DERIVATIVES
17. DERIVATIVES
We enter into foreign currency forward and option contracts to offset the earnings impact that foreign exchange rate fluctuations would otherwise have on certain monetary liabilities that are denominated in nonfunctional currencies.
Cash Flow Hedging Instruments
We enter into foreign currency forward contracts that are designated as cash flow hedges. The settlement of these derivatives results in reclassifications from accumulated other comprehensive loss to earnings for the period in which the settlement of these instruments occurs. The maximum period for which we hedge our cash flow using these instruments is 12 months. Accordingly, at December 31, 2020, all of our open foreign currency forward contracts had maturities of one year or less.
We had on
ly one
 foreign currency exchange contract designated as a cash flow hedge at December 31, 2020
, the total notional value of which
 
was $
1,000
, and such contract subsequently expired during
January 2021
.
The impact from foreign exchange derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges was as follows:

At December 31, 2020, we expected an estimated $402
pre-tax
loss to be reclassified into earnings to reflect the fixed prices obtained from foreign exchange hedging within the next 12 months.
Derivatives Not Designated as Hedging Instruments
We have also entered into foreign currency forward and option contracts that are either not designated as hedges or did not qualify for hedge accounting. These derivative instruments were effective economic hedges for all of the periods presented. The fair value gains and losses on these contracts are recognized in earnings as a component of selling, general and administrative expenses.
We had only one 
foreign currency exchange contract not designated as a hedging instrument at December 31, 2020
, the total notional value of which
 
was $
4,600
, and such contract subsequently expired during
January 2021
.
We recognized (losses) gains of $(490), $(540)
,
and $129 from foreign currency forward and option contracts not designated as hedging instruments in our consolidated statements of income for 2020, 2019
,
and 2018, respectively.
The following table summarizes the fair value of derivative instruments, which consist solely of foreign exchange contracts, included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities in our consolidated balance sheets. See Note 18.
