During the nine months ended September 30, 2016, we repurchased 4.0 million shares at a total cost of $525 pursuant to a share repurchase program authorized by our Board of Directors. Net unrealized currency gains or losses resulting from the translation of assets and liabilities of foreign subsidiaries, except those in highly inflationary economies, are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income ("AOCI"). For these operations, changes in exchange rates generally do not affect cash flows; therefore, unrealized translation is recorded in AOCI rather than net income. Upon sale or substantially complete liquidation of any of these subsidiaries, the applicable unrealized translation would be removed from AOCI and reported as part of the gain or loss on the sale or liquidation. Also included in unrealized translation are the effects of foreign exchange rate changes on intercompany balances of a long-term investment nature and transactions designated as hedges of net foreign investments. The change in net unrealized currency translation for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 was primarily due to the strengthening of most foreign currencies versus the U.S. dollar, including the Brazilian real, South Korean won, Australian dollar, euro and Russian ruble, partially offset by the weakening of the British pound sterling. The changes in the components of AOCI attributable to Kimberly-Clark, net of tax, are as follows:
|  | Unrealized Translation |  | Defined Benefit Pension Plans |  | Other Postretirement Benefit Plans |  | Cash Flow Hedges and Other
Balance as of December 31, 2014 |  | $ | (1,335 | ) |  | $ | (1,924 | ) |  | $ | (37 | ) |  | $ | (16 | )

(a) | Included in computation of net periodic pension costs (see Note 4).
During the first quarter of 2015, we acquired the remaining 49.9 percent interest in our subsidiary in Israel, Hogla-Kimberly, Ltd., for $151. As our subsidiary in Turkey was wholly-owned by our subsidiary in Israel, through this acquisition we also effectively acquired the remaining 49.9 percent interest in our subsidiary in Turkey, Kimberly-Clark Tuketim Mallari Sanayi ve Ticaret A.s. The purchase of additional ownership in an already controlled subsidiary is treated as an equity transaction with no gain or loss recognized in consolidated net income or comprehensive income. The effect of the change in ownership interest is as follows:
|  | Nine Months Ended September 30, 2015
Net income attributable to Kimberly-Clark Corporation |  | $ | 680 |
Decrease in Kimberly-Clark Corporation's additional paid-in capital for acquisition |  | (94 | )
Change from net income attributable to Kimberly-Clark Corporation and transfers to noncontrolling interests |  | $ | 586 |
