| DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES |
DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES The Company is exposed to global market risks, including risks from changes in FX rates and changes in interest rates. Accordingly, the Company uses derivatives in certain instances to manage financial exposures that occur in the normal course of business. The Company does not hold or issue derivatives for speculative purposes. Derivatives and non-derivative instruments designated as accounting hedges: Fair Value Hedges Interest Rate Swaps The Company has entered into interest rate swaps to convert the fixed interest rate on certain of its long-term debt to a floating interest rate based on the SOFR. The purpose of these hedges is to mitigate the risk associated with changes in the fair value of the long-term debt, thus the Company has designated these swaps as fair value hedges. The fair value of the swaps is adjusted quarterly with a corresponding adjustment to the carrying value of the debt. The changes in the fair value of the swaps and the underlying hedged item generally offset and the net cash settlements on the swaps are recorded each period within interest expense, net in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. The following table summarizes the Company’s interest rate swaps designated as fair value hedges: | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Notional Amount | | | | Hedged Item | | Nature of Swap | | As of June 30, 2026 | | As of December 31, 2025 | | Floating Interest Rate | | 2014 Senior Notes due 2044 | | Pay Floating/Receive Fixed | | $ | 300 | | | $ | 300 | | | SOFR | | 2017 Senior Notes due 2028 | | Pay Floating/Receive Fixed | | — | | | 500 | | | SOFR | | 2018 Senior Notes due 2029 | | Pay Floating/Receive Fixed | | 400 | | | 400 | | | SOFR | | 2018 Senior Notes due 2048 | | Pay Floating/Receive Fixed | | 300 | | | 300 | | | SOFR | | | | | | | | | | | 2022 Senior Notes due 2052 | | Pay Floating/Receive Fixed | | 500 | | | 500 | | | SOFR | | 2022 Senior Notes due 2032 | | Pay Floating/Receive Fixed | | 250 | | | 250 | | | SOFR | | Total | | | | $ | 1,750 | | | $ | 2,250 | | | |

Net investment hedges Debt designated as net investment hedges The Company has designated €500 million of the 2015 Senior Notes due 2027 and €750 million of the 2019 Senior Notes due 2030 as net investment hedges to mitigate FX exposure related to a portion of the Company’s euro net investment in certain foreign subsidiaries against changes in euro/USD exchange rates. These hedges are designated as accounting hedges under the applicable sections of ASC Topic 815 and will end upon the repayment of the notes in 2027 and 2030, respectively, unless terminated early at the discretion of the Company. Cross currency swaps designated as net investment hedges The Company enters into cross-currency swaps to mitigate FX exposure related to a portion of the Company’s net investment in certain foreign subsidiaries against changes in exchange rates.

Derivatives not designated as accounting hedges: Foreign exchange forwards The Company also enters into foreign exchange forward contracts to mitigate the change in fair value on certain assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than a subsidiary’s functional currency. These forward contracts are not designated as accounting hedges under the applicable sections of ASC Topic 815. Accordingly, changes in the fair value of these contracts are recognized immediately in other non-operating income, net, in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations along with the FX gain or loss recognized on the assets and liabilities denominated in a currency other than the subsidiary’s functional currency. These contracts have expiration dates at various times through December 2026.

Total Return Swaps The Company has entered into total return swaps to mitigate market-driven changes in the value of certain liabilities associated with the Company's deferred compensation plans. The fair value of these swaps at June 30, 2026 and related gains in the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 were not material. The notional amount of the total return swaps as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 was $74 million and $72 million, respectively.
