Notes to the Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)
(tabular amounts in millions of US dollars, except as noted)

1. CORPORATE INFORMATION
Talisman Energy Inc. (‘Talisman’ or ‘the Company’) is a public company incorporated pursuant to the laws of Canada and domiciled in Alberta, Canada, with common shares listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange and the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol ‘TLM’. The registered office is located at Suite 2000, 888 – 3rd Street SW, Calgary, Alberta, Canada, T2P 5C5.

The Company is in the business of exploration, development, production and marketing of crude oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids (NGLs).

The interim condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as at and for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2013 were approved by the Audit Committee on July 30, 2013.

2. BASIS OF PREPARATION
These interim condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard (IAS) 34, Interim Financial Reporting as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB). Certain information and disclosures required to be included in notes to Annual Consolidated Financial Statements prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and interpretations of the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (IFRIC), as issued by the IASB, have been condensed or omitted.

The interim condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited annual Consolidated Financial Statements as at and for the year ended December 31, 2012 and the notes thereto included in Talisman’s 2012 Annual Report.

These interim condensed Consolidated Financial Statements were prepared on a going concern basis, under the historical cost convention, except for certain financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value through the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Income.

3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
a) Accounting Policies Used
The interim condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared following the same accounting policies and methods of computation as the 2012 Annual Consolidated Financial Statements except for adoption of the following new standards and interpretations effective as of January 1, 2013:

Joint Arrangements, Consolidation, Associates and Disclosures
·  
IFRS 10 Consolidated Financial Statements – establishes the accounting principles for consolidated financial statements when one entity controls other entities and replaces IAS 27 Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements and the related provisions of SIC-12 Consolidation – Special Purpose Entities. This standard established a new control model that applies to all entities. This standard did not have a significant impact on Talisman’s financial results as all subsidiaries are wholly-owned.  The trust holding common shares, to settle the Company’s obligation arising from its long-term performance share unit plan, is consolidated since it is a special purpose entity controlled by the Company and all other results are from joint operations;
 
 
7

 
 
·  
IFRS 11 Joint Arrangements – establishes the accounting principles for parties to a joint arrangement and replaces IAS 31 Interest in Joint Ventures and SIC-13 Jointly Controlled Entities: Non-Monetary Contributions by Venturers.  This standard requires a party to assess its rights and obligations from the arrangement in order to determine whether a joint arrangement represents a joint venture or a joint operation.  As at December 31, 2012, the Company proportionately consolidated all its interest in joint arrangements.  Upon adoption of this standard on January 1, 2013, the Company accounted for its investments in Talisman Sinopec Energy UK Limited (TSEUK) and Equión Energía Limited (Equión) using the equity method of accounting and retrospectively restated the results and financial position. Refer to note 4;
·  
IFRS 12 Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities – establishes comprehensive disclosure requirements for subsidiaries, joint arrangements, associates, and unconsolidated structured entities and replaces existing disclosures in related standards. The Company has provided the additional disclosures in notes 7 and 8 of the interim condensed Consolidated Financial Statements;
·  
IAS 27 Separate Financial Statements – establishes the accounting and disclosure requirements for investments in subsidiaries, joint ventures, and associates when an entity prepares separate financial statements and replaces the current IAS 27 Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements as the consolidation guidance is included in IFRS 10 Consolidated Financial Statements. The adoption of this standard did not have an impact on Talisman’s interim condensed Consolidated Financial Statements; and
·  
IAS 28 Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures – establishes the accounting for investments in associates and defines how the equity method is applied when accounting for associates and joint ventures. This standard did not have an impact on Talisman’s interim condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Employee Benefits
·  
IAS 19 Employee Benefits (revised) – IAS 19 provides the accounting and disclosure requirements by employers for employee benefits. The amendments require the recognition of changes in defined benefit obligations and fair value of plan assets when they occur, eliminating the “corridor approach”, and accelerates the recognition of past service costs. In order for the net defined benefit liability or asset to reflect the full value of the plan deficit or surplus, all actuarial gains and losses are to be recognized immediately through other comprehensive income (OCI). In addition, entities will be required to calculate net interest on the net defined benefit liability or asset using the same discount rate used to measure the defined benefit obligation. The amendments also enhance financial statement disclosures. The amended standard requires retrospective application. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s interim condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Presentation of items of Other Comprehensive Income
·  
IAS 1 Presentation of Items of Other Comprehensive Income - Amendments to IAS 1.  The amendments to IAS 1 improve the quality of the presentation of OCI.  The amendments require companies preparing financial statements in accordance with IFRS to group together items within OCI that may be reclassified to the profit or loss section of the income statement.  The amendments also reaffirm existing requirements that items in OCI and profit or loss should be presented as either a single statement or two consecutive statements.  The amendment affected presentation only and had no impact on the Company’s financial position or performance.

