Refer to Note 14 in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the 2019 Form 10-K for further details regarding the Company's financial instruments and hedging policies.

As of September 26, 2020, the notional value of commodity swap contracts outstanding was $5.2 million, with the contracts maturing through 2021. The Company had no outstanding commodity swap contracts at December 31, 2019 and September 28, 2019. The amount of
gain or loss associated with the change in fair value of these instruments is deferred in Accumulated other comprehensive loss and recognized in Cost of sales in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. As of September 26, 2020, the Company estimates that during the next 12 months it will reclassify nominal net losses (based on current prices) from Accumulated other comprehensive loss to Cost of sales.

Forward exchange contracts outstanding at September 26, 2020, December 31, 2019 and September 28, 2019 had notional contract values of $293.3 million, $332.5 million and $309.8 million, respectively. The notional contract values of option contracts outstanding totaled $10.4 million at September 26, 2020 and $17.8 million as of December 31, 2019 and September 28, 2019, respectively. The forward contracts outstanding at September 26, 2020 mature through 2022 and mainly relate to the Euro, Australian dollar, Canadian dollar and Japanese yen. As of September 26, 2020, the Company estimates that during the next 12 months, it will reclassify approximately $1.5 million of net losses (based on current rates) from Accumulated other comprehensive loss to Cost of sales.

Interest Rate Derivatives. The Company previously entered into fixed-to-floating interest rate swaps to convert a portion of its long-term debt from fixed to floating rate debt. In the second half of 2019, the Company settled its fixed-to-floating interest rate swaps, resulting in a net deferred gain of $2.5 million included within Debt. The Company will reclassify $0.7 million of net deferred gains from Debt to Interest expense during the next 12 months. As a result of the settlement, there are no outstanding interest rate swaps as of September 26, 2020 or December 31, 2019. As of September 28, 2019, the outstanding swaps had a total notional contract value of $50.0 million corresponding to the Company's 7.375 percent Debentures due 2023. These instruments have been designated as fair value hedges, with the fair value recorded in long-term debt.

As of September 26, 2020, December 31, 2019 and September 28, 2019, the Company had $1.5 million, $2.0 million and $2.1 million, respectively, of net deferred losses associated with all settled forward-starting interest rate swaps, which were designated as cash flow hedges with gains and losses included in Accumulated other comprehensive loss. As of September 26, 2020, the Company estimates that during the next 12 months, it will reclassify $0.6 million net losses resulting from settled forward-starting interest rate swaps from Accumulated other comprehensive loss to Interest expense.
