Risk Management, Derivative Instruments And Hedging Activities

8. RISK MANAGEMENT, DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES

The Duke Energy Registrants closely monitor risks associated with commodity price and interest rates changes on their operations. The Duke Energy Registrants use various commodity and interest rate instruments to manage these risks. Certain of these derivative instruments qualify for hedge accounting and are designated as hedging instruments. Other instruments either do not qualify for hedge accounting or have not been designated as hedges (hereinafter referred to as undesignated contracts). The Duke Energy Registrants' primary use of energy commodity derivatives is to hedge their generation portfolio against exposure to changes in the prices of electricity and fuel. Interest rate swaps are entered into to manage interest rate risk primarily associated with the Duke Energy Registrants' borrowings. Additionally, Duke Energy Carolinas', Duke Energy Progress' and Duke Energy Florida's nuclear decommissioning trust fund (NDTF) investment holdings may include certain derivative instruments, such as interest rate swaps and credit default swaps, as part of their overall investment strategies. The fair value of these derivative instruments are included within Nuclear decommissioning trust funds on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and are not material to the investment balances at September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012. The remaining disclosures in this footnote do not reflect any derivatives included in the NDTFs as they are not material to the information presented.

Accounting guidance requires the recognition of all derivative instruments not identified as NPNS as either assets or liabilities at fair value in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. For derivative instruments that qualify for hedge accounting, the Duke Energy Registrants may elect to designate such derivatives as either cash flow hedges or fair value hedges. The Duke Energy Registrants offset fair value amounts recognized on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets related to derivative instruments executed with the same counterparty under the same master netting agreement.

Within the Duke Energy Registrants' regulated businesses, gains and losses on all derivative contracts are reflected as regulatory liabilities or assets and not as a component of AOCI or current period income. As a result, changes in fair value of these derivatives have no immediate earnings impact.

Within the Duke Energy Registrants' unregulated businesses, for derivative instruments that qualify for hedge accounting and are designated as cash flow hedges, the effective portion of gains or losses are reported as a component of AOCI. Amounts are subsequently reclassified from AOCI to earnings in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. Any gains or losses on the derivative that represent either hedge ineffectiveness or hedge components excluded from the assessment of effectiveness are recognized in current earnings. For derivative instruments that qualify and are designated as fair value hedges, gains or losses on the derivative and the fully or partially offsetting losses or gains on the hedged item are recognized in earnings in the current period. The Duke Energy Registrants include gains or losses on the derivative in the same line item as offsetting losses or gains on the hedged item in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Additionally, the Duke Energy Registrants enter into derivative agreements that are economic hedges that either do not qualify for hedge accounting or have not been designated as hedges. The changes in fair value of these undesignated derivative instruments are reflected in current earnings.

COMMODITY PRICE RISK

The Duke Energy Registrants are exposed to the impact of changes in future prices of electricity (energy, capacity, and financial transmission rights), coal, and natural gas as a result of their operations. With respect to commodity price risks associated with electricity generation, the Duke Energy Registrants are exposed to changes including, but not limited to, the cost of the coal and natural gas used to generate electricity, the price of electricity sold in wholesale markets, and the cost of energy, capacity and financial transmission rights purchased for resale in wholesale markets. Exposure to commodity price risk is influenced by a number of factors, including, but not limited to, the term of contracts, the liquidity of markets, and delivery locations.

Commodity Fair Value Hedges

At September 30, 2013, no open commodity derivative instruments were designated as fair value hedges.

Commodity Cash Flow Hedges

At September 30, 2013, no material open commodity derivative instruments were designated as cash flow hedges.

Undesignated Contracts

The Duke Energy Registrants use derivative contracts as economic hedges to manage market risk exposures that arise from providing electricity generation and capacity to large energy customers, energy aggregators, retail customers, and other wholesale companies. Undesignated contracts may include contracts not designated as a hedge, contracts that do not qualify for hedge accounting, derivatives that do not or no longer qualify for the NPNS scope exception, and de-designated hedge contracts. These contracts expire as late as 2017.

Undesignated contracts also include contracts associated with operations that Duke Energy continues to wind down or has included as discontinued operations. As these undesignated contracts expire as late as 2021, Duke Energy has entered into economic hedges that leave it minimally exposed to price changes over the duration of these contracts.

Duke Energy Carolinas and Duke Energy Progress use derivative contracts as economic hedges to manage market risk exposures that arise from electricity generation. Duke Energy Carolinas and Duke Energy Progress have also entered into firm power sale agreements, which are accounted for as derivative instruments, as part of the Interim FERC Mitigation in connection with Duke Energy's merger with Progress Energy. Duke Energy Carolinas' undesignated contracts as of September 30, 2013, are primarily associated with forward sales and purchases of electricity.

Duke Energy Florida uses derivative contracts primarily as economic hedges to manage market risk exposures that arise from electricity generation. Undesignated contracts at September 30, 2013, are primarily associated with forward purchases of natural gas.

