Condensed Notes to Interim Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
(1) Organization and Consolidation
The information in the notes and related commentary are presented in a format which includes data grouped as follows:
Consolidated – Represents the consolidation of the equipment operations and financial services.Deere & Company has been developing innovative solutions to help its customers become more profitable for more than 185 years. References to “DeereDeere & Company”Company, John Deere, Deere, or “the Company” refer to the entire enterprise.
Equipment Operations – RepresentsCompany include its consolidated subsidiaries and consolidated variable interest entities (VIEs). The Company is managed through the enterprise without financial services, while including the Company’sfollowing operating segments: production and precision agriculture operations,(PPA), small agriculture and turf operations,(SAT), construction and forestry operations,(CF), and other corporate assets, liabilities, revenues,financial services (FS). References to “equipment operations” include production and expenses not reflected within financial services.
Financial Services – Represents the Company’s financing operations.precision agriculture, small agriculture and turf, and construction and forestry, while references to “agriculture and turf” include both production and precision agriculture and small agriculture and turf.
The Company uses a 52/53 week fiscal year with quarters ending on the last Sunday in the reporting period. The first quarter ends for fiscal year 20222023 and 20212022 were January 30, 202229, 2023 and January 31, 2021,30, 2022, respectively. Both periods contained 13 weeks. Unless otherwise stated, references to particular years, quarters, or quartersmonths refer to the Company’s fiscal years generally ending in October and the associated periods in those fiscal years.
Prior to fiscal year 2021, the operating results of the Wirtgen Group (Wirtgen) were incorporated into the Company’s consolidated financial statements on a one-month lag. The reporting lag was eliminated resulting in four months of Wirtgen’s activity in the first quarter of 2021. The effect was an increase to “Net sales” of $270 million, which the Company considers immaterial to construction and forestry’s annual net sales.
Variable Interest Entities
The Company consolidates certain variable interest entities (VIEs) related to retail note securitizations (see Note 10).
The Company also has an interest in a joint venture that manufactures construction equipment in Indaiatuba, Brazil for local and overseas markets. The joint venture is a VIE; however, the Company is not the primary beneficiary. Therefore, the entity’s financial results are not fully consolidated in the Company’s consolidated financial statements, but are included on the equity basis. The maximum exposure to loss was $14 million, $9 million, and $7 million at January 30, 2022, October 31, 2021, and January 31, 2021, respectively. On August 19, 2021, the Company announced the dissolution of the joint venture with Hitachi Construction Machinery Co., Ltd. and the purchase of the shares in the relevant joint venture manufacturing entities including the above referenced factory in Indaiatuba, Brazil. The transaction is expected to close in the second quarter of 2022, subject to the receipt of certain required regulatory approvals and satisfaction of certain other customary closing conditions.
(2) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and New Accounting Standards
Quarterly Financial Statements
The interim consolidated financial statements of Deere & Company have been prepared by the Company, 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 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 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 reportAnnual Report on Form 10-K. Results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of those to be expected for the fiscal year.
7
Use of Estimates in Financial Statements
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. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Revenue Recognition
Prior to fiscal year 2022, certain goods were shipped to Canadian dealers on a consignment basis under which the risk and rewards of ownership were not transferred to the dealer at the time the goods were delivered. Accordingly, sales were not recorded until a retail customer purchased the goods. The dealer contract in Canada was changed for goods delivered after November 1, 2021, resulting in transfer of control and revenue recognition upon delivery. For certain goods delivered to Canadian dealers prior to November 1, 2021, the dealer consignment terms already in place remain in effect. As of January 30, 2022 and October 31, 2021, the remaining consigned inventory was $91 million and $150 million, respectively.
New Accounting Standards
The Company closely monitors all Accounting Standard Updates (ASUs) issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board and other authoritative guidance. ASUs adopted in 20222023 did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements, andstatements. ASUs to be adopted in future periods are being evaluated and at this point are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.
(3)Cash Flow Information
All cash flows from the changes in trade accounts and notes receivable are classified as operating activities in the statement of consolidated cash flows as these receivables arise from sales to the Company’s customers. Cash flows from financing receivables that are related to sales to the Company’s customers are also included in operating activities. The remaining financing receivables are related to the financing of equipment sold by independent dealers and are included in investing activities.
The Company had the following non-cash operating and investing activities that were not included in the statement of consolidated cash flows. The Company transferred inventory to equipment on operating leases of $20 million and $84 million in the first three months of 2022 and 2021, respectively. The Company also had accounts payable related to purchases of property and equipment of $43 million and $39 million at January 30, 2022 and January 31, 2021, respectively.

