Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

11. Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

In the normal course of business, DPL enters into various financial instruments, including derivative financial instruments.  We use derivatives principally to manage the risk of changes in market prices for commodities and interest rate risk associated with our long-term debt.  The derivatives that we use to economically hedge these risks are governed by our risk management policies for forward and futures contracts.  Our net positions are continually assessed within our structured hedging programs to determine whether new or offsetting transactions are required.  The objective of the hedging program is to mitigate financial risks while ensuring that we have adequate resources to meet our requirements.  We monitor and value derivative positions monthly as part of our risk management processes.  We use published sources for pricing, when possible, to mark positions to market.  All of our derivative instruments are used for risk management purposes and are designated as cash flow hedges or marked to market each reporting period.

At December 31, 2012,  DPL had the following outstanding derivative instruments:

Commodity	Accounting Treatment	Unit	Purchases (in thousands)		Sales (in thousands)		Net Purchases/ (Sales) (in thousands)
FTRs	Mark to Market	MWh		6.9		-		6.9

Cash Flow Hedges

As part of our risk management processes, we identify the relationships between hedging instruments and hedged items, as well as the risk management objective and strategy for undertaking various hedge transactions.  The fair values of cash flow hedges determined by current public market prices will continue to fluctuate with changes in market prices up to contract expiration.  The effective portion of the hedging transaction is recognized in AOCI and transferred to earnings using specific identification of each contract when the forecasted hedged transaction takes place or when the forecasted hedged transaction is probable of not occurring.  The ineffective portion of the cash flow hedge is recognized in earnings in the current period.  All risk components were taken into account to determine the hedge effectiveness of the cash flow hedges.

We enter into forward power contracts to manage commodity price risk exposure related to our generation of electricity and our sale of retail power to third parties through our subsidiary DPLER.  We do not hedge all commodity price risk.  We reclassify gains and losses on forward power contracts from AOCI into earnings in those periods in which the contracts settle.

We also enter into interest rate derivative contracts to manage interest rate exposure related to anticipated borrowings of fixed-rate debt.  Our anticipated fixed-rate debt offerings have a high probability of occurrence as the proceeds will be used to fund existing debt maturities and projected capital expenditures.  We do not hedge all interest rate exposure.  During 2011, interest rate hedging relationships with a notional amount of $200.0 million settled resulting in DPL making a cash payment of $48.1 million ($31.3 million net of tax).  As part of the Merger discussed in Note 2, DPL entered into a $425.0 million unsecured term loan agreement with a syndicated bank group on August 24, 2011, in part, to pay the approximately $297.4 million principal amount of DPL’s6.875% debt that was due in September 2011.  The remainder was drawn for other corporate purposes.  This agreement is for a three year term expiring on August 24, 2014.  See Note 7 for further information.  As a result, some of the forecasted transactions originally being hedged are probable of not occurring and therefore approximately $5.1 million ($3.3 million net of tax) has been reclassified to earnings during the period January 1, 2011 through November 27, 2011.  Because the interest rate swap had already cash settled as of the Merger date, this hedge had no future value and was not valued as a part of the purchase accounting (See Note 2 for more information).  We reclassify gains and losses on interest rate derivative hedges related to debt financings from AOCI into earnings in those periods in which hedged interest payments occur.

The following table provides information for DPL concerning gains or losses recognized in AOCI for the cash flow hedges:

Mark to Market Accounting

Certain derivative contracts are entered into on a regular basis as part of our risk management program but do not qualify for hedge accounting or the normal purchases and sales exceptions under FASC 815.  Accordingly, such contracts are recorded at fair value with changes in the fair value charged or credited to the consolidated statements of results of operations in the period in which the change occurred.  This is commonly referred to as “MTM accounting.”  Contracts we enter into as part of our risk management program may be settled financially, by physical delivery or net settled with the counterparty.  We mark to market FTRs, heating oil futures, forward NYMEX-quality coal contracts and certain forward power contracts.

Certain qualifying derivative instruments have been designated as normal purchases or normal sales contracts, as provided under GAAP.  Derivative contracts that have been designated as normal purchases or normal sales under GAAP are not subject to MTM accounting treatment and are recognized in the consolidated statements of results of operations on an accrual basis.

