Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
Certain statements included herein constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 that involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Certain such forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as “believes,” “expects,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “seeks,” “scheduled,” or “anticipates” or similar expressions or the negative thereof or other variations thereof or comparable terminology, or by discussions of strategy, plans, or intentions. In addition, all information included herein with respect to projected or future results of operations, cash flows, financial condition, financial performance, or other financial or statistical matters constitute forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements are necessarily dependent on assumptions, data, or methods that may be incorrect or imprecise and that may be incapable of being realized. The following factors, among others, could cause actual results and other matters to differ materially from those in such forward-looking statements:

the duration and severity of supply chain disruptions on the production of new vehicles and dealer inventory levels;
declines in the financial condition or performance of Honda Motor Co., Ltd. or the sales of Honda or Acura products;
changes in economic and general business conditions, both domestically and internationally, including inflationary pressures, increases in interest rates and changes in international trade policy;
fluctuations in interest rates and currency exchange rates;
the failure of our customers, dealers or counterparties to meet the terms of any contracts with us, or otherwise fail to perform as agreed;
our inability to recover the estimated residual value of leased vehicles at the end of their lease terms;
changes or disruption in our funding sources or access to the capital markets;
changes in our, or Honda Motor Co., Ltd.’s, credit ratings;
increases in competition from other financial institutions seeking to increase their share of financing of Honda and Acura products;
the impact of pandemics, epidemics, and other public health crises, such as COVID-19 and efforts to contain them on our operations, liquidity and financial condition;
changes in laws and regulations, including the result of financial services legislation, and related costs;
changes in accounting standards;
a failure or interruption in our operations; and
a security breach or cyber attack.
Additional information regarding these and other risks and uncertainties to which our business is subject to is contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2023 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 23, 2023. Readers of this Quarterly Report should review the information contained in that report, and in any subsequent reports that we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission as such risks and uncertainties may be amended, supplemented or superseded from time to time.

The amendments eliminate the accounting guidance for troubled debt restructurings by creditors that have adopted ASU 2016-13 and enhance the disclosure requirements for certain loan refinancings and restructurings when borrowers are experiencing financial difficulty. In addition, the amendments require the disclosure of current-period gross writeoffswrite-offs for financing receivables by year of origination in the vintage disclosures. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards
ASUs issued but not yet adopted were assessed and determined to be either not applicable or not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

The allowance for credit losses increased during the threesix months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2023 primarily due to the increase in acquisitionexpected credit losses recognized on the high volume of retail loansloan acquisitions during the period.
Delinquencies
Collection experience provides an indication of the credit quality of finance receivables. For retail loans, delinquencies are a good predictor of charge-offs in the near term. The likelihood of accounts charging off is significantly higher once an account becomes 60 days delinquent. Retail loans are considered delinquent if more than 10% of a scheduled payment is contractually past due on a cumulative basis. Dealer loans are considered delinquent when any payment is contractually past due. The following is an aging analysis of past due finance receivables:

Credit Quality Indicators
Credit losses are an expected cost of extending credit. The majority of our credit risk is with consumer financing and to a lesser extent with dealer financing. Exposure to credit risk in retail loans is managed through regular monitoring and adjusting of underwriting standards, pricing of contracts for expected losses, and focusing collection efforts to minimize losses. Exposure to credit risk for dealers is managed through ongoing reviews of their financial condition.
Retail Loan Segment
The Company utilizes proprietary credit scoring systems to evaluate the credit risk of applicants and assign internal credit grades at origination. Factors used to develop a customer’s credit grade include the terms of the contract, the loan-to-value ratio, the customer’s debt ratios, and credit bureau attributes such as the number of trade lines, utilization ratio, and number of credit inquiries. Different scorecards are utilized depending on the type of product financed. The Company regularly reviews and analyzes the performance of the consumer-financing portfolio to ensure the effectiveness of underwriting guidelines, purchasing criteria and scorecard predictability of customers. Internal credit grades are determined only at the time of origination and are not reassessed during the life of the contract. The following describes the internal credit grade ratings.

A - Borrowers classified as very low credit risks. Based on their application and credit bureau report, they have the ability to pay and have shown a willingness to pay. Generally, A credit borrowers have an extensive credit history, an excellent payment record and extensive financial resources.

B - Borrowers classified as relatively low credit risks. Based on their application and credit bureau report, they have the ability to pay and have shown a willingness to pay. Generally, B credit borrowers may have one or more conditions that could reduce the internal credit score, such as a shorter credit history or a minor credit weakness.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

C - Borrowers classified as moderate credit risks. Based on their application and credit bureau report, they may have limited financial resources, limited credit history, or a weakness in credit history.

D - Borrowers classified as relatively higher credit risks. Based on their application and credit bureau report, they may have very limited financial resources, very limited or no credit history, or a poor credit history.

Others - Borrowers, including businesses, without credit bureau reports.

