(1) Organization and Consolidation

John Deere Capital Corporation (Capital Corporation) and its subsidiaries are collectively called the Company. John Deere Financial Services, Inc. (JDFS), a wholly-owned finance holding subsidiary of Deere & Company, owns all of the outstanding common stock of Capital Corporation. The Company provides and administers financing for retail purchases of new equipment manufactured by Deere & Company’s production and precision agriculture operations, small agriculture and turf operations, and construction and forestry operations and used equipment taken in trade for this equipment. The Company generally purchases retail installment sales and loan contracts (retail notes) from Deere & Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (collectively called John Deere). John Deere generally acquires these retail notes through John Deere retail dealers. The Company also purchases and finances a limited amount of non-Deere retail notes. The Company also finances and services revolving charge accounts, in most cases acquired from and offered through merchants in the agriculture and turf and construction and forestry markets (revolving charge accounts). The Company also provides wholesale financing for inventories of John Deere agriculture and turf and construction and forestry equipment for dealers of those products (wholesale receivables). In addition, the Company leases John Deere equipment and a limited amount of non-Deere equipment to retail customers (financing and operating leases). The Company also offers credit enhanced international export financing to select customers and dealers, which generally involves John Deere products. Retail notes, revolving charge accounts, wholesale receivables, and financing leases are collectively called “Receivables.” Receivables and equipment on operating leases are collectively called “Receivables and Leases.” The Company generally secures its Receivables, other than certain revolving charge accounts, by retaining as collateral a security interest in the goods associated with those Receivables or with the use of other collateral.

Beginning in fiscal year 2021, John Deere implemented a new strategy, operating model, and reporting structure. With this change, John Deere’s agriculture and turf operations were divided into two new segments: production and precision agriculture and small agriculture and turf. There were no changes to John Deere’s construction and forestry or financial services segments. Receivables and Leases managed by the Company continue to be evaluated by market (agriculture and turf and construction and forestry). References to agriculture and turf include both production and precision agriculture and small agriculture and turf.

The Company has prepared its interim consolidated financial statements, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. have been condensed or omitted as permitted by such rules and regulations. All adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, have been included. Management believes that the disclosures are adequate to present fairly the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows at the dates and for the periods presented. It is suggested that these interim consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto appearing in the Company’s latest annual report on Form 10-K. Results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of those to be expected for the fiscal year.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and related disclosures. The COVID-19 (COVID) pandemic has resulted in uncertainties in the Company’s business, which may result in actual outcomes differing ~~significantly~~ from those estimates.

The Company uses a 52/53 week fiscal year with quarters ending on the last Sunday in the reporting period. The ~~third~~first quarter ends for fiscal year 2021 and 2020 were January 31, 2021 and ~~2019 were August~~February 2, 2020, ~~and July 28, 2019,~~ respectively. Both periods contained 13 weeks.

(2) New Accounting Standards

New Accounting Standards Adopted

In the first quarter of ~~2020,~~2021, the Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. ~~2016-02, Leases (Topic 842),~~2016-13, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which ~~supersedes~~establishes Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) ~~840, Leases.~~326, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses. This ASU was adopted using a modified-retrospective approach. The ~~ASU’s primary change is the requirement for lessee entities to recognize a lease liability for payments and a right of use asset during the term of operating lease arrangements. The~~ ASU, did not significantly change the lessee’s recognition, measurement, and presentation of expenses and cash flows from the previous accounting standard. Lessors’ accounting under the ASC is largely unchanged from the previous accounting standard. The ASU adds new disclosures about the Company’s leasing activities. The Company elected the optional practical expedients to not reassess whether existing contracts contain leases, not reassess lease classification, and not reassess initial direct costs for existing leases. The Company did not elect the hindsight practical expedient. In addition, the Company elected to combine lease and nonlease components for all asset classes and to not recognize a right of use asset or lease liability for arrangements that qualify as short-term leases. Upon adoption of the ASU, the Company recorded right of use assets and lease liabilities for operating leases of $5.1 million and $5.1 million, respectively. The right of use assets are recorded in other assets and the lease liabilities are recorded in accounts payable and accrued expenses on the consolidated balance sheet. Since the right of use assets and lease liabilities are not significant, no further lessee disclosures have been included in the condensed notes to the interim consolidated financial statements. See Note 6 for additional disclosuresalong with related ~~to lessor arrangements. The adoption did not have a material effect on the Company’s operating results or cash flows.~~

~~The Company also adopted the following standards in 2020, none of which had a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements:~~

~~Accounting Standards Updates~~


~~2019-04~~	Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses, Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and Topic 825, Financial Instruments. The adoption was for clarifications to ASU No. 2017-12, Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities
~~2020-04~~	~~Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting, which establishes ASC 848, Reference Rate Reform~~

~~New Accounting Standards to be Adopted~~

~~In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which establishes ASC 326, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses. The ASU revises~~amendments, revised the measurement of credit losses for financial assets measured at amortized cost from an incurred loss to an expected loss methodology. The ASU affects receivables, debt securities, net investment in leases, and most other financial assets that represent a right to receive cash. ~~Additional disclosures about significant estimates~~

The Company holds deposits from dealers (dealer deposits), which are recorded in deposits withheld from dealers and merchants, to absorb certain credit ~~quality are also required. The effective date will be~~losses. Prior to adopting this ASU, the ~~first quarter~~allowance for credit losses was estimated on probable credit losses incurred after consideration of ~~fiscal year 2021.~~recoveries from dealer deposits. The ASU ~~will be adopted using~~considers dealer deposits and certain credit insurance contracts as freestanding credit enhancements. As a ~~modified-retrospective approach. The Company is testing and validating models developed to estimate expected~~result, after adoption, credit losses ~~assessing appropriate assumptions, designing new procedures~~recovered from dealer deposits and ~~controls,~~certain credit insurance contracts are presented in other income and ~~evaluating~~no longer as part of the ~~potential~~allowance for credit losses or the provision for credit losses. The ASU also modified the treatment of the estimated write-off on delinquent receivables by no longer including the estimated benefit of charges to the dealer deposits in the write-off amount (see Note 4). This change increases the estimated write-offs on delinquent financing receivables with the benefit of credit losses recovered from dealer deposits presented in other income. This benefit, in both situations, is recorded when the dealer deposits are charged and no longer based on estimated recoveries.

The effects of adopting the ASU on the consolidated balance sheet were as follows (in millions of dollars):


	November 1		Cumulative Effect		November 2
	2020		from Adoption		2020

(4) Receivables

Credit Quality

The Company monitors the credit quality of Receivables based on delinquency status. Past due balances of Receivables still accruing finance income represent the total balance held (principal plus accrued interest) with any payment amounts 30 days or more past the contractual payment due date.

~~The Company monitors the credit quality of Receivables based on delinquency status.~~ Non-performing Receivables represent loans for which the Company has ceased accruing finance income. Generally, when retail notes, revolving charge accounts, and financing lease accounts are 90 days delinquent, accrual of finance income and lease revenue is ~~suspended.~~suspended, and accrued finance income previously recognized is reversed. Generally, when a wholesale receivable becomes 60 days delinquent, the Company determines whether the accrual of finance income on interest-bearing wholesale receivables should be suspended. Finance income for non-performing Receivables is recognized on a cash basis. Accrual of finance income is generally resumed when the receivable becomes contractually current and collections are reasonably assured.

Receivable balances are written off to the allowance for credit losses when, in the judgment of management, they are considered uncollectible. Generally, when retail notes and financing lease accounts are 120 days delinquent, the collateral is repossessed or the account is designated for litigation, and the estimated uncollectible amount ~~after charging~~from the ~~dealer’s withholding account, if any,~~customer is written off to the allowance for credit losses. Revolving charge accounts are generally deemed to be uncollectible and written off to the allowance for credit losses when delinquency reaches 120 days. Generally, when a wholesale account becomes 60 days delinquent, the Company determines whether the collateral should be repossessed or the account designated for litigation, and the estimated uncollectible amount is written off to the allowance for credit losses.

Due to the ~~significant, negative~~economic effects of COVID, the Company provided short-term relief to dealers and retail customers during ~~the second~~2020, and ~~third quarters of 2020.~~to a much lesser extent in 2021. The relief was provided in regional programs and on a case-by-case basis with customers that were generally current in their payment obligations. ~~For retail receivable customers, which include retail notes,~~ ~~financing leases, and~~ ~~revolving charge accounts, the relief generally included payment deferrals of three months or less. The retail receivables~~Receivables granted relief ~~which were primarily construction accounts,~~ represented approximately 54 percent of the ~~retail receivables~~Receivables balance at ~~August 2, 2020.~~January 31, 2021. The majority of Receivables granted short-term relief ~~provided to dealers generally included payment deferrals of three months~~during 2020 are beyond the deferral period and have either resumed making payments or less and short-term interest rate reductions in certain markets. The wholesale receivables granted relief, which primarily related to agriculture and turf dealers, represented approximately 3 percent of the wholesale receivables balance at August 2, 2020. The delinquency status of receivables granted relief isare reported as delinquent based on the modified payment schedule.

