Transactions that are denominated in a currency other than an entity's functional currency are subject to changes in exchange rates with the resulting gains and losses recorded within current earnings.

Amounts associated with these components for the respective periods are as follows:

On January 27, 2014, the Company entered into a series of financial instruments with a third-party financial institution used to minimize foreign exchange risk on the future consideration to be paid for the Providência Acquisition and the Mandatory Tender Offer. The primary financial instrument was related to the Providência Acquisition and consisted of a foreign exchange forward contract with an aggregate notional amount equal to the estimated purchase price. The remaining financial instruments currently outstanding relate to a series of foreign exchange call options that expire between 1 month and 4 years associated with the Mandatory Tender Offer and the deferred portion of the consideration paid for the Providência Acquisition. As the nature of these transactions are related to a non-operating notional amount, changes in fair value are included in other non-operating income (expense) in the respective period. The Company realized a gain of $22.4 million during the six months ended June 28, 2014 associated with the changes in fair value of these financial instruments. The amount associated with the remaining financial instruments recognized during the six months ended June 30, 2015 was a loss of $2.4 million.