Regulatory Assets and Liabilities

In accordance with regulatory accounting under GAAP, a cost that is probable of recovery in future rates should be deferred as a regulatory asset and a gain that is probable of being returned to customers should be deferred as a regulatory liability.  Portions of the derivative contracts that are marked to market each reporting period and are related to the retail portion of DP&L’s load requirements are included as part of the fuel and purchased power recovery rider approved by the PUCO which began January 1, 2010.  Therefore, the Ohio retail customers’ portion of the heating oil futures and the NYMEX-quality coal contracts are deferred as a regulatory asset or liability until the contracts settle.  If these unrealized gains and losses are no longer deemed to be probable of recovery through our rates, they will be reclassified into earnings in the period such determination is made.

The following tables show the amount and classification within the consolidated statements of results of operations or balance sheets of the gains and losses on DPL’s derivatives not designated as hedging instruments for the year ended December 31, 2012, the period November 28, 2011 through December 31, 2011, the period January 1, 2011 through November 27, 2011, and the year ended December 31, 2010.

Certain of our OTC commodity derivative contracts are under master netting agreements that contain provisions that require our debt to maintain an investment grade credit rating from credit rating agencies.  Since our debt has fallen below investment grade, some of our counterparties to the derivative instruments have requested collateralization of the MTM loss. 

The aggregate fair value of DPL’s derivative instruments that are in a MTM loss position at December 31, 2012 is $13.2 million.  This amount is offset by $5.1 million of collateral posted directly with third parties and in a broker margin account which offsets our loss positions on the forward contracts.  This liability position is further offset by the asset position of counterparties with master netting agreements of $6.3 million.  Since our debt is below investment grade, we could have to post collateral for the remaining $1.8 million.

Mark to Market Accounting

Certain derivative contracts are entered into on a regular basis as part of our risk management program but do not qualify for hedge accounting or the normal purchases and sales exceptions under FASC 815.  Accordingly, such contracts are recorded at fair value with changes in the fair value charged or credited to the statements of results of operations in the period in which the change occurred.  This is commonly referred to as “MTM accounting.”  Contracts we enter into as part of our risk management program may be settled financially, by physical delivery or net settled with the counterparty.  We mark to market FTRs, heating oil futures, forward NYMEX-quality coal contracts and certain forward power contracts.

Certain qualifying derivative instruments have been designated as normal purchases or normal sales contracts, as provided under GAAP.  Derivative contracts that have been designated as normal purchases or normal sales under GAAP are not subject to MTM accounting treatment and are recognized in the statements of results of operations on an accrual basis.

Regulatory Assets and Liabilities

In accordance with regulatory accounting under GAAP, a cost that is probable of recovery in future rates should be deferred as a regulatory asset and a gain that is probable of being returned to customers should be deferred as a regulatory liability.  Portions of the derivative contracts that are marked to market each reporting period and are related to the retail portion of DP&L’s load requirements are included as part of the fuel and purchased power recovery rider approved by the PUCO which began January 1, 2010.  Therefore, the Ohio retail customers’ portion of the heating oil futures and the NYMEX-quality coal contracts are deferred as a regulatory asset or liability until the contracts settle.  If these unrealized gains and losses are no longer deemed to be probable of recovery through our rates, they will be reclassified into earnings in the period such determination is made.

The following tables show the amount and classification within the statements of results of operations or balance sheets of the gains and losses on DP&L’s derivatives not designated as hedging instruments for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011.

Certain of our OTC commodity derivative contracts are under master netting agreements that contain provisions that require our debt to maintain an investment grade credit rating from credit rating agencies.  If our debt were to fall below investment grade, we would be in violation of these provisions, and the counterparties to the derivative instruments could request immediate payment or demand immediate and ongoing full overnight collateralization of the MTM loss.  The changes in our credit ratings in November 2012 have triggered the provisions discussed above with some of our counterparties.  Since our debt has fallen below investment grade, some of our counterparties to the derivative instruments have requested collateralization of the MTM loss. 

The aggregate fair value of DP&L’s derivative instruments that are in a MTM loss position at December 31, 2012 is $11.7 million.  This amount is offset by $3.6 million in a broker margin account and with other counterparties which offsets our loss positions on the forward contracts.  This liability position is further offset by the asset position of counterparties with master netting agreements of $6.4 million.  If DP&L debt were to fall below investment grade, DP&L could be required to post collateral for the remaining $1.7 million.
