Derivative Instruments
Note 10. Derivative Instruments
The Company’s risk management strategy includes the use of derivative financial instruments to reduce the volatility of earnings and cash flows associated with changes in foreign currency exchange rates.
ASC 815, "Derivatives and Hedging" ("ASC 815"), requires the Company to recognize all of its derivative instruments as either assets or liabilities on the balance sheet at fair value. The accounting for changes in the fair value (i.e., gains or losses) of a derivative instrument depends on whether it has been designated and qualifies as part of a hedging relationship and further, on the type of hedging relationship. For those derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as hedging instruments, an entity must designate the hedging instrument, based upon the exposure being hedged, as a fair value hedge, cash flow hedge or a hedge of a net investment in a foreign operation.
Gains and losses on derivatives instruments that are designated and qualify as a cash flow hedge (i.e., hedging the exposure to variability in expected future cash flows that are attributable to a particular risk), are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and reclassified into statement of income in the same accounting period in which the designated forecasted transaction or hedged item affects earnings.
The Company entered into option and forward contracts to hedge a portion of anticipated New Israeli Shekel ("NIS") payroll and benefit payments. These derivative instruments are designated as cash flow hedges, as defined by ASC 815 and accordingly are measured at fair value. These transactions are effective and, as a result, gain or loss on the derivative instruments are reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income and reclassified as Cost of revenue and Operating expenses, at the time that the hedged income/expense is recorded.
