Derivatives designated as hedging instruments Cash flow hedge Forward contracts The Company has entered into various forward contracts in a few territories in order to hedge a portion of the foreign exchange risk associated with forecasted imports of goods. The effect of the hedges result in fixing the cost of goods acquired (i.e. the net settlement or collection adjusts the cost of inventory paid to the suppliers). As of December 31, 2017, the Company has forward contracts outstanding with a notional amount of $24,397 that mature during 2018. The Company made net (payments) collections totaling $(1,236), $(1,307) and $2,306 during fiscal years 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively, as a result of the net settlements of these derivatives. Cross-currency interest rate swap The Company entered into three cross-currency interest rate swap agreements to hedge all the variability in a portion (73.00%) of the principal and interest collections of its BRL intercompany loan receivables with ADBV. The agreements were signed during November 2013 (amended in February 2017), June and July 2017. The following table presents information related to the terms of the agreements:

According to ASC 815-30-40, the amount deferred in accumulated other comprehensive income until the date of the last amendment, amounting to $677 as of December 31, 2017, will be amortized to earnings as the originally hedged cash flows affects the statement of income.

Call spread During April 2017, the Company’s Brazilian subsidiary entered into two call spread agreements in order to hedge the variability in a portion (50%) of the principal of intercompany loan payables nominated in US dollar. Call spread agreements consist of a combination of two call options: the Company bought an option to buy US dollar at a strike price equal to the BRL exchange rate at the date of the agreements, and wrote an option to buy US dollar at a higher strike price than the previous one.

Fair value hedge Cross-currency interest rate swap On March 29, 2016, the Company entered into five cross-currency interest rate swap agreements (the "2016 cross-currency interest rate swap") in order to fully hedge the principal and interest cash flows of the Secured Loan Agreement described in Note 12, into BRL. The agreements were signed with the Brazilian subsidiaries of the banks participating in the secured loan. All the terms of the 2016 cross-currency interest rate swap agreements matched the terms of the Secured Loan Agreement. Pursuant to these agreements, the Company received interest in US dollar at an interest rate equal to the one it had to pay to the off-shore lenders over a notional amount of $167.3 million and paid interest in BRL at CDI plus 4.50% per year, over a notional amount of BRL 613.9 million quarterly, beginning June 2016. During April 2017, the Company unwound these agreements as a consequence of the repayment of the Secured Loan Agreement mentioned in Note 12. The total payment amounted to $39.1 million (BRL 122.7 million), including $0.9 million of accrued and unpaid interest. During fiscal years 2017 and 2016, the accrued interest amounted to $6,921 and $18,177, respectively. These charges do not include the effect of the Secured Loan Agreement mentioned in Note 12, amounting to a loss of $2,570 and $6,519, respectively. Including these effects the total interest cost amounts to $9,491 and $24,696, respectively. These amounts were recorded within “Net interest expense” in the Company’s consolidated statement of income. Derivatives designated as hedging instruments (continued) Fair value hedge (continued) Cross-currency interest rate swap These amounts were recorded within “Net interest expense” in the Company’s consolidated statement of income. According to ASC 815-25-35, the change in the fair value of the hedging instrument and the change in the fair value of the hedged item shall be recognized in earnings. If those results are not perfectly offset, the difference shall be considered as hedge ineffectiveness. The following table presents the pretax amounts affecting income for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively:
|  | Cross-currency swaps (i) |
Derivatives in Fair Value Hedging Relationships |  | 2017 |  | 2016
Loss recognized in Income on hedging derivatives |  | (9,599) |  | (5,814) |
Gain recognized in Income on hedging items |  | 4,118 |  | 2,877 |
(i) | The loss of $5,481 and $2,937, in 2017 and 2016 respectively, related to the ineffective portion of derivatives, was recorded within “Loss from derivative instruments” in the Company’s consolidated statements of income (loss).
Derivatives not designated as hedging instruments During fiscal year 2017, the Company enters into certain derivatives that are not designated for hedge accounting, therefore the changes in the fair value of these derivatives are recognized immediately in earnings, within "Loss from derivatives instruments" in the Company´s consolidated statement of income. The Company paid $1,156 during the twelve months ended December 31, 2017 related to those forward contracts. Total equity return swap On August 13, 2012, the Company entered into a total equity return swap agreement with Goldman Sachs International (GSI) in order to minimize earning volatility related to a long-term incentive plan to reward employees implemented by ADBV in 2008, fully vested in March 2015. The agreement was renewed twice and as from the amendment signed on September 23, 2014, the Company was required to make a collateral deposit, which returned to the Company with the maturity of the agreement on September 12, 2015. During the third quarter of 2015, the Company paid $9,681 as settlement of the agreement. The Company did not designate this swap as a hedge under ASC 815. Therefore, the agreement was carried at fair market value in the consolidated balance sheets with changes reported in earnings, within "General and administrative expenses". The interest portion was recorded within “Net interest expense” in the Company’s consolidated statement of income. The following table presents amounts affecting income related to derivatives not designated as hedging instruments: Derivatives not designated as hedging instruments (continued) Total equity return swap (continued)
