(b) Purchase Commitments with Contract Manufacturers and Suppliers
We purchase components from a variety of suppliers and use several contract manufacturers to provide manufacturing services for our products. During the normal course of business, in order to manage manufacturing lead times and help ensure adequate component supply, we enter into agreements with contract manufacturers and suppliers that either allow them to procure inventory based upon criteria as defined by us or establish the parameters defining our requirements. A significant portion of our reported purchase commitments arising from these agreements consists of firm, noncancelable, and unconditional commitments. Certain of these purchase commitments with contract manufacturers and suppliers relate to arrangements to secure long-term pricing for certain product components for multi-year periods. In certain instances, these agreements allow us the option to cancel, reschedule, and adjust our requirements based on our business needs prior to firm orders being placed.
The following table summarizes our purchase commitments with contract manufacturers and suppliers (in millions):
We record a liability for firm, noncancelable, and unconditional purchase commitments for quantities in excess of our future demand forecasts consistent with the valuation of our excess and obsolete inventory. As of July 27, 2019 and July 28, 2018, the liability for these purchase commitments was $129 million and $159 million, respectively, and was included in other current liabilities.

Cash Flow Hedges
The Company has interest rate swap agreements to hedge the cash flows of a portion of its variable rate senior secured term loans (the "Variable Rate Loans"). The objective of these instruments is to reduce variability in the forecasted interest payments of the Company's Variable Rate Loans, which is based on the LIBOR rate. Under the terms of the interest rate swap agreements, the Company will receive monthly variable interest payments based on the one-month LIBOR rate and will pay interest at a fixed rate.
In February 2018, the Company entered into interest rate swap agreements to hedge the cash flows of an additional $250 million of its Variable Rate Loans. The interest rate swap agreements on $1.1 billion of the Company's Variable Rate Loans had a maturity date of December 2021 and a fixed interest rate of 1.08%.
The interest rate swap agreements on $300 million and $250 million of the Company's Variable Rate Loans both had a maturity date of August 2022 and fixed interest rates of 1.66% and 2.59%, respectively. The counterparties to these agreements are financial institutions.
In September 2018, the Company terminated its existing interest rate swaps. The net derivative gain of $60 million related to the discontinued cash flow hedge remained within accumulated other comprehensive loss and is being reclassified into earnings over the remaining life of the original hedge as the hedged variable rate debt impacts earnings.
Additionally, in September 2018, the Company entered into new interest rate swap agreements to hedge the cash flows of $1.5 billion of the Company's Variable Rate Loans. These interest rate swap agreements have a maturity date of August 2025 and a fixed interest rate of 3.00%.
The interest rate swap transactions were accounted for as cash flow hedges. The gain (loss) on the swap is reported as a component of other comprehensive income (loss) and is reclassified into earnings when the interest payments on the underlying hedged items impact earnings. A qualitative assessment of hedge effectiveness is performed on a quarterly basis, unless facts and circumstances indicate the hedge may no longer be highly effective.
The effect of the Company's cash flow hedges on other comprehensive (loss) income and earnings for the periods presented was as follows:
The Company expects to reclassify gains of $1 million from accumulated other comprehensive loss into earnings during the next 12 months.

