DIEBOLD, INCORPORATED AND SUBSIDIARIES
FORM 10-Q as of September 30, 2014
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)
(dollars in thousands, except per share amounts)



NOTE 1: CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Diebold, Incorporated and its subsidiaries (collectively, the Company) have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and therefore do not include all information and footnotes necessary for a fair presentation of financial position, results of operations and cash flows in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP); however, such information reflects all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments) that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods.
The condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013. In addition, some of the Company’s statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q may involve risks and uncertainties that could significantly impact expected future results. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full year.
The Company has reclassified the presentation of certain prior-year information to conform to the current presentation.

The Company's Venezuelan operations consist of a fifty-percent owned subsidiary, which is consolidated. Venezuela is measured using the U.S. dollar as its functional currency because its economy is considered highly inflationary. On March 24, 2014, the Venezuelan government announced a currency exchange mechanism, SICAD 2, which yielded an exchange rate significantly higher than the rates established through the other regulated exchange mechanisms. Management has determined that it is unlikely that the Company will be able to convert bolivars under a currency exchange other than SICAD 2. On March 31, 2014, the Company remeasured its Venezuelan balance sheet using the SICAD 2 rate of 50.86 compared to the previous official government rate of 6.30, resulting in a decrease of $6,051 to the Company’s cash balance and net losses of $12,101 that were recorded within foreign exchange gain (loss), net in the condensed consolidated statements of operations in the first quarter of 2014. In addition, as a result of the currency devaluation, the Company recorded a $4,073 lower of cost or market adjustment related to its service inventory within service cost of sales in the condensed consolidated statements of operations in the first quarter of 2014. In the future, if the Company converts bolivars at a rate other than the SICAD 2 rate, the Company may realize additional gains or losses that would be recorded in the statements of operations. The Company's Venezuelan operations represented less than one percent of the Company's total assets as of September 30, 2014 and less than one percent of net sales for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014. The Company does not expect its Venezuelan operations to be a significant component of its consolidated revenue or operating profit for the remainder of 2014.

In the second quarter of 2014, the Company divested its Diebold Eras, Incorporated (Eras) subsidiary for a sale price of $20,000, including installment payments of $1,000 on the first and second year anniversary dates of the closing. This sale resulted in a gain of $13,709 recognized within gain on sale of assets, net in the condensed consolidated statement of operations. Revenue and operating profit in the nine months ended September 30, 2014 related to this divested subsidiary were $6,011 and $2,970, respectively, and are included within the North America (NA) segment. Net income before taxes related to this divested subsidiary are included in continuing operations and were $0 and $1,138 for the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and $2,978 and $3,221 for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

In the third quarter of 2013, the Company acquired 100 percent of the equity interests of Cryptera A/S (Cryptera), a supplier of the Company's encrypting PIN pad technology and a world leader in the research and development of secure payment technologies. This acquisition is expected to position the Company as a significant original equipment manufacturer of secure payment technologies and is expected to allow the Company to own more of the intellectual property related to its ATMs. The total purchase price was approximately $13,000, including a 10 percent deferred cash payment payable on the first anniversary of the acquisition. The results of operations for Cryptera are included in the Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) segment within the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements from the date of the acquisition.

Recently Adopted Accounting Guidance
In July 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2013-11, Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists (ASU 2013-11), which requires entities to present an unrecognized tax benefit as a reduction of a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss (NOL) or tax credit carryforward whenever the NOL or tax credit carryforward would be available to reduce

the additional taxable income or tax due if the tax position is disallowed. This accounting standard update requires entities to assess whether to net the unrecognized tax benefit with a deferred tax asset as of the reporting date. The adoption of this update did not have a material impact on the financial statements of the Company.

