* The reported maturity analysis is calculated on an undiscounted basis.<br />

Fair values<br />

All financial instruments are carried at fair value or amounts that approximate fair value except for the<br />

non-current interest-bearing borrowings at fixed rates of interest. The carrying amounts for cash, cash<br />

equivalents, accounts receivable, certain investments, accounts payable and current portion of interestbearing<br />

borrowings approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments. Where<br />

these fixed rates of interest have been hedged into variable rates of interest and fair value hedge<br />

accounting has been applied, then the non-current interest-bearing borrowings are carried at fair value<br />

calculated by discounting all future cash flows at market data valid at closing date. The same data is<br />

used to value the related hedging instrument.<br />
