We enter into derivative transactions, specifically foreign currency forward contracts and options, to manage our exposure to foreign currency exchange risk in order to reduce earnings volatility. We do not enter into derivative transactions for trading or speculative purposes.

The following table shows our derivative instruments measured at gross fair value as reflected in the Consolidated Balance Sheets:

We hedge our net foreign currency monetary assets and liabilities primarily resulting from foreign currency denominated receivables and payables with foreign exchange forward contracts to reduce the risk that our earnings and cash flows will be adversely affected by changes in foreign currency exchange rates. These contracts have maturities of up to approximately three months. Generally, we do not designate these foreign currency forward contracts as hedges for accounting purposes and changes in the fair value of these instruments are recognized immediately in earnings. Because we enter into forward contracts only as an economic hedge, any gain or loss on the underlying foreign-denominated balance would be offset by the loss or gain on the forward contract. Gains and losses on forward contracts and foreign denominated receivables and payables are included in Other income (expense), net.

As of June 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021, we had outstanding forward contracts with notional amounts equivalent to the following:

The following table shows the effect of our non-designated hedges in the Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2022 and June 30, 2021:


(in thousands)		Three months ended					Nine months ended
	Location of Gain (Loss)	June 30, 2022		June 30, 2021			June 30, 2022		June 30, 2021
Net realized and unrealized (gain) loss, excluding the underlying foreign currency exposure being hedged	Other income (expense), net	$	3,399	$	(2,508	)	$	3,761	$	(7,128	)

In the three months ended June 30, 2022 and June 30, 2021, foreign currency gains, net were $0.9 million and foreign currency losses, net were $2.0 million, respectively. In the nine months ended June 30, 2022 and June 30, 2021 foreign currency losses, net were $3.1 million and $6.1 million, respectively.

We translate balance sheet accounts of subsidiaries with foreign functional currencies into the U.S. Dollar using the exchange rate at each balance sheet date. Resulting translation adjustments are reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. We designate certain foreign exchange forward contracts as net investment hedges against exposure on translation of balance sheet accounts of Euro-functional subsidiaries. Net investment hedges partially offset the impact of foreign currency translation adjustment recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. All foreign exchange forward contracts are carried at fair value on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and the maximum duration of net investment hedge foreign exchange forward contracts is approximately three months.

Net investment hedge relationships are designated at inception, and effectiveness is assessed retrospectively on a quarterly basis using the net equity position of Euro-functional subsidiaries. As the forward contracts are highly effective in offsetting exchange rate exposure, we record changes in these net investment hedges in accumulated other comprehensive loss and subsequently reclassify them to foreign currency translation adjustment in accumulated other comprehensive loss at the time of forward contract maturity. Changes in the fair value of foreign exchange forward contracts due to changes in time value are excluded from the assessment of effectiveness. Our derivatives are not subject to any credit contingent features. We manage credit risk with counterparties by trading among several counterparties and we review our counterparties’ credit at least quarterly.

The following table shows the effect of our derivative instruments designated as net investment hedges in the Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2022 and June 30, 2021:


(in thousands)		Three months ended						Nine months ended

Gain recognized, excluded portion	Other income (expense), net		515			267			1,124			1,000

As of June 30, 2022, we estimate that all amounts reported in accumulated other comprehensive loss will be applied against exposed balance sheet accounts upon translation within the next three months.

We have entered into master netting arrangements for our forward contracts that allow net settlements under certain conditions. Although netting is permitted, it is currently our policy and practice to record all derivative assets and liabilities on a gross basis in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
