4. Financial risk management objectives and policies
The Company’s principal financial liabilities comprise loans and borrowings, trade and other payables. The main purpose of these financial liabilities is to finance the Company’s operations and to support its operations. The Company’s financial assets include loans, trade and other receivables, and cash & cash equivalents that derive directly from its operations.
The Company is exposed to market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. The company’s senior management oversees the management of these risks. The company’s senior management is supported by a Business Risk Management committee that advises on financial risks and the appropriate financial risk governance framework for the Company. This Business Risk Management committee provides assurance to the Company’s senior management that the Company’s financial risk activities are governed by appropriate policies and procedure and that financial risks are identified, measured and managed in accordance with the Company’s policies and risk objectives. The Board of Directors reviews and agrees policies for managing each risk, which are summarized as below:
Market Risk :-
a) Price Risk
Fluctuation in commodity price in global market affects directly and Indirectly the price of raw material and components used by the Company in its products. The key raw material for the Company’s business is Acrylonitrile.
b) Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Company’s exposure to the risk of changes in market interest relates primarily to the Company’s long term debt obligations with floating interest rates. The Company is carrying its borrowings primarily at variable rate.
c) Interest rate Sensitivity
For the Purpose of computing interest rate sensitivity on the above borrowings, management has estimated a reasonably possible change in interest rate as 50bps based on current as well as expected economic conditions. This analysis is based on Long Term Risk exposures outstanding at the reporting date and assumes that all other variables, in particular foreign currency exchange rates, remains constant. The period and balances are not necessarily representative of the average amounts outstanding during the period.
Mark to Market Losses (Gain) 13.83
e) Credit risk
The credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations towards the Company and arises principally from the Company’s receivables from customers and deposits with banking institutions. The maximum amount of the credit exposure is equal to the carrying amounts of these receivables. The Company has developed guidelines for the management of credit risk from trade receivables.
f) Liquidity risk
The liquidity risk encompasses any risk that the Company cannot fully meet its financial obligations. To manage the liquidity risk, cash flow forecasting is performed in the operating divisions of the Company and aggregated by Company finance. The Company’s finance monitors rolling forecasts of the Company’s liquidity requirements to ensure it has sufficient cash to meet operational needs while maintaining sufficient headroom on its undrawn committed borrowing facilities / overdraft facilities at all times so that the Company does not breach borrowing limits or covenants (where applicable) on any of its borrowing facilities.
