Risk Management & Fair Value Measurement

NOTE 5

RISK MANAGEMENT ACTIVITIES AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

As a multinational company with diverse product offerings, we are exposed to market risks, such as changes in interest rates, currency exchange rates and commodity prices. We evaluate exposures on a centralized basis to take advantage of natural exposure correlation and netting. To the extent we choose to manage volatility associated with the net exposures, we enter into various financial transactions that we account for using the applicable accounting guidance for derivative instruments and hedging activities. These financial transactions are governed by our policies covering acceptable counterparty exposure, instrument types and other hedging practices.

At inception, we formally designate and document qualifying instruments as hedges of underlying exposures. We formally assess, at inception and at least quarterly thereafter, whether the financial instruments used in hedging transactions are effective at offsetting changes in either the fair value or cash flows of the related underlying exposures. Fluctuations in the value of these instruments generally are offset by changes in the fair value or cash flows of the underlying exposures being hedged. This is driven by the high degree of effectiveness between the exposure being hedged and the hedging instrument. The ineffective portion of a change in the fair value of a qualifying instrument is immediately recognized in earnings. The amount of ineffectiveness recognized was immaterial for all years presented.

Credit Risk Management

We have counterparty credit guidelines and normally enter into transactions with investment grade financial institutions. Counterparty exposures are monitored daily and downgrades in counterparty credit ratings are reviewed on a timely basis. We have not incurred, and do not expect to incur, material credit losses on our risk management or other financial instruments.

Substantially all of the Company's financial instruments used in hedging transactions are governed by industry standard netting and collateral agreements with counterparties. If the Company's credit rating were to fall below the levels stipulated in the agreements, the counterparties could demand either collateralization or termination of the arrangements. The aggregate fair value of the instruments covered by these contractual features that are in a net liability position as of June 30, 2014, was not material. The Company has not been required to post collateral as a result of these contractual features.

Interest Rate Risk Management

Our policy is to manage interest cost using a mixture of fixed-rate and variable-rate debt. To manage this risk in a cost-efficient manner, we enter into interest rate swaps whereby we agree to exchange with the counterparty, at specified intervals, the difference between fixed and variable interest amounts calculated by reference to a notional amount.

Interest rate swaps that meet specific accounting criteria are accounted for as fair value or cash flow hedges. For fair value hedges, the changes in the fair value of both the hedging instruments and the underlying debt obligations are immediately recognized in interest expense. For cash flow hedges, the effective portion of the changes in fair value of the hedging instrument is reported in OCI and reclassified into interest expense over the life of the underlying debt obligation. The ineffective portion for both cash flow and fair value hedges, which was not material for any year presented, was immediately recognized in interest expense.

Foreign Currency Risk Management

We manufacture and sell our products and finance operations in a number of countries throughout the world. As a result, we are exposed to movements in foreign currency exchange rates.

To manage the exchange rate risk primarily associated with our financing operations, we have historically used a combination of forward contracts, options and currency swaps. As of June 30, 2014, we had currency swaps with maturities up to five years, which are intended to offset the effect of exchange rate fluctuations on intercompany loans denominated in foreign currencies. These swaps are accounted for as cash flow hedges. The effective portion of the changes in fair value of these instruments is reported in OCI and reclassified into SG&A and interest expense in the same period or periods during which the related hedged transactions affect earnings. The ineffective portion, which was not material for any year presented, was immediately recognized in SG&A.

The change in fair values of certain non-qualifying instruments used to manage foreign exchange exposure of intercompany financing transactions and certain balance sheet items subject to revaluation are immediately recognized in earnings, substantially offsetting the foreign currency mark-to-market impact of the related exposures.

Net Investment Hedging

We hedge certain net investment positions in foreign subsidiaries. To accomplish this, we either borrow directly in foreign currencies and designate all or a portion of the foreign currency debt as a hedge of the applicable net investment position or we enter into foreign currency swaps that are designated as hedges of net investments. Changes in the fair value of these instruments are recognized in OCI to offset the change in the value of the net investment being hedged. The ineffective portion of these hedges, which was not material in any year presented, was immediately recognized in interest expense.

Commodity Risk Management

Certain raw materials used in our products or production processes are subject to price volatility caused by weather, supply conditions, political and economic variables and other unpredictable factors. To manage the volatility related to anticipated purchases of certain of these materials, we have historically, on a limited basis, used futures and options with maturities generally less than one year and swap contracts with maturities up to five years. As of and during the years ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, we did not have any commodity hedging activity.

Insurance

We self-insure for most insurable risks. However, we purchase insurance for Directors and Officers Liability and certain other coverage where it is required by law, by contract or deemed to be in the best interest of the Company.

Fair Value Hierarchy

Accounting guidance on fair value measurements for certain financial assets and liabilities requires that financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value be classified and disclosed in one of the following categories:

Level 1: Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2: Observable market-based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data.

Level 3: Unobservable inputs reflecting the reporting entity's own assumptions or external inputs from inactive markets.