In April 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-08, Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity (ASU 2014-08), which includes amendments that change the requirements for reporting discontinued operations and require additional disclosures about discontinued operations. Under the new guidance, only disposals representing a strategic shift in operations should be presented as discontinued operations. Those strategic shifts should have a major effect on the organization’s operations and financial results. Additionally, ASU 2014-08 requires expanded disclosures about discontinued operations that will provide financial statement users with more information about the assets, liabilities, income and expenses of discontinued operations. In the second quarter of 2014, the Company elected to early adopt ASU 2014-08. The adoption of this update did not have a material impact on the financial statements of the Company.

Recently Issued Accounting Guidance
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (ASU 2014-09), which requires an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. The ASU will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP when it becomes effective. The standard is effective for the Company on January 1, 2017. Early application is not permitted. The standard permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. The Company is evaluating the effect that ASU 2014-09 will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. The Company has not yet selected a transition method nor has it determined the effect of the standard on its ongoing financial reporting.

NOTE 2: EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE
Basic earnings (loss) per share is based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings (loss) per share includes the dilutive effect of potential common shares outstanding. Under the two-class method of computing earnings (loss) per share, non-vested share-based payment awards that contain rights to receive non-forfeitable dividends are considered participating securities. The Company’s participating securities include restricted stock units (RSUs), deferred shares and shares that were vested, but deferred by the employee. The Company calculated basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share under both the treasury stock method and the two-class method. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, there was no impact in the per share amounts calculated under the two methods. Accordingly, the treasury stock method is disclosed below.

The following represents amounts used in computing earnings (loss) per share and the effect on the weighted-average number of shares of dilutive potential common shares:

NOTE 6: INCOME TAXES
The effective tax rate on income was 27.0 percent for the three months ended September 30, 2014 and the effective tax rate on the loss was 28.2 percent for the three months ended September 30, 2013. The third quarter 2014 rate was lower than the statutory rate because of earnings in lower-tax jurisdictions and tax benefits from discrete items recorded in the quarter. The reduced third quarter 2013 tax rate differed from the statutory rate mainly as a result of the non-deductible portion of the Company's Brazil goodwill impairment recorded during a quarter with overall losses.
The effective tax rate on income was 31.3 percent for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and the effective tax rate on the loss was (95.3) percent for the nine months ended September 30, 2013. The tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 includes a benefit from the release of a valuation allowance against excess capital losses offset by the negative impact of tax on foreign entities not permanently reinvested and the December 31, 2013 expiration of the Federal Research and Development Tax Credit and the Look-Thru Rule for Related Controlled Foreign Corporations under Section 954(c)(6) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. The negative tax rate for 2013 resulted from tax expense related to the repatriation of previously undistributed earnings and the establishment of a valuation allowance on deferred tax assets in the Company’s Brazilian manufacturing facility.
During the second quarter of 2014, the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) completed its examination of the Company’s U.S. federal income tax returns for the years 2008-2010 and issued a Revenue Agent’s Report (RAR) that includes various proposed adjustments, including adjustments related to transfer pricing. The net tax deficiency, excluding interest, associated with the RAR is $6,300 after net operating loss utilization. In May 2014, the Company filed a protest challenging proposed adjustments contained in the RAR and will pursue resolution of these issues with the Appeals Division of the IRS. The Company believes it has adequately provided for any related uncertain tax positions.

NOTE 7: INVESTMENTS
The Company’s investments, primarily in Brazil, consist of certificates of deposit and U.S. dollar indexed bond funds, which are classified as available-for-sale and stated at fair value based upon quoted market prices and net asset values, respectively. Unrealized gains and losses are recorded in AOCI. Realized gains and losses are recognized in investment income and are determined using the specific identification method. Realized (losses) gains from the sale of securities were $(194) and $1,533 for the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and $538 and $1,726 for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Proceeds from the sale of available-for-sale securities were $39,586 and $22,711 during the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

The Company’s investments, excluding cash surrender value of insurance contracts of $71,607 and $72,214 as of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively, consisted of the following:

NOTE 8: ALLOWANCE FOR CREDIT LOSSES
Trade Receivables The Company evaluates the collectability of trade receivables based on a percentage of sales related to historical loss experience. The Company will also record periodic adjustments for known events such as specific customer circumstances and changes in the aging of accounts receivable balances. After all efforts at collection have been unsuccessful, the account is deemed uncollectible and is written off.
Financing Receivables The Company evaluates the collectability of notes and finance lease receivables (collectively, financing receivables) on a customer-by-customer basis and evaluates specific customer circumstances, aging of invoices, credit risk changes, payment patterns and historical loss experience. When the collectability is determined to be at risk based on the above criteria, the Company records the allowance for credit losses, which represents the Company’s current exposure less estimated reimbursement from insurance claims. After all efforts at collection have been unsuccessful, the account is deemed uncollectible and is written off.
The following table summarizes the Company’s allowance for credit losses for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013:

The Company's allowance of $4,500 and $446 at September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, all resulted from individual impairment evaluation. As of September 30, 2014, finance leases and notes receivable individually evaluated for impairment were $166,572 and $18,053, respectively. As of September 30, 2013, finance leases and notes receivable individually evaluated for impairment were $88,216 and $16,343, respectively. As of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Company’s finance lease receivables in Brazil were $111,762 and $33,283, respectively. The increase related to customer financing arrangements within the education ministry.
The Company records interest income and any fees or costs related to financing receivables using the effective interest method over the term of the lease or loan. The Company reviews the aging of its financing receivables to determine past due and delinquent accounts. Credit quality is reviewed at inception and is re-evaluated as needed based on customer-specific circumstances. Receivable balances 60 days to 89 days past due are reviewed and may be placed on nonaccrual status based on customer-specific circumstances. Receivable balances are placed on nonaccrual status upon reaching greater than 89 days past due. Upon receipt of payment on nonaccrual financing receivables, interest income is recognized and accrual of interest is resumed once the account has been made current or the specific circumstances have been resolved.
As of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the recorded investment in past-due financing receivables on nonaccrual status was $2,960 and $1,670, respectively, and there were no recorded investments in finance receivables past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest. The recorded investment in impaired notes receivable was $4,134 as of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 and was fully reserved.

NOTE 10: GOODWILL AND OTHER ASSETS
Goodwill Goodwill is reviewed annually for impairment in the fourth quarter. There have been no impairment indicators identified in any of the reporting units during the nine months ended September 30, 2014. During the third quarter of 2013, the Company performed an other-than-annual assessment for its Brazil reporting unit based on a two-step impairment test as a result of a reduced earnings outlook for the Brazil business unit. The Company concluded that the goodwill within the Brazil reporting unit was partially impaired and recorded a $70,000 pre-tax, non-cash goodwill impairment charge. In connection with the 2013 fourth quarter annual goodwill impairment test, the Company concluded the Asia Pacific (AP) reporting unit had excess fair value of approximately $23,000 or eight percent when compared to its carrying amount. The amount of goodwill in the Company’s AP reporting unit was $41,544 and $41,307 as of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. As of December 31, 2013, the Domestic and Canada and Latin America (LA) reporting units had excess fair value significantly greater than their carrying amounts.

Other Assets Included in other assets are net capitalized software development costs of $37,244 and $40,235 as of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. Amortization expense on capitalized software included in product cost of sales was $4,543 and $5,369 for the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and $13,467 and $16,620 for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Other long-term assets also consist of patents, trademarks and other intangible assets. Where applicable, other assets are stated at cost and, if applicable, are amortized ratably over the relevant contract period or the estimated life of the assets. Fees to renew or extend the term of the Company’s intangible assets are expensed when incurred.

Impairment of long-lived assets is recognized when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. If the expected future undiscounted cash flows are less than the carrying amount of the asset group, an impairment loss may be recognized at that time to reduce the asset to the lower of its fair value or its net book value.

As of September 30, 2014, the Company had various international short-term uncommitted lines of credit with borrowing limits of $124,096. The weighted-average interest rate on outstanding borrowings on the short-term uncommitted lines of credit as of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 was 2.91 percent and 3.24 percent, respectively. The decrease in the weighted-average interest rate is attributable to the change in mix of borrowings in foreign entities. Short-term uncommitted lines mature in less than one year. The amount available under the short-term uncommitted lines at September 30, 2014 was $41,337.
In August 2014, the Company amended and extended its credit facility. As of September 30, 2014, the Company has increased its borrowing limits under its new credit facility from $500,000 to $520,000. The amended and extended credit facility expires in August 2019 and did not change any of the covenants related to the previous agreement. Under the terms of the amended and extended credit facility, the Company has the ability, subject to various approvals, to increase the borrowing limits by $250,000. Up to $50,000 of the revolving credit facility is available under a swing line sub-facility. The weighted-average interest rate on outstanding credit facility borrowings as of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 was 1.48 percent and 1.36 percent, respectively, which is variable based on the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR). The amount available under the credit facility as of September 30, 2014 was $204,987.

In March 2006, the Company issued senior notes in an aggregate principal amount of $300,000 with a weighted-average fixed interest rate of 5.50 percent. The Company entered into a derivative transaction to hedge interest rate risk on $200,000 of the senior notes, which was treated as a cash flow hedge. This reduced the effective interest rate from 5.50 percent to 5.36 percent. The Company funded the repayment of $75,000 of the senior notes at maturity in March 2013 using borrowings under its revolving credit facility. The maturity dates of the remaining senior notes are staggered, with $175,000 and $50,000 due in 2016 and 2018, respectively.
In 1997, industrial development revenue bonds were issued on behalf of the Company. The proceeds from the bond issuances were used to construct new manufacturing facilities in the United States. The Company guaranteed the payments of principal and interest on the bonds by obtaining letters of credit. The bonds were issued with a 20-year original term and are scheduled to mature in 2017. Each industrial development revenue bond carries a variable interest rate, which is reset weekly by the remarketing agents. The weighted-average interest rate on the bonds was 0.28 percent and 0.36 percent as of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.
The Company’s financing agreements contain various restrictive financial covenants, including net debt to capitalization and net interest coverage ratios. As of September 30, 2014, the Company was in compliance with the financial and other covenants in its debt agreements.

NOTE 12: BENEFIT PLANS
The Company has qualified pension plans covering certain U.S. employees that have been closed to new participants since 2003. Plans that cover salaried employees provide pension benefits based on the employee’s compensation during the ten years before retirement. The Company’s funding policy for salaried plans is to contribute annually based on actuarial projections and applicable regulations. Plans covering hourly employees and union members generally provide benefits of stated amounts for each year of service. The Company’s funding policy for hourly plans is to make at least the minimum annual contributions required by applicable regulations. Employees of the Company’s operations in countries outside of the United States participate to varying degrees in local pension plans, which in the aggregate are not significant.

The Company has non-qualified pension plans to provide supplemental retirement benefits to certain officers. Benefits are payable at retirement based upon a percentage of the participant’s compensation, as defined.

In July 2013, the Company's board of directors approved freezing certain pension and SERP plan benefits effective as of December 31, 2013 for U.S.-based salaried employees.  The Company recognized the plan freeze in the three months ended September 30, 2013 as a curtailment, since it eliminates for a significant number of participants the accrual of defined benefits for all of their future services.  The impact of the curtailment includes the one-time accelerated recognition of outstanding unamortized pre-tax prior service cost of $809 within general and administrative expense and a pre-tax reduction in AOCI of $52,550, attributable to the decrease in long-term pension liabilities.  This curtailment event triggered a re-measurement for the affected benefit plans as of July 31, 2013 using a discount rate of 5.06 percent.  The process for establishing the discount rate was consistent with the process utilized at our annual plan re-measurement date.  The re-measurement resulted in a further reduction of long-term pension liabilities and AOCI (pre-tax) related to the actuarial gain occurring during the year of $71,008

In addition to providing pension benefits, the Company provides post-retirement healthcare and life insurance benefits (referred to as other benefits) for certain retired employees. Eligible employees may be entitled to these benefits based upon years of service with the Company, age at retirement and collective bargaining agreements. Currently, the Company has made no commitments to increase these benefits for existing retirees or for employees who may become eligible for these benefits in the future. Currently there are no plan assets and the Company funds the benefits as the claims are paid.

