Fair value hierarchy of financial assets and liabilities

Accounting principles Financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value have been categorised as follows: Level 1 Fair value is based on quoted prices in active markets. Level 2 Fair value is determined by using valuation techniques that use observable price information from market. Level 3 Fair value are not based on observa-ble market data, but on company’s own assumptions.

The fair values of electricity, natural gas and fuel oil derivatives are determined by using public price quotations in an active market (Level 1). The fair values of currency forwards and options are determined by using the market prices of the closing date of the reporting period. The fair values of interest rate swaps are determined by using the present value of expected payments, discounted using a risk adjusted discount rate, supported by market interest rates and other market data of the closing date of the reporting period (Level 2). For financial instruments not traded on an active market, the fair value is determined by valuation techniques. Judgment is used when choosing the different techniques and making assumptions, which are mainly based on circumstances prevailing in the markets on each closing date of the reporting period (Level 3).

The fair value measurement of financial assets at fair value recognised under other items of comprehensive income is described in Note 4.3.
