JSC “INTER RAO UES” for the year 2012<br />
Futures used for Hedging Purposes<br />
The Company uses futures as a price risk hedging instrument at the DAM (Day-Ahead Market).<br />
Unfavourable changes in electricity prices at the DAM may reduce the profit margin relative to a<br />
margin profit indicator, approved in the Company's business plan. The purpose of entering into<br />
hedging futures is the reduction in price risk at the DAM and the achievement of profit margin<br />
indicator, approved in the Company's business plan.<br />
As of December 31, 2012, the Company reflects on the off-balance-sheeet items open long futures<br />
positions on futures in order to hedge the risk of increase in the electricity prices at the Day-Ahead<br />
Market at market valuation of 61,847 thousand rubles.<br />
For the purposes of assessing the hedging efficiency with the use of these instruments, the Company<br />
uses the retrospective and prospective analyzes using a hypothetical derivative method. According to<br />
the said method it is defined how the actual change in the fair value of net cash flows of hypothetical<br />
derivative is compensated with the actual change in the fair value of net cash flows of hedging<br />
instruments.<br />
Based on the retrospective and prospective hedging efficiency analysis as of December 31, 2012, the<br />
hedging of obligations on purchase of electricity in a free sector of Wholesale Electricity and Power<br />
Market (WEPM) for ensuring the electricity supplies for export at the price prevailing in the market for<br />
each hour (date) during the period of supply with the help of transactions with futures contracts on the<br />
average price index can be considered efficient, since at the time of decision on hedging, a prospective<br />
analysis of its efficiency has been positive.<br />