~~An age~~The credit quality analysis of ~~past due Receivables that are still accruing interest~~retail notes, financing leases, and ~~non-performing Receivables~~revolving charge accounts (collectively, Customer Receivables) at January 31, 2021 was as follows (in millions of dollars):

The increase in the allowance for credit losses during the first nine months of 2020 was primarily due to the negative economic effects related to COVID and other macroeconomic issues, which have significantly affected certain retail borrowers, particularly of construction equipment.

Receivables are considered impaired when it is probable the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms. Receivables reviewed for impairment generally include those that are either past due, or have provided bankruptcy notification, or require significant collection efforts. Receivables that are impaired are generally classified as non-performing.

Allowance for Credit Losses

The allowance for credit losses is an estimate of the credit losses expected over the life of the Company’s Receivable portfolio. The Company measures expected credit losses on a collective basis when similar risk characteristics exist. Risk characteristics considered by the Company include product category, market, geography, credit risk, and remaining duration. Receivables that do not share risk characteristics with other receivables in the portfolio are evaluated on an individual basis.

The Company utilizes loss forecast models, which are selected based on the size and credit risk of the underlying pool of receivables, to estimate expected credit losses. Transition matrix models are used for large and complex Customer Receivable pools, while weighted average remaining maturity (WARM) models are used for smaller and less complex Customer Receivable pools. Transition matrix models, which are used for the majority of the Customer Receivables, estimate credit losses using historical delinquency and default information to assign probabilities that a loan will pay as contractually scheduled or become delinquent and advance through the various delinquency stages. The model simulates the runoff of the portfolio, month-by-month, over the life of the loans until the balances are fully repaid or default, using roll rates applied to the outstanding portfolio. The roll rates are applied based on the delinquency status of the customer accounts and are further segmented based on the credit risk and remaining duration of the underlying receivables. Estimated recovery rates are applied to the balance at default to calculate the expected credit losses. The modeled expected credit losses are adjusted based on reasonable and supportable forecasts, which may include economic indicators such as commodity prices, industry equipment sales, unemployment rates, and housing starts. The WARM models apply historical average annual loss rates, adjusted for current and forecasted economic conditions, to the projected portfolio runoff. Expected credit losses on wholesale receivables are based on historical loss rates, adjusted for current economic conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Management reviews each model’s output quarterly, and qualitative adjustments are incorporated as necessary.

Recoveries from freestanding credit enhancements, such as dealer deposits, are not included in the estimate of expected credit losses. Recoveries from dealer deposits are recognized in other income on the statement of consolidated income when the dealer’s withholding account is charged. During the three months ended January 31, 2021, $.9 million was recorded in other income related to recoveries from credit enhancements. Prior to the adoption of ASU No. 2016-13, the allowance for credit losses was estimated on probable credit losses incurred after consideration of expected recoveries from credit enhancements.

An analysis of the allowance for credit losses and investment in Receivables during 2021 was as follows (in millions of dollars):

*See Note 2 regarding new accounting guidance related to credit losses.

**Excludes provision for credit losses on unfunded commitments of $2.4 million, which is recorded in accounts payable and accrued expenses on the consolidated balance sheet.

The allowance for credit losses on Receivables increased $20.4 million in the first quarter of 2021, primarily related to the adoption of ASU No. 2016-13. Following the adoption of the new credit loss standard, the allowance for credit losses on retail notes and financing leases increased slightly, while the allowance on revolving charge accounts decreased, reflecting better than expected payment performance on certain agriculture revolving accounts in the U.S due to improved conditions in the agriculture market.

Troubled Debt Restructurings

A troubled debt restructuring is generally the modification of debt in which a creditor grants a concession it would not otherwise consider to a debtor that is experiencing financial difficulties. These modifications may include a reduction of the stated interest rate, an extension of the maturity dates, a reduction of the face amount or maturity amount of the debt, or a reduction of accrued interest. During the first ~~nine~~three months of ~~2020,~~2021, the

Company identified ~~328~~95 Receivable contracts, primarily retail notes, as troubled debt restructurings with aggregate balances of ~~$12.6~~$5.5 million pre-modification and ~~$11.6~~$5.4 million post-modification. During the first three months of 2020, there were 73 Receivable contracts, primarily retail notes, with aggregate balances of $2.2 million pre-modification and $2.0 million post-modification. The short-term relief related to COVID mentioned ~~earlier~~on page 11 did not meet the definition of a troubled debt restructuring. ~~During the first nine months of 2019, there were 233 Receivable contracts, primarily retail notes, with aggregate balances of $11.7 million pre-modification and $11.3 million post-modification.~~ During these same periods, there were 0 significant troubled debt restructurings that subsequently defaulted and were written off. At ~~August 2, 2020,~~January 31, 2021, the Company had 0 commitments to lend additional funds to borrowers whose accounts were modified in troubled debt restructurings.

(5) Securitization of Receivables

The Company, as a part of its overall funding strategy, periodically transfers certain Receivables (retail notes) into variable interest entities (VIEs) that are special purpose entities (SPEs), or non-VIE banking operations, as part of its asset-backed securities programs (securitizations). The structure of these transactions is such that the transfer of the retail notes ~~did~~does not meet the accounting criteria for sales of receivables, and is, therefore, accounted for as a secured borrowing. SPEs utilized in securitizations of retail notes differ from other entities included in the Company’s consolidated statements because the assets they hold are legally isolated. Use of the assets held by the SPEs or the non-VIEs is restricted by terms of the documents governing the securitization transactions.

In these securitizations, the retail notes are transferred to certain SPEs or to non-VIE banking operations, which in turn issue debt to investors. The debt securities issued to the ~~third party~~third-party investors result in secured borrowings, which are recorded as “Securitization borrowings” on the consolidated balance sheet. The securitized retail notes are recorded as “Retail notes securitized” on the consolidated balance sheet. The total restricted assets on the consolidated balance sheet related to these securitizations include the retail notes securitized less an allowance for credit losses, and other assets primarily representing restricted cash. Restricted cash results from contractual requirements in securitized borrowing arrangements and serves as a credit enhancement. The restricted cash is used to satisfy payment deficiencies, if any, in the required payments on secured borrowings. The balance of restricted cash is contractually stipulated and is either a fixed amount as determined by the initial balance of the retail notes securitized or a fixed percentage of the outstanding balance of the retail notes securitized. The restriction is removed either after all secured borrowing payments are made or proportionally as these receivables are collected and borrowing obligations reduced. For those securitizations in which retail notes are transferred into SPEs, the SPEs supporting the secured borrowings are consolidated unless the Company does not have both the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the SPEs’ economic performance and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that could potentially be significant to the SPEs. No additional support to these SPEs beyond what was previously contractually required has been provided during the reporting periods.

In certain securitizations, the Company consolidates the SPEs since it has both the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the SPEs’ economic performance through its role as servicer of all the Receivables held by the SPEs and the obligation through variable interests in the SPEs to absorb losses or receive benefits that could potentially be significant to the SPEs. The restricted assets (retail notes securitized, allowance for credit losses, and other assets) of the consolidated SPEs totaled ~~$3,342.5~~$2,424.7 million, ~~$2,894.4~~$2,897.5 million, and ~~$3,425.2~~$2,490.1 million at ~~August~~January 31, 2021, November 1, 2020, and February 2, 2020, ~~November 3, 2019, and July 28, 2019,~~ respectively. The liabilities (securitization borrowings and accrued interest) of these SPEs totaled ~~$3,258.8~~$2,403.4 million, ~~$2,847.2~~$2,856.2 million, and ~~$3,316.4~~$2,442.1 million at ~~August~~January 31, 2021, November 1, 2020, and February 2, 2020, ~~November 3, 2019, and July 28, 2019,~~ respectively. The credit holders of these SPEs do not have legal recourse to the Company’s general credit.

In certain securitizations, the Company transfers retail notes to non-VIE banking operations, which are not consolidated since the Company does not have a controlling interest in the entities. The Company’s carrying values and interests related to the securitizations with the unconsolidated non-VIEs were restricted assets (retail notes securitized, allowance for credit losses, and other assets) of ~~$642.4~~$463.0 million, ~~$447.0~~$549.7 million, and $596.6 million at January 31, 2021, November 1, 2020, and February 2, 2020, respectively. The liabilities (securitization borrowings and accrued interest) were $453.5 million, $528.1 million, and $567.3 million at January 31, 2021, November 1, 2020, and February 2, 2020, respectively.

