Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

8.    Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

During the three months ended December 31, 2021, we did not purchase or hold any derivative instruments for trading or speculative purposes. See Note 3, Fair Value Measurements, for the classification and fair value of our derivative instruments.

Designated Cash Flow Hedges

Foreign Currency Forwards

We regularly enter into foreign currency forwards to mitigate our exposure to exchange rate changes on inventory purchases in U.S. dollars by our foreign subsidiaries. At December 31, 2021, the notional amount we held through these forwards, based upon exchange rates at December 31, 2021, was as follows (in thousands):

We record quarterly, net of income tax, the changes in fair value related to the foreign currency forwards into AOCL. As the forwards are exercised, the realized value is recognized into cost of goods sold based on inventory turns. For the three months ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, we recognized a loss of $0.3 million and a gain of $0.4 million, respectively, into cost of goods sold on our condensed consolidated statements of earnings. Based on December 31, 2021 valuations and exchange rates, we expect to reclassify losses of approximately $0.6 million into cost of goods sold over the next 12 months.

Interest Rate Caps

In July 2017, we purchased two interest rate caps with an initial aggregate notional amount of $550 million (the “interest rate caps”) to mitigate the exposure to higher interest rates in connection with our term loan B. The interest rate caps are comprised of individual caplets that expire ratably through June 30, 2023, and are designated as cash flow hedges. Accordingly, changes in fair value of the interest rate caps are recorded quarterly, net of income tax, and are included in AOCL. Over the next 12 months, we expect to reclassify approximately $1.8 million into interest expense, which represents the original value of the expiring caplets.

For the three months ended December 31, 2021, we recognized expense of approximately $0.4 million into interest expense on our condensed consolidated statements of earnings. The effects of our interest rate caps on our condensed consolidated statements of earnings were not material for the three months ended December 31, 2020.
