Our derivative financial instruments are subject to master netting arrangements that allow for the offset of assets and liabilities in the event of default or early termination of the contract. We elect to record the gross assets and liabilities of our derivative financial instruments on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. If the derivative financial instruments had been netted on the condensed consolidated balance sheets, the asset and liability positions each would have been reduced by $65 million at March 28, 2026 and $45 million at December 27, 2025. We had collected collateral related to commodity derivative margin requirements of $38 million at March 28, 2026, which was included in other current liabilities on our condensed consolidated balance sheet, and posted collateral related to commodity derivative margin requirements of $52 million at December 27, 2025, which was included in prepaid expenses on our condensed consolidated balance sheet.
Level 1 derivative financial assets and liabilities consist of commodity future and options contracts and are valued using quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.
Level 2 derivative financial assets and liabilities consist of commodity swaps, foreign exchange forwards, options, and cross-currency contracts. Commodity swaps are valued using an income approach based on the observable market commodity index prices less the contract rate multiplied by the notional amount. Foreign exchange forwards and swaps are valued using an income approach based on observable market forward rates less the contract rate multiplied by the notional amount. Foreign exchange options are valued using an income approach based on a Black-Scholes-Merton formula. This formula uses present value techniques and reflects the time value and intrinsic value based on observable market rates. Cross-currency contracts are valued based on observable market spot and swap rates.
We did not have any Level 3 derivative financial assets or liabilities in any period presented.
Our calculation of the fair value of derivative financial instruments takes into consideration the risk of nonperformance, including counterparty credit risk.
Net Investment Hedging:
At March 28, 2026, we had the following items designated as net investment hedges:
Non-derivative foreign-currency denominated debt with principal amounts of €2.4 billion;
Cross-currency contracts with notional amounts of €954 million ($1.0 billion), C$1.3 billion ($900 million), and JPY9.6 billion ($68 million); and
Foreign exchange contracts with notional amounts of CNY4.0 billion ($579 million).
The components of the gains and losses on our net investment in these designated foreign operations, driven by changes in foreign exchange rates, are economically offset by fair value movements on the effective portion of our cross-currency contracts and foreign exchange contracts.
Cash Flow Hedge Coverage:
At March 28, 2026, we had entered into foreign exchange contracts designated as cash flow hedges for periods not exceeding the next 2 years.
Fair Value Hedge Coverage:
At March 28, 2026, we had fair value hedges of the foreign currency exposure of both intercompany and external foreign currency denominated loans:
Foreign exchange contracts with notional amounts of £400 million ($530 million) and the carrying value of the hedged item of $530 million is included in the long-term debt on the condensed consolidated balance sheets; and
Cross-currency contracts with notional amounts of £683 million ($864 million) and MXN4.8 billion ($251 million) and the carrying value of intercompany hedged items of $1.2 billion.
The gains/(losses) on the hedged item, driven by changes in foreign exchange rates, are economically offset by fair value movements on the effective portion of our cross-currency and foreign exchange contracts, which are reported in the same income statement line item in the same period. The amounts excluded from the assessment of effectiveness are recognized in earnings over the life of the hedge on a systematic and rational basis in the same line item as the hedged items.
Deferred Hedging Gains and Losses on Fair Value and Cash Flow Hedges:
Based on our valuation at March 28, 2026 and assuming market rates remain constant through contract maturities, we expect transfers to net income/(loss) of the existing losses reported in accumulated other comprehensive income/(losses) on interest rate cash flow hedges, cross-currency fair value hedges, and foreign exchange fair value hedges during the next 12 months to be insignificant. Additionally, we expect transfers to net income/(loss) of the existing gains reported in accumulated other comprehensive income/(losses) during the next 12 months on foreign exchange cash flow hedges and cross-currency cash flow hedges to be insignificant.

Non-Derivative Impact on Statements of Comprehensive Income:
Related to our non-derivative foreign currency denominated debt instruments designated as net investment hedges, we recognized pre-tax losses of $64 million for the three months ended March 28, 2026 and pre-tax losses of $49 million for the three months ended March 29, 2025. These amounts were recognized in other comprehensive income/(loss).
Available-for-sale securities:
We invest in certain marketable fixed-income debt securities that are classified as available-for-sale.
We classify our investments in commercial paper, corporate bonds, and U.S. treasury and agency securities as Level 2 as these investments are valued through consultation and evaluation with brokers in the institutional market using quoted prices and other observable market data. We classify our investments in money market funds as Level 1 as the fair values of these investments are based on quoted (unadjusted) prices in active markets for identical assets.
