Derivatives and Hedge Accounting Activities

Note 9. Derivatives and Hedge Accounting Activities

The Companies’ accounting policies, objectives and strategies for using derivative instruments are discussed in Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Companies’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. See Note 8 in this report for further information about fair value measurements and associated valuation methods for derivatives.

Derivative assets and liabilities are presented gross on the Companies’ Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Companies’ derivative contracts include both over-the-counter transactions and those that are executed on an exchange or other trading platform (exchange contracts) and centrally cleared. Over-the-counter contracts are bilateral contracts that are transacted directly with a third party. Exchange contracts utilize a financial intermediary, exchange, or clearinghouse to enter, execute or clear the transactions. Certain over-the-counter and exchange contracts contain contractual rights of setoff through master netting arrangements, derivative clearing agreements and contract default provisions. In addition, the contracts are subject to conditional rights of setoff through counterparty nonperformance, insolvency or other conditions.

In general, most over-the-counter transactions and all exchange contracts are subject to collateral requirements. Types of collateral for over-the-counter and exchange contracts include cash, letters of credit, and in some cases other forms of securities, none of which are subject to restrictions. Cash collateral, as presented in the table below, is used to offset derivative assets and liabilities. Certain accounts receivable and accounts payable recognized on the Companies’ Consolidated Balance Sheets, letters of credit and other forms of securities, as well as certain long-term debt, all of which are not included in the tables below, are subject to offset under master netting or similar arrangements and would reduce the net exposure. See Note 18 for further information regarding credit-related contingent features for the Companies’ derivative instruments.

Volumes

The following table presents the volume of Dominion Energy’s derivative activity at June 30, 2021. These volumes are based on open derivative positions and represent the combined absolute value of their long and short positions, except in the case of offsetting transactions, for which they represent the absolute value of the net volume of its long and short positions.

	Current		Noncurrent
Natural Gas (bcf):

(2)	Maturity is determined based on final settlement period.

AOCI

The following table presents selected information related to losses on cash flow hedges included in AOCI in Dominion Energy’s Consolidated Balance Sheet at June 30, 2021:

	AOCI After-Tax			Amounts Expected to be Reclassified to Earnings During the Next 12 Months After-Tax			Maximum Term
(millions)
Interest rate	$	(371	)	$	(43	)	390 months
Total	$	(371	)	$	(43	)

The amounts that will be reclassified from AOCI to earnings will generally be offset by the recognition of the hedged transactions (e.g., interest rate payments) in earnings, thereby achieving the realization of prices contemplated by the underlying risk management strategies and will vary from the expected amounts presented above as a result of changes in interest rates.

Fair Value Hedges

For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as a fair value hedge, the gain or loss on the derivative instrument as well as the offsetting loss or gain on the hedged item attributable to the hedged risk are recognized in current earnings and presented in the same line item. There were no derivative instruments designated as fair value hedges during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020.

The following table presents the amounts recorded on the balance sheet related to cumulative basis adjustments for fair value hedges:

	Carrying Amount of the Hedged Asset (Liability)⁽¹⁾						Cumulative Amount of Fair Value Hedging Adjustments Included in the Carrying Amount of the Hedged Assets (Liabilities)⁽²⁾