Net cost | | $ | 10 | | $ | 25 | | | $ | 4 | | $ | 10 | |
The reduction in the 2023 pension net (benefit) cost is due to increases in the expected long-term return rates on plan assets and increases in discount rates. The components of net periodic pension and OPEB costs(benefit) cost excluding the service cost component are included in the line item “Other operating expenses” in the statementstatements of consolidated income. Overall pension and OPEB net costs decreased from the prior year due to reduced amortization of actuarial losses, partially offset by the impacts of the U.S. hourly pension plan remeasurement.
On November 17, 2021, employees represented by the International Union, United Automobile, Aerospace and Agricultural Implement Workers of America (UAW) approved a new collective bargaining agreement. In the first quarter of 2022, the Company remeasured the U.S. hourly pension plan due to the new collective bargaining agreement, which decreased the plan’s funded status by approximately $495 million and will increase pension expense in 2022 by nearly $80 million. For the first quarter of 2022, the remeasurement increased pension expense by $14 million, with $6 million negatively impacting operating profit.
1211
During the first three months of 2022, the Company contributed $18 million to its pension plans and $1,051 million to its OPEB plans. The OPEB contributions include a voluntary contribution of $1,000 million to a U.S. plan made on November 30, 2021. The Company presently anticipates contributing an additional $70 million to its pension plans and $86 million to its OPEB plans during the remainder of fiscal year 2022. These pension and OPEB contributions primarily include direct benefit payments from Company funds.

Generally, when receivables are 120 days delinquent the estimated uncollectible amount from the customer is written off to the allowance for credit losses. 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.

In the first quarter of 2023, the Company determined that the financial services business in Russia met the held for sale criteria. The financing receivables in Russia were reclassified to “Other assets” and the associated allowance for credit losses on financing receivableswas reversed (see Note 20). Excluding the portfolio in Russia, the allowance for credit losses decreased induring the first quarter of 2022 led by a decrease in2023, as the revolving charge accounts. This portfolio is benefitingfinancing receivables continue to benefit from favorablestrong fundamentals within the agricultural market conditions driven by higher commodity prices and net farm income, which is contributing to stronger payment performance.market.
A troubled debt restructuring is 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 three months of 2022, the Company identified 108 receivable contracts, primarily retail notes, as troubled debt restructurings with aggregate balances of $5 million pre-modification and $4 million post-modification. During the first three months of 2021, there were 98 receivable contracts, primarily retail notes, identified as troubled debt restructurings with aggregate balances of $5 million pre-modification and post-modification. During these same periods, there were no significant troubled debt restructurings that subsequently defaulted and were written off. At January 30, 2022, the Company had 0 commitments to lend to borrowers whose accounts were modified in troubled debt restructurings.

(10)(9) Securitization of Financing Receivables
As a part of its overall funding strategy, the Company periodically transfers certain financing receivables (retail notes) into 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 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, which in turn issue debt to investors, or to non-VIE banking operations, which provide funding directly to the Company. The funding provided by these third-parties results in secured borrowings, which are recorded as “Short-term securitization borrowings” on the balance sheet. The securitized retail notes are recorded as “Financing receivables securitized – net” on the balance sheet. The total restricted assets on the balance sheet related to these securitizations include the financing receivables 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 financing receivables securitized or a fixed percentage of the outstanding balance of the securitized financing receivables. 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 $2,649 million, $3,094 million, and $2,425 million at January 30, 2022, October 31, 2021, and January 31, 2021, respectively. The liabilities (short-term securitization borrowings and accrued interest) of these SPEs totaled $2,575 million, $3,024 million, and $2,403 million at January 30, 2022, October 31, 2021, and January 31, 2021, respectively. The credit holders of these SPEs do not have legal recourse to the Company’s general credit.
The Company has a revolving warehouse facility to utilize bank conduit facilities to securitize retail notes, described further in the following paragraphs. The facility was renewed in November 2021 with an expiration in November 2022 and a reduction of the total capacity or “financing limit” from $2,000 million to $1,000 million. As a result of the reduced capacity, the Company repurchased $511 million of outstanding short-term securitization borrowings in November 2021, in addition to the normal payments collected on the retail notes. At the end of the contractual revolving period, unless the banks and the Company agree to renew, the Company would liquidate the secured borrowings over time as payments on the retail notes are collected.
Through the revolving warehouse facility, 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 $767 million, $1,176 million, and $1,120 million at January 30, 2022, October 31, 2021, and January 31, 2021, respectively. The liabilities (short-term securitization borrowings and accrued interest) related to these conduits were $720 million, $1,113 million, and $1,097 million at January 30, 2022, October 31, 2021, and January 31, 2021, respectively.

The total assets of the unconsolidated conduits related to securitizations were $14 billion at January 30, 2022.
In addition, through the revolving warehouse facility, the Company transfers retail notes to banks, which may elect to fund the retail notes through the use of their own funding sources. These non-VIE banking operations are not consolidated since the Company does not have a controlling interest in them. 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 $200 million, $496 million, and $481 million at January 30, 2022, October 31, 2021, and January 31, 2021, respectively. The liabilities (short-term securitization borrowings and accrued interest) were $188 million, $470 million, and $471 million at January 30, 2022, October 31, 2021, and January 31, 2021, respectively.

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 January 30, 2022, the maximum remaining term of all securitized retail notes was approximately six years.

