The Company is exposed to fluctuations in the currency exchange rates applicable to its investments in foreign operations. While the Company does not actively hedge against changes in foreign currency, the Company has mitigated the exposure arising from its investments in its European operations by denominating a portion of its Senior Notes in euros. At June 30, 2022, the Company had euro-denominated debt outstanding of $874 million (U.S. dollar equivalent), which qualifies as a hedge of a net investment in foreign operations. For non-derivatives designated and qualifying as net investment hedges, the effective portion of the translation gains or losses are reported in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) as part of the cumulative translation adjustment. The unhedged portions of the translation gains or losses are reported in the consolidated statements of operations. The following table includes net investment hedge activity during the fiscal years ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively:


(Dollars in millions)	June 30, 2022		June 30, 2021
Unrealized foreign exchange gain (loss) within Other Comprehensive Income	$	121	$	(56)
Unrealized foreign exchange loss within the Consolidated Statements of Operations	$	(11)	$	(3)

The net accumulated gain of this net investment hedge within accumulated other comprehensive loss was $127 million as of June 30, 2022. Amounts are reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive loss into earnings when the entity in which the gains and losses reside is either sold or substantially liquidated.

As discussed in Note 13, Equity, Redeemable Preferred Stock and Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss, in May 2019, the Company issued shares of Series A Preferred Stock in exchange for net proceeds of $646 million after taking into account the $4 million issuance cost.

The dividend rate used to determine the amount of the quarterly dividend payable on shares of the Series A Preferred Stock was subject to adjustment so as to provide holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock with certain protections against a decline in the trading price of shares of Common Stock. The Company determined that this feature should be accounted for as a derivative liability, since the feature fluctuates inversely to changes in the trading price and is also linked to the performance of the S&P 500 stock index. Accordingly, the Company bifurcated the adjustable dividend feature from the remainder of the Series A Preferred Stock and accounted for this feature as a derivative liability at fair value.

A portion of the derivative liability was settled on the Partial Conversion Date due to the Partial Conversion. The fair value of the derivative liability as of the Partial Conversion Date was $9 million, of which $4 million was related to the converted portion of the outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock. The remainder of the derivative liability was settled on the Final Conversion Date due to the Final Conversion. The fair value of the derivative liability as of the Final Conversion Date was $1 million. See Note 13, Equity, Redeemable Preferred Stock, and Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss for details of the Partial Conversion.

Pursuant to its interest rate and risk management strategy, in April 2020, the Company entered into an interest-rate swap agreement with Bank of America N.A. as a hedge against the economic effect of a portion of the variable interest obligation associated with its U.S dollar-denominated term loans under its senior secured credit facilities, so that the interest payable on that portion of the debt becomes fixed at a certain rate, thereby reducing the impact of future interest rate changes on future interest expense.

In February 2021, in connection with executing the Fifth Amendment, the Company settled the April 2020 interest-rate swap agreement with Bank of America N.A. The Company paid $2 million in cash to Bank of America N.A to settle the interest-rate swap agreement. This fiscal 2021 loss was deferred in shareholders’ equity as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of tax, and amortized as an adjustment to interest expense, net over the original term of the Company’s U.S dollar-denominated term loans repaid in February 2021 in connection with the Fifth Amendment.

In February 2021, the Company entered into a new interest-rate swap agreement with Bank of America N.A. as a hedge against the economic effect of a portion of the variable interest obligation associated with its Term B-3 Loans, so that the interest payable on that portion of the Term B-3 Loans becomes fixed at a certain rate, thereby reducing the impact of future

interest rate changes on future interest expense. As a result of entering into the interest-rate swap agreement, the floating portion of the applicable rate on $500 million of the Term B-3 Loans is now effectively fixed at 0.9985%.

The new interest-rate swap agreement qualifies for and is designated as a cash-flow hedge. The Company evaluates hedge effectiveness at the inception of the hedge and on an ongoing basis. The cash flows associated with the interest-rate swap are reported in net cash provided by operating activities in the consolidated statements of cash flows.
