12.Derivative financial instruments The Group’s derivative instruments have been classified as fair value through profit or loss.

| (b) | This relates to the deal-contingent BRL/USD non-deliverable forward transaction entered into by the Group to hedge the Brazilian real-denominated portion of the expected sales proceeds relating to the disposal of our Latam towers business. This derivative is a foreign exchange forward contract which is valued using quoted market inputs for forward foreign exchange rates (i.e. a level 2 instrument). The instrument is deal-contingent, which allows the Company to settle the derivative at the point of closing of the disposal transaction, rather than on a fixed maturity date, and if the disposal does not close for reasons outlined in the derivative’s terms and conditions then the settlement is waived. |
