Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract] |
Derivatives and Hedging Activities | Derivatives and Hedging Activities The Company is exposed to certain risks arising from both its business operations and economic conditions and principally manages its exposures to a wide variety of business and operational risks through management of its core business activities. The Company, on a routine basis and in the normal course of business, experiences expenses denominated in Swiss Franc ("CHF"), Canadian Dollar ("CAD") and Great British Pound ("GBP"). Such expenses expose the Company to exchange rate fluctuations between these foreign currencies and the U.S. Dollar ("USD"). The Company occasionally uses derivative financial instruments, in the form of forward contracts, to mitigate a portion of the risk associated with adverse movements in these foreign currency exchange rates during a twelve-month window. Currency forward contracts involve fixing the exchange rate for delivery of a specified amount of foreign currency on a specified date. The Company's accounting treatment for these instruments is based on whether or not the instruments are designated as a hedging instrument. The Company applied hedge accounting to all foreign currency derivatives and designated these hedges as cash flow hedges. The Company's foreign currency forward contracts had the following outstanding balances:
|  | October 27, 2024 |  | January 28, 2024
(in thousands, except number of instruments) |  | Number of Instruments |  | Sell Notional Value |  | Buy Notional Value |  | Number of Instruments |  | Sell Notional Value |  | Buy Notional Value
Sell USD/Buy CAD Forward Contract |  | 1 |  | $ | 1,215 |  |  | $ | 1,650 |  |  | 10 |  | $ | 12,899 |  |  | $ | 17,550 |
Total |  | 1 |  |  |  |  |  | 10 |  |  |  |
These foreign currency forward contracts were designated as cash flows hedges and the unrealized gains or losses, net of tax, were recorded as a component of "Accumulated other comprehensive income or loss, net" ("AOCI") in the Balance Sheets. The effective portions of the cash flow hedges were recorded in AOCI until the hedged items were recognized in either "Selling, general and administrative expense" or "Product development and engineering expense" in the Statements of Operations once the foreign exchange contract matured, offsetting the underlying hedged expenses. Any ineffective portions of the cash flow hedges were recorded in "Non-operating income, net" in the Statements of Operations. The Company presents its derivative assets and liabilities at their gross fair values in the Balance Sheets. In the first quarter of fiscal year 2024, the Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement with a 2.75 year term to hedge the variability of interest payments on $150.0 million of debt outstanding on the Term Loans at a Term SOFR rate of 3.58%, plus a variable margin and spread based on the Company's consolidated leverage ratio. In the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2023, the Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement with a 5 year term to hedge the variability of interest payments on $450.0 million of debt outstanding on the Term Loans at a Term SOFR rate of 3.44%, plus a variable margin and spread based on the Company's consolidated leverage ratio. The interest rate swap agreements have been designated as cash flow hedges and unrealized gains or losses, net of income tax, are recorded as a component of AOCI in the Balance Sheets. As the various settlements are made on a monthly basis, the realized gain or loss on the settlements are recorded in "Interest expense" in the Statements of Operations. The interest rate swap agreements resulted in a realized gain of $2.6 million for the three months ended October 27, 2024, compared to a realized gain of $2.8 million for the three months ended October 29, 2023. The interest rate swap agreements resulted in a realized gain of $8.2 million for the nine months ended October 27, 2024, compared to a realized gain of $7.4 million for the nine months ended October 29, 2023. The fair values of the Company's instruments that qualify as cash flow hedges in the Balance Sheets were as follows:
(in thousands) |  | October 27, 2024 |  | January 28, 2024
Interest rate swap agreement |  | $ | 3,641 |  |  | $ | 7,144 |
Foreign currency forward contracts |  | — |  |  | 168 |
Total other current assets |  | $ | 3,641 |  |  | $ | 7,312 |
Interest rate swap agreement |  | $ | 947 |  |  | $ | 178 |
Total other long-term assets |  | $ | 947 |  |  | $ | 178 |
Foreign currency forward contracts |  | $ | 27 |  |  | $ | — |
Total accrued liabilities |  | $ | 27 |  |  | $ | — |
Interest rate swap agreement |  | — |  |  | 7 |
Total other long-term liabilities |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | 7 |
During fiscal year 2021, the Company entered into an economic hedge program that used total return swap contracts to hedge the market risk associated with the unfunded portion of the Company's deferred compensation liability. The total return swap contracts generally had a duration of one month and were rebalanced and re-hedged at the end of each monthly term. While the total return swap contracts were treated as economic hedges, the Company did not designate them as hedges for accounting purposes. The total return swap contracts were measured at fair value and recognized in the Balance Sheets in "Accrued Liabilities" if the instruments were in a loss position and in "Other Current Assets" if the instruments were in a gain position. Unrealized gains and losses, as well as realized gains and losses for settlements, on the total return swap contracts were recognized in "Selling, general and administrative expenses" in the Statements of Operations. The total return swap contracts, which matured during fiscal year 2024, resulted in net loss recognized in earnings of $0.9 million and $0.7 million for the three and nine months ended October 29, 2023, respectively.
