There were no derivatives outstanding at the balance sheet date that were designated as fair value hedges.<br />
Hedge of net investment in foreign entity<br />
The company has US dollar denominated borrowings which it has designated as a hedge of the net investment of its subsidiaries which have<br />
US dollars as their functional currency. The change in fair value of these hedges resulted in a decreased liability of £1,888,000 (2011: increase in<br />
liability of £914,000) which has been deferred in reserves where it is offset by the translation of the related investment and will only be recognised<br />
in the company’s profit and loss account if the related investment is sold. There are no differences in these hedges charged to the profit and loss<br />
account in the current and prior year.<br />
Fair values of non-derivative financial assets and financial liabilities<br />
Where market values are not available, fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities have been calculated by discounting expected future cash<br />
flows at prevailing interest rates and by applying year end exchange rates. The carrying amounts of short-term borrowings approximate the book value.<br />
