Annual Financial Statements
B. Cash Flow Hedging
The Group enters into Cash Flow Hedging transactions in order to cover the risks that cause fluctuations in its cash
flows and arise either from an asset or a liability or a forecasted transaction.
On revaluation of open positions, the effective part of the hedging instrument is recognized directly in Equity as “Hedg-
ing Reserve” while the ineffective part is recognized in Profit & Loss. The amounts recognized in Equity are transferred
in profit and loss at the same time as the underlying.
When a hedging instrument has expired, sold, settled or does not qualify for hedging accounting all accumulated profit
or loss recognized in Equity, stays in Equity until the final settlement of the underlying. If the underlying is not expected
to be settled then any profit or loss recognized in Equity is transferred to profit and loss account.
C. Hedging of a Net Investment
Hedging of a foreign investment is regarded for accounting purposes in a way similar to cash flow hedging.
The effective part of the hedging result is recognized directly in Equity while any ineffective part is recognized in profit
and loss. Accumulated profit or loss recognized in Equity is transferred in profit and loss account at the time of disposal
of the investment.
Determination of Fair Value
The fair value of financial instruments trading in an active market is defined by the published prices as of the date of
the financial statements.
The fair value of financial instruments not traded in active market is defined through the use of valuation techniques and
assumptions based on relevant market information as of the date of the financial statements.
