 2020 because the forecasted transactions were probable of not occurring. As a result, we reclassified an immaterial deferred gain from accumulated other comprehensive loss into interest expense, net in our consolidated statements of earnings/(loss).
Gains currently included within accumulated other comprehensive loss associated with our cash flow hedges to be reclassified into net earnings within the next 12 months are immaterial.
We enter into foreign currency contracts to protect the value of anticipated foreign currency revenues and expenses. At June 30, 2023 and 2022, we held contracts to hedge probable, but not firmly committed, revenue and expenses. The principal currencies hedged are the Canadian dollar, Mexican peso, Chinese renminbi, Thai baht, Euro, Japanese yen, Philippine peso, Australian dollar, Indian rupee, British pound and Swiss franc.
We enter into commodity contracts to manage the price risk associated with forecasted purchases of certain commodities used in our Medical segment.

Net Investment Hedges
We hedge the foreign currency risk associated with certain net investment positions in foreign subsidiaries. To accomplish this, we enter into cross-currency swaps that are designated as hedges of net investments.
During fiscal 2023, we entered into €100 million ($107 million) cross-currency swaps maturing in March 2025, €100 million ($107 million) cross-currency swaps maturing in March 2026, ¥19 billion ($150 million) cross-currency swaps maturing in September 2025 and ¥19 billion ($150 million) cross-currency swaps maturing in June 2027.
During fiscal 2023, we terminated the €200 million ($233 million) cross-currency swap entered into in September 2018 and the ¥48 billion ($400 million) cross-currency swaps entered into in March 2022 and received net settlements in cash of $19 million and $10 million, respectively. These were recorded in proceeds from net investment hedge terminations in our consolidated statements of cash flows.
During fiscal 2022, we entered into a ¥24 billion ($200 million) cross-currency swap maturing in September 2025 and a ¥24 billion ($200 million) cross-currency swap maturing in June 2027.
During fiscal 2022, we terminated the ¥64 billion ($600 million) cross-currency swap entered into in August 2019 and received a net settlement in cash of $71 million recorded in proceeds from net investment hedge terminations in our consolidated statements of cash flows.
Cross-currency swaps designated as net investment hedges are marked-to-market using the current spot exchange rate as of the end of the period, with gains and losses included in the foreign currency translation component of accumulated other comprehensive loss until the sale or substantial liquidation of the underlying net investments. To the extent the cross-currency swaps designated as net investment hedges are not highly effective, changes in carrying value attributable to the change in spot rates are recorded in earnings.
Pre-tax gains and losses from net investment hedges recorded in the foreign currency translation component of accumulated other comprehensive loss were a $6 million loss and a $86 million gain during fiscal 2023 and 2022, respectively. Gains recognized in interest expense, net in the consolidated statements of earnings/(loss) for the portion of the net investment hedges excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness were $16 million and $21 million during fiscal 2023 and 2022, respectively.
Economic (Non-Designated) Hedges
We enter into foreign currency contracts to manage our foreign exchange exposure related to sales transactions, intercompany financing transactions and other balance sheet items subject to revaluation that do not meet the requirements for hedge accounting treatment. Accordingly, these derivative instruments are adjusted to current market value at the end of each period through earnings. The gain or loss recorded on these instruments is substantially offset by the remeasurement adjustment on the foreign currency denominated asset or liability. The settlement of the derivative instrument and the remeasurement adjustment on the foreign currency denominated asset or liability are both recorded in other (income)/expense, net. The principal currencies managed through foreign currency contracts are the Euro, Chinese renminbi, Canadian dollar, Indian rupee and Philippine peso.
