Risk Factor
• Jet Fuel• Unpredictable price movement • Unable to increase fares when fuel price
rise• Changes in hedging strategy and the
effectiveness of hedging arrangement have significant impact on operating results
![Page 65: Airlines know](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062309/5695d29f1a28ab9b029b2070/html5/thumbnails/65.jpg)
Risk Factor: Jet Fuel
• Anticipating higher jet fuel prices • Not as strong hedge position and higher
market price in 2006• Lower hedge ratio and prices of hedges in
place are higher
![Page 66: Airlines know](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062309/5695d29f1a28ab9b029b2070/html5/thumbnails/66.jpg)
Purpose of Hedging
• Airline operators are inherently dependent upon jet fuel to operate, and therefore, impacted by change in jet fuel prices• Jet fuel and oil consumed in 2005, 2004,
and 2003 represented approximately 19.8%, 16.7%, and 15.2% of operating expenses respectively
• The company endeavours to acquire jet fuel at the lowest possible cost

Hedging Strategy - Jet Fuel
• Hedging Commodities:• Primarily crude oil• Heating oil• Unleaded gas
• Components of hedging positions:• Call options• Collar structures• Fixed price swap agreements

Hedging Strategy: Jet Fuel
• Hedge ratio:• 70% for 2006 at $36/barrel• 60% for 2007 at $39/barrel• 35% for 2008 at $38/barrel• 30% for 2009 at $39/barrel
• Near term hedge positions are in the form of option contracts• Limit the cost of rising fuel price and
benefit the company of declining fuel price

• Interest rate swap
• Take advantage of short term rate significantly lower than fixed long term rate
• Objective is to reduce the volatility of net interest income by better matching the reprising of assets and liabilities
• “A hypothetical ten percent change in market interest rates as of December 31, 2005, would not have a material effect on the fair value of the Company's fixed rate debt instruments.”

Interest Rate Hedging
• Investments• The Company also has some risk associated with changing interest
rates due to the short-term nature of its invested cash• ST invested cash $2.3 billion• ST investment $251 million
• “a hypothetical ten percent change in those rates would correspondingly change the Company's net earnings and cash flows less than $2 million”
The returns earned parallel closely with short-term floating interest rates
• Net effect on interest rate• Increase in interest rate: net +tv effect on earnings and CF• Decrease in interest rate: net –tv effect on earnings and CF
• FV of interest rate swap as of Dec 31, 05 is:• was a liability of approximately $31 million

• To manage credit risk:• selects and periodically reviews counterparties based on credit
ratings • limits its exposure to a single counterparty• and monitors the market position of the program and its
relative market position with each counterparty• The Company had agreements with seven counterparties
containing early termination rights and/or bilateral collateral provisions whereby security is required if market risk exposure exceeds a specified threshold amount or credit ratings fall below certain levels.• held $950 million in fuel hedge related cash collateral deposits
under these bilateral collateral provisions• decrease, but not totally eliminate, the credit risk associated
with the Company's hedging program
