Forward contracts to purchase own shares
The Company's employee share plans require the delivery of shares to employees in the future when rights vest or vested options are exercised. The Company acquires shares on the open market to deliver shares to employees to satisfy vesting or exercising commitments which exposes the Company to market price risk.
To protect the Company from share price volatility, the Company has entered into forward contracts for the purchase of its ordinary shares. As of June 30, 2026, the Company had forward contracts outstanding which mature in May 2027 and June 2027 to purchase a total of 0.5 million shares at a weighted-average price of $38.87. As of June 30, 2025, the Company had forward contracts outstanding that were entered into in September 2022 to purchase 0.4 million shares at a weighted-average price of $60.80. During the first quarter of fiscal year 2026, the Company settled the forward contracts which were outstanding as of June 30, 2025.
The forward contracts to purchase the Company's own shares have been included in other current liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets. Equity is reduced by an amount equal to the fair value of the shares at inception. The carrying value of the forward contracts at each reporting period was determined based on the present value of the cost required to settle the contracts.
