DERIVATIVES AND HEDGING
Note 8 — DERIVATIVES AND HEDGING
We are exposed to market risks, such as changes in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. To manage the volatility related to these exposures we may enter into various derivative transactions. We formally assess, designate and document, as a hedge of an underlying exposure, the qualifying derivative instrument that will be accounted for as an accounting hedge at inception. Additionally, we assess both at inception and at least quarterly thereafter, whether the financial instruments used in the hedging transaction are effective at offsetting changes in either the fair values or cash flows of the underlying exposures. In accordance with ASU 2017-12, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities (ASU 2017-12), that ongoing assessment will be done qualitatively for highly effective relationships.
As a means of mitigating the impact of currency fluctuations on our Euro investments in foreign entities, we have executed cross-currency swaps, in which we pay fixed-rate interest in Euros and receive fixed-rate interest in U.S. dollars related to our future obligations to exchange euros for U.S. dollars. These cross-currency swaps effectively convert a portion of our U.S. dollar denominated fixed-rate debt to Euro denominated fixed-rate debt.
We currently hold cross-currency swaps with a combined notional amount of €700.0 million maturing in November 2026, €900.0 million maturing in August 2027, €510.5 million maturing in January 2028 and €464.9 million maturing in January 2029. We designated the cross-currency swaps as net investment hedges of our net investment in our European operations under ASU 2017-12 and applied the spot method to these hedges. The changes in fair value of these derivative instruments are recognized within Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (AOCI) to offset the changes in the values of the net investment being hedged. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, a gain of $3.3 million and loss of $207.3 million were recognized within translation adjustments in AOCI, net of tax, respectively, compared to losses of $73.3 million and $20.9 million, net of tax, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively. Included in Interest expense, net on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income is income of $9.0 million and $27.1 million, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to income of $9.7 million and $29.1 million, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, related to interest payments received from counterparties.
All of our derivative assets and liabilities measured at fair value are classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy. We determine the fair value of our derivatives based on valuation methods, which project future cash flows and discount the future amounts to present value using market based observable inputs, including interest rate curves and foreign currency rates.
The fair value of derivative financial instruments recognized in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets is as follows:
