Note 1

Summary of significant accounting policies

Norwegian Air Shuttle ASA and its subsidiaries (together ‘the Group’) is a low-fare airline incorporated in Norway and headquartered at Fornebu outside of Oslo. Norwegian Air Shuttle ASA is a public limited liability company and listed on the Oslo Stock Exchange.

The consolidated financial statements of Norwegian Air Shuttle ASA for the year ended 31 December 2009 were authorized for issue by the Board of Directors on 24 March 2010.

1.2 Basis of preparation

The consolidated financial statements of Norwegian Air Shuttle ASA have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), as adopted by the EU. The consolidated financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, as modified by the revaluation of available-for-sale financial assets, financial assets and financial liabilities (including derivative instruments) at fair value through profit or loss.

In order to prepare financial statements in conformity with IFRS, it is necessary to use certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise its judgment when applying the Group’s accounting policies. The areas which implicate a higher degree of judgment or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the consolidated financial statements, are disclosed in paragraph 1.5.

1.3 Basis of consolidation

The Group’s consolidated financial statements comprise Norwegian Air Shuttle ASA, and its fully owned subsidiaries Norwegian Air Shuttle Polska Sp.zo.o , Norwegian Air Shuttle Sweden AB, NAS Asset Management Ireland Ltd, NAS Asset Management Norway AS and Call Norwegian AS. Additionally, the Group controls a company in the United States, DY 1 Leasing LLC. This is a special purpose entity (SPE) established for aircraft financing purposes. The Group does not own the shares, but has all risks and rewards related to the assets, liabilities and operations in the SPE.

The financial statements of the subsidiaries and SPE’s are prepared for the same reporting period as the parent company, using consistent accounting policies.

The purchase method is applied when accounting for business combinations. Companies which have been purchased or sold during the year are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date when control is achieved and till the date when control is ceased.

The cost of an acquisition is measured as the fair value of the assets given, equity instruments issued and liabilities incurred or assumed at the date of exchange, plus costs directly attributable to the acquisition. Identifiable assets acquired liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date, irrespective of the extent of any minority interest. The excess of the cost of acquisition over the fair value of the Group’s share of the identifiable net assets acquired, is recorded as goodwill.

 

All intra Group balances, transactions, income and expense and profit and losses resulting from intra Group transactions that are recognized in assets and liabilities, are completely eliminated.

An associate is an entity in which the Group has a significant influence but does not control the management of its finances and operations (normally when the Group owns 20%-50% of the company). The consolidated financial statements include the Group’s share of the profits/losses from associates, accounted for using the equity method, from the date when a significant influence is achieved and till the date when such influence is ceased. The Group’s share of its associates’ post- acquisition profits or losses is recognized in the income statement, and its share of post-acquisition movements in reserves is recognized in reserves. The cumulative post-acquisition movements are adjusted against the carrying amount of the investment. Dilution gains and losses arising in investments in associates are recognized in the income statement.

 

 

1.4 Foreign currency translation

The Group’s presentation currency is NOK. Norwegian Air Shuttle ASA’s functional currency is NOK. Each entity in the Group determines its own functional currency, and items included in the financial statements of each entity are measured in that functional currency. For consolidation purposes, the balance sheet figures in subsidiaries with a different functional currency than NOK are translated at the closing rate at the balance sheet date. Income and expenses for each income statement are translated at average exchange rate for the period, this being a reasonable approximation for actual rate. Exchange differences are recognized in comprehensive income and specified separately in equity.

Transactions in foreign currencies are initially recorded in the functional currency rate ruling at the date of transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the functional currency rate of exchange ruling at the balance sheet date. All differences are recognized in profit or loss. Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the dates of the initial transactions.

Goodwill and fair value adjustments arising on the acquisition of a foreign entity are treated as assets and liabilities of the foreign entity and translated at the closing rate.

1.5 Critical accounting estimates and judgments

In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management has to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expenses. The critical judgments and key sources of estimation uncertainty that have been made in preparing the consolidated financial statements are detailed below. These judgments involve assumptions or estimates in respect of future events which can vary from what is expected.

Deferred tax assets are recognized for all unused tax losses to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be generated. Significant management judgment is required to determine the amount of deferred tax assets that can be recognized, based upon the likely timing and level of future taxable profits together with future tax planning strategies. See note 9 for further details.

The cost of defined benefit pension plans is determined by using actuarial valuations. The actuarial valuation involves making assumptions about discount rates, expected rates of return on assets, future salary increases, mortality rates and future pension increases. Due to the long term nature of these plans, such estimates are subject to significant uncertainty. A sensitivity analysis is outlined in note 18.

The Group tests annually whether goodwill and other intangible assets with indefinite lives, have suffered any impairment in accordance with the accounting policy stated in note 1.8. The recoverable amounts of cash-generating units have been determined based on value-in-use calculations. These calculations require the use of estimates (see note 10).

Bad debt provisions for credit card receivables are based on actual historical loss percentage and actual withdrawal for payments from credit card companies.

Fair value of financial instruments is determined using fair value estimation techniques. Valuation techniques and details on financial instruments are outlined in note 20.

1.6 Tangible assets

Tangible assets are carried at historical cost, less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. When assets are sold or disposed of, the gross carrying amount and accumulated depreciation and impairment losses are derecognized, and any gain or loss on the sale or disposal is recognized in the income statement.

The gross carrying amount of non-current assets is the purchase price, including duties/taxes and direct acquisition costs relating to making the non-current asset ready for its intended use. Subsequent costs, such as repair and maintenance costs, are normally recognized in profit or loss as incurred. When increased future economic benefits are the result of repair and maintenance work which can be verified, these costs will be recognized in the balance sheet as additions to non-current assets. Borrowing costs are capitalized on qualifying assets.

Non-current assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis or by airborne hours and cycles over the estimated useful life of the asset beginning when the asset is ready for its intended use. Expected residual value is assessed when estimating the depreciable amount of the asset and deducted from the depreciable amount.

Investments in leased aircraft including cabin interior modifications are depreciated over their useful lives, but not exceeding the remaining leasing period.

Rotable spare parts are carried as non current assets and depreciated over their useful lives.

Buildings are carried at acquisition cost, less accumulated depreciation.

The Group capitalizes prepayments on the purchase contract of 46 Boeing 737 aircraft. The prepayments are classified as tangible assets as presented at the face of the balance sheet. The prepayments include capitalized borrowing costs and gains/losses on qualifying fair value hedges. At the delivery of the aircraft, prepayments are included in acquisition cost of the aircraft and reclassified as aircraft in the balance sheet.

Financial lease assets are initially recognized at the lowest of acquisition cost and future minimum lease payments. The assets are carried as non current assets and depreciated on a straight-line basis over their expected useful lives.

The depreciation period and method are assessed each year to ensure that the method and period used reconcile with the substance of the non-current asset. The residual value is estimated at each year end and changes to the residual value are accounted for prospectively. Additional details on tangible assets are outlined in note 11.

1.7 Intangible assets

Computer software

Acquired computer software licenses are capitalized on the basis of the costs incurred to obtain and apply the specific software. These costs are amortized over their estimated useful life.

Goodwill and other intangible assets

Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of an acquisition over the fair value of the Group’s share of the net identifiable assets of the acquired subsidiary at the date of acquisition. Goodwill is tested annually for impairment and carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses. Gains and losses on the disposal of an entity include the carrying amount of goodwill relating to the entity sold.

Other intangible assets are related to identifiable assets from business combinations and investments in other intangible assets.

Intangible assets that are determined to have indefinite economic lives, are not amortized, but subject for annual impairment testing. The determination of indefinite economic lives is based on management’s assessment that there is no foreseeable limit to the period over which the asset is expected to generate net cash inflows for the entity.

See note 1.8 for details of impairment testing of non-financial assets and note 10 for additional details on intangible assets.

1.8 Impairment of non financial assets

Intangible assets that have an indefinite economic useful life are not subject to amortization and are tested annually for impairment. Assets that are subject to amortization are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognized for the amount by which the asset’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s fair value less costs to sell and value in use.

For the purposes of impairment testing, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable cash flows (cash-generating units). The allocation is made to those cash-generating units that are expected to benefit from the assets. Management has assessed the Group as one segment and the total operations in the Group as its cash generating unit. The determination of cash generating units is based on how management operates and assesses the Group’s performance, profit and cash flow. The aircraft fleet is operated as one unit and the route portfolio is administered and diversified as one unit generating the Group's profit and cash flow; hence, goodwill and other non current assets are reallocated to the entire Group for the purpose of impairment testing.

Non current assets other than goodwill that suffered impairment are reviewed for possible reversal of the impairment at each reporting date. Impairment losses on goodwill are not reversed.

1.9 Financial assets

Financial assets are classified in the following categories; at fair value through profit or loss, held-to-maturity investments, loans and receivables and available-for-sale. The Group holds financial instruments that are classified at fair value through profit or loss, available-for-sale, and loans and receivables. The classification depends on the purpose for which the financial assets were acquired. Management determines the classification of its financial assets at initial recognition.

Regular purchases and sales of financial assets are recognized on the trade-date; the date on which the Group commits to purchase or sell the asset. Investments are initially recognized at fair value plus transaction costs for all financial assets not carried at fair value through profit or loss. Financial assets carried at fair value through profit or loss, are initially recognized at fair value and transaction costs are expensed in the income statement.

Financial assets are derecognized when the rights to receive cash flows from the investments have expired or have been transferred and the Group has transferred substantially all risks and rewards of ownership. Available-for-sale financial assets and financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are subsequently carried at fair value. Loans and receivables are carried at amortized cost using the effective interest method.

1.9.1 Impairment of financial assets

The Group assesses at each balance sheet date whether there is objective evidence that a financial asset or a group of financial assets are impaired. The fair values of quoted investments are based on current mid prices at the balance sheet date. If the market for a financial asset is not active (and for unlisted securities), the Group establishes fair value by using valuation techniques. The valuation hierarchy for financial assets is detailed in note 20 where the techniques are making maximum use of market inputs and relying as little as possible on entity-specific inputs.

Impairment losses of financial assets measured at amortized cost are incurred only if there is objective evidence of impairment as a result of one or more events that occurred after initial recognition. Impairment losses are recognized in the consolidated income statement if the losses have had an impact on the estimated future cash flows and that the impact can be reliably estimated.

1.10 Derivative financial instruments and hedging activities

Derivatives are initially recognized at fair value on the transaction date and subsequently measured at their fair value. The method of recognizing the resulting gain or loss depends on whether the derivative is designated as a hedging instrument, and if so, the nature of the item being hedged. In 2008, the Group designated some of its derivatives as hedges of the fair value of a firm commitment (fair value hedge).

The fair values of various derivative instruments used for hedging purposes are disclosed in note 20. The full fair value of a hedging derivative is classified as a non-current asset or liability when the remaining hedged item is more than 12 months and as a current asset or liability when the remaining maturity of the hedged item is less than 12 months. Trading derivatives are classified as a current asset or liability.

Fair value hedge

Changes in fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as fair value hedges are recorded in the income statement, together with any changes in the fair value of the hedged assets or liabilities that are attributable to the hedged risk. The Group only applies fair value hedge accounting for hedging foreign currency risk in unrecognized firm commitments. The gain or loss relating to the effective portion of forward foreign currency contracts, hedging foreign currency risk in unrecognized firm commitments, is recognized as capitalized costs on the recognized firm commitment in the balance sheet. The gain or loss relating to the ineffective portion is recognized in the income statement within financial items.

If the hedge no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting, the adjustment to the carrying amount of the hedged item is depreciated over the useful life of the asset.

1.11 Inventory

Inventory of spare parts are carried at the lower of acquisition cost and net realizable value. Cost is determined using the first in – first out (FIFO) method. Obsolete inventory have been fully recognized as impairment losses. Inventory is consumed during maintenance and overhaul of the airplanes, and is expensed when consumed.

1.12 Trade receivables

Receivables from credit card companies are classified as trade receivables in the balance sheet.

1.13 Cash and cash equivalents

The Group holds investments in money market funds. These investments are classified as either cash equivalents or financial assets available-for-sale depending on the maturity of the investments.

1.14 Equity

Share capital comprises the number of shares multiplied by their nominal value, and are classified as equity.

Transaction costs directly attributable to an equity transaction are recognized in equity net of tax.

Acquisition of own shares are recognized in share capital and retained earnings. The number of shares purchased multiplied by the nominal value is deducted from outstanding share capital. The share premium paid is recognized in other equity. The sale of own shares is booked accordingly, with nominal value as increase of share capital, and share premium in other equity.

1.15 Borrowings

Borrowings are recognized initially at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently measured at amortized cost; any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption value is recognized in the income statement over the period of the borrowings using the effective interest method.

Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the Group has an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the balance sheet date. For details for capitalization of borrowing costs, see note 11.

1.16 Provisions

Provisions are recognized when the Group has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation and the amount has been reliably estimated. Where the Group expects some or all of a provision to be reimbursed, for example under an insurance contract, the reimbursement is recognized as a separate asset but only when the reimbursement is virtually certain. The expense relating to any provision is presented in the income statement net of any reimbursement. If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are discounted using a current pre tax rate that reflects, where appropriate, the risks specific to the liability. Where discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognized as a finance cost.

1.17 Employee benefits

Defined benefit plans

The Group operates a defined benefit pension plan which requires contributions to be made to a separately administered fund. In addition, the Group participates in an early retirement plan (AFP) for employments in Norway. The cost of providing benefits under the defined benefit plan is determined using the projected unit credit actuarial valuation method. Actuarial gains and losses are recognized as income or expense when the net cumulative unrecognized actuarial gains and losses, at the end of the previous reporting year, exceed 10% of the higher of the defined benefit obligation and the fair value of plan assets at that date. These gains or losses are recognized over the expected average remaining working lives of the employees participating in the plans.

The past service cost is recognized as an expense on a straight-line basis over the average period until the benefits are vested. If the benefits are already vested immediately following the introduction of or changes to a pension plan, past service cost is recognized immediately.

The defined benefit obligation is the aggregate of the present value of the defined benefit obligation and actuarial gains and losses not recognized reduced by past service costs not yet recognized and the fair value of plan assets out of which the obligations are to be settled directly. If such aggregate is negative, the asset is measured at the lower of such aggregate or the aggregate of cumulative unrecognized net actuarial losses and past service cost and the present value of any economic benefits available in the form of refunds from the plan or reductions in the future contributions to the plan.

Defined contribution plans

Share options

Employee share purchase savings program

Bonus shares and employer’s contribution are measured at fair value using Black and Scholes option pricing model. The bonus expenses for the company are included in personnel costs. The distribution of bonus shares is accounted for in accordance with IFRS 2, where the fair value of the share distribution is recognized as an expense over the expected period until settlement. Estimated employer’s contribution is recognized as an expense over the expected period until settlement. Changes in estimates affecting employer’s contribution are expensed over the remaining expected period. For further details see note 17.

1.18 Current and deferred income tax

Current income tax

Current income tax assets and liabilities for the current and prior periods are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the amount are those that are enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date.

Deferred income tax

Deferred income tax is determined by using the liability method on temporary differences at the balance sheet date between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes.

Deferred income tax liabilities are recognized for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred income tax assets are recognized for all deductible temporary differences, carry forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses, to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences, and the carry forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses can be utilized.

The carrying amount of deferred income tax assets is reviewed at each balance sheet date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred income tax asset to be utilized. Unrecognized deferred income tax assets are reassessed at each balance sheet date and are recognized to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profit will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered.

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the year when the asset is realized or the when the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted, or substantively enacted, at the balance sheet date.

Deferred income tax assets and deferred income tax liabilities are offset to the extent that:

- the Group has a legally enforceable right to offset the recognized amounts and

- deferred tax assets and tax liabilities relates to income tax from the same tax authorities and same taxable entity in the Group, or if different taxable entities in the Group intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

Deferred income tax is provided on temporary differences arising on investments in subsidiaries and associates, except where the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference is controlled by the Group and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future.

1.19 Contingent assets and liabilities

A contingent asset is not recognized in the annual financial statements, but disclosed in the notes where an inflow of economic benefits is probable.

Contingent liabilities are defined as possible obligations arising from past events whose existence depends on future events, or it is not probable that they will lead to an outflow of resources, or cannot be measured with sufficient reliability.

Contingent liabilities are not recognized in the annual financial statements, but significant contingent liabilities are disclosed in the notes to the financial statements, with the exception of contingent liabilities where the probability of the liability occurring is remote.

1.20 Revenue recognition

Revenue comprises the fair value of the consideration received or receivable for the sale of goods and services in the ordinary course of the Group’s activities. Revenue is shown net of value-added tax and discounts. The Group recognizes revenue when the amount of revenue can be reliably measured, it is probable that future economic benefits will flow to the entity and when specific criteria have been met for each of the Group’s activities as described below

Passenger revenue

Passenger revenue is reported as traffic revenue when the air transport has been carried out. The value of tickets sold and still valid but not used at the balance sheet date (amounts sold in excess of revenue recognized) is reported as air traffic settlement liability. This liability is reduced either when the Group or another airline completes the transportation or when the passenger requests a refund.

Ancillary revenue

Ancillary revenue comprises sales of ticket-related products and services, e.g; excess baggage and fees. Some of the products and services are earned at the time when the transport has been carried out, and such revenue is recognized in the same manner as passenger revenue. Other products and services are earned at the time of purchase and immediately recognized in the income statement.

Amounts paid by ‘no show’ customers are recognized as revenue when the booked service is provided. ‘No show’ customers with low fare tickets are not entitled to change flights or seek refunds once a flight has departed.

Other revenue

Other revenue comprises third party revenue, such as wet-lease, cargo and revenue from business activities in subsidiaries which are not airlines.

Other airline revenue is recognized when the service has been rendered, fees are reliable measurable, collections are probable, and when other significant obligations have been fulfilled.

Revenue from sales of GSM and Broadband products and services comprises traffic fees and subscription, as well as telephone and PC products. Revenue from subscription fees are recognized over the subscription period while deliveries of other services are recognized as revenue at the time of actual use. Revenue from product sales are recognized when the equipment including related significant risks and rewards are transferred to the buyer and the entity no longer retains effective control over the products sold.

Customer loyalty program – Norwegian Reward

The Group has implemented a customer loyalty program. Customers earn cash points in the following circumstances;

- Corporate reward customer; 3% on all low fare tickets and 7% on all full flex tickets.

- Call Norwegian customer; 3% of all purchases.

Corporate customers gain cash points on all airfares. Private customers gain cash points on international flights only, as domestic flights in Norway are prohibited from cash points earning for private customers.

Customer cash points gained from purchasing airline tickets and purchases from Call Norwegian are recognized as a liability in the balance sheet and deducted from the value of the purchase at the date of purchase. The customer cash point liability is derecognized from the balance sheet and recognized as income when customers utilize their cash points.

Earned customer cash points on 1% reward from Bank Norwegian are recognized as a liability in the balance sheet and immediately expensed. When the customers utilize earned cash points, the liability is derecognized and cash payment on the Group’s services reduced.

Unutilized cash points are derecognized from the balance sheet after three years. The liability is classified as short term, as available statistics as of 31 December 2009 indicate that customer cash points are utilized within one year.

1.21 Leasing

To determine whether an arrangement is, or contains a lease, it is necessary to assess whether the fulfillment of the arrangement is dependent on the use of a specific asset and if the arrangement conveys a right to use the asset.

Deposits made at the inception of operating leases are carried at amortized cost. The difference between the nominal value of a deposit paid carried at less than market interest and its fair value is considered as additional rent payable to the lessor and is expensed on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

The Group leases tangible assets where the lease agreements transfer all material risks and rewards of the asset to the lessee at the end of the lease term. Such lease agreements are classified as financial leases. Financial leases are recognized at inception to the lowest of acquisition cost and the net present value of minimum lease payments. Financial lease assets are depreciated on a linear basis over the lease period if such is shorter than the economic useful life of the financial lease asset. Financial lease assets are included in the balance sheet as tangible assets.

Each lease payment under financial leases is split between the lease liability and finance cost to amortize the financial costs related to such leases over the lease period. The lease liability is classified as borrowings, see note 22 for details.

1.22 Segment reporting

1.23 Events after the balance sheet date

New information regarding the Group’s positions at the balance sheet date is taken into account in the preparation of the annual financial statements. Events which occur after the balance sheet date that do not affect the Group’s position at the balance sheet date, but which will affect the Group’s position in the future, are stated if significant.

Note 2

Financial risk

The Group’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks; market risk (including currency risk, interest rate risk and price risk), credit risk and liquidity risk. The Group’s overall risk management program focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to minimize potential adverse effects on the Group’s financial performance. The Group uses derivative financial instruments to hedge certain risk exposures.

Risk management is carried out by a central treasury department (Group treasury) under policies approved by the Board of Directors. Group treasury identifies evaluates and hedges financial risk in close co-operation with the Group’s operating units. The Board provides principles for overall risk management such as foreign currency risk, interest rate risk, credit risk, use of derivative financial instruments and investment of excess liquidity.

Market risk

Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices, such as foreign exchange rates, jet-fuel prices and interest rates will affect the Group’s income or value of its holdings of financial instruments.

Foreign Currency Risk

A substantial part of the Group’s expenses are denominated in foreign currency. The Group’s leases, aircraft borrowings, maintenance, jet-fuel and related expenses are mainly denominated in USD, and a share of airplane operation expenses are denominated in EUR. Foreign currency risk arises from future commercial transactions, recognised assets and liabilities and net investments in foreign operations. In order to reduce currency risk, the Group has a mandate to hedge up to 100% of its currency exposure over the next 12 months. The hedging consists of forward currency contracts and flexible forwards.

Occasionally the Group designates certain forward foreign currency contracts as hedging instruments to hedge the fair value of currency risk in unrecognised firm commitments.

By calculating sensitivity on foreign currency risk in USD using USD and jet-fuel prices as interdependent variables on operating income, a weakening/strengthening in NOK by 1% against USD dollar, pre-tax profit and pre-tax equity effect for 2009 would have been MNOK 28.7 (2008:MNOK 31) lower/higher. This calculation is based on estimated fuel consumption over the next 12 months, estimated net outflow of USD over the next 12 months, estimated average jet-fuel price and estimated average USD/NOK exchange rate.

The Group has investments in operations in Sweden and Poland, whose net assets are exposed to foreign currency translation risk. Currency exposure arising from the net assets of the Group’s foreign operations is regarded as immaterial for the Group, and currency variances are not hedged.

Interest rate risk

Jet-fuel prices

Expenses for jet-fuel represents a substantial part of the Group’s operating costs, and fluctuations in the jet-fuel prices influence the projected cash flows. The objective of the jet-fuel price risk management policy is to provide protection against significant and sudden increases in jet-fuel prices whilst retaining access to price reductions. The Group manages jet-fuel price risk using fuel derivatives. Management has a mandate to hedge up to 100 % of its expected consumption over the next 12 months with forward commodity contracts.

The Group holds forward commodity contracts to hedge jet-fuel price risk. Such derivative contracts affect the financial statements through unrealized gains/losses from jet-fuel prices. If jet-fuel price had increased/decreased by 1% with all other variables held constant, pre-tax profit for the year would have been MNOK 21.3 (2008: MNOK 2) higher/lower, as a result of unrealized gains/losses on price changes on forward commodity contracts held at the balance sheet date.

Credit risk

Credit risk is managed on group basis. Credit risk arises from cash and cash equivalents, derivative financial instruments and deposits with banks and financial institutions, as well as credit exposures to travel agencies and commercial customers, including outstanding receivables and committed transactions. The utilisation of credit limits is regularly monitored. The Group’s policy is to maintain credit sales at a minimum level. Sales to private customers are settled in cash or using major credit card companies.

For a part of the Group’s sales, customers pay at the time of booking while Norwegian receive the actual payments from the credit card companies, or acquires, are received at a later point in time. Delayed payments from credit card companies vary between credit card brands. The risk arising from receivables on credit card companies or credit card acquires are monitored closely.

There are re-invoicing of maintenance costs on aircraft to leasing companies, and Norwegian regularly evaluates and assesses the value of these credits. See note 20 for further disclosure on credit risk.

Liquidity risk

Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash and marketable securities, the availability of funding through an adequate amount of committed credit facilities and the ability to close out market positions.

The management monitors rolling forecasts of the Group’s liquidity reserve, cash and cash equivalents (see note 24) on the basis of expected cash flow. This is generally carried out at the local level in the operating companies of the Group in accordance with practice and limits set by the Group. In addition, the Group's liquidity management policy involves projecting cash flows in major currencies and considering the level of liquid assets necessary to monitor balance sheet liquidity ratios against internal and external regulatory requirements and maintaining debt financing plans.

The table below analyses the maturity profile of the Group’s financial liabilities at the balance sheet date. The amounts disclosed are the contractual undiscounted cash flows;

Capital risk management

The Group’s capital management policy is to maintain a capital structure which meets the demands of operations, reducing cost of capital, risk factors in the industry, company specific risk and future investments planned by the Group. The Group will at all times adjust debt and equity to maintain and secure optimal capital structure by continuously monitoring the gearing ratio of the Group. This ratio is calculated as net debt divided by total capital. Net debt is calculated as total borrowings (including current and non-current borrowings less cash and cash equivalents as shown in the consolidated balance sheet). Total capital is calculated as equity as shown in the consolidated balance sheet plus net debt.

The gearing ratios at 31 December 2009 and 2008 were as follows;

Fair value estimation

Financial instruments that are measured in the balance sheet at fair value, requires disclosure of fair value measurements by level of the following fair value measurement hierarchy:

Level 1

The fair value of financial instruments traded in active markets is based on quoted market prices at the balance sheet date. A market is regarded as active if quoted prices are readily and regularly available and represent actual and regularly occurring market transactions on an arm’s length basis.

Level 2

The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market is determined by using valuation techniques. These valuation techniques maximise the use of observable market data where it is available and rely as little as possible on entity specific estimates. Financial instruments in level 2 include forward contracts classified as derivatives. The fair values of forward foreign currency contracts and forward commodities contracts are determined using forward prices and rates at the balance sheet date, with the resulting value discounted back to present value.

Level 3

If one or more of the significant inputs are not based on observable market data, specific valuation techniques are used. Financial instruments included in the level 3 valuation technique relates to investment in unlisted shares in Silver Pensjonsforsikring classified as available-for-sale financial assets. See note 20 for additional details on available-for-sale financial assets.

Remuneration to the Board of Directors and Executive Management

Remuneration to the Board of Directors

Total remuneration paid to the Board in 2009 was MNOK 0.7. The Chairman of the Board, Bjørn Kise, received MNOK 0.2. There were no bonuses or other forms of compensation paid to the Board members in 2009.

Directive of remuneration to the CEO and the Executive Management

The principles for leadership remuneration in Norwegian Air Shuttle ASA are to stimulate a strong and lasting profit oriented culture. The total compensation level should be competitive, however, not market leading compared to similar organizations. The Board defines the remuneration to the CEO, and the guidelines for remuneration to the Executive Management. The remuneration to the Board and the Executive Management must not have negative effects for the Group, nor damage the reputation and standing of the Group in the public eye. There have been no changes in the guidelines or principles for management remuneration during the year. The actual remuneration in 2009 was consistent with the guidelines and principles.

Compensation to the Executive Management should primarily consist of fixed yearly salary with additional compensations such as a company car, free telephone, internet and newspapers, and standard pension and insurance plan. Executive Management is also a part of the Group’s stock option plan.

The CEO does not receive compensation in form of performance based salary or bonuses. The Executive Management can on an individual basis be awarded special compensation for profit enhancing projects.

The Executive Management is part of the Group’s collective pension plan for salary up to 12 G, which applies to all employees. Senior Management has no special rights in the event of termination of employment.

Other intangible assets and goodwill are related to the purchase of Norwegian Air Shuttle Sweden AB on 31 July 2007. Other intangible assets from business combinations consist of estimated fair value of brand name, charter operations, slots and the Air Operating Certificate. Other intangible assets also consist of intellectual property rights which are related to purchases of internet domains. The Group has developed web portals in Norway, Sweden and Denmark.

Impairment testing of goodwill and intangible assets

The Group tests goodwill and assets with indefinite useful lives annually at year end for impairment. Intangible assets with definite lives are tested for impairment if indicators of impairment are identified.

The method used to estimate the recoverable amount is value in use, based on discounted cash flow analysis. The analysis reflects the cash flow projections in the financial business plan covering the next year approved by Senior Management. In addition, the calculation includes estimated cash flows for the next 5 years. Key assumptions used in the calculation are growth rates, operating costs, terminal value and discount rate. Cash flow beyond the 5 year period is extrapolated with a long term growth rate. Estimated cash flow and discount rate is after tax.

Discount rate

The discount rate used is 11.6% and is based on Weighted Average Cost of Capital (WACC). The cost of the Group's debt and equity capital, weighted accordingly to reflect its capital structure, gives its weighted average cost of capital. The WACC rates used to discount the future cash flows are based on market risk free interest rate adjusted for inflation differential and also take into account the debt premium, market risk premium, gearing corporate tax rate and asset beta. An increase of the discount rate by 1% will not result in impairment of goodwill.

Growth rates

The basis for determining future growth rate is next year management approved budget, and an estimated sales growth rate based on planned production increase, expansion of route portfolio and expected increase in market share.

Operating costs

The operating costs are estimated based on the budget period and on estimated future development. Consideration is taken to committed operations efficiency programs, and the planned operating expansion. Changes in the outcome of these initiatives may affect future estimated operating costs. A permanent increase of 1% of total costs, with all other assumptions remaining equal, will not result in impairment of assets.

Terminal value

A growth rate of 2% is used in determining cash flow beyond the 5 year period.

Sensitivity

At 31 December 2009, the value in use of the Group was significantly higher than the carrying amount of its goodwill and intangible assets. The impairment calculation is not particularly sensitive to changes in assumptions.

At 31 December 2009, the Group operated a total of 46 aircraft: 7 owned and 39 leased under operational leases. Operational leases are detailed in note 12.

Aircraft

The group acquired 2 Boeing 737-800 NG aircraft during 2009. Aircraft is decomposed and depreciated over the economic useful life of each component on a straight-line basis. The body of the aircraft is depreciated based on economic useful years, while other components are based on airborne hours and cycles.

The residual value is MNOK 206.1 in total for all owned aircraft and deducted from the depreciable amount of the body of the aircraft. The life expectancy of the body of the aircraft is 25 years on 737-800 and 30 years on 737-300, and the economic life of the owned aircraft is 25 or 30 years less the age of the aircraft at time of purchase.

Installations on leased aircraft

The installations on the leased aircraft include cabin interior modifications and other improvements to the aircraft after lease commencement. The capitalized value is depreciated over the remainder of the aircraft lease, which is between 1-8 years. Linear depreciation is applied and residual value is NOK 0. In 2009 several engines on the leased aircraft were in overhaul, and replacement costs for life limited parts were capitalized in the extent that the costs were improvements to the engines exceeding the requirements specified in the leasing contracts. These components are depreciated at a defined rate per engine cycle, limited to the remainder of the aircraft lease.

Spare parts

Spare parts consist of rotable and repairable parts for aircraft and are depreciated over their useful life. Useful life of spare parts is between 4-10 years. Linear depreciation is applied and 25% of the acquisition cost is calculated as residual value.

Buildings

Buildings consist of 3 apartments in Berlin, purchased in 2007 for the purpose of housing crew and trainees stationed in Berlin on temporary basis. The asset is carried at acquisition cost. The residual value is estimated to equal the acquisition cost.

Prepayments on Boeing contract

In 2007, the Group entered into a purchase contract on 42 new 737-800 aircraft with Boeing Corporation, with an option on 42 additional aircraft. Two aircraft have been delivered in 2009, and 6 purchase options have been exercised. 46 aircraft will be delivered i between 2010 and 2014. Until delivery of the aircraft, the Group will make prepayments to Boeing, following a defined prepayment schedule. The Group capitalizes borrowing costs incurred for the construction of qualifying assets during the period of time that is required to complete the aircraft. Borrowing costs of MNOK 33.5 (2008: MNOK 30.5) have been capitalized during the year. Average capitalization rate of 7.66% (2007: 8.21%) was used. The Group applied fair value hedge accounting of unrecognized firm commitment for the three first quarters of 2008. The hedging relationship was terminated at 16 October 2008. The remaining fair value of the unrecognized firm commitment of MNOK 8.7 at the date of termination was capitalized as a part of the prepayments. Prepayments are not depreciated until the aircraft is delivered and ready to use. The value of prepayments is tested for impairment annually.

Financial lease asset

In 2009, the Group entered into lease agreements related to de-ice equipment and electronic flight bag equipment. The lease agreements are classified as financial leases as all risks and rewards are transferred to the Group after the end of the lease agreement. The financial lease assets are depreciated over their economic useful lives. De-ice equipment is depreciated over 20 years, while electronic flight bag equipment is depreciated over 4 years. Residual value of financial lease assets is 0.

Impairment of tangible assets

In 2009 and 2008 the management determined that the total operations of the Group were its cash generating unit, and as such, there is only one operational segment in the Group. Impairment testing of tangible assets are covered by impairment testing on the whole Group, see note 10 for details.

No impairment losses have been recognized in 2009.

For information regarding assets pledged as collateral for debt, see note 23.

Note 12

Operating leases

The lease agreements for the Boeing 737 aircraft vary between 3 to 8 years with an option to prolong certain agreements. 6 of the aircraft were delivered in 2002, 2 aircraft in 2003, 4 aircraft in 2004, 2 aircraft in 2005, 6 aircraft in 2006, 2 aircraft in 2007, 8 aircraft in 2008 and 9 aircraft in 2009. Renegotiations have resulted in prolonging some of the short-term leases. The contracts for 5 of the aircraft expire in 2010 and for 8 of the aircraft in 2011. The remaining contracts expire in 2012 or later.

Leasing costs expensed on aircraft lease within operational expenses was MNOK 574.0 in 2009 (2008: MNOK 426.6)

In addition, the Group leases 13 cars, and 9 properties in Oslo, Stavanger, Stockholm, Copenhagen and Warsaw. Leasing costs related to cars and properties expensed in other operating expenses in 2009 was MNOK 21.2 (MNOK 19.1 in 2008)