The Company generally determines its total warranty liability by applying historical claims rate experience to the estimated amount of equipment that has been sold and is still under warranty based on dealer inventories and retail sales. The historical claims rate is primarily determined by a review of five-year claims costs and current quality developments.
The premiums for extended warranties are recognized in Other income in the statements of consolidated income in proportion to the costs expected to be incurred over the contract period. TheseThe unamortized extended warranty premiums (deferred revenue) included in the following table totaled $781$901 million and $656$781 million at January 30, 202229, 2023 and January 31, 2021,30, 2022, respectively.

(17)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 the remaining financing 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 included adjustments related to fair value hedges.

The following is a description of the valuation methodologies the Company uses to measure certain financial instruments on the balance sheet items at fair value:
Marketable securities – The portfolio of investments is primarily valued on a market approach (matrix pricing model) in which all significant inputs are observable or can be derived from or corroborated by observable market data such as interest rates, yield curves, volatilities, credit risk, and prepayment speeds. Funds are primarily valued using closing prices in the fund’s net asset value, based onactive market in which the fair value of the underlying securities.investment trades.
Derivatives – The Company’s derivative financial instruments consist of interest rate contracts (swaps), foreign currency exchange contracts (futures, forwards, and swaps), and cross-currency interest rate contracts (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.
Financing 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
Inventories – The impairment was based on net realizable values.value.
Property and equipment - net – Impairments are recognized if fair value is lower than the carrying amount. The valuations were based on cost and market approaches. The inputs include replacement cost estimates adjusted for physical deterioration and economic obsolescence or quoted prices when available (see Note 20).
Other assets – The impairments were measured at the fair value of the right of use operating lease asset.obsolescence.
(18) Derivative Instruments
It is theThe Company’s policy thatis to execute 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’s financial services operations manage the relationship of the types and amounts of their funding sources to their receivable and lease portfolio 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 buying, selling, and financing in currencies other than the functional currencies. In addition, the Company has interest rate and foreign currency exposuresexposure at certain equipment operations units for sales incentive programs.
All derivatives are recorded at fair value on the balance sheet.sheets. Cash collateral received or paid is not offset against the derivative fair values on the balance sheet. The cash flows from thesethe derivative contracts were recorded in operating activities in the statementstatements of consolidated cash flows. 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
21
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
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 January 29, 2023, October 30, 2022, October 31, 2021, and January 31, 202130, 2022 were $2,700$1,950 million, $2,700$1,950 million, and $2,350$2,700 million, respectively. Fair value gains or losses on cash flow hedges were recorded in other comprehensive income (OCI) and are subsequently reclassified into interest expense in the same periods during which the hedged transactions affectedimpact earnings. These amounts offset the effects of interest rate changes on the related borrowings.
The amount of lossgain recorded in OCI at January 30, 202229, 2023 that is expected to be reclassified to interest expense or other operating expenses in the next twelve months if interest rates or exchange rates remain unchanged is $4$38 million after-tax. NaNNo gains or losses were reclassified from OCI to earnings based on the probability that the original forecasted transaction would not occur.
Fair Value Hedges
Certain interest rate contracts (swaps) were designated as fair value hedges of borrowings. The total notional amounts of the receive-fixed/pay-variable interest rate contracts at January 29, 2023, October 30, 2022, October 31, 2021, and
25
January 31, 202130, 2022 were $8,307$10,802 million, $8,043$10,112 million, and $8,333$8,307 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.

Counterparty Risk and Collateral
Derivative instruments are subject to significant concentrations of credit risk to the banking sector. The Company manages individual counterparty exposure by setting limits that consider the credit rating of the counterparty, the credit default swap spread of the counterparty, and other financial commitments and exposures between the Company and the counterparty banks. All interest rate derivatives are transacted under International Swaps and Derivatives Association (ISDA) documentation. Some of these agreements include credit support provisions. Each master agreement permits the net settlement of amounts owed in the event of default or termination.
Certain of the Company’s derivative agreements contain credit support provisions that may require the Company to post collateral based on the size of the net liability positions and credit ratings. The aggregate fair value of all derivatives with credit-risk-related contingent features that were in a net liability position at January 29, 2023, October 30, 2022, October 31, 2021, and January 31, 202130, 2022 was $213$781 million, $135$1,113 million, and $99$213 million, respectively. In accordance with the limits established in these agreements, the Company posted $349 million, $701 million, and $18 million of cash collateral at January 29, 2023, October 30, 2022. The Company posted 0 cash collateral in accordance with the limits established in those agreements at either October 31, 2021 or2022, and January 31, 2021.30, 2022, respectively. In addition, the Company paid $8 million of collateral either in cash or pledged securities that was outstanding at January 29, 2023, October 30, 2022, October 31, 2021, and January 31, 202130, 2022 to participate in an international futures market to hedge currency exposure, not included in the table below.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Overview
Organization
The Company’s equipment operations generate revenues and cash primarilyCompany generates net sales from the sale of equipment to John Deere dealers and distributors. The equipment operations manufactureCompany manufactures and distributedistributes a full line of agricultural equipment; a variety of commercial and consumer equipment; and a broad range of equipment for construction, roadbuilding, and forestry. These operations (collectively known as the “equipment operations”) are managed through the production and precision agriculture, small agriculture and turf, and construction and forestry operating segments. The Company’s financial services primarily providesegment provides credit services, which mainly finance sales and leases of equipment by John Deere dealers and trade receivables purchased from the equipment operations.dealers. In addition, the financial services segment provides wholesale financing to dealers of the foregoing equipment, finances retail revolving charge accounts, and offers extended equipment warranties.
Smart Industrial Operating Model and Leap Ambitions
The Company’s Smart Industrial operating model is focused on making significant investments, strengthening the Company’s capabilities in digital, automation, autonomy, and alternative propulsion technologies. These technologies are intended to increase worksite efficiency, improve yields, lower input costs, and ease labor constraints. The Company’s Leap Ambitions are goals designed to boost economic value and sustainability for the Company’s customers. The Company anticipates opportunities in this area, as the Company and its customers have a vested interest in sustainable practices.
In February 2023, the Company released its 2022 Sustainability Report, available at JohnDeere.com/sustainability. This report identifies important progress on the Company’s Leap Ambitions in fiscal year 2022. The information in the following discussionour 2022 Sustainability Report is presented innot incorporated by reference into, and does not form a format that includes information grouped as consolidated, equipment operations, and financial services. The Company also views its operations as consistingpart of, two geographic areas: the U.S. and Canada and outside the U.S. and Canada. The Company’s operating segments consist of production and precision agriculture, small agriculture and turf, construction and forestry, and financial services.this Form 10-Q.