Contributions
In the third quarter of 2014, the Company made a voluntary contribution to its qualified pension plan of $5,000. For the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, contributions of $8,674 and $2,662, respectively, were made to the qualified and non-qualified pension plans.

NOTE 13: GUARANTEES AND PRODUCT WARRANTIES
In 1997, industrial development revenue bonds were issued on behalf of the Company. The Company guaranteed the payments of principal and interest on the bonds (refer to note 11) by obtaining letters of credit. The carrying value of the bonds was $11,900 as of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013.
The Company provides its global operations guarantees and standby letters of credit through various financial institutions for suppliers, customers, regulatory agencies and insurance providers. If the Company is not able to make payment or fulfill contractual obligations, the suppliers, customers, regulatory agencies and insurance providers may draw on the pertinent bank. At September 30, 2014, the maximum future payment obligations related to these various guarantees totaled $96,534, of which $27,985 represented standby letters of credit to insurance providers, and no associated liability was recorded. At December 31, 2013, the maximum future payment obligations relative to these various guarantees totaled $87,104, of which $26,035 represented standby letters of credit to insurance providers, and no associated liability was recorded.
The Company provides its customers a manufacturer’s warranty and records, at the time of the sale, a corresponding estimated liability for potential warranty costs. Estimated future obligations due to warranty claims are based upon historical factors such as labor rates, average repair time, travel time, number of service calls per machine and cost of replacement parts. As of September 30, 2014 and 2013, the Company’s warranty liability balances were $106,977 and $75,487, respectively. The increase in warranty is largely attributable to sales to the education ministry in our Brazil segment.

NOTE 14: COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Contractual Obligations
At September 30, 2014, the Company had purchase commitments due within one year of $4,807 for materials through contract manufacturing agreements at negotiated prices.

Indirect Tax Contingencies
The Company accrues non income-tax liabilities for indirect tax matters when management believes that a loss is probable and
the amounts can be reasonably estimated, while contingent gains are recognized only when realized. In the event any losses are
sustained in excess of accruals, they are charged against income. In evaluating indirect tax matters, management takes into consideration factors such as historical experience with matters of similar nature, specific facts and circumstances, and the likelihood of prevailing. Management evaluates and updates accruals as matters progress over time. It is reasonably possible that some of the matters for which accruals have not been established could be decided unfavorably to the Company and could require recognizing future expenditures. Also, statutes of limitations could expire without the Company paying the taxes for matters for which accruals have been established, which could result in the recognition of future gains upon reversal of these accruals at that time.

At September 30, 2014, the Company was a party to several routine indirect tax claims from various taxing authorities globally that were incurred in the normal course of business, none of which individually or in the aggregate is considered material by management in relation to the Company’s financial position or results of operations. In management’s opinion, the condensed consolidated financial statements would not be materially affected by the outcome of these indirect tax claims and/or proceedings or asserted claims.

In addition to these routine indirect tax matters, the Company was a party to the proceedings described below:

In August 2012, one of the Company's Brazilian subsidiaries was notified of a tax assessment of approximately R$270,000, including penalties and interest, regarding certain Brazilian federal indirect taxes (Industrialized Products Tax, Import Tax, Programa de Integração Social and Contribution to Social Security Financing) for 2008 and 2009. The assessment alleges improper importation of certain components into Brazil's free trade zone that would nullify certain indirect tax incentives. On September 10, 2012, the Company filed its administrative defenses with the tax authorities. This proceeding is currently pending an administrative level decision, which could negatively impact Brazilian federal indirect taxes in other years that remain open under statute. It is reasonably possible that the Company could be required to pay taxes, penalties and interest related to this matter, which could be material to the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements.

