At the same percentage price decrease, the sensitive analysis states variations of the same value as in the above table but with the opposite sign.

Applied for the sensitivity analysis of commodity risk hedging instruments variations of crude oil, gas and products prices were calculated based on their historical volatility in 2021.

The influence of changes in prices was presented on annual basis.

In case of derivatives, the influence of crude oil, gas and products prices variations on fair value were examined at constant level of currency rates.
