Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedging Activities
Note 7: Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedging Activities
The Company is exposed to certain risks arising from both business operations and economic conditions, including interest rate risk and foreign exchange risk. To mitigate the impact of interest rate and foreign exchange risk, the Company enters into derivative financial instruments. The Company maintains the majority of its overall interest rate exposure on floating rate borrowings to a fixed-rate basis, primarily with interest rate swap agreements. The Company manages exposure to foreign exchange fluctuations primarily through short-term forward contracts.
There have been no significant changes to the interest rate and foreign exchange risk management objectives from those disclosed in the Company’s audited Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2017.
Interest Rate Derivative Instruments
As of September 30, 2018, the Company's active interest rate hedging instruments consist of four interest rate swap agreements designated as cash flow hedges, expiring in August 2025, further described below. The Company's hedge asset balances as September 30, 2018 relate solely to these interest rate swaps.
During the first nine months of 2018, the Company made the below changes to its historical hedging program, which included terminating and monetizing all of its previous designated interest rate cash flow hedging instruments.
In February 2018, the Company elected to terminate and monetize eight interest rate cap agreements and received a $34.5 million cash settlement in exchange for its net hedge asset. Amounts relating to these terminated derivatives recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive income in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets will be amortized into earnings over the remaining life of the original contracts, which were scheduled to expire between October 2019 and August 2021. Subsequently, the Company entered into eight interest rate cap agreements with identical terms, one expiring October 2019, three expiring May 2021, one expiring July 2021 and three expiring August 2021.
In August 2018, the Company extinguished the 2014 Credit Agreement and as a result the Company de-designated hedge accounting on its eight interest rate cap and five interest rate swap agreements. Subsequently, in September 2018, the Company elected to terminate its eight interest rate cap and five interest rate swap agreements, receiving a $9.6 million cash settlement in exchange for its net hedge asset. For the three months ended September 30, 2018, the Company recognized a $0.7 million gain directly in earnings as a result of the changes in the fair value of the interest rate caps and interest rate swaps from the date of de-designation to the date of termination. Amounts relating to these terminated derivatives recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive income in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets will be amortized into earnings over the remaining life of the original contracts, which were scheduled to expire between October 2019 and August 2021. As discussed above, subsequently, the Company entered into four interest rate swap agreements designated as cash flow hedges, expiring in August 2025.
The Company did not recognize any significant income or loss due to hedge ineffectiveness related to interest rate swap and cap agreements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017. The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives designated and qualifying as cash flow hedges is recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive loss in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets and is subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period that the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings. As of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, there were $55.0 million and $26.9 million in pre-tax gains, respectively, included in Accumulated other comprehensive loss related to these agreements, which will be reclassified to Interest expense as interest payments are made in accordance with the Credit Agreements; refer to Note 8: Long-term Debt and Other Borrowings for discussion of these agreements.
Foreign Exchange Derivative Instruments
In August and September 2018, the Company elected to terminate its cross-currency interest rate swap agreements and received a $13.9 million cash settlement in exchange for its net hedge asset. As a result of terminating the cross-currency interest rate swap agreements, a loss of $0.9 million was immediately recognized in earnings.
The Company did not recognize any significant income or loss due to hedge ineffectiveness related to cross-currency interest rate swap agreements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017. The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives designated and qualifying as cash flow or net investment hedges is recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive loss in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets and is subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period that the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings. As of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, there were $0.3 million and $3.4 million in pre-tax gains and losses, respectively, included in Accumulated other comprehensive loss in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets related to these agreements. Amounts remaining as of September 30, 2018 relate to net investments, which will remain in Accumulated other comprehensive loss in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets indefinitely until the Company disposes of the underlying investment.

As of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Company has not posted and does not hold any collateral related to these agreements.

Hedge accounting was not elected for any of these contracts. As such, changes in the fair values of these contracts are recorded directly in earnings. There were losses of $0.0 million and gains of $3.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. There were gains of $1.1 million and losses of $0.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

As of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the fair value of forward contracts disclosed above were included in Other current assets and Other current liabilities in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets.