Forestrypercent in 2023. Asia industry sales are forecasted to be down moderately in 2023. On an industry basis, North American construction equipment and compact construction equipment sales are both expected to be flat to up 5 percent in 2023. Global forestry and global roadbuilding industry sales are each expected to be flat.
Company Trends – Customers’ demand for integration of technology into equipment is a market trend underlying the Company’s Smart Industrial operating model and Leap Ambitions framework. Customers have sought to improve profitability, productivity, and sustainability through technology. The Company’s approach to technology involves hardware and software, guidance, connectivity and digital solutions, automation and machine intelligence, autonomy, and alternative propulsion technologies. This technology is incorporated into products within each of the Company’s operating segments.
Customers continue to adopt technology integrated in the John Deere portfolio of “smart” machines, systems, and solutions. The Company expects this trend to persist for the foreseeable future.
Demand for the Company’s equipment remains strong, as order books are full through a majority of 2023. Agricultural fundamentals are expected to remain solid into 2023, and retail demand will comprise most of 2023 sales. The North American retail customer fleet age of combines and large tractors remains above average, and dealer inventories are historically low due to the manufacturing and supply chain constraints over the past few years. The Company expects the replenishment of dealer stock inventory to occur in 2024. Crop prices remain favorable to our customers in part due to low stock-to-use ratios for key grains. The Company expects to sell more large agricultural equipment in 2023 than 2022 in North America, Europe, and South America. Demand for small agricultural equipment remains stable, while turf and utility equipment product sales are expected to be 10lower due to 15 percent higher. Global industry roadbuildingthe overall U.S. economic conditions. Construction equipment salesmarkets are forecasted to be up 5steady. Rental fleets replenishment, the energy industry, and U.S. infrastructure spend are expected to 10 percent.offset moderation in residential