Dealer Loan Segment
The Company utilizes an internal risk rating system to evaluate dealer credit risk. Dealerships are assigned an internal risk rating based on an assessment of their financial condition and other factors. Factors including liquidity, financial strength, management effectiveness, and operating efficiency are evaluated when assessing their financial condition. Financing limits and interest rates are based upon these risk ratings. Monitoring activities including financial reviews and inventory inspections are performed more frequently for dealerships with weaker risk ratings. The financial conditions of dealerships are reviewed and their risk ratings are updated at least annually.
Dealerships have been divided into the following groups:
Group I - Dealerships in the strongest internal risk rating tier
Group II - Dealerships with internal risk ratings below the strongest tier
Group III - Dealerships with impaired loans

Loan Modifications
The contractual terms of loans may be modified when borrowers are experiencing financial difficulties in an effort to mitigate losses. There were no dealer loans that were modified for dealers experiencing financial difficulties during the threesix months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2023. Payment deferrals are granted on retail loans, however the delays in payments are considered insignificant since the number of deferred payments are limited and interest continues to accrue during the deferral period. Starting in April 2023, the Company began granting term extensions on retail loans in the United States. Term extensions extend the maturity date of the loan which reduces the monthly payments over the remaining extended term of the loan. Term extensions do not change the contractual interest rates or reduce the outstanding principal balances. During the threesix months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2023, term extensions were not material to the Company’s consolidated financial statement. Retail loans may also be modified in reorganization proceedings pursuant to the U.S. Bankruptcy Code which may include interest rate adjustments, term extensions, and principal forgiveness. Retail loans modified under bankruptcy protection were not material to the Company’s consolidated financial statements during the threesix months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2023.
Prior to the adoption of ASU 2022-2,2022-02, there were no dealer loans during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2023 that were considered troubled debt restructurings. Retail loans modified under bankruptcy protection were considered troubled debt restructurings but were not material to the Company’s consolidated financial statements during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2023.

The fair value of derivative instruments is subject to the fluctuations in market interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates. Since the Company has elected not to apply hedge accounting, the volatility in the changes in fair value of these derivative instruments is recognized in earnings. All settlements of derivative instruments are presented within cash flows from operating activities in the consolidated statements of cash flows.
These derivative instruments also contain an element of credit risk in the event the counterparties are unable to meet the terms of the agreements. However, the Company minimizes the risk exposure by limiting the counterparties to major financial institutions that meet established credit guidelines. In the event of default, all counterparties are subject to legally enforceable master netting agreements. In Canada, HCFI is a party to reciprocal credit support agreements that require posting of cash collateral to mitigate counterparty credit risk on derivative positions. Posted collateral is recognized in other assets and held collateral is recognized in other liabilities.

Note 8. Commitments and Contingencies
Operating Leases
The Company leases certain premises and equipment through operating leases. AHFC leases its premises and equipment from AHM and third parties, and HCFI leases its premises from HCI.
Many of the Company's leases contain renewal options, and generally have no residual value guarantees or material covenants. When it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise the option to renew a lease, the Company will include the renewal option in the evaluation of the lease term. The Company has elected not to recognize right-of-use assets or lease liabilities for leases with a lease term of less than one year. As most of the Company's leases do not provide an implicit rate, the incremental borrowing rate is used in determining the present value of lease payments. The right-of-use assets in operating lease arrangements are reported in other assets on the Company's consolidated balance sheets.
Operating lease liabilities are reported in other liabilities on the Company's consolidated balance sheets. At JuneSeptember 30, 2023, maturities of operating lease liabilities were as follows:
Twelve-month periods ending June 30,(U.S. dollars in millions)

Lease expense under operating leases was $2$3 million for both the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2023 and 2022, and $5 million for both the six months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022. Rent expense is included within general and administrative expenses.
As of JuneSeptember 30, 2023, the weighted average remaining lease term for operating leases was 8.17.9 years and the weighted average remaining discount rate for operating leases was 2.85%3%.
Revolving Lines of Credit to Dealerships
The Company extends commercial revolving lines of credit to dealerships to support their business activities including facilities refurbishment and general working capital requirements. The amounts borrowed are generally secured by the assets of the borrowing entity. The unused balance of commercial revolving lines of credit was $566$636 million as of JuneSeptember 30, 2023. The Company also has commitments to finance the construction of auto dealership facilities. The remaining unfunded balance for these construction loans was $1$2 million as of JuneSeptember 30, 2023.

Legal Proceedings and Regulatory Matters
The Company establishes accruals for legal claims when payments associated with the claims become probable and the costs can be reasonably estimated. When able, the Company will determine estimates of reasonably possible loss or range of loss, whether in excess of any related accrued liability or where there is no accrued liability. Given the inherent uncertainty associated with legal matters, the actual costs of resolving legal claims and associated costs of defense may be substantially higher or lower than the amounts for which accruals have been established.
The Company is involved, in the ordinary course of business, in various legal proceedings including claims of individual customers and purported class action lawsuits. Certain of these actions are similar to suits filed against other financial institutions and captive finance companies concerning business practices and policies. The Company is also subject to regulation, supervision, and licensing under various federal, state, provincial, and local statutes, ordinances and regulations which involve governmental reviews and inquiries from time to time. Based on available information and established accruals, management does not believe it is reasonably possible that the results of these proceedings, in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.


