Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]  
DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
From time to time, the Company may use derivatives to partially offset its business exposure to foreign currency risks on expected future cash flows. The Company enters into master netting arrangements to mitigate credit risk in derivative transactions by permitting net settlement of transactions with the same counterparty. The Company does not offset fair value amounts recognized for derivative instruments under master netting arrangements. The derivative agreements do not contain credit-risk-related contingent features. There are no amounts of related financial collateral received or pledged. The Company does not use any of its derivative instruments for speculative or trading purposes.
Cash Flow Hedges
The Company may use foreign exchange options or forward contracts to hedge a portion of its forecasted foreign currency denominated transactions. To receive hedge accounting treatment, all hedging relationships are formally documented at the inception of the hedge, and the hedges must be highly effective in offsetting changes to future cash flows on hedged transactions.
These foreign exchange hedge contracts, carried at fair value, have maturities of up to approximately 12 months. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, total notional amounts of outstanding cash flow hedges were $148.8 million and $254.7 million, respectively. As of June 30, 2024, the estimated net amount of losses expected to be reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income into earnings within the next 12 months is $2.6 million. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, there were no net gains or losses recognized in earnings relating to hedges of forecasted transactions that did not occur.
The Company’s derivative assets and liabilities measured at fair value are classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of the Company’s derivatives is based on valuation methods which project future cash flows and discount the future amounts to present value using market-based observable inputs, including interest rate curves and foreign currency rates. The fair value of derivative instruments on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 were as follows, presented on a gross basis (in thousands):