1815

$532.6 million at August 2, 2020, November 3, 2019, and July 28, 2019, respectively. The liabilities (securitization borrowings and accrued interest) were $606.0 million, $420.5 million, and $492.7 million at August 2, 2020, November 3, 2019, and July 28, 2019, respectively.

In certain securitizations, the Company transfers retail notes into bank-sponsored, multi-seller, commercial paper conduits, which are SPEs that are not consolidated. The Company does not service a significant portion of the conduits’ receivables, and therefore, does not have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the conduits’ economic performance. These conduits provide a funding source to the Company (as well as other transferors into the conduit) as they fund the retail notes through the issuance of commercial paper. The Company’s carrying values and variable interest related to these conduits were restricted assets (retail notes securitized, allowance for credit losses, and other assets) of ~~$1,551.3~~$1,120.0 million, ~~$1,079.2~~$1,327.3 million, and ~~$1,286.1~~$1,440.5 million at ~~August~~January 31, 2021, November 1, 2020, and February 2, 2020, ~~November 3, 2019, and July 28, 2019,~~ respectively. The liabilities (securitization borrowings and accrued interest) related to these conduits were ~~$1,463.4~~$1,097.0 million, ~~$1,015.2~~$1,275.1 million, and ~~$1,189.6~~$1,369.7 million at ~~August~~January 31, 2021, November 1, 2020, and February 2, 2020, ~~November 3, 2019, and July 28, 2019,~~ respectively.

The Company’s carrying amount of the liabilities to the unconsolidated conduits, compared to the maximum exposure to loss related to these conduits, which would only be incurred in the event of a complete loss on the restricted assets was as follows (in millions of dollars):


	August 2		January 31
	2020		2021
Carrying value of liabilities	$	1,463.4	$	1,097.0
Maximum exposure to loss		1,551.3		1,120.0

The total assets of unconsolidated VIEs related to securitizations were approximately ~~$41.3~~$37 billion at ~~August 2, 2020.~~January 31, 2021.

The components of consolidated restricted assets related to secured borrowings in securitization transactions were as follows (in millions of dollars):

The secured borrowings related to these restricted securitized retail notes are obligations that are payable as the retail notes are liquidated. Repayment of the secured borrowings depends primarily on cash flows generated by the restricted assets. Due to the Company’s short-term credit rating, cash collections from these restricted assets are not required to be placed into a segregated collection account until immediately prior to the time payment is required to the secured creditors. At ~~August 2, 2020,~~January 31, 2021, the maximum remaining term of all restricted securitized retail notes was approximately ~~seven~~six years.

(6) Leases

The Company leases John Deere equipment and a limited amount of non-Deere equipment to retail customers through sales-type, direct financing, and operating leases. Sales-type and direct financing leases are reported in financing leases on the consolidated balance sheet. Operating leases are reported in equipment on operating leases – net on the consolidated balance sheet.

~~Initial lease terms generally range from less than one year to seven years. Leases offered~~Lease revenues earned by the Company ~~may include early termination~~were as follows (in millions of dollars):

*Variable lease revenues primarily relate to separately invoiced property taxes on leased equipment in certain markets and renewal options. At the end of a lease, the lessee generally has the option to purchase the underlying equipment for a fixed price or return it to the dealer. If the equipment is returned to the dealer, the dealer also has the option to purchase the equipment or return it to the Company for remarketing.late fees.

The Company reviews residual value estimates during the lease term and tests the carrying value of its operating lease assets for impairment when events or circumstances necessitate. The depreciation is adjusted on a straight-line basis over the remaining lease term if residual value estimates decline. Lease agreements include usage limits and specifications on machine condition, which allow the Company to assess lessees for excess use or damages to the underlying equipment. During the second quarter of 2020, the Company recordedThere were 0 impairment losses on operating leases ~~of $21.0~~recorded during the three months ended January 31, 2021 or February 2, 2020.

The total operating lease residual values at January 31, 2021, November 1, 2020, and February 2, 2020 were $3,706.8 million, $3,826.3 million, and $3,892.4 million, respectively. Certain operating leases are subject to residual value guarantees. The total residual value guarantees were $162.5 million, $141.0 million, and $60.7 million at January 31, 2021, November 1, 2020, and February 2, 2020, respectively. The increase in residual value guarantees is primarily due to ~~higher expected return rates and lower estimated values of used construction equipment.

(7) Notes Receivable from John Deere

The Company makes loans to affiliated companies. The Company receives interest from John Deere at competitive market interest rates. The lending agreements mature over the next seven years. Interest earned from John Deere was $3.3 million in the first three months of 2021, compared with $4.4 million for the ~~third quarter and $12.4 million in the first nine months of 2020, compared with $4.5 million and $12.1 million for the~~ same ~~periods~~period last year.

The Company had notes receivable from John Deere with the following affiliated companies as follows (in millions of dollars):

(8) Commitments and Contingencies

At ~~August 2, 2020,~~January 31, 2021, John Deere Financial Inc., the John Deere finance subsidiary in Canada, had ~~$1,639.1~~$1,987.8 million of medium-term notes outstanding, and a fair value liability of ~~$66.9~~$56.5 million for derivatives outstanding, prior to considering applicable netting provisions, with a notional amount of ~~$2,790.2~~$3,367.6 million that were guaranteed by Capital Corporation. The weighted average interest rate on the medium-term notes at ~~August 2, 2020~~January 31, 2021 was ~~2.6~~2.4 percent with a maximum remaining maturity of approximately ~~six~~seven years.

Capital Corporation has a variable interest in John Deere Canada Funding Inc. (JDCFI), a wholly-owned subsidiary of John Deere Financial Inc., which was created as a VIE to issue debt in public markets to fund the operations of affiliated companies in Canada. Capital Corporation has a variable interest in JDCFI because it provides guarantees for all debt issued by JDCFI, however it does not consolidate JDCFI because it does not have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact JDCFI’s economic performance. Capital Corporation has 0 carrying value of assets or liabilities related to JDCFI. Its maximum exposure to loss is the amount of the debt issued by JDCFI and guaranteed by Capital Corporation, which was ~~$1,452.8~~$1,130.3 million at ~~August 2, 2020.~~January 31, 2021. The weighted average interest rate on the debt at ~~August 2, 2020~~January 31, 2021 was ~~2.3~~2.5 percent with a maximum remaining maturity of approximately three years. No additional support beyond what was previously contractually required has been provided to JDCFI during the reporting periods.

The Company has commitments to extend credit to customers and John Deere dealers through lines of credit and other pre-approved credit arrangements. The Company applies the same credit policies and approval process for these commitments to extend credit as it does for its Receivables. Collateral is not required for these commitments, but if credit is extended, collateral may be required upon funding. The amount of unused commitments to extend credit to John Deere dealers was ~~$8.5~~$9.6 billion at ~~August 2, 2020.~~January 31, 2021. The amount of unused commitments to extend credit to customers was ~~$28.1~~$29.2 billion at ~~August 2, 2020.~~January 31, 2021. A significant portion of these commitments is not expected to be fully drawn upon; therefore, the total commitment amounts likely do not represent a future cash requirement. The Company generally has the right to unconditionally cancel, alter, or amend the terms of these commitments at any time. Over 95 percent of the unused commitments to extend credit to customers relate to revolving charge accounts. At ~~August 2, 2020,~~January 31, 2021, Capital Corporation had ~~$204.2~~$227.6 million in unused loan commitments, which are unconditionally cancellable, denominated in rubles to Limited Liability Company John Deere Financial, the John Deere finance subsidiary in Russia.

At ~~August 2, 2020,~~January 31, 2021, the Company had restricted other assets associated with borrowings related to securitizations ~~(See~~(see Note 5). Excluding the securitization programs, the remaining balance of restricted other assets was not material as of ~~August 2, 2020.~~January 31, 2021.

The Company is subject to various unresolved legal actions which arise in the normal course of its business, the most prevalent of which relate to retail credit matters. The Company believes the reasonably possible range of losses for these unresolved legal actions would not have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

2318

(9) Income Taxes

The Company’s unrecognized tax benefits at ~~August 2, 2020~~January 31, 2021 were ~~$31.0~~$27.7 million, compared to ~~$32.5~~$33.3 million at November ~~3, 2019.~~1, 2020. The liability at ~~August~~January 31, 2021, November 1, 2020, and February 2, 2020 ~~November 3, 2019, and July 28, 2019~~ consisted of approximately ~~$16.1~~$16.6 million, ~~$17.6~~$17.2 million, and ~~$16.4~~$14.6 million, respectively, which would affect the effective tax rate if the tax benefits were recognized. The remaining liability was related to tax positions for which there are offsetting tax receivables, or the uncertainty was only related to timing. The Company expects that any reasonably possible change in the amounts of unrecognized tax benefits in the next 12 months would not be ~~significant.~~material.

