Classes and categories of financial instruments and their fair values

The following table combines information about:

  • Classes of financial instruments based on their nature and characteristics;
  • The carrying amounts of financial instruments;
  • Fair values of financial instruments (except financial instruments when carrying amount approximates their fair value); and
  • Fair value hierarchy levels of financial assets and financial liabilities for which fair value was disclosed.

The gain arising from the change in fair value has been included in profit or loss for the period.

Fair value of the Company's financial assets and financial liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis

Some of the Company's financial assets and financial liabilities are measured at fair value at the end of each reporting period. The following table gives information about how the fair values of these financial assets and financial liabilities are determined.

Financial asset/liability Valuation technique applied Significant unobservable inputs Range of unobservable inputs applied
Preference Share B Discounting of cash flow after taking into account credit risk of Cell C Probability of default of Cell C 10.11% – 12.35% PD range
SPV5 derivative liability Discounting of cash flow after taking into account credit risk of Cell C Probability of default of Cell C 5% – 61.94% LGD range

Sensitivity analysis of valuations using unobservable inputs

Significant unobservable parameter Positive/(negative) variance applied to parameters
Probability of default of Cell C 10/(10)%
Loss given default of Cell C 10/(10)%

 

A significant parameter has been deemed to be one which may result in a charge to profit or loss, or a change in the fair value of the asset or liability by more than 10% of the underlying value of the affected item.

This is demonstrated by the following sensitivity analysis which includes reasonable range of possible outcomes:

Financial instrument Significant unobservable parameter Potential effect on profit or loss and equity
Preference Share B Valuation of Cell C remains unchanged, Probability of default stressed by 10% 5 508 – 7 417
SPV5 derivative liability Loss given default stressed by 10% (923) – 923

Credit risk of financial instruments designated at fair value