 
8

 
 
Offsetting Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities
·  
IFRS 7 Disclosures - Offsetting Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities - Amendments to IFRS 7. These amendments to IFRS 7 introduce new disclosure requirements about the effects of offsetting financial assets and financial liabilities and related arrangements on an entity’s financial position.  The disclosures will provide users with information that may be useful in evaluating the effect of any netting arrangements in an entity's financial position.  The amendments to IFRS 7 are effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. As the Company is not netting any significant amounts related to financial instruments in accordance with IAS 32 and does not have significant offsetting arrangements, the amendment does not have a significant impact on the Company.

Fair Value Measurement
·  
IFRS 13 Fair Value Measurement – establishes a single framework for fair value measurement and disclosures when fair value is required or permitted under IFRS. Adoption of the standard did not require adjustments to the valuation techniques used by the Company to measure fair value and did not result in any measurement adjustments as at January 1, 2013. This standard had no material impact on the Company’s financial position or performance.

b) Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
The Company continues to assess the impact of adopting the pronouncements from the IASB as described in the 2012 Annual Consolidated Financial Statements.

4. ADOPTION OF IFRS 11 - JOINT ARRANGEMENTS
Effective January 1, 2013, the Company adopted IFRS 11 Joint Arrangements which establishes the accounting principles for parties to a joint arrangement and replaces IAS 31 Interests in Joint Ventures and SIC-13 Jointly Controlled Entities: Non-Monetary Contributions by Venturers.  Upon adoption of this standard, the Company now accounts for its investments in TSEUK and Equión using the equity method of accounting.  Changes have been applied retrospectively in accordance with IAS 8 Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors, resulting in the adjustment of prior period financial information. The impact of adopting IFRS 11 is outlined below.
 
The accounting policies described in note 3 have been applied in preparing the interim condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as at and for the period ended June 30, 2013, the comparative information as at and for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2012 and as at and for the year ended December 31, 2012. The Company’s 2012 comparative balances reflect the deconsolidation of Equión’s entire 2012 balances as joint control was shared over this period.  The Company’s 2012 comparative balances reflect the deconsolidation of TSEUK’s balances commencing December 17, 2012 triggered by the sale of its 49% equity interest in Talisman Energy (UK) Limited (TEUK). The Company has elected not to present a restated January 1, 2012 balance sheet as the only investment impacted is Equión, and the impact was not material for disclosure purposes.
 
On transition to IFRS 11, the net assets of TSEUK were negative, however Talisman has a long-term loan in place with TSEUK. This loan is a long-term interest that in substance forms part of Talisman’s net investment in TSEUK.

The most significant impact of adoption is from the application of equity accounting on joint arrangements which are classified as joint ventures.

Reconciliations from Proportionate Consolidation of Joint Ventures to Equity Accounting under IFRS 11
The Company has adjusted amounts reported previously in its Consolidated Financial Statements. The transition from proportionate consolidation of joint ventures to equity accounting affected the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows as presented in the following reconciliations:

5. DISPOSALS

North America Dispositions
In May 2013, Talisman completed sales of non-core assets in western Canada for proceeds of $63 million, resulting in a pre-tax gain of $52 million ($39 million after tax).

In June 2012, Talisman completed sales of oil and gas producing assets in western Canada for proceeds of $437 million, resulting in a pre-tax gain of $254 million ($187 million after tax).

Southeast Asia Disposition
On May 3, 2013, Talisman completed the sale of its 5.03% interest in the Offshore Northwest Java Production Sharing Contract (PSC) in Indonesia for net proceeds of $36 million, resulting in a pre-tax gain of $9 million ($3 million after tax).

