Derivative Instruments Derivative Instruments
The Company uses derivative instruments to partially offset its business exposure to foreign currency risk on net investments in certain foreign subsidiaries. The Company enters into foreign currency forward contracts to offset a portion of the changes in the carrying amounts of its net investments in foreign operations due to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. As of June 30, 2020, the Company was a party to four forward contracts with an aggregate notional amount of €40.0 million to hedge foreign currency exposure on net investments in certain of its European subsidiaries whose functional currency is the Euro. These forward contracts are designated as hedging instruments and recognized at fair value as assets or liabilities in the accompanying unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets. Each contract has a notional amount of €10.0 million and matures annually starting on June 14, 2021 through June 17, 2024. During the three months ended June 30, 2020, GCP settled one contract with a notional amount of €10.0 million upon its maturity on June 15, 2020 and entered into a new contract with a notional amount of €10.0 million maturing on June 17, 2024. The forward contracts are designated and qualify as net investment hedges for which effectiveness is assessed based on the spot rate method. Please refer to Note 4, "Derivative Instruments", to the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements included in the 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K for further information on net investment hedges.
