The financial information included in this report has been prepared by the Company, without audit. In the opinion of management, the financial information included in this report contains all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature unless otherwise disclosed. Nevertheless, the results shown for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full year. The January 1,December 31, 2023, consolidated condensed balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”).
The nine-month periods ended October 1, 2023 and October 2, 2022, both include 39 weeks. The three-month periods ended October 1,March 31, 2024 and April 2, 2023 and October 2, 2022, both include 13 weeks.
Risks and Uncertainties
Global economic challenges, including the impacts of the Russia-Ukraine and Israel-Hamas wars, inflation, and supply chain disruptions, and the slow macro environment in China could cause economic uncertainty and volatility. The Company considered these impacts and subsequent general uncertainties and volatility in the global economy on the assumptions and estimates used herein. In connection with the Cyber Event discussed below, security breaches may expose us to fines and other liabilities to the extent sensitive data stored in our IT systems, including data related to customers, suppliers or employees, are misappropriated. The Company considered these impacts and subsequent general uncertainties and volatility in the global economy on the assumptions and estimates used herein. These uncertainties could result in a future material adverse effect to the amounts reported within the Company’s consolidated condensed financial statements if actual results differ from these estimates.
Cybersecurity Event
On November 20, 2022, we discovered a cybersecurity attack, perpetrated by unauthorized third parties, affecting our IT systems (the “Cyber Event”). In response to this Cyber Event, we notified law enforcement and took steps to supplement existing security monitoring, including scanning and protective measures. The investigation of the Cyber Event by our forensic experts was substantially completed early in the third quarter ofduring fiscal year 2023.

NOTE 4 – EARNINGS PER SHARE
The Company computes basic earnings (loss) per share (“EPS”) by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average common shares outstanding, including participating securities outstanding, during the period as discussed below. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution beyond shares for basic EPS that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised, converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that would have shared in the Company’s earnings.earnings (loss).
The Company includes all unvested stock awards that contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents, whether paid or unpaid, in the number of shares outstanding for basic EPS as these awards are considered participating securities. Any unvested stock awards considered non-participating securities are included in diluted EPS calculations when the inclusion of these shares would be dilutive. Unvested share-based awards of restricted stock are paid dividends equally with all other shares of common stock. As a result, the Company includes all outstanding restricted stock awards in the calculation of basic and diluted EPS. Distributed earnings include common stock dividends and dividends earned on unvested share-based payment awards. Undistributed earnings represent earnings that were available for distribution but were not distributed. The following table shows the computation of basic and diluted EPS:

(1) Represents the weighted average rate of interest for borrowings under the Syndicated Credit Facility and the stated rate of interest for the 5.50% Senior Notes due 2028, without the effect of debt issuance costs.
(2) The Syndicated Credit Facility also includes a multicurrency revolving loan facility up to $300.0 million. There were no revolving loan borrowings outstanding as of March 31, 2024 or December 31, 2023.
Syndicated Credit Facility
The Company’s Syndicated Credit Facility (the “Facility”) provides to the Company U.S. denominated and multicurrency term loans and provides to the Company and certain of its subsidiaries a multicurrency revolving credit facility. Interest on base rate loans is charged at varying rates computed by applying a margin depending on the Company’s consolidated net leverage ratio as of the most recently completed fiscal quarter. Interest on SOFR-based and alternative currency loans and fees for letters of credit areis charged at varying rates computed by applying a margin over the applicable SOFR rate or alternative currency rate, depending on the Company’s consolidated net leverage ratio as of the most recently completed fiscal quarter. In addition, the Company pays a commitment fee per annum (depending on the Company’s consolidated net leverage ratio as of the most recently completed fiscal quarter) on the unused portion of the Facility.
Fees for commercial letters of credit are computed as a percentage of the amount available to be drawn under such letters of credit. Fees for standby letters of credit are charged at varying rates computed by applying a margin of the amount available to be drawn under such standby letters of credit, depending on the Company’s consolidated net leverage ratio as of the most recently completed fiscal quarter. As of both October 1, 2023March 31, 2024 and January 1,December 31, 2023, the Company had $1.6 million in letters of credit outstanding under the Facility.
As of both October 1, 2023March 31, 2024 and January 1,December 31, 2023, the carrying value of the Company’s borrowings under the Facility approximated its fair value as the Facility bears interest rates that are similar to existing market rates. The fair value of borrowings under the Facility is estimated using observable market rates and is considered Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy.
Under the Facility, the Company is required to make quarterly amortization payments of the term loan borrowings, which are due on the last day of the calendar quarter.
The Company is in compliance with all covenants under the Facility and anticipates that it will remain in compliance with the covenants for the foreseeable future.