(10) 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. To determine fair value, the Company uses various methods including market and income approaches. The Company utilizes valuation models and techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs. The models are industry-standard models that consider various assumptions including time values and yield curves as well as other economic measures. These valuation techniques are consistently applied.

Level 1 measurements consist of quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 measurements include significant other observable inputs such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; identical assets or liabilities in inactive markets; observable inputs such as interest rates and yield curves; and other market-corroborated inputs. Level 3 measurements include significant unobservable inputs.

The fair values of financial instruments that do not approximate the carrying values were as follows (in millions of dollars):

* Fair value measurements above were Level 3 for all Receivables and Level 2 for all borrowings.

Fair values of Receivables that were issued long-term were based on the discounted values of their related cash flows at interest rates currently being offered by the Company for similar Receivables. The fair values of the remaining Receivables approximated the carrying amounts.

Fair values of long-term borrowings and short-term securitization borrowings were based on current market quotes for identical or similar borrowings and credit risk, or on the discounted values of their related cash flows at current market interest rates. Certain long-term borrowings have been swapped to current variable interest rates. The carrying values of these long-term borrowings include adjustments related to fair value hedges.

* ~~See~~ Receivables with specific allowances ~~in Note 4 that~~ were not significant. ~~See Note 6 for impairments on lease residual values.~~

The following is a description of the valuation methodologies the Company uses to measure certain financial instruments on the consolidated balance sheet at fair value:

Marketable securities – The international debt securities were valued using quoted prices for identical assets in inactive markets.

Derivatives – The Company’s derivative financial instruments consist of interest rate swaps and caps, foreign currency futures, forwards, and swaps, and cross-currency interest rate swaps. The portfolio is valued based on an income approach (discounted cash flow) using market observable inputs, including swap curves and both forward and spot exchange rates for currencies.

2520

Receivables – Specific reserve impairments are based on the fair value of the collateral, which is measured using a market approach (appraisal values or realizable values). Inputs include a selection of realizable values.

Equipment on operating leases - net – The impairments are based on an income approach (discounted cash flow), using the contractual payments, plus ~~estimates~~an estimate of return rates and equipment sale price at lease maturity. Inputs include ~~historic return rates and~~ realized sales values.

Other assets – The impairments ~~are~~of the matured operating lease inventory were measured at the fair value of ~~the matured operating lease~~that inventory. ~~The valuations were based on a market approach.~~ The inputs include sales of comparable assets.

(11) Derivative Instruments

It is the Company’s policy that derivative transactions are executed only to manage exposures arising in the normal course of business and not for the purpose of creating speculative positions or trading. The Company manages the relationship of the types and amounts of its funding sources to its Receivable and Lease portfolios in an effort to diminish risk due to interest rate and foreign currency fluctuations, while responding to favorable financing opportunities. The Company also has foreign currency exposures at some of its foreign and domestic operations related to financing in currencies other than the functional currencies.

All derivatives are recorded at fair value on the consolidated balance sheet. Cash collateral received or paid is not offset against the derivative fair values on the consolidated balance sheet. Each derivative is designated as a cash flow hedge, a fair value hedge, or remains undesignated. All designated hedges are formally documented as to the relationship with the hedged item as well as the risk-management strategy. Both at inception and on an ongoing basis the hedging instrument is assessed as to its effectiveness. If and when a derivative is determined not to be highly effective as a hedge, the underlying hedged transaction is no longer likely to occur, the hedge designation is removed, or the derivative is terminated, hedge accounting is discontinued.

Cash ~~flow hedges~~Flow Hedges

Certain interest rate contracts (swaps) were designated as hedges of future cash flows from borrowings. The total notional amounts of the receive-variable/pay-fixed interest rate contracts at ~~August~~January 31, 2021, November 1, 2020, and February 2, 2020 ~~November 3, 2019, and July 28, 2019~~ were ~~$1,900.0~~$2,350.0 million, ~~$3,150.0~~$1,550.0 million, and ~~$2,500.0~~$2,900.0 million, respectively. Fair value gains or losses on these cash flow hedges were recorded in other comprehensive income (OCI) and subsequently reclassified into interest expense in the same periods during which the hedged transactions ~~affected~~impact earnings. These amounts offset the effects of interest rate changes on the related borrowings. The cash flows from these contracts were recorded in operating activities in the statement of consolidated cash flows.

The amount of loss recorded in OCI at ~~August 2, 2020~~January 31, 2021 that is expected to be reclassified to interest expense in the next twelve months if interest rates remain unchanged is approximately ~~$11.4~~$3.6 million after-tax. NaN gains or losses were reclassified from OCI to earnings based on the probability that the original forecasted transaction would not occur.

Fair ~~value hedges~~Value Hedges

Certain interest rate contracts (swaps) were designated as fair value hedges of borrowings. The total notional amounts of ~~these~~the receive-fixed/pay-variable interest rate contracts at ~~August~~January 31, 2021, November 1, 2020, and February 2, 2020 ~~November 3, 2019, and July 28, 2019~~ were ~~$8,179.8~~$7,592.0 million, ~~$8,336.9~~$6,525.7 million, and ~~$8,864.9~~$8,743.0 million, respectively. The fair value gains or losses on these contracts were generally offset by fair value gains or losses on the hedged items (fixed-rate borrowings) with both items recorded in interest expense.

Derivatives ~~not~~Not designated as ~~hedging instruments~~Hedging Instruments

The Company has certain interest rate contracts (swaps and caps), foreign exchange contracts (futures, forwards, and swaps), and cross-currency interest rate contracts (swaps), which were not formally designated as hedges. These derivatives were held as economic hedges for underlying interest rate or foreign currency exposures primarily for certain borrowings. The total notional amounts of ~~these~~the interest rate swaps at ~~August~~January 31, 2021, November 1, 2020, and February 2, 2020 ~~November 3, 2019, and July 28, 2019~~ were ~~$2,423.2~~$2,527.7 million, ~~$2,312.4~~$2,336.6 million, and ~~$1,963.0~~$2,342.2 million, the foreign exchange contracts were ~~$211.1~~$113.0 million, ~~$691.6~~$172.6 million, and ~~$1,034.2~~$1,365.1 million, and the cross-currency interest rate contracts were ~~$123.5~~$144.7 million, ~~$91.1~~$111.5 million, and ~~$81.9~~$100.0 million, respectively. To facilitate borrowings through securitization of retail notes, interest rate caps were sold with notional amounts of ~~$2,171.0~~$1,743.9 million, ~~$1,611.3~~$1,961.4 million, and ~~$1,813.8~~$1,963.2 million at ~~August~~January 31, 2021, November 1, 2020, and February 2, 2020, ~~November 3, 2019, and July 28, 2019,~~ respectively. Interest rate caps were also purchased with notional amounts of ~~$2,171.0~~$1,743.9 million, ~~$1,611.3~~$1,961.4 million, and ~~$1,813.8~~$1,963.2 million at the same dates. The fair value gains or losses from the interest rate contracts were recognized currently in interest expense and the gains or losses from foreign exchange contracts in administrative and operating expenses, generally offsetting over time the expenses on the exposures being hedged. The cash flows from these non-designated contracts were recorded in operating activities in the statement of consolidated cash flows.

Counterparty Risk and Collateral

Derivative instruments are subject to significant concentrations of credit risk to the banking sector. The Company manages individual unrelated external counterparty exposure by setting limits that consider the credit rating of the unrelated external counterparty, the credit default swap spread of the counterparty, and other financial commitments and exposures between the Company and the unrelated external counterparty banks. All interest rate derivatives are transacted under International Swaps and Derivatives Association (ISDA) documentation. Each master agreement executed with an unrelated external counterparty permits the net settlement of amounts owed in the event of default or termination.

The Company’s outstanding derivatives have been transacted with both unrelated external counterparties and with John Deere. For derivatives transacted with John Deere, the Company utilizes a centralized hedging structure in which John Deere enters into a derivative transaction with an unrelated external counterparty and simultaneously enters into a derivative transaction with the Company. Except for collateral provisions, the terms of the transaction between the Company and John Deere are identical to the terms of the transaction between John Deere and its unrelated external counterparty.