home construction. Roadbuilding demand remains strongest in the U.S., largely offset by softening demand in Europe and parts of Asia. Net income for the Company’s financial services operations is expected to be slightly lower than fiscal year 20212022 due to less-favorable financing spreads as a result of heightened interest rates, higher provision for credit losses,selling, administrative and general expenses, and lower gains on operating lease residual values,operating-lease dispositions, partially offset by higher average portfolio balances.
Additional Trends – The Company experienced supply chain disruptions and inflationary pressures in 2022. These trends continued into 2023. While these are two distinct issues and discussed separately below, their impact may be intertwined.
Supply chain disruptions impacted many aspects of the business, including parts availability, increased production costs, and higher selling, general,inventory levels. Past due deliveries from suppliers were at elevated levels during 2022. Although past due deliveries remain elevated, the Company experienced improvement during the first quarter of 2023. The reduction in supply chain disruptions contributed to higher levels of production. The Company implemented the following mitigation efforts to minimize the impact of supply chain disruptions on its ability to meet customer demand:
•Worked with the supply base to obtain allocations and administrative expenses. These factorsimprove on-time deliveries of parts.
•Multi-sourced some parts and materials.
•Provided resources to suppliers to address constraints.
•Entered into long-term contracts for some critical components.
•Utilized alternative freight carriers to expedite delivery.
While supply chain disruptions are expected to persist into 2023, the Company is working diligently to secure the parts and components that customers need to deliver essential food and infrastructure more profitably and sustainably. Although the Company experienced some improvement in this area during the first quarter of 2023, concerns remain and this issue could impact our ability to meet customer demand in the remainder of 2023.
Inflation has continued to be partiallya pervasive feature in 2023, increasing the cost of purchased components, energy, salaries, and wages. Higher costs due to general business inflation were offset by income earnedprice realization, which mitigated the impact of inflation on the Company’s operating results. The Company expects inflation to continue in 2023 resulting in higher costs. If customers are unwilling to accept increases in cost of John Deere products, or the Company is otherwise unable to offset increases in production costs, inflation could have an adverse effect on the Company’s operations and financial condition.
Central bank policy interest rates increased in the first quarter of 2023 and are projected to continue to increase during 2023 but at a higher average portfolio.moderating pace compared to 2022. Most retail receivables are fixed rate, while wholesale financing receivables are floating rate. The Company has both fixed and floating rate borrowings. The Company manages the risk of interest rate fluctuations by balancing the types and amounts of its funding sources to its financing receivable and equipment on operating lease portfolios. Accordingly, the Company enters into interest rate swap agreements to manage its interest rate exposure. Historically, rising interest rates impact the Company’s borrowings sooner than the benefit is realized from the financing receivable and equipment on operating lease portfolios. As a result, the Company’s financial services operations experienced $53 million (after-tax) of less favorable financing spreads in the first quarter of 2023 compared to 2022. The Company expects spread compression to persist during 2023.
Supply chain disruptions, inflationary pressures, and rising interest rates are driven by factors outside of the Company’s control, and as a result, the Company cannot reasonably foresee when these conditions will subside.
Items of Concern and Uncertainties – Other items of concern include global and regional political conditions, economic and trade policies, uncertaintyimposition of the effectiveness of governmental and private sector actions to address the ongoing pandemic,new or retaliatory tariffs against certain countries or covering certain products, post-pandemic effects, capital market disruptions, changes in demand and pricing for new and used equipment, and the other items discussed in the “Safe Harbor Statement” below. Significantsignificant fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, and volatility in the priceprices of many commodities, and supply chain disruptionscommodities. These items could also impact the Company’s results.
The Company’s first quarter performance was noteworthy given production issues following the delayed ratification of the UAW contract in late November as well as persistent challenges posed by the supply chain and pandemic. These factors contributed to higher production costs. Demand for agriculture and construction equipment is expected to continue to benefit from strong fundamentals. The Company continues to work closelyis making investments in technology and in strengthening its capabilities in digital, automation, autonomy, and alternative propulsion technologies. As with key suppliers to manage through the dynamic environmentmost technology investments, marketplace adoption and enable the Company’s dealers and customers to deliver food production and critical infrastructure. The Company remains committed, above all else, to safeguarding the health and well-beingmonetization of its employees.

CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY
The discussionSources of capital resourcesLiquidity, Key Metrics and liquidity has been organized to review separately, where appropriate, the Company’s consolidated totals, equipment operations, and financial services operations.
Consolidated
Cash outflows from consolidated operating activities in the first three months of 2022 were $2,553 million. This resulted mainly from a working capital change and a $1,000 million voluntary contribution to a U.S. OPEB plan. These were partially offset by net income adjusted for non-cash provisions. Cash inflows from investing activities were $648 million in the first three months of this year. The primary driver was collections of receivables (excluding receivables related to sales) and proceeds from sales of equipment on operating leases exceeding the cost of receivables and equipment on operating leases acquired, partially offset by purchases of property and equipment. Cash outflows from financing activities were $1,577 million in the first three months of 2022. Cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash decreased $3,556 million during the first three months of this year.
In February 2022, the Company acquired majority ownership in Kreisel Electric, Inc., a battery technology provider based in Austria. The initial cash outlay was €239 million, which was financed from cash on hand (see Note 21). Additional cash requirements anticipated in the remainder of 2022 include the dissolution of the joint venture agreement between the Company and Hitachi Construction Machinery Co., Ltd. (Hitachi). In connection with the termination, the Company will purchase all of Hitachi’s shares in the relevant joint venture manufacturing entities and receive certain intellectual property rights. The initial cash consideration consists of $275 million for the shares and an intellectual property license. The transaction is expected to close in the second quarter of 2022, subject to the receipt of certain required regulatory approvals and satisfaction of certain other customary closing conditions. This consideration will be paid out of cash on hand.
Positive cash flows from consolidated operating activities in the first three months of 2021 were $143 million. This resulted primarily from net income adjusted for non-cash provisions partially offset by changes in working capital. Cash inflows from investing activities were $579 million in the first three months of 2021, largely due to collections of receivables (excluding receivables related to sales) and proceeds from sales of equipment on operating leases exceeding the cost of receivables and equipment on operating leases acquired. This was partially offset by purchases of property and equipment. Negative cash flows from financing activities were $933 million in the first three months of 2021. Cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash decreased $108 million during the first three months of 2021.Balance Sheet Data
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 in the short term and long term.cost. Sources of liquidity for the Company include cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities, funds from operations, the issuance of commercial paper and term debt, the securitization of retail notes (both public and private markets), and committed and uncommitted bank lines of credit. The Company’sCompany closely monitors its liquidity sources against the cash requirements and expects to have sufficient sources of global funding and liquidity to meet its funding needs in the short term (next 12 months) and long term (beyond 12 months). The Company operates in multiple industries, which have different funding requirements. The production and precision agriculture, small agriculture and turf, and construction and forestry segments are capital intensive and are typically subject to seasonal variations in financing requirements for inventories and certain receivables from dealers. However, the patterns of seasonality in inventory have been affected by increases in production rates and supply chain disruptions experienced during fiscal year 2022, which continue to impact inventory levels during 2023. The financial services operations rely on their ability to raise substantial amounts of funds to finance their receivable and lease portfolios.

