Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

We are exposed to foreign currency exchange rate risk arising from transactions in the normal course of business, such as sales to foreign customers not denominated in the seller’s functional currency, foreign operations, and purchases from foreign suppliers. We actively manage the exposure of our foreign currency exchange rate market risk and market fluctuations in commodity prices by entering into various hedging instruments, authorized under our policies that place controls on these activities, with counterparties that are highly rated financial institutions. We are exposed to credit-related losses in the event of non-performance by these counterparties; however, our exposure is generally limited to the unrealized gains in our contracts should any of the counterparties fail to perform as contracted.

Our hedging activities primarily involve use of foreign currency forward exchange contracts and commodity derivatives contracts. These contracts are designated as cash flow hedges at the inception of the contract. We use derivative instruments only in an attempt to limit underlying exposure from foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations and commodity price fluctuations to minimize earnings and cash flow volatility associated with these risks. Decisions on whether to use such contracts are made based on the amount of exposure to the currency or commodity involved and an assessment of the near-term market value for each risk. Our policy is not to allow the use of derivatives for trading or speculative purposes. Our primary foreign currency exchange rate exposures are with the Brazilian Real, the Euro, and the Indian Rupee, against the U.S. Dollar. Our primary commodity risk is the price risk associated with forecasted purchases of materials used in our manufacturing process.

We assess the effectiveness of our futures and forwards contracts using the dollar offset method and de-designate the derivative if it is determined that the derivative will no longer be highly effective at offsetting the cash flows of the hedged item. At the time a derivative is de-designated, any losses recorded in other comprehensive income are recognized in our Consolidated Statements of Operations while gains remain in AOCI on our Consolidated Balance Sheets until the original forecasted cash flows occur. All subsequent gains and losses related to the de-designated derivatives are recognized in our Consolidated Statements of Operations.

The notional amount outstanding of derivative contracts designated as cash flow hedges was $21.9 million and $50.9 million at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The notional amount outstanding of de-designated derivative contracts was $12.6 million and $20.4 million at December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively.

We recognized $5.5 million of losses associated with the derivative contracts that have been de-designated during the year ended December 31, 2013. We had gains of $0.1 million in “Other comprehensive income” at December 31, 2013, for derivative contracts that have been de-designated. These gains will be recognized as the forecasted cash flows occur.

The following table presents the fair value of our derivatives designated as hedging instruments in our Consolidated Balance Sheets as of December 31, 2013 and 2012:

As of December 31, 2013, we estimate that we will reclassify into earnings during the next twelve months approximately $0.6 million of losses from the pretax amount recorded in AOCI as the anticipated cash flows occur. In addition, decreases in spot prices below our hedged prices may require us to post cash collateral with our hedge counterparties. At December 31, 2013 and 2012, we were required to post $0.8 million and $0.6 million, respectively, of cash collateral on our hedges, which is recorded in “Restricted cash and cash equivalents” in our Consolidated Balance Sheets.
