Rana Gruber is subject to fluctuations in the freight market through a deduction
of freight costs in the realized price of hematite products, and these positions
will help reduce the volatility in Rana Gruber's cash flow going forward.
Unrealized effects will be recognized in other financial gains/(losses) in the
P&L. Positions that are not relevant for the quarter will be adjusted in the
adjusted net profit, similar to positions related to iron ore and FX going
forward.
