The cash flow hedge transaction arose in 2021. TPC entered into a ZAR denominated floating rate debt instrument and was exposed to variability in interest payments as a result of interest rate fluctuations. To hedge this interest rate risk, TPC took out a pay-fixed, receive-floating interest rate swap instrument. The type of hedging relationship is a cash flow hedge. The interest-rate swap instrument matured on 9 October 2023. The company does not have any interest-rate swap agreements in place as at 31 May 2024.
