Embedded Derivatives
As described in Note 2 under Revenue Recognition, our concentrate sales contracts provide for provisional pricing based on the LME price at the time of shipment as specified in the contract. Sales contracts with a provisional sales price contain an embedded derivative (i.e., the price settlement mechanism that is settled after the time of delivery) that is required to be bifurcated from the host contract. The host contract is the sale of the metals contained in the concentrates at the then-current LME price as defined in the contract. Mark-to-market price fluctuations recorded through the settlement date are reflected in revenues for sales contracts. Our embedded derivatives at December 31, 2018 and 2017, were not significant to the financial statements.
