Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure
16. Derivatives and Hedging
From time to time, we enter into forward contracts to hedge potential foreign currency gains and losses that arise from transactions denominated in foreign currencies, including intercompany transactions. We may also enter into commodity swap contracts to hedge price changes in nickel that impact raw materials included in our Cost of revenues. During the second quarter of fiscal 2025, we also held forward foreign currency contracts to hedge a portion of our expected non-U.S. dollar-denominated earnings against our reporting currency, the U.S. dollar. These foreign currency exchange contracts will mature in fiscal 2025. We did not elect hedge accounting for these forward foreign currency contracts; however, we may seek to apply hedge accounting in future scenarios. We do not use derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes.
These contracts are not designated as hedging instruments and do not receive hedge accounting treatment; therefore, changes in their fair value are not deferred but are recognized immediately in the Consolidated Statements of Income. At September 30, 2024, we held net foreign currency forward contracts to buy 58.0 million British pounds sterling; and to sell 18.0 million Australian dollars, 6.0 million Canadian dollars, and 1.8 million euros. At September 30, 2024, we held commodity swap contracts to buy 394.5 thousand pounds of nickel.
