Derivatives in Cash Flow Hedging Relationships
The before-tax net gains or losses, attributed to the effective portion of cash flow hedges, recognized in other comprehensive income (loss), were $83 million net gains in the third quarter of 2017 and $528 million net gains in the first nine months of 2017 ($92 million net gains in the third quarter of 2016 and $374 million net gains in the first nine months of 2016). Substantially all of our cash flow hedges are foreign currency contracts for the first nine months of 2017 and 2016.
During the first nine months of 2017 and 2016, hedge ineffectiveness and amounts excluded from effectiveness testing were insignificant.
For information on the unrealized holding gains (losses) on derivatives reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income into the consolidated condensed statements of income, see "Note 15: Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)."