Sale of 49% Equity Interest of Talisman Energy (UK) Limited to China Petrochemical Corporation (Sinopec)
On December 17, 2012, Talisman completed the sale of 49% of its equity interest in TEUK, now renamed TSEUK, which owns substantially all of Talisman’s UK assets, to Addax Petroleum UK Limited (Addax), an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Sinopec, for cash consideration of $1.5 billion based on an effective date of January 1, 2012.  The $1.5 billion cash consideration was comprised of $1,349 million in cash ($1,467 million in cash received net of $118 million cash disposed) and $33 million of working capital and other adjustments. This newly created entity was accounted for using the equity method effective December 17, 2012.

6. BUSINESS COMBINATIONS
Kinabalu PSC
During the three month period ended December 31, 2012, the Company entered into a new PSC with PETRONAS, the national oil company of Malaysia, acquiring a 60% working interest in the Kinabalu PSC, as well as assuming operatorship on December 26, 2012.  As consideration for receipt of the PSC interest, the Company paid to PETRONAS a financial commitment in the amount of $50 million in January 2013.

This acquisition, which builds on the Company's acreage position in Malaysia and is being reported in the Southeast Asia segment, was accounted for using the acquisition method. The fair values of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed by Talisman, after working capital and other adjustments were preliminarily allocated as follows:
 
Fair value of share of net assets acquired
 
Property, plant and equipment
61
Exploration and evaluation assets
39
Decommissioning liability
(53)

The Company assesses investments for impairment whenever changes in circumstances or events indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. If such impairment indicators exist, the carrying amount of the investment is compared to its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of the investment’s fair value less costs to sell and its value in use. The investment is written down to its recoverable amount when its carrying amount exceeds the recoverable amount.

The summarized financial information presented is the amounts included in the financial statements of the joint venture entities adjusted for fair value adjustments made at the time of acquisition, as appropriate. The fair value adjustments related to the Company's jointly controlled equity interest in Equión principally relate to property, plant and equipment, provisions and the related indemnification asset and goodwill.

The shareholders of TSEUK have provided an unsecured loan facility totaling $2.4 billion to TSEUK, of which Talisman is committed to $1.2 billion, for the purpose of funding capital expenditures of TSEUK.  As at June 30, 2013, $986 million has been drawn under this facility, of which Talisman’s share is $503 million.   Loans under this facility bear interest at the UK interest rate swap rate plus 2.5%, and are repayable quarterly in equal installments based upon a five year repayment period calculated from the date each loan is advanced.  All outstanding loans mature December 31, 2017, although the maturity date may be extended from time to time upon agreement between the shareholders and TSEUK.  Prior to the maturity date, TSEUK may repay in full or in part the balance outstanding on any loan under this facility.

The loan due to Equión of $197 million (2012 - $148 million) is unsecured, due upon demand and bears interest at LIBOR plus 0.30%.

The following summary of commitments was included in the Company’s expected future commitments included in the Company’s 2012 audited Consolidated Financial Statements. This summarizes TSEUK commitments as at December 31, 2012. Equión did not have any material commitments as at December 31, 2012. There have been no significant changes to these expected future commitments, and the timing of those payments, since December 31, 2012.

Investments in Joint Operations
Talisman accounts for joint operations using proportionate consolidation.  Talisman’s interest in the Talisman Sasol Montney Partnership (TSMP) has been accounted for as a joint operation and continues to be proportionately consolidated as Talisman shares its interests in the partnership assets based on the Company’s 50% ownership interest and is jointly and severally liable for the obligations of the partnership. TSMP’s principal place of operations and country of incorporation is Canada. The joint operation is strategic to the Company’s business given the similarity in business lines.

Investments in Associate
Talisman has a 12.152% interest in Ocensa whose principal place of operations and country of incorporation is Colombia. On January 17, 2013, Ocensa’s shareholders approved a resolution to change the nature of Ocensa’s business from a cost recovery operating model to a profit oriented operating model, and certain elements of the governance structure within Ocensa.  Among these changes, the arrangement for appointing the Board of Directors was modified, which provided Talisman with the ability to appoint one director to Ocensa’s Board based upon its current ownership interest in Ocensa.  Talisman is now able to exercise significant influence over Ocensa from its ability to participate in the significant operating and financing decisions of Ocensa and as a result, Talisman has accounted for its investment in Ocensa using the equity method commencing January 17, 2013.
 
 
22

 

In addition, the shareholders of Ocensa now have the option to sell, on a temporary or permanent basis, all or a part of their entitlement to shipping capacity on the Ocensa pipeline (the Transportation Rights).  As a result of this change, Talisman has attributed $108 million to the Transportation Rights given its ability to sell excess transportation capacity in the Colombian markets.  The Transportation Rights are recorded in other assets (see note 10), and are being depreciated using the straight-line method at an annual rate of 8%.

The change in accounting for the investment in Ocensa from an available-for-sale financial asset to an equity accounted investment for Talisman’s ownership interest in Ocensa and for the Transportation Rights has been done at fair value.  Talisman considered recent market transactions and the value of the transportation cost savings as well as the value of excess transportation capacity in the Colombian markets in determining fair value.

11. YME REMOVAL OBLIGATION
In March 2013, Talisman, acting on behalf of its partners in the Yme field in Norway, entered into an agreement with the platform contractor. This agreement terminated all existing Yme contracts and outstanding disputes between the Yme partners and the platform contractor, set out the provisions regarding the removal of the existing above-surface Yme structure, the delivery of the existing above-surface Yme structure to the platform contractor (which Talisman, acting on behalf of the Yme partners, will complete as the “Talisman Works”) and provided for a payment of $470 million from the platform contractor to the Yme partners to fund the cost of the Talisman Works.  The Yme partners agreed to deposit $409 million into an escrow account, which can only be withdrawn for purposes of settling costs and liabilities associated with the Talisman Works.
 
As at June 30, 2013, Talisman’s share of the liability associated with the Talisman Works in the amount of $275 million has been recorded as the Yme removal obligation of which $103 million has been classified as current, as it is expected to be settled within the next twelve months, while the remaining $172 million has been classified as long-term.  Talisman’s share of the cash held in the escrow account in the amount of $238 million has been recorded as restricted cash of which $103 million has been classified as current, while the remaining $135 million has been classified as long-term.  During the three month period ended June 30, 2013, $7 million in eligible expenditures were incurred on the Talisman Works which reduced both the restricted cash and the Yme removal obligation by an equal amount.

During the three month period ended June 30, 2013, the Company recorded $12 million of impairment expense relating to its exit from Sierra Leone. The Company also recorded impairment reversals of $21 million in the North Sea, due primarily to a reduction in the decommissioning obligation and assets caused by a 1% increase in the real discount rated used to measure decommissioning liabilities.
 
During the three month period ended June 30, 2012, the Company recorded $73 million of impairment expense related to exploration acreage being relinquished in the Kurdistan Region of northern Iraq in order to focus on the potential of discoveries on the Topkhana and Kurdamir blocks.

Bank Credit Facilities and Commercial Paper
At June 30, 2013, Talisman had unsecured credit facilities totaling $3.1 billion, consisting of facilities of C$3.0 billion (Facility No. 1) and $200 million (Facility No. 2). On March 19, 2013, the Company renegotiated Facility No. 1 of its revolving syndicated credit facility which matures March 19, 2018. Facility No. 2 matures November 26, 2014 although the maturity dates may be extended from time to time upon agreement between the Company and the respective lenders. Facility No. 1 acts as a five-year committed credit facility which must be repaid on the maturity date.

Borrowings under Facility No. 1 are available in the form of prime loans, C$ or US$ bankers’ acceptances, US$ base rate loans or LIBOR-based loans.  In addition, drawings to a total of $1.0 billion are available in the form of letters of credit.  Borrowings under Facility No. 2 are available in the form of prime loans, C$ or US$ guaranteed notes, US$ base rate loans and LIBOR-based loans.

At June 30, 2013, $509 million of commercial paper was outstanding and a further $86 million of supporting letters of credit was outstanding under Facility No. 2. The amount available under the commercial paper program is limited to the availability of backup funds under the Company’s bank credit facilities.

With the exception of the $567 million of debt presented as a current liability, Talisman has no significant debt maturities until 2015.  The current liability consists of $509 million in commercial paper, $50 million of 8.25% notes, and $8 million in Tangguh project financing.

At June 30, 2013, available borrowing capacity under the bank credit facilities was $2.5 billion.

1.   Dollar amounts in share-based payments tables are provided in C$.

During the three month period ended June 30, 2013, the Company recorded a share-based payments expense of $2  million (2012 - $31  million recovery) in respect of the following plans: stock options - $30 million recovery, cash units - $1 million expense, PSUs - $18 million expense and RSUs - $9 million expense. The Company also recorded a DSU expense of $7 million, of which $3 million relating specifically to directors and bonus deferrals to executives, is recognized in general and administrative expense within the condensed Consolidated Statement of Income.   The share-based payments expense includes a cash payment of $2 million (2012 - $1 million) to employees in settlement of fully accrued share-based payments liabilities for stock options and cash units exercised in the period.

During the six month period ended June 30, 2013, the Company recorded share-based payments expense of $24 million (2012 - $72 million recovery) in respect of the following plans: stock options $23 million recovery, cash units - $1 million expense, PSUs - $35 million expense, long-term 2010 PSU grant settled to UK employees $3 million recovery and RSUs - $10 million expense. The Company also recorded a DSU expense of $8 million, of which $4 million relating to directors and executive deferrals is recognized in general and administrative expense within the condensed Consolidated Statement of Income.

Of the combined obligation for cash-settled stock option, cash unit, DSU and RSU plans of $145 million (December 31, 2012 – $154 million), $134 million (December 31, 2012 – $134 million) is included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities on the interim condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and $11 million (December 31, 2012 – $20 million) is included in other long-term obligations.

On April 1, 2013, Talisman implemented the “Global Restricted Share Unit Plan for Eligible Employees of Talisman Energy Inc. and its affiliates”.  All RSUs issued by the Company permit the holder to receive a cash payment equal to the market value of the common shares at the vest date. Participants are also credited with additional RSUs corresponding to any associated notional dividend payments (referred to as ‘dividend equivalent RSUs’). Typically, one third of the RSUs granted under the plan are paid on the grant anniversary date every year for the three years following the grant date.  In 2013, non-executive employees were granted a total of 8,942,685 RSUs in place of stock options, cash units and PSUs.

Subsequent to June 30, 2013, no stock options were granted, 1,070 stock options were exercised for shares, no options were surrendered for cash and 374,092 were forfeited with 49,007,312 outstanding at July 26, 2013.  Subsequent to June 30, 2013, no cash units were granted, 20,797 cash units were forfeited with 2,139,595 outstanding at July 26, 2013.  Subsequent to June 30, 2013, no PSUs were granted and 103,954 PSUs were forfeited, with 12,744,958 outstanding at July 26, 2013. Subsequent to June 30, 2013, no RSUs were granted, 14,733 were exercised and 119,686 forfeited, with 8,519,161 outstanding at July 26, 2013. There were no DSU’s granted or forfeited subsequent to June 30, 2013.
 

19. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Talisman’s financial assets and liabilities at June 30, 2013 consisted of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, available-for-sale investments, bank indebtedness, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, loans from joint ventures, long-term debt (including the current portion) and risk management assets and liabilities arising from the use of derivative financial instruments.

Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities
The fair values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, bank indebtedness, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and loans from joint ventures approximate their carrying values due to the short-term maturity of those instruments.

Borrowings under bank credit facilities are short-term in nature and are market rate-based, thus, carrying value approximates fair value.  The fair value of public debentures and notes is based on market quotations, which reflect the discounted present value of the principal and interest payments using the effective yield for instruments having the same term and risk characteristics.  The fair values of private notes are based on estimations provided by third parties.  The fair value of Talisman’s floating rate debt is determined by discounting future estimated coupon payments at the current market interest rate.  The fair value of Talisman’s long-term debt at June 30, 2013 was $5.3 billion (December 31, 2012 - $5.2 billion), while the carrying value was $4.9 billion (December 31, 2012 - $4.4 billion).

The fair values of all other financial assets and liabilities approximate their carrying values.
 
 
31

 

Risk management assets and liabilities are recorded at their estimated fair values.  To estimate fair value, the Company uses quoted market prices when available, or models that utilize observable market data.  In addition to market information, the Company incorporates transaction-specific details that market participants would utilize in a fair value measurement, including the impact of non-performance risk.  The Company’s non-performance risk is determined based on third party quotes for the Company’s debt instruments with maturity dates that are similar, or in close approximation, to the maturity dates of the corresponding financial instrument. The Company characterizes inputs used in determining fair value using a hierarchy that prioritizes inputs depending on the degree to which they are observable.


The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

·  
Level 1 – inputs represent quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (for example, exchange-traded commodity derivatives).  Active markets are those in which transactions occur in sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis;
·  
Level 2 – inputs other than quoted prices included within level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, as of the reporting date. Level 2 valuations are based on inputs, including quoted forward prices for commodities, market interest rates and volatility factors, which can be observed or corroborated in the marketplace.  The Company obtains information from sources such as the New York Mercantile Exchange (NYMEX) and independent price publications; and
·  
Level 3 – inputs that are less observable, unavailable or where the observable data does not support the majority of the instrument’s fair value, such as the Company’s internally developed assumptions about market participant assumptions used in pricing an asset or liability, for example, an estimate of future cash flows used in the Company’s internally developed present value of future cash flows model that underlies the fair value measurement.

In forming estimates, the Company utilizes the most observable inputs available for valuation purposes.  If a fair value measurement reflects inputs of different levels within the hierarchy, the measurement is categorized based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.  The valuation of over the counter financial swaps and collars is based on similar transactions observable in active markets or industry standard models that rely primarily on market observable inputs.  Substantially all of the assumptions for industry standard models are observable in active markets throughout the full term of the instrument. These are categorized as level 2.

Fair values for cross-currency and interest rate derivative instruments are determined based on the estimated cash payment or receipt necessary to settle the contract.  Cash payments or receipts are based on discounted cash flow analysis using current market rates and prices.  Fair values for commodity price derivatives are based on discounted cash flow analysis using current market rates and prices and option pricing models using forward pricing curves and implied volatility, as appropriate, which are compared to quotes received from financial institutions for reasonability.

During the three month period ended June 30, 2013, the Company recorded a gain on held-for-trading financial instruments of $221 million (2012 - $35 million gain) and a gain of $141 million for the six month period ended June 30, 2013 (2012 - $12 million loss).

Currency Risk
Talisman operates internationally and is therefore exposed to foreign exchange risk.  Talisman’s primary exposure is from fluctuations in the US$ relative to the C$, UK£, and NOK.

Talisman manages its foreign exchange exposure in a number of ways.  By denominating most of its borrowings in US$, the Company is able to reduce some of its economic exposure to currency fluctuations.  Talisman also manages its translation exposure by generally matching internal borrowings with its subsidiaries’ functional currencies.  The Company purchases foreign currencies, mostly at spot value, to meet its current foreign currency obligations as they come due.

In respect of financial instruments existing at June 30, 2013, a 1% strengthening of the US$ against the other currencies noted above, with all other variables assumed constant, would have resulted in an increase of $3 million in net income and a $3 million impact on other comprehensive income during the three month period ended June 30, 2013.  A similar weakening of the US$ would have had the opposite impact.

Interest Rate Risk
Talisman is exposed to interest rate risk principally by virtue of its borrowings including loans from joint ventures.  Borrowing at floating rates exposes Talisman to short-term movements in interest rates.  Borrowing at fixed rates exposes Talisman to reset risk (i.e. at debt maturity).  Risk management activities aim to manage the mix of fixed-to-floating debt to best manage the trade-off between longer term interest rate reset risk and shorter term volatility in interest rates.

In order to mitigate its exposure to interest rate changes, Talisman enters into interest rate swaps from time to time to manage the ratio of fixed rate debt to floating rate debt.  At June 30, 2013, the Company had fixed-to-floating interest rate swap contracts with a total notional amount of $300 million that expire on May 15, 2015.  During both the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2013, the fair value of the fixed-to-floating interest rate swaps decreased by $7 million. During the second quarter of 2013, the Company received $6 million of cash related to these swaps.

In respect of financial instruments existing at June 30, 2013, a 1% increase in interest rates would have resulted in a $1 million decrease in net income and a $1 million impact on other comprehensive income during the three month period ended June 30, 2013.

Credit Risk
A significant proportion of Talisman’s accounts receivable balance is with customers in the oil and gas industry and is subject to normal industry credit risks.  At June 30, 2013, approximately 91% of the Company's trade accounts receivable was current and the largest single counterparty exposure, accounting for 10% of the total, was with a highly rated counterparty.  Concentration of credit risk is mitigated by having a broad domestic and international customer base of highly rated counterparties.

Liquidity Risk
Talisman is exposed to liquidity risk, which is the risk that the Company may be unable to generate or obtain sufficient cash to meet its commitments as they come due.  Talisman mitigates this risk through its management of cash, debt, committed credit capacity and its capital program.

