Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract] |
Derivative Financial Instruments | Derivative Financial Instruments In the normal course of business, the Company is exposed to certain risks related to fluctuations in interest rates. The Company uses interest rate swaps to manage risks from these market fluctuations. The financial instruments used by the Company are straight-forward, non-leveraged instruments. The counterparties to these financial instruments are financial institutions with strong credit ratings. The Company maintains control over the size of positions entered into with any one counterparty and regularly monitors the credit ratings of these institutions. The Company also utilizes foreign exchange spot and forward contracts to manage the risk associated with exposures to foreign currency risk. In addition, certain foreign exchange forward contracts related to risks associated with intercompany inventory purchases and are designated as cash flow hedging instruments. Certain forward exchange forward contracts relate to intercompany debt and associated interest payments and certain accounts receivable and accounts payable and are considered to be economic hedges. The fair value of the interest rate swap and foreign exchange forward contracts is calculated as described in Note 7, "Fair Value Measurements," taking into consideration foreign currency rates and the current creditworthiness of the counterparties or the Company, as applicable. Interest Rate Swap Agreement The Company is exposed to changes in interest rates on its variable rate debt. In order to manage this risk, on August 8, 2011, the Company entered into a four-year interest rate swap agreement to manage interest costs and the risk associated with changing interest rates. The Company designated this interest rate swap agreement as a cash flow hedge of floating rate borrowings and expects the hedge to be highly effective in offsetting fluctuations in the designated interest payments resulting from changes in the benchmark interest rate. The gains and losses on the designated interest rate swap agreement will offset losses and gains on the transactions being hedged. The Company formally documented the effectiveness of this qualifying hedge instrument (both at the inception of the interest rate swap agreement and on an ongoing basis) in offsetting changes in cash flows of the hedged transaction. The fair value of the interest rate swap agreement is calculated as described in Note 7, “Fair Value Measurements”, taking into consideration current interest rates and the current creditworthiness of the counterparties or the Company, as applicable. As a result of this interest rate swap agreement, the Company pays interest at a fixed rate and receives payments at a variable rate which began on December 30, 2011. As of this date, the interest rate swap agreement effectively fixed the floating LIBOR-based interest rate to 1.25% plus the applicable margin on $250.0 million of the outstanding balance under the Company’s variable rate debt. On December 30, 2013, the outstanding notional principal amount of the interest rate swap agreement reduced to $150.0 million. The interest rate swap agreement expires on December 30, 2015. The Company has selected the LIBOR-based rate on the hedged portion of the Company’s variable rate debt during the term of the interest rate swap agreement. The effective portion of the change in value of the interest rate swap agreement is reflected as a component of comprehensive income and recognized as interest expense, net as payments are paid or accrued. The remaining gain or loss in excess of the cumulative change in the present value of the future cash flows of the hedged item, if any (i.e., the ineffective portion) or hedge components excluded from the assessment of effectiveness are recognized as interest expense, net during the current period. These amounts are immaterial to the Consolidated Financial Statements. Foreign Exchange Forward Contracts Cash Flow Hedges The Company is exposed to foreign currency risk related to intercompany and third party inventory purchases denominated in foreign currencies. To manage the risk associated with fluctuations in foreign currencies related to these transactions, the Company enters into foreign exchange forward contracts. As of December 31, 2014, the Company had foreign exchange forward contracts designated as cash flow hedges to buy U.S dollars and to sell Canadian dollars with a notional amount outstanding of $46.5 million. These foreign exchange forward contracts have maturities ranging from January 2015 to December 2015. The Company designates certain foreign exchange forward contracts as hedging instruments, and the contracts qualify as cash flow hedges. The effectiveness of the cash flow hedge contracts, excluding time value, is assessed prospectively and retrospectively on a monthly basis using regression analysis, as well as using other timing and probability criteria. To receive hedge accounting treatment, all hedging relationships are formally documented at the inception of the hedges and must be highly effective in offsetting changes to future cash flows on hedged transactions. The effective portion of the cash flow hedge contracts' gains or losses resulting from changes in the fair value of these hedges is initially reported, net of tax, as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income until the underlying hedged item is reflected in the Company's accompanying Consolidated Statements of Income, at which time the effective amount in accumulated other comprehensive income is reclassified to cost of sales in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Income. The Company expects to reclassify a gain of approximately $1.4 million, net of tax, over the next 12 months based on December 31, 2014 exchange rates. In the event that the gains or losses in accumulated other comprehensive income are deemed to be ineffective, the ineffective portion of gains or losses resulting from changes in fair value, if any, is reclassified to other expense, net on the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Income. During the current reporting period, all forecasted transactions occurred and, therefore, there were no such gains or losses reclassified to other expense, net. These amounts are immaterial to the Consolidated Financial Statements. Economic Hedges The Company is also exposed to foreign currency risk related to intercompany debt and associated interest payments and certain accounts receivable and accounts payable. To manage the risk associated with fluctuations in foreign currencies related to these assets and liabilities, the Company enters into foreign exchange forward contracts. The Company considers these contracts to be economic hedges. Accordingly, changes in the fair value of these instruments affect earnings during the current period. These foreign exchange forward contracts protect against the reduction in value of forecasted foreign currency cash flows resulting from payments in foreign currencies. The fair value of foreign exchange forward contracts are estimated as described in Note 7, “Fair Value Measurements,” taking into consideration foreign currency rates and the current creditworthiness of the counterparties or the Company, as applicable. These amounts are immaterial to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