Senior Notes due 2028
The 5.50% Senior Notes due 2028 (the “Senior Notes”) bear an interest rate at 5.50% per annum and mature on December 1, 2028. Interest is paid semi-annually on June 1 and December 1 of each year. The Senior Notes are unsecured and are guaranteed, jointly and severally, by each of the Company’s material domestic subsidiaries, all of which also guarantee the obligations of the Company under its Facility.

Table of Contents
As of October 1, 2023,March 31, 2024, the estimated fair value of the Senior Notes was $258.8$287.0 million, compared with a net carrying value recorded in the Company’s consolidated condensed balance sheet of $296.3$296.7 million ($300.0 million gross, excluding $3.7the impact of $3.3 million of unamortized debt issuance costs). The fair value of the Senior Notes is derived using quoted prices for similar instruments and is considered Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy.
The Company is in compliance with all covenants under the indenture governing the Senior Notes and anticipates that it will remain in compliance with the covenants for the foreseeable future.
Debt Issuance Costs
Debt issuance costs associated with the Company’s Senior Notes and term loans under the Facility are reflected as a reduction of long-term debt in accordance with applicable accounting standards. As these fees are expensed over the life of the outstanding borrowing, the debt balance will increase by the same amount as the fees that are expensed. As of October 1, 2023March 31, 2024 and January 1,December 31, 2023, the unamortized debt issuance costs recorded as a reduction of long-term debt were $4.9$4.2 million and $6.1$4.4 million, respectively.
Debt issuance costs related to the issuance of revolving debt, which include underwriting, legal and other direct costs, net of accumulated amortization, were $1.5$1.3 million and $1.8$1.4 million as of October 1, 2023March 31, 2024 and January 1,December 31, 2023, respectively. These amounts are included in other assets in the Company’s consolidated condensed balance sheets. The Company amortizes these costs over the life of the related debt.

NOTE 6 – DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS
Interest Rate Risk Management
From time to time, the Company enters into interest rate swap transactions to fix the variable interest rate on a portion of its term loan borrowing in order to manage a portion of its exposure to interest rate fluctuations. The Company’s objective and strategy with respect to these interest rate swaps is to protect the Company against adverse fluctuations in interest rates by reducing its exposure to variability to cash flows relating to interest payments on a portion of its outstanding debt.
Cash Flow Interest Rate Swaps
In the fourth quarter of 2020, the Company terminated its designated interest rate swap transactions with a total notional value of $250 million. Hedge accounting was also discontinued at that time. Losses recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss for these terminated interest rate swaps are reclassified and recorded in the consolidated condensed statements of operations to the extent it is probable that a portion of the original forecasted transactions related to the portion of the hedged debt repaid will not occur by the end of the originally specified time period. See Note 14 entitled “Items Reclassified From Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss” for additional information.
As of October 1, 2023, all amounts related to the terminated interest rate swaps have been recognized in the consolidated condensed statements of operations, and there was no remaining balance in accumulated other comprehensive loss associated with the terminated interest rate swaps. As of January 1, 2023, the remaining accumulated other comprehensive loss associated with the terminated interest rate swaps to be amortized to earnings over the remaining term of the interest rate swaps prior to termination, before tax, was $1.0 million.

