Fair Value Measurements

Financial assets and liabilities are to be measured using inputs from 3 levels of the fair value hierarchy in accordance with ASC Topic 820, “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. It establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes observable and unobservable inputs used to measure fair value into the following 3 broad levels:

Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical assets or liabilities. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to Level 1 inputs.

Level 2: Observable prices that are based on inputs not quoted on active markets, but corroborated by market data.

Level 3: Unobservable inputs are used when little or no market data is available. The fair value hierarchy gives the lowest priority to Level 3 inputs.

In determining fair value, the Company utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible. In addition, the Company considers counterparty credit risk in the assessment of fair value.

(1) The fair value of the derivative contracts is calculated as follows:

a. Fair value of a put option contract associated with forecasted sales hedges is calculated using bid and ask

rates for similar contracts.

b. Fair value of regular forward contracts associated with forecasted sales hedges is calculated using the period-end

exchange rate adjusted for current forward points.

c. Fair value of hedges against net assets is calculated at the period end exchange rate adjusted for current forward

points (Level 2). If the hedge has been traded but not settled at period end, the fair value is calculated at the

rate at which the hedge is being settled (Level 1). As a result, transfers from Level 2 to Level 1 of the fair

value hierarchy totaled $6 million each as of April 2, 2016 and December 31, 2015.

(2) The fair value of forward interest rate swaps is based upon a valuation model that uses relevant observable market inputs

at the quoted intervals, such as forward yield curves, and is adjusted for the Company’s credit risk and the interest rate

swap terms. See gross balance reporting in Note 9 Derivative Instruments.
