4.4 Financial risks - continued
The Group is also exposed to foreign currency risks, partly on the transla-
tion of debt denominated in foreign currency other than the functional
currency and partly on the translation of net investments in enterprises
with a functional currency other than DKK. The former risk affects profit
before tax. On recognition of net investments in foreign subsidiaries, the
Group is exposed to a translation risk when the profit or loss and equity of
foreign subsidiaries are translated into DKK at the reporting date based on
the average rates of exchange and the closing rates. The need to hedge
the Parent's net investments in subsidiaries is assessed on a regular basis.
It is Group policy to reduce net investments in Group subsidiaries on an
ongoing basis by distributing the subsidiaries' profits as dividends.
The Group hedges booked external net currency positions and currencies with
large expected short-term operational cash flows for up to six months. At
year-end 2022, 71% of expected six-month cash flows in USD were hedged.
As hedge accounting is only applied to a limited extent and we do not
hedge currency exposure related to intra-group balances with no under-
lying cash flow impact, significant changes in currency rates, especially
EUR/DKK, USD/DKK, CNY/DKK and CHF/DKK, will result in more fluctua-
tions in reported financial items. Unhedged intra-group balances at 31
December are outlined in the main currency exposures table to the right.
In general, the Group does not hedge EUR positions, as it expects that the
official Danish fixed exchange-rate policy against the EUR will continue.
The sensitivity analysis of EUR/DKK exposure shows the effect of a 2%
(2021: 5%) change in average exchange rates for the year on profit/loss
(EBIT) and the effect of a 2% (2021: 5%) change in year-end closing
rates on other comprehensive income.
The sensitivity analysis of other significant currency exposures shows the
effect of a 5% change in average exchange rates for the year on profit/loss
(EBIT) and the effect of a 5% change in year-end closing rates on other
comprehensive income. The calculation method applied in the sensitivity
analysis is unchanged compared to previous years.