In response to an order by the administrative court, the tax inspector provided further analysis with respect to the initial assessment in December 2013, which has now been accepted by the initial administrative court, that indicates a potential exposure that is significantly lower than the initial tax assessment received in August 2012. However, this matter remains subject to ongoing administrative proceedings and appeals. Accordingly, the Company cannot provide any assurance that its exposure pursuant to the initial assessment will be lowered significantly or at all. The Company continues to defend itself in the administrative proceedings.

In connection with the Brazilian indirect tax assessment, in May 2013, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC)requested that the Company retain certain documents and produce certain records relating to the assessment, to which the Company complied. However, in September 2014, the Company was notified by the SEC that it had closed its inquiry relating to the assessment.

In addition, the Company is challenging a customs ruling in Thailand seeking to retroactively collect customs duties on previous imports of Automated Teller Machines (ATM). Management believes that the customs authority’s attempt to retroactively assess customs duties is in contravention of World Trade Organization agreements and, accordingly, is challenging the ruling. In July 2014, the Central Tax Court in Thailand dismissed the Company’s complaint; however, the Company will be appealing this decision, and management continues to believe that the Company has a valid legal position for supporting its challenge. Accordingly, the Company has not accrued any amount for this contingency; however, the Company cannot provide any assurance that it will not ultimately be subject to a retroactive assessment.

(dollars in thousands, except per share amounts)


At September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Company had an accrual of approximately $26,000 related to the Brazilian indirect tax matter disclosed above.
A loss contingency is reasonably possible if it has a more than remote but less than probable chance of occurring. Although management believes the Company has valid defenses with respect to its indirect tax positions, it is reasonably possible that a loss could occur in excess of the estimated accrual, for which the Company estimated the aggregate risk at September 30, 2014 to be up to approximately $395,000 for its material indirect tax matters, of which approximately $355,000 and $26,000, respectively, relates to the Brazilian indirect tax matter and Thailand customs matter disclosed above. The aggregate risk related to indirect taxes is adjusted as the applicable statutes of limitations expire.

Legal Contingencies
At September 30, 2014, the Company was a party to several lawsuits that were incurred in the normal course of business, none of which individually or in the aggregate is considered material by management in relation to the Company’s financial position or results of operations. In addition, the Company has indemnification obligations with certain former employees, and costs associated with these indemnifications are expensed as incurred. In management’s opinion, the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements would not be materially affected by the outcome of these legal proceedings, commitments or asserted claims.

NOTE 15: DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES
The Company uses derivatives to mitigate the economic consequences associated with fluctuations in currencies and interest rates.
Foreign Exchange
Net Investment Hedges The Company has international subsidiaries with net balance sheet positions that generate cumulative translation adjustments within AOCI. The Company uses derivatives to manage potential changes in value of its net investments in Brazil. The Company uses the forward-to-forward method for its quarterly retrospective and prospective assessments of hedge effectiveness. No ineffectiveness results if the notional amount of the derivative matches the portion of the net investment designated as being hedged because the Company uses derivative instruments with underlying exchange rates consistent with its functional currency and the functional currency of the hedged net investment. Changes in value that are deemed effective are accumulated in AOCI where they will remain until they are reclassified to income together with the gain or loss on the entire investment upon substantial liquidation of the subsidiary. The fair value of the Company’s net investment hedge contracts was $(3,070) and $313 as of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. The net (loss) gain recognized in AOCI on net investment hedge derivative instruments was $(3,750) and $684 in the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and $1,745 and $(3,421) in the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
Non-Designated Hedges A substantial portion of the Company’s operations and revenues are international. As a result, changes in foreign exchange rates can create substantial foreign exchange gains and losses from the revaluation of non-functional currency monetary assets and liabilities. The Company’s policy allows the use of foreign exchange forward contracts with maturities of up to 24 months to mitigate the impact of currency fluctuations on those foreign currency asset and liability balances. The Company elected not to apply hedge accounting to its foreign exchange forward contracts. Thus, spot-based gains/losses offset revaluation gains/losses within foreign exchange gain (loss), net and forward-based gains/losses represent interest expense. The fair value of the Company’s non-designated foreign exchange forward contracts was $8,041 and $705 as of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.
The following table summarizes the gain (loss) recognized on non-designated foreign-exchange derivative instruments for the three and nine months ended September 30:

Interest Rate
Cash Flow Hedges The Company has variable rate debt that is subject to fluctuations in interest related cash flows due to changes in market interest rates. The Company’s policy allows derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges that fix a portion of future variable-rate interest expense. As of September 30, 2014, the Company had two pay-fixed receive-variable interest rate swaps, with a total notional amount of $50,000, to hedge against changes in the LIBOR benchmark interest rate on a portion of the Company’s LIBOR-based borrowings. Changes in value that are deemed effective are accumulated in AOCI and reclassified to interest expense when the hedged interest is accrued. To the extent that it becomes probable that the Company’s variable rate borrowings will not occur, the gains or losses on the related cash flow hedges will be reclassified from AOCI to interest expense. The fair value of the Company’s interest rate contracts was $(1,478) and $(2,351) as of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.
In December 2005 and January 2006, the Company executed cash flow hedges by entering into receive-variable and pay-fixed interest rate swaps, with a total notional amount of $200,000, related to the senior notes issuance in March 2006. Amounts previously recorded in AOCI related to the pre-issuance cash flow hedges will continue to be reclassified on a straight-line basis through February 2016.

The gain recognized on designated cash flow hedge derivative instruments was $350 and $101 for the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and $841 and $935 for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Gains and losses related to interest rate contracts that are reclassified from AOCI are recorded in interest expense on the statements of operations. The Company anticipates reclassifying $930 from AOCI to interest expense within the next 12 months.

During the first quarter of 2013, the Company announced a multi-year realignment plan. Certain aspects of this plan were previously disclosed under the Company's global realignment plan and global shared services plan. This multi-year realignment focuses on globalizing the Company's service organization and creating a unified center-led global organization for research and development, as well as transforming the Company's general and administrative cost structure. Restructuring charges of $928 and $4,346 for the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and $6,761 and $21,404 for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, related to the Company's multi-year realignment plan. Restructuring charges for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 primarily related to a business process outsourcing initiative. As of September 30, 2014, the Company anticipates additional restructuring costs of $4,000 to $6,000 to be incurred through the end of 2014, primarily within NA and EMEA. The Company anticipates additional cost in the multi-year realignment plan through at least 2015. As management finalizes certain aspects of the realignment plan, the anticipated future costs related to this plan are subject to change. As of September 30, 2014, cumulative total restructuring costs for the multi-year realignment plan were $64,218, $2,425, $5,534, $1,694 and $8,635 in NA, AP, EMEA, LA and Brazil, respectively.

NOTE 17: FAIR VALUE OF ASSETS AND LIABILITIES
The Company measures its financial assets and liabilities using one or more of the following three valuation techniques:
Market approach – Prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities.
Cost approach – Amount that would be required to replace the service capacity of an asset (replacement cost).
Income approach – Techniques to convert future amounts to a single present amount based upon market expectations.
The hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value is divided into three levels:
Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, unadjusted quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active or inputs, other than quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly.
Level 3 – Unobservable inputs for which there is little or no market data.
 
A financial asset or liability’s classification within the hierarchy is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.
Assets and Liabilities Recorded at Fair Value