Note 9. Securitizations and Variable Interest Entities (VIE)
The Company utilizes SPEs for its asset-backed securitizations and these SPEs are considered VIEs, which are required to be consolidated by their primary beneficiary. The Company is considered to be the primary beneficiary of these SPEs due to (i) the power to direct the activities of the SPEs that most significantly impact the SPEs’ economic performance through the Company's role as servicer, and (ii) the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive residual returns that could potentially be significant to the SPEs through the subordinated certificates and residual interest retained. The debt securities issued by the SPEs to third-party investors along with the assets of the SPEs are included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
During the threesix months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company issued notes through asset-backed securitizations, which were accounted for as secured financing transactions totaling $1.5$3.6 billion whichand $1.0 billion, respectively. The notes were secured by assets with an initial balance of $1.6 billion. During the three months ended June 30, 2022, the Company did not issue notes through asset-backed securitizations.$3.9 billion and $1.1 billion, respectively.
The table below presents the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities of consolidated SPEs as they are reported in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. All amounts exclude intercompany balances, which have been eliminated upon consolidation. Investors in notes issued by a SPE only have recourse to the assets of such SPE and do not have recourse to the assets of AHFC, HCFI, or its other subsidiaries or to other SPEs. The assets of SPEs are the only source of funds for repayment on the notes.

Note 12. Fair Value Measurements
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value hierarchy prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels. Level 1 inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date. Level 2 inputs are those other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). Nonperformance risk is also required to be reflected in the fair value measurement, including an entity’s own credit standing when measuring the fair value of a liability.

Recurring Fair Value Measurements
The following tables summarize the fair value hierarchy of assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

The valuation techniques used in measuring assets and liabilities at fair value on a recurring basis are described below:
Derivative Instruments
The Company’s derivatives are transacted in over-the-counter markets and quoted market prices are not readily available. The Company uses third-party developed valuation models to value derivative instruments. These models estimate fair values using discounted cash flow modeling techniques, which utilize the contractual terms of the derivative instruments and market-based inputs, including interest rates and foreign exchange rates. Discount rates incorporate counterparty and HMC specific credit default spreads to reflect nonperformance risk.
The Company’s derivative instruments are classified as Level 2 since all significant inputs are observable and do not require management judgment. There were no transfers between fair value hierarchy levels during the threesix months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2023 and 2022. Refer to Note 5 for additional information on derivative instruments.

Nonrecurring Fair Value Measurements
The following tables summarize nonrecurring fair value measurements recognized for assets still held at the end of the reporting periods presented:

The following describes the methodologies and assumptions used in nonrecurring fair value measurements, which relate to the application of lower of cost or fair value accounting on long-lived assets.
Vehicles Held for Disposition
Vehicles held for disposition consist of returned and repossessed vehicles. They are valued at the lower of their carrying value or estimated fair value, less estimated disposition costs. The fair value is based on current average selling prices of like vehicles at wholesale used vehicle auctions.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The following tables summarize the carrying values and fair values of the Company’s financial instruments except for those measured at fair value on a recurring basis. Certain financial instruments and all nonfinancial assets and liabilities are excluded from fair value disclosure requirements including the Company’s investment in operating leases. The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, and short termshort-term investments approximate fair values due to the short-term nature and limited credit risk of the instruments.

