25.3 Fair value measurement of financial instruments

Accounting policies for financial instruments have been applied to classify as either: amortized cost, financial assets at fair value through profit or loss and fair value through other comprehensive income. For financial instruments that are measured in the statement of financial position at fair value, IFRS 13 requires a disclosure of fair value measurements by level according to the following fair value measurement hierarchy:

Level 1 - Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 - Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (that is, as prices) or indirectly (that is, derived from prices).

Level 3 - Inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (that is, unobservable inputs).

25.3.1 Fair value hierarchy

The following table presents the Group’s financial assets and financial liabilities measured and recognized at fair value as of December 31, 2022 and 2021 on a recurring basis:

The Group did not measure any financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value on a non-recurring basis as of December 31, 2022.

25.3.2 Valuation techniques used to determine fair values

Specific valuation techniques used to value financial instruments include:

The use of quoted market prices or dealer quotes for similar instruments.
The mark-to-market fair value of the Group’s outstanding derivative instruments is based on independently provided market rates and determined using standard valuation techniques, including the impact of counterparty credit risk and are within level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
The fair value of the remaining financial instruments is determined using discounted cash flow analysis. All of the resulting fair value estimates are included in level 2.

25.3.3 Fair values of other financial instruments (unrecognized)

The Group also has a number of financial instruments which are not measured at fair value in the balance sheet. For the majority of these instruments, the fair values are not materially different to their carrying amounts, since the interest receivable/payable is either close to current market rates or the instruments are short-term in nature.

Borrowings are comprised primarily of fixed rate debt and variable rate debt with a short-term portion where interest has already been fixed. They are classified under other financial liabilities and measured at their amortized cost.

The fair value of these financial instruments as of December 31, 2022 amounts to US$ 431,660,000 (US$ 661,404,000 in 2021). The fair values are based on market price for the Notes and cash flows discounted for other borrowings using a rate based on the borrowing rate and are within level 1 and level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, respectively.
