We operate internationally and enter into intercompany transactions denominated in foreign currencies. Consequently, we are subject to market risk arising from exchange rate movements between the dates foreign currency transactions occur and the dates they are settled. We regularly use foreign currency forward contracts to reduce our risks related to most of these transactions. These contracts usually have maturities of 90 days or less and generally require us to exchange foreign currencies for U.S. dollars at maturity, at rates stated in the contracts. These contracts are not designated as hedging instruments under U.S. GAAP. Accordingly, the changes in the fair value of the foreign currency forward contracts are recognized in each accounting period in “Other – net” on the Consolidated Statements of Income together with the transaction gain or loss from the related balance sheet position. For the three months ended July 31, 2020, we recognized net gains of $17,255 on foreign currency forward contracts and net losses of $20,809 from the change in fair value of balance sheet positions. For the three months ended July 31, 2019, we recognized net gains of $975 on foreign currency forward contracts and net gains of $407 from the change in fair value of balance sheet positions. For the nine months ended July 31, 2020, we recognized net gains of $13,096 on foreign currency forward contracts and losses of $13,658 from the change in fair value of balance sheet positions. For the nine months ended July 31, 2019, we recognized gains of $769 on foreign currency forward contracts and gains of $267 from the change in fair value of balance sheet positions.