NOTE 87 – LEASES
General
The Company has operating and finance leases for manufacturing equipment, corporate offices, showrooms, distribution facilities, design centers, as well as computer and office equipment. The Company’s leases have terms ranging from 1 to 20 years, some of which may include options to extend the lease term for up to 5 years, and certain leases may include an option to terminate the lease. Our lease accounting may include these options to extend or terminate a lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option.
The Company records a right-of-use asset and lease liability for leases extending beyond one year for operating and finance leases once a contract that contains a lease is executed and we have the right to control the use of the leased asset. The right-of-use asset is measured as the present value of the lease obligation. The discount rate used to calculate the present value of the lease liability was the Company’s incremental borrowing rate for the applicable geographical region.
As of October 1, 2023, there were no significant leases that had not commenced.
The table below represents a summary of the balances recorded in the consolidated condensed balance sheets related to the Company’s leases as of October 1, 2023March 31, 2024 and January 1,December 31, 2023:

NOTE 1110 – SEGMENT INFORMATION
The Company determines that an operating segment exists if a component (i) engages in business activities from which it earns revenues and incurs expenses, (ii) has operating results that are regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) and (iii) has discrete financial information. Additionally, accounting standards require the utilization of a “management approach” to report the financial results of operating segments, which is based on information used by the CODM to assess performance and make operating and resource allocation decisions. The Company determined that it has two operating segments organized by geographical area – namely (a) Americas (“AMS”) and (b) Europe, Africa, Asia and Australia (collectively “EAAA”). The AMS operating segment includes the United States, Canada and Latin America geographic areas.
Pursuant to the management approach discussed above, the Company’s CODM, our chief executive officer, evaluates performance at the AMS and EAAA operating segment levels and makes operating and resource allocation decisions based on segment adjusted operating income (“AOI”), which includes allocations of corporate selling, general and administrative expenses.(“SG&A”) expenses and allocations of global support SG&A as discussed below. AOI excludesexcludes: nora purchase accounting amortization, Thailand plant closure inventory write-down,amortization; Cyber Event impact,impact; property casualty loss; and restructuring, asset impairment, severance, and other, net. Intersegment revenues for the three and nine months ended October 1,March 31, 2024 and April 2, 2023 were $25.0$16.8 million and $72.3 million, respectively, and intersegment revenues for the three and nine months ended October 2, 2022, were $19.7 million and $56.4$22.6 million, respectively. Intersegment revenues are eliminated from net sales presented below since these amounts are not included in the information provided to the CODM.
The Company has determined that it has two reportable segments – AMS and EAAA, as each operating segment meets the quantitative thresholds defined in the accounting guidance.
During the first quarter of 2024, the Company implemented a cost center realignment initiative to centralize certain global/shared functions. For the quarter ended March 31, 2024, SG&A expenses for these global support functions were allocated to AOI for each reportable segment consistent with the allocation methodology used to allocate corporate overhead in prior periods. Prior year AOI amounts below were not recast as there was no material impact to the measure of segment profit for each reportable segment. There were no changes to the composition of the Company’s operating or reportable segments.
Segment information for the three and nine months ended October 1,March 31, 2024 and April 2, 2023 and October 2, 2022, is presented in the following table:

