Cash Flow Hedges - Interest Rate Swaps

The Company has traditionally entered into interest rate swap agreements to reduce its exposure to the variable rate portion of its long-term debt. As of December 31, 2020, the Company had one interest rate swap agreement, designated as cash flow hedge, with a notional value of $150. In February, 2021, the Company terminated the swap agreement. The Company had no interest rate swaps outstanding during the nine-month period ended September 29, 2022.

Changes in the fair value of cash flow hedges are recorded in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income ("AOCI") and recorded in earnings in the period in which the hedged transaction occurs. No gain or loss was recognized in AOCI for the three or nine months ended September 30, 2021. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 a loss of $0.0 and $0.4, respectively, was reclassified from AOCI to earnings, and included in the interest expense line item on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, and in operating activities on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 a loss of $0.0 and $0.7, respectively, was reclassified from AOCI to earnings resulting from the termination of a swap agreement, and included in the other income line item on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, and in operating activities on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.
Cash Flow Hedges – Foreign Currency Forward Contract

The Company has entered into currency forward contracts, each designated as a cash flow hedge upon the date of execution, for the purpose of reducing the variability of cash flows and hedging against the foreign currency exposure for forecasted payroll, pension and vendor disbursements that are expected to be made in the British Pound Sterling. The hedging program implemented is intended to reduce foreign currency exposure, and the associated forward currency contracts hedge forecasted transactions through September 2023.

The following table summarizes the notional amounts (representing the gross contract/notional amount of the derivatives outstanding) and fair values of the derivative instruments in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of September 29, 2022, and December 31, 2021. The foreign currency exchange contracts are measured within Level 1 of the Fair Value hierarchy. See Note 13 Fair Value Measurements.

Within the next 12 months, the Company expects to recognize a loss of $25.4 in earnings related to the foreign currency forward contracts. As of September 29, 2022, the maximum term of the hedged forecasted transaction was 12 months. Generally, the Company has agreements with its counterparties that contain a provision whereby if the Company defaults on its existing credit facilities and payment of the loans extended under such facilities is accelerated, the Company could be declared in default under its agreements, which may result in the early termination of the outstanding derivatives governed by such agreements and the payment of an early termination amount.

Derivatives Not Accounted for as Hedges

During the nine months ended September 29, 2022, the Company entered into foreign currency forward contracts in the amount of $291.5 to minimize the risk of currency exchange rate movements on the Company's planned settlement of the
repayable investment agreement between the Company and the U.K.'s Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy. During the nine-month period ended September 29, 2022, these foreign currency forward contracts were settled and new contracts were entered into in the amount of $293.7, which were also settled during the period. The Company did not designate these forward contracts as hedges or apply hedge accounting to the forward contracts. For the nine months ended September 29, 2022, the Company recorded a net gain of $1.6 to other income on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations related to the foreign currency forward contracts.
