I2 Reserves

Operating reserve

The operating reserve reflects accumulated profits to date.

Hedging reserve

The hedging reserve is used to record the effective portion of cumulative net changes in the fair value of cash flow hedging instruments, related to hedged transactions that have not yet occurred (net of tax). During the current year, losses of £6 million were removed from the hedging reserve and debited to income in the consolidated expenditure statement (2025: £17 million losses).

Translation reserve

The translation reserve is used to record exchange differences arising from the retranslation of the net assets and results of overseas subsidiaries. This includes all foreign exchange differences arising since the transition to IFRS, from the translation of the financial statements of foreign operations, as well as from the translation of liabilities that hedge the BBC’s net investment in foreign subsidiaries.

Other reserves

Other reserves include the fair value of put option liabilities arising on acquisition of subsidiaries and the difference between the cost of investment and net assets of entities acquired which are held under common control.