Note 13. Segment Information
The Company’s reportable segments are based on the two geographic regions where operating results are measured and evaluated by management: the United States and Canada.
Segment performance is evaluated using an internal measurement basis, which differs from the Company’s consolidated results prepared in accordance with GAAP. Segment performance is evaluated on a pre-tax basis before the effect of valuation adjustments on derivative instruments and revaluations of foreign currency denominated debt. Since the Company does not elect to apply hedge accounting, the impact to earnings resulting from these valuation adjustments as reported under GAAP is not representative of segment performance as evaluated by management. Realized gains and losses on derivative instruments, net of realized gains and losses on foreign currency denominated debt, are included in the measure of net revenues when evaluating segment performance.
No adjustments are made to segment performance to allocate any revenues or expenses. Financing products offered throughout the United States and Canada are substantially similar. Segment revenues from the various financing products are reported on the same basis as GAAP consolidated results.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Overview
Our primary focus, in collaboration with AHM and HCI, is to provide support for the sale of Honda and Acura products and maintain customer and dealer satisfaction and loyalty. To deliver this support effectively, we seek to maintain competitive cost of funds, efficient operations, and effective risk and compliance management. The primary factors influencing our results of operations, cash flows, and financial condition include the volume of Honda and Acura sales and the portion of those sales that we finance, our cost of funds, competition from other financial institutions, consumer credit defaults, and used motor vehicle prices.
A substantial portion of our consumer financing business is acquired through incentive financing programs sponsored by AHM and HCI. The volume of these incentive financing programs and the allocation of those programs between retail loans and leases may vary from fiscal period to fiscal period depending upon the respective marketing strategies of AHM and HCI. AHM and HCI’s marketing strategies are based in part on their business planning and control, in which we do not participate. Therefore, we cannot predict the level of incentive financing programs AHM and HCI may sponsor in the future. Our consumer financing acquisition volumes are substantially dependent on the extent to which incentive financing programs are offered. Increases in incentive financing programs generally increase our financing penetration rates, which typically results in increased financing acquisition volumes for us. The amount of subsidy payments we receive from AHM and HCI is dependent on the terms of the incentive financing programs and the interest rate environment. Subsidy payments are received upon acquisition and recognized in revenue throughout the life of the loan or lease; therefore, a significant change in the level of incentive financing programs in a fiscal period typically only has a limited impact on our results of operations for that period. The amount of subsidy income we recognize in a fiscal period is dependent on the cumulative level of subsidized contracts outstanding that were acquired through incentive financing programs.
We seek to maintain high quality consumer and dealer account portfolios, which we support with strong underwriting standards, risk-based pricing, and effective collection practices. Our cost of funds is facilitated by the diversity of our funding sources, and effective interest rate and foreign currency exchange risk management. We manage expenses to support our profitability, including adjusting staffing needs based upon our business volumes and centralizing certain functions. Additionally, we use risk and compliance management practices to optimize credit and residual value risk levels and maintain compliance with our pricing, underwriting and servicing policies at the United States, Canadian, state and provincial levels.
In our business operations, we incur costs related to funding, credit loss, residual value loss, and general and administrative expenses, among other expenses.
We analyze our operations in two business segments defined by geography: the United States and Canada. We measure the performance of our United States and Canada segments on a pre-tax basis before the effect of valuation adjustments on derivative instruments and revaluations of foreign currency denominated debt. For additional information regarding our segments, see Note 13—Segment Information of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited). The following tables and the related discussion are presented based on our geographically segmented consolidated financial statements.
References in this report to our “fiscal year 2024” and “fiscal year 2023” refer to our fiscal year ending March 31, 2024 and our fiscal year ended March 31, 2023, respectively.

Results of Operations

Operating Environment Overview
Production levels and the availability of new vehicles have continued to improve resulting in higher dealer inventory levels, dealer loan financing balances, and consumer financing acquisition volumes since the lows we experienced during the first half of fiscal year 2023. The rising interest rate environment has increased the returns on more recently acquired financing assets and our funding costs. Higher interest rates have also contributed to an increase in the demand for 72 and 84 months retail loans.
The trend in delinquencies and charge-offs we have observed over the past several quarters continued to increase which may be attributable to the negative effects of inflationary pressures, rising interest rates, and other factors affecting consumers’ ability to perform on their obligations. Used vehicle prices have softened but remain relatively strong with return rates on leased vehicles remaining at historically low levels.

Credit Risk
Credit losses are an expected cost of extending credit. The majority of our credit risk is in consumer financing and to a lesser extent in dealer financing. Credit risk of our portfolio of consumer finance receivables can be affected by general economic conditions. Adverse changes, such as a rise in unemployment or an increase in inflationary pressures, can increase the likelihood of defaults. Declines in used vehicle prices can reduce the amount of recoveries on repossessed collateral. We manage our exposure to credit risk in retail loans by monitoring and adjusting our underwriting standards, which affect the level of credit risk that we assume, pricing contracts for expected losses and focusing collection efforts to minimize losses. We manage our exposure to credit risk for dealers through ongoing reviews of their financial condition.
We are also exposed to credit risk on our portfolio of operating lease assets. We expect a portion of our operating leases to terminate prior to their scheduled maturities when lessees default on their contractual obligations. Losses are generally realized upon the disposition of the repossessed operating lease vehicles. The factors affecting credit risk on our operating leases and our management of the risk are similar to that of our consumer finance receivables.
Credit risk on dealer loans is affected primarily by the financial strength of the dealers within the portfolio, the value of collateral securing the financings, and economic and market factors that could affect the creditworthiness of dealers. We manage our exposure to credit risk in dealer financing by performing comprehensive reviews of dealers prior to establishing financing arrangements and monitoring the payment performance and creditworthiness of these dealers on an ongoing basis. In the event of default by a dealer, we seek all available legal remedies pursuant to related dealer agreements, guarantees, security interests on collateral, or liens on dealership assets. Additionally, we have agreements with AHM and HCI that provide for their repurchase of new, unused, undamaged and unregistered vehicles or equipment that have been repossessed from dealers who defaulted under the terms of their respective wholesale flooring agreements.
The allowance for credit losses is management’s estimate of lifetime expected credit losses on the amortized cost basis of finance receivables. Additional information regarding credit losses is provided in the discussion of “—Critical Accounting Estimates—Allowance for Credit Losses and Estimated Early Termination Losses on Operating Lease Assets” below.

