SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES

The most central accounting principles applied in the preparation of the consolidated accounts are described below. These principles have been applied consistently for all of the years presented unless otherwise stated.

The following standards and statements came into effect in 2006

 

 

IAS 19 Amendment – Actuarial Gains and Losses, Group Plans and Disclosures (January 1, 2006)

 

 

IAS 21 Amendment – Net investment in Foreign Operation (January 1, 2006)

 

 

IAS 39 Amendment – Cash Flow Hedge Accounting of Forecast Intragroup Transactions (January 1, 2006)

 

 

IAS 39 Amendment – The Fair Value Option (January 1, 2006)

 

 

IAS 39 and IFRS 4 Amendment Financial Guarantee Contracts (January 1, 2006)

 

 

IFRS 1 First-time Adoption of IFRS, IFRS4 and IFRS 6 Amendment (before January 1, 2006)

 

 

IFRS 6 Exploration for and Evaluation of Mineral Resources (January 1, 2006)

 

 

IFRIC 4 Determining whether an Arrangement contains a Lease (January 1, 2006)

 

 

IFRIC 5 Rights to Interests arising from Decommissioning, Restoration and Environmental Rehabilitation Funds (January 1, 2006)

 

 

IFRIC 6 Liabilities arising from Participating in a Specific Market: Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (December 1, 2005).

The new/amended IFRSs that came into effect from January 1, 2006 impact the OMX Group’s income statement, balance sheet, cash-flow statement and shareholders’ equity only as regards cash-flow hedging (IAS 39 Amendment—Cash flow Hedge Accounting of Forecast Intragroup Transactions). From January 1, 2006, OMX applies hedge accounting of hedging of internally forecast flows in foreign currency. Income from cash-flow hedges are reported against shareholders’ equity.

Regarding IFRIC 4, the Group has a number of large outsourcing contracts in which it assumes responsibility for operations for its customers. In management’s opinion, these contracts do not contain a leasing component since the OMX fixed assets involved are not utilized exclusively by one single customer.