NOTE 1312 – INCOME TAXES
The Company determines its provision for income taxes for interim periods using an estimate of its annual effective tax rate (“AETR”) and records any changes affecting the estimated AETR in the interim period in which the change occurs, including discrete tax items.
During the ninethree months ended October 1, 2023,March 31, 2024, the Company recorded a total income tax provision of $11.7$4.8 million on pre-tax income of $36.7$19.0 million resulting in an effective tax rate of 32.0%25.4%, as compared to a total income tax provision of $22.3$0.2 million on pre-tax incomeloss of $66.5$0.5 million resulting in ana negative effective tax rate of 33.6%35.2% during the ninethree months ended OctoberApril 2, 2022.2023. The decreaseyear-over-year change in the effective tax rate for the period ended October 1, 2023, as compared to the period ended October 2, 2022, wasis primarily due to favorable changes related to the cash surrender valuetax effects of Company-owned life insurance, non-recurring non-deductible charges related to the closure of the Company’s manufacturing facility in Thailand incurredpre-tax income in the first nine months of 2022,current year quarter compared to pre-tax loss in the prior year quarter and favorable changes related to foreign exchange movements. This decrease was partially offset by a non-recurring favorable changeshare-based compensation and the limitation on the deduction for business interest expenses under Internal Revenue Code section 163(j). The pre-tax loss for the three months ended April 2, 2023, included significant unusual or infrequent items that are specifically excluded from the AETR. The tax effects related to unrecognizedthese specifically excluded items are recognized discretely. The income tax benefits in the period ended October 2, 2022, non-deductible charges relatedrecognized discretely were at a lower effective tax rate compared to the substantial liquidationestimated AETR resulting in an overall negative effective tax rate for the three months ended April 2, 2023.
On December 20, 2021, the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (“OECD”) published Pillar Two Model Rules defining the global minimum tax, which calls for the taxation of subsidiarieslarge corporations at a minimum rate of 15%. The OECD has since issued administrative guidance providing transition and safe harbor rules around the implementation of the Pillar Two global minimum tax. Many non-U.S. tax jurisdictions have either recently enacted legislation to adopt certain components of the Pillar Two Model Rules beginning in Brazil2024 (including the European Union Member States) with the adoption of additional components in later years or announced their plans to enact legislation in future years. For fiscal year 2024, we expect to meet the Transitional Country-by-Country (CbCR) Safe Harbor rules for most if not all jurisdictions and Russia indo not expect these provisions to have a material impact on the period ended October 1, 2023,Company’s financial statements. We will continue to closely monitor ongoing developments and an increase in the valuation allowanceevaluate any potential impact on interest carryforwards.future periods.
In the first ninethree months of 2023,2024, the Company decreasedincreased its liability for unrecognized tax benefits by $0.3 million. As of October 1, 2023,March 31, 2024, the Company had accrued approximately $5.4$5.2 million for unrecognized tax benefits. In accordance with applicable accounting standards, the Company’s deferred tax asset as of October 1, 2023,March 31, 2024 reflects a reduction for $2.8 million of these unrecognized tax benefits.
Unrecognized tax benefits are reviewed on an ongoing basis and are adjusted for changing facts and circumstances, including the progress of tax audits and the closing of statutes of limitations. Based on information currently available,While it is reasonably possible that approximately $0.5 millionsome of the unrecognized tax benefits maywill be recognized within the next 12 months, the Company does not expect the recognition of which $0.5 million would result insuch amounts will have a favorablematerial impact toon the effective tax rate.Company’s financial results.

NOTE 1714 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
From time to time, we are a party to legal proceedings, whether arising in the ordinary course of business or otherwise. See disclosure under the headingsheading “Lawsuit by Former CEO in Connection with Termination” and “Putative Class Action Lawsuit” set forth in Note 18 to the consolidated financial statements included in Item 8 of the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 1,December 31, 2023.
In the lawsuit by the former CEO, Mr. Gould filed a motion for reconsideration of the Court’s grant of summary judgment in favor of the Company on Mr. Gould’s breach of contract claim. On July 31, 2023, the Court denied that motion for reconsideration. Also on July 31, 2023, the Company filed a motion to dismiss without prejudice its counterclaim against Mr. Gould for breach of fiduciary duty. On August 2, 2023, the Court granted that motion to dismiss, resulting in a final judgment in the trial court. The court’s award of summary judgment in favor of the Company on Mr. Gould’s breach of contract claim has been appealed by Mr. Gould to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 11th Circuit. The Company believes Mr. Gould’s lawsuit and the appeal therefrom is without merit and intends to defend vigorously against it.
In the putative class action, the Court preliminarily approved a settlement of the lawsuit for $7.5 million, and the Company’s insurers funded the settlement amount into escrow. As a result, in the second quarter of 2023, the Company reversed the $7.5 million asset and liability that were previously recorded in the first quarter of 2023. Putative class member proofs of claims were due by September 13, 2023, and in a hearing on October 19, 2023, the Court approved the final settlement of the action.

Consolidated operating income was $69.4 million for the first nine months of 2023, compared to $90.0 million in the same period last year. This decline was due to lower sales, inflationary pressures on raw materials, and lower manufacturing fixed cost absorption, partially offset by higher pricing, resulting in lower gross profit margin in the current year period coupled with higher selling, general and administrative costs. Consolidated net income for the nine months ended October 1, 2023, was $25.0$0.7 million or $0.43 per share, compared to $44.2 million or $0.75$0.01 per share in the same periodfirst quarter last year.
Cybersecurity Event
As previously disclosed in our current report on Form 8-K filed with the Commission on November 23, 2022, we discovered a cybersecurity attack on November 20, 2022, perpetrated by unauthorized third parties, affecting our IT systems on November 20, 2022. During the first nine months of 2023, we incurred approximately $1.0 million of additional expenses related to the investigation of the Cyber Event. These costs were primarily included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the consolidated condensed statement of operations.systems. The investigation of the Cyber Event was substantially completed early in the third quarter offiscal year 2023. We have cyber risk insurance and anticipate that a portion of our costs and expenses related to the Cyber Event will ultimately be recovered by insurance.
Our IT systems face a myriad of cybersecurity threats, including, without limitation, hacking, computer viruses, denial of service attacks, malware, ransomware, phishing scams, compromised or irretrievable backups, and other cyber attacks. Any of these events which deny us use of vital IT systems may seriously disrupt our normal business operations and lead to production or shipping stoppages, revenue loss, and reputational harm. We also expect to incur ongoing costs for enhanced data security against unauthorized access to, or manipulation of, our systems and data.
Impact of Macroeconomic Trends
The continued disruptionRecent disruptions in economic markets due to highpersistent inflation, increases inhigh interest rates, the Russia-Ukraine war and the Israel-Hamas war, a fairly stabilized but still challenging supply chain environment, a slow post COVID recovery in China and slow market conditions in the restparts of Asia, and significant financial pressures in the commercial office market globally, all pose challenges which may adversely affect our future performance.performance These impacts have increased our costs and adversely affected our gross profit margin.. To mitigate these impacts, we plan to continue evaluating our cost structure and global manufacturing footprint to identify and activate opportunities to decrease costs and optimize our global cost structure.

Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources
General
At October 1, 2023,March 31, 2024, the Company had $119.6$89.8 million in cash. At that date, the Company had $143.4$96.0 million in term loan borrowings, $5.9 million inno revolving loan borrowings, and $1.6 million in letters of credit outstanding under our Facility, and we had $300.0 million of Senior Notes outstanding. As of October 1, 2023,March 31, 2024, we had additional borrowing capacity of $292.5$298.4 million under the Facility. We anticipate that our liquidity is sufficient to meet our obligations for the next 12 months, and we expect to generate sufficient cash to meet our long-term obligations.
The Senior Notes are unsecured and are guaranteed, jointly and severally, by each of the Company’s material domestic subsidiaries, all of which also guarantee the obligations of the Company under its Facility. The Company’s foreign subsidiaries and certain non-material domestic subsidiaries are considered non-guarantors. Net sales for the non-guarantor subsidiaries were approximately $148$133 million and $431$141 million for the three-month and nine-month periods ended October 1,March 31, 2024 and April 2, 2023, respectively, and net sales for the non-guarantor subsidiaries were approximately $147 million and $443 million for the three-month and nine-month periods ended October 2, 2022, respectively. Total indebtedness of the non-guarantor subsidiaries was approximately $131$128 million and $133 million as of October 1, 2023. Included in this $131 million is $99 million of indebtedness from the non-guarantor subsidiaries to guarantor subsidiaries, resulting from the dividend of an asset — a note receivable — by a non-guarantor subsidiary to a guarantor subsidiary. Total indebtedness of non-guarantor subsidiaries was approximately $43 million as of January 1, 2023. There was no indebtedness from non-guarantor subsidiaries to guarantor subsidiaries as of January 1, 2023.March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.
Balance Sheet
Accounts receivable, net, were $143.9$147.2 million at October 1, 2023,March 31, 2024, compared to $182.8$163.4 million at January 1,December 31, 2023. The decrease of $38.9$16.2 million was primarily due to customer collections in the first nine months of 2023, includingand the impact of delayslower net sales as a result of decreased customer demand in customer billings from the Cyber Event, in which the due dates for those delayed billings were pushed from the fourth quarter of 2022 to the first quarter of 2023.2024.
Inventories, net, were $289.3$296.3 million at October 1, 2023,March 31, 2024, compared to $306.3$279.1 million at January 1,December 31, 2023. The decreaseincrease of $17.0$17.2 million was primarily due to lower manufacturing volume andfinished goods inventory build dueattributable to reducedexpected higher customer demand and improvements in working capital management.the remainder of 2024, partially offset by lower raw material costs.

Cash provided by operating activities was $114.2$12.6 million for the ninethree months ended October 1, 2023,March 31, 2024, which represents an increasea decrease of $99.3$17.0 million from the prior year comparable period. The increase in operating cash flowsdecrease was primarily due to changes in working capital during the first three months of 2024 compared with the first three months of 2023. Specifically, the prior year comparable period includes a greater source of cash from working capital duringaccounts receivable collections compared with the first ninethree months of 2023. Specifically, customer collections in the first nine months of 2023 contributed to a decrease in accounts receivable,2024, primarily attributable to delays in customer billings from the Cyber Event, in which the due dates for those delayed billings were pushed from the fourth quarter of 2022 tocollected in the first quarter of 2023.

Cash used in investing activities was $10.6$2.0 million for the ninethree months ended October 1, 2023,March 31, 2024, which represents a decrease of $2.7$3.7 million from the prior year comparable period. The decreased use of cash from the comparable prior year perioddecrease was primarily attributable to cash proceeds of approximately $6.6 millionreceived from the sale of the Company’s Thailand manufacturing facility in the second quarterequipment and insurance proceeds for property casualty losses, both of 2023,which partially offset by highercash used for capital expenditures due to increased capital investment.during the three months ended March 31, 2024.
Cash used in financing activities was $80.8$29.8 million for the ninethree months ended October 1, 2023,March 31, 2024, which represents an increase of $70.4$8.7 million from the prior year comparable period. The increased use of cash from the comparable periodyear-over-year increase was primarily due to lower revolving loan borrowings combined with higher repayments of term loan and revolving loan borrowings during the three months ended March 31, 2024.
Outlook

We anticipate revenue growth in 2023 as a resultthe second quarter of cash generated from operating activities as described above.

We also anticipate that the continued slow macro environment in China, high interest rates, and freight offset by continued lower manufacturing fixed cost absorption versussignificant financial pressures in the comparable prior year period. We are also anticipating higher selling, general,commercial office market globally will continue to adversely impact our performance and administrative costsdemand for fiscal year 2023 versus the comparable prior year period primarily due to inflation.our products.
Cash flows from operations, cash and cash equivalents, and other sources of liquidity are expected to be available and sufficient to meet foreseeable cash requirements. However, the Company’s cash flows from operations can be affected by numerous factors including raw material availability and cost, and demand for our products, and the timing of accounts receivable collections and the timing of payments for accounts payable and accrued liabilities.products.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
The discussion below in this Item 3 is based upon the more detailed discussions of our market risk and related matters included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 1,December 31, 2023, under Part II, Item 7A of that Form 10-K. The discussion here focuses on the ninethree months ended October 1, 2023,March 31, 2024, and any material changes from (or other important intervening developments since the time of) the information discussed in that Form 10-K. This discussion should be read in conjunction with that Form 10-K for more detailed and background information.
Sensitivity Analysis
For purposes of specific risk analysis, we use sensitivity analysis to measure the impact that market risk may have on the fair values of our market sensitive instruments. To perform sensitivity analysis, we assess the risk of loss in fair values associated with the impact of hypothetical changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates on market sensitive instruments.
Because the debt outstanding under our Facility has variable interest rates based on an underlying prime lending rate, SOFR, or other benchmark rate, we do not believe changes in interest rates would have any significant impact on the fair value of that debt instrument. Changes in the underlying prime lending rate, SOFR, or other benchmark rate would, however, impact the amount of our interest expense. For a discussion of these hypothetical impacts on our interest expense, please see the discussion in Part II, Item 7A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 1,December 31, 2023.
As of October 1, 2023,March 31, 2024, based on a hypothetical immediate 100 basis point increase in interest rates, with all other variables held constant, the fair value of our fixed rate long-term debt would be impacted by a net decrease of $10.9$11.3 million. Conversely, a 100 basis point decrease in interest rates would result in a net increase in the fair value of our fixed rate long-term debt of $11.5$11.9 million.
As of October 1, 2023,March 31, 2024, a 10% decrease or increase in the levels of foreign currency exchange rates against the U.S. dollar, with all other variables held constant, would result in a decrease in the fair value of our financial instruments of $12.0$9.1 million or an increase in the fair value of our financial instruments of $14.6$11.1 million, respectively. As the impact of offsetting changes in the fair market value of our net foreign investments is not included in the sensitivity model, these results are not indicative of our actual exposure to foreign currency exchange risk.