(1)Ending and average receivable balances exclude the allowance for credit losses, unearned subvention income related to our incentive financing programs and deferred origination costs. Average receivable balances are calculated based on the average of each month’s ending receivables balance for that fiscal year.
(2)For the purposes of determining whether a contract is delinquent, payment is generally considered to have been made, in the case of (i) dealer loans, upon receipt of 100% of the payment when due and (ii) consumer finance receivables, upon receipt of 90% of the sum of the current monthly payment plus any overdue monthly payments. Delinquent amounts presented are the aggregated principal balances of delinquent finance receivables. Payments that were granted deferrals are not considered delinquent during the deferral period.

In the United States segment, we recognized a provision for credit losses on our finance receivables of $77$143 million and $19$47 million during the first quartersix months of fiscal year 2024 and 2023, respectively. The increase in provision for credit losses was primarily attributable to higher retail loan acquisitions. Expected credit losses on our retail loans also increased due to the increasing trend of delinquencies and net charge-offs above the historical lows experienced during the COVID-19 pandemic and a slight decline in overall credit quality. The increase in used vehicle financing, 72 and 84 month loans, and loan-to-value ratios for loans acquired since fiscal year 2023 contributed to the slight decline in overall credit quality. Lower incentive volumes, particularly during fiscal year 2023, also contributed to the slight decline in overall credit quality. We recognized early termination losses on operating leases of $12$40 million and a reversal of early termination losses of $1$12 million during the first quartersix months of fiscal year 2024 and 2023, respectively. We recognized earlyEarly termination losses on operating leases during the first quarter of fiscal year 2024increased due to higherthe increases in realized losses, our estimate of early termination losses. We recognized a reversallosses, and acquisition volumes. The increase in operating lease delinquencies and forecasted unemployment rates contributed to the increase in our estimate of early termination on operating leases during the first quarter of fiscal year 2024 due to lower than expected realized losses.
In the Canada segment, we recognized a provision for credit losses of $2$5 million on our finance receivables during both the first quartersix months of fiscal year 2024 and 2023. We recognized early termination losses on operating leases of less than $1 million during the first quartersix months of fiscal year 2024 and a reversal of early termination losses of less than $1 million during the same period in fiscal year 2023.

Lease Residual Value Risk
Contractual residual values of lease vehicles are determined at lease inception based on our expectations of used vehicle values at the end of their lease term. Lease customers have the option at the end of the lease term to return the vehicle to the dealer or to buy the vehicle at the contractual residual value (or if purchased prior to lease maturity, for the outstanding contractual balance). Returned lease vehicles can be purchased by the grounding dealer at the contractual residual value (or if purchased prior to lease maturity, for the outstanding contractual balance) or a market based price. Returned lease vehicles that are not purchased by the grounding dealers are sold through online and physical auctions. We are exposed to a risk of loss on the disposition of returned lease vehicles if the market values of leased vehicles at the end of their lease terms are less than their contractual residual values.
Operating lease vehicles are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the lease term to the lower of contract residual values or estimated end of term residual values. Adjustments to estimated end of term residual values are made prospectively on a straight-line basis over the remaining lease term. A review for impairment of our operating lease assets is performed whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying values may not be recoverable. If impairment conditions are met, impairment losses are measured by the amount carrying values exceed their fair values. We did not recognize impairment losses due to declines in estimated residual values during the first quartersix months of fiscal year 2024. Additional information regarding lease residual values is provided in the discussion of “—Critical Accounting EstimatesEstimated End of Term Residual Values” below.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our liquidity strategy is to fund current and future obligations through our cash flows from operations and our diversified funding programs in a cost and risk effective manner. Our cash flows are generally impacted by cash requirements related to the volume of finance receivable and operating lease acquisitions and various operating and funding costs incurred, which are largely funded through payments received on our assets and our funding sources outlined below. As noted, the levels of incentive financing sponsored by AHM and HCI can impact our financial results and liquidity from period to period. Increases or decreases in incentive financing programs typically increase or decrease our financing penetration rates, respectively, which result in increased or decreased acquisition volumes and increased or decreased liquidity needs, respectively. At acquisition, we receive the subsidy payments, which reduce the cost of consumer loan and lease contracts acquired, and we recognize such payments as revenue over the term of the loan or lease.
In an effort to minimize liquidity risk and interest rate risk and the resulting negative effects on our margins, results of operations and cash flows, our funding strategy incorporates investor diversification and the utilization of multiple funding sources including commercial paper, medium-term notes, bank loans and asset-backed securities. We incorporate a funding strategy that takes into consideration factors such as the interest rate environment, domestic and foreign capital market conditions, maturity profiles, and economic conditions. We believe that our funding sources, combined with cash provided by operating and investing activities, will provide sufficient liquidity for us to meet our debt service and working capital requirements over the next twelve months.