Certain of the Company’s derivative agreements executed directly with ~~the~~ unrelated external counterparties contain credit support provisions that may require the Company to post ~~or receive~~ collateral based on the size of the net liability ~~or net asset~~ positions and credit ~~ratings,~~ratings. At January 31, 2021, November 1, 2020, and ~~market conventions. At August~~February 2, 2020, ~~November 3, 2019, and July 28, 2019,~~ there were 0 aggregate liability positions for derivatives with credit-risk-related contingent features. In accordance with these agreements, 0 collateral was posted at January 31, 2021, November 1, 2020, or ~~received at August~~February 2, ~~2020, November 3, 2019, or July 28, 2019. During the third quarter of 2020,~~2020. In addition, the Company paid ~~$2.3~~$2.6 million of collateral either in cash or pledged securities that was outstanding at ~~August 2,~~both January 31, 2021 and November 1, 2020 to participate in an international futures market to hedge currency exposure, which is not included in the table on the subsequent page.

2924

The Company also has ISDA agreements with John Deere that permit the net settlement of amounts owed between counterparties in the event of early termination. In addition, the Company has a loss sharing agreement with John Deere in which it has agreed to absorb any losses and expenses John Deere incurs if an unrelated external counterparty fails to meet its obligations on a derivative transaction that John Deere entered into to manage exposures of the Company. The loss sharing agreement did not increase the maximum amount of loss that the Company would incur, after considering collateral received and netting arrangements, as of ~~August~~January 31, 2021, November 1, 2020, and February 2, ~~2020, November 3, 2019, and July 28, 2019.~~2020.

(12) Pension and Other Postretirement Benefits

The Company is a participating employer in certain Deere & Company sponsored defined benefit pension plans for employees in the U.S. and certain defined benefit pension plans outside the U.S. These pension plans provide for benefits that are based primarily on years of service and employee compensation. Pension expense is actuarially determined based on the Company’s employees included in the plan. The Company’s pension expense was ~~$1.1 million~~not significant for the ~~third quarter~~three month periods ending January 31, 2021 and ~~$1.7 million for the first nine months of 2020, compared to $.3 million and $.5 million for the same periods last year.~~February 2, 2020. The accumulated benefit obligation and plan net assets for the employees of the Company are not determined separately from Deere & Company. The Company provides defined benefit health care and life insurance plans for certain retired employees in the U.S. as a participating employer in Deere & Company’s sponsored plans. Health care and life insurance benefits expense is actuarially determined based on the Company’s employees included in the plans and amounted to ~~$1.7 million for the third quarter and $8.3~~$1.6 million for the first ~~nine~~three months of ~~2020,~~2021, compared with ~~$.7 million and $3.3~~$5.1 million for the same ~~periods~~period last year. The ~~increase~~decrease from the prior year is primarily due to a $3.3 million curtailment loss in the first ~~quarter~~three months of 2020 related to voluntary employee-separation programs ~~(See~~(see Note 13). Further disclosure for these plans is included in Deere & Company’s Form 10-Q for the quarter ended ~~August 2, 2020.~~January 31, 2021.

(13) Employee-Separation Programs

During the first ~~nine months~~quarter of 2020, the Company incurred voluntary employee-separation program expenses of ~~$8.7~~$7.7 million, as part of its efforts to create a more efficient organization structure and reduce operating costs. The ~~programs~~program provided for cash payments based on years of service. The expenses were recorded primarily in the period in which the employees irrevocably accepted the separation offer. Included in the total pretax expense noted above ~~for the first nine months of 2020~~ was a non-cash charge of $3.3 million resulting from a curtailment in certain OPEB plans ~~during the first quarter of 2020 (See~~(see Note 12). The expenses were recorded in administrative and operating expenses.

During the third quarter and early fourth quarter of 2020, the Company announced additional employee-separation programs as part of an initiative to improve organizational efficiency. The programs will provide for cash payments based on years of service. The expenses will generally be recorded in the period the employees irrevocably accept the separation offer, which is expected to be primarily in the fourth quarter of 2020. The programs’ total pretax expenses are estimated to be about $10.0 million.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Results of Operations

Overview

Organization

The Company primarily generates revenues and cash by financing John Deere dealers’ sales and leases of new and used agriculture and turf equipment and construction and forestry equipment. In addition, the Company also provides wholesale financing to dealers of the foregoing equipment and finances retail revolving charge accounts.

Trends and Economic Conditions

The Company’s acquisition volume of Receivables and Leases is largely dependent upon the level of retail sales and leases of John Deere products. The level of John Deere retail sales and leases is responsive to a variety of economic, financial, climatic, legislative, and other factors that influence demand for its products.

Industry sales of agricultural machinery in the U.S. and Canada are ~~expected~~forecast to be ~~down 5~~up 15 to 1020 percent ~~for fiscal year 2020 compared to the prior year.~~in 2021. Industry sales in Europe are ~~also~~ forecast to be up about 5 ~~to 10~~ percent ~~lower~~ in ~~2020.~~2021. In South ~~American~~America, industry sales of tractors and combines are projected to be ~~down~~up about 10 ~~to 15 percent.~~percent in 2021. Asian ~~industry~~ sales are forecast to be down slightly in ~~2020.~~2021. Industry sales of turf and utility equipment in the U.S. and Canada are expected to be up about 5 percent ~~lower~~ in ~~2020. John Deere’s agriculture and turf segment sales decreased 5 percent in the third quarter and 10 percent for the first nine months.~~2021. Construction ~~equipment~~ industry sales in ~~North America~~U.S. and Canada for ~~2020~~2021 are expected to ~~decline~~increase about ~~20 percent.~~5 percent, while compact construction industry sales in the U.S. and Canada are expected to increase about 10 percent in 2021. In forestry, global industry sales are expected to be 205 to 2510 percent ~~lower. John Deere’s construction and forestry segment sales decreased 28 percent in the third quarter and 22 percent in the first nine months.~~higher.

The Company’s full year ~~2020~~2021 results are expected to ~~decline~~benefit from income earned from a higher average portfolio, lower losses on lease residual values, and favorable financing spreads.

Items of concern include uncertainty of the effectiveness of governmental and private sector actions to address COVID, trade agreements, the uncertainty of the results of monetary and fiscal policies, the impact of elevated levels of sovereign and state debt, capital market disruptions, changes in demand and pricing for new and used equipment, geopolitical events, and the other items discussed in the “Safe Harbor Statement” below. Significant fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and volatility in the price of many commodities could also impact the Company’s results. The future financial effects of COVID are unknown due to many factors. As a ~~higher provision for credit losses, a higher provision for income taxes from favorable discrete adjustments in~~result, predicting the ~~prior year, and less favorable financing spreads, partially offset by lower losses and impairments on operating lease residual values.~~Company’s forecasted financial performance is subject to many assumptions.

COVID Effects and Actions

~~During the first nine months of 2020, the~~The effects of COVID and the related actions of governments and other authorities to contain COVID ~~have affected~~continue to affect the Company’s operations, results, cash flows, and forecasts.

The Company’s first priority in addressing the effects of COVID continues to be the health, safety, and overall welfare of its employees. The Company effectively activated previously established business continuity plans and proactively implemented health and safety measures at its operations around the world.

The economic effects of COVID have reduced customer demand for some of John Deere’s products and services, particularly construction, forestry, and roadbuilding equipment, which resulted in lower shipment volumes. During most of the third quarter of 2020, all of John Deere’s factories have operated, some at reduced capacity due to component shortages or lower demand. As the Company’s acquisition volume of Receivables and Leases is largely dependent upon the level of sales and leases of John Deere products, the effects noted above may impact the Company’s acquisition volumes.

~~The~~ Company continued to work closely with its customers, including John Deere dealers and retail customers, ~~during~~in the ~~third~~first quarter ~~and, if necessary, provided~~in connection with short-term relief on obligations owed to the Company. The relief was provided in regional programs and on a case-by-case basis with customers that were generally current in their payment obligations. For retail customers, the relief generally included payment deferrals of three months or less and primarily related to construction accounts. The relief provided to dealers generally included payment deferrals of three months or less and short-term interest rate reductions in certain markets and primarily related to agriculture and turf dealers. The Receivables and Leases granted relief since the beginning of the pandemic and remaining outstanding at January 31, 2021 represented approximately 4 percent of the ~~Receivable~~Receivables and ~~Lease~~Leases portfolio ~~at August 2, 2020 (See~~(see Notes 4 and 6).

3227

The future financial effects of COVID are unknown due to many factors. These factors and other market variabilities include uncertainty of the effectiveness of governmental actions to address COVID, including health, monetary, and fiscal policies, the effect of elevated levels of sovereign and state debt, capital market disruptions, changes in demand and pricing for new and used equipment, trade agreements, other geopolitical events, significant fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, and volatility in the price of many commodities. As a result, predicting the Company’s forecasted financial performance is difficult and subject to many assumptions.