John Deere Capital Corporation (Capital Corporation), a U.S. financial services subsidiary, has a revolving warehouse facility to utilize bank conduit facilities to securitize retail notes (see Note 9). The facility was renewed in November 2022 with an expiration in November 2023 and increased the Company’s foreign subsidiaries returned $3,500total capacity or “financing limit” from $1,000 million to $1,500 million. At January 29, 2023, $786 million of cashsecuritization borrowings were outstanding under the facility. At the end of the contractual revolving period, unless the banks and cash equivalentsCapital Corporation agree to renew, Capital Corporation would liquidate the U.S.secured borrowings over time as payments on the retail notes are collected.
In the first three months of 2023, the financial services operations retired $849 million of retail note securitization borrowings, which are presented in “Increase (decrease) in total short-term borrowings.”
Lines of Credit. – The Company also has access to bank lines of credit with various banks throughout the world. Worldwide lines of credit totaled $8,519$8,327 million at January 30, 2022, $5,86529, 2023, $1,581 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, were primarily considered to constitute utilization. Included in the total credit lines at January 30, 202229, 2023 was a 364-day credit facility agreement of $3,000 million, expiring in fiscal April 2022.the second quarter of 2023. In addition, total credit lines included long-term credit facility agreements of $2,500 million, expiring in fiscal April 2025,the second quarter of 2026, and $2,500 million, expiring in fiscal March 2026.the second quarter of 2027. These credit agreements require Capital Corporation and other parts of the Company to maintain certain performance metrics and liquidity targets. The Company expects to extend the terms of these credit facilities. These credit agreements require John Deere Capital Corporation (Capital Corporation) to maintain its consolidated ratio of earnings to fixed charges at not less than 1.05 to 1 for each fiscal quarter and the 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. The credit agreements also require the equipment operations to maintain a ratio of total debt to total capital (total debt and stockholders’ equity excluding accumulated other comprehensive income (loss)) of 65 percent or less at the end of each fiscal quarter. Under this provision, the Company’s excess equity capacity and retained earnings balance free of restriction at January 30, 2022 was $15,452 million. Alternatively under this provision, the equipment operations had the capacity to incur additional debt of $28,697 million at January 30, 2022. All of these requirements of the credit agreements have been met during the periods included in the financial statements.

Debt Ratings. – 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

The equipment operations sell a significant portion of their trade receivables to financial services. Funds provided from operations are supplemented by external financing sources as needed.
Cash used for operating activities of the equipment operations,Certain statements contained herein, including intercompany cash flows, in the first three months of 2022 was $2,488 million. This resulted largely from a changesection entitled “Overview” relating to future events, expectations, and trends constitute “forward-looking statements” as defined in working capital and a $1,000 million voluntary contribution to a U.S. OPEB plan exceeding cash inflows from net income adjusted for non-cash provisions. Cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash decreased $3,592 million in the first three months of 2022.
Cash provided by operating activities of the equipment operations, including intercompany cash flows, in the first three months of 2021 was $348 million.

The equipment operations sell a significant portion of their trade receivables to financial services. See the previous consolidated discussion of trade receivables.
Inventories increased by $1,154 million during the first three months, primarily due to a seasonal increase. Inventories increased $1,979 million, compared to a year ago, due to higher forecasted shipment volumes and a raw material build-up related to the UAW work stoppage, partially offset by the effect of foreign currency translation. A majority of these inventories are valued on the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method.
Total interest-bearing debt, excluding finance lease liabilities, of the equipment operations was $10,229 million at January 30, 2022, compared with $10,373 million at October 31, 2021 and $10,494 million at January 31, 2021.

Financial Services
The financial services operations rely on their ability to raise substantial amounts of funds to finance their receivable and lease portfolios. Their primary sources of funds for this purpose are a combination of commercial paper, term debt, securitization of retail notes, equity capital, and borrowings from Deere & Company.
During the first three months of 2022 and 2021, the cash provided by operating and investing activities was used for financing activities. Cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash increased $36 million in the first three months of 2022 and decreased $37 million in the first three months of 2021.
Receivables and leases held by the financial services operations consist of retail notes originated in connection with financing of new and used equipment, operating leases, trade receivables, revolving charge accounts, sales-type and direct financing leases, and wholesale notes. Trade and financing receivables and equipment on operating leases decreased $1,149 million during the first quarter of 2022, primarily due to seasonal payments, and increased $2,490 million in the past 12 months. Total acquisition volumes of receivables (excluding trade and wholesale) and leases were 3 percent higher in the first three months of 2022, compared with the same period last year, as volumes of operating and finance leases, retail notes, and revolving charge accounts were higher compared to January 31, 2021.
Total external interest-bearing debt of the financial services operations was $37,026 million at January 30, 2022, compared with $37,978 million at October 31, 2021 and $35,415 million at January 31, 2021.