Bank Loans
During the threesix months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2023, neither AHFC nor HCFI entereddid not enter into any new loan agreement. As of JuneSeptember 30, 2023, we had bank loans denominated in U.S. dollars and Canadian dollars with floating interest rates, in principal amounts ranging from $74 million to $500 million. As of September 30, 2023, the remaining maturities of all bank loans outstanding ranged from 87181 days to approximately 3.83.5 years. The weighted average remaining maturity on all bank loans was 2.32.2 years as of JuneSeptember 30, 2023.
41


Our bank loans contain customary restrictive covenants, including limitations on liens, mergers, consolidations and asset sales, and a financial covenant that requires us to maintain positive consolidated tangible net worth. In addition to other customary events of default, the bank loans include cross-default provisions and provisions for default if HMC does not maintain ownership, whether directly or indirectly, of at least 80% of the outstanding capital stock of AHFC or HCFI, as applicable. All of these covenants and events of default are subject to important limitations and exceptions under the agreements governing the bank loans. As of JuneSeptember 30, 2023, management believes that AHFC and HCFI were in compliance with all covenants contained in our bank loan agreements.
Public MTN Program
AHFC is a well-known seasoned issuer under SEC rules and issues Public MTNs pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-3 filed with the SEC. In August 2022, AHFC renewed its Public MTN program by filing a registration statement with the SEC under which it may issue from time to time up to $30.0 billion aggregate principal amount of Public MTNs, which includes the issuance of foreign currency denominated notes into international markets. The aggregate principal amount of MTNs offered under this program may be increased from time to time.
The Public MTNs may have original maturities of 9 months or more from the date of issue, may be interest bearing with either fixed or floating interest rates, or may be discounted notes. During the threesix months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2023, AHFC issued $2.3$1.4 billion of floating rate notes ranging from 11 months to 18 months. AHFC also issued $5.3 billion of fixed rate notes ranging from 2 years to 7 years.years in USD, EUR and GBP. The weighted average remaining maturities of all Public MTNs was 2.42.6 years as of JuneSeptember 30, 2023.
The Public MTNs are issued pursuant to an indenture, which requires AHFC to comply with certain covenants, including negative pledge provisions and restrictions on AHFC’s ability to merge, consolidate or transfer substantially all of its assets or the assets of its subsidiaries, and includes customary events of default. As of JuneSeptember 30, 2023, management believes that AHFC was in compliance with all covenants under the indenture.

Secured Debt
Asset-Backed Securities
We enter into securitization transactions for funding purposes. Our securitization transactions involve transferring pools of retail loans and operating leases to bankruptcy-remote special purpose entities (SPEs). The SPEs are established to accommodate securitization structures, which have the limited purpose of acquiring assets, issuing asset-backed securities, and making payments on the securities. Assets transferred to SPEs are considered legally isolated from us and the claims of our creditors. We continue to service the retail loans and operating leases transferred to the SPEs. Investors in the notes issued by a SPE only have recourse to the assets of such SPE and do not have recourse to the assets of AHFC, HCFI, or our other subsidiaries or to other SPEs. The assets of SPEs are the only source of funds for repayment on the notes.
Our securitizations are structured to provide credit enhancements to investors in the notes issued by the SPEs. Credit enhancements can include the following:
Subordinated certificates— securities issued by SPEs that are retained by us and are subordinated in priority of payment to the notes.

Overcollateralization— securitized asset balances that exceed the balance of securities issued by SPEs.

Excess interest— excess interest collections to be used to cover losses on defaulted loans.

Reserve funds— restricted cash accounts held by the SPEs to cover shortfalls in payments of interest and principal required to be paid on the notes.

Yield supplement accounts— restricted cash accounts held by SPEs to supplement interest payments on notes.
The risk retention regulations in Regulation RR of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (Exchange Act), require the sponsor to retain an economic interest in the credit risk of the securitized assets, either directly or through one or more majority-owned affiliates. Standard risk retention options allow the sponsor to retain either an eligible vertical interest, an eligible horizontal residual interest, or a combination of both. AHFC has satisfied this obligation by retaining an eligible vertical interest of an amount equal to at least 5% of the principal amount of each class of note and certificate issued for the securitization transaction that was subject to this rule but may choose to use other structures in the future.
We are required to consolidate the SPEs in our financial statements, which results in the securitizations being accounted for as on-balance sheet secured financings. The securitized assets remain on our consolidated balance sheet along with the notes issued by the SPEs.

During the threesix months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2023, we issued notes through asset-backed securitizations totaling $1.5$3.6 billion, which were secured by assets with an initial balance of $1.6$3.9 billion. There were no outstanding operating lease securitizations as of September 30, 2023.
Credit Agreements
Syndicated Bank Credit Facilities
AHFC maintains a $7.0 billion syndicated bank credit facility that includes a $3.5 billion 364-day credit agreement, which expires on February 23, 2024, a $2.1 billion credit agreement, which expires on February 25, 2026, and a $1.4 billion credit agreement, which expires on February 25, 2028. As of JuneSeptember 30, 2023, no amounts were drawn upon under the AHFC credit agreements. AHFC intends to renew or replace these credit agreements prior to or on their respective expiration dates.
HCFI maintains a C$2.0 billion ($1.5 billion) syndicated bank credit facility that includes a C$1.0 billion ($755737 million) credit agreement, which expires on March 25, 2024 and a C$1.0 billion ($755737 million) credit agreement, which expires March 25, 2027. As of JuneSeptember 30, 2023, no amounts were drawn upon under the HCFI credit agreement. HCFI intends to renew or replace the credit agreement prior to or on the expiration date of each respective tranche.
4346