~~2020~~2021 Compared with ~~2019~~2020

The total revenues and net income attributable to the Company were as follows (in millions of dollars):

The provision (credit) for credit losses decreased for the ~~third~~first quarter of ~~2020~~2021 primarily due to ~~lower net write-offs. The~~improved payment performance on certain agriculture revolving charge accounts in the U.S. due to improved conditions in the agriculture market, partially offset by a higher provision for credit losses increased in the first nine months of 2020 primarily due to an increase in the allowance for credit losses and higher net write-offs of construction and forestry retail notes. The allowance increase was primarily due to the negative economic effects related to COVID and other macroeconomic issues, which have significantly affected certain retail borrowers, particularly of construction equipment (See Note 4).unfunded commitments. The annualized provision (credit) for credit losses, as a percentage of the average balance of total Receivables financed, was ~~.20 percent in the third quarter and .42~~(.01) percent in the first ~~nine months~~quarter of ~~2020,~~2021, compared with ~~.29 percent and .21~~.15 percent for the same ~~periods~~period last year. See ~~the Company’s most recently filed annual report on Form 10-K~~Note 2 and Note 4 for further information regarding the Company’s allowance for credit losses policies.

The depreciation of equipment on operating leases for the first quarter of 2021 decreased primarily due to updated depreciation estimates and lower average balances of equipment on operating leases.

The provision for income taxes increased in the ~~third~~first quarter of 2021 primarily due to ~~favorable discrete tax adjustments in the prior year period and~~ higher pretax income in the current quarter. The higher provision for income taxes in the first nine months of 2020 was primarily related to favorable discrete tax adjustments in the prior year, partially offset by lower pretax income in the current year.

* The delinquency status of receivables granted relief due to COVID is based on the modified payment schedule (See Note 4).

Receivables 30 days or more past due continue to accrue finance income. The Company ceases to accrue finance income once Receivables are considered non-performing. An allowance for credit losses is recorded for the estimated uncollectible amount. The allowance for credit losses is subject to an ongoing evaluation based on many quantitative and qualitative factors, including historical net loss experience by product category, portfolio duration, delinquency trends, economic conditions in the Company’s major markets and geographies, and credit risk quality. The Company believes its allowance is sufficient to provide for losses inherent in its existing Receivable portfolio. See Note 4 for additional information related to the allowance for credit losses.

Deposits withheld from dealers and merchants amounted to $105.6 million at August 2, 2020, compared with $137.5 million at November 3, 2019 and $138.8 million at July 28, 2019. These balances primarily represent the aggregate dealer retail note and lease withholding accounts from individual John Deere dealers to which losses from retail notes and leases originating from the respective dealers can be charged.

* The delinquency status of receivables granted relief due to COVID is based on the modified payment schedule (see Note 4).

Receivables 30 days or more past due continue to accrue finance income. The Company ceases to accrue finance income once Receivables are considered non-performing. An allowance for credit losses is recorded for the estimated credit losses expected over the life of the Receivable portfolio. The Company measures expected credit losses on a collective basis when similar risk characteristics exist. Risk characteristics considered by the Company include product category, market, geography, credit risk, and remaining duration. Receivables that do not share risk characteristics with other receivables in the portfolio are evaluated on an individual basis. The increase in the allowance for credit losses during the first quarter of 2021 was primarily due to the adoption of ASU No. 2016-13, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which establishes ASC 326, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses. While the Company believes its allowance is sufficient to provide for losses over the life of its existing Receivable portfolio, different assumptions or changes in economic conditions would result in changes to the allowance for credit losses and the provision for credit losses. See Note 4 for additional information related to the allowance for credit losses.

Deposits withheld from dealers and merchants amounted to $126.9 million at January 31, 2021, compared with $114.8 million at November 1, 2020 and $128.5 million at February 2, 2020. These balances primarily represent the aggregate dealer retail note and lease withholding accounts from individual John Deere dealers to which losses from retail notes and leases originating from the respective dealers can be charged. Upon the adoption of ASU 2016-13, recoveries from dealer deposits are recognized in other income when the dealer’s withholding account is charged. During the three months ended January 31, 2021, $.9 million was recorded in other income related to recoveries from dealer deposits and other freestanding credit enhancements. Prior to the adoption of ASU No. 2016-13, the benefit of credit losses recovered from freestanding credit enhancements, such as dealer deposits, were recognized in the provision for credit losses.

Write-offs and recoveries of Receivables, by product, and as an annualized percentage of average balances held during the period, were as follows (in millions of dollars):

Safe Harbor Statement

Safe Harbor Statement under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995: Statements under “Overview” and other forward-looking statements herein that relate to future events, expectations and trends involve factors that are subject to change, and risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially.

Factors that could materially affect the Company’s operations, access to capital, expenses, and results include changes in, uncertainty surrounding and the impact of governmental trade, banking, monetary, and fiscal policies, including financial regulatory reform and its effects on the consumer finance industry, derivatives, funding costs, and other areas. Actions by central banks, financial, and securities regulators may affect the costs and expenses of financing the Company and the financing rates it is able to offer. The Company’s business is affected by general economic conditions in the global markets in which the Company operates because deteriorating economic conditions and political instability can result in decreased customer confidence, lower demand for equipment, higher credit losses, and greater currency risk. The Company’s business is also affected by changes in demand and pricing for used equipment and resulting impacts on lease residual values; actions of banks, financing and leasing companies, and other lenders that compete with the Company for customers; capital market disruptions; significant changes in capital market liquidity and associated funding costs; interest rates (including the availability of IBOR reference rates) and foreign currency exchange rates and their volatility; changes to accounting standards; changes in tax rates, estimates, laws and regulations and Company actions related thereto; changes to and compliance with privacy regulations; changes to and compliance with economic sanctions and export controls laws and regulations; compliance with U.S. and foreign laws when expanding to new markets and otherwise; actions by other regulatory bodies; governmental programs, policies, and tariffs for the benefit of certain industries or sectors; sanctions in ~~weather patterns;~~particular jurisdictions; retaliatory actions to such changes in trade, banking, monetary and fiscal policies; the political and social stability of the global markets in which the Company operates; changes in weather patterns; the effects of, or response to, terrorism and security threats; wars and other conflicts; natural disasters; and the spread of major epidemics (including ~~COVID)~~the COVID pandemic) and government and industry responses to epidemics, such as travel restrictions and extended shut down of ~~businesses.~~businesses; events that damage the Company’s reputation or brand; significant investigations, claims,

lawsuits or other legal proceedings; changes in the ability to attract, develop, engage, and retain qualified personnel; the implementation of the smart industrial operating strategy and other organizational changes; the failure to realize anticipated savings or benefits of cost reduction, productivity, or efficiency efforts; difficulties related to the conversion and implementation of the Company’s information technology systems; and security breaches, cybersecurity attacks, technology failures and other disruptions to the Company’s information technology infrastructure.

Uncertainties related to the magnitude and duration of the COVID pandemic may significantly adversely affect John Deere’s and the Company’s business and outlook. These uncertainties include:the duration and impact of any resurgence in COVID cases in any country, state, or region; the emergence, contagiousness, and threat of new and different strains of COVID; prolonged reduction or closure of John Deere’s and the Company’s operations, or a delayed recovery in our operations; additional closures as mandated or otherwise made necessary by governmental authorities; additional operating costs due to remote working arrangements, adherence to social distancing guidelines and other COVID-related challenges; increased risk of cyber attacks on network connections used in remote working arrangements; increased privacy-related risks due to processing health-related personal information; legal claims related to personal protective equipment designed, made, or provided by the Company or alleged exposure to COVID on Company premises; absence of employees due to illness; the impact of the pandemic on the financial condition and credit risk of the Company's customers and dealers, which could affect the demand for financing and lead to higher credit losses and losses on lease residual values; requests by the Company’s customers or dealers for payment deferrals and contract modifications; the impact of disruptions in the global capital markets and/or ~~continued~~ declines in John Deere’s and the Company’s financial performance,

outlook or credit ratings, which could impact John Deere’s and the Company’s ability to obtain funding in the future; ~~a resurgence in COVID cases following a reopening in any country, state, or region;~~ and the impact of the pandemic on demand for John Deere’s products and services. It is unclear when a sustained economic recovery could occur and what a recovery may look like. All of these factors could materially and adversely affect our business, liquidity, results of operations and financial position.

Significant changes in market liquidity conditions, changes in the Company’s credit ratings, and any failure to comply with financial covenants in credit agreements could impact access to funding and funding costs, which could reduce the Company’s earnings and cash flows. Financial market conditions could also negatively impact customer access to capital for purchases of John Deere’s products and customer confidence and purchase decisions, borrowing and repayment practices, and the number and size of customer loan delinquencies and defaults. A debt crisis, in Europe or elsewhere, could negatively impact currencies, global financial markets, social and political stability, funding sources and costs, asset and obligation values, customers, and Company operations and ~~results. Security breaches, cybersecurity attacks, technology failures, and other disruptions to the Company’s information technology infrastructure also could materially affect~~ results. The Company’s operations could be impaired by changes in the equity, bond, and other financial markets, which would negatively affect earnings.

