Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]

Derivative Financial Instruments

DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Derivative instruments – The Company's primary market exposures are to interest rates and foreign exchange rates. The Company from time to time may use certain derivative financial instruments to help manage these exposures. The Company executes these instruments with financial institutions it judges to be credit-worthy. The Company does not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes.

The Company recognizes all derivative financial instruments as either assets or liabilities at fair value in the consolidated balance sheets. During the second quarter of 2018, the Company entered into foreign currency forward contracts to hedge the value of intercompany dividends declared in Euros by the Company's German subsidiary. The dividends were paid in the second and third quarters of 2018. These contracts were not designated as hedging instruments for accounting purposes. There are no foreign currency forward contracts outstanding at September 30, 2018. The Company also has an interest rate swap that is classified as a cash flow hedge of its variable rate debt.

The fair value amounts in the consolidated balance sheets were:

						Notional Amounts1																		Other Assets																		Other Current Liabilities
						September 30,						December 31,						September 30,						December 31,						September 30,						December 31,
						2018						2017						2018						2017						2018						2017
			Derivative designated as a cash flow hedge:
			Interest rate swap			$	21,078					$	21,969					$	13					$	16					$	—					$	—

  (1) Notional amounts represent the gross contract/notional amount of the derivatives outstanding.
