DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES |
DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES | 3. DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES We are exposed to certain market risks relating to our ongoing business operations, including foreign currency risk, interest rate risk and credit risk. We manage our exposure to these and other market risks through regular operating and financing activities. Currently, the only risk that we manage through the use of derivative instruments is foreign currency risk, for which we enter into derivative instruments in the form of foreign currency forward exchange contracts with a major financial institution. We enter into these forward exchange contracts to reduce the potential effects of foreign exchange rate movements on our net equity investment in one of our foreign subsidiaries, to reduce the impact on gross profit and net earnings from sales and purchases denominated in foreign currencies, and to reduce the impact on our net earnings of foreign currency fluctuations on receivables and payables denominated in foreign currencies that are different than the subsidiaries’ functional currency. We are primarily exposed to foreign currency exchange rate risk with respect to transactions and net assets denominated in Euros, Pounds Sterling, Indian Rupee, Singapore Dollars, Chinese Yuan, Polish Zloty, and New Taiwan Dollars. We record all derivative instruments as assets or liabilities at fair value. Derivatives Designated as Hedging Instruments We enter into foreign currency forward exchange contracts periodically to hedge certain forecasted inter-company sales and purchases denominated in the following foreign currencies: the Pound Sterling, Euro and New Taiwan Dollar. The purpose of these instruments is to mitigate the risk that the U.S. Dollar net cash inflows and outflows resulting from sales and purchases denominated in foreign currencies will be adversely affected by changes in exchange rates. These forward contracts have been designated as cash flow hedge instruments and are recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value in Derivative assets and Derivative liabilities. The effective portion of the gains and losses resulting from the changes in the fair value of these hedge contracts is deferred in Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and recognized as an adjustment to Cost of sales and service in the period that the corresponding inventory sold that is the subject of the related hedge contract is recognized, thereby providing an offsetting economic impact against the corresponding change in the U.S. Dollar value of the inter-company sale or purchase being hedged. The ineffective portion of gains and losses resulting from the changes in the fair value of these hedge contracts is immediately reported in Other income (expense), net. We perform quarterly assessments of hedge effectiveness by verifying and documenting the critical terms of the hedge instrument and determining that forecasted transactions have not changed significantly. We also assess on a quarterly basis whether there have been adverse developments regarding the risk of a counterparty default. We had forward contracts outstanding as of July 31, 2022, denominated in Euros, Pounds Sterling and New Taiwan Dollars with set maturity dates ranging from August 2022 through July 2023. The contract amounts, expressed at forward rates in U.S. Dollars at July 31, 2022, were $27.6 million for Euros, $7.0 million for Pounds Sterling and $33.1 million for New Taiwan Dollars. At July 31, 2022, we had approximately $0.4 million of gains, net of tax, related to cash flow hedges deferred in Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). Included in this amount was $15,000 of unrealized loss, net of tax, related to cash flow hedge instruments that remain subject to currency fluctuation risk. The majority of these deferred gains will be recorded as an adjustment to Cost of sales and service in periods through July 2023, when the corresponding inventory that is the subject of the related hedge contracts is sold, as described above. We are also exposed to foreign currency exchange risk related to our investment in net assets in foreign countries. To manage this risk, we entered into a forward contract with a notional amount of €3.0 million in November 2021. We designated this forward contract as a hedge of our net investment in Euro denominated assets. We selected the forward method under FASB guidance related to the accounting for derivative instruments and hedging activities. The forward method requires all changes in the fair value of the contract to be reported as a cumulative translation adjustment in Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), net of tax, in the same manner as the underlying hedged net assets. This forward contract matures in November 2022. As of July 31, 2022, we had a realized gain of $0.9 million and an unrealized gain of $0.3 million, net of tax, recorded as cumulative translation adjustments in Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) related to this forward contract. Derivatives Not Designated as Hedging Instruments We also enter into foreign currency forward exchange contracts to protect against the effects of foreign currency fluctuations on inter-company receivables, payables and loans denominated in foreign currencies. These derivative instruments are not designated as hedges under FASB guidance and, as a result, changes in their fair value are reported currently in Other income (expense), net in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations consistent with the transaction gain or loss on the related receivables and payables denominated in foreign currencies. We had forward contracts outstanding as of July 31, 2022, denominated in Euros, Pounds Sterling, and New Taiwan Dollars with set maturity dates ranging from August 2022 through October 2022. The contract amounts, expressed at forward rates in U.S. Dollars at July 31, 2022, totaled $55.6 million. Fair Value of Derivative Instruments We recognize the fair value of derivative instruments as assets and liabilities on a gross basis on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of July 31, 2022 and October 31, 2021, all derivative instruments were recorded at fair value on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as follows (in thousands): ​
