10. | Derivatives
Hedge Accounting and Hedging Programs We recognize all derivative instruments as either assets or liabilities in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and measure them at fair value. Gains and losses resulting from changes in fair value are accounted for depending on the use of the derivative and whether it is designated and qualifies for hedge accounting. Balance Sheet Hedging Hedges of Foreign Currency Assets and Liabilities We hedge portions of our net recognized foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities with foreign exchange forward contracts to reduce the risk that the value of these assets and liabilities will be adversely affected by changes in exchange rates. At March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the notional amounts of foreign currency forward exchange contracts outstanding not designated as hedging instruments were $56,269 and $60,858, respectively. Cash Flow Hedging Hedges of Forecasted Foreign Currency Transactions In countries outside the U.S., we transact business in U.S. dollars and in various other currencies. We may use foreign exchange option contracts or forward contracts to hedge certain cash flow exposures resulting from changes in these foreign currency exchange rates. These foreign exchange contracts, carried at fair value, have maturities of up to one year. We enter into these foreign exchange contracts to hedge a portion of our forecasted foreign currency denominated revenue in the normal course of business, and accordingly, they are not speculative in nature. The notional amounts of outstanding foreign currency forward contracts designated as cash flow hedges were $3,071 and $2,928 as of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively. The notional amounts of outstanding foreign currency option contracts designated as cash flow hedges were $8,410 and $8,619 as of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively. Foreign Currency Derivatives We use foreign currency exchange rate derivatives to hedge our exposure to fluctuations in exchange rates for anticipated intercompany cash transactions between Tennant Company and its subsidiaries. We entered into Euro to U.S. dollar foreign exchange cross currency swaps for all of the anticipated cash flows associated with an intercompany loan from a wholly-owned European subsidiary. We enter into these foreign exchange cross currency swaps to hedge the foreign currency denominated cash flows associated with this intercompany loan, and accordingly, they are not speculative in nature. These cross currency swaps are designated as cash flow hedges. The hedged cash flows as of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 included €179,400 and €181,200 of total notional values, respectively. As of March 31, 2018 the aggregate scheduled interest payments over the course of the loan and related swaps amounted to €29,400. The scheduled maturity and principal payment of the loan and related swaps of €150,000 are due in April 2022. The fair value of derivative instruments on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 were as follows:
