Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measurements | 8. Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measurements In the normal course of business, the Company is exposed to certain risks arising from business operations and economic factors. The Company may use derivative financial instruments to help manage market risk and reduce the exposure to fluctuations in interest rates and foreign currencies. These financial instruments are not used for trading or other speculative purposes. Cross-Currency Swaps The Company is party to certain cross-currency swaps to hedge a portion of our foreign currency risk. The swap agreements mature June 2024 (€1,625 million) and July 2027 (£700 million). In addition to cross-currency swaps, we hedge a portion of our foreign currency risk by designating foreign currency denominated long-term debt as net investment hedges of certain foreign operations. As of April 1, 2023, we had outstanding long-term debt of €785 million that was designated as a hedge of our net investment in certain euro-denominated foreign subsidiaries. When valuing cross-currency swaps the Company utilizes Level 2 inputs (substantially observable). Interest Rate Swaps The primary purpose of the Company’s interest rate swap activities is to manage interest expense variability associated with our outstanding variable rate term loan debt. When valuing interest rate swaps the Company utilizes Level 2 inputs (substantially observable). During fiscal 2023, the Company elected to cash settle existing interest rate swaps and received net proceeds of $36 million. The offset is included in Accumulated other comprehensive loss and is being amortized to Interest expense through the term of the original swaps. Following the settlement, the Company entered into interest rate swaps with matching notional amounts with expiration in June 2026. As of April 1, 2023, the Company effectively had (i) a $450 million interest rate swap transaction that swaps a one-month variable LIBOR contract for a fixed annual rate of 4.128%, (ii) a $400 million interest rate swap transaction that swaps a one-month variable LIBOR contract for a fixed annual rate of 4.522%, (iii) a $473 million interest rate swap transaction that swaps a one-month variable LIBOR contract for a fixed annual rate of 3.961%, (iv) an $884 million interest rate swap transaction that swaps a one-month variable LIBOR contract for a fixed annual rate of 4.522%, and (v) a $500 million interest rate swap transaction that swaps a one-month variable LIBOR contract for a fixed annual rate of 3.672%. The Company's interest rate swap transactions all expire in June 2026.

The Company adjusts certain long-lived assets to fair value only when the carrying values exceed the fair values. The categorization of the framework used to value the assets is considered Level 3, due to the subjective nature of the unobservable inputs used to determine the fair value. These assets that are subject to our annual impairment analysis primarily include our definite lived and indefinite lived intangible assets, including Goodwill and our property, plant and equipment. The Company reviews Goodwill and other indefinite lived assets for impairment as of the first day of the fourth fiscal quarter each year and more frequently if impairment indicators exist. The Company determined Goodwill and other indefinite lived assets were not impaired in our annual fiscal 2022 assessment. No impairment indicators were identified in the current quarter. Included in the following table are the major categories of assets measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis as of April 1, 2023 and October 1, 2022, along with the impairment loss recognized on the fair value measurement during the period: As of April 1, 2023 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Impairment Indefinite-lived trademarks $ — $ — $ 248 $ 248 $ — Goodwill — — 5,032 5,032 — Definite lived intangible assets — — 1,586 1,586 — Property, plant, and equipment — — 4,612 4,612 4 Total $ — $ — $ 11,478 $ 11,478 $ 4 As of October 1, 2022 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Impairment Indefinite-lived trademarks $ — $ — $ 247 $ 247 $ — Goodwill — — 4,832 4,832 — Definite lived intangible assets — — 1,606 1,606 — Property, plant, and equipment — — 4,342 4,342 — Total $ — $ — $ 11,027 $ 11,027 $ — The Company’s financial instruments consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, long-term debt, interest rate and cross-currency swap agreements, and finance lease obligations.