The credit agreements contain customary conditions to borrowing and customary restrictive covenants, including limitations on liens and limitations on mergers, consolidations and asset sales, and limitations on affiliate transactions. The credit agreements also require AHFC and HCFI to maintain a positive consolidated tangible net worth as defined in their respective credit agreements. The credit agreements, in addition to other customary events of default, include cross-default provisions and provisions for default if HMC does not maintain ownership, whether directly or indirectly, of at least 80% of the outstanding capital stock of AHFC or HCFI, as applicable. In addition, the AHFC and HCFI credit agreements contain provisions for default if HMC’s obligations under the HMC-AHFC Keep Well Agreement or the HMC-HCFI Keep Well Agreement, as applicable, become invalid, voidable, or unenforceable. All of these conditions, covenants and events of default are subject to important limitations and exceptions under the agreements governing the credit agreements. As of JuneSeptember 30, 2023, management believes that AHFC and HCFI were in compliance with all covenants contained in the respective credit agreements.
Other Credit Agreements
AHFC maintains other committed lines of credit that allow the Company access to an additional $1.0 billion in unsecured funding with two banks. The credit agreements contain customary covenants, including limitations on liens, mergers, consolidations and asset sales and a requirement for AHFC to maintain a positive consolidated tangible net worth. As of JuneSeptember 30, 2023, no amounts were drawn upon under these agreements. These agreements expire in September 2023.2024. The Company intends to renew or replace these credit agreements prior to or on their respective expiration dates.
Keep Well Agreements
HMC has entered into separate Keep Well Agreements with AHFC and HCFI. Pursuant to the Keep Well Agreements, HMC has agreed to, among other things:

own and hold, at all times, directly or indirectly, at least 80% of each of AHFC’s and HCFI’s issued and outstanding shares of voting stock and not pledge, directly or indirectly, encumber, or otherwise dispose of any such shares or permit any of HMC’s subsidiaries to do so, except to HMC or wholly-owned subsidiaries of HMC;

cause each of AHFC and HCFI to, on the last day of each of AHFC’s and HCFI’s respective fiscal years, have a positive consolidated tangible net worth (with “tangible net worth” meaning (a) shareholders’ equity less (b) any intangible assets, as determined in accordance with GAAP with respect to AHFC and generally accepted accounting principles in Canada with respect to HCFI); and

ensure that, at all times, each of AHFC and HCFI has sufficient liquidity and funds to meet their payment obligations under any Debt (with “Debt” defined as AHFC’s or HCFI’s debt, as applicable, for borrowed money that HMC has confirmed in writing is covered by the respective Keep Well Agreement) in accordance with the terms of such Debt, or where necessary, HMC will make available to AHFC or HCFI, as applicable, or HMC will procure for AHFC or HCFI, as applicable, sufficient funds to enable AHFC or HCFI, as applicable, to pay its Debt in accordance with its terms. AHFC or HCFI Debt does not include the notes issued by SPEs in connection with AHFC’s or HCFI’s secured financing transactions, any related party debt or any indebtedness outstanding as of JuneSeptember 30, 2023 under AHFC’s and HCFI’s bank loan agreements.
As consideration for HMC’s obligations under the Keep Well Agreements, we have agreed to pay HMC a quarterly fee based on the amount of outstanding Debt pursuant to Support Compensation Agreements, dated April 1, 2019. We incurred expenses of $15$16 million and $17 million during both the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2023 and 2022, and $31 million and $33 million during the six months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, pursuant to these Support Compensation Agreements.
Indebtedness of Consolidated Subsidiaries
As of JuneSeptember 30, 2023, AHFC and its consolidated subsidiaries had $51.9$54.2 billion of outstanding indebtedness and other liabilities, including current liabilities, of which $13.9$14.6 billion consisted of indebtedness and liabilities of our consolidated subsidiaries. None of AHFC’s consolidated subsidiaries had any outstanding preferred equity.

