Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]  
DERIVATIVES DERIVATIVES
Our operations in foreign countries expose us to risk associated with foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations between the U.S. dollar and various foreign currencies, primarily the Euro. To partially mitigate the impact of changes in currency exchange rates on net cash flows from our foreign currency denominated sales as well as outstanding monetary assets and liabilities, we enter into foreign currency exchange forward contracts. In general, the risk of foreign currency fluctuations related to our operations is offset by corresponding gains and losses from our derivative instruments. By working only with major banks and closely monitoring current market conditions, we seek to limit the credit risk that counterparties to these contracts may be unable to perform. We enter into contracts that permit net settlement at maturity. In addition, our overall risk of loss in the event of counterparty default is limited to the amount of any net unrealized gains on outstanding contracts (i.e., including the impact of offsetting unrealized losses). We do not enter into derivative contracts for trading purposes.
The derivative instruments we use to mitigate our exposures for certain monetary assets and liabilities that are denominated in a non-functional currency are not designated as hedges. The derivative instruments we use to mitigate our exposures for forecasted product sales are designated as cash flow hedges and have maturities of 18 months or less.
We held foreign currency exchange contracts with outstanding notional amounts of $3.6 billion and $3.9 billion as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively.
While all our derivative contracts allow us the right to offset assets and liabilities, we have presented amounts on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets on a gross basis. Further, our contracts generally do not require financial collateral. The following table summarizes the classification and fair values of derivative instruments, including the potential effect of offsetting:
