Norwegian hedges USD/NOK to counter foreign currency risk exposure on USD denominated borrowings translated to the prevailing currency rate at each balance sheet date. Hedge gains and losses are according to IFRS recognized under operating expenses (“other losses/ (gains)) while foreign currency gains and losses from translation of USD denominated borrowings are recognized under financial items (Net foreign exchange (loss) or gain). For the above reason CASK excludes losses and gains from “other losses/ (gains)” to better reflect the actual cost development.

Aiming for the cost “Comfort Zone”

  • Cost per available seat kilometer is an industry-wide cost level indicator often referred to as “CASK”. Usually represented as operating expenses before depreciation and amortization (EBITDA level) over produced seat kilometers (ASK).
  • Finnair: Non-airline operating expenses calculated by deducting “Airline Business” expenses as presented in the “Business segment data” from total operating expenses.
  • SAS Group: Revenues from mail & freight, ground handling services, technical maintenance and terminal & forwarding services as presented in the 2011 annual report are classified as “non-airline” and are deducted from airline operating expenses.
  • SAS Group’s figures are unadjusted for “restructuring costs” as it has been a constant fixture in most financial statements the last decade.
  • Foreign exchange rates used are equivalent to the daily average rates corresponding to the reporting periods and as stated by the Central Bank of Norway
