10. | Derivatives
Hedge Accounting and Hedging Programs We recognize all derivative instruments as either assets or liabilities in our 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. We evaluate hedge effectiveness on our hedges that are designated and qualify for hedge accounting at the inception of the hedge prospectively, as well as retrospectively, and record any ineffective portion of the hedging instruments along with the time value of purchased contracts in the same line item of the income statement as the item being hedged on our Consolidated Statements of Operations. In prior years, ineffective portions of hedging instruments and time value of purchased contracts were recorded in Net Foreign Currency Transaction Losses on our Consolidated Statements of Operations. Our hedging policy establishes maximum limits for each counterparty to mitigate any concentration of risk. Balance Sheet Hedging Hedges of Foreign Currency Assets and Liabilities We hedge 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. These contracts hedge assets and liabilities that are denominated in foreign currencies and are carried at fair value as either assets or liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets with changes in the fair value recorded to Net Foreign Currency Transaction Losses in our Consolidated Statements of Earnings. These contracts do not subject us to material balance sheet risk due to exchange rate movements because gains and losses on these derivatives are intended to offset gains and losses on the assets and liabilities being hedged. At March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the notional amounts of foreign currency forward exchange contracts outstanding not designated as hedging instruments were $53.4 million and $63.4 million, 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 $3.0 million as of March 31, 2019 and none as of December 31, 2018. The notional amounts of outstanding foreign currency option contracts designated as cash flow hedges were $8.3 million and $8.4 million as of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, 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, 2019 and December 31, 2018 included €172.2 million and €174.0 million of total notional values, respectively. As of March 31, 2019, the aggregate scheduled interest payments over the course of the loan and related swaps amounted to €22.2 million. The scheduled maturity and principal payment of the loan and related swaps of €150.0 million are due in April 2022. There were no new cross-currency swaps designated as cash flow hedges as of March 31, 2019. The fair value of derivative instruments on our Consolidated Balance Sheets as of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 was as follows:
| Derivative Assets |  | Derivative Liabilities
| Balance Sheet Location | March 31, 2019 | December 31, 2018 |  | Balance Sheet Location | March 31, 2019 | December 31, 2018