Talisman manages its liquidity requirements by use of both short-term and long-term cash forecasts, and by maintaining appropriate undrawn capacity under committed bank credit facilities. The Company has in place facilities totaling $3.1 billion, of which $2.9 billion is fully committed through 2018.  At June 30, 2013, $509 million of commercial paper was drawn and $86 million was supporting letters of credit.   Available borrowing capacity was $2.5 billion at June 30, 2013.

In addition, the Company utilizes letters of credit pursuant to letter of credit facilities, most of which are uncommitted.  At June 30, 2013, letters of credit totaling $1.9 billion had been issued under these facilities, of which $1.5 billion were provided as security for the costs of decommissioning obligations in the UK. Under the contractual arrangements pursuant to which Addax acquired 49% of the share capital of TEUK, Addax’s parent company, Sinopec, has provided an unconditional and irrevocable guarantee for 49% of the UK decommissioning obligations. The remaining outstanding letters of credit relate primarily to a retirement compensation arrangement, guarantees of minimum work commitments and decommissioning obligations in other areas.

Talisman renewed its syndicated credit facility on March 19, 2013 and the maturity date on the majority of the facilities is March 2018. The Company has no significant debt maturities until 2015.

Except for commodity price derivative contracts that mature as noted below, long-term debt that matures as outlined in note 16 and other long-term obligations detailed in note 17, all of the Company’s financial liabilities are due within one year.

Commodity Price Risk
Talisman is exposed to commodity price risk since its revenues are dependent on the price of crude oil, natural gas and NGLs.  Talisman enters into derivative instruments from time to time to mitigate commodity price risk volatility under guidelines approved by the Board of Directors.  The Company may hedge a portion of its future production to protect cash flows to allow it to meet its strategic objectives.

Subsequent to June 30, 2013, the Company entered into a Western Canadian Select (WCS) swap for the fourth quarter of 2013 of 6,500 bbls/d for $75.42/bbl, a WCS swap for the first quarter of 2014 of 6,500 bbls/d for $72.47/bbl and a WTI swap for 2014 of 10,000 bbls/d for $94.28/bbl.

In respect of outstanding financial instruments and assuming forward commodity prices in existence at June 30, 2013, an increase of $1/bbl in the price of oil and an increase of $0.10/mcf in the price of gas would have reduced the net fair value of commodity derivatives, thereby resulting in a decrease in net income of $35 million for the three month period ended June 30, 2013.  A similar decrease in commodity prices would result in an increase in net income of approximately $37 million for the three month period ended June 30, 2013.

20. CONTINGENCIES AND COMMITMENTS
Provisions and Contingencies
From time to time, Talisman is the subject of litigation arising out of the Company’s operations.  Damages claimed under such litigation may be material or may be indeterminate and the outcome of such litigation may materially impact the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.  While Talisman assesses the merits of each lawsuit and defends itself accordingly, the Company may be required to incur significant expenses or devote significant resources to defend itself against such litigation.  These claims are not currently expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position.

The New York Attorney General has commenced an investigation, pursuant to the Martin Act, into the disclosure practices of companies engaged in hydraulic fracturing in the New York state area.  The Martin Act provides broad authority to commence and conduct investigations, whether upon receipt of a complaint, or on the Attorney General’s own initiative.  Subpoenas have been issued to a number of companies, including Talisman.  The Company has been cooperating with the New York Attorney General in the investigation.  No enforcement action has been taken against Talisman, nor has the Company been advised that any enforcement action is imminent.

Commitments
As a result of the Yme settlement in March 2013 (see note 11), ocean-going vessel commitments in Norway of $375 million, included in note 23 of the Company’s 2012 audited Consolidated Financial Statements, no longer represent expected future commitments as at June 30, 2013.
 
There have been no additional significant changes in the Company’s expected future commitments, and the timing of those payments, since December 31, 2012.  Refer to note 23 to the 2012 audited Consolidated Financial Statements for details of the Company’s commitments.

In the second quarter of 2013, the Company recorded a tax liability associated with a tax position taken in Southeast Asia.  While the Company believes it has a strong technical and legal basis for its position, recent court rulings suggest it is more likely than not that the Company’s tax position will not prevail. Accordingly, the Company recorded a $31 million current tax and a $26 million deferred tax expense, which relates to the years 2003 to 2013.  Additionally during the second quarter, the Company recorded a $16 million benefit from the resolution of a tax position in North America and expects to receive a $16 million refund in the third quarter of 2013.
