Fair Value Measurements

6 Months Ended

Jul. 02, 2016

For recognition purposes, on a recurring basis the Corporation is required to measure at fair value its marketable securities and derivative instruments. The marketable securities are comprised of government securities, corporate bonds and money market funds. When available the Corporation uses quoted market prices to determine fair value and classifies such measurements within Level 1. Where market prices are not available, the Corporation makes use of observable market-based inputs (prices or quotes from published exchanges and indexes) to calculate fair value using the market approach, in which case the measurements are classified within Level 2.

Assets measured at fair value as of July 2, 2016 were as follows:



(In thousands)	Fair value as of measurement date			Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets (Level 1)		Significant other observable inputs (Level 2)			Significant unobservable inputs (Level 3)
Government securities	$	8,846		$	—	$	8,846		$	—
Corporate bonds	$	3,696		$	—	$	3,696		$	—
Derivative financial instruments	$	(2,582	)	$	—	$	(2,582	)	$	—

Assets measured at fair value as of January 2, 2016 were as follows:



(In thousands)	Fair value as of measurement date			Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets (Level 1)		Significant other observable inputs (Level 2)			Significant unobservable inputs (Level 3)
Government securities	$	9,663		$	—	$	9,663		$	—
Corporate bonds	$	2,405		$	—	$	2,405		$	—
Derivative financial instruments	$	(1,252	)	$	—	$	(1,252	)	$	—

In addition to the methods and assumptions the Corporation uses to record the fair value of financial instruments as discussed above in this section, it uses the following methods and assumptions to estimate the fair value of its financial instruments.

Cash and cash equivalents - Level 1

The carrying amount approximated fair value and includes money market funds.

Long-term debt (including current portion) - Level 2

The carrying value of the Corporation's outstanding variable-rate debt obligations at July 2, 2016 and January 2, 2016, the end of the Corporation's 2015 fiscal year, was $276 million and $40 million, respectively, which approximated the fair value. The Corporation paid off its outstanding fixed-rate, long-term debt obligations on April 6, 2016 with revolving credit facility borrowings. The value of these senior notes was estimated based on a discounted cash flow method to be $148 million at January 2, 2016, compared to the carrying value of $150 million.

The Corporation, certain domestic subsidiaries of the Corporation, the lenders and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as administrative agent, entered into the First Amendment to Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the "Credit Agreement") on January 6, 2016. The Credit Agreement amends the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of June 9, 2015.

The Credit Agreement was amended to increase the revolving commitment of the lenders from $250 million to $400 million (while retaining the Corporation's option under the Credit Agreement to increase its borrowing capacity by an additional $150 million) in order to provide funding for the pay off of its maturing senior notes on April 6, 2016 and to extend the maturity date of the Credit Agreement from June 2020 to January 2021. The Corporation deferred the debt issuance costs related to the Credit Agreement, which were classified as assets, and is amortizing them over the term of the Credit Agreement.

As of July 2, 2016, there was $276 million outstanding under the $400 million revolving credit facility of which $193 million was classified as long-term since the Corporation does not expect to repay the borrowings within a year and the remaining $83 million was classified as current.
