46 JOHNSON & JOHNSON 2011 ANNUAL REPORT
For the fiscal years ended January 1, 2012 and January 2, 2011, a loss
of $23 million and $31 million, respectively, was recognized in Other
(income) expense, net, relating to foreign exchange contracts not
designated as hedging instruments.
In addition, during the fiscal second quarter of 2011, the
Company entered into an option to hedge the currency risk associ-
ated with the cash portion of the payment for the planned acquisi-
tion of Synthes, Inc. The option was not designated as a hedge, and
therefore, changes in the fair value of the option are recognized in
Other (income) expense, net. During the fiscal year ended January 1,
2012, the mark to market adjustment to reduce the value of the cur-
rency option was $450 million which expired in January 2012. The
cost basis of the option was $467 million.
During the fiscal fourth quarter of 2011, the Company reclassi-
fied foreign currency bond mark to market adjustments from foreign
currency translation to gain/(loss) on derivatives and hedges. There
was no net impact within other comprehensive income as a result
of this reclassification.
Fair value is the exit price that would be received to sell an
asset or paid to transfer a liability. Fair value is a market-based
measurement that should be determined using assumptions that
market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.
The authoritative literature establishes a three-level hierarchy to
prioritize the inputs used in measuring fair value. The levels within
the hierarchy are described below with Level 1 having the highest
priority and Level 3 having the lowest.
The fair value of a derivative financial instrument (i.e. forward
exchange contract, currency swap) is the aggregation by currency of
all future cash flows discounted to its present value at the prevailing
market interest rates and subsequently converted to the U.S. Dollar
at the current spot foreign exchange rate. The Company does not
believe that fair values of these derivative instruments materially
differ from the amounts that could be realized upon settlement or
maturity, or that the changes in fair value will have a material effect
on the Company’s results of operations, cash flows or financial posi-
tion. The Company also holds equity investments that are classified
as Level 1 as they are traded in an active exchange market.
The following three levels of inputs are used to measure
fair value:
Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets
and liabilities.
Level 2 — Significant other observable inputs.
Level 3 — Significant unobservable inputs.
The Company’s significant financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value as of January 1, 2012 and January 2, 2011 were as follows:
