Derivatives and Fair Value [Text Block]
Derivatives and Fair Value Measurements
All derivatives are recognized in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets at their estimated fair value. The Company uses derivatives to manage the variability of foreign currency obligations and interest rates. The Company has cash flow hedges related to variable rate debt and forecasted foreign currency obligations, in addition to fair value hedges to manage foreign currency exposures associated with certain foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities. The Company does not enter into derivatives for speculative purposes. Changes in the fair value of the derivatives that qualify as cash flow hedges are recorded in “Accumulated other comprehensive income” in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets until earnings are affected by the variability of the cash flows. Changes in the fair value of the derivatives related to recognized foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities are recorded in "Other income (expense)" in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income.
The Company enters into forward currency exchange contracts on a rolling basis. The Company had cash flow hedges outstanding with a notional value of $64.6 million as of September 27, 2014 and a notional value of $71.0 million as of September 28, 2013. These forward currency contracts fix the exchange rates for the settlement of future foreign currency obligations that have yet to be realized. The total fair value of the forward currency exchange contracts was a $0.8 million asset as of September 27, 2014 and a $1.0 million liability as of September 28, 2013.
The Company had additional forward currency exchange contracts outstanding with a notional value of $37.9 million as of September 27, 2014. The Company has not designated these derivative instruments as hedging instruments. The net settlement amount (fair value) related to these contracts is recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as either a current or long-term asset or liability, depending on the term, and as an element of other income (expense). The total fair value of these derivatives was a $1.5 million asset as of September 27, 2014. No contracts were outstanding as of September 28, 2013.
On June 4, 2013, the Company entered into an interest rate swap contract to replace the three interest rate swap contracts that matured on April 4, 2013, as described below. The new interest rate swap contract is related to the borrowings outstanding under the Company's Credit Facility, as amended. This interest rate swap pays the Company variable interest at the one month LIBOR rate, and the Company pays the counterparty a fixed interest rate. The fixed interest rate for the contract is 0.875%. Based on the terms of the interest rate swap contract and the underlying borrowings outstanding under the Credit Facility, as amended, the interest rate contract was determined to be effective, and thus qualifies as a cash flow hedge. As such, any changes in the fair value of the interest rate swap are recorded in "Accumulated other comprehensive income" on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets until earnings are affected by the variability of cash flows. The total fair value of the interest rate swap contract was a $0.2 million asset as of September 27, 2014 and a $0.1 million asset as of September 28, 2013. The notional amount of the Company's interest rate swap was $75.0 million as of both September 27, 2014 and September 28, 2013.
The Company entered into three interest rate swap contracts related to the term loans under its prior credit facility that had an initial total notional value of $150.0 million and matured on April 4, 2013, which resulted in a $2.0 million discrete tax benefit in fiscal 2013. The fixed interest rates for each of these contracts were 4.415%, 4.490% and 4.435%, respectively. These interest rate swap contracts were originally entered into to convert $150.0 million of the variable rate term loan under the prior credit facility into fixed rate debt. Based on the terms of the interest rate swap contracts and the underlying debt, these interest rate contracts were determined to be effective, and thus qualified as a cash flow hedge. As such, any changes in the fair value of these interest rate swaps were recorded in “Accumulated other comprehensive income” on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets until earnings were affected by the variability of cash flows.

The fair value of interest rate swaps and foreign currency forward contracts is determined using a market approach, which includes obtaining directly or indirectly observable values from third parties active in the relevant markets. The primary input in the fair value of the interest rate swaps is the relevant LIBOR forward curve. Inputs in the fair value of the foreign currency forward contracts include prevailing forward and spot prices for currency and interest rate forward curves.