When applying fair value principles in the valuation of assets and liabilities, we are required to maximize the use of quoted market prices and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The Company has not changed its valuation techniques used in measuring the fair value of any financial assets or liabilities during the year. Our fair value estimates take into consideration the credit risk of both the Company and our counterparties.

When active market quotes are not available for financial assets and liabilities, we use industry standard valuation models. Where applicable, these models project future cash flows and discount the future amounts to a present value using market-based observable inputs including credit risk, interest rate curves, foreign currency rates and forward and spot prices for currencies. In circumstances where market-based observable inputs are not available, management judgment is used to develop assumptions to estimate fair value. Generally, the fair value of our Level 3 instruments is estimated as the net present value of expected future cash flows based on external inputs.

The following table sets forth the Company's financial assets and liabilities as of June 30, 2014 and 2013 that were measured at fair value on a recurring basis during the period, segregated by level within the fair value hierarchy:

⁽²⁾

All derivative assets are presented in Prepaid expenses and other current assets and Other noncurrent assets. Investment securities are presented in Available-for-sale investment securities and Other noncurrent assets, except the U.S. government securities are included in Other noncurrent assets in our Consolidated Balance Sheets at June 30, 2013. The amortized cost of the U.S. government securities was $1,649 and $1,604 as of June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. All U.S. government securities have contractual maturities between one and five years. The amortized cost of the corporate bond securities was $497 as of June 30, 2014. The amortized cost and fair value of corporate bond securities with maturities of less than a year was $39 as of June 30, 2014. The amortized cost and fair value of corporate bond securities with maturities between one and five years was $458 as of June 30, 2014. Fair values are generally estimated based upon quoted market prices for similar instruments.


⁽³⁾	All liabilities are presented in accrued and other liabilities or other noncurrent liabilities.


⁽⁴⁾	Long-term debt includes the current portion ($4,400 and $4,540 as of June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively) of debt instruments. Long-term debt is not recorded at fair value on a recurring basis, but is measured at fair value for disclosure purposes. Fair values are generally estimated based on quoted market prices for identical or similar instruments.

The Company recognizes transfers between levels within the fair value hierarchy, if any, at the end of each quarter. During fiscal 2013, the Company transferred long-term debt with a fair value of $455 from Level 1 to Level 2. The transferred instruments represent the Company's outstanding industrial development bonds which are infrequently traded in an observable market. There were no additional transfers between levels during the periods presented. In addition, there was no significant activity within the Level 3 assets and liabilities during the periods presented.

During fiscal 2013, we recorded impairments of certain goodwill and intangible assets. Also, during fiscal 2013, we applied purchase accounting and re-measured assets and liabilities at fair value related to the purchase of the balance of a joint venture in Iberia (see Note 2 for additional details on these items). Except for these items, there were no significant assets or liabilities that were re-measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis during fiscal 2013 or 2014.

Disclosures about Derivative Instruments

The notional amounts and fair values of qualifying and non-qualifying financial instruments used in hedging transactions as of June 30, 2014 and 2013 are as follows:



	Notional Amount				Fair Value Asset/(Liability)
June 30	2014		2013		2014			2013
DERIVATIVES IN CASH FLOW HEDGING RELATIONSHIPS
Foreign currency contracts	$	951	$	951	$	187		$	168

DERIVATIVES IN FAIR VALUE HEDGING RELATIONSHIPS
Interest rate contracts	$	9,738	$	9,117	$	168		$	132

DERIVATIVES IN NET INVESTMENT HEDGING RELATIONSHIPS
Net investment hedges	$	831	$	1,303	$	48		$	233

DERIVATIVES NOT DESIGNATED AS HEDGING INSTRUMENTS
Foreign currency contracts	$	12,111	$	7,080	$	(42	)	$	(71	)

The total notional amount of contracts outstanding at the end of the period is indicative of the level of the Company's derivative activity during the period. The notional balance of foreign currency contracts changes during the period reflects changes in the level of intercompany financing activity.



	Amount of Gain/(Loss) Recognized in AOCI on Derivatives (Effective Portion)
June 30	2014		2013
DERIVATIVES IN CASH FLOW HEDGING RELATIONSHIPS
Interest rate contracts	$	3	$	7
Foreign currency contracts	14		14
TOTAL	17		21

DERIVATIVES IN NET INVESTMENT HEDGING RELATIONSHIPS
Net investment hedges	$	30	$	145

During the next 12 months, the amount of the June 30, 2014, accumulated OCI balance that will be reclassified to earnings is expected to be immaterial.

The amounts of gains and losses included in earnings from qualifying and non-qualifying financial instruments used in hedging transactions for the years ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 were as follows:



	Amount of Gain/(Loss) Reclassified from AOCI into Earnings
Years ended June 30	2014		2013
DERIVATIVES IN CASH FLOW HEDGING RELATIONSHIPS
Interest rate contracts	$	6	$	6
Foreign currency contracts	38		215
TOTAL	44		221



	Amount of Gain/(Loss) Recognized in Earnings
Years ended June 30	2014			2013
DERIVATIVES IN FAIR VALUE HEDGING RELATIONSHIPS