_______________________
(1)Debt obligations reflect the remaining principal obligations of our outstanding debt and do not reflect unamortized debt discounts and fees. Repayment schedule of secured debt reflects payment performance assumptions on underlying receivables. Foreign currency denominated debt principal is based on exchange rates as of JuneSeptember 30, 2023.
(2)Interest payments on floating rate and foreign currency denominated debt based on the applicable floating rates and/or exchange rates as of JuneSeptember 30, 2023.
The obligations in the above table do not include certain lending commitments to dealers since the amount and timing of future payments is uncertain. Refer to Note 8—Commitments and Contingencies of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on these commitments.
Our contractual obligations on derivative instruments are also excluded from the table above because our future cash obligations under these contracts are inherently uncertain. We recognize all derivative instruments on our consolidated balance sheet at fair value. The amounts recognized as fair value do not represent the amounts that will be ultimately paid or received upon settlement under these contracts. Refer to Note 5—Derivative Instruments of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on derivative instruments.
Derivatives
We utilize derivative instruments to mitigate exposures to fluctuations in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates. The types of derivative instruments include interest rate swaps, basis swaps, and cross currency swaps. Interest rate and basis swap agreements are used to mitigate the effects of interest rate fluctuations of our floating rate debt relative to our fixed rate finance receivables and operating lease assets. Cross currency swap agreements are used to manage currency and interest rate risk exposure on foreign currency denominated debt. The derivative instruments contain an element of credit risk in the event the counterparties are unable to meet the terms of the agreements.
All derivative financial instruments are recorded on our consolidated balance sheet as assets or liabilities, and carried at fair value. Changes in the fair value of derivatives are recognized in our consolidated statements of income in the period of the change. Since we do not elect to apply hedge accounting, the impact to earnings resulting from these valuation adjustments as reported under GAAP is not representative of our results of operations as evaluated by management. Realized gains and losses on derivative instruments, net of realized gains and losses on foreign currency denominated debt, are included in the measure of net revenues when we evaluate segment performance. Refer to Note 13—Segment Information of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) for additional information about segment information and Note 5—Derivative Instruments of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) for additional information on derivative instruments.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We are not a party to off-balance sheet arrangements.

Critical Accounting Estimates
The application of certain accounting policies may require management to make estimates that affect our financial condition and results of operations. Critical accounting estimates require our most difficult, subjective, or complex judgments, often requiring us to make estimates about the effects of matters that are inherently uncertain and may change in subsequent periods, or for which the use of different estimates that could have reasonably been used in the current period would have had a material impact on the presentation of our financial condition and results of operations. Actual results could differ from these estimates which could have a material effect on our financial condition and results of operations in subsequent periods.
Allowance for Credit Losses on Retail Loans and Estimated Early Termination Losses on Operating Lease Assets
Retail loans are evaluated on a collective basis and grouped into pools with similar risk characteristics such as origination quarter, internal credit grade at origination, product type, and original term. The allowance for retail loans is measured using econometric regression models that correlate vintage age, credit quality, economic, and other variables to historical vintage-level credit loss performance. Statistically relevant economic factors such as unemployment rates, bankruptcies, and used vehicle price indexes are applied in the analysis of the economic environment. Current and forecasted economic conditions are applied in the models to project monthly gross loss rates in terms of origination dollars for the remaining contractual life of each vintage. Recoveries are projected as a percentage of the cumulative forecasted loss dollar of each vintage. The contractual term is the estimated lifetime of retail loans and is considered to be a reasonable and supportable forecast period of future economic conditions. Economic forecasts and macroeconomic variables are obtained from a third party economic research firm that extend through the lifetime of retail loans and converge to long-run equilibrium trends. Baseline forecasts that reflect the most likely economic future is the single economic scenario applied in the models. Qualitative adjustments may also be applied if management believes the quantitative models do not reflect the best estimate of lifetime expected credit losses. Estimated losses on operating leases expected to terminate early due to lessee defaults are also determined collectively using modeling methodologies consistent with those used for retail loans.
Sensitivity Analysis
We applied the baseline economic scenarios for the United States and Canada that were obtained from a third party economic research firm in our models to determine our allowance for credit losses on retail loans and estimated early termination losses on operating lease assets as of JuneSeptember 30, 2023. These baseline economic scenarios represent forecasts of the most likely economic future, with an equal probability of economic conditions being better or worse than forecasted. Alternative economic scenarios were also obtained from the third party economic research firm. As an example of the sensitivity of our accounting estimates, we applied upside and downside economic scenarios in our models. The peak unemployment rate over the next 24 month period under the upside and downside economic scenarios in the United States was 3.6% and 7.9%7.7%, respectively. The resulting allowance for credit losses on retail loans under the upside and downside economic scenarios was $277$300 million and $450$475 million, respectively. Similarly, the resulting estimated early termination losses on operating lease assets were $78$85 million and $117$126 million, respectively.
Estimated End of Term Residual Values
Estimated end of term residual values are dependent on the expected market values of leased vehicles at the end of their lease terms and the percentage of leased vehicles expected to be returned by lessees. Factors considered in this evaluation include, among other factors, economic conditions, external market information on new and used vehicles, historical trends, and recent auction values. Estimated return rates are dependent on expected market values of leased vehicles since declines in used vehicle prices generally increase the probability of vehicles being returned to us at the end of their lease terms. We also review our investment in operating leases for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying values may not be recoverable. If impairment conditions are met, impairment losses are measured by the amount the carrying values exceed their fair values.
Sensitivity Analysis
If future expected end of term market values for all outstanding operating leases as of JuneSeptember 30, 2023 were to decrease by $100 per unit from our current estimates, the total impact would be an increase of approximately $40$36 million in depreciation expense, which would be recognized over the remaining lease terms. If future return rates for all operating leases were to increase by one percentage point from our current estimates, the total impact would be an increase of approximately $9 million in depreciation expense, which would be recognized over the remaining lease terms. This sensitivity analysis is specific to the conditions in effect as of JuneSeptember 30, 2023 and does not consider the effect declines in estimated end of term market values may have on return rates.
