Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts and Hedging

At March 31, 2016, the Company had foreign currency exchange contracts designated as cash-flow hedges with notional amounts totaling approximately $105,000 held by seven counterparties, which will mature at various dates over the next 12 months. At March 31, 2015, the Company had foreign currency exchange contracts designated as cash flow hedges with notional amounts totaling approximately $46,000, held by four counterparties. During the year ended March 31, 2016, the Company settled foreign currency exchange contracts designated as cash flow hedges with notional amounts totaling approximately $46,000 that were entered into in the prior fiscal year and approximately $32,000 that were entered in fiscal year 2016. The Company also entered into, and settled, non-designated derivative contracts with total notional amounts of approximately $261,000.

The nonperformance risk of the Company and the counterparties did not have a material impact on the fair value of the derivatives. During the year ended March 31, 2016, the hedges remained effective. The effective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative is reported in OCI and reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. At March 31, 2016, the total amount in accumulated OCI (refer to Note 11) is expected to be reclassified into income within the next 15 months.
