DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING STRATEGIES DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING STRATEGIES
The Company uses forward foreign currency exchange contracts (forward contracts) to hedge certain operational exposures resulting from potential changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Such exposures result from portions of the Company’s forecasted revenues and operating expenses being denominated in currencies other than the U.S. Dollar (USD), primarily the Euro. Certain of these forward contracts are designated as hedging instruments and have maturities up to three years. The Company also enters into forward contracts that are considered to be economic hedges that are not designated as hedging instruments and have maturities up to three months. Whether designated or undesignated, these forward contracts protect against the reduction in value of forecasted foreign currency cash flows resulting from product revenues, royalty revenues, operating expenses and asset or liability positions designated in currencies other than the USD. To receive hedge accounting treatment, cash flow hedges must be highly effective in offsetting changes to expected future cash flows on hedged transactions. The Company does not hold or issue derivative instruments for trading or speculative purposes.
The Company is exposed to counterparty credit risk on its derivatives. The Company has established and maintains strict counterparty credit guidelines and enters into hedging agreements with financial institutions that are investment grade or better to minimize the Company’s exposure to potential defaults. The Company is not required to pledge collateral under these agreements.