The financial services operations’ ratio of interest-bearing debt to stockholder’s equity was 7.4 to 1 at January 30, 2022, compared with 7.8 to 1 at October 31, 2021 and 7.6 to 1 at January 31, 2021.
Capital Corporation has a revolving warehouse facility to utilize bank conduit facilities to securitize retail notes (see Note 10). The facility was renewed in November 2021 with an expiration in November 2022 and a reduction of the total capacity or “financing limit” from $2,000 million to $1,000 million. As a result of the reduced capacity, the Company repurchased $511 million of outstanding short-term securitization borrowings in November 2021, in addition to the normal payments collected on the retail notes.
In the first three months of 2022, the financial services operations retired $1,123 million of retail note securitization borrowings, which are presented in “Increase (decrease) in total short-term borrowings.” In addition, during the first three months of 2022, the financial services operations issued $2,335 million and retired $1,816 million of long-term borrowings, which were primarily medium-term notes.

consumer borrowing patterns; consumer purchasing preferences; housing starts and supply; infrastructure investment; spending by municipalities and golf courses; and consumable input costs.
Factors affecting the Company’s construction and forestry equipment operations include consumer spending patterns; real estate and housing prices; the number of housing starts; interest rates; commodity prices such as oil and gas; the levels of public and non-residential construction; and investment in infrastructure. Prices for pulp, paper, lumber, and structural panels affect sales of forestry equipment.
Many of the factors affecting the production and precision agriculture, small agriculture and turf, and construction and forestry segments have been and may continue to be impacted by global economic conditions, including those resulting from the COVID pandemic and responses to the pandemic taken by governments and other authorities.
All of the Company’s businesses and its results are affected by general economic conditions in the global markets and industries in which the Company operates; customer confidence in general economic conditions; government spending and taxing; foreign currency exchange rates and their volatility, especially fluctuations in the value of the U.S. dollar; interest rates (including the availability of interbank overnight rate reference rates); inflation and deflation rates; changes in weather and climate patterns; the political and social stability of the global markets in which the Company operates; the effects of, or response to, terrorism and security threats; wars and other conflicts; natural disasters; and the spread of major epidemics or pandemics (including the COVID pandemic) and government and industry responses to such epidemics or pandemics, such as travel restrictions and extended shut downs of businesses.
Continued uncertainties related to the magnitude, duration, and persistent effects of the COVID pandemic may significantly adversely affect the Company’s business and outlook. These uncertainties include, among other things: the duration and impact of the resurgence in COVID cases in any country, state, or region; the emergence, contagiousness, and threat of new and different strains of virus; the availability, acceptance, and effectiveness of vaccines; additional closures as mandated or otherwise made necessary by governmental authorities; disruptions in the supply chain, including those caused by industry capacity constraints, material availability, and global logistics delays and constraints arising from, among other things, the transportation capacity of ocean shipping containers, and continued disruptions in the operations of one or more key suppliers, or the failure of any key suppliers; an increasingly competitive labor market due to a sustained labor shortage or increased turnover caused by the COVID pandemic; the Company’s ability to meet commitments to customers on a timely basis as a result of increased costs and supply and transportation challenges; increased logistics costs; additional operating costs due to continued remote working arrangements 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; and the impact of the pandemic on the Company’s customers and dealers. The sustainability of the economic recovery from the pandemic remains unclear and significant volatility could continue for a prolonged period. These factors, and others that are currently unknown or considered immaterial, 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 the Company’s products and customer confidence and purchase decisions, financing and repayment practices, and the number and size of customer delinquencies and defaults. A debt crisis in Europe, Latin America, or elsewhere could negatively impact currencies, global financial markets, social and political stability, funding sources and costs, asset and obligation values, customers, suppliers, demand for equipment, and Company operations and results. The Company’s investment management activities could be impaired by changes in the equity, bond, and other financial markets, which would negatively affect earnings.
Additional 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; the potential default of the U.S. federal government if Congress fails to pass a 2022 budget resolution; governmental programs, policies, and tariffs for the benefit of certain industries or sectors; sanctions in particular jurisdictions, including those imposed in connection with the military confrontation between Russia and Ukraine; retaliatory actions to such changes in trade, banking, monetary, and fiscal policies; actions by central banks; actions by financial and securities regulators; actions by environmental, health, and safety regulatory agencies, including those related to engine emissions, carbon and other greenhouse gas emissions, noise, and the effects of climate change; changes to GPS radio frequency bands or their permitted uses; changes in labor and immigration regulations; changes to accounting standards; changes in tax rates, estimates, laws, and regulations and Company actions related thereto; changes to and compliance with privacy, banking, and other regulations; changes
38
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; and actions by other regulatory bodies.
