Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]  
Derivative Instruments Derivative Instruments
We are exposed to various market risks, including foreign currency exchange rate risk and interest rate risk. We use derivative instruments to manage these risk exposures. We enter into foreign currency contracts and cross-currency swaps to help manage our exposure to foreign currency exchange rate risk and we use interest rate swaps to mitigate interest rate risk. We assess the fair value of these instruments by considering current and anticipated movements in future interest rates and the relevant currency spot and future rates available in the market. Accordingly, these instruments are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
Cash flow hedges
We have interest rate swap arrangements with counterparties to reduce our exposure to variability in cash flows relating to interest payments on our outstanding term loan arrangements. We have designated these swaps as cash flow hedges of the risk associated with floating interest rates on designated future monthly interest payments. As of June 30, 2025, we have two outstanding interest rate swaps entered into in May 2023 with a combined notional value of $745.0, maturing in October 2026, and two swaps entered into in June 2025 with a combined notional value of $402.7, maturing in January 2031. The fair value of the interest rate swaps represents the estimated amount we would receive or pay to terminate such agreements, taking into account market interest rates and the remaining time to maturities or using market inputs with mid-market pricing as a practical expedient for the bid-ask spread.
Changes in fair value are recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive loss (“AOCL”) in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, with a corresponding adjustment to the derivative asset or liability. Amounts recorded in AOCL are reclassified to Interest expense, net in the same period during which the hedged transactions affect earnings. As of June 30, 2025, we estimate that approximately $7.3 of pre-tax gain related to interest rate swaps recorded in AOCL will be reclassified into earnings within the next 12 months. For additional information on changes recorded in AOCL, see Note 7 - Shareholders' Equity.
Fair value hedges
In June 2025, we entered into two cross-currency swaps with a combined notional value of €350.0, maturing in January 2031, to mitigate foreign currency exposure related to intercompany debt and economically reduce interest expense. We have designated these swaps as fair value hedges. We elected to assess the effectiveness of these hedges based on changes in spot rates.
Changes in fair value are recognized as foreign exchange gains or losses within Other operating expense (income), net, and are intended to offset the foreign exchange gains or losses arising from the remeasurement of the hedged intercompany debt. Unrealized gains or losses on components excluded from the hedge effectiveness assessment are recorded in AOCL and are reclassified into earnings over the life of the swaps. For additional information on changes recorded in AOCL, see Note 7 - Shareholders' Equity.
Net investment hedge
In July 2023, we entered into a €100.0 cross-currency swap maturing in November 2026 to mitigate foreign currency exposure related to our net investment in various euro-functional-currency consolidated subsidiaries. We have designated this swap as a net investment hedge. We elected to assess the effectiveness of this net investment hedge based on changes in spot rates and we amortize the portion of the hedge excluded from the effectiveness assessment to Interest expense, net over the life of the swap.
Changes in fair value related to the effective portion of the hedge are recorded in AOCL as part of the foreign currency translation adjustment, with a corresponding adjustment to the derivative asset or liability. Any accumulated gain or loss will be reclassified into earnings when the hedged net investment is either sold or substantially liquidated. For additional information on changes recorded in AOCL, see Note 7 - Shareholders' Equity.
Derivatives not designated as accounting hedges
We periodically enter into foreign currency forward contracts, generally with maturities of 180 days or less, to reduce our exposure to foreign exchange rate risks. These contracts are not designated as accounting hedges. As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the notional amount of our outstanding foreign currency forward contracts was $150.0 and $91.1, respectively.
We initially recognize these contracts at fair value on the execution date and subsequently remeasure them at the end of each reporting period. We determine the fair value of these instruments using market-based inputs, including current and anticipated movements in future interest rates and the relevant currency spot and forward rates. We receive third-party valuation reports to corroborate our determination of fair value.
The gain or loss related to the change in fair value for these contracts is recognized within Other operating expense (income), net. We recognized a (gain) loss from the fair value adjustment of $(1.0) and $0.6 for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and $(3.3) and $2.3 for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
