Derivatives and Financial Instruments

Derivatives and Financial Instruments

Derivative financial instruments

We are exposed to market risk related to changes in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates on our floating rate indebtedness. To manage the volatility related to these exposures, we periodically enter into a variety of derivative financial instruments. Our objective is to reduce, where it is deemed appropriate to do so, fluctuations in earnings and cash flows associated with changes in foreign currency rates and interest rates. The derivative contracts contain credit risk to the extent that our bank counterparties may be unable to meet the terms of the agreements. The amount of such credit risk is generally limited to the unrealized gains, if any, in such contracts. Such risk is minimized by limiting those counterparties to major financial institutions of high credit quality.

Interest rate swaps

During 2012, we used floating to fixed rate interest rate swaps to mitigate our exposure to future changes in interest rates related to our floating rate indebtedness. We designated these interest rate swap arrangements as cash flow hedges. As a result, changes in the fair value of the interest rate swaps were recorded in AOCI on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets throughout the contractual term of each of the interest rate swap arrangements. During 2012, all of our interest rate swaps expired or were terminated and, as a result, we had no outstanding interest rate swap arrangements at December 31, 2012 or June 29, 2013.

Derivative gains and losses included in AOCI were reclassified into earnings at the time the related interest expense was recognized or the settlement of the related commitment occurred. Interest expense from swaps was $1.7 million and $3.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively, and was recorded in Net interest expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss).

In April 2011, as part of our planned debt issuance to fund the Clean Process Technologies (“CPT”) acquisition, we entered into interest rate swap contracts to hedge movement in interest rates through the expected date of closing for a portion of the expected fixed rate debt offering. The swaps had a notional amount of $400.0 million with an average interest rate of 3.65%. In May 2011, upon the sale of the 2021 Notes, the swaps were terminated at a cost of $11.0 million. Because we used the contracts to hedge future interest payments, this was recorded in AOCI in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and will be amortized as interest expense over the 10 year life of the 2021 Notes. The ending unrealized net loss in AOCI was $8.6 million and $9.2 million at June 29, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively.

Foreign currency contracts

We conduct business in various locations throughout the world and are subject to market risk due to changes in the value of foreign currencies in relation to our reporting currency, the U.S. dollar. We manage our economic and transaction exposure to certain market-based risks through the use of foreign currency derivative financial instruments. Our objective in holding these derivatives is to reduce the volatility of net earnings and cash flows associated with changes in foreign currency exchange rates. The majority of our foreign currency contracts have an original maturity date of less than one year. At June 29, 2013 and December 31, 2012, we had outstanding foreign currency derivative contracts with gross notional U.S. dollar equivalent amounts of $135.6 million and $163.7 million, respectively. The impact of these contracts on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss) is not material for any period presented.

Gains or losses on foreign currency contracts designated as hedges are reclassified out of AOCI and into Selling, general and administrative expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss) upon settlement. Such reclassifications during the three and six months ended June 29, 2013 were not material.

Fair value measurements

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Assets and liabilities measured at fair value are classified using the following hierarchy, which is based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation as of the measurement date:

Level 1:	Valuation is based on observable inputs such as quoted market prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.
Level 2:	Valuation is based on inputs such as quoted market prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets or other inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.
Level 3:	Valuation is based upon other unobservable inputs that are significant to the fair value measurement.

In making fair value measurements, observable market data must be used when available. When inputs used to measure fair value fall within different levels of the hierarchy, the level within which the fair value measurement is categorized is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

Fair value of financial instruments

The following methods were used to estimate the fair values of each class of financial instruments:

• short-term financial instruments (cash and cash equivalents, accounts and notes receivable, accounts and notes payable and variable-rate debt) — recorded amount approximates fair value because of the short maturity period;

• long-term fixed-rate debt, including current maturities — fair value is based on market quotes available for issuance of debt with similar terms, which are inputs that are classified as Level 2 in the valuation hierarchy defined by the accounting guidance; and

• interest rate swaps and foreign currency contract agreements — fair values are determined through the use of models that consider various assumptions, including time value, yield curves, as well as other relevant economic measures, which are inputs that are classified as Level 2 in the valuation hierarchy defined by the accounting guidance.

The recorded amounts and estimated fair values of total debt, excluding the effects of derivative financial instruments, were as follows:

	June 29, 2013				December 31, 2012
In millions	Recorded Amount		Fair Value		Recorded Amount		Fair Value
Variable rate debt	$	713.4	$	713.4	$	427.7	$	427.7
Fixed rate debt	2,026.9		1,995.3		2,029.7		2,081.3
Total debt	$	2,740.3	$	2,708.7	$	2,457.4	$	2,509.0

Financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring and nonrecurring basis were as follows:

	June 29, 2013
In millions	Level 1		Level 2			Level 3		Total
Recurring fair value measurements
Foreign currency contract assets	$	—	$	2.2		$	—	$	2.2
Foreign currency contract liabilities	—		(0.5		)	—		(0.5		)
Deferred compensation plan (1)	28.4		—			—		28.4
Total recurring fair value measurements	$	28.4	$	1.7		$	—	$	30.1

	December 31, 2012
In millions	Level 1		Level 2			Level 3		Total
Recurring fair value measurements
Foreign currency contract assets	$	—	$	2.9		$	—	$	2.9
Foreign currency contract liabilities	—		(0.5		)	—		(0.5		)
Deferred compensation plan (1)	22.4		—			—		22.4
Total recurring fair value measurements	$	22.4	$	2.4		$	—	$	24.8
Nonrecurring fair value measurements
Trade name intangibles (2)	$	—	$	—		$	63.7	$	63.7
Total nonrecurring fair value measurement	$	—	$	—		$	63.7	$	63.7

(1) Deferred compensation plan assets include mutual funds and cash equivalents for payment of certain non-qualified benefits for retired, terminated and active employees. The fair value of these assets was based on quoted market prices in active markets.

(2) In the fourth quarter of 2012, we completed our annual intangible assets impairment review. As a result, we recorded a pre-tax non-cash impairment charge of $60.7 million for trade names intangibles. The fair value of trade names is measured using the relief-from-royalty method. This method assumes the trade name has value to the extent that the owner is relieved of the obligation to pay royalties for the benefits received from them. This method requires us to estimate the future revenue for the related brands, the appropriate royalty rate and the weighted average cost of capital.
