Approximately $1 million of the balance in AOCE as of March 31, 2017, is expected to be reclassified into income over the next twelve months.

We use currency forward contracts to manage our exposure to fluctuations in costs caused by variations in Indian Rupee (“INR”) exchange rates. As of March 31, 2017 the notional amount of these derivatives was approximately $2 million and the fair value was nominal. These INR forward contracts are designated as cash flow hedges. The fair value of these currency forward contracts is determined using currency exchange market rates, obtained from reliable, independent, third party banks, as of the balance sheet date. The fair value of forward contracts is subject to changes in currency exchange rates. The Company has no ineffectiveness related to its use of currency forward contracts in connection with INR cash flow hedges.
