The Company’s investments in marketable securities consist of investment grade corporate bonds and commercial paper. The marketable securities are classified as available-for-sale and are carried at fair value with the change in unrealized gains and losses reported as a separate component on the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income until realized. The Company determines fair value using data points that are observable, such as quoted prices and interest rates. The amortized cost of the investments approximates fair value. Investment income is recorded within other income (expense), net on the condensed consolidated statements of earnings. As of May 31, 2025, all of the Company’s marketable securities investments mature within one year.

 

The Company enters into derivative instrument agreements to manage risk in connection with changes in foreign currency. The Company only enters into derivative instrument agreements with counterparties who have highly rated credit and does not enter into derivative instrument agreements for trading or speculative purposes. The fair values are based on inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability and are determined by standard calculations and models that use readily observable market parameters. These inputs include foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. Industry standard data providers are the primary source for forward and spot rate information for both interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates.

 

The Company has entered into various cross currency swaps that mature between the third quarter of fiscal 2026 and the first quarter of fiscal 2028 with a total notional amount of $175.0 million, or €163.2 million. The Company elected the spot method for designating these swaps as net investment hedges. Changes in the fair value of these contracts are reported in accumulated other comprehensive loss on the condensed consolidated balance sheets and the fair value of these contracts is recorded within other noncurrent assets and other noncurrent liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The fair value of these contracts as of May 31, 2025 is included in the table above as derivative assets. Translation gains and losses are recorded within other comprehensive income related to the Company's net investment hedges. Translation losses were $11.9 million and $0.4 million for the three months ended May 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and $7.3 million and $0.2 million for the nine months ended May 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

At May 31, 2025, the Company had an outstanding foreign currency forward contract to sell a notional amount of 147.4 million South African rand at fixed prices to settle during the next fiscal quarter. The Company’s foreign currency forward contracts do not qualify as hedges of a net investment in foreign operations.

 

 

There were no required fair value adjustments for assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis for the three or nine months ended May 31, 2025 or 2024.
