Carrying values do not materially differ from fair value.
Fair value hierarchy
The Group uses the following hierarchy for determining and disclosing the fair
value of financial instruments by valuation technique:
• Level 1: quoted (unadjusted) prices in active markets for identical assets
or liabilities;
• Level 2: other techniques for which all inputs which have a significant
effect on the recorded fair value are observable, either directly or
indirectly; and
• Level 3: techniques which use inputs which have a significant effect on the
recorded fair value that are not based on observable market data.
As at 25 October 2015, the only financial instruments held at fair value were
Derivative financial assets and liabilities, which are classified as Level 2,
and Available-for-sale financial assets, which are classified as Level 1
except for Highland Group Holdings, which is classified as Level 3. Highland
Group Holdings is held at management's estimate of fair value based on
publicly available data, there has been no movement in fair value during the
period.
The value of equity and foreign exchange derivatives is calculated using a
proprietary option pricing model. The model output is the result of a number
of inputs including, amongst other things, the terms of the option (strike
price, time to expiry, etc.), the prevailing share price, interest rates,
foreign exchange rates, the volatility of the underlying stock, and dividends
paid by the underlying company.
The Group has entered into a number of put options referencing listed company
shares. To the extent that the market price of these shares is less than an
agreed price on expiry of the put option, the Group has the right to elect
whether to settle the put option by acquiring ordinary shares or, by paying
the cash settlement value of the put option. Sports Direct is required to
transfer cash collateral to cover its obligations under the Put Option. The
amount of collateral required during the life of the Put Option can increase
or decrease by reference to the underlying market price of the shares.
