Derivative Instruments and Hedging Instruments

The Company's major exposures relate to foreign exchange rate, interest rate and commodity price risks. Risk management activities related to these risks are as follows:

Foreign Exchange Rate Risk:

The Company’s exposure to foreign exchange rate risk includes exchange risk as a result of non-U.S. operations having functional currencies other than the U.S. dollar, which is managed by cross-currency interest rate swap agreements and long-term debt designated as net investment hedges. As of March 31, 2025, the Company had several cross-currency interest rate swap agreements that qualify for hedge accounting with a notional value of $129.8 million of U.S. Dollar to Swiss Franc and a notional value of $129.8 million of U.S. Dollar to Euro to hedge the variability in the movement of foreign currency exchange rates on portions of our Euro and Swiss Franc denominated net asset investments.

In addition, the Company has foreign currency exposure at a transaction level, and this is addressed by forward currency contracts for significant exposures, which have not been designated as accounting hedges.

Interest Rate Risk:

The Company’s exposure to interest rate risk relates primarily to outstanding variable rate debt under the U.S. dollar denominated 2019 Term Loan and adverse movements in the related market rates. This exposure is managed as part of a cross-currency interest rate swap which involves the Company paying-fixed receiving-floating. The objective of this designated cash flow hedge is to offset the variability of cash flows on term loan debt interest payments attributable to changes in SOFR, a contractually specified rate. The difference between the interest rate received and paid under the interest rate and cross-currency swap agreements is recorded in Interest and other income (expense), net in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income.

Commodity Price Risk:

The Company has arrangements with certain customers under which it has a firm commitment to deliver copper-based superconductors at a fixed price. In order to minimize the volatility that fluctuations in the price of copper have on the Company’s sales of these commodities, the Company enters into commodity hedge contracts. As commodity contracts settle, gains (losses) related to changes in fair values are included within revenues.