Duke Energy Ohio uses derivative contracts as economic hedges to manage market risk exposures that arise from providing electricity generation and capacity to large energy customers, energy aggregators, retail customers, and other wholesale companies. Undesignated contracts at September 30, 2013, are primarily associated with forward sales and purchases of power, coal, and natural gas.

Duke Energy Indiana uses derivative contracts as economic hedges to manage market risk exposures that arise from electricity generation. Undesignated contracts at September 30, 2013, are primarily associated with forward purchases and sales of power and financial transmission rights.

Volumes

The tables below show information relating to the volume of the Duke Energy Registrants outstanding commodity derivative contracts. Amounts disclosed represent the notional volumes of commodity contracts accounted for at fair value. For option contracts, notional amounts which represent the notional volumes times the probability of exercising the option based on current price volatility. Volumes associated with contracts qualifying for and designated as NPNS have been excluded from the table below. Amounts disclosed represent the absolute value of notional amounts. The Duke Energy Registrants have netted contractual amounts where offsetting purchase and sale contracts exist with identical delivery locations and times of delivery. Where all commodity positions are perfectly offset, no quantities are shown.

INTEREST RATE RISK

The Duke Energy Registrants are exposed to changes in interest rates as a result of their issuance or anticipated issuance of variable-rate and fixed-rate debt and commercial paper. Interest rate exposure is managed by limiting variable-rate instruments to a percentage of total debt and by monitoring changes in interest rates. To manage risk associated with changes in interest rates, the Duke Energy Registrants may enter into interest rate swaps, U.S. Treasury lock agreements, and other financial contracts. In anticipation of certain fixed-rate debt issuances, a series of forward starting interest rate swaps may be executed to lock in components of current market interest rates. These instruments are later terminated prior to or upon the issuance of the corresponding debt. When these transactions occur within a business that meets the criteria for regulatory accounting treatment, these contracts may be treated as undesignated and any pretax gain or loss recognized from inception to termination of the hedges would be recorded as a regulatory liability or asset and amortized as a component of interest expense over the life of the debt. In businesses that don't meet the criteria for regulatory accounting treatment, these derivatives may be designated as hedges whereby any pretax gain or loss recognized from inception to termination of the hedges would be recorded in AOCI and amortized as a component of interest expense over the life of the debt.

Duke Energy has a combination foreign exchange, pay fixed-receive floating interest rate swap to fix the US Dollar equivalent payments on a floating rate Chilean debt issue.

The following tables show notional amounts for derivatives related to interest rate risk.

The tables below show the balance sheet location of derivative contracts subject to enforceable master netting agreements and include collateral posted to offset the net position. This disclosure is intended to enable users to evaluate the effect of netting arrangements on Duke Energy's financial position. The amounts shown were calculated by counterparty.

Most derivatives are entered into with counterparties under enforceable master netting agreements, or with an Independent System Operator (ISO) such as MISO or PJM. Derivatives entered into with a clearinghouse are usually over-collateralized due to the requirement to post initial margin upon entering into contracts. The amounts shown as offset are limited by the amount of exposure to a counterparty such that an over collateralized position at one counterparty is not allowed to reduce an under collateralized position at another counterparty. Duke Energy may also have available accounts receivable or accounts payable that are subject to master netting agreements that would offset exposures in the event of bankruptcy. These amount are not included in the table below.

At September 30, 2013 and 2012, $60 million and $71 million, respectively, of pretax deferred net losses on derivative instruments related to interest rate cash flow hedges were included as a component of AOCI. A $5 million pretax loss is expected to be recognized in earnings during the next 12 months as the hedged transactions occur. Effective with the Duke Energy merger, Progress Energy no longer designates interest rate contracts for regulated operations as cash flow hedges. As a result, pretax losses on open derivative contracts as of the date of the merger were reclassified from AOCI to Regulatory assets.

The amounts of pretax gains and losses recognized on undesignated contracts by type of derivative instrument, and the line items in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income in which such gains and losses were included or deferred on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as regulatory assets or liabilities were as follows.

The tables below show the balance sheet location of derivative contracts subject to enforceable master netting agreements and include collateral posted to offset the net position. This disclosure is intended to enable users to evaluate the effect of netting arrangements on Duke Energy Progress' financial position. The amounts shown were calculated by counterparty.

Most derivatives are entered into with counterparties under enforceable master netting agreements. Derivatives entered into with a clearinghouse are usually over-collateralized due to the requirement to post initial margin upon entering into contracts. The amounts shown as offset are limited by the amount of exposure to a counterparty such that an over collateralized position at one counterparty is not allowed to reduce an under collateralized position at another counterparty. Duke Energy Progress may also have available accounts receivable or accounts payable to offset exposures in the events of bankruptcy. These amounts are not included in the tables below.
