Derivative Instruments with Hedge Accounting Designation

Cash Flow Hedges: We utilize forward contracts that generally mature within two years designated as cash flow hedges to minimize our exposure to changes in currency exchange rates or commodity prices for certain capital expenditures and manufacturing costs.

The effects of cash flow hedging activities were as follows:
Three months endedNovember 27,

Gain (loss) from cash flow hedges in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss)$(120)$(133)
Gain (loss) excluded from effectiveness testing in cost of goods sold(25)(29)
Gain (loss) reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) to earnings, primarily to cost of goods sold(40)

As of November 27, 2025, we expect to reclassify $40 million of pre-tax losses related to cash flow hedges from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) into earnings in the next 12 months.

Fair Value Hedges: We utilize currency forward contracts that generally mature within one year designated as fair value hedges to minimize our exposure to changes in currency exchange rates for non-U.S.-dollar-denominated cash and investments in debt securities. The fair value of our hedged cash and investments in debt securities was $1.66 billion as of November 27, 2025. The changes in the fair values of derivatives designated as fair value hedges and the offsetting changes in the underlying fair values of the hedged items are both recognized in earnings.
We recognized gains of $68 million and $96 million for the first quarters of 2026 and 2025, respectively, for changes in the fair values of our fair value currency hedges and offsetting losses of $66 million and $97 million for the first quarters of 2026 and 2025, respectively, for changes in the underlying fair values of the hedged items in other non-operating income (expense).

Derivative Instruments without Hedge Accounting Designation

Currency Derivatives: We generally utilize a rolling hedge strategy with currency forward contracts that mature within three months to hedge our exposures of monetary assets and liabilities from changes in currency exchange rates. At the end of each reporting period, monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar are remeasured into U.S. dollars and the associated outstanding forward contracts are marked to market. Realized and unrealized gains and losses on derivative instruments without hedge accounting designation as well as the changes in the underlying monetary assets and liabilities from changes in currency exchange rates are included in other non-operating income (expense), net.

We recognized losses of $76 million and $56 million for derivative instruments without hedge accounting designation for the first quarters of 2026 and 2025, respectively. We do not use derivative instruments for speculative purposes.
