The following table sets forth the carrying amounts and fair values of the Company’s significant financial instruments for which the carrying amount differs from the fair value.


	December 31, 2024				December 31, 2023
	Carrying Amount		Fair Value		Carrying Amount		Fair Value
Long-term debt, net of current portion	$	4,985,496	$	4,800,455	$	2,998,002	$	2,852,143

The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents and short-term debt approximates fair value. The fair value of long-term debt is determined based on recent trade information in the financial markets of the Company’s public debt or is determined by discounting future cash flows using interest rates available to the Company for issues with similar terms and maturities, which is considered a Level 2 fair value measurement.

At December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company had derivative financial instruments outstanding to hedge anticipated transactions and certain asset and liability related cash flows. These contracts, which have maturities ranging through December 2025, qualify as cash flow hedges under GAAP. For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as a cash flow hedge, the gain or loss on the derivative instrument is reported as a component of other comprehensive income and reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings and is presented in the same income statement line item as the earnings effect of the hedged item. Cash flows from derivative

Certain derivative contracts entered into to manage the cost of anticipated purchases of natural gas and aluminum have been designated by the Company as cash flow hedges. At December 31, 2024, there were no natural gas swaps covering anticipated natural gas usage in 2025 and aluminum swaps covering 3,546 metric tons of aluminum represented approximately 24% of anticipated aluminum usage for 2025. The fair values of the Company’s commodity cash flow hedges netted to a gain position of $652 and a loss position of $(41) at December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. The amount of the gain included in accumulated other comprehensive loss at December 31, 2024, expected to be reclassified to the income statement during the next twelve months is $652. The Company also has certain natural gas hedges that are not designated as cash flow hedges. See “Non-Designated Derivatives” below for a discussion of these hedges.

The Company has entered into forward contracts to hedge certain anticipated foreign currency denominated sales and purchases expected to occur in 2025. The net positions of these contracts at December 31, 2024, were as follows (in thousands):

The fair value of foreign currency cash flow hedges related to forecasted sales and purchases netted to a loss position of $(1,841) at December 31, 2024, and a gain position of $1,502 at December 31, 2023. The amount of the loss expected to be reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive loss to the income statement during the next twelve months is $(1,841).

In 2023, the Company became a party to cross-currency swap agreements with a total notional amount of $500,000 to effectively convert a portion of the Company’s fixed-rate U.S. dollar denominated debt, including the semi-annual interest payments, to fixed-rate euro-denominated debt. The swap agreements, which had a maturity of December 18, 2026, provided for the Company to receive semi-annual interest payments in U.S. dollars at a fixed rate and to make semi-annual interest payments in euros at a fixed rate. The risk management objective of entering into the swap agreements was to manage foreign currency risk relating to net investments in certain European subsidiaries denominated in euros. The agreements were designated as net investment hedges for accounting purposes. On April 15, 2024, as a result of the strengthening of the U.S. dollar against the euro, as well as a reduction in the differential between U.S. and European interest rates, the Company terminated its swap agreements and received a net cash settlement of $9,068. The foreign currency translation gain of approximately $3,143, net of tax, is included as a component of “Accumulated other comprehensive loss.”

Following the unwind of the swaps, the Company entered into new cross-currency swap agreements with a total notional amount of $500,000 in April 2024 to effectively convert a portion of the Company’s fixed-rate U.S. dollar-denominated debt, including the semi-annual interest payments, to fixed-rate euro-denominated debt. The new swap agreements, which have a maturity of May 1, 2027 share the same risk management objective as the terminated cross-currency swap agreements and are also designated as net investment hedges for accounting purposes.

In December 2024, the Company entered into additional cross-currency swap agreements with a total notional amount of $1,500,000, including $500,000 maturing on September 1, 2026, $500,000 maturing on September 1, 2029, and $500,000 maturing on May 1, 2030. The swaps effectively convert a portion of the Company’s fixed-rate U.S. dollar-denominated debt, including the semi-annual interest payments, to fixed-rate euro-denominated debt at the prevailing market rate at execution. The new swap agreements share the same risk management objective as the Company’s previously existing cross-currency swap agreements and are also designated as net investment hedges for accounting purposes.

The gain or loss on the net investment hedge derivative instruments is included in the “Foreign currency translation” component of “Accumulated other comprehensive loss” until the net investment is sold, diluted, or liquidated. Interest payments received for the cross-currency swaps and the related excluded components are excluded from the net investment hedge effectiveness assessment and are recorded in “Interest expense” in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. The assumptions used in measuring fair value of the cross-currency swaps are considered level 2 inputs, which are based upon the Euro-to-U.S. dollar exchange rate market.

The fair value of the Company’s net investment hedges was a gain position of $11,919 and a loss position of $(5,073) at December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. Foreign currency translation gain of $8,880 (net of income taxes of $3,039) and loss of $3,779 (net of income taxes of $1,294) were reported as components of “Accumulated other comprehensive loss” within “Foreign currency items” at December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.

The Company routinely enters into other derivative contracts which are not designated for hedge accounting treatment under ASC 815, “Derivatives and Hedging.” As such, changes in fair value of these non-designated derivatives are recorded directly to income and expense in the periods that they occur.

The Company routinely enters into forward contracts or swaps to economically hedge the currency exposure of intercompany debt and foreign currency denominated receivables and payables. The net currency positions of these non-designated contracts at December 31, 2024, were as follows (in thousands):


Currency	Action	Quantity
USD Contracts
Colombian peso	purchase	66,306,243
Indonesian rupiah	purchase	20,247,238

The Company has entered into non-designated derivative contracts to manage the cost of anticipated purchases of natural gas. At December 31, 2024, these contracts consisted of natural gas swaps covering approximately 5.2 million metric million British thermal units (“MMBTUs”) representing approximately 75.5% of anticipated usage in North America for 2025.

In anticipation of the offering of the Notes (see Note 11 for additional information), the Company entered into treasury lock derivative instruments with eleven banks, with a total notional principal amount of $900,000, on August 29, 2024. These instruments had the risk management objective of reducing the Company’s exposure to increases in the underlying Treasury index up to the date of pricing of the Notes. The derivatives were settled when the Notes priced on September 17, 2024, with the Company recognizing a loss on the settlement of $(11,088). The loss is included in “Interest expense” in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Income for the year ended December 31, 2024.