The withdrawal of the United Kingdom from the European Union and the perceptions as to the impact of the withdrawal may adversely affect business activity, political stability and economic conditions in the United Kingdom, the European Union and elsewhere. The economic conditions and outlook could be further adversely affected by (i) uncertainty regarding any new or modified trade arrangements between the United Kingdom and the European Union and/or other countries, (ii) the risk that one or more other European Union countries could come under increasing pressure to leave the European Union, or (iii) the risk that the euro as the single currency of the Eurozone could cease to exist. Any of these developments, or the perception that any of these developments are likely to occur, could affect economic growth or business activity in the United Kingdom or the European Union, and could result in the relocation of businesses, cause business interruptions, lead to economic recession or depression, and impact the stability of the financial markets, availability of credit, currency exchange rates, interest rates, financial institutions, and political, financial and monetary systems. Any of these developments could affect our businesses, liquidity, results of operations and financial position.

The liquidity and ongoing profitability of the Company depend largely on timely access to capital in order to meet future cash flow requirements, and to fund operations, costs, and purchases of John Deere’s products. If general economic conditions deteriorate or capital markets become more volatile, including as a result of the COVID pandemic, funding could be unavailable or insufficient. Additionally, customer confidence levels may result in declines in credit applications and increases in delinquencies and default rates, which could materially impact the Company’s write-offs and provision for credit losses.

In addition, the Company’s business is closely related to John Deere’s business. Further information, including factors that could materially affect the Company’s and John Deere’s financial results, is included in the most recent Deere & Company Form 10-K and Form 10-Q (including, but not limited to, the factors discussed in Item 1A. Risk Factors of the Form 10-K and quarterly reports on Form 10-Q) and other Deere & Company and Capital Corporation quarterly and other filings with the SEC.

Critical Accounting Policies

See the Company’s critical accounting policies discussed in the Management’s Discussion and Analysis of the most recent annual report filed on Form 10-K. There have been no material changes to these ~~policies.~~policies, other than as described below related to the allowance for credit losses, as a result of the adoption of ASU No. 2016-13 during the first quarter of 2021.

Capital Resources and Liquidity

For additional information on the Company’s dependence on and relationships with Deere & Company, see the Company’s most recently filed annual report on Form 10-K.

During the first ~~nine~~three months of 2021, the aggregate net cash provided by operating and investing activities was used primarily to decrease borrowings. Net cash provided by operating activities was $300.7 million in the first three months of 2021. Net cash provided by investing activities totaled $327.7 million in the first three months of 2021, primarily due to the collections of Receivables (excluding wholesale) exceeding the cost of Receivables acquired (excluding wholesale) by $856.4 million and the proceeds from sales of equipment on operating leases exceeding the cost of equipment on operating leases acquired by $50.4 million, partially offset by an increase in net wholesale receivables of $632.5 million. Net cash used for financing activities totaled $691.4 million in the first three months of 2021, resulting primarily from a net decrease in total external borrowings of $423.7 million, dividends paid of $135.0 million, and a net decrease in payables to John Deere of $123.6 million. Cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash decreased $56.3 million during the first three months of 2021.

During the first three months of 2020, the aggregate net cash provided by operating and ~~financing~~investing activities was used primarily to ~~fund Receivables and Leases.~~decrease borrowings. Net cash provided by operating activities was ~~$1,092.7~~$342.0 million in the first ~~nine~~three months of 2020. Net cash provided by ~~financing~~investing activities totaled ~~$161.7~~$775.3 million in the first nine months of 2020, resulting primarily from a net increase in payables to John Deere of $1,775.8 million, partially offset by a net decrease in total external borrowings of $1,342.2 million and dividends paid of $250.0 million. Net cash used for investing activities totaled $1,240.3 million in the first ninethree months of 2020, primarily due to the collections of Receivables (excluding wholesale) exceeding the cost of Receivables acquired (excluding wholesale) ~~exceeding the collections~~by $1,441.9 million, partially offset by an increase in net wholesale receivables of ~~Receivables (excluding wholesale) by $1,083.3~~$452.0 million and the cost of equipment on operating leases acquired exceeding proceeds from sales of equipment on operating leases by ~~$381.1~~$210.8 million. Net cash used for financing activities totaled

$1,097.9 million ~~partially offset by~~in the first three months of 2020, resulting primarily from a net decrease in total external borrowings of $520.0 million, a net ~~wholesale receivables~~decrease in payables to John Deere of ~~$353.8~~$445.4 million, and dividends paid of $125.0 million. Cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash increased ~~$13.2~~$18.2 million during the first ~~nine~~three months of 2020.

During the first nine months of 2019, the aggregate net cash provided by operating and financing activities was used primarily to fund Receivables and Leases. Net cash provided by operating activities was $1,364.9 million in the first nine months of 2019. Net cash provided by financing activities totaled $2,627.5 million in the first nine months of 2019, resulting primarily from an increase in total external borrowings of $1,984.4 million and a net increase in payables to John Deere of $948.1 million, partially offset by dividends paid of $280.0 million. Net cash used for investing activities totaled $3,958.7 million in the first nine months of 2019, primarily due to an increase in net wholesale receivables of $2,362.5 million and the cost of equipment on operating leases acquired exceeding proceeds from sales of equipment on operating leases by $802.1 million and the cost of Receivables acquired (excluding wholesale) exceeding the collections of Receivables (excluding wholesale) by $668.7 million. Cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash increased $27.4 million during the first nine months of 2019.

The Company relies on its ability to raise substantial amounts of funds to finance its Receivable and Lease portfolios. The Company has access to most global markets at a reasonable cost and expects to have sufficient sources of global funding and liquidity to meet its funding needs. The Company’s ability to meet its debt obligations is supported in a number of ways. The assets of the Company are self-liquidating in nature. A solid equity position is available to absorb unusual losses on these assets and all commercial paper is backed by unsecured, committed borrowing lines from various banks. Liquidity is also provided by the Company’s ability to securitize these assets and through the issuance of term debt. Additionally, liquidity may be provided through loans from John Deere. The Company’s commercial paper outstanding at ~~August~~January 31, 2021, November 1, 2020, and February 2, 2020 ~~November 3, 2019, and July 28, 2019~~ was ~~$940.9~~$299.9 million, ~~$1,345.5~~$125.0 million, and ~~$1,026.1~~$1,131.4 million, respectively, while the total cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities position was ~~$627.3~~$624.7 million, ~~$635.8~~$676.8 million, and ~~$656.0~~$644.9 million, respectively. The amount of cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities held by foreign subsidiaries was ~~$124.6~~$124.0 million, ~~$134.7~~$163.7 million, and ~~$157.1~~$152.6 million at ~~August~~January 31, 2021, November 1, 2020, and February 2, 2020, ~~November 3, 2019, and July 28, 2019,~~ respectively.

Capital Corporation has a revolving credit agreement to utilize bank conduit facilities to securitize retail notes ~~(See~~(see Note 5). ~~At August 2,~~During November 2020, ~~this facility had~~the agreement was renewed with a total capacity, or “financing limit,” of ~~$3,500.0~~$2,000.0 million of secured financings at any time. After a two-year revolving period, unless the banks and Capital Corporation agree to renew, Capital Corporation would liquidate the secured borrowings over time as payments on the retail notes are collected. At ~~August 2, 2020, $2,068.0~~January 31, 2021, $1,549.9 million of short-term securitization borrowings were outstanding under the agreement.

During the first ~~nine~~three months of ~~2020,~~2021, the Company issued ~~$3,062.5~~$1,523.1 million and retired ~~$5,008.7~~$1,367.7 million of long-term borrowings, which were primarily medium-term notes. During the first ~~nine~~three months of ~~2020,~~2021, the Company also ~~issued $3,274.3 million and~~ retired ~~$2,225.8~~$705.8 million of retail note securitization borrowings and maintained an average commercial paper balance of ~~$1,632.1~~$705.4 million. At ~~August 2, 2020,~~January 31, 2021, the Company’s funding profile included ~~$1,012.0~~$314.1 million of commercial paper and other notes payable, ~~$5,324.1~~$3,951.5 million of securitization borrowings, ~~$3,796.3~~$5,227.4 million of loans from John Deere, ~~$25,402.3~~$25,184.3 million of unsecured term debt,

and ~~$4,173.2~~$4,342.5 million of equity capital. The Company’s funding profile may be altered to reflect such factors as relative costs of funding sources, assets available for securitizations, and capital market accessibility.

