Hedging of financial risks
Sasol has a board-approved policy with respect to hedging of
financial risks, which allows the company to mitigate specific
risks and provide protection against unforeseen movements in
interest rates, currency movements, commodity and final
product prices.
During the course of the 2017 financial year, Sasol has entered
into a number of hedges to mitigate specific financial risks.
In particular, we have entered into hedges against the downside
risk in the crude oil price to increase the stability and
predictability of our cash flows.
Sasol has entered into oil put options, for the second quarter
of the financial year ending 30 June 2017 (October 2016 to
December 2016), which provide the Company with an average Brent
crude oil price floor of US$48,68 per barrel (net of costs) for
approximately 7,6 million barrels. Sasol has also entered into
put options for quarter three and a part of quarter four of
financial year 2017 which provide the Company with an average
Brent crude oil price floor of US$47,06 per barrel
(net of costs) for approximately 16,8 million barrels.
We are currently reviewing other commodity and currency hedges
and should we enter into material hedges, an appropriate
announcement will be made.