Other factors that could materially affect the Company’s results include security breaches, cybersecurity attacks, technology failures, and other disruptions to the information technology infrastructure of the Company and its suppliers and dealers; security breaches with respect to the Company’s products; production, design, and technological innovations and difficulties, including capacity and supply constraints and prices; the loss of or challenges to intellectual property rights, whether through theft, infringement, counterfeiting, or otherwise; the availability and prices of strategically sourced materials, components, and whole goods; delays or disruptions in the Company’s supply chain or the loss of liquidity by suppliers; disruptions of infrastructures that support communications, operations, or distribution; the failure of customers, dealers, suppliers, or the Company to comply with laws, regulations, and Company policy pertaining to employment, human rights, health, safety, the environment, sanctions, export controls, anti-corruption, privacy and data protection, and other ethical business practices;introduction of legislation that could affect the Company’s business model and intellectual property, such as right to repair or right to modify; events that damage the Company’s reputation or brand; significant investigations, claims, lawsuits, or other legal proceedings; start-up of new plants and products; the success of new product initiatives or business strategies; changes in customer product preferences and sales mix; gaps or limitations in rural broadband coverage, capacity, and speed needed to support technology solutions; oil and energy prices, supplies, and volatility; the availability and cost of freight; actions of competitors in the various industries in which the Company competes, particularly price discounting; dealer practices, especially as to levels of new and used field inventories; changes in demand and pricing for used equipment and resulting impacts on lease residual values; labor relations and contracts, including work stoppages and other disruptions; changes in the ability to attract, develop, engage, and retain qualified personnel; acquisitions and divestitures of businesses; greater-than-anticipated transaction costs; the integration of new businesses; the failure or delay in closing or realizing anticipated benefits of acquisitions, joint ventures, or divestitures; the inability to deliver precision technology and agricultural solutions to customers; the implementation of the smart industrial operating model 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 enterprise resource planning systems; changes in Company-declared dividends and common stock issuances and repurchases; changes in the level and funding of employee retirement benefits; changes in market values of investment assets, compensation, retirement, discount, and mortality rates which impact retirement benefit costs; and significant changes in health care costs.
The liquidity and ongoing profitability of John Deere Capital Corporation and the Company’s other financial services subsidiaries depend largely on timely access to capital in order to meet future cash flow requirements, and to fund operations, costs, and purchases of the Company’s products. If general economic conditions deteriorate or capital markets become more volatile, 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 write-offs and provisions for credit losses.
The Company’s forward-looking statements are based upon assumptions relating to the factors described above, which are sometimes based upon estimates and data prepared by government agencies. Such estimates and data are often revised. The Company, except as required by law, undertakes no obligation to update or revise its forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new developments or otherwise. Further information concerning the Company and its businesses, including factors that could materially affect the Company’s financial results, is included in the Company’s other filings with the SEC (including, but not limited to, the factors discussed in Item 1A. Risk Factors“Risk Factors” of the Company’s most recent annual reportour Annual Report on Form 10-K and the Company’s subsequent quarterly reports on Form 10-Q)10-K).
Supplemental Consolidating Information
The supplemental consolidating data presented on the subsequent pages is presented for informational purposes. The equipment operations represents the enterprise without financial services. The equipment operations includes the Company’s production and precision agriculture operations, small agriculture and turf operations, construction and forestry operations, and other corporate assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses not reflected within financial services. Transactions between the “equipment operations”equipment operations and “financial services”financial services have been eliminated to arrive at the consolidated financial statements.
The equipment operations and financial services participate in different industries. The equipment operations primarily generate earnings and cash flows by manufacturing and distributingselling equipment, service parts, and technology solutions to dealers and retail customers. Financial services primarily finances sales and leases by dealers of new and used equipment that is largely manufactured by the Company. Those earnings and cash flows generally are the difference between the finance income received from customer payments less interest expense, and depreciation on equipment subject to an operating lease. The two businesses are capitalized differently and have separate performance metrics. The supplemental consolidating data is also used by management due to these differences.

Disclosure Pursuant to Section 13(r) of the Exchange Act.Not applicable.
Under Section 13(r) of the Exchange Act, the Company is required to disclose in its periodic reports if it or any of its affiliates knowingly conducted transactions or dealings with entities or individuals designated pursuant to certain executive orders issued by the U.S. government. On March 2, 2021, the U.S. Secretary of State designated the Russian Federal Security Service (FSB) as a blocked party under Executive Order 13382. On the same day, the U.S. Department of the Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control updated General License No. 1B to authorize certain transactions and activities with the FSB related to the importation, distribution, or use of certain information technology products in the Russian Federation. In the ordinary course of business, including during the three-month period ended January 30, 2022, certain of the Company’s subsidiaries requested and/or received legally required administrative notifications with the FSB in connection with the importation and/or use of certain of the Company’s products in the Russian Federation, as authorized by General License No. 1B. Neither the Company nor its subsidiaries made any payments, nor did they receive gross revenues or net profits, in connection with these activities. The Company expects that certain of its subsidiaries will continue to engage with the FSB in activities necessary to conduct business in the Russian Federation in accordance with applicable U.S. laws and regulations so long as it remains lawful to do so.
