Derivative Financial Instruments
Note 8. Derivative Financial Instruments

The company measures the fair value of its derivative portfolio using the fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the principal market for that asset or liability. These measurements are classified into a hierarchy by the inputs used to perform the fair value calculation as follows:

Level 1:    Fair value based on unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets

Level 2:    Modeled fair value with model inputs that are all observable market values

Level 3:    Modeled fair value with at least one model input that is not an observable market value

 

Commodity Price Risk

The company enters into commodity derivatives, designated as cash-flow hedges of existing or future exposure to changes in commodity prices. The company’s primary raw materials are flour, sweeteners, and shortening, along with pulp, paper, and petroleum-based packaging products. Natural gas, which is used as oven fuel, is also an important commodity used for production.

As of December 28, 2013, the company’s commodity hedge portfolio contained derivatives with a fair value of $(11.5) million, which is recorded in the following accounts with fair values measured as indicated (amounts in millions):

The positions held in the portfolio are used to hedge economic exposure to changes in various raw material and production input prices and effectively fix the price, or limit increases in prices, for a period of time extending into fiscal 2013. These instruments are designated as cash-flow hedges. The effective portion of changes in fair value for these derivatives is recorded each period in other comprehensive income (loss), and any ineffective portion of the change in fair value is recorded to current period earnings in selling, distribution and administrative expenses. All of our commodity derivatives at December 28, 2013 qualified for hedge accounting. During fiscal years 2013, 2012, and 2011 there was no material income or expense recorded due to ineffectiveness in current earnings due to changes in the fair value of these instruments.

Interest Rate Risk

The company entered into a treasury rate lock on March 28, 2012 to fix the interest rate for the ten-year 4.375% Senior Notes issued on April 3, 2012. The derivative position was closed when the debt was priced on March 29, 2012 with a cash settlement that offset changes in the benchmark treasury rate between the execution of the treasury rate lock and the debt pricing date. This treasury rate lock was designated as a cash flow hedge and the cash settlement was $3.1 million and is being amortized to interest expense over the term of the notes.

 

The company entered into interest rate swaps with notional amounts of $85.0 million and $65.0 million, respectively, to fix the interest rate on the $150.0 million term loan secured on August 1, 2008 to fund the acquisitions of ButterKrust Bakery and Holsum Bakery, Inc.

The interest rate swap agreements result in the company paying or receiving the difference between the fixed and floating rates at specified intervals calculated based on the notional amount. The interest rate differential to be paid or received was recorded as interest expense. These swap transactions are designated as cash-flow hedges. Accordingly, the effective portion of changes in the fair value of the swaps was recorded each period in other comprehensive income. Any ineffective portions of changes in fair value are recorded to current period earnings in selling, distribution and administrative expenses. There were no interest rate swaps outstanding on December 28, 2013 because the underlying instrument was paid in full.

As of December 29, 2012, the fair value of the interest rate swaps was $(0.9) million, which is recorded in the following accounts with fair values measured as indicated (amounts in millions):

During 2013, 2012 and 2011, interest expense of $0.8 million, $2.8 million, and $4.0 million, respectively, was recognized due to periodic settlements of the interest rate swaps.

The company routinely transfers amounts from other comprehensive income (“OCI”) to earnings as transactions for which cash flow hedges were held occur and impact earnings. Significant situations which do not routinely occur that could cause transfers from OCI to earnings are as follows: (i) an event that causes a hedge to be suddenly ineffective and significant enough that hedge accounting must be discontinued or (ii) cancellation of a forecasted transaction for which a derivative was held as a hedge or a significant and material reduction in volume used of a hedged ingredient such that the company is overhedged and must discontinue hedge accounting. During fiscal 2013, 2012, and 2011 there were no discontinued hedge positions.

 

As of December 28, 2013, the company had entered into the following financial contracts to hedge commodity and interest rate risks:
