Hedge to Manage Risk, Reduce Costs and Leverage Working Capital. Let s imagine that on 1 September, a European-based company agrees to buy computer equipment from a U.S. manufacturer, and payment of U.S.$100 million is due upon delivery on 1 December. Cash FX and FX Futures Hedging Examples Cash Between those dates, the price of the Euro in relation to the U.S. dollar will fluctuate. What if the value of the Euro were to fall significantly, that is, the exchange rate in USD per EUR falls from 1.3000 to 1.2000? Cost of USD 100M in EUR on 1 Sept Cost of USD 100M in EUR on 1 Dec Profit / Loss 76.923 million 83.333 million 6.410 million $7.692 million Cost of USD 100M in EUR on 1 Sept 76.923 million Cost of USD 100M in EUR on 1 Dec 83.333 million How could the company hedge against FX exposure? Sell Euros on 1 September needed for a purchase of U.S. dollars to buy U.S. computers: This would have eliminated any currency risk but would also have tied up nearly 77 million for three months (assuming the exchange rate at that date was 1.3000 per Euro). Hedge the exposure of the lower Euro by selling futures contracts: By selling 616 Euro FX futures contracts (each contract represents an underlying value of 125,000), the EUR-based company locks in the price it receives in U.S. dollars for Euros and fixes the ultimate cost of the new U.S. computer equipment. Eight contracts represent 1 million (Euros), therefore, 616 contracts represent 77,000,000 (= 616 contracts x 125,000 per contract). The short futures position gains value in U.S. dollars as the price falls from 1.3000 to 1.2000, for a difference of 0.1000 USD per EUR. Given each futures contract is worth 125,000 and 616 contracts were sold as a hedge, the gain in U.S. dollars is U.S. $7.700 million (= 125,000 per contract x 616 contracts x U.S. $0.1000 per ). This profit offsets almost exactly the increased cost of the U.S. $100 million (original 76.923 million now buys only U.S. $92.308 million, but when the U.S. $7.700 million futures hedge profit is added, the EUR-based company has the needed U.S. $100 million). Futures position (Short 616 / Hedge Results) Price of EUR Futures on 1 Sept Price of EUR Futures on 1 Dec Original 76.923 million at $1.2000 per EUR buys $92.308 million $92.308 million plus $7.700 million hedge profit more than covers $100 million cost of U.S. computers Net Profit / Loss $1.3000 per EUR $1.2000 per EUR Profit / Loss x 616 Contracts $7.700 million $100.008 million +$0.008 million Selling futures is a more efficient use of capital because a qualified hedger with a futures account is only required to put up a percentage of the full contract value (a performance bond/margin) to buy or sell the futures contract about $5,000 per contract (U.S. $3.08 million) to hedge U.S. $100 million in currency risk.