Total interest-bearing indebtedness amounted to ~~$35,534.7~~$34,677.3 million at ~~August 2, 2020,~~January 31, 2021, compared with ~~$34,362.2~~$35,145.9 million at November ~~3, 2019~~1, 2020 and ~~$34,757.0~~$33,450.6 million at ~~July 28, 2019.~~February 2, 2020. Total short-term indebtedness amounted to ~~$15,042.6~~$15,179.8 million at ~~August 2, 2020,~~January 31, 2021, compared with ~~$13,309.8~~$15,834.8 million at November ~~3, 2019~~1, 2020 and ~~$14,721.6~~$12,588.7 million at ~~July 28, 2019.~~February 2, 2020. Total long-term indebtedness amounted to ~~$20,492.1~~$19,497.5 million at ~~August 2, 2020,~~January 31, 2021, compared with ~~$21,052.4~~$19,311.1 million at November ~~3, 2019~~1, 2020 and ~~$20,035.4~~$20,861.9 million at ~~July 28, 2019.~~February 2, 2020. The ratio of total interest-bearing debt, including securitization indebtedness, to stockholder’s equity was ~~8.5~~8.0 to 1 at ~~August 2, 2020,~~January 31, 2021, compared with ~~8.3~~8.2 to 1 at November ~~3, 2019~~1, 2020 and ~~8.5~~8.2 to 1 at ~~July 28, 2019.~~February 2, 2020.

Stockholder’s equity was ~~$4,173.2~~$4,342.5 million at ~~August 2, 2020,~~January 31, 2021, compared with ~~$4,128.4~~$4,298.2 million at November ~~3, 2019~~1, 2020 and ~~$4,110.1~~$4,097.3 million at ~~July 28, 2019.~~February 2, 2020. The increase in the first ~~nine~~three months of ~~2020~~2021 was primarily due to net income attributable to the Company of ~~$271.3~~$166.7 million and a change in the cumulative translation adjustment of ~~$28.2~~$35.7 million, partially offset by dividends paid of ~~$250.0~~$135.0 million and the adoption of ASU No. 2016-13 of $26.2 million.

Lines of Credit

The Company has access to bank lines of credit with various banks throughout the world. Some of the lines are available to both the Company and Deere & Company. Worldwide lines of credit totaled ~~$8,071.1~~$8,014.2 million at ~~August 2, 2020, $6,051.7~~January 31, 2021, $6,654.2 million of which were unused. For the purpose of computing unused credit lines, commercial paper and short-term bank borrowings, excluding secured borrowings and the current portion of

long-term borrowings, of the Company and Deere & Company were primarily considered to constitute utilization. Included in the total credit lines at ~~August 2, 2020~~January 31, 2021 was a 364-day credit facility agreement of $3,000.0 million, expiring in fiscal April 2021. In addition, total credit lines included long-term credit facility agreements of $2,500.0 million, expiring in fiscal April 2024, and $2,500.0 million, expiring in fiscal April 2025. These credit agreements require the Company to maintain its consolidated ratio of earnings to fixed charges at not less than 1.05 to 1 for each fiscal quarter and its ratio of senior debt, excluding securitization indebtedness, to capital base (total subordinated debt and stockholder’s equity excluding accumulated other comprehensive income (loss)) at not more than 11 to 1 at the end of any fiscal quarter. All of the requirements of the credit agreements have been met during the periods included in the consolidated financial statements.

Debt Ratings

The Company’s ability to obtain funding is affected by its debt ratings, which are closely related to the outlook for and the financial condition of John Deere, and the nature and availability of support facilities, such as its lines of credit and the support agreement from Deere & Company.

To access public debt capital markets, the Company relies on credit rating agencies to assign short-term and long-term credit ratings to the Company’s securities as an indicator of credit quality for fixed income investors. A security rating is not a recommendation by the rating agency to buy, sell, or hold Company securities. A credit rating agency may change or withdraw Company ratings based on its assessment of the Company’s current and future ability to meet interest and principal repayment obligations. Each agency’s rating should be evaluated independently of any other rating. Lower credit ratings generally result in higher borrowing costs, including costs of derivative transactions, and reduced access to debt capital markets.

The senior long-term and short-term debt ratings and outlook currently assigned to unsecured Company debt securities by the rating agencies engaged by the Company are the same as those for John Deere. Those ratings are as follows:


	Senior Long-Term	Short-Term	Outlook
Fitch Ratings	A	F1	Stable
Moody’s Investors Service, Inc.	A2	Prime-1	Stable
Standard & Poor’s	A	A-1	Stable

Dividends

Capital Corporation declared and paid cash dividends to John Deere Financial Services, Inc. (JDFS) of ~~$250.0~~$135.0 million and ~~$280.0~~$125.0 million in the first ~~nine~~three months of ~~2020~~2021 and ~~2019,~~2020, respectively. In each case, JDFS paid comparable dividends to Deere & Company.

On August 27, 2020, Capital Corporation declared a $25.0 million dividend to be paid to JDFS on September 15, 2020. JDFS, in turn, declared a $25.0 million dividend to Deere & Company, also payable on September 15, 2020.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

See the Company’s most recent annual report filed on Form 10-K (Part II, Item 7A). There has been no material change in this information.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

The Company’s principal executive officer and its principal financial officer have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (Act)) were effective as of ~~August 2, 2020,~~January 31, 2021, based on the evaluation of these controls and procedures required by Rule 13a-15(b) or 15d-15(b) of the Act. The Company implemented new loss forecast models for the estimation of the allowance for credit losses with the adoption of ASU No. 2016-13, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. The Company began using the models on November 2, 2020 in determining its allowance for credit losses, which is an estimate of credit losses expected over the life of the Company’s Receivable portfolio. In conjunction with this change, management has implemented new controls within the allowance for credit losses process. During the ~~third~~first quarter, there were no other changes that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

See the Company’s most recent annual report on Form 10-K (Part I, Item 1A).

~~The COVID pandemic resulted in additional risks that could materially adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations and/or cash flows.~~

COVID was identified in late 2019 and has spread globally. The rapid spread has resulted in governments and other authorities implementing numerous measures to try to contain the virus, such as travel bans and restrictions, quarantines, shelter-in-place orders and shutdowns. These measures have impacted and may further impact all or portions of the Company’s workforce and operations and the operations of customers. Countries around the world have been affected by the pandemic and have taken containment measures. Considerable uncertainty exists regarding such measures and potential future measures. Restrictions on the Company’s workforce’s access to its facilities could limit its ability to meet customer servicing expectations and have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, cash flows and results of operations. There is no certainty that measures taken by governmental authorities will be sufficient to mitigate the risks posed by the virus, and the Company’s ability to perform critical functions could be harmed.

The COVID pandemic caused a global recession and there is no certainty about when a sustained economic recovery may occur. The COVID pandemic has also significantly increased economic and demand uncertainty and has led to disruption and volatility in the global capital markets, which increases the cost of capital and adversely impacts access to capital. Economic uncertainties could affect the value of the equipment financed or leased, the demand for financings and the financial condition and credit risk of our dealers and customers. Risks related to negative economic conditions are described in our risk factor titled “Negative economic conditions and outlook can materially weaken demand for John Deere’s equipment and services, limit access to funding and result in higher funding costs for the Company and John Deere” under “Risk Factors” in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended November 3, 2019.

Uncertainties related to the magnitude and duration of the COVID pandemic may significantly adversely affect John Deere’s and the Company’s business and outlook. These uncertainties include: prolonged reduction or closure of John Deere’s and the Company’s operations, or a delayed recovery in such operations; additional closures as mandated or otherwise made necessary by governmental authorities; absence of employees due to illness; requests by the Company’s customers or dealers for payment deferrals and contract modifications; the impact of disruptions in the global capital markets and/or declines in John Deere’s and the Company’s financial performance, outlook or credit ratings, which could impact John Deere’s and the Company’s ability to obtain funding in the future; a resurgence in COVID cases following a reopening in any country, state, or region; and the impact of the pandemic on demand for John Deere’s products and services. It is unclear when a sustained economic recovery could occur and what a recovery may look like. All of these factors could materially and adversely affect our business, liquidity, results of operations and financial position.

The ultimate magnitude of COVID effects, including the extent of its impact on the Company’s financial and operational results, which could be material, will be determined by the length of time that the pandemic continues, its effect on the demand for our services, as well as the effect of governmental regulations imposed in response to the pandemic. We cannot at this time predict the impact of the COVID pandemic, but it could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and/or cash flows.

There has been no ~~additional~~ material change ~~to the other risks included~~ in ~~the most recent annual report filed on Form 10-K.~~this information. The risks described in the annual report on Form 10-K, and the “Safe Harbor Statement” in this report, are not the only risks faced by the Company. Additional risks and uncertainties may also materially affect

the Company’s business, financial condition, or operating results. One should not consider the risk factors to be a complete discussion of risks, uncertainties, and assumptions.
