Derivative Instruments and Hedges, Assets [Abstract]

Foreign Currency Contracts

The Company enters into short-term and long-term foreign currency derivative contracts, including forward, swap, and options contracts, to hedge only those currency exposures associated with certain assets and liabilities, primarily accounts receivable, accounts payable, debt, and cash flows denominated in non-functional currencies. Gains and losses on the Company's derivative contracts are designed to offset losses and gains on the assets, liabilities and transactions hedged, and accordingly, generally do not subject the Company to risk of significant accounting losses. The Company hedges committed exposures and does not engage in speculative transactions. The credit risk of these derivative contracts is minimized since the contracts are with large financial institutions and, accordingly, fair value adjustments related to the credit risk of the counterparty financial institutions were not material.

As of September 27, 2024, the aggregate notional amount of the Company’s outstanding foreign currency derivative contracts was $8.1 billion as summarized below:

As of September 27, 2024, the fair value of the Company’s short-term foreign currency contracts was included in other current assets or other current liabilities, as applicable, in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Certain of these contracts

are designed to economically hedge the Company’s exposure to monetary assets and liabilities denominated in a non-functional currency and are not accounted for as hedges under the accounting standards. Accordingly, changes in the fair value of these instruments are recognized in earnings during the period of change as a component of other charges (income), net in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. As of September 27, 2024 and March 31, 2024, the Company also has included net deferred gains and losses in accumulated other comprehensive loss, a component of shareholders’ equity in the condensed consolidated balance sheets, relating to changes in fair value of its foreign currency contracts that are accounted for as cash flow hedges. Deferred loss was immaterial as of September 27, 2024, and is expected to be recognized primarily as a component of cost of sales in the condensed consolidated statements of operations over the next twelve-month period, except for the USD HUF cross currency swaps.

The Company entered into USD HUF cross currency swaps in December 2021 to hedge the foreign currency risk on the HUF bonds due December 2031. The fair value of the cross currency swaps was included in other current liabilities and other non-current liabilities as of September 27, 2024, and in other current assets and other non-current liabilities as of March 31, 2024. The changes in fair value of the USD HUF cross currency swaps are reported in accumulated other comprehensive loss. In addition, corresponding amounts are reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive loss to other charges (income), net to offset the remeasurement of the underlying HUF bond principal, which also impacts the same line.

The following table presents the fair value of the Company’s derivative instruments utilized for foreign currency risk management purposes:


	Fair Values of Derivative Instruments
	Asset Derivatives					Liability Derivatives
		Fair Value					Fair Value
	Balance Sheet Location	September 27, 2024		March 31, 2024		Balance Sheet Location	September 27, 2024		March 31, 2024

The Company has financial instruments subject to master netting arrangements, which provide for the net settlement of all contracts with certain counterparties. The Company does not offset fair value amounts for assets and liabilities recognized for derivative instruments under these arrangements, as such, the asset and liability balances presented in the table above reflect the gross amounts of derivatives in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The impact of netting derivative assets and liabilities is not material to the Company’s financial position for any of the periods presented.
