The fair values of lead forward contracts are calculated using observable prices for lead as quoted on the London Metal Exchange (“LME”) and, therefore, were classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy, as described in Note 1- Summary of Significant Accounting Policies to the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements included in the 2023 Annual Report. The fair values for foreign currency forward contracts and net investment hedges are based upon current quoted market prices and are classified as Level 2 based on the nature of the underlying market in which these derivatives are traded. The fair value of interest rate swap agreements are based on observable prices as quoted for receiving the variable one month term SOFR and paying fixed interest rates and, therefore, were classified as Level 2. Financial Instruments The fair values of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents approximate carrying value due to their short maturities. The fair value of the Company’s short-term debt and borrowings under the Third Amended Credit Facility (as defined in Note 11), approximate their respective carrying value, as they are variable rate debt and the terms are comparable to market terms as of the balance sheet dates and are classified as Level 2. In fiscal 2020, the Company issued its 4.375% Senior Notes due December 15, 2027 (the “2027 Notes”), with an original face value of $300,000. The fair value of the 2027 Notes represents the trading values based upon quoted market prices and are classified as Level 2. The 2027 Notes were trading at approximately 92% and 92% of face value on July 2, 2023 and March 31, 2023, respectively. The carrying amounts and estimated fair values of the Company’s derivatives and Senior Notes at July 2, 2023 and March 31, 2023 were as follows:
|  | July 2, 2023 |  | March 31, 2023

(1)Represents lead, foreign currency forward contracts, interest rate swaps, and net investment hedges (see Note 6 for asset and liability positions of the lead, foreign currency forward contracts, interest rate swaps, and net investment hedges at July 2, 2023 and March 31, 2023). (2)The fair value amount of the Senior Notes at July 2, 2023 and March 31, 2023 represent the trading value of the instruments. Non-recurring fair value measurements On June 29, 2022, the Company committed to a plan to close its facility in Ooltewah, Tennessee, which focused on manufacturing flooded motive power batteries for electric forklifts. Management determined that future demand for traditional motive power flooded cells will decrease as customers transition to maintenance free product solutions in lithium and Thin Plate Pure Lead (TPPL). As a result, the Company concluded that the carrying value of the asset group was not recoverable and recorded during the first quarter of fiscal 2023 a write-off of $7,300 of the fixed assets, for which there is expected to be no salvageable value. The valuation technique used to measure the fair value of fixed assets was a combination of the income and market approaches. The inputs used to measure the fair value of these fixed assets under the income approach were largely unobservable and accordingly were classified as Level 3.
