7.  DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

 

At June 30, 2014, the Company’s consolidated balance sheet reflects unrealized losses, net of tax, of $13.9 million in accumulated other comprehensive loss. The Company expects that all of the unrealized losses at June 30, 2014 will be reclassified into operating income over the next 12 months as a result of hedged transactions that are forecasted to occur. The amount ultimately realized in operating income, however, will differ as commodity prices change.