The net deferred tax assets (liabilities) are comprised of the following (in thousands):
A valuation allowance is recorded to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized based on an assessment of positive and negative evidence, including estimates of future taxable income necessary to realize future deductible amounts. A significant piece of objective negative evidence evaluated was the cumulative loss incurred over the three-year period ended December 31, 2019. Such objective evidence limits the ability to consider other subjective evidence such as its projections for future growth. On the basis of this evaluation, at December 31, 2019 and 2018, a valuation allowance of $24.6 million and $25.1 million, respectively, has been recorded.
As of December 31, 2019, the Company has accumulated federal and state net operating loss (“NOL”) carryforwards of $165.0 million and $134.3 million, respectively. Of the $165.0 million of federal NOL carryforwards, $57.9 million was generated before January 1, 2018 and is subject to the 20-year carryforward period (“pre-Tax Act losses”). The remaining $107.1 million (“post-Tax Act losses”) can be carried forward indefinitely but is subject to the 80% taxable income limitation. The pre-Tax Act U.S. federal and state net operating loss carryforwards will expire in varying amounts through 2037. The Company completed a Section 382 study for the period through March 31, 2019 and determined that a Section 382 ownership change occurred on December 31, 2017 subjecting all pre-Tax Act losses to a utilization limitation; however, such limitation is not expected to result in NOLs expiring unused. Any future annual limitation may result in the expiration of NOLs before utilization.
As of December 31, 2019 and 2018, the Company had combined foreign net operating loss carry-forwards available to reduce future taxable income of approximately $25.6 million and $25.5 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2019 and 2018, valuation allowances of $24.6 million and $25.1 million, respectively, had been recorded against the related deferred tax assets for those loss carry-forwards that are not more likely than not to be fully utilized in reducing future taxable income.

Revenue and deferred revenue
The Group adopted IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers in the current year and has therefore restated the results for the prior-year on a consistent basis, see note 2 of the Financial Statements for further details.
The Group’s revenue increased by $71.6 million, or 11.2 per cent, to $710.6 million in the year-ended 31 March 2019. Subscription revenue was notably strong in the period, with reported growth of 15.9 per cent, or 16.7 per cent on a constant currency basis, because of strong prior-period billings and incremental growth of the MSP channel in the current period.
1 Restated for the adoption of IFRS 15 as explained in note 2 of the Financial Statements
Revenue in the period of $710.6 million comprised $394.1 million from the recognition of prior-period deferred revenues and $316.5 million from in-period billings. The majority of the Group’s billings, which are recognised over the life of the contract, relate to subscription products (FY19: 84.8 per cent; FY18: 83.8 per cent), with the benefit from increased billings being spread over a number of years on the subsequent recognition of deferred revenue. The deferred revenue balance at the end of the period of $742.1 million increased $13.5 million year-on-year, an increase of 1.9 per cent. This was mainly due to a net deferral of billings amounting to $49.7 million partially offset by a net currency revaluation of $36.2 million, a consequence of the weakening of the euro and sterling against the US dollar during the year. Deferred revenue due within one year at the balance sheet date of $428.6M increased by 5.1 per cent at actual rates or by 10.7 per cent in constant currency.
Revenue in the Americas increased by $29.7 million or 13.3 per cent to $253.3 million in the year-ended 31 March 2019, supported by the recognition of prior-period Enduser billings from the Sophos Central platform and the growth of the MSP channel in the current period.
EMEA revenue increased by $39.1 million or 12.0 per cent to $363.6 million in the year-ended 31 March 2019, with growth in Enduser in particular, but also aided by Network sales.
APJ revenue increased by $2.8 million, or 3.1 per cent to $93.7 million in the year-ended 31 March 2019, with good growth in Enduser products partially offset by a decline in Network sales following the legacy product transition.

The following table summarizes the activity related to the Company's gross unrecognized tax benefits from April 1, 2016 to March 31, 2019 (amounts in millions):
As of March 31, 2019 and March 31, 2018, the Company had accrued interest and penalties related to tax contingencies of $88.1 million and $80.8 million, respectively. Interest and penalties charged to operations for the years ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 related to the Company's uncertain tax positions were $5.4 million and $5.8 million, respectively. Previously accrued interest and penalties that were released during the year ended March 31, 2019 were $37.5 million.
The total amount of gross unrecognized tax benefits was $763.4 million and $436.0 million as of March 31, 2019 and March 31, 2018, respectively, of which $664.4 million and $436.0 million is estimated to impact the Company's effective tax rate, if recognized. The Company estimates that it is reasonably possible unrecognized tax benefits as of March 31, 2019 could decrease by approximately $50.0 million in the next 12 months. Positions that may be resolved include various U.S. and non-U.S. matters.
