Derivatives: The Corporation utilizes derivative instruments for both risk management and trading activities. In risk management activities, the Corporation uses futures, forwards, options and swaps, individually or in combination, to mitigate its exposure to fluctuations in prices of crude oil, natural gas, refined products and electricity, as well as changes in interest and foreign currency exchange rates. In trading activities, the Corporation, principally through a consolidated partnership, trades energy commodities derivatives, including futures, forwards, options and swaps based on expectations of future market conditions.
All derivative instruments are recorded at fair value in the Corporation’s balance sheet. The Corporation’s policy for recognizing the changes in fair value of derivatives varies based on the designation of the derivative. The changes in fair value of derivatives that are not designated as hedges are recognized currently in earnings.
Derivatives may be designated as hedges of expected future cash flows or forecasted transactions (cash flow hedges) or hedges of firm commitments (fair value hedges). The effective portion of changes in fair value of derivatives that are designated as cash flow hedges is recorded as a component of other comprehensive income (loss). Amounts included in Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) for cash flow hedges are reclassified into earnings in the same period that the hedged item is recognized in earnings. The ineffective portion of changes in fair value of derivatives designated as cash flow hedges is recorded currently in earnings. Changes in fair value of derivatives designated as fair value hedges are recognized currently in earnings. The change in fair value of the related hedged commitment is recorded as an adjustment to its carrying amount and recognized currently in earnings.
Translation - Italian
Derivati: Il Gruppo utilizza gli strumenti derivati sia per le attività di gestione del rischio sia per le attività di trading. Nelle attività di gestione del rischio, il Gruppo utilizza future, contratti a termine, opzioni e contratti swap, individualmente o in combinazione, per attenuare l’esposizione alle fluttuazioni dei prezzi del petrolio greggio, del gas naturale, dei prodotti raffinati e dell’energia elettrica, nonché alle variazioni dei tassi di interesse e dei tassi di cambio in valuta estera. Nelle attività di trading, il Gruppo, principalmente attraverso una partnership consolidata, commercializza i derivati su materie prime energetiche, inclusi future, contratti a termine, opzioni e contratti swap sulla base delle previsioni delle future condizioni del mercato.
Tutti gli strumenti derivati sono registrati al fair value nello stato patrimoniale del Gruppo. La politica del Gruppo per la rilevazione delle variazioni del fair value dei derivati varia sulla base della denominazione dei derivati. Le variazioni del fair value dei derivati che non sono denominati come operazioni di copertura sono rilevate negli utili attuali.
I derivati potrebbero essere denominati come operazioni di copertura dei previsti flussi di cassa futuri, come operazioni previste (operazioni di copertura dei flussi di cassa) o come operazioni di copertura degli impegni dell’azienda (operazioni di copertura del fair value). La quota effettiva delle variazioni del fair value dei derivati denominati come operazioni di copertura dei flussi di cassa è registrata come una componente del patrimonio netto (perdita). Il valore compreso nel patrimonio netto (perdita) per le operazioni di copertura dei flussi di cassa è riclassificato negli utili nello stesso esercizio nel quale la voce coperta è rilevata negli utili. La quota non effettiva delle variazioni del fair value dei derivati denominati come operazioni di copertura dei flussi di cassa è registrata negli utili attuali. Le variazioni del fair value dei derivati denominati come operazioni di copertura del fair value sono rilevate negli utili attuali. La variazione del fair value del connesso impegno coperto è registrata come rettifica al suo valore contabile ed è rilevata negli utili attuali.
