Net finance costs⁴ (645) 1. Relates to gains and losses on derivative financial instruments in cash flow hedges transferred from other comprehensive income (OCI) and derivatives not designated in accounting hedge relationships. These include net unrealised gains or losses which arise from changes in the fair value of derivative financial instruments to the extent that hedge accounting is not achieved or is ineffective. Fair values increase or decrease because of changes in market rates over which the Group does not have control. The periodic remeasurement of cross-currency interest rate swap contracts to fair value includes an element of foreign currency basis spread. For those cross-currency interest rate swap contracts that designate the entire fair value of the cross- currency interest swap contract as the hedging instrument (including the foreign currency basis spread component), this can result in hedge accounting ineffectiveness in the hedging relationship that is recognised in finance costs. 2. Remeasurement gains of $24 million (2023: $nil) are offset by remeasurement losses of $37 million (2023: $nil) resulting in a net remeasurement loss of $13 million (2023:$nil). 3. Relates to the unwind of discount and remeasurement of shareholder loan notes (SLNs) with STP JV and NWRG (refer to Note B29). 4. In addition to the net finance costs that are included in the profit and loss, $145 million (2023: $92 million) of finance costs have been capitalised and included in the carrying amount of assets under construction (refer to Note B16).
