Fair Value Measurements

3 Months Ended

Mar. 30, 2024

FASB Accounting Standards Codification Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Additionally, the inputs used to measure fair value are prioritized based on a three-level hierarchy. This hierarchy requires entities to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs.

The three levels of inputs used to measure fair value are as follows:

•Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

•Level 2—Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

•Level 3—Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. This includes certain pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies and similar techniques that use significant unobservable inputs.

Our derivative assets and liabilities represent Level 2 instruments. Level 2 instruments are valued based on observable inputs for quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets. The fair value for the net derivative liabilities as of March 30, 2024 was $11.4 million. We had no derivative assets as of March 30, 2024.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying amounts reflected in the Consolidated Balance Sheets for cash and cash equivalents, receivables, payables, short-term borrowings, and long-term debt approximate their respective fair values, except as otherwise indicated. The carrying values and estimated fair values of our significant outstanding debt as of March 30, 2024 and December 30, 2023 were as follows:


	March 30, 2024				December 30, 2023
(in millions of U.S. dollars)	Carrying Value		Fair Value		Carrying Value		Fair Value
3.875% senior notes due in 2028 1,2	$	481.6	$	468.1	$	494.6	$	477.5
4.375% senior notes due in 2029 1,2	743.1		687.3		742.8		683.1
Total	$	1,224.7	$	1,155.4	$	1,237.4	$	1,160.6

1The fair values were based on the trading levels and bid/offer prices observed by a market participant and are considered Level 2 financial instruments.

2Carrying value of our significant outstanding debt is net of unamortized debt issuance costs as of March 30, 2024 and December 30, 2023.
