Derivative Instruments - Cash Flow Hedges

The Company’s cash flow hedges are designed to mitigate the risk of exposure to variability in expected future cash flows of recognized assets, liabilities or any unrecognized forecasted transactions. The Company entered into various interest rate swaps that are designated as cash flow hedges on a substantial portion of the Company’s outstanding debt. The interest rate swaps reduce the variability of cash flow payments for the Company by converting the variable interest rate on the Company’s long-term debt to an average fixed interest rate of 3.23%. These contracts, carried at fair value, have maturities of approximately three years. All hedging relationships were highly effective at achieving offsetting changes in cash flows attributable to the risk being hedged. The Company used a regression analysis at hedge inception to assess the effectiveness of cash flow hedge and periodically thereafter.

The Company records gains and losses from the changes in the fair value of these instruments as a component of other comprehensive (loss) income. Deferred gains or losses from these designated cash flow hedges are reclassified into earnings in the period that the hedged items affect earnings. The Company does not offset fair value amounts recognized for derivative instruments in its condensed consolidated balance sheets for presentation purposes. The following table summarizes the fair value of the hedging instruments, presented on a gross basis, as of March 29, 2025 and December 28, 2024.
