Item 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

MARKET RISKS

We are exposed to market risks arising from adverse changes in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. In the normal course of business, we use a variety of techniques and derivative financial instruments as part of our overall risk management strategy, which is primarily focused on our exposure in relation to the Chinese Renminbi, Euro, Swiss Franc, Japanese Yen, Singapore Dollar, Korean Won and Malaysian Ringgit. No significant changes have occurred in the techniques and instruments used.

Interest Rate Risk

As of June 30, 2023, our total borrowings include variable rate borrowings, which expose us to changes in interest rates. In November 2019, we entered into an interest rate swap contract to limit the exposure of our variable interest rate debt by effectively converting a portion of interest payments to fixed interest rate debt. On March 20, 2023, we amended the swap contract. If we had not effectively hedged our variable rate debt, a change in the interest rate of 100 basis points on these variable rate borrowings would have resulted in additional interest expense of $47 million for the year ended June 30, 2023.

On February 23, 2022, we entered into an interest rate cap (the “Cap”, with an effective date of July 1, 2023. On March 20, 2023, we amended the Cap contract. As the Cap is not effective until July 2023, there is no impact on variable rate borrowings from the Cap for the year ended June 30, 2023.
