Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]  
Derivatives Derivatives
Hedge Accounting and Hedging Programs
We recognize all derivative instruments as either assets or liabilities in our consolidated balance sheets and measure them at fair value. Gains and losses resulting from changes in fair value are accounted for depending on the use of the derivative and whether it is designated and qualifies for hedge accounting.
We evaluate hedge effectiveness on our hedges that are designated and qualify for hedge accounting at the inception of the hedge prospectively, as well as retrospectively, and record any ineffective portion of the hedging instruments along with the time value of purchased contracts in the same line item of the income statement as the item being hedged on our consolidated statements of income.
Our hedging policy establishes maximum limits for each counterparty to minimize concentration of risk.
Balance Sheet Hedges
We hedge our net recognized foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities with foreign currency forward contracts to reduce the risk that the value of these assets and liabilities will be adversely affected by changes in exchange rates. These contracts hedge assets and liabilities that are denominated in foreign currencies and are carried at fair value as either assets or liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets with changes in the fair value recorded to net foreign currency transaction gain (loss) in our consolidated statements of income. These contracts do not subject us to material balance sheet risk due to exchange rate movements because gains and losses on these derivatives are intended to offset gains and losses on the assets and liabilities being hedged. At June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the notional amounts of foreign currency forward contracts outstanding not designated as hedging instruments were $89.2 million and $70.2 million, respectively.
Cash Flow Hedges
We manage our floating rate debt exposure using interest rate swaps. Fixed rate swaps are used to reduce our risk of the possibility of increased interest costs. We entered into an aggregate $120.0 million notional amount
of interest rate swaps effective December 1, 2022, that exchange a variable rate of interest for a fixed rate of interest of 4.076%. These interest rate swaps are designated as cash flow hedges. These swaps are scheduled to mature on December 1, 2026.
Fair Value Hedges
On April 5, 2022, we entered into Euro to U.S. dollar foreign exchange cross-currency swaps associated with an intercompany loan from a wholly owned European subsidiary. We enter into these foreign exchange cross-currency swaps to hedge the foreign currency risk associated with this intercompany loan, and accordingly, they are not speculative in nature. These cross-currency swaps are designated as fair value hedges. As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, these cross-currency swaps included €75.0 million of total notional value. As of June 30, 2025, the aggregated scheduled interest payments over the course of the loan and related swaps amounted to €4.1 million. The scheduled maturity and principal payment of the loan of €75.0 million is due in April 2027.
Net Investment Hedges
On April 5, 2022, we entered into Euro to U.S. dollar foreign exchange cross-currency swaps to hedge our exposure to adverse foreign currency exchange rate movements between Tennant Company and a wholly owned European subsidiary. We enter into these fixed-to-fixed cross-currency swap agreements to protect a designated monetary amount of the Company’s net investment in its Euro functional currency subsidiary against the risk of changes in the Euro to U.S. dollar foreign exchange rate. These cross-currency swaps are designated as net investment hedges. As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the cross-currency swaps included €75.0 million of total notional value. These swaps are scheduled to mature in April 2027.
