There has been no significant change in the company’s exposure to market risk during the second quarter of 2026. Refer to Part II, Item 7A: Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk in the company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 3, 2026, for further discussion.
Interest Rate Risk Management
Snap-on may manage the exposure created by the differing maturities and interest rate structures of Snap-on’s borrowings through the use of interest rate swap agreements. Treasury lock agreements may be used to manage the potential change in interest rates in anticipation of the issuance of fixed rate debt. See Note 9 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on interest rate risk management.
Snap-on utilizes a Value-at-Risk (“VAR”) model to determine the potential one-day loss in the fair value of its interest rate and foreign exchange-sensitive financial instruments from adverse changes in market factors. The VAR model estimates were made assuming normal market conditions and a 95% confidence level. Snap-on’s computations are based on the inter-relationships among movements in various currencies and interest rates (variance/co-variance technique). These inter-relationships were determined by observing interest rate and foreign currency market changes over the preceding quarter.
As of July 4, 2026, the estimated maximum potential net one-day loss in fair value, calculated using the VAR model was $6.9 million, consisting of a $6.5 million loss on interest rate-sensitive financial instruments and a $0.4 million loss on foreign currency-sensitive financial instruments. The VAR model is a risk management tool and does not purport to represent actual losses in fair value that will be incurred by Snap-on, nor does it consider the potential effect of favorable changes in market factors.
